Some quick scheduling notes. We 13 00:00:49,040 --> 00:00:52,519 Speaker 2: are off on Tuesday, not because I'm not working, but 14 00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:55,320 Speaker 2: because I'm actually working double duty on television. 15 00:00:55,360 --> 00:00:56,040 Speaker 3: On Tuesday. 16 00:00:56,440 --> 00:00:59,760 Speaker 2: Thursday, one week from today will be Diorra's last show 17 00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:02,440 Speaker 2: before she goes off to college and I have an 18 00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:07,680 Speaker 2: existential crisis. And then a week from Tuesday we will 19 00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:12,320 Speaker 2: be by Coastal on the What's Right Show because Demanse 20 00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:17,640 Speaker 2: will be back as promised for our football shows. In fact, 21 00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:22,280 Speaker 2: we will see a little sneak peak of Demonse's studio 22 00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:26,760 Speaker 2: in Los Angeles later in today's show, but before we 23 00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:29,120 Speaker 2: even get to any of today's show, and before we 24 00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:32,040 Speaker 2: get to what missed, some very breaking news in the 25 00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:36,880 Speaker 2: last ninety seconds that doesn't seem noteworthy, but it's noteworthy 26 00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:39,080 Speaker 2: to me, and I think it should be noteworthy if 27 00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:42,360 Speaker 2: you're a New York Giants fan or an Arizona Cardinals fan. 28 00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:46,720 Speaker 2: The Arizona Cardinals just traded Isaiah Simmons to kind of 29 00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:50,120 Speaker 2: do it all Swiss army knife. Is he a linebacker 30 00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:53,639 Speaker 2: or a corner or a safety? Former top ten pick 31 00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:57,440 Speaker 2: to the New York Giants for a seventh round pick. 32 00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:00,800 Speaker 2: I don't think that's enough value for Isaiah Simmons, a 33 00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:04,520 Speaker 2: player I like a lot. I also think the Giants 34 00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:07,680 Speaker 2: and Wink Martindale will use him in exotic fun ways. 35 00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:10,680 Speaker 2: And while I don't like the return on that for 36 00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:13,880 Speaker 2: the Cardinals, I do like the fact that they are 37 00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:19,600 Speaker 2: really going all in on bottoming out so they can 38 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:22,200 Speaker 2: get Caleb Williams. That part is smart. I think you 39 00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:24,880 Speaker 2: could have gotten more for Isaiah Simmons. I like Isaiah 40 00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:27,680 Speaker 2: Simmons now, he hasn't been a great pro. I loved 41 00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:30,680 Speaker 2: him in college. I loved the pick that obviously has 42 00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:32,600 Speaker 2: not worked out for them, a top ten pick being 43 00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 2: traded for a seventh rounder. But that's the breaking news 44 00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:39,239 Speaker 2: that just happened a few minutes ago. Here is what 45 00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:43,160 Speaker 2: missed the cut on today's show. Asia Wilson scores fifty 46 00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:49,359 Speaker 2: three ties, the WNBA record. She is spectacular. That Aces 47 00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:53,079 Speaker 2: team Van Gundy during the NBA playoffs said they could 48 00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:53,959 Speaker 2: go undefeated. 49 00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:55,839 Speaker 3: They didn't go undefeated. 50 00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:57,680 Speaker 2: But they are twenty seven and four and it sure 51 00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 2: looks like an Aces Liberty WNBA final. We've been on 52 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:05,040 Speaker 2: that collision course all year. Will Levis signs a disgusting 53 00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:09,520 Speaker 2: Mayo sponsorship, and Patrick Beverly once again calls me out 54 00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:14,760 Speaker 2: for something that was actually complimentary. I said on television, 55 00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:17,399 Speaker 2: I thought we'd see another Steph Curry before we see 56 00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:21,600 Speaker 2: another Magic Johnson. Patrick Beverley says, lies are detected. We'll 57 00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:24,520 Speaker 2: see another Steph Curry before we see another Magic Johnson 58 00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:28,400 Speaker 2: for a couple of very obvious reasons. One is Steph 59 00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:31,880 Speaker 2: Curry has inspired a generation of young people to try 60 00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:36,000 Speaker 2: to play like him. Another is it's been thirty years 61 00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:39,840 Speaker 2: since Magic retired. We haven't seen another Magic Johnson. And 62 00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:42,240 Speaker 2: all the people replying to the tweet saying, oh did 63 00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:45,000 Speaker 2: you not see Ben Simmons? Did you go watch some 64 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:45,880 Speaker 2: Magic Johnson? 65 00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:46,720 Speaker 3: You children? 66 00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:50,400 Speaker 2: And as far as we won't see another Patrick Beverley 67 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:53,360 Speaker 2: again either, unless you have Satellite Dish to let you 68 00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:54,800 Speaker 2: watch Russian basketball. 69 00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:55,760 Speaker 4: Now to the show. 70 00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:04,200 Speaker 2: So Trey Lance was not at practice yesterday as he 71 00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:11,680 Speaker 2: was demoted to the third string quarterback. And this story, 72 00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:17,040 Speaker 2: to me is so much bigger than whether or not 73 00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:20,440 Speaker 2: Trey Lance is a bust. And this is where I 74 00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:24,960 Speaker 2: want to start today's show, and I want to give 75 00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:29,440 Speaker 2: a bit of a history on Kyle Shanahan and then 76 00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:32,480 Speaker 2: the blow by blow of the San Francisco forty nine 77 00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:40,000 Speaker 2: ers to explain why I personally find this story so unfathomable. 78 00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:46,640 Speaker 2: So Kyle Shanahan, obviously his dad's Mike Shanahan. He comes 79 00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:50,880 Speaker 2: up with the Houston Texans, and those Houston Texans teams 80 00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:55,279 Speaker 2: had a clear ceiling. He was the offensive coordinator in 81 00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:57,719 Speaker 2: two thousand and eight and two thousand and nine, right 82 00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:00,240 Speaker 2: before I got to Houston, and they I had a 83 00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:04,960 Speaker 2: clear ceiling. Why because they had so much trouble getting 84 00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:10,520 Speaker 2: the quarterback position right. They eventually trade for Matt SHAWB 85 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:15,160 Speaker 2: and under SHAWB, they have some level of success. They're 86 00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:17,839 Speaker 2: not great, but they at least get to a level 87 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:22,720 Speaker 2: of relevance. Kyle Shanahan then goes to Washington. Washington has 88 00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:26,719 Speaker 2: a clear ceiling, and then they trade all those assets 89 00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:31,400 Speaker 2: to go get Robert Griffin. He has a dynamic rookie season. 