And if you got a minute, I'd like 30 00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:15,959 Speaker 2: to talk about the history of our day, buck, the 31 00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:17,920 Speaker 2: history of Father's Day if I can. If you got 32 00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:19,760 Speaker 2: a minute, all right, do you have a minute for me? 33 00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:23,479 Speaker 2: All right? On July fifth, nineteen oh eight, at West 34 00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:27,319 Speaker 2: Virginia Church sponsored the nation's first event in honor of fathers. 35 00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:29,920 Speaker 2: It was a Sunday sermon in memory of the three 36 00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:32,039 Speaker 2: hundred and sixty two men who had died in the 37 00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:36,200 Speaker 2: previous December's explosion at the Fairmont Cole Company mines. Okay, 38 00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:39,280 Speaker 2: but this was not the annual holiday. It was just 39 00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:42,760 Speaker 2: a one time deal, one time celebration. Then next year 40 00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:46,880 Speaker 2: and Spokene, Washington, a woman named Sonora Smart Dodd, one 41 00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:49,480 Speaker 2: of six children raised by her widower. She tried to 42 00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:53,760 Speaker 2: establish an official equivalent to Mother's Day for guys for us. Okay, 43 00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:56,000 Speaker 2: she went to the churches, went to the YMCA, so 44 00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:59,200 Speaker 2: all of a sudden it kind of took root. They 45 00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:02,160 Speaker 2: really did, and Washington State celebrated the nation's first state 46 00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:06,280 Speaker 2: White Father's Day on June the nineteenth, June the nineteenth, 47 00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:09,560 Speaker 2: and nineteen ten, and in nineteen twenty four, President Calvin 48 00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:12,920 Speaker 2: Coolidge urged state governments to observe Father's Day. It is 49 00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:15,680 Speaker 2: now the third Sunday in June, and it is our day. 50 00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:17,919 Speaker 2: And what do you got planned today? Buck? I want 51 00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:20,680 Speaker 2: to do nothing. That's what I want to do. Nothing today. 52 00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:23,080 Speaker 2: My boys, both my sons, my daughter in law, they 53 00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:25,280 Speaker 2: are coming over today and I'm not gonna do a 54 00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:25,919 Speaker 2: damn thing. 55 00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:29,320 Speaker 3: No, So it's gonna be pretty chill day. My son 56 00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:33,200 Speaker 3: is playing baseball in Nebraska, so I probably, like he 57 00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:34,840 Speaker 3: is the day off, so I'll probably catch up with 58 00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:37,639 Speaker 3: him via fay Sime. My daughter's gonna hang out, We're 59 00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:40,200 Speaker 3: gonna grab dinner. It's gonna be a pretty chill day. 60 00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:42,080 Speaker 2: Yes, that's a great day, and I hope you have 61 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:43,880 Speaker 2: a great Father's Day. I really do. Now, let's talk 62 00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:48,280 Speaker 2: a little bit about this NBA player situation, because the line, 63 00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:50,959 Speaker 2: the storylines for this players, it's ridiculous. They really are, 64 00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:53,280 Speaker 2: you know, first off to talk about Luca Danchu's and 65 00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:55,880 Speaker 2: the heat that he's getting. I have no idea why, 66 00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:58,400 Speaker 2: I really don't. I mean, his defense leaves Sunday to 67 00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:01,120 Speaker 2: be desired. But this guy's averaging twenty nine points, seven 68 00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:03,960 Speaker 2: points a game, nine rebounds, and six assists in the games. 69 00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:06,040 Speaker 2: And I know they're down three to one and the 70 00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:08,080 Speaker 2: game will the series will be over tomorrow and boys, 71 00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:11,040 Speaker 2: I no doubt about that. And stories have circulated on 72 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:14,239 Speaker 2: social media that Celtic fans who purchase tickets to a 73 00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:17,240 Speaker 2: Game five wanted the team to lose in Dallas the 74 00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:19,400 Speaker 2: other day in Game four so they could celebrate the 75 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:22,040 Speaker 2: title tomorrow night in Boston. Yeah. I don't know. I 76 00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:23,400 Speaker 2: get it. You have a ticket, you want to see 77 00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:25,360 Speaker 2: the celebration. But I think if you're a fan of 78 00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:26,920 Speaker 2: a team, you never want to see your team lose. 79 00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:29,280 Speaker 2: I mean, I did. I don't understand it at all. 80 00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:30,560 Speaker 2: Explain that one to me. 81 00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:34,120 Speaker 3: He can't really explain that, But I do understand the 82 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:36,360 Speaker 3: sentiment of wanting to celebrate on your home floor. 83 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:37,880 Speaker 4: Imagine you're a Boston fan. 84 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:40,000 Speaker 3: You have an opportunity to watch them do it on 85 00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:42,760 Speaker 3: top of the Leprechaun what better way. 86 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:43,040 Speaker 4: To do it? 87 00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:46,320 Speaker 3: To win at you know, the home arena, then make 88 00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:48,240 Speaker 3: it out to your favorite bar, hang out with the people, 89 00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:48,880 Speaker 3: will hang out. 90 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:51,960 Speaker 4: With all of your favorites, all of the locals. 91 00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:55,920 Speaker 3: I can understand why maybe you didn't root against them 92 00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:58,600 Speaker 3: in game four, but maybe you're okay with them coming 93 00:03:58,640 --> 00:03:59,400 Speaker 3: back in game. 94 00:03:59,160 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 4: Five to do it. 95 00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:02,080 Speaker 3: But I will say it puts a different level of 96 00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:05,880 Speaker 3: pressure on Boston to get it done tonight because if 97 00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:09,080 Speaker 3: you lose tonight, then the pressure continues to mount and 98 00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:11,480 Speaker 3: escalate because the close that game is the hardest game. 99 00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 4: We've heard players talk about that. 100 00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:16,080 Speaker 3: It'd be interesting to see how the energy either works 101 00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:18,680 Speaker 3: for the Celtics or works against the Celtics as they 102 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:19,520 Speaker 3: try and get this done. 103 00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:22,120 Speaker 2: The Celtic we'll get to them in a second. Was 104 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:24,520 Speaker 2: then they got no respect. But the thing is with Luca, 105 00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:26,960 Speaker 2: I have no idea what's going on. And certainly I 106 00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:29,560 Speaker 2: was glad to see that Jason Kidd just the other 107 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:31,400 Speaker 2: night kind of stuck up for him and he said 108 00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:35,000 Speaker 2: something about the media barbecuing him and the hot criticism 109 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:37,240 Speaker 2: he's getting. He told him to back off a little bit. 110 00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:39,839 Speaker 2: I thought it was correct. I mean, look, this team 111 00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:42,320 Speaker 2: is his team. He carries them on his back. I mean, 112 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:45,119 Speaker 2: he gets some elfan Kyrie Irving, but basically I would 113 00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:47,040 Speaker 2: have to say he's the best offensive player in the 114 00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:49,359 Speaker 2: game right now, maybe the best overall player in the 115 00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 2: game right now. Have for him to get heat like that, 116 00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:55,360 Speaker 2: it's ridiculous. Look, the one criticism I guess he could 117 00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:57,960 Speaker 2: have the fact that he winds and cries at the officials, 118 00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:00,240 Speaker 2: but he didn't do that in Game four. You know, 119 00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:02,720 Speaker 2: I get it, you get upset. You gotta get frustrated 120 00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:04,200 Speaker 2: people pushing and shoving on you. 121 00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:07,080 Speaker 4: Yeah no, but I can't let him off the hook. 122 00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:09,479 Speaker 3: Like when you're the best player, you do carry the 123 00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:12,200 Speaker 3: brunt of the criticism. I think about all the years 124 00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:13,960 Speaker 3: that Lebron had to deal with the weight of being 125 00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:17,200 Speaker 3: the face of the NBA and how the expectation was 126 00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:19,600 Speaker 3: for him, regardless of who he had. If he didn't 127 00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:24,640 Speaker 3: win the championship, it was a failure. Luca has worked 128 00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:28,039 Speaker 3: his way into that category where their high expectations for him. 129 00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:31,359 Speaker 3: He is unequivocally the best offensive player in the game. 130 00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:34,080 Speaker 3: He does have issues when it comes to playing defense. 131 00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:36,040 Speaker 3: They were isolating them, they were taking them to task. 132 00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:39,159 Speaker 3: They were barbecuing them one on one. The other part 133 00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:44,000 Speaker 3: of Luca's game is really his personality. He has to 134 00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:47,560 Speaker 3: stop whining and crying because what happens when he winds 135 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:50,880 Speaker 3: and cries one he stops playing and so it gives 136 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:53,040 Speaker 3: the other team a five on four advantage because he's 137 00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:55,159 Speaker 3: down there messing with the official. But this says a 138 00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:58,400 Speaker 3: bad message to his team because when his body language 139 00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:01,080 Speaker 3: is all bad, his shoulders are slump, it gives. 140 00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:03,280 Speaker 4: Them a reason to then wind and complain. He has 141 00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:03,960 Speaker 4: to tighten it up. 142 00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:09,080 Speaker 3: He has to know that, look with great responsibility comes 143 00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:11,159 Speaker 3: with being the leader of the team, and he just 144 00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:13,880 Speaker 3: has to make sure that he carries himself at a 145 00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:17,000 Speaker 3: higher holds himself to a higher standard when it comes 146 00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:19,640 Speaker 3: to that, he's going to wind and complain some but 147 00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:21,320 Speaker 3: he can't do it every play, and it was to 148 00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:24,080 Speaker 3: the point that it was every play and he can't 149 00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:27,240 Speaker 3: get He can't file out if he's the best player, 150 00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:29,280 Speaker 3: you can't file out with five minutes left in the game, 151 00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:31,640 Speaker 3: like you just can't. You have to be available for 152 00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:34,760 Speaker 3: your team. So that's something that he has to continue 153 00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:37,640 Speaker 3: to work on. Maturity can bring about that, But yeah, 154 00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 3: it's something that he has conscious of. 155 00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:41,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, And the one thing I don't think that has been 156 00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:43,719 Speaker 2: brought to the forefront right now is that the injuries 157 00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:45,880 Speaker 2: that he's battling right now. He was on the Game 158 00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:48,480 Speaker 2: three injury report he had a bruce chest. He's been 159 00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:50,880 Speaker 2: on the previous playoff injury reports with a spring knee 160 00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:53,680 Speaker 2: and ankle sore in this So here's the guy. I mean, 161 00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:57,520 Speaker 2: he's just hurt. He's beat up, and look, he's probably 162 00:06:57,560 --> 00:06:58,200 Speaker 2: the main reason. 163 00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:01,600 Speaker 3: And everybody's hurt though you're letting them off the hook. 164 00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:04,920 Speaker 3: Everybody's hurt, everyone's beat up. And I'll say this, like, 165 00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:07,480 Speaker 3: at the level that you're at in the NBA, when 166 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:10,560 Speaker 3: it comes down to plane, no one cares. Like That's 167 00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:11,200 Speaker 3: what I would tell. 168 00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:12,960 Speaker 4: You, Hey man, no one cares of all their ailments. 169 00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:14,880 Speaker 3: When you show up and you decide that you're going 170 00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:17,200 Speaker 3: to play a tip off, no one cares what you're 171 00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 3: dealing with. Like it's a nice backstory, maybe can provide 172 00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:22,960 Speaker 3: some context, but at the end of the day and 173 00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:25,640 Speaker 3: five ten years, when they talk about this finals, no 174 00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:27,560 Speaker 3: one is going to talk about the various things that 175 00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:30,520 Speaker 3: Luca was battling through to be available. So That's why 176 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:32,560 Speaker 3: he has to understand it. He has to gut it out, 177 00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:34,160 Speaker 3: he has to suck it up, and he has to 178 00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:37,200 Speaker 3: play through all of those things and still help the 179 00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:40,600 Speaker 3: Dallas MAVs win. It's a tough task. It's not fair, 180 00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:43,000 Speaker 3: but that's just the way the cars that he's dealt. 181 00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:44,640 Speaker 4: That's what it is when you're starting this league. 182 00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:47,040 Speaker 2: But you would admit that he is the major reason. 183 00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:49,360 Speaker 2: He's the main reason really why the Dallas Mavericks have 184 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 2: be three fifty win teams in the Western Conference this year. 185 00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:56,760 Speaker 3: And reached like he's a killer, like he is terrific 186 00:07:56,840 --> 00:07:57,920 Speaker 3: in the offensive machine. 187 00:07:57,960 --> 00:07:59,960 Speaker 4: He can score, he can get it all done. 188 00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:02,680 Speaker 3: The only thing that takes away from his greatness, I 189 00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:04,640 Speaker 3: would even say not even the defense, because you can 190 00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:06,960 Speaker 3: work around the defense. You can build the team around 191 00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:10,760 Speaker 3: him knowing he's a live building is when he stops 192 00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:14,720 Speaker 3: play to be distracted by the officials. If he's locked 193 00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:17,360 Speaker 3: in and focused like he was in Game four, it's 194 00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:17,960 Speaker 3: not an issue. 195 00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:18,880 Speaker 4: They can play around that. 196 00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:22,280 Speaker 3: So for him is can you mature enough where you're 197 00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:24,880 Speaker 3: locked in, focused and you keep the main thing, the 198 00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:26,480 Speaker 3: main thing, which is putting the ball in the basket 199 00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:27,840 Speaker 3: and find a way to lead this team to win. 200 00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:31,120 Speaker 2: I will say this, and I look back and people 201 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:34,000 Speaker 2: criticizing the Boston Celtics and saying the choke Ottess whatever 202 00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:36,360 Speaker 2: it may be, is TA that won sixty plus games. 203 00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:38,560 Speaker 2: I mean, then I choke out its number one number two. 204 00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:41,600 Speaker 2: When Dallas beat the Celtics the other night in Game four, 205 00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:44,680 Speaker 2: it was the first time that Dallas Mavericks beat the 206 00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:47,680 Speaker 2: Celtics since the twenty twenty one twenty twenty two season. 207 00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:51,800 Speaker 2: That's unbelievable. Look this past year, Boston beat him twice 208 00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:53,800 Speaker 2: in the playoffs one oh five, ninety eight, one oh seven, 209 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:56,600 Speaker 2: eighty nine. I'll go twenty three to twenty four season, 210 00:08:56,880 --> 00:08:59,400 Speaker 2: Boston beat him one thirty eight, one ten. Boston beat 211 00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:01,560 Speaker 2: him on January or the twenty second of that year 212 00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:04,640 Speaker 2: one nineteen, one ten, and in twenty two twenty three 213 00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:06,920 Speaker 2: they beat in one twenty four to ninety five and 214 00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:09,280 Speaker 2: one twenty five, one twelve. They're just a better team. 215 00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:12,199 Speaker 2: Boston is a better team than Dallas, and the media 216 00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:14,920 Speaker 2: can't get that through the head. They want to bury 217 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:18,840 Speaker 2: Jason Tatum. I don't know why. You know that the 218 00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:21,320 Speaker 2: tandem of Tatum and Brown may be the best one 219 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:23,439 Speaker 2: two punch in the NBA. Really. 220 00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:27,400 Speaker 3: Uh yeah, Look, I wouldn't dispute that. The problem that 221 00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:30,440 Speaker 3: you have is we like storylines, we like story arcs, 222 00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:33,520 Speaker 3: We like heroes and villains. And the problem that you 223 00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:35,720 Speaker 3: have with the Celtics, we could talk about Jalen Brown 224 00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:38,120 Speaker 3: and Jason Tatum being the two best players on the team, 225 00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:40,520 Speaker 3: but we really don't have that clear line of distinction 226 00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:42,239 Speaker 3: in terms of who's number. 227 00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:42,960 Speaker 4: One and who's number two. 228 00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:46,319 Speaker 3: We want Jason Tatum to be number one, but Jaylen 229 00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:49,280 Speaker 3: Brown certainly plays like the number one guy, and it's 230 00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:51,480 Speaker 3: hard for some of us to kind of get that 231 00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:54,280 Speaker 3: through that maybe Jayden Brown is the one destroy that 232 00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:56,480 Speaker 3: kind of stirs to drink for this team as opposed 233 00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:59,400 Speaker 3: to Jason Tatum. We always are worried from the media 234 00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:02,760 Speaker 3: standpoint on giving credit who deserves the most credit for 235 00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:06,040 Speaker 3: this team winning, as opposed to recognizing the beauty of 236 00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:09,680 Speaker 3: the team. This team is perfectly constructed, This team is taken. 237 00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:11,520 Speaker 3: I would say a bit of a different approach to 238 00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:13,160 Speaker 3: be able to win games the way they shoot the 239 00:10:13,160 --> 00:10:17,480 Speaker 3: three ball. An analytical driven team. But here they are 240 00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:20,200 Speaker 3: three and one and they have dominated everyone that they 241 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:23,160 Speaker 3: played regardless of the injuries to the key players on 242 00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:25,680 Speaker 3: all the teams that they've knocked off getting to this point, 243 00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:28,760 Speaker 3: that's not their fault. If anything, you use that maybe 244 00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:30,719 Speaker 3: the Boston Celtics are the best conditioned team in the 245 00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:32,680 Speaker 3: league because they haven't had to deal with those injuries, 246 00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:37,280 Speaker 3: with exception of Christaff Porzingis. They'll get their flowers once 247 00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:39,040 Speaker 3: it's all said and done, if they win it, they 248 00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:42,120 Speaker 3: put the eighteenth banner up. But yeah, Jayson Tatum has 249 00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:45,200 Speaker 3: gotten some criticism, but I think it's more because everyone 250 00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:47,520 Speaker 3: wants him to be the number one as opposed to 251 00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:51,319 Speaker 3: appreciating the team for the balanced parts and the way 252 00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:53,120 Speaker 3: the puzzle pieces fit together perfectly. 253 00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:55,760 Speaker 2: You bring up a great play with Jason Kidd after 254 00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:57,720 Speaker 2: the other game the other night, said that he was 255 00:10:57,760 --> 00:10:59,520 Speaker 2: trying to look at least I thought he was trying 256 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:01,280 Speaker 2: to play a medal game in the news conference, saying 257 00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:04,439 Speaker 2: that Jalen Brown was Boston's best player, not Jason Tatum 258 00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:07,280 Speaker 2: trying to cause some problems internally. Not a bad deal 259 00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:09,679 Speaker 2: to get that stuff going. Didn't work, obviously, but I 260 00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:12,440 Speaker 2: agree with him. I think Jalen Brown is the guy 261 00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:14,640 Speaker 2: and if Boston wins tomorrow night, which I think they will. 262 00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:17,480 Speaker 2: I think he'll get the MVP trophy in the tournament, 263 00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:20,559 Speaker 2: in the playoffs, I really believe that he should. 264 00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:23,760 Speaker 3: He's made the most clutch plays and clutch shots in 265 00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:27,880 Speaker 3: those things. Look, man, it's one of those things. It's 266 00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:30,240 Speaker 3: a bit of a popularity contest. It depends on how 267 00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:32,320 Speaker 3: they close it out and who has the biggest game. 268 00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:34,440 Speaker 3: But it should be Jayalen Brown based on what they've 269 00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:34,880 Speaker 3: done to this. 270 00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:37,760 Speaker 2: Point, right And look, you're right, this team is built 271 00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:40,280 Speaker 2: tremendously because I think it was Game two, it was 272 00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:42,760 Speaker 2: it was that true holiday. He had twenty six points, 273 00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:45,000 Speaker 2: eleven rebounds. I mean, so you don't know who's gonna 274 00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:47,240 Speaker 2: get you on that night. They're gonna beat you with 275 00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:49,839 Speaker 2: so many different ways. Derek White, I mean, they got 276 00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:52,439 Speaker 2: guys that could score at will. They got five guys 277 00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:55,080 Speaker 2: that could score at any time on any part of 278 00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:57,040 Speaker 2: the court right now, and it looks like the Celtics 279 00:11:57,120 --> 00:12:00,000 Speaker 2: got this formula down pretty good. They forced a missmap 280 00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:03,240 Speaker 2: is on offense that gets Dallas into a rotation and 281 00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:05,360 Speaker 2: they get into like a catch and the shoot threes 282 00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:07,400 Speaker 2: where they drive for lafs. They can't get it done. 283 00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:09,840 Speaker 2: At the other end, they take away the same shots 284 00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:12,199 Speaker 2: and they kind of live with the Lucas shooting and 285 00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:15,760 Speaker 2: Kyrie Irving shooting one on one and you can't win 286 00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:18,240 Speaker 2: like that. There's not a team effort there in Dallas. 287 00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:21,160 Speaker 2: They just don't have it. They really don't. It's Luca, well, 288 00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:23,480 Speaker 2: Kyrie and one of those guys are off. It's usually 289 00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:26,480 Speaker 2: Kyrie because Luca will get you inside. You can't win 290 00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:28,439 Speaker 2: and they're not gonna win. He needs some help, and 291 00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:31,199 Speaker 2: that's that's what the Celtics have. They got the help. 292 00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:34,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, they do have to help. And it's a tough look. 293 00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:37,000 Speaker 3: It's a tough matchup. I mean, there's the reason why 294 00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:39,400 Speaker 3: the Celtics won sixty four games in the regular season. 295 00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:41,960 Speaker 3: They are loaded their stack. Brad Stevens is don a 296 00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:44,520 Speaker 3: great job of adding the right pieces to the puzzle. 297 00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:47,800 Speaker 3: I talked about how it all fits together. Drew Holliday 298 00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:51,600 Speaker 3: being a huge pickup, being able to pry him from Milwaukee. 299 00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:55,160 Speaker 3: He gets you a veteran defended with a championship pedigree. 300 00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:59,240 Speaker 3: Christap Person gets coming over from Washington, giving them another look. 301 00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:02,720 Speaker 3: A long, deep shooter who early made his impact in 302 00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:05,360 Speaker 3: Game one where we saw how he stretches the defense 303 00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:08,080 Speaker 3: and puts you in bys. This team just plays really, 304 00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:10,120 Speaker 3: really well together. You got to give them credit. You 305 00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:11,679 Speaker 3: got to give Joe Mizoo a lot of credit for 306 00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:14,839 Speaker 3: making sure that the operation flows on the court. 307 00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:15,400 Speaker 2: Uh. 308 00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:16,200 Speaker 4: They're a great team. 309 00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:18,760 Speaker 3: Uh, I mean, are they one of the best teams 310 00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:19,560 Speaker 3: that we've ever seen. 311 00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:21,520 Speaker 4: We'll see what it. 312 00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:23,240 Speaker 3: Looks like when they come back next year, but right 313 00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:24,600 Speaker 3: now we have to give them their flowers. 314 00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:25,600 Speaker 4: They're the best. Uh. 315 00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:27,920 Speaker 3: They've been the best team in the NBA the entire season, 316 00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:30,800 Speaker 3: and it looks like that throughout the post of the postseason. 317 00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:33,200 Speaker 2: I'm with you right there. And look, I would say 318 00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:36,240 Speaker 2: this the other night. I think this is a key 319 00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:39,880 Speaker 2: when the when the Celtics lose, it's usually because they 320 00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:42,960 Speaker 2: beat themselves. And they were horrendous on shooting threes the 321 00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:45,280 Speaker 2: other night. For whatever the reason, it was sluggish. Maybe 322 00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:47,920 Speaker 2: in their mind they just realized that they the court. 323 00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:50,200 Speaker 2: I don't know what goes through an athlete's mind. You 324 00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:52,480 Speaker 2: do you you were an athlete, you played the game. 325 00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:55,319 Speaker 2: You know you're a three Zippi. You're under the the 326 00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:59,240 Speaker 2: visitor's court, uh, and their gymnasium in their arena. I mean, 327 00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:01,320 Speaker 2: what goes through Come on, don't you think you just 328 00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:04,440 Speaker 2: want to go out there and close it out. It 329 00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:06,880 Speaker 2: didn't look like that to me. But again, they beat 330 00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:10,120 Speaker 2: themselves dish to shot selection was poor, and I think 331 00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:12,480 Speaker 2: they're going to come out firing tomorrow night in Boston. 332 00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:17,320 Speaker 3: I mean, that would be the anticipation, sometimes complacency considered. 333 00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:20,400 Speaker 3: Eure up three to one, you kind of expect the 334 00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:23,080 Speaker 3: other team to roll over, and the MAVs played with 335 00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:26,360 Speaker 3: great energy and effort, and that gave them a chance. 336 00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:28,800 Speaker 3: What you normally want to do if you're the Boston 337 00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:30,560 Speaker 3: Celtics in that three to zero game, you want to 338 00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:32,280 Speaker 3: see if you can jump on them early and see 339 00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:34,080 Speaker 3: if they just kind of fall apart in terms of 340 00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:35,680 Speaker 3: like get dejects and just kind of lick go of 341 00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:36,200 Speaker 3: the rope. 342 00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:36,960 Speaker 4: They didn't. 343 00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:38,840 Speaker 3: They had a lot of energy, and so now it 344 00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:41,920 Speaker 3: becomes even that much more difficult to deal with them 345 00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:45,440 Speaker 3: in Game five. The first quarter will really determine a 346 00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:48,360 Speaker 3: lot about how this game finishes out, because if the 347 00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:51,040 Speaker 3: Boston Celtics jump on the MAVs in the first quarter, 348 00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:53,160 Speaker 3: well then it's going to be a forty eight minute 349 00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:56,760 Speaker 3: coronation of the Boston Celtics. But if somehow the Mavericks 350 00:14:56,760 --> 00:14:59,480 Speaker 3: are able to either kind of stave off that emotional 351 00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:02,880 Speaker 3: wave actually what happened, and find themselves in the game, 352 00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:06,960 Speaker 3: then it becomes a little tricky because you remember, this 353 00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:09,120 Speaker 3: team was down three to zero to the Miami Heat 354 00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:10,840 Speaker 3: a year ago and forced. 355 00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:11,520 Speaker 4: It to a game seven. 356 00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:14,200 Speaker 3: If they win this one and it gets to three 357 00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:16,840 Speaker 3: to two, that still has to kind of start to 358 00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:18,640 Speaker 3: creep up in their minds that hey man, this team 359 00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:20,840 Speaker 3: can't come back on us, and it just changes the 360 00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:22,800 Speaker 3: psychological warfare of the series. 361 00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:23,480 Speaker 4: Right. 362 00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:25,960 Speaker 2: I will say this, and I think it's a true statement. 363 00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:28,880 Speaker 2: If not, you know, knock me down on it. For 364 00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:31,320 Speaker 2: the math, for the Dallas Mavericks to come back and 365 00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:36,360 Speaker 2: win three consecutive games, they can't do that without the Celtics' help. 366 00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:38,640 Speaker 2: In other words, the Celtics have to almost give them 367 00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:40,760 Speaker 2: the game, which I think they basically did the other night. 368 00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:44,240 Speaker 2: I heard all the commentators say, great defense, great defense 369 00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:47,760 Speaker 2: by Dallas. Okay, they ramped up the defense a little bit, 370 00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:50,240 Speaker 2: but you know what, they shot something like twenty seven percent. 371 00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:52,240 Speaker 2: They're not going to shoot like that again, Barton. They 372 00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:54,600 Speaker 2: just want that an off night forever you for whatever 373 00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:56,360 Speaker 2: the reason, maybe they was sluggish, I don't know what 374 00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:59,120 Speaker 2: it was, but the point is that, yeah, defense was 375 00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:01,480 Speaker 2: pretty good, but most of the time those shots go win, 376 00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:04,600 Speaker 2: and they were horrendous shooting that night. And again I'll say, 377 00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:09,600 Speaker 2: Dallas cannot win three consecutive games now without helping without 378 00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:12,720 Speaker 2: without the Celtics help. That's the bottom line. 379 00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:15,080 Speaker 3: Well, I mean it's always kind of the case, like 380 00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:16,920 Speaker 3: I mean, you got to play great, but also the 381 00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:19,760 Speaker 3: opponent has to help you. And yeah, the Boston Celtics 382 00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:22,160 Speaker 3: would have to help the Dallas Mavericks. They would have 383 00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:23,520 Speaker 3: to turn the ball over, they would have to do 384 00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:27,400 Speaker 3: some things that would grant the MAVs extra possession and 385 00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:30,880 Speaker 3: points in those things. The other thing, as much as 386 00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:33,320 Speaker 3: we love what the Boston Celtics do when it comes 387 00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:36,600 Speaker 3: to the three point shot, there is some volatility when 388 00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:39,000 Speaker 3: you play that way. The farther way you are from 389 00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:42,080 Speaker 3: the basket, the more the odds begins to diminish on 390 00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:43,720 Speaker 3: terms of you putting the ball in the hole. And 391 00:16:43,760 --> 00:16:45,840 Speaker 3: so you're going to have some of those nights where 392 00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:49,160 Speaker 3: it doesn't go in. Look, they played around one of 393 00:16:49,240 --> 00:16:51,160 Speaker 3: THEMS I think maybe Game two they didn't shoot the 394 00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:53,280 Speaker 3: ball particularly well and still found a way to win. 395 00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:57,520 Speaker 3: The difference was the MAVs made more plays in Game 396 00:16:57,560 --> 00:17:00,520 Speaker 3: four than they made previously in Games two and three, 397 00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:03,440 Speaker 3: and that's why they were able to win. So it's 398 00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:06,600 Speaker 3: been a fourth quarter affair most of these games. We'll 399 00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:08,120 Speaker 3: see if it continues to be that way. 400 00:17:08,440 --> 00:17:10,600 Speaker 2: It amazes me. I mean, the bottom line is is 401 00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:13,119 Speaker 2: with media coverage of this series right now, maybe because 402 00:17:13,520 --> 00:17:15,960 Speaker 2: it's not really a Hollywood type series, there's really no 403 00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:19,800 Speaker 2: really big villain, and sometimes a villain's important in sports 404 00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:23,080 Speaker 2: because you could root four or against that guy. But again, 405 00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:26,440 Speaker 2: I will say this, Lucas getting drilled for the rent 406 00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:28,159 Speaker 2: of the reason. I don't know why. Maybe it's just 407 00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:31,040 Speaker 2: a storyline and the Celtics get no respect, and should 408 00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:33,560 Speaker 2: they win, they'll say, well, they won because you know, 409 00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:36,080 Speaker 2: there was injuries in Milwaukee, there was injuries in Philadelphia. 410 00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:37,879 Speaker 2: They had an easy way to get through the East. 411 00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:40,320 Speaker 2: I mean, come on, really, you win sixty four freaking 412 00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:42,359 Speaker 2: games during the year, you got to give this team 413 00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:45,200 Speaker 2: some credit. And should they lose, oh my goodness, it'll 414 00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:47,680 Speaker 2: be the biggest collapse in sports. So you know they 415 00:17:47,720 --> 00:17:51,040 Speaker 2: can't win for whatever the reason. So it's just the 416 00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:53,960 Speaker 2: way it's the way it's laid out for these two teams. 417 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:55,640 Speaker 2: It's just it's said. It really is. 418 00:17:57,200 --> 00:17:58,679 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, I don't know if it's sad. I mean, 419 00:17:58,720 --> 00:17:59,240 Speaker 4: it's just the. 420 00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:02,080 Speaker 3: Way that it is India the public when we have 421 00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:04,399 Speaker 3: like so many talking here, it's covering the sport. You 422 00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:06,560 Speaker 3: can get some of these opinions, but it makes a 423 00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:07,639 Speaker 3: great fodder. 424 00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:08,280 Speaker 4: If they lose. 425 00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:12,840 Speaker 3: It makes for an even more glorious Hollywood ending in 426 00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:15,840 Speaker 3: terms of, like we see the story arc where they 427 00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:17,600 Speaker 3: have to have a little adversity because the Selvin's Seven 428 00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:20,159 Speaker 3: faced any adversity throughout the postseason, Like they've kind of 429 00:18:20,160 --> 00:18:24,960 Speaker 3: skated through the postseason really unscathed. So there is a 430 00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:27,080 Speaker 3: part of me and maybe a part of the public 431 00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:28,560 Speaker 3: they're kind of wants to see them have to battle 432 00:18:28,560 --> 00:18:30,840 Speaker 3: through some stuff before they can get the chip. We'll 433 00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:32,800 Speaker 3: see if it materializes on the court when they take 434 00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:33,120 Speaker 3: it again. 435 00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:33,760 Speaker 4: Game fun. 436 00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:35,480 Speaker 2: It'll be over tomorrow night, so we have to worry 437 00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:38,560 Speaker 2: about it.

