70
00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:50,280
Speaker 3: He's a Knicks fan, by the way, which is we

71
00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:53,640
Speaker 3: get we understand, but he says.

72
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:57,360
Speaker 2: Where wears gear for the game. That's not being right. Yes,

73
00:03:57,480 --> 00:03:59,840
Speaker 2: you got a whole thing about this, Like I showed

74
00:03:59,920 --> 00:04:02,920
Speaker 2: up to a Clipper Lakers game in an undershirt.

75
00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:05,200
Speaker 1: What are you doing anyway? Go ahead?

76
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:06,000
Speaker 4: And and and then.

77
00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:10,120
Speaker 3: He says, I like cheering for teams nobody cheers for.

78
00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:15,560
Speaker 3: And I said what He's like, yeah, the tickets are cheap,

79
00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:19,479
Speaker 3: and you know, he said, like the A's And I'm like,

80
00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:23,520
Speaker 3: oh god, this is this is worse. It's getting worse. Man.

81
00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:28,640
Speaker 3: It went from Clippers to to the Knicks, now to

82
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:29,240
Speaker 3: the A's.

83
00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:32,920
Speaker 1: People who are chanting sell the team in the stands.

84
00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:36,719
Speaker 2: I mean, look, this is what happens when sports fandom

85
00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:37,919
Speaker 2: loses its way.

86
00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:41,039
Speaker 1: It's not a criticism, now, truly, it's not.

87
00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:44,159
Speaker 2: It's not a criticism, right, Like, if you got a

88
00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:48,720
Speaker 2: family member who is struggling with addiction, we don't criticize.

89
00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:51,760
Speaker 2: You gather them at a couch and surround them with

90
00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:53,480
Speaker 2: eight people who care about them.

91
00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:56,520
Speaker 1: And love them, help, right, right, and you and and

92
00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:57,440
Speaker 1: you help them.

93
00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:01,039
Speaker 2: So when sports fandom loses its and you start just

94
00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:04,880
Speaker 2: plucking things out of thin air, I'll root for these guys.

95
00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:06,520
Speaker 1: This week, because you know.

96
00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:10,839
Speaker 2: They seem sad and like it's laundry day. What's the

97
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:13,520
Speaker 2: shirt even doing in there? Like there are so many

98
00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:18,400
Speaker 2: questions and it's okay you just as with all problems,

99
00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:22,200
Speaker 2: the first step is admitting it. So sports fandom has

100
00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:23,320
Speaker 2: lost its way.

101
00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:25,520
Speaker 1: You got to done. See if you can figure it out.

102
00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:27,000
Speaker 3: I'm just sad. It's sad.

103
00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:29,000
Speaker 1: Well you know it is. It's sad.

104
00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:31,919
Speaker 5: Acka Now, I just like to take to take a

105
00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:35,679
Speaker 5: second to admit nothing. I think I'm great because I say,

106
00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:39,559
Speaker 5: first off, I'm not one of the secondary team fan guys.

107
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:42,360
Speaker 5: I'm a straight up Knicks fan, no Clippers at all.

108
00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:45,000
Speaker 5: And the reason I said that I love the teams

109
00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:48,080
Speaker 5: that nobody roots for in the city is that we

110
00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:51,120
Speaker 5: got tickets to a Clippers playoff game.

111
00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:54,839
Speaker 4: Lakers Regulus, Yeah, they give them away. Of course, they

112
00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:57,360
Speaker 4: got a free shirt. That's like plus investments.

113
00:05:57,800 --> 00:05:59,640
Speaker 3: There's no entertainment value there.

114
00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:00,679
Speaker 4: I agree.

115
00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:03,760
Speaker 2: And if you if you're a real fan of a

116
00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:06,720
Speaker 2: team and putting somebody else's logo on your chest, no

117
00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:13,039
Speaker 2: matter if it's free or not, and case by the way.

118
00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:14,839
Speaker 4: Sit down you're then talking.

119
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:17,280
Speaker 3: We don't sit there and take the headphones away from

120
00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:17,920
Speaker 3: sitting down.

121
00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:19,760
Speaker 4: It's not your show.

122
00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:25,600
Speaker 2: Yes, When when you get surrounded by eight family members

123
00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:28,280
Speaker 2: and they tell you have a problem, what's the first

124
00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:29,599
Speaker 2: thing that all of them.

125
00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:31,760
Speaker 4: Say, I don't have a problem.

126
00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:34,600
Speaker 2: So I know, Casey, you don't think you have a problem,

127
00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:38,440
Speaker 2: but but you do. And if it takes us three

128
00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:41,680
Speaker 2: hours to get there or three months, uh, we got

129
00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:44,719
Speaker 2: nothing but said nothing but time.

130
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:46,600

Speaker 2: conversations with loved ones, I got a question for you.

139
00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:12,280
Speaker 1: You ever, and you can go all the way back.

140
00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:15,040
Speaker 2: I don't want to infringe on the beautiful family life

141
00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:16,000
Speaker 2: that you have right now.

142
00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:17,280
Speaker 3: I don't want to be inappropriate.

143
00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:19,360
Speaker 2: At any point in your life, did you ever break

144
00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:21,600
Speaker 2: up with someone that at the time you did not

145
00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:22,880
Speaker 2: want to break up with them?

146
00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:26,280
Speaker 3: Oh? Yeah, absolutely?

147
00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:28,040
Speaker 4: And what was the reason?

148
00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:36,720
Speaker 3: It just wasn't gonna work like the distance was you know,

149
00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:39,240
Speaker 3: it would have just been more effort than I really

150
00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:41,840
Speaker 3: wanted to put into it. And I was young, and

151
00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:45,840
Speaker 3: you know it was time. But I enjoyed the person.

152
00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:52,280
Speaker 2: Right, So when I asked that question, I bet almost

153
00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:55,240
Speaker 2: all of us, right, you got someone We use phrases

154
00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:59,560
Speaker 2: like the one that got away, or you know, timing

155
00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:03,520
Speaker 2: is every thing, and just right, the timing wasn't right,

156
00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:07,440
Speaker 2: and uh sure, you know I love you, but I

157
00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:11,280
Speaker 2: gotta let you go. Like you just said, it wasn't

158
00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:13,920
Speaker 2: gonna work at the distance.

159
00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:17,560
Speaker 1: Or uh, you know, our boy, our our.

160
00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:19,880
Speaker 2: Work life balance is out of whack, or it just

161
00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:24,840
Speaker 2: whatever it is, right, I mean, isn't Isn't that what

162
00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:27,600
Speaker 2: the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim are about to do?

163
00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:30,080
Speaker 1: Isn't that what they're about to do?

164
00:08:31,280 --> 00:08:31,640
Speaker 4: Yeah?

165
00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:34,600
Speaker 1: Or or should they force it?

166
00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:41,400
Speaker 3: They're neither now no, right, Yeah, even if they tried

167
00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:43,439
Speaker 3: to force it, it's not gonna work.

168
00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:46,319
Speaker 2: Well, they could force it for another two and a

169
00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:48,160
Speaker 2: half months, they can do that.

170
00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:49,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, I've got all the power in the world to

171
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:50,280
Speaker 1: do that.

172
00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:54,800
Speaker 3: But that's like a two and a half month like that.

173
00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:58,760
Speaker 3: That's that's the bad part of the relations, right, no,

174
00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:00,079
Speaker 3: you'd be You would.

175
00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:04,000
Speaker 2: Be doing it to show the rest of the world

176
00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:09,440
Speaker 2: an inaccurate picture, which, by the way, families do all

177
00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:13,480
Speaker 2: the time. Do you know anybody in the world who's

178
00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:17,200
Speaker 2: like well that they care more about how things look

179
00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:21,840
Speaker 2: to the outside world as opposed to how they actually

180
00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:28,120
Speaker 2: are behind closed doors. So the Angels can pitch a narrative,

181
00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:33,000
Speaker 2: they can throw a message to their fans. We tried.

182
00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:39,160
Speaker 2: We are a real organization. We believe we can win.

183
00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:43,439
Speaker 2: We are in a major market. We even forced the

184
00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:46,000
Speaker 2: word Los Angeles on our chest. When we're not there,

185
00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:51,840
Speaker 2: we can tell all of you we are who you

186
00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:56,000
Speaker 2: want us to be, even though we all know behind

187
00:09:56,080 --> 00:10:00,360
Speaker 2: closed doors we're not. They can do that, or they

188
00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:04,680
Speaker 2: could actually be genuine. They could be real. They could

189
00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:08,640
Speaker 2: keep it real from and they could trade this man

190
00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:14,080
Speaker 2: because it seems obvious to the rest of us. Maybe

191
00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:16,720
Speaker 2: we're wrong, but seems obvious to the rest of us.

192
00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:18,720
Speaker 2: They ain't got no chance in hell of keeping him.

193
00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:24,960
Speaker 3: No, I don't believe they do. It just sounds like

194
00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:29,200
Speaker 3: they're ready to Well, he's ready to go. I mean,

195
00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:32,480
Speaker 3: they would love to keep him, but he's ready to go.

196
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:36,000
Speaker 3: And so now at this point, you want to get

197
00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:39,000
Speaker 3: all that you can as much as you possibly can

198
00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:43,679
Speaker 3: for generational talent, and you build your team around that.

199
00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:48,280
Speaker 3: Like you said, you always are saying that you know

200
00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:55,640
Speaker 3: you can't win World Series with one person. Oh and oh.

201
00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:57,319
Speaker 2: No, I mean it's been he's been there for six

202
00:10:57,400 --> 00:10:59,240
Speaker 2: years that he hasn't played in the playoff cam Ye.

203
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:02,840
Speaker 3: Right, So at this point, when you're in a relationship

204
00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:06,920
Speaker 3: for six years and you're not progressing in that relationship,

205
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:12,640
Speaker 3: that's that we you know, got engaged after year one

206
00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:17,360
Speaker 3: and now we're on year six and we're just waiting

207
00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:21,800
Speaker 3: for the right time to get married. Yeah, it's probably

208
00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:25,559
Speaker 3: time to to look at some other options.

209
00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:28,800
Speaker 2: You said something there though, you said he seems like

210
00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:31,959
Speaker 2: he's ready to go. I don't know what he seems

211
00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:34,959
Speaker 2: like because we don't really get to hear from him.

212
00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:38,559
Speaker 2: By the way, I have it on pretty good authority,

213
00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:45,240
Speaker 2: this man speaks just fine English. But isn't it isn't

214
00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:48,240
Speaker 2: it convenient? Sammy Sosa did this as well when he

215
00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:52,160
Speaker 2: got all up in the controversy. When they're asking the questions,

216
00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:54,560
Speaker 2: you don't want to answer that all of a sudden, Sorry,

217
00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:57,360
Speaker 2: I got no idea what you're asking me right now,

218
00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:02,160
Speaker 2: but how do you feel like he quote unquote seems

219
00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:04,360
Speaker 2: like he's ready to go. I have no idea what

220
00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:09,640
Speaker 2: the man wants. It's I know, we do know what

221
00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:12,920
Speaker 2: he wants. He wants to win. We know that that much.

222
00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:13,400
Speaker 4: Sure.

223
00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:19,080
Speaker 3: Sure, and it's not currently happening where they are. They've tried.

224
00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:24,440
Speaker 3: It's been six years and they can't get themselves, not

225
00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:27,880
Speaker 3: even over the hump to the hump. Okay, like it's

226
00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:30,360
Speaker 3: not like they're in the playoffs and they're losing you know,

227
00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:35,360
Speaker 3: early and oh just almost and almost, and it's not happening.

228
00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:38,880
Speaker 3: So do you spend another twelve years trying to figure

229
00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:41,480
Speaker 3: out a hold on to the hope that this is

230
00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:44,319
Speaker 3: going to happen, or do you go somewhere with the

231
00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:52,720
Speaker 3: history of playoffs and winning and you add that piece. Uh,

232
00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:56,079
Speaker 3: it just happens to be forty minutes away from where

233
00:12:56,120 --> 00:13:00,559
Speaker 3: you live. Now. I'm just saying, you know.

234
00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:02,760
Speaker 4: You're so presumptuous.

235
00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:07,920
Speaker 3: You know what are or the way I've got one

236
00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:10,320
Speaker 3: for you are you can go up to I five

237
00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:14,720
Speaker 3: and to the ninety nine, over to the eighty or

238
00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:17,560
Speaker 3: whatever and find yourself in the in the Bay Area.

239
00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:21,199
Speaker 2: But you could go so far up the eye five

240
00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:26,160
Speaker 2: that you remove the the from it. If you've lived

241
00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:29,240
Speaker 2: in either city, you know exactly what that means. But anyway,

242
00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:31,600
Speaker 2: do you know how iconic you have to be for

243
00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:34,719
Speaker 2: two people to have an entire segment about you on

244
00:13:34,760 --> 00:13:36,680
Speaker 2: the radio and not even mention your name. Do you

245
00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:39,600
Speaker 2: realize we haven't even said his name yet, everyoneman said

246
00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:41,040
Speaker 2: his name yet.

247
00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:43,439
Speaker 3: That's how big.

248
00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:43,960
Speaker 4: This man is.

249
00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:48,079
Speaker 2: That's how big of a deal. This is much more

250
00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:50,080
Speaker 2: on that. It sounds to me like you're ready to

251
00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:52,600
Speaker 2: say the Angels should trade him. But the next question

252
00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:56,640
Speaker 2: is should anybody acquire him? I have a very specific

253
00:13:56,720 --> 00:14:01,720
Speaker 2: question to ask you. I wonder if may you've even

254
00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:03,720
Speaker 2: Did you ever change teams midyear?

255
00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:04,840
Speaker 1: Were you ever traded?

256
00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:05,720
Speaker 4: No?

257
00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:06,920
Speaker 3: No, no, I did. Okay.

258
00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:13,680
Speaker 2: There's something everybody says about the quote unquote acquiring team

259
00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:17,120
Speaker 2: here in July that I just don't know if I buy,

285
00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:37,080
Speaker 2: on the wall in the Damian Lillard saga.

286
00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:39,480
Speaker 1: So all of that is still ahead, but.

287
00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:42,520
Speaker 3: Before we start. Can I and I ask you a question?

288
00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:46,160
Speaker 3: You ask me. I'm in a debate right now, okay

289
00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:50,200
Speaker 3: with my beautiful No no, no, no, with my beautiful wife

290
00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:53,400
Speaker 3: and my nine year old. So, my nine year old

291
00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:56,960
Speaker 3: is a basketball junk. He loves Kobe. He goes asleep

292
00:15:57,000 --> 00:16:01,200
Speaker 3: to Kobe highlights, he wakes up to Kobe. It's crazy,

293
00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:03,200
Speaker 3: but I love it because if you want to be

294
00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:05,120
Speaker 3: a basketball player, that's a good player to watch.

295
00:16:05,960 --> 00:16:06,200
Speaker 4: Yep.

296
00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:07,960
Speaker 3: So I'm on my way to work and I get

297
00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:09,640
Speaker 3: a call from my wife. Hey, we're going to send

298
00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:12,680
Speaker 3: you a list of our teams and you gotta tell

299
00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:17,800
Speaker 3: us who wins. So they send me like ten twelve players.

300
00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:19,320
Speaker 3: I'm like, no, you got to give me a start

301
00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:21,840
Speaker 3: in five. Well, you can't do hypotheticals. Who has the

302
00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:25,640
Speaker 3: best team with twelve players? That's it's unrealistic that much,

303
00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:29,200
Speaker 3: it's too much. You gotta have five on five, that's it, right, right,

304
00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:33,120
Speaker 3: So doing rotation, no, right, We got substitution patterns. And

305
00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:36,120
Speaker 3: you know there's no injury in hypotheticial.

306
00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:39,040

310
00:16:56,520 --> 00:17:00,800

Speaker 1: what he doesn't want to hear. All the time.

323
00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:46,880
Speaker 3: They take my word as gospel in the house when

324
00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:48,920
Speaker 3: it comes to sport, especially basketball.

325
00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:53,119
Speaker 2: Damn, I've only had one ice cream bar. I should

326
00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:55,640
Speaker 2: be able to have two more before I go to bed.

327
00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:57,119
Speaker 3: I'm ow sudden.

328
00:17:57,640 --> 00:18:00,399
Speaker 1: Look, who would you think it? In this house?

329
00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:01,920
Speaker 4: We're vegan.

330
00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:03,639
Speaker 3: We have this vegan ice cream. It's all kinds of

331
00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:07,040
Speaker 3: vegan stuff out there. I'm sure. I currently have in

332
00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:10,240
Speaker 3: front of me some vegan donut holes, which is crazy

333
00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:12,320
Speaker 3: to me, but they're they're pretty tasty.

334
00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:15,600
Speaker 2: Donuts actually are one of the few things that out

335
00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:17,720
Speaker 2: and about. The vegan version of them is not that

336
00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:18,239
Speaker 2: pretty good.

337
00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:19,359
Speaker 4: You get pretty good foods.

338
00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:21,199
Speaker 2: Yet go to Whole Foods and get one of their

339
00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:23,720
Speaker 2: vegan maple donuts. It's pretty You do need to save,

340
00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:26,000
Speaker 2: you need to save money for about three months, but

341
00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:28,880
Speaker 2: when you get there, you get it right, you get

342
00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:30,879
Speaker 2: the vegan it's actually it tastes like a donut.

343
00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:32,120
Speaker 1: It's it's very very good.

344
00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:36,480
Speaker 3: I'll give it that sidetrack the conversation, not wanting to

345
00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:40,880
Speaker 3: answer what's starting five you will take trying to figure

346
00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:45,919
Speaker 3: out Kobe, step Shack, Piff and KD a versus Jordan Lebron, Magic,

347
00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:46,879
Speaker 3: Giannis and Kareem.

348
00:18:47,720 --> 00:18:52,760
Speaker 2: I give you my snap reaction, okay, but then I

349
00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:56,280
Speaker 2: got to think about it. A snap reactions to go

350
00:18:56,480 --> 00:18:57,720
Speaker 2: with your wife.

351
00:18:57,800 --> 00:18:59,960
Speaker 3: With Jordan Lebron, Magic, Yan.

352
00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:03,720
Speaker 2: Jordan Lebron, Magic, Giannis and Kareem. That's my like my gist.

353
00:19:03,800 --> 00:19:06,760
Speaker 2: I didn't even think about it, like you sort of

354
00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:09,439
Speaker 2: grabbed m J and Lebron off the top and it

355
00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:12,520
Speaker 2: feels like she got the first two overall picks in

356
00:19:12,600 --> 00:19:15,920
Speaker 2: the all time draft, and so it's kind of hard

357
00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:18,159
Speaker 2: to be like, you know, your son was able to

358
00:19:18,280 --> 00:19:21,919
Speaker 2: rally back, you know, with with the likes of Scottie Pippen,

359
00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:26,880
Speaker 2: who I don't necessarily believe belongs in this conversation. Ask

360
00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:30,920
Speaker 2: you this, But okay, go ahead, what's your other?

361
00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:40,000
Speaker 3: What's yours? Jordan ever won without Pippin No, So now

362
00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:45,280
Speaker 3: when you look at it, you would have to say, Jordan, Well,

363
00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:50,439
Speaker 3: Lebron and Magic cancel each other out. They're basically the same.

364
00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:53,679
Speaker 2: They're on the same I know that I don't buy

365
00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:57,400
Speaker 2: that Lebron and Magic and that that that's that's blasphemous

366
00:19:57,400 --> 00:19:58,440
Speaker 2: to Lebron to say that.

367
00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:01,119
Speaker 1: I know what you mean, thank you. Lebron is a

368
00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:01,879
Speaker 1: better player.

369
00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:06,120
Speaker 3: Yes, he's a better scorer, and he does more things. Yes,

370
00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:10,760
Speaker 3: we get it. So I'm I was really scratching my head,

371
00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:13,040
Speaker 3: like I love all ten of these players.

372
00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:15,000
Speaker 4: Uh.

373
00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:18,880
Speaker 3: My wife was like, there's no contest. Of course, is Jordan, Lebron, Magic,

374
00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:19,840
Speaker 3: Giannis and Kareem.

375
00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:21,480
Speaker 1: No, it's a contest.

376
00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:24,679
Speaker 3: And I was like, no, baby, it's not that simple.

377
00:20:24,960 --> 00:20:27,200
Speaker 3: I said, it's not this is this is a real game.

378
00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:30,520
Speaker 3: This is not Oh, this is gonna be a blowout.

379
00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:34,200
Speaker 2: Well, and here we go again with the annoying questions

380
00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:35,640
Speaker 2: people ask when you do this.

381
00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:36,720
Speaker 1: But but, but.

382
00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:40,000
Speaker 2: I gotta ask it because your wife's team has a

383
00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:44,320
Speaker 2: decidedly even though Lebron and Giannis, who are still playing,

384
00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:47,879
Speaker 2: she's got kind of a pre y two K vibe

385
00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:53,000
Speaker 2: thing going on, and and your son has got right

386
00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:54,040
Speaker 2: just a little bit.

387
00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:55,639
Speaker 1: More of a current, updated feel.

388
00:20:56,119 --> 00:20:58,320
Speaker 2: So I feel like I got to ask whose rules

389
00:20:58,359 --> 00:20:59,160
Speaker 2: are we playing with?

390
00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:03,720
Speaker 3: We're playing with, Oh, that's a good question, thank you,

391
00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:09,800
Speaker 3: since since we're going since we since we have older player,

392
00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:13,679
Speaker 3: we're going with the original rules. Uh, there's a lot

393
00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:14,879
Speaker 3: of contact out there.

