You know, 9 00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:40,720 Speaker 2: I wasn't always a lebron basher holl that thought. There 10 00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:42,680 Speaker 2: are two types of people in the world, those who 11 00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:48,519 Speaker 2: are focused and those who think they are focused. I'll 12 00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:53,760 Speaker 2: give you an example involves the world's greatest cab driver. Now, 13 00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:56,440 Speaker 2: this dude was focused. One day, he pulls up to 14 00:00:56,520 --> 00:01:01,360 Speaker 2: a stop and a naked lady gets you into his car. 15 00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:05,399 Speaker 2: He turns around to greet her, realizes she's naked, and 16 00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:08,679 Speaker 2: he stares at her. She gets angry and says, what, 17 00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:12,560 Speaker 2: you've never seen a naked lady before? He said, of 18 00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:15,640 Speaker 2: course I have, but I don't see a purser or wallet. 19 00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:20,400 Speaker 2: So how do you plan on paying me? Now that's 20 00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:23,560 Speaker 2: the man who's focused on his business. You know, when 21 00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:27,720 Speaker 2: Lebron headed to Miami, took his talents to Miami in 22 00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:31,160 Speaker 2: twenty ten. I think he was focused. He wanted to 23 00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:33,840 Speaker 2: win a championship. He'd been in the league seven years, 24 00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:36,880 Speaker 2: hadn't had one. He went to the finals four years, 25 00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:41,440 Speaker 2: won two championships. When he went back to Cleveland out 26 00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:44,559 Speaker 2: of guilt, he wanted to win a championship. He did 27 00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:48,400 Speaker 2: it quite an accomplishment. When he came to Los Angeles, 28 00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:53,160 Speaker 2: he wanted to win a championship. And although I do 29 00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:57,279 Speaker 2: not think the Bubble Championship deserves an asterisk, because everybody 30 00:01:57,360 --> 00:01:59,760 Speaker 2: was in the same boat all time, off is not 31 00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:03,760 Speaker 2: Lakers had some older bodies not having to travel four 32 00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:07,520 Speaker 2: months or not having to play for four months to 33 00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:11,880 Speaker 2: lick their wounds and not having to travel, they benefited 34 00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:16,480 Speaker 2: more than anybody else. But regardless, he won championships with 35 00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:21,480 Speaker 2: three organizations. Now I knew all about the Lebron hullabaloo. 36 00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:23,560 Speaker 2: While he was at Saint Vincent Saint Mary's High School. 37 00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:25,520 Speaker 2: I was in Michigan with CBS Radio. One day, I 38 00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:28,120 Speaker 2: took a drive down to Cleveland from Detroit. It's only 39 00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:30,239 Speaker 2: a two hour drive, nice little drive around the lake. 40 00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:33,480 Speaker 2: I wanted to see him play in person. It was 41 00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:37,680 Speaker 2: probably around February or March of two thousand and three, 42 00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:41,160 Speaker 2: and I was impressed. I saw an NBA body. I 43 00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:44,680 Speaker 2: saw a big dude with guard skills. I saw an 44 00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:48,040 Speaker 2: unselfish player and someone who looked to me like he 45 00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:52,560 Speaker 2: was very focused on his craft. I said to myself, 46 00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:55,840 Speaker 2: could I project him in an NBA game? Yeah? And 47 00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:58,040 Speaker 2: the next year he was in the NBA. And he's 48 00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:02,800 Speaker 2: clearly lived up to the hype. Something happened earlier today 49 00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:07,519 Speaker 2: that causes me to wonder if we might start to 50 00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:11,320 Speaker 2: see a focused Lebron. Now, that might take a little 51 00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:17,440 Speaker 2: bit more to get me convinced, but he's got my attention. Obviously, 52 00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:22,000 Speaker 2: he opted out of his contract because rather than you know, 53 00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:25,520 Speaker 2: accept the player option in cluct fifty one million. This year, 54 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:30,440 Speaker 2: he is eligible for the maximum three year, one hundred 55 00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:35,760 Speaker 2: and sixty two million dollar deal. However, it's been reported 56 00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:40,640 Speaker 2: that Lebron James might be willing to work with the 57 00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:42,840 Speaker 2: Lakers on a new deal that would come in below 58 00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:48,360 Speaker 2: the maximum. Why that would open up potentially a twelve 59 00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:53,680 Speaker 2: point nine million mid level exception opportunity that Rob Polenka 60 00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:57,280 Speaker 2: might be able to take. Advantage of to sign quote 61 00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:00,760 Speaker 2: an impact player, what kind of impact player? 62 00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:02,320 Speaker 1: Hell, I don't know. 63 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:05,760 Speaker 2: I know, you know, we're hearing the name Klay Thompson 64 00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:09,320 Speaker 2: out there, and that might be cool because maybe Michael 65 00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:11,640 Speaker 2: Thompson can come out of retirement. He can play with 66 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:14,280 Speaker 2: his set also be like a father son game every night. 67 00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:15,680 Speaker 1: But I digress. 68 00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:21,159 Speaker 2: I'm even hearing James Harden's name bannite about. We'll talk 69 00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:25,640 Speaker 2: about this with Mark Mdeen at midnight. But according to 70 00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:30,640 Speaker 2: Rich Paul. Paul told ESPN on Saturday that Lebron's fairly 71 00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:33,359 Speaker 2: adamant about exuding all efforts to improve the roster, and 72 00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:39,159 Speaker 2: he is prioritizing a roster improvement now. The last time 73 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:41,960 Speaker 2: Lebron was a free agent, that was twenty eighteen, he 74 00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:44,360 Speaker 2: joined the Lakers. He got a four year, one hundred 75 00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:47,599 Speaker 2: and fifty four million dollar deal, and then in twenty 76 00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:50,320 Speaker 2: twenty two, he signed a two year, ninety eight million 77 00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:53,599 Speaker 2: dollar deal which included the player option for the upcoming season, 78 00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:57,640 Speaker 2: which he's now opted out of. And now again, Lebron 79 00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:00,679 Speaker 2: is eligible to sign a three year, hundred and sixty 80 00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:04,000 Speaker 2: two million dollars MAX contract to return to the Lakers 81 00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:07,160 Speaker 2: because he's not a free agent, but he's also eligible 82 00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:09,520 Speaker 2: to sign with any other team in the NBA for 83 00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:11,440 Speaker 2: a maximum one to fifty seven to five over the 84 00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:14,800 Speaker 2: next three seasons. Yeah, that's simply not gonna happen. Okay, 85 00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:20,120 Speaker 2: let's not be silly. He's going nowhere. By the way, 86 00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:24,880 Speaker 2: Lebron turns forty this year, and the NBA limits contracts 87 00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:26,920 Speaker 2: for players over thirty eight years old to three year 88 00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:30,279 Speaker 2: maximums now. Lebron currently, as you know, the oldest active 89 00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:34,440 Speaker 2: player in the NBA, and frankly, on any given night, 90 00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:36,719 Speaker 2: he shows no signs of slowing down. Not a great 91 00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:39,080 Speaker 2: defender anymore, but give it up. I mean, he averaged 92 00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:42,160 Speaker 2: almost twenty six points a game this year, eight assists, 93 00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:46,240 Speaker 2: seven rebounds. All NBA Third Team got the Lakers into 94 00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:49,200 Speaker 2: the play in tournament, got a number seven seed. They 95 00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 2: battled Denver but lost. They lost to the better team. 96 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:56,520 Speaker 2: And Lebron has always said that he wanted to retire 97 00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:58,039 Speaker 2: as a Laker. At least he said it, you know, 98 00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:00,599 Speaker 2: at the All Star weekend back in February. He says, quote, 99 00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:02,160 Speaker 2: I'm a Laker. I'm very happy being a Laker in 100 00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:04,520 Speaker 2: the last six years, and hopefully it stays that, we mean, 101 00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:07,480 Speaker 2: hopefully you can do whatever you want. He's gonna stay 102 00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:09,840 Speaker 2: as a Laker, especially since his son was just drafted 103 00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:15,920 Speaker 2: the other day. But here's what's interesting. If Lebron does 104 00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:18,920 Speaker 2: take less and people have done this, Tom Brady, im 105 00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:20,799 Speaker 2: sure did it, Darren Rodgers did it. I think Patrick 106 00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:22,640 Speaker 2: Mahomes did it the way he structured his contract a 107 00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:30,760 Speaker 2: few years ago. And really the only other team, if 108 00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:33,560 Speaker 2: you really want to get silly about this, that is, 109 00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:36,839 Speaker 2: in theory, a championship could tender. I put that in 110 00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:41,680 Speaker 2: air quotes with maximum salary cap space are the Philadelphia 111 00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:45,480 Speaker 2: seventy six ers. In theory, James could also orchestrate a 112 00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:48,760 Speaker 2: sign and trade deal, or he could go anywhere he 113 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:51,760 Speaker 2: wants for as little as a veteran minimum. But that 114 00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:55,600 Speaker 2: ain't gonna happen. He ain't going to Phoenix. He's not 115 00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:58,240 Speaker 2: going to Philadelphia. He's gonna stay with the Lakers. And 116 00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:04,800 Speaker 2: the question remains is is this flirtation with perhaps showing 117 00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:07,599 Speaker 2: that they might really be focused on actually really wanting 118 00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:12,720 Speaker 2: to win, because don't tell me, show me. But at 119 00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:15,480 Speaker 2: the very least, it appears Lebron will take some sort 120 00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:18,040 Speaker 2: of a pay cut for the twenty four to twenty 121 00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:22,120 Speaker 2: five season. The maximum salary he could receive a fifty 122 00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:24,200 Speaker 2: is a million and a half lesson was his option. 123 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 2: Becoming a free agent, he can now negotiate a no 124 00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:31,320 Speaker 2: trade clause and maybe even secure a longer term. The 125 00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:34,760 Speaker 2: bottom line is this, this is all speculation. The Lakers 126 00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:35,800 Speaker 2: just hired as Buddy J. J. 127 00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:36,320 Speaker 1: Reddick. 128 00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:39,440 Speaker 2: He's got a four year contract. They just drafted Brownie. 129 00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:41,800 Speaker 2: The theory is Lebron might have an extra bounce in 130 00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:44,560 Speaker 2: his step and if he is willing to take less 131 00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:49,040 Speaker 2: money to get another player that would be deemed an 132 00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:53,080 Speaker 2: impact player, that only makes this upcoming season and the 133 00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:56,440 Speaker 2: storylines that are going to revolve around a coach who's 134 00:07:56,480 --> 00:08:01,160 Speaker 2: never coached and a son who's was a backup player 135 00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:03,440 Speaker 2: at USC for a team that win eight and twelve. Look, 136 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:06,920 Speaker 2: the storylines are going to right themselves, but should somehow 137 00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:11,600 Speaker 2: the Lakers contend, it makes the storylines even better. Now, 138 00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:13,680 Speaker 2: at the end of the day, do I really think 139 00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:17,800 Speaker 2: Lebron's gonna take substantially less money and they're really going 140 00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:20,080 Speaker 2: to get an impact player that's going to close the 141 00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:23,200 Speaker 2: gap between the Lakers in Denver or the Lakers in 142 00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:27,880 Speaker 2: Dallas or OKC or Minnesota. And you know, let's not 143 00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:30,640 Speaker 2: forget Golden State didn't going anywhere. They're going to be 144 00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:33,439 Speaker 2: a challenge. Phoenix will always be a challenge. The West 145 00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:37,559 Speaker 2: is getting ever more crowded. So at the end of 146 00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:40,160 Speaker 2: the day, will all of this really manifest itself in 147 00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:44,520 Speaker 2: a way it will create the Lakers, create an opportunity 148 00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:48,520 Speaker 2: where the Lakers actually become a more viable contender for 149 00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:52,000 Speaker 2: an actual championship. Do I really think at the end 150 00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:56,960 Speaker 2: of the day Lebron will really take significantly less money 151 00:08:57,160 --> 00:08:59,440 Speaker 2: to go out and find that additional player to bolster 152 00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:01,840 Speaker 2: the roster to support not just him but Anthony Davis. 153 00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:05,160 Speaker 1: Hell no, it's not gonna happen, but. 154 00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:08,880 Speaker 2: It's fun to talk about. Yeah, coming up, we bring 155 00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:12,680 Speaker 2: in Jason Hershorn or in NFL GHO, it's time to 156 00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:14,839 Speaker 2: talk to NFL.

What 196 00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:11,480 Speaker 2: that means, I'm not quite sure, although we know Jerry 197 00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:14,920 Speaker 2: likes to meddle, but he's in a contract year. Dak's 198 00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:18,439 Speaker 2: in a contract year. Do you think these things start 199 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:22,760 Speaker 2: to sort themselves out before opening kickoff in September? Or 200 00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:25,040 Speaker 2: is there real trouble in paradise in Dallas. 201 00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:28,959 Speaker 4: Well, in terms of the contract, I don't know how much, 202 00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:31,800 Speaker 4: if anything, is going to be quote unquote sorted out 203 00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:35,000 Speaker 4: prior to the start of the regular season. There is 204 00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:37,720 Speaker 4: a scenario where I suppose they can get a deal 205 00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:39,960 Speaker 4: done for let' say see the lamps one of their 206 00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:43,320 Speaker 4: core players, who's young and therefore is likely to survive 207 00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:47,400 Speaker 4: whatever change could happen next offseason. But Dak Prescott seems 208 00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:51,000 Speaker 4: like they're very comfortable going into the final year of 209 00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:55,000 Speaker 4: his contract. Sorry that next year. Whether that's like Walks 210 00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:58,320 Speaker 4: because they can't franchise dag In signed to a meal deal, whatever, 211 00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:00,840 Speaker 4: that is, same thing with the head coach. It does 212 00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:03,559 Speaker 4: appear as though everything in Dallas is going to be 213 00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:06,120 Speaker 4: predicated on the success or failure of the twenty twenty 214 00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:07,080 Speaker 4: four seasons. 215 00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:09,760 Speaker 2: Now, that's well said, and what's interesting is it's in 216 00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:13,319 Speaker 2: a state of flux. So my understanding that Prescott's current 217 00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:16,600 Speaker 2: contract carries a capit of over fifty five million for 218 00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:19,040 Speaker 2: twenty twenty four, so it would be wove the Coleboys 219 00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:21,800 Speaker 2: to sort anything out before the season starts. In three 220 00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:25,280 Speaker 2: weeks ago, they claimed they were all in on Prescott, 221 00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:27,760 Speaker 2: even though they're not fully committed. It seems like a 222 00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:29,520 Speaker 2: real deletma. I know, didn't want to go back to 223 00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:32,319 Speaker 2: the you know, the the Quincy Carter Drew Henson years. 224 00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:37,120 Speaker 2: But Prescott can't win in the playoffs. What percentage chance 225 00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:40,400 Speaker 2: do you give Dallas of actually signing Dack to something 226 00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:42,160 Speaker 2: before the season starts. 227 00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:46,160 Speaker 4: I don't think it's very high. I'm not saying the 228 00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:49,520 Speaker 4: chance is zero, but it's not a situation like we 229 00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:52,599 Speaker 4: see with the Miami Dolphins into a tongue of a 230 00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:55,680 Speaker 4: loo or the Gregady Packers and Jordan Love. Both of 231 00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:59,880 Speaker 4: those teams have actively worked towards a long term deal. 232 00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:03,199 Speaker 4: Now with the Cowboys, Dak Prescott is not as pure 233 00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:06,120 Speaker 4: as though they are particularly serious about doing so right now, 234 00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:08,880 Speaker 4: because you know, this is a team, as you put it, 235 00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:11,720 Speaker 4: they have not had that success in the playoffs that 236 00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:13,800 Speaker 4: they wanted. They shall have not been back to the 237 00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:17,839 Speaker 4: NFC title game since the nineties, So they may very 238 00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:19,880 Speaker 4: well go down the route of the Minnesota Viking, through 239 00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:22,840 Speaker 4: which I mean they have a quarterback that they think 240 00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:25,640 Speaker 4: is really good, someone that they can win with, but 241 00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:29,320 Speaker 4: has not had that success in the playoffs ultimately, and 242 00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:31,960 Speaker 4: they just finally hit the reboot buttons there, and in 243 00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:33,880 Speaker 4: the case of the Cowboys, hit the reboot button as 244 00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:36,840 Speaker 4: a head coach as well. If they don't see that success, 245 00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:40,800 Speaker 4: it really looks like their success and failures this season 246 00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:43,040 Speaker 4: is going to determine a lot of those players and 247 00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:45,680 Speaker 4: coaches decisions next offseasons. 248 00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:48,720 Speaker 2: So the Lions took care of Jared Goff. I'm glad 249 00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:53,240 Speaker 2: you mentioned Tua. They're obviously observing that in Miami. What 250 00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:55,400 Speaker 2: happens with TWOA and the Dolphins are they're going to 251 00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:57,400 Speaker 2: be able to reach a happy medium, because I don't 252 00:13:57,400 --> 00:13:59,040 Speaker 2: feel like the Dolphins are ready to give to a 253 00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:00,240 Speaker 2: fifty three million dollars. 254 00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:05,200 Speaker 4: I mean, it's entirely possible that they have to, right like, 255 00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:09,000 Speaker 4: even if they don't want to. That is effectively the 256 00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:12,959 Speaker 4: market value for a veteran contract playing at or around 257 00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:15,520 Speaker 4: that level at this point. You know, it's the same 258 00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:17,319 Speaker 4: thing with the Green Bay Packers. Jordan Love maybe A 259 00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:20,400 Speaker 4: entered the offen expecting to pay something between let's say 260 00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:24,120 Speaker 4: forty five million annually to fifty million annually, but the 261 00:14:24,160 --> 00:14:26,800 Speaker 4: market has moved. You know, Trevor Lawrence is also signed 262 00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:30,000 Speaker 4: a big deal, and those agents are very aware of 263 00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:32,160 Speaker 4: those deals. But the way the contracts work in the 264 00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:35,440 Speaker 4: NFL is credited how the market has moved over the 265 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:38,760 Speaker 4: last few seasons at that position. So in the case 266 00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:41,960 Speaker 4: of the Dolphins, they have signaled for a while that 267 00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:45,000 Speaker 4: they intend to extend through a tongue of ala. I 268 00:14:45,040 --> 00:14:47,720 Speaker 4: don't think it's that likely that we get too week 269 00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:50,920 Speaker 4: one and he doesn't have that extension. The money there 270 00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:53,240 Speaker 4: is a little more of a question than it is 271 00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:55,600 Speaker 4: for a player like Jordan loves the Packers. It seems 272 00:14:55,640 --> 00:14:58,880 Speaker 4: like they really have most of the frames that deal 273 00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:00,800 Speaker 4: in place, just a matter of strung sure, and they're 274 00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:04,080 Speaker 4: still working on that component that's for those deals how 275 00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:06,720 Speaker 4: whatever form they take to get done, not just prior 276 00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:08,120 Speaker 4: a week one. But I wouldn't be surprised that they're 277 00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:10,360 Speaker 4: both locked in prior to training camps. 278 00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:12,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, these guys don't grow on trees. It can be 279 00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:16,480 Speaker 2: a real dilemma. We're talking with Jason Hershorn, Award winning 280 00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:19,960 Speaker 2: NFL college football writer. He's been with NFL dot coms, 281 00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:22,320 Speaker 2: be Nation, Sports Illustrated, co founder of the Leap of 282 00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:27,120 Speaker 2: Packers newsletter. What's happening with Brandon Ayuka? The forty nine 283 00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:28,760 Speaker 2: Ers wasn't long ago he said he wanted to be 284 00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:30,560 Speaker 2: a forty nine Er for life, and now I'm hearing 285 00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:33,960 Speaker 2: he's mentioned the Steelers as a potential landing spot. What's 286 00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:34,600 Speaker 2: happening there? 287 00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:38,400 Speaker 4: Well, what's happening there is he and his agent are 288 00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:40,760 Speaker 4: also aware how the market has moved. You know, they've 289 00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:44,720 Speaker 4: seen that Justin Jefferson contract. Now brand Ayu' is not 290 00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:49,480 Speaker 4: justin Jefferson, but the market has moved top receivers into 291 00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:52,280 Speaker 4: the high end of the twenty million dollars per year 292 00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:55,880 Speaker 4: to thirty million dollars per year area. And Brandon Auk 293 00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:59,520 Speaker 4: is just coming off a fantastic season and it's over right, 294 00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:02,480 Speaker 4: so he has this leverage. He knows it. You want 295 00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:05,360 Speaker 4: to lock in the biggest deal for himself possible, and 296 00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:07,720 Speaker 4: he's not willing to take a hometown discount. This is, 297 00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:10,520 Speaker 4: by the way, also the case of some degree with CD, 298 00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:13,640 Speaker 4: Lamb and Dallas. All of these top receivers who are 299 00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:16,760 Speaker 4: currently going into a contract year or in some cases 300 00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:18,760 Speaker 4: are playing on like a franchise that that's just the 301 00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:19,760 Speaker 4: situation for them. 302 00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:20,320 Speaker 2: Now. 303 00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:23,200 Speaker 4: The forty nine ers still have enough levers to force 304 00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:25,040 Speaker 4: him to play for them this year. I think one 305 00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:28,440 Speaker 4: way or another that happens. Dox Ceedee Lamb or Brandon 306 00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:31,360 Speaker 4: Nyuk is going to sit out the twenty twenty fourth 307 00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:33,720 Speaker 4: season because he doesn't get the contract he wants. But 308 00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:36,480 Speaker 4: it's a bit of a pimple for them. If they 309 00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:40,680 Speaker 4: do pay Brandon Ayuk, then next offseason, there's going to 310 00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:42,720 Speaker 4: be a reckoning with some of the other players because 311 00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:44,520 Speaker 4: of the salary cap. You know it could it be 312 00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:47,280 Speaker 4: Deebo Saguals last season with the team if that happens. 313 00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:51,280 Speaker 4: Could it be maybe George Kittles last season if that happens. 314 00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:54,600 Speaker 4: These are all really really good players and players that 315 00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:57,560 Speaker 4: that team relies upon. But at a certain point you 316 00:16:57,640 --> 00:17:00,320 Speaker 4: have to make decisions one over the other based on 317 00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:03,240 Speaker 4: the numbers in those contracts. Brandon Ayuk is younger than 318 00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:06,480 Speaker 4: those guys. That's your injuries lately than those guys. So 319 00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:09,560 Speaker 4: if he gets that money, then I do think that 320 00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:12,639 Speaker 4: one of the other big, big names in San Francisco 321 00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:14,920 Speaker 4: is not going to be there in twenty twenty five. 322 00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:18,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, you said that, Well, it's going to be hard 323 00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:22,440 Speaker 2: to imagine that San Francisco is able to retain all 324 00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:27,280 Speaker 2: of this capital. Recently, you compared himself to Lamborghini, and 325 00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:29,080 Speaker 2: you are right. You have a spectacular year and they're 326 00:17:29,080 --> 00:17:31,200 Speaker 2: bet with him. On the field, he told the Niners, 327 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:33,920 Speaker 2: if you can't afford a Lamborghini, you can't have one. Now, 328 00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:37,080 Speaker 2: to be clear, it's my understanding he has a fourteen 329 00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:40,480 Speaker 2: Brandon Ayuk a still on a contract a club option 330 00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:43,200 Speaker 2: will be big fourteen million this year, and then he 331 00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:46,840 Speaker 2: can hit unrestricted free agency after this year. But if 332 00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:49,040 Speaker 2: he's not paid going into the season, you think Brandon 333 00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:51,240 Speaker 2: Auk is able to put that behind him go out 334 00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:53,080 Speaker 2: have a good year or is that going to linger? 335 00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:57,440 Speaker 4: Well, it's very basically incentivized to put together the best 336 00:17:57,440 --> 00:17:59,760 Speaker 4: performance he can. I fit the contract year right, because 337 00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:02,159 Speaker 4: even it's the forty nine Ers, let's say, are not 338 00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:04,440 Speaker 4: going to retain him after the twenty twenty four season 339 00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:08,040 Speaker 4: for whatever reason. If he's coming off of the spectacular year, 340 00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:11,159 Speaker 4: he's going to get all the money in free agency, right. 341 00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:14,040 Speaker 4: He doesn't have to be the best player of his position, 342 00:18:14,359 --> 00:18:18,040 Speaker 4: has the most leveraged at his position. If that happens, 343 00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:20,480 Speaker 4: he's still going to get paid, whether it's the Steelers, 344 00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:23,239 Speaker 4: which he's kind of signaled, or some other team that 345 00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:26,160 Speaker 4: needs a wide receiver next offseason. So I don't think 346 00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:27,720 Speaker 4: that that part is going to be an issue. We've 347 00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:31,439 Speaker 4: seen contract your status push players to new territory before, 348 00:18:31,560 --> 00:18:34,160 Speaker 4: so help permitting I affect a good year from him 349 00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:37,160 Speaker 4: if he's going to play out his current contract, I. 350 00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:41,480 Speaker 2: Want to jump to Pittsburgh. I like Justin Fields. I 351 00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:44,200 Speaker 2: don't think he's a major league quarterback. The numbers bear 352 00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:48,399 Speaker 2: that out, and I understand in Pittsburgh he'll make a 353 00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:50,679 Speaker 2: throw that people say, cheese. His kid's got a Hall 354 00:18:50,720 --> 00:18:53,119 Speaker 2: of Fame arm, and then the next will be, oh, 355 00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:55,320 Speaker 2: now we know why he's ten and twenty eight and 356 00:18:55,320 --> 00:18:57,560 Speaker 2: he completes, you know, fifty one percent of his passes. 357 00:18:58,000 --> 00:18:59,920 Speaker 2: He's just going to work out in Pittsburgh with Justin 358 00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:02,639 Speaker 2: Fields because it feels like the gravit at Straws. 