That's right 479 00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:29,119 Speaker 2: around the corner. He is Bucky Brooks. I'm Andy Fremen, 480 00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:32,119 Speaker 2: and this is Father's Day on Fox Sports Sunday on 481 00:20:32,200 --> 00:20:34,040 Speaker 2: Fox Sports. Lady by the way, Buck, you know, I 482 00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:36,880 Speaker 2: really thought I was tired when I heard all these 483 00:20:36,920 --> 00:20:40,480 Speaker 2: Taylor Swift stories, but then Caitlyn Clark came along, so 484 00:20:40,560 --> 00:20:43,200 Speaker 2: I don't know. I mean, and look, I have nothing 485 00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:45,199 Speaker 2: against the young lady, and I think she's done a 486 00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:48,359 Speaker 2: world of good for women's basketball and basketball in general. 487 00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:51,120 Speaker 2: But it's getting out of control. And why I say 488 00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:54,119 Speaker 2: that because the story with her is so amazing because 489 00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:58,720 Speaker 2: it involves sports obviously, it involves politics, and it involves race. 490 00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:00,520 Speaker 2: I don't know if that's good A yeah, but that's 491 00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:02,440 Speaker 2: what it does. Don't you agree with that. I mean, 492 00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:06,000 Speaker 2: it's not just a sports figure about her talents or 493 00:21:06,040 --> 00:21:08,840 Speaker 2: a lot thereof, or the development that she has in 494 00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:12,119 Speaker 2: the WNBA. It's about politics and race, and people who 495 00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:14,639 Speaker 2: don't even know what one damn thing about the WNBA 496 00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:17,440 Speaker 2: are getting involved, who probably never saw a WNBA game 497 00:21:17,560 --> 00:21:18,240 Speaker 2: in their life. 498 00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:21,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, it touches on even more than that. 499 00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:28,840 Speaker 3: Like you talk about sport, race politics, it talks on 500 00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:34,119 Speaker 3: political things. When it comes to gender, it comes to 501 00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:40,280 Speaker 3: even delving into you know, sexuality and prefaces in those things. 502 00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:44,159 Speaker 3: And so there's a lot of factors that have been 503 00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:47,000 Speaker 3: kind of lumped into it when it comes to Caitlyn Clark. 504 00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:49,520 Speaker 3: And I'll say this, man, I think America owns Caitlin 505 00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:52,520 Speaker 3: clark apology, because she's really being used as a prop, 506 00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:54,960 Speaker 3: you know, like she's being used as a prop for 507 00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:57,199 Speaker 3: a lot of people with different agendas that want to 508 00:21:57,240 --> 00:22:02,720 Speaker 3: discuss various things, but they're using her to face involuntarily 509 00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:06,840 Speaker 3: and so like, so she doesn't really have a lot 510 00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:11,359 Speaker 3: that she can do because people are quickly attaching their 511 00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:14,760 Speaker 3: personal beliefs to her. And it's not fair because on 512 00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:16,800 Speaker 3: the court, look, man, she's a baller. We'll see if 513 00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:18,840 Speaker 3: she can be a star in the NBA in terms 514 00:22:18,840 --> 00:22:23,080 Speaker 3: of like her game. But she certainly is someone that 515 00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:25,280 Speaker 3: has brought a lot of attention, a lot of notoriety 516 00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:29,119 Speaker 3: to the w NBA, and because of that, you have 517 00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:32,320 Speaker 3: more eyeballs, but you also have more talking heads discussing 518 00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:35,560 Speaker 3: the sport and discussing the sport using her as. 519 00:22:35,359 --> 00:22:36,199 Speaker 4: A central figure. 520 00:22:36,680 --> 00:22:38,439 Speaker 3: I just wish that she would be able to just 521 00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:42,720 Speaker 3: kind of play without kind of being involved as kind 522 00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:44,320 Speaker 3: of like the star of the drama. 523 00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:46,600 Speaker 4: But unfortunately that's not kind of like the world that 524 00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:47,080 Speaker 4: we live in. 525 00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:49,760 Speaker 2: It's funny and finally, she spoke out just the other day, 526 00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:51,800 Speaker 2: I was hobby she did. She's saying that commentators have 527 00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:55,439 Speaker 2: used her name as you mentioned to denigrate other WNBA players, 528 00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:57,840 Speaker 2: and I'm saying who and when I need names, I 529 00:22:57,840 --> 00:23:00,600 Speaker 2: want to hear about this. She said these comments are 530 00:23:00,600 --> 00:23:03,880 Speaker 2: not acceptable. Finally, and I'm kind of quoting her to 531 00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:06,440 Speaker 2: some extent, not exactly, but she said, people shouldn't be 532 00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:09,320 Speaker 2: using my name to push these agendas. It's disappointing, it's 533 00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:12,720 Speaker 2: not acceptable. Thank you, Caitlin. Finally you're speaking on how 534 00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:15,159 Speaker 2: much can you take? These people are killing her? You know, 535 00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:17,200 Speaker 2: she's treating every single woman in this sleep with the 536 00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:19,520 Speaker 2: same amount of respect. I think it's just a basic 537 00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:22,160 Speaker 2: human thing that everybody should do. And it's crazy. I mean, 538 00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:25,000 Speaker 2: I don't know where this came from, why it's coming from. 539 00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:27,760 Speaker 2: I don't know who started it, but it's like you say, 540 00:23:27,800 --> 00:23:30,240 Speaker 2: it's got to stop, and people do owe her an apologies. 541 00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:32,159 Speaker 2: You said, they really do. It's crazy. 542 00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:33,560 Speaker 4: Well, no, I won't stop. 543 00:23:33,600 --> 00:23:38,439 Speaker 3: Because of the way that our media, I guess world 544 00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:42,800 Speaker 3: is constructed, we have to utilize certain people to begin 545 00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:46,359 Speaker 3: to push different things. And at a time where the 546 00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:50,800 Speaker 3: country is very very political and divided and like everything 547 00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:54,359 Speaker 3: is very very touchy and volatile, she has been thrust 548 00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:58,240 Speaker 3: in the middle of that war, and you have people 549 00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:03,160 Speaker 3: from like variants competing and utilizing her to push certain 550 00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:07,080 Speaker 3: narratives and continue to further different stereotypes, and you have 551 00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:10,320 Speaker 3: other people trying to rebuff stereotypes utilizing her and where 552 00:24:10,359 --> 00:24:12,720 Speaker 3: she stacks in the league as that part of it. 553 00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:14,800 Speaker 3: And no, it's not fair to her. It's not even 554 00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:17,280 Speaker 3: really fair that she has to speak up. Like we 555 00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:19,320 Speaker 3: all should be compelled to do what we want to 556 00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:22,360 Speaker 3: do when it comes to weighing in and offering our opinion. 557 00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:25,440 Speaker 3: Some of us are more workers, we do by example, 558 00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:28,040 Speaker 3: others are more vocal. Well, now she has been forced 559 00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:30,200 Speaker 3: to be vocal because all of the criticism that she 560 00:24:30,280 --> 00:24:32,439 Speaker 3: has taken in terms of hey, you should speak up 561 00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:34,680 Speaker 3: if you don't believe in these things, etc. 562 00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:35,120 Speaker 4: Etc. 563 00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:37,880 Speaker 3: But no, it's not fair to her, like everyone who 564 00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:40,240 Speaker 3: has picked it up, and the thing that frustrates made one. 565 00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:42,560 Speaker 3: I will say this, I'm a women's basketball fan. I've 566 00:24:42,560 --> 00:24:45,240 Speaker 3: been a long time women's basketball fan. I have five 567 00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:48,040 Speaker 3: or six friends that coach women's basketball in college and 568 00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:51,480 Speaker 3: so my fandom comes from the joy of the game. 569 00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:53,560 Speaker 3: And some of the takes that are here on Kaitlyn 570 00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:57,120 Speaker 3: Clark have nothing to do with Kaitlyn Clark's game because 571 00:24:57,119 --> 00:24:59,120 Speaker 3: you can tell people haven't really watched her and they 572 00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:03,720 Speaker 3: haven't watched college or the WNBA, And to me, it 573 00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:08,080 Speaker 3: has been a little disrespectful to what the expectations have 574 00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:10,720 Speaker 3: been in terms of like how everyone should just kind 575 00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:13,440 Speaker 3: of fawn over Caitlin Clark that is in the league, 576 00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:16,440 Speaker 3: when if you know women's basketball, if you know athletics, 577 00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:19,240 Speaker 3: you know that competitors love going toe to toe with 578 00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:22,840 Speaker 3: the next hot name. That's a part of kind of 579 00:25:22,880 --> 00:25:26,200 Speaker 3: like the alpha mentality that is embedded. 580 00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:26,240 Speaker 4: In the sport. 581 00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:29,720 Speaker 3: And then the other part is like we always as 582 00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:32,600 Speaker 3: a country talk about priding ourselves and being a meritocracy, 583 00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:34,720 Speaker 3: and people have to earn their way to do those things, 584 00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:36,240 Speaker 3: and you got to get it out the muck, you 585 00:25:36,320 --> 00:25:38,840 Speaker 3: got to do all this. But yet the conversation that 586 00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:41,000 Speaker 3: we've had the last few weeks has been, oh, she 587 00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:43,439 Speaker 3: should be on the Olympics team because we're trying to 588 00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:45,800 Speaker 3: promote the sport. Well wait a minute, like she should 589 00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:47,440 Speaker 3: be good enough to get on the team if we're 590 00:25:47,560 --> 00:25:50,280 Speaker 3: promoting the sport, not just given a thing. Because so 591 00:25:50,359 --> 00:25:53,280 Speaker 3: much of what we've heard is don't give people handouts, 592 00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:55,800 Speaker 3: don't give people passes. They need to earn the right. 593 00:25:56,080 --> 00:25:58,280 Speaker 3: If she's qualified, if she's good enough. 594 00:25:58,160 --> 00:25:59,000 Speaker 4: She should be on it. 595 00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:01,920 Speaker 3: And so it's all of these things that really frustrate 596 00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:04,919 Speaker 3: me when I hear the conversation, because I feel like 597 00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:07,320 Speaker 3: in America we want it like we want it both ways, 598 00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:08,680 Speaker 3: and you can't have it both ways. 599 00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:11,000 Speaker 2: You know, I'm glad you mentioned the Olympic team because 600 00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:12,680 Speaker 2: I don't get a lot of things right on this show, 601 00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:15,000 Speaker 2: especially when he played by the batrel Bellty. You'd be 602 00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:16,720 Speaker 2: betting you beat the living daylights out of me. But 603 00:26:16,760 --> 00:26:19,679 Speaker 2: I did say something last week, and you could sickond 604 00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:21,800 Speaker 2: that if it was true. We talked about the Olympic 605 00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:23,680 Speaker 2: team that she was left off, and I said, wouldn't 606 00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:26,600 Speaker 2: be nice if a player like a Brittany Grinder would say, 607 00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:28,680 Speaker 2: you know what, I got that broken toe, I haven't 608 00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:31,040 Speaker 2: played much. Maybe I'll move aside. Let her come on. 609 00:26:31,320 --> 00:26:33,439 Speaker 2: Didn't that happen just the other day? She's now an 610 00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:35,840 Speaker 2: alternate kit and Clark's now an alternate on the Olympic 611 00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:38,600 Speaker 2: team because Brittany Grinder has left. She's not on the team. 612 00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:41,280 Speaker 2: And now the stories are coming out about Brittany on 613 00:26:41,320 --> 00:26:43,720 Speaker 2: social media that you know, maybe she couldn't pass a 614 00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:46,680 Speaker 2: drug test. I mean, it's unbelievable. You know, there are 615 00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:49,639 Speaker 2: no facts anymore. People look at social media take it 616 00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:51,520 Speaker 2: for what it's worth and they don't do any fact 617 00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:55,800 Speaker 2: checking that there's no reporting. It's just rumor mill and 618 00:26:55,840 --> 00:26:58,680 Speaker 2: people use that for their news source. I don't know 619 00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:01,160 Speaker 2: if Britney Grinder is gonna test positive or not. Well, 620 00:27:01,160 --> 00:27:03,000 Speaker 2: I know is this it was a nice gesture that 621 00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:06,040 Speaker 2: she's no longer she bowed out, you know. And the 622 00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:08,600 Speaker 2: fact that she didn't say why it's aid personal reasons. 623 00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:11,080 Speaker 2: Oh boy, that opened the door for everything, and you 624 00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:11,640 Speaker 2: know who knows. 625 00:27:11,680 --> 00:27:13,879 Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, yeah, it opens the door. I mean, look, 626 00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:17,200 Speaker 3: Kaitlyn Clark's eventually going to give her opportunity to make 627 00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:19,720 Speaker 3: the Olympic team. But I think people have to understand 628 00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:22,480 Speaker 3: this is the most difficult team to make in sports. 629 00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:25,639 Speaker 3: When you think about the women's team sixty six and three, 630 00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:29,720 Speaker 3: they've been of late, you know, turned seventh straight gold medals. 631 00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:32,959 Speaker 3: When you think about Hall of famers who didn't make 632 00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:34,919 Speaker 3: the team their first try, Dawn state they didn't make 633 00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:37,560 Speaker 3: her the team the first try. You think about the 634 00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:41,600 Speaker 3: w NBA, the countless women who have played in WNBA 635 00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:43,960 Speaker 3: and Shine of ben Stars and haven't had an opportunity 636 00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:47,400 Speaker 3: to make the WNBA. I mean to make the Olympic team. 637 00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:50,920 Speaker 3: In fact, I heard this, I think the youngest player 638 00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:55,440 Speaker 3: on the team maybe twenty seven, twenty eight, because they 639 00:27:55,520 --> 00:27:58,560 Speaker 3: value experience, and because Caitlyn Clark hasn't played in any 640 00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:01,439 Speaker 3: of the preliminary stuff, none of the camps, none of 641 00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:04,280 Speaker 3: the friendlies, none of the other the exhibitions or whatever, 642 00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:07,760 Speaker 3: like the coach doesn't know her, and so I think 643 00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:12,080 Speaker 3: people underestimate that part of it. Sports are about relationships. 644 00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:15,800 Speaker 3: It's about like building that commitment, accountability and trust where 645 00:28:15,800 --> 00:28:18,680 Speaker 3: when you walk out onto the court, everyone. 646 00:28:18,320 --> 00:28:18,960 Speaker 4: Knows that a. 647 00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:22,720 Speaker 3: We can finish each other's sentences because we're connected like that. 648 00:28:23,160 --> 00:28:25,840 Speaker 3: Kaitlyn Clark hasn't been available. She hasn't been exposed to 649 00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:29,679 Speaker 3: the women enough to really confidently say, hey, she deserves 650 00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:32,000 Speaker 3: to be on this team. She hasn't outplayed them. And 651 00:28:32,040 --> 00:28:34,520 Speaker 3: the other point would be, well, who you taking off? 652 00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:38,000 Speaker 3: So Brittany Grounder steps aside. That's one, but some would 653 00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:40,800 Speaker 3: argue there are other people that should be in front 654 00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:42,600 Speaker 3: of the line before Kaitlyn Clark gets there. 655 00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:44,120 Speaker 4: I'm just saying like it's one of the. 656 00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:46,960 Speaker 3: Things I expect her to eventually get there, because we've heard, 657 00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:50,600 Speaker 3: you know, the saying like the squeaky will gets to grease. 658 00:28:50,960 --> 00:28:53,320 Speaker 3: There's been a lot of squeakiness around Kaitlyn Clark. So 659 00:28:53,360 --> 00:28:55,440 Speaker 3: she's going to find her way onto the team. But 660 00:28:55,560 --> 00:28:58,560 Speaker 3: then I will say this, did she earn it? Did 661 00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:00,480 Speaker 3: she really earn the right to be on the team 662 00:29:00,960 --> 00:29:04,000 Speaker 3: or is this a handout situation that many of us 663 00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:04,960 Speaker 3: in America oppose. 664 00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:07,800 Speaker 2: Well, I mean, look, the only people who could have 665 00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:09,920 Speaker 2: suffered by her not being on the team were not playing. 666 00:29:10,160 --> 00:29:12,400 Speaker 2: He's probably NBC because the Rings maybe get a little 667 00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:13,960 Speaker 2: bit of a goose with her on there. They want 668 00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:15,560 Speaker 2: to see her play. Other than that, they did have 669 00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:17,240 Speaker 2: win the gold with or without her. There's no doubt 670 00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:17,960 Speaker 2: in my mind about that. 671 00:29:19,080 --> 00:29:20,240 Speaker 3: Well, I mean, they're good enough to win to go. 672 00:29:20,360 --> 00:29:21,560 Speaker 3: I know, you still got to play it out. You 673 00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:22,560 Speaker 3: never know what could happen. 674 00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:25,160 Speaker 2: I think they will. But you know, we had an 675 00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:26,880 Speaker 2: interesting caller last week saying, you know what, she really 676 00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:28,640 Speaker 2: wants to be on the Olympic team. Let her find 677 00:29:28,640 --> 00:29:31,240 Speaker 2: their ancestry and then maybe play for that country. But 678 00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:33,160 Speaker 2: who knows Steven's with us.

I agree with Nuckie at 741 00:33:02,840 --> 00:33:07,640 Speaker 10: one thousand percent. My only point is that I think 742 00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:09,040 Speaker 10: she's I think she's on the team. 743 00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:12,480 Speaker 11: We've got more girls that are hurt. I think Chelsea 744 00:33:12,520 --> 00:33:15,120 Speaker 11: Gray or one of them who are still going to 745 00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:20,440 Speaker 11: back out. So Christine Brennan of USA Today said the 746 00:33:20,520 --> 00:33:25,040 Speaker 11: reason she's not on the team from the committee. From 747 00:33:26,200 --> 00:33:30,520 Speaker 11: what the committee said is that they were afraid that 748 00:33:30,760 --> 00:33:34,360 Speaker 11: she would be on there like a Christian Ladner and 749 00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:37,160 Speaker 11: then they would sell these jerseys and then when they 750 00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:40,600 Speaker 11: would have to talk about why she was not playing. 751 00:33:40,680 --> 00:33:44,000 Speaker 11: And I think that's I mean, we want to be 752 00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:48,640 Speaker 11: a meritocracy. And then she's handled herself great, and I think, honestly, 753 00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:50,600 Speaker 11: I think Angel Reese has handled herself great. 754 00:33:50,600 --> 00:33:54,640 Speaker 12: I mean, this is like Glarry Bird and Magic Johnson 755 00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:57,040 Speaker 12: all over again. It's not going away anytime soon. I'm 756 00:33:57,040 --> 00:34:00,880 Speaker 12: going to be watching at New Eastern Today on CBS 757 00:34:01,160 --> 00:34:01,960 Speaker 12: I'm gonna be watching. 758 00:34:02,120 --> 00:34:03,680 Speaker 2: I want to see I want to. 759 00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:09,080 Speaker 12: See the rematch. But if we're a meritocracy, then and 760 00:34:09,120 --> 00:34:13,200 Speaker 12: then they're being honest. They're saying that that they don't 761 00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:16,600 Speaker 12: know how to answer that question of you just be honest, 762 00:34:16,680 --> 00:34:19,879 Speaker 12: you just say, Hey, she's a rookie. You know she's 763 00:34:19,880 --> 00:34:22,400 Speaker 12: not gonna be playing on she will play against the 764 00:34:22,520 --> 00:34:25,680 Speaker 12: blowout of like New Zealand or somebody. When we beat 765 00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:28,640 Speaker 12: New Zealand by sixty. Put her out there. I don't 766 00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:32,880 Speaker 12: know the problem. Here's the problem. This is what everybody's 767 00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:36,120 Speaker 12: dancing around, is that the w n b A and 768 00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:39,879 Speaker 12: the USA Basketball they've been subsidized for so long by 769 00:34:39,920 --> 00:34:43,680 Speaker 12: our corporate by our corporate interests. They've lost money. They 770 00:34:43,760 --> 00:34:47,200 Speaker 12: don't know how, they don't know how to make a profit. 771 00:34:48,239 --> 00:34:50,680 Speaker 12: I mean they like, remember the NBA used to market 772 00:34:50,800 --> 00:34:54,120 Speaker 12: Charles Barkley versus Michael Jordan. You need to do that 773 00:34:54,480 --> 00:34:59,640 Speaker 12: right now, right by ironside, every game, every single game, 774 00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:06,040 Speaker 12: the market Brianna Stewart versus dianswer Razzi, go back to 775 00:35:06,080 --> 00:35:10,040 Speaker 12: the nineties, go back to this.

