00:00:32,120 --> 00:00:37,080
Speaker 1: with my bes friend Mike Harmon. For over forty years,

11
00:00:37,120 --> 00:00:39,440
Speaker 1: Tirerack's been uping customers find the right tires or how,

12
00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:42,400
Speaker 1: what and where they drive. Shipped fast and free backed

Speaker 1: by free Road, has a protection with convenient installation options

14
00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:47,040
Speaker 1: like mobile tire installation.

15
00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:51,879
Speaker 3: Tirerac dot Com is the way tire buying should be.

16
00:00:53,080 --> 00:00:57,000
Speaker 3: So right now, one out, bottom of the ninth.

17
00:00:56,760 --> 00:01:02,480
Speaker 1: Inning, Mason Miller in throwing BB's for TUSA. United States

18
00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:05,600
Speaker 1: is two outs away from heading on to the semi

19
00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:08,839
Speaker 1: finals of the World Baseball Classic. They lead Canada five

20
00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:11,559
Speaker 1: to three. Was a five to nothing game. It looked

21
00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:15,720
Speaker 1: like the United States was gonna cruise. Then bullpen a

22
00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:18,880
Speaker 1: couple of home runs later, Suddenly it's five to three,

23
00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:21,080
Speaker 1: and then David Bednar has to work out of a

24
00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:25,080
Speaker 1: nobody out runners at second and third jam in the

25
00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:29,039
Speaker 1: seventh inning to preserve the five to three lead. And

26
00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:31,000
Speaker 1: here's Miller in now to try to close it out

27
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:33,880
Speaker 1: for Team USA. If they win, they will face Dominican Republic,

28
00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:37,280
Speaker 1: who won tonight thirty seven nothing over Korea in a

29
00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:40,240
Speaker 1: game that went one and a half innings. The mercy

30
00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:43,480
Speaker 1: rule in effect, so things will only get harder for

31
00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:45,680
Speaker 1: the United States from here on out as long as

32
00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:47,039
Speaker 1: they get the last two outs here in the.

33
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:49,840
Speaker 4: Ninth Yeah, just absolute chaos. As he's coming in at

34
00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:52,320
Speaker 4: one hundred and two miles per hour. You think that's juiced?

35
00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:56,840
Speaker 3: Ooh, man, I don't have him the dar gun. I

36
00:01:56,840 --> 00:01:57,160
Speaker 3: don't know.

37
00:01:57,200 --> 00:02:00,200
Speaker 1: Man, you come in ninth inning, WBC and all I

38
00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:01,800
Speaker 1: think you're going to get a couple extra miles an

39
00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:02,920
Speaker 1: hour on that fast.

40
00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:06,240
Speaker 4: Flat bill hat and getting after it. Yeah, because he's

41
00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:11,040
Speaker 4: bringing the heat. Yeah, Julian just stood and watched. That

42
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:14,040
Speaker 4: had to be even higher, right, that's like Charlie Sheen

43
00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:17,560
Speaker 4: in Major League And how high did he hit?

44
00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:22,239
Speaker 5: Look back? Yeah, it was one hundred and five hundred.

45
00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:24,760
Speaker 1: Two mile an hour fastball one hundred and two mile

46
00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:28,280
Speaker 1: an hour fastball from Mason Miller on the inside corner

47
00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:33,079
Speaker 1: for a strikeout. Julian just had just look back and going,

48
00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:34,239
Speaker 1: you sure there was a strike.

49
00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:34,880
Speaker 2: I didn't see it.

50
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:37,760
Speaker 5: That was framed really well, let's put it that way.

51
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:40,840
Speaker 1: But and you know what I do like now is

52
00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:43,240
Speaker 1: that because you know, we didn't know with all the

53
00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:46,040
Speaker 1: abs situation and the you know what we're going obviously,

54
00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:48,119
Speaker 1: that's more for the for the this year in Major

55
00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:51,120
Speaker 1: League Baseball, and I think what Cebe Buckner had, like

56
00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:54,440
Speaker 1: three ball strike calls get reversed yesterday.

57
00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:56,000
Speaker 3: And uh in Great Food League.

58
00:02:56,800 --> 00:02:59,679
Speaker 1: But I like the fact that they're still showing the

59
00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:02,040
Speaker 1: even though, hey, we go back and look at it,

60
00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:03,840
Speaker 1: because there is a big question mark whether or not

61
00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:05,200
Speaker 1: how much we're going to see the box, how much

62
00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:07,440
Speaker 1: we're going to see different things over the course of

63
00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:10,600
Speaker 1: the of the year because of the replay system in

64
00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:12,919
Speaker 1: Major League Baseball. But I'd just like the fact that

65
00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:14,720
Speaker 1: we're continuing to see it here and that pitch right

66
00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:16,880
Speaker 1: on the corner, man, that was that was some kind

67
00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:18,040
Speaker 1: of pitch by Mason Miller. Man.

68
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:20,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think eventually you can wean us off the box,

69
00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:22,560
Speaker 4: but for now, I mean we still need it. It's

70
00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:25,919
Speaker 4: a visual guide and makes us feel smarter or smarter

71
00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:26,760
Speaker 4: about what we've seen.

72
00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:29,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I like it on the I don't

73
00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:32,240
Speaker 1: know how much I like it regularly, but I like

74
00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 1: it on the replay, like it's still something when they

75
00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:37,520
Speaker 1: show it, when when it's live is a thing. But

76
00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:39,800
Speaker 1: when it's on the replay, Yeah, no, I'm okay with

77
00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:41,200
Speaker 1: on the replay. Let me see where it is here

78
00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:42,200
Speaker 1: on the replay and.

79
00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:45,920
Speaker 4: It'll bring out Margot Robbie and she explains it to

80
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:47,760
Speaker 4: us from a bathtub with sure.

