Speaker 1: job of coaching by Mike Brown. Now, speaking of Mike Brown,

96
00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:46,960
Speaker 1: I kind of like watching the celebration tonight when the

97
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:49,160
Speaker 1: Knicks win. They're all getting on stage taking pictures and

98
00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:50,400
Speaker 1: Mike Brown is off to the side.

99
00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:52,279
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's kind of cool. I like that, you know,

100

00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:55,120
Speaker 1: You know, Tims would have been in the middle, yes,

102
00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:58,119
Speaker 1: but I like Mike Brown was off to the side.

103
00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:00,560
Speaker 1: The players have in their moment. But not to say

104
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:04,280
Speaker 1: Mike Brown didn't enjoy winning the Emirates Cup Championship. Here

105
00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:07,960
Speaker 1: is Mike Brown from a few moments ago, getting ready

00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:21,800
Speaker 3: This is Mike Brown.

108
00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:24,520
Speaker 4: And then Michael Finley took it from him.

109
00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:29,320
Speaker 1: He he burped, and then he said, and the audio

110
00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:30,919
Speaker 1: is kind of tough because he proved, sorry, I just

111
00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:32,719
Speaker 1: had a beer and it kind of sticks in my

112
00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:36,279
Speaker 1: throat a little bit. So that was Mike Brown enjoying. Yes,

113

120
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:03,760
Speaker 1: Brown is the King of New York. I don't think

121
00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:10,719
Speaker 1: Marph needs for every Hey, Marv, we got a stack

122
00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:13,560
Speaker 1: of liners for you to do. Clearly, Mike Brown not

123
00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:18,360
Speaker 1: needing Bud dry his throat dry enough, something with more viscosity.

124
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:21,000
Speaker 4: Yes, Jason, how did you know it was? Michaelob Ultra

125

Speaker 4: is really oh okay.

126
00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:27,599
Speaker 1: But just working through the pitch deck, it's like, all right,

127
00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:30,960
Speaker 1: we're going in search of the official beer, so we

128
00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:32,920
Speaker 1: we're gonna need you to read these so like we

129
00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:35,560
Speaker 1: can have him as part of the meetings, and he's

130
00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:41,080
Speaker 1: just going beer. Foster's is Australian for beer. It's also

131
00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:48,200
Speaker 1: English for the Knicks are the champions. Yes, La Mett's

132
00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:51,000
Speaker 1: beat Dennis oil Canboyd back in eighty six in the

133
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:54,800
Speaker 1: World Series. Tonight the Knicks beat the Spurt. That doesn't

134
00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:57,120
Speaker 1: make any sense, but you're paying me to read it,

135
00:06:57,200 --> 00:07:04,320
Speaker 1: so I'll just read it. I'm run. But yes, Marv

136
00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:06,600
Speaker 1: Albert for all those years, I mean that's it. I mean,

137
00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:10,120
Speaker 1: we're They did the montage before the sign off of

138
00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:12,760
Speaker 1: the great moments in Knick's history, and all of them

139
00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:15,440
Speaker 1: would have been chronicled by Marv Albert. And they go

140
00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:19,240
Speaker 1: back a long time. Not a lot of positivity here

141
00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:21,720
Speaker 1: these last couple of years. I would have thought Jalen

142
00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:27,720
Speaker 1: Brunson that much better than his dad. Yes, and boy,

143
00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:30,440
Speaker 1: you have to feel for Mark Cuban not being able

144
00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:36,520
Speaker 1: to keep Jalen Brunson in the building. Yes, this has

145
00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:41,080
Speaker 1: gone far worse than you are, Chris Berman, DJ and

146
00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:43,840
Speaker 1: uh not gonna be easy for Yannis to get to

147
00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:48,920
Speaker 1: the Knicks after this one tonight, No, because think because

148
00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:50,760
Speaker 1: think about that for just for one second, right, to

149
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:53,160
Speaker 1: get to get to the take Why the Knicks needed

150
00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:56,600
Speaker 1: this right first thing, janis if the knickser is preferred destination,

151
00:07:57,120 --> 00:07:59,160
Speaker 1: nothing you have seen so far is gonna get the

152
00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:01,680
Speaker 1: Knicks to upset their apple cart to trade from the deadline. Well,

153
00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:04,400
Speaker 1: that's the thing we talked about Brown and what he's

154
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:07,560
Speaker 1: done as a coach and the changeover from Thibodeau. I

155
00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:09,920
Speaker 1: mentioned it, you know, last hour a little bit that

156
00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:12,680
Speaker 1: we were I was watching some of the posts, you know,

157
00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:14,920
Speaker 1: getting a cup of coffee in the in the kitchen,

158
00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:19,280
Speaker 1: and and just the way Brunson and Hart were talking

159
00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:22,920
Speaker 1: about their relationship with Mike Brown and how he fortified

160
00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:26,120
Speaker 1: that in terms of wanting to get to know them

161
00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:31,000
Speaker 1: beyond their moves as chess pieces on a basketball court

162
00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:35,319
Speaker 1: and relating to each of them in their lives as

