10
00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:29,160

Speaker 3: If you're with us.

38
00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:59,760
Speaker 1: Last hour, I talked about how that read in particular,

39
00:01:59,840 --> 00:02:02,320
Speaker 1: is going to get me an FCC violation before the event.

40
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:05,760
Speaker 2: Literally, you know, say it five times to ass uh.

41
00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:07,360
Speaker 2: I can't believe I made it through?

42
00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:07,920
Speaker 3: Did you? Did?

43
00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:10,320
Speaker 2: You did a fantastic tribulations and did.

44
00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:12,079
Speaker 1: A fantastic job. You know, you never you never really

45
00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:14,480
Speaker 1: realized what goes into this until you're in the host

46
00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:16,640
Speaker 1: chair and you're like, okay, all right, I gotta do

47
00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:19,600
Speaker 1: these reheats, all right, I want to get to for

48
00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:24,079
Speaker 1: everything that's going on right now. The NFL said, all right,

49
00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:28,000
Speaker 1: like count us in more importantly or more specifically Derek Carr.

50
00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:30,480
Speaker 1: So that count me in because Derek Carr, now apparently

51
00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:33,840
Speaker 1: quarterback of the Neworleans Saints, is dealing with a shoulder

52
00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:37,359
Speaker 1: injury that casts doubt on his availability for the twenty

53
00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:40,440
Speaker 1: twenty five season. Now, if you'll recall, his twenty twenty

54
00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:43,359
Speaker 1: four season was cut short with injury. Also, I don't

55
00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:46,120
Speaker 1: understand how you pop up with a shoulder injury at

56
00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:48,080
Speaker 1: this point of the off season when you're not even

57
00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:51,320
Speaker 1: on the field with the coaches and going through practices.

58
00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:55,239
Speaker 1: Both sides are apparently mulling surgery quote unquote. This is

59
00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:58,520
Speaker 1: all reported by the you know, the usual suspects, the insiders,

60
00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:01,600
Speaker 1: Ian Rappaport, Adam Schefter, Diana and in fact, Diana Orsini

61
00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:03,480
Speaker 1: said that there's a lot of people around the league,

62
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:07,440
Speaker 1: as myself as well as myself wondering if there's more

63
00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:09,320
Speaker 1: to this story.

64
00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:11,840
Speaker 2: Right, And that was my first reaction to this story

65
00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:16,520
Speaker 2: was how peculiar the timing of a news drop like this, right,

66
00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:20,919
Speaker 2: because I don't I would be a fool to think

67
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:23,639
Speaker 2: that Derek Carr's going through motions that would all of

68
00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:27,160
Speaker 2: a sudden aggravate or put it, you know, put up

69
00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:30,400
Speaker 2: for question the need for a surgery like this.

70
00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:33,560
Speaker 1: So why now, why now, where did it come from?

71
00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:36,560
Speaker 1: How in the world did you not know about this prior?

72
00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:39,080
Speaker 1: You can't like these Saints don't have an out in

73
00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:41,120
Speaker 1: Derek Carr's contract. They pushed a bunch of money down

74
00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:43,880
Speaker 1: the line so that his dead cap this year is

75
00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:46,840
Speaker 1: absolutely unsustainable, especially if you're the New Orleans Saints, who

76
00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:51,160
Speaker 1: are just perpetually in cap hell every single year. This

77
00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:54,480
Speaker 1: would But now, all of a sudden, it's mid April

78
00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:57,520
Speaker 1: and you may need a quarterback. They have Spencer Rattler, which,

79
00:03:57,560 --> 00:03:59,920
Speaker 1: if you believe in you, if you're very online term

80
00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:02,720
Speaker 1: online like I am, there was some talk about the

81
00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:06,360
Speaker 1: agenda where there was a contingent of Saints fans that

82
00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:07,280
Speaker 1: wanted Spencer.

83
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:08,600
Speaker 3: Ratler to start over Derek Carr.

84
00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:11,680
Speaker 1: He might have the chance to now, just because Derek

85
00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:14,760
Speaker 1: Carr may not be available after all. It completely kind

86
00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:17,440
Speaker 1: of changes the landscape of then how we look at

87
00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:19,919
Speaker 1: the first round of the draft, because the Saints have

88
00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:23,080
Speaker 1: a top ten pick. But if you're talking about like

89
00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:25,359
Speaker 1: if you assume cam Ward goes to the Tennessee Titans,

90
00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:28,599
Speaker 1: then you have Shadura Sanders, who has your quarterback two

91
00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:31,159
Speaker 1: pretty much or I mean, you could argue for Jackson

92
00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:35,240
Speaker 1: Dart I suppose, but quarterback two is kind of widely

93
00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:39,160
Speaker 1: accepted to be Shadura Sanders. He has to clear now

94
00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:42,320
Speaker 1: multiple teams that could possibly need a quarterback on his

95
00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:45,240
Speaker 1: way down to nine. And if that's the case, and

96
00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:47,600
Speaker 1: now you're set, if you're New Orleans on drafting Shadore,

97
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:49,680
Speaker 1: now you have to talk about a trade up, right,

98
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:52,919
Speaker 1: So that's it changes the entire landscape now of the

99
00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:53,559
Speaker 1: first round.

100
00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:56,560
Speaker 2: It's fascinating, truly. I know you mentioned New Orleans has

101
00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:59,400
Speaker 2: a top ten pick, and top ten being their ninth

102
00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:02,720
Speaker 2: r there is a lot of things that would have

103
00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:06,119
Speaker 2: to go their way for Schaudur to ultimately fall to ninth,

104
00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:10,000
Speaker 2: So I would expect them to be aggressive.

105
00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:13,479
Speaker 1: They haven't drafted a quarterback in the first round. The

106
00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:15,479
Speaker 1: Saints have not in fifty four years.

107
00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:17,080
Speaker 3: Wow, they haven't done.

108
00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:19,200
Speaker 1: Because if anything, I think a lot of people like

109
00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:20,839
Speaker 1: if you if you think back to the whole Drew

110
00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:23,320
Speaker 1: Brees thing, like they didn't draft Drew Brees. They traded

111
00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:25,280
Speaker 1: for him, so for as good of a quarterback as

112
00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:27,559
Speaker 1: he ended up being for them, they did not draft

113
00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:28,159
Speaker 1: Drew Brees.

114
00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:30,680
Speaker 3: So it's it's it.

115
00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:34,040
Speaker 1: Changes everything when it comes to talking about even like

116
00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:38,200
Speaker 1: the top five picks, and yeah, staying at nine, even

117
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:41,120
Speaker 1: though I don't think any of us, I guess if

118
00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:43,520
Speaker 1: you're signing value, think of Shadar Sanders as a top

119
00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:46,520
Speaker 1: ten pick. We know quarterbacks rise based on need, and

120
00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:49,000
Speaker 1: now there are multiple teams in the top ten before

121
00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:51,000
Speaker 1: that number nine pick that the Saints have that could

122
00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:53,800
Speaker 1: need a quarterback or could take a quarterback, and you

123
00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:55,440
Speaker 1: have to get creative if you're the New Land Saints.

124
00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:56,920
Speaker 3: At this point that.

125
00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:59,359
Speaker 2: Being said, I was going to run you through a

126
00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:03,280
Speaker 2: little drill here. Oh and I was gonna say, let's

127
00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:08,599
Speaker 2: do for kicks and giggles, a fun little moment. Yeah,

128
00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:11,760
Speaker 2: I'm learning quickly. I maybe late to the ship station,

129
00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:16,560
Speaker 2: but that one, hey, so I was I was thinking

130
00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:18,680
Speaker 2: it'd be fun to go through, you know, a top

131
00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:20,040
Speaker 2: five mock draft.

132
00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:22,880
Speaker 3: It is the season. I've already done a bunch of mocks.

133
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:27,039
Speaker 2: So's you're gonna make you, Carmen, the GM of each

134
00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:28,880
Speaker 2: of these teams. And I'm going to put you on

135
00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:31,120
Speaker 2: the clock. And you can even tell me if you

136
00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:33,760
Speaker 2: think there's gonna be a movement and you know, hey,

137
00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:37,760
Speaker 2: maybe instead of the Pats that four were getting the Saints.

138
00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:44,680
Speaker 2: But let's let's proceed forward on the beats. All right,

139
00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:49,200
Speaker 2: Welcome to the twenty twenty five Fox Sports Radio Mock Draft.

140
00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:53,560
Speaker 2: Carmen Vitali with the number one overall pick. The Tennessee

141
00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:55,320
Speaker 2: Titans are on the clock.

142
00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:58,320
Speaker 1: And they should not need this full time to arrive

143
00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:02,040
Speaker 1: at the conclusion that they're takingquarterback cam Ward from Miami.

144
00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:05,920
Speaker 1: This is kind of a foregone conclusion. Tennessee needs the quarterback.

145
00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:08,280
Speaker 1: For as much smoke as there's been of like, oh well,

146
00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:09,880
Speaker 1: maybe they'll trade down and they just want to drive

147
00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:12,600
Speaker 1: the price up of the first overall pick. You don't

148
00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:15,520
Speaker 1: have any other contingency plan. And I truly do believe

149
00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:18,920
Speaker 1: that even if you know you had a better quarterback class,

150
00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:21,160
Speaker 1: cam Ward is still going to be a great plan.

151
00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:23,760
Speaker 3: Yes, Okay, so cam Ward.

152
00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:29,360
Speaker 2: Quarterback sign seal delivered and with number two, the Cleveland

153
00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:33,720
Speaker 2: Browns are selecting Travis Hunter. Travis Hunter, do.

154
00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:37,080
Speaker 1: You quarterback slash wide receiver out of the University of Colorado?

155
00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:39,800
Speaker 2: Do I think he's going to be playing both ways

156
00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:40,679
Speaker 2: in the NFL?

157
00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:42,920
Speaker 1: So I think it's interesting because I don't know how

158
00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:44,560
Speaker 1: to stay like there's a reason we haven't seen that

159
00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:47,120
Speaker 1: and like in a long time, right, and you think

160
00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:49,960
Speaker 1: of the era where this was, this did happen when

161
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:52,800
Speaker 1: you talk about like.

162
00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:55,240
Speaker 3: The NFL wasn't what it is now.

163
00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:57,920
Speaker 1: As far as the preparation, as far as how many

164
00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:00,760
Speaker 1: process science, I do really that they don't do two

165
00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:05,440
Speaker 1: a days anymore in training camp. But if you think

166
00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:08,280
Speaker 1: about the season itself and just how kind of regimented

167
00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:11,840
Speaker 1: everything is between the meetings and all of that, it's

168
00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:14,960
Speaker 1: not just the stamina that Travis Hunter would need to

169
00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:17,760
Speaker 1: play both ways. It's also the mental side of things,

170
00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:20,920
Speaker 1: because there is a huge jump from the college game

171
00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:22,800
Speaker 1: to the NFL game. Firs as similar as they look

172
00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:26,880
Speaker 1: on paper, playing them, any player will tell you there

173
00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:28,960
Speaker 1: is a grace period you need, There is a learning

174
00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:32,080
Speaker 1: curve that you have trying to get used to NFL competition,

175
00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:34,480
Speaker 1: to the NFL playbook, to the way coaches want you

176
00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:38,559
Speaker 1: to play. And for that reason, I think it's extremely

177
00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:42,640
Speaker 1: hard in today's NFL to have a true two way player. Now,

178
00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:44,800
Speaker 1: does that mean that he won't play on both sides

179
00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:46,960
Speaker 1: with the ball? I don't think so. I think that

180
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:48,360
Speaker 1: would be just.

181
00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:51,600
Speaker 2: Maybe immediately right, let him get his feet under him.

182
00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:53,280
Speaker 2: Welcome to the league, young man.

183
00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:56,440
Speaker 1: You know, I think that the fact that he plays

184
00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:58,680
Speaker 1: mirroring positions, and I've talked about this before, where he

185
00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:01,600
Speaker 1: plays wide receiver, a cornerback, which mirror each other on

186
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:05,199
Speaker 1: the field, Playing each of those makes him better at

187
00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:07,360
Speaker 1: the other one. So being a corner and makes him

188
00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:09,520
Speaker 1: a better wide receiver. Being a wide receiver makes him

189
00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:12,280
Speaker 1: a better corner. And I do think that whatever team

190
00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:15,480
Speaker 1: gets him is going to use him primarily as a corner,

191
00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:19,360
Speaker 1: but have packages for him on offense because that is

192
00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:20,360
Speaker 1: such a fun.

193
00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:21,880
Speaker 2: It's so it's so awesome.

194
00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:25,000
Speaker 1: It's a cheat code that no one else has, right,

195
00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:27,600
Speaker 1: And so I do think that, like and then because

196
00:09:27,640 --> 00:09:30,160
Speaker 1: of that experience, I think that he can be And

197
00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:32,760
Speaker 1: I know Mina Kaimes has said this before too. He

198
00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:36,720
Speaker 1: can be a Pro Bowl caliber All Pro corner within

199
00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:38,600
Speaker 1: his first couple of years of the league because he

200
00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:42,160
Speaker 1: has that experience. So I think as soon as you possibly,

201
00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:44,000
Speaker 1: like any team possibly can That's why I think he's

202
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:46,360
Speaker 1: gonna go second. Like do the Cleveland Browns need a

203
00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:47,800
Speaker 1: corner yees shirt? Do they need a receiver?

204
00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:49,920
Speaker 3: Yes? Shirt? Do they need other things?

205
00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:53,479
Speaker 1: Absolutely, but you cannot pass on a player.

206
00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:55,600
Speaker 2: Like jobs Huer one of one. All right, love that

207
00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:57,760
Speaker 2: the pick is in? Okay, number three, the New York

208
00:09:57,800 --> 00:09:59,000
Speaker 2: Giants are on the clock.

209
00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:01,560
Speaker 1: We heard from Madeline who is the Giants team reporter

210
00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:04,200
Speaker 1: last hour, and she said, for as much as the

211
00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:07,199
Speaker 1: moves that they made getting James Winston Russell Wilson doesn't

212
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:09,599
Speaker 1: preclude them from maybe taking a quarterback at this a

213
00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:12,280
Speaker 1: number three overall, she does think there's a lot to

214
00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:16,520
Speaker 1: be said for the defense, and their owner John Marra said, yeah,

215
00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:18,560
Speaker 1: defense was not what we wanted it to be last year.

216
00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:22,880
Speaker 1: I am going with Abdul Carter, Penn State dresser. He

217
00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:26,760
Speaker 1: is I think the best player in this draft, which

218
00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:28,800
Speaker 1: again doesn't mean that he goes first overall. We know

219
00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:30,520
Speaker 1: that because of need and all of that other stuff.

220
00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:33,800
Speaker 1: But like I think Abdul Carter is an incredible player

221
00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:36,040
Speaker 1: and he's ready now.

222
00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:39,000
Speaker 2: So far, the Saints are looking okay, okay, all right,

223
00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:41,920
Speaker 2: So with the fourth overall pick, the New England Patriots,

224
00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:43,079
Speaker 2: They've got their quarterback.

225
00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:43,680
Speaker 3: They do.

226
00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:45,720
Speaker 1: And I love Drake May. I love Drake May. He

227
00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:48,880
Speaker 1: was one of my draft crushers last year. But here's

228
00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:51,360
Speaker 1: where I think things could get a little tricky, where

229
00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:53,760
Speaker 1: like maybe the Saints want to jump the Jets, for instance,

230
00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:55,320
Speaker 1: like outside of the top five, but like to get

231
00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:56,600
Speaker 1: into the top five to get shudder.

232
00:10:57,000 --> 00:10:58,800
Speaker 3: I think that the Patriots.

233
00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:00,880
Speaker 1: Given all the holes that they have, are one of

234
00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:03,560
Speaker 1: those teams that you could potentially see trading out. However,

235
00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:05,719
Speaker 1: I did not have them trading out. I just had

236
00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:08,679
Speaker 1: them taking defensive tackle Mason Graham out of Michigan.

237
00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:11,679
Speaker 2: They could be a potential, you know, willing partner to

238
00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:13,920
Speaker 2: dance with the Saints to rest.

239
00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:16,920
Speaker 1: But I just, I mean, I do think that Mason

240
00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:19,360
Speaker 1: Graham best defensive tackle in this class out of Michigan.

241
00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:22,800
Speaker 1: I think he's a phenomenal player. That Michigan defense in

242
00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:25,480
Speaker 1: general great great, Like there's a bunch of guys coming

243
00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:27,480
Speaker 1: out of Michigan this year. On the defensive side and

244
00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:29,439
Speaker 1: on the defensive line in particular, that are going to

245
00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:32,320
Speaker 1: be great players. Mason Graham, don't overthink it. He's going

246
00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:34,560
Speaker 1: to be a staple for that or for whatever organization

247
00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:35,040
Speaker 1: he goes to.

