0:00:00.520 --> 0:00:03.680
<v Speaker 1>Welcome to the Greatest, a production of I Heart Radio,

0:00:10.600 --> 0:00:13.880
<v Speaker 1>and welcome back to I said, welcome back up, Tom.

0:00:13.920 --> 0:00:17.400
<v Speaker 1>I guess it's because we took a break to the Greatest.

0:00:17.680 --> 0:00:19.800
<v Speaker 1>How you doing, Megan, I'm good. How are you? I'm

0:00:19.840 --> 0:00:22.079
<v Speaker 1>doing good. It's it's good to be back. Your name

0:00:22.160 --> 0:00:24.759
<v Speaker 1>is c J. My name is c J told, my

0:00:24.840 --> 0:00:27.200
<v Speaker 1>name is Megan. Sorry, I'm just like getting back in

0:00:27.280 --> 0:00:30.080
<v Speaker 1>the groove of this. Yesterday you said we got to

0:00:30.080 --> 0:00:32.360
<v Speaker 1>do a podcast, and I forgot we had a podcast.

0:00:33.320 --> 0:00:35.840
<v Speaker 1>I did know. You've had a lot of life stuff

0:00:35.840 --> 0:00:38.120
<v Speaker 1>going on, and so it's good to get back and

0:00:38.159 --> 0:00:40.559
<v Speaker 1>just talk about the trivial stuff like sports. But we

0:00:40.600 --> 0:00:46.800
<v Speaker 1>did miss you, guys. We missed ranking the greatest crop

0:00:47.000 --> 0:00:50.320
<v Speaker 1>shots ever. That's what we were going to do last week.

0:00:50.640 --> 0:00:53.360
<v Speaker 1>My number one was going to be when Lebron accidentally

0:00:53.360 --> 0:00:58.279
<v Speaker 1>showed his penis talking about that. So there you are,

0:00:58.480 --> 0:01:00.480
<v Speaker 1>sorry for missing last week. Do you want to tell

0:01:00.480 --> 0:01:02.040
<v Speaker 1>them your number one? No, that could have been my

0:01:02.120 --> 0:01:06.959
<v Speaker 1>number one pick for this week's topic. Okay, alright, so no, um,

0:01:07.040 --> 0:01:09.720
<v Speaker 1>no spoils for this week, but just a little uh

0:01:09.800 --> 0:01:11.920
<v Speaker 1>teaser of what would have been last week? What would

0:01:11.920 --> 0:01:13.720
<v Speaker 1>have been last week, we'll do that as a minisode.

0:01:13.959 --> 0:01:16.600
<v Speaker 1>Is that a Is that a term? A minis um?

0:01:16.840 --> 0:01:19.680
<v Speaker 1>Joining us this week is one of our dearest, dearest friends,

0:01:19.680 --> 0:01:22.600
<v Speaker 1>one of the funniest comedians we know. Some would say

0:01:22.680 --> 0:01:27.040
<v Speaker 1>the m v P of our wedding very like in

0:01:27.160 --> 0:01:30.920
<v Speaker 1>terms of original content, this guy brought it. And yes,

0:01:31.200 --> 0:01:33.679
<v Speaker 1>without further ado, let's welcome our guests for this week,

0:01:33.840 --> 0:01:36.640
<v Speaker 1>Tommy McNamara. Wow, I'm so excited to be here. If

0:01:36.640 --> 0:01:40.600
<v Speaker 1>you can't get Lebron's penis, you can get me. You

0:01:40.640 --> 0:01:43.400
<v Speaker 1>know what we weren't actually going to interview is Penis.

0:01:43.520 --> 0:01:46.760
<v Speaker 1>We were just gonna send everybody to the link of

0:01:46.800 --> 0:01:50.320
<v Speaker 1>the video to rewatch him. But interviewing is a really

0:01:50.320 --> 0:01:52.160
<v Speaker 1>good idea that actually I'm gonna put that up on

0:01:52.160 --> 0:01:57.680
<v Speaker 1>the white board for next time I interview Lebron's penis. Guy. No,

0:01:57.920 --> 0:02:01.520
<v Speaker 1>you know Dr Fauci and Braun at the same pr guy.

0:02:02.520 --> 0:02:07.200
<v Speaker 1>So we just got to get in columns somebody that

0:02:07.240 --> 0:02:09.320
<v Speaker 1>we did sign an NBA with. But I'm happy we

0:02:09.360 --> 0:02:11.080
<v Speaker 1>know that, and I don't think those were part of

0:02:11.080 --> 0:02:14.119
<v Speaker 1>the terms of the NBA. Tommy, how are you? I'm

0:02:14.160 --> 0:02:17.320
<v Speaker 1>doing great. Yeah, it's been a nice, nice weekend. Dr

0:02:17.400 --> 0:02:21.640
<v Speaker 1>Faucci went to my college, like holy Cross? Holy Cross?

0:02:22.200 --> 0:02:25.080
<v Speaker 1>So did my grand My grandpa went there on a

0:02:25.080 --> 0:02:29.720
<v Speaker 1>basketball scholarship, Yes, which I love that fact. He was

0:02:29.880 --> 0:02:34.359
<v Speaker 1>five seven. Maybe it was the time. Yeah, in same

0:02:34.440 --> 0:02:37.400
<v Speaker 1>with the doctor of Sports Bill Simmons, he went to

0:02:37.680 --> 0:02:42.600
<v Speaker 1>holy Cross. The list keeps getting better. There's a big

0:02:42.600 --> 0:02:48.400
<v Speaker 1>statue of him and house in Jacko Onion Rings yelling

0:02:48.440 --> 0:02:51.680
<v Speaker 1>about the Celtics. Did any notable women go to holy Cross?

0:02:52.720 --> 0:02:58.000
<v Speaker 1>Of course I can't think of right now. Okay, Tommy,

0:02:58.080 --> 0:03:02.760
<v Speaker 1>you're um, You're in your bedroom surrounded by I see

0:03:03.320 --> 0:03:10.200
<v Speaker 1>balls banner, a Cubs flag? Who is batting Chris Bryant? Okay, great, Yeah.

0:03:10.240 --> 0:03:12.680
<v Speaker 1>So every time I zoom with someone, they're like, oh, cool,

0:03:12.680 --> 0:03:14.880
<v Speaker 1>you're at your parents house. You're from your childhood bedroom.

0:03:14.919 --> 0:03:17.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, no, this is my third year old man

0:03:17.280 --> 0:03:19.640
<v Speaker 1>bedroom and this is how I've chosen to decorate it

0:03:19.720 --> 0:03:22.320
<v Speaker 1>with all sports memorabilia. Are you and your girlfriend living

0:03:22.400 --> 0:03:26.000
<v Speaker 1>together yet? No? No? But basically, okay, when you put

0:03:26.000 --> 0:03:29.560
<v Speaker 1>that pressure on the man, I'm only asking that in

0:03:29.680 --> 0:03:32.960
<v Speaker 1>terms of, like, how does she feel about your decorating?

0:03:33.280 --> 0:03:36.200
<v Speaker 1>I think she's learned a lot about the Cubs because

0:03:36.200 --> 0:03:38.280
<v Speaker 1>I have all the World Series stats on this poster

0:03:38.360 --> 0:03:40.400
<v Speaker 1>in the back and you can kind of read which

0:03:40.400 --> 0:03:42.640
<v Speaker 1>games they won. I think she's been studying it when

0:03:42.720 --> 0:03:45.160
<v Speaker 1>I'm not in the room. I'm assuming she's studying on

0:03:45.680 --> 0:03:49.560
<v Speaker 1>the wall, regurgitating the facts to you. And at dinner

0:03:50.040 --> 0:03:53.280
<v Speaker 1>she's going to have like a Gloria on Jeopardy and

0:03:53.320 --> 0:03:57.280
<v Speaker 1>White Man Can't Jump moment where it's like Cubs World

0:03:57.360 --> 0:03:59.960
<v Speaker 1>Series victory and she's gonna be like, man, I feel

0:04:00.040 --> 0:04:03.040
<v Speaker 1>can hate how Tommy decorates, but now I know every

0:04:03.080 --> 0:04:09.360
<v Speaker 1>single answer. Yeah, it's all good, Sammy. I must called you.

0:04:09.400 --> 0:04:16.760
<v Speaker 1>Sammy knocked us through the seventy Tommy sang an original

0:04:16.800 --> 0:04:20.880
<v Speaker 1>song on our wedding, and I have been seeing people

0:04:21.160 --> 0:04:24.280
<v Speaker 1>over the last few weeks and it has been brought

0:04:24.360 --> 0:04:27.800
<v Speaker 1>up to me by every single person i've seen. Really, yes,

0:04:28.120 --> 0:04:30.720
<v Speaker 1>that is very exciting to me. I think you're like

0:04:30.800 --> 0:04:34.479
<v Speaker 1>my mom's favorite comedian, because you know, she went to

0:04:34.480 --> 0:04:36.480
<v Speaker 1>the wedding and she knew all of our friends were comedians,

0:04:36.480 --> 0:04:38.680
<v Speaker 1>but no one was being funny, you know, to her,

0:04:38.760 --> 0:04:42.320
<v Speaker 1>except for you, who like had it before. You managed

0:04:42.360 --> 0:04:45.159
<v Speaker 1>to do a show at our wedding. During the ceremony,

0:04:45.240 --> 0:04:48.400
<v Speaker 1>and it was amazing. You got time. Well I knew that,

0:04:48.520 --> 0:04:50.240
<v Speaker 1>you know, comedy was going to shut down. I was like,

0:04:50.279 --> 0:04:52.680
<v Speaker 1>I need to get time wherever I can. Any time

0:04:52.720 --> 0:04:55.520
<v Speaker 1>I have a crowd, I need to perform. And there

0:04:55.600 --> 0:04:58.200
<v Speaker 1>was some industry there. My managers were there. They saw

0:04:59.279 --> 0:05:03.039
<v Speaker 1>you would have gotten Montreal this summer. If only Jeff

0:05:03.040 --> 0:05:05.760
<v Speaker 1>Singer had been in our wedding. If Jeff Singer was

0:05:05.800 --> 0:05:08.960
<v Speaker 1>getting married this year, I would be at his wedding.

0:05:12.320 --> 0:05:14.560
<v Speaker 1>I just get invited to industry weddings. I don't get.

0:05:15.360 --> 0:05:18.479
<v Speaker 1>That's very insided. People listening. That is the guy who

0:05:18.480 --> 0:05:22.080
<v Speaker 1>decides people's careers in this business for some reason. Um.

0:05:22.320 --> 0:05:26.559
<v Speaker 1>But so, Tommy, your your allegiances lie in all Chicago sports?

0:05:26.640 --> 0:05:29.920
<v Speaker 1>Is that correct? Yes, all Chicago pro sports. Notre Dame

0:05:30.000 --> 0:05:32.159
<v Speaker 1>for college because my dad went there. But mostly the

0:05:32.200 --> 0:05:33.960
<v Speaker 1>teams I care about the most there. Yeah, Cubs and

0:05:34.000 --> 0:05:38.360
<v Speaker 1>Bears and Bulls. Nice. How do you feel about the Bulls?

0:05:38.960 --> 0:05:41.000
<v Speaker 1>I guess the last few things that happened with them

0:05:41.040 --> 0:05:44.920
<v Speaker 1>they fired boiling, which is great. Um, and then they

0:05:44.960 --> 0:05:47.960
<v Speaker 1>got the what what pick do they have fourth for? Yeah?

0:05:48.080 --> 0:05:51.159
<v Speaker 1>How do you feel about that? I'm really excited I'm

0:05:51.279 --> 0:05:54.320
<v Speaker 1>very excited for new front office and a new coach.

0:05:54.320 --> 0:05:56.320
<v Speaker 1>I took them so long to fire Boiling that it

0:05:56.320 --> 0:05:59.919
<v Speaker 1>made me really nervous. I was like, I mean, they

0:06:00.040 --> 0:06:02.920
<v Speaker 1>come longer than most people thought they would, Like they

0:06:02.960 --> 0:06:06.719
<v Speaker 1>thought new GM and everything, like he's definitely gone and no, yeah,

0:06:06.760 --> 0:06:08.680
<v Speaker 1>I thought it was going to be literally his first action,

0:06:08.800 --> 0:06:11.440
<v Speaker 1>like before he decorates his office, he's fired Jim Boiler,

0:06:11.720 --> 0:06:13.800
<v Speaker 1>like he has his moving box in his hand, and

0:06:13.839 --> 0:06:16.440
<v Speaker 1>Boiling is getting fired at that moment. But now my

0:06:16.560 --> 0:06:18.440
<v Speaker 1>dream is that Jim Boylan will get hired by thee

0:06:21.160 --> 0:06:23.680
<v Speaker 1>because the greatest meltdown in the history of basketball, and

0:06:24.680 --> 0:06:27.400
<v Speaker 1>they're already like halfway through that meltdown, you know, so

0:06:27.480 --> 0:06:31.960
<v Speaker 1>they just need someone to finish it off. Football shockingly

0:06:32.040 --> 0:06:36.880
<v Speaker 1>starts on Thursday. I can't believe it. We're barreling towards it.

0:06:36.880 --> 0:06:42.040
<v Speaker 1>It's coming despite all outside forces, but it is happening.

0:06:42.720 --> 0:06:46.440
<v Speaker 1>Mitch Trovitsky has been named the starter as far as

0:06:46.640 --> 0:06:51.360
<v Speaker 1>I'm concerned. He beat out Nick Foles in in training camp.

0:06:51.960 --> 0:06:55.640
<v Speaker 1>How how do you feel about this Bear's season? I

0:06:55.680 --> 0:06:59.040
<v Speaker 1>am like the biggest Mitch. I don't know what it is.