359 00:19:04,440 --> 00:19:08,080 Speaker 4: The answer is probably not, and in part because he's 360 00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:11,119 Speaker 4: not going into training camp at least as the starter 361 00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:14,560 Speaker 4: that appears to be Russell Wilson. Wilson has had success 362 00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:16,440 Speaker 4: in the past in offenses that are similar to the 363 00:19:16,480 --> 00:19:18,919 Speaker 4: one that they're going to run with Arthur Smith, the 364 00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:21,480 Speaker 4: new offensive coordinator there, so in that way he has 365 00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:25,080 Speaker 4: another advantage over Justin Field. So you put it, well, 366 00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:28,120 Speaker 4: Fields at his best can be one of the most 367 00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:31,720 Speaker 4: spectacular and exciting players in the NFL. The issue, of course, 368 00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:35,280 Speaker 4: has been he hasn't played that way consistently at any 369 00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:38,439 Speaker 4: point during his NFL career. So while he is still 370 00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:42,120 Speaker 4: very young, while he still has upside. And while there's 371 00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:45,000 Speaker 4: a reason that late into the twenty twenty three season 372 00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:47,800 Speaker 4: the Bears were still seriously considering keeping him, even knowing 373 00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:50,240 Speaker 4: that they could replace him in the NFL draft they wanted, 374 00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:52,840 Speaker 4: it is still the case that he is a tough 375 00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:54,639 Speaker 4: player to bet on over the course of this season 376 00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:57,480 Speaker 4: and over the long term. So, you know, unless something 377 00:19:57,520 --> 00:20:01,320 Speaker 4: happens to Russell Wilson as forces field into action, I 378 00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:03,240 Speaker 4: don't know that we're going to see him a lot, 379 00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:07,160 Speaker 4: at least early in the twenty twenty four season. And again, 380 00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:08,960 Speaker 4: it's gonna be hard to really get a feel for 381 00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:11,240 Speaker 4: what he can do in Pittsburgh if he's not on 382 00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:11,719 Speaker 4: the field. 383 00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:15,160 Speaker 2: That's extremely well said. All right, let's have a little 384 00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:19,520 Speaker 2: rapid fire. There are some notable NFL droughts that I'm 385 00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:23,240 Speaker 2: observing heading into twenty twenty four. Tell me which of 386 00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:27,200 Speaker 2: these you think is likely to have the drought broken. 387 00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:29,800 Speaker 2: So let's start with the New York Jets. Thirteen years 388 00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:33,520 Speaker 2: without a playoff appearance. We know their season got torpedo 389 00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:35,720 Speaker 2: last year when Rodgers went down. Did the Jets make 390 00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:36,600 Speaker 2: the playoffs this year? 391 00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:40,800 Speaker 4: I think yes, but I don't expect them to win 392 00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:43,520 Speaker 4: that mission. I think that would happen as a wildcard game. 393 00:20:45,080 --> 00:20:48,480 Speaker 2: The Atlanta Falcons have a similar drought, not nearly as bad. 394 00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:51,800 Speaker 2: It's been six years. They've made a lot of moves. 395 00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:54,959 Speaker 2: Now they got Kirk Cousins. So the Falcons find their 396 00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:56,480 Speaker 2: way back into the playoffs this year. 397 00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:01,480 Speaker 4: There's obviously a path for that. But picking the NFC 398 00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:07,159 Speaker 4: West or the NFC South brother has been so difficult 399 00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:09,520 Speaker 4: for a number of years, at least outside of those 400 00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:12,000 Speaker 4: Tom Brady seasons. They have a hard time betting on 401 00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:13,679 Speaker 4: any of those teams. I don't think any of them 402 00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:16,000 Speaker 4: are great. I think, even with the additional Kirk Cousins, 403 00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:18,960 Speaker 4: I sold a lot of questions about that defense, So 404 00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:21,320 Speaker 4: if I had to guess, I'd say no. But I 405 00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:23,040 Speaker 4: don't have a lot of confidence in any one of 406 00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:25,800 Speaker 4: those four teams in the nfcas. 407 00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:28,400 Speaker 2: I completely agree. I think one thing that does help Atlanta. 408 00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:31,320 Speaker 2: They have the easiest strength to schedule in the NFL 409 00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:33,720 Speaker 2: this year, and I think Marhee Morris can coach. I 410 00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:35,240 Speaker 2: think you're going to see an effort out of them, 411 00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:37,160 Speaker 2: But what you bring up a couple of good points, 412 00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:40,119 Speaker 2: there are some speed bumps, all right. The NFC East 413 00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:44,640 Speaker 2: has the distinction of twenty years since the last repeat 414 00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:47,760 Speaker 2: division winner. So if Dallas can finish the top the 415 00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:50,159 Speaker 2: NFC East this season, they'll become the first team to 416 00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:53,320 Speaker 2: repeat his champs and so forth. Does that drought get broken? 417 00:21:55,560 --> 00:21:59,600 Speaker 4: I would lean slightly toward yes. Eagles are going to 418 00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:04,439 Speaker 4: have a part of that conversation. But they're replacing the 419 00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:07,200 Speaker 4: coordinator in the playholler on both sides of the ball. 420 00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:10,920 Speaker 4: That's a pretty big transformation. In both cases. They still 421 00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:12,680 Speaker 4: have a lot of talent, you can stay on paper, 422 00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:16,320 Speaker 4: they have more overall roster talent than the Cowboys, but 423 00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:19,280 Speaker 4: there's more coming back in Dallas. They're able to figure 424 00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:21,720 Speaker 4: out some things offensively last seasons I think are going 425 00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:24,320 Speaker 4: to prove sticking to this season. So I'll give the 426 00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:26,679 Speaker 4: edge slightly to the Cowboys there. 427 00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:31,840 Speaker 2: Okay, fair enough, This one is a doozy. I think 428 00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:36,080 Speaker 2: the Miami Dolphins twenty three years since they playoff win 429 00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:38,640 Speaker 2: Now they've been with the playoffs, they just can't seem 430 00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:43,120 Speaker 2: to win a game. I feel like after consecutive playoff 431 00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:49,200 Speaker 2: appearances under Mike McDaniel, they do break this drought. Your thoughts, I. 432 00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:51,720 Speaker 4: Think they do too, right, Like I know They've lost 433 00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:55,120 Speaker 4: their last two playoff games, but that requires an important cave, 434 00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:59,159 Speaker 4: yet important context. The first of those they played with 435 00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:02,920 Speaker 4: a backup quarterback starting, and not just any back, a quarterback, 436 00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:05,399 Speaker 4: a seventh round rookie, and this of course was not 437 00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:08,360 Speaker 4: bros Hergi starting that game. So now when I think 438 00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:11,600 Speaker 4: you have to throw out last season, yes, they lost 439 00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:14,440 Speaker 4: the team in general law momentum going down to stretch. 440 00:23:14,840 --> 00:23:16,600 Speaker 4: But I do think they have the talent and I 441 00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:18,960 Speaker 4: do think they have the right people at the top 442 00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:21,080 Speaker 4: that they should be able to win a playoff game 443 00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:21,520 Speaker 4: this year. 444 00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:24,919 Speaker 2: You know, I'm glad you mentioned that two years ago, Jason, 445 00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:27,720 Speaker 2: because they gave Buffalo a real scare, which shows you 446 00:23:27,800 --> 00:23:31,440 Speaker 2: that Miami does have a lot of talent across the board. Finally, 447 00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:33,480 Speaker 2: a team near and dear to my heart because I 448 00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:36,600 Speaker 2: covered him for ten years, the Lions. They're one of 449 00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:39,480 Speaker 2: four NFL franchises that have never made it to a 450 00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:43,440 Speaker 2: Super Bowl. However, they're the closest I believe they've never 451 00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:46,400 Speaker 2: made a Super Bowl appearance in franchise history. We saw 452 00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:50,119 Speaker 2: what happened last year. They brought both their coordinators back. 453 00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:53,399 Speaker 2: I'm hearing good things out of Detroit This is a 454 00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:56,600 Speaker 2: bold one. Does Detroit finally make their first Super Bowl 455 00:23:56,600 --> 00:23:58,159 Speaker 2: appearance this upcoming season? 456 00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:02,200 Speaker 4: You highlighted one of the most important reasons to think 457 00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:04,960 Speaker 4: that they could. Ben Johnson, the officip coordinator, did not 458 00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:08,080 Speaker 4: leave for our head coaching position. That's such a crucial 459 00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:11,000 Speaker 4: piece to their offense, in particular getting what he's done. 460 00:24:11,280 --> 00:24:14,359 Speaker 4: And even with that, I think the answer is no. 461 00:24:14,560 --> 00:24:18,520 Speaker 4: And I actually don't expect the Lions to win their 462 00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:20,080 Speaker 4: division this season. I think they're going to be the 463 00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:22,239 Speaker 4: last Mink. They're going to be competitive, but it's just 464 00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:25,639 Speaker 4: so hard to maintain that kind of success year to 465 00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:28,359 Speaker 4: year when you do not have an elite quarterback. And 466 00:24:28,440 --> 00:24:31,320 Speaker 4: Jared goff Law has played very, very well the last 467 00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:34,240 Speaker 4: few years. I just don't think he's that player. So 468 00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:35,280 Speaker 4: again I'm going to say no. 469 00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:38,600 Speaker 2: You know, I feel like the Green Bay Packers. I 470 00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:42,119 Speaker 2: think you're pretty pluged in there. They look scary to me. 471 00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:45,240 Speaker 2: Am I wrong, Yeah. 472 00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:47,399 Speaker 4: I think. I mean that's the obvious other team to 473 00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:49,360 Speaker 4: win that division if it was going to go that way. 474 00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:52,480 Speaker 4: The offense had a lot going well for them down 475 00:24:52,520 --> 00:24:55,119 Speaker 4: to stretch last season, which means a lot considering that 476 00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:58,640 Speaker 4: that was the youngest group of pass catchers in modern 477 00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:02,359 Speaker 4: NFL history, So they could be that effective with that 478 00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:04,600 Speaker 4: young of a group with a first year starting quarterback 479 00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:06,760 Speaker 4: and a defense that's for the majority of the season 480 00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:11,719 Speaker 4: was unable to stop the life of the Carolina Panthers. 481 00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:14,040 Speaker 4: And now they have a new defensive coordinator, They've brought 482 00:25:14,040 --> 00:25:16,240 Speaker 4: in some more defensive talent there. Even if that defense 483 00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:19,240 Speaker 4: is only the back end of the middle, that team 484 00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:22,760 Speaker 4: should be equipped to win that division and make another 485 00:25:22,880 --> 00:25:25,879 Speaker 4: big playoff run. So that's the team of that division 486 00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:27,879 Speaker 4: that I think is most scared to the rest of 487 00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:30,720 Speaker 4: the conference. There's variables there, obviously, the chance that Jordan 488 00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:33,560 Speaker 4: Love could backtrack in some way in year two because 489 00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:36,000 Speaker 4: the sample size is small, But I think he's the 490 00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:38,080 Speaker 4: right guy. I think they have the right head coach. 491 00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:41,040 Speaker 4: I think the defense pretty much can only get better, 492 00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:44,080 Speaker 4: and if those things happen, I expect them to be 493 00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:45,359 Speaker 4: very competitive this season. 494 00:25:45,600 --> 00:25:49,600 Speaker 2: Absolutely, Hey, Jason, great stuff as Olle.

And 500 00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:09,200 Speaker 2: there are a lot of really interesting storylines and I'm 501 00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:12,399 Speaker 2: going to visit revisit some of these later in the show. 502 00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:15,400 Speaker 2: It's upon us. I mean, when you wake up Monday morning, 503 00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:18,240 Speaker 2: it'll be July first, and your attention is simply going 504 00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:21,080 Speaker 2: to turn to the NFL, and we are here for it. 505 00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:25,480 Speaker 2: It's going to be a sensational season. I believe another 506 00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:28,720 Speaker 2: story in the news involving a former number one pick, 507 00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:32,760 Speaker 2: and you might charcole, you might laugh, but at the 508 00:26:32,840 --> 00:26:36,000 Speaker 2: end of the day, it's really not funny. I'll share 509 00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:37,959 Speaker 2: with you coming up. But first let's go to our guy, 510 00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:39,480 Speaker 2: Kevin Warren, the chef. 511 00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:42,800 Speaker 6: Yeah, Bernie. About an hour or so ago, a late 512 00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:46,159 Speaker 6: piece of an NBA news sham Sharania saying that Bulls 513 00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:49,880 Speaker 6: forward Patrick Williams intends to sign a five year, ninety 514 00:26:49,880 --> 00:26:56,000 Speaker 6: million dollars deal to return to Chicago this season. And 515 00:26:56,080 --> 00:26:59,120 Speaker 6: in Major League Baseball, we had the Dodgers Giants game 516 00:26:59,119 --> 00:27:01,600 Speaker 6: and went. It was a walk off win last night 517 00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:05,200 Speaker 6: for the San Francisco Giants, as Brett Wiseley had a 518 00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:08,439 Speaker 6: two run home run. Tonight, it went to eleven innings, 519 00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:11,480 Speaker 6: where the Dodgers eventually do win it fourteen to seven. 520 00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:14,280 Speaker 6: Shoey Otani with his twenty six home run la exploding 521 00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:18,720 Speaker 6: for seven runs in that top of the eleventh inning. 522 00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:21,800 Speaker 6: Elsewhere in Major League Baseball, Braves over the Pirates two 523 00:27:21,800 --> 00:27:26,360 Speaker 6: to one. Paul skeins another outstanding start. He did take 524 00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:31,080 Speaker 6: the no decision, but otherwise went six innings, had nine strikeouts, 525 00:27:31,080 --> 00:27:34,080 Speaker 6: still allow six hits, but nine strikeouts and two walks 526 00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:37,960 Speaker 6: in his el so far in his outstanding rookie season 527 00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:42,560 Speaker 6: right now stands at two point zero six. Elsewhere in 528 00:27:42,600 --> 00:27:44,439 Speaker 6: Major League Baseball, the Lla Angels don't look now. 529 00:27:44,440 --> 00:27:44,959 Speaker 7: They're on a roll. 530 00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:46,960 Speaker 6: They've won their six game in a row, this time 531 00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:49,800 Speaker 6: in extra innings against the Detroit Tigers six ' five. 532 00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:53,960 Speaker 6: The Minnesota Twins over the Seattle Mariners five to one. 533 00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:57,720 Speaker 6: The defending champion Texas Rangers. They're slumping right now. They've 534 00:27:57,760 --> 00:28:00,920 Speaker 6: dropped six straight. After the Orioles win, It's six ' five. 535 00:28:01,040 --> 00:28:03,320 Speaker 6: Corey Sieger did have to leave the game after being 536 00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:06,080 Speaker 6: hit by a pitch on his left wrist, and initial 537 00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:10,399 Speaker 6: X rays were negative. However, the risk is swollen. The 538 00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:13,400 Speaker 6: San Diego Padre is also red hot right now. They've 539 00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:15,920 Speaker 6: won five in a row. They win eleven to one 540 00:28:16,040 --> 00:28:20,000 Speaker 6: at Boston as Manny Machado two home runs five runs 541 00:28:20,040 --> 00:28:23,040 Speaker 6: batted in for the game Blue Jays over the Yankees 542 00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:25,040 Speaker 6: nine to three. One So did not play due to 543 00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:27,960 Speaker 6: a bruised hand. Vatimir Gerrow Junior one home run, six 544 00:28:28,119 --> 00:28:34,840 Speaker 6: RBIs for the Blue Jays and in Copa America Argentina 545 00:28:35,040 --> 00:28:38,920 Speaker 6: three to zero after they beat Peru to nil in 546 00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:42,040 Speaker 6: Miami in front of sixty five thousand fans, Lionel Messi 547 00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:44,120 Speaker 6: did not play due to a growing injury. Tou Le 548 00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:49,600 Speaker 6: was eliminated after they drew against Canada nil nil rounded sixteen. 549 00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:52,880 Speaker 6: At the Euros, Germany shutout Denmark two nil. There's are 550 00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:54,800 Speaker 6: weather delay of more than twenty minutes late in the 551 00:28:54,800 --> 00:28:58,160 Speaker 6: first half, but the game eventually was finished. Switzerland did 552 00:28:58,160 --> 00:29:02,160 Speaker 6: eliminate Italy to nil, and Fox will carry both of 553 00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:04,920 Speaker 6: Sunday's games from Europe back to Bernie. 554 00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:09,200 Speaker 2: All right, Jef, warm up those vocal cords. Man be 555 00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:12,840 Speaker 2: one thirty before you know it, all right, So many 556 00:29:12,880 --> 00:29:16,800 Speaker 2: many moons Ago Lsu had a phenomenal quarterback. He won 557 00:29:16,840 --> 00:29:20,440 Speaker 2: a national championship, and this guy just did about everything 558 00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:24,240 Speaker 2: except sel popcorn and he went on. Al Davis was 559 00:29:24,360 --> 00:29:29,320 Speaker 2: enamored with him, drafted him number one, and what a 560 00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:32,360 Speaker 2: turn his life has taken over the past couple of decades. 561 00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:35,440 Speaker 2: He will always go down as having been an NFL 562 00:29:35,480 --> 00:29:37,280 Speaker 2: bus but that doesn't mean his life has to be 563 00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:41,280 Speaker 2: a bust. But when you consider what happened to JaMarcus 564 00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:45,360 Speaker 2: Russell this past week, I don't know how you're fired 565 00:29:45,400 --> 00:29:50,880 Speaker 2: as a volunteer assistant coach when you're doing pro bono 566 00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:54,600 Speaker 2: work for your former high school, your alma mater, Williamson 567 00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:57,440 Speaker 2: High School in Mobile, Alabama. And I don't know how 568 00:29:57,480 --> 00:29:59,680 Speaker 2: you parlay it at end to being on the wrong 569 00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:02,720 Speaker 2: end of a lawsuit. But it might have something to 570 00:30:02,760 --> 00:30:07,880 Speaker 2: do with fundraising. And it turns out that JaMarcus Russell, 571 00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:11,120 Speaker 2: who again has been a volunteer assistant coach at his 572 00:30:11,200 --> 00:30:14,360 Speaker 2: old high school in Boby, Alabama, went on a little 573 00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:19,840 Speaker 2: fundraising venture and he found a local business owner who 574 00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:22,000 Speaker 2: was generous enough with his large SS, a gentleman by 575 00:30:22,040 --> 00:30:24,880 Speaker 2: the name of Chris Knowles, who decided he would donate 576 00:30:25,480 --> 00:30:29,920 Speaker 2: seventy four thousand dollars to the school and it was 577 00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:33,640 Speaker 2: all because JaMarcus Russell, hometown hero, approached him about a 578 00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:37,280 Speaker 2: donation to help the Williamson football team purchased weight room equipment. 579 00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:40,440 Speaker 2: All good, right, Unfortunately, the school never got the check 580 00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:47,320 Speaker 2: and allegedly JaMarcus Russell deposited the money in a credit 581 00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:54,320 Speaker 2: union and then shortly after depositing the money, he threw 582 00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:58,320 Speaker 2: fifty five thousand dollars of it. I think the rules 583 00:30:58,360 --> 00:31:02,040 Speaker 2: frown upon that. That's to my not college. So in 584 00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:04,440 Speaker 2: addition to being fired as a coach again, I don't 585 00:31:04,440 --> 00:31:07,640 Speaker 2: know how the hell you're fired as a volunteer assistant, 586 00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:12,320 Speaker 2: but it happened. They told JaMarcus Russell, you're not welcome 587 00:31:12,360 --> 00:31:14,560 Speaker 2: here anymore, not up in here. You're not allowed to 588 00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:17,680 Speaker 2: be on campus. That was a statement from the Mobile 589 00:31:17,800 --> 00:31:23,840 Speaker 2: County check that mobile Mobile Alabama County Public School officials. However, 590 00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:28,480 Speaker 2: JaMarcus Russell apparently ignored the memo or didn't get the 591 00:31:28,480 --> 00:31:30,880 Speaker 2: memo because he decided he was beIN a tenant event 592 00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:33,720 Speaker 2: for the football team this past week, in which again 593 00:31:33,760 --> 00:31:37,720 Speaker 2: he was told he was not welcome now. Earlier in 594 00:31:37,760 --> 00:31:40,280 Speaker 2: the week, it was reiterated to JaMarcus Russell he's not 595 00:31:40,320 --> 00:31:42,720 Speaker 2: only not permitted to be around the football program or 596 00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:46,640 Speaker 2: around the school campus. But don't even think about it, right, 597 00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:49,720 Speaker 2: he's thirty eight years old now. He was a star 598 00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:51,920 Speaker 2: at Williamson High School. He went to LSU. He threw 599 00:31:51,960 --> 00:31:58,040 Speaker 2: for almost seven thousand yards fifty two touchdowns, and again, 600 00:31:58,080 --> 00:32:00,800 Speaker 2: he was the first pick in the two thousand and 601 00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:04,080 Speaker 2: seven NFL Draft by the Raiders. Actually started twenty five 602 00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:08,000 Speaker 2: games for the Raiders over three season, and his career 603 00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:13,320 Speaker 2: not great. Eighteen touchdowns, twenty three interceptions, fifty two percent 604 00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:19,680 Speaker 2: completion rate. And you cannot not mention JaMarcus Russell without 605 00:32:21,400 --> 00:32:23,960 Speaker 2: the moniker attaching to his name that he's perhaps the 606 00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:28,719 Speaker 2: biggest NFL draft bust because of the incredible expectations. I mean, 607 00:32:28,760 --> 00:32:30,920 Speaker 2: he was a package. And oh, by the way, I 608 00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:34,920 Speaker 2: know you're wondering how much money did JaMarcus Russell make 609 00:32:35,160 --> 00:32:39,160 Speaker 2: during his short NFL career. Oh nothing, thirty six point 610 00:32:39,240 --> 00:32:43,800 Speaker 2: four million. Where is that money now? I don't know, 611 00:32:44,600 --> 00:32:49,440 Speaker 2: and I'm guessing JaMarcus Russell doesn't know either. How the 612 00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:52,880 Speaker 2: mighty have fallen. Sometimes the greatest will just like the 613 00:32:52,880 --> 00:32:56,880 Speaker 2: rest of us, sometimes blessed, sometimes curse. But these self 614 00:32:56,880 --> 00:33:00,440 Speaker 2: inflicted wounds seem to be stacking up. Will follow the story. 615 00:33:00,440 --> 00:33:02,520 Speaker 2: I'm not sure where it goes. Not the kind of 616 00:33:02,520 --> 00:33:05,080 Speaker 2: pleasant story you want to tell, but you have to 617 00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:07,640 Speaker 2: because JaMarcus Russell at the one time was on top 618 00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:12,360 Speaker 2: of the mountain coming up. I really want to give 619 00:33:12,400 --> 00:33:17,200 Speaker 2: a guy by the name of Leon Rose his flowers. Now, 620 00:33:17,440 --> 00:33:20,920 Speaker 2: certain people, I guarantee you are good, buddy, Jason Smith. 621 00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:24,640 Speaker 2: You hear him Monday through Friday from seven to eleven 622 00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:27,680 Speaker 2: on these airwaves with Mike Carmon. 623 00:33:28,440 --> 00:33:29,760 Speaker 1: He knows who Leon Rose is. 624 00:33:29,760 --> 00:33:31,600 Speaker 2: Well, I'm going to tell you who Leon Rose is, 625 00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:33,680 Speaker 2: and I'm gonna give him as flowers.

You know, for me, I think 640 00:34:16,760 --> 00:34:19,800 Speaker 2: it's an undeniable fact that Major League Baseball is simply 641 00:34:19,840 --> 00:34:22,279 Speaker 2: better when the Yankees are good and the Dodgers are good. 642 00:34:22,600 --> 00:34:25,600 Speaker 2: The NHL, it's better when the Montreal Canadians are good. 643 00:34:26,239 --> 00:34:32,040 Speaker 2: Just is. Certainly the NFL is better when marquee teams 644 00:34:32,360 --> 00:34:35,840 Speaker 2: are good and you know who they are. How about 645 00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:40,759 Speaker 2: the NBA, Well, Boston and Lakers are typically good, or 646 00:34:40,760 --> 00:34:43,239 Speaker 2: at least are in the conversation Knicks having won a 647 00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:45,640 Speaker 2: New York Knicks have not won a championship in fifty 648 00:34:45,640 --> 00:34:50,719 Speaker 2: one years. But when they're good and it's rocking and 649 00:34:50,840 --> 00:34:55,080 Speaker 2: rolling at Madison Square Garden, it's special. It's special. And 650 00:34:55,160 --> 00:34:57,799 Speaker 2: I promise you if the Knicks get to the NBA finals, well, 651 00:34:57,840 --> 00:34:59,720 Speaker 2: you know they came close with pat Riley in the nineties. 652 00:34:59,719 --> 00:35:01,960 Speaker 2: You know what happened with John Starts, and they couldn't 653 00:35:01,960 --> 00:35:05,200 Speaker 2: get past Michael Jordan. But I mentioned a gentleman by 654 00:35:05,200 --> 00:35:08,319 Speaker 2: the name of Leon Rose. Leon Rose has been around 655 00:35:08,360 --> 00:35:12,439 Speaker 2: a long time in the in the in the world 656 00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:16,400 Speaker 2: of basketball. He's an executive and attorney. He's a sports agent. 657 00:35:17,080 --> 00:35:20,000 Speaker 2: He represented a lot of big names, a lot of 658 00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:24,760 Speaker 2: big names. Jolian Biid, Carmelo, Anthony Lebron, James Alan, Iverson, 659 00:35:24,880 --> 00:35:29,560 Speaker 2: Rip Hamilton, lots of guys. The list is even a 660 00:35:29,560 --> 00:35:32,359 Speaker 2: lot much longer than that. Well, about four years ago, 661 00:35:32,560 --> 00:35:35,080 Speaker 2: Leon Rose was named president of the New York Knicks. 662 00:35:35,640 --> 00:35:41,759 Speaker 2: And here's where the story begins. When Leon Rose took 663 00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:45,160 Speaker 2: over the Knicks four years ago, this was his goal. 664 00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:51,000 Speaker 2: Hold on to the franchise's first round picks, acquire picks 665 00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:57,640 Speaker 2: from other teams, stockpile tradable contracts, and make it a 666 00:35:57,680 --> 00:36:02,680 Speaker 2: point to improve the roster after year. He has done 667 00:36:02,719 --> 00:36:07,600 Speaker 2: that in a way that deserves mentioned, and that's why 668 00:36:07,680 --> 00:36:12,160 Speaker 2: I'm mentioning it. This past week, the Brooklyn Nets and 669 00:36:12,239 --> 00:36:16,239 Speaker 2: the New York Knicks agreed to a trade that, for 670 00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:19,440 Speaker 2: my money, is just what the doctor ordered for the 671 00:36:19,480 --> 00:36:22,440 Speaker 2: New York Knicks. I don't know anybody need it. Didn't 672 00:36:22,480 --> 00:36:27,080 Speaker 2: think had the Knicks just stayed healthy, which they clearly 673 00:36:27,080 --> 00:36:29,400 Speaker 2: were not, they would have been in the Eastern Conference 674 00:36:29,440 --> 00:36:33,400 Speaker 2: Finals this past season, duking it out with the Boston Celtics. 675 00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:40,000 Speaker 2: So the Knicks acquired Michel Bridges from the Brooklyn Nets. 676 00:36:40,520 --> 00:36:43,319 Speaker 2: And I believe he is a star that the New 677 00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:48,320 Speaker 2: York Knicks need twenty points score and I'll tell you 678 00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:50,239 Speaker 2: what I'll get to his accolades. But if you look 679 00:36:50,239 --> 00:36:53,239 Speaker 2: at the deal and you see how it matches up 680 00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:57,000 Speaker 2: against what I just said with respect to what Leon 681 00:36:57,160 --> 00:37:01,480 Speaker 2: Rose's mission and charter was sent to package back to 682 00:37:01,520 --> 00:37:08,920 Speaker 2: Brooklyn that includes Bojohan Bogdanovic, four unprotected first round picks, 683 00:37:09,719 --> 00:37:13,400 Speaker 2: a twenty twenty five protected first rounder that actually belongs 684 00:37:13,880 --> 00:37:18,359 Speaker 2: to the Milwaukee Bucks, a twenty twenty eight first round 685 00:37:18,360 --> 00:37:21,800 Speaker 2: pick swap, and a twenty twenty six second round pick. Okay, 686 00:37:21,840 --> 00:37:24,960 Speaker 2: a bit of a haul, but look what they're getting 687 00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:28,600 Speaker 2: back New York. The Knicks are in win now mode. 688 00:37:28,800 --> 00:37:32,839 Speaker 2: Just keep your fingers crossed and stay healthy. New York 689 00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:37,440 Speaker 2: gets a star that if you just talk to anybody 690 00:37:37,440 --> 00:37:41,600 Speaker 2: in NBA circles, that this might be a real match 691 00:37:41,840 --> 00:37:47,399 Speaker 2: made in heaven. Michel Bridges joins a team that legitimately 692 00:37:47,560 --> 00:37:53,680 Speaker 2: genuinely has championship ambitions and championship capability that is not hyperbole. 693 00:37:54,440 --> 00:37:57,840 Speaker 2: They finished this past season with fifty wins, a number 694 00:37:57,840 --> 00:38:00,960 Speaker 2: two seed, They had a playoff run, they were one 695 00:38:01,080 --> 00:38:04,239 Speaker 2: victory short of the Eastern Conference Finals, and they were 696 00:38:04,280 --> 00:38:08,120 Speaker 2: a mass unit. They did not have their full roster. 697 00:38:08,440 --> 00:38:14,600 Speaker 2: They ran out of gas. So you tell me if 698 00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:17,240 Speaker 2: if they stay healthy, they're not on the short list 699 00:38:17,640 --> 00:38:21,480 Speaker 2: and likely to get to the Eastern Conference Finals last year. 700 00:38:21,520 --> 00:38:24,160 Speaker 2: Not only that, and here comes the angle of the 701 00:38:24,200 --> 00:38:29,800 Speaker 2: story everybody's so jiggy about. Mckel Bridges will rejoin Jalen Brunson, 702 00:38:29,880 --> 00:38:33,440 Speaker 2: Dante DiVincenzo, and Josh Hart. They're not calling them the 703 00:38:33,520 --> 00:38:36,239 Speaker 2: Nova Knicks. And in case you have had your head 704 00:38:36,320 --> 00:38:39,239 Speaker 2: the sand or in Mars and we're not aware. They 705 00:38:39,239 --> 00:38:43,560 Speaker 2: were all members of very good Villanova basketball teams. They 706 00:38:43,600 --> 00:38:46,799 Speaker 2: were a group of Villanova stars and now they're going 707 00:38:46,840 --> 00:38:50,359 Speaker 2: to be stars at Madison Square Garden. Mckel Bridges will 708 00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:52,200 Speaker 2: jump right into that starting lineup. And I think the 709 00:38:52,239 --> 00:38:55,719 Speaker 2: starting lineup is a little uncertain because there reigning first unit, 710 00:38:55,760 --> 00:38:59,279 Speaker 2: which is Brunson, de Vincenzo, ogn Andobe, Julius Randall and 711 00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:03,839 Speaker 2: Isaiah Hart. The thing is Hartenstein and Annobi. W are 712 00:39:03,880 --> 00:39:08,840 Speaker 2: you unrestricted free agents effective tomorrow. 713 00:39:08,440 --> 00:39:08,960 Speaker 1: I believe. 714 00:39:09,480 --> 00:39:11,520 Speaker 2: So you don't know one hundred percent what their futures are, 715 00:39:12,239 --> 00:39:17,160 Speaker 2: but the truth of the matter is the Knicks I 716 00:39:17,239 --> 00:39:22,000 Speaker 2: believe have the makings right now of a team that 717 00:39:22,360 --> 00:39:25,400 Speaker 2: he's ready to compete for a championship, not just on paper, 718 00:39:25,480 --> 00:39:30,640 Speaker 2: not just in theory, not just hypothetically, but literally. Mckil 719 00:39:30,719 --> 00:39:34,719 Speaker 2: bridges brings his significant two way presence to a two 720 00:39:34,760 --> 00:39:38,200 Speaker 2: way team. The Knicks were good defensively last year. They 721 00:39:38,239 --> 00:39:41,960 Speaker 2: struggled sometimes offensively, but that's because they were hurt. Mckil 722 00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:45,439 Speaker 2: bridges was an All defensive team member in twenty twenty two. 723 00:39:45,840 --> 00:39:49,640 Speaker 2: An extremely efficient role player, he helped the Phoenix Suns 724 00:39:49,680 --> 00:39:53,279 Speaker 2: the sixty four wins. He has also developed as an 725 00:39:53,280 --> 00:39:56,480 Speaker 2: individual scorer in Brooklyn, and he carry a very heavy 726 00:39:56,480 --> 00:39:59,560 Speaker 2: burden when Kevin Durant was there. So with the Knicks, 727 00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:02,000 Speaker 2: he'll be a spot up shooter, He'll be a cutter 728 00:40:02,080 --> 00:40:04,320 Speaker 2: like he was in Phoenix. He'll be the first option 729 00:40:04,680 --> 00:40:07,520 Speaker 2: on the other side. And the bottom line is the 730 00:40:07,600 --> 00:40:11,560 Speaker 2: Knicks and Leon Rose are on the verge of doing it. 731 00:40:12,239 --> 00:40:16,760 Speaker 2: Props coming up. Mark Medina Medina Magic, I'm Bernie Frattle. 732 00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:21,359 Speaker 2: It's the Bernie Frattle Show.