90 00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:35,359 Speaker 2: They're a playoff team. They look like a legitimate I 91 00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:38,720 Speaker 2: don't want to say contender, but a legitimate They're like, Wow, 92 00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:42,919 Speaker 2: this is building something special. Robert then shreds his knee 93 00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:47,080 Speaker 2: and they go back to mediocrity there and Kyle Shanahan 94 00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:50,520 Speaker 2: moves on. He's in Cleveland for a year where once 95 00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:54,760 Speaker 2: again the quarterback position is the ceiling on the team. 96 00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:58,120 Speaker 2: And then he gets to Atlanta with Matt Ryan, the 97 00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:01,400 Speaker 2: best quarterback he's ever had the opportunity to work with, 98 00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:06,240 Speaker 2: and the Shanahan system plus a good Matt Ryan's not great, 99 00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:09,719 Speaker 2: but a good quarterback. A good quarterback plus the Shanahan 100 00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:15,200 Speaker 2: system resulted in an MVP and a Super Bowl appearance. 101 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:18,760 Speaker 2: Now they blew the Super Bowl, but that was where 102 00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:21,880 Speaker 2: Kyle Shanahan finally, for the first time in his career, 103 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:26,120 Speaker 2: got to taste what his system with a plus quarterback 104 00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:30,400 Speaker 2: could be and its league MVP and a Super Bowl appearance. 105 00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:34,560 Speaker 2: So he then gets the job in San Francisco, their 106 00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:39,360 Speaker 2: quarterback position is an unmitigated disaster, and late in his 107 00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:44,599 Speaker 2: first year they trade for Jimmy Garoppolo and with Jimmy 108 00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:50,640 Speaker 2: Garoppolo they have instant success. Now, the instant success is 109 00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:53,320 Speaker 2: they win a bunch of games at the end of 110 00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:58,440 Speaker 2: his first year. He then unfortunately blows out his knee 111 00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:01,800 Speaker 2: in week two of his second year. But then he's 112 00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:06,160 Speaker 2: healthy and Jimmy Garoppolo, who is the definition of a 113 00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:10,080 Speaker 2: mediocre quarterback, with that Shanahan system, they go to the 114 00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:14,480 Speaker 2: Super Bowl. The next year, Jimmy gets hurt again, they 115 00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:21,600 Speaker 2: have a bad season, and the very next year, after 116 00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:24,560 Speaker 2: Jimmy gets hurt again and they are sitting at number 117 00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:28,200 Speaker 2: twelve in the draft, they then have a decision, and 118 00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:32,640 Speaker 2: the decision is do we want to stay here at 119 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:36,840 Speaker 2: number twelve and draft a quarterback. Trey Lance could be 120 00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:40,400 Speaker 2: there at twelve, Justin Fields could be there at twelve. 121 00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:44,200 Speaker 2: Mac Jones could be there at twelve and move off 122 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:48,720 Speaker 2: of Jimmy because of the injuries, or do we think 123 00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:55,720 Speaker 2: we see a special quarterback that can allow Shanahan for 124 00:07:55,760 --> 00:08:02,680 Speaker 2: the first time since Matt Ryan in sixteen, have a 125 00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:08,520 Speaker 2: plus quarterback and see if this team can be a juggernaut. 126 00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:14,480 Speaker 2: They make the decision to trade up because they determine 127 00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:21,440 Speaker 2: Shanahan and Lynch determined that while this system with this roster. 128 00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:25,080 Speaker 3: Can be good with almost. 129 00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:30,560 Speaker 2: Anyone playing quarterback, if we have an excellent quarterback, we 130 00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:35,400 Speaker 2: can be amazing. And they pay a massive premium three 131 00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:39,000 Speaker 2: first round picks move from twelve to three. We then learned, 132 00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:42,040 Speaker 2: obviously they wanted to stand pat with Jimmy at quarterback, 133 00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:44,400 Speaker 2: they could have drafted Michael Parsons there. And if they 134 00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:46,559 Speaker 2: wanted to move off Jimmy at quarterback, they could have 135 00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:48,760 Speaker 2: drafted Mac Jones there. And I'm not talking about at three. 136 00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:53,679 Speaker 2: I'm talking about at twelve. They target Trey Lance. And 137 00:08:53,800 --> 00:09:00,120 Speaker 2: with targeting Trey Lance and his dozen career D two starts, 138 00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:04,760 Speaker 2: they say you're not going to play, You're not gonna 139 00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:08,040 Speaker 2: be our starter your rookie year. But he does get 140 00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:11,880 Speaker 2: some action. He comes in a game his rookie season 141 00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:17,960 Speaker 2: in Week four, plays really well against Seattle. Jimmy had 142 00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:21,000 Speaker 2: gotten hurt. He had one hundred and sixty yards on 143 00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:25,199 Speaker 2: eighteen attempts, two touchdowns, ran the ball well, It's like, okay, 144 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:29,480 Speaker 2: maybe something's here. He then starts the next week against Arizona, 145 00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:34,160 Speaker 2: plays terribly, so he has one good game in coming 146 00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:37,439 Speaker 2: in and reserved one bad game. Jimmy's then healthy again. 147 00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:41,760 Speaker 2: Trey Lance sits his rookie season for the next ten weeks. 148 00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:47,760 Speaker 2: Then week sixteen, Jimmy is out. Trey Lance starts against Houston, 149 00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:51,680 Speaker 2: albeit an obviously bad Houston team. Trey Lance plays really well, 150 00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:54,960 Speaker 2: a couple touchdowns, two hundred and fifty yards, complete seventy 151 00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:58,720 Speaker 2: percent of his passes, runs the ball for thirty yards, 152 00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:04,160 Speaker 2: and then goes back to the bench obviously because Jimmy's 153 00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:06,680 Speaker 2: healthy again, and they go to the NFC title game. 154 00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:08,720 Speaker 3: And after that. 155 00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:13,400 Speaker 2: First year of seeing Trey Lance, the San Francisco forty 156 00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:18,960 Speaker 2: nine ers, before the offseason even begins say publicly Jimmy 157 00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:23,520 Speaker 2: is done. Trey is our guy. They then try to 158 00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:27,199 Speaker 2: trade Jimmy. They can't. They bring him back on a 159 00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:31,160 Speaker 2: lesser deal as the backup. They also draft Brock Purty 160 00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:34,880 Speaker 2: after passing on him eight different times, with the final 161 00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:38,760 Speaker 2: pick of the seventh round, and Trey Lance plays Week 162 00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:43,240 Speaker 2: one in a torrential downbour in Chicago and plays terribly. 163 00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:47,480 Speaker 2: And then in week two, three plays into the game 164 00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:51,840 Speaker 2: or six plays into the game, breaks his leg and 165 00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:55,120 Speaker 2: can't practice obviously or play the rest of the year. 166 00:10:56,880 --> 00:11:01,200 Speaker 2: And then we get to this offseason and Brock purty understandably, 167 00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:04,920 Speaker 2: they're saying it's his job. Even though they spent all 168 00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:09,280 Speaker 2: that those resources on Trey. Brock was undefeated in games 169 00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:13,040 Speaker 2: he started and finished. They like what they have there, 170 00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:17,800 Speaker 2: They're giving him the job, so be it. That is reasonable. 