1
00:00:01,040 --> 00:00:03,760
Speaker 1: You don't listening to Fox Sports Radio Radio.

2
00:00:04,800 --> 00:00:07,040
Speaker 2: All right, it's her Day. It really is. We're gonna

3
00:00:07,040 --> 00:00:09,080
Speaker 2: tell you all about it in just about a minute.

4
00:00:09,119 --> 00:00:11,920
Speaker 2: Good on, everybody. This is Fox Sports Sunday and Fox

5
00:00:11,960 --> 00:00:14,080
Speaker 2: Sports Radio. He's Bucky Brooks and Andy Ferman and we

6
00:00:14,440 --> 00:00:17,599
Speaker 2: are broadcasting live from the Fox Sports Radio studios. And

7
00:00:17,680 --> 00:00:21,560
Speaker 2: of course, as mentioned, my guy, my partner, the one

8
00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:23,439
Speaker 2: and only Bucky Brooks. Hello, Buck, how are you?

9
00:00:24,040 --> 00:00:24,439
Speaker 3: I'm good?

10
00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:24,920
Speaker 4: What's going on.

11
00:00:25,560 --> 00:00:28,000
Speaker 2: It's a great day. I said, it's her Day. It's

12
00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:31,640
Speaker 2: Mother's Day today. I'm just wondering how many moms actually

13
00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:33,519
Speaker 2: listen to us? What do you think? Do you think

14
00:00:33,560 --> 00:00:35,520
Speaker 2: a lot of moms listen to us on Sundays?

15
00:00:36,479 --> 00:00:38,680
Speaker 3: I think I think there are a few moms that

16
00:00:38,720 --> 00:00:40,800
Speaker 3: are paying attention to us at this hour.

17
00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:43,960
Speaker 2: Let's hope. So No, here's the deal. Why is our

18
00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:47,000
Speaker 2: show head and shoulders above the rest? I'll tell you why.

19
00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:49,080
Speaker 2: I figured it out. I'm not that smart, but I

20
00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:52,840
Speaker 2: figured this out because we not only entertain, we inform.

21
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:55,880
Speaker 2: We entertain and inform at the same time. And I

22
00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:59,520
Speaker 2: wanted to know why Mother's Day started when it's the

23
00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:02,160
Speaker 2: How does Okay? So I looked at that little information,

24
00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:06,200
Speaker 2: little entertainment of information. Right now, Anna Jarvis with the

25
00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:09,360
Speaker 2: first Mother's Day celebrated through the service of worship where

26
00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:13,920
Speaker 2: at Saint Andrew's Methodist Church in Grafton, West Virginia. I've

27
00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:15,600
Speaker 2: never been there. I don't know where it is, but

28
00:01:15,640 --> 00:01:17,920
Speaker 2: in Grafton, West Virginia, they must have a big sign

29
00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:21,080
Speaker 2: there or something whatever it was on May tenth, nineteen

30
00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:24,280
Speaker 2: oh Wait, first Mother's Day there you go write it

31
00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:26,640
Speaker 2: down so if they ask you today at dinner and

32
00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:29,160
Speaker 2: for your mom, say, I remember back in nineteen oh

33
00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:31,760
Speaker 2: eight I heard it with Bucky Brooks and Ad Firman

34
00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:34,520
Speaker 2: a Fox Sports Sunday that was the first Mother's Day.

35
00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:37,600
Speaker 2: Now the question is, Buck, where's the best place to

36
00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:40,039
Speaker 2: take mom today on Mother's Day? Because you can't get

37
00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:42,240
Speaker 2: a reservation anywhere. You really can't.

38
00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:44,240
Speaker 4: Well, I mean you can if you're going to wait

39
00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:45,400
Speaker 4: till the day to try and get in.

40
00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:47,320
Speaker 3: I mean, if you plan to head, you should have

41
00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:51,120
Speaker 3: been able to get your mom wherever. But look, this

42
00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:54,000
Speaker 3: is what I've heard, the biggest day in the restaurant industry.

43
00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:56,080
Speaker 3: When it comes to it, everyone knows that you're going

44
00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:58,560
Speaker 3: to take your mom out to a restaurant, a nice

45
00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:01,080
Speaker 3: place and so you got to on the right spot

46
00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:03,280
Speaker 3: for you, mom, but also a place where you can

47
00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:05,080
Speaker 3: get in if you were last minute when it came

48
00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:06,160
Speaker 3: to making reservations.

49
00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:07,880
Speaker 2: Well that's me, And I tell you what I'm really

50
00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:09,720
Speaker 2: worried about, because I know the drive through line of

51
00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:12,320
Speaker 2: McDonald's gonna be bad. It's gonna be really bad today.

52
00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:13,840
Speaker 2: It's gonna be like about an hour and a half

53
00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:17,080
Speaker 2: wait in that drive through McDonald's. So we'll see. But

54
00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:19,640
Speaker 2: you know, she likes to fish. She likes to McDonald

55
00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:21,600
Speaker 2: McDonald's fish. So we'll take care of her today on

56
00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:23,560
Speaker 2: Mother's Day. That's what I do. I'm a good guy.

57
00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:25,640
Speaker 2: I take care of mom and everybody else. That's what

58
00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:28,560
Speaker 2: we do. Now, let's get it to the task at hand.

59
00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:32,480
Speaker 2: Let's talk a little basketball right now. And everybody's wondering

60
00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:35,840
Speaker 2: about the Minnesota Timberwolves. Yeah they're for real all right, Anthony,

61
00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:38,240
Speaker 2: which came alive. He's got thirty six last night. But

62
00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:42,400
Speaker 2: shame on men, Shame on men for toying, toying with

63
00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:45,320
Speaker 2: the Golden State Warriors without steph one O two ninety

64
00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:48,000
Speaker 2: seven never should have been that close. It never should

65
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:49,200
Speaker 2: have been that clubb Are you kidding?

66
00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:49,320
Speaker 3: Even?

67
00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:52,440
Speaker 2: There's no offense whatsoever. Hey, Jimmy Butler, Jimmy Buckets, what

68
00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:54,640
Speaker 2: do you got? Thirty three? Last night? He came alive.

69
00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:57,080
Speaker 2: He had no help, He had no help. This team

70
00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:00,600
Speaker 2: shows you how valuable Steph Curry is. And he's on

71
00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:02,960
Speaker 2: the bench kind of like giving them support on the bench.

72
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:06,679
Speaker 2: He couldn't play. But without him, there's no offense, doesn't move,

73
00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:08,880
Speaker 2: it look flat, and it was back and forth, in

74
00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:12,040
Speaker 2: and out, whatever it may be. Julius Randall a triple double?

75
00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:13,600
Speaker 2: What if happened to him? He didn't play like that

76
00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:15,560
Speaker 2: when he was on the Knicks. He didn't play like that.

77
00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:17,840
Speaker 2: In New York. He came alive. He scored twenty four.

78
00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:21,640
Speaker 2: McDaniels fifteen, Anthony Edwards thirty six. I'll tell you, I mean, honestly,

79
00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:25,280
Speaker 2: if you look at the stats, team stats, there's somewhat online,

80
00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:28,520
Speaker 2: almost even, but again without Steph Curry, that shows you

81
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:31,880
Speaker 2: how valuable this guy is. That offensive flat at turnovers,

82
00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:33,440
Speaker 2: not good, not good at all.

83
00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:37,640
Speaker 3: I mean, most teams can't move away or win without

84
00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:41,240
Speaker 3: a top fifteen player, maybe a top ten player in

85
00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:42,320
Speaker 3: NBA history.

86
00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:44,160
Speaker 4: You remove him from the lineup.

87
00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:46,960
Speaker 3: A lot of teams WI all struggle and with the Warriors,

88
00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:49,960
Speaker 3: he's not only that caliber player, but he's kind of

89
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:52,840
Speaker 3: the cog in the wheel, the guy that makes it

90
00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:55,840
Speaker 3: all go because his long range shooting opens up everything

91
00:03:56,160 --> 00:04:00,560
Speaker 3: for everyone else. And even though playoff Jimmy Bucket is

92
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:03,960
Speaker 3: a monster, they still aren't the same team when they

93
00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:06,600
Speaker 3: don't have Steph there. Buddy Hill can make shots, and

94
00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:08,080
Speaker 3: some of the other guys can make shots, but the

95
00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:10,400
Speaker 3: thing that you know when the ball is in kept

96
00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:14,680
Speaker 3: Steph Curry's hands. He put in a basket and that

97
00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:18,320
Speaker 3: is something that is comforting to everybody else. Everyone can

98
00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:22,040
Speaker 3: play their respective roles, but without him, everyone has to

99
00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:24,479
Speaker 3: earn a promotion. Everyone has to be promoted to a

100
00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:26,440
Speaker 3: different role, and they're uncomfortable.

101
00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:28,440
Speaker 4: And what we saw, even though it was a.

102
00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:32,159
Speaker 3: Very competitive game, a very spirited game, they can't finish

103
00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:33,839
Speaker 3: because they didn't have Cheff Curry in the building.

104
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:35,880
Speaker 2: You're exactly right now, if you look at the stats

105
00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:37,560
Speaker 2: without looking at the final spot, you look at team

106
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:40,040
Speaker 2: stats trying to compare what's going on. Both teams shot

107
00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:43,680
Speaker 2: like forty three percent from two all right, from three points,

108
00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:46,640
Speaker 2: it was like thirty eight percent of Minnesota forty three

109
00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:49,920
Speaker 2: percent for Golden State. But those stats kind of askewed

110
00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:52,839
Speaker 2: a little bit doesn't mean anything. Rebounding thirty six rebounds

111
00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:55,960
Speaker 2: as a team for Golden State and forty four rebounds

112
00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:59,080
Speaker 2: for Minnesota. But it was the inside players. Julius Randall,

113
00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:01,880
Speaker 2: I mean, come alive in the playoffs. A triple double

114
00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:05,080
Speaker 2: last night, twenty four points, twelve assist, ten boards last night.

115
00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:08,240
Speaker 2: The second player in Minnesota Timberwolves history to record a

116
00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:11,000
Speaker 2: triple double. Who did he join Kevin Garnett? All right?

117
00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:12,680
Speaker 2: I mean this team is playing and I tell you

118
00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:15,280
Speaker 2: what the players had the talent. I give a lot

119
00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:17,720
Speaker 2: of credit to the coaching staff in Minnesota. This team

120
00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:20,600
Speaker 2: is good. It's a good Minnesota Timberwolves team, and they

121
00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:22,680
Speaker 2: I believe they can go deep in the playoffs because

122
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:24,920
Speaker 2: they got the big guy. They got Anthony Edwards who

123
00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:26,920
Speaker 2: came alive in the third and fourth quarter last night.

124
00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:29,600
Speaker 2: I think they play and they played well as a team.

125
00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:31,599
Speaker 3: Yeah, they played well as his team. And I'm gonna

126
00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:33,760
Speaker 3: give Chris Finch a lot of credit. You want to

127
00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:36,480
Speaker 3: know why Julius Randall's playing well, Because when Chris Finch

128
00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:39,760
Speaker 3: was in New Orleans with Julius Randall.

129
00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:41,200
Speaker 4: That was Julius Randall's guy.

130
00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:44,159
Speaker 3: He talked about how he prepared him, how he always

131
00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:46,800
Speaker 3: had them ready to play for each game, and them

132
00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:50,600
Speaker 3: reunited in Minnesota has really allowed Julius Randall to get

133
00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:52,800
Speaker 3: back to doing what he's been able to do even

134
00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:55,120
Speaker 3: at times when he flashed with the LA Lakers. Look,

135
00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:57,520
Speaker 3: he's a bucket. He can go and get buckets in

136
00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:02,200
Speaker 3: certain situations. And what they've assembled is really an interesting

137
00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:05,000
Speaker 3: and fascinating team to watch. They're long and athletic. They

138
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:07,840
Speaker 3: can d up, but they have the ability to go

139
00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:10,000
Speaker 3: off the bounce, and they can kick it out and

140
00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:13,120
Speaker 3: shoot threes. And when they're knocking down those threes, I

141
00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:16,159
Speaker 3: mean they're a very tough team because they put you

142
00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:19,039
Speaker 3: so far out of your comfort zone. And then ant

143
00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:21,719
Speaker 3: man Anthony Edwards can get to the rack whenever he

144
00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:24,240
Speaker 3: wants to, and he has added the three ball to

145
00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:27,080
Speaker 3: his game. Just a really good team, well constructed team.

146
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:30,360
Speaker 3: Even though they finished what they finished in the regular season.

147
00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:32,320
Speaker 4: Man, this team has.

148
00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:34,360
Speaker 3: The makers of not only being a Western Conference finals,

149
00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:36,520
Speaker 3: but they can challenge the team that comes out the

150
00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:38,080
Speaker 3: East if they make it to the finals.

151
00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:40,960
Speaker 2: Agreed. Now you look at the Golden State Warriors lineup

152
00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:42,840
Speaker 2: right now, and you look at Jimmy Butler, kudos to

153
00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:45,479
Speaker 2: him with thirty three points and seven boards, no help.

154
00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:48,400
Speaker 2: And Draymond green where was he last night? Two points

155
00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:51,160
Speaker 2: and two boards? What happened to Draymond Greenland? I mean,

156
00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:53,839
Speaker 2: I don't understand. I mean, how a guy could be

157
00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:57,000
Speaker 2: so consistently inconsistent? All right, he's a Hall of Fame,

158
00:06:57,120 --> 00:06:58,320
Speaker 2: there's no doubt in my mind he's going to be

159
00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:00,360
Speaker 2: in the Hall of Fame. And then he's one fourth

160
00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:02,719
Speaker 2: titles with this team. And he's a big cock for

161
00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:04,600
Speaker 2: this team, any team. We'd love to have him. But

162
00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:07,080
Speaker 2: you gotta get more. You gotta give him a little

163
00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:09,600
Speaker 2: bit more, Draymond come on, two points, come on, you

164
00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:11,800
Speaker 2: gotta help Buckets out there. Thirty three. And I love

165
00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:14,480
Speaker 2: the way Buckets played because not only did he shoot

166
00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:17,480
Speaker 2: from the outside, he challenged He challenged the interior of

167
00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:19,560
Speaker 2: Minnesota list night, big time. And that's what he had

168
00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:21,640
Speaker 2: to do. And I think that's why Rudy Golbert got

169
00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:24,000
Speaker 2: in foul trouble early on in the first half, because

170
00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:26,920
Speaker 2: he challenged him inside underneath and he did a tough player,

171
00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:29,080
Speaker 2: loved Jimmy buckets. But he needs help and he didn't

172
00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:30,120
Speaker 2: get much help last night.

173
00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:33,080
Speaker 3: No, but I think you have to understand what Draymond

174
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:36,400
Speaker 3: Green is. Jamon Green is a glue guy. He's a

175
00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:40,840
Speaker 3: defenderve first offensive player either second, third, fourth in terms

176
00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:43,280
Speaker 3: of what he brings to the table. And the night

177
00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:45,880
Speaker 3: before the game, before game two, look, he was out

178
00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:47,920
Speaker 3: of pocket. I mean he had more points, more threes

179
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,520
Speaker 3: than he ever typically does. You can't count on him

180
00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:53,280
Speaker 3: to be your complimentary weapon on offense.

181
00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:55,880
Speaker 4: Someone else has to step up and make shots.

182
00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:58,760
Speaker 3: And you know, I know we're looking for Draymond because

183
00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:01,360
Speaker 3: he has the most experienced chance ship pedigree, Hall of

184
00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:02,000
Speaker 3: Fame resume.

185
00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:05,200
Speaker 4: But that's not his lane. And so without Steph Curry,

186
00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:05,840
Speaker 4: when we.

187
00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:08,760
Speaker 3: Talked about guys being thrust in the lanes that are

188
00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:11,640
Speaker 3: uncomfortable for them in their games, Dremond Green is a

189
00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:12,360
Speaker 3: prime example.

190
00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:14,680
Speaker 2: All Right, I want to move on to the other

191
00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:16,440
Speaker 2: game because I think that was the game that a

192
00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:18,360
Speaker 2: lot of people had their eyes on the early game,

193
00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:20,840
Speaker 2: the Celtics Knicks game, because if the Knicks would have

194
00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:22,560
Speaker 2: won last night, they would have put the nail on

195
00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:24,240
Speaker 2: the caff into the Boss and Celtics. They would have

196
00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:26,200
Speaker 2: been a three zip. Didn't work out that way. One

197
00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:29,720
Speaker 2: fifteen ninety three. And all I heard last night about

198
00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:32,080
Speaker 2: commentary after the game. I'm not going to point out

199
00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:33,679
Speaker 2: names who I heard it from, but this is what

200
00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:37,640
Speaker 2: I heard spinning the dial around the country, locally, whatever

201
00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:39,680
Speaker 2: it may be. No one talked about the game. No

202
00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:41,839
Speaker 2: one talked about how the Celtics played. It's about the

203
00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:45,160
Speaker 2: Nick fans. I mean, oh, the Knick fans before the game,

204
00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:47,000
Speaker 2: they were hanging from the rafters. They were so exa,

205
00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:51,160
Speaker 2: who gives a rats? What about Nick fans? Okay, any

206
00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:53,920
Speaker 2: fan that has a team that's up to ZIP in

207
00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:57,400
Speaker 2: the playoffs is going to be google. They're gonna go nuts, okay,

208
00:08:57,679 --> 00:09:00,720
Speaker 2: and I have no problem with that. Up picking on

209
00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:02,480
Speaker 2: the Knitck fans, and they said, now the air is

210
00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:05,000
Speaker 2: let out of the blood. Of course, any fan of

211
00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:08,160
Speaker 2: any team that their team is up to ZIP against

212
00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:11,080
Speaker 2: the defending world champs, they're gonna go crazy. And it

213
00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:13,280
Speaker 2: was a home game to hang up from the rafters

214
00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:15,960
Speaker 2: at Madison Square Garden. Of course they're gonna go nuts.

215
00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:18,560
Speaker 2: One fifteen to ninety three. Now, let's go a little deeper.

216
00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:21,000
Speaker 2: Let's dig a little deeper into this series. Right now,

217
00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:24,840
Speaker 2: the Knicks trailed by twenty in both games. Right Boston

218
00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:27,000
Speaker 2: missed seventy five to three point shots as the team

219
00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:30,160
Speaker 2: in the first two games. Seventy five. I mean, honestly,

220
00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:32,520
Speaker 2: if I'm looking at the Boston lineup and if I'm

221
00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:35,120
Speaker 2: looking like the game plan, you know, if it's not working,

222
00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:38,120
Speaker 2: change go inside a little bit. Dy didn't. They're up

223
00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:40,800
Speaker 2: twenty points in both first two games, and they lost

224
00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:44,880
Speaker 2: their games. Boston handled the Knicks quite easily during the

225
00:09:44,920 --> 00:09:47,720
Speaker 2: regular season. They're a better team than the New York Knicks.

226
00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:50,880
Speaker 2: They will probably win this series. So take a step back,

227
00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:54,280
Speaker 2: take a breath, take a pill, a chill pill, and relaxed.

228
00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:57,880
Speaker 2: Boston's a better team. Why they let the Knicks come

229
00:09:57,920 --> 00:10:01,160
Speaker 2: back those first two games in Boston less is beyond me.

230
00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:03,840
Speaker 2: But right now, with that win last night, and they

231
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:07,320
Speaker 2: handed it to them last night, there was no contest whatsoever.

232
00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:10,559
Speaker 2: This series is gonna go down and Boss is gonna win.

233
00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:12,560
Speaker 2: They're a better team, that's just the way it is.

234
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:15,760
Speaker 3: They are a better team, but the way that they

235
00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:17,800
Speaker 3: play creates opportunities for the Knicks.

236
00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:21,440
Speaker 4: To get to steal it. And because they lost the first.

237
00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:23,200
Speaker 3: Two games and the manner in which they lost them

238
00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:25,240
Speaker 3: where they had twenty point leads and let them up,

239
00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:27,880
Speaker 3: they put themselves in a tough situation where they get

240
00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:30,360
Speaker 3: to win four out of five to get it done.

241
00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:32,960
Speaker 3: And look, they were able to get it done. It

242
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:36,720
Speaker 3: was the easy walk over win for them on Saturday.

243
00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:39,240
Speaker 3: But can they continue to get that? Yes, they are

244
00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:42,400
Speaker 3: absolutely the better team, but they've eliminated all of the

245
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:45,640
Speaker 3: margin for error. So a bad shooting night, a night

246
00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:48,880
Speaker 3: where someone is just off, not with the rotations, Look,

247
00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:52,120
Speaker 3: they can find themselves down and have to play in

248
00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:54,600
Speaker 3: an elimination game. And once you get to the elimination

249
00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:57,920
Speaker 3: state of the tournament, man, that's hard for anybody because

250
00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:01,760
Speaker 3: of depression, those things. But it's they're the better team

251
00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:04,559
Speaker 3: given the sizeable leaves that they've been able to build

252
00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:07,640
Speaker 3: in each game. But do they have enough toughness to

253
00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:08,600
Speaker 3: come back and finish this?

254
00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:11,600
Speaker 2: And you know, here's the thing with Boston. You don't

255
00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:13,400
Speaker 2: know who's gonna beat you. And this is almost like

256
00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:16,079
Speaker 2: a history of the Boston Celtics. You know, way back

257
00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:18,480
Speaker 2: when when they were rolling for championships. You don't know

258
00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:20,000
Speaker 2: who's going to come off the bench and beat you.

259
00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:22,600
Speaker 2: And yesterday was Peyton Pritchett. He's scored twenty three points.

260
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:24,520
Speaker 2: That was a team high. He had five to ten

261
00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:27,560
Speaker 2: for three. So okay, no one expected Peyton Pritchett to

262
00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:29,680
Speaker 2: be the guy to put the dagger in the Knicks yesterday,

263
00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:33,000
Speaker 2: but he did. Okay, certainly, you are Jason Tatum at nineteen, Okay,

264
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:35,440
Speaker 2: there's no BD and Jalen Brown scoring. You get those

265
00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:37,360
Speaker 2: guys are going to get their points. And if you're

266
00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:40,520
Speaker 2: playing defense, you got to say, look, I'll give them

267
00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:42,199
Speaker 2: their points. I don't want a guy like Pritchard to

268
00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:44,240
Speaker 2: beat me. That's the key if you're the coach and

269
00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:46,880
Speaker 2: saying you know that Tatum's going to get his twenty

270
00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:50,080
Speaker 2: twenty five, Jalen Brown's gonna get his twenty twenty five. Okay,

271
00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:52,439
Speaker 2: that's a given. But for Peyton Pritchett to come off

272
00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:54,360
Speaker 2: the bench he scored twenty three, that's a no.

273
00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:54,480
Speaker 4: No.

274
00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:55,600
Speaker 2: That should never happen.

275
00:11:56,920 --> 00:11:59,920
Speaker 3: Look, I mean it shouldn't happen. I mean, but you

276
00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:02,840
Speaker 3: talked about it. You talked about how they're built, the

277
00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:05,280
Speaker 3: way they're constructed. I mean, they have the perfect team

278
00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:07,920
Speaker 3: on paper in terms of the depth the talent who

279
00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:10,679
Speaker 3: they have. I mean, you talk about Drew Holliday and

280
00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:15,079
Speaker 3: Derek White and just so many guys that they can

281
00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:17,679
Speaker 3: come Pritchard, Who's six Men of the Year. They can

282
00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:19,800
Speaker 3: hit you in waves and waves and we haven't even

283
00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:23,439
Speaker 3: seen Porstingus play consistently in this series. I mean, they

284
00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:27,079
Speaker 3: just have so many bodies, talented players that can shoot

285
00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:29,400
Speaker 3: the three ball, that can put it up. They just

286
00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:32,599
Speaker 3: stretch your defense. They just make it very, very difficult

287
00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:38,280
Speaker 3: for you. And because of their willingness to basically play

288
00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:41,880
Speaker 3: with the math equation right, knowing that threes and twos

289
00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:44,320
Speaker 3: you can't keep up. You can't hit enough twos to

290
00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:46,520
Speaker 3: stay with someone who is consistently.

291
00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:48,000
Speaker 4: Knocking down threes, and.

292
00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:50,040
Speaker 3: When they're hot, they blow you out the gym. The

293
00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:52,200
Speaker 3: only chance that you have against them is if they're

294
00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:55,480
Speaker 3: not making their three pointers. We saw Orlando did a

295
00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:57,640
Speaker 3: really good job in that series of running them off

296
00:12:57,679 --> 00:13:00,720
Speaker 3: the line, not letting them shoot threes make and they contested,

297
00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:03,480
Speaker 3: or making them put the ball on the floor and

298
00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:05,480
Speaker 3: go to the hole. The only way you can knock

299
00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:07,080
Speaker 3: off the ceales you got to eliminate some of the

300
00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:08,440
Speaker 3: three pointers that they're knocking out.

301
00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:11,040
Speaker 2: You know, you're exactly right. And I'm here. I heard

302
00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:14,040
Speaker 2: a commentary yesterday and I was in the car listening

303
00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:16,160
Speaker 2: to the radio. I almost drove off the road because

304
00:13:16,280 --> 00:13:19,000
Speaker 2: one of the people on the commentary was saying that

305
00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:21,760
Speaker 2: these are great games. These playoff games are great. I mean,

306
00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:23,800
Speaker 2: it's great talent. And I'm saying to myself, what are

307
00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:26,360
Speaker 2: you watching? What are you watching? You know, these guys

308
00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:30,319
Speaker 2: when they took forty five threes, that's not great basketball.

309
00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:32,200
Speaker 2: You know, I don't know what you've seen. I don't

310
00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:34,320
Speaker 2: know what you've seen in the past. This is not great.

311
00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:36,800
Speaker 2: It's Look, they are two miserable shooting games. Hoping the

312
00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:39,120
Speaker 2: series the Celtics did yesterday, they had six of the

313
00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:42,160
Speaker 2: first seven threes to open the game. Change your offense,

314
00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:44,559
Speaker 2: you know, but they live and die by the three.

315
00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:47,760
Speaker 2: And if I'm playing defense against them, I realized they're

316
00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:50,160
Speaker 2: not going to go inside. It's all three point games.

317
00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:53,719
Speaker 2: And honestly, I don't think that's great basketball. I mean,

318
00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:56,400
Speaker 2: if you think it's great basketball, good for you. I mean,

319
00:13:56,440 --> 00:13:58,200
Speaker 2: I'm not going to change your mind the right It's

320
00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:00,600
Speaker 2: like politics, you want to root for this guy, that's fine.

321
00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:03,959
Speaker 2: You for this party, that's fine. But to me, I'm

322
00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:07,400
Speaker 2: a guy that loved the Golden State Warriors when Steph

323
00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:09,920
Speaker 2: is healthy, because they're passing the ball three four times

324
00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:12,440
Speaker 2: before they take a shot, all right, I don't like

325
00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:15,000
Speaker 2: seeing a guy coming down there and taking a twenty eight.

326
00:14:16,080 --> 00:14:18,840
Speaker 2: Got a response for their ANBA wrote. I wrote to

327
00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:21,600
Speaker 2: the commissioner, said you should have a designated three a

328
00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:24,360
Speaker 2: designated player that shoots threes, because I think the three

329
00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:27,600
Speaker 2: point shot is ruining the game. You know, one person

330
00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:30,160
Speaker 2: said yesterday on the airwaves, I was listening, we'll move

331
00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:32,480
Speaker 2: the three point shot back further. They're shooting it for

332
00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:34,880
Speaker 2: almost half court now. Anyway. It's crazy.

333
00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:37,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's crazy. I don't think you can take that away.

334
00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:38,600
Speaker 4: It's a part of it.

335
00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:40,840
Speaker 3: I think what people have to do defensively, you got

336
00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:44,200
Speaker 3: to adapt and adjusts. We've seen teams do it. We've

337
00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:48,440
Speaker 3: seen the team adopt less stringent rules when it came

338
00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:52,120
Speaker 3: to hand to hand combat and hand checking into those things.

339
00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:55,160
Speaker 4: And in the playoffs we've had a much more enjoyable.

340
00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:57,960
Speaker 3: Game because it's been a little more contentious, a little

341
00:14:57,960 --> 00:14:59,760
Speaker 3: more physical in those things.

342
00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:03,040
Speaker 4: But but look, if a team elects.

343
00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:05,520
Speaker 3: To kind of run counter to what everyone else has

344
00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:08,840
Speaker 3: been doing, that's gonna be problematic. And what happened is

345
00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:11,320
Speaker 3: when the Warriors had their success where they had their

346
00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:14,280
Speaker 3: run where they won those championships with Kad and Steph

347
00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:17,400
Speaker 3: and all of that, it led others to try to

348
00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:19,720
Speaker 3: adopt that style. Whatever were gonna shot a bunch of threes,

349
00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:20,360
Speaker 3: they're gonna.

350
00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:21,520
Speaker 4: Wear you out. The math equation.

351
00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:25,080
Speaker 3: The Celtics have just lived in it and taken it

352
00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:27,880
Speaker 3: to the next degree, shooting fifty and sixty threes in

353
00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:31,960
Speaker 3: a game, and when they're hitting at that rate, I mean,

354
00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:34,800
Speaker 3: you just can't keep up. You can't keep up. And

355
00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:37,880
Speaker 3: so that's what it is. So we talk about living

356
00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:40,760
Speaker 3: and dying by the three. They're like, look, it's not

357
00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:44,400
Speaker 3: what our coaches from yesteryear wanted, but there are a

358
00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:46,800
Speaker 3: lot of coaches that feel like, if they got the shooters,

359
00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:48,840
Speaker 3: why not take advantage of the weapon that is a

360
00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:49,400
Speaker 3: three ball.

361
00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:53,280
Speaker 2: I get it. The game has changed, There's no doubt

362
00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:54,520
Speaker 2: in my mind the game is changed. I don't know

363
00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:56,320
Speaker 2: if it's changed for it better, but it's changed. I

364
00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:58,560
Speaker 2: love it. I love the game, but I go back,

365
00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:00,760
Speaker 2: and I keep on remembering back, and maybe you don't

366
00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:03,880
Speaker 2: remember this. Probably do remember the ABA, the American Basketball Association,

367
00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:06,240
Speaker 2: and they had the three. They're the ones that invented

368
00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:08,120
Speaker 2: the three, and the NBA stole it from the ABA

369
00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:10,400
Speaker 2: when the merger was the merger was like in sixty seven,

370
00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:12,400
Speaker 2: sixty eight, whoever it may have been, I don't remember,

371
00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:14,560
Speaker 2: but they had big guys and they didn't live and

372
00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:16,520
Speaker 2: die but a three. They had the big guys. They

373
00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:18,560
Speaker 2: had Doctor j and that league they had Artist Gilmore

374
00:16:18,640 --> 00:16:20,680
Speaker 2: in that league. They had big guys, and they moved

375
00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:22,880
Speaker 2: the ball inside and they used the three every now

376
00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:26,240
Speaker 2: and again when needed. They never threw up forty five

377
00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:28,520
Speaker 2: threes in one game, So I don't know when and

378
00:16:28,680 --> 00:16:30,800
Speaker 2: if that changed. Maybe the shooters are better than now.

379
00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:33,200
Speaker 2: Perhaps they are. They have some great shooters back then

380
00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:35,560
Speaker 2: in the abaight, there's no doubt. But they didn't live

381
00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:38,400
Speaker 2: and die but a three, and now they do. And

382
00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:40,560
Speaker 2: I don't think that's basketball, I really don't. I mean,

383
00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:42,720
Speaker 2: come down the court, just heave it up. And again

384
00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:45,120
Speaker 2: we saw what happened in this series when they missed

385
00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:47,360
Speaker 2: the threes. They lose where they make the threes, they win.

386
00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:49,600
Speaker 2: That's it. That's not basketball on my mind.

