Indiana 175 00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:15,360 Speaker 1: was one hundred percent. Was the better team? Clearly they were. 176 00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:18,200 Speaker 1: But the one thing that keeps getting every time I 177 00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:21,760 Speaker 1: say I'm okay, like I feel like I'm eighty five percent, 178 00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:24,640 Speaker 1: but like that fifteen percent from Game one, not like 179 00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:27,440 Speaker 1: that's never gonna leave like that loss is and people 180 00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:30,880 Speaker 1: understand that loss is going to live for Effett Simmers 181 00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:33,520 Speaker 1: under again, no one in the history of the NBA 182 00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:36,800 Speaker 1: ever blew a loss like that nine points with fifty 183 00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:39,280 Speaker 1: seconds left to go. They only go back to ninety five. 184 00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:41,119 Speaker 1: But I guarantee you no one did it before, because 185 00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:43,880 Speaker 1: before there was no three. People didn't make threes like 186 00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:46,280 Speaker 1: they No, no, no, nobody ever had done that. I mean, 187 00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:49,000 Speaker 1: that's never going to go away. Just when I thought, well, 188 00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:50,880 Speaker 1: eventually I'll stop show on the Reggie Miller the chokes 189 00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:53,480 Speaker 1: saying no, no, we're just gonna show Halliburton making that shot 190 00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 1: and the choke sign and that's gonna just absolutely bleep 191 00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:59,000 Speaker 1: and live forever. Like that's just like the Reggie Miller 192 00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:01,000 Speaker 1: thing is he makes the show the three in a 193 00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:03,280 Speaker 1: row in like eight and nine seconds, eight points and 194 00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:06,000 Speaker 1: nine seconds and the choke sign. Okay and nope, the 195 00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:08,040 Speaker 1: same thing here. He makes the shot then does the 196 00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:09,920 Speaker 1: choke sign, and that's what I did. Like that is 197 00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:12,400 Speaker 1: never going away. Like that is one of those things 198 00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:14,760 Speaker 1: where it tags you as a fan and you're like, boom, 199 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:16,840 Speaker 1: well I got it. Oh no, you mean I can't 200 00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:18,640 Speaker 1: remove the stinger. Nope, but stays in you. It's like 201 00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:20,240 Speaker 1: when they track you in one of those sci fi 202 00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:22,120 Speaker 1: movies and the trackers say, you can't even cut it 203 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:23,760 Speaker 1: out with a knife. I gotta cut this out. They 204 00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:25,800 Speaker 1: know where we are. That's how they're following us. 205 00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:26,720 Speaker 4: Cut it out. You's a knife. 206 00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:28,600 Speaker 1: No, there's no, you can't cut that out because that 207 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:32,760 Speaker 1: loss never goes away. Now, last year losing when everybody 208 00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:34,880 Speaker 1: got hurt and Denmark hits the miracle three, Okay, you 209 00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:36,400 Speaker 1: know what, I could let that go. I mean obviously, 210 00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:38,920 Speaker 1: it's but this this one that this stays it. This 211 00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:42,040 Speaker 1: is like in my bloodstream. Now it's like eventually it's 212 00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:45,000 Speaker 1: gonna activate because I I've gotten I gotten to my 213 00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:46,439 Speaker 1: blood cells now and I'm gonna It's like I'm a 214 00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:50,480 Speaker 1: radioactive spider like that that never leaves. That fifteen percent 215 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:53,000 Speaker 1: is always gonna be there. I just have to manage 216 00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:54,560 Speaker 1: it now for the rest of my life. 217 00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:57,120 Speaker 3: Well, depending on which message board thread you read, that 218 00:08:57,200 --> 00:09:03,120 Speaker 3: might be real. Anyway, Moving on idea, I can't cut 219 00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:05,400 Speaker 3: it out. But it got to the point where the 220 00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:10,320 Speaker 3: stat that you cited, the layups and fast breaks off 221 00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:16,040 Speaker 3: made baskets overran the what was it, thirty to ten 222 00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:20,200 Speaker 3: or thirty to twelve fast break margin overall because the 223 00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:24,640 Speaker 3: incredulity of how are you falling asleep that poorly after 224 00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:27,640 Speaker 3: a made basket to where you don't have the two 225 00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:29,160 Speaker 3: seconds to start retreating? 226 00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:31,840 Speaker 1: You were show he Tani against the Yankees falling asleep 227 00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:34,120 Speaker 1: after made baskets like you are you are them and hey, 228 00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:35,400 Speaker 1: I'm out man, I'm off. 229 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:36,199 Speaker 6: To hit two home runs. 230 00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:39,079 Speaker 3: I judge game runs and he gave you what you 231 00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:42,680 Speaker 3: came though. Now the mass monthsie and now, so it 232 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:44,720 Speaker 3: helps to not dwell on it. We have anything like 233 00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:45,960 Speaker 3: you know, I'm not just gonna sit home and watch 234 00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:48,600 Speaker 3: cable television, and you know, just be like Ben Stiller 235 00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:51,080 Speaker 3: at the end of Dodgeball, I'm just gonna say eating, Hey, you. 236 00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:52,920 Speaker 4: Want something for the ride home? Here you go my 237 00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:54,640 Speaker 4: milkshake rings on the bunt yeat was. 238 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:55,520 Speaker 6: That you Saturday night? 239 00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:58,120 Speaker 4: Be as far as you know, I want a chicken? 240 00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:01,720 Speaker 4: But I will because now moving on right, like like 241 00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:03,400 Speaker 4: what's next here? And I'm not. 242 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:08,120 Speaker 1: Knee jerk, I'm not prisoner of the moment, but it's 243 00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:10,160 Speaker 1: clear and I've never seen a team in the Eastern 244 00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:14,079 Speaker 1: Conference finals that has had so many flaws exposed, Like 245 00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:16,360 Speaker 1: you get to, okay, we just missed, well, retool for 246 00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:18,839 Speaker 1: next year. Like you could see that the Knicks were 247 00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:21,600 Speaker 1: not near to what the Pacers were, any team with 248 00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:23,079 Speaker 1: any kind of depth, And you get late in the 249 00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:24,880 Speaker 1: playoffs and look at what they did. Right, They're rolling 250 00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:27,000 Speaker 1: guys off the bench, and Matherin has a couple of 251 00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:29,839 Speaker 1: incredible games. Mccoton like everybody's contributing, and the pace was 252 00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:32,080 Speaker 1: just killing you. And the bottom line is this, The 253 00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:35,120 Speaker 1: Knicks defense was awful, right, it was absolutely awful, And 254 00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:37,439 Speaker 1: no matter how you cut it up, you can't have 255 00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:41,000 Speaker 1: Brunson and Towns playing at the same time. Right, that's 256 00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:43,120 Speaker 1: what's killed the Knicks because Towns is a very bad 257 00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:46,400 Speaker 1: defensive player. Brunson's bad too, but Brunson's the franchise, right. 