How are you living? Well, 21 00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:27,760 Speaker 1: I'm getting close to the limit. If they bumped that 22 00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:30,320 Speaker 1: down to five, I think we're both in trouble.

So we can't even have anybody over period. Yeah, 28 00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:54,600 Speaker 1: we got uh. Well, first of all, I'm I think 29 00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:57,440 Speaker 1: I don't think that I'm doing my wife at this 30 00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:01,000 Speaker 1: service by by by talking about her here. But she uh, 31 00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:05,240 Speaker 1: she she has kind of one of those uh jobs 32 00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:08,440 Speaker 1: at one of these companies where she's the one that 33 00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:13,160 Speaker 1: like makes the decisions on on how to do things 34 00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:16,400 Speaker 1: once everything is sort of shut down. Um. She's like 35 00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:19,880 Speaker 1: an operations director for a company with thousands of employees. 36 00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:23,920 Speaker 1: So she's had a pretty busy weekend. Uh. And she 37 00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:26,640 Speaker 1: also like does music at churches and everything, so she 38 00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:29,359 Speaker 1: had one you know, churches aren't gathering, so she had 39 00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:31,720 Speaker 1: one thing free up, and then it's up to her 40 00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:34,440 Speaker 1: to figure out the logistics to how like everybody works 41 00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:36,920 Speaker 1: from home and and all that stuff. At her other jobs, 42 00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:42,720 Speaker 1: so she has a million things to do. I cover sports, 43 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:46,560 Speaker 1: and so my calendar is so blank, Like the only 44 00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:49,480 Speaker 1: inc on my calendar is what I wrote to the 45 00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:52,840 Speaker 1: the actual days in on my whiteboard. So I've got 46 00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:55,240 Speaker 1: i got a nothing going on. So it's kind of 47 00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:57,680 Speaker 1: on me. I homeschool two of my four kids anyway, 48 00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:00,440 Speaker 1: and so it's just you know, bring the their kids 49 00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:03,440 Speaker 1: into the mix and uh and and so it doesn't 50 00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:06,680 Speaker 1: feel too different yet. Um, but my wife is home 51 00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:09,720 Speaker 1: and super busy, and it's it's been pretty fun to 52 00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:12,760 Speaker 1: watch her, uh you know, in business mode because I 53 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:15,480 Speaker 1: don't really get to see it that often. Um. And 54 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:17,440 Speaker 1: uh yeah, I mean we're we're gonna be all right. 55 00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:21,160 Speaker 1: We I'm kind of a disaster minded person. I was 56 00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:22,720 Speaker 1: telling you when we were talking on the phone the 57 00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:26,000 Speaker 1: other day. Um, I always am thinking about the worst 58 00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:30,920 Speaker 1: case scenario. And and usually that's like a psychological issue, right, 59 00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:35,080 Speaker 1: I'm not like an overly paranoid person, but I'll be honest, Like, 60 00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:37,120 Speaker 1: if I put two pieces of bread in the toaster, 61 00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:40,200 Speaker 1: my first thought is, Man, what if the toaster explodes? 62 00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 1: Like what what I do? Then? You know, I'm just 63 00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:46,080 Speaker 1: I'm always thinking of like the worst case scenario. And 64 00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:48,440 Speaker 1: so you know, when I started hearing about this virus 65 00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:50,280 Speaker 1: and everything like that, I was like, what if they 66 00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:53,720 Speaker 1: shut everything down and we were all just had to 67 00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:56,520 Speaker 1: kind of chill at home and do a huge reset 68 00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:59,800 Speaker 1: on society. And then slowly watching that come true has 69 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:03,080 Speaker 1: been like, Okay, well, I guess I'm justified in thinking 70 00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:06,240 Speaker 1: like this a little bit. So I'm finally feel like 71 00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:10,600 Speaker 1: I'm not crazy. That's that's how I feel, um. But 72 00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:13,360 Speaker 1: at the same time, it has been kind of wild 73 00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:16,960 Speaker 1: to watch some other people who maybe weren't prepared for 74 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:19,840 Speaker 1: something like this to happen, deal with this kind of 75 00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:23,000 Speaker 1: stress for the very first time. And I'm I'm concerned 76 00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:27,120 Speaker 1: for humanity. Uh, just watching people out at the grocery store. 77 00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:28,960 Speaker 1: And I was on the phone with you when you're 78 00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:31,200 Speaker 1: driving through the Costco parking lot the other day, that 79 00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:35,760 Speaker 1: seemed like quite a task. Oh dude, it was a zoo. 80 00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:41,680 Speaker 1: And Okay, so I had never envisioned a world where 81 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:46,080 Speaker 1: Costco would be out of stuff like that. That just 82 00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:50,920 Speaker 1: didn't even cross my mind that that were even possible. 83 00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:57,400 Speaker 1: That's so ah, man, Like, it's it's just tough. It's 84 00:04:57,440 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 1: just tough, man, and I I knew, I think we 85 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:06,440 Speaker 1: have talked talked about this for a while. I knew 86 00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:09,360 Speaker 1: that where we were at was was coming because I've 87 00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:11,480 Speaker 1: talked to so many people. Oh it's just a Fluid's 88 00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:14,640 Speaker 1: just this is just that. And I knew that where 89 00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:17,760 Speaker 1: we're at now and where we're going, which is probably 90 00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:20,479 Speaker 1: a full quarantine, I knew it was coming. I knew 91 00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:25,040 Speaker 1: it was coming, but I hoped. In my mind, I 92 00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:29,520 Speaker 1: did not envision a world without sports until Rudy Gobert 93 00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:33,440 Speaker 1: came out when we found out that he had the coronavirus, 94 00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:36,080 Speaker 1: and that was what the day before the PAC twelve 95 00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:39,599 Speaker 1: tournament was. The PAC twelve Tournament had started that day 96 00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:43,280 Speaker 1: on that Tuesday, and the next day the teams with 97 00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:47,400 Speaker 1: the boys were supposed to start playing, so I thought, okay, cool, 98 00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:52,520 Speaker 1: they'll just play without fans. And then once the NBA canceled, 99 00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:55,200 Speaker 1: I was like, oh, everything's done. There will be no 100 00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:58,760 Speaker 1: more sports played. And that happened the same time as 101 00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:03,680 Speaker 1: Tom Hanks announced he tested positive. And Tom Hanks, I mean, 102 00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:08,800 Speaker 1: I feel like, is the most if not if not 103 00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 1: the most famous celebrity in America. He's top five in 104 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 1: my in my opinion, I mean just because he his 105 00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:24,000 Speaker 1: career has spanned forty years and it's in kids movies 106 00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:28,160 Speaker 1: as well as like comedies. And I think he's like 107 00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:32,240 Speaker 1: currently relevant, has always been so um it would be 108 00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:38,000 Speaker 1: like it would be but massarily as popular. Yeah yeah, 109 00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:42,200 Speaker 1: I mean Toy Story What what did Toy Story four 110 00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:44,400 Speaker 1: do with the box office? That might be like the 111 00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:49,839 Speaker 1: last blockbuster movie if we never get movie theaters back. Well, well, 112 00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:53,159 Speaker 1: his his voice, but of course, I mean you'll you'll 113 00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:55,960 Speaker 1: remember his voice. The kids will remember his voice. They 114 00:06:56,000 --> 00:07:00,240 Speaker 1: may not remember him it's faith, but all of us 115 00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:05,240 Speaker 1: older people will for sure remember it. Yeah, I mean, 116 00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:08,760 Speaker 1: I so, I think, but that's who has like the 117 00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:12,160 Speaker 1: purchasing power of the decision making, right, it's adults. So 118 00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:14,480 Speaker 1: it's it's probably everybody like twenty five and up and 119 00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:17,760 Speaker 1: to everybody twenty five and up. Tom Hanks like he 120 00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:20,480 Speaker 1: just was in the Mr. Rogers movie. He was just 121 00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:24,600 Speaker 1: in Toy Story four like he and and he has 122 00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:28,880 Speaker 1: been he has been like box office gold are entire 123 00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:33,280 Speaker 1: It's like big, I mean every everything that the man 124 00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:36,920 Speaker 1: has been in so many movies that we know, love 125 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:39,680 Speaker 1: and enjoy and consider some of the greatest movies of 126 00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:44,240 Speaker 1: all time Forrest Gump. I mean he's played legendary characters. 127 00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:49,600 Speaker 1: But um, yeah so but but no sports. What is 128 00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:55,760 Speaker 1: your level of unhappiness without sports right now? Ralph? Uh? 129 00:07:55,960 --> 00:08:01,760 Speaker 1: I mean, ah, I don't know. Uh, I kind of 130 00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:06,240 Speaker 1: welcome the reset. I think that this is, uh, this 131 00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:08,320 Speaker 1: is gonna be really really rough for people who are 132 00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:12,120 Speaker 1: kind of covering beats. Um it's it's gonna be rough 133 00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:14,760 Speaker 1: for quite a few friends of ours who make a 134 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:18,680 Speaker 1: living doing this U And so my mind is kind 135 00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:22,120 Speaker 1: of with them. Uh. When when I think about, you know, 136 00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:25,240 Speaker 1: what my level of satisfaction is or isn't, I immediately 137 00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:28,600 Speaker 1: shift into you know, there are so many cottage industries 138 00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:32,520 Speaker 1: built up on the mega industry of sports, especially in 139 00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:34,800 Speaker 1: content creation. You know, this is most of the people 140 00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:37,440 Speaker 1: that I associate with in my daily life, and so 141 00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:40,640 Speaker 1: you know, I kind of worry for them. But I 142 00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:43,720 Speaker 1: mean as far as just like a season of no 143 00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:48,800 Speaker 1: sports consumption, I I look at it for me personally, 144 00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:52,839 Speaker 1: it's just an opportunity, you know what I always think about, like, 145 00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:56,320 Speaker 1: you know, my calendar gets full of like all the 146 00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:58,880 Speaker 1: different games that are being played, all the different deadlines, 147 00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:01,120 Speaker 1: all the different you know, rooting is this now, Recruiting 148 00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:04,280 Speaker 1: is is in that season now? Um, you know, the 149 00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:08,520 Speaker 1: the NFL calendar year started um today and and all 150 00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:11,360 Speaker 1: those things. Uh that I kind of just look at 151 00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:14,319 Speaker 1: it as an opportunity for a reset and a refresh 152 00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:17,199 Speaker 1: and to check in on some people. UM. So I 153 00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:20,440 Speaker 1: think it'll be a while before I really feel sort 154 00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:23,920 Speaker 1: of the anti nous and the cravings to just turn 155 00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:25,880 Speaker 1: on a game and check out. Not that we can 156 00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:29,600 Speaker 1: really even do that because you know, we create content 157 00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:32,600 Speaker 1: based off of what we consume, so we're never really 158 00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:38,200 Speaker 1: watching sports just to relax, um. And so what you know, 159 00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:41,520 Speaker 1: I think that that craving has sort of been beat 160 00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:44,240 Speaker 1: out of me over time of just doing the job 161 00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:47,360 Speaker 1: that I do. I'm okay, I'm I'm gonna be all 162 00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:49,560 Speaker 1: right for a while, just because I think it's a 163 00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:53,880 Speaker 1: really cool opportunity, um to just touch base with with 164 00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:56,000 Speaker 1: a bunch of people that maybe you haven't get to 165 00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:59,000 Speaker 1: some things that were that were maybe shuffled down your 166 00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:01,480 Speaker 1: to do live. You know, look my kids in the eyes, 167 00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:04,840 Speaker 1: checking with them, see how they're doing. And uh and 168 00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:07,280 Speaker 1: and you know, get get on the phone with you 169 00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:11,679 Speaker 1: every time, you know, some something breaks and just I 170 00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:14,680 Speaker 1: don't know. I see so many opportunities out there to 171 00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:18,840 Speaker 1: do valuable things. Um that I'm I'm not super worried 172 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:21,600 Speaker 1: about sports being gone. But I'll tell you what if 173 00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:26,520 Speaker 1: if if I can't get out, um and watch a 174 00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:28,640 Speaker 1: high school track meet in the next three or four months, 175 00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:31,000 Speaker 1: just get out on the grass, you know, be around 176 00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:34,000 Speaker 1: like live sports. That's that's I think what's gonna do 177 00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:37,520 Speaker 1: me in is being out there among people, the sites, 178 00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:40,440 Speaker 1: the smells, the sounds, all that. You know, That's just 179 00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:42,400 Speaker 1: become part of my daily routine. And I don't know 180 00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:45,240 Speaker 1: how long I can go without without being out at 181 00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:49,440 Speaker 1: an event. Dude. That's the hard part. And for me, 182 00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:54,319 Speaker 1: it's not even so much necessarily the actual events for 183 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:57,560 Speaker 1: other people. It's the events for my family. Like I 184 00:10:57,679 --> 00:11:00,839 Speaker 1: missed going to my kids games, that's right, yep, I'm 185 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:05,400 Speaker 1: just going to practice like like that gives me so 186 00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:10,600 Speaker 1: much enjoyment that that being gone. It really really hurts 187 00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:12,760 Speaker 1: my heart a little bit. And you were you were 188 00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:17,599 Speaker 1: going to most of these California um CIF basketball Championship 189 00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:21,600 Speaker 1: yes off games, right, Like we are super excited about that, Dude. 190 00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:23,760 Speaker 1: I saw one of the greatest high school games of 191 00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:27,079 Speaker 1: all times that I've ever seen in my entire life. 192 00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:32,160 Speaker 1: Sierra Kenyan versus Atawanda. Um, I hope they replay it somewhere. 193 00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:34,319 Speaker 1: I mean it, it is part of the n f 194 00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:38,960 Speaker 1: HS like package where you can watch it from anywhere 195 00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:42,760 Speaker 1: that's high school streaming sports. But I hope they put 196 00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:45,840 Speaker 1: it on FS one or something. That was incredible. One 197 00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:49,480 Speaker 1: of the greatest high school games I've ever seen. But um, yeah, 198 00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:54,000 Speaker 1: so and and my and my son who works out 199 00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:56,640 Speaker 1: at some of these gems with other pro players and 200 00:11:56,679 --> 00:11:58,839 Speaker 1: all of this stuff. He's like, Dad, can I kick? 201 00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:02,920 Speaker 1: Can I go work out at the jam? I'm like, oh, Son, no, 202 00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:06,000 Speaker 1: not right now. We got it. So I've turned a 203 00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:10,920 Speaker 1: garage into a workout facility or one of my garages, 204 00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:16,040 Speaker 1: and I'm actually considering getting a peloton at this point. Hey, 205 00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:19,560 Speaker 1: have you have you seen all these people? Um, because 206 00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:21,920 Speaker 1: you know you're around your kids a lot. I'm around 207 00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:23,960 Speaker 1: my kids a whole lot. Have you seen all these 208 00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:27,160 Speaker 1: people tweeting some variation of like thirty minutes into homeschooling 209 00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:30,520 Speaker 1: my kids teachers need to be paid a million dollars 210 00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:32,080 Speaker 1: a year. Do you think I think people are gonna 211 00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:34,520 Speaker 1: start to kind of realize what it is that teachers 212 00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:37,719 Speaker 1: do all day with their children. Think when we get 213 00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:43,440 Speaker 1: some new appreciation, finally people are happy to kick their 214 00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:45,000 Speaker 1: kids out of the car on the first day of 215 00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:48,040 Speaker 1: school when August or September rolls around. But I think, 216 00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:50,199 Speaker 1: I think that this is gonna be, you know, with 217 00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:53,760 Speaker 1: teachers actually sending the material home for the parents to 218 00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:56,839 Speaker 1: go through. You're you're gonna you're gonna learn some things 219 00:12:56,880 --> 00:12:59,400 Speaker 1: about your kid and how they learn and what they retain. 220 00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:02,520 Speaker 1: I think I think we're gonna build up some sympathy 221 00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:04,920 Speaker 1: for a few different professions here, one of which I 222 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:07,320 Speaker 1: hope is the people who check out and bag your 223 00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:10,839 Speaker 1: groceries at the store because they are getting their kicked 224 00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:15,200 Speaker 1: right now. I yeah, dude, dude, They're like yo um 225 00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:17,760 Speaker 1: I checked out and the lady was like, yo, I've 226 00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:20,120 Speaker 1: been bagging groceries for eight hours, raight, I barely even 227 00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:24,160 Speaker 1: had time to peet. I was like, good god, dude. 228 00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:27,959 Speaker 1: And these grocery stores, they're excited because people are hoarding 229 00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:34,040 Speaker 1: food and supplies. So for the first time, probably ever, 230 00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:36,160 Speaker 1: a lot of these change because a lot of them 231 00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:38,560 Speaker 1: are new. I know that things have happened before in life. 232 00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:42,520 Speaker 1: They have raided the stores and hoarded everything. Where you 233 00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:47,680 Speaker 1: have Costco shelves bear Costco shelves. I went to a Costco, Dude, 234 00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:50,839 Speaker 1: they're the only thing they had removed the palettes off 235 00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:54,960 Speaker 1: the floor. That's how That's how bare some of these 236 00:13:55,200 --> 00:14:00,280 Speaker 1: aisles were. But the n C Double A has made 237 00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:04,640 Speaker 1: things bear as well. Um, with no with no sports, 238 00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:09,839 Speaker 1: no recruiting on and off campus. But then double A. 239 00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:15,840 Speaker 1: Now they did the right thing supposedly in extending eligibility 240 00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:19,120 Speaker 1: for seniors if they want to come back for spring 241 00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:23,920 Speaker 1: sports that does not include basketball, that does not include 242 00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:28,400 Speaker 1: well men's and women's basketball. We're talking about baseball, softball, 243 00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:32,240 Speaker 1: across track and field. These athletes who won't get to 244 00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:35,640 Speaker 1: compete at all. What do you think about that throughout? 245 00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:39,440 Speaker 1: Because I'm pessimistic because even though it's the right thing 246 00:14:39,520 --> 00:14:42,160 Speaker 1: to do, the n C Double A still has an 247 00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:47,520 Speaker 1: opportunity to screw this up royally. Yeah, I'm I think 248 00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:52,840 Speaker 1: because it's unprecedented. I'm trying to extend some some grace. 249 00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:56,840 Speaker 1: Um My hope is that they looked the other way 250 00:14:56,880 --> 00:14:59,400 Speaker 1: on a whole bunch of stuff and uh, and just 251 00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:01,720 Speaker 1: make sure where that the people who want to come 252 00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:06,360 Speaker 1: back can come back that they raised the scholarship limit accordingly. Um, 253 00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:08,840 Speaker 1: this is gonna have long standing effect. This is a 254 00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:13,800 Speaker 1: major moment in American history. And and I think that, um, 255 00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:19,520 Speaker 1: we're gonna see just how agile the n C double 256 00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:22,040 Speaker 1: A can be. And I think we're also going to 257 00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:26,120 Speaker 1: find out just how meaningless some of the restrictions that 258 00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:30,160 Speaker 1: they had in place were in the first place. You know, 259 00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:34,080 Speaker 1: we they haven't needed to bend on a lot of 260 00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:38,920 Speaker 1: the things that that they deal with up until this point. 