248
00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:37,320
Speaker 2: Perfect And for the fifth and final pick of our

249
00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:41,920
Speaker 2: mock draft, the Jacksonville Jaguars are on the clock.

250
00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:46,120
Speaker 1: So again you have Trevor Lawrence. For good, for better,

251
00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:50,200
Speaker 1: or for worse. You made that arrangement. He still needs

252
00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:53,200
Speaker 1: more protection. I feel like that offensive line needs a

253
00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:56,160
Speaker 1: lot of work, and this is not as good of

254
00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:58,120
Speaker 1: an offensive line class I think as people want it

255
00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:00,720
Speaker 1: to be. A lot of the guys are very and

256
00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:03,160
Speaker 1: it's pretty top heavy when it comes to those prospects.

257
00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:05,160
Speaker 1: So like, if you need an offensive lineman, you're gonna

258
00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:07,640
Speaker 1: have to spend a premium pick on getting him. A

259
00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:11,400
Speaker 1: guy I really like out of Missouri armand Membao. He

260
00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:14,839
Speaker 1: is offensive tackle. I think he's a true tackle. He's

261
00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:17,080
Speaker 1: going to be an excellent player. He's still a little

262
00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:19,440
Speaker 1: rough around the edge, is still a little raw. He

263
00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:22,600
Speaker 1: needs developing and that's where this new staff with Liam

264
00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:25,560
Speaker 1: Cohen in Tampa is going to have to step up

265
00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:29,800
Speaker 1: and develop him. But I think that going offensive line like,

266
00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:31,600
Speaker 1: you can't go wrong when you're trying to rebuild a

267
00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:36,120
Speaker 1: franchise or retool a franchise. I guess in the Jaguars case,

268
00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:38,079
Speaker 1: by going through the trenches.

269
00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:41,680
Speaker 2: So Vitally, I just learned more from you than I

270
00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:47,199
Speaker 2: have any of my reading. So I'm termally online.

271
00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:49,840
Speaker 1: I talked to a lot of people all of my

272
00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:52,760
Speaker 1: all of my opinions on things are usually vetted by

273
00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:55,360
Speaker 1: somebody that has direct knowledge of that situation.

274
00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:59,760
Speaker 2: So yeah, I can't wait. Also, just around the corner

275
00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:04,760
Speaker 2: six a lot of weeks, a couple weenty fourth period. Sorry, Okay,

276
00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:05,560
Speaker 2: all right.

277
00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:07,840

279
00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:13,439
Speaker 1: bit more Lakers, a little bit more Major League Baseball.

292
00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:00,640
Speaker 2: I was at the Los Angeles Lakers game as they

293
00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:04,199
Speaker 2: were taking on the Houston Rockets, a battle. If the

294
00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:07,040
Speaker 2: Lakers won, they got the three seed, which they did.

295
00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:10,080
Speaker 2: All was fine and dandy. I was there covering the

296
00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:12,600
Speaker 2: game with my coworker, Timothy Parker, and we were there

297
00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:17,320
Speaker 2: extraordinarily early because that was when our live hit for

298
00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:22,480
Speaker 2: the TV broadcast was and that is also when Lebron

299
00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:24,920
Speaker 2: James happens to be warming up. Right, it's a seven

300
00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:27,560
Speaker 2: thirty tip. This man is in a full lather and

301
00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:31,480
Speaker 2: sweat working out at four pm. Right, Love it, right,

302
00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:34,920
Speaker 2: love it. My friend Timothy, he said, I tried to

303
00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:37,160
Speaker 2: get in here to get Lebron's walk in see the

304
00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:39,720
Speaker 2: pregame fit. Even he was too.

305
00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:42,280
Speaker 1: He's one of the guys that's there like early, early

306
00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:45,000
Speaker 1: and getting himself yeah, ready to go all that.

307
00:14:45,040 --> 00:14:48,840
Speaker 2: To mention Lebron is working out without a shirt on.

308
00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:52,160
Speaker 2: I didn't think anything of it because, mind you, there

309
00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:55,520
Speaker 2: is no one else in the arena besides Timothy, myself

310
00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:59,240
Speaker 2: or photographer and Lebron's you know, the guy's helping him.

311
00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:02,360
Speaker 3: You know, yeah, exactly like the milk.

312
00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:06,000
Speaker 2: No one else is in there. Didn't think anything of it. Lebron,

313
00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:08,280
Speaker 2: you know, goes through his warm up, finishes with this

314
00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:09,880
Speaker 2: half court shots, free throws.

315
00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:10,240
Speaker 3: Bye.

316
00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:14,160
Speaker 2: It wasn't a thing until it became a thing when

317
00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:17,800
Speaker 2: Isaiah Thomas, who was on the NBA TV broadcast, decided

318
00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:23,880
Speaker 2: to rip into Lebron for working out without a shirt, saying,

319
00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:27,840
Speaker 2: what what is this league now? And I'm going to

320
00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:30,360
Speaker 2: lay out so you can hear the audio for yourself.

321
00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:32,600
Speaker 3: Shirts and skins is what they're.

322
00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:33,120
Speaker 4: Doing and everything.

323
00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:38,520
Speaker 5: I just totally one hundred percent object to this. And

324
00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:41,640
Speaker 5: if I was the GM of coache I would never

325
00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:44,520
Speaker 5: let one of my players walk out on the floor

326
00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:48,600
Speaker 5: looking like this. I mean, we are professional, n be

327
00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:49,640
Speaker 5: a league.

328
00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:53,760
Speaker 4: We ain't. We ain't summer league at the y MC as.

329
00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:56,640
Speaker 6: I think coaches got to go back to suits.

330
00:15:57,240 --> 00:15:59,920
Speaker 5: I just mean, absolutely, reslutely.

331
00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:06,880
Speaker 1: Uh Okay, Isaiah Thomas, sir, talking talking mess that sounds weird. Listen,

332
00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:13,040
Speaker 1: being grumpy and being bitter and resentful of the game superstars.

333
00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:14,760
Speaker 3: That does not sound like him. What's sop?

334
00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:14,960
Speaker 7: Oh?

335
00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:19,040
Speaker 2: Oh wow, how I'm brand Isaiah? No, the thing was

336
00:16:19,280 --> 00:16:22,160
Speaker 2: nobody was in the arena and that that man was

337
00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:24,120
Speaker 2: was doing what he needed to do to get ready

338
00:16:24,160 --> 00:16:30,240
Speaker 2: pregame and respectfully like Lebron's, Lebron's carried this league for I.

339
00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:32,040
Speaker 3: Sound like if I looked like that at forty one.

340
00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:37,760
Speaker 2: By all means I I was. I was a little

341
00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:40,880
Speaker 2: confused that that was the argument he chose to pick.

342
00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:44,960
Speaker 1: It doesn't make any any sense at all because like,

343
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:46,640
Speaker 1: who does this hurt whatsoever?

344
00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:46,880
Speaker 2: Like?

345
00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:49,280
Speaker 1: Right, this is about Lebron getting warmed up in the

346
00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:52,400
Speaker 1: way that he and like Lebron belongs to the old

347
00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:54,200
Speaker 1: school train of thoughts.

348
00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:55,560
Speaker 3: To me, because he's been in the league since.

349
00:16:55,520 --> 00:16:57,880
Speaker 2: He is the greatest star in the game, and he

350
00:16:57,960 --> 00:17:01,080
Speaker 2: is still full sweat, full workout, not taking the pregame

351
00:17:01,560 --> 00:17:06,439
Speaker 2: you know, preparation lightly. This man has invested everything into

352
00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:09,919
Speaker 2: his preparation and to be hung up on a detail

353
00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:12,639
Speaker 2: about a shirt when nobody else is in is in

354
00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:16,239
Speaker 2: the building is wild. I it's funny because it's like

355
00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:19,720
Speaker 2: I understand the you know, kind of angst that golf

356
00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:23,719
Speaker 2: fans felt over Jose's upside down hat at the at

357
00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:27,000
Speaker 2: the Masters. I get that kind of like, hey, let's

358
00:17:27,080 --> 00:17:31,480
Speaker 2: like dress up for the moment. Yeah, but Lebron James,

359
00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:33,879
Speaker 2: if you need to warm up without a shirt on

360
00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:36,560
Speaker 2: in an empty arena, by all means do so.

361
00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:39,879
Speaker 1: It's it doesn't make any sense to me that that,

362
00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:42,200
Speaker 1: Like I guess in a way, it's almost a form

363
00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:43,920
Speaker 1: of flattery because it's like if this is the only

364
00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:46,560
Speaker 1: thing you can pick a part about Lebron like at

365
00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:50,359
Speaker 1: this stage of his career, which it is, uh, and

366
00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:53,320
Speaker 1: I think didn't Lebron say not too long ago? Like

367
00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:56,320
Speaker 1: how NBA coverage is basically just like the old guard,

368
00:17:56,480 --> 00:18:00,200
Speaker 1: like making or like talking and hating on like current player.

369
00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:03,359
Speaker 2: That's one of my biggest gripes with coverage, like the

370
00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:07,640
Speaker 2: trashing from generation to generation. I mean, Lebron even went

371
00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:10,240
Speaker 2: in and said like that if Yannis played in the seventies,

372
00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:12,240
Speaker 2: he could score over two hundred. I forget what the

373
00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:15,480
Speaker 2: exact thing was, but it's like, dude, like the founding

374
00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:18,120
Speaker 2: fathers established this league, so you could have the platform

375
00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:20,080
Speaker 2: you have today, So let's not go back and say

376
00:18:20,080 --> 00:18:21,760
Speaker 2: we could have done this if we were you know.

377
00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:25,159
Speaker 2: And also from the founding fathers, you're not playing in

378
00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:27,280
Speaker 2: today's day and age, so it's it's.

379
00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:29,440
Speaker 3: Kind of a this just doesn't hurt anyone either.

380
00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:31,680
Speaker 1: And it's so funny too because coming from like I've

381
00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:34,720
Speaker 1: I've focused and covered the NFL for most of my

382
00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:38,879
Speaker 1: career and like, guys warm up in all states of

383
00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:43,000
Speaker 1: undressed to a not empty uh arena like arena by

384
00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:45,520
Speaker 1: the way, or like our stadium like all the time,

385
00:18:45,600 --> 00:18:47,679
Speaker 1: Like there's there's a thing with a bunch of the

386
00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:50,360
Speaker 1: guys I used to work with in Tampa players in Tampa,

387
00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:52,880
Speaker 1: like Tristanwurf's best left.

388
00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:53,680
Speaker 3: Tackle in the league.

389
00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:56,480
Speaker 1: He has a whole kind of posse crew and they

390
00:18:56,480 --> 00:18:59,120
Speaker 1: all go out on the field to do warm ups barefoot.

391
00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:02,640
Speaker 1: They have no shoes on ground, And like you have

392
00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:05,720
Speaker 1: guys You've David and Joku in Cleveland, who is warming

393
00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:08,120
Speaker 1: up without a shirt on in like minus seven degree brother,

394
00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:10,840
Speaker 1: Like there's this has never been a thing in like

395
00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:13,920
Speaker 1: any other sport. And I'm also like, I don't see

396
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:15,600
Speaker 1: basketball as stuffy as.

397
00:19:15,520 --> 00:19:18,320
Speaker 2: Golf, absolutely absolutely like golf.

398
00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:21,000
Speaker 3: Golf is one thing where the tradition matters. I get it.

399
00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:23,280
Speaker 1: There's a very certain way to do things and that

400
00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:25,920
Speaker 1: has been upheld throughout like every generation.

401
00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:29,680
Speaker 3: But the NBA is not golf. The NBA is way

402
00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:32,960
Speaker 3: more closely. It is quite the opposite, white the opposite.

403
00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:34,240
Speaker 3: I mean, I don't even see like.

404
00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:37,480
Speaker 1: I guess a lot of people aren't in the stadium

405
00:19:37,520 --> 00:19:40,120
Speaker 1: when you see like baseball players kind of playing catch

406
00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:42,000
Speaker 1: and doing things in the in the stadium before they

407
00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:43,440
Speaker 1: do games because they don't have practices either.

408
00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:44,919
Speaker 3: But like some of those guys, if.

409
00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:50,200
Speaker 2: You saw Clayton Kershaw's shirt during VP before games, he's

410
00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:53,480
Speaker 2: got the ripped far Oh yeah, he's got his hat

411
00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:56,600
Speaker 2: on a skew. He is just looking like the ultimate

412
00:19:57,119 --> 00:19:59,880
Speaker 2: dad on a mission, just hanging out with the guys.

413
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:02,479
Speaker 1: And for as traditional as baseball has been, I do

414
00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:06,000
Speaker 1: feel like baseball is kind of stepping into the moment

415
00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:08,880
Speaker 1: and trying to kind of up interest around Major League,

416
00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:10,919
Speaker 1: which is like something else now I wanted to get.

417
00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:11,920
Speaker 2: Into razzle dazzle.

418
00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:17,000
Speaker 1: Baseball is like meeting the moment very very well when

419
00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:19,000
Speaker 1: it comes to their marketing strategy, when it comes to

420
00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:20,960
Speaker 1: the changes they've made to the actual game.

421
00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:22,600
Speaker 3: The pitch clock coming in last.

422
00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:25,520
Speaker 1: Year, a couple of years old, bigger bases, Like you're

423
00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:28,680
Speaker 1: trying to bring offense back to all of this, and

424
00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:31,239
Speaker 1: the latest example of this now is the is the

425
00:20:31,280 --> 00:20:34,320
Speaker 1: torpedo bats. But like at the base of all of

426
00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:37,959
Speaker 1: this is innovation that is having to keep up with

427
00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:41,159
Speaker 1: each generation and keep up with the times. And I

428
00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:44,720
Speaker 1: don't think that that's a bad thing, and that across the.

429
00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:48,680
Speaker 2: Board for it's so interesting for a couple of years there,

430
00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:51,520
Speaker 2: I think it was like right after the pandemic and

431
00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:54,960
Speaker 2: it was like this like whole you know conundrum. Can

432
00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:57,879
Speaker 2: baseball stay relevant? Can it keep up with the NFL

433
00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:02,400
Speaker 2: and NBA. I think the pitch clock literally and figuratively

434
00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:05,639
Speaker 2: changed the game with interest and excitement for people to

435
00:21:05,640 --> 00:21:10,600
Speaker 2: be able to casually enjoy a game because there are

436
00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:13,960
Speaker 2: so many of them. But now you're making things quicker.

437
00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:17,679
Speaker 2: And yes, you mentioned the torpedo bats, which I'm going

438
00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:19,679
Speaker 2: to say it right here and now put it on

439
00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:22,240
Speaker 2: my put it on my tombstone. I like big bats,

440
00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:23,359
Speaker 2: and I cannot lie.

441
00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:28,439
Speaker 1: I don't want you to have I'm so tired of

442
00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:32,200
Speaker 1: like these these purists and traditionalists all over the place

443
00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:33,760
Speaker 1: just being like you're ruining.

444
00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:35,639
Speaker 3: The but but but no, you're not.

445
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:38,359
Speaker 1: You are making it more exciting so that more people

446
00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:41,440
Speaker 1: turn in, tune in, so that this game can sustain itself.

447
00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:44,200
Speaker 2: We want to see dingers, we want dingers.

448
00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:45,959
Speaker 1: Seekers, and we're not allowed to advocate for the use

449
00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:46,840
Speaker 1: of steroids anymore.

450
00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:48,639
Speaker 2: So dang it.

451
00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:54,200
Speaker 1: Now you've developed an innovation that completely legally ups the

452
00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:57,639
Speaker 1: offense that every team could use if they wanted to.

453
00:21:57,680 --> 00:22:00,680
Speaker 1: You've made it readily available for every team they want to.

454
00:22:01,080 --> 00:22:04,919
Speaker 1: I'm just like all of these conversations going back to Lebron,

455
00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:07,439
Speaker 1: going back to the Major League Baseball, it's just the

456
00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:09,560
Speaker 1: old guard not being able to let go.

457
00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:14,040
Speaker 2: And Okay, like, at the risk of sounding really, I mean,

458
00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:17,480
Speaker 2: I don't want to sound flippant, but like, how did

459
00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:20,560
Speaker 2: it take us this long to think of customized bats?

460
00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:24,240
Speaker 1: It took an MIT grad right to just make this

461
00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:26,320
Speaker 1: tea what more material?

462
00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:29,159
Speaker 3: I got all the place where the ball hits the back, right.

463
00:22:29,080 --> 00:22:32,000
Speaker 2: I got all in on torpedo bats. You know, basically,

464
00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:34,760
Speaker 2: for those of you who have not understood the science

465
00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:38,000
Speaker 2: behind it, they have customized where the mass of the

466
00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:44,240
Speaker 2: bat is in relation to each hitter's swing, and it's like, duh, groundbreaking.