387
00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:52,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, but I think the difference is a lot of

388
00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:55,360
Speaker 3: it is and I pointed to the go to say Warriors,

389
00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:57,960
Speaker 3: but a lot of it is understanding your personnel. If

390
00:16:58,000 --> 00:16:59,680
Speaker 3: you have the personnel that can shoot the three and

391
00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:04,040
Speaker 3: shoot the three efficiently and capably, then you have an

392
00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:06,600
Speaker 3: opportunity to really take advantage of it. So we can

393
00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:09,399
Speaker 3: talk about the Celtics losing two of those games, but

394
00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:13,280
Speaker 3: in every game they've built sizeable leads because of the

395
00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:18,080
Speaker 3: flurry of threes knocking down, and it's something that can

396
00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:21,560
Speaker 3: kind of just put you in a severe hole as

397
00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:24,399
Speaker 3: the opponent because of the way they shoot it, the

398
00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:26,000
Speaker 3: proficiency in which they shoot it.

399
00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:29,480
Speaker 4: It's problematic. Now every team isn't built.

400
00:17:29,080 --> 00:17:32,840
Speaker 3: Like the Celtics and means that they shouldn't use that

401
00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:35,719
Speaker 3: strategy because they don't have the personnel that can thrive

402
00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:42,280
Speaker 3: in a three ball extensive or exclusive offense. But for them,

403
00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:44,320
Speaker 3: they absolutely can do it, and they've shown you. They

404
00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:46,280
Speaker 3: won a championship doing it last year and they're on

405
00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:48,959
Speaker 3: the way to maybe winning another one this year if

406
00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:50,800
Speaker 3: they can get past the pesky Knicks.

407
00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:53,560
Speaker 2: I hear what you're saying, and I hear you saying

408
00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:55,040
Speaker 2: that you live with die but a three. But here's

409
00:17:55,040 --> 00:17:57,600
Speaker 2: my question, And Joe mizoul is the coach of the

410
00:17:57,600 --> 00:18:01,120
Speaker 2: Bust and Celtics. When they had that game and they

411
00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:03,520
Speaker 2: saw the lead dwindle away in the second game when

412
00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:05,639
Speaker 2: they were up and they missed forty five threes and

413
00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:08,520
Speaker 2: they took forty five threes, that is why didn't he

414
00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:11,639
Speaker 2: call a time out and change the offense. It's not working,

415
00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:14,040
Speaker 2: the ball's not falling. Why not go inside? Give the

416
00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:16,680
Speaker 2: ball of persingas inside he could shoot, get him in

417
00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:17,080
Speaker 2: the paint.

418
00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:19,280
Speaker 4: That's not his game.

419
00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:21,720
Speaker 3: Like one of the things that I respect by him,

420
00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:25,440
Speaker 3: like you play how you play, and your style doesn't change,

421
00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:28,199
Speaker 3: doesn't waiver. And they are a team that they live

422
00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:29,720
Speaker 3: by the three and die by the three. Well if

423
00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:31,600
Speaker 3: some of those games, they gonna die by it because

424
00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:35,640
Speaker 3: their approach has been very successful for Joe Missoula since

425
00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:38,560
Speaker 3: he's taken over. It's been successful since the franchise. Look

426
00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:41,880
Speaker 3: at the banner that they hung a year ago. Why change?

427
00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:44,520
Speaker 3: We are who we are. This is the way that

428
00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:47,879
Speaker 3: we play and good, bad and different. We're going to

429
00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:50,560
Speaker 3: continue to stick to the brand. I actually appreciate that,

430
00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:53,240
Speaker 3: because what happens is if you start trying to do

431
00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:56,320
Speaker 3: things that one you're not prepared to do, two you

432
00:18:56,359 --> 00:18:59,600
Speaker 3: don't have the personnel to do it, it doesn't work.

433
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:01,679
Speaker 3: You can talk about per sing is going on the

434
00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:04,280
Speaker 3: block because he's seven to three, but he doesn't have

435
00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:05,120
Speaker 3: an inside game.

436
00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:09,000
Speaker 4: He's a seven to three jump shooter, so there's nothing.

437
00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:11,320
Speaker 3: That's how they built. They're all in on this strategy,

438
00:19:11,359 --> 00:19:13,240
Speaker 3: and I'm okay with them burning the bows and saying, oh,

439
00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:15,000
Speaker 3: this is how we play and we're not changing.

440
00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:18,119
Speaker 2: You know what, then the Knicks have to do something

441
00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:22,840
Speaker 2: defensively to stop that three and play tougher defense, because

442
00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:25,720
Speaker 2: they didn't. They didn't play tough defense yesterday. They really didn't.

443
00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:28,560
Speaker 2: And honestly, I think then this came out there realizing

444
00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:31,080
Speaker 2: that they fell behind, and honestly, how do you fell

445
00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:33,280
Speaker 2: behind by twenty in both games and win those games?

446
00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:36,160
Speaker 2: Right now they got to be saying to themselves, maybe

447
00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:38,720
Speaker 2: we were lucky, Maybe we're lucky, because right now I

448
00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:41,720
Speaker 2: got to believe that this this some thought process in

449
00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:44,440
Speaker 2: their minds, like oh, here we go again, and you

450
00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:47,000
Speaker 2: talking about the Knick fans and I hate talking about fans,

451
00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:49,360
Speaker 2: because fans are crazy, they really are. And to talk

452
00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:52,600
Speaker 2: about the fans over the game itself, that's ridiculous too.

453
00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:55,800
Speaker 2: They're fans because your team is too zip over the

454
00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:59,080
Speaker 2: team that's defending world champs. You're happy, you're excited the

455
00:19:59,119 --> 00:20:01,320
Speaker 2: games at home of Matters Square Garden. So now the

456
00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:02,919
Speaker 2: air is a little bit out of the balloon. But

457
00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:06,040
Speaker 2: they got another game in New York again, so they

458
00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:08,000
Speaker 2: still have a shot to go up three to one.

459
00:20:08,320 --> 00:20:09,960
Speaker 2: This is a big game for the Knicks right now.

460
00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:12,000
Speaker 2: They lose this when they go back to Boston, then

461
00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:13,400
Speaker 2: it's going to be all over, lights out.

462
00:20:14,760 --> 00:20:17,440
Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, it's a huge game for him, But look,

463
00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:19,240
Speaker 3: you can't make it more than what it is, like

464
00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:22,400
Speaker 3: seven game series. That's how you prepare for it. You're

465
00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:24,159
Speaker 3: playing for it to go seven games, but you got

466
00:20:24,200 --> 00:20:26,359
Speaker 3: to do the things necessary to get it to a

467
00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:28,720
Speaker 3: seventh game. For the next they got to continue to play.

468
00:20:29,119 --> 00:20:31,520
Speaker 3: I mean, the margin for erat the Boston Celtics are

469
00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:33,760
Speaker 3: a better team that was proven in the regular season.

470
00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:37,400
Speaker 3: For the Knicks to win, the Celtics have to help

471
00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:40,159
Speaker 3: them out, and so the Knicks have to force the

472
00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:42,800
Speaker 3: Celtics to play a certain way to be able to

473
00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:46,119
Speaker 3: make the team the game competitive and give themselves a

474
00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:48,440
Speaker 3: chance to win in the fourth quarter. They weren't able

475
00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:49,440
Speaker 3: to do that on Saturday.

476
00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:51,919
Speaker 2: And I think here's the bottom line in this series,

477
00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:55,000
Speaker 2: and forget about threes. Just talk about the weapons. I

478
00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:57,160
Speaker 2: think the Celtics have too many weapons. They have preached

479
00:20:57,400 --> 00:20:59,479
Speaker 2: yesterday came off the bench. That was a surprise. But

480
00:20:59,520 --> 00:21:02,320
Speaker 2: Tatum and those guys are the one two punch Tatum

481
00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:04,560
Speaker 2: at twenty two, Brown nineteen, and the Knicks only have

482
00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:07,240
Speaker 2: in my mind, Jalen Brunts, who's tremendous I love me

483
00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:10,439
Speaker 2: at twenty seven and the catman Karl Anthony Towns and

484
00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:13,119
Speaker 2: that's it. And Towns was like ridiculous. He shot fly

485
00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:15,680
Speaker 2: for eighteen. So you got Towns and Brunts and basically,

486
00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:17,600
Speaker 2: you shut those guys down, you win the ball game.

487
00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:19,480
Speaker 2: That's it. That's basically what the Knicks have.

488
00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:22,200
Speaker 3: I mean, I mean, that's all. I mean, that's that's

489
00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:24,960
Speaker 3: all they have. And so they have to work with that.

490
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:26,960
Speaker 3: They got to make sure that they try and find

491
00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:30,159
Speaker 3: a way to maximize their personnel and their talent. And

492
00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:34,920
Speaker 3: if you're looking at the series and we're saying that

493
00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:40,480
Speaker 3: of the twelve quarters that they played, let's say the

494
00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:43,320
Speaker 3: Celtics have won ten or eleven of them. That's the truth.

495
00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:46,000
Speaker 3: That's who they are. The Celtics are the better team.

496
00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:48,080
Speaker 3: The Knicks have to find a way to make the

497
00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:51,399
Speaker 3: game be played on their terms, and right now they

498
00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:54,000
Speaker 3: haven't been able to control the game consistently to get

499
00:21:55,320 --> 00:21:58,199
Speaker 3: the Celtics to play the way that they want the

500
00:21:58,240 --> 00:22:00,440
Speaker 3: Celtics to play as opposed to the way the Celtics

501
00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:00,880
Speaker 3: want to play.

502
00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:03,760

Speaker 2: iHeart app and it always pop up at the top

535
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:35,679
Speaker 2: of your screen. Now, the big story, I think it

536
00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:37,960
Speaker 2: came out yesterday, is that Derek Carr was at thirty

537
00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:39,560
Speaker 2: four years of age, he started one hundred and sixty

538
00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:43,160
Speaker 2: nine games for two teams. He's left the New Orleans Saints.

539
00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:46,040
Speaker 2: He's called back and he's gone right now because he's

540
00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:48,639
Speaker 2: dealing with that shoulder injury throughout the UF season and

541
00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:51,200
Speaker 2: rather than getting surgery and missing the entire twenty twenty

542
00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:53,720
Speaker 2: five season, he says, I'm gonna call it quits. Look,

543
00:23:53,920 --> 00:23:55,640
Speaker 2: he could have got money, he could have stayed there,

544
00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:58,359
Speaker 2: got the surgery. But obviously I got to believe that

545
00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:00,959
Speaker 2: he was just tired, tired of playing for the New

546
00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:03,399
Speaker 2: Orleans Saints. He had it up to here, said you

547
00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:06,639
Speaker 2: know what, enough's enough. I'm leaving Boom. That's it. But

548
00:24:06,840 --> 00:24:09,280
Speaker 2: the door is open now, Bucket Brooks. For quarterbacks, who's

549
00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:11,120
Speaker 2: going to be the quarterback on the New Orleans Saints.

550
00:24:12,520 --> 00:24:14,080
Speaker 3: It's gonna be one of the three guys that they

551
00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:18,600
Speaker 3: currently have on the roster. Uh, Tyler Shutt, Spencer Ratler

552
00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:21,199
Speaker 3: or Jay Cayner. I mean, that's it. That's why they

553
00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:24,760
Speaker 3: drafted Spencer, I mean Tyler shut in the second round.

554
00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:28,240
Speaker 3: That was the big controversy. They took him. They believed

555
00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:30,200
Speaker 3: in him. They believe that he is a guy who

556
00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:33,800
Speaker 3: has pro ready potential in tools and so that's why

557
00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:36,080
Speaker 3: he went off the board. So my expectation is that

558
00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:38,720
Speaker 3: Tyler Shutt is in line to be the starting quarterback

559
00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:40,000
Speaker 3: for the New Orleans Saints this season.

560
00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:42,359
Speaker 2: Okay, so you're saying that a rookie out of the

561
00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:45,720
Speaker 2: University of louis I think theave Oregon and louis he's

562
00:24:45,720 --> 00:24:46,159
Speaker 2: going to be that.

563
00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:48,160
Speaker 4: Corgan Louisville and Texas Tech.

564
00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:49,280
Speaker 3: Seven year college.

565
00:24:49,040 --> 00:24:51,720
Speaker 2: Player must be nice. Really, you go to three different colleges.

566
00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:54,080
Speaker 2: They don't how many credits he had his transfer for

567
00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:57,200
Speaker 2: one suit to another. But that's another story. However, I'm

568
00:24:57,320 --> 00:24:59,919
Speaker 2: saying that's not the case. I think Aaron Rodgers right

569
00:24:59,920 --> 00:25:02,680
Speaker 2: now now is another option. Kirk Cousins now is an option.

570
00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:04,399
Speaker 2: We'll see what out. Maybe they'll trade. I don't know

571
00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:06,359
Speaker 2: if they're going to trade, but I think Aaron Rodgers

572
00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:08,879
Speaker 2: right now the door is open because he's still waiting

573
00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:11,600
Speaker 2: for Pittsburgh to make a decision and they haven't said anything.

574
00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:14,040
Speaker 2: So I think Aaron Rodgers right now has an option,

575
00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:16,000
Speaker 2: and who knows. I think he may end up in

576
00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:16,600
Speaker 2: New Orleans.

577
00:25:18,119 --> 00:25:20,920
Speaker 3: I haven't heard that, but I mean maybe. I mean,

578
00:25:21,040 --> 00:25:23,160
Speaker 3: like everything is on the table. I think they would

579
00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:26,760
Speaker 3: probably like to proceed as they're presently constructed. That's why

580
00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:28,960
Speaker 3: they look, That's why they used the draft pick on

581
00:25:29,440 --> 00:25:31,320
Speaker 3: Tyler Shut and those other guys to want to create

582
00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:35,120
Speaker 3: a competition and go and if all the conversation has

583
00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:37,240
Speaker 3: been Tyler Ship, we believe you're the guy.

584
00:25:37,280 --> 00:25:38,399
Speaker 4: We believe that you're ready.

585
00:25:38,440 --> 00:25:42,119
Speaker 3: Because they knew the entire time what Derek Carr was

586
00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:44,800
Speaker 3: dealing with as it related to his shoulder, and they

587
00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:48,040
Speaker 3: drafted Tyler Shop with the thought in mind that maybe

588
00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:50,760
Speaker 3: he's going to be the starting quarterback this year, either

589
00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:53,560
Speaker 3: due to injury with Derek Carr, or he is a

590
00:25:53,640 --> 00:25:57,080
Speaker 3: much better player for what Kevin Moore wants to do.

591
00:25:57,440 --> 00:25:59,240
Speaker 3: We don't know, but now that Derek Carr is ex

592
00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:02,879
Speaker 3: to the stage left, this is a great opportunity for

593
00:26:02,920 --> 00:26:04,880
Speaker 3: all these young guys to have a chance to play.

594
00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:05,440
Speaker 1: Well.

595
00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:07,199
Speaker 2: If you think the New Orleans Saints are hurting for

596
00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:09,840
Speaker 2: a quarterback, let's go back to the Pittsburgh Steelers what

597
00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:12,800
Speaker 2: their roster looks like right now. Mason Rudolph and I

598
00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:14,920
Speaker 2: don't get it because when he played for Oklahoma State,

599
00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:17,240
Speaker 2: I love this guy. So he was on the Steelers.

600
00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:19,680
Speaker 2: Then he was a third string of two years ago.

601
00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:21,600
Speaker 2: And now they brought him back out of free agency

602
00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:23,720
Speaker 2: because he was on the Titans, and obviously they didn't

603
00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:25,600
Speaker 2: think much of him because he was so bad. They

604
00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:28,160
Speaker 2: drafted a quarterback for number one. So cam Ward's their guy.

605
00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:31,680
Speaker 2: So Mason Rudolph's back in Pittsburgh. Skyla Thompson's a guy

606
00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:35,040
Speaker 2: who's been around, backing up a fourth season in the NFL.

607
00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:37,720
Speaker 2: And Will Howard sixth round pick out of Ohio State.

608
00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:40,679
Speaker 2: So they're in just as bad shape quarterback wise as

609
00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:43,159
Speaker 2: the New Orleans Saints, aren't they? So? I mean, and

610
00:26:43,200 --> 00:26:45,320
Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers right now must be looking at chops.

611
00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:48,360
Speaker 3: I mean, he might be licking at shops. But then

612
00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:50,520
Speaker 3: here's what you gotta member, Aaron Rose will be forty two.

613
00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:54,199
Speaker 3: How many teams want to hitch your wagon to a

614
00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:57,000
Speaker 3: forty two year old player who was a descending player,

615
00:26:57,119 --> 00:27:00,520
Speaker 3: meaning he is not us and then getting better, he's

616
00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:03,879
Speaker 3: getting worse. And whatever we saw in New York the

617
00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:06,760
Speaker 3: last two years, one was he was injured too. Last

618
00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:10,720
Speaker 3: year he didn't perform very well. He's more likely to

619
00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:13,919
Speaker 3: be like that player than the four time MVP that

620
00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:16,720
Speaker 3: he is. Who wants to sign up for that? How

621
00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:19,719
Speaker 3: is that going to help your franchise advance? There has

622
00:27:19,760 --> 00:27:22,280
Speaker 3: to be a sense of desperation if you want to

623
00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:23,879
Speaker 3: jump into Aaron Rodgers sweep six.

624
00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:26,080
Speaker 2: All right. You know, I didn't even know why I'm

625
00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:28,760
Speaker 2: continually talking about Aaron Rodgers because every time I talk

626
00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:30,320
Speaker 2: about it, and I'm like, I got an indigestion. I

627
00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:32,720
Speaker 2: do I just do something about the guy, the anti

628
00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:34,720
Speaker 2: vaxxing of it. They're living in the cave. I mean

629
00:27:34,760 --> 00:27:36,959
Speaker 2: it just something about him just really turns me off.

630
00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:38,600
Speaker 2: I know he's a Hall of Famer, but you know,

631
00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:41,320
Speaker 2: stay on the football field, Aaron. That's all I care about. However,

632
00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:44,200
Speaker 2: I talked about the Dallas Cowboys. They struck a deal

633
00:27:44,440 --> 00:27:46,840
Speaker 2: with the Steelers on Wednesday and they send the third

634
00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:49,800
Speaker 2: round pick to Pittsburgh for wide receiver George Pickens. First

635
00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:53,080
Speaker 2: of all, losing pickensmy the fact that here we go again,

636
00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:55,560
Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers decision maybe to play for the Steelers because

637
00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:58,119
Speaker 2: he won't have a top notch receiver out there, but

638
00:27:58,119 --> 00:28:00,560
Speaker 2: for the Cowboys and I said, it's long overdue. All

639
00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:03,000
Speaker 2: of a sudden, Now CD Lamb has a running mate,

640
00:28:03,040 --> 00:28:04,800
Speaker 2: which I think he needed. Now that's great, And you

641
00:28:04,880 --> 00:28:07,639
Speaker 2: got to believe that the quarterback in situation now in

642
00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:10,960
Speaker 2: Dok Prescott in Dallas, he's got to be a real

643
00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:14,359
Speaker 2: hobby right now, he's got a legit, a legit guy,

644
00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:17,320
Speaker 2: a number two guy to go along with cde Lamb.

645
00:28:17,359 --> 00:28:18,200
Speaker 2: They got to be happy.

646
00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:21,879
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, let's talk about it from the Dallas

647
00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:24,040
Speaker 3: Cowboys point of you first, and then we go back

648
00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:26,200
Speaker 3: to the Pittsburgh For the Cowboys, they were looking for

649
00:28:26,280 --> 00:28:31,080
Speaker 3: another receiver to put around Dak Prescott to alleviate the

650
00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:33,480
Speaker 3: pressure on Ceedee Lamb being the number one having to

651
00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:36,320
Speaker 3: be the guy that the ball always goes to in

652
00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:39,360
Speaker 3: the clutch. They really wanted to balance it out so

653
00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:41,880
Speaker 3: they can allow Dak Prescott to be at his best.

654
00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:44,280
Speaker 3: And when you look at what Dak Prescott was able

655
00:28:44,280 --> 00:28:46,520
Speaker 3: to do at his best, they had multiple receivers.

656
00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:48,200
Speaker 4: On the field that could win their one on one battles.

657
00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:51,240
Speaker 3: George Pickens is the vertical stretch guy. Ceedee Lamb is

658
00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:53,640
Speaker 3: a catch and run guy. Jake Ferguson does his work

659
00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:56,040
Speaker 3: over the middle. Well, now you look up with that

660
00:28:56,360 --> 00:29:00,360
Speaker 3: repaired offensive line, they can transition into being a team

661
00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:03,120
Speaker 3: that throws it a little more with Dak Prescott kind

662
00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:07,360
Speaker 3: of being the driving force of the offense. We'll see

663
00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:09,719
Speaker 3: how this plays out. But that was the reasoning behind

664
00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:10,640
Speaker 3: the Cowboys.

665
00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:10,720
Speaker 4: Making a move.

666
00:29:10,760 --> 00:29:13,600
Speaker 3: And for the Steelers, I've learned to trust the Steelers

667
00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:16,200
Speaker 3: that whenever they move off a wide receiver, they're moving

668
00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:19,000
Speaker 3: off of them a year too early as opposed to

669
00:29:19,040 --> 00:29:22,160
Speaker 3: a year too late. Their track record says that because

670
00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:24,880
Speaker 3: all the receivers that were big time players that they

671
00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:28,360
Speaker 3: traded or let out the building, they've all faltered from

672
00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:34,080
Speaker 3: Antonio Brown, martebs Bryant. You just think about Mike Wallace,

673
00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:36,640
Speaker 3: on and on and on, Like there's been a list

674
00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:39,560
Speaker 3: Deontay Johnson, they've been a list of when they move

675
00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:42,640
Speaker 3: on from you, they they're moving on at the right time.

676
00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:45,760
Speaker 3: And so we'll see how George Pickens handles this, because

677
00:29:45,800 --> 00:29:50,240
Speaker 3: he's had some immaturity issues that have prevented him from

678
00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:53,560
Speaker 3: fully maxing out on the player that he could be.

679
00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:55,840
Speaker 2: I'm so glad you brought that up. First of all,

680
00:29:55,840 --> 00:29:58,880
Speaker 2: I think, isn't George Pickens the one that came to

681
00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:01,040
Speaker 2: a game at one time late he said he got

682
00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:02,800
Speaker 2: stuck in traffic and he was like chewing on like

683
00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:05,200
Speaker 2: twizzlers and stuff like that, and then he was taking

684
00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:08,320
Speaker 2: like videos in the locker room after a ballgame and

685
00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:10,960
Speaker 2: put it on social media. I mean, he has some

686
00:30:11,080 --> 00:30:13,720
Speaker 2: problems there. So I think that you talk about guys

687
00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:16,120
Speaker 2: that they've moved on from, Let's look at these guys

688
00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:18,440
Speaker 2: they moved on from. You mentioned a couple of Antonio Brown,

689
00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:20,920
Speaker 2: Mike Wallace. The only one that I think that had

690
00:30:20,920 --> 00:30:23,280
Speaker 2: a little bit of success after he left the Steelers

691
00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:26,000
Speaker 2: and they dumped them was Plexico Burris because he won

692
00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:28,040
Speaker 2: the Super Bowl with the Giants. Other than that, I

693
00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:31,800
Speaker 2: mean even Juju Smith, Schuster, Santonio Holmes. They have the

694
00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:35,920
Speaker 2: tendency of moving on guys who have become not not

695
00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:41,120
Speaker 2: great players, but problems, you know, problems, personality problems, and

696
00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:42,880
Speaker 2: they just cut them and let them go. And I'm

697
00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:45,000
Speaker 2: telling you right now, it's not gonna be too long

698
00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:48,400
Speaker 2: before George Pickens has a problem in Dallas, not so

699
00:30:48,520 --> 00:30:51,160
Speaker 2: much playing the game. Talent wise, He's not gonna like

700
00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:53,160
Speaker 2: the fact that he's gonna be a number two guy

701
00:30:53,240 --> 00:30:54,320
Speaker 2: behind cdee lamb.

702
00:30:55,680 --> 00:30:58,400
Speaker 3: Maybe. I mean it's all relative. He's saying all the

703
00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:01,600
Speaker 3: right stuff now, but.

704
00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:02,880
Speaker 4: We won't see those issues pop up.

705
00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:04,760
Speaker 3: Until he has games where he doesn't touch the ball.

706
00:31:04,800 --> 00:31:07,320
Speaker 3: He's not a significant factor in the game plan and

707
00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:07,960
Speaker 3: those things.

708
00:31:08,040 --> 00:31:09,920
Speaker 4: Right now, everything is hunky dorit.

709
00:31:09,960 --> 00:31:12,720
Speaker 3: The talent is the talent, and the talent is intoxicating

710
00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:13,960
Speaker 3: because he has.

711
00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:18,160
Speaker 4: The talent to be the top ten receiver. It's Justin Maddick,

712
00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:18,480
Speaker 4: and he.

713
00:31:18,440 --> 00:31:21,360
Speaker 3: Stayed locked in and focus enough to realize his potential.

714
00:31:21,760 --> 00:31:23,360
Speaker 3: We'll get a chance to see that because he only

715
00:31:23,360 --> 00:31:26,040
Speaker 3: has one year left on his deal in Dallas, and

716
00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:29,080
Speaker 3: how he performs will ultimately determine how they pay him

717
00:31:29,080 --> 00:31:29,840
Speaker 3: and how well they paid.

718
00:31:30,480 --> 00:31:32,760
Speaker 2: I do want to defend George Pickten's right now. You

719
00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:35,200
Speaker 2: mentioned he's got talent. He's got a world of talent.

720
00:31:35,240 --> 00:31:38,280
Speaker 2: He really does. However, don't blame him for this lack

721
00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:41,440
Speaker 2: of production because he had to play with guys like

722
00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:45,640
Speaker 2: can He Pickett, Mitch Trubitsky, Nason Rudolph By, Russell Wilson,

723
00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:48,880
Speaker 2: and Justin Fields. Okay, I understand that he was heard

724
00:31:48,880 --> 00:31:50,880
Speaker 2: at times a little bit, but he was playing with

725
00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:54,480
Speaker 2: kind of like b rated quarterbacks at times. That's the

726
00:31:54,560 --> 00:31:55,480
Speaker 2: problem I believe.

727
00:31:56,680 --> 00:32:00,600
Speaker 3: I mean, look, he certainly didn't have the best collection

728
00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:04,240
Speaker 3: of quarterbacks tossing on the ball, but we've seen others succeed.

729
00:32:04,280 --> 00:32:08,440
Speaker 3: DeAndre Hopkins has become a legend without having an elite quarterback,

730
00:32:08,520 --> 00:32:10,600
Speaker 3: So some of that is on the player more so

731
00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:14,120
Speaker 3: than the thrower. And I understand the days that he

732
00:32:14,120 --> 00:32:16,360
Speaker 3: would get frustrated by not touching the ball because he's

733
00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:17,760
Speaker 3: one of the best players that they had and they

734
00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:20,360
Speaker 3: need to make sure that he always has a presence.

735
00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:22,360
Speaker 3: He always is a guy that's in the game plan.

736
00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:26,800
Speaker 3: The stealers didn't consistently do that, which is why he

737
00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:29,680
Speaker 3: would kind of act out. And it's also why, after

738
00:32:30,320 --> 00:32:32,920
Speaker 3: much thought and consideration, they decided to move on. Let

739
00:32:32,960 --> 00:32:35,040
Speaker 3: them go to a place that might be better for him,

740
00:32:35,440 --> 00:32:36,640
Speaker 3: and they may be better off. Ten.

741
00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:39,320
Speaker 4: They have DK Metcalf in the building right and they.

742
00:32:39,160 --> 00:32:41,440
Speaker 2: Trained it for DK Metcalf in the offseason, so getting

743
00:32:41,480 --> 00:32:44,720
Speaker 2: wit rid of pickings is not really the biggest surprise

744
00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:47,560
Speaker 2: for Steeler fans right now, So we'll see what happens

745
00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:51,160
Speaker 2: over there. But honestly, without a quarterback, they're in bad shape.

746
00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:53,320
Speaker 2: And I don't know why it's taken so long. Is

747
00:32:53,360 --> 00:32:56,840
Speaker 2: that a situation that the Steelers have decided or Aaron

748
00:32:56,920 --> 00:32:58,840
Speaker 2: Rodgers is still up in the air saying I don't

749
00:32:58,840 --> 00:33:01,280
Speaker 2: know what I want to do. I just cannot see

750
00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:05,680
Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers getting along and meshing with Mike Tomlin. I

751
00:33:05,760 --> 00:33:09,400
Speaker 2: just can't see that. Thomas a disciplinarian and Aaron Rodgers

752
00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:12,520
Speaker 2: beats to his own drum.

753
00:33:12,600 --> 00:33:14,560
Speaker 3: Look, Mike Tomlin has shown that he can get along

754
00:33:14,600 --> 00:33:17,520
Speaker 3: with several types.

755
00:33:17,640 --> 00:33:21,400
Speaker 4: Of players, and I am not surprised at him.

756
00:33:21,240 --> 00:33:23,479
Speaker 3: Being able to do it. It's just a matter of

757
00:33:25,560 --> 00:33:28,600
Speaker 3: him being very clear and direct when it comes to

758
00:33:29,520 --> 00:33:32,040
Speaker 3: what he expects, what he wants, and how they should perform.

759
00:33:32,040 --> 00:33:33,440
Speaker 4: And if he gets that.

760
00:33:34,280 --> 00:33:37,920
Speaker 3: Connection with the player, then look that they tend to

761
00:33:37,920 --> 00:33:39,680
Speaker 3: play very very well for him. But a lot of

762
00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:44,040
Speaker 3: it is because he's such an excellent communicator that it

763
00:33:44,120 --> 00:33:45,120
Speaker 3: works out well for him.

764
00:33:45,560 --> 00:33:48,640
Speaker 2: Okay, and we have a sound bite from the general

765
00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:52,360
Speaker 2: manager of the Pittsburgh Steelers, Omar Khan, talking about that

766
00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:55,040
Speaker 2: move that he made the other day with George Pickners.

767
00:33:55,080 --> 00:33:57,240
Speaker 2: Let's take a lookst into the big old Omar Khan

768
00:33:57,360 --> 00:33:58,320
Speaker 2: from the Steelers.

769
00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:01,840
Speaker 6: No, we just kind of talked him, you know, lots

770
00:34:01,880 --> 00:34:05,400
Speaker 6: of serious conversation on his conversations, and he just felt

771
00:34:05,400 --> 00:34:09,120
Speaker 6: that a fresh start for both sides was the right thing.

772
00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:11,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, he really, and I'm gonna translate what he really

773
00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:14,319
Speaker 2: meant to say. We couldn't wait to get rid of him.

774
00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:16,480
Speaker 2: He was a bit of a problem. He was a nuisance.

775
00:34:16,680 --> 00:34:18,960
Speaker 2: Good luck to him, and God bless you be on

776
00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:20,759
Speaker 2: your way and don't hit let the door hit you

777
00:34:20,760 --> 00:34:21,359
Speaker 2: on the way out.

778
00:34:22,200 --> 00:34:23,680
Speaker 3: I mean, I don't know if he said it like that.

779
00:34:23,760 --> 00:34:27,440
Speaker 3: I think he just as he said. They reached a

780
00:34:27,480 --> 00:34:31,960
Speaker 3: conclusion that it was best for both parties if they separated,

781
00:34:32,440 --> 00:34:35,960
Speaker 3: And good luck to George. Georgia have an opportunity to

782
00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:39,279
Speaker 3: go and do his thing and get his money. And

783
00:34:39,360 --> 00:34:42,280
Speaker 3: you know, we feel good about having DK Metcalf. Remember

784
00:34:42,320 --> 00:34:44,960
Speaker 3: when they got DK Metcalf and a trade and then

785
00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:48,000
Speaker 3: they paid him immediately. You're not gonna have two thirty

786
00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:50,799
Speaker 3: million dollars white receivers on the perimeter. That's just not

787
00:34:51,360 --> 00:34:54,759
Speaker 3: it's just not gonna happen. So it's one of those

788
00:34:54,800 --> 00:34:58,719
Speaker 3: things that we knew and we anticipated and they took

789
00:34:58,719 --> 00:34:59,239
Speaker 3: care of it.

