00:00:28,200 --> 00:00:32,120
Speaker 2: hear any news? Let me try to put this in perspective,

10
00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:35,560
Speaker 2: a little context. You may or may not have heard

11
00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:39,040
Speaker 2: the story about the gentleman who all his life he

12
00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:40,840
Speaker 2: wanted to visit Europe, but he couldn't do it because

13
00:00:40,840 --> 00:00:43,320
Speaker 2: he had to take care of his prize cat and

14
00:00:43,320 --> 00:00:47,880
Speaker 2: his mother. And he got into his forties and finally

15
00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:51,600
Speaker 2: his younger brother said, big brother, you gotta go to Europe.

16
00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:53,840
Speaker 2: I got this, We'll take care of the cat, will

17
00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:56,160
Speaker 2: take care of mom. You gotta let go and go

18
00:00:56,280 --> 00:01:01,520
Speaker 2: have fun. He does. He flies to Paris, gets off

19
00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:06,240
Speaker 2: the plane twelve hours later, immediately calls home, checking to

20
00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:10,839
Speaker 2: make things are Okay's younger brother answers. He says, how's

21
00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:18,480
Speaker 2: my Prize cat Fluffy. Fluffy's dead. Oh oh wait a minute, now, man,

22
00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:23,280
Speaker 2: did you have to be so gruff? Could you let

23
00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:25,320
Speaker 2: me down a little easier? What do you mean? I

24
00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:28,240
Speaker 2: don't know what you mean. Well, you could have said, like, well,

25
00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:32,360
Speaker 2: Fluffy went on the roof. The fire department came. He

26
00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:35,000
Speaker 2: couldn't get Fluffy off the roof. Finally we got Fluffy

27
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:38,920
Speaker 2: off roof. Then Fluffy fell broke her leg. Had to

28
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:42,600
Speaker 2: rush Fluffy to the vet. In the hospital, they thought

29
00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:46,920
Speaker 2: they could save her. She fought very hard. Four hours later,

30
00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:50,360
Speaker 2: Fluffy passed. Couldn't you have let me down easy a

31
00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:55,000
Speaker 2: little bit like that? Well, I guess you're right. I understand. Well,

32
00:01:55,000 --> 00:02:04,320
Speaker 2: how's mom? Why went on the roof? You know? Two

33
00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:09,639
Speaker 2: weeks ago PAC twelve media days were held here in

34
00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:13,760
Speaker 2: Las Vegas, and President of the PAC twelve, George Khaykoff,

35
00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:16,359
Speaker 2: stood up on the stage with a straight face and said,

36
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:20,560
Speaker 2: the PAC twelve has never been in better shape. When

37
00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:24,919
Speaker 2: you went to bed Thursday night, you believe that there

38
00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:28,400
Speaker 2: was a chance that the PAC twelve would survive and

39
00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:34,560
Speaker 2: avoid the inevitable. There is no cajoling about this story,

40
00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:39,480
Speaker 2: just a big thud. The PAC twelve collapsed right before

41
00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:43,639
Speaker 2: our very eyes. College sports conference realignment took a major

42
00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:48,840
Speaker 2: turn Friday. All media outlets have been reporting since midafternoon.

43
00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:52,440
Speaker 2: Oregon at Washington they're headed to the Big Ten, Arizona

44
00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:56,960
Speaker 2: heading to the Big twelve, and at lunch today the

45
00:02:57,000 --> 00:03:01,720
Speaker 2: PAC twelve they were down to six schools. Right. Colorado

46
00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:04,000
Speaker 2: started the trend moving over to the Big twelve about

47
00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:07,200
Speaker 2: ten days ago, ore going to Washington finalizing a deal

48
00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:12,200
Speaker 2: to join the Big Ten. According to sources, this really

49
00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:15,240
Speaker 2: could end. The PAC twelve was a Power five conference. Right,

50
00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:19,240
Speaker 2: Washington's the only PAC twelve school to crack the top

51
00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:22,680
Speaker 2: ten and athletic revenue, but Oregon isn't far behind. So

52
00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:25,880
Speaker 2: you got the two top moneymakers in the conference gone.

53
00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:30,600
Speaker 2: The Big ten will grant both, you know they'll join.

54
00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:35,880
Speaker 2: It's a fadea complete right, and even in spite of that,

55
00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:39,200
Speaker 2: it's frankly, it so clear as to whether Oregon Washington

56
00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:43,400
Speaker 2: will receive you know, their projected revenue share. We don't

57
00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:46,040
Speaker 2: know what they're gonna get, and they don't know what

58
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:48,000
Speaker 2: they're gonna get. I don't think it's gonna be a

59
00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:53,360
Speaker 2: full share until they're Big ten TV contract the current

60
00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:59,400
Speaker 2: contract ends in in twenty thirty. So all of a sudden,

61
00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:02,600
Speaker 2: now the Big Ten his up to eighteen schools. Word

62
00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:04,720
Speaker 2: is it in? There's talk could they end up at

63
00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:08,360
Speaker 2: twenty We shall see. This is all driven by TV.

64
00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:11,720
Speaker 2: As you know, Fox will fund somewhere between thirty five

65
00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:16,279
Speaker 2: to forty million for each of the schools, and Arizona

66
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:19,719
Speaker 2: obviously they're on their way to the Big Twelve. They've

67
00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:23,600
Speaker 2: ay that takes effect in twenty twenty four. So all

68
00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:25,880
Speaker 2: of a sudden, now you've still got I mean, by

69
00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:30,440
Speaker 2: the way, this all happened because the pacttal schools that

70
00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:32,840
Speaker 2: were in question, the ones I just mentioned, they were

71
00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:36,920
Speaker 2: not happy with that proposed media deal from Apple. Okay,

72
00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:45,160
Speaker 2: what a shock. Now now we've got Ara Jona check that,

73
00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:49,640
Speaker 2: Arizona joining the Big twelve, and Arizona State in Utah

74
00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:53,279
Speaker 2: right behind him. That all happened after lunch, right, So

75
00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:55,800
Speaker 2: now you've got the Big twelve up to sixteen teams,

76
00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:58,360
Speaker 2: get the Big Ten up to eighteen teams, and now

77
00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:03,240
Speaker 2: you've got the Pack four. It's not funny the Pack four, incredibly,

78
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:09,360
Speaker 2: just four Pac twelve schools remain Stanford, cal Oregon State

79
00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:14,800
Speaker 2: and Washington State. So what happens next? There are a

80
00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:18,839
Speaker 2: variety of scenarios that theoretically could play out. Could those

81
00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:21,560
Speaker 2: schools stick together and try to rebuild the PAC twelve

82
00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:24,279
Speaker 2: with schools from the Mountain West. Here's why that's not

83
00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:26,760
Speaker 2: gonna happen, because the Mountain West is actually run by

84
00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:29,800
Speaker 2: some pretty smart people. The exit fees for each team

85
00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:31,640
Speaker 2: I believe in the Mountain West are thirty two million

86
00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:34,280
Speaker 2: dollars per team. They don't have that kind of money

87
00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:36,599
Speaker 2: hanging around on the Mountain West. I'm pretty sure the

88
00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:39,359
Speaker 2: mount West TV deal brings in about four million per team.

89
00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:41,520
Speaker 2: You're not gonna pay thirty two million to go to

90
00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:46,880
Speaker 2: the PAC four. Now, what could Stanford, Cal, Oregon State,

91
00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:51,360
Speaker 2: and Washington State also do well? I believe Stanford and

92
00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:53,680
Speaker 2: Cal will contact the Big ten. I don't think they'll

93
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:56,400
Speaker 2: contact the Big twelve. They could contact the Big Ten,

94
00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:58,480
Speaker 2: the Big twelve, or eight, even the a SEC. Because

95
00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:03,880
Speaker 2: geographic traditions are right out the window. Money talks the

96
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:06,320
Speaker 2: remaining schools. They could be forced to join a non

97
00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:10,280
Speaker 2: Power five conference in twenty twenty four. Or Stanford, who

98
00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:13,640
Speaker 2: interestingly enough, has an abdominant of about forty one billion dollars.

99
00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:16,680
Speaker 2: I think, although it's not supposed to be used for athletics,

100
00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:19,760
Speaker 2: you know, they can in a sense, they could do

101
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:22,279
Speaker 2: what they want. They could become an independent. I don't

102
00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:24,520
Speaker 2: think they're going to do that, but they could become

103
00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:27,360
Speaker 2: an independent or hell, they could buy the Big Ten

104
00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:33,360
Speaker 2: with that forty one billion. So college football realignment alive

105
00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:38,159
Speaker 2: and well, big news day Friday. So which conference should

106
00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:41,400
Speaker 2: these schools join? I'm gonna take a guess. I'm gonna

107
00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:47,120
Speaker 2: take a guess. I think Stanford and Cal will will

108
00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:50,440
Speaker 2: lobby the Big Ten to join the Big Ten. They

109
00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:52,960
Speaker 2: have a clear path they have. Any of the schools remaining,

110
00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:59,960
Speaker 2: they would have the clearest path, right and look, Pac twelve,

111
00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:02,400
Speaker 2: they're never when they're at the history books, they will

112
00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:05,040
Speaker 2: have never gotten the media deal they wanted, the Apple

113
00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:08,120
Speaker 2: TV deal with a Fagetti you've got voted out and

114
00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:11,120
Speaker 2: the Big Ten. You know, they knew they were people

115
00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:14,280
Speaker 2: knew they were looking to add Oregon and Washington and

116
00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:16,920
Speaker 2: could Stanford and Cal be in the mix that would

117
00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:21,560
Speaker 2: bring the conference to an unheard of twenty teams. Okay, now,

118
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:23,480
Speaker 2: this would be dependent on whether the Big Ten would

119
00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:25,640
Speaker 2: consider adding two more schools of that I don't know.

120
00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:28,600
Speaker 2: And now you're hearing rumors of Florida State, Clemson. I

121
00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:32,360
Speaker 2: don't know. It's all mind boggling, that's all I can say.

122
00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:36,480
Speaker 2: But Stanford, obviously, Stanford and cal certainly meet the academic

123
00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:41,320
Speaker 2: standards the Big Ten, and Stanford is an outstanding athletic program.

124
00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:44,440
Speaker 2: And then the past and even you know, they haven't

125
00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:48,160
Speaker 2: won anything recently, but they're always competitive, they're always formidable,

126
00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:50,560
Speaker 2: and perhaps they would even be more so. Where does

127
00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:53,120
Speaker 2: that leave Oregon State and Washington State. I think that

128
00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:57,360
Speaker 2: leaves them looking at the Mountain West. All right. They

129
00:07:57,520 --> 00:07:59,400
Speaker 2: appear to me to be on the outside looking in.

130
00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:02,520
Speaker 2: All of their counterparts were able to find a new home,

131
00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:04,040
Speaker 2: or at least they had some interest in the Big

132
00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:06,640
Speaker 2: Ten and Big Twelve. That's not the case for Washington

133
00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:09,880
Speaker 2: State or Oregon State. By the way, two pretty good

134
00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:12,200
Speaker 2: football teams. They're both going to have good years this year.

135
00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:16,080
Speaker 2: So realistically, this is a realistic option. The mount West

136
00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:20,120
Speaker 2: makes some sense. They're in their geographic area. I realized

137
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:22,920
Speaker 2: it would not be lucrative of a deal. I think

138
00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:26,480
Speaker 2: going independent for Washington State and Oregon State completely out

139
00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:29,720
Speaker 2: of the question. Stafford could do it, but I don't think.

140
00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:32,440
Speaker 2: I don't think at all the Washington State or Oregon

141
00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:36,000
Speaker 2: State can do it. And when you consider that their

142
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:40,000
Speaker 2: options appear to be limited, the Mountain West wouldn't be

143
00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:43,440
Speaker 2: the worst thing in the world. And you know, while

144
00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:47,439
Speaker 2: West's a good conference, which team got to the finals

145
00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:50,680
Speaker 2: in the NCAA Basketball Tournament's year? Yeah, San Diego State,

146
00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:53,880
Speaker 2: Bloise State for years was a national power. And let's

147
00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:56,680
Speaker 2: forget Utah, which has become a national power. What conference

148
00:08:56,720 --> 00:08:58,720
Speaker 2: were they end a decade ago? The mount and West

149
00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:03,160
Speaker 2: TCU become a national power and in multiple sports, what

150
00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:06,120
Speaker 2: conference were they in years ago? That's right, the Mountain

151
00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:08,920
Speaker 2: West to Brigham Young, they're all there. You know they're

152
00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:12,040
Speaker 2: in the Big Twelve. Now, what conference were they in

153
00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:14,960
Speaker 2: ten years ago? The Mountain West. Mountain West is a

154
00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:22,280
Speaker 2: good conference, so you could see I think it would

155
00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:26,720
Speaker 2: make sense geographically, among other reasons, Washington State and Oregon

156
00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:29,240
Speaker 2: State in the Mountain West, you're not gonna see him

157
00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:31,000
Speaker 2: in the Big Twelve. You're not gonna see him in

158
00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:36,040
Speaker 2: any other big conference. Stanford Cal We'll see. Just just

159
00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:38,839
Speaker 2: depends on how much more of an appetite the Big

160
00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:41,360
Speaker 2: ten has and what other options those to those two

161
00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:46,240
Speaker 2: schools cal and Stanford have. My head is spinning with

162
00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:48,880
Speaker 2: all this. It happens so fast and furious. You know,

163
00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:51,840
Speaker 2: Mom went on the roof, the cat went on the roof. Well,

164
00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:54,719
Speaker 2: I'll tell you what. The Pac twelve fell off the

165
00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:56,480
Speaker 2: roof and they're now the pack four A. You're gonna

166
00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:59,679
Speaker 2: wake up tomorrow. This did this really happen? It really

167
00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:04,800
Speaker 2: did happen, and we're just getting started tonight. By the way,

00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:41,400
Speaker 2: hello to Lou Finicara. Lou, how are you, buddy.

219
00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:44,880
Speaker 5: I'm doing great, Bernie. Thanks so much for having me

220
00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:45,680
Speaker 5: on this evening.

221
00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:49,120
Speaker 2: I was looking forward to it. We got our They

222
00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:51,320
Speaker 2: went at our whistle last night with some football, and

223
00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:54,120
Speaker 2: of course that reminds us that four weeks from next

224
00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:57,120
Speaker 2: Thursday night, it starts for real as the Chiefs host

225
00:12:57,480 --> 00:12:59,719
Speaker 2: the Lions, laying seven and well, by the way, the

226
00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:04,360
Speaker 2: chief defending their world championship. But interestingly enough, Lou, you've

227
00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:06,920
Speaker 2: got some what I consider to be pretty insightful thoughts

228
00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:09,679
Speaker 2: on their win total. I not predicting that they won't

229
00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:12,520
Speaker 2: be back in the Super Bowl. There's some questions as

230
00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:14,320
Speaker 2: to whether or not they can get to thirteen wins.

231
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:19,800
Speaker 5: Those are my questions, Bernie. Actually my questions are if

232
00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:21,920
Speaker 5: they can get to twelve wins. And I'll try and

233
00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:24,400
Speaker 5: be as brief as I can to try and get

234
00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:27,880
Speaker 5: through all the information I have. When I start with personnel,

235
00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:33,000
Speaker 5: gone is the enemy, gone is Juju the wide receiver,

236
00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:37,040
Speaker 5: And so you look at skill positions on a team

237
00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:40,880
Speaker 5: that's spent the third most amount of budget in the

238
00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:45,640
Speaker 5: NFL on offense, and you're dynamically thin at wide receiver

239
00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:49,920
Speaker 5: with Sky Morveldez, Gantling and Tony who's already dinged up

240
00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:53,600
Speaker 5: and hurt. With the running back. The fact that they

241
00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:58,960
Speaker 5: brought in the running back Pacheco after they had drafted

242
00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:02,920
Speaker 5: edwards Hillel. Hilaire tells you that Hilaire's probably a little

243
00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:06,800
Speaker 5: bit of a miss and at running back McKinnon, Hilaire

244
00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:11,040
Speaker 5: and Pacheco. When you look at the skill positions for

245
00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:15,720
Speaker 5: Kansas City outside of quarterback and tight end, they're dynamic

246
00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:20,239
Speaker 5: leaked in the strength of their team obviously the offense, quarterback,

247
00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:25,000
Speaker 5: tight end, offensive line where they have the seventeenth budget

248
00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:28,080
Speaker 5: but the fourth ranked offensive line. When we get to

249
00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:33,880
Speaker 5: strength of schedule, they had the fifth rate highest strength

250
00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:37,320
Speaker 5: of schedule Bernie, which is the number one increase from

251
00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:40,320
Speaker 5: last year to this year in the NFL and in

252
00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:44,360
Speaker 5: the AFC with seventeen games, most teams had nine games

253
00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:46,960
Speaker 5: at home and then eight games away. In fact, with

254
00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:51,120
Speaker 5: Kansas City with a Frankfurt game called a home game,

255
00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:56,520
Speaker 5: they in essence had nine road games as opposed to

256
00:14:56,920 --> 00:15:00,680
Speaker 5: just seventh. So that's a lot of track and then

257
00:15:00,760 --> 00:15:04,600
Speaker 5: the coup to resist off net rest. They have the

258
00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:08,960
Speaker 5: third worst net rest advantage in the whole of the NFL.

259
00:15:09,040 --> 00:15:12,240
Speaker 5: In fact, the first eleven weeks of the season they

260
00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:16,560
Speaker 5: have a plus six rest advantage, which is decent considering

261
00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:20,360
Speaker 5: five of those games are on the road. The last

262
00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:24,600
Speaker 5: six games back to back in a row, they had

263
00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:28,640
Speaker 5: a negative twenty rest days and that's really a tough

264
00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:31,840
Speaker 5: way to go when six games, three games on the

265
00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:38,000
Speaker 5: road minus twenty days of road. In the last three years,

266
00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:43,040
Speaker 5: the Chiefs has been the top ten team in injury luck,

267
00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:45,680
Speaker 5: meaning they've had very few injuries. In the last two

268
00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:50,640
Speaker 5: years they've been top five injury luck. Regression is due

269
00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:53,280
Speaker 5: to set in. I don't want teams to get hurt

270
00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:56,840
Speaker 5: or players to get hurt, but we have to understand

271
00:15:57,160 --> 00:16:00,000
Speaker 5: that that's in the cards for them. And then finally

272
00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:03,080
Speaker 5: in the schedule, they take on the AFC East this

273
00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:07,360
Speaker 5: year from the AFC South last year. That's tougher. The

274
00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:10,800
Speaker 5: NFC North they get from the NFC West. I'll call

275
00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:16,440
Speaker 5: that even. But then they're three games Cincinnati, Jacksonville, and Philly. Listen,

276
00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:20,280
Speaker 5: Kansas City is a great team, but I think the

277
00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:25,360
Speaker 5: fact that they're soaping and skill in offense, their defensive

278
00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:28,800
Speaker 5: budget twenty second in the NFL gone as Frank Clark

279
00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:32,840
Speaker 5: holding out is their star defensive tackle. This is a

280
00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:36,359
Speaker 5: team I think that's going to be targeted by everybody.

281
00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:39,320
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, they're the Super Bowl winners, and I think

282
00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:42,800
Speaker 5: for that reason, there's every reason to expect the Chiefs

283
00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:47,119
Speaker 5: to exceed expectation this year as far as Division Conference

284
00:16:47,160 --> 00:16:50,360
Speaker 5: super Bowl, but not as far as season wins. And

285
00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:54,080
Speaker 5: for that reason, under eleven and a half plus one

286
00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:57,920
Speaker 5: twenty under ten and a half plus two hundred now

287
00:16:57,960 --> 00:17:01,360
Speaker 5: I suggest going maybe one one and a half units

288
00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:04,640
Speaker 5: on the under eleven and a half and a half

289
00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:06,959
Speaker 5: a unit under the ten and a half. But I

290
00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:10,639
Speaker 5: love the alternate win total, and I think Kansas City

291
00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:13,440
Speaker 5: gets the best from everyone they see this year.

292
00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:16,320
Speaker 2: Bernie, I'm glad you brought up strength to Scheduled because

293
00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:21,320
Speaker 2: last year, Lou the top seven strength to schedule NFL teams,

294
00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:24,520
Speaker 2: only two exceeded their win total and only two made

295
00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:27,200
Speaker 2: the playoffs. Now I think the Chiefs will make the playoffs.

296
00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:32,200
Speaker 2: Talk about their division because the Raiders notwithstanding, I expect

297
00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:35,320
Speaker 2: to toss a lot of both Denver and LA both games.

298
00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:39,360
Speaker 5: Your thoughts, Yeah, you know, that's really where a lot

299
00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:42,560
Speaker 5: of this thought comes into, Bernie, because how do we

300
00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:48,520
Speaker 5: picture how do we envision this division unfolding this year?

301
00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:52,960
Speaker 5: I absolutely think Denver is going to be improved. I'm

302
00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:56,639
Speaker 5: confident in that. How much improved, I'm not sure. And

303
00:17:56,680 --> 00:18:00,200
Speaker 5: then as far as the LA Chargers, I'm sure. I'm

304
00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:02,720
Speaker 5: gonna call them San Diego here, But as far as

305
00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:06,119
Speaker 5: the Chargers are concerned, that's a huge unknown. With a

306
00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:09,399
Speaker 5: new offensive coordinator, it sounds like everything's going to be,

307
00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:13,240
Speaker 5: you know, fireworks and long bombs down in LA. But

308
00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:15,159
Speaker 5: we're going to have to wait and see how that

309
00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:19,520
Speaker 5: actually unfolds. But if the Chargers can do their part

310
00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:23,400
Speaker 5: with Denver and present Kansas City with an improved division,

311
00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:27,200
Speaker 5: then maybe we squeeze a few extra losses in those

312
00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:30,119
Speaker 5: division games. I have to admit I don't have a

313
00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:33,280
Speaker 5: lot of confidence in the Las Vegas Raiders.

314
00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:37,320
Speaker 2: Fair enough for Let's get to the Chief's opponent on

315
00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:40,000
Speaker 2: opening Night, the Detroit Lions. Their win total is nine

316
00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:41,960
Speaker 2: and a half now. They were nine an eight last year. Lou,

317
00:18:42,280 --> 00:18:44,040
Speaker 2: I won't give you all the reasons I think. I

318
00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:45,800
Speaker 2: think they can win more game and get to ten.

319
00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:48,680
Speaker 2: Your thoughts about that play, the Lions over win till

320
00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:51,199
Speaker 2: the ten and a half, Bernie.

321
00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:55,240
Speaker 5: At this time of the NFL season, and actually until

322
00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:58,240
Speaker 5: we get to the week of the first Thursday night

323
00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:02,800
Speaker 5: football game, I'm only looking at No's and negatives, because

324
00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:05,440
Speaker 5: I'm not going to allow any kind of an injury,

325
00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:10,160
Speaker 5: a suspension, or any kind of weird happening to impede

326
00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:13,280
Speaker 5: the potential to win a bet. So I'm only looking

327
00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:16,280
Speaker 5: at teams not to do something, and I'm only looking

328
00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:20,720
Speaker 5: at teams to go under their season totals. As far

329
00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:25,080
Speaker 5: as the Lions are concerned, here's a couple of things

330
00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:27,400
Speaker 5: that I want to just point out with them. They

331
00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:31,359
Speaker 5: have the eleventh easiest strength of schedule this year with

332
00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:35,240
Speaker 5: one day arrest. They have great continuity in the react

333
00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:39,040
Speaker 5: that all the coaches are returning. I mentioned offensive line

334
00:19:39,040 --> 00:19:44,600
Speaker 5: with Kansas City. I ranked every team's offensive line there's Lions.

335
00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:47,600
Speaker 5: They have a high budget on their offensive line. They

336
00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:50,359
Speaker 5: spent the third most of the thirty two NFL teams,

337
00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:54,000
Speaker 5: but they have the second ranked offensive line in the league. Well,

338
00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:57,399
Speaker 5: you can't go wrong with that. In the AFC West

339
00:19:57,520 --> 00:20:00,439
Speaker 5: this year, that's where they toil where they had the

340
00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:04,880
Speaker 5: AFSE East last year. I don't see any big change there.

341
00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:08,320
Speaker 5: But in the NFC they get the South at the

342
00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:11,720
Speaker 5: expense of the East last year. That's a much easier

343
00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:18,600
Speaker 5: play for them. Ravens, Cowboys, Hawks, those are difficult challenges

344
00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:24,520
Speaker 5: weather late Detroit outside just one game against Chicago. If

345
00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:28,640
Speaker 5: I want to look at the difficulties for Detroit Week

346
00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:31,840
Speaker 5: four through seven, three of the four games are.

347
00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:32,320
Speaker 2: On the road.

348
00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:36,119
Speaker 5: This year, they have three sets where they have to

349
00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:39,840
Speaker 5: go back to back in the road. Normally a team

350
00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:43,280
Speaker 5: will have one set of back to back roads, sometimes

351
00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:47,160
Speaker 5: they'll have two. The Lions do have three, and then

352
00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:49,760
Speaker 5: two of those sets of back to back road games

353
00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:54,520
Speaker 5: happened between weeks thirteen and Week seventeen and two Thursday

354
00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:58,199
Speaker 5: night football games. As I look at the Lions, my

355
00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:02,640
Speaker 5: thoughts are this the new two new running backs, how

356
00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:06,560
Speaker 5: do they replace the two horses that they lost? Number one,

357
00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:10,600
Speaker 5: Number two wide receiver corps. Yeah, I'm on Saint John,

358
00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:14,720
Speaker 5: very very competent receiver, but he's going to have to

359
00:21:14,760 --> 00:21:17,439
Speaker 5: do it a second year. And they've had nothing but

360
00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:23,440
Speaker 5: trouble with this kid from Alabama. They yeah, he's fast,

361
00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:27,960
Speaker 5: he's fast, he's athletic, he could do it all. The

362
00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:30,280
Speaker 5: problem is he can't catch a cold right now, and

363
00:21:30,320 --> 00:21:34,000
Speaker 5: they're really trying to work on that. So the offense

364
00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:38,800
Speaker 5: has to take a continued step up and the defense

365
00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:43,919
Speaker 5: has to improve diametrically but whether they do. In the offseason.

