00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:28,600
Speaker 1: who wrote a book about Mike Tomlin Tomlin the Soul

24
00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:31,400
Speaker 1: of a football coach. I want to get some insight

25
00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:34,560
Speaker 1: about his you know, man crush or whatever. They have

26
00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:37,960
Speaker 1: bromance with Aaron Rodgers, just you know, and that, and

27
00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:41,480
Speaker 1: the book just came out in paperback and whatnot. So

28
00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:44,400
Speaker 1: we'll talk to John Harris, who has a good feel

29
00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:46,360
Speaker 1: for Mike Tomlin and how important it is for him

30
00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:47,280
Speaker 1: to win a playoff game.

31
00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:49,080
Speaker 2: Mike. It's been a while. It's been a while.

32
00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:51,280
Speaker 4: I'm knowing Mike since I was a rookie going to

33
00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:52,480
Speaker 4: the NFL in two thousand and five.

34
00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:56,680
Speaker 2: He was actually recruiting me to come play dB for him.

35
00:01:57,040 --> 00:01:59,720
Speaker 2: How much money is that for you? I don't know.

36
00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:02,559
Speaker 2: Did you see that? Rob?

37
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:02,680
Speaker 5: Me?

38
00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:05,640
Speaker 2: You see Carry's like, what did he ask me? How much?

39
00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:06,160
Speaker 2: Wonder the other?

40
00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:09,440
Speaker 4: I will not die. I will not divulge into that, Rob.

41
00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:11,239
Speaker 4: I mean, it's it's it's out there somewhere in the

42
00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:11,680
Speaker 4: ETHERI though.

43
00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:14,480
Speaker 5: Okay, I'm just saying I'm not you're good as something.

44
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:16,520
Speaker 5: Never do it for free as what Carry says. That's right,

45
00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:17,720
Speaker 5: you can't go.

46
00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:22,360
Speaker 1: I know your worth, Rob, I understand if they're paying

47
00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:25,240
Speaker 1: I'm working. I've always said that, right, I'm working if

48
00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:26,000
Speaker 1: they're gonna pay me.

49
00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:27,400
Speaker 2: Uh rob g.

50
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:33,399
Speaker 1: Lebron James made his uh twenty twenty five NBA day.

51
00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:35,040
Speaker 2: Butt it was not a day, but it was more

52
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:38,040
Speaker 2: than Okay, that was better a debut. Ye had his debut.

53
00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:40,160
Speaker 2: That's right. Yep, it's bad. I called it all the day,

54
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:41,160
Speaker 2: but yeah, it's a day, bud.

55
00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:45,040
Speaker 5: Lebron set the NBA record his twenty third NBA season

56
00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:48,320
Speaker 5: came in, started off sluggish, you know, kind of stand

57
00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:51,440
Speaker 5: office there, but closed with the flurry. Finished the game

58
00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:55,800
Speaker 5: with the double double eleven points, twelve assists utah, six

59
00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:58,080
Speaker 5: of them in a three minute stretch. He looked like

60
00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:01,040
Speaker 5: the vintage of Lebron there and the Lakers cruise to

61
00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:03,280
Speaker 5: a victory. But the big story to come out of

62
00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:06,160
Speaker 5: that game was everybody was saying, well, the Lakers got

63
00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:08,400
Speaker 5: good chemistry right now, they're kind of rolling along.

64
00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:09,400
Speaker 2: They look really good.

65
00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:13,320
Speaker 5: What's gonna happen when Lebron James comes back into the lineup.

66
00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:16,000
Speaker 5: But he's gonna dominate the ball like he always has,

67
00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:19,200
Speaker 5: And to his credit, for Night one at least took

68
00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:22,400
Speaker 5: a back seat, played the third fiddle willingly and the

69
00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:23,240
Speaker 5: Lakers cruise.

70
00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:25,000
Speaker 2: That was easy to do.

71
00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:28,760
Speaker 4: Okay, let me go first on this robe because he

72
00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:33,720
Speaker 4: has he has no choice at this point. He may

73
00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:37,680
Speaker 4: be second, but he's not first anymore. This is Luca's team.

74
00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:41,520
Speaker 4: His time out even put a bigger stamp on this

75
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:43,200
Speaker 4: being Lucas team Rob.

76
00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:45,520
Speaker 2: He had no choice but the B two.

77
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:48,840
Speaker 4: Now, will he take the back seat to Austin Reeves

78
00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:51,000
Speaker 4: that the season goes along, Now, that's gonna be the

79
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,920
Speaker 4: real question, right. Austin Reeves doesn't have the credentials that

80
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:57,000
Speaker 4: Lebron has, so he can't really push back on him

81
00:03:57,000 --> 00:03:58,560
Speaker 4: if he wants to be that guy.

82
00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:01,560
Speaker 2: But for Lebron right now, this is actually the best

83
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:02,440
Speaker 2: situation for him.

84
00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:04,680
Speaker 4: If his ego doesn't get in the way, Rob, he

85
00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:11,560
Speaker 4: gets to go in, have fifteen points, eight rebounds, five assists,

86
00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:14,560
Speaker 4: and not be tired as the season progresses and actually

87
00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:16,680
Speaker 4: have a little energy in the playoffs. If that happened,

88
00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:19,880
Speaker 4: So for me, he should take a back seat, and

89
00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:21,480
Speaker 4: if his ego doesn't get in the way, I think

90
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:23,040
Speaker 4: this thing could could work out.

