1
00:00:00,840 --> 00:00:04,800
Speaker 1: Time now for a sports update on a podcast. Joe

2
00:00:04,840 --> 00:00:08,639
Speaker 1: Buck honored by Baseball's Hall of Fame as the twenty

3
00:00:08,960 --> 00:00:11,440
Speaker 1: twenty six Frick Award winner.

4
00:00:12,039 --> 00:00:12,719
Speaker 2: Pretty amazing.

5
00:00:12,720 --> 00:00:16,119
Speaker 1: He will join his dad Michigan fire Sharon Moore for

6
00:00:16,239 --> 00:00:20,759
Speaker 1: inappropriate relationships. And he's in custody as a suspect in

7
00:00:20,800 --> 00:00:24,200
Speaker 1: an alleged assault. And finally, there was a great Emu

8
00:00:24,280 --> 00:00:28,600
Speaker 1: war in nineteen thirty two between EMU birds and the

9
00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:29,600
Speaker 1: Australian Army.

10
00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:35,600
Speaker 2: The EMUs won. How about that? Israel Gudieirez our boy

11
00:00:35,720 --> 00:00:36,760
Speaker 2: Joe Buck going to the.

12
00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:42,760
Speaker 3: Hall freaking awesome? I would say he was, but I'm sorry.

13
00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:45,720
Speaker 3: I know we do the whole song and dance. But

14
00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:49,040
Speaker 3: how did a flock of birds win a war against

15
00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:52,120
Speaker 3: a bunch of humans?

16
00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:54,880
Speaker 4: So it says the emu war was a bizarre nineteen

17
00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:59,240
Speaker 4: thirty two Australian military operation. Soldiers were armed with machine

18
00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:02,960
Speaker 4: guns were deployd to call around twenty thousand destructive EMUs

19
00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:06,800
Speaker 4: that were ruining crops, but the operation failed spectacular as

20
00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:11,440
Speaker 4: the fast Brazilian birds proved impossible to effectively target, leading

21
00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:15,039
Speaker 4: the military to withdraw and defeat and have to surrender.

22
00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:15,760
Speaker 2: Wow.

23
00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:21,399
Speaker 3: You couldn't just bomb the birds? How are you not

24
00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:24,240
Speaker 3: beating this girl? I'm looking at some photos here. It

25
00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:29,200
Speaker 3: is nightmare fuel Like, it is absolutely just scary as

26
00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:31,679
Speaker 3: hell to see these large ass birds running at you.

27
00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:34,080
Speaker 3: But it's not like you gotta go with a single

28
00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:36,120
Speaker 3: gun with all these just bomb the birds.

29
00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:38,840
Speaker 2: I had totally with you that army should be ashamed

30
00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:41,880
Speaker 2: of themselves. I mean, say, you can't beat birds? What

31
00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:44,560
Speaker 2: you weren't in the thick of it? Yeah, I know,

32
00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:45,560
Speaker 2: I wasn't ya.

33
00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:48,640
Speaker 3: And I'm starting to wonder who's in charge between Doug

34
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:52,120
Speaker 3: and the EMU, because those commercials seem like Doug's in charge,

35
00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:54,120
Speaker 3: but EMU seems to be the one that's running shit.

36
00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:58,640
Speaker 4: I think Liberty Mutual has kind of ruined the emu's reputation.

37
00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:01,480
Speaker 4: I think schools should make their mascots the EMUs. I

38
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:03,440
Speaker 4: had no idea that this was even a thing, and

39
00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:05,080
Speaker 4: now all of a sudden they're winning wars.

40
00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:10,000
Speaker 2: I'm with you, the EMU deserves more respect after winning

41
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:13,040
Speaker 2: a war. I'm totally with you.

42
00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:15,680
Speaker 4: Put it on the pall. Does the EMU deserve more respect?

43
00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:18,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, listen, it's not respected enough. It's just not

44
00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:21,280
Speaker 1: the EMU, especially when you consider it took down a

45
00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:22,000
Speaker 1: fucking army.

46
00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:24,800
Speaker 3: Do you know that EMUs will shake their feathers to

47
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:28,000
Speaker 3: make a rattling noise like a snake to warn predators.

48
00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:32,919
Speaker 2: That's crazy, They're bad assence, wait to say that again.

49
00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:37,240
Speaker 3: They shake their tail feathers, right, and to make a

50
00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:37,960
Speaker 3: rattling nose.

51
00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:39,840
Speaker 2: You're doing this, shake as you do it, hold on.

52
00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:42,679
Speaker 1: Hold on slow, Say it again so I can see

53
00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:43,320
Speaker 1: you shake again.

54
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:48,560
Speaker 2: EMUs will shake their feathers right. I don't know if

55
00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:49,160
Speaker 2: you can see that.

56
00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:49,840
Speaker 3: Uh.

57
00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:54,920

Speaker 3: Yes, they're trying to make it sound like you've got

Speaker 3: like a rattlesnake there, So don't come near me.

Speaker 1: joined us, uh in god bless football coming up. But

76
00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:46,760
Speaker 1: Taylor was telling me right before we came on air,

77
00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:51,000
Speaker 1: there is someone who has dipped his toe into the

78
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:54,960
Speaker 1: podcast waters and came out with an amazing I think

79
00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:57,760
Speaker 1: this is this is how you positioned it, an amazing

80
00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:02,240
Speaker 1: first take to start his podcas cast career. I don't

81
00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:04,800
Speaker 1: want to guess, so I just I would prefer Taylor

82
00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:06,480
Speaker 1: to reveal it to us, unless you guys feel like

83
00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:09,920
Speaker 1: guessing who this person might be, you know, I.

84
00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:11,960
Speaker 3: Mean, is it a veteran that we know of that

85
00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:14,400
Speaker 3: just happened to be a podcaster all of a sudden

86
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:17,000
Speaker 3: that we didn't recognize, or so it's.

87
00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:20,479
Speaker 4: A it's a combo of a vet and somebody he's

88
00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:23,560
Speaker 4: bringing in to his world to do a podcast.

89
00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:24,880
Speaker 2: Is it skip Bayless?

90
00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:29,200
Speaker 4: No, but close along along the taket skips so long?

91
00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:32,280
Speaker 2: I mean, jeez, yeah, So.

92
00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:37,040
Speaker 4: The podcast is a Spotify Ringer original podcast. It's called

93
00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:40,920
Speaker 4: Game Over with Max Kallerman, Ah, Rich Paul.

94
00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:44,200
Speaker 2: Really Rich Paul.

95
00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:47,560
Speaker 4: And then in the first episode he said, why don't

96
00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:50,240
Speaker 4: the Cowboys trade for Patrick Mahomes?

97
00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:52,400
Speaker 2: Wow? Why not?

98
00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:56,599
Speaker 1: Because the Chiefs won't do it? I mean, but that

99
00:04:56,720 --> 00:04:59,240
Speaker 1: is a good, excellent job at a Rich Paul. I

100
00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:01,240
Speaker 1: mean that is I'll tell you do it. That's how

101
00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:04,200
Speaker 1: you dip your toe into the podcast waters by trading

102
00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:07,680
Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes to the Cowboys within your first five sentences.

103
00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:08,279
Speaker 2: That's great.

104
00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:13,760
Speaker 3: How many draft picks and starters do they have to

105
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:16,279
Speaker 3: send back to Kansas City for Patrick Mahomes?

106
00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:16,839
Speaker 2: You keep Dak.

107
00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:20,080
Speaker 3: You start with Dak, right, I mean Dak, Ceedee, Lamb,

108
00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:22,760
Speaker 3: George Pickens, six first rounders.

109
00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:24,680
Speaker 2: I think Andy Reid went to Super Bowl with that.

110
00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:31,080
Speaker 2: So I mean maybe the Chiefs should listen Rich Paul

111
00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:32,400
Speaker 2: really Rich Paul.

112
00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:35,400
Speaker 1: Yes, now it's got me thinking about agents.

113
00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:36,240
Speaker 2: It would be good at this.

114
00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:40,000
Speaker 3: I swear I thought he was going to say Billy Gill.

115
00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:42,360
Speaker 3: The second he said the ringer, I was like, wow,

116
00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:44,520
Speaker 3: Billy Gill. It must be some sort of crazy take,

117
00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:46,160
Speaker 3: which for Billy would have been normal take.

118
00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:48,560
Speaker 1: Yes, I'm certain Billy will be dipping his toes into

119
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:49,919
Speaker 1: the podcast warders soon.

120
00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:52,000
Speaker 2: I would imagine.

121
00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:55,679
Speaker 1: So really Rich Paul and he's teamed up with Max Kellerman.

122
00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:57,080
Speaker 1: Now Simmons a part of this.

123
00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:00,040
Speaker 4: It doesn't look like it. It looks like it's just those.

124
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:05,240
Speaker 3: Really, but wondering what Max has been up to. He's

125
00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:07,279
Speaker 3: really waiting on that around the Horn follow up.

126
00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:10,120
Speaker 1: Oh no, listen, it's been a while for Max, right,

127
00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:15,400
Speaker 1: it's he disappeared once, uh once he left, uh first take,

128
00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:17,600
Speaker 1: and so I'm excited for him to come back. I'm

129
00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:20,760
Speaker 1: just I'm just I'm sorry. I'm speechless that I'm shocked

130
00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:23,880
Speaker 1: because I've never had Max Kellorman coming back with Rich Paul.

131
00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:27,080
Speaker 3: Mean, all right, well, let's talk about something that's You're

132
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:30,760
Speaker 3: more comfortable talking about.

133
00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:40,680
Speaker 2: Your pingo card. It was I thought it'd be skipped. Yes, yeah,

134
00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:43,120
Speaker 2: oh I might.

135
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:51,640
Speaker 3: Listen to that. Exes xes and os.

136
00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:56,400
Speaker 1: Yes, Taylor put this on the pole. Has James Franklin

137
00:06:56,640 --> 00:06:59,160
Speaker 1: already tried? Has he called his agent in an effort

138
00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:02,480
Speaker 1: to try to wiggle off the Virginia Tech contract so

139
00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:03,760
Speaker 1: we could take the Michigan job.

140
00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:06,680
Speaker 2: It's a wordy poll, but I'm pretty certain a lot.

