And what day is it today? 20 00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:56,520 Speaker 5: And do we have a game or off day today? 21 00:00:56,760 --> 00:00:58,200 Speaker 6: And do I have to take a flight on my 22 00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:00,600 Speaker 6: own to go do something else tomorrow while I'm away 23 00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:04,959 Speaker 6: from the team. That has happened many times on several 24 00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:07,280 Speaker 6: occasions on a consistent basis, And. 25 00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:08,319 Speaker 3: Then you figure out what's sporting? 26 00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:09,560 Speaker 5: Yeah, and then you figure out. 27 00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:11,600 Speaker 6: It's like, all right, well it's you're in Phoenix today, 28 00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:14,160 Speaker 6: you're doing this. We got basketball tonight. 29 00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:15,120 Speaker 5: Cool, got it. 30 00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:19,039 Speaker 1: But figuring out geography is the most important thing first. 31 00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:19,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, just a bit. 32 00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:21,840 Speaker 6: Just have a general sense of place, I think is 33 00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:24,240 Speaker 6: a good establishing factor for what you're doing that day. 34 00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:26,279 Speaker 4: Taylor has an idea. 35 00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:28,080 Speaker 1: I want to get to this because I was shocked 36 00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:31,039 Speaker 1: to hear it before. The fact that you dj after 37 00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:34,919 Speaker 1: calling games is the most shocking thing I've ever heard. 38 00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:38,080 Speaker 5: Of my entire shocking. Yeah, I get god, what is 39 00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:38,640 Speaker 5: this guy do? 40 00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:41,320 Speaker 3: How does that look like? After a game? 41 00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:45,560 Speaker 4: You then go terrible, I mean. 42 00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:47,000 Speaker 3: And go to a club and start DJing there. 43 00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:51,600 Speaker 6: So last year I was doing a Cubs Phillies game 44 00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:54,200 Speaker 6: in Chicago and April and it was like a three 45 00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:56,480 Speaker 6: o'clock game. It was like an afternoon game, and a 46 00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:58,960 Speaker 6: friend of mine, like I've been I started DJing when 47 00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:01,160 Speaker 6: I was thirteen. My brother bought me like turntables, like 48 00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:03,920 Speaker 6: real turntables. I went to record shops, I bought records, 49 00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:07,560 Speaker 6: and then CDs came into play and you had to 50 00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:08,200 Speaker 6: burn your own. 51 00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:09,240 Speaker 5: CDs and things like that. 52 00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:12,160 Speaker 6: So that's a major major factor when you didn't have 53 00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:14,720 Speaker 6: to spend, you know, twelve bucks per record every time 54 00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:16,560 Speaker 6: you wanted to get a new piece of music. So 55 00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:20,880 Speaker 6: I started DJing from the time I was thirteen until 56 00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:23,800 Speaker 6: probably I was twenty three. I was working in Iowa 57 00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:26,040 Speaker 6: my first job, and I even did it there, and 58 00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:28,480 Speaker 6: then when I got hired by ESPN I was twenty four, 59 00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:31,400 Speaker 6: I just stopped doing it. So then, you know, ten 60 00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:34,480 Speaker 6: eleven years later, I was kind of feeling some creative stagnancy, 61 00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:36,440 Speaker 6: so I think I would let me go figure out 62 00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:38,680 Speaker 6: what the equipment is like these days and how you. 63 00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:40,040 Speaker 5: Set it up. So a few years ago I started 64 00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:40,799 Speaker 5: DJing again. 65 00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:43,280 Speaker 6: And I live in Chicago. It's the house music capital 66 00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:45,920 Speaker 6: of the world. There's a million DJs. Everybody and their 67 00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:48,320 Speaker 6: boyfriend is a DJ in Chicago, so you know, it's 68 00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:50,560 Speaker 6: a crowded market. But I knew some people, and I 69 00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 6: had some friends, and I just wanted to do it 70 00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:54,880 Speaker 6: a little bit, so I started doing it again. And 71 00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:58,799 Speaker 6: there's been occasions where I'll call a Cubs game in 72 00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:01,400 Speaker 6: Chicago or a Bears game for a Bulls game, and 73 00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:04,239 Speaker 6: after the game, I'll race over to a club and 74 00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:06,320 Speaker 6: play like, can. 75 00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:06,680 Speaker 3: We be friends? 76 00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:09,200 Speaker 2: Can I just be like your assistant and we just 77 00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:10,320 Speaker 2: go everywhere because. 78 00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:12,720 Speaker 4: I kill Yeah, but I want to go to bed. 79 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:15,720 Speaker 4: I don't want to be as assistant.