0:06:59.160 --> 0:07:01.320
<v Speaker 1>I every time I'm watching the game, I hate him,

0:07:01.400 --> 0:07:04.200
<v Speaker 1>and then whenever anyone says anything bad about him, like

0:07:04.240 --> 0:07:08.320
<v Speaker 1>give him another time. And I still feel that. Ways,

0:07:08.320 --> 0:07:10.160
<v Speaker 1>Like when he got named the starter, I was excited,

0:07:10.200 --> 0:07:11.960
<v Speaker 1>Like in the off season, I really wanted them to

0:07:12.000 --> 0:07:14.880
<v Speaker 1>get Teddy Bridgewater. That was like I had my heart

0:07:14.880 --> 0:07:17.000
<v Speaker 1>set on that, and they got fools, which was kind

0:07:17.000 --> 0:07:19.920
<v Speaker 1>of like, he's not a guaranteed starter. You know, obviously

0:07:19.920 --> 0:07:21.920
<v Speaker 1>he wanted super Bowl, but it wasn't like it wasn't

0:07:21.960 --> 0:07:23.600
<v Speaker 1>the most exciting thing to me. So I'm happy that

0:07:23.640 --> 0:07:26.720
<v Speaker 1>they're going with Mitch. And you know, Cordon Patterson said

0:07:26.720 --> 0:07:28.520
<v Speaker 1>that he thinks he's a whole new player now, which

0:07:28.560 --> 0:07:32.680
<v Speaker 1>someone says every year and which is also kind of

0:07:32.720 --> 0:07:35.600
<v Speaker 1>a dig in and of itself too, Like, Mitch, we

0:07:35.680 --> 0:07:37.760
<v Speaker 1>know you feel good about the last few years. We

0:07:37.840 --> 0:07:41.200
<v Speaker 1>do not, though, um so we're just gonna pretend that

0:07:41.240 --> 0:07:44.360
<v Speaker 1>you're a whole new person now. Yes, no, Yeah, Mitch

0:07:44.440 --> 0:07:47.400
<v Speaker 1>is like a Chicago quarterback who is bad and you

0:07:47.440 --> 0:07:49.480
<v Speaker 1>feel bad for me. But he's not like an asshole.

0:07:49.520 --> 0:07:53.800
<v Speaker 1>He's not like a you know, like to some extent,

0:07:54.440 --> 0:07:57.760
<v Speaker 1>like Mitch, I feel very maternal over him, Like, yeah,

0:07:58.160 --> 0:08:01.080
<v Speaker 1>people are mean to him, I'm just well, and I

0:08:01.120 --> 0:08:04.280
<v Speaker 1>think Chicago and especially Bears fans are just like so

0:08:04.360 --> 0:08:09.920
<v Speaker 1>relentless because you have this history of having not great quarterbacks,

0:08:10.400 --> 0:08:13.120
<v Speaker 1>and so he's almost like kind of eat well. And

0:08:13.160 --> 0:08:15.840
<v Speaker 1>then the ma homes and there's just like a lot

0:08:15.960 --> 0:08:21.080
<v Speaker 1>of things that kind of didn't go right, but this

0:08:21.240 --> 0:08:28.040
<v Speaker 1>could it seems like your division is fine. Yeah, the

0:08:28.040 --> 0:08:30.160
<v Speaker 1>Packers aren't gonna do as well as they didn't remains

0:08:30.200 --> 0:08:32.880
<v Speaker 1>to be seen. You know, the Vikings seem like they

0:08:32.880 --> 0:08:37.320
<v Speaker 1>could be pretty good, and then the Lions are you know,

0:08:37.440 --> 0:08:42.160
<v Speaker 1>a coin flip towards disaster or being good every year. Yeah.

0:08:42.280 --> 0:08:44.640
<v Speaker 1>And the thing I love about Mitch is, you know,

0:08:44.679 --> 0:08:47.360
<v Speaker 1>whenever someone gets drafted, people immediately go through their old

0:08:47.360 --> 0:08:50.200
<v Speaker 1>tweets and try to cancel them. And the closest Mitch

0:08:50.280 --> 0:08:52.200
<v Speaker 1>got to that was an old tweet where he said

0:08:52.240 --> 0:08:55.800
<v Speaker 1>I love kissing titties. That's what. It's the worst thing

0:08:55.880 --> 0:09:00.439
<v Speaker 1>this guy's got. Can cancel someone over that, but that like, oh,

0:09:00.520 --> 0:09:05.400
<v Speaker 1>look at this tweet. That's like, yeah, that's great. Kissing

0:09:05.400 --> 0:09:08.200
<v Speaker 1>them is like so like the pornographic way to say

0:09:08.200 --> 0:09:10.520
<v Speaker 1>that is sucking them. But he's like, no, I just

0:09:10.559 --> 0:09:12.640
<v Speaker 1>like to kiss him. Yeah, they're nice. You kiss things

0:09:12.679 --> 0:09:16.640
<v Speaker 1>you like in deserve respect. Well, yeah, I don't know.

0:09:16.720 --> 0:09:18.160
<v Speaker 1>I was gonna say last year it was looked at

0:09:18.280 --> 0:09:20.440
<v Speaker 1>such a disaster and they went eight and eight. You know,

0:09:20.520 --> 0:09:22.720
<v Speaker 1>it's like, if that's the worst things are going to go,

0:09:22.840 --> 0:09:26.360
<v Speaker 1>then I don't know. I feel confident, you know, if

0:09:26.400 --> 0:09:31.199
<v Speaker 1>they're just I'm I'm nervous. I think there's going to

0:09:31.280 --> 0:09:34.520
<v Speaker 1>be a lot of injuries because there's been not really

0:09:34.559 --> 0:09:38.560
<v Speaker 1>a lot of contact because of coronavirus, you know factors.

0:09:38.920 --> 0:09:43.680
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, Nick Foles maybe in there. What you do

0:09:43.679 --> 0:09:45.559
<v Speaker 1>you guys have a third string I would I would

0:09:45.559 --> 0:09:48.680
<v Speaker 1>hope they've invested in that. You're in the third string

0:09:48.720 --> 0:09:51.000
<v Speaker 1>quarterback for the Bears, and I can't I don't know

0:09:51.000 --> 0:09:52.800
<v Speaker 1>who it is at the top of my head, but yeah,

0:09:53.080 --> 0:09:55.520
<v Speaker 1>I I don't know. I would hope that Mitch would

0:09:55.520 --> 0:09:57.040
<v Speaker 1>finish the season, But if he gets hurt and then

0:09:57.040 --> 0:09:58.560
<v Speaker 1>maybe Folds will do the same thing he did with

0:09:58.600 --> 0:10:00.360
<v Speaker 1>the Eagles and we can have the great the season

0:10:00.360 --> 0:10:04.680
<v Speaker 1>ever lives awesome. You have a very good defense, and

0:10:05.000 --> 0:10:07.719
<v Speaker 1>you have a coach who doesn't seem to like the quarterback,

0:10:07.760 --> 0:10:11.920
<v Speaker 1>and so that seems like a recipe for success. Yes,

0:10:12.160 --> 0:10:14.880
<v Speaker 1>it is so bizarre that it's happening this week. I

0:10:14.920 --> 0:10:17.360
<v Speaker 1>cannot believe it, Like I can't put my head around it. Well, yeah,

0:10:17.400 --> 0:10:20.079
<v Speaker 1>we're watching Hard Knocks for the last few weeks and

0:10:20.160 --> 0:10:23.640
<v Speaker 1>the practices are hilarious where it's like everywhere in the

0:10:23.679 --> 0:10:25.719
<v Speaker 1>mask and then it's like the next scene is him

0:10:25.800 --> 0:10:27.640
<v Speaker 1>like the coach yelling at them for not rapping on

0:10:27.640 --> 0:10:30.480
<v Speaker 1>a tackle. You know, It's like I feel like you

0:10:30.559 --> 0:10:32.920
<v Speaker 1>just got to go all in on one way, like

0:10:33.000 --> 0:10:35.000
<v Speaker 1>if they're all in, if you get it, you get it.

0:10:35.040 --> 0:10:36.959
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. I also shouldn't be giving away medical

0:10:37.000 --> 0:10:40.320
<v Speaker 1>advice too. I would just like to say that the

0:10:40.400 --> 0:10:45.760
<v Speaker 1>greatest stance is not heard immunity. Um c J speaks

0:10:45.800 --> 0:10:49.960
<v Speaker 1>for himself. I do not think everyone in the NFL

0:10:50.000 --> 0:10:52.280
<v Speaker 1>should get it or not get it. They should replace

0:10:52.360 --> 0:10:55.440
<v Speaker 1>the front face mask of a helmet with like they

0:10:55.480 --> 0:10:59.320
<v Speaker 1>have made. I think they have made helmet adjustments, and

0:10:59.360 --> 0:11:02.360
<v Speaker 1>I honest, so you can't remember the helmet adjustments are

0:11:02.440 --> 0:11:05.560
<v Speaker 1>because of brain damage or because of pandemic. But I

0:11:05.720 --> 0:11:08.760
<v Speaker 1>know that they've done tweaks because they showed them on

0:11:08.840 --> 0:11:11.199
<v Speaker 1>Hard Knocks, like putting on new ones and guys being

0:11:11.200 --> 0:11:13.120
<v Speaker 1>like not on like that one. Yeah, like that, Like

0:11:13.440 --> 0:11:17.120
<v Speaker 1>they are outfitting them in a new stuff. It's wild.

0:11:17.360 --> 0:11:21.320
<v Speaker 1>The cults are going to have fans there, which the

0:11:21.400 --> 0:11:24.160
<v Speaker 1>number sounds large when you think about it. You know,

0:11:24.200 --> 0:11:28.920
<v Speaker 1>it's a giant stadium that does have open roof. Are

0:11:28.960 --> 0:11:33.319
<v Speaker 1>you okay? Do I seem not okay? Well, yesterday, Tommy,

0:11:33.360 --> 0:11:38.040
<v Speaker 1>we're watching TV and nothing on the television was football,

0:11:38.160 --> 0:11:40.600
<v Speaker 1>and Megan took a big sign she goes a week

0:11:40.640 --> 0:11:47.640
<v Speaker 1>from now, I'll be cheering for Philip Rivers. Like, there's

0:11:47.679 --> 0:11:52.040
<v Speaker 1>just a lot of different um thing challenges in life

0:11:52.040 --> 0:11:55.160
<v Speaker 1>in and one of mine is having to wrap my

0:11:55.200 --> 0:11:59.720
<v Speaker 1>head around feeling positive thoughts towards Philip Rivers. What isn't

0:11:59.720 --> 0:12:01.680
<v Speaker 1>about Philip Rivers? I mean, I know he's always just

0:12:01.679 --> 0:12:05.760
<v Speaker 1>been like a vanilla, but like so he taunted Colts

0:12:05.800 --> 0:12:09.400
<v Speaker 1>fans after a playoff win, like he's a little he's

0:12:09.440 --> 0:12:12.240
<v Speaker 1>one of those little Christian hot dogs where it's not

0:12:12.320 --> 0:12:15.160
<v Speaker 1>like I'd rather have a Christian quiet. Okay, if you're

0:12:15.160 --> 0:12:17.280
<v Speaker 1>gonna be into the God, just shut the funk up.

0:12:17.920 --> 0:12:21.040
<v Speaker 1>You're gonna be into God. But then you're doing little

0:12:21.200 --> 0:12:25.320
<v Speaker 1>finger guns and wearing your bowlow tie and doing the shocker.

0:12:25.920 --> 0:12:29.360
<v Speaker 1>You piss me off, you know, talking to two Midwest

0:12:29.440 --> 0:12:31.840
<v Speaker 1>Catholic boys here, so we're not on your sis. I'm

0:12:31.880 --> 0:12:34.600
<v Speaker 1>a Midwest Catholic girl and I will fuck you up. Okay,

0:12:35.720 --> 0:12:38.680
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna root for him. Listen, he's on the god

0:12:38.720 --> 0:12:42.520
<v Speaker 1>squad and now he's on my squad. So whatever. You know,

0:12:42.600 --> 0:12:44.160
<v Speaker 1>people who are going to go to the games, Megan,

0:12:44.559 --> 0:12:48.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure no one has like told, like, my parents

0:12:48.920 --> 0:12:51.720
<v Speaker 1>gave away their tickets, my mom my, mom goes, she goes.

0:12:51.800 --> 0:12:53.760
<v Speaker 1>I just want to tail Kate, you know, I don't

0:12:53.760 --> 0:12:55.360
<v Speaker 1>really even care about the games. I just want to

0:12:55.400 --> 0:12:57.880
<v Speaker 1>tail she goes. So maybe we're just gonna tailgate in

0:12:57.880 --> 0:13:01.640
<v Speaker 1>our driveway and invite our friends over. They gave their

0:13:01.679 --> 0:13:05.160
<v Speaker 1>not going to one game this season, gave up privileges, Uh,

0:13:05.280 --> 0:13:09.080
<v Speaker 1>would not? I mean I think it's totally reasonable to

0:13:09.120 --> 0:13:12.679
<v Speaker 1>consider it. Yeah, it's such a bad idea, but like

0:13:12.880 --> 0:13:15.079
<v Speaker 1>just the thought of, like not that there's a real situation,

0:13:15.080 --> 0:13:16.480
<v Speaker 1>but you're just saying would you go? It's like, oh,

0:13:16.520 --> 0:13:21.640
<v Speaker 1>I could go. And I see how there's people that

0:13:21.679 --> 0:13:25.920
<v Speaker 1>have like had COVID already and feel like they've got

0:13:25.960 --> 0:13:30.400
<v Speaker 1>this to me the reality of having fans there, It's like, well,

0:13:30.400 --> 0:13:34.800
<v Speaker 1>then you're asking a whole another amount of workers to

0:13:35.080 --> 0:13:37.960
<v Speaker 1>also be there. And so it's like, yeah, if fans

0:13:38.000 --> 0:13:39.880
<v Speaker 1>could just be there and no one would have to

0:13:39.880 --> 0:13:42.640
<v Speaker 1>be at the stadium in in peril, But like you've

0:13:42.640 --> 0:13:46.240
<v Speaker 1>got to have concessions, parking, tickets, security, Like you're just

0:13:46.400 --> 0:13:50.680
<v Speaker 1>adding in people at every every time you want another

0:13:51.280 --> 0:13:54.440
<v Speaker 1>round of whoever is there, whether it's a family of players,

0:13:54.600 --> 0:13:57.040
<v Speaker 1>you know, I totally get that. Then you've got to

0:13:57.080 --> 0:13:58.960
<v Speaker 1>have more. You want to have fans, you gotta have more.

