11
00:00:30,840 --> 00:00:33,120

12

Speaker 2: be played and coached and spoken the man himself, the

13

Speaker 2: one and only. Can we have like a little intro here,

14
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:40,519
Speaker 2: mister Bucky Brooks, How are you?

15
00:00:41,880 --> 00:00:43,560
Speaker 3: I'm good, I'm I'm good. What's going on? Andy?

16
00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:46,120
Speaker 2: Everything is wonderful. And I just mentioned here that I

17
00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:48,159
Speaker 2: knew it was coming here. Thank you very much to

18
00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:51,680
Speaker 2: your live studio warnings with us today. I said this

19
00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:54,720
Speaker 2: you knew was coming. I'm talking about Yukon and I

20
00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:56,480
Speaker 2: finally figured it out. You know, it takes me a

21
00:00:56,480 --> 00:00:58,720
Speaker 2: little longer than others because I'm a little slow, I am.

22
00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:02,440
Speaker 2: I figured out why I'm not happy with this because

23
00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:05,200
Speaker 2: you knew Yukon early on this season. You figured it

24
00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:07,800
Speaker 2: was gonna be Purdue a Yukon, and you know everybody knew.

25
00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:12,480
Speaker 2: That's the difference I think between the NFL and college sports,

26
00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:15,959
Speaker 2: because you knew Yukon was the dominant team. You knew

27
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:18,759
Speaker 2: Purdue was a dominant team. I watched the game last

28
00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:21,319
Speaker 2: night and I said, Oh, don't make me stay up

29
00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:25,080
Speaker 2: all this time with this so late on Saturday night.

30
00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:26,920
Speaker 2: I got to get up early Sunday to told to

31
00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:29,880
Speaker 2: Bucky please, you know, open it up and ended early. No,

32
00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:32,280
Speaker 2: they did. They was tied at fifty six with about

33
00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:34,839
Speaker 2: ten eleven minutes to go, and then all of a sudden,

34
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:38,160
Speaker 2: you kind opened it up. Here. Look, dynasties are good

35
00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:41,560
Speaker 2: in Major League Baseball. Back in the day when the

36
00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:44,320
Speaker 2: Yankees dominated, it was great. Well, I've got there was

37
00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:46,640
Speaker 2: a villain. We talk about villains, and everybody wanted to

38
00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:49,480
Speaker 2: knock the Yankees off. When the Celtics were dominant in

39
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:52,080
Speaker 2: the sixties and seventies, people loved it because they came

40
00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:54,160
Speaker 2: to your town. If you had a team and everybody

41
00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:57,560
Speaker 2: wanted to knock them off in college basketball and college football.

42
00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:00,480
Speaker 2: I don't think it's healthy. When Alabama was the dominating

43
00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:02,600
Speaker 2: it wasn't good. I remember I read stories that the

44
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:06,000
Speaker 2: students in Tuscaloosa were staying in the libraries on Saturday.

45
00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:08,679
Speaker 2: They were bored about that football team. So I don't

46
00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:10,799
Speaker 2: think it's healthy. I don't think it's good, and I'm

47
00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:13,080
Speaker 2: not happy about it. And I'm more excited about watching

48
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:16,359
Speaker 2: the women's game this afternoon. How do you like that, Bucket, Brooks.

49
00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:20,200
Speaker 3: I mean, I liked it a lot. Look, I think

50
00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:23,840
Speaker 3: it's a different time. The fact that and because you

51
00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:26,280
Speaker 3: brought up the women's game, the fact that, I mean,

52
00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:30,120
Speaker 3: we may have seen the most viewers watch the women's

53
00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:34,280
Speaker 3: game well Yukon versus Iowa, than any other programming that

54
00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:37,799
Speaker 3: ESPN has had when it comes to basketball and their history.

55
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:41,200
Speaker 3: That's amazing to me. It does tell you that we've

56
00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:43,840
Speaker 3: had a little bit of a paradigm shift, not only

57
00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:48,200
Speaker 3: because of like people favoring women's sports or paying attention

58
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:50,880
Speaker 3: to women's sports. I think the thing about the women

59
00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:54,200
Speaker 3: is you have more time to grow attached to the stars.

60
00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:57,480
Speaker 3: And as much as I love college basketball, and as

61
00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:00,880
Speaker 3: I tuned in to watch both of the semi finals games.

62
00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:04,080
Speaker 3: You just don't know these players, you know, right, You

63
00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:07,720
Speaker 3: just don't have the star power in terms of like

64
00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:09,720
Speaker 3: just getting to know them. And Zach Ede is a

65
00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:11,560
Speaker 3: great player, like Player of the Year, two time Player

66
00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:14,600
Speaker 3: of the Year and those things, but you just don't

67
00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:17,720
Speaker 3: know them, and so there's not that connection that we

68
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:21,240
Speaker 3: normally have had to the men's tournament in the past.

69
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:24,000
Speaker 3: And that's why it's just a different game. It's fine,

70
00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:28,280
Speaker 3: it's okay, but it's not what March Mantin has used

71
00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:30,840
Speaker 3: to be. When it was Musty TV, everyone tuned in,

72
00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:33,040
Speaker 3: everyone to be a part of it, you know.

73
00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:35,200
Speaker 2: And I think there's a difference because you talk about

74
00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:37,360
Speaker 2: having a villain having a team that dominates. Yeah, South

75
00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:40,800
Speaker 2: Carolina dominates. They're undefeated and they're playing Iowa today, and

76
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:43,920
Speaker 2: in the same token, Yukon dominated and when they beat

77
00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:46,880
Speaker 2: Illinois they had that thirty nothing run. But there's a

78
00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:50,120
Speaker 2: difference as far as domination. I just you can't compare

79
00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:52,400
Speaker 2: them with Yukon. You just knew they were going to

80
00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:56,480
Speaker 2: win South Carolina, you know. Still they've had some rough spots.

81
00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:58,880
Speaker 2: They're undefeated for sure, and it's I don't think it's

82
00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:00,880
Speaker 2: a given that they're gonna be the with today. I

83
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:01,840
Speaker 2: just don't think they will.

84
00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:04,640
Speaker 3: Well, I mean, I don't think it's a given, but

85
00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:08,120
Speaker 3: it shouldn't be a given. And we'll talk about the

86
00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:12,160
Speaker 3: Yukon men because that was a struggle and I'm not

87
00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:15,440
Speaker 3: one hundred percent convinced they're just gonna walk over Perdue.

88
00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:18,159
Speaker 3: I would say this about the South Carolina women. The

89
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:22,120
Speaker 3: South Carolina Women graduated five or six ladies who went

90
00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:25,440
Speaker 3: on to go and play in the WNBA from a

91
00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:29,320
Speaker 3: super team, they took on a harder schedule, and yet

92
00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:31,320
Speaker 3: here they are with a bunch of newcomers and they're

93
00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:34,000
Speaker 3: right back in the championship game with an unbeaten record.

94
00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:38,040
Speaker 3: I think what don Staley has done is she has

95
00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:40,120
Speaker 3: raised the bar. She set the bar so high for

96
00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:43,720
Speaker 3: herself and her program that it's hard for us to

97
00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:48,080
Speaker 3: give her her just too. And it's not as dominant

98
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:50,400
Speaker 3: as it's been in the past. But the fact that

99
00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:52,440
Speaker 3: they're sitting right here in the championship game, number one

100
00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:55,080
Speaker 3: seed and they're undefeated, I do believe they do deserve

101
00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:57,000
Speaker 3: a lot of credit. No matter what it looks like.

102
00:04:57,400 --> 00:04:59,920
Speaker 3: That is something that's certainly hard to accomplish.

103
00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:02,360
Speaker 2: Right, and I'm looking at this Alabama, I'm impressed. I

104
00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:04,120
Speaker 2: tell you, I was impressed with Alabama. I didn't eve

105
00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:06,440
Speaker 2: think they'd stay that close. As I mentioned, it was

106
00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:08,640
Speaker 2: like fifty six at all, with about maybe ten eleven

107
00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:10,200
Speaker 2: minutes to go back on the ball game, and then

108
00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:12,520
Speaker 2: Yukon came out there with their eight nothing run and

109
00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:14,760
Speaker 2: it was goodbye, good night, Irene. That was it. But

110
00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:17,440
Speaker 2: I think when you look what they did, they shot

111
00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:20,479
Speaker 2: a level for twenty three threes forty seven percent, you know,

112
00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:23,240
Speaker 2: and that's what Alabama does. That's the Alabama's game is

113
00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:26,240
Speaker 2: jacking it up. They're throwing threes all day long. So

114
00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:29,839
Speaker 2: I mean, I think they shot something like what twenty

115
00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:31,960
Speaker 2: five threes, and they shot forty percent from the three

116
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:34,680
Speaker 2: point line, So you know, it's just a different game.

117
00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:36,839
Speaker 2: Now when the women shoot threes, I think it's different.

118
00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:39,599
Speaker 2: But I think that there's more of a game below

119
00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:42,320
Speaker 2: the rim with the women than the men who play

120
00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:45,719
Speaker 2: above the rim. And look, I enjoy both, there's no

121
00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:48,559
Speaker 2: doubt about that. But I think that this Yukon game

122
00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:51,360
Speaker 2: last night, it just the eighty six seventy two score,

123
00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:54,479
Speaker 2: it was just you knew Yukon was going to win,

124
00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:56,800
Speaker 2: You just didn't know when they were going to win

125
00:05:56,839 --> 00:05:58,520
Speaker 2: and when they were going to bust it open. And

126
00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:01,360
Speaker 2: their coach Dan Hurley, I was talking about the similarities

127
00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:03,800
Speaker 2: and the differences with last year's team and this year's team.

128
00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:06,680
Speaker 2: Let's take a look at coach Hurley and listen to him. No,

129
00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:08,680
Speaker 2: he's not there. Okay, I thought we got to call

130
00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:11,120
Speaker 2: it Dan Hurley there, but he's not. But look, you

131
00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:14,440
Speaker 2: talk about Alabama. I think it's great what they've done. Uh,

132
00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:16,480
Speaker 2: take a lot of three pointers and that's I guess

133
00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:19,520
Speaker 2: NATO's is uh uh a m O take a lot

134
00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:22,920
Speaker 2: of three point shots and avoid those mid range shots,

135
00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:24,560
Speaker 2: and that that's what they did. I was looking for.

136
00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:28,240
Speaker 2: I'm looking forward to seeing, uh, you know, Alabama play

137
00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:30,320
Speaker 2: and what they've done. But Dan Hurley tells me now

138
00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:32,159
Speaker 2: he's ready. He was in the men's room. All right, coach,

139
00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:32,559
Speaker 2: go ahead.

140
00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:36,480
Speaker 4: I'm sorry, it's your second straight national championship. I'm wondering

141
00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:39,680
Speaker 4: what similarities and differences you see between this year's team

142
00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:43,400
Speaker 4: and last year's team.

143
00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:49,320
Speaker 5: Just at that same you know, relentless, relentless, you know,

144
00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:55,120
Speaker 5: effort and just a meticulous approach to you know, to

145
00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:59,800
Speaker 5: to performance and winning and game planning with Luken kame

146
00:06:59,839 --> 00:07:03,480
Speaker 5: on to the best in the country what they do.

147
00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:06,120
Speaker 3: In every facet.

148
00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:10,200
Speaker 5: So I think, you know, like Jordan's different player than Cam,

149
00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:14,120
Speaker 5: and Steph's a different player than Andre Jackson, and the

150
00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:17,360
Speaker 5: bench is a little bit different. But you know, the culture,

151
00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:21,360
Speaker 5: the preparation, the commitment to every aspect of the game

152
00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:26,840
Speaker 5: so that we keep ourselves as bulletproof as possible in

153
00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:29,440
Speaker 5: this tournament, which is hard. We make a hard tournament

154
00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:30,240
Speaker 5: look easy.

155
00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:31,960
Speaker 6: It's crazy, you know.

156
00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:34,120
Speaker 2: I honestly, you just look at the box scoring, you

157
00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:35,960
Speaker 2: could tell they won. You know, they have a balance

158
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:37,920
Speaker 2: scoring that that they have five guys in double figures,

159
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:40,880
Speaker 2: and you look at that on a college roster, that's

160
00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:43,640
Speaker 2: almost a rarity. You don't usually see a college box

161
00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:46,760
Speaker 2: score with five guys in double figures. With Cam Spencer,

162
00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:50,360
Speaker 2: they're so called star only with fourteen points. Cleingland had

163
00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:53,760
Speaker 2: eighteen and Castle twenty one and Newton at twelve. So

164
00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:56,800
Speaker 2: I mean, these guys have balance scoring, they have depth,

165
00:07:57,040 --> 00:07:59,080
Speaker 2: and these guys could beat you in any mann of

166
00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:02,440
Speaker 2: shape or form. Actually did defensively. I thought they'd be

167
00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:04,640
Speaker 2: a little better than they wore. But this Alabama he

168
00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:07,720
Speaker 2: could shoot the basketball. But again, I think you know,

169
00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:09,960
Speaker 2: I knew and everybody else knew, and if you had

170
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:12,600
Speaker 2: a bracket, you knew that Connecticut would be in the

171
00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:15,120
Speaker 2: Final four and maybe even in the championship game. And

172
00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:16,520
Speaker 2: now they're in the championship game.

173
00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:19,160
Speaker 3: Well, I mean, Dan Hurley's done a really good job

174
00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:22,440
Speaker 3: with the team. He is kind of cracked the code

175
00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:26,640
Speaker 3: when it came to recruiting and digging into portal, taking

176
00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:28,880
Speaker 3: on older guys, having guys that really want to buy

177
00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:32,600
Speaker 3: into what the Yukon brand is. And he's found a

178
00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:35,040
Speaker 3: way to take the talent, to develop the talent, put

179
00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:38,000
Speaker 3: the right taxes around it, and get the culture right.

180
00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:41,120
Speaker 3: And this is a result of him really digging into it.

181
00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:45,320
Speaker 3: I appreciate the fact that he shouted out the coaches

182
00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:48,160
Speaker 3: that are his assistant coaches who've also done a really

183
00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:52,200
Speaker 3: good job. And you know, he's a little unique because

184
00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:57,640
Speaker 3: his arrogance and cockiness doesn't really impact us. Most guys

185
00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:00,480
Speaker 3: that carry themselves the way that Dan Hurley care themselves,

186
00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:02,600
Speaker 3: we would be all on. But it's worked for him

187
00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:05,199
Speaker 3: because the team is so loaded. But he certainly has

188
00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:08,400
Speaker 3: a swag about him that is a little outward and

189
00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:11,480
Speaker 3: in your face, but it matches the brand, it matches

190
00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:14,040
Speaker 3: the area, that New England area, and kind of how

191
00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:16,600
Speaker 3: they get down when the Patriots were rolling under Bill

192
00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:20,040
Speaker 3: Belichick and Tom Brady. And it works, and we'll see

193
00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:22,000
Speaker 3: if they can kind of pull it off, because right now,

194
00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:25,160
Speaker 3: the assumption is that they're just gonna roll out the

195
00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:27,600
Speaker 3: balls on Monday and roll through Purdue. But I saw

196
00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:30,400
Speaker 3: a team in Purdue that is gritty, that has some

197
00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:35,280
Speaker 3: big people that unafraid to deal with some of the

198
00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:37,719
Speaker 3: better teams in the tournament. And we'll get a chance

199
00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:40,040
Speaker 3: to see what I expect to be a really good

200
00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:41,560
Speaker 3: matchup on Monday. Yeah.

201
00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:43,320
Speaker 2: And it's funny because at the beginning of the ball again,

202
00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:45,440
Speaker 2: Dan Clinton, the been guy who had scored eighteen points

203
00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:47,480
Speaker 2: at four blocks. I think it was the first shot

204
00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:50,200
Speaker 2: of the game Alabama took. He blocked that shot. I said, oh,

205
00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:52,160
Speaker 2: here we go again. I think I'd be going to

206
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:55,120
Speaker 2: bed early last night because I thought Connecticut would roll

207
00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:57,040
Speaker 2: it over and they'd be up by double digits easily

208
00:09:57,080 --> 00:09:59,520
Speaker 2: by halftime. But it was close. It was tight, and

209
00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:01,800
Speaker 2: look the fans point of view, it was pretty exciting

210
00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:04,560
Speaker 2: for TV executives. They loved it because people didn't click

211
00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:07,200
Speaker 2: it off. But I think I knew and everybody else

212
00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:09,560
Speaker 2: knew that eventually Connecticut is going to pull away. And

213
00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:13,040
Speaker 2: look again, you live and die with the three, nte oats,

214
00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:15,240
Speaker 2: you live and die with the three, and you died

215
00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:17,200
Speaker 2: with the three. I get it. You made the Final

216
00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:20,040
Speaker 2: four with that offense, okay, but you died with the

217
00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:22,160
Speaker 2: three last night. Just just the way it goes. You know,

218
00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:24,800
Speaker 2: you rely on it, but sometimes it just falters, and

219
00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:27,120
Speaker 2: it faulted last night and you fell. And I think

220
00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:29,040
Speaker 2: Delus did a better team. I think Connecticut is a

221
00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:31,400
Speaker 2: better team than Alabama.

222
00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:34,840
Speaker 3: Look, I'll say Connecticut definitely is a better team. But

223
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:39,120
Speaker 3: the style that NATO's employs us one that is challenging

224
00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:42,199
Speaker 3: for opponents. They shoot the three, or they shoot layups.

225
00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:45,920
Speaker 3: He is taking the analytics community by storm because he

226
00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:49,880
Speaker 3: is big on the analytics. And they italy shoot shots

227
00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:52,680
Speaker 3: at the rim or they shoot threes. They tried to

228
00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:55,160
Speaker 3: avoid the mid range because the odds and the percentages

229
00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:58,680
Speaker 3: aren't in their favor and it's really worked out for him,

230
00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:01,080
Speaker 3: and it didn't work out last night. But if you

231
00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:04,120
Speaker 3: look at the teams they've beaten along the way. I

232
00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:06,280
Speaker 3: don't know how you can fought NATO's for a style

233
00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:08,920
Speaker 3: or fought the way that he has decided to build

234
00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:11,400
Speaker 3: the program utilizing an offense that puts a lot of

235
00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:14,600
Speaker 3: pressure on you because if if they're hitting, if they

236
00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:16,440
Speaker 3: get into a role and they knock down a handful

237
00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:18,600
Speaker 3: of threes in succession, it changed the way that you

238
00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:20,080
Speaker 3: have to defend them. It changed the way that you

239
00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:22,400
Speaker 3: have to play, not only on defense, but also on

240
00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:23,240
Speaker 3: the offensive end.

241
00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:25,720
Speaker 2: There you go, and I'm glad you brought up the three, Okay,

242
00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:27,000
Speaker 2: And I'll tell you why, because I want to talk

243
00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:29,680
Speaker 2: a little bit about this Purdue win over NC State

244
00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:31,240
Speaker 2: last night. I think a lot of people were rooting

245
00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:33,439
Speaker 2: for NC State. Why they were the so called Cinderella.

246
00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:36,160
Speaker 2: They had won five straight playoff games, you know, tournament games,

247
00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:38,240
Speaker 2: and they're coming down the stretch. No one expected them

248
00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:40,080
Speaker 2: to be there. Sixty three to fifty was the final,

249
00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:42,680
Speaker 2: But obviously Purdue won the game, not so much with

250
00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:45,240
Speaker 2: Zach Edy the big man in the middle, but the

251
00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:48,160
Speaker 2: boiler Makers at Purdue had ten three pointers. They started

252
00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:50,680
Speaker 2: like forty percent from the three line, and they held

253
00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:53,600
Speaker 2: NC State shooting to like twenty eight twenty nine percent,

254
00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:57,120
Speaker 2: and they did have Purdue had sixteen turnovers, which is

255
00:11:57,160 --> 00:11:59,280
Speaker 2: the most in the tournament. So you know, Purdue got

256
00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:01,800
Speaker 2: it done. And Zach Edi, look, you're not going to

257
00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:04,440
Speaker 2: stop him at twenty points and twelve boards, this guy

258
00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:07,680
Speaker 2: probably should have twenty and twelve or maybe even more

259
00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:09,679
Speaker 2: on a nightly basis. You got to stop the guy.

260
00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:12,720
Speaker 2: And I thought NC State did a decent job holding him,

261
00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:14,880
Speaker 2: because this guy could go for forty as he did

262
00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:17,520
Speaker 2: prior prior to the game before that, So I think

263
00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:19,560
Speaker 2: they did a decent job holding him, but they just

264
00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:22,800
Speaker 2: couldn't get the shots off and the defense and Purdue

265
00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:26,200
Speaker 2: was outstanding and they're outside shooting was tremendous with ten

266
00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:28,880
Speaker 2: three points, and so again Purdue won that game, and

267
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:31,480
Speaker 2: I wasn't surprised. I don't think anybody was really surprised

268
00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:33,439
Speaker 2: that Purdue went on in they advance.

269
00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:35,880
Speaker 3: Well, I mean, I think the big thing was they

270
00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:38,480
Speaker 3: cracked the code when it came to dealing with DJ

271
00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:41,800
Speaker 3: Burns on the inside. DJ Burns have been wearing people

272
00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:44,319
Speaker 3: out from NC State. NC State had been running their

273
00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:47,240
Speaker 3: offense through the big Man, the big man would go

274
00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:50,000
Speaker 3: iso on the blocks and then depending on how the

275
00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:53,480
Speaker 3: defense reacts, where they doubled down, where they single them up,

276
00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:56,439
Speaker 3: he would make the decision. And it had been very effective.

277
00:12:56,800 --> 00:12:59,640
Speaker 3: Purdues the first team that had the size and the

278
00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:02,920
Speaker 3: physical Caldy the musculum. They made it difficult for Burns

279
00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:05,559
Speaker 3: to hit shots. He was missing the bunnies that he'd

280
00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:08,080
Speaker 3: been making throughout the tournament. Some of that was because

281
00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:09,760
Speaker 3: of the length, Some of that was because they could

282
00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:12,600
Speaker 3: also put zach Edy in a position where he could

283
00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:15,560
Speaker 3: help out and make him shoot over high hands. That

284
00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:18,200
Speaker 3: was advantageous. They are one of the teams that could

285
00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:21,440
Speaker 3: do it. Many teams didn't have the size nor the

286
00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:24,040
Speaker 3: strength of physicality to be able to deal with them.

287
00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:26,599
Speaker 3: They did a really good job and they made n

288
00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:29,040
Speaker 3: C State play their style. It was a half court game.

289
00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:30,760
Speaker 3: It was a slow down game, and even though they

290
00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:33,720
Speaker 3: hit I think you said ten or eleven threes, the

291
00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:36,240
Speaker 3: game still was in the half court. They didn't allow

292
00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:38,559
Speaker 3: NC State to get runouts. They never allowed them to

293
00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:42,760
Speaker 3: get the momentum of a runout three or fast break points,

294
00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:46,160
Speaker 3: and it allowed them to control the game and to

295
00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:48,600
Speaker 3: dictate the terms. They would need to put off a

296
00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:50,920
Speaker 3: similar plan and a similar effort to be able to

297
00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:52,480
Speaker 3: knock off you econ on Monday.

298
00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:54,199
Speaker 2: No doubt about that. And I will tell you this much.

299
00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:56,880
Speaker 2: I think you'll agree. I think holding Zach Edy to

300
00:13:56,920 --> 00:13:59,480
Speaker 2: twenty and twelve last night is somewhat of a win

301
00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:02,480
Speaker 2: Fantacy State. But the wolf Pack of emphy State didn't

302
00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:04,240
Speaker 2: follow up. They couldn't score enough points. That was a

303
00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:06,120
Speaker 2: deal right there. And I tell you what, I credit

304
00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:07,960
Speaker 2: the NC State wolf Pack. And I know it's hurts

305
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:10,200
Speaker 2: you to say this, but it's true. They were just

306
00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:12,600
Speaker 2: a six to eleven seed team to reach the Final four,

307
00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:15,240
Speaker 2: which is something tremendous as a great season. It really

308
00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:17,320
Speaker 2: was a great season of Fancy State. Know what expected

309
00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:19,960
Speaker 2: them to be there. They expected your school to be there.

310
00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:23,400
Speaker 2: That was a disappointment. North Carolina wasn't there, but NC

311
00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:25,160
Speaker 2: State was there. They got hot at the right time.

312
00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:25,920
Speaker 2: That's why it is.

313
00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:30,280
Speaker 3: I mean they did. In college basketball. That is funny

314
00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:31,800
Speaker 3: because you had a lot of teams at the top.

315
00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:35,680
Speaker 3: If anyone that followed college basketball all year, you know,

316
00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:37,880
Speaker 3: Houston had been one of the top teams. Houston had

317
00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:40,920
Speaker 3: kind of dominated throughout the year, but not parody is

318
00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:45,320
Speaker 3: such in basketball that you can't rubber stamp anybody into

319
00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:47,960
Speaker 3: the final four, let alone the championship game didn't work

320
00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:49,640
Speaker 3: out for Vitario. It's just like it didn't work out

321
00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:51,240
Speaker 3: for Houston and some of the other teams they were

322
00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:53,840
Speaker 3: vying for it. But we will get a great matchup on.

323
00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:57,160
Speaker 2: Monday, right And I'll say this, Zach Eediot's seven to four.

324
00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:01,760
Speaker 2: He doesn't dominate like he should dominate. I mean, what

325
00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:04,080
Speaker 2: do you mean, Because if I had a seven and

326
00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:06,640
Speaker 2: four guy on my team, you know the guy will

327
00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:09,320
Speaker 2: be unstoppable. He's I think he comes to play when

328
00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:12,000
Speaker 2: he wants to play. Maybe he's not motivated enough. I

329
00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:15,840
Speaker 2: don't see the killer instinct when I watch him play.

330
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:16,160
Speaker 7: Now.

331
00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:18,840
Speaker 2: He's coming along now in the tournament, but during the

332
00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:20,920
Speaker 2: regular season, I have not seen what I saw him

333
00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:24,240
Speaker 2: play against Wisconsin. He was just you didn't even know

334
00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:26,240
Speaker 2: he was seven to four. A guy at seven four

335
00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:28,760
Speaker 2: should dominate, at least on the college level, maybe not

336
00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:31,360
Speaker 2: in the NBA. You got to dominate that game, and

337
00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:35,600
Speaker 2: he wasn't dominating to me. I'll take DJ from North

338
00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:38,280
Speaker 2: Carolina State, who to me has the attitude like he

339
00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:41,239
Speaker 2: plays like he's seven to four. I like his attitude

340
00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:44,520
Speaker 2: and as I say, to hold Eady to twenty and twelve,

341
00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:46,000
Speaker 2: that's a win for NC State.

342
00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:49,080
Speaker 3: It is a win for NC State. But somehow two

343
00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:51,000
Speaker 3: time National Player of the Year, and so I don't

344
00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:53,440
Speaker 3: know what you wanted him to do. I don't know

345
00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:55,880
Speaker 3: what kind of numbers. If you think he's real Chamberlin,

346
00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:58,160
Speaker 3: he should be putting up one hundred a night. But

347
00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:01,680
Speaker 3: what he does is he's an unselfish player. When they

348
00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:03,440
Speaker 3: double team here, he kicks the ball out and he

349
00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:06,760
Speaker 3: trusts his teammates. He doesn't go for self and those things.

350
00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:09,600
Speaker 3: And then, in direct comparison to DJ Burns, we saw

351
00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:12,840
Speaker 3: Burne's limitations when they finally had someone who can match

352
00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:16,520
Speaker 3: him size, strength and length. He had a tough time.

353
00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:19,240
Speaker 3: They made him work, and he couldn't get the shots

354
00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:21,760
Speaker 3: that he'd been killing people with throughout the tournament. Those

355
00:16:21,800 --> 00:16:25,000
Speaker 3: weren't falling on Saturday night. And I just think there's

356
00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:27,200
Speaker 3: a drastic difference between the two. You talking about one

357
00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:30,520
Speaker 3: who is a two time Player of the Year and

358
00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:33,240
Speaker 3: who will be a draft pick and who should have

359
00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:35,160
Speaker 3: a level of ses. Don't expect me be a dominant

360
00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:38,040
Speaker 3: player in the NBA. But look his size, his length,

361
00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:40,680
Speaker 3: his skills. Certainly you have to be impressed.

362
00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:42,560
Speaker 2: With all Right, I'm with you, hear you, I hear

363
00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:44,600
Speaker 2: noe doubt about that. Okay, let's talk about this. The

396
00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:25,480
Speaker 2: You know, the last thing I want to do in

397
00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:29,240
Speaker 2: life of this on this show with you, or basically

398
00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:31,760
Speaker 2: when I'm with my buds talking sports, I don't want

399
00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:32,560
Speaker 2: to talk politics.

400
00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:33,040
Speaker 3: You know.

401
00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:35,440
Speaker 2: It's one of those things that you could really lose

402
00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:38,879
Speaker 2: friends and lose lose relatives, and I don't want to

403
00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:41,560
Speaker 2: do that. So I'm gonna I'm gonna talk about a

404
00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:45,280
Speaker 2: person involved in politics, but I'm not talking politics, and look,

405
00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:49,200
Speaker 2: I respect the office that this person is in. I'm

406
00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:51,159
Speaker 2: not so much I respect the person after what she

407
00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:54,200
Speaker 2: had said. I'm talking about our vice president, Kamala Harris.

408
00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:56,480
Speaker 2: She said something the other day. Look, you gotta stay

409
00:18:56,480 --> 00:18:59,159
Speaker 2: in your lane. If you don't know what you're talking about.

410
00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:02,600
Speaker 2: And I'm talking about sports though, don't say it. Don't

411
00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:04,720
Speaker 2: say things you're not sure of. And she wasn't sure

412
00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:07,439
Speaker 2: about this what I'm talking about. You was talking about

413
00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:11,080
Speaker 2: the NCAA women's basketball brackets. Can we hear from our

414
00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:15,320
Speaker 2: vice president? Please go ahead, Kamala.

415
00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:16,719
Speaker 9: Do you know, okay, a bit of a history lesson.

416
00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:20,520
Speaker 9: Do you know that women were not the women's teams

417
00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:23,960
Speaker 9: were not allowed to have brackets until twenty twenty two?

418
00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:28,119
Speaker 1: Think about that and what that talk about? Progress?

419
00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:31,240
Speaker 9: You know, better late than ever, but progress and what

420
00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:33,199
Speaker 9: that has done because of course, when you know I

421
00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:35,720
Speaker 9: had a bracket, it's not broken completely.

422
00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:37,360
Speaker 3: But I won't talk about my bracket.

423
00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:41,640
Speaker 9: But you know what, just how we love we love

424
00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:44,959
Speaker 9: March madness and even just now allowing the women to

425
00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:48,080
Speaker 9: have brackets, and what that does to encourage people to

426
00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:51,480
Speaker 9: talk more about the women's teams, to watch them now

427
00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:55,280
Speaker 9: they're being covered, you know, And this is the reality.