141
00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:09,960
Speaker 1: Of coaches have called their agent saying, hey, I'd be

142
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:14,040
Speaker 1: interested in that job. What a crazy story that broke

143
00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:19,640
Speaker 1: yesterday is mid afternoon where Charon Moore, the Michigan head coach,

144
00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:22,880
Speaker 1: was let go by the university and then we find

145
00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:26,280
Speaker 1: out maybe about an hour or so later, that he

146
00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:30,440
Speaker 1: has arrested. He is arrested by the police. He is

147
00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:32,840
Speaker 1: still in custody right now. We don't have any updates

148
00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:36,440
Speaker 1: on the story. But just a shocking story. And I

149
00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:41,560
Speaker 1: hate when this happens when people start saying, yeah, it's

150
00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:44,320
Speaker 1: a shocking story. But this has been kind of lurking

151
00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:46,960
Speaker 1: around the program. There have been rumors for a couple

152
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:50,160
Speaker 1: of weeks. Now, this is not a surprise to Edie One. Sorry,

153
00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:53,360
Speaker 1: I was fucking shocked by it. I had no idea

154
00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:56,720
Speaker 1: that there were rumors around the program that Sharon Moore

155
00:07:56,800 --> 00:07:59,880
Speaker 1: was having an affair with someone on the Michigan staff,

156
00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:02,920
Speaker 1: that allegedly he gave her a fifty five thousand dollars

157
00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:05,480
Speaker 1: or fifty five percent raised out of nowhere, that he

158
00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:07,800
Speaker 1: was not trying to keep this a secret. I had

159
00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:11,640
Speaker 1: no idea, and so just a shocking story. And it

160
00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:13,720
Speaker 1: comes not that there's any good time for this, but

161
00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:17,720
Speaker 1: in terms of Michigan's timing, it's the worst possible time

162
00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:21,040
Speaker 1: when you consider recruiting, when you consider a lot of

163
00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:24,080
Speaker 1: these coaches have heard he left their current schools to

164
00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:24,800
Speaker 1: go elsewhere.

165
00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:26,880
Speaker 2: So what were your thoughts on this is he as

166
00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:27,920
Speaker 2: it broke yesterday? Yeah.

167
00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:30,960
Speaker 3: I had two sort of overriding thoughts as I was

168
00:08:31,280 --> 00:08:35,679
Speaker 3: reading through everything. Number one was, oh, yeah, that's Michigan's

169
00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:38,400
Speaker 3: new head coach, because honestly, like after Harvard, I wasn't

170
00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:41,080
Speaker 3: really paying that close attention and so I was like, Okay,

171
00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:44,080
Speaker 3: that's in the head coaches. The second one was the

172
00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:46,320
Speaker 3: thing that I don't know if it bothered me or

173
00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:48,160
Speaker 3: if it was So I'm trying to put myself in

174
00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:51,920
Speaker 3: the place of these reporters who heard, you know whatever

175
00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:56,160
Speaker 3: it was secondhand, heard rumors about more and these relationships.

176
00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:58,120
Speaker 1: I'm here in wetsill say this is not a surprise

177
00:08:58,200 --> 00:08:59,880
Speaker 1: to him yet he wasn't reporting on it. But I

178
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:02,320
Speaker 1: don't blame him because he doesn't report on rumors.

179
00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:04,880
Speaker 3: Well, this is what I'm talking about, right, So it's

180
00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:11,000
Speaker 3: like you have to weigh whether you believe this reported

181
00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:14,439
Speaker 3: rumor is something you should sort of pull at right,

182
00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:17,560
Speaker 3: pull on that thread. Or if it's just some salacious

183
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:19,480
Speaker 3: bs that you don't want to get involved with because

184
00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:20,360
Speaker 3: it's their personal life.

185
00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:20,559
Speaker 2: Right.

186
00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:24,600
Speaker 3: If you happen to know that Michigan is very strict

187
00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:29,880
Speaker 3: about this sort of policy with dating within within the organization,

188
00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:33,880
Speaker 3: then maybe you should try to report on it because

189
00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:36,120
Speaker 3: it is a violation of the Michigan program.

190
00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:36,360
Speaker 6: Right.

191
00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:39,520
Speaker 3: But then if it's not true, if it's something that

192
00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:42,880
Speaker 3: you're just sort of pulling on, you're just like, well,

193
00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:44,760
Speaker 3: they're gonna hate me for this. It's going to ruin

194
00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:47,079
Speaker 3: my reputation as a reporter. I'm not going to want

195
00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:50,080
Speaker 3: to get involved here. Let somebody else handle that. But

196
00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:53,719
Speaker 3: when you consider what happened with the Boston Celtics and

197
00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:57,120
Speaker 3: email Udoka and how sort of instant that was and

198
00:09:57,160 --> 00:09:59,800
Speaker 3: how they separated themselves from him, if I was a

199
00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:03,360
Speaker 3: I'd be wondering, man, I think I might have to

200
00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:06,400
Speaker 3: ask some questions about this. And even if it's like, hey,

201
00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:10,120
Speaker 3: I could be dead wrong here. I'm not saying this

202
00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:12,280
Speaker 3: is true. I am working on rumors here.

203
00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:13,080
Speaker 2: Tell me.

204
00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:16,840
Speaker 3: If there's anything to this, then you'd be able to

205
00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:19,760
Speaker 3: get a read from them, whether they're panicking saying no, no,

206
00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:20,880
Speaker 3: you got to stay away from the da da dah.

207
00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:22,400
Speaker 3: And then there is you know, maybe that is something

208
00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:24,280
Speaker 3: you need to continue to report on, or if they

209
00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:26,080
Speaker 3: just flat out say, hey, it's a lie.

210
00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:27,120
Speaker 2: Get don't even worry about it.

211
00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:29,640
Speaker 3: You'll be doing yourself a favor by not reporting on

212
00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:32,520
Speaker 3: that to me was the big question mark. It's just like, wow,

213
00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:34,600
Speaker 3: what do I as a sports reporter because I hated

214
00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:36,760
Speaker 3: having to do anything like this. Like I remember one

215
00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:39,600
Speaker 3: time with the Miami Heat, there was a player my

216
00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:41,520
Speaker 3: first year, so you can go back to two thousand

217
00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:43,400
Speaker 3: and just guess which player it was. But there's a

218
00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:47,079
Speaker 3: player who had an ex who was reaching out to

219
00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:50,640
Speaker 3: reporters saying, oh, this player has not been paying his

220
00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:53,280
Speaker 3: child support and it's gonna get sued and all this

221
00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:53,720
Speaker 3: and this and that.

222
00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:55,760
Speaker 2: I'm just like, what the hell am I supposed to

223
00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:56,160
Speaker 2: do with this?

224
00:10:56,679 --> 00:10:58,760
Speaker 3: And so I ended up going back to said player

225
00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:00,760
Speaker 3: and just saying, hey, I'm getting easy. I don't know

226
00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:02,520
Speaker 3: what to do, and he was just like, thank you,

227
00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:05,079
Speaker 3: just so you know, here's my side of the story.

228
00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:07,040
Speaker 3: It's all nonsense, blah blah blah, And then I just

229
00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:08,840
Speaker 3: dropped it and then it turns out that there was

230
00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:11,199
Speaker 3: nothing there. There's nothing there, and it ended up being

231
00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:14,120
Speaker 3: okay that I dropped it. But in a situation like this, again,

232
00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:17,120
Speaker 3: especially because of the Boston Celtics situation, just makes me

233
00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:20,319
Speaker 3: think that, yeah, maybe it should have been something that

234
00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:22,040
Speaker 3: you ask about early.

235
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:25,080
Speaker 2: But it felt like Michigan was even like in a

236
00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:26,440
Speaker 2: wait and see situation.

237
00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:29,480
Speaker 3: Let's let's see if he's a really good coach, because

238
00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:31,560
Speaker 3: then maybe we can overlook this. That's kind of what

239
00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:33,480
Speaker 3: it felt like in the reporting that I that I read.

240
00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:34,880
Speaker 2: Wait, so this is interesting to me.

241
00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:36,920
Speaker 1: You did not like the reporting where you had to

242
00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:38,440
Speaker 1: dig into someone's personal life.

243
00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:40,040
Speaker 2: Is that what you're saying? No, I hate that.

244
00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:43,040
Speaker 3: I hate it, And like I got into sports to

245
00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:45,160
Speaker 3: cover sports, dude, I got it, spot, I didn't go

246
00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:46,560
Speaker 3: even when you chose to.

247
00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:49,480
Speaker 1: Be a journalist, you chose to be a reporter, you know, Yeah,

248
00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:52,040
Speaker 1: and that comes along with it, right, and you know.

249
00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:54,240
Speaker 3: Crossing my finger that it doesn't come up that often

250
00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:57,280
Speaker 3: in whatever team that I covered, and you know, fortunately

251
00:11:57,280 --> 00:11:57,680
Speaker 3: it hasn't.

252
00:11:57,679 --> 00:11:59,439
Speaker 2: But yeah, I don't like covering that stuff.

253
00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:01,200
Speaker 3: And I'm gonna guess most of the people, unless you

254
00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:05,160
Speaker 3: are an investigative journalist. That's what you're you know, the

255
00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:07,480
Speaker 3: itch that you scratch, and you would love that. But

256
00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:09,560
Speaker 3: for me, I would say probably most of the people

257
00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:11,800
Speaker 3: who got into a career of covering sports and don't

258
00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:15,079
Speaker 3: want to cover family law situations, you know what I mean?

259
00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:18,200
Speaker 1: Yes, the second part of the story is at least

260
00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:21,600
Speaker 1: for me, uh far more jarring. There was an affair,

261
00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:25,480
Speaker 1: they happened, he was fired, he was let go. The

262
00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:27,640
Speaker 1: second part of the story where you're wondering to yourself,

263
00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:30,880
Speaker 1: why is he in custody? Okay, he was fired by Michigan,

264
00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:33,640
Speaker 1: But why is he in custody? Because then you start

265
00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:36,360
Speaker 1: to think, what did he do? What has happened here?

266
00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:38,600
Speaker 1: Is there something crashing out? Is it something we should

267
00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:41,360
Speaker 1: be concerned with? Yes, And so the reports are that

268
00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:44,760
Speaker 1: he showed up at this person's house, the person he

269
00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:47,679
Speaker 1: was having an affair with, broke into the house and

270
00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:52,600
Speaker 1: threatened to kill himself and her and so, and now

271
00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:54,680
Speaker 1: he's in custody. And so the second part of the

272
00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:57,960
Speaker 1: story where you start to wonder, Wow, this is more

273
00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:00,760
Speaker 1: serious than a coach just having an affair. This is

274
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:03,160
Speaker 1: more serious than a coach being let go by Michigan,

275
00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:06,760
Speaker 1: there might be something wrong inside that person's head.