261 00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:41,160 Speaker 1: This is going to force them to be more agile. 262 00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:44,320 Speaker 1: And then I think once we all have the realization 263 00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:47,000 Speaker 1: that the n C double A has the agility to 264 00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:49,720 Speaker 1: make some of these changes on the fly because they 265 00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:52,560 Speaker 1: had to, then I think the expectations of what the 266 00:15:52,680 --> 00:15:56,480 Speaker 1: n C double A is and does in other situations 267 00:15:56,560 --> 00:15:59,800 Speaker 1: that require a little bit of understanding and grace, like 268 00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:04,160 Speaker 1: players moving to be closer to home, uh, you know, 269 00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:08,320 Speaker 1: but not getting there, um, not getting automatic eligibility while 270 00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:11,160 Speaker 1: somebody else who just got beat out and uh and 271 00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:14,200 Speaker 1: wants a chance to start and transfer somewhere else does 272 00:16:14,320 --> 00:16:18,280 Speaker 1: get immediate eligibility. I think that we're we're gonna see um, 273 00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:20,720 Speaker 1: we're gonna see the n C double A. Unable to 274 00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:24,680 Speaker 1: make excuses for for some of these decisions moving forward. 275 00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:27,560 Speaker 1: But yeah, you made a decision on this eligibility thing 276 00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:30,960 Speaker 1: super quick, but it takes you a long time to 277 00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:33,920 Speaker 1: figure out about one time transfers takes you years to 278 00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:38,560 Speaker 1: figure out about that. Well, back up offensive lineman for 279 00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:41,120 Speaker 1: the last few years for Arizona State kid Kote, he 280 00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:44,520 Speaker 1: just got you know, I think it took like three months. 281 00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:47,200 Speaker 1: It went well into spring practice of getting a sixth 282 00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:50,000 Speaker 1: year of eligibility for him when he you know, he 283 00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:53,160 Speaker 1: broke his foot and missed most of his what would 284 00:16:53,200 --> 00:16:57,320 Speaker 1: have been his senior year. You know, that individual case 285 00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:00,600 Speaker 1: takes over three months to figure out, you know, what 286 00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:02,320 Speaker 1: they're gonna do, and he has to kind of stand 287 00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:05,399 Speaker 1: on the sideline at spring practices and wonder what his 288 00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:09,719 Speaker 1: fate will be, uh, you know, meet which and then 289 00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:13,280 Speaker 1: if he's in school, is he on scholarship or not. 290 00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:15,560 Speaker 1: The whole thing is just super weird. And then you know, 291 00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:18,600 Speaker 1: this goes down and they're all able to immediately say, hey, 292 00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:21,639 Speaker 1: if you play spring sports in the in the twenty 293 00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:25,440 Speaker 1: twenty season, you know, then you're good, You're good to 294 00:17:25,480 --> 00:17:29,240 Speaker 1: come back. Um. And I think that some of this 295 00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:32,359 Speaker 1: is just going to become like, oh, I don't know, 296 00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:35,200 Speaker 1: it's just it's tricky. You know. I'm not one of 297 00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:37,359 Speaker 1: the people that that comes out and says, you know, 298 00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:40,120 Speaker 1: I am kind of anti authority. And I pushed back 299 00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:41,760 Speaker 1: on Larry Scott in the pack to all of a lot. 300 00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:43,879 Speaker 1: But I think the n C Double A does have 301 00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:46,600 Speaker 1: a tough job. And there are a lot of people 302 00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:48,040 Speaker 1: that work for the n C Double A, and a 303 00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:50,200 Speaker 1: lot of them have good intentions. And I met and 304 00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:52,720 Speaker 1: interviewed a couple of people who are part of the 305 00:17:52,800 --> 00:17:55,960 Speaker 1: rules Committee and and and do other things for the 306 00:17:56,080 --> 00:17:58,159 Speaker 1: n C Double A and and and they're they're not 307 00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:02,640 Speaker 1: out to rue in anybody's day or anything like that. Um, 308 00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:07,920 Speaker 1: But I would I would disagree at times. I just 309 00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:09,280 Speaker 1: I think a lot of the people in n C 310 00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:11,440 Speaker 1: Double A are just kind of low level employees. They're 311 00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:14,840 Speaker 1: not sitting in some dark you know, trying to hatch 312 00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:17,560 Speaker 1: up ways to screw things up. I think Mark Emmert 313 00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:21,960 Speaker 1: deserves every bit of criticism he's ever received as the 314 00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:24,440 Speaker 1: face of that organization. But a lot of the times 315 00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:27,240 Speaker 1: it's just a bunch of low level people sitting in 316 00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:30,280 Speaker 1: a room dealing with the restrictions that they were kind 317 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:33,919 Speaker 1: of given that are very detached from the situation altogether. Uh. 318 00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:37,320 Speaker 1: And then the n C double as an organization ends 319 00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:40,680 Speaker 1: up taking the blowback for it and absorbing absorbing it. 320 00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:42,959 Speaker 1: And Mark Emmert has pretty much shown that he's got 321 00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:45,800 Speaker 1: the tolerance to deal with all of the all of 322 00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:49,359 Speaker 1: the blowback and the and the nonsense, and so, you know, 323 00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:52,320 Speaker 1: I don't know. I think I think that they will 324 00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:54,680 Speaker 1: show that they have agility that they didn't know that 325 00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:57,879 Speaker 1: they had before, and I hope that that positively affects 326 00:18:57,920 --> 00:19:00,719 Speaker 1: them moving forward. I don't have the hope that they 327 00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:03,960 Speaker 1: will do the right thing on because they've proven that 328 00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:07,680 Speaker 1: they will get stuff halfway right and then screw it 329 00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:12,760 Speaker 1: up or screw it up entirely. Because this coronavirus is 330 00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:15,920 Speaker 1: going to bring up some eligibility questions, like we we 331 00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:20,080 Speaker 1: already said, So if they don't increase the scholarship limits 332 00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:24,000 Speaker 1: properly commensurate with the number of players who come back, 333 00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:29,120 Speaker 1: that is going to be disastrous for high school recruits 334 00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:36,639 Speaker 1: who deserve athletic scholarships but then can't get them because 335 00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:41,719 Speaker 1: the school is under a scholarship restriction. That's that's we're 336 00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:45,200 Speaker 1: gonna be dealing with baseball to baseball is already weird. Yeah, 337 00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:50,640 Speaker 1: they have eleven point seven scholarships for thirty five guys. Yeah, 338 00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:55,560 Speaker 1: I never understood that that that is bizarre anyway. And 339 00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:58,320 Speaker 1: so now you're going to run into situations where guys 340 00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:03,000 Speaker 1: who were junior who were hoping to get drafted, um, 341 00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:06,400 Speaker 1: either don't or the guesswork is just really really shoddy 342 00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:09,879 Speaker 1: by all these Major League Baseball teams trying to figure 343 00:20:09,880 --> 00:20:12,560 Speaker 1: out their rosters. So you'll have people coming back, which 344 00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:16,200 Speaker 1: will stifle the sophomores and freshmen. Underneath it, it could 345 00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:19,720 Speaker 1: who would have gone on full of scholarship, because on 346 00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:23,080 Speaker 1: baseball teams there's only like three maybe four guys who 347 00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:25,760 Speaker 1: are on full of scholarship, and those are your studs. 348 00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:28,040 Speaker 1: And you might have a guy that's a thirty three 349 00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:31,440 Speaker 1: round pick out of high school decide that the college 350 00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:33,639 Speaker 1: that he was gonna go to all of a sudden 351 00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:36,520 Speaker 1: is getting two or three seniors back that they weren't 352 00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:39,840 Speaker 1: going to get back because they were leaving after their 353 00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:42,680 Speaker 1: junior year. And that high school kid might go rough 354 00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:45,480 Speaker 1: it in the miners instead of going to college. It's 355 00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:52,640 Speaker 1: gonna affect people's trajectories for their entire hire baseball career. Yep, yep. 356 00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:54,760 Speaker 1: And the other thing where the n C Double A 357 00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:58,680 Speaker 1: can screw it up is schools are closed, right And 358 00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:02,080 Speaker 1: I don't think and people have really factored in this. 359 00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:05,880 Speaker 1: So like my my daughter school l m U is closed. 360 00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:08,119 Speaker 1: Kids got to get out of the dorms and everything. 361 00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:12,040 Speaker 1: What if you are a kid who was like me, 362 00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:15,720 Speaker 1: I went to college, the family wasn't in a great 363 00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:20,479 Speaker 1: financial position. They moved because I didn't need a room anymore. 364 00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:24,800 Speaker 1: They downtized. So now where do I go If I'm 365 00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:27,320 Speaker 1: out of school and I can't stay in the dorms 366 00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:32,520 Speaker 1: or I can't um or I have to move out 367 00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:35,480 Speaker 1: of my campus living or something. Where do I go? 368 00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:39,320 Speaker 1: Because there are a lot of low income families, like 369 00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:42,879 Speaker 1: they were in a much worse situation than my family was. 370 00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:45,080 Speaker 1: Because we still had a place to live. My family 371 00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:46,840 Speaker 1: was able to come up to games. They drove up 372 00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:49,560 Speaker 1: all the time. We didn't have money, but we weren't 373 00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:53,760 Speaker 1: like we were we were broke, we weren't poor. And 374 00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:58,520 Speaker 1: you you're wondering if somebody accepting what is essentially charity 375 00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:05,440 Speaker 1: could be misconstrued as illegal benefits. Correct, and now his 376 00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:08,720 Speaker 1: player ends up suspended, gotta pay money back? Oh because 377 00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:11,840 Speaker 1: we couldn't eat for correct? Like what do you Because 378 00:22:11,880 --> 00:22:16,000 Speaker 1: remember part of being quarantined is you actually need disposable 379 00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:21,080 Speaker 1: income to to buy groceries with restaurants closed, or you're 380 00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:24,920 Speaker 1: gonna be spending way more money ordering take out. So 381 00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:27,840 Speaker 1: if you can't cook or don't have disposable income to 382 00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:33,200 Speaker 1: stock up on resources, you are screwed. Like like like you, Ralph, 383 00:22:33,440 --> 00:22:37,080 Speaker 1: you you have a ton of supplies at at home. 384 00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:42,920 Speaker 1: I because a prepper gave them to you. Yeah. So 385 00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:46,320 Speaker 1: so my uncle, My uncle is my best friend in 386 00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:50,680 Speaker 1: the world. He's seventy three year old Vietnam veteran. He's 387 00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:52,920 Speaker 1: the best man at my wedding. Uh, he's he's a 388 00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:55,560 Speaker 1: good dude. But he was living down here by himself 389 00:22:56,240 --> 00:22:58,760 Speaker 1: in cast of Grand Arizone. He's about forty five minutes 390 00:22:58,840 --> 00:23:01,040 Speaker 1: from me, and I was checking in on him every day. 391 00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:02,800 Speaker 1: But he got kind of bored and wanted to move 392 00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:06,760 Speaker 1: in with his daughter and son in law in southern Colorado. Um, 393 00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:09,520 Speaker 1: and he sold his house. But they told him like, hey, 394 00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:11,560 Speaker 1: in order for this deal to go through, the people 395 00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:13,200 Speaker 1: that want to move in want to move in within 396 00:23:13,320 --> 00:23:16,080 Speaker 1: two weeks. And uh, and so I had to go 397 00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:19,119 Speaker 1: over there and help him pack up all his stuff 398 00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:21,920 Speaker 1: in two weeks. And he's kind of a paranoid guy. 399 00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:24,520 Speaker 1: He's kind of a doomsday prepper. And he couldn't fit 400 00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:25,680 Speaker 1: at all in the U haul. So I had to 401 00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:28,119 Speaker 1: move all of his things into my garage. And so 402 00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:31,280 Speaker 1: before any of this coronavirus, before I even heard the 403 00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:37,000 Speaker 1: word coronavirus, I had a garage full of like like 404 00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:42,520 Speaker 1: three palettes of wax beans and ramen and powdered milk 405 00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:46,960 Speaker 1: and all this and tomato sauce and so it that 406 00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:50,000 Speaker 1: it looked like I was prepping for some kind of disaster. 407 00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:53,280 Speaker 1: And then the disaster came. And so I have about 408 00:23:53,320 --> 00:23:56,280 Speaker 1: two years worth of cleaning supplies and a bunch of 409 00:23:56,400 --> 00:24:00,280 Speaker 1: canned vegetables to to hold me over. So I'm good 410 00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:03,359 Speaker 1: and uh and and yeah, you wonder you know I 411 00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:06,479 Speaker 1: went to Arizona State University. If I hear that one 412 00:24:06,520 --> 00:24:09,760 Speaker 1: of these kids it needs food, you know, if I 413 00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:11,760 Speaker 1: turn around and I give him one of these palettes 414 00:24:11,800 --> 00:24:15,680 Speaker 1: of wax beans, Is that an n C double a violation? 415 00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:20,200 Speaker 1: You know? Yeah, And that's one of those things I'm 416 00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:22,720 Speaker 1: not gonna let anybody start and so I'm not I'm 417 00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:27,080 Speaker 1: not snitching. I'm not telling whatever it is. Um, what 418 00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:29,960 Speaker 1: did you think about on and off campus recruiting being 419 00:24:30,040 --> 00:24:35,880 Speaker 1: suspended until but that clearly doesn't stop the phone calls? Yeah, 420 00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:42,640 Speaker 1: because thy Thompson just committed to Oregon the quarterback. Yeah. 421 00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:45,360 Speaker 1: So first, thy Thompson is somebody out in Arizona who 422 00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:48,639 Speaker 1: I've got a chance to get to know, um, and 423 00:24:48,760 --> 00:24:51,879 Speaker 1: have also watched him him play quite a bit. Uh. 424 00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:56,359 Speaker 1: He's a big kid. He's physically really well developed, huge 425 00:24:56,480 --> 00:24:59,359 Speaker 1: broad shoulders. He was six ft for going into his 426 00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:01,280 Speaker 1: sophomore year of high school and he's just sort of 427 00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:03,639 Speaker 1: his body's just sort of filled out. He looks like 428 00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:07,600 Speaker 1: a college player right now. Um. He's very fundamentally sound, 429 00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:10,080 Speaker 1: makes good throws, and he lifted his team to a 430 00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:13,280 Speaker 1: ford A state championship last year when they probably had 431 00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:16,440 Speaker 1: no business even being there. He's the biggest guy on 432 00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:20,000 Speaker 1: the field, including his offensive line, and so he's definitely 433 00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:23,000 Speaker 1: a really really special football player. Um. Um, I think 434 00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:25,119 Speaker 1: that that that's a really great pickup for Oregon, and 435 00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:27,000 Speaker 1: we're gonna try to get him on the show, maybe 436 00:25:27,040 --> 00:25:30,600 Speaker 1: even this show, um, because you know, I'm sure he's 437 00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:32,440 Speaker 1: not doesn't have much going on. I'll give him a 438 00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:35,160 Speaker 1: call and see if we can't record an interview with him. 439 00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:39,080 Speaker 1: But the thing that my mind automatically shifted to, and 440 00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:41,240 Speaker 1: I ran this by you and and you're kind of 441 00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:44,119 Speaker 1: in the same boat, is and I hate saying it, 442 00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:48,560 Speaker 1: but this may benefit the Back twelve as far as 443 00:25:49,359 --> 00:25:52,840 Speaker 1: the damn has just been broken and all of our 444 00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:56,080 Speaker 1: best players are headed to the SEC A, SEC Big 445 00:25:56,160 --> 00:25:59,159 Speaker 1: ten all over the country. Um, But people in the 446 00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:01,560 Speaker 1: Pac twelve foot print might want to stay a little 447 00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:04,480 Speaker 1: bit closer to home now that their parents realize that 448 00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:10,639 Speaker 1: a disaster like the current situation that we're facing is 449 00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:13,160 Speaker 1: much more difficult when your kid is out at Rutger's 450 00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:15,960 Speaker 1: or your kid is at the University of Virginia and 451 00:26:16,119 --> 00:26:19,520 Speaker 1: you live in southern California, you know, And so there's 452 00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:21,879 Speaker 1: there's that element to it. And then I think you 453 00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:25,119 Speaker 1: brought something up of could it actually hurt some of 454 00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:29,440 Speaker 1: the schools that are recruiting in major metropolitan areas where 455 00:26:30,359 --> 00:26:32,600 Speaker 1: there was a little bit of an outbreak or would 456 00:26:32,600 --> 00:26:38,440 Speaker 1: the outbreak originally like Seattle, it's it's got to be 457 00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:42,680 Speaker 1: saying that, but it's possible. Yeah, you you have Seattle 458 00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:48,040 Speaker 1: that maybe, um, you know, that's been heavily affected the 459 00:26:48,200 --> 00:26:51,200 Speaker 1: negative recruiting. That can go onto the AO. Hey o, man, 460 00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:53,879 Speaker 1: it rains out there, you might catch Corona. You know, 461 00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:58,240 Speaker 1: you you are probably you know. I could see a 462 00:26:58,359 --> 00:27:05,520 Speaker 1: Dante Williams saying that down at USC. Yeah, yeah, I 463 00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:08,520 Speaker 1: can see that happening too. He's not gonna listen to this. 464 00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:15,320 Speaker 1: He's blocked me on Twitter. So it's funny the things 465 00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:19,119 Speaker 1: I hear from other Pack twelve coaches about this dude 466 00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:25,840 Speaker 1: is is um very interesting. He's a good recruiter. Let's 467 00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:29,359 Speaker 1: leave it at that. Yeah yeah, yeah, because we we 468 00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:31,600 Speaker 1: we don't want to blow up anybody else's spot. But 469 00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:35,919 Speaker 1: other coaches in the Pac twelve, even coaches on staff 470 00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:39,320 Speaker 1: that he's been on, they give you that, you know, 471 00:27:40,560 --> 00:27:45,600 Speaker 1: he does a really good job recruiting. Yeah right, that's 472 00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:50,639 Speaker 1: that's what they tell you. Um. So moving on to 473 00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:57,960 Speaker 1: the next thing, um, Arizona hires a well, actually the 474 00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:02,120 Speaker 1: recruiting thing, I agree with you that they are going 475 00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:04,639 Speaker 1: to that it could help the pactual schools, could be 476 00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:09,920 Speaker 1: a big deal, could be good for the conference generally 477 00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:14,160 Speaker 1: all the way around. So but but we shall see. Um, 478 00:28:15,800 --> 00:28:18,520 Speaker 1: what did you oh? You were the one who brought 479 00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:23,239 Speaker 1: this up to me about Mike Leech's comments from UM 480 00:28:23,960 --> 00:28:27,200 Speaker 1: from Dillard, from Andre Dillard the kid he was drafted 481 00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:31,639 Speaker 1: in the first round last year, right, I believe, or 482 00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:34,960 Speaker 1: either the first or second round or last or last year? 483 00:28:35,680 --> 00:28:40,760 Speaker 1: And UM about Mike Leach moving on from the Cougars 484 00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:45,520 Speaker 1: to go to Mississippi State, Dillard said, I had no 485 00:28:45,680 --> 00:28:47,800 Speaker 1: idea that he would leave. He struck me as a 486 00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:50,280 Speaker 1: guy who hated change. But you could tell by that. 487 00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:53,080 Speaker 1: You could tell by the offense he ran. But I 488 00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:56,360 Speaker 1: was really happy to hear the news because the boys 489 00:28:56,440 --> 00:29:00,120 Speaker 1: back there needed to change. Mike Leach it exact the 490 00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:03,120 Speaker 1: coach that you'd like to play for. He's just one 491 00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:06,040 Speaker 1: of those guys who gets results, but the way he 492 00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:09,160 Speaker 1: gets results is frowned upon by the players. He never 493 00:29:09,320 --> 00:29:11,760 Speaker 1: gave off any vibe that he cared about his players 494 00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:15,360 Speaker 1: on a personal level. Playing for him felt like a 495 00:29:15,440 --> 00:29:19,480 Speaker 1: bit of a dictatorship. It personally bothered me. What kind 496 00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:21,880 Speaker 1: of coaches throw, what kind of coach throws his team, 497 00:29:22,120 --> 00:29:24,440 Speaker 1: his entire team under the bus when things go wrong, 498 00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:29,040 Speaker 1: but he never put any blame on himself, calling out players, 499 00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:32,479 Speaker 1: called him fat, slow, and says he needs new players. 