366
00:21:43,960 --> 00:21:46,640
Speaker 5: They bring in Edge Clowney, they brought in a couple

367
00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:50,480
Speaker 5: of defensive tackles, and I think that the Lions under

368
00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:53,359
Speaker 5: Dan Gamble are doing what they need to do to

369
00:21:53,520 --> 00:21:58,440
Speaker 5: try and become a perennial challenger in the NFC North,

370
00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:00,960
Speaker 5: which is something that we have been able to say

371
00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:05,119
Speaker 5: in a while. I'm not ready to pronounce them a

372
00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:07,840
Speaker 5: team that I think can exceed nine and a half,

373
00:22:08,080 --> 00:22:12,040
Speaker 5: but they sure have tremendous amounts of positivity going for

374
00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:14,840
Speaker 5: them on their schedule. Breakdown this shit.

375
00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:17,680
Speaker 2: Lou great stuff as always. Let's get you back right

376
00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:21,320
Speaker 2: around Week one of the NFL season and keep cool

377
00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:22,160
Speaker 2: out there at Arizona.

378
00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:25,480
Speaker 5: Buddy, thanks so much for having me, Bernie, good luck

379

388
00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:55,000
Speaker 2: I dive into Women's World Cup. I've got a lot

389
00:22:55,040 --> 00:22:57,679
Speaker 2: to say about that. But first let's go to our

390
00:22:57,720 --> 00:23:01,000
Speaker 2: guy who's currently contemplating offers to join the Big Ten.

391
00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:02,440
Speaker 2: It's their own, Kevin figures.

392
00:23:02,760 --> 00:23:04,960
Speaker 6: I know what, Bernie, I'll take about zero point two

393
00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:07,640
Speaker 6: percent of that TV money. I think I'll be good

394
00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:09,320
Speaker 6: to go. If they want to accept me to the

395
00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:11,600
Speaker 6: Big Ten, I'm all for it. I'll take the bludgeting

396
00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:13,520
Speaker 6: at the hands of Ohio State five million to nothing.

397
00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:17,159
Speaker 6: That'll work for me. Let's start with Major League Baseball

398
00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:19,639
Speaker 6: from Friday night. Dodgers scored five runs in the a

399
00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:21,560
Speaker 6: three runs in the ninth inning, they pulled away from

400
00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:24,680
Speaker 6: the Padres a ten to five victory in San Diego.

401
00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:28,080
Speaker 6: Ju You Alriguez hitting one of four home runs for Seattle.

402
00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:30,640
Speaker 6: They defeated the Angels nine to seven for their third

403
00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:34,119
Speaker 6: straight victory. Four street losses there for the Angels. Three

404
00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:37,200
Speaker 6: solo home runs for Minnesota. They beat the slumping Arizona

405
00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:39,879
Speaker 6: d Backs three to two. Jordan Montgomery picked up the

406
00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:42,359
Speaker 6: victory in his debut with the Rangers a six to

407
00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:45,400
Speaker 6: two win over Florida. You had victories for Cleveland, Toronto,

408
00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:47,920
Speaker 6: and Houston, who got a home run from yard On Alvarez,

409
00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:51,040
Speaker 6: a seven to three victory over the Yankees. Bernie mentioned

410
00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:53,439
Speaker 6: it earlier, the Big Twelve formally announcing the additions of

411
00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:56,960
Speaker 6: Arizona Arizona States in Utah, while the Big Ten officially

412
00:23:57,000 --> 00:24:00,280
Speaker 6: welcomed Oregon and Washington. Also talking about the Women's World Cup.

413
00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:04,000
Speaker 6: Currently on FS one, Spain just scored again. They are

414
00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:07,560
Speaker 6: now up five to one over Switzerland in the seventy

415
00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:09,879
Speaker 6: first minute. After this game on FS one, it'll be

416
00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:12,439
Speaker 6: Japan taking on Norway. The US team will play their

417
00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:15,520
Speaker 6: Round of sixty matchup against Sweden on Sunday morning at

418
00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:16,520
Speaker 6: five am Eastern.

419
00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:20,200
Speaker 4: You can watch that game on Fox. Back to Bernie Freddo.

420
00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:27,160
Speaker 2: All right, thanks Kevin. So the knockout round is under

421
00:24:28,119 --> 00:24:32,520
Speaker 2: way tonight. He'd kicked off at at ten pm Pacific,

422
00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:36,879
Speaker 2: and Spain is having their way. But listen, the story

423
00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:39,440
Speaker 2: of the tournament head again would be, you know, with

424
00:24:39,600 --> 00:24:42,600
Speaker 2: the US women's team three peat, it's never been done before.

425
00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:45,879
Speaker 2: The Brazil men's team won fifty six, sixty and sixty

426
00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:47,360
Speaker 2: eight three out of four, but no one's done three

427
00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:51,399
Speaker 2: in a row. And yes, the women have advanced to

428
00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:54,000
Speaker 2: the knockout round. But frankly, there's no way to spin

429
00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:56,920
Speaker 2: this other than I think there's a very uneasy sigh relief.

430
00:24:57,560 --> 00:25:00,119
Speaker 2: Let's start with the good news. Yes, they got to

431
00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:03,119
Speaker 2: the knockoff stage of the World Cup. But there's some

432
00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:06,760
Speaker 2: bad news. All the US needed going into the game

433
00:25:06,800 --> 00:25:10,000
Speaker 2: against Portugal was a draw, and that's all. They got

434
00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:12,840
Speaker 2: a draw, and it was a grind out nil nil draw.

435
00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:16,960
Speaker 2: Very unimpressive. Now the result doesn't bode well if you

436
00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:18,919
Speaker 2: look ahead to the rest of the tournament, both in

437
00:25:19,040 --> 00:25:22,760
Speaker 2: terms of how the US women looked and what their

438
00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:27,119
Speaker 2: second place finish means for its knockout round matchups. I

439
00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:29,439
Speaker 2: think the biggest concern for this team thus far has

440
00:25:29,440 --> 00:25:36,040
Speaker 2: Bennett's offense. I could inject a funny joke that I

441
00:25:36,600 --> 00:25:41,280
Speaker 2: usually say for NFL offenses, I will I will demur

442
00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:45,440
Speaker 2: on that for now and not not go down that road.

443
00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:50,960
Speaker 2: But it's a concern. Now. You heard that against Vietnam

444
00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:55,240
Speaker 2: in the three nothing victory, there were twenty seven shots

445
00:25:55,600 --> 00:26:00,000
Speaker 2: but only six round target all. Right. Then against an

446
00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:02,400
Speaker 2: the Netherlands, they escaped on a one to one drawing

447
00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:07,879
Speaker 2: a perfect cornerkick from Rose Level put it right in

448
00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:10,919
Speaker 2: the slot. Hold that thought. I'd be coming back to

449
00:26:10,960 --> 00:26:13,840
Speaker 2: her and any other day. They know. The US did

450
00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:17,639
Speaker 2: have thirteen shots against Portugal, four on target, but Portugal

451
00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:20,960
Speaker 2: held the majority of possession, and everybody knew the US

452
00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:23,640
Speaker 2: would not be this unstoppable force of the World Cup

453
00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:26,959
Speaker 2: as they have been in previous tournaments. But a scoreless

454
00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:30,199
Speaker 2: straw against the twenty first team in the world is

455
00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:35,280
Speaker 2: troubling a nono. Their coach, Vlatko andonofsky He finally did

456
00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:38,800
Speaker 2: make a couple of changes to the starting lineup against Portugal.

457
00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:42,640
Speaker 2: Midfielder Rose Level, one of the fastest players on the team,

458
00:26:42,760 --> 00:26:45,679
Speaker 2: plays with great energy, plays with great pace, sets the

459
00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:49,879
Speaker 2: tone passes, he possession passes for penetration. She's an outstanding

460
00:26:49,920 --> 00:26:52,160
Speaker 2: force and she was four years ago as well. Now,

461
00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:55,320
Speaker 2: remember she has been on a pitch count right because

462
00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:58,080
Speaker 2: of her knee injury, and she'd been coming off the

463
00:26:58,119 --> 00:27:00,840
Speaker 2: bench trying to work her way back. But she got

464
00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:04,639
Speaker 2: her start in favor of Savannah Demelo, who frankly had struggled.

465
00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:07,680
Speaker 2: Now the other forward, Lynn Williams, also got to start

466
00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:09,679
Speaker 2: after not even appearing in the first two games. She

467
00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:14,199
Speaker 2: replaced Trinity Rodman, who's very athletic daughter of Dennis Robin.

468
00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:18,440
Speaker 2: But I think the inexperience has shown on the world stage. Unfortunately,

469
00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:22,440
Speaker 2: those two changes didn't solve any of the team's offensive

470
00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:25,480
Speaker 2: rolls in my view. So then after using the same

471
00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:27,920
Speaker 2: starting lineup in the first two games, he was criticized

472
00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:30,600
Speaker 2: by using just a single substitute in the game against

473
00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:34,240
Speaker 2: the Dutch coach Flatko's William miss to mix things up,

474
00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:36,760
Speaker 2: and he's all five of the subs. I guess on

475
00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:39,800
Speaker 2: sub level. Was nice to see, but they couldn't put

476
00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:43,320
Speaker 2: put the ball in the net. The bad news. And

477
00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:46,560
Speaker 2: the other game in Group EE, the Netherlands, you know,

478
00:27:47,040 --> 00:27:50,399
Speaker 2: Molly wopped, as Kevin would say, Vietnam seven to nothing.

479
00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:52,880
Speaker 2: And so with that win, the Dutch claimed the top

480
00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:56,320
Speaker 2: spot in the group. US has to settle for second,

481
00:27:57,280 --> 00:27:59,720
Speaker 2: and they're going to face a much more challenging path

482
00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:03,600
Speaker 2: through the knockout stage than if they had won. Okay,

483
00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:07,320
Speaker 2: their round of sixteen opponent is Sweden, the number three

484
00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:10,359
Speaker 2: team in the world. Had they won, they would have

485
00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:14,560
Speaker 2: faced Italy number sixteen or Argentina number twenty eight or

486
00:28:14,600 --> 00:28:18,760
Speaker 2: South Africa number fifty four. No, they're going to face Sweden,

487
00:28:18,760 --> 00:28:21,399
Speaker 2: who looks very good. And later in the show, I'm

488
00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:23,679
Speaker 2: going to give my prediction and you'd be you'd be

489
00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:27,280
Speaker 2: amazed at how much of a foreign in the US

490
00:28:27,359 --> 00:28:31,159
Speaker 2: as But Sweden has been I'll give the results in

491
00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:36,040
Speaker 2: the previous World Cup, in the previous Olympics. Sweden has

492
00:28:36,080 --> 00:28:39,640
Speaker 2: been very formidable against the US. They've been a problem

493
00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:44,960
Speaker 2: all right now. If I'm being honest, the US doesn't

494
00:28:44,960 --> 00:28:49,120
Speaker 2: look like a team that's capable of defeating Sweden. I

495
00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:54,080
Speaker 2: would say their effort against Portugal was haphazard at best.

496
00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:57,760
Speaker 2: The US has looked disjointed in several aspects in a

497
00:28:57,800 --> 00:29:01,240
Speaker 2: lot of their games. I thought the Netherlands. Against the Netherlands,

498
00:29:01,640 --> 00:29:07,800
Speaker 2: they look far more technical. They controlled the play, they

499
00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:10,640
Speaker 2: carried the play, they had possession for the vast majority

500
00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:14,920
Speaker 2: of the game. And frankly, you know it's forgotten already,

501
00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:17,680
Speaker 2: but the Americans came dangerously close to losing the game

502
00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:20,040
Speaker 2: in the final minute in the group stage because a

503
00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:23,000
Speaker 2: ball hit the post. A Portuguese shot clanged off the

504
00:29:23,040 --> 00:29:26,720
Speaker 2: post in stoppage time a couple of inches to the

505
00:29:26,800 --> 00:29:30,240
Speaker 2: left and the US they'd be on a plane headed home.

506
00:29:30,680 --> 00:29:33,680
Speaker 2: All right, They've got twenty six hours to get their

507
00:29:33,680 --> 00:29:35,840
Speaker 2: act together quickly if they want to win their next game.

508
00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:39,520
Speaker 2: And the Americans, I don't know how many times I

509
00:29:39,560 --> 00:29:41,840
Speaker 2: have to say it. They've struggled thus far against teams

510
00:29:42,120 --> 00:29:46,360
Speaker 2: that are inferior to the Swedes. And oh, by the way,

511
00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:50,880
Speaker 2: they're going to be shorthanded Sunday's game rules level suspended

512
00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:53,360
Speaker 2: after picking up a yellow card, and the match against

513
00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:58,080
Speaker 2: Portugal will not play. That's a huge loss. Levell's been

514
00:29:58,120 --> 00:30:00,719
Speaker 2: excellent even in this World Cup in a limited minutes.

515
00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:04,400
Speaker 2: The US midfield has struggled mightily even with Leavell, but

516
00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:06,440
Speaker 2: without her it's been even worse. Now the team's going

517
00:30:06,480 --> 00:30:08,200
Speaker 2: to go into its toughest game yet missing one of

518
00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:11,719
Speaker 2: its best players at a position, a need at a position,

519
00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:15,440
Speaker 2: or experience. And again you hear people say it over

520
00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:17,280
Speaker 2: and over, soccer's growing the rest of the world. No

521
00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:19,200
Speaker 2: one expected this World Cup to be an easy one,

522
00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:23,200
Speaker 2: but I didn't think it would be this difficult either. Okay,

523
00:30:24,440 --> 00:30:27,640
Speaker 2: the United States has looked out of sync, out of ideas,

524
00:30:27,800 --> 00:30:31,360
Speaker 2: out of energy the entire group stage, and now I

525
00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:34,040
Speaker 2: think they're with their most energizing They're going to be

526
00:30:34,080 --> 00:30:38,680
Speaker 2: without their most energizing midfielder. I don't know what Rose

527
00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:41,960
Speaker 2: Level was thinking. Late in the first half, she attempted

528
00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:44,640
Speaker 2: to pride the ball from one of the Portugal midfielders,

529
00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:47,800
Speaker 2: and when she couldn't do it at first, she attempted

530
00:30:47,800 --> 00:30:51,080
Speaker 2: to make a second attempt, got very clumsy, toppled to

531
00:30:51,120 --> 00:30:54,240
Speaker 2: the ground, ended up sort of, you know, tangling into

532
00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:56,320
Speaker 2: the legs of the player in possession. I think it

533
00:30:56,360 --> 00:30:59,240
Speaker 2: was unintentional, but it happened, and it was enough to

534
00:30:59,280 --> 00:31:03,120
Speaker 2: elicit a Yollo hard Well, combined with the cards he

535
00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:05,560
Speaker 2: drew against Netherlands, two strikes and you're out in the

536
00:31:05,560 --> 00:31:09,160
Speaker 2: World Cup. So now Savannah Namelo returns to the lineup,

537
00:31:09,720 --> 00:31:12,920
Speaker 2: or do you throw an Ashley Sanchez or Christy Mwis.

538
00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:16,680
Speaker 2: Both players have even haven't even seen the field for

539
00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:18,800
Speaker 2: any of the two hundred and seventy minutes his tournament's

540
00:31:18,920 --> 00:31:22,480
Speaker 2: gone on so far. So this is a situation that

541
00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:26,360
Speaker 2: is I won't say it's dire, but it's not good.

542
00:31:27,040 --> 00:31:29,440
Speaker 2: Later in the show, i'll give my prediction and why

543
00:31:30,520 --> 00:31:35,800
Speaker 2: and what you can expect. So here we are coming up.

544
00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:40,920

576
00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:23,000
Speaker 2: to the Fox family. Glad to have you. We won't

577
00:33:23,080 --> 00:33:26,120
Speaker 2: let you down. All right. We had football sort of

578
00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:29,120
Speaker 2: Thursday night. Even the lights went out, all kinds of

579
00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:33,880
Speaker 2: fun for the whole family. We're back. The six month

580
00:33:33,920 --> 00:33:37,000
Speaker 2: football drought is over. We actually had NFL players on

581
00:33:37,040 --> 00:33:39,719
Speaker 2: a real field, well, at least some of them were

582
00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:43,160
Speaker 2: NFL players. Some will be working at NAP Auto Parts

583
00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:44,920
Speaker 2: in a couple of weeks. Nothing wrong with that. That's

584
00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:49,560
Speaker 2: good clean work. That's good Christian values. No shame in that.

585
00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:53,760
Speaker 2: Thirty minutes go by another familiar fitting set in football,

586
00:33:53,840 --> 00:33:56,840
Speaker 2: preseason football. They go toe to toll Jets and Browns

587
00:33:57,920 --> 00:34:00,560
Speaker 2: and the preseason's important NFL team, believe it or not,

588
00:34:00,640 --> 00:34:06,360
Speaker 2: they you know, position battles, gauging the progress of draft choices,

589
00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:08,960
Speaker 2: things of that nature. And of course, I mean years

590
00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:10,960
Speaker 2: I covered the Lions. It took it serious. Okay, It's

591
00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:14,759
Speaker 2: much easier to evaluate a position coach to evaluate a

592
00:34:14,760 --> 00:34:16,960
Speaker 2: position battle in the heat of a game. Oh, by

593
00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:19,400
Speaker 2: the way, there's revenue involved too. They don't do this

594
00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:21,520
Speaker 2: for free. And it's the whole Hall of Fame weekend.

595
00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:26,640
Speaker 2: A couple of observations, as it were. The Browns Dorian

596
00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:31,400
Speaker 2: Thompson Robinson drafted in the fifth round. He is the

597
00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:35,759
Speaker 2: rookie quarterback from that new Big ten powerhouse UCLA. He

598
00:34:35,840 --> 00:34:38,080
Speaker 2: looked pretty darned good. As a matter of fact, I'm

599
00:34:38,080 --> 00:34:42,160
Speaker 2: gonna the professionals were all on the Jets, including me.

600
00:34:42,200 --> 00:34:44,000
Speaker 2: I'm gonna take my medicine here. I'll tell you why

601
00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:45,520
Speaker 2: we were on the Jets and give you some thoughts

602
00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:50,440
Speaker 2: about preseason football and why it's frankly more profitable to bet,

603
00:34:51,160 --> 00:34:53,920
Speaker 2: even though last night didn't work out. I you know

604
00:34:54,239 --> 00:34:58,759
Speaker 2: Kellen Mond who continues to completely underwhelm. It's just incredible.

605
00:34:59,719 --> 00:35:03,759
Speaker 2: He's started the game, Thompson Robinson basically came in in

606
00:35:03,800 --> 00:35:06,960
Speaker 2: the second half and won the game. Zach Wilson still

607
00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:10,439
Speaker 2: some work to do. Remember, he's gonna be an Aaron

608
00:35:10,520 --> 00:35:13,440
Speaker 2: Rodgers shadow this year and behind the Aaron Rodgers hoopla.

609
00:35:14,080 --> 00:35:16,880
Speaker 2: But he's got arm talent. He's you know, I'm not

610
00:35:16,920 --> 00:35:18,719
Speaker 2: gonna call him a million dollar arm in ten cent

611
00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:20,200
Speaker 2: head because I don't know if he's got a million

612
00:35:20,200 --> 00:35:22,640
Speaker 2: dollar arm, but he's got a damn good arm. Okay,

613
00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:24,600
Speaker 2: he's a very talented guy. He doesn't want to be

614
00:35:24,640 --> 00:35:27,160
Speaker 2: a pro yet number two draft pick. Overall, here, you

615
00:35:27,200 --> 00:35:30,480
Speaker 2: can't just poo poo that showed one flash of above

616
00:35:30,520 --> 00:35:34,560
Speaker 2: average ability. Fifty seven yard completion, looks some shaky and

617
00:35:34,600 --> 00:35:37,000
Speaker 2: looks shaky and other throws, but you know, maybe a

618
00:35:37,040 --> 00:35:39,800
Speaker 2: little bit better than what some people might have been expecting.

619
00:35:39,920 --> 00:35:44,560
Speaker 2: Still nothing to as you say, write home abop. So

620
00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:50,319
Speaker 2: from a betting standpoint, I love the Jets last night

621
00:35:50,960 --> 00:35:53,160
Speaker 2: for a couple of reasons, and so did the pros.

622
00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:56,920
Speaker 2: The Cleveland Browns opened up at a two point favorite.

623
00:35:57,080 --> 00:35:59,480
Speaker 2: He was bet heavily on the Jets all the way

624
00:35:59,480 --> 00:36:03,359
Speaker 2: down to minus two. And it may surprise listen, I'm

625
00:36:03,360 --> 00:36:05,720
Speaker 2: gonna tell you why. I'm gonna back up the statement

626
00:36:05,760 --> 00:36:08,799
Speaker 2: I just said. Some people look at the preseason. Trey

627
00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:10,440
Speaker 2: Wingo said a couple of years ago, you got to

628
00:36:10,440 --> 00:36:12,920
Speaker 2: be degenerate. He doesn't know what he's talking about. Okay,

629
00:36:13,800 --> 00:36:18,480
Speaker 2: people can mock preseason betting, but in reality, preseason wagering

630
00:36:18,600 --> 00:36:21,560
Speaker 2: is dominated by sharp betters. And if you don't believe

631
00:36:21,640 --> 00:36:24,880
Speaker 2: me that it's easier to bet preseason than regular season,

632
00:36:25,080 --> 00:36:27,080
Speaker 2: then that's the sports books why you're only allowed to

633
00:36:27,080 --> 00:36:29,400
Speaker 2: bet a fraction of the limit that you're allowed to

634
00:36:29,440 --> 00:36:31,319
Speaker 2: bet in the regular season. Okay, it's not a winning

635
00:36:31,360 --> 00:36:34,280
Speaker 2: proposition for the books. It's one of the easier sports

636
00:36:34,320 --> 00:36:37,239
Speaker 2: to bet if you do your research and you get information.

637
00:36:37,680 --> 00:36:42,280
Speaker 2: It's all about information. Here's why. It's the only sport

638
00:36:42,320 --> 00:36:45,439
Speaker 2: you're gonna find where some coaches really want to win

639
00:36:46,320 --> 00:36:48,440
Speaker 2: and set a tone and the coach on the other

640
00:36:48,520 --> 00:36:52,080
Speaker 2: sideline couldn't care less if they win. And most of

641
00:36:52,120 --> 00:36:55,400
Speaker 2: the time these games are decided in the second half,

642
00:36:55,840 --> 00:36:59,839
Speaker 2: with the team that's got the better quarterback room. Now,

643
00:37:00,680 --> 00:37:05,759
Speaker 2: let me back that up a little further. So Kevin Stefanski,

644
00:37:05,800 --> 00:37:08,759
Speaker 2: the head coach of the Browns. Obviously, Deshaun Watson was

645
00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:11,160
Speaker 2: gonna play. He even said two days before the game

646
00:37:11,239 --> 00:37:14,359
Speaker 2: his second string quarterback, Josh Dobson wasn't gonna play, so

647
00:37:14,400 --> 00:37:17,080
Speaker 2: he didn't care if he won this game. It was

648
00:37:17,120 --> 00:37:20,359
Speaker 2: gonna come down to Kellen Mond, who has a less

649
00:37:20,360 --> 00:37:24,200
Speaker 2: than zero NFL career so far, and Dorian Thompson Robinson,

650
00:37:24,239 --> 00:37:27,000
Speaker 2: a fifth round draft choice. They were gonna put it

651
00:37:27,040 --> 00:37:31,360
Speaker 2: on their shoulders. Meanwhile, the quarterback room that the New

652
00:37:31,480 --> 00:37:35,880
Speaker 2: York Jets have, frankly, he's pretty darn good. Now, Rogers

653
00:37:35,920 --> 00:37:38,799
Speaker 2: wasn't gonna play. But Jack Wilson, who actually won four

654
00:37:38,880 --> 00:37:41,800
Speaker 2: NFL start games last year, beat Buffalo, beat the Dolphins.

655
00:37:42,200 --> 00:37:44,600
Speaker 2: He got the start, Tim Boyle, who has a lot

656
00:37:44,640 --> 00:37:49,319
Speaker 2: of regular season NFL experience, and then Chris Streveler. Say

657
00:37:49,320 --> 00:37:51,520
Speaker 2: what you want about Chris Trevler, He's not only got

658
00:37:51,640 --> 00:37:55,680
Speaker 2: NFL's experience, he was tremendous in last year's preseason, completing

659
00:37:55,880 --> 00:37:57,880
Speaker 2: twenty four to thirty three passes for two hundred and

660
00:37:57,880 --> 00:38:01,759
Speaker 2: seventy seven yards, five touchdowns, win interception. That was the

661
00:38:01,760 --> 00:38:05,040
Speaker 2: difference in why the pros bet the Jets. Also, Robert

662
00:38:05,160 --> 00:38:08,320
Speaker 2: sala in his career, he wants to win in the preseason.

663
00:38:09,400 --> 00:38:12,160
Speaker 2: He was five to zero in the preseason before last

664
00:38:12,239 --> 00:38:15,879
Speaker 2: night's game. And so when you look at you know,

665
00:38:16,960 --> 00:38:20,359
Speaker 2: as the weekend goes on, as we get into the preseason,

666
00:38:20,760 --> 00:38:23,279
Speaker 2: I will give you the best and worst coaches. There

667
00:38:23,280 --> 00:38:25,759
Speaker 2: are plenty of coaches who really want to win. There

668
00:38:25,800 --> 00:38:29,040
Speaker 2: are plenty of coaches who simply don't care if they win.