171 00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:24,120 Speaker 2: And then in camp they bring in Sam Donald, who 172 00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:30,080 Speaker 2: has started around sixty games, has been awful at two 173 00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:34,840 Speaker 2: different stops, has as many touchdowns as interceptions, has a 174 00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:37,960 Speaker 2: bottom three NFL passer ratings since coming into the league. 175 00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:43,440 Speaker 2: And they talk up Sam Donald as the next Steve 176 00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:49,000 Speaker 2: Young something they really said. And yesterday they anoint Sam 177 00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:53,720 Speaker 2: Donald the backup and basically say Trey Lance is done here. 178 00:11:56,920 --> 00:12:00,840 Speaker 2: So before I get to how unpressed in it that is, 179 00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:07,840 Speaker 2: I want everyone to understand the decision flow. The decision 180 00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:14,800 Speaker 2: flow for Kyle Shanahan and John Lynch since Kyle got 181 00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:22,520 Speaker 2: to San Francisco has been we will trade significant assets 182 00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:27,480 Speaker 2: to get a difference maker at the quarterback position. We 183 00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:31,760 Speaker 2: will trade a second round pick and immediately give Jimmy 184 00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:37,520 Speaker 2: Garoppolo and his two career starts the biggest contract in 185 00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:42,439 Speaker 2: NFL history. We will then trade three first round picks 186 00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:47,920 Speaker 2: after making a super Bowl with Jimmy Garoppolo for another 187 00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:54,080 Speaker 2: quarterback we need to have a difference maker at that position. 188 00:12:55,200 --> 00:13:03,080 Speaker 2: We will then throw away with no return that player 189 00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:10,560 Speaker 2: after four career starts, after two full off seasons with 190 00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:14,079 Speaker 2: the team, one off season good enough to be named 191 00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:18,480 Speaker 2: the starter, the other offseason bad enough to be essentially 192 00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:23,000 Speaker 2: off the roster. Throw him away, not for Brock Purdy, 193 00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:29,560 Speaker 2: but for Sam Darnold. And now maybe the answer is 194 00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:34,000 Speaker 2: Trey Lance is simply that bad. That could be the answer. 195 00:13:34,760 --> 00:13:38,760 Speaker 2: What I am trying to tell you is he would 196 00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:44,600 Speaker 2: have to be worse than every first round quarterback drafted 197 00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:50,120 Speaker 2: in the last thirty years for this to be justified. 198 00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:53,040 Speaker 2: Because I went through it, and I'm gonna give it 199 00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:57,600 Speaker 2: to you right now. The biggest busts that we think 200 00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:04,120 Speaker 2: of over the last thirty years in the NFL, and 201 00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:09,880 Speaker 2: how much of a rope they got. Ryan Leaf started 202 00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:14,800 Speaker 2: twenty I'm started eighteen games with the San Diego Chargers. 203 00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:27,400 Speaker 2: Achilles Smith started seventeen games with the Cincinnati Bengals. Tim 204 00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:34,160 Speaker 2: Couch started fifty nine games with the Cleveland Browns. Joey 205 00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:41,200 Speaker 2: Harrington started two full regular seasons and a total. 206 00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:43,920 Speaker 4: Of twelve listen, what is that? 207 00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:53,920 Speaker 2: Fifty five games with the Detroit Lions. Patrick Ramsey remember him? 208 00:14:54,400 --> 00:14:55,040 Speaker 3: He started? 209 00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:58,160 Speaker 2: He was a late first round pick. Twenty four starts 210 00:14:58,160 --> 00:14:58,960 Speaker 2: with Washington. 211 00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:00,960 Speaker 4: J P. 212 00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:06,280 Speaker 2: Lossman, a late first round pick. Thirty three starts with Buffalo. 213 00:15:07,520 --> 00:15:13,000 Speaker 2: Jason Campbell, a mid first round pick. Fifty two starts 214 00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:20,680 Speaker 2: with Washington. Matt Liner, a mid first round pick. Seventeen 215 00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:26,080 Speaker 2: starts with Arizona. Brady Quinn, a late first round pick. 216 00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:32,480 Speaker 2: Twelve starts with Cleveland. Tim Tebow a late first round pick. 217 00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:38,280 Speaker 2: Fourteen starts with Denver. Jake Locker, an early first round 218 00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:44,240 Speaker 2: pick twenty three, starts with Tennessee. Blaine Gabbert, an early 219 00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:49,480 Speaker 2: first round pick. Twenty seven starts with Jacksonville. Christian Ponder 220 00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:55,960 Speaker 2: thirty six starts with Minnesota. E j Manuel seventeen starts 221 00:15:55,960 --> 00:16:02,840 Speaker 2: with Buffalo. Johnny Manzelle eight starts with Cleveland. 222 00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:07,280 Speaker 3: Josh Rosen. 223 00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:14,200 Speaker 2: Sixteen star I'm sorry thirteen starts with Arizona, Zach Wilson 224 00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:17,800 Speaker 2: twenty two starts with the Jets. 225 00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:19,480 Speaker 4: There is. 226 00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:27,120 Speaker 2: One guy since Jim Drunken Miller who has gotten as 227 00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:31,320 Speaker 2: short of a leash as Trey Lance. Paxton Lynch in Denver, 228 00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:36,040 Speaker 2: who was a late first round pick, got four starts, 229 00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:42,280 Speaker 2: was awful across the board, with nothing redeeming from any 230 00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:45,800 Speaker 2: of them. Trey Lance was third pick of the draft. 231 00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:51,520 Speaker 2: So I am not saying that he has to start over, 232 00:16:53,920 --> 00:16:59,120 Speaker 2: uh brock perty. What I am saying unequivocally is this, 233 00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:05,920 Speaker 2: if you draft trade up to draft a D two 234 00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:10,000 Speaker 2: player who did not even play his last year of 235 00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:15,000 Speaker 2: college football, see enough from him in your building as 236 00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:18,840 Speaker 2: a rookie to get rid of want try to get 237 00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:23,400 Speaker 2: rid of Jimmy Garoppolo and anoint him your starter. He 238 00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:28,600 Speaker 2: then plays a game and less than a quarter and 239 00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:33,440 Speaker 2: breaks his leg, and now you're ready to cut bait entirely. 240 00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:41,000 Speaker 2: You don't know what you're doing. Your quarterback evaluation process 241 00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:48,480 Speaker 2: is irrevocably broken. And the idea that you now have 242 00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:53,679 Speaker 2: simply discovered gold and Brock Birdie, maybe you did, But 243 00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:59,280 Speaker 2: as I said on television yesterday, if you drive your 244 00:17:59,359 --> 00:18:01,920 Speaker 2: car a one hundred miles an hour off a cliff, 245 00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:08,840 Speaker 2: survive the crash and land next to buried treasure, and 246 00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:13,440 Speaker 2: become wildly wealthy. You don't get credit for that. You're 247 00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:19,320 Speaker 2: not a genius for that. It was an idiotic, indefensible 248 00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:25,119 Speaker 2: process that you ended up somehow lucking out on. And 249 00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:30,720 Speaker 2: I do not think mister irrelevant coming off. Tommy John 250 00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:36,320 Speaker 2: Surgery is going to be the player that the Niners 251 00:18:36,359 --> 00:18:41,679 Speaker 2: think he can be. And I know Sam Darnald is 252 00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:48,320 Speaker 2: not anyone savior. And if you two years ago loved 253 00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:51,200 Speaker 2: Trey Lance enough to trade