So you know 741 00:40:50,440 --> 00:40:55,319 Speaker 2: the drill. It's Saturday night, it's midnight. It's that time. 742 00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:59,880 Speaker 2: TI for Medina Magic, Mark Medina, our Fox Sports Radio 743 00:41:00,600 --> 00:41:04,520 Speaker 2: NBA Guru. We always ended segment with what will the 744 00:41:04,719 --> 00:41:07,280 Speaker 2: new cycle bring next week? And Mark, here we go, buddy. 745 00:41:07,320 --> 00:41:09,920 Speaker 2: We're gonna have to go rapid fire because there's a 746 00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:11,960 Speaker 2: lot to get to. I want to start with them 747 00:41:12,040 --> 00:41:15,840 Speaker 2: with Paul George. Paul George decided that forty eight point 748 00:41:15,880 --> 00:41:18,440 Speaker 2: seven million a year is not enough. But it sounds 749 00:41:18,440 --> 00:41:20,040 Speaker 2: to me like he just wants to hell out of 750 00:41:20,200 --> 00:41:22,960 Speaker 2: La Clippers. I understand he's going to meet with the 751 00:41:23,040 --> 00:41:26,879 Speaker 2: Sixers in Orlando. Magic and the Clippers you're a betting man. 752 00:41:26,920 --> 00:41:29,040 Speaker 2: Where do you think Paul Georgian's up next year. 753 00:41:29,640 --> 00:41:32,759 Speaker 9: I think Paul George ends up with the Sixers. You know, 754 00:41:32,880 --> 00:41:36,160 Speaker 9: the Sixers half cap space to sib no max deal. 755 00:41:36,160 --> 00:41:39,279 Speaker 9: It's been their priority to get a wing player Paul 756 00:41:39,360 --> 00:41:44,680 Speaker 9: George's caliber to pair up with Joel Embiid and Tyre Smaxy. 757 00:41:44,840 --> 00:41:48,319 Speaker 9: So I think that's what's gonna happen. And what's interesting is, 758 00:41:48,880 --> 00:41:50,799 Speaker 9: you know, kind of the point of contention of with 759 00:41:50,920 --> 00:41:53,279 Speaker 9: the Clippers was the fact that he wanted a four 760 00:41:53,360 --> 00:41:55,919 Speaker 9: year deal. They're only offering three year to deal able 761 00:41:55,920 --> 00:42:01,600 Speaker 9: to coincide with Kawhi Leonards extension, and so it's it's 762 00:42:01,600 --> 00:42:05,760 Speaker 9: surprising because for all the ups and downs, injuries, et cetera. 763 00:42:05,960 --> 00:42:08,880 Speaker 9: I thought last season Paul George played his most efficient 764 00:42:09,360 --> 00:42:13,080 Speaker 9: at his beast basketball and so I think from that standpoint, 765 00:42:13,360 --> 00:42:16,160 Speaker 9: he'd be better off stay and put. But look, it's 766 00:42:16,200 --> 00:42:20,000 Speaker 9: the NBA. It's a business. So he'll consider his options 767 00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:20,880 Speaker 9: and see what happens. 768 00:42:21,160 --> 00:42:23,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm in agreement with you, Mark, especially since they 769 00:42:23,480 --> 00:42:25,600 Speaker 2: move into the new Arena next year. Didn't the Clippers 770 00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:26,680 Speaker 2: take that into consideration. 771 00:42:27,800 --> 00:42:30,520 Speaker 9: Yeah, they took it into consideration. But another thing also took 772 00:42:30,600 --> 00:42:33,680 Speaker 9: into consideration is there's this thing called the second apron 773 00:42:35,719 --> 00:42:38,840 Speaker 9: in another year that eats into their ability to build 774 00:42:38,880 --> 00:42:41,680 Speaker 9: out a depthful roster. And I think the Clippers most 775 00:42:41,719 --> 00:42:44,680 Speaker 9: notably know they got to have some sort of roster 776 00:42:44,760 --> 00:42:48,359 Speaker 9: toup because unfortunately it's been inevitable for them that one 777 00:42:48,600 --> 00:42:50,759 Speaker 9: or two of their star players in Kawhi Leonard and 778 00:42:50,760 --> 00:42:54,480 Speaker 9: Paul George aren't always available. So that's where the rubber 779 00:42:54,480 --> 00:42:55,160 Speaker 9: meets the road. 780 00:42:55,719 --> 00:42:58,080 Speaker 2: No, that's exactly why we have you on. This is 781 00:42:58,280 --> 00:43:01,520 Speaker 2: upper crust stuff. The Clippers are a bout seventy million 782 00:43:01,640 --> 00:43:03,600 Speaker 2: from that apron, and if they try to do something 783 00:43:03,600 --> 00:43:06,000 Speaker 2: for James Harden. You bring up a great point there. 784 00:43:06,480 --> 00:43:08,919 Speaker 2: Let's jump to Klay Thompson. I feel like he got 785 00:43:08,920 --> 00:43:10,640 Speaker 2: his Feelings shirt because they only gave him a two 786 00:43:10,719 --> 00:43:13,920 Speaker 2: year deal versus a three year deal. Is it really 787 00:43:14,000 --> 00:43:16,880 Speaker 2: as simple as that they're prepared to lose Klay Thompson 788 00:43:17,239 --> 00:43:19,040 Speaker 2: over that elusive third year. 789 00:43:20,120 --> 00:43:23,000 Speaker 9: Well, I think there's a lot more layers to that. 790 00:43:23,120 --> 00:43:25,640 Speaker 9: I think that you know, he went through last season, 791 00:43:26,400 --> 00:43:29,000 Speaker 9: threw some ups and downs with not frankly being the 792 00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:31,920 Speaker 9: same player as he was before his ATLA during twenty 793 00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:35,640 Speaker 9: nineteen and also deal with a diminished role with coming 794 00:43:35,680 --> 00:43:38,040 Speaker 9: off the bench. Now, I think when you talk to 795 00:43:38,080 --> 00:43:42,440 Speaker 9: people within the Warriors organization, they feel like that he 796 00:43:42,480 --> 00:43:48,560 Speaker 9: did reach kind of a turning point of progress with 797 00:43:48,680 --> 00:43:52,400 Speaker 9: accepting embracing that. But I think the other thing is 798 00:43:52,440 --> 00:43:55,799 Speaker 9: that he wants to see what the marketplace is going 799 00:43:55,840 --> 00:43:59,239 Speaker 9: to dictate. But clearly at the fact that he's an 800 00:43:59,320 --> 00:44:03,120 Speaker 9: unfollowing the Warriors on social media and the messaging has 801 00:44:03,239 --> 00:44:08,239 Speaker 9: gotten out that he wants out, it seems like there's 802 00:44:08,239 --> 00:44:11,239 Speaker 9: been a lot more that's calling behind the scenes where 803 00:44:11,360 --> 00:44:15,239 Speaker 9: I think from Clay's perspective, he felt that, you know, 804 00:44:15,360 --> 00:44:20,360 Speaker 9: they've been too not necessarily prudent. He understands it's a business, 805 00:44:20,400 --> 00:44:23,280 Speaker 9: but the idea that he has to play second fiddle 806 00:44:23,400 --> 00:44:26,680 Speaker 9: to their priorities. After all, he's done with not just 807 00:44:26,760 --> 00:44:32,000 Speaker 9: helping them win championships, but sacrificing his role and earning 808 00:44:32,000 --> 00:44:35,360 Speaker 9: that nickname no maintenance for a reason that he would 809 00:44:35,360 --> 00:44:37,680 Speaker 9: feel like it's reciprocated. But I think from the Warriors 810 00:44:37,760 --> 00:44:41,120 Speaker 9: point of view, they did reciprocate that because they gave 811 00:44:41,160 --> 00:44:44,440 Speaker 9: him a max Steel five years ago, even when he 812 00:44:44,560 --> 00:44:47,640 Speaker 9: tore his acl so I did not see this coming. 813 00:44:47,680 --> 00:44:50,960 Speaker 9: I remember in twenty eighteen Clay talked to me at 814 00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:53,319 Speaker 9: his hotel during a charity event. He was saying, I 815 00:44:53,320 --> 00:44:55,680 Speaker 9: want to be a warrior for life. I would have 816 00:44:55,719 --> 00:44:59,600 Speaker 9: never predicted six years later that sentiment would change. But 817 00:44:59,640 --> 00:45:00,319 Speaker 9: here we are. 818 00:45:01,560 --> 00:45:04,960 Speaker 2: Think about what you just said a minute ago. This 819 00:45:05,160 --> 00:45:09,319 Speaker 2: is a business and everybody loves Klay Thompson, but he's 820 00:45:09,320 --> 00:45:12,720 Speaker 2: lost the yard office fastball. Let's just be honest about that. Okay, 821 00:45:13,320 --> 00:45:16,759 Speaker 2: So let's flip to the Lakers. Because Lebron ops out, 822 00:45:16,760 --> 00:45:19,280 Speaker 2: which we all know he do. He's not going anywhere, 823 00:45:19,600 --> 00:45:23,759 Speaker 2: but there are reports a uh Patrick Mahomes, Aaron Rodgers, 824 00:45:24,000 --> 00:45:28,440 Speaker 2: Tom Brady, he's going to take less money. Maybe if 825 00:45:28,440 --> 00:45:30,399 Speaker 2: the Lakers can get an impact player. I can only 826 00:45:30,440 --> 00:45:33,160 Speaker 2: think of three names, and these are all long shots 827 00:45:33,200 --> 00:45:35,880 Speaker 2: in my opinion, James Hard and Clay Thompson and Jonas 828 00:45:35,920 --> 00:45:37,680 Speaker 2: Felt Valentunis. 829 00:45:38,040 --> 00:45:41,840 Speaker 9: Let's add Damar DeRozan in there as. 830 00:45:41,680 --> 00:45:44,200 Speaker 1: Well, another thirty five year old guy. 831 00:45:44,960 --> 00:45:48,120 Speaker 9: Well, look, he's been very efficient. I know that the 832 00:45:48,160 --> 00:45:50,840 Speaker 9: Bulls had a lot of problems last year, but Damarrow 833 00:45:51,000 --> 00:45:54,520 Speaker 9: was not one of them. He's an LA guy. So 834 00:45:54,640 --> 00:45:57,680 Speaker 9: maybe there's some hometown discounts there too, But yeah, I 835 00:45:57,760 --> 00:46:01,040 Speaker 9: agree with you generally that there are only about four 836 00:46:01,080 --> 00:46:05,400 Speaker 9: players that fall into that category. So Lebron James's willingness 837 00:46:05,600 --> 00:46:08,640 Speaker 9: to take a pay cut is really on contingent on 838 00:46:08,920 --> 00:46:11,200 Speaker 9: where the money is going to. If it's going to 839 00:46:12,080 --> 00:46:15,080 Speaker 9: what you were mentioning an impact player, he'll sign up 840 00:46:15,080 --> 00:46:18,520 Speaker 9: for it. If it's just to you know, make sure 841 00:46:18,600 --> 00:46:21,200 Speaker 9: that Jeanie Busts and the rest of the Bus family 842 00:46:21,640 --> 00:46:24,200 Speaker 9: are will they're richer, he'll say, no, thanks, I'll take 843 00:46:24,200 --> 00:46:28,120 Speaker 9: the money because I'm Lebron James. So it's really about. 844 00:46:28,120 --> 00:46:30,080 Speaker 2: What's going to happen. I think I'm say it's. 845 00:46:29,920 --> 00:46:34,000 Speaker 9: Really about, well, well, will the money he gives back 846 00:46:34,239 --> 00:46:37,440 Speaker 9: helped them build a better roster, and he's had history 847 00:46:37,480 --> 00:46:39,480 Speaker 9: of doing that. I mean, we have to keep in 848 00:46:39,480 --> 00:46:43,000 Speaker 9: mind when he made that infamous decision taking his talents 849 00:46:43,000 --> 00:46:45,680 Speaker 9: to South Beach, he took a relative take cut for 850 00:46:45,719 --> 00:46:49,040 Speaker 9: that to happen, as well as Chris Bosh and Dwayne Wade, 851 00:46:49,080 --> 00:46:54,320 Speaker 9: so that they could have, you know, more roster flexibility 852 00:46:54,680 --> 00:46:58,920 Speaker 9: and roster death. So yeah, since then, when he was 853 00:46:58,920 --> 00:47:02,439 Speaker 9: in Cleveland, he didn't take pay cuts because I think 854 00:47:02,480 --> 00:47:04,880 Speaker 9: part of it was ownership with Dan Gilbert and the 855 00:47:04,880 --> 00:47:08,200 Speaker 9: fact that they could still build a competitive roster around him. 856 00:47:08,239 --> 00:47:11,880 Speaker 9: But the new labor deal is a lot more prigentitive, 857 00:47:12,080 --> 00:47:14,839 Speaker 9: so he's mindful of that. But again it's contingent on 858 00:47:15,360 --> 00:47:17,560 Speaker 9: if that pay cut results in more talent. 859 00:47:18,920 --> 00:47:21,120 Speaker 2: And is that talent even going to bridge the gap 860 00:47:21,160 --> 00:47:24,480 Speaker 2: closer to Dallas or Denver or Minnesota or Okay, See, 861 00:47:24,640 --> 00:47:26,799 Speaker 2: it's all fun to talk about. That's why we do 862 00:47:26,840 --> 00:47:29,160 Speaker 2: this segment. I believe it when I see it, I think, 863 00:47:29,960 --> 00:47:33,600 Speaker 2: I mean is listen, go ahead, you got the last 864 00:47:33,600 --> 00:47:34,000 Speaker 2: word on this. 865 00:47:34,080 --> 00:47:34,880 Speaker 1: You know how I feel. 866 00:47:35,080 --> 00:47:38,920 Speaker 9: Well, Look, things change dramatically in the NBA, and in 867 00:47:38,960 --> 00:47:41,759 Speaker 9: the Lakers case, they do have a huge opportunity. Their 868 00:47:41,880 --> 00:47:45,000 Speaker 9: roster's full, so it's not like they can sign players 869 00:47:45,040 --> 00:47:48,840 Speaker 9: via free agency, but they can do trades and signing trades. 870 00:47:48,920 --> 00:47:53,200 Speaker 9: And the fact that D'Angel Russell opted in, you know, 871 00:47:53,320 --> 00:47:55,880 Speaker 9: that's a askedt to have because he's an eighteen and 872 00:47:55,920 --> 00:47:59,919 Speaker 9: a half million dollars So yeah, right now, right now, 873 00:48:00,080 --> 00:48:02,799 Speaker 9: the Lakers are good to make the playans tournament, make 874 00:48:02,840 --> 00:48:05,400 Speaker 9: the playoffs, lose in the first round, but all it 875 00:48:05,480 --> 00:48:09,520 Speaker 9: takes is one you know, complimentary player, alstar caliber player. 876 00:48:09,920 --> 00:48:11,759 Speaker 9: For that to completely change on its head. 877 00:48:13,320 --> 00:48:16,719 Speaker 2: The one sign and trade deal I see happening is 878 00:48:16,719 --> 00:48:20,360 Speaker 2: Paul George going to Philadelphia. But that's a conversation for 879 00:48:20,440 --> 00:48:22,839 Speaker 2: different day. By the way, speaking of the Clippers, I 880 00:48:22,880 --> 00:48:26,120 Speaker 2: love it Russell Westbrook wants to stay for four million 881 00:48:26,200 --> 00:48:28,719 Speaker 2: dollars and I guess he just likes living in LA 882 00:48:28,760 --> 00:48:30,600 Speaker 2: and likes doing the deal, right. I kind of give 883 00:48:30,680 --> 00:48:31,640 Speaker 2: him a pat on the back for that. 884 00:48:32,520 --> 00:48:35,440 Speaker 9: Yeah. I think the other thing is he I think 885 00:48:35,440 --> 00:48:38,480 Speaker 9: he's a well aware that the marketplace wouldn't give him 886 00:48:38,480 --> 00:48:42,319 Speaker 9: a lucrative deal, so he took the safer out. Yeah, 887 00:48:42,320 --> 00:48:44,400 Speaker 9: he loves playing with the Clippers. He wasn't in that 888 00:48:44,480 --> 00:48:47,319 Speaker 9: way now. I think what is interesting, though, is that 889 00:48:47,440 --> 00:48:51,160 Speaker 9: his role decreased during last season's playoffs, and that was 890 00:48:51,239 --> 00:48:54,319 Speaker 9: something that didn't happen the regular season, didn't happen the 891 00:48:54,320 --> 00:48:58,759 Speaker 9: previous playoffs. So while he certainly feels more welcome with 892 00:48:58,840 --> 00:49:01,759 Speaker 9: the Clippers that he was with the Lakers, and the 893 00:49:01,800 --> 00:49:05,600 Speaker 9: Clippers will say the same thing about Russ, actions speak 894 00:49:05,640 --> 00:49:09,080 Speaker 9: louder than words, and his role is gained more marginalized 895 00:49:09,120 --> 00:49:12,120 Speaker 9: because we're seeing kind of the more of the worst 896 00:49:12,160 --> 00:49:15,560 Speaker 9: habits of Russ coming to full bloom. 897 00:49:16,239 --> 00:49:21,040 Speaker 2: Moving along, let's talk about the Dejonte Murray deal. I 898 00:49:21,040 --> 00:49:24,120 Speaker 2: think it sends a message that the Pelicans believe they're 899 00:49:24,120 --> 00:49:26,680 Speaker 2: real contenders next year, and that's another stumbling block in 900 00:49:26,680 --> 00:49:27,440 Speaker 2: front of the Lakers. 901 00:49:27,680 --> 00:49:32,040 Speaker 9: Talk about that deal, Mark, Yeah, Well, David Griffin, the 902 00:49:32,080 --> 00:49:35,440 Speaker 9: Pelicans vice president of Basquell operation, very clear after they 903 00:49:35,560 --> 00:49:38,440 Speaker 9: lost to the Oklahoma City in the first round that 904 00:49:38,800 --> 00:49:42,319 Speaker 9: it wasn't time to be complacent. So this is expected 905 00:49:42,760 --> 00:49:46,000 Speaker 9: that they would make moves. And so with them gaining 906 00:49:46,040 --> 00:49:48,720 Speaker 9: to Jontey Murray, this is someone that I was told 907 00:49:49,080 --> 00:49:51,680 Speaker 9: they are trying to get before the trade deadline last year. 908 00:49:51,840 --> 00:49:55,239 Speaker 9: It's just that the Hawks were saying no, and at 909 00:49:55,280 --> 00:49:58,400 Speaker 9: that point what they had to offer wasn't as enticing. 910 00:49:58,520 --> 00:50:01,360 Speaker 9: Now I am surprised that all it took was Dyson 911 00:50:01,480 --> 00:50:04,480 Speaker 9: Daniels and Larry Nts and a few draft picks for 912 00:50:04,520 --> 00:50:07,319 Speaker 9: the Hawks to say yes. But from the Pelicans end, 913 00:50:07,680 --> 00:50:12,360 Speaker 9: they got a traditional point guard. There is a fairly 914 00:50:12,400 --> 00:50:15,080 Speaker 9: good chance that they wind up trading braint in Ingram. 915 00:50:15,360 --> 00:50:18,160 Speaker 9: You know, I've been told for what it's worth, even 916 00:50:18,160 --> 00:50:21,360 Speaker 9: with his playoffs shortcomings in the first round against the Thunder. 917 00:50:21,760 --> 00:50:24,359 Speaker 9: They still want to keep them, but it's a matter of, 918 00:50:24,760 --> 00:50:28,000 Speaker 9: you know, the dollar number because of the second Apron concerns, 919 00:50:28,000 --> 00:50:30,839 Speaker 9: and that might not reach an agreement because so far 920 00:50:31,360 --> 00:50:34,239 Speaker 9: it hasn't yet. The same thing with Jonas Valentiunas he's 921 00:50:34,239 --> 00:50:37,600 Speaker 9: an unrestricted free agent. They do like him, but again 922 00:50:37,760 --> 00:50:41,640 Speaker 9: they're kind of strung because of these cap rules here. 923 00:50:41,800 --> 00:50:45,360 Speaker 9: So not only was it to address point guard needs, 924 00:50:45,360 --> 00:50:48,359 Speaker 9: but it's also to address a strong likelihood that they're 925 00:50:48,400 --> 00:50:51,759 Speaker 9: going to be shipping some guys out with Ingram and 926 00:50:52,160 --> 00:50:56,480 Speaker 9: maybe allowing notice Valentiunis to walk as an unrestricted free agent. 927 00:50:57,760 --> 00:51:01,200 Speaker 2: Talk with Mark medinam Adina Magic every Saturday night here 928 00:51:01,320 --> 00:51:05,000 Speaker 2: at midnight Pacific time on the Bernie Frattle Show. All Right, 929 00:51:05,040 --> 00:51:08,759 Speaker 2: I'm glad you mentioned DeMar Derosen because I always find 930 00:51:08,800 --> 00:51:10,640 Speaker 2: a way of the six degrees of Kevin Bacon and 931 00:51:10,719 --> 00:51:15,120 Speaker 2: he's NBA deals and I'll tie this together. Patrick Williams 932 00:51:15,760 --> 00:51:17,919 Speaker 2: is going back to the Bulls, got himself a nice 933 00:51:17,960 --> 00:51:21,399 Speaker 2: five year, ninety million dollar deal and it's a team 934 00:51:21,440 --> 00:51:23,520 Speaker 2: friendly deal. But remember this guy was a fourth pick 935 00:51:23,560 --> 00:51:27,120 Speaker 2: overall just a few years ago. Chicago loses Alex Caruso. 936 00:51:27,680 --> 00:51:31,080 Speaker 2: So now Patrick Williams becomes the Bulls best defender and 937 00:51:31,160 --> 00:51:33,439 Speaker 2: a very good two way player. Why do I bring 938 00:51:33,480 --> 00:51:36,440 Speaker 2: that up to me? That signals the end of DeMar 939 00:51:36,520 --> 00:51:40,040 Speaker 2: De Rosen in Chicago after three years he will be 940 00:51:40,080 --> 00:51:42,640 Speaker 2: an unrestricted free agent. How much money do you think 941 00:51:42,640 --> 00:51:45,040 Speaker 2: would it take for the Lakers to actually sign him? 942 00:51:46,000 --> 00:51:49,000 Speaker 9: Yeah, that's an interesting question. I don't think the door 943 00:51:49,080 --> 00:51:52,880 Speaker 9: is shut with the Bulls necessarily because I think that 944 00:51:53,400 --> 00:51:56,960 Speaker 9: to what you said, them trading Alex Caruso, they're probably 945 00:51:57,000 --> 00:52:00,759 Speaker 9: going to trade Zach Lavine as well. Maybe that if 946 00:52:00,800 --> 00:52:03,640 Speaker 9: anything else solidifies that the Bulls will at least try 947 00:52:03,680 --> 00:52:05,680 Speaker 9: to make a run at tomorrow and for what it's worth. 948 00:52:06,080 --> 00:52:08,799 Speaker 9: I know things have changed since then and now, but 949 00:52:09,160 --> 00:52:12,920 Speaker 9: before last season started, he told me that it was 950 00:52:12,960 --> 00:52:16,120 Speaker 9: a big priority of his to try to end his 951 00:52:16,160 --> 00:52:19,080 Speaker 9: career in Chicago, that that would mean a lot because 952 00:52:19,120 --> 00:52:21,719 Speaker 9: of his time there success. So I don't think that 953 00:52:21,800 --> 00:52:26,080 Speaker 9: door has been shut. But so many teams, including the Bulls, 954 00:52:26,400 --> 00:52:29,680 Speaker 9: including the Lakers, they've had to be very cash conscious 955 00:52:29,760 --> 00:52:34,040 Speaker 9: because of these salary capitals. So what number will it 956 00:52:34,080 --> 00:52:37,040 Speaker 9: take for tomorrow to sign I haven't been told a 957 00:52:37,080 --> 00:52:40,080 Speaker 9: specific number. I think really it's going to be about 958 00:52:40,520 --> 00:52:43,560 Speaker 9: what the roster looks around him that will influence where 959 00:52:43,560 --> 00:52:44,399 Speaker 9: he winds up going. 960 00:52:45,000 --> 00:52:47,399 Speaker 2: Do you think he is interested the possibly going to La? 961 00:52:48,080 --> 00:52:49,160 Speaker 9: Oh yeah, without a doubt. 