467
00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:46,680
Speaker 2: We've got customized cleats, We've got customized gear.

468
00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:50,680
Speaker 1: I just people players already had the choice of bat

469
00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:53,399
Speaker 1: like within regulations obviously, but they had their own.

470
00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:55,520
Speaker 2: Choices aluminum, right metal.

471
00:22:55,680 --> 00:22:58,360
Speaker 1: I forget what there were rules that they had were by,

472
00:22:58,440 --> 00:22:59,600
Speaker 1: but they were already Yeah.

473
00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:01,320
Speaker 3: So I just I think innovation.

474
00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:04,560
Speaker 2: The pitching has gotten so good. So this is just

475
00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:09,359
Speaker 2: a little arms race moment. Let the batters. Let the batters,

476
00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:10,960
Speaker 2: you know, go to town.

477
00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:12,200
Speaker 3: Let the players.

478
00:23:12,359 --> 00:23:14,160
Speaker 2: I like bats, and I cannot lie.

479
00:23:14,320 --> 00:23:14,720
Speaker 3: I love that.

480
00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:17,760
Speaker 1: Let the players move the game forward and to move

481
00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:19,600
Speaker 1: the show forward. We're gonna check in with Martin.

482
00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:21,000
Speaker 2: White in the next transition.

483
00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:24,880
Speaker 8: All right, we got a little bit of action going

484
00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:27,639
Speaker 8: on their masters right now. Rory McElroy had like a

485
00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:30,359
Speaker 8: three shot lead, just a couple holes a go.

486
00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:33,200
Speaker 4: Now he's down to one. He's nine under.

487
00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:36,440
Speaker 8: Corey Connors and bryceon de Shamba breathing down his neck

488
00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:39,440
Speaker 8: at eight under, Ory's three under. For the day, they're

489
00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:42,280
Speaker 8: both he and Corey Connors through twelve holes to Shambo's

490
00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:45,480
Speaker 8: through eleven. There's like five guys tied for fourth at

491
00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:48,359
Speaker 8: sixth under right now most of those guys through at

492
00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:51,640
Speaker 8: least eleven holes, but again Rory had a three stroke lead.

493
00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:54,120
Speaker 4: Now it's down to just one.

494
00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:56,399
Speaker 8: In Major League Baseball, top of the seventh in the

495
00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:59,119
Speaker 8: Yankees doubling up the Giants eight to four. That was

496
00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:02,320
Speaker 8: on FS one top of the sixth, Blue Jays three,

497
00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:04,760
Speaker 8: Orioles two, bottom of the fifth, and in the A's

498
00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:08,159
Speaker 8: on the board two to nothing against the Mets bottom

499
00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:10,600
Speaker 8: of the fifth inning, raised two Braves nothing and the

500
00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:13,000
Speaker 8: bottom of the fifthing as well the Nationals, I'm sorry,

501
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:16,360
Speaker 8: the Marlins taking the lead here four to three and

502
00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:18,640
Speaker 8: the bottom of the fifth and in the Red Sox two,

503
00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:20,200
Speaker 8: White Sox nothing.

504
00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:22,840
Speaker 4: In the NHL, the Hurricanes.

505
00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:25,040
Speaker 8: Have a five to three lead over the Rangers with

506
00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:28,200
Speaker 8: ten to fifteen left in the third period. With six

507
00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:30,840
Speaker 8: fifty left in the second period, the Kings lead the

508
00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:32,280
Speaker 8: Avalanche three to two.

509
00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:32,720
Speaker 4: Again.

510
00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:36,679
Speaker 8: At the Masters, Rory McElroy through twelve holes has a

511
00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:40,280
Speaker 8: one stroke lead at nine under Corey Connors and bryceon

512
00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:43,800

Speaker 7: kind introduction here, We're off to a roaring start here.

524
00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:14,720
Speaker 7: Can't believe it.

525
00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:19,000
Speaker 3: I'm phenomenal. Thank you so much for joining us. I

526
00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:20,280
Speaker 3: want to first talk.

527
00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:23,600
Speaker 1: I was going we were gonna get right into NBA playoffs,

528
00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:28,280
Speaker 1: But uh, Nico, I am ala, I am ala, liva liaba,

529
00:25:28,480 --> 00:25:29,240
Speaker 1: I am aliaba.

530
00:25:29,440 --> 00:25:31,360
Speaker 2: There it is just a couple more vowels in there.

531
00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:34,920
Speaker 1: I know there's so many bewls, Tennessee. This whole thing, Mike,

532
00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:36,840
Speaker 1: You and I have talked about the nil stuff. We've

533
00:25:36,840 --> 00:25:38,720
Speaker 1: talked about kind of this new age, the wild West

534
00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:42,200
Speaker 1: of college football. Nico says, hey, I want a new deal.

535
00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:46,440
Speaker 1: I'm not playing until I get it, and then Tennessee goes, huh, fine, bye.

536
00:25:47,119 --> 00:25:49,439
Speaker 3: What are the ramifications of all of this? What are

537
00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:50,199
Speaker 3: your thoughts.

538
00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:53,639
Speaker 7: I think this is the first right, Like for a

539
00:25:53,640 --> 00:25:56,040
Speaker 7: lot of us that cover college sports and the NFL,

540
00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:59,679
Speaker 7: that sounds familiar what you just described right off season,

541
00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:02,600
Speaker 7: whole out with star player and team that ends with

542
00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:04,960
Speaker 7: them not reaching a deal and so the team decides

543
00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:07,159
Speaker 7: to release player. We see that all the time in

544
00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:10,760
Speaker 7: the NFL. With college the difference is on many friends one,

545
00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:13,879
Speaker 7: we haven't actually had holdouts before in college. This is

546
00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:15,760
Speaker 7: still part of the new age and the changes in

547
00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:18,760
Speaker 7: the sport. Obviously, with college football, one of the big

548
00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:22,240
Speaker 7: differences is there aren't long term contract structures like we

549
00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:24,639
Speaker 7: have in the NFL, and so you can have some

550
00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:28,240
Speaker 7: version of free agency every year. And that cuts both ways,

551
00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:30,960
Speaker 7: Right for Nico Yamaliaba, if I'm a quarterback who sees

552
00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:34,119
Speaker 7: a bunch of other big quarterback deals going out this offseason,

553
00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:36,920
Speaker 7: maybe feels like relative for a starter that helped his

554
00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:41,320
Speaker 7: team go into playoff contention last year, I'm underpaid. You

555
00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:42,720
Speaker 7: go in and you kick your feed up and you

556
00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:43,960
Speaker 7: ask for money, and you think it's going to be

557
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:46,159
Speaker 7: all great. But on the other side, for Tennessee, we're

558
00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:49,040
Speaker 7: getting to this point now where the scouting departments for

559
00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:52,159
Speaker 7: college teams have what essentially in the NFL would have

560
00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:55,800
Speaker 7: been a college scouting department aka their high school recruiting scouting,

561
00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:58,640
Speaker 7: and then a pro scouting department where you're in charge

562
00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:01,480
Speaker 7: of scouting the other teams. And so Yes, Niko and

563
00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:03,520
Speaker 7: all these quarterbacks that can be free agency for them

564
00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:06,480
Speaker 7: every year. But Tennessee also has access to a lot

565
00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:08,679
Speaker 7: of other quarterbacks in the portal every year because of that.

566
00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:12,000
Speaker 7: So if they decide, hey, we believe our quarterback that

567
00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:14,119
Speaker 7: we know and see every day and practicing in these

568
00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:16,760
Speaker 7: games is worth X amount of money and we're not

569
00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:19,000
Speaker 7: willing to go over that, They've got to have the

570
00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:21,879
Speaker 7: contingency plans in place, as does everyone else in college

571
00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:24,960
Speaker 7: sports right now, until we get more structure, you've always

572
00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:27,320
Speaker 7: kind of got to be looking over your shoulder trying

573
00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:29,320
Speaker 7: to figure out, hey, is one of the guys in

574
00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:31,040
Speaker 7: our team all of a sudden going to start to

575
00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:33,479
Speaker 7: value himself differently than we do, And do we have

576
00:27:33,560 --> 00:27:35,879
Speaker 7: a plan in place to go and try and counteract

577
00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:36,480
Speaker 7: that if he does.

578
00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:37,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's the other side of the corn.

579
00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:41,240
Speaker 2: So Mike, all that to say, I'm going to shift

580
00:27:41,320 --> 00:27:44,480
Speaker 2: gears here a little bit. As a fellow Swifty. I

581
00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:48,760
Speaker 2: have somewhat of a scenario i'd like you to help

582
00:27:48,800 --> 00:27:51,800
Speaker 2: me navigate through. Right. First of all, I'm watching Rory

583
00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:54,240
Speaker 2: McElroy at the top of the leaderboard and the words

584
00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:56,080
Speaker 2: that come to mind are I think I've seen this

585
00:27:56,119 --> 00:27:59,719
Speaker 2: film before and I didn't like the ending. So I'm

586
00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:04,040
Speaker 2: going to tup for you three NBA Western Conference teams,

587
00:28:04,040 --> 00:28:07,320
Speaker 2: and I want you to give me their Taylor Swift era, Okay,

588
00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:10,199
Speaker 2: because I'm thinking the Oklahoma City Thunder are in their

589
00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:13,280
Speaker 2: nineteen eighty nine era right now, right, so I want

590
00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:15,920
Speaker 2: you to give me the respective eras you are feeling

591
00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:20,320
Speaker 2: for the vibes of the Golden State Warriors, the Denver Nuggets,

592
00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:23,760
Speaker 2: and the Los Angeles Clippers. What era, what album matches

593
00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:24,840
Speaker 2: their moment right now?

594
00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:28,920
Speaker 7: Ooh, all right, let's start with the Denver Nuggets here.

595
00:28:29,040 --> 00:28:31,800
Speaker 7: So a team definitely going through a little bit of

596
00:28:31,800 --> 00:28:35,119
Speaker 7: turmoil right now. The edges up for everyone. You've got

597
00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:37,800
Speaker 7: Nikal Jokic coming out and saying, hey, where I'm from.

598
00:28:37,800 --> 00:28:40,880
Speaker 7: When the coach gets fired, usually you're next on the list,

599
00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:42,520
Speaker 7: and so everyone's got to kind of play with that

600
00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:45,240
Speaker 7: sense of urgency. Here feels like we could be getting

601
00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:46,960
Speaker 7: the reputation nuggets.

602
00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:48,920
Speaker 2: Now, right, Look what you made Jokic do?

603
00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:52,880
Speaker 7: Yeah, look what you made Jokic do. And if we

604
00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:54,960
Speaker 7: know anything, it's you don't want to challenge and put

605
00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:57,000
Speaker 7: Taylor swifts back against the wall. And I don't know

606
00:28:57,000 --> 00:28:58,960
Speaker 7: if i'd want to do that with Nikola Jokic either.

607
00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:02,080
Speaker 3: R Russell Westbrook, I'd say.

608
00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:05,800
Speaker 7: A reputation era for them for Golden State. This is

609
00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:08,280
Speaker 7: kind of tough because you've got a team where, hey,

610
00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:11,040
Speaker 7: maybe their best days are behind them right now, but

611
00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:14,160
Speaker 7: they've got a little bit of an infusion of life

612
00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:16,640
Speaker 7: around the trade deadline with Jimmy Butler. They're on the

613
00:29:16,760 --> 00:29:18,920
Speaker 7: edge of the postseason right now, big game against the

614
00:29:18,920 --> 00:29:21,240
Speaker 7: Clippers coming up to try and decide what their playoff

615
00:29:21,280 --> 00:29:24,840
Speaker 7: seeding is going to look like. And so, hmmm, I'll say,

616
00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:28,360
Speaker 7: I'll say tortured Poets Department here is because you've got

617
00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:31,240
Speaker 7: step Curry with the throbbing thumb that he's dealing with

618
00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:33,760
Speaker 7: going into this game right now. Probably and I would say,

619
00:29:33,800 --> 00:29:36,680
Speaker 7: like tortured Poets Department. It's been a pretty long run

620
00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:38,520
Speaker 7: in the lead up to this. It was a long album,

621
00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:40,760
Speaker 7: but better than it gets credit for. And I think

622
00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:43,160
Speaker 7: right now the Golden State Warriors at this point in

623
00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:45,360
Speaker 7: the back half of the season have maybe been better

624
00:29:45,400 --> 00:29:47,240
Speaker 7: than they got credit for in the midway point.

625
00:29:47,720 --> 00:29:49,680
Speaker 2: I love that so much. I was thinking the same

626
00:29:49,720 --> 00:29:52,000
Speaker 2: And then and then give me one for Clippers. Who

627
00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:54,040
Speaker 2: do you have? You know, the resurgence of Kawhi is

628
00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:57,640
Speaker 2: healthy kind of underrated, the Clippers flying under the radar?

629
00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:00,320
Speaker 7: Uh you know what, if we're going to talk about

630
00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:03,120
Speaker 7: under the radar and underrated, I'll give them lover Era.

631
00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:06,680
Speaker 7: Then we got robbed of lover Fest because of the pandemic.

632
00:30:06,720 --> 00:30:08,680
Speaker 7: It's an album that's got a bunch of hits on it.

633
00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:10,560
Speaker 7: And then if we had, you know, gone back and

634
00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:13,320
Speaker 7: put out different singles and maybe you have that situation

635
00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:15,760
Speaker 7: with you know, Cruel Summer where you've got the banger

636
00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:17,600
Speaker 7: of the Summer, it would have been different. But it's not.

637
00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:18,400
Speaker 9: That's like will we.

638
00:30:18,360 --> 00:30:20,640
Speaker 7: Won't be about why Leonard injuries and said, what we've

639
00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:22,200
Speaker 7: got us here and now in a team that like

640
00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:24,440
Speaker 7: that album, May your right be flying a little bit

641
00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:26,520
Speaker 7: under the radar, And that's okay because in the right

642
00:30:26,560 --> 00:30:28,320
Speaker 7: circumstances it can still go off.

643
00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:32,480
Speaker 2: Mike I Carmen's shaking her edge. It's all lost on

644
00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:36,320
Speaker 2: her right over smiling ear to air because those were

645
00:30:36,320 --> 00:30:39,320
Speaker 2: the exact three albums I had pinned, so nailed it.

646
00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:42,080
Speaker 3: You've got range.

647
00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:45,080
Speaker 1: Let no one say that that Michael Junior does not

648
00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:50,600
Speaker 1: have range. I we haven't given our due to the

649
00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:52,480
Speaker 1: East at all. So I want to ask you a

650
00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:54,440
Speaker 1: little bit about the East because we've talked a lot

651
00:30:54,480 --> 00:30:56,680
Speaker 1: about the West. Rightfully so too, because that's kind of

652
00:30:56,680 --> 00:30:59,080
Speaker 1: where all the drama lies and has all Susan long.

653
00:30:59,280 --> 00:31:01,520
Speaker 1: You've got the ten seeds all locked up in the

654
00:31:01,560 --> 00:31:04,720
Speaker 1: East already, and basically you have for the last few months.

655
00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:07,080
Speaker 1: I don't think there was really any surprises there. But

656
00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:10,320
Speaker 1: you've got the top two seeds battling it out with.

657
00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:13,120
Speaker 1: You've got Cleveland has the best record. You've got Boston

658
00:31:13,160 --> 00:31:15,680
Speaker 1: though you know they're the raining champs. There's I feel

659
00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:18,600
Speaker 1: like still kind of the favorites in a lot of ways.

660
00:31:18,760 --> 00:31:20,520
Speaker 1: You've got the Knicks, who are fiightying fun.

661
00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:22,680
Speaker 3: What do you see? How do you see this playing

662
00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:23,400
Speaker 3: out in the East.

663
00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:27,280
Speaker 7: Yeah, until further notice, you're going to have to prove

664
00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:30,160
Speaker 7: it for me with anyone other than the Boston Celtics.

665
00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:34,160
Speaker 7: No disrespect the Cleveland Cavaliers, long incredibly rangy defensive team.

666
00:31:34,280 --> 00:31:37,360
Speaker 7: Donovan Mitchell's got that game breaker ability to them, all

667
00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:39,520
Speaker 7: things they've proven over the long body of work of

668
00:31:39,560 --> 00:31:41,680
Speaker 7: this season. But now you get to this time of year,

669
00:31:41,680 --> 00:31:44,720
Speaker 7: whereas everyone always talks about, everything gets pretty different here.

670
00:31:44,720 --> 00:31:46,600
Speaker 7: The game planning changes when all of a sudden it's

671
00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:49,080
Speaker 7: the best of seven series. You're locked in more defensively.

