Black had a tied for twenty first at 68 00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:51,440 Speaker 3: the US Open in twenty nineteen at Pebble Beach, and 69 00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:54,119 Speaker 3: then at the Open Championship was cut. The next year, 70 00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:56,400 Speaker 3: tied for thirty eight at the Masters that was the 71 00:03:56,440 --> 00:04:00,720 Speaker 3: Funky COVID Masters, the PGA Championship, tied for three thirty seventh, 72 00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:03,440 Speaker 3: was cut from the US Open that was played in September. 73 00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:06,600 Speaker 3: There was no Open Championship. Didn't participate in any of 74 00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 3: the majors in twenty twenty one after his car accident. 75 00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:13,320 Speaker 3: In twenty twenty two, finished forty seventh in the Masters, 76 00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:16,719 Speaker 3: withdrew from the PGA Championship again I don't care, was 77 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:19,000 Speaker 3: cut from the Open Championship and didn't play in the 78 00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:22,359 Speaker 3: US Open at Brookline in twenty twenty three, had to 79 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:25,040 Speaker 3: withdraw from the Masters, and then didn't play any more majors, 80 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:28,159 Speaker 3: and in twenty twenty four finished for the players that 81 00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:31,479 Speaker 3: made the cut. I think I could say this DFL 82 00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:33,240 Speaker 3: if I don't tell you what the F stands for. 83 00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:36,560 Speaker 3: But he finished sixtieth of the players that made the cut, 84 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:39,039 Speaker 3: and then it didn't make a cut after that. So 85 00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:41,080 Speaker 3: I think a lot of us were saying, all right, 86 00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:43,640 Speaker 3: this is it for Tiger Woods. I don't care. We 87 00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:46,400 Speaker 3: didn't see him at all. Last year. He had the 88 00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:50,000 Speaker 3: Achilles tendon injury. If Tiger Woods is giving us hope 89 00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:52,040 Speaker 3: that we could see him in the Masters in April, 90 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:53,040 Speaker 3: I am all for it. 91 00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:56,320 Speaker 2: I love this so much, in particular because of you. 92 00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:59,520 Speaker 2: You're usually so logical with your sport. 93 00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:00,240 Speaker 3: I try to be. 94 00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:03,880 Speaker 2: This is the little boy comes out here just. 95 00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:07,480 Speaker 4: Is so excited about Tiger Woods. So I love seeing 96 00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:09,640 Speaker 4: this side of you. I also think this is awesome. 97 00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:12,400 Speaker 2: This is awesome that it's still on the table because 98 00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:14,640 Speaker 2: I think you and I sat here wondering what was 99 00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:18,039 Speaker 2: gonna happen with Tiger Woods, what would he do, whether 100 00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:21,159 Speaker 2: he should just call it an awesome career. But he's 101 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:23,120 Speaker 2: still out there, and that's that. 102 00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:25,560 Speaker 4: No, that's it. That's all we needed to hear. 103 00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:28,039 Speaker 3: Think of the think of the alternative. I'm gonna have 104 00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:31,479 Speaker 3: todd Lewis ask me the question. We may want to 105 00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:33,400 Speaker 3: do the long pause so he can pause it, Rhyns, 106 00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:36,800 Speaker 3: but I'm gonna give you the the flip side of 107 00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:38,839 Speaker 3: what could have happened, all right, Todd Lewis, I'm gonna 108 00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:40,560 Speaker 3: play the role of Tiger Woods. Todd Lewis asked me 109 00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:41,000 Speaker 3: the question. 110 00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:45,640 Speaker 6: Final thing with you in regards to your recovery. Is 111 00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:47,039 Speaker 6: the Master's off the table for you? 112 00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:53,640 Speaker 3: Yes, wah wah wah. What a downer, right, What an 113 00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:55,279 Speaker 3: absolute downer that would have been. 114 00:05:55,600 --> 00:06:01,520 Speaker 4: But that also would have maybe not many people I think. 115 00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:03,960 Speaker 2: Would have been would have been surprised, but it would 116 00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:07,080 Speaker 2: have been a downer because this whole time we don't know, 117 00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:08,039 Speaker 2: we don't. 118 00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:10,159 Speaker 4: Know if he's calling it a career. We're hoping that 119 00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:12,240 Speaker 4: he hasn't called it a career. But if he would 120 00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:14,760 Speaker 4: have said yes, it would have been a downer. But 121 00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:16,839 Speaker 4: I just don't think people would have been that surprised. 122 00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:18,760 Speaker 3: Okay, one more time on the real one, not with 123 00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:21,279 Speaker 3: the long pause. This, this is the real reaction. 124 00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:25,159 Speaker 6: Final thing with you in regards to your recovery, is 125 00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:27,280 Speaker 6: the Masters off the table for you? 126 00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:30,680 Speaker 3: No, that's a tiger fist bump right there. We're not 127 00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:33,720 Speaker 3: on video, so only Manzi saw Jason was looking down. 128 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:36,839 Speaker 3: Isaac's paying attention to something else. That was a tiger 129 00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:39,360 Speaker 3: fistbump right up there, the upper cut. 130 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:40,800 Speaker 2: Let me tell you the only thing that would have 131 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:42,400 Speaker 2: made that better if you would have like twisted your 132 00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:43,600 Speaker 2: ankle while you did it, because I. 133 00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:45,360 Speaker 3: Didn't no more athletic than that No, I just didn't 134 00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:46,119 Speaker 3: know what you were doing. 135 00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:47,760 Speaker 4: I wasn't sure where you were going with it. 136 00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:48,800 Speaker 3: That. 137 00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:52,560 Speaker 4: Yes, that this is this is very, very exciting. 138 00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:56,680 Speaker 3: If he doesn't play, okay, that's fine, right, but doesn't matter. 139 00:06:56,800 --> 00:06:59,920 Speaker 3: We haven't seen him in the TGL the simular. 140 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:01,400 Speaker 4: Nobody needs to see any of that. 141 00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:04,719 Speaker 3: I like that. It's entertaining. You may not like it, Okay. 142 00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:06,599 Speaker 3: That is what I think was the big news of 143 00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:09,640 Speaker 3: the day from LA. There's other news out of LA 144 00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:14,440 Speaker 3: and this coming from a report from Dave mcminnimon of ESPN, 145 00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:19,880 Speaker 3: Lebron James' future with the Lakers may not be as 146 00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:23,720 Speaker 3: short lived as we would have thought. The reports from 147 00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:27,800 Speaker 3: Dave mcminnimmon is that the Lakers would be open to 148 00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:31,520 Speaker 3: welcoming Lebron back after this season. 