81
00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:51,720
Speaker 1: Meanwhile, no replay needed. The final out of the game

82
00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:56,440
Speaker 1: a strikeout. Swinging Mason Miller throws a curve that gets

83
00:03:56,480 --> 00:04:00,280
Speaker 1: the strikeout, so it's over. The United States will face

84
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:04,640
Speaker 1: Dominican Republic in the semifinal Sunday night, eight o'clock. Logan

85
00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:06,840
Speaker 1: Web gets the win. He is now two and zero

86
00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:10,160
Speaker 1: in WBC play. You assume he has done he will

87
00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:12,960
Speaker 1: not pitch a Getty through seventy one pitches. Tonight, Team

88
00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:16,520
Speaker 1: USA beats Canada. It doesn't get easier. Dominican Republic and

89
00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:20,960
Speaker 1: that lineup is just absolutely incredible. Every game now from

90
00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:24,080
Speaker 1: here on out, it's a most of the games the

91
00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:26,240
Speaker 1: United States obviously you must see. But man, I'll tell

92
00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:28,840
Speaker 1: you what United States Dominican Republic that that's gonna look

93
00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:30,479
Speaker 1: like a bleep and All Star game. Man, you see

94
00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:33,480
Speaker 1: you kidding these lineups, it's gonna look insane.

95
00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:38,760
Speaker 4: Sunday on Fox. Get your selection Sunday stuff in early

96

98
00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:49,520
Speaker 4: the US on Fox and with the dulcon tones of

99
00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:53,280
Speaker 4: Steve Desager here from the news desk. So all of that,

100
00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:57,200
Speaker 4: just look, it's a matchup you love, right, I mean,

101
00:04:57,240 --> 00:04:59,719
Speaker 4: a lot of lot of history here, a lot of

102
00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:04,080
Speaker 4: heavyweight players. No question about Clayton Kershaw's done though. He

103
00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:06,719
Speaker 4: actually got a beer a couple of innings ago. They flip, yeah,

104
00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:08,039
Speaker 4: that's yeah.

105
00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:10,440
Speaker 1: I mean, let's let's let the United States wins and

106
00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:13,880
Speaker 1: let's spend a couple of minutes here, teaj let's pour

107
00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:19,000
Speaker 1: one out for Clayton Kershaw as his baseball career most

108
00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:21,159
Speaker 1: likely now is over.

109
00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:24,120
Speaker 3: And I'm gonna continue to ask why did he do this?

110
00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:24,720
Speaker 4: Uh?

111
00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:28,960
Speaker 1: Kershaw being replaced on the roster following this game. It

112
00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:30,960
Speaker 1: was a decision that was made going into this and

113
00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:34,120
Speaker 1: Mark de Ross was making it, and Kershaw knew, Hey, okay,

114
00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:36,600
Speaker 1: you know I'm here. I'm available if you need me.

115
00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:38,880
Speaker 1: And here he is, coming in from the bullpen one

116
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:41,960
Speaker 1: last time. I believe I'm watching Clayton Kershaw walk off

117
00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:43,919
Speaker 1: the field for the final time as a as a

118
00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:47,120
Speaker 1: baseball player. He got a beer in the middle of

119
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:49,080
Speaker 1: the game. Obviously the game was too close. It was

120
00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:51,560
Speaker 1: five to three, Clayton, you're not coming in, so they

121
00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:55,360
Speaker 1: delivered him a beer in the bullpen. So Kershaw got one,

122
00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:58,080
Speaker 1: and now the United States wins, and that's gonna be

123
00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:00,520
Speaker 1: it for Kershaw. That will be the end of his

124
00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:03,640
Speaker 1: illustrious career. The last time we saw him was when

125
00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:06,400
Speaker 1: he warmed up to pitch in the World Baseball Classic.

126
00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:10,320
Speaker 1: Not quite the farewell you'd expect for Clayton Kershaw, but okay,

127
00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:11,960
Speaker 1: he warmed up and almost got in.

128
00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:12,560
Speaker 4: Bye.

129
00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:15,200
Speaker 3: Hey, that's great Clayton Kershaw.

130
00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:18,320
Speaker 4: And then someone realized, hey, we're trying to battle back

131
00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:18,800
Speaker 4: of this game.

132
00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:19,640
Speaker 5: Get Miller up.

133
00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:22,360
Speaker 4: No, this is funny though, because you right, it's five

134
00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:25,920
Speaker 4: nothing at that point, Keller's on the mound, Kershaw and Company.

135
00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:28,640
Speaker 4: They're in the bullpen and he gets someone yells to

136
00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:31,359
Speaker 4: him and he comes through the door. He does the

137
00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:34,719
Speaker 4: old manned little run towards the door. The door opens

138
00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:35,720
Speaker 4: and they flip him a beer.

139
00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:38,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, I like it.

140
00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:41,880
Speaker 1: You know. Here's the thing is that I still I

141
00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:44,200
Speaker 1: want to know why he did this, because it's so

142
00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:48,280
Speaker 1: for a guy of the status of Clayton Kershaw. I

143
00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:50,279
Speaker 1: get that. I want to do this. I want to

144
00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:53,640
Speaker 1: be available for Team USA and I and I understand

145
00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:56,200
Speaker 1: the rationale of well, we don't have to worry about

146
00:06:56,279 --> 00:07:00,840
Speaker 1: him insurance wise because he he's not playing with a

147
00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:02,839
Speaker 1: team have to worry about that. He could just show

148
00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:05,000
Speaker 1: up and we hear he's a break glass in case

149
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:09,080
Speaker 1: emergency pitcher. Okay, I get that, but let but let's

150
00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:11,400
Speaker 1: live in the real world here. Why wouldn't you want

151
00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:14,080
Speaker 1: a guy that you have confidence going to? I mean really,

152
00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:16,120
Speaker 1: why why? Why would why wouldn't you want a guy

153
00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:19,200
Speaker 1: you have confidence going You could find somebody you're paying

154
00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:21,840
Speaker 1: for the insurance of twenty four other guys you could

155
00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:24,760
Speaker 1: pay for the insurance of another picture that maybe you

156
00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:25,920
Speaker 1: want to bring into a game.

157
00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:30,880
Speaker 4: Hey you hear that screeching eagle behind US America humorous

158
00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:36,280
Speaker 4: That roster spot was for Clayton Kershaw. You know, iceball hero,

159
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:38,240
Speaker 4: American hero Texas.

160
00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:40,720
Speaker 3: Why why are you doing that?