0:13:59.040 --> 0:14:01.800
<v Speaker 1>So twenty five hundred fans. But when you think about

0:14:01.840 --> 0:14:05.959
<v Speaker 1>the staff that maybe five hundred people not being paid

0:14:06.040 --> 0:14:10.440
<v Speaker 1>hazard pay that have to go to the stadiums, and yeah,

0:14:10.520 --> 0:14:12.400
<v Speaker 1>I just I don't know how I would feel. Maybe

0:14:12.440 --> 0:14:15.080
<v Speaker 1>they really want to work, and maybe they were given

0:14:15.080 --> 0:14:19.400
<v Speaker 1>the option, who knows, but that that's how I that's

0:14:19.440 --> 0:14:21.440
<v Speaker 1>how I'd be, Like, I don't want to go, but

0:14:21.640 --> 0:14:24.960
<v Speaker 1>the Rams Chargers new Stadium looks beautiful and I can't

0:14:25.000 --> 0:14:29.320
<v Speaker 1>wait to go when it feels really really safe. Mm hmm. Yeah.

0:14:29.360 --> 0:14:32.200
<v Speaker 1>I went to two NBA games the week before the

0:14:32.200 --> 0:14:37.680
<v Speaker 1>shutdown at Madison Square Garden. One that MSG and one

0:14:37.720 --> 0:14:41.960
<v Speaker 1>at Barclay's UM and it was crazy. Obviously I was

0:14:42.080 --> 0:14:44.560
<v Speaker 1>very naive about you know, I read all the international news,

0:14:44.640 --> 0:14:47.320
<v Speaker 1>but I was, you know, naive about it. So I

0:14:47.400 --> 0:14:50.280
<v Speaker 1>went to Nick's Jazz, which is very funny. I saw

0:14:50.360 --> 0:14:56.120
<v Speaker 1>really go there like yeah, and then went to Bull's Nets.

0:14:56.160 --> 0:14:58.640
<v Speaker 1>I think it was like the Sunday before Wednesday was

0:14:58.680 --> 0:15:03.600
<v Speaker 1>like everything shut down. Those could have been super spreader events,

0:15:03.960 --> 0:15:08.600
<v Speaker 1>like did you panic when you heard the the Rudy

0:15:08.600 --> 0:15:12.880
<v Speaker 1>Gobert news. I was For some reason, I was more

0:15:12.920 --> 0:15:15.680
<v Speaker 1>nervous when I saw that four Nets had testifies it.

0:15:15.800 --> 0:15:18.600
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, it was just so it was also weird,

0:15:18.720 --> 0:15:20.600
<v Speaker 1>and I think at the time, I think for a

0:15:20.600 --> 0:15:22.720
<v Speaker 1>lot of people, I've heard other people think this too.

0:15:22.760 --> 0:15:26.320
<v Speaker 1>It's like it wasn't until that Jazz game than that

0:15:26.360 --> 0:15:28.400
<v Speaker 1>whole Gobert thing happened that I really thought of it

0:15:28.440 --> 0:15:31.560
<v Speaker 1>as a real thing in America. And I just remember

0:15:31.600 --> 0:15:33.440
<v Speaker 1>that moment that I did have that like, oh my god,

0:15:33.520 --> 0:15:36.560
<v Speaker 1>I was, you know, pretty close to Rudy Gobert not

0:15:36.640 --> 0:15:38.280
<v Speaker 1>that long ago, like I was in Good Seats c J.

0:15:38.440 --> 0:15:41.320
<v Speaker 1>You went to these seats at MSc that was there's

0:15:41.360 --> 0:15:43.600
<v Speaker 1>such great seats, so you're really close. I was like,

0:15:43.640 --> 0:15:45.240
<v Speaker 1>I was, you know, I could throw a ball and

0:15:45.280 --> 0:15:47.560
<v Speaker 1>hit Rudy Gobert, which I might should have done with

0:15:47.600 --> 0:15:52.440
<v Speaker 1>how we spread that disease. He sneezed. We may not

0:15:52.520 --> 0:15:55.360
<v Speaker 1>be talking to you right now. I would say, as

0:15:55.400 --> 0:15:57.400
<v Speaker 1>a huge NBA fan, if I was to get COVID

0:15:57.560 --> 0:16:00.760
<v Speaker 1>in anyway, I would pick through Rudy Gobert, Donovan Mitchell.

0:16:01.000 --> 0:16:07.240
<v Speaker 1>You know that's so okay. I'm sorry. Um, all right,

0:16:07.400 --> 0:16:11.120
<v Speaker 1>so people are already unsubscribing because of my theories on

0:16:11.160 --> 0:16:15.280
<v Speaker 1>this disease. I am taking very seriously. But so, how

0:16:15.320 --> 0:16:18.320
<v Speaker 1>have you been enjoying these NBA playoffs in the whole bubble?

0:16:19.040 --> 0:16:23.200
<v Speaker 1>It has like changed, um, how I'm doing psychologically so

0:16:23.280 --> 0:16:25.120
<v Speaker 1>much like just having these games to watch. I've been

0:16:25.120 --> 0:16:27.280
<v Speaker 1>watching so much basketball and just like even just like

0:16:27.280 --> 0:16:29.840
<v Speaker 1>looking at scores, just like I feel like my mood

0:16:29.960 --> 0:16:32.680
<v Speaker 1>and my life has gotten immeasurably better and I'm so

0:16:32.720 --> 0:16:34.960
<v Speaker 1>happy that it's working out so well, you know, you know,

0:16:35.040 --> 0:16:37.880
<v Speaker 1>like when I watch baseball, I feel like more nervous

0:16:37.920 --> 0:16:40.560
<v Speaker 1>and guilty, and when I watch basketball, like they're doing

0:16:40.600 --> 0:16:43.240
<v Speaker 1>a great job. So it's been it's been so great

0:16:43.280 --> 0:16:45.360
<v Speaker 1>and the playoffs have been so good. I've been Something

0:16:45.400 --> 0:16:47.480
<v Speaker 1>I've been thinking about is I think if anyone says

0:16:47.560 --> 0:16:52.720
<v Speaker 1>this is an asterisk title, it's only because your team lost. Yeah,

0:16:53.000 --> 0:16:56.800
<v Speaker 1>because it's harder. Yeah, It's like it seems like it

0:16:56.800 --> 0:16:59.520
<v Speaker 1>should be like an asterisk in the good way. This

0:16:59.600 --> 0:17:01.720
<v Speaker 1>is like a it's like a bold title like this,

0:17:02.600 --> 0:17:05.200
<v Speaker 1>there's no home court advantage and we're watching the best

0:17:05.240 --> 0:17:08.240
<v Speaker 1>team in the league right now. They're currently down three

0:17:08.280 --> 0:17:10.720
<v Speaker 1>one the Bucks. It gives the heat and I think

0:17:10.880 --> 0:17:12.840
<v Speaker 1>some of it is due to the conditions in the

0:17:13.200 --> 0:17:16.360
<v Speaker 1>no home court advantage, and yeah, it's just it's such

0:17:16.400 --> 0:17:19.040
<v Speaker 1>a weird time. It's such a weird time and weird

0:17:19.240 --> 0:17:21.760
<v Speaker 1>like atmosphere, and the games have been so good too,

0:17:21.800 --> 0:17:24.200
<v Speaker 1>And I think they're not traveling is a huge thing

0:17:24.280 --> 0:17:27.520
<v Speaker 1>for these guys. I mean, I must I compare it

0:17:27.520 --> 0:17:31.480
<v Speaker 1>to myself as as a professor comedian, but like the

0:17:31.560 --> 0:17:34.119
<v Speaker 1>day you travel, you're just so tired and miserable, and

0:17:34.119 --> 0:17:36.000
<v Speaker 1>it's like that definitely does affect the way they play.

0:17:36.080 --> 0:17:38.800
<v Speaker 1>Like you can't say it doesn't. Boy that Thursday show

0:17:38.840 --> 0:17:42.040
<v Speaker 1>at a club, I'm like, I hope I make it

0:17:42.200 --> 0:17:45.560
<v Speaker 1>through you know, because they're giving out free tickets to

0:17:45.600 --> 0:17:49.000
<v Speaker 1>see me for sure. So it's people that already are

0:17:49.040 --> 0:17:51.639
<v Speaker 1>like I don't like this. You know, they've been invested in,

0:17:51.840 --> 0:17:54.520
<v Speaker 1>and I'm like, listen, I woke up at five am

0:17:54.680 --> 0:17:58.240
<v Speaker 1>l A time to fly to Wisconsin to try and

0:17:58.359 --> 0:18:02.000
<v Speaker 1>figure out what you people like and listen, by Thursday night,

0:18:02.119 --> 0:18:07.679
<v Speaker 1>I don't have it. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, they look really

0:18:07.840 --> 0:18:11.280
<v Speaker 1>sharp and fresh and shooting started bad in those seating games,

0:18:11.320 --> 0:18:13.880
<v Speaker 1>but now it's gotten really good. Yeah, so many great games.

0:18:13.920 --> 0:18:16.000
<v Speaker 1>I've loved it. I almost I'm like, man, we should

0:18:16.040 --> 0:18:18.560
<v Speaker 1>do the bubble every playoffs. I don't know, I just

0:18:18.680 --> 0:18:20.880
<v Speaker 1>I do really like the even playing ground. I think

0:18:21.560 --> 0:18:24.200
<v Speaker 1>it changes the game. And yeah, like you said, every

0:18:24.240 --> 0:18:27.800
<v Speaker 1>game is close, like and just psychologically like we didn't

0:18:27.800 --> 0:18:30.320
<v Speaker 1>have sports for what four months and for it to

0:18:30.359 --> 0:18:33.720
<v Speaker 1>come back, and there are games that we're starting at

0:18:33.840 --> 0:18:36.640
<v Speaker 1>like ten thirty AMR time, like on the West Coast,

0:18:36.720 --> 0:18:41.119
<v Speaker 1>but just like having it all day is just and

0:18:41.119 --> 0:18:43.520
<v Speaker 1>we're inside and like we can watch them like I

0:18:43.560 --> 0:18:45.439
<v Speaker 1>was watching I can't remember when they were before the

0:18:45.480 --> 0:18:47.840
<v Speaker 1>regular season. I was watching some of the worst which

0:18:47.840 --> 0:18:50.520
<v Speaker 1>would have been the worst games that uh that we're playing,

0:18:50.560 --> 0:18:52.800
<v Speaker 1>but I was just watching all of it mm hmm,

0:18:53.040 --> 0:18:56.760
<v Speaker 1>just because I think the last dance to like bridge

0:18:56.880 --> 0:18:59.199
<v Speaker 1>that really important gap leading up to it too, it

0:18:59.359 --> 0:19:02.320
<v Speaker 1>was yeah, and like that would that like scratch that

0:19:02.359 --> 0:19:05.080
<v Speaker 1>itch for me? But once that ended, like that time

0:19:05.080 --> 0:19:07.960
<v Speaker 1>in between that and basketball was really brutal, and I'm

0:19:07.960 --> 0:19:10.080
<v Speaker 1>still up so much happier now. Who do you got?

0:19:10.600 --> 0:19:14.560
<v Speaker 1>What are your predictions for the playoffs? I think it

0:19:14.720 --> 0:19:18.760
<v Speaker 1>is going to be I don't know. I've been standing

0:19:18.800 --> 0:19:22.600
<v Speaker 1>for the Lakers. I uh, I don't know why, but

0:19:22.640 --> 0:19:25.760
<v Speaker 1>I've always been a Lebron guy, even though you know,

0:19:25.800 --> 0:19:28.399
<v Speaker 1>I'm a Bulls fan, and he was going up against

0:19:28.440 --> 0:19:30.480
<v Speaker 1>them with the heat teams and everything. But I've just

0:19:30.520 --> 0:19:32.359
<v Speaker 1>always like Lebron, and I feel like this could be

0:19:32.359 --> 0:19:34.080
<v Speaker 1>his last one, so I've been all in on them,

0:19:34.520 --> 0:19:38.280
<v Speaker 1>even though the Clippers are probably way better. I don't know. Yeah,

0:19:38.440 --> 0:19:41.000
<v Speaker 1>I think the Clippers are better. They are, I mean

0:19:41.000 --> 0:19:45.159
<v Speaker 1>they are, but like Lebron is just different, like playoff Lebron.

0:19:45.240 --> 0:19:47.680
<v Speaker 1>I think he will step it up in ways. I think, Yeah,

0:19:47.760 --> 0:19:49.639
<v Speaker 1>we haven't seen the best of like a d or

0:19:49.760 --> 0:19:52.680
<v Speaker 1>Lebron yet, and they have one. They've won the last

0:19:52.680 --> 0:19:55.320
<v Speaker 1>two against them. Did they matter? I don't know, but

0:19:57.320 --> 0:20:01.359
<v Speaker 1>mhm um, all right, should we get into the topic. Okay,

0:20:01.440 --> 0:20:02.960
<v Speaker 1>let's take a break and then we'll be right back

0:20:03.000 --> 0:20:10.960
<v Speaker 1>with the topic. Okay, and we are back and this

0:20:11.000 --> 0:20:15.040
<v Speaker 1>week's topic. Coming off the heels of last week's greatest

0:20:15.119 --> 0:20:20.000
<v Speaker 1>crop shot, we decided to do greatest. We're going to

0:20:20.080 --> 0:20:28.000
<v Speaker 1>do that NBA layoff moment. Okay, was there was there

0:20:28.080 --> 0:20:30.960
<v Speaker 1>some confusion between c J and I as to whether

0:20:31.000 --> 0:20:34.760
<v Speaker 1>we are doing greatest playoff moment or greatest is playoff performance? Yes,

0:20:34.800 --> 0:20:38.000
<v Speaker 1>there was, but we are well no, because moment for me,

0:20:38.080 --> 0:20:40.760
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, that could be when I got really good,

0:20:40.840 --> 0:20:45.520
<v Speaker 1>not chose at Come shut up, j I love you.