276
00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:09,160
Speaker 2: And Izzy, I've said this for.

277
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:10,959
Speaker 1: A million years, and you have been way closer to

278
00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:13,720
Speaker 1: the athletes than the coaches than I have. We do

279
00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:16,280
Speaker 1: not know these people and what they're going through. We

280
00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:19,040
Speaker 1: have no idea what's inside of those.

281
00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:23,600
Speaker 3: Books, regardless of Michigan policy, regardless of who works where. Right,

282
00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:28,360
Speaker 3: if you're in a situation, you're a public figure, you

283
00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:32,240
Speaker 3: have a family, and then you get caught doing this,

284
00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:35,439
Speaker 3: I can't imagine what it feels like to have your

285
00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:39,840
Speaker 3: entire world collapse in a day and everybody know why,

286
00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:43,360
Speaker 3: and everybody and just judging i'm sure from a distance

287
00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:46,720
Speaker 3: and mother fing you because they're you know, Michigan fans.

288
00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:49,320
Speaker 3: It's like, how could you do this? Blah blah blah.

289
00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:53,240
Speaker 3: I can't imagine how quickly anybody could spiral out of

290
00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:56,920
Speaker 3: control in that situation, because that's your entire life potentially

291
00:13:57,400 --> 00:13:59,040
Speaker 3: just being gone, just like that.

292
00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:01,920
Speaker 1: Right, it's such a great point by you, the idea

293
00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:04,720
Speaker 1: that this guy was the big man on campus, the

294
00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:07,760
Speaker 1: most probably one of the most powerful men on campus,

295
00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:11,280
Speaker 1: and now everyone's sprinting away from him, and so right,

296
00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:13,600
Speaker 1: it's hard to fathom what that must feel like, the

297
00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:14,400
Speaker 1: fall from grace.

298
00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:17,120
Speaker 3: There's so many layers to it too, Like you don't

299
00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:19,960
Speaker 3: get too many black men who get the opportunity to

300
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:22,920
Speaker 3: be head coaches in football, and you know.

301
00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:24,520
Speaker 2: Especially in a place like Michigan.

302
00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:26,600
Speaker 3: Is he Yeah, especially at a place like Michigan, and

303
00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:29,400
Speaker 3: you don't want to mess up that opportunity, right, That's

304
00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:32,240
Speaker 3: another layer of this whole thing. But to me, it's

305
00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:36,320
Speaker 3: just it does make you wonder, Hey, let's make sure

306
00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:38,920
Speaker 3: that he's okay, that he's not doing any damage to himself,

307
00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:42,160
Speaker 3: that she's ony obviously right, or other people, because it

308
00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:45,920
Speaker 3: is It is, honestly one of the most I can't

309
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:48,880
Speaker 3: imagine outside of a death in the family, a sudden

310
00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:52,440
Speaker 3: death of multiple members of your family. Just how if

311
00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:55,080
Speaker 3: there's anything that compares to this level of shock.

312
00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:58,080
Speaker 4: A lot of college football fans too, I think we're

313
00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:02,760
Speaker 4: skeptical about the timing the announcement because they lose to

314
00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:06,240
Speaker 4: Ohio State. They do this right after signing day? Was

315
00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:08,680
Speaker 4: this a move for Michigan to try to protect themselves?

316
00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:11,600
Speaker 4: But you're you're looking at the reporting, this is from

317
00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:16,760
Speaker 4: John U. Bacon. You am conducted an internal investigation interviewing

318
00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:20,040
Speaker 4: both More and the employee this summer, both said that

319
00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:22,880
Speaker 4: this didn't happen, that Michigan didn't really have much to

320
00:15:22,920 --> 00:15:27,160
Speaker 4: go on. But John U. Bacon the sports journalists, He said,

321
00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:30,440
Speaker 4: her account flipped yesterday morning. So then when when her

322
00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:33,680
Speaker 4: account flips yesterday morning, then all of a sudden, Michigan

323
00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:35,600
Speaker 4: does have something to now act on.

324
00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:38,360
Speaker 2: What do we think of John Bacon using his middle

325
00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:40,680
Speaker 2: initial and John U. Bacon.

326
00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:45,040
Speaker 3: It's a memorable name, it's a memorable byline.

327
00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:48,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think Johnny Bacon is a memorable I'm saying

328
00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:50,880
Speaker 2: I think Johnny Bacon might have been better. But anyway,

329
00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:51,240
Speaker 2: I think.

330
00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:53,360
Speaker 1: If your last name's Bacon and your first name is John,

331
00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:55,360
Speaker 1: you have to go Johnny Bacon. Don't you put it

332
00:15:55,360 --> 00:15:58,200
Speaker 1: on the pall Tayler, Yeah, your.

333
00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:00,400
Speaker 2: First name's John and your last names and do you

334
00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:00,920
Speaker 2: have to go.

335
00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:03,440
Speaker 1: If your last name is Bacon and your first name

336
00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:06,040
Speaker 1: is John, do you have to go Johnny Bacon?

337
00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:09,320
Speaker 2: John you Bacon. It's just a little rough on the mouth.

338
00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:10,680
Speaker 2: It doesn't just fly out.

339
00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:13,320
Speaker 1: Yes, you have to give a pause there, Well is

340
00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:14,920
Speaker 1: he What do you make of what Taylor just told

341
00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:15,280
Speaker 1: us there?

342
00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:16,920
Speaker 2: Because this goes back to the summer.

343
00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:21,160
Speaker 1: All right, they were investigating this internally in the summer,

344
00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:24,160
Speaker 1: and we don't have a firing here until right before

345
00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:24,640
Speaker 1: the new year.

346
00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:27,240
Speaker 3: So it's basically what I was saying earlier. It's just

347
00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:30,360
Speaker 3: like Michigan is just like, well, let's see because if

348
00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:32,680
Speaker 3: he's a really good coach and we beat Ohio State

349
00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:35,440
Speaker 3: and we get to the playoff, maybe we'll just sweep

350
00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:37,880
Speaker 3: this under the rook and then it turns out, oh no,

351
00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:41,440
Speaker 3: none of those things happened. Sorry, complete violation of our policy.

352
00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:42,280
Speaker 3: You got to get out of here.

353
00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:45,960
Speaker 1: Are you making the allegation that if Michigan beats Ohio

354
00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:47,920
Speaker 1: State is playing in the college football Playoff?

355
00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:49,600
Speaker 2: Sheroon Moore is still the head coach today.

356
00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:52,840
Speaker 3: If this was something that was rumored in the summer,

357
00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:54,880
Speaker 3: We're not talking like late October.

358
00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:56,480
Speaker 2: We're talking the entire season.

359
00:16:56,640 --> 00:16:59,240
Speaker 3: So yeah, I think I'm going to go ahead and

360
00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:01,000
Speaker 3: put that out there.

361
00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:03,040
Speaker 1: Just to your earlier point about what it's like the

362
00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:04,760
Speaker 1: fall from grace. I'm sorry, Mikey. I'll get to you

363
00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:06,919
Speaker 1: in just a second. That fall from grace. This is

364
00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:09,320
Speaker 1: not just a fall from grace. This is a fall

365
00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:11,600
Speaker 1: from grace. Where this guy is not coming back from

366
00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:17,200
Speaker 1: it period, end of discussion, career over, money gone, marriage

367
00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:21,119
Speaker 1: probably over, and I cannot imagine what that must feel

368
00:17:21,160 --> 00:17:24,000
Speaker 1: like in the moment for Charon Moore. I'm not trying

369
00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:27,480
Speaker 1: to make him a sympathetic figure at all. I'm just saying,

370
00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:29,760
Speaker 1: there is no telling what any of us would do

371
00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:32,680
Speaker 1: in that moment. Have we gone through the same situation.

372
00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:34,880
Speaker 1: And people will say, well, we put himself in that situation.

373
00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:39,200
Speaker 1: You're one thousand percent correct, get it, And whatever comes

374
00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:41,560
Speaker 1: his way if he did some of these things, if

375
00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:43,440
Speaker 1: he broke into a house, if he threatened to kill

376
00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:45,919
Speaker 1: if he threaten to kill himself, he deserves it. Okay,

377
00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:49,240
Speaker 1: I'm not trying to make a figure. I'm just trying

378
00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:51,359
Speaker 1: to say that people who are I'm just trying to

379
00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:54,000
Speaker 1: make the point that people who are going to make

380
00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:57,320
Speaker 1: who are going to cast judgments today and criticize Sharon Moore,

381
00:17:57,800 --> 00:17:59,680
Speaker 1: you have every right to do it, but you also have.

382
00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:02,200
Speaker 2: No idea how you would respond in a similar situation.

383
00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:05,119
Speaker 3: That's all I was just saying that the that to me,

384
00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:07,400
Speaker 3: like the affair, I don't think would have ended his career.

385
00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:09,359
Speaker 3: I think he could have been you know a coordinator

386
00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:12,920
Speaker 3: somewhere and just kind of re just let things settle down.

387
00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:16,520
Speaker 3: But I think the aftermath, I think the the arrest

388
00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:18,600
Speaker 3: and everything else, I think that's going to be where

389
00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:20,919
Speaker 3: it's just like, maybe we should stay away from this person.

390
00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:22,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, to the story to a whole new level. Mikey,

391
00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:24,320
Speaker 2: you were gonna say, I'm sorry I cut you off.

392
00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:26,520
Speaker 6: That's okay, you cut me off like three times. But

393
00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:27,080
Speaker 6: that's cool.

394
00:18:27,880 --> 00:18:31,640
Speaker 2: Well this he coming off with it. He's not cool

395
00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:32,159
Speaker 2: with it at all.

396
00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:33,880
Speaker 6: I'm not That's why I said it that way.

397
00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:36,159
Speaker 2: And I'm okay with him not being cool with it

398
00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:37,480
Speaker 2: because I shouldn't have done it to him, but I

399
00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:38,320
Speaker 2: did anyone stuff.

400
00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:40,639
Speaker 6: I'll be the first to raise my hand and say

401
00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:42,080
Speaker 6: when when the.