91
00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:29,120
Speaker 1: You make sense, okay, But whether or not Lebron will

92
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:32,200
Speaker 1: subscribe to that, you don't think he will but he

93
00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:37,440
Speaker 1: should be the third option and no matter what, and

94
00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:43,599
Speaker 1: if the Lakers remember new ownership, new this is not

95
00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:49,520
Speaker 1: the people who's tube recruited you and Magic and Genie Buss. No,

96
00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:53,960
Speaker 1: this is not those people anymore. No, Okay, they brought

97
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:57,880
Speaker 1: in Luca. He's twenty five or six, you know, you're

98
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:00,760
Speaker 1: forty five. You know, like like, let's keep it real,

99
00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:07,359
Speaker 1: and they should be building for the future as you

100
00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:11,760
Speaker 1: go on. And Austin Reeves has more of a chance

101
00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:15,200
Speaker 1: of being around with Luca for the next five or

102
00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:16,839
Speaker 1: six years than Lebron.

103
00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:19,280
Speaker 2: So it should be obvious you.

104
00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:26,760
Speaker 1: Don't owe anybody a victory lap sentimental reasons all that,

105
00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:28,560
Speaker 1: and once you get into that, you might as well

106
00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:32,480
Speaker 1: move on totally. If it should never be about that

107
00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:35,640
Speaker 1: Lebron has outstayed.

108
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:37,640
Speaker 2: His welcome, I agree, period.

109
00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:42,960
Speaker 1: I know people think that's hard's Tom Brady outstayed is welcome?

110
00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:46,159
Speaker 1: You know, like when you play that long, it becomes

111
00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:48,360
Speaker 1: an issue. It just does because people are like, well,

112
00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:50,920
Speaker 1: you can't say nothing to him, Yeah, what are you

113
00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:53,680
Speaker 1: gonna do If he wants to play, you gotta play him.

114
00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:56,719
Speaker 1: How are you gonna tell him to take a back seat,

115
00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:59,760
Speaker 1: a third seat? At that, not even just a backseinte

116
00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:04,799
Speaker 1: third seed. But if you're serious about winning, serious about

117
00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:10,279
Speaker 1: moving the Lakers forward, Lebron represents the past, not the present,

118
00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:15,080
Speaker 1: not the future. Who operates like that? You can't live

119
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:18,760
Speaker 1: in the past. A lot of people, dude, it was great.

120
00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:20,960
Speaker 1: You see this happen with teams. They don't want to

121
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:24,640
Speaker 1: let people go. I'll give you a perfect example. The Celtics,

122
00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:29,040
Speaker 1: the Larry Bird, Kevin McHale and Robert parrishon.

123
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:32,760
Speaker 2: They didn't trade any of those guys. They weren't.

124
00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:36,800
Speaker 1: Oh no, we get if they would have moved off

125
00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:38,560
Speaker 1: of some of those guys at you know what I

126
00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:41,760
Speaker 1: mean at the time when they were stars, after they

127
00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:45,240
Speaker 1: had already won their few championships, and then replenish and

128
00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:47,520
Speaker 1: keep one of those three, they could.

129
00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:47,920
Speaker 2: Have done something.

130
00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:50,480
Speaker 4: Do you think that's different because they've already had success

131
00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:53,160
Speaker 4: in the legacy Because in that same vein, I agree

132
00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:55,400
Speaker 4: with you. But in the same vein, like if Dallas

133
00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:57,040
Speaker 4: was to move on from Dirk in the years when

134
00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:59,280
Speaker 4: he wasn't good, you think it would have been received

135
00:06:59,279 --> 00:06:59,640
Speaker 4: the same.

136
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:03,200
Speaker 2: I just think Dallas and them they only won one.

137
00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:04,640
Speaker 2: That's and that's what I'm saying, and he won.

138
00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:07,719
Speaker 1: Now the Celtics, I think he won three, so you

139
00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:10,160
Speaker 1: know what I mean. And yeah, and they held on

140
00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:13,400
Speaker 1: to all those guys and they got old and that team,

141
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:16,920
Speaker 1: if you remember from the last championship, I might be

142
00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:20,040
Speaker 1: off a year with Larry burn them to the next.

143
00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:23,160
Speaker 1: And of course Lambias died and a couple of yes,

144
00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:26,160
Speaker 1: So I'm not acting like those things didn't happen.

145
00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:28,240
Speaker 2: They went twenty years with I want.

146
00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:34,720
Speaker 1: Like twenty like twenty years, so it was a long stretch,

147
00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:38,480
Speaker 1: a long drought. And that's why Rick Patino will remember

148
00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:42,679
Speaker 1: that whole family member. Larry Bird ain't walking through that door,

149
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:45,400
Speaker 1: you know what I mean or whatever, because that's how

150
00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:46,040
Speaker 1: bad it was.

151
00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:50,920
Speaker 2: That and ugly. But if I'm the Lakers, I'm just dude,

152
00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:51,760
Speaker 2: this is working.

153
00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:56,120
Speaker 1: We're winning. But there's no way Lebron is going to

154
00:07:56,960 --> 00:07:59,040
Speaker 1: agree to it. But I think that he should have

155
00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:04,520
Speaker 1: no choice. Here's the problem. Who's the coach j Reddick

156
00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:10,480
Speaker 1: Lebron's boy, Lebron Lebron's podcast partners.

157
00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:15,239
Speaker 2: So you know, I mean, what's the ideal situation?

158
00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:15,480
Speaker 6: Rob.

159
00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:17,120
Speaker 4: I mean, obviously I think we're on the same page.

160
00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:19,480
Speaker 4: He needs to be like the third option. I agree,

161
00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:23,720
Speaker 4: you're the biggest Laker fan going. I mean, that is

162
00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:27,520
Speaker 4: what should happen. I just don't believe it will happen

163
00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:29,160
Speaker 4: because Lebron's ego.

164
00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:32,720
Speaker 1: Is too big. It's the ego that always gets in

165
00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:33,080
Speaker 1: the way.

166
00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:37,680
Speaker 5: I'm with you, I think that, I think we all

167
00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:39,760
Speaker 5: predicted that he was going to be the good soldier

168
00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:40,800
Speaker 5: last night, like.

