00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:05,640
Speaker 1: like the one o'clock hour our time that day. I

99

Speaker 1: o'clock in the afternoon, and uh so, uh.

101
00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:13,400
Speaker 2: It caught my eye.

102
00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:15,719
Speaker 1: You know, like you walk into a sports radio station

103
00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:18,440
Speaker 1: and the TV's are everywhere, and they had the four

104
00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:20,800
Speaker 1: screen thing on and I'm like, okay, there's this game.

105
00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:22,880
Speaker 1: We had a women's tournament on another TV. Art were

00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:25,160
Speaker 1: checking that out and I'm a whole hang on second,

107
00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:28,440

108
00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:30,760
Speaker 1: and a half to go? Uh, don't don't do that

109
00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:34,560
Speaker 1: to my bracket please. But they I had confidence that

110
00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:36,360
Speaker 1: they would do the darn thing in the last minute,

111
00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:36,720
Speaker 1: and they did.

112
00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:39,600
Speaker 4: They did, they did. Jayde Lyde is the real deal.

113
00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:42,560
Speaker 3: I'm glad people were getting to see him on a

114
00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:47,080
Speaker 3: on a national stage because he is, I mean, goodness

00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:50,000
Speaker 3: gracious number one. He gonna found all your your bigs

116
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:52,440
Speaker 3: out and then he just you can't stop him. You

117
00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:56,280
Speaker 3: can't stop him inside outside game, So you know, it's

118
00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:57,880
Speaker 3: it's it's good to see man.

119
00:05:58,920 --> 00:05:59,720
Speaker 2: San Diego State.

120
00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:04,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, among the performers tonight, Houston. A lot of people

121
00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:08,440
Speaker 1: have Houston cutting down the nets. They are still to

122
00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:12,159
Speaker 1: tip off just about a half hour away. And really

123
00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:14,560
Speaker 1: there's only been It looks like we got some others developing,

124
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:17,840
Speaker 1: but there's only been one really good game today. Colorado

125
00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:21,080
Speaker 1: gave Marquette everything that they can handle, but Perdue just

126
00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:24,720
Speaker 1: absolutely blew the doors off Utah State. Duke had no

127
00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:28,960
Speaker 1: trouble with James Madison. And now we're getting some close games.

128
00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:32,000
Speaker 1: Clemson and Baylor are tight. So's Alabama and Grand Canyon.

129
00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:33,760
Speaker 1: But they're still in the first half.

130
00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:37,039
Speaker 4: Remember what I said when these brackets came out. What'd

131
00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:40,600
Speaker 4: you say? And I said, don't sleep on Grand Canyon.

132
00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:44,400
Speaker 4: Oh oh, I remember I said. I said, I'm not

133
00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:49,680
Speaker 4: sleep on Grand These who can play. The astecs went

134
00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:52,279
Speaker 4: up there and played them. I'm telling you it was

135
00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:55,600
Speaker 4: a quad one game. They can play.

136
00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:58,640
Speaker 1: I listened to you, and I did it, in fact,

137
00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:02,240
Speaker 1: and got some hell here in the Bay Area, California

138
00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:04,560
Speaker 1: for it. Because they're going up against the only Bay

139
00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:07,760
Speaker 1: Area representative. They're going up against Saint Mary's and I

140
00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:10,680
Speaker 1: was like, Hey, this is a bad draw, y'all. This

141
00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:14,080
Speaker 1: isn't gonna go well. I just didn't think that was

142
00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:16,800
Speaker 1: gonna go well, and it did not. And so now

143
00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:20,200
Speaker 1: we'll see what they got against the four seed. First

144
00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:23,240
Speaker 1: half has been very, very tight. We'll follow along with

145
00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:26,920
Speaker 1: all of that. But let's circle back to that, because,

146
00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:30,320
Speaker 1: as we said, I'll only get to actually get responses

147
00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:31,920
Speaker 1: from you for a limited.

148
00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:34,680
Speaker 2: Time tonight, and so I.

149
00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:40,920
Speaker 1: Really want your response on this one, which is I

150
00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:44,880
Speaker 1: feel like I'm being lied to from I'm not going

151
00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:47,640
Speaker 1: to be one of these people. I promise, I swear

152
00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:49,680
Speaker 1: to you. I will not be one of these people

153
00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:52,559
Speaker 1: who goes, Okay, let me tell you what happened. Here's

154
00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:55,960
Speaker 1: what happened when I have no idea what happened, and

155
00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:59,360
Speaker 1: I am not, especially as a San Francisco Giants fan,

156
00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:03,840
Speaker 1: to do victory lapse on show Heyo Tani the person

157
00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:06,920
Speaker 1: because I actually am a real fan of the player.

158
00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:10,200
Speaker 1: I think him being out would be bad for baseball

159
00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:12,480
Speaker 1: if it distracts the hell out of the Dodgers all year,

160
00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:17,440
Speaker 1: I'm all for that. Like, no, I got no thing here,

161
00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:20,120
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. But here's what I know.

162
00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:24,080
Speaker 1: And I've never been an investigator, but when things are

163
00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:26,600
Speaker 1: going on, and you sit someone down.

164
00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:29,000
Speaker 2: It could even just be within your family.

165
00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:32,880
Speaker 1: You as a parent, I guarantee you've experienced this, and

166
00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:37,360
Speaker 1: you ask the question, whatever that question is, you ask

167
00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:41,160
Speaker 1: the question, and then you get the answer, and then

168
00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:42,880
Speaker 1: a few hours later.

169
00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:48,120
Speaker 2: The answer changes. That tells me you're lying.

170
00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:53,480
Speaker 1: You are lying to me, And especially then when the

171
00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:58,640
Speaker 1: second answer you give does not seem plausible, which in

172
00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:05,319
Speaker 1: this case is in twenty twenty four nine high priced

173
00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:11,240
Speaker 1: different wire transfers with the security measures that we currently

174
00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:17,880
Speaker 1: have in place supposedly are happening without the account holder's knowledge. Ephraim,

175
00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:22,079
Speaker 1: I don't know what happened, but I don't think that's it.

176
00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:24,640
Speaker 4: Now.

177
00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:30,640
Speaker 3: Let me just say this, Okay, that is not impossible

178
00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:37,080
Speaker 3: to do. Tell me how because if you've if you've

179
00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:44,079
Speaker 3: empowered someone to watch over your finances, which a lot

180
00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:49,199
Speaker 3: of athletes have learned, I mean, I know horror stories. Personally,

181
00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:55,960
Speaker 3: A lot of athletes have learned the hard way in

182
00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:59,280
Speaker 3: this where you trust somebody and they have access to

183
00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:02,000
Speaker 3: all of that, they have access to all of it.

184
00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:04,600
Speaker 3: I mean it's I mean, guys have lost thirty forty

185
00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:08,520
Speaker 3: million dollars on things they invested in. They had no

186
00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:14,120
Speaker 3: knowledge of and so especially with it being a language barrier,

187
00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:17,559
Speaker 3: you're coming over right. You trust someone and I don't look,

188
00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:20,800
Speaker 3: I don't know the situation. I'm just giving you the

189
00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:22,040
Speaker 3: other side of the coin.

190
00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:24,200
Speaker 2: I hear you.

191
00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:29,200
Speaker 3: You empower people in your organization that you trust and

192
00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:32,160
Speaker 3: that you think have your best interest at heart. Now,

193
00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:35,800
Speaker 3: the problem is some of those people you give access

194
00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:44,240
Speaker 3: to your life pretty much have ulterior motives and they

195
00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:46,439
Speaker 3: I'll tell you, I'm gonna tell you a quick story,

196
00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:49,800
Speaker 3: and it worked out in the benefit of the player,

197
00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:52,680
Speaker 3: but imagine if it didn't. So I had a good

198
00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:55,560
Speaker 3: friend of mine played a long time dynamic Hall of

199
00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:57,760
Speaker 3: Fame player. Not gonna even tell you the sport because

200
00:10:57,760 --> 00:11:01,600
Speaker 3: I don't want you to narrow it down. We were

201
00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:04,480
Speaker 3: doing something together and he came in and he was like, man,

202
00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:07,280
Speaker 3: I just got a call from my my financial guy.

203
00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:09,160
Speaker 3: And I'm like, what, what do you everything all right?

204
00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:11,640
Speaker 3: He was like, yeah, man, I got a six million

205
00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:15,440
Speaker 3: dollar check waiting on me. And I was like what.

206
00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:17,480
Speaker 3: He was like, yeah, he was just calling me right now,

207
00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:21,200
Speaker 3: like I got a a do you sign up? You

208
00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:24,640
Speaker 3: know a form? And he got a six million dollar

209
00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:26,360
Speaker 3: six point eight million dollar check for me, and I

210
00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:29,360
Speaker 3: was like from what he was like, man, like ten

211
00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:31,560
Speaker 3: years ago he had asked me to invest in something

212
00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:36,600
Speaker 3: and I said no, and he still put like a

213
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:41,840
Speaker 3: million dollars in and now it's you know, it was

214
00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:44,800
Speaker 3: sold and all that, and you know, so I just

215
00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:47,240
Speaker 3: made five point six million dollars.

216
00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:52,240
Speaker 4: They got crazy. That is, he said no.

217
00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:59,320
Speaker 3: And the guy still invested his money into it.

218
00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:06,040
Speaker 4: In this situation, it just worked out. But imagine that, right,

219
00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:09,679
Speaker 4: Imagine that now. Listen, I hear you.

220
00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:14,240
Speaker 1: I do think there's a difference between somebody having access

221
00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:18,400
Speaker 1: to accounts and someone being able to execute a wire transfer.

222
00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:22,760
Speaker 1: Those are two different things. And the wire transfer process

223
00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:25,040
Speaker 1: is not short. If you've ever tried to do it,

224
00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:27,000
Speaker 1: and I've never tried to do it with that amount

225
00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:27,760
Speaker 1: of money.

226
00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:30,960
Speaker 2: That's for sure. That's a little different.

227
00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:36,440
Speaker 1: And it still doesn't address why your story changed because

228
00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:41,000
Speaker 1: the original story that was literally set up to share

229
00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:46,599
Speaker 1: with ESPN from Otani's lawyers. They sent Ipe the interpreter

230
00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:50,200
Speaker 1: to go tell the story of I've got a gambling

231
00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:53,640
Speaker 1: problem and showhy stepped in and paid my debt.

232
00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:56,560
Speaker 2: That wasn't his story, it was their story.

233
00:12:57,160 --> 00:13:00,760
Speaker 1: And twenty four hours later, they changed it and said,

234
00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:05,560
Speaker 1: now we've got robbery, massive theft directly out of his

235
00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:09,600
Speaker 1: accounts with the word loan on them in a wire

236
00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:14,400
Speaker 1: transfer nine different times, totaling four and a half million dollars.

237
00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:16,880
Speaker 2: So again, Ephraim, I can be wrong, all.

238
00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:19,320
Speaker 1: Right, I'm just telling you that as you tell me

239
00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:22,120
Speaker 1: that story the first time, my answer is no, I

240
00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:25,800
Speaker 1: don't believe you.

241
00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:30,000
Speaker 3: You're and you're right. That sounds crazy. Now what if

242
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:35,000
Speaker 3: it's both? Okay, what if it's both. What if he

243
00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:39,280
Speaker 3: did settle up his gambling debts for him and with

244
00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:41,680
Speaker 3: that access that he got to settle those debts.

245
00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:42,520
Speaker 4: He continued on.

246
00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:46,079
Speaker 2: Okay, that's that's that. Now that's fair.

247
00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:49,079
Speaker 1: Let's address that coming up here in a second, because

248
00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:52,840
Speaker 1: what I also I also would love to hear about

249
00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:56,760
Speaker 1: is where this goes next. And if you are unaware,

250
00:13:57,120 --> 00:14:02,400
Speaker 1: Shoho Tani has announced that he will address tomorrow. The

251
00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:05,560
Speaker 1: Dodger clubhouse was open to the media for the first

252
00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:09,640
Speaker 1: time since this all went down midweek and today they've

253
00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:12,720
Speaker 1: got an exhibition game and the clubhouse was open and

254
00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:15,560
Speaker 1: the questions were asked and the Dodgers simply told the

255
00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:20,000
Speaker 1: reporters present show, hey, We'll be addressing this tomorrow, three

256
00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:23,440
Speaker 1: days before the season continues for the Dodgers. So that's

257
00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:25,720
Speaker 1: the big question is where's this going to go next?

258
00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:29,640
Speaker 1: Just like in basketball, a successful game plan starts with

259
00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:32,360
Speaker 1: the right players the team. Attractor supply brings hustle and

260
00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:34,640
Speaker 1: heart and that's what really sets them apart. So lace

261

Speaker 1: up your sneakers and make the winning play by heading

262

Speaker 1: in and find out along with me. I don't know

295
00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:24,360
Speaker 1: what's gonna happen. And it's completely We've all learned in

296
00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:27,120
Speaker 1: life to just worry about the things you can control.

297
00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:27,440
Speaker 2: Right.

298
00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:30,560
Speaker 1: I can't control this, so I'm not gonna worry about it.

299
00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:33,120
Speaker 1: I know that we're just gonna have some fun with it.

300
00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:34,200
Speaker 1: San Diego State.

301
00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:37,640
Speaker 2: And Yale coming up here in about an hour and

302
00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:38,080
Speaker 2: a half.

303
00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:41,640
Speaker 1: Did you know Discover once everyone to feel special. That's

304
00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:43,760
Speaker 1: why with your Discover card you have access to twenty

305
00:16:43,760 --> 00:16:47,920
Speaker 1: four to seven customer service as well as zero dollar

306
00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:54,280
Speaker 1: fraud liability, which means you're never held responsible for unauthorized purchases. Okay,

307
00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:58,520
Speaker 1: we were talking Otani, and you said, what if it's both?

308
00:16:58,720 --> 00:17:01,280
Speaker 2: In other words, if Otani did.

309
00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:06,399
Speaker 1: Green light paying for his friend, his interpreter and his

310
00:17:06,520 --> 00:17:10,879
Speaker 1: gambling debts, but he didn't green light this much, so

311
00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:14,840
Speaker 1: he started the process and then it continued. Okay, so

312
00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:17,960
Speaker 1: what if if that were again? There are a thousand

313
00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:21,320
Speaker 1: what ifs, but let's go with that scenario for a moment.

314
00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:22,880
Speaker 2: What would you say then.

315
00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:34,359
Speaker 3: You know, shame on you. In terms of the interpreter, like, huh,

316
00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:38,600
Speaker 3: we can talk in circles and we can go you know, speculatory.

317
00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:42,879
Speaker 3: I'm so curious to hear what he has to say tomorrow.

318
00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:53,040
Speaker 3: Me too, because I mean, what, let's say he is

319
00:17:53,160 --> 00:18:00,400
Speaker 3: at fault, then what who's he show?

320
00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:03,919
Speaker 1: Hey, well, okay, there's a number of different ways to

321
00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:08,600
Speaker 1: consider at fault. Though, there's a big difference between show,

322
00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:12,000
Speaker 1: he's got a gambling problem and these are his bets.

323
00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:15,719
Speaker 2: They are baseball, they're not baseball.

324
00:18:16,359 --> 00:18:21,480
Speaker 1: There's a big difference between that and Hey, my friend

325
00:18:21,560 --> 00:18:24,520
Speaker 1: needed a hand, and so I'm in position to give

326
00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:27,920
Speaker 1: it to him, and I did it. From an emotional standpoint,

327
00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:29,520
Speaker 1: I think most of us would look at that and

328
00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:33,000
Speaker 1: be like, I get it, that's so big deal. No

329
00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:35,160
Speaker 1: one's going to hate show. Hey Otani, if all he

330
00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:38,800
Speaker 1: was doing was paying for a friend. However, there's a problem.

331
00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:42,560
Speaker 1: He committed a federal crime in the process, and maybe

332
00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:47,520
Speaker 1: he did so without knowing it, and so yes, there's

333
00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:49,720
Speaker 1: going to be a very different sort of an outcry

334
00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:53,560
Speaker 1: or lock thereof, and a different process if that's the case.

335
00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:58,280
Speaker 1: But you still got a problem on your hands, because

336
00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:01,600
Speaker 1: why are transfers in California to do illegal? Bookmakers are

337
00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:06,480
Speaker 1: all kinds of illegal, like high level illegal. So if

338
00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:09,440
Speaker 1: he knew about those wire transfers, it's a problem, which

339
00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:12,720
Speaker 1: is why it sort of feels fishy to me that

340
00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:18,159
Speaker 1: y'all started with that story and then switched it to

341
00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:22,840
Speaker 1: say you were robbed. When robbing someone of that amount

342
00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:28,000
Speaker 1: of money in that way is next to impossible, and

343
00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:31,840
Speaker 1: that was not your story at first. So that's sort

344
00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:33,919
Speaker 1: of what goes to my mind. I wonder if jo

345
00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:36,480
Speaker 1: Hey did pick up for his buddy and then in

346
00:19:36,520 --> 00:19:40,840
Speaker 1: the process of admitting that, somebody went to them, someone

347
00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:44,000
Speaker 1: who's in the first name or full name rhymes with.

348
00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:47,480
Speaker 2: Sob Hanfred.

349
00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:53,680
Speaker 1: And when Ah, how about if we pick door number

350
00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:57,040
Speaker 1: two as far as what story we're going to use,

351
00:19:57,119 --> 00:19:59,160
Speaker 1: because I know you were just being a good guy,

352
00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:02,200
Speaker 1: but you committed a big old crime in the process,

353
00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:05,520
Speaker 1: and we really don't want sho Heyo Tani, the face

354
00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:07,840
Speaker 1: of our league having his hands up in this.

355
00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:21,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a tricky situation. It is, and it's it's messy, yep,

356
00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:28,520
Speaker 3: and is gross and uh it's gonna.

357
00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:28,680
Speaker 8: Be uh.

358
00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:34,280
Speaker 3: It's I mean you want to talk about our eyes

359
00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:36,880
Speaker 3: will be on whenever that press conference is tomorrow.

360
00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:42,000
Speaker 2: I mean, I'm with you.

361
00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:44,440
Speaker 1: The curiosity of what he's going to say is at

362
00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:46,840
Speaker 1: such a high level because I don't know, you're sort

363
00:20:46,840 --> 00:20:48,320
Speaker 1: of pot committed now.

364
00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:52,040
Speaker 4: And what's the penalty you have to say?

365
00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:55,480
Speaker 2: What your lawyers have gone crazy.

366
00:20:55,160 --> 00:21:01,240
Speaker 1: Saying the last four days, they've launched an investigation, they're

367
00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:04,600
Speaker 1: pressing charges if you will, or however that works at

368
00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:06,600
Speaker 1: the federal level, you're moving forward with this.

369
00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:10,159
Speaker 2: If you show, hey, you got to you gotta go

370
00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:11,000
Speaker 2: with that, right.

371
00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:16,320
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't think they were cruising around with

372
00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:22,680
Speaker 1: that story against his will. I just I don't know

373
00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:26,680
Speaker 1: this one. It to me feels like such a dead

374
00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:30,919
Speaker 1: end because, A, the story doesn't sound believable. But be smart,

375
00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:33,160
Speaker 1: people would not make up a story about this because

376
00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:36,480
Speaker 1: if you do, you're gonna get caught. Like, the federal

377
00:21:36,480 --> 00:21:42,359
Speaker 1: investigators have access to everything, text messages, the phone calls,

378
00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:44,960
Speaker 1: the vocal recordings, when you approve a wire transfer, they've

379
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:49,440
Speaker 1: got it all. So if you if you're lying right now,

380
00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:50,639
Speaker 1: you're gonna get caught.

381
00:21:53,440 --> 00:22:05,000
Speaker 4: H Yeah, that's a that's tough. That's tough, man.

382
00:22:06,680 --> 00:22:08,240
Speaker 2: It's a really crazy story.

383
00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:15,960
Speaker 1: And uh yeah, I do feel like it's buckle up,

384
00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:16,840
Speaker 1: don't you.

385
00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:19,200
Speaker 4: Don't you think this is gonna take a while. Yeah,

386
00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:23,640
Speaker 4: I'm sure it will. I'm sure it will. Absolutely.

387
00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:29,720
Speaker 1: My sense is that it will still be going when

388
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:32,360
Speaker 1: Steve de Seger is done with whatever it is that he.

389
00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:33,560
Speaker 2: Wants to say right now.

390
00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:38,919
Speaker 1: And you know, Steve was going to get in and

391
00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:41,199
Speaker 1: he's going to get out like he always does. And

392
00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:43,080
Speaker 1: that's my prediction. I think that the show hey thing

393
00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:44,520
Speaker 1: will not be solved by that time.

394
00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:46,120
Speaker 9: I'll go along with that prediction.

395
00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:48,120
Speaker 2: Okay, all right, Hi Steve, Hello.