149 00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:35,040 Speaker 4: Yeah. Are we surprised by that? 150 00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:37,560 Speaker 3: Yes, I am surprised. 151 00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:38,200 Speaker 4: Here's the thing. 152 00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:42,400 Speaker 2: Here's the thing, Dan, everyone's anticipating that Lebron has a 153 00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:45,320 Speaker 2: year like if he agrees to one more year, I 154 00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:47,920 Speaker 2: think it's gonna be his retirement tour and that he 155 00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:52,720 Speaker 2: ends with the Lakers, and the Lakers see the money 156 00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:57,000 Speaker 2: that would come in on a retirement tour with Lebron 157 00:07:57,120 --> 00:07:58,760 Speaker 2: James on your team and Luka Doncic. 158 00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:02,760 Speaker 4: They're not Uh, They're losing. 159 00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:04,280 Speaker 2: Lebron next year all of a sudden doesn't make the 160 00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 2: Lakers contenders. They would still have to make other moves, 161 00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:08,800 Speaker 2: in my opinion, So I feel like they're doing this 162 00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:10,440 Speaker 2: because they're like, are you gonna do this and retire? 163 00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:14,080 Speaker 2: Because we will happily be a part of your retirement tour. 164 00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:16,880 Speaker 2: Do you think that they're having this conversation for him 165 00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:18,840 Speaker 2: to do one more in LA and then go to Cleveland. 166 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:20,240 Speaker 4: I don't think that's the conversation. 167 00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:22,320 Speaker 3: You think that they would put up with all of. 168 00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:24,160 Speaker 4: This stuff for a farewell tour? 169 00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:27,680 Speaker 3: You think so. I if Genie Buss was still fully 170 00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:31,080 Speaker 3: in charge and now not just the governor but the 171 00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:33,720 Speaker 3: actual owner, and the Bus family still owned a majority 172 00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:36,480 Speaker 3: stake of the Lakers, I could see something like that. 173 00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:38,839 Speaker 3: To me, it doesn't make a lot of business sense, 174 00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:41,079 Speaker 3: and you're putting off the inevitable. You're putting off the 175 00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:44,760 Speaker 3: inevitable of Luca actually really taking control of this franchise, 176 00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:47,720 Speaker 3: and maybe even JJ Reddick's role for that matter. I 177 00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:50,600 Speaker 3: think it. I don't think that the Lakers have any 178 00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:53,400 Speaker 3: interest in Lebron coming back. I think this report was 179 00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:55,880 Speaker 3: put out so they don't have to answer to the 180 00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:58,960 Speaker 3: question of not wanting Lebron back. And I think that 181 00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:02,760 Speaker 3: the message that we got this past offseason was that, Yeah, 182 00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:04,880 Speaker 3: Lebron is going to play out this final year of 183 00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:08,400 Speaker 3: his contract. And it's Lebron's messaging of will I be 184 00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:11,800 Speaker 3: back will I not be back? Is all for his thoughts, 185 00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:14,160 Speaker 3: but for the Lakers, I think they've already I think 186 00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:15,880 Speaker 3: the Hayes in the Barn, I don't think they want 187 00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:18,520 Speaker 3: Lebron back, and whether he retires or go somewhere else, 188 00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:22,280 Speaker 3: that's his choice. But I don't believe in ounce that 189 00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:24,840 Speaker 3: the Lakers are open to it unless this is just 190 00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:27,040 Speaker 3: too and I believe that this was this is what 191 00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:29,960 Speaker 3: it is is to save face, not make waves for 192 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:31,960 Speaker 3: the rest of the season and into the playoffs, so 193 00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:34,760 Speaker 3: it doesn't become distract the distraction for this team as 194 00:09:34,760 --> 00:09:35,800 Speaker 3: they enter the postseason. 195 00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:38,600 Speaker 2: I think what you're saying makes perfect sense. I just 196 00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:41,880 Speaker 2: don't think this is coming from a position of loyalty 197 00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:43,760 Speaker 2: like with Jeanie Buss, how you point it out right, 198 00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:47,760 Speaker 2: I think this comes from a business perspective, where again 199 00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:50,400 Speaker 2: they're having those. I think the conversation is, well, we'll 200 00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:52,120 Speaker 2: take you one more year, but you're announcing that. 201 00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:52,520 Speaker 3: This is it. 202 00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:56,320 Speaker 2: This, that's the deal here. We don't want you, we 203 00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:58,520 Speaker 2: don't want you again. If this is it, if we 204 00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:00,880 Speaker 2: don't make this announcement before the season starts. 205 00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:03,880 Speaker 4: So I feel like there's truth. The truth is somewhere 206 00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:04,280 Speaker 4: in the middle. 207 00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:05,800 Speaker 3: Do you think they could trust him? Do you think 208 00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:07,440 Speaker 3: that they could trust him that this would be his 209 00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:08,360 Speaker 3: last season. 210 00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:12,000 Speaker 2: I think the only way we would they would make 211 00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:15,719 Speaker 2: that announcement hand in hand, we've extended Lebron James one 212 00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:17,880 Speaker 2: year for his final year. 213 00:10:17,760 --> 00:10:19,760 Speaker 4: In the NBA. That would be the announcement. 214 00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:20,160 Speaker 5: Yeah. 215 00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:24,920 Speaker 2: And then and then let's say he decides to not retire, 216 00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:27,240 Speaker 2: and let's. 217 00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:27,679 Speaker 4: Say he did that. 218 00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:31,560 Speaker 2: I I think that would make him look worse than 219 00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:34,040 Speaker 2: anyone else, which I don't know if Lebron cares about that, 220 00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:35,960 Speaker 2: because he just you know, he's just a forty two 221 00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:37,839 Speaker 2: year old, goof forty one year old, goofy kid who 222 00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:39,679 Speaker 2: just wants to live just like the rest of us. 223 00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:41,160 Speaker 4: So I don't, I don't. 224 00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:44,120 Speaker 2: I just think that would be way worse for him 225 00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:46,439 Speaker 2: than it would be for the Lakers if he's literally 226 00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:47,400 Speaker 2: like one more year. 227 00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:48,600 Speaker 4: But I finish it with you guys. 228 00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:50,800 Speaker 3: I don't want to see him in a Lakers uniform 229 00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:53,600 Speaker 3: like I just like I am. I am so done 230 00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:55,240 Speaker 3: with this era. And that's why I think that the 231 00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:58,280 Speaker 3: Lakers aren't. When Lebron had the opportunity to answer that 232 00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:01,240 Speaker 3: question this past weekend, which was the weird question. We 233 00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:04,200 Speaker 3: talked about it yesterday on the question of what's it 234 00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:05,920 Speaker 3: like to play in the All Star Game in LA 235 00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:06,760 Speaker 3: and he said. 236 00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:08,200 Speaker 4: Is not in our buildings? Shut up? 237 00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:13,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, Okay, that's that was Clippers fan Monty talking right. 