161
00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:43,200
Speaker 1: I mean for him to come in and just sit there.

162
00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:47,120
Speaker 1: It's so odd. It's just awkward to end this way. Like, look,

163
00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:49,440
Speaker 1: you don't get to to figure out how you end

164
00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:52,000
Speaker 1: your career, and I get that, but the way he

165
00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:55,400
Speaker 1: went out end of the regular season, pitched really well, right,

166
00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:58,040
Speaker 1: got the big out in the World Series of one

167
00:07:58,040 --> 00:07:59,960
Speaker 1: of the one of the greatest games we have seen.

168
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:03,400
Speaker 1: Uh like that that, Like, you don't get to end

169
00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:05,400
Speaker 1: a lot better than that when you're someone who's at

170
00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:06,880
Speaker 1: the very end when it's like, okay, this is it

171
00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:09,280
Speaker 1: and I can't really get guys out anymore. But you know,

172
00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:12,560
Speaker 1: maybe maybe one batter here and there I could do something. Uh,

173
00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:14,280
Speaker 1: you don't get to end that way, and he did.

174
00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:17,360
Speaker 1: And to come back and just be somebody that yeah,

175
00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:19,640
Speaker 1: I'm a guy on the bench and maybe I'm warming

176
00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:22,280
Speaker 1: up to get in. It's like, wait, what this is?

177
00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:24,400
Speaker 1: This is how it goes for Clayton Kersherw, Like what

178
00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:26,320
Speaker 1: was what was the point to all of this, Like

179
00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:28,240
Speaker 1: what the point for all this was to say, and

180
00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:29,920
Speaker 1: you don't get him, you don't let him pitch it all.

181
00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:31,400
Speaker 3: I mean, like you don't want.

182
00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:35,160
Speaker 5: The blowout game, you know, No, I don't.

183
00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:38,280
Speaker 1: I don't know why there wasn't a situation where he

184
00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:40,560
Speaker 1: couldn't get in the game at all, at least like

185
00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:44,720
Speaker 1: in the in the very first game, Kershaw gets in

186
00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:46,880
Speaker 1: and he and he and he faces the first batter,

187
00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:49,120
Speaker 1: you know, or something like that, because you know, this

188
00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:51,800
Speaker 1: is not suddenly where it's the Olympics, where everything is

189
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:54,320
Speaker 1: ice and tape, and and if I lose a finger,

190
00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:56,240
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get it attached and come back out and

191
00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:58,719
Speaker 1: play in the second period. These are guys who who

192
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:01,680
Speaker 1: in between games or saying someone are saying, yeah, this

193
00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:02,720
Speaker 1: is great, but I can't.

194
00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:04,720
Speaker 3: Get wait, I can't wait to get back to my guys.

195
00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:06,880
Speaker 1: Some guys are saying, hey, this means more to me

196
00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:09,960
Speaker 1: than anything else, right, it means more if I win WBC,

197
00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:13,000
Speaker 1: it's more than winning a championship in baseball. Great, but

198
00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:14,880
Speaker 1: most of the guys are, yeah, this is great, but

199
00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:16,600
Speaker 1: I want to get back to spring training ready for

200
00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:17,080
Speaker 1: the season.

201
00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:18,400
Speaker 3: Like you could have.

202
00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:20,120
Speaker 1: Found a way to at least get him into, you know,

203
00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:22,840
Speaker 1: one batter that's not gonna kill you, you know, one bat.

204
00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:25,120
Speaker 1: Have him to come in started inning or started inning

205
00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:28,280
Speaker 1: in relief, you know, in the fifth inning or sixth

206
00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:30,600
Speaker 1: inning or something like that, and at least give him

207
00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:33,320
Speaker 1: one batter to come out and say, hey, thanks, there's

208
00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:35,040
Speaker 1: a reason why you came out and did this.

209
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:36,720
Speaker 3: And that's how he goes away.

210
00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:39,200
Speaker 1: But like really like he hangs out and he almost

211
00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:41,559
Speaker 1: got and he warms up and he doesn't get in

212
00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:44,000
Speaker 1: and and and that's how he walks out. Like that's

213
00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:46,720
Speaker 1: it's just so odd. It's so awkward. It's and it's

214
00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:49,200
Speaker 1: not like, hey, I'm here. I'm here. I'm here because

215
00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:51,920
Speaker 1: you need me. Obviously they don't because they're replacing him

216
00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:52,439
Speaker 1: on the roster.

217
00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:55,760
Speaker 3: He's replaced. He not, he's not gonna pitch it. He's done.

218
00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:57,880
Speaker 1: Right for the semi finals in the championship, if we

219
00:09:57,880 --> 00:09:59,920
Speaker 1: make it that far, he's done. Like I it's just

220
00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:02,319
Speaker 1: so odd and so awkward. And I get what he

221
00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:04,960
Speaker 1: was doing and I get going back here, but man,

222
00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:07,679
Speaker 1: it's just it's just I just can't shake the awkwardness

223
00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:08,920
Speaker 1: of this whole deal with Clayton.

224
00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:10,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think it worked out all right for him.

225
00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:13,880
Speaker 4: He walks out a winner, walked out, he got a

226
00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:17,840
Speaker 4: free beer, and he got to hang out and be

227
00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:20,800
Speaker 4: a baseball player a little while longer. He got to

228
00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:24,080
Speaker 4: be with the best of the best team USA. Uh

229
00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:27,360
Speaker 4: could get to to show up and stay with the squad.

230
00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:30,400
Speaker 4: I got to mentor some of these guys, got to

231
00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:33,280
Speaker 4: tell some tales. And here's some tales that will no

232
00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:36,040
Speaker 4: doubt be part of his new broadcasting career. Wait for

233
00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:40,040
Speaker 4: that and all of that. Uh yeah, I mean and

234
00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:44,280
Speaker 4: self serving. He goes out kind of on his own terms. Hey,

235
00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:46,040
Speaker 4: can I do this? You want me to do this?

236
00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:51,199
Speaker 5: Sure? Man, I don't know. It's nothing that I mean.

237
00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:53,200
Speaker 3: We always talk.