I mean, are you 822 00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:05,120 Speaker 2: an athlete because you eat a lot of hot dogs? 823 00:37:05,160 --> 00:37:09,520 Speaker 2: I don't know. See who knows whatever? Bucky Brooks Andy Furman, 824 00:37:09,719 --> 00:37:12,560 Speaker 2: Father's day, Fox Sports Sunday on Fox Sports Radio. And 825 00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:15,040 Speaker 2: by the way, he has an answer, an answer for 826 00:37:15,160 --> 00:37:21,240 Speaker 2: every single thing. Why ask Bucky? Hey's freaking next? 827 00:37:21,880 --> 00:37:24,800 Speaker 1: Don't listen to Fox Sports Radio Radio. 828 00:37:25,320 --> 00:37:27,640 Speaker 2: Asked Bucky. Right around the corner. Yeah, that's Bucky Brooks. 829 00:37:27,640 --> 00:37:30,319 Speaker 2: I'm Andy Furman. We are Fox Sports Sunday on Fox Sports. 830 00:37:30,400 --> 00:37:32,640 Speaker 2: Ready and we're live from the ti Raq dot Com studios. 831 00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:35,000 Speaker 2: Are we ready? Let's get it going. It's time for 832 00:37:35,040 --> 00:37:37,799 Speaker 2: ask Bucky. Let's do it all right? Question number one? 833 00:37:37,920 --> 00:37:41,000 Speaker 2: Here we go, as a new broadcaster, what advice Bucky 834 00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:42,680 Speaker 2: Brooks would you give to Tom Brady? 835 00:37:44,480 --> 00:37:46,320 Speaker 3: I don't know what advice I could give to him, 836 00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:49,239 Speaker 3: Like he's pretty well versed. I would say, uh, I 837 00:37:49,280 --> 00:37:53,120 Speaker 3: would give him the advice that someone gave me. Stories 838 00:37:53,320 --> 00:37:56,320 Speaker 3: over stats. Don't get so caught up in talking about numbers. 839 00:37:56,360 --> 00:37:57,240 Speaker 4: Give us the story. 840 00:37:57,320 --> 00:37:59,560 Speaker 3: So anytime you have an opportunity to relate something that's 841 00:37:59,560 --> 00:38:02,680 Speaker 3: taking place on the field with an old story. Give 842 00:38:02,760 --> 00:38:05,120 Speaker 3: us the story because it kind of lets us behind 843 00:38:05,160 --> 00:38:07,520 Speaker 3: the curtain. It gives us the insight that we always 844 00:38:07,560 --> 00:38:08,800 Speaker 3: create for former players. 845 00:38:09,120 --> 00:38:11,680 Speaker 2: Sounds great, I'll buy that. Okay, here's a question of 846 00:38:11,719 --> 00:38:14,799 Speaker 2: for good. Why is Aaron Rodgers as a no show 847 00:38:14,840 --> 00:38:18,000 Speaker 2: at mandatory workouts this week with the Jets? Why is 848 00:38:18,040 --> 00:38:20,120 Speaker 2: that such a big deal? Because if it was anybody else, 849 00:38:20,160 --> 00:38:22,000 Speaker 2: it wouldn't be a big deal. If it was in 850 00:38:22,040 --> 00:38:23,920 Speaker 2: Green Bay, it wouldn't be a big deal. But the 851 00:38:23,920 --> 00:38:25,879 Speaker 2: fact that it's the New York media, it's a big deal. 852 00:38:25,920 --> 00:38:27,600 Speaker 2: Why is it such a big deal that he was 853 00:38:27,600 --> 00:38:29,800 Speaker 2: a no show? I'm sure he had a normal excuse. 854 00:38:31,160 --> 00:38:33,000 Speaker 3: It's a big deal because at the beginning of the 855 00:38:33,040 --> 00:38:37,160 Speaker 3: off season Aaron Rodgers talked about the importance of limiting distractions, 856 00:38:37,360 --> 00:38:40,400 Speaker 3: and because Robert Salad made it where it was an 857 00:38:40,520 --> 00:38:43,920 Speaker 3: unexcused absence, the verbiage gave us an opportunity to kind 858 00:38:43,920 --> 00:38:46,239 Speaker 3: of dig into what may appear to be a salacious 859 00:38:46,280 --> 00:38:49,560 Speaker 3: story for Aaron Rodgers not to be their amentatory camp. 860 00:38:49,600 --> 00:38:52,120 Speaker 3: If you're told his team that he wasn't going to 861 00:38:52,160 --> 00:38:53,719 Speaker 3: be there, there would be one thing. But if it 862 00:38:53,760 --> 00:38:55,960 Speaker 3: was truly a situation where they didn't know where he was, 863 00:38:56,120 --> 00:38:57,920 Speaker 3: it'd be a little more concerning. But at the end 864 00:38:57,960 --> 00:39:00,680 Speaker 3: of the day, none of this matters as much as 865 00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:03,520 Speaker 3: we get excited about the offseason. What matters is how 866 00:39:03,520 --> 00:39:06,320 Speaker 3: the Jets play when the time is up. Aaron Rodgers 867 00:39:06,400 --> 00:39:08,239 Speaker 3: has that pressure. We'll see if he lives up to it. 868 00:39:08,760 --> 00:39:11,719 Speaker 2: Good deal, Good deal? Okay, your thoughts on the recently 869 00:39:11,840 --> 00:39:15,320 Speaker 2: passed face of the NBA to silhouette Jerry West. 870 00:39:16,680 --> 00:39:20,120 Speaker 3: I love Jerry West, and for me as a former player, 871 00:39:20,160 --> 00:39:22,400 Speaker 3: what I love about Jerry West is Jerry West is 872 00:39:22,800 --> 00:39:24,920 Speaker 3: one of the not even the pioneers, but kind of 873 00:39:24,960 --> 00:39:29,239 Speaker 3: like the pinnacle in terms of former player turned executive 874 00:39:29,440 --> 00:39:31,920 Speaker 3: in terms of how to do it at a higher level. 875 00:39:32,120 --> 00:39:35,080 Speaker 3: One one championship as a player, but won countless championships 876 00:39:35,120 --> 00:39:37,440 Speaker 3: as an executive. The way that he built teams, the 877 00:39:37,440 --> 00:39:40,800 Speaker 3: way that he identified talent, that is what every player 878 00:39:40,800 --> 00:39:42,800 Speaker 3: who kind of wants to move into the front office, 879 00:39:42,960 --> 00:39:45,439 Speaker 3: that's how they want to operate. I would say he's 880 00:39:45,560 --> 00:39:47,359 Speaker 3: very similar to the way that many of us look 881 00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:50,560 Speaker 3: at Ozzie Newsom in the National Football League. It is 882 00:39:50,680 --> 00:39:53,040 Speaker 3: rare to be a great player that can also parlay 883 00:39:53,080 --> 00:39:55,960 Speaker 3: that success in the championships as an executive. 884 00:39:56,200 --> 00:39:58,760 Speaker 2: All Right, here's a toughie. You ready a tough question 885 00:39:58,840 --> 00:40:01,920 Speaker 2: on Father's Day. Every sport needs or has a villain. 886 00:40:02,239 --> 00:40:05,000 Speaker 2: I'm gonna name the sport. You name the villain in 887 00:40:05,040 --> 00:40:10,320 Speaker 2: that sport? All right, Basketball, Basketball the villain. 888 00:40:11,040 --> 00:40:12,960 Speaker 4: Geez. I don't know who the basketball right now is. 889 00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:15,600 Speaker 3: I think people will kind of villify Carrie Irvins, So 890 00:40:15,680 --> 00:40:16,560 Speaker 3: maybe Carie. 891 00:40:16,400 --> 00:40:16,960 Speaker 4: Is the villain. 892 00:40:17,360 --> 00:40:20,440 Speaker 2: Maybe Lebron, Yeah, yeah, Lebron. 893 00:40:20,480 --> 00:40:21,560 Speaker 4: We'll get some of that too. 894 00:40:22,120 --> 00:40:24,799 Speaker 2: All right, Baseball. I think the problem with baseball they 895 00:40:24,800 --> 00:40:25,560 Speaker 2: don't even have one. 896 00:40:25,719 --> 00:40:26,400 Speaker 4: I don't know. 897 00:40:26,640 --> 00:40:28,400 Speaker 3: I don't even know, Like, I don't even know. I 898 00:40:28,400 --> 00:40:30,480 Speaker 3: can't even think of a big name. Like if you 899 00:40:30,520 --> 00:40:32,560 Speaker 3: ask me the villain, I would still say a Rode, 900 00:40:34,400 --> 00:40:39,120 Speaker 3: the current baseball player that that people absolutely hate. 901 00:40:39,719 --> 00:40:41,560 Speaker 4: I don't have. I don't have a current one like that. 902 00:40:41,800 --> 00:40:43,600 Speaker 2: They be the lock. Yeah, and that may be the 903 00:40:43,680 --> 00:40:46,600 Speaker 2: lack of popularity in the sport of baseball really, although 904 00:40:46,640 --> 00:40:48,759 Speaker 2: you know, people will deny that it's not popular. But 905 00:40:48,840 --> 00:40:55,000 Speaker 2: I think that sports need a villain. Okay, Football, Mmm, 906 00:40:56,400 --> 00:40:57,160 Speaker 2: who is the villain? 907 00:40:57,160 --> 00:40:58,120 Speaker 4: Football? I think? 908 00:40:58,680 --> 00:41:01,239 Speaker 3: I mean, now, people love Pat mahonmes. But I think 909 00:41:01,239 --> 00:41:03,880 Speaker 3: they're growing tired of Pat mahomes Y's talk about the 910 00:41:03,880 --> 00:41:05,759 Speaker 3: whole KNSA City Chiefs. Because of the Taylor Swift thing, 911 00:41:06,040 --> 00:41:07,080 Speaker 3: they become the Vildens. 912 00:41:07,160 --> 00:41:09,359 Speaker 2: Yeah, could very well be it. I'm trying to think 913 00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:10,880 Speaker 2: of a villain of football. I mean, is there a 914 00:41:10,960 --> 00:41:12,040 Speaker 2: quarterback that's a villain? 915 00:41:12,040 --> 00:41:12,320 Speaker 4: Maybe? 916 00:41:12,360 --> 00:41:14,480 Speaker 2: I don't know. We'll continue the all right, Bucky Brooks, 917 00:41:14,520 --> 00:41:16,880 Speaker 2: Andy Furman.

I want to roll it 938 00:42:09,800 --> 00:42:11,760 Speaker 2: by it because I thought it would be an interesting one. 939 00:42:11,920 --> 00:42:14,120 Speaker 2: I turned the TV on now and I'm watching like 940 00:42:14,239 --> 00:42:19,920 Speaker 2: all these crazy sports. I see cornhole on TV, cornhole tournaments. Okay, 941 00:42:20,080 --> 00:42:21,800 Speaker 2: so I'm going to ask you the next big sport 942 00:42:21,880 --> 00:42:26,040 Speaker 2: to gain popularity on television and maybe even with the league. 943 00:42:26,120 --> 00:42:31,320 Speaker 2: I'll give you some choices. Cricket, picketball, pickleball, or women's 944 00:42:31,360 --> 00:42:33,400 Speaker 2: flag football. Will there be Well, I think there is 945 00:42:33,440 --> 00:42:35,520 Speaker 2: a league right now women's flag football. Maybe I'm wrong. 946 00:42:35,560 --> 00:42:39,680 Speaker 4: I don't know. I would bet on women's flag football hard, really, 947 00:42:39,719 --> 00:42:40,200 Speaker 4: I would. 948 00:42:40,040 --> 00:42:41,920 Speaker 3: Go yeah, I would go hard on that, just because 949 00:42:41,960 --> 00:42:45,239 Speaker 3: when you think at the lord levels out here in California, 950 00:42:45,680 --> 00:42:50,480 Speaker 3: girls flag football is like man, it's hot, is popular, 951 00:42:50,560 --> 00:42:53,440 Speaker 3: it's popular. It's really going to just sanction as a 952 00:42:53,520 --> 00:42:57,719 Speaker 3: championship level sport. I think you will see more flag 953 00:42:58,360 --> 00:43:02,400 Speaker 3: becoming part of the mainstream when it comes to our entertainment. 954 00:43:03,080 --> 00:43:05,040 Speaker 2: I think there's gonna be a big time league on that. 955 00:43:05,080 --> 00:43:07,080 Speaker 2: I think it's gonna be on television and more than that, 956 00:43:07,360 --> 00:43:09,600 Speaker 2: New York City high schools because I do some high 957 00:43:09,600 --> 00:43:13,000 Speaker 2: school sports writing for the Brooklyn Daily Eagle and the 958 00:43:13,040 --> 00:43:16,480 Speaker 2: New York City's the Public School Athletically PSAL. They have 959 00:43:16,520 --> 00:43:18,920 Speaker 2: flag football teams in New York City on the high 960 00:43:18,960 --> 00:43:23,040 Speaker 2: school level, and moreover, the New York Jets have supported 961 00:43:23,080 --> 00:43:25,920 Speaker 2: that in New York City. They bought the equipment for 962 00:43:26,040 --> 00:43:27,680 Speaker 2: many of the high schools in New York City. So 963 00:43:27,719 --> 00:43:30,000 Speaker 2: I think you're right, you're onto something with that flag 964 00:43:30,000 --> 00:43:32,880 Speaker 2: football for girls and women. So it's gonna be the 965 00:43:32,880 --> 00:43:34,680 Speaker 2: next big sport. There's going to be a league in 966 00:43:34,680 --> 00:43:37,000 Speaker 2: it too. I'm sure it's going to happen. Oh wait, 967 00:43:37,040 --> 00:43:39,040 Speaker 2: we move on, by the way, Yeah, go ahead. 968 00:43:38,760 --> 00:43:41,000 Speaker 4: I'm sorry. You can see it. 969 00:43:41,040 --> 00:43:43,319 Speaker 3: Because also the NFL is so behind it, because what 970 00:43:43,360 --> 00:43:45,879 Speaker 3: it does is expands the fan base. You know, when 971 00:43:45,880 --> 00:43:49,120 Speaker 3: you now have opportunities and for women to play. Well, 972 00:43:49,200 --> 00:43:52,479 Speaker 3: now it's easier to sell jerseys to young ladies because 973 00:43:52,480 --> 00:43:55,160 Speaker 3: they can follow the sport because there's still is something 974 00:43:55,200 --> 00:43:57,279 Speaker 3: for them down the line before there was nothing. Then 975 00:43:57,320 --> 00:44:01,359 Speaker 3: you give them a tangible opportunity because they've created opportunities 976 00:44:01,400 --> 00:44:05,399 Speaker 3: at the NIA in AIA level for women to get 977 00:44:05,440 --> 00:44:07,960 Speaker 3: scholarships playing flag football. Yeah, I think it continues to 978 00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:08,720 Speaker 3: grow and expand. 979 00:44:09,080 --> 00:44:11,080 Speaker 2: There you go, and before we get into the National 980 00:44:11,080 --> 00:44:15,080 Speaker 2: Football League, because I have a whole list of teams 981 00:44:15,080 --> 00:44:18,040 Speaker 2: that have really done well in June. Of course, everybody 982 00:44:18,040 --> 00:44:20,240 Speaker 2: wins in June, as I said, But Randy's on the phone. 983 00:44:20,400 --> 00:44:22,440 Speaker 2: Randy from Florida wants to talk to Buckie Brooks and 984 00:44:22,480 --> 00:44:25,200 Speaker 2: Fox Bus Radio. Good morning, Randy, Happy Father's Day. 985 00:44:25,560 --> 00:44:27,960 Speaker 13: More than gentlemen, Happy Father's Day. Happy Father's Day. Hey, 986 00:44:28,000 --> 00:44:30,160 Speaker 13: I want to compare in contrast something with you guys. 987 00:44:30,320 --> 00:44:33,680 Speaker 13: I was still living up in Gainesville during the Tebow era, 988 00:44:34,280 --> 00:44:36,600 Speaker 13: and for me that was overwhelming. I don't know how 989 00:44:36,600 --> 00:44:39,400 Speaker 13: that kid got through it. But looking at Caitlyn Clark, 990 00:44:39,840 --> 00:44:43,000 Speaker 13: I mean her fans and I will love her. There's 991 00:44:43,000 --> 00:44:45,759 Speaker 13: a little controversy going on in the WNBA. If she 992 00:44:45,960 --> 00:44:48,160 Speaker 13: just said, you know, this is not for me, maybe 993 00:44:48,200 --> 00:44:49,839 Speaker 13: I'll go back to Iowa and open up a youth 994 00:44:49,880 --> 00:44:53,640 Speaker 13: can't keeping with girls basketball. Something like that just walked away. 995 00:44:54,080 --> 00:44:55,560 Speaker 13: How often do something like that happened. 996 00:44:57,920 --> 00:44:59,720 Speaker 4: It's a great comparison to Tim Tebow. 997 00:45:00,920 --> 00:45:04,400 Speaker 3: I do believe the phenomenon is very similar, and like 998 00:45:04,520 --> 00:45:06,960 Speaker 3: the initial response to the Olympic team is very similar 999 00:45:06,960 --> 00:45:09,840 Speaker 3: to some teams electing not to sign Tim Tembo, not 1000 00:45:09,880 --> 00:45:12,320 Speaker 3: because of him personally, but because of the fandom, the 1001 00:45:12,400 --> 00:45:14,919 Speaker 3: zealous they kind of follow behind him. With Caitlin Clark, 1002 00:45:14,960 --> 00:45:17,480 Speaker 3: I think it would be unusual to see her walk 1003 00:45:17,520 --> 00:45:21,360 Speaker 3: away because she's making so much money from sponsorship and 1004 00:45:21,440 --> 00:45:24,560 Speaker 3: marketing opportunities. We talk about the Nike deal that she has. 1005 00:45:24,840 --> 00:45:29,279 Speaker 3: She just signed a deal with Wilson Basketballs. Look, it's 1006 00:45:29,280 --> 00:45:31,759 Speaker 3: in her best interest, even if she doesn't like all that, 1007 00:45:31,840 --> 00:45:34,040 Speaker 3: to continue to stay with the w NBA as a 1008 00:45:34,040 --> 00:45:35,080 Speaker 3: hobby because it. 1009 00:45:35,040 --> 00:45:36,879 Speaker 4: Leads to so many other things for her. 1010 00:45:37,200 --> 00:45:39,719 Speaker 3: I don't think she'll walk away to start camps in Iowa, 1011 00:45:39,800 --> 00:45:41,720 Speaker 3: but I do think she'll be active in the community 1012 00:45:41,760 --> 00:45:43,120 Speaker 3: because it only benefits her brand. 1013 00:45:43,800 --> 00:45:45,920 Speaker 2: Good question, It really is a good question. Okay, now 1014 00:45:45,920 --> 00:45:48,040 Speaker 2: we roll along to the National Football League. You're bread 1015 00:45:48,040 --> 00:45:50,560 Speaker 2: and butter. That's what you do. Basically, you played in 1016 00:45:50,560 --> 00:45:52,799 Speaker 2: the league. You know everything about it. You're scout in 1017 00:45:52,800 --> 00:45:54,759 Speaker 2: the league. You work for teams. So here we go. 1018 00:45:55,040 --> 00:45:58,759 Speaker 2: I got a list alphabetically from Arizona to Washington, and 1019 00:45:58,800 --> 00:46:01,640 Speaker 2: I say every team is improved, and every team is 1020 00:46:01,680 --> 00:46:03,919 Speaker 2: a winner in June. That's why fans go crazy because 1021 00:46:03,920 --> 00:46:05,640 Speaker 2: they think the team has a change. Some teams I 1022 00:46:05,640 --> 00:46:08,440 Speaker 2: don't think they do. I'm gonna start with Arizona and 1023 00:46:08,520 --> 00:46:10,160 Speaker 2: I'm going to throw a couple of things out there. 1024 00:46:10,160 --> 00:46:12,400 Speaker 2: You tell me if I'm crazy or not, and you 1025 00:46:12,440 --> 00:46:15,239 Speaker 2: tell me if we're on the right track. I say 1026 00:46:15,280 --> 00:46:19,279 Speaker 2: Arizona improved because they got they signed the first round 1027 00:46:19,320 --> 00:46:22,840 Speaker 2: pick Jorda Williams from the Cincinnati Bengals. He's a starting tackle. 1028 00:46:22,840 --> 00:46:25,120 Speaker 2: I think it's going to help them, and they got 1029 00:46:25,200 --> 00:46:27,600 Speaker 2: him at a pretty reasonable rate fifteen million a year. 1030 00:46:27,760 --> 00:46:29,680 Speaker 2: I know it sounds stupid, but that's a pretty good rate. 1031 00:46:29,760 --> 00:46:30,160 Speaker 4: I thought. 1032 00:46:31,480 --> 00:46:34,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, look, they're improved. The team is improved. 1033 00:46:34,800 --> 00:46:36,759 Speaker 3: They're gonna be improved because the quarterback is going to 1034 00:46:36,800 --> 00:46:40,080 Speaker 3: be better one year further removed from injury. Yeah, this 1035 00:46:40,120 --> 00:46:42,440 Speaker 3: team is improved. You can see the identity that they're 1036 00:46:42,480 --> 00:46:45,239 Speaker 3: having on the Monte Austin Fort and Jonathan Annit. So 1037 00:46:45,280 --> 00:46:48,080 Speaker 3: I agree with you, there's still a very improved squad. 1038 00:46:48,440 --> 00:46:50,719 Speaker 2: Okay. And also they got to receive a Marvin Harrison junior. 1039 00:46:50,760 --> 00:46:53,080 Speaker 2: That's gonna help a lot too, So we move on. 1040 00:46:53,160 --> 00:46:55,000 Speaker 4: So it certainly he gives them a lary for his 1041 00:46:55,040 --> 00:46:55,920 Speaker 4: gero type presence. 1042 00:46:56,320 --> 00:46:58,920 Speaker 2: Okay. So if you're an Arizona Cardinal Finn, you should 1043 00:46:58,920 --> 00:47:02,680 Speaker 2: feel great right now to the Atlanta Falcons and you look, 1044 00:47:02,960 --> 00:47:05,800 Speaker 2: the eighth pick in the draft, they got Michael Pennox 1045 00:47:05,840 --> 00:47:08,920 Speaker 2: junior's quarterback, and I guess that was a no brainer, 1046 00:47:09,200 --> 00:47:12,400 Speaker 2: but that was weeks after they spent millions upon millions 1047 00:47:12,440 --> 00:47:16,760 Speaker 2: of dollars on Kirk Cousins. Look, I think they upgraded 1048 00:47:16,760 --> 00:47:19,120 Speaker 2: the position, which is great. I don't know who's going 1049 00:47:19,200 --> 00:47:21,120 Speaker 2: to be the starting quarterback right now. I would think 1050 00:47:21,200 --> 00:47:23,960 Speaker 2: Kirk Cousins, but again he's coming off that ACL. But 1051 00:47:24,040 --> 00:47:25,919 Speaker 2: I think the Atlanta Falcons are in pretty good shape, 1052 00:47:25,920 --> 00:47:28,040 Speaker 2: better shape now than they were last June. 1053 00:47:28,880 --> 00:47:31,600 Speaker 4: I agree with you, Dan, better shape because of the quarterback. 1054 00:47:32,040 --> 00:47:34,799 Speaker 3: People have talked about this team offensively for years, the 1055 00:47:34,840 --> 00:47:38,320 Speaker 3: weapons that they've accumulated kal Pitz, Drake Lund, John Robinson, 1056 00:47:38,360 --> 00:47:41,280 Speaker 3: they add Darnelle Moody to the equation. They have talent, 1057 00:47:41,840 --> 00:47:44,200 Speaker 3: but they needed a distributor, they needed a point guard, when. 1058 00:47:44,120 --> 00:47:44,719 Speaker 4: Now they have two. 1059 00:47:45,400 --> 00:47:48,719 Speaker 3: They have Kirk Cousins, who's the old vet, the steady hand, 1060 00:47:48,719 --> 00:47:50,160 Speaker 3: who should be able to kind of get the ball 1061 00:47:50,200 --> 00:47:52,879 Speaker 3: to the perimeter. He's coming off an Achilles injury, so 1062 00:47:53,880 --> 00:47:56,600 Speaker 3: you wonder how long can he how long will it 1063 00:47:56,640 --> 00:47:57,920 Speaker 3: take for him to get back to the level that 1064 00:47:57,960 --> 00:48:00,520 Speaker 3: we've seen him play at, particularly down in minnesot And 1065 00:48:00,520 --> 00:48:03,640 Speaker 3: then Michael Pennix Junior, who was eighth overall pick someone 1066 00:48:03,680 --> 00:48:07,600 Speaker 3: they feel has special talents and qualities. Can you keep 1067 00:48:07,680 --> 00:48:10,000 Speaker 3: him on the sideline for two seasons while Kirk Cousins 1068 00:48:10,040 --> 00:48:12,160 Speaker 3: is running the team. I would say it's a good 1069 00:48:12,200 --> 00:48:14,680 Speaker 3: problem to have, even though it's a very expensive problem 1070 00:48:14,719 --> 00:48:14,960 Speaker 3: to have. 1071 00:48:15,640 --> 00:48:17,680 Speaker 2: Right, So, if you're a Falcons fan, you should feel 1072 00:48:17,680 --> 00:48:20,120 Speaker 2: pretty good, at least in the month of June. All right, 1073 00:48:20,280 --> 00:48:22,600 Speaker 2: let's move to the Baltimore Ravens, and people will say, 1074 00:48:22,640 --> 00:48:25,399 Speaker 2: you know what, they were crazy to sign a thirty 1075 00:48:25,520 --> 00:48:28,719 Speaker 2: year old running back and Derrick Henry. However, I pulled 1076 00:48:28,760 --> 00:48:30,319 Speaker 2: that back a little bit because they got him a 1077 00:48:30,320 --> 00:48:33,040 Speaker 2: free agency for only eight million dollars a year, and 1078 00:48:33,080 --> 00:48:36,200 Speaker 2: I think that right now when they get him, they 1079 00:48:36,200 --> 00:48:38,479 Speaker 2: didn't get it just because of his name. I think 1080 00:48:38,560 --> 00:48:41,160 Speaker 2: that they want to have more of a commitment to 1081 00:48:41,200 --> 00:48:43,560 Speaker 2: the run game because when they were in the playoffs 1082 00:48:43,640 --> 00:48:45,560 Speaker 2: last year, that hurt him. So I think they're in 1083 00:48:45,600 --> 00:48:47,640 Speaker 2: pretty good shape. They're not going to use him. I 1084 00:48:47,640 --> 00:48:50,040 Speaker 2: don't think in Baltimore as they did in Tennessee. He 1085 00:48:50,120 --> 00:48:52,440 Speaker 2: was like seventy percent of the offense in Tennessee. But 1086 00:48:52,520 --> 00:48:55,360 Speaker 2: to have a guy like that, there's still some treads 1087 00:48:55,360 --> 00:48:57,879 Speaker 2: on that tire and for only eight million dollars a year, 1088 00:48:57,960 --> 00:48:59,080 Speaker 2: I think it's a pretty good deal. 1089 00:49:00,560 --> 00:49:03,319 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it's a pretty good deal. I am 1090 00:49:03,600 --> 00:49:05,799 Speaker 3: putting an abstist buy it because I'm waiting to see 1091 00:49:05,800 --> 00:49:08,040 Speaker 3: how this plays out. If you told me that Derrick 1092 00:49:08,120 --> 00:49:10,360 Speaker 3: Henry was coming over to the Ravens and they were 1093 00:49:10,400 --> 00:49:13,160 Speaker 3: running the old offense under Greg Roman, I'll be really 1094 00:49:13,160 --> 00:49:15,000 Speaker 3: excited about it because I know it's gonna be smash 1095 00:49:15,080 --> 00:49:18,680 Speaker 3: mouth power based in those things with Todd Munkin. I 1096 00:49:18,760 --> 00:49:20,879 Speaker 3: just still need to see how this plays out. Last 1097 00:49:20,920 --> 00:49:22,880 Speaker 3: year we saw them kind of flip the script that 1098 00:49:23,040 --> 00:49:24,680 Speaker 3: kind of throw it around the yard. They want to 1099 00:49:24,680 --> 00:49:29,759 Speaker 3: show different parts of Lamar Jackson's game. Derrick Henry kind 1100 00:49:29,760 --> 00:49:33,640 Speaker 3: of puts them back in the old mold, and I 1101 00:49:33,719 --> 00:49:35,640 Speaker 3: just need to see how it fits with the spread 1102 00:49:35,719 --> 00:49:38,560 Speaker 3: mentality that they've created. Derrick Henry is still a good player, 1103 00:49:38,560 --> 00:49:42,160 Speaker 3: two time Russian champ, and the dilemma that it creates 1104 00:49:42,200 --> 00:49:44,920 Speaker 3: having him beside Lamar Jackson is tough on the defense. 