238 00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:18,320 Speaker 3: He had every opportunity to take that that that weird, 239 00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:22,680 Speaker 3: weirdly phrased question and use it to his good and 240 00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:27,080 Speaker 3: he chose not to. He chose not to become someone 241 00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:29,920 Speaker 3: of LA, which is a point that Jason Stewart has 242 00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:33,760 Speaker 3: talked about that Isaac and many others I've been in 243 00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:37,079 Speaker 3: on the conversation that Lebron being embraced by LA is 244 00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:40,520 Speaker 3: also Lebron maybe not fully embracing LA himself, and so 245 00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:44,000 Speaker 3: there's a there's a war of wills there. But he 246 00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:46,520 Speaker 3: had every opportunity to and that could have laid if 247 00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:49,760 Speaker 3: you would have said, I love LA. I love LA 248 00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:54,240 Speaker 3: from Inglewood to Santa Clarita, all the way from Santa 249 00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:57,360 Speaker 3: Monica out to San Bernardino. I love it, and it's 250 00:11:57,440 --> 00:12:00,000 Speaker 3: naming cities. And then he's there, No, what is he saying, 251 00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:02,280 Speaker 3: it's not a home game for me, it's not a 252 00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:04,679 Speaker 3: home game. I think his home is actually closer too 253 00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:07,680 Speaker 3: into a dome than it is Crypto dot Com. So 254 00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:11,040 Speaker 3: his shorter trip when he actually does have to go 255 00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:14,439 Speaker 3: to the game, but he did not take the opportunity 256 00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:17,400 Speaker 3: to do so, which tells me that he doesn't necessarily 257 00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:20,000 Speaker 3: have an interest in being in LA. And after those comments, 258 00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:22,280 Speaker 3: I feel it puts the Lakers in a great spot 259 00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:25,120 Speaker 3: to say, yeah, we'd welcome him back, knowing full while 260 00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:26,000 Speaker 3: it's not gonna happen. 261 00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:28,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, we'd welcome him back if he retires. 262 00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:30,400 Speaker 2: That's just the part I think of the conversation they're 263 00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:32,320 Speaker 2: not telling us and everything you just said that is 264 00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:33,160 Speaker 2: I know what you're saying. 265 00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:34,160 Speaker 4: That is soul Lebron. 266 00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:36,760 Speaker 2: Look at what he's done where it's like he at 267 00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:39,520 Speaker 2: the same time pushes that he is a Laker, he 268 00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:41,440 Speaker 2: wants to be an all time great Laker, but at 269 00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:44,520 Speaker 2: the same time, doesn't associate himself with the entire Los 270 00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:49,360 Speaker 2: Angeles picture. He just associates himself as a Laker, like Hollywood. Like, 271 00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:51,600 Speaker 2: I feel like that's what Lebron cares about. And that's 272 00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:54,880 Speaker 2: why even though I've said before that, yeah, go to Cleveland, 273 00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:58,120 Speaker 2: Cleveland and end your career there, I think for his 274 00:12:58,240 --> 00:12:58,839 Speaker 2: purpose of. 275 00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:02,880 Speaker 4: He seems to me like once he's done return, we're 276 00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:03,559 Speaker 4: gonna see. 277 00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:06,080 Speaker 2: Him like in movies and shows, and he's gonna go 278 00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:09,000 Speaker 2: and like be part of Hollywood in some way. So 279 00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:11,600 Speaker 2: I feel like he does not as much as like 280 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:15,400 Speaker 2: Cleveland sounds good, I think staying with the Lakers is 281 00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:18,079 Speaker 2: not that bad because of his ultimate picture, and which 282 00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:18,840 Speaker 2: is why I think he came to the. 283 00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:21,520 Speaker 4: Lakers in the first place, because he wants the Hollywood life. 284 00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:24,000 Speaker 4: He thinks, you know, he's. 285 00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:25,240 Speaker 3: Yeah that cool something. 286 00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:27,560 Speaker 4: He wants to play himself in the story of Lebron James. 287 00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:33,000 Speaker 3: There's there's also something of I mean, you're a native here, yes, 288 00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:35,640 Speaker 3: I think everybody else on staff is a native, right, 289 00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:40,760 Speaker 3: You're a Native Southern Californian Ryan Smith, San Jose, California. Okay, 290 00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:44,360 Speaker 3: all right, so he's not He's Californian. But so he's, oh, yeah, Raiders, 291 00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:49,719 Speaker 3: sorry about that. My bad. But I'm not from California, 292 00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:53,640 Speaker 3: and but I've lived here twenty years and my wife 293 00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:59,160 Speaker 3: gives me crap because at one point somebody asked me that, like, like, 294 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:04,040 Speaker 3: where's your home and I said, I reside in La. Okay, 295 00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:06,560 Speaker 3: she still hasn't made me forget about it. Yeah, but 296 00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:10,760 Speaker 3: I think that there is a someone from out of town. 297 00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:12,600 Speaker 3: I'm not saying that this is an excuse for Lebron. 298 00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:15,760 Speaker 3: It's tough to embrace La as your city when you're 299 00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:18,559 Speaker 3: not from here. It's also so different than any other 300 00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:21,440 Speaker 3: city in the entire country that you would go like, 301 00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:24,640 Speaker 3: there's certain cities that are like, all right, that one's 302 00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:26,160 Speaker 3: not too much different than that one, that one's not 303 00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:28,680 Speaker 3: too much different than that one. But LA's completely different. 304 00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:30,600 Speaker 3: So I think that there could be a part of 305 00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:34,720 Speaker 3: that with like Lebron, Like I actually kind of get it, alright, 306 00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:38,760 Speaker 3: he's not an LA guy. But I just think of 307 00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:43,280 Speaker 3: the grand scheme of how everything plays out, that even 308 00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:46,720 Speaker 3: if Lebron and the Lakers had an agreement because he's 309 00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:50,360 Speaker 3: not an LA guy, because he is a Lebron guy, 310 00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:54,480 Speaker 3: that you still couldn't trust him to actually retire when 311 00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:56,640 Speaker 3: he says he's going to retire. And I don't think 312 00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:58,760 Speaker 3: they'll ever be a point where he will fully embrace 313 00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:01,400 Speaker 3: Los Angeles. I don't think they'll ever be a point 314 00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:06,240 Speaker 3: where the Laker fans in the city fully embraces Lebron James. 