00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:25,679
Speaker 1: Maybe his dad's other than hitting him. Yeah, was the

29
00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:26,920
Speaker 1: best pitcher out there today.

30
00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:30,040
Speaker 3: Dad, we gotta throw suspicion off. Just hit me once

31
00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:30,679
Speaker 3: or twice.

32
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:33,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, I got it, but not really hard, just like

33
00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:35,319
Speaker 1: you know, just make it look good.

34
00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:36,360
Speaker 4: Okay, just make it look good.

35
00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:38,560
Speaker 3: Now you go back into the odds.

36
00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:41,839
Speaker 1: Raleigh was the favorite at plus two ninety five, James

37
00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:44,560
Speaker 1: winning the most money bet on him. He was nearly

38
00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:47,840
Speaker 1: five to one. O'Neil Cruz was the second favorite plus

39
00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:49,680
Speaker 1: three thirty. He gave you a thrill with that five

40
00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:52,880
Speaker 1: hundred and thirteen foot home run. Got to the semi

41
00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:57,760
Speaker 1: long shot was actually Junior Commonero, who was a long

42
00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:00,240
Speaker 1: had longer odds than he asked.

43
00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:04,480
Speaker 3: Chisholm, who gave us three thirty eight swings. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that.

44
00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:05,960
Speaker 1: Was Uh you look at the home runs in the

45
00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:09,280
Speaker 1: first round sixteen seventeen, twenty one, twenty one, twenty three,

46
00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:13,519
Speaker 1: seventeen fifteen, Oh Jazz, Chisholm, Come on, man, come on,

47
00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:15,720
Speaker 1: and I mean he had to be rooting for Like,

48
00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:18,760
Speaker 1: there's three guys that were making less money playing this

49
00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:21,000
Speaker 1: year than they would have gotten as their prize, right,

50
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:23,960
Speaker 1: because he gets the cool looking chain. Uh huh, she

51
00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:27,519
Speaker 1: gets the championship belt. Yeah, not mustard colored, but I

52
00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:33,120
Speaker 1: guess that's good. Uh No, actual mustard was used in

53
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:35,480
Speaker 1: the product. And then he gets a million dollar prize,

54
00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:38,920
Speaker 1: a million dollar prize again being a larger than the

55
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:42,680
Speaker 1: salaries and three of the other participants in these year events.

56
00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:44,760
Speaker 1: My dad is real upset too, because chishom is one

57
00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:47,280
Speaker 1: of his favorite, like his three favorite Yankees or Judge

58
00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:48,480
Speaker 1: and Chisholm and Coal.

59
00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:51,560
Speaker 3: And so he's like when Judge, yeahbcam got to see you.

60
00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:54,079
Speaker 1: I bet you this kid, my dad, I bet you

61
00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:56,480
Speaker 1: this kid wows everybody. And I'm like, oh, so, I

62
00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:59,359
Speaker 1: tell you. I text him about a half hour ago. Hey,

63
00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:02,120
Speaker 1: my nuts down? How did Je just doing a home

64
00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:04,519
Speaker 1: run derby? And I have not gotten a response yet.

65
00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:07,520
Speaker 3: No, I wouldn't suspect you, won't. I bet you this Kase.

66
00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:10,280
Speaker 1: He loves Jack ever since they got him. It's like,

67
00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:12,680
Speaker 1: I'm like, Dad, you talk about him like he's Mantle

68
00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:14,600
Speaker 1: and Mariss but those are his three guys. But he

69
00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:17,880
Speaker 1: got a lot of swings in sure, sure, yeah, oh yeah.

70
00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:21,520
Speaker 1: Volume the anticipation though, that's part of it. When we

71
00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:23,880
Speaker 1: talk about the home run derby, right, did he get

72
00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:24,200
Speaker 1: it all?

73
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:27,639
Speaker 3: No, he got none of it. Volume, sweat he was swinging.

74
00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:31,200
Speaker 1: If you run, if you take all my outs and

75
00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:34,320
Speaker 1: put them, you know, back to back with each other,

76
00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:36,160
Speaker 1: like would they count for home runs? Like if I

77
00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:38,960
Speaker 1: had two hundred and fifty pop outs? Could could you

78
00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:40,560
Speaker 1: put him together? Give me a home run down the line?

79
00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:42,040
Speaker 3: Can that work? I gotta get that.

80
00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:44,000
Speaker 1: I mean, he's got seventeen home runs on the year,

81
00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:46,520
Speaker 1: so it's as solid amount.

82
00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:50,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, but not exactly. No one has a home run. God,

83
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:51,560
Speaker 3: I gotta I.

84
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:53,960
Speaker 1: Gotta think this is probably and I mean, as I

85
00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:56,320
Speaker 1: know it's a hot take, this is probably his last

86
00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:58,440
Speaker 1: home run. You think I don't know that he's going

87
00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:00,440
Speaker 1: to be back in after Well you might really trained

88
00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:01,880
Speaker 1: for it. He might just decide to help with it.

89
00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:04,360
Speaker 1: I'm no longer going to try to hit for any

90
00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:06,680
Speaker 1: home runs or nothing, home runs or nothing. That's what

91
00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:08,720
Speaker 1: I'm doing home. Man, he's only a two fifty hitter,

92
00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:10,960
Speaker 1: so he's not doing the other part too much either.

93
00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:13,400
Speaker 3: But all of that to say, he gave it the

94
00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:16,040
Speaker 3: old college try sure, sure showed up?

95
00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:19,200
Speaker 1: Yeah again home runs in the first round sixteen seventeen,

96
00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:23,719
Speaker 1: twenty one, twenty one, twenty three, seventeen fifteen. It's like

97
00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:26,240
Speaker 1: a bad first pitch. You're always going to be remembered

98
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:26,520
Speaker 1: for this.

99
00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:29,880
Speaker 3: That's true. So that sounds true. It's the first all right, okay,

100
00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:33,159
Speaker 3: all right? Well that three home runs? Could that be

101
00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:33,839
Speaker 3: the least ever?

102
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:34,400
Speaker 2: Could be?

103
00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:36,560
Speaker 3: I don't know, I don't know, And you know, can

104
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:40,080
Speaker 3: anybody pull up lame after swings? Does? I can't imagine

105
00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:41,120
Speaker 3: you had any less?

106
00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:43,680
Speaker 1: Does the great researcher Sarah Langs have a thing on

107
00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:46,240
Speaker 1: the the fewest home runs in the first you know,

108
00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:47,760
Speaker 1: in the first round of a home run Derby.

109
00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:49,640
Speaker 3: I gotta think that that's got to be close to it.

110
00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:53,760
Speaker 1: I really, I think they even hit more home runs

111
00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:56,800
Speaker 1: per inny in the old Home Run Derby Show, which

112
00:04:56,880 --> 00:04:59,800
Speaker 1: was actually played like a baseball game, so it can

113
00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:02,920
Speaker 1: radulation to the big dumper Cal Roley fixed. Wait no,

114
00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:06,960
Speaker 1: I'm just kidding. When's the home run Derby tonight again?

115
00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:10,120
Speaker 1: Getting in with by the by the hair of his

116
00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:13,520
Speaker 1: chinny chin chin in the first round and then is

117
00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:16,080
Speaker 1: able to do one thing that we don't normally see,

118
00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:18,520
Speaker 1: and that's hey get better as the rounds going becau.

119
00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:20,480
Speaker 1: Usually guys get a big first round, they get tired

120
00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:22,480
Speaker 1: and they can't hold on. He got better as.

121
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:22,800
Speaker 3: It went on.

122
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:25,840
Speaker 1: No, I'm going and doing the research. We actually can

123
00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:29,200
Speaker 1: get down to his zero. I think, really there was

124
00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:31,320
Speaker 1: someone who had zero home runs? Please tell me wasn't

125
00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:35,919
Speaker 1: a MET? Actually got nineteen guys with zero since its

126
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:40,159
Speaker 1: inception in nineteen guys at no home run in a

127
00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:42,920
Speaker 1: home run derby nineteen guys of it, no home runs.