500 00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:34,880 Speaker 1: He did that several times when I was there. He 501 00:29:35,040 --> 00:29:38,680 Speaker 1: just wasn't leadership. He compared us to a junior college 502 00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:42,680 Speaker 1: women's softball team. I was like, dude, you need to 503 00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:46,280 Speaker 1: chill out. The guys were offended by that. Anyway. I'm 504 00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:48,320 Speaker 1: just happy to see he's moved on, but I do 505 00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:51,480 Speaker 1: appreciate him giving me the opportunity to play there at 506 00:29:51,760 --> 00:29:56,600 Speaker 1: WS Okay. So so many things that unpack right here. 507 00:29:57,440 --> 00:30:00,960 Speaker 1: Number one, though I feel vindicat because we did. We 508 00:30:01,040 --> 00:30:03,360 Speaker 1: did have some people reach out to us and say, like, hey, 509 00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:07,640 Speaker 1: the players aren't soft like you guys when you say 510 00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:11,440 Speaker 1: Mike Leach never took responsibility for anything, and he was 511 00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:14,040 Speaker 1: very quick to always throw his players under the bus. 512 00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:18,040 Speaker 1: They've never complained, so you don't need to complain for them, 513 00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:20,240 Speaker 1: right Those are some of the comments that I heard 514 00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:22,680 Speaker 1: every every time we talked about the fact that Mike 515 00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:26,120 Speaker 1: Leach had an ownership issue, right like that. He was 516 00:30:26,160 --> 00:30:29,600 Speaker 1: just really quick to blame others, and so I and 517 00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:32,200 Speaker 1: I heard that probably a minimum of a dozen times 518 00:30:32,440 --> 00:30:35,160 Speaker 1: from people like you don't need to be offended on 519 00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:40,240 Speaker 1: behalf of the players. But here is Andre Dillard, number 520 00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:43,320 Speaker 1: two pick in the NFL draft, who was around Mike 521 00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:48,960 Speaker 1: Leach for five seasons, saying Mike Leach quote never put 522 00:30:49,160 --> 00:30:53,920 Speaker 1: any blame on himself, calling them fat and slow, and 523 00:30:54,040 --> 00:30:57,600 Speaker 1: saying he needs new players. He did that several times 524 00:30:57,680 --> 00:31:00,960 Speaker 1: when I was there. It just wasn't goodly your ship unquote. 525 00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:04,960 Speaker 1: So so we and you and I only talked about 526 00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:06,640 Speaker 1: the couple of times that he did it in public. 527 00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:09,920 Speaker 1: He's looking this team in the eye, am telling them 528 00:31:09,960 --> 00:31:15,080 Speaker 1: their junior college women's softball team, which yeah, nothing against 529 00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:19,880 Speaker 1: women's softball, but like juco, come on now and at 530 00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:23,880 Speaker 1: least give him like Alabama U C l A, you 531 00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:27,480 Speaker 1: know what I mean, like a like a championship level team, dude. 532 00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:32,320 Speaker 1: And we have been blasting him because with with the 533 00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:35,719 Speaker 1: last year, with the whole get off of social media, 534 00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:40,200 Speaker 1: they um, but then he's the one randomly tweeting about 535 00:31:40,320 --> 00:31:43,760 Speaker 1: things about California that he's got nothing to do with him, 536 00:31:43,760 --> 00:31:47,880 Speaker 1: about California's homelessness, and you're like, bro, like it's such 537 00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:51,800 Speaker 1: a hypocrite and he's a really good football coach. He is, 538 00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:58,240 Speaker 1: but he but he's like a like players coaches random. 539 00:31:58,600 --> 00:32:01,479 Speaker 1: You don't have to be touchy philly with all your players, however, 540 00:32:02,880 --> 00:32:05,800 Speaker 1: when you when you coach college players as opposed to 541 00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:10,080 Speaker 1: pro players, and prop and pro players even respond differently too, 542 00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:14,800 Speaker 1: because think about it, your job. If you feel like 543 00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:20,360 Speaker 1: the company that you work for cares about you as 544 00:32:20,440 --> 00:32:24,520 Speaker 1: a person or even has your interests at heart at all, 545 00:32:25,120 --> 00:32:28,640 Speaker 1: like it cares about you, you're willing to go to 546 00:32:28,760 --> 00:32:31,240 Speaker 1: more bat for the team and be more loyal to 547 00:32:31,440 --> 00:32:33,680 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, to be more loyal to the company. Same 548 00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:36,640 Speaker 1: thing with your boss. If you feel like they genuinely 549 00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:39,040 Speaker 1: care about you, you might be like f the company, 550 00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:43,720 Speaker 1: but I love my boss. He a good dude. Yeah, yeah, 551 00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:49,880 Speaker 1: there's that, and there's also there's also like there's the 552 00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:52,560 Speaker 1: side of like nagging the people that work for you. 553 00:32:53,440 --> 00:32:55,520 Speaker 1: You know, there's ways to do it, there's levels to it, right, 554 00:32:55,560 --> 00:32:57,840 Speaker 1: you tell them like, hey, nobody expects us to be here, 555 00:32:57,960 --> 00:33:01,560 Speaker 1: nobody expects us to compete with the big dogs. You know, 556 00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:04,160 Speaker 1: And when when you're when you're saying something like that, 557 00:33:04,360 --> 00:33:07,920 Speaker 1: you're acknowledging the reputation that you have, but you're not 558 00:33:08,120 --> 00:33:14,080 Speaker 1: acknowledging the reality that that means that that's destiny, That 559 00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:17,280 Speaker 1: talent is destiny. Right, You're saying, nobody expects us to 560 00:33:17,360 --> 00:33:20,520 Speaker 1: be here, so anything good we do from here on out, 561 00:33:20,640 --> 00:33:23,360 Speaker 1: it's all gravy. Right. And then there's the other way 562 00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:26,800 Speaker 1: of doing it, of of the Mike Leach did of 563 00:33:27,160 --> 00:33:29,720 Speaker 1: ripping a member of the media and saying, like, why 564 00:33:29,800 --> 00:33:32,560 Speaker 1: do you think we always lose to Washington? Look at 565 00:33:32,600 --> 00:33:37,000 Speaker 1: the recruiting rankings, you know where where you where you 566 00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:40,200 Speaker 1: do say that talent is destiny, right where you do 567 00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:42,760 Speaker 1: say that ultimately, my guys are never going to be 568 00:33:42,840 --> 00:33:46,520 Speaker 1: able to overcome because University of Washington just gets better players. 569 00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:50,120 Speaker 1: That has to be so frustrating if you're playing for 570 00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:53,360 Speaker 1: Mike Leach, to for him to constantly reveal how he 571 00:33:53,520 --> 00:33:58,320 Speaker 1: feels about your level of talent, and then the ultimate admission, 572 00:33:58,680 --> 00:34:01,600 Speaker 1: the ultimate admission and that Mike Leach didn't think these 573 00:34:01,640 --> 00:34:05,600 Speaker 1: guys were good enough was to jump to a middling 574 00:34:05,800 --> 00:34:10,320 Speaker 1: SEC program where he believes that the talent is just 575 00:34:10,520 --> 00:34:15,920 Speaker 1: so much um more naturally elevated from from the baseline 576 00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:19,200 Speaker 1: players that he'll be getting that you know, did you 577 00:34:19,280 --> 00:34:25,399 Speaker 1: say middle link Man Until until they had the coach 578 00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:29,879 Speaker 1: from Florida, Mississippi State have been garbage, dude. They're they're 579 00:34:29,920 --> 00:34:34,160 Speaker 1: not a middling SEC program, they are a bottom tier 580 00:34:34,320 --> 00:34:39,040 Speaker 1: at it's probably from SEC people who covered SEC. They'll 581 00:34:39,120 --> 00:34:43,960 Speaker 1: tell you that Mississippi State. The only job potentially worse 582 00:34:44,920 --> 00:34:49,400 Speaker 1: and the in the SEC is at is that Arkansas. 583 00:34:49,600 --> 00:34:54,359 Speaker 1: Maybe because at least Missouri you're kind of away from 584 00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:57,160 Speaker 1: everybody else. You got Kansas, Missouri to got good players 585 00:34:57,200 --> 00:35:01,200 Speaker 1: coming out of there. You got um Vanderbilt. You don't 586 00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:05,840 Speaker 1: really have two high expectations because it's an academic school. 587 00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:09,759 Speaker 1: They don't win. They did win Franklin, James Franklin was there, 588 00:35:09,800 --> 00:35:12,560 Speaker 1: but that's been kind of about it. And now you're 589 00:35:12,640 --> 00:35:16,520 Speaker 1: looking at Mississippi State, they feel like they should be good. 590 00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:19,160 Speaker 1: They're always an old Mrs. Shadow. That can't be that. 591 00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:22,719 Speaker 1: This is he just took a job that is the 592 00:35:22,880 --> 00:35:28,319 Speaker 1: Washington State of the of the SEC. Yes he's got 593 00:35:28,440 --> 00:35:31,520 Speaker 1: better talent, but he's playing it against more talent too, 594 00:35:32,800 --> 00:35:36,040 Speaker 1: I mean. But so that's my question, is he left 595 00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:40,239 Speaker 1: Washington State, where the players were junior college women's softball 596 00:35:40,960 --> 00:35:43,759 Speaker 1: caliber level and that's the reason that they never won 597 00:35:43,800 --> 00:35:46,279 Speaker 1: an Apple Cup. YadA, YadA, YadA. If he gets to 598 00:35:46,360 --> 00:35:50,520 Speaker 1: Mississippi State and Alabama comes calling, and he looks at 599 00:35:50,560 --> 00:35:54,759 Speaker 1: Mississippi States players versus Alabama, and somebody asks him a 600 00:35:54,880 --> 00:35:58,920 Speaker 1: question in a postgame press conference, uh, and he says, well, 601 00:35:58,960 --> 00:36:02,120 Speaker 1: look at my players versus their players. Do you think 602 00:36:02,200 --> 00:36:04,239 Speaker 1: that's gonna go over in the South? The same time, 603 00:36:04,680 --> 00:36:11,560 Speaker 1: kind of let go by the by the Washington media. No, no, nobody, 604 00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:14,200 Speaker 1: because it's been proven that you can win games at 605 00:36:14,200 --> 00:36:18,960 Speaker 1: Mississippi State, so you don't get excuses. Uh. Yeah. So 606 00:36:20,600 --> 00:36:23,520 Speaker 1: so with that said, Mike MIKEA. Leeds started taking the 607 00:36:23,800 --> 00:36:27,759 Speaker 1: responsibility even though he won't, because good leadership always takes 608 00:36:27,800 --> 00:36:34,080 Speaker 1: responsibility when bad things happen. Now Here is the challenge 609 00:36:35,680 --> 00:36:39,840 Speaker 1: for all packed twelve apostles listeners. I will send you 610 00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:44,440 Speaker 1: an Unafraid show t shirt if you can get the 611 00:36:44,520 --> 00:36:53,160 Speaker 1: answer to this correct which assistant there's two answers to this. 612 00:36:53,880 --> 00:37:00,399 Speaker 1: Which assistant current assistant and which past assistant no longer 613 00:37:00,520 --> 00:37:06,000 Speaker 1: coaching have been at the most packed twelve schools. And 614 00:37:06,080 --> 00:37:09,719 Speaker 1: the reason why we bring that up it's because Arizona 615 00:37:10,440 --> 00:37:16,400 Speaker 1: hired Greg Burns Greg Burns has been at a number 616 00:37:17,200 --> 00:37:20,160 Speaker 1: of Pack twelve schools. We're not gonna name name them 617 00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:27,560 Speaker 1: all intentionally, but which assistance The challenge question which assistants 618 00:37:27,560 --> 00:37:30,560 Speaker 1: have been at the most Pack twelve schools current and 619 00:37:30,760 --> 00:37:35,040 Speaker 1: former sending that I'm mad at Unafraid show dot com 620 00:37:35,239 --> 00:37:39,520 Speaker 1: with the list of the schools and the years and 621 00:37:39,719 --> 00:37:42,000 Speaker 1: you got it, buddy, and you got it t shirt 622 00:37:42,080 --> 00:37:45,799 Speaker 1: coming into mail. Uh, you gotta you gotta think once 623 00:37:45,880 --> 00:37:48,800 Speaker 1: the record is established that Dante Williams is he's in 624 00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:51,640 Speaker 1: the middle of chasing it down right now. Oh yeah, 625 00:37:51,760 --> 00:37:56,520 Speaker 1: oh yeah, dude, Dante, weis just hunting it down. He is. 626 00:37:56,760 --> 00:38:01,680 Speaker 1: He is attempting to be the first UH coach to 627 00:38:02,040 --> 00:38:05,239 Speaker 1: to touch his UH to touch his toes, get a 628 00:38:05,360 --> 00:38:08,880 Speaker 1: check from every single Pack twelve schools in the conference. 629 00:38:11,480 --> 00:38:13,640 Speaker 1: We're roasting him. And actually two of the schools that 630 00:38:13,680 --> 00:38:15,440 Speaker 1: he's been at in the last six years weren't even 631 00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:18,719 Speaker 1: Pack twelve schools. They were San Jose State and UH 632 00:38:19,120 --> 00:38:21,680 Speaker 1: and the one year he did in Nebraska. But I 633 00:38:21,760 --> 00:38:23,400 Speaker 1: think he could do it if he if he, if 634 00:38:23,400 --> 00:38:25,279 Speaker 1: he keeps it up, he could, he could. He could 635 00:38:25,280 --> 00:38:27,800 Speaker 1: catch them all treating these Pack twelve schools like Pokemon. 636 00:38:30,320 --> 00:38:34,200 Speaker 1: He's playing pack to well, Bingo is what what he's playing. 637 00:38:34,239 --> 00:38:36,120 Speaker 1: But what do you think about this Greg Burns higher 638 00:38:36,200 --> 00:38:41,000 Speaker 1: by Arizona. I mean, they need somebody with California connections. 639 00:38:41,120 --> 00:38:47,960 Speaker 1: They are woefully disconnected from, you know, from California area recruiting. 640 00:38:48,560 --> 00:38:51,000 Speaker 1: I think that they're hoping that Paul Rhodes as the 641 00:38:51,080 --> 00:38:54,279 Speaker 1: defensive coordinator is going to help with that a little bit. UM. 642 00:38:54,520 --> 00:38:58,680 Speaker 1: You know, Greg Burns has been around incredibly incredibly talented 643 00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:02,560 Speaker 1: uh play years in in his you know, tenure as 644 00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:06,239 Speaker 1: a football coach. UM, you know, including Troy Palamalo. He 645 00:39:06,360 --> 00:39:08,520 Speaker 1: was there for the two national championships in two thousand 646 00:39:08,560 --> 00:39:12,840 Speaker 1: three and two thousand four. UM. And you know, it 647 00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:19,480 Speaker 1: is interesting to me, um that uh that he's sort 648 00:39:19,520 --> 00:39:22,960 Speaker 1: of bounced around recently and hasn't had an opportunity to 649 00:39:23,360 --> 00:39:25,719 Speaker 1: to kind of put down roots. I think he was 650 00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:29,640 Speaker 1: at he was at USC last year. UM, he was 651 00:39:29,680 --> 00:39:31,840 Speaker 1: at Washington State the year before that. He did a 652 00:39:31,880 --> 00:39:36,000 Speaker 1: little tiny stint in the NFL. UM I'm sorry, not 653 00:39:36,160 --> 00:39:39,880 Speaker 1: Washington State, but Oregon State. UM. And in the longest 654 00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:45,600 Speaker 1: he really was anywhere was he did four seasons I 655 00:39:45,760 --> 00:39:49,920 Speaker 1: believe at a s U back at the turn of 656 00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:52,719 Speaker 1: the decade from O eight to eleven and then three 657 00:39:52,800 --> 00:39:56,040 Speaker 1: seasons at Cal and so you know, the longest he's 658 00:39:56,160 --> 00:39:59,360 Speaker 1: really ever been anywhere was when he was in school 659 00:39:59,440 --> 00:40:03,920 Speaker 1: at Washington in state. So this is you know, you 660 00:40:04,040 --> 00:40:06,719 Speaker 1: never really know what somebody is capable of if they're 661 00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:11,880 Speaker 1: always bouncing around, then what you're looking for is immediate improvement, 662 00:40:12,440 --> 00:40:17,799 Speaker 1: right and for immediate results in in in recruiting Kevin, 663 00:40:17,880 --> 00:40:20,600 Speaker 1: someone can't be going into this season thinking that he's 664 00:40:20,800 --> 00:40:23,400 Speaker 1: got five years left at you of A, He's got 665 00:40:23,480 --> 00:40:25,120 Speaker 1: to go in saying that, like, if we don't make 666 00:40:25,120 --> 00:40:29,120 Speaker 1: an impact in the season, there's a pretty good chance 667 00:40:29,239 --> 00:40:31,719 Speaker 1: that that this is going to be his last season there. 668 00:40:32,280 --> 00:40:35,879 Speaker 1: So this is this is a pretty big mean well 669 00:40:36,040 --> 00:40:39,520 Speaker 1: see see but even check this out though. Here's the 670 00:40:39,600 --> 00:40:44,520 Speaker 1: thing that people aren't necessarily realizing either, is the fact 671 00:40:44,640 --> 00:40:50,640 Speaker 1: that this um is that the revenue being down from 672 00:40:51,520 --> 00:40:56,880 Speaker 1: March Madness missing college football, college Baseball, World Series, TV money, 673 00:40:56,960 --> 00:41:00,680 Speaker 1: softball money, all of that stuff, because those are events 674 00:41:00,760 --> 00:41:02,800 Speaker 1: that do make money for the n C Double A 675 00:41:04,480 --> 00:41:07,200 Speaker 1: as well, it's not as much as March March Madness. 676 00:41:07,239 --> 00:41:12,040 Speaker 1: In the college college football obviously, but these are opportunities 677 00:41:12,640 --> 00:41:16,360 Speaker 1: that schools are missing out on money as well, so 678 00:41:17,200 --> 00:41:22,440 Speaker 1: well that then affect Arizona if if someone has another 679 00:41:22,560 --> 00:41:25,759 Speaker 1: bad year, they might schools might be willing to give 680 00:41:25,920 --> 00:41:29,919 Speaker 1: coaches a longer leash because they're like, oh, we can't 681 00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:34,280 Speaker 1: take this buyout hit and then hire another coach, especially 682 00:41:34,320 --> 00:41:38,160 Speaker 1: in the Pact twelve where money is already short compared 683 00:41:38,200 --> 00:41:41,120 Speaker 1: to the other It's a great point because there's a 684 00:41:41,200 --> 00:41:44,719 Speaker 1: real possibility that there's some basketball coaches whose jobs might 685 00:41:44,800 --> 00:41:49,959 Speaker 1: have been saved by everything just coming to a screeching halt. 686 00:41:51,040 --> 00:41:56,839 Speaker 1: You know, I very often wonder where, you know, where 687 00:41:57,040 --> 00:42:01,920 Speaker 1: USC is at on on uh Basically the entire staff 688 00:42:02,000 --> 00:42:05,960 Speaker 1: of of every UH single sport out there, I think 689 00:42:06,120 --> 00:42:08,000 Speaker 1: needs to be kind of on edge, because you know, 690 00:42:08,120 --> 00:42:11,560 Speaker 1: you bring in a new athletic director and you you 691 00:42:11,680 --> 00:42:15,600 Speaker 1: have to prove your worth to that person, you know, 692 00:42:15,880 --> 00:42:19,600 Speaker 1: and and so you know, USC men's basketball has sort 693 00:42:19,640 --> 00:42:23,840 Speaker 1: of been in flux, you know, and it makes you 694 00:42:23,920 --> 00:42:28,120 Speaker 1: wonder if Andy Enfield just finishing his seventh season, you know, 695 00:42:28,239 --> 00:42:30,160 Speaker 1: but not really getting a chance to make a run 696 00:42:30,239 --> 00:42:33,239 Speaker 1: in the Pack twelve tournament or anything like that. Um, 697 00:42:34,040 --> 00:42:38,120 Speaker 1: do you wonder if if this could save his job. 698 00:42:39,000 --> 00:42:40,880 Speaker 1: You know, I I hadn't heard that he was on 699 00:42:40,960 --> 00:42:43,560 Speaker 1: the hot seat or anything like that, but he it 700 00:42:43,680 --> 00:42:47,160 Speaker 1: could affect more than just more than just football in 701 00:42:47,280 --> 00:42:49,400 Speaker 1: that you know, if the finances aren't there to be 702 00:42:49,440 --> 00:42:51,040 Speaker 1: able to make a change, if you're at u c. 703 00:42:51,280 --> 00:42:53,759 Speaker 1: L A. Or if you're at the University of Arizona 704 00:42:53,920 --> 00:42:56,480 Speaker 1: when you when you would probably you know, maybe be 705 00:42:56,560 --> 00:42:59,839 Speaker 1: considering it if the if things continued to go into 706 00:42:59,880 --> 00:43:02,839 Speaker 1: action that they have been headed the last couple of years, 707 00:43:03,360 --> 00:43:06,200 Speaker 1: maybe you have to eat an extra season just because 708 00:43:06,280 --> 00:43:09,479 Speaker 1: of the financial situation that this has put everybody into. 709 00:43:09,600 --> 00:43:11,000 Speaker 1: And those are the kind of problems that you run 710 00:43:11,040 --> 00:43:14,400 Speaker 1: into when the salaries are a massive bubble in in 711 00:43:14,520 --> 00:43:16,440 Speaker 1: the way that they you know, in the way that 712 00:43:16,520 --> 00:43:19,080 Speaker 1: they have been. You still have to meet these financial 713 00:43:19,120 --> 00:43:21,080 Speaker 1: obligations if you're the schools and if you don't have 714 00:43:21,239 --> 00:43:24,640 Speaker 1: that income, you know, it doesn't matter, you know, you 715 00:43:24,719 --> 00:43:29,319 Speaker 1: will have to pay them out some way. Um, And yeah, 716 00:43:29,440 --> 00:43:32,080 Speaker 1: so you might you might be absolutely right about that. 717 00:43:32,200 --> 00:43:36,920 Speaker 1: We might uh stem the tide of of massive coaching 718 00:43:37,040 --> 00:43:41,719 Speaker 1: turnover just through events like we're seeing right now. Yeah, 719 00:43:42,440 --> 00:43:46,600 Speaker 1: it's definitely possible because the money matters. And if the 720 00:43:46,680 --> 00:43:49,400 Speaker 1: money does not, I mean like, there's no way that 721 00:43:49,480 --> 00:43:53,719 Speaker 1: people can can act like it doesn't because it does. 722 00:43:53,880 --> 00:43:56,959 Speaker 1: That's part of the reason why Clay Helton is still 723 00:43:57,400 --> 00:44:02,759 Speaker 1: in business right now at usc UM now with this 724 00:44:02,880 --> 00:44:10,200 Speaker 1: coronavirus so and time being used up taking all of 725 00:44:10,239 --> 00:44:13,520 Speaker 1: this right right well not while I should say, have 726 00:44:13,560 --> 00:44:15,759 Speaker 1: an additional time that's been with your family. Addition to 727 00:44:15,800 --> 00:44:20,080 Speaker 1: all these things, people are turning to entertainment to, you know, 728 00:44:20,480 --> 00:44:24,399 Speaker 1: to have some fun to enjoy themselves. Bill Simmons brought 729 00:44:24,520 --> 00:44:27,880 Speaker 1: up a good question and a good uh idea, because 730 00:44:27,960 --> 00:44:31,920 Speaker 1: we still want to see movies, we still want to 731 00:44:32,560 --> 00:44:35,560 Speaker 1: enjoy the box office content, and really it can be 732 00:44:35,800 --> 00:44:39,319 Speaker 1: keen right now because there's nothing else. So he brought 733 00:44:39,400 --> 00:44:44,239 Speaker 1: up an idea. Uh, Ralph Will explained to him the idea. Yeah, 734 00:44:44,400 --> 00:44:46,680 Speaker 1: So Bill Simmons said that they should just make every 735 00:44:46,800 --> 00:44:50,480 Speaker 1: movie that was going to be available in theaters available 736 00:44:50,560 --> 00:44:53,200 Speaker 1: at home for about for fifty bucks. That you can 737 00:44:53,320 --> 00:44:57,440 Speaker 1: essentially rent the movie um for fifty dollars. And the 738 00:44:57,560 --> 00:45:01,400 Speaker 1: response was pretty eye opening. It was, I mean, it 739 00:45:01,680 --> 00:45:06,600 Speaker 1: was everybody basically saying like that, that's an idiotic idea, 740 00:45:07,040 --> 00:45:10,480 Speaker 1: whoever spends fifty bucks going to a movie, if they 741 00:45:10,560 --> 00:45:13,120 Speaker 1: make it available, then it would just immediately shift to 742 00:45:13,360 --> 00:45:16,120 Speaker 1: like illegal download torrent streams, and they would cost themselves 743 00:45:16,560 --> 00:45:18,560 Speaker 1: a bunch of money anyway. But the but the thing 744 00:45:18,640 --> 00:45:20,800 Speaker 1: that stuck out to me is there seemed to be 745 00:45:20,880 --> 00:45:24,839 Speaker 1: a whole lot of single people and or childless people 746 00:45:25,320 --> 00:45:30,240 Speaker 1: wondering how anybody ever spends fifty dollars at the movie theater. 747 00:45:30,719 --> 00:45:34,279 Speaker 1: And I'm sitting here wondering how it's possible to spend 748 00:45:34,320 --> 00:45:36,960 Speaker 1: less than fifty dollars going to a movie, because I 749 00:45:37,120 --> 00:45:41,200 Speaker 1: have not done that in over ten years. It is 750 00:45:41,320 --> 00:45:43,640 Speaker 1: at gh least fifty bucks to go to a movie. 751 00:45:45,000 --> 00:45:48,920 Speaker 1: If we go to a matinee here, okay with with 752 00:45:49,280 --> 00:45:53,120 Speaker 1: with my family, the cheapest possible movie, it's like a 753 00:45:53,320 --> 00:45:57,880 Speaker 1: seven dollar it's like a seven uh no, actually it's 754 00:45:57,920 --> 00:46:00,040 Speaker 1: an eight dollar ticket. I believe eight dollar. Take it 755 00:46:01,080 --> 00:46:07,040 Speaker 1: for for everybody, eight dollars times six people, even though 756 00:46:07,080 --> 00:46:09,400 Speaker 1: that there are seven there is a baby, so there 757 00:46:09,400 --> 00:46:13,880 Speaker 1: are six people. That's forty eight dollars just in tickets 758 00:46:14,000 --> 00:46:16,920 Speaker 1: for the cheapest movie possible, which is really only in 759 00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:19,359 Speaker 1: week days. So it's got to be a kid out 760 00:46:19,400 --> 00:46:22,360 Speaker 1: of school something. I mean like a day out of 761 00:46:22,440 --> 00:46:26,600 Speaker 1: school something. So that's forty eight bucks already, that is 762 00:46:26,760 --> 00:46:32,680 Speaker 1: before um, because I made some sometimes if I'm not 763 00:46:32,880 --> 00:46:36,160 Speaker 1: all by myself, I'm made concession in my backpack. Bringer 764 00:46:36,880 --> 00:46:39,600 Speaker 1: so I'm bringing my own water, I'm bringing my own 765 00:46:39,680 --> 00:46:43,640 Speaker 1: all of this stuff. So so but i'd say that 766 00:46:45,200 --> 00:46:51,239 Speaker 1: for everybody bringing it, that costs me ten bucks. Right 767 00:46:52,800 --> 00:46:55,760 Speaker 1: at the movie theater, that's gonna be like a forty 768 00:46:55,840 --> 00:47:01,440 Speaker 1: five dollar purchase for popcorn, for two bags of popcorns, 769 00:47:01,480 --> 00:47:04,359 Speaker 1: because I need with with six people if we haven't 770 00:47:04,400 --> 00:47:08,719 Speaker 1: eaten already, I need two bags of popcorn with the refill. 771 00:47:09,120 --> 00:47:11,200 Speaker 1: So so now we have four bags of popcorn to 772 00:47:11,200 --> 00:47:17,239 Speaker 1: split between six people, and and drinks for everybody. Dude, 773 00:47:17,280 --> 00:47:20,640 Speaker 1: this is like a forty five dollar trip. Plus if 774 00:47:20,760 --> 00:47:23,359 Speaker 1: a family member didn't keep the baby, now we gotta 775 00:47:23,360 --> 00:47:26,760 Speaker 1: pay for a babysitter, dude, just to take a family 776 00:47:26,840 --> 00:47:29,000 Speaker 1: to the movies.