169
00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:42,520
Speaker 2: Right right, You're not gonna come in and be like.

170
00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:45,920
Speaker 1: And just right.

171
00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:51,240
Speaker 5: The problem comes, if you know, come Christmas time or whatever,

172
00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:54,199
Speaker 5: and they had a tougher part of their schedule, take

173
00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:55,960
Speaker 5: a couple of losses back to back, which is gonna

174
00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:56,319
Speaker 5: happen to.

175
00:08:56,240 --> 00:09:00,520
Speaker 2: Every team unless you're O K C. And then what say, because.

176
00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:08,560
Speaker 5: Because Lebron James, whether he's forty one, thirty one or

177
00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:11,640
Speaker 5: twenty one, has never taken a back seat to anybody,

178
00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:15,160
Speaker 5: no matter what was happening. And you could have this,

179
00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:18,000
Speaker 5: you know, illusion that he was trying to pass the

180
00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:19,479
Speaker 5: keys over to Anthony.

181
00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:20,760
Speaker 2: Davis, and then that wasn't worth it.

182
00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:23,280
Speaker 5: Never happened, never happened, even though Anthony Davis was the

183
00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:25,800
Speaker 5: best player and he had all the numbers, it was

184
00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:29,280
Speaker 5: so no, it's Lebron's team. So it's gonna go. He

185
00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:32,880
Speaker 5: never wanted to give it to Kyrie in Cleveland. When

186
00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:36,640
Speaker 5: he was in Miami, he took it from Dwayne Wade

187
00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:40,120
Speaker 5: like his lunch money because so far and this has

188
00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:40,840
Speaker 5: been the problem.

189
00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:42,600
Speaker 2: And rest in peace, Christmas.

190
00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:45,120
Speaker 5: Sorry Chris has said this now going back on the original,

191
00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:46,439
Speaker 5: he's not here no more.

192
00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:49,760
Speaker 2: He's not with that, you know what I mean. But Chris, I.

193
00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:54,200
Speaker 5: Pray for Chris. But Chris had said, you know, you're

194
00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:56,800
Speaker 5: one of the odd couple, right, he was saying. The

195
00:09:57,280 --> 00:10:01,320
Speaker 5: biggest reason why he never thought that Lebron fully fulfill

196
00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:03,240
Speaker 5: this potential want all the championsp that he thinks his

197
00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:06,840
Speaker 5: talent probably should have was because he insisted on being

198
00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:09,440
Speaker 5: the system everywhere.

199
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:12,079
Speaker 1: And a lot of players who could have been even

200
00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:16,000
Speaker 1: better didn't always get the new you know, to use

201
00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:19,480
Speaker 1: their talent. Chris Boss is a perfect example. Even in Miami,

202
00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:22,160
Speaker 1: even though they went to four, Chris Boss wound up

203
00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:25,400
Speaker 1: standing on the perimeter, standing out there right like this, dude,

204
00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:27,360
Speaker 1: go look at his numbers in Toronto.

205
00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:28,640
Speaker 2: And Toronto, am I razy?

206
00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:29,400
Speaker 6: Right? Yeah?

207
00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:31,600
Speaker 2: Yeah? Absolutely? Look at Kevin Love in Cleveland.

208
00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:34,160
Speaker 1: Kevin Love was doing a double double and it was

209
00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:35,800
Speaker 1: like twenty and twenty two.

210
00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:40,040
Speaker 2: It was forty. He was going, he was going. He

211
00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:42,040
Speaker 2: was not even close to that when he played Lebron.

212
00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:44,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, and I mean even later on, like right, like

213
00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:46,960
Speaker 4: even the the Russell Westbrooks and all that, Like obviously

214
00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:49,679
Speaker 4: their games was falling off. But if you team up

215
00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:53,040
Speaker 4: with the Lebron, what do you have to gain? If

216
00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:56,480
Speaker 4: you win, it's Lebron's he gets the credit. If you lose,

217
00:10:56,520 --> 00:10:57,680
Speaker 4: you're the one getting to blame.

218
00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:01,240
Speaker 1: So I always said that, like if you if they win,

219
00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:05,000
Speaker 1: Lebron's the goat, and if they lose, your escape.

220
00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:06,760
Speaker 2: That's how That's how it went.

221
00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:09,600
Speaker 5: And that's what makes nights like last night. I'm not

222
00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:12,040
Speaker 5: gonna say fresh. Frustrating is the wrong word. But you

223
00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:14,959
Speaker 5: see that he's entirely capable of playing that way. You

224
00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:17,040
Speaker 5: see it fitting in because he's so good and he's

225
00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:19,840
Speaker 5: so dynamic. He can do whatever you ask him to do.

226
00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:22,160
Speaker 5: The problem is is he has to be willing to

227
00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:25,280
Speaker 5: set aside his ego to play a certain role, and

228
00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:28,839
Speaker 5: so far in twenty three plus years in the NBA,

229
00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:30,240
Speaker 5: he hasn't shown a willingness to do that.

230
00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:33,440
Speaker 2: And you gotta remember, Okay, so he gets praised.

231
00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:39,360
Speaker 1: Now after a while on the shows on people start

232
00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:44,120
Speaker 1: talking Lebron's washed. He's the third option, you know what

233
00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:47,320
Speaker 1: I mean, Like the Lakers don't need him, like all that.

234
00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:50,600
Speaker 2: Then you get in your feeling. What are you talking?

235
00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:56,040
Speaker 1: And he said, he proclaimed himself the goat. I say,

236
00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:58,240
Speaker 1: you can't be king of the United States. I only

237
00:11:58,280 --> 00:11:59,360
Speaker 1: recognize one kid.

238
00:11:59,400 --> 00:12:00,120
Speaker 2: Who's your king.