128
00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:47,240
Speaker 1: I'm going in. I'm finally in a quick search. We

129
00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:49,960
Speaker 1: gotta call Sarah Langzey. Yeah we got I mean we can't.

130
00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:51,560
Speaker 1: I mean some of the names that are that are

131
00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:56,760
Speaker 1: listed here, I can't. I can't believe. Oh give me

132
00:05:56,760 --> 00:05:57,119
Speaker 1: a clause.

133
00:05:57,120 --> 00:05:59,960
Speaker 3: I'm trying to go back to the old format. Like

134
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:00,760
Speaker 3: what am I missing?

135
00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:06,080
Speaker 1: Because you got guys like Beniha, Chris Sabo Piazza twice.

136
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:09,240
Speaker 3: Oh no home runs? Twice in a home run That's

137
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:12,880
Speaker 3: the thing, Like I'm trying to tell me, wasn't a met?

138
00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:13,840
Speaker 3: Tell me wasn't a met for that.

139
00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:18,120
Speaker 1: Tell me was before time brown which started in twenty fifteen. Okay,

140
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:21,119
Speaker 1: before time Browns when you the answer is jazz chisholm Jr.

141
00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:24,720
Speaker 3: Okay, so changing theol.

142
00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:27,560
Speaker 1: So what Frostburg saying is the modern era, it's jazz

143
00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:29,839
Speaker 1: jes Okay, very good, but still it doesn't change the

144
00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:32,840
Speaker 1: fact that Mike Piazza had no home runs. And yeah,

145
00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:37,680
Speaker 1: so Gary Guy, Eddie Ken Griffy Junior sighting like there's

146
00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:39,040
Speaker 1: there's a lot of names out here.

147
00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:40,520
Speaker 3: Okay, all right, makes me want to go.

148
00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:43,440
Speaker 1: Back and watch old home run Derby for the thrill

149
00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:45,880
Speaker 1: of the potential of them getting a big zero.

150
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:47,880
Speaker 3: And now we can let Sarah Langes off the whole. Okay, God,

151
00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:49,520
Speaker 3: we got it. We're good, we had it. We got it.

152
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:50,120
Speaker 5: Uh.

153
00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:53,400
Speaker 1: Now, big story out of the NFL, actually two stories.

154
00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:56,360
Speaker 1: One let me just say this. One of the big

155
00:06:56,400 --> 00:07:03,920
Speaker 1: stories earlier in the day was ESPN serve coaches, scouts, insiders,

156
00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:08,160
Speaker 1: personnel men across the NFL and had their list of

157
00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:10,880
Speaker 1: the They ranked the quarterbacks one through thirty two in

158
00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:16,920
Speaker 1: the NFL. Okay, this again, coaches, scouts, personnel men, everybody

159
00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:22,280
Speaker 1: ask them all, hey, give us your list, your top quarterbacks. Okay,

160
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:27,400
Speaker 1: yep again, coaches, personnel, scouts, numerous people people out the

161
00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:32,080
Speaker 1: league to come up with a top five list that

162
00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:35,400
Speaker 1: we gave you in bleep in January that were the

163
00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:38,640
Speaker 1: top five quarterbacks in the NFL. Right, I'm looking back

164
00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:42,200
Speaker 1: January sixteenth when we talked about this because I see

165
00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:43,400
Speaker 1: it it's on Twitter.

166
00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:44,080
Speaker 3: We talked about it.

167
00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:46,840
Speaker 1: Remember, I remember saying, there's four great quarterbacks in the

168
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:51,120
Speaker 1: NFL from the perspective of guys that win, that can

169
00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:55,200
Speaker 1: win games themselves and make everybody around them better. Right,

170
00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:57,200
Speaker 1: that's the mark of a great quarterback. Obviously, you got

171
00:07:57,280 --> 00:07:59,160
Speaker 1: to win. You have to be able to win games

172
00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:02,280
Speaker 1: by yourself, and you got to make everybody around you better.

173
00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:05,240
Speaker 1: Suddenly all the list of elite quarterbacks gets get shaken down,

174
00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:09,280
Speaker 1: and I said, there were four guys, Lamar Jackson, Josh Allen,

175
00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:13,080
Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes, and Joe Burrow. And at that point you

176
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:15,640
Speaker 1: said you have to add Jaden Daniels to that list.

177
00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:19,240
Speaker 1: There's your top five quarterbacks in the NFL that win,

178
00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:23,160
Speaker 1: win games by themselves, make everybody around him better. That's

179
00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:26,640
Speaker 1: the five guys who do that. Burrow, Lamar, Alan, Mahomes

180
00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:30,160
Speaker 1: and Jaden Daniels. This tells me I cannot only be

181
00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:32,360
Speaker 1: a coach. I can be a GM, I can be

182
00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:34,800
Speaker 1: a scout, I can be a personnel guy. And you're

183
00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:36,760
Speaker 1: saving money because I can do all of these jobs.

184
00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:39,760
Speaker 1: Apparently these were the guys. Like in January, I gave

185
00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:41,760
Speaker 1: you're your top five quarterbacks in the NFL.

186
00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:45,160
Speaker 3: This was the list. This was the list right here.

187
00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:50,319
Speaker 3: You're so proud of yourself. Well, I can't keep your job.

188
00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:52,480
Speaker 1: I can't sound surprised, but I mean really, I mean,

189
00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:54,920
Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm like my own personal AI like I

190
00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:58,000
Speaker 1: got like the Daniels thing. Worried about Jase numberre Hey, hi,

191
00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:00,480
Speaker 1: Jason Smith's gonna come. He new stuff in January. Had

192
00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:02,719
Speaker 1: to talk up to the whole league about that. He said,

193
00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:05,079
Speaker 1: he well, I mean we do the ahead of the curve.

194
00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:06,720
Speaker 1: I mean all the time. I mean, there's no question

195
00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:08,680
Speaker 1: about it. The Daniels. This is the sixth person ahead

196
00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:10,840
Speaker 1: of the curve, right, Daniels, ahead of Jalen Hurts. We

197
00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:13,200
Speaker 1: talked with Jason Locking for a little bit last hour

198
00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:17,960
Speaker 1: about the the Sirianni comments, and you know it's bs.

199
00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:21,000
Speaker 1: You know that this guy's not just along for the ride.

200
00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:23,840
Speaker 1: So he's the guy that is always got the big

201
00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:25,600
Speaker 1: question mark next to him. You've got a bunch of

202
00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:28,920
Speaker 1: other guys who performed well in regular seasons, but we've

203
00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:33,480
Speaker 1: seen postseason meltdowns Jared Goff, We've seen other.

204
00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:37,199
Speaker 3: Guys that were once great or can have runs.

205
00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:39,520
Speaker 1: You know, you got a guy like Matthew Stafford, who

206
00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:43,000
Speaker 1: is everybody's favorite quarterback, that didn't win until he left

207
00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:46,680
Speaker 1: Detroit to head to LA and then started getting his run.

208
00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:49,080
Speaker 1: But now you're questioning where he's at on that Panthea

209
00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:53,040
Speaker 1: had had a great finale to last year, the second half,

210
00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:56,160
Speaker 1: and certainly a good playoff run. But all of that

211
00:09:56,320 --> 00:10:00,040
Speaker 1: to say, yeah, there's a big divide and this this

212
00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:02,760
Speaker 1: is where we've always been with the quarterback position, going

213
00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:05,760
Speaker 1: back to when you and I started chatting about fantasy

214
00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:07,120
Speaker 1: football many many years ago.

215
00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:08,040
Speaker 3: What have we got? All right?

216
00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:10,520
Speaker 1: You got five, six, maybe eight guys that you really

217
00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:13,320
Speaker 1: feel good about and everybody else, and why do we

218
00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:15,040
Speaker 1: have it as low as eight?

219
00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:17,480
Speaker 3: Those were the only guys that played sixteen games in

220
00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:18,079
Speaker 3: a season.