790
00:34:59,280 --> 00:34:59,880
Speaker 4: So it works.

791
00:35:00,200 --> 00:35:02,520
Speaker 2: Well, we'll see what happens, all right. Now, one last thing,

792
00:35:02,719 --> 00:35:04,759
Speaker 2: It looked at the Cowboys before they made this trade

793
00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:06,759
Speaker 2: of pickings. I looked at them, wife, I never heard

794
00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:11,040
Speaker 2: of these guys, Jalen Tolbert, Jonathan Mingo, Cavante Turpin, Paris Campbell.

795
00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:12,880
Speaker 2: I mean, is any one of those guys? I mean,

796
00:35:13,080 --> 00:35:15,160
Speaker 2: are they anything to be riding home about?

797
00:35:16,640 --> 00:35:19,040
Speaker 3: I mean, look, I'm not going to disrespect them as players.

798
00:35:19,600 --> 00:35:23,719
Speaker 3: They certainly needed a higher end player around Dak Prescott.

799
00:35:24,200 --> 00:35:26,760
Speaker 3: They gambled on those guys. They had hoped that Ceedee

800
00:35:26,800 --> 00:35:29,040
Speaker 3: Lamb could do it, but he can't do it alone.

801
00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:32,520
Speaker 3: And this is a chance for those guys to just

802
00:35:32,560 --> 00:35:35,800
Speaker 3: like we talked about with Draymond Green and Steph Curry

803
00:35:36,080 --> 00:35:39,120
Speaker 3: and those guys. When Steph Curry's out, it forces guys

804
00:35:39,120 --> 00:35:41,440
Speaker 3: to play roles that are not necessarily built for this

805
00:35:41,600 --> 00:35:42,200
Speaker 3: skill set.

806
00:35:43,440 --> 00:35:44,960
Speaker 4: Now, those guys can go back and.

807
00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:48,080
Speaker 3: Be wide receiver threes and fours as opposed to being

808
00:35:48,160 --> 00:35:51,839
Speaker 3: the number one or number two options in the passing game,

809
00:35:52,520 --> 00:35:55,319
Speaker 3: which was a role that none of those aforementioned guys

810
00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:56,480
Speaker 3: was necessarily built for.

811
00:35:57,120 --> 00:36:01,960
Speaker 2: All Right, the spotlight is on Bucky Brooks. Why ask

812
00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:03,240
Speaker 2: Bucky is next?

813

Speaker 2: Ask Bucky right around the band. Okay, he's Bucky Brooks.

818
00:36:17,719 --> 00:36:20,080
Speaker 2: I'm Andy Fermore about maybe ten minutes before the top

819
00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:22,480
Speaker 2: of the hour on Fox Sports Sunday, We're live from

820
00:36:22,480 --> 00:36:25,520
Speaker 2: the Fox Sports Radio studios. At it's time, let's get

821
00:36:25,560 --> 00:36:27,560
Speaker 2: it done. Ask Bucky right now and here we go.

822
00:36:27,960 --> 00:36:30,359
Speaker 2: Big story of the week right now is Pope Leo

823
00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:31,400
Speaker 2: the fourteenth?

824
00:36:31,560 --> 00:36:31,960
Speaker 3: All right?

825
00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:35,520
Speaker 2: His brother says he's a White Sox fan, not a

826
00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:38,719
Speaker 2: Cubs fan. He's from Chicago. How might this affect his

827
00:36:38,840 --> 00:36:41,080
Speaker 2: popularity because he roots for the White Sox.

828
00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:45,360
Speaker 3: I mean, look, there are people that believe in in

829
00:36:45,680 --> 00:36:47,680
Speaker 3: the White Sox in those things. I've think White Soux

830
00:36:47,719 --> 00:36:51,200
Speaker 3: are Southside, right and so like to look at won't

831
00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:54,319
Speaker 3: affect this popularity some It just is unusual because most

832
00:36:54,320 --> 00:36:57,279
Speaker 3: of the people that rock with Chicago, they rock with

833
00:36:57,280 --> 00:36:58,879
Speaker 3: the Cubs. I would think, I.

834
00:36:58,840 --> 00:37:01,160
Speaker 2: Know, it's really funny the headline in the Chicago sometimes

835
00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:02,759
Speaker 2: the other day when he was appointed, when the white

836
00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:06,280
Speaker 2: Smoke came out, the Bears, you know, the Bears the Pope.

837
00:37:06,640 --> 00:37:09,759
Speaker 2: That was the headline, Da polp the Pope. All right, now,

838
00:37:10,239 --> 00:37:13,319
Speaker 2: Lucky Brooks. The best Mother's Day gift that you could

839
00:37:13,320 --> 00:37:15,279
Speaker 2: give to your mama? What would it be.

840
00:37:16,280 --> 00:37:17,520
Speaker 4: The best Mother's Day gift?

841
00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:21,520
Speaker 3: At this stage, I would say probably it's gonna sound impersonal,

842
00:37:21,760 --> 00:37:23,440
Speaker 3: but I would say, like probably a gift card to

843
00:37:23,520 --> 00:37:25,879
Speaker 3: let her get whatever she wanted to get. My brother

844
00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:29,960
Speaker 3: and I typically compete in various ways when it comes

845
00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:32,319
Speaker 3: to like baking and cooking and those things. I think

846
00:37:32,360 --> 00:37:34,719
Speaker 3: my brother's gonna take care of the baking part. I'm

847
00:37:34,719 --> 00:37:35,960
Speaker 3: gonna take care of the cash.

848
00:37:36,480 --> 00:37:39,320
Speaker 2: Oh well, all right, there we go. Here's a question.

849
00:37:39,360 --> 00:37:43,160
Speaker 2: You're in the University of North Carolina Tarhel grad. Does

850
00:37:43,280 --> 00:37:47,960
Speaker 2: Bill Belichick's girlfriend, Jordan Hudson does she help or hurt

851
00:37:48,400 --> 00:37:50,560
Speaker 2: the North Carolina football program.

852
00:37:51,160 --> 00:37:54,359
Speaker 3: I think ultimately she helps the program because there's been

853
00:37:54,480 --> 00:37:57,920
Speaker 3: more attention on the program, even though people are talking

854
00:37:57,960 --> 00:38:01,799
Speaker 3: about his bad attention in those things. Carolina football has

855
00:38:01,880 --> 00:38:04,840
Speaker 3: never been in the headlines more than since Bill Belichick

856
00:38:04,880 --> 00:38:08,640
Speaker 3: has taken over. Ultimately, she has to be placed in

857
00:38:08,719 --> 00:38:13,200
Speaker 3: a role that really suits her skills. But yeah, the controversy,

858
00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:15,279
Speaker 3: the romance between he and her and all that.

859
00:38:15,360 --> 00:38:15,480
Speaker 7: Like.

860
00:38:15,920 --> 00:38:17,960
Speaker 4: It's led to more attention on the program, which is

861
00:38:18,040 --> 00:38:18,799
Speaker 4: ultimately a good thing.

862
00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:22,040
Speaker 2: You're gonna like this now. Okay, but several weeks ago,

863
00:38:22,920 --> 00:38:26,600
Speaker 2: the Cincinnati Inquirer newspaper had a list of the All Stars,

864
00:38:26,600 --> 00:38:29,399
Speaker 2: the all Star football program in the greatest Cincinnati area.

865
00:38:29,400 --> 00:38:31,680
Speaker 2: And they got some great football teams here, Molo High School,

866
00:38:32,040 --> 00:38:34,319
Speaker 2: Saint X, whatever it may be. I sent it out

867
00:38:34,360 --> 00:38:36,640
Speaker 2: to Belichick. Okay, he appreciated that. He wrote me a

868
00:38:36,640 --> 00:38:39,400
Speaker 2: car He thanked me. And two days ago in the

869
00:38:39,440 --> 00:38:41,799
Speaker 2: Cincinnati inquire I see that they signed the kid from

870
00:38:41,800 --> 00:38:44,760
Speaker 2: Mola High School, which is great. So maybe I helped

871
00:38:44,760 --> 00:38:46,680
Speaker 2: a little bit. I don't know. I don't think so well,

872
00:38:46,800 --> 00:38:48,480
Speaker 2: you never know. But he thanked me, he sent me

873
00:38:48,520 --> 00:38:50,680
Speaker 2: a card. So I'm happy. So you should be happy

874
00:38:50,719 --> 00:38:53,560
Speaker 2: because in North Carolina's whatever, top notch kid from Mola

875
00:38:53,640 --> 00:38:55,799
Speaker 2: High School playing for the tar Heels. Now, so we

876
00:38:55,840 --> 00:38:56,120
Speaker 2: move on.

877
00:38:56,640 --> 00:38:59,600
Speaker 3: Oh, look, I appreciate that I'm doing.

878
00:38:59,440 --> 00:39:01,880
Speaker 2: The best, and I am. I love Billy and I

879
00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:04,000
Speaker 2: don't like what they're doing to him with this book thing.

880
00:39:04,360 --> 00:39:07,680
Speaker 2: Leave him alone. Just stop it already, please, Draymond Green.

881
00:39:07,760 --> 00:39:11,600
Speaker 2: Now he says he's portrayed as a quote angry black man.

882
00:39:11,760 --> 00:39:13,719
Speaker 2: Is that true? I don't think so, is it?

883
00:39:14,880 --> 00:39:17,360
Speaker 3: I mean I think sometimes I think sometimes the imagery

884
00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:19,720
Speaker 3: and those things play into stereotypes or whatever.

885
00:39:19,800 --> 00:39:21,160
Speaker 4: So I wouldn't say.

886
00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:24,400
Speaker 3: Maybe it's deliberate or intentional, but subconsciously, when you always

887
00:39:24,440 --> 00:39:27,520
Speaker 3: see Draymond, the clips that they choose are him being

888
00:39:28,080 --> 00:39:32,120
Speaker 3: in conflict and sometimes as a black man, he's just

889
00:39:32,200 --> 00:39:34,719
Speaker 3: kind of feeling like they never show him smiling or

890
00:39:34,719 --> 00:39:37,120
Speaker 3: being the happy, go lucky Draymond, which kind of plays

891
00:39:37,160 --> 00:39:38,000
Speaker 3: into the stereotypes.

892
00:39:38,400 --> 00:39:41,799
Speaker 2: Okay, I don't want to rate these holidays best to worse. Christmas, Thanksgiving,

893
00:39:42,320 --> 00:39:43,600
Speaker 2: Mother's Day, Father's Day.

894
00:39:46,440 --> 00:39:47,799
Speaker 4: That's to us. You can't pick the parents.

895
00:39:47,840 --> 00:39:51,240
Speaker 3: Some say Christmas, then Mother's in, Father's Day is a tie,

896
00:39:51,440 --> 00:39:52,640
Speaker 3: and anything else after that.

897
00:39:53,680 --> 00:39:56,800
Speaker 2: There we go. All right, the tops in the NFL,

898
00:39:57,320 --> 00:40:00,000
Speaker 2: Bucky Brooks hasn't for you, and so much more right here.

899
00:40:00,160 --> 00:40:05,479
Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio Sonday coming up next. Take a look

900
00:40:05,480 --> 00:40:08,760
Speaker 2: who tops this list that's coming right up. Good morning, everybody.

901
00:40:08,800 --> 00:40:11,799
Speaker 2: This is Fox Sports Sunday at Fox Sports Radio. We're

902
00:40:11,800 --> 00:40:14,839
Speaker 2: broadcasting live from the Fox Sports Radio studios. He's Bucky Broke,

903
00:40:14,920 --> 00:40:17,080
Speaker 2: some Andy Furman and Buck. We're getting ready to go

904
00:40:17,160 --> 00:40:19,920
Speaker 2: on Mother's Day right now. I guess you're gonna take

905
00:40:19,960 --> 00:40:22,080
Speaker 2: a little rest, clean up, and have a big day

906
00:40:22,120 --> 00:40:23,880
Speaker 2: with family today with mom.

907
00:40:24,520 --> 00:40:26,359
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, it should be. It should be a fun day.

908
00:40:27,120 --> 00:40:29,520
Speaker 3: Mom is back in North Carolina. I'm out here in Cali,

909
00:40:29,680 --> 00:40:32,320
Speaker 3: so I won't get a chance to uh directly you

910
00:40:32,400 --> 00:40:35,160
Speaker 3: hang out, but we'll FaceTime. We'll do some stuff and

911
00:40:35,200 --> 00:40:36,879
Speaker 3: i'll see him in a few weeks when I go home.

912
00:40:37,200 --> 00:40:38,840
Speaker 2: We'll have a happy Mother's Day to you when you

913
00:40:38,840 --> 00:40:40,480
Speaker 2: were today. But you know what, I want to go

914
00:40:40,560 --> 00:40:42,200
Speaker 2: back a little bit before we get into this heavy

915
00:40:42,239 --> 00:40:45,160
Speaker 2: duty football stuff that you did on NFL dot Com,

916
00:40:45,160 --> 00:40:46,960
Speaker 2: which I love, which is great, it really was. We'll

917
00:40:46,960 --> 00:40:48,960
Speaker 2: get into that in a second, but you know, we

918
00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:51,360
Speaker 2: talked about the playoffs right now, and you made a

919
00:40:51,400 --> 00:40:53,800
Speaker 2: great point early on. We talked about the Celtics and

920
00:40:53,960 --> 00:40:55,680
Speaker 2: you know, and they missed it when they took forty

921
00:40:55,719 --> 00:40:58,320
Speaker 2: five threes in Game two and they were like horrendous.

922
00:40:58,360 --> 00:41:01,520
Speaker 2: They just but they didn't move from their philosophy. That's

923
00:41:01,600 --> 00:41:05,560
Speaker 2: their game. And if you look under behind the curtain,

924
00:41:06,080 --> 00:41:08,640
Speaker 2: Joe Mizzoula, the Celtics coach. They become a three point

925
00:41:08,680 --> 00:41:11,000
Speaker 2: shooting kid. That's what they do. They live and die

926
00:41:11,040 --> 00:41:14,440
Speaker 2: by it. During the regular season, the Boston Celtics average

927
00:41:14,960 --> 00:41:18,680
Speaker 2: forty eight threes attempts. Again, they made seventeen, most in

928
00:41:18,840 --> 00:41:22,080
Speaker 2: NBA history. The Celtics had three players with at least

929
00:41:22,160 --> 00:41:24,919
Speaker 2: this is unbelievable, with at least two hundred may three

930
00:41:24,960 --> 00:41:28,920
Speaker 2: pointers White, Pritcher, and Jason Tatum, and Tatum at two fifty,

931
00:41:29,160 --> 00:41:32,439
Speaker 2: Pritchet at two fifty five. It's unbelievable. So basically, they're

932
00:41:32,440 --> 00:41:35,359
Speaker 2: not gonna they're not gonna move from that. That's what

933
00:41:35,400 --> 00:41:37,399
Speaker 2: they do. They live and die by it, and that

934
00:41:37,400 --> 00:41:39,600
Speaker 2: that's their philosophy. And they've had such you can't not

935
00:41:39,760 --> 00:41:43,000
Speaker 2: the success did the defending World champs. So the Knicks

936
00:41:43,040 --> 00:41:45,839
Speaker 2: need to know when we face the Celtics, that's what

937
00:41:45,840 --> 00:41:47,839
Speaker 2: they're doing. They're not going inside. You hit it right

938
00:41:47,840 --> 00:41:50,480
Speaker 2: on the head. Borzingis may be seven feet tall, but

939
00:41:50,920 --> 00:41:53,759
Speaker 2: he shoots. He shoots the three as well. He's not

940
00:41:53,840 --> 00:41:56,720
Speaker 2: a post player really, he doesn't play on the blocks.

941
00:41:56,880 --> 00:41:59,839
Speaker 2: He's on a team that basically lives and dies by.

942
00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:02,799
Speaker 3: I mean, that's what he does, and that's what they're

943
00:42:02,800 --> 00:42:04,520
Speaker 3: gonna continue to do. They're gonna live and die by

944
00:42:04,560 --> 00:42:09,120
Speaker 3: the three They believe in it. They've excelled by doing it,

945
00:42:09,480 --> 00:42:11,279
Speaker 3: and it's one of the things that you're just gonna

946
00:42:11,320 --> 00:42:13,920
Speaker 3: have to know when you're rocking with them, like they

947
00:42:14,040 --> 00:42:17,000
Speaker 3: are a three ball team, and if you're not able

948
00:42:17,040 --> 00:42:19,320
Speaker 3: to defend the three ball, then it's gonna be problematic.

949
00:42:20,120 --> 00:42:23,000
Speaker 2: All right, let's get into your meeting potatoes right now,

950
00:42:23,040 --> 00:42:26,360
Speaker 2: which is basically the NFL. And I love this because

951
00:42:26,920 --> 00:42:30,360
Speaker 2: you basically say the NFL free agency is basically done

952
00:42:30,680 --> 00:42:33,279
Speaker 2: and now the roster is complete. I can't believe I

953
00:42:33,360 --> 00:42:35,600
Speaker 2: have the practice sessions are going on already. I mean,

954
00:42:35,640 --> 00:42:37,719
Speaker 2: the NFL is just right around the corner. Never ends.

955
00:42:37,920 --> 00:42:41,200
Speaker 2: This Wednesday, they got the news conference for the schedule release.

956
00:42:41,280 --> 00:42:43,400
Speaker 2: We'll see what happens now. But you did a little

957
00:42:43,440 --> 00:42:48,200
Speaker 2: study on the best aerial attack because basically that's the

958
00:42:48,239 --> 00:42:52,320
Speaker 2: biggest way teams score right now, the run game is returned,

959
00:42:52,320 --> 00:42:55,600
Speaker 2: but they live and die obviously by the game passing

960
00:42:55,600 --> 00:42:57,239
Speaker 2: the ball in the air. And you had the best

961
00:42:57,239 --> 00:43:00,440
Speaker 2: pass catching groups in the NFL and you got the

962
00:43:00,480 --> 00:43:03,200
Speaker 2: top eight. I'm not gonna tell anybody right now until

963
00:43:03,200 --> 00:43:06,680
Speaker 2: we finish basically, which is number one. But it interests

964
00:43:06,719 --> 00:43:10,160
Speaker 2: me because you will have rating the quarterbacks in these group,

965
00:43:10,440 --> 00:43:12,960
Speaker 2: and I want to know who was more important in

966
00:43:12,960 --> 00:43:15,680
Speaker 2: this situation? Is it the receiver? Does he make the

967
00:43:15,719 --> 00:43:18,759
Speaker 2: quarterback or does the quarterback make the receiver? Because the

968
00:43:18,880 --> 00:43:20,560
Speaker 2: list surprised me in the sense because you had the

969
00:43:20,560 --> 00:43:22,960
Speaker 2: Minnesota Vikings up there. I'm not going to tell anybody

970
00:43:23,040 --> 00:43:25,120
Speaker 2: what ranking you had, then we'll do that later on.

971
00:43:25,360 --> 00:43:28,359
Speaker 2: But you had JJ McCarthy up there, and I don't

972
00:43:28,360 --> 00:43:30,480
Speaker 2: think he's a proven quarterback yet in the NFL.

973
00:43:31,480 --> 00:43:34,719
Speaker 3: He's not. But if we talk about quarterbacks coming in

974
00:43:34,760 --> 00:43:38,080
Speaker 3: two different categories, they come as trucks where they are

975
00:43:39,200 --> 00:43:42,680
Speaker 3: the person that carries the offense, or trailers where the

976
00:43:42,719 --> 00:43:46,919
Speaker 3: offense and supporting cast carries them. JJ McCarthy, we fall

977
00:43:46,960 --> 00:43:49,560
Speaker 3: into the trailer where he needs the supporting cast of

978
00:43:49,600 --> 00:43:52,359
Speaker 3: the Minnesota Vikings to carry him. But I would say

979
00:43:52,360 --> 00:43:55,879
Speaker 3: that wide receiver corp is built to carry a young

980
00:43:55,960 --> 00:43:59,520
Speaker 3: quarterback and experienced quarterback. Elevated quarterback. They elevated Sam Darnold

981
00:43:59,600 --> 00:44:01,600
Speaker 3: last year, why wouldn't they be able to do the same.

982
00:44:02,960 --> 00:44:05,880
Speaker 3: Look they wanted the best when it comes to Jordan Edison,

983
00:44:06,920 --> 00:44:10,040
Speaker 3: Justin Jefferson, TJ. Hockinson, they can get down and so

984
00:44:10,080 --> 00:44:12,040
Speaker 3: I look, I think they're wanted the best in the business.

985
00:44:12,080 --> 00:44:15,000
Speaker 3: I expect JJ McCarthy to play really, really well because

986
00:44:15,040 --> 00:44:16,680
Speaker 3: all he has to do is be a point guard.

987
00:44:16,800 --> 00:44:18,480
Speaker 3: It doesn't have to do too much, doesn't have to

988
00:44:18,480 --> 00:44:20,680
Speaker 3: get outside himself and be a playmaker. He can just

989
00:44:20,760 --> 00:44:22,160
Speaker 3: manage the game and have a lot of success.

990
00:44:22,160 --> 00:44:25,000
Speaker 2: To this team, okay, without any order, and we'll get

991
00:44:25,000 --> 00:44:27,400
Speaker 2: to the order later on. As I mentioned, let's know,

992
00:44:27,480 --> 00:44:29,319
Speaker 2: with the team that's near and dear to my heart

993
00:44:29,360 --> 00:44:31,399
Speaker 2: bigger as they're right in my backyard. It's all about

994
00:44:31,400 --> 00:44:35,400
Speaker 2: the Cincinnati Bengals, okay, and they I believe that the

995
00:44:35,480 --> 00:44:38,560
Speaker 2: signing of Jamar Chase and T Higgins Chase four years,

996
00:44:38,560 --> 00:44:40,879
Speaker 2: one hundred and sixty one mil, t Higgins four years,

997
00:44:40,880 --> 00:44:45,120
Speaker 2: one hundred and fifteen mil. I believe that the Bengals basically, look,

998
00:44:45,160 --> 00:44:47,600
Speaker 2: these guys are great players, although t Higgins I think

999
00:44:47,640 --> 00:44:50,640
Speaker 2: is injury prone. But I do believe that it was

1000
00:44:50,680 --> 00:44:54,400
Speaker 2: a situation the fans pushed the organization to do this.

1001
00:44:54,440 --> 00:44:56,960
Speaker 2: It would have been a real mad situation if they

1002
00:44:57,000 --> 00:44:59,600
Speaker 2: didn't do that. I think Joe Burrow, the quarterback, had

1003
00:44:59,600 --> 00:45:02,120
Speaker 2: a lot of with that too, don't you think. I mean,

1004
00:45:02,520 --> 00:45:05,239
Speaker 2: they're great players, but I think that they think they

1005
00:45:05,239 --> 00:45:07,720
Speaker 2: could have lived without one of them. Maybe.

1006
00:45:08,200 --> 00:45:10,680
Speaker 3: No, no, no, no, no no. Why would you break that up?

1007
00:45:10,680 --> 00:45:13,319
Speaker 3: Why would you break it up when it's so good? Remember, man,

1008
00:45:13,320 --> 00:45:16,799
Speaker 3: you want to make sure that you do no defense. Yeah,

1009
00:45:16,800 --> 00:45:19,279
Speaker 3: but just getting to be middle of the pack on

1010
00:45:19,360 --> 00:45:22,239
Speaker 3: defense and bringing your offense down doesn't help you get

1011
00:45:22,239 --> 00:45:23,359
Speaker 3: closer to a championship.

1012
00:45:23,760 --> 00:45:25,600
Speaker 4: You want to be great on one side of the ball.

1013
00:45:25,719 --> 00:45:27,799
Speaker 3: They have an opportunity to be great on offense with

1014
00:45:27,840 --> 00:45:30,920
Speaker 3: T Higgins and Jamar Chase and Mike Kasiki all signed

1015
00:45:31,200 --> 00:45:34,319
Speaker 3: to these blockbuster deals, and they're putting the onus on

1016
00:45:34,440 --> 00:45:37,640
Speaker 3: Joe Burrow too. Every time the Cincinnati Bengals show up

1017
00:45:37,640 --> 00:45:40,439
Speaker 3: in the stadium, the expectation should be that they're gonna

1018
00:45:40,440 --> 00:45:41,800
Speaker 3: score thirty plus points.

1019
00:45:42,080 --> 00:45:44,080
Speaker 4: And it's a lot easier to play.

1020
00:45:43,800 --> 00:45:46,560
Speaker 3: Defense when your team puts thirty on the board and

1021
00:45:46,600 --> 00:45:49,000
Speaker 3: you only have to generate two to three stops per game.

1022
00:45:49,840 --> 00:45:53,320
Speaker 3: What would have hurt the Bengals is you remove T Higgins.

1023
00:45:53,320 --> 00:45:55,480
Speaker 3: Now Jamar Chase has to do everything they can double

1024
00:45:55,520 --> 00:45:58,239
Speaker 3: team him because there's not a viable option on the

1025
00:45:58,320 --> 00:46:00,439
Speaker 3: other side. Now, I would say part of the reason

1026
00:46:00,520 --> 00:46:03,800
Speaker 3: why they had to resign T Higgins is because the

1027
00:46:03,840 --> 00:46:07,360
Speaker 3: guy that they may have drafted to replace him, Jermaine Burton,

1028
00:46:07,960 --> 00:46:09,600
Speaker 3: has not been able to do what he needed to

1029
00:46:09,600 --> 00:46:10,320
Speaker 3: do off.

1030
00:46:10,080 --> 00:46:11,880
Speaker 4: The field so he can get on the field and

1031
00:46:11,920 --> 00:46:12,560
Speaker 4: be productive.

1032
00:46:13,040 --> 00:46:15,400
Speaker 3: That also made it where they had to sign T

1033
00:46:15,520 --> 00:46:18,520
Speaker 3: Higgins because they don't have reliable options behind those guys.

1034
00:46:18,800 --> 00:46:21,880
Speaker 2: Okay, and I get it because as good as Jamar

1035
00:46:21,960 --> 00:46:23,759
Speaker 2: Chase is and when you win the Triple Crown, I

1036
00:46:23,800 --> 00:46:26,000
Speaker 2: don't think there's been a lot of hoopla about that,

1037
00:46:26,080 --> 00:46:28,520
Speaker 2: but that's tremendous. When you lead the league in receptions,

1038
00:46:28,560 --> 00:46:31,560
Speaker 2: receiving guards and touchdowns, which he did, you have to

1039
00:46:31,600 --> 00:46:33,920
Speaker 2: have a guy to kind of take a little pressure

1040
00:46:33,960 --> 00:46:36,240
Speaker 2: off of as a number two guy. And that's basically

1041
00:46:36,320 --> 00:46:38,880
Speaker 2: what T Higgins is. Very similar to why maybe the

1042
00:46:38,960 --> 00:46:42,000
Speaker 2: Dallas Cowboys got George Pickens because they take a little

1043
00:46:42,000 --> 00:46:44,439
Speaker 2: pressure off the number one guy. Ceedee lamb. You gotta

1044
00:46:44,480 --> 00:46:46,279
Speaker 2: have another guy. You have to have a running.

1045
00:46:46,040 --> 00:46:49,960
Speaker 3: Mate, oh one like you have to have that in place,

1046
00:46:50,080 --> 00:46:52,960
Speaker 3: like that needs to be a big part of what

1047
00:46:53,000 --> 00:46:55,120
Speaker 3: it is that you're doing and what you're counting on

1048
00:46:55,200 --> 00:46:58,600
Speaker 3: and all that other stuff, and we'll see how they

1049
00:46:58,680 --> 00:47:01,400
Speaker 3: able to get it done, what they're able to do

1050
00:47:01,480 --> 00:47:04,120
Speaker 3: with it in those things. But I look, I expect

1051
00:47:04,200 --> 00:47:07,279
Speaker 3: them to be very prolific on offense, and I've spent

1052
00:47:07,360 --> 00:47:09,600
Speaker 3: them be a much better team. Last year was a

1053
00:47:09,600 --> 00:47:11,480
Speaker 3: bit of an aperition because as bad as it was,

1054
00:47:11,520 --> 00:47:14,680
Speaker 3: they still almost work their way back into the postseason.

1055
00:47:15,640 --> 00:47:17,680
Speaker 2: They got to start the season better. That's the key.

1056
00:47:17,680 --> 00:47:20,040
Speaker 2: I mean, forget about the players on the roster. You know,

1057
00:47:20,120 --> 00:47:22,320
Speaker 2: you start the season and you dig yourself a whole

1058
00:47:22,520 --> 00:47:24,319
Speaker 2: at an opening day, you lose to the worst team

1059
00:47:24,320 --> 00:47:26,239
Speaker 2: in the league in the New England Patriots. It's not

1060
00:47:26,280 --> 00:47:28,120
Speaker 2: a good start. There were like one in four I

1061
00:47:28,160 --> 00:47:29,960
Speaker 2: believe at the speaginning of the season, and they have

1062
00:47:29,960 --> 00:47:32,560
Speaker 2: a tendency of starting the season that way. Is that

1063
00:47:32,640 --> 00:47:37,000
Speaker 2: because they're not playing their regulars in preseason or I

1064
00:47:37,280 --> 00:47:39,600
Speaker 2: don't know, there's gotta be a reason why the team

1065
00:47:39,640 --> 00:47:41,640
Speaker 2: gets up to a slow start. I don't know. I

1066
00:47:41,680 --> 00:47:42,680
Speaker 2: don't know why they do that.

1067
00:47:43,600 --> 00:47:46,120
Speaker 4: Some of that does have to do with them not.

1068
00:47:48,560 --> 00:47:51,239
Speaker 3: Playing their guys consistently, in the preseason, they get off

1069
00:47:51,239 --> 00:47:53,719
Speaker 3: to slower starts and so they're not they're not coming

1070
00:47:53,760 --> 00:47:55,960
Speaker 3: out of the gate fast in those things, and you

1071
00:47:56,040 --> 00:47:57,360
Speaker 3: got to come out fast if you're going to be

1072
00:47:57,400 --> 00:47:59,879
Speaker 3: able to compete at the highest level. And they're way

1073
00:48:00,040 --> 00:48:03,520
Speaker 3: seeing opportunities early because look, they.

1074
00:48:05,200 --> 00:48:07,280
Speaker 4: They're kind of like operating.

1075
00:48:06,800 --> 00:48:09,839
Speaker 3: On their different thing, like a little load management, not

1076
00:48:09,920 --> 00:48:11,560
Speaker 3: all the other stuff that they could be doing to

1077
00:48:11,560 --> 00:48:13,200
Speaker 3: put themselves in a position to get after.

1078
00:48:13,760 --> 00:48:16,720
Speaker 2: We'll give them a pass because last year Jamar Chase

1079
00:48:16,840 --> 00:48:19,359
Speaker 2: was kind of hungry for a contract and he showed

1080
00:48:19,440 --> 00:48:21,799
Speaker 2: up at practice, but he didn't practice because he didn't

1081
00:48:21,840 --> 00:48:24,440
Speaker 2: want to be fine, he's on the sidelines, not in uniform,

1082
00:48:24,440 --> 00:48:27,279
Speaker 2: and I think that in a sense may have sent

1083
00:48:27,360 --> 00:48:29,880
Speaker 2: some shock waves to the team. And you know, I

1084
00:48:29,920 --> 00:48:32,239
Speaker 2: think a lot of things, you know, disrupt teams. You

1085
00:48:32,320 --> 00:48:34,160
Speaker 2: know that you played the game, and I think that

1086
00:48:34,280 --> 00:48:37,320
Speaker 2: had a factor on why this team was not basically

1087
00:48:37,400 --> 00:48:39,800
Speaker 2: all in so to speak when the season started.