962 00:52:49,239 --> 00:52:51,160 Speaker 1: I mean, so's the here's the real call. 963 00:52:51,160 --> 00:52:54,000 Speaker 2: I'm not asking the right question. Is Lebron willing to 964 00:52:54,040 --> 00:52:56,680 Speaker 2: take less to match what it would take to bring 965 00:52:56,719 --> 00:52:58,000 Speaker 2: tomor de Rosen? Oh? 966 00:52:58,080 --> 00:53:01,360 Speaker 9: Yeah, Tomorrow would fall under that category of impact player. 967 00:53:01,719 --> 00:53:04,120 Speaker 9: We have to keep in mind here that demarg Rosen 968 00:53:04,200 --> 00:53:07,800 Speaker 9: almost became a Laker two years ago, but then the 969 00:53:07,880 --> 00:53:11,279 Speaker 9: Lakers wound up getting Russell Westbrook instead. But you may 970 00:53:11,360 --> 00:53:15,920 Speaker 9: recall that prior to kind of that timeline where the 971 00:53:16,000 --> 00:53:18,879 Speaker 9: Lakers were near a deal to get Buddy healed from 972 00:53:18,920 --> 00:53:20,840 Speaker 9: Sacramento and then all of a sudden they pumped the 973 00:53:20,880 --> 00:53:25,640 Speaker 9: brakes because of the Russell Westbrook trade. Lebron James Anthony 974 00:53:25,719 --> 00:53:29,560 Speaker 9: Davis also talked to Damian Lillard and demarg Roseen about 975 00:53:29,600 --> 00:53:33,480 Speaker 9: possibly be linking up, and that was a real strong possibility. 976 00:53:33,840 --> 00:53:38,640 Speaker 9: Damar has connections obviously, being an La native, it means 977 00:53:38,680 --> 00:53:42,439 Speaker 9: a lot to him to still be in his hometown here, 978 00:53:42,880 --> 00:53:45,879 Speaker 9: so that Yeah, that's a very strong possibility. And if 979 00:53:45,920 --> 00:53:50,239 Speaker 9: he if it's a realistic possibility, if him signed with 980 00:53:50,280 --> 00:53:54,080 Speaker 9: the Lakers, Lebron would certainly take a pay cut to 981 00:53:54,120 --> 00:53:54,840 Speaker 9: make that happen. 982 00:53:55,680 --> 00:54:00,680 Speaker 2: Finally, it feels uncomfortable in Miami between Jimmy Butler the Heat. 983 00:54:01,200 --> 00:54:04,319 Speaker 2: Obviously they're not going to negotiate an extension right now. 984 00:54:04,320 --> 00:54:07,000 Speaker 2: He'll play off the season, likely opt out of his 985 00:54:07,080 --> 00:54:10,839 Speaker 2: final year, He'll be an unrestricted free agent. Are they 986 00:54:10,880 --> 00:54:12,440 Speaker 2: going to be able to kiss him make up before 987 00:54:12,480 --> 00:54:14,600 Speaker 2: the season starts and keep that Heat culture going. It 988 00:54:14,680 --> 00:54:16,960 Speaker 2: just doesn't feel like this is a very ideal situation 989 00:54:17,239 --> 00:54:19,480 Speaker 2: between Jimmy Butler and the Heat right now, Mark. 990 00:54:19,719 --> 00:54:23,760 Speaker 9: It's not an ideal situation. But I thought that earlier 991 00:54:23,840 --> 00:54:26,200 Speaker 9: this summer this meant the end of Jimmy Butler, that 992 00:54:26,840 --> 00:54:29,880 Speaker 9: the Heat would try to trade him only because they 993 00:54:29,960 --> 00:54:32,760 Speaker 9: felt like, Okay, now's the best time to get something 994 00:54:32,840 --> 00:54:38,000 Speaker 9: for him. And because even though I think if it 995 00:54:38,120 --> 00:54:40,560 Speaker 9: wasn't the fact that he was eligible for an extension, 996 00:54:40,640 --> 00:54:44,000 Speaker 9: they wouldn't have had to say yes or no, the 997 00:54:44,080 --> 00:54:46,400 Speaker 9: fact that that conversation took place and they had to 998 00:54:46,440 --> 00:54:50,080 Speaker 9: say no, they felt like, you know, that created more 999 00:54:50,480 --> 00:54:54,200 Speaker 9: clarity on how there was a disconnect between what Jimmy 1000 00:54:54,239 --> 00:54:57,000 Speaker 9: wanted what the Heat wanted. But I think that they're 1001 00:54:57,040 --> 00:55:00,520 Speaker 9: willing to stand pat use next season and has kind 1002 00:55:00,520 --> 00:55:03,600 Speaker 9: of a bounce back gear for Jimmy, most notably with 1003 00:55:03,680 --> 00:55:06,160 Speaker 9: his health, because when he's been on the court, he 1004 00:55:06,239 --> 00:55:10,480 Speaker 9: has been what the Miami Heat want in all their players, competitive, hell, 1005 00:55:11,120 --> 00:55:14,920 Speaker 9: very productive. So I think it'll be about rectifying everything 1006 00:55:15,000 --> 00:55:17,680 Speaker 9: next season for both sides and then seeing if that 1007 00:55:17,719 --> 00:55:21,080 Speaker 9: results in a better extension after next season. 1008 00:55:21,360 --> 00:55:22,279 Speaker 1: I just look, I. 1009 00:55:22,880 --> 00:55:24,880 Speaker 2: Love pat Riley to death, but would he tell Jimmy 1010 00:55:24,920 --> 00:55:27,080 Speaker 2: Butler to shut his mouth in front of God and everybody? 1011 00:55:27,200 --> 00:55:29,120 Speaker 2: I just don't believe that's set well with Jimmy Butler. 1012 00:55:30,120 --> 00:55:32,600 Speaker 9: It didn't fit well with Jimmy Butler. But look, he 1013 00:55:32,719 --> 00:55:36,800 Speaker 9: gotten the shouting matches with Eric Spulsra before and shouting 1014 00:55:36,880 --> 00:55:41,360 Speaker 9: matches with Udonis Haslam, who is like the og of 1015 00:55:41,480 --> 00:55:45,160 Speaker 9: Heat culture before his retirement. So yeah, I mean, this 1016 00:55:45,200 --> 00:55:48,960 Speaker 9: isn't the last or time they've argued. Their first time 1017 00:55:49,000 --> 00:55:51,399 Speaker 9: they've argued certainly won't be the last. And I think 1018 00:55:51,440 --> 00:55:53,719 Speaker 9: the good thing about Heat culture is they can be, 1019 00:55:54,560 --> 00:55:56,800 Speaker 9: you know, toe to toe with guys and then they 1020 00:55:57,040 --> 00:56:00,000 Speaker 9: carry that intensity into the next game as if nothing happened. 1021 00:56:01,480 --> 00:56:05,080 Speaker 2: All right, Mark, So Thursday night, July fourth, you'll join 1022 00:56:05,160 --> 00:56:09,040 Speaker 2: myself and Arnie Spanier at seven twenty Pacific time. 1023 00:56:09,480 --> 00:56:10,080 Speaker 1: Do you think there'll be. 1024 00:56:10,080 --> 00:56:14,640 Speaker 2: Anything substantive the report between now and then? Seriously? Thank you? 1025 00:56:14,800 --> 00:56:15,279 Speaker 9: I think so. 1026 00:56:15,480 --> 00:56:15,680 Speaker 4: Yeah. 1027 00:56:15,719 --> 00:56:18,240 Speaker 9: We're going to be talking about guys in different uniforms. 1028 00:56:18,280 --> 00:56:19,040 Speaker 9: It will be a lot time. 1029 00:56:19,080 --> 00:56:21,960 Speaker 2: Wow, okay, I look forward to that. Then cool, well, 1030 00:56:21,960 --> 00:56:25,640 Speaker 2: that'll be something, and there'll always be something, and you 1031 00:56:25,680 --> 00:56:29,400 Speaker 2: know it's amazing. Right on que first day of free agency, 1032 00:56:29,800 --> 00:56:33,080 Speaker 2: there's all kinds of headlines. Mark great stuff has always 1033 00:56:33,080 --> 00:56:34,040 Speaker 2: appreciate you, man. 1034 00:56:34,160 --> 00:56:36,000 Speaker 9: I appreciate you as well. 1035 00:56:36,040 --> 00:56:39,680 Speaker 2: That is Mark Medina, Nina Magic. He joins me every 1036 00:56:40,000 --> 00:56:44,359 Speaker 2: Saturday night here on Fox Sports Radio and the Bernie 1037 00:56:44,360 --> 00:56:47,479 Speaker 2: Frattle Show at twelve midnight, and as you can see, 1038 00:56:47,480 --> 00:56:52,319 Speaker 2: he's very plugged in. And look, the NBA is kind 1039 00:56:52,320 --> 00:56:54,040 Speaker 2: of winding up with a bang, and then you'll be 1040 00:56:54,040 --> 00:56:57,600 Speaker 2: turning your attention to the NFL, but already some really 1041 00:56:57,640 --> 00:57:03,000 Speaker 2: interesting storylines into the upcoming NBA season, which is still 1042 00:57:03,040 --> 00:57:04,879 Speaker 2: months away. But look, we do this fifty two weeks 1043 00:57:04,920 --> 00:57:10,240 Speaker 2: a year because there's always news coming up. We rarely 1044 00:57:10,280 --> 00:57:13,600 Speaker 2: do this, but I really kind of have to give 1045 00:57:13,800 --> 00:57:17,760 Speaker 2: the Florida Panthers just their flowers ever so quickly, because 1046 00:57:18,040 --> 00:57:20,240 Speaker 2: Matthew kuld Chuck had a great line after winning the 1047 00:57:20,240 --> 00:57:22,560 Speaker 2: Stanley Cup, and I believe I said on the show 1048 00:57:22,640 --> 00:57:24,560 Speaker 2: last Saturday night, I thought Florida. 1049 00:57:24,480 --> 00:57:25,160 Speaker 1: Would win it. 1050 00:57:25,280 --> 00:57:27,080 Speaker 2: I just didn't think they'd lose four in a row. 1051 00:57:27,280 --> 00:57:29,360 Speaker 2: I knew Bobrowski would come up big in one game, 1052 00:57:29,400 --> 00:57:32,240 Speaker 2: and it turns out the Edmonton Oilers were gassed. But 1053 00:57:32,800 --> 00:57:35,680 Speaker 2: let's get them their final props, because hey, winning the 1054 00:57:35,680 --> 00:57:38,080 Speaker 2: Stanley Cup ain't so easy, and it's the first time 1055 00:57:38,080 --> 00:57:41,640 Speaker 2: in history that Florida has ever won it. And we 1056 00:57:41,680 --> 00:57:43,520 Speaker 2: have a lot of good listeners down there in Miami. 1057 00:57:43,680 --> 00:57:46,040 Speaker 2: I'm Bernie fradda or comedy lyon from the Las Vegas 1058 00:57:46,120 --> 00:57:48,680 Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio Tarrac dot Com Studios. Keep it locked 1059 00:57:48,720 --> 00:57:50,640 Speaker 2: right here. You're listening to the Bernie Fraddle Show on 1060 00:57:50,680 --> 00:57:54,240 Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio. We're back on the Bernie Frattle Show, 1061 00:57:54,240 --> 00:57:56,760 Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio. Come to live from you Tarac dot 1062 00:57:56,760 --> 00:58:00,640 Speaker 2: Com studios here in Las Vegas. Take you up to 1063 00:58:00,680 --> 00:58:04,240 Speaker 2: three am Pacific, six am Eastern. 1064 00:58:05,960 --> 00:58:07,960 Speaker 1: The NHL Draft. 1065 00:58:08,000 --> 00:58:10,120 Speaker 2: The first round of the NHL Draft was hosted right 1066 00:58:10,160 --> 00:58:13,240 Speaker 2: here in Las Vegas at the Spear yet other night, 1067 00:58:13,320 --> 00:58:18,640 Speaker 2: and something interesting happened that very few people probably noticed, 1068 00:58:18,800 --> 00:58:21,760 Speaker 2: but a lot of the right people noticed. There were 1069 00:58:21,840 --> 00:58:25,880 Speaker 2: no public congratulations for the Stanley Cup champion Florida Panthers 1070 00:58:25,920 --> 00:58:29,840 Speaker 2: during the draft. But traditionally, when teams first go up 1071 00:58:29,880 --> 00:58:32,080 Speaker 2: to the podium to make their initial selection on Day 1072 00:58:32,080 --> 00:58:34,720 Speaker 2: one of the draft, they typically take a moment to 1073 00:58:34,800 --> 00:58:39,760 Speaker 2: congratulate the season's Stanley Cup champion. That did not happen 1074 00:58:39,800 --> 00:58:43,240 Speaker 2: this year. Not once did someone step up to the 1075 00:58:43,280 --> 00:58:46,960 Speaker 2: podium to give the Florida Panthers a little love for 1076 00:58:47,080 --> 00:58:50,040 Speaker 2: winning I believe the toughest trophy in all the sports. 1077 00:58:50,520 --> 00:58:53,120 Speaker 2: Even Alex Bomgartner tweeted it out. It's just can't remember 1078 00:58:53,160 --> 00:58:55,840 Speaker 2: the last time it's ever happened. Usually multiple teams give 1079 00:58:55,880 --> 00:58:59,680 Speaker 2: a shout out to the winner. Maybe the league is 1080 00:58:59,720 --> 00:59:02,640 Speaker 2: a little upset that they play a really tough, aggressive 1081 00:59:02,640 --> 00:59:06,000 Speaker 2: style that's physically exhausting and they took the offense out 1082 00:59:06,000 --> 00:59:08,240 Speaker 2: of the Well, it doesn't matter, but it didn't happen. 1083 00:59:08,320 --> 00:59:11,840 Speaker 2: But Matthew Kachuck did have one great line after winning 1084 00:59:11,880 --> 00:59:14,200 Speaker 2: the cup. He shout it out to his former team. 1085 00:59:15,880 --> 00:59:19,160 Speaker 2: You know, the Panthers beat Edmonton two to one game 1086 00:59:19,240 --> 00:59:23,600 Speaker 2: seven last week and during the postgame interview, Kuchuk and 1087 00:59:23,640 --> 00:59:24,840 Speaker 2: this is what hockey players do. 1088 00:59:24,920 --> 00:59:25,560 Speaker 1: Man kind of cool. 1089 00:59:25,560 --> 00:59:28,640 Speaker 2: They Paido montch his former supporters in Calgaries that shout 1090 00:59:28,640 --> 00:59:31,280 Speaker 2: out to my fans in Calgary, just so you know, 1091 00:59:31,480 --> 00:59:36,880 Speaker 2: I couldn't let Edmonton win. Kuchuk was the sixth player 1092 00:59:36,920 --> 00:59:40,200 Speaker 2: picked in the twenty sixteen entry draft by Calgary and 1093 00:59:40,280 --> 00:59:42,440 Speaker 2: he had a contract dispute, so he's on his way. 1094 00:59:42,840 --> 00:59:46,400 Speaker 2: But one guy I think is probably happy, our guy 1095 00:59:46,480 --> 00:59:48,880 Speaker 2: Shay Moganngard and a Shay. We talked about this last 1096 00:59:48,960 --> 00:59:51,479 Speaker 2: week and I'll talk about this with Eddie Garcia too. 1097 00:59:51,840 --> 00:59:53,640 Speaker 2: I'll be doing some Mallor shows coming up in a 1098 00:59:53,680 --> 00:59:56,680 Speaker 2: couple of weeks. Edmonton, I believe Shaves knocked out the 1099 00:59:56,760 --> 00:59:58,760 Speaker 2: Kings three years in a row. I don't say that 1100 00:59:58,800 --> 01:00:00,439 Speaker 2: to be derogatory, just a fact, right. 1101 01:00:00,520 --> 01:00:02,840 Speaker 1: It is a fact. Yes, it's a it's a sad fact. 1102 01:00:04,240 --> 01:00:08,000 Speaker 2: And so I guess you know, with all due respect 1103 01:00:08,000 --> 01:00:11,520 Speaker 2: to the starved Canadians who haven't seen a team hoist 1104 01:00:11,520 --> 01:00:14,200 Speaker 2: a cup in candidate since ninety three on a scale 1105 01:00:14,200 --> 01:00:16,280 Speaker 2: of one to ten. How happy were you to see 1106 01:00:16,920 --> 01:00:18,280 Speaker 2: Edmonton be denied? 1107 01:00:18,960 --> 01:00:20,600 Speaker 1: I was ecstatic, Bernie. 1108 01:00:20,640 --> 01:00:23,160 Speaker 5: I was actually here at Fox Sports Studios and I 1109 01:00:23,280 --> 01:00:26,320 Speaker 5: was actually in charge of covering the game, forgetting the 1110 01:00:26,400 --> 01:00:28,520 Speaker 5: edits and all that in post game. So when I 1111 01:00:28,600 --> 01:00:32,640 Speaker 5: tell you, seeing Connor McDavid sulking was one of the 1112 01:00:32,640 --> 01:00:35,720 Speaker 5: greatest moments of my life. It was one hundred percent 1113 01:00:36,680 --> 01:00:39,120 Speaker 5: something I needed and I was holding I'm not gonna 1114 01:00:39,160 --> 01:00:41,360 Speaker 5: lie to you, I was holding my breath up until 1115 01:00:41,400 --> 01:00:45,360 Speaker 5: that first goal from Florida. But until then my heart 1116 01:00:45,400 --> 01:00:47,680 Speaker 5: was beating, my hands were sweating. I was just like, 1117 01:00:47,800 --> 01:00:50,320 Speaker 5: oh my goodness. But the minute they got the first goal, 1118 01:00:50,960 --> 01:00:54,640 Speaker 5: the biggest weight was lifted off of my back, Bernie, 1119 01:00:54,680 --> 01:00:55,720 Speaker 5: Oh my goodness. 1120 01:00:55,720 --> 01:00:57,800 Speaker 2: And you know then I was because I'd kind of 1121 01:00:57,800 --> 01:01:00,480 Speaker 2: talked boldly that I thought Florida would win. But then 1122 01:01:00,520 --> 01:01:02,880 Speaker 2: what a couple of minutes later Edmond did even to score, 1123 01:01:02,920 --> 01:01:06,120 Speaker 2: and you go, oh no. But then Bobrowski settled down, 1124 01:01:06,280 --> 01:01:08,320 Speaker 2: you know, and then we come to find out Edmonton 1125 01:01:08,400 --> 01:01:10,440 Speaker 2: kind of ran out of gas. I think, just coming 1126 01:01:10,480 --> 01:01:13,800 Speaker 2: back from three to zero emptied the tank. Yeah, good 1127 01:01:13,880 --> 01:01:17,680 Speaker 2: good stuff. She you were a fatic and you're fatic 1128 01:01:19,000 --> 01:01:21,160 Speaker 2: the chef. I think you had some similar thoughts. 1129 01:01:21,160 --> 01:01:24,200 Speaker 6: Did you not on the Stanley Cup on Edmondton. I mean, 1130 01:01:24,240 --> 01:01:26,240 Speaker 6: I was no fan of Edmonton, but I didn't really 1131 01:01:26,400 --> 01:01:29,080 Speaker 6: pay much attention to this Stanley Cup final. I did 1132 01:01:29,160 --> 01:01:31,919 Speaker 6: watch a little bit of Game seven, but I did 1133 01:01:31,960 --> 01:01:33,880 Speaker 6: have a dislike of the Oilers, so that was nice 1134 01:01:33,880 --> 01:01:37,480 Speaker 6: to see, but not really. I don't really feel much 1135 01:01:37,480 --> 01:01:41,400 Speaker 6: toward Florida either, so it was a very neutral Stanley Cup. 1136 01:01:41,440 --> 01:01:44,800 Speaker 2: But I might have overestimated your fandom of the Kings. 1137 01:01:44,840 --> 01:01:47,320 Speaker 2: I know the Kings have a much stronger fan base 1138 01:01:47,320 --> 01:01:48,160 Speaker 2: than people realize. 1139 01:01:48,200 --> 01:01:51,080 Speaker 6: Like I do like the Kings, and I really am 1140 01:01:51,200 --> 01:01:53,240 Speaker 6: upset to how the Oilers beat them the last what 1141 01:01:53,320 --> 01:01:54,440 Speaker 6: three years in the playoffs. 1142 01:01:54,520 --> 01:01:55,400 Speaker 1: But yes. 1143 01:01:57,480 --> 01:01:59,680 Speaker 6: It was again, Florida was never a team I was 1144 01:01:59,680 --> 01:02:02,080 Speaker 6: a fan, so seeing them when you know, didn't do 1145 01:02:02,160 --> 01:02:04,560 Speaker 6: a whole lot more than seeing Edmonton lose, I guess, 1146 01:02:04,560 --> 01:02:05,240 Speaker 6: is what I mean to say. 1147 01:02:05,240 --> 01:02:07,160 Speaker 2: I thought it was sort of interesting that not one 1148 01:02:07,760 --> 01:02:10,440 Speaker 2: nobody gave them their props at the draft, and I 1149 01:02:10,480 --> 01:02:14,360 Speaker 2: thought that was well, it didn't go unnoticed. Mark Ramsey, 1150 01:02:14,400 --> 01:02:16,560 Speaker 2: did you have any thoughts on this or you kind 1151 01:02:16,560 --> 01:02:17,560 Speaker 2: of removed yourself. 1152 01:02:17,280 --> 01:02:17,840 Speaker 1: From the hockey. 1153 01:02:18,480 --> 01:02:20,640 Speaker 10: Oh I was, you know, I'm just happy somebody that 1154 01:02:20,880 --> 01:02:23,360 Speaker 10: that Florida got their first one. So that's always a 1155 01:02:23,360 --> 01:02:26,520 Speaker 10: good thing when a new team wins the Cup. 1156 01:02:27,240 --> 01:02:30,280 Speaker 2: I just remember doing Malor Show when the playoffs were 1157 01:02:30,320 --> 01:02:32,640 Speaker 2: just getting started, and sure enough Edmondton knocked out the 1158 01:02:32,720 --> 01:02:34,600 Speaker 2: Kings for the first year in a row. And I 1159 01:02:34,600 --> 01:02:36,680 Speaker 2: know how that can be. I know how that can 1160 01:02:36,720 --> 01:02:39,320 Speaker 2: be when you've got a favorite team and you've got 1161 01:02:39,320 --> 01:02:43,280 Speaker 2: a situation where you know, it starts to have a 1162 01:02:43,440 --> 01:02:46,600 Speaker 2: cumulative effect. It's like the Minnesota Twins with the New 1163 01:02:46,680 --> 01:02:48,480 Speaker 2: York Yankees. The Minnesota Twins are always good in the 1164 01:02:48,520 --> 01:02:52,080 Speaker 2: regular season, they just can't get past the darn New 1165 01:02:52,120 --> 01:02:55,040 Speaker 2: York Yankees. But that's a conversation for another day. So 1166 01:02:55,120 --> 01:03:02,280 Speaker 2: the drought in Canada continues courtesy of the Florida Panthers. 1167 01:03:02,680 --> 01:03:06,320 Speaker 2: Speaking of droughts, I want to revisit the conversation I 1168 01:03:06,360 --> 01:03:11,200 Speaker 2: had with Jason Hrshard earlier in the show. There are 1169 01:03:11,320 --> 01:03:15,240 Speaker 2: five notable droughts in the NFL as we head into 1170 01:03:15,280 --> 01:03:18,960 Speaker 2: twenty twenty four, and these are notable. Could any of 1171 01:03:19,000 --> 01:03:22,480 Speaker 2: them end in twenty twenty four. We revisit that coming up, 1172 01:03:22,520 --> 01:03:24,120 Speaker 2: but first we go back to our guy, the chef, 1173 01:03:24,360 --> 01:03:25,560 Speaker 2: Kevin Wyre with the latest. 1174 01:03:25,840 --> 01:03:29,000 Speaker 6: Yeah, some pieces of NBA news. The most recent one 1175 01:03:29,080 --> 01:03:32,520 Speaker 6: Sham's saying that Patrick Williams will return to Chicago on 1176 01:03:32,560 --> 01:03:36,400 Speaker 6: a ninety million dollars deal across five seasons. And the 1177 01:03:36,440 --> 01:03:39,040 Speaker 6: big piece of news though, Paul George opting out of 1178 01:03:39,080 --> 01:03:43,320 Speaker 6: his contract with the Los Angeles Clippers and Adrian war 1179 01:03:43,400 --> 01:03:46,160 Speaker 6: Zanowski saying that he does plan on meeting with the Clippers. 1180 01:03:46,160 --> 01:03:51,440 Speaker 6: Philadelphia seventy six ers in Orlando Magic beginning late Sunday evening. 1181 01:03:51,760 --> 01:03:56,400 Speaker 6: Major League Baseball Dodgers Giants. Friday Night ended in dramatic fashion, 1182 01:03:56,760 --> 01:03:59,560 Speaker 6: a walk off win for the Giants, and on Saturday 1183 01:03:59,600 --> 01:04:03,240 Speaker 6: it's the winning an extra innings fourteen to seven in 1184 01:04:03,520 --> 01:04:07,720 Speaker 6: eleven choey Otani cranking his twenty six home run of 1185 01:04:07,840 --> 01:04:12,120 Speaker 6: football score chef yeah, and uh Dodgers getting the revenge. 