221
00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:20,520
Speaker 1: That's why we would always have it down to eight,

222
00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:23,080
Speaker 1: because after that, it was all right, that guy played twelve,

223
00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:26,680
Speaker 1: that guy played ten, that guy missed two months, all

224
00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:30,000
Speaker 1: of those things. So we talk about that kind of

225
00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:36,360
Speaker 1: process and for this current list, yeah, the Fantastic four.

226
00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:39,160
Speaker 1: I was actually just seeing the memes that are going

227
00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:41,280
Speaker 1: out and people making fun of the fact that they're

228
00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:44,800
Speaker 1: putting up the four horsemen symbol right at all. They're pressing, eh,

229
00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:47,960
Speaker 1: here's the four and arn Anderson was pissed, Hey, you

230
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:51,040
Speaker 1: can't steal that from us. Now wait a minute, he said,

231
00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:53,440
Speaker 1: And I agree with him, but it's that you've got

232
00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:56,720
Speaker 1: those four guys and then you start to argue for five, six, seven.

233
00:10:56,800 --> 00:10:59,920
Speaker 1: But certainly Jayden Daniels acquitted himself quite nicely.

234
00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:00,400
Speaker 3: To that fact.

235
00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:02,920
Speaker 1: And you know, look, and it's funny we talk about

236
00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:05,680
Speaker 1: this because the guy that's we had sixth on the

237
00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:08,680
Speaker 1: list after the Super Bowl, when I said, hey, the

238
00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:11,959
Speaker 1: guy sixth on the list is clearly Jalen Hurts, Right,

239
00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:14,040
Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts is clear saying the super.

240
00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:15,680
Speaker 3: Bowl he had, the playoffs dat he had.

241
00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:17,959
Speaker 1: And that goes into the story today about how Nick

242
00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:21,440
Speaker 1: Sirianni had to defend his had to defend Jalen Hurts

243
00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:26,559
Speaker 1: among criticism that the Eagles carried him and was along

244
00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:30,800
Speaker 1: for the ride during their Super Bowl run. Sirianni's saying today, quote,

245
00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:34,320
Speaker 1: I think that's bull blank. Yeah, it's Sirianni that the

246
00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:38,320
Speaker 1: Eagles carried Jalen Hurts, he said, quote he plays the

247
00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:40,800
Speaker 1: most important position in all of sports, and it's the

248
00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:45,000
Speaker 1: most ultimate team game there is. Okay, so we have

249
00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:47,240
Speaker 1: that bit with Jalen Hurts to get to coming up

250
00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:48,319
Speaker 1: in the comments because yay, we had.

251
00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:50,280
Speaker 3: The top five. Great we told your top five. Jalen

252
00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:51,160
Speaker 3: Hurts is right there.

253
00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:53,640
Speaker 1: He's part of a big story today, but also, as

254
00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:56,160
Speaker 1: we said, part of a big story home run derby

255
00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:58,720
Speaker 1: which was just won by Cal Rawley. Joining us now

256
00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:02,080
Speaker 1: on the hotline Minnesota Twins all star Joe Ryan, who

257
00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:04,280
Speaker 1: took in the derby tonight. Joe, what's it like as

258
00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:06,880
Speaker 1: a pitcher seeing all those home runs go flying out

259
00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:07,520
Speaker 1: of the ballpark?

260
00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:10,319
Speaker 6: It is kind of weird. I'll be honest. Some of

261
00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:12,920
Speaker 6: them like rooting for him, but it feels it feels

262
00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:15,360
Speaker 6: a little different. But Colla's a special hitter, so it's

263
00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:17,200
Speaker 6: cool to see him. It's great seat buck out there

264
00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:19,640
Speaker 6: doing the thing, and sure that I was his boys,

265
00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:20,880
Speaker 6: but yeah, great night.

266
00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:24,079
Speaker 1: Overall, what do you make of O'Neil Cruz's home run

267
00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:27,440
Speaker 1: that was apparently nine hundred feet still going.

268
00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:30,480
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean we just played them the other day,

269
00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:32,560
Speaker 6: so it was something I was thinking about. I mean,

270
00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:34,480
Speaker 6: he's got power with one arm and then you give

271
00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:36,720
Speaker 6: them both. I mean, I wouldn't be surprised at.

272
00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:37,520
Speaker 1: The one hundred feet.

273
00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:40,319
Speaker 6: It's pretty special as a reliever.

274
00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:43,760
Speaker 1: And as you throw the you know pitches and what

275
00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:47,200
Speaker 1: the crack of the bat? Right we're watching it and

276
00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:50,679
Speaker 1: you hear that. Do you have flashbacks when you hear

277
00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:52,120
Speaker 1: the crack of the bat?

278
00:12:52,679 --> 00:12:54,559
Speaker 6: No, usually in my head. I mean with some of

279
00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:56,280
Speaker 6: these guys, you can't get your head around freaking out.

280
00:12:56,320 --> 00:13:00,000
Speaker 6: That's already out of the yard. So, I mean it's

281
00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:02,800
Speaker 6: a it's a cool perspective. It's great to see everyone

282
00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:04,760
Speaker 6: out there. It was awesome. The fans were great here

283
00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:08,040
Speaker 6: and just like we're all an awesome experience and cool.

284
00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:09,800
Speaker 6: Does see Junior do a thing too? I mean he's

285
00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:12,160
Speaker 6: so talented at such a young age. I mean, he

286
00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:13,679
Speaker 6: had a really good shot at doing it and just

287
00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:16,040
Speaker 6: it was in a flow and it was fun to watch.

288
00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:18,320
Speaker 1: Now. I know you said that a couple of things

289
00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:19,839
Speaker 1: you want to do with the All Star Games. You

290
00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:21,640
Speaker 1: want to talk to Yamamoto, you want to talk to

291
00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:23,800
Speaker 1: Jacob deGrom and kind of pick their brains a little bit.

292
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:25,800
Speaker 1: Have you had that chance to talk to anybody who

293
00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:26,440
Speaker 1: wanted to yet?

294
00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:29,000
Speaker 6: Yeah, the gram was holding court for a group of

295
00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:31,240
Speaker 6: guys today and just kind of going over his grips

296
00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:33,800
Speaker 6: and what he's thinking, and it's just cool. I mean,

297
00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:36,160
Speaker 6: he's obviously one of the best to do it, and

298
00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:38,760
Speaker 6: just seeing him, I mean take the time there and

299
00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:41,199
Speaker 6: just talk to talk about getting better and what he's

300
00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:44,480
Speaker 6: working on. Smart guy and so always always going to

301
00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:45,640
Speaker 6: listen to him.

302
00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:49,559
Speaker 1: So as as you get into these kind of events,

303
00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:51,600
Speaker 1: like what, what's the first thing you want to do

304
00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:53,880
Speaker 1: as you get around, you go around getting autographs?

305
00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:54,920
Speaker 3: Is it just catching up?

306
00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:55,720
Speaker 1: Uh?

307
00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:56,600
Speaker 4: You know what, what's.

308
00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:02,360
Speaker 6: And taking it all in and enjoying everything it's been.

309
00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:05,040
Speaker 6: It's been super fun so far. So I'll enjoy everything

310
00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:08,160
Speaker 6: tomorrow and get out there and uh throw the ball,

311
00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:10,840
Speaker 6: hopefully have a good one and relax and enjoy the rest.

312
00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:12,800
Speaker 1: All right, Maybe you'll get to face some of the

313
00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:14,719
Speaker 1: guys in the home run derby tonight. Maybe they'll be

314
00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:16,319
Speaker 1: back to back to back to back all the guys

315
00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:17,640
Speaker 1: in the derby tonight, we'll get to face.

316
00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:19,560
Speaker 6: That would be crazy, that'd be cool.

317
00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:22,880
Speaker 3: Hey, before we let you go, Like, where where do

318
00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:23,560
Speaker 3: you come down on this?