1105 00:49:45,440 --> 00:49:48,040 Speaker 4: How does Todd Munkin put it together? Though? 1106 00:49:48,719 --> 00:49:51,960 Speaker 2: Interesting? Okay, But I gotta move to the Buffalo Bills 1107 00:49:51,960 --> 00:49:54,120 Speaker 2: because this is the one team when I looked at it, 1108 00:49:54,560 --> 00:49:56,759 Speaker 2: I think they need be worse. And I hate to 1109 00:49:56,800 --> 00:49:58,319 Speaker 2: say this to Bills fans, but I think they may 1110 00:49:58,400 --> 00:50:00,920 Speaker 2: be worse on paper at least receive a position that 1111 00:50:00,920 --> 00:50:03,400 Speaker 2: they were a year ago. Of course, they traded Stefan Diggs, 1112 00:50:03,400 --> 00:50:07,480 Speaker 2: but I think right now it might be a welcome 1113 00:50:07,560 --> 00:50:11,000 Speaker 2: situation as far as what they change the culture of 1114 00:50:11,040 --> 00:50:12,600 Speaker 2: that team. And I hate to use that word, but 1115 00:50:12,880 --> 00:50:15,600 Speaker 2: I think there was a problem there with Stefan Diggs, 1116 00:50:15,600 --> 00:50:20,240 Speaker 2: not as a player, but I think just and irritating presence, 1117 00:50:20,280 --> 00:50:22,640 Speaker 2: if you will, in the locker room. Maybe I'm wrong, Buck, 1118 00:50:22,800 --> 00:50:26,160 Speaker 2: but I think that yes, on paper, they're worse receiver, 1119 00:50:26,480 --> 00:50:28,920 Speaker 2: But overall they may be better off without him. 1120 00:50:29,840 --> 00:50:31,520 Speaker 4: I won't say that they're better off without him. 1121 00:50:31,760 --> 00:50:35,960 Speaker 3: I think like most teams in the nation, Folloall League level, 1122 00:50:36,000 --> 00:50:39,680 Speaker 3: they have a few strong personalities, a few big personalities 1123 00:50:39,680 --> 00:50:41,840 Speaker 3: that you have to deal with, and you can tolerate 1124 00:50:41,880 --> 00:50:42,640 Speaker 3: them as long as. 1125 00:50:42,520 --> 00:50:43,960 Speaker 4: The production and the talent is there. 1126 00:50:44,560 --> 00:50:46,799 Speaker 3: For all the things that Stefan Diggs might have been 1127 00:50:46,840 --> 00:50:49,919 Speaker 3: as a distraction, there's no doubt that he elevated Josh Allen. 1128 00:50:50,040 --> 00:50:52,440 Speaker 3: Just look at the numbers Josh Allen before him and 1129 00:50:52,520 --> 00:50:56,080 Speaker 3: after him. Now you're trying to replace that, and I 1130 00:50:56,080 --> 00:50:58,200 Speaker 3: don't know who on their roster can replace what. 1131 00:50:58,200 --> 00:50:59,879 Speaker 4: Stefan Diggs was giving them. 1132 00:51:00,600 --> 00:51:02,680 Speaker 3: They were able to kind of I want to get 1133 00:51:02,680 --> 00:51:05,080 Speaker 3: away with it in a way with Stephan Diggs playing 1134 00:51:05,120 --> 00:51:07,480 Speaker 3: in a diminished role, but without him on the field, 1135 00:51:07,480 --> 00:51:09,920 Speaker 3: who's their number one receiver. They're gonna talk about going 1136 00:51:09,920 --> 00:51:12,319 Speaker 3: to twelve personnel, two tight ends on the field and 1137 00:51:12,400 --> 00:51:14,479 Speaker 3: doing those things. But when I look at this team 1138 00:51:14,520 --> 00:51:17,040 Speaker 3: right now, there's no one on offense that I'm scared 1139 00:51:17,080 --> 00:51:20,399 Speaker 3: of outside of Josh Allen. And it's a dangerous thing. 1140 00:51:20,440 --> 00:51:22,759 Speaker 3: And what they're banking on is he can do Pat 1141 00:51:22,800 --> 00:51:27,560 Speaker 3: Mahomes type stuff. Pat Mahomes elevated the offense without Tybreek Hill. 1142 00:51:28,440 --> 00:51:30,919 Speaker 3: Let's see if Josh Allen is the player that many 1143 00:51:30,960 --> 00:51:33,080 Speaker 3: of us has touted him to be in terms of 1144 00:51:33,120 --> 00:51:36,800 Speaker 3: being on par or in the same conversation as Pat Mahomes, 1145 00:51:36,840 --> 00:51:39,319 Speaker 3: because he has to elevate a look a squad, a 1146 00:51:39,400 --> 00:51:41,040 Speaker 3: unit that doesn't have a true number one. 1147 00:51:41,400 --> 00:51:43,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, and look, a lot of people are gonna say that, 1148 00:51:43,239 --> 00:51:46,239 Speaker 2: you know, Josh Allen made Stefan Diggs. That's not true. 1149 00:51:46,280 --> 00:51:49,600 Speaker 2: Stefan Dicks really helped Josh Allen. Maybe the stomachs that 1150 00:51:49,680 --> 00:51:52,680 Speaker 2: made him. We'll see if Josh Allen could make a 1151 00:51:52,800 --> 00:51:55,120 Speaker 2: receiver that's the key. Can he make one? 1152 00:51:55,440 --> 00:51:58,520 Speaker 3: We'll see, Yeah, I mean, can't he make Kenny elevated man? 1153 00:51:58,560 --> 00:52:00,399 Speaker 3: So it's gonna be on him to be a more 1154 00:52:00,440 --> 00:52:04,960 Speaker 3: accurate playmaker. Remember Stefan Diggs helped Josh Allen become a 1155 00:52:04,960 --> 00:52:07,359 Speaker 3: more accurate passive. Remember he entered the league not having 1156 00:52:07,480 --> 00:52:10,080 Speaker 3: thrown over sixty complete and over sixty percent of his passes. 1157 00:52:10,800 --> 00:52:14,840 Speaker 3: So he's been woefully inaccurate throughout his lifetime his career 1158 00:52:15,160 --> 00:52:18,680 Speaker 3: as a player. Without that, can those other guys expand 1159 00:52:18,719 --> 00:52:20,480 Speaker 3: the strikes on and make it easy for him to 1160 00:52:20,840 --> 00:52:21,920 Speaker 3: register completions. 1161 00:52:22,000 --> 00:52:24,480 Speaker 2: All right, let's talk about the Carolina Panthers. Carolina fans. 1162 00:52:24,480 --> 00:52:27,280 Speaker 2: I know he had a miserable year, but it's June. 1163 00:52:27,400 --> 00:52:29,600 Speaker 2: You should be happy. And maybe there is an upside 1164 00:52:29,640 --> 00:52:32,080 Speaker 2: right here. And I'm looking at Deontay Johnson, the receiver 1165 00:52:32,160 --> 00:52:35,239 Speaker 2: they got from the Pittsburgh Steelers two years ago. This 1166 00:52:35,320 --> 00:52:38,319 Speaker 2: kid who's going to be twenty eight in July, he 1167 00:52:38,400 --> 00:52:42,439 Speaker 2: had over eleven hundred yards receiving. Can he come back 1168 00:52:42,480 --> 00:52:44,480 Speaker 2: and do that? And basically they got him almost for 1169 00:52:44,520 --> 00:52:47,239 Speaker 2: nothing from the Steelers. So Deontay Johnson could be a 1170 00:52:47,320 --> 00:52:49,799 Speaker 2: start to help their offense. Maybe I'm wrong, but I'm 1171 00:52:49,840 --> 00:52:52,279 Speaker 2: looking at the positive. I'm looking to help all the 1172 00:52:52,280 --> 00:52:54,759 Speaker 2: fans out there, for all the teams. Maybe Johnson's the 1173 00:52:54,760 --> 00:52:57,040 Speaker 2: guy to get Carolina on the right path. 1174 00:52:58,280 --> 00:52:59,040 Speaker 4: He's a good player. 1175 00:52:59,120 --> 00:53:02,880 Speaker 3: I'm not confident vastly improved team. We'll see David Canalis, 1176 00:53:02,880 --> 00:53:06,560 Speaker 3: first time head coach taken over. It was a mess 1177 00:53:06,640 --> 00:53:10,080 Speaker 3: last year in Carolina. At least they appear to kind 1178 00:53:10,080 --> 00:53:13,319 Speaker 3: of be there's some synergy, some alignment in terms of 1179 00:53:13,440 --> 00:53:17,359 Speaker 3: the general manager, head coach, quarterback and what they want 1180 00:53:17,440 --> 00:53:21,040 Speaker 3: to do, but it's hard to make that play out 1181 00:53:21,320 --> 00:53:24,319 Speaker 3: on the field. Deontay Johnson teams with Adam DeLand to 1182 00:53:24,400 --> 00:53:27,359 Speaker 3: give them some support. Jonathan Mingo, the receiver that they 1183 00:53:27,360 --> 00:53:29,799 Speaker 3: were drafted last year, will also have a role, but 1184 00:53:29,880 --> 00:53:33,799 Speaker 3: a lot of it is on Bryce Young. How how 1185 00:53:33,840 --> 00:53:35,719 Speaker 3: big is the improvement from year one to year two 1186 00:53:35,800 --> 00:53:36,439 Speaker 3: for Bryce Young? 1187 00:53:36,719 --> 00:53:38,640 Speaker 4: If you improved, then everything will go away. 1188 00:53:38,640 --> 00:53:40,560 Speaker 3: But a lot of his own Dave Canalis being able 1189 00:53:40,600 --> 00:53:42,200 Speaker 3: to get Bryce Young up and going and playing at 1190 00:53:42,239 --> 00:53:42,839 Speaker 3: a better level. 1191 00:53:43,080 --> 00:53:45,720 Speaker 2: All right, Chicago Bears. I mean, if I'm a critic 1192 00:53:45,960 --> 00:53:49,600 Speaker 2: of the Chicago Bears, they drafted Caleb Williams and I 1193 00:53:49,600 --> 00:53:51,880 Speaker 2: would have liked to see them beef up that offensive 1194 00:53:51,920 --> 00:53:54,200 Speaker 2: line to protect them, but instead they went to get 1195 00:53:54,239 --> 00:53:57,360 Speaker 2: some targets for him in Keenan Allen and the Romeo 1196 00:53:57,440 --> 00:54:01,120 Speaker 2: Doonza in the draft. I guess that's the key. You 1197 00:54:01,160 --> 00:54:04,120 Speaker 2: want to get Kayla Williams some targets. But again, I 1198 00:54:04,160 --> 00:54:06,440 Speaker 2: think the offensive line would have been a better situation. 1199 00:54:06,520 --> 00:54:09,360 Speaker 2: But I think that things will shape out for Chicago. 1200 00:54:09,400 --> 00:54:10,000 Speaker 2: What do you think? 1201 00:54:11,200 --> 00:54:14,680 Speaker 3: They're talented and they're ready to go. They have veterans 1202 00:54:14,680 --> 00:54:16,160 Speaker 3: in place, and I think it's really important to make 1203 00:54:16,200 --> 00:54:16,760 Speaker 3: that distinction. 1204 00:54:17,239 --> 00:54:18,880 Speaker 4: What the Bears have done is they've. 1205 00:54:18,719 --> 00:54:22,200 Speaker 3: Surrounded your young quarterback with veteran guys who've played. What 1206 00:54:22,239 --> 00:54:24,680 Speaker 3: that leads to is better trust between the young guy 1207 00:54:24,719 --> 00:54:26,440 Speaker 3: throwing the ball to where the ball should be thrown 1208 00:54:26,680 --> 00:54:28,400 Speaker 3: and trusting that the veterans are going to be on 1209 00:54:28,440 --> 00:54:30,839 Speaker 3: those spots. When you have young guys, it's a little 1210 00:54:30,880 --> 00:54:32,400 Speaker 3: more volatile because it's inconsistent. 1211 00:54:32,440 --> 00:54:33,480 Speaker 4: They kind of do their own thing. 1212 00:54:33,719 --> 00:54:36,560 Speaker 3: They don't really have that outside of Roma Dunz, who 1213 00:54:36,640 --> 00:54:39,200 Speaker 3: is a high IQ player. So they're good. It's just 1214 00:54:39,239 --> 00:54:41,120 Speaker 3: about the protection up front. If they can protect them, 1215 00:54:41,160 --> 00:54:43,040 Speaker 3: they can run the football. He should be set up 1216 00:54:43,080 --> 00:54:46,000 Speaker 3: for success. I wouldn't expect these numbers that have been 1217 00:54:46,000 --> 00:54:48,520 Speaker 3: thrown out forty five hundred yards and that's of I 1218 00:54:48,560 --> 00:54:50,799 Speaker 3: think he can be good if he hits set that 1219 00:54:50,960 --> 00:54:54,920 Speaker 3: thirty eight to four thousand mark. The Chicago Bears are 1220 00:54:54,960 --> 00:54:56,640 Speaker 3: in the money when it comes to what their offense 1221 00:54:56,680 --> 00:54:58,879 Speaker 3: looks like, and defensively, Matt Eberfliss has done a really 1222 00:54:58,880 --> 00:55:01,960 Speaker 3: good job of getting them on the on the right path. 1223 00:55:02,560 --> 00:55:05,560 Speaker 2: Okay, I told about the Cincinnati bell Sinnati Bengals. You know, 1224 00:55:05,800 --> 00:55:08,080 Speaker 2: obviously the big question mark is Joe Burrow. Will he 1225 00:55:08,120 --> 00:55:10,919 Speaker 2: be back, will he be healthy? The guy's somewhat injury prone. 1226 00:55:10,920 --> 00:55:12,840 Speaker 2: I hope he does well. The risk seems to be 1227 00:55:12,880 --> 00:55:15,480 Speaker 2: okay right now. But I think the one Achilles heel 1228 00:55:15,520 --> 00:55:18,160 Speaker 2: this team had last year was the defense and the 1229 00:55:18,200 --> 00:55:22,040 Speaker 2: defensive safety situation. So getting Von Bell back at safety, 1230 00:55:22,160 --> 00:55:24,040 Speaker 2: I think it's a pretty good deal. And I looked 1231 00:55:24,080 --> 00:55:25,959 Speaker 2: up and they said he only the Bengals only paid 1232 00:55:26,000 --> 00:55:28,600 Speaker 2: one point two million for the guy, because the Carolina 1233 00:55:28,640 --> 00:55:30,560 Speaker 2: Panthers are paying the rest of the six million dollars 1234 00:55:30,560 --> 00:55:32,200 Speaker 2: for Bell. So I think it's a pretty good deal. 1235 00:55:32,200 --> 00:55:33,799 Speaker 2: They get him back, they're not paying much. 1236 00:55:34,760 --> 00:55:37,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, that was a huge deal what the Bengals did. 1237 00:55:37,120 --> 00:55:40,399 Speaker 3: And here's the thing that drives me crazy. They let 1238 00:55:40,440 --> 00:55:43,880 Speaker 3: two of their tough safeties go a year ago. When 1239 00:55:43,880 --> 00:55:46,000 Speaker 3: they let Jesse Bass go and Von Bell go at 1240 00:55:46,040 --> 00:55:47,879 Speaker 3: the same time, they were banking on young players being 1241 00:55:47,880 --> 00:55:49,160 Speaker 3: able to step into those roles. 1242 00:55:49,320 --> 00:55:50,120 Speaker 4: It didn't work out. 1243 00:55:50,160 --> 00:55:53,520 Speaker 3: They moved Dax Hill outside to cornerback now away from 1244 00:55:53,560 --> 00:55:56,600 Speaker 3: the safety nickel position. Von Bell comes in to give 1245 00:55:56,640 --> 00:55:58,359 Speaker 3: him that steady presence in the back end. 1246 00:55:58,440 --> 00:56:01,080 Speaker 4: And what is needed. They needed another what. 1247 00:56:01,040 --> 00:56:03,480 Speaker 3: We call traffic cops, someone that could direct all the players, 1248 00:56:03,520 --> 00:56:05,319 Speaker 3: get him on the same page, make the calls, make 1249 00:56:05,360 --> 00:56:09,239 Speaker 3: sure everyone is in alignment on defense. Fine Bell comes 1250 00:56:09,239 --> 00:56:11,480 Speaker 3: back and get him. As a result, I don't think 1251 00:56:11,480 --> 00:56:14,399 Speaker 3: you will see as many busts and blown coverages as 1252 00:56:14,440 --> 00:56:17,560 Speaker 3: you saw in previous years. And lou and Aromo is 1253 00:56:18,040 --> 00:56:22,759 Speaker 3: underrated as a defensive coordinator. Now with the veteran kind 1254 00:56:22,800 --> 00:56:26,640 Speaker 3: of directing things at the third level, I think you 1255 00:56:26,680 --> 00:56:28,320 Speaker 3: see that defense kind of get back on track. 1256 00:56:28,760 --> 00:56:32,200 Speaker 2: Good glad to hear that. Or Cleveland Browns bringing back 1257 00:56:32,320 --> 00:56:35,600 Speaker 2: Zadarius Smith the defensive ends a pretty good deal. I 1258 00:56:35,680 --> 00:56:37,680 Speaker 2: guess it was like a loaner last year, and I 1259 00:56:37,680 --> 00:56:39,799 Speaker 2: guess they gave him another shot. He did well last year. 1260 00:56:39,960 --> 00:56:42,799 Speaker 2: The only problem I have bringing him back he's gonna 1261 00:56:42,800 --> 00:56:46,080 Speaker 2: be thirty two years old, so you know that's that's 1262 00:56:46,120 --> 00:56:49,120 Speaker 2: the age where things start slowing down a little bit. 1263 00:56:49,120 --> 00:56:50,560 Speaker 2: But I think he was a good player. It's going 1264 00:56:50,640 --> 00:56:52,080 Speaker 2: to help the Cleveland Browns of defense. 1265 00:56:53,360 --> 00:56:56,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean the Browns certainly need up on defense. 1266 00:56:56,200 --> 00:56:57,840 Speaker 3: But we can talk about all the things the Browns 1267 00:56:57,840 --> 00:57:02,000 Speaker 3: and everybody else, but ultimately Brown's plight will be determined 1268 00:57:02,400 --> 00:57:05,680 Speaker 3: by Deshaun Watson. Deshaun Watson plays well, then there won't 1269 00:57:05,680 --> 00:57:08,000 Speaker 3: be any issues with the Cleveland Browns. And DeShawn wasn't 1270 00:57:08,080 --> 00:57:10,680 Speaker 3: doesn't play well, then they have no hope. They put 1271 00:57:10,800 --> 00:57:14,120 Speaker 3: a lot of money, a lot of resources into the 1272 00:57:14,120 --> 00:57:17,360 Speaker 3: former Pro Bowl quarterback and he's yet to deliver to 1273 00:57:17,440 --> 00:57:20,000 Speaker 3: the degree and to the expectation based on his compensation. 1274 00:57:20,600 --> 00:57:21,560 Speaker 4: He has to play well. 1275 00:57:21,760 --> 00:57:26,280 Speaker 3: So it's on, Uh looks on, it's Kevin Stefanski handing 1276 00:57:26,280 --> 00:57:29,360 Speaker 3: it over to Ken Dorsey to get Deshaun Watson playing well. 1277 00:57:29,480 --> 00:57:34,680 Speaker 3: King Ken Dorsey unlock Uh, Deshaun Watson's talents in the 1278 00:57:34,720 --> 00:57:36,560 Speaker 3: dog pound. That's the number one thing. 1279 00:57:36,840 --> 00:57:39,080 Speaker 2: All right. Go to the Dallas Cowboys right now. I 1280 00:57:39,080 --> 00:57:40,800 Speaker 2: guess the big question right there is Dak Presco. He 1281 00:57:40,880 --> 00:57:42,800 Speaker 2: said to get the money. There's no one else to 1282 00:57:42,800 --> 00:57:44,640 Speaker 2: play quarterback on that club, so it's going to be him. 1283 00:57:44,720 --> 00:57:47,000 Speaker 2: I think the big move for Dallas Cowboy fans, and 1284 00:57:47,000 --> 00:57:49,160 Speaker 2: it hasn't been talked about much, but it's off the 1285 00:57:49,160 --> 00:57:53,440 Speaker 2: field because uh, you know, Mike zimmer now is the 1286 00:57:53,440 --> 00:57:55,840 Speaker 2: defensive coordinator after losing Dan Quinn. I think it's a 1287 00:57:55,880 --> 00:57:58,040 Speaker 2: big move. We'll see what happens with Mike Zimmer coming 1288 00:57:58,080 --> 00:57:59,760 Speaker 2: back with dan Quinn, who was one heck of a 1289 00:57:59,760 --> 00:58:02,280 Speaker 2: defensive coordinator. So we'll see that's going to be the 1290 00:58:02,400 --> 00:58:04,600 Speaker 2: change I would think, and maybe change for the good. 1291 00:58:04,640 --> 00:58:07,040 Speaker 2: I don't know, because I think dan Quinn's pretty darn 1292 00:58:07,080 --> 00:58:08,360 Speaker 2: good and you know better than me. 1293 00:58:09,320 --> 00:58:11,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, dan Quinn is really good. 1294 00:58:11,520 --> 00:58:14,280 Speaker 3: Dan Quinn And the underrated part of it is Joe Witt, 1295 00:58:14,360 --> 00:58:17,600 Speaker 3: who was in Dallas as the defensive pass game coordinator 1296 00:58:17,680 --> 00:58:19,760 Speaker 3: secondary coach, did a really good job of backing up 1297 00:58:19,840 --> 00:58:23,680 Speaker 3: dan Quinn. They've worked together to make happen. Both guys 1298 00:58:23,720 --> 00:58:26,160 Speaker 3: are nail with the Washington Commanders. But it's not only 1299 00:58:26,600 --> 00:58:29,040 Speaker 3: that part of it that will impact the Cowboys. It's 1300 00:58:29,040 --> 00:58:32,120 Speaker 3: the mass exodus of what I would say veteran personnel 1301 00:58:32,240 --> 00:58:34,240 Speaker 3: that goes you think about Dorrence Armstrong and some of 1302 00:58:34,240 --> 00:58:37,400 Speaker 3: the other guys from defense that left. You have a 1303 00:58:37,800 --> 00:58:40,640 Speaker 3: defense that is going to be vastly different with Mike 1304 00:58:40,720 --> 00:58:43,440 Speaker 3: Zimmer coming in, a grizzle coach who can look he 1305 00:58:43,480 --> 00:58:45,280 Speaker 3: might rub some of the players wrong because he's gonna 1306 00:58:45,320 --> 00:58:47,360 Speaker 3: challenge them and the style of play is going to 1307 00:58:47,440 --> 00:58:50,760 Speaker 3: be different than it was with dan Quinn. And then offensively, 1308 00:58:51,200 --> 00:58:53,360 Speaker 3: you have CD Lamb in the building. You bring Zekiel 1309 00:58:53,400 --> 00:58:57,360 Speaker 3: Elliott back, which changes stuff. You don't really have a 1310 00:58:57,400 --> 00:59:01,080 Speaker 3: young back that can offset some of the load that 1311 00:59:01,280 --> 00:59:01,920 Speaker 3: Zeke has. 1312 00:59:03,040 --> 00:59:04,320 Speaker 4: What are they going to do offensively? 1313 00:59:04,360 --> 00:59:07,480 Speaker 3: Can they be as efficient, as effective, as explosive as 1314 00:59:07,480 --> 00:59:08,320 Speaker 3: they've been in the past. 1315 00:59:08,720 --> 00:59:10,000 Speaker 4: I don't know. Man, to me, it. 1316 00:59:09,960 --> 00:59:13,080 Speaker 3: Appears that the Cowboys are in a decline as opposed 1317 00:59:13,080 --> 00:59:15,640 Speaker 3: to ascending as one of the top teams in the league. 1318 00:59:15,880 --> 00:59:18,240 Speaker 2: Well tell what We're trying to be positive here, Bucky. 1319 00:59:18,320 --> 00:59:21,440 Speaker 2: Come on, Dallas Cowboy fans are listening. But I have 1320 00:59:21,520 --> 00:59:23,560 Speaker 2: to agree with you, I really do. I'll talk about 1321 00:59:23,600 --> 00:59:25,919 Speaker 2: the Denver Broncos for a second. They had the twelve 1322 00:59:26,000 --> 00:59:27,760 Speaker 2: pick in the draft, and all of a sudden, their coach, 1323 00:59:27,800 --> 00:59:31,200 Speaker 2: Sean Payton picks up bow Knicks And maybe it's a 1324 00:59:31,240 --> 00:59:34,040 Speaker 2: desperation move. I don't know, but you know what, he's 1325 00:59:34,120 --> 00:59:37,240 Speaker 2: rolling the dice, and he's an offensive guy, and I 1326 00:59:37,280 --> 00:59:39,720 Speaker 2: think that he thinks that he could do that and 1327 00:59:39,840 --> 00:59:42,200 Speaker 2: mold Boone Nicks into the quarterback they need. So I 1328 00:59:42,240 --> 00:59:44,000 Speaker 2: give Sean Payton a lot of credit. Maybe he could 1329 00:59:44,040 --> 00:59:46,680 Speaker 2: do it, Maybe he can't. He better do it because 1330 00:59:46,720 --> 00:59:47,840 Speaker 2: they need a quarterback. 1331 00:59:48,880 --> 00:59:51,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, they shut only need a quarterback. Bow Knicks is 1332 00:59:51,720 --> 00:59:54,360 Speaker 3: the right type for what Sean Payton wants to do. 1333 00:59:54,440 --> 00:59:56,400 Speaker 3: When you look at bow Knicks's skill set and I'm 1334 00:59:56,400 --> 00:59:58,400 Speaker 3: not seeing he's Drew Brees, but he plays the game 1335 00:59:58,720 --> 01:00:00,959 Speaker 3: in a manner in which Drew Brees for a long time. 1336 01:00:01,200 --> 01:00:04,520 Speaker 3: He can operate underneath the intermediate areas of the field works. 1337 01:00:04,560 --> 01:00:07,760 Speaker 3: The middle of the field is a timing, rhythm quarterback, 1338 01:00:07,760 --> 01:00:10,680 Speaker 3: which works for him. Russell Wilson was not a rhythm quarterback, 1339 01:00:11,720 --> 01:00:15,000 Speaker 3: so that message that doesn't job in Peyton's offense. 1340 01:00:15,080 --> 01:00:16,000 Speaker 4: Both next would be fine. 1341 01:00:16,040 --> 01:00:17,760 Speaker 3: Both next would be solved in this offense because you 1342 01:00:17,800 --> 01:00:19,680 Speaker 3: don't set them up for success. I don't know if 1343 01:00:19,680 --> 01:00:22,680 Speaker 3: they have the personnel yet the firepower to help the 1344 01:00:22,680 --> 01:00:24,560 Speaker 3: young quarterback, but they'll get better. 1345 01:00:24,640 --> 01:00:25,560 Speaker 4: Just because this is. 1346 01:00:25,560 --> 01:00:30,200 Speaker 3: More of a Sean Payton team than previous the previous version. 1347 01:00:31,120 --> 01:00:34,080 Speaker 3: That gives me hope that they will be more competitive. 1348 01:00:34,120 --> 01:00:37,160 Speaker 3: Don't think it changes the win call him much, but 1349 01:00:37,200 --> 01:00:39,600 Speaker 3: I think there certainly will be more competitive than they 1350 01:00:39,600 --> 01:00:40,479 Speaker 3: were a season ago. 1351 01:00:40,840 --> 01:00:43,520 Speaker 2: Sounds great. I'm gonna stop here, take a little bit 1352 01:00:43,520 --> 01:00:45,959 Speaker 2: of a breather and I will pick it up maybe 1353 01:00:46,000 --> 01:00:48,600 Speaker 2: with the Detroit Lions. I maybe do it next week. Okay, 1354 01:00:48,640 --> 01:00:50,160 Speaker 2: big guys, we don't have to do every single one 1355 01:00:50,200 --> 01:00:52,320 Speaker 2: this week, So we'll do that and we'll continue on. 1356 01:00:52,400 --> 01:00:54,480 Speaker 2: Because he's Bucky Brooks.