1186 01:04:12,280 --> 01:04:14,959 Speaker 6: I was upset about how things ended on Friday nights, 1187 01:04:15,000 --> 01:04:18,600 Speaker 6: so that that big eleventh inning seven runs wow, huge, 1188 01:04:19,200 --> 01:04:22,200 Speaker 6: So yeah, that was that was very gratifying to watch 1189 01:04:22,920 --> 01:04:26,200 Speaker 6: there as it was seen over on Fox. Baltimore beats 1190 01:04:26,240 --> 01:04:29,120 Speaker 6: the Texas Rangers six to five. That sends the defending 1191 01:04:29,120 --> 01:04:31,919 Speaker 6: World Series champions to their sixth straight loss. And that's 1192 01:04:31,920 --> 01:04:34,080 Speaker 6: going from bad to worse because Cory Seger had to 1193 01:04:34,200 --> 01:04:36,720 Speaker 6: leave the game yes, after he was hit by a 1194 01:04:36,720 --> 01:04:38,960 Speaker 6: pitch on his left wrist. X rays were negative, but 1195 01:04:39,120 --> 01:04:40,600 Speaker 6: it did not look good. 1196 01:04:40,880 --> 01:04:44,280 Speaker 2: It didn't. He went down. He was cringing, man, go ahead, check. 1197 01:04:44,120 --> 01:04:45,840 Speaker 6: And yeah, Cory Sieger's been so I mean, he was 1198 01:04:45,880 --> 01:04:47,800 Speaker 6: one of my favorite players as a Dodger and was 1199 01:04:47,840 --> 01:04:50,400 Speaker 6: a big part of their success in winning the World Series. 1200 01:04:50,480 --> 01:04:54,040 Speaker 6: So that could be a big blow for Texas. Says again, 1201 01:04:54,080 --> 01:04:56,360 Speaker 6: they're really struggling right now. The Angels, though, on the 1202 01:04:56,400 --> 01:04:59,560 Speaker 6: opposite trend. They had really struggled much of this year, 1203 01:04:59,640 --> 01:05:02,800 Speaker 6: especially without Mike Trout, but they're not on a six 1204 01:05:02,880 --> 01:05:05,920 Speaker 6: game winning streak six ' five in ten innings against 1205 01:05:05,960 --> 01:05:09,080 Speaker 6: the Tigers. The San Diego Padres also on a roll 1206 01:05:09,240 --> 01:05:11,680 Speaker 6: five straight wins. They beat the Red Sox eleven to 1207 01:05:11,720 --> 01:05:15,840 Speaker 6: one behind two home runs and five RBIs from Manny Machado. 1208 01:05:16,400 --> 01:05:19,960 Speaker 6: The Minnesota's wins beat the Mariners five one, the Braves 1209 01:05:20,000 --> 01:05:22,240 Speaker 6: over the Pirates two to one. But Paul Skins, how 1210 01:05:22,280 --> 01:05:25,400 Speaker 6: impressive has he been. I mean this time last year, 1211 01:05:25,440 --> 01:05:27,920 Speaker 6: it seems actually was his time last year he was 1212 01:05:28,080 --> 01:05:31,000 Speaker 6: pitching in the College World Series, and now he's in 1213 01:05:31,040 --> 01:05:33,400 Speaker 6: the major leagues with the two point zero six e 1214 01:05:33,760 --> 01:05:36,000 Speaker 6: r A after taking the no decision against the Braves, 1215 01:05:36,120 --> 01:05:39,640 Speaker 6: Atlanta did win a two to one, but Skins six innings, 1216 01:05:39,880 --> 01:05:42,720 Speaker 6: nine strikeouts and two walks still allow six hits, but 1217 01:05:42,760 --> 01:05:47,000 Speaker 6: otherwise an outstanding performance two points zero six ERA on 1218 01:05:47,240 --> 01:05:51,360 Speaker 6: his youngest season, young career so far. Elsewhere in Major 1219 01:05:51,440 --> 01:05:54,320 Speaker 6: League Baseball, the Blue Jays over the Yankees nine to three. 1220 01:05:54,440 --> 01:05:56,520 Speaker 6: One so did did not play because of a bruce hand, 1221 01:05:56,520 --> 01:06:00,280 Speaker 6: but Vladimir Grove Junior providing much of the fire works 1222 01:06:00,280 --> 01:06:04,520 Speaker 6: on offense a home run, six runs batted. In Soccer 1223 01:06:04,720 --> 01:06:08,600 Speaker 6: Copa America Argentina three and zero in group play, they 1224 01:06:08,600 --> 01:06:11,840 Speaker 6: beat Peru two nil in Miami. Lionla Messi did not 1225 01:06:11,960 --> 01:06:13,960 Speaker 6: play in that game. He did have a groin injury. 1226 01:06:14,280 --> 01:06:17,439 Speaker 6: Chile was eliminated after they had played to a nil 1227 01:06:17,480 --> 01:06:21,800 Speaker 6: nil draw against Canada at the Euro twenty twenty four Championships. 1228 01:06:22,000 --> 01:06:25,280 Speaker 6: Germany shuts out Denmark to nil. The one they're delay 1229 01:06:25,320 --> 01:06:27,800 Speaker 6: more than twenty minutes late in that first half because 1230 01:06:27,800 --> 01:06:30,640 Speaker 6: of lightning, hail, and heavy rain in the vicinity, but 1231 01:06:31,160 --> 01:06:34,760 Speaker 6: they did eventually finish that game. Switzerland eliminates Italy to nil, 1232 01:06:35,200 --> 01:06:39,000 Speaker 6: and on Sunday, Fox will carry both games in the 1233 01:06:39,040 --> 01:06:40,760 Speaker 6: Euro twenty twenty four Championships. 1234 01:06:40,800 --> 01:06:42,960 Speaker 2: Back to you, Bernie ow Big is this game Monday 1235 01:06:42,960 --> 01:06:43,800 Speaker 2: for the United. 1236 01:06:43,560 --> 01:06:48,080 Speaker 7: States after that lost to Panama and then. 1237 01:06:47,960 --> 01:06:49,840 Speaker 2: Now they played the number one team in the turn 1238 01:06:50,040 --> 01:06:54,640 Speaker 2: in their group. This is not good, not good, all right. 1239 01:06:55,360 --> 01:06:59,560 Speaker 2: Speaking of droughts, there are five that will be paying 1240 01:06:59,600 --> 01:07:03,480 Speaker 2: attention to in the NFL this year, all right, And 1241 01:07:03,800 --> 01:07:05,520 Speaker 2: the first one I think has to be the New 1242 01:07:05,600 --> 01:07:08,440 Speaker 2: York Jets. The Jets have gone thirteen years without a 1243 01:07:08,440 --> 01:07:11,200 Speaker 2: playoff appearance. They've been competitive, but we all know what 1244 01:07:11,320 --> 01:07:15,040 Speaker 2: happened last year. Their playoff hopes were hammered for what 1245 01:07:15,160 --> 01:07:17,000 Speaker 2: four or five plays into the four snaps into the 1246 01:07:17,040 --> 01:07:20,400 Speaker 2: season when Aaron Rodgers went down. And the Jets do 1247 01:07:20,560 --> 01:07:23,520 Speaker 2: have an elite defense, but that defense could not compensate 1248 01:07:24,120 --> 01:07:26,640 Speaker 2: for the Jets offense last year, which couldn't score in 1249 01:07:26,680 --> 01:07:28,920 Speaker 2: a women's prison with a fist full of fifties. So 1250 01:07:29,000 --> 01:07:31,480 Speaker 2: now they've got the longest active playoff drought in the 1251 01:07:31,600 --> 01:07:35,520 Speaker 2: NFL and the longest in their own franchise history as well. 1252 01:07:36,360 --> 01:07:39,360 Speaker 2: So the expectations I think in New York this year 1253 01:07:39,440 --> 01:07:42,440 Speaker 2: are completely through the roof, even though Aaron Rodgers is 1254 01:07:42,480 --> 01:07:44,840 Speaker 2: forty one, even though he's coming off a major injury. 1255 01:07:46,200 --> 01:07:49,680 Speaker 2: They did overhaul the offensive line, brought in a couple 1256 01:07:50,120 --> 01:07:54,480 Speaker 2: good players, and look, they added some wide receivers and 1257 01:07:54,600 --> 01:07:56,680 Speaker 2: at the end of the day, on paper, this looks 1258 01:07:56,800 --> 01:07:59,120 Speaker 2: like a playoff team, just like it did a season ago. 1259 01:07:59,440 --> 01:08:02,920 Speaker 2: But we know how injuries can derail things best played plans. 1260 01:08:03,360 --> 01:08:07,720 Speaker 2: The FCS a crowded conference, but with these new playoff rules, 1261 01:08:07,760 --> 01:08:12,160 Speaker 2: et cetera, if the Jets can't assuming they stay healthy, 1262 01:08:12,200 --> 01:08:15,720 Speaker 2: if the Jets can't enter as a wild card something, 1263 01:08:15,760 --> 01:08:19,080 Speaker 2: they must be cursed. Okay, that's one drought to look 1264 01:08:19,120 --> 01:08:22,880 Speaker 2: at now to a lesser degree, the Atlanta Falcons. They've 1265 01:08:22,920 --> 01:08:24,839 Speaker 2: also gone six years with a lot of playoff appearance. 1266 01:08:25,160 --> 01:08:27,519 Speaker 2: The last time Atlanta was in the postseason, Matt and 1267 01:08:27,560 --> 01:08:30,800 Speaker 2: Ryan was the quarterback, Julio Jones was their top wide out. 1268 01:08:31,280 --> 01:08:34,559 Speaker 2: Dan Quinn was their head coach. That was twenty seventeen. 1269 01:08:35,439 --> 01:08:39,519 Speaker 2: That team lost to the Eagles in the first round. 1270 01:08:41,600 --> 01:08:43,640 Speaker 2: Of course, the Eagles. If there's any consolation, they went 1271 01:08:43,680 --> 01:08:46,240 Speaker 2: on to win the Super Bowl, But since then the 1272 01:08:46,320 --> 01:08:48,519 Speaker 2: Falcons are either seven to nine or seven to ten 1273 01:08:48,680 --> 01:08:52,040 Speaker 2: five of the last six years. But I think there's 1274 01:08:52,240 --> 01:08:56,840 Speaker 2: a renewed hope. I think there is legitimate optimism that's 1275 01:08:57,160 --> 01:09:00,960 Speaker 2: justified for the Falcons. This year. He signed Kirk Cousin. 1276 01:09:01,400 --> 01:09:03,479 Speaker 2: That's got to be a massive step up from Devmond 1277 01:09:03,520 --> 01:09:06,599 Speaker 2: Ritter and Marcus Mariota Yeai's thirty five. Yeah, he's coming 1278 01:09:06,640 --> 01:09:11,240 Speaker 2: off of achilles tear. But Atlanta has also brought back 1279 01:09:11,320 --> 01:09:12,920 Speaker 2: Raheem Morris, a guy who I have a lot of 1280 01:09:12,960 --> 01:09:15,760 Speaker 2: respect for. He was the interim coach after Dan Quinn 1281 01:09:15,880 --> 01:09:19,800 Speaker 2: was fired in twenty twenty and I think probably should 1282 01:09:19,840 --> 01:09:23,880 Speaker 2: have been retained. The team played very hard under rahee Morris, 1283 01:09:24,640 --> 01:09:26,760 Speaker 2: but he had to go. He went to La Was 1284 01:09:26,920 --> 01:09:29,600 Speaker 2: you know, spent three seasons there as a defensive coordinator. 1285 01:09:30,080 --> 01:09:34,439 Speaker 2: So you combine Cousins, who has been a reasonable offensive 1286 01:09:34,479 --> 01:09:38,160 Speaker 2: threat as long as it's the regular season, with Raheem 1287 01:09:38,200 --> 01:09:41,640 Speaker 2: Morris and his defensive scheme, and the fact that the 1288 01:09:42,080 --> 01:09:45,200 Speaker 2: Falcons have the easiest strength to schedule in the National 1289 01:09:45,200 --> 01:09:48,439 Speaker 2: Football League this year, if the Falcons can't earn a 1290 01:09:48,479 --> 01:09:52,360 Speaker 2: wildcard spot or maybe even when their first NFC crown 1291 01:09:52,520 --> 01:09:54,680 Speaker 2: in the last eight years. I have no faith in 1292 01:09:55,160 --> 01:09:59,120 Speaker 2: Derek Carr and the New Orleans Saints. And you know, 1293 01:09:59,160 --> 01:10:01,360 Speaker 2: I think Tampa Bay going to be better than people realize. 1294 01:10:01,439 --> 01:10:04,240 Speaker 2: I like Baker Mayfield. I don't know that Carolina is 1295 01:10:04,280 --> 01:10:07,760 Speaker 2: ready to step up yet. But the Bucks look back 1296 01:10:07,840 --> 01:10:10,439 Speaker 2: to back division champs. They're gonna have something to say 1297 01:10:10,479 --> 01:10:13,519 Speaker 2: about it. It's a weak division and the conference at large. 1298 01:10:13,840 --> 01:10:18,559 Speaker 2: Even if Atlanta doesn't win their division, they should, They 1299 01:10:18,600 --> 01:10:20,800 Speaker 2: should sneak in as a wildcard team if they don't. 1300 01:10:21,280 --> 01:10:25,280 Speaker 2: Not good Now talked about this with Jason Hershorn. Dallas 1301 01:10:25,400 --> 01:10:30,000 Speaker 2: won the NFC East last season, but interestingly enough, for 1302 01:10:30,160 --> 01:10:33,960 Speaker 2: whatever reason, the NFC East hasn't had a repeat champ 1303 01:10:34,080 --> 01:10:38,440 Speaker 2: in twenty years. Twenty years now. The Philadelphia Eagles. 1304 01:10:39,720 --> 01:10:39,760 Speaker 4: Is. 1305 01:10:40,960 --> 01:10:44,559 Speaker 2: I believe the Cowboys obvious their biggest competition. I don't 1306 01:10:44,560 --> 01:10:46,160 Speaker 2: think it'll be the New York Giants. I certainly don't 1307 01:10:46,160 --> 01:10:50,760 Speaker 2: think it'll be the Washington Commanders. And the Eagles looked 1308 01:10:50,840 --> 01:10:52,599 Speaker 2: last year like they were about to repeat. They were 1309 01:10:52,640 --> 01:10:54,559 Speaker 2: ten and one to start, but then they went one 1310 01:10:54,640 --> 01:10:57,000 Speaker 2: in five. The rest of the way in Dallas clinched 1311 01:10:57,040 --> 01:11:00,840 Speaker 2: the crown now seems to be a little in paradise. 1312 01:11:01,320 --> 01:11:04,439 Speaker 2: Dak Prescott his futures up in the air. See Lamb 1313 01:11:04,479 --> 01:11:06,040 Speaker 2: isn't taking care of yet. He's in the final year 1314 01:11:06,040 --> 01:11:09,040 Speaker 2: of a rookie contract. Mike McCarthy is already complaining about 1315 01:11:09,040 --> 01:11:12,160 Speaker 2: the fact that he believes, you know, Jerry Jones is 1316 01:11:12,200 --> 01:11:14,920 Speaker 2: starting to get on his nerves. Welcome to the party, pal, 1317 01:11:15,040 --> 01:11:16,800 Speaker 2: like he didn't know that was going to happen, but 1318 01:11:16,920 --> 01:11:19,960 Speaker 2: it is. It is happening, and so we'll find out 1319 01:11:20,920 --> 01:11:23,400 Speaker 2: if for the first time in twenty years, there is 1320 01:11:23,479 --> 01:11:30,040 Speaker 2: a repeat champ in the NFC East. Another drought and 1321 01:11:30,120 --> 01:11:34,080 Speaker 2: this is the longest, well technically not the longest of 1322 01:11:34,120 --> 01:11:37,960 Speaker 2: all the droughts, but the longest in terms of a 1323 01:11:38,000 --> 01:11:41,000 Speaker 2: team who's had success in the past. The Dolphins have 1324 01:11:41,160 --> 01:11:45,280 Speaker 2: gone twenty three years since winning a playoff game. Last 1325 01:11:45,320 --> 01:11:48,479 Speaker 2: time they won it was y two K the two 1326 01:11:48,520 --> 01:11:52,439 Speaker 2: thousand season. Now, the Dolphins have made the playoffs five 1327 01:11:52,520 --> 01:11:55,639 Speaker 2: times in the last twenty three years, but every single 1328 01:11:55,800 --> 01:11:59,799 Speaker 2: time the Dolphins have made the playoffs, they were bounced 1329 01:11:59,800 --> 01:12:03,840 Speaker 2: in the wildcard round. Maybe this is the year Miami 1330 01:12:03,920 --> 01:12:07,960 Speaker 2: finally makes some noise in the postseason. Why well, they've 1331 01:12:08,040 --> 01:12:11,840 Speaker 2: gotten to the postseason consecutive years under coach Mike McDaniel, 1332 01:12:13,360 --> 01:12:16,599 Speaker 2: and I think they have an explosive offense, which they 1333 01:12:16,920 --> 01:12:18,960 Speaker 2: led the league in yardage and finished second in scoring. 1334 01:12:19,080 --> 01:12:22,920 Speaker 2: Last year, Tua led the NFL in passing yards Tyreek 1335 01:12:23,000 --> 01:12:26,320 Speaker 2: Hill first and receiving yards, and Miami showed that they 1336 01:12:26,320 --> 01:12:27,720 Speaker 2: could put up points with the best of them. They 1337 01:12:27,760 --> 01:12:32,280 Speaker 2: put up seventy against Denver. However, then they get in 1338 01:12:32,880 --> 01:12:37,000 Speaker 2: a three game losing streak, including the wildcard playoff loss 1339 01:12:37,000 --> 01:12:39,320 Speaker 2: at Kansas City was about eighty million degrees below zero. 1340 01:12:40,520 --> 01:12:43,600 Speaker 2: So the Dolphins didn't waste a lot of time this 1341 01:12:43,720 --> 01:12:47,120 Speaker 2: year in engaging in a fair amount of turnover. They 1342 01:12:47,240 --> 01:12:48,960 Speaker 2: just did. And I'm not going to name all the 1343 01:12:49,120 --> 01:12:52,000 Speaker 2: changes they made, but suffice it to say there was 1344 01:12:52,080 --> 01:12:55,559 Speaker 2: a lot of turnover in Miami. Finally, my beloved Detroit Lions, 1345 01:12:55,600 --> 01:12:57,920 Speaker 2: the team I covered pre and post from ninety eight 1346 01:12:57,920 --> 01:13:02,479 Speaker 2: to eight. They had a tremendous breakout year. The Lions 1347 01:13:02,520 --> 01:13:05,639 Speaker 2: are one of four NFL franchises that have never made 1348 01:13:05,640 --> 01:13:09,240 Speaker 2: it to the Super Bowl. Now, they actually won for 1349 01:13:09,520 --> 01:13:14,639 Speaker 2: NFL championships prior to the super Bowl era. But super 1350 01:13:14,680 --> 01:13:17,000 Speaker 2: Bowl won, which was played in nineteen sixty seven, and 1351 01:13:17,320 --> 01:13:20,519 Speaker 2: now obviously we are in the super Bowl era. Lions 1352 01:13:20,560 --> 01:13:23,960 Speaker 2: have never even been back to the super Bowl. They 1353 01:13:24,080 --> 01:13:26,920 Speaker 2: got to the NFC Championship game last season, and I 1354 01:13:27,000 --> 01:13:29,960 Speaker 2: don't think they'll ever forget they blew a seventeen point 1355 01:13:30,040 --> 01:13:33,680 Speaker 2: lead against San Francisco. But what it showed was is 1356 01:13:33,840 --> 01:13:37,760 Speaker 2: his team has the potential to do serious damage and 1357 01:13:37,840 --> 01:13:39,639 Speaker 2: they have the potential to make it back. 1358 01:13:40,400 --> 01:13:40,599 Speaker 3: Now. 1359 01:13:41,280 --> 01:13:43,320 Speaker 2: They won both their playoff games at home. They caught 1360 01:13:43,360 --> 01:13:45,320 Speaker 2: a break there and they had to win a game 1361 01:13:45,360 --> 01:13:47,280 Speaker 2: on the road, and if they don't win their division, 1362 01:13:47,320 --> 01:13:51,280 Speaker 2: and you know, Green Bay's lurking. But Detroit was smart 1363 01:13:51,320 --> 01:13:54,040 Speaker 2: and they were able to retain their offensive coordinator Ben 1364 01:13:54,120 --> 01:13:57,280 Speaker 2: Johnson and their defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn. They were both 1365 01:13:57,360 --> 01:13:59,600 Speaker 2: hot coaching candidates. But they're back in Detroit for at 1366 01:13:59,680 --> 01:14:02,400 Speaker 2: least one more season. They've taken care of Jared Goff, 1367 01:14:02,960 --> 01:14:06,639 Speaker 2: they got a Monroe Saint Ron back. They signed Pine 1368 01:14:06,760 --> 01:14:10,280 Speaker 2: Sewel to an extension their stud tackle. There were a 1369 01:14:10,320 --> 01:14:14,640 Speaker 2: couple of departures. CJ. Gardner, Johnson's gone, but look, the 1370 01:14:14,760 --> 01:14:18,280 Speaker 2: front office had another good draft, and they've bolstered their 1371 01:14:18,760 --> 01:14:22,719 Speaker 2: secondary with free agency. So after San Francisco to actually 1372 01:14:22,800 --> 01:14:25,680 Speaker 2: Detroit here in Las Vegas has the best odds at 1373 01:14:25,800 --> 01:14:28,599 Speaker 2: multiple sports books to make it out of the NFC. 1374 01:14:29,800 --> 01:14:33,600 Speaker 2: Considering they had a twenty four to seven lead in 1375 01:14:33,760 --> 01:14:39,000 Speaker 2: San Francisco on the road, it's realistic to believe they 1376 01:14:39,080 --> 01:14:42,000 Speaker 2: could represent their conference next year. So those are your 1377 01:14:42,040 --> 01:14:44,960 Speaker 2: five droughts. Detroit's never been to a Super Bowl? Can 1378 01:14:45,040 --> 01:14:47,720 Speaker 2: they break that drought? Can Miami win a playoff game 1379 01:14:48,520 --> 01:14:51,599 Speaker 2: after twenty three years? Can anybody repeat in the NFC 1380 01:14:51,680 --> 01:14:54,960 Speaker 2: East after twenty years? Mike, the Falcons six years without 1381 01:14:55,000 --> 01:14:57,640 Speaker 2: a playoff appearance. At least get a wild card. And 1382 01:14:57,720 --> 01:15:01,639 Speaker 2: of course the New York Jets you heard me mentioned earlier, 1383 01:15:02,280 --> 01:15:04,760 Speaker 2: But I think the NBA is better when the New 1384 01:15:04,840 --> 01:15:09,280 Speaker 2: York Knicks are better. Hey, you cannot tell me that 1385 01:15:09,439 --> 01:15:12,320 Speaker 2: if the New York Jets make a run in the playoffs, 1386 01:15:12,680 --> 01:15:14,920 Speaker 2: they're not going to capture a lot of attention, and 1387 01:15:15,080 --> 01:15:17,160 Speaker 2: not just from people who are in the New York market. 1388 01:15:17,320 --> 01:15:20,400 Speaker 2: This is kind of a team that clearly has a 1389 01:15:20,880 --> 01:15:24,320 Speaker 2: national following and certainly a big one in New York, 1390 01:15:24,360 --> 01:15:27,519 Speaker 2: the number one media market and let's not, of course, 1391 01:15:27,560 --> 01:15:30,840 Speaker 2: forget there. Believe it or not, eighty one year old 1392 01:15:31,000 --> 01:15:35,080 Speaker 2: erstwhile Super Bowl champ quarterback Joe Namath will be lurking, 1393 01:15:35,439 --> 01:15:38,639 Speaker 2: and that in itself might be worth the price of admission. 1394 01:15:39,240 --> 01:15:42,800 Speaker 2: So let's keep an eye on that. Okay, let's keep 1395 01:15:42,840 --> 01:15:46,120 Speaker 2: an eye on that. That that might actually be fun 1396 01:15:46,360 --> 01:15:51,519 Speaker 2: to watch. Coming up, we continue with the Bernie Fratterle Show. 1397 01:15:52,200 --> 01:15:54,880 Speaker 2: And by the way, I know we got some bad 1398 01:15:54,960 --> 01:15:59,040 Speaker 2: news that Joey Chestnut will no longer be competing in 1399 01:15:59,160 --> 01:16:03,479 Speaker 2: the fourth of July hot dog eating contest. Turns out 1400 01:16:04,000 --> 01:16:06,680 Speaker 2: he won't be competing on the fourth of July, sort of. 1401 01:16:07,400 --> 01:16:09,439 Speaker 2: I'll bring you up to data. What's happening there. I'm 1402 01:16:09,479 --> 01:16:11,439 Speaker 2: Bernie Fraddleworre comeing to you live from the Las Vegas 1403 01:16:11,479 --> 01:16:13,920 Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio tarract dot com studios.