428
00:19:55,359 --> 00:19:58,520
Speaker 9: People used to say, Oh, women's sports, who's interested. Well,

429
00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:01,639
Speaker 9: if you can't see it, you won't. But when you

430
00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:04,760
Speaker 9: see it, you realize, oh, what.

431
00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:07,720
Speaker 2: Are you talking about? Really? The women's basketball tournaments thought

432
00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:09,960
Speaker 2: it back in nineteen eighty two you were allowed to

433
00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:12,480
Speaker 2: have practices. No, we're not in the suffrage period. I

434
00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:14,840
Speaker 2: don't know where she's getting this information from. Look, she

435
00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:18,320
Speaker 2: has people handlers around her. Before you go public with

436
00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:21,320
Speaker 2: any remark, at least check it with somebody. But did

437
00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:23,360
Speaker 2: you hear that remark? She said that just the other

438
00:20:23,440 --> 00:20:26,199
Speaker 2: day about the women's tournament. It's true to women's tournament's

439
00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:29,719
Speaker 2: got visibility. It's great, it's been upgraded. People are interested

440
00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:32,399
Speaker 2: in it, but not allowed to have brackets. Where is

441
00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:33,240
Speaker 2: that coming from?

442
00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:37,480
Speaker 3: Really, I don't know where it's coming from, but I

443
00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:40,640
Speaker 3: think where she's alluded to the fact that the national

444
00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:43,719
Speaker 3: attention around the women's game has only happened of recent

445
00:20:45,080 --> 00:20:47,840
Speaker 3: It is the first time and a long time that

446
00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:52,480
Speaker 3: we have seen like bracketology popularized the women's game over

447
00:20:52,520 --> 00:20:55,399
Speaker 3: the last two years, but particularly this year with the

448
00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:56,680
Speaker 3: women and a lot of it has to do with

449
00:20:56,760 --> 00:21:01,120
Speaker 3: Kaitlin Clark and the stars that are playing in the tournament,

450
00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:03,680
Speaker 3: whether it's Yukon, where it's South Carolina. We talked about

451
00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:06,840
Speaker 3: Iowa and some of the others, and she's probably just

452
00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:09,879
Speaker 3: talking about the spotlight because for the first time ever,

453
00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:15,440
Speaker 3: we are showing the women's final four showing march madness

454
00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:17,600
Speaker 3: on the women's side, the same kind of love that

455
00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:19,960
Speaker 3: we're showing the men. That hasn't always been the case.

456
00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:22,439
Speaker 3: So I'm assuming that is what she's kind of pointing to.

457
00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:25,239
Speaker 2: Let's assume that I assume that with you. Okay, now,

458
00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:28,280
Speaker 2: they talk about the game, the Yukon Iowa game on Friday,

459
00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:31,560
Speaker 2: the last second cold with three point nine seconds, I

460
00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:33,760
Speaker 2: got a little statement to make and see if you agree.

461
00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:36,640
Speaker 2: I got to say that, and it was the offensive foul,

462
00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:39,480
Speaker 2: and I wasn't offensive foul here. A foul is a foul.

463
00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:41,159
Speaker 2: The first minute of the last minut of the game

464
00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:43,320
Speaker 2: is still a foul. And I disagree with the four

465
00:21:43,359 --> 00:21:45,959
Speaker 2: Letter network, these idiots behind the microphone and the four

466
00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:49,280
Speaker 2: letter network. We're complaining about the offensive foul that helped

467
00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:53,000
Speaker 2: decide the women's semi final in favor of Iowa against Yukon. Look,

468
00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:56,520
Speaker 2: and they're saying on TV that players should decide the game.

469
00:21:56,800 --> 00:21:59,960
Speaker 2: It sounds right, but it's misleading. It's not true. Players

470
00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:02,880
Speaker 2: off on the side games with crucial fouls. Well, as

471
00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:05,840
Speaker 2: you know in football, by committing penalties. That's how games

472
00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:08,200
Speaker 2: have decided. If the refs swallow their whistles in the

473
00:22:08,280 --> 00:22:10,800
Speaker 2: lake going, it means the rules don't matter. That's what

474
00:22:10,840 --> 00:22:13,480
Speaker 2: it's all about. And all of a sudden, now Gabby Marshall,

475
00:22:13,520 --> 00:22:16,520
Speaker 2: who was involved with that offensive foul call on Iowa

476
00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:19,320
Speaker 2: the defensive Little Guard. She said that she had to

477
00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:22,119
Speaker 2: delete her social media because of the hate comments she

478
00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:25,440
Speaker 2: received following that offensive foul call that she drew against

479
00:22:25,520 --> 00:22:28,720
Speaker 2: Yukon that they say health determined the outcome of the game,

480
00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:31,240
Speaker 2: which was bull but it's even worse that she had

481
00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:33,919
Speaker 2: hate comments. She had a great quote, she says, I

482
00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:36,320
Speaker 2: don't know. I'm not the one that made the call,

483
00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:38,439
Speaker 2: so I'm not sure why they made it me. I

484
00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:41,480
Speaker 2: love it. Gabby, what a comeback. She didn't make the call,

485
00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:43,480
Speaker 2: Why you made it her? This whole thing is out

486
00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:44,680
Speaker 2: of control, it really is.

487
00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:48,480
Speaker 3: Well, I don't know if it's out of control. And

488
00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:52,080
Speaker 3: speaking to the Yukon Iowa think. I think the frustration

489
00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:54,959
Speaker 3: that some would have is everyone just wants a love

490
00:22:55,040 --> 00:22:57,880
Speaker 3: of consistency from the referees, and so if you're going

491
00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:00,480
Speaker 3: to allow some of those screens to take place early,

492
00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:04,040
Speaker 3: but then you call them late, it leaves everyone confused.

493
00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:06,360
Speaker 3: But if you're tight on those calls and you called

494
00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:08,720
Speaker 3: them from the beginning of game to the end, no

495
00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:12,760
Speaker 3: one says anything. It is the inconsistency that I think

496
00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:16,720
Speaker 3: people have issue with. And as it relates to the

497
00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:21,560
Speaker 3: comment about like players deciding games, that call ultimately ended

498
00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:25,080
Speaker 3: Yukon's opportunity to win or lose, and so whether we

499
00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:28,119
Speaker 3: like to call or not, I think what you get

500
00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:31,520
Speaker 3: from the people is an outcry of I would rather

501
00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:34,639
Speaker 3: see pay bukers either make the shot or miss the

502
00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:38,240
Speaker 3: shot without a file being called or anything like that.

503
00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:41,320
Speaker 3: But to call a screen and an illegal screen at

504
00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:44,000
Speaker 3: that moment with three seconds left, that was the frustration.

505
00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:47,560
Speaker 3: I think everyone would rather see the Hollywood story painted,

506
00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:50,960
Speaker 3: whether either she made it or she missed it, not

507
00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:54,879
Speaker 3: that there was a whistle that interrupted player. Real look

508
00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:57,080
Speaker 3: a foul as a foul as a foul. I think

509
00:23:57,119 --> 00:24:00,720
Speaker 3: the consistency with which it's called that it is more

510
00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:03,600
Speaker 3: the issue than anything else. And as it relates to

511
00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:07,000
Speaker 3: like Gabby Marshall and you know, like the hate that

512
00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:10,520
Speaker 3: she received via social media, it's no different than the

513
00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:12,760
Speaker 3: hate that Angel Rees and some others have received on

514
00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:17,159
Speaker 3: social media. Like social media is accessful for people to

515
00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:20,560
Speaker 3: have strong opinions without having to confront the people face

516
00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:23,560
Speaker 3: to face, and it's unfortunate that everyone has to deal

517
00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:26,199
Speaker 3: with that, but that's just the new reality that we

518
00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:28,960
Speaker 3: live in. If you're a public figure, you're going to

519
00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:31,560
Speaker 3: have to deal with the scrutiny that comes along with it,

520
00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:34,360
Speaker 3: fair or not, that's part of it. I credit her

521
00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:36,280
Speaker 3: for being able to delete it and take it down

522
00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:39,480
Speaker 3: to preserve her own mental health. But everybody deals with

523
00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:42,440
Speaker 3: that stuff. Kaitlin Clark deals with it a Reese don Staley,

524
00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:45,240
Speaker 3: like everyone is dealing with all of that stuff, and

525
00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:46,720
Speaker 3: it's just kind of the way the world now.

526
00:24:47,359 --> 00:24:51,600
Speaker 2: Social media to me is beer muscles. Guys going through

527
00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:53,280
Speaker 2: bars and start drinking. All of a sudden, they get

528
00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:55,840
Speaker 2: real tough and they get cockied. It's beer muscles, That's

529
00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:58,000
Speaker 2: what it is. And you hide behind it. That's exactly

530
00:24:58,080 --> 00:25:00,480
Speaker 2: what it is. And credit Gabby Marshall's you say for

531
00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:03,200
Speaker 2: deleting it, but if you play the game, if you're

532
00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:05,480
Speaker 2: a public figure, you got to suck it up. That's

533
00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:07,479
Speaker 2: part of the deal. It's part of the gig. Really.

534
00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:10,240
Speaker 2: I'm sure that when you played, they didn't have heavy

535
00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:12,280
Speaker 2: duty I'm trying to not make you old here, but

536
00:25:12,400 --> 00:25:14,000
Speaker 2: there wasn't heavy duty social media.

537
00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:17,600
Speaker 3: So there's no social media. Social media. Social media was

538
00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:20,880
Speaker 3: long well after I was done. But I will say this,

539
00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:24,320
Speaker 3: it's not only social media that's impacting. It's the betting.

540
00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:29,880
Speaker 3: When you're intertwining gambling with sports, you have those who

541
00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:33,439
Speaker 3: have vested interest in who wins and who loses. The

542
00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:37,359
Speaker 3: performance and stuff matters. College kids are now subject to

543
00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:41,199
Speaker 3: more than just their fan bases pulling for them or

544
00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:45,080
Speaker 3: pulling or rooting against them and those things. It is

545
00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:47,760
Speaker 3: the gambling public that is also involved, and how you

546
00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:50,600
Speaker 3: perform and what you do has a direct impact on

547
00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:55,119
Speaker 3: the bottom line. You're getting more of that stuff come in,

548
00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:58,000
Speaker 3: just like you used to, like four or five years ago,

549
00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:02,600
Speaker 3: with fantasy football. So players more than ever, are being

550
00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:08,040
Speaker 3: targeted by people who aren't necessarily out for their will

551
00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:11,879
Speaker 3: being as like lo, we support IOWA or this is

552
00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:15,080
Speaker 3: our favorite team. It's more so about the other stuff

553
00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:19,440
Speaker 3: that goes along with the games, the friends stuff, and

554
00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:21,480
Speaker 3: I think gambling has a big part of that as well.

555
00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:23,760
Speaker 2: It's funny you mentioned that because Kaitlin Clark, who scored

556
00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:26,240
Speaker 2: twenty seven points in that Yukon game, she was getting

557
00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:27,920
Speaker 2: some heat because the over and under for her point

558
00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:30,280
Speaker 2: total that night was thirty, so she was getting heat.

559
00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:33,680
Speaker 2: It's unbelievable. Really, you can't win. And we talked about

560
00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:36,040
Speaker 2: this last week that the coach of the bigger staff,

561
00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:38,359
Speaker 2: the coach of the Cleveland Cavaliers, he was getting threats

562
00:26:38,520 --> 00:26:40,880
Speaker 2: because of what he's done with his team. Maybe over

563
00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:43,080
Speaker 2: and under or not winning by enough points. Who knows

564
00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:46,159
Speaker 2: what it is, but gambling could be like money, the

565
00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:48,639
Speaker 2: root of all evil could very well be. But you know,

566
00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:50,600
Speaker 2: leagues are not going to stop it because it's a

567
00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:53,239
Speaker 2: great revenue stream. That's what it's all about. It really is.

568
00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:56,159
Speaker 2: By the way, he is Bucky Brooks. I'm Andy Furman

569
00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:58,720
Speaker 2: and by the way, here coming up next on Fox

570
00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:02,000
Speaker 2: Life from the Tyrack dot com studios. Her threat was false.

571
00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:04,920
Speaker 2: But first, Kevin Wyatt with all your sports.

572
00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:09,520
Speaker 10: Yeah, NCUBA Basketball Action Saturday, the final four, as we

573
00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:13,240
Speaker 10: saw two teams get themselves into the national championship game,

574
00:27:13,280 --> 00:27:17,080
Speaker 10: the first, top seeded Yukon. They go for the second

575
00:27:17,119 --> 00:27:20,040
Speaker 10: straight year to play for a national championship after they

576
00:27:20,119 --> 00:27:22,920
Speaker 10: roll against Alabama eighty six to seventy two. Now they

577
00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:25,640
Speaker 10: were tied with twelve minutes left before the Huskies really

578
00:27:25,640 --> 00:27:28,040
Speaker 10: stepped on the gas pedal, and they won this game

579
00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:30,879
Speaker 10: by double digits. They have won every game in this

580
00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:36,560
Speaker 10: tournament by at least ten points. Purdue wins the semifinal

581
00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:39,440
Speaker 10: over NC State sixty three to fifty behind twenty points

582
00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:41,919
Speaker 10: and twelve rebounds from Zach Edy. The boiler Makers in

583
00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:45,080
Speaker 10: the final, just a year removed from being upset as

584
00:27:45,080 --> 00:27:48,880
Speaker 10: a number one seed by a sixteen seed in Farley Dickinson.

585
00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:53,960
Speaker 10: Today Sunday is the women's final South Carolina and Iowa's

586
00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:56,679
Speaker 10: the game, Cocks looking to cap an undefeated season and

587
00:27:57,040 --> 00:28:00,560
Speaker 10: Caitlin Clark looking to cement her legacy as well of

588
00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:04,560
Speaker 10: the greatest basketball players of all time. Iowa semifinal victory

589
00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:08,639
Speaker 10: against Yu Kaina the most watched women's basketball game ever.

590
00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:14,080
Speaker 10: Fourteen point two million viewers tune into that game on ESPN.

591
00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:19,520
Speaker 10: NBA regular season just a week away from concluding and

592
00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:22,000
Speaker 10: the Los Angeles Lakers trying to play the way into

593
00:28:22,040 --> 00:28:24,480
Speaker 10: the top half of the play in tournament, and they've

594
00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:26,600
Speaker 10: won nine of the last ten. After beating the Cleveland

595
00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:30,520
Speaker 10: Cavaliers won sixteen ninety seven, Nets found themselves in a

596
00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:33,440
Speaker 10: hole fifteen points against Detroit with just seven and a

597
00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:35,879
Speaker 10: half minutes to go, but they beat the Pistons won

598
00:28:35,920 --> 00:28:39,000
Speaker 10: thirteen to one oh three sixers over the Grizzlies won

599
00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:42,520
Speaker 10: sixteen ninety six, dol MB with thirty points as he's

600
00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:45,680
Speaker 10: really given Philadelphia a boost since he returned to the lineup,

601
00:28:45,920 --> 00:28:48,600
Speaker 10: and the Nuggets beat up Atlanta one forty two to one.

602
00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:48,960
Speaker 1: Ten.

603
00:28:49,120 --> 00:28:53,760
Speaker 10: The NHL regular season ends on April eighteenth, eleven days

604
00:28:53,760 --> 00:28:57,320
Speaker 10: from now. Boston Bruins winners in overtime against the Florida

605
00:28:57,360 --> 00:29:00,880
Speaker 10: Panthers three too, the Islanders over Nashville to nothing, and

606
00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:03,560
Speaker 10: the Jets beat the y all of four to two.

607
00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:06,160
Speaker 2: Back to you guys, thank you Kessey. About an hour now,

608
00:29:06,240 --> 00:29:09,120
Speaker 2: just call her Barbie Knight. We'll tell you why and

609
00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:11,080
Speaker 2: who in just about a minute now. We've got Iowa

610
00:29:11,480 --> 00:29:14,280
Speaker 2: playing today Connecticut to say, after doing three o'clock easton

611
00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:18,240
Speaker 2: for the national women's title and now Caitlin Clark is

612
00:29:18,240 --> 00:29:21,200
Speaker 2: in center stage, and yesterday at the practice in Cleveland,

613
00:29:21,200 --> 00:29:26,240
Speaker 2: she said it's a fair assessment by some people that

614
00:29:26,320 --> 00:29:29,720
Speaker 2: if she doesn't win the national title to secure a legacy,

615
00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:31,880
Speaker 2: she won't be the goat. And she said she doesn't

616
00:29:31,880 --> 00:29:33,719
Speaker 2: think it's fair, and I don't think it's fair that

617
00:29:33,760 --> 00:29:36,880
Speaker 2: only one game that would late lean on the national

618
00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:39,680
Speaker 2: title will say she's the goat or she's not the goat.

619
00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:41,840
Speaker 2: And look, I don't even know if she is to

620
00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:44,400
Speaker 2: go she's the scoring champ, but there have been players

621
00:29:44,480 --> 00:29:47,200
Speaker 2: I believe that were better women players in the game

622
00:29:47,240 --> 00:29:50,280
Speaker 2: of college basketball than her. But she has put that

623
00:29:50,320 --> 00:29:52,960
Speaker 2: team on her back going to the finals for two

624
00:29:53,040 --> 00:29:56,600
Speaker 2: years in a row, and should she win the championship today,

625
00:29:57,120 --> 00:29:59,200
Speaker 2: she may very well be considered the goat. To me,

626
00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:02,480
Speaker 2: I couldn't care less. I don't care if she's the

627
00:30:02,520 --> 00:30:04,760
Speaker 2: goal or not the goal. But this is the question

628
00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:08,080
Speaker 2: being asked, and I got to ask you, is it fair.

629
00:30:08,400 --> 00:30:09,400
Speaker 2: I don't think it's fair.

630
00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:13,000
Speaker 3: No, no, no, no, no, it's fair. I mean, we

631
00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:14,960
Speaker 3: do this. We do this with Lebron James, we did

632
00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:17,280
Speaker 3: it with Kobe, we did it with Michael Jordan, like,

633
00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:19,360
Speaker 3: this is what we do. When you're one of the

634
00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:22,160
Speaker 3: elite players. We hold you to a standard where you

635
00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:24,720
Speaker 3: not only have to be great at what you do individually,

636
00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:27,360
Speaker 3: but you have to lift your team to unprecedented heights.

637
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:30,880
Speaker 3: The conversation that we had about Lebron, you know, Lebron

638
00:30:30,920 --> 00:30:34,120
Speaker 3: took bad Cavaliers teams to the finals, but the expectation

639
00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:37,920
Speaker 3: was he had to win. If we didn't, we talked about, oh,

640
00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:40,320
Speaker 3: he didn't have the clutch Jeene, or he didn't have this,

641
00:30:40,520 --> 00:30:42,920
Speaker 3: or he didn't have that. That's part of the territory.

642
00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:45,360
Speaker 3: When you're Kaitlyn Clark, you're Caitlyn Clark. If you want

643
00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:46,880
Speaker 3: to be one of the greatest, you want to be.

644
00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:50,320
Speaker 3: In that conversation, you have to win titles. Because that's

645
00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:53,320
Speaker 3: how we decided. The reason Tom Brady is considered the

646
00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:55,680
Speaker 3: greatest of all time at the position because he has

647
00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:59,000
Speaker 3: seven rings Joe Montana has four. You know, winning is

648
00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:01,280
Speaker 3: a big part of it and Moreno cannot enter the

649
00:31:01,280 --> 00:31:04,960
Speaker 3: discussion because he didn't win enough. And we could talk about, oh,

650
00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:07,000
Speaker 3: it's the individual game in the team game, but we

651
00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:09,760
Speaker 3: know the only thing that we really care about did

652
00:31:09,800 --> 00:31:11,960
Speaker 3: you win or did you lose? Did you win the ring?

653
00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:14,320
Speaker 3: And so for Kaitlin Clark, she has to understand that

654
00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:16,520
Speaker 3: she has to know that to who much he's given,

655
00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:18,640
Speaker 3: much is required. So she has to respond if she

656
00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:21,360
Speaker 3: wants to be in that conversation, she has to win it.

657
00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:23,400
Speaker 3: So it must win for her against South Carolina.

658
00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:25,080
Speaker 2: You know what, you make a great point. You make

659
00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:27,200
Speaker 2: a great argument that you probably should have been an attorney.

660
00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:28,640
Speaker 2: And I'll tell you why I say that, because I'm

661
00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:30,680
Speaker 2: going back in time right now, history of the NBA.

662
00:31:31,240 --> 00:31:32,920
Speaker 2: And you look at Bill Russell, who's one of eleven

663
00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:34,960
Speaker 2: titles with the Boston Celtics. But I always thought that

664
00:31:34,960 --> 00:31:38,560
Speaker 2: Will Chamberlain was a dominating player, more dominating than Bill Russell,

665
00:31:38,680 --> 00:31:40,880
Speaker 2: but he just never won. He never won. That was

666
00:31:40,880 --> 00:31:42,520
Speaker 2: the probably one to do it with the seventies six

667
00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:44,960
Speaker 2: ers back I think in sixty seven. But other than that,

668
00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:49,480
Speaker 2: the stats were astronomical. One year he averaged fifty points

669
00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:51,120
Speaker 2: of games. Look it up. Tell people to look it up.

670
00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:53,200
Speaker 2: They probably even know who I'm talking about, Will Chamberlain.

671
00:31:53,280 --> 00:31:55,760
Speaker 2: But I always thought that Will Chamblain never got the respect.

672
00:31:55,800 --> 00:31:57,760
Speaker 2: And when it's one of the greatest players ever, and

673
00:31:57,800 --> 00:32:00,239
Speaker 2: they talk about Mount Rushmore, they never put his name,

674
00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:02,360
Speaker 2: I'm Mount Rushmore. Why, I don't know. Maybe because she

675
00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:04,520
Speaker 2: had won championships. So you make a great point. And

676
00:32:04,600 --> 00:32:07,560
Speaker 2: Don Staley, the coach of South Carolina, she said she

677
00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:09,480
Speaker 2: was a great play when she played at Virginia, but

678
00:32:09,560 --> 00:32:11,880
Speaker 2: she never won a championship and that's why she said

679
00:32:11,920 --> 00:32:15,200
Speaker 2: that she would never be considered a goat. So maybe

680
00:32:15,280 --> 00:32:17,280
Speaker 2: you're onto something yet. But I don't think it's fair.

681
00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:18,480
Speaker 2: I just don't think it's fair.

682
00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:22,200
Speaker 3: But life isn't fair. This is what we do, Andy,

683
00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:24,440
Speaker 3: this is what we signed up for when we step

684
00:32:24,520 --> 00:32:27,760
Speaker 3: behind the mike, to make comparisons, to compare and contrast.

685
00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:30,760
Speaker 3: And rings are part of the debate culture. And so

686
00:32:30,840 --> 00:32:33,280
Speaker 3: if we're going to debate who's the best, who's the

687
00:32:33,320 --> 00:32:36,000
Speaker 3: greatest to ever do it? Yeah, she can't enter that

688
00:32:36,040 --> 00:32:39,760
Speaker 3: discussion until she wins the ring. And even if she

689
00:32:39,920 --> 00:32:43,680
Speaker 3: wins one, she only has one. Breonna Stewart won four

690
00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:47,680
Speaker 3: was a part of dominant teams that you kind you think.

691
00:32:47,520 --> 00:32:51,680
Speaker 2: Briand is a better player than Caitlin though, do you different?

692
00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:54,040
Speaker 3: But she's a dominant player, one of the best that

693
00:32:54,040 --> 00:32:56,560
Speaker 3: we've seen. She's a dominant player that we've seen. And

694
00:32:56,640 --> 00:32:58,680
Speaker 3: the thing I think what happens is we have a

695
00:32:58,720 --> 00:33:01,520
Speaker 3: bit of a recency bias, and I also believe that

696
00:33:02,400 --> 00:33:06,520
Speaker 3: we have fallen in love with the mythology of Caitlyn Clark.

697
00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:08,480
Speaker 3: She is one of the best players that I've seen.

698
00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:10,760
Speaker 3: And this is going back last year because I'm a

699
00:33:10,840 --> 00:33:14,360
Speaker 3: huge women's basketball follower. A lot of my friends are

700
00:33:14,600 --> 00:33:18,200
Speaker 3: coaches at some level some capacity in a women's basketball

701
00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:20,320
Speaker 3: game at the collegiate level, so I've always followed it.

702
00:33:20,640 --> 00:33:23,360
Speaker 3: She is something that I haven't seen, very similar to

703
00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:28,480
Speaker 3: Steph Curry shooting threes from deep. But the game goes

704
00:33:28,520 --> 00:33:30,440
Speaker 3: back more than just two years. I mean, there have

705
00:33:30,480 --> 00:33:32,040
Speaker 3: been a lot of women that have come through that

706
00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:35,160
Speaker 3: have been dominant player. Cheryl Miller was a dominant player.

707
00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:37,800
Speaker 3: Cheryl Swoops was a dominant player. She meet a holz

708
00:33:37,840 --> 00:33:41,480
Speaker 3: Claw from Tennessee kandas Parker. So when we talk about

709
00:33:41,760 --> 00:33:45,120
Speaker 3: Caitlyn Clark is the greatest, like, we are putting her

710
00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:49,160
Speaker 3: over a lot of ladies who have dominated the game

711
00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:51,400
Speaker 3: at a high level, and so if she's going to

712
00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:54,360
Speaker 3: separate herself from some of those, she has to have

713
00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:59,000
Speaker 3: rings And normally what we do is those with more

714
00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:02,560
Speaker 3: rings have a bigger say in a bigger impact when

715
00:34:02,560 --> 00:34:05,880
Speaker 3: it comes to the greatest. But if she wins today,

716
00:34:05,960 --> 00:34:08,880
Speaker 3: she wins against you got she certainly can enter the

717
00:34:08,920 --> 00:34:12,000
Speaker 3: discussion as to go, but she can't entit there if

718
00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:12,879
Speaker 3: she's ringless.

719
00:34:13,160 --> 00:34:15,560
Speaker 2: You know what, Bucky, you sold me on that, because

720
00:34:15,600 --> 00:34:17,920
Speaker 2: you know why no one remembers who finishes second in

721
00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:20,800
Speaker 2: the Kentucky Derby. You're right, they lose today, It's like goodbye,

722
00:34:20,880 --> 00:34:22,799
Speaker 2: that's the end of it. So you're right. You know,

723
00:34:22,960 --> 00:34:24,959
Speaker 2: I did mention that one quick thing over here about

724
00:34:25,120 --> 00:34:29,279
Speaker 2: coming into this segment, Barbie Knight. I mentioned Barbi Barbie Knight.

725
00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:31,839
Speaker 2: We're talking about Kim Maulty, the coach of LSU who

726
00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:34,319
Speaker 2: wears those clown outfits on the bench. Really and she

727
00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:36,239
Speaker 2: was all crazy and she says she was gonna sue

728
00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:39,520
Speaker 2: the Washington Post but putting on her in a bad light. Hey, Kim,

729
00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:42,080
Speaker 2: you know what putting you in a bad light? Who

730
00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:44,279
Speaker 2: the hell do you think the Washington Post is running about?

731
00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:46,600
Speaker 2: They're writing about you and the one thing I don't

732
00:34:46,680 --> 00:34:48,959
Speaker 2: like about her, Yeah, she may be a very good coach,

733
00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:50,799
Speaker 2: but a lot of players are leaving right now, the

734
00:34:50,800 --> 00:34:53,560
Speaker 2: way she said. They say that she abuses them verbally.

735
00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:55,439
Speaker 2: I don't know. I never played for her, I never

736
00:34:55,480 --> 00:34:57,960
Speaker 2: met her, But I do know one thing. I followed

737
00:34:58,120 --> 00:35:01,239
Speaker 2: her results, all right, and some of the scores in

738
00:35:01,280 --> 00:35:03,279
Speaker 2: some of the seasons, and I got them written down

739
00:35:03,320 --> 00:35:05,959
Speaker 2: over here. She beat New Hampshire ninety seven to twenty nine.

740
00:35:06,239 --> 00:35:09,680
Speaker 2: She'd beat Grambling one twenty forty six, Houston Baptist. I

741
00:35:09,719 --> 00:35:12,359
Speaker 2: don't even know why she's playing them one twelve forty two,

742
00:35:12,760 --> 00:35:16,879
Speaker 2: Lamar ninety twenty eight, Arkansas State one eleven forty three.

743
00:35:17,040 --> 00:35:20,319
Speaker 2: So anybody who does that is just, you know, you

744
00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:24,200
Speaker 2: don't belong in coaching. That just just poor sportsmanship. And

745
00:35:24,239 --> 00:35:27,440
Speaker 2: I know, maybe maybe it's I don't get it. I

746
00:35:27,560 --> 00:35:30,800
Speaker 2: just you've coached, well. You just can't run up scores

747
00:35:30,840 --> 00:35:33,919
Speaker 2: like that and do that by humiliating your opponents. Can't

748
00:35:33,920 --> 00:35:36,280
Speaker 2: do it. And that's why I'm not a fan of hers.

749
00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:39,839
Speaker 2: And the Washington Post thing was ridiculous, it was crazy, So.

750
00:35:40,120 --> 00:35:42,480
Speaker 3: I leave it that. I mean, look, she's she's definitely

751
00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:46,520
Speaker 3: an acquired case when it comes to supporting her and

752
00:35:46,560 --> 00:35:48,920
Speaker 3: that other stuff. And I can't say that I'm in

753
00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:50,680
Speaker 3: love with all the things that she's done, But I

754
00:35:50,719 --> 00:35:54,319
Speaker 3: can't recognize and appreciate how well she has done her

755
00:35:54,400 --> 00:35:56,719
Speaker 3: job in terms of coaching and elevating the program she's

756
00:35:56,719 --> 00:35:59,680
Speaker 3: been associated with. Did a Mark look an outstanding job

757
00:35:59,719 --> 00:36:03,440
Speaker 3: at She's done a terrific job at LSU quickly to

758
00:36:03,600 --> 00:36:07,600
Speaker 3: kind of re establish LSU as a perennial power. But

759
00:36:08,400 --> 00:36:11,360
Speaker 3: I mean, in those games, I think what's hard and

760
00:36:11,520 --> 00:36:14,400
Speaker 3: you talk about the scores? What is she supposed to

761
00:36:14,440 --> 00:36:17,759
Speaker 3: tell the backups? Okay, so you have if you have

762
00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:23,160
Speaker 3: twelve thirteen players on the team and players nine, ten, eleven,

763
00:36:23,200 --> 00:36:26,000
Speaker 3: and twelve don't play off and they finally get their opportunity,

764
00:36:26,360 --> 00:36:28,520
Speaker 3: are you to tell them to just dribble out the

765
00:36:28,520 --> 00:36:32,040
Speaker 3: shot clock every time? Don't run it up? At some point,

766
00:36:32,200 --> 00:36:33,879
Speaker 3: I mean, the game is the game, and as long

767
00:36:33,920 --> 00:36:36,799
Speaker 3: as it's not what I would call egregious, you're not

768
00:36:37,040 --> 00:36:40,880
Speaker 3: calling time out, you're not doing things that kind of

769
00:36:40,960 --> 00:36:41,800
Speaker 3: are extra.

