1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,760
Speaker 1: Please don't listening to Fox Sports Radio Radio.

2
00:00:04,320 --> 00:00:08,600
Speaker 2: Greetings and welcome in another beautiful day here in the

3
00:00:08,760 --> 00:00:13,720
Speaker 2: tyrac dot com Fox Sports Radio Studios where your rate

4
00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:19,000
Speaker 2: is never exceeded ever twenty four seven, three sixty five.

5
00:00:19,440 --> 00:00:24,200
Speaker 2: Welcome in another beautiful Fox Sports Sunday. Mike Harmon alongside

6
00:00:24,320 --> 00:00:28,520
Speaker 2: Dan Bayer and Dan you know, yesterday was the day

7
00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:33,879
Speaker 2: that everybody said, what happened? Is it my device? My devices?

8
00:00:34,479 --> 00:00:38,360
Speaker 2: Have I been selected? Have I been pulled out as

9
00:00:38,720 --> 00:00:44,800
Speaker 2: the unwashed? As the unworthy? To scroll endlessly? Did someone

10
00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:48,320
Speaker 2: decide they wanted to save my thumbs and forced me

11
00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:52,400
Speaker 2: to go outside into the beautiful sunshine of southern California?

12
00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:55,360
Speaker 2: Will today be another day like that? We shall see

13
00:00:55,360 --> 00:00:56,680
Speaker 2: Mike Carbon Dan Byer.

14
00:00:56,760 --> 00:00:57,240
Speaker 3: What's going on?

15
00:00:57,440 --> 00:00:59,840
Speaker 4: If you wanted to keep up with NBA Free Agency?

16
00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:01,960
Speaker 4: Twitter was not the place to do it if you

17
00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:04,880
Speaker 4: only wanted to do it for a short amount of time,

18
00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:09,040
Speaker 4: wreaking havoc everywhere. I was still getting alerts on my phone,

19
00:01:09,319 --> 00:01:13,440
Speaker 4: but by about one o'clock local time in southern California,

20
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:15,720
Speaker 4: I was maxed out, And even on my phone I

21
00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:16,920
Speaker 4: am still maxed out.

22
00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:19,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, my great limit has been exceeded.

23
00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:22,280
Speaker 4: This is the h This is the phrase that could

24
00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:24,759
Speaker 4: also be used with some of the contracts that were

25
00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:26,720
Speaker 4: handed out in the NBA over the last day and

26
00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:29,360
Speaker 4: a half or so. But it is a crazy time.

27
00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:31,760
Speaker 4: I don't know if it was a July first rollout.

28
00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:33,880
Speaker 4: I don't know if it was a hey, let's just

29
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:36,760
Speaker 4: screw the sports fans who are trying to follow the

30
00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:40,920
Speaker 4: the NBA free agency period, or if it's just maybe,

31
00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:42,679
Speaker 4: uh yeah, let's just see how this thing goes.

32
00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:45,240
Speaker 2: What's always curious to me, and this goes to the

33
00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:50,120
Speaker 2: larger Twitter verse and its usage, right because a lot

34
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:52,600
Speaker 2: of the you know, was a public good that this guy. No,

35
00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:56,040
Speaker 2: it is always a company. Just you're gonna have different

36
00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:59,320
Speaker 2: people in charge. They're gonna direct it differently. And remember

37
00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:01,800
Speaker 2: that all of the are in our individual silos.

38
00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:02,200
Speaker 4: Right.

39
00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:04,480
Speaker 2: If you're a Swiftie, you're over here and you're gonna

40
00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:07,000
Speaker 2: bleed into some stuff, but most of your timeline is

41
00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:10,400
Speaker 2: going to be music, pop culture. Taylor Swift references to

42
00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:15,079
Speaker 2: concerts and bad exchanges and everything else. And then for us,

43
00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:18,480
Speaker 2: we are in the echo chamber that is the sports world.

44
00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:20,919
Speaker 2: So when all of a sudden, those walls go up

45
00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:24,320
Speaker 2: and make it difficult for the information to permeate. We

46
00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:26,800
Speaker 2: all kind of lose our minds and we start running

47
00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:30,000
Speaker 2: around in a circle or try to jump off a cliff,

48
00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:33,120
Speaker 2: like you know, the Lemmings and shiny metal boxes. But

49
00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:37,240
Speaker 2: it became a very interesting thing to see what was

50
00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:40,240
Speaker 2: going to pop through for me. You know you mentioned

51
00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:42,680
Speaker 2: the time, time of day. I was right in the

52
00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:44,880
Speaker 2: middle of enjoying a little bit of money in the

53
00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:49,480
Speaker 2: bank the WWE event that was coming live from London, right,

54
00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:53,960
Speaker 2: big deal. Scena comes back, Roman Reigns gets pinned for

55
00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:57,000
Speaker 2: the first time since twenty nineteen, trying.

56
00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:59,040
Speaker 3: To do the live view, live.

57
00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:02,239
Speaker 2: Tweet kind of interaction. Get into that hub and get

58
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:06,400
Speaker 2: the great big embrace. Absolutely my fellow nerdy wrestling fans

59
00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:10,040
Speaker 2: that can't shake it, right, It's that that addiction where

60
00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:12,000
Speaker 2: you tap it like, come on, I need my fix,

61
00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:17,240
Speaker 2: I need my instant analysis and replace rate limit exceeded.

62
00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:20,119
Speaker 2: No Cina's showed up. I want to see how much

63
00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:22,760
Speaker 2: people hate him, how much they love him. Even he

64
00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:24,680
Speaker 2: acknowledged it. It's like, come on, I'm used to you

65
00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:27,919
Speaker 2: singing John Cena sucks, but here you're excited to see

66
00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:29,880
Speaker 2: me I wanted the reaction and I couldn't get.

67
00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:30,320
Speaker 3: A dam bire.

68
00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:33,400
Speaker 4: I think we all tried to refresh our pages, tried

69
00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:36,520
Speaker 4: to clear our phone of the apps that we had used,

70
00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:38,800
Speaker 4: maybe tried to sign in and sign out to see

71
00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:42,200
Speaker 4: if we could trick the algorithm or however it's being

72
00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:45,040
Speaker 4: kept track of. But I know as of today my

73
00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:48,200
Speaker 4: phone was still where it was as of one o'clock

74
00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:52,320
Speaker 4: local time yesterday. The good news is the desktop computer

75
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:54,920
Speaker 4: that we've got in front of us that is still working.

76
00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:59,280
Speaker 4: But the Twitter limit issue number one. You know what,

77
00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:03,160
Speaker 4: it reminds me of Mike, And I know not everybody travels,

78
00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:05,920
Speaker 4: but I also know that not everyone uses Twitter, so

79
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:11,000
Speaker 4: this may not be reaching everybody that is listening, but

80
00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:13,480
Speaker 4: it reminds me of when airlines started to charge for

81
00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:18,160
Speaker 4: baggage fees, where you're just like, what, wait a second,

82
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:22,840
Speaker 4: I'm just paid then two hundred and fifty dollars for

83
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:27,080
Speaker 4: a plane ticket, and now you want me to pay

84
00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:30,640
Speaker 4: forty or thirty dollars twenty five dollars so I can

85
00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:34,320
Speaker 4: bring my suitcase. And I think it still ticks people

86
00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:37,120
Speaker 4: off to this day that you have to pay for

87
00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:39,960
Speaker 4: a bag and not every Airline does it. That is

88
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:43,359
Speaker 4: how I feel. This is right now, I can I

89
00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:46,880
Speaker 4: can understand like where it's coming from. Doesn't mean that

90
00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:48,880
Speaker 4: I have to like it or have to abide by it,

91
00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:52,560
Speaker 4: but at some point maybe I'm just going to have to.

92
00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:56,000
Speaker 2: Well, And that's the larger point right of the internet

93
00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:58,000
Speaker 2: use right. We were at Yah. I was at Yahoo

94
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:01,960
Speaker 2: when everything was free, wheel and clicks were everything and

95
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:05,760
Speaker 2: all of that, and then the market started to shift

96
00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:07,440
Speaker 2: and all of a sudden it became all right, what

97
00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:12,359
Speaker 2: can we monetize putting stuff behind paywalls? Me working in

98
00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:17,320
Speaker 2: the sports and fantasy sports phase, CBS, Sports Line, ESPN,

99
00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:20,080
Speaker 2: those were all pay for products. Right as you know,

100
00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:21,919
Speaker 2: you've been doing this a while. I've been doing this

101
00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:24,640
Speaker 2: a while. And for Yahoo were always a free game

102
00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:26,880
Speaker 2: that helped us grow to be the number one. We

103
00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:30,880
Speaker 2: also built the best product by far that anybody was using.

104
00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:35,119
Speaker 2: But that's a whole other thing. And then it became

105
00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:36,880
Speaker 2: a all right, let's have a big meeting to figure

106
00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:41,240
Speaker 2: out what part of our things we could we could monetize.

107
00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:43,720
Speaker 2: We had the stat Tracker, which was the beautiful Java

108
00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:47,800
Speaker 2: app that would load and refresh, and now it's ubiquitous,

109
00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:50,520
Speaker 2: but at the time you had to go pay big

110
00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:54,040
Speaker 2: money to be in a league here or there. Sure,

111
00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:56,120
Speaker 2: and for us it was free. But that was the

112
00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:58,680
Speaker 2: thing we could get you. So week one, here's the

113
00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:02,240
Speaker 2: beautiful app updates in real time. And I was the

114
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:03,920
Speaker 2: one that came up with it. And maybe I'd watch

115
00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:06,640
Speaker 2: way too many movies and TV shows. I go, well,

116
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:08,800
Speaker 2: you know they always say the first taste is free, right,

117
00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:12,000
Speaker 2: So I don't know that you want to pitch this

118
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:15,080
Speaker 2: to the founders this way, but you know it's always

119
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:17,479
Speaker 2: the guy on the street corner says, no, no, take this

120
00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:20,120
Speaker 2: one on me. You'll be back, And so we would

121
00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:22,320
Speaker 2: give you it for a week. Week two, you're back

122
00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:25,799
Speaker 2: on I need my life stats man, I need my fix,

123
00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:29,520
Speaker 2: and you would pay nine to ninety five for the individual,

124
00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:31,880
Speaker 2: or we had a price for the league to be

125
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:34,960
Speaker 2: able to access it. All of those things point being,

126
00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:39,680
Speaker 2: if you give folks stuff for free and then realize, well,

127
00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:44,400
Speaker 2: based on economic necessities or the ability of inelastic demand

128
00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:49,120
Speaker 2: to start charging for it, folks are gonna start fighting back.

129
00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:51,560
Speaker 2: And Twitter being one of those things, was a nice

130
00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:54,599
Speaker 2: free app, free information to flow, et cetera. And then

131
00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:57,520
Speaker 2: we start getting into teering and who's better than who,

132
00:06:57,600 --> 00:07:00,800
Speaker 2: and what do you pay for and whatever else. This

133
00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:03,400
Speaker 2: is just the beginning. I mean for all of these applications.

134
00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:07,480
Speaker 2: I would imagine, you know, if the advertising world is slow,

135
00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:09,760
Speaker 2: you've got to figure out somewhere. It's like all the

136
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:13,480
Speaker 2: streaming apps as well, Netflix and everything else, trying to

137
00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:17,080
Speaker 2: figure out how do we separate individual users as opposed

138
00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:21,640
Speaker 2: to one ID, one password being useful to many.

139
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:24,600
Speaker 4: What I think is interesting is I know Mike and

140
00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:27,880
Speaker 4: I and those of us that are here at Fox

141
00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:31,800
Speaker 4: Sports Radio come from a different point of where it

142
00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:36,720
Speaker 4: is such a daily point of just our jobs in

143
00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:40,400
Speaker 4: terms of hearing what other people are talking about with sports,

144
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:45,040
Speaker 4: that makes it almost a necessity for us. But I

145
00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:48,520
Speaker 4: just wonder on how many out there we'll make it

146
00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:53,600
Speaker 4: a necessity yesterday for the afternoon, and knowing that we

147
00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:56,320
Speaker 4: were having a show today. You want to keep alert

148
00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:59,320
Speaker 4: and keep up to data what was happening. But I

149
00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:02,960
Speaker 4: don't know if my life drastically changed or got worse

150
00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:05,880
Speaker 4: because of the couple of times I tried to go

151
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:08,160
Speaker 4: back on Twitter and then couldn't find anything.

152
00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:10,040
Speaker 2: Well, it allowed you to just go on with your

153
00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:12,400
Speaker 2: day go hit a website and then you did you

154
00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:15,120
Speaker 2: pick your best and I and I think in the end,

155
00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:19,000
Speaker 2: if this stays, we'll see because they've made some policy changes,

156
00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:22,960
Speaker 2: really realize the bad reaction whatever, or the check clears

157
00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:25,640
Speaker 2: from the contractor that was supposed to fix that bug.

158
00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:26,960
Speaker 3: Or whatever the case may be.

159
00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:31,280
Speaker 2: But it's curious again us being in in the business

160
00:08:31,280 --> 00:08:34,240
Speaker 2: we are. It's the scroll, all right, this piece of

161
00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:36,280
Speaker 2: news came through and like we're not. We're live on

162
00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:39,280
Speaker 2: air right you either in the update desk or when

163
00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:42,840
Speaker 2: when you're hosting me working with Smith at night while

164
00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:46,560
Speaker 2: he's pontificating about the latest Mets loss, I'm trying to

165
00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:48,959
Speaker 2: see what else is going on in the sporting universe

166
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:51,520
Speaker 2: to say, hey, we've got a story breaking here because

167
00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:53,680
Speaker 2: we want to we want to jump on it first, right,

168
00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:56,360
Speaker 2: we don't want it to wait and just date into

169
00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:58,960
Speaker 2: the night. I mean some stuff. Yeah, it's like, all right,

170
00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:02,040
Speaker 2: it's not big enough to interrupt whatever the flow is.

171
00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:05,960
Speaker 2: But first first blush opinions, that's what we're all about.

172
00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:11,280
Speaker 2: Tomorrow's takes tonight as the show goes, and Twitter doing

173
00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:15,120
Speaker 2: what it did yesterday again, I would check, I go, huh,

174
00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:19,520
Speaker 2: still says that. All right, go over to different blogs

175
00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:21,800
Speaker 2: and I'm not going to name them out here, but

176
00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:26,800
Speaker 2: you probably recognize the lot of them as to where

177
00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:29,720
Speaker 2: I might be able to get updated information. Saw the

178
00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:32,840
Speaker 2: latest signing, kind of shrugg going, that's a lot of money,

179
00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:34,080
Speaker 2: and then moved on.

180
00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:38,720
Speaker 4: My rate limit still has exceeded from eighteen hours ago.

181
00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:42,640
Speaker 2: Well, an object in motion tends to stay in motion.

182
00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:44,240
Speaker 2: An object at rest can I.

183
00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:47,880
Speaker 4: Say whatever it does refresh? There are also going to

184
00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:53,080
Speaker 4: be casualties of if you follow a substantial amount of people,

185
00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:56,880
Speaker 4: I would assume that you are being exposed to a

186
00:09:56,920 --> 00:10:00,240
Speaker 4: lot of tweets, which therefore would rack your number. We're

187
00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:01,640
Speaker 4: up pretty quickly.

188
00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:04,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know. I have so many beat writers and

189
00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:10,000
Speaker 2: people in our business across. Yeah, and athletes, entertainers, singers, whatever.

190
00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:11,920
Speaker 2: I'll be done in a matter of ten minutes.

191
00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:15,320
Speaker 4: Yes, I listened. In promoting our shows, I like to

192
00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:18,040
Speaker 4: send out tweets and say hey, we're doing this and that,

193
00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:23,520
Speaker 4: and maybe would retweets another tweet that somebody else sent out. Now,

194
00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:25,640
Speaker 4: now I'm like, all right, do you want to do that?

195
00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:27,920
Speaker 4: Do you want to inundate? Because I came in and

196
00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:31,160
Speaker 4: looked at Twitter this morning where it did work on

197
00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:33,880
Speaker 4: my computer, and in just thinking of it, you're like,

198
00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:37,840
Speaker 4: all right, somebody just retweeted five different things that I

199
00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:40,400
Speaker 4: don't care about. Now, am I gonna have to unfollow them?

200
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:43,600
Speaker 4: So I don't get those exposed to those five tweets

201
00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:48,240
Speaker 4: that end up taking a part of my maximum like it.

202
00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:51,200
Speaker 4: It's it's very minute. But in terms of like how

203
00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:53,680
Speaker 4: us and I do think that there is there is

204
00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:56,559
Speaker 4: something with sports fans. If you're a fan of the

205
00:10:56,559 --> 00:11:01,120
Speaker 4: Philadelphia Egos, you're following the local Philly station, you're following

206
00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:06,080
Speaker 4: the blogs that are covering the Philadelphia Eagles, probably covering

207
00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:10,040
Speaker 4: all of the NFL insiders. There's and that doesn't just

208
00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:12,640
Speaker 4: go for the Egos. It goes for every other fan

209
00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:16,280
Speaker 4: of any team in the NFL. And if you're like

210
00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:18,880
Speaker 4: you and me, Mike, you have favorite teams in other

211
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:22,560
Speaker 4: leagues or other places where you're following that team and

212
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:26,000
Speaker 4: you're following the insiders for that team and you're following

213
00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:29,680
Speaker 4: so like, it does add up. And so I think

214
00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:33,640
Speaker 4: as a sports community, I don't know what it's like

215
00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:35,640
Speaker 4: in the politics world. I don't know if people who

216
00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:38,240
Speaker 4: are following politics that use Twitter for it are up

217
00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:40,280
Speaker 4: in arms, but I feel like in the sports world

218
00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:44,040
Speaker 4: it has really wreaked havoc over these last twenty four hours.

219
00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:47,720
Speaker 2: If nothing else, my purge is now on, as in,

220
00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:49,320
Speaker 2: I'm not going to spend a lot of time on this.

221
00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:52,839
Speaker 2: Let's bring in our guy, Isaac Loewen Krown, who's frantically

222
00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:53,880
Speaker 2: waving past me the.

223
00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:57,840
Speaker 5: Ball as I typically do around here. This is a

224
00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:02,520
Speaker 5: really big topic in our world, including for our listeners,

225
00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:05,120
Speaker 5: because of the way we do consume sports. And one

226
00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:08,400
Speaker 5: thing I could add is that I just noticed on

227
00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:11,319
Speaker 5: my feed. Obviously you would think that the main thing

228
00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:15,760
Speaker 5: that this affects is people's reading and consumption of tweets

229
00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:20,720
Speaker 5: and information, but I've noticed that fewer sports media people

230
00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:24,280
Speaker 5: are tweeting period. So for example, when I come in

231
00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:26,560
Speaker 5: and wake up like you guys on a Sunday morning,

232
00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:28,880
Speaker 5: and I check all the overnight feed, there's a ton

233
00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:32,000
Speaker 5: of tweets. I would say there were five times fewer

234
00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:35,199
Speaker 5: tweets from people in sports media putting news and information

235
00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:36,960
Speaker 5: out there than there usually are.

236
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:37,520
Speaker 3: Because of this.

237
00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:41,040
Speaker 5: On a personal note, obviously, it limits the time that

238
00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:45,680
Speaker 5: we spent on Twitter off hours. Yesterday afternoon, I learned

239
00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:48,400
Speaker 5: all this time, I thought we had one kid. It

240
00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:51,480
Speaker 5: turns out we have two kids. I thought that kid,

241
00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:56,480
Speaker 5: I thought that, I thought, yeah, I thought that other

242
00:12:56,559 --> 00:12:59,719
Speaker 5: kid just running around was was my wife's nephew or something.

243
00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:01,160
Speaker 3: It's that we have two kids.

244
00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:04,480
Speaker 4: So frustrating. How frustrated were you that you couldn't tweet

245
00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:06,120
Speaker 4: about it because you already reached.

246
00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:09,640
Speaker 2: Literally, I just learned something really new at Isaac Low

247
00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:12,040
Speaker 2: and Crown where you find them on Twitter at Dan

248
00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:14,800
Speaker 2: Byron Fox, find me at Swollen Dome. I will be

249
00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:18,559
Speaker 2: judicious and its juice. I will find another way to reach.

250
00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:21,360
Speaker 2: You can find me at Harmon rants on TikTok. You

251
00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:24,880
Speaker 2: got Dan at Bayer Talk. I mean it's now time

252
00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:29,120
Speaker 2: to expand, take these golden wings and learn to fly again.

253
00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:33,000
Speaker 2: As it were broadcasting live from the tyrack dot Com studios.

254
00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:36,400
Speaker 2: Tyrack dot com, We'll help you get there. An unmatched selection, fast,

Speaker 2: recommended installers. Tyrack dot com the way tire buying should be.

257
00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:47,000
Speaker 2: We've got ethan, we've got marked. The team is fully assembled,

258
00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:51,760
Speaker 2: and sugar is flowing in the building. I stood in

259
00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:54,000
Speaker 2: line diligently, and I'm looking at the clock. Owed, you

260
00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:57,040
Speaker 2: gotta be fast. Fill these orders. Fill these orders. So

261
00:13:57,160 --> 00:14:00,400
Speaker 2: donuts are here. Our guys will be fighting over them,

262
00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:02,720
Speaker 2: which is always the good thing, which means our three

263
00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:05,080
Speaker 2: and four of the show and of Pep in the

264
00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:06,360
Speaker 2: step energy.

265
00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:10,280
Speaker 4: These are the donuts that Ethan last time proclaimed they

266
00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:14,160
Speaker 4: are the best donuts ever within an earshot of me,

267
00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:18,679
Speaker 4: who brought in different donuts the week prior, which totally

268
00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:22,080
Speaker 4: rubbed it in my face that my donuts were not

269
00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:25,960
Speaker 4: as good as what Ethan was currently consuming at that time.

270
00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:28,960
Speaker 2: I want to say that was probably more of just

271
00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:34,120
Speaker 2: a circumstance of desperation for a sugar fix and to

272
00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:38,960
Speaker 2: rise from the high.

273
00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:44,960
Speaker 4: Seven days ago Ethan. I'm sure it wasn't that much better. Like, geez,

274
00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:47,640
Speaker 4: what a shot sugar. They are very good. They are

275
00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:48,680
Speaker 4: great donuts.

276
00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:53,480
Speaker 2: She cares, they care. It's a good group. The guy

277
00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:55,000
Speaker 2: was loading a van full of them. I don't know

278
00:14:55,080 --> 00:14:55,840
Speaker 2: what he was doing, But.

279
00:14:57,160 --> 00:14:59,360
Speaker 4: Why didn't you do USA donuts on a Fourth of

280
00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:02,440
Speaker 4: July week end? I mean, that's I.

281
00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:06,800
Speaker 2: I just went to the place I've been buying donuts

282
00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:08,640
Speaker 2: from for the last how.

283
00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:10,920
Speaker 4: Many years have I been here. That's very inside. The

284
00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:14,160
Speaker 4: local donut shop is called USA Donuts Bias, and it's

285

287
00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:26,320

310
00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:47,200
Speaker 2: posted on on Instagram something my ex used to call

311
00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:51,640
Speaker 2: the Devil's jukebox. I can't have silence. It's a thing

312
00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:54,400
Speaker 2: I'm trying to work through. It's a I don't know

313
00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:57,680
Speaker 2: that I should talk this out therapeutically with somebody or whatever.

314
00:16:57,880 --> 00:17:00,560
Speaker 2: But it's like, I can't have silence in your home.

315
00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:02,120
Speaker 4: You need the TV on or.

316
00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:04,080
Speaker 2: I need something. But we could be in the middle

317
00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:06,240
Speaker 2: of the nature hike, in the middle of the most

318
00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:07,639
Speaker 2: beautiful mountains in the world.

319
00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:08,720
Speaker 3: I can't.

320
00:17:08,840 --> 00:17:13,080
Speaker 2: I can't, which meant whatever song would come to mind, boom,

321
00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:16,000
Speaker 2: there I am, And you know, so it's that kind

322
00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:17,480
Speaker 2: of thing. So relating back to.

323
00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:20,760
Speaker 4: My singing to yourself, like.

324
00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:22,440
Speaker 2: Like a loud enough to where like it it would

325
00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:25,879
Speaker 2: drown out the quiet because the silence is deafening. It's

326
00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:28,280
Speaker 2: a very weird thing. It's been portrayed in plenty of

327
00:17:28,320 --> 00:17:30,400
Speaker 2: movies and TV shows, but it's that.

328
00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:30,800
Speaker 3: Kind of thing.

329
00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:34,880
Speaker 2: And that's where Twitter and the rate limit exceeded kind

330
00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:36,440
Speaker 2: of kind of got me a minute. It's like, because

331
00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:40,360
Speaker 2: it's noise, it's not audible, but it's still noise as

332
00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:41,440
Speaker 2: you flow through.

333
00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:42,840
Speaker 4: That it is. And there's been a lot of noise

334
00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:46,399
Speaker 4: of the NBA over the past you know, gosh, I

335
00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:49,480
Speaker 4: say day and a half because it didn't really get

336
00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:52,440
Speaker 4: going until six o'clock Eastern time on Friday.

337
00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:55,879
Speaker 2: Nothing legitimate, a lot of rumor, conjecture, speculation before, but

338
00:17:56,080 --> 00:18:00,480
Speaker 2: until we got to the actual ringing of the bell

339
00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:03,160
Speaker 2: like the opening of the stock market, yes, and away

340
00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:03,440
Speaker 2: we went.

341
00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:05,879
Speaker 4: But once it did, I mean, it was I mean

342
00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:11,240
Speaker 4: we're talking. I saw when Twitter was normal, I saw

343
00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:15,640
Speaker 4: a tweet that said it had best remaining free agents

344
00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:19,040
Speaker 4: or the names of you know who was still available.

345
00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:23,520
Speaker 4: And basically the point was, all right, there's there's maybe

346
00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:28,240
Speaker 4: one name out there of great substance that you didn't

347
00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:30,800
Speaker 4: know what was going to happen. And this was before

348
00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:35,159
Speaker 4: Dame's trade request that came out. But in terms of

349
00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:39,479
Speaker 4: free agency, everybody was everyone was pretty much accounted for.

350
00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:41,679
Speaker 4: I think it was basically at the point of the

351
00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:44,239
Speaker 4: post which has now been settled Brook Lopez, I think

352
00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:47,240
Speaker 4: was the name where you're just like, all right, what's

353
00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:49,199
Speaker 4: gonna happen? Is he gonna go to Houston? Is he

354
00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:52,520
Speaker 4: going to stay in Milwaukee? But that's how rapid fire

355
00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:55,240
Speaker 4: things turned out, where everyone was accounted for in that

356
00:18:55,320 --> 00:18:56,879
Speaker 4: first twelve hours or so, and it was.

357
00:18:56,880 --> 00:19:01,280
Speaker 2: A curiosity, right, we are a blessed to Jason and I.

358
00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:04,480
Speaker 2: In the evenings, we get our Rick Bucker fixed. Rick

359
00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:07,040
Speaker 2: Buker over on Speak on FS one.

360
00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:07,719
Speaker 3: Uh.

361
00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:10,600
Speaker 2: You see him on the couch with with Colin uh

362
00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:13,719
Speaker 2: and talking NBA, and and Rick comes on with Jason

363
00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:16,600
Speaker 2: and I once a week. Uh, like Jay Glazer, he

364
00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:20,400
Speaker 2: calls us, you know, his knuckleheads, the term of affection

365
00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:23,280
Speaker 2: of We're probably gonna ask questions that come from angles

366
00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:25,720
Speaker 2: and get you into places we're like, do I really

367
00:19:25,760 --> 00:19:28,320
Speaker 2: have to answer that kind of I thing? Maybe maybe

368
00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:32,080
Speaker 2: maybe cutting through the mess and getting down to brass

369
00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:34,960
Speaker 2: tacts as to ask answer. I mean, it's a matter

370
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:37,800
Speaker 2: of relationships and we we pride ourselves on that as

371
00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:40,320
Speaker 2: I know you do with the guys you you talked

372
00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:43,120
Speaker 2: to on your shows, Dan, but with Ricky, with all

373
00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:46,040
Speaker 2: the activity that was going on, he just said, I

374
00:19:46,040 --> 00:19:47,640
Speaker 2: don't I don't know that any of it really moves

375
00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:48,040
Speaker 2: the needle.

376
00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:49,240
Speaker 6: Right.

377
00:19:49,240 --> 00:19:52,040
Speaker 2: It's a lot of money, right, very impactful from a

378
00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:55,719
Speaker 2: dollar and cents, But in terms of shuffling up the

379
00:19:55,760 --> 00:19:59,200
Speaker 2: pecking order of the n b A, how much did

380
00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:04,440
Speaker 2: it really chick And now we're another forty eight hours,

381
00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:07,640
Speaker 2: well thirty six hours removed from our conversation with him then,

382
00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:10,919
Speaker 2: and you saw some more pieces kind of pushed together,

383
00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:14,640
Speaker 2: and I'm sorry, you know. The teas coming into this

384
00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:19,040
Speaker 2: discussion was the Lakers did a lot of stuff that

385
00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:21,040
Speaker 2: I as much as I don't want it because there's

386
00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:24,280
Speaker 2: too many Laker fans around this building, too many people

387
00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:26,919
Speaker 2: I know in my life living here in southern California

388
00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:31,439
Speaker 2: that are insufferable when they're good. Add the Lebron factor

389
00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:33,760
Speaker 2: and it goes to a whole other level of I

390
00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:38,000
Speaker 2: can't deal with you anymore. But everything Rob Polinka did,

391
00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:41,560
Speaker 2: even to the players that for the casual fan it

392
00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:46,399
Speaker 2: doesn't matter. Are all chips that make sense. Now they've

393
00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:48,680
Speaker 2: taken all the cast offs that haven't gotten in trouble

394
00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:51,720
Speaker 2: or haven't played decided they can't play. From the twenty

395
00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:55,000
Speaker 2: nineteen draft, right, Tyler here is probably gonna get traded

396
00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:57,400
Speaker 2: as part of this name thing, whether it's a three

397
00:20:57,400 --> 00:20:59,639
Speaker 2: team of four team. We'll talk about that coming up

398
00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:03,560
Speaker 2: about a half hour. Job Morant is Job Morant, and

399
00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:07,680
Speaker 2: obviouslyion Zion Williamson Sunday morning. We really can't get into

400
00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:09,600
Speaker 2: all the stuff that he's been up to.

401
00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:13,400
Speaker 4: But he's gonna be again into detail.

402
00:21:13,560 --> 00:21:15,640
Speaker 2: Well, but that's just it. But that's just it. He's

403
00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:19,119
Speaker 2: got a lot of stuff going off the court, and

404
00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:21,639
Speaker 2: I don't really want to bring in the you know,

405
00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:24,840
Speaker 2: think good thoughts all of those stuff. But otherwise you

406
00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:28,280
Speaker 2: got Jackson Hayes, pretty good player, not gonna fill the

407
00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:32,920
Speaker 2: stat sheet, but defense, rebounding, and the LOB gives them

408
00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:36,440
Speaker 2: a cheap reserve as a big. That's where I want

409
00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:39,080
Speaker 2: to Brook Lopez. If like, if we're really just going

410
00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:42,320
Speaker 2: the wish list of how guys are gonna move around,

411
00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:48,000
Speaker 2: it was he either stays in Milwaukee or mid level. Well,

412
00:21:48,040 --> 00:21:52,240
Speaker 2: as we recognize pretty fast, big big gap between mid

413
00:21:52,320 --> 00:21:55,120
Speaker 2: level and what he ended up getting to stay with Milwaukee,

414
00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:57,520
Speaker 2: because that's a bigger question for the Bucks, the two

415
00:21:57,600 --> 00:22:01,000
Speaker 2: big moves that they made in turn of their long

416
00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:05,400
Speaker 2: term looks and appeal to their superstar to say, hey,

417
00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:09,080
Speaker 2: we're committing to keeping you here. But for the Lakers,

418
00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:13,480
Speaker 2: Jackson Hayes, you bring back Hatchamura, you re signed DeAngelo Russell.

419
00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:16,600
Speaker 2: You bring in Gabe Vincent from the Heat, a guy

420
00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:19,639
Speaker 2: who's now been through the grind and gives you a

421
00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:23,800
Speaker 2: little bit of toughness in your second unit. Just keep

422
00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:26,600
Speaker 2: going on down the line. Austin Reeves comes back. So

423
00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:29,359
Speaker 2: some of what you'd already built and now adding a

424
00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:33,280
Speaker 2: few extra chips to bring out and round out your rotation.

425
00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:36,280
Speaker 2: So at least early in the season in the quote

426
00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:39,760
Speaker 2: meaningless time of the NBA, Lebron and Ad don't have

427
00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:42,480
Speaker 2: to have the wear and tear and whatever Lebron's got

428
00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:45,439
Speaker 2: going that finished his year where we talked about his

429
00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:49,600
Speaker 2: foot and how healthier whatever was going on there real imagined,

430
00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:53,399
Speaker 2: or just play the violin for me. Michael Malone is

431
00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:57,560
Speaker 2: you know she's speaking, I'm you know, half channeling the

432
00:22:57,640 --> 00:23:01,120
Speaker 2: Michael Malone talk there is. It's more time for him

433
00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:03,199
Speaker 2: to rest up and heal because as we know, the

434
00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:07,000
Speaker 2: only meaningful basketball really anymore is the end of February

435
00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:10,679
Speaker 2: forward jockeying to make sure you're in the playoffs and

436
00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:12,480
Speaker 2: being ready and available in the playoffs.

437
00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:15,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, you do. It's changed. You don't just turn the

438
00:23:15,359 --> 00:23:18,200
Speaker 4: switch on in mid April anymore. You actually have to

439
00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:21,800
Speaker 4: have some sort of resemblance of a team and how

440
00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:24,520
Speaker 4: that team plays over the stretch from the All Star

441
00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:27,000
Speaker 4: Game they all start breaking to the end of the season.