258 00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:49,560 Speaker 1: Brunson's offensively is one of the top five players in 259 00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:52,000 Speaker 1: all of the NBA, right, so he stays. 260 00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:53,040 Speaker 4: Town's the whole thing. 261 00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:55,880 Speaker 1: The experience with Karl Anthony Towns, it was fine, but 262 00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:58,200 Speaker 1: it wasn't quite what was expected. 263 00:10:58,360 --> 00:10:59,800 Speaker 4: And I said this all through. 264 00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:01,880 Speaker 1: This year, is that if they lose this, this is 265 00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:05,320 Speaker 1: gonna be Karl Anthony Towns in one year and done 266 00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:09,319 Speaker 1: with the Knicks, simply because they're gonna need some sort 267 00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:13,679 Speaker 1: of adjustment to get more athletic, to get better defensively, 268 00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:16,200 Speaker 1: to take the pressure off of Jalen Brunson, and he's 269 00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:17,920 Speaker 1: the guy that's gonna bring the most back in turn, 270 00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:20,480 Speaker 1: because Karl Anthony Towns is a really talented player, right, 271 00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:24,160 Speaker 1: He's really but that combination of him and Brunson it's 272 00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:25,840 Speaker 1: just not gonna work, right, So that's why they had 273 00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:28,000 Speaker 1: to put Mitchell Robinson in the starting lineup. So this 274 00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:30,520 Speaker 1: offseason he's gonna be dangled out there and if the 275 00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:33,199 Speaker 1: fit was great, I would say, well, they'll figure. 276 00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:33,480 Speaker 4: Things out and go. 277 00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:36,480 Speaker 1: But you already have anunobian Bridges who are really good 278 00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:39,840 Speaker 1: perimeter defenders, and still the Knicks looked like they were 279 00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:41,840 Speaker 1: running in mud the entire time because you need that 280 00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:44,400 Speaker 1: big guy. You need that big download that can be athletic, 281 00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:47,480 Speaker 1: that can help take the pressure off, and you just can't. 282 00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:49,320 Speaker 1: You simply just can't have both of them in the 283 00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:51,640 Speaker 1: lineup at the same time. Brunch is not going anywhere. 284 00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:54,640 Speaker 1: So it's gonna be Towns, whether it is Yannis, whether 285 00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:57,080 Speaker 1: it's somebody else, whether it's a trade for a more 286 00:11:57,120 --> 00:12:00,520 Speaker 1: athletic big or or a playmaking forward and a and 287 00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:02,480 Speaker 1: a and a lesser role player, because you need other 288 00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:04,760 Speaker 1: guys off the bench. But I'll tell you what if 289 00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:07,120 Speaker 1: I go to Vegas right now but all my chips 290 00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:09,120 Speaker 1: middle and say this is how the Knicks fix it. 291 00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:11,840 Speaker 1: Tim stays here. They are, they weren't the best team. 292 00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:14,199 Speaker 1: They gotta get better. They gotta break up the big 293 00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:16,560 Speaker 1: five that they have. And Town's is gonna bring the 294 00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:19,200 Speaker 1: most in return. He's gonna get dealt in the offseason. 295 00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:20,800 Speaker 1: The that's what the Knicks are gonna bring in, a 296 00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:23,920 Speaker 1: playmaking forward. Someone's gonna be able to be better down low, 297 00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:26,160 Speaker 1: potentially somebody off the bench, which is you know, that's 298 00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:28,520 Speaker 1: something you could do in free agency, but Karl Anthony 299 00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:30,600 Speaker 1: Towns is going to be the big ticket moved to 300 00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:32,000 Speaker 1: bring mostly what they need. 301 00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:35,040 Speaker 3: He's gonna be a really good franchise player for a 302 00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:38,000 Speaker 3: bottom rolling squad because you're gonna get a bunch of 303 00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:42,199 Speaker 3: parts and a would be superstar in return, because all 304 00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:43,800 Speaker 3: of the hey, he's gonna go to Milwaukee. 305 00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:45,680 Speaker 4: If I'm Milwaukee, I'm gonna reset with that. 306 00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:48,640 Speaker 3: Let me give me, give me a guy that's a 307 00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:51,600 Speaker 3: two way threat in every way shape and for him 308 00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:54,400 Speaker 3: and Giannis and yeah, let's bring back a guy that 309 00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:58,520 Speaker 3: is a defensive liability to know and we're old and 310 00:12:58,600 --> 00:12:59,560 Speaker 3: we're gonna bring in a guy. 311 00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:01,000 Speaker 4: No, oh, this does not work. 312 00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:05,080 Speaker 3: So he's gonna end up in the nether regions for 313 00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:07,439 Speaker 3: one of these top up and coming guys that hasn't 314 00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:10,800 Speaker 3: gotten his second deal yet, plus a couple other parts. 315 00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:13,960 Speaker 3: Because depth is the name of the game here. And 316 00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:16,000 Speaker 3: as much as you may like the offensive game and 317 00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:18,679 Speaker 3: his ability at times like that twenty point fourth quarter 318 00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:21,960 Speaker 3: is as good as it gets, that's too sporadic, and 319 00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:25,079 Speaker 3: the inability to close out on the perimeter. Absolutely got 320 00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:27,240 Speaker 3: exposed time and time and time again. 321 00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:29,760 Speaker 1: I'm telling you that's Karl. Anthony Towns is the guy 322 00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:31,680 Speaker 1: that's gonna go and it will happen. 323 00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:32,839 Speaker 4: Ready for a new job. 324 00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:35,680 Speaker 1: Let Express Employment professionals help while Express helps people in 325 00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:38,800 Speaker 1: all industries.