1088
00:48:41,200 --> 00:48:43,800
Speaker 3: That definitely has something to do with it. Like I

1089
00:48:43,840 --> 00:48:45,960
Speaker 3: would say that if the Bengals had taken care of

1090
00:48:46,040 --> 00:48:49,000
Speaker 3: business early year when it comes to the contract, yeah,

1091
00:48:49,040 --> 00:48:50,200
Speaker 3: they would have had more success.

1092
00:48:50,280 --> 00:48:52,799
Speaker 2: They would save money. They would save some money too.

1093
00:48:53,040 --> 00:48:56,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, yeah, I look, I'm with you. I agree,

1094
00:48:56,080 --> 00:48:58,160
Speaker 3: Like they would have been able to do all of

1095
00:48:58,200 --> 00:49:01,280
Speaker 3: that stuff. They just haven't been able to for whatever reason,

1096
00:49:01,800 --> 00:49:04,680
Speaker 3: they didn't make it happen. So it look, it's an issue,

1097
00:49:04,680 --> 00:49:07,200
Speaker 3: but they got it done. They're beyond it now and

1098
00:49:07,280 --> 00:49:08,920
Speaker 3: so now they can kind of move forward.

1099
00:49:09,520 --> 00:49:12,280
Speaker 2: Okay, Jim R. Chase a great player play at LSU.

1100
00:49:12,320 --> 00:49:14,480
Speaker 2: That's what Joe Burrow played. You could laugh at me

1101
00:49:14,520 --> 00:49:16,200
Speaker 2: if you want, but I want to ask you this question.

1102
00:49:16,640 --> 00:49:20,919
Speaker 2: Would T Higgins and Jamar Chase be as good as

1103
00:49:20,960 --> 00:49:24,880
Speaker 2: they are with either A without Joe Burrow or B

1104
00:49:25,080 --> 00:49:26,920
Speaker 2: on another team with a different quarterback.

1105
00:49:27,920 --> 00:49:28,520
Speaker 3: Look, it's hard.

1106
00:49:28,560 --> 00:49:30,359
Speaker 4: Joe Burr is one of the best quarterbacks in the league.

1107
00:49:30,440 --> 00:49:34,160
Speaker 3: You're always going to benefit from having a great quarterback

1108
00:49:34,360 --> 00:49:38,280
Speaker 3: slinging the ball to you. And I would anticipate them,

1109
00:49:38,760 --> 00:49:41,919
Speaker 3: you know, having success with anybody. But look, it ain't

1110
00:49:41,920 --> 00:49:44,000
Speaker 3: gonna be to the level of what they were having

1111
00:49:44,000 --> 00:49:48,839
Speaker 3: with Joe Beazy, like Joe Burrow special and that they

1112
00:49:48,960 --> 00:49:51,960
Speaker 3: need him, you know, to be able to kind of

1113
00:49:52,000 --> 00:49:53,400
Speaker 3: dial it up for him. So, yeah, they're in a

1114
00:49:53,480 --> 00:49:57,960
Speaker 3: nice situation. They're benefiting from playing with him. But I'm

1115
00:49:58,000 --> 00:50:01,520
Speaker 3: not gonna dismiss what they are, you know what I'm saying,

1116
00:50:01,640 --> 00:50:04,560
Speaker 3: just because Joe Burrow is slinging the bold right.

1117
00:50:04,719 --> 00:50:07,000
Speaker 2: I thought about the Philadelphia Eagles right now. I'd love

1118
00:50:07,040 --> 00:50:09,239
Speaker 2: to see Joe Burrow play behind the line like the

1119
00:50:09,239 --> 00:50:11,440
Speaker 2: Philadelphia Eagles has though a big six to eight three

1120
00:50:11,520 --> 00:50:13,839
Speaker 2: hundred pounders that's basically what he needs. But you had

1121
00:50:13,880 --> 00:50:16,160
Speaker 2: the Philadelphia Eagles right up there with a great pass

1122
00:50:16,200 --> 00:50:21,040
Speaker 2: catching situation Devonte Smith, AJ Brown, and you really, you know, honestly,

1123
00:50:21,440 --> 00:50:24,120
Speaker 2: you almost don't think about their receivers as much. They're

1124
00:50:24,440 --> 00:50:27,440
Speaker 2: overshadowed by Sakuon Barkley in a great defense.

1125
00:50:29,920 --> 00:50:36,439
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's funny, right because, like I thought that when

1126
00:50:36,520 --> 00:50:39,000
Speaker 3: Kellen Moore took over, that they were gonna be throwing

1127
00:50:39,040 --> 00:50:40,799
Speaker 3: it all over the yard and that wasn't gonna play

1128
00:50:40,800 --> 00:50:42,760
Speaker 3: to the strengths of their team, which is their office

1129
00:50:42,760 --> 00:50:44,480
Speaker 3: in line to run a game and a dual threat

1130
00:50:44,800 --> 00:50:48,040
Speaker 3: ability that Jalen Hurts presents. But they found a way

1131
00:50:48,080 --> 00:50:51,239
Speaker 3: to do both. They ran the football effectively and then

1132
00:50:51,280 --> 00:50:54,720
Speaker 3: they rely on AJ Brown and Devonte Smith to make plays.

1133
00:50:54,760 --> 00:50:56,839
Speaker 3: Both of these guys are capable of being number one

1134
00:50:57,239 --> 00:51:01,600
Speaker 3: receivers for any team, but they have sacrificed their own

1135
00:51:01,680 --> 00:51:05,000
Speaker 3: numbers to make sure that the team is very, very successful.

1136
00:51:05,520 --> 00:51:08,040
Speaker 3: But make no mistake, man, they are very difficult to

1137
00:51:08,080 --> 00:51:11,520
Speaker 3: defend because they have so many weapons on perimeter to

1138
00:51:11,600 --> 00:51:13,319
Speaker 3: compliment what they're able to do in the run game.

1139
00:51:13,960 --> 00:51:16,360
Speaker 2: And I would say this, I would say A. J.

1140
00:51:16,600 --> 00:51:19,480
Speaker 2: Brown and DeVante Smith are two of the receivers that

1141
00:51:19,680 --> 00:51:23,240
Speaker 2: make Jalen Hurts. I mean, Jalen Hurts I don't think

1142
00:51:23,560 --> 00:51:26,319
Speaker 2: is on the same plateau as Joe Burrow, but I

1143
00:51:26,360 --> 00:51:28,480
Speaker 2: think you think he is.

1144
00:51:28,600 --> 00:51:31,040
Speaker 4: Uh. I'm not saying that, but I'm just listening. I'm

1145
00:51:31,080 --> 00:51:31,520
Speaker 4: just listening.

1146
00:51:31,600 --> 00:51:34,799
Speaker 2: Taking Brow. I'm not saying he's head and shoulders above

1147
00:51:34,880 --> 00:51:37,719
Speaker 2: Jalen Hurts, but he's a better quarterback than If I

1148
00:51:37,719 --> 00:51:39,759
Speaker 2: had a choice of either one of my team, I'm

1149
00:51:39,800 --> 00:51:40,600
Speaker 2: taking Joe Burrow.

1150
00:51:40,840 --> 00:51:43,759
Speaker 3: What about you, Nah, I get that I would take

1151
00:51:43,800 --> 00:51:45,719
Speaker 3: Joe Burrow. I mean, we're talking about Joe Burrow, top

1152
00:51:45,760 --> 00:51:49,919
Speaker 3: five quarterback. I think Jalen Hurts is knocking on the door.

1153
00:51:50,000 --> 00:51:51,760
Speaker 3: I mean, we can say a lot of things about

1154
00:51:52,080 --> 00:51:55,040
Speaker 3: him and stylistically or whatever, but we've seen this guy

1155
00:51:55,160 --> 00:51:57,840
Speaker 3: lead his team to two Super Bowls. We've seen him

1156
00:51:58,160 --> 00:52:01,160
Speaker 3: out play Pat Mahomes on the big stage and he's

1157
00:52:01,160 --> 00:52:05,440
Speaker 3: earned a Super Bowl MVP. Look, it may not be

1158
00:52:06,000 --> 00:52:10,200
Speaker 3: classic textbook exactly how you want it, but it's hard

1159
00:52:10,239 --> 00:52:12,319
Speaker 3: to knock what he's been able to bring to the

1160
00:52:12,360 --> 00:52:14,400
Speaker 3: table as a second round pick who has become a

1161
00:52:14,400 --> 00:52:16,120
Speaker 3: franchise quarterback in Philadelphia.

1162
00:52:16,160 --> 00:52:19,520
Speaker 2: But he's at a better personnel in total than the

1163
00:52:19,560 --> 00:52:23,719
Speaker 2: Cincinnati Bengals, and Joe Burrow was at better personnel defensive

1164
00:52:23,719 --> 00:52:27,440
Speaker 2: side of the ball, great defense, really better protection in

1165
00:52:27,560 --> 00:52:28,480
Speaker 2: Joe Burrow.

1166
00:52:28,719 --> 00:52:31,560
Speaker 3: A little bit. But yeah, but I think yeah, but

1167
00:52:31,640 --> 00:52:33,680
Speaker 3: Joe Burrow came in as the number one overall pick.

1168
00:52:33,760 --> 00:52:36,560
Speaker 3: Jalen Hurst was the second round pick. No one expecting

1169
00:52:36,640 --> 00:52:39,680
Speaker 3: him to ascend to this level. That was the expectation

1170
00:52:40,320 --> 00:52:43,000
Speaker 3: for Joe Burrow. He came in as the number one

1171
00:52:43,120 --> 00:52:46,879
Speaker 3: overall pick because he was viewed as a franchise savior. Yeah,

1172
00:52:46,920 --> 00:52:50,520
Speaker 3: the supporting cast around jalen Hurst has been phenomenal. But look,

1173
00:52:51,120 --> 00:52:54,160
Speaker 3: jaalden Hurst has created an unstoppable play in the tush push.

1174
00:52:54,480 --> 00:52:56,520
Speaker 3: Jalen Hurst has put the ball in the paint a

1175
00:52:56,560 --> 00:52:59,719
Speaker 3: ton as a runner and has become a very competent

1176
00:52:59,760 --> 00:53:00,960
Speaker 3: and effective passer.

1177
00:53:01,840 --> 00:53:02,520
Speaker 4: Joe Burrow.

1178
00:53:02,960 --> 00:53:06,120
Speaker 3: On the landscape or the hierarchy of quarterbacks, he would

1179
00:53:06,160 --> 00:53:09,799
Speaker 3: be above Jalen Hurst. But Jalen Hurts also has stuff

1180
00:53:09,840 --> 00:53:12,640
Speaker 3: that Joe Burrow doesn't have as a super Bowl champion

1181
00:53:12,680 --> 00:53:14,240
Speaker 3: and as a Super Bowl MVP.

1182
00:53:15,600 --> 00:53:17,719
Speaker 2: Was it Peyton man I read this somewhech maybe it

1183
00:53:17,719 --> 00:53:21,360
Speaker 2: can help me out. Someone a retired quarterback said publicly

1184
00:53:21,719 --> 00:53:25,080
Speaker 2: that Joe Burrow should, in fact could, in fact win

1185
00:53:25,239 --> 00:53:28,520
Speaker 2: five Super Bowls? Was that Peyton? I think Peyton Manning

1186
00:53:28,560 --> 00:53:31,600
Speaker 2: said that about Joe Burrow, And I'm wondering, like, if

1187
00:53:31,600 --> 00:53:34,239
Speaker 2: in fact, Joe Burrow becomes a free agent and he's

1188
00:53:34,239 --> 00:53:36,800
Speaker 2: not winning a super Bowl in Cincinnati, would he jump.

1189
00:53:37,760 --> 00:53:40,160
Speaker 4: He's won, He's never becoming a free agent.

1190
00:53:40,800 --> 00:53:44,400
Speaker 3: You don't see those quarterbacks ever become a free agent.

1191
00:53:44,640 --> 00:53:47,960
Speaker 3: Like he's more likely to retire than become a free agent.

1192
00:53:48,080 --> 00:53:50,920
Speaker 3: So yeah, I don't think that's in the cars.

1193
00:53:50,760 --> 00:53:52,440
Speaker 2: But I do think it would be a shame if

1194
00:53:52,440 --> 00:53:55,720
Speaker 2: he never won at least one super Bowl with his talent,

1195
00:53:56,040 --> 00:53:56,680
Speaker 2: it will be a shame.

1196
00:53:56,760 --> 00:53:59,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm with you, like you would like to see

1197
00:53:59,560 --> 00:54:02,440
Speaker 3: him win, but they don't get those things away like

1198
00:54:02,480 --> 00:54:05,040
Speaker 3: it's hard to win. It's hard to win titles. You know,

1199
00:54:05,080 --> 00:54:06,759
Speaker 3: a lot of things have to go your way. Yeah,

1200
00:54:06,760 --> 00:54:08,200
Speaker 3: a lot of things have to go your way forward

1201
00:54:08,239 --> 00:54:09,160
Speaker 3: to work out.

1202
00:54:09,520 --> 00:54:12,360
Speaker 2: We'll see what happened. Okay, we touched on the Minnesota Vikings.

1203
00:54:12,360 --> 00:54:16,600
Speaker 2: You have them in your list's top pass receiving ball clubs.

1204
00:54:16,840 --> 00:54:21,480
Speaker 2: JJ McCarthy's kind of repeat of the remodeling. As you

1205
00:54:21,520 --> 00:54:24,719
Speaker 2: mentioned the offensive line. But they do have Justin Jefferson,

1206
00:54:24,840 --> 00:54:30,120
Speaker 2: great player, Jordan Madison, and they're tight end. TJ. Hutkinson soays,

1207
00:54:30,160 --> 00:54:34,560
Speaker 2: these guys really help. I mean again, Sam Donald basically

1208
00:54:34,640 --> 00:54:36,359
Speaker 2: was thrown out of New York. He was booed at

1209
00:54:36,400 --> 00:54:38,759
Speaker 2: the media pushed him out of there, and he had

1210
00:54:38,800 --> 00:54:41,520
Speaker 2: a career year in twenty twenty four. So I think

1211
00:54:41,560 --> 00:54:44,280
Speaker 2: those guys had a lot to do with the success

1212
00:54:44,440 --> 00:54:47,160
Speaker 2: and the resurgence, if you will, of Sam Donald.

1213
00:54:48,960 --> 00:54:52,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, look a lot of it. You know, Sam,

1214
00:54:52,560 --> 00:54:54,399
Speaker 3: We can talk about it like the stability and those

1215
00:54:54,440 --> 00:54:57,880
Speaker 3: things like that. Sam Donald needed to be able to

1216
00:54:57,920 --> 00:55:00,960
Speaker 3: take his game to another level. And when we talk

1217
00:55:01,000 --> 00:55:03,680
Speaker 3: about all quarterbacks, I think sometimes when we talk about quarterbacks,

1218
00:55:03,719 --> 00:55:07,600
Speaker 3: we act as if they operate in a silo by themselves.

1219
00:55:07,600 --> 00:55:10,040
Speaker 3: But the reality is they have to have everything around

1220
00:55:10,120 --> 00:55:13,680
Speaker 3: them to play at that level. Offensive line, playmakers and

1221
00:55:13,680 --> 00:55:16,360
Speaker 3: all that. So it's all part of the mix. You

1222
00:55:16,400 --> 00:55:18,960
Speaker 3: got to make sure that when you identify the right quarterback,

1223
00:55:19,000 --> 00:55:20,400
Speaker 3: that you surrounded with the right.

1224
00:55:20,280 --> 00:55:22,720
Speaker 4: Pieces that elevates his game.

1225
00:55:23,840 --> 00:55:25,480
Speaker 3: And what we've seen on some of these lists and

1226
00:55:25,480 --> 00:55:27,520
Speaker 3: some of these people like you got playmakers that do.

1227
00:55:27,520 --> 00:55:31,040
Speaker 2: That football and you play the game and you know this,

1228
00:55:31,120 --> 00:55:35,000
Speaker 2: I mean, it's nothing new. It is the ultimate team game.

1229
00:55:35,440 --> 00:55:37,520
Speaker 2: I mean in basketball, if you got a guy that

1230
00:55:37,600 --> 00:55:40,200
Speaker 2: averages forty five a game, there's a good chance you

1231
00:55:40,200 --> 00:55:42,600
Speaker 2: could win, although you probably need that big three thing

1232
00:55:43,239 --> 00:55:46,120
Speaker 2: to win big time in the NBA, but you could win.

1233
00:55:46,120 --> 00:55:48,360
Speaker 2: At least in the college game. We saw that would do.

1234
00:55:48,520 --> 00:55:50,840
Speaker 2: They got one big man, you win. But football is

1235
00:55:50,840 --> 00:55:53,440
Speaker 2: the ultimate team game, like almost like a chain lean fence.

1236
00:55:53,640 --> 00:55:56,520
Speaker 2: Everybody does their part. However, you know, as far as

1237
00:55:56,600 --> 00:55:59,239
Speaker 2: fans are concerned, and even immedia to some extent, it's

1238
00:55:59,280 --> 00:56:01,880
Speaker 2: all about the quarter and I don't think that's fair

1239
00:56:02,000 --> 00:56:04,680
Speaker 2: for the quarterback. I mean, the quarterback could only be

1240
00:56:04,760 --> 00:56:07,879
Speaker 2: as successful as his offensive line, the running game, the

1241
00:56:07,920 --> 00:56:10,399
Speaker 2: passing game, whatever it may be, and we've seen that,

1242
00:56:10,440 --> 00:56:13,560
Speaker 2: but the quarterback gets so much hype and so much

1243
00:56:13,600 --> 00:56:18,280
Speaker 2: responsibility and so much blame. Blame as well as success

1244
00:56:18,360 --> 00:56:20,600
Speaker 2: factor as well, but so much blame. When you talk

1245
00:56:20,640 --> 00:56:23,920
Speaker 2: about the MVP trophy, it's always quarterback, the MVP of

1246
00:56:23,920 --> 00:56:26,400
Speaker 2: the Super Bowl, it's always the quarterback. The quarterback, that's everything.

1247
00:56:26,480 --> 00:56:29,000
Speaker 2: It's all seted around him. But it's a team game.

1248
00:56:29,040 --> 00:56:31,239
Speaker 2: It's like a chain link fence. If one goes down

1249
00:56:31,560 --> 00:56:34,080
Speaker 2: the offensive line, you're in bad shape. And that's when

1250
00:56:34,080 --> 00:56:36,279
Speaker 2: we've seen that. But unless you're a student of the

1251
00:56:36,280 --> 00:56:38,840
Speaker 2: game like you Bucket Brooks, I mean, the average Joe

1252
00:56:38,880 --> 00:56:39,799
Speaker 2: doesn't think that way.

1253
00:56:41,560 --> 00:56:43,879
Speaker 3: I mean, look, they get a lot of hype, they

1254
00:56:43,920 --> 00:56:47,640
Speaker 3: get a lot of acclaim and all this stuff, and

1255
00:56:47,719 --> 00:56:52,919
Speaker 3: some of that is deserved. But I mean, there's much

1256
00:56:52,960 --> 00:56:57,640
Speaker 3: more to the game than quarterback. And uh, there's more

1257
00:56:57,680 --> 00:57:00,759
Speaker 3: to building a championship team than having the quarterback. You

1258
00:57:00,840 --> 00:57:03,120
Speaker 3: have to have a team. The teams that went ultimately

1259
00:57:03,680 --> 00:57:05,879
Speaker 3: have the best team. But the quarterback is a big

1260
00:57:05,880 --> 00:57:07,719
Speaker 3: piece because the quarterback is he only got to touch

1261
00:57:07,840 --> 00:57:12,000
Speaker 3: the ball every time, and so his decisions matter, and

1262
00:57:12,239 --> 00:57:15,840
Speaker 3: if he doesn't take care of the rock if he

1263
00:57:15,920 --> 00:57:17,680
Speaker 3: doesn't make the plays that are there to be made,

1264
00:57:17,840 --> 00:57:19,840
Speaker 3: it can be tough for a team to overcome it.

1265
00:57:20,120 --> 00:57:22,560
Speaker 2: All Right, We talked about the Minnesota Vikas JJ McCarthy

1266
00:57:22,600 --> 00:57:24,400
Speaker 2: and basically, he's got these guys. They're gonna help him

1267
00:57:24,400 --> 00:57:27,200
Speaker 2: make look good. Okay, because Sam Donald was running out

1268
00:57:27,200 --> 00:57:29,640
Speaker 2: of New York with the Jets, very similar situation with

1269
00:57:29,680 --> 00:57:32,960
Speaker 2: Baker Mayfield. He bounced around the league. People didn't think

1270
00:57:32,960 --> 00:57:35,240
Speaker 2: he'd make it all of a sudden. Now he's right

1271
00:57:35,280 --> 00:57:36,960
Speaker 2: there and at the top of the Tampa Bay Bucks.

1272
00:57:36,960 --> 00:57:39,880
Speaker 2: Why he's got Mike Evans and Chris Godwin. I mean,

1273
00:57:39,880 --> 00:57:42,720
Speaker 2: that's basically what they have helped make him look. He

1274
00:57:42,840 --> 00:57:45,600
Speaker 2: had the skill set, there's no doubt, but he needed

1275
00:57:45,640 --> 00:57:48,959
Speaker 2: those guys to show people he could play and play

1276
00:57:48,960 --> 00:57:50,800
Speaker 2: the game well. And he does and he's done real

1277
00:57:50,840 --> 00:57:51,560
Speaker 2: well with Tampa.

1278
00:57:52,400 --> 00:57:53,760
Speaker 4: He has done real well with Tampa.

1279
00:57:53,840 --> 00:57:57,120
Speaker 3: And I don't want to dismiss Baker's talents and say

1280
00:57:57,160 --> 00:57:59,120
Speaker 3: that they did everything for him.

1281
00:58:00,040 --> 00:58:01,360
Speaker 4: Ques number one overall pick.

1282
00:58:01,400 --> 00:58:04,280
Speaker 3: He had success in Cleveland, had to bounce around a

1283
00:58:04,320 --> 00:58:06,640
Speaker 3: little bit to find a situation that was right for

1284
00:58:07,080 --> 00:58:10,400
Speaker 3: not only his skill set, but his personality and his swag,

1285
00:58:10,480 --> 00:58:11,640
Speaker 3: and Tampa has.

1286
00:58:11,520 --> 00:58:13,520
Speaker 4: Been the right mix for him.

1287
00:58:13,920 --> 00:58:16,240
Speaker 3: He has been the perfect leader for them, the perfect

1288
00:58:16,240 --> 00:58:18,720
Speaker 3: playmaker for him, and then the weapons that they put

1289
00:58:18,760 --> 00:58:22,040
Speaker 3: around him has not only allowed him to flourish, but

1290
00:58:22,040 --> 00:58:24,840
Speaker 3: it's allowed this Tampa Bay Buccaneers team to flourish, as

1291
00:58:24,880 --> 00:58:27,880
Speaker 3: they've won four straight Division crowns and continue to be

1292
00:58:27,960 --> 00:58:30,680
Speaker 3: one of the better offenses in football.

1293
00:58:30,720 --> 00:58:32,480
Speaker 2: I will say this, you keep on mentioning the fact

1294
00:58:32,480 --> 00:58:34,760
Speaker 2: that he's a number one picked the Dale. Number one pick,

1295
00:58:34,760 --> 00:58:36,600
Speaker 2: in my mind, doesn't necessarily mean you're going to be

1296
00:58:36,640 --> 00:58:39,280
Speaker 2: a star. Wasn't Vinnie Testaverdi at number one pick and

1297
00:58:39,320 --> 00:58:41,120
Speaker 2: he was a Heisman winner? What did he doan?

1298
00:58:41,200 --> 00:58:43,959
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it doesn't mean that, but it meant

1299
00:58:44,080 --> 00:58:46,760
Speaker 3: it means. There's a significance to being the number one

1300
00:58:46,800 --> 00:58:50,440
Speaker 3: overall pick, not only being recognized as being the best

1301
00:58:50,440 --> 00:58:52,760
Speaker 3: player in the draft right because you're taking number one,

1302
00:58:52,840 --> 00:58:55,800
Speaker 3: But what it means is, particularly as a quarterback, there

1303
00:58:55,920 --> 00:58:59,480
Speaker 3: is an expectation that you are a franchise saver, that

1304
00:58:59,520 --> 00:59:03,520
Speaker 3: we are we are able to take you, put you

1305
00:59:03,560 --> 00:59:05,760
Speaker 3: in the right environment, and that you can lead our

1306
00:59:05,800 --> 00:59:08,480
Speaker 3: franchise to higher heights. You can say whatever you want

1307
00:59:08,480 --> 00:59:12,480
Speaker 3: about Baker Mayfield and why went sideways in Cleveland. He

1308
00:59:12,600 --> 00:59:15,400
Speaker 3: took a team that was in the dumps and got

1309
00:59:15,440 --> 00:59:18,960
Speaker 3: them to the postseason, which is an expectation, a reasonable

1310
00:59:19,000 --> 00:59:20,680
Speaker 3: expectation for number.

1311
00:59:20,400 --> 00:59:21,320
Speaker 4: One overall pick.

1312
00:59:21,360 --> 00:59:22,880
Speaker 3: And so I want to make sure I give him

1313
00:59:22,920 --> 00:59:26,880
Speaker 3: his flowers because there is significance to being number one.

1314
00:59:26,920 --> 00:59:30,240
Speaker 3: There's an expectation that you're supposed to meet. And I

1315
00:59:30,240 --> 00:59:33,280
Speaker 3: would say that now that we're looking at Baker's career

1316
00:59:33,800 --> 00:59:36,640
Speaker 3: in total, I think we can say that he has

1317
00:59:36,760 --> 00:59:39,560
Speaker 3: met the standard of expectation when it comes to being

1318
00:59:39,560 --> 00:59:41,720
Speaker 3: a number one overall pick. He just didn't meet it

1319
00:59:41,800 --> 00:59:44,960
Speaker 3: all in Cleveland, but he certainly is satisfied that expectation

1320
00:59:45,040 --> 00:59:45,840
Speaker 3: in Tampa.

1321
00:59:46,000 --> 00:59:48,400
Speaker 2: Okay, So now you're telling me that simply because cam

1322
00:59:48,480 --> 00:59:51,520
Speaker 2: Ward is a number one pick with Tennessee, he's a

1323
00:59:51,560 --> 00:59:53,920
Speaker 2: franchise saver or he should be. Well they hope he

1324
00:59:54,080 --> 00:59:54,480
Speaker 2: gould be.

1325
00:59:55,160 --> 00:59:58,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's why you take him. Otherwise, take him number one.

1326
00:59:58,720 --> 01:00:02,240
Speaker 3: You're taking them. You're taking him number one because the talent,

1327
01:00:03,240 --> 01:00:05,720
Speaker 3: the tools, all that other stuff suggest that he's worthy

1328
01:00:05,760 --> 01:00:09,680
Speaker 3: of being taken early. But then you've met him and

1329
01:00:09,760 --> 01:00:12,720
Speaker 3: you believe that, Hey, if we hit your wagon to

1330
01:00:12,920 --> 01:00:15,600
Speaker 3: this player. He is going to get us out of

1331
01:00:15,600 --> 01:00:18,400
Speaker 3: whatever mess that we're in because we're picking first.

1332
01:00:18,680 --> 01:00:20,919
Speaker 4: That's the expectation. Otherwise you would pass.

1333
01:00:21,920 --> 01:00:25,560
Speaker 2: Okay, here's a situation which I find very funny. Normally,

1334
01:00:26,080 --> 01:00:29,400
Speaker 2: that first pick, that first quarterback pick in the draft,

1335
01:00:29,640 --> 01:00:31,560
Speaker 2: you read about him on a daily Baby. You haven't

1336
01:00:31,560 --> 01:00:34,680
Speaker 2: heard squat about cam Ward. You have heard more about

1337
01:00:34,680 --> 01:00:37,480
Speaker 2: your door Sanders over the last two weeks from the draft.

1338
01:00:37,640 --> 01:00:40,280
Speaker 2: Then you heard about cam Ward. And he's probably going

1339
01:00:40,320 --> 01:00:42,600
Speaker 2: to be really happy about that too, because he doesn't

1340
01:00:42,640 --> 01:00:46,120
Speaker 2: want that undue pressure. He probably doesn't want that. He's

1341
01:00:46,160 --> 01:00:48,840
Speaker 2: probably tickled pig they're not talking and writing about him.

1342
01:00:50,000 --> 01:00:53,880
Speaker 3: I would say this, I would say that cam Ward

1343
01:00:54,200 --> 01:00:56,760
Speaker 3: is a dog. He is an alpha dog personality. He's

1344
01:00:56,760 --> 01:00:59,400
Speaker 3: as competitive as it comes, and just because people are

1345
01:00:59,400 --> 01:01:02,240
Speaker 3: not talking about him doesn't mean that he's not ready

1346
01:01:03,080 --> 01:01:06,000
Speaker 3: to make it happen when it comes when he has

1347
01:01:06,000 --> 01:01:10,920
Speaker 3: his opportunity to play. He is built to be a

1348
01:01:10,960 --> 01:01:14,040
Speaker 3: Tennessee Titans quarterback based on the similarities in his game

1349
01:01:14,120 --> 01:01:17,120
Speaker 3: to me, to Steve McNair, and when Steve McNair was

1350
01:01:17,160 --> 01:01:20,000
Speaker 3: the leader of that franchise first in Houston, at Tennessee. Man,

1351
01:01:20,040 --> 01:01:22,640
Speaker 3: they had a ruggedness about him that was sparked by

1352
01:01:22,640 --> 01:01:25,800
Speaker 3: the quarterback. Same thing I expect and see from cam Ward.

1353
01:01:26,240 --> 01:01:27,960
Speaker 3: He's going to have a lot of success. But look,

1354
01:01:28,000 --> 01:01:29,840
Speaker 3: I will say this and you kind of led us there.

1355
01:01:31,120 --> 01:01:37,640
Speaker 3: It is amazing how we are just enamored by the

1356
01:01:37,680 --> 01:01:42,760
Speaker 3: clickbake status of Shoulder Sanders and that never have we

1357
01:01:42,800 --> 01:01:46,960
Speaker 3: seen a fifth round pick Garner so much attention over

1358
01:01:47,000 --> 01:01:49,640
Speaker 3: the course of the weeks after being drafted. So when

1359
01:01:49,680 --> 01:01:53,120
Speaker 3: we thought Shoulder Sanders being drafted in the fifth round

1360
01:01:53,160 --> 01:01:57,120
Speaker 3: was an indictment on his talent or the people that

1361
01:01:57,200 --> 01:02:00,080
Speaker 3: hated his game, was like, see, I told you he

1362
01:02:00,160 --> 01:02:01,600
Speaker 3: definitely can't stop looking at it.

1363
01:02:01,640 --> 01:02:03,800
Speaker 4: Every time I look at the.

1364
01:02:03,760 --> 01:02:07,360
Speaker 3: Stuff on x or Twitter or reels, Instagram, all this

1365
01:02:07,880 --> 01:02:11,880
Speaker 3: it is all about Schrder Sanders and the star power

1366
01:02:12,280 --> 01:02:16,120
Speaker 3: that he brings. Like him or not as a player. Man,

1367
01:02:17,000 --> 01:02:20,240
Speaker 3: I've heard number one in Jersey sales already. People are

1368
01:02:20,360 --> 01:02:23,240
Speaker 3: like they can't get enough of talking about him. The

1369
01:02:23,320 --> 01:02:26,720
Speaker 3: haters and they sayers are all hitching their wagon to them.