One 1408 01:16:26,040 --> 01:16:30,680 Speaker 2: of the great spectacles and entertainment quotients of the day is, 1409 01:16:30,760 --> 01:16:35,080 Speaker 2: of course, the Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest, but this 1410 01:16:35,240 --> 01:16:37,759 Speaker 2: year there will be no Joey Chestnut. He's been barred. 1411 01:16:38,880 --> 01:16:43,240 Speaker 2: He received a van for technically violating of contractual obligation. 1412 01:16:43,360 --> 01:16:44,800 Speaker 2: Now he has this side of the story, which we 1413 01:16:44,880 --> 01:16:47,240 Speaker 2: might get to you later in the show. Schey, you 1414 01:16:47,320 --> 01:16:49,280 Speaker 2: had some thoughts on this, and you have a little 1415 01:16:50,120 --> 01:16:52,880 Speaker 2: funny anecdote, I guess regarding the hot Dog Eating Contest. 1416 01:16:53,160 --> 01:16:54,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, so it's obviously a big deal. 1417 01:16:55,040 --> 01:16:58,680 Speaker 5: Everyone watches it, everyone loves it, and food eating and 1418 01:16:58,760 --> 01:17:01,800 Speaker 5: food competition has always been something that's kind of my 1419 01:17:02,000 --> 01:17:05,200 Speaker 5: friends loved and we watched so many random guys just 1420 01:17:05,240 --> 01:17:07,880 Speaker 5: to food challenges, for instance, like the nine to nine 1421 01:17:07,920 --> 01:17:11,920 Speaker 5: to nine challenges a big thing right now. But me 1422 01:17:12,040 --> 01:17:15,519 Speaker 5: and my friends would have our own Nathan's Hot Dog 1423 01:17:15,560 --> 01:17:17,720 Speaker 5: Eating Contest on the fourth of July for three years, 1424 01:17:17,720 --> 01:17:19,240 Speaker 5: and it was my volleyball team that would do it, 1425 01:17:20,040 --> 01:17:23,160 Speaker 5: and we would always mimic it and try to get 1426 01:17:23,400 --> 01:17:26,519 Speaker 5: at least what the last person was always trying, like 1427 01:17:26,600 --> 01:17:29,679 Speaker 5: the last person to finish the Nathan's Eating Contest would 1428 01:17:29,720 --> 01:17:32,479 Speaker 5: get like twenty three or something like that, and we 1429 01:17:32,560 --> 01:17:34,600 Speaker 5: would try to get twenty three. But none of us 1430 01:17:34,640 --> 01:17:37,599 Speaker 5: will get anywhere close to that. But then my friends 1431 01:17:37,640 --> 01:17:41,120 Speaker 5: started just swallowing hot dogs full without eating them, So 1432 01:17:41,240 --> 01:17:43,800 Speaker 5: then it turned into how many hot dogs can you 1433 01:17:43,880 --> 01:17:48,200 Speaker 5: swallow full without chewing it? So this was absolutely absurd. 1434 01:17:48,280 --> 01:17:50,880 Speaker 5: But then one of my friends he ended up actually 1435 01:17:51,000 --> 01:17:54,200 Speaker 5: throwing up full hot dogs because he wouldn't chew him. 1436 01:17:54,520 --> 01:17:56,160 Speaker 5: So it turned into this whole health hazard. I do 1437 01:17:56,280 --> 01:17:58,240 Speaker 5: not recommend doing this, by the way, if you're out there, 1438 01:17:58,360 --> 01:18:01,840 Speaker 5: but yeah, I'll try this. It's definitely it's definitely one 1439 01:18:01,880 --> 01:18:04,840 Speaker 5: of the better fun stories, especially if you're in high 1440 01:18:04,880 --> 01:18:07,639 Speaker 5: school and you want to you want to try something. 1441 01:18:08,360 --> 01:18:12,880 Speaker 2: So here's what's interesting. It turns out that upon finding 1442 01:18:12,920 --> 01:18:18,280 Speaker 2: out that that Joey Chestnut was I'm going to say 1443 01:18:18,320 --> 01:18:23,160 Speaker 2: this in air quotes banned from the Nathan's Hot Dog 1444 01:18:23,280 --> 01:18:27,960 Speaker 2: eating contest. Uh, you know, he took it hard and 1445 01:18:28,040 --> 01:18:30,360 Speaker 2: he broke his silence. He said, I'm not happy with this, 1446 01:18:31,280 --> 01:18:33,200 Speaker 2: and he claimed he does not really have a contract 1447 01:18:33,240 --> 01:18:35,160 Speaker 2: with mL or Nathan blah blah blah blah blah. But 1448 01:18:35,600 --> 01:18:39,000 Speaker 2: here's the deal. Here's the deal. Joey Chesnut has landed 1449 01:18:39,360 --> 01:18:43,479 Speaker 2: and he got a invitation from Al Paso soldiers at 1450 01:18:43,520 --> 01:18:47,040 Speaker 2: Fort Bliss and Texas. They wrote in a social media post, 1451 01:18:47,080 --> 01:18:49,839 Speaker 2: We're gonna invite Joey Chestnut to the fourth of July contest. 1452 01:18:50,200 --> 01:18:52,400 Speaker 2: We would love to invite you to our popcos the 1453 01:18:52,439 --> 01:18:55,640 Speaker 2: Weasel or pop goes the fort July fourth celebration to 1454 01:18:55,680 --> 01:18:57,360 Speaker 2: celebrate with our troops and see if you can take 1455 01:18:57,400 --> 01:19:00,959 Speaker 2: on some of our soldiers in a hot eating contests. 1456 01:19:01,000 --> 01:19:05,519 Speaker 2: And Joey Chestnut says absolutely in response, thank you for it, 1457 01:19:05,600 --> 01:19:09,160 Speaker 2: Bliss Texas for the invitation.

But 1482 01:20:37,000 --> 01:20:40,160 Speaker 2: if you were to count to a billion one second 1483 01:20:40,160 --> 01:20:45,439 Speaker 2: at a time, that twelve days jumps to thirty three years. 1484 01:20:46,439 --> 01:20:51,240 Speaker 2: Twelve days, thirty three years. Well, let's set this back up. 1485 01:20:52,000 --> 01:20:57,960 Speaker 2: Let's go back a bit in time. It's been about 1486 01:20:58,080 --> 01:21:04,080 Speaker 2: nine years since many subscribers of the NFL Sunday ticket 1487 01:21:04,320 --> 01:21:07,880 Speaker 2: suit the National Football League. They ledged the NFL broke 1488 01:21:08,280 --> 01:21:15,679 Speaker 2: anti trust laws, and after quite a while, the arguments 1489 01:21:15,720 --> 01:21:18,560 Speaker 2: began earlier last month in federal court and it's a 1490 01:21:18,600 --> 01:21:21,439 Speaker 2: big deal. Roger Goodell had to testify, Jerry Jones had 1491 01:21:21,439 --> 01:21:26,320 Speaker 2: to testify, and basically, again, this originated from a lawsuit 1492 01:21:26,400 --> 01:21:31,000 Speaker 2: back in twenty fifteen. And you know I was subscriber 1493 01:21:31,080 --> 01:21:33,479 Speaker 2: to the Sunday Ticket. I liked it, right. The truth 1494 01:21:33,520 --> 01:21:39,120 Speaker 2: of the matter is, the plaintiffs, as part of this 1495 01:21:39,200 --> 01:21:42,280 Speaker 2: class action suit, accused the NFL and their teams and 1496 01:21:42,360 --> 01:21:45,439 Speaker 2: all of their network partners of working together to sell 1497 01:21:45,479 --> 01:21:48,800 Speaker 2: the out of market sports package at a very inflated price, 1498 01:21:49,080 --> 01:21:53,280 Speaker 2: which would then restrict the competition. Well, the NFL argued 1499 01:21:53,320 --> 01:21:56,360 Speaker 2: it was able to sell the viewing package under anti 1500 01:21:56,400 --> 01:22:00,080 Speaker 2: trust exemption for broadcasting, and let the arguments begin. The 1501 01:22:00,120 --> 01:22:02,880 Speaker 2: planets were seeking seven billion dollars in damages because it's 1502 01:22:02,920 --> 01:22:05,680 Speaker 2: a federal anti trust case, and if that happens, there 1503 01:22:05,720 --> 01:22:08,840 Speaker 2: could be treble damages if they prevail, which could have 1504 01:22:08,880 --> 01:22:11,599 Speaker 2: been twenty one billion. But let's not get ahead of ourselves. Okay, 1505 01:22:12,800 --> 01:22:15,080 Speaker 2: most of you should know what the NFL Sunday Ticket is, 1506 01:22:15,120 --> 01:22:16,719 Speaker 2: even if you don't get it, because it's been around 1507 01:22:16,760 --> 01:22:21,160 Speaker 2: for thirty years. Basically, I thought it was an ingenious idea. 1508 01:22:21,640 --> 01:22:23,759 Speaker 2: It's a great option for auto market fans. 1509 01:22:24,479 --> 01:22:24,719 Speaker 1: Okay. 1510 01:22:25,080 --> 01:22:27,799 Speaker 2: Let's say you're from Detroit, but you live in Miami. 1511 01:22:28,400 --> 01:22:30,880 Speaker 2: You want to watch Lions games every week. Let's say 1512 01:22:30,880 --> 01:22:32,800 Speaker 2: you're from Miami, but you live in Las Vegas, you 1513 01:22:32,880 --> 01:22:37,920 Speaker 2: want to watch Dolphins games every week. Right, Sports, bars, restaurants, 1514 01:22:38,479 --> 01:22:43,280 Speaker 2: they participate. It helps, you know, bring in subscribers and customers. 1515 01:22:43,400 --> 01:22:47,160 Speaker 2: And until last season, Direct TV exclusively distributed the NFL 1516 01:22:47,240 --> 01:22:50,840 Speaker 2: Sunday ticket in the United States. But then I think 1517 01:22:50,920 --> 01:22:53,240 Speaker 2: YouTube got involved, et cetera, et cetera. Okay, so who 1518 01:22:53,400 --> 01:22:58,280 Speaker 2: was included in a lawsuit? It started out, interestingly enough, 1519 01:22:58,439 --> 01:23:02,439 Speaker 2: I think, originally in somea bar in San Francisco called 1520 01:23:02,520 --> 01:23:06,880 Speaker 2: the Monkey Duck Bar. And last year a district judge 1521 01:23:06,960 --> 01:23:09,559 Speaker 2: ruled the case could proceed as a class action suit 1522 01:23:10,479 --> 01:23:13,040 Speaker 2: because there were two and a half million residential subscribers 1523 01:23:13,080 --> 01:23:19,759 Speaker 2: and forty eight thousand businesses that bought the NFL Sunday 1524 01:23:19,800 --> 01:23:22,760 Speaker 2: ticket going back all the way to twenty eleven. This 1525 01:23:22,920 --> 01:23:25,840 Speaker 2: is a big deal now, one of the arguments. Okay, 1526 01:23:26,400 --> 01:23:29,040 Speaker 2: but the people suing the NFL alleged that their broadcast 1527 01:23:29,120 --> 01:23:33,759 Speaker 2: partners basically worked to suppress competition, which violates the Sherman 1528 01:23:33,800 --> 01:23:37,719 Speaker 2: Ana Trust law. They entered into exclusive agreements that limited 1529 01:23:37,760 --> 01:23:41,160 Speaker 2: fans options. YadA YadA, yah, you get it. The planners 1530 01:23:41,200 --> 01:23:46,599 Speaker 2: claimed that when you have any competitive agreements agreements, well 1531 01:23:46,880 --> 01:23:53,400 Speaker 2: you know you are limiting competition, which again is what 1532 01:23:53,520 --> 01:23:56,639 Speaker 2: the Sherman anti trust law is all about. It's essentially 1533 01:23:58,000 --> 01:23:59,920 Speaker 2: a law that was put in place many many years 1534 01:24:00,080 --> 01:24:04,720 Speaker 2: ago that would prevent businesses from monopolizing simply by their 1535 01:24:04,760 --> 01:24:09,400 Speaker 2: financial might. Now, Roger Goodell said the NFL put the 1536 01:24:09,479 --> 01:24:12,000 Speaker 2: NFL Sunday ticket on DirecTV because it was one of 1537 01:24:12,040 --> 01:24:16,080 Speaker 2: the few platforms that had national distribution. He also referenced 1538 01:24:16,120 --> 01:24:19,280 Speaker 2: that they're he believed there was a very fragmented nature 1539 01:24:19,320 --> 01:24:22,240 Speaker 2: of cable companies and that was the league's reasoning for 1540 01:24:22,280 --> 01:24:26,880 Speaker 2: why the package wasn't available on cable. So the trial 1541 01:24:27,160 --> 01:24:32,439 Speaker 2: began for real on June sixth, and this last Monday, 1542 01:24:33,080 --> 01:24:36,439 Speaker 2: both sides wrapped up their case and I believe the 1543 01:24:36,600 --> 01:24:41,080 Speaker 2: jury got the case on Tuesday or Wednesday. Well guess 1544 01:24:41,120 --> 01:24:46,080 Speaker 2: what happened since then? A jury in US District Court 1545 01:24:47,040 --> 01:24:50,000 Speaker 2: ordered the National Football League to pay more than four 1546 01:24:50,080 --> 01:24:52,640 Speaker 2: point seven billion dollars in damages after ruling that the 1547 01:24:52,760 --> 01:24:57,920 Speaker 2: NFL did in fact violate antitrust laws as they distributed 1548 01:24:57,920 --> 01:25:02,640 Speaker 2: Auto Market Sunday afternoon games on this subscript, which they 1549 01:25:02,720 --> 01:25:11,439 Speaker 2: consider a premium subscription service. So in addition, there were 1550 01:25:11,479 --> 01:25:14,679 Speaker 2: two classes here in this lawsuit. The residential class people 1551 01:25:14,760 --> 01:25:17,560 Speaker 2: like you and me who watch it at home. And 1552 01:25:17,680 --> 01:25:20,920 Speaker 2: then there was a commercial class. Those are folks I 1553 01:25:21,040 --> 01:25:25,240 Speaker 2: believe that own bars and establishments that had the Sunday ticket. 1554 01:25:26,120 --> 01:25:29,439 Speaker 2: So the jury awarded four point seven billion in damages 1555 01:25:29,479 --> 01:25:32,799 Speaker 2: to the residential class and ninety six million in damages 1556 01:25:32,880 --> 01:25:37,360 Speaker 2: to the commercial class. Now this has yet to be adjudicated, 1557 01:25:37,400 --> 01:25:41,400 Speaker 2: but since damages can't be tripled under federal anitrust laws 1558 01:25:42,760 --> 01:25:45,240 Speaker 2: in theory, Again, this is only in theory. I'm not 1559 01:25:45,920 --> 01:25:49,280 Speaker 2: pay attention. Now, the NFL could be liable for up 1560 01:25:49,320 --> 01:25:54,920 Speaker 2: to fourteen billion. So the lawsuit itself represented and covered 1561 01:25:55,000 --> 01:25:57,960 Speaker 2: over two and a half million residential subscribers in forty 1562 01:25:58,000 --> 01:26:01,439 Speaker 2: eight thousand businesses. They pay for the package for Auto 1563 01:26:01,479 --> 01:26:05,200 Speaker 2: Market games over a period of eleven seasons, and the 1564 01:26:05,320 --> 01:26:07,680 Speaker 2: lawsuit claimed the NFL broke in ad trust laws by 1565 01:26:07,720 --> 01:26:13,559 Speaker 2: selling the package at an inflated price. And I always 1566 01:26:13,560 --> 01:26:15,120 Speaker 2: sought a cost a lot, but I just paid it. 1567 01:26:15,160 --> 01:26:17,400 Speaker 2: I didn't think it. He'd think I just didn't think 1568 01:26:17,400 --> 01:26:21,240 Speaker 2: anything right. Of course, the NFL said in a statement 1569 01:26:21,280 --> 01:26:25,040 Speaker 2: they will appeal the verdict. Here's their quote. We are 1570 01:26:25,080 --> 01:26:27,799 Speaker 2: disappointed with the jury's verdict today in the NFL Sunday 1571 01:26:27,840 --> 01:26:32,559 Speaker 2: Ticket class action suit. We continue to believe that our 1572 01:26:32,640 --> 01:26:37,680 Speaker 2: media distribution strategy, which features all NFL games which are 1573 01:26:37,720 --> 01:26:42,320 Speaker 2: broadcast on free over air television markets of the participating teams, 1574 01:26:43,200 --> 01:26:46,160 Speaker 2: and national distribution of our most popular games, which is 1575 01:26:46,200 --> 01:26:49,479 Speaker 2: of course supplanted by many additional choices including red Zone 1576 01:26:49,520 --> 01:26:51,880 Speaker 2: Sunday Ticket in the NFL, is by far the most 1577 01:26:51,920 --> 01:26:54,599 Speaker 2: fan friendly distribution model in all sports and entertainment. 1578 01:26:55,280 --> 01:26:55,519 Speaker 1: Quote. 1579 01:26:55,560 --> 01:26:59,080 Speaker 2: We will certainly contest this decision as we believe that 1580 01:26:59,200 --> 01:27:02,679 Speaker 2: the class action ensued claims in this case are baseless 1581 01:27:02,920 --> 01:27:05,400 Speaker 2: and without merit. We thank the jury for their time 1582 01:27:05,479 --> 01:27:08,719 Speaker 2: in service and for their guidance and oversight from Judge 1583 01:27:08,720 --> 01:27:13,160 Speaker 2: Gutiers throughout the trial. This is delayed till July thirty. 1584 01:27:13,240 --> 01:27:17,280 Speaker 2: First that the next thing you'll hear our post trial motions, 1585 01:27:18,320 --> 01:27:21,240 Speaker 2: and one of the post trial motions will be to 1586 01:27:21,600 --> 01:27:24,960 Speaker 2: ask the Ninth Circuit Court to set aside this verdict 1587 01:27:25,840 --> 01:27:28,680 Speaker 2: now should the NFL end up paying these damages. He 1588 01:27:28,720 --> 01:27:31,120 Speaker 2: would cost. Just will put in some perspective for you. 1589 01:27:31,240 --> 01:27:33,400 Speaker 2: There are thirty two teams in the league. It'll cost 1590 01:27:33,479 --> 01:27:35,680 Speaker 2: each team about four hundred and fifty million dollars each. 1591 01:27:36,720 --> 01:27:40,599 Speaker 2: All right. The playoff's attorney, a gentleman by the name 1592 01:27:40,600 --> 01:27:44,360 Speaker 2: of Bill Carmondy, said, quote, justice was done. The verdict 1593 01:27:44,479 --> 01:27:47,360 Speaker 2: upholds protection for consumers in our class. It was a 1594 01:27:47,439 --> 01:27:52,879 Speaker 2: great day for consumers, all right. In closing remarks, Carmony 1595 01:27:52,960 --> 01:27:56,519 Speaker 2: showed an NFL memo that indicated that the league was 1596 01:27:56,840 --> 01:28:00,920 Speaker 2: exploring a world without the Sunday ticket cable channels whatever 1597 01:28:01,000 --> 01:28:03,960 Speaker 2: Sunday afternoon auto market games that are not showing on 1598 01:28:04,080 --> 01:28:08,639 Speaker 2: Fox or CBS. And the jury took about five hours 1599 01:28:09,000 --> 01:28:13,439 Speaker 2: to deliberate this again, so we have a lawsuit that 1600 01:28:13,600 --> 01:28:18,120 Speaker 2: goes back nine years, originated in twenty fifteen, all from 1601 01:28:18,200 --> 01:28:21,800 Speaker 2: one sports bar. But this is a real thing. This 1602 01:28:21,960 --> 01:28:24,120 Speaker 2: is a real thing coming up. I want to talk 1603 01:28:24,160 --> 01:28:28,680 Speaker 2: to the crew about this because we're consumers, and if 1604 01:28:28,720 --> 01:28:34,960 Speaker 2: I'm not mistaken, last year the price was I don't know, 1605 01:28:35,000 --> 01:28:37,040 Speaker 2: maybe say maybe you can look it up. We'll talk 1606 01:28:37,040 --> 01:28:40,080 Speaker 2: about this coming up in a minute. I want to 1607 01:28:40,080 --> 01:28:41,599 Speaker 2: say it was like three hundred and forty nine bucks. 1608 01:28:42,520 --> 01:28:47,240 Speaker 2: And for me, again, I'm just you know, I'm just 1609 01:28:47,320 --> 01:28:50,840 Speaker 2: spewing here propagate that over seventeen weeks it was what 1610 01:28:51,000 --> 01:28:52,360 Speaker 2: twenty bucks a week to go back and forth. I 1611 01:28:52,640 --> 01:28:55,200 Speaker 2: didn't think much of it. But however, that's not the 1612 01:28:55,240 --> 01:28:57,680 Speaker 2: way the court saw. That's not way the class of 1613 01:28:57,800 --> 01:29:00,479 Speaker 2: people who brought this action against the end fell did. 1614 01:29:01,400 --> 01:29:03,920 Speaker 2: And so I think this is an argument. This is 1615 01:29:03,960 --> 01:29:05,000 Speaker 2: an interesting argument. 1616 01:29:05,840 --> 01:29:07,960 Speaker 1: And look, the. 1617 01:29:08,040 --> 01:29:11,000 Speaker 2: NFL is king, all right. I mean, they originally own 1618 01:29:11,080 --> 01:29:12,479 Speaker 2: one day of the week. Now they owned two days 1619 01:29:12,479 --> 01:29:13,920 Speaker 2: of the week. They damn nearrown any day of the 1620 01:29:13,960 --> 01:29:16,760 Speaker 2: week they're on, just as the NBA. And now they're 1621 01:29:16,880 --> 01:29:19,160 Speaker 2: venturing into Friday and Black Friday, and they'll even be 1622 01:29:19,240 --> 01:29:22,360 Speaker 2: games on Wednesday this year because it's Christmas Day and 1623 01:29:22,439 --> 01:29:24,600 Speaker 2: we're all here to watch it. But when you have 1624 01:29:24,680 --> 01:29:28,240 Speaker 2: a lawsuit of this nature and it's heard by a 1625 01:29:28,360 --> 01:29:30,799 Speaker 2: jury of their peers and they come up with this judgment, 1626 01:29:31,800 --> 01:29:34,439 Speaker 2: this is not a small talking point.