669
00:38:29,360 --> 00:38:32,520
Speaker 2: And the Keys you haven't heard. Baltimore coach John Harbaugh

670
00:38:32,640 --> 00:38:35,439
Speaker 2: clearly wants to win. The Ravens have won twenty three

671
00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:38,320
Speaker 2: straight preseason games and twenty eight of their last thirty

672
00:38:38,320 --> 00:38:40,960
Speaker 2: one while going twenty six and five against the number.

673
00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:43,480
Speaker 2: That's not by accident. They want to win. And oh,

674
00:38:43,480 --> 00:38:45,920
Speaker 2: by the way, who do the Ravens play in their

675
00:38:45,960 --> 00:38:51,000
Speaker 2: first preseason game? The Philadelphia Eagles. Historically, in the last

676
00:38:51,080 --> 00:38:56,680
Speaker 2: thirty years, the Super Bowl loser has gone on to

677
00:38:56,719 --> 00:38:59,439
Speaker 2: go six and twenty four against the number, and their

678
00:38:59,440 --> 00:39:03,600
Speaker 2: first preseason game after losing to the Super Bowl that's Philadelphia,

679
00:39:04,040 --> 00:39:07,320
Speaker 2: And oh yeah, Baltimore twenty three straight twenty one and

680
00:39:07,400 --> 00:39:10,400
Speaker 2: two against the number. So the longest short of it

681
00:39:10,480 --> 00:39:15,400
Speaker 2: is betting in the preseason actually brings much more value

682
00:39:15,400 --> 00:39:16,799
Speaker 2: when you look at the coaches you want to win

683
00:39:16,880 --> 00:39:20,399
Speaker 2: versus the coach you don't care, the quarterback room, things

684
00:39:20,400 --> 00:39:21,840
Speaker 2: of that nature. We'll get into a lot more of

685
00:39:21,840 --> 00:39:25,400
Speaker 2: that stuff. So last night was a football game sort of.

686
00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:28,239
Speaker 2: Jim Schwartz acted like it was a super Bowl. You

687
00:39:28,280 --> 00:39:30,400
Speaker 2: know what, give it up, Cleveland. We don't go one

688
00:39:30,440 --> 00:39:32,480
Speaker 2: hundred percent in these things. No one bats a thousand.

689
00:39:32,840 --> 00:39:35,240
Speaker 2: But I will tell you there are some basic tenants

Speaker 2: There you go.

721
00:41:17,320 --> 00:41:19,239
Speaker 7: All right, Tim, Let's get it going. So for the

722
00:41:19,239 --> 00:41:22,440
Speaker 7: first question, and what year did the NFL Hall of

723
00:41:22,440 --> 00:41:23,360
Speaker 7: Fame debut?

724
00:41:26,400 --> 00:41:37,000
Speaker 2: Wow? That's a brutal one. Nineteen fifty three. Okay, that's

725
00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:42,480
Speaker 2: not a bad guess. I'm going I'm gonna take a guess,

726
00:41:42,680 --> 00:41:52,120
Speaker 2: and this is a guess. Uh nineteen sixty three? All right? Wow,

727
00:41:53,840 --> 00:41:55,480
Speaker 2: pulled that way out of my took us and I

728
00:41:55,560 --> 00:41:58,319
Speaker 2: knew it was before the Super Bowl started, but I

729
00:41:58,360 --> 00:42:01,200
Speaker 2: also knew it was in the sick. I don't know

730
00:42:01,200 --> 00:42:01,680
Speaker 2: how I did that.

731
00:42:01,719 --> 00:42:04,240
Speaker 7: I gotta say Tim surprised me too. At the fifty three.

732
00:42:04,320 --> 00:42:07,040
Speaker 2: That's a pretty good that. That's pretty good guess, but

733
00:42:07,160 --> 00:42:09,160
Speaker 2: obviously you can't know how. All right, continue on, now

734
00:42:09,160 --> 00:42:09,800
Speaker 2: we get the bet.

735
00:42:09,840 --> 00:42:12,200
Speaker 7: All right, So the United States has taken on Sweden

736
00:42:12,239 --> 00:42:14,680
Speaker 7: and the Women's World Cup after a tough showing in

737
00:42:14,719 --> 00:42:17,200
Speaker 7: its prior game. Do you think the US will triumph

738
00:42:17,560 --> 00:42:18,640
Speaker 7: or are you gonna take Sweden?

739
00:42:21,640 --> 00:42:24,280
Speaker 5: I'm taking Sweden, Barnie.

740
00:42:24,360 --> 00:42:26,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm gonna have to. I'm gonna have to back

741
00:42:26,560 --> 00:42:30,719
Speaker 2: to him. I don't like the US in this spot.

742
00:42:31,200 --> 00:42:35,480
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go with Sweden as well. I'll give much

743
00:42:35,520 --> 00:42:38,120
Speaker 2: more detail later, but you guys might be surprised to know.

744
00:42:38,880 --> 00:42:41,719
Speaker 2: You probably already know that Sweden beat the US and

745
00:42:41,760 --> 00:42:47,879
Speaker 2: the twenty twenty Tokyo Olympics three to nothing. Right, and

746
00:42:47,960 --> 00:42:51,080
Speaker 2: so anyway, you know, we got him in the World

747
00:42:51,080 --> 00:42:54,640
Speaker 2: Cup in twenty nineteen, but they're like one in five

748
00:42:54,719 --> 00:42:56,919
Speaker 2: the last not counting friendly. He's like one in five

749
00:42:56,960 --> 00:43:00,400
Speaker 2: against Sweden. All right, good luck to him, Bik. You

750
00:43:03,760 --> 00:43:07,480
Speaker 2: are who we got now? H shaym.

Speaker 7: right now.

762
00:43:50,680 --> 00:43:52,239
Speaker 2: All right, well, I'll tell you what. While we were

763
00:43:52,320 --> 00:43:57,080
Speaker 2: on the subject of the US women versus Sweden, right, uh,

764
00:43:58,000 --> 00:43:59,920
Speaker 2: if you look ahead to the game, which is just

765
00:44:00,160 --> 00:44:03,120
Speaker 2: a little over twenty four hours away, the women's team

766
00:44:03,600 --> 00:44:06,960
Speaker 2: was not good in group play, right believe it or not,

767
00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:08,799
Speaker 2: their favorite to get past Sweden in the round of

768
00:44:08,800 --> 00:44:12,439
Speaker 2: sixteen on Sunday. They're plus one oh five, which means

769
00:44:12,480 --> 00:44:14,880
Speaker 2: if you bet one hundred dollars on the US, you

770
00:44:14,960 --> 00:44:19,239
Speaker 2: win one oh five. And if Sweden is a is

771
00:44:19,239 --> 00:44:22,279
Speaker 2: a much bigger dog if you win. If you bet

772
00:44:22,320 --> 00:44:25,879
Speaker 2: one hundred dollars on Sweden, win to forty. Now why

773
00:44:25,960 --> 00:44:29,120
Speaker 2: is that, Well, that's not a prediction. That's merely an

774
00:44:29,200 --> 00:44:34,640
Speaker 2: indicator that you know, the sportsbooks are managing risks. So

775
00:44:34,840 --> 00:44:38,239
Speaker 2: you've got a situation where that the line is not

776
00:44:38,280 --> 00:44:40,560
Speaker 2: an indicator. It's a matter of where to put the

777
00:44:40,600 --> 00:44:45,160
Speaker 2: line so that you draw equal action. Right, if the

778
00:44:45,239 --> 00:44:47,799
Speaker 2: US has a rival, I think Sweden's very much on

779
00:44:47,840 --> 00:44:50,920
Speaker 2: the short list. Sweden's got tremendous pedigree, They got tremendous

780
00:44:50,920 --> 00:44:53,799
Speaker 2: head to head history. To make it a case, the

781
00:44:53,840 --> 00:44:57,200
Speaker 2: Swedes have seven wins against the US, third most of

782
00:44:57,280 --> 00:45:00,680
Speaker 2: any country. Do we have anybody on the line, now, Sha.

783
00:45:01,440 --> 00:45:03,440
Speaker 7: We have people on the line, but it seems.

784
00:45:03,120 --> 00:45:05,720
Speaker 2: To be some you got Okay, we got a phone,

785
00:45:05,920 --> 00:45:09,359
Speaker 2: we got a foam malf you just jump in and

786
00:45:09,360 --> 00:45:12,200
Speaker 2: interrupt me. Yeah, well we got this back. Okay, we'll

787
00:45:12,239 --> 00:45:15,920
Speaker 2: do because people like this contest. The only two teams

788
00:45:16,120 --> 00:45:19,360
Speaker 2: that have beaten the US more are Norway and China.

789
00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:23,239
Speaker 2: But those that's only because they've played the US more.

790
00:45:23,400 --> 00:45:28,000
Speaker 2: Right now, this is the sixth straight World Cup where

791
00:45:28,040 --> 00:45:30,440
Speaker 2: the US and Sweden will have met, and all of

792
00:45:30,480 --> 00:45:34,160
Speaker 2: those meetings, including there was an additional match back in

793
00:45:34,239 --> 00:45:37,160
Speaker 2: nineteen ninety one, every one of those meetings has actually

794
00:45:37,200 --> 00:45:39,800
Speaker 2: taken place in the group stage. This is going to

795
00:45:39,880 --> 00:45:42,319
Speaker 2: be the first time the US has met Sweden in

796
00:45:42,360 --> 00:45:48,480
Speaker 2: the knockout stage. And so look the countries Sweden, Usa,

797
00:45:48,560 --> 00:45:50,480
Speaker 2: they just can't seem to stay away from each other.

798
00:45:50,560 --> 00:45:53,520
Speaker 2: Right They've met three times in the Olympics. The US

799
00:45:53,560 --> 00:45:56,600
Speaker 2: won a group stage match back in Atlanta in ninety six,

800
00:45:57,080 --> 00:46:00,600
Speaker 2: Sweden won the last two and twenty sixteen knocked out

801
00:46:00,600 --> 00:46:03,359
Speaker 2: the US on penalties and in the quarterfinals, and then

802
00:46:03,560 --> 00:46:07,520
Speaker 2: the Tokyo Games, the Swedes blew away the Americans three

803
00:46:07,560 --> 00:46:11,120
Speaker 2: to nothing, and that was the Alex Morgan team. Okay,

804
00:46:11,160 --> 00:46:14,360
Speaker 2: so what's expected. Well, the Americans are favored to advance,

805
00:46:14,840 --> 00:46:18,000
Speaker 2: but they're not overwhelming favorites. I think the key to

806
00:46:18,120 --> 00:46:20,359
Speaker 2: this game, and the reason I have favoring I am

807
00:46:20,400 --> 00:46:24,839
Speaker 2: favoring Sweden, is because Rose Level, who was working her

808
00:46:24,880 --> 00:46:29,560
Speaker 2: way back into the lineup right, well, she got two

809
00:46:29,640 --> 00:46:31,560
Speaker 2: yellow carts. She got one against the Netherlands and one

810
00:46:31,600 --> 00:46:34,120
Speaker 2: against Portugal, so she won't play at all, and that

811
00:46:34,160 --> 00:46:36,879
Speaker 2: means Savannah de Mello, most likely, who started the first

812
00:46:36,920 --> 00:46:40,480
Speaker 2: two matches before being replaced by Lavell, will returned to

813
00:46:40,520 --> 00:46:43,839
Speaker 2: the starting lineup. And one of the other things that's

814
00:46:44,160 --> 00:46:48,200
Speaker 2: bothershed them to me, and again that's lack of experience

815
00:46:48,280 --> 00:46:51,200
Speaker 2: in the world stage. So look, you saw how the

816
00:46:51,200 --> 00:46:57,040
Speaker 2: Americans struggled in draws against the Netherlands and Portugal and Sweden.

817
00:46:57,040 --> 00:46:59,480
Speaker 2: What did they do? They pretty much blew away their

818
00:46:59,480 --> 00:47:03,239
Speaker 2: Group G opponents. Now they needed a ninety goal in

819
00:47:03,280 --> 00:47:07,280
Speaker 2: the ninetieth minute to beat South Africa in the opener.

820
00:47:07,719 --> 00:47:09,879
Speaker 2: But then they, you know, as Kevin would say, they

821
00:47:10,040 --> 00:47:13,879
Speaker 2: mollywopped Italy. I think it was five nothing. They beat

822
00:47:13,920 --> 00:47:16,759
Speaker 2: Italy five nothing, and then they went on to beat

823
00:47:16,840 --> 00:47:21,120
Speaker 2: Argentina two to nothing, and they win all three of

824
00:47:21,160 --> 00:47:26,799
Speaker 2: their group wins. Apartment of redundancy department, you know, as

825
00:47:26,800 --> 00:47:31,040
Speaker 2: opposed to the US who only beat Vietnam three nothing

826
00:47:31,360 --> 00:47:34,720
Speaker 2: and had some perspective. The Netherlands beat Vietnam seven nothing,

827
00:47:35,360 --> 00:47:37,320
Speaker 2: and then they went on to get a one to

828
00:47:37,320 --> 00:47:40,960
Speaker 2: one draw against Netherlands on a corner kick. All right, brandiady,

829
00:47:41,440 --> 00:47:43,200
Speaker 2: all right, let's go back to the phones. Who we got.

830
00:47:44,280 --> 00:47:46,360
Speaker 7: So we got Poppy from San Diego.

831
00:47:46,520 --> 00:47:48,880
Speaker 2: Poppy looking to defend this title. Let's dive right, and

832
00:47:48,960 --> 00:47:49,319
Speaker 2: let's go.

833
00:47:50,440 --> 00:47:51,840
Speaker 5: Let's go on defend the belt.

834
00:47:52,320 --> 00:47:56,319
Speaker 7: All right, Poppy. So, how many members were elected to

835
00:47:56,360 --> 00:47:58,200
Speaker 7: the Hall of Fame the NFL Hall of Fame in

836
00:47:58,239 --> 00:47:59,120
Speaker 7: its first year?

837
00:48:00,680 --> 00:48:01,560
Speaker 5: In its first year?

838
00:48:01,760 --> 00:48:02,560
Speaker 8: That's a good one.

839
00:48:02,560 --> 00:48:07,120
Speaker 5: That's a tough with a couple of guys. Let me go,

840
00:48:07,200 --> 00:48:08,320
Speaker 5: what seven? That's your number?

841
00:48:08,320 --> 00:48:13,520
Speaker 2: Seven? Actually was? It was a ton of them, But

842
00:48:13,560 --> 00:48:15,920
Speaker 2: there's no way. I know, I know, I know it

843
00:48:15,960 --> 00:48:18,640
Speaker 2: was more than ten. And it wasn't just players, but

844
00:48:18,680 --> 00:48:20,719
Speaker 2: in the first Hall of Fame they had executives too.

845
00:48:20,760 --> 00:48:22,960
Speaker 2: So I can't give you a number. I'll say twelve.

846
00:48:25,920 --> 00:48:27,359
Speaker 7: So it was seventeen.

847
00:48:27,640 --> 00:48:29,640
Speaker 2: Oh my goodness. I knew it was a lot. I

848
00:48:29,680 --> 00:48:31,200
Speaker 2: knew it was a lot because they came out of

849
00:48:31,239 --> 00:48:31,520
Speaker 2: the gate.

850
00:48:31,680 --> 00:48:33,879
Speaker 7: So let's go into this quick. The Astros are at

851
00:48:33,880 --> 00:48:37,680
Speaker 7: the Yankees at ten oh five am Pacific time today.

852
00:48:38,080 --> 00:48:40,120
Speaker 7: The over under is set at eight and a half,

853
00:48:40,320 --> 00:48:43,319
Speaker 7: with the starting pitcher projected to by Justin Verlander for

854
00:48:43,640 --> 00:48:48,640
Speaker 7: the the Nestor Cortes for the Yankees. You got the

855
00:48:48,680 --> 00:48:49,439
Speaker 7: over or the under.

856
00:48:50,640 --> 00:48:52,359
Speaker 5: So that's seven and a half.

857
00:48:52,360 --> 00:48:55,760
Speaker 2: You said for the eight and a half and a half.

858
00:48:56,160 --> 00:48:59,799
Speaker 5: You know what, Justin Verlander the picture, he just went under.

859
00:49:00,120 --> 00:49:02,840
Speaker 8: He's gonna want to keep it low. And the and

860
00:49:02,880 --> 00:49:03,400
Speaker 8: the Yankees.

861
00:49:03,440 --> 00:49:05,520
Speaker 5: We've got Ronalds. I think you're under.

862
00:49:05,560 --> 00:49:06,839
Speaker 8: Let's go with a Nannder on this run.

863
00:49:10,000 --> 00:49:12,000
Speaker 2: I think I think there's gonna be some offense in

864
00:49:12,040 --> 00:49:15,799
Speaker 2: this game. Nester Cortes has been banged around terribly this year. Uh,

865
00:49:15,920 --> 00:49:19,400
Speaker 2: he's got a high e ra uh, he doesn't strike

866
00:49:19,400 --> 00:49:21,560
Speaker 2: out a lot of guys, and he's got a bad wink.

867
00:49:21,719 --> 00:49:23,319
Speaker 2: I'm gonna have to go against you, Poppy. I'm gonna

868
00:49:23,360 --> 00:49:25,000
Speaker 2: go with you over all right.

869
00:49:25,120 --> 00:49:26,400
Speaker 5: Well, good luck, Bernie.

870
00:49:26,280 --> 00:49:29,520
Speaker 2: Good luck to you, Poppy. Good job, buddy. Okay, keep

871
00:49:29,520 --> 00:49:33,560
Speaker 2: it going, Shay. Who got next? Shay?

872
00:49:33,840 --> 00:49:37,680
Speaker 7: So next, we got Nathan from the Bay Area, Nansen,

873
00:49:37,719 --> 00:49:38,160
Speaker 7: a returner.

874
00:49:38,200 --> 00:49:40,160
Speaker 2: How you doing, Nathan, Nathan?

875
00:49:40,320 --> 00:49:41,560
Speaker 5: Yep, yep, we good.

876
00:49:42,320 --> 00:49:44,880
Speaker 7: Let's go all right, Nathan. So this quarterback led its

877
00:49:44,880 --> 00:49:48,240
Speaker 7: team to back to back Super Bowl championships in Super

878
00:49:48,239 --> 00:49:49,440
Speaker 7: Bowl one and two.

879
00:49:56,160 --> 00:49:59,760
Speaker 2: Well, I wasn't alive, I'll tell you that much. Pretty

880
00:49:59,760 --> 00:50:03,040
Speaker 2: little world buzzer there. That was almost ten seconds. That's

881
00:50:03,040 --> 00:50:05,600
Speaker 2: an easy one for me. It's actually Bart Starr from

882
00:50:05,680 --> 00:50:08,359
Speaker 2: Universe of Alabama, Bart one, one and two. All right,

883
00:50:08,440 --> 00:50:09,200
Speaker 2: let's go to the bat.

884
00:50:09,400 --> 00:50:12,040
Speaker 7: Nigeria is taking on England and the Women's World Cup

885
00:50:12,040 --> 00:50:14,440
Speaker 7: on the seventh of August. England is coming into the

886
00:50:14,480 --> 00:50:16,200
Speaker 7: game with the over set at two and a half

887
00:50:16,239 --> 00:50:17,640
Speaker 7: goals made. Do they cover?

888
00:50:18,960 --> 00:50:22,480
Speaker 2: So England team total over? Okay, let's make sure we

889
00:50:22,480 --> 00:50:25,200
Speaker 2: get the question right. You're asking do they cover? Are

890
00:50:25,200 --> 00:50:28,600
Speaker 2: you asking for the the total under over two and

891
00:50:28,640 --> 00:50:29,799
Speaker 2: a half? Two and a half?

892
00:50:29,880 --> 00:50:31,440
Speaker 7: Yeah? Do they cover the total for two and a

893
00:50:31,440 --> 00:50:31,879
Speaker 7: half goals?

894
00:50:31,880 --> 00:50:34,439
Speaker 2: Man? Okay? Okay, So you're either going to go over

895
00:50:34,520 --> 00:50:36,719
Speaker 2: or under the toll, that's what you rest over. I said, yeah,

896
00:50:37,239 --> 00:50:40,000
Speaker 2: but you said cover and that's a whole different question

897
00:50:40,160 --> 00:50:43,120
Speaker 2: because if England wins the game, they'll be laying odds

898
00:50:43,160 --> 00:50:44,920
Speaker 2: and they may even be laying a goal depending on

899
00:50:44,960 --> 00:50:47,000
Speaker 2: the depending on the odd So we're looking at the

900
00:50:47,040 --> 00:50:48,960
Speaker 2: total here. Do they go over or under two and

901
00:50:49,000 --> 00:50:54,960
Speaker 2: a half goals? That's the right England Nigeria? Okay? Over

902
00:50:55,080 --> 00:50:56,200
Speaker 2: or under two and a half goals?

903
00:50:56,200 --> 00:50:56,359
Speaker 6: Over?

904
00:50:56,760 --> 00:50:56,920
Speaker 2: Over?

905
00:50:57,120 --> 00:50:57,359
Speaker 5: Over?

906
00:50:58,440 --> 00:51:01,000
Speaker 2: You like you Okay, he likes the over all right,

907
00:51:01,480 --> 00:51:06,640
Speaker 2: all right, all right, thank you, all right, thanks for

908
00:51:06,680 --> 00:51:08,920
Speaker 2: calling in, buddy. I'm gonna go with the under.

909
00:51:08,680 --> 00:51:13,080
Speaker 7: Shae, okay, sweet. And then we got Dave from Phoenix.

910
00:51:13,600 --> 00:51:17,280
Speaker 2: Hey, Dave, Hello, Bernie good.

911
00:51:17,320 --> 00:51:19,680
Speaker 7: Sure, so we're gonna go right into this. Where was

912
00:51:19,719 --> 00:51:21,880
Speaker 7: the first Women's FIFA World Cup located?

913
00:51:24,719 --> 00:51:32,960
Speaker 2: Oh wow, I'll play England. You know, it wasn't that

914
00:51:33,040 --> 00:51:34,880
Speaker 2: long ago. It was only nineteen ninety one. It was

915
00:51:34,880 --> 00:51:38,759
Speaker 2: in China because it was well I think I'm right,

916
00:51:38,800 --> 00:51:43,000
Speaker 2: am I right, yeah it was. It was relatively new then,

917
00:51:43,120 --> 00:51:45,520
Speaker 2: and of course, uh yeah it was. It was China.

918
00:51:46,320 --> 00:51:46,719
Speaker 2: All right.

919
00:51:47,680 --> 00:51:50,359
Speaker 7: So the bets are at the Orioles today at four

920
00:51:50,440 --> 00:51:54,040
Speaker 7: or five pm Pacific Standard time. The over under on

921
00:51:54,239 --> 00:51:56,560
Speaker 7: runs is set at nine and a half. Are you

922
00:51:56,600 --> 00:51:57,680
Speaker 7: taking the over or the under?

923
00:52:00,920 --> 00:52:01,160
Speaker 1: Wow?

924
00:52:01,360 --> 00:52:02,839
Speaker 8: Remind me of the pictures in that game.

925
00:52:04,280 --> 00:52:07,920
Speaker 7: The pictures for that game is gonna be sorry, I

926
00:52:07,960 --> 00:52:08,680
Speaker 7: gotta pull them up.

927
00:52:11,800 --> 00:52:15,160
Speaker 2: I believe it's Tyler McGill and Kyle Gibson. I believe

928
00:52:15,320 --> 00:52:17,800
Speaker 2: Gil for the Mets, Gibson for the Orioles.

929
00:52:18,760 --> 00:52:22,520
Speaker 8: Okay, yeah, Well, the Orioles are scoring a lot of

930
00:52:22,600 --> 00:52:25,160
Speaker 8: runs and the Mets are allowing a lot of runs. Uh,

931
00:52:25,920 --> 00:52:26,560
Speaker 8: I'm gonna go.

932
00:52:26,520 --> 00:52:29,319
Speaker 2: With you over all right, you know, I'm actually gonna

933
00:52:29,320 --> 00:52:32,719
Speaker 2: go with the under on this one. The Mets are

934
00:52:32,760 --> 00:52:36,560
Speaker 2: really struggling right now swinging the bat. They feel it

935
00:52:36,560 --> 00:52:41,240
Speaker 2: feels like they've mailed it in. And uh, it usually

936
00:52:41,360 --> 00:52:45,000
Speaker 2: takes two teams to get you over right, unless unless

937
00:52:45,000 --> 00:52:46,799
Speaker 2: the Ools put up an eight spot or something. I'm

938
00:52:46,840 --> 00:52:48,879
Speaker 2: gonna take a flyer on the ender. But but good luck,

939
00:52:48,960 --> 00:52:53,719
Speaker 2: Dave you there, Dave? All right, good luck, Thanks for

Speaker 2: I am all right. What do we got for a

947
00:53:10,400 --> 00:53:11,080
Speaker 2: trivia question?

948
00:53:11,360 --> 00:53:11,480
Speaker 5: So?

949
00:53:11,600 --> 00:53:14,719
Speaker 7: What year did the PAC ten turn into the PAC twelve.

950
00:53:16,280 --> 00:53:22,880
Speaker 8: Of two thousand and four?

951
00:53:25,440 --> 00:53:27,719
Speaker 2: Wasn't that long? Goals? Right after I moved to Vegas,

952
00:53:27,760 --> 00:53:30,600
Speaker 2: Colorado and Utah joined the conference and maybe became the

953
00:53:30,640 --> 00:53:35,680
Speaker 2: PAC twelve in twenty eleven? Darn So.