442
00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:29,520
Speaker 4: I think does weigh into how you're going to perform

443
00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:33,119
Speaker 4: in the playoffs. And the Lakers kept the pieces that

444
00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:37,280
Speaker 4: they needed to keep. But also you just signed Gabe Vincent,

445
00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:42,199
Speaker 4: who's coming off of an NBA playoffs run where there

446
00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:44,520
Speaker 4: were knights, where he was the second best player on

447
00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:47,400
Speaker 4: the floor for the Miami Heat, And so now you've

448
00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:50,880
Speaker 4: added that. And to start off, when you mentioned what

449
00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:53,600
Speaker 4: Rick Buker was saying is it doesn't move the needle.

450
00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:57,000
Speaker 4: And I think that there's two reasons for that. Number One,

451
00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:03,439
Speaker 4: that was the NBA five years ago. That was the

452
00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:07,640
Speaker 4: end when you're wondering where's Kevin Durant gonna go, what's

453
00:24:07,680 --> 00:24:10,200
Speaker 4: he gonna do, what's Kauhi gonna do? Where's he gonna sign?

454
00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:13,160
Speaker 4: Those were the Those were the moves, and we are

455
00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:17,240
Speaker 4: talking about at that time, guys who are top five,

456
00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:21,199
Speaker 4: top three in the NBA. However you wanted to put it,

457
00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:27,960
Speaker 4: that's how much of a monumental move those things were.

458
00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:30,719
Speaker 4: Because we're talking about top three and top five guys.

459
00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:33,200
Speaker 4: I don't think that the guys that we are talking

460
00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:36,840
Speaker 4: about are top three and top five guys. They just aren't.

461
00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:40,520
Speaker 4: And so now you don't have that in free agency

462
00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:43,600
Speaker 4: moving the needle. But the other thing is, and this

463
00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:46,480
Speaker 4: is what ties into the Lakers thing, and it ties

464
00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:49,560
Speaker 4: into the Nuggets in a sense, it kind of ties

465
00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:53,919
Speaker 4: into the Bucks. As you mentioned, is the movement of

466
00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:59,560
Speaker 4: these big names is not reflective of how you're going

467
00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:04,320
Speaker 4: to perform and where you are. So right now, has

468
00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:09,280
Speaker 4: anybody done anything to knock Denver off of their perch?

469
00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:13,600
Speaker 4: And I think if you were to honestly say probably not.

470
00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:15,960
Speaker 4: I don't think the addition of Bradley Beal and Phoenix

471
00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:20,880
Speaker 4: may threaten it a little bit. But right now, Denver appears,

472
00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:24,560
Speaker 4: until we start playing games, appears to not have a

473
00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:27,680
Speaker 4: challenger to knock them off. Mike, Now, the Lakers may

474
00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:31,719
Speaker 4: be better but is the addition of Gabe Vincent and

475
00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:35,600
Speaker 4: Cam Reddish enough to avoid a sweep. No, I don't think.

476
00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:39,160
Speaker 2: Here's the other twenty nineteen edition, Cam Reddish, who's now

477
00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:44,320
Speaker 2: becoming the well traveled as yet to achieve his ceiling,

478
00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:46,200
Speaker 2: Cam Reddish, can he be unlocked?

479
00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:48,639
Speaker 4: Ear we're the you know, we're the chance to do it.

480
00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:52,680
Speaker 4: But what the Lakers have done are trying to do

481
00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:57,240
Speaker 4: now are what successful teams in the NBA are now

482
00:25:57,680 --> 00:26:01,480
Speaker 4: trying to do. And so you see with Denver, and

483
00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:05,880
Speaker 4: it's not a Denver blueprint necessarily, but to have continuity,

484
00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:07,879
Speaker 4: to try to carry things over, to try to build

485
00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:11,199
Speaker 4: towards something that is more of the world instead of

486
00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:15,960
Speaker 4: just adding a superstar which we saw five years ago

487
00:26:16,119 --> 00:26:21,199
Speaker 4: or whatever and moving On's let's again another example of

488
00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:25,080
Speaker 4: different NBA. And I think it's reflective in free agency

489
00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:30,439
Speaker 4: that even the biggest of names that are available, Kyrie Irving,

490
00:26:31,359 --> 00:26:35,440
Speaker 4: his signing to the Mavericks was more criticized than anything.

491
00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:39,520
Speaker 4: James harden I compared it to the Office the other day,

492
00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:41,720
Speaker 4: like the further you got away from Michael Scott, the

493
00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:44,199
Speaker 4: less interested I got. The further he gets away from

494
00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:48,000
Speaker 4: the Rockets, with another stop and another stop and another stop.

495
00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:51,400
Speaker 4: The less interested that I am, and I think that's

496
00:26:51,440 --> 00:26:53,320
Speaker 4: the case in the NBA. But I do think it's

497
00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:56,720
Speaker 4: the you know, Rob Polinka following maybe a path set

498
00:26:56,720 --> 00:27:00,560
Speaker 4: by teams like the Denver Nuggets in terms of building

499
00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:03,760
Speaker 4: their squad and doing it maybe within or keeping that

500
00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:06,760
Speaker 4: core together. That's why I think that we haven't seen

501
00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:08,040
Speaker 4: that needle move as much.

502
00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:11,680
Speaker 2: Can I ask you, are you more Robert California guy

503
00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:13,000
Speaker 2: or a di'angelo Vickers?

504
00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:18,520
Speaker 4: I am a diam David Brent guy. Yes, the UK version,

505
00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:20,360
Speaker 4: the Ricky Gervas.

506
00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:21,639
Speaker 2: So all the way back to Ricky Gervas.

507
00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:24,520
Speaker 4: So maybe maybe it would be James Harden with the

508
00:27:24,600 --> 00:27:26,320
Speaker 4: thunder that you could put it that way.

509
00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:28,800
Speaker 2: Take them all the way back to the origin story. No,

510
00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:33,160
Speaker 2: it's true. It's it's building blocks and the kyrie thing.

511
00:27:33,440 --> 00:27:36,000
Speaker 2: We'll get into as the show develops, but it's just

512
00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:40,000
Speaker 2: gonna shrug. Like with some of these names. They're huge names,

513
00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:42,840
Speaker 2: and in the annals of history we're gonna do our

514
00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:45,080
Speaker 2: top ten lists here there or whatever, a lot of

515
00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:47,040
Speaker 2: these guys are gonna be littered in. But do they

516
00:27:47,040 --> 00:27:48,240
Speaker 2: move the needle at this point?

517
00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:48,520
Speaker 3: Right?

518
00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:52,919
Speaker 2: We saw the odds for the heat shift dramatically with

519
00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:55,800
Speaker 2: the idea that Dame Lillard is coming to town. We

520
00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:59,600
Speaker 2: have no idea what's going out to be able to

521
00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:02,520
Speaker 2: facilitate that and whether you need a third or a

522
00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:05,679
Speaker 2: fourth team to help make all that happen. But we

523
00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:08,760
Speaker 2: watch their odds go from fourteen to one down to

524
00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:11,080
Speaker 2: nine or ten to one, a little bit of hey,

525
00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:15,000
Speaker 2: let's limit our exposure here in the event that this

526
00:28:15,080 --> 00:28:17,760
Speaker 2: does happen, not leaving a huge two huge a gap.

527
00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:21,960
Speaker 2: But like, that's the one move that that was juiced.

528
00:28:22,040 --> 00:28:24,440
Speaker 2: Otherwise it was a lot of re signing back where

529
00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:29,160
Speaker 2: you were again continuity. We celebrated elsewhere, Like we talk

530
00:28:29,200 --> 00:28:31,399
Speaker 2: about it all the time, you and me, Jason and

531
00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:36,960
Speaker 2: I like where you hold those organizations that add instead

532
00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:40,000
Speaker 2: of just you know, your kid with the blocks sweeping

533
00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:41,920
Speaker 2: it all back to the ground. Do where you got

534
00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:43,760
Speaker 2: to build back from ground one.

535
00:28:43,920 --> 00:28:46,080
Speaker 4: I think there are This is just off the top

536
00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:48,040
Speaker 4: of my head. I don't have a list, so don't

537
00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:49,520
Speaker 4: hold me to it. But I would say that there

538
00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:52,800
Speaker 4: seems to just be a handful of teams that are

539
00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:55,400
Speaker 4: still trying to do it the other way or the

540
00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:58,800
Speaker 4: old way. And I look at Mike. I just look

541
00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:03,560
Speaker 4: at the MVP voting for this past year, and when

542
00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:09,080
Speaker 4: you have Joel Embiid winning the award in Philadelphia. I

543
00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:12,000
Speaker 4: know James Harden leaves, but that seems to be a

544
00:29:12,280 --> 00:29:16,200
Speaker 4: unique situation and however it's going to work out. It's

545
00:29:16,200 --> 00:29:20,360
Speaker 4: going to work out, but Philadelphia will probably get some

546
00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:23,720
Speaker 4: pieces to work around him, and maybe they fall backwards

547
00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:28,400
Speaker 4: into trying to develop something because you're trading away James Harden.

548
00:29:28,440 --> 00:29:33,360
Speaker 4: But Giannis right now entrench to Milwaukee, Jokic obviously entrenched

549
00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:37,080
Speaker 4: in Denver. Shay Gildess, Alexander was a guy who got

550
00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:41,800
Speaker 4: MVP votes, finished fifth, He's there in OKC. Jason Tatum's

551
00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:45,880
Speaker 4: not going anywhere in Boston. Again, different different times in

552
00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:48,239
Speaker 4: the NBA. These guys aren't aren't being moved. You're not

553
00:29:48,320 --> 00:29:52,560
Speaker 4: wondering where's you know, where's Jason Tatum going next? Like

554
00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:56,440
Speaker 4: those conversations just aren't happening right now, and it's not

555
00:29:56,560 --> 00:29:58,760
Speaker 4: the way of the NBA. It was different than it

556
00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:01,360
Speaker 4: was five years ago. Like we're talking if we did

557
00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:04,040
Speaker 4: a ranking, Like for as much as Damian Becau, Damian

558
00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:06,320
Speaker 4: Lillard has been the conversation that has not been Kyrie

559
00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:08,959
Speaker 4: Irving and it has not been James Harden, but like,

560
00:30:09,000 --> 00:30:11,400
Speaker 4: there's ways that you can actually even poke holes and

561
00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:14,040
Speaker 4: Dames game to be like, Okay, what does he do defensively?

562
00:30:14,560 --> 00:30:17,720
Speaker 4: This and that and so so when we're talking about

563
00:30:17,720 --> 00:30:19,760
Speaker 4: the caliber of the NBA players that used to be there,

564
00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:23,400
Speaker 4: it's just it's not like it once was, when everything

565
00:30:23,520 --> 00:30:26,880
Speaker 4: was really crazy and almost wild wild west ish.

566
00:30:26,840 --> 00:30:31,320
Speaker 2: Big wild swings. The addition of that second level of

567
00:30:31,480 --> 00:30:36,560
Speaker 2: taxation when it comes to the luxury luxury tax for

568
00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:40,840
Speaker 2: lack of a better term, for NBA teams right where

569
00:30:40,840 --> 00:30:42,720
Speaker 2: we saw moves being made, it's like, look how much

570
00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:46,480
Speaker 2: that'll save them in terms of what this guy twenty

571
00:30:46,520 --> 00:30:49,600
Speaker 2: one million dollars. Exercise it this way because it saves

572
00:30:49,640 --> 00:30:53,000
Speaker 2: them one hundred million over here. It's it's fuzzy math,

573
00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:55,640
Speaker 2: but it's part of the CBA. Hey, at the end

574

Speaker 2: Now be kick it over to our guy, Isaac Lowen

578
00:31:07,720 --> 00:31:10,800
Speaker 2: kron lots going on we'll see if his limit and

579
00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:12,200
Speaker 2: his rate is still exceeded.

580
00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:16,160
Speaker 5: It is exceeded. However, fortunately for certain people, most of

581
00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:19,160
Speaker 5: them who are tall, rate limits not being exceeded in

582
00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:23,240
Speaker 5: the NBA because Sacramento King center Domontes Sebonis has agreed

583
00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:26,280
Speaker 5: to a five year, two hundred and seventeen million dollar extension,

584
00:31:26,720 --> 00:31:29,680
Speaker 5: Dylan Brooks, formerly of Memphis, gets a four year, eighty

585
00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:32,440
Speaker 5: million dollar deal with the Houston Rockets. In a related story,

586
00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:35,240
Speaker 5: Lebron James will now average fifty points a game against

587
00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:39,000
Speaker 5: the Rockets next season. Dante de Vincenzo agrees to a

588
00:31:39,040 --> 00:31:41,560
Speaker 5: four year, fifty million dollar contract with the New York

589
00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:44,640
Speaker 5: knicksty Angelo Russell returns to the Los Angeles Lakers for

590
00:31:44,680 --> 00:31:48,000
Speaker 5: two years and thirty seven million. In Major League Baseball,

591
00:31:48,040 --> 00:31:50,360
Speaker 5: on Saturday night, at the Kansas City Royals defeated the

592
00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:53,360
Speaker 5: Los Angeles Dodgers after a ninety minute rain delay, six

593
00:31:53,400 --> 00:31:55,440
Speaker 5: to four, as the Royals scored five in the first

594
00:31:55,480 --> 00:31:59,000
Speaker 5: sitting off Dodgers starter Julio Urias at Wrigley, they had

595
00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:01,960
Speaker 5: a two hour and forty five minute rain delay. After that,

596
00:32:02,120 --> 00:32:05,000
Speaker 5: the Cleveland Guardians blank the Cubs six to nothing. The

597
00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:08,040
Speaker 5: Detroit Tigers and ten innings, one at Colorado forty two,

598
00:32:08,120 --> 00:32:10,920
Speaker 5: the Tigers Zach McKinstry go ahead three run home run

599
00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:13,640
Speaker 5: in the top of the tenth inning, and the Yankees

600
00:32:13,680 --> 00:32:16,120
Speaker 5: one at Saint Louis on Saturday night, six to two

601
00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:19,200
Speaker 5: to split a double header. Fellas, I've hit my ray

602

Speaker 2: the Tirac dot com studios. You mentioned Dylan Brooks, You

611
00:32:46,880 --> 00:32:50,880
Speaker 2: mentioned Lebron James. James had some comments about a classic

612
00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:53,880
Speaker 2: and I was wondering if Dylan Brooks might be able

613
00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:57,600
Speaker 2: to employ this defensive strategy. That's an interesting part of

614
00:32:57,600 --> 00:33:02,400
Speaker 2: the criticism. But there's one very glaring thing Lebron missed

615
00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:05,280
Speaker 2: when getting into film school. We'll tell you what it

616

00:34:08,239 --> 00:34:09,680
Speaker 3: It's never a big zz top.

640
00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:12,200
Speaker 2: I once had a uh and Iowa say it will

641
00:34:12,239 --> 00:34:14,239
Speaker 2: be in a few minutes. I once had the order

642
00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:18,120
Speaker 2: on shows that I did. It's like, there's like three

643
00:34:18,160 --> 00:34:20,960
Speaker 2: bands I just don't want to hear because we overused them,

644
00:34:21,160 --> 00:34:24,120
Speaker 2: like we would play them incessantly. And zz Top was

645
00:34:24,120 --> 00:34:26,319
Speaker 2: one of those bands. What and I don't like I've

646
00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:28,879
Speaker 2: done with it really Yeah, this is the first time

647
00:34:28,920 --> 00:34:30,520
Speaker 2: we've had it in a while, so I'm good.

648
00:34:30,760 --> 00:34:32,319
Speaker 4: Was that a shot at Mark? Did you just?

649
00:34:32,840 --> 00:34:33,080
Speaker 3: Yeah?

650
00:34:33,080 --> 00:34:35,520
Speaker 2: I just I just threw it on his way out.

651
00:34:35,640 --> 00:34:36,360
Speaker 4: That's cold.

652
00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:38,839
Speaker 2: He's not done yet, he still has more to do.

653
00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:40,880
Speaker 4: Sharp dress Man.

654
00:34:42,719 --> 00:34:45,800
Speaker 2: Just saying I'm not saying there were they were bad songs,

655
00:34:46,160 --> 00:34:48,719
Speaker 2: just saying for a while, as bumpers here on Fox

656
00:34:48,760 --> 00:34:53,840
Speaker 2: Sports Radio, it's like we didn't have access to other music,

657
00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:56,799
Speaker 2: and it was just like why it's like we get

658
00:34:56,800 --> 00:34:59,400
Speaker 2: on ty Shirt in in our evening show with Jason

659
00:34:59,600 --> 00:35:02,680
Speaker 2: and my elf, like because he loves to torment Jason

660
00:35:02,719 --> 00:35:05,480
Speaker 2: by poking the bear with two or three songs that

661
00:35:05,520 --> 00:35:07,000
Speaker 2: he will use right now, he's out of tears for

662
00:35:07,640 --> 00:35:11,680
Speaker 2: Tears for Fears gick and it drives Jason insane, and

663
00:35:11,719 --> 00:35:13,719
Speaker 2: we keep inviting him because Here's for Fears is coming

664
00:35:13,719 --> 00:35:16,719
Speaker 2: to Southern California twice in the next four months and

665
00:35:16,760 --> 00:35:17,640
Speaker 2: he wants no part of it.

666
00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:20,520
Speaker 4: Oh I saw that when concert years back, so they

667
00:35:20,520 --> 00:35:22,880
Speaker 4: over took Colin Oats because they were actually on the

668
00:35:22,880 --> 00:35:27,440
Speaker 4: same billiing as Hall and Oates. Yes, for they were great,

669
00:35:27,680 --> 00:35:28,719
Speaker 4: they were magnificent.

670
00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:30,239
Speaker 3: I look forward to it.

671
00:35:30,520 --> 00:35:32,680
Speaker 2: But yeah, so that back to the mid eighties, that

672
00:35:33,040 --> 00:35:35,759
Speaker 2: was the point of getting a little zz top in there.

673
00:35:36,280 --> 00:35:40,040
Speaker 2: Lebron James, Dylan Brooks. You heard Nilo's update, Dylan Brooks

674
00:35:40,040 --> 00:35:44,040
Speaker 2: getting his money from Houston part of a huge backcourt

675
00:35:44,840 --> 00:35:50,600
Speaker 2: dollar drop in the planet Houston. But in Lebron James,

676
00:35:50,640 --> 00:35:53,080
Speaker 2: I'm wondering if he can be defended by Dylan Brooks

677
00:35:53,320 --> 00:35:57,160
Speaker 2: this way. Lebron took to Twitter. He's going in it

678
00:35:57,239 --> 00:35:58,960
Speaker 2: because you know, sometimes you got to go back in

679
00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:01,359
Speaker 2: and take in classics, and in this case, a man

680
00:36:01,400 --> 00:36:04,160
Speaker 2: who's been in space Jam two decided I'm gonna go

681
00:36:04,200 --> 00:36:08,480
Speaker 2: look at other great examples of basketball in film history,

682
00:36:08,680 --> 00:36:10,520
Speaker 2: and he decided to go back to the classic from

683
00:36:10,600 --> 00:36:15,400
Speaker 2: nineteen eighty five of Teen Wolf. Quote, sitting here watching

684
00:36:15,440 --> 00:36:18,239
Speaker 2: Teen Wolf, the last basketball scene when he didn't go

685
00:36:18,320 --> 00:36:21,440
Speaker 2: back to the Wolf is the funniest basketball I've ever seen.

686
00:36:22,760 --> 00:36:26,080
Speaker 2: And why how is old buddy standing under the rim

687
00:36:26,160 --> 00:36:28,880
Speaker 2: at the end as he wins the game with free throws.

688
00:36:29,640 --> 00:36:30,440
Speaker 3: So Michael J.

689
00:36:30,600 --> 00:36:37,400
Speaker 2: Fox gets fouled and the bully, the nemesis the rival

690
00:36:37,520 --> 00:36:39,799
Speaker 2: in a fifty one to fifty one game as the

691
00:36:39,880 --> 00:36:46,239
Speaker 2: everything clears out, is standing under the basket. Now, I

692
00:36:46,280 --> 00:36:50,640
Speaker 2: think this is the least egregious of things going on

693
00:36:50,800 --> 00:36:54,759
Speaker 2: in the movie, in that you have a a guy

694
00:36:54,800 --> 00:36:57,680
Speaker 2: who led his team through the title by the premise

695
00:36:57,719 --> 00:37:00,080
Speaker 2: of the name of the film, by being able to

696
00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:03,239
Speaker 2: turn into a wolf, and instead of all the other

697
00:37:03,280 --> 00:37:07,440
Speaker 2: things we normally have with were wolves, his skill and

698
00:37:07,480 --> 00:37:09,399
Speaker 2: the thing that gets tight in his ability to leap

699
00:37:09,440 --> 00:37:10,440
Speaker 2: and play basketball.

700
00:37:10,640 --> 00:37:14,319
Speaker 4: It's pretty It's pretty amazing. The the amazing part is

701
00:37:14,360 --> 00:37:17,759
Speaker 4: that the a half man, half wolf could play basketball

702
00:37:17,760 --> 00:37:20,040
Speaker 4: and run the pick and roll as well as he

703
00:37:20,080 --> 00:37:24,120
Speaker 4: did in that game. I don't even think to Lebron's

704
00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:27,560
Speaker 4: example that he used. It was the most egregious thing

705
00:37:27,560 --> 00:37:33,000
Speaker 4: in the clip in the In the last scene where

706
00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:38,560
Speaker 4: he's shooting the free throw spoiler alert and the defenders

707
00:37:38,640 --> 00:37:42,680
Speaker 4: under the hoop for an obvious lane violation, Michael J.

708
00:37:42,840 --> 00:37:45,879
Speaker 4: Fox shot a jump shot at the free throw line.

709
00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:51,120
Speaker 4: I do like it is there's I have a big

710
00:37:51,160 --> 00:37:55,360
Speaker 4: problem with that. There's nobody does that. Maybe there was

711
00:37:55,400 --> 00:37:57,360
Speaker 4: one guy back in the day that was able to

712
00:37:57,360 --> 00:37:59,600
Speaker 4: shoot a jump shot at the free throw line. But

713
00:37:59,719 --> 00:38:04,120
Speaker 4: when you talk about trying to get everything set, Michael J.

714
00:38:04,239 --> 00:38:07,360
Speaker 4: Fox at the free throw line shooting a jumper with

715
00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:10,680
Speaker 4: a game on the line in no time left. By

716
00:38:10,719 --> 00:38:14,520
Speaker 4: the way, if the guy is under the hoop, shouldn't

717
00:38:14,520 --> 00:38:17,319
Speaker 4: he shouldn't everybody be off the line anyway? Like you

718
00:38:17,400 --> 00:38:19,719
Speaker 4: have a lane violation. I know he's standing under it,

719
00:38:19,760 --> 00:38:22,400
Speaker 4: like directly the ball falls directly, like so you wouldn't

720
00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:24,920
Speaker 4: even you wouldn't even line people up if there was

721
00:38:24,960 --> 00:38:26,000
Speaker 4: no time left on the clock.

722
00:38:26,080 --> 00:38:29,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean the biggest crime. I mean, and we're

723
00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:31,360
Speaker 2: missing the thing. This is where the obvious thing comes in.

724
00:38:31,880 --> 00:38:34,600
Speaker 2: The one of the guys had a hairline worse than

725
00:38:34,719 --> 00:38:38,160
Speaker 2: anything Lebron or I have before we paint it back in.

726
00:38:39,320 --> 00:38:41,279
Speaker 2: These guys are all thirty five years old that are

727
00:38:41,360 --> 00:38:44,640
Speaker 2: running around. I mean, this is the next level of

728
00:38:44,680 --> 00:38:47,719
Speaker 2: Beverly Hills nine o two oh in terms of age.

729
00:38:47,880 --> 00:38:52,240
Speaker 2: Like my guy that sets sets the pick for him.

730
00:38:52,120 --> 00:38:54,160
Speaker 3: It had to be as old as I am now.

731
00:38:55,440 --> 00:38:57,920
Speaker 4: I mean the hair on his chest. Wasn't just props

732
00:38:57,960 --> 00:39:02,399
Speaker 4: for a wolf or anything. Was actually there. Yeah, there's

733
00:39:02,680 --> 00:39:05,880
Speaker 4: there's a guy that looks like he's forty eight and repairs,

734
00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:07,520
Speaker 4: you know, washer and drive.

735
00:39:08,440 --> 00:39:10,960
Speaker 2: But like all of these things, the guy standing under

736
00:39:11,000 --> 00:39:13,960
Speaker 2: the basket, it's it's a film.

737
00:39:14,280 --> 00:39:16,360
Speaker 4: I said that a tweet once of a Brady Bunch

738
00:39:16,360 --> 00:39:20,800
Speaker 4: clip where Bobby gets mauled in the driveway by Greg

739
00:39:20,800 --> 00:39:24,960
Speaker 4: and Peter, and I called it the worst call in

740
00:39:25,040 --> 00:39:29,440
Speaker 4: basketball history. Actually occurred in a Brady Bunch episode, and

741
00:39:29,520 --> 00:39:33,839
Speaker 4: the tweet took off and Steve Kerr liked it. Oh nice, Yes,

742
00:39:33,920 --> 00:39:36,120
Speaker 4: I was sitting there one night. It was.

743
00:39:36,600 --> 00:39:36,920
Speaker 3: It was.

744
00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:42,239
Speaker 4: It was an awful call. Grandma Hutchins called charging when

745
00:39:43,320 --> 00:39:48,720
Speaker 4: Bobby was tackled by Greg and Peter. Other people spotted

746
00:39:48,760 --> 00:39:51,319
Speaker 4: a double dribble. It's in one of the top five

747
00:39:51,360 --> 00:39:54,920
Speaker 4: worst episodes of the Brady Bunch. But still, you gotta

748
00:39:54,960 --> 00:39:58,200
Speaker 4: have better art direction in these places where you're gonna

749
00:39:58,200 --> 00:40:00,400
Speaker 4: watch over and over and teen will fail like the

750
00:40:00,400 --> 00:40:01,200
Speaker 4: Brady Bunch did.

751
00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:05,160
Speaker 2: It's always always one of the classics that we go

752
00:40:05,320 --> 00:40:09,000
Speaker 2: back to. But yeah, my guy standing under the basket

753
00:40:09,040 --> 00:40:12,040
Speaker 2: the least egregious of all of the things going on.

754
00:40:12,320 --> 00:40:15,239
Speaker 2: He's Dan Bayer. I'm by Carmen, Fox Sports Sunday Here.

Speaker 2: And if you tuned in, you said, wow, it's halftime,

772
00:41:15,120 --> 00:41:19,439
Speaker 2: it's thirty three nothing. Captain Kirk is ready to beat

773

Speaker 2: me down.

774
00:41:20,040 --> 00:41:22,319
Speaker 4: This game was aired yesterday as well. I didn't think

775
00:41:22,360 --> 00:41:24,839
Speaker 4: we needed to see it again, but apparently we do.

776
00:41:25,040 --> 00:41:27,239
Speaker 2: It's like the stuff on your timeline in Twitter. You're

777
00:41:27,280 --> 00:41:30,719
Speaker 2: not getting new stuff. You're getting this re regurgitated.

778
00:41:30,160 --> 00:41:34,480
Speaker 4: Big day in golf. Mike Harmon. Not only will Ricky

00:42:05,120 --> 00:42:09,120
Speaker 4: and Jerry Kelly. Wis Scott's native. Steve Stricker just a

791
00:42:20,600 --> 00:42:21,280
Speaker 4: this afternoon.

792
00:42:21,480 --> 00:42:24,880
Speaker 2: Longer and Stricker. I hear those names and they're on

793
00:42:24,920 --> 00:42:27,000
Speaker 2: the Senior tour, means I've been doing this a while.

794
00:42:27,800 --> 00:42:29,480
Speaker 2: You've got a couple of years before you hit that

795
00:42:29,560 --> 00:42:31,040
Speaker 2: age limit. What are you think and you can You're

796
00:42:31,080 --> 00:42:32,880
Speaker 2: gonna be able to get your game in shape to.

797
00:42:33,560 --> 00:42:37,520
Speaker 4: Probably jump on. Probably not, it's probably not gonna It's

798
00:42:37,560 --> 00:42:42,520
Speaker 4: not gonna happen for me. Uh, it's just it's unfortunately, Mike,

799
00:42:42,560 --> 00:42:46,560
Speaker 4: I'm just gonna have to be chopping up the fairways,

800
00:42:46,719 --> 00:42:52,080
Speaker 4: taking huge divots, hitting big slices and duck hooks the Uh. Yes,

801
00:42:52,160 --> 00:42:54,200
Speaker 4: there will be no there will be no next level

802
00:42:54,239 --> 00:42:57,320
Speaker 4: golf for me, none at all. I'll just have to

803
00:42:57,360 --> 00:42:58,960
Speaker 4: sit on the sidelines like we did at the US

804
00:42:59,040 --> 00:43:01,520
Speaker 4: Open a few weeks ago. That wasn't too shabby though, No,

805
00:43:02,080 --> 00:43:04,279
Speaker 4: it was a good time. I wish I was there

806
00:43:04,280 --> 00:43:07,120
Speaker 4: this weekend in Wisconsin to check this out. But I'll

807
00:43:07,160 --> 00:43:10,239
Speaker 4: be sitting at home Flower Hole, the sixteenth hole. It's

808
00:43:10,239 --> 00:43:13,440
Speaker 4: all decked out in flowers. Part three. Played Century World

809
00:43:13,440 --> 00:43:15,400
Speaker 4: a bunch, been lucky enough. It's a nice track.

810
00:43:15,520 --> 00:43:17,960
Speaker 2: No, that is pretty nice. That's not a bad way

811
00:43:17,960 --> 00:43:21,399
Speaker 2: to go. And so we get into our fun of

812
00:43:21,840 --> 00:43:26,360
Speaker 2: what is in playing now. We've got big streaks in

813
00:43:26,440 --> 00:43:29,720
Speaker 2: Major League Baseball, some good, some ugly. A week before

814
00:43:29,760 --> 00:43:33,560
Speaker 2: the All Star festivities right at Home run Derby on

815
00:43:33,600 --> 00:43:37,920
Speaker 2: the tenth and people lamenting who's in who's not participating.

816
00:43:38,880 --> 00:43:42,560
Speaker 2: It's player's choice. You can't force them into participating in

817
00:43:42,640 --> 00:43:45,000
Speaker 2: these things. I mean, you could try to legislate it.

818
00:43:45,040 --> 00:43:48,080
Speaker 2: In we're broadcasting live from the tyrac dot com studios

819
00:43:48,120 --> 00:43:51,120
Speaker 2: tyrack dot com. We'll help you get there an unmatched selection, fast,

820
00:43:51,239 --> 00:43:54,160
Speaker 2: free shipping, free road hazard protection, and over ten thousand

821
00:43:54,160 --> 00:43:58,279
Speaker 2: recommended installers. Tyrac dot com the way tire buying should be.

822
00:43:58,440 --> 00:44:02,560
Speaker 2: And Dan, the number one story that continues to outside

823
00:44:02,560 --> 00:44:06,040
Speaker 2: of the Twitter debacle is the fun and exciting world

824
00:44:06,080 --> 00:44:10,000
Speaker 2: of NBA free agency. You hear in Isaac's updates. You know,

825
00:44:10,200 --> 00:44:13,760
Speaker 2: we're talking about two hundred million dollar extensions and here's

826
00:44:13,800 --> 00:44:16,480
Speaker 2: fifty six million dollars for a guy that showed you

827
00:44:16,880 --> 00:44:19,520
Speaker 2: over a handful of games that he might be the guy.

828
00:44:19,920 --> 00:44:22,560
Speaker 2: And look what the market will bear. Whatever you all

829
00:44:22,600 --> 00:44:26,480
Speaker 2: get in your jobs, ask for a dollar more. Keep pushing, right,

830
00:44:26,560 --> 00:44:29,480
Speaker 2: that's the that's the thing. Find that other. If you're

831
00:44:29,480 --> 00:44:32,160
Speaker 2: not satisfied, well you can move. And that's what we

832
00:44:32,200 --> 00:44:35,319
Speaker 2: see in free agency. I like what we're building here,

833
00:44:35,440 --> 00:44:38,439
Speaker 2: but we can do something different. And the big thing

834
00:44:38,520 --> 00:44:41,840
Speaker 2: that has changed this time around is that Damian Lillard

835
00:44:41,840 --> 00:44:46,360
Speaker 2: has now officially asked to be gone from the world

836
00:44:46,400 --> 00:44:49,319
Speaker 2: to Portland all the years of I'm loyal, I'm not

837
00:44:49,480 --> 00:44:52,520
Speaker 2: doing this, I'm not chasing when all these other stars

838
00:44:52,520 --> 00:44:55,719
Speaker 2: are moving around. We talked about it last hour, just

839
00:44:55,920 --> 00:44:58,759
Speaker 2: some of these guys. It's it's just hopping, right. It

840
00:44:58,840 --> 00:45:01,720
Speaker 2: used to be on your resume in the corporate world,

841
00:45:02,080 --> 00:45:03,640
Speaker 2: well why did you only stay at a job for

842
00:45:03,680 --> 00:45:05,400
Speaker 2: a year or two? It was seen as a negative.

843
00:45:05,480 --> 00:45:07,799
Speaker 2: Now it's I had an opportunity, I can move in

844
00:45:07,880 --> 00:45:08,360
Speaker 2: the OA.

845
00:45:08,640 --> 00:45:10,359
Speaker 4: Why did you stay so long? That's right?