315 00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:09,760 Speaker 3: So it's figuring out what's best for everyone involved right now. 316 00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:11,720 Speaker 3: It's best for the Lakers to lie saying they want 317 00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:13,840 Speaker 3: them back, and it'll be best for Lebron to probably 318 00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:14,720 Speaker 3: leave after this year. 319 00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:16,560 Speaker 2: Off the top of your head, because you're good with 320 00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:20,040 Speaker 2: remembering details like this, he's has he been a Laker 321 00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:20,880 Speaker 2: the most? 322 00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:23,520 Speaker 3: He's been a Calve the most he's been a most 323 00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:24,360 Speaker 3: second with the Lakers. 324 00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:28,000 Speaker 2: How many years was he a Calve? So between the 325 00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:29,320 Speaker 2: two stints. 326 00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:31,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, so it's been eight years with the Lakers. 327 00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:34,040 Speaker 4: Eight that's okay, eight years out of twenty three. 328 00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:38,960 Speaker 3: Yes, and so in Lebron, let me just put just 329 00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:41,480 Speaker 3: basketball references. Yeah, not to put you on you, just 330 00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:43,840 Speaker 3: usually I know they have the easiest way of it. 331 00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:46,000 Speaker 3: Just gives you the exactly eleven years with the Caves 332 00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:47,880 Speaker 3: is eleven years with. 333 00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:50,920 Speaker 4: The cas eleven years? Huh, huh was that long between 334 00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:51,480 Speaker 4: the two stints? 335 00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:52,960 Speaker 2: I didn't feel like that, to be honest with you, 336 00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:54,760 Speaker 2: I thought it was coming up to like eight and 337 00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:55,240 Speaker 2: nine years. 338 00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:56,400 Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying that I was a little 339 00:15:56,440 --> 00:15:57,280 Speaker 4: bit closer than that. 340 00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:01,400 Speaker 2: Okay, okay, oh yeah, I hear what you saying. I 341 00:16:01,760 --> 00:16:06,000 Speaker 2: think there is a legit possibility that he is a 342 00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:08,240 Speaker 2: Laker and ends as a Laker his career. 343 00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:10,880 Speaker 3: Jason Stewart's voice was heard, Jason, what do you got? 344 00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:13,960 Speaker 5: So it sounds like you guys disagree on at least 345 00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:16,920 Speaker 5: one aspect of this that the Lakers do want to back. 346 00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:22,000 Speaker 5: Dan doesn't believe the Lakers' response to this right. So, 347 00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:25,440 Speaker 5: let me remember a few weeks ago when Baxter Holmes 348 00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:28,800 Speaker 5: came out with that explosive piece and basically said that 349 00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:32,560 Speaker 5: Genie Buss it was sick of Lebron how he handled 350 00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:35,720 Speaker 5: the Russell Westbrook thing, how that he wasn't what he 351 00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:38,600 Speaker 5: didn't show enough gratitude in the wake of the Brawny thing. 352 00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:42,200 Speaker 5: And then the next day she completely denied, saying that, well, 353 00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:44,880 Speaker 5: Baxter Holmes is very entrenched with the team. I think 354 00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:47,840 Speaker 5: everybody believed that he was speaking on her behalf or 355 00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:50,200 Speaker 5: at least quoting the right person, and then she just 356 00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:52,800 Speaker 5: denied it, and then nothing was made to that. So 357 00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:56,240 Speaker 5: I put this comment by the Lakers on that same refrain. 358 00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:59,360 Speaker 5: They're going to say all the right things publicly behind 359 00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:00,760 Speaker 5: the scenes, I don't think they're going to. 360 00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:04,680 Speaker 2: Make this work go ahead and Monto no, I'm telling 361 00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:07,040 Speaker 2: you it has to be tied to him retiring. And 362 00:17:07,119 --> 00:17:10,679 Speaker 2: I feel like it's just purely a business standpoint for 363 00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:14,520 Speaker 2: the Lakers. If you could, if you could end Lebron's 364 00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:17,600 Speaker 2: career with with you, wouldn't you like, like it's over? 365 00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:20,560 Speaker 2: Can you imagine the amount of people, the amount of 366 00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:23,240 Speaker 2: attention that that you already have. But I just think 367 00:17:23,240 --> 00:17:27,360 Speaker 2: it's a business standpoint. And also seeing like the late 368 00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:29,400 Speaker 2: like the Clippers and what they just did with James 369 00:17:29,440 --> 00:17:31,320 Speaker 2: Harden after only two and a half years, and how 370 00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:33,480 Speaker 2: sad the fans were. You just saw what happened with 371 00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:36,080 Speaker 2: the MAVs and Luka Lancic. I feel like seeing all that, 372 00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:38,320 Speaker 2: it's kind of like, are we we. 373 00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:40,560 Speaker 4: We can end this dude's career. We don't want to. 374 00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:43,240 Speaker 4: But if he wants to do it one more year, fine, 375 00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:44,240 Speaker 4: bring in the money. 376 00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:47,159 Speaker 3: I I don't know if they want a statue of 377 00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:48,320 Speaker 3: Lebron outside of. 378 00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:50,520 Speaker 4: Well, they have a lot, so it's fine. 379 00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:54,000 Speaker 3: I know, got the Oscar de la Hoya. I know 380 00:17:54,040 --> 00:17:56,720 Speaker 3: that the bar is low. But I also don't know 381 00:17:56,760 --> 00:18:00,400 Speaker 3: if they want to be beholden to the Lebron the era. 382 00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:03,960 Speaker 2: You're saying that one more year makes a statue or not. 383 00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:05,239 Speaker 2: I think the statue is coming no matter what. 384 00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:08,840 Speaker 3: I know. I'm not saying that, but I'm saying that 385 00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:11,280 Speaker 3: if he does stick around and it gives them more 386 00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:13,800 Speaker 3: of an opportunity to do so, and if you were 387 00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:17,560 Speaker 3: to leave and go, I'll swear then you don't maybe 388 00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:21,640 Speaker 3: have that warm and fuzziness. And maybe he will. Maybe 389 00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:23,600 Speaker 3: they'll just give into the greatness so they can say 390 00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:27,480 Speaker 3: that they have a Lebron statue out there. But for 391 00:18:27,560 --> 00:18:30,719 Speaker 3: the for the Lakers of the Lakers, I don't know 392 00:18:30,760 --> 00:18:34,720 Speaker 3: if they really want him to be put into the 393 00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:37,479 Speaker 3: all time great greats with Kobe and Magic. 