394
00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:19,200
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah yeah, but but even still, your boys son's

395
00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:21,080
Speaker 2: got the largest human being in the history of.

396
00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:23,720
Speaker 3: The playoffs, the most dominant player.

397
00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:27,320
Speaker 2: Nobody, nobody on her team is stopping shack.

398
00:21:27,560 --> 00:21:28,600
Speaker 3: That's what I was saying.

399
00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:30,680
Speaker 1: I was just like, but but.

400
00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:36,960
Speaker 2: Nobody like her team can pick her, Her team can

401
00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:39,280
Speaker 2: pick on Steph defensively.

402
00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:41,600
Speaker 3: Yes, who's that who's the garden? Yeah, he's not gonna

403
00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:42,159
Speaker 3: guard anybody.

404
00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:47,439
Speaker 1: And that's the shortest person on her team. Is six seven.

405
00:21:48,359 --> 00:21:52,280
Speaker 2: Her entire team is six seven, so they but nobody

406
00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:53,119
Speaker 2: can guard Steph.

407
00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:54,840
Speaker 1: Nobody can guard Steph.

408
00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:58,080
Speaker 3: Either, No, because the Shack, the double team is gonna

409
00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:01,159
Speaker 3: have to come with Shack. My god, the double team's

410
00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:02,880
Speaker 3: coming with you. If you dumped that ball down, they're

411
00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:05,840
Speaker 3: gonna collapse down on Shack. And if Steph is passing

412
00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:08,360
Speaker 3: that ball, there we got a problem.

413
00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:15,479
Speaker 2: Steph, Kobe, Shack, Scottie and KD versus MJ, Lebron, Magic,

414
00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:18,960
Speaker 2: Giannis and Kareem. Can I just say this, and this

415
00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:21,560
Speaker 2: is gonna sound weird when the team's got Magic and

416
00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:24,439
Speaker 2: Yannis on it. But your son's team is like the

417
00:22:24,480 --> 00:22:27,200
Speaker 2: most likable damn thing in the whole history of the world.

418
00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:29,520
Speaker 1: Right he running.

419
00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:34,240
Speaker 2: Around with Steph, who's just like right like Captain Smile

420
00:22:34,359 --> 00:22:38,720
Speaker 2: and his front tooth goes ding. Kd's the nicest dude ever,

421
00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:42,200
Speaker 2: Shack what the biggest teddy bear in the history of sports.

422
00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:46,560
Speaker 2: Scotty is like this sympathetic figure because apparently Michael picked

423
00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:47,600
Speaker 2: on his whole life.

424
00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:50,800
Speaker 1: Like Kobe's the only mean dude on the whole.

425
00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:56,320
Speaker 3: Team, but you love Revere Kobe like it's just yeah, look,

426
00:22:56,800 --> 00:22:59,679
Speaker 3: look we're gonna open it up. You guys, you know,

427
00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:04,680
Speaker 3: tweet tweet me and twitter me or whatever they say

428
00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:06,840
Speaker 3: it is, and let me know what you guys think.

429
00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:10,680
Speaker 3: At e from Salaam, he's it. At Mark Willard, let

430
00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:13,639
Speaker 3: us know what you think about this, and we'll let

431
00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:14,040
Speaker 3: the people.

432
00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:14,680
Speaker 1: Don't tweet that.

433
00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:17,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, don't tweet that Mark Wheler though, because that's not

434
00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:17,960
Speaker 2: actually my hand.

435
00:23:18,119 --> 00:23:20,359
Speaker 3: What is this other dude that always gets it's funny.

436
00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:23,520
Speaker 2: I make people really really want to follow me. I

437
00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:28,040
Speaker 2: make you use the underscore twice. Yeah, I wanted to

438
00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:31,600
Speaker 2: make something I was never gonna have to change. So yeah,

439
00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:35,639
Speaker 2: Mark Underscore t Underscore Wheeler. So the shift key is

440
00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:38,959
Speaker 2: still a thing. It's a lot and that's actually that

441
00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:42,440
Speaker 2: describes me. So I figured it was a good match.

442
00:23:42,840 --> 00:23:45,040
Speaker 2: I want to I want to root for your son's

443
00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:48,800

444
00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:50,080
Speaker 2: it when your son's asleep.

445
00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:52,080
Speaker 1: That's how I'm gonna answer your question.

446
00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:54,440
Speaker 3: Well, you know who you know who can really shed

447
00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:57,119

Speaker 4: Steve let's deal with the fact. Shall we start with

452
00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:13,679
Speaker 4: the baseball scoreboard, then we'll get to some NFL golf tennis.

453
00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:17,360
Speaker 4: I did notice that somebody Mark Willid kind of dismissed

454
00:24:17,359 --> 00:24:19,920
Speaker 4: Scottie Pippin right out of hand, like he didn't even

455
00:24:19,920 --> 00:24:21,719

Speaker 4: You know he's not coming back in That ain't happening.

00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:36,480
Speaker 4: bottom ten or so. Of course, it includes Charles Barkley.

499
00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:39,760
Speaker 4: He finished eighty first place but was very happy with

500
00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:44,600
Speaker 4: his game. Jim McMahon eighty third place, Mike Golick eighty fourth,

501
00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:48,960
Speaker 4: DeMarcus Where eighty fifth place. I'm sensing a football theme.

502
00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:54,280
Speaker 4: Kyle Rudolph tied for eighty sixth, but Zach Lavine, current

503
00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:58,760

504
00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:01,040
Speaker 4: first the mizz back to you.

505
00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:02,800
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh.

506
00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:05,880
Speaker 2: By the way, can I share because you brought this up?

507
00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:08,840
Speaker 2: And I'll try to do a good job with the visual.

508
00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:13,320
Speaker 2: I have a DeMarcus where celebrity golf tournament in Tahoe.

509
00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:16,639
Speaker 2: Story really actually yes, and it has to do with

510
00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:19,359
Speaker 2: the fact that he does not belong in the top

511
00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:22,400
Speaker 2: ten of this tournament. So if you've ever been there,

512
00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:26,480
Speaker 2: or if you've ever seen it on TV, really there

513
00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:29,880
Speaker 2: you go, and this story will prove it. Like you've

514
00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:33,119
Speaker 2: ever seen the seventeenth hole, it's the one along the

515
00:27:33,160 --> 00:27:36,800
Speaker 2: water where all the partying is taking place. It's about

516
00:27:36,920 --> 00:27:38,919
Speaker 2: what would you say, Steve, is it about one hundred

517
00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:40,879
Speaker 2: and fifty yard Part three.

518
00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:42,480
Speaker 1: I don't know how they set it up.

519
00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:46,040
Speaker 2: For the tournament, but if just you know, John or

520
00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:48,960
Speaker 2: Joe goes and plays edge with Tahoe, it's it's a

521
00:27:49,040 --> 00:27:52,520
Speaker 2: not very long Part three. Over to the left of it,

522
00:27:52,560 --> 00:27:56,720
Speaker 2: there's a line of trees, and protected on the other

523
00:27:56,800 --> 00:27:59,440
Speaker 2: side of these trees is kind of a big area

524
00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:03,040
Speaker 2: where it's just a grassy area in between holes, and

525
00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:07,880
Speaker 2: the tournament uses that for all of their sponsors, their

526
00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:11,720
Speaker 2: food tents. Just kind of an area where people congregate

527
00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:12,840
Speaker 2: and hang out.

528
00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:15,119
Speaker 4: So this is where people are on the party boats

529
00:28:15,160 --> 00:28:18,040
Speaker 4: and looking at the on the shoreline you're talking about.

530
00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:20,359
Speaker 1: On the right, but on the other side of the hole.

531
00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:22,200
Speaker 2: So now it's on the right side of the hole,

532
00:28:22,520 --> 00:28:24,760
Speaker 2: on the left side of the hole, line of trees

533
00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:29,080
Speaker 2: and then big area, picnic tables, you got food tents,

534
00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:32,160
Speaker 2: you got gear, you got sponsors who are showing everybody

535
00:28:32,160 --> 00:28:32,560
Speaker 2: all their.

536
00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:34,760
Speaker 4: Stuff as apparently.

537
00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:35,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, okay.

538
00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:38,960
Speaker 2: So people are just hanging out and I'm over there

539
00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:42,520
Speaker 2: one year and I'm telling you, now, this is a

540
00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:45,959
Speaker 2: good solid like the hole is whatever you said, one

541
00:28:46,040 --> 00:28:48,920
Speaker 2: hundred and fifty two hundred yards. I'm over in a

542
00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:55,120
Speaker 2: food tent another probably one hundred and twenty five yards

543
00:28:55,400 --> 00:28:59,240
Speaker 2: left of the green, and I'm like getting a hot dog,

544
00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:03,360
Speaker 2: and and we're just sitting there and I got my kids,

545
00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:06,600
Speaker 2: and people are hanging out and we're talking. And I'm

546
00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:09,600
Speaker 2: just talking to the person behind the counter who's getting

547
00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:12,120
Speaker 2: the food, and I'm about to give her the money.

548
00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:15,720
Speaker 2: And I just noticed a ball just got boop boop

549
00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:20,280
Speaker 2: and foot the right end to like a bag that's

550
00:29:20,360 --> 00:29:22,000
Speaker 2: behind the concession stand.

551
00:29:22,600 --> 00:29:25,880
Speaker 1: And I'm like, where the hell did that come from?

552
00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:31,200
Speaker 2: Like right, I'm like, we were so far away that

553
00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:33,320
Speaker 2: nobody even heard it, you know what I mean, Like

554
00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:34,640
Speaker 2: no one even thought of it.

555
00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:38,000
Speaker 1: You're not like, oh, if you had yelled for you

556
00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:38,880
Speaker 1: wouldn't have heard it.

557
00:29:39,280 --> 00:29:42,800
Speaker 2: So this ball just trickles over and I'm sort of

558
00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:45,440
Speaker 2: of the mind of like, oh, some kid probably playing

559
00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:49,000
Speaker 2: catch with his little brother and this ball just rolled

560
00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:52,640
Speaker 2: into the bay. So whatever that was, weird. Get my food,

561
00:29:53,000 --> 00:29:55,800
Speaker 2: go sit down at the table. We're eating for about

562
00:29:55,880 --> 00:30:00,280
Speaker 2: five to six minutes. And then here they come the brigade.

563
00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:05,240
Speaker 2: It's DeMarcus where and a host of tournament officials and

564
00:30:05,320 --> 00:30:08,400
Speaker 2: they are all like on the search for the ball,

565
00:30:09,000 --> 00:30:11,320
Speaker 2: and I'm looking at these I go no way.

566
00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:14,200
Speaker 1: I walked up to them and I'm like, I got

567
00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:15,640
Speaker 1: bad news for you.

568
00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:19,560
Speaker 2: That thing I've never seen some and I didn't say

569
00:30:19,560 --> 00:30:22,160
Speaker 2: it like this, but I'm like, I know where ball is,

570
00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:26,520
Speaker 2: but my god, like this, I've never seen somebody hook

571
00:30:26,520 --> 00:30:27,360
Speaker 2: a ball that hard.

572
00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:31,760
Speaker 4: Don't tell that to the guy at six four two sixty, right.

573
00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:34,480
Speaker 2: I mean, it's like DeMarcus the hello, mister, this is

574
00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:35,520
Speaker 2: you canna get cowboys?

575
00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:36,000
Speaker 4: Great?

576
00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:41,400
Speaker 2: So come on over here, and like the ball it's.

577
00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:41,200
Speaker 3: Right over there.

578
00:30:41,520 --> 00:30:45,240
Speaker 2: It's right over there, next to the flat of pepsi

579
00:30:45,280 --> 00:30:47,080
Speaker 2: cola's that are behind.

580
00:30:47,560 --> 00:30:49,240
Speaker 1: Like it was ridiculous.

581
00:30:49,280 --> 00:30:52,520
Speaker 2: And they came over there and had to spend I

582
00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:55,800
Speaker 2: don't know what felt like fifteen minutes figuring out where

583
00:30:56,320 --> 00:30:58,560
Speaker 2: DeMarcus could drop the ball. And I didn't want to

584
00:30:58,560 --> 00:31:00,880
Speaker 2: tell anybody this, but the way they ended up figuring it,

585
00:31:01,120 --> 00:31:03,640
Speaker 2: I go, God, that was unfair. Like he got a

586
00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:06,120
Speaker 2: drop where I'm like, he like he should have had

587
00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:09,600
Speaker 2: to just take a five stroke penalty and roll, but

588
00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:12,040
Speaker 2: they gave him a spot and he hit it over

589
00:31:12,080 --> 00:31:13,920
Speaker 2: there and it kind of went over toward the green

590
00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:16,200
Speaker 2: and whatever. I think he made his double bogie and

591
00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:20,520
Speaker 2: moved on. I have never seen a more wayward golf

592
00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:24,400
Speaker 2: shot in the history of my life.

593
00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:27,880
Speaker 1: And it belongs to It belongs to that man. No Ephraim.

594
00:31:27,920 --> 00:31:28,960
Speaker 1: I'm telling you, man.

595
00:31:28,880 --> 00:31:31,560
Speaker 4: The scoring guys on this point system they use for

596
00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:32,680
Speaker 4: the Celebrity tournament.

597
00:31:32,720 --> 00:31:34,920
Speaker 1: You know, he modified state so much for a.

598
00:31:34,880 --> 00:31:36,920
Speaker 4: Par and so much for an eagle and so forth.

599
00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:40,120
Speaker 4: So Steph Curry going into today was plus fifty points

600
00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:42,560
Speaker 4: and DeMarcus ware was minus thirty five.

601
00:31:42,680 --> 00:31:47,360
Speaker 2: Gosh, this is because he hits the balls into the

602
00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:48,360
Speaker 2: hot dog tents.

603
00:31:48,840 --> 00:31:52,560
Speaker 1: Goodness, oh my gracious again, my man.

604
00:31:52,680 --> 00:31:54,960
Speaker 2: The only way I can describe it is a ball

605
00:31:55,040 --> 00:31:58,960
Speaker 2: got hit there and we were so far away from

606
00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:03,360
Speaker 2: a hole no one was even watching because balls don't

607
00:32:03,400 --> 00:32:07,040
Speaker 2: go there. That's the only way I can describe it.

608
00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:08,920
Speaker 3: That's like me out there.

609
00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:10,920
Speaker 4: So if it was that bad the other way, it

610
00:32:10,920 --> 00:32:13,240
Speaker 4: would have gone into Lake Tahoe, that's what you were saying.

611
00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:13,760
Speaker 4: Ye would have.

612
00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:16,920
Speaker 2: Gone into the middle of Lake Tahoe, which is about

613
00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:21,120
Speaker 2: eight miles long. Like yes, yes, the people in the

614
00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:22,520
Speaker 2: lip would have been fine.

615
00:32:22,560 --> 00:32:24,640
Speaker 1: It would have gone way over their heads.

616
00:32:26,320 --> 00:32:29,480
Speaker 2: So that's my DeMarcus where Lake Tahoe story, and I'm

617
00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:31,040
Speaker 2: glad he has not gotten any better.

618
00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:32,000
Speaker 3: Now.

619
00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:35,320
Speaker 4: This is like everybody gets to play all three rounds,

620
00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:38,520
Speaker 4: you have to come back, that's.

621
00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:40,040
Speaker 2: Right, right, Yes, Steve will break news next hour that

622
00:32:40,040 --> 00:32:43,520
Speaker 2: DeMarcus Ware got paid two point five million dollars to

623
00:32:43,680 --> 00:32:45,120
Speaker 2: come in eighty nine more.

624
00:32:45,040 --> 00:32:49,360

627
00:32:57,200 --> 00:33:00,000
Speaker 2: show Hey o Tani related question to ask you.

628
00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:02,160
Speaker 1: We'll do that next on Fox Sports Radio.

629
00:33:04,080 --> 00:33:04,440
Speaker 3: All right.

630
00:33:04,480 --> 00:33:07,960
Speaker 2: In the tie rag dot Com Studios Smark Willard and

631
00:33:08,120 --> 00:33:12,400
Speaker 2: e from Salam with you Sunday night. That's right back

632
00:33:12,440 --> 00:33:15,200
Speaker 2: to life tomorrow. Other than again, it's summer, so maybe

633
00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:17,600
Speaker 2: not for a lot of you out there, but however

634
00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:19,840
Speaker 2: you're bringing us in and whatever you're doing this evening,

635
00:33:20,160 --> 00:33:22,720
Speaker 2: we really appreciate you. Thank you so much, except for

636
00:33:22,760 --> 00:33:24,600
Speaker 2: shout out for those of you in Hawaii who it's

637
00:33:24,640 --> 00:33:28,920
Speaker 2: not evening at all. From here's my question. This is

638
00:33:28,960 --> 00:33:31,120
Speaker 2: what I hear everybody say when it comes to show. Hey,

639
00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:33,840
Speaker 2: you got to go ahead and trade for him now,

640
00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:38,320
Speaker 2: because that gives you two and a half months to

641
00:33:38,520 --> 00:33:42,000
Speaker 2: convince him to stay long term.

642
00:33:43,160 --> 00:33:44,000
Speaker 4: Does that work?

643
00:33:47,240 --> 00:33:51,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, it can work. It can definitely work. Can work, Yeah,

644
00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:54,600
Speaker 3: it can't. It's a difficult thing to pull off because

645
00:33:54,600 --> 00:33:56,560
Speaker 3: once a player has their mind made up of where

646
00:33:56,560 --> 00:33:59,360
Speaker 3: they actually want to go or what they want that

647
00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:01,840
Speaker 3: experience to be, is hard to break down. Now, something

648
00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:05,760
Speaker 3: dramatic and drastic has to happen to get them to,

649
00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:11,520
Speaker 3: you know, think outside the box, so to speak. It

650
00:34:11,760 --> 00:34:16,879
Speaker 3: definitely have to be Winning helps. So what I would

651
00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:20,120
Speaker 3: say is, if you're a team and you feel you're

652
00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:29,279
Speaker 3: on the cusp of winning, then a hell of a

653
00:34:29,280 --> 00:34:32,879
Speaker 3: playoff run in a in a World series birth would

654
00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:37,160
Speaker 3: would I mean that that's big volumes that changes it

655
00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:40,440
Speaker 3: is sure that that makes the scenery or the landscape

656
00:34:40,520 --> 00:34:42,360
Speaker 3: wherever you are much better.

657
00:34:43,680 --> 00:34:46,279
Speaker 2: Right, But that's like, what a what a sort of

658
00:34:46,880 --> 00:34:50,600
Speaker 2: risky gamble to take that you're going to go on

659
00:34:50,760 --> 00:34:54,399
Speaker 2: that run in that one year where you have him,

660
00:34:54,600 --> 00:34:57,880
Speaker 2: Like the whole idea of it can work. I guess

661
00:34:57,920 --> 00:35:02,799
Speaker 2: anything can work. But what if he truly doesn't have

662
00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:05,839
Speaker 2: his mind made up? If he doesn't have his mind

663
00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:10,319
Speaker 2: made up, My fear for any acquiring team would be

664
00:35:10,480 --> 00:35:13,040
Speaker 2: that in two and a half months, are you going

665
00:35:13,120 --> 00:35:16,560
Speaker 2: to do something that affects him so much that his

666
00:35:16,719 --> 00:35:20,200
Speaker 2: mind does become made up before he fits he hits

667
00:35:20,200 --> 00:35:23,400
Speaker 2: free agency, Because in those two and a half months,

668
00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:26,080
Speaker 2: even if he's got a great time, and even if

669
00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:30,880
Speaker 2: you win some when we're talking a half a billion

670
00:35:30,960 --> 00:35:34,160
Speaker 2: dollars or more, I'm pretty sure his agents are going

671
00:35:34,200 --> 00:35:36,840
Speaker 2: to be like, that's great. Now, let's go have the

672
00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:40,880
Speaker 2: free agency experience and you can easily have your mind

673
00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:46,040
Speaker 2: changed through that process. And the one sort of inchkate

674
00:35:46,160 --> 00:35:49,399
Speaker 2: thing I keep thinking of is even if he does

675
00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:52,480
Speaker 2: have let's say two or three teams right now where

676
00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:54,640
Speaker 2: he's like, those are the ones those are the ones

677
00:35:54,680 --> 00:35:57,840
Speaker 2: I'm really zeroed in on, and maybe he'd be honored

678
00:35:57,880 --> 00:36:00,560
Speaker 2: if one of those teams acquired him, right, But in

679
00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:03,680
Speaker 2: the process of acquiring him, that team where you want

680
00:36:03,760 --> 00:36:10,040
Speaker 2: to go just weakened itself, right, I get weakened itself.

681
00:36:09,880 --> 00:36:10,880
Speaker 1: For the long term.

682
00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:13,319
Speaker 2: You want to sign there for ten years, and they

683
00:36:13,440 --> 00:36:14,800
Speaker 2: just gave up four of their.

684
00:36:14,680 --> 00:36:16,640
Speaker 1: Best prospects in order to get you there.

685
00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:17,760
Speaker 3: Now.

686
00:36:18,440 --> 00:36:21,680
Speaker 2: So I almost feel like if show Hey really wanted

687
00:36:21,680 --> 00:36:25,360
Speaker 2: to join the Dodgers or the Giants or whatever it is,

688
00:36:26,320 --> 00:36:29,279
Speaker 2: it wouldn't show Hey be like, yeah, yay, don't don't

689
00:36:29,320 --> 00:36:31,200
Speaker 2: ruin your farm system for me right now.