846
00:45:12,160 --> 00:45:14,040
Speaker 2: What was it about it that made you stayed? Were

847
00:45:14,040 --> 00:45:15,400
Speaker 2: you just not ambitious?

848
00:45:15,440 --> 00:45:15,680
Speaker 3: Why?

849
00:45:15,960 --> 00:45:16,720
Speaker 2: Why suddenly?

850
00:45:16,840 --> 00:45:17,000
Speaker 3: Now?

851
00:45:17,560 --> 00:45:17,680
Speaker 4: Uh?

852
00:45:17,840 --> 00:45:20,520
Speaker 2: And And that's one of the things for Damian Lillard

853
00:45:20,960 --> 00:45:23,880
Speaker 2: and clearly from the montage of things he started to

854
00:45:24,000 --> 00:45:28,040
Speaker 2: respond to in social media. You know, he recognized the

855
00:45:28,040 --> 00:45:30,600
Speaker 2: engineer and he had a lot of fans showing love

856
00:45:30,760 --> 00:45:32,960
Speaker 2: right here. He is a man of the city and

857
00:45:33,040 --> 00:45:36,120
Speaker 2: of the people. And one of the theories has always

858
00:45:36,120 --> 00:45:39,000
Speaker 2: been the all right, I'm gonna be different. I like

859
00:45:39,080 --> 00:45:43,479
Speaker 2: it here, I'm comfortable here. Pressure here is we either

860
00:45:43,560 --> 00:45:46,440
Speaker 2: overachieve or if we fall short, it's not gonna be

861
00:45:46,480 --> 00:45:49,960
Speaker 2: on me. And you know, there's a nice thing. And

862
00:45:50,040 --> 00:45:53,200
Speaker 2: also I'm not a villain, right because there's always gonna

863
00:45:53,239 --> 00:45:56,280
Speaker 2: be some percentage of the fan base, and how loud

864
00:45:56,360 --> 00:45:59,759
Speaker 2: that is depends on the player and the person you are, right,

865
00:45:59,800 --> 00:46:02,920
Speaker 2: and your own personal lives. Everybody out there listening, wherever

866
00:46:02,920 --> 00:46:05,720
Speaker 2: you may be, you get that right, there's that degree

867
00:46:05,760 --> 00:46:10,080
Speaker 2: of guilt within the stuff that gets projected on you

868
00:46:10,480 --> 00:46:14,880
Speaker 2: and then the larger play. And for Damian Lillard, you know,

869
00:46:15,320 --> 00:46:17,319
Speaker 2: for me looking at it, Dan, it's part of it

870
00:46:17,320 --> 00:46:20,359
Speaker 2: has been. It's a nice comfortable place to be make

871
00:46:20,400 --> 00:46:23,440
Speaker 2: a good living. You're kind of a hero in a

872
00:46:23,560 --> 00:46:27,160
Speaker 2: small town and when you perform well, everybody pays attention.

873
00:46:27,400 --> 00:46:29,320
Speaker 2: But if you don't, you're Portland.

874
00:46:30,000 --> 00:46:30,200
Speaker 3: Yeah.

875
00:46:30,280 --> 00:46:32,800
Speaker 4: I think that. I think that he had the best

876
00:46:32,840 --> 00:46:37,600
Speaker 4: of intentions, and I hope we don't hear any comments.

877
00:46:37,640 --> 00:46:40,400
Speaker 4: I know we will, but I hope it's not a

878
00:46:40,440 --> 00:46:46,200
Speaker 4: lot of you know, Damian Lillard's jumping ship. Damian Lillard, yep.

879
00:46:46,600 --> 00:46:49,239
Speaker 4: Just like all the rest of the NBA players that

880
00:46:49,360 --> 00:46:52,280
Speaker 4: want out and don't want to stick around, Damian Lillard's

881
00:46:52,320 --> 00:46:55,120
Speaker 4: another one. I hope that's not the case, because it

882
00:46:55,160 --> 00:46:59,080
Speaker 4: really isn't. The guy turns thirty three this offseason, and

883
00:46:59,160 --> 00:47:02,600
Speaker 4: when you look at where Portland is right now I

884
00:47:02,680 --> 00:47:07,360
Speaker 4: get it, like I understand where he's thinking. If you

885
00:47:07,360 --> 00:47:12,240
Speaker 4: were to talk peek Damian Lillard, it is probably coming

886
00:47:12,280 --> 00:47:14,400
Speaker 4: at some point within the next two or three years,

887
00:47:15,680 --> 00:47:20,279
Speaker 4: when he's thirty six, that game will start to diminish. Now,

888
00:47:20,280 --> 00:47:23,120
Speaker 4: you can still play at a high level, but it

889
00:47:23,200 --> 00:47:25,960
Speaker 4: may not be to where you are currently. And to

890
00:47:26,000 --> 00:47:28,480
Speaker 4: look at the makeup of the roster, to see where

891
00:47:28,480 --> 00:47:31,359
Speaker 4: they have been, to see what they have tried to do,

892
00:47:32,320 --> 00:47:35,680
Speaker 4: I get it. The one thing I don't get Mike, though,

893
00:47:36,320 --> 00:47:40,480
Speaker 4: is what changed this week, because on Monday we found

894
00:47:40,520 --> 00:47:44,800
Speaker 4: out that Lillard and his reps met with Blazer's GM

895
00:47:44,880 --> 00:47:49,399
Speaker 4: Joe Cronin. The message that was put out was let's

896
00:47:49,400 --> 00:47:52,560
Speaker 4: see how things go in free agency. Let's see how

897
00:47:52,560 --> 00:47:55,640
Speaker 4: it plays out. And then at that point I Mike

898
00:47:55,920 --> 00:47:58,680
Speaker 4: thought we would get something this coming week to say like,

899
00:47:59,520 --> 00:48:02,680
Speaker 4: hey kind of won out. But what ended up happening

900
00:48:02,880 --> 00:48:05,560
Speaker 4: was all of the news started to leak at six

901
00:48:05,600 --> 00:48:10,000
Speaker 4: o'clock Eastern three o'clock Pacific on Friday, of all the

902
00:48:10,040 --> 00:48:13,719
Speaker 4: players that were signing in free agency, even though they

903
00:48:13,719 --> 00:48:16,680
Speaker 4: couldn't be official, we had heard all these deals. One

904
00:48:16,719 --> 00:48:19,720
Speaker 4: of the dominoes that we had heard was Damian Lillard

905
00:48:20,080 --> 00:48:24,920
Speaker 4: wanted Jeremy Grant to stay in Portland. Guess what, Jeremy

906
00:48:24,920 --> 00:48:27,920
Speaker 4: Grant staying in Portland When that signing happened, I think

907
00:48:27,960 --> 00:48:31,919
Speaker 4: we thought, Okay, well, maybe there's something here. And then

908
00:48:33,120 --> 00:48:36,040
Speaker 4: in the less than twenty four hours, the eighteen hours

909
00:48:36,040 --> 00:48:41,040
Speaker 4: that players could sign deals to that point, Damian Lillard

910
00:48:41,080 --> 00:48:44,400
Speaker 4: just requested a trade. So did you want them to

911
00:48:44,440 --> 00:48:47,000
Speaker 4: go and get James Harden? Did you want them to

912
00:48:47,080 --> 00:48:51,080
Speaker 4: sign Kyrie Irving? Who did you want them to sign

913
00:48:51,239 --> 00:48:54,920
Speaker 4: that would change your mind from what happened in the

914
00:48:54,960 --> 00:48:57,400
Speaker 4: meeting earlier in the week. That's the part that I

915
00:48:57,480 --> 00:49:01,320
Speaker 4: don't understand. And I'm not calling Damian Lillard a liar

916
00:49:01,360 --> 00:49:04,719
Speaker 4: by any means. I just want to know was he

917
00:49:04,760 --> 00:49:06,480
Speaker 4: always did he always want to be traded? Mike? Was

918
00:49:06,480 --> 00:49:09,239
Speaker 4: this the point, because I was under the impression that

919
00:49:09,280 --> 00:49:12,920
Speaker 4: Portland was going to have free agency, to show Damian

920
00:49:12,960 --> 00:49:15,400
Speaker 4: Lillard what he could put together, what they could put together,

921
00:49:15,800 --> 00:49:18,439
Speaker 4: and if at that point it wasn't good enough, then

922
00:49:19,000 --> 00:49:21,560
Speaker 4: he would choose to move on. Did they not get

923
00:49:21,560 --> 00:49:23,800
Speaker 4: a deal done for bam at a Bio, which is

924
00:49:23,840 --> 00:49:26,319
Speaker 4: obviously the case that we had heard over the last

925
00:49:26,320 --> 00:49:28,399
Speaker 4: couple of weeks at Portland maybe thought they could put

926
00:49:28,440 --> 00:49:32,000
Speaker 4: something together. Was that the reason it was just weird

927
00:49:32,040 --> 00:49:36,320
Speaker 4: to me from the positioning that we heard on Monday

928
00:49:36,360 --> 00:49:39,759
Speaker 4: that happened so quickly, Mike, I thought this week again

929
00:49:39,760 --> 00:49:42,840
Speaker 4: that we would get something. Hey, Portland didn't do what

930
00:49:42,840 --> 00:49:45,080
Speaker 4: they wanted to do in the last week and a half.

931
00:49:45,440 --> 00:49:48,480
Speaker 4: Maybe it's best that day moves on instead. It's just

932
00:49:48,920 --> 00:49:50,319
Speaker 4: all right, he wants out now.

933
00:49:50,520 --> 00:49:53,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, the curiosity and I agree with you, it's the

934
00:49:53,440 --> 00:50:01,120
Speaker 2: timeline there. It's like, did Lillard in the early week conversations,

935
00:50:02,040 --> 00:50:04,360
Speaker 2: did he just orchestrate it to get Jeremy Grant the

936
00:50:04,360 --> 00:50:06,600
Speaker 2: biggest bag he could could be?

937
00:50:06,760 --> 00:50:06,960
Speaker 4: Right?

938
00:50:07,040 --> 00:50:09,840
Speaker 2: Did a solid for a buddy like, Hey, I'm probably

939
00:50:09,880 --> 00:50:11,800
Speaker 2: not gonna be here. I'm gonna try to get myself

940
00:50:11,840 --> 00:50:15,960
Speaker 2: out of here, but let's get you as big a

941
00:50:16,000 --> 00:50:18,719
Speaker 2: contract as we can. Maybe a little bit of love

942
00:50:18,800 --> 00:50:21,640
Speaker 2: that way, and then you still can push your way

943
00:50:22,239 --> 00:50:25,520
Speaker 2: and say, hey, this wasn't good enough, because that's the

944
00:50:25,560 --> 00:50:28,239
Speaker 2: hard part, even at eleven years. And that's the other thing,

945
00:50:28,440 --> 00:50:31,840
Speaker 2: like it always blows my mind. We look at damn Lord,

946
00:50:31,880 --> 00:50:36,279
Speaker 2: he's on it's been in eleven years already, and toiling there.

947
00:50:36,280 --> 00:50:38,760
Speaker 2: You've got Simons, You've got you bring in Scoot Henderson.

948
00:50:39,080 --> 00:50:42,239
Speaker 2: You've got a pretty good base with you. There isn't

949
00:50:42,360 --> 00:50:45,520
Speaker 2: enough to leap all the teams in the Western Conference.

950
00:50:45,760 --> 00:50:47,719
Speaker 2: I don't know every one of them's fraught with some

951
00:50:47,800 --> 00:50:50,239
Speaker 2: sort of question mark. We talked about the Lakers a

952
00:50:50,239 --> 00:50:54,280
Speaker 2: little bit last hour. You've got the Nuggets. They lose Brown,

953
00:50:55,920 --> 00:50:58,960
Speaker 2: they ran a pretty short rotation. That's actually at least

954
00:50:59,000 --> 00:51:01,880
Speaker 2: short term sizeable loss for them as he goes to

955
00:51:01,960 --> 00:51:06,360
Speaker 2: Indiana on his deal. But you know, for Portland and

956
00:51:06,400 --> 00:51:12,120
Speaker 2: for Damian Lillard, now like bam Adebayo potentially being that guy,

957
00:51:12,200 --> 00:51:16,320
Speaker 2: well now he's the teammate, Like what what are we expecting?

958
00:51:16,360 --> 00:51:19,240
Speaker 2: And all this because now it's how do you orchestrate

959
00:51:19,280 --> 00:51:22,040
Speaker 2: a trade for a player of that magnitude to make

960
00:51:22,080 --> 00:51:25,520
Speaker 2: it work? And we've seen Duncan Robinson, Tyler, hero draft picks,

961
00:51:26,000 --> 00:51:29,240
Speaker 2: the rumor of a third team or a fourth team,

962
00:51:29,560 --> 00:51:32,840
Speaker 2: and it becomes a round robin shifting of players and

963
00:51:32,960 --> 00:51:36,400
Speaker 2: draft picks. But for Damian Lillard, like I'm just curious

964
00:51:36,440 --> 00:51:38,399
Speaker 2: with the timeline good guy, bad guy. I don't care,

965
00:51:38,680 --> 00:51:40,440
Speaker 2: Like if you're gonna be portrayed as the bad guy.

966
00:51:40,440 --> 00:51:42,480
Speaker 2: I always say, just embrace it like that was my

967
00:51:42,560 --> 00:51:46,120
Speaker 2: big problem with the the Heatles back in the day,

968
00:51:46,160 --> 00:51:48,640
Speaker 2: as they're so affectionately known. It's like, you didn't think

969
00:51:48,680 --> 00:51:52,440
Speaker 2: this was gonna rankle some feathers, right, Lebron and Dwayne

970
00:51:52,440 --> 00:51:55,719
Speaker 2: Wade crying and whatever else. And history's changed on that,

971
00:51:55,760 --> 00:51:59,000
Speaker 2: by the way. Some folks like h Wade embraced like, no,

972
00:51:59,080 --> 00:52:02,120
Speaker 2: he didn't ick And watch how those guys reacted to

973
00:52:02,160 --> 00:52:05,359
Speaker 2: people booing them and the bad press they got. They

974
00:52:05,400 --> 00:52:08,000
Speaker 2: all crying about it, Yes, every last one of them.

975
00:52:08,200 --> 00:52:10,480
Speaker 2: Yes I didn't expect to, Like, sure you did. You

976
00:52:10,600 --> 00:52:13,320
Speaker 2: upset the apple cart and changed the rules of engagement

977
00:52:13,800 --> 00:52:17,799
Speaker 2: to which I am like, good, take advantage, take agency

978
00:52:18,160 --> 00:52:20,479
Speaker 2: as much as you can. And for Damon Lollard, same

979
00:52:20,480 --> 00:52:23,040
Speaker 2: thing here. Just recognize that there are going to be

980
00:52:23,080 --> 00:52:26,759
Speaker 2: some questions, particularly as you look at the timeline and

981
00:52:26,800 --> 00:52:29,439
Speaker 2: the public comments from the team as well, because they're

982
00:52:29,480 --> 00:52:31,719
Speaker 2: not going down without a fight. And that's the thing

983
00:52:31,760 --> 00:52:34,320
Speaker 2: I kind of like about it. We have these conversations

984
00:52:34,800 --> 00:52:38,319
Speaker 2: best interest, right, goodwill, whatever, we're getting the best deal

985
00:52:38,360 --> 00:52:41,640
Speaker 2: we can for ourselves. We want to accommodate him, yes,

986
00:52:42,520 --> 00:52:43,800
Speaker 2: but we're not giving him away.

987
00:52:44,000 --> 00:52:47,359
Speaker 4: Yeah, I just I don't think that he I hope

988
00:52:47,360 --> 00:52:50,040
Speaker 4: he's not a villain. I always not thought of that

989
00:52:50,120 --> 00:52:55,480
Speaker 4: way because they've tried. He's been about as loyal as

990
00:52:55,520 --> 00:53:00,320
Speaker 4: you can be. And listen, they didn't make get to

991
00:53:00,360 --> 00:53:03,600
Speaker 4: a Western Conference final. They were swept. But there is

992
00:53:03,640 --> 00:53:09,080
Speaker 4: a little taste of it Portland. Here's here's another thing.

993
00:53:09,200 --> 00:53:12,000
Speaker 4: And actually I feel bad for Portland. I feel bad

994
00:53:12,040 --> 00:53:16,960
Speaker 4: for the city and the fans. Hopefully better days are ahead.

995
00:53:17,000 --> 00:53:18,920
Speaker 4: I know that they wish things would have been better

996
00:53:19,000 --> 00:53:21,640
Speaker 4: for Damian Lillard than they were, but he gave them

997
00:53:22,000 --> 00:53:25,759
Speaker 4: some awesome memories. My question is if they would have

998
00:53:25,880 --> 00:53:30,440
Speaker 4: won the lottery, does this change? Does they were able

999
00:53:30,440 --> 00:53:32,640
Speaker 4: to move up? They were actually one of the teams

1000
00:53:32,640 --> 00:53:35,680
Speaker 4: that moved up into that those top four picks and

1001
00:53:35,840 --> 00:53:39,040
Speaker 4: ended up with number three and something got the second

1002
00:53:39,120 --> 00:53:43,120
Speaker 4: best player in the draft and who some think would

1003
00:53:43,120 --> 00:53:46,480
Speaker 4: have been the first overall pick. And say next year's draft,

1004
00:53:46,520 --> 00:53:48,840
Speaker 4: if there was no Victor Webbin Yama in this draft,

1005
00:53:48,840 --> 00:53:52,680
Speaker 4: there's a lot, there's a lot that actually went Portland's way.

1006
00:53:52,680 --> 00:53:54,960
Speaker 4: But if they would have won the lottery and got

1007
00:53:55,000 --> 00:53:58,800
Speaker 4: the ultimate prize, you know, does a Victor Webbin Yama

1008
00:53:58,960 --> 00:54:02,719
Speaker 4: keep Damian Lillard in Portland? And I think that it

1009
00:54:02,800 --> 00:54:07,440
Speaker 4: does because I've of all the usual suspects that we

1010
00:54:07,480 --> 00:54:13,600
Speaker 4: have heard in trade Miami Brooklyn was a team. Ramona

1011
00:54:13,680 --> 00:54:17,840
Speaker 4: Shelburne of ESPN mentioned San Antonio, which I thought it

1012
00:54:17,880 --> 00:54:20,799
Speaker 4: was very interesting because saying that Damian Lillard has a

1013
00:54:20,800 --> 00:54:24,040
Speaker 4: great amount of respect for Greg Popovich. Well, what do

1014
00:54:24,080 --> 00:54:26,800
Speaker 4: the Spurs have that would make Damian Lillard want to

1015
00:54:26,840 --> 00:54:29,919
Speaker 4: go play for the San Antonio Spurs? And what would

1016
00:54:29,960 --> 00:54:32,320
Speaker 4: the Spurs really want to give up this into Portland

1017
00:54:32,400 --> 00:54:35,919
Speaker 4: for someone like Damian Lillard. That's where I feel bad

1018
00:54:35,960 --> 00:54:38,880
Speaker 4: for I feel bad for Portland in that aspect of

1019
00:54:39,400 --> 00:54:41,560
Speaker 4: you know, they did they did get Scoot Henderson and

1020
00:54:41,560 --> 00:54:46,640
Speaker 4: hopefully it's a long term sort of relationship there. But yeah,

1021
00:54:46,719 --> 00:54:49,160
Speaker 4: you just lost a superstar and now it's time to

1022
00:54:49,200 --> 00:54:51,600
Speaker 4: rebuild and to no fault of their own. Not that

1023
00:54:51,680 --> 00:54:54,440
Speaker 4: I don't feel bad for the Trailblazers organization, although there

1024
00:54:54,440 --> 00:54:57,880
Speaker 4: is a little sliver of it, Mike, because with the

1025
00:54:57,960 --> 00:55:01,359
Speaker 4: trade teams that we've been Canne you know, James Harden,

1026
00:55:01,480 --> 00:55:05,440
Speaker 4: same teams, Knicks, Clippers, there's seven or eight teams that

1027
00:55:05,480 --> 00:55:09,000
Speaker 4: are just always mentioned. No one's No one's saying I

1028
00:55:09,040 --> 00:55:12,799
Speaker 4: want to be traded to Portland. Yeah it's and it's

1029
00:55:12,840 --> 00:55:14,560
Speaker 4: not meant to be a knock of them. There's two

1030
00:55:14,680 --> 00:55:16,560
Speaker 4: thirds of the league. No one is saying that they

1031
00:55:16,600 --> 00:55:19,640
Speaker 4: want to be traded to those markets. Sure, Denver just won.

1032
00:55:19,719 --> 00:55:21,160
Speaker 4: No one's like, you know what, I want to team

1033
00:55:21,239 --> 00:55:23,879
Speaker 4: up with Jokich, Luka Dantcich could be the best player

1034
00:55:23,920 --> 00:55:26,920
Speaker 4: of the NBA over the next decade. I don't hear

1035
00:55:26,960 --> 00:55:29,120
Speaker 4: a lot of get me to Dallas, you know, like

1036
00:55:29,120 --> 00:55:32,080
Speaker 4: there's there's only six or seven teams that we throw

1037
00:55:32,239 --> 00:55:35,839
Speaker 4: around all the time. And so for Portland to ever

1038
00:55:35,880 --> 00:55:38,359
Speaker 4: try to, you know, to try to get someone who,

1039
00:55:38,400 --> 00:55:40,719
Speaker 4: by the way, would have to be above Lillard's capacity

1040
00:55:41,120 --> 00:55:43,360
Speaker 4: because they had CJ. McCollum there and he was a

1041
00:55:43,400 --> 00:55:45,640
Speaker 4: part of that team that made the Western Conference final.

1042
00:55:46,120 --> 00:55:49,319
Speaker 4: Just tells you what a daunting a daunting position it

1043
00:55:49,440 --> 00:55:53,040
Speaker 4: is to try to build that that winner in Portland

1044
00:55:53,080 --> 00:55:54,320
Speaker 4: with their their current makeup.

1045
00:55:54,440 --> 00:55:58,160
Speaker 2: I would say this the question I would have for

1046
00:55:58,280 --> 00:56:01,279
Speaker 2: San Antonio, and this would be the real kick in that. Like,

1047
00:56:02,080 --> 00:56:03,759
Speaker 2: it's one thing to lose a guy who's been the

1048
00:56:03,760 --> 00:56:06,800
Speaker 2: identity of your team, right, Daniel Lillard leaving is kicking

1049
00:56:06,800 --> 00:56:10,000
Speaker 2: the teeth number one. Anything that comes back from san

1050
00:56:10,000 --> 00:56:14,560
Speaker 2: Antonio just because the salaries matchup is kicking the teeth too,

1051
00:56:14,640 --> 00:56:17,400
Speaker 2: because there's nobody that can play on this team. Yeah,

1052
00:56:17,440 --> 00:56:21,399
Speaker 2: that's going to help your team. Yeah, Like literally, you've

1053
00:56:21,400 --> 00:56:24,760
Speaker 2: got Scoot Henderson there. Great, he slides up. He seems

1054
00:56:24,840 --> 00:56:27,759
Speaker 2: willing and ready to embrace the All right, if he leaves,

1055
00:56:27,800 --> 00:56:31,520
Speaker 2: I'm the guy, right, that's already his quote. What from

1056
00:56:31,520 --> 00:56:35,000
Speaker 2: that San Antonio team are you bringing in? That's gonna

1057
00:56:35,000 --> 00:56:38,360
Speaker 2: get you to where you're like, all right, we like

1058
00:56:38,440 --> 00:56:42,520
Speaker 2: at least with Miami, just to use them specifically, because

1059
00:56:42,520 --> 00:56:45,319
Speaker 2: that's the hottest rumor, and that's where the odds moved. Like,

1060
00:56:45,560 --> 00:56:48,600
Speaker 2: you may not love Duncan Robinson or Tyler Hero, but

1061
00:56:48,680 --> 00:56:52,239
Speaker 2: you've seen them make shots that mattered, you've seen them

1062
00:56:52,280 --> 00:56:55,200
Speaker 2: play important minutes in the game, and you've seen them

1063
00:56:55,280 --> 00:56:59,480
Speaker 2: have a particular set of skills to steal from Liam

1064
00:56:59,560 --> 00:57:03,319
Speaker 2: Neeson that could help your team and make it at

1065
00:57:03,440 --> 00:57:06,600
Speaker 2: least an entertaining, exciting product if they're healthy and ready

1066
00:57:06,600 --> 00:57:11,040
Speaker 2: to go. San Antonio tanked. San Antonio has a couple

1067
00:57:11,080 --> 00:57:13,160
Speaker 2: of guys that are like clue guys kind of thing,

1068
00:57:13,560 --> 00:57:17,760
Speaker 2: but they're not stars. They're guys that are gonna move

1069
00:57:17,840 --> 00:57:22,120
Speaker 2: cathtle for you just because they get paid commensurately and

1070
00:57:22,600 --> 00:57:25,320
Speaker 2: you know, just the NBA pay scale, so you match

1071
00:57:25,360 --> 00:57:27,840
Speaker 2: up salaries based on their idiotic rules.

1072
00:57:28,920 --> 00:57:31,479
Speaker 4: Wait helping you, I say, I agree with you, Mike,

1073
00:57:32,120 --> 00:57:33,880
Speaker 4: and then I'm gonna put a period at the end

1074
00:57:33,880 --> 00:57:37,680
Speaker 4: of my sentence. And then, in a completely separate, non

1075
00:57:37,760 --> 00:57:40,800
Speaker 4: related topic that has nothing to do with you, just said,

1076
00:57:41,600 --> 00:57:45,760
Speaker 4: I do think Malachi Branum first round pick in twenty

1077
00:57:45,800 --> 00:57:47,880
Speaker 4: twenty two from Ohio state. Of course, I watched a

1078
00:57:47,920 --> 00:57:50,280
Speaker 4: lot of them in college. I do think that he

1079
00:57:50,400 --> 00:57:53,200
Speaker 4: could have the ability to develop into a solid NBA player.

1080
00:57:53,240 --> 00:57:57,320
Speaker 4: Get nothing, nothing, Mike, connected to what you're saying, because

1081
00:57:57,360 --> 00:58:00,560
Speaker 4: you're absolutely right, that's just a separate it's.

1082
00:58:00,400 --> 00:58:03,840
Speaker 2: A developmental keep an eye on this guy. Yes, that's exactly,

1083
00:58:05,080 --> 00:58:08,040
Speaker 2: But that's exactly what would have to happen here is

1084
00:58:08,240 --> 00:58:11,800
Speaker 2: you would have to yes to say, Hey, this is

1085
00:58:11,840 --> 00:58:14,240
Speaker 2: a guy. He's a ten point a game guy for

1086
00:58:14,320 --> 00:58:16,920
Speaker 2: a really bad team that was trying to tank to

1087
00:58:17,040 --> 00:58:21,240
Speaker 2: be to get the number one overall pick. That's your

1088
00:58:21,280 --> 00:58:25,720
Speaker 2: new guy alongside sket Henderson. How do you feel. And

1089
00:58:25,800 --> 00:58:27,880
Speaker 2: here's a bunch of contracts that are going to expire

1090
00:58:27,960 --> 00:58:30,520
Speaker 2: before then because we had to make the salaries match.

1091
00:58:30,720 --> 00:58:31,479

00:58:51,040 --> 00:58:53,840
Speaker 2: what do you get in exchange for a player? The

1099
00:58:53,960 --> 00:58:56,720
Speaker 2: ilk of Damian Lillard. Coming up next, we turn our

1100
00:58:56,760 --> 00:59:00,000
Speaker 2: attention to the National Football League.

1101
00:59:00,160 --> 00:59:00,760
Speaker 3: We had our.

1102
00:59:00,760 --> 00:59:05,080
Speaker 2: Gambling decisions come down. I've got some very simple rules

1103
00:59:05,120 --> 00:59:08,560
Speaker 2: of the road as it flows, and it's something we

1104
00:59:08,560 --> 00:59:10,960
Speaker 2: should all take into our daily lives. We'll do that

1105
00:59:11,000 --> 00:59:16,440
Speaker 2: next year on Fox Welcome back in got really mellow.

1106
00:59:17,600 --> 00:59:22,360
Speaker 2: We went from legs and fired up to slow Sunday

1107
00:59:22,360 --> 00:59:27,000
Speaker 2: morning coffee. Maybe you're getting a little stretch in stretch

1108
00:59:27,520 --> 00:59:29,439
Speaker 2: something we all should have been told to do when

1109
00:59:29,440 --> 00:59:31,919
Speaker 2: we were younger. You have a certain age you got

1110
00:59:31,920 --> 00:59:36,360
Speaker 2: to practice. You went straight into practice. The stretch time

1111
00:59:36,480 --> 00:59:39,760
Speaker 2: and warm up time was about three minutes before it

1112
00:59:39,960 --> 00:59:43,480
Speaker 2: was pad on, pad let's get after it. So as

1113
00:59:43,520 --> 00:59:45,880
Speaker 2: an old man, I now have the flexibility of a rock.

1114
00:59:47,000 --> 00:59:49,440
Speaker 4: I've never been that flexible. Not that you guys need

1115
00:59:49,480 --> 00:59:52,520
Speaker 4: to know this stuff about me, but yeah. Never never

1116
00:59:52,960 --> 00:59:56,160
Speaker 4: sit in reach that you had at the test in

1117
00:59:56,240 --> 00:59:59,760
Speaker 4: high school. You sit down, sit your butt on the

1118
00:59:59,760 --> 01:00:03,360
Speaker 4: ground on legs extended, and you reach forward. They were

1119
01:00:03,440 --> 01:00:06,680
Speaker 4: telling me to all right, go and I was going like.

1120
01:00:06,720 --> 01:00:13,240
Speaker 3: I'm going, yes, got back.

1121
01:00:15,680 --> 01:00:18,680
Speaker 2: Private went to the Jesuit high school. So I guess

1122
01:00:19,640 --> 01:00:21,640
Speaker 2: I don't know why the rules would be different, but

1123
01:00:21,880 --> 01:00:23,480
Speaker 2: it seemed like they were able to put a knee

1124
01:00:23,520 --> 01:00:25,400
Speaker 2: in your back and say, ah, you look at you.

1125
01:00:25,400 --> 01:00:27,400
Speaker 2: Look you got so much more. And you're like, and

1126
01:00:27,440 --> 01:00:32,040
Speaker 2: now you're ripping something in my strem as you go, look,

1127
01:00:32,080 --> 01:00:34,480
Speaker 2: we're here in the tire rack dot Com studios, my garment.

1128
01:00:34,520 --> 01:00:37,480
Speaker 2: Dan Bayer with you NFL earlier this week, as we

1129
01:00:37,560 --> 01:00:43,280
Speaker 2: get ever closer to training camps opening. Yes it's now

1130
01:00:43,400 --> 01:00:47,480
Speaker 2: July for those that forgot to flip your calendars hoping

1131
01:00:47,680 --> 01:00:50,240
Speaker 2: you're having a great holiday weekend, but we had the

1132
01:00:50,240 --> 01:00:54,560
Speaker 2: suspensions come down, long awaited, long rumored, and no names

1133
01:00:54,600 --> 01:00:57,840
Speaker 2: that really move the needle. But it gets back into

1134
01:00:57,920 --> 01:01:02,840
Speaker 2: the conversation and the folks doing the finger wagging of see,

1135
01:01:02,880 --> 01:01:04,960
Speaker 2: this is what happens when you get in bed with

1136
01:01:05,080 --> 01:01:09,640
Speaker 2: gambling outfits and it's on the pages and you're advertising

1137
01:01:09,760 --> 01:01:14,080
Speaker 2: and these former players are part of the advertisements and

1138
01:01:14,160 --> 01:01:18,520
Speaker 2: promotions or whatever. It's a pretty simple, hard and fast rule,

1139
01:01:19,120 --> 01:01:21,240
Speaker 2: and you go through all sorts of training and things

1140
01:01:21,280 --> 01:01:24,520
Speaker 2: you should and shouldn't do. The don't bet on the

1141
01:01:24,640 --> 01:01:30,000
Speaker 2: NFL is simple. Takes two seconds to say, don't bet

1142
01:01:30,680 --> 01:01:34,040
Speaker 2: in the team facility on anything. Seems like a pretty

1143
01:01:34,080 --> 01:01:35,400
Speaker 2: easy rule to follow.

1144
01:01:35,640 --> 01:01:36,080
Speaker 3: I get it.

1145
01:01:36,120 --> 01:01:40,520
Speaker 2: You've got folks that are going to push boundaries, and

1146
01:01:40,600 --> 01:01:43,600
Speaker 2: you got folks that just like with your your kid, right,

1147
01:01:43,680 --> 01:01:45,040
Speaker 2: you may be going through as little it's like, you

1148
01:01:45,080 --> 01:01:47,480
Speaker 2: know what, this is really hot, but unfortunately the kid

1149
01:01:47,480 --> 01:01:51,240
Speaker 2: may have to burn himself to recognize that Mom and

1150
01:01:51,320 --> 01:01:54,240
Speaker 2: dad aren't saying it just for their their own gigs

1151
01:01:54,280 --> 01:01:57,600
Speaker 2: here right right, you may have to experience You don't

1152
01:01:57,640 --> 01:02:01,080
Speaker 2: want them to experience the pain, but until they feel

1153
01:02:01,240 --> 01:02:04,280
Speaker 2: the heat of the coil or the flame, maybe you

1154
01:02:04,320 --> 01:02:07,440
Speaker 2: don't feel it. Likewise, here with with the gaming rules,

1155
01:02:07,440 --> 01:02:09,320
Speaker 2: we had Calvin Ridley and now you add a couple

1156
01:02:09,360 --> 01:02:12,560
Speaker 2: of couple of players here the colts had to suspend

1157
01:02:12,560 --> 01:02:14,600
Speaker 2: a couple and then they release guys and all this

1158
01:02:14,640 --> 01:02:17,640
Speaker 2: other stuff. But you know, the the hard fast rule.