This is part 781 00:47:42,840 --> 00:47:44,120 Speaker 1: of the reason why I like going to the movies 782 00:47:44,160 --> 00:47:47,960 Speaker 1: of myself. Bro.

We have not even purchased our movie 803 00:48:52,840 --> 00:48:56,200 Speaker 1: tickets yet. Uh. And then if you throw dinner in there, 804 00:48:56,480 --> 00:48:59,360 Speaker 1: dinner is probably gonna be fifty bucks by itself. Movies 805 00:48:59,440 --> 00:49:02,440 Speaker 1: twenty five if you if you have snacks there, you 806 00:49:02,520 --> 00:49:05,879 Speaker 1: know even more. I'm I'm fifty dollars for a movie 807 00:49:06,600 --> 00:49:08,560 Speaker 1: you were, you were damn right. I would pay fifty 808 00:49:08,600 --> 00:49:11,120 Speaker 1: dollars to be able to watch a movie in the 809 00:49:11,200 --> 00:49:15,759 Speaker 1: comfort of my own living room. You know, then I 810 00:49:15,840 --> 00:49:19,759 Speaker 1: can pause it when I gotta go peete yep yea 811 00:49:20,000 --> 00:49:21,600 Speaker 1: and so and then you could, you know, you could 812 00:49:21,600 --> 00:49:23,439 Speaker 1: turn around, invite over the neighbors or whatever you could, 813 00:49:23,520 --> 00:49:27,000 Speaker 1: you know. But at the same time, uh, that would 814 00:49:27,000 --> 00:49:29,360 Speaker 1: be that that fifty dollars that be going straight to 815 00:49:29,440 --> 00:49:32,960 Speaker 1: the studio, right, So, uh, it would be interesting to 816 00:49:33,040 --> 00:49:34,839 Speaker 1: see even if they tested it out, you know, if 817 00:49:34,840 --> 00:49:38,360 Speaker 1: we're all gonna go and then cutting out the middleman, 818 00:49:39,040 --> 00:49:42,200 Speaker 1: that's actually cutting out the middleman, which actually may make 819 00:49:42,280 --> 00:49:45,640 Speaker 1: them make more money. Yeah with with without having to 820 00:49:45,680 --> 00:49:49,320 Speaker 1: pay the theaters, because because who knows how much the 821 00:49:49,400 --> 00:49:54,600 Speaker 1: theaters are actually paying for the movies. I've heard I've 822 00:49:54,680 --> 00:50:00,319 Speaker 1: heard that the ticket basically goes straight to uh. Straight, 823 00:50:01,320 --> 00:50:04,239 Speaker 1: and that's why your snacks are so expensive, because the 824 00:50:04,400 --> 00:50:08,960 Speaker 1: snacks are actually what keep the movie theaters running. Okay, 825 00:50:09,600 --> 00:50:12,160 Speaker 1: I think movie theaters. I think movie I think all 826 00:50:12,280 --> 00:50:15,560 Speaker 1: movie theaters all across America, because I think the theater 827 00:50:15,680 --> 00:50:18,160 Speaker 1: experience is still I love it. I love going. I 828 00:50:18,400 --> 00:50:20,320 Speaker 1: love I try to go to a movie, you know, 829 00:50:20,440 --> 00:50:23,000 Speaker 1: once every couple of weeks by myself, um, just to 830 00:50:23,080 --> 00:50:25,200 Speaker 1: kind of, you know, get a little break from because 831 00:50:25,239 --> 00:50:28,320 Speaker 1: I'm around my kids all the time, because you know, 832 00:50:28,400 --> 00:50:30,759 Speaker 1: a homeschool a couple of them or whatever, and so um, 833 00:50:30,920 --> 00:50:33,080 Speaker 1: I just that that's a nice little refresher for me. 834 00:50:33,360 --> 00:50:36,320 Speaker 1: I think that movie theaters all across the country should 835 00:50:36,360 --> 00:50:38,680 Speaker 1: be playing like cult classics, Like I would love to 836 00:50:38,719 --> 00:50:42,000 Speaker 1: go to a theater and be able to pay five 837 00:50:42,080 --> 00:50:44,520 Speaker 1: bucks just to see Dumb and Dumber on the big screen, 838 00:50:45,120 --> 00:50:48,080 Speaker 1: you know. Like, I think that they should be playing 839 00:50:48,200 --> 00:50:53,319 Speaker 1: stuff um that that just are kind of cultural favorites. Uh. 840 00:50:53,719 --> 00:50:56,560 Speaker 1: In addition to new releases, I think that, you know, 841 00:50:56,640 --> 00:50:58,719 Speaker 1: and then they should make more new releases available just 842 00:50:58,840 --> 00:51:02,239 Speaker 1: to stream in your in your house for an elevated fee, 843 00:51:02,280 --> 00:51:04,680 Speaker 1: because and I know that that's kind of the direction 844 00:51:04,719 --> 00:51:07,160 Speaker 1: that we're moving already, But I'd hate to see movie 845 00:51:07,200 --> 00:51:11,520 Speaker 1: theaters just shutter and close, um, because of the direction 846 00:51:11,600 --> 00:51:14,440 Speaker 1: that our our society has headed. But I could, I 847 00:51:14,880 --> 00:51:17,400 Speaker 1: still would love the opportunity to go and watch some 848 00:51:17,560 --> 00:51:21,040 Speaker 1: sports movies right like The Air up There and stuff 849 00:51:21,080 --> 00:51:23,120 Speaker 1: like that on the big screen. I think, uh that 850 00:51:23,360 --> 00:51:26,120 Speaker 1: that would be a lot of fun. Um. You know, 851 00:51:26,239 --> 00:51:28,439 Speaker 1: I know that movie theaters already do the thing where 852 00:51:28,480 --> 00:51:30,360 Speaker 1: you can like go to watch the UFC fight with 853 00:51:30,440 --> 00:51:33,879 Speaker 1: people and stuff like that. But even like classic uh 854 00:51:34,320 --> 00:51:40,319 Speaker 1: classic games. If I could go and rewatch uhe NBA 855 00:51:40,440 --> 00:51:43,040 Speaker 1: Finals between the Suns and Bulls in a movie theater, 856 00:51:43,320 --> 00:51:45,799 Speaker 1: hell yeah, like that, that sounds like a great time 857 00:51:45,880 --> 00:51:48,200 Speaker 1: to me. But they got to make a more multi 858 00:51:48,280 --> 00:51:50,040 Speaker 1: use because I think less and less people are gonna 859 00:51:50,040 --> 00:51:53,200 Speaker 1: be going to new releases, especially with you know, it's 860 00:51:53,200 --> 00:51:55,320 Speaker 1: just gonna be ingrained in people's heads not to go 861 00:51:55,400 --> 00:51:59,120 Speaker 1: out in crowds long past when they lift the whole 862 00:51:59,239 --> 00:52:04,719 Speaker 1: quarantine order from the CDC. Oh for sure, for sure 863 00:52:05,640 --> 00:52:09,759 Speaker 1: agree with that. Um. Now on to the last thing 864 00:52:09,880 --> 00:52:14,640 Speaker 1: of the day, the fast food draft.