690
00:36:31,640 --> 00:36:33,200
Speaker 3: I'll come to you no matter what.

691
00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:35,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, let's let's talk in November.

692
00:36:35,840 --> 00:36:38,759
Speaker 2: What you got a full bore going on in your

693
00:36:38,760 --> 00:36:40,879
Speaker 2: farm system and we're ready to rock.

694
00:36:41,200 --> 00:36:45,839
Speaker 3: Yeah. I understand that aspect, But there's also the aspect of,

695
00:36:46,960 --> 00:36:49,200
Speaker 3: you know, the Angels, if they're going to trade them,

696
00:36:49,200 --> 00:36:51,920
Speaker 3: they're going to trade them and try to get the

697
00:36:51,920 --> 00:36:58,200
Speaker 3: best deal. So what you don't want to do is

698
00:36:58,280 --> 00:37:00,160
Speaker 3: if you're one of those teams that you think he

699
00:37:00,200 --> 00:37:04,080
Speaker 3: wants to go to stan Pat and then you know

700
00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:10,760
Speaker 3: what I mentioned happens, He ends up being traded somewhere.

701
00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:13,520
Speaker 3: They had a hell of a run. He feels comfortable.

702
00:37:13,560 --> 00:37:16,000
Speaker 3: He wants to keep that thing going, whatever that is.

703
00:37:16,440 --> 00:37:22,840
Speaker 3: And then you lose him. So are you active or reactive?

704
00:37:26,000 --> 00:37:27,680
Speaker 3: I get it. I get it.

705
00:37:27,719 --> 00:37:30,280
Speaker 2: And let's say, right like, none of us are focused

706
00:37:30,280 --> 00:37:33,120
Speaker 2: on the Yankees actually getting him. But let's say he

707
00:37:33,160 --> 00:37:35,879
Speaker 2: got traded there and buster one even said he.

708
00:37:35,800 --> 00:37:40,359
Speaker 3: Would say he would you think so he wouldn't leave.

709
00:37:40,400 --> 00:37:44,200
Speaker 3: I don't think the biggest brand in baseball except for.

710
00:37:44,160 --> 00:37:46,640
Speaker 1: He wouldn't even be the biggest brand on their own team.

711
00:37:46,920 --> 00:37:52,680
Speaker 3: Now you you want to talk about a marketing storm, now, boy,

712
00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:54,840
Speaker 3: him and Aaron and O.

713
00:37:56,239 --> 00:37:58,840
Speaker 2: I don't think that's what like, I'm just this is

714
00:37:58,920 --> 00:38:00,960
Speaker 2: a wild perception and worth nothing.

715
00:38:01,800 --> 00:38:04,200
Speaker 1: I don't think that's what makes that dude tick.

716
00:38:05,480 --> 00:38:09,200
Speaker 2: Yankee stripes, big money and another big star on the team.

717
00:38:09,440 --> 00:38:12,640
Speaker 3: But it's the stage, though, it's the stage. Everybody wants

718
00:38:12,640 --> 00:38:15,879
Speaker 3: to play on the biggest stage. That's the whole point. Hicked.

719
00:38:16,560 --> 00:38:17,799
Speaker 1: He picked the Angels.

720
00:38:18,760 --> 00:38:21,800
Speaker 2: He picked the Angels the first time he had a chance.

721
00:38:22,239 --> 00:38:25,279
Speaker 2: If the stage mattered to him, there's no way. Oh

722
00:38:25,320 --> 00:38:26,840
Speaker 2: he'd be an Anaheim.

723
00:38:27,040 --> 00:38:30,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, he was a kid just he was a kid then, right, Yeah,

724
00:38:31,520 --> 00:38:33,000
Speaker 3: it's been six years.

725
00:38:33,160 --> 00:38:36,040
Speaker 1: It's been six years, but he's got people. Yeah, but

726
00:38:36,120 --> 00:38:36,640
Speaker 1: what's cooking?

727
00:38:36,719 --> 00:38:40,080
Speaker 3: Man? But this was this was the first time he

728
00:38:40,840 --> 00:38:45,319
Speaker 3: was over here. Correct, it's la it's Anaheim, it's but

729
00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:47,480
Speaker 3: you understand what I'm saying in terms of a work

730
00:38:47,520 --> 00:38:51,719
Speaker 3: capacity like this is and and look, the Angels that's

731
00:38:51,760 --> 00:38:55,160
Speaker 3: a brand, that's a real brand. You're in southern California, man,

732
00:38:55,480 --> 00:38:58,520
Speaker 3: Disneyland is next door. All of that. It all means

733
00:38:58,520 --> 00:39:01,200
Speaker 3: something until it doesn't.

734
00:39:01,080 --> 00:39:07,360
Speaker 2: Does when you're talking Dodgers, Yankees, Red Sox, Giants, Cubs.

735
00:39:07,960 --> 00:39:12,480
Speaker 3: The Angels brand isn't even half so at the time,

736
00:39:12,840 --> 00:39:17,759
Speaker 3: not even half. You're absolutely right. But at the time, uh,

737
00:39:18,320 --> 00:39:21,720
Speaker 3: it was what Mike trout. They had our pool halls,

738
00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:27,400
Speaker 3: like all of these things that seemed amazing.

739
00:39:28,480 --> 00:39:31,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, right, and they haven't had they don't have a

740
00:39:31,040 --> 00:39:32,200
Speaker 2: good year in twenty years.

741
00:39:32,440 --> 00:39:36,080
Speaker 3: It's exactly right with all those So now it's like, oh, okay,

742
00:39:36,120 --> 00:39:38,319
Speaker 3: well that didn't work. So where we going now? What

743
00:39:38,360 --> 00:39:42,279
Speaker 3: we're doing? Now? What are we doing now? And to me,

744
00:39:42,320 --> 00:39:47,200
Speaker 3: I'm looking, I'm just see if I was Angels.

745
00:39:46,719 --> 00:39:50,080
Speaker 2: Thing to me, the Angels thing to me suggests that

746
00:39:50,120 --> 00:39:54,279
Speaker 2: the West Coast matters more than then we may realize,

747
00:39:54,320 --> 00:39:55,920
Speaker 2: and we do hear people say that anyway.

748
00:39:56,040 --> 00:39:56,759
Speaker 3: I agree with that.

749
00:39:56,840 --> 00:39:59,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, so that's why I like.

750
00:40:00,600 --> 00:40:02,520
Speaker 2: I think there are a couple of East Coast teams

751
00:40:02,560 --> 00:40:04,680
Speaker 2: that might be a factor here. I do not think

752
00:40:04,719 --> 00:40:08,120
Speaker 2: that the New York Yankees are one of them. But

753
00:40:08,160 --> 00:40:10,520
Speaker 2: we can talk a lot more about that coming up.

754
00:40:10,560 --> 00:40:13,160
Speaker 2: Plus I got a Steph question for you too. We'll

Speaker 4: That is that what we're doing.

781
00:41:40,840 --> 00:41:42,960
Speaker 3: No, I'm mastering. If you see the highlight now, man,

782
00:41:43,360 --> 00:41:46,720
Speaker 3: don't church it? I do, but I'm no, yes, no,

783
00:41:46,760 --> 00:41:50,239
Speaker 3: come on, all right, I'm good. Here, here's here's all

784
00:41:50,280 --> 00:41:53,920
Speaker 3: I need. All I need is to describe it to

785
00:41:54,040 --> 00:41:57,239
Speaker 3: you this way. With each.

786
00:41:58,560 --> 00:42:04,600
Speaker 2: Highlight, Steph Curry celebrates as if the NBA Finals just

787
00:42:04,640 --> 00:42:06,360
Speaker 2: got won all over again.

788
00:42:07,400 --> 00:42:09,359
Speaker 1: The hole in one yesterday was.

789
00:42:09,360 --> 00:42:12,160
Speaker 2: Followed by Steph going on an all out sprint from

790
00:42:12,200 --> 00:42:14,440
Speaker 2: tee to green and then around the green and to

791
00:42:14,520 --> 00:42:18,359
Speaker 2: the fans and hats being thrown and hugs being had,

792
00:42:18,400 --> 00:42:20,920
Speaker 2: and same darn thing at the end of the tournament

793
00:42:21,200 --> 00:42:23,799
Speaker 2: to win with an eagle putt, an eagle walk off

794
00:42:23,840 --> 00:42:28,160
Speaker 2: putt on the par five eighteenth at Edgewood, Tahoe. He

795
00:42:28,239 --> 00:42:30,560
Speaker 2: has always wanted to win this tournament. If you follow

796
00:42:30,680 --> 00:42:33,400
Speaker 2: Steph at all, you know his love for the sport

797
00:42:33,440 --> 00:42:36,280
Speaker 2: of golf. And he was asked after the tournament today,

798
00:42:37,280 --> 00:42:39,600
Speaker 2: did this eagle putt to win the tournament? How does

799
00:42:39,640 --> 00:42:42,840
Speaker 2: it compare to a game winning three pointer? In his answer,

800
00:42:43,480 --> 00:42:49,680
Speaker 2: pretty damn close. So here's my question about Stephan Curry

801
00:42:49,680 --> 00:42:54,040
Speaker 2: for you, Ephraim, in your entire life as a sports fan,

802
00:42:55,520 --> 00:42:56,879
Speaker 2: have you ever seen.

803
00:42:58,280 --> 00:43:00,440
Speaker 1: A more seemingly.

804
00:43:00,320 --> 00:43:08,160
Speaker 2: Enjoyable, better sports life than the one that is exuded.

805
00:43:07,600 --> 00:43:08,760
Speaker 1: By Steph Curry.

806
00:43:09,520 --> 00:43:12,440
Speaker 2: I don't know what's actually going on behind the scenes

807
00:43:12,480 --> 00:43:15,760
Speaker 2: with any human beings, family life, mental health.

808
00:43:16,160 --> 00:43:17,680
Speaker 3: I don't want to guess.

809
00:43:18,400 --> 00:43:23,160
Speaker 2: But to our eyes, the show that this man puts

810
00:43:23,239 --> 00:43:25,520
Speaker 2: on on a basketball court prior to the game even

811
00:43:25,560 --> 00:43:29,840
Speaker 2: taking place, followed by the game itself, followed by the

812
00:43:29,880 --> 00:43:33,799
Speaker 2: success that he's had four rings, followed by the spotless

813
00:43:34,239 --> 00:43:39,480
Speaker 2: image and resume, the celebrity wife, the three beautiful kids,

814
00:43:39,760 --> 00:43:42,520
Speaker 2: the fact that he can play golf also at this

815
00:43:42,680 --> 00:43:46,279
Speaker 2: high of a level, the constant smile, the milk and

816
00:43:46,360 --> 00:43:51,239
Speaker 2: cookies to the point of almost being nauseating, life of

817
00:43:51,280 --> 00:43:55,680
Speaker 2: Steph Curry. Have you ever seen a sports life that

818
00:43:56,640 --> 00:43:58,800
Speaker 2: looks like that anywhere else?

819
00:44:03,520 --> 00:44:08,400
Speaker 3: It's pretty, it's pretty. It's pretty good. No, I haven't,

820
00:44:09,040 --> 00:44:12,920
Speaker 3: to be honest, not to that extent, not like that.

821
00:44:16,440 --> 00:44:19,839
Speaker 3: It's it's a it seems like things are lining up

822
00:44:19,920 --> 00:44:20,600
Speaker 3: for him, right.

823
00:44:23,360 --> 00:44:24,839
Speaker 1: It does seem like they're gonna work out.

824
00:44:24,920 --> 00:44:26,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's like things are working out in his favor

825
00:44:26,960 --> 00:44:29,239
Speaker 3: a little bit here, and.

826
00:44:29,200 --> 00:44:30,759
Speaker 2: I guess this is kind of what it makes me

827
00:44:30,800 --> 00:44:34,120
Speaker 2: feel like people will go, well, Michael Jordan is just

828
00:44:34,719 --> 00:44:41,800
Speaker 2: I mean, he has he has created a multi billion

829
00:44:41,960 --> 00:44:47,920
Speaker 2: dollar empire, but this is also a man that cannot

830
00:44:48,520 --> 00:44:51,440
Speaker 2: refrain from turning a Hall of Fame speech into a

831
00:44:51,520 --> 00:44:53,920
Speaker 2: big old middle finger to a bunch of people.

832
00:44:54,040 --> 00:44:54,760
Speaker 3: In his past.

833
00:44:55,680 --> 00:44:59,359
Speaker 2: Right, Like even what has come out this year with

834
00:44:59,400 --> 00:45:04,560
Speaker 2: regard to the relationship between Michael and Scottie. Again, I'm

835
00:45:04,560 --> 00:45:09,200
Speaker 2: not trying to get inside another man's head, but that's

836
00:45:09,239 --> 00:45:12,640
Speaker 2: part of what I'm getting at. Like Steph seems and

837
00:45:12,680 --> 00:45:15,480
Speaker 2: again seems I want to keep pointing that out, But

838
00:45:16,200 --> 00:45:20,319
Speaker 2: it feels like he has achieved a Q rating, a

839
00:45:20,360 --> 00:45:25,319
Speaker 2: likability among all of the international superstars who we've known

840
00:45:25,400 --> 00:45:26,880
Speaker 2: over the last fifty years.

841
00:45:27,600 --> 00:45:36,160
Speaker 3: That is unmatched. Yeah it you know, you can only lie,

842
00:45:36,239 --> 00:45:40,360
Speaker 3: you can't help believe. Just love Steph. First of all,

843
00:45:40,840 --> 00:45:44,520
Speaker 3: he changed the face of what the NBA looked like

844
00:45:44,719 --> 00:45:50,920
Speaker 3: and what it was deemed to be. And that goes

845
00:45:51,280 --> 00:45:57,400
Speaker 3: that's a generational thing. I coach nine ten year old basketball,

846
00:45:57,400 --> 00:46:05,040
Speaker 3: eleven twelve year old basketball, and now I have dads

847
00:46:05,120 --> 00:46:09,920
Speaker 3: just hell bent on making their sons the next Steph

848
00:46:10,000 --> 00:46:14,200
Speaker 3: Curry because they're not going to be since feet tall. Okay,

849
00:46:14,680 --> 00:46:20,000
Speaker 3: So that's a generational thing to where now dads aren't

850
00:46:20,480 --> 00:46:25,719
Speaker 3: lying to their kids, okay about yes, and you can

851
00:46:25,719 --> 00:46:29,080
Speaker 3: make it to the NBA right now, it's a now

852
00:46:29,200 --> 00:46:33,160
Speaker 3: right So now it's a if you want to make

853
00:46:33,160 --> 00:46:36,520
Speaker 3: it to the NBA, you got to be able to

854
00:46:36,560 --> 00:46:39,600
Speaker 3: shoot like this. The only way you can shoot like

855
00:46:39,640 --> 00:46:42,719
Speaker 3: this is if you work at it every day. Now

856
00:46:42,800 --> 00:46:46,600
Speaker 3: you got kids in the driveway before they going to school,

857
00:46:46,920 --> 00:46:49,680
Speaker 3: after they're going to shooting and shooting and shooting and shooting.

858
00:46:50,000 --> 00:46:56,040
Speaker 3: So that changed the perception of what an NBA player

859
00:46:56,280 --> 00:47:01,120
Speaker 3: is and should be. And that's a tremendous thing. That

860
00:47:01,239 --> 00:47:07,840
Speaker 3: makes him that much more likable m hm. And so

861
00:47:09,120 --> 00:47:13,759
Speaker 3: he is revered as you know, one of the faces

862
00:47:13,800 --> 00:47:15,560
Speaker 3: of the NBA, and that was.

863
00:47:17,160 --> 00:47:18,080
Speaker 4: Reserved for.

864
00:47:19,520 --> 00:47:24,239
Speaker 3: Someone six ' six or higher, unbelievable athletic ability in

865
00:47:24,320 --> 00:47:28,359
Speaker 3: terms of flying through the air and overwhelming dominance at

866
00:47:28,360 --> 00:47:33,880
Speaker 3: the rim right now, it's like, oh, no, no, you

867
00:47:35,160 --> 00:47:43,440
Speaker 3: if he worked at you know, Trader Joe's, you just

868
00:47:43,680 --> 00:47:46,560
Speaker 3: be like, oh, he working Trader Joe's. No, one would

869
00:47:46,640 --> 00:47:48,799
Speaker 3: walk up to him and ask him what team, like,

870
00:47:49,000 --> 00:47:51,040
Speaker 3: what team he played for? So I'm six ' eight.

871
00:47:51,480 --> 00:47:53,799
Speaker 3: Anywhere I am, people always say, well, you know, well,

872
00:47:53,800 --> 00:47:54,560
Speaker 3: who would you play for?

873
00:47:55,400 --> 00:47:57,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, you look like a pro athlete.

874
00:47:57,520 --> 00:48:01,640
Speaker 3: That's not that's not Steph Curry. No, which makes him

875
00:48:01,640 --> 00:48:05,560
Speaker 3: that much more endure enduring to fans. Yep, I've stood

876
00:48:05,560 --> 00:48:07,920
Speaker 3: next to Steph Curry. We about the exact same size.

877
00:48:08,160 --> 00:48:12,600
Speaker 3: It's like, dog, I can go to Yeah, a little

878
00:48:12,640 --> 00:48:14,480
Speaker 3: bit better shape, a little bit better shape on me.

879
00:48:16,040 --> 00:48:18,640
Speaker 3: I'm okay admitting it a little bit, a little bit

880
00:48:18,719 --> 00:48:21,320
Speaker 3: okay with a little bit. Yeah.

881
00:48:21,400 --> 00:48:23,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's a litle little tighter, you know what I mean?

882
00:48:23,160 --> 00:48:24,759
Speaker 2: He doesn't like you work out a little bit more

883
00:48:25,440 --> 00:48:32,719
Speaker 2: about the same, about the same, not the same. Yeah,

884
00:48:32,760 --> 00:48:36,640
Speaker 2: But I said this, I said this to my my,

885
00:48:36,880 --> 00:48:39,080
Speaker 2: you know my ninety five to seven the game audience,

886
00:48:40,160 --> 00:48:43,400
Speaker 2: you know, our our affiliate here in UH in the

887
00:48:43,400 --> 00:48:45,560
Speaker 2: Bay Area. I said this and it got sent out

888
00:48:45,600 --> 00:48:47,759
Speaker 2: on Twitter by my station, and people are like, oh

889
00:48:47,800 --> 00:48:50,920
Speaker 2: my god, this this guy says that, you know, somehow

890
00:48:50,920 --> 00:48:53,280
Speaker 2: Steph's better than Michael Jordan or Lebron combined.

891
00:48:53,320 --> 00:48:54,680
Speaker 1: And that's not what I was getting at.

892
00:48:54,719 --> 00:48:56,680
Speaker 2: What I said to the fan base and said, I

893
00:48:56,719 --> 00:49:01,120
Speaker 2: hope you understand you have the greatest superstar ever.

894
00:49:02,000 --> 00:49:02,320
Speaker 3: Now.

895
00:49:02,520 --> 00:49:05,920
Speaker 2: I may be stepping out of my lane there because

896
00:49:06,160 --> 00:49:09,719
Speaker 2: I haven't lived in any every market. I've lived in

897
00:49:09,840 --> 00:49:14,600
Speaker 2: all three of the large markets in California, but I

898
00:49:14,600 --> 00:49:17,120
Speaker 2: haven't lived in every market, so therefore, I don't know

899
00:49:17,239 --> 00:49:20,960
Speaker 2: what it was like to root for Brett Favre and

900
00:49:21,040 --> 00:49:23,600
Speaker 2: live in Appleton, Wisconsin. I don't know what it was

901
00:49:23,680 --> 00:49:26,839
Speaker 2: like to live in Miami when Dan Marino played there.

902
00:49:26,880 --> 00:49:28,080
Speaker 4: I don't know these things.

903
00:49:28,880 --> 00:49:34,400
Speaker 2: But Steph's not the greatest player who's ever lived, but

904
00:49:34,520 --> 00:49:40,239
Speaker 2: he's like the most spotless superstar as far as the

905
00:49:40,280 --> 00:49:45,680
Speaker 2: fan experience is concerned. We've literally almost gotten to the

906
00:49:45,719 --> 00:49:48,719
Speaker 2: point in our market where there's not a whole lot

907
00:49:48,760 --> 00:49:53,200
Speaker 2: to say about him because there's nothing to say about him.

908
00:49:54,960 --> 00:49:55,720
Speaker 1: There's nothing.

909
00:49:55,840 --> 00:50:01,280
Speaker 2: There's nothing controversial, there's nothing to chew on, there's nothing

910
00:50:01,320 --> 00:50:06,360
Speaker 2: where sides can be taken. There is no opinion that

911
00:50:06,560 --> 00:50:12,040
Speaker 2: is allowed about Stephen Wardell Curry other than just shake

912
00:50:12,120 --> 00:50:14,319
Speaker 2: your head and go, my god.

913
00:50:16,160 --> 00:50:16,680
Speaker 4: What else?

914
00:50:18,840 --> 00:50:22,239
Speaker 2: Like We've literally ended up in conversations where the man

915
00:50:22,320 --> 00:50:27,080
Speaker 2: will throw his mouthpiece and get a technical foul and

916
00:50:27,120 --> 00:50:29,200
Speaker 2: people like, oh my god, that was out of line

917
00:50:30,520 --> 00:50:36,400
Speaker 2: because he because he tossed a mouthpiece. That's what you

918
00:50:36,520 --> 00:50:40,920
Speaker 2: have on the man, Jordan Poole, Gods, you know what

919
00:50:41,000 --> 00:50:43,919
Speaker 2: I mean. I mean man, the man. The man will

920
00:50:43,920 --> 00:50:47,359
Speaker 2: make you crazy, Ephraim. It's clear the man will make

921
00:50:47,360 --> 00:50:52,680
Speaker 2: you crazy. But but honestly, if he is, you had

922
00:50:52,719 --> 00:50:55,400
Speaker 2: to if you had to come up with something compelling.