672
00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:51,560
Speaker 7: And Boston is a team that's got the medal at

673
00:31:51,560 --> 00:31:53,720
Speaker 7: this time of year that remember, isn't just a flash

674
00:31:53,720 --> 00:31:55,120
Speaker 7: in the pan from when they won it last year.

675
00:31:55,120 --> 00:31:55,880
Speaker 4: They didn't built.

676
00:31:55,680 --> 00:31:58,960
Speaker 7: Towards that moment over a long time. The Knicks, unfortunately,

677
00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:01,480
Speaker 7: they've been a lot of fun, But that's a team

678
00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:03,560
Speaker 7: that seems to have had a lid in terms of

679
00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:06,000
Speaker 7: their performance against the top end competition, both in the

680
00:32:06,040 --> 00:32:08,800
Speaker 7: East and the West. So I have questions about their limitations.

681
00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:11,560
Speaker 7: Obviously everyone's going to focus on TIBs in the minutes

682
00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:14,000
Speaker 7: and all that stuff, but it's more than that. The

683
00:32:14,080 --> 00:32:17,480
Speaker 7: exciting team to me would be the Detroit Pistons, considering

684
00:32:17,480 --> 00:32:19,600
Speaker 7: what they've done during the course of the regular season,

685
00:32:20,480 --> 00:32:22,800
Speaker 7: young upstart team that's been for a lot of this

686
00:32:22,880 --> 00:32:26,400
Speaker 7: year because Milwaukee obviously the Dame stuffs complicated that. That's

687
00:32:26,400 --> 00:32:28,040
Speaker 7: been a team that's sort of been kind of in

688
00:32:28,080 --> 00:32:30,600
Speaker 7: the middle ground all year long, and so the East,

689
00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:33,000
Speaker 7: you're right, gets kind of put in the background because

690
00:32:33,200 --> 00:32:35,000
Speaker 7: I do think the picture is a little bit more

691
00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:37,840
Speaker 7: stable there. That feels like a two team race where

692
00:32:37,960 --> 00:32:40,680
Speaker 7: we might have some fun NCAA March Madness style in

693
00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:43,320
Speaker 7: the first round or two, but ultimately it's going to

694
00:32:43,320 --> 00:32:45,960
Speaker 7: be Boston and Cleveland, and I think until further notice,

695
00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:47,760
Speaker 7: it's going to be Boston versus the world for me.

696
00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:50,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, well I'll go don't let that then put

697
00:32:50,760 --> 00:32:51,480
Speaker 1: that on a shirt.

698
00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:52,720
Speaker 4: Mike.

699
00:32:53,400 --> 00:32:58,600
Speaker 1: I really appreciate you joining us, really been playing ball

700
00:32:58,720 --> 00:33:00,560
Speaker 1: and doing all the Taylor Swifties things that you just

00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:02,920

00:33:48,360 --> 00:33:51,200

723
00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:54,440
Speaker 2: just picking up the accent. And my host, who's my

724

725

726
00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:02,440

727
00:34:02,640 --> 00:34:05,160

00:34:05,640 --> 00:34:07,600
Speaker 1: I have Actually I have family in London, so I've

729
00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:09,800
Speaker 1: grown up going to England like every other.

731
00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:15,719
Speaker 1: I love that cities. I wish I had that accent though,

732
00:34:15,760 --> 00:34:17,960

733
00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:20,320
Speaker 1: and I'm like, it is not cute.

734
00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:22,359
Speaker 2: Very aggressive, we.

735
00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:24,120

736
00:34:24,160 --> 00:34:24,680

746
00:34:52,719 --> 00:34:58,200
Speaker 1: the week, should shall we? I will start because we

747
00:34:58,280 --> 00:35:02,520
Speaker 1: haven't even really addressed the championship games that happened last weekend,

748
00:35:03,360 --> 00:35:05,520
Speaker 1: or you know, like in the case of the men's

749
00:35:05,560 --> 00:35:10,759
Speaker 1: tournament last Monday, I really really loved the fact that

750
00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:14,040
Speaker 1: though Yukon won again, as far as the women's tournament goes,

751
00:35:15,040 --> 00:35:18,160
Speaker 1: Paige Becker's got her first championship and that was something

752
00:35:18,280 --> 00:35:20,480
Speaker 1: that was You could just see the emotion on her face.

753
00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:24,399
Speaker 1: The way she hugged Gino was so cute. I loved

754
00:35:24,400 --> 00:35:28,360
Speaker 1: it so much. But what came out afterwards, which is

755
00:35:28,360 --> 00:35:32,640
Speaker 1: so funny. Rebecca Lobo was on a Sarah Spain's podcast

756
00:35:33,280 --> 00:35:35,880
Speaker 1: and Good Game with Sarah Spain, and she told a

757
00:35:35,920 --> 00:35:39,400
Speaker 1: really funny story of what happened right after they got

758
00:35:39,440 --> 00:35:41,959
Speaker 1: off the court and you saw the emotion, like I said,

759
00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:44,080
Speaker 1: like the hugging and all of that kind of I

760
00:35:44,120 --> 00:35:48,440
Speaker 1: just it was incredible, right and Page came out and

761
00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:50,960
Speaker 1: she said, like, Gino has been so wonderful. Our connections great.

762
00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:52,439
Speaker 1: I can go to him with anything. I go into

763
00:35:52,440 --> 00:35:54,080
Speaker 1: his office. We talk about life, we talked about basketball,

764
00:35:54,120 --> 00:35:57,719
Speaker 1: we talk about everything. Well, it turns out Gino roasted

765
00:35:57,920 --> 00:36:02,440
Speaker 1: Page at the postgame presser where you know they're all

766
00:36:02,480 --> 00:36:04,680
Speaker 1: ride and high. This is minutes after the confetti has

767
00:36:04,680 --> 00:36:09,160
Speaker 1: come down, and he basically just goes, hey, Page, go

768
00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:11,479
Speaker 1: sit down. You can sit next to her. You only

769
00:36:11,520 --> 00:36:13,480
Speaker 1: have one ring, She's got more, and she points to

770
00:36:13,520 --> 00:36:17,640
Speaker 1: Rebecca Lobo. He goes down the line and he points

771
00:36:17,640 --> 00:36:21,280
Speaker 1: at each of his former players that have like she

772
00:36:21,280 --> 00:36:25,799
Speaker 1: she's got four, that's three, two, Like just back and forth,

773
00:36:25,880 --> 00:36:28,480
Speaker 1: just humbling Page, which I think is so indicative of

774
00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:30,600
Speaker 1: their relationship. So despite the fact that it's been a

775
00:36:30,600 --> 00:36:32,759
Speaker 1: couple weeks and all that kind of stuff just coming down,

776
00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:35,799
Speaker 1: I just I loved hearing that and hearing Rebecca Lobo

777
00:36:35,960 --> 00:36:38,200
Speaker 1: just say like, hey, yeah, he's roasting her. But that's

778
00:36:38,440 --> 00:36:39,800
Speaker 1: what we love about Geno and I thought that was

779
00:36:39,840 --> 00:36:40,280
Speaker 1: really sweet.

780
00:36:40,360 --> 00:36:41,799
Speaker 2: Well, and to write off that, I was at the

781
00:36:41,880 --> 00:36:45,080
Speaker 2: UCLA Women's Final four game covering the Bruins as they

782
00:36:45,360 --> 00:36:48,440
Speaker 2: just got decimated by Yukon. I mean, that team was

783
00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:52,000
Speaker 2: on a mission and it's just really cool to see.

784
00:36:52,120 --> 00:36:54,880
Speaker 2: I mean, the conversation we were having about college women's

785
00:36:54,880 --> 00:36:59,360
Speaker 2: basketball as much as three years ago was the biggest

786
00:36:59,480 --> 00:37:03,719
Speaker 2: talking point. It was is Yukon bad for women's basketball? Right?

787
00:37:04,040 --> 00:37:07,120
Speaker 2: The dynastynastic nature of it? And to see them now,

788
00:37:07,120 --> 00:37:11,640
Speaker 2: we're like, that's not even relevant in you know, thirteen

789
00:37:11,719 --> 00:37:14,520
Speaker 2: national championships, But that's not the discourse because of how

790
00:37:14,560 --> 00:37:17,840
Speaker 2: far the game and the popularity has come. Awesome stuff,

791
00:37:18,280 --> 00:37:20,319
Speaker 2: What a great Final four, and I think it's only

792
00:37:20,320 --> 00:37:22,840
Speaker 2: going to continue to flourish. But real quick, here, my

793
00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:25,239
Speaker 2: feel good story of the week is the Masters. There's

794
00:37:25,320 --> 00:37:29,640
Speaker 2: something about this weekend that makes me so thrilled for

795
00:37:29,840 --> 00:37:32,760
Speaker 2: you know, the postseason push we're gonna get for the NHL,

796
00:37:32,840 --> 00:37:36,040
Speaker 2: for the NBA. I love seeing the scenes from Augusta

797
00:37:36,160 --> 00:37:40,439
Speaker 2: National on our TVs. I love Rory McElroy maybe having

798
00:37:40,480 --> 00:37:42,000
Speaker 2: the chance at redemption, even though I.

799
00:37:42,040 --> 00:37:44,239
Speaker 3: Kind of he's ton under now so he was nine.

800
00:37:45,080 --> 00:37:47,280
Speaker 2: I think he got a birdie. They're on twelve or thirteen,

801
00:37:47,600 --> 00:37:50,919
Speaker 2: I forget what it was. But if he can pull

802
00:37:50,960 --> 00:37:53,680
Speaker 2: it off, that will be the ultimate feel good moment,

803
00:37:53,760 --> 00:37:56,719
Speaker 2: even though you know he's had his trials and tribulations

804
00:37:56,719 --> 00:37:59,200
Speaker 2: as a personality and as a golfer. I think the

805
00:37:59,280 --> 00:38:02,960
Speaker 2: fact that he's chasing a major championship for over ten

806
00:38:03,080 --> 00:38:06,840
Speaker 2: years and to get it and get the Grand Slam

807
00:38:06,920 --> 00:38:10,719
Speaker 2: so to speak. Yeah, here, I think we're in for

808
00:38:10,800 --> 00:38:13,640
Speaker 2: some some special emotions. That is, if he doesn't blow

809
00:38:13,680 --> 00:38:17,520
Speaker 2: it right, I mean, which which we talked about, you

810
00:38:17,520 --> 00:38:19,800
Speaker 2: can't take for the trauma, the trauma.

811
00:38:19,719 --> 00:38:23,480
Speaker 6: Rory story, the Rory story, the story of roll right,

812
00:38:23,560 --> 00:38:24,160
Speaker 6: it could be great.

813
00:38:24,160 --> 00:38:25,919
Speaker 9: If he doesn't blow it, it could be great.

814
00:38:25,920 --> 00:38:29,360
Speaker 3: You're right, this could be a feel good story. Before

815
00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:30,560
Speaker 3: There is something.

816
00:38:30,320 --> 00:38:34,759
Speaker 1: So nostalgic though, of like of watching Augusta and the

817
00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:40,840
Speaker 1: Masters and having these storylines and that no matter who's leading,

818
00:38:40,880 --> 00:38:43,560
Speaker 1: no matter who's in the tournament, who missed the cut,

819
00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:47,239
Speaker 1: there is something so just nostalgic about the Masters. That

820
00:38:47,280 --> 00:38:50,320
Speaker 1: makes everyone tune in. I mean there's it's on countless

821
00:38:50,320 --> 00:38:52,880
Speaker 1: people's bucket lists to go, It's on min Like. I'm

822
00:38:52,920 --> 00:38:55,600
Speaker 1: not a huge, like avid golf fan, but I would

823
00:38:55,680 --> 00:38:57,040
Speaker 1: love to go to the Masters.

824
00:38:57,160 --> 00:38:59,080
Speaker 2: I was listening to one of the hosts say that

825
00:38:59,200 --> 00:39:03,600
Speaker 2: this tournament, this event is where people connect to the

826
00:39:03,680 --> 00:39:06,799
Speaker 2: game of golf truly and purely and they connect together to.

827
00:39:06,920 --> 00:39:08,759
Speaker 3: And see they connect with each other the game.

828
00:39:09,200 --> 00:39:11,760
Speaker 2: Have your phones there at time stands still. It's iconic,

829
00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:14,160
Speaker 2: it's classic, and it's it's elite.

830
00:39:14,680 --> 00:39:17,319
Speaker 3: Yeah, that is and hopefully it'll be a feel good

831
00:39:17,320 --> 00:39:18,160
Speaker 3: story for Rory.

832
00:39:18,760 --> 00:39:18,880

00:39:53,920 --> 00:39:58,759
Speaker 6: Bryson Deshambo birdied eighteen, meaning he birdied three of the

845
00:39:58,840 --> 00:40:03,080

Speaker 6: pairing in the Masters tomorrow, Martin and of course last

848
00:40:10,840 --> 00:40:14,399
Speaker 6: year Roy McElroy de Shambo we're going head to head

849
00:40:14,400 --> 00:40:18,720
Speaker 6: for that US Open title. McElroy faltered late to Shambo

850
00:40:19,080 --> 00:40:23,239
Speaker 6: came away with his second US Open championship. But you've

851
00:40:23,280 --> 00:40:26,160
Speaker 6: got a lot of stories between these two. This is

852
00:40:26,200 --> 00:40:28,759
Speaker 6: going to be dynamic. I know he's like, ah, there's

853
00:40:28,800 --> 00:40:31,320
Speaker 6: no Tiger Woods. Okay, put that aside.

854
00:40:32,200 --> 00:40:32,879
Speaker 4: When you have.

855
00:40:34,440 --> 00:40:38,080
Speaker 6: Two great competitors going head to head and both these

856
00:40:38,120 --> 00:40:40,200
Speaker 6: guys are at the peak of their game right now,

857
00:40:40,480 --> 00:40:41,960
Speaker 6: I don't care what the sport is.

858
00:40:42,520 --> 00:40:45,240
Speaker 9: It's must watch and that is going to be Tomorrow's Masters.

859
00:40:45,280 --> 00:40:48,719
Speaker 4: Can't wait one hundred percent. And I think that's what

860
00:40:48,719 --> 00:40:50,200
Speaker 4: people miss about.

861
00:40:50,239 --> 00:40:53,520
Speaker 8: Oh, you know, the name recognition maybe not be there

862
00:40:53,560 --> 00:40:55,680
Speaker 8: even though Roy McRoy and bryceon de Shambeau. If you

863
00:40:55,719 --> 00:40:59,000
Speaker 8: are even a casual watcher of ESPN or listener of

864
00:40:59,080 --> 00:41:02,040
Speaker 8: Fox sports radio will hear these names along the way,

865
00:41:02,080 --> 00:41:03,600
Speaker 8: so it's not like you're sitting here.

866
00:41:03,440 --> 00:41:07,160
Speaker 4: Looking at you know, I don't I don't even want.

867
00:41:07,040 --> 00:41:10,640
Speaker 8: To disparage anybody down down the waterboard, right did You're

868
00:41:10,640 --> 00:41:12,920
Speaker 8: not hearing the story about how like the forty three

869
00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:15,920
Speaker 8: year old substitute teacher is like making their way on

870
00:41:16,040 --> 00:41:18,560
Speaker 8: moving day up the leader board. No, these are some

871
00:41:18,640 --> 00:41:21,000
Speaker 8: of the best golfers in the world and we're gonna

872
00:41:21,040 --> 00:41:24,680
Speaker 8: What we're going to see tomorrow is the opportunity for

873
00:41:24,960 --> 00:41:27,560
Speaker 8: some of the best in the world to be in

874
00:41:27,640 --> 00:41:28,920
Speaker 8: the highest stakes.

875
00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:32,239
Speaker 4: And when you get that like that is a formula that.

876
00:41:32,200 --> 00:41:35,600
Speaker 8: Obviously sports has mastered and we've seen even like in

877
00:41:35,800 --> 00:41:37,360
Speaker 8: movies and in mood music.

878
00:41:37,400 --> 00:41:38,360
Speaker 4: But that's where you want to be.

879
00:41:38,520 --> 00:41:40,680
Speaker 8: You want to see the best in moments where they

880
00:41:40,760 --> 00:41:43,400
Speaker 8: get the opportunity to show I am still the best.

881
00:41:43,400 --> 00:41:46,839
Speaker 6: Well, and this is again we're talking about both both.

882
00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:49,480
Speaker 6: You know, bryceon de Shamba arguably right now is the

883
00:41:49,480 --> 00:41:54,520
Speaker 6: most popular golfer out there, and Lory McElroy, obviously he

884
00:41:54,840 --> 00:41:57,480
Speaker 6: is an emotional Neither one of these guys has won

885
00:41:57,520 --> 00:42:02,040
Speaker 6: the Masters. I mean, you know, I will never forget

886
00:42:02,480 --> 00:42:04,080
Speaker 6: and I'm going to go old school on you, Martin

887
00:42:04,120 --> 00:42:04,640
Speaker 6: for a second.