163
00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:38,840
Speaker 1: men and going down like that he started with them

164
00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:42,280
Speaker 1: and then obviously making time and getting to know the

165
00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:45,240
Speaker 1: rest of the roster, but that he really took the

166
00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:50,920
Speaker 1: initiative of getting to know them outside of the basketball confines,

167
00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:55,439
Speaker 1: which is huge, right. We understand that it takes time

168
00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:58,320
Speaker 1: to build those relationships, but that that was his first

169
00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:01,440
Speaker 1: order of business, not like hey, rotations or whatever else, like,

170
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:04,400
Speaker 1: I gotta get to know you as people before we

171
00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:07,040
Speaker 1: can really build as a team. And I think that's

172
00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:10,599
Speaker 1: lost on a lot of this anymore. It's so transactional,

173
00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:14,840
Speaker 1: so short term success as opposed to all right, we

174
00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:17,120
Speaker 1: need to build this thing, and we can't just do

175
00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:19,599
Speaker 1: it if all we know is is in between the

176
00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:23,080
Speaker 1: white lines. Look, And that's why the Knicks needed this,

177
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:29,120
Speaker 1: needed tonight, needed this championship because coming off the last year,

178
00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:31,920
Speaker 1: probably should have been in the NBA Finals. You know,

179
00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:35,920
Speaker 1: they blow that big lead to the Pacers, they never

180
00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:41,079
Speaker 1: really recover and Tibbs gets fired. Right, very controversial team

181
00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:44,400
Speaker 1: this close to a championship, but the Knicks understand that

182
00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:47,040
Speaker 1: we need something a little bit more. So there's always

183
00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:49,720
Speaker 1: gonna be that question did we do the right thing?

184
00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:52,680
Speaker 1: And the TIBs hangover was real. Right when the Knicks

185
00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:55,480
Speaker 1: started out this season, what was it? Things were just

186
00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:58,360
Speaker 1: a little bit more difficult than it felt it should

187
00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:02,200
Speaker 1: be with this team playing more guys off the bench.

188
00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:04,640
Speaker 1: Mccal bridges was terrific the beginning of the year, right,

189
00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:06,640
Speaker 1: he was a different guy off of this team, but

190
00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:08,760
Speaker 1: things were just a little bit more difficult. It felt

191
00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:10,600
Speaker 1: like the end of the year last year and playoff

192
00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:14,600
Speaker 1: games where boy, every time, you know, they're dogging Jalen

193
00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:17,439
Speaker 1: Brunson up the court every single time, trying to exhaust them.

194
00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:19,880
Speaker 1: This is game five, Game six, Game seven, and the

195
00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:22,120
Speaker 1: Knicks lost a little bit out of the gate, and

196
00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:25,560
Speaker 1: so you get a little bit of ooh, is this

197
00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:28,480
Speaker 1: the right thing? Right that the TIBs hangover is still there,

198
00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:31,120
Speaker 1: players still very loyal to him, even though they love

199
00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:34,160
Speaker 1: Mike Brown. The Knicks need even though they had started

200
00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:36,000
Speaker 1: to win, right, and the big thing for the nixt

201
00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:37,720
Speaker 1: they put Josh Hart in the starting lineup and all

202
00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:39,040
Speaker 1: of a sudden, that was it, Like that was the

203
00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:42,360
Speaker 1: big change, and the Knicks started winning. Everything started working

204
00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:44,880
Speaker 1: from there. And yes, they're playing more guys, guys off

205
00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:46,720
Speaker 1: the bench night. I mean, think about it. The Knicks

206
00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:50,480
Speaker 1: won tonight because Mitchell Robinson and Jordan Clarkson. Right, Clarkson

207
00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:52,920
Speaker 1: has done it. You don't need these guys every single night,

208
00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:54,560
Speaker 1: but you need guys that can do this. So the

209
00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:58,000
Speaker 1: onus is not on Brunson and Karl Anthony Towns and Anunoby.

210
00:10:58,240 --> 00:10:59,480
Speaker 1: Like you saw the way they were able to do

211
00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:01,679
Speaker 1: it tonight. Nicks got big stuff off the bench. And

212
00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:03,839
Speaker 1: when we talked to Rick Bucker an hour go on

213
00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:06,200
Speaker 1: the show, he's listen, these guys weren't even playing in

214
00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:08,720
Speaker 1: this game. Jordan Clarkson wouldn't be in the game. Mitchell

215
00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:11,440
Speaker 1: Robinson wouldn't be in the game. If Tibbs was coaching right,

216
00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:13,600
Speaker 1: he would stick with his iron five right. So you

217
00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:16,440
Speaker 1: see that you needed Mike Brown to get some time

218
00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:19,880
Speaker 1: to get his rotation in, play the right guys in

219
00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:21,960
Speaker 1: the right order, in the right way. He wanted to

220
00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:25,480
Speaker 1: do it. But the Knicks winning this even though it's okay,

221
00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:27,120
Speaker 1: it's the e Cup, it's the middle of the season,

222
00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:29,960
Speaker 1: this is a tangible piece of evidence that what we

223
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:33,120
Speaker 1: are doing is working towards being a team that can

224
00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:35,800
Speaker 1: win the NBA title this year. We knew coming in

225
00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:37,800
Speaker 1: we were gonna be one of the favorites, right us

226
00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:41,040
Speaker 1: in Cleveland because the Celtics were without Jason Tatum. The

227
00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:44,080
Speaker 1: Pacers have lost a couple of guys, No Haliburton, Caliburton,

228
00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:48,960
Speaker 1: so they knew, hey, we're one of the big heavy favorites.