396
00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:50,800
Speaker 9: And that may not be the boldest prediction of the evening,

397
00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:51,440
Speaker 9: but let's.

398
00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:56,040
Speaker 2: Go ahead into it. Yeah, I'm I'm tip tiptoeing in.

399
00:22:56,960 --> 00:22:59,840
Speaker 9: Uh can I say as we talk March madness? And yes,

400
00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:04,080
Speaker 9: gonna lead with that. The Triangle region of North Carolina

401
00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:06,760
Speaker 9: is home to Duke, North Carolina, and c State. They're

402
00:23:06,760 --> 00:23:10,200
Speaker 9: all still alive. All three schools are reaching the Sweet

403
00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:13,320
Speaker 9: sixteen together, you could say, for the first time in

404
00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:16,640
Speaker 9: almost a decade. North Carolina tar Heels are the one

405
00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:19,560
Speaker 9: seed in the West. They're gonna be having a Sweet

406
00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:23,800

Speaker 9: just a moment, But Duke was a winner over James Madison.

410
00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:38,280
Speaker 9: In fact, the three pointers were just raining down. The

411
00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:40,760
Speaker 9: winner of Houston, Texas A and m tonight will go

417

Speaker 9: State against Yale, and that was the last you'll hear

420
00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:11,719

Speaker 9: it was such a blowout for Purdue today, fifteen players

429

463
00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:32,520
Speaker 1: I told you, I'm sitting here watching this Warriors te

464
00:26:32,600 --> 00:26:37,520
Speaker 1: Wolves game and a question just just bounced, and it

465
00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:41,920
Speaker 1: also brings into play. What happened in that Kansas Samford game?

466
00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:45,760
Speaker 1: Was that either I think that was on Thursday, Thursday

467

Speaker 1: or Friday night, I can't remember which, but the play

468
00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:53,000
Speaker 1: where Sanford was down one beautiful block from behind on

469
00:26:53,040 --> 00:26:55,439
Speaker 1: what was going to be a breakaway dunk, but it

470
00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:58,679
Speaker 1: gets turned into a foul and therefore Sanford doesn't have

471
00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:02,160
Speaker 1: the opportunity with sixteen seconds to go down by one

472
00:27:02,520 --> 00:27:04,520
Speaker 1: to see if they can win that game. Instead, they

473
00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:07,560
Speaker 1: fall down and end up losing a close one, and

474
00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:11,520
Speaker 1: the internet goes wild. I'm also watching this is just

475
00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:14,520
Speaker 1: a random Sunday night NBA game, and it's the third

476
00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:18,879
Speaker 1: quarter where a ball was fumbled out of bounds clearly

477
00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:24,200
Speaker 1: by one team, yet the referees missed it and gave

478
00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:27,560
Speaker 1: them the ball, and some of the players in this

479
00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:30,000
Speaker 1: case on the Warriors looked to the sideline and made

480
00:27:30,040 --> 00:27:33,000
Speaker 1: the review signal, which the Warriors chose not to do,

481
00:27:33,080 --> 00:27:36,520
Speaker 1: And I know why because it's the third quarter and

482
00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:39,959
Speaker 1: They're like, possession of the ball underneath the other team's

483
00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:43,040
Speaker 1: hoop in the third quarter is not worth fighting for.

484
00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:46,560
Speaker 2: It's not worth our challenge.

485
00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:52,520
Speaker 1: What do you believe about the current basketball review rules

486
00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:54,600
Speaker 1: and where should it go next?

487
00:27:57,920 --> 00:27:59,800
Speaker 3: What I don't want to do is I don't want

488
00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:01,959
Speaker 3: to keep slow. I don't want the game to be

489
00:28:02,280 --> 00:28:02,920
Speaker 3: slowed down.

490
00:28:03,160 --> 00:28:03,920
Speaker 4: So they took.

491
00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:07,080
Speaker 3: The They took the take foul out of the game,

492
00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:08,840
Speaker 3: which I thought they needed to do because it was

493
00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:14,960
Speaker 3: killing what made the NBA great, the fast break. So

494
00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:20,840
Speaker 3: this year it's a take foul, right, free throws in

495
00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:29,119
Speaker 3: the ball, and so the review system.

496
00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:30,760
Speaker 4: Look, I love it and hate it.

497
00:28:32,040 --> 00:28:37,760
Speaker 3: I don't like the stoppage mid game, first quarter, you know,

498
00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:40,840
Speaker 3: third quarter, if they were to.

499
00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:43,360
Speaker 4: Limit it to.

500
00:28:45,920 --> 00:28:51,840
Speaker 3: You know, second quarter, last five minutes, fourth quarter, last

501
00:28:51,880 --> 00:29:01,160
Speaker 3: five minutes, okay, similar to ball has in terms of

502
00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:06,720
Speaker 3: after two minutes. It's up to the people upstairs. And

503
00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:09,200
Speaker 3: of course coaches have the red flag they can challenge

504
00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:12,800
Speaker 3: at any moment. But I don't want to slow football

505
00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:15,200
Speaker 3: already stops right after a play.

506
00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:17,400
Speaker 4: You huddle up, you do this, you do that.

507
00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:21,080
Speaker 3: Basketball is supposed to be fast paced, up and down,

508
00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:24,920
Speaker 3: up and down, up and down. After every call. You

509
00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:29,120
Speaker 3: have players now making the review sip symbol, which I hate.

510
00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:32,520
Speaker 3: After every call. I mean, I'm talking about the first

511
00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:38,040
Speaker 3: minute into the game, the first minute, end of the game.

512
00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:43,760
Speaker 3: It's they're they're, they're, they're doing the review first minute.

513
00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:48,080
Speaker 3: I'm like, really, no, bro, let's just play on. What

514
00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:49,000
Speaker 3: are you talking about.

515
00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:52,640
Speaker 1: That's a terrible strategy to review anything in the first minute.

516
00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:54,880
Speaker 3: I mean, so it's out of it's out of control,

517
00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:58,239
Speaker 3: it's getting out of hand. So I think there need

518
00:29:58,280 --> 00:30:00,480
Speaker 3: to be some some parameters put on there. I like

519
00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:03,840
Speaker 3: it when it matters when it comes down to it,

520
00:30:03,880 --> 00:30:09,600
Speaker 3: like if a player has as in Jeopardy of fouling out,

521
00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:11,480
Speaker 3: or he gets his fourth or fifth foul or something

522
00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:11,720
Speaker 3: like that.

523
00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:13,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, go ahead and review it if.

524
00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:17,120
Speaker 3: It's compelling enough, but don't slow the game down anymore

525
00:30:17,520 --> 00:30:19,120
Speaker 3: than you know already is.

526
00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:22,560
Speaker 1: I'm just so torn about this because I understand a

527
00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:26,440
Speaker 1: lot of what you're saying, and I get that. For example,

528
00:30:26,520 --> 00:30:29,440
Speaker 1: let's go back to that Sanford in Kansas game. You

529
00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:33,040
Speaker 1: get a block from behind, A fowl is called at

530
00:30:33,080 --> 00:30:36,120
Speaker 1: full speed, probably look like a foul because the kid

531
00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:39,480
Speaker 1: not only went flying toward the rim, he grabbed the rim,

532
00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:41,600
Speaker 1: hung onto the rim, and then ended up on his back.

533
00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:44,880
Speaker 1: It was very violent in play, and it looked like

534
00:30:44,960 --> 00:30:47,600
Speaker 1: he had gotten hammered. As it turns out, he was

535
00:30:47,680 --> 00:30:51,400
Speaker 1: never touched. So I get that why the ref called

536
00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:53,080
Speaker 1: what he called in real time.

537
00:30:53,760 --> 00:30:54,920
Speaker 2: But let's reverse it.

538
00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:59,200
Speaker 1: Let's pretend that he didn't call the foul, but it

539
00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:04,080
Speaker 1: was now what you didn't call the foul. The ball

540
00:31:04,120 --> 00:31:07,120
Speaker 1: is still in play, Sanford grabs the ball, goes down,

541
00:31:08,040 --> 00:31:10,960
Speaker 1: clock is ticking down five four, Pass out to the

542
00:31:10,960 --> 00:31:15,520
Speaker 1: wing three two to one. Let fly ham swish, Sanford wins.

543
00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:20,840
Speaker 1: Everybody pile on a mid court time out. We need

544
00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:27,120
Speaker 1: to review the non call with fifteen seconds left to go.

545
00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:32,520
Speaker 1: Oh never mind, turns out it was a foul. Kansas

546
00:31:32,640 --> 00:31:35,320
Speaker 1: is up one shooting two fifteen seconds left to go.

547
00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:39,040
Speaker 2: We don't want that. I don't even know if.

548
00:31:38,960 --> 00:31:42,680
Speaker 1: You can do that. That doesn't make any sense. So

549
00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:46,120
Speaker 1: I'm really torn because the other side to it is

550
00:31:46,440 --> 00:31:49,120
Speaker 1: we've got too much technology and too much review in

551
00:31:49,160 --> 00:31:54,720
Speaker 1: sports to have plays like that be officiated incorrectly like

552
00:31:54,800 --> 00:31:56,640
Speaker 1: they were last week.

553
00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:01,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, that I understand that.

554
00:32:01,320 --> 00:32:05,280
Speaker 3: Like it's uh, you know, that's the old adage of

555
00:32:05,520 --> 00:32:08,520
Speaker 3: you know, human error. How much of it do you

556
00:32:08,560 --> 00:32:13,880
Speaker 3: want in the game when it comes to officiating. I

557
00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:17,240
Speaker 3: mean that's across all sports, right, It's why can't you

558
00:32:17,280 --> 00:32:19,680
Speaker 3: put a censor in the ball and when they reach

559
00:32:19,760 --> 00:32:24,600
Speaker 3: it across the goal line, you know, a buzzer goes off? Right,

560
00:32:24,680 --> 00:32:27,440
Speaker 3: Why can't you have an automated strike zone?

561
00:32:28,040 --> 00:32:31,520
Speaker 1: Like it's well, they're going to you know, it's gonna happen.

562
00:32:33,600 --> 00:32:37,680
Speaker 1: That's gonna happen. And uh, and I bet we'll hate it.

563
00:32:38,040 --> 00:32:38,920
Speaker 4: I'm sure we will.

564
00:32:39,160 --> 00:32:42,040
Speaker 1: We're gonna hate it. Yes, And then we'll get used

565
00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:47,640
Speaker 1: to it and and complain about that. I remember when,

566
00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:53,680
Speaker 1: remember when there were people playing sports. Remember that, Oh god,

567
00:32:54,040 --> 00:32:58,560
Speaker 1: when I was growing up. Now the whole thing's ai.

568
00:32:58,680 --> 00:33:04,080
Speaker 1: It's way better. Yeah, we can keep going on that.

569
00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:06,720
Speaker 1: I also, by the way, while we're talking officiating, there's

570
00:33:06,760 --> 00:33:09,280
Speaker 1: a there's a bunch of stuff on the table for

571
00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:12,000
Speaker 1: the NFL Competition Committee. Some of it I think could

572
00:33:12,040 --> 00:33:14,280
Speaker 1: really be game changer, good or bad. I don't know.

573
00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:17,400
Speaker 1: I want to ask you. We'll do that coming up next.

574
00:33:17,760 --> 00:33:20,440
Speaker 1: And then that press conference with Kim Mulkey. Let's go

575
00:33:21,360 --> 00:33:22,840
Speaker 1: into that at the top of the hour with I

576
00:33:22,920 --> 00:33:27,000
Speaker 1: from Salama, Mark Willard, Fox Sports Radio. All right, these

577
00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:29,680
Speaker 1: are the tirag dot com studios with E from Salama

578
00:33:29,720 --> 00:33:31,760
Speaker 1: Mark Willard. Top of the hour, we'll let you hear

579
00:33:31,840 --> 00:33:35,680
Speaker 1: some of the sound from Kim Maulke's press conference. LSU

580
00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:40,680
Speaker 1: head women's coach and they got their victory today. They're

581
00:33:40,680 --> 00:33:43,920
Speaker 1: on into the sweet sixteen. But of course nobody's talking

582
00:33:43,960 --> 00:33:47,480
Speaker 1: about that. Everyone's talking about her her press conference, which

583
00:33:47,560 --> 00:33:51,240
Speaker 1: was interesting to me on many levels because she wanted

584
00:33:51,280 --> 00:33:54,680
Speaker 1: everyone to focus on the basketball team. And I'm thinking,

585
00:33:54,680 --> 00:33:56,840
Speaker 1: if you want everyone to focus on the basketball team.

586
00:33:56,880 --> 00:33:59,360
Speaker 1: You probably shouldn't have this press conference right now, but

587
00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:04,000
Speaker 1: she did, and so we'll get into that. Do you

588
00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:05,480
Speaker 1: know what a hip drop tackle is?

589
00:34:06,680 --> 00:34:06,720
Speaker 4: No?

590
00:34:06,920 --> 00:34:08,920
Speaker 2: What is that? You don't know? No?

591
00:34:08,960 --> 00:34:09,040
Speaker 1: I do.

592
00:34:09,640 --> 00:34:10,120
Speaker 2: That's funny.

593
00:34:10,120 --> 00:34:11,719
Speaker 1: I mean as a football player, I was going to

594
00:34:11,760 --> 00:34:15,799
Speaker 1: have you kind of describe it to the audience. You

595
00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:18,680
Speaker 1: remember the play in the playoffs. This is not this

596
00:34:18,840 --> 00:34:22,040
Speaker 1: most recent playoffs, but the year before forty nine Ers

597
00:34:22,080 --> 00:34:25,719
Speaker 1: and Cowboys when Tony Pollard got hurt, yes, and got

598
00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:28,799
Speaker 1: knocked out. So, in other words, it happens a lot

599
00:34:28,880 --> 00:34:32,920
Speaker 1: with linebackers. I would say linebackers are facing a somebody

600
00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:36,560
Speaker 1: with the ball in the open field and they grab

601
00:34:36,680 --> 00:34:40,359
Speaker 1: them around the mid section, which is like, you know,

602
00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:43,279
Speaker 1: the smart place to tackle now, because you can't go

603
00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:45,839
Speaker 1: high you'll get flagged and if you go low, you're

604
00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:48,719
Speaker 1: going to get a knee in the face and probably

605
00:34:48,760 --> 00:34:50,640
Speaker 1: not tackle the guy unless you're just able to kind

606
00:34:50,640 --> 00:34:51,399
Speaker 1: of trip him up.

607
00:34:52,560 --> 00:34:56,480
Speaker 2: But it's a grab around the hip and then you use.

608
00:34:56,400 --> 00:34:58,840
Speaker 1: Your body weight to bring him down by kind of

609
00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:05,279
Speaker 1: sliding your body and pulling them down with you.

610
00:35:06,320 --> 00:35:08,440
Speaker 2: And that's called hip drop.

611
00:35:08,520 --> 00:35:11,200
Speaker 1: You get your hands on their hips, bring your body

612
00:35:11,239 --> 00:35:15,600
Speaker 1: weight to the ground, usually behind the ball carrier and

613
00:35:16,120 --> 00:35:18,920
Speaker 1: pull them down, and it seems to be leading to

614
00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:23,680
Speaker 1: a lot of injuries for the ball carriers. So competition

615
00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:25,960
Speaker 1: Committee has got this in front of them right now,

616
00:35:26,760 --> 00:35:31,399
Speaker 1: and a number of defensive players past and present are

617
00:35:31,520 --> 00:35:37,160
Speaker 1: wondering how exactly are we supposed to get people on

618
00:35:37,200 --> 00:35:39,600
Speaker 1: the ground going forward?

619
00:35:39,800 --> 00:35:41,279
Speaker 2: If you take this away.

620
00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:44,520
Speaker 4: Too flag football here we come.

621
00:35:47,320 --> 00:35:48,759
Speaker 1: I mean, what do you think? And I mean that's

622
00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:50,200
Speaker 1: coming from an offensive lineman.

623
00:35:51,760 --> 00:36:00,400
Speaker 3: There's a certain physicality to playing football. It is you

624
00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:07,480
Speaker 3: sign up for the physicality of playing football.

625
00:36:05,719 --> 00:36:08,960
Speaker 4: And so all of the.

626
00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:13,920
Speaker 3: Things that they're doing to take the physicality away from it,

627
00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:18,840
Speaker 3: and some of them are are genuinely for.

628
00:36:20,320 --> 00:36:25,719
Speaker 4: The health and safety of players. And so.

629
00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:32,319
Speaker 3: The difference is when you tell a player you can't

630
00:36:32,360 --> 00:36:34,839
Speaker 3: go high, you can't go low, you have to go

631
00:36:34,880 --> 00:36:36,719
Speaker 3: to the mid section. But you only can go to

632
00:36:36,719 --> 00:36:41,760
Speaker 3: the mid section in this particular way. You're now making

633
00:36:41,800 --> 00:36:49,800
Speaker 3: it almost impossible to have these high level athletes perform

634
00:36:49,920 --> 00:36:56,680
Speaker 3: their job in a way that's it's conducive to them

635
00:36:56,760 --> 00:37:00,680
Speaker 3: performing their job at a high level and not themselves

636
00:37:00,800 --> 00:37:08,359
Speaker 3: hurting getting getting hurt. Now anytime you're tackling someone, there's

637
00:37:08,360 --> 00:37:11,200
Speaker 3: a risk of injury to yourself or to the player

638
00:37:11,239 --> 00:37:17,680
Speaker 3: you're tackling. We've cleaned the game up immensely, taking the

639
00:37:17,760 --> 00:37:19,880
Speaker 3: late hits and the cheap shots out of the game.

640
00:37:21,680 --> 00:37:25,920
Speaker 3: But when you start taking out, you know, regular tackles

641
00:37:27,120 --> 00:37:33,440
Speaker 3: and giving them special names like hip drop, then you're

642
00:37:33,480 --> 00:37:38,560
Speaker 3: you're taking away a person's ability to to do their

643
00:37:38,640 --> 00:37:42,120
Speaker 3: job at a at a high level. And that's that's

644
00:37:42,160 --> 00:37:47,680
Speaker 3: the look. I'm all for player safety, trust me, but

645
00:37:47,800 --> 00:37:53,680
Speaker 3: you gotta you gotta keep your mind on and your

646
00:37:53,719 --> 00:37:58,080
Speaker 3: eyes on on the bigger picture. It is football. It's

647
00:37:58,120 --> 00:38:02,000
Speaker 3: a it's a it's a contact sport. There will be contact,

648
00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:09,520
Speaker 3: it will be violent, and it's going to hurt. That's

649
00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:13,040
Speaker 3: that's what it boils down to. There you go, I mean,

650
00:38:13,080 --> 00:38:15,440
Speaker 3: I do wonder you know, like I get it.

651
00:38:15,800 --> 00:38:19,680
Speaker 1: Some of this goes into sort of like the look

652
00:38:19,680 --> 00:38:22,040
Speaker 1: of it, if you will. I mean, we all understand

653
00:38:22,080 --> 00:38:25,000
Speaker 1: why they started doing what they were doing with regard

654
00:38:25,040 --> 00:38:25,960
Speaker 1: to concussions.

655
00:38:27,120 --> 00:38:32,160
Speaker 2: That became a very emotional issue for the.

656
00:38:32,080 --> 00:38:36,880
Speaker 1: Players, the league, its viewers, and there was the thought

657
00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:40,440
Speaker 1: that there was new information. Right nobody had heard of

658
00:38:40,520 --> 00:38:44,480
Speaker 1: CTE ten to fifteen years ago, at least I hadn't.

659
00:38:44,480 --> 00:38:45,920
Speaker 2: I don't know if you had. Had you heard of

660
00:38:45,960 --> 00:38:46,720
Speaker 2: that when you played?

661
00:38:46,920 --> 00:38:47,640
Speaker 4: No, I hadn't.

662
00:38:48,200 --> 00:38:52,200
Speaker 2: Okay, So that I get.

663
00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:55,520
Speaker 1: That when you're like, look, we're not We're not going

664
00:38:55,640 --> 00:39:00,680
Speaker 1: crown to crown anymore because this has been shown to

665
00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:04,960
Speaker 1: be just a wee bit negative for these players when

666
00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:08,400
Speaker 1: they turn fifty or sixty years old or forty for

667
00:39:08,480 --> 00:39:14,399
Speaker 1: that matter, or whatever. So that I get. But this one,

668
00:39:14,480 --> 00:39:16,960
Speaker 1: to me, I think, you know, I agree with you.

669
00:39:17,920 --> 00:39:23,120
Speaker 1: It feels like you're your legislating out injury.

670
00:39:24,280 --> 00:39:29,440
Speaker 2: Well, good luck, you can't. You just can't do that.

671
00:39:29,560 --> 00:39:32,000
Speaker 1: And by the way, NFL owners, if you'd like to

672
00:39:32,080 --> 00:39:34,799
Speaker 1: legislate out injury, how about if we start with the

673
00:39:34,840 --> 00:39:36,720
Speaker 1: MetLife turf right.