319
00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:27,880
Speaker 1: Obviously the inclusion of Jacob Mezarowski only five games into

320
00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:30,160
Speaker 1: his into his career, which has been a phenomenal start

321
00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:32,520
Speaker 1: so far. Like the half of his pitches are over

322
00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:35,400
Speaker 1: one hundred miles an hour? Are are you okay with that? Did?

323
00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:37,200
Speaker 1: Are you okay with seeing him? Would you rather see

324
00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:39,240
Speaker 1: somebody with a little bit more experience, more of a

325
00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:39,880
Speaker 1: resume in there?

326
00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:40,520
Speaker 3: Where are you on it?

327
00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:42,080
Speaker 1: Uh?

328
00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:45,920
Speaker 6: You know, I I think it's I think it's it's

329
00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:49,840
Speaker 6: cool for him. I think it's awesome to to have him,

330
00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:51,680
Speaker 6: to have him here. I mean, I don't know what

331
00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:55,840
Speaker 6: happened with other people and availability and all that stuff,

332
00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:58,040
Speaker 6: so I think that plays into it a little bit.

333
00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:00,520
Speaker 6: But I mean, he's a talented pitcher. I don't know

334
00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:02,960
Speaker 6: what the situation was, if he should have been up

335
00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:05,520
Speaker 6: early or not. But you know, he's here now and

336
00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:08,600
Speaker 6: we're gonna have fun watch him and support him, and

337
00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:10,760
Speaker 6: at the end of the day, maybe it's not his decision.

338
00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:13,520
Speaker 6: So yeah, he's gonna go through the ball well, and

339
00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:15,960
Speaker 6: he threw against us and it was electric to watch.

340
00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:17,440
Speaker 6: So I hope the fans enjoy it, and that's what

341
00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:19,400
Speaker 6: it is for, So it'll be good.

346
00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:30,960
Speaker 1: Good for him, and that's been that's been the reaction,

347
00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:34,400
Speaker 1: right for Misslerowski and people not knowing so much about

348
00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:39,240
Speaker 1: or the two reactions either Hey, I am upset that

349
00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:43,000
Speaker 1: he got there, or I'm okay with it. But generally

350
00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:45,200
Speaker 1: you want to see is hey, it's not his fault, right, Hey,

351

Speaker 7: Right?

353
00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:48,720
Speaker 1: I'm glad that people are getting the point where they're

354
00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:51,040
Speaker 1: not blaming him for going, because what's he going to do?

355
00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:52,920
Speaker 3: Say no, we'll let you come to the all stage.

356
00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:54,640

382
00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:14,160
Speaker 1: minutes ago and I said, oh, hey, home run Derby

383
00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:17,040
Speaker 1: is fixed for cal Rally. Yeah, obviously the big dumper,

384
00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:20,200
Speaker 1: the big uh, the big guy coming in who wins

385
00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:24,000
Speaker 1: a home run derby cal Rally right now. Also, he

386
00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:28,760
Speaker 1: advances by less than a foot because of a tie

387
00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:31,560
Speaker 1: breaker that he won in the first round against Brent Rooker.

388
00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:34,280
Speaker 3: Oh it's less than any less sorry, less than an inch?

389
00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:36,720
Speaker 1: Yes, less than a yes, that's what we're talking He wins,

390
00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:41,080
Speaker 1: and uh, he advances by that. And Rooker is talking

391
00:17:41,119 --> 00:17:43,760
Speaker 1: about this and is not doesn't seem like he's quite

392
00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:46,120
Speaker 1: that happy because he thought, oh, if we're tied, we're

393
00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:48,000
Speaker 1: gonna go to some kind of swing off and that,

394
00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:50,639
Speaker 1: and he didn't know what the rules were, and I

395
00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:53,240
Speaker 1: think Rally actually had to tell him, no, dude, i won.

396
00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:54,080
Speaker 3: I'm sorry.

397
00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:56,520
Speaker 1: I think Rally once said, hey, dude, yeah, no, you

398
00:17:56,560 --> 00:17:57,719
Speaker 1: lost by by less than an inch.

399
00:17:57,760 --> 00:17:58,320
Speaker 3: I'm sorry about that.

400
00:17:58,400 --> 00:17:58,560
Speaker 4: Yeah.

401
00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:00,440
Speaker 1: Rooker also just trying to make the point and is

402
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:03,480
Speaker 1: press or just kind of saying, well, if that's if

403
00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:06,480
Speaker 1: we have it to that decimal point, then maybe that

404
00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:09,080
Speaker 1: should be displayed along the way so we know this

405
00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:12,600
Speaker 1: and then it's not a oh, wait, you lose, but yeah,

406
00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:15,720
Speaker 1: And and the thing is, we saw it on the screen,

407
00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:17,760
Speaker 1: right we saw it on the screen. It was hey,

408
00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:20,840
Speaker 1: Rally has the longer home run, so in a tie,

409
00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:23,960
Speaker 1: Rally moves on. But instead it was a lot of confusion. Look,

410
00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:25,720
Speaker 1: they thought they were going to a swing off and

411
00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:28,400
Speaker 1: everybody thought swing up. Standing around here we are right

412
00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:30,479
Speaker 1: now because it went first. It's the furthest time one

413
00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:33,760
Speaker 1: as a tie breaker. You know, less than an inch,

414
00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:36,200
Speaker 1: really really LESSI you had it, really, but I guess

415
00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:37,920
Speaker 1: you Look, you have the ball landing right. I mean

416
00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:39,600
Speaker 1: it's you know, it's how it goes, like the things

417
00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:41,520
Speaker 1: inside the ball. I guess you can figure it out

418
00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:43,440
Speaker 1: that way. But wow, man, really.

419
00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:50,760
Speaker 3: I don't lose. Get yourself all thanks for col Rally

420
00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:51,040
Speaker 3: to win.

421
00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:54,600
Speaker 1: I'm like the I'm like the guy in the conspiracy

422
00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:57,840
Speaker 1: movie that accidentally opens up the uh uh, the whole

423
00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:00,560
Speaker 1: Pandora's box of things, Like I'm farump going.

424
00:19:00,760 --> 00:19:03,360
Speaker 7: There's guys in the hotel across from me that are

425
00:19:03,520 --> 00:19:06,639
Speaker 7: doing some things in this Watergate hotel. I see some

426
00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:10,760
Speaker 7: there's flashlights going on. Can you can you figure something up?

427
00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:11,239
Speaker 1: Like?

428
00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:11,679
Speaker 3: That's me?

429
00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:14,600
Speaker 1: Hey, cal Rally, it's it's a conspiracy theory.

430
00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:17,320
Speaker 3: It's fixed for him. Hey, I'm advancing by listening in,

431
00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:18,960
Speaker 3: and now Rooker is like, we didn't know that.

432
00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:22,119
Speaker 1: Nobody knew that we're going to a swing of Oh,

433
00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:26,240
Speaker 1: big Dumper fixed for Big Dumper. All the reality shows

434
00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:28,359
Speaker 1: where they pop up video where all of a sudden

435
00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:30,800
Speaker 1: you start to know these things. Here's the actual rules

436
00:19:30,840 --> 00:19:33,879
Speaker 1: of the event you're watching right here. It's like, you know,

437
00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:35,720
Speaker 1: ESPN the OCHO when they do that.

438
00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:37,840
Speaker 3: It's like, how the hell is this game score?

439
00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:40,960
Speaker 1: But it was this weekend, this last weekend, and they start,

440
00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:43,480
Speaker 1: you know, giving you a bit by bit. The other

441
00:19:43,520 --> 00:19:45,919
Speaker 1: story that's circulating is and it was still counted as

442
00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:47,840
Speaker 1: a home run. But the kid that went up and

443
00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:50,680
Speaker 1: grabbed one of Kevin Arrow's home runs, Oh yeah, yeah,

444
00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:53,480
Speaker 1: it brought it back. What the hell are you Doing's like, no, no,

445
00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:56,240
Speaker 1: it still counts. Yeah, And so now that guy's gonna

446
00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:59,040
Speaker 1: go viral and he'll probably get some kind of endorsement

447
00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:01,679
Speaker 1: deal out of his hops. But yeah, a little bit

448
00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:04,920
Speaker 1: of chaos going on. But Ruker clearly displeased. Yeah, a

449
00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:05,639
Speaker 1: little bit. A little bit.