0:20:45.520 --> 0:20:51.679
<v Speaker 1>You're sweaty? Are you sweaty? But just your arm? Interesting? Okay, So,

0:20:51.840 --> 0:20:57.920
<v Speaker 1>greatest playoff moment, Tommy, you are illustrious. Guests, please lead

0:20:58.000 --> 0:21:02.280
<v Speaker 1>us off with your number three. Pick the three? Okay, Well,

0:21:02.680 --> 0:21:11.399
<v Speaker 1>here's what I think, okay, Ione, just so you do

0:21:11.440 --> 0:21:15.600
<v Speaker 1>your your least best, my least best first okay, okay. Interesting,

0:21:15.840 --> 0:21:23.040
<v Speaker 1>So here's what I'm thinking is stalling. So I am

0:21:23.119 --> 0:21:28.320
<v Speaker 1>going to say Jordan sixty against the Celtics, just announcing

0:21:28.400 --> 0:21:31.560
<v Speaker 1>himself as I'm the best player in the league right now,

0:21:32.000 --> 0:21:35.359
<v Speaker 1>I'm playing against this amazing team, this legendary team, and

0:21:35.560 --> 0:21:37.160
<v Speaker 1>no one can stop me, no matter what they throw

0:21:37.200 --> 0:21:39.919
<v Speaker 1>at me. I think reliving that in the last Dance

0:21:40.200 --> 0:21:44.040
<v Speaker 1>is just uh, just realizing how cool that would be

0:21:44.080 --> 0:21:46.000
<v Speaker 1>to see someone do that. You know, I don't think

0:21:46.040 --> 0:21:48.440
<v Speaker 1>I was alive at the time, but it's just it's

0:21:48.480 --> 0:21:50.639
<v Speaker 1>just truly amazing, you know, and having you know, fifty

0:21:50.680 --> 0:21:52.480
<v Speaker 1>whatever in the game before that and then just coming

0:21:52.480 --> 0:21:55.880
<v Speaker 1>out three. It's it's truly incredible. People don't really talk

0:21:55.920 --> 0:21:58.560
<v Speaker 1>about that, but yeah, that's like the it's the game

0:21:58.600 --> 0:22:01.120
<v Speaker 1>where whenever they show the high it's Jordans with hair.

0:22:01.560 --> 0:22:04.760
<v Speaker 1>He's very skinny, short shorts playing against the Celtics. Who ever,

0:22:04.880 --> 0:22:07.120
<v Speaker 1>I think all of the Celtics starters are now Hall

0:22:07.160 --> 0:22:11.000
<v Speaker 1>of famers, um and just a young Michael Jordan's. I

0:22:11.000 --> 0:22:12.880
<v Speaker 1>think they were the eighth seed going against some one

0:22:12.920 --> 0:22:15.840
<v Speaker 1>seed and yeah, like you said, no one ever mentions

0:22:15.880 --> 0:22:18.680
<v Speaker 1>Game one where I think he had fifty two or

0:22:18.720 --> 0:22:21.800
<v Speaker 1>something like that, but they lost. Did they lose? I forget?

0:22:21.800 --> 0:22:24.640
<v Speaker 1>I think he had and they lost. But then yeah,

0:22:24.680 --> 0:22:29.400
<v Speaker 1>he does that like scissor like between the legs and

0:22:29.440 --> 0:22:31.880
<v Speaker 1>then shoots it over. I can't I remember, but it's

0:22:31.920 --> 0:22:34.760
<v Speaker 1>just like we're seeing a little bit of that now

0:22:34.960 --> 0:22:38.560
<v Speaker 1>with um with like Donovan, I guess, well, Donovan is

0:22:38.560 --> 0:22:40.600
<v Speaker 1>not a rookie. There is someone now. I'm like, oh,

0:22:40.640 --> 0:22:43.320
<v Speaker 1>this is like Jordan's sixty point game in the playoffs.

0:22:43.560 --> 0:22:47.679
<v Speaker 1>I forget who, but it's three. It was like it

0:22:47.720 --> 0:22:50.159
<v Speaker 1>felt like that, like the coming out party. You know,

0:22:50.440 --> 0:22:53.320
<v Speaker 1>you know I'm gonna shoot and I'm still gonna make it. Yeah,

0:22:53.359 --> 0:22:56.080
<v Speaker 1>because this really, I mean in the last dance, I'm

0:22:56.400 --> 0:23:00.560
<v Speaker 1>just I've avoid it all Jordan thinks until the last dance.

0:23:00.640 --> 0:23:03.720
<v Speaker 1>So any opinion I have is based on what Michael

0:23:03.760 --> 0:23:05.719
<v Speaker 1>Jordan's wants me to think, which, you know what, I'm

0:23:05.800 --> 0:23:08.639
<v Speaker 1>kind of fine with. But this definitely this was like

0:23:08.800 --> 0:23:14.240
<v Speaker 1>the Rise and they have like funny footage of Celtics

0:23:14.240 --> 0:23:16.760
<v Speaker 1>players like looking at each other like what the who

0:23:16.920 --> 0:23:20.080
<v Speaker 1>is this? What's happening right now? And then them just

0:23:20.160 --> 0:23:23.560
<v Speaker 1>being astounded, And it really was like, Oh, if you

0:23:23.680 --> 0:23:27.159
<v Speaker 1>haven't been paying attention to this guy now, you're definitely

0:23:27.200 --> 0:23:30.520
<v Speaker 1>going to Yeah, great first pick. So I did pick

0:23:30.560 --> 0:23:33.240
<v Speaker 1>a performance, but my next to our moments, So that's

0:23:34.359 --> 0:23:38.240
<v Speaker 1>performance as well. It's a moment. Okay, c did you

0:23:38.280 --> 0:23:39.560
<v Speaker 1>want to go next to you? Do want me to

0:23:39.600 --> 0:23:42.320
<v Speaker 1>go next? Um, I'll go next, just really quickly. Again,

0:23:42.359 --> 0:23:44.040
<v Speaker 1>it's a performance, but it is I think it is

0:23:44.080 --> 0:23:47.600
<v Speaker 1>a moment in that it is a chapter or you know,

0:23:47.840 --> 0:23:51.920
<v Speaker 1>a thing that happened in this guy's career that was

0:23:52.000 --> 0:23:55.680
<v Speaker 1>kind of his coming out. But it is the it's

0:23:55.760 --> 0:24:00.680
<v Speaker 1>Lebron's twenty nine straight against the Pistons in the playoffs. Tommy,

0:24:00.720 --> 0:24:02.399
<v Speaker 1>you're shaking head? Did I steal this one from you?

0:24:02.880 --> 0:24:05.119
<v Speaker 1>That was when I was thinking of doing And but

0:24:05.359 --> 0:24:10.200
<v Speaker 1>I love it. I'm happy you picked because remember well

0:24:10.200 --> 0:24:12.679
<v Speaker 1>it's twenty yeah, twenty nine and the last thirty against

0:24:12.680 --> 0:24:15.119
<v Speaker 1>the Pistons, and I believe was it game five or

0:24:15.119 --> 0:24:18.160
<v Speaker 1>Game six? But this is the game. So this series

0:24:18.359 --> 0:24:22.840
<v Speaker 1>was Calves Pistons, and the Pistons are defending champions and

0:24:22.840 --> 0:24:24.760
<v Speaker 1>people are like, oh, it's just a Pistons time. Now

0:24:24.800 --> 0:24:27.639
<v Speaker 1>they're gonna just like win everyone. Lebron is good, but

0:24:27.680 --> 0:24:29.960
<v Speaker 1>like he doesn't have enough help. He like this is

0:24:30.000 --> 0:24:31.879
<v Speaker 1>like the first Lebron just like taking it in his

0:24:31.920 --> 0:24:34.680
<v Speaker 1>own hands. Um. Young, I think he's like three or

0:24:34.720 --> 0:24:37.000
<v Speaker 1>four years into the league at this point, brings it

0:24:37.040 --> 0:24:40.600
<v Speaker 1>into overtime scores twenty nine of the last thirty, and

0:24:40.840 --> 0:24:43.840
<v Speaker 1>the Calves end up going to the finals against the

0:24:43.840 --> 0:24:47.679
<v Speaker 1>Spurs where they get swept um. But it is truly like,

0:24:48.000 --> 0:24:51.159
<v Speaker 1>I'm that was the moment where I was like, I, I,

0:24:51.160 --> 0:24:53.240
<v Speaker 1>I know, I'm like a die hard Bowls fan, and

0:24:53.280 --> 0:24:56.240
<v Speaker 1>I haven't really found anyone I'm like consistently rooting for,

0:24:57.000 --> 0:24:59.920
<v Speaker 1>but I'm just like, I this was awesome to watch,

0:25:00.680 --> 0:25:02.919
<v Speaker 1>and I really want to root for this guy, and

0:25:03.040 --> 0:25:06.640
<v Speaker 1>because it's just genuine was so fun and incredible to watch.

0:25:07.480 --> 0:25:10.480
<v Speaker 1>I remember watching this game so vividly. I remember watching

0:25:10.480 --> 0:25:12.880
<v Speaker 1>it with my dad and we were both just freaking out,

0:25:13.000 --> 0:25:15.080
<v Speaker 1>and I remember like jumping up and down when he

0:25:15.080 --> 0:25:18.200
<v Speaker 1>because he just kept scoring and it was truly amazing

0:25:18.240 --> 0:25:19.960
<v Speaker 1>to watch it. I grew up, so I was born

0:25:20.000 --> 0:25:23.080
<v Speaker 1>in nine d so obviously the Bulls won six championships,

0:25:23.119 --> 0:25:24.440
<v Speaker 1>but they won the last one when I was eight

0:25:24.480 --> 0:25:27.840
<v Speaker 1>years old, so you know, I my brain wasn't really

0:25:27.880 --> 0:25:29.880
<v Speaker 1>developed enough to like understand and it was just kind

0:25:29.880 --> 0:25:31.440
<v Speaker 1>of like what was happening? And I was like, oh, yeah,

0:25:31.480 --> 0:25:33.160
<v Speaker 1>we're the Bulls, we have the best player. He does

0:25:33.160 --> 0:25:35.359
<v Speaker 1>what everyone. You know, we went every time, but Lebron

0:25:35.480 --> 0:25:38.040
<v Speaker 1>felt like the first player where I was watching someone

0:25:38.160 --> 0:25:40.560
<v Speaker 1>have that, you know, in real time as like an

0:25:40.560 --> 0:25:42.680
<v Speaker 1>adult into someone who really loved sports in that way,

0:25:42.720 --> 0:25:46.760
<v Speaker 1>not just as a little baby boy. So and he

0:25:46.880 --> 0:25:49.720
<v Speaker 1>wasn't like you were programmed. You were kind of like

0:25:49.800 --> 0:25:51.480
<v Speaker 1>the bulls as a kid. You know, you really didn't

0:25:51.520 --> 0:25:54.199
<v Speaker 1>have an option. It's like Lebron almost like wood you.

0:25:54.440 --> 0:25:57.359
<v Speaker 1>He charmed you over to his side because he wasn't

0:25:57.880 --> 0:26:00.520
<v Speaker 1>on a team that you rooted for, say a team

0:26:00.520 --> 0:26:04.600
<v Speaker 1>you probably very much rooted against. And yeah, he like

0:26:04.800 --> 0:26:08.440
<v Speaker 1>he wooed us all. He he actually is the bachelor.

0:26:08.920 --> 0:26:13.080
<v Speaker 1>You know, we all accepted the rose from Lebron. I did,

0:26:13.520 --> 0:26:16.760
<v Speaker 1>okay my number three pick. It will come as no

0:26:16.880 --> 0:26:21.800
<v Speaker 1>surprise that it is the eight points in nine seconds

0:26:23.000 --> 0:26:25.800
<v Speaker 1>if I get a chance to bring it up on

0:26:25.840 --> 0:26:29.199
<v Speaker 1>the podcast of going to I absolutely love it. I

0:26:29.240 --> 0:26:32.960
<v Speaker 1>mean yeah, they have like twenty year anniversary articles about it.

0:26:32.960 --> 0:26:38.399
<v Speaker 1>It's incredible and yeah, it lifted the Pacers over the Knicks.

0:26:38.480 --> 0:26:41.520
<v Speaker 1>I'll give the breakdown. If you've ever listened to this podcast,

0:26:41.560 --> 0:26:43.320
<v Speaker 1>you've heard it before. You could just go back to

0:26:43.359 --> 0:26:46.640
<v Speaker 1>previous episodes, but the Pacers were down one oh five

0:26:47.680 --> 0:26:51.639
<v Speaker 1>twenty seconds left. Reggie scored two quick threes, then was

0:26:51.720 --> 0:26:54.440
<v Speaker 1>fouled hit both foul shots got to the eight points

0:26:54.520 --> 0:26:57.040
<v Speaker 1>in nine seconds. The Pacers went on to beat the

0:26:57.080 --> 0:27:00.320
<v Speaker 1>Knicks and win the series. So it wasn't us like

0:27:00.320 --> 0:27:02.640
<v Speaker 1>a snapshot of like wow, that was wild and then

0:27:02.720 --> 0:27:06.520
<v Speaker 1>like turned and you know that was the Pacers and

0:27:06.680 --> 0:27:11.800
<v Speaker 1>nixt They were classic enemies of the nineties and it

0:27:11.800 --> 0:27:15.080
<v Speaker 1>it was a momentum swift, swift, you can do it?