888
00:42:04,680 --> 00:42:04,879
Speaker 4: Here.

889
00:42:05,320 --> 00:42:08,000
Speaker 6: You know, everyone's like, what does it mean to be

890
00:42:08,040 --> 00:42:11,040
Speaker 6: a master champion? Like, what's so special about being a

891
00:42:11,080 --> 00:42:14,320
Speaker 6: Master's Champion. One of the great old time golfers was

892
00:42:14,360 --> 00:42:16,840
Speaker 6: a guy named Billy Casper. He was a contemporary of

893
00:42:16,920 --> 00:42:19,840
Speaker 6: Jack Nicholas and Arnold Palmer, Gary player back in the

894
00:42:19,880 --> 00:42:22,440
Speaker 6: sixties and seventies. He won a couple of US Opens,

895
00:42:22,640 --> 00:42:25,000
Speaker 6: Hall of Famer and everything else, but he finally broke

896
00:42:25,040 --> 00:42:28,359
Speaker 6: through and won a Master's in nineteen seventy and I

897
00:42:28,400 --> 00:42:31,840
Speaker 6: asked him, so, what's so special about being a Master's champion?

898
00:42:32,520 --> 00:42:35,080
Speaker 6: He does get to pick the dinner it is well,

899
00:42:35,520 --> 00:42:37,280
Speaker 6: and you get to go to that dinner every year.

900
00:42:37,760 --> 00:42:41,080
Speaker 6: I mean, he says, when you are a Master's Champion,

901
00:42:42,640 --> 00:42:45,279
Speaker 6: it doesn't matter where you played, or what you've won

902
00:42:45,480 --> 00:42:48,120
Speaker 6: or whatever. You will never get the same treatment again

903
00:42:48,400 --> 00:42:51,360
Speaker 6: when you walk on those grounds as a Master's champion,

904
00:42:51,719 --> 00:42:54,120
Speaker 6: even if it was a one year wonder job or

905
00:42:54,200 --> 00:42:55,440
Speaker 6: the greatest of all time.

906
00:42:55,960 --> 00:42:56,799
Speaker 4: You're in a.

907
00:42:56,800 --> 00:43:00,880
Speaker 6: Select fraternity, and for golfers it is absolutely heaven. So

908
00:43:01,040 --> 00:43:04,040
Speaker 6: for one of these two guys, most likely, until you know,

909
00:43:04,239 --> 00:43:06,160
Speaker 6: I gotta believe the winner is going to be either

910
00:43:06,239 --> 00:43:09,120
Speaker 6: Rory mclory, Bryce and a Shambo. It will be a

911
00:43:09,239 --> 00:43:12,000
Speaker 6: life altering experience for one of these two guys, and

912
00:43:12,040 --> 00:43:15,120
Speaker 6: they're both wildly popular. So this is why it's it's

913
00:43:15,200 --> 00:43:17,319
Speaker 6: such a big deal tomorrow. I mean, it's just that

914
00:43:17,719 --> 00:43:21,040
Speaker 6: you are you're a Master's Champion. You get everything that

915
00:43:21,120 --> 00:43:24,239
Speaker 6: comes along with being a Master's Champion. I mean, give

916
00:43:24,280 --> 00:43:27,120
Speaker 6: you an idea of this dinner that they have every year.

917
00:43:27,200 --> 00:43:29,279
Speaker 6: Do you realize these guys, some of these guys are

918
00:43:29,320 --> 00:43:33,200
Speaker 6: well into their eighties and they still show up every

919
00:43:33,640 --> 00:43:36,719
Speaker 6: single year for that they haven't played in the Masters

920
00:43:36,760 --> 00:43:38,360
Speaker 6: in twenty five thirty years.

921
00:43:38,560 --> 00:43:39,560
Speaker 9: It doesn't matter.

922
00:43:39,920 --> 00:43:42,760
Speaker 6: You are still walking the grounds as a Master's Champion,

923
00:43:42,800 --> 00:43:44,920
Speaker 6: putting it on that green jacket. By the way, you

924
00:43:44,960 --> 00:43:48,520
Speaker 6: don't get multiple green jackets. Tiger doesn't have five green jackets.

925
00:43:48,560 --> 00:43:51,439
Speaker 6: He has one. They have like a champion's locker room.

926
00:43:51,680 --> 00:43:54,759
Speaker 6: He actually has to share his locker with a name

927
00:43:54,800 --> 00:43:57,080
Speaker 6: from the past because there's it's not a very big

928
00:43:57,160 --> 00:43:58,040
Speaker 6: locker room.

929
00:43:58,320 --> 00:43:59,360
Speaker 9: There's just all these.

930
00:43:59,239 --> 00:44:01,840
Speaker 6: Traditions that you know a lot of people are like, ah,

931
00:44:01,880 --> 00:44:06,520
Speaker 6: make new traditions, Eh, just some I agree, some traditions

932
00:44:06,520 --> 00:44:10,120
Speaker 6: aren't as aren't as good as others, but the things

933
00:44:10,120 --> 00:44:12,560
Speaker 6: that come along with being a Master's Champion from a

934
00:44:12,600 --> 00:44:16,400
Speaker 6: golfer's perspective, you just you have to talk to golfers

935
00:44:16,440 --> 00:44:19,040
Speaker 6: that have been there, done that, and been part of

936
00:44:19,040 --> 00:44:20,239
Speaker 6: this select fraternity.

937
00:44:20,719 --> 00:44:22,520
Speaker 9: They will all tell you the same thing.

938
00:44:23,320 --> 00:44:26,120
Speaker 6: It is the epitome of any golf career to become

939
00:44:26,120 --> 00:44:30,360
Speaker 6: a Master's Champion. And tomorrow, either Rory McElroy or Bryson

940
00:44:30,400 --> 00:44:31,759
Speaker 6: de Shambeau will be that.

941
00:44:31,960 --> 00:44:35,280
Speaker 8: It's the It's the super Bowl, right, It's the super

942
00:44:35,360 --> 00:44:37,120
Speaker 8: Bowl of an individual sport.

943
00:44:37,560 --> 00:44:39,839
Speaker 4: Like you talk about, like the emotion that we.

944
00:44:39,800 --> 00:44:42,400
Speaker 8: Will see out of Rory McElroy tomorrow, whether it is

945
00:44:42,840 --> 00:44:46,800
Speaker 8: stoicism right, whether it's as he's starting to potentially unravel

946
00:44:46,880 --> 00:44:49,359
Speaker 8: you start to see the nerves, start to see him

947
00:44:49,400 --> 00:44:51,480
Speaker 8: literally shaking out there, you know, to say, you.

948
00:44:51,480 --> 00:44:53,560
Speaker 4: Can see you know, that's what That's what we're here for.

949
00:44:53,640 --> 00:44:54,560
Speaker 4: That's what we're here for.

950
00:44:54,480 --> 00:44:58,520
Speaker 8: In terms of that drama or you know, like I know, yeah,

951
00:44:58,640 --> 00:45:03,640
Speaker 8: Deshambeau and McElroy considerable lead here, McElroy even a considerable

952
00:45:03,719 --> 00:45:06,239
Speaker 8: not so much now that Deshambo finished those last three

953
00:45:06,239 --> 00:45:07,400
Speaker 8: holes out the way he did.

954
00:45:07,400 --> 00:45:09,640
Speaker 4: But had a considerable lead for most of the day.

955
00:45:09,760 --> 00:45:12,760
Speaker 8: Shot his best round he hasn't in a while right here,

956
00:45:12,960 --> 00:45:16,600
Speaker 8: six under, but like so that is and then two

957
00:45:17,200 --> 00:45:19,520
Speaker 8: to me. In golf especially, you could see some of

958
00:45:19,520 --> 00:45:20,680
Speaker 8: these guys closing in.

959
00:45:20,760 --> 00:45:22,440
Speaker 4: It's like you start to pay attend you.

960
00:45:22,719 --> 00:45:25,239
Speaker 8: And the thing that is unique about golf more than

961
00:45:25,280 --> 00:45:30,560
Speaker 8: any other sport because the crowd is so segmented. Right,

962
00:45:31,239 --> 00:45:34,840
Speaker 8: Like in a basketball game, you see everything that happens

963
00:45:34,880 --> 00:45:37,800
Speaker 8: at a football game, that baseball diamond, you see everything

964
00:45:37,840 --> 00:45:40,520
Speaker 8: that happens. But at a golf a tournament, people are

965
00:45:40,600 --> 00:45:42,920
Speaker 8: following people right, so every so off, so like you

966
00:45:42,960 --> 00:45:46,080
Speaker 8: start whoever's following Corey Connors. Let's say he continues to

967
00:45:46,120 --> 00:45:48,080
Speaker 8: streak that he was on to finish this round, he

968
00:45:48,160 --> 00:45:51,680
Speaker 8: just shoots seven under tomorrow, right, and and Rory and

969
00:45:51,719 --> 00:45:52,719
Speaker 8: Bryce is shoot.

970
00:45:52,560 --> 00:45:53,359
Speaker 4: Around even par.

971
00:45:53,840 --> 00:45:56,520
Speaker 8: They're gonna be hearing the people cheering for somebody else,

972
00:45:56,600 --> 00:45:59,399
Speaker 8: like what's happening over there? And in a sport where

973
00:45:59,360 --> 00:46:01,600
Speaker 8: he's supposed to be quiet, is supposed to be you know,

974
00:46:01,840 --> 00:46:04,960
Speaker 8: very you know, you know it's going to be a

975
00:46:05,040 --> 00:46:05,800
Speaker 8: lot if.

976
00:46:05,680 --> 00:46:08,520
Speaker 6: There's one golfer below them to keep an eye on

977
00:46:09,040 --> 00:46:13,200
Speaker 6: it's Ludwig Oberg. Because Oberg, as you know, not only

978
00:46:13,239 --> 00:46:16,040
Speaker 6: his first Masters last year was the first Major he

979
00:46:16,120 --> 00:46:19,120
Speaker 6: ever played in sole second place last year, and Oberg

980
00:46:19,160 --> 00:46:22,520
Speaker 6: today shot sixty nine. He got back into it after

981
00:46:23,040 --> 00:46:25,160
Speaker 6: a bit of a sub par day yesterday, shout of

982
00:46:25,200 --> 00:46:28,560
Speaker 6: one over seventy three. If there's one player ahead of

983
00:46:28,600 --> 00:46:31,040
Speaker 6: them that I think could make some noise.

984
00:46:31,080 --> 00:46:35,120
Speaker 9: Ludwig Oberg is the guy that I would be looking at.

985
00:46:35,920 --> 00:46:39,360
Speaker 6: By the way, pronunciating names like Oberg gets spelled with

986
00:46:39,400 --> 00:46:41,600
Speaker 6: an A, but it's an O like you know, look, Aberg,

987
00:46:41,640 --> 00:46:44,920
Speaker 6: it's Oberg. I wanted to talk to you about this

988
00:46:45,400 --> 00:46:50,920
Speaker 6: nil situation and your Tennessee quarterbacks. So this is a

989
00:46:51,040 --> 00:46:53,279
Speaker 6: name that I'm going to have to say probably a

990
00:46:53,320 --> 00:46:55,280
Speaker 6: few times, because I have television tonight.

991
00:46:55,560 --> 00:46:56,239
Speaker 4: Well, I think you.

992
00:46:56,239 --> 00:46:57,759
Speaker 8: Might have to say it a few more times when

993
00:46:57,760 --> 00:46:59,319
Speaker 8: he ends up landing where he might land.

994
00:46:59,400 --> 00:47:02,040
Speaker 9: Well, I hope, Nico, I am Ava.

995
00:47:02,560 --> 00:47:04,200
Speaker 4: I think that's not.

996
00:47:05,680 --> 00:47:10,880
Speaker 9: No, that's right, Nico, I think.

997
00:47:12,480 --> 00:47:13,000
Speaker 4: Is correct?

998
00:47:14,239 --> 00:47:17,120
Speaker 9: Not I E Nico?

999
00:47:19,440 --> 00:47:19,680
Speaker 4: Yeah?

1000
00:47:20,360 --> 00:47:23,120
Speaker 6: Actually, it's it's easier when you actually look at it

1001
00:47:23,160 --> 00:47:26,080
Speaker 6: and just say, all right, the eyes and the elva,

1002
00:47:26,280 --> 00:47:27,200
Speaker 6: yeah makes sense.

1003
00:47:27,040 --> 00:47:27,239
Speaker 7: You know.

1004
00:47:27,400 --> 00:47:29,200
Speaker 8: I find that to be true for a lot of

1005
00:47:29,520 --> 00:47:30,720
Speaker 8: Polynesian names.

1006
00:47:31,040 --> 00:47:31,480
Speaker 3: What do you just.

1007
00:47:33,400 --> 00:47:34,839
Speaker 9: J A Like?

1008
00:47:34,920 --> 00:47:37,840
Speaker 6: I had to cover him in high school, so it's like,

1009
00:47:37,840 --> 00:47:41,080
Speaker 6: you know, la, it's like to a tongue of bylaw

1010
00:47:41,120 --> 00:47:43,000
Speaker 6: and you're like, where's where's I'm sorry, is there an

1011
00:47:43,080 --> 00:47:43,480
Speaker 6: end in there?

1012
00:47:43,480 --> 00:47:46,000
Speaker 9: Where's that? But you have to say it to a

1013
00:47:46,040 --> 00:47:51,759
Speaker 9: tongue of law? But uh uh uh?

1014
00:47:52,160 --> 00:47:54,799
Speaker 6: So did I don't know? Did you hear today? T

1015
00:47:54,920 --> 00:48:00,960
Speaker 6: J huschmanns our dear friend with this morning with the Arrington.

1016
00:48:00,880 --> 00:48:02,040
Speaker 4: I did not? What did he have to say?

1017
00:48:02,080 --> 00:48:04,040
Speaker 9: So Lebar opened up the show.

1018
00:48:05,280 --> 00:48:12,800
Speaker 6: And TJ was hot because he feels like that Nico

1019
00:48:13,960 --> 00:48:15,680
Speaker 6: is really getting the short end of the stick on

1020
00:48:15,719 --> 00:48:16,400
Speaker 6: this story.

1021
00:48:16,800 --> 00:48:17,640
Speaker 9: Here's what he said.

1022
00:48:17,760 --> 00:48:20,839
Speaker 6: So the way this story has come out is that

1023
00:48:20,920 --> 00:48:23,080
Speaker 6: he was a holdout, like this would like we have

1024
00:48:23,160 --> 00:48:27,279
Speaker 6: our first nil holdout because he hadn't attended a couple

1025
00:48:27,360 --> 00:48:31,000
Speaker 6: of practices, right, and then finally Tennessee drops the bomb

1026
00:48:31,000 --> 00:48:33,879
Speaker 6: saying we're moving on, so he's going to enter the

1027
00:48:33,920 --> 00:48:38,279
Speaker 6: transfer portal. That's the story that came out, and TJ's like,

1028
00:48:38,360 --> 00:48:42,040
Speaker 6: that's not the story here. The last time that they

1029
00:48:42,239 --> 00:48:49,239
Speaker 6: spoke about any nil money, any compensation, was January.

1030
00:48:49,840 --> 00:48:52,560
Speaker 4: This is TJ. He's like reporting this.

1031
00:48:52,840 --> 00:48:54,160
Speaker 9: He is reporting this.

1032
00:48:54,320 --> 00:48:59,960
Speaker 6: The last time that there was any conversation between Niko

1033
00:49:01,040 --> 00:49:05,279
Speaker 6: and the Tennessee Valls about any kind of financial compensation. Again,

1034
00:49:05,320 --> 00:49:07,479
Speaker 6: this is a quarterback who led him into the college

1035
00:49:07,520 --> 00:49:11,040
Speaker 6: football playoff a year ago, was back in January.

1036
00:49:12,160 --> 00:49:13,720
Speaker 9: There was no conversation.

1037
00:49:14,640 --> 00:49:17,399
Speaker 6: And so he's seeing these nil deals that are being

1038
00:49:17,400 --> 00:49:20,920
Speaker 6: made by quarterbacks who have accomplished a lot less.

1039
00:49:21,520 --> 00:49:23,319
Speaker 9: As compared to what he's getting from.

1040
00:49:23,480 --> 00:49:28,160
Speaker 6: Yes, a very rich SEC school that would be the

1041
00:49:28,239 --> 00:49:32,480
Speaker 6: University of Tennessee. Neyland Stadium holds over one hundred thousand fans.