1159
01:02:17,760 --> 01:02:19,160
Speaker 2: I joked about it the other day. It's like we

1160
01:02:19,240 --> 01:02:21,920
Speaker 2: used to have smoking areas like this is your designated

1161
01:02:21,920 --> 01:02:25,440
Speaker 2: smoking area. You're far enough away from the foot traffic

1162
01:02:25,480 --> 01:02:28,240
Speaker 2: of the building and whatever is this Now at facilities,

1163
01:02:28,280 --> 01:02:30,960
Speaker 2: the Wi Fi extends here. You can place your bets

1164
01:02:30,960 --> 01:02:31,640
Speaker 2: from this pen.

1165
01:02:32,240 --> 01:02:37,040
Speaker 4: Well, what team facility doesn't have like some fence or

1166
01:02:37,120 --> 01:02:39,440
Speaker 4: you know, a gate that lets you in like that.

1167
01:02:39,640 --> 01:02:42,120
Speaker 2: Get here and then just go across that walkway, yes

1168
01:02:43,120 --> 01:02:45,480
Speaker 2: the spright go go to the picnic benches we've set

1169
01:02:45,560 --> 01:02:47,640
Speaker 2: up over here. That's the designated betting area.

1170
01:02:47,840 --> 01:02:50,480
Speaker 4: That's what you need to do. Simple, just go to

1171
01:02:50,520 --> 01:02:53,600
Speaker 4: the go to the bus stop that's right down the street.

1172
01:02:53,960 --> 01:02:56,680
Speaker 4: That little area. You can do it. It's interesting, Mike,

1173
01:02:56,760 --> 01:03:01,560
Speaker 4: I think that with the NFL's people feel that it's

1174
01:03:01,600 --> 01:03:05,120
Speaker 4: hypocritical for the NFL to have these deals with these

1175
01:03:05,520 --> 01:03:09,120
Speaker 4: you know, betting partners. If you will, and then say, hey,

1176
01:03:09,160 --> 01:03:12,840
Speaker 4: you can't bet on, can't bet on any NFL games,

1177
01:03:13,280 --> 01:03:16,480
Speaker 4: But I don't. I don't find it hypocritical. I find

1178
01:03:16,520 --> 01:03:20,360
Speaker 4: it not every state allows you to make bets. First

1179
01:03:20,400 --> 01:03:23,720
Speaker 4: of all, So there are certain there's certain teams that

1180
01:03:23,800 --> 01:03:28,080
Speaker 4: I guess are protected in a way because their states

1181
01:03:28,120 --> 01:03:30,240
Speaker 4: don't allow it. But the states that do allow it,

1182
01:03:30,240 --> 01:03:32,960
Speaker 4: and teams that are there could be open to this

1183
01:03:33,080 --> 01:03:35,840
Speaker 4: sort of thing. But to your point of yeah, it's

1184
01:03:35,920 --> 01:03:38,360
Speaker 4: pretty cut and dried. Just don't do it on the

1185
01:03:38,400 --> 01:03:42,400
Speaker 4: grounds and don't bet on the NFL. That should be

1186
01:03:42,520 --> 01:03:47,160
Speaker 4: enough to do it. What I find interesting is in

1187
01:03:47,480 --> 01:03:50,200
Speaker 4: the Isaiah Rodgers one is the interesting one, especially when

1188
01:03:50,240 --> 01:03:52,200
Speaker 4: we found out it was an over under on one

1189
01:03:52,240 --> 01:03:56,480
Speaker 4: hundred yard game. That's the That's the thing that stands out.

1190
01:03:56,480 --> 01:03:59,360
Speaker 4: And even Friday, Mike I was saying to myself Monte

1191
01:03:59,400 --> 01:04:01,320
Speaker 4: Millanios and I are sitting in for Doug Gottlieb, and

1192
01:04:02,480 --> 01:04:06,760
Speaker 4: I was like, well, if you're a Northwestern guy, you

1193
01:04:07,280 --> 01:04:09,520
Speaker 4: know what's going on in the program. You may know

1194
01:04:09,560 --> 01:04:12,520
Speaker 4: if a guy's got a bum knee or a bum ankle,

1195
01:04:12,640 --> 01:04:15,360
Speaker 4: and college you don't give that information out. They do

1196
01:04:15,440 --> 01:04:18,120
Speaker 4: not tell you about an injury report, but you're connected

1197
01:04:18,160 --> 01:04:20,520
Speaker 4: to the program, so you may be able to be like,

1198
01:04:20,560 --> 01:04:22,080
Speaker 4: all right, they're not gonna have this guy this week,

1199
01:04:22,120 --> 01:04:24,160
Speaker 4: so they're probably gonna lose. I'm gonna put this money

1200
01:04:24,160 --> 01:04:26,640
Speaker 4: on on the other team because I know this guy's

1201
01:04:26,720 --> 01:04:32,160
Speaker 4: not going to play. That isn't screwing with the integrity

1202
01:04:32,200 --> 01:04:35,920
Speaker 4: of Northwestern whoever they played. I feel that screws the

1203
01:04:35,920 --> 01:04:38,520
Speaker 4: bookie or whatever site that you're with it. You would

1204
01:04:38,520 --> 01:04:41,920
Speaker 4: have that insider information, and I felt that any NFL

1205
01:04:41,920 --> 01:04:45,120
Speaker 4: player probably has access to inside information from other teams,

1206
01:04:45,120 --> 01:04:47,560
Speaker 4: and that really the only person that's being hurt from

1207
01:04:47,560 --> 01:04:50,600
Speaker 4: it would be the person who's collecting that bet, because

1208
01:04:50,640 --> 01:04:54,080
Speaker 4: this person may have insider information. But then, you know,

1209
01:04:54,120 --> 01:04:55,880
Speaker 4: the more I thought about it, and you know, I

1210
01:04:55,960 --> 01:04:57,600
Speaker 4: moved off of it, and it's like, yeah, it is

1211
01:04:57,640 --> 01:05:01,400
Speaker 4: pretty simple. Like you can't even if a game's on

1212
01:05:01,480 --> 01:05:04,160
Speaker 4: a Monday night and then it's not your team doing it,

1213
01:05:04,280 --> 01:05:06,120
Speaker 4: or if you have a future's bet, Like there's so

1214
01:05:06,200 --> 01:05:09,880
Speaker 4: many tentacles that end up spawning from this whole thing

1215
01:05:09,960 --> 01:05:12,280
Speaker 4: that you kind of just need to have it as

1216
01:05:12,320 --> 01:05:15,040
Speaker 4: you laid out, as basic as it is, don't bet

1217
01:05:15,080 --> 01:05:19,360
Speaker 4: on the NFL. Don't bet within these walls or this perimeter,

1218
01:05:19,880 --> 01:05:22,120
Speaker 4: and if you're allowed to win the state, then do

1219
01:05:22,160 --> 01:05:24,400
Speaker 4: whatever you want. But for some reason, guys just have

1220
01:05:24,480 --> 01:05:25,680
Speaker 4: a difficult time following it.

1221
01:05:25,800 --> 01:05:28,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, and it's a small percentage. So that's

1222
01:05:28,080 --> 01:05:31,160
Speaker 2: the other thing that needs to be reminded to remind

1223
01:05:31,160 --> 01:05:32,959
Speaker 2: people of, right, because it looks like a big deal,

1224
01:05:32,960 --> 01:05:36,240
Speaker 2: and it got covered outside of the sports world and

1225
01:05:36,240 --> 01:05:38,080
Speaker 2: even inside the sports world, and like, oh, this is

1226
01:05:38,080 --> 01:05:41,080
Speaker 2: the worst thing in the World's probably more people gambling,

1227
01:05:41,160 --> 01:05:44,480
Speaker 2: just like we would assume back in the day the

1228
01:05:44,920 --> 01:05:48,760
Speaker 2: numbers that they would use related to marijuana use or

1229
01:05:48,800 --> 01:05:52,800
Speaker 2: ped use or whatever probably were higher than anybody was estimating.

1230
01:05:53,400 --> 01:05:57,280
Speaker 2: But it's all guestimates. Likewise, when we get into who's

1231
01:05:57,320 --> 01:05:59,880
Speaker 2: getting in trouble, we have those big stories like the

1232
01:06:00,040 --> 01:06:02,040
Speaker 2: bad Look look at all these guys in the NFL.

1233
01:06:02,040 --> 01:06:05,760
Speaker 2: I think it's like five to ten guys out of

1234
01:06:05,800 --> 01:06:11,040
Speaker 2: thousands that have churned through the the NFL. Right, most

1235
01:06:11,040 --> 01:06:13,680
Speaker 2: of the guys are just going about their lives doing

1236
01:06:13,720 --> 01:06:16,080
Speaker 2: their things we do, and we maybe they're doing stuff

1237
01:06:16,120 --> 01:06:18,200
Speaker 2: we don't know about, but whatever. But in terms of

1238
01:06:18,600 --> 01:06:23,320
Speaker 2: the true quote bad actors, where the headlines are everywhere

1239
01:06:23,560 --> 01:06:27,880
Speaker 2: they're few. Likewise, here we now have a small sample

1240
01:06:27,960 --> 01:06:30,680
Speaker 2: size and maybe there's more that come out in the wash.

1241
01:06:31,200 --> 01:06:35,440
Speaker 2: But the harder the more you work to educate and

1242
01:06:36,360 --> 01:06:39,320
Speaker 2: show that there are significant punishments, because remember, a lot

1243
01:06:39,400 --> 01:06:41,280
Speaker 2: of the guys are like we talk about the three

1244
01:06:41,360 --> 01:06:44,160
Speaker 2: year average in the NFL in terms of career, there's

1245
01:06:44,200 --> 01:06:45,520
Speaker 2: a lot of guys that are in for a cup

1246
01:06:45,520 --> 01:06:48,640
Speaker 2: of coffee and gone. And that's that's where you're you're

1247
01:06:48,680 --> 01:06:49,640
Speaker 2: looking at that table.

1248
01:06:49,720 --> 01:06:53,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, onto that, And I want to ask you a question.

1249
01:06:54,320 --> 01:06:56,160
Speaker 2: Because I have to go back to the Northwestern Point

1250
01:06:56,200 --> 01:06:58,000
Speaker 2: shaving scandal of many years ago.

1251
01:06:58,040 --> 01:07:01,480
Speaker 4: If you want sure the do you think that the

1252
01:07:01,600 --> 01:07:07,520
Speaker 4: slippery slope is inevitable? Where yeah, it's only a few guys,

1253
01:07:07,560 --> 01:07:11,959
Speaker 4: but there's you know, Isaiah Rodgers making a thousand dollars bet.

1254
01:07:12,800 --> 01:07:16,560
Speaker 4: Do you feel that at some point if the NFL

1255
01:07:16,680 --> 01:07:19,439
Speaker 4: doesn't act, that there will be say like a six

1256
01:07:19,520 --> 01:07:24,520
Speaker 4: figure wager that a player will make significant, you know,

1257
01:07:24,800 --> 01:07:29,880
Speaker 4: enough to affect their play in a game. Do you

1258
01:07:29,880 --> 01:07:33,280
Speaker 4: think that that slippery slope is inevitable or do you

1259
01:07:33,320 --> 01:07:34,880
Speaker 4: think that the NFL can avoid it.

1260
01:07:35,080 --> 01:07:36,200
Speaker 3: I think they can avoid that.

1261
01:07:36,920 --> 01:07:41,680
Speaker 2: I mean, there's certainly the individuals and tendencies and yeah,

1262
01:07:41,800 --> 01:07:45,480
Speaker 2: that's hurt and not playing and whatever, like the Galvin

1263
01:07:45,520 --> 01:07:49,240
Speaker 2: Ridley thing, to where suddenly you may have just a

1264
01:07:49,640 --> 01:07:52,440
Speaker 2: large number that gets thrown out, kind of like Charles

1265
01:07:52,480 --> 01:07:54,200
Speaker 2: Barkley used to talk about the amount of money he

1266
01:07:54,240 --> 01:07:57,320
Speaker 2: would bet at a blackjack table or whatever, to where

1267
01:07:57,320 --> 01:07:59,880
Speaker 2: maybe that's the only way it's interesting. It's got a

1268
01:08:00,080 --> 01:08:00,760
Speaker 2: hurt a little bit.

1269
01:08:01,240 --> 01:08:04,040
Speaker 4: I I and Mike, I don't have an answer for you.

1270
01:08:04,160 --> 01:08:06,000
Speaker 4: And the reason I don't have an answer is then

1271
01:08:06,040 --> 01:08:08,240
Speaker 4: to what you said, like when you mentioned Calvin Ridley.

1272
01:08:08,680 --> 01:08:12,360
Speaker 4: The thing that I think is is troubling with the

1273
01:08:12,400 --> 01:08:15,760
Speaker 4: Calvin Ridley thing was when he was suspended. He was

1274
01:08:15,800 --> 01:08:17,639
Speaker 4: not playing when he was a member of the NFL

1275
01:08:17,720 --> 01:08:20,920
Speaker 4: because when he placed those bets and he was suspended

1276
01:08:20,960 --> 01:08:25,880
Speaker 4: for an entire season, and in fact, he was indefinitely suspended,

1277
01:08:26,760 --> 01:08:32,000
Speaker 4: but was immediately then reinstated by Roger Goodell. During his suspension,

1278
01:08:32,080 --> 01:08:34,720
Speaker 4: was traded to Jacksonville. And now we look at the

1279
01:08:34,800 --> 01:08:38,519
Speaker 4: Jaguars and we say, man, Calvin Ridley added to that team.

1280
01:08:38,600 --> 01:08:43,040
Speaker 4: Look out, AFC, here's another we've moved past it. And

1281
01:08:43,080 --> 01:08:46,920
Speaker 4: that's where like yeah, for the for the players who

1282
01:08:46,920 --> 01:08:49,400
Speaker 4: had played for the Lions that got their suspension, and

1283
01:08:49,439 --> 01:08:53,200
Speaker 4: you know the Nicholas Petit Frere who got his six

1284
01:08:53,280 --> 01:08:56,439
Speaker 4: game ban this week. Maybe it's a deterrent for them.

1285
01:08:57,240 --> 01:09:00,960
Speaker 4: I just don't know if the one year is a

1286
01:09:01,479 --> 01:09:03,720
Speaker 4: if you're not good enough, is a banishment from the

1287
01:09:03,760 --> 01:09:07,200
Speaker 4: game where they're like that is a deterrent enough. But

1288
01:09:08,680 --> 01:09:11,680
Speaker 4: I actually think that the NFL probably needed to be

1289
01:09:11,760 --> 01:09:15,120
Speaker 4: harsher if they could, not for the ones who made

1290
01:09:15,120 --> 01:09:17,200
Speaker 4: the bets on the grounds, but the ones who broke

1291
01:09:17,240 --> 01:09:21,160
Speaker 4: the rules for actually betting on NFL action, because I

1292
01:09:21,240 --> 01:09:23,600
Speaker 4: just think that I think that's where you have to

1293
01:09:23,640 --> 01:09:26,240
Speaker 4: lay down the law and then you avoid that slippery

1294
01:09:26,280 --> 01:09:28,360
Speaker 4: slope that we think could be on the horizon.

1295
01:09:28,439 --> 01:09:30,599
Speaker 2: Yeah, because I look at you know, it goes back

1296
01:09:30,600 --> 01:09:32,840
Speaker 2: to the old Pete Rose example, like why I never

1297
01:09:32,840 --> 01:09:34,800
Speaker 2: bet against my team. It's like, well, were there days

1298
01:09:34,800 --> 01:09:37,880
Speaker 2: you didn't bet because that's a bet against your team?

1299
01:09:37,960 --> 01:09:38,160
Speaker 4: Yes?

1300
01:09:38,760 --> 01:09:38,920
Speaker 1: Right?

1301
01:09:39,080 --> 01:09:41,439
Speaker 2: Likewise, here, fifty bucks here, fifty bucks there, it's like

1302
01:09:41,479 --> 01:09:45,479
Speaker 2: playing blackjack, fifty fifty to fifty. There's one thousand dollars bet.

1303
01:09:46,280 --> 01:09:51,600
Speaker 2: They're probably counting cards right. Likewise, here he decided to

1304
01:09:51,640 --> 01:09:55,599
Speaker 2: push in because of the ground game. This is conduce

1305
01:09:55,680 --> 01:09:57,959
Speaker 2: of what you're planning, what you've got in the playbook,

1306
01:09:58,000 --> 01:10:01,760
Speaker 2: everything else. It's also Jonathan, but it's it's all of

1307
01:10:01,800 --> 01:10:05,479
Speaker 2: that that comes into play that that pushes it. And

1308
01:10:05,520 --> 01:10:08,360
Speaker 2: for the NFL, they're looking to get revenue, and I

1309
01:10:08,360 --> 01:10:11,280
Speaker 2: think one of the things also, we've we've got to

1310
01:10:11,400 --> 01:10:13,960
Speaker 2: do all the let's beat up the players to make

1311
01:10:14,000 --> 01:10:18,360
Speaker 2: sure they understand how grave this is to people and

1312
01:10:18,479 --> 01:10:21,000
Speaker 2: you know, the sanctity and integrity the game. The other

1313
01:10:21,040 --> 01:10:24,680
Speaker 2: part is every dollar that comes in from fan duel DraftKings,

1314
01:10:26,280 --> 01:10:29,720
Speaker 2: when name your partner, fifty percent of it's going to

1315
01:10:29,760 --> 01:10:33,240
Speaker 2: the players. And they need to remember that that. As

1316
01:10:33,280 --> 01:10:35,639
Speaker 2: much as people say this is a terrible thing, it's

1317
01:10:35,680 --> 01:10:39,479
Speaker 2: like no, no, no, it's feeding the beast. They're getting paid

1318
01:10:39,560 --> 01:10:42,880
Speaker 2: on this. So to say well we shouldn't, you know

1319
01:10:42,920 --> 01:10:46,439
Speaker 2: how hypocritical is like no, no, no, no, they're they're getting

1320
01:10:46,439 --> 01:10:49,240
Speaker 2: paid and they should just take it as an endorsement

1321
01:10:49,280 --> 01:10:50,360
Speaker 2: dollar and just move on.

1322
01:10:50,640 --> 01:10:50,840
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1323
01:10:50,880 --> 01:10:53,479
Speaker 4: I don't think anybody's like what we send. We send

1324
01:10:53,479 --> 01:10:55,880
Speaker 4: a the league's had to deal with fandle. All Right,

1325
01:10:55,880 --> 01:10:59,120
Speaker 4: I'm gonna start placing bets. There's not that correlation there.

1326
01:11:00,120 --> 01:11:02,920
Speaker 4: They gave me one hundred dollars credit. Let's go guess

1327
01:11:02,920 --> 01:11:06,040
Speaker 4: what gambling opened up in our state. We can do it. Hey,

1328
01:11:06,120 --> 01:11:08,360
Speaker 4: guess what. There are probably bets that are made that

1329
01:11:09,160 --> 01:11:13,040
Speaker 4: from guys that aren't where isn't legal because they have

1330
01:11:13,160 --> 01:11:15,320
Speaker 4: their own guys. The NFL just hasn't found out.

1331
01:11:15,439 --> 01:11:17,120
Speaker 2: Well, that's just it, right. It's like where you can

1332
01:11:17,200 --> 01:11:18,280
Speaker 2: have the digital stamp.

1333
01:11:18,320 --> 01:11:18,880
Speaker 3: It's easy.

1334
01:11:19,520 --> 01:11:21,519
Speaker 2: There's always going to be a percentage of guys going

1335
01:11:21,520 --> 01:11:25,240
Speaker 2: back to Alex Karis, Paul Horning, so many others where

1336
01:11:25,800 --> 01:11:27,840
Speaker 2: you go back the old school way. The guy with

1337
01:11:27,880 --> 01:11:30,880
Speaker 2: the parlay sheets at the back of the bar. Yes,

1338
01:11:30,960 --> 01:11:34,600

1339
01:11:34,680 --> 01:11:35,880
Speaker 2: ran book back in the day.

1340
01:11:35,920 --> 01:11:36,360

Speaker 2: sporting universe.

1347
01:11:51,880 --> 01:11:55,200
Speaker 5: Fellas, we've done it. We've broken through our rate limit

1348
01:11:55,280 --> 01:11:59,519
Speaker 5: because we actually have fresh NBA news this morning, then

1349
01:11:59,560 --> 01:12:02,920
Speaker 5: let's go hosted through the rate limit. The Athletic reporting

1350
01:12:02,960 --> 01:12:06,479
Speaker 5: a short time ago. Jordan Clarkson is finalizing a three year,

1351
01:12:06,760 --> 01:12:11,240
Speaker 5: fifty five million dollar extension with the Utah Jazz Sacramento

1352
01:12:11,360 --> 01:12:14,040
Speaker 5: King Center. Demonte Sabonis agreed to a five year, two

1353
01:12:14,160 --> 01:12:17,640
Speaker 5: hundred and seventeen million dollar extension. Dylan Brooks, formerly of

1354
01:12:17,680 --> 01:12:20,800
Speaker 5: the Grizzlies, gets a four year eighty million dollar deal

1355
01:12:20,840 --> 01:12:24,479
Speaker 5: with the Houston Rockets. Dante de Vincenzo agreed to a

1356
01:12:24,520 --> 01:12:27,799
Speaker 5: four year, fifty million dollar contract with the New York Knicks.

1357
01:12:27,960 --> 01:12:30,840
Speaker 5: De Angelo Russell returning to the Los Angeles Lakers for

1358
01:12:30,920 --> 01:12:34,799
Speaker 5: two years and thirty seven million. Golf in the final

1359
01:12:34,920 --> 01:12:39,439
Speaker 5: round of the Rocket Mortgage Classic as we speak, Ricky

1360
01:12:39,560 --> 01:12:42,479
Speaker 5: Faller as a two shot lead at twenty two under

1361
01:12:42,520 --> 01:12:45,879
Speaker 5: par overall. Today he is two under through six, including

1362
01:12:45,920 --> 01:12:49,800
Speaker 5: making a forty six foot putt for birdie on the

1363
01:12:49,840 --> 01:12:54,200
Speaker 5: fifth hole. Adam Hadwin is in second place, two shots

1364
01:12:54,240 --> 01:12:57,320
Speaker 5: back at twenty under par overall. If you're wondering who

1365
01:12:57,360 --> 01:13:02,160
Speaker 5: he is, he is a Canadian from moose Jaw, Saskatchewan,

1366
01:13:02,720 --> 01:13:06,080
Speaker 5: which I learned a short time ago. Bills itself as

1367
01:13:06,640 --> 01:13:11,400
Speaker 5: little Chicago. And the reason for that is during Prohibition,

1368
01:13:11,800 --> 01:13:15,880
Speaker 5: Moose Jaw was used as a hub to smuggle rum

1369
01:13:16,439 --> 01:13:20,320
Speaker 5: into Chicago. I thought they called themselves that because you

1370
01:13:20,360 --> 01:13:23,920
Speaker 5: know of a cultural reasons, you know, rum.

1371
01:13:24,600 --> 01:13:26,680
Speaker 3: It's all because of rum and Prohibition.

1372
01:13:26,840 --> 01:13:29,280
Speaker 4: I need to add two things. Adam Hadwin is definitely

1373
01:13:29,360 --> 01:13:31,439
Speaker 4: a solid player. Think he's played on a few President's

1374
01:13:31,439 --> 01:13:34,840
Speaker 4: Cup teams for the Internationals. He was also the one

1375
01:13:34,840 --> 01:13:37,240
Speaker 4: that was tackled a few weeks ago at the Canadian Open.

1376
01:13:37,439 --> 01:13:40,880
Speaker 4: Oh yes, so he's doing alright. And there is a

1377
01:13:40,920 --> 01:13:45,800
Speaker 4: little Chicago, Wisconsin as well near my hometown. It's just

1378
01:13:45,880 --> 01:13:48,880
Speaker 4: basically an intersection. It's got a little Chicago and there's

1379
01:13:48,880 --> 01:13:51,920
Speaker 4: a car dealership in. Yeah, a cheese factory, but I

1380

01:13:58,600 --> 01:14:01,479
Speaker 5: Fantastic as opposed to cheese cake factory.

1384
01:14:02,320 --> 01:14:06,000

1505
01:20:46,120 --> 01:20:49,719
Speaker 4: So Ethan, our original UH producer, was ill this morning,

1506
01:20:49,760 --> 01:20:51,680
Speaker 4: and so Ryan has come in in a in a

1507
01:20:51,760 --> 01:20:56,480
Speaker 4: pinch to take hustled in and I just completely realized

1508
01:20:56,640 --> 01:21:01,599
Speaker 4: I I treated him like absolute dirt about three minutes ago,

1509
01:21:01,920 --> 01:21:04,760
Speaker 4: did you Well, I didn't mean too. I didn't mean to.

1510
01:21:05,320 --> 01:21:08,679
Speaker 4: It's it's some It's happens when you just say stuff.

1511
01:21:09,400 --> 01:21:14,160
Speaker 4: Ryan was called up, probably woken from his sleep, to say, hey,

1512
01:21:14,200 --> 01:21:17,240
Speaker 4: you got to come in here on a shift that

1513
01:21:17,320 --> 01:21:20,320
Speaker 4: he doesn't normally work anyway, because he's filling in for

1514
01:21:20,400 --> 01:21:23,920
Speaker 4: somebody else today. And I go in, I go, yeah,

1515
01:21:23,960 --> 01:21:25,720
Speaker 4: we could have used you fifteen minutes ago when we

1516
01:21:25,760 --> 01:21:29,519
Speaker 4: did the feud like like that. I think he took

1517
01:21:29,560 --> 01:21:33,960
Speaker 4: it in good spirits. Ryan, I realized. I apologize, Ryan Berchingo.

1518
01:21:34,040 --> 01:21:37,240
Speaker 4: That is not meant to how it how it came off.

1520
01:21:40,680 --> 01:21:42,120
Speaker 4: we appreciate your presence.

1521
01:21:42,479 --> 01:21:45,200
Speaker 5: In Dan's defense, it was because Ryan knew that Central

1522
01:21:45,200 --> 01:21:46,479
Speaker 5: Florida was in the Big twelve.

1523
01:21:47,560 --> 01:21:50,200
Speaker 2: Well, I think Ryan, I mean not to speak for you.

1524
01:21:50,240 --> 01:21:52,200
Speaker 2: I mean there was a little consternation on your part,

1525
01:21:52,240 --> 01:21:53,840
Speaker 2: and that you were kind of hoping it was at

1526
01:21:53,880 --> 01:21:56,360
Speaker 2: eight forty five. Yes, so you've got forty five minutes

1527
01:21:56,400 --> 01:21:58,200
Speaker 2: to build another feud so Ryan can play.

1528
01:21:58,320 --> 01:22:01,639
Speaker 6: That's exactly begin like, oh, it's at eight forty five.

1529
01:22:01,680 --> 01:22:03,080
Speaker 6: I'll be a part of the feud. That'll be a

1530

01:22:07,080 --> 01:22:10,759
Speaker 4: Eight forty five Mountain the official time zone of Fox Sports.

1534
01:22:11,000 --> 01:22:14,200
Speaker 2: That is nicely done. See there's a callback. Gotta listen

1535
01:22:14,200 --> 01:22:16,120
Speaker 2: to the whole show or stick around for a couple

1536
01:22:16,160 --> 01:22:18,840
Speaker 2: of years wherever you are, however, you go ahead, Dan.

1537
01:22:18,800 --> 01:22:22,639
Speaker 4: No, we used to do so. Mike and I gotten together.

1538
01:22:23,000 --> 01:22:25,120
Speaker 4: Mike has been in this spot for what fifteen years?

1539
01:22:25,120 --> 01:22:27,800
Speaker 4: A long time, Yes, a long time. And Mike and

1540
01:22:27,840 --> 01:22:30,439
Speaker 4: I we're together for a while. Then we do the

1541
01:22:30,439 --> 01:22:34,719
Speaker 4: Fantasy show. Prior to the NFL Games, the Mountain time

1542
01:22:34,800 --> 01:22:36,559
Speaker 4: zone was our show of record.

1543
01:22:36,920 --> 01:22:37,120
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1544
01:22:37,360 --> 01:22:41,160
Speaker 4: What else did we had like a theme in this show?

1545
01:22:41,880 --> 01:22:44,080
Speaker 4: Where was it? Was it like our debate of the day,

1546
01:22:44,400 --> 01:22:45,160
Speaker 4: Was that what we wanted?

1547
01:22:45,280 --> 01:22:47,880
Speaker 3: We had those? Yeah, because I actually.

1548
01:22:47,720 --> 01:22:50,720
Speaker 4: Heard November rain the other day and I remember one

1549
01:22:50,760 --> 01:22:54,879
Speaker 4: of our debates was was the first part of November

1550
01:22:55,000 --> 01:22:58,760
Speaker 4: rain better or is it the ending that's better, the

1551
01:22:59,200 --> 01:23:01,720
Speaker 4: you know, duneon thing that you need zumbady or did

1552
01:23:01,760 --> 01:23:04,640
Speaker 4: you get that yes, piano or do you appreciate that

1553
01:23:04,840 --> 01:23:07,880
Speaker 4: like the first part about it? And then obviously hot

1554
01:23:07,880 --> 01:23:10,720
Speaker 4: takes and Sausage was of what we did.

1555
01:23:10,800 --> 01:23:15,040
Speaker 2: We should bring that back? He should, We'll see if

1556
01:23:15,080 --> 01:23:16,000

Speaker 4: Producer to provide it for us and our hot Our

1558
01:23:19,000 --> 01:23:21,760
Speaker 4: hot takes and sausage would have been left on the

1559
01:23:21,800 --> 01:23:26,600
Speaker 4: griddle last hour, but they wouldn't have now because Ryan Berschinger.

1560
01:23:26,160 --> 01:23:29,120
Speaker 2: Is here here, I come to save the day. As

1561

Speaker 2: recommended installers tyrac dot com. The way tire buying should be.

1565
01:23:44,800 --> 01:23:50,719
Speaker 2: So the NBA free agency world, the trades, the rumor

1566
01:23:50,760 --> 01:23:56,639
Speaker 2: conjecture speculation has been a fun exercise. The last few days.

1567
01:23:56,880 --> 01:24:02,240
Speaker 2: We've watched some mega contracts be extended, players signing back

1568
01:24:02,280 --> 01:24:06,559
Speaker 2: with the teams from whence they came as if, well,

1569
01:24:07,000 --> 01:24:09,240
Speaker 2: what were you gonna find in the open marketplace? One

1570
01:24:09,240 --> 01:24:12,240
Speaker 2: guy I think of very specifically, Kyrie Irving going back

1571
01:24:12,320 --> 01:24:14,200
Speaker 2: because We're gonna stick with the veterans here, because I'm

1572
01:24:14,200 --> 01:24:16,080
Speaker 2: an old man, so I'm gonna stick with the guys

1573
01:24:16,080 --> 01:24:20,960
Speaker 2: that are still big names and climbing and scratching and

1574
01:24:21,040 --> 01:24:24,280
Speaker 2: clawing their way for that next contract. Kyrie Irving goes

1575
01:24:24,320 --> 01:24:27,400
Speaker 2: back to Dallas and everybody bemoans. It's like, well, that

1576
01:24:27,520 --> 01:24:31,640
Speaker 2: seems like what was obvious. Does it make them a

1577
01:24:32,080 --> 01:24:33,320
Speaker 2: much better team?

1578
01:24:33,400 --> 01:24:34,720
Speaker 3: Maybe? Maybe not?

1579
01:24:35,000 --> 01:24:38,439
Speaker 2: With a full off season. Is Luca gonna be fully

1580
01:24:38,479 --> 01:24:41,880
Speaker 2: in shape and committed to being the guy that he

1581
01:24:41,920 --> 01:24:46,280
Speaker 2: could be? Is there something with Luca himself? Something Smith

1582
01:24:46,320 --> 01:24:48,479
Speaker 2: that I talked about the other day, just going is

1583
01:24:48,520 --> 01:24:50,680
Speaker 2: part of it that guys don't actually want to go

1584
01:24:50,760 --> 01:24:56,440
Speaker 2: play with Luca right as much as look, you've got advantages,

1585
01:24:56,520 --> 01:24:59,559
Speaker 2: right you go to the Mavericks. Cubans kind of an

1586
01:24:59,560 --> 01:25:03,320
Speaker 2: odd guy, but he's shown that he'll commit resources to

1587
01:25:03,400 --> 01:25:06,360
Speaker 2: the squad, both facilities wise, like some of the early

1588
01:25:06,400 --> 01:25:09,360
Speaker 2: acts that he did, and he's had his transgressions, he's

1589
01:25:09,360 --> 01:25:12,960
Speaker 2: got some issues in the offices and what have you.

1590
01:25:13,000 --> 01:25:15,360
Speaker 2: But when it comes to putting money into the team

1591
01:25:15,400 --> 01:25:19,840
Speaker 2: and trying to produce something, he's done so it's always

1592
01:25:19,840 --> 01:25:22,320
Speaker 2: the you have the tax advantages that we speak of

1593
01:25:22,479 --> 01:25:25,840
Speaker 2: so often when we're talking about two hundred million dollar contracts,

1594
01:25:26,240 --> 01:25:29,120
Speaker 2: significant amount of savings to go play in the state

1595
01:25:29,160 --> 01:25:32,280
Speaker 2: of Texas. And clearly the guys in Houston are getting

1596
01:25:32,280 --> 01:25:35,240
Speaker 2: people to take their money, as Fred van Vliet shows up,

1597
01:25:35,400 --> 01:25:38,360
Speaker 2: But Kyrie going back there to get the contract that

1598
01:25:38,400 --> 01:25:40,519
Speaker 2: he didn't seem like there was another place that was

1599
01:25:40,560 --> 01:25:43,759
Speaker 2: going to go three years, one hundred plus million dollars

1600
01:25:44,000 --> 01:25:46,320
Speaker 2: for what he is at this stage, not to mention

1601
01:25:46,479 --> 01:25:48,240
Speaker 2: the job hopping that he's done.