238
00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:57,120
Speaker 1: You retired, and you spend all off season staying in

239
00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:59,600
Speaker 1: some kind of shape, so you can just come back

240
00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:02,040
Speaker 1: and do this. I mean, I I really I I

241
00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:05,800
Speaker 1: I fail to see where this helped anybody. I mean, yeah, okay,

242
00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:07,760
Speaker 1: on the break lesson case emergency pitcher, you don't have

243
00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:10,439
Speaker 1: to worry about insurance. Okay, you got insurance for the

244
00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:12,280
Speaker 1: rest of the team. You can do insurance for one

245
00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:13,920
Speaker 1: more guy. One more guy you can at least trust

246
00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:16,600
Speaker 1: to come in to pitch, and and and and that'll work.

247
00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:19,200
Speaker 1: And and if that's the case where he's doing this, okay,

248
00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:20,680
Speaker 1: he could pitch an inning, you can put it. Nope,

249
00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:22,240
Speaker 1: not gonna pitch an inning at all. He pitch to

250
00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:24,400
Speaker 1: a batter, Nope, can't. Haven't pitched to a batter. Like

251
00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:27,760
Speaker 1: it's just for for players of a certain stature, right,

252
00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:30,200
Speaker 1: And this is not just this is a really good player.

253
00:11:30,520 --> 00:11:31,600
Speaker 3: And he you know, as you say.

254
00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:33,360
Speaker 1: He wanted to play a little bit more baseball, right,

255
00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:36,160
Speaker 1: like my Like like the guy playing Mike Rouzioni and Miracle,

256
00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:37,560
Speaker 1: I'm just looking to play a little more hockey, right

257
00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:39,719
Speaker 1: AND's gona play a little more hockey like Eruzioni was

258
00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:42,360
Speaker 1: done after that, Like Mike, my career is over. I'm

259
00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:44,559
Speaker 1: not making it out of out of juniors and out

260
00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:46,240
Speaker 1: of minor league and college hockey.

261
00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:47,120
Speaker 3: This is it for me.

262
00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:49,760
Speaker 1: Clayton Kersh had one of the greatest careers in the

263
00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:52,920
Speaker 1: history of Major League baseball. Like, this is a guy

264
00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:55,520
Speaker 1: that's walking out with My goodness, the best left handed

265
00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:58,360
Speaker 1: pitcher that I have ever seen. And it's just it's

266
00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:02,240
Speaker 1: just it's deafening me this watch ago. But he's gonna

267
00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:04,520
Speaker 1: go out like, yeah, I'm just I'm just here as

268
00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:08,040
Speaker 1: a body. I'm gonna be a jag like it's certain

269
00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:09,840
Speaker 1: guys when when you're at a certain level.

270
00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:11,079
Speaker 3: It's why guys like.

271
00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:14,360
Speaker 1: Brady don't hang around when they're losing it just a

272
00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:16,400
Speaker 1: little bit. Hey, I'm getting out because I don't want

273
00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:19,280
Speaker 1: to walk away like Emmett Smith as a cardinal, Joe

274
00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:22,000
Speaker 1: Namath as a ram, Willie Mays as a met These

275
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:23,120
Speaker 1: are all guys playing on my.

276
00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:23,840
Speaker 3: Teams, you know.

277
00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:25,280
Speaker 1: I don't want to walk out like one of these

278
00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:27,800
Speaker 1: superstars that boy. Clearly they've lost and they should have

279
00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:28,760
Speaker 1: hung it up years ago.

280
00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:30,199
Speaker 3: It's just it's just the the.

281
00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:32,560
Speaker 1: Overall the oddness with with the curt I just can't

282
00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:35,040
Speaker 1: get past the honest just because of the status of

283
00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:35,839
Speaker 1: the player that he is.

284
00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:38,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, I just think it comes down to the the

285
00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:41,000
Speaker 4: last run, the fact that he's missed this before. Stuff

286
00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:45,000
Speaker 4: we talked about you Steve and I in the past, right,

287
00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:47,320
Speaker 4: not just the insurance side of it. I mean that

288
00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:49,120
Speaker 4: can always be remedy. It's kind of like we talk

289
00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:52,080
Speaker 4: about money woes for NFL teams or whatever.

290
00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:53,440
Speaker 5: Like no, no, no, there's it's fuzzy math.

291
00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:55,920
Speaker 4: You can you can always move some monies around, uh,

292
00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:58,320
Speaker 4: convert some things and get back to where you need

293
00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:01,040
Speaker 4: to be, as long as you're not true across a

294
00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:04,440
Speaker 4: fifty million dollar bridge. But you know he missed because

295
00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:08,200
Speaker 4: of injuries and wasn't able to participate here. While he's not,

296
00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:12,280
Speaker 4: I guess a full share participant in terms of being

297
00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:15,360
Speaker 4: the go to guy. Wanted to wear the uniform one

298
00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:18,600
Speaker 4: more time, wanted to scratch that itch one last time.

299
00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:19,000
Speaker 3: Like I.

300
00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:22,520
Speaker 4: It's like we talk about on the show. For as

301
00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:23,800
Speaker 4: long as you and I have been doing it, I

302
00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:26,520
Speaker 4: can't tell someone how to feel. Right, if you're excitable

303
00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:28,960
Speaker 4: about a topic and I'm not, I can't tell you

304
00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:32,400
Speaker 4: not because it's it's not my bag. Likewise, if I'm

305
00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:35,240
Speaker 4: jacked up about something and you try to dismiss it,

306
00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:37,440
Speaker 4: like we we get into it and then we have

307
00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:40,920
Speaker 4: a verbal slap fight. But it's that like or fans

308
00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:43,760
Speaker 4: like if they're not into an event, I can only

309
00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:46,520
Speaker 4: sell you so hard. Right, if my kid is only

310
00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:49,640
Speaker 4: so good at math, I can't convince him that they

311
00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:53,240
Speaker 4: need to go and solve you know, the the equation

312
00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:56,360
Speaker 4: from goodwill hunting. We're not getting there, same thing with

313
00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:59,560
Speaker 4: Clayton Gershaw. He wanted to wear the uniform one last time.