954
00:53:35,719 --> 00:53:39,240
Speaker 7: The Vikings are taking on the Seahawks in an NFL

955
00:53:39,280 --> 00:53:42,480
Speaker 7: preseason game on Thursday, August tenth at seven pm Pacific

956
00:53:42,560 --> 00:53:46,839
Speaker 7: Standard time. The over is set at thirty five. Are

957
00:53:46,880 --> 00:53:48,160

958
00:53:49,760 --> 00:53:50,720
Speaker 2: Where's the game?

959
00:53:51,760 --> 00:53:54,800
Speaker 7: Where is the game? The Seahawks are gonna the Vikings

960
00:53:54,800 --> 00:53:56,480
Speaker 7: are at the Seahawks.

961
00:53:57,920 --> 00:54:03,000
Speaker 2: I'll take the over. Yeah, I think I'm gonna go

962
00:54:03,040 --> 00:54:06,000
Speaker 2: with the under. Seahawks are gonna probably play Drew Locke

963
00:54:06,040 --> 00:54:10,680
Speaker 2: and Holton Akers most of the game. The Vikings they're

964
00:54:10,719 --> 00:54:12,560
Speaker 2: not gonna play Kirk Cussins, so you're gonna get stuck

965
00:54:12,600 --> 00:54:15,080
Speaker 2: with Nick Mullins and Jaron Hall. Feels like a low

966
00:54:15,120 --> 00:54:18,200
Speaker 2: scoring game to me, but you never know, so good luck, Nathan.

967

Speaker 7: and we got one more right now, I can screen

972
00:54:35,960 --> 00:54:37,520
Speaker 7: this guy, all.

976
00:54:48,520 --> 00:54:49,440
Speaker 2: Bernie's Trivia Game?

977
00:54:50,640 --> 00:54:52,080
Speaker 7: We got Kurt from California.

978
00:54:52,400 --> 00:54:56,920
Speaker 2: Oh, Kurt, he's been on before. Hi, Kurt, how are

979
00:54:56,960 --> 00:55:02,160
Speaker 2: you buddy? Looking for some competition in some way?

980
00:55:02,719 --> 00:55:03,720
Speaker 5: Volume five?

981
00:55:04,520 --> 00:55:06,000
Speaker 2: Yeah? There you go, all right, man.

982
00:55:07,520 --> 00:55:09,920
Speaker 7: So, what is the only team in the NFL to

983
00:55:09,960 --> 00:55:11,799
Speaker 7: neither host or play in the Super Bowl?

984
00:55:15,640 --> 00:55:23,279
Speaker 2: The Tampa Bay Buccaneers, get that buzzer. That would be

985
00:55:23,320 --> 00:55:26,240
Speaker 2: the Cleveland Browns. There's never been a Super Bowl in Cleveland,

986
00:55:26,320 --> 00:55:29,839
Speaker 2: and unfortunately Cleveland is never played in the game. I

987
00:55:29,880 --> 00:55:33,799
Speaker 2: didn't understand the question, bro, What did you understand the

988
00:55:33,840 --> 00:55:38,719
Speaker 2: question to be a team that played in the Super

989
00:55:38,800 --> 00:55:41,440
Speaker 2: Bowl in their home stadium? Oh? It was.

990
00:55:41,520 --> 00:55:43,360
Speaker 7: What is the only team in the NFL to neither

991
00:55:43,600 --> 00:55:45,080
Speaker 7: host or play in the Super Bowl?

992
00:55:45,160 --> 00:55:48,719
Speaker 2: Yeah? To neither? Yeah? All right, let's move on.

993
00:55:48,920 --> 00:55:51,080
Speaker 7: So the Mariners are taking on the Angels in Anaheim

994
00:55:51,080 --> 00:55:53,680
Speaker 7: at six h seven Pacific Standard time today. The over

995
00:55:53,760 --> 00:55:56,480
Speaker 7: under on runs is set at nine. Are you ripping

996
00:55:56,480 --> 00:55:57,759
Speaker 7: the over? Are you taking the under?

997
00:55:58,320 --> 00:56:04,000
Speaker 2: Over? This is an interesting one. The Mariners are marching

998
00:56:04,000 --> 00:56:07,000
Speaker 2: on a pretty good picture on George Kirby. I just

999
00:56:07,040 --> 00:56:09,359
Speaker 2: don't get the Angels, man. They've lost four in a row. Now,

1000
00:56:09,520 --> 00:56:12,640
Speaker 2: I mean, Tyler Anderson's capable of a good game. What

1001
00:56:12,719 --> 00:56:13,680
Speaker 2: was the total against Shay?

1002
00:56:14,600 --> 00:56:16,160
Speaker 7: The total was nine.

1003
00:56:17,200 --> 00:56:19,400
Speaker 2: I'm gonna hold my nose and go under, but h

1004
00:56:19,920 --> 00:56:22,080
Speaker 2: but good luck, buddy, and we'll see what happens. Maybe

1005
00:56:22,120 --> 00:56:25,040
Speaker 2: you'll you'll, maybe you're right. I'm gonna go under. Thanks,

1006
00:56:25,600 --> 00:56:28,600
Speaker 2: good evening, Okay, YouTube, thanks for checking in, man, appreciate it.

1007
00:56:29,600 --> 00:56:32,480
Speaker 2: All right, that's gonna do it for a week? Is

1008
00:56:32,520 --> 00:56:34,920
Speaker 2: it week four? Week five? Shaye? I forgot I think

1009
00:56:34,920 --> 00:56:35,480
Speaker 2: it's week four.

1010
00:56:35,520 --> 00:56:36,719
Speaker 7: I think it's week four too.

1011
00:56:36,800 --> 00:56:40,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, okay, all right, good, good job, good job, Shay.

1012
00:56:40,520 --> 00:56:42,120
Speaker 7: We had a we had a little hiccup there, but

1013
00:56:43,040 --> 00:56:44,120
Speaker 7: it was it was fun.

1014
00:56:44,440 --> 00:56:47,600
Speaker 2: It was still fun. It all worked out and UH

1015
00:56:47,640 --> 00:56:53,200
Speaker 2: onward and upward coming up. You know, I've spent a

1016
00:56:53,239 --> 00:56:57,359
Speaker 2: lot of time on US and UH and Sweden. But

1017
00:56:57,400 --> 00:57:00,640
Speaker 2: what's been really cool about this Women's Cup. There are

1018
00:57:00,680 --> 00:57:03,320
Speaker 2: three new faces this year. There are three new teams

1019
00:57:03,360 --> 00:57:06,560
Speaker 2: that are making their knockout stage debut, and you can't

1020
00:57:06,600 --> 00:57:08,800
Speaker 2: count any of them out. One was one hundred and

1021
00:57:08,840 --> 00:57:11,719
Speaker 2: fifty to one and they are in the knockout stage.

1022
00:57:12,080 --> 00:57:13,920
Speaker 2: So we'll bring you up to date on that as

1023
00:57:13,960 --> 00:57:16,440
Speaker 2: the World Cup continues. I'm Bernie Fraddle will come to

Speaker 2: Take you up to two am Pacific, five am Eastern.

1030
00:57:32,520 --> 00:57:34,520
Speaker 2: A lot of stuff to get to bottom of the hour.

1031
00:57:34,560 --> 00:57:38,040
Speaker 2: Which Major League teams made the right trades? Which missed

1032
00:57:38,040 --> 00:57:41,600
Speaker 2: the deadline? As we move onward and upward Major League Baseball.

1033
00:57:41,600 --> 00:57:44,520
Speaker 2: All right, the Winwoods World Cup. Plenty new faces. The

1034
00:57:44,520 --> 00:57:51,600
Speaker 2: EROUNDA sixteen got underway Saturday night. Spain took care of well,

1035
00:57:51,640 --> 00:57:55,080
Speaker 2: they beat somebody five to one. They just were Switzerland.

1036
00:57:55,160 --> 00:57:58,040
Speaker 2: I guess it was okay. But three new teams Morocco,

1037
00:57:58,160 --> 00:58:03,240
Speaker 2: Jamaica and South Africa making their first ever knockout stage debuts,

1038
00:58:04,080 --> 00:58:08,200
Speaker 2: and Canada, Germany and Brazil, all traditional powers. They're done.

1039
00:58:08,480 --> 00:58:12,400
Speaker 2: They're done like dinner. Germany qualified for every Women's World

1040
00:58:12,440 --> 00:58:15,600
Speaker 2: Cup and had never before been eliminated before the quarterfinals.

1041
00:58:16,200 --> 00:58:19,480
Speaker 2: On the other hand, Morocco, they're making their World Cup debut.

1042
00:58:19,600 --> 00:58:23,160
Speaker 2: Their only ranked seventy second in the world, only Zambia

1043
00:58:23,200 --> 00:58:25,560
Speaker 2: at seventy seven came into the tournament with the lower ranking.

1044
00:58:26,200 --> 00:58:28,320
Speaker 2: Give it up to the Moroccan players. They were so

1045
00:58:28,480 --> 00:58:31,800
Speaker 2: elated when they beat Germany, or checked that when the

1046
00:58:31,840 --> 00:58:35,240
Speaker 2: whistle blew in the Germany South Korean game that confirmed

1047
00:58:35,800 --> 00:58:38,840
Speaker 2: their advancement in Morocco, one of three African nations to

1048
00:58:38,920 --> 00:58:42,360
Speaker 2: advance to the knockout stage of the four that qualified

1049
00:58:42,360 --> 00:58:45,320
Speaker 2: for the tournament, along with South Africa Nigeria. South Africa

1050
00:58:45,360 --> 00:58:48,320
Speaker 2: playing in their second World Cup after losing all three

1051
00:58:48,360 --> 00:58:51,480
Speaker 2: matches when they debuted back in twenty nineteen, they advanced

1052
00:58:51,480 --> 00:58:54,760
Speaker 2: to the knockout stage a dramatic up set over Italy

1053
00:58:55,240 --> 00:58:58,080
Speaker 2: the other day. This is fun to watch all right.

1054
00:58:59,000 --> 00:59:03,240
Speaker 2: By the way, Nigeria also they find themselves in the

1055
00:59:03,360 --> 00:59:07,160
Speaker 2: knockoff stage. They're not really the same kind of underdog

1056
00:59:07,240 --> 00:59:11,080
Speaker 2: the other two teams are. They're called the super Falcons.

1057
00:59:11,120 --> 00:59:15,520
Speaker 2: They've participated in every Women's World Cup, reaching the quarterfinals

1058
00:59:15,560 --> 00:59:18,240
Speaker 2: back in nineteen ninety nine. That of course was the

1059
00:59:18,280 --> 00:59:25,120
Speaker 2: famous mia Ham Brandy Chastain team Julie Foudy, great group

1060
00:59:25,120 --> 00:59:28,200
Speaker 2: of girls, and then of course Nigeria made the round

1061
00:59:28,200 --> 00:59:31,640
Speaker 2: of sixteen and twenty nineteen. But leading up to the

1062
00:59:31,680 --> 00:59:34,440
Speaker 2: World Cup, and this is why this is special for Nigeria,

1063
00:59:35,080 --> 00:59:37,520
Speaker 2: they were kind of mirrored in a little bit of

1064
00:59:37,560 --> 00:59:42,160
Speaker 2: a pay dispute with their governing body of Nigeria. Even

1065
00:59:42,160 --> 00:59:45,040
Speaker 2: their coach, Randy Waldrom, just a couple of days before

1066
00:59:45,080 --> 00:59:47,680
Speaker 2: the tournament spoke out that he was owed money by

1067
00:59:47,720 --> 00:59:52,320
Speaker 2: the Nigerian Football Foundation. But the players, they blocked it out.

1068
00:59:52,880 --> 00:59:55,400
Speaker 2: They put the controversy behind them. They've played like a

1069
00:59:55,440 --> 00:59:59,240
Speaker 2: team of any distractions. They look to be the opposite

1070
00:59:59,280 --> 01:00:02,280
Speaker 2: of what the USA team looks in terms of their

1071
01:00:02,280 --> 01:00:06,600
Speaker 2: fluidity and their effort, just saying so we'll see what happens.

1072
01:00:06,680 --> 01:00:10,400
Speaker 2: Yet team making their first knockout stage appearances Jamaica. Remember

1073
01:00:10,400 --> 01:00:14,240
Speaker 2: the old Jamaica bopslit team. How about the Jamaican women's

1074
01:00:14,280 --> 01:00:20,040
Speaker 2: soccer team back in twenty nineteen. They got molliwopt, as

1075
01:00:20,120 --> 01:00:22,640
Speaker 2: Kevin would say, in all three of their group stage matches.

1076
01:00:23,240 --> 01:00:25,800
Speaker 2: But they've improved. They squeaked through to the round of sixteen.

1077
01:00:26,320 --> 01:00:28,760
Speaker 2: They had two nil mil draws and then they had one.

1078
01:00:28,800 --> 01:00:31,160
Speaker 2: Nothing went over Panama. That gets you in. That got

1079
01:00:31,240 --> 01:00:35,480
Speaker 2: the US in. Like Nigeria, the Jamaican team, they've also

1080
01:00:35,560 --> 01:00:39,520
Speaker 2: struggled with finances and funding. They actually went dormant for

1081
01:00:39,560 --> 01:00:43,680
Speaker 2: three years about ten years ago because the country's governing

1082
01:00:43,720 --> 01:00:46,680
Speaker 2: body refused to write checks and pate, you know, provide

1083
01:00:46,680 --> 01:00:51,400
Speaker 2: financial backing. So you know, hell of a hell of

1084
01:00:51,440 --> 01:00:55,320
Speaker 2: a effort, right, And I would say during their preparations

1085
01:00:55,320 --> 01:00:58,360
Speaker 2: for the previous World Cup, the coach had to pay

1086
01:00:58,400 --> 01:01:00,840
Speaker 2: for raincoats out of his own pocket. He bought them

1087
01:01:00,880 --> 01:01:03,320
Speaker 2: at costco with his own money. The players had to

1088
01:01:03,320 --> 01:01:05,400
Speaker 2: pay out of their own pocket to pay for their

1089
01:01:05,440 --> 01:01:09,160
Speaker 2: luggage on flights. The team had that resort to fundraising

1090
01:01:09,200 --> 01:01:12,480
Speaker 2: campaigns to raise money for the World Cup, and Adidas

1091
01:01:12,480 --> 01:01:15,960
Speaker 2: helped out. And I think Bob Marley's family helped to

1092
01:01:16,000 --> 01:01:18,600
Speaker 2: cover the cross of the costs of their training camp.

1093
01:01:19,040 --> 01:01:22,600
Speaker 2: That's amazing. Okay, So plenty of other countries making big strides.

1094
01:01:22,640 --> 01:01:26,080
Speaker 2: Columbia they're in their third World Cup. Switzerland they're done now,

1095
01:01:26,320 --> 01:01:29,080
Speaker 2: but they made just their second. So what's the moral

1096
01:01:29,120 --> 01:01:31,680
Speaker 2: of the story. Countries from around the world. They're beginning

1097
01:01:31,720 --> 01:01:34,640
Speaker 2: to take women's soccer more seriously. I think it's made

1098
01:01:34,640 --> 01:01:37,880
Speaker 2: for a much more exciting tournament. Although USA fans might

1099
01:01:37,920 --> 01:01:42,040
Speaker 2: not feel that way. We'll find out in about twenty

1100
01:01:42,080 --> 01:01:45,480
Speaker 2: four twenty five and a half hours. Here coming up,

1101
01:01:46,040 --> 01:01:49,600
Speaker 2: Which Major League Baseball teams made the right trades? Which

1102
01:01:49,640 --> 01:01:53,760
Speaker 2: teams missed the deadline? As the trade Major League Baseball

1103
01:01:53,800 --> 01:01:57,720
Speaker 2: deadline is behind this, it took place last Monday. We'll

1104
01:01:57,760 --> 01:02:00,400
Speaker 2: cover that in just a second, but first go back

1105
01:02:00,440 --> 01:02:03,200
Speaker 2: to our guy who is an expert at the whip

1106
01:02:03,200 --> 01:02:05,480
Speaker 2: in Nyanan. That would be Kevin Pickers with the latest.

1107
01:02:05,840 --> 01:02:09,400
Speaker 6: Well, Dodge and Padres both made trades towards the deadline.

1108
01:02:09,400 --> 01:02:11,800
Speaker 6: The Dodgers actually picking up a victory in San Diego

1109
01:02:11,800 --> 01:02:14,080
Speaker 6: on Friday night. They scored eight runs in the final

1110
01:02:14,080 --> 01:02:17,280
Speaker 6: two winnings, a ten to five victory for Los Angeles

1111
01:02:17,280 --> 01:02:20,320
Speaker 6: in San Diego. James outman rob Fernando Tazzis Junior of

1112
01:02:20,360 --> 01:02:23,080
Speaker 6: a home run and then subsequently hit one himself, So

1113
01:02:23,640 --> 01:02:26,200
Speaker 6: fourth straight victory there for the Dodgers. Seattle hit four

1114
01:02:26,200 --> 01:02:28,400
Speaker 6: home runs they pick up their third straight win. They

1115
01:02:28,440 --> 01:02:31,640
Speaker 6: beat the Angels nine to seven. Pirates defeated Milwaukee eight

1116
01:02:31,680 --> 01:02:33,640
Speaker 6: to four, but the Brewers still have a half game

1117
01:02:33,720 --> 01:02:36,680
Speaker 6: lead over Cincinnati in the NL Central as the Reds

1118
01:02:36,720 --> 01:02:40,040
Speaker 6: lost to Washington. Adolis Garcia hit two home runs for Texas.

1119
01:02:40,040 --> 01:02:42,920
Speaker 6: And a victory over Miami five home runs. For Toronto,

1120
01:02:43,240 --> 01:02:45,640
Speaker 6: they defeated Boston seven to three. They have a three

1121
01:02:45,640 --> 01:02:48,120
Speaker 6: game lead over the Red Sox for the final AL

1122
01:02:48,200 --> 01:02:52,479
Speaker 6: wildcard spot. You also had victories for Baltimore, Houston, and Cleveland. Utah,

1123
01:02:52,560 --> 01:02:55,200
Speaker 6: Arizona and Arizona State will officially become members of the

1124
01:02:55,200 --> 01:02:57,720
Speaker 6: Big Twelve at the start of the twenty twenty four

1125
01:02:57,800 --> 01:03:00,960
Speaker 6: academic year, while Oregon and Washington what joined USC and

1126
01:03:01,000 --> 01:03:03,800
Speaker 6: UCLA and joining the Big Ten will report from Yahoo

1127
01:03:03,800 --> 01:03:06,320
Speaker 6: Sports on Friday Night. Says the remaining four Pac twelve

1128
01:03:06,320 --> 01:03:09,280
Speaker 6: schools could merge with the Mountain West to form an

1129
01:03:09,280 --> 01:03:12,080
Speaker 6: alliance called the Pack fifteen. At the Women's World Cup

1130
01:03:12,120 --> 01:03:14,160
Speaker 6: on FS one, Norway and Japan will kick off their

1131
01:03:14,200 --> 01:03:16,560
Speaker 6: Round of sixteen matchup at the top of the hour

1132
01:03:16,600 --> 01:03:19,400
Speaker 6: on FS one, while the Netherlands will face South Africa

1133
01:03:19,440 --> 01:03:22,560
Speaker 6: at four pm Eastern on Fox. Earlier, Spain did Molly

1134
01:03:22,600 --> 01:03:26,760
Speaker 6: wap Switzerland five to one. Back to Bernie Friedam all right.

1135
01:03:26,560 --> 01:03:30,240
Speaker 2: Thanks Kevin, good stuff. And of course when it comes

1136
01:03:30,240 --> 01:03:32,200
Speaker 2: to the Whipny and A and the Potteries, they got

1137
01:03:32,200 --> 01:03:34,240
Speaker 2: that stinky leg going, don't they. I mean, they just

1138
01:03:34,560 --> 01:03:36,440
Speaker 2: I don't know, man, that team is a group of

1139
01:03:36,440 --> 01:03:38,440
Speaker 2: all stars. Again, get out of their own way, and

1140
01:03:38,480 --> 01:03:41,000
Speaker 2: so were the Mets. But last Monday, I give it up.

1141
01:03:41,040 --> 01:03:42,440
Speaker 2: The Mets did what they had to do. I know

1142
01:03:42,440 --> 01:03:44,680
Speaker 2: it wasn't an easy call. The Mets trade away six

1143
01:03:44,800 --> 01:03:48,400
Speaker 2: players from their big league roster. Hope may spring eternal

1144
01:03:48,480 --> 01:03:52,400
Speaker 2: in March, but it didn't. In July three, page three pitchers,

1145
01:03:52,400 --> 01:03:55,120
Speaker 2: the Mets said, goodbydu but they're all over the age

1146
01:03:55,160 --> 01:03:58,040
Speaker 2: of thirty eight. They were all heading for free agency

1147
01:03:58,160 --> 01:04:00,760
Speaker 2: or likely just simply not gonna be that much of

1148
01:04:00,800 --> 01:04:03,960
Speaker 2: a help in twenty twenty four. So they dealt with

1149
01:04:04,160 --> 01:04:07,600
Speaker 2: Justin Verlander and Max Schurzer. H And by the way,

1150
01:04:07,680 --> 01:04:10,800
Speaker 2: they're paying a total of about eighty seven million of

1151
01:04:10,840 --> 01:04:13,680
Speaker 2: their salar over the next couple of years. But they

1152
01:04:13,720 --> 01:04:19,280
Speaker 2: did get three solid prospects, all right. But you know

1153
01:04:19,400 --> 01:04:21,320
Speaker 2: their prospects for a reason. I'm not even gonna give

1154
01:04:21,320 --> 01:04:23,840
Speaker 2: you their names, although Drew Gilbert was a first round

1155
01:04:23,840 --> 01:04:27,520
Speaker 2: pick last year. Three prospects. We'll see what happens. You've

1156
01:04:27,560 --> 01:04:30,280
Speaker 2: heard me talk about that infamous Yankees trade back in

1157
01:04:30,280 --> 01:04:32,480
Speaker 2: twenty sixteen, when they got back eleven prospects. You only

1158
01:04:32,560 --> 01:04:35,680
Speaker 2: name one seven years later Glabor Torus and by the way,

1159
01:04:35,680 --> 01:04:37,280
Speaker 2: the Yankees having won a World Series in the last

1160
01:04:37,280 --> 01:04:40,240
Speaker 2: seven years. The Texas Rangers, by the way, again, I

1161
01:04:40,280 --> 01:04:41,840
Speaker 2: want to give the Mets credit. I'm not gonna I'm

1162
01:04:41,840 --> 01:04:45,800
Speaker 2: not gonna bag on them. They spread the wealth. One

1163
01:04:45,840 --> 01:04:48,520
Speaker 2: starter went to Texas, one went to Houston. But they look,

1164
01:04:48,520 --> 01:04:50,360
Speaker 2: Steve Coleen wants to build a winner. He said, this

1165
01:04:50,400 --> 01:04:52,840
Speaker 2: didn't work. Let's stop and start over. Give the guy

1166
01:04:52,880 --> 01:04:56,320
Speaker 2: credit for being decisive. The Rangers, the rich get richer.

1167
01:04:56,360 --> 01:04:58,400
Speaker 2: They got off to a crazy start, slid back to

1168
01:04:58,440 --> 01:04:59,880
Speaker 2: the point where they're kind of neck and neck with

1169
01:04:59,880 --> 01:05:02,200
Speaker 2: the Astros. They said, hell with it, We're going for it.

1170
01:05:02,240 --> 01:05:05,480
Speaker 2: Bruce Bochi's first year, they decided to go all in.

1171
01:05:05,520 --> 01:05:08,000
Speaker 2: They sent away three of their top prospects at a

1172
01:05:08,000 --> 01:05:11,400
Speaker 2: couple impacts, starting pitchers and Max Scherzer, who was shaky

1173
01:05:11,480 --> 01:05:14,640
Speaker 2: in the first inning and his inaugural start but got

1174
01:05:14,640 --> 01:05:17,680
Speaker 2: the w And they also get Jordan Montgomery. This is

1175
01:05:17,720 --> 01:05:20,040
Speaker 2: what I think more teams should do. If you're gonna

1176
01:05:20,040 --> 01:05:22,120
Speaker 2: go in, you're gonna go in right. The Rangers could

1177
01:05:22,120 --> 01:05:25,120
Speaker 2: have plodded along. It was supposed to be a rebuilding year,

1178
01:05:25,520 --> 01:05:27,760
Speaker 2: no one saw this coming in terms of how much

1179
01:05:27,760 --> 01:05:29,840
Speaker 2: success they've had. They were heading in the right direction.

1180
01:05:30,280 --> 01:05:33,120
Speaker 2: But to choose to go big in free agency, they

1181
01:05:33,120 --> 01:05:35,360
Speaker 2: saw the payoff all rady. This year, they went in further.

1182
01:05:35,720 --> 01:05:37,680
Speaker 2: They don't want to just get into the playoffs. They

1183
01:05:37,680 --> 01:05:39,160
Speaker 2: want to get as far as they can. The Texas

1184
01:05:39,280 --> 01:05:42,120
Speaker 2: Rangers have never won a World Series. Can't be the

1185
01:05:42,200 --> 01:05:45,800
Speaker 2: one strike, but baseball can be cruel. As Barthiamati once said,

1186
01:05:45,800 --> 01:05:48,960
Speaker 2: the games you decided to break your heart. The Nats

1187
01:05:49,280 --> 01:05:52,400
Speaker 2: got themselves a nice left handed third base hitter from

1188
01:05:52,440 --> 01:05:56,400
Speaker 2: the Tigers to Americ Candelario. I know that the Dodgers

1189
01:05:56,440 --> 01:05:58,560
Speaker 2: were very interested in him, but he ends up going

1190
01:05:58,600 --> 01:06:00,720
Speaker 2: to the Nationals. He would have been a free agent

1191
01:06:00,760 --> 01:06:04,840
Speaker 2: this winter. The Tigers designated him for assignment. The Tigers

1192
01:06:04,840 --> 01:06:07,760
Speaker 2: got the best out of him, all right. They flipped

1193
01:06:07,800 --> 01:06:12,120
Speaker 2: him to the Cubs a couple of interesting prospects. You know.