1602
01:25:48,320 --> 01:25:52,040
Speaker 4: I think that the Dallas Mavericks had no choice but

1603
01:25:52,200 --> 01:25:54,960
Speaker 4: to give Kyrie Irving the contract that they gave him.

1604
01:25:55,200 --> 01:25:58,960
Speaker 4: And it's two reasons. Number one again you make a trade,

1605
01:25:59,200 --> 01:26:02,639
Speaker 4: and I commend them for doing so. To your point,

1606
01:26:02,840 --> 01:26:06,120
Speaker 4: up to that point, for some reason, wasn't like free

1607
01:26:06,160 --> 01:26:10,080
Speaker 4: agents were knocking down Dallas's door and wanting to go there,

1608
01:26:10,120 --> 01:26:13,760
Speaker 4: which is surprising because on Shark Tank, everybody wants to

1609
01:26:13,760 --> 01:26:16,200
Speaker 4: do a deal with Mark Cuban. You could have you

1610
01:26:16,240 --> 01:26:18,759
Speaker 4: could have four of the Sharks. You could have mister Wonderful,

1611
01:26:18,800 --> 01:26:21,559
Speaker 4: you could have Lori, you could have Robert Hirschevek you

1612
01:26:21,600 --> 01:26:24,519
Speaker 4: could have Damon all give the same exact deal as

1613
01:26:24,560 --> 01:26:27,160
Speaker 4: Mark Cuban and they're like, I'm gonna go with Mark.

1614
01:26:27,520 --> 01:26:29,720
Speaker 4: You know that, Like for some reason, everybody wants to

1615
01:26:29,720 --> 01:26:31,559
Speaker 4: do a deal with Mark Cuban when it comes to

1616
01:26:31,600 --> 01:26:33,840
Speaker 4: Shark Tank, but when it comes to the NBA, not

1617
01:26:33,920 --> 01:26:37,000
Speaker 4: everybody wants to go to the Mavericks. But you invested,

1618
01:26:37,240 --> 01:26:39,360
Speaker 4: you made the trade, you brought him in, you tried

1619
01:26:39,360 --> 01:26:43,120
Speaker 4: to change it up correct deal. I think that that's

1620
01:26:43,160 --> 01:26:44,840
Speaker 4: one of the reasons why you had to see it through.

1621
01:26:45,400 --> 01:26:48,599
Speaker 4: The Other part about this, and I've heard Seene clips

1622
01:26:48,640 --> 01:26:52,320
Speaker 4: and people criticize, and I know Boston fans are mocking

1623
01:26:52,360 --> 01:26:57,200
Speaker 4: the Mavericks and Kyrie is kind of chirped back. But

1624
01:26:57,360 --> 01:27:00,639
Speaker 4: you had to give him that deal, like it or not, Mike,

1625
01:27:01,680 --> 01:27:06,760
Speaker 4: because you have to make him feel wanted. You have

1626
01:27:06,840 --> 01:27:09,519
Speaker 4: to make him feel you have to do everything that

1627
01:27:09,560 --> 01:27:12,360
Speaker 4: you can to make the situation work for him. Now,

1628
01:27:12,400 --> 01:27:14,800
Speaker 4: you could say to yourself, well, just don't give him

1629
01:27:14,800 --> 01:27:17,360
Speaker 4: a deal at all. I just don't think that that

1630
01:27:17,520 --> 01:27:19,760
Speaker 4: was part of the plan when you traded for him.

1631
01:27:19,800 --> 01:27:22,479
Speaker 4: So like they're pot committed in a sense, but are

1632
01:27:22,520 --> 01:27:24,960
Speaker 4: you gonna lowball him knowing that the rest of the

1633
01:27:25,040 --> 01:27:27,120
Speaker 4: league isn't gonna pay him. So now what do you do?

1634
01:27:27,280 --> 01:27:30,800
Speaker 4: You have a disgruntled Kyrie Irving joining your team that

1635
01:27:30,840 --> 01:27:33,920
Speaker 4: you're now paying, you know, thirty some million dollars. I

1636
01:27:33,960 --> 01:27:36,280
Speaker 4: know it's not the forty three that you would be paying.

1637
01:27:36,520 --> 01:27:39,360
Speaker 4: You almost had to pay him like it really was.

1638
01:27:39,439 --> 01:27:42,559
Speaker 4: And it's funny because I think that was the sentiment

1639
01:27:43,200 --> 01:27:47,559
Speaker 4: throughout the whole offseason so far, because all we were

1640
01:27:47,600 --> 01:27:52,519
Speaker 4: talking about was Damian Lillard and maybe on what James

1641
01:27:52,600 --> 01:27:55,280
Speaker 4: Harden would do, but nobody was like, what's gonna happen

1642
01:27:55,320 --> 01:27:58,439
Speaker 4: with Kyrie? And this seemed to be the likely outcome,

1643
01:27:58,479 --> 01:28:01,439
Speaker 4: And even though they were bidding against them, I don't

1644
01:28:01,439 --> 01:28:04,519
Speaker 4: think Dallas could afford to give Kyrie Irving a cheap contract.

1645
01:28:04,640 --> 01:28:07,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think somebody it goes to. And we were

1646
01:28:07,160 --> 01:28:09,680
Speaker 2: talking all veterans, Right, what was Chris Paul going to

1647
01:28:09,760 --> 01:28:12,479
Speaker 2: be if he had been bought out? Well, instead he

1648
01:28:12,479 --> 01:28:15,360
Speaker 2: gets traded to Golden State, Right, that was a big wrinkle.

1649
01:28:15,479 --> 01:28:18,280
Speaker 2: I don't think anybody saw it coming, and those that

1650
01:28:18,360 --> 01:28:21,760
Speaker 2: claim they did, I don't remember seeing it reported anywhere, but.

1651
01:28:21,960 --> 01:28:24,639
Speaker 4: Especially with Mike Dunleavy, you know, saying what he said

1652
01:28:24,640 --> 01:28:26,120
Speaker 4: earlier that week.

1653
01:28:26,120 --> 01:28:29,120
Speaker 2: So excitable about Jordan Poole, and then by the way

1654
01:28:29,120 --> 01:28:32,080
Speaker 2: you're gone, and then through the back channels, like there

1655
01:28:32,080 --> 01:28:34,799
Speaker 2: were a lot of inconsistencies in his game. We really

1656
01:28:35,760 --> 01:28:39,040
Speaker 2: spotlighted this year's like you had him for all those years,

1657
01:28:39,560 --> 01:28:42,559
Speaker 2: you scouted him for all those years, and you still

1658
01:28:42,600 --> 01:28:45,080
Speaker 2: gave him the bag. And now on his way out

1659
01:28:45,080 --> 01:28:46,680
Speaker 2: the door, it's like, yeah, all these things that were

1660
01:28:46,720 --> 01:28:48,960
Speaker 2: just problems, like why'd you give him the giant bag

1661
01:28:49,400 --> 01:28:52,439
Speaker 2: that ham strung, in forced and necessinate And maybe Chris

1662
01:28:52,479 --> 01:28:55,479
Speaker 2: Paul is the answer. They need him and Draymond Green

1663
01:28:55,560 --> 01:28:58,000
Speaker 2: coming back, whatever the case may be. We know the

1664
01:28:58,040 --> 01:29:01,600
Speaker 2: Western Conference and that is assumes everything goes smoothly for

1665
01:29:01,680 --> 01:29:04,680
Speaker 2: Denver again they lose Brown, but the rest of the

1666
01:29:04,720 --> 01:29:07,439
Speaker 2: West trying to chase. We talked about the Lakers earlier.

1667
01:29:07,479 --> 01:29:10,519
Speaker 2: We'll talk about the Grizzlies and some of the veteran

1668
01:29:11,640 --> 01:29:14,240
Speaker 2: that they've added and the moves to that locker room

1669
01:29:14,800 --> 01:29:17,639
Speaker 2: that you know make you raise the eyebrown and go, hmm,

1670
01:29:18,120 --> 01:29:22,160
Speaker 2: this is interesting. But you mentioned James Harden and I'll

1671
01:29:22,200 --> 01:29:23,640
Speaker 2: get to him in a second. Just to close off

1672
01:29:23,680 --> 01:29:25,960
Speaker 2: the Kyrie I'm always a believer. If you've traded a

1673
01:29:25,960 --> 01:29:29,360
Speaker 2: bunch of stuff, it's the Trey Lance discussion, Like, at

1674
01:29:29,400 --> 01:29:31,840
Speaker 2: some point it's sunk costs and if it doesn't work,

1675
01:29:31,880 --> 01:29:34,439
Speaker 2: it doesn't work. So the fact that they were even

1676
01:29:34,479 --> 01:29:38,200
Speaker 2: at the table with Kyrie meant that they thought something

1677
01:29:38,280 --> 01:29:40,759
Speaker 2: was salvageable coming out of the back end of that season.

1678
01:29:40,920 --> 01:29:42,759
Speaker 2: And I gotta imagine there were a bunch of text

1679
01:29:42,840 --> 01:29:46,080
Speaker 2: chains once things started happening in the playoffs. Here the

1680
01:29:46,160 --> 01:29:48,840
Speaker 2: Lakers go on their run. There's the heat on the

1681
01:29:48,880 --> 01:29:53,080
Speaker 2: other side going, why didn't we try to get in again?

1682
01:29:53,160 --> 01:29:55,120
Speaker 3: What did we do? We could have gotten in?

1683
01:29:55,160 --> 01:29:59,760
Speaker 2: And who knows how things break the way the schedule

1684
01:30:00,439 --> 01:30:04,519
Speaker 2: the playoff series all balloon. But to the point about

1685
01:30:04,560 --> 01:30:06,920
Speaker 2: the trade, you gutted some of your bench, kind of

1686
01:30:06,960 --> 01:30:10,559
Speaker 2: like Phoenix had in the Kevin Durant Neil. But like

1687
01:30:10,640 --> 01:30:13,040
Speaker 2: sometimes you need to pull back, and I referenced the

1688
01:30:13,040 --> 01:30:16,640
Speaker 2: football side of it is you made the trade. You

1689
01:30:16,680 --> 01:30:19,960
Speaker 2: can't unring that now. Yeah, so if it isn't working,

1690
01:30:20,000 --> 01:30:21,519
Speaker 2: then you can just tell them to beat it and

1691
01:30:21,560 --> 01:30:24,200
Speaker 2: move on. Instead, you structured a deal. It's two years

1692
01:30:24,240 --> 01:30:27,080
Speaker 2: plus a player option, and you add that third year,

1693
01:30:27,560 --> 01:30:29,680
Speaker 2: because you know you can at least get one year

1694
01:30:29,720 --> 01:30:31,040
Speaker 2: of honeymoon theory.

1695
01:30:31,160 --> 01:30:31,439
Speaker 3: Sure.

1696
01:30:31,600 --> 01:30:35,120
Speaker 4: Sure, and Dallas didn't give up tons of draft capital

1697
01:30:35,200 --> 01:30:39,040
Speaker 4: like Phoenix did and right in their deal for Kevin

1698
01:30:39,120 --> 01:30:41,960
Speaker 4: Durant last year, so you at least have that going

1699
01:30:42,000 --> 01:30:43,720
Speaker 4: for you. I just don't think I don't think you

1700
01:30:43,760 --> 01:30:46,200
Speaker 4: could lowball them. Look at what look at what's happened

1701
01:30:46,960 --> 01:30:49,560
Speaker 4: to transition to James Harden. Look at what's happened in

1702
01:30:49,600 --> 01:30:54,679
Speaker 4: Philadelphia where James Harden takes the team friendly deal last

1703
01:30:54,760 --> 01:30:59,519
Speaker 4: year allows them to have some financial flexibility. Now time

1704
01:30:59,560 --> 01:31:02,599
Speaker 4: comes aroun On where he has the opportunity to opt

1705
01:31:02,640 --> 01:31:06,120
Speaker 4: in or opt out, and he's like, I'm not hearing

1706
01:31:06,160 --> 01:31:09,560
Speaker 4: from Darryl Moury, who's a close friend. And Maury's obviously

1707
01:31:09,640 --> 01:31:14,200
Speaker 4: got the history of when you're talking about tampering or

1708
01:31:14,280 --> 01:31:18,120
Speaker 4: having improper conversations with free agents, so he's got to

1709
01:31:18,160 --> 01:31:20,439
Speaker 4: watch that. But that affected him. That is the effected

1710
01:31:20,520 --> 01:31:23,679
Speaker 4: James Harden to the essence that he is opting in

1711
01:31:23,760 --> 01:31:26,920
Speaker 4: and has requested a trade essentially because he didn't like

1712
01:31:26,960 --> 01:31:29,200
Speaker 4: the way that he was treated. And I know it's

1713
01:31:29,320 --> 01:31:34,080
Speaker 4: hand handling Kyrie Irving with kid gloves but if you

1714
01:31:34,120 --> 01:31:37,880
Speaker 4: were to lowball him, I don't think you had to

1715
01:31:37,880 --> 01:31:40,639
Speaker 4: show the commitment to him. You couldn't. You couldn't play

1716
01:31:40,720 --> 01:31:43,120
Speaker 4: games with him because in the end you needed it

1717
01:31:43,240 --> 01:31:45,800
Speaker 4: more than really anybody else in the league, and it

1718
01:31:45,800 --> 01:31:48,240
Speaker 4: would have hurt you in the long run to play

1719
01:31:48,240 --> 01:31:48,960
Speaker 4: games with him.

1720
01:31:49,320 --> 01:31:50,160
Speaker 3: Oh, one hundred percent.

1721
01:31:50,280 --> 01:31:54,640
Speaker 2: And as we've seen, look with star power in the NBA,

1722
01:31:54,840 --> 01:31:57,639
Speaker 2: and look, I'm all for player agency. I'm all for

1723
01:31:57,680 --> 01:32:00,479
Speaker 2: whatever you do, however you do it. If you can

1724
01:32:00,520 --> 01:32:03,840
Speaker 2: figure out a better situation or talk up and pipe

1725
01:32:03,880 --> 01:32:06,639
Speaker 2: up to your bosses to get a better situation, you should.

1726
01:32:06,920 --> 01:32:09,200
Speaker 2: So when people are mad and James Harden, as we

1727
01:32:09,280 --> 01:32:12,040
Speaker 2: transition into him, people still bring up, well, I don't

1728
01:32:12,080 --> 01:32:14,000
Speaker 2: like what he did, you know with Houston, I'm like,

1729
01:32:14,080 --> 01:32:16,680
Speaker 2: I'd rather have a guy do that than have the

1730
01:32:16,760 --> 01:32:20,840
Speaker 2: anonymous sources about how unhappy guys are behind the scene.

1731
01:32:20,840 --> 01:32:23,280
Speaker 2: If you're upset and you don't think he can win

1732
01:32:23,360 --> 01:32:27,000
Speaker 2: and whatever. Yeah, it's kind of like the Don situation

1733
01:32:27,120 --> 01:32:30,599
Speaker 2: in Colorado. It's brash and a little lot of character,

1734
01:32:31,200 --> 01:32:34,200
Speaker 2: but you're just you're speaking what your truth is. Now,

1735
01:32:34,280 --> 01:32:36,439
Speaker 2: once you start moving a few times, I think you're

1736
01:32:36,439 --> 01:32:40,160
Speaker 2: probably gonna find more teams or gun shy because how

1737
01:32:40,240 --> 01:32:43,800
Speaker 2: quickly do things turn? What's the phrase? And treating with

1738
01:32:43,920 --> 01:32:45,960
Speaker 2: kid gloves and all of those that you have to

1739
01:32:46,000 --> 01:32:49,479
Speaker 2: do to keep that relationship. Right now, with James Harden,

1740
01:32:49,760 --> 01:32:52,280
Speaker 2: you've got the suitors and it's like, all right, what

1741
01:32:52,400 --> 01:32:56,240
Speaker 2: does he do to push your team over the top?

1742
01:32:56,280 --> 01:32:58,200
Speaker 2: And I guess that's the question at this stage of

1743
01:32:58,200 --> 01:33:01,040
Speaker 2: his career, great player, what does he put you over?

1744
01:33:01,400 --> 01:33:05,560
Speaker 2: Rockets were the favorite as of Friday. Those odds, I

1745
01:33:05,560 --> 01:33:08,360
Speaker 2: would imagine have change. Getting all the monies that have

1746
01:33:08,479 --> 01:33:10,680
Speaker 2: been spent. You've still got the Clippers that are on

1747
01:33:10,720 --> 01:33:14,880
Speaker 2: the radar in terms of would be suitors. Knicks have

1748
01:33:14,960 --> 01:33:19,080
Speaker 2: made some move they bring in Devincenzo, So some of

1749
01:33:19,120 --> 01:33:24,960
Speaker 2: the options that were on the board before the spending

1750
01:33:25,080 --> 01:33:28,799
Speaker 2: spreeze and the dominoes started to fall maybe off the table.

1751
01:33:29,120 --> 01:33:31,640
Speaker 2: But I guess with Harden, it's just the right What

1752
01:33:31,760 --> 01:33:35,000
Speaker 2: am I getting when it matters? I can get numbers

1753
01:33:35,479 --> 01:33:38,400
Speaker 2: once or twice a week. Maybe he has a great

1754
01:33:38,400 --> 01:33:41,240
Speaker 2: week where he's killing it all around, But when I

1755
01:33:41,240 --> 01:33:43,880
Speaker 2: get to the playoffs, once he got left and is

1756
01:33:43,880 --> 01:33:46,439
Speaker 2: he pushing me over the top? And history to this

1757
01:33:46,479 --> 01:33:47,320
Speaker 2: point says.

1758
01:33:47,320 --> 01:33:51,400
Speaker 4: No, did have two forty point games in that Boston series,

1759
01:33:51,400 --> 01:33:52,960
Speaker 4: but again a series they had a three to two

1760
01:33:53,040 --> 01:33:55,160
Speaker 4: lead on and couldn't close out the final two games.

1761
01:33:55,880 --> 01:34:01,519
Speaker 4: The you can't. It's a little like Damian Lillard situation

1762
01:34:01,600 --> 01:34:04,800
Speaker 4: in Portland. You know, Portland was Portland was never going

1763
01:34:04,840 --> 01:34:07,240
Speaker 4: to be able to bring in another player that was

1764
01:34:07,400 --> 01:34:10,800
Speaker 4: better than Damian Lillard. Like Lillard was always going to

1765
01:34:10,880 --> 01:34:15,000
Speaker 4: have to be the one. And it's similar into the fact,

1766
01:34:15,040 --> 01:34:18,280
Speaker 4: Mike of James Harden, where I think James Harden is

1767
01:34:18,320 --> 01:34:20,760
Speaker 4: always considering himself the one. I don't think that we

1768
01:34:20,840 --> 01:34:23,519
Speaker 4: considered him. I think we considered him the one B

1769
01:34:23,680 --> 01:34:26,960
Speaker 4: in Philadelphia and be the one A. Then Harden the

1770
01:34:27,000 --> 01:34:32,400
Speaker 4: one B, and the numbers that Harden puts up shows that, Okay,

1771
01:34:32,479 --> 01:34:35,280
Speaker 4: yeah he could be a number one, but you can't

1772
01:34:35,320 --> 01:34:37,840
Speaker 4: have a championship team anymore with him as a number one.

1773
01:34:38,400 --> 01:34:41,120
Speaker 4: They may have come close in the Western Conference finals,

1774
01:34:41,360 --> 01:34:45,200
Speaker 4: you know, with challenging the Warriors, and then Chris Paul

1775
01:34:45,240 --> 01:34:48,320
Speaker 4: ends up getting hurt. That was the opportunity. But he

1776
01:34:48,400 --> 01:34:50,559
Speaker 4: does have to kind of play the one B or

1777
01:34:50,560 --> 01:34:53,360
Speaker 4: the second fiddle. He's got to be the number two.

1778
01:34:53,960 --> 01:34:56,000
Speaker 4: The thing that I would worry about with Harden is

1779
01:34:56,520 --> 01:35:00,000
Speaker 4: remember when James Harden showed up out of shape in Brooklyn,

1780
01:35:00,080 --> 01:35:02,479
Speaker 4: you know, a couple of years ago, and that was

1781
01:35:02,520 --> 01:35:04,640
Speaker 4: at a place that he wanted to be at with

1782
01:35:05,040 --> 01:35:06,800
Speaker 4: his buddy. Like, if you may not want to do

1783
01:35:06,840 --> 01:35:08,640
Speaker 4: it for the organization, or you may not want to

1784
01:35:08,680 --> 01:35:10,680
Speaker 4: do it for the team or the people in the

1785
01:35:10,680 --> 01:35:14,200
Speaker 4: front office, but you know you're there. You're teaming up

1786
01:35:14,240 --> 01:35:16,839
Speaker 4: with Kevin Durant or you had a relationship with before.

1787
01:35:17,280 --> 01:35:19,120
Speaker 4: You guys are gonna get together. This is gonna be

1788
01:35:19,439 --> 01:35:23,880
Speaker 4: you know, Kevin Durant green lighted you coming over from

1789
01:35:23,960 --> 01:35:26,360
Speaker 4: Houston as part of that deal, and then you're gonna

1790
01:35:26,360 --> 01:35:29,679
Speaker 4: show up and you're gonna be out of shape. Yeah,

1791
01:35:29,680 --> 01:35:32,280
Speaker 4: it works himself back in, But it's just it's not

1792
01:35:32,400 --> 01:35:35,360
Speaker 4: a great sign that I just the Knicks don't make

1793
01:35:35,400 --> 01:35:38,360
Speaker 4: a lot of sense. The Clippers have their own problems,

1794
01:35:38,479 --> 01:35:40,360
Speaker 4: So all that you would have to do is figure out,

1795
01:35:40,720 --> 01:35:43,599
Speaker 4: all right, how do we manage this problem. But again,

1796
01:35:43,640 --> 01:35:46,080
Speaker 4: it's the same same six or eight teams that are

1797
01:35:46,120 --> 01:35:49,240
Speaker 4: all trying to vie for these players. And I'd rather

1798
01:35:49,280 --> 01:35:51,000
Speaker 4: be in the other two third of the league. Mic

1799
01:35:51,080 --> 01:35:53,599
Speaker 4: and build like the Nuggets and these other teams than

1800
01:35:53,640 --> 01:35:56,040
Speaker 4: trying to figure out a way to fit James Harden

1801
01:35:56,080 --> 01:35:56,839
Speaker 4: into my squad.

1802
01:35:57,120 --> 01:36:01,439
Speaker 2: Well, the name and the back of the trading card

1803
01:36:02,400 --> 01:36:05,559
Speaker 2: is one of the uh the phrases that we've started

1804
01:36:05,840 --> 01:36:08,320
Speaker 2: to run a bus Jason, and I was like, how

1805
01:36:08,400 --> 01:36:11,360
Speaker 2: much are you hey? Led League in X Y Z right,

1806
01:36:11,400 --> 01:36:14,720
Speaker 2: you'd have the diamond next to it or the italisized

1807
01:36:14,720 --> 01:36:17,879
Speaker 2: their bold faced or whatever. But I mean for the Clippers,

1808
01:36:18,000 --> 01:36:21,320
Speaker 2: I mean, come on, if I can get Kawhi, Paul George,

1809
01:36:21,800 --> 01:36:26,479
Speaker 2: they just re signed Russell Westbrook and Hardened together, I

1810
01:36:26,479 --> 01:36:29,120
Speaker 2: mean they can't use the street lights over spotlights at

1811
01:36:29,120 --> 01:36:34,080
Speaker 2: that point. Oh no, and they shouldn't anyway. But it's like,

1812
01:36:34,120 --> 01:36:37,600
Speaker 2: come on, those four guys together, come on, tell me

1813
01:36:37,680 --> 01:36:40,200
Speaker 2: the theater we we can have here in southern Califoria.

1814
01:36:40,320 --> 01:36:43,479
Speaker 4: It would it would it would be crazy. It would

1815
01:36:43,479 --> 01:36:45,640
Speaker 4: actually be too much. And you know what would like

1816
01:36:46,240 --> 01:36:48,839
Speaker 4: for ast dysfunctional as the Lakers have been at times

1817
01:36:48,920 --> 01:36:52,760
Speaker 4: over the last decade, with some highs and lows, the

1818
01:36:52,760 --> 01:36:54,760
Speaker 4: Clippers have always just been a problem. They haven't been

1819
01:36:54,800 --> 01:36:58,640
Speaker 4: as dysfunctional. That would the Lakers would be back to

1820
01:36:58,720 --> 01:37:02,120
Speaker 4: being the stable organization, which they've shown so far. You

1821
01:37:02,200 --> 01:37:04,679
Speaker 4: touched on earlier in the show, and the Clippers would

1822
01:37:04,680 --> 01:37:06,280
Speaker 4: be the ones that are that are up and down.

1823
01:37:06,640 --> 01:37:08,559
Speaker 4: You know, the other deal about this is there is

1824
01:37:08,680 --> 01:37:12,920
Speaker 4: zero repercussions for any GM or president of basketball ops

1825
01:37:13,320 --> 01:37:17,320
Speaker 4: in these deals like that. It's for some reason, it's

1826
01:37:17,360 --> 01:37:21,280
Speaker 4: okay to give up for first round picks, or it's

1827
01:37:21,320 --> 01:37:24,000
Speaker 4: okay to just give up all these pick swaps because

1828
01:37:24,040 --> 01:37:26,439
Speaker 4: that's all you have because you traded your first round picks.

1829
01:37:26,760 --> 01:37:31,800
Speaker 4: Like there's there is no there is. It's easy for

1830
01:37:31,880 --> 01:37:33,960
Speaker 4: the GM because guess what if it doesn't work out,

1831
01:37:34,320 --> 01:37:36,200
Speaker 4: guess who's fault it is, Well, it's the player's fault.

1832
01:37:36,200 --> 01:37:37,920
Speaker 4: There are these these are the best players on earth,

1833
01:37:38,320 --> 01:37:38,599
Speaker 4: you know.

1834
01:37:38,760 --> 01:37:40,200
Speaker 2: The guys that one coach of the year of the

1835
01:37:40,280 --> 01:37:41,760
Speaker 2: year before is fault too.

1836
01:37:41,880 --> 01:37:43,600
Speaker 4: The only one, the only one that gets blamed for

1837
01:37:43,600 --> 01:37:45,760
Speaker 4: it was Rob Polinka and now he's deciding it. You

1838
01:37:45,760 --> 01:37:47,760
Speaker 4: know what, I'm not gonna do it Lebron's way. I'm

1839
01:37:47,760 --> 01:37:49,479
Speaker 4: gonna do it my way. And look what's happened in

1840
01:37:49,479 --> 01:37:50,000
Speaker 4: the last year.

1841
01:37:50,120 --> 01:37:52,800

Speaker 2: draft will commence and I've got the number one pick.

1851
01:38:28,160 --> 01:38:29,960
Speaker 2: Where am I going? We'll talk about it next year

1852
01:38:30,000 --> 01:38:35,280
Speaker 2: on Fox Welcome back in Fox Sports Sunday. We're live

1853
01:38:35,320 --> 01:38:38,559
Speaker 2: from the Tyraq dot com studios. Mike Carmen nan Byer

Speaker 2: with you. If you want to try to find us

01:38:48,640 --> 01:38:51,559
Speaker 4: Please please tell us everything you have to say in

1858
01:38:51,560 --> 01:38:52,080
Speaker 4: one tweet.

1859
01:38:52,240 --> 01:38:55,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly, not in multiple tweets. Use all two hundred

1860
01:38:55,800 --> 01:39:01,200
Speaker 2: and eighty characters to get your thoughts, advice, criticisms all in.

1861
01:39:01,560 --> 01:39:05,000
Speaker 2: I accept them all. It's not like I'm trying to hide. Eventually,

1862
01:39:05,040 --> 01:39:07,360
Speaker 2: I'll just start giving out my phone number like our

1863
01:39:07,400 --> 01:39:10,519
Speaker 2: guy Petros does on his on AM five seventy.

1864
01:39:11,160 --> 01:39:13,240
Speaker 4: I'll tell you what I think that everybody has to

1865
01:39:13,280 --> 01:39:17,519
Speaker 4: start treating Twitter responsibly if we're all going to get

1866
01:39:17,920 --> 01:39:21,600
Speaker 4: through this together. And this goes out to all the

1867
01:39:21,640 --> 01:39:25,400
Speaker 4: sports teams out there, Mike Carmen, stop sending tweets wishing

1868
01:39:25,400 --> 01:39:30,080
Speaker 4: people happy birthday. I'm sorry. That is of the six

1869
01:39:30,160 --> 01:39:32,960
Speaker 4: hundred tweets that I can see today. I do not

1870
01:39:33,120 --> 01:39:36,439
Speaker 4: need to know La Dodgers that it's Caleb Ferguson's birthday.

1871
01:39:36,640 --> 01:39:37,360
Speaker 3: I don't care.

1872
01:39:37,560 --> 01:39:40,759
Speaker 4: If I wanted to, I would have looked it up myself.

1873
01:39:41,400 --> 01:39:43,840
Speaker 4: I am now down to five hundred and ninety nine,

1874
01:39:44,400 --> 01:39:46,320
Speaker 4: and while I do have the knowledge that it's Caleb

1875
01:39:46,360 --> 01:39:50,040
Speaker 4: Ferguson's birthday, I could have gone without it. I could

1876
01:39:50,040 --> 01:39:53,559
Speaker 4: have seen another tweet. I could have gone with something else.

1877
01:39:53,920 --> 01:39:57,120
Speaker 4: Teams in this new day and age of Twitter, please

1878
01:39:57,600 --> 01:40:02,400
Speaker 4: stop tweeting happy birthday to players unless they're forty years

1879
01:40:02,439 --> 01:40:03,840
Speaker 4: old or something. That's it.

1880
01:40:04,160 --> 01:40:06,280
Speaker 2: I would say this Dan, the one thing it does,

1881
01:40:06,479 --> 01:40:09,719
Speaker 2: and this is the grumpy old man, grumpy old troll.

1882
01:40:09,760 --> 01:40:11,439
Speaker 2: If you want to go back to the door, the

1883
01:40:11,520 --> 01:40:15,200
Speaker 2: Explorer days I'm living under the bridge. Yeah, yeah, you

1884
01:40:15,240 --> 01:40:19,400
Speaker 2: all remember the song is this Twitter thing gets me

1885
01:40:19,479 --> 01:40:21,680
Speaker 2: closer to becoming the recluse that I want to be

1886
01:40:21,800 --> 01:40:26,839
Speaker 2: in this world, and I like to disappear at times,

1887
01:40:26,920 --> 01:40:28,639
Speaker 2: like we talk about, I like noise.

1888
01:40:28,640 --> 01:40:30,479
Speaker 3: We talked about a little bit earlier. I have this.

1889
01:40:32,160 --> 01:40:34,880
Speaker 2: Again, trying to come to grips with it. I know

1890
01:40:34,920 --> 01:40:39,080
Speaker 2: it's been hard for people that have been around me, relationships,

1891
01:40:39,080 --> 01:40:42,559
Speaker 2: et cetera, like with different levels. It's like I can't

1892
01:40:42,600 --> 01:40:47,120
Speaker 2: have silence, so I ruined moments. I ruin plenty of things,

1893
01:40:47,560 --> 01:40:49,920
Speaker 2: great songs and a great song list if you're paying

1894
01:40:49,960 --> 01:40:53,760
Speaker 2: attention to what I'm doing, or I've probably given you

1895
01:40:53,840 --> 01:40:57,599
Speaker 2: random theories on the meaning of life. But Twitter noise

1896
01:40:57,800 --> 01:41:01,519
Speaker 2: and that constant scroll when you're bored, Right, you're in

1897
01:41:01,560 --> 01:41:05,559
Speaker 2: a doctor's waiting room, your kids in the dentist, what

1898
01:41:05,560 --> 01:41:08,760
Speaker 2: are you doing? You're scrolling on Twitter, You're scrolling on Instagram.

1899
01:41:08,800 --> 01:41:11,439
Speaker 2: Taking that away is probably better for my limbs, right,

1900
01:41:11,520 --> 01:41:15,280
Speaker 2: My finger's probably a little bit better, but also maybe

1901
01:41:15,320 --> 01:41:17,360
Speaker 2: my mental well being not checking.

1902
01:41:17,920 --> 01:41:21,799
Speaker 4: I'll be surprised on how that works now. The PGA

1903
01:41:21,880 --> 01:41:25,360
Speaker 4: tour tweeted a whole in one video of Max Homa

1904
01:41:25,920 --> 01:41:31,599
Speaker 4: getting an ace. This, yes, that is proper content. But

1905
01:41:31,640 --> 01:41:34,640
Speaker 4: then I saw a big cat from Barstool Sports retweet it,

1906
01:41:34,960 --> 01:41:36,680
Speaker 4: and I felt, now I've doubled up in my use.

1907
01:41:37,560 --> 01:41:40,200
Speaker 4: So now I gotta remember on what exactly I quote

1908
01:41:40,240 --> 01:41:43,720
Speaker 4: retweet or what I've seen before. Again, I think the

1909
01:41:43,720 --> 01:41:45,800
Speaker 4: people who retweet a bunch are the ones where you're

1910
01:41:45,840 --> 01:41:49,920
Speaker 4: gonna have to unfollow because they're just they're deciding what

1911
01:41:50,040 --> 01:41:52,200
Speaker 4: you're going to see in your six hundred.