1370
01:02:26,960 --> 01:02:31,000
Speaker 3: It's a very interesting thing because he has dominated all

1371
01:02:31,040 --> 01:02:34,560
Speaker 3: of the draft coverage and even after the draft, he's

1372
01:02:34,560 --> 01:02:37,960
Speaker 3: still the most dominant player or the biggest personality to

1373
01:02:37,960 --> 01:02:39,400
Speaker 3: come out of the draft, which is why you don't

1374
01:02:39,440 --> 01:02:41,640
Speaker 3: hear about the other guys, because all of our attention

1375
01:02:41,800 --> 01:02:44,400
Speaker 3: is thrown into Cleveland and what is going to happen

1376
01:02:44,440 --> 01:02:45,280
Speaker 3: with Shooter Sanders.

1377
01:02:45,320 --> 01:02:47,160
Speaker 2: It's unreal. We got a couple more teams to get to.

1378
01:02:47,200 --> 01:02:49,320
Speaker 2: We'll do that momentarily, but right now, be sure to

Speaker 2: crossed the fifty yard line what we call Fox Sports

1395
01:03:36,600 --> 01:03:38,760
Speaker 2: Sunday right here on Fox Sports Radio. Yeah, you r

1396
01:03:38,800 --> 01:03:40,800
Speaker 2: NA coming up in about twelve minutes or so. I

1397
01:03:40,840 --> 01:03:45,320
Speaker 2: want to finish this combination, this passing combination, receivers combination

1398
01:03:45,360 --> 01:03:47,880
Speaker 2: at Bucket Brooks put together at NFL dot com. And

1399
01:03:47,960 --> 01:03:50,880
Speaker 2: let's move along now to the LA Rams. And I

1400
01:03:50,920 --> 01:03:54,560
Speaker 2: think more than anybody else involved with that pass catching situation,

1401
01:03:54,680 --> 01:03:57,600
Speaker 2: not Matthew Stafford as much as they're coach Sam McVay,

1402
01:03:57,680 --> 01:04:01,640
Speaker 2: who's I think an offensive genius.

1403
01:04:01,440 --> 01:04:04,120
Speaker 3: He's definitely an offensive genius, and he's been able to

1404
01:04:04,120 --> 01:04:05,800
Speaker 3: do it a few different ways. When he first got

1405
01:04:05,800 --> 01:04:09,000
Speaker 3: to LA, he had a bunch of interchangeable parts that

1406
01:04:09,160 --> 01:04:12,240
Speaker 3: all work. At the time, it was Brandon Cooks, Robert

1407
01:04:12,280 --> 01:04:15,440
Speaker 3: Woods and Cooper Cup and those guys could play any spot.

1408
01:04:15,480 --> 01:04:17,520
Speaker 3: They were moving around. They were innovative when it came

1409
01:04:17,560 --> 01:04:20,840
Speaker 3: to the jet, sweep, fly, sweet motion and all of that. Now,

1410
01:04:20,920 --> 01:04:24,520
Speaker 3: as he's advanced with Matthew Stafford, their offense is a

1411
01:04:24,560 --> 01:04:28,160
Speaker 3: little different, but the success remains. And one of the

1412
01:04:28,200 --> 01:04:31,000
Speaker 3: things that he has now with Cooper not but with

1413
01:04:31,040 --> 01:04:34,080
Speaker 3: Pooka Nakua and DeVante Adams. He has two guys that

1414
01:04:34,080 --> 01:04:38,160
Speaker 3: can share the marquee as wide receiver ones. And DeVante

1415
01:04:38,200 --> 01:04:41,120
Speaker 3: Adams is an outstanding route runner, even though I would.

1416
01:04:40,960 --> 01:04:43,920
Speaker 4: Say his games his game.

1417
01:04:43,760 --> 01:04:46,000
Speaker 3: Has declined a little bit in terms of like, he's

1418
01:04:46,000 --> 01:04:48,120
Speaker 3: not as fast as he was, he's not as explosive

1419
01:04:48,280 --> 01:04:49,960
Speaker 3: dynamic as he was, but he's still a really good

1420
01:04:49,960 --> 01:04:53,280
Speaker 3: football player. Sean mcvagh now has the ability to really

1421
01:04:54,480 --> 01:04:57,360
Speaker 3: draw up winners that can allow these route runners to

1422
01:04:57,400 --> 01:04:57,800
Speaker 3: get open.

1423
01:04:57,880 --> 01:04:59,080
Speaker 4: So Davanta Adams.

1424
01:04:58,840 --> 01:05:01,200
Speaker 3: On one side, the cool on the other side, who's

1425
01:05:01,200 --> 01:05:04,800
Speaker 3: really an underrated athlete but a big body playmaker. They

1426
01:05:04,840 --> 01:05:06,960
Speaker 3: have some weapons and they were Tyler Higbee and too

1427
01:05:06,960 --> 01:05:11,080
Speaker 3: too at well, they're just a really really dynamic and

1428
01:05:11,360 --> 01:05:13,080
Speaker 3: versatile wide receiver corps.

1429
01:05:13,320 --> 01:05:15,680
Speaker 2: All right, we move along right now. The Detroit lines.

1430
01:05:15,720 --> 01:05:18,000
Speaker 2: Big questions right now, not so much personal wise, but

1431
01:05:18,000 --> 01:05:20,760
Speaker 2: they lose Ben Johnson, the offensive coordinator. Was it Ben

1432
01:05:20,840 --> 01:05:23,680
Speaker 2: Johnson that made the offensive tick? Or was it the players?

1433
01:05:23,720 --> 01:05:27,440
Speaker 2: Because not really all pro kind of guys. They got

1434
01:05:27,440 --> 01:05:29,800
Speaker 2: to tight end Sam Laporter, but other than that, really

1435
01:05:29,880 --> 01:05:32,800
Speaker 2: no big time all pro guys on the receiving end,

1436
01:05:32,800 --> 01:05:35,360
Speaker 2: but maybe it was Ben Johnson. I've got it all done.

1437
01:05:36,080 --> 01:05:38,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, No, it'd be interesting to see what just looks like.

1438
01:05:38,880 --> 01:05:41,080
Speaker 3: And look, I had people in my comments mentioning, like,

1439
01:05:41,120 --> 01:05:42,960
Speaker 3: how can you put them up there? I think you

1440
01:05:43,000 --> 01:05:46,680
Speaker 3: got to give them credit, between Amara and Saint Brown

1441
01:05:47,160 --> 01:05:49,960
Speaker 3: and Sam Laporter, both of those other Pro Bowl caliber players.

1442
01:05:49,960 --> 01:05:51,480
Speaker 3: You look at the numbers that they've rung up, but

1443
01:05:51,600 --> 01:05:55,360
Speaker 3: they've done in that offense, you can't dispute that. What

1444
01:05:55,440 --> 01:05:58,560
Speaker 3: you worry about is can they continue under John Morton?

1445
01:05:58,600 --> 01:06:00,560
Speaker 3: Can John Moore and continue to draw the things to

1446
01:06:00,600 --> 01:06:02,480
Speaker 3: put them in a position to play to their strips.

1447
01:06:03,120 --> 01:06:05,720
Speaker 4: That's look, that's what we have to wait and see about.

1448
01:06:05,760 --> 01:06:09,480
Speaker 3: But in terms of their talent and their impact, they

1449
01:06:09,480 --> 01:06:11,640
Speaker 3: certainly deserve to be on that list, all right.

1450
01:06:11,720 --> 01:06:14,200
Speaker 2: And I guess one of the teams that you put

1451
01:06:14,280 --> 01:06:15,720
Speaker 2: up there, and I was really surprised you put the

1452
01:06:15,720 --> 01:06:18,800
Speaker 2: Miami Dolphins in there. I know they got Tyreek Hill

1453
01:06:18,840 --> 01:06:21,240
Speaker 2: and they got a jailing waddle, but other than that,

1454
01:06:21,320 --> 01:06:24,600
Speaker 2: I just to it to me, it's just maybe because

1455
01:06:24,600 --> 01:06:26,480
Speaker 2: he hasn't been healthy. I just don't know. I mean,

1456
01:06:27,080 --> 01:06:29,240
Speaker 2: tell me more about this Miami Dolphins thing on why

1457
01:06:29,280 --> 01:06:31,120
Speaker 2: you put them in the top eight of your top eight.

1458
01:06:31,880 --> 01:06:32,560
Speaker 4: Oh, that's funny.

1459
01:06:32,600 --> 01:06:34,479
Speaker 3: It's funny that you mentioned the too a thing because

1460
01:06:34,480 --> 01:06:36,280
Speaker 3: that's the team, Like they were number eight. They were

1461
01:06:36,320 --> 01:06:38,160
Speaker 3: just seem that I really struggled with the most in

1462
01:06:38,240 --> 01:06:40,960
Speaker 3: terms of doing it. But if we're just talking about

1463
01:06:40,960 --> 01:06:43,479
Speaker 3: them independent of the quarterback, how can you not put

1464
01:06:43,560 --> 01:06:46,240
Speaker 3: to I mean, how can you not put tyreek Hill

1465
01:06:46,320 --> 01:06:48,560
Speaker 3: and Jayden Waller and John Newsmith in there? Based on

1466
01:06:48,600 --> 01:06:51,280
Speaker 3: the numbers and their impact. I mean you talk about

1467
01:06:51,360 --> 01:06:54,400
Speaker 3: speechters on a perimeter and Heal and Waddle and then

1468
01:06:54,480 --> 01:06:56,160
Speaker 3: John new Smith has kind of got the found the

1469
01:06:56,240 --> 01:06:59,200
Speaker 3: youth or rediscovered what made him really intriguing when he

1470
01:06:59,240 --> 01:07:02,680
Speaker 3: played at Tennessee. Uh, it all works, and we can

1471
01:07:02,720 --> 01:07:04,600
Speaker 3: say a lot of things about tour, but when Tua

1472
01:07:04,800 --> 01:07:08,560
Speaker 3: is in the lineup, that offense operates differently than when

1473
01:07:08,560 --> 01:07:09,920
Speaker 3: he's not in that lineup. So you got to give

1474
01:07:09,960 --> 01:07:12,760
Speaker 3: him credit for those things. He's kind of a lynchpin

1475
01:07:13,280 --> 01:07:15,360
Speaker 3: uh to the success of that team in that offense.

1476
01:07:16,320 --> 01:07:18,520
Speaker 2: I will tell you this much. If you were have

1477
01:07:18,560 --> 01:07:21,720
Speaker 2: asked me several years ago who was going to retire

1478
01:07:21,800 --> 01:07:24,640
Speaker 2: first in the NFL, Derek Carr or Tua. I would

1479
01:07:24,640 --> 01:07:26,960
Speaker 2: have said Tua, especially when he got knocked out that

1480
01:07:27,080 --> 01:07:29,200
Speaker 2: he started taking jiu jitsu, I guess to be a

1481
01:07:29,240 --> 01:07:31,680
Speaker 2: little more I mean flexible, whatever it may be. But

1482
01:07:31,800 --> 01:07:34,280
Speaker 2: I thought two was gonna be on the shelf. I

1483
01:07:34,320 --> 01:07:36,840
Speaker 2: really did. I'm really surprised it was Derek Carr before Tua.

1484
01:07:36,880 --> 01:07:37,440
Speaker 2: What about you?

1485
01:07:38,480 --> 01:07:38,680
Speaker 4: Uh?

1486
01:07:38,800 --> 01:07:42,640
Speaker 3: You know, injuries affect people differently, and I will say that.

1487
01:07:43,280 --> 01:07:47,360
Speaker 3: You know, with Tua two, it was doggedly determined that

1488
01:07:47,440 --> 01:07:49,320
Speaker 3: he was gonna play and that he wanted to play.

1489
01:07:49,360 --> 01:07:52,520
Speaker 4: He took all the precartions in those things, uh to

1490
01:07:52,600 --> 01:07:55,800
Speaker 4: do it. Derek Carr is a little older Derek Carr.

1491
01:07:56,080 --> 01:08:00,320
Speaker 3: I mean, obviously he's made significant money in this league

1492
01:08:00,360 --> 01:08:02,680
Speaker 3: as a quarterback, and he just felt like the timing

1493
01:08:02,880 --> 01:08:06,520
Speaker 3: was right for him. That decision is tough because everyone

1494
01:08:06,680 --> 01:08:08,800
Speaker 3: has to figure out what's really really important to them

1495
01:08:08,800 --> 01:08:11,600
Speaker 3: when it comes down to playing the game and win.

1496
01:08:11,640 --> 01:08:13,320
Speaker 4: Its time to like hang him up.

1497
01:08:13,760 --> 01:08:16,880
Speaker 3: And for Derreck Carr, he didn't want to go through

1498
01:08:17,000 --> 01:08:20,960
Speaker 3: the rigorous rehab that was going to be necessary to

1499
01:08:21,000 --> 01:08:22,280
Speaker 3: come back and be the player that he.

1500
01:08:22,240 --> 01:08:22,720
Speaker 4: Wanted to be.

1501
01:08:23,360 --> 01:08:25,120
Speaker 2: I would say this, I think if Derek call was

1502
01:08:25,120 --> 01:08:27,240
Speaker 2: playing on a championship team. He would have come back.

1503
01:08:27,600 --> 01:08:29,000
Speaker 2: I really believe that. I think you play on a

1504
01:08:29,000 --> 01:08:31,479
Speaker 2: team that basically has no chance to even finish five

1505
01:08:31,560 --> 01:08:34,679
Speaker 2: hundred right now, and now they're even worse shape without him.

1506
01:08:35,160 --> 01:08:37,799
Speaker 2: I think that that was a major factor, plus the injury,

1507
01:08:37,800 --> 01:08:39,479
Speaker 2: of course, but they said, you know, why do it?

1508
01:08:39,560 --> 01:08:41,240
Speaker 2: Screw it, I'm going to pack it in. We have

1509
01:08:41,280 --> 01:08:43,519
Speaker 2: no chance of doing it anyway. I don't need the money.

1510
01:08:43,640 --> 01:08:44,400
Speaker 2: I don't want the money.

1511
01:08:44,840 --> 01:08:47,439
Speaker 3: Oh well no, no, no, nold on know he.

1512
01:08:47,360 --> 01:08:50,040
Speaker 4: Took some money. Now, he took. He took.

1513
01:08:50,080 --> 01:08:52,320
Speaker 3: He took ten million dollars. They worked at a settlement.

1514
01:08:52,439 --> 01:08:55,000
Speaker 3: They worked at a settlement, and he took the money

1515
01:08:55,040 --> 01:08:58,080
Speaker 3: before he got about debate. But yeah, he very easily

1516
01:08:58,200 --> 01:09:01,679
Speaker 3: could have continued to go on and do their things.

1517
01:09:01,720 --> 01:09:04,240
Speaker 3: But look, he felt like he was ready to get on,

1518
01:09:04,320 --> 01:09:06,599
Speaker 3: as my college holds would say, his.

1519
01:09:06,439 --> 01:09:09,559
Speaker 4: Life's work, and so he opted out.

1520
01:09:10,400 --> 01:09:13,679
Speaker 3: He's good, and you know, it'd be interesting to see

1521
01:09:13,720 --> 01:09:16,960
Speaker 3: like how he plays this out going forward in terms

1522
01:09:17,000 --> 01:09:20,040
Speaker 3: of like missing the game and all of that, because

1523
01:09:20,080 --> 01:09:23,920
Speaker 3: I would say it's still a very abrupt retirement. But

1524
01:09:24,000 --> 01:09:29,320
Speaker 3: he prioritized his health over everything, and that matters and

1525
01:09:29,360 --> 01:09:31,799
Speaker 3: that matters to people, and so he made a decision

1526
01:09:31,840 --> 01:09:32,639
Speaker 3: that was best for him.

1527
01:09:33,120 --> 01:09:35,080
Speaker 2: All right, And this is the eighth team. And if

1528
01:09:35,080 --> 01:09:37,160
Speaker 2: anybody wants to know the order of which Bucket Brooks

1529
01:09:37,200 --> 01:09:38,600
Speaker 2: put them in, I'm not going to tell you that.

1530
01:09:38,600 --> 01:09:40,920
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna waste your time. Go to NFL dot com,

1531
01:09:41,080 --> 01:09:44,360
Speaker 2: click on the writer's NFL riters, see Bucket Brooks's beautiful picture,

1532
01:09:44,560 --> 01:09:46,120
Speaker 2: and he'll give you the top eight. Now you had

1533
01:09:46,120 --> 01:09:49,400
Speaker 2: the eighth team that you had what is Dallas Cowboys.

1534
01:09:49,439 --> 01:09:51,720
Speaker 2: I guess George Pickens made the deal. I mean that

1535
01:09:51,840 --> 01:09:54,240
Speaker 2: was the clincher right there, because they had only Cdee Lamb,

1536
01:09:54,400 --> 01:09:56,439
Speaker 2: who was a fourth time pro bowler. Now they got

1537
01:09:56,439 --> 01:09:58,559
Speaker 2: George Pickens to kind of take a little pressure off cd.

1538
01:09:58,840 --> 01:10:00,560
Speaker 2: So now you got the Dallas Cowb up there in

1539
01:10:00,600 --> 01:10:03,080
Speaker 2: the top offense. We'll see what that Prescott could do

1540
01:10:03,160 --> 01:10:05,040
Speaker 2: with two quality receivers.

1541
01:10:05,080 --> 01:10:09,479
Speaker 3: Now, yeah, no that This would be fun to see

1542
01:10:09,479 --> 01:10:12,439
Speaker 3: what he's able to do with two quality receivers. And

1543
01:10:12,479 --> 01:10:15,639
Speaker 3: there I would say they're complementary in terms of their games.

1544
01:10:16,080 --> 01:10:19,719
Speaker 3: Pickens will handle all the big play stuff. Ceedee Lamb

1545
01:10:19,760 --> 01:10:21,479
Speaker 3: will be the guy that can do all the dirty

1546
01:10:21,520 --> 01:10:25,160
Speaker 3: work over the middle, and they'll kind of see how

1547
01:10:25,160 --> 01:10:28,919
Speaker 3: they can operate. But I love the potential. It changes

1548
01:10:28,960 --> 01:10:30,840
Speaker 3: a little bit in terms of how I see their

1549
01:10:30,840 --> 01:10:33,519
Speaker 3: offense going. Before Pickens, I thought this was gonna be

1550
01:10:33,560 --> 01:10:37,280
Speaker 3: kind of ground and pound Brian Schottenheimer stealing pages from

1551
01:10:37,320 --> 01:10:40,400
Speaker 3: his dad's playbook Marty Ball. But now this may be

1552
01:10:40,439 --> 01:10:43,040
Speaker 3: a little more balanced, a little more diverse, a little

1553
01:10:43,040 --> 01:10:47,360
Speaker 3: more explosive offense that I was anticipating in Dallas as

1554
01:10:47,400 --> 01:10:48,760
Speaker 3: opposed to what I thought it.

1555
01:10:48,680 --> 01:10:49,280
Speaker 4: Was going to be.

1556
01:10:49,760 --> 01:10:52,000
Speaker 2: All Right, now got a little bit of fun because

1557
01:10:52,040 --> 01:10:54,519
Speaker 2: I said coming into this segment that now we know

1558
01:10:54,560 --> 01:10:58,120
Speaker 2: why they're called fans. Right. We talked about your guy

1559
01:10:58,200 --> 01:10:59,920
Speaker 2: and Mike I love him a should do or Sanders

1560
01:11:00,040 --> 01:11:02,200
Speaker 2: love his daddy, Dion. And I hope this well in

1561
01:11:02,240 --> 01:11:04,840
Speaker 2: the NFL. I really do. But a football fan is

1562
01:11:04,960 --> 01:11:09,080
Speaker 2: suing the NFL for one hundred million dollars over quote,

1563
01:11:09,320 --> 01:11:14,000
Speaker 2: severe emotional distress and trauma that he suffered when the

1564
01:11:14,040 --> 01:11:18,000
Speaker 2: former Colorado University quarterback Shud stand This unexpectedly dropped to

1565
01:11:18,040 --> 01:11:20,280
Speaker 2: the fifth round of last month's draft. All Right in

1566
01:11:20,400 --> 01:11:22,439
Speaker 2: a lawsuit filed on the first of May in the

1567
01:11:22,520 --> 01:11:26,000
Speaker 2: US District Court for the Northern District of Georgia. Buffalo's

1568
01:11:26,000 --> 01:11:30,040
Speaker 2: fan Eric Jackson alleged the NFL had violated the Sherman

1569
01:11:30,160 --> 01:11:34,719
Speaker 2: Anti Trust Act for collusion and possibly violated the Civil

1570
01:11:34,840 --> 01:11:38,679
Speaker 2: Rights Act for race discrimination, as well as consumer protection

1571
01:11:38,840 --> 01:11:43,000
Speaker 2: laws for misrepresenting the nature of the drafting process and

1572
01:11:43,040 --> 01:11:45,920
Speaker 2: the qualifications of players. This guy's out of his mind,

1573
01:11:45,920 --> 01:11:48,920
Speaker 2: but he's a crazy fan and he's never going to

1574
01:11:48,960 --> 01:11:50,400
Speaker 2: get it's going to be thrown out of court. Not

1575
01:11:50,479 --> 01:11:52,160
Speaker 2: that about that. But he got what he wanted. He

1576
01:11:52,240 --> 01:11:54,880
Speaker 2: got some attention, That's what he did. But the point

1577
01:11:54,920 --> 01:11:58,360
Speaker 2: is this, why suit the NFL. He suited the various

1578
01:11:58,400 --> 01:12:01,240
Speaker 2: teams that passed them by, But why suit it all

1579
01:12:01,400 --> 01:12:04,080
Speaker 2: a hundred million dollars? I don't get it. But that's

1580
01:12:04,120 --> 01:12:06,960
Speaker 2: what your Door Sanders has created in the National Football

1581
01:12:07,360 --> 01:12:10,400
Speaker 2: I gotta believe behind closed doors, the league loves it

1582
01:12:10,479 --> 01:12:12,800
Speaker 2: because people are talking about the league. Again, do I

1583
01:12:12,800 --> 01:12:14,880
Speaker 2: talk about the NBA playoffs as much as they're talking

1584
01:12:14,880 --> 01:12:15,919
Speaker 2: about your Door Sanders.

1585
01:12:16,800 --> 01:12:19,759
Speaker 3: I mean they're always we're going to talk about Sudner Sanders.

1586
01:12:19,760 --> 01:12:22,679
Speaker 3: But yeah, the attention, Like we talked about the attention,

1587
01:12:22,840 --> 01:12:26,760
Speaker 3: the intrigue, how all attention is good attention when it

1588
01:12:26,760 --> 01:12:29,400
Speaker 3: comes to the league. Yeah, I mean it's another good thing.

1589
01:12:29,960 --> 01:12:30,679
Speaker 3: It's all good.

1590
01:12:32,200 --> 01:12:36,080
Speaker 2: It's crazy and uh, the NFL didn't respond to the

1591
01:12:36,120 --> 01:12:39,240
Speaker 2: request for a comment. Uh asked that the league had

1592
01:12:39,240 --> 01:12:43,120
Speaker 2: any reason to be concerned over the lawsuit, USC professor

1593
01:12:43,160 --> 01:12:46,880
Speaker 2: of law clear Story told The New York Times, no,

1594
01:12:47,160 --> 01:12:49,400
Speaker 2: they should be concerned at all. She said the NFL's

1595
01:12:49,479 --> 01:12:53,240
Speaker 2: layers would likely file emotion to dismiss the lawsuit for

1596
01:12:53,400 --> 01:12:56,200
Speaker 2: failure to sustain a claim, and that would likely be

1597
01:12:56,280 --> 01:12:59,480
Speaker 2: the end of the matter. However, I know it's ridiculous

1598
01:12:59,479 --> 01:13:01,760
Speaker 2: in any way, but that's what people want to do.

1599
01:13:01,960 --> 01:13:06,120
Speaker 2: I don't see people suing Major League Baseball and their players.

1600
01:13:06,240 --> 01:13:08,880
Speaker 2: I don't see who sue in the NFL. It's the NBA.

1601
01:13:08,960 --> 01:13:12,080
Speaker 2: It's all about the NFL. The league is so popular,

1602
01:13:12,520 --> 01:13:15,400
Speaker 2: fans take it to the next level. That's what they do.

1603
01:13:15,720 --> 01:13:18,479
Speaker 2: I mean, it's crazy, I know, but that's what they do.

1604
01:13:19,439 --> 01:13:22,799
Speaker 4: Yeah, they certainly do that. They just can't.

1605
01:13:22,600 --> 01:13:25,080
Speaker 3: Get enough of it. Can I get enough of it?

1606
01:13:25,120 --> 01:13:27,679
Speaker 3: They love it. It's one of those things that will

1607
01:13:27,720 --> 01:13:30,360
Speaker 3: continue to talk about, like, yeah, they just they just

1608
01:13:30,479 --> 01:13:30,800
Speaker 3: love it.

1609
01:13:30,840 --> 01:13:31,000
Speaker 7: Man.

1610
01:13:31,040 --> 01:13:33,000
Speaker 4: It's just it's just one of those things.

1611
01:13:32,680 --> 01:13:37,160
Speaker 3: That it's just funny to see how it plays out.

1612
01:13:37,200 --> 01:13:40,720
Speaker 2: But yes, it's sick. I mean it's funny because like

1613
01:13:41,120 --> 01:13:43,000
Speaker 2: you go to an NFL game and if you don't

1614
01:13:43,040 --> 01:13:44,960
Speaker 2: sit in the in the press box, you're sitting in

1615
01:13:44,960 --> 01:13:48,280
Speaker 2: the stands. You can't sit. They stand the entire game. Why,

1616
01:13:48,320 --> 01:13:50,439
Speaker 2: I don't know. I turned the game on last night.

1617
01:13:50,479 --> 01:13:54,080
Speaker 2: I'm watching Golden State play and they're playing that game

1618
01:13:54,200 --> 01:13:58,160
Speaker 2: in San Francisco. To me, maybe I'm crazy. It seemed

1619
01:13:58,160 --> 01:13:59,840
Speaker 2: to me there were a lot of empty seats there.

1620
01:14:00,320 --> 01:14:02,519
Speaker 2: Maybe it was the timing. I don't know, because it

1621
01:14:02,600 --> 01:14:04,519
Speaker 2: was eight thirty East and so it's five thirty in

1622
01:14:04,560 --> 01:14:07,200
Speaker 2: San Francisco. Maybe that's a bad time. I don't know.

1623
01:14:07,720 --> 01:14:09,840
Speaker 2: But they could play the NFL and they have. They

1624
01:14:09,920 --> 01:14:12,479
Speaker 2: played it on Wednesday nights during COVID and it was

1625
01:14:12,520 --> 01:14:15,639
Speaker 2: sold out they did, So there's something missing there.

1626
01:14:16,400 --> 01:14:18,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's just a more popular game, Like I'm just

1627
01:14:18,600 --> 01:14:20,519
Speaker 3: gonna be honest with you, Just a more popular game.

1628
01:14:20,600 --> 01:14:22,240
Speaker 3: Like that's what it comes down to. It is a

1629
01:14:22,360 --> 01:14:27,800
Speaker 3: more popular game. To to wise to be around the

1630
01:14:27,920 --> 01:14:30,640
Speaker 3: NFL is king. This is different, I believe. Look, I

1631
01:14:30,680 --> 01:14:34,120
Speaker 3: don't think there's anything wrong with NBA basketball, particularly this

1632
01:14:34,280 --> 01:14:37,519
Speaker 3: version that we're seeing in the postseason. To me, it's

1633
01:14:37,600 --> 01:14:39,960
Speaker 3: just a love affair and the fascination that people have

1634
01:14:40,080 --> 01:14:42,360
Speaker 3: with the NFL that really makes it hard.

1635
01:14:42,400 --> 01:14:44,840
Speaker 4: It can be when them when it comes to the ratings.

1636
01:14:44,640 --> 01:14:47,480

Speaker 7: So here's what we got. Number one, So show hey,

1655
01:15:44,320 --> 01:15:48,760
Speaker 7: Otani could have pursued a fifteen year contract them yes right,

1656
01:15:48,840 --> 01:15:54,519
Speaker 7: I know, right through age forty four. But Superstar apparently

1657
01:15:54,520 --> 01:15:56,920
Speaker 7: didn't want to risk a decline in skills while under

1658
01:15:56,960 --> 01:15:57,519
Speaker 7: the big deal.

1659
01:15:57,800 --> 01:16:02,439
Speaker 1: Yay your nay, Andy firm, Nay. He's full of it.

1660
01:16:02,720 --> 01:16:04,960
Speaker 2: He's full of it. Who's gonna turn out a fifteen

1661
01:16:05,040 --> 01:16:08,599
Speaker 2: year deal for what? How much money was that? Millions? Millions?

1662
01:16:08,600 --> 01:16:10,400
Speaker 2: You're gonna turn it that way? Who worries about their

1663
01:16:10,439 --> 01:16:13,040
Speaker 2: skill level? They worry about the money. He's a liar.

1664
01:16:13,360 --> 01:16:16,200
Speaker 2: He is a liar. Believe me. I don't believe that.

1665
01:16:16,200 --> 01:16:18,360
Speaker 2: That's just agent trying to make the Dodgers look bad.

1666
01:16:19,960 --> 01:16:22,200
Speaker 3: I mean, look, I think he's a team guy. He

1667
01:16:22,280 --> 01:16:24,280
Speaker 3: understands what it is. He has all the power in

1668
01:16:24,280 --> 01:16:27,360
Speaker 3: the currency. Like I'm a Dodgers fans, I appreciated like

1669
01:16:27,400 --> 01:16:29,800
Speaker 3: all that deferred money and all that other stuff like that.

1670
01:16:30,080 --> 01:16:32,080
Speaker 3: He just wants to win the team. He just wants

1671
01:16:32,080 --> 01:16:34,639
Speaker 3: the team to win. Look, you saw show Hey give

Speaker 4: Team guy.

1674
01:16:36,880 --> 01:16:38,640
Speaker 2: I like him, the team guy. You know what, he

1675
01:16:38,800 --> 01:16:41,800
Speaker 2: used that money to gamble it away anyway.

1676
01:16:42,280 --> 01:16:45,880
Speaker 7: Well, speaking of a team guy, sping of a team

01:16:50,760 --> 01:16:54,559
Speaker 7: let's go. But we're also going back to team sports here.

1680
01:16:54,560 --> 01:16:56,439
Speaker 7: So in the NBA Playoffs, as we all know, so

1681
01:16:56,560 --> 01:17:00,600
Speaker 7: Game two was Boston and versus New York. As we

1682
01:17:00,640 --> 01:17:04,679
Speaker 7: all know, Boston lost. The Celtics lost while shooting forty

1683
01:17:04,720 --> 01:17:08,080
Speaker 7: five threes. Yeay or nay on that Bucky Brooks.

1684
01:17:09,520 --> 01:17:09,760
Speaker 3: Yay.

1685
01:17:10,000 --> 01:17:12,320
Speaker 4: This is what they do. They're committed to the plan.

1686
01:17:12,439 --> 01:17:15,160
Speaker 3: I appreciate them sticking to the playing good, better and different.

1687
01:17:15,200 --> 01:17:17,040
Speaker 3: If you're a believer in the philosophy and a play

1688
01:17:17,080 --> 01:17:18,360
Speaker 3: and you stick to it, you don't change.

1689
01:17:19,200 --> 01:17:22,120
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go nay. As much as I love watching

1690
01:17:22,160 --> 01:17:24,880
Speaker 2: the Celtics, yes, I'm going they because I think that's

1691
01:17:24,880 --> 01:17:27,880
Speaker 2: not basketball. They really just just chucking the bull up. Yeah,

1692
01:17:28,000 --> 01:17:29,840
Speaker 2: it's the philosophy, it's the way they play, and they

1693
01:17:29,880 --> 01:17:31,439
Speaker 2: got the guys that do it. But you know what,

1694
01:17:31,479 --> 01:17:33,800
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go back and check the records this week.