Now, let's talk a 1376 01:01:51,240 --> 01:01:54,600 Speaker 2: little basketball here, talk about the playoffs, Boston Celtics. That'll 1377 01:01:54,640 --> 01:01:56,640 Speaker 2: probably wrap it up tomorrow night in Boston, but let's 1378 01:01:56,640 --> 01:01:58,760 Speaker 2: take it in depth. Look, let's pull back the curtain 1379 01:01:58,760 --> 01:02:00,960 Speaker 2: if we count for a second. Buck Brad Steve is 1380 01:02:00,960 --> 01:02:04,480 Speaker 2: the general manager when he coached Butler in Indianapolis. I 1381 01:02:04,480 --> 01:02:07,200 Speaker 2: remember him back then. Look what he's done is general manager. 1382 01:02:07,200 --> 01:02:10,280 Speaker 2: He traded for Derek White, he obtained true Holiday, he 1383 01:02:10,280 --> 01:02:13,360 Speaker 2: played little little, basically nothing for Christas Porzingis, and he's 1384 01:02:13,360 --> 01:02:16,880 Speaker 2: got the Jays Jason Tatum and Jalen Brown. And let's 1385 01:02:16,880 --> 01:02:19,240 Speaker 2: talk about that duo right now, because this time a 1386 01:02:19,320 --> 01:02:22,640 Speaker 2: year ago, and look, both of those guys, Tatum and Brown, 1387 01:02:23,200 --> 01:02:25,560 Speaker 2: known as the Jays, They've been the subject of a 1388 01:02:25,600 --> 01:02:28,600 Speaker 2: lot of speculation, a lot that they can't get it done, 1389 01:02:28,640 --> 01:02:31,080 Speaker 2: they can't close it, whatever it may be. And this 1390 01:02:31,200 --> 01:02:34,320 Speaker 2: time a year ago, Jason Tatum of Brown looked a 1391 01:02:34,360 --> 01:02:36,880 Speaker 2: lot less special than he do today. That's for sure. 1392 01:02:37,120 --> 01:02:39,640 Speaker 2: They had a game seven loss against Miami the Heat 1393 01:02:39,680 --> 01:02:42,280 Speaker 2: in the Eastern Conference Finals. Jason Tatum in that game, 1394 01:02:42,480 --> 01:02:46,240 Speaker 2: he turned his ankle and he played ineffectively, and he 1395 01:02:47,280 --> 01:02:49,640 Speaker 2: really was terrible in that big moment. He really was. 1396 01:02:49,880 --> 01:02:54,520 Speaker 2: And Jalen Brown he had what eight turnovers in that game. 1397 01:02:54,600 --> 01:02:56,880 Speaker 2: So it's a little different right now, but I will 1398 01:02:56,920 --> 01:02:59,280 Speaker 2: say this, I would say it, I said it before. 1399 01:02:59,640 --> 01:03:02,040 Speaker 2: These two guys are the best one two punch in 1400 01:03:02,080 --> 01:03:05,080 Speaker 2: the National Basketball Association right now. The other day when 1401 01:03:05,120 --> 01:03:08,240 Speaker 2: Boston won one on six ninety nine in Game three 1402 01:03:08,560 --> 01:03:10,640 Speaker 2: was a Tatan had thirty one and Brown at thirty. 1403 01:03:10,920 --> 01:03:16,680 Speaker 3: I mean really, I mean they're fantastic tandem drafted back 1404 01:03:16,720 --> 01:03:19,880 Speaker 3: to back years, just the way that they've grown. I 1405 01:03:19,920 --> 01:03:24,080 Speaker 3: can't even imagine that the Celtics thought that this duo 1406 01:03:24,160 --> 01:03:27,400 Speaker 3: would be what it has been or what it is becoming. 1407 01:03:28,600 --> 01:03:31,280 Speaker 3: They are co number one players on a team that 1408 01:03:31,360 --> 01:03:34,240 Speaker 3: is the best team in basketball. Jason Tatum can put 1409 01:03:34,240 --> 01:03:36,560 Speaker 3: the ball in the bucket of a variety of different ways. 1410 01:03:36,600 --> 01:03:39,360 Speaker 3: He's a tough shot taker and a tough shot maker. 1411 01:03:39,840 --> 01:03:42,800 Speaker 3: Jalen Brown is a well rounded player that is a 1412 01:03:42,840 --> 01:03:46,000 Speaker 3: two way player. I can play defense, can lock up, 1413 01:03:46,120 --> 01:03:49,360 Speaker 3: can steal can defend, but also on offense is really 1414 01:03:49,440 --> 01:03:53,160 Speaker 3: electric and dynamic, and we have seen his game even 1415 01:03:53,360 --> 01:03:55,720 Speaker 3: grow over the last couple of years. There was a 1416 01:03:55,760 --> 01:03:57,520 Speaker 3: time where a few years ago they were talking. 1417 01:03:57,400 --> 01:03:57,920 Speaker 4: About this guy. 1418 01:03:58,000 --> 01:03:59,760 Speaker 3: He can't dribble, he can't do this, he turned the 1419 01:03:59,760 --> 01:04:02,320 Speaker 3: ball over, He has some egregious turnovers on a major 1420 01:04:02,320 --> 01:04:04,800 Speaker 3: state where people question, how can he be a three 1421 01:04:04,880 --> 01:04:08,120 Speaker 3: hundred million dollar player? I think he's answered it resoundingly 1422 01:04:08,320 --> 01:04:13,040 Speaker 3: this postseason. He is terrific and so combined. These guys 1423 01:04:13,040 --> 01:04:16,080 Speaker 3: are wired the right way. They play together, and despite 1424 01:04:16,520 --> 01:04:19,720 Speaker 3: outsiders trying to pit them against one another, it is 1425 01:04:19,800 --> 01:04:23,920 Speaker 3: really worked because they found the right glue players to 1426 01:04:24,000 --> 01:04:26,200 Speaker 3: surround them. So both of these guys can flourish in 1427 01:04:26,240 --> 01:04:27,680 Speaker 3: their own respective ways, and. 1428 01:04:27,640 --> 01:04:29,640 Speaker 2: They seem to enjoy one another. I don't think there's 1429 01:04:29,640 --> 01:04:34,240 Speaker 2: any real competition amongst them is like who's better, although 1430 01:04:34,280 --> 01:04:36,400 Speaker 2: I do believe that Jalen Brown will get the MVP. 1431 01:04:36,720 --> 01:04:38,480 Speaker 2: After they went tomorrow night. You look at game one 1432 01:04:38,520 --> 01:04:41,360 Speaker 2: and two in the playoffs against Dallas right now, it 1433 01:04:41,440 --> 01:04:43,560 Speaker 2: was Jalen Brown who got the job done. He scored 1434 01:04:43,560 --> 01:04:46,600 Speaker 2: twenty two and twenty one respectively. Tatum was struggling. He 1435 01:04:46,640 --> 01:04:48,600 Speaker 2: struggled to find the shot. In one of those games 1436 01:04:48,640 --> 01:04:51,360 Speaker 2: on Wednesday, as I mentioned, each guy came up there 1437 01:04:51,360 --> 01:04:54,880 Speaker 2: and they scored thirty one and thirty respectively, and Brown 1438 01:04:55,120 --> 01:04:57,000 Speaker 2: was in there for a couple of dunks and Tatum 1439 01:04:57,040 --> 01:04:59,640 Speaker 2: had four to three pointers. So these guys come to 1440 01:04:59,680 --> 01:05:02,040 Speaker 2: play every game, and I think you'll see big games 1441 01:05:02,040 --> 01:05:04,000 Speaker 2: tomorrow night. It could be all over and I look 1442 01:05:04,040 --> 01:05:06,640 Speaker 2: forward to see Jalen Brown holding up the MVP trophy. 1443 01:05:07,480 --> 01:05:08,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, it could be all over. 1444 01:05:08,760 --> 01:05:13,080 Speaker 3: And if it's all over, it's gonna be something where 1445 01:05:13,120 --> 01:05:15,120 Speaker 3: we do celebrate the greatness of both of these guys. 1446 01:05:15,120 --> 01:05:17,280 Speaker 3: And whether it's Jalen Brown or Jason Tatuman gets the 1447 01:05:17,360 --> 01:05:20,000 Speaker 3: MVP if they win, we're just talking about how great 1448 01:05:20,040 --> 01:05:21,960 Speaker 3: this due has been and they'll be legendary. 1449 01:05:22,440 --> 01:05:25,240 Speaker 4: You understand what goes along with winning in Boston. 1450 01:05:24,920 --> 01:05:27,560 Speaker 3: That it'd be the eight team title and everyone who 1451 01:05:27,640 --> 01:05:30,200 Speaker 3: has won and been a major contributor for those teams 1452 01:05:30,240 --> 01:05:32,360 Speaker 3: has been celebrated in a major way. We're talking about 1453 01:05:32,400 --> 01:05:34,040 Speaker 3: all the Hall of Famers that the Celtics have had 1454 01:05:34,080 --> 01:05:37,520 Speaker 3: throughout the years. It puts them in a different category, 1455 01:05:37,560 --> 01:05:38,680 Speaker 3: a different stratosphere. 1456 01:05:39,000 --> 01:05:40,720 Speaker 4: If they pulled this off for the Celtics. 1457 01:05:41,000 --> 01:05:43,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, I love what Tatum said the other day because 1458 01:05:43,720 --> 01:05:45,880 Speaker 2: when Jason Kidd tried to put a wedge between them, 1459 01:05:45,920 --> 01:05:49,080 Speaker 2: saying that Brown was better, he says, Hey, I think 1460 01:05:49,080 --> 01:05:51,040 Speaker 2: it's a smart thing to do. They're trying to drive 1461 01:05:51,080 --> 01:05:53,520 Speaker 2: a wedge between us. But he says it's not a 1462 01:05:53,520 --> 01:05:56,200 Speaker 2: big deal, and that's great. I'd love to hear that, because, 1463 01:05:56,440 --> 01:05:58,480 Speaker 2: you know, some player wouldn't say a word. The fact 1464 01:05:58,520 --> 01:06:00,200 Speaker 2: that he said that. You know, I always it's a 1465 01:06:00,200 --> 01:06:02,360 Speaker 2: good move on the pun of Jason Kidd because obviously 1466 01:06:02,480 --> 01:06:04,480 Speaker 2: nothing else was working with his teams to try that. 1467 01:06:04,600 --> 01:06:08,240 Speaker 2: But right now, Jalen Brown is the highest paid player 1468 01:06:08,280 --> 01:06:12,040 Speaker 2: in the NBA. I think that Jason Tatum right now 1469 01:06:12,400 --> 01:06:15,520 Speaker 2: could probably boost up his salary right now because he's 1470 01:06:15,520 --> 01:06:18,920 Speaker 2: got a contract extension this summer after the playoffs are off. 1471 01:06:19,000 --> 01:06:20,920 Speaker 2: So that's going to be the story after the season. 1472 01:06:20,920 --> 01:06:23,000 Speaker 2: I'm sure for the Celtics, they'll pay him. They'll pay 1473 01:06:23,040 --> 01:06:24,360 Speaker 2: them both, and they should. 1474 01:06:25,720 --> 01:06:27,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, they have to pay them both, and they certainly 1475 01:06:27,960 --> 01:06:31,040 Speaker 3: will pay him. You know, they'll they'll make sure that 1476 01:06:31,080 --> 01:06:34,160 Speaker 3: both of those guys are compensated and compensated fairly and 1477 01:06:34,320 --> 01:06:37,520 Speaker 3: you should want to kind of see those things happen, 1478 01:06:37,560 --> 01:06:39,880 Speaker 3: because if you've done a really good job as a 1479 01:06:40,160 --> 01:06:43,080 Speaker 3: as an evaluator, if you've drafted well, if you've evaluated 1480 01:06:43,120 --> 01:06:46,120 Speaker 3: the right people, you don't mind signing your guys to 1481 01:06:46,280 --> 01:06:47,800 Speaker 3: those second and third contracts. 1482 01:06:47,840 --> 01:06:50,200 Speaker 4: And even if it pushed them whatever at. 1483 01:06:50,120 --> 01:06:52,760 Speaker 3: The luxury tax threshold, if it forces that, at the 1484 01:06:52,840 --> 01:06:55,680 Speaker 3: end of the day, it's about hoisting championships in Boston, 1485 01:06:56,080 --> 01:06:58,840 Speaker 3: and I think they're willing to sacrifice some of the 1486 01:06:58,880 --> 01:07:02,000 Speaker 3: monetary stuff they have to sacrifice to make sure they 1487 01:07:02,000 --> 01:07:04,720 Speaker 3: can see to hang banners in that are in and they. 1488 01:07:04,640 --> 01:07:06,520 Speaker 2: Will hang a banner after tomorrow night's win. But I 1489 01:07:06,520 --> 01:07:08,080 Speaker 2: will tell you this much, should they lose, which I 1490 01:07:08,080 --> 01:07:10,160 Speaker 2: don't think is gonna happen, there's no way on God's 1491 01:07:10,200 --> 01:07:12,560 Speaker 2: green earth, Dallas is gonna win three straight games. But 1492 01:07:12,880 --> 01:07:14,560 Speaker 2: if they do lose, and then all of a sudden, 1493 01:07:14,600 --> 01:07:16,439 Speaker 2: these guys are going to be said, they'll be called 1494 01:07:16,520 --> 01:07:19,160 Speaker 2: choke artists. They can't get the job done. They fold 1495 01:07:19,200 --> 01:07:21,000 Speaker 2: in the big games. And I think that is so 1496 01:07:21,160 --> 01:07:24,640 Speaker 2: unfair because it doesn't take away for how great they are. 1497 01:07:25,160 --> 01:07:27,520 Speaker 2: I mean, they're great. They're two great players and there's 1498 01:07:27,520 --> 01:07:30,040 Speaker 2: a pleasure watching not only them play, but watching the 1499 01:07:30,160 --> 01:07:33,040 Speaker 2: entire Celtic team play. They play team basketball the way 1500 01:07:33,040 --> 01:07:36,280 Speaker 2: they passed that ball around, and defensively Dallas can't keep 1501 01:07:36,360 --> 01:07:38,480 Speaker 2: up with them. That's the key of the game right there. 1502 01:07:38,600 --> 01:07:40,920 Speaker 2: They just work the ball so well, they really do. 1503 01:07:41,080 --> 01:07:43,520 Speaker 2: And tomorrow night they say that poor Zingis may be 1504 01:07:43,600 --> 01:07:45,720 Speaker 2: healthy enough to play a couple of minutes, so that'll 1505 01:07:45,760 --> 01:07:46,240 Speaker 2: really help. 1506 01:07:47,360 --> 01:07:50,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, if for Zingis comes, because he stretches the floor, 1507 01:07:50,560 --> 01:07:53,840 Speaker 3: he pulls another defender out of the paint. He also 1508 01:07:53,880 --> 01:07:56,440 Speaker 3: gives them another three shooter, a three ball shooter, which 1509 01:07:56,720 --> 01:08:00,280 Speaker 3: man just stretches the defense all over the floor and 1510 01:08:00,320 --> 01:08:03,240 Speaker 3: it leads to more open opportunities to drive and get 1511 01:08:03,280 --> 01:08:06,560 Speaker 3: into the paint. He's a huge addition, a huge asset 1512 01:08:06,640 --> 01:08:08,840 Speaker 3: to the Steam and they need him. My issue, in 1513 01:08:08,880 --> 01:08:13,400 Speaker 3: my concern would be for Perzingis. He was injured, took 1514 01:08:13,440 --> 01:08:15,720 Speaker 3: about thirty eight days before he came back, played in 1515 01:08:15,720 --> 01:08:17,880 Speaker 3: two games, and then he's right back to being injured again. 1516 01:08:18,280 --> 01:08:21,920 Speaker 3: How serious is this injury and is it worth risking 1517 01:08:22,479 --> 01:08:26,920 Speaker 3: his future to get what contributions he can give you 1518 01:08:27,080 --> 01:08:30,439 Speaker 3: right now? I think that's an organizational decisions. Something that 1519 01:08:30,479 --> 01:08:31,280 Speaker 3: they have to talk about. 1520 01:08:31,560 --> 01:08:33,759 Speaker 2: We'll find that out tomorrow, all right, He's fucking Brooks. 1521 01:08:33,800 --> 01:08:36,599 Speaker 2: How many Furman we are Fox Sports Sunday on Fox 1522 01:08:36,600 --> 01:08:40,679 Speaker 2: Sports Radio.

There's something 1592 01:12:18,000 --> 01:12:21,559 Speaker 3: to what Jim Harbaugh does that makes players not only 1593 01:12:21,600 --> 01:12:26,120 Speaker 3: gravitate to him, but show the utmost respect for him, 1594 01:12:26,680 --> 01:12:30,880 Speaker 3: whether it's been at any of his previous boys USD, Stanford, 1595 01:12:31,000 --> 01:12:35,360 Speaker 3: San Francisco, Michigan and now the Chargers players adore him 1596 01:12:35,439 --> 01:12:38,280 Speaker 3: and his players ride for him.

It's been a different experience than Herbert has 1624 01:13:55,160 --> 01:13:56,920 Speaker 2: been with other other coach. He says, it's one that 1625 01:13:56,960 --> 01:13:59,760 Speaker 2: he has appreciated. Harbor right now, he's sixty years old. 1626 01:14:00,000 --> 01:14:02,000 Speaker 2: And it says that he's done push ups with linebacker 1627 01:14:02,080 --> 01:14:05,400 Speaker 2: Junior Colson, He's shown rookie quarterback Casey Bauman a proper 1628 01:14:05,479 --> 01:14:08,720 Speaker 2: drop back and pulled hundreds of pounds of weights. And 1629 01:14:08,800 --> 01:14:11,760 Speaker 2: Herbert said that Harbard doesn't playfully do these workouts. He's 1630 01:14:11,800 --> 01:14:14,760 Speaker 2: always trying to win. I mean to me, you get 1631 01:14:14,760 --> 01:14:17,120 Speaker 2: a coach like that that's doing it, you want to 1632 01:14:17,120 --> 01:14:20,200 Speaker 2: do it with him? How could you not want to perform. 1633 01:14:20,280 --> 01:14:21,639 Speaker 2: I mean, he's the kind of the guy you wanted 1634 01:14:21,640 --> 01:14:23,920 Speaker 2: to run through a fire for. I would think, right. 1635 01:14:24,640 --> 01:14:27,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, you are. And here's what I would relate it to. 1636 01:14:27,600 --> 01:14:30,200 Speaker 3: And I'm gonna say this as a former player, but 1637 01:14:30,200 --> 01:14:33,800 Speaker 3: I'm gonna say this, just the experience in being in 1638 01:14:33,800 --> 01:14:36,479 Speaker 3: the National Football League and how a lot of times 1639 01:14:36,520 --> 01:14:40,160 Speaker 3: former players were shunned from coaching roles. We have seen 1640 01:14:40,240 --> 01:14:43,879 Speaker 3: the impact that Dan Campbell has had on the Detroit Lions. 1641 01:14:44,080 --> 01:14:46,960 Speaker 3: And if you watch The Hard Knocks when Dan Campbell 1642 01:14:47,000 --> 01:14:49,519 Speaker 3: was there and you look at the staff that he 1643 01:14:49,600 --> 01:14:51,760 Speaker 3: is assembled with a bunch of former players and how 1644 01:14:51,800 --> 01:14:54,479 Speaker 3: they were able to connect with the players. There is 1645 01:14:54,560 --> 01:14:59,160 Speaker 3: something to being within the fraternity that players respect. They 1646 01:14:59,200 --> 01:15:01,800 Speaker 3: respect that Hall has been there, they respect that when 1647 01:15:01,840 --> 01:15:04,240 Speaker 3: he's saying it, he's saying it from a place of 1648 01:15:04,320 --> 01:15:07,880 Speaker 3: experience and expertise. Hey I've been in those shoes. I 1649 01:15:07,960 --> 01:15:10,160 Speaker 3: know what this camp is like. I know how hard 1650 01:15:10,200 --> 01:15:12,760 Speaker 3: this game is. But if you listen to me, I'm 1651 01:15:12,760 --> 01:15:15,040 Speaker 3: gonna get you to the other side. And because he's 1652 01:15:15,040 --> 01:15:18,479 Speaker 3: had results, positive results where he's won a national championship, 1653 01:15:18,479 --> 01:15:20,160 Speaker 3: he's won a bunch of games, led a team to 1654 01:15:20,200 --> 01:15:23,920 Speaker 3: a super Bowl, guys are more willing to buy in 1655 01:15:24,760 --> 01:15:27,760 Speaker 3: that matters in this league because it's still a league 1656 01:15:27,800 --> 01:15:30,599 Speaker 3: built on relationships. And we talked about it. I've said 1657 01:15:30,600 --> 01:15:33,639 Speaker 3: it on multiple times on the show. Commitment, accountability, and trust. 1658 01:15:33,920 --> 01:15:36,400 Speaker 3: If guys see that you committed, if they can hold 1659 01:15:36,479 --> 01:15:39,120 Speaker 3: each other accountable and they can develop that trust, well, then. 1660 01:15:39,040 --> 01:15:41,639 Speaker 4: You can kind of go to the next level. 1661 01:15:41,680 --> 01:15:45,519 Speaker 3: And Harbaugh establishes that by making sure he's vulnerable enough 1662 01:15:45,800 --> 01:15:48,080 Speaker 3: to jump in there and exposed to even at sixty 1663 01:15:48,320 --> 01:15:50,599 Speaker 3: to jump in there and do those things while displaying 1664 01:15:50,640 --> 01:15:53,160 Speaker 3: the competitive zeal that they can see. 1665 01:15:53,840 --> 01:15:56,439 Speaker 4: They're all in on him. And it's not only justin Herbert. 1666 01:15:56,439 --> 01:15:58,720 Speaker 3: It's the words that I've heard from Derwin James, what 1667 01:15:58,800 --> 01:16:02,040 Speaker 3: I've heard Joey Bosen people say about him. This team 1668 01:16:02,120 --> 01:16:04,439 Speaker 3: is all in and the reports that you get about 1669 01:16:04,800 --> 01:16:08,639 Speaker 3: Harbor cutting short practice thirty minutes, but gas still staying 1670 01:16:08,720 --> 01:16:11,840 Speaker 3: on the field. What you want is a team that 1671 01:16:12,000 --> 01:16:15,679 Speaker 3: wants to not ah man, I gotta I gotta stay. 1672 01:16:16,520 --> 01:16:19,000 Speaker 3: He has a player led team that gives them an 1673 01:16:19,000 --> 01:16:20,840 Speaker 3: opportunity to do great things on the field. 1674 01:16:21,280 --> 01:16:25,040 Speaker 2: It's all about kat according to you, commitment, accountability, and trust. 1675 01:16:25,160 --> 01:16:27,280 Speaker 2: And look, here's a part of the story that I 1676 01:16:27,320 --> 01:16:29,479 Speaker 2: went crazy with because I won't know why other coaches 1677 01:16:29,520 --> 01:16:32,320 Speaker 2: don't do this, says Holdball's attention to detail and energy 1678 01:16:32,560 --> 01:16:35,240 Speaker 2: has stood out to players the most. While other camps 1679 01:16:35,240 --> 01:16:38,559 Speaker 2: are more relaxed, with players in baseball caps and loose 1680 01:16:38,640 --> 01:16:43,360 Speaker 2: practice jerseys, the Chargers practice in game jerseys and helmets. 1681 01:16:43,560 --> 01:16:46,400 Speaker 2: It's a strategy that the team's best players have already 1682 01:16:46,400 --> 01:16:49,200 Speaker 2: brought into but it didn't come without some questioning because 1683 01:16:49,240 --> 01:16:51,920 Speaker 2: it says that you're going to breathe differently in the 1684 01:16:52,000 --> 01:16:55,120 Speaker 2: practice jersey, practice pants, or whatever the case may be. 1685 01:16:55,600 --> 01:16:57,960 Speaker 2: How do you like that? Why don't other coaches do that? 1686 01:16:58,960 --> 01:16:59,080 Speaker 11: Well? 1687 01:16:59,120 --> 01:17:01,160 Speaker 3: I mean, it just depends. Some people don't get it. 1688 01:17:01,200 --> 01:17:03,559 Speaker 3: But you got to understand everything that Jim Harboy's trying 1689 01:17:03,600 --> 01:17:07,120 Speaker 3: to do is he wants his team to play a 1690 01:17:07,120 --> 01:17:10,320 Speaker 3: physical brand of style where they're tougher and they outlast 1691 01:17:10,360 --> 01:17:13,760 Speaker 3: the other team. I've heard this because and watching what 1692 01:17:13,800 --> 01:17:16,800 Speaker 3: he did at Michigan and them talking about outlasting the 1693 01:17:16,840 --> 01:17:19,000 Speaker 3: opponent and how hard the game is and how you 1694 01:17:19,000 --> 01:17:21,479 Speaker 3: got to be ready for it. He wants them to 1695 01:17:21,520 --> 01:17:23,680 Speaker 3: know that, a, we play football a different way than 1696 01:17:23,800 --> 01:17:27,120 Speaker 3: other teams do, and our style is different than their style, but. 1697 01:17:27,080 --> 01:17:29,320 Speaker 4: When we meet them, they're going to. 1698 01:17:29,360 --> 01:17:32,080 Speaker 3: Fill us because we've prepared for this to be a 1699 01:17:32,160 --> 01:17:35,880 Speaker 3: very physical affair. We've prepared for this game to be 1700 01:17:35,920 --> 01:17:39,040 Speaker 3: a long grind, and we're going to outlast you in 1701 01:17:39,120 --> 01:17:41,240 Speaker 3: the end. That's why. And it stood out to me 1702 01:17:41,280 --> 01:17:44,640 Speaker 3: immediately that's why when you watch them during OTA's you 1703 01:17:44,680 --> 01:17:47,040 Speaker 3: saw them in helmets, you saw them in jerseys, you 1704 01:17:47,080 --> 01:17:50,080 Speaker 3: saw them in practice pants, because they're getting ready to 1705 01:17:50,120 --> 01:17:52,680 Speaker 3: play football. Other people are taking it light and it 1706 01:17:52,720 --> 01:17:56,440 Speaker 3: may work for other people. A hats on backwards, shorts, 1707 01:17:56,640 --> 01:17:58,160 Speaker 3: loose atmosphere. 1708 01:17:58,680 --> 01:17:59,759 Speaker 4: It's just a difference. 1709 01:18:00,120 --> 01:18:02,719 Speaker 3: But the reason why his player is by end because 1710 01:18:02,720 --> 01:18:06,120 Speaker 3: they've seen the positive results in his previous destinations. That's 1711 01:18:06,160 --> 01:18:10,080 Speaker 3: why there's little questioning and the messaging every day is 1712 01:18:10,120 --> 01:18:14,639 Speaker 3: about toughness, physicality, out working, outlasting. We're gonna outwork people, 1713 01:18:14,640 --> 01:18:16,080 Speaker 3: were gonna outlast them in the end. 1714 01:18:16,360 --> 01:18:17,200 Speaker 4: That's what it's about. 1715 01:18:17,240 --> 01:18:20,040 Speaker 3: And his teams are going when they have that breakthrough 1716 01:18:20,120 --> 01:18:21,920 Speaker 3: moment where they get into a game and they win 1717 01:18:22,040 --> 01:18:24,600 Speaker 3: late in the fourth quarter, they're gonna look back to 1718 01:18:24,680 --> 01:18:27,360 Speaker 3: all the things that they've done and say that, Hey, 1719 01:18:27,520 --> 01:18:28,360 Speaker 3: that's the reason. 1720 01:18:28,439 --> 01:18:31,080 Speaker 4: That's our secret sauce. We outwork people. That's why we win. 1721 01:18:31,520 --> 01:18:33,040 Speaker 2: How do you like that? I love it? Okay, we'll 1722 01:18:33,040 --> 01:18:34,599 Speaker 2: see what happens during the season. I think they will 1723 01:18:34,600 --> 01:18:36,479 Speaker 2: win this year because he does win. He's a winner, 1724 01:18:36,479 --> 01:18:38,479 Speaker 2: all right. He's Bucky Brooks on Andy Furman. We have 1725 01:18:38,600 --> 01:18:41,920 Speaker 2: Fox Sports Sunday on Fox Sports Radio. This isn't a game, 1726 01:18:42,200 --> 01:18:47,280 Speaker 2: it's a war bottom barrel betting.

Yes it is. Let's 1735 01:19:05,760 --> 01:19:08,519 Speaker 2: go to the eye man, because time is a wasted here. 1736 01:19:09,080 --> 01:19:09,479 Speaker 5: All right. 1737 01:19:09,560 --> 01:19:12,200 Speaker 14: Well, last week it was a tie, so Andy, that's 1738 01:19:12,200 --> 01:19:15,200 Speaker 14: an improvement.

Yes he won, 1744 01:19:28,680 --> 01:19:31,080 Speaker 14: and the other option ended up having a DNF, So 1745 01:19:31,360 --> 01:19:33,439 Speaker 14: that kind of saved you there. That was a pendulum 1746 01:19:33,520 --> 01:19:36,240 Speaker 14: swinging moment. So well done, Andy, Well done. 1747 01:19:37,320 --> 01:19:37,479 Speaker 5: Yeah. 1748 01:19:37,520 --> 01:19:40,000 Speaker 14: So let's get into this week's this week's line, so 1749 01:19:40,760 --> 01:19:43,600 Speaker 14: we'll start off with American Cornhole League.

I think he too much for him 1811 01:22:38,439 --> 01:22:39,880 Speaker 3: in church. Now, I don't think he listens to an 1812 01:22:39,880 --> 01:22:42,280 Speaker 3: in church. He may catch it on the podcast, though I. 1813 01:22:42,200 --> 01:22:43,960 Speaker 2: Thought he might do that. All right, let's talk about this. 1814 01:22:43,960 --> 01:22:46,519 Speaker 2: Who about Buckey Brooks right now? The son, the player, 1815 01:22:46,640 --> 01:22:48,680 Speaker 2: the coach, to scout, the writer and I love an 1816 01:22:48,760 --> 01:22:50,559 Speaker 2: NFL dot com and this week was a great one 1817 01:22:50,560 --> 01:22:53,160 Speaker 2: if you miss it.