up for him, and one 254 00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:54,240 Speaker 2: year ago loved him enough to name him your starter, 255 00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:58,600 Speaker 2: and today think he's worse than Sam Darnald, then you 256 00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:07,760 Speaker 2: don't know what you're doing. Moving on, Chris Jones hold 257 00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:11,600 Speaker 2: out might last until week eight. I went on television 258 00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:14,960 Speaker 2: and said, this is great news. Everyone made fun of me. 259 00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:19,080 Speaker 2: I stand by it. As long as Chris Jones is 260 00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:23,560 Speaker 2: going to be back, the Chiefs are fine. As it happens, 261 00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:28,600 Speaker 2: all of the Chief's hardest games, except for the visit 262 00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:32,200 Speaker 2: to Royalty playing the Prince in week two, are after 263 00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:35,560 Speaker 2: week seven. All three of their divisional road games are 264 00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:39,120 Speaker 2: after week seven. The Bills game the Bengals game, the 265 00:19:39,119 --> 00:19:44,080 Speaker 2: Eagles game, the Dolphins game. Those are all after Week seven, 266 00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:48,840 Speaker 2: so the Chiefs will be fine. Also, I think Chris 267 00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:51,240 Speaker 2: Jones will be there for Week one. I think he'll 268 00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:54,560 Speaker 2: get a new contract the Chiefs want to. This is 269 00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:57,840 Speaker 2: not a situation where the Chiefs don't want to pay him. 270 00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:00,600 Speaker 2: They've said they want to pay him. So it'd be 271 00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:02,560 Speaker 2: one thing that the Chiefs were like, listen, you're under contract, 272 00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:05,520 Speaker 2: you got to play for us. They want to pay him. 273 00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:08,520 Speaker 2: And once he missed the first day of training camp, 274 00:20:08,560 --> 00:20:10,520 Speaker 2: it was almost a fourgone conclusion he was going to 275 00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:13,400 Speaker 2: miss all of the days of training camp. Now would 276 00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:15,840 Speaker 2: I like him in camp, Sure, but I'm sure the 277 00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:20,000 Speaker 2: Niners would like Nick boson camp. Everyone expects Bosa to 278 00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:21,760 Speaker 2: be on the Niners this year and Chris Jones to 279 00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:26,560 Speaker 2: be on the Chiefs. Now, does this impact their relationship 280 00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:27,600 Speaker 2: with Chris Jones? 281 00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:28,080 Speaker 4: Maybe? 282 00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:32,320 Speaker 2: Does this impact their ability to keep him long term? Possibly, 283 00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:35,960 Speaker 2: But the fact that Chris Jones has shown up to 284 00:20:37,040 --> 00:20:40,119 Speaker 2: I think it was the spis with the Chiefs. The 285 00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:42,240 Speaker 2: fact that he said he wants to win Defensive Player 286 00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:45,320 Speaker 2: of the Year, the fact that he is saying the 287 00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:49,320 Speaker 2: longest he would hold out is two months. I don't 288 00:20:49,320 --> 00:20:52,080 Speaker 2: think it's bad news for the Chiefs at all, and 289 00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:56,840 Speaker 2: I think they can weather those first seven games. Next 290 00:20:57,480 --> 00:21:01,199 Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers and Hard Knocks, Randall Cobb was telling the 291 00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:04,439 Speaker 2: receivers that if Rogers doesn't trust you, you won't throw you 292 00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:10,200 Speaker 2: the ball. Then Corey Davis retired. What does this mean 293 00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:13,600 Speaker 2: for the Packers. I'm sorry for the Jets. The producers 294 00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:21,200 Speaker 2: are asking, well, here's the thing, on. 295 00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:21,280 Speaker 3: Only throwing the receivers he trusts. 296 00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:26,320 Speaker 2: I understand that can work when you have Davante, when 297 00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:29,120 Speaker 2: you have a younger Randall Cobb, when you have Jordan Nelson, 298 00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:32,720 Speaker 2: when you have Greg Jennings, when you have totally new team, 299 00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:38,199 Speaker 2: totally new teammates, young receivers. I don't know that that 300 00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:45,280 Speaker 2: is the definite right approach, but that is what it is. 301 00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:49,359 Speaker 2: My bigger takeaway there from that Hard Knocks clip was 302 00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:52,080 Speaker 2: not the he won't throw it to you if he 303 00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:59,359 Speaker 2: doesn't trust you. It was actually the it was Aaron 304 00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:07,679 Speaker 2: doesn't like throwing interceptions, and that sounds like an obvious 305 00:22:07,720 --> 00:22:15,880 Speaker 2: good thing. I would argue Aaron's allergy to interceptions has 306 00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:23,440 Speaker 2: actually been a slight detriment I think that there are 307 00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:29,560 Speaker 2: times where and interception. There are times where interception literally 308 00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:31,440 Speaker 2: is the worst thing quarterback can do in the red 309 00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:34,320 Speaker 2: zone or you know, on first and ten, things like that. 310 00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:39,120 Speaker 2: There are also times where the risk is worth the 311 00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:43,640 Speaker 2: reward for what a big play can do for your team. 312 00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:47,840 Speaker 2: And I do think it is noteworthy that we have 313 00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:56,280 Speaker 2: talked for years about how the most dangerous play in 314 00:22:56,320 --> 00:23:01,000 Speaker 2: the NFL is the Aaron Rodgers free play, because that's 315 00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:03,560 Speaker 2: when he does and now a lot of quarterbacks do this, 316 00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:06,320 Speaker 2: but follow me here. You get a team to jump 317 00:23:06,320 --> 00:23:09,280 Speaker 2: off sides, so even if you throw a pick, even 318 00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:11,479 Speaker 2: if the play goes terribly, he just gets wiped away 319 00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:16,600 Speaker 2: and he takes a chance. Obviously, Aaron throughout his career 320 00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:20,600 Speaker 2: has had a great deep ball, has been able to 321 00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:21,719 Speaker 2: make every throw. 322 00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:25,320 Speaker 3: And I do think maybe a few. 323 00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:32,760 Speaker 2: More risks, a few more chances could be good because 324 00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:37,639 Speaker 2: you are going to get some more big plays that 325 00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:41,520 Speaker 2: particularly we're lacking for the Packers last year, and the 326 00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:45,760 Speaker 2: Jets obviously been lacking their entire their entire run. I 327 00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:48,600 Speaker 2: think it is noteworthy, and again I'm not trying to 328 00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:52,080 Speaker 2: take a shot at Aaron here that I mean, he 329 00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:54,959 Speaker 2: has the lowest interception rate I think in NFL history. 