394 00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:39,480 Speaker 4: He thinks he's already there. 395 00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:41,800 Speaker 3: He does, Yeah, so do many. 396 00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:44,000 Speaker 4: Fans think he's you know what I'm saying, like and so. 397 00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:46,439 Speaker 3: By allowing him to have that like Swan song and 398 00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:49,800 Speaker 3: to play nine years with the team and almost rival 399 00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:53,479 Speaker 3: is Cavaliers time and go out as a Laker lends 400 00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:56,800 Speaker 3: to all of that stuff of Lebron post being a 401 00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:58,800 Speaker 3: Laker and a Cavalier and having it the best of 402 00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:01,160 Speaker 3: both worlds. If he leaves, if he went back to Cleveland, 403 00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:03,960 Speaker 3: I think it closes the door on some of those opportunities. 404 00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:05,240 Speaker 4: All Right, this is gonna happen, Guys. 405 00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:07,679 Speaker 2: He's gonna sign an extension with the Lakers for one 406 00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:09,639 Speaker 2: year and it's gonna be a he's gonna retire, and 407 00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:11,800 Speaker 2: then he's gonna take a year off and in three 408 00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:12,639 Speaker 2: years when we're. 409 00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:15,040 Speaker 4: Talking that he's coming back to gaps. That's it. 410 00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:17,800 Speaker 3: What would you What do you think? Luka donc just 411 00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:22,280 Speaker 3: wants oh bye think you So that's the that's the answer. 412 00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:25,040 Speaker 3: That's the answer. What the Lakers want. It's not what anybody. 413 00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:25,960 Speaker 3: That's what Luca wants. 414 00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:29,679 Speaker 5: I also Monsi's looking at this from the standpoint of 415 00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:32,800 Speaker 5: what's the best business for the Lakers or retirement tour. 416 00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:36,159 Speaker 5: Lebron or James is all about what's in what's in 417 00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:38,679 Speaker 5: the best interest for me, what's gonna be my best 418 00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:41,200 Speaker 5: final ending, And in his mind, I think that's a 419 00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:42,960 Speaker 5: caps no. 420 00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:45,159 Speaker 4: Yes, yeah, I I think so. 421 00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:48,320 Speaker 2: But I also think that Lebron has surprised us, and 422 00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:50,920 Speaker 2: I do think that there is something where he does 423 00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:53,360 Speaker 2: want to be considered a Laker. 424 00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:53,840 Speaker 4: All time great. 425 00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:56,960 Speaker 2: I do think he wants that whatever happens with Cleve, 426 00:19:57,080 --> 00:19:59,800 Speaker 2: he's always going to be the guy from Cleveland, you 427 00:19:59,840 --> 00:20:02,880 Speaker 2: know him going to the Calves would be really nice, Yes, 428 00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:06,520 Speaker 2: but cav Cleveland, the Cavaliers, the already. 429 00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:08,160 Speaker 4: Love him whether he comes back or not. I think 430 00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:12,040 Speaker 4: he's trying to cement himself as a Laker. He needs that. 431 00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:15,440 Speaker 3: Lebron has always loved the love of other greats. Yes, 432 00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:20,199 Speaker 3: And the one thing that I think hurts him is 433 00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:24,440 Speaker 3: that pat Riley doesn't love him anymore, that he spurned 434 00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:27,920 Speaker 3: pat Riley, and that there really is never a path 435 00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:30,359 Speaker 3: to go back to the Heat. I think it would 436 00:20:30,359 --> 00:20:33,000 Speaker 3: be better for Lebron. I think you would rather go 437 00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:35,120 Speaker 3: back to the Heat than go back to the Lakers 438 00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:38,760 Speaker 3: next year. I think that that's that's what Lebron would 439 00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:41,160 Speaker 3: want to do, like to patch things up. He always 440 00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:44,320 Speaker 3: wanted to be liked by Kobe. He did, he did, Yes, 441 00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:48,720 Speaker 3: he did. And so I think when pat Riley and 442 00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:50,280 Speaker 3: the Heat are like Okay, You're dead to us, you 443 00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:53,800 Speaker 3: left us for Cleveland and still have pretty much bend 444 00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:56,879 Speaker 3: that way. If there was a if there was a 445 00:20:57,080 --> 00:21:00,040 Speaker 3: mending of the fences or a happy way out, he 446 00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:02,280 Speaker 3: would go to Miami before he would be a Laker 447 00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:02,720 Speaker 3: next year. 448 00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:04,919 Speaker 2: Which if you truly think that, then why do you 449 00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:07,080 Speaker 2: think he wants to go to Cleveland to wrap up 450 00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:07,440 Speaker 2: the career? 451 00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:10,560 Speaker 3: Because I think that's Numero uno, Like that's the perfect bowl, 452 00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:13,680 Speaker 3: the final, the final straw. At the end of Lebron's 453 00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:15,560 Speaker 3: time in Cleveland, I think the Calves were even kind 454 00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:18,320 Speaker 3: of like, Okay, all right, we're probably not gonna win 455 00:21:18,359 --> 00:21:20,679 Speaker 3: one with you here. Warriors are like, let's just move on. 456 00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:22,959 Speaker 3: Everybody knew what was going to happen. He signed right 457 00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:25,960 Speaker 3: away with the Lakers in that offseason. Now enough time's 458 00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:28,159 Speaker 3: gone away, you can appreciate him and have them right 459 00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:30,439 Speaker 3: off into the sunset. But I think Miami would be 460 00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:33,360 Speaker 3: more of a better option for Lebron than actually coming 461 00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:34,119 Speaker 3: back to the Lakers. 462 00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:37,800 Speaker 2: But Miami just doesn't finish the story. The story can 463 00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:40,240 Speaker 2: be wrapped up in Cleveland or La. 464 00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:43,840 Speaker 3: I think that the Heat is almost a better ending. 465 00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:46,560 Speaker 3: I just don't think there's anything I don't think there's 466 00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:49,840 Speaker 3: anything of substance to La he resides here. This is 467 00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:53,359 Speaker 3: not his home. She's wants to Bilanios. I'm dampier. That 468 00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:55,720 Speaker 3: was just a shot at me for saying reside. That's 469 00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:56,320 Speaker 3: all it was. 470 00:21:56,560 --> 00:21:59,159 Speaker 7: Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in 471 00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:01,919 Speaker 7: the nation.

But the real 507 00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:44,080 Speaker 3: story was the report from Dave mcmanhamhon of ESPN saying 508 00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:49,119 Speaker 3: the Lakers would welcome Lebron James back, would be willing 509 00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:52,160 Speaker 3: to welcome him back for a twenty fourth season if 510 00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:55,639 Speaker 3: he were to decide to play next year.