0:27:16.440 --> 0:27:20.200
<v Speaker 1>Do it? What's swift? Okay, I meant to say shift,

0:27:20.560 --> 0:27:23.960
<v Speaker 1>but it was a swift shift, swift shift, you know

0:27:24.000 --> 0:27:29.480
<v Speaker 1>what I mean. And so yeah, I remember it and

0:27:30.600 --> 0:27:34.879
<v Speaker 1>him and Spike and they're just they're they're iconic. He

0:27:35.040 --> 0:27:38.560
<v Speaker 1>is iconic. Together, it was one of the it's like

0:27:38.600 --> 0:27:42.640
<v Speaker 1>one of the greatest nineties NBA moments in general. Yeah,

0:27:42.680 --> 0:27:45.920
<v Speaker 1>I love winning time is so good that thirty thirty

0:27:45.960 --> 0:27:49.000
<v Speaker 1>and I just like love. I definitely went down to

0:27:49.040 --> 0:27:51.199
<v Speaker 1>YouTube rabbital after watching that and just like I think,

0:27:51.200 --> 0:27:52.879
<v Speaker 1>I feel like I watched that like five times in

0:27:52.880 --> 0:27:55.200
<v Speaker 1>a row, just because it's so wild. We've talked about

0:27:55.240 --> 0:27:57.240
<v Speaker 1>it so many times in this podcast. But it's like

0:27:57.880 --> 0:28:01.120
<v Speaker 1>a top ten comedy movie to me. You know, it's

0:28:01.160 --> 0:28:05.320
<v Speaker 1>just like so funny. The personalities and like John Starks

0:28:05.400 --> 0:28:07.800
<v Speaker 1>and I can't remember whose mom was yelling at who.

0:28:07.880 --> 0:28:11.440
<v Speaker 1>But it's just so many characters and we can't recommend

0:28:11.480 --> 0:28:17.400
<v Speaker 1>that documentary enough. All right, going to the next pick. Now,

0:28:17.440 --> 0:28:19.760
<v Speaker 1>I'm not stolling anymore. I know exactly what I'm gonna do,

0:28:20.040 --> 0:28:22.040
<v Speaker 1>and I think I'm gonna be stealing this one from

0:28:22.040 --> 0:28:24.760
<v Speaker 1>c J. I have a theory. I don't know, but

0:28:24.840 --> 0:28:26.919
<v Speaker 1>we'll see it is the ray al and shot for

0:28:26.960 --> 0:28:31.600
<v Speaker 1>the Heat. That Yeah, that was one of the best

0:28:31.640 --> 0:28:34.600
<v Speaker 1>basketball players I've ever seen live, the Chris Bosh rebound.

0:28:34.600 --> 0:28:36.959
<v Speaker 1>I've always been a huge Bosh fan. He finds him

0:28:36.960 --> 0:28:38.560
<v Speaker 1>in the corner and just the way he got his

0:28:38.600 --> 0:28:40.680
<v Speaker 1>feet behind the line in the corner to hit that three.

0:28:40.760 --> 0:28:42.640
<v Speaker 1>That literally they would have lost the finals. The Heat

0:28:42.640 --> 0:28:45.480
<v Speaker 1>would have only won one finals probably, and you know

0:28:45.520 --> 0:28:47.200
<v Speaker 1>they had to win game seven after that, but those

0:28:47.200 --> 0:28:49.280
<v Speaker 1>games six, but I just remember that being like the

0:28:49.320 --> 0:28:52.959
<v Speaker 1>purest amazing shot of everything in real time. It is,

0:28:53.080 --> 0:28:56.840
<v Speaker 1>um it's awesome because I can't remember exactly the scores

0:28:56.880 --> 0:28:59.440
<v Speaker 1>how it broke down, but um, I was watching rayl

0:28:59.480 --> 0:29:02.400
<v Speaker 1>and talk about it again recently. But for a second,

0:29:02.520 --> 0:29:05.800
<v Speaker 1>you think that the Spurs are gonna win and they

0:29:05.840 --> 0:29:08.760
<v Speaker 1>start to put up the ropes, which they said they're

0:29:08.760 --> 0:29:11.040
<v Speaker 1>putting up the ropes, and rail and hits the shot

0:29:11.080 --> 0:29:13.880
<v Speaker 1>and he starts yelling at the staff in the arena

0:29:14.200 --> 0:29:17.280
<v Speaker 1>to put down the ropes, like, why are you calling

0:29:17.360 --> 0:29:20.640
<v Speaker 1>us out early? But we make minimum waights just we

0:29:20.640 --> 0:29:23.240
<v Speaker 1>were told to do it, like they're getting on lockie talkies,

0:29:23.280 --> 0:29:25.560
<v Speaker 1>like Ray Allen is telling us to take them down.

0:29:25.720 --> 0:29:28.880
<v Speaker 1>But I mean it's like it's the whole I love

0:29:28.920 --> 0:29:33.200
<v Speaker 1>when they print shirts early. There's shirts made for both teams,

0:29:33.560 --> 0:29:36.640
<v Speaker 1>championship shirts, so apparently, yeah, the ropes were being put

0:29:36.720 --> 0:29:40.560
<v Speaker 1>up and the plastic was being covering the Spurs locker

0:29:40.640 --> 0:29:44.400
<v Speaker 1>room too because of champagne, and then they had to

0:29:44.400 --> 0:29:49.320
<v Speaker 1>take all of that down, which is sad, like having

0:29:49.360 --> 0:29:54.880
<v Speaker 1>to take down NBA Final Like championship decorations are like

0:29:54.920 --> 0:29:59.840
<v Speaker 1>having to take down a failed proposal decorations. You know,

0:30:00.080 --> 0:30:03.400
<v Speaker 1>just like when you see someone like sweeping rose petals

0:30:03.520 --> 0:30:07.080
<v Speaker 1>off of a bed, You're like, oh, that's a tough one.

0:30:07.520 --> 0:30:10.280
<v Speaker 1>That's a tough break. Yeah. I also I want to

0:30:10.320 --> 0:30:13.160
<v Speaker 1>collect those the shirts that were made for the team

0:30:13.160 --> 0:30:17.880
<v Speaker 1>that didn't win. C J. Sullivan has a hilarious remember Um, Tommy,

0:30:17.920 --> 0:30:20.560
<v Speaker 1>I didn't know you were such a bosh head. Oh.

0:30:20.640 --> 0:30:23.040
<v Speaker 1>I've always been a huge Chrish Bosh fan. I don't

0:30:23.040 --> 0:30:26.200
<v Speaker 1>know why um Parkson wreck. Maybe I feel like it

0:30:26.280 --> 0:30:28.760
<v Speaker 1>was like it was like half a bit, but I

0:30:28.840 --> 0:30:30.680
<v Speaker 1>just became kind of obsessed with him, Like I I

0:30:30.720 --> 0:30:32.800
<v Speaker 1>got a temporary tattoo that said Bosh on my arm

0:30:32.800 --> 0:30:34.640
<v Speaker 1>one year or that around for like a week or two.

0:30:34.880 --> 0:30:36.960
<v Speaker 1>I was just the biggest Chris Bosh man and I

0:30:37.480 --> 0:30:41.000
<v Speaker 1>love him. My favorite well, there's a Chris Boss. There's

0:30:41.040 --> 0:30:42.760
<v Speaker 1>a picture of him just playing a guitar on a

0:30:42.800 --> 0:30:45.000
<v Speaker 1>boat and like he posted it to look like really

0:30:45.040 --> 0:30:48.680
<v Speaker 1>cool and interesting, and I love that. My favorite recent

0:30:48.800 --> 0:30:51.040
<v Speaker 1>Chris Bosh thing is he put out like a series

0:30:51.080 --> 0:30:54.200
<v Speaker 1>a newsletter about that Heat Championship that I'm talking about

0:30:54.600 --> 0:30:58.040
<v Speaker 1>and he calls it the last Chip and they won too.

0:31:00.080 --> 0:31:03.480
<v Speaker 1>You can't call it the last like you guys only

0:31:03.520 --> 0:31:07.160
<v Speaker 1>one to listen. It was his last Okay, technically it

0:31:07.200 --> 0:31:10.440
<v Speaker 1>works for him. But yeah, Bosh is hilarious. I mean

0:31:10.440 --> 0:31:12.240
<v Speaker 1>he yeah, he was on like Parks and Wreck, and

0:31:12.360 --> 0:31:15.320
<v Speaker 1>I remember for a moment. I don't know how you felt,

0:31:15.360 --> 0:31:18.440
<v Speaker 1>but there was a a day or so where everyone

0:31:18.520 --> 0:31:21.120
<v Speaker 1>thought that Wade, Lebron, and Bosch were all coming to

0:31:21.200 --> 0:31:27.000
<v Speaker 1>the Bulls. Oh yeah, for sure that If you, If

0:31:27.040 --> 0:31:28.560
<v Speaker 1>you which a lot of people often do, if you

0:31:28.560 --> 0:31:30.880
<v Speaker 1>look through my old Facebook profile pictures, one of them

0:31:31.000 --> 0:31:34.920
<v Speaker 1>is Lebron and a Bulls jersey up of Lebron number six,

0:31:34.920 --> 0:31:38.320
<v Speaker 1>and you made that that you made that your profile picture. Yes,

0:31:38.480 --> 0:31:44.240
<v Speaker 1>it was Chris what is the guy's name? Um, the

0:31:44.440 --> 0:31:48.360
<v Speaker 1>NBA reporter who then we saw Chris Broussard. Yes, he

0:31:48.480 --> 0:31:51.640
<v Speaker 1>was like, I have inside reports Lebron is coming to

0:31:51.680 --> 0:31:54.840
<v Speaker 1>the Bulls. And then it was like fully wrong. Yeah,

0:31:54.880 --> 0:31:58.240
<v Speaker 1>when that happened, I was like, because you know, like everything,

0:31:58.320 --> 0:32:00.200
<v Speaker 1>when you hear something you want to happen, you're like,

0:32:00.320 --> 0:32:03.160
<v Speaker 1>that's the truth, that's those are the facts. That's why

0:32:03.200 --> 0:32:05.600
<v Speaker 1>I was worried about you with Lebron and the Lakers.

0:32:05.600 --> 0:32:07.719
<v Speaker 1>Like you were like, I know, I'm tracking the plane

0:32:07.800 --> 0:32:10.400
<v Speaker 1>and I was like, oh boy, well so this is

0:32:10.400 --> 0:32:14.000
<v Speaker 1>another tracking the plane moment. But when this was happening again,

0:32:14.040 --> 0:32:16.120
<v Speaker 1>I was working at Blockbuster. You know, we're living in

0:32:16.120 --> 0:32:19.520
<v Speaker 1>our Chicago comedian lives, and I had the most money

0:32:19.640 --> 0:32:21.480
<v Speaker 1>at the time. I ever had six hundred bucks in

0:32:21.520 --> 0:32:25.160
<v Speaker 1>my and I was like, and we lived by Wrigley

0:32:25.200 --> 0:32:27.320
<v Speaker 1>and I always love people selling T shirts out there,

0:32:27.440 --> 0:32:29.400
<v Speaker 1>and I was like, I'm gonna go and I'm gonna

0:32:29.480 --> 0:32:32.640
<v Speaker 1>make this. I had this design I made on on like, uh,

0:32:32.680 --> 0:32:35.200
<v Speaker 1>what was it called paint Microsoft paint and it said

0:32:35.680 --> 0:32:38.360
<v Speaker 1>it said LaBrash in Bulls font and then I had

0:32:38.400 --> 0:32:40.720
<v Speaker 1>the horns coming out on each side, the bulls horns,

0:32:41.160 --> 0:32:44.640
<v Speaker 1>and I was hitting up my my mom's like friend

0:32:45.080 --> 0:32:47.760
<v Speaker 1>who had a T shirt printing business in Chicago. I

0:32:47.760 --> 0:32:50.080
<v Speaker 1>was like, I need six hundred dollars worth of shirts

0:32:50.080 --> 0:32:51.800
<v Speaker 1>that have us on there, and I'm gonna go and

0:32:51.880 --> 0:32:54.400
<v Speaker 1>sell it outside of Wrigley Field. And I was like

0:32:54.880 --> 0:32:57.480
<v Speaker 1>one step away from doing that, But you didn't. You

0:32:57.520 --> 0:33:00.520
<v Speaker 1>weren't factoring in Dwyane Wade into that, because I just was.

0:33:00.640 --> 0:33:06.000
<v Speaker 1>I think I was into your graphic. The guy from

0:33:06.120 --> 0:33:08.640
<v Speaker 1>Chicago who would like the most sense for people to

0:33:08.640 --> 0:33:12.240
<v Speaker 1>be excited about it was gonna say Lebrash and Wade

0:33:12.400 --> 0:33:16.520
<v Speaker 1>and then just like Dwayne Wade, waving also just LaBrash

0:33:16.720 --> 0:33:21.280
<v Speaker 1>is such a bad Come on, wait, Tommy, didn't you

0:33:21.320 --> 0:33:25.200
<v Speaker 1>have like a very you have like a tattoo sleeve?

0:33:26.000 --> 0:33:29.880
<v Speaker 1>Mm hmm, weren't you. Weren't you wearing something during the

0:33:29.920 --> 0:33:34.440
<v Speaker 1>Cubs playoff run run, I had a fake Cubs tattoo

0:33:34.480 --> 0:33:36.360
<v Speaker 1>sleeve that my mom had sent me that I wore

0:33:36.440 --> 0:33:38.360
<v Speaker 1>for every game and I would put up a hashtag

0:33:38.400 --> 0:33:42.560
<v Speaker 1>believe in the sleeve and uh it worked, So it wasn't.

0:33:42.680 --> 0:33:45.640
<v Speaker 1>So it wasn't like a replica in the way that

0:33:46.080 --> 0:33:48.760
<v Speaker 1>j R. You know, there's like a JR tattoo shirt

0:33:48.800 --> 0:33:51.520
<v Speaker 1>you can buy. This was just what like a man

0:33:51.680 --> 0:33:55.480
<v Speaker 1>who lived in Elmhurst would have tattooed on his arm, right,

0:33:55.560 --> 0:33:58.480
<v Speaker 1>this is what if I was an idiot. Okay, great, great, great,

0:33:58.880 --> 0:34:02.760
<v Speaker 1>try both tattoos sleep. So my parents had a contractor

0:34:02.800 --> 0:34:05.560
<v Speaker 1>and when they lived in Evanston, who had he had

0:34:05.600 --> 0:34:09.760
<v Speaker 1>like fat calves too, and he had somehow like merge

0:34:10.040 --> 0:34:14.440
<v Speaker 1>the Cubs and no it was a bear's logo. But

0:34:14.480 --> 0:34:17.720
<v Speaker 1>then he had a little cubby bear hugging the bear's logo.