1042
00:49:32,520 --> 00:49:35,200
Speaker 6: They backed that stadium for every game. There's a lot

1043
00:49:35,239 --> 00:49:38,880
Speaker 6: of money rolling down in Knoxville. And he wanted to

1044
00:49:39,400 --> 00:49:44,439
Speaker 6: have a conversation. They weren't talking, and so they're trying

1045
00:49:44,440 --> 00:49:47,319
Speaker 6: to make it out that he's the bad guy. Dare

1046
00:49:47,400 --> 00:49:50,080
Speaker 6: you hold out from You're holding out on us for

1047
00:49:50,160 --> 00:49:52,279
Speaker 6: more money. He's like, we never even got to the

1048
00:49:52,280 --> 00:49:56,800
Speaker 6: conversation about the money. So he hits the transfer portal

1049
00:49:57,440 --> 00:49:59,279
Speaker 6: and I'm just you know, this wi.

1050
00:49:59,239 --> 00:50:00,560
Speaker 9: The way TJ explain it.

1051
00:50:00,680 --> 00:50:01,600
Speaker 4: I know TJ.

1052
00:50:01,880 --> 00:50:04,440
Speaker 6: I've worked with TJ a few times. He if he

1053
00:50:04,520 --> 00:50:07,120
Speaker 6: has a story like this. He knows what's going on.

1054
00:50:07,560 --> 00:50:10,279
Speaker 8: As a guy who's not you know, he's not over

1055
00:50:10,280 --> 00:50:14,359
Speaker 8: there college sports insider, like somebody that he trus told

1056
00:50:14,440 --> 00:50:16,360
Speaker 8: him that this is how it's all went down. And

1057
00:50:16,440 --> 00:50:19,120
Speaker 8: plus duode not to get too deep into TJ's bonafides.

1058
00:50:19,120 --> 00:50:20,959
Speaker 8: Obviously NFL player, but he trains a lot of guys

1059
00:50:20,960 --> 00:50:21,920
Speaker 8: out here in South California.

1060
00:50:22,040 --> 00:50:23,200
Speaker 9: Yes, a lot of high school players.

1061
00:50:23,280 --> 00:50:26,120
Speaker 8: And guess what, Nico long Beach Polly at times like

1062
00:50:26,480 --> 00:50:29,359
Speaker 8: she's from out this area knows him, Yes, he knows

1063
00:50:29,440 --> 00:50:29,960
Speaker 8: him and all.

1064
00:50:30,320 --> 00:50:34,000
Speaker 4: But this is not the first time we've heard.

1065
00:50:33,760 --> 00:50:40,000
Speaker 8: About Nico im Malava's That's that was bad Nico's nil situation.

1066
00:50:40,160 --> 00:50:42,080
Speaker 4: We heard about it his freshman year coming in.

1067
00:50:42,400 --> 00:50:47,520
Speaker 8: It makes me wonder how because all of these players

1068
00:50:47,560 --> 00:50:50,359
Speaker 8: now have quote unquote camps right that cam, it makes

1069
00:50:50,360 --> 00:50:53,799
Speaker 8: you wonder just how tight Nico's camp is. Where this

1070
00:50:53,920 --> 00:50:56,520
Speaker 8: is coming in this way because because, like you said,

1071
00:50:56,719 --> 00:51:00,879
Speaker 8: the way the story's being reported is that Niko went

1072
00:51:00,920 --> 00:51:03,759
Speaker 8: to the desk and was like like like Rudy in

1073
00:51:03,800 --> 00:51:05,839
Speaker 8: the movie and said, I'm throwing my jersey down. Nlets

1074
00:51:05,840 --> 00:51:08,319
Speaker 8: you give me four million dollars today, right, like all

1075
00:51:08,360 --> 00:51:10,360
Speaker 8: the players came in and said, let's I'm not playing

1076
00:51:10,360 --> 00:51:13,200
Speaker 8: and lets you play Rudy and what was a not

1077
00:51:13,320 --> 00:51:15,520
Speaker 8: true movie. But you know what I'm saying, that's why

1078
00:51:15,560 --> 00:51:18,000
Speaker 8: it's been reported when the reality is it's like, hey,

1079
00:51:18,000 --> 00:51:21,319
Speaker 8: the cost of starting quarterbacks is going up. I'm the

1080
00:51:21,320 --> 00:51:24,640
Speaker 8: starting quarterback. We should have a conversation about this. If

1081
00:51:24,680 --> 00:51:28,279
Speaker 8: he's saying that, like, you're just ignoring my calls. That's crazy, right,

1082
00:51:28,680 --> 00:51:29,200
Speaker 8: that's crazy.

1083
00:51:29,239 --> 00:51:31,279
Speaker 6: You know how much funny Carson Beck got to leave

1084
00:51:32,760 --> 00:51:39,480
Speaker 6: four million? Four million for Carson Beck. Look, I'm telling

1085
00:51:39,520 --> 00:51:43,239
Speaker 6: you I have to laugh right here, Martin, because when

1086
00:51:43,520 --> 00:51:46,399
Speaker 6: when this really all started with Ed O'Bannon, the former

1087
00:51:46,520 --> 00:51:50,600
Speaker 6: UCLA basketball star and my dear friend Sonny Vacaro getting

1088
00:51:50,640 --> 00:51:53,600
Speaker 6: out there and saying, this is ridiculous that there should

1089
00:51:53,680 --> 00:51:59,600
Speaker 6: be some kind of compensation as these universities are pilot

1090
00:51:59,680 --> 00:52:03,320
Speaker 6: in my marketing, not just their current players, but former

1091
00:52:03,360 --> 00:52:05,759
Speaker 6: players merchandise, and they don't get a dime of that.

1092
00:52:06,280 --> 00:52:09,239
Speaker 6: And this finally broke in the state of California. People say, wow,

1093
00:52:09,239 --> 00:52:11,920
Speaker 6: that's going to be isolated. Yeah, maybe the USC quarterback

1094
00:52:12,000 --> 00:52:13,000
Speaker 6: is going to make a few bucks.

1095
00:52:13,000 --> 00:52:14,200
Speaker 4: I go, are you high?

1096
00:52:15,080 --> 00:52:18,800
Speaker 6: They've opened the Pandora's box, and the NCAA just stepped

1097
00:52:18,800 --> 00:52:22,719
Speaker 6: away saying, uh.

1098
00:52:21,200 --> 00:52:23,120
Speaker 9: There's nothing we can do about this. I mean it

1099
00:52:23,200 --> 00:52:24,239
Speaker 9: was great. Think about this.

1100
00:52:24,440 --> 00:52:28,040
Speaker 6: Six of our last eight Heisman Trophy winners have played

1101
00:52:28,080 --> 00:52:31,839
Speaker 6: for multiple schools, dude, Six of our and the two

1102
00:52:31,920 --> 00:52:35,600
Speaker 6: exceptions were Devonte Smith and Bryce Young. They stayed at

1103
00:52:35,600 --> 00:52:39,239
Speaker 6: Alabama the whole career. And you know why Nick Saban left.

1104
00:52:39,800 --> 00:52:41,960
Speaker 6: He won't say it, but we know that Nick Saban said,

1105
00:52:41,960 --> 00:52:44,160
Speaker 6: I don't want, I don't want. I've had my career.

1106
00:52:44,239 --> 00:52:46,080
Speaker 6: I don't want to have to put up with any

1107
00:52:46,160 --> 00:52:48,600
Speaker 6: of this. But six of the last eight Heisman Trophy

1108
00:52:48,600 --> 00:52:51,520
Speaker 6: winners have played for multiple schools in their career. That

1109
00:52:51,760 --> 00:52:53,360
Speaker 6: is the future of college football.

1110
00:52:53,560 --> 00:52:54,400
Speaker 4: That is the career.

1111
00:52:54,520 --> 00:52:57,600
Speaker 6: That's the future of college basketball. That's where we are

1112
00:52:57,760 --> 00:53:02,400
Speaker 6: right now. It is free agentcity every single season.

1113
00:53:02,920 --> 00:53:06,600
Speaker 8: And see the thing that I actually kind of have

1114
00:53:06,719 --> 00:53:10,160
Speaker 8: a little bit of I don't want to say, uh,

1115
00:53:11,280 --> 00:53:14,399
Speaker 8: I feel for colleges right now because of the way

1116
00:53:14,440 --> 00:53:15,879
Speaker 8: that there's no guidelines.

1117
00:53:15,920 --> 00:53:19,120
Speaker 4: Like every other job that you signed, you have.

1118
00:53:19,040 --> 00:53:22,319
Speaker 8: Some level of contract or agreement right like, and you

1119
00:53:22,360 --> 00:53:26,279
Speaker 8: are required to work that agreement as long as you

1120
00:53:26,560 --> 00:53:29,239
Speaker 8: want to get paid like, and it's like there are

1121
00:53:29,360 --> 00:53:32,080
Speaker 8: stipulations that required all this. But because we do this

1122
00:53:32,120 --> 00:53:34,840
Speaker 8: whole shadow through the collective so on and so forth,

1123
00:53:35,440 --> 00:53:38,400
Speaker 8: it opens up this type of stuff Like it opens

1124
00:53:38,480 --> 00:53:41,000
Speaker 8: up where oh, well, you know X y Z collector

1125
00:53:41,040 --> 00:53:43,279
Speaker 8: said I was gonna get five million, and now now

1126
00:53:43,360 --> 00:53:47,319
Speaker 8: where's the money? Right, Whereas if it was the university

1127
00:53:47,480 --> 00:53:50,040
Speaker 8: was directly cutting checks the same way they cut checks

1128
00:53:50,040 --> 00:53:52,600
Speaker 8: to the football coaches, the same way they cut checks

1129
00:53:52,600 --> 00:53:56,320
Speaker 8: to the science teachers and the biology professors and the janitors.

1130
00:53:56,640 --> 00:53:59,560
Speaker 8: Right that they all work for the University of Tennessee, Engresh,

1131
00:53:59,560 --> 00:54:01,120
Speaker 8: Michigan or US or wherever.

1132
00:54:01,640 --> 00:54:02,759
Speaker 4: Football players do too.

1133
00:54:03,239 --> 00:54:05,399
Speaker 8: And if you did that, you wouldn't have a lot

1134
00:54:05,440 --> 00:54:08,480
Speaker 8: of this, a lot of this, these issues would go away.

1135
00:54:08,600 --> 00:54:10,640
Speaker 8: But if I'm Nancy double A, I feel like this

1136
00:54:10,680 --> 00:54:12,759
Speaker 8: is what they're doing. They put their hands away from

1137
00:54:12,840 --> 00:54:14,880
Speaker 8: and wash their hands up. It said, because look, we

1138
00:54:15,000 --> 00:54:17,600
Speaker 8: know that our only relevance right now is the tournament

1139
00:54:17,600 --> 00:54:20,040
Speaker 8: that we put on in March. Please just don't take

1140
00:54:20,080 --> 00:54:22,080
Speaker 8: that away from us. We're not trying to do anything wrong.

1141
00:54:23,280 --> 00:54:32,759
Speaker 6: Nico e malava iam olava em malava, Is that right? Eva? No,

1142
00:54:32,880 --> 00:54:39,680
Speaker 6: that's not right, Eh, Malaya, is that right? I think

1143
00:54:39,680 --> 00:54:43,400
Speaker 6: it's right. It feels right right because I have to

1144
00:54:43,400 --> 00:54:47,640
Speaker 6: say this name all night long tonight, Nico especially.

1145
00:54:47,400 --> 00:54:48,960
Speaker 4: He might have to say it all season long.

1146
00:54:49,280 --> 00:54:52,279
Speaker 9: You may have to say making that call. Well, I'm

1147
00:54:52,280 --> 00:54:53,360
Speaker 9: gonna tell my u c l A.

1148
00:54:53,440 --> 00:54:57,759
Speaker 6: Bruins because I know that she's thinking his son devils.

1149
00:54:58,280 --> 00:55:00,200
Speaker 9: He goes, Hey, you's got all kinds of money.

00:55:00,239 --> 00:55:01,680
Speaker 4: You got the money, Yeah, get over.

1151
00:55:01,560 --> 00:55:03,960
Speaker 9: Here at UCLAs money. They're gonna have to start spending

1152
00:55:04,040 --> 00:55:05,520
Speaker 9: some of that money.

1153
00:55:05,560 --> 00:55:05,880
Speaker 4: All right.

1154
00:55:05,920 --> 00:55:07,480

1155
00:55:07,480 --> 00:55:08,520

Speaker 4: Are you going to do it next year? Will it

1188
00:56:48,960 --> 00:56:50,720
Speaker 9: That's that's what. That's the whole point.

1189
00:56:51,239 --> 00:56:53,799
Speaker 6: You have to pay every year. You have to pay

1190
00:56:53,800 --> 00:56:56,719
Speaker 6: every year. Every year is a clean slate, I mean

1191
00:56:56,800 --> 00:56:59,719
Speaker 6: just even a idea. So u CLA women, Right, they

1192
00:56:59,719 --> 00:57:02,239
Speaker 6: get out by Yukon in the final four. The good

1193
00:57:02,239 --> 00:57:05,120
Speaker 6: news they have all their starters back, right, no seniors

1194
00:57:05,120 --> 00:57:08,640
Speaker 6: on the team. Guess what, Two of their top players

1195
00:57:08,680 --> 00:57:12,480
Speaker 6: have already entered the transfer portal, and all for their freshmen,

1196
00:57:12,719 --> 00:57:15,279
Speaker 6: none of which were starters. All four of them entered

1197
00:57:15,320 --> 00:57:19,320
Speaker 6: the transfer portal. Gone, look at the UCLA men. The

1198
00:57:19,400 --> 00:57:21,640
Speaker 6: seven to three spaniard Mara who had sort of a

1199
00:57:21,720 --> 00:57:25,320
Speaker 6: breakouts gone, welcome nan Arbor. Now he's a Michigan. How

1200
00:57:25,400 --> 00:57:26,920
Speaker 6: much did you pay him? I want to see the

1201
00:57:26,960 --> 00:57:29,560
Speaker 6: price tag you guys paid Mara. They don't call it

1202
00:57:29,840 --> 00:57:34,760
Speaker 6: big blue bucks for pay up. Sucker, Does this bother

1203
00:57:34,840 --> 00:57:35,320
Speaker 6: you at all?

1204
00:57:36,520 --> 00:57:39,440
Speaker 8: I'm one of the halves, Like Michigan is a halves,

1205
00:57:39,680 --> 00:57:42,840
Speaker 8: Like like when you look at it realistically, like Michigan

1206
00:57:42,960 --> 00:57:45,880
Speaker 8: is a school that should This is something that benefit

1207
00:57:46,040 --> 00:57:50,920
Speaker 8: only being able to spend unlimited from the guy who's

1208
00:57:50,960 --> 00:57:54,920
Speaker 8: you know, alumni base is the guy who created Google

1209
00:57:55,160 --> 00:57:57,040
Speaker 8: isn't it like we should be able to afford whever.

1210
00:57:56,840 --> 00:58:00,440
Speaker 9: We want to, So we're I mean there's no inning site.

1211
00:58:00,560 --> 00:58:02,400
Speaker 9: I mean we say this in sports.

1212
00:58:02,800 --> 00:58:04,400
Speaker 4: I remember just a few years ago.

1213
00:58:04,240 --> 00:58:07,720
Speaker 9: Because the NFL, I mean it's it's peaked. No, it's

1214
00:58:07,760 --> 00:58:08,280
Speaker 9: not peak.

1215
00:58:08,360 --> 00:58:09,680
Speaker 4: No, there's no en insight.

1216
00:58:09,760 --> 00:58:11,720
Speaker 9: Look at the NBA salaries.

1217
00:58:11,960 --> 00:58:17,280
Speaker 6: We now have guys under contract making almost seventy million

1218
00:58:17,400 --> 00:58:17,800
Speaker 6: a year.

1219
00:58:18,560 --> 00:58:20,480
Speaker 8: But I think what's going to be interesting is that

1220
00:58:21,560 --> 00:58:25,720
Speaker 8: they will soon be a position where it will be

1221
00:58:25,800 --> 00:58:31,840
Speaker 8: more profitable for the average college player to stay in college.

1222
00:58:32,120 --> 00:58:33,840
Speaker 8: Then it will be for him to go and try

1223
00:58:33,880 --> 00:58:37,160
Speaker 8: to make it to the NFL. And when that happens,

1224
00:58:37,320 --> 00:58:38,600
Speaker 8: I think, all of a sudd we're gonna get a

1225
00:58:38,640 --> 00:58:41,720
Speaker 8: college salary caps and we're going to start to see

1226
00:58:42,280 --> 00:58:45,160
Speaker 8: the NFL have an influence on the college game because

1227
00:58:45,160 --> 00:58:47,120
Speaker 8: I don't think the NBA is going to do it.