229
00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:51,559
Speaker 1: Obviously the Pistons have jumped out there's always going to

230
00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:53,920
Speaker 1: be that team up there. But the Knicks are saying, Okay,

231
00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:56,679
Speaker 1: this is our year. We are here for this, and

232
00:11:56,720 --> 00:11:58,840
Speaker 1: you need a little bit of that evidence to say, hey,

233
00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:03,200
Speaker 1: you tangible piece of what we're doing is working. Just

234
00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:06,240
Speaker 1: like in anything where if you're following a new script,

235
00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:08,520
Speaker 1: you get to that point where you ask yourself is

236
00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:10,280
Speaker 1: this working? Do we need to go back to what

237
00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:12,520
Speaker 1: we're doing? Do we need to change things? But now

238
00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:14,679
Speaker 1: is your stamp of we don't need to change anything.

239
00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:16,640
Speaker 1: We just want a championship. We went into a winner

240
00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:19,600
Speaker 1: take all game in a neutral environment, right, not in

241
00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:22,679
Speaker 1: our place right where hey we play at Madison Square Garden, Right,

242
00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:24,559
Speaker 1: that's our place, that's where we go. It's where we

243
00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:27,120
Speaker 1: beat everybody. No, we're now winning games on the road,

244
00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:31,520
Speaker 1: neutral environment for a championship where both sides really wanted it,

245
00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:34,320
Speaker 1: in front of fans that were you were paid to

246
00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:36,160
Speaker 1: be there, in front of fans who were there, no

247
00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:38,080
Speaker 1: matter how many were or weren't there. In the blue

248
00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:42,480
Speaker 1: lights up above. This was a big cementing of the

249
00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:45,320
Speaker 1: Knicks believe what they're doing, and now they're even a better,

250
00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:47,640
Speaker 1: more dangerous tea than they were because they have this

251
00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:51,000
Speaker 1: tangible evidence of Okay, this group together we just achieved,

252
00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:55,120
Speaker 1: we coalesced, We made it through this crazy Herky Jerky

253
00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:58,120
Speaker 1: e Cup schedule. But we knew when the games were

254
00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:01,079
Speaker 1: we wanted to win. Everybody wanted to win, right, everybody

255
00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:03,280
Speaker 1: wants the money get to the Emirates Cup Final. We

256
00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:05,040
Speaker 1: saw it to again, you watch the game. You saw

257
00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:07,040
Speaker 1: how bad the Spurs wanted. You saw bad the Knicks

258
00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:09,560
Speaker 1: wanted it. Both teams wanted to win. But this is

259
00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:12,560
Speaker 1: so big because the Knicks needed this belief to know

260
00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:15,560
Speaker 1: that hey, from now on, hey we know that we

261
00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:15,880
Speaker 1: got it.

262
00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:16,079
Speaker 4: Now.

263
00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:17,839
Speaker 1: I just hope going forward, the Knicks don't rust in

264
00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:19,719
Speaker 1: the Laurels going yeah, yeah, we got it, we got it,

265
00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:21,920
Speaker 1: and instead it's more of a springboard jumping off board.

266
00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:24,080
Speaker 1: That's it, right, You have to have your litmus test.

267
00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:27,280
Speaker 1: We talked about it just in terms of regular season matchups,

268
00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:30,640
Speaker 1: right where you recognize where you don't match up well

269
00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:32,479
Speaker 1: against the top.

270
00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:33,880
Speaker 4: Of your conference.

271
00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:36,160
Speaker 1: I will talk about the Spurs a bit more and

272
00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:39,800
Speaker 1: where they are and some stuff coming out in the post.

273
00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:42,200
Speaker 1: But you know, like when we watched the Lakers, they

274
00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:43,960
Speaker 1: were having that great run and then they went and

275
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:47,319
Speaker 1: got drummed by Okac, and it's like, okay, that's your

276
00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:50,640
Speaker 1: true test, right. You want to be defined by how

277
00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:54,400
Speaker 1: you play against the best in your respective conferences, and

278
00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:57,520
Speaker 1: the Emirates Cup does at least give you that little

279
00:13:57,520 --> 00:14:01,480
Speaker 1: snapshot of here we are battle test it a little bit, right.