674
00:39:37,640 --> 00:39:38,720
Speaker 2: Let's start there.

675
00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:46,960
Speaker 3: Let's put grass fills in every single arena, right, and

676
00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:50,040
Speaker 3: then talk to us about how serious you are about

677
00:39:50,080 --> 00:39:50,840
Speaker 3: player safety.

678
00:39:52,160 --> 00:39:57,440
Speaker 4: Let's start there. Let's start there. Let's not pick and choose.

679
00:39:57,520 --> 00:40:00,160
Speaker 4: Let's not pick and choose. What'd be more call it's

680
00:40:00,280 --> 00:40:04,440
Speaker 4: effective for you. Let's put grass in every indoor outdoor.

681
00:40:04,480 --> 00:40:08,720
Speaker 4: It doesn't matter. Grass. Yeah, some costs a lot of money.

682
00:40:10,040 --> 00:40:12,239
Speaker 1: And you all know, I mean every football player I've

683
00:40:12,280 --> 00:40:14,640
Speaker 1: ever talked to the end of an NFL season, the

684
00:40:14,680 --> 00:40:17,560
Speaker 1: injury injury rate is what percent?

685
00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:22,359
Speaker 2: One hundred, one hundred every time.

686
00:40:23,080 --> 00:40:25,200
Speaker 1: All Right, we'll get to the Kim Mulki stuff coming

687
00:40:25,320 --> 00:40:27,160
Speaker 1: up next right here on Fox Sports Radio.

688
00:40:30,560 --> 00:40:32,280
Speaker 2: Well, madness is the word.

689
00:40:32,320 --> 00:40:34,360
Speaker 1: It's the word of the week, although it means a

690
00:40:34,360 --> 00:40:37,600
Speaker 1: little bit more than just your brackets. We're broadcasting live

691
00:40:37,640 --> 00:40:40,600
Speaker 1: from the tie rag dot com studios. Ty rag dot

Speaker 2: Ty rag dot com the way tire buying should be.

696
00:40:52,680 --> 00:40:57,320

697
00:40:57,760 --> 00:41:00,239
Speaker 1: there's this and we're gonna play your good hunk of

698
00:41:00,280 --> 00:41:03,440
Speaker 1: it here in just a second. But the head women's

699
00:41:03,680 --> 00:41:07,880
Speaker 1: basketball coach at LSU, Kim Malke, has well, she's been

700
00:41:07,920 --> 00:41:12,240
Speaker 1: doing it for quite some time, and apparently this story

701
00:41:12,680 --> 00:41:15,640
Speaker 1: that she went on and on about yesterday has been

702
00:41:15,680 --> 00:41:17,880
Speaker 1: building for quite some time as well.

703
00:41:17,960 --> 00:41:20,279
Speaker 2: The odd thing is is, I bet the average.

704
00:41:19,960 --> 00:41:24,160
Speaker 1: American doesn't even necessarily know what this whole thing is about.

705
00:41:24,200 --> 00:41:25,920
Speaker 2: We just know that she's mad about it.

706
00:41:26,320 --> 00:41:30,520
Speaker 1: We know two things The Washington Post is supposedly about

707
00:41:30,560 --> 00:41:34,279
Speaker 1: to launch a story about Kim, and we know that

708
00:41:34,360 --> 00:41:37,160
Speaker 1: she doesn't like it. But I bet most people Ephraim

709
00:41:37,360 --> 00:41:41,240
Speaker 1: don't even know what the story's about. I'm pretty sure

710
00:41:41,600 --> 00:41:43,919
Speaker 1: it's about her treatment of players. A lot of ex

711
00:41:43,960 --> 00:41:48,160
Speaker 1: players have apparently or reportedly weighed in on this, and

712
00:41:48,880 --> 00:41:52,640
Speaker 1: so we'll see where it goes. But before we play

713
00:41:52,800 --> 00:41:54,640
Speaker 1: what she has to say, I'd love to hear what

714
00:41:54,719 --> 00:41:58,120
Speaker 1: you have to say. What was your initial reaction to

715
00:41:58,200 --> 00:42:00,560
Speaker 1: this thing that got so much buzz over the weekend.

716
00:42:03,080 --> 00:42:07,520
Speaker 3: It's hard to want to just focus on the biggest

717
00:42:07,520 --> 00:42:12,080
Speaker 3: time of year for college athletes, basketball players, men and

718
00:42:12,120 --> 00:42:17,480
Speaker 3: women when you got all of this bubbling and brewing.

719
00:42:19,040 --> 00:42:22,920
Speaker 3: And there's no secret LSU hasn't played well in this tournament.

720
00:42:23,200 --> 00:42:25,640
Speaker 3: They've won their first two games, but they were down

721
00:42:25,760 --> 00:42:31,560
Speaker 3: in the fourth quarter or in the third quarter by Tennessee.

722
00:42:32,080 --> 00:42:38,239
Speaker 3: It was a middle Tennessee who came to play, and

723
00:42:38,520 --> 00:42:41,480
Speaker 3: they didn't play well their first game either. So this

724
00:42:41,560 --> 00:42:47,440
Speaker 3: is obviously looming heavily in the locker room, and it

725
00:42:48,480 --> 00:42:51,560
Speaker 3: should be just about the games and about what's going on.

726
00:42:52,239 --> 00:42:55,160
Speaker 3: But when there's problems at the top, it trickles down

727
00:42:55,520 --> 00:42:57,440
Speaker 3: into the locker room. Now, they got it together in

728
00:42:57,560 --> 00:42:59,920
Speaker 3: the second half, really in the fourth quarter, and Angela

729
00:43:00,560 --> 00:43:04,720
Speaker 3: turned it on and they got that win. But Middle

730
00:43:04,760 --> 00:43:08,600
Speaker 3: Tennessee was coming to play today, and it's just a

731
00:43:08,600 --> 00:43:13,960
Speaker 3: reflection of they're in a brutal bracket and if they're

732
00:43:14,000 --> 00:43:17,920
Speaker 3: not clicking on all cylinders, they will not be repeating.

733
00:43:18,040 --> 00:43:22,080
Speaker 3: And you know, representing LSU in the National championship game.

734
00:43:22,320 --> 00:43:25,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, you'll see the score and think, gosh, what's Ephraim

735
00:43:26,040 --> 00:43:30,120
Speaker 1: talking about? Because they won this game by almost thirty points.

736
00:43:30,120 --> 00:43:34,439
Speaker 1: They won by twenty seven, but they outscored them by

737
00:43:34,480 --> 00:43:38,319
Speaker 1: seventeen in the fourth quarter and by fourteen in the

738
00:43:38,400 --> 00:43:41,640
Speaker 1: third quarter. So yeah, they were trailing at halftime, as

739
00:43:41,640 --> 00:43:44,439
Speaker 1: you're saying, as a number three seed and a team

740
00:43:44,480 --> 00:43:47,160
Speaker 1: that's incredibly talked about and has one of the top

741
00:43:47,200 --> 00:43:49,640
Speaker 1: players in the country, as you mentioned, and.

742
00:43:50,200 --> 00:43:52,520
Speaker 4: Trailing is will you get it the ebbs and fold.

743
00:43:52,560 --> 00:43:55,240
Speaker 4: But they just didn't look good, correct.

744
00:43:55,480 --> 00:43:58,080
Speaker 3: So it's one thing if the game is up and down,

745
00:43:58,120 --> 00:44:00,719
Speaker 3: they're scoring, you're scoring, yati. They just didn't look good.

746
00:44:00,760 --> 00:44:04,759
Speaker 4: A lot of easy miss baskets underneath a lot of turnovers,

747
00:44:05,120 --> 00:44:08,280
Speaker 4: unforced eras those type of things that's not championship basketball.

748
00:44:08,680 --> 00:44:12,880
Speaker 1: Definitely not, definitely not, and so this is in particular

749
00:44:13,320 --> 00:44:16,160
Speaker 1: what is hanging over their heads. Take a listen to

750
00:44:16,320 --> 00:44:19,320
Speaker 1: this prepared and lengthy statement. This is just a portion

751
00:44:19,440 --> 00:44:21,760
Speaker 1: of it from head coach Kim Bulky yesterday.

752
00:44:21,920 --> 00:44:25,279
Speaker 10: This was a ridiculous deadline that LSU and I could

753
00:44:25,320 --> 00:44:28,960
Speaker 10: not possibly meet, and the reporter knew it. It was

754
00:44:29,080 --> 00:44:32,839
Speaker 10: just an attempt to prevent me from commenting and an

755
00:44:32,920 --> 00:44:37,440
Speaker 10: attempt to distract us from this tournament. It ain't gonna work, buddy.

756
00:44:37,719 --> 00:44:42,480
Speaker 10: This is exactly why people don't trust journalists and the

757
00:44:42,600 --> 00:44:47,760
Speaker 10: media anymore. It's these kinds of sleazy tactics and hatchet

758
00:44:47,840 --> 00:44:52,000
Speaker 10: jobs that people are just tired of. I'm fed up

759
00:44:52,320 --> 00:44:56,120
Speaker 10: and I'm not gonna let the Washington Post attack this university,

760
00:44:56,239 --> 00:44:57,360
Speaker 10: this awesome.

761
00:44:57,000 --> 00:44:58,040
Speaker 2: Team of young women.

762
00:44:58,120 --> 00:45:01,880
Speaker 10: I have or me without fight. I've heard the best

763
00:45:02,160 --> 00:45:05,880
Speaker 10: defamation look for in the country, and I will sue

764
00:45:05,880 --> 00:45:09,640
Speaker 10: the Washington Post if they publish a false story about me.

765
00:45:10,040 --> 00:45:12,920
Speaker 10: Not many people are in a position to hold these

766
00:45:13,000 --> 00:45:14,480
Speaker 10: kind of journalists accountable.

767
00:45:17,239 --> 00:45:24,279
Speaker 1: He from what are your thoughts on this strategic attempt

768
00:45:24,960 --> 00:45:26,640
Speaker 1: by Kim Molkie and what she had.

769
00:45:26,520 --> 00:45:28,080
Speaker 4: To be trying to get out in front of soth.

770
00:45:28,040 --> 00:45:34,680
Speaker 2: Isn't she Oh my dog? Listen this one.

771
00:45:35,040 --> 00:45:38,880
Speaker 1: And I don't follow LSU women's basketball very much. I

772
00:45:38,880 --> 00:45:41,279
Speaker 1: know all about Angel Reese. I know who they are,

773
00:45:41,360 --> 00:45:44,359
Speaker 1: who they've been, but this is not something that you know.

774
00:45:44,560 --> 00:45:47,680
Speaker 1: This is the first I had heard of. It was

775
00:45:47,719 --> 00:45:50,719
Speaker 1: two nights ago when a report came out. I was like, Oh,

776
00:45:50,880 --> 00:45:54,520
Speaker 1: Washington Post got something on Kim Molkie at Forthcoming.

777
00:45:55,560 --> 00:45:58,000
Speaker 2: And then twenty four hours later she's having this press.

778
00:45:57,760 --> 00:46:02,359
Speaker 1: Conference and I had all hinds of bells go off

779
00:46:03,040 --> 00:46:07,520
Speaker 1: in listening to this, all kinds of bells going on.

780
00:46:08,200 --> 00:46:12,279
Speaker 1: First of all, let's go point by point. Here's the

781
00:46:12,280 --> 00:46:14,160
Speaker 1: first one, and I wonder what you think about it.

782
00:46:14,960 --> 00:46:18,480
Speaker 1: The first point that I have is that soundclip you

783
00:46:18,640 --> 00:46:22,640
Speaker 1: just heard. You hear her saying this reporter built a

784
00:46:22,680 --> 00:46:25,440
Speaker 1: deadline that there's no way we could keep. In other words,

785
00:46:25,480 --> 00:46:28,960
Speaker 1: she's saying, he had a list of questions and he

786
00:46:29,080 --> 00:46:32,120
Speaker 1: furnished LSU with these questions on the day that we're

787
00:46:32,160 --> 00:46:35,720
Speaker 1: heading to the tournament, a couple of days before our game.

788
00:46:36,840 --> 00:46:39,160
Speaker 1: So it's a deadline. There's no way we could keep.

789
00:46:40,040 --> 00:46:43,799
Speaker 1: And he did it on purpose. Her previous sentence was,

790
00:46:44,200 --> 00:46:48,760
Speaker 1: this guy's been after me for two years? Did everyone

791
00:46:48,840 --> 00:46:54,200
Speaker 1: else catch the irony in everything that she's saying there?

792
00:46:56,120 --> 00:47:01,959
Speaker 1: He's been asking for an interview for two years, yet

793
00:47:02,000 --> 00:47:06,120
Speaker 1: she decided to say, Oh, now, you're creating a deadline

794
00:47:07,600 --> 00:47:10,280
Speaker 1: that we can't keep because the tournament starting.

795
00:47:11,400 --> 00:47:14,040
Speaker 2: Well, No, Kim, he's been asking you for an interview

796
00:47:14,080 --> 00:47:15,600
Speaker 2: for two years.

797
00:47:16,760 --> 00:47:19,640
Speaker 1: And he's finally giving you a deadline because he's gonna

798
00:47:19,640 --> 00:47:25,200
Speaker 1: publish the story. Why now, because it's March madness. You're

799
00:47:25,239 --> 00:47:28,480
Speaker 1: not gonna do a college basketball story and release it

800
00:47:28,520 --> 00:47:34,319
Speaker 1: in July. You're gonna do it now. So just that

801
00:47:34,560 --> 00:47:38,680
Speaker 1: part of it right there. I was already like, what

802
00:47:38,840 --> 00:47:43,120
Speaker 1: is this woman saying right now? And I'll tell you

803
00:47:43,200 --> 00:47:45,600
Speaker 1: another thing. If this article and look, I don't know

804
00:47:45,640 --> 00:47:49,520
Speaker 1: what the article says. Obviously neither do I. She does

805
00:47:49,680 --> 00:47:57,160
Speaker 1: because she's been asked to comment on parts of the article. Right, So,

806
00:47:57,360 --> 00:48:04,000
Speaker 1: if there are former players who are speaking out in

807
00:48:04,040 --> 00:48:13,880
Speaker 1: this article, then who's the defamation against? Who's the defamation against?

808
00:48:14,400 --> 00:48:17,480
Speaker 3: Good question. I mean, I've had coaches. If you come

809
00:48:17,560 --> 00:48:19,799
Speaker 3: to me and you asked me some things, I would

810
00:48:19,800 --> 00:48:24,120
Speaker 3: give you my honest opinion of situations that happened.

811
00:48:26,040 --> 00:48:29,600
Speaker 4: I wouldn't lie. I would just tell you what happened.

812
00:48:31,719 --> 00:48:34,480
Speaker 4: All coaches. I mean, hey, look, you know.

813
00:48:36,760 --> 00:48:45,800
Speaker 3: So if their sources have been cited former players, then.

814
00:48:47,560 --> 00:48:49,239
Speaker 2: Good luck, good luck.

815
00:48:49,320 --> 00:48:52,440
Speaker 1: And oh, by the way, I'll use that same phrase

816
00:48:52,600 --> 00:48:56,280
Speaker 1: for those of you who don't know the defamation laws

817
00:48:56,320 --> 00:49:00,600
Speaker 1: in this country. As a celebrity, as a public figure,

818
00:49:01,719 --> 00:49:05,640
Speaker 1: good luck, good luck, good good good luck winning that

819
00:49:05,719 --> 00:49:10,160
Speaker 1: in court, because that's like, h what would I like

820
00:49:10,160 --> 00:49:14,279
Speaker 1: in it too? Hitting at hail Mary in football and

821
00:49:14,320 --> 00:49:16,640
Speaker 1: then heading to the basketball court and knocking one down

822
00:49:16,640 --> 00:49:17,719
Speaker 1: from three quarter court.

823
00:49:18,800 --> 00:49:19,960
Speaker 2: That's about how hard.

824
00:49:19,719 --> 00:49:23,880
Speaker 1: It is to prove a defamation lawsuit when you're a

825
00:49:23,920 --> 00:49:28,120
Speaker 1: public figure and what you're essentially publishing, as you said,

826
00:49:28,680 --> 00:49:32,800
Speaker 1: is direct quotes from other human beings about their experience.

827
00:49:32,840 --> 00:49:35,440
Speaker 1: I mean, good luck, good luck.

828
00:49:35,880 --> 00:49:36,200
Speaker 4: Man, this.

829
00:49:39,360 --> 00:49:41,640
Speaker 3: Just that press conference in yourself is gonna make this

830
00:49:41,800 --> 00:49:43,200
Speaker 3: on front page news.

831
00:49:43,200 --> 00:49:43,920
Speaker 2: Well, thank you.

832
00:49:44,160 --> 00:49:46,360
Speaker 1: This is I mean again, there are fifty things to

833
00:49:46,400 --> 00:49:49,200
Speaker 1: say about this, And the next one is, Kim, if

834
00:49:49,239 --> 00:49:51,120
Speaker 1: you really wanted this to go away.

835
00:49:51,080 --> 00:49:55,759
Speaker 2: Boy, you did a bad job. Like this is I can't.

836
00:49:55,480 --> 00:49:58,680
Speaker 4: Tell you fake news?

837
00:50:00,080 --> 00:50:02,760
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, have you heard this press conference before.

838
00:50:04,560 --> 00:50:07,480
Speaker 4: Journalists journalists, they're all liars.

839
00:50:07,560 --> 00:50:10,640
Speaker 1: I'm like, whoa, where where where have I heard this

840
00:50:10,719 --> 00:50:15,680
Speaker 1: press conference before? Every four years as November rolls around, exactly,

841
00:50:16,719 --> 00:50:19,920
Speaker 1: it's like you're you're you're threatening a defamation lawsuit when

842
00:50:19,920 --> 00:50:21,000
Speaker 1: the thing hasn't even.

843
00:50:20,800 --> 00:50:21,879
Speaker 2: Come out yet.

844
00:50:22,880 --> 00:50:25,359
Speaker 1: You're screaming at the media saying that they're doing this

845
00:50:25,400 --> 00:50:28,960
Speaker 1: for clicks. Let's be real, Kim, and I want to

846
00:50:29,000 --> 00:50:32,400
Speaker 1: say this in every way, shape or form without sounding

847
00:50:32,560 --> 00:50:34,640
Speaker 1: any kind of way about anything.

848
00:50:34,320 --> 00:50:35,080
Speaker 2: I really do.

849
00:50:35,800 --> 00:50:40,040
Speaker 1: But in American sports, if you really wanted to clickbait somebody,

850
00:50:40,520 --> 00:50:45,480
Speaker 1: is that where you're gonna go the LSU women's basketball program.

851
00:50:46,040 --> 00:50:48,640
Speaker 2: No, that's driving the clicks.

852
00:50:50,400 --> 00:50:54,400
Speaker 1: I'm like, Kim Woolf, hit the brakes on your opinion

853
00:50:54,400 --> 00:50:58,919
Speaker 1: of yourself and your program. You're you're You're not even

854
00:50:58,920 --> 00:51:01,959
Speaker 1: the women's program we're focused on this year at all.

855
00:51:04,680 --> 00:51:09,480
Speaker 1: So not even the top two. Thank you, thank you,

856
00:51:10,640 --> 00:51:15,279
Speaker 1: so this whole thing. And again, I got no skin

857
00:51:15,320 --> 00:51:18,239
Speaker 1: in this. I have no idea what this story's gonna say.

858
00:51:18,719 --> 00:51:22,840
Speaker 1: I've never covered LSU basketball. There's I got nothing against

859
00:51:22,880 --> 00:51:28,400
Speaker 1: anybody here. I just think the tactics she used are terrible.

860
00:51:28,480 --> 00:51:33,080
Speaker 1: She's gonna get the exact opposite result of what she

861
00:51:33,239 --> 00:51:37,080
Speaker 1: says she wants because now she got no chance in

862
00:51:37,239 --> 00:51:40,000
Speaker 1: hell of proving any sort of a defamation lawsuit. But

863
00:51:40,080 --> 00:51:43,239
Speaker 1: I tell you what, she does have twice as many readers.

864
00:51:45,040 --> 00:51:49,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, they we all need to see what dey is, right.

865
00:51:51,120 --> 00:51:53,719
Speaker 1: I mean, I probably wasn't gonna I wasn't gonna read

866
00:51:53,719 --> 00:51:54,839
Speaker 1: this thing before.

867
00:51:54,760 --> 00:51:58,479
Speaker 2: I am now. I am now.

868
00:51:58,719 --> 00:51:59,760
Speaker 4: I think we all are.