Just click on the 1819 01:22:56,000 --> 01:22:59,360 Speaker 2: writers and scroll down to Buckie Brooks, And this week 1820 01:22:59,400 --> 01:23:02,080 Speaker 2: he wrote about what I love offense in football? And 1821 01:23:02,080 --> 01:23:05,920 Speaker 2: you started out with Calvin Johnson. And I remember back 1822 01:23:05,920 --> 01:23:08,960 Speaker 2: in twenty twelve he almost had two thousand yards? What 1823 01:23:09,000 --> 01:23:11,479 Speaker 2: do he had? Hundred and sixty four yards something like that. 1824 01:23:11,960 --> 01:23:15,240 Speaker 2: What made Calvin Johnson so good? Obviously a Hall of 1825 01:23:15,240 --> 01:23:19,080 Speaker 2: Famer number one wide receiver for the Detroit Lions. But 1826 01:23:19,160 --> 01:23:20,519 Speaker 2: what made him so good? 1827 01:23:21,600 --> 01:23:25,520 Speaker 3: Well, one, you talk about a guy who had unbelievable 1828 01:23:25,760 --> 01:23:28,719 Speaker 3: advantages when it comes to just being a supersized athlete 1829 01:23:28,760 --> 01:23:31,000 Speaker 3: on the perimeter. You just don't see guys six four 1830 01:23:31,080 --> 01:23:34,000 Speaker 3: sixty five that can run four three forties, that can 1831 01:23:34,120 --> 01:23:36,200 Speaker 3: jump out of the gym and just kind of overwhelm 1832 01:23:36,320 --> 01:23:39,320 Speaker 3: defenders like Calvin Johnson. So when you have that kind 1833 01:23:39,320 --> 01:23:41,920 Speaker 3: of size, that kind of speed and athleticism and the 1834 01:23:42,040 --> 01:23:45,000 Speaker 3: ability to expand the strike zone with his length, he's 1835 01:23:45,040 --> 01:23:48,400 Speaker 3: nearly impossible to guard. You have a quarterback in Matthew 1836 01:23:48,400 --> 01:23:50,400 Speaker 3: Stafford who was willing to throw it to him, and 1837 01:23:50,439 --> 01:23:52,360 Speaker 3: throw it to him regardless of the coverage, and he 1838 01:23:52,400 --> 01:23:54,360 Speaker 3: could come down with it. You just don't see freak 1839 01:23:54,520 --> 01:23:56,320 Speaker 3: athletes like that, which is why he was a Hall 1840 01:23:56,360 --> 01:23:58,920 Speaker 3: of Famer, which is also why he established a new 1841 01:23:58,960 --> 01:24:01,920 Speaker 3: single season record for were the position. 1842 01:24:02,560 --> 01:24:05,120 Speaker 2: Okay, and you had an unbelievable statistic in your story 1843 01:24:05,160 --> 01:24:09,000 Speaker 2: this week. Last year, twenty eight pass catches finished with 1844 01:24:09,240 --> 01:24:12,240 Speaker 2: one thousand plus yards, including a pair of whiteouts who 1845 01:24:12,320 --> 01:24:16,639 Speaker 2: exceeded seventeen hundred yards, Tyreek Hill and Cedee Lamb. Twelve 1846 01:24:16,680 --> 01:24:19,760 Speaker 2: players making one hundred and more catches in twenty twenty three. 1847 01:24:20,200 --> 01:24:22,799 Speaker 2: And look, I get it. It's a different game today 1848 01:24:22,800 --> 01:24:25,200 Speaker 2: than it was when Calvin Johnson played. So maybe it's 1849 01:24:25,240 --> 01:24:28,080 Speaker 2: even more special that Calvin Johnson did what he did 1850 01:24:28,360 --> 01:24:31,120 Speaker 2: because now it's a passing game. The game has changed 1851 01:24:31,160 --> 01:24:34,160 Speaker 2: so much so, I mean there's not even a fullback 1852 01:24:34,200 --> 01:24:37,280 Speaker 2: that the term full back basically is like a dinosaur. 1853 01:24:37,479 --> 01:24:39,479 Speaker 2: No full backs anymore in the game of football. So 1854 01:24:39,520 --> 01:24:42,040 Speaker 2: the running game is basically there, but it's not as 1855 01:24:42,080 --> 01:24:43,080 Speaker 2: strong as it once was. 1856 01:24:44,200 --> 01:24:46,599 Speaker 3: No, it's not as strong. It's a passing league. It's 1857 01:24:46,600 --> 01:24:49,200 Speaker 3: all about the past. It's about putting guys in a 1858 01:24:49,240 --> 01:24:53,000 Speaker 3: position to make a ton of plays, and as long 1859 01:24:53,160 --> 01:24:55,640 Speaker 3: as you have guys that can win their one on 1860 01:24:55,640 --> 01:24:58,040 Speaker 3: one matchups on the outside, like you're gonna go, You're 1861 01:24:58,040 --> 01:25:00,760 Speaker 3: gonna opt to attack drough the and that's what all 1862 01:25:00,800 --> 01:25:03,360 Speaker 3: these teams are doing. And the athletes on the perimeter 1863 01:25:03,439 --> 01:25:06,879 Speaker 3: are so much different than they were and yesteryear, better athletes, stronger, 1864 01:25:06,920 --> 01:25:10,200 Speaker 3: more explosive, more dynamic, and I would say better prepared 1865 01:25:10,240 --> 01:25:12,920 Speaker 3: to play because of the exposures they have gotten in 1866 01:25:13,000 --> 01:25:15,759 Speaker 3: terms of the reps seven oh seven high school, everyone 1867 01:25:15,800 --> 01:25:16,719 Speaker 3: is thrown around the yard. 1868 01:25:16,880 --> 01:25:19,439 Speaker 4: So you're getting a better product in the National Football 1869 01:25:19,479 --> 01:25:20,679 Speaker 4: League than you were getting before. 1870 01:25:21,000 --> 01:25:23,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, people love it too. You got the top five 1871 01:25:23,360 --> 01:25:28,360 Speaker 2: guys that basically are the biggest threats to break the 1872 01:25:28,439 --> 01:25:30,920 Speaker 2: NFL single season receiving record. You got the top five, 1873 01:25:30,960 --> 01:25:33,200 Speaker 2: all right, we're gonna go through them. And you got 1874 01:25:33,280 --> 01:25:36,719 Speaker 2: number one, Tyreek Hill. And what amazes me with him, 1875 01:25:37,000 --> 01:25:39,280 Speaker 2: It didn't make a difference what quarterback he had. He 1876 01:25:39,439 --> 01:25:41,599 Speaker 2: was great in Kansas City with Patrick Mahomes. Now he's 1877 01:25:41,600 --> 01:25:44,320 Speaker 2: great with Tua. So this guy's got it all. So 1878 01:25:44,400 --> 01:25:46,800 Speaker 2: he's going to be number one. And again, what makes 1879 01:25:46,880 --> 01:25:49,720 Speaker 2: him so good He has some pretty big numbers back 1880 01:25:49,760 --> 01:25:53,160 Speaker 2: to back years with seventeen hundred plus receiving yards in Miami. 1881 01:25:53,600 --> 01:25:55,760 Speaker 2: He's gonna get over two thousand. I know that he will. 1882 01:25:55,760 --> 01:25:57,800 Speaker 2: I don't know when, but he will. 1883 01:25:58,040 --> 01:25:58,240 Speaker 4: Yeah. 1884 01:25:58,400 --> 01:26:00,879 Speaker 3: Look, he's gonna have that opportunity back to back seasons 1885 01:26:00,880 --> 01:26:02,519 Speaker 3: with seventeen hundred yards. 1886 01:26:02,560 --> 01:26:03,920 Speaker 4: He can do it in a variety of ways. 1887 01:26:03,960 --> 01:26:06,000 Speaker 3: He can take the top off the defense vertically, he 1888 01:26:06,040 --> 01:26:09,840 Speaker 3: can make big plays on catch and run concepts horizontally 1889 01:26:09,920 --> 01:26:12,639 Speaker 3: running across the fields. And he has a play caller 1890 01:26:12,800 --> 01:26:15,559 Speaker 3: that wants to attack. And they believe that the best 1891 01:26:15,600 --> 01:26:18,120 Speaker 3: players on the perimeter. It's not only tybreek Hill, it's 1892 01:26:18,200 --> 01:26:21,160 Speaker 3: Jayden Waddle, and so they put the defense in a 1893 01:26:21,280 --> 01:26:24,320 Speaker 3: bond over and over and over again, and you have 1894 01:26:24,360 --> 01:26:26,360 Speaker 3: to kind of account for all of the different things 1895 01:26:26,360 --> 01:26:26,880 Speaker 3: that they can do. 1896 01:26:27,120 --> 01:26:30,240 Speaker 4: But tybreek Hill is destrawed a sturge to drink in Miami. 1897 01:26:30,560 --> 01:26:32,920 Speaker 3: He is going to have enough opportunities to put him 1898 01:26:32,960 --> 01:26:35,000 Speaker 3: close to two thousand yards with two a tongue by 1899 01:26:35,040 --> 01:26:35,839 Speaker 3: lower a quarterback. 1900 01:26:36,320 --> 01:26:39,559 Speaker 2: Okay, number two, this is an amazing one. But I 1901 01:26:39,600 --> 01:26:43,000 Speaker 2: gotta tell you a story. You got a monro Saint Brown, 1902 01:26:43,200 --> 01:26:46,240 Speaker 2: all right, I must have sent him something in the mail, 1903 01:26:46,600 --> 01:26:50,120 Speaker 2: because I'm looking at my texts and I got a 1904 01:26:50,160 --> 01:26:54,080 Speaker 2: text here on December the eighth, twenty twenty two. All right, 1905 01:26:54,640 --> 01:27:00,000 Speaker 2: hello Andy, this is the mother of a Monra and Equanimius. 1906 01:27:00,400 --> 01:27:03,320 Speaker 2: We just got your wonderful article.

I got the phone number here. 1911 01:27:13,800 --> 01:27:16,160 Speaker 2: I'm gonna call this week. Maybe we'll get him on 1912 01:27:16,160 --> 01:27:18,400 Speaker 2: on next Sunday. What do you think? 1913 01:27:19,280 --> 01:27:19,559 Speaker 4: I mean? 1914 01:27:19,640 --> 01:27:21,800 Speaker 2: This is amazing. I don't remember sending him anything, to 1915 01:27:21,800 --> 01:27:24,000 Speaker 2: be honest, but I send everybody everything. 1916 01:27:24,600 --> 01:27:24,840 Speaker 4: I mean. 1917 01:27:24,880 --> 01:27:26,280 Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, like you kind of want to make 1918 01:27:26,280 --> 01:27:28,240 Speaker 3: it where everyone feels, specially you're not just out there 1919 01:27:28,320 --> 01:27:31,600 Speaker 3: just blasting everybody any firman stuff. So like, try not 1920 01:27:31,720 --> 01:27:32,720 Speaker 3: to say that on air. 1921 01:27:32,800 --> 01:27:35,120 Speaker 4: Andy. You may think that, but don't say it on air. 1922 01:27:35,760 --> 01:27:36,400 Speaker 4: I will say this. 1923 01:27:36,760 --> 01:27:40,160 Speaker 3: I would say this having known Amarra Saint Brown since 1924 01:27:40,160 --> 01:27:41,800 Speaker 3: he was in high school, I can say the player 1925 01:27:41,800 --> 01:27:43,479 Speaker 3: that we're seeing now is the same player that he 1926 01:27:43,640 --> 01:27:48,200 Speaker 3: was in high school. High IQ intensely competitive, natural alpha 1927 01:27:48,320 --> 01:27:52,400 Speaker 3: dog who loves the competitive part of the game. I 1928 01:27:52,479 --> 01:27:55,280 Speaker 3: am not surprised that he's had success in the league. 1929 01:27:55,320 --> 01:27:57,640 Speaker 3: I may be surprised to the level of success, but 1930 01:27:57,720 --> 01:28:00,400 Speaker 3: this is a dominant player and he is, and I 1931 01:28:00,439 --> 01:28:04,000 Speaker 3: would say an unorthodox number one receiver because he does 1932 01:28:04,040 --> 01:28:06,600 Speaker 3: most of his work from the slot. But he is 1933 01:28:06,640 --> 01:28:09,519 Speaker 3: going to get opportunities because he's earned the right to 1934 01:28:09,560 --> 01:28:12,720 Speaker 3: get the ball from Jarrett Golf any and everywhere in 1935 01:28:12,760 --> 01:28:15,320 Speaker 3: any situation in location. He's going to find a way 1936 01:28:15,320 --> 01:28:18,719 Speaker 3: to be the priority in the passing game because of that. 1937 01:28:18,720 --> 01:28:21,040 Speaker 3: That gives him a chance to get to the two 1938 01:28:21,080 --> 01:28:25,840 Speaker 3: thousand yard mark. It's about opportunities and it's about being 1939 01:28:25,880 --> 01:28:28,439 Speaker 3: able to cash in those opportunities, and he's shown in 1940 01:28:28,479 --> 01:28:30,240 Speaker 3: the past two years that he certainly can do it. 1941 01:28:30,439 --> 01:28:32,880 Speaker 3: That's why I think he continues to stack on top 1942 01:28:32,880 --> 01:28:34,240 Speaker 3: of the numbers he's already put up. 1943 01:28:34,920 --> 01:28:37,400 Speaker 2: I'm shocked that he's in your list. I am, and look, 1944 01:28:37,479 --> 01:28:39,320 Speaker 2: I think here's the guy, and maybe I'm mistaken, but 1945 01:28:39,560 --> 01:28:41,200 Speaker 2: when I watched him on hand knocks, wasn't he a 1946 01:28:41,240 --> 01:28:42,720 Speaker 2: guy that had a little bit of a chip on 1947 01:28:42,760 --> 01:28:45,000 Speaker 2: his shoulder? Where he was drafted in the draft? 1948 01:28:45,600 --> 01:28:48,120 Speaker 3: Absolutely, and he should. He was drafted in the fourth round. 1949 01:28:48,320 --> 01:28:52,719 Speaker 3: And then when you think about when you think about 1950 01:28:52,920 --> 01:28:55,559 Speaker 3: just the people that were taking ahead of him. He 1951 01:28:55,680 --> 01:28:58,400 Speaker 3: was disrespected in terms of that, and so that chip 1952 01:28:58,800 --> 01:29:01,120 Speaker 3: shows up every time he's steps onto the field. He 1953 01:29:02,000 --> 01:29:04,240 Speaker 3: is highly motivated to prove the people that he shouldn't 1954 01:29:04,240 --> 01:29:05,320 Speaker 3: have been a Day three pick. 1955 01:29:06,000 --> 01:29:07,760 Speaker 4: And I think we've seen that in his play. 1956 01:29:08,160 --> 01:29:10,759 Speaker 2: Your back to back seasons one hundred catches a thousand yards, 1957 01:29:10,880 --> 01:29:14,400 Speaker 2: and I tell you what he's making GoF look pretty good. 1958 01:29:14,760 --> 01:29:17,559 Speaker 2: He really is. I mean, I think Gov you know, honestly, 1959 01:29:17,600 --> 01:29:19,800 Speaker 2: before he got the big deal, before Detroit had all 1960 01:29:19,800 --> 01:29:22,679 Speaker 2: that success last year, I thought he was a quarterback, 1961 01:29:22,720 --> 01:29:25,800 Speaker 2: a functionable quarterback, not a superstar. I still don't think 1962 01:29:25,800 --> 01:29:27,800 Speaker 2: he's a superstar. I don't think he's a Hall of Famer, 1963 01:29:27,840 --> 01:29:33,560 Speaker 2: but I think guys like Brown have raised his valuability. 1964 01:29:33,640 --> 01:29:37,080 Speaker 2: I guess you'd call it it makes him a better quarterback, because, 1965 01:29:37,200 --> 01:29:40,160 Speaker 2: as I say, sometimes the receiver makes the quarterback. Sometimes 1966 01:29:40,200 --> 01:29:42,599 Speaker 2: it's vice versa. But I think that Brown has made 1967 01:29:42,680 --> 01:29:46,200 Speaker 2: Golf a better quarterback. I really believe that. Maybe I'm wrong, but. 1968 01:29:46,800 --> 01:29:48,439 Speaker 4: He absolutely he has done it. 1969 01:29:49,160 --> 01:29:52,599 Speaker 3: Look man like, there's nothing like having a dependable option 1970 01:29:52,840 --> 01:29:55,040 Speaker 3: on the perimeter. And when you have someone who is 1971 01:29:55,080 --> 01:29:57,200 Speaker 3: a high Q player like a mam Ra Saint Brown. 1972 01:29:57,520 --> 01:30:00,200 Speaker 3: It frees the quarterback up to be able to do 1973 01:30:00,280 --> 01:30:02,600 Speaker 3: different things because they can be on the same wavelength. 1974 01:30:02,640 --> 01:30:05,639 Speaker 3: They can finish each other's sentences. Amar Ra Saint Brown 1975 01:30:05,960 --> 01:30:09,400 Speaker 3: can do that. He's worthy of being able to not 1976 01:30:09,439 --> 01:30:11,960 Speaker 3: only get into the thirty million dollar club, but he's 1977 01:30:12,160 --> 01:30:14,720 Speaker 3: worthy of being in consideration for this list because this 1978 01:30:14,800 --> 01:30:17,400 Speaker 3: dude has back to back seasons with one hundred catches 1979 01:30:17,479 --> 01:30:19,720 Speaker 3: and a thousand yards and he's going to continue to 1980 01:30:19,760 --> 01:30:23,080 Speaker 3: do that as the weapons around him improved. Jameson Williams 1981 01:30:23,120 --> 01:30:24,960 Speaker 3: and some of the other guys that they have is 1982 01:30:25,000 --> 01:30:27,519 Speaker 3: only going to loosen the coverage up to allow him 1983 01:30:27,560 --> 01:30:28,280 Speaker 3: to go crazy. 1984 01:30:28,800 --> 01:30:30,559 Speaker 2: I want to ask you a permission. When I called 1985 01:30:30,600 --> 01:30:33,759 Speaker 2: his mother this week, I mentioned your name because obviously 1986 01:30:33,760 --> 01:30:36,160 Speaker 2: you have the cloud. I don't want to say I'm 1987 01:30:36,200 --> 01:30:38,439 Speaker 2: calling for a Bucky Brooks who want to get on 1988 01:30:38,560 --> 01:30:40,680 Speaker 2: Bucky's show on Sunday? Can I do that? 1989 01:30:41,439 --> 01:30:43,120 Speaker 4: I mean, if you want to. I don't know if 1990 01:30:43,120 --> 01:30:45,280 Speaker 4: they can remember saying anything, but sure, throw my name 1991 01:30:45,400 --> 01:30:45,680 Speaker 4: up there. 1992 01:30:45,760 --> 01:30:47,439 Speaker 2: Want to say, if Bucky told me so, I'm playing 1993 01:30:47,479 --> 01:30:50,000 Speaker 2: high school. We have a show on Sunday. And I'm 1994 01:30:50,040 --> 01:30:52,880 Speaker 2: calling it beheaf of Bucky Brooks. Perfect. That's what we'll do. 1995 01:30:53,120 --> 01:30:55,559 Speaker 2: I'm going to call I may even call today, I 1996 01:30:55,600 --> 01:30:57,160 Speaker 2: may call this after that, we'll see. I don't know. 1997 01:30:57,360 --> 01:31:00,800 Speaker 2: Number three. You got Justin Jefferson obviously the highest paid 1998 01:31:00,840 --> 01:31:03,960 Speaker 2: pass catcher in the league. Unbelievable. But who's going to 1999 01:31:04,040 --> 01:31:05,880 Speaker 2: be his quarterback? That's the question. 2000 01:31:09,200 --> 01:31:13,240 Speaker 3: That question Sam Donald's probably Sam Donald's gonna be the quarterback. 2001 01:31:13,360 --> 01:31:17,840 Speaker 3: And uh, Sam Donald's going is going to find a 2002 01:31:17,880 --> 01:31:20,800 Speaker 3: way to kind of force feed the ball to Justin 2003 01:31:20,880 --> 01:31:23,200 Speaker 3: Jefferson because when in doubt, you're gonna throw it to 2004 01:31:23,240 --> 01:31:25,559 Speaker 3: your top player. Kevin O'Connell does a really good job 2005 01:31:25,640 --> 01:31:29,080 Speaker 3: of crafting the offense to generate and create big plays 2006 01:31:29,080 --> 01:31:30,200 Speaker 3: for Justin Jefferson. 2007 01:31:30,360 --> 01:31:32,160 Speaker 4: Now it's just a matter of Sam Donald getting them 2008 01:31:32,160 --> 01:31:32,479 Speaker 4: the ball. 2009 01:31:32,760 --> 01:31:35,200 Speaker 3: I believe he has an opportunity because it takes a 2010 01:31:35,240 --> 01:31:37,479 Speaker 3: few different things. It takes not only a creative play 2011 01:31:37,520 --> 01:31:40,760 Speaker 3: caller to give you opportunities by designing plays that put 2012 01:31:40,840 --> 01:31:43,800 Speaker 3: you in the right spot, but it also takes a 2013 01:31:43,840 --> 01:31:46,120 Speaker 3: bit of an offense that has to operate a little 2014 01:31:46,160 --> 01:31:49,559 Speaker 3: more of a one dimensional approach. The Vikings are going 2015 01:31:49,600 --> 01:31:51,640 Speaker 3: to have to throw it. I don't know how effectively 2016 01:31:51,640 --> 01:31:53,479 Speaker 3: they're gonna be running it. And so that's going to 2017 01:31:53,479 --> 01:31:56,120 Speaker 3: give Justin Jefferson enough opportunities to maybe get to two thousand. 2018 01:31:56,640 --> 01:31:59,200 Speaker 2: All right, I mean you you did your HOMEWORKID it's 2019 01:31:59,200 --> 01:32:01,800 Speaker 2: all doubt my mom, because you got names that I 2020 01:32:01,960 --> 01:32:03,920 Speaker 2: never would have thought it would be in the top five. 2021 01:32:04,200 --> 01:32:07,000 Speaker 2: He got number four, George Pickens from the Steelers. Again, 2022 01:32:07,400 --> 01:32:10,840 Speaker 2: I think perhaps Russell Wilson and he could hook up. 2023 01:32:11,080 --> 01:32:13,200 Speaker 2: I don't think Justin Fields is gonna be the starting quarterback. 2024 01:32:13,200 --> 01:32:15,559 Speaker 2: I'm sure Russell Wilson is the guy unless he gets hurt. 2025 01:32:17,000 --> 01:32:20,120 Speaker 4: Uh yeah. Look, so here's the thing. 2026 01:32:20,240 --> 01:32:21,960 Speaker 3: We could go chalk and I could have listed everyone 2027 01:32:22,000 --> 01:32:23,639 Speaker 3: that finished in the top five last year. I could 2028 01:32:23,640 --> 01:32:26,160 Speaker 3: have said, oh, ceedee, Lamb's gonna be that. AJ Brown's 2029 01:32:26,160 --> 01:32:27,400 Speaker 3: gonna be that. But what fun is that? 2030 01:32:28,920 --> 01:32:29,160 Speaker 2: Chase? 2031 01:32:31,400 --> 01:32:33,040 Speaker 4: Well, you got t Higgins on the other side. 2032 01:32:33,400 --> 01:32:36,040 Speaker 3: Let's see which guys are in passing games that almost 2033 01:32:36,240 --> 01:32:39,000 Speaker 3: make them be the sole option when it comes time 2034 01:32:39,080 --> 01:32:41,360 Speaker 3: to throw. So George Pickens goes in there. And the 2035 01:32:41,400 --> 01:32:43,000 Speaker 3: reason why is you go back and you look at 2036 01:32:43,040 --> 01:32:45,320 Speaker 3: the past. Think about AJ Brown when he was with 2037 01:32:45,600 --> 01:32:47,559 Speaker 3: Arthur Smith and how they ran the football, but there 2038 01:32:47,640 --> 01:32:49,400 Speaker 3: was really one target on the perimeter. It was him 2039 01:32:49,400 --> 01:32:51,720 Speaker 3: and John new Smith throwing off play action. When I 2040 01:32:51,760 --> 01:32:53,880 Speaker 3: look at George Pickens, George Pickens for his career has 2041 01:32:53,880 --> 01:32:57,120 Speaker 3: averaged almost seventeen yards of catch. Last season he averaged 2042 01:32:57,160 --> 01:32:59,719 Speaker 3: eighteen yards of catch. And just think about the quarterbacks 2043 01:32:59,720 --> 01:33:02,360 Speaker 3: that he play with. Well, now you've removed a passing 2044 01:33:02,439 --> 01:33:04,200 Speaker 3: game option in Deontay Johnson. 2045 01:33:04,800 --> 01:33:05,840 Speaker 4: Who else is. 2046 01:33:05,920 --> 01:33:09,240 Speaker 3: Russell Wilson going to target besides George Pickens? Because of that, 2047 01:33:09,760 --> 01:33:11,640 Speaker 3: I think he gets more balls and they're gonna be 2048 01:33:11,720 --> 01:33:14,360 Speaker 3: impactful because the running game is really gonna make it 2049 01:33:14,439 --> 01:33:16,479 Speaker 3: difficult for teams to double George Pickens. 2050 01:33:16,920 --> 01:33:18,519 Speaker 4: I expect him to have a huge year. 2051 01:33:18,600 --> 01:33:20,479 Speaker 3: Whether he gets to two thousand or nine, he is 2052 01:33:20,600 --> 01:33:22,599 Speaker 3: going to be in that fourteen to fifteen hundred yard 2053 01:33:22,640 --> 01:33:25,320 Speaker 3: category because he's a special playmaker and now he is 2054 01:33:25,400 --> 01:33:27,960 Speaker 3: the number one receiver on a team that desperately needs 2055 01:33:28,000 --> 01:33:29,000 Speaker 3: him to play at a high level. 2056 01:33:29,240 --> 01:33:31,080 Speaker 2: Okay, Buckey bar So I'm gonna come back and challenge 2057 01:33:31,080 --> 01:33:32,719 Speaker 2: you on that. You're right, who else is you gonna 2058 01:33:32,760 --> 01:33:34,840 Speaker 2: throw to? So other teams defensive coordinators are going to 2059 01:33:34,920 --> 01:33:37,280 Speaker 2: know that they'll double them. They'll double team them, right, 2060 01:33:37,760 --> 01:33:40,240 Speaker 2: I mean, won't they do that. He's a star receiver. 2061 01:33:40,960 --> 01:33:43,800 Speaker 2: They'll they'll play zone on it. They'll just make a 2062 01:33:43,880 --> 01:33:44,800 Speaker 2: really tough for him. 2063 01:33:44,760 --> 01:33:45,040 Speaker 11: To do it. 2064 01:33:45,880 --> 01:33:48,720 Speaker 3: So I'm gambling that the fact, Okay, you can double him, 2065 01:33:48,760 --> 01:33:50,559 Speaker 3: so you remove somebody from the box with what if 2066 01:33:50,680 --> 01:33:54,120 Speaker 3: Najee Harris and Jalen One are going crazy running the football? 2067 01:33:54,479 --> 01:33:57,000 Speaker 3: Can you continue to double when Arthur Smith is so 2068 01:33:57,160 --> 01:34:00,439 Speaker 3: good and so persistent at running the ball. I'm saying 2069 01:34:00,560 --> 01:34:03,280 Speaker 3: that George Pakins is going to end up getting more 2070 01:34:03,360 --> 01:34:05,800 Speaker 3: one on one opportunities because they're going to throw on 2071 01:34:05,960 --> 01:34:08,920 Speaker 3: obvious rundowns and those throws are not going to be 2072 01:34:09,040 --> 01:34:11,240 Speaker 3: nickel and dimers. They're gonna push the ball down the 2073 01:34:11,280 --> 01:34:15,280 Speaker 3: field because that's what Russell Wilson does. George Pickens is 2074 01:34:15,360 --> 01:34:18,559 Speaker 3: not DK Metcalf, but he has some DK Metcalf qualities 2075 01:34:18,640 --> 01:34:20,639 Speaker 3: in terms of being able to be a vertical stretch guy. 2076 01:34:20,960 --> 01:34:23,759 Speaker 3: Think about the success that Russell Wilson had with DK Metcalf. 2077 01:34:24,320 --> 01:34:26,200 Speaker 3: I think they replicate that in the Still City. 2078 01:34:26,400 --> 01:34:28,400 Speaker 2: Okay, he's the number four. If I may ask, how 2079 01:34:28,479 --> 01:34:29,800 Speaker 2: tall is George pickers. I don't know. 2080 01:34:30,400 --> 01:34:33,000 Speaker 4: He's a sixty three sixty four years. He's a tall receiver. Yeah, 2081 01:34:33,080 --> 01:34:35,559 Speaker 4: he's big. That's good, fast and physical. 2082 01:34:35,880 --> 01:34:37,680 Speaker 2: So I'll see him when he comes to Cincinnati. That's 2083 01:34:37,720 --> 01:34:40,720 Speaker 2: for sure. Number five, No surprise here. Really on the 2084 01:34:40,760 --> 01:34:43,240 Speaker 2: Cleveland Browns, he's the number one guy. I'mari Cooper, he 2085 01:34:43,360 --> 01:34:46,639 Speaker 2: really is, and he's gonna. I guess this guy want 2086 01:34:46,640 --> 01:34:48,679 Speaker 2: all of a sudden done hill off every receiving record 2087 01:34:48,880 --> 01:34:52,840 Speaker 2: in the Cleveland Browns record book, I think so. 2088 01:34:53,200 --> 01:34:55,280 Speaker 3: I mean, now, I can't say that it's been a 2089 01:34:55,320 --> 01:34:58,040 Speaker 3: glorious history for Cleveland Browns, even though the legendary Paul 2090 01:34:58,080 --> 01:35:01,479 Speaker 3: Warfield played there. But I get you're saying a MARII 2091 01:35:01,560 --> 01:35:04,200 Speaker 3: Cooper is in a unique situation. He's in a unique 2092 01:35:04,200 --> 01:35:06,400 Speaker 3: situation because the numbers he's been able to put up 2093 01:35:06,439 --> 01:35:09,439 Speaker 3: without an established quarterback. I mean, you just think about 2094 01:35:09,479 --> 01:35:12,240 Speaker 3: the guys that have played quarterbacks since he has been there. 2095 01:35:12,280 --> 01:35:14,080 Speaker 3: It's been a revolving door. And then you get to 2096 01:35:14,120 --> 01:35:17,280 Speaker 3: Sean Watson, who looking I'm not saying it's a make 2097 01:35:17,360 --> 01:35:19,200 Speaker 3: it or breaking year, but he has to kind of 2098 01:35:19,280 --> 01:35:20,960 Speaker 3: prove it's been two years. They haven't really got a 2099 01:35:21,040 --> 01:35:22,639 Speaker 3: bang of return on an investment. 2100 01:35:22,720 --> 01:35:23,360 Speaker 4: He has to do it. 2101 01:35:23,479 --> 01:35:27,000 Speaker 3: And I think, look at the numbers that Stefon Diggs 2102 01:35:27,040 --> 01:35:30,840 Speaker 3: put up with in Ken Dorsey's offense. You think about 2103 01:35:30,880 --> 01:35:33,960 Speaker 3: Stepun Diggs racking up stupid numbers as the focal point. 