280
00:14:01,559 --> 00:14:03,920
Speaker 1: The Knicks get out of the East and you play

281
00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:07,320
Speaker 1: a Spurs team that has great depth and great length,

282
00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:10,160
Speaker 1: and you come away with a win and a great

283
00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:13,080
Speaker 1: fourth quarter to close it out, and you needed those

284
00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:15,600
Speaker 1: bench players to do it. So you have proof of

285
00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:18,800
Speaker 1: concept of all right, what we're building works. Do you

286
00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:21,120
Speaker 1: still have tweaks? Well, you got a few weeks ahead

287
00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:23,560
Speaker 1: of the trade deadline, right, And that's the other thing

288
00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:25,880
Speaker 1: that you come out of here with your your proof

289
00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:28,680
Speaker 1: of concept of what you have with Mike Brown that

290
00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:32,920
Speaker 1: it's working and more filmed to go back and look

291
00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:35,240
Speaker 1: at of all right, what else can we tweak? Where

292
00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:37,720
Speaker 1: else can maybe we steal some minutes along the way,

293
00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:40,120
Speaker 1: because it is a long road before we get to

294
00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:45,160
Speaker 1: June where we're playing for the real stakes. Exit about

295
00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:48,200
Speaker 1: a Fresca exit swollen dome for tonight. The Knicks are

296
00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:52,880
Speaker 1: the champions. They dine on the E Cup stake of success.

297
00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:57,640
Speaker 1: We snack on danger and we dine on depth. We

298
00:14:57,760 --> 00:14:59,880
Speaker 1: got more NBA on the way. But coming up next,

299
00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:03,120
Speaker 1: two big stories out of the NFL. One that is

300
00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:06,080
Speaker 1: upsetting the Apple card at the top of the NFL Draft.

301
00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:08,600

Speaker 1: toe Cup champions gear like a toddler wearing his favorite

333
00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:51,920
Speaker 1: John Cena outfit. There is something to be said for that.

334
00:16:53,200 --> 00:16:57,560
Speaker 1: Get your athletics shorts, some wristbands. Yeah yeah, I just

335
00:16:57,720 --> 00:17:00,000
Speaker 1: like I know exactly the outfit he's talking about, right

336
00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:02,720
Speaker 1: with the wristbands, the hat, and the shirt all the

337
00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:07,280
Speaker 1: way through, respect, loyalty, hustle, Let's go. You can always

338
00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:10,240
Speaker 1: dress up as a clown like Spike Lee. Hey, Hey, hey, hey,

339
00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:13,760
Speaker 1: Spike Lee. That's that's Spike Lee. That's I thought there

340
00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:16,760
Speaker 1: was a clown. That's e cup Nick super fan Spike Lee.

341
00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:19,199
Speaker 1: I'm gonna give him credit though. He showed on that

342
00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:21,560
Speaker 1: he did right for all it up in Vegas. Yeah,

343
00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:23,520
Speaker 1: showed up. He's been waiting this whole damn wife.

344
00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:24,080
Speaker 4: But that's the.

345
00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:28,000
Speaker 1: Point he has been. He paid it off like you

346
00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:30,760
Speaker 1: got a bunch of other folks. Look, Ben Stiller literally

347
00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:32,879
Speaker 1: phoned it in. How much you want to bet? How

348
00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:34,600
Speaker 1: much you want to bet? If I had gone to

349
00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:37,119
Speaker 1: that game tonight, if I had taken tonight off and

350
00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:39,600
Speaker 1: gone to that game, I'd have been sitting next to

351
00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:40,240
Speaker 1: Spike Lee.

352
00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:41,200
Speaker 4: That would have been great.

353
00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:45,440
Speaker 1: If you going out of your way to say in retrospect,

354
00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:46,479
Speaker 1: I probably should have done.

355
00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:48,159
Speaker 4: I could take it to night and gone to the

356
00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:49,680
Speaker 4: gut in a ticket request.

357
00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:51,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, I could have taken tonight off, gone to the game,

358
00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:55,440
Speaker 1: gone to see the championship. Understand what else win? You know, Frostburg,

359
00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:57,800
Speaker 1: I'm not lying yet. I really think I should have been.

360
00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:02,360
Speaker 1: I should have done. But here's the thing is that when.

361
00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:04,560
Speaker 4: Instead you were standing up in the studio.

362
00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:07,360
Speaker 1: Some of some of the greatest nights I've had in sports.

363
00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:09,760
Speaker 1: And I'm not saying this because it's one thing or

364
00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:11,399
Speaker 1: the other. And again, I don't know I have the

365
00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:14,080
Speaker 1: great nights. But some of the greatest nights in sports

366
00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:16,439
Speaker 1: that I've had over the course of my career, I

367
00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:19,040
Speaker 1: trace back to what it was like that night, being

368
00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:23,359
Speaker 1: able to talk about it on the air, for everybody

369
00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:25,320
Speaker 1: to listen to like that, like that, like to go

370
00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:26,960
Speaker 1: to the game would be awesome. Right to go to

371
00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:29,080
Speaker 1: the game and have that experience and win, it's fantastic.

372
00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:31,600
Speaker 1: But just remember Kobe's final night where we couldn't get

373
00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:34,200
Speaker 1: audio because everybody was too busy running up and down

374
00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:34,760
Speaker 1: the hallway.