You are 878 00:53:00,400 --> 00:53:06,399 Speaker 1: very very online, dude. So I'm trying to I'm trying 879 00:53:06,480 --> 00:53:10,640 Speaker 1: this whole new work day, buffer day, free day thing, right, 880 00:53:11,880 --> 00:53:15,000 Speaker 1: and on free days you're not allowed to do anything, 881 00:53:15,200 --> 00:53:18,680 Speaker 1: think about work, write an idea, down anything you it's 882 00:53:18,719 --> 00:53:22,960 Speaker 1: a free day. And so on free days, I'm like, 883 00:53:24,880 --> 00:53:27,080 Speaker 1: my wife is like, George, it's a free day for you. 884 00:53:27,360 --> 00:53:31,800 Speaker 1: Why are you on Twitter? Like I want to know 885 00:53:31,840 --> 00:53:36,239 Speaker 1: what's going on? They want to be left out. Yeah, 886 00:53:36,520 --> 00:53:39,719 Speaker 1: So I'm like, I need to know because tomorrow's a 887 00:53:39,800 --> 00:53:42,040 Speaker 1: buffer day or tomorrow is a work day, and I'm 888 00:53:42,160 --> 00:53:44,960 Speaker 1: gonna be all done. Well, actually, it'll be a buffer 889 00:53:45,040 --> 00:53:47,759 Speaker 1: day before a work day, so at least I can 890 00:53:47,880 --> 00:53:50,560 Speaker 1: catch up on a buffer day. But dude, not getting 891 00:53:50,600 --> 00:53:53,400 Speaker 1: on Twitter on a free day, it's just like murder 892 00:53:53,520 --> 00:53:56,000 Speaker 1: to me. Dude, I'm just like I feel I feel 893 00:53:56,040 --> 00:53:58,719 Speaker 1: like I'm just your out. You're printing tweets out to 894 00:53:58,800 --> 00:54:03,360 Speaker 1: be able to read on your free day. Exactly exactly. 895 00:54:03,960 --> 00:54:06,799 Speaker 1: I forgot where I got it. But okay, so it's 896 00:54:06,800 --> 00:54:09,200 Speaker 1: a sixteen team bracket. I will put it out so 897 00:54:09,360 --> 00:54:13,960 Speaker 1: everybody have, um so we can go throughout the games 898 00:54:14,040 --> 00:54:20,800 Speaker 1: super super super quick. But um, the one seeds are McDonald's, 899 00:54:20,920 --> 00:54:25,600 Speaker 1: five Guys, Wendy's, and Chick fil A. Two seats are 900 00:54:25,680 --> 00:54:30,560 Speaker 1: Burger King, Taco, bell In and Out, and Chipotle. So 901 00:54:30,800 --> 00:54:33,080 Speaker 1: it goes down all the way to six teams that 902 00:54:33,160 --> 00:54:41,520 Speaker 1: are like job Bilee, Penn Station, Roy Rogers, and Weiner Schnitzel. 903 00:54:42,800 --> 00:54:46,279 Speaker 1: So that that's the way it goes. And I don't 904 00:54:46,360 --> 00:54:50,440 Speaker 1: like some of these matchups, but whatever, But this bracket 905 00:54:50,560 --> 00:54:52,400 Speaker 1: is really cool because it's just like the n C 906 00:54:52,760 --> 00:54:55,840 Speaker 1: Double A tournament where you, like me, have no idea 907 00:54:55,880 --> 00:54:59,200 Speaker 1: where you where Joe Bilee is. But I didn't know 908 00:54:59,320 --> 00:55:02,480 Speaker 1: where you you know, I the first time I saw 909 00:55:02,640 --> 00:55:06,080 Speaker 1: I own them, you know, maybe maybe five ten years ago. 910 00:55:06,120 --> 00:55:11,680 Speaker 1: I had to look up where that was so very appropriate. So, uh, Ralph, 911 00:55:11,800 --> 00:55:14,800 Speaker 1: in your first game McDonald's versus Joe, Believe, who do 912 00:55:14,880 --> 00:55:18,320 Speaker 1: you have? Well, I mean it's McDonald's is like the 913 00:55:18,400 --> 00:55:21,640 Speaker 1: Kentucky of this bracket, right like they're they're they're the giant, 914 00:55:21,719 --> 00:55:26,040 Speaker 1: They're always gonna be there. Uh, I don't know, Jollaby, I. 915 00:55:26,200 --> 00:55:29,120 Speaker 1: I honestly like, we don't have that in Arizona. We 916 00:55:29,160 --> 00:55:31,680 Speaker 1: got everything in Arizona, and I don't know what that is. 917 00:55:32,040 --> 00:55:37,040 Speaker 1: And so, uh, I gotta advance McDonald's me too. This 918 00:55:37,280 --> 00:55:40,680 Speaker 1: was an easy six seeds don't lose to one seeds 919 00:55:41,280 --> 00:55:46,759 Speaker 1: except Virginia, and so that didn't happen this year. So 920 00:55:47,120 --> 00:55:49,120 Speaker 1: it ain't happening in this bracket. And you're definitely not 921 00:55:49,239 --> 00:55:54,080 Speaker 1: knocking off McDonald's in the first bracket. Um, so I get, 922 00:55:54,120 --> 00:55:56,000 Speaker 1: I get. Guess we'll just go kind of a bracket 923 00:55:56,080 --> 00:55:57,880 Speaker 1: at a time, all the way down to the final 924 00:55:58,080 --> 00:56:01,040 Speaker 1: eight and then we can go from there. Um wah 925 00:56:01,120 --> 00:56:05,560 Speaker 1: wah versus sheets for the eight versus nine matchup to 926 00:56:05,600 --> 00:56:10,120 Speaker 1: play McDonald's. I don't even know what sheets is. I 927 00:56:10,200 --> 00:56:11,520 Speaker 1: have no it, so I just have to go off 928 00:56:11,600 --> 00:56:15,879 Speaker 1: brand recognition. Uh. And and I gotta go with wah wah, 929 00:56:15,960 --> 00:56:19,880 Speaker 1: which is my only knowledge of wah wah is people 930 00:56:20,080 --> 00:56:24,000 Speaker 1: who live east of me in the United States arguing 931 00:56:24,239 --> 00:56:27,040 Speaker 1: over whether or not that's like a gas station or 932 00:56:27,040 --> 00:56:30,760 Speaker 1: a sandwich shop. I think is the pretty common argument 933 00:56:30,880 --> 00:56:33,680 Speaker 1: that I see. And so those are always entertaining for me, 934 00:56:33,680 --> 00:56:35,480 Speaker 1: even though I don't know what anybody's talking about. So 935 00:56:35,640 --> 00:56:39,279 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with Wawa. Oh. I didn't realize what 936 00:56:39,400 --> 00:56:43,320 Speaker 1: it was until you just said that, dude, gas station 937 00:56:43,400 --> 00:56:46,360 Speaker 1: food is completely out. I was gonna advance Wawa just 938 00:56:46,480 --> 00:56:49,200 Speaker 1: because they were the higher seed at eight. But hell no, 939 00:56:49,480 --> 00:56:54,440 Speaker 1: I don't eat stuff from gas stations. Damn that so um, 940 00:56:55,520 --> 00:56:59,800 Speaker 1: so I got sheets moving on um. And then for 941 00:57:00,000 --> 00:57:03,959 Speaker 1: were the four verses thirteen what a burger versus quiz 942 00:57:04,040 --> 00:57:07,279 Speaker 1: nos I got water Burger easy in a in a 943 00:57:07,400 --> 00:57:12,680 Speaker 1: in a route. Ah. This is my first major upset. Uh. 944 00:57:13,160 --> 00:57:16,480 Speaker 1: First of all, what a burger? Uh? From my childhood, 945 00:57:16,520 --> 00:57:19,680 Speaker 1: water Burger used to donate fifty dollars every time the 946 00:57:19,760 --> 00:57:23,200 Speaker 1: sun's hit a three pointer and so in my head 947 00:57:23,240 --> 00:57:25,480 Speaker 1: as a kid, I'm like, oh, man, water Burger. They're 948 00:57:25,520 --> 00:57:28,920 Speaker 1: like the best human beings on the planet and they 949 00:57:28,960 --> 00:57:32,760 Speaker 1: have the best Twitter. Yeah, and so but I mean, 950 00:57:32,840 --> 00:57:35,080 Speaker 1: this is this is pre any of that. So I 951 00:57:35,200 --> 00:57:36,960 Speaker 1: just built up water Burger in my head for the 952 00:57:37,080 --> 00:57:39,800 Speaker 1: longest time, right, like, Oh, that's like the best food 953 00:57:39,800 --> 00:57:41,439 Speaker 1: in the world, because they give away all this money 954 00:57:41,480 --> 00:57:43,240 Speaker 1: and they sponsor the Suns and I love the Suns. 955 00:57:43,560 --> 00:57:45,200 Speaker 1: And the first time I ate there, I was like, man, 956 00:57:45,240 --> 00:57:47,600 Speaker 1: what the hell, Like this is just a it's just 957 00:57:47,680 --> 00:57:51,560 Speaker 1: a messy burger and so uh and and but quiz Nos. 958 00:57:51,840 --> 00:57:57,120 Speaker 1: Quiz Nos definitely got me through college. When is when 959 00:57:57,240 --> 00:57:59,160 Speaker 1: is the last time that you had quiz knows? If 960 00:57:59,200 --> 00:58:00,960 Speaker 1: you walk by a whizz Noos, are you like, oh 961 00:58:01,040 --> 00:58:04,120 Speaker 1: my god, I gotta go to quizz Nos. Well, first 962 00:58:04,160 --> 00:58:06,880 Speaker 1: of all, I definitely burned myself out on quiz Nos. 963 00:58:06,920 --> 00:58:09,240 Speaker 1: And then everybody started toasting subs and so it wasn't 964 00:58:09,280 --> 00:58:12,080 Speaker 1: that unique. But I burned myself out on Quiznos. And 965 00:58:12,160 --> 00:58:14,479 Speaker 1: I noticed when I stopped eating there, I started watching 966 00:58:14,560 --> 00:58:16,160 Speaker 1: them close and I was like, damn, was I keeping 967 00:58:16,200 --> 00:58:21,320 Speaker 1: the whole place in business by myself? But I will 968 00:58:21,360 --> 00:58:23,680 Speaker 1: say I think water Burgers overrated. I'm not afraid of 969 00:58:23,720 --> 00:58:25,800 Speaker 1: all the people from Texas to jump into my mentions. 970 00:58:25,840 --> 00:58:27,680 Speaker 1: I don't even see in and out on here, so 971 00:58:27,800 --> 00:58:30,640 Speaker 1: we can't have the water Burger. No, it's the two 972 00:58:30,760 --> 00:58:34,720 Speaker 1: seed in the bad prize region. Oh then yeah, I 973 00:58:34,800 --> 00:58:37,040 Speaker 1: didn't have them going that far anyway. But I'm just 974 00:58:37,120 --> 00:58:39,640 Speaker 1: not a big Burger fan and you're You'll notice that 975 00:58:39,680 --> 00:58:42,080 Speaker 1: when we get down to the final four. So I 976 00:58:42,760 --> 00:58:45,280 Speaker 1: gotta go with quiz Nos here in big upset. Oh God, 977 00:58:45,360 --> 00:58:48,120 Speaker 1: they have chicken at water Burger too, man, it's wrong 978 00:58:48,200 --> 00:58:54,720 Speaker 1: with you.