923
00:50:56,280 --> 00:51:00,680
Speaker 2: If Scott Shapiro, our great boss, came to you said, Ephraim,

924
00:51:00,920 --> 00:51:03,239
Speaker 2: I want you to do a show tonight, and you

925
00:51:03,360 --> 00:51:08,040
Speaker 2: need to come up with something compelling where people will

926
00:51:08,080 --> 00:51:12,040
Speaker 2: be able to take sides and chew on a debate

927
00:51:13,280 --> 00:51:14,800
Speaker 2: related to Steph Curry.

928
00:51:15,920 --> 00:51:21,680
Speaker 1: What on earth would you say?

929
00:51:22,520 --> 00:51:26,759
Speaker 3: I got one? Okay, I'm all ears, and it's not

930
00:51:26,800 --> 00:51:29,120
Speaker 3: a bad thing. If we want to debate Steph Curry.

931
00:51:29,160 --> 00:51:31,239
Speaker 3: The debate would be is he a point guard? Our

932
00:51:31,280 --> 00:51:37,160
Speaker 3: student guard? Okay, okay, because people of the argument is

933
00:51:37,160 --> 00:51:40,799
Speaker 3: he's now the best point guard. He's he's the best

934
00:51:40,800 --> 00:51:42,839
Speaker 3: point guard ever. And I'm like, that's not.

935
00:51:42,760 --> 00:51:45,640
Speaker 1: True because it triggers all you Magic.

936
00:51:45,800 --> 00:51:52,840
Speaker 3: It's because stepped look bad happen. Yeah, but it's not happening.

937
00:51:52,880 --> 00:51:54,800
Speaker 3: It's not happening. You can put magic. If Magic was

938
00:51:54,840 --> 00:51:57,279
Speaker 3: a rookie today, he would take over the league. Just

939
00:51:57,440 --> 00:51:58,719
Speaker 3: f y, I just can throw that out.

940
00:51:59,600 --> 00:52:02,880
Speaker 2: Magic is great, but it's not even about that because

941
00:52:02,920 --> 00:52:05,719
Speaker 2: the league has completely changed, and I don't even know

942
00:52:05,760 --> 00:52:08,160
Speaker 2: if coaches would be welcome with the way he plays.

943
00:52:08,320 --> 00:52:12,799
Speaker 3: Magic people a point guard today the way he did great,

944
00:52:13,160 --> 00:52:15,520
Speaker 3: it would there would be no.

945
00:52:16,719 --> 00:52:19,440
Speaker 2: But some analytics dorc would be like, yeah, but he

946
00:52:19,520 --> 00:52:24,120
Speaker 2: can't shoot, and but know that hook shot from twelve

947
00:52:24,120 --> 00:52:27,840
Speaker 2: feet is not really a great analytic, high percentage play.

948
00:52:28,480 --> 00:52:31,520
Speaker 3: I realize I'm arguing with the with a Golden State

949
00:52:31,560 --> 00:52:32,360
Speaker 3: Warrior fans.

950
00:52:32,480 --> 00:52:35,760
Speaker 1: No, but br I'm not arguing against Magic.

951
00:52:35,880 --> 00:52:36,680
Speaker 3: I'm it's still.

952
00:52:38,600 --> 00:52:42,520
Speaker 2: Because if you okay, here's my response, who is your

953
00:52:42,640 --> 00:52:47,040
Speaker 2: magic Jason Kidds style point guard who's wrecking the League today,

954
00:52:48,600 --> 00:52:50,080
Speaker 2: or do you want me to jump ahead to the

955
00:52:50,120 --> 00:52:53,320
Speaker 2: answer and tell you that nobody has one good because

956
00:52:53,360 --> 00:52:59,000
Speaker 2: they don't exist anymore. Dame Lillard and Steph Curry and

957
00:52:59,640 --> 00:53:02,839
Speaker 2: Russell Westbrook. The closest answer you could probably get would

958
00:53:02,840 --> 00:53:06,359
Speaker 2: be Chris Paul. But all of these other right, oh,

959
00:53:06,480 --> 00:53:10,319
Speaker 2: Jalen Brunson, they're all about to score on you. That's

960
00:53:10,360 --> 00:53:15,879
Speaker 2: what they do from three. And that was the Magic's deal.

961
00:53:17,520 --> 00:53:19,120
Speaker 3: It could have been if they needed it to be

962
00:53:19,600 --> 00:53:25,080
Speaker 3: when you got the mean, but he.

963
00:53:25,080 --> 00:53:28,120
Speaker 2: Wasn't gonna shoot that percentage from outside. And that's fine.

964
00:53:29,160 --> 00:53:31,400
Speaker 3: No history.

965
00:53:32,360 --> 00:53:34,319
Speaker 1: I ain't even about to get into that with you.

966
00:53:35,120 --> 00:53:35,799
Speaker 1: But think about it.

967
00:53:35,840 --> 00:53:37,920
Speaker 2: I asked you to come up with the most compelling

968
00:53:38,040 --> 00:53:41,040
Speaker 2: debatable thing about Steph Curry, and you came up with

969
00:53:41,160 --> 00:53:42,319
Speaker 2: is he a one or of two?

970
00:53:42,680 --> 00:53:45,000
Speaker 3: Like I'm supposed to get?

971
00:53:45,120 --> 00:53:48,279
Speaker 1: That's what you got. That's what you got.

972
00:53:48,280 --> 00:53:50,000
Speaker 2: If I asked you to do that with Michael Jordan

973
00:53:50,000 --> 00:53:52,560
Speaker 2: and Lebron you you'd be like, which one of the

974
00:53:52,640 --> 00:53:56,319
Speaker 2: ten sort of like controversial things do you want me

975
00:53:56,360 --> 00:54:01,200
Speaker 2: to come up with? But but with Steph, I don't

976
00:54:01,200 --> 00:54:05,279
Speaker 2: even know what you would say.

977
00:54:05,920 --> 00:54:12,239
Speaker 3: Yeah, you're right, it's wild it is.

978
00:54:12,480 --> 00:54:14,040
Speaker 1: I feel like that's hard to do.

979
00:54:16,160 --> 00:54:18,759
Speaker 2: At that level of celebrity for nobody to find a

980
00:54:18,840 --> 00:54:21,799
Speaker 2: wart or even just something that bugs him.

981
00:54:22,320 --> 00:54:26,439
Speaker 1: Well, Lebron had the decision, and I thought, okay, fine.

982
00:54:27,520 --> 00:54:31,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, right.

983
00:54:32,320 --> 00:54:34,400
Speaker 2: I didn't like how he donated money to the Boys

984
00:54:34,400 --> 00:54:40,160
Speaker 2: and Girls Club, like okay, but Kobe Bryant need I

985
00:54:40,200 --> 00:54:43,560
Speaker 2: say more, right, like we we revere him. But it

986
00:54:43,600 --> 00:54:45,440
Speaker 2: would not take you more than a second and a

987
00:54:45,520 --> 00:54:49,240
Speaker 2: half if I was like, okay, let's talk about some stuff.

988
00:54:55,040 --> 00:54:56,600
Speaker 4: It's having too much fun, man.

989
00:54:56,719 --> 00:55:00,719
Speaker 3: It's and that's how it's supposed to be. Right.

990
00:55:00,840 --> 00:55:03,560
Speaker 1: I wish when you wish, everybody look like they're having

991
00:55:03,560 --> 00:55:04,160
Speaker 1: that much joy.

992
00:55:04,280 --> 00:55:07,560
Speaker 3: But you, but you, you've worked hard, You've put yourself

Speaker 3: like that. I like that. That's pretty good. I know.

1028
00:57:17,360 --> 00:57:21,000
Speaker 2: Steve didn't like that when I said it either, But yeah,

1029
00:57:21,040 --> 00:57:23,560
Speaker 2: I I I don't know how to break that to

1030
00:57:23,600 --> 00:57:24,000
Speaker 2: your son.

1031
00:57:24,080 --> 00:57:26,720
Speaker 1: I just don't feel like Scotty should be on this

1032
00:57:26,960 --> 00:57:27,880
Speaker 1: my team.

1033
00:57:28,000 --> 00:57:33,880
Speaker 3: Look, son, to listen, listen. She told my wife to

1034
00:57:34,000 --> 00:57:36,720
Speaker 3: tell me or to tell you to put some respect

1035
00:57:36,760 --> 00:57:41,160
Speaker 3: on Scotty's name. Okay, okay, he can guard in all caps,

1036
00:57:41,440 --> 00:57:43,760
Speaker 3: he can guard Jordan, that's what.

1037
00:57:43,840 --> 00:57:44,200
Speaker 4: That's what.

1038
00:57:45,480 --> 00:57:48,320
Speaker 2: He can guard Jordan, as if anybody could guard Jordan.

1039
00:57:48,400 --> 00:57:50,680
Speaker 3: This is my year old son.

1040
00:57:52,120 --> 00:57:56,240
Speaker 2: Apparently there is an all out war in the Salaam home. Uh,

1041
00:57:56,280 --> 00:57:59,280
Speaker 2: the son, and and and the mom. Your lovely wife

1042
00:57:59,800 --> 00:58:03,840
Speaker 2: has have got their starting five, and nobody's eating dinner

1043
00:58:03,920 --> 00:58:04,560
Speaker 2: until they have.

1044
00:58:04,560 --> 00:58:07,320
Speaker 3: Figured out exactly who's his best.

1045
00:58:07,440 --> 00:58:12,800
Speaker 2: Your son went with Kobe, Steph Shack, Scottie and KD,

1046
00:58:13,200 --> 00:58:18,800
Speaker 2: and your wife took MJ, Lebron, Magic, Giannis and Kareem

1047
00:58:20,080 --> 00:58:25,280
Speaker 2: and Scottie. Pippen gets plenty of respect without him being

1048
00:58:25,520 --> 00:58:26,959
Speaker 2: in this particular game.

1049
00:58:28,320 --> 00:58:29,320
Speaker 1: That's all I'm saying.

1050
00:58:30,000 --> 00:58:34,560
Speaker 2: I mean, who's going to put anybody in this game

1051
00:58:35,520 --> 00:58:39,360
Speaker 2: who hasn't essentially, at least at one point in their career,

1052
00:58:40,120 --> 00:58:47,320
Speaker 2: been a star, a one on a finals winning team.

1053
00:58:47,440 --> 00:58:49,880
Speaker 2: Scotty's the only one who can't claim it on that list.

1054
00:58:51,880 --> 00:58:56,880
Speaker 3: He's got a point. He got him for defensive purposes.

1055
00:58:57,240 --> 00:59:02,200
Speaker 3: He's building out an uneven team. Okay, all right, Scotty

1056
00:59:02,640 --> 00:59:05,400
Speaker 3: was like an eight times on defense, and he's building

1057
00:59:05,400 --> 00:59:07,800
Speaker 3: out them as somebody.

1058
00:59:07,960 --> 00:59:12,000
Speaker 1: Grab somebody put him on the bench, or somebody's.

1059
00:59:11,640 --> 00:59:16,760
Speaker 3: Got to guard Lebron or Jordan's are Giannis right. I

1060
00:59:16,760 --> 00:59:20,920
Speaker 3: mean he's trying to build out an evil team, uh

1061
00:59:21,240 --> 00:59:21,800
Speaker 3: even team.

1062
00:59:22,720 --> 00:59:26,360
Speaker 2: The whole the whole deal with this is that you

1063
00:59:26,440 --> 00:59:28,120
Speaker 2: can't guard any of these people.

1064
00:59:28,520 --> 00:59:30,560
Speaker 3: Why them can be guarded?

1065
00:59:30,800 --> 00:59:32,400
Speaker 1: You did not guardable?

1066
00:59:33,520 --> 00:59:37,160
Speaker 2: Not guardable people were like shocks too big for Kareem.

1067
00:59:37,200 --> 00:59:39,760
Speaker 2: Kareem hauld just hooked the ball right over his head

1068
00:59:40,600 --> 00:59:45,240
Speaker 2: and shacks but would send Kareem into the second row dunk.

1069
00:59:46,600 --> 00:59:49,080
Speaker 1: Final score two to two hundred one.

1070
00:59:50,120 --> 00:59:51,439
Speaker 3: Somebody missed a free throw.

1071
00:59:52,440 --> 00:59:54,160
Speaker 1: Nobody's stopping these people.

1072
00:59:54,320 --> 00:59:58,840
Speaker 3: Hack a shack in the in the final two minutestes.

1073
00:59:57,760 --> 01:00:03,480
Speaker 2: Nobody, nobody's stopping these people. These are the biggest, the

1074
01:00:03,560 --> 01:00:05,440
Speaker 2: crazy child performers, the.

1075
01:00:05,440 --> 01:00:11,280
Speaker 3: Crazy, their benches are crazy. They gave me twelve players.

1076
01:00:11,320 --> 01:00:12,800
Speaker 3: I'm like, oh, that's the whole team. We can't do

1077
01:00:12,840 --> 01:00:17,120
Speaker 3: a whole team. But their benches are crazy Dirk Bird,

1078
01:00:17,440 --> 01:00:20,840
Speaker 3: nasty joker, Jimmy Butler, Embiid, Elgin Baylor.

1079
01:00:20,960 --> 01:00:21,640
Speaker 4: That's my son.

1080
01:00:21,960 --> 01:00:25,040
Speaker 3: My son knows who, he knows who Elgin Baylor is.

1081
01:00:25,680 --> 01:00:29,800
Speaker 1: Man like that is that's the pendulum on the clock.

1082
01:00:29,920 --> 01:00:31,800
Speaker 1: He went and Embiid and Elgin.

1083
01:00:32,760 --> 01:00:35,720
Speaker 3: I'm like, what is happening right now? My wife's benches

1084
01:00:36,840 --> 01:00:41,440
Speaker 3: Luca Wade, Reggie Miller, Allan Iris and Dennis Rodman, Jerry

01:00:49,560 --> 01:00:54,680
Speaker 3: text message and phone call. They're having this debate as

01:00:54,720 --> 01:00:58,800

01:03:19,240 --> 01:03:22,440
Speaker 4: one team. I'm going for that. Yeah we go, Jerry

1135
01:03:22,480 --> 01:03:25,959
Speaker 4: West off the bench. There we go, Jerry West.

1138
01:03:33,840 --> 01:03:36,920
Speaker 4: He was twenty seven points a game for his career.

1139
01:03:37,000 --> 01:03:37,640
Speaker 3: There you go.

1140
01:03:37,880 --> 01:03:38,880
Speaker 4: Three point line.

1141
01:03:38,960 --> 01:03:42,400
Speaker 3: Yes, baby, that's my wife's team. He is coming six man.

1142
01:03:43,520 --> 01:03:47,360
Speaker 2: So now are you offended that Scotty made the starting lineup?

1143
01:03:47,440 --> 01:03:50,520
Speaker 4: Steve, how come Jerry West at twenty seven points a game?

1144
01:03:50,560 --> 01:03:52,560
Speaker 4: It's not starting. He's coming off the bench.

1145
01:03:52,680 --> 01:03:52,800
Speaker 7: Man.

1146
01:03:52,920 --> 01:03:54,880
Speaker 3: We need that bealth in the second unit.

1147
01:03:56,920 --> 01:03:58,120
Speaker 1: Is that's the answer?

1148
01:03:58,240 --> 01:04:01,200
Speaker 4: No, three point line because he was a three point

1149
01:04:01,240 --> 01:04:03,600
Speaker 4: line He's averaging thirty a game for his career. Seams

1150
01:04:03,680 --> 01:04:04,800
Speaker 4: like Jordan or Wilt.

1151
01:04:05,120 --> 01:04:06,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, yep, easy, yeah.

1152
01:04:06,640 --> 01:04:09,520
Speaker 4: People cannot forget Jerry West. This is one of the

1153
01:04:09,560 --> 01:04:10,840
Speaker 4: greatest of the greats.

1154
01:04:11,080 --> 01:04:16,240
Speaker 3: You can't overemphasize the only finals MVP could not win

1155
01:04:16,320 --> 01:04:17,080
Speaker 3: the finals.

1156
01:04:17,200 --> 01:04:20,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, yep, that's how good he was. And then, by

1157
01:04:20,320 --> 01:04:23,520
Speaker 4: the way, he was a phenomenal front office executive. I mean,

1158
01:04:23,520 --> 01:04:25,880
Speaker 4: it's like two. It's like the Sho Hao Tani of

1159
01:04:25,920 --> 01:04:29,280
Speaker 4: the NBA. It's two careers, both Hall of Fame worthy

1160
01:04:29,360 --> 01:04:32,520
Speaker 4: and more lengthy. Just for the record, these Angels, by

1161
01:04:32,520 --> 01:04:35,840
Speaker 4: the way, are not winning now. They were, but you

1162
01:04:35,880 --> 01:04:37,800
Speaker 4: could say that in a lot of Angel games this year.

1163
01:04:37,880 --> 01:04:40,240
Speaker 4: They are tied with Houston now three to three in

1164
01:04:40,320 --> 01:04:43,000
Speaker 4: the top of the seventh. If the Angels lose this

1165
01:04:43,120 --> 01:04:46,120
Speaker 4: they will be forty six and forty eight on the season.

1166
01:04:46,160 --> 01:04:49,440
Speaker 4: Have we mentioned the trade deadline is August first? Just

1167
01:04:49,760 --> 01:04:52,400
Speaker 4: mentioning last night, the Angels did end a six game

1168
01:04:52,480 --> 01:04:55,720
Speaker 4: losing streak with a wacky ten inning thirteen to twelve, then,

1169
01:04:55,800 --> 01:05:01,720
Speaker 4: so stay tuned. Meanwhile, the extra inning games were plentiful

1170

Speaker 4: today in twelve innings, Philadelphia beat the Padres seven to six.

1171
01:05:04,880 --> 01:05:07,680
Speaker 4: Padres yesterday I got swept in a doubleheader there. Mets

Speaker 4: eleven inning win at Colorado for the Rockies over the

1175
01:05:16,120 --> 01:05:20,840
Speaker 4: Yankees eight to seven. Toronto beat slumping Arizona seven to five. Diamondbacks,

1176
01:05:20,840 --> 01:05:23,160
Speaker 4: still two back of the first place Dodgers in the

1177
01:05:23,280 --> 01:05:26,320
Speaker 4: NL West. I mentioned the Giants had won again. They've

1178
01:05:26,360 --> 01:05:28,120
Speaker 4: won five straight. They're only a game and a half

01:05:34,000 --> 01:05:36,800
Speaker 4: Sox won it Atlanta eight one a shocking weekend. They

1182

1184
01:05:42,320 --> 01:05:44,720
Speaker 4: first place team in the AL Central, won five to

1185
01:05:44,760 --> 01:05:47,360
Speaker 4: four at Oakland. The A's had lost seven in a row.

1186
01:05:48,000 --> 01:05:52,120

Speaker 1: twenty five and seventy.

1192
01:06:06,760 --> 01:06:08,919
Speaker 4: It's kind of like the Mets. They actually won six

1193
01:06:08,960 --> 01:06:11,960
Speaker 4: in a row recently. Aside from that, they're about twenty

1194

Speaker 4: games under five hundred the last few months. Rory McElroy

1221
01:07:35,400 --> 01:07:38,160
Speaker 4: gather in the villages to watch the riders pass. That's

01:08:53,720 --> 01:08:56,200
Speaker 4: was the way he put it. That does occur.

1244
01:08:56,640 --> 01:09:00,719
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, oh man, Uh you know what, uh, Steve,

1245
01:09:00,760 --> 01:09:02,519
Speaker 2: because of what you brought up, I wonder what boat

1246
01:09:02,720 --> 01:09:04,840
Speaker 2: both of you think about this because we're you know,

1247
01:09:04,920 --> 01:09:08,479
Speaker 2: you you reference the deadline and where the Angels sit.

1248
01:09:08,720 --> 01:09:12,200
Speaker 2: Is it fair for me to say, right now, major

1249
01:09:12,280 --> 01:09:16,360
Speaker 2: League Baseball, if you don't have fifty wins by now,

1250
01:09:16,960 --> 01:09:17,759
Speaker 2: you're a seller?

1251
01:09:19,200 --> 01:09:22,760
Speaker 4: Is that fair? Except for the Twins Division where you know.

1252
01:09:23,000 --> 01:09:25,480
Speaker 1: Well, right someone's gonna win that division.

1253
01:09:25,040 --> 01:09:27,519
Speaker 4: And maybe with a five hundred record. But yes, as

1254
01:09:27,520 --> 01:09:31,040
Speaker 4: far as wildcard chase, yeah.

1255
01:09:30,120 --> 01:09:32,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, if you look at it right now. The Yankees

1256
01:09:32,479 --> 01:09:35,000
Speaker 2: and Red Sox, for instance, have fifty wins. They're a

1257
01:09:35,040 --> 01:09:37,799
Speaker 2: game and a half out of the last wildcard spot.

1258
01:09:37,960 --> 01:09:39,320
Speaker 3: The Reds have fifty wins.