402
00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:46,240
Speaker 5: Initial report came out, my immediate thought was if he

403
00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:48,640
Speaker 5: beats Ohio State, we're not hearing about this. But there's

404
00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:51,159
Speaker 5: more and more details come out, you go, yeah, okay, no,

405
00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:54,000
Speaker 5: this is this is this is a thing. This is

406
00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:56,719
Speaker 5: more than just he wasn't the football coach and we

407
00:18:56,720 --> 00:18:58,960
Speaker 5: were looking for a way out and the only other

408
00:18:59,720 --> 00:19:04,120
Speaker 5: the the closest comparison I can come to to what

409
00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:07,720
Speaker 5: we are getting from Cheril Moore is Bobby Petrino back

410
00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:10,240
Speaker 5: when he had the neck brace and it was all

411
00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:13,600
Speaker 5: this talk of oh, he got into a car accident. Wait, no,

412
00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:16,520
Speaker 5: he didn't get into a car accident. Who was with him?

413
00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:17,000
Speaker 5: And all this.

414
00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:19,040
Speaker 6: It's one of those where it.

415
00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:23,160
Speaker 5: Feels like almost the lies and the cover ups are

416
00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:24,199
Speaker 5: what do you win?

417
00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:25,359
Speaker 6: More so than the affair.

418
00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:27,600
Speaker 1: It seems like Michigan was trying to get ahead of

419
00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:29,560
Speaker 1: a story that was possibly going to come out very

420
00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:30,040
Speaker 1: very soon.

421
00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:30,760
Speaker 2: Is that fair? Is he?

422
00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:31,000
Speaker 4: That?

423
00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:35,119
Speaker 2: Is that seen? Were they trying to get ahead of it?

424
00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:37,680
Speaker 2: Or well, you ask yourself why now?

425
00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:39,720
Speaker 1: If they were investigating this back in the summer, you

426
00:19:39,800 --> 00:19:41,440
Speaker 1: must ask yourself, okay, so why now?

427
00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:43,960
Speaker 2: What happened between the summer and now?

428
00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:46,520
Speaker 1: For them to decide and you might say they lost

429
00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:49,359
Speaker 1: to Ohio State, for them to decide the part ways

430
00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:51,119
Speaker 1: with youraron more, that's all it could have.

431
00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:52,240
Speaker 2: I mean, it could have. It could have been a

432
00:19:52,280 --> 00:19:52,720
Speaker 2: lot of things.

433
00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:54,240
Speaker 3: It could have been early in the season where they're

434
00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:56,119
Speaker 3: just like, hey, we know about this, you know, stop

435
00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:58,199
Speaker 3: it or else, and then he didn't, and then it

436
00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:00,280
Speaker 3: was a situation okay, now you're gone. Have been a

437
00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:04,520
Speaker 3: lot of things, but I think if you are Michigan,

438
00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:09,000
Speaker 3: I think, especially in today's climate, especially when you know

439
00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:11,840
Speaker 3: you feel like everything eventually will get out, you should

440
00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:15,000
Speaker 3: just be as transparent as possible. And yes, if it

441
00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:19,399
Speaker 3: was a pre season situation, if it wasn't handled, nipped

442
00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:22,040
Speaker 3: in the butter or whatever by September, I would have said,

443
00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:24,320
Speaker 3: all right, I think it's time now, because we can't

444
00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:27,600
Speaker 3: keep burying ourselves. And then and then what happens, right,

445
00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:29,680
Speaker 3: what if they were really good? What if they did

446
00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:32,400
Speaker 3: surprisingly win the Big Ten and make the playoff, and

447
00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:35,359
Speaker 3: then the reporter just started saying, hey, you've known about

448
00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:37,240
Speaker 3: this since September or since August?

449
00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:39,400
Speaker 2: What the hell? So? I don't think they've gotten ahead

450
00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:39,520
Speaker 2: of it.

451
00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:41,359
Speaker 3: In fact, I think they probably got lucky that they

452
00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:43,320
Speaker 3: didn't have a lot more aggressive reporters in the area.

453
00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:47,880
Speaker 4: From a football perspective, if you're Michigan and Sharon Moore

454
00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:52,600
Speaker 4: does give you the pathway to fire him with cause

455
00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:55,840
Speaker 4: like that Michigan job is probably we talked about how

456
00:20:55,840 --> 00:20:59,080
Speaker 4: great the LSU job is. That Michigan job is without

457
00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:01,479
Speaker 4: question a top ten job and off college football, and

458
00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:04,920
Speaker 4: now it's like their chance to get their next.

459
00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:07,480
Speaker 2: Guy, which makes it feel like that exactly what we

460
00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:09,440
Speaker 2: just said. They're just like, hey, let's give it a second.

461
00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:12,560
Speaker 3: Maybe we won't need because again, for them, worst case scenario,

462
00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:15,359
Speaker 3: he's involved in a scandal, we get to fire him

463
00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:17,399
Speaker 3: for cause, don't have to pay all that money. Can

464
00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:19,840
Speaker 3: hire whoever the hell else we want, but let's make

465
00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:20,879
Speaker 3: sure he's not great first.

466
00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:23,320
Speaker 1: Why couldn't you fire him with calls two weeks ago,

467
00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:26,080
Speaker 1: three weeks ago if you started investigating so.

468
00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:27,600
Speaker 2: You knew you weren't getting it once you knew you

469
00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:28,920
Speaker 2: weren't in the mix for the playoff?

470
00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:31,960
Speaker 1: All right, Well, I mean, listen, that's it's a leap,

471
00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:33,520
Speaker 1: and I'm certain a lot of people are making that

472
00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:36,840
Speaker 1: leap today. But I'm also wondering the speculation they had

473
00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:41,199
Speaker 1: more information yesterday or in the days leading up to

474
00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:44,879
Speaker 1: what happened yesterday, and everything that happened after the fact

475
00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:45,679
Speaker 1: has nothing to do.

476
00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:47,720
Speaker 2: That's not what Michigan was investigating. They had no.

477
00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:51,480
Speaker 1: Idea that that was going to be his reaction to

478
00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:54,720
Speaker 1: Michigan firing him. But I do wonder is it as

479
00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:57,119
Speaker 1: simple as we had a chance to get rid of

480
00:21:57,160 --> 00:21:57,800
Speaker 1: our head coach.

481
00:21:57,840 --> 00:22:00,280
Speaker 2: This is a plush jobs job.

482
00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:02,000
Speaker 1: I would say why not do it two weeks ago

483
00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:05,960
Speaker 1: when a lot of the coaches were available, so or

484
00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:09,560
Speaker 1: and I think this is probably where it's at. Michigan

485
00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:13,159
Speaker 1: was armed with new information and they were left with

486
00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:15,840
Speaker 1: no choice but to release and fire sh run more.

487
00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:18,680
Speaker 2: That would be my best guess. So it's going to

488
00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:19,280
Speaker 2: be interesting.

489
00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:22,840
Speaker 1: I do wonder who Michigan because this is Taylor's right,

490
00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:25,720
Speaker 1: This is a top ten job in America.

491
00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:27,760
Speaker 2: This job I would like.

492
00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:31,040
Speaker 1: Jim Harbaugh got himself back to the NFL, won a

493
00:22:31,119 --> 00:22:35,280
Speaker 1: national championship, laid a foundation, laid the groundwork. It's a

494
00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:38,200
Speaker 1: storied football program. There are going to be a lot

495
00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:41,080
Speaker 1: of people, including NFL coaches, who are going to be

496
00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:43,520
Speaker 1: interested in being the next head coach at Michigan.

497
00:22:43,600 --> 00:22:46,040
Speaker 3: See a lot of Michigan alums who are probably going

498
00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:49,080
Speaker 3: to be very vocal about this, like Tom Brady, Like

499
00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:53,240
Speaker 3: Tom Bradys.

500
00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:55,439
Speaker 1: A coach, listen to Brady ever wanted to listen. If

501
00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:58,280
Speaker 1: he ever fancied himself a head coach, this would be

502
00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:01,840
Speaker 1: the time to do it, because is your university. It's

503
00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:06,640
Speaker 1: desperate times, right, They're up against it. They need someone

504
00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:09,440
Speaker 1: they need to bounce back. It needs to look good

505
00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:12,320
Speaker 1: when they do bounce back. This is a terrible story

506
00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:14,880
Speaker 1: that's only getting worse. And how can you bounce back

507
00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:19,960
Speaker 1: any better than having Tom Brady on your sidelines in

508
00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:20,560
Speaker 1: the quarter view?

509
00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:25,000
Speaker 6: Can you call games for Fox while coaching Michigan and

510
00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:30,080
Speaker 6: owning same time? Because if anybody could.

511
00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:35,400
Speaker 2: TV twelve method, it would make the entire thing go away. Right, Hey,

512
00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:37,840
Speaker 2: look there's Brady. You'd stop talking about your own work.

513
00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:43,240
Speaker 4: I consider myself a college football matchmaker of sorts, because, uh,

514
00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:46,080
Speaker 4: I think I am college football. I I told everybody

515
00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:48,640
Speaker 4: from the Star, Brian Kelly else, you made no sense.

516
00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:57,200
Speaker 1: Time out You college is Taylor college football. I think

517
00:23:57,320 --> 00:24:00,720
Speaker 1: I am college football. Is one of the grandest takes

518
00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:01,320
Speaker 1: I've ever heard.

519
00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:04,160
Speaker 2: Yes, in the preseason college football.

520
00:24:04,520 --> 00:24:07,000
Speaker 4: In the preseason, I said Fernanda Mendoza was going to

521
00:24:07,040 --> 00:24:10,200
Speaker 4: be a great quarterback. I told, I told everybody that

522
00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:15,000
Speaker 4: would listen. Hey, Drew Aller, Kate Klubnick, these guys stink.

523
00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:16,600
Speaker 4: Stop talking about them.

524
00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:18,960
Speaker 2: He did. What did you say about Belichick when he

525
00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:20,360
Speaker 2: got Yes, That's.

526
00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:22,640
Speaker 4: Where I'm gonna go. I wanted John Somemrall, I said

527
00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:23,200
Speaker 4: I wanted.

528
00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:25,320
Speaker 1: John Some did say that in fairness day, and he said,

529
00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:26,960
Speaker 1: John Summerroll College.

530
00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:29,840
Speaker 2: I remember it like it was yesterday. Kept asking who.

531
00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:33,760
Speaker 4: So I have my next guy who has to look

532
00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:36,240
Speaker 4: at it himself in the mirror and just admit he's

533
00:24:36,359 --> 00:24:38,879
Speaker 4: not the fit at this school and Michigan is a

534
00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:42,359
Speaker 4: lot better fit for him. Caitlin de Boor, lose to

535
00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:44,520
Speaker 4: Oklahoma in the first round of the playoffs, get on

536
00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:47,000
Speaker 4: the first flight to ann Arbor. You're not cut out

537
00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:49,360
Speaker 4: for the SEC, buddy, I'm telling you that right now.