I you know what 988 00:59:35,400 --> 00:59:39,360 Speaker 1: I grew Uh we had Hearties and Carls Jr. Because 989 00:59:39,400 --> 00:59:42,760 Speaker 1: I I used to live and Carl Jr. In the 990 00:59:42,840 --> 00:59:44,720 Speaker 1: same place. They're like saying, well, no, no, no, no, 991 00:59:44,800 --> 00:59:46,760 Speaker 1: no no. So I used to live in Wyoming and 992 00:59:46,880 --> 00:59:49,160 Speaker 1: Arizona at the same time. I go to school in Arizona, 993 00:59:49,240 --> 00:59:51,760 Speaker 1: and then the first day that that summer would start, 994 00:59:51,920 --> 00:59:53,480 Speaker 1: I'd be on a plane to Wyoming. I spent the 995 00:59:53,520 --> 00:59:56,000 Speaker 1: whole summer with my grandparents. And that was age four 996 00:59:56,200 --> 00:59:59,040 Speaker 1: all the way through eighteen. Then when I was nineteen, 997 00:59:59,080 --> 01:00:01,080 Speaker 1: I moved to Wyoming and I was there for three years. 998 01:00:01,520 --> 01:00:03,920 Speaker 1: And so I always had Carl's Jr. And I always 999 01:00:03,960 --> 01:00:07,919 Speaker 1: had Hardies, and they both did like Carl's Jr. Great 1000 01:00:08,000 --> 01:00:13,120 Speaker 1: for burgers, Hardy's great like elite elite chicken sandwich. But 1001 01:00:14,640 --> 01:00:21,360 Speaker 1: but Dairy Queen underrated French fries. Plus they have the blizzard. 1002 01:00:21,560 --> 01:00:23,360 Speaker 1: This is a rough first round matchup. I do not 1003 01:00:23,480 --> 01:00:26,080 Speaker 1: respect that these two have to go head to head 1004 01:00:26,480 --> 01:00:28,800 Speaker 1: in the first round. And but I'm making the blizzard 1005 01:00:28,840 --> 01:00:32,040 Speaker 1: the butter, but the buzzer beater. Uh here, and I'm 1006 01:00:32,120 --> 01:00:34,680 Speaker 1: I'm going with Dairy Queen. Even though I very much 1007 01:00:34,800 --> 01:00:40,120 Speaker 1: like and respect the Carl Jr. Especially pre like Paris Hilton, 1008 01:00:40,200 --> 01:00:44,920 Speaker 1: Jessica Simpson in a bikini, Carl's Jr. Because they but 1009 01:00:44,960 --> 01:00:47,080 Speaker 1: thinking about Carl Jr. Is they make the burgers look 1010 01:00:47,160 --> 01:00:50,600 Speaker 1: so ridiculous on TV, Like they had to like really 1011 01:00:50,720 --> 01:00:52,760 Speaker 1: sex everything up right, so they had to make the 1012 01:00:53,400 --> 01:00:56,240 Speaker 1: burgers They're like making women a piece of meat, and 1013 01:00:56,280 --> 01:00:59,360 Speaker 1: then they had to make the burgers like absurdly gorgeous 1014 01:00:59,440 --> 01:01:02,200 Speaker 1: in these commerce shows and as of right now today 1015 01:01:02,280 --> 01:01:06,040 Speaker 1: in America, there is no bigger difference between what a 1016 01:01:06,120 --> 01:01:09,240 Speaker 1: burger actually looks like in person and what it looks 1017 01:01:09,280 --> 01:01:13,840 Speaker 1: like in the commercial than going to Carl's Jr. Somebody 1018 01:01:13,920 --> 01:01:16,680 Speaker 1: it looks like somebody stepped on the Carl's Junior uh 1019 01:01:16,880 --> 01:01:21,720 Speaker 1: famous star with their chos and socks off. Meanwhile on 1020 01:01:21,800 --> 01:01:25,520 Speaker 1: the commercial like it looks it looks like the greatest 1021 01:01:25,560 --> 01:01:29,080 Speaker 1: thing ever invented. So for that, for that reason alone, 1022 01:01:29,120 --> 01:01:31,000 Speaker 1: that's a weakness for me for carls Jr. So I 1023 01:01:31,040 --> 01:01:34,160 Speaker 1: gotta advanced here. Oh God, I totally agree with that. 1024 01:01:34,320 --> 01:01:38,760 Speaker 1: You are a right um. I got that perhaps same 1025 01:01:38,840 --> 01:01:44,040 Speaker 1: reason I got Dairy Queen defeating Carl Jr. And they 1026 01:01:44,120 --> 01:01:48,320 Speaker 1: got blizzards, bro and they got blizzards. Um the three 1027 01:01:48,480 --> 01:01:53,840 Speaker 1: verses fourteen Arby's, we have the meats versus Taco Cabana, 1028 01:01:55,000 --> 01:02:00,880 Speaker 1: the fourteen seat. I gotta give. I gotta give Arby's 1029 01:02:00,960 --> 01:02:05,400 Speaker 1: some love for the uh for the Arby's melts and 1030 01:02:05,480 --> 01:02:08,880 Speaker 1: the beef and cheddars um that I used to, you know, 1031 01:02:09,080 --> 01:02:16,680 Speaker 1: hunt for spare change to quiz Nos and Arby's. Oh lord, Yeah. 1032 01:02:16,760 --> 01:02:19,080 Speaker 1: There was Arby's within walking distance in my house when 1033 01:02:19,120 --> 01:02:20,360 Speaker 1: I was a kid, and you used to be able 1034 01:02:20,360 --> 01:02:22,280 Speaker 1: to get an Arby's melt for a dollar. And now 1035 01:02:22,800 --> 01:02:25,440 Speaker 1: I feel like everything at Arby's is much more expensive 1036 01:02:25,720 --> 01:02:29,120 Speaker 1: than it used to be. But it was the quickest 1037 01:02:29,200 --> 01:02:30,920 Speaker 1: way to to to be able to get a meal 1038 01:02:31,000 --> 01:02:33,480 Speaker 1: for a buck when I was a kid, And I 1039 01:02:33,680 --> 01:02:37,360 Speaker 1: respect Arby's for that, So have Arby's. Moving on. There 1040 01:02:37,440 --> 01:02:41,440 Speaker 1: was an Arby's right across from my dorm in college. 1041 01:02:42,840 --> 01:02:46,840 Speaker 1: I didn't eat there one time. Let's just I've been 1042 01:02:46,840 --> 01:02:49,040 Speaker 1: to Arby's maybe three times in my entire life, and 1043 01:02:49,160 --> 01:02:53,600 Speaker 1: every time I was like, why did I come here? So? So, 1044 01:02:53,920 --> 01:02:58,920 Speaker 1: so you know who's winning? Taco Cabana. Cabana is winning 1045 01:02:59,040 --> 01:03:02,960 Speaker 1: this Just all of a dude. They this is one 1046 01:03:03,000 --> 01:03:05,720 Speaker 1: of those blowouts where you thought that RBS because they 1047 01:03:05,800 --> 01:03:07,840 Speaker 1: have a big name, that they were gonna win and 1048 01:03:07,960 --> 01:03:11,120 Speaker 1: then this is like a Michigan State loss. It is 1049 01:03:11,200 --> 01:03:13,400 Speaker 1: what it is. In the in the first round, um, 1050 01:03:13,840 --> 01:03:18,560 Speaker 1: next matchup seven versus ten, Panera, Bread versus Jersey.