1259
01:09:39,320 --> 01:09:41,840
Speaker 2: In the National League, they're two games out of the

1260
01:09:41,880 --> 01:09:44,880
Speaker 2: last wildcard. Not the Pod not the Mets, not the

1261
01:09:44,920 --> 01:09:49,160
Speaker 2: Angel Right, there's a jump there. The Angels are five

1262
01:09:49,240 --> 01:09:52,439
Speaker 2: games out of the last playoff spot, which doesn't sound

1263
01:09:52,479 --> 01:09:55,360
Speaker 2: like much until you say that also means they're only

1264
01:09:55,439 --> 01:09:56,919
Speaker 2: ahead of five teams.

1265
01:09:57,120 --> 01:09:59,479
Speaker 4: Yeah, they hold them over about five teams to get

1266
01:09:59,520 --> 01:09:59,920
Speaker 4: up in the Orld.

1267
01:10:00,280 --> 01:10:02,880
Speaker 2: And the jump from the Reds in the National League

1268
01:10:02,960 --> 01:10:06,719
Speaker 2: goes six games to the Padres Cubs, and the Mets

1269
01:10:06,760 --> 01:10:09,840
Speaker 2: are six and a half behind the Reds eight eight

1270
01:10:09,960 --> 01:10:10,559
Speaker 2: and eight and.

1271
01:10:10,479 --> 01:10:12,439
Speaker 1: A half, respectively out of the last playoffs.

1272
01:10:12,560 --> 01:10:19,520
Speaker 2: Are all those teams, because that's some big like the Padres, Cubs, Mets, Cardinals, Angels,

1273
01:10:19,520 --> 01:10:21,760
Speaker 2: Mariners all.

1274
01:10:22,200 --> 01:10:25,639
Speaker 1: Could be sellers or do you give any of them

1275
01:10:25,680 --> 01:10:26,120
Speaker 1: a shot?

1276
01:10:27,080 --> 01:10:29,719
Speaker 4: Yeah, being missing the playoffs or being out of it

1277
01:10:29,760 --> 01:10:33,360
Speaker 4: doesn't necessarily mean being sellers two weeks from now, because

1278
01:10:33,560 --> 01:10:36,479
Speaker 4: front offices tend to think we have a chance when

1279
01:10:36,600 --> 01:10:38,000
Speaker 4: even their own fans don't think that.

1280
01:10:40,080 --> 01:10:42,640
Speaker 2: Like Ephraim are you you know what I mean Otani,

1281
01:10:43,000 --> 01:10:49,479
Speaker 2: Juan Soto, you know, Cody Bellinger, hell, Pete Alonzo, like

1282
01:10:49,520 --> 01:10:53,760
Speaker 2: I've seen, I've seen people suggesting all of these players

1283
01:10:53,960 --> 01:10:55,559
Speaker 2: could be should be traded.

1284
01:10:57,720 --> 01:11:05,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean that's weird in a sense that you

1285
01:11:05,240 --> 01:11:10,360
Speaker 3: seek out these players, right, it doesn't go well, and

1286
01:11:10,400 --> 01:11:12,599
Speaker 3: then all of a sudden it's like sell sell, sell,

1287
01:11:12,720 --> 01:11:17,840
Speaker 3: sell sell, which on one hand, yeah, okay, try to

1288
01:11:17,880 --> 01:11:20,479
Speaker 3: get some some things back in, but how many how

1289
01:11:20,560 --> 01:11:23,840
Speaker 3: many times are you going to restart the clock? How

1290
01:11:23,880 --> 01:11:24,760
Speaker 3: many clocks do you have?

1291
01:11:25,640 --> 01:11:27,840
Speaker 2: Well, I mean, let's le let's take the Padres for

1292
01:11:27,920 --> 01:11:29,720
Speaker 2: an example. And I know, I know you got your

1293
01:11:29,720 --> 01:11:31,880
Speaker 2: San Diego roots. Let's let's look at this team, the

1294
01:11:32,000 --> 01:11:34,800
Speaker 2: forty four and fifty. They've lost three games in a row,

1295
01:11:35,600 --> 01:11:38,479
Speaker 2: and they have whatever it is, seven or eight.

1296
01:11:38,320 --> 01:11:40,880
Speaker 3: Guys money off nine anyone.

1297
01:11:41,479 --> 01:11:46,200
Speaker 2: Nine figure salaries, and they fancy themselves as a landing

1298
01:11:46,240 --> 01:11:50,679
Speaker 2: spot for Shoheo Tani. And so if they are truly

1299
01:11:50,720 --> 01:11:54,680
Speaker 2: going to get into that conversation, I would suggest you

1300
01:11:54,800 --> 01:11:57,439
Speaker 2: probably need to get Wan Soto off of your roster

1301
01:11:57,560 --> 01:12:00,920
Speaker 2: right about now, because if you don't, you can have

1302
01:12:01,040 --> 01:12:04,080
Speaker 2: him for one more year after this one, and then

1303
01:12:04,240 --> 01:12:06,280
Speaker 2: you're essentially gonna have to let him walk.

1304
01:12:07,160 --> 01:12:11,920
Speaker 3: Yes, so are you trading for for show? Hey? Are you?

1305
01:12:12,200 --> 01:12:15,160
Speaker 3: Are you waiting? Like, if you're trading for him, then

1306
01:12:15,200 --> 01:12:18,360
Speaker 3: now that's piece of the puzzle. Correct.

1307
01:12:18,760 --> 01:12:22,320
Speaker 2: Okay, that's an interesting way to say it, right, the

1308
01:12:22,360 --> 01:12:23,080
Speaker 2: Angel if.

1309
01:12:22,920 --> 01:12:24,639
Speaker 3: You want to get him off the books, and if

1310
01:12:24,640 --> 01:12:27,200
Speaker 3: you want to move on and you want show, hey,

1311
01:12:27,840 --> 01:12:33,280
Speaker 3: now we're talking value. Now we're we're able to you know,

1312
01:12:33,400 --> 01:12:37,800
Speaker 3: save a few of those prospects and and and that night.

1313
01:12:37,840 --> 01:12:39,040
Speaker 3: That would be a huge move.

1314
01:12:40,040 --> 01:12:40,920
Speaker 1: Interesting thought.

1315
01:12:41,080 --> 01:12:43,800
Speaker 2: I would bet that in the process, if you're the

1316
01:12:43,840 --> 01:12:49,800
Speaker 2: Angels and you're going to dl Otani, do I want

1317
01:12:50,200 --> 01:12:54,120
Speaker 2: a superstar who is a already expensive So I'm gonna

1318
01:12:54,120 --> 01:12:55,639
Speaker 2: have to pay a lot for him for the rest

1319
01:12:55,640 --> 01:13:00,679
Speaker 2: of this year while I'm not contending, and then next

1320
01:13:00,760 --> 01:13:04,519
Speaker 2: year becomes his free agent year, I will pay a

1321
01:13:04,560 --> 01:13:07,840
Speaker 2: lot for him again and he almost certainly will not

1322
01:13:08,000 --> 01:13:11,880
Speaker 2: choose to resign here. So is that the value that

1323
01:13:11,960 --> 01:13:17,879
Speaker 2: I want for sho Hao Tani? I would say.

1324
01:13:17,680 --> 01:13:23,599
Speaker 3: No, Yeah, but I you know, crazier things have happened,

1325
01:13:24,200 --> 01:13:30,920
Speaker 3: Oh for sure they have. And you know it's it's

1326
01:13:30,960 --> 01:13:35,400
Speaker 3: in California, it's on the West coast. It's the money

1327
01:13:35,439 --> 01:13:37,519
Speaker 3: itself is just crazy in baseball.

1328
01:13:37,560 --> 01:13:40,120
Speaker 4: It's and it would be easier for the Angels if

1329
01:13:40,160 --> 01:13:43,599
Speaker 4: they weren't still paying Anthony Rendon crazy money for another

1330
01:13:43,680 --> 01:13:46,880
Speaker 4: three years. That the guy has fewer homers total as

1331
01:13:46,920 --> 01:13:49,400
Speaker 4: an Angel than he had his last year before he

1332
01:13:49,439 --> 01:13:51,000
Speaker 4: got the contract from Washington.

1333
01:13:51,160 --> 01:13:54,360
Speaker 2: I can't remember the last time the Angels weren't breaking

1334
01:13:54,479 --> 01:13:58,599
Speaker 2: checks off to somebody who wasn't doing anything, from Rendon

1335
01:13:58,760 --> 01:14:02,679
Speaker 2: to Holton all the way.

1336
01:14:02,479 --> 01:14:04,879
Speaker 1: Back to mo Vaughn. Yeah, like I I cannot.

1337
01:14:04,960 --> 01:14:06,800
Speaker 2: I don't know one time in my life where the

1338
01:14:06,840 --> 01:14:10,760
Speaker 2: Angels were not writing huge checks to somebody who wasn't helping.

1339
01:14:10,560 --> 01:14:14,080
Speaker 4: The rindon salaries like thirty seven mil. They're still going

1340
01:14:14,160 --> 01:14:17,160
Speaker 4: to be paying Mike Trout thirty seven mil in twenty thirty.

1341
01:14:18,000 --> 01:14:23,040
Speaker 2: That is crazy, and he's and he'll be hurt. Yeah,

1342
01:14:23,040 --> 01:14:25,400
Speaker 2: and he'll be hurt, and I hate that for him.

1343
01:14:25,439 --> 01:14:30,000
Speaker 2: But yeah, oh man, all right, First of all, we're

1344
01:14:30,040 --> 01:14:33,920
Speaker 2: in the ty iraq dot com studios Mark Willard from

1345
01:14:33,960 --> 01:14:37,439
Speaker 2: salam I mentioned a little bit earlier. Let's get to

1346
01:14:37,479 --> 01:14:41,400
Speaker 2: it coming up next, someone who had had past tense

1347
01:14:41,920 --> 01:14:45,960
Speaker 2: a steph like reputation, but maybe not anymore. That's coming

1348
01:14:46,040 --> 01:14:49,280
Speaker 2: up next on Fox Sports Radio. All right, we are

1349
01:14:49,520 --> 01:14:52,960
Speaker 2: live in the tire Raq dot Com studios.

1350
01:14:53,000 --> 01:14:56,559
Speaker 1: That is he from salam I, Mark Willard, Biggie.

1351
01:14:56,600 --> 01:15:01,280
Speaker 2: Did you see uh the Tyler hero sort of portion

1352
01:15:01,560 --> 01:15:04,920
Speaker 2: of the show The Latest with the Dame Lillard saga.

1353
01:15:06,000 --> 01:15:09,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, So Tyler.

1354
01:15:10,200 --> 01:15:15,400
Speaker 2: Is name number one, always involved in every trade package

1355
01:15:15,439 --> 01:15:19,240
Speaker 2: that we all toss around. When it comes to Dame Lillard,

1356
01:15:19,240 --> 01:15:21,439
Speaker 2: it's like, well, Tyler Hero is obviously going to be

1357
01:15:21,439 --> 01:15:27,519
Speaker 2: in it, right, and so Tyler Heroes agents have now

1358
01:15:27,560 --> 01:15:31,519
Speaker 2: had to come out and essentially say, look, if the

1359
01:15:31,560 --> 01:15:36,040
Speaker 2: trade does not come through, Tyler will still play for

1360
01:15:36,439 --> 01:15:41,960
Speaker 2: the Miami Heat. He's fine, He's a pro. However, yes,

1361
01:15:42,240 --> 01:15:46,599
Speaker 2: he is completely ticked off. He is completely hurt. This

1362
01:15:46,680 --> 01:15:49,960
Speaker 2: has not been good for the state of mental health

1363
01:15:50,000 --> 01:15:54,240
Speaker 2: with one Tyler Hero. You remember something very similar once

1364
01:15:54,320 --> 01:15:57,720
Speaker 2: upon a time happened to lamar Odom with the Lakers. Yes,

1365
01:15:57,960 --> 01:16:00,679
Speaker 2: part of a trade that then did not come together,

1366
01:16:01,360 --> 01:16:04,120
Speaker 2: and he couldn't get over it.

1367
01:16:04,800 --> 01:16:06,519
Speaker 1: He could not get over.

1368
01:16:06,360 --> 01:16:12,320
Speaker 2: It, and it essentially was Now there were many forms

1369
01:16:12,360 --> 01:16:15,360
Speaker 2: and many branches on this tree, but it sort of

1370
01:16:15,400 --> 01:16:18,040
Speaker 2: signaled the beginning of the end for Lamar in the NBA.

1371
01:16:19,240 --> 01:16:22,719
Speaker 3: Yeah, and it was crushing for him. It was crushing

1372
01:16:22,720 --> 01:16:25,599
Speaker 3: for him. And once you keep hearing your name, once

1373
01:16:25,640 --> 01:16:30,280
Speaker 3: you feel like you're a part of something. Family, just

1374
01:16:30,360 --> 01:16:32,439
Speaker 3: take it out of sports and you come home and

1375
01:16:32,840 --> 01:16:36,000
Speaker 3: you're at the family reunion and the next thing you know,

1376
01:16:36,880 --> 01:16:38,880
Speaker 3: you at the door with the potato salad for the

1377
01:16:38,920 --> 01:16:43,920
Speaker 3: cookout and they're like, hey, so.

1378
01:16:44,200 --> 01:16:47,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, so about that role we had for it.

1379
01:16:47,360 --> 01:16:51,160
Speaker 3: We have somebody else with the potato salad.

1380
01:16:51,280 --> 01:16:59,000
Speaker 2: So Tyler, Tyler just signed a new deal that starts

1381
01:16:59,000 --> 01:17:02,400
Speaker 2: this year for yours one hundred and twenty million dollars.

1382
01:17:02,439 --> 01:17:05,680
Speaker 2: This is a thirty million dollar a year player in

1383
01:17:05,720 --> 01:17:06,320
Speaker 2: the NBA.

1384
01:17:07,360 --> 01:17:10,839
Speaker 1: So he's a good ball player.

1385
01:17:10,920 --> 01:17:16,599
Speaker 3: The illusion of the old ever promising extension yep.

1386
01:17:17,240 --> 01:17:19,280
Speaker 1: And he is twenty four years old.

1387
01:17:20,040 --> 01:17:22,720
Speaker 2: That's all. So this guy's got a lot in front

1388
01:17:22,760 --> 01:17:28,920
Speaker 2: of him. And this, essentially, for me, put another log

1389
01:17:28,960 --> 01:17:31,880
Speaker 2: on the fire. In the Dame Lizard situation. You and

1390
01:17:31,920 --> 01:17:34,280
Speaker 2: I have talked a lot about it, and I still

1391
01:17:35,880 --> 01:17:40,320
Speaker 2: don't understand why we know what we know. That's what

1392
01:17:40,400 --> 01:17:43,800
Speaker 2: I That's what I don't get because people will say, oh,

1393
01:17:43,960 --> 01:17:47,800
Speaker 2: Dame deserves this, and Dame's got to speak for himself,

1394
01:17:47,880 --> 01:17:50,040
Speaker 2: and if Dame wants to, you know, Portland has not

1395
01:17:50,040 --> 01:17:54,080
Speaker 2: been able to get what he needed around him. And okay, fine,

1396
01:17:54,240 --> 01:17:58,440
Speaker 2: you can have all that opinion. What I don't understand

1397
01:17:58,520 --> 01:18:00,760
Speaker 2: is why Dame didn't go to the Blazers and go

1398
01:18:00,840 --> 01:18:03,920
Speaker 2: so I'd like to be on the Heat and then

1399
01:18:04,080 --> 01:18:07,360
Speaker 2: just leave it there. The fact that it's public suggests

1400
01:18:07,400 --> 01:18:12,080
Speaker 2: that something reactive or combative was taking place behind the scenes.

1401
01:18:12,560 --> 01:18:14,720
Speaker 1: And this is more collateral damage.

1402
01:18:15,240 --> 01:18:17,320
Speaker 2: You know, we all go, oh, hey, man, Dame's gotta

1403
01:18:17,320 --> 01:18:19,920
Speaker 2: be looking out for himself. Well, doesn't he need to? Maybe,

1404
01:18:19,960 --> 01:18:24,760
Speaker 2: like usually players look out for players. Dame Lillard going

1405
01:18:24,800 --> 01:18:29,719
Speaker 2: public has essentially ruined Tyler Heroes relationship with the Miami Heat.

1406
01:18:31,280 --> 01:18:32,439
Speaker 1: Anybody thinking about that.

1407
01:18:35,000 --> 01:18:41,960
Speaker 3: No, that's not Look Dame Little didn't say put Tyler

1408
01:18:42,000 --> 01:18:47,160
Speaker 3: hero into package the Heat chose to do. He made

1409
01:18:47,160 --> 01:18:50,960
Speaker 3: it public, Yeah, but he didn't. He didn't say, you know,

1410
01:18:52,360 --> 01:18:54,400
Speaker 3: for this guy or for that like that has nothing

1411
01:18:54,400 --> 01:18:55,760
Speaker 3: to do with him. He said, this is where I

1412
01:18:55,800 --> 01:18:56,200
Speaker 3: want to go.

1413
01:18:57,160 --> 01:19:00,000
Speaker 2: There's only a certain number of players who make enough

1414
01:19:00,040 --> 01:19:02,920
Speaker 2: money to even make a deal possible in the NBA

1415
01:19:02,960 --> 01:19:07,160
Speaker 2: do right, So if it's not gonna be Jimmy Buckets.

1416
01:19:07,680 --> 01:19:08,639
Speaker 1: Who else is gonna be?

1417
01:19:08,800 --> 01:19:11,160
Speaker 3: Well, I'll tell you this. It didn't help Tyler Herro's

1418
01:19:11,200 --> 01:19:14,479
Speaker 3: case by them making it to the NBA Finals without him.

1419
01:19:15,840 --> 01:19:21,400
Speaker 3: So there's that part of it. Okay, that's fine, Like

1420
01:19:21,520 --> 01:19:26,080
Speaker 3: you can get better, you lose a player that you know,

1421
01:19:26,240 --> 01:19:30,080
Speaker 3: essentially you made a historic run to the finals without him.

1422
01:19:30,400 --> 01:19:31,559
Speaker 4: I mean he can't be mad at that.

1423
01:19:32,880 --> 01:19:36,800
Speaker 2: Well, look, that to me is a completely different subject,

1424
01:19:37,080 --> 01:19:41,559
Speaker 2: and that's fine. I guess my overall point is Dame

1425
01:19:41,600 --> 01:19:44,640
Speaker 2: Lillard still wants to be liked through all this, and

1426
01:19:44,840 --> 01:19:47,439
Speaker 2: I just don't think you get to do that. You can,

1427
01:19:48,560 --> 01:19:51,360
Speaker 2: you can do this, but don't expect to be liked.

1428
01:19:52,040 --> 01:19:54,920
Speaker 2: We'll talk about that more and DeAndre Hopkins coming up

01:20:28,520 --> 01:20:32,800
Speaker 2: School when your kid is there, Hey, your kid's not

1442
01:20:32,920 --> 01:20:35,600
Speaker 2: acting right, and the first thought as a parent is

1443
01:20:35,720 --> 01:20:39,920
Speaker 2: O slow down now, principal, right as my kid, you're

1444
01:20:39,960 --> 01:20:42,800
Speaker 2: talking about that, And I think there's a little bit

1445
01:20:42,840 --> 01:20:46,120
Speaker 2: of that when we talk about Dame Lillard. This is

1446
01:20:46,160 --> 01:20:48,799
Speaker 2: not somebody you and I had this conversation last week.

1447
01:20:49,120 --> 01:20:51,800
Speaker 2: For me, I understand why he's having a hard time

1448
01:20:51,840 --> 01:20:55,320
Speaker 2: with it. Dame Lillard has never been involved in anything

1449
01:20:55,360 --> 01:20:59,519
Speaker 2: controversial in his entire life. He has never had to deal,

1450
01:21:00,120 --> 01:21:04,679
Speaker 2: quite frankly, with a negative opinion. In fact, if anybody

1451
01:21:04,760 --> 01:21:09,719
Speaker 2: looks at his failures, they instead they will immediately say, well,

1452
01:21:10,320 --> 01:21:14,400
Speaker 2: Blazer's never put anybody around him. So little guy, six

1453
01:21:14,479 --> 01:21:18,719
Speaker 2: foot two, unbelievable talent, Northwest corner of the United States.

1454
01:21:19,240 --> 01:21:22,679
Speaker 2: Most fans couldn't even name a teammate he's ever had.

1455
01:21:23,040 --> 01:21:24,400
Speaker 1: Maybe they could tell you CJ.

1456
01:21:24,560 --> 01:21:25,080
Speaker 3: McCollum.

1457
01:21:26,320 --> 01:21:31,360
Speaker 2: So we excuse everything, and that's fine, that's totally fine.

1458
01:21:31,360 --> 01:21:33,160
Speaker 2: And he was a player we didn't even see coming.

1459
01:21:33,600 --> 01:21:36,160
Speaker 2: In terms of where he went to college. So that's

1460
01:21:36,400 --> 01:21:39,160
Speaker 2: that's all fine, But when we get to this point

1461
01:21:39,640 --> 01:21:44,040
Speaker 2: habitually we look at Dame Lillard and go, oh, yeah,

1462
01:21:44,040 --> 01:21:47,800
Speaker 2: we're not going to take shots at that guy. But

1463
01:21:47,960 --> 01:21:52,880
Speaker 2: if you coined a quote, don't run from the grind.