0:34:18.440 --> 0:34:22.480
<v Speaker 1>Oh wow, I remember. And he had a wedding ring

0:34:22.560 --> 0:34:24.560
<v Speaker 1>and I was like, I want to meet her, you

0:34:24.600 --> 0:34:28.680
<v Speaker 1>know who's missus? I came so close to getting a

0:34:28.719 --> 0:34:30.759
<v Speaker 1>cub stadto in twenty sixteen, like a few of my

0:34:30.800 --> 0:34:33.279
<v Speaker 1>friends did. They got the w flag, and I said

0:34:33.280 --> 0:34:34.920
<v Speaker 1>that if they I was like, if they went next year,

0:34:34.960 --> 0:34:37.279
<v Speaker 1>I'll do it. I'm kind of happy. I didn't you

0:34:37.360 --> 0:34:41.040
<v Speaker 1>know that there's funeral home sprinkled around the Midwest that

0:34:41.080 --> 0:34:45.799
<v Speaker 1>they're like, we got another Cubs flag coming in. All right,

0:34:45.880 --> 0:34:50.040
<v Speaker 1>give him the works? Okay, um, did you give your Oh,

0:34:50.080 --> 0:34:53.200
<v Speaker 1>we're just having too much fun. More Chicago stuff. We'll

0:34:53.200 --> 0:34:55.080
<v Speaker 1>get through mine quickly. I feel like I'm always like

0:34:55.120 --> 0:34:57.520
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to get my top two picks are

0:34:57.560 --> 0:35:00.279
<v Speaker 1>not Chicago. Actually, none of my picks are Chicago because

0:35:00.280 --> 0:35:04.799
<v Speaker 1>I knew you fucking deep Dish choppers. We're gonna take choppers.

0:35:05.640 --> 0:35:08.480
<v Speaker 1>I can't call us that. I feel like if me

0:35:08.560 --> 0:35:11.319
<v Speaker 1>and taught me a bowling league or bowling team, we

0:35:11.320 --> 0:35:14.480
<v Speaker 1>would be called the Deep Dish chompers. I did I

0:35:15.040 --> 0:35:18.160
<v Speaker 1>do a quick tangent. Here's something that annoys me is

0:35:18.160 --> 0:35:21.040
<v Speaker 1>when people go, well, people actually from Chicago don't eat

0:35:21.080 --> 0:35:23.520
<v Speaker 1>deep Dish. Every single time I go back to Chicago,

0:35:23.600 --> 0:35:29.440
<v Speaker 1>I eat me too. When the pandemic happened, I'm like,

0:35:29.480 --> 0:35:32.239
<v Speaker 1>I think I need to order forty deep frozen deep dish.

0:35:33.520 --> 0:35:36.279
<v Speaker 1>They don't need it every day, but it's definitely a

0:35:36.360 --> 0:35:40.239
<v Speaker 1>point of pride. You're eating, like for birthdays, christenings, you're

0:35:40.239 --> 0:35:43.600
<v Speaker 1>getting the deep dish? Is it not a weather? Is

0:35:43.640 --> 0:35:47.960
<v Speaker 1>your favorite over other pizzas or Iluma Mattie's Pepperoni pizza

0:35:48.160 --> 0:35:49.880
<v Speaker 1>is like my favorite thing in the world deep and

0:35:49.920 --> 0:35:52.439
<v Speaker 1>that's yeah deep dish. Yeah, I love it so much

0:35:53.360 --> 0:35:55.839
<v Speaker 1>and it will it will kill me. I will send

0:35:55.840 --> 0:35:58.120
<v Speaker 1>me to an early grave. But I eat it very often.

0:35:58.200 --> 0:36:01.520
<v Speaker 1>Who did you order it from? Giordanos? I think it's jeered,

0:36:02.280 --> 0:36:07.319
<v Speaker 1>wasn't it? Lum nat was okay, Luma Naughtis because yeah,

0:36:07.320 --> 0:36:11.160
<v Speaker 1>Gierdarno's is a super thick one and Luma Natis is

0:36:11.239 --> 0:36:14.720
<v Speaker 1>kind of like in the middle. Um It's just so good.

0:36:14.920 --> 0:36:16.719
<v Speaker 1>It's so good, and it really it does is like

0:36:16.760 --> 0:36:18.719
<v Speaker 1>if you can't go, will you just go into your

0:36:18.760 --> 0:36:25.200
<v Speaker 1>second picka sponsored by Luma Naughtis and Gerdano's Classic. I

0:36:25.239 --> 0:36:27.439
<v Speaker 1>love Gino's too. We gotta throw them in there too.

0:36:27.480 --> 0:36:29.440
<v Speaker 1>And while we're here, why don't we throw in some

0:36:29.640 --> 0:36:34.279
<v Speaker 1>you know what? Was? What's the one place I hate?

0:36:34.320 --> 0:36:38.120
<v Speaker 1>I love pizza. What's the soup? Pizza? I hate Chicago

0:36:38.160 --> 0:36:40.880
<v Speaker 1>up and grind her. That is not pizza. Have ever

0:36:40.920 --> 0:36:45.880
<v Speaker 1>had that place, Tommy, No, it sounds like it's right

0:36:46.200 --> 0:36:50.839
<v Speaker 1>by Lincoln Park Zoo. So we kiss Papa, We'll go there.

0:36:50.880 --> 0:36:52.680
<v Speaker 1>Let's do a show. When this is all overall us

0:36:52.719 --> 0:36:55.720
<v Speaker 1>three make no money and just eat pizza. The last

0:36:55.880 --> 0:36:59.520
<v Speaker 1>time I traveled for comedy was to do Anthony Rizzo's

0:36:59.560 --> 0:37:03.680
<v Speaker 1>benefit in Chicago, and it was like the best time.

0:37:04.120 --> 0:37:07.040
<v Speaker 1>It was so fun, Like, yeah, it was great. So

0:37:07.280 --> 0:37:09.920
<v Speaker 1>that was That was the last time I flew to perform.

0:37:10.000 --> 0:37:12.960
<v Speaker 1>And I did it for I mean, some hot babes

0:37:13.040 --> 0:37:15.319
<v Speaker 1>to their wives. Some of them did not like me

0:37:17.360 --> 0:37:20.480
<v Speaker 1>because they deemed you a threat because I told them

0:37:20.480 --> 0:37:26.759
<v Speaker 1>that they were their first wives. Anyways, anyways, al right,

0:37:26.880 --> 0:37:31.640
<v Speaker 1>my number two pick is Game one NBA Finals, Jordan's

0:37:31.719 --> 0:37:34.759
<v Speaker 1>hitting six threes against the Blazers in the first half

0:37:34.760 --> 0:37:37.359
<v Speaker 1>and then hitting the shrug. I just think, you know,

0:37:37.960 --> 0:37:42.040
<v Speaker 1>was it uh like a wild moment that changed the events? No,

0:37:42.320 --> 0:37:45.239
<v Speaker 1>but it is like, just like Conic, it is so

0:37:45.280 --> 0:37:49.560
<v Speaker 1>impactful to the game. Like every every player now after

0:37:49.600 --> 0:37:51.799
<v Speaker 1>they hit some sort of streak, hits that shrug. And

0:37:51.800 --> 0:37:54.120
<v Speaker 1>I think it's because of Michael Jordan's so I have

0:37:54.200 --> 0:37:56.280
<v Speaker 1>to go in like as a kid, I just remember

0:37:56.360 --> 0:37:59.600
<v Speaker 1>doing the shrug and watching that moment and just being like,

0:37:59.680 --> 0:38:02.280
<v Speaker 1>I don't yeah, even jordanself was like I didn't realize

0:38:02.280 --> 0:38:05.239
<v Speaker 1>that was this good. I mean, how about his security

0:38:05.239 --> 0:38:10.600
<v Speaker 1>guard shrug. He's the goat of the shrug that dude

0:38:10.640 --> 0:38:15.600
<v Speaker 1>is I mean after the last dance that is the

0:38:15.680 --> 0:38:20.719
<v Speaker 1>last same But yeah, okay, so game one of first half,

0:38:20.960 --> 0:38:23.920
<v Speaker 1>which I can't remember what people's feelings were against the Blazers.

0:38:23.920 --> 0:38:25.960
<v Speaker 1>I think people are like, you know, the Bulls were

0:38:26.000 --> 0:38:28.400
<v Speaker 1>a heavy favorite still, but just hitting that and just

0:38:28.440 --> 0:38:30.600
<v Speaker 1>being like, yeah, you're not gonna beat Jordan and the

0:38:30.600 --> 0:38:36.440
<v Speaker 1>Bulls in the nineties. So all right, okay my number

0:38:36.440 --> 0:38:39.520
<v Speaker 1>two pick. I'm going pretty modern for my my top

0:38:39.600 --> 0:38:42.239
<v Speaker 1>two all we only have to go to last year,

0:38:42.719 --> 0:38:45.319
<v Speaker 1>um the And I think it's because of the photograph

0:38:45.719 --> 0:38:48.840
<v Speaker 1>that this is, like so it's just like burned in

0:38:48.880 --> 0:38:52.719
<v Speaker 1>my memory. I can like, we're recording this in our

0:38:52.760 --> 0:38:55.239
<v Speaker 1>dining room. I can see into the living room of

0:38:55.280 --> 0:38:57.680
<v Speaker 1>where I was standing when we saw it, and it's

0:38:57.760 --> 0:39:01.480
<v Speaker 1>the Kauai Game seven buzzer beater. Over the seventies sixers

0:39:01.560 --> 0:39:05.479
<v Speaker 1>to send them to the NBA Finals. I mean, that's

0:39:05.560 --> 0:39:10.879
<v Speaker 1>a big deal. And he and then just everyone around him,

0:39:11.000 --> 0:39:14.759
<v Speaker 1>him on the ground, him just like so he's not

0:39:14.880 --> 0:39:17.040
<v Speaker 1>you know, he's not even pretending to not care. He

0:39:17.280 --> 0:39:20.200
<v Speaker 1>maybe doesn't even care, just like the Kauai of it all.

0:39:20.880 --> 0:39:24.239
<v Speaker 1>And yet it's just that that photo like won all

0:39:24.320 --> 0:39:27.480
<v Speaker 1>these awards. It just to me, that is like a

0:39:27.560 --> 0:39:31.440
<v Speaker 1>moment and like watching him go up and and Luca

0:39:31.520 --> 0:39:35.360
<v Speaker 1>with that fade away through that sort of was felt

0:39:35.400 --> 0:39:38.560
<v Speaker 1>reminiscent of it. But this just had so much on

0:39:38.600 --> 0:39:41.040
<v Speaker 1>the line, and for it to be such a like

0:39:41.239 --> 0:39:46.120
<v Speaker 1>clutch just really even tempered person to do it, I

0:39:46.160 --> 0:39:51.000
<v Speaker 1>think made the aftermath of it so much more memorable.

0:39:51.560 --> 0:39:53.919
<v Speaker 1>I remember watching that game. I was at a bar

0:39:54.239 --> 0:39:57.680
<v Speaker 1>with a huge seventy six Ers fan, and I remember

0:39:57.680 --> 0:39:59.440
<v Speaker 1>that moment so well of when it was bouncing on

0:39:59.480 --> 0:40:03.680
<v Speaker 1>the rim and he literally collapsed to the ground and

0:40:05.320 --> 0:40:12.680
<v Speaker 1>Patrick Schroder it was exactly I didn't like the name

0:40:12.719 --> 0:40:16.960
<v Speaker 1>drop like that, the name drop we feel for you,

0:40:17.080 --> 0:40:20.839
<v Speaker 1>we love you. It is so heartbreaking and yeah, it's

0:40:20.840 --> 0:40:24.080
<v Speaker 1>like a commercial where the whole world stops to watch it.

0:40:24.080 --> 0:40:28.040
<v Speaker 1>Bounce off the rim four times. Uh yeah. And then

0:40:28.120 --> 0:40:29.920
<v Speaker 1>and then the fact that they went on to beat

0:40:30.200 --> 0:40:33.680
<v Speaker 1>one of the best Warriors teams. I know Katie was hurt,

0:40:33.760 --> 0:40:36.399
<v Speaker 1>but it's just like and then he bounced like Kau

0:40:36.520 --> 0:40:38.240
<v Speaker 1>I want it, and then he balanced. It just adds

0:40:38.280 --> 0:40:41.759
<v Speaker 1>to the legend of him. Yeah. Absolutely, I think if

0:40:41.800 --> 0:40:44.600
<v Speaker 1>they had not gone on to win, this would still

0:40:44.640 --> 0:40:47.200
<v Speaker 1>be an incredible moment. But this was kind of like

0:40:47.480 --> 0:40:52.880
<v Speaker 1>the beginning of then what was a wildly impressive finals

0:40:52.920 --> 0:40:55.680
<v Speaker 1>performance by the Raptors, kind of as a whole, like

0:40:56.480 --> 0:40:58.880
<v Speaker 1>Caau I get so much credit as he deserves, but

0:40:58.960 --> 0:41:01.239
<v Speaker 1>like Van Lee, I didn't even know who that man

0:41:01.600 --> 0:41:06.200
<v Speaker 1>was before Rockford's finest I'm like all up in the

0:41:06.280 --> 0:41:09.920
<v Speaker 1>Van Vleet family, like I loved all the children, Like

0:41:10.239 --> 0:41:12.359
<v Speaker 1>it's just Nick Nurse. Why do I know this man?