330 00:23:55,880 --> 00:24:00,880 Speaker 2: Peyton Manning played seventeen years in the NFL. He had 331 00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:06,000 Speaker 2: double digit interceptions sixteen of them, and the one year 332 00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:11,400 Speaker 2: he didn't he had nine. Patrick Mahomes has played five 333 00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:16,119 Speaker 2: years in the NFL. He's thrown double digit interceptions three 334 00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:24,040 Speaker 2: of those five. Tom Brady played twenty one years as 335 00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:31,320 Speaker 2: a starting quarterback. He had double digit interceptions one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, 336 00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:37,560 Speaker 2: nine twelve times of his twenty one years. Those are 337 00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:42,160 Speaker 2: the three greatest quarterbacks ever, Brady, Montana and Mahomes. I'm 338 00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:46,000 Speaker 2: sorry Brady Manning and Mahomes Montana. If I were to 339 00:24:46,080 --> 00:24:48,480 Speaker 2: look now, that is a different era. I'm not sure 340 00:24:48,520 --> 00:24:52,280 Speaker 2: it's totally fair, but I'll look at it. Montana had 341 00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:55,160 Speaker 2: double digit interceptions in. 342 00:24:56,720 --> 00:24:58,679 Speaker 3: Nine of his fifteen years. 343 00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:04,680 Speaker 2: Aaron it's been three years in his career, his first 344 00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:09,040 Speaker 2: year as a starter, the year they won the Super Bowl, 345 00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:15,840 Speaker 2: and last year. And so I think that the allergy 346 00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:20,439 Speaker 2: to throwing picks can be good if you're getting on 347 00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:24,919 Speaker 2: the Josh Allen reckless scale. For Aaron this year, I 348 00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:28,000 Speaker 2: think a few more picks than his normal might not 349 00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:32,960 Speaker 2: be a bad thing. All right next. Steph said Luca 350 00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:37,080 Speaker 2: was up next. The producers say, how can Luca be 351 00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:39,280 Speaker 2: next if he can't even make the playoffs? All right, 352 00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:47,439 Speaker 2: this is where Lebron has spoiled all of you. It's 353 00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:54,320 Speaker 2: it's relatively normal for great, great players at some point 354 00:25:54,320 --> 00:25:57,600 Speaker 2: in their career to miss the playoffs. Kobe missed the 355 00:25:57,640 --> 00:26:01,480 Speaker 2: playoffs and the debt smack dab of his prime. Steph 356 00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:05,280 Speaker 2: missed the playoffs the two years prior to them winning 357 00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:07,520 Speaker 2: the most recent title. One year he was out most 358 00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:09,760 Speaker 2: of the year, fine the other year he was playing, 359 00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:14,920 Speaker 2: he missed the playoffs. Kg missed the playoffs in Minnesota. 360 00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:18,800 Speaker 2: Duncan never missed the playoffs. Obviously, it's part of his greatness. 361 00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:21,879 Speaker 2: Magic never missed the playoffs. It's part of his greatness. 362 00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:26,200 Speaker 2: Lebron never missed the playoffs up until the latter stage. Well, 363 00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:28,760 Speaker 2: that's not true. Lebron missed the playoffs the first two 364 00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:30,920 Speaker 2: years of his career when he's very young, and then 365 00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:34,240 Speaker 2: with the Lakers. But during the entire run of prime, 366 00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:37,920 Speaker 2: Lebron never missed the playoffs. Luca missing the playoffs one 367 00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:43,960 Speaker 2: year does not disqualify him from being up next. Now, 368 00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:48,000 Speaker 2: I guess the reason Steph is saying Luca is up 369 00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:52,679 Speaker 2: next is because Jannis and Joker he's saying, are right now, 370 00:26:53,720 --> 00:26:58,280 Speaker 2: and Luca does have some up next competition. But let's 371 00:26:58,359 --> 00:27:03,720 Speaker 2: not forget please, that were a year removed, Luca dragging 372 00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:06,879 Speaker 2: a team that didn't have another top sixty player in 373 00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:10,960 Speaker 2: the league to the Western Conference finals. And last year, 374 00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:13,199 Speaker 2: for as much as we want to put on my 375 00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:18,680 Speaker 2: large adult Slovenian sons head, last year, Luca did average 376 00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:22,520 Speaker 2: thirty two nine to eight and was first team All NBA. 377 00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:26,639 Speaker 2: One of the craziest stats, by the way, in the 378 00:27:26,800 --> 00:27:31,440 Speaker 2: NBA is that Luka Doncic has as many first Team 379 00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:37,000 Speaker 2: All NBA appearances as Steph Curry. Luca's been first Team 380 00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:41,080 Speaker 2: All NBA four times. Steph's been first Team All NBA 381 00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:45,600 Speaker 2: four times. It seems impossible to be true, but you 382 00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:49,080 Speaker 2: can look it up. I promise you it's true. He 383 00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:53,560 Speaker 2: has four He's played in the league five years. He's 384 00:27:53,560 --> 00:27:56,520 Speaker 2: been first Team All NBA four of those five. All right, 385 00:27:56,600 --> 00:28:03,879 Speaker 2: last one, this sucks show might have to have his 386 00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:10,280 Speaker 2: second Tommy John surgery. Everybody is talking about what this 387 00:28:10,359 --> 00:28:14,439 Speaker 2: means for his contract and that obviously, I mean, this 388 00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:17,760 Speaker 2: could be I don't know who said it, but someone 389 00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:21,679 Speaker 2: tweeted his most expensive elbow injury ever. It also is 390 00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:25,000 Speaker 2: just devastating for baseball fans. It's devastating for show Hey. 391 00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:28,960 Speaker 2: This would be his second Tommy John surgery had another 392 00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:32,199 Speaker 2: one five years ago. The producers asked, sayes this mean 393 00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:36,119 Speaker 2: it's impossible to do what he's trying to do. Here's 394 00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:41,760 Speaker 2: the thing. I don't know enough about UCL injuries, but 395 00:28:42,040 --> 00:28:47,680 Speaker 2: I don't think, maybe I'm wrong, that him doing double 396 00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:51,120 Speaker 2: duty has anything to do with this. I don't think 397 00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:55,040 Speaker 2: the fact that he bats when he's not pitching led 398 00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:58,920 Speaker 2: to the elbow injury. I do think that there is 399 00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:03,360 Speaker 2: obviously an epidemic amongst throwing arm injuries in the modern 400 00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:06,520 Speaker 2: baseball player. My pal Jeff Passen wrote a whole book 401 00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:10,360 Speaker 2: about it. No one has figured it out, but I 402 00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:15,160 Speaker 2: give show Hey credit man for I mean, this was 403 00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:19,040 Speaker 2: the ultimate bet on himself deal. But this is the 404 00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:22,479 Speaker 2: downside to it. I mean, this could be they were 405 00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:23,120 Speaker 2: talking about. 406 00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:23,800 Speaker 4: Him getting. 407 00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:32,080 Speaker 2: Twelve years, eight hundred million dollars and the Angels obviously 408 00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:34,880 Speaker 2: are just cursed. It would appear and for show Hey, 409 00:29:34,920 --> 00:29:39,760 Speaker 2: this is absolutely brutal, and I do wonder if this 410 00:29:39,880 --> 00:29:42,400 Speaker 2: means he just won't pitch anymore, if you'll just be 411 00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:44,400 Speaker 2: a hitter, and he's one of the three or four 412 00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:46,560 Speaker 2: best hitters in the sport anyway, some would argue he's 413 00:29:46,600 --> 00:29:49,080 Speaker 2: the best. I'm not sure what this means for him. 414 00:29:49,280 --> 00:29:51,280 Speaker 2: This is not my area of expertise. I know for 415 00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:56,480 Speaker 2: sports fans, Shoe Otani was absolutely mussy and this sucks 416 00:29:56,520 --> 00:30:00,000 Speaker 2: for them and sucks for him. It's a bad, bad name, 417 00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:03,200 Speaker 2: news man, and it's something nobody wanted to hear.