1194
01:06:12,160 --> 01:06:14,560
Speaker 2: The long and the short of it is the Nats,

1195
01:06:15,240 --> 01:06:18,640
Speaker 2: you know, they trade Hunter Harvey. He just didn't stay well,

1196
01:06:18,920 --> 01:06:22,600
Speaker 2: you know, healthy. But you know, the Nats are a

1197
01:06:22,680 --> 01:06:25,840
Speaker 2: team that's they're not going anywhere. It's going to be

1198
01:06:25,840 --> 01:06:28,200
Speaker 2: another year, and so they did what they needed to do.

1199
01:06:28,240 --> 01:06:30,360
Speaker 2: They end up with a couple of prospects. Will give

1200
01:06:30,400 --> 01:06:33,160
Speaker 2: them a w because they tried to make themselves better

1201
01:06:33,200 --> 01:06:35,120
Speaker 2: for the future. That's what you do with the trade deadline.

1202
01:06:35,120 --> 01:06:37,600
Speaker 2: All right. Now, you hear the term buyers or sellers.

1203
01:06:37,600 --> 01:06:40,720
Speaker 2: I never liked that term. You make a deal depending

1204
01:06:40,760 --> 01:06:43,200
Speaker 2: on where you are in this stage of your organization.

1205
01:06:43,680 --> 01:06:47,400
Speaker 2: The Rangers, no, Rangers checked that. The Rangers, yes, the

1206
01:06:47,440 --> 01:06:50,040
Speaker 2: Mats no, the Nationals no. So look ahead to next year.

1207
01:06:50,520 --> 01:06:55,040
Speaker 2: Now the Milwaukee Brewers, they have really come on. They're

1208
01:06:55,040 --> 01:06:56,680
Speaker 2: given the Reds a hell of a run for the money.

1209
01:06:56,720 --> 01:06:58,720
Speaker 2: The Brewers always do this. They make these small little

1210
01:06:58,760 --> 01:07:02,480
Speaker 2: improvements around the margin. They give up no significant prospects.

1211
01:07:02,480 --> 01:07:06,920
Speaker 2: And on paper, on paper, the Brewers, and now this

1212
01:07:07,000 --> 01:07:09,480
Speaker 2: may be a bull statement. Maybe they're better than the Reds.

1213
01:07:09,600 --> 01:07:11,920
Speaker 2: They may be better than Reds on paper, they may

1214
01:07:11,920 --> 01:07:13,920
Speaker 2: be the best team in the nf Central. On paper,

1215
01:07:13,960 --> 01:07:17,920
Speaker 2: they add Mark Canna, Carlos Santana, and Andrew Chafin. The

1216
01:07:17,960 --> 01:07:19,720
Speaker 2: best guy they had to give up was an eighteen

1217
01:07:19,800 --> 01:07:23,360
Speaker 2: year old infield prospect named Johnny Severino. You've never heard

1218
01:07:23,400 --> 01:07:25,439
Speaker 2: of him ivan either. Maybe he'll get to the big

1219
01:07:25,520 --> 01:07:29,640
Speaker 2: league someday he's years away. And so if you're thinking about,

1220
01:07:29,680 --> 01:07:33,480
Speaker 2: you know, Lou Brock for Ermi Brolio or Doyle Alexander

1221
01:07:34,000 --> 01:07:36,520
Speaker 2: for John Smoltz back in eighty seven, and I'll still

1222
01:07:36,560 --> 01:07:39,000
Speaker 2: defend the Tigers on that to this day, you're not

1223
01:07:39,040 --> 01:07:43,520
Speaker 2: gonna know for years. So the additions are relatively minor,

1224
01:07:44,160 --> 01:07:48,000
Speaker 2: but all three help address their needs right field dh

1225
01:07:48,240 --> 01:07:49,960
Speaker 2: those are a couple of voids the team has had

1226
01:07:50,000 --> 01:07:52,600
Speaker 2: this year, and they get an effective lefty in their

1227
01:07:52,600 --> 01:07:56,360
Speaker 2: bullpen and Hoby Milner. So look, the Brewers are trying

1228
01:07:56,360 --> 01:07:58,920
Speaker 2: to do what they need to do. They're a competitor

1229
01:07:58,960 --> 01:08:02,680
Speaker 2: in the Divisionnanty ridds. How do you do nothing at

1230
01:08:02,680 --> 01:08:06,600
Speaker 2: the deadline? Basically, Okay, they made one tiny deal they

1231
01:08:06,640 --> 01:08:08,800
Speaker 2: had They had a reliever, a lefty by the name

1232
01:08:08,840 --> 01:08:11,600
Speaker 2: of Sam Mule. But they're in first place in a

1233
01:08:11,640 --> 01:08:14,560
Speaker 2: division that's gonna be a dog fight. You are now

1234
01:08:14,600 --> 01:08:16,320
Speaker 2: one of the dog days this summer, and it's going

1235
01:08:16,360 --> 01:08:18,559
Speaker 2: to be a dog fight. You're gonna duke it out

1236
01:08:18,600 --> 01:08:20,840
Speaker 2: with the Brewers. There are one game behind in the

1237
01:08:20,920 --> 01:08:24,080
Speaker 2: lost column column on on on the trade deadline day.

1238
01:08:25,200 --> 01:08:27,439
Speaker 2: Maybe they're a little bit stronger on paper Now, the

1239
01:08:27,520 --> 01:08:30,679
Speaker 2: Reds have needs that could have addressed, including their starting rotation,

1240
01:08:31,880 --> 01:08:35,920
Speaker 2: and uh, you know, the Reds have surpluses that they

1241
01:08:35,960 --> 01:08:40,160
Speaker 2: could deal, particularly in the infield. It's a little surprising

1242
01:08:40,200 --> 01:08:42,519
Speaker 2: the Reds didn't add anything that they're starting pitching or

1243
01:08:42,600 --> 01:08:45,559
Speaker 2: get pitching pitching as well, because Andrew Rabbit's really their

1244
01:08:45,600 --> 01:08:47,880
Speaker 2: only healthy starter and he's got a he got a

1245
01:08:47,880 --> 01:08:50,720
Speaker 2: sub four e ra. Now, but you're getting ready, it's

1246
01:08:50,720 --> 01:08:53,400
Speaker 2: gonna get real. You're gonna they're gonna feel real pressure.

1247
01:08:53,479 --> 01:08:56,720
Speaker 2: So it feels like the Reds missed. But listen, they

1248
01:08:56,760 --> 01:08:58,960
Speaker 2: make the decisions they believe that they need to make,

1249
01:08:59,520 --> 01:09:01,640
Speaker 2: and they're not gonna listen to me. How about the

1250
01:09:01,680 --> 01:09:04,720
Speaker 2: Cleveland Guardians. I think the Guardians did pretty well in

1251
01:09:04,760 --> 01:09:07,080
Speaker 2: their trades. They had a solid prospect. They get cal

1252
01:09:07,200 --> 01:09:11,720
Speaker 2: Manzardo for Aaron Saval. They had a prospect who's at

1253
01:09:11,720 --> 01:09:14,000
Speaker 2: the kind of the bottom of his value named Khalil Watson.

1254
01:09:14,240 --> 01:09:16,640
Speaker 2: But they shipped Josh Bell to Miami and they got

1255
01:09:16,680 --> 01:09:18,519
Speaker 2: to take on Jean Segura's contract, so they made a

1256
01:09:18,520 --> 01:09:21,320
Speaker 2: lot of moves. All right. Now, that would be nice

1257
01:09:21,880 --> 01:09:24,679
Speaker 2: if the Guardians were a positioned to sell, but they're

1258
01:09:24,680 --> 01:09:26,879
Speaker 2: one game ont of first place. I understand their situation

1259
01:09:27,000 --> 01:09:30,280
Speaker 2: is a little different. Shane Bieber is out for a

1260
01:09:30,320 --> 01:09:31,800
Speaker 2: long time, but I don't think he's gonna be out

1261
01:09:31,800 --> 01:09:35,400
Speaker 2: for the whole season. All Right, They could have sold,

1262
01:09:35,439 --> 01:09:38,720
Speaker 2: they could have turned some other things around. You look

1263
01:09:38,760 --> 01:09:41,400
Speaker 2: at the way that Tampa Bay Rays handle their trade deadlines.

1264
01:09:41,439 --> 01:09:44,160
Speaker 2: They just seem to do it right every time. Cleveland said,

1265
01:09:44,160 --> 01:09:45,840
Speaker 2: we're just gonna sell, so they're better off in the

1266
01:09:45,880 --> 01:09:49,000
Speaker 2: long term. But all of a sudden, they're basically saying,

1267
01:09:49,000 --> 01:09:50,760
Speaker 2: we're not so sure we're gonna win in twenty twenty three.

1268
01:09:50,800 --> 01:09:53,640
Speaker 2: So if you're a Cleveland fan, not only if you

1269
01:09:53,680 --> 01:09:56,280
Speaker 2: never won a Super Bowl, but you haven't won a

1270
01:09:56,280 --> 01:10:00,679
Speaker 2: World Series since what nineteen? Well, no, they I guess

1271
01:10:00,680 --> 01:10:06,000
Speaker 2: it's the fifties. Well, regardless, the bottom line is this,

1272
01:10:06,560 --> 01:10:09,759
Speaker 2: I don't think Cleveland did well at the trade deadline. Finally,

1273
01:10:10,400 --> 01:10:13,880
Speaker 2: the Minnesota Twins, they didn't exactly do anything to add either.

1274
01:10:13,960 --> 01:10:16,040
Speaker 2: So I guess the Al Century is going to be

1275
01:10:16,080 --> 01:10:19,280
Speaker 2: the battle of who couldn't care less. You got three teams,

1276
01:10:19,680 --> 01:10:22,280
Speaker 2: two were sellers. That leaves the Twins and Guardians to

1277
01:10:22,320 --> 01:10:25,000
Speaker 2: fight it out for the division title. Obviously, the Tigers

1278
01:10:25,000 --> 01:10:27,840
Speaker 2: were sellers. They're not going to be a team this year, right,

1279
01:10:28,520 --> 01:10:30,639
Speaker 2: Either one of those teams could have put some real

1280
01:10:30,680 --> 01:10:34,200
Speaker 2: distance between themselves and their rivals if they could have

1281
01:10:34,240 --> 01:10:36,720
Speaker 2: just made a couple of big, splashy moves like the

1282
01:10:36,840 --> 01:10:39,479
Speaker 2: Rangers did with Austin Hedges, or if the Oils did

1283
01:10:39,479 --> 01:10:43,920
Speaker 2: with Jack Flaherty or the Astros with Justin Verlander. So

1284
01:10:44,720 --> 01:10:46,800
Speaker 2: there you have it, all right, the trade deadline is

1285
01:10:46,840 --> 01:10:50,559
Speaker 2: coming gone. Sometimes the fortunes of teams can change during

1286
01:10:50,600 --> 01:10:53,160
Speaker 2: the trade deadline. I'm not so sure if that's gonna

1287
01:10:53,200 --> 01:10:57,400
Speaker 2: happen this year, but be that as it may. Let's

1288
01:10:57,439 --> 01:10:59,840
Speaker 2: take a look coming up at some of the end

1289
01:10:59,840 --> 01:11:03,640
Speaker 2: of visual players. Because the Blue Jays were active, the

1290
01:11:03,720 --> 01:11:09,760
Speaker 2: Astros Oriols, Rangers were active, Yankees not so much. We'll

1291
01:11:09,800 --> 01:11:14,040
Speaker 2: call them all into question. Coming up tonight show brought

Speaker 2: coming up top of the hour. You know there's an

1303
01:11:48,120 --> 01:11:50,800
Speaker 2: old thing burning down your neighbor's house. Doesn't make yours

1304
01:11:50,800 --> 01:11:54,479
Speaker 2: looking prettier? Sean Payton kind of did that. I'm gonna

1305
01:11:54,520 --> 01:11:59,280
Speaker 2: give you my two cents, all right. Look, for some reason,

1306
01:12:00,479 --> 01:12:03,080
Speaker 2: the same major league teams year and year out seem

1307
01:12:03,120 --> 01:12:05,360
Speaker 2: to make good decisions at the trade deadline, and the

1308
01:12:05,439 --> 01:12:08,880
Speaker 2: same ones not so much. I'm not gonna mention any names.

1309
01:12:08,960 --> 01:12:12,320
Speaker 2: New York Yankees they had Look, Yankees, you fall into

1310
01:12:12,320 --> 01:12:16,360
Speaker 2: the thumbs down category. I'm sorry, you have issues. Okay,

1311
01:12:16,439 --> 01:12:19,560
Speaker 2: you're you're only a couple of games back in the

1312
01:12:19,560 --> 01:12:24,080
Speaker 2: final wildcard spot. It's not insurmountable, but you need you

1313
01:12:24,120 --> 01:12:27,160
Speaker 2: need help on offense, and you need help in your

1314
01:12:27,160 --> 01:12:29,720
Speaker 2: starting rotation. You didn't, you didn't really do anything to

1315
01:12:29,800 --> 01:12:35,240
Speaker 2: address that. You know who did? The Astros Justin Verlander returns.

1316
01:12:35,800 --> 01:12:38,519
Speaker 2: This trade actually ended up making a lot of sense

1317
01:12:38,600 --> 01:12:42,559
Speaker 2: now that you analyze it. Okay, Houston's had some injuries,

1318
01:12:42,560 --> 01:12:46,960
Speaker 2: but even with them, they're Astros. Their rotation has been fine.

1319
01:12:47,160 --> 01:12:50,160
Speaker 2: Even without Verlander. You had a cumulative v a third

1320
01:12:50,160 --> 01:12:53,400
Speaker 2: of the major three point eight one from Waldez just

1321
01:12:53,439 --> 01:12:56,519
Speaker 2: threw a no hitter last week. But there's no such

1322
01:12:56,560 --> 01:13:00,000
Speaker 2: thing as having too much pitching, and Verlander hasn't been

1323
01:13:00,240 --> 01:13:03,000
Speaker 2: is unhittable while he was with the Mets, says he

1324
01:13:03,080 --> 01:13:07,120
Speaker 2: was with the Astros last year. He's a guy. There's

1325
01:13:07,120 --> 01:13:09,439
Speaker 2: an old thing I have about a player. You may

1326
01:13:09,520 --> 01:13:11,120
Speaker 2: or may not want him on your team, but you

1327
01:13:11,200 --> 01:13:13,559
Speaker 2: don't necessarily want to have to play against him. And

1328
01:13:13,600 --> 01:13:17,000
Speaker 2: that's how I put justin Verlander, this lateness current. I

1329
01:13:17,040 --> 01:13:19,240
Speaker 2: covered him in Detroit, and he knows how to pitch,

1330
01:13:19,800 --> 01:13:21,880
Speaker 2: and he knows how to pitch in big games, and

1331
01:13:21,920 --> 01:13:24,439
Speaker 2: he knows how to pitch in the postseason. And by

1332
01:13:24,439 --> 01:13:27,360
Speaker 2: the way, the askers are gonna get Jose Yakuti soon.

1333
01:13:27,720 --> 01:13:30,920
Speaker 2: He's been back, he's been out a while. This Astros

1334
01:13:31,000 --> 01:13:34,720
Speaker 2: rotation got a boost. They're gonna be very tough out

1335
01:13:34,720 --> 01:13:37,400
Speaker 2: in the playoffs. How about those Baltimore Orioles got their

1336
01:13:37,439 --> 01:13:39,839
Speaker 2: seventieth win, got the best record in the American League,

1337
01:13:40,400 --> 01:13:44,640
Speaker 2: but their starting rotation, frankly has been average sixteenth to

1338
01:13:44,720 --> 01:13:48,960
Speaker 2: the majors four point five ERA. So who do they get?

1339
01:13:49,080 --> 01:13:52,160
Speaker 2: Jack Flaherty. I think it's a good move, not that

1340
01:13:52,200 --> 01:13:55,320
Speaker 2: he's been dominant as he was in his breakout season

1341
01:13:55,360 --> 01:13:58,599
Speaker 2: a couple of years ago, but Flarity gives the Oriols.

1342
01:13:58,600 --> 01:14:01,880
Speaker 2: I think another decent star under the reliable starter. He'll

1343
01:14:01,880 --> 01:14:05,040
Speaker 2: be crucial in the playoffs. Austin Hedges going to the

1344
01:14:05,120 --> 01:14:09,320
Speaker 2: Rangers Texas filled in need. They had a serious needed

1345
01:14:09,400 --> 01:14:12,240
Speaker 2: catcher after Jonah him, their all star catcher, went on

1346
01:14:12,280 --> 01:14:14,320
Speaker 2: the injured list a couple of weeks ago with a wristtrain.

1347
01:14:14,880 --> 01:14:17,960
Speaker 2: He's you know, not gonna have surgery until after the season,

1348
01:14:18,280 --> 01:14:20,639
Speaker 2: but he's still going to miss about three weeks. Well

1349
01:14:20,640 --> 01:14:23,080
Speaker 2: in those three weeks, that could cost you a lot, right,

1350
01:14:23,120 --> 01:14:26,360
Speaker 2: So there's no there's no real way to replace Hime

1351
01:14:26,840 --> 01:14:32,360
Speaker 2: and his offense, But losing him also has serious defensive implications.

1352
01:14:33,080 --> 01:14:36,639
Speaker 2: It's because you know, they keep these weird stats now

1353
01:14:36,640 --> 01:14:39,439
Speaker 2: about pitch framing. You know, when a catcher frames a

1354
01:14:39,479 --> 01:14:41,920
Speaker 2: strike to make it look might have been a little outside,

1355
01:14:41,920 --> 01:14:43,400
Speaker 2: but he frames it and gets it over the plate.

1356
01:14:44,320 --> 01:14:47,679
Speaker 2: And he he ranks very high in what you would

1357
01:14:47,720 --> 01:14:50,920
Speaker 2: call the Fangraft framing metric, which gives me a headache

1358
01:14:50,960 --> 01:14:53,840
Speaker 2: just to say that, but it's it's a real stat, right,

1359
01:14:53,880 --> 01:14:56,599
Speaker 2: and it's a metric among catchers with one hundred innings

1360
01:14:56,600 --> 01:14:59,760
Speaker 2: behind the plate. Now, Hedges is a terrible hitter, but

1361
01:14:59,800 --> 01:15:02,360
Speaker 2: he's better at framing pitches than any catcher in the

1362
01:15:02,400 --> 01:15:05,920
Speaker 2: major leagues. So you add him in the major leagues,

1363
01:15:06,120 --> 01:15:09,559
Speaker 2: saving a run is every bit is important as scoring

1364
01:15:09,600 --> 01:15:15,280
Speaker 2: a run. So adding Austin Hedges to you know, at

1365
01:15:15,360 --> 01:15:18,200
Speaker 2: least bridge that gap for the next three weeks. He's

1366
01:15:18,200 --> 01:15:20,000
Speaker 2: going to be a boots to the boost to the

1367
01:15:20,040 --> 01:15:24,400
Speaker 2: Texas Rangers pitching staff. And besides, Texas has plenty of

1368
01:15:24,400 --> 01:15:28,599
Speaker 2: offensive firepower to keep it going without. You don't worrying

1369
01:15:28,600 --> 01:15:30,720
Speaker 2: about if Hedges has to hit, He'll hit in the

1370
01:15:30,800 --> 01:15:36,360
Speaker 2: ninth spot, right, So that's a great move. The Blue

1371
01:15:36,479 --> 01:15:39,360
Speaker 2: Jays continue to be very, very pesky. They just took

1372
01:15:39,479 --> 01:15:42,760
Speaker 2: two or three from the Angels Toronto. They pick up

1373
01:15:42,760 --> 01:15:46,760
Speaker 2: Paul de Jong. And here's what's interesting about that. I

1374
01:15:46,840 --> 01:15:50,599
Speaker 2: remember years ago the trade deadline was July thirty, first

1375
01:15:51,880 --> 01:15:54,720
Speaker 2: now it's August first, and the Blue Jays benefit from that.

1376
01:15:54,760 --> 01:15:58,160
Speaker 2: They took advantage of it because what happened was bulbushet

1377
01:15:58,280 --> 01:16:01,439
Speaker 2: their shortstop on Monday night's game, he exits with the

1378
01:16:01,520 --> 01:16:06,320
Speaker 2: knee injury, and that really sort of changed deadline day,

1379
01:16:06,760 --> 01:16:09,400
Speaker 2: which was Tuesday, in terms of how the Blue Jays

1380
01:16:09,439 --> 01:16:12,599
Speaker 2: looked at that, and the Blue Jay says, okay, well,

1381
01:16:12,920 --> 01:16:14,759
Speaker 2: as a result of that, we better do something because

1382
01:16:15,920 --> 01:16:19,960
Speaker 2: even though bul Bashett is a key cog in their

1383
01:16:20,000 --> 01:16:22,280
Speaker 2: lineup and he's fortunately not having to go to the

1384
01:16:22,280 --> 01:16:25,760
Speaker 2: injury list, if he sidelined for any significant amount of time,

1385
01:16:26,040 --> 01:16:28,639
Speaker 2: that's trouble. He leaves the American League with the three

1386
01:16:28,680 --> 01:16:31,880
Speaker 2: twenty one batting average. The Jays really didn't have another

1387
01:16:31,920 --> 01:16:35,479
Speaker 2: internal option to replace his level of offensive production. So

1388
01:16:36,160 --> 01:16:40,760
Speaker 2: Paul de Jong, he's nowhere near the hitter that Bulbachette is.

1389
01:16:40,800 --> 01:16:44,360
Speaker 2: But again, guess what this is shrewd. Paul de Jong

1390
01:16:44,439 --> 01:16:47,880
Speaker 2: is among the best defensive shortstops in the major leagues and,

1391
01:16:47,920 --> 01:16:51,080
Speaker 2: by the way, a significant upgrade over Bashett Among the

1392
01:16:51,080 --> 01:16:53,600
Speaker 2: forty three short stops at least two hundred innings. The

1393
01:16:53,720 --> 01:16:57,880
Speaker 2: Jong ranked sixth in Baseball's fielding run value Bashett is

1394
01:16:57,920 --> 01:17:01,280
Speaker 2: thirty eighth. Those are the moves you to keep your

1395
01:17:01,320 --> 01:17:06,599
Speaker 2: head above water. So back to the Yankees. Look, most

1396
01:17:06,640 --> 01:17:08,799
Speaker 2: people aren't going to have any sympathy for the Yankees,

1397
01:17:09,400 --> 01:17:12,320
Speaker 2: but it's a little head scratching that their record, which

1398
01:17:12,400 --> 01:17:15,720
Speaker 2: was fifty five and fifty two at the trade deadline

1399
01:17:16,160 --> 01:17:19,160
Speaker 2: and they lost three straight heading into the trade deadline,

1400
01:17:19,600 --> 01:17:22,160
Speaker 2: would have been the best in the American League Central.

1401
01:17:22,360 --> 01:17:25,960
Speaker 2: But it hasn't last in the American League East. However,

1402
01:17:26,920 --> 01:17:28,720
Speaker 2: still only three and a half games out of the

1403
01:17:28,720 --> 01:17:35,120
Speaker 2: final wildcard spot. Can you overcome that? You can in theory,

1404
01:17:35,200 --> 01:17:38,200
Speaker 2: But the Yankees have a lot of obvious holes, which

1405
01:17:38,240 --> 01:17:42,840
Speaker 2: I mentioned earlier, particularly on offense see money Can't Buy Love.

1406
01:17:42,920 --> 01:17:45,719
Speaker 2: Did you know that at the trade deadline, the top

1407
01:17:45,760 --> 01:17:49,000
Speaker 2: three payroll teams had won ten less games than the

1408
01:17:49,040 --> 01:17:54,040
Speaker 2: bottom three payroll teams. Yeah, that's baseball for you. So

1409
01:17:54,080 --> 01:17:56,680
Speaker 2: the long and the short of it is the Yankees,

1410
01:17:57,080 --> 01:17:59,760
Speaker 2: you would think should have attempted to improve in those

1411
01:17:59,800 --> 01:18:03,960
Speaker 2: area is or acknowledge, fine, we're not ready to compete

1412
01:18:03,960 --> 01:18:06,840
Speaker 2: this year. Will become sellers at the deadline. They didn't either.

1413
01:18:08,160 --> 01:18:10,559
Speaker 2: The Yankees aren't sellers. They tried that in twenty sixteen,

1414
01:18:10,640 --> 01:18:13,160
Speaker 2: I told you what happened, got back eleven prospects. Seven

1415
01:18:13,240 --> 01:18:16,439
Speaker 2: years later, still looking for another World Series, only labor

1416
01:18:16,479 --> 01:18:20,920
Speaker 2: tourists worked out. So I think you know I'll at

1417
01:18:21,000 --> 01:18:24,040
Speaker 2: least report that the Yankees did make two trades on Tuesday.

1418
01:18:24,280 --> 01:18:27,240
Speaker 2: They got to receive a reliever from the White Sox

1419
01:18:27,320 --> 01:18:30,839
Speaker 2: named Kenyon Middleton and one from the Rangers named Spencer Howard.