Wow, that's nothing. Sneeze at my, Bernie Friddle. 1639 01:30:14,200 --> 01:30:16,240 Speaker 2: We are comedy live from Las Vegas, Fox Sports Radio 1640 01:30:16,320 --> 01:30:18,880 Speaker 2: Tarract dot Com Studios. Keep it locked right here. You're 1641 01:30:18,920 --> 01:30:21,400 Speaker 2: listening to the Bernie Fraddle Show on Fox Sports Radiow. 1642 01:30:21,439 --> 01:30:23,679 Speaker 2: We're back on the Bernie Fraddle Show, Fox Sports Radio 1643 01:30:23,720 --> 01:30:26,760 Speaker 2: Company live from the Tarrack dot Com studios here in 1644 01:30:27,240 --> 01:30:29,599 Speaker 2: Las Vegas. That remind you we are forty one minutes 1645 01:30:29,640 --> 01:30:33,439 Speaker 2: away from the dance Sensation sweep in the Nation. Of course, 1646 01:30:33,520 --> 01:30:36,760 Speaker 2: what kind of brand new fool of you? Followed by 1647 01:30:37,800 --> 01:30:40,600 Speaker 2: what my name? So before I bring the crew and 1648 01:30:41,000 --> 01:30:44,000 Speaker 2: let's just reset this up with a couple of additional details. 1649 01:30:44,680 --> 01:30:48,920 Speaker 2: As I mentioned, Los Angeles jury sided against the NFL 1650 01:30:49,000 --> 01:30:51,559 Speaker 2: this past week in a class action an I trust 1651 01:30:51,640 --> 01:30:56,840 Speaker 2: lawsuit that was surrounding the NFL Sunday ticket. The verdict 1652 01:30:57,479 --> 01:31:01,280 Speaker 2: NFL four point seven billion to individual fans ninety six 1653 01:31:01,360 --> 01:31:06,320 Speaker 2: million to bars. Lawsuit goes back nine years. Apparently. One 1654 01:31:06,360 --> 01:31:09,439 Speaker 2: of the aspects of the argument has to do with 1655 01:31:09,560 --> 01:31:12,479 Speaker 2: the fact that many fans around the country, they will 1656 01:31:12,479 --> 01:31:15,400 Speaker 2: to watch their own team, whether it's being shown in 1657 01:31:15,439 --> 01:31:18,680 Speaker 2: their own market or not wherever they live, but they 1658 01:31:18,760 --> 01:31:20,560 Speaker 2: may not have the same desire to pay it for 1659 01:31:20,680 --> 01:31:23,960 Speaker 2: all the teams. And their lawsuits said, well, the NFL 1660 01:31:24,040 --> 01:31:27,040 Speaker 2: didn't give them that option. That's what drove the price up. 1661 01:31:27,439 --> 01:31:32,800 Speaker 2: Parlia trial revealed allegedly also that apparently, and again I 1662 01:31:32,960 --> 01:31:36,400 Speaker 2: wasn't in the courtroom, I don't know. I'm reporting what's 1663 01:31:36,479 --> 01:31:42,360 Speaker 2: been reported by reputable people that that ESPN actually proposed 1664 01:31:42,400 --> 01:31:45,400 Speaker 2: to the NFL they could take over the NFL Sunday 1665 01:31:45,400 --> 01:31:49,240 Speaker 2: ticket from Direct TV after last season, and they would 1666 01:31:49,800 --> 01:31:53,559 Speaker 2: they would price it at seventy dollars and then offer 1667 01:31:53,880 --> 01:31:59,479 Speaker 2: packages for individual teams as it were not. The NFL 1668 01:31:59,520 --> 01:32:03,080 Speaker 2: allegedly declined that proposal and went with YouTube TV and 1669 01:32:03,160 --> 01:32:06,599 Speaker 2: the lowest price for an NFL Sunday ticket on YouTube 1670 01:32:06,640 --> 01:32:09,880 Speaker 2: last year, as I recalled, was three hundred and forty 1671 01:32:09,960 --> 01:32:14,840 Speaker 2: nine dollars. Now, don't expect to collect any time soon. 1672 01:32:15,560 --> 01:32:18,160 Speaker 2: But of the two point four million people who purchased 1673 01:32:18,240 --> 01:32:20,840 Speaker 2: the Sunday Ticket, if this judgment were to go through, 1674 01:32:20,840 --> 01:32:23,960 Speaker 2: they all collected by nineteen hundred bucks, and the forty 1675 01:32:24,000 --> 01:32:27,439 Speaker 2: eight thousand bar owners would get about two grand. Don't 1676 01:32:27,479 --> 01:32:30,080 Speaker 2: hold your breath. As I mentioned, there are a lot 1677 01:32:30,120 --> 01:32:32,439 Speaker 2: of hurdles to clear before the NFL decides to pay 1678 01:32:32,479 --> 01:32:35,639 Speaker 2: these planeffs. You got a full month before there's postrial motions, 1679 01:32:35,680 --> 01:32:38,799 Speaker 2: and you can be sure that the NFL will appeal. 1680 01:32:39,160 --> 01:32:41,120 Speaker 2: So I think this is going to last months and years. 1681 01:32:41,520 --> 01:32:44,599 Speaker 2: But the way we consume these products now, and given 1682 01:32:44,640 --> 01:32:48,480 Speaker 2: the incredible popularity of the NFL, this is a discussion 1683 01:32:48,520 --> 01:32:53,240 Speaker 2: you can't ignore. Chef. Let's start with you. Are you 1684 01:32:53,479 --> 01:32:56,960 Speaker 2: a customer of the NFL Sunday Ticket and have you 1685 01:32:57,120 --> 01:32:59,160 Speaker 2: followed this lawsuit and do you have an opinion. 1686 01:33:00,120 --> 01:33:02,960 Speaker 6: I'm not currently a subscriber of Sunday Ticket because I'm 1687 01:33:03,000 --> 01:33:05,920 Speaker 6: an LA Rams fan, so all games are available for 1688 01:33:06,320 --> 01:33:08,120 Speaker 6: free on over the air television here and. 1689 01:33:09,160 --> 01:33:13,160 Speaker 1: Your fanis but go ahead, but I have considered. 1690 01:33:12,720 --> 01:33:13,439 Speaker 7: Buying it in the past. 1691 01:33:13,479 --> 01:33:15,519 Speaker 6: I lived in North Carolina when I worked for Learfield 1692 01:33:15,560 --> 01:33:17,640 Speaker 6: for five years, so in watching Rams games, it was 1693 01:33:17,680 --> 01:33:20,280 Speaker 6: something that I often needed. But it was cheaper to 1694 01:33:20,360 --> 01:33:23,120 Speaker 6: go to a bar and buy beer than it was 1695 01:33:23,280 --> 01:33:26,439 Speaker 6: to subscribe to Sunday Ticket, So I never actually pulled 1696 01:33:26,439 --> 01:33:28,280 Speaker 6: the trigger in doing it, because again, was it four 1697 01:33:28,360 --> 01:33:31,840 Speaker 6: hundred dollars for the season is a very very steep price, 1698 01:33:31,960 --> 01:33:35,719 Speaker 6: especially since red zone is available. For me, it's forty 1699 01:33:35,760 --> 01:33:38,040 Speaker 6: dollars for the season, and that gives me all the 1700 01:33:38,400 --> 01:33:41,360 Speaker 6: football I need on a Sunday besides the Rams games. 1701 01:33:41,439 --> 01:33:46,240 Speaker 6: So Sunday Ticket as a value product was never something 1702 01:33:46,320 --> 01:33:50,040 Speaker 6: that I saw appealing. But with the settlement possibly mean 1703 01:33:50,120 --> 01:33:53,640 Speaker 6: it or not settlement, but a verdict meaning a possibility 1704 01:33:53,760 --> 01:33:57,000 Speaker 6: that games all the cart could be sold, that would 1705 01:33:57,000 --> 01:34:00,240 Speaker 6: be something I would actually very much consider, and I'm 1706 01:34:00,720 --> 01:34:04,879 Speaker 6: very much hopeful that the league will make more options 1707 01:34:04,920 --> 01:34:08,160 Speaker 6: available than having to buy the complete package, because there 1708 01:34:08,200 --> 01:34:10,600 Speaker 6: are a lot of great games on, especially in that 1709 01:34:11,200 --> 01:34:14,000 Speaker 6: one o'clock eastern ten a Pacific window. There's like what 1710 01:34:14,240 --> 01:34:16,640 Speaker 6: ten games on at the same time. You see them all, 1711 01:34:17,160 --> 01:34:19,240 Speaker 6: and if there's a very compelling matchup that's not being 1712 01:34:19,280 --> 01:34:21,120 Speaker 6: shown here in LA. I'd love to just buy one 1713 01:34:21,280 --> 01:34:24,960 Speaker 6: game without having to subscribe for the full season. So 1714 01:34:26,320 --> 01:34:29,560 Speaker 6: my interest in this lawsuit is in regards to what 1715 01:34:29,760 --> 01:34:32,360 Speaker 6: changes will be made to the package in order to 1716 01:34:32,400 --> 01:34:34,880 Speaker 6: make that happen. As for the people, you know, getting 1717 01:34:35,120 --> 01:34:40,280 Speaker 6: compensated for damages being awarded by the jury, again, never subscribed, 1718 01:34:40,320 --> 01:34:42,080 Speaker 6: so that was never a concern of mine. But hey, 1719 01:34:42,960 --> 01:34:44,960 Speaker 6: sign on to that class action if you can, is 1720 01:34:45,040 --> 01:34:45,519 Speaker 6: my advice. 1721 01:34:47,720 --> 01:34:52,519 Speaker 2: I think it's going to be argued for years. Share 1722 01:34:52,640 --> 01:34:53,120 Speaker 2: your thoughts. 1723 01:34:55,120 --> 01:34:58,280 Speaker 5: Yeah, So, I mean I was never I have my 1724 01:34:58,400 --> 01:35:02,840 Speaker 5: own ways of watching the NFL, but I was never 1725 01:35:03,160 --> 01:35:05,360 Speaker 5: I would never have to buy or pay for that. 1726 01:35:06,479 --> 01:35:08,920 Speaker 2: But no, I won't tell anybody, man. 1727 01:35:10,960 --> 01:35:13,600 Speaker 5: But what I think is really interesting is if the 1728 01:35:13,760 --> 01:35:16,960 Speaker 5: NFL does have to end up paying damages, it's gonna 1729 01:35:16,960 --> 01:35:20,439 Speaker 5: cost the teams. So it's it's it's not necessarily the 1730 01:35:20,600 --> 01:35:23,400 Speaker 5: NFL that's really gonna be biting the bullet with this one. 1731 01:35:23,560 --> 01:35:26,280 Speaker 5: It's it could cost the estreme approximately fourmed with forty 1732 01:35:26,360 --> 01:35:28,599 Speaker 5: nine points six million is a number I'm seeing right now, 1733 01:35:28,840 --> 01:35:29,360 Speaker 5: right right. 1734 01:35:29,360 --> 01:35:30,080 Speaker 1: Right, every team. 1735 01:35:30,280 --> 01:35:34,840 Speaker 5: So this could definitely affect not only the NFL, but 1736 01:35:35,280 --> 01:35:37,120 Speaker 5: a lot of the teams within it, and there's a 1737 01:35:37,200 --> 01:35:39,040 Speaker 5: ton of teams that can pay this, don't get me wrong, 1738 01:35:39,160 --> 01:35:41,439 Speaker 5: very easily. But there's some other teams that don't have 1739 01:35:41,520 --> 01:35:43,920 Speaker 5: his big market. It's like Jerry Jones easily could do this, 1740 01:35:44,000 --> 01:35:46,720 Speaker 5: and he's actually one of the bigger people that's kind 1741 01:35:46,720 --> 01:35:47,280 Speaker 5: of voicing it. 1742 01:35:47,479 --> 01:35:51,639 Speaker 1: But I like it. It's just a lot of money. 1743 01:35:51,840 --> 01:35:55,479 Speaker 5: And and again, if you did have Sunday ticket, go ahead, 1744 01:35:55,520 --> 01:35:58,920 Speaker 5: and I would definitely sign up for this, but I 1745 01:35:59,400 --> 01:36:01,680 Speaker 5: just again, and there's so many loopholes, and there's so 1746 01:36:01,760 --> 01:36:04,800 Speaker 5: much money involved, and there's so many big executives with 1747 01:36:05,120 --> 01:36:08,200 Speaker 5: so much power that I really do think you said 1748 01:36:08,200 --> 01:36:08,599 Speaker 5: it yourself. 1749 01:36:08,640 --> 01:36:10,120 Speaker 1: It's gonna take so long for it to. 1750 01:36:10,200 --> 01:36:12,920 Speaker 2: Just Finallyeah, it's a civil matter, I mean exactly. And 1751 01:36:13,000 --> 01:36:14,599 Speaker 2: by the way, I want to read a tweet from 1752 01:36:14,960 --> 01:36:18,519 Speaker 2: Brian McCarry. He's a listener to our show. He says, 1753 01:36:18,560 --> 01:36:20,600 Speaker 2: a great show is always looking at what the overseas 1754 01:36:20,680 --> 01:36:25,040 Speaker 2: packages are nuts. So he brings up a point that 1755 01:36:25,200 --> 01:36:27,519 Speaker 2: I probably should have interjected, because I did find out 1756 01:36:27,600 --> 01:36:32,160 Speaker 2: last year that in other countries they do offer alternative packages, 1757 01:36:32,600 --> 01:36:35,240 Speaker 2: sort of like an a la carte package. Let's say 1758 01:36:35,240 --> 01:36:39,799 Speaker 2: you're living overseas and you know you're a huge Arizona 1759 01:36:39,880 --> 01:36:42,080 Speaker 2: Cardinals fan and you just want to see their games. 1760 01:36:42,960 --> 01:36:45,880 Speaker 2: It's my understanding those types of OLA card packages are 1761 01:36:46,080 --> 01:36:50,840 Speaker 2: offered overseas but not here nationally. And that came up, 1762 01:36:51,479 --> 01:36:55,120 Speaker 2: I believe, you know, as part of the arguments on 1763 01:36:55,240 --> 01:36:59,920 Speaker 2: both sides in the lawsuit. So I'm a slappy, Okay, 1764 01:37:00,200 --> 01:37:03,920 Speaker 2: I didn't. Honestly, I missed out on this one. I 1765 01:37:04,040 --> 01:37:07,200 Speaker 2: paid the three forty nine. I sit there with my notepad. 1766 01:37:07,880 --> 01:37:10,240 Speaker 2: I get off the air at three am every Saturday 1767 01:37:10,520 --> 01:37:12,479 Speaker 2: night and in a Sunday morning, and I'm up by 1768 01:37:12,560 --> 01:37:15,640 Speaker 2: game time, and I've taken notes because if I'm going 1769 01:37:15,680 --> 01:37:17,160 Speaker 2: to talk about this stuff on the air, I kind 1770 01:37:17,160 --> 01:37:19,080 Speaker 2: of like to see what's happening as supposed to hear 1771 01:37:19,120 --> 01:37:23,200 Speaker 2: in a third party. Right. It's like when Tyson bit 1772 01:37:23,840 --> 01:37:26,839 Speaker 2: Hollyfield's air. I was able to talk about the following 1773 01:37:26,880 --> 01:37:29,880 Speaker 2: Monday because I'd seen it live, and so they got me. 1774 01:37:30,040 --> 01:37:32,680 Speaker 2: I mean, the NFL's kind of got me. But when 1775 01:37:32,760 --> 01:37:36,800 Speaker 2: you find out that there's a large class of people 1776 01:37:36,840 --> 01:37:39,680 Speaker 2: who genuinely feel they're being gouged, and this makes it 1777 01:37:39,760 --> 01:37:42,720 Speaker 2: to a district court and the arguments are hurt, and 1778 01:37:42,880 --> 01:37:46,080 Speaker 2: the court you know, prevails on the side of the 1779 01:37:46,160 --> 01:37:50,240 Speaker 2: plaintiffs when there's an argument to be had here. Mark Ramsey, 1780 01:37:50,360 --> 01:37:51,840 Speaker 2: what are your thoughts on this old matter. 1781 01:37:52,439 --> 01:37:56,000 Speaker 10: I'm of the mindset that I would not want my 1782 01:37:57,000 --> 01:38:01,000 Speaker 10: favorite team to be held hostage buy something like this 1783 01:38:01,200 --> 01:38:04,759 Speaker 10: where I the only I'm going to see the games 1784 01:38:04,840 --> 01:38:07,400 Speaker 10: is if I have to pay a certain price and 1785 01:38:08,520 --> 01:38:13,000 Speaker 10: certain you know, companies will get what they can out 1786 01:38:13,240 --> 01:38:16,120 Speaker 10: of the subscribers. And I wouldn't want to be one 1787 01:38:16,120 --> 01:38:19,479 Speaker 10: of those people that have to literally pay through the nose, 1788 01:38:19,560 --> 01:38:21,360 Speaker 10: you know, arm and leg all those kind of jokes 1789 01:38:21,640 --> 01:38:23,960 Speaker 10: to be able to see my favorite games. And so 1790 01:38:24,280 --> 01:38:28,120 Speaker 10: this sort of proves my point that the gouging was there, 1791 01:38:28,680 --> 01:38:33,479 Speaker 10: and so restaurants that play games and then the actual 1792 01:38:34,000 --> 01:38:39,400 Speaker 10: individual fans have been gouged. And now the lawsuit, I 1793 01:38:39,479 --> 01:38:43,280 Speaker 10: guess prevailed that they were being gouged. And now there's 1794 01:38:43,360 --> 01:38:47,000 Speaker 10: the whole having to litigate how everyone's going to be 1795 01:38:47,120 --> 01:38:50,519 Speaker 10: paid once this thing gets, you know, settled in court. 1796 01:38:52,800 --> 01:38:54,280 Speaker 2: And I think we're I think we're in for a 1797 01:38:54,320 --> 01:38:56,880 Speaker 2: long haul here. Both sides are lowered up pretty good, 1798 01:38:57,160 --> 01:38:58,800 Speaker 2: and I you know, the NFL is just not going 1799 01:38:58,840 --> 01:39:01,120 Speaker 2: to bend over on this one. That's just not how 1800 01:39:01,120 --> 01:39:08,000 Speaker 2: they do business. And I think I think as this 1801 01:39:08,200 --> 01:39:12,479 Speaker 2: lawsuit goes on, the NFL will do their best to 1802 01:39:13,520 --> 01:39:17,960 Speaker 2: drag it out. Right. Look, they've got us. They own 1803 01:39:18,040 --> 01:39:19,400 Speaker 2: a day of the week, they own two days of 1804 01:39:19,439 --> 01:39:20,840 Speaker 2: the week, they might own three days of the week. 1805 01:39:21,640 --> 01:39:24,320 Speaker 2: And you know, the players may not want to hear this. 1806 01:39:24,400 --> 01:39:27,679 Speaker 2: But the way I rationalized it was for three forty nine. 1807 01:39:28,320 --> 01:39:31,080 Speaker 2: You propagate that over seventeen weeks. It's basically twenty game, 1808 01:39:31,160 --> 01:39:33,280 Speaker 2: twenty dollars a week, and I'm seeing every game. But 1809 01:39:33,400 --> 01:39:35,200 Speaker 2: if you find out you know that a lot of 1810 01:39:35,200 --> 01:39:36,800 Speaker 2: people don't agree with me that, hey, they don't want 1811 01:39:36,800 --> 01:39:38,320 Speaker 2: to see every game. They don't want to see their team. 1812 01:39:38,760 --> 01:39:42,320 Speaker 2: The ideological purpose behind this in the first place was 1813 01:39:42,479 --> 01:39:47,360 Speaker 2: to create, you know, out of market fans who are 1814 01:39:47,920 --> 01:39:50,960 Speaker 2: relocated from where their hometown team was. For instance, I 1815 01:39:50,960 --> 01:39:53,800 Speaker 2: have a friend who lives in Savannah, Georgia, huge Lions fan. 1816 01:39:54,240 --> 01:39:56,400 Speaker 2: If he wants to see Lions games, it's going to 1817 01:39:56,479 --> 01:39:59,519 Speaker 2: have to pay, and maybe it's worth it, maybe it's not. 1818 01:39:59,640 --> 01:40:01,080 Speaker 2: So let me go around the room one more time. 1819 01:40:01,080 --> 01:40:03,880 Speaker 2: Do you think there's a chance the NFL follows suit 1820 01:40:03,920 --> 01:40:06,000 Speaker 2: from what they do internationally and say, you know what, 1821 01:40:06,200 --> 01:40:08,680 Speaker 2: maybe we need to create an OLA card system so 1822 01:40:08,760 --> 01:40:10,439 Speaker 2: you just pay for the games you want to see. 1823 01:40:11,040 --> 01:40:13,920 Speaker 2: Let's start with you, chef. You think that's where this 1824 01:40:14,080 --> 01:40:15,840 Speaker 2: ends up. Maybe the NFL just says, Okay, let's do 1825 01:40:15,880 --> 01:40:16,800 Speaker 2: it this way after all I do. 1826 01:40:16,920 --> 01:40:19,240 Speaker 6: I mean at this point, it's in their best interest 1827 01:40:19,400 --> 01:40:21,760 Speaker 6: to do so, because it's been a bad look for 1828 01:40:21,840 --> 01:40:24,760 Speaker 6: the league, knowing that they've been charging as much as 1829 01:40:24,800 --> 01:40:27,040 Speaker 6: they have have been refusing to budget. I think it 1830 01:40:27,120 --> 01:40:29,680 Speaker 6: was ESPN who said they were willing to offer it 1831 01:40:29,760 --> 01:40:34,280 Speaker 6: at a much cheaper price for the package. So the NFL, 1832 01:40:35,600 --> 01:40:39,040 Speaker 6: with how they've handled the package in the past, I 1833 01:40:39,080 --> 01:40:41,720 Speaker 6: think just to create some goodwill and actually make it 1834 01:40:41,760 --> 01:40:43,400 Speaker 6: seem like they're for the fans, it would be a 1835 01:40:43,439 --> 01:40:46,160 Speaker 6: great pr move. And I think it would also add 1836 01:40:46,320 --> 01:40:49,680 Speaker 6: extra extra subscribe subscribers as well, because again I never 1837 01:40:49,760 --> 01:40:52,599 Speaker 6: thought about subscribing to it because paying four hundred dollars 1838 01:40:52,920 --> 01:40:54,800 Speaker 6: for the season was just it was too much and 1839 01:40:54,880 --> 01:40:58,120 Speaker 6: not something I felt was worth it. But a certain 1840 01:40:58,160 --> 01:41:00,360 Speaker 6: weekend and there's a game not being shown in my area, 1841 01:41:00,439 --> 01:41:02,960 Speaker 6: but it's a very compelling matchup. Yeah, I'd fork over 1842 01:41:03,160 --> 01:41:07,160 Speaker 6: you know, five ten dollars, maybe fifteen to twenty dollars 1843 01:41:07,240 --> 01:41:09,880 Speaker 6: even depending on how they price it. But if I 1844 01:41:09,960 --> 01:41:12,400 Speaker 6: have the choice just to buy each individual game or 1845 01:41:12,439 --> 01:41:14,960 Speaker 6: maybe a season package for one team, it'd be something 1846 01:41:15,000 --> 01:41:17,479 Speaker 6: I would actually consider doing when I never would have 1847 01:41:17,560 --> 01:41:20,080 Speaker 6: considered buying the package before because of its cost. So 1848 01:41:20,560 --> 01:41:22,560 Speaker 6: I think it's in the NFL's best interest to do it, 1849 01:41:22,680 --> 01:41:26,120 Speaker 6: and I'm I'm pretty sure that there's a good chance 1850 01:41:26,240 --> 01:41:28,519 Speaker 6: that the lawsuit will force the NFL to do it 1851 01:41:28,600 --> 01:41:28,920 Speaker 6: as well. 1852 01:41:30,880 --> 01:41:32,479 Speaker 2: You know, I don't think it forced me to do it, 1853 01:41:32,600 --> 01:41:34,800 Speaker 2: but the NFL may regroup, but you know, I think 1854 01:41:34,840 --> 01:41:36,400 Speaker 2: they're going to be obstinate. I don't think they will 1855 01:41:36,439 --> 01:41:40,400 Speaker 2: do that anytime soon. Here's why, because we've already proven, 1856 01:41:40,520 --> 01:41:43,160 Speaker 2: I mean, with the two point four million subscribers, we've 1857 01:41:43,160 --> 01:41:45,360 Speaker 2: already proven we're willing to pay the three forty nine. 1858 01:41:46,200 --> 01:41:49,240 Speaker 2: Maybe didn't know any better, shay your thoughts. You think 1859 01:41:49,240 --> 01:41:50,799 Speaker 2: the NFL will alter their product? 1860 01:41:51,200 --> 01:41:54,200 Speaker 5: So yeah, the ESPN proposal, it was like a seventy 1861 01:41:54,240 --> 01:41:56,439 Speaker 5: dollars package or was it time by team package? 1862 01:41:56,840 --> 01:41:57,000 Speaker 2: Right? 1863 01:41:57,160 --> 01:42:00,439 Speaker 5: So I mean I'm all for a team by team package. 1864 01:42:00,439 --> 01:42:02,160 Speaker 5: I'm sure there's a lot of people that would like that. 1865 01:42:02,360 --> 01:42:04,200 Speaker 5: There's some people that just want to see their team. 1866 01:42:04,960 --> 01:42:07,000 Speaker 5: But the issue with that is is a lot of 1867 01:42:07,040 --> 01:42:10,840 Speaker 5: people my age are watching football for fantasy purposes and 1868 01:42:10,920 --> 01:42:12,840 Speaker 5: a lot of them are just watching red Zone. So 1869 01:42:13,000 --> 01:42:15,120 Speaker 5: like when I'm my house, whenever I have people over, 1870 01:42:15,200 --> 01:42:17,240 Speaker 5: it's two TVs. One TV is on Red Zone and 1871 01:42:17,280 --> 01:42:19,840 Speaker 5: one TV is on either the Browns or whatever that 1872 01:42:19,960 --> 01:42:23,599 Speaker 5: highlight game is. So the issue with that is these 1873 01:42:23,640 --> 01:42:25,840 Speaker 5: team by team packages won't get red Zone and a 1874 01:42:25,920 --> 01:42:27,960 Speaker 5: lot of people are wanting red Zone or the the 1875 01:42:28,160 --> 01:42:30,519 Speaker 5: option to put four games on my team. I know 1876 01:42:30,600 --> 01:42:31,760 Speaker 5: that's an option with Sunday Ticket. 1877 01:42:31,880 --> 01:42:34,200 Speaker 2: Well, in the red zone is very popular with fantasy players. 1878 01:42:33,960 --> 01:42:37,000 Speaker 5: Because exactly exactly it's it's very popular fantasy players because 1879 01:42:37,000 --> 01:42:39,920 Speaker 5: it shows you exactly when it happens, or quickly when 1880 01:42:39,960 --> 01:42:42,080 Speaker 5: it happens every team that's in the red zone, or 1881 01:42:42,160 --> 01:42:46,040 Speaker 5: just big plays that are happening throughout the throughout the day. 1882 01:42:46,560 --> 01:42:50,479 Speaker 5: But it's it's it's it's tough just for the team 1883 01:42:50,560 --> 01:42:53,240 Speaker 5: because you're missing out on a big market of people, 1884 01:42:53,439 --> 01:42:56,040 Speaker 5: especially with my age, I know the older the older 1885 01:42:56,200 --> 01:42:59,240 Speaker 5: generation kind of just sticks to their one team. Sticks 1886 01:42:59,280 --> 01:43:02,240 Speaker 5: to the three games they want to watch. I get that, 1887 01:43:02,479 --> 01:43:05,840 Speaker 5: But when it comes to the red zone aspect, I 1888 01:43:05,920 --> 01:43:09,040 Speaker 5: think that's where the value comes when you're paying three 1889 01:43:09,160 --> 01:43:11,600 Speaker 5: forty nine or however much you're going to pay for it. 1890 01:43:11,760 --> 01:43:14,000 Speaker 1: So that's the only issue I have with the team 1891 01:43:14,040 --> 01:43:14,879 Speaker 1: by team package. 1892 01:43:14,920 --> 01:43:16,519 Speaker 5: So I mean, if they have a way of making 1893 01:43:16,680 --> 01:43:20,000 Speaker 5: the full Sunday ticket package cheaper, I think that would 1894 01:43:20,040 --> 01:43:21,519 Speaker 5: be the way to do it. I mean, and hearing 1895 01:43:21,560 --> 01:43:23,840 Speaker 5: them say that three forty was way too much, I'm 1896 01:43:23,920 --> 01:43:25,360 Speaker 5: sure they can make it cheaper. 1897 01:43:25,439 --> 01:43:25,760 Speaker 1: I don't know. 1898 01:43:26,080 --> 01:43:27,400 Speaker 5: I mean, the only reason they're able to make it 1899 01:43:27,479 --> 01:43:29,400 Speaker 5: so expensive is because they technically have a monopoly on 1900 01:43:29,439 --> 01:43:31,080 Speaker 5: the product. There's no one else that could sell Sunday 1901 01:43:31,120 --> 01:43:32,840 Speaker 5: ticket There's no one else that you can really watch 1902 01:43:32,880 --> 01:43:35,960 Speaker 5: football through. So I mean it's it's it's all up 1903 01:43:36,000 --> 01:43:37,840 Speaker 5: to them, which kind of sucks. But thank god, this 1904 01:43:38,080 --> 01:43:40,519 Speaker 5: this this this court is I mean this Supreme Court? 1905 01:43:41,920 --> 01:43:43,679 Speaker 5: Is it Supreme Court? Was it in the Supreme Court? 1906 01:43:43,760 --> 01:43:45,000 Speaker 2: Oh no, no, just a local district. 1907 01:43:45,000 --> 01:43:47,000 Speaker 5: It's just a local district, Okay, Yeah, So just just 1908 01:43:47,080 --> 01:43:49,560 Speaker 5: because it's doing that, like, I'm happy with it, but 1909 01:43:49,680 --> 01:43:51,800 Speaker 5: I genuinely don't think it will change at all. 1910 01:43:51,840 --> 01:43:54,640 Speaker 1: I mean they they already said no to ESPN, and 1911 01:43:54,760 --> 01:43:56,160 Speaker 1: I don't I think they. 1912 01:43:56,080 --> 01:43:57,840 Speaker 2: Said no to that because they did the math and 1913 01:43:57,880 --> 01:43:59,920 Speaker 2: it would have been less revenue. They're getting three four 1914 01:44:00,000 --> 01:44:02,200 Speaker 2: forty nine as opposed to seventy, and I think the 1915 01:44:02,280 --> 01:44:04,400 Speaker 2: mix and match might have been more difficult to distribute. 1916 01:44:04,439 --> 01:44:06,720 Speaker 2: I don't know, but I think I'm in agreement, Jay, 1917 01:44:06,760 --> 01:44:09,479 Speaker 2: I don't think they'll bend quickly. Mark, you got the 1918 01:44:09,560 --> 01:44:10,200 Speaker 2: last word on this. 1919 01:44:10,960 --> 01:44:13,120 Speaker 10: I don't think the NFL is going to try and 1920 01:44:13,200 --> 01:44:15,920 Speaker 10: make any sort of deal where they don't have the 1921 01:44:16,120 --> 01:44:20,479 Speaker 10: advantage advantage well, the American audience, well said, based on 1922 01:44:20,560 --> 01:44:21,800 Speaker 10: what you guys are just saying. 1923 01:44:22,400 --> 01:44:23,840 Speaker 11: If in Europe they. 1924 01:44:23,840 --> 01:44:25,920 Speaker 10: Have a certain kind of deal and it works out 1925 01:44:25,920 --> 01:44:28,800 Speaker 10: a certain kind of way, they know what they can 1926 01:44:28,920 --> 01:44:31,560 Speaker 10: do to the American audience, and they're not going to 1927 01:44:32,439 --> 01:44:34,280 Speaker 10: not have the advantage. 1928 01:44:34,120 --> 01:44:36,920 Speaker 2: They got us. We're addicts, let's face it, let's be honest. 1929 01:44:37,439 --> 01:44:39,800 Speaker 10: So they are other other countries, can you know, sort 1930 01:44:39,840 --> 01:44:43,679 Speaker 10: of do without, but they know the American audience. Will 1931 01:44:43,880 --> 01:44:47,639 Speaker 10: you know, they will give both arms and both legs 1932 01:44:47,680 --> 01:44:48,559 Speaker 10: to get these games. 1933 01:44:50,920 --> 01:44:54,000 Speaker 2: Fair enough, Speaking of arms and legs, I don't know 1934 01:44:54,040 --> 01:44:57,120 Speaker 2: if Joey Chestnut holds a record for eat arms and legs. 1935 01:44:57,600 --> 01:44:59,680 Speaker 2: We're gonna have some fun with this.

So? 2247 01:59:51,680 --> 01:59:53,640 Speaker 1: What kind of brand new fool are you? 2248 01:59:54,640 --> 01:59:58,440 Speaker 2: Well, it's inevitable that one of us each week has 2249 01:59:58,520 --> 02:00:01,120 Speaker 2: a story that takes us to great state of Florida, 2250 02:00:01,240 --> 02:00:04,320 Speaker 2: and this week is no different. It's actually my term. 2251 02:00:05,280 --> 02:00:09,960 Speaker 2: We take you to Sarasota, Florida, where we introduce you 2252 02:00:10,080 --> 02:00:15,120 Speaker 2: to a gentleman named Timothy B who was accused of burglary. 2253 02:00:15,960 --> 02:00:17,800 Speaker 2: Now we all know it's important to get a good 2254 02:00:17,840 --> 02:00:19,760 Speaker 2: night's sleep.