Yes, because six minutes ago, the Lakers posted 516 00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:24,600 Speaker 3: a tweet Los Angeles Luca with a post that has 517 00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:29,960 Speaker 3: Luka Doncic's seventy seven, a street sign that just says 518 00:24:30,040 --> 00:24:33,480 Speaker 3: Doncic and the quote by Luka Doncic that says being 519 00:24:33,520 --> 00:24:35,920 Speaker 3: welcomed by the fans.

Based on 529 00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:06,560 Speaker 2: the story that was released earlier today, No, yeah, it doesn't. 530 00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:10,520 Speaker 2: It definitely does not help my thought, my argument. 531 00:25:11,080 --> 00:25:13,160 Speaker 3: Who is a source that says he wants him back 532 00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:15,679 Speaker 3: because the Lakers just put up a graphic And one 533 00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:17,640 Speaker 3: of the reasons why I didn't think he would want 534 00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:20,280 Speaker 3: to come back or the Lakers would want him back 535 00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:22,440 Speaker 3: next year is because they want to give this team 536 00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:24,640 Speaker 3: to Luca And that sure seems to be. 537 00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:30,880 Speaker 2: No, absolutely, absolutely no that I'm telling you there's that's 538 00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:31,840 Speaker 2: the timing of that. 539 00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:34,320 Speaker 3: If this tweet was a band, it would be Tom 540 00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:38,119 Speaker 3: Petty and the Heartbreakers, because this is Pette. This is 541 00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:39,520 Speaker 3: very very petty. 542 00:25:39,760 --> 00:25:43,280 Speaker 2: No, whoever the admin is for that, good job, good job, 543 00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:45,160 Speaker 2: because you sent the message without sending the mass. 544 00:25:45,359 --> 00:25:47,720 Speaker 3: Yes, yes he did, he really did. Just the quote, 545 00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:49,920 Speaker 3: especially on the heels of Lebron's quote of like it's 546 00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:52,520 Speaker 3: a road game and he's like, hey, new guy, new city. 547 00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:55,679 Speaker 3: Everything's great, everything's awesome.

So this was 549 00:25:58,160 --> 00:26:01,399 Speaker 3: a beautiful picture of palm trees in the background. This 550 00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:06,000 Speaker 3: is responding by not responding. By responding, this shot is. 551 00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:09,040 Speaker 2: More effective of all the jerseys or on the seats 552 00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:11,640 Speaker 2: the seventy seven in his first one of the first games, 553 00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:13,879 Speaker 2: I think is when they did that.

That's all right. 629 00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:54,840 Speaker 3: Lebron just had the opportunity on an awful question to 630 00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:57,320 Speaker 3: take it wherever he wanted, and he just let everybody 631 00:29:57,360 --> 00:29:59,560 Speaker 3: know that he didn't care about playing the All Star 632 00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:02,560 Speaker 3: Game at the into it though, But Lebron does care 633 00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:06,520 Speaker 3: about giving up something during Lent. And this is what 634 00:30:06,640 --> 00:30:07,920 Speaker 3: Lebron's apparently giving up. 635 00:30:08,400 --> 00:30:09,400 Speaker 5: I stopped drinking. 636 00:30:11,200 --> 00:30:14,760 Speaker 6: True story is true story to when I stopped drinking. 637 00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:17,479 Speaker 3: So I wasn't playing as obviously as the season started, 638 00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:20,600 Speaker 3: you know, so I needed to give up something. 639 00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:23,760 Speaker 5: I got to sacrifice something. And I actually did two 640 00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:24,400 Speaker 5: things that I. 641 00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:28,720 Speaker 3: Very love, and that is drinking wine and my chocolate 642 00:30:28,800 --> 00:30:33,520 Speaker 3: chip cookies. But dessert, I completely took it out, took 643 00:30:33,520 --> 00:30:34,960 Speaker 3: it out for the season. I'm sorry. I thought it 644 00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:36,520 Speaker 3: was for Lent. I thought it was coming up. My 645 00:30:36,880 --> 00:30:39,240 Speaker 3: bad on the mind of the Game podcast. He's giving 646 00:30:39,320 --> 00:30:47,080 Speaker 3: up wine, which spelling good work. I think we know 647 00:30:47,120 --> 00:30:50,840 Speaker 3: it's wy any considering what we've seen this year and 648 00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:54,840 Speaker 3: chocolate chip cookies. I am fixated on the chocolate chip 649 00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:58,880 Speaker 3: cookies part. I didn't realize that it was wine as well. 650 00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:02,840 Speaker 3: Could you be an easy one to just give up wine? 651 00:31:03,120 --> 00:31:04,720 Speaker 4: I could give up wine. I could. 652 00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:07,320 Speaker 2: I do enjoy a glass of red wine, but I 653 00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:08,240 Speaker 2: could give up wine. 654 00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:11,320 Speaker 4: That would not be as hard as others. 655 00:31:11,600 --> 00:31:14,640 Speaker 3: What's tougher. Chocolate chip cookie or wine? 656 00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:15,720 Speaker 4: Chocolate chip cookie? 657 00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:19,200 Speaker 3: That's tougher for me? Yes, I love a good chocolate 658 00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:22,120 Speaker 3: chip cookie. I love chocolate chip cookie dough, I love 659 00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:25,680 Speaker 3: all oh yeah. But it is very specific. It is 660 00:31:25,720 --> 00:31:30,840 Speaker 3: a very specific choice that Lebron made. That would be 661 00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:35,760 Speaker 3: like I'm saying, I'm giving up terioki flavored beef jerkey 662 00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:43,240 Speaker 3: original hot, sweet and sour or sweet and spicy barbecube. 663 00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:46,240 Speaker 3: Just don't touch the teriaki beef jerkey. That's where I 664 00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:49,840 Speaker 3: think Lebron has found. The loophole is chocolate chip cookies. 665 00:31:49,880 --> 00:31:52,080 Speaker 3: He could have any cookie, just can't have chocolate chips. 666 00:31:52,080 --> 00:31:53,720 Speaker 3: And he can have chocolate, just can't be in the 667 00:31:53,800 --> 00:31:57,640 Speaker 3: chocolate chip cookie form. So it's Lebron taking the high 668 00:31:57,720 --> 00:31:58,920 Speaker 3: road on giving things. 669 00:31:58,720 --> 00:32:02,800 Speaker 2: Up, correct, right, he's leading it way open. Absolutely, I'm 670 00:32:02,800 --> 00:32:05,520 Speaker 2: giving up sugar and cookies. You know, I'm giving up 671 00:32:05,600 --> 00:32:08,040 Speaker 2: chocolate chip. First of all, how many chocolate chip cookies 672 00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:10,920 Speaker 2: were you eating to find the need to give that up? 673 00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:14,000 Speaker 2: And also, like you said, so, if I put an 674 00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:17,600 Speaker 2: oreo in front of you, a snicker doodle, a white 675 00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:21,280 Speaker 2: chocolate macadamia, yeah, you're not gonna You're not gonna get 676 00:32:21,320 --> 00:32:21,720 Speaker 2: out of that. 677 00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:27,080 Speaker 3: Nice uh nice uh uh?