0:41:12.440 --> 0:41:16.160
<v Speaker 1>Why do I know his hats? Like it exposed us

0:41:16.239 --> 0:41:19.560
<v Speaker 1>to like all of these cool, fun characters that we

0:41:19.600 --> 0:41:22.720
<v Speaker 1>did not know. I think we're it also like exposed

0:41:22.760 --> 0:41:25.319
<v Speaker 1>basketball fans because for a couple of reasons, is that

0:41:25.719 --> 0:41:28.239
<v Speaker 1>one when Dwayne Casey was fired from the Raptors, people like,

0:41:28.280 --> 0:41:31.040
<v Speaker 1>what are you doing? And then they ended up bringing

0:41:31.080 --> 0:41:33.319
<v Speaker 1>on a guy who brought him the fire like help

0:41:33.360 --> 0:41:35.239
<v Speaker 1>coaching to the finals and now isn't the coach of

0:41:35.280 --> 0:41:38.480
<v Speaker 1>the year? Um just and then Fred VanVleet who was

0:41:38.600 --> 0:41:41.640
<v Speaker 1>undrafted and then these playoffs two of like we're seeing

0:41:41.640 --> 0:41:45.160
<v Speaker 1>like Jimmy Butler, Fred VanVleet like players. That's why I

0:41:45.160 --> 0:41:47.520
<v Speaker 1>feel like the draft matters, but just doesn't matter that

0:41:47.640 --> 0:41:49.600
<v Speaker 1>much that you have the number one pick. Is your

0:41:49.640 --> 0:41:53.160
<v Speaker 1>team capable of drafting well? And like looking for talent

0:41:53.200 --> 0:41:56.120
<v Speaker 1>outside of these prospects, I think is is huge. Yeah,

0:41:56.280 --> 0:41:58.080
<v Speaker 1>and a lot of teams are not able to get

0:41:58.400 --> 0:42:00.680
<v Speaker 1>It's like Nick's you should not be mad that you

0:42:00.719 --> 0:42:02.600
<v Speaker 1>didn't get the number one pick, No, because you would

0:42:02.600 --> 0:42:04.120
<v Speaker 1>have gotten it and you would have sucked something up

0:42:04.120 --> 0:42:07.600
<v Speaker 1>in you would have drafted like a mailbox. And we

0:42:07.680 --> 0:42:12.919
<v Speaker 1>support the USPS. That's the wrong way. Okay, um, let's

0:42:12.920 --> 0:42:14.520
<v Speaker 1>take one more break and then we'll be back with

0:42:14.560 --> 0:42:28.480
<v Speaker 1>our final picks. Are we having fun today? And we're

0:42:28.520 --> 0:42:31.799
<v Speaker 1>back Tommy. How this works is since you are guests,

0:42:31.800 --> 0:42:33.880
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna be our big finale. So Megan and I

0:42:33.880 --> 0:42:36.080
<v Speaker 1>will pick and you'll you'll take us home. Megan, do

0:42:36.120 --> 0:42:39.120
<v Speaker 1>you want to? Yeah, I'll go first. Okay, So mine

0:42:39.640 --> 0:42:44.760
<v Speaker 1>is a moment that came after the biggest moment of

0:42:45.120 --> 0:42:49.680
<v Speaker 1>the Lebron and the Cabs coming back from down three one.

0:42:50.040 --> 0:42:54.799
<v Speaker 1>But when Lebron says, Cleveland, this is for you, Oh,

0:42:55.239 --> 0:42:59.479
<v Speaker 1>I mean a whole city deserved to celebrate. I hope

0:42:59.520 --> 0:43:02.719
<v Speaker 1>they like that in their hearts forever. I love Cleveland

0:43:02.920 --> 0:43:05.880
<v Speaker 1>so much. And you know, I hear them say this

0:43:05.960 --> 0:43:09.560
<v Speaker 1>is going to be the Browns year, but but I

0:43:09.600 --> 0:43:11.560
<v Speaker 1>don't know. But I don't know if it will be.

0:43:11.960 --> 0:43:16.120
<v Speaker 1>So it that just to me that like is sports

0:43:16.320 --> 0:43:19.480
<v Speaker 1>of like this entire city, who's gone through so much,

0:43:19.640 --> 0:43:23.319
<v Speaker 1>who who raised this guy who lost, this guy hated him,

0:43:23.719 --> 0:43:27.439
<v Speaker 1>Chad Zoomac burned his jersey. Then he comes back and

0:43:27.480 --> 0:43:32.320
<v Speaker 1>then and then they win in the most dramatic, incredible,

0:43:32.400 --> 0:43:36.880
<v Speaker 1>against all odds way, and a kid from that town

0:43:37.320 --> 0:43:40.479
<v Speaker 1>is like, I did this for this town. It gives

0:43:40.480 --> 0:43:44.960
<v Speaker 1>me chills. It's so emotional and amazing. And when you

0:43:45.000 --> 0:43:47.040
<v Speaker 1>watch the last inns and you see all that footage

0:43:47.040 --> 0:43:50.120
<v Speaker 1>of Jordan's down on the ground because he he was

0:43:50.239 --> 0:43:54.399
<v Speaker 1>mourning his father. So it's such a real and raw way.

0:43:55.000 --> 0:43:59.080
<v Speaker 1>I like this this Cleveland, this is for you. Is

0:43:59.160 --> 0:44:02.520
<v Speaker 1>kind of that spectrum. But it's like the city is

0:44:02.560 --> 0:44:07.600
<v Speaker 1>still alive and he brought it back, Like Lebron made

0:44:07.719 --> 0:44:11.680
<v Speaker 1>Cleveland have an economy again in a lot of ways.

0:44:11.840 --> 0:44:15.640
<v Speaker 1>And and I think him being gone hurts them drastically,

0:44:15.800 --> 0:44:19.240
<v Speaker 1>you know, like when when he is there, they do better.

0:44:19.360 --> 0:44:23.120
<v Speaker 1>And I mean I think the Saints ended up winning

0:44:23.400 --> 0:44:26.400
<v Speaker 1>beating the Colts the year that Katrina happened, and everyone

0:44:26.480 --> 0:44:28.800
<v Speaker 1>was really really happy for the Saints in New Orleans.

0:44:28.880 --> 0:44:32.480
<v Speaker 1>I obviously was not, but like when something happens for

0:44:32.520 --> 0:44:36.000
<v Speaker 1>an entire city, like whether you're a sports fan or not,

0:44:36.120 --> 0:44:42.000
<v Speaker 1>I think it's just really it's really incredible. And yeah,

0:44:40.560 --> 0:44:45.200
<v Speaker 1>that's really emotional. I was getting really emotional, you know.

0:44:45.320 --> 0:44:49.200
<v Speaker 1>I love like a Midwestern city with a chip on

0:44:49.239 --> 0:44:52.200
<v Speaker 1>its shoulder. Yeah, that's why it was tough to watch

0:44:52.680 --> 0:44:55.399
<v Speaker 1>Indians versus Cubs that year, even though I was rooting

0:44:55.400 --> 0:44:58.480
<v Speaker 1>for the Cubs. Yeah, I like, I was rooting for

0:44:58.520 --> 0:45:04.680
<v Speaker 1>the Indians. You were, yeah, they deserve happy Cleveland. That Like, listen,

0:45:04.840 --> 0:45:07.799
<v Speaker 1>Chicago has enough you hear me say this. Obviously the

0:45:07.880 --> 0:45:11.600
<v Speaker 1>Cubs are different, but it's like, you guys won six championships.

0:45:11.880 --> 0:45:15.200
<v Speaker 1>You've had three Stanley Cup Championships, the White Sox of

0:45:15.239 --> 0:45:20.560
<v Speaker 1>one pick up fucking team and celebrate that. Okay, all right, okay,

0:45:21.200 --> 0:45:23.239
<v Speaker 1>do you c J, were you gonna pick something for

0:45:23.280 --> 0:45:24.600
<v Speaker 1>that game? Because that was my guest that you were

0:45:24.640 --> 0:45:27.280
<v Speaker 1>going to do the block. But I just talked about

0:45:27.280 --> 0:45:30.399
<v Speaker 1>it so much on and and sometimes a lot of mine,

0:45:30.600 --> 0:45:33.279
<v Speaker 1>a lot of my picks aren't like necessarily the the

0:45:33.320 --> 0:45:37.160
<v Speaker 1>absolute greatest. It's like it deserves to be mentioned. Oh wow,

0:45:37.239 --> 0:45:41.319
<v Speaker 1>what what that's what we should call the show deserves

0:45:40.520 --> 0:45:44.279
<v Speaker 1>it deserves to be noted. But these are actually not

0:45:44.320 --> 0:45:47.480
<v Speaker 1>the greatest, which it leads me into my next pick. Um. No,

0:45:47.600 --> 0:45:50.120
<v Speaker 1>but my next pick is it's It's a game I've

0:45:50.120 --> 0:45:53.080
<v Speaker 1>only become familiar with. And so I'm a Lakers fan

0:45:53.200 --> 0:45:57.839
<v Speaker 1>right now, right now. Uh. In my big my big

0:45:57.840 --> 0:46:00.120
<v Speaker 1>bit on Twitter is I like to tell people I've

0:46:00.120 --> 0:46:02.920
<v Speaker 1>been a Lakers fan since I was a baby. Whatever.

0:46:03.000 --> 0:46:04.799
<v Speaker 1>Whenever I'm jumping on the bat fan wagon of something,

0:46:04.880 --> 0:46:06.040
<v Speaker 1>I say, what do you talk? I've been a fan

0:46:06.080 --> 0:46:09.440
<v Speaker 1>of them since I was a baby, been a fan

0:46:09.480 --> 0:46:11.880
<v Speaker 1>of verse and you tell us, can you take us

0:46:11.920 --> 0:46:14.359
<v Speaker 1>through the NBA teams You've been a fan of, Yes,

0:46:14.520 --> 0:46:19.319
<v Speaker 1>the Bulls, the Calves and the Lakers. Okay, alright, so

0:46:19.360 --> 0:46:22.080
<v Speaker 1>only three, but also like there have been some teams

0:46:22.080 --> 0:46:25.120
<v Speaker 1>I've gotten because I like the hat, Like yeah, so

0:46:25.160 --> 0:46:27.719
<v Speaker 1>I like, aren't you. Aren't you a Nuggets fan? Now? No,

0:46:27.880 --> 0:46:31.080
<v Speaker 1>I like Bull Bowl a lot, but but this current series,

0:46:31.080 --> 0:46:33.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm rooting for the Nuggets because I'd rather the Lakers

0:46:33.120 --> 0:46:36.080
<v Speaker 1>play the Nuggets if they advance. That. Um. That was

0:46:36.120 --> 0:46:38.160
<v Speaker 1>something I realized when I went to New York is

0:46:38.200 --> 0:46:39.959
<v Speaker 1>that people will just wear the head of a team

0:46:39.960 --> 0:46:43.560
<v Speaker 1>that they don't like, Oh yeah, that they don't like, Well,

0:46:43.600 --> 0:46:45.879
<v Speaker 1>that just because they think the hat looks cool. Because

0:46:45.960 --> 0:46:48.040
<v Speaker 1>I found that out because I got in the street

0:46:48.040 --> 0:46:49.399
<v Speaker 1>wearing the Bulls at once. I was like, oh yeah,

0:46:49.440 --> 0:46:53.160
<v Speaker 1>Bulls fan, and he just glared at me. I have

0:46:53.239 --> 0:46:55.560
<v Speaker 1>a joke about this, where like if I ever see

0:46:55.600 --> 0:46:59.120
<v Speaker 1>someone in Colt Skier in l A or New York there,

0:46:59.160 --> 0:47:03.160
<v Speaker 1>they're they're not doing well, like they're they've gotten that

0:47:03.239 --> 0:47:06.520
<v Speaker 1>gear for free somewhere and they are very surprised that

0:47:06.600 --> 0:47:09.319
<v Speaker 1>I'm like ed you and James, and they're like what

0:47:09.600 --> 0:47:13.000
<v Speaker 1>they're like digging for the trash is that you're They're like, well,

0:47:13.040 --> 0:47:14.600
<v Speaker 1>that guy's ed you and James Jegs, I'm gonna go

0:47:14.640 --> 0:47:16.920
<v Speaker 1>up to him and he's eating like a half eaten

0:47:17.000 --> 0:47:20.480
<v Speaker 1>cake that was thrown out of the garbage. But but listen,

0:47:20.480 --> 0:47:23.680
<v Speaker 1>he got a cool jersey. Okay, so uh um. So

0:47:23.719 --> 0:47:26.719
<v Speaker 1>it's a Lakers moment and it is game since the

0:47:26.800 --> 0:47:30.800
<v Speaker 1>night Finals, cream Up dul Jabbar was out their center

0:47:31.080 --> 0:47:35.080
<v Speaker 1>and Magic Johnson was a rookie and he played every position,

0:47:35.120 --> 0:47:39.040
<v Speaker 1>including center and they won. Could you imagine if if

0:47:39.080 --> 0:47:43.040
<v Speaker 1>like Zion, That's like if Zion was to again, granted

0:47:43.080 --> 0:47:46.480
<v Speaker 1>like the Lakers were a still like a dynasty team

0:47:46.560 --> 0:47:49.520
<v Speaker 1>at the time, but like to be able to do that,

0:47:49.760 --> 0:47:52.399
<v Speaker 1>and he's like he was a point guard like what

0:47:52.480 --> 0:47:55.800
<v Speaker 1>was the six six maybe maybe even shorter, and he

0:47:56.000 --> 0:47:58.080
<v Speaker 1>filled in for cream Up dul Jabbar and they closed

0:47:58.080 --> 0:48:00.919
<v Speaker 1>out that series and one. Yeah, that's on a lot

0:48:00.920 --> 0:48:03.520
<v Speaker 1>of lists. Yeah yeah, I mean it's kind of like

0:48:03.560 --> 0:48:08.360
<v Speaker 1>me finding out yesterday that p J. Tucker is a center. True, Okay,

0:48:08.400 --> 0:48:11.000
<v Speaker 1>I guess I'm a center. Yeah. I mean, the thing

0:48:11.120 --> 0:48:16.759
<v Speaker 1>is like they didn't they were the Lakers were like,

0:48:16.800 --> 0:48:19.000
<v Speaker 1>we have a center and he's maybe the greatest to

0:48:19.000 --> 0:48:21.400
<v Speaker 1>ever do it. But but he was the problem with

0:48:21.400 --> 0:48:24.480
<v Speaker 1>that too, is he refuses to play center Anthony Davis

0:48:24.560 --> 0:48:27.560
<v Speaker 1>against his team, like the Lakers could sweep but any

0:48:27.600 --> 0:48:29.879
<v Speaker 1>Davis Like, No, I love to shoot threes and it's

0:48:29.920 --> 0:48:35.280
<v Speaker 1>like your fourteen feet So that's the only thing preventing

0:48:35.280 --> 0:48:39.640
<v Speaker 1>them from winning this series. So Game six, NBA Finals,

0:48:39.920 --> 0:48:42.920
<v Speaker 1>Magic Johnson doing it all? And would they be? I

0:48:42.960 --> 0:48:46.000
<v Speaker 1>have no idea? Okay, And this was this was seven

0:48:46.080 --> 0:48:48.000
<v Speaker 1>years before you were born, so you were a baby.