Oh there 423 00:17:57,840 --> 00:18:00,919 Speaker 5: you got Twitter feed for now on YouTube and who 424 00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:01,600 Speaker 5: knows after that? 425 00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:03,520 Speaker 4: Okay, let's go with that now. 426 00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:06,560 Speaker 1: And you you started by saying, hey, bet everything you 427 00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:09,160 Speaker 1: can on a Francisco Lindor lead off Homer tonight. 428 00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:12,040 Speaker 9: Didn't you said, I'm actually on the I'm a little 429 00:18:12,080 --> 00:18:15,600 Speaker 9: Dodger's money line there, and I think that the Mets 430 00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:18,200 Speaker 9: have won like twenty five straight games that Mondora's homewerd 431 00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:19,359 Speaker 9: in or something like that twice. 432 00:18:19,359 --> 00:18:19,679 Speaker 4: Almost. 433 00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:22,280 Speaker 5: Yeah, you could look at that, you know, obviously two 434 00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:25,200 Speaker 5: different ways. One he's way way way, way way overdue 435 00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:27,800 Speaker 5: for that Streek day and or that streak might never end. 436 00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:30,680 Speaker 5: So we'll find out in about three hours, maybe a 437 00:18:30,680 --> 00:18:31,160 Speaker 5: little less. 438 00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:32,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, here's the thing, Like he's hit the home like 439 00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:35,560 Speaker 1: only I think Carl Ferrillo for the Dodgers, like in 440 00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:38,200 Speaker 1: the fifties had a longer streak than this. Twenty six 441 00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:40,720 Speaker 1: games the Mets have won. And now I'm like, oh, 442 00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:42,240 Speaker 1: he's got to hit the leadoff home in the first 443 00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:43,879 Speaker 1: where the Dodgers have nine and innings to get this 444 00:18:43,920 --> 00:18:45,520 Speaker 1: back and win this game. Like why couldn't it be 445 00:18:45,600 --> 00:18:47,000 Speaker 1: like in the eighth inning, you know, to give the 446 00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:48,959 Speaker 1: Mets like a five to three lead or something like that, 447 00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:50,040 Speaker 1: top of the first inning. 448 00:18:50,119 --> 00:18:54,760 Speaker 4: So, okay, we'll see right young, all right, so let's start. 449 00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:57,120 Speaker 1: You know, what what did you make of Deon Sanders 450 00:18:57,119 --> 00:18:59,560 Speaker 1: waiting on your door and bringing up the whole draft 451 00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:00,240 Speaker 1: process again? 452 00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:05,440 Speaker 5: I mean, it's his son, you know, like I, And 453 00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:09,440 Speaker 5: he's a very public figure, and he has his own 454 00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:13,639 Speaker 5: media platforms. He's a major college head coach, and we're getting, 455 00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:17,320 Speaker 5: you know, creeping a little closer into that season, and 456 00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:23,120 Speaker 5: so there's going to be appearances he makes and he's 457 00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:25,760 Speaker 5: going to be asked about it, and I think there's 458 00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:27,720 Speaker 5: a certain part of him that wants to be asked 459 00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:31,360 Speaker 5: about him because he wants to lead to the defense 460 00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:36,720 Speaker 5: of his son. Difficult thing to litigate in the media now, 461 00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:39,159 Speaker 5: because like he is a Cleveland Brown and he's one 462 00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:43,760 Speaker 5: of five quarterbacks on that roster, and this thing's going 463 00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:45,680 Speaker 5: to have to sort of play its way out and 464 00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:51,440 Speaker 5: we'll see, you know, if he's still there week one 465 00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:54,720 Speaker 5: and if he plays there, or where this saga goes. 466 00:19:55,720 --> 00:20:01,960 Speaker 5: If you're of the mindset that this stuff matters or 467 00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:04,679 Speaker 5: is a whatever distraction or whatever you want to call it, 468 00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:07,520 Speaker 5: which I find that to be kind of ridiculous that 469 00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:10,520 Speaker 5: like the other eighty nine guys on that roster in 470 00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:14,120 Speaker 5: the offseason really give a damn what Beyon Sanders says 471 00:20:14,119 --> 00:20:17,320 Speaker 5: about his son, who's the third, fourth, or fifth quarterback 472 00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:19,760 Speaker 5: on that roster, depending on how you sort it out. 473 00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:22,320 Speaker 5: But if you're inclined to believe that stuff matters, then 474 00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:26,040 Speaker 5: you know, maybe it will. It will hasten his devisor 475 00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:30,919 Speaker 5: or give Shador a little less of a ramp, of 476 00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:34,000 Speaker 5: a leeway, of of a you know, ramp than he 477 00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:38,720 Speaker 5: should get. I think it's going to be a football decision. 478 00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:45,679 Speaker 5: And I'm not discounting that kid's ability to make that 479 00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:48,919 Speaker 5: football team and play turoner rather than later, because if 480 00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:51,479 Speaker 5: you look at their schedule, I think Jill Flacco's got 481 00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:53,240 Speaker 5: a world of pain in front of him. 482 00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:57,040 Speaker 3: Jason, what are the lines from Mike Gravel? We want 483 00:20:57,080 --> 00:21:01,240 Speaker 3: guys to make great decisions. Will the return of Stefan 484 00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:05,360 Speaker 3: Diggs proved to be one for the Patriot? 