450
00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:07,080
Speaker 3: I thought I was going to a swing. Off, thought

451

00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:48,680
Speaker 1: lack of accuracy. You just say you were getting ready

468
00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:52,760
Speaker 1: to pick up a career. I think they're too they're

469
00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:54,919
Speaker 1: too shoulder. I think it would also be gone, like

470
00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:57,359
Speaker 1: I mean, not quite mine. I see I see movies

471
00:20:57,359 --> 00:21:00,800
Speaker 1: where assassins can throw axes across an entire you know,

472
00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:03,440
Speaker 1: airplane hangar and bury it in somebody's head.

473
00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:05,720
Speaker 3: And I'm watching this where people are like, you know.

474
00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:08,760
Speaker 1: Ten feet away from a big bottom of a tree

475
00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:10,679
Speaker 1: that is just cut and turned over, and they're like

476
00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:12,879
Speaker 1: missing the bulls. I'm like, how are you missing the

477
00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:17,000
Speaker 1: bulls eye by this much? Everything should be a bulls eyes? Like,

478
00:21:17,040 --> 00:21:19,160
Speaker 1: how I understand that got to get the proper rotation.

479
00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:21,880
Speaker 1: Maybe maybe you're a little excited because you know it's

480
00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:25,119
Speaker 1: on TV, so you're overthrowing a little bit. That's muscle memory,

481
00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:26,840
Speaker 1: you is I grabbed the eye throw it. I grabbed

482
00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:28,720
Speaker 1: the ax, I throw grab the Maybe maybe it was

483
00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:33,240
Speaker 1: a different uh heft to it, maybe a different kind

484
00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:36,520
Speaker 1: of weight balance there. Maybe maybe instead of just the

485
00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:38,960
Speaker 1: nor normal people who do it, bring in some assassins

486
00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:41,000
Speaker 1: and people who work for the government. You can blur

487
00:21:41,080 --> 00:21:43,080
Speaker 1: out their faces. Somebody knows who they are. But like

488
00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:47,240
Speaker 1: you know, the the old magician gives off the tricks thing.

489
00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:49,720
Speaker 1: We had a fox and then put the mask on

490
00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:53,639
Speaker 1: the guy Barkley, I think you have the announcer so

491
00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:55,840
Speaker 1: he doesn't so you don't think he knows you have

492
00:21:55,840 --> 00:21:56,359
Speaker 1: a disorder.

493
00:21:56,520 --> 00:21:59,760
Speaker 4: Like and here comes car Looos with jackal Oh very

494

496
00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:09,919
Speaker 4: He has actually split an axe in half with his

497
00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:13,679
Speaker 4: last throw. Carlos the Jackal moves on to the semi final.

498

Speaker 1: With other random events you've brought up Carlos Jacko. Do

501
00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:24,920
Speaker 1: you have a book you're working on that has a

502
00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:27,919
Speaker 1: Carlos the Jackal. No, No, Carlos the Jackal was the

503
00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:31,119
Speaker 1: big in the Bourne's identity supremacy.

504
00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:34,359
Speaker 3: That's the that was. That was Jason Bourne's big rival

505
00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:35,280
Speaker 3: was Carlos.

506
00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:37,800
Speaker 1: The jack thought you were bringing out someone else for

507
00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:38,959
Speaker 1: a new generation.

508
00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:43,359
Speaker 4: And we have an interview with Carlos the Jackal coming

509
00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:43,800
Speaker 4: up there.

510
00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:47,800
Speaker 3: He would say, I don't have nothing to say and

511
00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:50,680
Speaker 3: just keep walking. Makes it's fakes for cal Rowly, all right.

512
00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:53,399
Speaker 3: So well that's a nice little chaos, yeah going on.

513
00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:55,600
Speaker 1: We got a five hundred and thirteen foot home run,

514
00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:58,919
Speaker 1: we got his conspiracy, and you got the kid bringing

515
00:22:58,920 --> 00:22:59,320
Speaker 1: one back.

516
00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:03,600
Speaker 3: Is a lot going on and no Berm.

517
00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:06,720
Speaker 1: Earlier to back back, back, back, one one inch, half

518
00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:10,719
Speaker 1: an inch and gone. So we talked about this earlier

519
00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:13,360
Speaker 1: in this hour. And thanks to Joe Ryan Twins All

520
00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:15,640
Speaker 1: Star for stopping bio. This was talking home Boks great

521
00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:20,080
Speaker 1: and uh today Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni had to

522
00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:25,040
Speaker 1: defend quarterback Jalen Hurts in a pointed response the notion

523
00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:29,400
Speaker 1: that Hurts was quote along for the ride during Philly's

524
00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:31,919
Speaker 1: Super Bowl run last season. Sirianni is saying, quote, I

525
00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:34,600
Speaker 1: think that's bull blank, and he went on to say,

526
00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:36,760
Speaker 1: he plays the most important position in all of sports.

527
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:39,560
Speaker 1: It's the most ultimate team game there is. What I

528
00:23:39,600 --> 00:23:42,639
Speaker 1: admire about him is his selflessness of doing anything we

529
00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:45,280
Speaker 1: need to do to win. Now, why is this brought up?

530
00:23:45,320 --> 00:23:49,520
Speaker 1: Because obviously, hey, they became Saquon Barkley dependent. Saquon Barkley

531
00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:52,200
Speaker 1: runs for two thousand yards, the Eagles wind up winning

532
00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:55,439
Speaker 1: the Super bowls. Oh, maybe Jalen Hurts isn't great. Not

533
00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:59,920
Speaker 1: that I always agree with Nick Sirianni, but wow, did

534
00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:03,240
Speaker 1: I completely agree with him on this. Jalen Hurts and

535
00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:04,760
Speaker 1: we talked about it when we gave you our list

536
00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:07,280
Speaker 1: of the five greatest quarterbacks in the NFL back in January.

537
00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:09,640
Speaker 1: Th Oh, by the way, ESPN's list today has those

538
00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:12,600
Speaker 1: five guys, So again, we were six months out of

539
00:24:12,600 --> 00:24:16,119
Speaker 1: the curve. Jalen Hurts is right outside of that list

540
00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:19,480
Speaker 1: because Hurts has played a good part of his career

541
00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:23,040
Speaker 1: with terrific weapons. Right, you can't ignore whether it's whether

542
00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:27,760
Speaker 1: it's Aj Brown reading or not reading, Barkley tight ends

543
00:24:27,760 --> 00:24:29,720
Speaker 1: he has had with Goddard, Like he's had pretty guy.

544
00:24:29,760 --> 00:24:32,199
Speaker 1: He's also won and played well when he doesn't have

545
00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:34,440
Speaker 1: good weapons, when he never had a running game. Right,

546
00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:36,360
Speaker 1: So it's not like he's a but he has had

547
00:24:36,359 --> 00:24:39,040
Speaker 1: pretty good guys around him for his career. But with

548
00:24:39,119 --> 00:24:42,400
Speaker 1: what he has done, and especially last year, you look

549
00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:45,760
Speaker 1: at the playoff run he had where his quarterback ratings

550
00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:50,119
Speaker 1: won eleven, won, ten, one, nineteen in the Super Bowl.

551
00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:54,280
Speaker 1: I mean it was incredible the run he had in

552
00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:56,359
Speaker 1: the playoffs. Right, This is this is a guy that

553
00:24:56,840 --> 00:24:59,800
Speaker 1: last year and when you talk about the regular season

554
00:24:59,800 --> 00:25:02,760
Speaker 1: for him, you know he's over thirty five touch When

555
00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:04,880
Speaker 1: you talk about the touchdowns because the touchdowns running count

556
00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:06,960
Speaker 1: just like they touched the count passing. You're talking about

557
00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:11,640
Speaker 1: over thirty touchdowns and five interceptions. Jalen Hurts is terrific.