869
00:52:05,440 --> 00:52:09,600
Speaker 1: That that entire press conference, and I like what you

870
00:52:09,719 --> 00:52:12,920
Speaker 1: said right off the top. Maybe it just feels to

871
00:52:13,000 --> 00:52:16,440
Speaker 1: me like when you're screaming about something that hadn't even happened.

872
00:52:16,239 --> 00:52:19,120
Speaker 2: Yet boy you got something.

873
00:52:19,200 --> 00:52:25,120
Speaker 4: Oh boy do you think? I mean? Up in arms? Though?

874
00:52:29,080 --> 00:52:30,000
Speaker 4: How dare they?

875
00:52:31,719 --> 00:52:35,360
Speaker 1: And we're like, how how dare they? What what happened?

876
00:52:36,040 --> 00:52:42,680
Speaker 1: But nobody said anything? Yet? Nobody said anything. You start

877
00:52:42,680 --> 00:52:45,040
Speaker 1: threatening the media before the media has even said a word.

878
00:52:46,320 --> 00:52:50,440
Speaker 1: Oh boy, that's that's some serious back in time bs.

879
00:52:50,520 --> 00:52:52,400
Speaker 2: Right, there is what that is.

880
00:52:54,880 --> 00:52:57,400
Speaker 1: Just like in basketball, successful game plan starts with the

881
00:52:57,440 --> 00:53:00,839
Speaker 1: right players. The team attractor supply is hustle and heart,

882
00:53:00,840 --> 00:53:02,799
Speaker 1: and that's what really sets them apart. So lace up

883
00:53:02,800 --> 00:53:05,480

Speaker 2: But we're working through all of it with you from Salama.

892
00:53:31,280 --> 00:53:35,480
Speaker 1: Mark Willard, It's Fox Sports Radio, Okay, Tyreck dot com Studios.

Speaker 1: Western Conference playing tournament for me, has he's almost kind

895
00:53:44,440 --> 00:53:46,319
Speaker 1: of lost a little bit of luster, even though it's

896
00:53:46,320 --> 00:53:49,240
Speaker 1: still got a lot of luster. I'll explain. Adam Silver's

897
00:53:49,239 --> 00:53:51,799
Speaker 1: got a new idea for the All Star Game. We'll

898
00:53:51,800 --> 00:53:52,480
Speaker 1: get into it.

899
00:53:53,640 --> 00:53:56,720
Speaker 2: You see your you see your boys from Grand Canyon

900
00:53:56,800 --> 00:53:57,120

00:54:01,480 --> 00:54:03,399
Speaker 3: just had to lead. They just turned the ball over.

903
00:54:03,440 --> 00:54:06,840
Speaker 3: They had to lead. And so this is one of

904
00:54:06,880 --> 00:54:13,040
Speaker 3: just one of those situations. Manof I know Alabama, no one.

905
00:54:13,680 --> 00:54:16,640
Speaker 3: They gonna go crazy getting the limited it last year,

906

907
00:54:21,200 --> 00:54:22,120
Speaker 4: Oh my god.

908
00:54:23,160 --> 00:54:27,480
Speaker 1: Well, let's be real, though, if it's not football, it

909
00:54:27,520 --> 00:54:28,759
Speaker 1: doesn't really land, does it.

Speaker 4: But you know what I mean, Yeah, I get it.

913
00:54:36,840 --> 00:54:37,640
Speaker 2: You get over it.

914
00:54:39,080 --> 00:54:42,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I mean not the basketball team though. Not

915
00:54:42,280 --> 00:54:42,720
Speaker 4: the coach.

916
00:54:43,280 --> 00:54:46,200
Speaker 3: No, no, not there, not the administration when they told

917
00:54:46,200 --> 00:54:51,720

918
00:54:51,719 --> 00:54:53,120
Speaker 3: the majors in the tournament.

919
00:54:53,719 --> 00:54:58,600
Speaker 1: It's uh, it's been a pretty good opening weekend of

920
00:54:58,640 --> 00:54:59,080
Speaker 1: the tournament.

921
00:54:59,120 --> 00:54:59,960
Speaker 2: Don't you think. I love it?

922
00:55:00,200 --> 00:55:02,640

923
00:55:02,840 --> 00:55:07,160
Speaker 4: we talked about it last week. I have zero pressure,

924
00:55:08,120 --> 00:55:10,480
Speaker 4: no bracket. I have no bracket. The only pressure I

925
00:55:10,480 --> 00:55:12,400
Speaker 4: feel is when sant Diego plays. That's it.

926
00:55:13,160 --> 00:55:15,719
Speaker 2: Well, we're about to find out what that looks and

927
00:55:15,800 --> 00:55:20,279
Speaker 2: sounds like. Under pressure. Yeah no, but I'm I'm with you.

928
00:55:20,520 --> 00:55:24,200
Speaker 1: I'm with you. I I gotta tell you. I like

929
00:55:24,800 --> 00:55:27,680
Speaker 1: and I don't know what it is. Enjoy the hell

930
00:55:27,719 --> 00:55:30,719
Speaker 1: out of the game of basketball. And I'm kind of

931
00:55:30,800 --> 00:55:35,600
Speaker 1: digging the tournament from the perspective of you've had your

932
00:55:35,840 --> 00:55:38,040
Speaker 1: what I would consider and this is gonna sound weird,

933
00:55:38,120 --> 00:55:42,160
Speaker 1: but the correct amount of upsets. In other words, like

934
00:55:42,320 --> 00:55:46,800
Speaker 1: everybody loves that Yale beat Auburn. That's fun. That's just fun.

935
00:55:46,920 --> 00:55:49,719
Speaker 1: I don't care, Like unless you're an Auburn fan, right,

936
00:55:50,320 --> 00:55:58,040
Speaker 1: Yale Yale, Yale beat Auburn in sports, that's not supposed

937
00:55:58,080 --> 00:55:59,759
Speaker 1: to happen, right, I don't care.

938
00:55:59,800 --> 00:56:07,480
Speaker 4: What So that's fun the you know, the debate team

939
00:56:07,719 --> 00:56:09,560
Speaker 4: or the right.

940
00:56:11,080 --> 00:56:11,600
Speaker 2: Exactly.

941
00:56:12,000 --> 00:56:14,359
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's not like this.

942
00:56:15,000 --> 00:56:19,080
Speaker 1: Twelve seeds all did really really well. James Madison didn't

943
00:56:19,080 --> 00:56:21,520
Speaker 1: go out till today. Grand Canyons fighting for their life.

944
00:56:21,600 --> 00:56:24,319
Speaker 1: Right now, they're only down by two with a little

945
00:56:24,400 --> 00:56:27,759
Speaker 1: under five minutes left to go. Right amount of upsets,

946
00:56:27,920 --> 00:56:31,840
Speaker 1: Because the reason you don't want more is, I still

947
00:56:31,920 --> 00:56:34,359
Speaker 1: do you know, you want to get to the end.

948
00:56:35,080 --> 00:56:36,840
Speaker 2: You want to get to the second weekend.

949
00:56:37,000 --> 00:56:40,000
Speaker 1: You certainly want to get to the third weekend with

950
00:56:40,600 --> 00:56:44,759
Speaker 1: some powerhouses there. Now, I think our definition of what

951
00:56:44,800 --> 00:56:48,080
Speaker 1: a powerhouse is maybe has changed a little bit in

952
00:56:48,120 --> 00:56:48,920
Speaker 1: the last few.

953
00:56:48,800 --> 00:56:51,160
Speaker 2: Years, right, but you know what I'm talking about.

954
00:56:51,200 --> 00:56:54,040
Speaker 1: Also, like because a lot of times those upsets come

955
00:56:54,080 --> 00:56:57,399
Speaker 1: from a team that's just like we caught one one

956
00:56:57,480 --> 00:57:01,400
Speaker 1: night and then you know, like I remember I was

957
00:57:01,520 --> 00:57:06,200
Speaker 1: at the Final four when George Mason made it, and everyone's.

958
00:57:05,800 --> 00:57:08,879
Speaker 2: Like, wow, this is incredible. George Mason made it. Oh

959
00:57:08,920 --> 00:57:09,279
Speaker 2: my god.

960
00:57:09,320 --> 00:57:13,120
Speaker 1: They got their doors blown off, doors blown off when

961
00:57:13,120 --> 00:57:15,560
Speaker 1: they got there, and that's no good.

962
00:57:15,400 --> 00:57:17,480
Speaker 2: Like you want, you want, you want some real games.

963
00:57:17,480 --> 00:57:20,520
Speaker 1: So I do think there is there's a right amount

964
00:57:21,240 --> 00:57:25,439
Speaker 1: of upsets, but you want the little numbers to get

965
00:57:25,480 --> 00:57:28,640
Speaker 1: into the second in the third weekend, and uh, and

966
00:57:28,720 --> 00:57:30,040
Speaker 1: by and large we've got that.

967
00:57:30,840 --> 00:57:31,320
Speaker 2: I don't know that.

968
00:57:31,440 --> 00:57:35,840
Speaker 1: We don't really have any sort of like crazy cinderellas

969
00:57:35,840 --> 00:57:37,720
Speaker 1: that have made the Sweet sixteen.

970
00:57:38,000 --> 00:57:40,439
Speaker 4: Not yet, No, not on that, not on the first half.

971
00:57:40,560 --> 00:57:44,840
Speaker 1: No, you better hope they don't because only like it's

972
00:57:44,880 --> 00:57:46,000
Speaker 1: either Grand Canyon or.

973
00:57:48,120 --> 00:57:50,840
Speaker 4: Yale.

974
00:57:52,080 --> 00:57:55,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, we don't want to want that, now, do we

975
00:57:55,600 --> 00:57:56,280
Speaker 3: don't want that?

976
00:57:56,960 --> 00:57:57,240
Speaker 2: No?

977
00:57:57,360 --> 00:58:00,440
Speaker 1: But you know, you catch what I'm looking at, Like

978
00:58:00,680 --> 00:58:04,920
Speaker 1: right now, the Sweet sixteen as we know it, Illinois

979
00:58:04,960 --> 00:58:05,919
Speaker 1: playing Iowa State.

980
00:58:06,000 --> 00:58:07,240
Speaker 2: That's a two versus a three.

981
00:58:07,440 --> 00:58:12,480
Speaker 1: N C State, I guess would be, you know, like

982
00:58:12,520 --> 00:58:16,160
Speaker 1: that's an eleven seed, but it's also NC State right right,

983
00:58:16,240 --> 00:58:20,120
Speaker 1: North Carolina, Purdue, Gonzaga, Creighton, Tennessee, Clemson, Arizona.

984
00:58:20,160 --> 00:58:21,360
Speaker 2: Those are the teams that are in.

985
00:58:22,000 --> 00:58:26,640
Speaker 1: So we've had some fun and some surprises, but we're

986
00:58:26,680 --> 00:58:31,440
Speaker 1: also two games away from everybody. Pretty much everybody who

987
00:58:31,560 --> 00:58:33,200
Speaker 1: made it is just a big damn deal.

988
00:58:34,880 --> 00:58:38,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's great. I'd love to see Grand Canyon in there.

989
00:58:38,240 --> 00:58:40,640
Speaker 3: I think they're a terrific program that a lot of

990
00:58:40,640 --> 00:58:47,200
Speaker 3: people don't know about. They are deadly on their home court,

991
00:58:47,320 --> 00:58:52,280
Speaker 3: goodness gracious, and I just they just are athletic. They

992
00:58:52,320 --> 00:58:55,560
Speaker 3: played good basketball. I think they've only been in Division

993
00:58:55,560 --> 00:58:58,360
Speaker 3: One for like four years or something like that. Don't

994
00:58:58,440 --> 00:59:02,080
Speaker 3: quote me on that. I'm just, you know, but it's

995
00:59:02,080 --> 00:59:07,640
Speaker 3: a really a really good program. And I love when

996
00:59:07,880 --> 00:59:11,680
Speaker 3: people get to see that there's really good coaches and

997
00:59:11,760 --> 00:59:16,640
Speaker 3: different programs out there. Because none of these teams play

998
00:59:16,680 --> 00:59:19,560
Speaker 3: on TV, and you know, they're not in big markets

999
00:59:19,600 --> 00:59:21,520
Speaker 3: and so you don't get the chance to see that.

1000
00:59:22,600 --> 00:59:25,080
Speaker 3: So the perception of your only viable if you go

1001
00:59:25,160 --> 00:59:27,200
Speaker 3: to a blue blood or if you go to the

1002
00:59:27,320 --> 00:59:31,120
Speaker 3: you know, the Big Ten or you know something like that.

1003
00:59:31,240 --> 00:59:33,760
Speaker 4: It's that's not the case. It's not the case.

1004
00:59:34,120 --> 00:59:37,080
Speaker 3: I mean, Mountain West has six teams in the tournament,

1005
00:59:37,080 --> 00:59:40,400
Speaker 3: that the third most teams are out of any conference

1006
00:59:40,440 --> 00:59:45,080
Speaker 3: in the tournament. That's that's crazy, like every game was

1007
00:59:45,120 --> 00:59:49,080
Speaker 3: a quad one game. But that goes that speaks to

1008
00:59:49,120 --> 00:59:54,000
Speaker 3: the transfer portal, that speaks to the dynamic coaching staffs

1009
00:59:54,160 --> 00:59:57,080
Speaker 3: and and because that's what it's all about. You know,

1010
00:59:57,160 --> 01:00:00,840
Speaker 3: this whole notion of you know, these top five star

1011
01:00:01,000 --> 01:00:04,560
Speaker 3: recruits one and done's helping you win that that's over man,

1012
01:00:05,120 --> 01:00:10,000
Speaker 3: because you're running into real teams that have players who've

1013
01:00:10,000 --> 01:00:13,520
Speaker 3: been in college, some of them six years because did

1014
01:00:13,520 --> 01:00:18,240
Speaker 3: you get a COVID year? So you know, these teams

1015
01:00:18,240 --> 01:00:21,680
Speaker 3: have been together and played well together. Lamont Butler is

1016
01:00:21,720 --> 01:00:26,400
Speaker 3: a senior and if he scores like a a couple

1017
01:00:26,480 --> 01:00:31,440
Speaker 3: a handful of points, that's a thousand points and you know,

1018
01:00:32,720 --> 01:00:35,640
Speaker 3: so many tournament games he's played in and all of that.

1019
01:00:35,720 --> 01:00:38,760
Speaker 3: I mean, that's the good part of the tournament. And

1020
01:00:38,840 --> 01:00:43,240
Speaker 3: you look at Houston. Look at Houston. Houston wasn't considered

1021
01:00:43,880 --> 01:00:52,440
Speaker 3: to be, you know, a ginormous power five school.

1022
01:00:53,240 --> 01:00:55,800
Speaker 2: Not now. I mean they used to be a thousand.

1023
01:00:55,600 --> 01:00:57,600
Speaker 4: Years thousand, a million years ago.

1024
01:00:57,720 --> 01:01:01,640
Speaker 1: Alf Sampson was there and right, okay, right, but but

1025
01:01:01,840 --> 01:01:05,960
Speaker 1: now since not since we were kids, and you look

1026
01:01:06,000 --> 01:01:07,120
Speaker 1: what they've been able to do.

1027
01:01:09,760 --> 01:01:12,640
Speaker 3: It's you know, it's it's a testament to to to

1028
01:01:12,720 --> 01:01:15,720
Speaker 3: these programs and these coaches and these kids and and

1029
01:01:15,880 --> 01:01:19,960
Speaker 3: development something we don't get. We don't get a lot

1030
01:01:20,000 --> 01:01:29,520
Speaker 3: of development so far. Based on what you've seen, who's got.

1031
01:01:29,320 --> 01:01:34,720
Speaker 4: The look you can Yeah, you kind of got to

1032
01:01:34,800 --> 01:01:36,240
Speaker 4: look the.

1033
01:01:36,400 --> 01:01:44,120
Speaker 5: Pound pounding Northwest and Purdue. Purdue has a look. Yep,

1034
01:01:48,120 --> 01:01:49,080
Speaker 5: you know it's.

1035
01:01:51,680 --> 01:01:54,760
Speaker 4: You know everybody else it's it's been one of those situations.

1036
01:01:54,800 --> 01:01:56,040
Speaker 4: Du looks really good.

1037
01:01:56,320 --> 01:01:58,960
Speaker 1: Duke, does I mean you just mentioned you know, I mean,

1038
01:01:58,960 --> 01:02:02,280
Speaker 1: we didn't mention North Carol although they didn't struggle much either.

1039
01:02:02,600 --> 01:02:07,760
Speaker 1: The one seeds have been nothing but two double digit victories,

1040
01:02:09,600 --> 01:02:14,840
Speaker 1: and some of them, you know, like very very double digit. Right,

1041
01:02:15,400 --> 01:02:19,000
Speaker 1: they didn't even sweat. They didn't even sweat. So if

1042
01:02:19,000 --> 01:02:22,280
Speaker 1: your boys do win tonight, yeah, it gonna be one

1043
01:02:22,360 --> 01:02:24,120
Speaker 1: hell of a challenge they got on their hands.

1044
01:02:24,160 --> 01:02:24,360
Speaker 2: Next.

1045
01:02:24,480 --> 01:02:27,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, it'll be a rematch of the National Championship game.

1046
01:02:27,240 --> 01:02:29,160
Speaker 3: Which is crazy to me that they would put them

1047
01:02:29,160 --> 01:02:30,400
Speaker 3: in the same Why would you put them in the

1048
01:02:30,440 --> 01:02:31,520
Speaker 3: same bracket.

1049
01:02:32,640 --> 01:02:38,400
Speaker 1: Well, it's possible that you sort of view San Diego

1050
01:02:38,480 --> 01:02:41,760
Speaker 1: State through a different lens than maybe the selection committee did.

1051
01:02:42,280 --> 01:02:44,760
Speaker 2: Of course, come on now, of course it's possible.

1052
01:02:45,760 --> 01:02:47,640
Speaker 1: I know they went to the finals last year, but

1053
01:02:48,200 --> 01:02:52,040
Speaker 1: different year, different team. I don't know if they've earned

1054
01:02:52,080 --> 01:02:54,080
Speaker 1: the right to sort of like select their bracket.

1055
01:02:54,080 --> 01:02:57,400
Speaker 3: In other words, No, it's not that. It's about you know,

1056
01:02:57,560 --> 01:03:01,920
Speaker 3: top teams on the West coast right right, So why

1057
01:03:01,920 --> 01:03:05,560
Speaker 3: would you put him in the east? Well, because that's

1058
01:03:05,600 --> 01:03:07,920
Speaker 3: just what march madness does. That's what I'm saying, though.

1059
01:03:07,920 --> 01:03:09,960
Speaker 3: I'm like, if you are one of the top teams

1060
01:03:09,960 --> 01:03:14,800
Speaker 3: on the on the West coast and have been for years, why.

1061
01:03:14,640 --> 01:03:15,760
Speaker 2: Would you put him in the east.

1062
01:03:17,480 --> 01:03:20,280
Speaker 1: We've got one of the top broadcasters on the West coast,

1063
01:03:20,320 --> 01:03:22,240
Speaker 1: and you're right, we keep him right here in the west.

1064
01:03:23,000 --> 01:03:25,080
Speaker 1: We keep him right here in the building. His name

1065
01:03:25,160 --> 01:03:28,200
Speaker 1: is Steve de Seger and and ladies and gentlemen here

1066
01:03:28,200 --> 01:03:28,480
Speaker 1: he is.

1067
01:03:29,000 --> 01:03:29,520
Speaker 2: Good evening.

1068
01:03:29,520 --> 01:03:32,200
Speaker 9: Once again, gentlemen, I would like to alert a certain

1069
01:03:32,280 --> 01:03:35,080
Speaker 9: fan base that the San Diego State Yale game will

1070
01:03:35,080 --> 01:03:38,000
Speaker 9: not be starting on time tonight. It's not going to

1071
01:03:38,080 --> 01:03:42,200
Speaker 9: be starting until after ten pm Eastern time because they're

1072
01:03:42,280 --> 01:03:45,680
Speaker 9: using the court in Spokane that Alabama and Grand Canyon

1073
01:03:45,840 --> 01:03:46,840
Speaker 9: are on currently.

1074
01:03:47,680 --> 01:03:50,040
Speaker 2: I'm rooting for overtime no, don't do that.

1075
01:03:50,080 --> 01:03:50,320
Speaker 4: Man.

1076
01:03:50,720 --> 01:03:53,439
Speaker 1: I called this in. I called this in because I'm like, look,

1077
01:03:53,800 --> 01:03:55,560
Speaker 1: the show's over. When that game starts.

1078
01:03:55,680 --> 01:03:58,600
Speaker 9: Have his Aztecs tip after the show finishes, is.

1079
01:03:58,520 --> 01:03:59,840
Speaker 2: The play that would be great.