You know, you 465 00:32:44,160 --> 00:32:46,600 Speaker 6: know a lot of stuff that goes online the scenes. 466 00:32:47,200 --> 00:32:48,280 Speaker 3: So I have no clue. 467 00:32:48,400 --> 00:32:52,400 Speaker 2: I just show up looking great, amazing opinions and all 468 00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:54,360 Speaker 2: these things show up on the screen and. 469 00:32:54,520 --> 00:32:55,760 Speaker 3: It's all you guys doing it. 470 00:32:55,800 --> 00:32:56,160 Speaker 4: Okay. 471 00:32:56,560 --> 00:32:59,800 Speaker 2: So, as a and this is a sneak preview also 472 00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:02,000 Speaker 2: a bit of a test, we're gonna see how the 473 00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:04,720 Speaker 2: audio sounds, making sure everything works. It sounds a little 474 00:33:04,760 --> 00:33:06,040 Speaker 2: echoee in my ear. 475 00:33:06,160 --> 00:33:06,640 Speaker 4: I hope it. 476 00:33:06,600 --> 00:33:09,560 Speaker 2: Doesn't for the actual audience, but that's not the Well, 477 00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:12,400 Speaker 2: this is why we're doing it here. But in honor 478 00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:17,200 Speaker 2: of Demonse being back, we're gonna do one topic together. 479 00:33:18,040 --> 00:33:20,520 Speaker 2: And I had all of the things that we could 480 00:33:20,640 --> 00:33:24,000 Speaker 2: choose from, and I was like, well, the US Open does. 481 00:33:23,880 --> 00:33:25,520 Speaker 3: Start here in New York pretty soon. 482 00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:29,920 Speaker 2: But Demonse does not like the tennis corner, and in fact, 483 00:33:29,960 --> 00:33:32,160 Speaker 2: the only thing I think he likes less than the 484 00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:37,360 Speaker 2: tennis corner is the golf corner. So with that said, Demonse, 485 00:33:37,880 --> 00:33:40,080 Speaker 2: I think we're talking golfers and gamblers. 486 00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:41,320 Speaker 3: Go right ahead some. 487 00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:45,120 Speaker 6: Time for a little special edition of Nick Makes It Right. 488 00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:49,080 Speaker 6: So John Rahm and Max Holmes said, spectators talking or 489 00:33:49,120 --> 00:33:53,200 Speaker 6: talking about gambling has become rampant on the tour, and 490 00:33:53,560 --> 00:33:56,520 Speaker 6: a gambler recently interfered with a pro am golfer because 491 00:33:56,520 --> 00:33:59,680 Speaker 6: of a bet. Uh, it's toime for Dick makes it Right. 492 00:34:00,360 --> 00:34:03,200 Speaker 6: Is this a serious issue or should these pro athletes 493 00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:03,920 Speaker 6: stop complaining? 494 00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:06,040 Speaker 4: Oh? 495 00:34:06,160 --> 00:34:07,560 Speaker 2: I think it's a I mean, I don't know if 496 00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:10,080 Speaker 2: I would call it a serious issue, but I don't mind. 497 00:34:10,160 --> 00:34:14,080 Speaker 2: I don't think they're complaining. I think that there are. 498 00:34:14,800 --> 00:34:19,080 Speaker 2: I think the if there is, and this is gonna 499 00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:22,480 Speaker 2: be really hard for golf and tennis. Your two favorites 500 00:34:22,520 --> 00:34:29,279 Speaker 2: demons in particular, which is there is an expected and 501 00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:36,120 Speaker 2: understood decorum about noise during play. So like, if I 502 00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:40,000 Speaker 2: have a bet on Steph Kerr is six step out 503 00:34:40,040 --> 00:34:43,600 Speaker 2: of it on under twenty four and a half points 504 00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:47,040 Speaker 2: for Anthony Edwards, and he's at the free throw line 505 00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:49,839 Speaker 2: with a minute left, and I yell because I want 506 00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:53,520 Speaker 2: him to miss. He's used to that. People are always yelling, 507 00:34:53,560 --> 00:34:55,560 Speaker 2: you know what I mean. That's not going to have 508 00:34:55,600 --> 00:35:01,759 Speaker 2: a tangible impact golfers and tennis players. You're silent while 509 00:35:01,800 --> 00:35:05,400 Speaker 2: they're actually playing. And that with a guy did shank 510 00:35:05,480 --> 00:35:08,560 Speaker 2: it in in the pro am Steph Curry won, a 511 00:35:08,640 --> 00:35:12,120 Speaker 2: guy shanked it on eighteen and the guy who yelled 512 00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:15,440 Speaker 2: had a bet against him. So I do think this 513 00:35:15,520 --> 00:35:19,080 Speaker 2: could actually be a problem in that guy's going out 514 00:35:19,080 --> 00:35:23,160 Speaker 2: there and trying to directly impact. Uh. You know, they're wagers, 515 00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:26,520 Speaker 2: and I know people have been gambling forever, but people 516 00:35:26,560 --> 00:35:30,799 Speaker 2: weren't gambling as regularly, and they certainly weren't gambling on 517 00:35:31,280 --> 00:35:34,240 Speaker 2: what I would call Nietzsch events is regularly Like golf, 518 00:35:34,440 --> 00:35:36,719 Speaker 2: people were always gambling on football and basketball. 519 00:35:36,960 --> 00:35:38,000 Speaker 3: So go ahead, your take. 520 00:35:38,360 --> 00:35:41,600 Speaker 6: You got to call the hotline if you're out here 521 00:35:41,640 --> 00:35:47,120 Speaker 6: betting golf. In my opinion, I say that the golfers 522 00:35:47,320 --> 00:35:51,360 Speaker 6: should just do better under pressure. In my opinion, you 523 00:35:51,440 --> 00:35:56,640 Speaker 6: want just go ahead, go ahead, but one guy screams 524 00:35:56,719 --> 00:35:59,000 Speaker 6: and and you shank it. Hey, dude, be better. I mean, 525 00:35:59,040 --> 00:36:00,800 Speaker 6: you're you're a pro am golf off for a reason. 526 00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:04,400 Speaker 6: But you know, I get things have always gone a 527 00:36:04,400 --> 00:36:07,160 Speaker 6: certain way. But uh, I don't know, man. 528 00:36:07,360 --> 00:36:10,320 Speaker 2: I don't think they're gonna change it with golf. I 529 00:36:10,719 --> 00:36:13,360 Speaker 2: think golf and tennis it's still gonna be silent. 530 00:36:13,680 --> 00:36:13,919 Speaker 3: Now. 531 00:36:13,960 --> 00:36:16,719 Speaker 2: At tennis, they'll just replay the point. There's a you 532 00:36:16,760 --> 00:36:20,040 Speaker 2: gotta look it up. There's an unbelievable video from about 533 00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:22,800 Speaker 2: a week and a half ago of a tennis match 534 00:36:23,320 --> 00:36:26,640 Speaker 2: and mid point, the person in charge of the end 535 00:36:26,719 --> 00:36:30,680 Speaker 2: stadium music all of a sudden turns on Cotton Eye Joe, 536 00:36:31,440 --> 00:36:31,919 Speaker 2: Where did. 537 00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:33,839 Speaker 3: You come from? Where did you go? That song it is? 538 00:36:33,920 --> 00:36:38,879 Speaker 2: And both both players just stopped immediately, like we can't 539 00:36:38,920 --> 00:36:41,720 Speaker 2: be expected to play under these circumstances, and the umpire 540 00:36:41,840 --> 00:36:45,000 Speaker 2: was like replay the point, like everyone understood, like we're 541 00:36:45,040 --> 00:36:47,480 Speaker 2: not playing with Cotton Eye Joe in the background. 542 00:36:47,760 --> 00:36:50,920 Speaker 6: So that's the that's a different scenario. In my opinion, 543 00:36:50,960 --> 00:36:52,160 Speaker 6: it's a lot different. 544 00:36:53,360 --> 00:36:57,080 Speaker 2: One guy screen, different scenario, one guy streaming versus the thing. 545 00:36:57,400 --> 00:36:58,600 Speaker 4: But I'm golf. 546 00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:08,320 Speaker 2: I do think that they this could be a significant issue. 547 00:37:08,920 --> 00:37:11,120 Speaker 2: And I do think golf is going to have to 548 00:37:11,200 --> 00:37:15,400 Speaker 2: determine whether or not you are going to get a 549 00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:24,160 Speaker 2: do over if someone yells in your backswing, because it absolutely. 550 00:37:23,040 --> 00:37:24,240 Speaker 3: Impacts these guys. 551 00:37:25,080 --> 00:37:29,600 Speaker 2: And while it always was possible, but back when Tiger 552 00:37:29,920 --> 00:37:36,120 Speaker 2: was apex Tiger, people always wanted to be the first 553 00:37:36,160 --> 00:37:39,560 Speaker 2: one to yell get in the hole, like make it 554 00:37:39,640 --> 00:37:40,440 Speaker 2: on a drive or. 555 00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:41,040 Speaker 3: Something like that. 556 00:37:41,560 --> 00:37:46,520 Speaker 2: And occasionally someone would jump the gun a bit and 557 00:37:46,640 --> 00:37:50,200 Speaker 2: Tiger would get furious because he'd flinch a bit in 558 00:37:50,239 --> 00:37:53,279 Speaker 2: his swing and he'd shank it. And so but that 559 00:37:53,480 --> 00:37:56,279 Speaker 2: you really didn't have to worry about it because it 560 00:37:56,360 --> 00:37:59,040 Speaker 2: was just a one off thing. If people are all 561 00:37:59,080 --> 00:38:03,960 Speaker 2: of a sudden gambling at these events and have a chance, like, 562 00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:06,120 Speaker 2: who cares if I get thrown out, if it means 563 00:38:06,120 --> 00:38:08,880 Speaker 2: I win my bet, if I can force you, I 564 00:38:09,640 --> 00:38:10,680 Speaker 2: think it's a real thing. 565 00:38:11,040 --> 00:38:14,080 Speaker 6: I know you just got a question, So I know 566 00:38:14,200 --> 00:38:16,440 Speaker 6: Steph did a lot of golfing stuff over the summer. 