1420
01:18:31,120 --> 01:18:33,160
Speaker 2: Most of those guys have spent this year in the miners,

1421
01:18:33,840 --> 01:18:37,240
Speaker 2: so it's an odd approach. It's a conservative approach, and

1422
01:18:37,280 --> 01:18:40,920
Speaker 2: I will tell you the Yankee fan faithful. They are

1423
01:18:40,960 --> 01:18:44,880
Speaker 2: fuming about this team. They're not happy about this team.

1424
01:18:45,320 --> 01:18:47,320
Speaker 2: So I don't think the Yankees did much at the

1425
01:18:47,360 --> 01:18:49,880
Speaker 2: trade deadline. Coming up, my thoughts on Sean Payton and

1426
01:18:49,880 --> 01:18:53,040

01:20:06,439 --> 01:20:10,479
Speaker 2: Why right, Sean Payton, There's an old saying burning down

1450
01:20:10,520 --> 01:20:14,320
Speaker 2: your neighbor's house doesn't make yours look any better. My

1451
01:20:14,400 --> 01:20:16,960
Speaker 2: two cents and I got to kick out of what

1452
01:20:17,040 --> 01:20:19,280
Speaker 2: Colin said I don't disagree with him, right, he said, Hey,

1453
01:20:19,320 --> 01:20:22,840
Speaker 2: what's a big deal Hacket stunk. You saw it. We

1454
01:20:22,960 --> 01:20:25,559
Speaker 2: all saw it. Let's face it, we heard it, you

1455
01:20:25,600 --> 01:20:30,000
Speaker 2: saw it. Whatever. Okay, fair enough, I guess. Except my

1456
01:20:30,160 --> 01:20:32,720
Speaker 2: feeling is, if you really want to go on a

1457
01:20:32,800 --> 01:20:35,559
Speaker 2: diet tribe like that, which, believe me, you don't want

1458
01:20:35,560 --> 01:20:37,000
Speaker 2: to know some of the things that are really said

1459
01:20:37,040 --> 01:20:39,320
Speaker 2: in locker rooms that people can't hear, you don't want

1460
01:20:39,320 --> 01:20:43,599
Speaker 2: to know. That's the point. Keep it in house. If

1461
01:20:43,640 --> 01:20:46,080
Speaker 2: you're going to make a message of that nature that's

1462
01:20:46,080 --> 01:20:50,719
Speaker 2: that salacious, keep it in house. I get it. All leaders,

1463
01:20:51,320 --> 01:20:53,320
Speaker 2: they want to win their team's respect right out of

1464
01:20:53,360 --> 01:20:55,880
Speaker 2: the way, right off the bat. Okay, you want to

1465
01:20:55,880 --> 01:20:59,759
Speaker 2: make that first impression with your new crew, But trashing

1466
01:20:59,800 --> 01:21:03,960
Speaker 2: your predecessor, that's a way to set yourself up as

1467
01:21:04,080 --> 01:21:06,559
Speaker 2: what you want to be, the great Savior and you're

1468
01:21:06,600 --> 01:21:10,280
Speaker 2: going to, you know, return the king and his kingdom

1469
01:21:10,400 --> 01:21:14,960
Speaker 2: to the place of glory. It's unprofessional and I believe

1470
01:21:15,000 --> 01:21:20,520
Speaker 2: it's backfired on Sean Payton. I really do. He's backpedaled

1471
01:21:20,520 --> 01:21:25,280
Speaker 2: a little. He's the new coach of the Broncos. He

1472
01:21:25,320 --> 01:21:27,679
Speaker 2: steps right in and he completely rips the guy who

1473
01:21:27,720 --> 01:21:30,680
Speaker 2: had his job. He calls Nathaniel Hacket, I think is

1474
01:21:30,720 --> 01:21:33,559
Speaker 2: the worst of the bad actors responsible for the Denver woes.

1475
01:21:34,080 --> 01:21:37,080
Speaker 2: No question said quote, there's twenty dirty hands for what

1476
01:21:37,160 --> 01:21:40,360
Speaker 2: was allowed in the freaking dressing room. Peyton went on

1477
01:21:40,400 --> 01:21:43,599
Speaker 2: and on, made some technical points about the Broncos offensive woes,

1478
01:21:44,040 --> 01:21:46,360
Speaker 2: but he then he delivers the coop de grass, saying

1479
01:21:46,360 --> 01:21:48,879
Speaker 2: it was the worst coaching job or maybe, I'm sorry,

1480
01:21:49,160 --> 01:21:51,200
Speaker 2: one of the worst coaching jobs in the history of

1481
01:21:51,200 --> 01:21:55,400
Speaker 2: the NFL. That's how bad it was. The truth of

1482
01:21:55,439 --> 01:22:00,840
Speaker 2: the matter is I'm being honest. I think Peyton's comment

1483
01:22:00,920 --> 01:22:04,760
Speaker 2: was one of the worst breaches of professionalism by not

1484
01:22:04,920 --> 01:22:08,559
Speaker 2: just someone who would be an NFL coach, but imagine

1485
01:22:08,600 --> 01:22:10,920
Speaker 2: if you're you know, you're working at IBM or wherever

1486
01:22:10,960 --> 01:22:13,519
Speaker 2: you work, and your new boss comes in and maybe

1487
01:22:13,560 --> 01:22:17,680
Speaker 2: the last boss wasn't that great, maybe he didn't have

1488
01:22:18,040 --> 01:22:23,160
Speaker 2: very much success, and maybe he looked overmatched. But the

1489
01:22:23,200 --> 01:22:30,000
Speaker 2: new guy comes in and starts torturing him. I think

1490
01:22:30,040 --> 01:22:32,679
Speaker 2: it's a I think it's a breach of professionalism. Okay,

1491
01:22:33,560 --> 01:22:36,000
Speaker 2: And there are now, to be fair, there are a

1492
01:22:36,000 --> 01:22:39,479
Speaker 2: lot of folks who rush to Peyton's defense, they pointed

1493
01:22:39,560 --> 01:22:41,679
Speaker 2: that he was just simply being intentional in his remarks.

1494
01:22:41,680 --> 01:22:44,679
Speaker 2: He was trying to draw attention to himself and shield

1495
01:22:44,720 --> 01:22:46,840
Speaker 2: his players and protect their egos and say, it's not

1496
01:22:46,880 --> 01:22:50,719
Speaker 2: your fault, not your fault, Guys, your prior coach sucked,

1497
01:22:50,760 --> 01:22:54,360
Speaker 2: it wasn't your fault. You know. It's like Sean McGuire

1498
01:22:54,520 --> 01:22:57,080
Speaker 2: hugging will hunting and good will hunting at the end,

1499
01:22:57,120 --> 01:23:00,280
Speaker 2: it's not your fault. Son, It's not your fault, all right,

1500
01:23:00,520 --> 01:23:03,000
Speaker 2: if you want a grandstand like that. And I respect

1501
01:23:03,000 --> 01:23:05,400
Speaker 2: Sean Payton. He's a Bill Parcells disciple. I don't think

1502
01:23:05,439 --> 01:23:08,000
Speaker 2: Bill Parcells would have done this. Remember if Peyton's won

1503
01:23:08,000 --> 01:23:09,840
Speaker 2: a Super Bowl. Peyton knows a thing or two. Man,

1504
01:23:09,880 --> 01:23:13,640
Speaker 2: he's a sharp guy. That's why this diatribe to me.

1505
01:23:13,720 --> 01:23:15,479
Speaker 2: I don't know if it's out a character, but it's

1506
01:23:15,520 --> 01:23:18,840
Speaker 2: just it's not becoming of who I envision that Sean

1507
01:23:18,880 --> 01:23:22,439
Speaker 2: Payton would be. And maybe his intentions were good, that

1508
01:23:22,520 --> 01:23:24,600
Speaker 2: he wanted to try to build up their players and

1509
01:23:24,680 --> 01:23:29,519
Speaker 2: protect their egos and shield them. And maybe there's even

1510
01:23:29,520 --> 01:23:31,960
Speaker 2: been some people that didn't know that. Sean Payton wondered

1511
01:23:32,400 --> 01:23:34,960
Speaker 2: did he not know he was on the record. Did

1512
01:23:35,040 --> 01:23:36,880
Speaker 2: he not know he was talking to a reporter who

1513
01:23:37,120 --> 01:23:40,400
Speaker 2: did it was gonna get out there. Okay, that's why

1514
01:23:40,400 --> 01:23:41,960
Speaker 2: I said, if you're gonna do that, you keep it

1515
01:23:41,960 --> 01:23:45,320
Speaker 2: in house. You don't let it get out there. But

1516
01:23:45,360 --> 01:23:49,400
Speaker 2: at this point it doesn't matter. The problem is when

1517
01:23:49,439 --> 01:23:53,360
Speaker 2: you try to position yourself with your new employer and

1518
01:23:53,400 --> 01:23:57,800
Speaker 2: get and everybody's good graces by dissing the person you replaced,

1519
01:23:58,680 --> 01:24:03,120
Speaker 2: you're gonna throw shade on your predecessor. Remember this now,

1520
01:24:03,200 --> 01:24:07,280
Speaker 2: I get that Nathaniel Hackett did not do well in

1521
01:24:07,320 --> 01:24:11,120
Speaker 2: Denver last year and he's gone. But I'm only to

1522
01:24:11,160 --> 01:24:14,880
Speaker 2: bet a shekel or two that there were folks in

1523
01:24:14,920 --> 01:24:18,719
Speaker 2: that locker room who may have liked show Nathaniel Hackett.

1524
01:24:18,720 --> 01:24:21,360
Speaker 2: They might have had a good working relationship with him.

1525
01:24:21,360 --> 01:24:24,160
Speaker 2: They might have thought that was unfair. And we live

1526
01:24:24,160 --> 01:24:27,000
Speaker 2: in a small world, right, Someone that's not even in

1527
01:24:27,040 --> 01:24:31,479
Speaker 2: your organization might still come to his defense. Somebody in

1528
01:24:31,520 --> 01:24:34,320
Speaker 2: your organization might still come to his defense because they

1529
01:24:34,320 --> 01:24:39,679
Speaker 2: felt he was disrespected, all right, And that is actually

1530
01:24:39,760 --> 01:24:45,280
Speaker 2: what happened when Super Bowl MVP and a guy who

1531
01:24:45,320 --> 01:24:47,400
Speaker 2: probably will be in the Hall of Fame, Aaron Rodgers,

1532
01:24:47,439 --> 01:24:49,840
Speaker 2: who had been coached by Hackett during some of the

1533
01:24:49,880 --> 01:24:52,360
Speaker 2: great years in Green Bay. And oh, by the way,

1534
01:24:52,400 --> 01:24:56,080
Speaker 2: Hackett and Rogers and now reunited in New York. Well,

1535
01:24:56,200 --> 01:25:00,960
Speaker 2: guess what. Aaron Rodgers wasted no time and coming to

1536
01:25:02,080 --> 01:25:05,639
Speaker 2: Nathaniel Hackett's defense. He minced no words about his feelings

1537
01:25:05,680 --> 01:25:11,200
Speaker 2: towards Hackett, and he did not mince words with respect

1538
01:25:11,280 --> 01:25:16,559
Speaker 2: to Sean Payton and his public appraisal of Nathaniel Hackett.

1539
01:25:16,920 --> 01:25:20,320
Speaker 2: In fact, Rogers said, quote, my love for hack goes deep.

1540
01:25:20,640 --> 01:25:22,800
Speaker 2: You know, we had some great years together in Green Bay.

1541
01:25:23,160 --> 01:25:25,920
Speaker 2: We've kept in touch. I love him his family. On

1542
01:25:25,960 --> 01:25:28,200
Speaker 2: the field, He's arguably my favorite coach I've ever had

1543
01:25:28,200 --> 01:25:30,800
Speaker 2: in the NFL. Just his approach to it. He makes

1544
01:25:30,840 --> 01:25:34,320
Speaker 2: it fun, He cares about the guys, how he goes

1545
01:25:34,320 --> 01:25:37,560
Speaker 2: about his business with respect, with leadership, with honesty, integrity.

1546
01:25:38,520 --> 01:25:40,240
Speaker 2: I thought it was way in line. I thought it

1547
01:25:40,280 --> 01:25:43,200
Speaker 2: was inappropriate. I think Peyton needs to keep my coach's

1548
01:25:43,280 --> 01:25:46,960
Speaker 2: name out of his mouth. Yeah, come on, Aaron, really,

1549
01:25:47,000 --> 01:25:48,799
Speaker 2: you really got to go will Smith on him there.

1550
01:25:48,960 --> 01:25:52,599
Speaker 2: But I don't I don't disagree with Roger's sentiment with

1551
01:25:52,640 --> 01:25:55,760
Speaker 2: respect to the fact that you can hold two thoughts concurrently.

1552
01:25:56,640 --> 01:26:00,240
Speaker 2: By all accounts, Hackett appears to be an affable guy.

1553
01:26:01,400 --> 01:26:04,000
Speaker 2: And if Rogers said they had some great years together

1554
01:26:04,040 --> 01:26:06,559
Speaker 2: that they did, and if he treated people, if hack

1555
01:26:06,600 --> 01:26:10,360
Speaker 2: had treated people with respect and the working relationships with

1556
01:26:10,400 --> 01:26:12,920
Speaker 2: his players was good, those are good things. But you

1557
01:26:12,960 --> 01:26:14,880
Speaker 2: can hold two thoughts concurrently. I think he was over

1558
01:26:14,920 --> 01:26:18,200
Speaker 2: his head in Denver. Now. Peyton has tried to walk

1559
01:26:18,200 --> 01:26:20,559
Speaker 2: back his comments in a couple of various ways, including

1560
01:26:20,640 --> 01:26:25,479
Speaker 2: the classic non apology unapologetic apology quote, I said what

1561
01:26:25,520 --> 01:26:28,679
Speaker 2: I said, and obviously I need to show more restraint. Nah,

1562
01:26:28,720 --> 01:26:31,200
Speaker 2: you don't mean that. You just realize you can't put

1563
01:26:31,200 --> 01:26:32,960
Speaker 2: the toothpaste back in the tube now, and you got

1564
01:26:32,960 --> 01:26:35,040
Speaker 2: to try to put the lipstick on the pig. How's

1565
01:26:35,040 --> 01:26:38,639
Speaker 2: that for mixing metaphors. He also chastised himself for quote

1566
01:26:38,680 --> 01:26:40,800
Speaker 2: stepping in it when he should have known better. All

1567
01:26:40,840 --> 01:26:45,000
Speaker 2: this suggests he's sorry for being called out rather than

1568
01:26:45,040 --> 01:26:47,240
Speaker 2: being unprofessional, which is really the point. See, when you

1569
01:26:47,280 --> 01:26:50,920
Speaker 2: trash your predecessor, or for that matter, if you trash

1570
01:26:50,920 --> 01:26:54,800
Speaker 2: a competitor, what you're basically doing is inviting the people

1571
01:26:54,840 --> 01:26:57,840
Speaker 2: you're trying to impress to wonder what you'd be saying

1572
01:26:57,880 --> 01:27:01,080
Speaker 2: about them. If you were presented about the right opportunity

1573
01:27:02,439 --> 01:27:05,200
Speaker 2: memo to Sean Payton, it's too late now. You should

1574
01:27:05,240 --> 01:27:08,439
Speaker 2: have just picked up the phone and called Nathaniel Hackett.

1575
01:27:08,439 --> 01:27:11,840
Speaker 2: People do that. That happens. Robert Sala had a beef

1576
01:27:11,840 --> 01:27:13,200
Speaker 2: with someone last year. They picked up the phone and

1577
01:27:13,200 --> 01:27:17,160
Speaker 2: talked to each other. That would have been appropriate. It

1578
01:27:17,200 --> 01:27:19,360
Speaker 2: might have been considered more sincere. Like, you know, dude,

1579
01:27:19,400 --> 01:27:21,680
Speaker 2: I got caught in the moment. I apologize. I'm not

1580
01:27:21,680 --> 01:27:24,240
Speaker 2: saying he had a good year. But this is a

1581
01:27:24,360 --> 01:27:27,200
Speaker 2: tight knit profession. It's it's a it's a brotherhood, as

1582
01:27:27,200 --> 01:27:30,000
Speaker 2: it were. These guys are tight knit, and and to

1583
01:27:30,080 --> 01:27:33,479
Speaker 2: do that, to engage in that kind of backbiting, it

1584
01:27:33,600 --> 01:27:35,400
Speaker 2: just sucks the air out of the room. Man. It

1585
01:27:36,000 --> 01:27:41,960
Speaker 2: just there's really no place for it. Okay, remember I

1586
01:27:41,960 --> 01:27:44,600
Speaker 2: mean it wasn't there wasn't there a situation with the

1587
01:27:44,640 --> 01:27:49,040
Speaker 2: Dizney CEO recently who talked about his successor created a

1588
01:27:49,120 --> 01:27:52,840
Speaker 2: huge divide while he was at Disney. And so even

1589
01:27:53,000 --> 01:27:58,439
Speaker 2: if if you're at the highest pinnacle of sports management

1590
01:27:58,600 --> 01:28:04,160
Speaker 2: business in his in America, people are human. I get it.

1591
01:28:04,200 --> 01:28:08,960
Speaker 2: There's always the temptation for throwing shade. It's strong, but

1592
01:28:09,040 --> 01:28:10,720
Speaker 2: again it not only sucks the air out of the

1593
01:28:10,760 --> 01:28:12,840
Speaker 2: room if you scratch that itch. And I know that

1594
01:28:12,960 --> 01:28:16,920
Speaker 2: everybody has done this, including me. Okay, you make it,

1595
01:28:17,280 --> 01:28:20,599
Speaker 2: you talk about somebody and you then you scratch that itch.

1596
01:28:20,600 --> 01:28:23,160
Speaker 2: But there's a price to pay, even internally or if

1597
01:28:23,160 --> 01:28:27,280
Speaker 2: it gets back to that person, and the price always

1598
01:28:27,280 --> 01:28:30,880
Speaker 2: outweighs the benefit. And again you run the risk of

1599
01:28:30,920 --> 01:28:33,719
Speaker 2: creating a false impression with the people you're trying to impress.

1600
01:28:34,520 --> 01:28:37,799
Speaker 2: You want to improve the organization, you don't improve it.

1601
01:28:37,800 --> 01:28:39,880
Speaker 2: It doesn't make you look good by talking the way

1602
01:28:40,479 --> 01:28:43,639
Speaker 2: Sean Peyton looked. And look, I'm not trying to give

1603
01:28:43,680 --> 01:28:46,599
Speaker 2: a psychology one on one here. It's against a lot

1604
01:28:46,640 --> 01:28:50,920
Speaker 2: of practice psychology with a license. But look, everybody knows

1605
01:28:51,040 --> 01:28:53,080
Speaker 2: talk is cheap. Don't show me telling, don't tell me

1606
01:28:53,120 --> 01:28:55,240
Speaker 2: show me. The best course of action for anybody in

1607
01:28:55,320 --> 01:28:57,840
Speaker 2: any job, especially in sports, when you take over for

1608
01:28:57,880 --> 01:29:01,680
Speaker 2: somebody else's you let your actions do the talking. The

1609
01:29:01,760 --> 01:29:06,120
Speaker 2: only way that you're ever gonna truly impress people, get

1610
01:29:06,160 --> 01:29:09,760
Speaker 2: to people, affect people. The only thing that matters is

1611
01:29:10,280 --> 01:29:14,160
Speaker 2: the way you act and treat people by your actions

1612
01:29:14,280 --> 01:29:17,960
Speaker 2: and that's the example your values. You want your team

1613
01:29:18,000 --> 01:29:21,639
Speaker 2: to respect you. Listen. They don't need you to Kyle Tile,

1614
01:29:21,840 --> 01:29:24,880
Speaker 2: they don't need you to protect them. They do want

1615
01:29:24,880 --> 01:29:28,479
Speaker 2: you to inspire them. And a leadership is nothing more

1616
01:29:28,520 --> 01:29:32,840
Speaker 2: than influence. It's my definition, influence based on trust that

1617
01:29:32,880 --> 01:29:36,360
Speaker 2: you've earned. So how much trust do you really earn

1618
01:29:37,400 --> 01:29:40,559
Speaker 2: when you come out of the gate and you piss

1619
01:29:40,640 --> 01:29:42,680
Speaker 2: on the grave of the guy who's longer there anymore? Now,

1620
01:29:42,800 --> 01:29:47,160
Speaker 2: keep in mind there's a new sheriff in town and

1621
01:29:47,280 --> 01:29:48,800
Speaker 2: is Sean Pate, and I actually think he's going to

1622
01:29:48,880 --> 01:29:52,000
Speaker 2: improve Denver tremendously. I also think they're under a hell

1623
01:29:52,000 --> 01:29:55,760
Speaker 2: of a lot of pressure. Remember what Denver had to

1624
01:29:54,600 --> 01:29:58,840
Speaker 2: give up to get Sean Pate and Russell Wilson a

1625
01:29:58,960 --> 01:30:02,080
Speaker 2: total between the two with those guys seven draft picks,

1626
01:30:02,400 --> 01:30:05,719
Speaker 2: including three first rounders and three second rounders. They're paying

1627
01:30:05,720 --> 01:30:09,040
Speaker 2: one hundred and sixty one million guaranteed to Russell Wilson

1628
01:30:09,040 --> 01:30:13,920
Speaker 2: and most likely, it's my understanding, Peyton could reportedly make

1629
01:30:13,960 --> 01:30:16,960
Speaker 2: somewhere around twenty million a year with the Broncos. I

1630
01:30:16,960 --> 01:30:19,519
Speaker 2: don't know what the exact numbers are, but that's what

1631
01:30:19,600 --> 01:30:22,519
Speaker 2: he can make to be fair. Sean Payton is a

1632
01:30:22,600 --> 01:30:26,080
Speaker 2: proven winner. Okay, he's got a Super Bowl ring, and

1633
01:30:26,240 --> 01:30:28,479
Speaker 2: I think Drew Brees and his Hall of Fame career

1634
01:30:29,200 --> 01:30:34,000
Speaker 2: has to be part of Sean Payton's resume. So the

1635
01:30:34,040 --> 01:30:37,400
Speaker 2: Broncos paid a high price to get him. The expectations

1636
01:30:37,400 --> 01:30:39,880
Speaker 2: are going to be high. The expectations are going to

1637
01:30:39,920 --> 01:30:44,479
Speaker 2: be immediate. And before twenty twenty two, Russell Wilson was

1638
01:30:44,479 --> 01:30:47,599
Speaker 2: considered a very good quarterback, very good, you'll let Russ cook, right,

1639
01:30:47,920 --> 01:30:52,439
Speaker 2: but Russe flailed in twenty twenty two. Nothing worked forget

1640
01:30:52,439 --> 01:30:54,000
Speaker 2: cook and they couldn't even get to the stove to

1641
01:30:54,040 --> 01:30:57,880
Speaker 2: turn on. He looked lost completely. His new coach only

1642
01:30:57,960 --> 01:31:01,880
Speaker 2: lasted fifteen games. All of a sudden, you acquire two

1643
01:31:01,920 --> 01:31:04,559
Speaker 2: new cooks. Well, guess what the pressure cooker is on

1644
01:31:04,720 --> 01:31:07,840
Speaker 2: for Sean Payton. He's human, he'd be crazy not to

1645
01:31:07,880 --> 01:31:12,080
Speaker 2: feel it. I get that, But again, as I said,

1646
01:31:12,880 --> 01:31:15,920
Speaker 2: burning down your neighbor's house doesn't make you look any better.

1647
01:31:16,920 --> 01:31:22,160
Speaker 2: That's just my opinion. I cannot believe this story and

1648
01:31:22,280 --> 01:31:25,720
Speaker 2: those comments have had legs for literally a full week.

1649
01:31:26,479 --> 01:31:30,200
Speaker 2: I think you've heard literally everybody way in for Adams

1650
01:31:30,200 --> 01:31:34,920
Speaker 2: Sabbata Zanzibar, anybody who's everywhere. People have an opinion. So

1651
01:31:34,960 --> 01:31:36,320
Speaker 2: while we're on it, why not bring in the crew.

1652
01:31:36,360 --> 01:31:39,120
Speaker 2: We'll have a Shay and Kevin give their two cents

1653
01:31:39,520 --> 01:31:41,519
Speaker 2: on Sean Payton the way I did. But you know

1654
01:31:41,640 --> 01:31:46,040
Speaker 2: my thoughts. I think as a leader, you want respect.

1655
01:31:46,439 --> 01:31:48,400
Speaker 2: It's pretty tough to come out of the gate if

1656
01:31:48,400 --> 01:31:50,400
Speaker 2: you want to make those comments and keep him in house.

1657
01:31:50,760 --> 01:31:52,400
Speaker 2: I got a kick out of what Colin said, Hey,

1658
01:31:52,400 --> 01:31:55,559
Speaker 2: what's the big deal? Hackets stunk? You heard it, We

1659
01:31:55,640 --> 01:31:59,559
Speaker 2: saw it. Move on, grow up. He's not wrong. He's

1660
01:31:59,560 --> 01:32:01,960
Speaker 2: not wrong. But like I said, you scratch that itch,

1661
01:32:03,439 --> 01:32:06,080
Speaker 2: you're gonna pay for it. It's gonna come back and

1662
01:32:06,120 --> 01:32:08,960
Speaker 2: you're gonna pay a price for it. And clearly Sean

1663
01:32:09,000 --> 01:32:11,120
Speaker 2: Payton is we're bringing the crew. Talk about that as

1664
01:32:11,160 --> 01:32:14,040
Speaker 2: we continue. I'm Bernie Fraddle. We're coming to your life

1671
01:32:33,960 --> 01:32:37,559
Speaker 2: stuff to get to, all right, Sean Payton's criticism of

1672
01:32:37,680 --> 01:32:41,160
Speaker 2: Nathaniel Hackett. It's done a lot of things, including painting

1673
01:32:41,160 --> 01:32:44,800
Speaker 2: a target on the Denver Broncos. The Jets have said

1674
01:32:44,840 --> 01:32:49,000
Speaker 2: as much. Aaron Rodgers took major offense already looking forward

1675
01:32:49,040 --> 01:32:51,120
Speaker 2: to Week five when those two teams play each other.