1080
01:04:01,200 --> 01:04:04,360
Speaker 9: Alabama, by the way, is a team that tied for

1081
01:04:04,400 --> 01:04:07,320
Speaker 9: second place in the SEC this season, only one game

1082
01:04:07,400 --> 01:04:11,160
Speaker 9: behind Tennessee. Alabama has just upped its lead over Grand

1083
01:04:11,200 --> 01:04:13,600
Speaker 9: Canyon to sixty four to sixty one two and a

1084
01:04:13,680 --> 01:04:16,880
Speaker 9: half minutes to go. This is the Grand Canyon team

1085
01:04:16,920 --> 01:04:21,800
Speaker 9: that is tonight shooting from three point range two of nineteen. Maneez,

1086
01:04:21,880 --> 01:04:25,440
Speaker 9: and they are only down three against Alba.

1087
01:04:25,600 --> 01:04:27,480
Speaker 4: The turnovers, they keep turning the ball over.

1088
01:04:28,280 --> 01:04:31,480
Speaker 9: But you're right, the excitement and the screaming, that's the

1089
01:04:31,560 --> 01:04:34,840
Speaker 9: accurate word. The screaming coming through from that arena when

1090
01:04:34,840 --> 01:04:37,680
Speaker 9: Grand Canyon tied and then took the lead was just

1091
01:04:38,000 --> 01:04:41,919
Speaker 9: part of the thrills that is March Madness every year.

1092
01:04:42,360 --> 01:04:45,400
Speaker 9: Bama has just scored again, sixty six sixty one over

1093
01:04:45,480 --> 01:04:48,480

01:04:52,680 --> 01:04:56,920
Speaker 9: eight minutes to play in that game, well, no, Northwestern

1096
01:04:56,960 --> 01:04:59,320
Speaker 9: isn't doing well. But from three point range, neither is

1097
01:04:59,360 --> 01:05:03,200

01:07:13,960 --> 01:07:18,240
Speaker 9: run against the Yankees. Meanwhile, US men's soccer is playing

1136
01:07:18,240 --> 01:07:21,880
Speaker 9: Mexico as we speak at the Dallas Cowboys Stadium in Arlington.

Speaker 1: Right, Steve, great stuff, We appreciate it. I am not

01:07:37,200 --> 01:07:39,360
Speaker 1: going to get my wish here in the tyret dot

Speaker 1: com studios.

1145
01:07:40,000 --> 01:07:41,040
Speaker 2: We're not getting overtime.

1146
01:07:42,080 --> 01:07:44,600
Speaker 1: No, just things about your boy, your boys from Grand Canyon,

1147
01:07:45,080 --> 01:07:46,120
Speaker 1: love them boy.

1148
01:07:46,160 --> 01:07:50,240
Speaker 3: They fell apart man turnover, turnover, turnover, turnover, get the

1149
01:07:50,320 --> 01:07:51,640
Speaker 3: rebound and then lose.

1150
01:07:53,120 --> 01:07:55,160
Speaker 1: I mean, I know they got that one break and

1151
01:07:55,240 --> 01:07:58,040
Speaker 1: all they turned it into was just a you know,

1152
01:07:58,160 --> 01:08:01,400
Speaker 1: kind of a flail three point shot that did not go.

1153
01:08:02,080 --> 01:08:06,320
Speaker 1: And and Alabama has pulled away. And so in the

1154
01:08:06,400 --> 01:08:11,080
Speaker 1: last twenty four hours, the SEC has saved face a

1155
01:08:11,080 --> 01:08:15,120
Speaker 1: little bit with with Tennessee holding off Texas and and

1156
01:08:15,240 --> 01:08:17,880
Speaker 1: Alabama doing their thing today, So they were going to

1157
01:08:17,960 --> 01:08:19,679
Speaker 1: punch their tickets to next weekend too.

1158
01:08:21,160 --> 01:08:23,479
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's uh, it's great man. This was And look,

1159
01:08:23,680 --> 01:08:27,200
Speaker 3: these matchups are great. These matchups are great. You look

1160
01:08:27,200 --> 01:08:30,400
Speaker 3: at these these teams outside of what Yukon is doing

1161
01:08:30,439 --> 01:08:35,840
Speaker 3: in Northwestern and it's you know, late in the second half,

1162
01:08:36,080 --> 01:08:39,759
Speaker 3: these you know, close games. You look at this Texas

1163
01:08:39,800 --> 01:08:42,760
Speaker 3: A and M Houston games twenty seven thirty Houston.

1164
01:08:42,400 --> 01:08:44,840
Speaker 1: On tightening up. Yeah, that one's got that one's got

1165
01:08:44,840 --> 01:08:45,640
Speaker 1: a long way to go.

1166
01:08:45,960 --> 01:08:50,400
Speaker 4: But this is this is the whole point is the entertainment, right,

1167
01:08:50,439 --> 01:08:53,240
Speaker 4: you're captivating, You're sitting down, you're watching. Whether you watch

1168
01:08:53,280 --> 01:08:58,519
Speaker 4: college basketball all year, you're captivated. Now you're tuned in.

1169
01:08:59,160 --> 01:09:04,559
Speaker 1: Well, what sports has figured out, and maybe is an

1170
01:09:04,640 --> 01:09:07,360
Speaker 1: underrated part of why we love the NFL so much,

1171
01:09:07,439 --> 01:09:09,200
Speaker 1: is that when you get to the end of the year,

1172
01:09:09,320 --> 01:09:15,920
Speaker 1: you have elimination games, nothing but just elimination games. Now,

1173
01:09:15,920 --> 01:09:19,120
Speaker 1: obviously there are plenty of sports where that's not doable.

1174
01:09:19,160 --> 01:09:21,040
Speaker 1: You can't do that in the NBA, you can't do

1175
01:09:21,080 --> 01:09:23,000
Speaker 1: it in Major League baseball. But the more of those

1176
01:09:23,040 --> 01:09:25,400
Speaker 1: that you can create, the better. It's a big part

1177
01:09:25,439 --> 01:09:27,960
Speaker 1: of the reason why the NBA has created this play

1178
01:09:28,000 --> 01:09:31,880
Speaker 1: in tournament, multiple reasons. Money is getting more people involved

1179
01:09:31,880 --> 01:09:34,880
Speaker 1: in the playoffs. And in fact, like I'll share with

1180
01:09:34,960 --> 01:09:38,560
Speaker 1: you a dynamic I started talking about this week in

1181
01:09:38,920 --> 01:09:41,280
Speaker 1: the Bay Area where the playing tournament. And let me

1182
01:09:41,320 --> 01:09:44,479
Speaker 1: say this, I am in favor of it. You'll never

1183
01:09:44,560 --> 01:09:49,000
Speaker 1: hear me go, oh, this concocted, ridiculous thing. It's all concocted,

1184
01:09:50,680 --> 01:09:53,320
Speaker 1: you know, Like there shouldn't be ten, there should only

1185
01:09:53,400 --> 01:09:53,679
Speaker 1: be eight.

1186
01:09:54,080 --> 01:09:55,000
Speaker 2: Well why was it eight?

1187
01:09:55,200 --> 01:09:58,360
Speaker 1: Because somebody made it eight, or somebody made it four,

1188
01:09:59,160 --> 01:10:02,439
Speaker 1: or someone made to begin with, Like, it's all just

1189
01:10:02,640 --> 01:10:06,679
Speaker 1: here for us. So I've got nothing bad to say

1190
01:10:06,680 --> 01:10:09,080
Speaker 1: about the playing tournament. I think it's really smart, but

1191
01:10:09,120 --> 01:10:15,040
Speaker 1: I do think for certain franchises it can run the

1192
01:10:15,160 --> 01:10:19,160
Speaker 1: risk of making you think your season's going better than

1193
01:10:19,160 --> 01:10:24,200
Speaker 1: it is. Like, I know what the Lakers achieved last year.

1194
01:10:24,400 --> 01:10:28,479
Speaker 1: I know how you feel about this team. However, I

1195
01:10:28,520 --> 01:10:31,080
Speaker 1: thought last year came together for them at the trade

1196
01:10:31,120 --> 01:10:35,800
Speaker 1: deadline and made them a different team, and that team

1197
01:10:36,479 --> 01:10:38,600
Speaker 1: had the ability to make a little bit of a

1198
01:10:38,680 --> 01:10:40,599
Speaker 1: run a little bit of a run.

1199
01:10:41,200 --> 01:10:42,920
Speaker 2: I don't feel that way this year.

1200
01:10:42,920 --> 01:10:48,439
Speaker 1: And what fascinates me about the two ratings drivers of

1201
01:10:48,479 --> 01:10:52,679
Speaker 1: the NBA is that both of them are very likely

1202
01:10:52,720 --> 01:10:54,960
Speaker 1: to be in a position and I'm talking about Lebron

1203
01:10:55,000 --> 01:10:57,720
Speaker 1: and Steph They're both very likely to be in a

1204
01:10:57,720 --> 01:11:00,000
Speaker 1: position where we're going to have to win two eliminations

1205
01:11:00,200 --> 01:11:03,240
Speaker 1: games just to even get to the playoffs, which means

1206
01:11:03,240 --> 01:11:06,120
Speaker 1: there's a very strong chance that neither of them go.

1207
01:11:06,840 --> 01:11:09,800
Speaker 1: And even if they do, the fact that both of

1208
01:11:09,840 --> 01:11:12,760
Speaker 1: them are sitting here at the end of the year

1209
01:11:14,080 --> 01:11:20,080
Speaker 1: battling it out for ninth and tenth in their half

1210
01:11:20,320 --> 01:11:26,799
Speaker 1: of the league is kind of silly, to be honest

1211
01:11:26,800 --> 01:11:29,559
Speaker 1: with you, when you pair it with the way these two.

1212
01:11:29,360 --> 01:11:30,400
Speaker 2: Teams are talked about.

1213
01:11:31,280 --> 01:11:33,000
Speaker 1: I do not find either one of them to be

1214
01:11:33,040 --> 01:11:37,680
Speaker 1: major threats right now at all, and they're.

1215
01:11:37,240 --> 01:11:40,680
Speaker 2: Aging, and it makes you wonder what the offseason is

1216
01:11:40,720 --> 01:11:41,360
Speaker 2: going to look.

1217
01:11:41,200 --> 01:11:42,000
Speaker 4: Like for both.

1218
01:11:44,040 --> 01:11:48,519
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, it's that old Avich. This is the end,

1219
01:11:49,680 --> 01:11:57,240
Speaker 3: my only friend, the end. And look, I'm pulling for

1220
01:11:57,320 --> 01:12:00,280
Speaker 3: the Lakers to finish up strong and go on one

1221
01:12:00,320 --> 01:12:04,000
Speaker 3: of those runs that they had last year all the

1222
01:12:04,040 --> 01:12:08,439
Speaker 3: way to the Western Conference Finals. Fingers crossed.

1223
01:12:09,000 --> 01:12:11,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean the way shape it up now. And

1224
01:12:11,920 --> 01:12:14,519
Speaker 1: as you heard Steve say, the Warriors just dropped another one.

1225
01:12:14,680 --> 01:12:17,639
Speaker 4: They did another one, brother, brother.

1226
01:12:17,840 --> 01:12:19,280
Speaker 2: I don't even know if the Warriors are going to

1227
01:12:19,320 --> 01:12:22,880
Speaker 2: make the play in tournament. The Rockets have won eight

1228
01:12:22,920 --> 01:12:24,519
Speaker 2: games in a row and they're only.

1229
01:12:24,400 --> 01:12:27,840
Speaker 1: A game back. Oh goodness of Golden State. So there's

1230
01:12:27,880 --> 01:12:31,760
Speaker 1: your ultimate embarrassment. But even if they do hold them off,

1231
01:12:32,760 --> 01:12:35,080
Speaker 1: they're going to I mean, it very much looks like

1232
01:12:35,120 --> 01:12:38,240
Speaker 1: it would be Golden State at LA for that nine

1233
01:12:38,280 --> 01:12:41,679
Speaker 1: to ten game. Don't love the Warriors' chances there. Whoever

1234
01:12:41,720 --> 01:12:43,920
Speaker 1: comes out of that is going to go have to

1235
01:12:43,920 --> 01:12:47,960
Speaker 1: play against the loser of the whichever ends up happening

1236
01:12:48,000 --> 01:12:52,360
Speaker 1: in that Sun's King's Mavericks triple threat situation.

1237
01:12:53,080 --> 01:12:55,600
Speaker 2: That's going to be hard, you know.

1238
01:12:55,960 --> 01:13:00,439
Speaker 1: I just it feels like these two teams will get

1239
01:13:00,479 --> 01:13:03,559
Speaker 1: talked about as like well they could and champs and

1240
01:13:03,600 --> 01:13:05,439
Speaker 1: you don't want to play them and all that. It's like,

1241
01:13:06,120 --> 01:13:09,960
Speaker 1: I hope their front offices both know that. It's like, no,

1242
01:13:11,000 --> 01:13:12,280
Speaker 1: you really weren't that close.

1243
01:13:13,479 --> 01:13:19,040
Speaker 4: No they're not close. They're not close, but there's hope.

1244
01:13:19,439 --> 01:13:22,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, until there isn't there is, and so that's fun.

1247
01:13:28,120 --> 01:13:31,000

1261
01:14:14,400 --> 01:14:17,040
Speaker 1: first half is not going to do so. Minute to

Speaker 2: But uh, this is gonna be a basketball game.

1264
01:14:22,160 --> 01:14:24,200
Speaker 1: They're gonna have to play if they want to get

1265
01:14:24,200 --> 01:14:26,280
Speaker 1: it to the second weekend. And I know a lot

1266
01:14:26,320 --> 01:14:29,960
Speaker 1: of people who have Houston at the end of their

1267
01:14:30,000 --> 01:14:31,719
Speaker 1: brackets as the last one standing.

1268
01:14:32,520 --> 01:14:34,679
Speaker 4: Yeah, A lot of people and so.

1269
01:14:36,720 --> 01:14:40,080
Speaker 3: A lot of Right now, if your bracket is still whole,

1270
01:14:40,560 --> 01:14:43,240
Speaker 3: you know, nobody's bracket is whole. I mean no, Yeah,

1271
01:14:43,400 --> 01:14:46,479
Speaker 3: Yale killed every bracket on the planet Earth.

1272
01:14:49,720 --> 01:14:53,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, if they hadn't been killed by Kentucky already. So sore,

1273
01:14:54,120 --> 01:14:55,439
Speaker 1: no question there, all.

1274
01:14:55,400 --> 01:14:56,800
Speaker 2: Right, Hey, what do you think about this?

1275
01:14:56,920 --> 01:14:59,200
Speaker 1: As we as we watched this one come down to

1276
01:14:59,320 --> 01:15:01,680
Speaker 1: halftime and we get ready for San Diego State and

1277
01:15:01,760 --> 01:15:06,559
Speaker 1: Yale nightcap of the opening weekend of the NCAA Tournament.

1278
01:15:07,439 --> 01:15:10,280
Speaker 1: I've been sitting there, You and I were talking a

1279
01:15:10,320 --> 01:15:12,920
Speaker 1: lot about the NBA All Star Game and that really

1280
01:15:13,760 --> 01:15:16,160
Speaker 1: it really seemed to hit people in an even worse

1281
01:15:16,200 --> 01:15:20,000
Speaker 1: way than it normally does this year, the lotly gagging around,

1282
01:15:20,040 --> 01:15:23,120
Speaker 1: the no defense, the just whatever nature of the whole thing,

1283
01:15:23,560 --> 01:15:26,479
Speaker 1: Nicola Jokics cruising around like what are we even doing here?

1284
01:15:26,920 --> 01:15:30,439
Speaker 2: That whole thing. It really hit people in a certain way.

1285
01:15:30,479 --> 01:15:33,559
Speaker 1: So there was quite a discussion, and I think that

1286
01:15:34,040 --> 01:15:36,160
Speaker 1: in the end, like when I look at it, I'm like,

1287
01:15:36,680 --> 01:15:38,680
Speaker 1: I don't know what it is you can do about this.

1288
01:15:39,760 --> 01:15:42,639
Speaker 1: You're not going to get these guys to play hard.

1289
01:15:42,760 --> 01:15:44,759
Speaker 1: I don't even want them to play hard. I don't

1290
01:15:44,800 --> 01:15:48,320
Speaker 1: want Jannis getting hurt in the All Star Game.

1291
01:15:48,439 --> 01:15:51,000
Speaker 2: I don't want that. So what's the solution?

1292
01:15:52,160 --> 01:15:55,280
Speaker 1: All I know is I don't like what I'm watching,

1293
01:15:55,320 --> 01:15:58,120
Speaker 1: but I can't tell you what I do want to watch. Well,

1294
01:15:58,120 --> 01:16:00,360
Speaker 1: Adam Silver had a couple interesting things to say. Let

1295
01:16:00,400 --> 01:16:03,000
Speaker 1: me start with this. How do you feel about the

1296
01:16:03,040 --> 01:16:06,120
Speaker 1: idea of turning your All Star Game into USA versus

1297
01:16:06,120 --> 01:16:06,599
Speaker 1: the world?

1298
01:16:08,560 --> 01:16:09,320
Speaker 4: That'd be great?

1299
01:16:10,560 --> 01:16:13,519
Speaker 2: Anastic players against international.

1300
01:16:12,920 --> 01:16:14,760
Speaker 4: Players, that'd be competitive?

1301
01:16:15,920 --> 01:16:19,280
Speaker 2: You think, so? Yes, you think they would try for that? Yep?

1302
01:16:19,320 --> 01:16:21,920
Speaker 2: I do, I do?

1303
01:16:22,080 --> 01:16:22,720
Speaker 4: I really do.

1304
01:16:25,240 --> 01:16:28,800
Speaker 3: I mean they They are in the barbershops. They hear

1305
01:16:29,400 --> 01:16:34,960
Speaker 3: the last five m vps. Aren't even from here. They

1306
01:16:35,000 --> 01:16:38,920
Speaker 3: get it. They understand what's going on. So now you

1307
01:16:38,960 --> 01:16:44,360
Speaker 3: put Giannis, you put Yo Kitchen, you put it embiid

1308
01:16:44,760 --> 01:16:52,599
Speaker 3: Luca hey Man, right, isn't Shay from Canada believe?

1309
01:16:52,680 --> 01:16:57,240
Speaker 1: So? Yes, come on, hey Man, No, there's no there's

1310
01:16:57,240 --> 01:16:59,479
Speaker 1: no question about the team that you could put together.

1311
01:17:00,720 --> 01:17:02,680
Speaker 3: So now when you step on that line, now, when

1312
01:17:02,720 --> 01:17:06,360
Speaker 3: you step on the court, you eat. Who wants to

1313
01:17:06,439 --> 01:17:09,640
Speaker 3: hear the world is better than the US in basketball

1314
01:17:10,760 --> 01:17:11,719
Speaker 3: at the highest level.

1315
01:17:15,040 --> 01:17:18,000
Speaker 1: It certainly does make it more interesting and you can

1316
01:17:18,040 --> 01:17:19,480
Speaker 1: also shorten the game.

1317
01:17:20,840 --> 01:17:28,000
Speaker 4: Ten minute quarters, ten minute quarters. Yeah.

1318
01:17:29,000 --> 01:17:32,479
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, look well here, okay, just now, this

1319
01:17:32,560 --> 01:17:35,360
Speaker 1: is stupid. But one problem that I can immediately think

1320
01:17:35,400 --> 01:17:38,439
Speaker 1: of is you're going to end up with people in

1321
01:17:38,479 --> 01:17:43,240
Speaker 1: the All Star Game that wouldn't have made the All

1322
01:17:43,280 --> 01:17:45,719
Speaker 1: Star Game, and you're going to leave out more people

1323
01:17:45,720 --> 01:17:48,479
Speaker 1: who would have made the All Star Game. Catch what

1324
01:17:48,520 --> 01:17:50,880
Speaker 1: I'm saying, Like I'm trying to go, Okay, give me

1325
01:17:50,920 --> 01:17:58,200
Speaker 1: your top your top twelve international players. I mean, are

1326
01:17:58,200 --> 01:18:01,680
Speaker 1: we getting to some bonus? You know, it's Salon and

1327
01:18:01,720 --> 01:18:04,960
Speaker 1: Butmena in there as a rookie he should be, and

1328
01:18:05,000 --> 01:18:09,080
Speaker 1: Sibona definitely should be. I don't disagree. But in other words,

1329
01:18:09,080 --> 01:18:11,400
Speaker 1: if we're going to limit this now to fifteen of

1330
01:18:11,479 --> 01:18:15,200
Speaker 1: the domestic players, you know who, we were already mad.

1331
01:18:15,080 --> 01:18:17,240
Speaker 2: At some of the people who were left out, So

1332
01:18:17,280 --> 01:18:18,400
Speaker 2: now who are we leaving out?