485 00:21:06,760 --> 00:21:13,640 Speaker 5: Yeah? I mean it's kind of an interesting signing. It's 486 00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:17,280 Speaker 5: not like he hasn't been bouncing around, right. He's reached 487 00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:20,680 Speaker 5: that mercenary stage in his career and he's worn out 488 00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:23,960 Speaker 5: as welcome in a couple of places, and it's clearly 489 00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:29,680 Speaker 5: not an ascended player anymore. And I'm assuming they did 490 00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:33,760 Speaker 5: some homework on him before they brought him in, and 491 00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:39,320 Speaker 5: I suspect he'll be given a chance to let this 492 00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:42,280 Speaker 5: play out on a football field through the course of 493 00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:45,879 Speaker 5: the season. I don't know what the heck he was, 494 00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:48,639 Speaker 5: you know, what was going on on that boat. I 495 00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:51,920 Speaker 5: don't know that the Patriots really really want to find out, 496 00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:54,960 Speaker 5: or that the league does either. I just I don't 497 00:21:54,960 --> 00:22:00,159 Speaker 5: know that we're going to ever necessarily find out what 498 00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:06,960 Speaker 5: happened there. Uh, Rable's an established coach and he's got 499 00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:09,399 Speaker 5: a lot of jam there, and frankly, he didn't have 500 00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:12,600 Speaker 5: the jam in Tennessee despite what I thought was some 501 00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:15,840 Speaker 5: pretty special coaching jobs where he had the less talent 502 00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:18,840 Speaker 5: a lot of weeks, but one anyway. But regardless, you know, 503 00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:23,280 Speaker 5: they were shifting around GMS, and this is his call. 504 00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:25,200 Speaker 5: And he does have a bit of a bully pulpit 505 00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:29,000 Speaker 5: from what he did in Tennessee. So if thefon Diggs 506 00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:32,240 Speaker 5: is someone who runs a foul of him with any regularity, 507 00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:34,720 Speaker 5: then I don't think he's going to have to fight 508 00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:37,960 Speaker 5: to get him out of there, even you know, given 509 00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:39,359 Speaker 5: that he hadn't been there that well. 510 00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:42,480 Speaker 1: It's just so odd that, like I know, it's not 511 00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:44,760 Speaker 1: it's been a couple of years now with no Belichick, 512 00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:47,240 Speaker 1: but like you think about where the Patriots are right 513 00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:49,399 Speaker 1: now to where to where they were for most of 514 00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:52,320 Speaker 1: the aughts and the teens, you're like, the stuff that's 515 00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:55,120 Speaker 1: happening with Newela would never have happened. And yet like 516 00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:56,880 Speaker 1: like they're making up for lost time, Like here's all 517 00:22:56,920 --> 00:23:00,239 Speaker 1: these crazy stories and bad drafts and and and and 518 00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:02,960 Speaker 1: drama with the players and the coaches it's like, I 519 00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:05,680 Speaker 1: don't recognize this team just a few years ago they 520 00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:06,959 Speaker 1: were the model franchise. 521 00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:14,800 Speaker 5: Well, it's interesting because yes, that they clearly are trying 522 00:23:14,840 --> 00:23:19,240 Speaker 5: to climb back from the abyss and Bill Belichick, the 523 00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:21,760 Speaker 5: Lord knows, we've talked about that, Like it's hard to 524 00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:24,439 Speaker 5: look at him through the prism of you know, the 525 00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:27,640 Speaker 5: same way we would have a couple of years ago, 526 00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:31,040 Speaker 5: three you know, three or four years ago, and then 527 00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:34,520 Speaker 5: even Tom Brady, like there's betting a fair amount of 528 00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:37,600 Speaker 5: missteps for him just the playing career ended, whether it's 529 00:23:37,600 --> 00:23:40,560 Speaker 5: the crypto stuff or we can go through everything going 530 00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:42,720 Speaker 5: on in the broadcasting we're on and whether he should 531 00:23:42,800 --> 00:23:45,840 Speaker 5: be the number one book yaha, YadA, YadA. Even the 532 00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:49,080 Speaker 5: roast was somewhat controversial, and he was a guy who 533 00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:52,240 Speaker 5: you know, went out of his way to sort of 534 00:23:53,280 --> 00:23:57,200 Speaker 5: court none of that through a long and unprecedented playing career. 535 00:23:57,280 --> 00:24:02,400 Speaker 5: So it's been somewhat inglorious for the to be the 536 00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:05,080 Speaker 5: coach and the franchise since they all departed. 537 00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:10,119 Speaker 3: Fox Sports Radio, Jason Smitchew, Mike Harmon here alongside us 538 00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:12,040 Speaker 3: as he is each and every week, our buddy Jason 539 00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:16,399 Speaker 3: Lock and for Catch him on all your favorite platforms, 540 00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:20,040 Speaker 3: as mister Smith laid out at Jason lock and for 541 00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:23,400 Speaker 3: on X as a central hub and to jump off 542 00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:26,320 Speaker 3: from there one oh five seven the fan in Baltimore 543 00:24:26,359 --> 00:24:29,919 Speaker 3: where I pay a visit every week to Bob Hainey 544 00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:33,880 Speaker 3: and company. So try to create some chaos there each 545 00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:37,000 Speaker 3: and every week. But as we look ahead, you know 546 00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:41,800 Speaker 3: all these different stories circulating. Jason, do you believe in curses? 