1676
01:32:51,479 --> 01:32:53,919
Speaker 2: I know, by the way, is karma truly a biac?

1677
01:32:54,840 --> 01:32:58,040
Speaker 2: I gotta tell you this is weird because no sooner

1678
01:32:58,080 --> 01:33:01,559
Speaker 2: does Sean Payton make those comments. Their star wide receiver

1679
01:33:01,680 --> 01:33:04,760
Speaker 2: Tim Patrick, he has an achilles injury, will miss his

1680
01:33:04,840 --> 01:33:09,960
Speaker 2: second consecutive NFL season, and they're one of their starting linebackers,

1681
01:33:10,120 --> 01:33:14,120
Speaker 2: Jonas Griffith tears his aco during training camp. Oh boy,

1682
01:33:14,600 --> 01:33:18,280
Speaker 2: So Sean Payton's dealing with a lot, but apparently these

1683
01:33:18,320 --> 01:33:22,040
Speaker 2: remarks aren't done with him. Kevin, your thoughts when you

1684
01:33:22,120 --> 01:33:23,960
Speaker 2: heard that, there's a lot of ways to go with this.

1685
01:33:24,160 --> 01:33:27,080
Speaker 6: Yeah, well, it's unfortunate, number one. And for Sean Payton

1686
01:33:27,080 --> 01:33:29,040
Speaker 6: to say that I still had my analyst hat on.

1687
01:33:29,200 --> 01:33:31,479
Speaker 6: I highly doubt that he forgot he was the head

1688
01:33:31,520 --> 01:33:34,000
Speaker 6: coach of the Temver Broncos when he's doing an interview

1689
01:33:34,040 --> 01:33:36,280
Speaker 6: with USA today. So I don't know if he just,

1690
01:33:36,320 --> 01:33:38,040
Speaker 6: you know, felt in powered. I know he's one of

1691
01:33:38,040 --> 01:33:41,040
Speaker 6: the more sought after head coaches who are a free

1692
01:33:41,040 --> 01:33:43,439
Speaker 6: agent on the market, and so he feels maybe somewhat

1693
01:33:43,520 --> 01:33:46,400
Speaker 6: untouchable and I can say whatever I want, And maybe

1694
01:33:46,400 --> 01:33:48,479
Speaker 6: he didn't expect to get the backlash that he did

1695
01:33:48,560 --> 01:33:50,559
Speaker 6: and that's why he's sort of backtracked. But I mean,

1696
01:33:50,960 --> 01:33:54,879
Speaker 6: to your point, it's a fraternity, whether you know Nathaniel

1697
01:33:54,920 --> 01:33:57,120
Speaker 6: Hackett or not. You can't come out and publicly land

1698
01:33:57,200 --> 01:33:59,519
Speaker 6: base somebody like that in an interview.

1699
01:33:59,680 --> 01:34:01,439
Speaker 4: And I'm burnie to me what it does.

1700
01:34:01,920 --> 01:34:04,200
Speaker 6: It kind of places all the pressures squarely on the

1701
01:34:04,200 --> 01:34:06,559
Speaker 6: shoulders of Sean Payton for this season. If Denver does

1702
01:34:06,600 --> 01:34:10,200
Speaker 6: not turn this around for whatever reason, he basically has

1703
01:34:10,200 --> 01:34:12,360
Speaker 6: no one to blame but himself based on his comments,

1704
01:34:12,400 --> 01:34:14,840
Speaker 6: because based on what he said, all the talent is

1705
01:34:14,840 --> 01:34:16,360
Speaker 6: on the roster and in the room and it was

1706
01:34:16,400 --> 01:34:19,759
Speaker 6: purely a coaching issue and a management issue last season.

1707
01:34:20,120 --> 01:34:22,040
Speaker 6: So honestly, what he did and maybe he did this,

1708
01:34:22,120 --> 01:34:24,000
Speaker 6: maybe it is calculated on his part. I don't know,

1709
01:34:24,280 --> 01:34:26,240
Speaker 6: to take the pressure off of the players and off

1710
01:34:26,280 --> 01:34:29,120
Speaker 6: of Russell Wilson and place it squarely on his shoulders.

1711
01:34:29,400 --> 01:34:31,160
Speaker 6: I don't know if that was his intent or not,

1712
01:34:31,520 --> 01:34:34,000
Speaker 6: but that's certainly my takeaway from it. If Denver does

1713
01:34:34,000 --> 01:34:36,720
Speaker 6: not turn things around and become a playoff team or

1714
01:34:36,760 --> 01:34:39,040
Speaker 6: at least compete for a playoff spot towards the end

1715
01:34:39,080 --> 01:34:41,599
Speaker 6: of the season, really all of the heat should fall

1716
01:34:41,640 --> 01:34:42,840
Speaker 6: on the shoulders of Sean Payton.

1717
01:34:43,040 --> 01:34:44,840
Speaker 4: Based on what he told the USA today.

1718
01:34:45,920 --> 01:34:47,840
Speaker 2: You bring up a lot of really good points here.

1719
01:34:48,040 --> 01:34:52,000
Speaker 2: This is going to follow him all season, and if

1720
01:34:52,040 --> 01:34:55,960
Speaker 2: Denver does not meet your expectations, it's gonna be thrown

1721
01:34:56,000 --> 01:34:59,679
Speaker 2: in his face. Number one. Second good point you made

1722
01:34:59,840 --> 01:35:03,479
Speaker 2: was by his own admission, the talents in the room,

1723
01:35:03,560 --> 01:35:05,920
Speaker 2: they were just coached poorly last year. But I like

1724
01:35:05,960 --> 01:35:10,240
Speaker 2: the first point you made, that BS statement about well,

1725
01:35:10,280 --> 01:35:14,720
Speaker 2: I forgot I had my analyst hat on instead of

1726
01:35:14,720 --> 01:35:17,240
Speaker 2: my coach's hat. And first of all, let me just

1727
01:35:18,479 --> 01:35:21,200
Speaker 2: touch on that for the peeps. When you are an

1728
01:35:21,240 --> 01:35:23,160
Speaker 2: analyst like we are, we work for Fox, were paid

1729
01:35:23,200 --> 01:35:27,519
Speaker 2: to have opinions. We represent Fox Sports Radio, and we're

1730
01:35:27,520 --> 01:35:34,000
Speaker 2: supposed to be objective, and it's our goal is to

1731
01:35:34,040 --> 01:35:37,360
Speaker 2: provide content, be keen observers fair enough, right, so we're

1732
01:35:37,400 --> 01:35:41,519
Speaker 2: not don't take a rooting interest. There are objective truths,

1733
01:35:41,600 --> 01:35:44,040
Speaker 2: there are personal feelings. What you want to do is

1734
01:35:44,680 --> 01:35:49,559
Speaker 2: provide content that people find informative and entertaining. That's what

1735
01:35:49,600 --> 01:35:54,559
Speaker 2: you do as an analyst. As a coach, you represent

1736
01:35:54,600 --> 01:35:58,479
Speaker 2: the Denver Broncos. Talking about another team doesn't help you

1737
01:35:58,520 --> 01:36:03,080
Speaker 2: win games. Here's the irony, Kevin. I watched Sean Payton

1738
01:36:03,160 --> 01:36:05,040
Speaker 2: as an analyst a lot. He was on this network

1739
01:36:05,040 --> 01:36:07,639
Speaker 2: as a guest a lot. YEP. I don't ever recall

1740
01:36:07,720 --> 01:36:10,599
Speaker 2: him talking trash like that as an analyst, do you never?

1741
01:36:10,880 --> 01:36:13,519
Speaker 6: No, he was one of the most conservative, never really

1742
01:36:13,520 --> 01:36:17,640
Speaker 6: said anything really inflammatory and usually, and people in his

1743
01:36:17,760 --> 01:36:19,880
Speaker 6: role who have an eye of getting back into the

1744
01:36:19,920 --> 01:36:23,360
Speaker 6: coaching world for that reason, don't go off on guys

1745
01:36:23,360 --> 01:36:24,040
Speaker 6: while they're analyst.

1746
01:36:24,120 --> 01:36:25,120
Speaker 4: John Gruden didn't do.

1747
01:36:25,080 --> 01:36:26,880
Speaker 6: It for the longest time when he was on Monday

1748
01:36:26,960 --> 01:36:29,320
Speaker 6: Night Football for that same reason. So it's odd that

1749
01:36:29,320 --> 01:36:31,200
Speaker 6: he would wait until he became a head coach again

1750
01:36:31,240 --> 01:36:33,599
Speaker 6: to attack somebody in the fraternity and not do it

1751
01:36:33,600 --> 01:36:35,080
Speaker 6: when he actually was an analyst.

1752
01:36:36,200 --> 01:36:38,519
Speaker 2: That's the ultimate irony. I'm glad you brought that up,

1753
01:36:38,560 --> 01:36:42,880
Speaker 2: because I don't recall him being that caustic when he

1754
01:36:42,880 --> 01:36:45,880
Speaker 2: actually was an analyst. He was a way above average,

1755
01:36:45,920 --> 01:36:51,000
Speaker 2: superb Access and O's guys very much had a real

1756
01:36:51,040 --> 01:36:54,040
Speaker 2: proclivity to not take access and O's, but to take

1757
01:36:54,280 --> 01:36:56,080
Speaker 2: the exs and O's aspect of the NFL and put

1758
01:36:56,080 --> 01:36:58,920
Speaker 2: it in bite sized pieces so people could understand good analogies,

1759
01:36:59,280 --> 01:37:02,920
Speaker 2: good insight always had you know, was very good at

1760
01:37:02,960 --> 01:37:06,559
Speaker 2: answering questions. So look to your point, I think we

1761
01:37:06,640 --> 01:37:09,559
Speaker 2: both sort of said this. He did have an ulterior

1762
01:37:09,600 --> 01:37:12,320
Speaker 2: motive here, and he's trying to curry favor with his team.

1763
01:37:12,640 --> 01:37:15,519
Speaker 2: It's not your fault good will hunting, Sean McGuire. Will

1764
01:37:15,600 --> 01:37:17,559
Speaker 2: hunting not your fault. So not your fault. The other

1765
01:37:17,600 --> 01:37:21,040
Speaker 2: guy screwed it up, and to air that dirty laundry

1766
01:37:21,120 --> 01:37:23,120
Speaker 2: for in front of God and everybody in the whole world.

1767
01:37:24,560 --> 01:37:26,720
Speaker 2: Maybe the biggest takeaway Kevin from what you said is

1768
01:37:26,760 --> 01:37:30,760
Speaker 2: this is going to trail him all year. Okay to

1769
01:37:30,760 --> 01:37:34,800
Speaker 2: this day. What do they remember about Lebron Not one,

1770
01:37:34,960 --> 01:37:38,519
Speaker 2: not two, not three. That was thirteen years ago. So boy,

1771
01:37:38,560 --> 01:37:41,880
Speaker 2: I'll tell you, all right, good good stuff, Kevin. All Right, Shane,

1772
01:37:41,880 --> 01:37:43,639
Speaker 2: what do you got for us on this subject?

1773
01:37:44,040 --> 01:37:46,240
Speaker 7: Yeah, I just wanted to hop back onto the analyst

1774
01:37:46,920 --> 01:37:50,759
Speaker 7: topic real quick. Yeah, I truly believe that Sean Payton

1775
01:37:50,920 --> 01:37:53,640
Speaker 7: definitely knew he wasn't being an analyst that situation. He

1776
01:37:53,680 --> 01:37:55,439
Speaker 7: knew what he was doing. I mean, you said it yourself,

1777
01:37:55,439 --> 01:37:58,600
Speaker 7: there's a new sheriff in town. And with that situation,

1778
01:37:58,800 --> 01:38:00,400
Speaker 7: I think he was just saying, Hey, it's my way

1779
01:38:00,479 --> 01:38:02,519
Speaker 7: or the highway. This is what we're doing, and he

1780
01:38:02,640 --> 01:38:04,599
Speaker 7: just wanted to kind of let it set in stone

1781
01:38:04,800 --> 01:38:07,639
Speaker 7: really early in the season, this is what's going to happen.

1782
01:38:07,720 --> 01:38:10,200
Speaker 7: And then another thing with I'm sure he wasn't expecting

1783
01:38:10,280 --> 01:38:12,840
Speaker 7: it kind of just ended up helping both teams out.

1784
01:38:13,240 --> 01:38:16,639
Speaker 7: The Jets obviously just are going to surround their offensive

1785
01:38:16,680 --> 01:38:19,400
Speaker 7: coordinator and be behind them no matter what, and so

1786
01:38:19,520 --> 01:38:21,960
Speaker 7: early in the season, just something like this happening, it's

1787
01:38:22,040 --> 01:38:25,680
Speaker 7: just going to help them get behind their offensive coordinator.

1788
01:38:25,760 --> 01:38:28,400
Speaker 7: So yeah, I think it just ended up helping both

1789
01:38:28,400 --> 01:38:33,200
Speaker 7: of the teams. Obviously, Sean Payton's professionalism is going to

1790
01:38:33,240 --> 01:38:36,280
Speaker 7: be in question, but just looking back on that, I

1791
01:38:36,280 --> 01:38:38,080
Speaker 7: think he knew what he was doing and he definitely

1792
01:38:38,120 --> 01:38:39,799
Speaker 7: wasn't coming from a point as an analyst.

1793
01:38:40,280 --> 01:38:45,080
Speaker 2: Fair enough, I agree with you, good stuff, And so

1794
01:38:45,160 --> 01:38:47,639
Speaker 2: where are we? Where are we with this? Here's where

1795
01:38:47,680 --> 01:38:52,400
Speaker 2: we're at. I strongly feel that Sean Payton and his

1796
01:38:52,479 --> 01:38:57,360
Speaker 2: criticism of a fellow coach in this fraternity, which is

1797
01:38:57,400 --> 01:39:01,439
Speaker 2: a very small men's club you can't buy your way in,

1798
01:39:02,479 --> 01:39:04,760
Speaker 2: he's painted a target on the Denver Broncos that didn't

1799
01:39:04,800 --> 01:39:07,519
Speaker 2: need to be there. Peyton has gotten a lot of

1800
01:39:07,680 --> 01:39:12,280
Speaker 2: criticism for the derogatory comments he made. And I'm not

1801
01:39:12,320 --> 01:39:15,679
Speaker 2: trying to give one of these, you know, politically correct, measured,

1802
01:39:16,120 --> 01:39:18,719
Speaker 2: pre programmed speeches. If you've listened to me, I don't

1803
01:39:18,760 --> 01:39:21,600
Speaker 2: do that. I really don't pull any punches. But I

1804
01:39:21,640 --> 01:39:24,040
Speaker 2: am trying to just talk in a holistic general sense

1805
01:39:24,680 --> 01:39:28,439
Speaker 2: that what was the real benefit for Sean Payton to

1806
01:39:28,520 --> 01:39:31,760
Speaker 2: do this, other than perhaps the belief that he could

1807
01:39:31,760 --> 01:39:34,639
Speaker 2: curry favor with his new team. So when Rogers takes

1808
01:39:34,640 --> 01:39:37,800
Speaker 2: offense to Peyton's remarks saying keep your coach's name out

1809
01:39:37,840 --> 01:39:39,960
Speaker 2: of my mouth, the saga gets a little bit more

1810
01:39:39,960 --> 01:39:42,680
Speaker 2: interesting because, wouldn't you know it, the Jets take on

1811
01:39:42,760 --> 01:39:45,320
Speaker 2: the Broncos in Week five, and if you don't think

1812
01:39:45,439 --> 01:39:47,800
Speaker 2: Rogers and the Jets come out with extra motivation that

1813
01:39:47,880 --> 01:39:50,200
Speaker 2: day in order to make Peyton pay for his words

1814
01:39:50,200 --> 01:39:55,240
Speaker 2: and eat his words against Nathaniel Hackett. Well, then you're

1815
01:39:55,280 --> 01:39:57,200
Speaker 2: living in a different universe than most of the rest

1816
01:39:57,240 --> 01:39:59,599
Speaker 2: of us are, because this is a heated affair. People

1817
01:39:59,640 --> 01:40:02,599
Speaker 2: have a long memories in sports. These are highly charged

1818
01:40:02,600 --> 01:40:05,679
Speaker 2: the world class athletes who are pissed off and fired

1819
01:40:05,760 --> 01:40:07,160
Speaker 2: up most of the time. And you don't really need

1820
01:40:07,200 --> 01:40:10,639
Speaker 2: to give him any extra motivation. Now, Sean Payton wins,

1821
01:40:11,600 --> 01:40:14,599
Speaker 2: guess what, he'll end up being a genius. But if

1822
01:40:14,600 --> 01:40:16,759
Speaker 2: they don't, he might be a village idiot. And that's

1823
01:40:17,120 --> 01:40:19,160
Speaker 2: something that I never thought I'd put the same sentence

1824
01:40:19,760 --> 01:40:22,760
Speaker 2: with Sean Payton. Our good job, guys, coming up Chris

1840
01:41:03,800 --> 01:41:06,280

1841
01:41:06,280 --> 01:41:08,960
Speaker 6: in the ninth inning with two man on. The Twins

1842
01:41:08,960 --> 01:41:11,200

1843
01:41:11,240 --> 01:41:13,880

Speaker 4: They beat the Marlins at six to two.

1850
01:41:28,479 --> 01:41:30,720
Speaker 6: In the NFL, the Bengals signed linebacker Logan Wilson to

1851
01:41:30,800 --> 01:41:34,160
Speaker 6: a four year contract extension. Cowboys reached an extension with

1852
01:41:34,280 --> 01:41:37,400

Speaker 6: six million dollars max contract extension back to Bernie Fredom.

1856
01:41:46,760 --> 01:41:50,760
Speaker 2: All Right, thanks, Kevin, Well, we are in the thick

1857
01:41:50,760 --> 01:41:53,960
Speaker 2: of it Women's World Cup. We're in the knockoff stage

1858
01:41:54,040 --> 01:41:56,719
Speaker 2: and we've been doing this feature for eighteen months now

1859
01:41:56,760 --> 01:42:00,200
Speaker 2: and now more important than ever you pay attention is

1860
01:42:00,200 --> 01:42:01,599
Speaker 2: profets world of soccer.

1861
01:42:03,200 --> 01:42:17,799
Speaker 9: The greatest goals, the thrilling finishes, the international drama.

1862
01:42:19,080 --> 01:42:22,519
Speaker 1: It's all here in this report from the World of Soccer.

1863
01:42:23,200 --> 01:42:25,320
Speaker 2: All right, Chris, for twenty four and a half hours

1864
01:42:25,320 --> 01:42:28,200
Speaker 2: away from the knockout stage game versus Sweden. Based on

1865
01:42:28,200 --> 01:42:32,880
Speaker 2: the performance against Portugal, I am not optimistic your thoughts.

1866
01:42:33,360 --> 01:42:36,880
Speaker 5: I don't think anyone is. I've I was, We've I

1867
01:42:36,960 --> 01:42:38,000
Speaker 5: did not have a.

1868
01:42:37,920 --> 01:42:40,760
Speaker 8: Nil nil draw in the cards to the United States,

1869
01:42:40,800 --> 01:42:44,480
Speaker 8: their second draw of the World Cup in their group stage.

1870
01:42:44,840 --> 01:42:47,280
Speaker 8: They move forward, and I guess that's enough for them

1871
01:42:47,320 --> 01:42:50,240
Speaker 8: to celebrate. And although I'm more of the side with

1872
01:42:50,320 --> 01:42:53,520
Speaker 8: Carly Lloyd that I just believe that why are they celebrating,

1873
01:42:53,960 --> 01:42:57,000
Speaker 8: But here we are. It's it's a team that has

1874
01:42:57,000 --> 01:43:00,400
Speaker 8: looked utterly dysfunctional right now, and I have to get

1875
01:43:00,400 --> 01:43:02,760
Speaker 8: into that dysfunction. But they get to move forward and

1876
01:43:03,040 --> 01:43:03,799
Speaker 8: play Sweden.

1877
01:43:03,880 --> 01:43:05,040
Speaker 4: But I don't know.

1878
01:43:05,080 --> 01:43:06,760
Speaker 8: I haven't seen the odds with this game, but I

1879
01:43:07,200 --> 01:43:09,800
Speaker 8: can't believe anything else other than Sweden should be the

1880
01:43:09,840 --> 01:43:10,479
Speaker 8: favorite here.

1881
01:43:11,760 --> 01:43:13,519
Speaker 2: I got to ask you a question. This has not

1882
01:43:13,600 --> 01:43:17,600
Speaker 2: been talked about, Chris. Clearly, Alex Morgan has lost a

1883
01:43:17,680 --> 01:43:22,680
Speaker 2: yard off for fastball. Her performance is completely muted. Your

1884
01:43:22,680 --> 01:43:26,519
Speaker 2: thoughts heading into Sweden pertaining to Alex Morgan.

1885
01:43:27,760 --> 01:43:29,519
Speaker 8: Yeah, Look, this is always going to be a World

1886
01:43:29,560 --> 01:43:32,160
Speaker 8: Cup where the young the young guns were supposed to

1887
01:43:32,200 --> 01:43:34,439
Speaker 8: be the ones to step up Alex and Morgan was

1888
01:43:34,439 --> 01:43:36,760
Speaker 8: always going to be showing her age. World Cups are

1889
01:43:36,760 --> 01:43:40,040
Speaker 8: four younger players people like Alex Morgan. They're just not

1890
01:43:40,160 --> 01:43:41,880
Speaker 8: going to be able to play a full game and

1891
01:43:42,040 --> 01:43:44,080
Speaker 8: they're going to keep losing a step in step. There

1892
01:43:44,120 --> 01:43:46,519
Speaker 8: is always going to be Alex Morgan's going out on

1893
01:43:46,560 --> 01:43:49,639
Speaker 8: her shield campaign and it hasn't been great for her,

1894
01:43:49,960 --> 01:43:51,920
Speaker 8: But I mean, more to the point, it has been

1895
01:43:51,920 --> 01:43:53,680
Speaker 8: great for any of the strikers. And that just put

1896
01:43:53,720 --> 01:43:56,360
Speaker 8: to Alex Morgan back the limelight. Morgan wasn't supposed to

1897
01:43:56,360 --> 01:43:59,240
Speaker 8: carry let's bload herself now that she's in her thirties.

1898
01:43:59,280 --> 01:44:01,280
Speaker 8: It was supposed to be so Viaz Smith, who the

1899
01:44:01,280 --> 01:44:04,679
Speaker 8: only Sophia Smith Smith actually we've seen was against Vietnam,

1900
01:44:04,720 --> 01:44:05,479
Speaker 8: who is awful.

1901
01:44:05,760 --> 01:44:06,280
Speaker 5: As you know.

1902
01:44:06,400 --> 01:44:11,000
Speaker 8: Trinity Rodman has been absolutely a ghost in this and

1903
01:44:11,040 --> 01:44:13,680
Speaker 8: now one of their best defenders in Rose Level, is

1904
01:44:13,760 --> 01:44:17,040
Speaker 8: suspended for this game because the second yellow card, like,

1905
01:44:17,040 --> 01:44:20,680
Speaker 8: there's no I think it's it's a mistake to put

1906
01:44:20,760 --> 01:44:23,679
Speaker 8: on Alex Morgan, because it shouldn't be on Alex Morgan.

1907
01:44:23,680 --> 01:44:24,160
Speaker 8: It should be the.

1908
01:44:24,200 --> 01:44:24,920
Speaker 2: Rest of this team.

1909
01:44:24,920 --> 01:44:27,600
Speaker 8: It should be the entire lineup. Yes, she is the

1910
01:44:27,680 --> 01:44:30,840
Speaker 8: faith of US women's soccer. Yes she gets to be

1911
01:44:30,960 --> 01:44:34,120
Speaker 8: the statue of liberty or whatever they dressed her up

1912
01:44:34,120 --> 01:44:38,559
Speaker 8: as for the for the broadcast. But the whole team

1913
01:44:38,960 --> 01:44:43,400
Speaker 8: is just right now, very very listless. So I put

1914
01:44:43,400 --> 01:44:45,760
Speaker 8: some blame on Alex Morgan, but I really can't lay

1915
01:44:45,800 --> 01:44:48,519
Speaker 8: all of this at her feet, because the young women

1916
01:44:48,560 --> 01:44:50,919
Speaker 8: who were supposed to be this next generations to absolutely

1917
01:44:50,920 --> 01:44:51,920
Speaker 8: have not stepped up.

1918
01:44:52,680 --> 01:44:56,160
Speaker 2: So Rose Level gets back to back yellow cards she'll

1919
01:44:56,200 --> 01:45:00,320
Speaker 2: sit tomorrow night. That's a huge loss. They go back

1920
01:45:00,320 --> 01:45:03,800
Speaker 2: to Savannah Deamelo, they have to.

1921
01:45:03,960 --> 01:45:06,120
Speaker 8: I'm just more worried about Crystal Dunn at this point,

1922
01:45:06,200 --> 01:45:09,040
Speaker 8: who's just looked very locked out there. Damello, I thought,

1923
01:45:09,040 --> 01:45:11,639
Speaker 8: has played fine, but they need more than just her

1924
01:45:11,720 --> 01:45:15,559
Speaker 8: out on the field, especially against Sweden, who likes to attack,

1925
01:45:15,760 --> 01:45:18,160
Speaker 8: likes to press, and I just I don't know if

1926
01:45:18,320 --> 01:45:21,439
Speaker 8: Savannah Damello is ready for a full ninety minutes of

1927
01:45:21,479 --> 01:45:25,040
Speaker 8: hell against the Sweden team who has just been I believe,

1928
01:45:25,040 --> 01:45:27,439
Speaker 8: if I am not mistaken, through the group stage, they

1929
01:45:27,479 --> 01:45:29,519
Speaker 8: have what they've goor.