1333
01:18:20,680 --> 01:18:26,719
Speaker 4: Yeah, And there's no limit on roster size because there's

1334
01:18:26,760 --> 01:18:30,360
Speaker 4: no that's true, Like, you don't have to be constrained

1335
01:18:30,439 --> 01:18:34,720
Speaker 4: to what an NBA roster size is because it's it's

1336
01:18:34,800 --> 01:18:39,000
Speaker 4: not it's a it's an exhibition game of the top

1337
01:18:39,040 --> 01:18:40,360
Speaker 4: players on the planet.

1338
01:18:40,880 --> 01:18:41,160
Speaker 2: Yep.

1339
01:18:41,880 --> 01:18:43,479
Speaker 3: So you can put in who we want to put in.

1340
01:18:45,640 --> 01:18:50,320
Speaker 3: The starters come from the fans with the votes, and

1341
01:18:51,040 --> 01:18:51,919
Speaker 3: you know, the reserves.

1342
01:18:51,960 --> 01:18:53,240
Speaker 2: You can have as many as you want.

1343
01:18:54,160 --> 01:18:56,640
Speaker 1: I only brought it up because the minute I saw it,

1344
01:18:56,680 --> 01:18:59,800
Speaker 1: I went, oh, it was like, you know how many

1345
01:18:59,840 --> 01:19:02,000
Speaker 1: IDs people have had for the All Star Game over

1346
01:19:02,040 --> 01:19:05,960
Speaker 1: the last five years. Every time someone has said anything,

1347
01:19:06,000 --> 01:19:11,320
Speaker 1: I'm like, yawn, no, Niett.

1348
01:19:11,880 --> 01:19:12,479
Speaker 2: Don't lie it.

1349
01:19:13,720 --> 01:19:20,000
Speaker 1: Silver said this, and I went, oh, huh, yeah, I

1350
01:19:20,240 --> 01:19:20,840
Speaker 1: thought of that.

1351
01:19:22,439 --> 01:19:25,360
Speaker 4: Makes sense to me, trusts me.

1352
01:19:26,000 --> 01:19:28,639
Speaker 2: Well, it at least in a different element.

1353
01:19:29,560 --> 01:19:32,479
Speaker 1: It's almost like bringing the Ryder Cup to the NBA

1354
01:19:32,680 --> 01:19:37,800
Speaker 1: or something like that. Yeah, you know, so a little

1355
01:19:37,840 --> 01:19:40,080
Speaker 1: bit different there. And then Silver out of the obvious,

1356
01:19:40,240 --> 01:19:43,280
Speaker 1: which is that he wants more of like the Steph

1357
01:19:43,360 --> 01:19:45,880
Speaker 1: Curry Sabrina Unescu thing.

1358
01:19:46,400 --> 01:19:49,439
Speaker 2: Get Caitlin Clark in there. Do that again. I'm like, sure,

1359
01:19:49,560 --> 01:19:51,200
Speaker 2: that probably rated really well.

1360
01:19:51,960 --> 01:19:55,400
Speaker 4: So that makes all kinds of I'm the top wu

1361
01:19:55,479 --> 01:19:57,559
Speaker 4: NBA players play in the All Star Game.

1362
01:19:58,080 --> 01:20:02,040
Speaker 2: I love it. I love it. Why not? Okay, we

1363
01:20:02,040 --> 01:20:03,200
Speaker 2: can get to that a little bit more.

1364
01:20:03,200 --> 01:20:06,360
Speaker 1: There's also an Otani question that I didn't ask you,

1365
01:20:06,560 --> 01:20:08,280
Speaker 1: so we'll do that coming up next.

1366
01:20:08,320 --> 01:20:11,360
Speaker 2: On Fox Sports Radio. Well, here we.

1367
01:20:11,280 --> 01:20:13,960
Speaker 1: Go into our final hour and a unique one it

1368
01:20:14,040 --> 01:20:17,120
Speaker 1: will be. I mean, let's see, there's the Manning cast,

1369
01:20:17,600 --> 01:20:22,360
Speaker 1: so people get that now in American sports content, we

1370
01:20:22,439 --> 01:20:24,559
Speaker 1: get that. It's kind of like, yeah, let's sit down

1371
01:20:24,600 --> 01:20:27,559
Speaker 1: and watch with someone we want to watch with. And

1372
01:20:27,960 --> 01:20:30,800
Speaker 1: if there's anybody on planet Earth that I'd like to

1373
01:20:30,880 --> 01:20:34,760
Speaker 1: sit down and watch a San Diego State basketball game with,

1374
01:20:36,120 --> 01:20:40,320
Speaker 1: it's Kawhi Leonard. No, I'm kidding, it's you. Kawhi wouldn't

1375
01:20:40,360 --> 01:20:42,479
Speaker 1: say anything. He would just sit there, maybe with one

1376
01:20:42,520 --> 01:20:44,040
Speaker 1: awkward laugh, and.

1377
01:20:43,960 --> 01:20:44,600
Speaker 4: Then that'd be it.

1378
01:20:44,680 --> 01:20:47,800
Speaker 1: I would pick you, Ephrom And so let's do that.

1379
01:20:48,560 --> 01:20:51,880
Speaker 1: San Diego State and Yale. They're gonna get started in

1380

01:21:19,800 --> 01:21:22,200
Speaker 1: just joining us, or if you have not heard yet,

1390
01:21:22,200 --> 01:21:25,840
Speaker 1: today your knee deep in brackets and Sunday with the

1391
01:21:25,880 --> 01:21:29,840
Speaker 1: Fam show. He's going to speak publicly tomorrow and he

1392
01:21:29,960 --> 01:21:34,559
Speaker 1: is going to address the situation. If you kind of

1393
01:21:34,920 --> 01:21:39,360
Speaker 1: went into Friday and into the weekend, there hasn't been

1394
01:21:39,400 --> 01:21:42,479
Speaker 1: a whole lot new that's shared. The only new stuff

1395
01:21:42,520 --> 01:21:45,280
Speaker 1: that came out over the weekend is that apparently this

1396
01:21:45,400 --> 01:21:50,759
Speaker 1: translator eBay now has some discrepancies with regard to his resume.

1397
01:21:51,600 --> 01:21:54,880
Speaker 1: For years, he's been in the media guides of some

1398
01:21:54,920 --> 01:21:58,440
Speaker 1: of these baseball teams as having graduated from uc Riverside.

1399
01:21:58,800 --> 01:22:02,920
Speaker 1: UCR has no record of him ever being on the

1400
01:22:03,000 --> 01:22:07,320
Speaker 1: roster at the school. He also worked for the Boston

1401
01:22:07,360 --> 01:22:08,960
Speaker 1: Red Sox. The Red Sox are like.

1402
01:22:09,080 --> 01:22:14,400
Speaker 2: Oh no, he didn't. So maybe we do have an

1403
01:22:14,520 --> 01:22:17,559
Speaker 2: untrustworthy individual. Maybe we do.

1404
01:22:17,880 --> 01:22:22,160
Speaker 1: Maybe this person's true colors are just about to come out.

1405
01:22:22,320 --> 01:22:25,040
Speaker 2: But there's a lot of smoke and show.

1406
01:22:25,040 --> 01:22:27,960
Speaker 1: Hey is going to talk publicly, and so we're both

1407
01:22:28,840 --> 01:22:32,200
Speaker 1: very fascinated with what he is going to say. Here's

1408
01:22:32,240 --> 01:22:35,200
Speaker 1: a question I got for you. I know they're now

1409
01:22:35,280 --> 01:22:39,000
Speaker 1: alleging massive theft. I have a hard time believing that.

1410
01:22:39,920 --> 01:22:43,439
Speaker 1: I tend to believe the first story that we heard,

1411
01:22:44,080 --> 01:22:47,759
Speaker 1: which is that show Hey decided to help his friend

1412
01:22:48,640 --> 01:22:53,720
Speaker 1: out of a frighteningly large gambling debt.

1413
01:22:54,960 --> 01:22:56,439
Speaker 2: Let's say that did happen.

1414
01:22:57,320 --> 01:23:01,320
Speaker 1: Let's say show Hey picked up for his friend and

1415
01:23:01,439 --> 01:23:05,479
Speaker 1: didn't realize that. Why are transfers in California to an

1416
01:23:05,520 --> 01:23:10,559
Speaker 1: illegal book maker or a crime? The MLB rule book

1417
01:23:10,600 --> 01:23:13,559
Speaker 1: states that in that particular case, it would be essentially

1418
01:23:13,600 --> 01:23:17,000
Speaker 1: out the discretion of Rob Manfred to figure out what

1419
01:23:17,080 --> 01:23:18,080
Speaker 1: the punishment would be.

1420
01:23:19,200 --> 01:23:22,320
Speaker 2: Well, Ephraim, what would the punishment be?

1421
01:23:24,160 --> 01:23:28,479
Speaker 3: Ten game suspension and ten game Yeah, man, it's the

1422
01:23:28,520 --> 01:23:31,720
Speaker 3: business best just the face of the league. Yeah, it's

1423
01:23:31,760 --> 01:23:34,920
Speaker 3: face of the league. Man, It's a face of the league.

1424
01:23:35,439 --> 01:23:39,960
Speaker 3: And you can blame it on ignorance, and you can

1425
01:23:39,960 --> 01:23:46,439
Speaker 3: blame it on you know, the you know, kind of

1426
01:23:46,439 --> 01:23:51,360
Speaker 3: lost in translation, not wasn't quite sure, you know, not

1427
01:23:51,479 --> 01:23:53,840
Speaker 3: from didn't know the guy was an illegal book maker? Like,

1429
01:23:59,360 --> 01:24:02,679
Speaker 3: you know? How would you know? Well, I'm just asking.

1430
01:24:02,680 --> 01:24:05,520
Speaker 3: I don't I mean, I don't know how book making works.

1431
01:24:05,880 --> 01:24:08,439
Speaker 3: I don't know what what makes a legal one. I

1432
01:24:08,439 --> 01:24:10,360
Speaker 3: don't know what makes an illegal one.

1433
01:24:10,840 --> 01:24:13,240
Speaker 1: Well, we can start with your in California, and it's

1434
01:24:13,240 --> 01:24:15,880
Speaker 1: not legal there period. Okay, boom. If it's a book

1435
01:24:15,920 --> 01:24:18,439
Speaker 1: maker in California, that's not legal.

1436
01:24:18,640 --> 01:24:22,040
Speaker 4: Okay, does he know that? I don't know.

Speaker 4: You understand what I'm saying.

1442
01:24:33,120 --> 01:24:35,120
Speaker 3: If you lived in working in Japan and I was like, hey,

1443
01:24:35,600 --> 01:24:37,679
Speaker 3: I can place bets for you and all that, it's

1444
01:24:37,800 --> 01:24:42,320
Speaker 3: you know, you know it's above board you Okay, cool, whatever.

1445
01:24:43,680 --> 01:24:45,360
Speaker 2: Okay, hold on of sense.

1446
01:24:45,360 --> 01:24:48,680
Speaker 4: I'm just saying, man, I don't know. I'm claiming ignorance,

1447
01:24:49,040 --> 01:24:52,519
Speaker 4: and on a human level, I completely get what you're saying.

1448
01:24:52,600 --> 01:24:54,880
Speaker 4: If I went to Japan right now, I wouldn't even

1449
01:24:54,880 --> 01:24:55,599
Speaker 4: know how to order.

1450
01:24:56,080 --> 01:24:58,880
Speaker 3: Know what to do. But if someone you trusted, you're

1451
01:24:59,000 --> 01:25:02,639
Speaker 3: interpreter how But but.

1452
01:25:04,400 --> 01:25:07,400
Speaker 1: I also we're talking about what would I know in

1453
01:25:07,520 --> 01:25:09,960
Speaker 1: Japan if I had lived in work there for over

1454
01:25:10,040 --> 01:25:20,120
Speaker 1: five years and I am an international iconic superstar.

1455
01:25:21,040 --> 01:25:23,200
Speaker 2: Worth millions on his.

1456
01:25:23,200 --> 01:25:25,400
Speaker 4: Way to a billion above the law.

1457
01:25:26,240 --> 01:25:29,880
Speaker 1: I do think that I would be checking these things,

1458
01:25:29,920 --> 01:25:32,840
Speaker 1: but you wouldn't. If you wouldn't because but just i'd

1459
01:25:32,840 --> 01:25:35,280
Speaker 1: have people, but you'd have people checking these things.

1460
01:25:35,320 --> 01:25:37,559
Speaker 4: And what if the people you're checking it out is

1461
01:25:37,560 --> 01:25:40,720
Speaker 4: the one who's That's what I'm That's what I'm getting it.

1462
01:25:40,920 --> 01:25:44,360
Speaker 4: I'm getting my guy once you, once you, and we

1463
01:25:44,360 --> 01:25:47,479
Speaker 4: don't know how many more people are involved. We just

1464
01:25:47,560 --> 01:25:48,680
Speaker 4: know he's involved.

1465
01:25:49,080 --> 01:25:51,000
Speaker 1: But you got a team of lawyers. They're the ones

1466
01:25:51,040 --> 01:25:52,759
Speaker 1: even making these statements, right.

1467
01:25:52,680 --> 01:25:55,760
Speaker 3: But what I'm saying is it could be when this

1468
01:25:55,800 --> 01:25:58,400
Speaker 3: thing comes out and I'm just throwing stuff out there because.

1469
01:25:58,320 --> 01:26:00,280
Speaker 2: No, I know we all are. We don't know what happen.

1470
01:26:00,439 --> 01:26:06,760
Speaker 4: But when you're that big of a a draw, when

1471
01:26:06,800 --> 01:26:12,839
Speaker 4: you're that famous, when you're that famous, you very rarely

1472
01:26:13,000 --> 01:26:15,599
Speaker 4: do things yourself.

1473
01:26:16,479 --> 01:26:16,879
Speaker 2: Correct.

1474
01:26:18,000 --> 01:26:21,519
Speaker 4: Right, Actually, hey man, when's that time? Even grocery shopping.

1475
01:26:25,040 --> 01:26:27,160
Speaker 2: That'd be amazing if you did his own groceries.

1476
01:26:27,200 --> 01:26:29,720
Speaker 4: But you get what I'm saying. So if I do,

1477
01:26:29,800 --> 01:26:34,320
Speaker 4: there is a place where yeah, it sounds weird to

1478
01:26:34,560 --> 01:26:40,200
Speaker 4: normal people, but when you're in the stratosphere, it's like, yeah,

1479
01:26:40,240 --> 01:26:42,920
Speaker 4: I don't know who did what, I don't what come on.

1480
01:26:42,960 --> 01:26:48,840
Speaker 1: Man, Well you can't you can't go to the grocery store.

1481
01:26:48,880 --> 01:26:56,200
Speaker 1: If you show hey, you get mobbed. But this is different.

1482
01:26:57,640 --> 01:26:59,720
Speaker 1: This is why are transfers leading to four and a

1483
01:26:59,760 --> 01:27:03,320
Speaker 1: half million dollars nine of them?

1484
01:27:03,680 --> 01:27:05,680
Speaker 4: Dropping the head? Dropping the head might as well be

1485
01:27:05,720 --> 01:27:11,639
Speaker 4: a kid, Let's no doubt. Let's go to the next step.

1486
01:27:11,840 --> 01:27:13,040
Speaker 4: You're a pro athlete.

1487
01:27:14,720 --> 01:27:18,840
Speaker 1: When your year started and your career started, anybody talk

1488
01:27:18,880 --> 01:27:19,719
Speaker 1: to you about gambling?

1489
01:27:21,360 --> 01:27:24,640
Speaker 4: Yeah? Oh yeah. But if I was in Japan.

1490
01:27:25,960 --> 01:27:30,760
Speaker 3: And I didn't speak Japanese, I'm not sure they'd have

1491
01:27:30,880 --> 01:27:33,400
Speaker 3: that conversation with me, you think.

1492
01:27:34,080 --> 01:27:35,599
Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure they would.

1493
01:27:35,880 --> 01:27:38,240
Speaker 3: I'm pretty sure they would be trying to get me

1494
01:27:38,360 --> 01:27:43,160
Speaker 3: acclimated and get me to learn a few phrases that

1495
01:27:43,360 --> 01:27:47,280
Speaker 3: will help me that probably wouldn't have anything to do

1496
01:27:47,360 --> 01:27:49,320
Speaker 3: with gambling, just saying.

1497
01:27:49,479 --> 01:27:51,080
Speaker 2: Well, here's my first phrase.

1498
01:27:52,240 --> 01:27:55,000
Speaker 1: If you are approached by gamblers, this is the word

1499
01:27:55,040 --> 01:27:55,599
Speaker 1: you need to know.

1500
01:27:56,960 --> 01:27:59,800
Speaker 2: No, that's that.

1501
01:28:01,040 --> 01:28:06,800
Speaker 1: No, I mean, listen the truth of the matter, e

1502
01:28:06,920 --> 01:28:09,720
Speaker 1: from I get what you're saying. And the only way

1503
01:28:09,760 --> 01:28:12,240
Speaker 1: I can respond to that is I don't know. I

1504
01:28:12,320 --> 01:28:15,840
Speaker 1: have no idea what this guy's life is like. I

1505
01:28:15,880 --> 01:28:18,760
Speaker 1: don't know which way is up or down. I don't

1506
01:28:18,840 --> 01:28:21,320
Speaker 1: know how to make sense of his celebrity. It's so

1507
01:28:21,640 --> 01:28:26,280
Speaker 1: large it doesn't even fit in the room. He like

1508
01:28:27,240 --> 01:28:29,920
Speaker 1: this guy, try this on for size.

1509
01:28:30,800 --> 01:28:32,400
Speaker 2: And I don't even know. Did we talk about this

1510
01:28:32,479 --> 01:28:33,040
Speaker 2: last week?

1511
01:28:34,040 --> 01:28:39,120
Speaker 1: Off the field earnings okay, endorsement dollars Major League Baseball

1512
01:28:39,439 --> 01:28:45,479
Speaker 1: last year? Do you realize he made ten times more

1513
01:28:45,720 --> 01:28:52,120
Speaker 1: than second place? Rice Harburn, Bryce Harburn, Aaron Judges last

1514
01:28:52,200 --> 01:28:55,800
Speaker 1: year made about six or seven million dollars, show Hey

1515
01:28:55,840 --> 01:29:03,240
Speaker 1: made sixty five. His stardom globally could not be larger.

1516
01:29:03,560 --> 01:29:06,040
Speaker 3: So that little four million dollars, little funky four million

1517
01:29:06,080 --> 01:29:07,719
Speaker 3: dollars does somebody put somewhere?

1518
01:29:07,760 --> 01:29:08,479
Speaker 4: It is somewhere.

1519
01:29:10,280 --> 01:29:11,160
Speaker 2: It's nothing.

1520
01:29:14,240 --> 01:29:18,840
Speaker 3: On top of the seven hundred and fifty. He's gonna get. Look,

1521
01:29:18,880 --> 01:29:23,519
Speaker 3: I'm telling you, it happens, man, It happens. I guess

1522
01:29:23,520 --> 01:29:27,439
Speaker 3: when you're in when you're not even in the atmosphere.

1523
01:29:29,320 --> 01:29:30,320
Speaker 4: And that's what he is.

1524
01:29:31,840 --> 01:29:41,200
Speaker 3: He is the face of an entire league. Right when

1525
01:29:41,280 --> 01:29:43,920
Speaker 3: Jordan was the face of the NBA and he had

1526
01:29:43,920 --> 01:29:48,040
Speaker 3: his gambling discretions, this was pre social media, pre anything.

1527
01:29:48,600 --> 01:29:51,000
Speaker 4: Yep. Wouldn't you like to know what was going on there?

1528
01:29:51,520 --> 01:29:51,720
Speaker 2: Oh?

1529
01:29:51,800 --> 01:29:58,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely, No one does though, well, right, correct the

1530
01:29:58,360 --> 01:30:01,439
Speaker 1: extent that it was, But no one had ever been

1531
01:30:01,600 --> 01:30:07,840
Speaker 1: caught close to Jordan committing a crime. Somebody else that well,

1532
01:30:07,840 --> 01:30:10,240
Speaker 1: but no one, Yes, we do, we know that no

1533
01:30:10,280 --> 01:30:16,599
Speaker 1: one was caught. Nothing attached to Michael Jordan's name ended

1534
01:30:16,680 --> 01:30:19,400
Speaker 1: up with the Feds and on the internet.

1535
01:30:19,479 --> 01:30:23,519
Speaker 3: Things never really came out back then, right, that's fair

1536
01:30:23,760 --> 01:30:27,120
Speaker 3: just saying I get things weren't happening. I'm not saying

1537
01:30:27,200 --> 01:30:29,840
Speaker 3: Jordan did anything elicit or he knew anything. What I'm

1538
01:30:29,880 --> 01:30:32,080
Speaker 3: saying is we live in a new day and age,

1539
01:30:32,320 --> 01:30:39,760
Speaker 3: we do, and things come out and it's.