770
00:36:42,360 --> 00:36:42,440
Speaker 11: No.

771
00:36:42,640 --> 00:36:45,480
Speaker 3: I believe her players should play hard, they should be

772
00:36:45,560 --> 00:36:47,719
Speaker 3: encouraged to go after because that's what she's telling the

773
00:36:47,719 --> 00:36:49,640
Speaker 3: rest of the team each and every day in practice.

774
00:36:49,920 --> 00:36:51,719
Speaker 2: There you go, she's a bully. I don't care, but

775
00:36:51,760 --> 00:36:54,000
Speaker 2: she's a bully. He's Bucky Brookley's not a bully. I'm

776
00:36:54,040 --> 00:36:57,080
Speaker 2: Andy Furman. Hey, he's know it all, not to know

777
00:36:57,160 --> 00:36:59,280
Speaker 2: it all. He's the know all as Bucky.

778
00:37:01,680 --> 00:37:04,400
Speaker 1: You're listening to Fox Sports Radio.

779
00:37:05,719 --> 00:37:08,240
Speaker 2: It's Bucky coming right around the bend. That's Bucky Brooks.

780
00:37:08,239 --> 00:37:10,399
Speaker 2: I'm Andy Furman. This is Fox Sports Sunday and Fox

781
00:37:10,400 --> 00:37:12,359
Speaker 2: Sports Radio. And of course we're alive from the Ti

782
00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:14,359
Speaker 2: rock dot Com studio. What are we waiting for? Let's

783
00:37:14,400 --> 00:37:17,000
Speaker 2: do it ask Bucky right now here we go. All right,

784
00:37:17,040 --> 00:37:21,279
Speaker 2: first question, Basketball and football are great wagering sports. We

785
00:37:21,360 --> 00:37:25,439
Speaker 2: know that. Could that be Bucky Brooks? Why their TV

786
00:37:25,560 --> 00:37:28,040
Speaker 2: ratings are better than baseball, hockey, and soccer because they're

787
00:37:28,080 --> 00:37:29,160
Speaker 2: great wagering sports.

788
00:37:30,360 --> 00:37:32,279
Speaker 3: I mean, that's that's a part of it. I think

789
00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:35,960
Speaker 3: watchability is everything following the game. There's more action in

790
00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:39,040
Speaker 3: basketball than in those sports that you mentioned. I think

791
00:37:39,040 --> 00:37:40,880
Speaker 3: it's easy for the casual fan to pick up and

792
00:37:40,880 --> 00:37:42,560
Speaker 3: get excited about what they see on the screen.

793
00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:45,560
Speaker 2: There you go. Okay, your thoughts on the transfer portal

794
00:37:45,600 --> 00:37:48,080
Speaker 2: which is in high gear right now? Would you change it?

795
00:37:48,120 --> 00:37:49,040
Speaker 2: Would you stop it?

796
00:37:50,640 --> 00:37:53,000
Speaker 3: I would definitely change it. I would change because I

797
00:37:53,080 --> 00:37:56,799
Speaker 3: worry about so many people changing schools and leaving at

798
00:37:56,840 --> 00:37:58,480
Speaker 3: the end of four or five years without a degree,

799
00:37:58,520 --> 00:38:02,120
Speaker 3: without anything close to an academic record that will help them.

800
00:38:02,560 --> 00:38:05,040
Speaker 3: The overwhelming majority of people that are playing college sports

801
00:38:05,080 --> 00:38:07,680
Speaker 3: won't play pros, so I'm more so worried about what

802
00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:11,799
Speaker 3: they're doing to damage their future earning power in terms

803
00:38:11,800 --> 00:38:14,600
Speaker 3: of being civilian. It's not just pro athletes, but I

804
00:38:14,640 --> 00:38:16,239
Speaker 3: do think that there needs to be a little more

805
00:38:16,239 --> 00:38:19,000
Speaker 3: regulation when it comes to transfer portal. I just think

806
00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:21,799
Speaker 3: it's crazy, and even though coaches have those leeways, I

807
00:38:21,840 --> 00:38:23,840
Speaker 3: just think it's hard to build a team and a

808
00:38:23,960 --> 00:38:27,319
Speaker 3: watchable product for TV when everyone is leaving, coming and

809
00:38:27,360 --> 00:38:28,000
Speaker 3: going every year.

810
00:38:28,520 --> 00:38:31,040
Speaker 2: Well said, all right, why are the women's at CAA

811
00:38:31,120 --> 00:38:33,880
Speaker 2: tournament games getting better TV ratings and ticket prices are

812
00:38:33,920 --> 00:38:34,680
Speaker 2: higher than the men?

813
00:38:36,320 --> 00:38:40,600
Speaker 3: I mean one watchability to stop prior is everything. People

814
00:38:40,640 --> 00:38:43,080
Speaker 3: want to see Kayln Clark, they want to see Don

815
00:38:43,120 --> 00:38:46,319
Speaker 3: Staley's crew, they want to see Paigeucus and some of

816
00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:50,719
Speaker 3: those others, And you know, when it comes to those

817
00:38:50,760 --> 00:38:53,760
Speaker 3: other sports, like it's just not it's the watchability factor.

818
00:38:53,960 --> 00:38:55,719
Speaker 3: It's just so easy to fall in love with and

819
00:38:55,719 --> 00:38:57,799
Speaker 3: you like the stories and you can feel like you've

820
00:38:57,840 --> 00:39:00,680
Speaker 3: grown up with these ladies that are playing because they've

821
00:39:00,680 --> 00:39:02,280
Speaker 3: been around three, four or five years.

822
00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:04,839
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's amazing, just as in a side. I mean,

823
00:39:04,960 --> 00:39:06,719
Speaker 2: I'm watching the games last night when one of the

824
00:39:06,719 --> 00:39:09,160
Speaker 2: games I think is on TBS and the women's game

825
00:39:09,200 --> 00:39:12,200
Speaker 2: is on ABC today, which is an amazing situation. Really

826
00:39:12,280 --> 00:39:14,440
Speaker 2: is but one Saturday night one Sunday afternoon. But I

827
00:39:14,440 --> 00:39:16,040
Speaker 2: don't think I'm making a munch of a difference. Now,

828
00:39:16,200 --> 00:39:18,120
Speaker 2: if you could pick just one sporting event to a

829
00:39:18,200 --> 00:39:21,200
Speaker 2: tend in person, what would that sporting event be.

830
00:39:23,160 --> 00:39:26,640
Speaker 3: Once for an event to a tend in person, I

831
00:39:26,640 --> 00:39:31,640
Speaker 3: would say that there's nothing like a championship fight. I

832
00:39:31,640 --> 00:39:35,520
Speaker 3: would need to see a championship fight in Vegas between

833
00:39:36,600 --> 00:39:38,200
Speaker 3: two of the best that we've don and I don't

834
00:39:38,239 --> 00:39:40,319
Speaker 3: care who's fighting, but I just need to see a

835
00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:42,719
Speaker 3: title fight in Vegas with a lot of atmosphere.

836
00:39:43,160 --> 00:39:45,400
Speaker 2: I'm really surprised to hear that, But that's okay. Now

837
00:39:45,800 --> 00:39:49,920
Speaker 2: here's the biggie. How much is your limit on paying

838
00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:52,040
Speaker 2: for a sports ticket for an event?

839
00:39:52,800 --> 00:39:58,520
Speaker 3: Man? My limit, I pay a couple hundred. I pay

840
00:39:58,520 --> 00:40:01,319
Speaker 3: a couple hundred dollars, maybe three hundred dollars for a

841
00:40:01,400 --> 00:40:03,880
Speaker 3: sporting event. I don't mind paying for paying for tickets

842
00:40:03,880 --> 00:40:05,560
Speaker 3: to go see something that whatever they want to see.

843
00:40:05,840 --> 00:40:07,480
Speaker 2: How much have you ever paid before? If I may

844
00:40:07,520 --> 00:40:09,120
Speaker 2: ask to be too personal.

845
00:40:09,360 --> 00:40:11,960
Speaker 3: Pay I paid. I paid. I paid significant money. I

846
00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:14,800
Speaker 3: paid like like two fifty three dollars a piece for

847
00:40:14,840 --> 00:40:16,120
Speaker 3: a ticket. But it would have to be a really

848
00:40:16,160 --> 00:40:17,600
Speaker 3: good game, something that I'm really about.

849
00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:20,080
Speaker 2: Okay, So if you paid two to fifty, I mean

850
00:40:20,080 --> 00:40:22,840
Speaker 2: you're not going along. So you're paying five hundred, right.

851
00:40:23,040 --> 00:40:25,919
Speaker 3: Yeah, pay five hundred. Take the old family, whatever it takes.

852
00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:28,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, there we go, all right, from the majors to

853
00:40:28,440 --> 00:40:31,560
Speaker 2: the monitors. That and much more right here. Fox Sports

00:40:37,800 --> 00:40:41,319

Speaker 2: ti rack dot com. We'll help you get there and

861

Speaker 2: protection and over a ten thousand recommended in stallless ti

863
00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:03,440
Speaker 2: rack dot Com. The way tire buying should be Bucky Brooks.

864
00:41:03,440 --> 00:41:06,080
Speaker 2: That's the way it is. But we're rolling along right now.

865
00:41:06,080 --> 00:41:08,240
Speaker 2: And you know what, I'm really happy that the NCAA

866
00:41:08,320 --> 00:41:11,120
Speaker 2: basketball tournament is coming to a close. Why you ask,

867
00:41:11,440 --> 00:41:14,200
Speaker 2: because we're getting even close to the football. That's why

868
00:41:14,239 --> 00:41:16,960
Speaker 2: we're getting close to the football. And the more I

869
00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:21,240
Speaker 2: watch college basketball or any other sport, I can understand

870
00:41:21,239 --> 00:41:25,279
Speaker 2: now why football is so much more popular. Less is more,

871
00:41:25,560 --> 00:41:28,920
Speaker 2: you know, Stop force feeding me all these games. You know,

872
00:41:29,080 --> 00:41:31,520
Speaker 2: I remember when college basketball used to start in December.

873
00:41:31,680 --> 00:41:35,480
Speaker 2: It's starting in November right now. Stop force forcing forcing

874
00:41:35,560 --> 00:41:39,000
Speaker 2: me all these games. More is not better. Less is best.

875
00:41:39,080 --> 00:41:41,640
Speaker 2: And when the NFL goes to eighteen, I kind of

876
00:41:41,680 --> 00:41:43,760
Speaker 2: worry about that there's going to be a limit about

877
00:41:43,760 --> 00:41:46,120
Speaker 2: the amount of games because more games, more injuries. But

878
00:41:46,440 --> 00:41:49,120
Speaker 2: right now, it's perfect. Once a week, you know, it's

879
00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:52,040
Speaker 2: just the perfect setup. It really is. And you know it.

880
00:41:52,120 --> 00:41:52,719
Speaker 2: You played it.

881
00:41:54,040 --> 00:41:55,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, it is a perfect setup.

882
00:41:55,440 --> 00:41:55,640
Speaker 12: You know.

883
00:41:58,400 --> 00:42:03,080
Speaker 3: Look, it's time. It's amazing how we are in love

884
00:42:03,160 --> 00:42:06,720
Speaker 3: with all sports. But football kind of always takes precedent.

885
00:42:06,840 --> 00:42:10,319
Speaker 3: So I am getting excited about the stuff. To draft

886
00:42:10,440 --> 00:42:14,040
Speaker 3: is like a month away, so yeah, it's time right now.

887
00:42:14,120 --> 00:42:18,200
Speaker 2: Yesterday, Louisiana became the first state to ban prop bets

888
00:42:18,280 --> 00:42:21,680
Speaker 2: on college athletes. All right. The Louisiana Gaming Control Board

889
00:42:21,680 --> 00:42:24,239
Speaker 2: announced this and the step that could lead maybe to

890
00:42:24,400 --> 00:42:28,160
Speaker 2: changes across the country. It's a moment for the relationship

891
00:42:28,200 --> 00:42:31,280
Speaker 2: between sports and gambling athletes at the college and pro levels.

892
00:42:31,520 --> 00:42:35,439
Speaker 2: And look, I don't understand why prop bets. Why does

893
00:42:35,480 --> 00:42:37,520
Speaker 2: that have the Why is that any different than any

894
00:42:37,560 --> 00:42:40,600
Speaker 2: other wage. I'm not a betting guy. I don't bet, Okay,

895
00:42:40,640 --> 00:42:43,400
Speaker 2: I really don't. I'll do a bracket, that's basically it.

896
00:42:43,480 --> 00:42:45,080
Speaker 2: Maybe once in a while, a little fun bet with

897
00:42:45,200 --> 00:42:47,800
Speaker 2: a friend or something like that. But I'm not a gambler.

898
00:42:47,880 --> 00:42:50,120
Speaker 2: And I know friends of mine they say they can't

899
00:42:50,120 --> 00:42:52,160
Speaker 2: watch sporting events unless I have money on the game,

900
00:42:52,200 --> 00:42:54,359
Speaker 2: because it makes it more interesting for them to watch.

901
00:42:54,440 --> 00:42:56,840
Speaker 2: Maybe so, but not for me. But why prop bets?

902
00:42:56,960 --> 00:42:59,400
Speaker 2: Are you familiar with this at all? I don't understand

903
00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:00,720
Speaker 2: why they pick up prop bets.

904
00:43:02,000 --> 00:43:05,920
Speaker 3: I think maybe because some of the students, you know,

905
00:43:05,960 --> 00:43:08,720
Speaker 3: we talked in the first hour about you know, Gabby

906
00:43:08,760 --> 00:43:12,920
Speaker 3: Marshall and how the increased outrage on social media platforms

907
00:43:12,920 --> 00:43:16,319
Speaker 3: and those things are an issue and so maybe they're

908
00:43:16,320 --> 00:43:18,840
Speaker 3: trying to take some of the pressure off of the

909
00:43:18,880 --> 00:43:21,200
Speaker 3: young people that are playing into sports by taking that

910
00:43:21,280 --> 00:43:22,400
Speaker 3: stuff away.

911
00:43:22,680 --> 00:43:25,319
Speaker 2: Interesting, I could be. I don't know. We'll see if

912
00:43:25,360 --> 00:43:28,240
Speaker 2: other states follow that now. I've just felt that betting

913
00:43:28,280 --> 00:43:32,160
Speaker 2: to me is great for sports leagues because obviously it's

914
00:43:32,160 --> 00:43:34,640
Speaker 2: a revenue stream. But I think it's hurting sports. We've

915
00:43:34,640 --> 00:43:38,240
Speaker 2: heard threats from NBA coaches. Gabby Marshall, you just mentioned

916
00:43:38,239 --> 00:43:41,120
Speaker 2: she's been harassed, I guess on social media. I just

917
00:43:41,120 --> 00:43:44,520
Speaker 2: don't think it's healthy. I really don't. But speaking of

918
00:43:44,600 --> 00:43:48,839
Speaker 2: college and college athletes, college freshman Bronnie James, yes, he's

919
00:43:48,920 --> 00:43:52,439
Speaker 2: the son of Lebron LBJ. He will enter the twenty

920
00:43:52,480 --> 00:43:55,440
Speaker 2: twenty four NBA Draft. This kid average four point eight

921
00:43:55,440 --> 00:43:57,920
Speaker 2: points a game of USC. Didn't even start for USC.

922
00:43:58,280 --> 00:44:01,680
Speaker 2: All right, and Day Williams from the Four Letter Network.

923
00:44:01,800 --> 00:44:03,719
Speaker 2: I want to mention the letters from the Full Letter

924
00:44:03,760 --> 00:44:07,799
Speaker 2: Network had something to say about Bronnie. Let's hear from JW.

925
00:44:08,440 --> 00:44:10,360
Speaker 13: For me, this is just Bronnie James checking out his

926
00:44:10,440 --> 00:44:13,160
Speaker 13: options right going into the transfer portal. Why not go

927
00:44:13,239 --> 00:44:15,319
Speaker 13: through all the workouts. I know people are going to

928
00:44:15,360 --> 00:44:17,760
Speaker 13: jump to conclusions like he's definitely going into the draft.

929
00:44:18,120 --> 00:44:20,040
Speaker 1: Why not see the entire landscape.

930
00:44:20,120 --> 00:44:23,640
Speaker 13: So open up the portal, see what opportunities are there,

931
00:44:24,120 --> 00:44:27,360
Speaker 13: Go into all these pre draft workouts, go through the routine.

932
00:44:27,680 --> 00:44:29,880
Speaker 3: See where you're going to be, See what you.

933
00:44:29,920 --> 00:44:32,080
Speaker 13: Know Rich Paul company, what they're going to talk about

934
00:44:32,080 --> 00:44:35,200
Speaker 13: as it relates to what potential teams you could go to,

935
00:44:35,719 --> 00:44:38,799
Speaker 13: if that's you know, late first round, early second and

936
00:44:38,840 --> 00:44:40,240
Speaker 13: then weigh at all your options.

937
00:44:40,280 --> 00:44:41,319
Speaker 3: I think it's a smart move.

938
00:44:41,400 --> 00:44:43,880
Speaker 13: I'm not going to jump to conclusions by saying Bronnie's

939
00:44:43,920 --> 00:44:46,400
Speaker 13: definitely going to the draft. He's just seeing what the

940
00:44:46,520 --> 00:44:47,839
Speaker 13: entire landscape looks like.

941
00:44:48,600 --> 00:44:50,440
Speaker 2: You agree with that, mister Brooks.

942
00:44:51,560 --> 00:44:54,040
Speaker 3: I do agree with that. I agree with it in

943
00:44:54,800 --> 00:44:58,640
Speaker 3: a major way because everything is about information, is about options.

944
00:44:58,640 --> 00:45:04,440
Speaker 3: It's about knowing what art, what's available to you and

945
00:45:04,440 --> 00:45:07,359
Speaker 3: then making the best decision based on what the opportunities

946
00:45:07,400 --> 00:45:11,799
Speaker 3: are out there. Ronnie James, certainly people are on him

947
00:45:11,840 --> 00:45:14,719
Speaker 3: about the whatever, the low scoring average or whatever, but

948
00:45:14,760 --> 00:45:17,319
Speaker 3: the NBA is about potential. It's about like high weight

949
00:45:17,360 --> 00:45:20,000
Speaker 3: speeds projection, what he could be at the next level,

950
00:45:20,040 --> 00:45:22,560
Speaker 3: not necessarily what you did at the collegiate level. The

951
00:45:22,600 --> 00:45:25,640
Speaker 3: transfer portal is about finding the right opportunity to elevate

952
00:45:25,680 --> 00:45:29,520
Speaker 3: yourself to play at a high level going forward. So

953
00:45:30,040 --> 00:45:32,719
Speaker 3: Ronnie should explore those things. He should see where he

954
00:45:32,760 --> 00:45:35,960
Speaker 3: stacks up in relation to other players at the collegiate

955
00:45:36,000 --> 00:45:38,000
Speaker 3: and pro level, and then make the best decision based

956
00:45:38,040 --> 00:45:39,680
Speaker 3: on what is going to give him an opportunity to

957
00:45:39,719 --> 00:45:41,880
Speaker 3: get to his end goal. If his end goal is

958
00:45:41,920 --> 00:45:44,719
Speaker 3: to get to the NBA, he needs that information so

959
00:45:44,760 --> 00:45:46,160
Speaker 3: he can make really good decisions.

960
00:45:46,400 --> 00:45:48,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, I found that stress. As I mentioned, only average

961
00:45:48,520 --> 00:45:50,600
Speaker 2: four point eight points a game of US. He didn't start,

962
00:45:50,600 --> 00:45:52,560
Speaker 2: he played nineteen minutes a game. But I think one

963
00:45:52,560 --> 00:45:55,000
Speaker 2: of the reasons he did this and maybe way off

964
00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:57,640
Speaker 2: based though, but his coach at USC in the NFLD

965
00:45:57,640 --> 00:46:01,600
Speaker 2: he left, he left for SMU. There's a difference. Good Look,

966
00:46:01,640 --> 00:46:04,600
Speaker 2: he wasn't recruited by the new coach coming in, Eric

967
00:46:04,640 --> 00:46:08,080
Speaker 2: Musselman's coming in, and we'll see what had. Eric mussels

968
00:46:08,120 --> 00:46:09,840
Speaker 2: was a different kind of guy. You know, he's a

969
00:46:10,239 --> 00:46:12,959
Speaker 2: hard ass Eric Musselman, he really is. And maybe maybe

970
00:46:13,120 --> 00:46:15,120
Speaker 2: Brunni doesn't want to play for him. I don't know.

971
00:46:15,360 --> 00:46:17,440
Speaker 2: I don't know the reason. But when you talk about

972
00:46:17,800 --> 00:46:20,720
Speaker 2: checking options, it's not a bad deal. Check all your options.

973
00:46:20,719 --> 00:46:22,960
Speaker 2: There you go. Now here's something that here's a team

974
00:46:23,000 --> 00:46:25,160
Speaker 2: that didn't have many options. All right, I'm talking about

975
00:46:25,320 --> 00:46:27,480
Speaker 2: the team that's moving backwards. They're moving, but they're going

976
00:46:27,520 --> 00:46:29,759
Speaker 2: in the wrong direction. I'm talking about the Oakland A's.

977
00:46:30,080 --> 00:46:33,279
Speaker 2: They're moving to a modern league ballpark in Sacramento for

978
00:46:33,320 --> 00:46:36,240
Speaker 2: the next three years. This is one of those stories

979
00:46:36,239 --> 00:46:38,759
Speaker 2: that you say, if I'm a Major League Baseball player,

980
00:46:38,760 --> 00:46:40,920
Speaker 2: they played for the Oakland A's, I'm gonna end up

981
00:46:40,960 --> 00:46:42,799
Speaker 2: for the next three years playing in Sacramento with a

982
00:46:42,800 --> 00:46:47,200
Speaker 2: ballpark that handles fourteen thousand people. They've operated on a

983
00:46:47,239 --> 00:46:51,040
Speaker 2: shoe string budget since they have maybe made their desire

984
00:46:51,120 --> 00:46:53,319
Speaker 2: to leave their home city, and they're gonna call a

985
00:46:53,360 --> 00:46:55,960
Speaker 2: modern league ballpark home for the next three years. This

986
00:46:56,040 --> 00:46:58,960
Speaker 2: is an amazing situation, and it doesn't bode well for

987
00:46:59,040 --> 00:47:01,279
Speaker 2: Major League Baseball. It's like a black guy for Major

988
00:47:01,320 --> 00:47:03,200
Speaker 2: League based It looks disgusting. It really does.

989
00:47:04,640 --> 00:47:07,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, it does look bad. And as someone who spent

990
00:47:07,719 --> 00:47:11,399
Speaker 3: a lot of time living in the Bay Area, look, man,

991
00:47:11,440 --> 00:47:14,360
Speaker 3: this troubles me. It trust me because I know living

992
00:47:14,400 --> 00:47:17,759
Speaker 3: in Oakland, how much Oakland, the town, how much they

993
00:47:18,000 --> 00:47:21,080
Speaker 3: they represented the A's, how much they supported the A's,

994
00:47:21,600 --> 00:47:26,040
Speaker 3: and you have ownership group who has done nothing to

995
00:47:26,080 --> 00:47:28,680
Speaker 3: reciprocate that love. He's kind of pooped on the fans.

996
00:47:28,719 --> 00:47:31,120
Speaker 3: They haven't put a product, a winning product on the field.

997
00:47:31,400 --> 00:47:33,680
Speaker 3: They do have good players. Whenever they have good players,

998
00:47:33,680 --> 00:47:35,120
Speaker 3: either trade them off or they send them down to

999
00:47:35,160 --> 00:47:38,439
Speaker 3: the minor leagues. And it just appears that the ownership

1000
00:47:38,520 --> 00:47:41,200
Speaker 3: group is about the check. It's about the bottom line.

1001
00:47:41,200 --> 00:47:43,120
Speaker 3: It's about the investment in the protein that will go

1002
00:47:43,160 --> 00:47:47,160
Speaker 3: from being hundreds of millions two billions and then selling

1003
00:47:47,200 --> 00:47:52,279
Speaker 3: it out without worrying about how look how their departure

1004
00:47:52,960 --> 00:47:58,919
Speaker 3: impacts the town, the fandom, the city, the economics around

1005
00:47:59,480 --> 00:48:02,239
Speaker 3: the team, all of that. So to me, I hate it,

1006
00:48:02,520 --> 00:48:04,040
Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying. And I hate it because

1007
00:48:04,440 --> 00:48:06,799
Speaker 3: I was there. I was there shortly after they won

1008
00:48:07,120 --> 00:48:10,200
Speaker 3: the World Series. I was there watching them when Billy

1009
00:48:10,200 --> 00:48:12,360
Speaker 3: Bean and those guys came up, Moneyball and all that

1010
00:48:12,440 --> 00:48:15,600
Speaker 3: other stuff, and the team was exciting whatever, And they

1011
00:48:15,640 --> 00:48:18,680
Speaker 3: have done nothing to give back to the fans that

1012
00:48:18,719 --> 00:48:22,680
Speaker 3: have supported them forever. They have iconic uniforms, they have

1013
00:48:22,719 --> 00:48:26,600
Speaker 3: an iconic presence in Major League Baseball and they've done

1014
00:48:26,760 --> 00:48:30,480
Speaker 3: nothing to really reward the city that really supported them

1015
00:48:30,480 --> 00:48:31,080
Speaker 3: for a long time.

1016
00:48:31,440 --> 00:48:33,400
Speaker 2: So what I'm hearing from you, Bucky Books, is that

1017
00:48:33,680 --> 00:48:36,200
Speaker 2: you're down on this team. You're down on the A's,

1018
00:48:36,600 --> 00:48:38,960
Speaker 2: that they should have done more to make it more viable,

1019
00:48:39,080 --> 00:48:41,319
Speaker 2: maybe more exciting for them to stay, and maybe there'll

1020
00:48:41,360 --> 00:48:43,919
Speaker 2: be a ground swell that they stay. And I think

1021
00:48:43,960 --> 00:48:47,200
Speaker 2: that I'm more upset with the city of Oakland, where

1022
00:48:47,239 --> 00:48:50,200
Speaker 2: they didn't much. They didn't do a thing to improve

1023
00:48:50,239 --> 00:48:53,000
Speaker 2: that stadium, which is a dump. That stadium is. I

1024
00:48:53,080 --> 00:48:55,720
Speaker 2: was back there in nineteen ninety when the A's played

1025
00:48:55,719 --> 00:48:58,160
Speaker 2: the Reds in the World Series, and I was there

1026
00:48:58,440 --> 00:49:01,520
Speaker 2: and the locker rooms, I mean, back up, the toilets,

1027
00:49:01,520 --> 00:49:05,439
Speaker 2: back up. It's terrible. So if sports bring so much

1028
00:49:05,520 --> 00:49:09,319
Speaker 2: economic development and so much goodness to a city, it

1029
00:49:09,440 --> 00:49:12,520
Speaker 2: separates cities from being minor league to major league. Most

1030
00:49:12,520 --> 00:49:16,439
Speaker 2: cities in our country or are majorly considered major league

1031
00:49:16,440 --> 00:49:18,800
Speaker 2: if they have a professional team. If you don't have

1032
00:49:18,840 --> 00:49:21,400
Speaker 2: a professional team, you're not considered a big time city.

1033
00:49:21,520 --> 00:49:24,200
Speaker 2: At big time cities with teams, they attract kids out

1034
00:49:24,200 --> 00:49:26,680
Speaker 2: of college who want to work there. They attract businesses,

1035
00:49:26,920 --> 00:49:29,719
Speaker 2: it's great for business with restaurants, hotels, whatever it may be.

1036
00:49:29,960 --> 00:49:32,360
Speaker 2: So having a team is a great plus. And I

1037
00:49:32,400 --> 00:49:34,400
Speaker 2: don't understand why the people that run the city of

1038
00:49:34,400 --> 00:49:37,000
Speaker 2: Oakland don't understand why a team is not a plus

1039
00:49:37,040 --> 00:49:37,760
Speaker 2: for your city.

1040
00:49:38,560 --> 00:49:40,920
Speaker 3: Now I see because here's why I think it's different.

1041
00:49:40,920 --> 00:49:43,360
Speaker 3: And I watched it with the Warriors. Right when the

1042
00:49:43,360 --> 00:49:46,239
Speaker 3: Warriors were terrible and they couldn't get anybody, they were

1043
00:49:46,239 --> 00:49:48,680
Speaker 3: fine being in Oakland. When they flipped a switch. They

1044
00:49:48,719 --> 00:49:51,320
Speaker 3: then cash out and go to San Francisco. It doesn't

1045
00:49:51,320 --> 00:49:54,120
Speaker 3: seem like a major deal. But going from the town,

1046
00:49:54,160 --> 00:49:56,640
Speaker 3: which is what Oakland is referred to, to the city,

1047
00:49:56,680 --> 00:49:59,120
Speaker 3: which is what San Francisco is referred to, is a

1048
00:49:59,200 --> 00:50:02,879
Speaker 3: huge difference different faith fan base in terms of being

1049
00:50:02,920 --> 00:50:05,360
Speaker 3: from the East Bay to being on the other side,

1050
00:50:05,400 --> 00:50:08,480
Speaker 3: because you go from like the heart of the city,

1051
00:50:08,560 --> 00:50:11,400
Speaker 3: the urban part of the city, to now you're dealing

1052
00:50:11,440 --> 00:50:16,279
Speaker 3: with like the money makers, like a different crew. I

1053
00:50:16,320 --> 00:50:18,400
Speaker 3: will say this because owners have gotten away with us

1054
00:50:18,400 --> 00:50:23,920
Speaker 3: for a long time. Owners won't publicly financed stadiums for

1055
00:50:24,360 --> 00:50:28,000
Speaker 3: private profit, and it's not fair to the fans because

1056
00:50:28,320 --> 00:50:30,960
Speaker 3: what they like to do is push off all the

1057
00:50:31,000 --> 00:50:33,920
Speaker 3: money onto the fan to pay for everything and then

1058
00:50:33,920 --> 00:50:36,040
Speaker 3: they cash out. They don't the fans don't get any

1059
00:50:36,080 --> 00:50:38,120
Speaker 3: of that money, Like, yeah, we're part of the team,

1060
00:50:38,160 --> 00:50:40,520
Speaker 3: but you don't. You don't get any of that. And

1061
00:50:40,560 --> 00:50:42,560
Speaker 3: so I do understand why Oakland was like, no, we're

1062
00:50:42,600 --> 00:50:44,960
Speaker 3: not putting up all this money for you to then

1063
00:50:45,120 --> 00:50:48,040
Speaker 3: just take it for yourself, Like it's not a fair deal.