314
00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:03,560
Speaker 1: So you're telling me Kershaw's Washington from Hamilton, relax, have

315
00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:06,920
Speaker 1: a beer in the bullpen with me one last And

316
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:07,520
Speaker 1: he got.

317
00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:09,240
Speaker 3: To do that in the middle of the game.

318
00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:11,199
Speaker 5: How great is that?

319
00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:14,679
Speaker 1: And then will teach him how to say goodbye. I'm

320
00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:16,000
Speaker 1: not gonna pitch at all.

321
00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:20,920
Speaker 4: And in Houston remember bad things it happened for him

322
00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:22,480
Speaker 4: in Houston and that team.

323
00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:26,360
Speaker 3: It's just just just odd. It's just so odd.

324
00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:29,440
Speaker 1: Like God, guys like Kershaw don't go out like this man,

325
00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:30,360
Speaker 1: They really don't.

326
00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:32,120

327
00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:35,160
Speaker 1: Oh look out, unselfish he and so what I did

328
00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:37,560
Speaker 1: that I could have been on the roster. I really

329
00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:39,560
Speaker 1: I could have been on the roster. Boy Jason Smith,

330
00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:41,800
Speaker 1: he throws about seventy. Well maybe not anymore. He's in

331
00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:43,480
Speaker 1: his fifties, maybe he's down to about sixty.

332
00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:46,080
Speaker 3: But hey, if we need him, we well you know,

333
00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:47,600
Speaker 3: we'll put him in there. For all I know.

334
00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:49,880
Speaker 4: For the last three weeks, all he's done is walk

00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:52,680
Speaker 4: guy to guy with eighteen boxes of baseball to get

336
00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:55,320
Speaker 4: him to sign. I don't know like that might be

337
00:14:55,440 --> 00:15:00,200
Speaker 4: U or he's ripped off every game US Jersey for

338

469
00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:17,040
Speaker 1: NFL insider in New York Daily News throughout his life,

470
00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:20,600
Speaker 1: went out and said that this runs absolute contrary to

471
00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:23,280
Speaker 1: what I have heard, and that is that whoever is

472
00:21:23,359 --> 00:21:27,119
Speaker 1: picking at the top, wherever arch Manning gets selected, he's

473
00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:30,080
Speaker 1: going to go. There's gonna be no draft manipulation. It

474
00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:33,280
Speaker 1: worked for Eli for you know, you know, two thousand

475
00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:35,320
Speaker 1: and four, now I gotta explain to millennials what happened

476
00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:37,080
Speaker 1: with Eli Manning in the draft in two thousand and four.

477
00:21:37,359 --> 00:21:39,600
Speaker 1: But like, just because the Manning family did it, then

478
00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:42,439
Speaker 1: we think they're gonna do it now. But Gary Myers,

479
00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:44,320
Speaker 1: who is more of an insider, more of a reporter,

480
00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:47,280
Speaker 1: said that that runs contrary to what he has heard

481
00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:49,680
Speaker 1: that whoever has the number one pick, or wherever he

482
00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:52,919
Speaker 1: winds up picking, that's where arch Manning will go to

483
00:21:53,080 --> 00:21:56,879
Speaker 1: begin his NFL career. This, Mike Harmon, is why I

484
00:21:56,920 --> 00:21:59,240
Speaker 1: get up in the morning because I need something to

485
00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:01,760
Speaker 1: get me through twenty six, where my big battle is

486
00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:04,119
Speaker 1: gonna be this fall, where it's gonna be the Jets

487
00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:07,560
Speaker 1: and the Dolphins battling for that number one overall picking

488
00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:10,240
Speaker 1: which one of us gets Arch Manning and which one

489
00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:13,040
Speaker 1: of us gets Dante Moore. Okay, one of them getting one,

490
00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:15,400
Speaker 1: one of them is getting the other. So okay, this

491
00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:17,399
Speaker 1: is why I get up in the morning, because I

492
00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:20,640
Speaker 1: gotta get through twenty twenty six to get to this

493
00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:22,639
Speaker 1: point for next year where it's all gonna be about

494
00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:24,399
Speaker 1: where we are at the end of the season.

495
00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:25,040
Speaker 5: Now it's pretty good.

496
00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:26,680
Speaker 4: I already told you, Gino is gonna win a couple

497
00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:27,720
Speaker 4: of games accidentally.

498
00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:31,040
Speaker 3: Geeno Geno The Ballad of.

499
00:22:31,119 --> 00:22:34,840
Speaker 4: Gino Full album by Jason Cole At Jason Cole sixty

500
00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:37,359
Speaker 4: two joins us each and every week find the podcast.

501
00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:40,800
Speaker 4: He joined us earlier in the week to discuss all

502
00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:44,400
Speaker 4: of that. But yeah, for this, it's it's an interesting theory.

503
00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:47,600
Speaker 4: I think Eli Manning. People forget that part of history.

504
00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:50,000
Speaker 4: People forget the whole John Elway.

505
00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:51,280
Speaker 5: Saga all those years ago.

506
00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:53,960
Speaker 4: Uh, those have been kind of dismissed and lost to

507
00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:56,080
Speaker 4: the annals of history, which means, if you're really mad

508
00:22:56,080 --> 00:22:58,760
Speaker 4: about the Bama had a bio thing, it's okay, this

509
00:22:58,840 --> 00:23:00,840
Speaker 4: too shall pass. Look at the career as those guys

510
00:23:00,880 --> 00:23:04,240
Speaker 4: went on to and it's a an afterthought that occasionally

511
00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:06,680
Speaker 4: gets brought up as a joke on a trading card.

512
00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:12,400
Speaker 4: But when we look at the Manning family, where else

513
00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:16,080
Speaker 4: now that your media moguls, where else can you dominate

514
00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:19,000
Speaker 4: better than having a guy as the number one quarterback

515
00:23:19,040 --> 00:23:19,600
Speaker 4: in New York?

516
00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:21,040
Speaker 3: Well, I mean, and.