1695
01:17:33,880 --> 01:17:35,840
Speaker 2: I'm gonna check the record. But way back in the

1696
01:17:35,920 --> 01:17:39,240
Speaker 2: late sixties, when they had the American Basketball Association the ABA,

1697
01:17:39,479 --> 01:17:41,920
Speaker 2: which really and truly invented the three. I want to

1698
01:17:41,920 --> 01:17:44,960
Speaker 2: see if any teams in the ABA shot forty five

1699
01:17:45,000 --> 01:17:46,880
Speaker 2: threes in one game. I don't think.

1700
01:17:46,920 --> 01:17:46,960
Speaker 3: So.

1701
01:17:47,640 --> 01:17:48,800
Speaker 4: It's a different time.

1702
01:17:49,640 --> 01:17:51,920
Speaker 2: What do you mean, it's the game of basketball.

1703
01:17:52,400 --> 01:17:55,680
Speaker 3: It's a different time. I guess that Bob Coosey and

1704
01:17:55,720 --> 01:17:57,280
Speaker 3: those guys, if they played with the three.

1705
01:17:57,120 --> 01:18:01,960
Speaker 2: They all back lost just a fifties. If I talk

1706
01:18:02,040 --> 01:18:05,600
Speaker 2: about the ABA, would Roger Brown played and Doctor j

1707
01:18:06,040 --> 01:18:08,400
Speaker 2: they had the three back ten and then then checking

1708
01:18:08,479 --> 01:18:11,599
Speaker 2: up forty three threes? Oh man?

1709
01:18:11,760 --> 01:18:13,679
Speaker 1: All right, well next on here, guys.

1710
01:18:13,720 --> 01:18:16,400
Speaker 7: So the FCS teams would be allowed to play twelve

1711
01:18:16,439 --> 01:18:20,479
Speaker 7: regular season games every year under a D one Football

1712
01:18:20,600 --> 01:18:23,960
Speaker 7: Championship Subdivision Oversight Committee recommendation.

1713
01:18:24,520 --> 01:18:25,439
Speaker 1: The one game.

1714
01:18:25,240 --> 01:18:28,240
Speaker 7: Extension would go into effect in twenty twenty six if

1715
01:18:28,280 --> 01:18:32,000
Speaker 7: the D one Council gives its approval during its June

1716
01:18:32,040 --> 01:18:34,240
Speaker 7: twenty fourth to twenty fifth meeting.

1717
01:18:34,800 --> 01:18:35,559
Speaker 1: Yay or nay?

1718
01:18:35,720 --> 01:18:38,240
Speaker 2: Andy Furman, I give that a yay, And I'll tell

1719
01:18:38,240 --> 01:18:41,120
Speaker 2: you why. These kids that play FCS football, they're no

1720
01:18:41,200 --> 01:18:43,920
Speaker 2: different than anybody else playing either junior college football or

1721
01:18:43,960 --> 01:18:46,599
Speaker 2: big time football in college whatever. Maybe why should they

1722
01:18:46,640 --> 01:18:49,320
Speaker 2: be excluded? Why shouldn't they play twelve games? Why shouldn't

1723
01:18:49,240 --> 01:18:51,120
Speaker 2: they play as many as anybody else? So I give

1724
01:18:51,160 --> 01:18:53,080
Speaker 2: them a yay. Let him play, play as much as

1725
01:18:53,120 --> 01:18:55,519
Speaker 2: you can stay out of the classroom. The more you played,

1726
01:18:55,560 --> 01:18:56,599
Speaker 2: the less you have to study.

1727
01:18:57,320 --> 01:18:59,080
Speaker 3: I mean, so we're gonna we're gonna play all these

1728
01:18:59,120 --> 01:19:00,880
Speaker 3: games and then play in the playoffs and do all

1729
01:19:00,880 --> 01:19:01,479
Speaker 3: this other stuff.

1730
01:19:01,479 --> 01:19:02,200
Speaker 2: So what are we doing?

1731
01:19:02,840 --> 01:19:03,960
Speaker 4: Play too many games?

1732
01:19:04,120 --> 01:19:05,839
Speaker 3: Like they have the playoffs, which is different.

1733
01:19:07,880 --> 01:19:09,880
Speaker 2: Come on, you giving it an a. You're giving it

1734
01:19:09,920 --> 01:19:10,680
Speaker 2: an a.

1735
01:19:11,360 --> 01:19:15,280
Speaker 1: Well, here's here's one. I'm gonna give a yay for guys.

1736
01:19:15,439 --> 01:19:15,880
Speaker 1: Last one.

1737
01:19:16,000 --> 01:19:19,720
Speaker 7: So Major League Baseball has added multi colored gloves. Yeah

1738
01:19:19,720 --> 01:19:21,719
Speaker 7: your nay, Bucky Brooks, because I'm yay.

1739
01:19:22,280 --> 01:19:24,479
Speaker 3: Yay, Come on, man, multi color gloves. The only thing

1740
01:19:24,479 --> 01:19:26,680
Speaker 3: that I would ask is just do the multi colors? Like,

1741
01:19:26,880 --> 01:19:29,000
Speaker 3: can we do them in team uniform? I just don't

1742
01:19:29,000 --> 01:19:30,640
Speaker 3: like to see the weird colors. But yeah, I like

1743
01:19:30,640 --> 01:19:32,280
Speaker 3: the multi colors have a little bizazz.

1744
01:19:33,439 --> 01:19:35,080
Speaker 2: Yeah I give that a. Yeah, I like it. You

1745
01:19:35,120 --> 01:19:37,320
Speaker 2: know why I picked us this way? You can't you

1746
01:19:37,360 --> 01:19:40,000
Speaker 2: can't be mistaken as to which glove is yours. You

1747
01:19:40,000 --> 01:19:42,439
Speaker 2: know what I'm saying. You think doing the half anying

1748
01:19:42,439 --> 01:19:44,280
Speaker 2: when you put the glove down, the dugout. You know,

1749
01:19:44,520 --> 01:19:46,479
Speaker 2: I'm the blue yore, the yellow yoa green, so you

1750
01:19:46,520 --> 01:19:47,880
Speaker 2: know which is your glove. I like it.

1751
01:19:48,960 --> 01:19:51,040
Speaker 3: I'm actually surprised that you would like it. I thought

1752
01:19:51,040 --> 01:19:54,280
Speaker 3: you would be a traditionalist. I am. That is the

1753
01:19:54,320 --> 01:19:57,040
Speaker 3: biggest surprise for me. I thought that you would be

1754
01:19:57,080 --> 01:19:59,240
Speaker 3: a brown glove. Only guys get into that. We'll get

1755
01:19:59,280 --> 01:20:00,920
Speaker 3: into that when we could take you. Hey, number three,

1756
01:20:01,160 --> 01:20:01,559
Speaker 3: there's a.

1757
01:20:01,520 --> 01:20:05,120
Speaker 2: New number one on Fox Sports Sunday coming up right

1758
01:20:05,120 --> 01:20:12,479
Speaker 2: here next all right, the top running back maybe on

1759
01:20:12,560 --> 01:20:15,479
Speaker 2: the move, that's coming right up. Good morning, everybody. This

1760
01:20:15,720 --> 01:20:18,599
Speaker 2: is Fox Sports Sunday and Fox Sports Radio. He's Bucky

1761
01:20:18,600 --> 01:20:20,439
Speaker 2: Broke and Andy Ferman. And by the way, we're live

1762
01:20:20,840 --> 01:20:23,400
Speaker 2: from the Fox Sports Radio studios. And I want to

1763
01:20:23,439 --> 01:20:25,759
Speaker 2: get back to that little thing that we're talk about

1764
01:20:25,920 --> 01:20:28,720
Speaker 2: on yay or ay with the Major League Baseballs ending

1765
01:20:28,760 --> 01:20:31,280
Speaker 2: the multi colored gloves. And you were very surprised that

1766
01:20:31,320 --> 01:20:33,679
Speaker 2: I said yeh, because she said I'm a traditionalist. I

1767
01:20:33,720 --> 01:20:38,000
Speaker 2: think there's a difference between being a traditionalist and being

1768
01:20:38,040 --> 01:20:42,200
Speaker 2: common sense. All Right, A traditionalist yet I wasn't really

1769
01:20:42,200 --> 01:20:45,599
Speaker 2: a big fan of the increased base size. I really wasn't.

1770
01:20:45,720 --> 01:20:47,519
Speaker 2: I wasn't a big fan when they went to extra

1771
01:20:47,520 --> 01:20:49,639
Speaker 2: innings and put a runner on second base. I think

1772
01:20:49,640 --> 01:20:51,760
Speaker 2: that's ridiculous. I wasn't a big fan of that because

1773
01:20:51,760 --> 01:20:54,559
Speaker 2: I am a traditionalist. The pitchclock, I could live and

1774
01:20:54,600 --> 01:20:57,200
Speaker 2: die with the pitchclock. Not a big deal because I'd rather,

1775
01:20:57,360 --> 01:20:59,320
Speaker 2: you know, go home after two and a half hours

1776
01:20:59,360 --> 01:21:00,800
Speaker 2: than stay a bit. They spoke game of three and

1777
01:21:00,800 --> 01:21:03,479
Speaker 2: a half hours. But the gloves, that's great. You know,

1778
01:21:03,600 --> 01:21:06,000
Speaker 2: kids will love that. They're gonna sell gloves. They want

1779
01:21:06,000 --> 01:21:08,080
Speaker 2: to see that. It's just something different and it adds

1780
01:21:08,439 --> 01:21:11,240
Speaker 2: a different sparkle, so to speak, to the game of baseball.

1781
01:21:11,400 --> 01:21:13,479
Speaker 2: So yeah, I could be a traditionalist, but I think

1782
01:21:13,560 --> 01:21:15,080
Speaker 2: I do have a little common sense there.

1783
01:21:15,000 --> 01:21:19,080
Speaker 3: Buck, Okay. I just I just assumed that you would

1784
01:21:19,120 --> 01:21:22,840
Speaker 3: be a guy that you know coming. I would assume

1785
01:21:22,880 --> 01:21:26,000
Speaker 3: that you're a Cincinnati Reds fan, because you all think Cincinnati.

1786
01:21:26,400 --> 01:21:29,120
Speaker 3: I just thought that you would be a no facial hair,

1787
01:21:29,240 --> 01:21:34,160
Speaker 3: We're gonna wear black shoes, white laces. We're gonna have

1788
01:21:34,240 --> 01:21:39,360
Speaker 3: brown gloves, no no friels, no fancy stuff. Everyone looks

1789
01:21:39,400 --> 01:21:42,040
Speaker 3: like a team at all times. I thought they would be.

1790
01:21:42,200 --> 01:21:45,080
Speaker 2: I'll ask you this, I mean, I don't understand why

1791
01:21:45,120 --> 01:21:47,400
Speaker 2: that no facial hair. That was a large shot thing

1792
01:21:47,520 --> 01:21:49,040
Speaker 2: back in the day. And then there are guys in

1793
01:21:49,040 --> 01:21:51,200
Speaker 2: their raide right now that do a facial hair. Think

1794
01:21:51,240 --> 01:21:54,200
Speaker 2: about this. Think about the National Football League in the NBA.

1795
01:21:54,280 --> 01:21:56,080
Speaker 2: I don't think you could pick out, on one hand

1796
01:21:56,160 --> 01:21:59,200
Speaker 2: guys that do not have facial hair. Think about that.

1797
01:22:00,000 --> 01:22:02,080
Speaker 2: That's the big deal about facial here. I don't get it.

1798
01:22:02,360 --> 01:22:04,920
Speaker 2: Why Why did baseball teams and the Yankees had it

1799
01:22:04,960 --> 01:22:07,800
Speaker 2: for a while too. Why did baseball teams say you

1800
01:22:07,840 --> 01:22:10,120
Speaker 2: can't have facial hair? What what's the problem with that?

1801
01:22:10,760 --> 01:22:13,600
Speaker 3: They wanted to clean looks, man, No, they wanted to

1802
01:22:13,640 --> 01:22:15,640
Speaker 3: clean look. Wanted to have one to make sure that

1803
01:22:15,720 --> 01:22:18,400
Speaker 3: you look professional. You know, there was a time there

1804
01:22:18,479 --> 01:22:20,800
Speaker 3: that we talked about like being clean shaven. That was

1805
01:22:20,880 --> 01:22:24,160
Speaker 3: the professional look. So the Yankees went away from it.

1806
01:22:24,160 --> 01:22:25,800
Speaker 3: I will say this, I'm a little disappointed that the

1807
01:22:25,880 --> 01:22:28,040
Speaker 3: Yankees went away. That was something that was tried and true.

1808
01:22:28,040 --> 01:22:30,960
Speaker 3: That was a big part of their I can't even

1809
01:22:31,000 --> 01:22:32,960
Speaker 3: say their stick, but the big part of their culture.

1810
01:22:33,160 --> 01:22:36,360
Speaker 3: They were the professionals, and now they've gone away, they're

1811
01:22:36,439 --> 01:22:37,559
Speaker 3: just like every other team. Now.

1812
01:22:38,280 --> 01:22:41,360
Speaker 2: So are you saying now or of people, say a

1813
01:22:41,439 --> 01:22:44,800
Speaker 2: league saying that because the National Football League and the

1814
01:22:44,920 --> 01:22:47,560
Speaker 2: NBA guys have facial hair, they're not professional.

1815
01:22:48,479 --> 01:22:50,120
Speaker 4: I mean no, I'm just saying like that was.

1816
01:22:50,400 --> 01:22:50,720
Speaker 7: That was.

1817
01:22:50,800 --> 01:22:53,040
Speaker 3: That was, that was, that was, that was the thought

1818
01:22:53,479 --> 01:22:56,640
Speaker 3: behind why those teams would would do it. I'm not

1819
01:22:56,680 --> 01:22:59,640
Speaker 3: saying one way or the other, but that was. That

1820
01:22:59,720 --> 01:23:02,960
Speaker 3: was the way they operated. And I thought you, being

1821
01:23:03,479 --> 01:23:06,720
Speaker 3: a huge Reds fan but also being one that is

1822
01:23:06,760 --> 01:23:09,760
Speaker 3: a little more traditional and since I thought you would

1823
01:23:09,760 --> 01:23:12,920
Speaker 3: be a brown glove only guy, that hey, we're not deviating.

1824
01:23:13,360 --> 01:23:14,080
Speaker 4: This is work.

1825
01:23:14,280 --> 01:23:18,080
Speaker 3: This is what Pete Rose did, Joe Morgan, all these

1826
01:23:18,120 --> 01:23:19,639
Speaker 3: guys like, this is what they did.

1827
01:23:20,080 --> 01:23:22,080
Speaker 4: We're gonna look like the big Red machine and it's

1828
01:23:22,120 --> 01:23:22,799
Speaker 4: never changing.

1829
01:23:24,240 --> 01:23:28,160
Speaker 2: I just, you know, that's one thing that I never understood.

1830
01:23:28,240 --> 01:23:31,320
Speaker 2: And honestly, like if a guy has a beard or

1831
01:23:31,320 --> 01:23:34,680
Speaker 2: a mustache, whoever it may be, doesn't bother me. I mean,

1832
01:23:35,240 --> 01:23:37,639
Speaker 2: I mean, I couldn't picture Bill Russell without a kot

1833
01:23:38,320 --> 01:23:40,280
Speaker 2: think about it. I mean, I just I could, or

1834
01:23:40,320 --> 01:23:43,439
Speaker 2: Will Chamberlain or Lebrama out of beard. I mean, it's

1835
01:23:43,479 --> 01:23:45,800
Speaker 2: just it's part of the ghettup because of makeup. I mean,

1836
01:23:46,560 --> 01:23:49,000
Speaker 2: do I like them any less or anymore? No, that's

1837
01:23:49,040 --> 01:23:51,840
Speaker 2: the way they are. I mean, really, it's crazy when

1838
01:23:51,880 --> 01:23:52,639
Speaker 2: you think about.

1839
01:23:52,439 --> 01:23:55,000
Speaker 4: It, it is crazy.

1840
01:23:55,280 --> 01:23:58,599
Speaker 3: I mean, I get it. I'm with you, I'm with you.

1841
01:23:58,600 --> 01:24:02,040
Speaker 2: No, here's a question. Have you seen an NFL quarterback

1842
01:24:02,080 --> 01:24:04,559
Speaker 2: with facial hair? I'm trying to think if there is one.

1843
01:24:04,720 --> 01:24:09,400
Speaker 2: Is there one NFL quarterback with facial hair. I'm trying

1844
01:24:09,439 --> 01:24:14,320
Speaker 2: to think maybe like Matthew Stafford facial hair.

1845
01:24:14,920 --> 01:24:18,040
Speaker 3: No, maybe like little mus mustaches and stuff like that,

1846
01:24:18,080 --> 01:24:22,120
Speaker 3: But I can't remember anything being read out like little

1847
01:24:22,120 --> 01:24:26,479
Speaker 3: Goate's uh. Jaydaen Hurt says a little mustache and goateee.

1848
01:24:26,520 --> 01:24:33,200
Speaker 3: I think Jade Daniels has dad uh in.

1849
01:24:33,240 --> 01:24:38,400
Speaker 2: The day also, really, now, is that something that teams

1850
01:24:38,560 --> 01:24:41,439
Speaker 2: request these guys? You represent us, you're the face of

1851
01:24:41,439 --> 01:24:43,880
Speaker 2: the team. We don't want you to have facial hair.

1852
01:24:43,960 --> 01:24:44,400
Speaker 2: Is that it?

1853
01:24:44,680 --> 01:24:46,479
Speaker 3: No, that's never been a no, no, no, that's never

1854
01:24:46,520 --> 01:24:48,400
Speaker 3: been a thing. I think the only thing that teams

1855
01:24:48,400 --> 01:24:53,280
Speaker 3: have ever requested is that you have a presidential flair

1856
01:24:53,800 --> 01:24:56,160
Speaker 3: about you, that you are the face of the franchise,

1857
01:24:56,240 --> 01:24:59,280
Speaker 3: you are outside of the owner of the general manager,

1858
01:24:59,320 --> 01:25:02,400
Speaker 3: head coach, like the quarterback is the one who extends

1859
01:25:02,400 --> 01:25:05,000
Speaker 3: that message out to the public. So you all always

1860
01:25:05,000 --> 01:25:07,840
Speaker 3: want him to be presentable when he steps to the

1861
01:25:07,880 --> 01:25:11,960
Speaker 3: podium in those things because the words that he says matter.

1862
01:25:13,080 --> 01:25:16,479
Speaker 2: Mm hmm. Now I'm trying to think of a coach

1863
01:25:16,560 --> 01:25:18,920
Speaker 2: that has facial hair in the National Football League.

1864
01:25:19,600 --> 01:25:19,720
Speaker 7: Hm.

1865
01:25:22,320 --> 01:25:22,840
Speaker 2: You know if.

1866
01:25:24,800 --> 01:25:28,120
Speaker 3: I think Mike Rabel has like a little persistent five

1867
01:25:28,120 --> 01:25:29,320
Speaker 3: o'clock shadow.

1868
01:25:29,080 --> 01:25:30,920
Speaker 1: But Dan Campbell's got to go tea.

1869
01:25:31,680 --> 01:25:35,720
Speaker 7: Yeah, they'll go to Ryan Fitzpatrick was QB that had like,

1870
01:25:35,720 --> 01:25:36,840
Speaker 7: you know, the big beard too.

1871
01:25:37,880 --> 01:25:39,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, but he was a coach of the Chiefs. Has

1872
01:25:39,880 --> 01:25:40,760
Speaker 2: a mustache.

1873
01:25:41,120 --> 01:25:42,000
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah.

1874
01:25:42,040 --> 01:25:45,840
Speaker 4: So they got little stuff, nothing, nothing crazy though I.

1875
01:25:45,760 --> 01:25:48,280
Speaker 2: Never thought of it really, I mean, a good point there.

1876
01:25:48,400 --> 01:25:50,519
Speaker 2: We move on. But let's talk about football for a second.

1877
01:25:50,760 --> 01:25:52,920
Speaker 2: Let's talk about the Cleveland Browns have no less than

1878
01:25:53,000 --> 01:25:56,560
Speaker 2: four quarterbacks on the roster, including the infamous should do

1879
01:25:56,600 --> 01:25:57,920
Speaker 2: or Sanders play? I hope he makes it in the

1880
01:25:58,000 --> 01:26:01,200
Speaker 2: National Football League, I really do. He camp on Friday.

1881
01:26:01,880 --> 01:26:06,280
Speaker 2: The first snap was a third round pick, Dylan Gabriel.

1882
01:26:06,680 --> 01:26:09,480
Speaker 2: How surprised are you with that would why would Stefanski

1883
01:26:09,560 --> 01:26:11,360
Speaker 2: do that? Well here for them of the second why

1884
01:26:11,400 --> 01:26:12,040
Speaker 2: would he do that?

1885
01:26:13,080 --> 01:26:17,880
Speaker 3: Because third rounder is regarded as a higher pick than

1886
01:26:17,880 --> 01:26:20,360
Speaker 3: the fifth rounder, so third rounding gets the first ball.

1887
01:26:20,800 --> 01:26:21,519
Speaker 4: I mean that's that.

1888
01:26:22,040 --> 01:26:25,000
Speaker 3: I assumed that Dylan Gaber would get that. And even

1889
01:26:25,040 --> 01:26:28,640
Speaker 3: though he's been overshadowed by Shooter Sanders, you got to

1890
01:26:28,640 --> 01:26:31,240
Speaker 3: remember third round picks come in. Third round pick is

1891
01:26:31,280 --> 01:26:33,559
Speaker 3: not going to get cut his first year. He's gonna

1892
01:26:33,560 --> 01:26:36,240
Speaker 3: get every opportunity to play. And when you look at

1893
01:26:36,240 --> 01:26:38,679
Speaker 3: Shuotera Sanders man, he's gonna be playing mop up duty

1894
01:26:38,760 --> 01:26:42,400
Speaker 3: in preseason fourth quarter games, playing with guys that are

1895
01:26:42,760 --> 01:26:45,799
Speaker 3: struggling to make the roster behind a bad offensive line.

1896
01:26:46,040 --> 01:26:49,160
Speaker 3: He has an uphill climb. But I would say first

1897
01:26:49,200 --> 01:26:53,559
Speaker 3: impression at Ricky Minnicamp appears to be pretty solid.

1898
01:26:54,880 --> 01:26:59,960
Speaker 2: So they got Deshaun Watson's rehabbing, Joe Flackall, Kenny Pickett,

1899
01:27:00,040 --> 01:27:04,760
Speaker 2: and Gabriel I mean that they he has a lot

1900
01:27:04,800 --> 01:27:07,519
Speaker 2: at the climb to to see some action. Let's see

1901
01:27:07,520 --> 01:27:10,320
Speaker 2: it from just Stefanski, the head coach, and why he

1902
01:27:10,360 --> 01:27:12,240
Speaker 2: did that? Go ahead, Kevin, I want to hear this.

1903
01:27:12,960 --> 01:27:15,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, I wouldn't look at anything. I think you'll see

1904
01:27:15,400 --> 01:27:18,400
Speaker 3: the whole weekend going through the spring. I mean, we

1905
01:27:18,439 --> 01:27:21,040
Speaker 3: don't pay too close attention to who's in their first.

1906
01:27:21,840 --> 01:27:24,320
Speaker 2: Really, a lot of everybody else paid attention to it

1907
01:27:24,320 --> 01:27:27,240
Speaker 2: except you. I mean, really, come on, Like, didn't you

1908
01:27:27,400 --> 01:27:30,040
Speaker 2: realize when you're going to do that? I guess you

1909
01:27:30,120 --> 01:27:32,400
Speaker 2: said that you're not surprised, but because you know you're

1910
01:27:32,400 --> 01:27:35,479
Speaker 2: a football guy. But don't you think Stefanski would have

1911
01:27:35,600 --> 01:27:38,679
Speaker 2: known by doing that he's going to cause a mini

1912
01:27:38,760 --> 01:27:41,599
Speaker 2: riot because everybody wants to see Shador and they weren't

1913
01:27:41,640 --> 01:27:44,120
Speaker 2: know why a third round guy going before a fifth round.

1914
01:27:44,160 --> 01:27:46,439
Speaker 2: But look, that makes sense in the pecking order. But

1915
01:27:46,520 --> 01:27:49,439
Speaker 2: still in all he should have done it quietly. Don't

1916
01:27:49,439 --> 01:27:51,800
Speaker 2: you think he caused a big to do here?

1917
01:27:51,880 --> 01:27:57,960
Speaker 3: Now why everyone that was there practice so who went

1918
01:27:57,960 --> 01:28:01,679
Speaker 3: out first is not Look, man, this is a common thing.

1919
01:28:01,760 --> 01:28:04,559
Speaker 3: So when you have two young quarterbacks competing a day

1920
01:28:04,560 --> 01:28:07,120
Speaker 3: one deal and you go with the ones, shood, you're

1921
01:28:07,080 --> 01:28:09,439
Speaker 3: going with the two's, and then the next day, ay, shoulder,

1922
01:28:09,520 --> 01:28:11,760
Speaker 3: we're gonna flip it. You go with the ones, gab her,

1923
01:28:11,800 --> 01:28:14,320
Speaker 3: you go at the two's. Like everything is scripted. The

1924
01:28:14,360 --> 01:28:16,800
Speaker 3: one thing that I can tell you about NFL practice,

1925
01:28:17,400 --> 01:28:22,840
Speaker 3: every play, every drill, there's a script that you have

1926
01:28:22,880 --> 01:28:25,880
Speaker 3: to run down because those peers are really really short

1927
01:28:25,920 --> 01:28:28,280
Speaker 3: and connence ten minutes, so to be able to do it,

1928
01:28:28,280 --> 01:28:31,719
Speaker 3: you got to go quickly and efficiently. And some guys

1929
01:28:31,760 --> 01:28:35,360
Speaker 3: will say, hey, for the four that the number one

1930
01:28:35,400 --> 01:28:38,360
Speaker 3: group goes, the number twos, you guys get to. The

1931
01:28:38,439 --> 01:28:40,760
Speaker 3: number three is you also will get to. That's why

1932
01:28:40,840 --> 01:28:43,160
Speaker 3: everyone gets reps. It's not the same, but everyone at

1933
01:28:43,280 --> 01:28:46,559
Speaker 3: least has opportunities to get better and master the schemes.

1934
01:28:47,479 --> 01:28:49,600
Speaker 2: I will say this, and I give a lot of

1935
01:28:49,640 --> 01:28:52,479
Speaker 2: credit to you do is saying this because he's been

1936
01:28:52,560 --> 01:28:55,839
Speaker 2: very quiet and very professional. I mean I've read stuff

1937
01:28:55,880 --> 01:28:58,720
Speaker 2: that said that, you know, in his meetings and the

1938
01:28:58,760 --> 01:29:01,280
Speaker 2: one on ones, it was a his ego and the

1939
01:29:01,400 --> 01:29:04,280
Speaker 2: jewelry he wore. I don't believe that because I don't

1940
01:29:04,280 --> 01:29:06,040
Speaker 2: think you could turn around and turn it off like that.

1941
01:29:06,280 --> 01:29:08,280
Speaker 2: He's been nothing more than a gentleman. Even with the

1942
01:29:08,360 --> 01:29:10,800
Speaker 2: number situation, he's going to wear number twelve. He went

1943
01:29:10,840 --> 01:29:13,240
Speaker 2: to number two and they gave him twelve. He's taken.

1944
01:29:13,360 --> 01:29:15,920
Speaker 2: I mean, he's just doing what he's got to do,

1945
01:29:16,439 --> 01:29:19,600
Speaker 2: and hopefully his play will speak for itself. I hope so,

1946
01:29:20,040 --> 01:29:23,160
Speaker 2: because I think that he I think he deserves the chance,

1947
01:29:23,240 --> 01:29:26,000
Speaker 2: don't you think. I mean the numbers he put up

1948
01:29:26,000 --> 01:29:28,959
Speaker 2: in Colorado. No one's talking about that. He had tremendous

1949
01:29:29,040 --> 01:29:32,920
Speaker 2: numbers in Colorado. And I still think it was somewhat

1950
01:29:33,080 --> 01:29:36,360
Speaker 2: of a disgrace, not a mistake, but a disgrace the

1951
01:29:36,400 --> 01:29:38,400
Speaker 2: way he was handled and the way what they did

1952
01:29:38,400 --> 01:29:39,760
Speaker 2: to him in the draft.

1953
01:29:41,200 --> 01:29:43,559
Speaker 4: Look, man, I can't say it was a disgrace.

1954
01:29:43,760 --> 01:29:45,679
Speaker 3: It is what it is. He went to the fifth

1955
01:29:45,760 --> 01:29:48,439
Speaker 3: round because a bunch of teams deemed him not to

1956
01:29:48,479 --> 01:29:51,479
Speaker 3: be worthy of selecting.

1957
01:29:51,439 --> 01:29:53,800
Speaker 2: Because it was played, because they didn't want the circus there.

1958
01:29:53,920 --> 01:29:57,720
Speaker 3: Well, the one thing we don't know is how much

1959
01:29:57,800 --> 01:29:59,439
Speaker 3: of it was his play, how much of it was

1960
01:29:59,479 --> 01:30:02,000
Speaker 3: his circus environment, or whatever the reality is.

1961
01:30:02,080 --> 01:30:03,320
Speaker 4: And we got to deal with reality.

1962
01:30:03,720 --> 01:30:06,479
Speaker 3: And the good thing that I've heard from him is, hey, man,

1963
01:30:06,520 --> 01:30:07,840
Speaker 3: I came in as a fifth round pick.

1964
01:30:07,880 --> 01:30:10,880
Speaker 4: That is what it is, regardless of what I may think.

1965
01:30:11,280 --> 01:30:14,000
Speaker 3: That's what the league said. My only job is to

1966
01:30:14,080 --> 01:30:16,759
Speaker 3: put my best foot forward and control what I can control,

1967
01:30:17,120 --> 01:30:19,519
Speaker 3: and not necessarily to prove the other guy's wrong. But

1968
01:30:19,600 --> 01:30:22,080
Speaker 3: to prove myself right, that's all he can do. And

1969
01:30:22,160 --> 01:30:24,599
Speaker 3: for us, look, man, a lot of people are still

1970
01:30:24,600 --> 01:30:27,439
Speaker 3: stung by their pre draft grades and those things. We

1971
01:30:27,520 --> 01:30:30,439
Speaker 3: will never know if we're right or wrong on our

1972
01:30:30,479 --> 01:30:34,800
Speaker 3: assessments Shooter Sanatas until after his third season. After his

1973
01:30:34,880 --> 01:30:37,880
Speaker 3: third season, we'll be able to say, like, hey, look

1974
01:30:38,600 --> 01:30:40,120
Speaker 3: he was right, I was wrong.

1975
01:30:40,400 --> 01:30:42,720
Speaker 4: He is locked in.

1976
01:30:42,800 --> 01:30:45,880
Speaker 3: He has everything positioned the way that he wants it

1977
01:30:45,920 --> 01:30:48,160
Speaker 3: to go, and it works for him. We'll see. But

1978
01:30:48,240 --> 01:30:50,800
Speaker 3: I will say this in reading the reports from people

1979
01:30:50,800 --> 01:30:53,479
Speaker 3: coming out Cleveland, they said that he's been solid. They've

1980
01:30:53,479 --> 01:30:56,720
Speaker 3: said that he is I'll play the competition there, but

1981
01:30:56,720 --> 01:31:01,920
Speaker 3: it's only Ricky Minichamp and he has a great understanding

1982
01:31:01,960 --> 01:31:06,120
Speaker 3: and knowledge of the offense, like just knows it, understands it.

1983
01:31:06,120 --> 01:31:07,960
Speaker 3: It's working and we're seeing it play out the way

1984
01:31:08,000 --> 01:31:09,479
Speaker 3: he plays well.