1464
01:21:54,320 --> 01:21:58,360
Speaker 2: If you coin that and then you begin the process

1465
01:21:59,400 --> 01:22:02,920
Speaker 2: of demanding a trade out of town, doing it publicly

1466
01:22:04,080 --> 01:22:07,519
Speaker 2: to the point where you are pausing free agency across

1467
01:22:07,560 --> 01:22:12,320
Speaker 2: the league. And now also in your wake is other

1468
01:22:12,400 --> 01:22:17,360
Speaker 2: star players having ruined relationships with their own team, even

1469
01:22:17,400 --> 01:22:21,240
Speaker 2: though we don't even know if a trade is ever

1470
01:22:21,320 --> 01:22:26,439
Speaker 2: going to happen, Like, come on, man, how are we

1471
01:22:26,479 --> 01:22:28,840
Speaker 2: going to be like, well, yep, Dame gets to do that,

1472
01:22:29,080 --> 01:22:31,120
Speaker 2: Like come on, like, yeah, you.

1473
01:22:31,040 --> 01:22:31,640
Speaker 4: Can do it.

1474
01:22:32,520 --> 01:22:40,560
Speaker 2: But this is worthy of criticism what Dame Lillard has done.

1475
01:22:41,520 --> 01:22:49,080
Speaker 3: Well, yeah, I mean whenever you cause waves, shake up

1476
01:22:49,120 --> 01:22:54,599
Speaker 3: the you know, shake up the wave pool, then yeah,

1477
01:22:54,800 --> 01:23:01,400
Speaker 3: anytime a player demands something, then of course you have

1478
01:23:01,439 --> 01:23:05,559
Speaker 3: to deal with what comes after that, what transpires. He

1479
01:23:05,600 --> 01:23:07,360
Speaker 3: didn't say, hey, I want to be traded and then

1480
01:23:07,439 --> 01:23:09,200
Speaker 3: went and we didn't hear anything from him. He said,

1481
01:23:09,200 --> 01:23:10,120
Speaker 3: I want to be traded. I want to go to

1482
01:23:10,200 --> 01:23:11,280
Speaker 3: Miami Boom. That's it.

1483
01:23:11,320 --> 01:23:11,599
Speaker 4: That's what.

1484
01:23:11,920 --> 01:23:15,360
Speaker 3: So whatever it transpires after that, yeah, it's because they

1485
01:23:15,520 --> 01:23:19,479
Speaker 3: made this public and it's happening. The grand scheme of things,

1486
01:23:19,520 --> 01:23:22,040
Speaker 3: it really doesn't matter because after the trade is done

1487
01:23:22,080 --> 01:23:23,960
Speaker 3: and he continues with his career and all of that,

1488
01:23:24,400 --> 01:23:28,000
Speaker 3: whatever has transpired and whatever damage had been done and whatever,

1489
01:23:28,880 --> 01:23:32,800
Speaker 3: it won't matter. When Lebron did the press conference and

1490
01:23:32,840 --> 01:23:35,080
Speaker 3: I'm taking my talents to South Beach, it was like,

1491
01:23:35,120 --> 01:23:39,040
Speaker 3: oh wow, talk talk, talk, talk talk. They went to championships. Okay,

1492
01:23:39,120 --> 01:23:43,280
Speaker 3: it it goes away, does it? So?

1493
01:23:43,600 --> 01:23:44,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, it does.

1494
01:23:45,600 --> 01:23:49,840
Speaker 3: Like as a player, you know you he went and

1495
01:23:49,880 --> 01:23:51,760
Speaker 3: won his first two championships.

1496
01:23:52,160 --> 01:23:55,360
Speaker 1: So did anything go away for Kevin Durant.

1497
01:23:56,320 --> 01:23:59,000
Speaker 3: In terms of going to uh yeah, because the goal

1498
01:23:59,040 --> 01:24:02,000
Speaker 3: was to win championships, got two of them. So anything

1499
01:24:02,000 --> 01:24:05,160
Speaker 3: that transpires after that, it's just like, h whatever, I

1500
01:24:05,760 --> 01:24:08,639
Speaker 3: got what I would. I went away. But what happened

1501
01:24:08,840 --> 01:24:12,599
Speaker 3: is when you're in search of something, when you put

1502
01:24:12,640 --> 01:24:15,360
Speaker 3: all your cards on the table to accomplish something and

1503
01:24:15,400 --> 01:24:19,120
Speaker 3: to get to a place. Once you get there, you

1504
01:24:19,160 --> 01:24:22,040
Speaker 3: can deem that it was worth it because that's exactly

1505
01:24:22,080 --> 01:24:25,120
Speaker 3: what you set out to do. Okay.

1506
01:24:25,600 --> 01:24:29,120
Speaker 2: So here's why I bring up Kevin Durant, because these

1507
01:24:29,160 --> 01:24:36,800
Speaker 2: are completely different situations, and quite frankly, especially working in

1508
01:24:37,360 --> 01:24:39,840
Speaker 2: the market where I am. Although I wasn't quite here

1509
01:24:40,280 --> 01:24:43,320
Speaker 2: at the time of Kevin Durant's move, I sat here

1510
01:24:43,360 --> 01:24:46,000
Speaker 2: and watched the national media spend the better part of

1511
01:24:46,040 --> 01:24:51,360
Speaker 2: a year and a half destroying this dude for doing

1512
01:24:51,439 --> 01:24:54,600
Speaker 2: something nowhere near.

1513
01:24:55,920 --> 01:24:57,120
Speaker 1: As bad as.

1514
01:24:56,960 --> 01:25:00,360
Speaker 2: What Dame Lillard is doing right now, because Kevin had

1515
01:25:00,439 --> 01:25:01,960
Speaker 2: earned the right to do it.

1516
01:25:02,560 --> 01:25:05,639
Speaker 1: All Kevin did was go, I want to go play there.

1517
01:25:07,080 --> 01:25:11,360
Speaker 2: Fine, and you're allowed to criticize, you're allowed to not

1518
01:25:11,560 --> 01:25:15,080
Speaker 2: like it. But isn't it fascinating? Dame Lillard has literally

1519
01:25:15,120 --> 01:25:21,559
Speaker 2: made a brand out of himself criticizing the decision that

1520
01:25:21,680 --> 01:25:25,519
Speaker 2: Kevin Durant and others like him have made, even though

1521
01:25:25,520 --> 01:25:28,320
Speaker 2: they had worked their career to a spot where they

1522
01:25:28,400 --> 01:25:31,760
Speaker 2: had earned, as actually earned.

1523
01:25:32,040 --> 01:25:36,920
Speaker 1: The right to make that decision. Dame hasn't. Dame has not.

1524
01:25:38,040 --> 01:25:40,360
Speaker 2: Dame signed a piece of paper and said I will

1525
01:25:40,360 --> 01:25:43,680
Speaker 2: do this, and now he is demanding to go do

1526
01:25:43,840 --> 01:25:47,880
Speaker 2: that even though he does not have the contractual right

1527
01:25:47,960 --> 01:25:52,320
Speaker 2: to do so. The Blazers, of course, get put in

1528
01:25:52,400 --> 01:25:57,000
Speaker 2: a horrible spot because keep him or get rid of him,

1529
01:25:57,360 --> 01:26:00,160
Speaker 2: you end up with egg on your face and on

1530
01:26:00,200 --> 01:26:02,040
Speaker 2: the way out the door, everyone will tell you it

1531
01:26:02,160 --> 01:26:05,280
Speaker 2: was your fault that it got here, even though nobody

1532
01:26:05,400 --> 01:26:07,320
Speaker 2: ever goes to Portland as a free agent.

1533
01:26:07,720 --> 01:26:09,840
Speaker 1: So what is it exactly you'd like them to go do?

1534
01:26:09,960 --> 01:26:13,040
Speaker 3: Well, I tell you the writing on the wall and

1535
01:26:13,080 --> 01:26:16,599
Speaker 3: the proverbial nail, the proverbial kneil in the coffin was

1536
01:26:19,080 --> 01:26:23,400
Speaker 3: them drafting Scoot instead of trading with that pick for

1537
01:26:23,760 --> 01:26:28,200
Speaker 3: like a real tangible superstar that can come help. Once

1538
01:26:28,280 --> 01:26:30,600
Speaker 3: that happened, then he knew, okay, well this is this

1539
01:26:30,640 --> 01:26:31,280
Speaker 3: is not gonna work.

1540
01:26:32,200 --> 01:26:34,639
Speaker 1: Okay, fair point.

1541
01:26:34,800 --> 01:26:36,760
Speaker 3: So that was the hope he was holding out for.

1542
01:26:37,280 --> 01:26:39,679
Speaker 3: You know, some draft day magic where you trade away

1543
01:26:39,880 --> 01:26:43,280
Speaker 3: the what was it, the third pick in the draft,

1544
01:26:43,840 --> 01:26:47,880
Speaker 3: third pick, and you got some real help. I don't know,

1545
01:26:47,880 --> 01:26:49,439
Speaker 3: I don't know who. I don't know who the player.

1546
01:26:49,520 --> 01:26:52,400
Speaker 3: I don't know who that player is. Yeah, I don't

1547
01:26:52,400 --> 01:26:53,400
Speaker 3: know who that player is.

1548
01:26:53,840 --> 01:26:56,000
Speaker 1: And the Blazers feel one player away.

1549
01:26:56,520 --> 01:26:59,600
Speaker 3: No, no, but you know, if you if you have

1550
01:26:59,880 --> 01:27:03,280
Speaker 3: the top three draft picks that we had outside of

1551
01:27:03,360 --> 01:27:06,240
Speaker 3: the rest of the draft, we knew those top three

1552
01:27:06,320 --> 01:27:17,280
Speaker 3: were highly coveted prospects. Victor came from Alabama and Brandon

1553
01:27:17,600 --> 01:27:24,760
Speaker 3: and UH School, So that was the value in those picks.

1554
01:27:25,360 --> 01:27:30,320
Speaker 3: So if a team was willing to trade a real

1555
01:27:31,240 --> 01:27:34,639
Speaker 3: you know, star or whatever, that is what I don't

1556
01:27:34,640 --> 01:27:38,000
Speaker 3: know what Dame would have been okay with. But once

1557
01:27:38,080 --> 01:27:40,680
Speaker 3: that didn't happen, he knew, Okay, they're going young and

1558
01:27:40,760 --> 01:27:42,639
Speaker 3: I'm not. I'm not, I'm not on that ride.

1559
01:27:43,280 --> 01:27:47,640
Speaker 2: I feel like this conversation behind closed doors with the

1560
01:27:47,680 --> 01:27:50,719
Speaker 2: Blazers had to be happening before the draft even started.

1561
01:27:50,760 --> 01:27:54,519
Speaker 2: I firmly believe that, because again I still want to

1562
01:27:54,560 --> 01:27:56,400
Speaker 2: know what it was that happened that brought it here.

1563
01:27:57,240 --> 01:27:59,800
Speaker 2: What was it that Portland did to Dame Lillard. That's

1564
01:28:00,200 --> 01:28:02,439
Speaker 2: just not only am I going to demand a trade,

1565
01:28:03,000 --> 01:28:05,120
Speaker 2: I'm going to do it publicly. That suggests to me

1566
01:28:05,240 --> 01:28:10,000
Speaker 2: that the trade demand was actually weeks prior to us finding.

1567
01:28:09,680 --> 01:28:10,200
Speaker 3: Out about it.

1568
01:28:10,240 --> 01:28:14,719
Speaker 2: Wouldn't you wouldn't you agree that in sports what goes

1569
01:28:14,760 --> 01:28:18,320
Speaker 2: on the seeds are planted and things are happening.

1570
01:28:19,760 --> 01:28:22,040
Speaker 4: Way well beyond way before.

1571
01:28:23,200 --> 01:28:27,120
Speaker 2: Right, Yes, So that says to me that maybe this

1572
01:28:27,120 --> 01:28:29,479
Speaker 2: this ball is well in motion before the name Scoot

1573
01:28:29,520 --> 01:28:32,759
Speaker 2: Henderson even comes out of Adam Silver's mouth.

1574
01:28:34,680 --> 01:28:36,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, and I get that.

1575
01:28:36,520 --> 01:28:41,439
Speaker 3: I understand that, And it just looked this was a

1576
01:28:41,520 --> 01:28:45,000
Speaker 3: foregone conclusion. Dame wanted to stay in Portland. We know

1577
01:28:45,120 --> 01:28:48,519
Speaker 3: he wanted to stay in Portland. But when you start

1578
01:28:48,600 --> 01:28:54,960
Speaker 3: getting to the other side of your career, you as

1579
01:28:55,000 --> 01:29:00,720
Speaker 3: a player are going to make decisions to make sure

1580
01:29:00,760 --> 01:29:03,439
Speaker 3: you get the most out of the latter part of

1581
01:29:03,479 --> 01:29:07,479
Speaker 3: your of your journey, and it's a tough thing to do.

1582
01:29:07,560 --> 01:29:08,519
Speaker 3: It's a tough thing to do.

1583
01:29:09,560 --> 01:29:10,360
Speaker 1: I'm good with it.

1584
01:29:11,280 --> 01:29:15,240
Speaker 2: What I'm not doing the execution, the publicity, This was

1585
01:29:15,320 --> 01:29:19,600
Speaker 2: like the the decisions. Fine, the execution is as clunky

1586
01:29:19,600 --> 01:29:31,240
Speaker 2: as hell. It is absolutely clunky as hell. And and

1587
01:29:31,400 --> 01:29:34,040
Speaker 2: again I would say even less about it if he

1588
01:29:34,120 --> 01:29:37,560
Speaker 2: hadn't built a brand around being Captain loyal.

1589
01:29:39,439 --> 01:29:40,439
Speaker 3: Dude cruising around with.

1590
01:29:40,400 --> 01:29:46,760
Speaker 1: Big l on his cape. So that's that's what I

1591
01:29:46,800 --> 01:29:48,640
Speaker 1: guess sort of gets it gets me.

1592
01:29:49,200 --> 01:29:53,839
Speaker 2: He has been outspoken from the days of Kevin Durant

1593
01:29:53,920 --> 01:29:56,960
Speaker 2: making the move that he made, and now to make

1594
01:29:57,000 --> 01:29:59,720
Speaker 2: a similar decision when it's technically not even your right

1595
01:29:59,760 --> 01:30:05,680
Speaker 2: to make, and there is just a truckload of collateral

1596
01:30:05,800 --> 01:30:09,439
Speaker 2: damage that feels like it is taking place in this

1597
01:30:09,560 --> 01:30:11,000
Speaker 2: particular pursuit.

1598
01:30:15,280 --> 01:30:21,040
Speaker 3: It's it's messy. Most divorces are most separations and then

1599
01:30:21,080 --> 01:30:26,360
Speaker 3: divorces are but over time people get you know, there's

1600
01:30:26,479 --> 01:30:31,719
Speaker 3: healing there. There should be healing there. So's he's willing

1601
01:30:34,320 --> 01:30:37,800
Speaker 3: to break free out of this relationship and you know,

1602
01:30:37,960 --> 01:30:43,400
Speaker 3: whatever they get in return, hopefully that there's you know,

1603
01:30:44,400 --> 01:30:49,000
Speaker 3: a healing notion to that. Whatever Portland gets in return,

1604
01:30:49,560 --> 01:30:53,559
Speaker 3: can they build from there. They got a young star

1605
01:30:53,840 --> 01:30:59,719
Speaker 3: who has some promise, potential, a lot of potential, damed

1606
01:30:59,720 --> 01:31:02,600
Speaker 3: in one to play with potential anymore. It just you

1607
01:31:02,720 --> 01:31:05,439
Speaker 3: just didn't want to. He's watched his boy c J

1608
01:31:06,160 --> 01:31:09,160
Speaker 3: leave and go to New Orleans and get a rebirth,

1609
01:31:10,640 --> 01:31:17,320
Speaker 3: playing good basketball, got a nice team around him, So yeah,

1610
01:31:17,360 --> 01:31:21,160
Speaker 3: why wouldn't he want to follow suit? That was his guy, Yeah,

1611
01:31:22,120 --> 01:31:22,760
Speaker 3: that was his guy.

1612
01:31:23,640 --> 01:31:29,920
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, I like, yeah, I get the desire. I

1613
01:31:30,479 --> 01:31:35,160
Speaker 2: just think there was a completely different way for for

1614
01:31:35,240 --> 01:31:36,280
Speaker 2: him to handle.

1615
01:31:36,000 --> 01:31:37,720
Speaker 1: This, this particular situation.

1616
01:31:39,000 --> 01:31:44,160
Speaker 2: And uh, stay off of Twitter asking everybody to to

1617
01:31:44,439 --> 01:31:52,759
Speaker 2: to take your side as well. So Mark Willardy from Salaam,

1618
01:31:53,080 --> 01:31:55,920
Speaker 2: glad you're with us tonight. Coming up next, Let's get

1619
01:31:55,960 --> 01:31:59,400
Speaker 2: to d hop because I see it as Hopkins is

1620
01:31:59,800 --> 01:32:03,519
Speaker 2: one entity, the Titans or the other. I think one

1621
01:32:03,560 --> 01:32:06,040
Speaker 2: of them just made a really good decision and the

1622
01:32:06,120 --> 01:32:09,040
Speaker 2: other one did not. We'll get to that here in

1623
01:32:09,120 --> 01:32:13,479
Speaker 2: just a moment on Fox Sports Radio. Okay, this is

1624
01:32:13,600 --> 01:32:18,000
Speaker 2: live in the tire rag dot com studios. That is

1625
01:32:18,080 --> 01:32:20,519
Speaker 2: Ze from Salama, Mark Wheler, Glad you're with us on

1626
01:32:20,560 --> 01:32:27,439
Speaker 2: this Sunday night. So for my money, Ephraim, I think

1627
01:32:27,479 --> 01:32:31,760
Speaker 2: the Tennessee Titans just did a good thing, but I

1628
01:32:31,760 --> 01:32:33,240
Speaker 2: think DeAndre Hopkins did not.

1629
01:32:34,800 --> 01:32:38,960
Speaker 1: You think that's what I think. That's what I think.

1630
01:32:39,080 --> 01:32:43,720
Speaker 2: Like if I'm Tennessee, what I just did was I

1631
01:32:44,040 --> 01:32:48,679
Speaker 2: validated what I did with AJ Brown the year before,

1632
01:32:50,080 --> 01:32:55,679
Speaker 2: because Aj was right that last offseason was such a

1633
01:32:55,720 --> 01:33:00,240
Speaker 2: big boon for wide receiver money. It started with what

1634
01:33:00,320 --> 01:33:03,839
Speaker 2: Tyreek was able to pull off, and then the smaller

1635
01:33:03,880 --> 01:33:08,880
Speaker 2: contracts at the bottom end, not small, but smaller, namely

1636
01:33:08,960 --> 01:33:13,080
Speaker 2: Christian Kirk getting eighteen million dollars just sent an absolute

1637
01:33:13,160 --> 01:33:17,160
Speaker 2: shockwave through the league, and it made every wide receiver

1638
01:33:17,560 --> 01:33:19,720
Speaker 2: who was either a free agent or about to be

1639
01:33:20,120 --> 01:33:26,280
Speaker 2: go oh or really, now, if Christian's eighteen, then I'm

1640
01:33:26,960 --> 01:33:31,280
Speaker 2: and fill in the blank. And AJ got traded. Tyreek

1641
01:33:31,320 --> 01:33:36,880
Speaker 2: got traded DBO got paid. DK got paid, and there

1642
01:33:36,960 --> 01:33:41,600
Speaker 2: was all of this movement going on, and the Titans

1643
01:33:42,920 --> 01:33:45,240
Speaker 2: chose to move on from a great player.

1644
01:33:46,120 --> 01:33:47,719
Speaker 1: They chose to move on for a great player.

1645
01:33:47,720 --> 01:33:49,879
Speaker 2: And that great player is probably in a better situation

1646
01:33:49,920 --> 01:33:50,880
Speaker 2: now because he's got a.

1647
01:33:50,800 --> 01:33:52,280
Speaker 1: Better team and a better quarterback.

1648
01:33:53,320 --> 01:33:57,160
Speaker 2: But now Tennessee goes, well, look what's the fall talent

1649
01:33:57,240 --> 01:34:02,479
Speaker 2: wise from AJ Brown to DeAndre Hopkins? Not that much?

1650
01:34:04,360 --> 01:34:07,680
Speaker 2: I mean, prior to his suspension. Some might argue that

1651
01:34:07,760 --> 01:34:14,720
Speaker 2: they were neck and neck, and so Tennessee, for a

1652
01:34:14,840 --> 01:34:18,400
Speaker 2: lot less money, gets who they think might be the

1653
01:34:18,439 --> 01:34:23,360
Speaker 2: same player. But if I'm DeAndre Ephraim, what am I

1654
01:34:23,439 --> 01:34:26,800
Speaker 2: doing going to the Tannehill dot dot dot? Who knows

1655
01:34:26,800 --> 01:34:28,800
Speaker 2: what else is going on there? It was a money

1656
01:34:28,800 --> 01:34:33,240
Speaker 2: grab situation. It had to be a money grab, I mean,

1657
01:34:34,560 --> 01:34:40,560
Speaker 2: And what world do you choose that path? That's not

1658
01:34:41,479 --> 01:34:49,320
Speaker 2: You didn't go to a quarterback. You went to a team, right, right,

1659
01:34:49,479 --> 01:34:56,320
Speaker 2: So you went to a team not an elite quarterback.

1660
01:34:58,200 --> 01:35:02,519
Speaker 3: Now, granted in that division, they're probably gonna win the division.

1661
01:35:04,520 --> 01:35:08,480
Speaker 2: Eh, Jacksonville no be the favorite?