517
00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:23,040
Speaker 1: The thing is, now this gets to it be a

518
00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:25,240
Speaker 1: bigger story other than I mean, look, like I said,

519
00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:27,040
Speaker 1: this is why get up in the morning, because I

520
00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:29,640
Speaker 1: keep waking up going arch Manning in a year, arch

521
00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:32,399
Speaker 1: Manning in the year. But the last time we have

522
00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:35,280
Speaker 1: seen this happen, right, We've seen people manipulate the drafts

523
00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:38,600
Speaker 1: say don't draft me, and we saw it with John Elway.

524
00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:42,000
Speaker 1: I mean, you're going back to the nineteen nineteen eighty two.

525
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:44,840
Speaker 1: The last time that happened, Eli Manning was two thousand

526
00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:49,359
Speaker 1: and four. Much different sports world now than it was

527
00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:53,520
Speaker 1: in two thousand and four, whereas the player had a little.

528
00:23:53,280 --> 00:23:55,680
Speaker 3: Bit more power coming into the draft.

529
00:23:56,160 --> 00:24:00,560
Speaker 1: I really wonder let's just say, for example, play a

530
00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:04,399
Speaker 1: quarterback comes out and pulls the power play right before

531
00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:08,080
Speaker 1: the draft and says, I'm not signing here. Like, can

532
00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:11,239
Speaker 1: you imagine the reaction, because it's not like they knew, right,

533
00:24:11,280 --> 00:24:14,359
Speaker 1: because the Chargers drafted first. They drafted Eli Manning, and

534
00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:18,160
Speaker 1: then they were told by arch Manning, bye bye, sorry,

535
00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:22,040
Speaker 1: by Archie Merchi that hey, Eli's not gonna sign there.

536
00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:24,280
Speaker 1: You got to do something, and they traded them to

537
00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:27,720
Speaker 1: the Giants, who the Giants took, uh, you know, picked

538
00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:30,280
Speaker 1: at number four, picked Philip Rivers at number four. So

539
00:24:30,320 --> 00:24:32,560
Speaker 1: they made that it worked out for both teams. Obviously,

540
00:24:32,560 --> 00:24:35,159
Speaker 1: both had great careers, although Eli did win two Super Bowls,

541
00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:38,560
Speaker 1: but just I wonder how that would go over now.

542
00:24:39,080 --> 00:24:42,040
Speaker 1: I don't believe for a player it would go how

543
00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:44,399
Speaker 1: you think it would. I don't think for a second

544
00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:47,200
Speaker 1: the league is going to allow a player to do

545
00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:49,840
Speaker 1: something like that, whether it's the NBA or the NFL,

546
00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:51,960
Speaker 1: where they're not going to allow a player say no,

547
00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:54,680
Speaker 1: don't draft me, and and we'll do it at the

548
00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:57,119
Speaker 1: last minute and we're gonna everybody's gonna have egg on

549
00:24:57,160 --> 00:24:59,920
Speaker 1: their faces. I think it's more of a case where

550
00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:01,600
Speaker 1: and I don't know if it's something where you're told

551
00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:04,000
Speaker 1: behind closed doors or not, but they know it would

552
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:05,800
Speaker 1: not go well for that player. First of all, I

553
00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:07,320
Speaker 1: don't know if they would allow it. I don't know

554
00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:10,359
Speaker 1: if the NFL or the NBA would say no, not

555
00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:12,320
Speaker 1: doing it. You're drafted by this team. This is how

556
00:25:12,320 --> 00:25:14,320
Speaker 1: it goes, because they don't want to open the door

557
00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:16,359
Speaker 1: now to more people doing it. We haven't seen it

558
00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:17,960
Speaker 1: in twenty some odd years. Like the last in the

559
00:25:18,080 --> 00:25:20,760
Speaker 1: NFL wants to see is someone coming in saying, hey,

560
00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:23,480
Speaker 1: guess what not going there now? The new way to

561
00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:25,880
Speaker 1: do it is to go back to school. Right now,

562
00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:28,200
Speaker 1: maybe Dante Moore wanted to go back to school because

563
00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:30,320
Speaker 1: he didn't want to go to the Jets. Maybe because

564
00:25:30,359 --> 00:25:32,240
Speaker 1: he was told by teams, hey, guess what, we're not

565
00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:34,680
Speaker 1: drafting you that high. I have a hard time believing

566
00:25:34,680 --> 00:25:38,199
Speaker 1: that Dante Moore went back to school when he was

567
00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:41,359
Speaker 1: turning down fifty million dollars a guaranteed money to get

568
00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:44,120
Speaker 1: you know, eight or nine million for one more year

569
00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:46,400
Speaker 1: in college, which is kind of a stupid business decision.

570
00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:48,639
Speaker 1: But maybe he was told to go back to you know,

571
00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:50,120
Speaker 1: go back, we're not going to take you at number

572
00:25:50,119 --> 00:25:53,399
Speaker 1: two either. But whatever reason, that's what players are going

573
00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:55,159
Speaker 1: to do now. Because they can go back and they

574
00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:57,400
Speaker 1: can make more money. That's going to be how their

575
00:25:57,440 --> 00:26:00,159
Speaker 1: way of quote manipulating the draft if they can. But

576
00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:02,840
Speaker 1: when they run out of eligibility, they go there. I

577
00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:05,119
Speaker 1: don't think you're going to see another player do something

578
00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:08,919
Speaker 1: like that. I really feel like if that happened now

579
00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:12,680
Speaker 1: and Eli Manning was drafted by the Chargers and after

580
00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:15,200
Speaker 1: he was drafted, all of a sudden, his dad said,

581
00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:17,960
Speaker 1: guess what, he's not signing. This is where Roger Goodell

582
00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:20,520
Speaker 1: would step in and people would step in and go sorry.

583
00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:23,160
Speaker 1: This is how it works in the NFL. You're here

584
00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:25,640
Speaker 1: or you don't play with us at all, and we're

585
00:26:25,680 --> 00:26:28,040
Speaker 1: gonna and we figure this out. You don't come in

586
00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:30,439
Speaker 1: and say this is how we run things. I mean,

587
00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:32,320
Speaker 1: I think the NFL got taken a little bit by

588
00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:34,560
Speaker 1: surprise in two thousand and four by this. And it

589
00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:37,280
Speaker 1: happened to work out over the course of twenty minutes.