375
00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:37,000
Speaker 4: Is excited, like hey, could we get that shot?

376
00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:40,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, But certain nights like that's what I defin, that's

377
00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:41,960
Speaker 1: what I default. So I go back to God, I

378
00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:44,840
Speaker 1: remember getting to talk about that for four hours, talk

379
00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:46,760
Speaker 1: about this game, and it's not just about my team.

380
00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:49,160
Speaker 1: It's big nights in history and things happening in sports,

381
00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:52,080

408
00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:57,919
Speaker 1: I mean, I mean, the only thing missing was Marv Albert.

409
00:19:57,960 --> 00:19:59,840
Speaker 1: That was the only thing missing. Somehow we need to

410
00:19:59,840 --> 00:20:00,360
Speaker 1: more tonight.

411
00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:02,359
Speaker 4: But he was really in your soul. So were you

00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:03,240
Speaker 4: really missing him?

413
00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:05,439
Speaker 1: And really, I can't believe it took the next this

414
00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:08,600
Speaker 1: long to actually win something. I was a broadcaster going

415
00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:11,680
Speaker 1: back to nineteen sixty eight, and it took him till

416
00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:16,439
Speaker 1: twenty twenty five, when Mellow's kid is playing for Syracuse

417
00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:19,080
Speaker 1: for them to finally win something. You couldn't have done

418
00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:22,240
Speaker 1: it for me earlier in my career. Time out, Marv Albert,

419
00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:24,159
Speaker 1: I want to talk it over. Oh, we had the

420
00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:26,280
Speaker 1: big run in ninety nine. You go back to the

421
00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:29,320
Speaker 1: White Bronco Chase and ninety.

422
00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:30,040
Speaker 4: Four ninety five.

423
00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:34,439
Speaker 1: I mean, all that split screen experience with the NBA

424
00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:39,200
Speaker 1: Finals where the NBA Finals got relegated to the small

425
00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:43,760
Speaker 1: window on most of your TVs. Your sports life really sucks. Yeah,

426
00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:46,520
Speaker 1: I mean, how do you think it's amazing? Almost as

427
00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:48,800
Speaker 1: much if I do, it's amazing. I love sports as

428
00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:50,840
Speaker 1: much a they do. These am almost again, two hundred

429
00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:53,720
Speaker 1: and ten seasons going back to nineteen ninety of my

430
00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:57,679
Speaker 1: six big teams, right, Baseball, Football, basketball, hockey, Syrocuse basketball,

431
00:20:57,680 --> 00:21:00,199
Speaker 1: Serrocuse football. And it didn't have to be that way Smith, No,

432
00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:03,040
Speaker 1: it didn't. I could have picked the Yankes. I could

433
00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:05,440
Speaker 1: have picked the Yankees and the Giants, and I'd have

434
00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:07,600
Speaker 1: had a great sports life. I still would have the Knicks, though,

435
00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:09,360
Speaker 1: but I have that, But it wouldn't matter. I'm like, yeah,

436
00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:11,040
Speaker 1: the nixt they'll win whenever. I got the Yankees to

437
00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:13,159
Speaker 1: win a World Series every few years, the Giants win

438
00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:14,160
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl every few years.

439
00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:15,400
Speaker 4: I got a great sports life.

440
00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:18,439
Speaker 1: But what's the old costsner line? It's the hard that

441
00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:20,800
Speaker 1: makes it great. Yeah, sometimes it's too hard, man, this

442
00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:22,960
Speaker 1: has been really hard treat.

443
00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:25,600
Speaker 4: It's been really hard. It's been really hard.

444
00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:25,880
Speaker 3: Yeah.

445
00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:28,480
Speaker 1: But then when when you actually do have some chance

446
00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:33,959
Speaker 1: at winning, uh, the elusive title, it's it's that, you know,

447
00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:36,919
Speaker 1: fruit that's on the end that you've got to go

448
00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:39,800
Speaker 1: risk life and limb to go get Here's where my heater.

464
00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:22,639
Speaker 1: Like I expect a coach to say, I'm not benching

465
00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:25,240
Speaker 1: my quarterback. He's really good, and the next day, oh, hey,

466
00:22:25,240 --> 00:22:27,160
Speaker 1: guess what my quarterbacks hitting the bench he's terrible.

467
00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:29,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, I plan to trade you. I expect that.

468
00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:33,280
Speaker 1: But when you get by the opportunity to go, Look,

469
00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:36,760
Speaker 1: glasnow was the one Dodger now they they didn't have

470
00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:40,680
Speaker 1: kid gloves for in terms of criticism, because well, he

471
00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:43,080
Speaker 1: tapped out a bunch. I just talked to the GM.

472
00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:45,200
Speaker 1: He's not traded me. Oh sorry that I mean, I'm

473
00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:48,119
Speaker 1: not trading you today. That's gonna meant tomorrow maybe different,

474
00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:52,159
Speaker 1: but today you're still a dodge for school. Congratulations or

475
00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:58,360
Speaker 1: insert whatever picture here. I mean, that's the way life works.