1228
00:58:47,280 --> 00:58:49,680
Speaker 6: Here's here's what's going to be interesting about the NFL

1229
00:58:49,960 --> 00:58:53,760
Speaker 6: and the minor league that has been their free minor league,

1230
00:58:53,800 --> 00:58:56,600
Speaker 6: which has been college football all these years. Yes, so,

1231
00:58:56,720 --> 00:58:59,440
Speaker 6: way back in the day, a couple of players challenge

1232
00:58:59,440 --> 00:59:02,080
Speaker 6: the idea that you had to be three years removed

1233
00:59:02,080 --> 00:59:04,800
Speaker 6: from high school in order to be eligible for the

1234
00:59:04,880 --> 00:59:07,680
Speaker 6: NFL draft. And it was the NFL that fought that

1235
00:59:07,760 --> 00:59:10,920
Speaker 6: tooth and nail. They wanted to keep these guys in college, absolutely,

1236
00:59:11,040 --> 00:59:13,320
Speaker 6: But now that this money is out there for these

1237
00:59:13,400 --> 00:59:16,040
Speaker 6: kids and we're seeing guys say, well, heck, I mean

1238
00:59:16,080 --> 00:59:20,560
Speaker 6: Carson Beck reportedly got four million dollars to leave Georgia

1239
00:59:20,600 --> 00:59:23,000
Speaker 6: to go to the University of Miami. Four million dollars.

1240
00:59:23,520 --> 00:59:26,600
Speaker 6: Where's Carson Beck projected in the NFL draft. I don't know,

1241
00:59:26,960 --> 00:59:28,919
Speaker 6: but if you're going to make that kind of guarantee money,

1242
00:59:28,960 --> 00:59:31,560
Speaker 6: I'm going to stay there. At some point, the NFL

1243
00:59:31,680 --> 00:59:33,120
Speaker 6: is going to jump in and say, all right, we

1244
00:59:33,200 --> 00:59:36,200
Speaker 6: need to counter this. What what do we do to

1245
00:59:36,320 --> 00:59:39,320
Speaker 6: counter this so that we get the players when we

1246
00:59:39,360 --> 00:59:42,440
Speaker 6: want them, you know, and where we want them.

1247
00:59:42,640 --> 00:59:45,560
Speaker 8: Sud I don't think all right, you want to go

1248
00:59:45,640 --> 00:59:47,880
Speaker 8: real conspiracy? Had a conspiracy theory last hour.

1249
00:59:48,000 --> 00:59:50,400
Speaker 4: I love it. Here here's a real conspiracy theory for you.

1250
00:59:52,360 --> 00:59:59,120
Speaker 8: The college football is increasingly being directed by television networks. Right,

1251
00:59:59,320 --> 01:00:02,880
Speaker 8: almost all all of whom that have college football packages

1252
01:00:03,520 --> 01:00:08,080
Speaker 8: also are heavily invested in the NFL. Right, The NFL

1253
01:00:09,120 --> 01:00:11,960
Speaker 8: is on a week by week basis one of the

1254
01:00:12,080 --> 01:00:16,120
Speaker 8: few things that is still appointment television in this country.

1255
01:00:16,760 --> 01:00:18,440
Speaker 4: Right, the NFL is one of the few things that

1256
01:00:18,480 --> 01:00:19,200
Speaker 4: people are still.

1257
01:00:19,120 --> 01:00:22,080
Speaker 8: Drawing, that is drawing on average more than ten million

1258
01:00:22,120 --> 01:00:24,760
Speaker 8: people to your TV screen on any given moment. Right,

1259
01:00:25,120 --> 01:00:30,800
Speaker 8: that's the NFL, the TV. I do not see the

1260
01:00:30,840 --> 01:00:35,080
Speaker 8: powers that be a TV networks allowing things to continue

1261
01:00:35,120 --> 01:00:38,560
Speaker 8: along this way without there being some level of salary

1262
01:00:38,560 --> 01:00:41,000
Speaker 8: cap and so on and so forth, or some level

1263
01:00:41,000 --> 01:00:44,520
Speaker 8: of like split spending where like I'm a school like Maryland,

1264
01:00:44,560 --> 01:00:47,760
Speaker 8: I'm not spending on football anymore, I'm spending on basketball. Purdue,

1265
01:00:47,760 --> 01:00:50,000
Speaker 8: I'm not spending on football anymore, spending on basketball.

1266
01:00:52,240 --> 01:00:55,040
Speaker 6: You want to take another conspiracy all the way, go

1267
01:00:55,080 --> 01:00:57,880
Speaker 6: for it, the elimination of the draft. You realize how

1268
01:00:57,960 --> 01:01:01,040
Speaker 6: illegal the draft is, don't you. It's on me, of

1269
01:01:01,080 --> 01:01:03,680
Speaker 6: course it is. Imagine you coming out of the University

1270
01:01:03,720 --> 01:01:05,480
Speaker 6: of Mission and say, all right, I want to enter

1271
01:01:05,600 --> 01:01:07,880
Speaker 6: into a broadcast industry.

1272
01:01:08,280 --> 01:01:09,200
Speaker 9: We have a draft.

1273
01:01:09,680 --> 01:01:13,520
Speaker 6: We have a draft, okay, and you've been drafted by wherever.

1274
01:01:13,600 --> 01:01:15,600
Speaker 6: I don't want to, you know, insult any of our

1275
01:01:15,640 --> 01:01:18,040
Speaker 6: listeners out there, but it's a place you don't You

1276
01:01:18,120 --> 01:01:21,560
Speaker 6: have absolutely no interest in moving to Well, if you

1277
01:01:21,600 --> 01:01:24,480
Speaker 6: want to be a broadcaster, that's exactly where you're going

1278
01:01:24,520 --> 01:01:24,720
Speaker 6: to be.

1279
01:01:25,800 --> 01:01:27,560
Speaker 4: I mean, think about the draft.

1280
01:01:27,640 --> 01:01:31,760
Speaker 6: Where else what other industry has a draft other than sports?

1281
01:01:32,680 --> 01:01:35,920
Speaker 9: It is so illegal and yet they get away with it.

1282
01:01:36,360 --> 01:01:38,560
Speaker 4: There's no other industry that would.

1283
01:01:38,760 --> 01:01:43,240
Speaker 8: You would be pigeonholed by the field, right, like like

1284
01:01:43,560 --> 01:01:44,400
Speaker 8: the tech field.

1285
01:01:44,840 --> 01:01:46,200
Speaker 4: Now you may be pigeonholed by.

1286
01:01:46,200 --> 01:01:49,080
Speaker 8: Lack of options, right like you want to go, you

1287
01:01:49,120 --> 01:01:52,280
Speaker 8: want to go make four hundred thousand dollars four years

1288
01:01:52,280 --> 01:01:54,520
Speaker 8: out of college, You're going to be limited to probably

1289
01:01:54,560 --> 01:01:57,800
Speaker 8: Meta Google, so on and so forth. Right at the elite.

1290
01:01:57,480 --> 01:01:59,640
Speaker 9: Place, so the league get their choices.

1291
01:02:00,360 --> 01:02:02,480
Speaker 4: You still have your toy. You have your choice.

1292
01:02:02,640 --> 01:02:05,760
Speaker 6: If you are an elite, whatever you do in your

1293
01:02:06,200 --> 01:02:09,120
Speaker 6: field that you do, you will get a choice.

1294
01:02:09,240 --> 01:02:10,600
Speaker 9: You do not get that in sports.

1295
01:02:10,840 --> 01:02:13,040
Speaker 8: And honestly, what we're seeing right now when nil is

1296
01:02:13,120 --> 01:02:16,560
Speaker 8: kind of fascinating because without the salary cap, we're seeing

1297
01:02:16,640 --> 01:02:18,160
Speaker 8: a true free market.

1298
01:02:18,320 --> 01:02:20,480
Speaker 9: It is a total free market, and it is.

1299
01:02:20,440 --> 01:02:24,160
Speaker 4: A disaster for anybody trying to build a team.

1300
01:02:24,760 --> 01:02:27,280
Speaker 6: Well, if Mara ends up being a twenty ten guy

1301
01:02:27,320 --> 01:02:30,720
Speaker 6: and leads Michigan to the national championship next year. Then

1302
01:02:30,840 --> 01:02:33,640
Speaker 6: I'll be screaming foul, but you'll be saying hallelujah.

1303
01:02:33,760 --> 01:02:36,320
Speaker 8: Well that's until he enters the transfer foil and Rick

1304
01:02:36,360 --> 01:02:39,160
Speaker 8: Patino finds twenty million dollars to send him to Saint John's.

Speaker 6: show posted right after we get off the air. All right,

1357
01:05:22,400 --> 01:05:24,200
Speaker 6: So the big news out of the NFL this week

1358
01:05:24,320 --> 01:05:29,000
Speaker 6: was Derek Carr apparently has a bum shoulder and.

1359
01:05:29,040 --> 01:05:30,600
Speaker 8: I could have told you that I watched him play.

1360
01:05:30,760 --> 01:05:32,480
Speaker 8: Oh wait, you're talking about a new injury.

1361
01:05:32,680 --> 01:05:36,120
Speaker 6: Well apparently, but it does put his twenty twenty five

1362
01:05:36,160 --> 01:05:38,920
Speaker 6: season in jeopardy. It wasn't like you know the Saints

1363
01:05:38,920 --> 01:05:40,920
Speaker 6: that are like, okay, well, if we get a healthy

1364
01:05:41,000 --> 01:05:44,640
Speaker 6: Derek Carr, we're making a deep playoff run. Okay, that's

1365
01:05:44,800 --> 01:05:47,560
Speaker 6: not the case with Derek Carr. Derek Carr is a

1366
01:05:47,720 --> 01:05:54,880
Speaker 6: serviceable quarterback, nothing more. And so it now apportantly everyone's

1367
01:05:54,920 --> 01:05:57,600
Speaker 6: sort of in that thought that the Saints have got

1368
01:05:57,600 --> 01:06:01,240
Speaker 6: to force themselves into a position in the draft to

1369
01:06:01,280 --> 01:06:03,720
Speaker 6: move up in the draft to get shudor Sanders.

1370
01:06:03,840 --> 01:06:05,880
Speaker 9: That is, that's the hot ticket right now.

1371
01:06:07,000 --> 01:06:09,760
Speaker 6: And you know I did the other day, Martin, I

1372
01:06:09,880 --> 01:06:13,840
Speaker 6: was I went on YouTube and I wanted to just

1373
01:06:14,400 --> 01:06:19,400
Speaker 6: get some game action of cam Ward and Shardoor, Samers

1374
01:06:20,240 --> 01:06:25,440
Speaker 6: and Jackson Dart because I remember Dart at USC. You

1375
01:06:25,480 --> 01:06:27,680
Speaker 6: know what I watch when I watch game action of

1376
01:06:27,760 --> 01:06:33,200
Speaker 6: these three quarterbacks. In terms of sheer velocity on the football,

1377
01:06:34,280 --> 01:06:41,000
Speaker 6: Dart is next level. I mean when you just watch,

1378
01:06:41,120 --> 01:06:44,680
Speaker 6: you know, throws all over the field. These are accurate quarterbacks.

1379
01:06:44,880 --> 01:06:47,920
Speaker 6: But when you just see the velocity the ball getting

1380
01:06:47,920 --> 01:06:49,320
Speaker 6: from point A to point B.

1381
01:06:49,600 --> 01:06:51,960
Speaker 4: Quickly, they said it jumps out his hands.

1382
01:06:52,240 --> 01:06:53,040
Speaker 9: It really does.

1383
01:06:53,840 --> 01:06:57,640
Speaker 6: Now that doesn't necessarily mean he's the best quarterback, but

1384
01:06:57,880 --> 01:07:00,280
Speaker 6: you know, again, it's it's hard to gauge. I mean, Neil,

1385
01:07:00,360 --> 01:07:03,000
Speaker 6: we've seen guys that have big arms that turn out

1386
01:07:03,040 --> 01:07:05,520
Speaker 6: to be total busts in the NFL because the two

1387
01:07:05,600 --> 01:07:07,840
Speaker 6: things you have to have if you're going to be

1388
01:07:07,880 --> 01:07:10,000
Speaker 6: an effective elite quarterback in the NFL.

1389
01:07:10,240 --> 01:07:12,560
Speaker 9: Is you got to throw accurately?

1390
01:07:13,040 --> 01:07:14,920
Speaker 6: Yes, And you have to be able to make quick

1391
01:07:14,960 --> 01:07:17,280
Speaker 6: decisions on the field. It's all about, you know what's

1392
01:07:17,320 --> 01:07:20,760
Speaker 6: between the years. You got to make quick decisions where

1393
01:07:20,840 --> 01:07:23,040
Speaker 6: to throw it, when to check down, when to throw

1394
01:07:23,080 --> 01:07:24,720
Speaker 6: it away, when to eat it, when to take off

1395
01:07:24,720 --> 01:07:29,000
Speaker 6: a run. That's what separates the regular quarterback from the

1396
01:07:29,000 --> 01:07:29,960
Speaker 6: elite quarterbacks.

1397
01:07:30,360 --> 01:07:32,200
Speaker 9: And so I don't know if Jackson Darth.

1398
01:07:32,120 --> 01:07:35,360
Speaker 8: Is saying about the processing pre snap as well as

1399
01:07:35,400 --> 01:07:38,360
Speaker 8: post snap. Absolutely, the pre snap processing, I think we

1400
01:07:39,160 --> 01:07:42,800
Speaker 8: as a whole completely I say, please overlook, but overlook

1401
01:07:42,840 --> 01:07:45,600
Speaker 8: to a point that we have to talk, especially when

1402
01:07:45,600 --> 01:07:49,040
Speaker 8: you're evaluating these guys. Pre snap and post snap processing

1403
01:07:49,480 --> 01:07:51,480
Speaker 8: is massive, absolutely, and a.

1404
01:07:51,480 --> 01:07:54,200
Speaker 9: Lot of that's coaching as well. But can you be coach?

1405
01:07:54,520 --> 01:07:57,840
Speaker 6: I've talked to many coaches over the years, offensive coordinators,

1406
01:07:57,960 --> 01:08:00,760
Speaker 6: quarterback coaches that will tell you all the same thing.

1407
01:08:01,600 --> 01:08:04,080
Speaker 6: You can try to teach it, but if they don't,

1408
01:08:05,160 --> 01:08:07,640
Speaker 6: if they can't actually deliver on the field, there's nothing

1409
01:08:07,680 --> 01:08:09,840
Speaker 6: you can do. It doesn't matter how gifted they are

1410
01:08:09,840 --> 01:08:13,160
Speaker 6: and throwing the football it's the idea of processing information

1411
01:08:13,320 --> 01:08:15,960
Speaker 6: and then processing on the field, as you say, before

1412
01:08:15,960 --> 01:08:17,639
Speaker 6: the snap, after the snap, during the play.

1413
01:08:17,680 --> 01:08:18,680
Speaker 9: They got to do all that to.

1414
01:08:18,640 --> 01:08:21,240
Speaker 6: Be elite, and there's really no way to tell until

1415
01:08:21,280 --> 01:08:23,679
Speaker 6: you actually put them in a game at the NFL

1416
01:08:23,800 --> 01:08:26,960
Speaker 6: level where everything is moving so so quickly. But that

1417
01:08:27,080 --> 01:08:29,679
Speaker 6: being said, if I'm the New Orleans Saints and we're

1418
01:08:29,680 --> 01:08:32,320
Speaker 6: gonna hear and you know how this works, Martin all

1419
01:08:32,640 --> 01:08:34,760
Speaker 6: these last couple of weeks before the draft, we're gonna

1420
01:08:34,800 --> 01:08:37,639
Speaker 6: hear everything. Remember a couple of years ago, Will Levis

1421
01:08:37,720 --> 01:08:39,200
Speaker 6: is gonna be the first quarterback.

1422
01:08:38,840 --> 01:08:39,320
Speaker 4: In the draft.

1423
01:08:39,400 --> 01:08:42,960
Speaker 8: I famously said here on Fox Sports Radio, I will

1424
01:08:43,000 --> 01:08:45,599
Speaker 8: eat the piece of paper in my hand.

1425
01:08:45,800 --> 01:08:48,000
Speaker 4: If Will Levis is drafted in the top five.

1426
01:08:48,160 --> 01:08:50,360
Speaker 9: They all said he would be picked ahead of CJ. Stroud.

1427
01:08:50,400 --> 01:08:52,479
Speaker 6: You remember they said Strout had some kind of test

1428
01:08:52,520 --> 01:08:55,760
Speaker 6: scoring that was below average. Will Levis is you know

1429
01:08:55,880 --> 01:08:58,559
Speaker 6: coming up. Look look for the Texans to take Will

1430
01:08:58,640 --> 01:09:02,519
Speaker 6: Levis two overall. Well, they obviously took.