1540
01:30:42,000 --> 01:30:45,599
Speaker 1: Hey, man, well here's what I'm trying to say, though,

1541
01:30:45,840 --> 01:30:49,759
Speaker 1: Like I totally can see the side that you're painting,

1542
01:30:50,400 --> 01:30:53,080
Speaker 1: but there's a big button like the side that I

1543
01:30:53,120 --> 01:30:54,160
Speaker 1: can I can.

1544
01:30:54,000 --> 01:30:57,320
Speaker 2: Get with is Look, there's a language barrier.

1545
01:30:58,280 --> 01:31:01,559
Speaker 1: The man is so large that he's got a team

1546
01:31:01,640 --> 01:31:04,439
Speaker 1: of people taking care of everything because that's the way

1547
01:31:04,479 --> 01:31:07,679
Speaker 1: it has to be. And so is there a way

1548
01:31:07,760 --> 01:31:10,280
Speaker 1: that this could have fallen all the way through the cracks?

1549
01:31:10,400 --> 01:31:14,040
Speaker 1: Absolutely and show hey had no idea what I would be.

1550
01:31:14,200 --> 01:31:16,680
Speaker 4: That's that's the narrative I would be pitching.

1551
01:31:16,640 --> 01:31:17,400
Speaker 2: On what right?

1552
01:31:17,600 --> 01:31:19,920
Speaker 1: But but again, you'd be pitching a narrative like because

1553
01:31:19,960 --> 01:31:25,160
Speaker 1: on one hand, I can totally understand how that's possible. However,

1554
01:31:25,720 --> 01:31:30,160
Speaker 1: there is this very large however, which is at the

1555
01:31:30,200 --> 01:31:33,559
Speaker 1: same time when you're talking about that amount of money

1556
01:31:33,600 --> 01:31:37,880
Speaker 1: and that amount of celebrity. I don't think you just

1557
01:31:38,040 --> 01:31:42,720
Speaker 1: go willy nilly into places without.

1558
01:31:42,000 --> 01:31:43,639
Speaker 2: Having any idea what.

1559
01:31:43,640 --> 01:31:48,479
Speaker 1: The rules are, what the consequences may be. You've got

1560
01:31:48,479 --> 01:31:52,880
Speaker 1: a team of incredibly high priced lawyers on your payroll

1561
01:31:53,479 --> 01:31:57,000
Speaker 1: and you're just going to start firing off nine different

1562
01:31:57,160 --> 01:32:01,800
Speaker 1: illegal wire transfers, and your response is to shrug your

1563
01:32:01,800 --> 01:32:08,160
Speaker 1: shoulders and go, whoops, didn't know. It's kind of hard

1564
01:32:08,240 --> 01:32:14,360
Speaker 1: to commit a federal crime and defend yourself with whoops,

1565
01:32:14,640 --> 01:32:15,080
Speaker 1: didn't know.

1566
01:32:16,400 --> 01:32:21,240
Speaker 4: We had a president who did well he snap, no,

1567
01:32:21,439 --> 01:32:21,920
Speaker 4: he didn't.

1568
01:32:22,439 --> 01:32:29,439
Speaker 2: Well, that's if you believe him.

1569
01:32:29,520 --> 01:32:32,120
Speaker 1: That's if you believe him. That's what we'll that's what

1570
01:32:32,160 --> 01:32:36,800
Speaker 1: we'll figure out tomorrow, or we won't or we won't.

1571
01:32:36,920 --> 01:32:40,360
Speaker 1: I just look, there's some baseball players who've been around

1572
01:32:40,400 --> 01:32:43,720
Speaker 1: the block here for a time or two, and uh,

1573
01:32:43,720 --> 01:32:47,320
Speaker 1: they'll tell you that this guy ipe he was beloved

1574
01:32:47,920 --> 01:32:50,960
Speaker 1: and he would show his guy this is right hand

1575
01:32:51,000 --> 01:32:56,280
Speaker 1: man and so what I'm also wondering is if you

1576
01:32:56,360 --> 01:32:58,200
Speaker 1: are the type that would pay four and a half

1577
01:32:58,240 --> 01:33:00,880
Speaker 1: million dollars for your friend because he was in trouble

1578
01:33:00,880 --> 01:33:04,679
Speaker 1: and you loved him, what does that mean the following

1579
01:33:04,760 --> 01:33:10,240
Speaker 1: week when your business, your corporation, your lawyers all.

1580
01:33:10,080 --> 01:33:15,760
Speaker 5: Tell you you need to turn that person into the scapegoat?

1581
01:33:18,640 --> 01:33:28,479
Speaker 2: What do you do? Come on, Jade, oh oh, I forgot.

1582

1607
01:34:55,160 --> 01:34:57,839

1608
01:34:57,840 --> 01:35:01,519
Speaker 1: State has already up double digits, I figured you could

1609
01:35:01,520 --> 01:35:03,240
Speaker 1: put your feet up or we could have a conversation.

1610
01:35:03,360 --> 01:35:04,840
Speaker 4: I'm watching the Laker game as well.

1611
01:35:10,280 --> 01:35:14,840

1614
01:35:23,800 --> 01:35:28,000
Speaker 5: that's terrifying. Uh, they're actually they're down six.

1615
01:35:30,880 --> 01:35:34,600
Speaker 1: Late first quarter at home to the Indiana Pacers, with

1616
01:35:34,840 --> 01:35:39,920
Speaker 1: uh nothing on the line. I would argue that the

1617
01:35:40,000 --> 01:35:43,200
Speaker 1: Lakers are going to be the nine seed. That's that's

1618
01:35:43,240 --> 01:35:46,240
Speaker 1: pretty much a done deal. Do you not agree with that?

1619
01:35:46,360 --> 01:35:48,920
Speaker 3: I'm trying to We're trying to get to six man, okay,

1622
01:35:53,439 --> 01:35:57,439
Speaker 2: ground in the NBA? Do you know.

1623
01:35:58,920 --> 01:35:59,479
Speaker 4: The NBA?

1624
01:35:59,640 --> 01:35:59,840

Speaker 4: Well only like three games three, just three games apart.

Speaker 1: Brother, I don't even know if those teams are going

1642
01:36:45,840 --> 01:36:47,759
Speaker 1: to lose three more games let alone.

1643
01:36:49,120 --> 01:36:52,840
Speaker 2: Come on, man, you're the nine seed.

1644
01:36:55,000 --> 01:36:57,679
Speaker 3: First of all, you're engaging me too much. Okay, all right,

01:36:58,760 --> 01:37:00,720
Speaker 3: don't you have some long seal. Look what you want

1646

Speaker 3: to talk about?

1647
01:37:01,360 --> 01:37:05,160

01:37:05,200 --> 01:37:06,240
Speaker 2: points for right now.

1649
01:37:07,240 --> 01:37:09,080
Speaker 4: Yep, I'm done all.

1650
01:37:09,120 --> 01:37:10,600
Speaker 2: I'm trying to do all I'm trying to do.

1651
01:37:11,680 --> 01:37:13,719
Speaker 3: Here five minutes early, just so you can ask somebody

1652
01:37:13,760 --> 01:37:15,280
Speaker 3: to talk to. I'm just seasing. I'm teasing.

1653
01:37:18,920 --> 01:37:20,960
Speaker 1: I mean, at least wait till the second half, till

1654
01:37:20,960 --> 01:37:22,479
Speaker 1: you stress out about the Lakers'.

1655
01:37:23,520 --> 01:37:25,720
Speaker 4: Yes, oh for the Lakers, Yeah, I can't. You know

1656
01:37:25,800 --> 01:37:26,280
Speaker 4: what it is?

1657
01:37:26,400 --> 01:37:29,240
Speaker 1: Yeah? Whatever, No, you has text. By the way, they've

1658
01:37:29,280 --> 01:37:31,920
Speaker 1: already scored enough. That's like their entire first half, a

1659
01:37:31,920 --> 01:37:34,599
Speaker 1: lot of the points. What happened to the Aztecs team

1660
01:37:34,640 --> 01:37:36,320
Speaker 1: that will beat you fifty two to fifty?

1661
01:37:36,360 --> 01:37:39,040
Speaker 2: What happened? Look at them scoring all these points?

1662
01:37:39,040 --> 01:37:42,080
Speaker 3: Well, yeah, they You know they have a bona fide

1663
01:37:43,840 --> 01:37:45,840
Speaker 3: inside presence with Jaydon Ladee.

1664
01:37:46,880 --> 01:37:47,120
Speaker 4: Uh.

1665
01:37:47,760 --> 01:37:52,040
Speaker 3: Previous years it was very guard heavy in terms of

1666
01:37:52,120 --> 01:37:55,800
Speaker 3: scoring and defense heavy in terms of your bigs. But

1667
01:37:55,880 --> 01:37:57,400
Speaker 3: now you have a guy you could just dump the

1668
01:37:57,400 --> 01:38:02,519
Speaker 3: ball down to and he can get busy. He's hitting

1669
01:38:02,560 --> 01:38:06,000
Speaker 3: threes tonight. He's also hitting threes. Yeah, he can hit. No, No,

1670
01:38:06,000 --> 01:38:08,240
Speaker 3: his inside outside game is is I know he is.

1671
01:38:08,280 --> 01:38:09,519
Speaker 3: I know I know what he can do.

1672
01:38:09,640 --> 01:38:12,000
Speaker 1: I just mean to what like he hit back to

1673
01:38:12,040 --> 01:38:14,280
Speaker 1: back threes earlier in this game, and that's what kind

1674
01:38:14,320 --> 01:38:17,840
Speaker 1: of that's what that's what gave them this this push

1675
01:38:17,880 --> 01:38:19,640
Speaker 1: to be like instead of just like, oh, we're up

1676
01:38:19,640 --> 01:38:22,559
Speaker 1: five or whatever, it was like, bang, double digit victor,

1677
01:38:22,840 --> 01:38:25,040
Speaker 1: double victory, double digit lead right away.

1678
01:38:25,760 --> 01:38:27,200
Speaker 4: I'll take a double jugit victory.

1679
01:38:27,600 --> 01:38:31,840
Speaker 1: They look good. I mean they're just playing smart people.

1680
01:38:31,960 --> 01:38:33,519
Speaker 1: So I don't even know what the big deal is.

1681
01:38:33,840 --> 01:38:36,439
Speaker 3: No, they man, you win basketball, you get to the

1682
01:38:36,479 --> 01:38:39,200
Speaker 3: second round in the tournament, and you get to you

1683
01:38:39,320 --> 01:38:43,559
Speaker 3: keep on overlooking these teams right in the sweet sixteen,

1684
01:38:43,640 --> 01:38:46,960
Speaker 3: you'd be right at home watching them play.

1685
01:38:47,000 --> 01:38:49,840
Speaker 1: Did you refresh my memory because we were doing this

1686
01:38:49,920 --> 01:38:51,120
Speaker 1: at this time last year?

1687
01:38:52,000 --> 01:38:55,960
Speaker 2: Uh? Did you go to all six games yet?

1688
01:38:56,320 --> 01:38:56,840
Speaker 4: Last year?

1689
01:38:57,280 --> 01:38:58,000
Speaker 2: Yes? Uh?

1690
01:38:58,120 --> 01:39:00,680
Speaker 3: No I went to I just went to the to

1691
01:39:00,720 --> 01:39:02,439
Speaker 3: the final four when they when they got to the

1692
01:39:02,479 --> 01:39:06,519
Speaker 3: final four, I made it my business to be a

1693
01:39:06,520 --> 01:39:06,960
Speaker 3: part of that.

Speaker 2: Yeah, I feel like you went.

1712
01:39:58,800 --> 01:40:01,960
Speaker 1: But now that I'm now, my recollection is except for

1713
01:40:02,040 --> 01:40:04,200
Speaker 1: we did all the shows, and if we did all

1714
01:40:04,240 --> 01:40:05,920
Speaker 1: the shows together, you would have been gone for some

1715
01:40:06,000 --> 01:40:06,120
Speaker 1: of it.

1716
01:40:06,200 --> 01:40:07,960
Speaker 4: And you had to remember I did the show from

1717
01:40:08,000 --> 01:40:09,120
Speaker 4: Houston last year.

1718
01:40:09,280 --> 01:40:12,920
Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, because the Final four is Saturday Monday, so

1719
01:40:13,000 --> 01:40:14,720
Speaker 1: we did Sunday night together.

1720
01:40:15,080 --> 01:40:18,479
Speaker 2: With you in Houston. Yep, that is correct. There you go.

1721
01:40:18,520 --> 01:40:20,320
Speaker 1: By the way, speaking of Houston, I need to send

1722
01:40:20,320 --> 01:40:23,160
Speaker 1: out a big apology to old time basketball fans because

1723
01:40:23,560 --> 01:40:26,559
Speaker 1: I misspoke earlier and I knew the second I did it,

1724
01:40:26,600 --> 01:40:28,360
Speaker 1: and I've gotten some tweets about it, and I think

1725
01:40:28,439 --> 01:40:30,920
Speaker 1: I when we were talking about when Houston used to

1726
01:40:30,920 --> 01:40:33,600
Speaker 1: be good, and I believe I made the statement that

1727
01:40:33,720 --> 01:40:36,720
Speaker 1: Ralph Sampson went there and he very much went to Virginia,

1728
01:40:36,760 --> 01:40:40,120
Speaker 1: and I knew that, but Houston did used to be

1729
01:40:40,240 --> 01:40:43,400
Speaker 1: a power. I mean the most famous moment being that

1730
01:40:44,840 --> 01:40:49,600
Speaker 1: Jim Valvano's championship. Oh yeah right, the big upset was

1731
01:40:49,880 --> 01:40:53,519
Speaker 1: against Houston fifty four to fifty two. That was back

1732
01:40:53,560 --> 01:41:04,919
Speaker 1: in nineteen eighty three. Yeah, forty years plot ago. Houston

1733
01:41:05,040 --> 01:41:08,200
Speaker 1: back up by nine with about thirteen and a half

1734
01:41:08,240 --> 01:41:12,719
Speaker 1: to go in that basketball game as well. And so yeah,

1735

1849
01:47:13,120 --> 01:47:17,680
Speaker 9: four overtimes. Last season. Oh gosh, hello, so they're going

1850
01:47:17,760 --> 01:47:19,240
Speaker 9: to be facing each other this week.

1851
01:47:20,880 --> 01:47:22,679
Speaker 1: There have been I feel like we've had a lot

1852
01:47:22,720 --> 01:47:25,960
Speaker 1: of these already in this tournament. I stayed up not late,

1853
01:47:26,000 --> 01:47:29,200
Speaker 1: but I mean relatively late. We were up watching that

1854
01:47:29,280 --> 01:47:30,360
Speaker 1: Creton Oregon.

1855
01:47:30,040 --> 01:47:33,559
Speaker 2: Game last night. Oh it's a fantastic basketball game.

1856
01:47:33,680 --> 01:47:37,519
Speaker 9: Even the Northwestern Day game on Friday, didn't they wind

1857
01:47:37,600 --> 01:47:40,839
Speaker 9: up going with Florida Atlantic. I wound up going overtime,

1858
01:47:40,880 --> 01:47:43,400
Speaker 9: and then the Florida Atlantic coach left for Michigan. For

1859
01:47:43,439 --> 01:47:46,080
Speaker 9: those who are unaware, Michigan has a new basketball coach.

1860
01:47:46,439 --> 01:47:49,960
Speaker 1: I'm always I'm always hesitant whenever somebody does that. They

1861
01:47:50,000 --> 01:47:51,599
Speaker 1: go on a little bit of a run in the tournament.

1862
01:47:51,640 --> 01:47:54,640
Speaker 1: Next thing you know, they're hired away. And it just

1863
01:47:54,760 --> 01:47:57,680
Speaker 1: like that's how USC got Andy Enfield. Same type of

1864
01:47:57,680 --> 01:48:01,360
Speaker 1: a thing, Yes, Gulf Coast right, It's like, gosh, I mean,

1865
01:48:01,479 --> 01:48:03,400
Speaker 1: is that really all it takes? Like I get it,

1866
01:48:03,439 --> 01:48:05,439
Speaker 1: you're and I know there's more to it than that,

1867
01:48:05,640 --> 01:48:07,679
Speaker 1: But you're at kind of a mid major school.

1868
01:48:07,720 --> 01:48:11,040
Speaker 2: You win two games, three games.

1869
01:48:11,400 --> 01:48:13,840
Speaker 9: Remember Dan Monts in Long Beach State, who was let

1870
01:48:13,880 --> 01:48:16,120
Speaker 9: go right before the Big West Tournament, as we talked

1871
01:48:16,120 --> 01:48:18,559
Speaker 9: about last weekend, and then oh wait a minute, we're

1872
01:48:18,600 --> 01:48:21,439
Speaker 9: still alive. You're still coaching. We asked you to finish

1873
01:48:21,520 --> 01:48:23,679
Speaker 9: out the season. We didn't know you'd still be playing. Yeah,

1874
01:48:23,680 --> 01:48:26,360
Speaker 9: he was actually in the NCAA tournament. Now he's out

1875
01:48:26,400 --> 01:48:28,720
Speaker 9: as Long Beach State head coach. But remember twenty five

1876
01:48:28,760 --> 01:48:31,599
Speaker 9: years ago, he, not Mark Feugh, was the guy that

1877
01:48:31,680 --> 01:48:34,439
Speaker 9: got Gonzaga on a run, right, and quickly he went

1878
01:48:34,520 --> 01:48:36,920
Speaker 9: with the big contract to the Big ten in Minnesota.

1879
01:48:37,479 --> 01:48:37,839
Speaker 4: Yeah.

1880
01:48:37,880 --> 01:48:41,320
Speaker 1: Perfect, Look at see. Now, that's that's what I'm talking about, Steve.

1881
01:48:42,160 --> 01:48:43,360
Speaker 1: That's what I'm talking.

1882
01:48:43,160 --> 01:48:45,479
Speaker 9: See what happens when you're not distracted.

1883
01:48:47,560 --> 01:48:49,800
Speaker 3: Steve, You're brilliant, man. Whenever you want to step on

1884
01:48:49,920 --> 01:48:51,479
Speaker 3: in here, man, you can step on in you.

1885
01:48:51,720 --> 01:48:53,680
Speaker 9: It takes lead up to twenty four to twelve. They

1886
01:48:53,800 --> 01:48:55,080
Speaker 9: doubled the score on him.

1887
01:48:55,120 --> 01:48:57,679
Speaker 2: Come on, that's and that's give me my rule.

1888
01:48:58,000 --> 01:49:00,160
Speaker 1: That's gonna be my rule till eight o'clock. If the

1889
01:49:00,160 --> 01:49:02,920
Speaker 1: Aztecs are up by double digits, you have to talk.

1890
01:49:03,000 --> 01:49:03,840
Speaker 4: Okay, I'm talking.

1891
01:49:03,920 --> 01:49:04,240
Speaker 9: That's fair.

1892
01:49:04,320 --> 01:49:06,440
Speaker 4: Okay, that's good, that's a good compromise.

1893
01:49:06,640 --> 01:49:09,639
Speaker 1: Right, Yes, god it Yale just put a three ball

1894
01:49:09,680 --> 01:49:11,360
Speaker 1: in the air and I was terrified it was gonna go.

1895
01:49:11,439 --> 01:49:15,040
Speaker 1: Like no, I'm like our crop are up by nine again.

1896
01:49:15,120 --> 01:49:19,559
Speaker 4: Look, look how great is this we get to to Look,

1897

1905
01:49:43,640 --> 01:49:47,559
Speaker 3: our teams, we love our teams. I'm a Laker guy,

1906
01:49:48,240 --> 01:49:51,000
Speaker 3: and you know, of course San Diego State. I played

1907
01:49:51,000 --> 01:49:55,800
Speaker 3: football and basketball there, so you know this. It's just

1908
01:49:55,840 --> 01:49:57,640
Speaker 3: who we are. You guys get to be on this

1909
01:49:57,760 --> 01:49:58,880
Speaker 3: ride with us.

1910
01:49:58,880 --> 01:50:02,040
Speaker 9: And can I mentioned Sandy Diego State and literally nobody

1911
01:50:02,120 --> 01:50:05,599
Speaker 9: will ever remember this now that they're advancing in the tournament.

1912
01:50:05,720 --> 01:50:09,280
Speaker 9: San Diego State finished fifth place in the Mountain West. Yeah,

1913
01:50:09,360 --> 01:50:11,880
Speaker 9: you mentioned the number of teams that they had go

1914
01:50:11,960 --> 01:50:15,080
Speaker 9: to the NCAA Tournament. Utah State was the story of

1915
01:50:15,120 --> 01:50:18,120
Speaker 9: the Mountain West this year. They were alone in first

1916
01:50:18,160 --> 01:50:21,639
Speaker 9: place at the end of the season. New coach, new roster,

1917
01:50:22,360 --> 01:50:24,760
Speaker 9: and they lost by about forty you produe to this.