476
00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:02,720
Speaker 1: We love you until we don't, uh now, until we

477
00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:03,560
Speaker 1: love someone just.

478
00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:06,399
Speaker 4: A little bit more. Oh Yeahthony Davis, he knows how

479
00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:09,080
Speaker 4: that feels. Oh sure, AD is great.

480
00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:13,320
Speaker 1: AD is gone with their fingerprints on the knife from

481
00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:19,800
Speaker 1: clutching uh big football story today. The top of the

482
00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:24,320
Speaker 1: NFL Draft has now been upended as Jeremiah Love Heisman

483
00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:28,199
Speaker 1: finalist Notre Dame has announced he is entering the NFL Draft.

484
00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:31,800
Speaker 1: Thanked everybody at nore Dame for the last couple of years.

485
00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:34,679
Speaker 1: He is now headed to the NFL, where there is

486
00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:38,120
Speaker 1: no way he gets out of the top five. Because

487
00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:41,480
Speaker 1: this is a guy who not only is a great player,

488
00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:43,399
Speaker 1: look the guy, he's a do it all running back. Right.

489
00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:47,040
Speaker 1: The guy averaged seven yards of carry the last two years, the.

490
00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:47,920
Speaker 4: Last two years.

491
00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:50,040
Speaker 1: It's what he have I always default to when I

492
00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:52,000
Speaker 1: was a kid, going if he averages seven yards of carry,

493
00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:53,320
Speaker 1: why don't we get the ball on every play? It's

494
00:23:53,320 --> 00:23:54,800
Speaker 1: gonna get seven yards of cary. We're gonna be in

495
00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:56,520
Speaker 1: the end zone. They're never gonna stop us. We're gonna

496
00:23:56,520 --> 00:23:58,439
Speaker 1: win the super Bowl. But this is the type of

497
00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:01,480
Speaker 1: player that he is. He's big, he's asked, he's elusive,

498
00:24:01,760 --> 00:24:03,360
Speaker 1: He's a guy that catches the ball to the backfield.

499
00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:05,560
Speaker 1: He is everything you want out of a running back.

500
00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:08,679
Speaker 1: And while I know that, hey, the general consensus has

501
00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:11,000
Speaker 1: been we don't take running backs early in the draft,

502
00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:14,240
Speaker 1: there are special guys that you take that early. Clearly

503
00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:18,399
Speaker 1: going back in time, boy Bjon Robinson showing you draft

504
00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:22,200
Speaker 1: stock one hundred percent. Jeremiah Love is that next guy.

505
00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:24,720
Speaker 1: And when you are teams picking in the top five

506
00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:28,040
Speaker 1: year team like the Titans or the Jets, you are

507
00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:30,720
Speaker 1: getting a player who is going to give you your

508
00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:34,520
Speaker 1: identity as a team. You're getting a superstar who was

509
00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:37,159
Speaker 1: showing up to sell jerseys. That's the focal point of

510
00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:37,440
Speaker 1: your team.

511
00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:38,240
Speaker 4: It's not just we.

512
00:24:38,200 --> 00:24:42,200
Speaker 1: Got a great edge rusher, we got a great shutdown corner.

513
00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:45,399
Speaker 1: You're getting a superstar running back. And we're kind of

514
00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:47,840
Speaker 1: coming back to the to the running back a little bit.

515
00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:50,760
Speaker 1: In the NFL, coming off of Saquon Barkley. You anybody

516
00:24:50,760 --> 00:24:53,600
Speaker 1: that gets paid should thanks Saquon Barkley for carrying the

517
00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:55,440
Speaker 1: Eagles to the super Bowl last year, because that's why

518
00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:58,119
Speaker 1: guys are getting paid. But he's not getting out of

519
00:24:58,160 --> 00:25:00,000
Speaker 1: the top five, whether it's one of those teams I'm

520
00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:01,360
Speaker 1: or someone else training up.

521
00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:01,800
Speaker 4: To get him.

522
00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:04,480
Speaker 1: But I want to throw this at you because you know,

523
00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:08,760
Speaker 1: you know what should happen. Think about this. Jeremiah Love

524
00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:13,439
Speaker 1: number one overall to the Giants, But the Giants have

525
00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:17,520
Speaker 1: scatabooz Sctataboos, Gottaboys. Yeah, Scataboo's kind of a cultiro. He's

526
00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:19,080
Speaker 1: not a guy that's gonna rip, but he's not gonna

527
00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:21,600
Speaker 1: average five yards to carry. He's a volume running back.

528
00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:26,240
Speaker 1: But but think about this. If you take Jeremiah Love

529
00:25:26,359 --> 00:25:30,399
Speaker 1: number one overall, absolute superstar running back, if you're the

530
00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:35,120
Speaker 1: Giants you go into next season, Jackson Darter is your quarterback.

531
00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:38,280
Speaker 1: He has proven he's the guy. You have Love and

532
00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:45,399
Speaker 1: Scataboo at running back. Neighbors Wandelle Robinson, Theo Johnson. You

533
00:25:45,560 --> 00:25:48,000
Speaker 1: are the Lions of two and a half years ago.