538
00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:51,640
Speaker 2: What if his kids don't want to lose that game?

539
00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:55,600
Speaker 6: I mean, what if you're gonna anyway?

540
00:24:56,040 --> 00:24:58,639
Speaker 2: That cut out for the SEC? The Big ten is

541
00:24:58,720 --> 00:24:59,480
Speaker 2: right right there.

542
00:25:00,520 --> 00:25:02,000
Speaker 1: It'd be great if Kaylin de Bora all of a

543
00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:05,360
Speaker 1: sudden announces like half his starting defenses out wide receivers

544
00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:07,920
Speaker 1: are missing, just because he wants to type the game

545
00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:09,959
Speaker 1: so we can get himself back to Michigan.

546
00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:12,160
Speaker 2: I am telling you there are a ton of coaches.

547
00:25:11,840 --> 00:25:14,600
Speaker 1: Out there have already taken new jobs who regret taking

548
00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:16,480
Speaker 1: those jobs because they would have had a chance of.

549
00:25:16,560 --> 00:25:17,800
Speaker 2: Being the Michigan head coach.

550
00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:26,640
Speaker 1: I'm telling you, of course, yeah, yeah.

551
00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:26,200
Speaker 3: If only they'd heard the scuttle. But that's been going

552
00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:29,000
Speaker 3: on for months at Michigan. Somebody get a reporter to Michigan.

553
00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:31,879
Speaker 3: I'm sorry I shouldn't say that, So I for.

554
00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:34,760
Speaker 4: Being honest here. I think I meant to say I

555
00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:36,240
Speaker 4: know college football, and then I just.

556
00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:39,160
Speaker 2: Like college football.

557
00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:42,960
Speaker 1: I like you leaning into that I am college football.

558
00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:45,600
Speaker 6: By the way, name of the episode.

559
00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:49,560
Speaker 2: What I am college football? Yes, I think he meant

560
00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:51,720
Speaker 2: it as I am college football. I do. He certainly

561
00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:52,640
Speaker 2: defended himself.

562
00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:54,840
Speaker 3: I mean, I mean there's not very many other in

563
00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:56,320
Speaker 3: the game that have played it.

564
00:25:57,840 --> 00:26:00,159
Speaker 2: Let's say, if we were to deem a person in

565
00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:03,560
Speaker 2: college for mccollins, who would it be?

566
00:26:03,560 --> 00:26:07,399
Speaker 1: Because I feel like Kirk herbs reprobably fancies himself.

567
00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:10,520
Speaker 2: He started doing NFL games. He's just football. He's not.

568
00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:15,760
Speaker 1: What you think Tebow fancies himself as college football.

569
00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:19,040
Speaker 2: I don't think No, I think he is Jesus. I

570
00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:21,760
Speaker 2: think he fancies himself as the new Jesus.

571
00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:25,560
Speaker 1: Do you think Pat McAfee fancies himself as college football?

572
00:26:25,680 --> 00:26:28,160
Speaker 2: No, No, he's entertainer.

573
00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:34,280
Speaker 3: He's Rhys Davis college football. No, too wide, to too

574
00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:35,760
Speaker 3: large a resume, right.

575
00:26:36,080 --> 00:26:39,320
Speaker 2: Lee Corso college football closer.

576
00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:42,840
Speaker 1: I'd be happier with Corso as college football than you.

577
00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:46,720
Speaker 3: That's Corso retired. Though Corso's done, somebody took it over.

578
00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:49,840
Speaker 3: We didn't notice. We didn't notice, but Taylor was back

579
00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:50,600
Speaker 3: there saying, give.

580
00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:54,920
Speaker 2: Me those rains. Finally Corso's out. Now I'm college football.

581
00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:57,320
Speaker 3: You didn't notice him because he was wearing a big

582
00:26:57,359 --> 00:26:59,760
Speaker 3: giant mascot head and he just tried the reins right

583
00:26:59,760 --> 00:27:02,119
Speaker 3: from It's so great?

584
00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:06,080
Speaker 2: So what do you is he What do you imagine?

585
00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:08,119
Speaker 2: What do you imagine going on right now?

586
00:27:08,680 --> 00:27:12,560
Speaker 1: Like, so I think Michigan they do their diligence, they

587
00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:15,239
Speaker 1: fire him, and no one expects what happens next, And

588
00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:17,840
Speaker 1: so what do you think is happening right now inside

589
00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:20,600
Speaker 1: the athletic program at the University of Michigan, Because this

590
00:27:20,640 --> 00:27:22,080
Speaker 1: has become a scary story.

591
00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:26,080
Speaker 2: This is like, hey, listen, how did an affair? We

592
00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:26,840
Speaker 2: fire you?

593
00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:29,880
Speaker 1: The next step on this is something that no one,

594
00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:32,800
Speaker 1: not even the people at Michigan could foresee, and so

595
00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:35,040
Speaker 1: it has to be jarring up there right like no

596
00:27:35,080 --> 00:27:35,920
Speaker 1: one expects him.

597
00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:39,199
Speaker 2: To do what he actually did allegedly. You know, yeah, no,

598
00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:40,800
Speaker 2: I was imagining we were going to move on to

599
00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:42,080
Speaker 2: another subject.

600
00:27:42,280 --> 00:27:44,280
Speaker 1: Half five burning NBA questions, But I want to stay

601
00:27:44,320 --> 00:27:46,600
Speaker 1: here because I think it's a fascinating consent on fire.

602
00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:49,320
Speaker 3: What do I imagine going on in that? I mean, look,

603
00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:52,440
Speaker 3: I think they're all in damage control. I think it

604
00:27:52,520 --> 00:27:55,600
Speaker 3: is Hey, let's establish what the rules are again because

605
00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:58,000
Speaker 3: this can't happen again. And I think that they are

606
00:27:58,119 --> 00:28:00,840
Speaker 3: I mean probably low key. I didn't about a new

607
00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:02,440
Speaker 3: college head coach.

608
00:28:02,640 --> 00:28:05,000
Speaker 1: I'm just wondering what the fuck the school was investigating

609
00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:07,680
Speaker 1: when the guy gave her a fifty five percent raise

610
00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:10,200
Speaker 1: out of nowhere and no one thought, hey, red flags

611
00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:12,520
Speaker 1: beat Ohio State.

612
00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:16,119
Speaker 4: So I think the the athletic director at Michigan right

613
00:28:16,119 --> 00:28:19,280
Speaker 4: now is just thinking, like, can somebody tell Brian Kelly

614
00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:20,240
Speaker 4: to please stop calling?

615
00:28:20,359 --> 00:28:20,800
Speaker 2: Seriously?

616
00:28:23,160 --> 00:28:25,800
Speaker 3: He keeps working out these Michigan accents. I don't really

617
00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:28,040
Speaker 3: know if it's if it really works.

618
00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:29,159
Speaker 2: I don't love Brian Kelly.

619
00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:31,800
Speaker 1: Do you have Brian Kelly parked right outside of the

620
00:28:31,800 --> 00:28:33,080
Speaker 1: Michigan Athletic Department?

621
00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:35,440
Speaker 2: Is that right now? Climbing over and over again.

622
00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:38,080
Speaker 4: He's circling it like sharks right now?

623
00:28:38,360 --> 00:28:41,920
Speaker 2: Oh, so he's not parked, he's just driving around. Yeah,

624
00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:43,720
Speaker 2: he can't stay still, So what are you doing? You

625
00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:45,800
Speaker 2: drive around? You have a few people spot you.

626
00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:48,360
Speaker 1: And then they say, hey, Brian Kelly's lurking around, Like

627
00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:49,280

Speaker 2: Okay, are you ready? Is it? I think so?

666
00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:05,240
Speaker 1: I'm burning NBA questions as the man the NBA Cup.

667
00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:08,600
Speaker 2: You know, I'm over it. The heater are out.

668
00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:11,080
Speaker 1: It's really getting I mean, we're getting to the good parts.

669
00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:14,600
Speaker 1: I'm with Francesa. The Cup is ridiculous. That was the

670
00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:18,520
Speaker 1: most predictable. Friends, that's opinion of all time. That in

671
00:31:18,560 --> 00:31:19,600
Speaker 1: college sports is dead.

672
00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:21,480
Speaker 2: He's right.

673
00:31:21,680 --> 00:31:25,480
Speaker 1: How do you feel about that? College football?

674
00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:26,640
Speaker 2: He can't talk now, he's dead.

675
00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:31,640
Speaker 1: Princesses said, your sport is dead. You might be college football.

676
00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:38,240
Speaker 2: He's sports. Anyway, here we go. Is he five burning NBA.

677
00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:42,080
Speaker 1: Questions on a Thursday Joe Missoula Coach of the Year.

678
00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:47,120
Speaker 6: Maybe?

679
00:31:47,280 --> 00:31:47,400
Speaker 2: No.

680
00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:50,880
Speaker 3: It is pretty funny that I was reading clips about

681
00:31:50,920 --> 00:31:55,560
Speaker 3: them and how they're just doing the same thing that

682
00:31:55,600 --> 00:31:58,040
Speaker 3: they did with Jason Tatum, which has just launch a

683
00:31:58,040 --> 00:32:00,239
Speaker 3: bunch of threes and it's just not a whole lot

684
00:32:00,280 --> 00:32:01,280
Speaker 3: of fun to look at.

685
00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:03,760
Speaker 2: But they've got some good players.

686
00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:06,840
Speaker 3: Man, Derek White, I think is just one of the

687
00:32:06,880 --> 00:32:09,320
Speaker 3: most if not the most underrated player in the league.

688
00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:11,360
Speaker 3: And obviously Jalen Brown is still out there taking a

689
00:32:11,360 --> 00:32:16,120
Speaker 3: bunch of shots. Missoula should be credited for what he's

690
00:32:16,120 --> 00:32:18,720
Speaker 3: doing there. But to be honest, when you look at

691
00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:21,160
Speaker 3: the Eastern Conference, you know the Heat have fallen off,

692
00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:23,160
Speaker 3: the Raptors seem to have fallen off a little bit.