I try to avoid 86 00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:28,960 Speaker 2: the chaos. 87 00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:30,079 Speaker 5: Well, here's the thing. 88 00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:32,679 Speaker 6: I don't like being in clubs.

They don't 184 00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:31,200 Speaker 6: tell you that the that the brown line can take you. 185 00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:33,520 Speaker 6: The other director write to the south side. 186 00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:40,880 Speaker 2: Now we're on Taylor here, So Adam Taylor just moved 187 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:42,560 Speaker 2: into this place that he's in right now. 188 00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:46,120 Speaker 5: And yes, his fist fancy shelving and everything. 189 00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:48,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, yesterday we we ripping them because those shelves are empty. 190 00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:50,680 Speaker 2: And he just built a bunch of Ikia stuff. And 191 00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:52,960 Speaker 2: now I have to give him ship for having the 192 00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:57,720 Speaker 2: NBA Cup on there. Like the most problem is the 193 00:07:58,160 --> 00:07:59,000 Speaker 2: champions I. 194 00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:02,320 Speaker 6: Mean, is the thing the first that has to be 195 00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:07,559 Speaker 6: the first time I've seen any any like NBA Cup 196 00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:12,679 Speaker 6: paraphernalia whatsoever T shirt, like T shirt that says twenty 197 00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:14,080 Speaker 6: twenty five NBA Cup. 198 00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:15,080 Speaker 5: Haven't seen one of those. 199 00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:18,400 Speaker 6: I haven't seen anybody hold up, hold up a ring 200 00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:20,840 Speaker 6: that says NBA Cup champ. That is the first piece 201 00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:23,880 Speaker 6: of paraphernalia that is celebrating the NBA Cup other than 202 00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:26,640 Speaker 6: the actual NBA Cup I've ever seen in my life. 203 00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:28,800 Speaker 4: When you're a Knicks fan, you'll take any championship you 204 00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:29,520 Speaker 4: can get, man. 205 00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:33,880 Speaker 6: I like I appreciate the prominence of the North Carolina 206 00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:34,640 Speaker 6: football helmet. 207 00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:36,920 Speaker 5: Though. I like that that that took president. 208 00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:43,440 Speaker 4: That's where he played. Of course, did you actually play practice? 209 00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:46,079 Speaker 4: He walked on in practiced. 210 00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:49,160 Speaker 6: Well, I walked out of practice, man. Like, I've always 211 00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:51,280 Speaker 6: been a closet North Carolina fans. My brother loved the 212 00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:53,400 Speaker 6: basketball team growing up. And then you know, one of 213 00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:55,800 Speaker 6: our close friends is Mac Brown. And obviously, when as 214 00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:58,280 Speaker 6: soon as he took the North Carolina job, because we 215 00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:00,240 Speaker 6: were working together at ESPN, when he took the the 216 00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:03,280 Speaker 6: UNC job again, so I became a de facto North 217 00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:05,000 Speaker 6: Carolina fan football fan once again. 218 00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:09,960 Speaker 5: So Taylor in that sense, Yeah, a lot of a 219 00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:11,880 Speaker 5: lot of big time Max, a lot of big Max 220 00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:13,480 Speaker 5: at North Carolina and Chapel Hill. 221 00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:17,040 Speaker 1: So you have the first two US games versus Brazil 222 00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:19,960 Speaker 1: and Great Britain, and Taylor yesterday was talking about just 223 00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:23,679 Speaker 1: how emotional this thing gets. And I wish we can 224 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:26,360 Speaker 1: kind of bottle that up and hand it over to 225 00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:28,880 Speaker 1: Major League Baseball. When these go, these guys go back 226 00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:30,840 Speaker 1: to their respective teams. But is that the thing that 227 00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:33,800 Speaker 1: makes it the most intriguing and emotional just playing for country, 228 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:34,640 Speaker 1: playing for the flag. 229 00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:35,720 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think so. 230 00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:39,000 Speaker 6: And you know, I hear the Olympic comparison sometimes and 231 00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:40,920 Speaker 6: I think it is very much like soccer. People take 232 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:44,880 Speaker 6: the World Cup to heart, I feel like in a 233 00:09:44,920 --> 00:09:47,480 Speaker 6: lot deeper of a fashion than maybe they do the 234 00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:49,599 Speaker 6: Olympics in soccer, and I think that translates over to 235 00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:52,400 Speaker 6: baseball as well, whereas like the World Cup of Hockey 236 00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:55,000 Speaker 6: might not have the same emotional detachment that say, the 237 00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:57,840 Speaker 6: Olympics that we just saw in Italy had. So for 238 00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 6: you know, for whatever reason, this has become premier international event. 