They're not chocolate chip, chocolate chip. That's that's 682 00:32:41,040 --> 00:32:43,240 Speaker 3: the easy way out. Do you give up anything? Do 683 00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:44,200 Speaker 3: you give up anything for lent? 684 00:32:44,360 --> 00:32:46,680 Speaker 4: Yeah?

We're glad that you're hanging out with Manty 852 00:40:40,520 --> 00:40:44,680 Speaker 3: and myself here on Fox Sports Radio. But we ordered 853 00:40:44,719 --> 00:40:49,000 Speaker 3: pizzas for a March madness, and I ordered I probably 854 00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:51,160 Speaker 3: ordered a pepperoni, and then I ordered like a half 855 00:40:51,239 --> 00:40:54,040 Speaker 3: cheese and half sausage, not realizing that it was lent. 856 00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:58,000 Speaker 3: And Big Mike, the guy who doesn't run this place, 857 00:40:58,719 --> 00:41:01,320 Speaker 3: goes and I have a rule by when I take pizza, 858 00:41:01,440 --> 00:41:03,400 Speaker 3: even at home, as soon as the pizza's out of 859 00:41:03,400 --> 00:41:05,759 Speaker 3: the oven, I take one slice. I don't take two. 860 00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:08,359 Speaker 3: I don't take three. I have one slice, and after 861 00:41:08,400 --> 00:41:13,520 Speaker 3: that I will load up. Yes, and uh, I'm gonna 862 00:41:13,560 --> 00:41:17,480 Speaker 3: take two slices of cheese. So Big Mike took fifty 863 00:41:17,600 --> 00:41:22,719 Speaker 3: percent of the cheese pizza that was available, so there 864 00:41:22,760 --> 00:41:26,759 Speaker 3: were two slices left. Other people were also participating in Lent. 865 00:41:27,560 --> 00:41:30,399 Speaker 3: And John Ramos, who was at the spot where Ryan 866 00:41:30,480 --> 00:41:33,040 Speaker 3: Smith sits, And if you're listening in your car, Ryan 867 00:41:33,080 --> 00:41:35,520 Speaker 3: Smith can't leave. He has to sit there. Maybe during 868 00:41:35,520 --> 00:41:37,440 Speaker 3: the commercial break he could go use the restroom or 869 00:41:37,440 --> 00:41:40,040 Speaker 3: grab something to drink, but he cannot leave. By the 870 00:41:40,120 --> 00:41:43,160 Speaker 3: time our show went to break, all of the cheese 871 00:41:43,200 --> 00:41:47,439 Speaker 3: pizza is gone for John Ramos and then John John 872 00:41:47,600 --> 00:41:50,279 Speaker 3: was really ticked off about it, But it was it 873 00:41:50,320 --> 00:41:53,560 Speaker 3: was really Big Mike who took the double slices of cheese, 874 00:41:54,080 --> 00:41:58,000 Speaker 3: which then led to the next time we ordered, we 875 00:41:58,160 --> 00:42:02,040 Speaker 3: ordered six pizzas and burshing or ordered three cheese pizzas. 876 00:42:02,080 --> 00:42:05,400 Speaker 3: Like it was so out of whack that of the 877 00:42:05,400 --> 00:42:07,640 Speaker 3: the amount of By the way, we had two and 878 00:42:07,920 --> 00:42:10,560 Speaker 3: like two and a half cheese pizzas left over that 879 00:42:10,640 --> 00:42:13,200 Speaker 3: day because then no one else was eating cheese anymore. 880 00:42:13,680 --> 00:42:16,839 Speaker 2: The thing is, like everyone can have cheese everyone. It 881 00:42:16,840 --> 00:42:19,239 Speaker 2: doesn't matter what you eat. Do you eat pizza, you 882 00:42:19,280 --> 00:42:22,879 Speaker 2: can have cheese now, Big mic he didn't respect the game. 883 00:42:22,920 --> 00:42:23,400 Speaker 3: No, he did that. 884 00:42:23,480 --> 00:42:25,600 Speaker 4: He didn't respect the game. That's one hundred percent sure. 885 00:42:25,840 --> 00:42:28,080 Speaker 2: The excess and cheese, I understand what you're saying, but 886 00:42:28,160 --> 00:42:30,000 Speaker 2: like everyone can have it, you know what I mean, 887 00:42:30,120 --> 00:42:32,440 Speaker 2: Like when it comes to certain meat, I don't mind 888 00:42:32,480 --> 00:42:35,680 Speaker 2: taking pepperoni off my pizza, but sometimes there's other types 889 00:42:35,680 --> 00:42:38,479 Speaker 2: of toppings where it's like the meat is crumbled or. 890 00:42:38,400 --> 00:42:40,759 Speaker 4: Like cut up really small and I can't take it off. 891 00:42:40,840 --> 00:42:42,879 Speaker 5: I do, but that's a part of the argument here. 892 00:42:43,480 --> 00:42:46,000 Speaker 5: John would not remove the pepperoni because I think in 893 00:42:46,040 --> 00:42:49,480 Speaker 5: his religion, like even the juice of the pepperoni was 894 00:42:49,600 --> 00:42:52,320 Speaker 5: violating something in the Christian world. 895 00:42:52,760 --> 00:42:56,319 Speaker 2: Not everybody, yes, not everybody would take the pieces off 896 00:42:56,320 --> 00:42:58,960 Speaker 2: your one hundred percent right, especially during this time when 897 00:42:59,000 --> 00:43:01,040 Speaker 2: you're not supposed to be eating I think meat only 898 00:43:01,040 --> 00:43:01,840 Speaker 2: on Fridays, right, I. 899 00:43:02,760 --> 00:43:05,799 Speaker 4: Yeah, uh huh, And so no, Big Mike didn't respect. 