1064
00:50:48,160 --> 00:50:51,040
Speaker 3: It's no different than what we saw with the stadium

1065
00:50:51,080 --> 00:50:55,200
Speaker 3: deal in Kansas City. Like people are growing tired of

1066
00:50:55,320 --> 00:51:00,640
Speaker 3: billionaires wanting assistance from the working class to pay for

1067
00:51:00,719 --> 00:51:03,600
Speaker 3: these teams and stadiums when the owners are the only

1068
00:51:03,640 --> 00:51:04,920
Speaker 3: ones that are casting yet.

1069
00:51:05,200 --> 00:51:07,480
Speaker 2: Well, it's funny because I remember back in Miami, way

1070
00:51:07,480 --> 00:51:09,240
Speaker 2: back in the day, it was the late Joe Robbie.

1071
00:51:09,280 --> 00:51:11,759
Speaker 2: He built it. He built that stadium without public assistance.

1072
00:51:12,000 --> 00:51:15,120
Speaker 2: And I'm Ron Wright, I think that why should public well,

1073
00:51:15,120 --> 00:51:19,040
Speaker 2: why should the public have a tax levy leaned on

1074
00:51:19,160 --> 00:51:22,759
Speaker 2: them for the benefit of a guy who owns a team.

1075
00:51:23,160 --> 00:51:26,520
Speaker 2: It's not right. And these these tax levies, you know,

1076
00:51:26,920 --> 00:51:30,480
Speaker 2: and never ending tax on the digits keep I'm going, ongoing, ongoing,

1077
00:51:30,719 --> 00:51:33,239
Speaker 2: And look, it looked like the city of Oakland and

1078
00:51:33,320 --> 00:51:36,680
Speaker 2: the A's have met several times to explore some least

1079
00:51:36,800 --> 00:51:40,000
Speaker 2: extensions at that coliseum with the team, and the least

1080
00:51:40,080 --> 00:51:42,440
Speaker 2: expires after this season. This Sea is gonna be the

1081
00:51:42,480 --> 00:51:45,560
Speaker 2: fifty seventh year in Oakland and the franchise. The Oakland

1082
00:51:45,560 --> 00:51:49,439
Speaker 2: As also considered temporary homes in Salt Lake City, which

1083
00:51:49,480 --> 00:51:52,080
Speaker 2: is the club's Triple LA team, and of course in

1084
00:51:52,120 --> 00:51:55,000
Speaker 2: Las Vegas, which does not have a roof in Vegas.

1085
00:51:55,000 --> 00:51:57,040
Speaker 2: But they're talking about going to Vegas, and I think

1086
00:51:57,080 --> 00:51:59,759
Speaker 2: what's happening now is that maybe the people in Vegas say,

1087
00:51:59,800 --> 00:52:02,120
Speaker 2: you know what, we got second thoughts and I'm not

1088
00:52:02,160 --> 00:52:04,040
Speaker 2: so sure we want you here. You know, got a

1089
00:52:04,040 --> 00:52:07,399
Speaker 2: pro hockey and they got pro football. I don't think

1090
00:52:07,400 --> 00:52:09,960
Speaker 2: they need pro baseball. And maybe baseball just came a

1091
00:52:09,960 --> 00:52:11,760
Speaker 2: little too late, right, don't you think?

1092
00:52:12,960 --> 00:52:15,440
Speaker 3: Uh No, I mean, look, it's it's ownership trying to

1093
00:52:15,440 --> 00:52:17,839
Speaker 3: follow the money. They saw what the Raiders were able

1094
00:52:17,880 --> 00:52:21,480
Speaker 3: to do when they moved to Las Vegas. It has

1095
00:52:21,560 --> 00:52:25,040
Speaker 3: given them a tremendous amount of cash, and that cash

1096
00:52:25,080 --> 00:52:27,800
Speaker 3: has allowed them to change the way that they're able

1097
00:52:27,840 --> 00:52:31,000
Speaker 3: to compete because now you can pay and buy free

1098
00:52:31,040 --> 00:52:36,880
Speaker 3: agency and all of those things for the A's. You're trying.

1099
00:52:37,320 --> 00:52:39,880
Speaker 3: You're chasing a bag, right, so we're gonna take it

1100
00:52:39,880 --> 00:52:41,720
Speaker 3: to Salt Lake City. Oh, we're gonna take it whatever,

1101
00:52:41,800 --> 00:52:46,400
Speaker 3: and you've completely ruined the stuff going to Sacramento. Like,

1102
00:52:46,400 --> 00:52:49,040
Speaker 3: it's fine. So I've heard their name will no longer

1103
00:52:49,120 --> 00:52:51,319
Speaker 3: be like the Oakland A's. It won't be the Bay

1104
00:52:51,360 --> 00:52:54,240
Speaker 3: Area A's and just be the athletics. It'd be the A's.

1105
00:52:54,280 --> 00:52:55,960
Speaker 3: Like that's nice, it's cute. They're gonna play in a

1106
00:52:55,960 --> 00:53:00,520
Speaker 3: small stadium in Sacramento, but that ain't really the bay

1107
00:53:00,920 --> 00:53:03,839
Speaker 3: you know, that's not where the history is. I mean,

1108
00:53:03,880 --> 00:53:06,680
Speaker 3: Sacramento is closed, but they still don't consider that the

1109
00:53:06,719 --> 00:53:09,040
Speaker 3: Bay Area. It's just a different thing. They're taken away

1110
00:53:09,080 --> 00:53:12,239
Speaker 3: from the essence of what the franchise was. But look,

1111
00:53:12,239 --> 00:53:13,840
Speaker 3: when you're the only seeing you've paid the money to

1112
00:53:13,840 --> 00:53:16,200
Speaker 3: do it, you can do whatever, but don't expect the

1113
00:53:17,800 --> 00:53:21,839
Speaker 3: everyday person to pay up for your dreams and what

1114
00:53:21,880 --> 00:53:23,360
Speaker 3: you want for private profit.

1115
00:53:24,360 --> 00:53:26,400
Speaker 2: It's funny because the A's have not done much to

1116
00:53:26,440 --> 00:53:28,879
Speaker 2: help themselves. What do I mean by that? Last year

1117
00:53:28,920 --> 00:53:31,600
Speaker 2: they lost a one hundred and twelve games, second most

1118
00:53:31,600 --> 00:53:34,759
Speaker 2: in franchise history. This year they opened the season with

1119
00:53:34,840 --> 00:53:37,440
Speaker 2: a budget of sixty million dollars, the lowest of Major

1120
00:53:37,520 --> 00:53:40,680
Speaker 2: League Baseball. Now they have moved to Las Vegas has

1121
00:53:40,760 --> 00:53:45,080
Speaker 2: been met kind of like yeah, maybe, and the mayor

1122
00:53:45,160 --> 00:53:49,520
Speaker 2: of Vegas, the wife of the late mister Goodman, Carolyn

1123
00:53:49,560 --> 00:53:52,560
Speaker 2: Goodman's down the mayor. She said one point that the

1124
00:53:52,640 --> 00:53:55,279
Speaker 2: club might be better of staying in Oakland. So I

1125
00:53:55,480 --> 00:53:57,840
Speaker 2: don't think there's a great interest in having them there.

1126
00:53:58,120 --> 00:54:01,040
Speaker 2: This team averaged six thousand, four to thirty eight fans

1127
00:54:01,040 --> 00:54:04,000
Speaker 2: a game, and that number could seek even less. There

1128
00:54:04,040 --> 00:54:06,200
Speaker 2: were some games they would draining three four hundred people

1129
00:54:06,239 --> 00:54:08,360
Speaker 2: a game, which I don't know how that could happen.

1130
00:54:08,560 --> 00:54:11,440
Speaker 2: There's more people in a grocery store than in an

1131
00:54:11,440 --> 00:54:14,239
Speaker 2: Oakland age game. How does that happen? Do they not care?

1132
00:54:14,640 --> 00:54:16,200
Speaker 2: I mean, I guess they felt that.

1133
00:54:16,080 --> 00:54:18,480
Speaker 3: They don't care. They don't care because they put a

1134
00:54:18,480 --> 00:54:21,000
Speaker 3: Triple A team on the field. It's not even a

1135
00:54:21,000 --> 00:54:23,920
Speaker 3: Triple A team, it's a Double A team. Sometimes they

1136
00:54:23,960 --> 00:54:27,080
Speaker 3: don't put the players. Every time they get good players,

1137
00:54:27,440 --> 00:54:30,240
Speaker 3: they arch them off. There's a player I can't remember

1138
00:54:30,320 --> 00:54:33,960
Speaker 3: his name. Look, own base percentage was over four. He

1139
00:54:34,360 --> 00:54:37,120
Speaker 3: led the league and stolen bases and he sent him

1140
00:54:37,160 --> 00:54:40,480
Speaker 3: down to Triple A. And so you can't expect people

1141
00:54:40,520 --> 00:54:43,160
Speaker 3: to pay their hard earned money to go see a

1142
00:54:43,200 --> 00:54:46,759
Speaker 3: team when they don't feel like the franchise kires and

1143
00:54:48,040 --> 00:54:51,720
Speaker 3: if he ownership, if they refuse to put a winning

1144
00:54:51,719 --> 00:54:54,120
Speaker 3: product on the field, why would anybody do it? So

1145
00:54:54,160 --> 00:54:57,000
Speaker 3: I feel like it's self sabotaged to get to a

1146
00:54:57,040 --> 00:54:59,680
Speaker 3: greater gain, which is a new stadium in a new

1147
00:54:59,719 --> 00:55:02,560
Speaker 3: city in revenue for the ownership group.

1148
00:55:02,920 --> 00:55:05,600
Speaker 2: Okay, so they come into a new city right with

1149
00:55:05,680 --> 00:55:09,000
Speaker 2: the same ownership, and this ownership has shown us that

1150
00:55:09,040 --> 00:55:11,120
Speaker 2: they're not willing to get their hands in their pocket

1151
00:55:11,160 --> 00:55:13,680
Speaker 2: open their while to get players to spend and win.

1152
00:55:14,400 --> 00:55:17,560
Speaker 2: So what's the difference. What's the new city gonna do?

1153
00:55:18,040 --> 00:55:21,960
Speaker 2: I understand obviously the newness factor will be fans will

1154
00:55:21,960 --> 00:55:23,879
Speaker 2: come out maybe the first year, but you don't when

1155
00:55:24,000 --> 00:55:25,040
Speaker 2: they're not going to come back.

1156
00:55:25,800 --> 00:55:30,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, Well then probably the assumption or the plan from

1157
00:55:30,120 --> 00:55:32,000
Speaker 3: ownership is like, oh, okay, so now we got the

1158
00:55:32,080 --> 00:55:34,839
Speaker 3: infusion of money, so now we would use the new

1159
00:55:34,880 --> 00:55:37,919
Speaker 3: city's money to pay for the team that we want

1160
00:55:37,920 --> 00:55:41,000
Speaker 3: to have, meaning we'll use that influx of cash to

1161
00:55:41,160 --> 00:55:43,680
Speaker 3: now pay for free agents and we'll put together the

1162
00:55:43,680 --> 00:55:45,600
Speaker 3: farm system to do what it is that we want

1163
00:55:45,600 --> 00:55:49,080
Speaker 3: to do. But it's almost like spending on a credit card.

1164
00:55:49,520 --> 00:55:51,800
Speaker 3: I don't want to spend out of my pocket, so

1165
00:55:51,840 --> 00:55:54,960
Speaker 3: I'm gonna put it on credit and eventually the credit

1166
00:55:54,960 --> 00:55:57,080
Speaker 3: card company to take care of it, not owe me

1167
00:55:57,480 --> 00:55:59,680
Speaker 3: having to do it. Ownership doesn't want to pay the

1168
00:56:00,080 --> 00:56:02,920
Speaker 3: necessary money to put a winning product on the field,

1169
00:56:02,960 --> 00:56:05,560
Speaker 3: and it's unfortunate and it's sad. They want someone else

1170
00:56:05,600 --> 00:56:08,520
Speaker 3: to do it while they make this a business and

1171
00:56:08,560 --> 00:56:09,920
Speaker 3: they look at the bottom line.

1172
00:56:10,239 --> 00:56:14,279
Speaker 2: Amazing. Bucky Brooks, Andy Furman, Fox Sports Sunday on Fox

1196
00:57:28,920 --> 00:57:32,560
Speaker 2: got Ivan from oapland who wants to talk to Bucky

1197
00:57:32,640 --> 00:57:34,000
Speaker 2: Brooks on Fox Sports Sunday.

1198
00:57:34,080 --> 00:57:37,680
Speaker 12: Hello Ivan, thanks for talking my call guy. We really

1199
00:57:37,720 --> 00:57:38,439
Speaker 12: appreciate it.

1200
00:57:38,920 --> 00:57:40,520
Speaker 2: Thanks for listening. Go ahead.

1201
00:57:43,400 --> 00:57:46,240
Speaker 12: I have a friend who work with City and gave

1202
00:57:46,280 --> 00:57:50,400
Speaker 12: me like all the insights on what happened with the

1203
00:57:50,440 --> 00:57:55,320
Speaker 12: A's and the down show. It all started with the Raiders.

1204
00:57:55,320 --> 00:57:58,280
Speaker 12: A lot of people think that you know, the Raiders

1205
00:57:58,360 --> 00:58:00,400
Speaker 12: just up and left, and that's not true. It was

1206
00:58:00,440 --> 00:58:03,400
Speaker 12: the AIDS that forced the Raiders out. If you remember,

1207
00:58:04,200 --> 00:58:08,480
Speaker 12: the city gave the property on a got there's a

1208
00:58:08,560 --> 00:58:10,480
Speaker 12: name for it, where they gave him the property a

1209
00:58:10,640 --> 00:58:14,560
Speaker 12: promise to pay, okay, and the age had control of that.

1210
00:58:14,720 --> 00:58:18,960
Speaker 12: So Davis was handicapped. And the A's kept denying everything

1211
00:58:18,960 --> 00:58:21,040
Speaker 12: that the Raiders were doing. So now I get it

1212
00:58:21,040 --> 00:58:23,800
Speaker 12: when the NFL wrote that we won't put money behind

1213
00:58:23,840 --> 00:58:26,200
Speaker 12: the new state in Oakland if you kicked the A's

1214
00:58:26,240 --> 00:58:31,520
Speaker 12: out of the property, and the city never did, okay.

1215
00:58:31,560 --> 00:58:36,040
Speaker 12: The city sacrificed the Raiders for the A's because they

1216
00:58:36,040 --> 00:58:39,680
Speaker 12: said it was for jobs. Eighty two games versus eight, right,

1217
00:58:40,760 --> 00:58:43,400
Speaker 12: and that's why they did it, and so and so

1218
00:58:43,520 --> 00:58:45,800
Speaker 12: now the city feels jilted. So wait a minute. We

1219
00:58:45,920 --> 00:58:48,720
Speaker 12: let probably the most popular team of the two go

1220
00:58:49,440 --> 00:58:53,040
Speaker 12: for you and then you turn around and want to leave.

1221
00:58:53,080 --> 00:58:56,520
Speaker 12: It backfired on the ADS because Davis went down and

1222
00:58:56,720 --> 00:59:01,000
Speaker 12: flipped the profit. I mean so much so that now

1223
00:59:01,040 --> 00:59:05,120
Speaker 12: he wants to come to kill Las Vegas. And see

1224
00:59:05,160 --> 00:59:08,280
Speaker 12: the difference between the Aids and the Raiders is the

1225
00:59:08,360 --> 00:59:11,439
Speaker 12: Raiders spent their entire existence there, how much they love

1226
00:59:11,480 --> 00:59:16,840
Speaker 12: the fans. They named the nation after the fans. Okay,

1227
00:59:17,120 --> 00:59:19,840
Speaker 12: the ADS took that for granted, the loyalty for granted.

1228
00:59:19,880 --> 00:59:21,800
Speaker 12: He said, it's gonna be there. I can, we can

1229
00:59:21,840 --> 00:59:25,080
Speaker 12: just fleece these fans. But they forgot. We hate just

1230
00:59:25,160 --> 00:59:28,200
Speaker 12: as hard as we love. When you turn on us,

1231
00:59:28,360 --> 00:59:29,400
Speaker 12: we turn on you back.

1232
00:59:29,800 --> 00:59:32,360
Speaker 2: One quick question, Ivan, if I may, what's the reaction

1233
00:59:32,520 --> 00:59:35,280
Speaker 2: on the street in Oakland right now? They say, go ahead,

1234
00:59:35,320 --> 00:59:37,600
Speaker 2: good ridding, So they upset the fans.

1235
00:59:38,800 --> 00:59:44,040
Speaker 12: It's pure hatred, absolute hatred. I mean, it goes beyond.

1236
00:59:44,480 --> 00:59:47,200
Speaker 12: It's ain't even sad anymore. Just we hate you. We

1237
00:59:47,280 --> 00:59:51,360
Speaker 12: hate you from the very bottom of our existence. It's

1238
00:59:51,400 --> 00:59:56,200
Speaker 12: almost like someone came and slapped your mother well, and

1239
00:59:56,200 --> 00:59:58,000
Speaker 12: then all you want to do is get your hands

1240
00:59:58,040 --> 01:00:02,800
Speaker 12: around them and take them out. I mean, it's literally

1241
01:00:03,000 --> 01:00:05,400
Speaker 12: it's that I walked down the street yesterday and a

1242
01:00:05,480 --> 01:00:07,320
Speaker 12: fan yelled to me take that off.

1243
01:00:08,080 --> 01:00:09,000
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, that's happened.

1244
01:00:09,600 --> 01:00:12,400
Speaker 12: He say, why. I mean, I mean, I never met

1245
01:00:12,400 --> 01:00:17,120
Speaker 12: the mayor, but I understood. I understood what well I

1246
01:00:17,120 --> 01:00:19,400
Speaker 12: mean was he was literally that man. He said, man,

1247
01:00:19,520 --> 01:00:20,160
Speaker 12: take that off.

1248
01:00:20,560 --> 01:00:23,160
Speaker 2: There you go. I haven thanks for the call, be good,

1249
01:00:23,360 --> 01:00:26,000
Speaker 2: Thank you. Bucky. How do you like that? Huh? I

1250
01:00:26,000 --> 01:00:27,680
Speaker 2: hadn't heard that start before.

1251
01:00:28,040 --> 01:00:30,720
Speaker 3: Well, no, I think he speaks to defend him. Like

1252
01:00:30,840 --> 01:00:35,320
Speaker 3: they are not. They don't like what's going on. And

1253
01:00:35,480 --> 01:00:38,040
Speaker 3: they're right about taking advantage of the fans and assuming

1254
01:00:38,040 --> 01:00:40,680
Speaker 3: that they always were there, because that's the one thing

1255
01:00:40,720 --> 01:00:44,320
Speaker 3: that you can say about Oakland and and and their

1256
01:00:44,320 --> 01:00:46,600
Speaker 3: fan base, and I would say it transcends all sports.

1257
01:00:46,640 --> 01:00:49,680
Speaker 3: The Raiders, the Warriors, and the Age were all right

1258
01:00:49,680 --> 01:00:53,800
Speaker 3: there in that same area because the stadium like the

1259
01:00:53,840 --> 01:00:56,959
Speaker 3: Coliseum and what used to be called Oracle or whatever

1260
01:00:56,960 --> 01:00:59,720
Speaker 3: it is, uh now they all were right there. And

1261
01:00:59,760 --> 01:01:02,760
Speaker 3: so I was the early two thousands. I was there

1262
01:01:02,800 --> 01:01:05,920
Speaker 3: when the basketball team was bad, you know, and then

1263
01:01:05,960 --> 01:01:08,400
Speaker 3: Baron Davison do we believe crew kind of came through

1264
01:01:08,400 --> 01:01:10,200
Speaker 3: and made it how they made it pop? And then

1265
01:01:10,200 --> 01:01:13,000
Speaker 3: Steph Curry and their crew got it going. And there's

1266
01:01:13,240 --> 01:01:15,680
Speaker 3: no fan base like the fans in the Bay Area.

1267
01:01:15,720 --> 01:01:18,480
Speaker 3: When their team is there, they show up for them.

1268
01:01:18,640 --> 01:01:23,240
Speaker 3: And what I having to lose to like them trying

1269
01:01:23,240 --> 01:01:26,280
Speaker 3: to fleece the fans and take advantage. Yeah, they got

1270
01:01:26,280 --> 01:01:28,200
Speaker 3: win of it. I told you they're playing. But the

1271
01:01:28,280 --> 01:01:30,320
Speaker 3: double A team and thinking that people are gonna pay

1272
01:01:30,360 --> 01:01:32,920
Speaker 3: money for that product like that doesn't work. I mean,

1273
01:01:32,960 --> 01:01:35,320
Speaker 3: they're loyal to the soil, but not like that. They're

1274
01:01:35,360 --> 01:01:39,840
Speaker 3: not idiots, and that's what was being That's what was happening.

1275
01:01:39,880 --> 01:01:41,560
Speaker 3: And yeah, they have a right to be man. They

1276
01:01:41,600 --> 01:01:43,720
Speaker 3: also have a right to not show up because the

1277
01:01:43,720 --> 01:01:46,120
Speaker 3: product certainly isn't commiserate with the trying the money that

1278
01:01:46,120 --> 01:01:47,960
Speaker 3: they're trying to make when it comes to tickets and

1279
01:01:47,960 --> 01:01:49,040
Speaker 3: all the other silly stuff.

1280
01:01:49,320 --> 01:01:51,000
Speaker 2: I hear exactly what you're saying, and say, you have

1281
01:01:51,080 --> 01:01:52,680
Speaker 2: a double a team, fans are going to show up.

1282
01:01:52,680 --> 01:01:56,200
Speaker 2: But this past Tuesday in Kansas City, Missouri, the fans

1283
01:01:56,200 --> 01:01:58,040
Speaker 2: and the citizens took the power back. What do I

1284
01:01:58,080 --> 01:02:01,080
Speaker 2: mean by that? The fans and citizens rejected a ballot

1285
01:02:01,120 --> 01:02:03,400
Speaker 2: measure that would have funded a new stadium for the

1286
01:02:03,480 --> 01:02:06,600
Speaker 2: Kansas City Royals in the city downtown, and that fund

1287
01:02:06,640 --> 01:02:10,440
Speaker 2: will also have provided a Chiefs, some upgrades to Arrowhead

1288
01:02:10,480 --> 01:02:13,760
Speaker 2: Stadium and free reign over the complex that has housed

1289
01:02:13,760 --> 01:02:17,120
Speaker 2: both franchises for about fifty years now. The public was

1290
01:02:17,160 --> 01:02:19,920
Speaker 2: asked a forty year sales tax that would have funded

1291
01:02:20,000 --> 01:02:23,360
Speaker 2: roughly one point five billion for a new Royal Stadium

1292
01:02:23,560 --> 01:02:27,080
Speaker 2: and a modernization of Arrowhead Stadium. And they said, hey,

1293
01:02:27,120 --> 01:02:29,680
Speaker 2: you know what, this tax is not such a new tax.

1294
01:02:29,880 --> 01:02:33,160
Speaker 2: It's just a continuation of a three fifths of sales

1295
01:02:33,200 --> 01:02:37,320
Speaker 2: tax that was already funding renovations at the Truman Sports Complex.

1296
01:02:37,640 --> 01:02:41,720
Speaker 2: It's a way of saying, yeah, you the public, you're

1297
01:02:41,760 --> 01:02:45,360
Speaker 2: still paying off the renovations at Coffin Stadium. Now, you

1298
01:02:45,400 --> 01:02:47,480
Speaker 2: know what, vote for this and give us a little

1299
01:02:47,480 --> 01:02:50,120
Speaker 2: more money because you probably won't miss it anyway, all right.

1300
01:02:50,240 --> 01:02:53,360
Speaker 2: And you know what, the public said, no, fifty eight

1301
01:02:53,400 --> 01:02:56,919
Speaker 2: percent to forty two percent. And I get what you're saying.

1302
01:02:56,960 --> 01:02:59,400
Speaker 2: With the double eighteen, people are going, but you're talking

1303
01:02:59,400 --> 01:03:02,840
Speaker 2: about a double Super Super Bowl team in Kansas City.

1304
01:03:02,960 --> 01:03:05,240
Speaker 2: And the fans still stuck stuck up and said, you

1305
01:03:05,240 --> 01:03:07,960
Speaker 2: know what, we're taking the power back. The hell with it.

1306
01:03:08,080 --> 01:03:10,640
Speaker 2: You guys are multi millionaires. You want to pay it

1307
01:03:10,640 --> 01:03:11,280
Speaker 2: for yourself?

1308
01:03:12,440 --> 01:03:15,560
Speaker 3: Well, I mean that's that's it, Andy, Like, why are

1309
01:03:15,600 --> 01:03:17,760
Speaker 3: you asking the fans to build a stadium when you

1310
01:03:17,800 --> 01:03:19,480
Speaker 3: own the team. The fans don't share in any of

1311
01:03:19,560 --> 01:03:21,680
Speaker 3: the profits. I could see if it was the Green

1312
01:03:21,680 --> 01:03:24,040
Speaker 3: Bay Packers, but the Green Bay Packers aren't doing it.

1313
01:03:24,040 --> 01:03:27,400
Speaker 3: It's it's the Kansas the Chiefs, and obviously normally when

1314
01:03:27,440 --> 01:03:29,320
Speaker 3: you have those things, you have another deal in the works,

1315
01:03:29,400 --> 01:03:31,720
Speaker 3: like they'll move away from Arrowhead, they'll go somewhere in

1316
01:03:31,800 --> 01:03:34,720
Speaker 3: Kansas and they'll build a bigger complex, maybe near the

1317
01:03:34,760 --> 01:03:39,480
Speaker 3: stadium where the soccer team just built that luxurious spot.

1318
01:03:39,720 --> 01:03:43,040
Speaker 3: And the ownership and those things that cash out. Uh,

1319
01:03:43,120 --> 01:03:47,000
Speaker 3: that's what that's what it is. I mean, look, billionaires

1320
01:03:47,360 --> 01:03:49,479
Speaker 3: are billionaires for a reason. A lot of times they're

1321
01:03:49,520 --> 01:03:52,400
Speaker 3: really good at working the bottom line. Uh, they find

1322
01:03:52,400 --> 01:03:58,200
Speaker 3: a way to squeeze every drop out of a profit margin,

1323
01:03:58,600 --> 01:04:00,960
Speaker 3: a P and L sheet and continue to try and

1324
01:04:01,000 --> 01:04:03,360
Speaker 3: do that. So they'll squeeze the fans as much as

1325
01:04:03,360 --> 01:04:05,240
Speaker 3: they can until they can go elsewhere and squeeze some

1326
01:04:05,280 --> 01:04:05,760
Speaker 3: more fans.

1327
01:04:06,280 --> 01:04:08,160
Speaker 2: I'll never figure. When they built a new stadium in

1328
01:04:08,160 --> 01:04:11,520
Speaker 2: Cincinnati for the Bengals, there was a vote and what

1329
01:04:11,560 --> 01:04:13,520
Speaker 2: the Bengals did it was a smart move. They brought

1330
01:04:13,560 --> 01:04:16,680
Speaker 2: back all the old players, Kenny Anderson, the quarterback, Chris

1331
01:04:16,680 --> 01:04:19,200
Speaker 2: Collins with Boomer Sizon, they brought him out. They had

1332
01:04:19,240 --> 01:04:21,880
Speaker 2: a big deal at downtown Cincinnati and Fountain Square and

1333
01:04:21,920 --> 01:04:24,439
Speaker 2: it won. You know, the deal one they're voting one.

1334
01:04:24,720 --> 01:04:26,480
Speaker 2: I don't think that would happened today. I don't think

1335
01:04:26,520 --> 01:04:29,160
Speaker 2: that the people in town. Well maybe they would maybe

1336
01:04:29,200 --> 01:04:31,040
Speaker 2: because the team is winning and they did go to

1337
01:04:31,040 --> 01:04:33,840
Speaker 2: the super Bowl several years ago. But I just don't

1338
01:04:33,840 --> 01:04:37,000
Speaker 2: think fans want to have people the owners, sticking their

1339
01:04:37,000 --> 01:04:39,320
Speaker 2: hands in their wallet. I just don't think it's right.

1340
01:04:39,560 --> 01:04:43,360
Speaker 2: You got millionaires and billionaires asking working class people to

1341
01:04:43,400 --> 01:04:46,280
Speaker 2: pay for their deal, and it's not right. But it happens.

1342
01:04:46,280 --> 01:04:48,880
Speaker 2: And you talk about the Kansas City situation that happened

1343
01:04:48,920 --> 01:04:51,760
Speaker 2: just the other day. If they decide to move, there's

1344
01:04:51,800 --> 01:04:54,480
Speaker 2: gonna be some government in some city in some states

1345
01:04:54,480 --> 01:04:57,080
Speaker 2: say you know what, Kansas City doesn't want you, We'll

1346
01:04:57,120 --> 01:04:59,439
Speaker 2: take you and they'll pay for it. It's gonna happen.

1347
01:04:59,480 --> 01:05:02,240
Speaker 2: There'll be a city somewhere. And maybe Saint Louis. I mean,

1348
01:05:02,280 --> 01:05:05,560
Speaker 2: they lost two football teams and maybe they realized how

1349
01:05:05,600 --> 01:05:07,400
Speaker 2: important it was to have one. And they still have

1350
01:05:07,400 --> 01:05:10,160
Speaker 2: a stadium that's somewhat empty. Maybe Saint Louis will say,

1351
01:05:10,200 --> 01:05:12,600
Speaker 2: you know what, we screwed up, let's bring let's bring

1352
01:05:12,640 --> 01:05:14,480
Speaker 2: them back here. It could happen, right.

1353
01:05:15,080 --> 01:05:17,960
Speaker 3: It could happen. Just I think yesterday in the UFL game,

1354
01:05:18,080 --> 01:05:22,720
Speaker 3: Saint Louis drew over forty thousand fans. Look most in

1355
01:05:22,800 --> 01:05:25,520
Speaker 3: that league my shirt. So to think forty thousand fans

1356
01:05:25,520 --> 01:05:28,200
Speaker 3: showed up for a spring league game, imagine how many

1357
01:05:28,200 --> 01:05:32,520
Speaker 3: woul show up for NFL stuff. It's a real possibility.

1358
01:05:32,720 --> 01:05:35,840
Speaker 3: And look, ownership understands that the league at the top

1359
01:05:35,960 --> 01:05:39,360
Speaker 3: understands that they're more cities than teams, and so that

1360
01:05:40,520 --> 01:05:43,520
Speaker 3: creates a little competition. With competition, you're able to squeeze

1361
01:05:43,600 --> 01:05:45,320
Speaker 3: fan bases and get the money that you want and

1362
01:05:45,320 --> 01:05:46,200
Speaker 3: the deals that you want.