1985
01:31:09,520 --> 01:31:12,040
Speaker 2: I'm happy for him in one regard that he's not

1986
01:31:12,200 --> 01:31:14,640
Speaker 2: playing and please don't take this the wrong way if

1987
01:31:14,640 --> 01:31:17,439
Speaker 2: you're listening from Cleveland, but he's not playing in a major,

1988
01:31:17,600 --> 01:31:19,960
Speaker 2: major market. If he was playing in New York, La

1989
01:31:20,040 --> 01:31:23,360
Speaker 2: ch Cargo, Atlanta, it would be unbelievable with the amount

1990
01:31:23,400 --> 01:31:27,799
Speaker 2: of press, there's Cleveland. It's like an A minus market.

1991
01:31:27,840 --> 01:31:30,519
Speaker 2: It's not an A plus market. It's not big, but

1992
01:31:30,520 --> 01:31:31,839
Speaker 2: it's not a major market.

1993
01:31:32,320 --> 01:31:34,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, but I'll say this, as much as we have

1994
01:31:34,200 --> 01:31:37,200
Speaker 3: seen him, look, I think his thing was pinned on

1995
01:31:37,240 --> 01:31:41,800
Speaker 3: the NFL profile. We have never seen more videos of

1996
01:31:41,800 --> 01:31:44,560
Speaker 3: a fifth round pick to date then we've seen a

1997
01:31:44,600 --> 01:31:48,320
Speaker 3: Shuder Sandes. I mean every throw, every warm up, all

1998
01:31:48,400 --> 01:31:50,840
Speaker 3: of his passes and practice are documented and put up

1999
01:31:50,880 --> 01:31:54,880
Speaker 3: on social media platforms. They've done various things where they

2000
01:31:55,000 --> 01:31:58,400
Speaker 3: promoted him, even the controversy over the number and DeAndre

2001
01:31:58,520 --> 01:32:01,200
Speaker 3: Carter elected to wear number two when they asked should

2002
01:32:01,200 --> 01:32:02,680
Speaker 3: do or if he was going to buy and he

2003
01:32:02,760 --> 01:32:05,080
Speaker 3: was like, man, my signing bonus ain't enough where I

2004
01:32:05,080 --> 01:32:08,559
Speaker 3: can go get that like he laughed it off. But yeah,

2005
01:32:08,600 --> 01:32:11,200
Speaker 3: there's no need for him to do it. And let's

2006
01:32:11,240 --> 01:32:14,280
Speaker 3: be real, if you're Shuder Sanders and you're in line

2007
01:32:14,320 --> 01:32:16,840
Speaker 3: to make the team, we don't know if DeAndre Carter

2008
01:32:16,920 --> 01:32:17,920
Speaker 3: is gonna make the team.

2009
01:32:18,080 --> 01:32:19,519
Speaker 4: And so what you do is you.

2010
01:32:19,520 --> 01:32:22,559
Speaker 3: Wait, he gets cut and can I can I work

2011
01:32:22,640 --> 01:32:26,040
Speaker 3: number two? Slide in and take it. So that's that's common.

2012
01:32:26,080 --> 01:32:27,360
Speaker 3: It's not it's not a big videal.

2013
01:32:27,640 --> 01:32:30,880
Speaker 2: Okay, so he you know, let's get this, let's let's

2014
01:32:31,160 --> 01:32:33,639
Speaker 2: kind of scrape off the surface here a little bit.

2015
01:32:34,080 --> 01:32:37,880
Speaker 2: The amount of interest he's been shown on social media

2016
01:32:37,960 --> 01:32:40,720
Speaker 2: and the talk on media in general is not so

2017
01:32:40,880 --> 01:32:43,280
Speaker 2: much because of his skill set. It is because where

2018
01:32:43,320 --> 01:32:45,439
Speaker 2: he was drafted. I don't think it would have been

2019
01:32:45,439 --> 01:32:47,920
Speaker 2: this bad if he was drafted in the first two

2020
01:32:48,000 --> 01:32:49,480
Speaker 2: rounds Agreed.

2021
01:32:49,920 --> 01:32:52,680
Speaker 3: Hmmm, I think it would. I think it would have

2022
01:32:52,720 --> 01:32:57,240
Speaker 3: been bad. Regardless. I think he is I mean, he

2023
01:32:57,360 --> 01:32:59,599
Speaker 3: is clickbait and he's everything that you want.

2024
01:32:59,640 --> 01:33:01,080
Speaker 4: He is a ready made brand.

2025
01:33:01,120 --> 01:33:03,639
Speaker 3: He was a brand already, So why wouldn't you want

2026
01:33:03,680 --> 01:33:06,640
Speaker 3: to siphon off some of that? The Browns understand it.

2027
01:33:06,680 --> 01:33:10,120
Speaker 3: That's why they're taking care of it. Like, regardless of

2028
01:33:10,160 --> 01:33:13,160
Speaker 3: where he was drafted, whether it's the first round the

2029
01:33:13,280 --> 01:33:17,120
Speaker 3: last round, mister relevant, he was going to command a

2030
01:33:17,160 --> 01:33:20,479
Speaker 3: lot of attention, and that attention might have scared some

2031
01:33:20,600 --> 01:33:25,000
Speaker 3: teams away because they don't want the extra attention, the

2032
01:33:25,080 --> 01:33:28,000
Speaker 3: extra scrutiny that comes along with Hey, when you open

2033
01:33:28,800 --> 01:33:32,840
Speaker 3: up the doors and give people full access, everyone doesn't

2034
01:33:32,840 --> 01:33:33,160
Speaker 3: want that.

2035
01:33:33,680 --> 01:33:34,800
Speaker 4: Everyone's not built for that.

2036
01:33:36,040 --> 01:33:39,360
Speaker 2: In your estimation, you're a scout you played the game,

2037
01:33:40,320 --> 01:33:44,040
Speaker 2: does I mean he will not get the opportunity given

2038
01:33:45,080 --> 01:33:48,920
Speaker 2: what he deserves to make the club because as the

2039
01:33:49,040 --> 01:33:52,240
Speaker 2: fourth fifth quarterback back of the fifth round guy, he's

2040
01:33:52,240 --> 01:33:54,439
Speaker 2: not going to get a lot of opportunities unless someone

2041
01:33:54,439 --> 01:33:57,679
Speaker 2: gets hurt or someone gets traded. But if he does

2042
01:33:57,760 --> 01:34:00,759
Speaker 2: get the opportunity, can he make it in the National

2043
01:34:00,800 --> 01:34:01,639
Speaker 2: Football League?

2044
01:34:02,640 --> 01:34:04,600
Speaker 3: I mean, Look, I stayd about my grades, like, no

2045
01:34:04,680 --> 01:34:06,800
Speaker 3: matter what he was drafted, I stand by Iok. I

2046
01:34:06,800 --> 01:34:08,720
Speaker 3: think he's gonna end up being the guy that we

2047
01:34:08,760 --> 01:34:11,360
Speaker 3: talk about out this class being the best one. I

2048
01:34:11,400 --> 01:34:13,200
Speaker 3: loved what he was able to do, and people talk

2049
01:34:13,240 --> 01:34:15,320
Speaker 3: about the processing and he took a lot of sacks

2050
01:34:15,320 --> 01:34:17,599
Speaker 3: in those things. I just know and watching them and

2051
01:34:17,640 --> 01:34:19,759
Speaker 3: following them from the time he was at Jackson State

2052
01:34:20,200 --> 01:34:23,960
Speaker 3: to the time he concluded his career as a retiree

2053
01:34:24,160 --> 01:34:27,080
Speaker 3: in Colorado. Look, I saw a lot of good things

2054
01:34:27,160 --> 01:34:29,720
Speaker 3: on tape. And he plays the game in a man

2055
01:34:29,760 --> 01:34:32,720
Speaker 3: in which the league has always said they want to

2056
01:34:32,760 --> 01:34:36,400
Speaker 3: player to play from the pocket, deliver under the rest,

2057
01:34:36,640 --> 01:34:40,200
Speaker 3: and make pinpoint throws that you can either use on touch,

2058
01:34:40,320 --> 01:34:43,400
Speaker 3: timing and anticipation. He does all those things, and so

2059
01:34:43,880 --> 01:34:46,280
Speaker 3: I would expect him to play well in a system

2060
01:34:46,760 --> 01:34:49,360
Speaker 3: that is really built for his skill set. I think

2061
01:34:49,400 --> 01:34:51,960
Speaker 3: he is going to surprise people when he has his opportunity.

2062
01:34:52,320 --> 01:34:54,559
Speaker 2: I'm gladt to hear you saying that. Really now sticky

2063
01:34:54,600 --> 01:34:57,280
Speaker 2: with the Cleveland Browns. As you know, they drafted two

2064
01:34:57,320 --> 01:34:59,680
Speaker 2: running backs in the draft of Ohio State, Quenching Junkins and

2065
01:34:59,720 --> 01:35:02,080
Speaker 2: the SA round and the running back out of Tennessee,

2066
01:35:02,200 --> 01:35:05,360
Speaker 2: Dylan Sampson in the fourth round. So that means right now,

2067
01:35:05,840 --> 01:35:09,240
Speaker 2: Nick Chubb could be out the door. This guy's one

2068
01:35:09,280 --> 01:35:13,200
Speaker 2: heck of a running back, although he's coming off an injury. Look,

2069
01:35:13,400 --> 01:35:16,080
Speaker 2: he's on the career rushing list all time for the

2070
01:35:16,120 --> 01:35:20,320
Speaker 2: Cleveland Browns first seven years he's spent in Cleveland. What's

2071
01:35:20,400 --> 01:35:21,840
Speaker 2: the deal? Why do you get rid of a guy

2072
01:35:21,920 --> 01:35:24,120
Speaker 2: like that? I mean, obviously when you have a question

2073
01:35:24,160 --> 01:35:26,320
Speaker 2: about that to me, he always go back and say

2074
01:35:26,360 --> 01:35:28,320
Speaker 2: his money. It's all about money, right, do you think

2075
01:35:28,439 --> 01:35:28,960
Speaker 2: is it money?

2076
01:35:29,640 --> 01:35:33,320
Speaker 3: No? I mean you told me he plays seven years, right, yeah,

2077
01:35:33,360 --> 01:35:36,360
Speaker 3: Like as a running back, that's it, man. I mean,

2078
01:35:36,520 --> 01:35:39,200
Speaker 3: like it is uncommon for a dude to do what

2079
01:35:39,240 --> 01:35:41,719
Speaker 3: Derrick Henry's doing. In the latest stages of his career,

2080
01:35:41,920 --> 01:35:44,880
Speaker 3: Like normally seven years is the magic number, and then

2081
01:35:44,880 --> 01:35:47,040
Speaker 3: you try and find another one. And as much as

2082
01:35:47,080 --> 01:35:49,519
Speaker 3: he is a fan favorite in those things like you

2083
01:35:49,600 --> 01:35:52,920
Speaker 3: love it, but it's business. This is business. They'll bring

2084
01:35:53,000 --> 01:35:54,840
Speaker 3: him back in a couple of years when it's all

2085
01:35:54,840 --> 01:35:56,360
Speaker 3: out of his system and he wants to kind of

2086
01:35:56,360 --> 01:35:59,840
Speaker 3: be affiliated with the organization again, they'll bring him back.

2087
01:36:00,560 --> 01:36:01,439
Speaker 4: You may even venture to.

2088
01:36:01,439 --> 01:36:03,760
Speaker 3: Say that may put his name up in lights in

2089
01:36:03,840 --> 01:36:06,000
Speaker 3: terms of what he was able to accomplish, but he'll

2090
01:36:06,000 --> 01:36:09,240
Speaker 3: always be revered inside the organization. But you can't let

2091
01:36:09,400 --> 01:36:14,519
Speaker 3: your emotions impact your decision make and uh, he he

2092
01:36:15,439 --> 01:36:18,560
Speaker 3: doesn't have the juice anymore, and so you got to

2093
01:36:18,600 --> 01:36:19,280
Speaker 3: find someone who.

2094
01:36:19,240 --> 01:36:19,800
Speaker 4: Has that juice.

2095
01:36:21,160 --> 01:36:22,240
Speaker 2: He's only twenty nine.

2096
01:36:22,280 --> 01:36:25,800
Speaker 3: That's man, that's old for running back. That that's that's old.

2097
01:36:25,800 --> 01:36:29,840
Speaker 3: That's almost a ARP status for running back. Like I mean,

2098
01:36:29,880 --> 01:36:32,840
Speaker 3: you just don't. You don't play like thirty. Like the

2099
01:36:32,920 --> 01:36:35,320
Speaker 3: drop off of running backs is normally twenty eight. And

2100
01:36:35,360 --> 01:36:38,360
Speaker 3: when you think about multiple injuries to the knee and

2101
01:36:38,479 --> 01:36:42,680
Speaker 3: those things, no one, i mean someone may sound like like,

2102
01:36:42,760 --> 01:36:44,479
Speaker 3: but no one is going to be like, hey, let's

2103
01:36:44,479 --> 01:36:46,080
Speaker 3: go get this guy. He is going to be our

2104
01:36:46,160 --> 01:36:48,120
Speaker 3: RB one like those days are done for him.

2105
01:36:48,600 --> 01:36:51,040
Speaker 2: How old is Barkley?

2106
01:36:51,240 --> 01:36:52,960
Speaker 4: I think Takuan is twenty eight.

2107
01:36:53,560 --> 01:36:55,840
Speaker 2: Well, he said, in other words, he's on the downside.

2108
01:36:55,840 --> 01:36:59,639
Speaker 3: He's yeah, he has another he has another year or two,

2109
01:36:59,640 --> 01:37:01,960
Speaker 3: and we'll see what he's like with all these touches. Normally,

2110
01:37:02,040 --> 01:37:04,599
Speaker 3: after you have so many touches, you know, I think

2111
01:37:05,080 --> 01:37:07,720
Speaker 3: three fifteen is the magic number. Man normally does a

2112
01:37:07,800 --> 01:37:10,160
Speaker 3: huge drop off the following year. It's a lot of

2113
01:37:10,160 --> 01:37:12,200
Speaker 3: car wrecks that you're involved in when you're running the

2114
01:37:12,200 --> 01:37:13,559
Speaker 3: ball and touching the ball that much.

2115
01:37:14,240 --> 01:37:16,680
Speaker 2: Well, he had a broken foot last year. In there

2116
01:37:16,760 --> 01:37:20,160
Speaker 2: was Week two when the twenty twenty three season Nick

2117
01:37:20,240 --> 01:37:22,559
Speaker 2: Chubb did But I looked at his stats. I mean,

2118
01:37:22,560 --> 01:37:26,240
Speaker 2: it's really amazing what he did. Fourth time Pro Bowl selection.

2119
01:37:26,680 --> 01:37:28,840
Speaker 2: He rushed from one in one thousand yards four straight

2120
01:37:28,920 --> 01:37:32,280
Speaker 2: years before twenty twenty three, a career high fifteen to

2121
01:37:32,320 --> 01:37:37,080
Speaker 2: twenty five yards in twenty twenty two, and Chubb is

2122
01:37:37,120 --> 01:37:40,080
Speaker 2: still averaging five point one yards per carrying his career

2123
01:37:40,560 --> 01:37:44,000
Speaker 2: despite a terrible year last year. Because last year he

2124
01:37:44,040 --> 01:37:47,200
Speaker 2: did something like three hundred and thirty two yards and

2125
01:37:47,240 --> 01:37:49,519
Speaker 2: it's just a couple of games because then he couldn't

2126
01:37:49,520 --> 01:37:51,880
Speaker 2: play anymore. He was hurt and they broke that foot

2127
01:37:51,920 --> 01:37:54,439
Speaker 2: in week number fifteen. He's going to be picked up

2128
01:37:54,520 --> 01:37:57,040
Speaker 2: if Cleveland lets him go, someone's going to pick him

2129
01:37:57,120 --> 01:37:58,519
Speaker 2: up and say, look, we're going to take a.

2130
01:37:58,520 --> 01:37:59,320
Speaker 3: Chance to those guys.

2131
01:38:00,040 --> 01:38:01,720
Speaker 4: I don't know, man, I think this would be a

2132
01:38:01,800 --> 01:38:03,040
Speaker 4: late move. This would be a.

2133
01:38:02,960 --> 01:38:06,080
Speaker 3: Training camp move at the end of it, probably based

2134
01:38:06,120 --> 01:38:08,160
Speaker 3: on both sides of it. The thing about him is

2135
01:38:08,200 --> 01:38:10,040
Speaker 3: you talked about him coming back last year and he

2136
01:38:10,160 --> 01:38:13,720
Speaker 3: struggled when it comes to the numbers. He's had multiple

2137
01:38:14,120 --> 01:38:18,679
Speaker 3: injury issues, need concerns, all of that. Like that doesn't

2138
01:38:18,720 --> 01:38:20,599
Speaker 3: bowl well for you being able to get another thing.

2139
01:38:20,640 --> 01:38:22,960
Speaker 3: He may play, but he's gonna play on minimum contracts

2140
01:38:23,000 --> 01:38:25,360
Speaker 3: from here on out. Like it is over the big

2141
01:38:26,400 --> 01:38:31,640
Speaker 3: spectacular blockbuster Paybe Payday all gone. You know, too much warrantey,

2142
01:38:31,720 --> 01:38:32,920
Speaker 3: too much milage.

2143
01:38:34,040 --> 01:38:34,720
Speaker 2: Incentives.

2144
01:38:35,800 --> 01:38:38,320
Speaker 4: I mean, maybe he may get a minimum deal.

2145
01:38:38,479 --> 01:38:42,600
Speaker 3: He may like when it goes and you become the

2146
01:38:42,720 --> 01:38:45,240
Speaker 3: other guy, the rotational player, he can look to do.

2147
01:38:46,479 --> 01:38:49,880
Speaker 3: He'd be very similar to Ezekiel Elliott. Ezekiel Elliott was

2148
01:38:49,920 --> 01:38:52,400
Speaker 3: with Pages four Minutes, but he didn't make any significant money.

2149
01:38:52,439 --> 01:38:55,160
Speaker 3: Comes back to the Cowboys minimum deal, and then he

2150
01:38:55,160 --> 01:38:57,600
Speaker 3: couldn't handle it because it's hard to go for me

2151
01:38:57,680 --> 01:39:01,240
Speaker 3: in a superstar on your team to now I'm gonna

2152
01:39:01,240 --> 01:39:03,080
Speaker 3: be on that same team, but I'm gonna be in a.

2153
01:39:03,040 --> 01:39:05,320
Speaker 4: Ready reserve role. That is hard.

2154
01:39:05,360 --> 01:39:08,960
Speaker 3: That is something that twists and plays with your mind. That, Hey,

2155
01:39:09,000 --> 01:39:10,400
Speaker 3: I went from me in the start, in the face

2156
01:39:10,400 --> 01:39:12,840
Speaker 3: of the franchise to now I'm just I mean, I'm

2157
01:39:12,840 --> 01:39:15,120
Speaker 3: one of the pips. I'm not glad it's night, I'm

2158
01:39:15,160 --> 01:39:15,519
Speaker 3: in the back.

2159
01:39:15,560 --> 01:39:16,240
Speaker 4: I'm just back.

2160
01:39:16,720 --> 01:39:18,799
Speaker 3: I'm one of the pips. I'm just singing in the background.

2161
01:39:18,880 --> 01:39:22,080
Speaker 3: No one even knows who I am. Everyone isn't built

2162
01:39:22,080 --> 01:39:25,400
Speaker 3: to do that. And I use Adrian Peterson as an example.

2163
01:39:25,720 --> 01:39:27,720
Speaker 3: He had a hard time in New Orleans. Remember when

2164
01:39:27,720 --> 01:39:31,439
Speaker 3: he was playing under Sean Payton and Sean Payne' say look, hey, dude,

2165
01:39:31,479 --> 01:39:33,639
Speaker 3: like you're not the starter, Like you're a role player.

2166
01:39:33,680 --> 01:39:35,280
Speaker 3: You want of the rotation of guys.

2167
01:39:36,840 --> 01:39:39,920
Speaker 2: Have you seen an athlete like that that basically was

2168
01:39:39,960 --> 01:39:42,479
Speaker 2: on your team, a teammate who was a star and

2169
01:39:42,479 --> 01:39:45,040
Speaker 2: another team and he came in there in a backup

2170
01:39:45,120 --> 01:39:49,320
Speaker 2: role that just became disgruntled and it was a negative

2171
01:39:49,560 --> 01:39:51,880
Speaker 2: part of the team because he couldn't handle it. Have

2172
01:39:51,920 --> 01:39:52,920
Speaker 2: you seen guys like that?

2173
01:39:53,760 --> 01:39:54,000
Speaker 3: Uh?

2174
01:39:54,080 --> 01:39:57,559
Speaker 4: Yeah, Like, and you have to know the temperament of

2175
01:39:57,600 --> 01:39:58,200
Speaker 4: the player.

2176
01:39:58,800 --> 01:39:58,920
Speaker 3: Like.

2177
01:39:59,040 --> 01:40:01,720
Speaker 4: Everyone isn't to do that. Everyone can't.

2178
01:40:03,600 --> 01:40:08,080
Speaker 3: Seamlessly transition into the back to the backup position. There's

2179
01:40:08,080 --> 01:40:11,600
Speaker 3: a reason why the backup quarterbacks operate like they do.

2180
01:40:11,760 --> 01:40:14,200
Speaker 3: It may frustrate people because they know once the backup

2181
01:40:14,240 --> 01:40:18,080
Speaker 3: goes in, he can't play. But if you bring in

2182
01:40:18,160 --> 01:40:20,800
Speaker 3: another autphit and now you have a very contentious and

2183
01:40:20,880 --> 01:40:25,160
Speaker 3: divisive quarterback room. That's why Cam Newton couldn't get signed

2184
01:40:25,160 --> 01:40:27,280
Speaker 3: despite all the things saying that he was good enough

2185
01:40:27,320 --> 01:40:30,720
Speaker 3: to be a backup quarterback. For some guys, the thing

2186
01:40:30,880 --> 01:40:35,120
Speaker 3: is either starter or it's over. There's no in between

2187
01:40:35,160 --> 01:40:38,679
Speaker 3: because people feel threatened either about your presence or they're

2188
01:40:38,680 --> 01:40:42,120
Speaker 3: insecure having you around, and they would rather not deal

2189
01:40:42,200 --> 01:40:42,519
Speaker 3: with it.

2190
01:40:43,200 --> 01:40:45,720
Speaker 2: See what you're saying. But right now it's time for

2191
01:40:46,120 --> 01:40:48,880
Speaker 2: the tire Roc play the day.

2192

01:42:24,600 --> 01:42:27,240
Speaker 2: get up the air. Now, we have the blame game

2222
01:42:27,280 --> 01:42:29,320
Speaker 2: coming up in about ten twelve minutes from now, but

2223
01:42:29,760 --> 01:42:31,680
Speaker 2: let's talk about this first seconds. I think it needs

2224
01:42:31,720 --> 01:42:33,559
Speaker 2: to be discussed. It really does. If there are a

2225
01:42:33,560 --> 01:42:37,120
Speaker 2: Game two loss, which received his fifth technical foul of

2226
01:42:37,160 --> 01:42:41,560
Speaker 2: the playoffs, Golden State Warriors star Draymond Green express frustration

2227
01:42:42,120 --> 01:42:46,400
Speaker 2: of what he called quote an agenda to portray him

2228
01:42:46,439 --> 01:42:50,639
Speaker 2: as a quote angry black man. Okay, After the game,

2229
01:42:51,240 --> 01:42:54,160
Speaker 2: Draymond gave a quick statement to reporter saying he believes

2230
01:42:54,320 --> 01:42:57,639
Speaker 2: there is an agenda against him. He didn't elaborate, though,

2231
01:42:57,840 --> 01:43:00,840
Speaker 2: and he said, quote, look like the angry black man.

2232
01:43:00,920 --> 01:43:02,439
Speaker 2: This is what Green said the reporter is in the

2233
01:43:02,520 --> 01:43:05,240
Speaker 2: visitor's locker room. Quote. I'm not an angry black man.

2234
01:43:05,400 --> 01:43:09,120
Speaker 2: I'm a very successful, educated black man with a great family,

2235
01:43:09,280 --> 01:43:11,120
Speaker 2: and I'm a great at basketball and great at what

2236
01:43:11,200 --> 01:43:13,640
Speaker 2: I do. All Right, the agenda trying to keep me,

2237
01:43:13,720 --> 01:43:15,920
Speaker 2: making me look bad like an angry black man is crazy.

2238
01:43:16,000 --> 01:43:18,160
Speaker 2: I'm sick of it. It's ridiculous. I would say this

2239
01:43:18,600 --> 01:43:22,000
Speaker 2: all right. I think he's very intelligent. He's smart enough

2240
01:43:22,040 --> 01:43:24,439
Speaker 2: to play the role of the villain. He knows what

2241
01:43:24,479 --> 01:43:26,680
Speaker 2: he's doing. He knows exactly what he's doing. He's not

2242
01:43:26,720 --> 01:43:29,679
Speaker 2: an angry black man. He's played a role that basically

2243
01:43:29,760 --> 01:43:32,680
Speaker 2: has helped the Golden State Warriors to four championships. He's

2244
01:43:32,720 --> 01:43:35,599
Speaker 2: a future Hall of Famer. But for him to say

2245
01:43:35,680 --> 01:43:38,880
Speaker 2: these things and you keep it to yourself, dreamer, because

2246
01:43:38,960 --> 01:43:41,040
Speaker 2: it doesn't do you any good. Just like the other

2247
01:43:41,120 --> 01:43:43,680
Speaker 2: day when he got into it in Minnesota when some

2248
01:43:43,920 --> 01:43:48,040
Speaker 2: moron in Minneapolis was throwing epithets at him and you know,

2249
01:43:48,320 --> 01:43:50,760
Speaker 2: racial slurs at him, and he went after the guy.

2250
01:43:50,840 --> 01:43:52,880
Speaker 2: I get it. I get it. It would make you

2251
01:43:53,000 --> 01:43:55,720
Speaker 2: crazy to make your skin cringe. It does, but you

2252
01:43:55,840 --> 01:43:58,640
Speaker 2: got to control yourself. You can't, but sometimes you can.

2253
01:43:58,920 --> 01:44:02,320
Speaker 2: I understand, when the uniforms on, you're a different individual, Bucket.

2254
01:44:02,400 --> 01:44:04,479
Speaker 2: I'm sure you've seen that with many an athlete. When

2255
01:44:04,479 --> 01:44:07,439
Speaker 2: the uniform's on, you're a different person. That's basically what

2256
01:44:07,400 --> 01:44:10,120
Speaker 2: it is. But he's not an angry guy. He's playing

2257
01:44:10,120 --> 01:44:11,479
Speaker 2: a role of an angry guy.

2258
01:44:12,439 --> 01:44:14,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, So there are a few different things we have

2259
01:44:14,439 --> 01:44:18,120
Speaker 3: to impact. One the racial slurs and those things, Like

2260
01:44:18,760 --> 01:44:21,559
Speaker 3: I'm actually with him in terms of like confronting it,

2261
01:44:21,600 --> 01:44:24,320
Speaker 3: because people think they can say anything and hide behind

2262
01:44:24,320 --> 01:44:25,880
Speaker 3: the fact that they purchased a ticket.

2263
01:44:26,240 --> 01:44:29,400
Speaker 4: So whether it's racial or not, like just because you paid.

2264
01:44:29,120 --> 01:44:31,040
Speaker 3: Your money, you're not going to talk to me any

2265
01:44:31,080 --> 01:44:32,920
Speaker 3: your type of way because a lot of the times

2266
01:44:32,960 --> 01:44:35,920
Speaker 3: the way that you talk to people like fans at games.

2267
01:44:36,240 --> 01:44:40,200
Speaker 3: You would never approach someone in public and say those things,

2268
01:44:40,200 --> 01:44:42,720
Speaker 3: but you're in the safety and security of being in

2269
01:44:42,760 --> 01:44:45,240
Speaker 3: the stands and you're protected by security in those things.

2270
01:44:45,240 --> 01:44:47,920
Speaker 3: So I understand him going off on that. I think

2271
01:44:47,960 --> 01:44:52,000
Speaker 3: what Draymond's frustration comes with when he talks about being

2272
01:44:52,000 --> 01:44:55,479
Speaker 3: portrayed like the angry black Man. The clips, and this

2273
01:44:55,600 --> 01:44:59,040
Speaker 3: happens right from a TV perspective, The clips that the

2274
01:44:59,080 --> 01:45:05,400
Speaker 3: producer p depict a picture or an image of who

2275
01:45:05,560 --> 01:45:08,920
Speaker 3: Draymond Green is. And so if every time we're watching

2276
01:45:09,000 --> 01:45:11,799
Speaker 3: TV and the b roll, which is the highlight package

2277
01:45:11,800 --> 01:45:14,719
Speaker 3: that they play over the voiceover when people are talking

2278
01:45:14,720 --> 01:45:18,640
Speaker 3: about him, if it's always him engaging in conflict or

2279
01:45:18,680 --> 01:45:22,120
Speaker 3: being angry or getting a technical in those things.

2280
01:45:22,560 --> 01:45:28,200
Speaker 4: It does paint a certain picture around who he is

2281
01:45:28,280 --> 01:45:28,759
Speaker 4: and whatever.

2282
01:45:28,840 --> 01:45:30,800
Speaker 3: Like, he's right, he's a Hall of Famer, he's a

2283
01:45:30,840 --> 01:45:33,639
Speaker 3: four time champion. He is someone who when you really

2284
01:45:33,720 --> 01:45:37,320
Speaker 3: watch him play, there's a lot more smiling than the

2285
01:45:37,400 --> 01:45:41,600
Speaker 3: contentiousness that we talk about. But because the stuff that

2286
01:45:42,000 --> 01:45:47,120
Speaker 3: sizzles is his arguments and all of the bruhs that

2287
01:45:47,160 --> 01:45:50,519
Speaker 3: he engages in, it does paint him and portray him

2288
01:45:50,560 --> 01:45:54,120
Speaker 3: as someone who might have anger management issues because that's

2289
01:45:54,200 --> 01:45:54,920
Speaker 3: all we see.

2290
01:45:55,160 --> 01:45:56,640
Speaker 4: It's not a balanced.

2291
01:45:56,200 --> 01:45:59,680
Speaker 3: Portrayal of who he is, which leads to his frustration

2292
01:46:00,360 --> 01:46:02,479
Speaker 3: being portrayed as the angry black man because all we

2293
01:46:02,520 --> 01:46:05,320
Speaker 3: see when we see the highlights are him angry and

2294
01:46:05,360 --> 01:46:05,840
Speaker 3: he's black.

2295
01:46:06,760 --> 01:46:08,960
Speaker 2: Right, how up? But that the league is eighty five

2296
01:46:08,960 --> 01:46:11,080
Speaker 2: percent black anyway, Yeah.

2297
01:46:10,960 --> 01:46:13,720
Speaker 4: But that doesn't, that doesn't, that doesn't, that doesn't.

2298
01:46:13,520 --> 01:46:16,080
Speaker 3: Take away from what he's talking about. Like, just because

2299
01:46:16,640 --> 01:46:19,960
Speaker 3: the league is black doesn't mean that he can't be

2300
01:46:20,080 --> 01:46:23,200
Speaker 3: portrayed as the angry black man. He is talking about

2301
01:46:23,240 --> 01:46:25,760
Speaker 3: the portrayal and what he sees when he turns on

2302
01:46:25,840 --> 01:46:29,840
Speaker 3: TV about them talking about Draymond Green. The only things

2303
01:46:29,840 --> 01:46:34,320
Speaker 3: that you see related to Draymond are him having these

2304
01:46:34,800 --> 01:46:39,200
Speaker 3: confrontations with people, getting technicals and all of that, and

2305
01:46:39,240 --> 01:46:43,559
Speaker 3: it's not balanced by the smiling, the happy, go lucky Draymond.