558
00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:15,400
Speaker 1: He doesn't get to do that. Other quarterbacks get they

559
00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:18,240
Speaker 1: win a Super Bowl and here Jalen Hurts is well,

560
00:25:18,359 --> 00:25:21,479
Speaker 1: but Barkley gets all the attention. And okay, rightfully, so right,

561
00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:23,480
Speaker 1: Barkley had an incredible year, one of the best years

562
00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:25,600
Speaker 1: we've ever seen from a running back. But when it

563
00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:29,399
Speaker 1: got to the playoffs and Saquon Barkley wasn't quite the

564
00:25:29,440 --> 00:25:31,000
Speaker 1: guy he was during the season, because you know, three

565
00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:31,840
Speaker 1: and fifty.

566
00:25:31,560 --> 00:25:33,200
Speaker 3: Carries will do that to a guy a little bit.

567
00:25:33,240 --> 00:25:34,359
Speaker 3: Who was your best player?

568
00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:36,840
Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts, who goes and has one of the greatest

569
00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:39,720
Speaker 1: Super Bowls of all time by a quarterback, when when

570
00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:43,080
Speaker 1: you're talking about his efficiency, his numbers, the game was

571
00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:47,280
Speaker 1: over at halftime. Jalen Hurts is fantastic. He's just outside

572
00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:49,879
Speaker 1: of that list of the top five quarterbacks in the

573
00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:54,080
Speaker 1: game because those guys Burrow, Lamar Jackson, josh Allen Mahomes

574
00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:57,240
Speaker 1: and Jayden Daniels all do all three things that elite

575
00:25:57,320 --> 00:26:00,480
Speaker 1: quarterbacks do. They win, they win all by themsel and

576
00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:03,639
Speaker 1: they make everybody around them better. Right, those guys do that.

577
00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:06,080
Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts. Is there a tiny bit of a question

578
00:26:06,200 --> 00:26:08,520
Speaker 1: for that. Yeah, but you're talking about splinting hairs between

579
00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:11,400
Speaker 1: the top five quarterbacks game, where's Jalen Hurts. He's right

580
00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:13,400
Speaker 1: there at the beginning of that next level behind them, right,

581
00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:17,159
Speaker 1: And to make the point about Hurts even further. Oh,

582
00:26:17,240 --> 00:26:19,920
Speaker 1: his numbers weren't where they were last year. Okay, when

583
00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:21,880
Speaker 1: a guy runs the ball three hundred fifty times, there's

584
00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:24,080
Speaker 1: only so many offensive plays. It's not like, well, they

585
00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:25,800
Speaker 1: ran the ball these three hundred and fifty plays, what

586
00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:27,880
Speaker 1: did you do with all those passing plays? No, when

587
00:26:27,880 --> 00:26:29,639
Speaker 1: you run the ball that much, there's a little bit

588
00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:32,040
Speaker 1: less to throw the ball. And when you're running that successfully,

589
00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:34,280
Speaker 1: guess what, You're gonna keep running the football. And oh,

590
00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:36,000
Speaker 1: by the way, who also had a pretty good year

591
00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:38,840
Speaker 1: running the football? Jalen Hurts because that's what he does.

592
00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:41,440
Speaker 1: I mean, I mean, I don't understand the whole Yeah,

593
00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:43,359
Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts is not that guy. I don't get that

594
00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:46,280
Speaker 1: whole narrative. Well, it's what we always get into, these

595
00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:52,399
Speaker 1: difficult and weird conversations, regardless of sport, about supporting cast

596
00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:55,600
Speaker 1: team versus individual.

597
00:26:55,040 --> 00:26:58,120
Speaker 3: Accomplishment and their role in right the whole Belichick, Brady,

598
00:26:58,240 --> 00:26:59,960
Speaker 3: who gets more credit? Nonsense?

599
00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:04,280
Speaker 1: Go all the way through the forty nine ers, all

600
00:27:04,280 --> 00:27:07,040
Speaker 1: the way back in the day. How good was Montana

601
00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:09,240
Speaker 1: versus Steven When look at these guys that were playing

602
00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:12,440
Speaker 1: with look at these rosters, Go back to the Dallas Cowboys,

603
00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:16,880
Speaker 1: Troy Aikman gets categorically dismissed on any list of all

604
00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:22,280
Speaker 1: time quarterbacks, despite his brilliance and in that role, because

605
00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:25,479
Speaker 1: he didn't put up thirty five touchdowns. He wasn't winging

606
00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:29,719
Speaker 1: it around like he was Dan Marino and such, so

607
00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:33,320
Speaker 1: it gets dismissed. No, you played to winning football, and

608
00:27:33,440 --> 00:27:35,919
Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts has done that all right. Last year was

609
00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:40,080
Speaker 1: his best year completion percentage. They finally figured out with

610
00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:46,439
Speaker 1: the system your favorite word, your old buddy gilbryandt you know,

611
00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:50,639
Speaker 1: do you have a system? Is completed nearly sixty nine

612
00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:53,159
Speaker 1: percent of his past four straight years he's rushed for

613
00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:56,679
Speaker 1: double digit touchdowns. The tush push. We talked about it

614
00:27:56,680 --> 00:27:59,639
Speaker 1: with lock and forth. It's an unstoppable play. Yes, you

615
00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:01,600
Speaker 1: have a great offensive line. Guess who still.

616
00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:02,520
Speaker 3: Has to orchestrate it?

617
00:28:02,640 --> 00:28:05,600
Speaker 1: The quarterback right, it's the old Brady fall into the

618
00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:10,240
Speaker 1: right gap or or why some teams like with Philip Rivers,

619
00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:11,720
Speaker 1: you never ran a quarterback sneak.

620
00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:12,600
Speaker 3: You couldn't.

621
00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:14,360
Speaker 1: Oh, but you got a guy that's willing to put

622
00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:17,000
Speaker 1: his body in that space and is very good in

623
00:28:17,080 --> 00:28:20,159
Speaker 1: the depth at getting whatever yardag he needs. And so

624
00:28:20,359 --> 00:28:23,600
Speaker 1: for Jalen Hurts, it's I think the unfortunate byproduct of

625
00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:27,879
Speaker 1: you throw four hit this case under three thousand yards,

626
00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:29,160
Speaker 1: your career best is.

627
00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:31,560
Speaker 3: Thirty eight under you yard like a Bears quarterback. Thirty

628
00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:35,960
Speaker 3: eight Is that very few of them but a couple

629
00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:36,640
Speaker 3: of game yea. Yeah.

630
00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:39,080
Speaker 1: But but just to that idea, since he's not gonna

631
00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:42,160
Speaker 1: put up eye popping throwing stats, that he's always going

632
00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:44,720
Speaker 1: to get dismissed as if he's being pulled on. Yeah,

633
00:28:44,760 --> 00:28:46,600
Speaker 1: because we've come to that point where Okay, if you

634
00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:48,320
Speaker 1: don't give me the numbers, we don't think you're as

635
00:28:48,360 --> 00:28:50,680
Speaker 1: good as you are. And some quarterbacks, hey, this is

636
00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:53,440
Speaker 1: about youse. Don't forget his rushing. What he does rushing

637
00:28:53,520 --> 00:28:55,600
Speaker 1: the football that counts as well. So now suddenly his

638
00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:57,880
Speaker 1: total offense, Like, I think it's more fair for a

639
00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:00,800
Speaker 1: quarterback if you say, okay, let's go impair your total

640
00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:03,239
Speaker 1: offense numbers. But because then, but that's where we are.

641
00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:05,800
Speaker 1: I kind of understand that that Jalen Hurts was thirty

642
00:29:05,840 --> 00:29:09,200
Speaker 1: two and five last year, thirty two touchdowns and five interceptions, right,

643
00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:11,960
Speaker 1: thirty five hundred yards total. When you talk about offense.