1930
01:45:29,800 --> 01:45:32,360
Speaker 2: They beat Italy five to nothing, beat somebody two to nothing,

1931
01:45:32,400 --> 01:45:32,800
Speaker 2: they end that.

1932
01:45:32,840 --> 01:45:34,519
Speaker 5: Yeah, they beat it that over. I have nothing.

1933
01:45:34,800 --> 01:45:38,840
Speaker 8: Two goals against Argentina, two goals against South Africa, who

1934
01:45:38,880 --> 01:45:42,280
Speaker 8: actually stunned Italy and knocked them out of the World Cup. Here,

1935
01:45:42,360 --> 01:45:45,800
Speaker 8: so nine goals. That's that's Sweden's tally so far. It's

1936
01:45:45,800 --> 01:45:47,040
Speaker 8: gonna be a busy night out date.

1937
01:45:47,360 --> 01:45:49,599
Speaker 2: And the winner the golden goal against well, it wasn't

1938
01:45:49,600 --> 01:45:53,120
Speaker 2: a golden goal, wasn't overtime. But the bottom line is

1939
01:45:53,640 --> 01:45:56,320
Speaker 2: that to beat South Africa in that first game, I

1940
01:45:56,360 --> 01:45:58,760
Speaker 2: think it was in the ninety second minute or something

1941
01:45:58,760 --> 01:46:01,960
Speaker 2: along those lines, so we can play, you know, the

1942
01:46:03,160 --> 01:46:05,320
Speaker 2: tight game as well. They know what that pressure feels like.

1943
01:46:05,320 --> 01:46:08,200
Speaker 2: And by the way, they fared very well against the

1944
01:46:08,320 --> 01:46:11,599
Speaker 2: US and you know previous World Cups and certainly in

1945
01:46:11,640 --> 01:46:14,360
Speaker 2: the Olympics in twenty nineteen. Do you want to make

1946
01:46:14,360 --> 01:46:15,880
Speaker 2: a prediction, you want to wait till tomorrow night.

1947
01:46:16,439 --> 01:46:18,519
Speaker 8: I you know what I'm going to call back in

1948
01:46:18,640 --> 01:46:20,559
Speaker 8: tomorrow night. I think we'll do our World of Soccer

1949
01:46:20,720 --> 01:46:23,160
Speaker 8: live tomorrow well, since we'll be in the middle of it.

1950
01:46:23,240 --> 01:46:26,519
Speaker 8: But right now I feel like the US, like it's

1951
01:46:26,600 --> 01:46:28,720
Speaker 8: nice if they've advanced, but I don't really give them

1952
01:46:28,760 --> 01:46:31,200
Speaker 8: much of a shot against Sweden. In fact, looking at

1953
01:46:31,200 --> 01:46:33,519
Speaker 8: this knockout round right now, I don't even think they're

1954
01:46:33,600 --> 01:46:36,080
Speaker 8: like one of the best teams remaining here. I think

1955
01:46:36,080 --> 01:46:38,080
Speaker 8: that's probably I'd like to say it's Japan right now,

1956
01:46:38,080 --> 01:46:41,360
Speaker 8: but they're right now draw draw it even with Norway,

1957
01:46:41,479 --> 01:46:45,519
Speaker 8: but right behind them is Sweden and Spain, so we'll see.

1958
01:46:45,560 --> 01:46:48,519
Speaker 8: I'm not confident in the US's prospects right now.

1959
01:46:48,800 --> 01:46:51,320
Speaker 2: Well, in the Olympics, not that long ago, this same

1960
01:46:51,360 --> 01:46:55,760
Speaker 2: squad essentially lost to the same Sweden squad three to NOO,

1961
01:46:55,960 --> 01:46:59,960
Speaker 2: So tough duty, all right. The reason I believe soccer

1962
01:47:00,080 --> 01:47:01,800
Speaker 2: is going to catch on this time is because you

1963
01:47:01,840 --> 01:47:04,200
Speaker 2: are recognizing the names, not the least of which is

1964
01:47:04,479 --> 01:47:06,679
Speaker 2: Tom Brady, who says, hey, I want part of this too.

1965
01:47:08,160 --> 01:47:10,599
Speaker 8: Well it's a yeah, so the story is out. I've

1966
01:47:10,600 --> 01:47:13,160
Speaker 8: seen some people kind of like pop because whatever Tom

1967
01:47:13,200 --> 01:47:16,639
Speaker 8: Brady does, it's automatically news in our sports world. Tom

1968
01:47:16,680 --> 01:47:21,320
Speaker 8: Brady has been named a minority owner in Birmingham City.

1969
01:47:21,360 --> 01:47:24,120
Speaker 8: Now Birmingham City has played the elapsed i believe twelve

1970
01:47:24,240 --> 01:47:28,040
Speaker 8: years in the Europe in the English Football League Championship,

1971
01:47:28,080 --> 01:47:30,519
Speaker 8: which is the second tier right below the Premier League.

1972
01:47:31,200 --> 01:47:33,479
Speaker 8: They have not really gone up. They've been around since

1973
01:47:33,520 --> 01:47:36,400
Speaker 8: like eighteen seventy five. It's an old club, but it's

1974
01:47:36,400 --> 01:47:38,439
Speaker 8: not a club that has ever had any kind of

1975
01:47:39,640 --> 01:47:43,280
Speaker 8: success to it. This isn't like Blackburn Rovers, who you know,

1976
01:47:43,360 --> 01:47:46,640
Speaker 8: had success in the nineties and hasn't banished the wilderness

1977
01:47:46,640 --> 01:47:48,599
Speaker 8: for a while, or even Nottingham City. This is kind

1978
01:47:48,600 --> 01:47:51,559
Speaker 8: of a club that, in spite of being in England's

1979
01:47:51,600 --> 01:47:54,920
Speaker 8: second most populated city, just really hasn't had much. And

1980
01:47:55,000 --> 01:47:59,200
Speaker 8: Tom Brady gets the pub but it's really he's a

1981
01:47:59,640 --> 01:48:03,160
Speaker 8: he's kind kind of the forward face of the new

1982
01:48:03,160 --> 01:48:06,599
Speaker 8: ownership out there. Man by the name of Tom Wagner,

1983
01:48:06,600 --> 01:48:10,560
Speaker 8: who's coach, he's executive Shelby Companies. Now Shelby Companies is

1984
01:48:10,600 --> 01:48:13,160
Speaker 8: a bit of private equity, is what they as I

1985
01:48:13,240 --> 01:48:16,160
Speaker 8: believe what they do, which in the world of English soccer,

1986
01:48:16,320 --> 01:48:22,080
Speaker 8: they are not exactly seen as protagonists among many supporter

1987
01:48:22,120 --> 01:48:23,839
Speaker 8: groups out there who still have a lot of display,

1988
01:48:23,920 --> 01:48:27,080
Speaker 8: especially in smaller clubs like Birmingham City. So I believe

1989
01:48:27,080 --> 01:48:29,479
Speaker 8: Tom Brady's kind of been brought in not only to

1990
01:48:29,520 --> 01:48:31,920
Speaker 8: be a nice public face to this, but also too.

1991
01:48:32,320 --> 01:48:34,280
Speaker 8: I know they've said that he's not just going to

1992
01:48:34,280 --> 01:48:37,200
Speaker 8: be here for promotional purposes, that he's going to take

1993
01:48:38,520 --> 01:48:41,160
Speaker 8: a more active role. I do have questions about how

1994
01:48:41,240 --> 01:48:44,040
Speaker 8: active he will be over there, considering his background really

1995
01:48:44,080 --> 01:48:47,120
Speaker 8: isn't in soccer management. But I think it's a nice

1996
01:48:47,160 --> 01:48:49,559
Speaker 8: face to put on there because Birmingham City right now

1997
01:48:49,920 --> 01:48:51,800
Speaker 8: is one of those distress clubs in England that has

1998
01:48:51,800 --> 01:48:55,799
Speaker 8: a lot of financial troubles and there's some hard, very hard,

1999
01:48:55,920 --> 01:48:58,440
Speaker 8: difficult choices to be made here in the coming years.

2000
01:48:58,960 --> 01:49:02,080
Speaker 2: I just think it's great that so many luminaries are

2001
01:49:02,200 --> 01:49:04,680
Speaker 2: investing in this sport. And when you look at what

2002
01:49:04,840 --> 01:49:09,080
Speaker 2: Messi is doing stateside now and how people are understanding

2003
01:49:09,160 --> 01:49:14,200
Speaker 2: the names, learning the names, and they're able to identify

2004
01:49:14,840 --> 01:49:18,280
Speaker 2: with the soccer clubs and the international soccer teams.

2005
01:49:18,760 --> 01:49:22,320
Speaker 8: Well, definitely definitely the Wrecksham effect, right, Like I think

2006
01:49:22,320 --> 01:49:24,960
Speaker 8: what Tom Brady, JJ Watt and Lebron James is they've

2007
01:49:24,960 --> 01:49:26,960
Speaker 8: all kind of watched Wreckham. They see what's happened with

2008
01:49:27,040 --> 01:49:29,519
Speaker 8: Ryan Reynolds, and they kind of want a little bit

2009
01:49:29,560 --> 01:49:32,000
Speaker 8: that for themselves. They understand buying Inso this culture is

2010
01:49:32,080 --> 01:49:32,840
Speaker 8: very fun.

2011
01:49:33,600 --> 01:49:36,080
Speaker 2: And look look what a splash Messi has made. Finally,

2012
01:49:36,640 --> 01:49:41,280
Speaker 2: someone who's noteworthy retired recently in the world of soccer,

2013
01:49:41,479 --> 01:49:45,679
Speaker 2: and I think it's it's an individual who had enough

2014
01:49:45,680 --> 01:49:49,200
Speaker 2: of a noteworthy career that they deserve their day in

2015
01:49:49,280 --> 01:49:49,639
Speaker 2: the sun.

2016
01:49:50,240 --> 01:49:51,640
Speaker 5: Yes, I want to.

2017
01:49:51,640 --> 01:49:53,400
Speaker 8: I'm glad you gave me some time on this, Bernie.

2018
01:49:53,400 --> 01:49:54,800
Speaker 8: This is a man who's near and dear to my

2019
01:49:54,880 --> 01:49:58,840
Speaker 8: heart because he won a World Cup for my Italian side.

2020
01:49:58,840 --> 01:50:02,759
Speaker 8: That's John Luigi Before better known as Gigi Buffon, who

2021
01:50:03,000 --> 01:50:06,000
Speaker 8: is a who retires at the right young age of

2022
01:50:06,240 --> 01:50:11,080
Speaker 8: forty five. He has been playing professional soccer since nineteen

2023
01:50:11,320 --> 01:50:15,080
Speaker 8: ninety five, when he debuted for Parma, spent seventeen years

2024
01:50:15,080 --> 01:50:18,240
Speaker 8: the Italian club Juventus, played a little bit with Paris

2025
01:50:18,240 --> 01:50:21,519
Speaker 8: Saint Germain near the end here and retires now back

2026
01:50:21,560 --> 01:50:25,000
Speaker 8: with his old fluck Parma. As I just said, forty

2027
01:50:25,000 --> 01:50:27,200
Speaker 8: five years. He's been at this for a long time,

2028
01:50:27,400 --> 01:50:30,559
Speaker 8: and I think everyone knew just how special he was

2029
01:50:30,600 --> 01:50:33,080
Speaker 8: in the first ten years of his career. Just asked Pele,

2030
01:50:33,760 --> 01:50:37,400
Speaker 8: the legendary, the legendary man himself, Pele who put him

2031
01:50:37,400 --> 01:50:39,719
Speaker 8: on his fifat one hundred list back in two thousand

2032
01:50:39,760 --> 01:50:42,560
Speaker 8: and four as the world as one of the world's

2033
01:50:42,600 --> 01:50:46,000
Speaker 8: one hundred and twenty five greatest living players. This is

2034
01:50:46,040 --> 01:50:49,680
Speaker 8: a man who who pioneered the entire style that we

2035
01:50:49,760 --> 01:50:53,000
Speaker 8: have now of modern goalkeepers of diving for the ball,

2036
01:50:53,360 --> 01:50:56,080
Speaker 8: the so called superman. And yes, he has torn off

2037
01:50:56,080 --> 01:50:58,040
Speaker 8: his shirt and revealed that he has a superman shirt

2038
01:50:58,360 --> 01:51:00,000
Speaker 8: at times. This is a man who went up.

2039
01:51:00,000 --> 01:51:02,920
Speaker 2: He's big. It's like six foot five, wasn't he And

2040
01:51:03,840 --> 01:51:06,920
Speaker 2: he's absolutely huge. Yeah. Here here's the thing. Why I

2041
01:51:07,040 --> 01:51:08,720
Speaker 2: chip my cap to this guy and why we do

2042
01:51:08,760 --> 01:51:13,000
Speaker 2: this segment. I believe he played. Frank's Ninter said at best,

2043
01:51:13,040 --> 01:51:14,840
Speaker 2: there's something to be said for long Joviye. I believe

2044
01:51:14,880 --> 01:51:17,840
Speaker 2: he not only played twenty five years. It's my understanding.

2045
01:51:17,920 --> 01:51:21,120
Speaker 2: Parma had to pay fifty million dollars to get Buffoon,

2046
01:51:21,360 --> 01:51:23,080
Speaker 2: so you don't pay fifty million dollars.

2047
01:51:22,840 --> 01:51:26,280
Speaker 8: For nobody, No, especially not for goalkeepers. They seemed to

2048
01:51:26,280 --> 01:51:30,240
Speaker 8: be exchanged quite often. This man was nothing if excellence

2049
01:51:30,280 --> 01:51:33,960
Speaker 8: throughout one hundred and also international level, one hundred and

2050
01:51:34,040 --> 01:51:38,000
Speaker 8: seventy six international caps. That's appearances. That means he has

2051
01:51:38,040 --> 01:51:42,400
Speaker 8: played the most of any goalkeeper in FIFA, and he's

2052
01:51:42,439 --> 01:51:44,960
Speaker 8: won a World Cup. I still remember in two thousand

2053
01:51:45,000 --> 01:51:47,400
Speaker 8: and six in the FIFA World Cup him standing up

2054
01:51:47,439 --> 01:51:51,040
Speaker 8: to the French Capitains z Dane, you know, with a

2055
01:51:51,120 --> 01:51:53,400
Speaker 8: with a with an even with an even one to

2056
01:51:53,400 --> 01:51:57,400
Speaker 8: one score between Italy and France, making critical save after

2057
01:51:57,520 --> 01:52:01,240
Speaker 8: critical save, and that led it lead to a World

2058
01:52:01,280 --> 01:52:05,120
Speaker 8: Cup of victory that year. This man is very well decorated.

2059
01:52:05,200 --> 01:52:08,400
Speaker 8: He is he's the only player, he's the only goalkeeper

2060
01:52:08,439 --> 01:52:10,760
Speaker 8: I believe to win the Golden Foot Award. He was

2061
01:52:10,920 --> 01:52:12,680
Speaker 8: running up and I think it belonged to you. Were

2062
01:52:12,720 --> 01:52:15,440
Speaker 8: a couple of times, which again, this is a goalkeeper.

2063
01:52:15,720 --> 01:52:18,800
Speaker 8: Going afterwards, we usually give the high flying strikers like

2064
01:52:18,880 --> 01:52:21,759
Speaker 8: Leonel Messi, like this is a man who has played,

2065
01:52:21,760 --> 01:52:24,800
Speaker 8: who's played a very long time, who's been excellent at

2066
01:52:24,840 --> 01:52:27,760
Speaker 8: what he does at a position that isn't really well

2067
01:52:27,840 --> 01:52:32,000
Speaker 8: regarded unless you're stopping everything. So my gap to Gigi Befon.

2068
01:52:32,240 --> 01:52:33,960
Speaker 2: So you got the last word. Let me just say

2069
01:52:33,960 --> 01:52:38,599
Speaker 2: this thirty year career was not only successful and a

2070
01:52:38,840 --> 01:52:41,479
Speaker 2: highlight film and some of the saves he made, but

2071
01:52:41,600 --> 01:52:46,320
Speaker 2: he was beloved even in Boppe who's who wasn't even

2072
01:52:46,439 --> 01:52:50,599
Speaker 2: born when who fall and started his careers. Call him

2073
01:52:50,680 --> 01:52:52,120
Speaker 2: quote a man with the heart of goal. You get

2074
01:52:52,160 --> 01:52:52,679
Speaker 2: the last word.

2075
01:52:53,520 --> 01:52:55,519
Speaker 8: No, that's that's exactly what it is. He's been well

2076
01:52:55,560 --> 01:52:58,439
Speaker 8: regarded throughout the ages. You know, you've just said it right.

2077
01:52:58,320 --> 01:53:00,400
Speaker 5: There and Bope to pay.

2078
01:53:00,960 --> 01:53:03,680
Speaker 8: There's something to be said about from the guys like

2079
01:53:03,760 --> 01:53:06,400
Speaker 8: that who understand whose job is to put the ball

2080
01:53:06,439 --> 01:53:09,200
Speaker 8: in the net tipping their cap to a man whose

2081
01:53:09,240 --> 01:53:11,880
Speaker 8: only job, and it's a frightful job every time, is

2082
01:53:11,920 --> 01:53:15,720
Speaker 8: to stop that from happening. It's iron sharpening iron, and

2083
01:53:15,800 --> 01:53:20,160
Speaker 8: he was probably the best steel wall that money could

2084
01:53:20,200 --> 01:53:22,720
Speaker 8: buy out there, both on the professional side and on

2085
01:53:22,760 --> 01:53:23,960
Speaker 8: the international side.

2086
01:53:24,040 --> 01:53:24,960
Speaker 5: So after a.

2087
01:53:24,960 --> 01:53:27,720
Speaker 8: Very long, cool career, Gigi Beafoon, go have yourself from

2088
01:53:27,760 --> 01:53:31,360
Speaker 8: de Serono and mellow and mellow out, my friend, because

2089
01:53:31,600 --> 01:53:34,400
Speaker 8: it's been a long, wonderful career and I love to

2090
01:53:34,400 --> 01:53:36,160
Speaker 8: see it. I've always been a huge fan of the

2091
01:53:36,200 --> 01:53:39,839
Speaker 8: Italian leagues, the Italian scene, and he is an absolute

2092
01:53:39,960 --> 01:53:41,120
Speaker 8: legend in my eyes.

2093
01:53:42,439 --> 01:53:46,080
Speaker 2: All right, Chris, twenty four hours, it gets real. History

2094
01:53:46,120 --> 01:53:48,240
Speaker 2: will be made tomorrow one way or the other, wheel

2095
01:53:48,320 --> 01:53:53,160
Speaker 2: tip will it? All right? It's Christopher Fett's World of Soccer.

2096
01:53:53,160 --> 01:53:57,840
Speaker 2: Will be back to thirty am Pacific five thirty am

2097
01:53:57,880 --> 01:54:05,400
Speaker 2: Eastern proximate, thirty minutes into the court at the quarterfinal match,

2098
01:54:06,400 --> 01:54:12,240
Speaker 2: actually round a sixteen match with Sweden coming up. The

2099
01:54:12,360 --> 01:54:17,920
Speaker 2: US women's team lost something above and beyond after their

2100
01:54:17,920 --> 01:54:22,960
Speaker 2: performance against Portugal. I'll spell it out for you. You might

2101

Speaker 2: back in Los Angeles, Mark Ramsey, our technical producer, Kevin

2109

Speaker 2: Figures on the updates, and Shay Morgan guard in for

2110
01:54:58,040 --> 01:55:03,200
Speaker 2: Ethan good job tonight, guys, appreciate all the efforts well

2111
01:55:03,240 --> 01:55:07,520
Speaker 2: the US women's team. They lost something above and beyond

2112
01:55:08,720 --> 01:55:13,160
Speaker 2: what their reputation was in terms of domination in the

2113
01:55:13,200 --> 01:55:15,880
Speaker 2: World Cup stage. Yes, they've advanced to the knockout stage,

2114
01:55:15,880 --> 01:55:17,880
Speaker 2: but they didn't win their group. But they lost something else.

2115
01:55:18,560 --> 01:55:22,360
Speaker 2: No more TV primetime. As a result of the US

2116
01:55:22,720 --> 01:55:24,920
Speaker 2: not winning their group, they will not play any more

2117
01:55:25,000 --> 01:55:28,880
Speaker 2: games in primetime in the Women's World Cup. That's what

2118
01:55:29,000 --> 01:55:33,120
Speaker 2: happens a second place finishing group. E Well, that relegates

2119
01:55:33,160 --> 01:55:37,200
Speaker 2: the US to less than ideal match times. So you

2120
01:55:37,320 --> 01:55:41,400
Speaker 2: had a bunch of anxious moments and the women's failure

2121
01:55:41,480 --> 01:55:43,520
Speaker 2: to win their group at the fifth of World Cup

2122
01:55:43,680 --> 01:55:46,520
Speaker 2: for the first time in twelve years. It's not great

2123
01:55:46,560 --> 01:55:48,960
Speaker 2: news for Fox Sports. I can't believe they're too happy

2124
01:55:48,960 --> 01:55:53,080
Speaker 2: about this. He had a gorless straw against Portugal Thursday.

2125
01:55:53,160 --> 01:55:57,960
Speaker 2: The Netherlands Meanwhile, mollywops Vietnam seven to nothing. As Kevin

2126
01:55:58,000 --> 01:56:00,960
Speaker 2: would say, that gives the US a second place finish.

2127
01:56:01,040 --> 01:56:04,120
Speaker 2: That means the States they get to watch the remainder

2128
01:56:04,160 --> 01:56:06,879
Speaker 2: of their quest in the middle of the night, including

2129
01:56:06,960 --> 01:56:11,000
Speaker 2: five am Eastern tomorrow two am, just twenty four hours

2130
01:56:11,000 --> 01:56:12,680
Speaker 2: from now. If they get to the quarterfinals, that'll be

2131
01:56:12,720 --> 01:56:15,040
Speaker 2: played at three thirty am. They get to the semi

2132
01:56:15,080 --> 01:56:17,480
Speaker 2: finals four am. Of course, the finals were gonna be

2133
01:56:17,480 --> 01:56:21,320
Speaker 2: at six am regardless, So none of these times are

2134
01:56:21,320 --> 01:56:24,640
Speaker 2: good whether you're on the East Coast or the West coast.

2135
01:56:24,840 --> 01:56:29,720
Speaker 2: And it's a shame because the US Netherlands match set

2136
01:56:29,760 --> 01:56:34,040
Speaker 2: a record for Women's World Cup group stage viewership after

2137
01:56:34,080 --> 01:56:38,360
Speaker 2: the opening match. I forget who the opening match was,

2138
01:56:38,360 --> 01:56:41,360
Speaker 2: it started the World Cup. That was a near record

2139
01:56:41,440 --> 01:56:44,520
Speaker 2: as well. So the US, they're still the defending champ,

2140
01:56:44,840 --> 01:56:47,040
Speaker 2: they're still going for a three peat. They haven't been

2141
01:56:47,120 --> 01:56:50,400
Speaker 2: knocked out yet. They still have arguably the most recognizable

2142
01:56:50,480 --> 01:56:53,920
Speaker 2: names worldwide. And clearly Fox was betting on the women's

2143
01:56:53,920 --> 01:56:56,040
Speaker 2: world team winning its group. They were minus four hundred

2144
01:56:56,080 --> 01:56:59,920
Speaker 2: betting favorites, which is about an eighty five percent chance.

2145
01:57:00,320 --> 01:57:03,600
Speaker 2: It collaborated with FIFA in the knockout stage windows. Had

2146
01:57:03,640 --> 01:57:06,040
Speaker 2: the US won the group, they would have been playing

2147
01:57:07,120 --> 01:57:12,080
Speaker 2: Saturday night at seven pm Pacific, ten pm Eastern. And

2148
01:57:12,120 --> 01:57:14,160
Speaker 2: if they would have won, we'd have gotten him in

2149
01:57:14,160 --> 01:57:18,280
Speaker 2: primetime next Thursday at six pm Pacific, nine am Eastern.

2150
01:57:18,680 --> 01:57:22,560
Speaker 2: So another that's just more grist for the mill between

2151
01:57:22,600 --> 01:57:26,840
Speaker 2: the dancing celebration that looked goofy. They underperformed, but they

2152
01:57:26,840 --> 01:57:31,160
Speaker 2: did advance. So light a candle, get rope burns on

2153
01:57:31,200 --> 01:57:33,600
Speaker 2: your rosary. The team is gonna need it. We'll see

2154
01:57:33,640 --> 01:57:35,800
Speaker 2: what happens twenty four hours from now when they teed

2155
01:57:35,880 --> 01:57:40,120
Speaker 2: up against Sweden and they're still the favorite, so we'll

2156
01:57:40,120 --> 01:57:43,600
Speaker 2: see what happens. Although I don't feel good about it.

2157
01:57:44,160 --> 01:57:47,040
Speaker 2: That's going to do it for Tonight's version of the

2158
01:57:47,160 --> 01:57:50,120
Speaker 2: Bernie Freddle Show. Back on these airwaves Saturday, eleven pm.

2159
01:57:50,440 --> 01:57:53,040
Speaker 2: Keep it locked up next to the great Anthony Gargano,

2160
01:57:53,160 --> 01:57:54,160