567 00:38:16,640 --> 00:38:20,000 Speaker 6: Was was that a silent golfing event? Or is Steph 568 00:38:20,080 --> 00:38:23,080 Speaker 6: Curry like the best golfer ever? No? 569 00:38:23,320 --> 00:38:25,880 Speaker 2: So that, well, Steph is great this event where this happened, 570 00:38:25,880 --> 00:38:30,560 Speaker 2: Steph won it. Steph is a could be a pro golfer. 571 00:38:31,120 --> 00:38:35,160 Speaker 2: It's you are allowed to make noise after the swing, 572 00:38:35,640 --> 00:38:40,760 Speaker 2: and people just not at once they've approached the ball 573 00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:44,200 Speaker 2: and are doing their practice swing and the actual swing. 574 00:38:44,560 --> 00:38:45,439 Speaker 3: And that's why I was saying. 575 00:38:45,440 --> 00:38:48,160 Speaker 2: What happened to Tiger is people wanted to make noise 576 00:38:48,239 --> 00:38:50,560 Speaker 2: the moment he hit it, and. 577 00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:52,160 Speaker 3: Sometimes people would jump the gun. 578 00:38:52,640 --> 00:38:55,440 Speaker 2: That what happened to this guy was as soon as 579 00:38:55,480 --> 00:38:59,239 Speaker 2: he was about to hit it, someone intentionally yelled to 580 00:38:59,400 --> 00:39:02,240 Speaker 2: shock him, and he shanked it and lost the tournament. 581 00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:05,240 Speaker 2: All right, listen, you have to get to your actual job. 582 00:39:05,560 --> 00:39:08,759 Speaker 2: This is great golf discussion. I can't wait. You better, 583 00:39:08,800 --> 00:39:12,520 Speaker 2: by the way, you better be ready. In twelve days, 584 00:39:12,880 --> 00:39:15,240 Speaker 2: we'll be will be at I think the semi finals 585 00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:20,960 Speaker 2: of the US Open. Oh boy, Alcarez an adult, Alcarez, Djokovic, 586 00:39:21,440 --> 00:39:26,200 Speaker 2: Oh man, I'm going to it. You're your play. Uncle 587 00:39:26,320 --> 00:39:29,160 Speaker 2: karm is staying with me. He's coming to New York 588 00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:30,799 Speaker 2: so we can go to the US Open together. He's 589 00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:31,920 Speaker 2: staying in your room. 590 00:39:32,640 --> 00:39:35,839 Speaker 6: Huge, Huge, that's awesome, man, til karm I said, what's up. 591 00:39:36,120 --> 00:39:38,520 Speaker 6: It's gonna be unfortunate that I'm missing that great match. 592 00:39:38,920 --> 00:39:41,799 Speaker 6: I am in a golf league at work. I've yet 593 00:39:41,840 --> 00:39:44,560 Speaker 6: to play my first game, but I'm supposed to be 594 00:39:44,600 --> 00:39:47,400 Speaker 6: playing it here pretty soon. We just got to reserve 595 00:39:47,440 --> 00:39:52,120 Speaker 6: a first Yeah. Uh no, we're just I might go 596 00:39:52,280 --> 00:39:55,040 Speaker 6: to top Golf this weekend, and you know, go to time. 597 00:39:55,840 --> 00:39:58,640 Speaker 2: I think you'd love top golf, first of all, and 598 00:39:58,760 --> 00:40:03,560 Speaker 2: second of all, frustrated, I think you'll naturally be pretty good. 599 00:40:04,400 --> 00:40:05,080 Speaker 4: You have really the. 600 00:40:05,120 --> 00:40:10,560 Speaker 2: HANDI coordination, You're tall and strong. I just I think 601 00:40:10,680 --> 00:40:15,000 Speaker 2: you're naturally going to pick up on it pretty quickly. 602 00:40:15,800 --> 00:40:18,080 Speaker 2: Uh And I think you'll be a pretty good golfer. 603 00:40:18,120 --> 00:40:21,359 Speaker 2: All right, Well, get to work. There's demons. He's back 604 00:40:21,400 --> 00:40:24,879 Speaker 2: in twelve days. We now play, thank you. We now 605 00:40:24,960 --> 00:40:29,000 Speaker 2: play a new game called the Deciding Factor, where I'm 606 00:40:29,080 --> 00:40:33,640 Speaker 2: going to make a case four against a teamer player 607 00:40:33,640 --> 00:40:36,680 Speaker 2: and what their X factor is. The Miami Dolphins. Miami 608 00:40:36,719 --> 00:40:39,080 Speaker 2: made it the playoffs last year despite injuries at quarterback. 609 00:40:39,320 --> 00:40:41,719 Speaker 2: Will they be able to take the next step this year? 610 00:40:41,800 --> 00:40:42,440 Speaker 4: Why why not? 611 00:40:42,560 --> 00:40:45,080 Speaker 2: And what's their X factor? This one's very very simple. 612 00:40:45,520 --> 00:40:49,560 Speaker 2: Why they could is Vic fangio on is the defensive 613 00:40:49,600 --> 00:40:53,200 Speaker 2: coordinator and Tua stays healthy. Why they wouldn't is if 614 00:40:53,280 --> 00:40:56,960 Speaker 2: Tua gets banged up again and the X factor is 615 00:40:57,000 --> 00:41:01,839 Speaker 2: twas health. That's very simple. I mean, the Dolphins are 616 00:41:01,960 --> 00:41:07,600 Speaker 2: not a difficult team to handicap. It's whether or not 617 00:41:08,360 --> 00:41:11,759 Speaker 2: Tua can play sixteen to seventeen games, or hell call 618 00:41:11,800 --> 00:41:15,080 Speaker 2: it if you could play fourteen games McDaniels, I think 619 00:41:15,120 --> 00:41:18,120 Speaker 2: an excellent offensive mind. We know how many weapons they 620 00:41:18,160 --> 00:41:21,400 Speaker 2: have on offense. I know Jalen Ramsey's out now for 621 00:41:21,440 --> 00:41:24,399 Speaker 2: them defensively, but that defense still got better. And Vic 622 00:41:24,440 --> 00:41:29,280 Speaker 2: Fangio's great. If two is healthy, they win that division. 623 00:41:30,600 --> 00:41:32,759 Speaker 2: And I don't think two is great, but I don't 624 00:41:32,800 --> 00:41:34,640 Speaker 2: think he has to be great. If he's healthy, they 625 00:41:34,680 --> 00:41:37,279 Speaker 2: win that division, all right. Next, Trevor Lawrence to win 626 00:41:37,400 --> 00:41:38,920 Speaker 2: MVPs plus fifteen hundred? 627 00:41:39,000 --> 00:41:40,880 Speaker 4: Will he win it? Why? Why not? 628 00:41:41,040 --> 00:41:42,320 Speaker 3: And what is the X factor? 629 00:41:42,920 --> 00:41:47,560 Speaker 2: Why he would win it? Is because they're gonna win 630 00:41:47,640 --> 00:41:51,000 Speaker 2: thirteen games and he's gonna be awesome and they're gonna 631 00:41:51,400 --> 00:41:54,880 Speaker 2: have a gaudy record. Why he wouldn't win it is 632 00:41:54,960 --> 00:41:58,120 Speaker 2: if that defense is just too bad for them to 633 00:41:58,160 --> 00:42:02,480 Speaker 2: win thirteen games. If the defense that they've piled so 634 00:42:02,640 --> 00:42:04,759 Speaker 2: many top picks. 635 00:42:04,400 --> 00:42:05,919 Speaker 3: Into is. 636 00:42:08,120 --> 00:42:11,920 Speaker 2: It doesn't come around where they you know, they win 637 00:42:12,080 --> 00:42:14,880 Speaker 2: ten games and he can't win MVP. The X factor 638 00:42:15,280 --> 00:42:18,520 Speaker 2: is twenty and up is if the Chiefs go undefeated, 639 00:42:18,560 --> 00:42:21,680 Speaker 2: Mahomes is winning MVP, and the Chiefs might go undefeated. 640 00:42:22,320 --> 00:42:22,719 Speaker 4: All right? 641 00:42:22,880 --> 00:42:24,960 Speaker 2: The Lions, the Lions or this year's Turney pick to 642 00:42:24,960 --> 00:42:27,000 Speaker 2: make some noise in the NFC. Will they why? 643 00:42:27,400 --> 00:42:27,759 Speaker 4: Why not? 644 00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:28,920 Speaker 3: And what's their X factor? 645 00:42:29,400 --> 00:42:34,200 Speaker 4: Why they would is the week. 646 00:42:34,120 --> 00:42:36,160 Speaker 3: NFC and. 647 00:42:37,440 --> 00:42:42,759 Speaker 2: The Lions young players. 648 00:42:44,000 --> 00:42:44,640 Speaker 3: I want to make. 649 00:42:44,560 --> 00:42:46,719 Speaker 2: Sure I explain this the way I mean to explain it. 650 00:42:47,040 --> 00:42:51,680 Speaker 2: They drafted non premium positions, but the best or the 651 00:42:51,760 --> 00:42:54,800 Speaker 2: second best guy at every position. So they might get 652 00:42:55,040 --> 00:42:58,800 Speaker 2: like inside linebacker, running back, safety, they might get instant 653 00:42:58,880 --> 00:43:02,919 Speaker 2: impact from the rookie Clay. Why they wouldn't, No, no, no, 654 00:43:03,440 --> 00:43:04,239 Speaker 2: that's not the why not. 655 00:43:04,800 --> 00:43:05,920 Speaker 4: That was the why they would. 656 00:43:07,160 --> 00:43:11,839 Speaker 2: Why they wouldn't is Jared Goff goes back to being 657 00:43:11,880 --> 00:43:14,160 Speaker 2: the Jared Goff that we had seen throughout most of 658 00:43:14,160 --> 00:43:17,440 Speaker 2: his career prior to last year. The X factor is 659 00:43:17,520 --> 00:43:23,560 Speaker 2: the offensive line, because when Golf is protected, he's good, 660 00:43:24,000 --> 00:43:28,000 Speaker 2: but the moment he's pressured, he turns into a pumpkin. 661 00:43:28,520 --> 00:43:31,640 Speaker 2: They need great offensive line play more than just about 662 00:43:31,640 --> 00:43:34,400 Speaker 2: any team in the league. All right, next Baltimore. The 663 00:43:34,480 --> 00:43:36,800 Speaker 2: Ravens seem to have suddenly uncertainty this offseason. 664 00:43:36,840 --> 00:43:38,360 Speaker 4: Given Lamar everything he wanted. 665 00:43:38,360 --> 00:43:40,440 Speaker 2: New weapons, all that money, will Lamar look like an 666 00:43:40,520 --> 00:43:41,279 Speaker 2: MVP again? 667 00:43:41,360 --> 00:43:41,600 Speaker 4: Why? 668 00:43:41,640 --> 00:43:43,120 Speaker 3: Why not? What's their X factor? 669 00:43:43,480 --> 00:43:47,160 Speaker 2: Why he would is Todd Munkin and the new weapons, 670 00:43:47,760 --> 00:43:50,240 Speaker 2: and all of a sudden, he's in a pro style 671 00:43:50,280 --> 00:43:52,359 Speaker 2: offense like he was at Louisville. 672 00:43:51,880 --> 00:43:53,840 Speaker 4: Where he crushed. That's why he would. 673 00:43:54,360 --> 00:43:59,760 Speaker 2: Why he wouldn't is instead of getting better as a passer, 674 00:44:00,360 --> 00:44:07,240 Speaker 2: he's maybe regressing as a passer and he keeps missing 675 00:44:07,320 --> 00:44:13,160 Speaker 2: some of those easy layups. The X factor is how 676 00:44:13,200 --> 00:44:17,560 Speaker 2: good are the receivers really? Odell a year off another 677 00:44:17,640 --> 00:44:21,719 Speaker 2: knee injury, a rookie, and Zay Flowers. Will Bateman ever 678 00:44:21,760 --> 00:44:24,520 Speaker 2: take the leap? You know how we spent a lot 679 00:44:24,520 --> 00:44:28,000 Speaker 2: of resources on the receivers, But how good are they really? 