590
00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:39,320
Speaker 1: It was like, okay, well we'll make this trade and

591
00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:41,040
Speaker 1: you'll get Philip Rivers and we'll get here. Okay, And

592
00:26:41,720 --> 00:26:44,879
Speaker 1: it didn't turn into something that languished went on. But

593
00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:47,120
Speaker 1: if that happened now, much different situation.

594
00:26:47,240 --> 00:26:49,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, just the way that the game is covered,

595
00:26:50,760 --> 00:26:54,960
Speaker 4: it's gonna be hard for that to be a secret necessarily.

596
00:26:55,040 --> 00:26:56,879
Speaker 5: I mean, look, you got it.

597
00:26:56,880 --> 00:26:58,960
Speaker 4: As soon as you have more than two people in

598
00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:01,959
Speaker 4: a conversation, uh, you run the risk of a lot

599
00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:05,840
Speaker 4: of chaos there because there there's extra all right, do

600
00:27:06,080 --> 00:27:08,959
Speaker 4: you mind your you know, cross your t's, dot your

601
00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:11,919
Speaker 4: eyes and everybody keep your mouth shut. No, we know

602
00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:16,400
Speaker 4: what happens. Hey, did you hear what might happen over here?

603
00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:18,960
Speaker 4: And all of a sudden it gets out And if

604
00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:21,560
Speaker 4: you go and do that kind of thing, you're one

605
00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:23,720
Speaker 4: tough son of a gun. If that doesn't end up

606
00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:26,320
Speaker 4: affecting you, because you know you're gonna hear it from

607
00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:29,960
Speaker 4: all angles. And we already get so much from players

608
00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:33,200
Speaker 4: and their interactions with fans and betters and everything else.

609
00:27:33,440 --> 00:27:38,120
Speaker 4: Think about this in at least one marketplace that becomes

610
00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:41,280
Speaker 4: very toxic all the way through social media. Never mind

611
00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:44,960
Speaker 4: our hot take nonsense sports media culture that we're in

612
00:27:45,080 --> 00:27:48,640
Speaker 4: right now. Yeah, I would play much differently. I would

613
00:27:48,640 --> 00:27:51,120
Speaker 4: truly test the metal of that player. I wouldn't rule

614
00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:54,439
Speaker 4: it out categorically, But I do think that school option

615
00:27:54,600 --> 00:27:57,080
Speaker 4: is always gonna be there, particularly when we're talking about

616
00:27:57,240 --> 00:28:01,679
Speaker 4: what is it a five if you go as a

617
00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:04,639
Speaker 4: basketball player from a mid major to a power for

618
00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:08,280
Speaker 4: I mean, think about that from football at a quarterback position.

619
00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:10,840
Speaker 4: Maybe we'll watch Carson back to it right, look at

620
00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:13,880
Speaker 4: how much money he went and made and never took

621
00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:16,480
Speaker 4: a class for two years, which is a whole other

622
00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:19,000
Speaker 4: problem with where we're at. But you can't solve it

623
00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:22,920
Speaker 4: all in one fell stroke of a pen. But it's

624
00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:25,520
Speaker 4: it's the opportunity of all, right, I'm going away from

625
00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:28,159
Speaker 4: that team. There's there's plenty of ways to finesse it.

626
00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:31,919
Speaker 4: But the school launch certainly allows you to augment your

627
00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:33,320
Speaker 4: bank account at the same time.

628
00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:36,199
Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's and that's that's the best way to say, Well,

629
00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:38,360
Speaker 1: if I don't want to go here, and and granted,

630
00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:41,239
Speaker 1: now players coming out, you know, obviously, if you're a

631
00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:43,880
Speaker 1: senior quarterback and you're out of eligibility and you're coming out,

632
00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:45,600
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be the number one picking the draft. Okay,

633
00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:48,480
Speaker 1: embrace that, right, Fanana Mendoza knows, Hey, here I am.

634
00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:51,960
Speaker 1: I transferred. I turned it to the best quarterback prospect

635
00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:54,040
Speaker 1: in the game. Yes, I'm going to the Raiders and

636
00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:55,920
Speaker 1: it's going to be a step down from the football

637
00:28:56,200 --> 00:28:57,480
Speaker 1: situation here Indiana.

638
00:28:57,960 --> 00:28:59,800
Speaker 3: So I'm going here. But okay, but this is this

639
00:28:59,880 --> 00:29:00,640
Speaker 3: is how it goes.

640
00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:03,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, you want to be able to say, hey, if

641
00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:05,320
Speaker 1: I'm a junior and I really want to take a

642
00:29:05,320 --> 00:29:07,840
Speaker 1: look at where I want to go, Yeah, the prospect

643
00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:09,600
Speaker 1: of going back to school, my school love me.

644
00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:10,960
Speaker 3: I will get that kind of.

645
00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:12,640
Speaker 1: Money in the nil era as long as an l

646
00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:16,280
Speaker 1: R still exists, that'll happen. But when I'm a senior

647
00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:18,880
Speaker 1: and I'm out of eligibility and going yeah, if you

648
00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:19,400
Speaker 1: want to try it.

649
00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:21,160
Speaker 3: But it's not gonna go how you think it will. Now.

650
00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:23,600
Speaker 4: The other part, Jason, though, is you know all these

651
00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:28,600
Speaker 4: guys beware best laid plans, right, the idea being that

652
00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:31,360
Speaker 4: you could try to avoid the Jets. Guess what odds

653
00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:35,680
Speaker 4: are they're still circling there next year. Sorry, buddy. They're

654
00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:39,480
Speaker 4: the obvious example in this scenario with Dante more for

655
00:29:39,560 --> 00:29:43,240
Speaker 4: this year, but in general, right until one of these

656
00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:46,640
Speaker 4: teams breaks the cycles, the Jets, the Browns and the

657
00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:49,440

00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:50,200
Speaker 4: top of the draft.

659
00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:52,040

00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:54,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, we're still gonna be here.

661
00:29:53,800 --> 00:29:57,400
Speaker 4: But that's the big things like, No, I can't go

662
00:29:57,440 --> 00:30:00,200
Speaker 4: there because they're dyfunctional. Why do you think they're what?