But uh, this is Panera um in 1056 01:03:41,840 --> 01:03:45,080 Speaker 1: a in in a stunning blowout win just because of 1057 01:03:45,160 --> 01:03:49,000 Speaker 1: the variety and we're in coronavirus season and they got 1058 01:03:49,080 --> 01:03:51,800 Speaker 1: the soups, they got the comfort food desserts, they got 1059 01:03:51,920 --> 01:03:55,320 Speaker 1: the fresh smell of bread when you walk in the door. Um, 1060 01:03:56,000 --> 01:03:57,479 Speaker 1: they they bring it and you can get the soup 1061 01:03:57,600 --> 01:04:00,400 Speaker 1: and salad, the half and half. They just there's too 1062 01:04:00,480 --> 01:04:02,800 Speaker 1: much going on at Panaria. They they they've really got 1063 01:04:02,880 --> 01:04:05,880 Speaker 1: it working. Especially for a tournament like this. Variety is 1064 01:04:05,880 --> 01:04:13,280 Speaker 1: gonna be huge and so blowout wind for Panera. Yeah, yeah, 1065 01:04:13,480 --> 01:04:16,840 Speaker 1: I was gonna go with Jersey Mikes just because I 1066 01:04:16,960 --> 01:04:20,760 Speaker 1: just think this is a tough, tough matchup, but you 1067 01:04:21,080 --> 01:04:24,800 Speaker 1: put me over the edge because Panera has more healthy food, 1068 01:04:25,400 --> 01:04:28,760 Speaker 1: they have different options. Yeah, so I'm going with with 1069 01:04:29,560 --> 01:04:33,560 Speaker 1: Panera Brad here. I like it. I like Panera Brad 1070 01:04:33,680 --> 01:04:37,080 Speaker 1: for the win. Right there. That was a good, good call. 1071 01:04:37,200 --> 01:04:42,680 Speaker 1: That was great rationale. The two verses fifteen matchup Chipotle 1072 01:04:42,920 --> 01:04:45,880 Speaker 1: versus A g W oh No, no, A and A 1073 01:04:46,040 --> 01:04:50,320 Speaker 1: and W not a g w H. Yeah. I hate this. Hey, hey, 1074 01:04:50,440 --> 01:04:52,640 Speaker 1: definitely this is the this is the first round matchup 1075 01:04:52,680 --> 01:04:55,560 Speaker 1: that pisses me off the most. Are you serious? Yeah, 1076 01:04:55,640 --> 01:04:58,880 Speaker 1: A m W, A and W has the best cheese 1077 01:04:59,000 --> 01:05:03,960 Speaker 1: kurds of any fast food restaurant. Um, Culver's garbage. By 1078 01:05:04,000 --> 01:05:07,440 Speaker 1: the way, Uh, A and W has the rubier floats. 1079 01:05:07,640 --> 01:05:09,440 Speaker 1: They have just the A and W routpier, which is 1080 01:05:09,480 --> 01:05:13,520 Speaker 1: good by itself. No, it's not ruper sucks. Ah See. 1081 01:05:13,920 --> 01:05:17,800 Speaker 1: Now you're arguing against the marketplace. Marketplace loves roup heer 1082 01:05:18,440 --> 01:05:24,440 Speaker 1: um and uh. But at the same time, um, Chipotle 1083 01:05:25,280 --> 01:05:26,880 Speaker 1: is they're kind of like in and out where they 1084 01:05:26,920 --> 01:05:30,760 Speaker 1: do like four things, they do them incredibly well. Um, 1085 01:05:31,080 --> 01:05:35,080 Speaker 1: They're an absolute giant right now. I had Chipotle yesterday, 1086 01:05:35,920 --> 01:05:39,360 Speaker 1: um and uh, and the world seems to be fine 1087 01:05:39,400 --> 01:05:42,320 Speaker 1: with less and less an w's all over the place. 1088 01:05:42,400 --> 01:05:44,000 Speaker 1: There used to be a lot more than than there 1089 01:05:44,120 --> 01:05:46,920 Speaker 1: is now. Uh, So I gotta go with Chipotle. But 1090 01:05:47,240 --> 01:05:49,880 Speaker 1: A and W should be higher than a fifteen seed. 1091 01:05:49,920 --> 01:05:53,680 Speaker 1: I think they got they got screwed with this seating. Okay, 1092 01:05:54,000 --> 01:05:57,680 Speaker 1: So what what ultimately out of that is the is 1093 01:05:57,800 --> 01:06:02,080 Speaker 1: the final out of this mac and McDonald wait mc 1094 01:06:02,120 --> 01:06:06,120 Speaker 1: and Dick McDonald region, the final two teams out of 1095 01:06:06,200 --> 01:06:10,440 Speaker 1: this region for you? Um, the final two teams out 1096 01:06:10,520 --> 01:06:13,440 Speaker 1: of this region? I think, uh what McDonald's was the 1097 01:06:13,520 --> 01:06:18,640 Speaker 1: one seed, right, and so I have them, uh moving 1098 01:06:18,800 --> 01:06:26,640 Speaker 1: on to face Panera. Wow, that's very interesting. Um Me. 1099 01:06:27,040 --> 01:06:35,520 Speaker 1: On the on the other hand, I have I have this. 1100 01:06:36,000 --> 01:06:38,680 Speaker 1: This was so tough for me because it was between 1101 01:06:39,040 --> 01:06:43,400 Speaker 1: for me moving on, it was between it became that 1102 01:06:43,520 --> 01:06:49,320 Speaker 1: second round matchup between Panera Bread and Chipotle. I don't 1103 01:06:49,320 --> 01:06:53,880 Speaker 1: really eat Chippole anymore, but because because they've had like 1104 01:06:54,040 --> 01:06:58,680 Speaker 1: food scares yep. So I'm going with I got Panera 1105 01:06:58,800 --> 01:07:03,880 Speaker 1: Bread because there have been multiple Chipotle like Ebola out 1106 01:07:04,360 --> 01:07:06,920 Speaker 1: et Cola outbreaks and all this stuff. And once you 1107 01:07:07,040 --> 01:07:11,000 Speaker 1: start having food issues, you are susceptible to to to 1108 01:07:11,400 --> 01:07:14,800 Speaker 1: to losses. I got what a burger versus Panera Bread 1109 01:07:14,920 --> 01:07:18,280 Speaker 1: in the final for this region? Man, what a burger 1110 01:07:18,320 --> 01:07:23,840 Speaker 1: taking now McDonald's. Oh yeah, yep.

I got Chick fil A in a this 1113 01:07:31,600 --> 01:07:35,400 Speaker 1: is a hundred point victory. Oh yeah, the Chick fil 1114 01:07:35,440 --> 01:07:38,480 Speaker 1: A had its had its walk ons in for the 1115 01:07:38,520 --> 01:07:44,960 Speaker 1: final ten minutes of this. Um and and yeah, yeah, yeah, 1116 01:07:45,000 --> 01:07:47,040 Speaker 1: this is a this is one of those one hundred 1117 01:07:47,720 --> 01:07:52,320 Speaker 1: forty opening round games. Yeah. Mos versus Jimmy John's eight 1118 01:07:52,480 --> 01:07:59,720 Speaker 1: versus nine.

Um. And so I'm I'm I am. 1124 01:08:15,840 --> 01:08:18,960 Speaker 1: That's another restaurant that I'm burned out on. But I 1125 01:08:19,040 --> 01:08:21,960 Speaker 1: will say that that I have had it quite a bit, 1126 01:08:22,479 --> 01:08:25,080 Speaker 1: and I've They've got the Turkey Tom and the number 1127 01:08:25,160 --> 01:08:28,320 Speaker 1: nine are are are two very solid sandwiches, and so 1128 01:08:28,439 --> 01:08:31,880 Speaker 1: they'll get the opening round. Wind No way, Jose, welcome 1129 01:08:31,960 --> 01:08:37,639 Speaker 1: to mos Um wins this because for the main reason 1130 01:08:38,040 --> 01:08:40,400 Speaker 1: Jimmy Johns does not have the reason why I've never 1131 01:08:40,479 --> 01:08:42,960 Speaker 1: eaten a Jimmy Johns because they don't have hot subs. 1132 01:08:43,640 --> 01:08:46,040 Speaker 1: You don't have hot subs. You're not a real sub place. 1133 01:08:46,920 --> 01:08:49,000 Speaker 1: It's also a little weird walking into a Jimmy Johns 1134 01:08:49,040 --> 01:08:53,200 Speaker 1: and they they decorate the restaurant with tubs of mayonnaise. Yeah, 1135 01:08:53,280 --> 01:08:56,360 Speaker 1: that's their decoration. That was that. That has always been 1136 01:08:56,360 --> 01:08:59,240 Speaker 1: the weirdest thing to me, Just like yep. So they 1137 01:08:59,280 --> 01:09:01,760 Speaker 1: get upset in the first round. Next up, you got 1138 01:09:01,840 --> 01:09:07,639 Speaker 1: the four verses thirteen Culver's versus Boston Market. I got 1139 01:09:08,320 --> 01:09:11,280 Speaker 1: this is a beat down right here. This is a 1140 01:09:11,479 --> 01:09:15,920 Speaker 1: beat down. Boston Market beats down Covers because Colver's is 1141 01:09:16,000 --> 01:09:19,840 Speaker 1: the most over one of the most overrated restaurant fast 1142 01:09:19,880 --> 01:09:22,960 Speaker 1: food places that there is. I went to one the 1143 01:09:23,040 --> 01:09:26,480 Speaker 1: first time when we were playing in a tournament in Nebraska, 1144 01:09:27,479 --> 01:09:30,000 Speaker 1: uh in a baseball tournament, and my son had I 1145 01:09:30,120 --> 01:09:32,439 Speaker 1: was hoping it was gonna be like like Long John 1146 01:09:32,560 --> 01:09:37,320 Speaker 1: Silver or something. It was it was so weak, bad food, cheese, 1147 01:09:37,400 --> 01:09:41,960 Speaker 1: curse terror, everything there was below average. So Boston Market 1148 01:09:42,360 --> 01:09:48,200 Speaker 1: just by default wins this one. Yeah, Culver sucks. It's terrible. Um, 1149 01:09:48,960 --> 01:09:51,840 Speaker 1: this is a that.

They don't even belong in here. Uh. 1152 01:09:58,680 --> 01:10:01,000 Speaker 1: Maybe there's some people from the mid West will get upset. 1153 01:10:01,360 --> 01:10:03,439 Speaker 1: But this is the Packed twob Apostles podcast.

Dominoes is like that had like a 1160 01:10:34,960 --> 01:10:37,720 Speaker 1: scholarship penalty there, like usc like that when they came 1161 01:10:37,720 --> 01:10:39,439 Speaker 1: out and made that commercially like, hey, we know that 1162 01:10:39,520 --> 01:10:43,320 Speaker 1: we actually suck now. Um, you know they and they 1163 01:10:43,400 --> 01:10:47,439 Speaker 1: reformatt at everything and and it's still not good food. Um, 1164 01:10:47,920 --> 01:10:50,320 Speaker 1: but I I do respect a restaurant that comes out 1165 01:10:50,360 --> 01:10:52,920 Speaker 1: and says like, hey, we were really bad and we're 1166 01:10:52,960 --> 01:10:56,560 Speaker 1: trying to do better. And and Domino's was that was 1167 01:10:56,680 --> 01:10:59,720 Speaker 1: Friday night for me as a as a as a kid. 1168 01:10:59,800 --> 01:11:00,960 Speaker 1: That was that, you know, we didn't have a lot 1169 01:11:00,960 --> 01:11:02,840 Speaker 1: of money and the one time that we could eat 1170 01:11:02,880 --> 01:11:06,439 Speaker 1: out every week was ordering, uh, ordering Dominoes on a 1171 01:11:06,520 --> 01:11:09,000 Speaker 1: on a Friday night. And so I mean, I always 1172 01:11:09,040 --> 01:11:11,559 Speaker 1: look forward to those Friday nights. And I grew up 1173 01:11:11,600 --> 01:11:14,479 Speaker 1: to realize it's not good pizza at all, but they 1174 01:11:14,520 --> 01:11:19,160 Speaker 1: acknowledged it, and so point to Dominoes. Um, yeah, I 1175 01:11:19,280 --> 01:11:21,280 Speaker 1: agree with you. I agree with you there, and dom 1176 01:11:21,400 --> 01:11:25,320 Speaker 1: Domino's thin crust pizza is really good because I like 1177 01:11:25,439 --> 01:11:28,559 Speaker 1: pizza cut in squares. I'm part of the pizza cut 1178 01:11:28,720 --> 01:11:31,720 Speaker 1: in Squares. I don't know why, but um, I do 1179 01:11:32,000 --> 01:11:36,160 Speaker 1: like that one. And they do have the hand tossed crusts. 1180 01:11:36,439 --> 01:11:39,120 Speaker 1: There are some options there that they have improved. So 1181 01:11:39,280 --> 01:11:43,840 Speaker 1: Domino's comes out with the victory there um number six 1182 01:11:44,000 --> 01:11:47,760 Speaker 1: verses eleven, white Castle slash crystals. I'm giving crystals and 1183 01:11:47,840 --> 01:11:52,400 Speaker 1: white Castle a slash, just like Carls Jr. In Harties 1184 01:11:53,720 --> 01:12:00,320 Speaker 1: versus Little Caesar's Hot and ready number eleven. Um, this 1185 01:12:00,479 --> 01:12:02,760 Speaker 1: is this is a little Caesar's for me.

Oh it's not the same. Yeah, So 1189 01:12:11,400 --> 01:12:13,080 Speaker 1: I I get that there's a lot of people who 1190 01:12:13,400 --> 01:12:17,160 Speaker 1: are big fans of white castle. But um, you gotta 1191 01:12:17,240 --> 01:12:21,400 Speaker 1: understand Little Caesar's is, Um, it's hot and it's ready, 1192 01:12:21,760 --> 01:12:24,040 Speaker 1: so and and that that's Those are two things that 1193 01:12:24,120 --> 01:12:27,960 Speaker 1: I need from my fast food is for for it 1194 01:12:28,080 --> 01:12:31,040 Speaker 1: to be not just warm but hot, and also for 1195 01:12:31,240 --> 01:12:34,479 Speaker 1: it to be ready.

It is the only thing that I would 1209 01:13:31,960 --> 01:13:35,920 Speaker 1: eat from there, because subway. Subway just smells like well, 1210 01:13:35,960 --> 01:13:39,559 Speaker 1: I can't remember. I did not invent this, someone else did, 1211 01:13:39,640 --> 01:13:42,160 Speaker 1: but subway smells like a loaf of bread. Took a dump. 1212 01:13:42,960 --> 01:13:50,160 Speaker 1: Um and uh and yeah, but that's sandwich. That is 1213 01:13:50,200 --> 01:13:55,519 Speaker 1: an elite sandwich.

Um, there's one in Wyoming I used 1216 01:14:00,840 --> 01:14:03,280 Speaker 1: to go to that was that was pretty good.

This is a game that would 1220 01:14:15,200 --> 01:14:21,679 Speaker 1: have been like San Diego State versus Verse versus Loyola 1221 01:14:21,880 --> 01:14:24,800 Speaker 1: Chicago that you don't turn on until you find out 1222 01:14:24,840 --> 01:14:28,880 Speaker 1: that it's ten seconds left and somebody's down by one point. 1223 01:14:29,520 --> 01:14:33,920 Speaker 1: I like, you don't even watch this game because this 1224 01:14:34,240 --> 01:14:39,640 Speaker 1: is like this bracket should be called the Nitrates and 1225 01:14:39,800 --> 01:14:45,080 Speaker 1: Steroids game. Like the nitrates steroids and everything else wrong 1226 01:14:45,160 --> 01:14:46,920 Speaker 1: with this game. I don't even really care who wins 1227 01:14:46,960 --> 01:14:50,720 Speaker 1: this game, but I picked Churches just because when I 1228 01:14:50,880 --> 01:14:53,800 Speaker 1: was younger, it reminds me of my Grandma um Well 1229 01:14:53,880 --> 01:14:57,000 Speaker 1: and Subway. Subway. Also, it's kind of nice to have 1230 01:14:57,200 --> 01:14:59,320 Speaker 1: them in a bracket like this because just like all 1231 01:14:59,400 --> 01:15:03,200 Speaker 1: college bath fketball teams, they they're lying about the height. 1232 01:15:04,000 --> 01:15:06,240 Speaker 1: It's off by about an inch, so the footballs are 1233 01:15:06,240 --> 01:15:09,880 Speaker 1: actually eleven inches. So in the spirit of basketball where 1234 01:15:09,960 --> 01:15:13,120 Speaker 1: everybody's an inch shorter than they're actually listed as, I 1235 01:15:13,160 --> 01:15:17,200 Speaker 1: gotta give Subway some respect.

My kids about a 1239 01:15:31,479 --> 01:15:34,800 Speaker 1: year ago or so, asked me, like, Dad, let's get 1240 01:15:34,840 --> 01:15:36,599 Speaker 1: some pizza.

He still owns part of the company, 1245 01:15:49,200 --> 01:15:52,479 Speaker 1: and granted they've ousted him from the board, Shack is 1246 01:15:52,640 --> 01:15:56,400 Speaker 1: back the face of it.

I don't think you 1252 01:16:13,840 --> 01:16:16,679 Speaker 1: can do it. Wait, hold up, he owned that too. 1253 01:16:18,000 --> 01:16:20,519 Speaker 1: No no, no, no, no.

Okay, 1257 01:16:34,439 --> 01:16:41,559 Speaker 1: all right, only because of Shack Papa Job. I'm gonna 1258 01:16:41,560 --> 01:16:44,439 Speaker 1: go with Cookout. I'm gonna go with Cookout.