1912
01:41:52,439 --> 01:41:58,000
Speaker 2: Ooh someone else. Yes, now my overlord in the digital world.

1913
01:41:57,840 --> 01:41:59,400
Speaker 4: And hey, you know how to care about this. You're

1914
01:41:59,400 --> 01:42:03,040
Speaker 4: gonna leave this format and go out yonder.

1915
01:42:03,040 --> 01:42:04,960
Speaker 2: Well, I mean, I got a few more years in

1916
01:42:05,080 --> 01:42:07,920
Speaker 2: me before I get to disappear. But eventually I'm going

1917
01:42:08,000 --> 01:42:11,680
Speaker 2: Dan Haggerty Beard style. I'm gonna be fishing out on

1918
01:42:11,760 --> 01:42:15,559
Speaker 2: the old Pond and the Seamen Pond, and then I'm

1919
01:42:17,280 --> 01:42:19,840
Speaker 2: I will have my porch swing and go hiding. But

1920
01:42:19,920 --> 01:42:22,800
Speaker 2: until then, we have fantasy football content and we talk

1921
01:42:22,840 --> 01:42:24,360
Speaker 2: about the Eye Watcher Flex podcast.

1922
01:42:24,439 --> 01:42:25,080
Speaker 3: This is where Busch.

1923
01:42:25,600 --> 01:42:28,160
Speaker 2: You get to fire up your headset and this is

1924
01:42:28,200 --> 01:42:30,280
Speaker 2: good that you ran in while you missed the feud.

1925
01:42:30,960 --> 01:42:33,360
Speaker 2: You're part of our discussions each and every week on

1926
01:42:33,439 --> 01:42:35,040
Speaker 2: the podcast that we do.

1927
01:42:35,400 --> 01:42:40,040
Speaker 4: And because you came in with no prep whatsoever, we're

1928
01:42:40,080 --> 01:42:42,840
Speaker 4: gonna ask you a lot of fantasy football questions just

1929
01:42:42,880 --> 01:42:43,840
Speaker 4: off the top of your head.

1930
01:42:43,920 --> 01:42:46,680
Speaker 2: Are you telling me he's not been doing his due diligence?

1931
01:42:47,200 --> 01:42:50,320
Speaker 4: Have you started to do any prep for fantasy football? Yeah?

1932
01:42:50,439 --> 01:42:52,599
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean in the sense that I'm paying attention.

1933
01:42:52,720 --> 01:42:55,320
Speaker 6: I haven't done any mocks yet, but I'm starting to.

1934
01:42:55,479 --> 01:42:57,640
Speaker 6: Now that's July. We're hidden moxies.

1935
01:42:57,680 --> 01:42:59,519
Speaker 3: So yeah, and that's for me, right.

1936
01:42:59,560 --> 01:43:02,080
Speaker 2: I Actually, he just was responding as we were coming

1937
01:43:02,880 --> 01:43:06,680
Speaker 2: back out of yield commercials thanks to the sponsors and

1938
01:43:06,720 --> 01:43:12,160
Speaker 2: partners here at Fox Sports Radio, to a league commissioner

1939
01:43:12,680 --> 01:43:15,800
Speaker 2: because we were having trouble linking my franchise. So I've

1940
01:43:15,840 --> 01:43:19,680
Speaker 2: added another league. So last year some success, some victories,

1941
01:43:20,040 --> 01:43:24,040
Speaker 2: and now they had an opening for the auction draft.

1942
01:43:24,080 --> 01:43:26,559
Speaker 2: I said I could get in on that, but we're

1943
01:43:26,560 --> 01:43:27,880
Speaker 2: having trouble linking my league.

1944
01:43:28,160 --> 01:43:28,800
Speaker 3: So we did that.

1945
01:43:28,960 --> 01:43:34,360
Speaker 2: But a week from today, after the random you assignment

1946
01:43:34,400 --> 01:43:38,800
Speaker 2: of draft positions, I've been lucky or unfortunate enough, I'm

1947
01:43:38,840 --> 01:43:41,960
Speaker 2: not quite sure yet to garner the number one pick.

1948
01:43:42,760 --> 01:43:44,280
Speaker 2: So now I've got a week to ponder it.

1949
01:43:45,360 --> 01:43:46,240
Speaker 3: What do you do.

1950
01:43:46,320 --> 01:43:49,560
Speaker 2: It's like Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock. I got to

1951
01:43:49,600 --> 01:43:51,920
Speaker 2: keep that bus moving at this rate of speed or

1952
01:43:51,960 --> 01:43:55,519
Speaker 2: bad things are gonna happen. Dennis Hopper wins. So at

1953
01:43:55,640 --> 01:44:01,160
Speaker 2: number one, you've got a lot of considerations hot shot. Right,

1954
01:44:01,160 --> 01:44:04,200
Speaker 2: We've got all our running backs that we love so much.

1955
01:44:04,479 --> 01:44:08,280
Speaker 2: I've got people clamoring for Travis Kelsey to continue his

1956
01:44:08,360 --> 01:44:11,880
Speaker 2: fifteen minutes of fame because he is such an outlier

1957
01:44:12,439 --> 01:44:16,640
Speaker 2: at the position historically, and he, you know, just vanquished

1958
01:44:17,360 --> 01:44:21,280
Speaker 2: Steph Curry and Klay Thompson and that golf thing that

1959
01:44:21,320 --> 01:44:22,200
Speaker 2: nobody puld attention to.

1960
01:44:22,280 --> 01:44:24,559
Speaker 4: Yeah, that got zero pub by the way, like all

1961
01:44:24,600 --> 01:44:25,640
Speaker 4: of a sudden, it was just on.

1962
01:44:26,040 --> 01:44:28,000
Speaker 2: I saw a bunch of commercials for it, right, because

1963
01:44:28,280 --> 01:44:30,320
Speaker 2: some of the shows that I actually watch, when you

1964
01:44:30,360 --> 01:44:32,560
Speaker 2: get sucked into a bunch of law and Order marathons,

1965
01:44:32,600 --> 01:44:33,840
Speaker 2: all of a sudden it would show up there in

1966
01:44:33,880 --> 01:44:36,320
Speaker 2: the right navigation of Hey, don't forget this, but I

1967
01:44:36,360 --> 01:44:38,479
Speaker 2: never knew what day it was. Yeah, and then all

1968
01:44:38,479 --> 01:44:40,880
Speaker 2: of a sudden, I like, come in on Thursday, we're

1969
01:44:40,880 --> 01:44:42,880
Speaker 2: gonna do the showing, eh, that's on TV.

1970
01:44:43,040 --> 01:44:43,599
Speaker 3: How about that?

1971
01:44:44,880 --> 01:44:48,200
Speaker 4: Yes, which is okay? I mean, it's fine, it's another event.

1972
01:44:48,280 --> 01:44:52,360
Speaker 2: It is what it is. You move on, I mean whatever.

1973
01:44:52,600 --> 01:44:55,360
Speaker 2: Draymond Green walking around and taunting people was the biggest

1974
01:44:55,360 --> 01:44:57,000
Speaker 2: story to come out of that. But we have all

1975
01:44:57,000 --> 01:45:00,200
Speaker 2: the running backs depending on your league setting, and and

1976
01:45:00,280 --> 01:45:02,760
Speaker 2: you know, when you're in dynasty leagues whatever, folks start

1977
01:45:03,080 --> 01:45:06,200
Speaker 2: trying to push the quarterbacks up in there. But what's

1978
01:45:06,280 --> 01:45:09,240
Speaker 2: curious to me is when we have the separation, we've

1979
01:45:09,240 --> 01:45:12,760
Speaker 2: got running backs that may hold out what's real, what's

1980
01:45:12,800 --> 01:45:15,640
Speaker 2: imagined in that world? Right when you talk about a

1981
01:45:15,720 --> 01:45:19,479
Speaker 2: Saquon Barkley, when you talk about Josh Jacobs, and not

1982
01:45:19,560 --> 01:45:21,840
Speaker 2: that you're necessarily looking at him number one, but certainly

1983
01:45:21,880 --> 01:45:26,200
Speaker 2: in your first round board as you start to mock

1984
01:45:26,280 --> 01:45:29,120
Speaker 2: it up for yourself, but one name that is cracked

1985
01:45:29,280 --> 01:45:30,920
Speaker 2: up in the top five. I wanted to get your

1986
01:45:30,920 --> 01:45:33,960
Speaker 2: guys perspective on this, if you would be so kind.

1987
01:45:34,280 --> 01:45:39,240
Speaker 2: Amongst your McCaffrey's tailors, Ecklers, the aforementioned Barkley, I've seen

1988
01:45:39,360 --> 01:45:44,600
Speaker 2: Bijon Robinson argued as either one or two in a

1989
01:45:44,680 --> 01:45:48,679
Speaker 2: number of spaces as he joins the Fray and becomes

1990
01:45:48,720 --> 01:45:50,400
Speaker 2: a member of the Atlanta Falcons.

1991
01:45:50,479 --> 01:45:53,479
Speaker 4: Dan you first, I think that he is one of

1992
01:45:53,680 --> 01:45:56,839
Speaker 4: only three players that you can consider at number one overall.

1993
01:45:57,360 --> 01:45:59,760
Speaker 4: He is one of them, Okay, I would put him

1994
01:45:59,760 --> 01:46:05,040
Speaker 4: in that conversation. I think Atlanta obviously sets up to

1995
01:46:05,560 --> 01:46:10,400
Speaker 4: run the football a lot. We've seen that, whether it

1996
01:46:10,560 --> 01:46:16,920
Speaker 4: was Corderoo, Patterson, al Jeer others who have toted the football.

1997
01:46:17,439 --> 01:46:21,760
Speaker 4: There are opportunities in Atlanta for success. And now you've

1998
01:46:21,840 --> 01:46:24,920
Speaker 4: used a top ten pick on a guy. Yeah, yeah,

1999
01:46:24,960 --> 01:46:28,400
Speaker 4: I think that there is some there is some absolute

2000
01:46:28,760 --> 01:46:32,240
Speaker 4: boom with that, and I think that he is Again

2001
01:46:32,280 --> 01:46:35,880
Speaker 4: I won't name the other two just yet, but I

2002
01:46:35,920 --> 01:46:38,120
Speaker 4: think that he is one of three players that you

2003
01:46:38,160 --> 01:46:40,120
Speaker 4: would have to consider at number one. So I am

2004
01:46:40,160 --> 01:46:40,800
Speaker 4: with that train.

2005
01:46:41,240 --> 01:46:45,599
Speaker 6: Bursheger, I think I think definitely in the top half

2006
01:46:45,640 --> 01:46:46,280
Speaker 6: of the first round.

2007
01:46:46,280 --> 01:46:46,639
Speaker 3: For sure.

2008
01:46:47,120 --> 01:46:50,280
Speaker 6: I would be hesitant to go number one overall with

2009
01:46:50,360 --> 01:46:53,400
Speaker 6: Beijon just because of the fact that he's a rookie.

2010
01:46:53,600 --> 01:46:56,280
Speaker 6: But I think Dan's one hundred percent right. I think

2011
01:46:56,320 --> 01:47:00,439
Speaker 6: the investment that Atlanta's put into him, he's he's going

2012
01:47:00,439 --> 01:47:03,639
Speaker 6: to be used so heavily. Just imagining Arthur Smith using

2013
01:47:03,680 --> 01:47:07,200
Speaker 6: him as Derrick Henry in that offense, like the fact that, yeah,

2014
01:47:07,240 --> 01:47:11,639
Speaker 6: Cordero Patterson and Tyler Algier were both strong fantasy options

2015
01:47:11,680 --> 01:47:16,160
Speaker 6: when they were the main backs in those systems last year.

2016
01:47:16,840 --> 01:47:17,080
Speaker 3: Yeah.

2017
01:47:17,160 --> 01:47:20,599
Speaker 6: No, I think if I'm going number one, there's one

2018
01:47:20,640 --> 01:47:24,960
Speaker 6: person have I would go and feel very confident in.

2019
01:47:25,000 --> 01:47:27,880
Speaker 6: There's another name that I feel very strong about. I

2020
01:47:27,920 --> 01:47:31,040
Speaker 6: probably wouldn't go Bejon one. But in that three to

2021
01:47:31,120 --> 01:47:32,360
Speaker 6: six range. Absolutely.

2022
01:47:32,600 --> 01:47:35,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, just the curiosity, and I feel bad for all

2023
01:47:35,400 --> 01:47:37,880
Speaker 2: year because this plays in a little bit to the

2024
01:47:38,160 --> 01:47:43,280
Speaker 2: Woe is Me Melvin gordonism of a week ago of devaluation.

2025
01:47:43,880 --> 01:47:45,479
Speaker 2: You come in as a rookie and you have that

2026
01:47:45,560 --> 01:47:48,880
Speaker 2: kind of year. Guess what, We're drafting another rookie who's

2027
01:47:48,920 --> 01:47:51,479
Speaker 2: going not only take your job, he's taking all your touches.

2028
01:47:51,720 --> 01:47:53,400
Speaker 2: Oh and by the way, since you're a running back,

2029
01:47:53,400 --> 01:47:54,600
Speaker 2: you're kind of screwing.

2030
01:47:56,520 --> 01:47:56,720
Speaker 3: Right.

2031
01:47:56,760 --> 01:47:59,040
Speaker 2: I mean, you've got nowhere to go because there's ten

2032
01:47:59,080 --> 01:48:01,719
Speaker 2: other guys that have played in the league and shown

2033
01:48:01,760 --> 01:48:05,160
Speaker 2: they can do something. They're stuck in their respective spots,

2034
01:48:05,560 --> 01:48:08,400
Speaker 2: And well, we're not paying you anything yet because you're

2035
01:48:08,400 --> 01:48:11,280
Speaker 2: a rookie, so so are you. You'll wait your turn

2036
01:48:11,560 --> 01:48:12,720
Speaker 2: and you'll take the scraps.

2037
01:48:12,880 --> 01:48:13,080
Speaker 1: You know.

2038
01:48:13,320 --> 01:48:18,920
Speaker 4: The opportunities are there though, like there is something there.

2039
01:48:19,040 --> 01:48:22,400
Speaker 4: Even when Caleb Huntley had the opportunity to carry the

2040
01:48:22,400 --> 01:48:27,880
Speaker 4: football a little bit, you know, he got had some success.

2041
01:48:29,320 --> 01:48:32,599
Speaker 4: I mean there's so they are going to they are

2042
01:48:32,640 --> 01:48:35,400
Speaker 4: going to run the football. And the reason why Bijon

2043
01:48:35,760 --> 01:48:38,400
Speaker 4: is I think one of the three and a quick time.

2044
01:48:38,439 --> 01:48:42,000
Speaker 4: The other two justin Jefferson, and the guy I think

2045
01:48:42,040 --> 01:48:44,439
Speaker 4: that you should take is Christian McCaffrey. And I think

2046
01:48:44,479 --> 01:48:48,920
Speaker 4: that's I would assume that you're maybe leaning towards McCaffrey,

2047
01:48:49,280 --> 01:48:52,200
Speaker 4: but I think those are the only three guys that

2048
01:48:52,280 --> 01:48:56,440
Speaker 4: you could consider at number one because I think Jefferson

2049
01:48:56,520 --> 01:49:01,880
Speaker 4: top wide receiver. Now, listen, Minnesota is not gonna win

2050
01:49:01,920 --> 01:49:03,920
Speaker 4: as many of those crazy games, so it also may

2051
01:49:04,000 --> 01:49:09,000
Speaker 4: even mean more opportunities for even numbers. Christian mccafrey would

2052
01:49:09,000 --> 01:49:10,360
Speaker 4: be my number one running back. But you have the

2053
01:49:10,439 --> 01:49:13,360
Speaker 4: questions about the health, and if you're questioning then about

2054
01:49:13,400 --> 01:49:15,840
Speaker 4: the health, well then you could question everybody. So that's

2055
01:49:15,880 --> 01:49:18,599
Speaker 4: what puts Bijon in his own realm of just the

2056
01:49:18,680 --> 01:49:21,640
Speaker 4: boom as a freshman, that it's kind of the unknown.

2057
01:49:22,200 --> 01:49:22,960
Speaker 2: Back to you Birsch.

2058
01:49:23,800 --> 01:49:27,120
Speaker 6: I agree, mystery guys, those are the two that I

2059
01:49:27,160 --> 01:49:28,120
Speaker 6: was saying, Yeah.

2060
01:49:28,040 --> 01:49:30,080
Speaker 3: All right, we're in the group things. Let's go.

2061
01:49:30,640 --> 01:49:34,200
Speaker 6: I have McCaffrey one and Jefferson two, And I mean

2062
01:49:34,560 --> 01:49:37,639
Speaker 6: PPR also does matter, but still those two, I think

2063
01:49:37,880 --> 01:49:41,840
Speaker 6: it would even full PPR, I'd probably still go McCaffrey one.

2064
01:49:42,240 --> 01:49:45,960
Speaker 6: I'd look at Bijon three, but i'd be between him

2065
01:49:46,000 --> 01:49:49,760
Speaker 6: and Austin Eckler. And I still think Eckler. Obviously he's

2066
01:49:49,760 --> 01:49:52,360
Speaker 6: in a better offense there. He feels like he kind

2067
01:49:52,360 --> 01:49:54,160
Speaker 6: of has something to prove with all contracts stuff, and

2068
01:49:54,200 --> 01:49:57,080
Speaker 6: he also loves fantasy football, so he's gonna statu pat

2069
01:49:57,080 --> 01:50:00,559
Speaker 6: his stats like crazy. But yeah, that those are the

2070
01:50:00,560 --> 01:50:04,160
Speaker 6: two names where I would still it's very safe to

2071
01:50:04,280 --> 01:50:06,120
Speaker 6: still go either McCaffrey or Jefferson.

2072
01:50:06,160 --> 01:50:06,599
Speaker 4: That one.

2073
01:50:07,280 --> 01:50:10,479
Speaker 2: Austin Eckler the opportunity to be that guy for Kellen

2074
01:50:10,560 --> 01:50:15,439
Speaker 2: Moore and unleash the Justin Herbert everybody has thought he

2075
01:50:15,600 --> 01:50:17,439
Speaker 2: is but hasn't been just yet.

2076
01:50:17,680 --> 01:50:21,080
Speaker 4: For as for as bad as the Chargers were and

2077
01:50:21,120 --> 01:50:27,160
Speaker 4: running the football still got his numbers. Yes, the receptions

2078
01:50:26,960 --> 01:50:29,720
Speaker 4: of obviously a huge part of his game, but you

2079
01:50:29,760 --> 01:50:32,519
Speaker 4: would almost have to think that the offense would be better.

2080
01:50:32,920 --> 01:50:37,800
Speaker 4: And honestly, I know they draft Quinton Johnston from TCU,

2081
01:50:38,000 --> 01:50:41,280
Speaker 4: but Keenan Allen and Mike Williams are kind of now

2082
01:50:42,400 --> 01:50:43,639
Speaker 4: you get what you get.

2083
01:50:43,760 --> 01:50:47,120
Speaker 2: You kind of know if they're healthy. You like Keenan

2084
01:50:47,120 --> 01:50:49,599
Speaker 2: Allen is always the guy we joke pencil in stats

2085
01:50:49,600 --> 01:50:54,080
Speaker 2: for days when he plays. But bringing in Johnston, now

2086
01:50:54,120 --> 01:50:57,360
Speaker 2: you give yourself a bit of fortification. Uh, and you

2087
01:50:57,400 --> 01:50:59,599
Speaker 2: bought a little bit of insurance as it were. Well,

2088
01:50:59,600 --> 01:51:02,000
Speaker 2: thank you. And I do lean toward McCaffrey. The last

2089
01:51:02,000 --> 01:51:04,439
Speaker 2: time I went down that road, he was done very

2090
01:51:04,479 --> 01:51:05,679
Speaker 2: early and.

2091
01:51:05,600 --> 01:51:07,120
Speaker 3: So was I quickly.

2092
01:51:07,120 --> 01:51:09,439
Speaker 4: What I liked about that one Mike's betting. Mike's usually

2093

2170
01:55:16,640 --> 01:55:21,840
Speaker 4: with you. We are now in July, NFL on the horizon. Okay,

2171
01:55:21,880 --> 01:55:23,680
Speaker 4: we're not gonna have an NFL game this month, but

2172
01:55:23,720 --> 01:55:26,560
Speaker 4: we are going to have a bevy of training camps

2173
01:55:26,840 --> 01:55:31,720
Speaker 4: getting ready to open Jets Open Full Team Reports July nineteenth.

2174
01:55:31,800 --> 01:55:35,400
Speaker 2: Great, my show with Jason Smith then becomes Jets Jets.

2175
01:55:36,240 --> 01:55:39,720
Speaker 2: Oh wait, it is Jets Jets Jets because he will

2176
01:55:39,760 --> 01:55:43,160
Speaker 2: be able to fully transition away from the horror show

2177
01:55:43,200 --> 01:55:44,480
Speaker 2: that has been the Mets.

2178
01:55:44,880 --> 01:55:48,040
Speaker 4: How is it going to be when the Jets are

2179
01:55:48,080 --> 01:55:50,080
Speaker 4: on Hard Knocks and you guys are on the air,

2180
01:55:50,120 --> 01:55:52,880
Speaker 4: because you're on the air not only during the obvious

2181
01:55:52,960 --> 01:55:55,400
Speaker 4: for US West Coast airing, but you're also on the

2182
01:55:55,760 --> 01:55:57,360
Speaker 4: air during the East Coast airing.

2183
01:55:57,600 --> 01:56:00,120
Speaker 2: Oh, it'll be good because we'll be able to and

2184
01:56:00,240 --> 01:56:03,360
Speaker 2: quotes around right away. Anything that's of any use.

2185
01:56:04,360 --> 01:56:05,800
Speaker 4: The shows on, so you're not gonna be able to

2186
01:56:05,800 --> 01:56:06,120
Speaker 4: see it.

2187
01:56:06,280 --> 01:56:10,360
Speaker 2: I might have my close caption, okay, and then during

2188
01:56:10,400 --> 01:56:13,680
Speaker 2: commercial breaks we'll have to huddle like it's a fireside

2189
01:56:13,760 --> 01:56:18,000
Speaker 2: chat and FDR is talking to us or something. But yeah,

2190
01:56:18,120 --> 01:56:21,360
Speaker 2: I don't know it. It'll be a difficult proposition. I'm

2191
01:56:21,480 --> 01:56:24,600
Speaker 2: really looking forward to when they stink on a Monday

2192
01:56:24,680 --> 01:56:27,000
Speaker 2: or Thursday night and we're live and in living color

2193
01:56:27,680 --> 01:56:30,600
Speaker 2: watching it unfold in front of us, to watch the

2194
01:56:30,640 --> 01:56:32,440
Speaker 2: meltdowns that that happened.

2195
01:56:32,440 --> 01:56:33,760
Speaker 4: Then that's gonna be the fun part.

2196
01:56:34,240 --> 01:56:36,720
Speaker 2: Well, at least that's the way I hope it plays

2197
01:56:36,760 --> 01:56:39,160
Speaker 2: out in my mind, because if there are any good

2198
01:56:40,240 --> 01:56:42,880
Speaker 2: I may not make it till uh uh. You know

2199
01:56:42,960 --> 01:56:45,560
Speaker 2: there was an old country song. If we make it

2200
01:56:45,680 --> 01:56:49,480
Speaker 2: through December talking about all the craziness of the holidays

2201
01:56:49,520 --> 01:56:52,880
Speaker 2: and life and whatever, then we're gonna be okay. And

2202
01:56:52,960 --> 01:56:54,760
Speaker 2: that's kind of where I'm at. I'm gonna take that

2203
01:56:54,920 --> 01:56:59,840
Speaker 2: because with the Jets season coming, Smith's gonna be insufferable. Now,

2204
01:56:59,840 --> 01:57:03,120
Speaker 2: if they're terrible, I'll be cackling like Ted DIBIASI you

2205
01:57:03,160 --> 01:57:06,480
Speaker 2: know Tyrese Haliburton, Yes, when he got his bag in

2206
01:57:06,600 --> 01:57:10,720
Speaker 2: free agency, posted the montage of the great laugh of

2207
01:57:10,800 --> 01:57:15,400
Speaker 2: the million Dollar Man of WWEWWF floor. I'll be doing

2208
01:57:15,440 --> 01:57:17,520
Speaker 2: the same thing if it goes badly, but if it

2209
01:57:17,560 --> 01:57:19,720
Speaker 2: goes great, it's gonna be a long year for me.

2210
01:57:20,680 --> 01:57:24,200
Speaker 2: Guy who's trying to get back into the monster season. Now,

2211
01:57:24,240 --> 01:57:28,320
Speaker 2: he's been great in terms of consistency in thousand yard seasons,

2212
01:57:28,960 --> 01:57:31,520
Speaker 2: but certainly the Buccaneers looking for more and hoping that

2213
01:57:31,640 --> 01:57:34,760
Speaker 2: Baker Mayfield will be the man to provide it. Mike

2214
01:57:34,840 --> 01:57:40,920
Speaker 2: Evans has nine straight thousand yard seasons to start his

2215
01:57:41,080 --> 01:57:46,440
Speaker 2: NFL career, and he's looking. He's looking to find that

2216
01:57:46,680 --> 01:57:49,800
Speaker 2: record of eleven held by Jerry Rice.

2217
01:57:50,280 --> 01:57:55,720
Speaker 4: And it's a record that I'm surprised that Evans is

2218
01:57:55,800 --> 01:57:58,840
Speaker 4: knocking on the door and that the record is just

2219
01:57:58,840 --> 01:58:00,800
Speaker 4: a left I don't know why I thought it would

2220
01:58:00,840 --> 01:58:04,640
Speaker 4: be larger. I don't know if it's because the threshold

2221
01:58:04,680 --> 01:58:07,760
Speaker 4: of a thousand yard season has gotten less. I know

2222
01:58:07,800 --> 01:58:10,520
Speaker 4: when you and I were growing up collecting football cards,

2223
01:58:10,800 --> 01:58:12,680
Speaker 4: the thousand yard club cards.

2224
01:58:12,400 --> 01:58:13,440
Speaker 2: Those gold ones.

2225
01:58:13,520 --> 01:58:16,480
Speaker 4: Oh they were great, tough for centering, the tough grades,

2226
01:58:16,520 --> 01:58:19,040
Speaker 4: but they were great thousand yard club It was quite

2227
01:58:19,440 --> 01:58:23,840
Speaker 4: quite the deal. Well, Jerry Rice has the record. Jerry

2228
01:58:23,920 --> 01:58:26,360
Speaker 4: Rice has eleven straight seasons, and it was pointed out

2229
01:58:26,400 --> 01:58:29,240
Speaker 4: that his rookie year he didn't have a thousand yards,

2230
01:58:29,320 --> 01:58:33,879
Speaker 4: was just seventy three yards short, so Evans actually holds

2231
01:58:34,240 --> 01:58:37,520
Speaker 4: the record for the most to start a career where

2232
01:58:37,600 --> 01:58:40,520
Speaker 4: Rice is started in a second year. But if you remember,

2233
01:58:40,600 --> 01:58:44,600
Speaker 4: Jerry Rice blew out his knee towards ACL in nineteen

2234
01:58:44,680 --> 01:58:48,200
Speaker 4: ninety seven in an opener against Tampa Bay, only to

2235
01:58:48,240 --> 01:58:51,280
Speaker 4: try to return later that season, played in one game

2236
01:58:51,320 --> 01:58:54,120
Speaker 4: and then busted his kneecap on Monday Night Football. So

2237
01:58:54,200 --> 01:58:56,800
Speaker 4: yet basically a lost season from Jerry Rice. And then

2238
01:58:56,800 --> 01:58:58,560
Speaker 4: the next year he came back and it would have

2239
01:58:58,560 --> 01:59:00,960
Speaker 4: been a thousand So it really probably should have been

2240
01:59:00,960 --> 01:59:04,200
Speaker 4: a thirteen year. But injury plays a part. I know,

2241
01:59:04,280 --> 01:59:07,480
Speaker 4: Mike Evans, hey injury can play apart from him. It's

2242
01:59:07,520 --> 01:59:10,520
Speaker 4: just a different game now, Mike, Now you're playing seventeen games.

2243
01:59:10,800 --> 01:59:13,960
Speaker 4: I just don't think that the thousand yard streak is

2244
01:59:14,560 --> 01:59:17,880
Speaker 4: as big of a deal as it maybe once was

2245
01:59:17,920 --> 01:59:20,760
Speaker 4: because of where we are in the NFL. And no

2246
01:59:20,920 --> 01:59:23,680
Speaker 4: disrespect to Mike Evans, but you know what Jerry Rice

2247
01:59:23,720 --> 01:59:26,280
Speaker 4: did over that span needed so many great things. I

2248
01:59:26,320 --> 01:59:30,120
Speaker 4: just hope that it's not everything should be a record.

2249
01:59:30,480 --> 01:59:33,480
Speaker 4: Let's just say maybe the first ever do it or whatever.

2250
01:59:33,520 --> 01:59:37,040
Speaker 2: Much capital R versus lowercase yeh. Rice finished with fourteen

2251
01:59:37,160 --> 01:59:41,640
Speaker 2: thousand yard seasons for his career. Also different passing games, yep,

2252
01:59:41,760 --> 01:59:45,120
Speaker 2: much more run game as we talk about the lamentation

2253
01:59:45,200 --> 01:59:49,080
Speaker 2: of running backs but staying healthy and committing to seventeen

2254
01:59:49,120 --> 01:59:52,240
Speaker 2: games because we're getting load management. It's coming to the NFL,

2255
01:59:52,400 --> 01:59:53,520
Speaker 2: and it's coming soon.

2261
02:00:13,680 --> 02:00:16,920
Speaker 2: me Mike Harman alongside my guy Dan Byer here on

2262
02:00:17,000 --> 02:00:20,720
Speaker 2: weekdays from noon to four, part of the Doug Gottlieb Show,

2263
02:00:20,800 --> 02:00:23,640
Speaker 2: Cavino and Rich here on Fox Sports Radio, my tag

2264
02:00:23,640 --> 02:00:27,080
Speaker 2: team partner on the iWatch Reflex podcast, and right now,

2265
02:00:27,120 --> 02:00:30,120
Speaker 2: a man like me trying to figure out without paying

2266
02:00:30,160 --> 02:00:33,400
Speaker 2: a dime, how do you find the workaround? Which server

2267
02:00:33,600 --> 02:00:37,200
Speaker 2: is the magic server to get you past your rate limit?

2268
02:00:37,320 --> 02:00:40,280
Speaker 2: Exceeded so you can get the Twitter updates you need.

2269
02:00:40,360 --> 02:00:43,480
Speaker 4: I am comparing it to when they started charging baggage

2270
02:00:43,520 --> 02:00:47,200
Speaker 4: fees on flights. You're like, no way am I going

2271
02:00:47,280 --> 02:00:50,320
Speaker 4: to do this? Absolutely, no way. This is a ripoff.

2272
02:00:50,760 --> 02:00:53,240
Speaker 4: Why am I paying twenty five dollars for a suitcase

2273
02:00:53,680 --> 02:00:55,839
Speaker 4: or thirty dollars? Do I have to pay another forty?

2274
02:00:56,240 --> 02:00:58,320
Speaker 4: And it's either a deal with it and get used

2275
02:00:58,320 --> 02:01:01,920
Speaker 4: to it and pay it or guess what. I've jammed

2276
02:01:02,000 --> 02:01:06,160
Speaker 4: everything into my carry on. That is where and that's

2277
02:01:06,200 --> 02:01:08,720
Speaker 4: where I am right now with Twitter. I am putting

2278
02:01:08,840 --> 02:01:13,600
Speaker 4: everything in my carry on. I am There's no frills, Mike,

2279
02:01:14,240 --> 02:01:19,760
Speaker 4: nothing frivolous, nothing on the edge. I need. I need

2280
02:01:19,800 --> 02:01:22,920
Speaker 4: what I need. I have my essentials and that's what

2281
02:01:23,000 --> 02:01:27,040
Speaker 4: I need from Twitter. So I'm sorry if I'm gonna

2282
02:01:27,080 --> 02:01:30,760
Speaker 4: unfollow some people. I'm just trying to maximize what I

2283
02:01:30,880 --> 02:01:34,840
Speaker 4: can get from this platform, because yeah, I just I'm

2284
02:01:34,840 --> 02:01:36,480
Speaker 4: not ready to pay those baggage fees.

2285
02:01:36,680 --> 02:01:39,080
Speaker 2: Maybe today is that day that I finally just say

2286
02:01:39,160 --> 02:01:42,040
Speaker 2: beat it and you can find me over at Harmon

2287
02:01:42,160 --> 02:01:43,680
Speaker 2: rants once and for all.

2288
02:01:43,520 --> 02:01:47,560
Speaker 4: And sometimes and anybody does this in their profession, they

2289
02:01:47,640 --> 02:01:50,720
Speaker 4: kind of feel that the rest of the world sees

2290
02:01:50,800 --> 02:01:54,400
Speaker 4: it from where they're from. We have more of a

2291
02:01:54,440 --> 02:01:58,080
Speaker 4: reliance on social media because of the platform that we're

2292
02:01:58,120 --> 02:02:01,040
Speaker 4: on and the information that we get from it. But

2293
02:02:01,560 --> 02:02:04,440
Speaker 4: that also doesn't mean that we're different in terms of

2294
02:02:04,480 --> 02:02:07,920
Speaker 4: being sports fans. And I think sports fans who follow

2295
02:02:07,960 --> 02:02:09,840
Speaker 4: a bunch of different sites and now are gonna have

2296
02:02:09,920 --> 02:02:12,720
Speaker 4: to be Okay, if I don't want to add the

2297
02:02:12,800 --> 02:02:14,840
Speaker 4: extra or pay the extra money, I'm gonna have to

2298
02:02:14,840 --> 02:02:17,840
Speaker 4: figure out a way to get my sports information in

2299
02:02:17,880 --> 02:02:20,880
Speaker 4: a certain way. Maybe it's message boards, Maybe it's just

2300
02:02:21,120 --> 02:02:24,080
Speaker 4: what hanging out on Reddit and getting the information there.