534
00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:51,800
Speaker 1: That's how good this offense can be. Right And oh,

535
00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:54,399
Speaker 1: by the way, Tyron Tracy is really good too. You

536
00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:57,160
Speaker 1: might not need him he's but yeah, he's pretty good,

537
00:25:57,200 --> 00:26:00,359
Speaker 1: but it doesn't matter. Think about that talent level that

538
00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:03,000
Speaker 1: you have. That's the same thing that the Lions said, Well,

539
00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:05,720
Speaker 1: we have David Montgomery, he's really good. We're drafting Jamior Gibbs.

540
00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:06,400
Speaker 4: He is that good.

541
00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:09,480
Speaker 1: He is the lightning to the thunder at Sonic and Knuckles.

542
00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:11,520
Speaker 1: And look at what the Lions have been able to

543
00:26:11,560 --> 00:26:13,880
Speaker 1: do the last couple years. Now this year they're struggling

544
00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:17,200
Speaker 1: a little bit, but offensively they're still great. They have

545
00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:21,200
Speaker 1: superstar playmakers everywhere. The Giants are sort of becoming the

546
00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:24,679
Speaker 1: new Lions. If you make that draft pick, you already

547
00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:26,920
Speaker 1: have a pretty decent defense. You can fix things in

548
00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:29,840
Speaker 1: free agency or defensive line is okay, Gotta get Abdul

549
00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:31,920
Speaker 1: Carter to make sure he is leaving all his bad

550
00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:34,720
Speaker 1: habits behind. But think about that offense if you're the

551
00:26:34,760 --> 00:26:38,399
Speaker 1: Giants going in the next year. Dart Love Scataboo, a

552
00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:41,240
Speaker 1: healthy Molik neighbors Wandale Robinson who's turned into a really

553
00:26:41,280 --> 00:26:46,960
Speaker 1: good player. Johnson like, that's exactly what the Lions were

554
00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:50,359
Speaker 1: looking at a couple of years ago. The star quarterback,

555
00:26:50,440 --> 00:26:52,560
Speaker 1: the two star running backs. One could be a real

556
00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:55,720
Speaker 1: big superstar, two really good wide receivers. One can be

557
00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:57,600
Speaker 1: a superstar, one could be one of the next great

558
00:26:57,640 --> 00:27:01,399
Speaker 1: tight ends in the NFL. Maybe Johnson's not Laporta, but

559
00:27:01,680 --> 00:27:04,520
Speaker 1: that's what the Giants would have at their skilled positions,

560
00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:07,760
Speaker 1: and everybody would foam at the mouth to go coach

561
00:27:07,840 --> 00:27:11,000
Speaker 1: these guys. Like that's so you're thinking, oh, why would

562
00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:13,159
Speaker 1: he take a running back number? Think about the offense

563
00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:15,280
Speaker 1: the Giants could put on the field if they went

564
00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:17,440
Speaker 1: Jeremiah Love number one. No, I like it in theory,

565
00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:22,240
Speaker 1: In theory, is Marcus Freeman the next head coach of

566
00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:27,119
Speaker 1: the Giants while we're at it, because maybe that helps

567
00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:30,679
Speaker 1: solidify that a little bit. Okay, okay, because I'm wondering

568
00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:33,680
Speaker 1: if he's not moving on to other pass keep hearing

569
00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:35,800
Speaker 1: Marcus Freeman Giants a lot like it's like it's not

570
00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:37,560
Speaker 1: one of those things, Ah you heard it had gone away.

571
00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:41,600
Speaker 4: It's like he keeps just like Calin de boor in Michigan.

572
00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:43,520
Speaker 4: You haven't heard the end of Like why is that? People?

573
00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:45,560
Speaker 4: We're not you haven't stopped talking about that?

574
00:27:45,800 --> 00:27:48,920
Speaker 1: Still going on, debor Kelly, you know, I mean, there's

575
00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:51,679
Speaker 1: there's a lot of moving parts in that, but certainly

576
00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:56,560
Speaker 1: Marcus Freeman potentially on the move. With all of this, Now,

577
00:27:56,600 --> 00:27:58,000
Speaker 1: am I drafting a running back?

578
00:27:58,080 --> 00:28:00,560
Speaker 4: Top five? Hell? No, I'm not.

579
00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:03,840
Speaker 1: But I like your theory and I like the way

580
00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:07,000
Speaker 1: that offense looks. Now, you still need five guys up

581
00:28:07,040 --> 00:28:10,960
Speaker 1: front to block, and they don't have one at this point.

582
00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:15,040
Speaker 1: You also, I think, might need to make sure you're

583
00:28:15,119 --> 00:28:19,200
Speaker 1: backing up your quarterback position. Not necessarily in the first round,

584
00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:22,000
Speaker 1: but certainly something you need to address because of Jackson

585
00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:27,640
Speaker 1: Dart's frequent excursions to the blue tent along the way,

586
00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:30,320
Speaker 1: So you need to make sure that that's solidified, whether

587
00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:36,040
Speaker 1: it remains Jameis Winston or another. But for Jeremiah Love, certainly,

588
00:28:36,080 --> 00:28:39,280
Speaker 1: he's acquitted himself as a pass catcher with fifty five

589
00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:41,120
Speaker 1: receptions the last two years.