693
00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:25,920
Speaker 3: It's basically been a two team race up there with

694
00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:29,440
Speaker 3: Detroit and New York. So Boston hanging in a team

695
00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:31,720
Speaker 3: that knows how to win not too shocking. I don't

696
00:32:31,720 --> 00:32:34,560
Speaker 3: know if they can still stay in the top six,

697
00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:36,280
Speaker 3: but if they stay healthy, they got a pretty good chance.

698
00:32:36,280 --> 00:32:40,480
Speaker 1: So I to to be fifteen to nine, win five straight,

699
00:32:40,520 --> 00:32:42,720
Speaker 1: be third in the Eastern Conference without Jason Tatum is

700
00:32:42,760 --> 00:32:44,320
Speaker 1: pretty impressive, right, I mean.

701
00:32:44,360 --> 00:32:47,640
Speaker 3: It is, And I think, you know, Joe Mizzoula is

702
00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:50,000
Speaker 3: just probably the most interesting coach in the league, and

703
00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:52,160
Speaker 3: I think for him to win Coach of the Year,

704
00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:53,760
Speaker 3: I think people would vote for it just for the

705
00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:54,480
Speaker 3: press conference.

706
00:32:55,080 --> 00:32:57,480
Speaker 1: By the way, you think Ruden is poking around Michigan

707
00:32:57,800 --> 00:32:58,600
Speaker 1: college football?

708
00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:01,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, that's where you want to go from this

709
00:33:01,520 --> 00:33:05,000
Speaker 3: scandal to another scandal. I don't know, right, it's not

710
00:33:05,120 --> 00:33:08,120
Speaker 3: Tom Brady, You are right, somebody cleaner.

711
00:33:10,280 --> 00:33:10,760
Speaker 2: Here we go.

712
00:33:10,920 --> 00:33:18,000
Speaker 1: NBA burning question number two. Lakers worse with Lebron.

713
00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:22,240
Speaker 3: That's a great question. I don't know if they're worse

714
00:33:22,280 --> 00:33:27,000
Speaker 3: with Lebron overall. Their defense sucks. Their defense with Lebron

715
00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:30,760
Speaker 3: is terrible. Like I did not have the whimby list

716
00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:34,240
Speaker 3: Spurs just getting every shot they wanted in that first

717
00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:36,840
Speaker 3: half last night, and I think that's what basically they

718
00:33:36,840 --> 00:33:39,040
Speaker 3: said after the game is like, listen, I don't really

719
00:33:39,040 --> 00:33:41,200
Speaker 3: care about offense. We've got to figure out this defense now.

720
00:33:41,520 --> 00:33:43,800
Speaker 3: It ended up being a little bit better because the

721
00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:48,600
Speaker 3: Spurs shot fifty percent for the game, But Lakers defense

722
00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:52,560
Speaker 3: is bad with Lebron out there. Lebron's old Austin Reeves

723
00:33:52,680 --> 00:33:55,800
Speaker 3: is a target. Luka Doncic is a target like DeAndre

724
00:33:55,920 --> 00:33:59,719
Speaker 3: Ayton is not exactly a defensive stalwart. So it's a

725
00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:03,840
Speaker 3: lot pressure on whoever they have as defensive you know,

726
00:34:03,960 --> 00:34:06,960
Speaker 3: specialists on that team. Because those four names I just

727
00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:09,520
Speaker 3: gave you, other teams are looking at and saying, yeah,

728
00:34:09,560 --> 00:34:10,359
Speaker 3: we can eat them up.

729
00:34:10,760 --> 00:34:14,400
Speaker 2: Yep. Question number three New York Knicks a Yannis away.

730
00:34:15,520 --> 00:34:18,840
Speaker 3: I gotta can I pepper you a little bit with this, Taylor,

731
00:34:19,400 --> 00:34:22,200
Speaker 3: because I was giving you a hard time earlier in

732
00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:23,640
Speaker 3: the season, just because the Heat were on a little

733
00:34:23,640 --> 00:34:27,640
Speaker 3: bit of a streak. But I do believe the Knicks

734
00:34:27,640 --> 00:34:30,080
Speaker 3: are one of the three best teams in the Eastern Conference.

735
00:34:30,600 --> 00:34:34,000
Speaker 3: But I somehow in the same breath, don't believe they're

736
00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:36,160
Speaker 3: going to be better than last year. And if you

737
00:34:36,200 --> 00:34:38,959
Speaker 3: look at Karl Anthony Towns, Taylor, yes or no, Karl

738
00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:42,520
Speaker 3: Anthony Towns is the player that can be the biggest

739
00:34:42,520 --> 00:34:48,640
Speaker 3: difference from conference champion to I'm sorry, from conference championship

740
00:34:49,040 --> 00:34:53,040
Speaker 3: appearance to NBA Finals appearance. It's he the biggest difference,

741
00:34:53,080 --> 00:34:55,600
Speaker 3: the biggest leap the Knicks have to make. His performance

742
00:34:55,640 --> 00:34:56,280
Speaker 3: in the playoffs.

743
00:34:56,600 --> 00:34:58,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, just because it feels like you could count on

744
00:34:58,560 --> 00:35:02,440
Speaker 4: Jalen Brunson and we really haven't seen Kat turn that

745
00:35:02,520 --> 00:35:05,279
Speaker 4: switch on for a sustained period of time.

746
00:35:05,360 --> 00:35:07,440
Speaker 2: Well, he's been good, he just hasn't been consistent. That's

747
00:35:07,480 --> 00:35:08,360
Speaker 2: all right, right.

748
00:35:08,280 --> 00:35:09,799
Speaker 3: Right, He's he can have all good game and then

749
00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:12,239
Speaker 3: I'll have two stinkers and it's just not good enough. Now,

750
00:35:12,239 --> 00:35:14,839
Speaker 3: if you look at Karl Anthony Towns this season, yeah,

751
00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:17,239
Speaker 3: the Knicks have been doing well, He's not been doing

752
00:35:17,239 --> 00:35:20,279
Speaker 3: so hot like he's had. Actually, he's having actually, in

753
00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:24,720
Speaker 3: terms of numbers, one of the worst seasons of his career.

754
00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:27,759
Speaker 2: The twenty two Hang on me, look at this real quick.

755
00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:32,000
Speaker 3: The twenty two points a game is not the worst

756
00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:34,200
Speaker 3: like He's had a couple of seasons lower, but the

757
00:35:34,239 --> 00:35:37,040
Speaker 3: forty six percent shooting, that's the lowest of his career.

758
00:35:37,640 --> 00:35:40,200
Speaker 3: The three point shooting thirty five percent, lowest since his

759
00:35:40,280 --> 00:35:44,759
Speaker 3: rookie year. You know, say what you will about other

760
00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:46,760
Speaker 3: parts of his game. His rebounds are there or whatever.

761
00:35:47,160 --> 00:35:49,279
Speaker 3: Never really been a shot blocker. He needs to be

762
00:35:49,320 --> 00:35:52,360
Speaker 3: more efficient. And if he's not more efficient, then I

763
00:35:52,400 --> 00:35:54,040
Speaker 3: don't think they're going to be better than they.

764
00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:54,640
Speaker 2: Were last year.

765
00:35:54,719 --> 00:35:59,160
Speaker 3: So I'm just curious as a Knicks fan, if you

766
00:35:59,239 --> 00:36:01,560
Speaker 3: are bought in or if it's just a matter of

767
00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:03,600
Speaker 3: that he's not that good, we're gonna take it.

768
00:36:04,920 --> 00:36:06,520
Speaker 4: So I'm kind of bought in, and I just seeing

769
00:36:06,520 --> 00:36:09,040
Speaker 4: what Mike Brown could do with this core once they

770
00:36:09,080 --> 00:36:11,960
Speaker 4: get to the playoffs. That's why I wasn't too worried

771
00:36:12,320 --> 00:36:16,640
Speaker 4: about when you're saying the Miami heater coming. I look

772
00:36:16,640 --> 00:36:18,640
Speaker 4: at life through the windshield, not the rear view mirror,

773
00:36:18,680 --> 00:36:20,799
Speaker 4: and that and the heater is so far behind us

774
00:36:20,840 --> 00:36:23,439
Speaker 4: right now, it's like, oh, well, what am I Tyler

775
00:36:23,480 --> 00:36:25,080
Speaker 4: Herroes back, big whoop?

776
00:36:25,920 --> 00:36:27,360
Speaker 2: Mike Brown is coaching the Knicks.

777
00:36:29,480 --> 00:36:34,000
Speaker 3: What you remember Tom Thibodau, right, what happened to Thibbs,

778
00:36:35,440 --> 00:36:36,440
Speaker 3: he's hating on the Knicks.

779
00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:37,880
Speaker 2: I know that, huh.

780
00:36:37,920 --> 00:36:41,600
Speaker 3: But the Knicks defense has gotten better last few games.

781
00:36:42,560 --> 00:36:43,800
Speaker 3: Is it sustainable?

782
00:36:44,520 --> 00:36:45,799
Speaker 2: Is it? You know? Again?

783
00:36:45,880 --> 00:36:48,480
Speaker 3: Can you rely on Karl Anthony Towns? Are Michale Bridges

784
00:36:48,680 --> 00:36:50,680
Speaker 3: and ogn and Obi like? Are they going to be

785
00:36:50,719 --> 00:36:52,640
Speaker 3: able to play this good last season?

786
00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:54,320
Speaker 2: Long? We'll see, But I think.

787
00:36:54,640 --> 00:36:56,840
Speaker 1: I'm gonna cut you off because it was a simple question.

788
00:36:57,000 --> 00:36:59,279
Speaker 1: Are the Knicks of Giannis away? I mean yes?

789
00:36:59,400 --> 00:36:59,560
Speaker 2: Or no?

790
00:36:59,719 --> 00:37:04,319
Speaker 3: I mean yes, They'll never They're in that position where

791
00:37:04,320 --> 00:37:06,960
Speaker 3: they'll never get Yannis with what they have to offer

792
00:37:07,320 --> 00:37:08,880
Speaker 3: unless Milwaukee is sold.

793
00:37:08,680 --> 00:37:11,200
Speaker 2: On Karl Anthony Towns. And I think that ship has sailed.

794
00:37:11,200 --> 00:37:14,480
Speaker 3: Nobody's going to be sold on centerpiece Carl Anthony Towns anymore.

795
00:37:14,480 --> 00:37:15,840
Speaker 2: Well, the Knicks were sold on it.

796
00:37:16,160 --> 00:37:18,560
Speaker 3: Well, Jaylen Browns there sent piece. He was the second

797
00:37:18,560 --> 00:37:20,680
Speaker 3: piece and if you send him to Milwaukee, he will

798
00:37:20,719 --> 00:37:21,560
Speaker 3: be the first piece again.