2301
02:02:24,600 --> 02:02:29,959
Speaker 4: Ig TikTok. Although I love TikTok, can't necessarily believe everything

2302
02:02:30,040 --> 02:02:32,720
Speaker 4: you see on TikTok, But they're gonna have to be

2303
02:02:32,760 --> 02:02:34,240
Speaker 4: other avenues where you get your fix.

2304
02:02:34,640 --> 02:02:37,000
Speaker 2: Well, you can't believe everything you get on Twitter. Skewed

2305
02:02:37,080 --> 02:02:40,120
Speaker 2: Henderson and where he may or may not have been drafted.

2306
02:02:40,160 --> 02:02:43,480
Speaker 2: I mean, you never know where that information is gonna

2307
02:02:43,520 --> 02:02:48,000
Speaker 2: flow and what's real, what's imagined, what might be influenced

2308
02:02:48,000 --> 02:02:52,640
Speaker 2: by forces unseen. Oh, I got the paranormal in as well,

2309
02:02:52,720 --> 02:02:56,000
Speaker 2: all right, the invisible hand of economics as well, But

2319
02:03:28,400 --> 02:03:32,720
Speaker 2: of shame related to our sports fandom show preparation and

2320
02:03:32,760 --> 02:03:36,400
Speaker 2: how we interact with the outside world in our own

2321
02:03:36,480 --> 02:03:40,080
Speaker 2: sporting universe and how we reconcile it in our respective minds.

2322
02:03:40,160 --> 02:03:43,320
Speaker 2: Dan Byer, but NBA free agency has ruled the roost.

2323
02:03:43,360 --> 02:03:46,839
Speaker 2: We've talked about a lot of the different avenues, teams,

Speaker 2: I'll also go add and follow the i Watcher Flex podcast.

2330
02:04:04,040 --> 02:04:07,640
Speaker 2: New content coming there as well, but one team that

2331
02:04:08,240 --> 02:04:10,640
Speaker 2: you had a couple of moves that they made to

2332
02:04:10,720 --> 02:04:13,800
Speaker 2: try to fort to five things and shore up after

2333
02:04:14,440 --> 02:04:18,360
Speaker 2: a really curious campaign, a fantastic regular season that went awry,

2334
02:04:18,800 --> 02:04:22,240
Speaker 2: and that's the Memphis Grizzlies. Talk about John Morant suspended

2335
02:04:22,240 --> 02:04:25,920
Speaker 2: the first twenty five games of the coming season, obviously

2336
02:04:25,960 --> 02:04:30,720
Speaker 2: in the crosshairs, in the magnifying glasses on him for

2337
02:04:30,800 --> 02:04:34,200
Speaker 2: everything he'll say or do going forward, and rightfully, so

2338
02:04:34,600 --> 02:04:36,920
Speaker 2: right you get a couple of bites at the apple

2339
02:04:37,280 --> 02:04:41,000
Speaker 2: this time twenty five games. And we won't relitigate the

2340
02:04:41,120 --> 02:04:44,480
Speaker 2: suspension itself, but one of the big criticisms of the

2341
02:04:44,480 --> 02:04:48,520
Speaker 2: squad was there's no grown ups in the room. Well,

2342
02:04:48,560 --> 02:04:52,560
Speaker 2: Memphis said, Memphis heard you maybe on Twitter before it

2343
02:04:52,680 --> 02:04:56,720
Speaker 2: finally went to its current state, but they heard the

2344
02:04:56,840 --> 02:05:01,320
Speaker 2: chorus and they saw what transpired and they acted accordingly.

2345
02:05:01,400 --> 02:05:04,920
Speaker 4: It was funny when the Jahn Morant situation started to

2346
02:05:05,000 --> 02:05:08,640
Speaker 4: unfold in March, there was a report that a veteran

2347
02:05:08,720 --> 02:05:12,960
Speaker 4: player spoke up in the locker room saying prior to that, like, hey,

2348
02:05:13,000 --> 02:05:14,960
Speaker 4: you guys need to take this seriously. You need to

2349
02:05:15,000 --> 02:05:18,480
Speaker 4: step up. And I remember going to the Grizzlies page

2350
02:05:18,960 --> 02:05:21,640
Speaker 4: and finding out that Steven Adams was the oldest player

2351
02:05:21,640 --> 02:05:24,000
Speaker 4: on that team at twenty nine years of age. And

2352
02:05:24,040 --> 02:05:27,120
Speaker 4: so then everybody's like, oh, Steven Adams, he's the only

2353
02:05:27,160 --> 02:05:29,040
Speaker 4: guy and he's not even old. But he was the

2354
02:05:29,160 --> 02:05:32,920
Speaker 4: veteran player that ended up standing up saying OK, hey,

2355
02:05:32,960 --> 02:05:35,880
Speaker 4: you guys got to be professionals. And then everything had

2356
02:05:36,040 --> 02:05:39,280
Speaker 4: been unraveling to that point and then completely unraveled, but

2357
02:05:39,440 --> 02:05:43,360
Speaker 4: Memphis did. Whether it starts from the Shams tweet of

2358
02:05:43,400 --> 02:05:46,680
Speaker 4: saying Dylan Brooks is not going to return, whether it

2359
02:05:46,720 --> 02:05:49,840
Speaker 4: be the addition of Marcus Smart or the addition of

2360
02:05:49,920 --> 02:05:54,480
Speaker 4: Derreck Rose. I mean, you have done everything you can

2361
02:05:55,000 --> 02:05:57,920
Speaker 4: to make sure that John Morant succeeds. You've also now

2362
02:05:57,960 --> 02:06:01,720
Speaker 4: given Desmond Baine that mega deal, so you have these

2363
02:06:01,760 --> 02:06:04,920
Speaker 4: pieces in Mike, You're right to have the adult in

2364
02:06:04,960 --> 02:06:07,880
Speaker 4: the room, to have someone who plays with an edge

2365
02:06:08,320 --> 02:06:11,440
Speaker 4: like Marcus Smart does, but doesn't do it in a

2366
02:06:11,480 --> 02:06:16,640
Speaker 4: way that can hamper your team. That's valuable. Look at

2367
02:06:16,640 --> 02:06:20,760
Speaker 4: Boston and when Marcus Smart was there, Look at Grant

2368
02:06:20,800 --> 02:06:24,000
Speaker 4: Williams tried to take on that role. How'd that work

2369
02:06:24,040 --> 02:06:27,280
Speaker 4: out for him? Not too well? It works for Boston,

2370
02:06:27,400 --> 02:06:30,959
Speaker 4: it works for Marcus Smart. Plus he's a magnificent defender

2371
02:06:31,400 --> 02:06:33,800
Speaker 4: and can shoot the ball, so you've got that. Then

2372
02:06:33,840 --> 02:06:35,640
Speaker 4: you bring in Derrick Rose. And this is why I

2373
02:06:35,640 --> 02:06:42,600
Speaker 4: think it's so important is Derek John Morant can't be

2374
02:06:42,880 --> 02:06:47,920
Speaker 4: what Jahn Morant wanted to be around Derek Rose not

2375
02:06:48,120 --> 02:06:51,760
Speaker 4: going to happen. Derek Rose has street cred. Derek Rose

2376
02:06:51,800 --> 02:06:53,880
Speaker 4: also knows what it's like to be a top pick

2377
02:06:53,960 --> 02:06:59,080
Speaker 4: at a young talent with the absolute opposite demeanor of

2378
02:06:59,440 --> 02:07:03,560
Speaker 4: say it Jahn Morant when it comes to maybe handling yourself,

2379
02:07:04,280 --> 02:07:06,520
Speaker 4: just like it was the exact opposite of Lebron James

2380
02:07:06,520 --> 02:07:08,880
Speaker 4: and the guys dancing on the Dwight Howard dancing on

2381
02:07:08,920 --> 02:07:13,680
Speaker 4: the stage at the All Star Game. Derek Rose is

2382
02:07:13,800 --> 02:07:17,480
Speaker 4: that guy. John Morant would love to be Derek Rose,

2383
02:07:17,520 --> 02:07:20,840
Speaker 4: but he's not, and Derek Rose to be in there.

2384
02:07:21,880 --> 02:07:24,120
Speaker 4: John Morant could be better and better than ever and

2385
02:07:24,760 --> 02:07:28,120
Speaker 4: move on. But you need Derek Rose in that locker room.

2386
02:07:28,120 --> 02:07:32,920
Speaker 4: And I listen, I think it's a top a top three.

2387
02:07:33,040 --> 02:07:35,280
Speaker 4: I was gonna say top five, a top three signing

2388
02:07:35,320 --> 02:07:37,960
Speaker 4: this offseason just to have Derek Rose in that locker

2389
02:07:38,040 --> 02:07:40,160
Speaker 4: room because I think Derek Rose can tell Ja Morant

2390
02:07:40,200 --> 02:07:42,480
Speaker 4: things that nobody else can in the NBA.

2391
02:07:42,680 --> 02:07:45,720
Speaker 2: See, I took Derrick Rose and as this news was

2392
02:07:45,760 --> 02:07:49,000
Speaker 2: coming down, and see if you agree with this assessment.

2393
02:07:49,920 --> 02:07:54,600
Speaker 2: Working with Thibodeau, being alongside Tom Thibodeau, watching the way

2394
02:07:54,640 --> 02:07:57,960
Speaker 2: he operates, watching the culture they're trying to build in

2395
02:07:58,040 --> 02:08:00,520
Speaker 2: New York. And I know people hate that word. It's

2396
02:08:00,560 --> 02:08:03,960
Speaker 2: like when synergy was a big thing and started creeping

2397
02:08:03,960 --> 02:08:08,240
Speaker 2: out of MBA programs and into the language and into

2398
02:08:08,640 --> 02:08:12,080
Speaker 2: our discussions here of how you make things work in

2399
02:08:12,160 --> 02:08:16,560
Speaker 2: sports businesses. When you've got myriad platforms between TV, radio

2400
02:08:16,680 --> 02:08:18,600
Speaker 2: and all these different podcasts and all that, you have

2401
02:08:18,640 --> 02:08:21,560
Speaker 2: to make work. Same thing here when you talk about culture,

2402
02:08:21,640 --> 02:08:24,880
Speaker 2: and people mocked heat culture when they would lose a game,

2403
02:08:25,440 --> 02:08:28,720
Speaker 2: right or get blown out, Like, doesn't change what they build.

2404
02:08:30,080 --> 02:08:32,680
Speaker 2: They just ran into a better team. Yes, they're in

2405
02:08:32,760 --> 02:08:36,120
Speaker 2: a place they shouldn't be because of the culture, because

2406
02:08:36,160 --> 02:08:39,080
Speaker 2: of the continuity, because of the trust in each other

2407
02:08:39,160 --> 02:08:41,840
Speaker 2: and all of those things. And yeah that's coach speak,

2408
02:08:41,960 --> 02:08:46,080
Speaker 2: dad speak and maybe a little too rose colored glasses,

2409
02:08:46,120 --> 02:08:46,839
Speaker 2: but it's reality.

2410
02:08:47,200 --> 02:08:47,360
Speaker 4: Right.

2411
02:08:47,400 --> 02:08:50,920
Speaker 2: They overachieved And Derek Rose in New York, a guy who,

2412
02:08:50,960 --> 02:08:54,640
Speaker 2: as you mentioned, he had it all MVP the All

2413
02:08:54,680 --> 02:08:56,720
Speaker 2: Star Game. That's still one of the funniest clips you'll

2414
02:08:56,760 --> 02:09:01,120
Speaker 2: ever see. Yes, but he's a guy that essentially part

2415
02:09:01,160 --> 02:09:04,520
Speaker 2: time player, but more as a coach and bench guy

2416
02:09:04,960 --> 02:09:08,520
Speaker 2: for Tom Thibodeaux. Not unlike Eudonis Haslam was down in

2417
02:09:09,320 --> 02:09:12,400
Speaker 2: the aforementioned heat of was he gonna play a lot

2418
02:09:12,440 --> 02:09:12,880
Speaker 2: of minutes?

2419
02:09:13,000 --> 02:09:13,040
Speaker 6: No?

2420
02:09:13,200 --> 02:09:15,760
Speaker 2: Rose will play more than that. But the point being,

2421
02:09:15,800 --> 02:09:18,320
Speaker 2: you've got a guy that's there to say, hey, cut

2422
02:09:18,360 --> 02:09:20,960
Speaker 2: the nonsense, to get back to work, and you gotta

2423
02:09:21,120 --> 02:09:24,200
Speaker 2: be that bridge between the coaching staff and the rest

2424
02:09:24,240 --> 02:09:26,280
Speaker 2: of the locker room. And for John Morant that was

2425
02:09:26,320 --> 02:09:31,400
Speaker 2: something sorely missing. And for Dylan Brooks someone to grab

2426
02:09:31,480 --> 02:09:33,280
Speaker 2: him by the scruff of the neck and just be like,

2427
02:09:33,440 --> 02:09:35,040
Speaker 2: come on, man, let's just play basketball.

2428
02:09:35,080 --> 02:09:37,600
Speaker 4: I also think though, that John Morant tried to portray,

2429
02:09:38,240 --> 02:09:43,640
Speaker 4: you know, a certain lifestyle, right And Derek Rose, you

2430
02:09:43,680 --> 02:09:45,800
Speaker 4: know you grew up on the South side of Chicago.

2431
02:09:46,560 --> 02:09:49,640
Speaker 4: I don't I don't know exactly where you lived, but

2432
02:09:50,440 --> 02:09:52,360
Speaker 4: I mean south side. It's a tough side.

2433
02:09:52,400 --> 02:09:53,240
Speaker 2: I've seen some stuff.

2434
02:09:53,360 --> 02:09:55,440
Speaker 4: Yes, Yes, Derek Rose.

2435
02:09:55,280 --> 02:09:57,440
Speaker 2: I can count on being shot at as part of

2436
02:09:57,480 --> 02:09:58,160
Speaker 2: my history.

2437
02:09:58,560 --> 02:10:01,120
Speaker 4: I don't know the experience ins of Derek Rose, but

2438
02:10:01,160 --> 02:10:03,240
Speaker 4: I know that Derek Rose, you know, grow up on

2439
02:10:03,240 --> 02:10:05,880
Speaker 4: the South side of Chicago's probably seen some things that

2440
02:10:06,360 --> 02:10:10,720
Speaker 4: you know, the the life that John Morant wanted to live. Well,

2441
02:10:10,840 --> 02:10:13,480
Speaker 4: how about a guy who you know, probably saw some

2442
02:10:13,520 --> 02:10:16,560
Speaker 4: things that other people haven't seen. Sure, and not as

2443
02:10:16,600 --> 02:10:18,680
Speaker 4: about that life, but has seen that life. And it's

2444
02:10:18,800 --> 02:10:23,480
Speaker 4: very very difficult to to fake it around that person.

2445
02:10:24,040 --> 02:10:28,680
Speaker 4: It's it's just to have Derreck Rose was the number

2446
02:10:28,720 --> 02:10:31,440
Speaker 4: one overall pick Jaw was to could have been number

2447
02:10:31,480 --> 02:10:33,560
Speaker 4: one if Zion wasn't in the draft. That is, so

2448
02:10:33,600 --> 02:10:38,160
Speaker 4: there's there, there's there's similarities, and then there are things

2449
02:10:38,160 --> 02:10:40,160
Speaker 4: that are different. But just to have Derreck Rose be

2450
02:10:40,280 --> 02:10:45,120
Speaker 4: who Derek Rose is. Nobody's messing with Derek Rose, No,

2451
02:10:45,120 --> 02:10:49,120
Speaker 4: no one is. And Jahn Morant doing his waving a

2452
02:10:49,200 --> 02:10:52,320
Speaker 4: gun on ig going to a strip club like that

2453
02:10:52,440 --> 02:10:55,200
Speaker 4: stuff is not going to fly. It's not gonna fly

2454
02:10:55,240 --> 02:10:57,360
Speaker 4: with Marcus Smart and it's definitely not gonna fly with

2455
02:10:57,440 --> 02:10:58,080
Speaker 4: Derek Rose.

2456
02:10:58,360 --> 02:11:01,600
Speaker 2: Veteran leadership coming to a lot room near you. Because

2457
02:11:01,680 --> 02:11:06,160
Speaker 2: you're trying to emulate the winning cultures, the winning programs

2458
02:11:06,600 --> 02:11:08,920
Speaker 2: and to try to bring some sense of stability. Then

2459
02:11:09,000 --> 02:11:13,160
Speaker 2: a fantastic season that got turned upside down by what

2460
02:11:13,320 --> 02:11:15,800
Speaker 2: was going on with Moran. Now, would they have enough

2461
02:11:16,120 --> 02:11:20,080
Speaker 2: to finish the job? Probably not, didn't have enough bigs

2462
02:11:20,080 --> 02:11:23,600
Speaker 2: to compete with Denver when it's all said, but would

2463
02:11:23,640 --> 02:11:27,960
Speaker 2: have liked to see that fight with everybody at full strength,

2464
02:11:28,040 --> 02:11:32,200
Speaker 2: fully committed, fully in as you go reminder, we're coming

02:11:37,920 --> 02:11:40,840
Speaker 2: I You fill the sports calendar, and we fill it

2468
02:11:40,880 --> 02:11:44,600
Speaker 2: with lots of sports things. I sort and buy, sell

2469
02:11:44,840 --> 02:11:47,560
Speaker 2: a little bit of sports memorabilia and trading cards. Way

2470
02:11:47,560 --> 02:11:49,920
Speaker 2: too many trading cards. Time to do a big sell

2471
02:11:49,960 --> 02:11:53,560
Speaker 2: off of that and do a Swedish death cleaning, as

2472
02:11:53,600 --> 02:11:56,840
Speaker 2: it were. But there are some things that you know

2473
02:11:57,040 --> 02:11:58,840
Speaker 2: I had spent some time on, and I know you

2474
02:11:59,240 --> 02:12:03,120
Speaker 2: said you did too. We're gonna talk about things that. Well,

2475
02:12:03,200 --> 02:12:05,400
Speaker 2: ring the bell of shame is really what it comes

2476

Speaker 2: down to. As we continue here next on Fox Sports Radio, Hey,

2477
02:12:08,720 --> 02:12:12,480
Speaker 2: welcome back in It's Fox Sports our radios. Fox Sports Sunday,

2480
02:12:19,480 --> 02:12:21,800
Speaker 2: giving us a few minutes for your holiday weekend on

2481
02:12:21,880 --> 02:12:24,520
Speaker 2: the highways and byways. Be careful, be kind to each other,

2482
02:12:24,600 --> 02:12:27,680
Speaker 2: be kind to the family, and even when you decide

2483
02:12:27,720 --> 02:12:30,440
Speaker 2: you need a break, you know, head inside, go find

2484
02:12:30,440 --> 02:12:32,360
Speaker 2: a little bit of golf that's gonna be on TV.

2485
02:12:32,920 --> 02:12:37,840
Speaker 2: Maybe a little Major League Baseball men's soccer team plays

2486
02:12:37,840 --> 02:12:39,280
Speaker 2: a little bit later on. I mean, you got a

2487
02:12:39,320 --> 02:12:40,280
Speaker 2: lot of opportunities.

2488
02:12:40,560 --> 02:12:43,240
Speaker 4: US Senior Open. That's where my eyes are fused.

2489
02:12:44,720 --> 02:12:47,000
Speaker 2: So that's it, right, It's one of the events that

2490
02:12:47,080 --> 02:12:50,520
Speaker 2: we have and we find our ways to consume it,

2491
02:12:50,560 --> 02:12:53,480
Speaker 2: and certainly for you and I during the course of

2492
02:12:53,520 --> 02:12:57,160
Speaker 2: the week. You know, some call it the slow down,

2493
02:12:57,880 --> 02:13:01,080
Speaker 2: the easy season of vacation time in our business. Oftentimes

2494
02:13:01,080 --> 02:13:03,360
Speaker 2: for me, this week, I'm gonna miss a few days.

2495
02:13:03,360 --> 02:13:06,440
Speaker 2: It just happens to coincide with the fact that my

2496
02:13:06,520 --> 02:13:09,280
Speaker 2: daughter's still alive in a national soccer thing, so I

2497
02:13:09,320 --> 02:13:12,440
Speaker 2: need to disappear and be dad for a few days.

2498
02:13:12,440 --> 02:13:15,520
Speaker 2: It's not because there's a dearth of sports topics to

2499
02:13:15,560 --> 02:13:18,080
Speaker 2: talk about. I mean, NBA free agency we can do

2500
02:13:18,080 --> 02:13:22,240
Speaker 2: add nauseam. What's a due team to team, player to player. Look,

2501
02:13:22,320 --> 02:13:24,640
Speaker 2: some teams are more equal than others, right, Because I

2502
02:13:24,680 --> 02:13:28,560
Speaker 2: see the lamentation from people already, Oh, you're gonna be exhausted,

2503
02:13:28,760 --> 02:13:32,120
Speaker 2: not just me, but our network about the Lakers, like, yeah,

2504
02:13:32,120 --> 02:13:36,160
Speaker 2: they move the needle Lebron James. People have made multi

2505
02:13:36,280 --> 02:13:39,520
Speaker 2: million dollar careers out of really only talking about Lebron

2506
02:13:39,600 --> 02:13:43,960
Speaker 2: James carrying water for clutch sports in their social media

2507
02:13:44,240 --> 02:13:47,240
Speaker 2: and on their media jobs what have you. Yes, it works.

2508
02:13:47,400 --> 02:13:50,720
Speaker 2: And the Lakers when they're good, they're interesting. When they're bad,

2509
02:13:50,720 --> 02:13:54,360
Speaker 2: they're interesting when they're mediocre. We love to throw slings

2510
02:13:54,360 --> 02:13:56,840
Speaker 2: and arrows at them just the same. It's what they do.

2511
02:13:56,920 --> 02:13:59,760
Speaker 2: It's like the Cowboys, like the Yankees whatever. I mean,

2512
02:14:00,120 --> 02:14:03,360
Speaker 2: part of the lexicon, and it's something that everybody comes together.

2513
02:14:03,560 --> 02:14:06,760
Speaker 2: You're either a fan or you hate it. Not a

2514
02:14:06,800 --> 02:14:10,200
Speaker 2: whole lot of indifference when it comes to these big brands,

2515
02:14:10,400 --> 02:14:12,440
Speaker 2: because you're either tired of hearing people talking about but

2516
02:14:12,480 --> 02:14:15,040
Speaker 2: you still lean in to hear what people are saying,

2517
02:14:15,360 --> 02:14:17,880
Speaker 2: or if you're a fan of the squad, you want

2518
02:14:17,880 --> 02:14:20,680
Speaker 2: to do that as well. So sorry for those fans

2519
02:14:20,720 --> 02:14:23,720
Speaker 2: of the Toronto Raptors and other things. Now for myself,

2520
02:14:23,760 --> 02:14:27,320
Speaker 2: you know you sent, as we exchange notes ahead of

2521
02:14:27,320 --> 02:14:29,400
Speaker 2: the show, you had a number of things this week

2522
02:14:29,680 --> 02:14:33,160
Speaker 2: in your fandom that you were kind of questioning. It's like,

2523
02:14:33,160 --> 02:14:36,240
Speaker 2: all right, use of my time and how I did it,

2524
02:14:36,320 --> 02:14:39,040
Speaker 2: and you know, kind of taking yourself to the carpet.

2525
02:14:39,240 --> 02:14:41,360
Speaker 2: For me, I spent a lot of time sitting in

2526
02:14:41,400 --> 02:14:46,160
Speaker 2: a Barnes and Noble looking through preview magazines for stories

2527
02:14:46,160 --> 02:14:49,280
Speaker 2: that we had covered here on Fox Sports Sunday months ago.

2528
02:14:49,440 --> 02:14:51,440
Speaker 2: But now they're in print, so they're new and they're

2529
02:14:51,480 --> 02:14:53,960
Speaker 2: shiny again. And I bought my Phil steelebook We're gonna

2530
02:14:53,960 --> 02:14:55,800
Speaker 2: work to get fill on the show in a couple

2531
02:14:55,800 --> 02:14:59,200
Speaker 2: of weeks, three hundred and fifty pages of really small

2532
02:14:59,240 --> 02:15:02,919
Speaker 2: fonts and an answer key that I showed my daughters.

2533
02:15:04,120 --> 02:15:06,800
Speaker 4: Readers, Ready, yeah, to read this thing.

2534
02:15:07,080 --> 02:15:12,560
Speaker 2: There's a grid of acronyms and abbreviations that's even smaller

2535
02:15:12,600 --> 02:15:15,400
Speaker 2: than the normal font to try to tell you what

2536
02:15:15,440 --> 02:15:17,240
Speaker 2: you're actually reading on each page.

2537
02:15:17,520 --> 02:15:18,800
Speaker 3: So I've got to study that.

2538
02:15:18,960 --> 02:15:21,400
Speaker 2: Memorize that, and then I can start to go to

2539
02:15:21,440 --> 02:15:22,720
Speaker 2: work on my light Summer Reach.

2540
02:15:22,760 --> 02:15:24,400
Speaker 4: If I put it any closer, there's no way I'd

2541
02:15:24,440 --> 02:15:26,160
Speaker 4: see it. I had to keep it far away just

2542
02:15:26,200 --> 02:15:28,240
Speaker 4: to be able to read some of that. It's a

2543
02:15:28,240 --> 02:15:30,400
Speaker 4: great time of year, but it is also a top

2544
02:15:30,440 --> 02:15:33,560
Speaker 4: of year mic where we've got the July fourth holiday

2545
02:15:33,600 --> 02:15:36,000
Speaker 4: coming up, And while it's not the middle of summer,

2546
02:15:36,040 --> 02:15:38,880
Speaker 4: because it's actually the beginning of summer, summer just started

2547
02:15:38,880 --> 02:15:42,160
Speaker 4: a week or so ago, it does feel like it

2548
02:15:42,240 --> 02:15:45,280
Speaker 4: is a in school's probably in some places probably only

2549
02:15:45,360 --> 02:15:48,720
Speaker 4: let out three weeks ago, like mid June. Other places

2550
02:15:48,720 --> 02:15:50,320
Speaker 4: it's been a little bit more and you're going to

2551
02:15:50,360 --> 02:15:54,200
Speaker 4: maybe be starting in early to mid August. But it's

2552
02:15:54,240 --> 02:15:58,600
Speaker 4: a good way to kind of take a temperature reading

2553
02:15:58,640 --> 02:16:03,320
Speaker 4: of where we are, because, honestly, once Damian Lillard gets traded,

2554
02:16:03,640 --> 02:16:07,520
Speaker 4: we're just gonna have NBA Summer League going on, and

2555
02:16:08,000 --> 02:16:10,240
Speaker 4: there's going to be the All Star Game next week

2556
02:16:10,240 --> 02:16:12,560
Speaker 4: in the home Run Derby, and it's still a week

2557
02:16:12,640 --> 02:16:16,000
Speaker 4: or two out from the NFL training camps opening. We're

2558
02:16:16,080 --> 02:16:20,440
Speaker 4: kind of getting into that dog days summer sort of feel.

2559
02:16:20,560 --> 02:16:22,760
Speaker 4: So there have been some things that have gone on lately,

2560
02:16:22,800 --> 02:16:26,960
Speaker 4: Mike that I'm not necessarily proud of, things that I'm

2561
02:16:27,040 --> 02:16:29,880
Speaker 4: kind of ashamed of that I've done over these last

2562
02:16:29,960 --> 02:16:33,080
Speaker 4: couple of days, because it just leads to a sad

2563
02:16:33,160 --> 02:16:36,400
Speaker 4: existence as a sports fan. So if you would like

2564
02:16:36,440 --> 02:16:40,759
Speaker 4: any of the others to chime in, Ryan Bursa Iosam

2565
02:16:41,000 --> 02:16:44,080
Speaker 4: Isaac Lohankron, things I've done this week that I'm kind

2566
02:16:44,120 --> 02:16:47,840
Speaker 4: of ashamed of. Number one happened on Thursday. I recorded

2567
02:16:47,879 --> 02:16:53,119
Speaker 4: not one, but two separate airings of the US Senior Open.

2568
02:16:53,520 --> 02:16:56,320
Speaker 4: They had a window at nine am. There was like

2569
02:16:56,440 --> 02:16:58,760
Speaker 4: nine thirty to eleven thirty something like nine to eleven,

2570
02:16:59,200 --> 02:17:01,640
Speaker 4: and then they had one three to five different players.

2571
02:17:01,720 --> 02:17:05,160
Speaker 4: Wasn't the same one? But even if I had recorded

2572
02:17:05,240 --> 02:17:07,840
Speaker 4: all four hours, there was no way I was going

2573
02:17:07,920 --> 02:17:10,759
Speaker 4: to be able to watch all four of those hours

2574
02:17:10,800 --> 02:17:13,520
Speaker 4: in the time by the the second round started the

2575
02:17:13,560 --> 02:17:17,000
Speaker 4: next day. So I could have just recorded the three

2576
02:17:17,040 --> 02:17:18,600
Speaker 4: to five and have been good with it because I

2577
02:17:18,600 --> 02:17:21,480
Speaker 4: would have known where everybody stood. But no. I recorded

2578
02:17:22,240 --> 02:17:25,840
Speaker 4: two separate airings of the US Senior Open on Thursday

2579
02:17:25,840 --> 02:17:27,720
Speaker 4: on the Golf Channel, and they were the first round.

2580
02:17:27,840 --> 02:17:29,199
Speaker 2: Did you go back and watch them?

2581
02:17:29,320 --> 02:17:32,720
Speaker 4: I watched the last three to five, okay, So I

2582
02:17:32,760 --> 02:17:35,280
Speaker 4: did not go and check out the entirety of the

2583
02:17:35,720 --> 02:17:37,160
Speaker 4: nine o'clock to eleven one.

2584
02:17:37,280 --> 02:17:39,280
Speaker 2: Okay, but to be fair, you only hit two buttons

2585
02:17:39,280 --> 02:17:41,680
Speaker 2: to do that, so you're, oh, just.

2586
02:17:41,640 --> 02:17:45,760
Speaker 4: Took up four hours on the on the DVR. Now

2587
02:17:45,879 --> 02:17:47,880
Speaker 4: all cleared because we're way past that.

2588
02:17:48,000 --> 02:17:48,320
Speaker 3: Okay.

2589
02:17:48,920 --> 02:17:56,359
Speaker 4: I looked at bracketology last night. Whacketology why for college basketball?

2590
02:17:57,040 --> 02:18:00,840
Speaker 4: Like for college Buckety Palm had a CBS Sports article

2591
02:18:01,480 --> 02:18:06,200
Speaker 4: twenty twenty four bracketology, and then Mike I got ticked

2592
02:18:06,240 --> 02:18:09,880
Speaker 4: because I'm like, Ohio State last one and they're from that,

2593
02:18:09,879 --> 02:18:12,320
Speaker 4: I ain't gonna be any good. But like, what, oh

2594
02:18:12,320 --> 02:18:15,040
Speaker 4: you got that playing Memphis in Dayton on Tuesday? Like

2595
02:18:15,120 --> 02:18:16,960
Speaker 4: what is your problem? And then I looked at it.

2596
02:18:17,000 --> 02:18:20,280
Speaker 4: I'm like, it's July first. But I looked at bracketology

2597
02:18:20,640 --> 02:18:21,240
Speaker 4: last night.

2598
02:18:21,400 --> 02:18:21,840
Speaker 3: Okay.

2599
02:18:23,000 --> 02:18:26,720
Speaker 4: I I've made myself three rope beer root beer floats

2600
02:18:26,720 --> 02:18:27,840
Speaker 4: in the last four days.

2601
02:18:28,240 --> 02:18:31,000
Speaker 2: There's nothing wrong with that. You find you found the

2602
02:18:31,000 --> 02:18:33,720
Speaker 2: formula that worked for you. So you went back to

2603
02:18:33,760 --> 02:18:35,879
Speaker 2: the well, we all need comfort stuff.

2604
02:18:35,959 --> 02:18:38,320
Speaker 4: Dan, we bought ice cream a couple of weeks ago

2605
02:18:38,520 --> 02:18:40,959
Speaker 4: and never used it. I was at the grocery store

2606
02:18:41,040 --> 02:18:45,800
Speaker 4: and a six pack of A and W was on sale. Wow,

2607
02:18:47,120 --> 02:18:51,440
Speaker 4: And I'm like why not? Yes three? Last night, had one,

2608
02:18:51,600 --> 02:18:54,560
Speaker 4: didn't have one Friday, had one Thursday as I was

2609
02:18:54,600 --> 02:18:58,160
Speaker 4: watching the first round of the US Open, and had

2610
02:18:58,200 --> 02:19:03,040
Speaker 4: one Wednesday. Seventy five percent of my days over the

2611
02:19:03,120 --> 02:19:06,440
Speaker 4: last week, Mike have consisted of having a root beer float.

2612
02:19:06,720 --> 02:19:07,520
Speaker 3: I kind of dig that.