0:48:48.040 --> 0:48:50.680
<v Speaker 1>So you actually have been a Lakers fan since you

0:48:50.719 --> 0:48:54.120
<v Speaker 1>were a baby. Okay, So I just I like, I'm

0:48:54.160 --> 0:48:57.480
<v Speaker 1>glad that I'm married to someone who's honest and has

0:48:57.520 --> 0:49:01.200
<v Speaker 1>good loyalty and has exposed how stupid he has is honesty. Um,

0:49:01.239 --> 0:49:04.840
<v Speaker 1>all right, Tommy, bring have any honorable mentions? Um? No,

0:49:05.040 --> 0:49:09.880
<v Speaker 1>I need to save them for later picks. Yeah, okay, okay, Tommy,

0:49:10.000 --> 0:49:13.279
<v Speaker 1>bring us to the promised playant. Look, you know what

0:49:13.280 --> 0:49:15.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna pick. I have to pick this. I'm a

0:49:15.560 --> 0:49:17.919
<v Speaker 1>deep dish chopper at heart. Yeah, I have to pick.

0:49:18.040 --> 0:49:22.640
<v Speaker 1>Jordan's the last shot ninety eight, Game six, his last

0:49:22.640 --> 0:49:24.239
<v Speaker 1>shot as a Bowl should have been the last shot

0:49:24.280 --> 0:49:29.000
<v Speaker 1>of his career, but it's like the name of it

0:49:29.080 --> 0:49:33.960
<v Speaker 1>because he came back as a wizard. Yeah, it's it's

0:49:34.000 --> 0:49:37.000
<v Speaker 1>the best. I mean, reliving it through the last dance

0:49:37.040 --> 0:49:38.759
<v Speaker 1>was so amazing. But it's just like such a mis

0:49:38.760 --> 0:49:41.360
<v Speaker 1>making thing for this guy who was the greatest of

0:49:41.360 --> 0:49:43.320
<v Speaker 1>all time to hit the game winning shot of the

0:49:43.360 --> 0:49:46.080
<v Speaker 1>Finals in his last year as a bowl It's it's truly,

0:49:46.560 --> 0:49:49.360
<v Speaker 1>you know, a real life hero and it's it's really amazing.

0:49:49.400 --> 0:49:51.200
<v Speaker 1>And he's so he's so nice too. That's why I

0:49:51.239 --> 0:49:54.680
<v Speaker 1>love about it. He really treats people well and that.

0:49:54.840 --> 0:49:57.680
<v Speaker 1>But I think that that you'll never find a shot

0:49:58.160 --> 0:50:01.400
<v Speaker 1>as important as that in the history of sport. Yeah,

0:50:01.440 --> 0:50:05.400
<v Speaker 1>the sequence of it all like coming down stealing it

0:50:05.440 --> 0:50:08.800
<v Speaker 1>from what was Karl Malone like yeah, and then tripling

0:50:08.800 --> 0:50:11.200
<v Speaker 1>it like it was. That was like truly a movie,

0:50:11.920 --> 0:50:14.799
<v Speaker 1>Like everything slowed down because he got to bring it up,

0:50:14.840 --> 0:50:17.279
<v Speaker 1>and he's like he settled the whole team down, like

0:50:17.360 --> 0:50:20.240
<v Speaker 1>kind of ice called ice. So and then the controversial

0:50:20.280 --> 0:50:24.600
<v Speaker 1>push off on Byron Russell. So you watch it. I mean,

0:50:24.880 --> 0:50:26.840
<v Speaker 1>it's not that he doesn't touch him. I'm not you know,

0:50:27.640 --> 0:50:30.160
<v Speaker 1>I'm not a crazy person. He obviously touches him. But

0:50:30.200 --> 0:50:33.439
<v Speaker 1>I I think if any ref called that, they would

0:50:33.440 --> 0:50:36.839
<v Speaker 1>be the most insane ref in history. That's how That's

0:50:36.840 --> 0:50:39.080
<v Speaker 1>how I feel about Reggie pushing off on short and

0:50:39.280 --> 0:50:41.160
<v Speaker 1>it's like they all got away with it at some

0:50:41.239 --> 0:50:45.400
<v Speaker 1>point that like that's just sort of I don't know.

0:50:46.680 --> 0:50:49.520
<v Speaker 1>I think the last like five seconds and I'm and

0:50:49.560 --> 0:50:52.799
<v Speaker 1>I do, I do think this is how they officiate.

0:50:53.080 --> 0:50:55.680
<v Speaker 1>But it feels like in the closing seconds of a

0:50:55.800 --> 0:51:00.440
<v Speaker 1>very important close game, unless it's like a greedious you

0:51:00.600 --> 0:51:03.880
<v Speaker 1>kind of got to like take the whistle out. But

0:51:03.960 --> 0:51:06.440
<v Speaker 1>if I'm saying, if someone even looks at the Pacers,

0:51:06.440 --> 0:51:08.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, blow the whistle. So I only I do

0:51:08.760 --> 0:51:11.840
<v Speaker 1>say that knowing that I'm a hypocrite. Yeah, No, I

0:51:11.880 --> 0:51:14.640
<v Speaker 1>think in that move in particular, there's so many different

0:51:14.680 --> 0:51:17.920
<v Speaker 1>iterations of it that REST don't know what to call,

0:51:18.040 --> 0:51:20.239
<v Speaker 1>Like the push up. I see Kauai he does that

0:51:20.320 --> 0:51:22.799
<v Speaker 1>hook when he's driving to the basket, just like trying

0:51:22.840 --> 0:51:25.920
<v Speaker 1>to clear space, and they just started calling offensive fowls

0:51:25.960 --> 0:51:29.800
<v Speaker 1>on it, so like it's a debatable move to call.

0:51:29.880 --> 0:51:32.360
<v Speaker 1>And also but in that time, as a basketball fan overall,

0:51:32.400 --> 0:51:34.040
<v Speaker 1>it's like just let him play, you know, It's like

0:51:34.440 --> 0:51:36.879
<v Speaker 1>the time play. It's like you're gonna decide the fate

0:51:36.960 --> 0:51:39.680
<v Speaker 1>of this game, fade of a series on a put

0:51:39.800 --> 0:51:43.279
<v Speaker 1>like a tiny push off. Yeah, and then he was,

0:51:43.360 --> 0:51:46.080
<v Speaker 1>you know, thirty five. I think he was, which is

0:51:46.239 --> 0:51:48.160
<v Speaker 1>which would make it cool if Lebron one this year

0:51:48.320 --> 0:51:53.800
<v Speaker 1>at five and then I want to play for the Wizards.

0:51:55.200 --> 0:51:58.040
<v Speaker 1>Lebron went to play for the Wizards. I was, Oh

0:51:58.120 --> 0:52:01.520
<v Speaker 1>my god, he's just like, indeed, see he's going to

0:52:01.640 --> 0:52:04.759
<v Speaker 1>all of like the Supreme Court hearing. I like, the

0:52:05.160 --> 0:52:07.719
<v Speaker 1>only way that's gonna happen is because Lebron's like, I'm

0:52:07.719 --> 0:52:10.800
<v Speaker 1>going to run for Congress and I am a page

0:52:11.440 --> 0:52:17.080
<v Speaker 1>in the Capitol. Yes, that would be incredible. Biden puts

0:52:17.120 --> 0:52:22.120
<v Speaker 1>him on a task force. Look, we've had a player coach.

0:52:22.160 --> 0:52:24.759
<v Speaker 1>We need a player congress. That's the last thing we

0:52:24.800 --> 0:52:28.279
<v Speaker 1>need because we've had NFL player congressman. I think we

0:52:28.320 --> 0:52:30.440
<v Speaker 1>need a player president. But at the same time, it's

0:52:30.480 --> 0:52:32.680
<v Speaker 1>also like, hey, I gotta leave this this hearing. I

0:52:32.719 --> 0:52:36.719
<v Speaker 1>gotta and I want a player president. When I say that,

0:52:36.760 --> 0:52:39.359
<v Speaker 1>I mean I want Lebron, not Gordon Hayward. Okay, I

0:52:39.360 --> 0:52:41.719
<v Speaker 1>want I want the type of let me pick the

0:52:41.719 --> 0:52:44.719
<v Speaker 1>player who gets to be president. Yes, that's a that's

0:52:44.719 --> 0:52:48.719
<v Speaker 1>a great pick. I have that picture autographed of him

0:52:48.760 --> 0:52:55.520
<v Speaker 1>holding Michael Jordan's. Okay, Mike Myers, So those are one

0:52:55.640 --> 0:52:58.080
<v Speaker 1>Mike Myers. They were hosting us a now can and

0:52:58.120 --> 0:53:01.360
<v Speaker 1>I got it signed you sign my favorite photo. You

0:53:01.360 --> 0:53:03.520
<v Speaker 1>guys are my favorite comedian. Now, can I ask a

0:53:03.600 --> 0:53:07.080
<v Speaker 1>really stupid question since we're talking about photos. You guys

0:53:07.080 --> 0:53:10.759
<v Speaker 1>have seen that photo of like Magic walking into the

0:53:10.800 --> 0:53:16.239
<v Speaker 1>finals and it's surrounded but that's fake? Right? Yes? Yes, okay.

0:53:16.400 --> 0:53:18.520
<v Speaker 1>I was like, I think I know the person who

0:53:18.560 --> 0:53:21.759
<v Speaker 1>photoshopped and I'm not quite sure, but it's so it's

0:53:21.800 --> 0:53:27.279
<v Speaker 1>Mike Magic Johnson walking into Uh it's not Caesar's. It

0:53:27.320 --> 0:53:29.560
<v Speaker 1>would have been the Forum, I think the form, yes,

0:53:29.800 --> 0:53:34.160
<v Speaker 1>and he's in and Mike it's like Mike Tyson. Who

0:53:34.160 --> 0:53:37.120
<v Speaker 1>else is behind? It's a bunch of like crude. I mean,

0:53:37.120 --> 0:53:40.680
<v Speaker 1>it's like all these famous but then but then not

0:53:40.760 --> 0:53:43.440
<v Speaker 1>Marilyn Monroe. But there's definitely people that you're like, I

0:53:43.480 --> 0:53:47.280
<v Speaker 1>don't know, people are mem ifying it and now no,

0:53:47.280 --> 0:53:50.040
<v Speaker 1>now people think that original photo was real. As if

0:53:50.080 --> 0:53:53.239
<v Speaker 1>Magic Johnson walked in with all those people, it's like,

0:53:53.239 --> 0:53:54.919
<v Speaker 1>all are you guys are ready to walk in? All

0:53:54.960 --> 0:53:58.040
<v Speaker 1>the legends of this time. All the reactions to it

0:53:58.120 --> 0:54:01.359
<v Speaker 1>are is if it's real, like what a crew? Yeah,

0:54:01.440 --> 0:54:03.600
<v Speaker 1>when Di and I remember that, like, we wouldn't know

0:54:03.719 --> 0:54:06.239
<v Speaker 1>what that event was if that was real. There was

0:54:06.280 --> 0:54:07.560
<v Speaker 1>one one last thing I want to bring up that

0:54:07.600 --> 0:54:09.359
<v Speaker 1>chat that I forgot that I learned from The Last

0:54:09.440 --> 0:54:12.040
<v Speaker 1>Dance that made it really more special to me was

0:54:12.080 --> 0:54:15.240
<v Speaker 1>that they showed Michael Jordan celebrating that title by drunkenly

0:54:15.320 --> 0:54:17.600
<v Speaker 1>playing the piano, which is something I've been doing for

0:54:17.640 --> 0:54:21.759
<v Speaker 1>so many If there's anything I like, it's being drunk

0:54:21.800 --> 0:54:25.200
<v Speaker 1>and playing the piano, Like did Jordans go to a

0:54:25.239 --> 0:54:28.720
<v Speaker 1>wedding at a nice hotel? Did get that piano? Tommy?

0:54:28.800 --> 0:54:31.239
<v Speaker 1>I just came up with next time we're together? Or

0:54:31.239 --> 0:54:32.600
<v Speaker 1>if you want to do this on your own, you

0:54:32.600 --> 0:54:35.640
<v Speaker 1>should film, or you should make a music or a

0:54:35.680 --> 0:54:39.000
<v Speaker 1>song or music video about the like summing up the

0:54:39.080 --> 0:54:41.799
<v Speaker 1>Last Dance, Um, oh my god, and you should like

0:54:41.960 --> 0:54:44.319
<v Speaker 1>recruit we should rent a hotel with a piano in

0:54:44.360 --> 0:54:47.080
<v Speaker 1>it and you just like you remember how like movies

0:54:47.080 --> 0:54:49.280
<v Speaker 1>in the nineties would have the song and the credits

0:54:49.280 --> 0:54:52.760
<v Speaker 1>would just sum up the whole movie. Yes, we should.

0:54:52.800 --> 0:54:54.719
<v Speaker 1>We should write one where it's you summing up the

0:54:54.719 --> 0:54:58.920
<v Speaker 1>whole last dance, and you're it's like you cigar Champagne

0:55:00.600 --> 0:55:04.359
<v Speaker 1>singing that eating pizza and them throwing and then all

0:55:04.400 --> 0:55:06.840
<v Speaker 1>of like your your yes men around you going like

0:55:06.960 --> 0:55:10.279
<v Speaker 1>we love this guy. That's what's a sad thing about

0:55:10.320 --> 0:55:12.280
<v Speaker 1>watching that last dance. We was thinking about those guys

0:55:12.320 --> 0:55:14.600
<v Speaker 1>lives and like their wives and kids who are like, yeah,

0:55:14.640 --> 0:55:17.000
<v Speaker 1>he's hanging out with Michael Jordan again, won't come home.