547 00:24:42,080 --> 00:24:44,920 Speaker 3: And will Saquon bark Are you fading Saquon Barkley this year? 548 00:24:47,160 --> 00:24:49,400 Speaker 5: I do kind of believe in I'm kind of I'm 549 00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:56,280 Speaker 5: pretty superstitious, and so when something keeps happening, you know 550 00:24:57,400 --> 00:25:02,720 Speaker 5: in a certain way, I kind of tend to notice, 551 00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:07,159 Speaker 5: that's a pretty good football team. It's just hard to 552 00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:09,640 Speaker 5: repeat in general. I mean, let's be clear about that. 553 00:25:09,880 --> 00:25:13,000 Speaker 5: Like that, that's I know that we've gotten a little 554 00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:18,760 Speaker 5: bit spoiled their sort of we've had our vision skewed 555 00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:21,840 Speaker 5: by what the Patriots did and then what the Chiefs 556 00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:24,520 Speaker 5: did in rapid succession. But that is so far from 557 00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:28,080 Speaker 5: the norm. And usually weird things happen the second year, 558 00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:30,720 Speaker 5: and you know, you lose a few guys and everybody 559 00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:33,960 Speaker 5: gets a little bit over inflated sense of worth and 560 00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:38,119 Speaker 5: it's just a difficult thing to keep together and do 561 00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:40,280 Speaker 5: two years in a row. So if they fall short, 562 00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:42,040 Speaker 5: I think it'll probably have a lot more to do 563 00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:45,080 Speaker 5: with just some of the inherent pitfalls that come with 564 00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:49,560 Speaker 5: that level of winning and not him being on the 565 00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:55,159 Speaker 5: cover of a video game. But like, uh, you know, 566 00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:57,359 Speaker 5: I don't think it's going to be like Taton Hill's bet, 567 00:25:57,880 --> 00:26:05,520 Speaker 5: you know, literally ended his career. What. I'm sure there's 568 00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:08,800 Speaker 5: some superstitious people on that Eagles front office who you know, 569 00:26:08,920 --> 00:26:10,240 Speaker 5: probably could have done without this. 570 00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:12,800 Speaker 1: Well, I look at it like this, Jay is like, Okay, 571 00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:14,920 Speaker 1: the Madden curse really, what it's become in the last 572 00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:17,359 Speaker 1: years has been kind of an every other year curse. 573 00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:22,000 Speaker 1: Barkley's been really good basically every other year in. 574 00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:22,760 Speaker 4: His NFL career. 575 00:26:22,800 --> 00:26:24,280 Speaker 5: I mean every other year. 576 00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:26,360 Speaker 4: That's all I need. That's all I need. Okay, I'm 577 00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:28,520 Speaker 4: back away, I'm done. I'm backing away. 578 00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:33,040 Speaker 1: I have some quad backing away. 579 00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:35,120 Speaker 5: I don't know. 580 00:26:35,560 --> 00:26:38,040 Speaker 1: Look, what I can see is this with with with 581 00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:40,680 Speaker 1: Saquon Barkley. Obviously, you don't know what the injury situation 582 00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:43,400 Speaker 1: is gonna be. Look, offensive line is massive, They get 583 00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:45,679 Speaker 1: to do the touch push still, but you know teams 584 00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:48,439 Speaker 1: are now gonna spend Okay, we are now loading up 585 00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:50,479 Speaker 1: and and we're gonna load up and we're gonna make 586 00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:53,080 Speaker 1: Jalen hurts, but we're gonna make that passing game beat us. 587 00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:56,120 Speaker 1: So I can see from the perspective of yeah, we're 588 00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:58,360 Speaker 1: loading up for you way more than we did, even 589 00:26:58,359 --> 00:26:59,840 Speaker 1: though as things went on last year. 590 00:26:59,760 --> 00:27:00,560 Speaker 4: Okay it was new. 591 00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:03,280 Speaker 1: Now you've got an entire season off season of tape 592 00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:05,040 Speaker 1: to look at. This is what the Eagles like to do. 593 00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:06,520 Speaker 1: This is how we're going to do it. So I 594 00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:09,119 Speaker 1: can see them slowing him down enough and saying we're 595 00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:11,119 Speaker 1: just gonna make Jalen Hurts beat us. And I can 596 00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:13,600 Speaker 1: see his numbers coming down strictly because of that. 597 00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:17,520 Speaker 5: Well, look, I think some regress in there, Like he 598 00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:21,040 Speaker 5: can have an amazing season and regress from last year. 599 00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:24,480 Speaker 5: You know, there's a lot like Lamar Jackson could do 600 00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:28,119 Speaker 5: the same thing. You could look at certain numbers and 601 00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:31,240 Speaker 5: say they went down, but then other things went up. 602 00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:34,400 Speaker 5: Like to your point about loading the box whatever, could 603 00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:38,160 Speaker 5: you know early down receiving yards for him? Could could 604 00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:40,760 Speaker 5: that be way up? You know, could receiving touchdowns tick 605 00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:45,800 Speaker 5: up a little bit. I think that passing game can 606 00:27:45,840 --> 00:27:50,280 Speaker 5: continue to evolve, There's no doubt about that. And I mean, 607 00:27:50,280 --> 00:27:51,840 Speaker 5: are they going to be able to win as many 608 00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:56,199 Speaker 5: games with Jalen Hurts attempting sixteen to nineteen passes? I 609 00:27:56,240 --> 00:28:02,400 Speaker 5: mean probably not. But to your point about the offensive line, 610 00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:05,360 Speaker 5: I mean that that's very true, and that's a great 611 00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:09,399 Speaker 5: starting point. And they do have you know, legit blide 612 00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:12,880 Speaker 5: receivers and they do get a lot you know, out 613 00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:16,399 Speaker 5: of the tight end position as well, so they might 614 00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:19,920 Speaker 5: have to do it a little bit differently. I also 615 00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:22,480 Speaker 5: think that defense, though, is still really a sender. And 616 00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:25,520 Speaker 5: if they can help turn people over early in games 617 00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:27,640 Speaker 5: and put you to help, you know, help you get 618 00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:30,359 Speaker 5: in positions to play with the lead, then guess what, 619 00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:33,080 Speaker 5: your your your volume in the run game is still 620 00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:33,920 Speaker 5: going to be pretty stout. 