1662
01:35:08,520 --> 01:35:11,640
Speaker 3: Well, Jacksonville will be the favorite, But Jacksonville has to

1663
01:35:11,640 --> 01:35:13,760
Speaker 3: take those steps to to solidify.

1664
01:35:14,920 --> 01:35:16,360
Speaker 1: Man, you're still on it. Aren't here?

1665
01:35:16,439 --> 01:35:16,720
Speaker 3: You were?

1666
01:35:16,840 --> 01:35:21,400
Speaker 1: You were? You remember our conversations from last year. You

1667
01:35:21,560 --> 01:35:24,080
Speaker 1: disbelieved the man, and you still don't believe that.

1668
01:35:24,439 --> 01:35:27,479
Speaker 4: You gotta prove it. Yeah, you got to prove it.

1669
01:35:27,520 --> 01:35:29,679
Speaker 4: Prove something. They proved something last year.

1670
01:35:31,560 --> 01:35:34,720
Speaker 3: Prove it, man, and and and and everything is great.

1671
01:35:37,479 --> 01:35:38,559
Speaker 3: Proof is in the pudding.

1672
01:35:40,400 --> 01:35:42,240
Speaker 4: Why would you money grab man?

1673
01:35:42,479 --> 01:35:44,960
Speaker 3: I don't know. Hey, Look, we get to a certain

1674
01:35:45,479 --> 01:35:49,479
Speaker 3: you know, point in your career and you may not

1675
01:35:49,560 --> 01:35:53,160
Speaker 3: think only one, only one team can win a NBA

1676
01:35:53,280 --> 01:35:56,599
Speaker 3: champ I mean, excuse me, the NFL championship of Super

1677
01:35:56,640 --> 01:36:06,719
Speaker 3: Bowl only one team. If one of those teams isn't suit,

1678
01:36:07,040 --> 01:36:10,640
Speaker 3: if you're not, if they're not after you, then what

1679
01:36:10,640 --> 01:36:11,040
Speaker 3: do you do?

1680
01:36:12,520 --> 01:36:14,320
Speaker 4: You take the money, You.

1681
01:36:14,400 --> 01:36:17,120
Speaker 2: Take the best money. I get that, but but is

1682
01:36:17,160 --> 01:36:20,000
Speaker 2: that what we believe? None of none of the competing

1683
01:36:20,080 --> 01:36:24,519
Speaker 2: teams were after DeAndre Hopkins. You're still only thirty one

1684
01:36:24,600 --> 01:36:30,920
Speaker 2: years old. He has made one eleven million dollars in

1685
01:36:31,000 --> 01:36:31,960
Speaker 2: his career.

1686
01:36:32,040 --> 01:36:34,599
Speaker 3: But thirty one as a receiver. This is like dog

1687
01:36:34,680 --> 01:36:38,479
Speaker 3: years now. We're talking right. Once you get there's only

1688
01:36:38,520 --> 01:36:41,759
Speaker 3: one two positions that you can be in your thirties

1689
01:36:41,760 --> 01:36:45,960
Speaker 3: and still hold ultimate value. You know those two positions

1690
01:36:46,000 --> 01:36:51,680
Speaker 3: are quarterback, yes, offensive lineman.

1691
01:36:51,360 --> 01:36:51,880
Speaker 4: That is it?

1692
01:36:54,800 --> 01:36:58,920
Speaker 3: Quarterback and offensive lineman. If you're you're just hitting your

1693
01:36:58,960 --> 01:37:06,759
Speaker 3: stride in your thirties. Anything like, once you once defense,

1694
01:37:06,960 --> 01:37:11,400
Speaker 3: you get slower defensive ends, defensive lineman, you get slower cornerbacks,

1695
01:37:11,439 --> 01:37:14,680
Speaker 3: you lose a step. Receivers just not getting out of

1696
01:37:14,680 --> 01:37:17,920
Speaker 3: the break like you right, like so at thirty one

1697
01:37:19,479 --> 01:37:23,400
Speaker 3: that there's not a huge market for a receiver at

1698
01:37:23,400 --> 01:37:27,479
Speaker 3: that price point. I get that, Kristy, he's in his

1699
01:37:27,560 --> 01:37:28,160
Speaker 3: early twenties.

1700
01:37:28,240 --> 01:37:31,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, I hear you. Are you giving up on your

1701
01:37:31,120 --> 01:37:31,679
Speaker 1: next deal?

1702
01:37:31,920 --> 01:37:35,680
Speaker 2: I guess is what I'm saying, because in theory, like

1703
01:37:35,920 --> 01:37:40,240
Speaker 2: whatever numbers you've experienced in Houston and Arizona, that's not

1704
01:37:40,360 --> 01:37:41,280
Speaker 2: happening anymore.

1705
01:37:41,479 --> 01:37:46,360
Speaker 3: No, no, no, no, it's it. Look, say he wants to

1706
01:37:46,360 --> 01:37:52,439
Speaker 3: play two more years, and I'm just speculating this is

1707
01:37:52,520 --> 01:37:54,120
Speaker 3: not from him or I don't know, I don't have

1708
01:37:54,160 --> 01:37:56,519
Speaker 3: any inside school, But say he wants to play two

1709
01:37:56,560 --> 01:37:59,640
Speaker 3: more years, you want to maximize those two years in

1710
01:37:59,720 --> 01:38:09,200
Speaker 3: terms of your earning potential. Sure, if Kansas City, the Bengals, Buffalo,

1711
01:38:10,520 --> 01:38:14,200
Speaker 3: if they aren't offering you enough money to come join

1712
01:38:14,320 --> 01:38:18,160
Speaker 3: that team with the chance to winning the championship. Then

1713
01:38:18,240 --> 01:38:20,280
Speaker 3: you go, you go get the money. Man. Now you

1714
01:38:20,320 --> 01:38:24,080
Speaker 3: stop looking at the quarterback position and you start looking

1715
01:38:24,080 --> 01:38:26,280
Speaker 3: at Oh, okay, well you know Tennessee's dope. I can

1716
01:38:26,360 --> 01:38:28,800
Speaker 3: live in Tennessee for a couple of years. Yeah, right,

1717
01:38:28,920 --> 01:38:29,519
Speaker 3: stuff to do.

1718
01:38:30,479 --> 01:38:35,639
Speaker 2: No, there's no issue, and you know, go get the dough.

1719
01:38:35,680 --> 01:38:38,120
Speaker 2: If this is your last deal, it's your last deal.

1720
01:38:38,800 --> 01:38:41,400
Speaker 1: I just know that you know that.

1721
01:38:41,280 --> 01:38:46,599
Speaker 2: Position is reliant on another position. Yeah, and that other

1722
01:38:46,720 --> 01:38:51,960
Speaker 2: position will feed potentially feed you more money down the

1723
01:38:52,040 --> 01:38:55,880
Speaker 2: road because those numbers you put up, that's what's going

1724
01:38:55,960 --> 01:38:58,479
Speaker 2: to set up what kind of earning potential you have

1725
01:38:58,600 --> 01:38:59,240
Speaker 2: for the next one.

1726
01:38:59,280 --> 01:39:03,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, but the down the road is closer than one

1727
01:39:03,080 --> 01:39:08,479
Speaker 3: might think. The down the road is across the street,

1728
01:39:09,200 --> 01:39:13,599
Speaker 3: not necessarily down the road. So even if he put

1729
01:39:13,680 --> 01:39:18,000
Speaker 3: up great numbers, that age still sits there and it

1730
01:39:18,200 --> 01:39:21,839
Speaker 3: is a real detern. It just happens because the cliff

1731
01:39:21,920 --> 01:39:24,439
Speaker 3: is coming faster and faster, and when you step off

1732
01:39:24,479 --> 01:39:29,200
Speaker 3: that cliff, there's no bringing you back. So I feel you.

1733
01:39:29,439 --> 01:39:33,760
Speaker 2: I mean, aj Green, thirty four years old, that's what

1734
01:39:33,920 --> 01:39:36,680
Speaker 2: that's what about what DeAndre is going to be after this?

1735
01:39:36,840 --> 01:39:40,320
Speaker 3: You see what I'm saying, right, Like, yep, and a

1736
01:39:40,880 --> 01:39:44,800
Speaker 3: Green AJ Green at thirty one was still a dynamic

1737
01:39:44,880 --> 01:39:52,720
Speaker 3: receiver thirty thirty one all of a sudden, And so

1738
01:39:52,920 --> 01:39:56,160
Speaker 3: that is the cautionary tale. So as an athlete, you

1739
01:39:56,280 --> 01:39:59,640
Speaker 3: have to know this. You can't let your ego of

1740
01:39:59,640 --> 01:40:03,080
Speaker 3: what do you think it's going to happen in two years,

1741
01:40:03,120 --> 01:40:06,040
Speaker 3: three years getting a way of making a good decision

1742
01:40:06,080 --> 01:40:09,200
Speaker 3: for you financially and you know, for the remainder of

1743
01:40:09,200 --> 01:40:09,639
Speaker 3: your career.

1744
01:40:10,520 --> 01:40:13,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, I get it, I get it.

1745
01:40:13,320 --> 01:40:17,360
Speaker 2: I just you know, to me running back a little

1746
01:40:17,360 --> 01:40:23,120
Speaker 2: bit more so than receiver, that age thirty is just this, like, yo,

1747
01:40:23,280 --> 01:40:23,720
Speaker 2: that's it.

1748
01:40:24,320 --> 01:40:28,280
Speaker 3: We're done here. Oh it's not even thirty for the

1749
01:40:28,520 --> 01:40:33,760
Speaker 3: running back now it's twenty four, twenty six. It's like

1750
01:40:34,080 --> 01:40:36,760
Speaker 3: I got too much, trade enough tread. We're done.

1751
01:40:37,479 --> 01:40:38,840
Speaker 4: We're done with our two years.

1752
01:40:38,880 --> 01:40:39,880
Speaker 1: Thanks for coming.

1753
01:40:39,840 --> 01:40:43,080
Speaker 3: Right, Because most of the guys if their first round

1754
01:40:43,120 --> 01:40:44,559
Speaker 3: draft pick. I would never want to be a first

1755
01:40:44,640 --> 01:40:48,599
Speaker 3: round draft pick as a running back ever, Nope, never,

1756
01:40:49,479 --> 01:40:54,400
Speaker 3: because that's twenty two to twenty.

1757
01:40:54,439 --> 01:40:56,160
Speaker 4: Seven, twenty seven.

1758
01:40:57,240 --> 01:40:59,960
Speaker 3: Good luck after that. And then when it's kind of

1759
01:41:00,080 --> 01:41:03,400
Speaker 3: track time. Nope. I would never want to be a

1760
01:41:03,400 --> 01:41:06,400
Speaker 3: first run draft me in the third round, homie.

1761
01:41:06,640 --> 01:41:09,439
Speaker 2: Unless you crush it. Now, you know, let's not act

1762
01:41:09,520 --> 01:41:10,400
Speaker 2: like some of those guys.

1763
01:41:10,439 --> 01:41:12,320
Speaker 3: I mean, Barkley's crushing it.

1764
01:41:12,880 --> 01:41:16,880
Speaker 2: He crushed it. But McCaffrey got his deal. Zeke got

1765
01:41:16,880 --> 01:41:18,599
Speaker 2: his deal. They got that.

1766
01:41:18,920 --> 01:41:22,880
Speaker 3: That was those were That was years ago, though not

1767
01:41:22,960 --> 01:41:28,000
Speaker 3: that long ago Zeke steal. Now McCaffrey is a receiver

1768
01:41:28,080 --> 01:41:31,240
Speaker 3: as well. We're not just talking about like he he

1769
01:41:31,240 --> 01:41:35,080
Speaker 3: he's that that breed, that that that different, that difference maker.

1770
01:41:35,240 --> 01:41:35,679
Speaker 4: Correct.

1771
01:41:36,120 --> 01:41:39,000
Speaker 3: So he fits in the vein of what a Marshall

1772
01:41:39,280 --> 01:41:44,040
Speaker 3: was and what uh uh you know Ricky Waters Like

1773
01:41:44,200 --> 01:41:47,439
Speaker 3: these type of hybrid backs, they could do everything and anything,

1774
01:41:47,720 --> 01:41:50,240
Speaker 3: so you can put them in different matchup situations and

1775
01:41:50,280 --> 01:41:50,680
Speaker 3: all of that.

1776
01:41:51,640 --> 01:41:53,160
Speaker 4: But Zeke was not that.

1777
01:41:53,520 --> 01:41:55,920
Speaker 3: And Zeke held out with two years remaining on his

1778
01:41:56,000 --> 01:41:59,720
Speaker 3: deal to get that bag and never again lived up

1779
01:41:59,760 --> 01:42:02,879
Speaker 3: to that. That's a cautionary tale for all running backs.

1780
01:42:03,439 --> 01:42:05,320
Speaker 1: Well, it's over and over and over again.

1781
01:42:05,400 --> 01:42:07,120
Speaker 2: We don't even need to just go to Zeke, right,

1782
01:42:07,160 --> 01:42:09,600
Speaker 2: He signed a six year, ninety million dollar deal in

1783
01:42:09,640 --> 01:42:13,160
Speaker 2: twenty nineteen and obviously did not get to the end

1784
01:42:13,200 --> 01:42:16,120
Speaker 2: of the six years and I will blow everybody away

1785
01:42:16,280 --> 01:42:18,760
Speaker 2: with this factor. You know how old Zeke Elliott is

1786
01:42:18,840 --> 01:42:19,240
Speaker 2: right now?

1787
01:42:20,040 --> 01:42:21,040
Speaker 3: How old?

1788
01:42:21,560 --> 01:42:22,360
Speaker 1: How old do you think he is?

1789
01:42:22,360 --> 01:42:25,160
Speaker 3: You gotta be twenty six, twenty seven.

1790
01:42:26,320 --> 01:42:29,280
Speaker 2: I'm shocked that you nailed it. He's twenty seven. Don't

1791
01:42:29,320 --> 01:42:31,679
Speaker 2: you think the public views him as thirty three?

1792
01:42:32,160 --> 01:42:33,040
Speaker 1: Doesn't it feel?

1793
01:42:33,439 --> 01:42:37,200
Speaker 2: It feels like he is going he is twenty seven

1794
01:42:37,560 --> 01:42:38,400
Speaker 2: seven years old.

1795
01:42:38,840 --> 01:42:40,479
Speaker 1: Not granted he'll turn twenty eight next week.

1796
01:42:40,920 --> 01:42:44,800
Speaker 3: Is a little but twenty eight. That's a young man.

1797
01:42:45,560 --> 01:42:52,599
Speaker 3: That's a young man. He can't get you four yards, he.

1798
01:42:52,479 --> 01:42:54,360
Speaker 1: Can if you're at the three yard line.

1799
01:42:55,520 --> 01:42:56,120
Speaker 4: True.

1800
01:42:56,200 --> 01:42:59,080
Speaker 1: A lot of touchdowns last year? It a lot.

1801
01:43:00,320 --> 01:43:02,320
Speaker 3: Do you know who else had a lot of touchdowns

1802
01:43:03,439 --> 01:43:09,160
Speaker 3: consistently scoring? I do you want to talk about first

1803
01:43:09,200 --> 01:43:14,520
Speaker 3: in goal? We're handing the ball off to the touchdown

1804
01:43:14,560 --> 01:43:18,760
Speaker 3: machine and that's one Steven tm de saga and.

1805
01:43:19,000 --> 01:43:21,479
Speaker 4: Off to jump into the salvation army bell for the

1806
01:43:21,479 --> 01:43:25,120
Speaker 4: holidays as we step right through. What were we talking about?

1807
01:43:25,120 --> 01:43:28,679
Speaker 4: In baseball? Last hour? The Angels are chasing the Houston

1808
01:43:28,760 --> 01:43:32,360
Speaker 4: Astros for the final wildcard spot in the American League.

1809
01:43:32,960 --> 01:43:36,360
Speaker 4: Houston in Anaheim has just homered in the eighth and

1810
01:43:36,520 --> 01:43:39,719
Speaker 4: homered twice in the ninth to take a nine to

1811
01:43:39,760 --> 01:43:42,719
Speaker 4: seven lead over The Angels are going to the body.

1812
01:43:43,520 --> 01:43:47,960
Speaker 1: That's it. That's last trade him, he's leaving. They've been

1813
01:43:48,000 --> 01:43:48,599
Speaker 1: ahead this.

1814
01:43:48,600 --> 01:43:50,320
Speaker 3: Whole day, yep.

1815
01:43:50,760 --> 01:43:53,320
Speaker 4: And they had a six game losing streak going into

1816
01:43:53,439 --> 01:43:55,679
Speaker 4: last night when they won a crazy game in ten.

1817
01:43:56,280 --> 01:43:58,519
Speaker 4: Hear they're trailing bottom of the ninth. This would put

1818
01:43:58,560 --> 01:44:02,080
Speaker 4: the Halos six game back of Houston. And it feels

1819
01:44:02,120 --> 01:44:04,160
Speaker 4: like the Angels have only won one or two games

1820
01:44:04,160 --> 01:44:06,639
Speaker 4: in the last couple of weeks. They have really really

1821
01:44:06,720 --> 01:44:09,840
Speaker 4: gone in the tank here. By mid July, twelve inning

1822
01:44:09,880 --> 01:44:13,000
Speaker 4: win for Philadelphia over the Padres seven to six. Padres

1823
01:44:13,040 --> 01:44:16,320
Speaker 4: record forty four and fifty on the field of Padres

1824
01:44:16,360 --> 01:44:19,360
Speaker 4: with runners in scoring position. Today we're two for sixteen,

1825
01:44:19,479 --> 01:44:21,840
Speaker 4: and yesterday the Padres got swept in a double header

1826
01:44:21,880 --> 01:44:24,799
Speaker 4: at Philadelphia, the Mets in ten innings edge the Dodgers

1827
01:44:24,800 --> 01:44:26,280
Speaker 4: two to one. There was a rain delay at the

1828
01:44:26,320 --> 01:44:29,639
Speaker 4: start of nearly four hours. San Francisco won its fifth

1829
01:44:29,680 --> 01:44:32,240
Speaker 4: straight game, a ten inning win at Pittsburgh eight to four,

1830
01:44:32,320 --> 01:44:34,200
Speaker 4: So the Giants just a game and a half back

1831
01:44:34,240 --> 01:44:37,160
Speaker 4: of La in the NL West. Now San Francisco will

1832
01:44:37,160 --> 01:44:40,160
Speaker 4: play at slumping Cincinnati, which has lost four in a row.

1833
01:44:40,400 --> 01:44:43,080
Speaker 4: Red's now two games back at first place Milwaukee in

1834
01:44:43,120 --> 01:44:45,880
Speaker 4: the Central Milwaukee won at Cincinnati again four to three

1835
01:44:45,960 --> 01:44:48,880
Speaker 4: today with two runs in the top of the eighth. Colorado,

1836
01:44:48,960 --> 01:44:51,200
Speaker 4: with two homers in the bottom of the eleventh, beat

1837
01:44:51,200 --> 01:44:53,840
Speaker 4: the Yankees eight to seven, and CJ. Crohne hit a

1838
01:44:53,840 --> 01:44:56,800
Speaker 4: grand slam bottom of the eighth at corps Field, Toronto

1839
01:44:56,800 --> 01:44:59,840
Speaker 4: over Arizona seven to five. Diamondbacks have lost four st

1840
01:45:00,520 --> 01:45:03,160
Speaker 4: Seattle a two nothing winner against Detroit. Time of the

1841
01:45:03,160 --> 01:45:07,120
Speaker 4: game two hours eleven minutes. Baltimore won its eight straight game,

1842
01:45:07,240 --> 01:45:10,200
Speaker 4: five to four over Miami, and Luisa Riaz of the

1843
01:45:10,200 --> 01:45:13,280
Speaker 4: Marlins winzero for five. He is betting three eighty now.

1844
01:45:13,680 --> 01:45:16,839
Speaker 4: Kansas City won against Tampa Bay eight to four yesterday.

1845
01:45:16,920 --> 01:45:19,920
Speaker 4: The Royals got swept in a doubleheader. It's news because

1846
01:45:19,960 --> 01:45:22,599
Speaker 4: Kansas City's record, even with the victory, is twenty seven

1847
01:45:22,640 --> 01:45:26,720
Speaker 4: and sixty seven and catcher Salvador Perez has a strained hamstring.

1848
01:45:26,840 --> 01:45:29,559
Speaker 4: But if you want bad records, there's Oakland. They've lost

1849
01:45:29,600 --> 01:45:31,920
Speaker 4: seven in a row now lost at home to Minnesota

1850
01:45:31,960 --> 01:45:34,280
Speaker 4: five to four. We mentioned last hour. The a's record

1851
01:45:34,360 --> 01:45:38,120
Speaker 4: is twenty five and seventy. Attendance today was nine thousand

1852
01:45:38,120 --> 01:45:41,599
Speaker 4: and three thirty five. They've just finished the Gold Cup

1855
01:45:48,800 --> 01:45:51,439
Speaker 4: on a goal in the eighty eighth minute. NASCAR's race

1856
01:45:51,560 --> 01:45:54,520
Speaker 4: was postponed to tomorrow due to bad weather in New Hampshire.