239
00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:03,120
Speaker 4: That's Burger King. Other than that, I don't recognize Eddie Kings.

240
00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:05,480
Speaker 4: Oh my goodness, And that's a bad that's a bad king.

241
00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:11,400
Speaker 4: Recognize no, man. I just I hope for his sake,

242
00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:14,000
Speaker 4: just for his sake. And like you said it, he's

243
00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:19,720
Speaker 4: already outlived. He's outlived as basketball days, he said, like seriously,

244
00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:22,360
Speaker 4: like and let these kids eat and play well, and

245
00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:24,400
Speaker 4: you do the ancillary things to help your team win.

246
00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:26,240
Speaker 4: Be that guy that you wanted other people to be

247
00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:27,280
Speaker 4: your whole career.

248
00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:29,760
Speaker 1: I'm with you, you know, I.

249
00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:32,199
Speaker 2: Don't see me sticking around too long watching What do

250
00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:35,079
Speaker 2: you think he's going to? What is he going? Is

251
00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:37,000
Speaker 2: he gonna take a back seat and say that's all

252
00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:38,679
Speaker 2: better for the team. No, But the.

253
00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:43,520
Speaker 4: Crazy part g he has to, like you know what

254
00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:45,079
Speaker 4: I mean, Like I know what you're saying, because I

255
00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:47,000
Speaker 4: agree with you, Like the ego is a thing, right,

256
00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:50,720
Speaker 4: but he can't We've seen the last couple of years.

257
00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:51,880
Speaker 4: He can't do it alone anyway.

258
00:12:51,880 --> 00:12:56,040
Speaker 1: But but look if Austin Reeves has a bad week

259
00:12:56,280 --> 00:12:58,280
Speaker 1: or you know what I mean, that's all it would take,

260
00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:00,760
Speaker 1: is like they lose to a three in a row

261
00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:04,560
Speaker 1: and say Austin's shooting. Well, oh, y'all don't need me,

262
00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:07,160
Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Oh, y'all what you know

263
00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:09,280
Speaker 1: what y'all thought? Y'all thought I was the wash k

264
00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:11,840
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go out there and then one night maybe

265
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:14,400
Speaker 1: forces up to be able to score forty points, you know,

266
00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:16,160
Speaker 1: and to say he could still do it.

267
00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:17,200
Speaker 2: You know what he will do.

268
00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:19,920
Speaker 4: I think he would actually pull with Kobe though, and

269
00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:21,480
Speaker 4: not shuit the ball at all in the whole game,

270
00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:22,480
Speaker 4: just to prove a point.

271
00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:24,679
Speaker 2: That was the That was the low point in Kobe,

272
00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:25,160
Speaker 2: you know what I mean?

273
00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:27,599
Speaker 5: Like and would you admit that, Oh yeah, that was

274
00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:29,560
Speaker 5: that He could his basketball career.

275
00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:30,640
Speaker 2: Absolutely he could.

276
00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:32,880
Speaker 1: If he could take that back, he would because that

277
00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:35,360
Speaker 1: was so un Kobe like.

278
00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:37,880
Speaker 5: Hey, but it worked. They got them Power to Song

279
00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:40,960
Speaker 5: and a couple of chips later, but that was playing

280
00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:42,240
Speaker 5: chess Nott checkers over here.

281
00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:45,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, but that was only because they what's his name,

282
00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:48,600
Speaker 1: the GM had a deal with the devil in Charlotte.

283
00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:53,760
Speaker 1: That was a terrible trade to get his Memphis Jerry West,

284
00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:56,480
Speaker 1: Jerry Jerry West. That was like like that was a

285
00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:59,120
Speaker 1: wink wing. Jerry West helped the Lakers in that tree.

286
00:13:59,160 --> 00:13:59,600
Speaker 2: You know that.

287
00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:03,600
Speaker 5: Who did get who did they give up? Marcasol Mircasot's good.

288
00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:08,600
Speaker 5: They gave up nobody. Kwame Brown. That's because he called

289
00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:10,520
Speaker 5: you ugly, Rob. You don't like Kwame before that.

290
00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:12,480
Speaker 2: You will find time out what happened?

291
00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:16,840
Speaker 5: Yeah, Rob and Chris were getting ripped on these viral

292
00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:20,920
Speaker 5: videos for like the week straight. He called Chris glowstick.

293
00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:24,200
Speaker 5: He said, Rob Parker's ugly, Right, that was it. I

294
00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:26,080
Speaker 5: remember that you were fine with him when he was

295
00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:27,920
Speaker 5: tracking everybody out. Then he came at you, and you're like,

296
00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:29,840
Speaker 5: nas the line I crossed the line?

297
00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:30,080
Speaker 6: I did?

298
00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:32,600
Speaker 1: You're gonna say I'm ugly?

299
00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:34,360

303
00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:47,800
Speaker 1: Lebron James will accept being the third option with the

304
00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:50,920
Speaker 1: Lakers or not. Willy, he did it last night. It

305
00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:53,240
Speaker 1: looked good, it was easy. They scored one hundred and

306
00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:54,000
Speaker 1: forty points.

307
00:14:54,400 --> 00:14:55,040

00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:11,760
Speaker 1: just ease in there, not do too much, be the

357
00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:14,840
Speaker 1: third option, no problem. The Lakers went big over Utah,

358
00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:18,880

Speaker 1: the season goes on, we want to hear from you.

360
00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:22,480

Speaker 10: I appreciate, you know, because they used to have them.

Speaker 10: Should do a standers then lasty feelings before It's about

367
00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:42,760
Speaker 10: time he started bringing in some quality feelings on the show.

368
00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:46,800
Speaker 2: Thank you, brother, I appreciate that.

369
00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:49,880
Speaker 10: No, I'm talking about that George Reister.