644
00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:14,240
Speaker 1: It's a time to compare total offense right, because you

645
00:29:14,880 --> 00:29:18,800
Speaker 1: can't you know, look, we don't tell quarterbacks like Aaron

646
00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:22,000
Speaker 1: Rodgers or you know that don't run the ball as

647
00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:24,680
Speaker 1: much but have had great careers. Hey, I'm marking you

648
00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:27,600
Speaker 1: down because you don't run the ball. When guys run

649
00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:29,400
Speaker 1: the ball, Oh, that doesn't really count as part. No, no,

650
00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:31,040
Speaker 1: if you're not going to rip the guy for not

651
00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:33,880
Speaker 1: running yet, you got to count the quarterbacks and the

652
00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:35,960
Speaker 1: yarders they run for because that's part of what makes

653
00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:37,800
Speaker 1: them who they are as a quarterball. But it's you

654
00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:40,280
Speaker 1: and I have been on Aaron together long enough. I

655
00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:43,480
Speaker 1: mean we watched the rise and the end of Cam Newton.

656
00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:46,080
Speaker 1: I don't think that guy ever got the proper appreciation

657
00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:48,520
Speaker 1: for what he was as a quarterback. You know it's

658
00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:50,520
Speaker 1: going to burn out at some point if you play

659
00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:53,600
Speaker 1: that style of football, but doesn't take away and diminish

660
00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:56,480
Speaker 1: it any way, shape or form. The greatness And for

661
00:29:56,560 --> 00:29:59,320
Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts, he's got a right system, a right coach,

662
00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:02,920
Speaker 1: a right set of teammates and they all buy in.

663
00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:07,560
Speaker 1: You don't need the individual and gaudy numbers still gets

664
00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:09,720
Speaker 1: his paycheck and they get a lot of wins in

665
00:30:09,760 --> 00:30:12,600
Speaker 1: the process. I think he's living right. He's great. Six

666
00:30:12,680 --> 00:30:15,960
Speaker 1: best quarterback in the NFL, right below those five guy.

667
00:30:16,040 --> 00:30:18,320

Speaker 1: trending in the wide world of sports. Guy who's been

669
00:30:20,440 --> 00:30:23,760
Speaker 1: called the Jalen Hurts of Fox Sports Radio because he

670
00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:26,880

671
00:30:26,920 --> 00:30:28,800
Speaker 1: de Seger, all right, checked.

672
00:30:28,520 --> 00:30:30,360
Speaker 3: Sure, if I got Kelsey in front of me, I'm

673
00:30:30,360 --> 00:30:33,680
Speaker 3: scoring rather even better without Kelsey and it doesn't matter. Yeah,

674
00:30:33,720 --> 00:30:34,800

00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:49,120
Speaker 5: run derby, Jason Bay, a former Met, had zero home runs.

739
00:33:49,120 --> 00:33:51,040
Speaker 5: Of course, he was with the Pirates at the time,

740
00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:55,959
Speaker 5: but in two thousand, wasn't me's ruined him in a went.

741
00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:58,440
Speaker 5: He wasn't a Met yet, No, he was ruined by

742
00:33:58,480 --> 00:34:00,320
Speaker 5: the time he got to the Mets. I guess I

743
00:34:00,320 --> 00:34:01,760
Speaker 5: could say, hey, no home run, and you'll let send

744
00:34:01,800 --> 00:34:03,160
Speaker 5: him to the Mets. No home runs in the home

745
00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:04,959
Speaker 5: run derby get him to the Mets. The format back

746
00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:08,759
Speaker 5: then it was ten outs for every batter, so he

747
00:34:08,880 --> 00:34:10,759
Speaker 5: used all his ten outs and had a total of

748
00:34:10,840 --> 00:34:13,360
Speaker 5: zero homers, while Bobby a Bray who had twenty four.

749
00:34:15,760 --> 00:34:18,880
Speaker 5: Now the hitters have three minutes or forty pitches to

750
00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:21,200
Speaker 5: get as many, but apparently he's not the only one.

751
00:34:21,200 --> 00:34:23,520
Speaker 5: But that is for certain, a guy who had zero

752
00:34:23,760 --> 00:34:25,880

Speaker 1: is saying, Okay, we've seen enough. We will see Cooper

777
00:35:28,600 --> 00:35:30,719
Speaker 1: Flag and see you guys all in the fall as

778
00:35:30,719 --> 00:35:34,600
Speaker 1: we get ready to go for this season. And honestly,

779
00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:37,719
Speaker 1: rightfully so, because now I can double down on what

780
00:35:37,800 --> 00:35:41,279
Speaker 1: I said last week. If you think he's gonna come

781
00:35:41,280 --> 00:35:44,120
Speaker 1: in as anything other than the first option for the Mavericks,

782
00:35:44,120 --> 00:35:47,640
Speaker 1: you're crazy. He is the franchise. You watched him play.

783
00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:50,759
Speaker 1: I watched him playing both games. You can tell right

784
00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:54,080
Speaker 1: away he has that I'm the best player on the

785
00:35:54,080 --> 00:35:56,840
Speaker 1: court attitude, and you can see it. You are drawn

786
00:35:56,880 --> 00:35:58,879
Speaker 1: to him, and you can tell he passes the eye test.

787
00:35:58,920 --> 00:36:01,200
Speaker 1: And no, by the way, second game, yeah, put up

788
00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:03,120
Speaker 1: a lot of shots in the first game, which was awesome.

789
00:36:03,160 --> 00:36:04,920
Speaker 1: Didn't score a lot, but the fact he could get

790
00:36:04,920 --> 00:36:07,319
Speaker 1: his own shot, was able to back down defenders who

791
00:36:07,320 --> 00:36:10,200
Speaker 1: are pretty good. Then second game he goes for thirty.

792
00:36:11,040 --> 00:36:14,080
Speaker 1: He is that good and he's kind of like Lebron

793
00:36:14,440 --> 00:36:17,080
Speaker 1: where they will give him the keys right away because

794
00:36:17,239 --> 00:36:20,439
Speaker 1: Anthony Davis is still a download presence and Kyrie Irving

795
00:36:20,520 --> 00:36:22,440
Speaker 1: is gonna be out for the first few months. By

796
00:36:22,440 --> 00:36:24,600
Speaker 1: the time Kyrie Irving comes back, it's gonna be Cooper

797
00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:27,040
Speaker 1: Flagg's team. Now you're gonna have to navigate the rookie

798
00:36:27,080 --> 00:36:29,320
Speaker 1: wall and keep his minutes down a little bit to

799
00:36:29,600 --> 00:36:31,600
Speaker 1: make sure you got him for all eighty two and

800
00:36:31,640 --> 00:36:34,680
Speaker 1: then the playoffs whatever you have. But there's no mistake,

801
00:36:34,719 --> 00:36:37,120
Speaker 1: there's no Hey, what a great third option this is

802
00:36:37,160 --> 00:36:40,799
Speaker 1: gonna be. He is the number one option opening night

803
00:36:40,920 --> 00:36:42,760
Speaker 1: with the Mavericks. He has shown that he can handle

804
00:36:42,760 --> 00:36:45,759
Speaker 1: it Physically, he is ready. He's not too thin coming

805
00:36:45,840 --> 00:36:46,359
Speaker 1: into the league.

806
00:36:46,360 --> 00:36:46,520
Speaker 4: You know.