1857
01:45:54,760 --> 01:45:58,080
Speaker 4: The Tennessee Titans are expected to sign wide receiver DeAndre

1858
01:45:58,240 --> 01:46:01,360
Speaker 4: Hopkins to a two year deal. The Jaguars gave tight

1859
01:46:01,439 --> 01:46:04,639
Speaker 4: end Evan Ingram a three year contract where twenty four

1860
01:46:04,720 --> 01:46:08,439
Speaker 4: mili in guarantees. Rory McElroy took the Scottish Open by

1861
01:46:08,560 --> 01:46:11,960

01:46:12,000 --> 01:46:14,839
Speaker 4: Lake dah after making an eagle pot on the eighteenth

1863
01:46:14,920 --> 01:46:19,120
Speaker 4: holl Carlos Alcarez won the Wimbledon Final over Novak Djokovic

1864
01:46:19,240 --> 01:46:22,759
Speaker 4: in five great sets sixty four. In the fifth Ladies

1865
01:46:22,760 --> 01:46:26,640
Speaker 4: and Gentlemen Show, Hey Otani is just homey bottom of

1866
01:46:26,720 --> 01:46:31,760
Speaker 4: the ninth inning yard. It is Houston nine angels eight

1867
01:46:31,960 --> 01:46:35,360
Speaker 4: good Your Tani home run estimated to go over four

1868
01:46:35,439 --> 01:46:40,439
Speaker 4: hundred and ten feet. Not over yet, of course, because

1869
01:46:40,800 --> 01:46:44,879
Speaker 4: actually he's batting three hundred. He's hit thirty four home runs.

1870
01:46:44,920 --> 01:46:48,280
Speaker 4: He leads the majors. This is seventy three RBIs already

1871
01:46:48,320 --> 01:46:49,280
Speaker 4: and they could still lose.

1872
01:46:50,040 --> 01:46:54,840
Speaker 2: It's perfect Otani Homer's in the Knights to lose by one,

1873
01:46:55,040 --> 01:47:00,679
Speaker 2: nine to eight. It's perfect, exactly the story. In fact,

1874
01:47:00,840 --> 01:47:04,080
Speaker 2: what'd you say earlier, Steve? It seems like the Angels

1875
01:47:04,120 --> 01:47:05,559
Speaker 2: have not won in how many weeks?

1876
01:47:05,640 --> 01:47:08,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, it seems like literally one or two games in

1877
01:47:08,200 --> 01:47:09,320
Speaker 4: the last two weeks.

1878
01:47:09,920 --> 01:47:13,960
Speaker 2: They have won twice since June twenty seventh.

1879
01:47:15,360 --> 01:47:18,280
Speaker 4: It's July sixteenth. They needed him to close.

1880
01:47:18,320 --> 01:47:20,920
Speaker 1: They've won two baseball.

1881
01:47:20,400 --> 01:47:26,680
Speaker 2: Games since then, and the trade granted they did take

1882
01:47:26,680 --> 01:47:28,080
Speaker 2: a half a week off for the all start.

1883
01:47:29,000 --> 01:47:30,880
Speaker 4: You know how many l's would they have pile up? Then,

1884
01:47:30,960 --> 01:47:31,719
Speaker 4: let's be honest.

1885
01:47:32,080 --> 01:47:34,400
Speaker 1: Four four is the answer to your question.

1886
01:47:35,160 --> 01:47:37,479
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, he hit the ball out and they're

1887
01:47:37,479 --> 01:47:38,679
Speaker 2: gonna lose nine to eight.

1888
01:47:39,560 --> 01:47:42,559
Speaker 3: Well, hold on, it's one out, got one. I want

1889
01:47:42,680 --> 01:47:46,559
Speaker 3: one on. I know, Taylor Warden, I'm.

1890
01:47:46,400 --> 01:47:48,479
Speaker 1: Watching, I'm watching.

1891
01:47:51,840 --> 01:47:55,080
Speaker 2: They gave up a four spot in the ninth after

1892
01:47:55,200 --> 01:47:57,200
Speaker 2: two and the seventh, two in the eighth, and four

1893
01:47:57,200 --> 01:47:57,719
Speaker 2: in the ninth.

1894
01:47:58,400 --> 01:48:00,439
Speaker 4: The good news for the Angels is the closer was

1895
01:48:00,479 --> 01:48:03,880
Speaker 4: already used last night, overused when he gagged the game,

1896
01:48:03,920 --> 01:48:06,800
Speaker 4: and not available I'm sure this evening. So they're going

1897
01:48:06,800 --> 01:48:09,080
Speaker 4: out against someone else in the bottom of the ninth tonight.

1898
01:48:09,840 --> 01:48:13,040
Speaker 2: So in other words, they've got something that they got

1899
01:48:13,120 --> 01:48:14,040
Speaker 2: an excuse.

1900
01:48:13,680 --> 01:48:20,240
Speaker 4: They're saying there's a chance. Yeah, good for them, good grief.

1901
01:48:21,120 --> 01:48:28,400
Speaker 2: I mean, it's just exactly how you'd guess the story

1902
01:48:28,439 --> 01:48:36,320
Speaker 2: would go, isn't it. Three weeks ago we sat here

1903
01:48:36,360 --> 01:48:40,559
Speaker 2: and went, well, the whole Otani at the deadline thing

1904
01:48:40,840 --> 01:48:44,000
Speaker 2: is probably a moot point because the Angels are like

1905
01:48:44,360 --> 01:48:48,000
Speaker 2: ten games over five hundred, so why would they do that?

1906
01:48:49,120 --> 01:48:51,760
Speaker 2: And the second they got to late June, they're just like,

1907
01:48:52,320 --> 01:48:57,240
Speaker 2: that's about enough of all that winning, that's.

1908
01:48:57,000 --> 01:48:57,960
Speaker 1: About enough of that.

1909
01:49:00,640 --> 01:49:01,120
Speaker 4: And so.

1910
01:49:03,800 --> 01:49:05,800
Speaker 3: Gut yeah, no.

1911
01:49:06,439 --> 01:49:10,400
Speaker 2: Uh so they're now a game under five hundred there

1912
01:49:10,439 --> 01:49:14,360
Speaker 2: now away from being two games under five hundred, and

1913
01:49:14,720 --> 01:49:17,479
Speaker 2: I think we've reached the point now where people if

1914
01:49:17,520 --> 01:49:19,880
Speaker 2: they don't trade them, they're gonna be like, what are

1915
01:49:19,880 --> 01:49:21,559
Speaker 2: you doing them?

1916
01:49:21,560 --> 01:49:21,760
Speaker 3: Now?

1917
01:49:24,320 --> 01:49:27,680
Speaker 2: You have to, which is just it's so devastating for

1918
01:49:27,800 --> 01:49:30,840
Speaker 2: Angels fans. Is there anything more embarrassing than that as

1919
01:49:30,880 --> 01:49:36,559
Speaker 2: a sports fan when your team is like, so, we're

1920
01:49:36,560 --> 01:49:39,880
Speaker 2: going to give up on the greatest thing that's ever

1921
01:49:39,960 --> 01:49:44,720
Speaker 2: happened to our sport because we can't win a game

1922
01:49:44,760 --> 01:49:47,240
Speaker 2: with him, and we don't even really give ourselves a

1923
01:49:47,360 --> 01:49:48,040
Speaker 2: chance to keep.

1924
01:49:47,920 --> 01:49:52,200
Speaker 3: Them, and we can't keep them, we can't keep them.

1925
01:49:52,280 --> 01:49:53,760
Speaker 1: Well, but they're saying that they can.

1926
01:49:54,160 --> 01:49:54,599
Speaker 4: They can't.

1927
01:49:54,840 --> 01:49:57,559
Speaker 3: We know that they were. Of course they're saying they can't.

1928
01:49:59,439 --> 01:49:59,760
Speaker 4: They know.

1929
01:50:00,040 --> 01:50:03,120
Speaker 2: I don't know what we know. I don't know what

1930
01:50:03,160 --> 01:50:07,720
Speaker 2: we know with show. Hey, I really don't. I do

1931
01:50:07,800 --> 01:50:12,559
Speaker 2: think that this is a unique situation. Show Hey, I'm

1932
01:50:12,600 --> 01:50:16,200
Speaker 2: out of here, no show. Hey, the money, I get it,

1933
01:50:17,160 --> 01:50:21,280
Speaker 2: I get it. I realized it's not like he's not human.

1934
01:50:22,720 --> 01:50:26,360
Speaker 2: But everything that we think we know about a normal

1935
01:50:26,400 --> 01:50:29,280
Speaker 2: free agency, I don't think it applies in the same

1936
01:50:29,320 --> 01:50:30,680
Speaker 2: way here.

1937
01:50:31,400 --> 01:50:35,000
Speaker 1: What I'm saying, yeah, you know what I mean.

1938
01:50:35,120 --> 01:50:39,200
Speaker 2: Like people get excited about stuff I did when the

1939
01:50:39,240 --> 01:50:44,320
Speaker 2: Giants recording Aaron Judge, but people behind the scenes are like, you.

1940
01:50:44,320 --> 01:50:50,799
Speaker 1: Don't leave the Yankees in free agency. You don't do that, right.

1941
01:50:52,520 --> 01:50:53,720
Speaker 3: You? Yeah?

1942
01:50:53,800 --> 01:50:56,519
Speaker 2: Yeah, Trey Turner's not staying on the West Coast. He

1943
01:50:56,520 --> 01:50:59,360
Speaker 2: doesn't want to be here. Okay, he didn't we knew this.

1944
01:51:00,080 --> 01:51:03,200
Speaker 2: What do we know about this guy? Fella picked the

1945
01:51:03,240 --> 01:51:07,280
Speaker 2: Angels out of a hat, came over from another country

1946
01:51:07,320 --> 01:51:11,320
Speaker 2: and was like, yeah, Anaheim, that's where I'm going.

1947
01:51:11,360 --> 01:51:15,280
Speaker 3: Disneyland. Man, I'm telling you, it's the Disneyland effect land.

1948
01:51:16,160 --> 01:51:21,679
Speaker 3: That's a huge draw, Disneyland on Dog down the street

1949
01:51:21,680 --> 01:51:22,400
Speaker 3: from Disneyland.

1950
01:51:23,320 --> 01:51:26,200
Speaker 1: This guy is not like you know what, Home Runs

1951
01:51:26,280 --> 01:51:32,320
Speaker 1: and the cars racers, very exciting, radiator springs, one two punch,

1952
01:51:33,880 --> 01:51:37,360
Speaker 1: Come on, man, that's what he picked.

1953
01:51:39,040 --> 01:51:41,920
Speaker 3: Yep, why would he do that? Now he's picking somewhere else.

1954
01:51:43,240 --> 01:51:49,400
Speaker 2: Probably I think so too. I'm just I'm mindful that

1955
01:51:50,880 --> 01:51:52,600
Speaker 2: we don't know what we don't know.

1956
01:51:55,240 --> 01:52:01,479
Speaker 3: With this one. Whatever it is, it's gonna be interesting

1957
01:52:01,520 --> 01:52:07,000
Speaker 3: and fun to watch. Remember when everybody thought Kobe was

1958
01:52:07,040 --> 01:52:10,400
Speaker 3: going to the Clippers. Nobody thought that. Nobody thought that,

1959
01:52:10,439 --> 01:52:15,080
Speaker 3: I don't know who the Clippers did. That's ridiculous. I know,

1960
01:52:15,240 --> 01:52:20,040
Speaker 3: for a on the planet Earth thought that was about

1961
01:52:20,080 --> 01:52:22,680
Speaker 3: to Oh we got action? Oh did he get the

1962
01:52:22,800 --> 01:52:29,920
Speaker 3: dollar he got there? Wow? What a tremendous catch? Whoa

01:52:32,360 --> 01:52:34,800
Speaker 3: that ball game. That was game too, ball game.

1964
01:52:36,080 --> 01:52:39,479
Speaker 1: Oh Mike, he God, did you call bag?

1965
01:52:39,920 --> 01:52:44,480
Speaker 3: He called game game blouses, he called game.

1981
01:53:45,680 --> 01:53:47,479
Speaker 3: I mean it man that game tonight.

1982
01:53:48,400 --> 01:53:51,519
Speaker 2: The Kyle Tucker grabbed to end it Otani's home run

1983
01:53:51,680 --> 01:53:55,120
Speaker 2: earlier in the night. He hit an absolute seed home

1984
01:53:55,240 --> 01:53:58,280
Speaker 2: run distance. It was fouled by about three feet. The

1985
01:53:58,400 --> 01:54:01,639
Speaker 2: guy is an absolute sh and if there is any

1986
01:54:01,840 --> 01:54:06,040
Speaker 2: game so far this year that sort of captures the

1987
01:54:06,320 --> 01:54:09,960
Speaker 2: essence of what's going on with Otani and the Angels.

1988
01:54:10,400 --> 01:54:13,759
Speaker 2: It's this game tonight. They get a bunch of run production.

1989
01:54:14,320 --> 01:54:19,080
Speaker 2: He homers, he does it late. There's dramatic play from

1990
01:54:19,200 --> 01:54:23,360
Speaker 2: both sides until the end, and the Astros win nine

1991
01:54:23,760 --> 01:54:28,200
Speaker 2: to eight. Fascinating. Man. The Angels, you know, we talked

1992
01:54:28,240 --> 01:54:30,639
Speaker 2: earlier about how this they always seem to be paying

1993
01:54:30,760 --> 01:54:33,840
Speaker 2: somebody who's not given him any goods. They have got

1994
01:54:34,200 --> 01:54:38,240
Speaker 2: great offensive players seemingly all the time. I don't know

1995
01:54:38,520 --> 01:54:44,160
Speaker 2: why they've never in the last like twenty years since

1996
01:54:44,200 --> 01:54:47,800
Speaker 2: their World Series win, they cannot get a pitcher.

1997
01:54:50,080 --> 01:54:53,720
Speaker 1: This is one pitcher to come out and just be

1998
01:54:53,840 --> 01:54:54,320
Speaker 1: a dude.

1999
01:54:57,800 --> 01:55:03,600
Speaker 3: Yea Jay, It's it's frustrating. It's frustrating to watch my

2000
01:55:03,760 --> 01:55:08,400
Speaker 3: wife's family there die hard Angel fans I'm talking about.

2001
01:55:08,560 --> 01:55:13,920
Speaker 3: They have angel tattoos. That's how die hard. Well, yeah, I.

2002
01:55:13,920 --> 01:55:16,480
Speaker 2: Didn't even know that that was a thing. Where's the

2003
01:55:16,880 --> 01:55:19,400
Speaker 2: tattoo artist that puts on an angel tattoo? Man, I'm

2004
01:55:19,440 --> 01:55:20,960
Speaker 2: just letting you know, I don't even know they did that.

2005
01:55:21,360 --> 01:55:24,280
Speaker 2: This is what's happening show. That's an artist. They're like,

2006
01:55:24,320 --> 01:55:24,560
Speaker 2: what's that?

2007
01:55:25,440 --> 01:55:25,560
Speaker 5: Uh?

2008
01:55:25,800 --> 01:55:33,640
Speaker 3: And I was like, they're frustrated, They're extremely frustrated, and uh,

2009
01:55:33,880 --> 01:55:36,200
Speaker 3: you we can't even talk about the show. Hey, situation

2010
01:55:36,440 --> 01:55:38,960
Speaker 3: are you know? It doesn't go over.

2011
01:55:38,840 --> 01:55:40,720
Speaker 1: It's emotional, That's what I mean.

2012
01:55:40,920 --> 01:55:46,880
Speaker 2: Like, I can't think what's the comp and I acknowledge

2013
01:55:46,920 --> 01:55:49,840
Speaker 2: there isn't one, because we've never seen anything like this

2014
01:55:50,920 --> 01:55:56,280
Speaker 2: in uh, in the history of baseball. But like, what

2015
01:55:56,840 --> 01:56:00,920
Speaker 2: if we got to like November and the Chiefs were

2016
01:56:00,960 --> 01:56:03,480
Speaker 2: struggling and they're just like, yeah, I think we're.

2017
01:56:03,360 --> 01:56:04,480
Speaker 3: Gonna trade Mahomes.

2018
01:56:07,440 --> 01:56:10,240
Speaker 2: You know, we're not going anywhere this year. Oh my gods,

2019
01:56:10,480 --> 01:56:15,720
Speaker 2: get some draft picks. Can you imagine if what's about

2020
01:56:15,800 --> 01:56:19,920
Speaker 2: to potentially happen with the Angels happened in another sport,

2021
01:56:20,920 --> 01:56:21,760
Speaker 2: people would.

2022
01:56:21,600 --> 01:56:27,120
Speaker 3: Pick it you he'd be out of control. How about

2023
01:56:27,240 --> 01:56:40,320
Speaker 3: when Indianapolis traded Marshall Folk, Yeah, it's right, what how

2024
01:56:40,960 --> 01:56:42,760
Speaker 3: he was seventy of the offense?

2025
01:56:44,320 --> 01:56:45,160
Speaker 1: Why would you do that?

2026
01:56:46,120 --> 01:56:46,320
Speaker 4: Well?

2027
01:56:46,400 --> 01:56:48,360
Speaker 3: And it ended up it ended up with egg on

2028
01:56:48,440 --> 01:56:48,840
Speaker 3: their face.

2029
01:56:48,920 --> 01:56:52,480
Speaker 2: But you know, usually those kinds of trades, uh, maybe

2030
01:56:52,520 --> 01:56:55,440
Speaker 2: not usually, but often, you know, like the Ricky Williams trade,

2031
01:56:55,480 --> 01:56:59,080
Speaker 2: the famous one, herschel Walker trades things like that, Like,

2032
01:56:59,400 --> 01:57:04,560
Speaker 2: usually it's pretty hard, especially in football, for one player to.

2033
01:57:04,680 --> 01:57:08,440
Speaker 4: Really equal all of that kind of capital.

2034
01:57:08,760 --> 01:57:12,400
Speaker 2: And even last year, you know the Chiefs for the

2035
01:57:12,480 --> 01:57:14,720
Speaker 2: first half of the year, it's like, dude, why did

2036
01:57:14,800 --> 01:57:18,440
Speaker 2: you trade Tyreek Hill? And then they won the Super Bowl?

2037
01:57:19,880 --> 01:57:23,280
Speaker 2: And what they get five picks or something for him? Yeah,

2038
01:57:24,400 --> 01:57:29,480
Speaker 2: so like right, So it's often the right thing to do.

2039
01:57:29,800 --> 01:57:32,520
Speaker 2: But to me, there's a line in sports when a

2040
01:57:32,640 --> 01:57:40,040
Speaker 2: player becomes iconic, when he becomes transcendent, where you're like

2041
01:57:40,360 --> 01:57:41,640
Speaker 2: the emotional toll.

2042
01:57:41,840 --> 01:57:45,000
Speaker 1: It's I don't even care what you get back. An

2043
01:57:45,080 --> 01:57:46,720
Speaker 1: angel fan is not three.

2044
01:57:46,600 --> 01:57:49,280
Speaker 2: Years from now, they have a really good player out

2045
01:57:49,280 --> 01:57:51,000
Speaker 2: of this trade, and they're like, well, now that made

2046
01:57:51,040 --> 01:57:57,400
Speaker 2: it worth it. No, that's so tani that trading Mahomes

2047
01:57:58,160 --> 01:58:02,080
Speaker 2: or Giannis or have the trades.

2048
01:58:02,200 --> 01:58:07,560
Speaker 1: It is a tradable people, but they probably don't.

2049
01:58:07,440 --> 01:58:14,560
Speaker 3: Have a choice. They have to They got to get something.

2050
01:58:15,560 --> 01:58:21,120
Speaker 2: Well it's you know, it's defeatist, but you're right, it's defeatist,

2051
01:58:22,800 --> 01:58:23,280
Speaker 2: but you're right.

2052
01:58:23,440 --> 01:58:26,200
Speaker 3: They gotta get something or they'll have the egg on

2053
01:58:26,280 --> 01:58:27,000
Speaker 3: their face.

2054
01:58:27,400 --> 01:58:31,480
Speaker 2: No doubt, no doubt, you know, I mean, they can

2055
01:58:32,400 --> 01:58:35,000
Speaker 2: take their fans on a ride and act like there's hope.

2056
01:58:36,840 --> 01:58:40,760
Speaker 2: But even though I acknowledge I got no idea what

2057
01:58:40,920 --> 01:58:43,600
Speaker 2: show hey wants, what makes him tick, and he made

2058
01:58:43,600 --> 01:58:46,720
Speaker 2: a weird decision the first time I acknowledge all that.

2059
01:58:47,080 --> 01:58:49,720
Speaker 2: The only you mentioned it. The only thing we know

2060
01:58:50,160 --> 01:58:52,520
Speaker 2: is the one thing the Angels have proven they can't do.

2061
01:58:54,040 --> 01:58:56,400
Speaker 2: We know he wants to win, and they have proven

2062
01:58:56,480 --> 01:58:57,240
Speaker 2: that they can't do it.

2063
01:59:02,360 --> 01:59:08,680
Speaker 3: Gotta break up, Gotta break up even though you don't

2064
01:59:08,680 --> 01:59:11,680
Speaker 3: want to. That's where we started. That's where we started.

2065
01:59:11,880 --> 01:59:15,400
Speaker 3: Sometimes we're better apart.

2066
01:59:17,360 --> 01:59:19,440
Speaker 2: It was probably that you were probably better that you

2067
01:59:19,520 --> 01:59:21,720
Speaker 2: were apart from your family for the last three hours

2068
01:59:21,760 --> 01:59:24,440
Speaker 2: while they were arguing about their all time starting five.

2069
01:59:24,640 --> 01:59:27,240
Speaker 3: So won, Eli got on that?

2070
01:59:28,680 --> 01:59:30,440