1363
01:05:47,200 --> 01:05:49,840
Speaker 2: I would say this, if Travis Kelcey is still dating

1364
01:05:50,120 --> 01:05:53,360
Speaker 2: Taylor Smith, let Taylor swift by the stadium and changes

1365
01:05:53,400 --> 01:05:55,600
Speaker 2: to Swift Stadium. Why don't they do this? She could

1366
01:05:55,600 --> 01:05:57,480
Speaker 2: pay for the stadium, right, let her do it.

1367
01:05:58,760 --> 01:06:00,520
Speaker 3: I mean, I guess you could pay for the stadium.

1368
01:06:00,520 --> 01:06:02,240
Speaker 3: But imagine how much height she would get if she

1369
01:06:02,320 --> 01:06:04,880
Speaker 3: did decide to pay for the stadium. Man, you know

1370
01:06:04,920 --> 01:06:06,920
Speaker 3: I already don't like her and liking this team, I

1371
01:06:06,920 --> 01:06:08,440
Speaker 3: can only imagine what that would look like.

1372
01:06:09,240 --> 01:06:13,320
Speaker 2: I will say this, I enjoy the Kelsey's I really do.

1373
01:06:13,520 --> 01:06:15,480
Speaker 2: I like Jason and I like Travis all right. They're

1374
01:06:15,520 --> 01:06:17,440
Speaker 2: from Cincinnati in the sense that they went to the

1375
01:06:17,520 --> 01:06:21,479
Speaker 2: University of Cincinnati. The Ohio guys. They're coming back next

1376
01:06:21,520 --> 01:06:24,800
Speaker 2: week to do their podcast at the University of Cincinnati,

1377
01:06:24,920 --> 01:06:27,480
Speaker 2: which I thought was a nice gesture. Okay, And then

1378
01:06:27,520 --> 01:06:31,720
Speaker 2: I read the fine print. Yeah, said the public is welcome.

1379
01:06:31,800 --> 01:06:33,680
Speaker 2: I said, wow, it's not a bad deal, right, the

1380
01:06:33,760 --> 01:06:36,560
Speaker 2: fine print said your public's welcome. It's one hundred dollars

1381
01:06:36,560 --> 01:06:38,760
Speaker 2: a ticket, and the money is going to the University

1382
01:06:38,800 --> 01:06:42,800
Speaker 2: of Cincinnati. Nil fund. I ain't going for one hundred

1383
01:06:42,840 --> 01:06:45,960
Speaker 2: bucks a ticket, all right, put the damper on it.

1384
01:06:46,080 --> 01:06:48,440
Speaker 2: I don't need to hear their podcast for one hundred bucks.

1385
01:06:48,520 --> 01:06:50,600
Speaker 2: That's all I'm saying. I mean, I didn't realize that

1386
01:06:50,640 --> 01:06:53,040
Speaker 2: was the deal. I thought, Hey, what a great gesture,

1387
01:06:53,120 --> 01:06:56,360
Speaker 2: guys play for Cincinnati. They're coming back doing the podcast here.

1388
01:06:56,640 --> 01:06:59,200
Speaker 2: No to money grab and I'm not going. And you know,

1389
01:06:59,320 --> 01:07:01,720
Speaker 2: I promise you there'll be a ton of people there too.

1390
01:07:01,760 --> 01:07:02,600
Speaker 2: I'm sure they will be.

1391
01:07:03,960 --> 01:07:06,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, there'd be people there. But once again,

1392
01:07:06,400 --> 01:07:09,840
Speaker 3: it's another thing. You have universities and programs. You have

1393
01:07:09,880 --> 01:07:15,120
Speaker 3: the everyday person paying for the team, not the university,

1394
01:07:15,200 --> 01:07:17,360
Speaker 3: but you have the fan none of it makes sense.

1395
01:07:17,440 --> 01:07:18,040
Speaker 1: Like it's night.

1396
01:07:18,200 --> 01:07:21,160
Speaker 3: It's one of the biggest bait and switch jobs that

1397
01:07:21,240 --> 01:07:26,400
Speaker 3: we're seeing where you're having millionaires and billionaires having everyday

1398
01:07:26,400 --> 01:07:28,360
Speaker 3: workers pay for entertainment.

1399
01:07:28,520 --> 01:07:29,720
Speaker 2: It's backwards.

1400
01:07:29,760 --> 01:07:33,560
Speaker 3: It's crazy, completely backwards, completely backwards.

1401
01:07:32,920 --> 01:07:35,520
Speaker 2: Unreal, it really is. Bucky brooks Andy Firm of Fox

Speaker 2: Sports Sunday on Fox Sports Radio. Now we're going to

1403
01:07:38,360 --> 01:07:40,760
Speaker 2: tell you why so many high school athletes choose a

1404
01:07:40,880 --> 01:07:43,760
Speaker 2: school that's coming up next live from the Tyrock dot

1405
01:07:43,800 --> 01:07:46,680
Speaker 2: Com studients. But first, first, of course, the man himself,

1406
01:07:46,880 --> 01:07:48,600
Speaker 2: Kevin Wyatt with your Sports Well, a lot.

1407
01:07:48,560 --> 01:07:51,200
Speaker 10: Of people, I'm sure choosing Iowa because of what Caitlyn

1408
01:07:51,280 --> 01:07:53,840
Speaker 10: Clark has done over the last few years there for

1409
01:07:54,080 --> 01:07:56,600
Speaker 10: that program, and she's gonna have a chance to cement

1410
01:07:56,680 --> 01:08:00,000
Speaker 10: her legacy by being a national champion. But she's gonna

1411
01:08:00,120 --> 01:08:02,360
Speaker 10: have one of the toughest obstacles in a way that

1412
01:08:02,440 --> 01:08:05,840
Speaker 10: she's faced in her career. The undefeated top rank South

1413
01:08:05,840 --> 01:08:09,200
Speaker 10: Carolina Game Cockset game is supposed to tip off around

1414
01:08:09,240 --> 01:08:14,240
Speaker 10: three o'clock Eastern time over on ABC and Caitlin Clark's

1415
01:08:14,240 --> 01:08:19,760
Speaker 10: semifinal win Iowa semifinal win against Yukon on Friday generated

1416
01:08:19,840 --> 01:08:23,839
Speaker 10: fourteen point two million viewers. That is the most watched

1417
01:08:24,120 --> 01:08:27,760
Speaker 10: women's basketball game of all time. Just to put in perspective,

1418
01:08:28,200 --> 01:08:31,160
Speaker 10: that's more viewers than all World Series games last year,

1419
01:08:31,240 --> 01:08:35,400
Speaker 10: all NBA Finals last game games last year, and all

1420
01:08:36,040 --> 01:08:40,919
Speaker 10: except for three college football games. So a lot of interest,

1421
01:08:40,960 --> 01:08:42,519
Speaker 10: and it's gonna be a great game.

1422
01:08:42,880 --> 01:08:47,120
Speaker 2: I don't believe. I don't believe, no, no, anyway.

1423
01:08:47,160 --> 01:08:50,360
Speaker 10: On the men's side of things, top rank Yukon heading

1424
01:08:50,400 --> 01:08:53,400
Speaker 10: to the national championship for the second time in a

1425
01:08:53,600 --> 01:08:56,280
Speaker 10: row as they roll over Alabama eighty six seventy two

1426
01:08:56,880 --> 01:08:59,360
Speaker 10: by that game tied with twelve minutes to go before

1427
01:08:59,360 --> 01:09:03,200
Speaker 10: the Huskies stepping on the gas and winning yet another

1428
01:09:03,240 --> 01:09:06,880
Speaker 10: tournament game by double digits, as they have so far

1429
01:09:07,680 --> 01:09:11,240
Speaker 10: this season. Purdue will be the opponent that the Huskies

1430
01:09:11,280 --> 01:09:13,960
Speaker 10: face after the boilet Makers hole off nc State sixty

1431
01:09:13,960 --> 01:09:18,160
Speaker 10: three to fifty behind twenty points twelve rebounds from Zach Edy.

1432
01:09:18,880 --> 01:09:23,320
Speaker 10: NBA regular season ends a week from today. The LA

1433
01:09:23,439 --> 01:09:25,200
Speaker 10: Lakers trying to get in that top half of that

1434
01:09:25,240 --> 01:09:27,840
Speaker 10: play in tournament because that means you'll need to win

1435
01:09:27,920 --> 01:09:30,120
Speaker 10: once to get in the playoffs, as opposed to having

1436
01:09:30,160 --> 01:09:32,320
Speaker 10: to win twice if you're the number nine or ten

1437
01:09:32,439 --> 01:09:36,080
Speaker 10: seed in LA. After beating the Cleveland Cavaliers on Saturday one,

1438
01:09:36,160 --> 01:09:38,719
Speaker 10: sixteen ninety seven, has now won nine to the last

1439
01:09:38,760 --> 01:09:42,360
Speaker 10: ten to get into that number eight spot. Nets were

1440
01:09:42,400 --> 01:09:45,160
Speaker 10: down by fifteen to the Pistons with only seven a

1441
01:09:45,160 --> 01:09:47,960
Speaker 10: half minutes ago, but Brooklyn rallies to win at one

1442
01:09:48,040 --> 01:09:50,439
Speaker 10: thirteen to one. Oh three seventy six Ers get another

1443
01:09:50,479 --> 01:09:53,639
Speaker 10: strong performance from Jroel NB thirty points as they win

1444
01:09:53,640 --> 01:09:56,760
Speaker 10: at Memphis one sixteen ninety six, and the Nuggets take

1445
01:09:56,800 --> 01:09:59,719
Speaker 10: down the Hawks one forty two to one. Ten NHL

1446
01:09:59,840 --> 01:10:03,519
Speaker 10: RA season has eleven more days left. Boston Bruins are

1447
01:10:03,560 --> 01:10:06,320
Speaker 10: overtime winners against Florida three to two, the Islanders shut

1448
01:10:06,320 --> 01:10:08,439
Speaker 10: out in Nashville, too nothing, and the Winnipic Jets winning

1449
01:10:08,479 --> 01:10:10,320
Speaker 10: Minnesota four to two.

1450
01:10:10,439 --> 01:10:12,519
Speaker 2: Back to you, guys, Kevin, thank you so much. We'll

1451
01:10:12,520 --> 01:10:14,320
Speaker 2: see you in just about an hour. He's Bucket Brooks.

1452
01:10:14,320 --> 01:10:17,320
Speaker 2: I'm Andy Furman. This is Fox Sports Sunday, and Fox

1453
01:10:17,320 --> 01:10:19,920
Speaker 2: Sport's ready on. You know what, you might be shocked

1454
01:10:19,920 --> 01:10:21,840
Speaker 2: with the winner that's coming right up, but also coming

1455
01:10:21,920 --> 01:10:24,759
Speaker 2: right up in about seven eight minutes. Bottom barrel betting,

1456
01:10:24,800 --> 01:10:27,760
Speaker 2: and of course it's the place that I get beat up.

1457
01:10:27,800 --> 01:10:30,519
Speaker 2: But that's okay, I can handle it. Now we talk

1458
01:10:30,600 --> 01:10:33,640
Speaker 2: about college coaches, and I guess, Buck, you would know

1459
01:10:33,680 --> 01:10:36,479
Speaker 2: this more than anybody else because you were a college athlete.

1460
01:10:36,680 --> 01:10:38,720
Speaker 2: The college coach is maybe the main reason why so

1461
01:10:38,760 --> 01:10:41,559
Speaker 2: many high school athletes choose a school in the first place.

1462
01:10:41,560 --> 01:10:44,320
Speaker 2: You know whether the coach is successful or not. That's

1463
01:10:45,240 --> 01:10:47,200
Speaker 2: one of the reasons. I guess. If he runs a

1464
01:10:47,200 --> 01:10:50,280
Speaker 2: specific style, then you fit in. Maybe this coach develops

1465
01:10:50,360 --> 01:10:54,639
Speaker 2: athletes like Coach call and Kentucky sent them to the pros.

1466
01:10:54,960 --> 01:10:57,880
Speaker 2: Maybe the coach creates a strong culture. Maybe the person

1467
01:10:57,920 --> 01:10:59,760
Speaker 2: in charge has an influence on you. I don't know

1468
01:10:59,760 --> 01:11:03,800
Speaker 2: what the reason with the transferportal. More players look at

1469
01:11:03,800 --> 01:11:07,000
Speaker 2: coaches throughout their careers. Now again, I ask you, what

1470
01:11:07,080 --> 01:11:08,839
Speaker 2: was the main reason why you went to North Carolina.

1471
01:11:08,880 --> 01:11:11,720
Speaker 2: Obviously you're from that, you were a fan, obviously, but

1472
01:11:12,000 --> 01:11:13,800
Speaker 2: there had to be one thing to say, Look, I'm

1473
01:11:13,800 --> 01:11:16,760
Speaker 2: going there because I like the coach. I'm sure it

1474
01:11:16,800 --> 01:11:17,360
Speaker 2: was the coach.

1475
01:11:18,520 --> 01:11:20,240
Speaker 3: I mean, the coach plays a big part of it.

1476
01:11:20,320 --> 01:11:22,160
Speaker 3: You tell young people don't make decisions based on the

1477
01:11:22,160 --> 01:11:23,880
Speaker 3: coach because the coach can leave it anytime. Go to

1478
01:11:23,960 --> 01:11:26,559
Speaker 3: a university where you can see yourself being there, whether

1479
01:11:26,560 --> 01:11:29,840
Speaker 3: you're playing or whether you're just a regular student. But ultimately,

1480
01:11:29,960 --> 01:11:33,679
Speaker 3: people make decisions on relationships. It's a relationship business. And

1481
01:11:34,000 --> 01:11:36,080
Speaker 3: when you have someone that's been recruiting you for multiple

1482
01:11:36,160 --> 01:11:38,439
Speaker 3: years and they're pouring into you and you begin to

1483
01:11:38,560 --> 01:11:41,479
Speaker 3: develop this synergy and connection with them, you tend to

1484
01:11:41,520 --> 01:11:45,320
Speaker 3: follow them and when they leave your heartbroken, It's one

1485
01:11:45,320 --> 01:11:47,679
Speaker 3: of those things guys have to understand and take themselves

1486
01:11:47,760 --> 01:11:49,880
Speaker 3: out of it. You can do a lot of things

1487
01:11:49,920 --> 01:11:51,280
Speaker 3: with the coach, but you have to make sure that

1488
01:11:51,320 --> 01:11:54,360
Speaker 3: you pick the school based on what you're looking for

1489
01:11:55,040 --> 01:11:56,879
Speaker 3: in terms of your four or five year experience.

1490
01:11:57,880 --> 01:11:59,760
Speaker 2: This is amazing. I read this the other day in

1491
01:11:59,800 --> 01:12:03,200
Speaker 2: The Athletic. If the players could choose any coach other

1492
01:12:03,240 --> 01:12:05,439
Speaker 2: than their own, who would it be? And on the

1493
01:12:05,479 --> 01:12:08,080
Speaker 2: flip side, which coach would they not want to play for.

1494
01:12:08,120 --> 01:12:10,040
Speaker 2: I'm going to ask you because you're an athlete. I mean,

1495
01:12:10,280 --> 01:12:12,080
Speaker 2: I guess I have someone an opinion too, although i'd

1496
01:12:12,080 --> 01:12:15,759
Speaker 2: have employed. What coaches would you like to play for?

1497
01:12:16,600 --> 01:12:18,759
Speaker 2: On the college side, well the pros really as well,

1498
01:12:19,000 --> 01:12:21,080
Speaker 2: or what coaches do you not want to play for.

1499
01:12:24,680 --> 01:12:26,960
Speaker 3: Let's see, so I want to play with someone in

1500
01:12:27,000 --> 01:12:29,320
Speaker 3: great So it's unfortunate like these two guys are no

1501
01:12:29,320 --> 01:12:31,360
Speaker 3: longer getting a college game. I would love to have

1502
01:12:31,400 --> 01:12:35,080
Speaker 3: played for either Nick Saban or Jim Harbor, two of

1503
01:12:35,080 --> 01:12:38,679
Speaker 3: the great coaches. I want to win. I want people

1504
01:12:38,680 --> 01:12:40,240
Speaker 3: that are going to give me the blueprint to help

1505
01:12:40,280 --> 01:12:42,240
Speaker 3: me win so I could play for a long time,

1506
01:12:42,560 --> 01:12:46,599
Speaker 3: not only collegiately, but professionally. So I would say right now,

1507
01:12:46,640 --> 01:12:48,680
Speaker 3: I want to go play for Kirby Smart. I want

1508
01:12:48,720 --> 01:12:50,559
Speaker 3: to play for Kirby sud because they have a blueprint,

1509
01:12:50,800 --> 01:12:54,519
Speaker 3: They're producing players that can play at a high level.

1510
01:12:54,560 --> 01:12:57,080
Speaker 3: They're winning a ton of games. It looks like he

1511
01:12:57,120 --> 01:12:59,599
Speaker 3: has a connection with his players that is different. So

1512
01:12:59,720 --> 01:13:02,080
Speaker 3: even though I know that I'm going to an environment

1513
01:13:02,120 --> 01:13:04,479
Speaker 3: that is really hard, it's going to be tough and demanding,

1514
01:13:04,800 --> 01:13:06,360
Speaker 3: I think I would be better for it when I

1515
01:13:06,400 --> 01:13:07,000
Speaker 3: came out of it.

1516
01:13:07,840 --> 01:13:10,439
Speaker 2: Okay, on the pro level, would you like to play

1517
01:13:10,439 --> 01:13:11,400
Speaker 2: for the Lions right now?

1518
01:13:11,400 --> 01:13:16,120
Speaker 3: And there coach I like Dan Campbell, Yeah, you know,

1519
01:13:16,240 --> 01:13:18,240
Speaker 3: I would still say like like if I go play

1520
01:13:18,320 --> 01:13:20,800
Speaker 3: for the Charges and play for Harbor, I would be

1521
01:13:20,880 --> 01:13:25,679
Speaker 3: with that if I could play in Pittsburgh for Mike Tomlin,

1522
01:13:25,880 --> 01:13:28,840
Speaker 3: I would be about that because of the connectivity that

1523
01:13:28,920 --> 01:13:31,920
Speaker 3: he has with the players. I like Dan Campbell, and

1524
01:13:31,960 --> 01:13:34,679
Speaker 3: I like the fact that Dan Campbell is a former

1525
01:13:34,720 --> 01:13:36,720
Speaker 3: player has assembled a coaching staff with a lot of

1526
01:13:36,760 --> 01:13:41,479
Speaker 3: former players that I feel like would be relatable. I could,

1527
01:13:41,520 --> 01:13:42,599
Speaker 3: I could, I could work with that.

1528
01:13:44,080 --> 01:13:46,120
Speaker 2: Does it make a difference? And I thought it may

1529
01:13:46,240 --> 01:13:48,160
Speaker 2: very well make a difference as far as a prose

1530
01:13:48,200 --> 01:13:50,719
Speaker 2: to concern, you want to play for a pro coach

1531
01:13:50,760 --> 01:13:53,200
Speaker 2: who played the game, right, I mean, you don't want

1532
01:13:53,240 --> 01:13:55,599
Speaker 2: to play for a guy who really never played the game.

1533
01:13:55,640 --> 01:14:01,360
Speaker 2: It's difficult to take direction and demands from a guy

1534
01:14:01,400 --> 01:14:03,760
Speaker 2: who's who you've never been there, done that, and he's

1535
01:14:03,800 --> 01:14:04,680
Speaker 2: telling you to do it.

1536
01:14:05,720 --> 01:14:09,280
Speaker 3: No, it's not necessarily difficult in taking the demands. I

1537
01:14:09,280 --> 01:14:12,719
Speaker 3: would say that sometimes when you play for guys who've

1538
01:14:12,760 --> 01:14:15,160
Speaker 3: played it, there's a level of grace that they give

1539
01:14:15,240 --> 01:14:18,200
Speaker 3: that maybe sometimes other guys won't give, I meaning they

1540
01:14:18,280 --> 01:14:20,880
Speaker 3: understand how hard it is to do some of the

1541
01:14:20,920 --> 01:14:24,000
Speaker 3: things that you're asking them to do. Between the lines,

1542
01:14:24,560 --> 01:14:28,000
Speaker 3: others may draw it up on the board and say, hey, look,

1543
01:14:28,040 --> 01:14:30,280
Speaker 3: this is how the ex's and o's move, but on

1544
01:14:30,320 --> 01:14:32,200
Speaker 3: the field, the exes and o's don't move like they

1545
01:14:32,240 --> 01:14:35,479
Speaker 3: move on the whiteboard. Sometimes it takes former players to

1546
01:14:35,600 --> 01:14:40,639
Speaker 3: give you a different perspective to understand that. Also, if

1547
01:14:40,640 --> 01:14:43,559
Speaker 3: they've played, they've kind of been in your shoes, and

1548
01:14:43,600 --> 01:14:47,080
Speaker 3: so they can give you a blueprint for success. And

1549
01:14:47,200 --> 01:14:49,320
Speaker 3: to me that's important. It doesn't mean that someone who

1550
01:14:49,439 --> 01:14:54,960
Speaker 3: hasn't played can't do that, But as a player, I

1551
01:14:54,960 --> 01:14:58,800
Speaker 3: can respect a former player doing it just because like, oh,

1552
01:14:58,840 --> 01:15:01,759
Speaker 3: he's been there, he's done that. That I'm more likely

1553
01:15:02,000 --> 01:15:05,479
Speaker 3: to buy in early than with someone who doesn't. Because

1554
01:15:05,520 --> 01:15:08,160
Speaker 3: one thing that players do. Every player goes to the

1555
01:15:08,200 --> 01:15:09,800
Speaker 3: media Guide, and the first thing they do is they

1556
01:15:09,800 --> 01:15:11,920
Speaker 3: look at all their coaches. They go to the bio

1557
01:15:12,040 --> 01:15:15,120
Speaker 3: and they see what level of accomplishment does that coach have.

1558
01:15:15,360 --> 01:15:17,639
Speaker 3: Did he play in high school? Was he a decorated player,

1559
01:15:17,680 --> 01:15:19,479
Speaker 3: What kind of player was he in college? Did he

1560
01:15:19,560 --> 01:15:22,439
Speaker 3: go to a big school or little school? Did he

1561
01:15:22,520 --> 01:15:24,840
Speaker 3: not play? All of this stuff matters, and so you

1562
01:15:24,920 --> 01:15:28,479
Speaker 3: kind of come into the room with some biases based

1563
01:15:28,520 --> 01:15:31,640
Speaker 3: on the research that you've done. Sometimes it can be

1564
01:15:31,720 --> 01:15:35,160
Speaker 3: hard for guys to really fully buy in if they

1565
01:15:35,160 --> 01:15:38,519
Speaker 3: don't believe that you've played well enough high enough to

1566
01:15:38,600 --> 01:15:41,479
Speaker 3: do it, and so they're slow to take the information.

1567
01:15:41,640 --> 01:15:43,760
Speaker 3: You can win them over, but man, you have to

1568
01:15:43,800 --> 01:15:45,680
Speaker 3: be on point and the same thing. Just because you're

1569
01:15:45,680 --> 01:15:48,280
Speaker 3: a former player, they may give you their respect early,

1570
01:15:48,600 --> 01:15:50,599
Speaker 3: but you still got to show them that you can coach.

1571
01:15:51,560 --> 01:15:54,120
Speaker 3: That stuff is a meritocracy when it comes to coaching

1572
01:15:54,160 --> 01:15:56,720
Speaker 3: in terms of the respect from the players. Not the

1573
01:15:56,800 --> 01:15:58,919
Speaker 3: jobs that you get, but the respect from the players

1574
01:15:59,240 --> 01:16:00,960
Speaker 3: you have to earn and you have to earn that

1575
01:16:01,080 --> 01:16:03,600
Speaker 3: by what you teach them, what to show them, and

1576
01:16:03,760 --> 01:16:04,720
Speaker 3: the knowledge that you have.

1577
01:16:05,240 --> 01:16:07,640
Speaker 2: Last, but not least, the athletics results over here for

1578
01:16:07,680 --> 01:16:09,360
Speaker 2: the second straight season. You want to take a guess,

1579
01:16:09,479 --> 01:16:11,600
Speaker 2: who are the coach other than their own that we

1580
01:16:11,800 --> 01:16:13,560
Speaker 2: most likely played for? I'm talk about women now, the

1581
01:16:13,600 --> 01:16:16,000
Speaker 2: women in the sweet sixteen this year? Which coach would

1582
01:16:16,000 --> 01:16:17,000
Speaker 2: they most like to play for?

1583
01:16:18,240 --> 01:16:18,320
Speaker 10: Oh?

1584
01:16:18,360 --> 01:16:20,040
Speaker 3: I would say probably down Staley.

1585
01:16:20,000 --> 01:16:22,760
Speaker 2: Bingo Bucky Brooks wins again. You know, only win the

1586
01:16:22,760 --> 01:16:25,719
Speaker 2: bottom barrel betting you're winning this too. So for second

1587
01:16:25,800 --> 01:16:28,400
Speaker 2: year old Don Staley coaches South Carolina wins that and

1588
01:16:28,439 --> 01:16:32,160
Speaker 2: coming up second. Gino Oriama from Connecticut was second followed

1589
01:16:32,160 --> 01:16:35,120
Speaker 2: by Kenny Brooks of Virginia Tech who's gone out to Kentucky,

1590
01:16:35,400 --> 01:16:38,920
Speaker 2: and Tara Van der Vere from Stanford. So Storne Staley

1591
01:16:38,960 --> 01:16:40,240
Speaker 2: wins at number one. There we go.

1592
01:16:41,040 --> 01:16:43,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, players like winning, players like people that build relationships

1593
01:16:43,720 --> 01:16:44,080
Speaker 3: with them.

1594
01:16:44,479 --> 01:16:47,120
Speaker 2: All right, here we go. The game is going all

1595
01:16:47,240 --> 01:16:53,400
Speaker 2: one way. Bottom barrel betting is freaking next bottom barrel

1596
01:16:53,439 --> 01:16:56,000
Speaker 2: betting right around the Corner's about maybe eleven minutes before

1597
01:16:56,040 --> 01:16:57,760
Speaker 2: the top of the hour. This is Fox Sports Sunning

1598
01:16:57,800 --> 01:17:01,360
Speaker 2: of Fox Sports Radio. It live from the tirap dot

1599
01:17:01,360 --> 01:17:04,000
Speaker 2: com studios. He's Bucky Brooks and May Furman. We've got

1600
01:17:04,040 --> 01:17:05,920
Speaker 2: a gate to play. What are we waiting for?

1601
01:17:06,000 --> 01:17:07,880
Speaker 1: Let's plays Bottom.

1602
01:17:10,720 --> 01:17:11,000
Speaker 3: To sleep?

1603
01:17:11,000 --> 01:17:11,760
Speaker 1: People get my money.

1604
01:17:11,760 --> 01:17:12,720
Speaker 4: I'll put your brain to.

1605
01:17:12,720 --> 01:17:13,320
Speaker 12: Sleep, Betty.

1606
01:17:13,720 --> 01:17:16,280
Speaker 2: And you know what here he is the I Man himself,

1607
01:17:16,400 --> 01:17:17,160
Speaker 2: the I Man.

1608
01:17:17,400 --> 01:17:21,080
Speaker 14: All right, Well, just to update with with last week's picks.

1609
01:17:21,120 --> 01:17:23,200
Speaker 6: Here do we have to search the.

1610
01:17:23,120 --> 01:17:28,400
Speaker 14: Skyline for flying pigs? Because Andy Furman took the w

1611
01:17:28,680 --> 01:17:32,240
Speaker 14: last week, you know, one to two over Buckie. This

1612
01:17:32,280 --> 01:17:33,599
Speaker 14: is the first time this has happened.

1613
01:17:33,840 --> 01:17:38,000
Speaker 2: No, I win every time there's any clips, so I'll

1614
01:17:38,000 --> 01:17:40,120
Speaker 2: win again maybe in the next forty five years. But

1615
01:17:40,200 --> 01:17:40,599
Speaker 2: that's good.

1616
01:17:40,720 --> 01:17:43,040
Speaker 14: All right, Good take that, Bucky Brooks, and we'll take

1617
01:17:43,040 --> 01:17:44,120
Speaker 14: the wins when we can get them.

1618
01:17:44,160 --> 01:17:46,120
Speaker 6: All right, let's dive in, though. Let's dive in.

1619
01:17:46,200 --> 01:17:49,400
Speaker 14: So this week we're starting off with e sports. There's

1620
01:17:49,400 --> 01:17:52,960
Speaker 14: a League of Legends tournament. So it's top e Sports

1621
01:17:53,120 --> 01:17:55,160
Speaker 14: at minus one oh five. That's the name of the team,

1622
01:17:55,200 --> 01:17:59,000
Speaker 14: top Esports versus JD Gaming at minus one twenty five.

1623
01:17:59,080 --> 01:18:01,160
Speaker 6: Bucky, We're gonna start with this week. Who you got?

1624
01:18:01,320 --> 01:18:01,519
Speaker 12: Ooh?

1625
01:18:01,800 --> 01:18:03,639
Speaker 3: Let's go top e sports all right?

1626
01:18:04,840 --> 01:18:07,360
Speaker 2: And uh, you know, I work with a guy in

1627
01:18:07,479 --> 01:18:10,280
Speaker 2: TV one is called JD. Hey webs his name JD Haywa.

1628
01:18:10,360 --> 01:18:13,599
Speaker 2: I gotta go with JD. JD's my guy. Yeah, all right.

1629
01:18:13,640 --> 01:18:17,040
Speaker 14: Next, we're moving over to pro bowling, the PBA Elite League,

1630
01:18:17,040 --> 01:18:19,280
Speaker 14: which I just learned about. So we have the Akron

1631
01:18:19,439 --> 01:18:24,680
Speaker 14: Adams Splitters at plus one twenty five versus Detroit Motown

1632
01:18:24,840 --> 01:18:27,799
Speaker 14: Muscle at minus one seventy five. These are bowling teams,

1633
01:18:27,800 --> 01:18:29,960
Speaker 14: which I didn't even know is a thing. Anyway, Andy,

1634
01:18:29,960 --> 01:18:30,519
Speaker 14: who you got?

1635
01:18:30,960 --> 01:18:33,719
Speaker 2: You know what, though Akron's a great city for bowling,

1636
01:18:33,720 --> 01:18:36,120
Speaker 2: there's no doubt about that. But I'm a Motown guy.

1637
01:18:36,200 --> 01:18:38,880
Speaker 2: I love Stevie one, the Temptations, the Fourth Tops. I

1638
01:18:38,880 --> 01:18:41,679
Speaker 2: gotta go with Detroit Motown, all right, Bucky who you got?

1639
01:18:42,280 --> 01:18:44,080
Speaker 3: I'm gonna go with Akron. I'm gonna go with Akron.