807
00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:49,120
Speaker 1: Hey, look, and congratulations to Wenby for coming back out

808
00:36:49,120 --> 00:36:50,799
Speaker 1: in McLean bill of health. Can't wait to see him

809
00:36:50,840 --> 00:36:52,880
Speaker 1: back on the court. Doesn't have to worry about putting

810
00:36:52,920 --> 00:36:55,440
Speaker 1: some weight on, figuring things out down low, getting used

811
00:36:55,480 --> 00:36:59,640
Speaker 1: to the banging, the physical play. Cooper flag physically, is ready, mentally,

812
00:36:59,719 --> 00:37:02,680
Speaker 1: is ready. Talent wise, he's ready. He showed all of

813
00:37:02,680 --> 00:37:05,040
Speaker 1: the traits that made him the number one pick offensively,

814
00:37:05,360 --> 00:37:09,440
Speaker 1: getting to the basket, passing, defensively, He's ready. He is

815
00:37:09,520 --> 00:37:12,560
Speaker 1: the star, not even twenty years old. He is the

816
00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:15,200
Speaker 1: star opening night for the Mavericks. Well, that's still the

817
00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:18,560
Speaker 1: scary thing, right is that how he reclassified everything and

818
00:37:18,640 --> 00:37:21,520
Speaker 1: went to college a year early. And also, you know,

819
00:37:21,960 --> 00:37:25,760
Speaker 1: we keep waiting for that wall and maybe that'll happen

820
00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:29,279
Speaker 1: at some point late in the season, you know, as

821
00:37:29,320 --> 00:37:31,959
Speaker 1: you try to meet her out minutes and everything else.

822
00:37:32,040 --> 00:37:34,680
Speaker 1: But you saw a guy who's not afraid to try

823
00:37:34,680 --> 00:37:37,200
Speaker 1: to get his own that game against the Lakers. Was

824
00:37:37,560 --> 00:37:41,160
Speaker 1: it a textbook performance, No, but it's a first time

825
00:37:41,200 --> 00:37:44,200
Speaker 1: out right, you're feeling it out hype and everything for

826
00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:49,040
Speaker 1: summer league. But the aggressiveness showed the ability to get

827
00:37:49,040 --> 00:37:51,680
Speaker 1: out and play a little bit of d and moving

828
00:37:51,719 --> 00:37:53,839
Speaker 1: the ball, all of the things that we watched him

829
00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:58,040
Speaker 1: a year ago with that star laden duke lineup, that

830
00:37:58,080 --> 00:37:59,440
Speaker 1: he's going to be able to come in and do.

831
00:38:00,280 --> 00:38:02,359
Speaker 1: And then you go and you have a thirty point

832
00:38:02,440 --> 00:38:06,360
Speaker 1: performance before you get shut down thirty one to be

833
00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:12,440
Speaker 1: precise and again another twenty one shot effort, something he

834
00:38:12,480 --> 00:38:16,279
Speaker 1: didn't get to do at Duke, Right. I mean occasionally

835
00:38:16,280 --> 00:38:18,680
Speaker 1: you'd have a big performance, but it was usually operational

836
00:38:18,719 --> 00:38:23,279
Speaker 1: efficiency because like we talked about at the time, you

837
00:38:23,320 --> 00:38:26,440
Speaker 1: look at look at the draft, they all found their

838
00:38:26,440 --> 00:38:30,040
Speaker 1: way to the rosters, right, So it will be an

839
00:38:30,040 --> 00:38:34,879
Speaker 1: interesting process moving forward for Cooper flag But shutting him down,

840
00:38:34,920 --> 00:38:39,040
Speaker 1: you know, the proof of concept has been done. The

841
00:38:39,160 --> 00:38:43,879
Speaker 1: public's curiosity has been satisfied. I'm sure your partners would

842
00:38:43,920 --> 00:38:46,040
Speaker 1: like a little more in the ratings bonanza that is

843
00:38:46,160 --> 00:38:49,640
Speaker 1: him showing up because what was it, the fourth highest

844
00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:54,720
Speaker 1: rated Summer League game that we've seen was the number

845
00:38:54,760 --> 00:38:58,000
Speaker 1: that came out. So certainly people in anticipation, maybe the

846
00:38:58,040 --> 00:39:00,719
Speaker 1: little hate watching of the Lakers I helped in that

847
00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:03,880
Speaker 1: first performance. But but you saw what you needed to

848
00:39:03,960 --> 00:39:05,799
Speaker 1: and now you go back, retool and get ready for

849
00:39:05,800 --> 00:39:08,359
Speaker 1: the regular season. He needs the ball every possession. He

850
00:39:08,400 --> 00:39:10,160
Speaker 1: needs to be able to create. He needs to be

851
00:39:10,160 --> 00:39:11,840
Speaker 1: able to back down the defender. He needs to be

852
00:39:11,880 --> 00:39:13,640
Speaker 1: able to look where he can pass across the court

853
00:39:13,719 --> 00:39:15,919
Speaker 1: because he's got that kind of vision being as tall

854
00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:18,160
Speaker 1: as he is, Like, I don't know, I can't believe

855
00:39:18,200 --> 00:39:20,880
Speaker 1: there's any world where where you're gonna slow play it.

856
00:39:20,920 --> 00:39:23,399
Speaker 1: Like if if I saw, hey he was a little

857
00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:27,760
Speaker 1: bit tentative, or hey he really had trouble doing anything.

858
00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:29,520
Speaker 1: But he didn't. He just missed his shots in the

859
00:39:29,520 --> 00:39:31,080
Speaker 1: first game. Okay, I get it, but still he took

860
00:39:31,120 --> 00:39:32,799
Speaker 1: twenty one. He went out there to give me the ball,

861
00:39:32,960 --> 00:39:34,960
Speaker 1: and then scored thirty in a second game. There's just

862
00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:37,000
Speaker 1: because he missed his shots. It's it's summer league.

863
00:39:37,040 --> 00:39:37,680
Speaker 3: What does it matter.

864
00:39:37,920 --> 00:39:40,480
Speaker 1: I mean, Wemby at least was a little hesitant going in,

865
00:39:40,560 --> 00:39:42,640
Speaker 1: maybe wanted to be a little bit too. Hey I

866
00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:46,560
Speaker 1: want to make that Yet he's terrible.

867
00:39:46,760 --> 00:39:47,359
Speaker 3: What's he doing?

868
00:39:47,440 --> 00:39:48,040
Speaker 4: Why is he so?

869
00:39:48,440 --> 00:39:50,560
Speaker 1: He was tentative, He was just a little tended. I

870
00:39:50,560 --> 00:39:52,840
Speaker 1: want to make my teammates happy. And then clearly Wenby

871
00:39:52,840 --> 00:39:55,520
Speaker 1: got it and understood that I'm the franchise. Cooper Fleagg

872
00:39:55,560 --> 00:39:58,240
Speaker 1: gets that right away. He gets I'm the franch I mean, really,

873
00:39:58,400 --> 00:40:00,360
Speaker 1: watch the game. You really tell me he gonna a

874
00:40:00,360 --> 00:40:01,600
Speaker 1: guy that's gonna sit and not touch the.

875
00:40:01,520 --> 00:40:02,880
Speaker 3: Ball for a couple of course.

876
00:40:02,920 --> 00:40:06,640
Speaker 1: Not. He's the number one star, He's the number one

877
00:40:06,719 --> 00:40:10,080
Speaker 1: option on that team, starting opening night. That's how it's

878
00:40:10,080 --> 00:40:13,200
Speaker 1: gonna be curiosity once they get Kyrie Irving back and

879
00:40:13,480 --> 00:40:16,760
Speaker 1: they work around Look, there's all sorts of wild rumors

880
00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:19,480
Speaker 1: going on about the Mavericks and retooling their roster as well,

881
00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:22,920
Speaker 1: but in the short term, yeah, and the aggressiveness is

882
00:40:22,920 --> 00:40:25,120
Speaker 1: what you want to see coming out of the gate, right,

883
00:40:25,160 --> 00:40:30,279
Speaker 1: there's no passivity and that ball moved exit out about

884
00:40:30,280 --> 00:40:32,680
Speaker 1: a Fresco exit swollen dome. Coming up next, we have

885
00:40:32,760 --> 00:40:37,600
Speaker 1: more on the home run derby controversy. Plus way do

886
00:40:37,680 --> 00:40:39,880
Speaker 1: we tell you what we're gonna tell you about Brownie

887
00:40:39,960 --> 00:40:42,840
Speaker 1: James So far tonight for the Lakers in Summer League.

888
00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:43,760
Speaker 3: This is Fox