370
00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:56,520
Speaker 2: George wrong stuff, right, he was so wrong man.

371
00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:59,680
Speaker 10: But I can tell you exactly when it's going to

372
00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:00,520
Speaker 10: break for Lebron.

373
00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:00,920
Speaker 6: You know.

374
00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:03,880
Speaker 10: Michael Jordan's I think the Wizards he avers like twenty.

375
00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:05,520
Speaker 6: Points a game with the Wizards.

376
00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:10,399
Speaker 10: You let Lebron James come anywhere below that, but it

377
00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:12,560
Speaker 10: looks like he's gonna come below that, and it starts

378
00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:16,119
Speaker 10: messing with his goat thing. It will quickly fade away.

379
00:18:16,359 --> 00:18:18,840
Speaker 10: He'll be like, nah, Nah, this ain't gonna happen because

380
00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:21,120
Speaker 10: I'm already trying to prove to the world and I'm

381
00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:23,880
Speaker 10: better than my I Am not going to be less

382
00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:26,600
Speaker 10: than what he was scoring like that, You let that

383
00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:28,960
Speaker 10: conversation start happening, and that's when it's all war.

384
00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:31,399
Speaker 1: You know what, tell them that is the spot on.

385
00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:35,000
Speaker 1: That is spot on, and don't forget Yeah, appreciate it.

386
00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:40,080
Speaker 1: That scoring average starts to go down. Not That's why,

387
00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:45,360
Speaker 1: like I told I told uh Kelvin and christis if

388
00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:47,840
Speaker 1: the NBA want to stop that low management and Stephan

389
00:18:47,880 --> 00:18:50,800
Speaker 1: all that you put zero's on those games when they're

390
00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:52,920
Speaker 1: not healthy. When they're healthy and they don't play, and

391
00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:56,440
Speaker 1: you put that in your scoring average, you better believe

392
00:18:56,480 --> 00:18:58,680
Speaker 1: they'll play. The reason they don't want to play it

393
00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:00,520
Speaker 1: is because they don't want to play ten minutes and

394
00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:01,399
Speaker 1: then again.

395
00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:04,479
Speaker 2: Score six or eight points. You're scoring average drops.

396
00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:06,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, So that's why people say, well, why'd you just

397
00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:08,560
Speaker 1: play some minutes instead of not playing at all.

398
00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:10,080
Speaker 2: That's the reason why.

399
00:19:10,359 --> 00:19:12,600
Speaker 1: And if you said you get zeros for those games,

400
00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:14,240
Speaker 1: people would have a heart attack.

401
00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:16,680
Speaker 2: Eight seven, seven ninety nine on five, let's fight. Let's

402
00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:19,840
Speaker 2: go to Andre from Massachusetts. You on with the okable man.

403
00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:20,800
Speaker 2: How are you? What's up?

404
00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:21,000
Speaker 11: Dre?

405
00:19:22,680 --> 00:19:23,199
Speaker 5: How you doing?

406
00:19:23,280 --> 00:19:25,639
Speaker 12: Thanks for taking the call. Rob, You're one hundred percent right.

407
00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:28,000
Speaker 12: We need to put all them zeros across the board

408
00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:31,480
Speaker 12: and get the players out there, because Rob, you remember

409
00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:34,280
Speaker 12: in the awesome eighties when the players were flying coach

410
00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:36,920
Speaker 12: playing those eighty two games, we didn't have all this

411
00:19:37,040 --> 00:19:39,000
Speaker 12: talk about load management and what we can't do now

412
00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:41,320
Speaker 12: that is playing all these private jets and all we have,

413
00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:43,800
Speaker 12: all these luxury accommodations. Now all of a sudden they

414
00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:46,640
Speaker 12: can't play. It's ridiculous. They need zeros for those games.

415
00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:47,040
Speaker 6: Listen.

416
00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:49,080
Speaker 12: In terms of Lebron James, no, no, no, no, no,

417
00:19:49,359 --> 00:19:50,560
Speaker 12: he's not going to be a third fit or no,

418
00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:54,480
Speaker 12: we ain't gonna be a third fiddle to somebody undrafted

419
00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:59,320
Speaker 12: at in the bracket. Yeah, but we do know he

420
00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:02,440
Speaker 12: is uh a svant when it comes to basketball, both

421
00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:05,560
Speaker 12: both mentally and then with his capabilities. He can play

422
00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:08,600
Speaker 12: complimentary basketball. He's shown their ability to do that. He

423
00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:10,719
Speaker 12: did it in Miami, you know, and then they had

424
00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:12,560
Speaker 12: to go to him because he was in his prime years.

425
00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:14,480
Speaker 12: But he is capable of doing that, and I think

426
00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:17,159
Speaker 12: as the season goes on, he will be take that

427
00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:20,359
Speaker 12: great role as second to Luca Dontis, who's in his prime,

428
00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:22,320
Speaker 12: and give the Lakers a real shot to make noise.

429
00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:24,160
Speaker 12: Are they better than OKC? Are they better than Denver?

430
00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:24,440
Speaker 6: No?

431
00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:27,520
Speaker 12: But those two combined together going for Toronto, they can

432
00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:28,720
Speaker 12: make noise in the Western Conference.

433
00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:30,000
Speaker 6: Thanks taking a call? I like it?

434
00:20:30,080 --> 00:20:32,840

481
00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:25,440
Speaker 14: I just wanted to let you know. You know, I've

482
00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:28,600
Speaker 14: kind of got a different take, almost almost the same

483
00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:28,959
Speaker 14: as Dre.

484
00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:30,240
Speaker 2: What'd you got?