1918
01:50:25,520 --> 01:50:27,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, I wanted them.

1919
01:50:27,320 --> 01:50:29,599
Speaker 1: I wanted them to give Purdue a run for their minds,

1920
01:50:29,720 --> 01:50:31,280
Speaker 1: so they did for about four minutes.

1921
01:50:31,400 --> 01:50:37,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, but Zach Edy man like, yeah, he's just too big, man.

1922
01:50:37,400 --> 01:50:40,920
Speaker 9: It's one of my favorite stats that I wish all

1923
01:50:40,960 --> 01:50:45,120
Speaker 9: sports where personal fouls are kept that they kept this foul,

1924
01:50:45,240 --> 01:50:48,439
Speaker 9: because there's such a thing as foul suffered in soccer

1925
01:50:48,720 --> 01:50:51,439
Speaker 9: where you found out like how much leoel Messi gets

1926
01:50:51,520 --> 01:50:54,760
Speaker 9: kicked and tripped and all of that. Zach Edy drew

1927
01:50:54,920 --> 01:50:58,479
Speaker 9: seven fouls in the first half against Junsah State. They

1928
01:50:58,560 --> 01:51:01,679
Speaker 9: had no and they didn't have to foul him. Look,

1929
01:51:01,720 --> 01:51:04,400
Speaker 9: he's gonna get the hook shot and don't foun him'll

1930
01:51:04,400 --> 01:51:06,479
Speaker 9: put him on the line. It's like Utah trying to

1931
01:51:06,520 --> 01:51:10,679
Speaker 9: guard Shack years ago. Okay, I six, he's got six.

1932
01:51:11,400 --> 01:51:15,200
Speaker 1: Oh, man, I remember that years ago, sitting there at

1933
01:51:15,240 --> 01:51:19,919
Speaker 1: Staples Center and watching NBA players hanging on Shock's arms

1934
01:51:20,400 --> 01:51:22,880
Speaker 1: the way kids do their parents at the airport.

1935
01:51:23,320 --> 01:51:26,240
Speaker 9: It's just like, oh my god, campers with Cam Newton.

1936
01:51:26,720 --> 01:51:31,559
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're very good, Steve, very good, funny.

1937
01:51:32,560 --> 01:51:35,960
Speaker 1: All right, great stuff, Steve, thank you, thank you for

1938
01:51:36,040 --> 01:51:40,800
Speaker 1: dragging us through that that last ten minutes, we appreciated

1939
01:51:40,920 --> 01:51:44,920
Speaker 1: so much, and we've got more to say on March

1940
01:51:45,000 --> 01:51:48,719
Speaker 1: madness and more. Ephromcast coming up in just a second.

1941
01:51:48,720 --> 01:51:50,559
Speaker 1: And he has to keep talking because every time he

1942
01:51:50,640 --> 01:51:53,439
Speaker 1: does that, that means San Diego State just scored, and

1943
01:51:53,479 --> 01:51:56,479
Speaker 1: they did again, and they're up by sixteen. So it's

1944
01:51:56,479 --> 01:52:00,000
Speaker 1: a very happy Ephraim here on Fox Sports Radio. All right,

1945
01:52:00,120 --> 01:52:07,200
Speaker 1: Ti Rag dot com Studios. I'm so excited. I'm it's

1946
01:52:07,240 --> 01:52:11,320
Speaker 1: almost like, uh, when someone gives you a gift, but

1947
01:52:11,320 --> 01:52:14,719
Speaker 1: but there's no holiday. Like I didn't know this was coming.

1948
01:52:16,320 --> 01:52:19,640
Speaker 1: I didn't realize that we would still be able to

1949
01:52:19,760 --> 01:52:24,360
Speaker 1: utilize the dulcent tones of one e from salam here.

1950
01:52:25,640 --> 01:52:27,880
Speaker 2: In this seven o'clock Pacific time hour.

1951
01:52:27,920 --> 01:52:30,400
Speaker 1: But now that San Diego State has already up double digits,

1952
01:52:31,880 --> 01:52:33,360
Speaker 1: I figure you could put your feet up and we

1953
01:52:33,400 --> 01:52:34,280
Speaker 1: could have a conversation.

1954
01:52:34,400 --> 01:52:35,880
Speaker 4: I'm watching the Laker game as well.

1955
01:52:41,360 --> 01:52:45,880
Speaker 2: What are they are they down one? I don't know.

1956
01:52:46,160 --> 01:52:48,360
Speaker 2: I'm not in a multi TV room right now.

1957
01:52:49,120 --> 01:52:51,559
Speaker 4: You've got to upgrade your situation. They're down for.

1958
01:52:53,280 --> 01:52:59,000
Speaker 2: Ye, that's terrifying. Uh, They're actually they're down six.

1959
01:53:01,920 --> 01:53:06,760
Speaker 1: Late first quarter at home to the Indiana Pacers with uh,

1960
01:53:07,520 --> 01:53:11,360
Speaker 1: nothing on the line, I would argue that the Lakers

1961
01:53:11,400 --> 01:53:14,599
Speaker 1: are going to be the nine seed. That's that's pretty

1962
01:53:14,680 --> 01:53:15,439
Speaker 1: much a done deal.

1963
01:53:16,400 --> 01:53:17,280
Speaker 2: Do you not agree with that?

1964
01:53:17,439 --> 01:53:21,040

1967
01:53:24,479 --> 01:53:27,040
Speaker 1: ground in the NBA?

1968
01:53:28,160 --> 01:53:30,439
Speaker 2: Do you hard in the NBA?

01:53:30,720 --> 01:53:31,040

01:54:57,440 --> 01:55:00,160
Speaker 1: Yeah? Whatever, No, you has text. By the way, hey,

2002
01:55:00,160 --> 01:55:02,880
Speaker 1: they've already scored enough. That's like their entire first half,

2003
01:55:02,880 --> 01:55:05,440
Speaker 1: a lot of the points. What happened to the Aztecs

2004
01:55:05,440 --> 01:55:07,360
Speaker 1: team that will beat you fifty two to fifty?

2005

01:55:15,360 --> 01:55:16,880
Speaker 3: presence with Jayden Ladee.

2009
01:55:17,920 --> 01:55:18,200
Speaker 4: Uh.

2010
01:55:18,840 --> 01:55:23,120
Speaker 3: Previous years it was very guard heavy in terms of

2011
01:55:23,160 --> 01:55:26,840
Speaker 3: scoring and defense heavy in terms of your bigs. But

2012
01:55:26,920 --> 01:55:28,440
Speaker 3: now you have a guy you could just dump the

2013
01:55:28,440 --> 01:55:33,600
Speaker 3: ball down to and he can get busy. He's hitting

2014
01:55:33,600 --> 01:55:36,120
Speaker 3: threes tonight. He's also hitting threes.

2015
01:55:36,200 --> 01:55:38,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, he can hit. No, No, his inside outside game is

2016
01:55:38,240 --> 01:55:38,880
Speaker 4: is I.

2017
01:55:38,840 --> 01:55:40,600
Speaker 2: Know he is. I know, I know what he can do.

2018
01:55:40,720 --> 01:55:43,040
Speaker 1: I just mean that what like he hit back to

2019
01:55:43,080 --> 01:55:45,400
Speaker 1: back threes earlier in this game, and that's what kind

2020
01:55:45,400 --> 01:55:48,880
Speaker 1: of that's what that's what gave them this this push

2021
01:55:48,920 --> 01:55:50,680
Speaker 1: to be like instead of just like, oh, we're up

2022
01:55:50,680 --> 01:55:53,600
Speaker 1: five or whatever, it was like bang, double digit viti,

01:56:14,680 --> 01:56:18,000
Speaker 3: you'd be right at home watching them play.

2031
01:56:18,040 --> 01:56:20,920
Speaker 1: Did you refresh my memory because we were doing this

2032
01:56:20,960 --> 01:56:22,200

2039
01:56:37,480 --> 01:56:38,000
Speaker 3: a part of that.

2040
01:56:40,920 --> 01:56:43,920

2049
01:57:04,520 --> 01:57:06,920
Speaker 3: got there was like spired airlines or something like that.

2050
01:57:07,000 --> 01:57:11,280
Speaker 3: And I'm like, well that was like, I'm not doing that.

2051
01:57:11,280 --> 01:57:12,320

2056
01:57:19,400 --> 01:57:23,040

Speaker 2: Yeah, I feel like you went.

2058
01:57:29,880 --> 01:57:33,000
Speaker 1: But now that I'm now, my recollection is except for

2059
01:57:33,080 --> 01:57:35,280
Speaker 1: we did all the shows, and if we did all

2060
01:57:35,280 --> 01:57:37,000
Speaker 1: the shows together, you would have been going for some

2061
01:57:37,040 --> 01:57:37,200
Speaker 1: of it.

2062
01:57:37,240 --> 01:57:39,040
Speaker 4: And you got to remember I did the show from

2063
01:57:39,040 --> 01:57:40,800
Speaker 4: Houston last year, right.

2064
01:57:40,800 --> 01:57:43,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, because it because the final four is Saturday Monday,

2065
01:57:43,880 --> 01:57:45,760
Speaker 1: so we did Sunday night together.

2066
01:57:46,120 --> 01:57:49,520
Speaker 2: With you in Houstone. That is correct. There you go.

2067
01:57:49,560 --> 01:57:51,360
Speaker 1: By the way, speaking of Houston, I need to send

2068
01:57:51,360 --> 01:57:54,200
Speaker 1: out a big apology to old time basketball fans because

2069
01:57:54,600 --> 01:57:57,600
Speaker 1: I misspoke earlier, and I knew the second I did it,

2070
01:57:57,640 --> 01:57:59,440
Speaker 1: and I've gotten some tweets about it, and I think

2071
01:57:59,480 --> 01:58:01,960
Speaker 1: I when we were talking about when Houston used to

2072
01:58:02,000 --> 01:58:04,680
Speaker 1: be good, and I believe I made the statement that

2073
01:58:04,760 --> 01:58:06,960
Speaker 1: Ralph Sampson went there and he very much went to

2074
01:58:07,040 --> 01:58:11,080
Speaker 1: Virginia and I knew that. But Houston did used to

2075
01:58:11,160 --> 01:58:14,240
Speaker 1: be a power. I mean, the most famous moment being

2076
01:58:14,280 --> 01:58:20,400
Speaker 1: that Jim Valvano's championship. Oh yeah, right, the big upset

2077
01:58:20,560 --> 01:58:23,760
Speaker 1: was against Houston fifty four to fifty two. That was

2078
01:58:24,360 --> 01:58:31,640
Speaker 1: back in nineteen eighty three. Yeah, forty years plus ago.

2079
01:58:35,520 --> 01:58:38,920
Speaker 1: Houston back up by nine with about thirteen and a

2080
01:58:38,960 --> 01:58:42,960
Speaker 1: half to go in that basketball game as well. And

2081
01:58:43,320 --> 01:58:46,320

02:03:56,640 --> 02:03:59,000
Speaker 1: Back to you, all right, First of all, Steve, what

2181
02:03:59,040 --> 02:04:01,000
Speaker 1: do you have against rent I.

2182
02:04:00,960 --> 02:04:01,480

Speaker 9: I'm just saying they have no pull, Okay, And that's

2184
02:04:05,160 --> 02:04:07,520
Speaker 9: part of the reason mister Megabuck's owner said we got

Speaker 9: to get our own place.

2186
02:04:09,320 --> 02:04:12,960
Speaker 1: And second of all, Steve, are you sure that that's

2187
02:04:13,000 --> 02:04:13,920
Speaker 1: all you have to say?

2188
02:04:15,400 --> 02:04:19,040
Speaker 9: Well, we could review the entire postseason of the Aztecs

2189
02:04:19,040 --> 02:04:21,480
Speaker 9: from last year because they did, as you recall, play

2190
02:04:21,640 --> 02:04:24,000
Speaker 9: Alabama at one point.

2191
02:04:24,240 --> 02:04:26,800
Speaker 2: Let's let's go play ball play and review all of it.

2192
02:04:27,640 --> 02:04:30,120
Speaker 9: Actually, the best thing I found out about Alabama tonight,

2193
02:04:30,160 --> 02:04:32,680
Speaker 9: I did not realize here I mentioned it's Alabama against

2194
02:04:32,680 --> 02:04:36,240
Speaker 9: North Carolina this coming week in the Sweet sixteen. Last season,

2195
02:04:36,720 --> 02:04:39,760
Speaker 9: they played each other in that early season tournament that

2196
02:04:39,840 --> 02:04:44,000
Speaker 9: Nike holds in Portland. Alabama beat the tar Heels in

2197
02:04:44,160 --> 02:04:48,720
Speaker 9: four overtimes last season. Oh gosh, hello, So they're going

2198
02:04:48,800 --> 02:04:50,320
Speaker 9: to be facing each other this week.

2199
02:04:51,920 --> 02:04:53,760
Speaker 1: There have been I feel like we've had a lot

2200
02:04:53,760 --> 02:04:57,000
Speaker 1: of these already in this tournament. I stayed up not late,

2201
02:04:57,040 --> 02:05:00,640
Speaker 1: but I mean relatively late. We were up in that Creton,

2202
02:05:00,680 --> 02:05:04,640
Speaker 1: Oregon game last night. Oh, it's a fantastic basketball game.

2203
02:05:04,720 --> 02:05:08,560
Speaker 9: Even the Northwestern Day game on Friday, didn't they wind

2204
02:05:08,640 --> 02:05:11,919
Speaker 9: up going with Florida Atlantic. I wound up going overtime,

2205
02:05:11,960 --> 02:05:14,480
Speaker 9: and then the Florida Atlantic coach left for Michigan. For

2206
02:05:14,520 --> 02:05:17,320
Speaker 9: those who are aware, Michigan has a new basketball coach.

2207
02:05:17,520 --> 02:05:21,040
Speaker 1: I'm always I'm always hesitant whenever somebody does that. They

2208
02:05:21,040 --> 02:05:22,640
Speaker 1: go on a little bit of a run in the tournament,

2209
02:05:22,680 --> 02:05:25,680
Speaker 1: next thing you know, they're hired away. And it just

2210
02:05:25,840 --> 02:05:28,720
Speaker 1: like that's how USC got Andy Enfield. Same type of

2211
02:05:28,720 --> 02:05:29,080
Speaker 1: a thing.

2212
02:05:29,160 --> 02:05:30,040
Speaker 9: Yes, golf coach.

2213
02:05:30,680 --> 02:05:33,280
Speaker 2: Right, It's like, gosh, I mean, is that really all

2214
02:05:33,320 --> 02:05:33,800
Speaker 2: that takes?

2215
02:05:33,840 --> 02:05:35,920
Speaker 1: Like I get it, you're and I know there's more

2216
02:05:35,960 --> 02:05:37,840
Speaker 1: to it than that, but you're at kind of a

2217
02:05:37,880 --> 02:05:38,720
Speaker 1: mid major school.

2218
02:05:38,760 --> 02:05:41,280
Speaker 2: You win two games, three games.

2219
02:05:41,760 --> 02:05:44,480
Speaker 9: Monts remember Dan Monts in Long Beach State, who was

2220
02:05:44,680 --> 02:05:46,920
Speaker 9: let go right before the Big West Tournament. As we

2221
02:05:46,960 --> 02:05:49,440
Speaker 9: talked about last weekend, and then, oh wait a minute,

2222
02:05:49,480 --> 02:05:52,240
Speaker 9: we're still alive. You're still coaching. We asked you to

2223
02:05:52,240 --> 02:05:54,720
Speaker 9: finish out the season. We didn't know you'd still be playing. Yeah,

2224
02:05:54,720 --> 02:05:57,400
Speaker 9: he was actually in the NCAA tournament. Now he's out

2225
02:05:57,440 --> 02:05:59,680
Speaker 9: as Long Beach State head coach. But remember twenty five

2226
02:05:59,760 --> 02:06:02,640
Speaker 9: years ago, he, not Mark Feugh, was the guy that

2227
02:06:02,760 --> 02:06:05,480
Speaker 9: got Gonzaga on a run, right, and quickly he went

2228
02:06:05,560 --> 02:06:07,960
Speaker 9: with the big contract to the Big Ten in Minnesota.

2229
02:06:08,520 --> 02:06:11,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, perfect, looking at see Now, that's that's what I'm

Speaker 2: That's what I'm talking.

2232
02:06:14,200 --> 02:06:16,520
Speaker 9: See what happens when you're not distracted.

Speaker 3: in here, man, you can step on in the.

2235
02:06:22,680 --> 02:06:24,720
Speaker 9: Flat takes lead up to twenty four to twelve. They

2236
02:06:24,840 --> 02:06:26,160
Speaker 9: doubled the score on him.

2237
02:06:26,160 --> 02:06:28,720
Speaker 2: Come on, man, that's and that's gonna be my rule.

2238
02:06:29,040 --> 02:06:31,160
Speaker 1: That's gonna be my rule till eight o'clock. If the

2239
02:06:31,200 --> 02:06:33,960
Speaker 1: Aztecs are up by double digits, you have to talk.

2240
02:06:34,040 --> 02:06:34,880
Speaker 4: Okay, I'm talking.

2241
02:06:34,960 --> 02:06:35,320
Speaker 9: It's fair.

2242
02:06:35,400 --> 02:06:38,840
Speaker 4: Okay, that's good. That's a good compromise, right, yes.

2243
02:06:39,080 --> 02:06:40,880
Speaker 1: God it Yale just put a three ball in the

2244

Speaker 9: nobody will ever remember this now that they're advancing in

2261
02:07:36,120 --> 02:07:39,120
Speaker 9: the tournament. San Diego State finished fifth place in the

2262
02:07:39,160 --> 02:07:42,360
Speaker 9: Mountain West. Yeah, you mentioned the number of teams that

2263
02:07:42,400 --> 02:07:45,600
Speaker 9: they had go to the NCAA Tournament. Utah State was

2264
02:07:45,640 --> 02:07:47,760
Speaker 9: the story of the Mountain West this year. They were

2265
02:07:47,960 --> 02:07:50,920
Speaker 9: alone in first place at the end of the season.

2266
02:07:51,320 --> 02:07:54,920

2267
02:07:55,120 --> 02:07:55,800
Speaker 9: You produed to.

2268
02:07:55,760 --> 02:07:59,080
Speaker 1: This, Yeah, I want I wanted them. I wanted them

2269
02:07:59,120 --> 02:08:01,080
Speaker 1: to give Purdue a right for their minds. So they

2270
02:08:01,080 --> 02:08:02,360
Speaker 1: did for about four minutes.

2271
02:08:02,440 --> 02:08:07,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, but Zach Edie man like, yeah, he's he's just

2272
02:08:07,520 --> 02:08:08,280
Speaker 3: too big, man.

2273
02:08:08,440 --> 02:08:11,960
Speaker 9: It's one of my favorite stats that I wish all

2274
02:08:12,000 --> 02:08:15,600
Speaker 9: sports that where personal fouls are kept, that they kept

2275
02:08:15,640 --> 02:08:18,680
Speaker 9: this foul because there's such a thing as fouls suffered

2276
02:08:18,880 --> 02:08:21,880
Speaker 9: in soccer where you found out like how much leoel

2277
02:08:21,920 --> 02:08:25,080
Speaker 9: Messi gets kicked and tripped and all of that. Zach

2278
02:08:25,280 --> 02:08:28,800
Speaker 9: Edie drew seven fouls in the first half against June's Estate.

2279
02:08:29,360 --> 02:08:32,720
Speaker 4: They had no and they didn't have to foul him. Look,

2280
02:08:32,760 --> 02:08:35,320
Speaker 4: he's gonna get the hook shot and don't foul him.

2281
02:08:35,440 --> 02:08:36,160
Speaker 4: Put him on the line.

2282
02:08:36,200 --> 02:08:39,160
Speaker 9: It's like Utah trying to guard Shack years ago. Okay,

2283
02:08:40,200 --> 02:08:41,760
Speaker 9: got six. He's got six.

2284
02:08:42,440 --> 02:08:46,280
Speaker 1: Oh man, I remember that years ago, sitting there at

2285
02:08:46,280 --> 02:08:50,960
Speaker 1: Staples Center and watching NBA players hanging on Shock's arms

2286
02:08:51,440 --> 02:08:53,920
Speaker 1: the way kids do their parents at the airport.

2287
02:08:54,360 --> 02:08:56,280
Speaker 2: It's just like, oh my god.

2288
02:08:56,120 --> 02:08:57,320
Speaker 9: Campers with Cam Newton.

Speaker 1: ten minutes. We appreciate it so much. And we've got

2292
02:09:14,960 --> 02:09:18,720
Speaker 1: more to say on March madness and more. Ephraimcast coming

2293
02:09:18,840 --> 02:09:20,480