621 00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:37,280 Speaker 1: He's on Twitter at Jason Locking for that is at 622 00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:40,200 Speaker 1: Jason lock And for Odyssey one oh five seven, the 623 00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:45,040 Speaker 1: Fan Washington Post, and check out that brand new gambling 624 00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:46,600 Speaker 1: thing he has going. 625 00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:47,240 Speaker 4: On that podcast. 626 00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:49,360 Speaker 1: Check out the link right now on his Twitter page 627 00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:51,880 Speaker 1: at Jason Locking for that is at Jason lock And 628 00:28:51,920 --> 00:28:53,880 Speaker 1: for Remember Dodgers on the money line. 629 00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:57,520 Speaker 5: That was his call to the great dogs, Dogs, Dogs, Dogs. 630 00:28:57,200 --> 00:29:00,560 Speaker 4: Do Let's go take it easy, honey.

It's not gonna be that expensive. 838 00:38:13,840 --> 00:38:15,680 Speaker 4: You can bring him in. He's still an elite scorer. 839 00:38:15,960 --> 00:38:18,799 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, Okay, let me just let me 840 00:38:18,880 --> 00:38:20,879 Speaker 1: just say this.

Brooklyn was a disaster. 862 00:39:07,080 --> 00:39:10,920 Speaker 3: N He'll make an effort defensively that Carolyn Brooklyn was 863 00:39:11,000 --> 00:39:13,640 Speaker 3: a disaster and he had to move on, and then 864 00:39:13,719 --> 00:39:15,440 Speaker 3: Phoenix was a disaster. 865 00:39:15,920 --> 00:39:18,319 Speaker 1: He's not done anything. He has put up numbers. Okay, 866 00:39:18,440 --> 00:39:20,200 Speaker 1: Like I said, I like KD.

Knowing what you 894 00:40:07,080 --> 00:40:09,280 Speaker 3: know now, it could be a little different. 895 00:40:09,400 --> 00:40:11,840 Speaker 4: Just why we get this Jalen Brunson kid out of Villanova. 896 00:40:11,960 --> 00:40:14,799 Speaker 3: But all of that to say with Durant, Yeah, he's 897 00:40:14,800 --> 00:40:17,800 Speaker 3: gonna score, he's gonna play slightly better defense, and depending 898 00:40:17,840 --> 00:40:23,160 Speaker 3: on which height that you see listed for him, maybe 899 00:40:23,200 --> 00:40:25,640 Speaker 3: he doesn't give up a whole lot. Then get to 900 00:40:25,840 --> 00:40:29,480 Speaker 3: cat in that regard, but when you get down to it, 901 00:40:29,480 --> 00:40:31,759 Speaker 3: it's not a one for one switch out. Like what 902 00:40:31,880 --> 00:40:35,280 Speaker 3: else is coming along? What else has to be relinquished 903 00:40:35,560 --> 00:40:39,360 Speaker 3: to make it happen.

We've got the MLB Network Showcase Wednesday evening 941 00:42:16,800 --> 00:42:20,880 Speaker 7: at Dodger Stadium, Mets and Dodgers. It could be could 942 00:42:20,880 --> 00:42:24,279 Speaker 7: be an NLCS previous for the second straight year. But 943 00:42:24,840 --> 00:42:27,200 Speaker 7: I'm still waiting to see. As we talked about the 944 00:42:27,239 --> 00:42:30,960 Speaker 7: potential storylines today, still waiting to see Juan Soto get 945 00:42:31,120 --> 00:42:34,520 Speaker 7: really going for the Mets. That's I know they're leading tonight, 946 00:42:34,600 --> 00:42:37,919 Speaker 7: but still waiting to see Soto lock in here during 947 00:42:37,920 --> 00:42:39,960 Speaker 7: his debut season in Flushing queen, it's. 948 00:42:39,800 --> 00:42:42,320 Speaker 1: Gonna be November, and I'm gonna be saying, just wait 949 00:42:42,440 --> 00:42:44,960 Speaker 1: any day now, any. 950 00:42:44,400 --> 00:42:46,400 Speaker 2: Any day, look for soda. 951 00:42:46,440 --> 00:42:48,560 Speaker 1: Look, I honestly think this is what it is, John 952 00:42:48,560 --> 00:42:51,919 Speaker 1: Paul is that clearly, he cares. Clearly, he's having fun. 953 00:42:51,960 --> 00:42:54,200 Speaker 1: He likes being there. You know, you can't fake that. 954 00:42:54,239 --> 00:42:56,200 Speaker 1: Those those reports that came out a month ago. Look, 955 00:42:56,239 --> 00:42:58,840 Speaker 1: it's weird, the Yankees obsession with the Mets and Won Soto, 956 00:42:58,880 --> 00:43:01,319 Speaker 1: but hey, it's like be obsessed with your ex. But 957 00:43:01,400 --> 00:43:03,960 Speaker 1: I think he just has to. He's such a he's 958 00:43:04,000 --> 00:43:06,600 Speaker 1: such a player. He hears everything that's said around him. 959 00:43:07,120 --> 00:43:09,839 Speaker 1: Fan reaction can get to him at times where he 960 00:43:09,880 --> 00:43:13,000 Speaker 1: just has to understand that, Okay, I'm not, Oh my goodness, 961 00:43:13,040 --> 00:43:15,279 Speaker 1: everybody loves Wan Soto because we could all get him 962 00:43:15,280 --> 00:43:17,680 Speaker 1: when he becomes a free agent. Now it's okay, twenty 963 00:43:17,760 --> 00:43:20,359 Speaker 1: nine teams hate him and one team's fan base loves him. 964 00:43:20,360 --> 00:43:22,200 Speaker 1: And that's he got to get used to that new 965 00:43:22,280 --> 00:43:25,880 Speaker 1: norm that with that money comes all sorts of expectations 966 00:43:25,880 --> 00:43:27,759 Speaker 1: and people who want to see you fail. And I 967 00:43:27,800 --> 00:43:29,920 Speaker 1: think once he comes around to that, I think then 968 00:43:29,960 --> 00:43:31,440 Speaker 1: he's gonna be fine. He's too good a player to 969 00:43:31,480 --> 00:43:33,560 Speaker 1: have that not happened. But hey, this is not how 970 00:43:33,600 --> 00:43:35,200 Speaker 1: I was treated, This is not how my first six 971 00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:37,720 Speaker 1: years major league baseball went. And I got to understand 972 00:43:37,719 --> 00:43:39,879 Speaker 1: now that people don't like me, and that's just kind 973 00:43:39,920 --> 00:43:40,680 Speaker 1: of how it's going to go. 974 00:43:41,520 --> 00:43:44,719 Speaker 7: It's a shock to the system. And you look over 975 00:43:44,800 --> 00:43:50,440 Speaker 7: the course of baseball history, many of the biggest deals 976 00:43:50,480 --> 00:43:52,640 Speaker 7: that have been signed, there has been a little bit 977 00:43:52,680 --> 00:43:55,000 Speaker 7: of a blip. Now, it doesn't always have to be 978 00:43:55,040 --> 00:43:58,040 Speaker 7: a long one, maybe not even as long as what 979 00:43:58,160 --> 00:44:01,000 Speaker 7: Soto's going through, but in some case it takes a 980 00:44:01,160 --> 00:44:05,600 Speaker 7: long time. I think back to Albert Pooles's first deal 981 00:44:05,880 --> 00:44:08,239 Speaker 7: with the Angels, and certainly he was older then than 982 00:44:08,280 --> 00:44:12,560 Speaker 7: Soto is now. But there often is some element of 983 00:44:13,000 --> 00:44:16,920 Speaker 7: turbulence when you have a large contract, especially one that 984 00:44:17,080 --> 00:44:21,320 Speaker 7: is of this magnitude. I still believe, over the fullness 985 