2306
01:46:43,640 --> 01:46:46,080
Speaker 3: So when we talk about Draymond, the first thing that

2307
01:46:46,120 --> 01:46:47,080
Speaker 3: we'll talk about.

2308
01:46:46,920 --> 01:46:50,160
Speaker 4: Based on our views, Man, he's angry. Man.

2309
01:46:50,200 --> 01:46:52,920
Speaker 3: He's always in some stuff. Man, he's a goon. Some

2310
01:46:52,960 --> 01:46:56,559
Speaker 3: people will say quote unquote thug, and so to him,

2311
01:46:56,600 --> 01:46:59,160
Speaker 3: he's like, I'm so much more than that. But all

2312
01:46:59,320 --> 01:47:04,000
Speaker 3: I get portrayed as is the angry, conflicting, conflicted guy.

2313
01:47:04,479 --> 01:47:07,760
Speaker 2: Right, I would say this, if Adam Silver, the commissioner

2314
01:47:07,760 --> 01:47:09,839
Speaker 2: of the NBA, had a pair of hanging down things,

2315
01:47:10,120 --> 01:47:12,879
Speaker 2: this is what should be done. Right now, that clown,

2316
01:47:13,520 --> 01:47:17,040
Speaker 2: that piece of egrement that that was in Minneapolis the

2317
01:47:17,040 --> 01:47:20,840
Speaker 2: other day making those racial slurs, be it intoxicated or not,

2318
01:47:21,200 --> 01:47:24,080
Speaker 2: should be banned from every NBA game for the rest

2319
01:47:24,080 --> 01:47:26,200
Speaker 2: of his life. I don't I don't care. That's what

2320
01:47:26,280 --> 01:47:28,639
Speaker 2: he That's what Adam Silver should do, but he won't

2321
01:47:28,680 --> 01:47:31,760
Speaker 2: because he doesn't have the hanging downs. Number two, What

2322
01:47:32,280 --> 01:47:35,439
Speaker 2: I would love to have seen this if in fact

2323
01:47:35,680 --> 01:47:38,479
Speaker 2: it really happened, and I'm sure it did. I would

2324
01:47:38,479 --> 01:47:42,040
Speaker 2: love to see Steve Kerr take his team off the court.

2325
01:47:42,280 --> 01:47:45,080
Speaker 2: We're not playing until this guy's removed. You got to

2326
01:47:45,120 --> 01:47:49,559
Speaker 2: stop that, because it's never gonna stop unless something's done right.

2327
01:47:50,240 --> 01:47:53,240
Speaker 2: In other words, people speed until there's a stop sign

2328
01:47:53,320 --> 01:47:56,479
Speaker 2: on the street. People speed until it's until there's a

2329
01:47:56,560 --> 01:48:00,719
Speaker 2: traffic light. Then it stops, hopefully to some extent entirely,

2330
01:48:00,800 --> 01:48:05,000
Speaker 2: but to some extent. And this garbage that happens at

2331
01:48:05,000 --> 01:48:07,920
Speaker 2: games when people just get in front of the face,

2332
01:48:08,160 --> 01:48:11,080
Speaker 2: and especially in basketball because eight is only five on

2333
01:48:11,120 --> 01:48:13,679
Speaker 2: a court. B you're sitting real close to the action,

2334
01:48:13,960 --> 01:48:15,960
Speaker 2: not like in football. And see they're not wearing a

2335
01:48:16,000 --> 01:48:18,839
Speaker 2: lot of protectional stuff like in football with the helmets

2336
01:48:18,840 --> 01:48:20,719
Speaker 2: and stuff, so you can see the guys. They're running

2337
01:48:20,760 --> 01:48:22,720
Speaker 2: around in an underwear. That's what they're doing. But I

2338
01:48:22,760 --> 01:48:26,000
Speaker 2: would love to have seen Steve Carr saying, my team's

2339
01:48:26,040 --> 01:48:28,800
Speaker 2: coming off the court. We're finished. We're not doing this

2340
01:48:28,920 --> 01:48:31,880
Speaker 2: until he's removed. I don't want my guys and my

2341
01:48:31,960 --> 01:48:35,120
Speaker 2: team to be subject to this idiot. And he's an idiot,

2342
01:48:35,280 --> 01:48:36,000
Speaker 2: that's what he was.

2343
01:48:37,280 --> 01:48:39,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, like you have to have severe stuff

2344
01:48:39,280 --> 01:48:40,800
Speaker 3: if you don't want that in your game, then you

2345
01:48:40,880 --> 01:48:44,200
Speaker 3: have to have severe consequences. It's no different in overseas.

2346
01:48:44,240 --> 01:48:47,120
Speaker 3: Sometimes if you shoplift and they cut your hands off,

2347
01:48:47,280 --> 01:48:50,720
Speaker 3: like some severe so everyone knows, like, oh, whoa if

2348
01:48:50,760 --> 01:48:55,520
Speaker 3: I do that, these are the consequences. Yeah, Like if

2349
01:48:55,600 --> 01:49:00,720
Speaker 3: there was a severe penalty for engaging in and and

2350
01:49:00,840 --> 01:49:03,160
Speaker 3: act like that, Yeah, like it would it would curb

2351
01:49:03,280 --> 01:49:06,400
Speaker 3: a lot of the activity and those things. It's a

2352
01:49:06,439 --> 01:49:08,000
Speaker 3: lot to manage, right, Like, you have a lot of

2353
01:49:08,040 --> 01:49:10,519
Speaker 3: things going on. The game is entertainment. You want fans

2354
01:49:10,560 --> 01:49:13,799
Speaker 3: to be fans. You want fans to support their respective teams,

2355
01:49:13,800 --> 01:49:18,920
Speaker 3: and they should have the right to kind of say

2356
01:49:18,960 --> 01:49:20,720
Speaker 3: whatever it is that they want to say within the

2357
01:49:20,800 --> 01:49:24,240
Speaker 3: game within reason though, and some things are off limits

2358
01:49:24,280 --> 01:49:29,240
Speaker 3: and some things that are very personal. Well then it

2359
01:49:29,280 --> 01:49:31,519
Speaker 3: elicits a response and they have to be willing to

2360
01:49:31,560 --> 01:49:35,599
Speaker 3: deal with that response. But you can't cloak of it's

2361
01:49:35,640 --> 01:49:38,400
Speaker 3: always it's always kind of existed. But I'll be honest

2362
01:49:38,400 --> 01:49:42,240
Speaker 3: with you, man, with the explosion of Twitter and the

2363
01:49:42,360 --> 01:49:47,640
Speaker 3: changing tone of the country when it came to the

2364
01:49:47,760 --> 01:49:52,280
Speaker 3: language that we use towards one another, Yeah, like it

2365
01:49:52,640 --> 01:49:57,880
Speaker 3: is seeped into every aspect politician, That's.

2366
01:49:57,800 --> 01:49:58,240
Speaker 4: What I'm saying.

2367
01:49:58,280 --> 01:50:00,280
Speaker 3: No, no, no, no, no, no, that's what I'm saying. And like

2368
01:50:00,320 --> 01:50:02,920
Speaker 3: the changing tone. There used to be a level of

2369
01:50:02,960 --> 01:50:06,639
Speaker 3: decorum that we engaged in where look, you wouldn't say

2370
01:50:07,200 --> 01:50:09,479
Speaker 3: things right for the sake of being Oh, I'm professor,

2371
01:50:09,560 --> 01:50:12,000
Speaker 3: I can't utter that or whatever. And then it became

2372
01:50:12,160 --> 01:50:17,240
Speaker 3: more attacking, more of the volatile things.

2373
01:50:17,320 --> 01:50:17,880
Speaker 4: It has been.

2374
01:50:18,280 --> 01:50:22,800
Speaker 3: The fans have been kind of stoked, not only by politicians,

2375
01:50:22,800 --> 01:50:24,760
Speaker 3: but look, I felt like we did a lot of

2376
01:50:24,760 --> 01:50:28,360
Speaker 3: this when it came to sports talk TV, right, the

2377
01:50:28,400 --> 01:50:31,360
Speaker 3: debates and the words that we use, calling people scrubs

2378
01:50:31,400 --> 01:50:34,160
Speaker 3: and those things, calling people out of their names and

2379
01:50:34,200 --> 01:50:37,679
Speaker 3: all of that as it relates to athletes, we didn't

2380
01:50:37,760 --> 01:50:42,280
Speaker 3: do that. That wasn't a big part of the discourse forever.

2381
01:50:42,760 --> 01:50:47,400
Speaker 3: But then sports became sports TV became entertainment, and the

2382
01:50:47,439 --> 01:50:50,400
Speaker 3: more that we entertained, the more that we were fighting

2383
01:50:50,439 --> 01:50:53,880
Speaker 3: for attention. The more we fought for that attention, the

2384
01:50:53,880 --> 01:50:56,960
Speaker 3: more wild and outlandist the statements came. And so now

2385
01:50:57,040 --> 01:51:00,439
Speaker 3: that seeps in to the normal conversation, and then so

2386
01:51:00,800 --> 01:51:03,439
Speaker 3: fans take their cues from what they see on TV.

2387
01:51:04,040 --> 01:51:06,080
Speaker 2: Or maybe they're saying, look, I'm paying a thousand dollars

2388
01:51:06,120 --> 01:51:07,519
Speaker 2: for a seat right behind the bench. I could do

2389
01:51:07,560 --> 01:51:08,559
Speaker 2: whatever the hell I want to do.

2390
01:51:09,200 --> 01:51:13,240
Speaker 3: I mean some of that, like, some of that does that,

2391
01:51:13,280 --> 01:51:16,000
Speaker 3: But I feel like it's been fostered and fueled by

2392
01:51:17,520 --> 01:51:22,880
Speaker 3: journalists and talking hits beginning to say sensationalize things and

2393
01:51:22,920 --> 01:51:26,479
Speaker 3: big statements and everyone trying to create things that go

2394
01:51:26,680 --> 01:51:28,040
Speaker 3: viral or clickbait.

2395
01:51:28,520 --> 01:51:30,320
Speaker 4: It's all of that. People trying to get famous for

2396
01:51:30,360 --> 01:51:30,840
Speaker 4: no reason.

2397
01:51:30,880 --> 01:51:31,680
Speaker 3: There's a lot of that.

2398
01:51:32,160 --> 01:51:33,920
Speaker 2: No, you're right, but you know what, my hero is

2399
01:51:33,960 --> 01:51:36,400
Speaker 2: Lincoln Kennedy. Not that you're not my hero in a

2400
01:51:36,439 --> 01:51:38,200
Speaker 2: different go but and I've told you this story I

2401
01:51:38,240 --> 01:51:42,000
Speaker 2: think before when Lincoln Kennedy played football, some guy hit

2402
01:51:42,040 --> 01:51:43,960
Speaker 2: him with a snowball, you know. I think it was

2403
01:51:44,000 --> 01:51:46,400
Speaker 2: in Denver. He said, he right up at the stands

2404
01:51:46,400 --> 01:51:48,200
Speaker 2: and beat the living daylights out of the guy. It

2405
01:51:48,280 --> 01:51:51,720
Speaker 2: was great. I mean, I love that. It's why why

2406
01:51:51,760 --> 01:51:53,920
Speaker 2: are you throwing the snowball at the football? I don't

2407
01:51:53,960 --> 01:51:55,720
Speaker 2: get it, but that's what people do. And I think

2408
01:51:55,760 --> 01:51:57,519
Speaker 2: a lot alcohol has a lot to do with it too.

2409
01:51:58,000 --> 01:51:59,920
Speaker 2: I'm sure it does. But if you go to a game,

2410
01:52:00,120 --> 01:52:02,040
Speaker 2: are you spending eight to ten dollars for a being

2411
01:52:02,080 --> 01:52:04,760
Speaker 2: ready in mind anyway, Really, that's what they do.

2412
01:52:05,439 --> 01:52:07,880
Speaker 3: I mean, alcohol has a lot to do with it,

2413
01:52:07,880 --> 01:52:11,839
Speaker 3: but alcohol doesn't excuse the behavior. And when you feel

2414
01:52:11,880 --> 01:52:14,320
Speaker 3: like in the sands you can say whatever it is

2415
01:52:14,360 --> 01:52:17,519
Speaker 3: that you want to say without reproach, well yeah, you

2416
01:52:17,560 --> 01:52:20,200
Speaker 3: say those things, and then it takes something like a

2417
01:52:20,240 --> 01:52:22,120
Speaker 3: Lincoln Kidney coming up in the stands and be like,

2418
01:52:22,120 --> 01:52:24,840
Speaker 3: oh whoa, whoa, whoa. They fight back, you know, like

2419
01:52:25,160 --> 01:52:27,479
Speaker 3: because for so long it has always been turned to

2420
01:52:27,479 --> 01:52:29,559
Speaker 3: the other cheek. Don't listen to that ignored. You get

2421
01:52:29,640 --> 01:52:32,679
Speaker 3: paid money that shouldn't bother you or whatever. But yeah,

2422
01:52:32,680 --> 01:52:34,640
Speaker 3: some days I don't feel like hearing that. And so

2423
01:52:34,720 --> 01:52:36,479
Speaker 3: you're not gonna talk to me in any kind of way,

2424
01:52:36,640 --> 01:52:38,639
Speaker 3: because you wouldn't talk to me any kind of way

2425
01:52:38,680 --> 01:52:41,280
Speaker 3: if we were in the mall, if I was out

2426
01:52:41,280 --> 01:52:43,960
Speaker 3: to dinner, you wouldn't say those things because then you

2427
01:52:44,000 --> 01:52:46,519
Speaker 3: would have to deal with me in public. But in

2428
01:52:46,560 --> 01:52:51,280
Speaker 3: the game, some people feel security that feel feel comfortable

2429
01:52:51,400 --> 01:52:54,000
Speaker 3: enough to say it because they don't think one they'll

2430
01:52:54,040 --> 01:52:56,439
Speaker 3: either be heard or two the player will confront them.

2431
01:52:56,920 --> 01:52:58,880
Speaker 2: You know what I would like to see though, I'd

2432
01:52:58,920 --> 01:53:01,360
Speaker 2: like to see tom Izzo go public and kind of

2433
01:53:01,400 --> 01:53:04,360
Speaker 2: defend Draymond because he played. Draymond played for him at

2434
01:53:04,360 --> 01:53:06,880
Speaker 2: Michigan State, and you know, to play for tom Izzo,

2435
01:53:07,360 --> 01:53:12,720
Speaker 2: he's a pretty structured disciplinarian. Iszzo and Draymond played and

2436
01:53:12,720 --> 01:53:15,400
Speaker 2: there was never a problem. I don't recall any problem

2437
01:53:15,439 --> 01:53:18,200
Speaker 2: whatsoever when Draymond played at Michigan State. So if Tom

2438
01:53:18,240 --> 01:53:21,360
Speaker 2: is it would just come out there and say something, say, look,

2439
01:53:21,880 --> 01:53:24,960
Speaker 2: he was an athlete here, played for me at Michigan State.

2440
01:53:25,200 --> 01:53:27,400
Speaker 2: Never had a problem with him, went the class, never

2441
01:53:27,439 --> 01:53:30,960
Speaker 2: had confrontations with him when he was here. So obviously,

2442
01:53:31,160 --> 01:53:35,080
Speaker 2: you know this label that they put on him in

2443
01:53:35,120 --> 01:53:38,200
Speaker 2: the National Basketball Association, it's false. It's ridiculous, and I

2444
01:53:38,200 --> 01:53:40,360
Speaker 2: think it should stop. Boom. I'd love to see his

2445
01:53:40,439 --> 01:53:42,400
Speaker 2: thoe do that and he could put an end to it. Really,

2446
01:53:42,920 --> 01:53:43,320
Speaker 2: I love it.

2447
01:53:43,400 --> 01:53:46,479
Speaker 3: But now I'm gonna say this, Draymond is responsible for

2448
01:53:46,520 --> 01:53:50,080
Speaker 3: some of the portrayal, right, Like, we can't excuse his actions.

2449
01:53:50,120 --> 01:53:52,960
Speaker 3: He has done some silly, dumb stuff and he has

2450
01:53:52,960 --> 01:53:58,320
Speaker 3: a string of i would say, behaviors and actions that

2451
01:53:58,400 --> 01:54:01,599
Speaker 3: have led people to view him a certain way, right,

2452
01:54:01,880 --> 01:54:04,880
Speaker 3: We've seen him getting kerfuffles and do things. Going back

2453
01:54:04,920 --> 01:54:08,200
Speaker 3: to Lebron the incident with that, we've seen him and

2454
01:54:08,240 --> 01:54:11,120
Speaker 3: the elbow. He certainly plays the role of the villain

2455
01:54:11,400 --> 01:54:12,960
Speaker 3: the bill Limbier.

2456
01:54:13,400 --> 01:54:14,200
Speaker 2: Pushed the teammate.

2457
01:54:14,479 --> 01:54:17,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, he does that. Now, we didn't get a chance

2458
01:54:17,320 --> 01:54:19,280
Speaker 3: to really see that because we weren't in practice.

2459
01:54:19,320 --> 01:54:21,640
Speaker 4: But all of that plays into it.

2460
01:54:21,760 --> 01:54:26,040
Speaker 3: And as much as he is right with the portrayal,

2461
01:54:26,560 --> 01:54:29,559
Speaker 3: he has given them reasons to portray him like that,

2462
01:54:30,000 --> 01:54:31,759
Speaker 3: so two things can be right at once.

2463
01:54:32,040 --> 01:54:33,160
Speaker 4: They may portray him as the.

2464
01:54:33,200 --> 01:54:35,720
Speaker 3: Angry black man, but he certainly has given them enough

2465
01:54:35,760 --> 01:54:39,080
Speaker 3: evidence to show off being an angry black man.

2466
01:54:39,120 --> 01:54:40,280
Speaker 4: That hasn't balanced it enough.

2467
01:54:40,760 --> 01:54:44,400
Speaker 2: You're exactly right, You're you're not. You're a pleasant individual

2468
01:54:44,440 --> 01:54:46,400
Speaker 2: to work with. I love you to death, I really do.

2469
01:54:46,560 --> 01:54:49,080
Speaker 2: And Happy Mother's Day. All right, he's bucket Brooks. I

2470
01:54:49,160 --> 01:54:52,120
Speaker 2: mean for we have Fox Butts Sunday on Fox, but Shreddy,

2471
01:54:52,120 --> 01:54:57,800
Speaker 2: it's time. The playing game is freaking next, all right,

2472
01:54:57,840 --> 01:54:59,760
Speaker 2: the playing game coming right up? Where live for the

2473
01:54:59,760 --> 01:55:02,000
Speaker 2: Fox but its radio studios. About eleven minutes before the

2474
01:55:02,040 --> 01:55:04,600
Speaker 2: top of the hour. Top of the hour, we have countdown.

2475
01:55:04,600 --> 01:55:07,480
Speaker 2: Brian no. Jeff Schwartz, Bill Krakenberg on glet Brian Os

2476
01:55:07,520 --> 01:55:09,760
Speaker 2: back back on Action. He was a little sick earlier

2477
01:55:09,800 --> 01:55:13,080
Speaker 2: in the week. And I will say this, Bucky Brooks.

2478
01:55:13,360 --> 01:55:16,840
Speaker 2: We have a situation here where Gary Deborde. Gary de

2479
01:55:16,920 --> 01:55:19,160
Speaker 2: Borde just wrote me and he said, I made a

2480
01:55:19,160 --> 01:55:20,640
Speaker 2: little bit of a stake this morning. I said. The

2481
01:55:20,680 --> 01:55:22,960
Speaker 2: no facial hair the Cincinnati Reds was a policy of

2482
01:55:23,000 --> 01:55:25,680
Speaker 2: March shot. Gary, thank you for running. He says, you're

2483
01:55:25,680 --> 01:55:27,840
Speaker 2: a mistaken The policy went back to at least nineteen

2484
01:55:27,960 --> 01:55:30,320
Speaker 2: seventy said I think it was a Bob Housen thing.

2485
01:55:30,640 --> 01:55:32,960
Speaker 2: Everyone had to be in uniform. Pete Rose said in

2486
01:55:32,960 --> 01:55:35,720
Speaker 2: an interview one time he put a tiny fourteen in

2487
01:55:35,760 --> 01:55:38,200
Speaker 2: the back of his batting helmet once and Dick Wagner,

2488
01:55:38,280 --> 01:55:41,120
Speaker 2: the general manager, sword on TV and called the stadium

2489
01:55:41,120 --> 01:55:42,960
Speaker 2: to make him remove it before his det Stead back.

2490
01:55:43,240 --> 01:55:45,600
Speaker 2: The red sturbs had to be all the same length

2491
01:55:45,880 --> 01:55:49,000
Speaker 2: and no logos or cleats, black shoe Paulas had to

2492
01:55:49,000 --> 01:55:51,160
Speaker 2: cover them up just to thought you'd be interested in

2493
01:55:51,200 --> 01:55:53,480
Speaker 2: Thank you, Gary, He said, he loves our show. Thank

2494
01:55:53,520 --> 01:55:56,000
Speaker 2: you very much. Gary Deborde says that and he cleared

2495
01:55:56,040 --> 01:55:58,040
Speaker 2: it up so there we go. But right now it's

2496
01:55:58,120 --> 01:56:01,920
Speaker 2: time for the playing game. You ruin me, it's all

2497
01:56:02,000 --> 01:56:04,360
Speaker 2: your fault, No, it's your fault.

2498
01:56:04,520 --> 01:56:08,240
Speaker 1: What's is all your fault?

2499
01:56:09,320 --> 01:56:12,640
Speaker 2: Maybe it's everyone's fault. Who's a liar?

2500
01:56:12,840 --> 01:56:15,120
Speaker 5: That's why there's the blame game.

2501
01:56:15,200 --> 01:56:18,880
Speaker 2: Let's figure out who to blame. You're a liar, Patty,

2502
01:56:18,920 --> 01:56:19,600
Speaker 2: You're a liar.

2503
01:56:20,160 --> 01:56:22,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know what, Let's blame me today, everybody. Let's

2504
01:56:22,840 --> 01:56:26,320
Speaker 1: blame me. What Let's find out who else to blame? Everybody?

2505
01:56:26,320 --> 01:56:30,320
Speaker 7: So Draymond Green's behaviors on the court, real or performance.

2506
01:56:30,760 --> 01:56:32,760
Speaker 7: As we've been talking earlier in the hour, who do

2507
01:56:32,800 --> 01:56:34,240
Speaker 7: you blame? Andy Furman?

2508
01:56:34,640 --> 01:56:36,880
Speaker 2: You gotta blame Draymond because he did it. But I

2509
01:56:36,920 --> 01:56:38,640
Speaker 2: love him to death. He's good for the league, and

2510
01:56:38,680 --> 01:56:41,120
Speaker 2: he's a good person. He's a family man. He's a

2511
01:56:41,120 --> 01:56:45,040
Speaker 2: Hall of Famer. Get off his back. Tom islwri you

2512
01:56:45,120 --> 01:56:48,200
Speaker 2: to defend him. Steve Curry, you talk about everything and anything,

2513
01:56:48,400 --> 01:56:50,680
Speaker 2: but you never talk about Draymond. Think about that. He

2514
01:56:51,000 --> 01:56:54,200
Speaker 2: talks about politics. He talks about the election. Steve Kurr's

2515
01:56:54,240 --> 01:56:58,959
Speaker 2: there for everybody and everything except this guy, Draymond. Come on, Steve, who.

2516
01:57:00,960 --> 01:57:01,280
Speaker 7: I mean?

2517
01:57:01,440 --> 01:57:04,760
Speaker 3: Look, I'll blame Draymond for just his inability to be

2518
01:57:04,760 --> 01:57:07,360
Speaker 3: able to keep his motions in contract in moments like

2519
01:57:07,440 --> 01:57:09,240
Speaker 3: the technical files and stuff are ridiculous.

2520
01:57:09,240 --> 01:57:11,919
Speaker 4: And he's proven that he knows the difference between.

2521
01:57:11,680 --> 01:57:13,800
Speaker 3: When he can turn up and went not to because

2522
01:57:14,160 --> 01:57:16,920
Speaker 3: in Game seven against the Rockets he didn't engage in that.

2523
01:57:17,000 --> 01:57:18,680
Speaker 3: So this is a Draymond thing as well.

2524
01:57:19,400 --> 01:57:22,040
Speaker 1: All right, like it? Like it? Well, we're gonna stick

2525
01:57:22,080 --> 01:57:23,360
Speaker 1: in the NBA for this one, guys.

2526
01:57:23,600 --> 01:57:28,320
Speaker 7: So why can't the Pacers Tyrese Haliburton perform his celebratory

2527
01:57:28,480 --> 01:57:30,880
Speaker 7: dance to celebrate after a game on the court.

2528
01:57:31,160 --> 01:57:33,200
Speaker 1: Who do you blame, Bucky Brooks?

2529
01:57:34,040 --> 01:57:37,360
Speaker 3: Well, I blame Sam Casseil because it's an original Sam

2530
01:57:37,400 --> 01:57:41,880
Speaker 3: Cassil's And it's what like Andy, you talked about the

2531
01:57:41,920 --> 01:57:45,280
Speaker 3: hangy downs. You can't show people the hangy downs on TV.

2532
01:57:45,720 --> 01:57:48,600
Speaker 3: And so when he hit the shot that symbol, what

2533
01:57:48,760 --> 01:57:51,640
Speaker 3: he was pantomiming was showing them, hey, look at my

2534
01:57:51,680 --> 01:57:54,760
Speaker 3: hangy downs. I got big hany downs and no one

2535
01:57:54,760 --> 01:57:55,800
Speaker 3: wants to see that on TV.

2536
01:57:56,280 --> 01:57:57,760
Speaker 2: Well, I can't do that because I don't have big

2537
01:57:57,800 --> 01:58:00,160
Speaker 2: hangy downs. But I will say this, Adam still, but

2538
01:58:00,160 --> 01:58:03,000
Speaker 2: there's not big hanging downs. Either, let them celebrate, let

2539
01:58:03,040 --> 01:58:05,800
Speaker 2: them know it. The National Football League celebrates, they're jumping

2540
01:58:05,840 --> 01:58:08,400
Speaker 2: into the vats of water and whatever they do they have.

2541
01:58:08,480 --> 01:58:12,600
Speaker 2: The touchdown celebration is good. It's fun, it's entertainment. You know.

2542
01:58:12,760 --> 01:58:15,000
Speaker 2: Maybe he got smaller hanging downs than he could do it.

2543
01:58:15,120 --> 01:58:20,200
Speaker 2: That's the key, right, Maybe that's I didn't I love

2544
01:58:20,280 --> 01:58:22,880
Speaker 2: Bucky Brooks. I didn't measure the size of Hawll the

2545
01:58:22,960 --> 01:58:25,800
Speaker 2: Burton's hanking downs. And I'm not staring at the meaning there, Okay,

2546
01:58:25,960 --> 01:58:26,640
Speaker 2: just to let you know.

2547
01:58:27,840 --> 01:58:29,520
Speaker 3: I mean, I'm glad you're not staring at him, but

2548
01:58:29,600 --> 01:58:31,920
Speaker 3: that's part of you's just letting the world know that

2549
01:58:31,960 --> 01:58:34,640
Speaker 3: I got big onions, big hanging down.

2550
01:58:34,680 --> 01:58:40,040
Speaker 7: Gig Well, speaking of of something that needs big onions

2551
01:58:40,080 --> 01:58:43,720
Speaker 7: in food here, guys, Chick fil A has the concessions

2552
01:58:43,760 --> 01:58:47,320
Speaker 7: in Atlanta for the Falcons, which is great. However, they're

2553
01:58:47,360 --> 01:58:50,280
Speaker 7: closed on Sundays. Who do you play, many Furman.

2554
01:58:50,480 --> 01:58:52,440
Speaker 2: This is the most ridiculous thing in the whelp because

2555
01:58:52,440 --> 01:58:55,080
Speaker 2: if you got to or Atlanta Falcon game, they have

2556
01:58:55,160 --> 01:58:58,160
Speaker 2: the concessions at the stadium, but they're closed on Sunday,

2557
01:58:58,200 --> 01:58:59,960
Speaker 2: so you can't get a Chick fil a chicken sandwich,

2558
01:59:00,120 --> 01:59:02,600
Speaker 2: which I love. I love Chick fil A. It's the

2559
01:59:02,680 --> 01:59:04,880
Speaker 2: silliest thing I gotta blame. I hate to say this.

2560
01:59:04,960 --> 01:59:07,480
Speaker 2: Maybe the Pope can change it. Maybe the new Pope,

2561
01:59:07,520 --> 01:59:10,240
Speaker 2: Pope Louis the fourteenth, maybe he could change it. Because

2562
01:59:10,360 --> 01:59:12,920
Speaker 2: it has to do the religious factor, because I think

2563
01:59:12,960 --> 01:59:15,320
Speaker 2: the ownership of Chick fil A is very religious and

2564
01:59:15,360 --> 01:59:18,320
Speaker 2: they're closed on Sundays, I believe, So maybe that's maybe

2565
01:59:18,360 --> 01:59:21,120
Speaker 2: the Pope could Could the Pope change it because he's

2566
01:59:21,160 --> 01:59:23,600
Speaker 2: a sports fan, he's a White Sox fan. Maybe he

2567
01:59:23,600 --> 01:59:24,280
Speaker 2: could change it.

2568
01:59:25,560 --> 01:59:27,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know if he can change it because

2569
01:59:27,640 --> 01:59:29,760
Speaker 3: Chick fil A has always been closed on Sundays. So

2570
01:59:29,840 --> 01:59:32,240
Speaker 3: you're not going to get a Chick fil A Sandwichedda

2571
01:59:32,280 --> 01:59:32,800
Speaker 3: Falcons game.

2572
01:59:32,840 --> 01:59:35,040
Speaker 2: It's not gonna happen unless you bring it from Saturday

2573
01:59:35,080 --> 01:59:35,840
Speaker 2: to sneak it in.

2574
01:59:36,480 --> 01:59:38,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, you have to go to the year. You have

2575
01:59:38,240 --> 01:59:39,200
Speaker 4: to bring it in your own back.

2576
01:59:39,280 --> 01:59:41,120
Speaker 3: But the clearbacks are not going to allow you to

2577
01:59:41,160 --> 01:59:43,280
Speaker 3: sneak in Chick fil A.

2578
01:59:43,280 --> 01:59:43,640
Speaker 1: All right?

2579
01:59:43,760 --> 01:59:46,240
Speaker 7: Last one, guys, Steph Curry out and hurt for the

2580
01:59:46,240 --> 01:59:47,920
Speaker 7: Golden State Warriors in the playoffs.

2581
01:59:48,120 --> 01:59:50,920
Speaker 1: Who do you blame? Final blame Bucky, who do you blame?

2582
01:59:52,280 --> 01:59:54,879
Speaker 3: Oh? I mean, he can't blame anybody, poor little hamstring

2583
01:59:54,880 --> 01:59:56,720
Speaker 3: from Steph. I gotta blame him for getting hurt. But

2584
01:59:56,800 --> 01:59:59,280
Speaker 3: they need him. The trainer's got to bring him back.

2585
02:00:00,120 --> 02:00:02,280
Speaker 2: See that's not true, Bucky. You could always blame somebody

2586
02:00:02,320 --> 02:00:05,280
Speaker 2: for everything. There's always a blame, there's always a finger pointing.

2587
02:00:05,400 --> 02:00:08,640
Speaker 2: You blame Adam Silva. The freaking schedules too long. That's

2588
02:00:08,640 --> 02:00:10,880
Speaker 2: why he got hurt. Really, I would have loved to

2589
02:00:10,920 --> 02:00:12,400
Speaker 2: see him play next