663
00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:03,240

Speaker 1: a god, like his entire back is filled up with

789
00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:26,439
Speaker 1: this Max Crosby tattoo is a raven with all kinds

790
00:36:26,480 --> 00:36:27,480
Speaker 1: of stuff around it.

791
00:36:27,480 --> 00:36:31,760
Speaker 3: It is a full back red dragon.

792
00:36:31,920 --> 00:36:33,399
Speaker 5: I was gonna say, yeah very much.

Speaker 1: Y finds, yeah very much red dragon tattoo.

794
00:36:37,480 --> 00:36:40,439
Speaker 4: Another one of those scenarios in a movie theater where

795
00:36:40,440 --> 00:36:42,319
Speaker 4: I laughed inappropriately and.

796
00:36:42,320 --> 00:36:43,719
Speaker 5: How that scene was.

797
00:36:44,160 --> 00:36:46,920
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, like Peter Griffin when he went to see Philadelphia.

798
00:36:47,280 --> 00:36:51,160
Speaker 5: You know, it's wow wow, Okay, not quite.

799
00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:54,640
Speaker 4: It's kind of like you know, Yoda and the pinballing

800
00:36:54,680 --> 00:36:56,680
Speaker 4: around fighting duku uh.

801
00:36:57,360 --> 00:37:01,760
Speaker 3: Rad finds I am the dragon, Like, yeah, I'm the dragon.

802
00:37:01,800 --> 00:37:03,400
Speaker 4: Now it was supposed to be a big deal and

803
00:37:03,640 --> 00:37:06,320
Speaker 4: I laughed it was the tattoo.

804
00:37:06,400 --> 00:37:08,040
Speaker 3: But at first I said, there's no way this is real.

805
00:37:08,160 --> 00:37:09,719
Speaker 1: But you know, we had a bunch of websites that

806
00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:12,880
Speaker 1: had it reporting, and I'm going the guy goes and

807
00:37:12,920 --> 00:37:17,200
Speaker 1: gets this incredibly ornate back tattoo, which I which again

808
00:37:17,239 --> 00:37:19,319
Speaker 1: part of me, was like, don't tattoos have to like

809
00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:21,759
Speaker 1: that have to be done over the course of like

810
00:37:21,840 --> 00:37:24,640
Speaker 1: a few weeks. Alex Tischer, Yeah, yeah, you're all, you're

811
00:37:24,640 --> 00:37:27,120
Speaker 1: all tatted up. Doesn't a tattoo like that then he

812
00:37:27,200 --> 00:37:29,000
Speaker 1: has to be done like over a period a long

813
00:37:29,040 --> 00:37:30,920
Speaker 1: period of time, like you get it. You can't get

814
00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:32,960
Speaker 1: an involved tattoo like that on your whole back in

815
00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:34,200
Speaker 1: like one day or two days.

816
00:37:34,360 --> 00:37:35,520
Speaker 8: Well, you'd be surprised.

817
00:37:35,600 --> 00:37:38,480
Speaker 1: Jay, Oh really Okay, I don't know what the advancements

818
00:37:38,480 --> 00:37:39,319
Speaker 1: and tattoos are now.

819
00:37:39,320 --> 00:37:40,319
Speaker 3: I thought it would have to be something.

820
00:37:40,320 --> 00:37:42,799
Speaker 4: But at the tattoo artist time has had a lot

821
00:37:42,800 --> 00:37:44,800
Speaker 4: of espresso, like he's part of team Italy.

822
00:37:44,880 --> 00:37:45,920
Speaker 5: Ha, he might be ready.

823
00:37:46,120 --> 00:37:47,480
Speaker 8: Well, I don't know if you saw like with that

824
00:37:47,560 --> 00:37:49,520
Speaker 8: ball brother, the one that has like his entire whole

825
00:37:49,560 --> 00:37:50,239
Speaker 8: body added up.

826
00:37:50,239 --> 00:37:51,360
Speaker 3: Now, uh, huh.

827
00:37:51,360 --> 00:37:54,120
Speaker 8: So he had four different artists tattooing him at once

828
00:37:54,160 --> 00:37:56,480
Speaker 8: on his back. So he literally did that entire back

829
00:37:56,520 --> 00:37:59,840
Speaker 8: piece I think in under twenty hours. Oh wow, it

830
00:37:59,880 --> 00:38:02,440
Speaker 8: is possible. But I'm saying like, it depends on the artist,

831
00:38:02,640 --> 00:38:06,240
Speaker 8: how long you're going for the descriptiveness behind it in details,

832
00:38:06,239 --> 00:38:08,160
Speaker 8: et cetera. So it can go from anywhere from one

833
00:38:08,239 --> 00:38:09,560
Speaker 8: day to weeks truly.

834
00:38:09,680 --> 00:38:12,319
Speaker 3: Oh okay, all right, I mean this, what's that game tomorrow?

835
00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:14,480
Speaker 5: Do they do team like that?

836
00:38:15,040 --> 00:38:17,520
Speaker 8: Maybe maybe I gotta watch.

837
00:38:17,600 --> 00:38:19,759
Speaker 3: I don't know if la Ink is still on the air,

838
00:38:19,840 --> 00:38:20,920
Speaker 3: maybe I have to watch that and say.

839
00:38:21,080 --> 00:38:23,000
Speaker 8: But the one thing they don't mention, Jason is how

840
00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:24,520
Speaker 8: painful it is if you do it that long of

841
00:38:24,560 --> 00:38:25,080
Speaker 8: a session.

842
00:38:25,520 --> 00:38:27,960
Speaker 3: Oh it's a pain, dude. It's painful just to look

843
00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:29,480
Speaker 3: at it, you know.

844
00:38:29,560 --> 00:38:31,920
Speaker 1: I mean, man, I mean now, I gotta think that

845
00:38:31,960 --> 00:38:33,760
Speaker 1: at some point the guy's gonna be able to redo

846
00:38:33,800 --> 00:38:36,560
Speaker 1: the face and the jersey number because the rest is

847
00:38:36,600 --> 00:38:39,919