2104 01:35:34,320 --> 01:35:35,960 Speaker 4: Amari Cooper now becomes that guy. 2105 01:35:36,080 --> 01:35:37,599 Speaker 3: He's been able to get back to back one thousand 2106 01:35:37,640 --> 01:35:41,519 Speaker 3: years seasons since coming over, Those numbers explode because they 2107 01:35:41,600 --> 01:35:44,280 Speaker 3: also have other options that will prevent you from double teaming. 2108 01:35:44,320 --> 01:35:46,599 Speaker 3: You think about David and Joku to run a game 2109 01:35:46,640 --> 01:35:51,600 Speaker 3: with Nick Chubb, Jerry Judy coming over, more opportunities, not 2110 01:35:51,760 --> 01:35:55,200 Speaker 3: his restricted coverage that he's facing. Marik Cooper should benefit 2111 01:35:55,280 --> 01:35:56,000 Speaker 3: from all of those things. 2112 01:35:56,640 --> 01:35:59,680 Speaker 2: What impresses me most about your top five list is 2113 01:35:59,760 --> 01:36:02,479 Speaker 2: at is nearly only one quarterback on that list. I 2114 01:36:02,640 --> 01:36:05,360 Speaker 2: really and truly his head and shoulders above everybody else. 2115 01:36:05,360 --> 01:36:08,720 Speaker 2: And that's Tua. You know, Jared Goff perhaps maybe I 2116 01:36:08,800 --> 01:36:12,000 Speaker 2: don't know, but every other receiver on this list is 2117 01:36:12,120 --> 01:36:15,160 Speaker 2: working with I would have to say a B a 2118 01:36:15,280 --> 01:36:17,840 Speaker 2: B list quarterback, would you agree? I think that's what 2119 01:36:18,000 --> 01:36:21,120 Speaker 2: it is. And in Minnesota, really and truly you don't 2120 01:36:21,120 --> 01:36:23,560 Speaker 2: even know who the quarterback Sam Donald really, come on, 2121 01:36:23,680 --> 01:36:27,120 Speaker 2: he's a band aid until I get a quarterback. 2122 01:36:27,200 --> 01:36:29,599 Speaker 4: Really, he is a band aid. 2123 01:36:29,720 --> 01:36:31,880 Speaker 3: But that's okay though, And the reason why it's okay 2124 01:36:32,000 --> 01:36:35,439 Speaker 3: you kind of want those situations. When you think about 2125 01:36:35,520 --> 01:36:37,880 Speaker 3: how someone is going to put up numbers at the 2126 01:36:37,960 --> 01:36:40,639 Speaker 3: highest level, you have to be a little more dependent 2127 01:36:41,080 --> 01:36:43,360 Speaker 3: upon that wide receiver. It reminds me, and this is 2128 01:36:43,400 --> 01:36:45,000 Speaker 3: before I got the Green Bay, but it reminds me 2129 01:36:45,040 --> 01:36:46,760 Speaker 3: of Brett Favan its early days when he had. 2130 01:36:46,720 --> 01:36:47,960 Speaker 4: Sterling Sharp on the perimeter. 2131 01:36:48,200 --> 01:36:50,760 Speaker 3: And I know our younger listeners won't know or really 2132 01:36:50,760 --> 01:36:53,280 Speaker 3: appreciate what Sterling Sharp was, but back in that time, 2133 01:36:53,400 --> 01:36:55,920 Speaker 3: early nineties, it was unheard of for a wide receiver 2134 01:36:56,000 --> 01:36:58,200 Speaker 3: to catch over one hundred balls. I think Sterling did 2135 01:36:58,240 --> 01:37:01,640 Speaker 3: it in either two or three years consecutively because he 2136 01:37:01,920 --> 01:37:03,720 Speaker 3: was the number one option and there was no one 2137 01:37:03,800 --> 01:37:07,599 Speaker 3: else on the perimeter. Some of these situations are very 2138 01:37:07,680 --> 01:37:10,559 Speaker 3: similar to that. That's why I'm banking on those guys, 2139 01:37:10,640 --> 01:37:12,720 Speaker 3: just because they will get so many artmitunities, so many 2140 01:37:12,760 --> 01:37:14,880 Speaker 3: targets with the ball head in their direction. 2141 01:37:15,520 --> 01:37:18,320 Speaker 2: I would be really impressed. I mean, honestly, if guys 2142 01:37:18,360 --> 01:37:22,000 Speaker 2: with these kind of Class B quarterbacks, it breaks, some 2143 01:37:22,120 --> 01:37:24,360 Speaker 2: were shot at some sort of records, because that would 2144 01:37:24,360 --> 01:37:26,640 Speaker 2: tell me how good they really are. I mean, you know, 2145 01:37:26,720 --> 01:37:28,840 Speaker 2: in Pittsburgh, I mean you got Russell Wilson. I mean, 2146 01:37:29,000 --> 01:37:31,799 Speaker 2: I think it's a good situation. But the Minnesota situation, 2147 01:37:31,880 --> 01:37:34,160 Speaker 2: that's gonna be tough. I mean, Jefferson's a great receiver, 2148 01:37:34,280 --> 01:37:37,320 Speaker 2: but you know, I'm not so certain Sam Donald's the guy. 2149 01:37:37,800 --> 01:37:40,400 Speaker 2: I just don't I don't know see what happens over there. 2150 01:37:40,520 --> 01:37:43,519 Speaker 2: And they're not crying much. I mean, when Kirk Cousins left, 2151 01:37:44,080 --> 01:37:46,360 Speaker 2: there wasn't a big outcry of like you know, wow, 2152 01:37:46,479 --> 01:37:49,479 Speaker 2: Wowie's me. It's like, okay, life goes on, right. I mean, 2153 01:37:49,800 --> 01:37:52,200 Speaker 2: and they didn't even try to trade or do anything 2154 01:37:52,240 --> 01:37:54,000 Speaker 2: at all. They get a quarter, is it too late? 2155 01:37:54,080 --> 01:37:56,599 Speaker 2: I mean, they're just going with Sam Donald, right. 2156 01:37:57,520 --> 01:38:01,400 Speaker 3: They are just going with Sam dar And that's okay 2157 01:38:01,479 --> 01:38:05,080 Speaker 3: for now, because with Sam Donald you have a veteran 2158 01:38:05,160 --> 01:38:07,400 Speaker 3: who is kind of used to playing his role in 2159 01:38:07,600 --> 01:38:11,799 Speaker 3: understanding those things. But there's a sentiment in Minnesota, particularly 2160 01:38:11,800 --> 01:38:14,120 Speaker 3: with Kevin O'Connell, that they can get the most out 2161 01:38:14,160 --> 01:38:16,240 Speaker 3: of Sam Donald, that he just needed the rite system 2162 01:38:16,280 --> 01:38:19,200 Speaker 3: to right opportunity. He certainly has a supporting cast around him. 2163 01:38:19,280 --> 01:38:20,920 Speaker 3: He just has to play within the system and see 2164 01:38:20,960 --> 01:38:22,960 Speaker 3: if the production can come all right. 2165 01:38:23,080 --> 01:38:27,600 Speaker 2: Last, but not least, on your column on Friday, you 2166 01:38:27,720 --> 01:38:32,120 Speaker 2: say Max Crosby defensive player of the year. Can't argue that. 2167 01:38:32,320 --> 01:38:34,519 Speaker 2: I mean, who else is up there? Who else did 2168 01:38:34,560 --> 01:38:36,280 Speaker 2: you have in mind? I mean, he's got to be the. 2169 01:38:36,320 --> 01:38:38,559 Speaker 3: Guy, right Well, I mean I think he has an 2170 01:38:38,600 --> 01:38:40,559 Speaker 3: opportunity just because of this. You look at the last 2171 01:38:40,560 --> 01:38:42,360 Speaker 3: two years how successful he's been. I want to say 2172 01:38:42,360 --> 01:38:45,040 Speaker 3: it's twenty six and a half sacks that he's had 2173 01:38:45,520 --> 01:38:50,719 Speaker 3: playing under Patrick Graham. You now look at them bringing 2174 01:38:50,800 --> 01:38:55,400 Speaker 3: over Christin Wilkins to put a big time disruptive player 2175 01:38:55,560 --> 01:38:58,840 Speaker 3: beside him. That will lead to more one on one 2176 01:38:58,920 --> 01:39:03,479 Speaker 3: situations seeing him just kind of outwork opponents on the perimeter. 2177 01:39:03,560 --> 01:39:05,559 Speaker 3: He's energized the bunny when it comes to that stuff. 2178 01:39:05,800 --> 01:39:07,599 Speaker 3: But if he gets more one on one opportunities, that's 2179 01:39:07,640 --> 01:39:09,720 Speaker 3: gonna lead to more disruptive plays. And he gets more 2180 01:39:09,760 --> 01:39:12,519 Speaker 3: disruptive plays for a team that has a high profile 2181 01:39:12,640 --> 01:39:15,280 Speaker 3: like the Raiders. Yeah, that's gonna put him in the conversation. 2182 01:39:15,400 --> 01:39:18,960 Speaker 3: Last year he finished fourth, the numbers should improve this year. 2183 01:39:19,160 --> 01:39:21,000 Speaker 3: That that's why he has a chance to get it done. 2184 01:39:21,360 --> 01:39:22,759 Speaker 2: I know, all you have to see is the statue 2185 01:39:22,840 --> 01:39:25,640 Speaker 2: let down there. Fifty two sacks, eighty eight tackles for 2186 01:39:25,760 --> 01:39:29,280 Speaker 2: losses in eighty three career games. Pretty good. That's pretty 2187 01:39:29,360 --> 01:39:31,519 Speaker 2: dunk good really, So you know, if he's not the 2188 01:39:31,520 --> 01:39:33,960 Speaker 2: defensive player of the year, I like to see who is. 2189 01:39:34,000 --> 01:39:35,599 Speaker 2: And he's got to be at least in the top three. 2190 01:39:35,760 --> 01:39:38,160 Speaker 2: So it's a pretty good call on that. All right, 2191 01:39:38,240 --> 01:39:40,120 Speaker 2: we move on. That's pretty good. I like to receive 2192 01:39:40,160 --> 01:39:42,720 Speaker 2: a situation because you didn't take the easy way out, 2193 01:39:43,000 --> 01:39:44,559 Speaker 2: you know. I mean, you could have wrote Jamar Chase 2194 01:39:44,600 --> 01:39:46,639 Speaker 2: down there. You could have wrote all the big time receivers, 2195 01:39:46,680 --> 01:39:48,680 Speaker 2: but you didn't. He wrote the guys that really and 2196 01:39:48,760 --> 01:39:51,240 Speaker 2: truly could blossom. I mean, say, I want to see 2197 01:39:51,280 --> 01:39:54,000 Speaker 2: Saint Brown do that, and hopefully we'll get him on. 2198 01:39:54,120 --> 01:39:55,680 Speaker 2: If we don't get him on, we'll get his mom on. 2199 01:39:55,800 --> 01:39:56,120 Speaker 2: How's that? 2200 01:39:56,800 --> 01:39:57,759 Speaker 4: How about that? That works? 2201 01:39:57,960 --> 01:40:00,320 Speaker 2: All right? We should have got around from others. That's 2202 01:40:00,320 --> 01:40:02,080 Speaker 2: what we should have done. We move on, all right. 2203 01:40:02,200 --> 01:40:04,240 Speaker 2: He's Bucky Brooks. I'm Andy Furman. Give us on Twitter 2204 01:40:04,280 --> 01:40:07,519 Speaker 2: at Bucky Brooks at Andy Furman FSR. Eight seven, seven 2205 01:40:07,960 --> 01:40:10,320 Speaker 2: ninety nine on Fox eight seven, seven, nine nine six 2206 01:40:10,800 --> 01:40:13,519 Speaker 2: sixty three sixty nine. We've got the blame game, the 2207 01:40:13,720 --> 01:40:16,680 Speaker 2: blame game in this hour. There's no doubt about that. 2208 01:40:16,800 --> 01:40:19,040 Speaker 2: We got the blame game in this hour. Okay, Now 2209 01:40:19,880 --> 01:40:26,400 Speaker 2: please check his resume, please, that's next. Is he qualified? Well, 2210 01:40:26,479 --> 01:40:29,839 Speaker 2: that's right around the corner. He is, Bucky Brooks, He's qualified. 2211 01:40:29,880 --> 01:40:33,160 Speaker 2: I'm Andy Furman. We are Fox Sports Sunday on Fox 2212 01:40:33,200 --> 01:40:35,519 Speaker 2: Sports Radio on a Father's Day Sunday, and we're live 2213 01:40:35,760 --> 01:40:39,519 Speaker 2: from the Tireraq dot com studios. And I asked the question, Bucky, 2214 01:40:39,640 --> 01:40:43,800 Speaker 2: is he qualified? I'm talking about JJ Reddick. Okay, talk 2215 01:40:43,840 --> 01:40:46,479 Speaker 2: about this Los Angeles Lakers mess, and it really is 2216 01:40:46,560 --> 01:40:48,800 Speaker 2: a mess. I mean the Dan Hurley thing. He never 2217 01:40:48,960 --> 01:40:50,200 Speaker 2: was going to go, and we'll tell you why in 2218 01:40:50,280 --> 01:40:52,800 Speaker 2: about ten minutes why he turned them down. And they 2219 01:40:52,880 --> 01:40:55,479 Speaker 2: got family there for sure, and his dad's from Jersey 2220 01:40:55,880 --> 01:40:58,599 Speaker 2: Hall of Fame coach in high school in New Jersey, 2221 01:40:58,680 --> 01:41:00,640 Speaker 2: and his wife didn't want to go. Those are all 2222 01:41:00,640 --> 01:41:02,479 Speaker 2: the reasons. But we've got some real reasons why he 2223 01:41:02,520 --> 01:41:04,439 Speaker 2: probably didn't want to go, and living on the coast. 2224 01:41:04,479 --> 01:41:09,160 Speaker 2: But this JJ Reddick thing about he's the ESPN NBA analyst. 2225 01:41:09,520 --> 01:41:12,040 Speaker 2: He played in the NBA for fifteen years. Here like 2226 01:41:12,080 --> 01:41:14,639 Speaker 2: a ninety plus minute meeting and visit with the Lakers 2227 01:41:14,920 --> 01:41:16,720 Speaker 2: about a month ago, and they said this weekend he 2228 01:41:16,840 --> 01:41:20,120 Speaker 2: was going to visit again for the Lakers head coaching job. 2229 01:41:20,560 --> 01:41:24,559 Speaker 2: My question is this, This guy JJ Reddick never coached. 2230 01:41:24,920 --> 01:41:28,120 Speaker 2: He never coached youth basketball, never coached in high school, 2231 01:41:28,360 --> 01:41:31,400 Speaker 2: never coached in college. Okay, So to compare her that, 2232 01:41:31,520 --> 01:41:34,320 Speaker 2: Dan Hurley's a joke. Dan Hurleys went back to back 2233 01:41:34,560 --> 01:41:38,120 Speaker 2: NCAA titles at the University of Connecticut. He won Wagner 2234 01:41:38,240 --> 01:41:42,080 Speaker 2: College in Staten Island, New York, a lowly Division I school, 2235 01:41:42,320 --> 01:41:45,200 Speaker 2: and Dan Hurley won when he coached at Stanton Island's 2236 01:41:45,400 --> 01:41:49,240 Speaker 2: Wagner College, same college with PJ. Carlislimo coach. Okay, So 2237 01:41:49,439 --> 01:41:52,120 Speaker 2: why does JJ Reddick get a shot to coach the 2238 01:41:52,320 --> 01:41:57,920 Speaker 2: LA Lakers with no visible recommendation, no visible success story 2239 01:41:57,960 --> 01:42:00,280 Speaker 2: as a coach. I don't get it. Why don't you apply? 2240 01:42:00,680 --> 01:42:02,920 Speaker 2: I'm gonna send the letter to the Lakers saying Bucky 2241 01:42:02,960 --> 01:42:05,280 Speaker 2: Brooks should be the head coach of the Lakers. Really, 2242 01:42:05,840 --> 01:42:07,599 Speaker 2: why is he getting a job at the Lakers. 2243 01:42:08,320 --> 01:42:10,280 Speaker 3: I mean, it's the same reason Steve Kerr got a job. 2244 01:42:10,560 --> 01:42:13,240 Speaker 3: It worked out well for Steve Kerr after he learned 2245 01:42:13,280 --> 01:42:15,439 Speaker 3: some lessons as a general manager where he flopped and 2246 01:42:15,960 --> 01:42:18,639 Speaker 3: with the Phoenix Suns he made his way to the bench. 2247 01:42:18,720 --> 01:42:22,519 Speaker 3: He didn't have any coaching experience and it worked. I 2248 01:42:22,600 --> 01:42:26,560 Speaker 3: think a lot of it can be alleviated by you 2249 01:42:26,640 --> 01:42:29,599 Speaker 3: got to trust the person. If you trust the person 2250 01:42:29,680 --> 01:42:32,320 Speaker 3: that JJ Reddick can figure it out, then what you 2251 01:42:32,400 --> 01:42:35,439 Speaker 3: can do is you always can surround him with veteran 2252 01:42:35,520 --> 01:42:37,720 Speaker 3: assistants that know how to do the day to day 2253 01:42:37,800 --> 01:42:38,800 Speaker 3: parts of the job. 2254 01:42:39,280 --> 01:42:41,280 Speaker 4: JJ redd has been in the league for a long time. 2255 01:42:41,640 --> 01:42:44,719 Speaker 3: JJ Redick has played for great coaches throughout his career, 2256 01:42:44,880 --> 01:42:47,280 Speaker 3: starting in college and then working his way through the pros. 2257 01:42:47,680 --> 01:42:50,559 Speaker 3: JJ Reddick knows what goodball looks like. And I will 2258 01:42:50,640 --> 01:42:55,439 Speaker 3: say this, there's a belief that players that were not 2259 01:42:55,720 --> 01:42:59,320 Speaker 3: A level players, but B level players are better equipped 2260 01:42:59,320 --> 01:43:02,920 Speaker 3: to coach because because they couldn't skip steps along the 2261 01:43:03,000 --> 01:43:05,960 Speaker 3: way to carve out a career. JJ Reddick can take 2262 01:43:06,080 --> 01:43:09,600 Speaker 3: all of those experiences and craft plans and do the 2263 01:43:09,680 --> 01:43:12,040 Speaker 3: strategy and the management part of the piece to be 2264 01:43:12,160 --> 01:43:15,800 Speaker 3: a successful coach. I wouldn't say that the Lakers are 2265 01:43:15,840 --> 01:43:18,599 Speaker 3: the best fit for him just given the profile, because 2266 01:43:19,080 --> 01:43:22,599 Speaker 3: his mistakes, his growing pains will be magnified because everyone 2267 01:43:23,120 --> 01:43:25,519 Speaker 3: views them as a blue blood franchise in their watch. 2268 01:43:25,840 --> 01:43:28,320 Speaker 3: But if he was somewhere else, we're kind of working 2269 01:43:28,439 --> 01:43:31,280 Speaker 3: through some of those things, like not saying that Orlando 2270 01:43:31,520 --> 01:43:33,120 Speaker 3: or Washington of what he could work. 2271 01:43:33,000 --> 01:43:34,840 Speaker 4: Through those things, it would be better. But there's no 2272 01:43:34,920 --> 01:43:36,840 Speaker 4: reason why JJ Reddy couldn't be a coach at the 2273 01:43:36,880 --> 01:43:37,320 Speaker 4: next level. 2274 01:43:37,560 --> 01:43:41,080 Speaker 2: Okay, a couple of things. Number One, I agree with 2275 01:43:41,160 --> 01:43:44,320 Speaker 2: you wholeheartedly because I think that maybe be players in sports, 2276 01:43:44,400 --> 01:43:47,800 Speaker 2: especially in baseball, we say great great managers have been 2277 01:43:48,160 --> 01:43:51,439 Speaker 2: maybe not so great players simply because maybe the great 2278 01:43:51,520 --> 01:43:54,880 Speaker 2: players expect so much, expect players to play as good 2279 01:43:54,920 --> 01:43:57,200 Speaker 2: as they did. I go back to the late Ted Williams. 2280 01:43:57,320 --> 01:44:00,519 Speaker 2: When Ted Williams managed in Washington. Okay, he wasn't really 2281 01:44:00,560 --> 01:44:02,600 Speaker 2: a great manager. Why because I think he demanded so 2282 01:44:02,720 --> 01:44:05,080 Speaker 2: much of players. He thought everybody probably could play like 2283 01:44:05,160 --> 01:44:06,840 Speaker 2: he could. But then again, when I was a kid 2284 01:44:06,880 --> 01:44:09,800 Speaker 2: growing up, Ralph Holp the Major he managed the New 2285 01:44:09,880 --> 01:44:12,439 Speaker 2: York Yankees a great manager. Why he was never a 2286 01:44:12,560 --> 01:44:15,920 Speaker 2: great player, but maybe he learned by watching the game 2287 01:44:16,000 --> 01:44:18,080 Speaker 2: on the bench. You know, So I hear what you're 2288 01:44:18,080 --> 01:44:20,960 Speaker 2: saying on that. That's number one. Number two we're talking 2289 01:44:21,000 --> 01:44:24,919 Speaker 2: about respect. I don't know how Lebron James could respect 2290 01:44:25,040 --> 01:44:27,800 Speaker 2: a JJ Reddick in the huddle, but he JJ Reddick 2291 01:44:27,880 --> 01:44:29,559 Speaker 2: is telling you to do something, and Lebron's and say, 2292 01:44:29,760 --> 01:44:32,840 Speaker 2: wait a minute, you know what are you talking about. 2293 01:44:33,000 --> 01:44:36,120 Speaker 2: You never ran this play, you never caught I can't 2294 01:44:36,160 --> 01:44:39,400 Speaker 2: see that happening. And number three you mentioned early on 2295 01:44:39,560 --> 01:44:43,559 Speaker 2: about how players really buy into coaches like Jim Harbaugh 2296 01:44:44,120 --> 01:44:46,920 Speaker 2: with the Charges. He gets involved with them. He's had 2297 01:44:47,000 --> 01:44:50,000 Speaker 2: success before. JJ Reddick has no success because he's never 2298 01:44:50,080 --> 01:44:53,040 Speaker 2: coached the game. Harbaugh had success, but he coached the 2299 01:44:53,080 --> 01:44:55,880 Speaker 2: forty nine Ers, had tremendous success in Michigan, and he's 2300 01:44:55,920 --> 01:44:58,760 Speaker 2: going to have success with the Chargers. Players buy into that. 2301 01:44:59,160 --> 01:45:03,080 Speaker 2: So I if I'm midter viewing, I get JJ Reddick 2302 01:45:03,080 --> 01:45:07,040 Speaker 2: off my list, especially in LA. I think the critics 2303 01:45:07,040 --> 01:45:10,479 Speaker 2: will go crazy in LA with JJ Reddick as coach. 2304 01:45:11,520 --> 01:45:13,439 Speaker 4: Yeah, I wouldn't. I wouldn't say that. Like here's what 2305 01:45:13,520 --> 01:45:13,960 Speaker 4: I would say. 2306 01:45:14,080 --> 01:45:15,800 Speaker 3: I look at the finals and I look at Jason 2307 01:45:15,880 --> 01:45:18,959 Speaker 3: Kidd being in the finals, and Jason Kidd is a former. 2308 01:45:18,760 --> 01:45:21,519 Speaker 4: Player who went immediately to coaching and he had to work. 2309 01:45:21,439 --> 01:45:23,040 Speaker 2: Through some of those growing but he was an assistant 2310 01:45:23,040 --> 01:45:23,400 Speaker 2: coach too. 2311 01:45:24,880 --> 01:45:26,760 Speaker 4: He started out, I think he was a head coach. 2312 01:45:26,800 --> 01:45:28,360 Speaker 3: I think he might have been a head coach the 2313 01:45:28,479 --> 01:45:30,720 Speaker 3: Nets with the Nats Bucks, and then he's made his 2314 01:45:30,800 --> 01:45:31,960 Speaker 3: way because this is his third. 2315 01:45:31,800 --> 01:45:32,800 Speaker 4: Stop as a head coach. 2316 01:45:33,240 --> 01:45:36,639 Speaker 3: I will say that he had to kind of work 2317 01:45:36,680 --> 01:45:38,120 Speaker 3: through those ground paints and a lot of times it 2318 01:45:38,160 --> 01:45:41,679 Speaker 3: takes the patience. But I wouldn't discount JJ Reddick because 2319 01:45:41,880 --> 01:45:45,120 Speaker 3: the conversation that you mentioned about Lebron James. Lebron James 2320 01:45:45,160 --> 01:45:47,679 Speaker 3: obviously thought enough of JJ Reddick and his basketball mind 2321 01:45:47,720 --> 01:45:49,680 Speaker 3: to do a podcast with him, which is where some 2322 01:45:49,800 --> 01:45:53,559 Speaker 3: of this stuff kind of started from. And players will 2323 01:45:53,640 --> 01:45:57,280 Speaker 3: respect coaches that can help them go to the next level, 2324 01:45:57,600 --> 01:46:00,160 Speaker 3: meaning helped them go to the next level individually where 2325 01:46:00,160 --> 01:46:03,000 Speaker 3: they can get paid more and collectively where they can 2326 01:46:03,040 --> 01:46:05,960 Speaker 3: be a part of a championship team. And those things 2327 01:46:06,360 --> 01:46:08,240 Speaker 3: JJ Reddick can get on the floor, he can lace 2328 01:46:08,280 --> 01:46:09,720 Speaker 3: them to shoes, and he can shoot with the best 2329 01:46:09,800 --> 01:46:12,400 Speaker 3: of them, so they can't question whether he could play 2330 01:46:12,640 --> 01:46:15,000 Speaker 3: or not, so that he can show certain guys how 2331 01:46:15,080 --> 01:46:17,400 Speaker 3: to improve, he can show certain guys how to develop, 2332 01:46:17,640 --> 01:46:20,240 Speaker 3: and then it's about the IQ and the acumen. He 2333 01:46:20,360 --> 01:46:23,880 Speaker 3: has done that, and surrounding himself with the right kind 2334 01:46:23,920 --> 01:46:28,200 Speaker 3: of assistant coaches, older coaches, former head coaches that have 2335 01:46:28,280 --> 01:46:30,360 Speaker 3: been in the league but don't aspire to do that anymore, 2336 01:46:30,760 --> 01:46:34,200 Speaker 3: he certainly can build around that. And the person that 2337 01:46:34,280 --> 01:46:37,360 Speaker 3: he loves to take issue with, I would say Doc Rivers. 2338 01:46:37,720 --> 01:46:39,439 Speaker 3: Doc Rivers has done that for a long time. And 2339 01:46:39,520 --> 01:46:41,559 Speaker 3: say what you want about Doc Rivers. Doc Rivers as 2340 01:46:41,560 --> 01:46:45,680 Speaker 3: a champion. Doc Rivers has won an NBA title, and 2341 01:46:45,840 --> 01:46:50,120 Speaker 3: he has done it with franchise where he's led them 2342 01:46:50,160 --> 01:46:53,280 Speaker 3: to the postseason. Those things. JJ Redick and Doc have 2343 01:46:53,439 --> 01:46:55,720 Speaker 3: these issues. But if he follows Doc rivers blueprint, he 2344 01:46:55,760 --> 01:46:59,000 Speaker 3: certainly can be successful. Get great coaches, great assistants that 2345 01:46:59,040 --> 01:47:02,240 Speaker 3: can help you in the areas where you're not sharp 2346 01:47:02,320 --> 01:47:05,040 Speaker 3: at and then you learn from the experience. But you 2347 01:47:05,080 --> 01:47:07,000 Speaker 3: can't get experience until you have a job. And so 2348 01:47:07,160 --> 01:47:08,680 Speaker 3: this is the opportunity for him to get a job. 2349 01:47:09,160 --> 01:47:10,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, but I think that you hit it on the 2350 01:47:10,800 --> 01:47:14,040 Speaker 2: head when you said that he'd be better served maybe coaching. 2351 01:47:14,640 --> 01:47:16,960 Speaker 2: And the more I hate to use the term desolate area, 2352 01:47:17,080 --> 01:47:22,000 Speaker 2: maybe coaching like a New Orleans, Carolina, someplace who doesn't 2353 01:47:22,040 --> 01:47:26,240 Speaker 2: have that exposure San Antonio. If the man would ever leave, 2354 01:47:26,640 --> 01:47:30,160 Speaker 2: you know in those places, LA's that market's going to 2355 01:47:30,240 --> 01:47:32,559 Speaker 2: be brutal for him. I just don't think you want 2356 01:47:32,600 --> 01:47:35,840 Speaker 2: to start out in LA. You know, Carolina, Salt Lake 2357 01:47:35,920 --> 01:47:39,080 Speaker 2: City in Utah, those are the places I think he 2358 01:47:39,080 --> 01:47:40,080 Speaker 2: should be starting out in. 2359 01:47:41,400 --> 01:47:43,160 Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, like you would help, but like, he's 2360 01:47:43,200 --> 01:47:45,560 Speaker 3: not gonna get that. And so if he's willing to 2361 01:47:45,600 --> 01:47:47,320 Speaker 3: take the job, he has to know what comes with it. 2362 01:47:47,400 --> 01:47:50,040 Speaker 3: He has to be on his game, but ownership also 2363 01:47:50,160 --> 01:47:52,719 Speaker 3: has to have thick skin to deal with the criticism 2364 01:47:52,800 --> 01:47:56,040 Speaker 3: that's gonna come away. So just like your initial take 2365 01:47:56,160 --> 01:47:57,760 Speaker 3: was like, oh my god, he's not qualified to do it, 2366 01:47:57,800 --> 01:47:59,639 Speaker 3: where everyone in LA is going to say the same thing. 2367 01:48:00,080 --> 01:48:01,880 Speaker 3: But Jennie Buss and that staff they got to stand 2368 01:48:01,920 --> 01:48:04,800 Speaker 3: and say, hey, we believe that he's going to grow 2369 01:48:05,360 --> 01:48:08,040 Speaker 3: into the position. We are going to surround him with 2370 01:48:08,200 --> 01:48:10,680 Speaker 3: the best coaching staff that we can put around him, 2371 01:48:11,000 --> 01:48:12,880 Speaker 3: and we're willing to live through some of the rough 2372 01:48:12,960 --> 01:48:15,439 Speaker 3: times to see him get to the other side, and 2373 01:48:15,600 --> 01:48:17,800 Speaker 3: they have to be willing to do that. I don't 2374 01:48:17,840 --> 01:48:20,760 Speaker 3: know if they have the stomach to do it, but 2375 01:48:20,880 --> 01:48:22,559 Speaker 3: if they're willing to do it, that's the only way 2376 01:48:22,600 --> 01:48:23,840 Speaker 3: that JJ Reddick can succeed. 2377 01:48:24,280 --> 01:48:26,280 Speaker 2: Fans will go crazy. And if they hire him, I'm 2378 01:48:26,280 --> 01:48:28,360 Speaker 2: telling you right now, he's Bucket Brooks.