00:44:21,360 --> 00:44:24,960 Speaker 7: of time, this will end up being the right player 986 00:44:25,000 --> 00:44:25,759 Speaker 7: for the right team. 987 00:44:25,840 --> 00:44:25,960 Speaker 5: Now. 988 00:44:26,160 --> 00:44:28,560 Speaker 7: Now, notice I didn't say that the Mets are going 989 00:44:28,600 --> 00:44:30,640 Speaker 7: to get every last dollar out of the deal, because 990 00:44:30,680 --> 00:44:34,000 Speaker 7: I just don't think it's realistic. He clearly adds to 991 00:44:34,080 --> 00:44:37,640 Speaker 7: the team even right now, even when he's not at 992 00:44:37,719 --> 00:44:42,280 Speaker 7: his peak, He's still one of the top ten right fielders, 993 00:44:42,280 --> 00:44:44,400 Speaker 7: the least in Major League Baseball. You would ideally like 994 00:44:44,600 --> 00:44:46,480 Speaker 7: the bart of events higher than that for what you're 995 00:44:46,520 --> 00:44:49,360 Speaker 7: paying him. But he's still an above average player. He 996 00:44:49,440 --> 00:44:52,879 Speaker 7: is still a productive player because he knows the strike 997 00:44:53,000 --> 00:44:55,600 Speaker 7: zone so well. But I do think that you're exactly right. 998 00:44:55,960 --> 00:45:03,760 Speaker 7: It is a major shift in how you're perceiving the sport, yourself, fans, 999 00:45:04,120 --> 00:45:07,200 Speaker 7: every city you go to that you are on the 1000 00:45:07,239 --> 00:45:10,640 Speaker 7: road a villain and at home you've got to produce. 1001 00:45:10,680 --> 00:45:14,400 Speaker 7: There's just not that same level of freedom and flexibility 1002 00:45:14,400 --> 00:45:16,719 Speaker 7: that he would have found just a year ago with 1003 00:45:16,760 --> 00:45:17,280 Speaker 7: the Yankees. 1004 00:45:17,680 --> 00:45:20,880 Speaker 3: So as we get June underway, JP coming off a 1005 00:45:20,960 --> 00:45:24,520 Speaker 3: huge series two out of three for the Dodgers against 1006 00:45:24,520 --> 00:45:27,319 Speaker 3: the Yankees, what do we make of it other than boy, 1007 00:45:27,360 --> 00:45:28,040 Speaker 3: I really hope. 1008 00:45:27,880 --> 00:45:30,040 Speaker 4: There's some other pictures available come October. 1009 00:45:30,360 --> 00:45:34,319 Speaker 7: Well that's it for the Dodgers. And you're exactly right. 1010 00:45:34,719 --> 00:45:37,799 Speaker 7: I was talking this morning on MLB Network that a 1011 00:45:37,840 --> 00:45:40,920 Speaker 7: team like the Rangers with Tyler Mallley and Patrick Corbyn 1012 00:45:40,960 --> 00:45:44,080 Speaker 7: could be a good fit potential trade partner for the Dodgers. 1013 00:45:44,800 --> 00:45:47,760 Speaker 7: It doesn't sound like things are progressing for Glass now. 1014 00:45:48,280 --> 00:45:50,239 Speaker 7: Gonsolin's going to be on the mound for our game 1015 00:45:50,320 --> 00:45:53,080 Speaker 7: on Wednesday, and he's been a little bit up and down. 1016 00:45:54,160 --> 00:45:56,680 Speaker 7: I just don't know if you were to try to 1017 00:45:56,719 --> 00:46:02,279 Speaker 7: figure out a first round series for the Dodgers with 1018 00:46:02,680 --> 00:46:06,040 Speaker 7: only with existing healthy pitchers, and that's really all you 1019 00:46:06,040 --> 00:46:09,560 Speaker 7: can definitely count on are the guys that are healthy 1020 00:46:09,640 --> 00:46:13,000 Speaker 7: right now, you probably wouldn't love your chances in a 1021 00:46:13,040 --> 00:46:16,240 Speaker 7: division series with that particular group of guys just because 1022 00:46:16,280 --> 00:46:20,120 Speaker 7: there's not enough reliability among that group, and they have 1023 00:46:20,200 --> 00:46:24,200 Speaker 7: to probably focus on bringing in next year's version or 1024 00:46:24,640 --> 00:46:26,680 Speaker 7: this year's version of what they had in Jack Flerty 1025 00:46:26,719 --> 00:46:30,080 Speaker 7: last year, because the existing cast is probably not going 1026 00:46:30,160 --> 00:46:32,040 Speaker 7: to be good enough, to be honest with you. But 1027 00:46:32,440 --> 00:46:35,080 Speaker 7: unless they get back some healthy arms, and unless they 1028 00:46:35,120 --> 00:46:38,840 Speaker 7: bring in somebody from the outside, I'm not seeing enough 1029 00:46:39,200 --> 00:46:43,600 Speaker 7: rotation depth to carry them through three rounds or potentially 1030 00:46:43,640 --> 00:46:47,880 Speaker 7: four rounds of the postseason. Good rotation not a great one. 1031 00:46:48,000 --> 00:46:51,640 Speaker 7: And the National League right now is a very competitive league, 1032 00:46:51,760 --> 00:46:55,239 Speaker 7: with teams like the Mets, like the Cubs, even like 1033 00:46:55,280 --> 00:46:57,400 Speaker 7: the Giants of the Podres that might be one or 1034 00:46:57,440 --> 00:47:00,800 Speaker 7: two players away from being a big time threat. Along 1035 00:47:00,840 --> 00:47:03,600 Speaker 7: with the Philadelphia a Phillies, who I believe are still 1036 00:47:03,680 --> 00:47:05,560 Speaker 7: one of the very best teams in all Major League Baseball. 1037 00:47:06,719 --> 00:47:07,239 Speaker 6: Now, hang on a. 1038 00:47:07,200 --> 00:47:11,240 Speaker 1: Second, John Paul Kershaw is back Coofax Drysdale. 1039 00:47:12,880 --> 00:47:13,799 Speaker 4: The Dodgers tell it. 1040 00:47:13,840 --> 00:47:15,680 Speaker 1: And those guys haven't had a lot of innings, you know, 1041 00:47:16,200 --> 00:47:17,960 Speaker 1: you know, Kofax looks like he can still sling it 1042 00:47:17,960 --> 00:47:18,399 Speaker 1: a little bit. 1043 00:47:19,000 --> 00:47:22,279 Speaker 7: They're fresh, They're fresh. No, you're right, and listen, I 1044 00:47:22,320 --> 00:47:28,319 Speaker 7: think Kershaw, there's probably a fascinating question right that you 1045 00:47:28,360 --> 00:47:32,160 Speaker 7: bring up the name Kershaw. Do the Dodgers feel like 1046 00:47:32,400 --> 00:47:35,600 Speaker 7: right now that he is going to start a playoff 1047 00:47:35,640 --> 00:47:38,600 Speaker 7: game for them? Now, there's no way to know that 1048 00:47:38,719 --> 00:47:40,920 Speaker 7: the answer to that question, there's no way to project 1049 00:47:40,960 --> 00:47:44,040 Speaker 7: to the head other than to say the way that 1050 00:47:44,080 --> 00:47:48,480 Speaker 7: they proceeded when the season began certainly suggested that Kershaw 1051 00:47:49,880 --> 00:47:52,080 Speaker 7: starting a game in the postseason would be more of 1052 00:47:52,080 --> 00:47:55,040 Speaker 7: a bonus and an expectation. Because they had glassed out, 1053 00:47:55,040 --> 00:47:58,600 Speaker 7: they had Snell, they had Sasaki, they had Yamamoto, there 1054 00:47:58,640 --> 00:48:00,560 Speaker 7: were the X and by the way, there's someone by 1055 00:48:00,560 --> 00:48:02,759 Speaker 7: the name of Otani who they expect, well, at some 1056 00:48:02,840 --> 00:48:04,960 Speaker 7: point in time be starting games with them in the 1057 00:48:05,000 --> 00:48:09,839 Speaker 7: second half so they have, in my estimation, planned as 1058 00:48:09,920 --> 00:48:12,759 Speaker 7: if Kershaw is not going to start games in the postseason. 1059 00:48:12,880 --> 00:48:15,200 Speaker 7: If he pitches well enough to deserve it, that's fine, 1060 00:48:15,560 --> 00:48:18,080 Speaker 7: But that does not seem to be what they have 1061 00:48:18,320 --> 00:48:20,160 Speaker 7: planned on all along the season. 1062 00:48:20,640 --> 00:48:20,920 Speaker 4: JP. 1063 00:48:21,080 --> 00:48:25,239 Speaker 3: As we enter again, it's only June second, but we're 1064 00:48:25,280 --> 00:48:28,600 Speaker 3: already having a flurry of call ups across the league. 1065 00:48:28,600 --> 00:48:31,520 Speaker 3: Cole Young great video of him getting called up by Seattle. 