485
00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:34,520
Speaker 14: It's like, you know, Lebron has since he's been in

486
00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:36,920
Speaker 14: the league, he's had to he's had to take on

487
00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:40,720
Speaker 14: that role because nobody else that he played with could

488
00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:44,520
Speaker 14: actually do anything. And they'd get it, they'd give and

489
00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:46,520
Speaker 14: then they just fall off, and then he'd come back

490
00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:51,160
Speaker 14: and take over, and he was you know, he's gonna

491
00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:54,640
Speaker 14: be like that this season. Is they started falling off,

492
00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:56,800
Speaker 14: is he gonna do the same thing. Is he gonna

493
00:22:56,800 --> 00:22:59,920
Speaker 14: come back and be old Lebron and just take over

494
00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:02,680
Speaker 14: in the fourth and just do what he does. But

495
00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:09,840
Speaker 14: if if his best known mentality just shows, he'll let

496
00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:12,119
Speaker 14: the other people get it. That's why he's got so

497
00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:15,639
Speaker 14: many assists. Well and everybody thought he was just a score.

498
00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:20,080
Speaker 15: Yeah, all right, that's fair, allan, Yeah, I mean appreciate

500
00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:24,399
Speaker 15: to do that. But again his body isn't gonna allow that.

501
00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:26,560
Speaker 15: Yeah no, not he can't carry the low. I mean,

502
00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:29,639
Speaker 15: he's just it's just not gonna happen. All right, all right,

Speaker 6: But it's out there.

532
00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:58,000
Speaker 9: It's been out since October twenty Haysten, and I'm excited

533
00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:00,280
Speaker 9: about it because it's I know, Rob you had me

534
00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:02,720
Speaker 9: on before when I talked about the original the hardback

535
00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:06,040
Speaker 9: YEP addition, but this is different. The paperback is an

536
00:25:06,119 --> 00:25:11,000
Speaker 9: updated version and it has a really interesting chapter on

537
00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:16,200
Speaker 9: actually how Mike Tommlon really really got the job. It

538
00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:19,000
Speaker 9: was so much talk about how it happened, how it

539
00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:21,960
Speaker 9: didn't happen. Was it because of the Rooney rule? Was

540
00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:25,360
Speaker 9: not because of the Ruiney rule? And finally found out

541
00:25:25,680 --> 00:25:28,760
Speaker 9: exactly how he got the job. It's pretty pretty interesting.

542
00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:31,080
Speaker 9: We can talk about it and break it down and

543
00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:33,119
Speaker 9: go from there with it.

544
00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:35,920
Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, I mean, it depends on what you want

545
00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:38,199
Speaker 2: to talk about. Our people can buy the book. It's

546
00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:38,600
Speaker 2: up to you.

547
00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:41,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, because it has to be an interesting I'll tell

548
00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:46,840
Speaker 1: you as somebody you know who covered every Lion's game

549
00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:49,560
Speaker 1: for twenty years basically, you know, home and road and

550
00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:54,600
Speaker 1: being around. I'll remember Mike Tomlin for only one reason.

551
00:25:55,119 --> 00:25:56,800
Speaker 1: When I knew he was going to be a head coach.

552
00:25:57,040 --> 00:26:00,000
Speaker 1: I was watching. This was a game I was watched,

553
00:26:01,040 --> 00:26:03,240
Speaker 1: and there was the Lions and the Vikings, and he

554
00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:04,960
Speaker 1: was the defensive coordinator.

555
00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:05,680
Speaker 6: H right.

556
00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:10,520
Speaker 2: They gave him so much FaceTime. I could not like.

557
00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:15,080
Speaker 1: The camera was on Mike Tomlin almost the entire I

558
00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:20,040
Speaker 1: was stunned. I kept saying to myself, wow, you know,

559
00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:22,320
Speaker 1: and they were talking about the defense and Mike Thomas,

560
00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:24,240
Speaker 1: Mike Tomlin, and that's when I know it was going

561
00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:25,040
Speaker 1: to be a head coach.

562
00:26:25,920 --> 00:26:26,120
Speaker 6: Yeah.

563
00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:29,359
Speaker 9: Yeah, he's very knew a lot of people, a lot

564
00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:33,119
Speaker 9: of influential people like Tony Dungee, Brad Childrens who gave

565
00:26:33,200 --> 00:26:37,000
Speaker 9: him the opportunity to be a defensive coordinator in Minnesota, obviously,

566
00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:40,520
Speaker 9: the Rooney family. He was just on this path.

567
00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:41,600
Speaker 6: You know when he went.

568
00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:43,800
Speaker 9: He was a college and he coached at v m I,

569
00:26:44,760 --> 00:26:49,359
Speaker 9: Arkansas State, University of Cincinnati, University of Memphis, and then

570
00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:53,119
Speaker 9: Monte Kiffin Lane Kiffin's bad with a defensive coordinator in

571
00:26:53,240 --> 00:26:57,560
Speaker 9: Tampa Bay. He knew the Cincinnati head coach and they

572
00:26:57,640 --> 00:26:59,959
Speaker 9: went back along many years and recommended him.

573
00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:00,879
Speaker 6: And then he goes to.

574
00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:04,240
Speaker 9: Tampa Bay when's the Super Bowl there as the defensive

575
00:27:04,280 --> 00:27:08,920
Speaker 9: back coach. Now he's a hot name. Was Minnesota for

576
00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:11,800
Speaker 9: one year, like you said, one year, that's it and

577
00:27:12,040 --> 00:27:15,800
Speaker 9: then he he interviewed actually before that for the for

578
00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:19,399
Speaker 9: the Miami Dolphins head coaching job, and and didn't get it.

579
00:27:19,760 --> 00:27:21,960
Speaker 9: Apparently he was as I said in the book, he

580
00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:25,760
Speaker 9: was deemed to be too too hip hop and new

581
00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:26,360
Speaker 9: hip hop.