590
00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:42,480
Speaker 4: You look at his.

591
00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:50,360
Speaker 1: Yards per Carrie per catch. A big explosive player, no question.

592
00:28:50,640 --> 00:28:55,240
Speaker 1: Top ten, Top fifteen, definitely, But Barkley's regression this year

593
00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:58,160
Speaker 1: behind an offensive line, because that's what you're looking at

594
00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:00,320
Speaker 1: with the Giants, right, You got Thomas and a lot

595
00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:02,920
Speaker 1: of question marks on your own line that you still

596
00:29:02,960 --> 00:29:06,080
Speaker 1: need to fortify that before I'd be going all in

597
00:29:06,240 --> 00:29:07,080
Speaker 1: on a running back.

598
00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:08,800
Speaker 4: Now, let me let me just let me just throw

599
00:29:08,880 --> 00:29:09,200
Speaker 4: this body.

600
00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:10,800
Speaker 1: Then, before he say going all on a running back,

601
00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:14,280
Speaker 1: Let's go back to twenty twenty three in the NFL draft,

602
00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:16,600
Speaker 1: where Bryce Young goes number one overall, C J. Stroud

603
00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:20,080
Speaker 1: goes number two, Jean Robinson went eight, and Jamier Gibbs

604
00:29:20,120 --> 00:29:23,760
Speaker 1: went twelve. If you are redrafting now, are those guys

605
00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:26,000
Speaker 1: going to eight and twelve or are they going one two?

606
00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:29,800
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure Bijon Robinson and Jamier Gibbs are going

607
00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:32,480
Speaker 1: one too. If you're redoing the NFL draft, Heinzite's twenty

608
00:29:32,560 --> 00:29:35,160
Speaker 1: twenty right. What I'm saying is to say that I

609
00:29:35,200 --> 00:29:38,120
Speaker 1: don't want to tell look how good these got me.

610
00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:41,160
Speaker 1: Look you can see that. Hey, it works out now

611
00:29:41,320 --> 00:29:44,040
Speaker 1: taking these guys, these guys are huge weapons. Bryce has

612
00:29:44,040 --> 00:29:47,040
Speaker 1: been pretty good, and ric o'doddell and Chew Muhamard have

613
00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:49,080
Speaker 1: been pretty good. No, no, no, I'm just saying in

614
00:29:49,200 --> 00:29:52,040
Speaker 1: theory of the level player they are. Are you taking

615
00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:54,880
Speaker 1: Bryce Young still number one? Are you taking Bijon Robinson?

616
00:29:54,920 --> 00:29:57,320
Speaker 1: Are you taking Bryce Young? Or are you taking Jamiir Gibbs?

617
00:29:58,120 --> 00:30:00,920
Speaker 1: Just one team, not to talking about your fits, what

618
00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:03,040
Speaker 1: you need for a team. Hey, who's the better player

00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:07,040
Speaker 1: So you can take you can take a running back

621
00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:09,040
Speaker 1: number one, and it's and it's it's proven that the

622
00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:11,120
Speaker 1: last couple of years it can work for you. I'm

623
00:30:11,160 --> 00:30:14,440
Speaker 1: always taking the qb Okay, all right, if I'm convinced

624
00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:17,320
Speaker 1: that the But you're always taking the quarterback. If you're

625
00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:20,880
Speaker 1: convinced the quarterback is there, I can find a running back.

626
00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:22,320
Speaker 4: But are you convinced the quarterbacks there?

627
00:30:22,400 --> 00:30:22,680
Speaker 3: This year?

628
00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:25,080

630
00:30:28,640 --> 00:30:30,560
Speaker 4: That's tough. I'm not getting the running back. I'm getting

631
00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:31,680
Speaker 4: a different position. Now.

632
00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:33,200
Speaker 1: Now you're going to going away from running back, go

633
00:30:33,280 --> 00:30:35,800
Speaker 1: away from quarterback. You're like, you're like a GM. That's

634
00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:38,120
Speaker 1: like keeping everything close to the vest. You're like, look

635
00:30:38,120 --> 00:30:40,920
Speaker 1: like running out going safety. I'm going I just said

636
00:30:40,920 --> 00:30:42,240
Speaker 1: he was going to take a running back. Now he

637
00:30:42,280 --> 00:30:43,840
Speaker 1: said he's going to take a quarterback. Now he said

638
00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:46,200
Speaker 1: he's going lineback. I don't know what he's doing there.

639
00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:49,160
Speaker 1: Gotta keep you guessing he's I don't know, I don't

640
00:30:49,160 --> 00:30:52,040
Speaker 1: know he may I'm not committing to either of those positions,

641
00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:55,240
Speaker 1: and Mike Harmon has passed at the top of the draft.