1066 00:48:32,160 --> 00:48:36,479 Speaker 3: Caglione getting called up by the Royals, mayor already called 1067 00:48:36,560 --> 00:48:38,200 Speaker 3: up a little bit earlier. 1068 00:48:37,880 --> 00:48:39,799 Speaker 4: Than we usually see these hot prospects. 1069 00:48:40,880 --> 00:48:42,800 Speaker 7: We are, and I think part of it with the Royals. 1070 00:48:42,840 --> 00:48:46,279 Speaker 7: Let's take Jack Kaglano And by the way, let's hope 1071 00:48:46,280 --> 00:48:48,279 Speaker 7: that I have a chance to interview the Pope later 1072 00:48:48,360 --> 00:48:51,000 Speaker 7: on this month, and if I do, I'm gonna definitely 1073 00:48:51,000 --> 00:48:53,480 Speaker 7: ask him if we should bring back to the States 1074 00:48:53,520 --> 00:48:58,040 Speaker 7: the idea that it should be Lean and not Cagliano. 1075 00:48:59,040 --> 00:49:02,000 Speaker 7: It's a beautiful name, no matter what. A big fan 1076 00:49:02,040 --> 00:49:04,239 Speaker 7: of Jack and everything he brings to the game. But 1077 00:49:05,400 --> 00:49:08,239 Speaker 7: doesn't it sound a little better gleanon? 1078 00:49:08,600 --> 00:49:11,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, the extra you know, and you have to do 1079 00:49:12,480 --> 00:49:13,839 Speaker 4: when you say it, Yeah. 1080 00:49:14,360 --> 00:49:16,880 Speaker 7: Do you realize, as I was saying the name. I 1081 00:49:16,960 --> 00:49:19,680 Speaker 7: was actually moving. I was gesturing with my hand. Hey, 1082 00:49:19,719 --> 00:49:21,360 Speaker 7: do it at home right now, if you're not driving 1083 00:49:21,400 --> 00:49:28,160 Speaker 7: the car, kleanon Goon. That's that's the man's name. So anyways, 1084 00:49:28,640 --> 00:49:29,120 Speaker 7: you can. 1085 00:49:28,920 --> 00:49:30,960 Speaker 1: Make it happen that way. Just start saying it that way. 1086 00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:32,440 Speaker 1: No matter what, you can make it happen. 1087 00:49:32,880 --> 00:49:36,600 Speaker 7: Yeah, Jack Glee, I mean it just it just sounds 1088 00:49:36,640 --> 00:49:41,040 Speaker 7: so good. Anyhow, he has done an admirable job of 1089 00:49:41,200 --> 00:49:44,000 Speaker 7: learning right field in the minor league to where the Royals, 1090 00:49:44,040 --> 00:49:48,560 Speaker 7: after scoring one run in their last two games against 1091 00:49:48,560 --> 00:49:51,000 Speaker 7: the Tigers, realized they had to make a big time 1092 00:49:51,080 --> 00:49:54,399 Speaker 7: upgrade of their lineup. I think in the case of Galliana, 1093 00:49:54,560 --> 00:49:57,640 Speaker 7: he will certainly do that. For those who haven't seen him, 1094 00:49:57,880 --> 00:50:00,439 Speaker 7: big time power he was. He was a two player 1095 00:50:00,480 --> 00:50:03,720 Speaker 7: at Florida, almost Otani like at the college baseball level, 1096 00:50:04,000 --> 00:50:07,360 Speaker 7: big time tools, but his calling card is power. The 1097 00:50:07,440 --> 00:50:10,239 Speaker 7: Royals need it, and do not be surprised if he 1098 00:50:10,320 --> 00:50:12,920 Speaker 7: ends up leading them to the postseason. And similarly to 1099 00:50:12,960 --> 00:50:17,200 Speaker 7: your point, Cole Young with Seattle Meyer with the Red Sox, 1100 00:50:17,560 --> 00:50:20,320 Speaker 7: I think there's a lot of teams that are close 1101 00:50:21,239 --> 00:50:25,840 Speaker 7: to being, if not World Series contenders at least playoff contenders, 1102 00:50:25,960 --> 00:50:29,520 Speaker 7: and they realize that rather than spending a prospect to 1103 00:50:29,520 --> 00:50:31,879 Speaker 7: bring a veteran player, you might as well just use 1104 00:50:31,920 --> 00:50:34,120 Speaker 7: the prospect, bring the prospect up. And having played for 1105 00:50:34,160 --> 00:50:37,480 Speaker 7: you the Red Sox in particular, they are just not 1106 00:50:37,640 --> 00:50:40,560 Speaker 7: playing well right now. And I think of the different 1107 00:50:40,600 --> 00:50:44,000 Speaker 7: situations where we're referencing the Red Sox, Meyer seem to 1108 00:50:44,000 --> 00:50:47,120 Speaker 7: be a bit more more dire than the others because 1109 00:50:47,320 --> 00:50:49,320 Speaker 7: they're just not playing good baseball right now. There's a 1110 00:50:49,360 --> 00:50:52,240 Speaker 7: lot of pressure on them to call up Roman Anthony 1111 00:50:52,280 --> 00:50:55,719 Speaker 7: as well. I think in general, the Boston has just 1112 00:50:55,800 --> 00:50:58,320 Speaker 7: not shown that they're going to be able to compete 1113 00:50:58,360 --> 00:51:01,960 Speaker 7: at the top of what is even a fairly by 1114 00:51:02,000 --> 00:51:05,880 Speaker 7: the al E standards mediocre year in this division, and 1115 00:51:06,160 --> 00:51:08,280 Speaker 7: the Red Sox are falling short of that standard. 1116 00:51:08,560 --> 00:51:10,480 Speaker 1: Now, I'm glad you brought this up, John Paul Morosi, 1117 00:51:10,440 --> 00:51:12,839 Speaker 1: where that's your MLB network. You know, last week you 1118 00:51:12,880 --> 00:51:17,360 Speaker 1: told us you had received correspondence from the Vatican about 1119 00:51:17,360 --> 00:51:20,560 Speaker 1: getting your interview with Pope Leo, and you said, okay, 1120 00:51:20,600 --> 00:51:23,280 Speaker 1: So now that they have passed it on to next steps, 1121 00:51:23,320 --> 00:51:25,640 Speaker 1: and now here's a week has gone by, and now 1122 00:51:25,680 --> 00:51:27,319 Speaker 1: what are the next steps. Where are you at right now? 1123 00:51:27,360 --> 00:51:28,759 Speaker 1: Like do you have to pass an interview with the 1124 00:51:28,800 --> 00:51:31,000 Speaker 1: College of Cardinals? How do you actually get to the 1125 00:51:31,000 --> 00:51:31,800 Speaker 1: folks of the interview? 1126 00:51:32,920 --> 00:51:35,440 Speaker 7: So here's I'm glad you asked. Here's where we stand. 1127 00:51:36,480 --> 00:51:41,680 Speaker 7: And anybody that has ever entered in to get tickets 1128 00:51:41,719 --> 00:51:48,000 Speaker 7: to Disney or entered in tickets for a concert or 1129 00:51:48,160 --> 00:51:51,239 Speaker 7: a lottery for World Cup tickets, what I can say 1130 00:51:51,239 --> 00:51:54,640 Speaker 7: to you right now is I am in the system. 1131 00:51:55,040 --> 00:51:59,080 Speaker 7: I am in the and so but here's what I 1132 00:51:59,120 --> 00:52:01,840 Speaker 7: mean by that. I was I was sent a lovely 1133 00:52:01,920 --> 00:52:05,680 Speaker 7: email which was largely in English, and then I went 1134 00:52:05,760 --> 00:52:09,520 Speaker 7: to the website that was linked to it, and that 1135 00:52:09,560 --> 00:52:13,239 Speaker 7: website was entirely an Italian which was beautiful. And I 1136 00:52:13,320 --> 00:52:16,520 Speaker 7: was basically invited to apply for credentials, and so I 1137 00:52:16,640 --> 00:52:20,880 Speaker 7: now have a media credential portal. It was. It was 1138 00:52:21,040 --> 00:52:24,960 Speaker 7: hilarious because I was looking at the names of the 1139 00:52:25,239 --> 00:52:28,640 Speaker 7: publications and so, like there was a drop down menu 1140 00:52:29,120 --> 00:52:33,440 Speaker 7: and I'm scrolling down. It was like, what what paper 1141 00:52:33,520 --> 00:52:36,480 Speaker 7: do you write for? It was like like La Tribuna 1142 00:52:37,040 --> 00:52:41,440 Speaker 7: is the Ario, New York Times, Financial Times, Wall Street Journal, 1143 00:52:41,480 --> 00:52:44,160 Speaker 7: like no, no, no, no, no no. So I had 1144 00:52:44,200 --> 00:52:46,520 Speaker 7: to go all the way to the bottom. And you 1145 00:52:46,560 --> 00:52:49,879 Speaker 7: know what you know when I checked al three, all 1146 00:52:50,000 --> 00:52:55,120 Speaker 7: three meaning the others, Because stunningly, MLB Network was not 1147 00:52:55,200 --> 00:52:59,279 Speaker 7: part of the Vatican's dropdown menu.