582
00:27:28,119 --> 00:27:30,159
Speaker 4: He didn't even come across like he too buttoned up

583
00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:33,040
Speaker 4: for me. No, No, at that time was he my

584
00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:34,879
Speaker 4: time when the dB coach was cool? He was a

585
00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:38,439
Speaker 4: cool because he changed and he changes demeanor. You got

586
00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:39,920
Speaker 4: to when you're the head guy, you gotta change a

587
00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:41,800
Speaker 4: little bit. But no, John, I want to ask you

588
00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:45,760
Speaker 4: what what was the motivating factor behind using this subject?

589
00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:48,640
Speaker 4: You know, obviously the subject being in that situation Mike

590
00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:51,960
Speaker 4: Tomlin to uh to write a book about it and

591
00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:52,879
Speaker 4: really share the story.

592
00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:54,760
Speaker 2: Expand on the story, Well, I.

593
00:27:54,800 --> 00:27:57,400
Speaker 9: Lived in Pittsburgh ten years. I worked as a commerce

594
00:27:57,440 --> 00:28:00,879
Speaker 9: for the Pittsburgh Tribute Review. I covered his first ten years,

595
00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:05,040
Speaker 9: So I got to follow that whole process, the hiring process,

596
00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:07,560
Speaker 9: you know, going to this winning the Super Bowl his

597
00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:11,600
Speaker 9: second year, then going to another Super Bowl two years later.

598
00:28:12,480 --> 00:28:16,480
Speaker 9: And so he's just just getting hired at thirty four

599
00:28:17,680 --> 00:28:20,360
Speaker 9: an African American coach, black coach hired at thirty four

600
00:28:20,440 --> 00:28:23,840
Speaker 9: at that time, two thousand and two thousand and seven,

601
00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:26,680
Speaker 9: it was just it was just you know, think back

602
00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:30,360
Speaker 9: how long ago that was. He's now in his nineteenth season.

603
00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:36,800
Speaker 9: He's the longest tenured head heads coach and professional professional hits,

604
00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:38,800
Speaker 9: professional North American sports.

605
00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:42,440
Speaker 2: Laugh as you said it, John, That's that's funny. Yeah.

606
00:28:42,480 --> 00:28:45,080
Speaker 1: But the only thing is that that brother better win

607
00:28:45,120 --> 00:28:48,880
Speaker 1: a playoff game pretty soon. The clock is ticking. Now,

608
00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:52,600
Speaker 1: does he he understands that? Doesn't he doesn't he feel that?

609
00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:53,600
Speaker 6: Yeah?

610
00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:55,240
Speaker 9: Look look at through what he did in the off season,

611
00:28:55,320 --> 00:28:57,840
Speaker 9: bringing a forty one year old quarterback, Well, they needed.

612
00:28:57,640 --> 00:29:01,040
Speaker 2: A quarterback, not not a right I mean and Aaron Rodgers.

613
00:29:01,200 --> 00:29:03,200
Speaker 2: We get it. He's forty one, but he knows how

614
00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:07,240
Speaker 2: to play the position. Yeah. Well, Aaron Rodgers my draft class, right,

615
00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:11,120
Speaker 2: that's all. That's all is, John, Go ahead, John, finish John.

616
00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:14,600
Speaker 9: They made a lot of trade, you know, with Miami,

617
00:29:14,960 --> 00:29:16,959
Speaker 9: and it just brought a lot of veterans and they

618
00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:17,600
Speaker 9: were arming up.

619
00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:19,600
Speaker 6: They were gearing up for this year.

620
00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:21,680
Speaker 9: And Aaron Rodgers was going to be the icing on

621
00:29:21,880 --> 00:29:25,720
Speaker 9: the cake. And there are two games over five hundred

622
00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:29,360
Speaker 9: right now. Six to four of Baltimore is fast approaching.

623
00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:31,720
Speaker 9: It's gonna be interesting to see how it goes down

624
00:29:31,800 --> 00:29:35,240
Speaker 9: the stretch. I think they have their defense straightened out

625
00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:37,160
Speaker 9: and now they just have to get a little bit

626
00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:41,040
Speaker 9: maybe a little bit more consistency with the offense. And

627
00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:43,360
Speaker 9: that's in Pittsburgh when I was there.

628
00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:46,000
Speaker 6: I live in Texas now, but there's.

629
00:29:45,880 --> 00:29:49,280
Speaker 9: Always been a love hate relationship with Mike common with

630
00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:52,360
Speaker 9: the media, with the fans there. Skillers haven't had a

631
00:29:52,440 --> 00:29:53,960
Speaker 9: losing season since two thousand and.

632
00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:58,040
Speaker 6: Three, so there's just this expectation.

633
00:29:57,680 --> 00:30:00,360
Speaker 9: That, like you said, Rob, they haven't won a playoff game.

634
00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:02,080
Speaker 6: Since two thousand and sixteen.

635
00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:04,640
Speaker 1: And the last thing we do want to get to

636
00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:07,760
Speaker 1: we're on a one out of time the bromance with

637
00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:08,600
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers.

638
00:30:08,680 --> 00:30:10,320
Speaker 2: Where's that? Where's that from?

639
00:30:11,600 --> 00:30:13,400
Speaker 1: And I get it, you know, as another coach to

640
00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:17,000
Speaker 1: watch somebody and obviously to admire and people for whatever.

641
00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:20,880
Speaker 1: You people could dislike Aaron Rodgers whatever for other stuff.

642
00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:23,880
Speaker 1: As a football player, and you know this, dude, he's

643
00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:25,760
Speaker 1: one of the best players who ever threw the football.

644
00:30:25,960 --> 00:30:30,080
Speaker 2: I mean, anybody who said who can't say that isn't

645
00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:31,680
Speaker 2: being honest. Yeah for sure. Yeah.