I ate a lot of 1261 01:16:52,960 --> 01:16:56,479 Speaker 1: Papa John's when I was but I didn't know if 1262 01:16:56,520 --> 01:16:59,559 Speaker 1: they had handmade milk milkshakes. If you had told meet 1263 01:16:59,600 --> 01:17:02,160 Speaker 1: me that there would have been no question. It's like 1264 01:17:02,800 --> 01:17:06,799 Speaker 1: it's like a fast food mixed with the Denny's. Okay, 1265 01:17:07,160 --> 01:17:12,920 Speaker 1: so number two burger King versus number fifteen Sabarrow. I 1266 01:17:13,000 --> 01:17:16,439 Speaker 1: got a huge upset here. Sabarrow never let you down. 1267 01:17:17,200 --> 01:17:20,320 Speaker 1: They they it's it's hot, it's not always ready, but 1268 01:17:20,439 --> 01:17:23,519 Speaker 1: it is always hot when you get it, and Burger 1269 01:17:23,640 --> 01:17:26,680 Speaker 1: King has fallen so far down the rankings. Dude, I 1270 01:17:26,760 --> 01:17:28,120 Speaker 1: remember when you used to be able to get a 1271 01:17:28,160 --> 01:17:32,479 Speaker 1: whopper thick piece of meat cold vegetables. I mean it 1272 01:17:32,560 --> 01:17:35,080 Speaker 1: made me fall in love with burgers, and now it's 1273 01:17:35,120 --> 01:17:40,599 Speaker 1: just not the same. So sorry, Saborrow wins. Burger King 1274 01:17:40,720 --> 01:17:42,760 Speaker 1: has two of my favorite fast food things that I've 1275 01:17:42,800 --> 01:17:45,640 Speaker 1: ever had. It's also just it's not good. Burger King 1276 01:17:45,680 --> 01:17:48,800 Speaker 1: has never really been good. But the weird shaped chicken 1277 01:17:48,880 --> 01:17:54,639 Speaker 1: sandwich that tasted like uh, it tasted like a chicken sandwich. 1278 01:17:54,680 --> 01:18:00,240 Speaker 1: You get an elementary school um that chicken sandwich loved 1279 01:18:00,280 --> 01:18:03,840 Speaker 1: it it. That weird taste does not go with adulthood. 1280 01:18:04,080 --> 01:18:05,920 Speaker 1: So if you show up trying to get that chicken 1281 01:18:06,000 --> 01:18:09,240 Speaker 1: sandwich now, you'll quickly be reminded why it was probably 1282 01:18:09,280 --> 01:18:10,559 Speaker 1: better when you were a kid than it is now 1283 01:18:10,960 --> 01:18:13,120 Speaker 1: and then for a while they had this big chicken 1284 01:18:13,160 --> 01:18:18,000 Speaker 1: sandwich is like a bacon and cheddar um thing. It was. 1285 01:18:18,120 --> 01:18:21,840 Speaker 1: It was awesome. Uh, and so forgetting me, getting me 1286 01:18:22,000 --> 01:18:25,840 Speaker 1: through uh some of my adolescence. I'll give the nod 1287 01:18:26,479 --> 01:18:31,639 Speaker 1: to Burger King. Here, Samarrow falls victim to being mall 1288 01:18:31,760 --> 01:18:35,720 Speaker 1: food and malls are all dying in. Uh. This is 1289 01:18:35,760 --> 01:18:38,280 Speaker 1: probably the coronavirus thing, is probably the kill shot that 1290 01:18:38,320 --> 01:18:39,960 Speaker 1: will that will take out some of the malls that 1291 01:18:40,000 --> 01:18:45,160 Speaker 1: are barely hanging on. Um. So the kudos to Sabarrow 1292 01:18:45,240 --> 01:18:47,640 Speaker 1: for even making the tournament, but they're about to go 1293 01:18:47,800 --> 01:18:53,160 Speaker 1: on a several year dry run after this. Oh jeez. Okay, 1294 01:18:53,240 --> 01:18:55,880 Speaker 1: So who is your final in this No Sunday's region. 1295 01:18:56,920 --> 01:19:00,760 Speaker 1: Chick fil A and Little Caesar's Little Caesar's.

Get their thin crust. 1298 01:19:06,479 --> 01:19:10,080 Speaker 1: It's like six bucks and no food has ever been 1299 01:19:10,120 --> 01:19:12,640 Speaker 1: more worth six dollars than a Little Caesar's hot and 1300 01:19:12,720 --> 01:19:16,559 Speaker 1: ready thin crust. But yeah, the the and then Chick 1301 01:19:16,600 --> 01:19:20,719 Speaker 1: fil A is just dominant, completely dominant.

Because come on, now, this is the 1427 01:27:08,880 --> 01:27:12,960 Speaker 1: this is this is the Kansas versus North Carolina A 1428 01:27:13,160 --> 01:27:18,560 Speaker 1: and T Tech Junior College. Here. I'm sure that some 1429 01:27:18,680 --> 01:27:21,840 Speaker 1: people eat at Wiener Stinzel and are very serious about 1430 01:27:21,880 --> 01:27:27,120 Speaker 1: it and having a thing before Wendy's is dominant. Dude, 1431 01:27:27,120 --> 01:27:30,040 Speaker 1: I've never in my life been to Wiener Snitchel's and 1432 01:27:30,240 --> 01:27:36,040 Speaker 1: fresh not frozen, square patties are are where the business is. 1433 01:27:36,880 --> 01:27:41,080 Speaker 1: That's an absolute win for me. Love it eight versus 1434 01:27:41,240 --> 01:27:49,240 Speaker 1: nine Sonic versus Checker Sonic is Sonics are really frustrating 1435 01:27:49,280 --> 01:27:53,080 Speaker 1: place because the food is not good. Um. The drinks 1436 01:27:53,160 --> 01:27:59,479 Speaker 1: are usually why people go, and the name implies speed. 1437 01:27:59,720 --> 01:28:02,800 Speaker 1: I know it's a reference to sound, but because of 1438 01:28:02,880 --> 01:28:04,600 Speaker 1: Sonic the hedgehog, I think you show up at a 1439 01:28:04,640 --> 01:28:08,240 Speaker 1: Sonic and you expect it to be fast and uh, you. 1440 01:28:08,439 --> 01:28:10,080 Speaker 1: You can go through a Sonic drive through and be 1441 01:28:10,160 --> 01:28:13,080 Speaker 1: there for half an hour, and that's super annoying. Respect 1442 01:28:13,200 --> 01:28:16,400 Speaker 1: to the half price drinks after eight pm, I do 1443 01:28:16,600 --> 01:28:20,400 Speaker 1: like that. But Checkers and Rallies they put that Frank's 1444 01:28:21,040 --> 01:28:24,439 Speaker 1: hot sauce on their chicken sandwich to make the Buffalo 1445 01:28:24,560 --> 01:28:27,320 Speaker 1: chicken sandwich, and that that alone is one of the 1446 01:28:27,360 --> 01:28:32,760 Speaker 1: best things that anybody out there makes. So so overrated 1447 01:28:32,880 --> 01:28:38,400 Speaker 1: and so nineteen nineties. It's so overrated, so nineties. Well 1448 01:28:38,479 --> 01:28:42,439 Speaker 1: that's my my My headspace is always in the nineteen nineties, 1449 01:28:42,479 --> 01:28:48,479 Speaker 1: so that the test of time and and in terms 1450 01:28:48,560 --> 01:28:51,080 Speaker 1: tests of too much time at the drive through waiting 1451 01:28:51,120 --> 01:28:55,160 Speaker 1: for my food. Yeah, yeah at times. But but Sonic 1452 01:28:55,280 --> 01:28:58,160 Speaker 1: is just better. And they used to have in Memphis 1453 01:28:58,280 --> 01:29:02,439 Speaker 1: that used to have women delivering him on roller skates, 1454 01:29:02,479 --> 01:29:06,360 Speaker 1: so it made it even better. I know we're in 1455 01:29:06,479 --> 01:29:09,040 Speaker 1: trouble for that, but I liked it. Um number four 1456 01:29:09,240 --> 01:29:14,719 Speaker 1: shake Shack versus number thirteen Swinson's. If you had asked 1457 01:29:14,760 --> 01:29:17,920 Speaker 1: me this a year ago, Swinson's would have won this, 1458 01:29:18,040 --> 01:29:20,160 Speaker 1: even though I've never been to Swinson's because I'm an 1459 01:29:20,200 --> 01:29:22,840 Speaker 1: in and out guy, so I felt like shake Shack 1460 01:29:22,960 --> 01:29:28,120 Speaker 1: was completely overrated, but they're burgers are small and expensive. However, 1461 01:29:28,280 --> 01:29:31,439 Speaker 1: shake Shack has completely grown on me, and now that 1462 01:29:31,600 --> 01:29:34,560 Speaker 1: it's here in Cali, i'd rather enjoy shake Shack. I 1463 01:29:34,600 --> 01:29:40,080 Speaker 1: think it's actually quite fantastic. Um.

Those are okay, 1484 01:30:55,640 --> 01:30:59,920 Speaker 1: but I just don't see how Del Taco can compete here. Yeah, 1485 01:31:00,000 --> 01:31:02,639 Speaker 1: I agree, I was. I was trying to. I love 1486 01:31:02,760 --> 01:31:05,519 Speaker 1: Mexican food, was trying to show it love. But but 1487 01:31:05,800 --> 01:31:09,040 Speaker 1: right now it just is not the business.

Again, I dode, I haven't seen 1492 01:31:30,640 --> 01:31:33,280 Speaker 1: one in such a long time. I had to go 1493 01:31:33,439 --> 01:31:35,280 Speaker 1: to there. I think it was like a Buffalo Chicken 1494 01:31:35,880 --> 01:31:40,280 Speaker 1: sub um. But if push came to shove, I'm gonna 1495 01:31:40,320 --> 01:31:44,280 Speaker 1: go get biscuits from KFC and put some honey on them, 1496 01:31:44,560 --> 01:31:49,880 Speaker 1: and I means it's not even real honey.

Again, It's been ten 1503 01:32:14,320 --> 01:32:17,280 Speaker 1: plus years since I've been there, and I think the 1504 01:32:17,360 --> 01:32:18,920 Speaker 1: last time I was there, I just had their fake 1505 01:32:19,000 --> 01:32:21,880 Speaker 1: mashed potatoes and some biscuits.

It's que dobo. Now 1522 01:33:25,280 --> 01:33:28,080 Speaker 1: they don't get a choice. Um they make So. I 1523 01:33:28,080 --> 01:33:32,759 Speaker 1: remember Chipotle tried to introduce caso and it tastes like vomit. 1524 01:33:33,360 --> 01:33:36,400 Speaker 1: It's terrible. It was like or your tasters that thought 1525 01:33:36,479 --> 01:33:40,400 Speaker 1: that this was caso. Dude, how do you ruin melted cheese? 1526 01:33:40,760 --> 01:33:44,680 Speaker 1: How do you right? So in Chipotle, like they had 1527 01:33:44,760 --> 01:33:48,040 Speaker 1: like a flawless, spotless record before then, and they tried 1528 01:33:48,120 --> 01:33:50,759 Speaker 1: to like put q Doba out of business by also 1529 01:33:50,840 --> 01:33:55,479 Speaker 1: having queso, and they screwed it up. Que Doba que 1530 01:33:55,520 --> 01:33:59,120 Speaker 1: Doba made Chipotle take the biggest l of all time 1531 01:33:59,560 --> 01:34:01,519 Speaker 1: by four sing them into the caso game. So I 1532 01:34:01,560 --> 01:34:05,040 Speaker 1: gotta give c Dobo to win here. Yeah, Taco Bill 1533 01:34:05,200 --> 01:34:09,519 Speaker 1: versus El Poyo loco. Uh, this isn't even a contest 1534 01:34:09,600 --> 01:34:12,720 Speaker 1: for me. Like Taco Belly, I do this thing where 1535 01:34:12,760 --> 01:34:15,200 Speaker 1: every time Taco Bell introduces a new menu item, I 1536 01:34:15,320 --> 01:34:17,040 Speaker 1: try it, right, I don't eat a taco bell for 1537 01:34:17,080 --> 01:34:19,559 Speaker 1: any other reason. But when whenever they put a bunch 1538 01:34:19,600 --> 01:34:22,679 Speaker 1: of TV money into some wacky new thing like nacho fries, 1539 01:34:22,960 --> 01:34:24,880 Speaker 1: I'll go that one time and I'll have them and 1540 01:34:24,920 --> 01:34:30,519 Speaker 1: it's fine.

I don't love Elpoyo Loco. But taco bills 1548 01:34:58,160 --> 01:35:00,599 Speaker 1: falling off the map, they're they're they're just gross at 1549 01:35:00,680 --> 01:35:04,479 Speaker 1: times now. Um.

Okay, 1561 01:35:56,080 --> 01:36:00,680 Speaker 1: because shake Shack has milkshakes and are better than the 1562 01:36:00,760 --> 01:36:05,360 Speaker 1: Frosty all right, even though they do have a vanilla Frosty, 1563 01:36:05,439 --> 01:36:08,320 Speaker 1: which which was much needed for a long time. Um 1564 01:36:08,479 --> 01:36:13,479 Speaker 1: So my elite eight are what a burger, Panera bread? 1565 01:36:14,280 --> 01:36:17,800 Speaker 1: What a burger versus Panera Bread? Chick fil A versus 1566 01:36:17,840 --> 01:36:22,200 Speaker 1: White Castle, Portillo's versus in and out Shake Shack versus 1567 01:36:22,280 --> 01:36:25,760 Speaker 1: Q Dobo? Who do you have in your who do you? 1568 01:36:26,360 --> 01:36:30,760 Speaker 1: Who are your alitiate? McDonald's for the fact that like 1569 01:36:31,080 --> 01:36:36,400 Speaker 1: I could, Um I could, I mean honestly, like I 1570 01:36:36,479 --> 01:36:39,200 Speaker 1: could just leave. I could do the like deadbeat dad 1571 01:36:39,280 --> 01:36:40,920 Speaker 1: thing and go out for a pack of cigarettes and 1572 01:36:40,960 --> 01:36:43,599 Speaker 1: just not come home. But if I came home two 1573 01:36:43,680 --> 01:36:45,680 Speaker 1: years later after being out of my kids lives for 1574 01:36:45,760 --> 01:36:51,479 Speaker 1: two years with a bag of McDonald's, I don't know 1575 01:36:51,600 --> 01:36:55,680 Speaker 1: why McDonald's has that effect on kids, But like my 1576 01:36:55,920 --> 01:37:00,479 Speaker 1: kids love that place I could care less, but children 1577 01:37:00,880 --> 01:37:05,160 Speaker 1: freaking love the Golden Arches. So I have them against Panera, 1578 01:37:05,439 --> 01:37:08,599 Speaker 1: which is a pretty strong matchup. And then I've got 1579 01:37:08,720 --> 01:37:12,000 Speaker 1: Chick fil A and Little Caesar's um hot and Ready 1580 01:37:12,120 --> 01:37:18,240 Speaker 1: versus My Pleasure, uh five guys and Popeyes um. And 1581 01:37:18,360 --> 01:37:22,519 Speaker 1: then Wendy's against Elio Loco. Okay, and then who do 1582 01:37:22,600 --> 01:37:26,839 Speaker 1: you have reaching the final four? And then your final matchup? 1583 01:37:27,760 --> 01:37:31,360 Speaker 1: I got Panera knocking out McDonald's just for the for 1584 01:37:31,439 --> 01:37:37,800 Speaker 1: the variety, um, Chick fil A taking down Little Caesar's. Uh. 1585 01:37:38,200 --> 01:37:41,360 Speaker 1: I have Popeyes knocking off five guys because, like I said, 1586 01:37:41,400 --> 01:37:45,760 Speaker 1: Popeyees has got the the star player right now. And 1587 01:37:45,840 --> 01:37:49,519 Speaker 1: then as much as I love Elpoio Loco, UM, I 1588 01:37:49,640 --> 01:37:51,920 Speaker 1: just think Wendy's is too strong a brand and they 1589 01:37:51,960 --> 01:37:54,280 Speaker 1: get through. So I got Paneria against Chick fil A 1590 01:37:54,360 --> 01:37:58,120 Speaker 1: and Popeyes against Wendy's in my final four. See. So 1591 01:37:58,360 --> 01:38:02,679 Speaker 1: I I kind of went to the next matchup because 1592 01:38:02,720 --> 01:38:05,160 Speaker 1: I feel like Wendy should have taken down Shake Shack 1593 01:38:05,280 --> 01:38:09,120 Speaker 1: in mine, but I felt like it was only right 1594 01:38:09,439 --> 01:38:14,280 Speaker 1: to have an East coast West coast uh final well 1595 01:38:14,439 --> 01:38:18,200 Speaker 1: semi semifinal final four where you have in and out 1596 01:38:18,360 --> 01:38:21,200 Speaker 1: versus Shake Shack, because that's gonna create a lot of controversy. 1597 01:38:21,520 --> 01:38:23,759 Speaker 1: So I mean, people are gonna be all in watching 1598 01:38:23,840 --> 01:38:26,880 Speaker 1: that game. And and Portillo's just doesn't have the strength 1599 01:38:26,960 --> 01:38:29,760 Speaker 1: that they had a great run center relevated to the 1600 01:38:29,920 --> 01:38:33,559 Speaker 1: elite eight.