900 00:43:05,520 --> 00:43:08,319 Speaker 3: The game, which, by the way, then reminds me that 901 00:43:08,360 --> 00:43:11,120 Speaker 3: the Popeyes fish sandwich will be back for the next 902 00:43:11,160 --> 00:43:13,920 Speaker 3: couple of weeks. Popeyes used to have fish on their 903 00:43:13,960 --> 00:43:18,080 Speaker 3: menu and it was awesome. It was great. Now they 904 00:43:18,120 --> 00:43:20,560 Speaker 3: only bring it back the fish sandwich for lents sense, 905 00:43:20,600 --> 00:43:23,480 Speaker 3: which should be back. And obviously the filea fish at McDonald's. 906 00:43:23,920 --> 00:43:24,879 Speaker 4: Everybody loves that one. 907 00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:27,719 Speaker 3: Yes, absolutely So it's that time of year, so that's good. 908 00:43:27,880 --> 00:43:29,759 Speaker 3: I'm just gonna say this to wrap up the lent 909 00:43:29,960 --> 00:43:34,160 Speaker 3: Lunar New Year Marty grat talk. It's about sports teams. 910 00:43:34,920 --> 00:43:37,839 Speaker 3: Like I as a kid had a favorite sports team. 911 00:43:37,880 --> 00:43:40,760 Speaker 3: For my favorite teams in the NHL, I don't watch 912 00:43:40,760 --> 00:43:44,239 Speaker 3: hockey anymore, like so I'm not like cheering for those teams. 913 00:43:44,520 --> 00:43:47,000 Speaker 3: I think as you get older, you have to leave 914 00:43:47,040 --> 00:43:49,160 Speaker 3: stuff by the wayside. So I'm not telling you to 915 00:43:49,239 --> 00:43:52,879 Speaker 3: leave your team by the wayside after, you know, for 916 00:43:53,040 --> 00:43:58,040 Speaker 3: six weeks of now until until Easter. It's not what 917 00:43:58,080 --> 00:44:01,239 Speaker 3: I'm saying. What I'm saying is I just if you're 918 00:44:01,239 --> 00:44:04,560 Speaker 3: a die hard fan of four teams, that's a lot. 919 00:44:04,680 --> 00:44:05,439 Speaker 4: That is a lot of work. 920 00:44:05,719 --> 00:44:08,000 Speaker 3: That's and the reason I just I say, like with 921 00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:10,840 Speaker 3: with the nfl A, Major League Baseball, NBA, and NHL, 922 00:44:11,080 --> 00:44:13,600 Speaker 3: there are fans in Philadelphia who you're You're fans of 923 00:44:13,640 --> 00:44:15,520 Speaker 3: the Eagles, your fans of the Phillies, your fans of 924 00:44:15,560 --> 00:44:19,040 Speaker 3: the Sixers, you're fans of the Flyers, And I just 925 00:44:19,040 --> 00:44:20,840 Speaker 3: think it would be a lot to be die hard 926 00:44:20,880 --> 00:44:23,560 Speaker 3: in every single one of those, right, And so the 927 00:44:23,600 --> 00:44:25,000 Speaker 3: way that I was going to try to tie it 928 00:44:25,000 --> 00:44:28,279 Speaker 3: into the sports fans sort of thing is like, all right, 929 00:44:28,280 --> 00:44:29,480 Speaker 3: did you have to give up a team? 930 00:44:29,719 --> 00:44:29,879 Speaker 7: Yes? 931 00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:33,080 Speaker 3: Did you have to give up something? And that's and 932 00:44:33,160 --> 00:44:35,040 Speaker 3: so at some point I think certain things fall to 933 00:44:35,040 --> 00:44:39,000 Speaker 3: the wayside while other teams stay up there, and it 934 00:44:39,040 --> 00:44:41,040 Speaker 3: even means more when they end up winning. 935 00:44:41,080 --> 00:44:42,759 Speaker 2: And I think that's just part of growing up, right, 936 00:44:42,880 --> 00:44:45,160 Speaker 2: Like I feel like your friends, you also start to 937 00:44:45,200 --> 00:44:47,359 Speaker 2: kind of lose friends as you grow up that were 938 00:44:47,400 --> 00:44:50,160 Speaker 2: your closest friends, and like, you may keep in contact, 939 00:44:50,160 --> 00:44:52,480 Speaker 2: but you kind of focus in on the ones that 940 00:44:52,520 --> 00:44:54,960 Speaker 2: matter the most, that you are willing. 941 00:44:54,640 --> 00:44:55,520 Speaker 4: To give the most time to. 942 00:44:55,800 --> 00:44:58,040 Speaker 2: Because growing up, I was a big Sacramento Kings fan, 943 00:44:58,480 --> 00:45:00,800 Speaker 2: you know, like Chris Weber was my first life you know, 944 00:45:00,880 --> 00:45:03,560 Speaker 2: Mike Bibbie, Paige Soojakovica. 945 00:45:03,760 --> 00:45:05,399 Speaker 3: I love them, sure, but. 946 00:45:08,239 --> 00:45:08,759 Speaker 4: Not a fan. 947 00:45:09,080 --> 00:45:11,560 Speaker 2: But that was like growing up and then as I'm 948 00:45:11,640 --> 00:45:13,600 Speaker 2: not a fan of the Kings now, that's you know 949 00:45:13,640 --> 00:45:15,759 Speaker 2: what I'm not like, I don't want them to be 950 00:45:15,800 --> 00:45:18,000 Speaker 2: as bad as they are, but I'm definitely not a 951 00:45:18,000 --> 00:45:18,680 Speaker 2: fan of. 952 00:45:18,640 --> 00:45:22,120 Speaker 3: The game PONSI switched from one down trodden NBA franchise 953 00:45:22,200 --> 00:45:26,879 Speaker 3: with very little overall success to another down trodden NBA 954 00:45:26,960 --> 00:45:29,520 Speaker 3: franchise with very little overall success. 955 00:45:29,200 --> 00:45:31,640 Speaker 2: And Clippers were always, you know the family team that 956 00:45:31,800 --> 00:45:33,680 Speaker 2: it's always been.

I prefer a. 1079 00:50:39,040 --> 00:50:41,400 Speaker 2: Four because I'm short, so it's easier for me to 1080 00:50:41,480 --> 00:50:44,360 Speaker 2: try and hit it in a corner at the side. 1081 00:50:44,480 --> 00:50:46,080 Speaker 2: A three is a little bit shorter and it's a 1082 00:50:46,080 --> 00:50:49,520 Speaker 2: little bit inside, but it would probably be harder for 1083 00:50:49,640 --> 00:50:52,560 Speaker 2: me against the tall block.

On the other side, 1087 00:50:59,520 --> 00:51:01,759 Speaker 2: a four is higher and more outside. A three is 1088 00:51:01,800 --> 00:51:03,480 Speaker 2: shorter and on the inside. 1089 00:51:03,120 --> 00:51:05,120 Speaker 3: Peter is chimed in volleyball. 1090 00:51:05,200 --> 00:51:05,520 Speaker 5: Queen. 1091 00:51:05,840 --> 00:51:10,239 Speaker 3: There it is.