799
00:37:22,560 --> 00:37:27,320
Speaker 1: Question number four here Oklahoma City Thunder or the field.

800
00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:32,719
Speaker 3: I'm taking the Thunder because it's ridiculous. Like I will

801
00:37:32,719 --> 00:37:37,160
Speaker 3: say this though they have an achilles heel that I

802
00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:40,799
Speaker 3: think there's one team that's ready to pounce and take

803
00:37:40,800 --> 00:37:43,880
Speaker 3: over and that's the Houston Rockets. Like, not only do

804
00:37:43,960 --> 00:37:47,200
Speaker 3: the Rockets have I do, I do, and they continue

805
00:37:47,239 --> 00:37:50,120
Speaker 3: to prove to me that there's a reason for it.

806
00:37:50,160 --> 00:37:52,600
Speaker 3: They have the size that's going to disrupt Oklahoma City.

807
00:37:52,600 --> 00:37:55,480
Speaker 3: That's what they've had an issue with over the last

808
00:37:55,520 --> 00:37:57,440
Speaker 3: two years. Now, granted last year some of that was

809
00:37:57,440 --> 00:38:00,120
Speaker 3: because chet Holmegren was out for a decent amount of

810
00:38:00,160 --> 00:38:05,000
Speaker 3: time in the regular season, but legitimate thick dudes always

811
00:38:05,040 --> 00:38:07,560
Speaker 3: they have a problem with. And Steven Adams and Alprin

812
00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:10,839
Speaker 3: Shangoun might be the best duo of thick dudes in

813
00:38:10,880 --> 00:38:13,200
Speaker 3: the league. And they're the best rebounding team in the league,

814
00:38:13,280 --> 00:38:15,759
Speaker 3: and they slow the game down, and they have an

815
00:38:15,800 --> 00:38:19,200
Speaker 3: individual defender and the men Thompson who can probably do

816
00:38:19,239 --> 00:38:21,320
Speaker 3: as good a job as anybody else on Shae Gilders

817
00:38:21,360 --> 00:38:25,680
Speaker 3: Alexander So another year of experience with Kevin Durant to

818
00:38:25,760 --> 00:38:28,640
Speaker 3: sort of stabilize your half court game. I think Houston's

819
00:38:28,680 --> 00:38:31,520
Speaker 3: built to beat okay See. Not saying they will, but

820
00:38:31,600 --> 00:38:33,600
Speaker 3: they are built to beat okay See. And if you

821
00:38:33,640 --> 00:38:35,960
Speaker 3: look at the Golden State season where they went seventy

822
00:38:35,960 --> 00:38:39,879
Speaker 3: three and nine, all it took was one sweat wet

823
00:38:39,960 --> 00:38:42,600
Speaker 3: spot on the floor in Houston for Steph Curry to

824
00:38:42,600 --> 00:38:44,319
Speaker 3: injure his knee and then all of a sudden, he's

825
00:38:44,320 --> 00:38:46,600
Speaker 3: playing the rest of the playoffs not one hundred percent.

826
00:38:47,480 --> 00:38:50,560
Speaker 3: If that happens to Shay, there isn't a team maybe

827
00:38:50,560 --> 00:38:52,319
Speaker 3: maybe the Lakers, I don't know. There isn't a team

828
00:38:52,360 --> 00:38:55,319
Speaker 3: that's so dependent on their number one guy as Shay

829
00:38:55,360 --> 00:38:58,360
Speaker 3: Guilders Alexander, and so if he is not one hundred percent,

830
00:38:58,560 --> 00:39:00,640
Speaker 3: that's all it takes for them to go from an

831
00:39:00,680 --> 00:39:04,040
Speaker 3: unstoppable force to just another team in the playoffs.

832
00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:08,200
Speaker 4: Stue twenty five games into the season on FanDuel NBA

833
00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:12,279
Speaker 4: Finals Odds, the Thunder plus one ten.

834
00:39:12,680 --> 00:39:15,719
Speaker 1: Oh my god, that has to be a record. I mean,

835
00:39:15,760 --> 00:39:17,160
Speaker 1: they're essentially a lock.

836
00:39:17,800 --> 00:39:21,319
Speaker 3: It's crazy too, because it feels like the rest of

837
00:39:21,320 --> 00:39:23,960
Speaker 3: the league rather like is looking at it and saying,

838
00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:26,799
Speaker 3: let's make sure that doesn't happen. And I think that's

839
00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:29,000
Speaker 3: what I'm not saying. That there's GM saying, oh, let's

840
00:39:29,040 --> 00:39:31,640
Speaker 3: get Yannis to a place where they can compete with

841
00:39:31,680 --> 00:39:34,239
Speaker 3: the Thunder. But I think everybody in the league is

842
00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:37,160
Speaker 3: probably like, it's not bad that the Thunder of this

843
00:39:37,280 --> 00:39:39,840
Speaker 3: good We just love for them to have some competition.

844
00:39:40,200 --> 00:39:43,120
Speaker 3: So maybe if Yannis goes here, maybe if John Morant

845
00:39:43,160 --> 00:39:46,840
Speaker 3: goes there, maybe there'll be something to do, something someone

846
00:39:46,920 --> 00:39:47,880
Speaker 3: with them to compete.

847
00:39:48,760 --> 00:39:50,160
Speaker 2: But right now it does not look good.

848
00:39:50,440 --> 00:39:52,680
Speaker 1: I heard Kendrick Perkins last night on Sports Center with

849
00:39:52,719 --> 00:39:55,240
Speaker 1: Scott Van Pelt say that shake Gilgess.

850
00:39:55,280 --> 00:39:56,920
Speaker 2: Alexander over the last year and a.

851
00:39:56,920 --> 00:40:01,040
Speaker 1: Half has been he's been Michael Jordan and Scott had

852
00:40:01,080 --> 00:40:06,600
Speaker 1: the same reaction that I did. K Perk, do me

853
00:40:06,640 --> 00:40:11,640
Speaker 1: a favor. Slow down. He's not even Kobe Bryant. I mean,

854
00:40:11,880 --> 00:40:15,160
Speaker 1: he's not even Larry Bird. He hasn't reached Magic Johnson

855
00:40:15,280 --> 00:40:18,960
Speaker 1: level yet, and we're already putting him in Michael Jordan's category.

856
00:40:19,360 --> 00:40:24,560
Speaker 1: He won one championship, one okay, five to go really

857
00:40:24,600 --> 00:40:26,040
Speaker 1: eight my personal record book.

858
00:40:26,280 --> 00:40:27,600
Speaker 2: But why are we doing that?

859
00:40:27,840 --> 00:40:30,560
Speaker 1: Why do we have to go straight from one title

860
00:40:30,680 --> 00:40:31,600
Speaker 1: best player.

861
00:40:31,280 --> 00:40:32,879
Speaker 2: In the Land, best player in the land.

862
00:40:32,880 --> 00:40:35,200
Speaker 1: Why do they call it the land best player, best

863
00:40:35,200 --> 00:40:38,120
Speaker 1: player in the world over the last year and a half.

864
00:40:38,400 --> 00:40:40,960
Speaker 1: Why do we have to go from that to Michael Jordan?

865
00:40:41,320 --> 00:40:43,560
Speaker 1: There are a few stops along the way, is he

866
00:40:43,600 --> 00:40:49,240
Speaker 1: I mean, it's yeah, I think where you are naturally thinking.

867
00:40:49,320 --> 00:40:51,840
Speaker 3: It's like, Okay, he's not there yet, He'll never be

868
00:40:52,000 --> 00:40:54,680
Speaker 3: there where. I think that perk is saying, if he

869
00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:57,399
Speaker 3: continues this path, he is on that path.

870
00:40:57,800 --> 00:41:00,680
Speaker 2: Because what if I told you then shake goies.

871
00:41:00,760 --> 00:41:04,080
Speaker 3: Alexander this year is averaging thirty two point six points

872
00:41:04,120 --> 00:41:07,000
Speaker 3: on fifty six percent shooting.

873
00:41:07,160 --> 00:41:08,719
Speaker 2: I know, and forty did that.

874
00:41:09,200 --> 00:41:11,920
Speaker 3: No, and Michael never did that. He shot three fifty

875
00:41:11,960 --> 00:41:14,360
Speaker 3: four in his first MVP season and everybody was like,

876
00:41:14,400 --> 00:41:15,400
Speaker 3: this man is a god.

877
00:41:15,760 --> 00:41:18,120
Speaker 2: Shay is doing better than that. You're right, Michael never

878
00:41:18,239 --> 00:41:21,120
Speaker 2: did that. He had a championship and in the back pocket,

879
00:41:21,320 --> 00:41:22,799
Speaker 2: but Michael never did that. You're right.

880
00:41:22,840 --> 00:41:25,000
Speaker 1: You know what he did. He dunked. You know what

881
00:41:25,080 --> 00:41:27,640
Speaker 1: else he did. He went back to back three peats.

882
00:41:27,680 --> 00:41:29,279
Speaker 1: You know what else he did. He would have won

883
00:41:29,320 --> 00:41:31,719
Speaker 1: eighth street NBA titles had he not taken two years

884
00:41:31,719 --> 00:41:34,000
Speaker 1: off because the NBA forced him to do it. You

885
00:41:34,000 --> 00:41:36,440
Speaker 1: know what else he did, He won a national championship

886
00:41:36,440 --> 00:41:36,960
Speaker 1: in college.

887
00:41:37,080 --> 00:41:39,480
Speaker 2: I mean, he's the goat. I mean seriously, so, the

888
00:41:39,520 --> 00:41:41,640
Speaker 2: only way Shaye, the only way Shaye.

889
00:41:41,560 --> 00:41:43,799
Speaker 3: Can even compare in your record book is to win

890
00:41:43,840 --> 00:41:46,799
Speaker 3: the next seven titles straight, right, because in your record book.

891
00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:50,200
Speaker 1: Brand donks yeah, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, six

892
00:41:50,280 --> 00:41:51,440
Speaker 1: titles while dunking.

893
00:41:51,680 --> 00:41:52,759
Speaker 2: That's all right.

894
00:41:52,800 --> 00:41:54,839
Speaker 6: Go back to college and win one, two, and.

895
00:41:54,840 --> 00:41:56,960
Speaker 2: Go back to college and win a national championship.

896
00:41:57,040 --> 00:41:59,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, yep while hitting a buzzer beater.