1431
01:09:02,320 --> 01:09:02,960
Speaker 9: The right guy.

1432
01:09:04,920 --> 01:09:07,479
Speaker 6: But if I'm the Saints right now, the idea of

1433
01:09:07,560 --> 01:09:13,640
Speaker 6: moving up for Chardeur Sanders, why the one thing that

1434
01:09:13,760 --> 01:09:16,040
Speaker 6: and we don't have Adam Kaplan on our show today.

1435
01:09:16,080 --> 01:09:19,160
Speaker 6: He'll join us next week as we really get ready

1436
01:09:19,160 --> 01:09:19,839
Speaker 6: for the draft.

1437
01:09:20,160 --> 01:09:21,720
Speaker 9: But the one thing he said.

1438
01:09:21,640 --> 01:09:25,280
Speaker 6: Is not happening right now is a lot of noise

1439
01:09:25,400 --> 01:09:27,200
Speaker 6: about teams moving up.

1440
01:09:27,360 --> 01:09:29,479
Speaker 4: In this track. Jason Light said the same thing I had.

1441
01:09:29,479 --> 01:09:33,960
Speaker 8: Tampa Bay Bucks buccaneer, Tampa Bay Bucks general manager. He

1442
01:09:34,080 --> 01:09:36,040
Speaker 8: said the same thing, saying, I don't expect to see

1443
01:09:36,040 --> 01:09:38,160
Speaker 8: a lot of teams moving up in this draft, seeing

1444
01:09:38,200 --> 01:09:40,880
Speaker 8: like you did kind of a flat level draft here,

1445
01:09:41,160 --> 01:09:42,960
Speaker 8: a lot of starters, not so many stars.

1446
01:09:43,120 --> 01:09:45,839
Speaker 9: Well here here's my point when I brought up Jackson Dart.

1447
01:09:46,040 --> 01:09:48,280
Speaker 6: If the Saints are hell bent on a quarterback, and

1448
01:09:48,360 --> 01:09:52,120
Speaker 6: let's say cam Ward and Shadur Sanders are off the board,

1449
01:09:52,760 --> 01:09:56,479
Speaker 6: then you think you can take a Jackson Dart. I mean,

1450
01:09:56,600 --> 01:09:59,519
Speaker 6: I don't know where Jaln Milroe fits right now. Probably

1451
01:09:59,520 --> 01:10:02,280
Speaker 6: a second maybe if you're the Saints, you decide we're

1452
01:10:02,280 --> 01:10:03,040
Speaker 6: not gonna use.

1453
01:10:02,920 --> 01:10:05,000
Speaker 9: A first round pick. That you know.

1454
01:10:05,400 --> 01:10:09,679
Speaker 6: We talk about this all the time. When teams reach

1455
01:10:10,400 --> 01:10:14,599
Speaker 6: based on position, they always seem to fail. It always

1456
01:10:14,640 --> 01:10:18,880
Speaker 6: seems to be best player on the board. Look at

1457
01:10:18,880 --> 01:10:21,120
Speaker 6: your board, Look at your draft board. Every team has

1458
01:10:21,160 --> 01:10:24,559
Speaker 6: a draft board. You've ranked all the players. That doesn't

1459
01:10:24,560 --> 01:10:27,360
Speaker 6: mean every team has the same rankings, but your people

1460
01:10:27,360 --> 01:10:30,839
Speaker 6: have put a board together. When the Green Bay Packers

1461
01:10:30,880 --> 01:10:33,880
Speaker 6: selected Aaron Rodgers in the first round, when they had

1462
01:10:33,920 --> 01:10:36,479
Speaker 6: obviously one of the elite quarterbacks in the Brett Fire.

1463
01:10:36,400 --> 01:10:39,400
Speaker 9: It didn't make any sense. What are you doing?

1464
01:10:39,520 --> 01:10:42,519
Speaker 6: Why are you wasting a first round pick on Aaron Rodgers?

1465
01:10:42,520 --> 01:10:45,280
Speaker 6: You don't need a quarterback? And their answer was simple,

1466
01:10:46,360 --> 01:10:47,799
Speaker 6: he was like our number one guy.

1467
01:10:47,640 --> 01:10:48,360
Speaker 9: On the draft board.

1468
01:10:48,520 --> 01:10:50,439
Speaker 6: We obviously didn't think he was still be there, but

1469
01:10:51,000 --> 01:10:52,920
Speaker 6: we're looking at our draft board and it's.

1470
01:10:52,840 --> 01:10:57,599
Speaker 8: Like, Uh, if somebody's gonna give me a Lamborghini, I'll

1471
01:10:57,640 --> 01:11:01,640
Speaker 8: take it. And figure outance you're gonna give it to me,

1472
01:11:01,800 --> 01:11:02,400
Speaker 8: I'll take it.

1473
01:11:02,479 --> 01:11:05,760
Speaker 6: So I don't know how the Saints draft board is

1474
01:11:05,800 --> 01:11:09,639
Speaker 6: gonna look. But if you if those two quarterbacks are

1475
01:11:09,640 --> 01:11:12,000
Speaker 6: the only quarterbacks you have high on your draft board

1476
01:11:12,280 --> 01:11:16,840
Speaker 6: and they're gone, don't take a quarterback. Don't take a quarterback.

1477
01:11:16,960 --> 01:11:19,519
Speaker 6: I got news for the Saints. A quarterback, a rookie quarterback,

1478
01:11:19,600 --> 01:11:22,000
Speaker 6: is not gonna make much difference. You are a seven

1479
01:11:22,080 --> 01:11:24,519
Speaker 6: and ten football team, that's what you are, and you

1480
01:11:24,600 --> 01:11:26,960
Speaker 6: need a lot of pieces to get to being a

1481
01:11:27,000 --> 01:11:29,800
Speaker 6: ten and seven or eleven and six football team more

1482
01:11:29,840 --> 01:11:32,840
Speaker 6: than just a quarterback. So I don't think the Saints

1483
01:11:32,840 --> 01:11:34,679
Speaker 6: are gonna move up. Some people are thinking, oh yeah,

1484
01:11:34,800 --> 01:11:37,280
Speaker 6: they're gonna try to move up. If they do, I

1485
01:11:37,320 --> 01:11:39,360
Speaker 6: think it's gonna be a big mistake.

1486
01:11:39,800 --> 01:11:42,640
Speaker 8: Especially they're not to bore people or to go to

1487
01:11:43,040 --> 01:11:45,720
Speaker 8: rotal world spow track on it. But like when you

1488
01:11:45,760 --> 01:11:51,120
Speaker 8: look at this Saints salary cap situation, this team has

1489
01:11:51,280 --> 01:11:54,160
Speaker 8: been mismanaged for years.

1490
01:11:54,400 --> 01:11:57,200
Speaker 9: You know what they're hit number on? Derek carrs it's

1491
01:11:57,240 --> 01:12:00,320
Speaker 9: gonna be sixty eight million dollars. Thank you for.

1492
01:12:01,840 --> 01:12:02,960
Speaker 4: All due respect.

1493
01:12:03,120 --> 01:12:06,639
Speaker 8: A man who has won off the top of my head,

1494
01:12:06,880 --> 01:12:12,360
Speaker 8: I believe one playoff game and played in like three total.

1495
01:12:14,120 --> 01:12:16,519
Speaker 8: A man who's won that double digit games in his

1496
01:12:16,640 --> 01:12:24,040
Speaker 8: career twice. Like the idea that Derek Carr, what the

1497
01:12:24,080 --> 01:12:29,320
Speaker 8: Saints did with Derek Carr, especially Steve Baker Mayfield was

1498
01:12:29,320 --> 01:12:32,000
Speaker 8: available at the same time for three years and one

1499
01:12:32,080 --> 01:12:34,200
Speaker 8: hundred million dollars. I know that to be true because

1500
01:12:34,200 --> 01:12:36,120
Speaker 8: he signed the contract and he's still playing on it.

1501
01:12:36,439 --> 01:12:38,719
Speaker 8: And you know what they've done since won the division.

1502
01:12:39,040 --> 01:12:41,439
Speaker 8: As a Saints fan, I was less than pleased about that.

1503
01:12:42,800 --> 01:12:44,720
Speaker 8: I don't think Derek carrs ever won a playoff game?

1504
01:12:44,720 --> 01:12:45,440
Speaker 9: Has he?

1505
01:12:45,439 --> 01:12:46,760
Speaker 4: He may never have won a playoff game.

1506
01:12:47,320 --> 01:12:48,639
Speaker 9: Remember is one big year.

1507
01:12:48,640 --> 01:12:51,040
Speaker 8: He got hurt, he broke his leg, and Connor Cook

1508
01:12:51,080 --> 01:12:54,840
Speaker 8: started that playoff game. But overall, and you know what

1509
01:12:54,840 --> 01:12:57,120
Speaker 8: the Saints did. Honestly, this is why the Saints don't

1510
01:12:57,120 --> 01:13:00,280
Speaker 8: deserve should Dor Sanders. They don't deserve Jackson Dart. They

1511
01:13:00,280 --> 01:13:02,400
Speaker 8: don't deserve a good quarterback that's going to come in

1512
01:13:02,439 --> 01:13:05,280
Speaker 8: here and change the city. Like they don't deserve what c. J.

1513
01:13:05,400 --> 01:13:07,600
Speaker 8: Strout did in Houston or what Patrick Mahomes did in

1514
01:13:07,640 --> 01:13:09,479
Speaker 8: Kansas City. As a guy who was a Florida le

1515
01:13:09,600 --> 01:13:11,519
Speaker 8: tattooed on my back, I'm a dead Saints fan.

1516
01:13:11,800 --> 01:13:12,960
Speaker 4: It will be like I grew up.

1517
01:13:13,040 --> 01:13:15,599
Speaker 8: That's why I grew up loving the sport, grew up

1518
01:13:15,840 --> 01:13:18,320
Speaker 8: wanted to be a sports commentator because I want to

1519
01:13:18,320 --> 01:13:20,599
Speaker 8: talk to people about this team. They saw the worst

1520
01:13:20,640 --> 01:13:24,040
Speaker 8: head coach and quarterback pairing in the history of the NFL,

1521
01:13:24,560 --> 01:13:26,880
Speaker 8: Dennis Allen and Derek Carr and Oakland, and said, you

1522
01:13:26,880 --> 01:13:28,800
Speaker 8: know what we gotta do. Anytime you got both of

1523
01:13:28,800 --> 01:13:30,280
Speaker 8: those two guys availble, but you got to run it

1524
01:13:30,320 --> 01:13:32,240
Speaker 8: back and then they did it. And that's why they're

1525
01:13:32,280 --> 01:13:35,000
Speaker 8: here right now with the team that has like more

1526
01:13:35,080 --> 01:13:38,280
Speaker 8: thirty year olds on it then a grad school roster,

1527
01:13:38,520 --> 01:13:41,639
Speaker 8: like a grad school a roster, and everybody's getting paid.

1528
01:13:41,840 --> 01:13:46,200
Speaker 8: Alvakamara was a class of twenty, what's seventeen, and he's

1529
01:13:46,280 --> 01:13:49,200
Speaker 8: your best offensive option to stay still deserve a good quarterback.

1530
01:13:49,240 --> 01:13:51,759
Speaker 9: For the Riker. Derek Carr's career playoff record is.

1531
01:13:51,600 --> 01:13:54,200
Speaker 6: Oh and one Owen one oh and one oh. That

1532
01:13:54,320 --> 01:13:56,759
Speaker 6: is your career guy, and that because of that sixty

1533
01:13:56,760 --> 01:13:59,519
Speaker 6: eight million dollar hit. As far as the cap is concerned,

1534
01:14:00,000 --> 01:14:02,639
Speaker 6: you can't get Kirk Coussins, they can't sign Aaron Rodgers.

1535
01:14:02,680 --> 01:14:04,200
Speaker 6: None of that is gonna happen when you have to

1536
01:14:04,200 --> 01:14:07,519
Speaker 6: pay out sixty eight million. So yeah, they may go

1537
01:14:07,560 --> 01:14:09,840
Speaker 6: to the draft, but I wouldn't use a high draft pick.

1538
01:14:10,040 --> 01:14:12,200
Speaker 6: I'd wait till the second round, roll the dice, and

1539
01:14:12,240 --> 01:14:13,960
Speaker 6: maybe wait for next year.

1540
01:14:14,160 --> 01:14:17,280
Speaker 8: No, the only logical plan not only just wait for

1541
01:14:17,320 --> 01:14:19,920
Speaker 8: next year when maybe you got these arch mannings coming out.

1542
01:14:20,240 --> 01:14:22,800
Speaker 8: Really you should just play this out for the next

1543
01:14:22,800 --> 01:14:26,439
Speaker 8: two seasons. Let these some of these contracts expire and

1544

Speaker 4: She just went to the transfer portal.

1584
01:16:33,080 --> 01:16:36,280
Speaker 8: The first time I saw her play, I reminded me

Speaker 9: you can't look at it that way again.

1591
01:17:03,760 --> 01:17:05,559
Speaker 4: Look at it that way when when we when we.

1592
01:17:07,960 --> 01:17:11,800
Speaker 6: Entered the Kumpo, it was like to a tongue of

1593
01:17:11,840 --> 01:17:16,400
Speaker 6: iloa and you're like, there's no N. It's it looks

1594
01:17:16,439 --> 01:17:20,639
Speaker 6: like to a tag t a G. Right, sure, where's

1595
01:17:20,680 --> 01:17:23,920
Speaker 6: the N. And then there was Mike Krzyzewski. You're like,

1596
01:17:23,960 --> 01:17:25,920
Speaker 6: that's Krazeuski.

1597
01:17:26,080 --> 01:17:29,400

01:17:29,600 --> 01:17:32,520
Speaker 9: I will how do you get Shazhevsky out of Krazuski.

1599
01:17:33,200 --> 01:17:36,559
Speaker 8: Of all of the names, Shazewski was the worst because

1600
01:17:36,560 --> 01:17:38,680
Speaker 8: there's not the little vowels in there.

1601
01:17:38,720 --> 01:17:39,240
Speaker 9: There's nothing.

1602
01:17:40,560 --> 01:17:43,360
Speaker 6: You look at it, it's Krazeuski and he says, no,

1603
01:17:43,439 --> 01:17:44,320
Speaker 6: it's Shazhevski.

1604
01:17:44,560 --> 01:17:48,320
Speaker 8: It legitimately looks like reading a different language. Like I correct,

1605
01:17:48,400 --> 01:17:51,040
Speaker 8: I see all these letters that are familiar, but when

1606
01:17:51,040 --> 01:17:53,400
Speaker 8: I try to form these shells with my mouth, it's

1607
01:17:53,439 --> 01:17:54,160
Speaker 8: a foreign thing.

1608
01:17:54,880 --> 01:17:57,200
Speaker 6: I mean, I remember Liam when this guy broke through

1609
01:17:57,240 --> 01:17:59,559
Speaker 6: and I'm like, what are you saying? None of what

1610
01:17:59,600 --> 01:18:04,240
Speaker 6: you're saying and is in that spelling nothing Shrzhevsky out of.

1611
01:18:04,280 --> 01:18:06,120
Speaker 9: K r z e y c e W s A. I.

1612
01:18:06,280 --> 01:18:08,400
Speaker 4: Then Steve turned over to Bob Knight and said, get

01:18:08,400 --> 01:18:09,200
Speaker 4: a load of this guy.

1614

01:18:18,640 --> 01:18:18,960
Speaker 4: And uh.

1618
01:18:19,760 --> 01:18:23,400
Speaker 10: The correct way to pronounce my last name is malay.

1619
01:18:24,800 --> 01:18:29,800
Speaker 6: There it is a Malayava easy, easy, tonight Malaya.

1620
01:18:30,160 --> 01:18:34,000
Speaker 9: There's six syllables in that last name, Nico Malayava. There

1621
01:18:34,040 --> 01:18:36,040
Speaker 9: we go. I can even do a little faster there

01:18:37,080 --> 01:18:40,000

Speaker 4: Give me ah, I'll go with Bryson.

1626
01:18:48,680 --> 01:18:52,639
Speaker 6: Going with Bryson. That's that is that's probably a smart pick.

1627
01:18:53,720 --> 01:18:55,640
Speaker 6: I don't want to tell you know what. I do

1628
01:18:55,800 --> 01:18:58,559
Speaker 6: not want to jinx Rory. I don't even want to

1629
01:18:58,560 --> 01:19:01,519
Speaker 6: make I want him to win so bad. I will

1630
01:19:01,520 --> 01:19:02,640
Speaker 6: not make a predictab.

1631
01:19:02,320 --> 01:19:05,240
Speaker 4: I don't want to root for the man's downfall. But