680 00:44:28,280 --> 00:44:30,440 Speaker 2: All Right, we'll go to the Rams now, The Rams 681 00:44:30,520 --> 00:44:33,279 Speaker 2: super Bowl two years ago. Everyone's written them off. Could 682 00:44:33,320 --> 00:44:35,560 Speaker 2: the Rams be due for a bounce back season? 683 00:44:35,719 --> 00:44:36,040 Speaker 4: Why? 684 00:44:37,760 --> 00:44:39,080 Speaker 3: I don't know. 685 00:44:40,200 --> 00:44:43,560 Speaker 2: It's Rams bouncing back seems impossible. 686 00:44:44,040 --> 00:44:46,200 Speaker 3: I I can't. 687 00:44:46,280 --> 00:44:49,000 Speaker 2: There's no way. Why why not? This one will be 688 00:44:49,080 --> 00:44:51,600 Speaker 2: very simple? Why there is no reason? 689 00:44:51,640 --> 00:44:52,759 Speaker 4: Why? Why not? 690 00:44:53,400 --> 00:44:56,920 Speaker 2: Because of all because of the roster, and the X 691 00:44:57,000 --> 00:45:01,440 Speaker 2: factor is whether or not they are bad enough early 692 00:45:02,320 --> 00:45:05,439 Speaker 2: to turn the ship in the other direction and tank 693 00:45:05,520 --> 00:45:10,360 Speaker 2: for Caleb. Nothing would be smarter for the Los Angeles 694 00:45:10,440 --> 00:45:16,480 Speaker 2: Rams then to find a way to throw the games 695 00:45:16,680 --> 00:45:19,640 Speaker 2: against the Arizona Cardinals who are trying to tank for 696 00:45:19,719 --> 00:45:23,080 Speaker 2: Caleb themselves. All right, next, Baker Mayfield won the starting 697 00:45:23,160 --> 00:45:26,759 Speaker 2: job in Tampa. I'm still Baker's largest shareholder. Could the 698 00:45:26,760 --> 00:45:27,919 Speaker 2: Bucks have some run left? 699 00:45:27,960 --> 00:45:28,600 Speaker 4: Why? Why not? 700 00:45:28,680 --> 00:45:29,560 Speaker 3: What's their X factor? 701 00:45:29,880 --> 00:45:30,240 Speaker 4: Why? 702 00:45:30,680 --> 00:45:31,320 Speaker 3: The division? 703 00:45:32,440 --> 00:45:35,879 Speaker 2: And some of their top flight talent. 704 00:45:37,160 --> 00:45:39,240 Speaker 3: Good tackles or good. 705 00:45:39,040 --> 00:45:42,520 Speaker 2: Tackle I should say, good wide receivers, a couple impact 706 00:45:42,560 --> 00:45:43,520 Speaker 2: defensive players. 707 00:45:43,880 --> 00:45:44,359 Speaker 4: Why not? 708 00:45:45,680 --> 00:45:45,879 Speaker 6: Well? 709 00:45:45,960 --> 00:45:49,200 Speaker 2: The coach quarterback combo the Bulls Baker Combo. You know, 710 00:45:49,280 --> 00:45:51,360 Speaker 2: as much as I want to believe in Baker, you 711 00:45:51,360 --> 00:45:55,319 Speaker 2: know it's not exactly a proven coach quarterback combo. The 712 00:45:55,520 --> 00:46:00,040 Speaker 2: X factor is does anyone else in the division and 713 00:46:00,320 --> 00:46:03,839 Speaker 2: take a leap the Saints or the Falcons. I don't 714 00:46:03,840 --> 00:46:07,040 Speaker 2: think the Panthers can with Bryce Young, certainly not this year. 715 00:46:07,320 --> 00:46:12,160 Speaker 2: The Falcons could be good Man like good Ish. Bijon 716 00:46:12,400 --> 00:46:16,440 Speaker 2: is awesome, and the Saints are in or perpetually and 717 00:46:16,560 --> 00:46:20,480 Speaker 2: win now mode even if their ceiling is ten wins 718 00:46:20,480 --> 00:46:24,479 Speaker 2: and losing in round one. All right, last, I'm set 719 00:46:24,480 --> 00:46:26,520 Speaker 2: to face off against Phil helm Youth and others in 720 00:46:26,560 --> 00:46:28,240 Speaker 2: a big poker game next week. 721 00:46:29,160 --> 00:46:29,839 Speaker 4: How will I do? 722 00:46:30,080 --> 00:46:30,120 Speaker 6: What? 723 00:46:30,520 --> 00:46:32,880 Speaker 4: You know? What are the why all do well? Why won't? 724 00:46:32,880 --> 00:46:33,680 Speaker 3: In the X factor? 725 00:46:33,760 --> 00:46:34,080 Speaker 4: All Right? 726 00:46:34,520 --> 00:46:38,759 Speaker 2: So I'm going down to Houston to play. It's not 727 00:46:38,800 --> 00:46:41,080 Speaker 2: a poker tournament. It's a cash game, and it's a 728 00:46:41,680 --> 00:46:45,880 Speaker 2: big cash game. It's a three blind game, and the 729 00:46:45,880 --> 00:46:52,000 Speaker 2: blinds are twenty five fifty one hundred. You typically want 730 00:46:52,000 --> 00:46:56,080 Speaker 2: to have, at least for a game like this, at 731 00:46:56,200 --> 00:47:01,080 Speaker 2: least two hundred big blinds in front of you. So 732 00:47:02,000 --> 00:47:04,399 Speaker 2: the big blind is one hundred, and you want two 733 00:47:04,480 --> 00:47:08,439 Speaker 2: hundred of them. I mean, I would imagine everyone's gonna 734 00:47:08,480 --> 00:47:11,160 Speaker 2: be sitting with at least twenty grand. So it's a 735 00:47:11,160 --> 00:47:19,120 Speaker 2: big game. Why All do well? Is? And by the way, 736 00:47:19,120 --> 00:47:22,560 Speaker 2: it's a no limit hold them and pot limit Omaha game. 737 00:47:22,640 --> 00:47:23,440 Speaker 3: It alternates. 738 00:47:25,239 --> 00:47:34,560 Speaker 2: Why all do well is because I think I'm gonna 739 00:47:34,560 --> 00:47:39,239 Speaker 2: have an edge that I don't really want to say. 740 00:47:39,719 --> 00:47:43,279 Speaker 2: This is real money. I have an edge that I 741 00:47:43,280 --> 00:47:46,960 Speaker 2: don't think the other players will have that I will 742 00:47:47,000 --> 00:47:48,480 Speaker 2: discuss when I get back. 743 00:47:49,280 --> 00:47:52,359 Speaker 4: Why I wouldn't do well is. 744 00:47:54,480 --> 00:47:59,120 Speaker 2: If I lose a big hand early and get tilted, 745 00:47:59,440 --> 00:48:03,880 Speaker 2: which is one of my achilles heels, as it is 746 00:48:03,920 --> 00:48:08,200 Speaker 2: for a lot of poker players. The X factor, if 747 00:48:08,239 --> 00:48:13,359 Speaker 2: I'm being totally honest, is whether is whether or not 748 00:48:14,400 --> 00:48:20,000 Speaker 2: it's the players are drinking, because it's a it's at 749 00:48:20,000 --> 00:48:25,120 Speaker 2: a poker club, it's in Texas. If I think, my 750 00:48:25,560 --> 00:48:31,240 Speaker 2: edge goes up considerably if everyone myself included, is drinking. 751 00:48:31,760 --> 00:48:35,760 Speaker 2: If everyone's stone sober and being you know, super quiet 752 00:48:35,800 --> 00:48:39,000 Speaker 2: and taking it super serious, my edge goes down a bit. 753 00:48:40,080 --> 00:48:44,600 Speaker 2: But I'm used to playing in a chatty, big action, 754 00:48:45,160 --> 00:48:49,480 Speaker 2: drinks flowing poker setting, and if that's the setting, I 755 00:48:49,480 --> 00:48:49,799 Speaker 2: think I. 756 00:48:49,760 --> 00:48:50,840 Speaker 3: Could win a lot of money. 757 00:48:51,360 --> 00:48:54,959 Speaker 2: And if not, luckily football season starts a week after 758 00:48:55,000 --> 00:48:56,719 Speaker 2: I get back, and I'll make it all back with 759 00:48:56,840 --> 00:49:01,160 Speaker 2: my amazing picks, which, by the way, way, that show's 760 00:49:01,160 --> 00:49:04,279 Speaker 2: coming back as well, our third show. You know, we 761 00:49:04,400 --> 00:49:07,160 Speaker 2: usually do off season two shows a week during football season, 762 00:49:07,200 --> 00:49:09,520 Speaker 2: three shows a week. The Gambling show coming back in 763 00:49:09,560 --> 00:49:11,959 Speaker 2: a couple of weeks. We read your fan questions. Next, 764 00:49:11,960 --> 00:49:12,439 Speaker 2: what's right? 765 00:49:18,280 --> 00:49:18,560 Speaker 3: All right? 766 00:49:18,600 --> 00:49:19,120 Speaker 4: Welcome back? 767 00:49:19,160 --> 00:49:23,720 Speaker 2: In episode one seventy three, we're now reading the listener questions. 768 00:49:23,800 --> 00:49:25,960 Speaker 2: This one's from our producers who want to know how 769 00:49:26,080 --> 00:49:28,880 Speaker 2: was the Mulin Rouge in Paris. I am here to 770 00:49:28,960 --> 00:49:31,000 Speaker 2: tell you that is the single greatest show I've ever 771 00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:35,399 Speaker 2: seen in my life. I understand it's super famous, Nick, 772 00:49:35,400 --> 00:49:39,080 Speaker 2: why are you surprised? Sometimes things get so famous they 773 00:49:39,120 --> 00:49:43,000 Speaker 2: then deteriorate because they're kind of just coasting off their reputation. 774 00:49:44,239 --> 00:49:49,480 Speaker 2: The it it's a burlesque show, but it is so 775 00:49:49,719 --> 00:49:54,640 Speaker 2: much more. And yes, there are you know, very scantily 776 00:49:54,760 --> 00:49:59,359 Speaker 2: clad women as the you know, it's dancing, but that 777 00:49:59,520 --> 00:50:00,960 Speaker 2: is not what the show's about. 778 00:50:01,600 --> 00:50:03,240 Speaker 3: And I am telling you it. 779 00:50:03,320 --> 00:50:08,359 Speaker 2: Was jaw dropping, absolutely jaw dropping. I couldn't believe it, 780 00:50:08,920 --> 00:50:12,640 Speaker 2: and I can't even pay it justice. I'm just I'm 781 00:50:12,719 --> 00:50:18,239 Speaker 2: telling you I Paris was for my trip. I went 782 00:50:18,280 --> 00:50:22,920 Speaker 2: to Amsterdam, then to Colonne, Germany, then to Brussels and 783 00:50:22,960 --> 00:50:28,480 Speaker 2: then to Paris. Paris was one of the greatest cities 784 00:50:28,520 --> 00:50:31,319 Speaker 2: I've ever been to, one of the only places I've 785 00:50:31,320 --> 00:50:32,960 Speaker 2: ever traveled to where I was like, oh, I think 786 00:50:33,000 --> 00:50:36,600 Speaker 2: I could live I actually could live here, and Mulan 787 00:50:36,719 --> 00:50:39,560 Speaker 2: Rouge was the best thing I did.

Yeah, I understand that 792 00:50:53,680 --> 00:50:56,040 Speaker 2: I'm not the first person to have these opinions, but 793 00:50:56,120 --> 00:50:58,759 Speaker 2: it was my first experience there and I thought it 794 00:50:58,840 --> 00:50:59,920 Speaker 2: was just phenomenal. 795 00:51:00,200 --> 00:51:00,520 Speaker 4: All right. 796 00:51:00,680 --> 00:51:06,319 Speaker 2: Next, Quinn says, Nick, you should bet your hair the 797 00:51:06,400 --> 00:51:10,759 Speaker 2: Chiefs win the Super Bowl. Well, I'm not cutting my 798 00:51:10,800 --> 00:51:12,799 Speaker 2: hair until the Chiefs lose a game, so it could 799 00:51:12,800 --> 00:51:18,920 Speaker 2: be years. Uh. Dexter says, who's your sleeper team for 800 00:51:18,960 --> 00:51:23,000 Speaker 2: the NFL this season? I bet it's the Falcons.