1640
01:18:44,120 --> 01:18:45,560
Speaker 3: I think that's the place where winners of one. I

1641
01:18:45,600 --> 01:18:48,120
Speaker 3: think Lebron was somewhere from that way, so we'll go

1642
01:18:48,160 --> 01:18:49,360
Speaker 3: with there Akron, all right.

1643
01:18:50,000 --> 01:18:51,240
Speaker 6: And then another bowling matchup.

1644
01:18:51,240 --> 01:18:53,920
Speaker 14: We have the New Jersey Kingpins at minus one twenty

1645
01:18:53,960 --> 01:18:57,880
Speaker 14: five or minus one twenty versus the Los Angeles Lucky

1646
01:18:57,920 --> 01:19:01,040
Speaker 14: Strake at minus one twenty as well, Bucky who you got?

1647
01:19:01,520 --> 01:19:04,240
Speaker 3: Oh the Lucky strike? Come on, la gotta wrap.

1648
01:19:04,800 --> 01:19:06,840
Speaker 2: Here's you blew it. See here's where you blew a Bucky.

1649
01:19:06,840 --> 01:19:10,000
Speaker 2: So you gotta gotta remember everything. New Jersey has to

1650
01:19:10,040 --> 01:19:13,120
Speaker 2: win simply because there was an earthquake there the other day,

1651
01:19:13,320 --> 01:19:15,880
Speaker 2: and the earthquake will shake the pins, so they're gonna win.

1652
01:19:16,240 --> 01:19:17,240
Speaker 2: New Jersey's gonna win.

1653
01:19:17,280 --> 01:19:19,439
Speaker 6: That logic checks out to me, Thank you very much.

1654
01:19:19,520 --> 01:19:19,920
Speaker 2: All right.

1655
01:19:20,000 --> 01:19:23,960
Speaker 14: Next up, we got Badminton. Uh so, Wolfgang net I

1656
01:19:24,000 --> 01:19:25,000
Speaker 14: think that's how you pronounced it.

1657
01:19:25,000 --> 01:19:26,840
Speaker 6: At plus one twenty would anyway?

1658
01:19:27,120 --> 01:19:30,760
Speaker 14: Versus Valentine Singer at minus one seventy Andy, who you

1659
01:19:30,760 --> 01:19:32,000
Speaker 14: got the Wolfgang?

1660
01:19:32,640 --> 01:19:36,080
Speaker 2: Anybody who has the nerve to call himself Wolfgang and

1661
01:19:36,200 --> 01:19:38,439
Speaker 2: not change his name, you gotta you gotta be good,

1662
01:19:38,560 --> 01:19:41,640
Speaker 2: really all right, Bucky Wolfgang Brooks.

1663
01:19:42,240 --> 01:19:45,320
Speaker 6: Yeah, give me the singer singer for Bucky? All right?

1664
01:19:45,360 --> 01:19:48,760
Speaker 14: And last, but not least, we have NRL Rugby. So

1665
01:19:48,880 --> 01:19:52,839
Speaker 14: it's the Canberra Raiders at minus one twenty four versus

1666
01:19:52,920 --> 01:19:55,479
Speaker 14: the Paramatta Eels at plus one oh seven.

1667
01:19:55,560 --> 01:19:57,080
Speaker 2: That was slow down to the mine. What are these

1668
01:19:57,120 --> 01:19:57,639
Speaker 2: cities again?

1669
01:19:57,760 --> 01:20:02,559
Speaker 14: Paramatta Canberra Raiders versus Paramatta Eels.

1670
01:20:02,840 --> 01:20:05,120
Speaker 2: Now these are cities. I would assume I don't watch

1671
01:20:05,160 --> 01:20:07,559
Speaker 2: Jeopardy that much. I wouldn't know the answers here, but uh,

1672
01:20:07,720 --> 01:20:09,519
Speaker 2: Paramatta and Kenbella, I don't know.

1673
01:20:09,600 --> 01:20:12,520
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think these are in Australia. But I apologize

1674
01:20:12,560 --> 01:20:13,439
Speaker 6: if I'm wrong about that.

1675
01:20:13,520 --> 01:20:14,280
Speaker 2: I have no way.

1676
01:20:15,040 --> 01:20:18,799
Speaker 6: Who's give me the Raiders Raiders for Bucky?

1677
01:20:19,280 --> 01:20:21,160
Speaker 2: Who are the Raiders? What city were they?

1678
01:20:21,240 --> 01:20:21,880
Speaker 6: Canberra?

1679
01:20:22,400 --> 01:20:26,120
Speaker 2: Canberra? And the other one's Paradonna Paramatta.

1680
01:20:26,120 --> 01:20:27,280
Speaker 6: I'm probably pronouncing that wrong.

1681
01:20:27,320 --> 01:20:29,800
Speaker 2: To be honest with me, I am too. I'll got Paramatta.

1682
01:20:29,920 --> 01:20:31,240
Speaker 2: Give me Paramatta all right?

1683

Speaker 6: The Eels?

1684
01:20:32,360 --> 01:20:34,559
Speaker 2: There we go, Hey, who's the winner in this deal?

1685
01:20:34,680 --> 01:20:36,080
Speaker 2: That and more? Where right here?

1696
01:21:11,200 --> 01:21:14,679
Speaker 2: into your wheelhouse. We're talking NFL football. Are you ready?

1697
01:21:15,400 --> 01:21:17,800
Speaker 3: I'm absolutely ready? Anie, I know you.

1698
01:21:17,880 --> 01:21:20,000
Speaker 2: Are you always ready at the best you are? Now

1699
01:21:20,200 --> 01:21:22,920
Speaker 2: talk about the Houston Texans. They got a star quarterback

1700
01:21:23,000 --> 01:21:24,599
Speaker 2: you know, on their roster. He's a rookie and he's

1701
01:21:24,600 --> 01:21:28,280
Speaker 2: on the rookie contract. They're not wasting any time surrounding

1702
01:21:28,320 --> 01:21:32,320
Speaker 2: him with elite talent. This past Wednesday, their general manager

1703
01:21:32,400 --> 01:21:35,879
Speaker 2: Nickosario landed one of the biggest offensive talents in the league,

1704
01:21:36,080 --> 01:21:39,040
Speaker 2: Stefan Diggs from the Buffalo Bills. The Texans are trading

1705
01:21:39,280 --> 01:21:42,120
Speaker 2: for the Buffalo Bills start, giving their quarterback CJ. Stroud

1706
01:21:42,600 --> 01:21:46,559
Speaker 2: now a legitimate number one wide receiver, and aiding a

1707
01:21:46,600 --> 01:21:49,799
Speaker 2: position group already loaded with pretty good young talent.

1708
01:21:50,000 --> 01:21:50,160
Speaker 7: Now.

1709
01:21:50,200 --> 01:21:52,880
Speaker 2: In return, the Bills will received a twenty twenty five

1710
01:21:52,920 --> 01:21:55,920
Speaker 2: second round pick through the Minnesota Vikings, that is, and

1711
01:21:55,960 --> 01:21:58,519
Speaker 2: the Texans will also receive a twenty twenty four to

1712
01:21:58,560 --> 01:22:02,000
Speaker 2: sixth round pick and a twenty five fifth rounder. And

1713
01:22:02,280 --> 01:22:04,880
Speaker 2: the Texans, as you know, with the surprise of the

1714
01:22:04,960 --> 01:22:07,280
Speaker 2: NFL last year, they went ten and seven, winning a

1715
01:22:07,280 --> 01:22:10,080
Speaker 2: playoff game with a rookie quarterback and a rookie coach

1716
01:22:10,760 --> 01:22:14,320
Speaker 2: and Jamke o'rians and the Digs tray to couple with

1717
01:22:14,360 --> 01:22:18,320
Speaker 2: some other offseason upgrades, could make Detexans, I'm gonna say

1718
01:22:18,360 --> 01:22:26,200
Speaker 2: this now a serious contender for the Super Bowl. Agree, well, no, yeah,

1719
01:22:26,240 --> 01:22:26,400
Speaker 2: you know.

1720
01:22:26,600 --> 01:22:30,960
Speaker 3: Like so here's the thing, Like as we talk about it,

1721
01:22:31,200 --> 01:22:34,800
Speaker 3: and we're going to the stretch where I know we're

1722
01:22:34,800 --> 01:22:36,280
Speaker 3: going to talk about a bunch of different things, but

1723
01:22:36,400 --> 01:22:40,000
Speaker 3: like we talk about super Bowls, and we talk about

1724
01:22:40,000 --> 01:22:42,680
Speaker 3: teams that are ready to go and offseason winners and

1725
01:22:42,720 --> 01:22:45,040
Speaker 3: who made moves and all of that stuff. But at

1726
01:22:45,080 --> 01:22:47,720
Speaker 3: the end of the day, like all the offseason activity

1727
01:22:48,160 --> 01:22:50,439
Speaker 3: really doesn't matter. Like we can get hyped about it,

1728
01:22:50,479 --> 01:22:53,360
Speaker 3: but how many teams have we seen have great off

1729
01:22:53,360 --> 01:22:55,880
Speaker 3: seasons and then it plays out during the regular season.

1730
01:22:55,960 --> 01:22:58,599
Speaker 3: It typically doesn't work like that. So I love all

1731
01:22:58,640 --> 01:23:00,439
Speaker 3: the fodder now, but it won't mean any thing until

1732
01:23:00,439 --> 01:23:00,960
Speaker 3: we kick off.

1733
01:23:01,640 --> 01:23:03,880
Speaker 2: Well, look, they're getting a superstar right now. And I

1734
01:23:03,920 --> 01:23:06,040
Speaker 2: think with cjstrod what he did, and again I think

1735
01:23:06,080 --> 01:23:08,080
Speaker 2: the question has to be number one, obviously he's got

1736
01:23:08,080 --> 01:23:10,080
Speaker 2: to stay healthy, but number two, can he have the

1737
01:23:10,120 --> 01:23:12,280
Speaker 2: season next year as he had this year? Because maybe

1738
01:23:12,360 --> 01:23:14,640
Speaker 2: he came on and he was unexpectedly came on, no

1739
01:23:14,680 --> 01:23:17,080
Speaker 2: one expected to do what he did. I mean, I

1740
01:23:17,160 --> 01:23:19,920
Speaker 2: don't know. I mean baseball is a lot different than

1741
01:23:20,200 --> 01:23:22,840
Speaker 2: bad in football because in baseball they talk about the

1742
01:23:22,840 --> 01:23:25,600
Speaker 2: sophomore slump. Guys come in the freshman year, they come on,

1743
01:23:25,680 --> 01:23:27,880
Speaker 2: pitchers don't know who they are, then they figure him out.

1744
01:23:28,000 --> 01:23:29,920
Speaker 2: And football, I think is differently. If you got it,

1745
01:23:29,960 --> 01:23:31,600
Speaker 2: I think you got it normally.

1746
01:23:32,200 --> 01:23:34,679
Speaker 3: Yeah you do. But what happens is this, so when

1747
01:23:34,680 --> 01:23:36,360
Speaker 3: you have the love of success that he had his

1748
01:23:36,439 --> 01:23:39,320
Speaker 3: rookie season, every defensive coordinator has studied every throw that

1749
01:23:39,360 --> 01:23:41,880
Speaker 3: he made last year. They would go and they'll find

1750
01:23:41,880 --> 01:23:43,880
Speaker 3: the games that he had poor games. They'll look at

1751
01:23:43,880 --> 01:23:46,360
Speaker 3: those games and then they're trying to replicate those strategies.

1752
01:23:46,720 --> 01:23:48,400
Speaker 3: The other thing that happens is when you were a

1753
01:23:48,400 --> 01:23:50,559
Speaker 3: bad team like the Textans, they played a softer schedule.

1754
01:23:50,640 --> 01:23:53,040
Speaker 3: This year they played the best schedule of anyone in

1755
01:23:53,080 --> 01:23:58,720
Speaker 3: the division. Year two, tougher schedule, more pressure, more expectations.

1756
01:23:59,280 --> 01:24:01,120
Speaker 3: They didn't have to work worry about that last year.

1757
01:24:02,160 --> 01:24:04,920
Speaker 3: Now that that house money's off the table, then you

1758
01:24:05,000 --> 01:24:06,519
Speaker 3: got to go and do it. And I think a

1759
01:24:06,520 --> 01:24:09,160
Speaker 3: lot of times the hardest thing is not the climb

1760
01:24:09,320 --> 01:24:13,240
Speaker 3: to get to being okay and competitive, but that jump

1761
01:24:13,320 --> 01:24:17,760
Speaker 3: from good to great is tough. And we'll see how

1762
01:24:17,760 --> 01:24:20,200
Speaker 3: they're constructed. We'll see if Tamiko Ryan has more in

1763
01:24:20,280 --> 01:24:22,760
Speaker 3: his bag as a second year coach. We'll see if CJ.

1764
01:24:22,840 --> 01:24:25,840
Speaker 3: Stroud can elevate his game. We also see if they

1765
01:24:25,920 --> 01:24:30,640
Speaker 3: will be willing to sacrifice their own individual success for

1766
01:24:30,760 --> 01:24:33,519
Speaker 3: the greater good of the team. When Stefan Diggs comes

1767
01:24:33,520 --> 01:24:35,599
Speaker 3: in and joins the wide receiver room that has Nico

1768
01:24:35,680 --> 01:24:39,800
Speaker 3: Collins and Tank deal All the balls can go to

1769
01:24:40,200 --> 01:24:42,560
Speaker 3: every player, So who's willing to share, who's willing to

1770
01:24:42,600 --> 01:24:45,000
Speaker 3: step back, who's willing to take kind of like some

1771
01:24:45,080 --> 01:24:48,120
Speaker 3: sacrificial roles to make sure that the team is good.

1772
01:24:48,680 --> 01:24:51,720
Speaker 2: Let's talk about Stefan Diggs again, because I scratched my

1773
01:24:51,760 --> 01:24:54,240
Speaker 2: head to see why the Buffalo Bill's let him go.

1774
01:24:54,280 --> 01:24:56,719
Speaker 2: He's thirty years old. He has put together six straight

1775
01:24:56,760 --> 01:25:00,400
Speaker 2: seasons with a thousand siving one thousand receiving yards, has

1776
01:25:00,479 --> 01:25:02,360
Speaker 2: at least eight touchdowns in all but one of the

1777
01:25:02,439 --> 01:25:05,400
Speaker 2: last seven years. But he did express and he did

1778
01:25:05,400 --> 01:25:08,200
Speaker 2: this publicly, did it on some social media accounts, some

1779
01:25:08,320 --> 01:25:11,760
Speaker 2: unhappiness with his usage in Buffalo in the last couple

1780
01:25:11,800 --> 01:25:14,439
Speaker 2: of years, and I heard through the grapevine there was

1781
01:25:14,560 --> 01:25:18,080
Speaker 2: like some tension between he and quarterback Josh Allen. But

1782
01:25:18,120 --> 01:25:20,519
Speaker 2: I'm not going down that road. But the Bills said

1783
01:25:20,560 --> 01:25:22,439
Speaker 2: at the time they would never be moving away from him,

1784
01:25:22,439 --> 01:25:25,120
Speaker 2: but said the team now was the time. Why would

1785
01:25:25,200 --> 01:25:28,000
Speaker 2: now be the time to move away from their most

1786
01:25:28,040 --> 01:25:30,759
Speaker 2: productive receiver that I don't get and they got nothing

1787
01:25:30,760 --> 01:25:32,840
Speaker 2: in return. They didn't get a number one guy back

1788
01:25:33,160 --> 01:25:35,880
Speaker 2: that they trade one second round pick and they're not

1789
01:25:35,920 --> 01:25:38,320
Speaker 2: going to get a wide receiver, number one receiver in

1790
01:25:38,400 --> 01:25:39,120
Speaker 2: the second round.

1791
01:25:40,640 --> 01:25:43,559
Speaker 3: No, And as much as people talk about this draft

1792
01:25:43,560 --> 01:25:46,599
Speaker 3: class being deep and talented, it is deep and talented

1793
01:25:46,640 --> 01:25:48,240
Speaker 3: with pass catches, but it doesn't mean there are a

1794
01:25:48,240 --> 01:25:52,000
Speaker 3: lot of number one receivers out there. Stefan Diggs was

1795
01:25:52,080 --> 01:25:56,360
Speaker 3: moved because he and Josh Allen weren't getting along. They

1796
01:25:56,360 --> 01:26:00,120
Speaker 3: couldn't exist in those things. There's a podcast out where

1797
01:26:00,680 --> 01:26:02,960
Speaker 3: there's a writer who follos at Buffalo Bill's Tim Graham

1798
01:26:03,000 --> 01:26:06,719
Speaker 3: talked about after the first game, there's a little spat

1799
01:26:06,800 --> 01:26:12,800
Speaker 3: between Josh Allen and Stefan Diggs, and look, it explains

1800
01:26:12,880 --> 01:26:16,000
Speaker 3: why that relationship fell apart a little bit. But I

1801
01:26:16,000 --> 01:26:18,920
Speaker 3: will say this, you don't have Stephan Diggs on your

1802
01:26:18,960 --> 01:26:22,160
Speaker 3: team and then not have the kind of production didn't

1803
01:26:22,200 --> 01:26:25,519
Speaker 3: stretch without it being a little bit by design. He

1804
01:26:25,600 --> 01:26:27,400
Speaker 3: was tearing up the lead the first nine weeks of

1805
01:26:27,439 --> 01:26:30,679
Speaker 3: the season. The last seven or eight weeks of the season,

1806
01:26:30,760 --> 01:26:34,479
Speaker 3: he was a non factor. So you remove him from

1807
01:26:34,479 --> 01:26:37,759
Speaker 3: the situation, all the personnel goes on Josh Allen because

1808
01:26:37,760 --> 01:26:39,439
Speaker 3: the public is going to say, oh, we got to

1809
01:26:39,439 --> 01:26:41,120
Speaker 3: get them weapons, we got to do this, we got

1810
01:26:41,120 --> 01:26:43,439
Speaker 3: to do that. Well, Josh Allen is now making Pat

1811
01:26:43,479 --> 01:26:47,240
Speaker 3: Mahomes money, and the expectation should be that Josh Allen

1812
01:26:47,640 --> 01:26:50,559
Speaker 3: is good enough to elevate those around him, including the

1813
01:26:50,600 --> 01:26:54,080
Speaker 3: past catchers. We will now see if Josh Allen is

1814
01:26:54,120 --> 01:26:57,360
Speaker 3: really as close to Pat Mahome as we kind of

1815
01:26:57,400 --> 01:27:01,639
Speaker 3: project him to be, because when we removed Tyreek Hill

1816
01:27:01,640 --> 01:27:03,680
Speaker 3: from Patrick Mahomes, he comes back and wins back to

1817
01:27:03,720 --> 01:27:06,759
Speaker 3: back Super Bowls. We remove Stefan Diggs from Josh Allen.

1818
01:27:07,520 --> 01:27:08,719
Speaker 3: Let's see how it plays out.

1819
01:27:09,200 --> 01:27:11,720
Speaker 2: Okay, he had one hundred and seven catches lest year Diggs. Okay,

1820
01:27:11,800 --> 01:27:14,080
Speaker 2: would it be fair for me to say that that

1821
01:27:14,320 --> 01:27:19,360
Speaker 2: Stefan Diggs may have been the reason that put Josh

1822
01:27:19,400 --> 01:27:22,920
Speaker 2: Allen's graph on the upswing. We'll see right now. I

1823
01:27:22,920 --> 01:27:25,000
Speaker 2: mean I think that that, and you know as well

1824
01:27:25,040 --> 01:27:27,240
Speaker 2: as I do that sometimes quarterback can make receivers and

1825
01:27:27,280 --> 01:27:30,479
Speaker 2: receivers can make quarterbacks. I think Stefan Diggs was the

1826
01:27:30,520 --> 01:27:33,439
Speaker 2: one that made Josh Allen put him into its second

1827
01:27:33,439 --> 01:27:37,439
Speaker 2: tier of quarterbacks to the first tier of quarterbacks. I

1828
01:27:37,479 --> 01:27:39,040
Speaker 2: really believe he did that to him.

1829
01:27:39,520 --> 01:27:41,880
Speaker 3: He absolutely did it, because those first couple of years

1830
01:27:41,920 --> 01:27:45,479
Speaker 3: Josh Allen really struggled with his accuracy. Stefan Diggs comes in,

1831
01:27:46,680 --> 01:27:49,040
Speaker 3: Josh Allen games goes to another level. Part of the

1832
01:27:49,040 --> 01:27:53,799
Speaker 3: reason is because the veteran receiver understands the offense, understands defense,

1833
01:27:53,880 --> 01:27:55,400
Speaker 3: knows how to get in spots where he can put

1834
01:27:55,439 --> 01:27:58,400
Speaker 3: himself in a position where he can get the ball.

1835
01:27:59,120 --> 01:28:01,680
Speaker 3: Stepan Diggs did all of that for Josh Allen. Now

1836
01:28:01,760 --> 01:28:05,040
Speaker 3: Josh Allen has to do it for somebody else. We've seen.

1837
01:28:05,400 --> 01:28:08,519
Speaker 3: We've seen this happen a few different times. The quarterback

1838
01:28:08,560 --> 01:28:11,439
Speaker 3: gets paid significant money. You can't keep everybody, and you

1839
01:28:11,520 --> 01:28:13,760
Speaker 3: expect a quarterback to play at a high level. We

1840
01:28:13,800 --> 01:28:16,280
Speaker 3: will now see if Josh Allen can put this offense

1841
01:28:16,320 --> 01:28:18,519
Speaker 3: on his back and make it happen. The other person

1842
01:28:18,520 --> 01:28:22,639
Speaker 3: who has a lot of pressure Joe Brady, the offensive

1843
01:28:22,680 --> 01:28:25,639
Speaker 3: coordinator who took over for Ken Dorsey. It was all

1844
01:28:25,680 --> 01:28:28,520
Speaker 3: fun and games, but remember we saw him in Carolina.

1845
01:28:28,600 --> 01:28:30,439
Speaker 3: It fell apart and they had to usher him out.

1846
01:28:30,760 --> 01:28:34,120
Speaker 3: Now you remove Stefan Diggs, does he have a system

1847
01:28:34,160 --> 01:28:37,160
Speaker 3: in place that allows this team to overcome some of

1848
01:28:37,160 --> 01:28:39,599
Speaker 3: the deficiencies that have we'll see.

1849
01:28:40,960 --> 01:28:43,759
Speaker 2: I did not listen to that podcast. As you mentioned,

1850
01:28:44,200 --> 01:28:48,960
Speaker 2: Tim Graham's podcast Is there any truth that there was

1851
01:28:49,000 --> 01:28:53,280
Speaker 2: a problem between Josh Allen and Stefan Diggs and there

1852
01:28:53,280 --> 01:28:56,519
Speaker 2: may have been a woman involved. Is that possible. I've

1853
01:28:56,560 --> 01:28:58,040
Speaker 2: heard some about that.

1854
01:28:58,600 --> 01:29:00,000
Speaker 3: No, I don't know, but I don't know about it.

1855
01:29:00,040 --> 01:29:01,960
Speaker 3: That part. This was all on field, So like this

1856
01:29:02,080 --> 01:29:05,040
Speaker 3: was all on field about like getting the ball or whatever.

1857
01:29:05,080 --> 01:29:07,000
Speaker 3: Like I don't know anything about their personal lives or

1858
01:29:07,000 --> 01:29:09,080
Speaker 3: personal why.

1859
01:29:09,160 --> 01:29:11,439
Speaker 2: But I think that that couldn't move onto the field.

1860
01:29:11,520 --> 01:29:13,120
Speaker 3: I mean that could, that could, But I don't think.

1861
01:29:13,120 --> 01:29:14,960
Speaker 3: I don't think this. I think this is a thing

1862
01:29:15,040 --> 01:29:18,599
Speaker 3: that happens on the field, like something on the field,

1863
01:29:18,640 --> 01:29:22,200
Speaker 3: something after the game, something where Josh Allen and Stepan

1864
01:29:22,240 --> 01:29:24,720
Speaker 3: Diggs get into it and it appeared that they never

1865
01:29:25,080 --> 01:29:30,280
Speaker 3: their relationship never recovered from that. And you know, people

1866
01:29:30,280 --> 01:29:32,719
Speaker 3: are paying Stephan Diggs to be the bad guy because

1867
01:29:32,720 --> 01:29:36,879
Speaker 3: he left Minnesota with Kirk Cousins. He's now left Buffalo Bills,

1868
01:29:37,080 --> 01:29:39,240
Speaker 3: so there's a lot on him to prove that he

1869
01:29:39,280 --> 01:29:41,840
Speaker 3: can be a good teammate in those things. But there's

1870
01:29:41,880 --> 01:29:44,280
Speaker 3: even more for Josh Allen to prove that he is

1871
01:29:44,320 --> 01:29:46,760
Speaker 3: what many people say he is in terms of being

1872
01:29:46,800 --> 01:29:48,680
Speaker 3: the only guy, the next guy to be able to

1873
01:29:48,760 --> 01:29:53,240
Speaker 3: challenge Pat Mahomes for supremacy as like that quarterback.

1874
01:29:53,120 --> 01:29:55,439
Speaker 2: Right, But didn't Stefan Diggs come into the locker room

1875
01:29:55,520 --> 01:29:57,920
Speaker 2: after a loss and tell Josh Allen to his face

1876
01:29:58,120 --> 01:30:01,760
Speaker 2: it's only a game and that was a problem. That's

1877
01:30:01,760 --> 01:30:03,760
Speaker 2: the life herds as well. He said, it's only a

1878
01:30:03,800 --> 01:30:05,040
Speaker 2: game after a loss and that.

1879
01:30:05,280 --> 01:30:06,800
Speaker 3: I thought that was I thought that was I thought

1880
01:30:06,840 --> 01:30:07,639
Speaker 3: that was Josh Allen.

1881
01:30:07,760 --> 01:30:09,439
Speaker 2: Josh okay.

1882
01:30:11,560 --> 01:30:15,960
Speaker 3: Josh Allen said, Josh Allen said that, uh, reportedly to

1883
01:30:16,160 --> 01:30:20,679
Speaker 3: Stephan Diggs and as a reply to whatever Stephan Diggs

1884
01:30:20,680 --> 01:30:22,320
Speaker 3: has said to him. But it was a bit of

1885
01:30:22,320 --> 01:30:23,960
Speaker 3: a scene, and it was a bit of a scene

1886
01:30:24,080 --> 01:30:30,680
Speaker 3: after the thing. But I'll say this, players are okay

1887
01:30:30,800 --> 01:30:33,479
Speaker 3: like having hard conversations with one another, but there's a

1888
01:30:33,520 --> 01:30:36,799
Speaker 3: lot of respect that must remain between those two parties,

1889
01:30:36,960 --> 01:30:41,120
Speaker 3: and if it is seen as disrespectful, it can be

1890
01:30:41,200 --> 01:30:45,600
Speaker 3: very difficult to get over that part of it. And so,

1891
01:30:46,000 --> 01:30:49,200
Speaker 3: I mean, evidently they couldn't get past it. We heard

1892
01:30:49,240 --> 01:30:52,280
Speaker 3: the rumblings from Tension and Sean McDermott had had said it,

1893
01:30:52,360 --> 01:30:56,720
Speaker 3: and maybe it was the disgruntle Stephan Diggs that had

1894
01:30:56,760 --> 01:30:59,280
Speaker 3: to get out the building. But it's significant that Brandon

1895
01:30:59,360 --> 01:31:02,759
Speaker 3: being in company, got Stefon Diggs in took minimum in return.

1896
01:31:03,120 --> 01:31:05,559
Speaker 3: They just wanted him out the building. We now will

1897
01:31:05,600 --> 01:31:08,600
Speaker 3: see how that impacts the rest of the team. Do

1898
01:31:08,680 --> 01:31:11,760
Speaker 3: they have better chemistry? Can Josh Allen develop a better thing?

1899
01:31:11,800 --> 01:31:14,439
Speaker 3: Because when I look at this team on paper, after

1900
01:31:14,479 --> 01:31:18,560
Speaker 3: the exodus of all the veterans over the last few weeks,

1901
01:31:18,960 --> 01:31:20,519
Speaker 3: I can't imagine how this team is going to be

1902
01:31:20,560 --> 01:31:24,400
Speaker 3: at a very competitive level next fall.

1903
01:31:24,520 --> 01:31:26,960
Speaker 2: Well, look, he started off like a house on fire

1904
01:31:27,040 --> 01:31:29,160
Speaker 2: last year, as I mentioned, at one hundred and seven catches,

1905
01:31:29,160 --> 01:31:32,320
Speaker 2: But the Buffalo offense showed that their offense could thrive

1906
01:31:32,479 --> 01:31:35,479
Speaker 2: even with Digs kind of fading into the background as

1907
01:31:35,479 --> 01:31:37,439
Speaker 2: a season war on. But I got to believe they're

1908
01:31:37,439 --> 01:31:40,360
Speaker 2: going to miss them greatly. And you mentioned the receivers

1909
01:31:40,360 --> 01:31:43,559
Speaker 2: in the Texans organization right now, Nico Collins and Tank Dell.

1910
01:31:43,960 --> 01:31:47,360
Speaker 2: Collins had eighty catches last year for over twelve hundred

1911
01:31:47,439 --> 01:31:50,439
Speaker 2: yards and eight touchdowns, and Dell had a fast start

1912
01:31:50,479 --> 01:31:53,080
Speaker 2: as a rookie. He had forty seven catches, seven hundred

1913
01:31:53,080 --> 01:31:55,400
Speaker 2: and nine yards, had seven touchdowns, but then he had

1914
01:31:55,439 --> 01:31:58,719
Speaker 2: that fractured fibula in week thirteen that ended his season.

1915
01:31:58,920 --> 01:32:00,960
Speaker 2: So you mentioned it early on. There's gonna be a

1916
01:32:01,000 --> 01:32:03,839
Speaker 2: problem here, Like there's only one football and if Stefan

1917
01:32:03,920 --> 01:32:06,960
Speaker 2: Diggs doesn't get the football could be a problem.

1918
01:32:07,240 --> 01:32:09,000
Speaker 3: I mean, you look, he's going down there to be

1919
01:32:09,000 --> 01:32:11,200
Speaker 3: the number one. They're paying him the money. He's going

1920
01:32:11,200 --> 01:32:14,800
Speaker 3: down to be number one. But understand this, young receivers

1921
01:32:14,840 --> 01:32:17,160
Speaker 3: will look up to Stephan Diggs when he came into

1922
01:32:17,200 --> 01:32:19,960
Speaker 3: the league. Tank Dale would look at Stefan Diggs every

1923
01:32:20,040 --> 01:32:22,360
Speaker 3: move and want to learn from him. I don't think

1924
01:32:22,360 --> 01:32:24,679
Speaker 3: it'll be an issue when it comes to the jealousy

1925
01:32:24,720 --> 01:32:27,280
Speaker 3: in those things. Those young guys will want to pick

1926
01:32:27,320 --> 01:32:29,200
Speaker 3: his brain because he's been a veteran. He's done at

1927
01:32:29,120 --> 01:32:31,920
Speaker 3: a high level for a long time. It's now just

1928
01:32:31,960 --> 01:32:36,120
Speaker 3: a matter of CJ. Stroud managing the expectations and all

1929
01:32:36,160 --> 01:32:38,080
Speaker 3: of those things, making sure that he stays with the

1930
01:32:38,080 --> 01:32:42,120
Speaker 3: progression and doesn't force feed the ball to step on.