646
00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:34,200
Speaker 9: Well, they go back to the Super Bowl when Green

647
00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:37,400
Speaker 9: Bay beat the Steelers, and I think their relationship has

648
00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:39,000
Speaker 9: been there ever since. I know there was a game

649
00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:41,800
Speaker 9: they played Green Bay a few years ago and he

650
00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:44,080
Speaker 9: and Mike were like, no, I'm sorry with the jet

651
00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:45,959
Speaker 9: last year and he and Mike they had this special

652
00:30:46,040 --> 00:30:48,200
Speaker 9: bond after the game and people.

653
00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:49,600
Speaker 6: Were looking at it like what's going on here? So

654
00:30:49,760 --> 00:30:52,400
Speaker 6: this is a player he's admired forever.

655
00:30:53,080 --> 00:30:56,200
Speaker 9: And the quarterback situation last year in Pittsburgh was not good.

656
00:30:56,320 --> 00:30:58,400
Speaker 9: So Mike Thomas said, Okay, this is what we need

657
00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:02,400
Speaker 9: when need stability, need this veteran. I love Aaron Rodgers.

658
00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:04,640
Speaker 9: I'm going to get Aaron Rodgers and so here we are.

659
00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:07,560
Speaker 9: Now he's coming off an injury. He hurt his wrists

660
00:31:07,560 --> 00:31:11,200
Speaker 9: as a broken Risks or some partly broken risks, So

661
00:31:11,280 --> 00:31:13,600
Speaker 9: we'll see what happens. He wanted he I think he

662
00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:16,959
Speaker 9: felt like Aaron Rodgers was the final piece to this puzzle,

663
00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:19,160
Speaker 9: which he said he believed at the beginning of the

664
00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:21,400
Speaker 9: year that this is a team that can win championships.

665
00:31:21,480 --> 00:31:23,680

Speaker 13: Simple? Not only did they have to bombard us with that,

738
00:35:25,840 --> 00:35:29,040
Speaker 13: I guess you could say performance that Rob was luxurious

739
00:35:29,080 --> 00:35:31,239
Speaker 13: enough to go to Australia to watch, they decided to

740
00:35:31,280 --> 00:35:34,680
Speaker 13: make a terrible movie fandom of the opera No, No, Wicked.

741
00:35:34,760 --> 00:35:37,239
Speaker 13: They made were a terrible movie with Ariana Grande. And

742
00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:39,800
Speaker 13: then they had this whole like rebuttal thing and like

743
00:35:40,040 --> 00:35:43,080
Speaker 13: integral conspiracy about the girl playing the witch. Now there's

744
00:35:43,080 --> 00:35:45,279
Speaker 13: a second one. I just all I'm gonna say is

745
00:35:45,360 --> 00:35:47,320
Speaker 13: the movie sucked. I watched none of it, so I

746
00:35:47,360 --> 00:35:48,120
Speaker 13: can say it sucks.

747
00:35:50,120 --> 00:35:50,480
Speaker 3: Saw it.

748
00:35:50,560 --> 00:35:52,640
Speaker 13: I didn't need to see it. It's for example, it's

749
00:35:52,640 --> 00:35:54,640
Speaker 13: like people, I hate this statement by this way. It's like, oh,

750
00:35:55,120 --> 00:35:57,120
Speaker 13: you can't complain because you didn't vote. No, I can

751
00:35:57,200 --> 00:36:00,960

752
00:36:01,080 --> 00:36:04,160

753
00:36:04,239 --> 00:36:05,080
Speaker 2: I'm gonna complain.

754
00:36:05,160 --> 00:36:09,000
Speaker 18: You guys are understand your arguments against Wicked, but you're

755
00:36:09,120 --> 00:36:13,200
Speaker 18: missing entirely the complete press tour that was rammed down

756
00:36:13,239 --> 00:36:17,520
Speaker 18: our throats for Hamilton, which was first factually inaccurate, second

00:36:31,360 --> 00:36:34,800
Speaker 2: came back to do performances, that's when the prices.

763

767
00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:45,279

00:36:45,320 --> 00:36:48,120
Speaker 4: that I'm joining in with everybody on this. I'm almost

769
00:36:48,160 --> 00:36:50,840

770
00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:52,640

00:37:24,239 --> 00:37:26,640

782
00:37:27,040 --> 00:37:28,960

783
00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:30,560
Speaker 5: saw like three times, that's how good it is. The

784
00:37:30,680 --> 00:37:33,720
Speaker 5: problem is that the movie is better than the musical.

785
00:37:33,880 --> 00:37:38,560
Speaker 2: And what's that? So Lion King gotta go Lion King? No, no, no, no, no,

Speaker 2: life and the guy it's a guy. But yes, yes,

790
00:37:53,960 --> 00:37:57,080
Speaker 2: that was it was incredible. Was it wasn't even it

791
00:37:57,160 --> 00:37:57,960
Speaker 2: wasn't animatronics.

792
00:37:58,000 --> 00:37:58,440
Speaker 3: It was real.

00:37:58,520 --> 00:37:59,959
Speaker 2: The just came up, real people.

794
00:38:00,160 --> 00:38:00,920

796
00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:07,040
Speaker 16: It was I'm telling you, I could not believe, like

797
00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:09,880
Speaker 16: like the pageantry and and everything.

798
00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:11,160

00:38:11,200 --> 00:38:11,640
Speaker 9: And you know why?

800
00:38:11,680 --> 00:38:13,719
Speaker 5: It was more incredible for you you had. You were

801
00:38:13,800 --> 00:38:17,320
Speaker 5: up two rows in front of Robs. I couldn't see everything.

802
00:38:17,480 --> 00:38:19,480
Speaker 5: So that's why I didn't get the same experience you got.

803
00:38:19,640 --> 00:38:21,879
Speaker 2: I'm not even I'm not. I was sitting.