So mister B entered 2259 02:00:36,880 --> 02:00:42,120 Speaker 2: the house and did his business sort of. I guess 2260 02:00:42,200 --> 02:00:45,520 Speaker 2: he must have been pooped out because he decided he 2261 02:00:45,600 --> 02:00:47,720 Speaker 2: would well, Hell, if you're going to be a cat burglar, 2262 02:00:47,720 --> 02:00:49,040 Speaker 2: you might as well take a cat nap. 2263 02:00:49,160 --> 02:00:51,000 Speaker 1: Right, how's that Mark?

Well, Timothy B apparently was quite polite, 2271 02:01:19,160 --> 02:01:21,480 Speaker 2: and he says, oh, I'm so sorry, and he started 2272 02:01:21,520 --> 02:01:24,760 Speaker 2: to pace the floor, and the lady says, I'm calling 2273 02:01:24,800 --> 02:01:28,320 Speaker 2: the police, and at that point, well Timothy BE made 2274 02:01:28,360 --> 02:01:30,160 Speaker 2: like Jesse Owens and got the hell out of here 2275 02:01:30,280 --> 02:01:33,600 Speaker 2: right Well, the officers arrived at the home about twenty 2276 02:01:33,640 --> 02:01:37,720 Speaker 2: minutes later, which point at at that juncture, the victim 2277 02:01:38,240 --> 02:01:41,960 Speaker 2: noticed that her wallet, her license or credit cards, some cash, 2278 02:01:42,440 --> 02:01:46,720 Speaker 2: and some personal checks were missing. Well, the police did 2279 02:01:46,760 --> 02:01:50,720 Speaker 2: their job. They do a great job. They found mister B. 2280 02:01:50,920 --> 02:01:53,800 Speaker 2: Mister Timothy B.

In what they call football, we call soccer. 2737 02:24:01,920 --> 02:24:03,800 Speaker 2: It's time for Christopher Fetts World of Soccer. 2738 02:24:04,320 --> 02:24:15,600 Speaker 13: Dang the greatest goals, the thrilling finishes, the international drum. 2739 02:24:20,959 --> 02:24:24,400 Speaker 1: It's all here in this report from the world of Soccer. 2740 02:24:25,000 --> 02:24:27,520 Speaker 14: Well, Bernie, we've somehow gone through an easy what was 2741 02:24:27,560 --> 02:24:30,080 Speaker 14: supposed to be an easy cruise in Copa at the 2742 02:24:30,120 --> 02:24:32,800 Speaker 14: start of the group stages. After that game against Bolivia, 2743 02:24:32,920 --> 02:24:37,400 Speaker 14: a two Niel drubbing that saw falaraen Balagan really stamp 2744 02:24:37,520 --> 02:24:41,920 Speaker 14: his name on the US men's team as a fantastic pickup. 2745 02:24:41,959 --> 02:24:44,320 Speaker 14: He only started playing for the country back in May 2746 02:24:44,720 --> 02:24:48,640 Speaker 14: to suddenly it's live or die against Uruguay, and once 2747 02:24:48,680 --> 02:24:52,080 Speaker 14: again the criticism is coming out for gregbor Haltz. Rightly, 2748 02:24:52,200 --> 02:24:54,760 Speaker 14: so it's coming out for Timothy Way, who picked up 2749 02:24:54,760 --> 02:24:57,520 Speaker 14: a red car that forced the US to play ten 2750 02:24:57,760 --> 02:25:02,160 Speaker 14: on eleven from the eighteen minute onward in this match 2751 02:25:02,200 --> 02:25:04,560 Speaker 14: against Panama, and it resulted in a two to one 2752 02:25:04,840 --> 02:25:07,880 Speaker 14: Panama of victory over the US in front of a 2753 02:25:07,959 --> 02:25:09,880 Speaker 14: home crowd in Atlanta. 2754 02:25:10,240 --> 02:25:11,640 Speaker 7: How the hell did we get here? 2755 02:25:12,000 --> 02:25:14,440 Speaker 14: And now the US is clinging on for dear life 2756 02:25:14,480 --> 02:25:17,200 Speaker 14: and has to beat a very strong Uruguay squad. 2757 02:25:17,640 --> 02:25:19,640 Speaker 7: How how how well? 2758 02:25:19,800 --> 02:25:23,080 Speaker 14: Unfortunately the US, this seems to always be what has 2759 02:25:23,160 --> 02:25:25,720 Speaker 14: happened to them as long as I've watched. You get 2760 02:25:25,800 --> 02:25:28,039 Speaker 14: into a tournament and you see them do something really 2761 02:25:28,160 --> 02:25:32,120 Speaker 14: cool against a team that, honestly they've been able to 2762 02:25:32,200 --> 02:25:35,640 Speaker 14: beat handle Bolivia ranked eighty fourth in the world according 2763 02:25:35,680 --> 02:25:37,640 Speaker 14: to FIFA. I think it was a team that the 2764 02:25:37,760 --> 02:25:40,120 Speaker 14: US should have always kind of walked over to. Nil 2765 02:25:40,120 --> 02:25:42,200 Speaker 14: didn't even really describe it. I think the US had 2766 02:25:42,240 --> 02:25:46,040 Speaker 14: a lot more scoring chances than that, Especially Ricardo Peppi 2767 02:25:46,200 --> 02:25:48,040 Speaker 14: just could not get a cross over to him to 2768 02:25:48,120 --> 02:25:50,520 Speaker 14: save his life. With where he was in front of 2769 02:25:50,600 --> 02:25:52,360 Speaker 14: the net all the time, I've never seen a man 2770 02:25:52,440 --> 02:25:55,640 Speaker 14: more hungry in my life. But honestly, the criticism has 2771 02:25:55,720 --> 02:25:58,400 Speaker 14: to fall on Timothy Way's head primarily. That is a 2772 02:25:58,520 --> 02:26:01,520 Speaker 14: clean red. This was a sloppy game, and it was 2773 02:26:01,560 --> 02:26:05,119 Speaker 14: a very brutal game. It's a very CONCACAF game. Two reds, 2774 02:26:05,280 --> 02:26:08,480 Speaker 14: five yellow cards all told. But for anyone complaining about 2775 02:26:08,480 --> 02:26:11,040 Speaker 14: the officiating, I'm sorry, that is a clean red. You 2776 02:26:11,120 --> 02:26:13,320 Speaker 14: are not allowed to hit rod Rick Miller in the 2777 02:26:13,440 --> 02:26:15,840 Speaker 14: head like that in the game of soccer. It's just 2778 02:26:15,879 --> 02:26:18,640 Speaker 14: simply not allowed, and you can't get away with that. 2779 02:26:18,840 --> 02:26:23,000 Speaker 14: I don't care what happens in CONCACAFF sometimes ways, unforced 2780 02:26:23,120 --> 02:26:25,200 Speaker 14: error really forced the US on the back foot for 2781 02:26:25,280 --> 02:26:27,920 Speaker 14: almost this entire game. And for a team that is 2782 02:26:27,959 --> 02:26:32,680 Speaker 14: predicated on tempo attacking, going down the field and striking, 2783 02:26:33,000 --> 02:26:35,520 Speaker 14: being forced to play on a defensive front with a 2784 02:26:35,640 --> 02:26:38,320 Speaker 14: man down is just not a game the US is 2785 02:26:38,400 --> 02:26:41,800 Speaker 14: able to play, and it showed. It showed when Panama 2786 02:26:42,280 --> 02:26:45,280 Speaker 14: slogged them as bad as they did and managed to 2787 02:26:45,360 --> 02:26:48,840 Speaker 14: get two goals on them a late goal here, stealing 2788 02:26:48,879 --> 02:26:51,720 Speaker 14: even a single point from the US, and honestly, some 2789 02:26:51,840 --> 02:26:53,720 Speaker 14: of this burnie does have to fall on the head 2790 02:26:53,760 --> 02:26:54,720 Speaker 14: of Greg Berhalter. 2791 02:26:54,959 --> 02:26:55,720 Speaker 7: This is kind of my. 2792 02:26:55,840 --> 02:26:58,560 Speaker 14: Worry coming through here in that I don't think any 2793 02:26:58,680 --> 02:27:01,240 Speaker 14: manager should ever have to look at a loss like 2794 02:27:01,360 --> 02:27:03,800 Speaker 14: this and try to rationalize it if it was any 2795 02:27:03,840 --> 02:27:06,840 Speaker 14: other country out there, and it was any other federation 2796 02:27:06,959 --> 02:27:08,840 Speaker 14: than the US Federation, which can be a little bit 2797 02:27:08,959 --> 02:27:12,520 Speaker 14: good old boy sometimes. Berhalter would not be able to 2798 02:27:12,600 --> 02:27:15,560 Speaker 14: survive this thing if the US fails to move on 2799 02:27:16,280 --> 02:27:18,800 Speaker 14: from the group stages, because quite honestly, it's supposed to 2800 02:27:18,840 --> 02:27:21,840 Speaker 14: be your tune up for the World Cup. Panama probably 2801 02:27:21,920 --> 02:27:24,280 Speaker 14: won't be in the World Cup. It is not a 2802 02:27:24,360 --> 02:27:27,400 Speaker 14: World Cup team. And here you are, you know, pulling 2803 02:27:27,440 --> 02:27:30,039 Speaker 14: a dumb one of your players, pulling a dumb red card. 2804 02:27:30,320 --> 02:27:33,520 Speaker 14: Your substitution still not able to staunch the bleeding that 2805 02:27:33,720 --> 02:27:36,240 Speaker 14: happened late in this game. Now, I do want to 2806 02:27:36,280 --> 02:27:39,920 Speaker 14: say again props to Falariballigan. Fantastic pickup for the US. 2807 02:27:40,160 --> 02:27:42,199 Speaker 14: Already five goals from the nation again. 2808 02:27:42,240 --> 02:27:45,400 Speaker 1: He joined in May. He had some ideas of what 2809 02:27:45,600 --> 02:27:46,760 Speaker 1: kind of what he wanted to do. 2810 02:27:47,040 --> 02:27:49,960 Speaker 14: He was looking between England, where he was raised Nigeria 2811 02:27:50,080 --> 02:27:52,240 Speaker 14: his parents, but he was born in the US and 2812 02:27:52,320 --> 02:27:54,600 Speaker 14: thus he's able to join the US squad and he's 2813 02:27:54,640 --> 02:27:56,760 Speaker 14: been the spark in both these games. He had the 2814 02:27:56,800 --> 02:28:00,440 Speaker 14: loan goal here against Panama and the U is going 2815 02:28:00,480 --> 02:28:03,040 Speaker 14: to have to look to him against Uruguay. Now I'm 2816 02:28:03,040 --> 02:28:04,440 Speaker 14: going to get back to the US and the second 2817 02:28:04,520 --> 02:28:07,440 Speaker 14: explain how they can advance in Copa. But first we 2818 02:28:07,520 --> 02:28:10,040 Speaker 14: do have to talk about Euros because man, what a 2819 02:28:10,160 --> 02:28:14,000 Speaker 14: European Championship. We have been having some fantastic scenes over 2820 02:28:14,080 --> 02:28:19,279 Speaker 14: there in Germany. Scotland unfortunately sent home early Hungary fans. 2821 02:28:19,520 --> 02:28:22,920 Speaker 14: Hungarian fans serenading them as they left saying no Scotland, 2822 02:28:22,959 --> 02:28:25,880 Speaker 14: no party. The Scottish fans really showed up with the 2823 02:28:25,959 --> 02:28:30,879 Speaker 14: fan culture here in Germany. Georgia, Georgia moving forward. I'm 2824 02:28:30,879 --> 02:28:33,160 Speaker 14: not talking about the SEC. I am talking about the 2825 02:28:33,360 --> 02:28:37,520 Speaker 14: Nation of Georgia with a win over Portugal to advance 2826 02:28:37,920 --> 02:28:41,680 Speaker 14: and they will take on Spain here on Sunday. A 2827 02:28:41,840 --> 02:28:45,600 Speaker 14: fantastic group glow up for them. And again we've talked 2828 02:28:45,600 --> 02:28:48,920 Speaker 14: about Cavarc Shelley a little bit before, as I like 2829 02:28:49,000 --> 02:28:51,320 Speaker 14: to know him as Kavara Dona when he was playing 2830 02:28:51,360 --> 02:28:54,000 Speaker 14: for Napoli. He has been the spark that has really 2831 02:28:54,040 --> 02:28:58,360 Speaker 14: helped Georgia move forward. England also playing on Sunday, man 2832 02:28:58,640 --> 02:29:03,320 Speaker 14: have they struggled if spirits are low in the United States. 2833 02:29:04,720 --> 02:29:08,480 Speaker 14: Two straight draws for the English squad, only two goals 2834 02:29:08,640 --> 02:29:11,760 Speaker 14: in three matches, and everyone is really. 2835 02:29:11,720 --> 02:29:12,600 Speaker 2: Not feeling this. 2836 02:29:12,720 --> 02:29:15,120 Speaker 14: For England, they move forward, they'll be playing Slovakia, but 2837 02:29:15,920 --> 02:29:18,200 Speaker 14: I don't know how many people are now expecting them 2838 02:29:18,520 --> 02:29:20,760 Speaker 14: to really come out of this tournament in one piece. 2839 02:29:21,280 --> 02:29:23,600 Speaker 14: A lot of the big nations here have really struggled, 2840 02:29:23,680 --> 02:29:27,280 Speaker 14: France and Belgium both taking on each other. Belgium, of course, 2841 02:29:27,360 --> 02:29:30,200 Speaker 14: losing in the first game against Slovakia has kind of 2842 02:29:30,240 --> 02:29:31,080 Speaker 14: a wake up call that. 2843 02:29:31,200 --> 02:29:34,400 Speaker 1: Maybe their golden generation is about over. 2844 02:29:34,959 --> 02:29:38,920 Speaker 14: And for France, killing Nimbape, you know, just looking to 2845 02:29:39,040 --> 02:29:42,520 Speaker 14: him to try to get things going for the country. Now, 2846 02:29:42,640 --> 02:29:45,520 Speaker 14: Bernie as promised, let's get back to the US. Here 2847 02:29:45,640 --> 02:29:49,200 Speaker 14: is the scenarios ahead of you. The US in playing 2848 02:29:49,320 --> 02:29:53,240 Speaker 14: Uruguay while Panama plays Bolivia, a team that has just 2849 02:29:53,400 --> 02:29:58,080 Speaker 14: been getting thrashed in Group C NonStop. They have to 2850 02:29:58,440 --> 02:30:01,920 Speaker 14: score more points. So if Panama draws, the US has 2851 02:30:02,000 --> 02:30:04,879 Speaker 14: to win. If Panama loses. They just the US has 2852 02:30:05,000 --> 02:30:08,760 Speaker 14: to not lose, feeling that if Panama gets more points, 2853 02:30:09,040 --> 02:30:11,680 Speaker 14: the US is out. If they are tied on points, 2854 02:30:11,720 --> 02:30:14,720 Speaker 14: if say both Panama and the US win, then the 2855 02:30:14,879 --> 02:30:17,400 Speaker 14: US has to make sure they are still ahead on 2856 02:30:17,600 --> 02:30:20,040 Speaker 14: goal differential. Right now it is plus one for the 2857 02:30:20,160 --> 02:30:23,840 Speaker 14: US minus one for Panamas. That's a two goal differential, 2858 02:30:23,920 --> 02:30:28,039 Speaker 14: so Panama would have to beat by two goals whatever 2859 02:30:28,120 --> 02:30:30,000 Speaker 14: the US put up. It's a tough ask and this 2860 02:30:30,200 --> 02:30:31,600 Speaker 14: is going to be the game that sees of the 2861 02:30:31,720 --> 02:30:34,640 Speaker 14: US is ready for the big times. Uruguay is very 2862 02:30:34,680 --> 02:30:38,119 Speaker 14: strong country. The one silver lining is Uruguay's already through 2863 02:30:38,160 --> 02:30:40,520 Speaker 14: Group CEE. It might mean that they decide some of 2864 02:30:40,600 --> 02:30:43,400 Speaker 14: their starters they're starting eleven, they want to take them 2865 02:30:43,400 --> 02:30:45,199 Speaker 14: off early, play some substitutes. 2866 02:30:45,680 --> 02:30:46,240 Speaker 1: Who knows. 2867 02:30:46,440 --> 02:30:50,039 Speaker 14: But I think that the US should not be expecting 2868 02:30:50,080 --> 02:30:53,640 Speaker 14: an easy walk here, especially since Panama. I expect to 2869 02:30:53,760 --> 02:30:56,400 Speaker 14: probably try to beat up on Bolivia to try to 2870 02:30:56,480 --> 02:31:00,080 Speaker 14: get over that goal differential. Bernie, I ask you, do 2871 02:31:00,160 --> 02:31:02,800 Speaker 14: you think the US has what it takes ahead of them, 2872 02:31:02,879 --> 02:31:05,800 Speaker 14: because I think they do. But it's not going to 2873 02:31:05,879 --> 02:31:08,000 Speaker 14: be easy and a result the other way is not 2874 02:31:08,160 --> 02:31:10,480 Speaker 14: going to shock me at this point. But the US 2875 02:31:10,680 --> 02:31:12,400 Speaker 14: has to have it if they want to show that 2876 02:31:12,440 --> 02:31:14,240 Speaker 14: they are ready for the tune up for the World Cup. 2877 02:31:14,280 --> 02:31:17,240 Speaker 14: They have to get to the knockout stage here in 2878 02:31:17,440 --> 02:31:20,800 Speaker 14: Copa America. Cross your fingers, hold on for dear life. 2879 02:31:20,959 --> 02:31:23,240 Speaker 14: We'll see you next time on the World of Soccer. 2880 02:31:24,440 --> 02:31:27,360 Speaker 2: You know, Chris Hope is not a strategy and I 2881 02:31:27,440 --> 02:31:30,760 Speaker 2: could stay on paper. The US team might have what 2882 02:31:30,879 --> 02:31:34,360 Speaker 2: it takes, but don't tell me. Show me. They've been 2883 02:31:34,400 --> 02:31:38,600 Speaker 2: threatening for so long that it's become like the Boy 2884 02:31:38,720 --> 02:31:42,520 Speaker 2: who Cried Wolf. If you get by drift coming up. 2885 02:31:42,600 --> 02:31:45,800 Speaker 2: We wrap up the show, and you know we've talked 2886 02:31:45,840 --> 02:31:49,480 Speaker 2: quite a bit of Joey Chestnut tonight.

He might be adding new dimensions to 2888 02:31:52,320 --> 02:31:56,240 Speaker 2: the term Netflix and Chill can't believe I just said that. 2889 02:31:57,080 --> 02:31:59,640 Speaker 1: I'll button it up in a minute. 2890 02:31:59,680 --> 02:32:02,640 Speaker 2: Here.

I won't get into the legalities, and 2922 02:33:41,600 --> 02:33:44,959 Speaker 2: then back and forth arguments, and you will see Joey 2923 02:33:45,080 --> 02:33:48,800 Speaker 2: Chestnut on July fourth, apparently in El Paso, Texas. He's 2924 02:33:48,840 --> 02:33:54,920 Speaker 2: accepted a challenge to take on four I think US 2925 02:33:55,040 --> 02:33:57,600 Speaker 2: Army soldiers, and he'll crush all of them. Okay, maybe 2926 02:33:57,640 --> 02:33:59,560 Speaker 2: they'll all eat ten hot dogs each in ten minutes 2927 02:33:59,600 --> 02:34:02,040 Speaker 2: and Joy Chestnut Elite sixty five and that'll be the 2928 02:34:02,120 --> 02:34:03,920 Speaker 2: end of that. But it'll be fun to watch if 2929 02:34:04,240 --> 02:34:05,720 Speaker 2: you can watch it somewhere. I have no idea where 2930 02:34:05,720 --> 02:34:07,240 Speaker 2: you'd be able to watch it, but I'll tell you 2931 02:34:07,280 --> 02:34:17,400 Speaker 2: what you can watch because seizing on the Joy Chestnut absence, 2932 02:34:17,480 --> 02:34:21,000 Speaker 2: as it were at the Great Spectacle where thirty thousand 2933 02:34:21,040 --> 02:34:23,200 Speaker 2: people attend locally, and by the way, you notice you 2934 02:34:23,240 --> 02:34:27,879 Speaker 2: haven't seen Kobayashi there and in probably a decade. Well, 2935 02:34:27,959 --> 02:34:31,600 Speaker 2: Netflix on Labor Day, September second. Yeah, Netflix, they're into 2936 02:34:31,640 --> 02:34:36,000 Speaker 2: everything else. So why not get into the competitive eating business? 2937 02:34:36,560 --> 02:34:37,120 Speaker 1: What the hell? 2938 02:34:38,720 --> 02:34:41,640 Speaker 2: Netflix clearly the streaming giant. They're going to host a 2939 02:34:41,760 --> 02:34:45,520 Speaker 2: live streaming event on Labor Day, September second, featuring the 2940 02:34:45,640 --> 02:34:48,760 Speaker 2: two legends of the Nathan's Hot Dog eating contest, Joy 2941 02:34:48,920 --> 02:34:52,120 Speaker 2: Chestnut and Takiro Kobeyashi. I bet you to know his 2942 02:34:52,200 --> 02:34:55,360 Speaker 2: first name was Takiro. It's going to be called Chestnut 2943 02:34:55,920 --> 02:35:01,920 Speaker 2: Versus Kobyashi, the Unfinished Beef. See what they did there. Now, 2944 02:35:02,240 --> 02:35:03,840 Speaker 2: we don't know where the location is going to be at. 2945 02:35:03,920 --> 02:35:07,320 Speaker 2: We still don't know the specific timing. And by the way, 2946 02:35:07,760 --> 02:35:09,880 Speaker 2: Netflix had to throw a little zinger there because this 2947 02:35:09,959 --> 02:35:13,640 Speaker 2: whole Kobayashi or checked that the whole apparently, the whole 2948 02:35:14,120 --> 02:35:18,520 Speaker 2: Joey Chestnut issue revolved around the fact that he had 2949 02:35:18,959 --> 02:35:22,040 Speaker 2: I think sign an endorsement deal with Impossible Foods and 2950 02:35:22,080 --> 02:35:25,640 Speaker 2: one of the other plant based and so Nathan's hot 2951 02:35:25,680 --> 02:35:28,200 Speaker 2: dogs are I think all beef, and these hot dogs 2952 02:35:28,280 --> 02:35:32,040 Speaker 2: that they'll be using for the Chestnut Versus Kobayashi on 2953 02:35:32,120 --> 02:35:36,800 Speaker 2: September second will be all beef as well. Now, as 2954 02:35:36,879 --> 02:35:40,480 Speaker 2: you know, those two guys battle each other, brought the 2955 02:35:40,520 --> 02:35:43,360 Speaker 2: best out of each other for years in the annual 2956 02:35:43,480 --> 02:35:47,880 Speaker 2: Nathan's Contest, but time flies. They haven't competed head to 2957 02:35:48,000 --> 02:35:52,640 Speaker 2: head in two thousand and nine and they tied and 2958 02:35:52,800 --> 02:35:55,440 Speaker 2: Chestnut had to beat Kobayashi in a five hot dogs 2959 02:35:55,480 --> 02:35:59,680 Speaker 2: sudden death eat off. True story, these two guys got 2960 02:36:00,280 --> 02:36:05,920 Speaker 2: the resume. Joey Chestnut has won the Nathan's Contest sixteen times, 2961 02:36:06,400 --> 02:36:09,480 Speaker 2: including the last eight years, but again not allowed to 2962 02:36:09,520 --> 02:36:13,240 Speaker 2: participate this year because apparently he inked a sponsorship agreement 2963 02:36:13,280 --> 02:36:17,200 Speaker 2: with Impossible Foods, and they recently released a plant based 2964 02:36:17,240 --> 02:36:19,960 Speaker 2: hot talk Apparently that just did not sit well with 2965 02:36:20,000 --> 02:36:24,360 Speaker 2: the peeps over there at Nathan's. So I think the 2966 02:36:24,440 --> 02:36:26,680 Speaker 2: absence is going to have an impact on the ratings. 2967 02:36:27,200 --> 02:36:29,560 Speaker 2: And Chestnut still holds the record for most hot talks 2968 02:36:29,600 --> 02:36:33,960 Speaker 2: consumed in ten minutes with seventy six. Right, but this 2969 02:36:34,120 --> 02:36:39,480 Speaker 2: is serious business, he even. Joey Chestnut even issued a 2970 02:36:39,680 --> 02:36:43,320 Speaker 2: statement regarding their upcoming September second face off. He said, 2971 02:36:43,360 --> 02:36:45,760 Speaker 2: cod through all my years of competitive eating, Kobayashi stands 2972 02:36:45,800 --> 02:36:48,960 Speaker 2: out as my fiercest rival. Competing against him pushed me 2973 02:36:49,040 --> 02:36:51,080 Speaker 2: to be so much better. I know that fans have 2974 02:36:51,160 --> 02:36:53,880 Speaker 2: waited a long time for another chapter of our rivalry. 2975 02:36:54,280 --> 02:36:56,640 Speaker 2: I can't wait for our massive showdown on Netflix. It's 2976 02:36:56,680 --> 02:36:58,920 Speaker 2: time to give the people what they want. I don't 2977 02:36:58,959 --> 02:37:01,480 Speaker 2: know that I was asking for this, but I'm gonna watch. 2978 02:37:02,200 --> 02:37:04,760 Speaker 2: If you saw the ESPN, He's either he sixty or 2979 02:37:04,800 --> 02:37:07,199 Speaker 2: thirty for thirty came out about eight years ago. It's amazing, 2980 02:37:07,520 --> 02:37:11,720 Speaker 2: really really tremendous journalistic work. Kobayashi also a six time 2981 02:37:11,840 --> 02:37:14,720 Speaker 2: Nathan's winner. He was really the first competitive eater really 2982 02:37:14,760 --> 02:37:18,240 Speaker 2: become an international celebrity, and he started out in two 2983 02:37:18,240 --> 02:37:20,760 Speaker 2: thousand and one. He had fifty hot dogs in twelve minutes, 2984 02:37:20,800 --> 02:37:23,920 Speaker 2: which is, you know, was unheard of them. Now they're 2985 02:37:24,000 --> 02:37:26,920 Speaker 2: up to seventy six. He had a dispute with Major 2986 02:37:27,000 --> 02:37:29,280 Speaker 2: League Eating as well that prevented him from returning to 2987 02:37:29,320 --> 02:37:32,240 Speaker 2: the competition and again. He was also part of another 2988 02:37:32,520 --> 02:37:35,920 Speaker 2: Netflix documentary called Hack Your Health The Secrets of Your Gut. 2989 02:37:36,840 --> 02:37:40,160 Speaker 2: Truth of the matter is, Kobayashi said he doesn't want 2990 02:37:40,160 --> 02:37:42,959 Speaker 2: to retire till he takes down Chestnut one last time. 2991 02:37:43,080 --> 02:37:46,840 Speaker 2: So here's your chance.