2613
02:19:08,520 --> 02:19:14,360
Speaker 4: And then finally, I also watched the Yankees Cardinals box

2614
02:19:14,400 --> 02:19:17,560
Speaker 4: score from the third inning on yesterday because of my

2615
02:19:17,680 --> 02:19:20,959
Speaker 4: survivor pool that I'm in. Thank goodness, it was game

2616
02:19:21,000 --> 02:19:23,000
Speaker 4: two because that was the one that the Yankees won

2617
02:19:23,040 --> 02:19:26,080
Speaker 4: and I was able to advance. But it was a

2618
02:19:26,240 --> 02:19:29,840
Speaker 4: three to one game in the third, and I watched ball,

2619
02:19:30,760 --> 02:19:37,560
Speaker 4: strike strike, ball, What is taking so long? What is

2620
02:19:37,640 --> 02:19:42,840
Speaker 4: happening in play? Like? That's what it was. Yankees ended

2621
02:19:42,920 --> 02:19:47,200
Speaker 4: up winning. But I'm not proud of any of those things.

2622
02:19:47,280 --> 02:19:50,920
Speaker 4: The Roopper floats, the bracketology, none of that, I'm not

2623
02:19:50,959 --> 02:19:51,560
Speaker 4: too proud of.

2624
02:19:51,840 --> 02:19:55,000
Speaker 2: I kind of dig the root beer float one. The bracketology.

2625
02:19:55,040 --> 02:19:57,560
Speaker 2: That's got me a little worried for both you and

2626
02:19:57,600 --> 02:19:58,840
Speaker 2: for our buddy Jerry Palm.

2627
02:19:59,000 --> 02:20:01,160
Speaker 4: Oh, I'll let you know. Northwestern is.

2628
02:20:03,440 --> 02:20:07,320
Speaker 2: Hey, hey boo booie, Yes, let's make it happen.

2629
02:20:08,080 --> 02:20:10,480
Speaker 4: Oh man, do you have any Yeah, I'm trying.

2630
02:20:10,240 --> 02:20:11,080
Speaker 3: To think of the other thing.

2631
02:20:11,120 --> 02:20:14,519
Speaker 2: I mean, yesterday, right, beautiful day here in southern California.

2632
02:20:15,120 --> 02:20:18,360
Speaker 2: Everybody knows I'm a big fan of the pop culture world,

2633
02:20:18,400 --> 02:20:21,280
Speaker 2: but I'm still a huge wrestling fan. I'm still trying

2634
02:20:21,280 --> 02:20:24,240
Speaker 2: to figure out how to monetize it. Future meetings to

2635
02:20:24,320 --> 02:20:28,080
Speaker 2: be had, maybe maybe a podcast or random ranting to

2636
02:20:28,120 --> 02:20:31,640
Speaker 2: come in short order. But Money in the Bank was

2637
02:20:31,760 --> 02:20:36,119
Speaker 2: live from London, and I have the Peacock subscription. I've

2638
02:20:36,160 --> 02:20:38,360
Speaker 2: got two kids, I've got subscriptions to everything you need

2639
02:20:38,400 --> 02:20:41,000
Speaker 2: a subscription. I got a subscription, just like a guy

2640
02:20:41,000 --> 02:20:44,720
Speaker 2: that used to say, who needs to But this was

2641
02:20:44,760 --> 02:20:47,440
Speaker 2: going to be available as soon as it's done. As

2642
02:20:47,440 --> 02:20:49,360
Speaker 2: soon as it's done, and I know this, I've seen

2643
02:20:49,400 --> 02:20:52,879
Speaker 2: this before. As soon as it's done, pay per view

2644
02:20:52,920 --> 02:20:54,200
Speaker 2: is going to start over. You can watch it.

2645
02:20:54,560 --> 02:20:55,960
Speaker 3: Right. What did I do?

2646
02:20:56,360 --> 02:20:59,640
Speaker 2: Nah, it's nude West Coast day off. I had nowhere,

2647
02:20:59,640 --> 02:21:02,560
Speaker 2: I had to me, made a cup of coffee and

2648
02:21:02,560 --> 02:21:04,920
Speaker 2: what did I do? I sat and watched it live.

2649
02:21:05,720 --> 02:21:08,200
Speaker 2: I could have gone to the beach, I could have

2650
02:21:08,280 --> 02:21:10,960
Speaker 2: gone for a walk, done all those things, and then

2651
02:21:11,000 --> 02:21:13,160
Speaker 2: at night sat and watched Money in the Bank you

2652
02:21:13,160 --> 02:21:14,120
Speaker 2: know what, I said, to hell with it.

2653
02:21:14,280 --> 02:21:15,039
Speaker 3: I need it live.

2654
02:21:15,280 --> 02:21:18,199
Speaker 2: And the thing that kills me is that I couldn't

2655
02:21:18,240 --> 02:21:21,320
Speaker 2: even have it spoiled for me on Twitter because Twitter

2656
02:21:21,440 --> 02:21:25,160
Speaker 2: was a bucket busted because of my rate limit was exceeded.

2657
02:21:25,480 --> 02:21:28,640
Speaker 2: So I didn't wouldn't have known John Cena showed up.

2658
02:21:28,840 --> 02:21:30,039
Speaker 3: I wouldn't have known.

2659
02:21:29,840 --> 02:21:32,560
Speaker 2: That the USOS took down Roman raids, all of those

2660
02:21:32,600 --> 02:21:37,080
Speaker 2: things if I'd gone for a walk instead sloth one out.

2661
02:21:37,120 --> 02:21:39,880
Speaker 2: I eventually got on my stepper and I still got

2662
02:21:39,879 --> 02:21:42,959
Speaker 2: a workout in, but it was one of those things

2663
02:21:42,959 --> 02:21:46,600
Speaker 2: where it was like I wasted a beautiful, glorious no

2664
02:21:47,120 --> 02:21:49,680
Speaker 2: June gloom because we moved to July, so that doesn't

2665
02:21:49,680 --> 02:21:51,880
Speaker 2: exist anymore, that kind of day.

2666
02:21:51,959 --> 02:21:54,040
Speaker 4: Well, I've got good news for you, Mike. I've got

2667
02:21:54,120 --> 02:21:56,760
Speaker 4: really good news for you, Donny, as bad as it

2668
02:21:56,840 --> 02:22:00,440
Speaker 4: was for you yesterday. Northwestern is projected it as a

2669
02:22:00,600 --> 02:22:04,920
Speaker 4: nine seed. They will face Mississippi State in first and

2670
02:22:05,240 --> 02:22:08,680
Speaker 4: in a first round game in Charlotte where the winner

2671
02:22:08,720 --> 02:22:12,640
Speaker 4: will face the winner of the Duke Howard game. Is

2672
02:22:12,959 --> 02:22:15,280
Speaker 4: that is what Brackett High I like. So the Western

2673
02:22:15,360 --> 02:22:16,080
Speaker 4: has made the break.

2674
02:22:16,600 --> 02:22:18,440
Speaker 2: Let's bring in the crew here for a minute. Before

2675
02:22:18,480 --> 02:22:19,960

2677
02:22:22,760 --> 02:22:24,560

Speaker 6: you heard about this? The Immaculate Grid is like a website.

2686
02:22:57,200 --> 02:22:59,160
Speaker 6: It kind of like wordle where it's a daily game,

2687
02:22:59,280 --> 02:23:03,200
Speaker 6: okay on the internet, it's it's for baseball. So it's

2688
02:23:03,200 --> 02:23:05,280
Speaker 6: a it's a grid. You have nine squares, you have

2689
02:23:05,520 --> 02:23:10,359
Speaker 6: you have three teams or award designations on one side.

2690
02:23:10,440 --> 02:23:12,160
Speaker 6: On the other so you have to like, name name

2692
02:23:14,920 --> 02:23:18,840
Speaker 6: Huge on TikTok. Yes, yes, just like that. So not

2693
02:23:18,920 --> 02:23:21,840
Speaker 6: only do I, of course, being a baseball nerd. I

2694
02:23:21,959 --> 02:23:25,200
Speaker 6: enjoy this game, but I I want my answers to

2695
02:23:25,200 --> 02:23:28,440
Speaker 6: be unique, you know, like if it's if it's you know,

Speaker 6: go up Greg Maddox, you know, I want to I

2698
02:23:32,400 --> 02:23:34,920
Speaker 6: want to try to get to try to fire off.

2699
02:23:34,760 --> 02:23:37,920
Speaker 4: Some war and spawn or something. Yeah, it's gonna say,

2700
02:23:38,600 --> 02:23:42,440
Speaker 4: hid support of you. It's tough to find the hidden gem.

2701
02:23:42,480 --> 02:23:44,200
Speaker 4: Who's won three hundred games exactly.

2702
02:23:44,280 --> 02:23:46,680
Speaker 2: Yes, not a lot of those in Major League Baseball,

2703
02:23:46,720 --> 02:23:52,080
Speaker 2: as we've chronicled well with the hit thresholds and stuff reaching.

2704
02:23:52,280 --> 02:23:54,840
Speaker 6: I also want to hit the immaculate. I want I

2705
02:23:54,879 --> 02:23:56,520
Speaker 6: want to go nine for nine. You only have nine

2706
02:23:56,560 --> 02:23:59,119
Speaker 6: guesses and nine spots. You want to hit the immaculate.

2707
02:24:00,600 --> 02:24:04,360
Speaker 6: The other day it was Raise and and Rookie of

2708
02:24:04,360 --> 02:24:07,720

2709
02:24:07,760 --> 02:24:10,080
Speaker 6: Deli won, and so I put Roco ball. Deli was

2710
02:24:10,120 --> 02:24:13,200
Speaker 6: my first guest. No, No, he finished third that year

2711
02:24:13,240 --> 02:24:15,680
Speaker 6: on Helboroa won Rookie of the Year that year. And

2712
02:24:15,760 --> 02:24:18,280
Speaker 6: I got so mad at myself and I'm like, why

2713
02:24:18,320 --> 02:24:19,760
Speaker 6: does this Why does this matter?

2714
02:24:20,120 --> 02:24:22,959
Speaker 2: Because you wanted to use the name of Rocky Rocco

2715
02:24:23,080 --> 02:24:24,920
Speaker 2: ball Deli for greatness.

2716
02:24:25,800 --> 02:24:26,400
Speaker 3: I love it.

2717
02:24:26,680 --> 02:24:30,640
Speaker 6: Yeah, so I get I get overly involved and overly

2718
02:24:30,680 --> 02:24:32,520
Speaker 6: emotional if I don't hit the immaculate.

2719
02:24:32,600 --> 02:24:34,359
Speaker 4: Did Evan Mongoria win a Rookie.

2720
02:24:34,200 --> 02:24:35,040
Speaker 3: Of the Year did Yes?

2721
02:24:35,360 --> 02:24:37,840
Speaker 6: Yes, Jeremy Hellixen would have been if you wanted to. Really,

2722
02:24:37,959 --> 02:24:40,280
Speaker 6: that's a griddle needle that that would have been your name.

2723
02:24:40,360 --> 02:24:41,160
Speaker 3: But nicely done.

2724
02:24:41,320 --> 02:24:45,279
Speaker 2: You talked about your baseball nerd him the podcasting.

2725
02:24:45,879 --> 02:24:47,760
Speaker 4: Yes, yes, Swing Shift with Ryan and Bo.

2726
02:24:48,200 --> 02:24:48,640
Speaker 3: There you go.

2727
02:24:49,040 --> 02:24:53,160
Speaker 4: Did you also change the settings on your fantasy football

2728
02:24:53,200 --> 02:24:57,720
Speaker 4: site which changed all the work you did that previous

2729
02:24:57,800 --> 02:24:59,400
Speaker 4: hour like I did, and then I had to do

2730
02:24:59,440 --> 02:25:03,199
Speaker 4: it all over again. No? No, yes, that was another

2731
02:25:03,240 --> 02:25:04,039
Speaker 4: one that sucks.

2732
02:25:04,240 --> 02:25:06,400
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, that's why I don't run leagues.

2733
02:25:07,160 --> 02:25:07,680
Speaker 3: Not on me.

2734
02:25:09,879 --> 02:25:11,920
Speaker 4: Wait, why is the draft door? I just changed it?

2735
02:25:12,000 --> 02:25:13,000
Speaker 4: Oh that's why.

2736
02:25:13,520 --> 02:25:17,200
Speaker 2: I'm now number one. It's my payment for running league

2737
02:25:17,200 --> 02:25:20,240
Speaker 2: Iowa Sam. Any shame this week other than whatever you

2738
02:25:20,280 --> 02:25:21,600
Speaker 2: looked up in Iowa history?

2739
02:25:22,120 --> 02:25:24,800
Speaker 8: Honestly, nothing reports this week. I do plenty of shameful

2740
02:25:24,800 --> 02:25:26,600
Speaker 8: things every week, but nothing sports related.

2741
02:25:26,640 --> 02:25:29,400
Speaker 2: So on it is Sunday. You got any confessionals you.

2742
02:25:29,360 --> 02:25:32,400
Speaker 8: Want to know no, I just listen to I don't know.

2743
02:25:32,440 --> 02:25:34,440
Speaker 8: I'm just kind of biding my time. I guess that's

2744
02:25:34,440 --> 02:25:38,520
Speaker 8: shameful in its own right now, you're just getting nicely.

2745
02:25:38,680 --> 02:25:41,000
Speaker 8: That is true, you know, And so I'm just I'm

2746
02:25:41,040 --> 02:25:43,800
Speaker 8: just biding my time until Iowa football arrives.

2747
02:25:43,879 --> 02:25:46,480
Speaker 2: Sometimes you need to abide, like you're the dude just

2748
02:25:46,480 --> 02:25:49,520
Speaker 2: about Isaac Low and Crown over there in between your

2749
02:25:49,760 --> 02:25:53,320
Speaker 2: Steve Hartman ramblings. Do you do you have any shame

2750
02:25:53,400 --> 02:25:56,400
Speaker 2: from your sports world of things you spent time or

2751
02:25:56,440 --> 02:25:58,440
Speaker 2: effort on that now, vex you.

2752
02:25:59,040 --> 02:26:03,320
Speaker 5: It was actually not just this week, it was this morning. However,

2753
02:26:03,640 --> 02:26:08,600
Speaker 5: I must blame our beloved colleague Dan Byer, because earlier

2754
02:26:08,640 --> 02:26:13,439
Speaker 5: today he made reference to a Brady Bunch basketball episode

2755
02:26:13,480 --> 02:26:17,800
Speaker 5: when they're playing in the driveway, and that reference, over

2756
02:26:17,840 --> 02:26:21,640
Speaker 5: the last hour or so has forced me down the

2757
02:26:21,840 --> 02:26:26,000
Speaker 5: Brady Bunch sports rabbit hole looking for all the sports

2758
02:26:26,080 --> 02:26:29,959
Speaker 5: related horrible scenes in the Brady Bunch, including this one,

2759
02:26:30,120 --> 02:26:34,480
Speaker 5: also a basketball scene. These are the boys playing in

2760
02:26:34,600 --> 02:26:37,720
Speaker 5: their room and disaster is about to strike.

2761
02:26:38,120 --> 02:26:39,920
Speaker 2: Hey, come on, you guys, just play free throws in

2762
02:26:39,920 --> 02:26:40,680
Speaker 2: the waste basket.

2763
02:26:42,800 --> 02:26:44,000
Speaker 3: We did are not hung it?

2764
02:26:44,160 --> 02:26:45,080
Speaker 5: Yeah, I wish you won't.

2765
02:26:45,120 --> 02:26:45,720
Speaker 4: Nobody's home.

2766
02:26:49,959 --> 02:26:59,080
Speaker 3: Brady goes for shot Mom's favorite face.

2767
02:27:00,160 --> 02:27:03,520
Speaker 4: So Mom always says, don't play ball in the house.

2768
02:27:04,400 --> 02:27:05,280
Speaker 3: It's good advice.

2769
02:27:05,360 --> 02:27:09,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, the waste paper basket was like thirteen inches in

2770
02:27:09,920 --> 02:27:13,080
Speaker 4: dire hears. If the basketball was twelve inches.

2771
02:27:12,800 --> 02:27:15,240
Speaker 2: They were practicing for future Carnie games.

2772
02:27:15,879 --> 02:27:20,200
Speaker 4: Steph Curry couldn't have made it yet. Peter thinks he's

2773
02:27:20,320 --> 02:27:24,880
Speaker 4: Kareem and does a sky hook over his head and

2774
02:27:24,920 --> 02:27:28,920
Speaker 4: the ball goes fly. There's no way that a champion.

2775
02:27:28,640 --> 02:27:31,800
Speaker 3: And it misses by six feet. I'm not exaggerating, and

2776
02:27:31,840 --> 02:27:33,160
Speaker 3: missed by six feets.

2777
02:27:33,320 --> 02:27:35,640
Speaker 2: You've never tried a skyhook and missed terribly.

2778
02:27:36,200 --> 02:27:36,600
Speaker 1: Not.

2779
02:27:37,959 --> 02:27:40,320
Speaker 5: I haven't missed a five foot hook shot by six

2780
02:27:40,360 --> 02:27:41,400
Speaker 5: feet like Peter did.

2781
02:27:41,520 --> 02:27:45,360
Speaker 4: My goodness. How about the time where Bobby jumped thirty

2782
02:27:45,360 --> 02:27:46,960
Speaker 4: two feet in the air to catch that pass from

2783
02:27:47,040 --> 02:27:54,360
Speaker 4: Joe Namath. That was part of the joke. Great spin memories.

2784
02:27:53,120 --> 02:27:55,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's there's so many great ones in our we'll

2785
02:27:55,920 --> 02:27:59,200
Speaker 2: do that maybe as a the summer continues. Some of

2786
02:27:59,280 --> 02:28:02,320
Speaker 2: the great televison moments related to how they tried to

2787
02:28:02,440 --> 02:28:06,320
Speaker 2: jam sports and we did the Lebron James Teenwolf breakdown

2788
02:28:06,360 --> 02:28:07,320
Speaker 2: earlier for those that.

2789
02:28:07,480 --> 02:28:11,880
Speaker 4: Greg was the starting running back, bruised his ribs and

2790
02:28:11,920 --> 02:28:15,400
Speaker 4: then became team photographer. Like this was like this.

2791
02:28:15,440 --> 02:28:17,520
Speaker 3: Was he got the shot though? Was he in bounds

2792
02:28:17,600 --> 02:28:20,800
Speaker 3: or was he not? Instant recay he did?

2793
02:28:21,680 --> 02:28:24,000
Speaker 2: I ran this over to the official.

2794
02:28:24,200 --> 02:28:28,520
Speaker 4: There was a Calvin Benjamin, remember the Calvin Benjamin controversial catch. Sure,

2795
02:28:29,120 --> 02:28:32,080
Speaker 4: I used the still photo that Greg and Mike blew

2796
02:28:32,160 --> 02:28:34,680
Speaker 4: up from forty yards away, yet they could get in

2797
02:28:34,720 --> 02:28:36,959
Speaker 4: great detail if the foot was in bounds, and I

2798
02:28:37,000 --> 02:28:40,160
Speaker 4: put it up on Twitter, I'm like, yep, Calvin Benjamin's

2799
02:28:40,160 --> 02:28:42,879
Speaker 4: foot was in and people are like see yeah, see,

2800
02:28:43,760 --> 02:28:44,520
Speaker 4: like there is.

2801
02:28:44,520 --> 02:28:47,360
Speaker 2: Well but not everybody in the Twitter verse gets a

2802
02:28:48,320 --> 02:28:51,160
Speaker 2: your your sense of history in the Brady Bunch.

2803
02:28:51,480 --> 02:28:54,119
Speaker 4: And in that episode of The Brady Bunch in that picture,

2804
02:28:54,400 --> 02:28:57,360
Speaker 4: there wasn't a defender within forty yards of this world received.

2805
02:28:57,400 --> 02:28:59,440
Speaker 4: This is one of the worst throws and so this

2806
02:28:59,440 --> 02:29:01,600
Speaker 4: goes a lot feel Lebron James free throw.

2807
02:29:02,520 --> 02:29:06,119
Speaker 2: So many other things going on that it's not really

2808
02:29:06,320 --> 02:29:10,960
Speaker 2: the thing that you think it is there it is. Yeah,

2809
02:29:11,080 --> 02:29:14,520
Speaker 2: sports shame all around. Sure, I've got plenty the amount

2810
02:29:14,520 --> 02:29:17,200
Speaker 2: of time I spent still watching the White Sox. The

2811
02:29:17,240 --> 02:29:20,880
Speaker 2: amount of time I spent sorting a box of twenty

2812
02:29:21,120 --> 02:29:25,360
Speaker 2: twenty three tops baseball. There's only five base cards you're

2813
02:29:25,400 --> 02:29:27,840
Speaker 2: taking out. You're making sure you don't have any of

2814
02:29:27,879 --> 02:29:31,720
Speaker 2: the variations of the images and the SSP's gold. Other

2815
02:29:31,760 --> 02:29:37,160
Speaker 2: than that, it's useless. It's all more wood, pulp, plastic.

2816
02:29:37,240 --> 02:29:41,000
Speaker 2: As it were some great photos, don't get me wrong,

2817
02:29:41,120 --> 02:29:45,480
Speaker 2: but you know, from evaluation and time perspective. Fortunately, I

2818
02:29:45,520 --> 02:29:47,720
Speaker 2: coupled that with money in the bank, so I was

2819
02:29:47,720 --> 02:29:51,680
Speaker 2: wasting time on two fronts and not separate blocks some time.

2820
02:29:52,160 --> 02:29:54,320
Speaker 2: But it was fun and I found a stack of

2821
02:29:54,360 --> 02:29:57,480
Speaker 2: stuff that's been sitting for quite a minute. Whenever you

2822
02:29:57,520 --> 02:30:00,560
Speaker 2: can pull out a stack of basketball cards, and Mark

2823
02:30:00,600 --> 02:30:02,920
Speaker 2: Eaton is the first name you see in your stack,

2824
02:30:03,200 --> 02:30:04,640
Speaker 2: You're feeling pretty good about life.

2825
02:30:04,800 --> 02:30:07,760
Speaker 4: Na too shabby, Mark Eaton, Yeah, you know.

2826
02:30:07,800 --> 02:30:10,440
Speaker 2: It's the legends all along. He's Dan byer On, Mike

02:34:00,760 --> 02:34:03,440
Speaker 4: And they had to, uh, I think there could be

2898
02:34:03,440 --> 02:34:04,480
Speaker 4: some storms in the area.

2899
02:34:04,400 --> 02:34:06,600
Speaker 2: A lot of weather today, so be careful.

2900
02:34:06,360 --> 02:34:10,600
Speaker 4: Of Yeah, they've moved up the tea times and so

2901
02:34:10,680 --> 02:34:15,000
Speaker 4: that's why you're getting some action now. But Colin Morikawa

2902
02:34:15,120 --> 02:34:18,960
Speaker 4: has tracked down Ricky Fowler Mari Kawa in the zone.

2903
02:34:19,000 --> 02:34:22,959
Speaker 4: The question is is on of course where twenty three

2904
02:34:23,040 --> 02:34:27,800
Speaker 4: under par leads right now? And Fowler birdied eighteen yesterday

2905
02:34:28,320 --> 02:34:31,039
Speaker 4: is the one whole edge that Ricky Fowler has on

2906
02:34:31,120 --> 02:34:34,959
Speaker 4: Mori Kawa going to be enough for him to grab

2907
02:34:35,000 --> 02:34:36,879
Speaker 4: the title. It'll be fun to watch, as I said,

2908
02:34:37,200 --> 02:34:40,240
Speaker 4: watching that, watching the US Senior Open will be something

2909
02:34:40,240 --> 02:34:43,279
Speaker 4: I'll be doing today. But yeah, this thing is motoring

2910
02:34:43,360 --> 02:34:45,920
Speaker 4: along in the Motor City. It'd be a good story

2911
02:34:45,959 --> 02:34:48,240
Speaker 4: for Ricky Fowler, but it could be a really good

2912
02:34:48,280 --> 02:34:51,959
Speaker 4: story for Colin Morikawa. Open Championship coming up now in

2913
02:34:52,040 --> 02:34:55,560
Speaker 4: a couple of weeks, and he's a guy who's already

2914
02:34:55,560 --> 02:34:57,560
Speaker 4: won one two years ago on at Rolla Saint George's.

2915
02:34:57,600 --> 02:35:00,280
Speaker 4: So try to do it again at Liverpool.

2916
02:35:00,160 --> 02:35:03,240
Speaker 2: To get in a little bit of a role as

2917
02:35:03,280 --> 02:35:07,680
Speaker 2: you get into another big event. We've got auto racing

2918
02:35:07,760 --> 02:35:11,520
Speaker 2: in Chicago. They've gone to the streets and they had

2919
02:35:11,560 --> 02:35:14,800
Speaker 2: some roads. Talking with Todd Furman, our guy from the

2920
02:35:14,840 --> 02:35:18,640
Speaker 2: Bet the Board podcast, asking a little bit about that, right,

2921
02:35:18,680 --> 02:35:22,440
Speaker 2: he's got Chicago roots, So kind of going through the

2922
02:35:22,560 --> 02:35:25,520
Speaker 2: particulars of hey, you know you're gonna have streets that

2923
02:35:25,560 --> 02:35:28,400
Speaker 2: were still going to be open late into Friday that

2924
02:35:28,480 --> 02:35:30,680
Speaker 2: they were then going to convert to part of the

2925
02:35:30,760 --> 02:35:34,920
Speaker 2: course which we know potholes and other issues must have

2926
02:35:35,040 --> 02:35:38,640
Speaker 2: a lot of big filler sections of road ready to

2927
02:35:38,680 --> 02:35:39,400
Speaker 2: just be laid down.

2928
02:35:39,440 --> 02:35:42,080
Speaker 4: Do you have an appreciation for that? Like, are you

2929
02:35:42,600 --> 02:35:44,600
Speaker 4: locked into that because it's your hometown.

2930
02:35:44,720 --> 02:35:48,280
Speaker 2: We'll check that out. It's also a different type of course, right, Yes.

2931
02:35:49,160 --> 02:35:51,320
Speaker 2: I had the pleasure many years ago when I worked

2932
02:35:51,360 --> 02:35:54,720
Speaker 2: at Yahoo. We went up to Sonoma and we got

2933
02:35:54,720 --> 02:36:02,280
Speaker 2: to watch live now regular NASCAR racing. It's I watch

2934
02:36:02,320 --> 02:36:05,400
Speaker 2: it and for a while I wrote columns, predictive columns

2935
02:36:05,400 --> 02:36:08,959
Speaker 2: for fantasy purposes and others based on past performance and

2936
02:36:09,000 --> 02:36:11,480
Speaker 2: trends and whatever, and I got deep into it for

2937
02:36:11,520 --> 02:36:14,280
Speaker 2: a while. I don't do those columns anymore, so back

2938
02:36:14,320 --> 02:36:17,720
Speaker 2: to a more casual observer. But road courses and little

2939
02:36:17,720 --> 02:36:20,680
Speaker 2: different setups. Yeah, I'm in right, t y f one

2940
02:36:20,800 --> 02:36:24,760
Speaker 2: races and whatever they hold. There's just a difference. And

2941
02:36:24,800 --> 02:36:27,720
Speaker 2: then you add the city skyline and again weather or

2942
02:36:27,720 --> 02:36:31,960
Speaker 2: a factor in Chicago, they've got some big storms as well.

2943
02:36:32,080 --> 02:36:33,879
Speaker 2: Last story I wanted to get to real quick, Dan

2944
02:36:33,920 --> 02:36:37,360
Speaker 2: before we get out of here, is one hoping for

2945
02:36:37,440 --> 02:36:40,320
Speaker 2: good health and a recovery. Deon sanders a lot of

2946
02:36:40,320 --> 02:36:43,640
Speaker 2: physical things that he's going through, trying to get himself

2947
02:36:43,720 --> 02:36:48,600
Speaker 2: right and ready for the upcoming season. But the Colorado

2948
02:36:48,680 --> 02:36:52,879
Speaker 2: Buffalo is one of the great stories, if only in

2949
02:36:54,000 --> 02:36:57,480
Speaker 2: a lot of interest, right Dion himself as the coach,

2950
02:36:57,840 --> 02:37:03,320
Speaker 2: the transfers, the Bravado, the videotape of hey, you know,

2951
02:37:03,400 --> 02:37:06,520
Speaker 2: get yourself into the portal, that kind of stuff. There

2952
02:37:06,600 --> 02:37:09,959
Speaker 2: was an anonymous Pac twelve coach, So always take it

2953
02:37:10,000 --> 02:37:12,360
Speaker 2: with the grain of salt. If they won't, you knows,

2954
02:37:12,600 --> 02:37:15,959
Speaker 2: as our old friend here at Fox Jay Morse would say,

2955
02:37:15,959 --> 02:37:17,600
Speaker 2: if you don't want to put your name on it,

2956
02:37:18,040 --> 02:37:20,160
Speaker 2: that you know, I take it with a little bit.

2957
02:37:20,400 --> 02:37:23,000
Speaker 2: But wondering if twenty twenty three could be a lose

2958
02:37:23,080 --> 02:37:27,279
Speaker 2: lose for Dion Sanders and Colorado. And it's something I've

2959
02:37:27,400 --> 02:37:30,760
Speaker 2: kind of raised my hand on through the process of

2960
02:37:30,920 --> 02:37:33,879
Speaker 2: because if he's really good, how long is he there?

2961
02:37:34,959 --> 02:37:41,120
Speaker 2: For one, that the immediate effects of that swell of

2962
02:37:41,160 --> 02:37:45,000
Speaker 2: support and are reviving of a once great, proud program

2963
02:37:45,040 --> 02:37:48,720
Speaker 2: would not be a huge deal, but one or if

2964
02:37:48,760 --> 02:37:53,320
Speaker 2: it implodes, does it set it back that much further

2965
02:37:53,640 --> 02:37:56,000
Speaker 2: because you changed the order of operation.

2966
02:37:56,200 --> 02:37:58,040
Speaker 4: I'll just say this, I think that that could happen

2967
02:37:58,080 --> 02:38:02,120
Speaker 4: in any job. I think that the Colorado football is

2968
02:38:02,240 --> 02:38:05,720
Speaker 4: the number one story entering the college football season. It

2969
02:38:05,840 --> 02:38:08,880
Speaker 4: is not whether Georgia can go back to back to back.

2970
02:38:09,240 --> 02:38:12,879
Speaker 4: It is not it can Nick Saban and Alabama go

2971
02:38:13,240 --> 02:38:17,480
Speaker 4: and get back into the College Football Playoff and win

2972
02:38:17,520 --> 02:38:21,920
Speaker 4: another national championship. It's not can Michigan win a national title?

2973
02:38:21,959 --> 02:38:24,960
Speaker 4: It's not can Ohio State meet Michigan again? It is

2974
02:38:25,120 --> 02:38:28,280
Speaker 4: about Colorado. It is what is about And I would

2975
02:38:28,280 --> 02:38:32,360
Speaker 4: always I would already say mission accomplished. Anywhere could be lose, lose,

2976
02:38:33,760 --> 02:38:36,760
Speaker 4: but he's brought what they wanted to right now. Their

2977
02:38:36,800 --> 02:38:40,680
Speaker 4: schedule is very difficult. The amount of power five. I

2978
02:38:40,680 --> 02:38:43,080
Speaker 4: think every game but one is a power five conference

2979
02:38:43,120 --> 02:38:46,360
Speaker 4: matchup your conference in including your non conference obviously, But

2980
02:38:46,760 --> 02:38:49,440
Speaker 4: I think it's a I think it's a any any

2981
02:38:49,440 --> 02:38:53,959
Speaker 4: of those gigs. A lot of those gigs are lose lose. Yeah,

2982
02:38:54,560 --> 02:38:56,400
Speaker 4: if they win, that's all that they wanted.

2983
02:38:56,879 --> 02:38:59,400
Speaker 2: But an end what what moves the needle anymore?

2984
02:39:00,080 --> 02:39:00,280
Speaker 3: Right?

2985
02:39:00,360 --> 02:39:04,800
Speaker 2: I mean in a changing college atmosphere for players, this

2986
02:39:04,920 --> 02:39:07,680
Speaker 2: is the one coaching move that moved the needle. Yes,

2987
02:39:07,840 --> 02:39:10,160
Speaker 2: because the coaches have had the power forever, right, And

2988
02:39:10,160 --> 02:39:12,920
Speaker 2: you've got Saban, and you've got Dabbo, and you've got

2989
02:39:13,000 --> 02:39:16,560
Speaker 2: Riley here at USC. I mean, you've got some power players.

2990
02:39:16,920 --> 02:39:21,440
Speaker 2: But someone breaking into potentially upset that apple cart and

2991
02:39:21,480 --> 02:39:24,320
Speaker 2: making them nervous by the way he's doing business. We've

2992
02:39:24,320 --> 02:39:27,440
Speaker 2: always been looking for something to shake, shake the tree,

2993
02:39:27,520 --> 02:39:29,959
Speaker 2: and Dion's done that before he's coached a single game there.

2994
02:39:30,320 --> 02:39:33,000
Speaker 4: You could say, Luke Fickel, same thing with Wisconsin makes

2995
02:39:33,040 --> 02:39:35,920
Speaker 4: the playoff. Guess what maybe Figgle goes. You know people

2996
02:39:35,959 --> 02:39:38,360
Speaker 4: are after him, right, same thing. A lot of places don't.

2997
02:39:38,400 --> 02:39:40,400
Speaker 4: I don't buy it. I think Colorado has already won,

2998
02:39:40,680 --> 02:39:42,120
Speaker 4: even if they're not gonna win a lot of games.

2999
02:39:42,120 --> 02:39:42,360
Speaker 3: Satan.

3000
02:39:42,400 --> 02:39:45,080
Speaker 2: He wears a pretty good cowboy hat. Steven Rich coming

3001
02:39:45,160 --> 02:39:46,800
Speaker 2: up next. Thanks for hanging with Dan and me here

3002
02:39:46,800 --> 02:39:47,279
Speaker 2: on Fox