1931
01:32:42,280 --> 01:32:45,599
Speaker 3: Because they brought him over and he's making big money,

1932
01:32:45,640 --> 01:32:47,879
Speaker 3: they still have to play within the confounds of the offense.

1933
01:32:48,400 --> 01:32:49,960
Speaker 3: They just have to do a better job of doing

1934
01:32:49,920 --> 01:32:51,719
Speaker 3: in the chemistry with all with the pieces.

1935
01:32:52,000 --> 01:32:53,599
Speaker 2: Okay, So let's look at Buffalo right now. They got

1936
01:32:53,640 --> 01:32:55,880
Speaker 2: to replace him with the number one target in Buffalo.

1937
01:32:55,960 --> 01:32:57,519
Speaker 2: And I tell you what, it's fair to say that

1938
01:32:57,840 --> 01:32:59,799
Speaker 2: we're looking at the graph right now. We see Buffalo

1939
01:33:00,200 --> 01:33:02,400
Speaker 2: on the down side, and I think the Houston Texas

1940
01:33:02,600 --> 01:33:04,599
Speaker 2: moving on the upside. And we said early on that

1941
01:33:05,080 --> 01:33:07,240
Speaker 2: this team could be a serious contendent for the Super Bowl.

1942
01:33:07,560 --> 01:33:09,559
Speaker 2: I can't say that now about the Buffalo Bills.

1943
01:33:11,680 --> 01:33:13,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, I would agree with you. I don't think they're

1944
01:33:13,720 --> 01:33:16,799
Speaker 3: a serious contender. They've lost too much in the pipeline.

1945
01:33:16,840 --> 01:33:22,120
Speaker 3: Todavius White was a huge loss. You know, lose your

1946
01:33:22,200 --> 01:33:25,920
Speaker 3: number one wide receiver. I mean that's notable. I mean

1947
01:33:26,160 --> 01:33:29,120
Speaker 3: tough losses. Leonard Floyd had played well for you, he's

1948
01:33:29,320 --> 01:33:33,120
Speaker 3: no longer there. You lost a lot, and you're depending

1949
01:33:33,240 --> 01:33:36,200
Speaker 3: on Josh Allen to kind of put on the cape

1950
01:33:36,240 --> 01:33:39,439
Speaker 3: and save Everybody likes Superman. I don't know if he

1951
01:33:39,439 --> 01:33:41,360
Speaker 3: can keep doing it as he gets old and as

1952
01:33:41,600 --> 01:33:45,880
Speaker 3: the hits take a toll, you're reluctant to put yourself

1953
01:33:45,920 --> 01:33:48,160
Speaker 3: out there like that. We'll see how he plays it,

1954
01:33:48,200 --> 01:33:50,040
Speaker 3: if he still plays with a physical brand or that.

1955
01:33:50,479 --> 01:33:52,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think you hit it right on the head

1956
01:33:52,160 --> 01:33:54,240
Speaker 2: and zact like they didn't want to see Diggs go,

1957
01:33:54,360 --> 01:33:56,720
Speaker 2: but I think in the sense that he may have

1958
01:33:56,760 --> 01:33:59,360
Speaker 2: been a distraction. He didn't get along with Josh Allen.

1959
01:33:59,720 --> 01:34:01,560
Speaker 2: You know right now, they definitely want them out of

1960
01:34:01,600 --> 01:34:03,599
Speaker 2: the building. I mean, and they didn't get much for him,

1961
01:34:03,600 --> 01:34:06,559
Speaker 2: which tells me like, go, you know, get out of here.

1962
01:34:06,840 --> 01:34:12,320
Speaker 2: You're you're more problem than you are a plus, and

1963
01:34:12,680 --> 01:34:14,280
Speaker 2: we just don't want you here anymore. And they did,

1964
01:34:14,280 --> 01:34:16,200
Speaker 2: and they didn't get much for them. So we'll see

1965
01:34:16,200 --> 01:34:18,840
Speaker 2: what happens now in Buffalo. Not good, It really isn't good.

1966
01:34:19,040 --> 01:34:20,880
Speaker 2: And I'm sure the fans aren't happy about it either.

1967
01:34:21,200 --> 01:34:23,760
Speaker 2: You know, they probably can't fathom the idea that that

1968
01:34:23,800 --> 01:34:26,120
Speaker 2: team's going to be without him. And again, that team's

1969
01:34:26,160 --> 01:34:28,240
Speaker 2: not going to go in here next year. They could

1970
01:34:28,280 --> 01:34:30,120
Speaker 2: be in the situation where they don't make the playoffs

1971
01:34:30,120 --> 01:34:32,320
Speaker 2: next year. I really believe that, especially in that division,

1972
01:34:32,479 --> 01:34:34,040
Speaker 2: tough division, real tough.

1973
01:34:35,040 --> 01:34:38,320
Speaker 3: It's expected to be tougher. But it doesn't look good now.

1974
01:34:38,400 --> 01:34:40,280
Speaker 3: But here's the beauty of it. They have training camp

1975
01:34:40,400 --> 01:34:43,240
Speaker 3: to figure it out. They'll make some moves in the draft,

1976
01:34:43,320 --> 01:34:45,719
Speaker 3: they'll sign some street free agents to get it done,

1977
01:34:45,720 --> 01:34:48,680
Speaker 3: and if the quarterback is what we say he is,

1978
01:34:48,720 --> 01:34:50,120
Speaker 3: he'll find a way to lead the team to the

1979
01:34:50,120 --> 01:34:52,320
Speaker 3: winder circle and make them competitive for a playoff. Berth.

1980
01:34:52,720 --> 01:34:53,200
Speaker 3: There we go.

1981
01:34:53,240 --> 01:34:56,000
Speaker 2: He's Bucky Brooks. I'm Andy Ferman. You get us on Twitter,

1982
01:34:56,000 --> 01:34:58,280
Speaker 2: get us on ex that Bucket Brooks at Andy Ferman

1983

1984
01:35:01,000 --> 01:35:04,160
Speaker 2: That's eight seven seven nine nine sixty three sixty nine Buffalo?

1985
01:35:04,200 --> 01:35:06,120
Speaker 2: Are you listening? And of course the line up, the

1986
01:35:06,200 --> 01:35:12,120
Speaker 2: blame game in this hour drama. Drama must come in threes.

1987
01:35:12,600 --> 01:35:16,640
Speaker 2: We'll explain that next. What a mess. We'll get to

1988
01:35:16,720 --> 01:35:18,559
Speaker 2: that in just about a minute of these Bucket Brooks.

1989
01:35:18,600 --> 01:35:20,400
Speaker 2: He's not a mess. I'm Andy Furman. We are Fox

Speaker 2: Fox Sports Sunday and of course, we have a caller

1999
01:35:45,120 --> 01:35:47,599
Speaker 2: from Minneapolis. He wants to throw at the bucket Brooks.

2000
01:35:47,640 --> 01:35:49,599
Speaker 2: His name is Rick Rick. Here on Fox Sports Sunday.

2001
01:35:49,600 --> 01:35:52,280
Speaker 2: How are you Rick, I'm doing great. How are you fine?

2002
01:35:52,320 --> 01:35:52,640
Speaker 2: Thank you.

2003
01:35:54,120 --> 01:35:57,679
Speaker 11: I'm Triny Applis. I'm a Ranking fan. The Ranking trading

2004
01:35:57,760 --> 01:36:00,720
Speaker 11: him after he played great. He worked a buff ball.

2005
01:36:00,840 --> 01:36:02,040
Speaker 12: If not goot, he was very good.

2006
01:36:02,439 --> 01:36:03,160
Speaker 11: They created them.

2007
01:36:03,240 --> 01:36:04,200
Speaker 12: It's not a quits.

2008
01:36:04,280 --> 01:36:09,720
Speaker 11: In my opinion, I believe that he's petulant, selfish, distraction

2009
01:36:10,200 --> 01:36:12,160
Speaker 11: and probably pants on the team. So in my mind

2010
01:36:12,240 --> 01:36:14,240
Speaker 11: they're probably better off in the long run. But I

2011
01:36:14,320 --> 01:36:15,880
Speaker 11: just wanted to make that comic. That's I watched it

2012
01:36:16,040 --> 01:36:18,719
Speaker 11: for eight years. However it's been and that's that's my observation.

2013
01:36:19,320 --> 01:36:20,840
Speaker 2: I think the Bills felt the same way. What do

2014
01:36:20,880 --> 01:36:21,880
Speaker 2: you think, buck, don't you?

2015
01:36:23,400 --> 01:36:25,280
Speaker 3: Yeah? No, I mean, like, I mean, you can have

2016
01:36:25,520 --> 01:36:27,680
Speaker 3: that opinion. I think most people always come down with

2017
01:36:27,720 --> 01:36:31,240
Speaker 3: the quarterback. But I'll say this, all those quarterbacks have

2018
01:36:31,280 --> 01:36:33,920
Speaker 3: been elevated with Stephan Diggs being in the building. Kirk

2019
01:36:33,960 --> 01:36:37,120
Speaker 3: Cousins and Josh Allen benefited from Stefan Diggs. They did

2020
01:36:37,160 --> 01:36:41,040
Speaker 3: not elevate Stefan Diggs. Stefan Diggs elevated them. Now, his

2021
01:36:41,120 --> 01:36:43,800
Speaker 3: personality may be prickly, it may take some management in

2022
01:36:43,880 --> 01:36:46,320
Speaker 3: those things, but I can't say that those quarterbacks were

2023
01:36:46,320 --> 01:36:48,880
Speaker 3: better when he left. Kirk Cousins had to have Justin

2024
01:36:49,000 --> 01:36:53,000
Speaker 3: Jefferson come on board. And even then the Minnesota Vikings

2025
01:36:53,040 --> 01:36:56,640
Speaker 3: moved on from Kirk Cousins. Justin Jefferson express some frustrations

2026
01:36:56,680 --> 01:36:59,479
Speaker 3: with Kirk kirk Cousins when it comes to his ceiling

2027
01:36:59,520 --> 01:37:03,120
Speaker 3: and what he could do. We'll see, like here's the thing,

2028
01:37:03,200 --> 01:37:05,639
Speaker 3: Like it's a quarterback driven league. We make the game

2029
01:37:05,680 --> 01:37:08,519
Speaker 3: about the quarterbacks. Josh Allen will have an opportunity to

2030
01:37:08,560 --> 01:37:11,360
Speaker 3: show us how great he is without Stefan Diggs. Stefan

2031
01:37:11,439 --> 01:37:13,240
Speaker 3: Diggs will have an opportunity to team up with a

2032
01:37:13,280 --> 01:37:16,080
Speaker 3: young quarterback and CJ. Stroud where he can see if

2033
01:37:16,080 --> 01:37:18,280
Speaker 3: he can elevate him. At the end of the day,

2034
01:37:18,320 --> 01:37:21,320
Speaker 3: it'll come out and we'll see this is on Stefan Diggs.

2035
01:37:21,360 --> 01:37:24,320
Speaker 3: It's the third time, the second time he's had to move.

2036
01:37:24,400 --> 01:37:26,600
Speaker 3: It'd be a third team that he's played with. We

2037
01:37:26,640 --> 01:37:28,960
Speaker 3: will see if he is the cancer that he's being

2038
01:37:29,000 --> 01:37:29,800
Speaker 3: reported out to be.

2039
01:37:30,479 --> 01:37:32,960
Speaker 2: And I think to be a pro and I'm not

2040
01:37:33,000 --> 01:37:34,840
Speaker 2: stopping on anybody's toes by saying this, I think you

2041
01:37:34,880 --> 01:37:36,519
Speaker 2: have to be a little selfish. I think you have

2042
01:37:36,560 --> 01:37:39,720
Speaker 2: to be a little selfish, don't you think I mean well,

2043
01:37:39,720 --> 01:37:42,639
Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, wide receiver.

2044
01:37:42,680 --> 01:37:45,240
Speaker 3: If you there's not a good wide receiver that has

2045
01:37:45,320 --> 01:37:47,680
Speaker 3: not been selfish. You go back and you look at

2046
01:37:47,720 --> 01:37:50,240
Speaker 3: Jerry Rice, you look at Teo, you look at Randy Moss,

2047
01:37:50,360 --> 01:37:52,559
Speaker 3: you look at the great ones that we've seen. They've

2048
01:37:52,560 --> 01:37:55,240
Speaker 3: all been selfish. They've all demanded the ball. They all

2049
01:37:55,280 --> 01:37:57,800
Speaker 3: are high maintenance in that regard because wide receiver is

2050
01:37:57,800 --> 01:38:00,519
Speaker 3: a position that is dependent upon the play of the quarterback.

2051
01:38:00,760 --> 01:38:04,080
Speaker 3: Without the ball, the wide receiver can do little to

2052
01:38:04,240 --> 01:38:08,360
Speaker 3: impact the game. And so that selfishness is a lot

2053
01:38:08,400 --> 01:38:12,040
Speaker 3: of times not for individual glory. It's because I'm a

2054
01:38:12,120 --> 01:38:14,040
Speaker 3: good player. If you want me to have an impact

2055
01:38:14,040 --> 01:38:16,679
Speaker 3: on the game, I gotta have the ball in my hands, right,

2056
01:38:16,720 --> 01:38:18,519
Speaker 3: That's what it is. I mean, that's that's kind of

2057
01:38:18,560 --> 01:38:23,080
Speaker 3: part of Yeah. I mean, like all of them, the

2058
01:38:23,160 --> 01:38:26,160
Speaker 3: great ones are selfish in that because they feel like

2059
01:38:26,240 --> 01:38:28,000
Speaker 3: they're the ones that can make it happen. You're there

2060
01:38:28,000 --> 01:38:32,040
Speaker 3: in Cincinnati, Jamar Chase asked for the ball Jamar Chase

2061
01:38:32,040 --> 01:38:35,040
Speaker 3: talked about always being open this year, he sat in

2062
01:38:35,080 --> 01:38:38,000
Speaker 3: the locker room and talked about that every wide receiver

2063
01:38:38,120 --> 01:38:40,439
Speaker 3: has that. I mean, they all do that, like that's

2064
01:38:40,760 --> 01:38:43,120
Speaker 3: that's part of the deal. That's what you get when

2065
01:38:43,160 --> 01:38:44,360
Speaker 3: you get a wide receiver.

2066
01:38:44,560 --> 01:38:46,479
Speaker 2: No doubt about that. I got to make mention of

2067
01:38:46,520 --> 01:38:48,720
Speaker 2: this before we do anything else, because tonight's a very

2068
01:38:48,760 --> 01:38:50,720
Speaker 2: sad night. And what do I mean by that? One

2069
01:38:50,760 --> 01:38:52,800
Speaker 2: of my favorite TV shows is going off the air

2070
01:38:52,880 --> 01:38:56,439
Speaker 2: after like twenty five years. Curb your Enthusiasm with Larry David.

2071
01:38:56,439 --> 01:38:58,040
Speaker 2: Do you ever watch that show on HBO?

2072
01:38:58,120 --> 01:38:59,120
Speaker 3: I have here is funny?

2073
01:38:59,360 --> 01:39:02,840
Speaker 2: I love jab Yeah, right, I love that show. And

2074
01:39:02,960 --> 01:39:05,479
Speaker 2: I found this story that I had no idea that

2075
01:39:05,600 --> 01:39:08,840
Speaker 2: Larry David is a pretty big basketball fan and he

2076
01:39:09,040 --> 01:39:12,559
Speaker 2: was watching the games in Boston when Yukon was playing

2077
01:39:12,600 --> 01:39:16,200
Speaker 2: Illinois and the Illinois was down that thirty nothing run

2078
01:39:16,280 --> 01:39:20,000
Speaker 2: that Yukon did on them. Larry David's in the stands

2079
01:39:20,240 --> 01:39:22,280
Speaker 2: and he starts yelling I can just picture him doing this,

2080
01:39:22,479 --> 01:39:25,240
Speaker 2: you can stop coaching now the game is over. He's

2081
01:39:25,320 --> 01:39:27,880
Speaker 2: yelling this at Dan Hurley's just stopped coaching. And then

2082
01:39:27,920 --> 01:39:31,519
Speaker 2: when Larry David saw Donovan Klingon coming off the bench

2083
01:39:31,680 --> 01:39:34,360
Speaker 2: and about to check back into the game. He started

2084
01:39:34,479 --> 01:39:38,360
Speaker 2: yelling to Curly again, don't put him back in, don't

2085
01:39:38,360 --> 01:39:39,880
Speaker 2: put him back in. And that was the game that

2086
01:39:39,880 --> 01:39:43,200
Speaker 2: Connecticut won, seventy seven fifty two. So tonight's the last

2087
01:39:43,439 --> 01:39:46,280
Speaker 2: Kurby your enthusiasm. But Larry David, we wish you well.

2088
01:39:46,360 --> 01:39:48,720
Speaker 2: But I had no idea that you loved basketball. So

2089
01:39:48,800 --> 01:39:51,080
Speaker 2: now I love you even more. Now I love you

2090
01:39:51,120 --> 01:39:52,360
Speaker 2: even more. How do you like that?

2091
01:39:53,120 --> 01:39:56,559
Speaker 3: No, he's good. Look, Look, his stuff has been terrific

2092
01:39:56,640 --> 01:39:59,400
Speaker 3: for a long time. He's a great comedian. This show

2093
01:39:59,439 --> 01:40:02,400
Speaker 3: has been Look, this show has been epic for a

2094
01:40:02,439 --> 01:40:06,320
Speaker 3: long time, and he's given tremendous opportunities. JB Smooth on

01:40:06,360 --> 01:40:07,599
Speaker 3: the show has been outstanding.

2096
01:40:07,640 --> 01:40:09,400
Speaker 2: He's doing commercials now jab Smooth.

2097
01:40:10,000 --> 01:40:12,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it's just been it's been great, you know,

2098
01:40:13,000 --> 01:40:15,160
Speaker 3: and it would be missed, but the reruns are always

2099
01:40:15,200 --> 01:40:17,680
Speaker 3: there for our consumption, so right, can't be mad about that.

2100
01:40:17,960 --> 01:40:19,760
Speaker 2: There you go. And I talked about a mess, Okay,

2101
01:40:19,800 --> 01:40:21,680
Speaker 2: I'm talking about a mess here with the Dodgers. I

2102
01:40:21,680 --> 01:40:25,760
Speaker 2: mean with Shohea Tani. It just started out obviously an

2103
01:40:25,800 --> 01:40:28,360
Speaker 2: opening day we talked about the four point five million

2104
01:40:28,400 --> 01:40:30,840
Speaker 2: dollar gambling debts, and thanks to his interpreter said he

2105
01:40:30,840 --> 01:40:33,080
Speaker 2: didn't know about it. Now there's a home run situation

2106
01:40:33,360 --> 01:40:36,040
Speaker 2: that's going crazy. Now to talk about a homeown. You

2107
01:40:36,120 --> 01:40:38,280
Speaker 2: go to a baseball game and you catch a home run,

2108
01:40:38,320 --> 01:40:41,000
Speaker 2: The ball legally belongs to you, the fan who caught

2109
01:40:41,040 --> 01:40:43,320
Speaker 2: the ball. And then sometimes when you get the ball,

2110
01:40:43,520 --> 01:40:45,559
Speaker 2: if it's a big time home run like one hundredth

2111
01:40:45,640 --> 01:40:48,759
Speaker 2: or record setting one, you're scoring it from your seat

2112
01:40:49,040 --> 01:40:51,160
Speaker 2: and the team officials come to you, they speak with you,

2113
01:40:51,200 --> 01:40:52,720
Speaker 2: and they kind of work out a little bit of

2114
01:40:52,760 --> 01:40:54,760
Speaker 2: an agreement, like what are you gonna do. What's it

2115
01:40:54,760 --> 01:40:57,080
Speaker 2: gonna take for us to get this ball back from you?

2116
01:40:57,400 --> 01:41:00,400
Speaker 2: And sometimes, you know, if it's a kid, maybe you'll

2117
01:41:00,400 --> 01:41:04,719
Speaker 2: take a sign in jersey, a hat, a ticket, maybe cash.

2118
01:41:04,800 --> 01:41:07,759
Speaker 2: I don't know, but look it happened over here. Tani

2119
01:41:07,880 --> 01:41:10,559
Speaker 2: hit his first home run with the Dodgers the other day,

2120
01:41:10,920 --> 01:41:14,000
Speaker 2: and Tani hit the ball, it was caught by a

2121
01:41:14,040 --> 01:41:17,839
Speaker 2: woman who was a lifelong Dodgers fan named Amber Roman,

2122
01:41:18,320 --> 01:41:21,160
Speaker 2: and she and her husband were not very happy. While

2123
01:41:21,200 --> 01:41:23,920
Speaker 2: speaking the other day to the media about how they

2124
01:41:23,920 --> 01:41:26,160
Speaker 2: were treated by the Dodgers after the home run ball

2125
01:41:26,479 --> 01:41:29,000
Speaker 2: ended up in her hands. Okay, she said she was

2126
01:41:29,120 --> 01:41:31,960
Speaker 2: escorted from the stands. She was separated from her husband.

2127
01:41:32,000 --> 01:41:34,320
Speaker 2: I'm going to say this, she was separated from her

2128
01:41:34,360 --> 01:41:36,960
Speaker 2: husband and women, please don't take this the wrong way.

2129
01:41:36,960 --> 01:41:39,320
Speaker 2: But I think the Dodgers' staff did this because they

2130
01:41:39,320 --> 01:41:42,040
Speaker 2: figured the husband may have known how much that ball

2131
01:41:42,120 --> 01:41:44,120
Speaker 2: was really worth, and maybe she did not. Do you

2132
01:41:44,160 --> 01:41:46,000
Speaker 2: agree with that, buck? I think maybe that's why they

2133
01:41:46,000 --> 01:41:47,439
Speaker 2: separated her from her husband.

2134
01:41:48,439 --> 01:41:49,920
Speaker 3: I mean, that wouldn't have been cool if they were

2135
01:41:49,960 --> 01:41:52,439
Speaker 3: doing that, like, that's not I mean, it's a family.

2136
01:41:53,600 --> 01:41:57,680
Speaker 2: I think that's what I did. Yeah, because because they

2137
01:41:57,720 --> 01:41:59,639
Speaker 2: pressured her to giving up the ball for like next

2138
01:41:59,640 --> 01:42:02,400
Speaker 2: to nothing, she exchanged the ball for two get this

2139
01:42:02,720 --> 01:42:06,000
Speaker 2: two sign hats, a signed ball and a sign bat

2140
01:42:06,240 --> 01:42:09,120
Speaker 2: now at an auction house. Told the media the next day,

2141
01:42:09,160 --> 01:42:11,439
Speaker 2: I think it was in the athletics that the ball

2142
01:42:11,479 --> 01:42:13,920
Speaker 2: would be worth at least one hundred thousand dollars. And

2143
01:42:14,600 --> 01:42:17,760
Speaker 2: her husband said, and his name is Alex Valenzias said,

2144
01:42:18,040 --> 01:42:20,400
Speaker 2: they really took advantage of her. There was a bunch

2145
01:42:20,400 --> 01:42:22,439
Speaker 2: of security guards around her. They wouldn't let me talk

2146
01:42:22,479 --> 01:42:24,720
Speaker 2: to her or give her any advice. See, there was

2147
01:42:24,720 --> 01:42:26,360
Speaker 2: no way for us to leave. They had her pretty

2148
01:42:26,439 --> 01:42:29,920
Speaker 2: much cornered in the back. So it's not good. It's

2149
01:42:29,920 --> 01:42:31,599
Speaker 2: not a good look for the Dodge, not good look

2150
01:42:31,600 --> 01:42:35,679
Speaker 2: for Atani. Look this guy's making millions, right, Why wouldn't

2151
01:42:35,720 --> 01:42:37,719
Speaker 2: he just say, hey, you know what, give me the ball.

2152
01:42:37,840 --> 01:42:40,320
Speaker 2: I'll give you one hundred thousand dollars. What's one hundred

2153
01:42:40,360 --> 01:42:43,360
Speaker 2: thousand dollars to show tea Tani? Let him do it

2154
01:42:43,360 --> 01:42:45,719
Speaker 2: one hundred grand. It's not a big deal, right, spends

2155
01:42:45,760 --> 01:42:47,400
Speaker 2: more on lunch, I would think.

2156
01:42:48,560 --> 01:42:54,519
Speaker 3: I don't mean. Look, it is common. It happens. It's

2157
01:42:54,680 --> 01:42:57,439
Speaker 3: not supposed they happened like that. You would like to

2158
01:42:57,479 --> 01:43:01,599
Speaker 3: see the Dodgers do it. Make good with the lady

2159
01:43:01,600 --> 01:43:04,960
Speaker 3: to make sure she feels okay about everything. But you know,

2160
01:43:05,000 --> 01:43:06,720
Speaker 3: it's one of those things. But it's also within her

2161
01:43:06,800 --> 01:43:08,760
Speaker 3: right to hold onto that ball. She didn't have to

2162
01:43:08,760 --> 01:43:10,920
Speaker 3: give the ball up. She just said he stairfasting the

2163
01:43:10,960 --> 01:43:12,080
Speaker 3: demands not to give it up.

2164
01:43:13,200 --> 01:43:15,360
Speaker 2: I don't understand how the Dodge could do. This is

2165
01:43:15,479 --> 01:43:18,840
Speaker 2: really a pr blund And now the process have usually

2166
01:43:18,840 --> 01:43:20,679
Speaker 2: with this hat. I've seen it hap it several times,

2167
01:43:20,800 --> 01:43:22,439
Speaker 2: you know, in Cincinnati with the Reds. When there's a

2168
01:43:22,479 --> 01:43:24,800
Speaker 2: big time home run, the fan usually ends up meaning

2169
01:43:24,840 --> 01:43:27,360
Speaker 2: the player with the home run. But even that was

2170
01:43:27,400 --> 01:43:30,400
Speaker 2: a mess with the Dodgers. Roman and the husband Venezuela.

2171
01:43:30,600 --> 01:43:32,679
Speaker 2: They told the media that they never met a Tani,

2172
01:43:33,000 --> 01:43:37,040
Speaker 2: despite the claims that Tani said they did. This is

2173
01:43:37,080 --> 01:43:39,920
Speaker 2: a quote from Otani. I was able to talk to

2174
01:43:39,960 --> 01:43:41,840
Speaker 2: the fan and was able to get it back, meaning

2175
01:43:41,840 --> 01:43:44,360
Speaker 2: the ball. And this is what Tani said through the interpreter.

2176
01:43:44,479 --> 01:43:47,000
Speaker 2: You're obviously a new interpreter right now, obviously.

2177
01:43:47,120 --> 01:43:47,360
Speaker 1: Quote.

2178
01:43:47,400 --> 01:43:50,400
Speaker 2: He says, it's a very special ball, a lot of feelings.

2179
01:43:50,439 --> 01:43:52,280
Speaker 2: Taught it his first home one with the Dodgers. Are

2180
01:43:52,360 --> 01:43:55,639
Speaker 2: very grateful that it's back. Okay. And the Dodgers declined

2181
01:43:55,680 --> 01:43:59,200
Speaker 2: to address the Roman and Venezuela grievances beyond the statement

2182
01:43:59,280 --> 01:44:01,320
Speaker 2: they were the state saying they were open to a

2183
01:44:01,320 --> 01:44:04,320
Speaker 2: further conversation. I mean, come on, this is a PR

2184
01:44:04,400 --> 01:44:07,040
Speaker 2: blunder and it's not good. It puts a stain on

2185
01:44:07,080 --> 01:44:10,000
Speaker 2: the Dodgers' organization. And I've always felt really good about

2186
01:44:10,040 --> 01:44:12,479
Speaker 2: the Dodgers, even though they left my hometown, Brooklyn, and

2187
01:44:12,520 --> 01:44:14,920
Speaker 2: I wasn't happy about them leaving. But I'm always always

2188
01:44:15,000 --> 01:44:17,360
Speaker 2: rooting for the Dodgers, except when they played the Cincinnati Reds.

2189
01:44:17,640 --> 01:44:19,920
Speaker 2: How stupid can you be? They should have had this

2190
01:44:20,000 --> 01:44:22,760
Speaker 2: old plan when his first home run was hit. You

2191
01:44:22,800 --> 01:44:26,360
Speaker 2: give the person some money, some tickets, whatever it may be,

2192
01:44:26,880 --> 01:44:29,280
Speaker 2: an autograph, a picture of Otani, and away you go.

2193
01:44:29,520 --> 01:44:31,920
Speaker 2: And they messed this up big time. On top of

2194
01:44:31,960 --> 01:44:35,479
Speaker 2: the Otani gambling situation. Didn't start off great for the

2195
01:44:35,520 --> 01:44:36,240
Speaker 2: Dodgers this year.

2196
01:44:36,280 --> 01:44:41,160
Speaker 3: It really hasn't, no it certainly it hasn't started off great.

2197
01:44:41,240 --> 01:44:43,280
Speaker 3: And ev Reguard, I mean, he's playing pretty well, but

2198
01:44:43,320 --> 01:44:45,479
Speaker 3: it hasn't started off great. In terms of the PR stuff.

2199
01:44:45,640 --> 01:44:47,360
Speaker 3: We thought this would be a PR machine for the

2200
01:44:47,400 --> 01:44:51,040
Speaker 3: Dodgers a and ATM as we would saying that they

2201
01:44:51,080 --> 01:44:54,320
Speaker 3: would fill out stadiums all over, particularly home, and they

2202
01:44:54,320 --> 01:44:56,600
Speaker 3: make all kinds of money on their guard. They're just

2203
01:44:56,600 --> 01:44:58,200
Speaker 3: going to make sure they show the fans that they

2204
01:44:58,200 --> 01:45:01,240
Speaker 3: care about them. With their situation, just a simple thing.

2205
01:45:01,280 --> 01:45:02,880
Speaker 3: They can make good and they still have time to

2206
01:45:02,920 --> 01:45:04,640
Speaker 3: make it right. They just got to make sure that

2207
01:45:04,680 --> 01:45:06,320
Speaker 3: she feels a part of it. It was one hundred

2208
01:45:06,320 --> 01:45:08,799
Speaker 3: thousand dollars ball. People don't like feeling like they got duped.

2209
01:45:10,080 --> 01:45:11,040
Speaker 3: So that's some of it.

2210
01:45:11,560 --> 01:45:13,800
Speaker 2: There you go. The eye man was told, well, what

2211
01:45:13,880 --> 01:45:17,280
Speaker 2: was that now? Iyeman, you said something about this memorabilious.