Now. The question 2443 01:51:55,000 --> 01:51:56,960 Speaker 2: is why did Dan Hurley turn it down? Well, it's 2444 01:51:57,000 --> 01:52:00,240 Speaker 2: quite simple because most of these coaches, I say eighty 2445 01:52:00,320 --> 01:52:02,320 Speaker 2: percent of the coaches that have coached college went to 2446 01:52:02,360 --> 01:52:06,240 Speaker 2: the NBA failed. First, I don't have the control a second. 2447 01:52:06,360 --> 01:52:10,400 Speaker 2: Quick peak. Billy Donovan in nineteen years at Florida for 2448 01:52:10,640 --> 01:52:14,600 Speaker 2: sixty seven one eighty six record, fourteen NT DOUBLEA Tournament appearances. 2449 01:52:14,880 --> 01:52:17,360 Speaker 2: Now he's with the Chicago Bulls a record of one 2450 01:52:17,479 --> 01:52:20,320 Speaker 2: fifty six and one sixty two. All right. Rick Bettino 2451 01:52:20,680 --> 01:52:23,360 Speaker 2: four years with the Boston Celtics one oh two, one 2452 01:52:23,479 --> 01:52:27,599 Speaker 2: forty six. John Calla Parry with the Nets, seventy two wins, 2453 01:52:27,600 --> 01:52:30,000 Speaker 2: one hundred and twelve losses. Can't get it done. That's 2454 01:52:30,479 --> 01:52:32,839 Speaker 2: college is safer first of all, that there's no triveling 2455 01:52:32,920 --> 01:52:35,000 Speaker 2: as much as well. His trial done as bad as 2456 01:52:35,040 --> 01:52:38,040 Speaker 2: the NBA. And you have control. You're the player personnel 2457 01:52:38,120 --> 01:52:41,040 Speaker 2: director as well as the coach, don't you agree. That's 2458 01:52:41,080 --> 01:52:43,000 Speaker 2: why he probably turned it down. He hasn't made a 2459 01:52:43,080 --> 01:52:46,360 Speaker 2: connecticut really when you think about it, he ham picks 2460 01:52:46,400 --> 01:52:48,960 Speaker 2: his players. He could cut or release whatever he wants 2461 01:52:49,000 --> 01:52:51,559 Speaker 2: to do, and basically he's got it made two years 2462 01:52:51,600 --> 01:52:54,920 Speaker 2: in a row. NTUBA Champs. NBA is a different animal. 2463 01:52:55,200 --> 01:52:55,880 Speaker 2: Can't get it done. 2464 01:52:56,760 --> 01:52:59,600 Speaker 3: Yes, it's a different it's a different animal. It's a 2465 01:52:59,680 --> 01:53:04,000 Speaker 3: very lead to have sucsame success. Some things that work 2466 01:53:04,040 --> 01:53:06,439 Speaker 3: in college will not work in the pros. Even though 2467 01:53:06,439 --> 01:53:08,200 Speaker 3: I do believe you can coach pros hard if you 2468 01:53:08,479 --> 01:53:12,800 Speaker 3: earned their respect. For Dan Hurley, I understand what this 2469 01:53:12,920 --> 01:53:15,160 Speaker 3: could have been a little bit of it is look 2470 01:53:15,200 --> 01:53:18,320 Speaker 3: a little ploy, squeeze a little more money out of Yukon, 2471 01:53:18,840 --> 01:53:22,160 Speaker 3: explore the possibilities of being an NBA coach. Continue to 2472 01:53:22,760 --> 01:53:25,559 Speaker 3: kind of build up that foul in that notebook. Learn 2473 01:53:25,720 --> 01:53:28,160 Speaker 3: from the process to set yourself up, because eventually he 2474 01:53:28,200 --> 01:53:30,280 Speaker 3: wants to make the jump. Everyone wants to kind of 2475 01:53:30,320 --> 01:53:33,720 Speaker 3: be in the most competitive league. You want to kind 2476 01:53:33,760 --> 01:53:36,760 Speaker 3: of test your acumen and test what you believe in 2477 01:53:36,880 --> 01:53:39,040 Speaker 3: against some of the best coaches in the brightest minds. 2478 01:53:39,920 --> 01:53:40,840 Speaker 4: Just not his time yet. 2479 01:53:41,000 --> 01:53:44,000 Speaker 3: And I would say this, why leave a situation where 2480 01:53:44,040 --> 01:53:48,320 Speaker 3: there's gonna be a statue for you? You know, I 2481 01:53:48,479 --> 01:53:51,479 Speaker 3: just think it would be hard to replicate what he 2482 01:53:51,600 --> 01:53:53,920 Speaker 3: already has created in Yukon. But maybe in four or 2483 01:53:53,960 --> 01:53:55,679 Speaker 3: five years. He doesn't feel the same way. 2484 01:53:56,000 --> 01:53:58,320 Speaker 2: Right, I think if the New York Nick job opened up, 2485 01:53:58,320 --> 01:54:00,439 Speaker 2: I think he go there. These in these coaches. That's 2486 01:54:00,439 --> 01:54:02,640 Speaker 2: another factor there, because I know his wife wasn't too 2487 01:54:02,680 --> 01:54:05,000 Speaker 2: happy when she heard of California, But I said, it's 2488 01:54:05,000 --> 01:54:07,800 Speaker 2: one coach that has success. In nineteen eighty eight, in 2489 01:54:07,880 --> 01:54:10,559 Speaker 2: his final year Kansas, Larry Brown won the national title 2490 01:54:10,760 --> 01:54:13,320 Speaker 2: and in two thousand and fourth coach of the Detroit Pistons, 2491 01:54:13,520 --> 01:54:15,960 Speaker 2: he wanted to take championships. So Larry Brown is the 2492 01:54:16,120 --> 01:54:18,960 Speaker 2: only coach that is coached in college, won in college, 2493 01:54:19,120 --> 01:54:22,240 Speaker 2: and went to the NBA and won in the NBA. Tough. 2494 01:54:22,360 --> 01:54:22,960 Speaker 2: It's tough to do. 2495 01:54:23,360 --> 01:54:25,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's tough to do great because two different games, 2496 01:54:26,040 --> 01:54:28,920 Speaker 3: completely different games, you have to learn different rules, and 2497 01:54:29,160 --> 01:54:30,000 Speaker 3: the players are different. 2498 01:54:30,000 --> 01:54:32,800 Speaker 4: The players are empowered. So what you have to have is. 2499 01:54:33,240 --> 01:54:38,760 Speaker 3: Having old school principles with a new school mentality where 2500 01:54:38,800 --> 01:54:40,320 Speaker 3: you can relate with the players, but still find a 2501 01:54:40,320 --> 01:54:42,240 Speaker 3: way to hold him accountable, just like you would you 2502 01:54:42,320 --> 01:54:43,040 Speaker 3: collegiate players. 2503 01:54:44,160 --> 01:54:46,440 Speaker 2: You know, it's amazing because everyon when Rick Patino took 2504 01:54:46,440 --> 01:54:48,640 Speaker 2: over the New York Knicks, he tried to use the 2505 01:54:48,720 --> 01:54:50,920 Speaker 2: college tactic. I mean, what did these guys to press 2506 01:54:51,240 --> 01:54:53,240 Speaker 2: for forty eight minutes pick them up in the back. 2507 01:54:53,320 --> 01:54:55,440 Speaker 2: You can't do that. You can't have an NBA to 2508 01:54:56,120 --> 01:54:58,120 Speaker 2: the place too game to do that. You can't do it. 2509 01:54:58,480 --> 01:55:00,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, he did do that, He did press those things 2510 01:55:00,560 --> 01:55:02,760 Speaker 3: and back then look like people scoffed or whatever. But 2511 01:55:02,880 --> 01:55:05,400 Speaker 3: if you notice in the postseason, you've seen more teams 2512 01:55:05,440 --> 01:55:08,520 Speaker 3: pick up ninety four feet. You see more teams kind 2513 01:55:08,520 --> 01:55:11,160 Speaker 3: of utilize the strategy or whatever. I would say this 2514 01:55:11,680 --> 01:55:14,880 Speaker 3: Rick Patino's strategy would work. But you only can do 2515 01:55:15,000 --> 01:55:17,440 Speaker 3: that with a younger team. See if you have a 2516 01:55:17,600 --> 01:55:20,920 Speaker 3: young team where the in the league. Yeah, a young team, 2517 01:55:21,000 --> 01:55:22,920 Speaker 3: a team that hasn't been in the league for a 2518 01:55:23,000 --> 01:55:25,680 Speaker 3: long time, they don't know any better because they're exposed 2519 01:55:25,720 --> 01:55:28,760 Speaker 3: to basketball has been what they experienced in college. Within 2520 01:55:28,960 --> 01:55:31,800 Speaker 3: old NBA team nineteen year vests, they are going to 2521 01:55:31,840 --> 01:55:34,920 Speaker 3: be reluctant to expend that kind of energy, even though 2522 01:55:35,000 --> 01:55:38,320 Speaker 3: we are seeing teams do it in this postseason to 2523 01:55:38,440 --> 01:55:40,760 Speaker 3: help themselves when it comes to shrinking the shot clock 2524 01:55:41,080 --> 01:55:42,600 Speaker 3: and the amount of time that you really have to 2525 01:55:42,600 --> 01:55:44,120 Speaker 3: play defense on the other end of the court. 2526 01:55:44,400 --> 01:55:46,160 Speaker 2: Yeah. And when I watch the NBA playoffs, least the 2527 01:55:46,200 --> 01:55:48,240 Speaker 2: finals right now, it's a different game than you watch 2528 01:55:48,240 --> 01:55:50,080 Speaker 2: a game in November, and these guys are playing at 2529 01:55:50,120 --> 01:55:50,680 Speaker 2: a different level. 2530 01:55:50,720 --> 01:55:51,040 Speaker 11: I love it. 2531 01:55:51,120 --> 01:55:52,880 Speaker 2: I mean, it's certainly a different game because they know 2532 01:55:52,960 --> 01:55:54,640 Speaker 2: the money is on the line. Go back to John 2533 01:55:54,680 --> 01:55:56,920 Speaker 2: Kyla Perry for a second. He was a Kentucky for 2534 01:55:57,040 --> 01:55:58,960 Speaker 2: fifteen years. He had a record of four to ten 2535 01:55:59,040 --> 01:56:01,120 Speaker 2: and one to twenty three is mentioned with the nets. 2536 01:56:01,160 --> 01:56:03,360 Speaker 2: He was seventy two and one twelve and he won 2537 01:56:03,400 --> 01:56:05,840 Speaker 2: a national title of Kentucky. So, I mean, it's just 2538 01:56:05,960 --> 01:56:09,040 Speaker 2: a different game. It just it's tough, and I know 2539 01:56:09,120 --> 01:56:11,160 Speaker 2: it's the same sport, but it's the same sport in 2540 01:56:11,200 --> 01:56:13,840 Speaker 2: a different game. So you know, Hurley may eventually go 2541 01:56:14,040 --> 01:56:16,160 Speaker 2: to the NBA. And I say, if the Knick job 2542 01:56:16,200 --> 01:56:18,120 Speaker 2: would ever open up, I think he'd take the Nick job. 2543 01:56:18,360 --> 01:56:19,920 Speaker 2: That would be a dream come true for him, a 2544 01:56:20,120 --> 01:56:22,920 Speaker 2: you know, local guy from the metropolitan area in New 2545 01:56:22,960 --> 01:56:24,880 Speaker 2: York City coaching the Knicks. That would be great. But 2546 01:56:25,160 --> 01:56:26,800 Speaker 2: he ain't going to LA and the one of the 2547 01:56:26,840 --> 01:56:28,960 Speaker 2: reasons being, I mean, someone had to show him these 2548 01:56:29,480 --> 01:56:31,760 Speaker 2: records of all these coaches that were in college and 2549 01:56:31,880 --> 01:56:34,120 Speaker 2: had great success in college and couldn't cut it in 2550 01:56:34,160 --> 01:56:36,680 Speaker 2: the NBA. I mean, it's not a secret. It's tough 2551 01:56:36,760 --> 01:56:37,840 Speaker 2: to do, it really is. 2552 01:56:39,200 --> 01:56:41,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, it is tough to do. It's tough to pull off. 2553 01:56:42,200 --> 01:56:43,560 Speaker 4: It's one of those things the league. 2554 01:56:43,800 --> 01:56:45,440 Speaker 3: It's not only tough to do one time, but it's 2555 01:56:45,480 --> 01:56:47,800 Speaker 3: tough to be able to do it over a sustained 2556 01:56:47,920 --> 01:56:51,160 Speaker 3: period of time, just because it's so different, the constant 2557 01:56:51,200 --> 01:56:53,480 Speaker 3: turnover in those things, and you don't get a chance 2558 01:56:53,560 --> 01:56:55,160 Speaker 3: to pick your players like you do in college when 2559 01:56:55,160 --> 01:56:55,960 Speaker 3: you're doing the recruiting. 2560 01:56:56,600 --> 01:56:58,960 Speaker 2: You're exactly right here we go, all right, he's Bucky 2561 01:56:59,040 --> 01:57:00,640 Speaker 2: Brooks and I'm Andy from And this is the best 2562 01:57:00,640 --> 01:57:04,080 Speaker 2: part of the show because everyone needs a escapegoat, they 2563 01:57:04,160 --> 01:57:07,560 Speaker 2: really do. That's why we have the blame game, and 2564 01:57:07,680 --> 01:57:11,240 Speaker 2: it's freaking next. The blame game coming right up. It's 2565 01:57:11,240 --> 01:57:12,840 Speaker 2: about ten minutes before the top of the hour. This 2566 01:57:12,960 --> 01:57:15,200 Speaker 2: is Fox Sports Sunday and Fox Sports Radio.

Mike Harmon and Ryan Hollins and our staff. 2571 01:57:27,320 --> 01:57:29,200 Speaker 2: I tell you what, our staff is second to none. 2572 01:57:29,480 --> 01:57:32,080 Speaker 2: I put them up against anybody. I really would, even 2573 01:57:32,200 --> 01:57:35,480 Speaker 2: Kevin Wyre. Yes, I would Mark Ramsey, Kevin wyre thuring 2574 01:57:35,520 --> 01:57:38,640 Speaker 2: the updates. But now now we'll lie for the tirack 2575 01:57:38,680 --> 01:57:41,240 Speaker 2: dot Com studio and his time for the play game. 2576 01:57:41,440 --> 01:57:45,400 Speaker 1: You ruin me. It's all your fault. No, it's your fault. 2577 01:57:45,600 --> 01:57:46,880 Speaker 11: What in all your fault? 2578 01:57:50,400 --> 01:57:53,680 Speaker 2: Maybe it's everyone's fault, see the liar. 2579 01:57:53,920 --> 01:57:56,520 Speaker 1: That's why there's the blame game, the blame game. Let's 2580 01:57:56,560 --> 01:57:57,840 Speaker 1: figure out who to blame. 2581 01:57:58,400 --> 01:58:00,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, here's the eye man, tell us, I mean who 2582 01:58:00,520 --> 01:58:00,920 Speaker 2: to blame? 2583 01:58:01,120 --> 01:58:02,960 Speaker 14: All right, Well, you guys are gonna be telling me 2584 01:58:03,000 --> 01:58:06,200 Speaker 14: who to blame. Actually, so willa you We'll start with this. 2585 01:58:06,480 --> 01:58:09,480 Speaker 14: The Chiefs Super Bowl ring has a typo on it 2586 01:58:10,480 --> 01:58:13,320 Speaker 14: incorrectly listing the Dolphins as a seventh seed when they 2587 01:58:13,360 --> 01:58:14,600 Speaker 14: were actually a sixth seed. 2588 01:58:14,960 --> 01:58:17,919 Speaker 5: Who do you blame, Bucky, the proofers. 2589 01:58:18,000 --> 01:58:20,440 Speaker 3: I blame the people that researching that wanted to put 2590 01:58:20,520 --> 01:58:23,080 Speaker 3: this stuff inside the ring, and in the quality control 2591 01:58:23,080 --> 01:58:24,960 Speaker 3: of the ring makers, someone should have been able to 2592 01:58:25,000 --> 01:58:25,320 Speaker 3: catch that. 2593 01:58:25,840 --> 01:58:26,120 Speaker 5: Andy. 2594 01:58:26,240 --> 01:58:29,240 Speaker 2: That's the logical answer, Bucky Brooks, that's the intelligent answer. 2595 01:58:29,240 --> 01:58:31,840 Speaker 2: The real answer is this that ownership of the Chiefs 2596 01:58:31,920 --> 01:58:34,080 Speaker 2: really a penny pitches because they're trying to get that 2597 01:58:34,160 --> 01:58:36,560 Speaker 2: new stadium. Okay, they're putting the squeeze to the people 2598 01:58:36,800 --> 01:58:39,360 Speaker 2: of Kansas City. And you know what, if they didn't 2599 01:58:39,400 --> 01:58:41,560 Speaker 2: go to a jeweler on the street corner instead of 2600 01:58:41,640 --> 01:58:44,640 Speaker 2: Tiffany's in company, maybe they wouldn't have a mistake. That's 2601 01:58:44,720 --> 01:58:47,280 Speaker 2: the problem. Get your hand in the wallet, you make 2602 01:58:47,320 --> 01:58:49,400 Speaker 2: a money hand of a fist. Get the guys a 2603 01:58:49,480 --> 01:58:51,960 Speaker 2: decent ring, and, by the way, at the same time, 2604 01:58:52,240 --> 01:58:54,760 Speaker 2: get Jason Kelsey a ring another one because he lost 2605 01:58:54,800 --> 01:58:56,560 Speaker 2: his last one. You know, did you hear that story? 2606 01:58:56,640 --> 01:58:59,840 Speaker 2: Kn'ty University of Cincinnati and he was playing a game 2607 01:59:00,160 --> 01:59:02,040 Speaker 2: some kids and they had to put the ring in 2608 01:59:02,160 --> 01:59:04,800 Speaker 2: a vat of chili. And I guess someone stole his 2609 01:59:04,880 --> 01:59:06,760 Speaker 2: ring because he went into the chili vat and they 2610 01:59:06,760 --> 01:59:09,000 Speaker 2: couldn't find the ring anymore. So get him another ring. 2611 01:59:09,840 --> 01:59:11,800 Speaker 5: He just had to put his ring in a vat of. 2612 01:59:11,840 --> 01:59:14,040 Speaker 2: H It was a game they were playing with some kids. Everybody. 2613 01:59:14,040 --> 01:59:15,880 Speaker 5: He didn't have a choice. He didn't have a choice. 2614 01:59:15,960 --> 01:59:17,200 Speaker 5: He just had to put it in chili. 2615 01:59:17,320 --> 01:59:19,040 Speaker 2: Well, they wanted to be a guy who'd be a 2616 01:59:19,080 --> 01:59:21,880 Speaker 2: good sports playing the game ring it to a vat 2617 01:59:21,920 --> 01:59:24,080 Speaker 2: of chili, and they couldn't find the ring. It's gone. 2618 01:59:24,360 --> 01:59:26,240 Speaker 14: I have so many questions, but we have to move 2619 01:59:26,280 --> 01:59:29,680 Speaker 14: on an Trevor Lawrence signed a five year, two hundred 2620 01:59:29,680 --> 01:59:32,800 Speaker 14: and seventy five million dollar contract extension with the Jaguars, 2621 01:59:33,200 --> 01:59:35,640 Speaker 14: tying him with Joe Burrow as the highest paid player 2622 01:59:35,720 --> 01:59:37,040 Speaker 14: in NFL history. 2623 01:59:37,560 --> 01:59:39,040 Speaker 5: Burrow has at least made a Super Bowl. 2624 01:59:39,080 --> 01:59:41,040 Speaker 14: But a lot of people don't really a lot of 2625 01:59:41,080 --> 01:59:44,160 Speaker 14: people consider Lawrence a disappointment because of his generational pre 2626 01:59:44,280 --> 01:59:44,880 Speaker 14: draft status. 2627 01:59:44,960 --> 01:59:45,800 Speaker 5: Andy, who do you blame? 2628 01:59:46,040 --> 01:59:48,440 Speaker 2: He better stop me. He's lucky that the going ry 2629 01:59:48,480 --> 01:59:50,320 Speaker 2: to quarterbacks is that kind of money. He really is 2630 01:59:50,560 --> 01:59:52,960 Speaker 2: now the pressure is really on him. Him and Justin Herbert. 2631 01:59:53,000 --> 01:59:54,960 Speaker 2: Those guys really got to prove but that they could 2632 01:59:55,000 --> 01:59:56,920 Speaker 2: do something. Otherwise they're gonna be labeled. You know what, 2633 01:59:56,960 --> 02:00:00,160 Speaker 2: They're gonna be called Kurt Cousins clone. That's what going 2634 02:00:00,200 --> 02:00:00,640 Speaker 2: to be called. 2635 02:00:01,360 --> 02:00:01,680 Speaker 5: Bucky. 2636 02:00:02,600 --> 02:00:05,320 Speaker 3: I blame the pre draft conversation because what we did 2637 02:00:05,400 --> 02:00:07,400 Speaker 3: is we said Trevor Lawrence for failure. All of the 2638 02:00:07,440 --> 02:00:10,200 Speaker 3: conversation about him being a generational talent. Let us have 2639 02:00:10,360 --> 02:00:13,440 Speaker 3: these exorbitant expectations. I don't think he could live up 2640 02:00:13,480 --> 02:00:15,080 Speaker 3: to him. But when you hear all as the best 2641 02:00:15,160 --> 02:00:18,680 Speaker 3: quarterback prospect since John Elway, how can you live up 2642 02:00:18,720 --> 02:00:18,920 Speaker 3: to that? 2643 02:00:20,080 --> 02:00:24,040 Speaker 14: Jake Fisher of Yahoo Sports reported that the Cavaliers Donovan 2644 02:00:24,080 --> 02:00:26,720 Speaker 14: Mitchell is not expected to seek a trade this offseason 2645 02:00:26,760 --> 02:00:29,120 Speaker 14: and will instead likely sign an extension with the team. 2646 02:00:29,160 --> 02:00:30,000 Speaker 5: Who do you blame, Bucky? 2647 02:00:32,040 --> 02:00:33,760 Speaker 3: Look, he got what he wanted, He got his coach fired, 2648 02:00:33,800 --> 02:00:35,640 Speaker 3: despite the facts that he went to two postseason games 2649 02:00:35,680 --> 02:00:38,120 Speaker 3: and won almost one hundred things. Yeah, Donovan Mitch should 2650 02:00:38,120 --> 02:00:40,320 Speaker 3: have everything, Give him whatever he wants, even though he's 2651 02:00:40,360 --> 02:00:41,560 Speaker 3: never won anything by himself. 2652 02:00:41,720 --> 02:00:42,440 Speaker 5: What about you, Andy? 2653 02:00:42,520 --> 02:00:44,520 Speaker 2: I like to pull a curtain back and say, looky, look, 2654 02:00:44,560 --> 02:00:46,040 Speaker 2: it's a good team because of stay in Cleveland. He 2655 02:00:46,080 --> 02:00:48,600 Speaker 2: probably met a woman. They stay in Cleveland. She's a 2656 02:00:48,640 --> 02:00:50,640 Speaker 2: Cleveland girl, so he's staying with her. That's probably the 2657 02:00:50,720 --> 02:00:52,400 Speaker 2: real reason, you know, really pull. 2658 02:00:52,320 --> 02:00:54,520 Speaker 5: Back the carton, all right, one more quick one. 2659 02:00:54,640 --> 02:00:57,920 Speaker 14: MLB has disciplined umpire Pat Hobart for violating the league's 2660 02:00:57,920 --> 02:00:58,680 Speaker 14: gambling roles. 2661 02:00:58,680 --> 02:00:59,560 Speaker 5: Who do you blame? Andy? 2662 02:01:00,080 --> 02:01:03,080 Speaker 2: I blame him. Control yourself. Come on, you're a leader, 2663 02:01:03,280 --> 02:01:05,280 Speaker 2: and look, he'll be suspended, and he has been suspended 2664 02:01:05,320 --> 02:01:06,600 Speaker 2: for a couple of games as well. As you don't 2665 02:01:06,640 --> 02:01:08,640 Speaker 2: bet on your game and your team, you're not going 2666 02:01:08,720 --> 02:01:10,560 Speaker 2: to lose your job for life. But he'll be suspended 2667 02:01:10,680 --> 02:01:12,960 Speaker 2: for several games. It's a no, no, it's disgusting. 2668 02:01:13,960 --> 02:01:15,200 Speaker 3: Look man, just a matter of time, you know, its 2669 02:01:15,200 --> 02:01:17,000 Speaker 3: gonna happen when the lee's gotting bad with the gamblers. 2670 02:01:17,440 --> 02:01:19,920 Speaker 2: Happy Father's Day, everybody's been great.