897
00:41:59,480 --> 00:41:59,680
Speaker 2: Yep.

898
00:42:00,080 --> 00:42:05,120
Speaker 1: More right, dream team Yep. He plays for Canada, win

899
00:42:05,160 --> 00:42:07,279
Speaker 1: a gold medal. Oh well, he's never gonna win one.

900
00:42:07,400 --> 00:42:10,919
Speaker 6: I mean, win one with Canada. That should take away too.

901
00:42:11,560 --> 00:42:13,320
Speaker 2: He's the greatest player in the land. Does that include

902
00:42:13,360 --> 00:42:13,880
Speaker 2: Canada or.

903
00:42:13,960 --> 00:42:15,759
Speaker 1: Well no, Actually, if you're in the land, I can't

904
00:42:15,800 --> 00:42:17,840
Speaker 1: believe I said that. If you win one with Canada,

905
00:42:18,040 --> 00:42:20,600
Speaker 1: I might be willing to have at least the Larry

906
00:42:20,640 --> 00:42:21,560
Speaker 1: Bird conversation.

907
00:42:21,840 --> 00:42:24,240
Speaker 2: All right, he might not even be the best player

908
00:42:24,239 --> 00:42:27,120
Speaker 2: west of the Mississippi. He might not be the best

909
00:42:27,160 --> 00:42:33,279
Speaker 2: player in that Organization's his theory might not be top two.

910
00:42:33,920 --> 00:42:36,000
Speaker 2: K Burk got caught out. Listen, I've been there. He

911
00:42:36,040 --> 00:42:37,799
Speaker 2: got caught up in the moment. All right, he did

912
00:42:38,320 --> 00:42:40,680
Speaker 2: get Careada, But he doesn't a lot of question.

913
00:42:41,560 --> 00:42:43,160
Speaker 3: What's that He doesn't really have a whole lot of

914
00:42:43,160 --> 00:42:45,200
Speaker 3: hangtime perke and caught up in the air.

915
00:42:45,200 --> 00:42:47,160
Speaker 2: It is not really thing that he does. It was

916
00:42:47,200 --> 00:42:49,400
Speaker 2: where Scott van Pelt had this reaction.

917
00:42:49,160 --> 00:42:51,440
Speaker 1: Like, how dare you compare him to Michael Jordan? And

918
00:42:51,440 --> 00:42:54,000
Speaker 1: then he did and it made sense. And then Scott

919
00:42:54,120 --> 00:42:55,919
Speaker 1: vam pelp wanted to say what I would have said,

920
00:42:55,920 --> 00:42:58,320
Speaker 1: which is, do me a favorite sprinkle and a dunk

921
00:42:58,680 --> 00:43:00,640
Speaker 1: because he gave all those shooting percent it is out.

922
00:43:01,800 --> 00:43:03,000
Speaker 1: What's his dunk percentage?

923
00:43:03,320 --> 00:43:05,680
Speaker 2: I'm so glad you still watch Sports Center. Thanks, somebody

924
00:43:05,719 --> 00:43:05,960
Speaker 2: has to.

925
00:43:06,200 --> 00:43:11,839
Speaker 1: That's how I get caught up on sports question number

926
00:43:11,920 --> 00:43:14,280
Speaker 1: five Hooper fleg bufs.

927
00:43:16,920 --> 00:43:19,480
Speaker 3: That question keeps getting funnier because he keeps getting better

928
00:43:19,520 --> 00:43:22,279
Speaker 3: and better. But there is this funny there's this fun

929
00:43:22,320 --> 00:43:25,760
Speaker 3: conversation around Dallas now, which I know it's not shocking

930
00:43:25,800 --> 00:43:29,120
Speaker 3: to everybody now that Nico has been fired, but is Anthony.

931
00:43:28,800 --> 00:43:31,880
Speaker 2: Davis going to get traded? If Anthony Davis gets traded,

932
00:43:31,920 --> 00:43:35,200
Speaker 2: does that do anything for you? Stud? Does he like nothing? Right?

933
00:43:35,600 --> 00:43:38,200
Speaker 3: Like the second he got there and then this year

934
00:43:38,480 --> 00:43:40,680
Speaker 3: was starting the year hurt and then you're showing images

935
00:43:40,680 --> 00:43:42,440
Speaker 3: of him and he just looks huge, and I'm just

936
00:43:42,480 --> 00:43:45,480
Speaker 3: like everybody could have predicted that this was the path

937
00:43:45,560 --> 00:43:48,000
Speaker 3: that was this is what's going to happen, and I

938
00:43:48,080 --> 00:43:50,680
Speaker 3: just I mean, look, he could go to a handful

939
00:43:50,719 --> 00:43:53,080
Speaker 3: of teams and make a huge difference, But Anthony Davis

940
00:43:53,120 --> 00:43:55,960
Speaker 3: is I think we're past the point where Anthony Davis

941
00:43:56,040 --> 00:43:59,640
Speaker 3: is considered somebody that you can rely on for an

942
00:43:59,680 --> 00:44:01,799
Speaker 3: organization to be your top two guy.

943
00:44:02,120 --> 00:44:03,520
Speaker 2: Period. Yes, I think.

944
00:44:03,360 --> 00:44:06,440
Speaker 3: He's a nice piece to a championship team now if

945
00:44:06,480 --> 00:44:07,160
Speaker 3: you can get him.

946
00:44:07,920 --> 00:44:09,280
Speaker 2: Is there a team that he could help.

947
00:44:10,640 --> 00:44:12,440
Speaker 1: Help win an NBA He did it with the Lakers,

948
00:44:12,480 --> 00:44:14,279
Speaker 1: I mean, to his credit, but I'm wondering if there's

949
00:44:14,280 --> 00:44:16,759
Speaker 1: another team out there that he could help.

950
00:44:16,840 --> 00:44:18,279
Speaker 2: I'll tell you would not want him as a New

951
00:44:18,360 --> 00:44:19,480
Speaker 2: York Nick Anthony Davis.

952
00:44:19,560 --> 00:44:20,640
Speaker 4: No, no, No.

953
00:44:20,960 --> 00:44:24,640
Speaker 3: The Detroit Pistons could use a half court sort of,

954
00:44:24,960 --> 00:44:27,520
Speaker 3: you know, guy down low that they could rely on.

955
00:44:28,320 --> 00:44:31,439
Speaker 3: If you can get him without having to trade Jalen Duran,

956
00:44:31,560 --> 00:44:35,160
Speaker 3: I would take them. I would take him. It's always

957
00:44:35,160 --> 00:44:37,960
Speaker 3: interesting to consider the Golden State Warriors in any trade, right,

958
00:44:38,040 --> 00:44:40,279
Speaker 3: they need to do something. I don't think a lot

959
00:44:40,320 --> 00:44:42,279
Speaker 3: of people think, even with a healthy staff, that they're

960
00:44:42,320 --> 00:44:45,680
Speaker 3: a contender. I don't think anybody wants Draymond green back,

961
00:44:45,719 --> 00:44:48,760
Speaker 3: but they might be dangling Draymond Green for an Anthony Davis,

962
00:44:48,800 --> 00:44:51,480
Speaker 3: that would be interesting. And then the only other place

963
00:44:51,560 --> 00:44:56,560
Speaker 3: that I would consider him to be an immediate like

964
00:44:56,640 --> 00:45:00,000
Speaker 3: game changer, yeah, would be san Antonio because if you

965
00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:02,839
Speaker 3: you've got him down low, and you've got Wemby effectively

966
00:45:03,360 --> 00:45:06,880
Speaker 3: like roaming, and just you got a second shot blocker.

967
00:45:06,920 --> 00:45:09,399
Speaker 3: I don't know who scores against san Antonio. So I'd

968
00:45:09,440 --> 00:45:13,400
Speaker 3: say those three teams are probably like, huh, Anthony Davis

969
00:45:13,480 --> 00:45:15,600
Speaker 3: might be playing in you know, the final four of

970
00:45:15,600 --> 00:45:16,080
Speaker 3: the NBA.

971
00:45:16,320 --> 00:45:17,640
Speaker 2: If he's on one of those three teams.

972
00:45:17,680 --> 00:45:19,360
Speaker 1: What would san Antonio will have to give up in

973
00:45:19,600 --> 00:45:22,960
Speaker 1: in terms of getting Anthony Davis? Because I agree with you,

974
00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:26,000
Speaker 1: that's the team right there. Like if Wemby and Anthony Davis.

975
00:45:26,239 --> 00:45:28,640
Speaker 1: Now it's a big if, but if they could stay healthy,

976
00:45:29,280 --> 00:45:31,799
Speaker 1: that would, at least for me, catapult them to one

977
00:45:31,840 --> 00:45:33,680
Speaker 1: of the you know, one of four teams that could

978
00:45:33,680 --> 00:45:35,160
Speaker 1: win an NBA championship this year.

979
00:45:35,840 --> 00:45:37,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, who would they have to give up?

980
00:45:37,560 --> 00:45:39,000
Speaker 3: They probably have to give up you know, one or

981
00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:42,440
Speaker 3: two of their maybe a Stefan Castle. They probably you know,

982
00:45:42,480 --> 00:45:45,200
Speaker 3: want to keep their draft pick from last year, Dylan Harper.

983
00:45:45,200 --> 00:45:47,600
Speaker 3: But I think they've got the thing about the Spurs

984
00:45:47,640 --> 00:45:50,839
Speaker 3: is they've got young pieces that other teams can be,

985
00:45:51,360 --> 00:45:54,560
Speaker 3: can fall in love with easily and could consider, you know.

986
00:45:54,680 --> 00:45:57,120
Speaker 3: And plus you're talking about Anthony Davis here like you're

987
00:45:57,160 --> 00:45:59,239
Speaker 3: not giving up the farm to catch him. He's no

988
00:45:59,280 --> 00:46:01,600
Speaker 3: longer somebody that attract that large of a trade.

989
00:46:01,360 --> 00:46:02,600
Speaker 2: Packet, is he?

990
00:46:02,640 --> 00:46:04,760
Speaker 1: All I'm saying with SGA in the comparisons to Michael

991
00:46:04,800 --> 00:46:07,000
Speaker 1: Jordan just stopped doing it, okay, because two years ago

992
00:46:07,040 --> 00:46:09,240
Speaker 1: it was Anthony Edwards that was he was Michael Jordan

993
00:46:09,360 --> 00:46:11,480
Speaker 1: and he's he stinks no