2212
01:45:16,840 --> 01:45:19,080
Speaker 14: Yeah, I was just saying that apparently the stuff that

2213
01:45:19,120 --> 01:45:21,719
Speaker 14: she got in exchange for the ball that, like you said,

2214
01:45:21,720 --> 01:45:25,800
Speaker 14: would have been worth one hundred thousand dollars. Apparently collectively

2215
01:45:25,840 --> 01:45:27,880
Speaker 14: the stuff that she got in return was like one

2216
01:45:27,920 --> 01:45:28,639
Speaker 14: thousand dollars.

2217
01:45:28,880 --> 01:45:30,760
Speaker 2: You know, it was worth bup giz. Looked that up.

2218
01:45:30,800 --> 01:45:32,960
Speaker 2: It was worth bup giz, which is nothing. That's what

2219
01:45:33,000 --> 01:45:36,200
Speaker 2: it was worth, really, And I would have kept the ball.

2220
01:45:36,640 --> 01:45:39,360
Speaker 2: I mean that hounded. First of all, I always say this,

2221
01:45:39,439 --> 01:45:41,320
Speaker 2: and maybe I'm way off base on this one. I

2222
01:45:41,320 --> 01:45:43,040
Speaker 2: don't think it's such a big deal as first home

2223
01:45:43,120 --> 01:45:45,840
Speaker 2: run with the Dodgers. Do you big deal hit a

2224
01:45:45,840 --> 01:45:48,400
Speaker 2: home run? I mean maybe I'm nuts. You know what,

2225
01:45:49,080 --> 01:45:51,040
Speaker 2: certain things that everybody makes a big deal about it.

2226
01:45:51,080 --> 01:45:54,120
Speaker 2: I don't. Tomorrow's the eclipse, right, I don't see the

2227
01:45:54,160 --> 01:45:57,679
Speaker 2: big deal of four minutes of darkness. People are going nuts.

2228
01:45:57,760 --> 01:45:59,960
Speaker 2: It gets stuck every afternoon, it gets stuck every night.

2229
01:46:00,400 --> 01:46:03,439
Speaker 2: Clocks go over the sun every single day. Tomorrow's gonna

2230
01:46:03,439 --> 01:46:06,040
Speaker 2: be four minutes of darkness and everybody's freaking out. I

2231
01:46:06,040 --> 01:46:08,439
Speaker 2: had to go to Staples store yesterday to buy some stuff.

2232
01:46:08,520 --> 01:46:10,800

2235
01:46:17,720 --> 01:46:19,639
Speaker 2: for four minutes and then you won't use them again

2236
01:46:19,680 --> 01:46:22,320
Speaker 2: for another forty years. I don't understand it. But maybe

2237
01:46:22,360 --> 01:46:25,920
Speaker 2: that's me. Maybe there's something wrong with me. I don't know. Bucky,

2240
01:46:30,760 --> 01:46:32,439
Speaker 3: Like with the eclips, it's fine. There's a lot.

2255
01:47:18,080 --> 01:47:22,040

2265
01:47:53,320 --> 01:47:55,160
Speaker 10: the top half of that play in tournament, and with

2266
01:47:55,240 --> 01:47:58,080
Speaker 10: the way they've been playing as of late, have now

2271
01:48:10,680 --> 01:48:13,280
Speaker 10: to go to the Detroit Pistons, but Brooklyn does rally

2278
01:48:28,439 --> 01:48:31,920
Speaker 10: The NHL regular season has eleven days left on it.

Speaker 10: Boston overtime winners against Florida three to two, the Islanders

2280
01:48:34,800 --> 01:48:37,959
Speaker 10: shout out the Nashville Predators to nothing, and the Winnipeg

2281

Speaker 10: Jets winners at Minnesota four to two.

2282

2283
01:48:43,720 --> 01:48:46,360
Speaker 2: Have a wonderful day, all right, thanks for being with

2284
01:48:46,439 --> 01:48:48,599
Speaker 2: us now leaving the little guy in the dust that's

2285
01:48:48,600 --> 01:48:51,559
Speaker 2: coming up in a few minutes. And we have the

2286
01:48:51,600 --> 01:48:54,160
Speaker 2: blame game coming up in about five or six minutes

2287
01:48:54,200 --> 01:48:56,720
Speaker 2: from now, so we'll get into that. But just like

2288
01:48:56,760 --> 01:48:59,640
Speaker 2: in basketball, the successful game plan starts with the right players. Now.

2289
01:48:59,680 --> 01:49:02,679
Speaker 2: The tea team at Tractor Supply brings hustle and heart

2290
01:49:02,920 --> 01:49:05,640
Speaker 2: and that's what really sets them apart. So lace up

2291
01:49:05,640 --> 01:49:07,640
Speaker 2: your sneakers and make the winning play by heading off

2292
01:49:07,680 --> 01:49:11,360
Speaker 2: to your local tractor supply store today. Now we talk

2293
01:49:11,439 --> 01:49:14,880
Speaker 2: about this super league. It sounds pretty good, but is

2294
01:49:14,920 --> 01:49:17,479
Speaker 2: it really super? Now? What's the super league? The super

2295
01:49:17,560 --> 01:49:20,960
Speaker 2: league will do away with conferences, and we're talking about

2296
01:49:20,960 --> 01:49:23,759
Speaker 2: college football. They're gonna do away with the conferences. Instead,

2297
01:49:23,800 --> 01:49:29,080
Speaker 2: they could collect all seventy former Power Conference members including

2298
01:49:29,120 --> 01:49:33,080
Speaker 2: Notre Dame and SMU, into one big, top tier league.

2299
01:49:33,479 --> 01:49:37,120
Speaker 2: The other sixty plus members of FBS will join a second,

2300
01:49:37,160 --> 01:49:39,960
Speaker 2: lower tier league. And this is pretty interesting. The second

2301
01:49:40,000 --> 01:49:42,760
Speaker 2: tier teams would have a chance to earn promotion to

2302
01:49:42,840 --> 01:49:45,840
Speaker 2: the top tier, kind of like the European soccer deal.

2303
01:49:46,360 --> 01:49:48,760
Speaker 2: So I kind of like that. It's not bid to

2304
01:49:48,880 --> 01:49:51,320
Speaker 2: throw everybody out there and you know, winner take all.

2305
01:49:51,400 --> 01:49:53,479
Speaker 2: What do you think I like this super league? I do.

2306
01:49:54,800 --> 01:49:58,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, a little relegation, that's what you're talking about. I

2307
01:49:58,360 --> 01:50:01,519
Speaker 3: will say that it College football is going to have

2308
01:50:01,600 --> 01:50:04,880
Speaker 3: to go to something like this because everyone won't be

2309
01:50:04,960 --> 01:50:08,360
Speaker 3: able to pay up and compete in the system the

2310
01:50:08,400 --> 01:50:13,200
Speaker 3: way is presently constructed. It's just too prohibitive for the

2311
01:50:13,400 --> 01:50:15,479
Speaker 3: have nots to be able to fork up the money

2312
01:50:15,520 --> 01:50:18,799
Speaker 3: to get some of the top players. This gives everyone

2313
01:50:18,840 --> 01:50:21,920
Speaker 3: an opportunity to be able to do to kind of

2314
01:50:21,920 --> 01:50:24,120
Speaker 3: get in the mix. It will make it competitive, but

2315
01:50:24,160 --> 01:50:26,000
Speaker 3: it also will make it more like the league. It'll

2316
01:50:26,040 --> 01:50:28,479
Speaker 3: be the minor leagues when you start doing some of this.

2317
01:50:28,640 --> 01:50:32,360
Speaker 3: But I don't know if there's going to be a choice.

2318
01:50:32,720 --> 01:50:37,080
Speaker 3: Once the anti trust stuff claims and stuff hit, it's

2319
01:50:37,080 --> 01:50:39,280
Speaker 3: gonna be an issue. That's gonna be an issue going forward.

2320
01:50:40,040 --> 01:50:42,320
Speaker 2: Well, I tell you right now, when this happens, or

2321
01:50:42,320 --> 01:50:44,600
Speaker 2: should it happen, the players will have a union. Like

2322
01:50:44,600 --> 01:50:46,519
Speaker 2: the basketball players at darbinth they're trying to get they'll

2323
01:50:46,560 --> 01:50:48,519
Speaker 2: have a union or this time, and we talked about

2324
01:50:48,520 --> 01:50:50,240
Speaker 2: this early on the Northwestern trying to do it and

2325
01:50:50,280 --> 01:50:52,400
Speaker 2: they couldn't get it done. It's gonna happen. They're gonna

2326
01:50:52,439 --> 01:50:55,000
Speaker 2: have a union and they'll have a collective bargaining agreement

2327
01:50:55,360 --> 01:50:58,880
Speaker 2: and nil money. I forget about those hangouts because there'll

2328
01:50:58,920 --> 01:51:01,960
Speaker 2: be incoming labor lawsuits. But they'll get paid. It'll be

2329
01:51:02,040 --> 01:51:04,280
Speaker 2: minor leagues, that's what it is. I mean, maybe forget

2330
01:51:04,280 --> 01:51:06,080
Speaker 2: about going to school. Maybe you don't have to go

2331
01:51:06,120 --> 01:51:08,240
Speaker 2: to school anymore. I mean, just go to the school

2332
01:51:08,240 --> 01:51:11,639
Speaker 2: the school pays you to represent the school in football

2333
01:51:11,880 --> 01:51:14,000
Speaker 2: and don't go to class. Maybe that's what it's gonna be.

2334
01:51:14,080 --> 01:51:14,759
Speaker 2: What do you think?

2335
01:51:15,439 --> 01:51:18,120
Speaker 3: No, I don't like that. I mean some players are

2336
01:51:18,160 --> 01:51:21,639
Speaker 3: like that. But once again I say this, only one

2337
01:51:21,640 --> 01:51:23,320
Speaker 3: percent of those guys are going to go to the pro.

2338
01:51:23,400 --> 01:51:24,960
Speaker 3: So what are they gonna do the rest of their lives?

2339
01:51:25,040 --> 01:51:27,920
Speaker 3: I mean it's great that we live off of them, and.

2340
01:51:27,479 --> 01:51:30,960
Speaker 2: We need people at McDonald's. We need people to work

2341
01:51:30,960 --> 01:51:35,960
Speaker 2: in McDonald the footpam Burgers, we do, we need uber drivers.

2342
01:51:36,600 --> 01:51:39,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, I would rather see these people take advantage of

2343
01:51:39,240 --> 01:51:42,479
Speaker 3: the opportunities. I mean, you talk about great institutions on

2344
01:51:42,520 --> 01:51:44,760
Speaker 3: an opportunity to get a good education, and yes they

2345
01:51:44,800 --> 01:51:47,960
Speaker 3: should be compensated, but they should also have an opportunity

2346
01:51:48,040 --> 01:51:51,639
Speaker 3: to you know, set themselves up for life after, because

2347
01:51:51,640 --> 01:51:53,599
Speaker 3: football is gonna be a four year deal. Even if

2348
01:51:53,640 --> 01:51:55,680
Speaker 3: you get a chance to play in the league, you

2349
01:51:55,720 --> 01:51:58,280
Speaker 3: still got to spend the rest of your life kind

2350
01:51:58,280 --> 01:52:00,520
Speaker 3: of working and doing something. I want to bective.

2351
01:52:01,360 --> 01:52:03,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, and you know what, it makes me feel bad

2352
01:52:03,280 --> 01:52:06,080
Speaker 2: because again I never played the game, But if I

2353
01:52:06,080 --> 01:52:08,200
Speaker 2: had it to do all over again, I think I might. Oh,

2354
01:52:08,200 --> 01:52:10,200
Speaker 2: I was afraid. I mean, do you ever meet anybody

2355
01:52:10,200 --> 01:52:13,000
Speaker 2: who was afraid to play? Like you know, classmates of

2356
01:52:13,080 --> 01:52:14,840
Speaker 2: yours that go with you see you know, Bucky, I

2357
01:52:14,880 --> 01:52:17,040
Speaker 2: really I really admire you because you went out there

2358
01:52:17,080 --> 01:52:19,040
Speaker 2: and you get hit every day and you go to

2359
01:52:19,120 --> 01:52:21,840
Speaker 2: practice and you tackle and you get hurt, and I

2360
01:52:21,880 --> 01:52:23,720
Speaker 2: would love to do it, but I'm afraid, and I

2361
01:52:23,840 --> 01:52:26,599
Speaker 2: just I don't know. I just look at the money

2362
01:52:26,640 --> 01:52:29,720
Speaker 2: that's being made, but the potential injury factor, I mean

2363
01:52:29,960 --> 01:52:32,080
Speaker 2: it's there has to be someone that you play with

2364
01:52:32,160 --> 01:52:35,360
Speaker 2: college or pro that was afraid but they still played.

2365
01:52:36,479 --> 01:52:39,840
Speaker 3: Everybody has some fear going in like don't don't be

2366
01:52:39,960 --> 01:52:43,840
Speaker 3: tricked or fool. Everybody has some worry and some doubt.

2367
01:52:44,280 --> 01:52:47,719
Speaker 3: But that's what takes courage. Like courage is being able

2368
01:52:47,760 --> 01:52:50,400
Speaker 3: to admit that there's a little fear, there's a little

2369
01:52:50,400 --> 01:52:54,400
Speaker 3: self doubt, there's a little anxiety that comes along with

2370
01:52:54,439 --> 01:52:57,920
Speaker 3: stepping into the arena, but you still go anyway. The

2371
01:52:57,960 --> 01:53:02,320
Speaker 3: ones who troubled are the ones who never put themselves

2372
01:53:02,320 --> 01:53:05,240
Speaker 3: out there. But there's not a player that steps onto

2373
01:53:05,280 --> 01:53:07,400
Speaker 3: the field each and every weekend that doesn't have a

2374
01:53:07,439 --> 01:53:10,719
Speaker 3: little fear, a little self doubt, a little uneasiness about

2375
01:53:10,720 --> 01:53:12,680
Speaker 3: the game in which they play, but you love the

2376
01:53:12,680 --> 01:53:14,880
Speaker 3: game so much that you do it. Now, some people

2377
01:53:14,920 --> 01:53:16,639
Speaker 3: can work around and say, hey, I'm just gonna play

2378
01:53:16,640 --> 01:53:18,840
Speaker 3: because of the money, but that's fleeting. You can't do

2379
01:53:18,880 --> 01:53:21,160
Speaker 3: that for so long. The game is too hard. It

2380
01:53:21,200 --> 01:53:24,000
Speaker 3: demands too much for you to do that without like

2381
01:53:24,080 --> 01:53:26,000
Speaker 3: being all the way into it. MM.

2382
01:53:26,560 --> 01:53:29,120
Speaker 2: I'm glad to hear this, I really am. Because as

2383
01:53:29,120 --> 01:53:32,120
Speaker 2: far as like courage, I probably need to go see

2384
01:53:32,120 --> 01:53:34,200
Speaker 2: the Wizard of Oz to get courage. That's what I

2385
01:53:34,240 --> 01:53:36,759
Speaker 2: need to do. I'll see the Wizard like I mean again,

2386
01:53:36,840 --> 01:53:39,960
Speaker 2: I look at it again. The reason why I'm saying

2387
01:53:40,000 --> 01:53:42,000
Speaker 2: this because I'm looking at the amount of money they're making,

2388
01:53:42,360 --> 01:53:44,960
Speaker 2: and that's not the reason to play the game. I mean,

2389
01:53:45,120 --> 01:53:49,360
Speaker 2: it's a great secondary benefit for playing the game, but

2390
01:53:49,360 --> 01:53:50,840
Speaker 2: that's not the reason why you play the game for

2391
01:53:50,880 --> 01:53:53,000
Speaker 2: the money. Especially in the high school. If you're not

2392
01:53:53,080 --> 01:53:55,160
Speaker 2: playing for money, well, maybe you're playing for the hope

2393
01:53:55,160 --> 01:53:57,599
Speaker 2: that one day you will make the money in the NFL.

2394
01:53:57,680 --> 01:54:00,000
Speaker 2: But most of those kids that never make the NFL,

2395
01:54:00,160 --> 01:54:02,080
Speaker 2: you know, if they played Division one college, they're lucky.

2396
01:54:02,360 --> 01:54:06,600
Speaker 2: So money is secondary, it really is. So maybe I

2397
01:54:06,640 --> 01:54:08,320
Speaker 2: still wouldn't do it. I don't know. But did you

2398
01:54:08,320 --> 01:54:09,280
Speaker 2: hear what Fox is doing?

2399
01:54:09,320 --> 01:54:09,559
Speaker 3: Though?

2400
01:54:09,920 --> 01:54:13,360
Speaker 2: Fox is launching now a new postseason college basketball tournament,

2401
01:54:13,439 --> 01:54:19,479
Speaker 2: the College Basketball Crown, with AEG worldwide. Sixteen teams will

2402
01:54:19,520 --> 01:54:23,080
Speaker 2: compete at the MGM Grand Garden Arena and T Mobile

2403
01:54:23,120 --> 01:54:27,879
Speaker 2: Arena in Vegas Monday, March thirty one to Sunday, April sixth,

2404
01:54:28,280 --> 01:54:31,599
Speaker 2: twenty twenty five, and games will be on Fox and

2405
01:54:31,680 --> 01:54:34,320
Speaker 2: Fox Sports One. I guess they'll probably be on Fox

2406
01:54:34,320 --> 01:54:37,200
Speaker 2: Sports Radio as well. We'll see. But what this tournament

2407
01:54:37,240 --> 01:54:39,240
Speaker 2: is going to do is put the axe and bury

2408
01:54:39,520 --> 01:54:42,600
Speaker 2: the nit. It's all over for the nit. But that's good.

2409
01:54:42,640 --> 01:54:46,600
Speaker 2: Fox is back in the business basketball basketball business. Nice,

2410
01:54:46,840 --> 01:54:49,360
Speaker 2: there we go. He's Bucket Brooks. I'm Andy Firman. This

2411
01:54:49,440 --> 01:54:52,040
Speaker 2: is Fox Sports Sunday on Fox Sports. Ready, you know

2412
01:54:52,120 --> 01:54:56,880
Speaker 2: what the blame game is next? The playing game is

2413
01:54:56,960 --> 01:54:59,160
Speaker 2: right around the corner. It's about twelve minutes now before

2414
01:54:59,160 --> 01:55:01,320
Speaker 2: the top of the hour. He is Bucky Brooks. I'm

2415
01:55:01,360 --> 01:55:04,320
Speaker 2: Andy Furman, and we're live from the Tyraq dot com studios.

2416
01:55:04,560 --> 01:55:07,240
Speaker 2: And speaking of Kevin Wyers, the Sports Updates gonna thank

2417
01:55:07,240 --> 01:55:09,720
Speaker 2: you for doing a great job today. Mark Ramsey at

2418
01:55:09,760 --> 01:55:12,280
Speaker 2: the controls. We love him, and of course the eyemn,

2419
01:55:12,520 --> 01:55:15,120
Speaker 2: the eyemn, and we love the Iye man here he

2420
01:55:15,240 --> 01:55:18,640
Speaker 2: is the eye man. But top of the hour, about

2421
01:55:18,680 --> 01:55:22,400
Speaker 2: ten twelve minutes away from now, Brian know, Jeff Schwartz,

2422
01:55:22,440 --> 01:55:25,120
Speaker 2: my two buddies and Bill Krakelenberger stay with them. Top

2423
01:55:25,120 --> 01:55:26,920
Speaker 2: of the hour. That would be nine am in the

2424
01:55:26,920 --> 01:55:29,360
Speaker 2: East Coast. But right now, it's the blame game. Let's

2425
01:55:29,360 --> 01:55:29,680
Speaker 2: do it.

2426
01:55:29,800 --> 01:55:33,760
Speaker 1: You ruin me? It's all your fault. No, it's your fault.

2427
01:55:33,960 --> 01:55:35,280
Speaker 6: What's is all your fault?

2428
01:55:35,440 --> 01:55:36,120
Speaker 7: It's your fault.

2429
01:55:38,800 --> 01:55:40,240
Speaker 2: Maybe it's everyone's fault.

2430
01:55:40,760 --> 01:55:43,320
Speaker 1: Who knows the liar? That's why there's.

2431
01:55:43,160 --> 01:55:44,600
Speaker 2: The blame game, the blame game.

2432
01:55:44,680 --> 01:55:45,600
Speaker 7: Let's figure out.

2433
01:55:45,520 --> 01:55:46,240
Speaker 3: Who to blame.

2434
01:55:47,360 --> 01:55:50,440
Speaker 14: Blame game, right, the blame game. So first off, we're

2435
01:55:50,440 --> 01:55:53,440
Speaker 14: starting with this. There has been talk that NC State

2436
01:55:53,520 --> 01:55:57,680
Speaker 14: basketball player DJ Burns could get workouts with NFL teams

2437
01:55:57,680 --> 01:55:59,560
Speaker 14: at NC State's pro day next week.

2438
01:55:59,640 --> 01:56:00,640
Speaker 6: Bucky, who do you blame?

2439
01:56:02,760 --> 01:56:06,000
Speaker 3: I blame nflcalfis because we're always looking to find a

2440
01:56:06,040 --> 01:56:08,880
Speaker 3: diamond in the rough. When you see DJ Burns move around,

2441
01:56:08,920 --> 01:56:11,760
Speaker 3: you see his footwork, with that size, you can envision

2442
01:56:11,840 --> 01:56:15,320
Speaker 3: him being maybe an offensive tackle at the next level.

2443
01:56:15,520 --> 01:56:18,120
Speaker 3: That's why you kick the tires on him, because maybe

2444
01:56:18,120 --> 01:56:20,280
Speaker 3: he's not an NBA player, but you certainly would be

2445
01:56:20,320 --> 01:56:22,760
Speaker 3: intrigued if he's available to come and play in the NFL.

2446
01:56:23,040 --> 01:56:25,440
Speaker 2: Andy, you know what, they're making a mistake. I don't

2447
01:56:25,440 --> 01:56:27,440
Speaker 2: think he's gonna play in the NBA. He's got the size,

2448
01:56:27,480 --> 01:56:28,960
Speaker 2: he's got the hype, and I don't think he's got

2449
01:56:29,120 --> 01:56:32,120
Speaker 2: the mobility to play in the NBA. Maybe I'm mistaken football.

2450
01:56:32,200 --> 01:56:33,800
Speaker 2: You know, he never played the game. I don't think

2451
01:56:33,960 --> 01:56:36,640
Speaker 2: so that's a mistake. He should be a boxer. He's big.

2452
01:56:36,720 --> 01:56:38,400
Speaker 2: Who'd want to go in the ring with that guy?

2453
01:56:38,640 --> 01:56:42,040
Speaker 2: That's the mistake they're making. Boxing is his future. DJ

2454
01:56:42,280 --> 01:56:43,160
Speaker 2: boxing boxing.

2455
01:56:44,000 --> 01:56:47,040
Speaker 14: The three point line in the NCAA attorney was the

2456
01:56:47,120 --> 01:56:50,360
Speaker 14: wrong distance last week in Portland, Andy, Who do you blame?

2457
01:56:50,720 --> 01:56:52,600
Speaker 2: Some moron will put the painting down on the on

2458
01:56:52,680 --> 01:56:55,080
Speaker 2: the on the on the gymnasium floor. But look, I mean,

2459
01:56:55,120 --> 01:56:57,160
Speaker 2: how stupid can you be? Don't don't they give you

2460
01:56:57,240 --> 01:57:00,720
Speaker 2: like a basic a guide. I mean to give you

2461
01:57:00,760 --> 01:57:02,480
Speaker 2: a guideline. They tell you what to do, and they

2462
01:57:02,480 --> 01:57:05,160
Speaker 2: give you the imprint. You just paste it down there

2463
01:57:05,280 --> 01:57:08,040
Speaker 2: and paint over to spray over it. How stupid can

2464
01:57:08,080 --> 01:57:10,960
Speaker 2: you be? Really? I mean I want to see the guy.

2465
01:57:11,080 --> 01:57:13,040
Speaker 2: This is what they should do. They should have like

2466
01:57:13,120 --> 01:57:15,720
Speaker 2: pictures of stupid people, really, and they should have the

2467
01:57:15,720 --> 01:57:18,440
Speaker 2: people that think mistakes in life and post them up there.

2468
01:57:18,520 --> 01:57:20,840
Speaker 2: That's what social media should be for the guy who

2469
01:57:20,880 --> 01:57:23,480
Speaker 2: made this mistake. His pictures should be all over the place.

2470
01:57:23,680 --> 01:57:26,760
Speaker 2: Not guys that rob postf not guys that rob banks.

2471
01:57:26,840 --> 01:57:28,640
Speaker 2: I don't care who robs a bank. I don't want

2472
01:57:28,640 --> 01:57:31,320
Speaker 2: his picture. I want stupid people put him up there.

2473
01:57:31,960 --> 01:57:32,960
Speaker 6: Bucky, you agree with that?

2474
01:57:33,960 --> 01:57:36,640
Speaker 3: I mean that's a lot. I believe that the checks

2475
01:57:36,640 --> 01:57:39,760
Speaker 3: and balances filled them, quality control failed them. That should

2476
01:57:39,800 --> 01:57:42,280
Speaker 3: be something that never happens in the game. You always

2477
01:57:42,400 --> 01:57:44,760
Speaker 3: measure the height of the goal, You always measured the distances,

2478
01:57:44,800 --> 01:57:46,920
Speaker 3: make sure that the painting is right. The fact that

2479
01:57:46,960 --> 01:57:50,600
Speaker 3: you have wopsided three point lines, it's an egregious era.

2480
01:57:50,800 --> 01:57:54,640
Speaker 3: Everyone in the building should be over accountable for all right.

2481
01:57:54,960 --> 01:57:57,960
Speaker 14: The New York Rangers and New Jersey Devils opened to

2482
01:57:58,000 --> 01:58:00,320
Speaker 14: their game the other night with a five five I'm

2483
01:58:00,360 --> 01:58:03,360
Speaker 14: brawl the second the puck dropped Andy, who do you blame?

2484
01:58:03,840 --> 01:58:05,760
Speaker 2: I blame the National Hockey League because I think right

2485
01:58:05,760 --> 01:58:07,480
Speaker 2: now the playoffs are right around the corner, they need

2486
01:58:07,520 --> 01:58:09,160
Speaker 2: some hype. I think it's part of the game. If

2487
01:58:09,200 --> 01:58:11,960
Speaker 2: you go on social media, you could buy tape. You

2488
01:58:12,000 --> 01:58:14,760
Speaker 2: could buy tape of hockey fights. No other sport has that.

2489
01:58:15,000 --> 01:58:17,360
Speaker 2: I think hockey thrives on that. The fans love it.

2490
01:58:17,520 --> 01:58:19,200
Speaker 2: But they have a fight at the start of the game.

2491
01:58:19,520 --> 01:58:22,520
Speaker 2: It's ridiculous. There's no reason to fight in the beginning there, really,

2492
01:58:22,600 --> 01:58:24,600
Speaker 2: is it. I mean, unless some guy owed some other

2493
01:58:24,640 --> 01:58:27,040
Speaker 2: guy money, or some guy was with some other guy's wife.

2494
01:58:27,120 --> 01:58:29,160
Speaker 2: That's the only reason you could fight. And five guys

2495
01:58:29,160 --> 01:58:31,480
Speaker 2: aren't gonna fight if two guys are involved. So the

2496
01:58:31,680 --> 01:58:34,000
Speaker 2: National Hockey League did it because they need the hype.

2497
01:58:34,480 --> 01:58:36,800
Speaker 6: Bucky, there was some carryover.

2498
01:58:37,480 --> 01:58:39,080
Speaker 3: The main guy involved had been in a bunch of

2499
01:58:39,120 --> 01:58:41,360
Speaker 3: series of fights, and so they just let this one go.

2500
01:58:41,680 --> 01:58:43,760
Speaker 3: Dropped the gloves at the beginning, got to it, got

2501
01:58:43,800 --> 01:58:46,840
Speaker 3: to that action. I appreciate it. Hockey is the one

2502
01:58:46,840 --> 01:58:48,520
Speaker 3: sport where they let you kind of get to it.

2503
01:58:48,920 --> 01:58:52,520
Speaker 3: I like the goons, and so I'm partial to the goons. Look,

2504
01:58:52,720 --> 01:58:55,240
Speaker 3: we can blame anybody. I blame Gary Bettman because they

2505
01:58:55,240 --> 01:58:56,840
Speaker 3: should do more of it. So I'm gona blame him

2506
01:58:56,880 --> 01:58:58,320
Speaker 3: for not doing it more. They should do it more.

2507
01:58:58,320 --> 01:58:59,080
Speaker 3: I thought it was exciting.

2508

2515

2516
01:59:15,440 --> 01:59:17,480

01:59:18,200 --> 01:59:20,240
Speaker 2: He could, he could become a goon. You think.

2518

Speaker 3: I don't know. I don't know. You got to be

2519
01:59:23,200 --> 01:59:25,320

2520
01:59:25,560 --> 01:59:26,840
Speaker 2: Right, You're right, all right.

2521
01:59:27,320 --> 01:59:31,120
Speaker 14: New York State's Transit agency wanted to impose a seven

2522
01:59:31,200 --> 01:59:35,120
Speaker 14: hundred and fifty thousand dollars fee on the NYC Marathon

2523
01:59:35,240 --> 01:59:38,720
Speaker 14: for using the Verizono Narrows Bridge as runners crossed from

2524
01:59:38,720 --> 01:59:41,240
Speaker 14: Staten Island to Brooklyn. So they wanted to charge the

2525
01:59:41,320 --> 01:59:43,720
Speaker 14: runners a toll for money lost while the bridge was

2526
01:59:43,760 --> 01:59:44,280
Speaker 14: not in use.

2527
01:59:44,360 --> 01:59:45,240
Speaker 6: Andy, who do you blame?

2528
01:59:45,400 --> 01:59:48,000
Speaker 2: You talk about people that are tied. We talked earlier

2529
01:59:48,000 --> 01:59:51,200
Speaker 2: today about owners wanted the public to pay for their stadiums.

2530
01:59:51,320 --> 01:59:54,320
Speaker 2: Oh my god, you want that to pay the runners?

2531
01:59:54,520 --> 01:59:57,000
Speaker 2: First of all, you're running in, Jim, Jim Schwartz. There's

2532
01:59:57,000 --> 01:59:58,920
Speaker 2: no pockets. We ain't gonna get the change to pay

2533
01:59:58,920 --> 02:00:01,200
Speaker 2: for the toll. I don't get it, you know. Now,

2534
02:00:01,560 --> 02:00:04,000
Speaker 2: I think they're doing a deal where there's a double

2535
02:00:04,040 --> 02:00:06,080
Speaker 2: deck of Bridge of Arizona. So maybe one deck will

2536
02:00:06,080 --> 02:00:08,560
Speaker 2: be for runners and one for the cars. Are you