239 00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:02,560 Speaker 6: I think a lot of it just has to do 240 00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:05,800 Speaker 6: because you get the MLB guys, You get the best, 241 00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:08,280 Speaker 6: truly the best talent in the world, and a lot 242 00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:10,440 Speaker 6: of the guys who play in Major League Baseball, most 243 00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:12,559 Speaker 6: of these guys that they can represent their country or 244 00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:14,520 Speaker 6: represent a country that they have a you know, a 245 00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:17,920 Speaker 6: slight connection to or a slight background with, like you know, 246 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:21,040 Speaker 6: Jazz Chisholm is playing, you know, for Great Britain, Trace Thompson, 247 00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:23,280 Speaker 6: like they have some lineage, so you know, whether it's 248 00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:25,880 Speaker 6: Behavian or whatever it might be, they have the opportunity 249 00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:28,280 Speaker 6: to do this. I'm studying up on Brazilian baseball and 250 00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:32,320 Speaker 6: you know the nineteen twenties, you know, Japanese immigrants, you know, 251 00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:35,840 Speaker 6: make up a large population of the non Brazilian population 252 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:38,160 Speaker 6: in the country, and they brought the game over and 253 00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:40,520 Speaker 6: it's always had this really deep connection. Even though they 254 00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:43,400 Speaker 6: haven't had a ton of success. There becomes this this 255 00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:47,959 Speaker 6: matter of pride about even the smallest lineage or the smallest. 256 00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:48,720 Speaker 5: Connectivity that you may have. 257 00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:51,760 Speaker 6: And then you go and hear what all these guys 258 00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:53,880 Speaker 6: from the Team USA are talking about, Aaron Judge and 259 00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:56,679 Speaker 6: Paul Skeins, and you know the comments they've made about 260 00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:59,040 Speaker 6: how this is really really meaningful. And I think the 261 00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:02,400 Speaker 6: fact that there is a global power too. Japan has 262 00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:06,440 Speaker 6: become the global power in this sport, you know, having 263 00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:09,320 Speaker 6: won three of these in the last several times out 264 00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:12,680 Speaker 6: the US, having gone down to the wire and that 265 00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:16,719 Speaker 6: great finished in twenty twenty three with trout against Otani 266 00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:19,280 Speaker 6: to finish off the final game. I think there's a 267 00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:23,880 Speaker 6: lot of those lingering memories, even if guys aren't taking 268 00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:27,600 Speaker 6: the twenty seventeen WBC to heart. What they saw three 269 00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:29,960 Speaker 6: years ago still sticks with them, and that's why you 270 00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:32,520 Speaker 6: get Aaron Judge taking over the captaincy of this team. 271 00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 6: That's why you get the discussions that we've heard over 272 00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:38,680 Speaker 6: the last week about how much this means to a 273 00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:41,120 Speaker 6: lot of guys. Whether it's in the United States, whether 274 00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:43,480 Speaker 6: it's in the dr whether it's Cuba, Puerto Rico, whatever, 275 00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:45,280 Speaker 6: this means a lot to a. 276 00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:47,360 Speaker 5: Lot of people. And I think that buzz that. 277 00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:50,160 Speaker 6: We've seen the last couple of times that this thing's 278 00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:52,600 Speaker 6: been televised. I've never called one of these games, so 279 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:55,720 Speaker 6: I'm very much looking forward to just feeling what it's 280 00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:58,120 Speaker 6: like in the building in Houston, and when we get 281 00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:00,760 Speaker 6: to the quarterfinals, if it is you know, the US 282 00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:04,520 Speaker 6: against let's say they played Venezuela again, the emotions from 283 00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:07,040 Speaker 6: what they felt three years ago that Trey Turner Grand 284 00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:10,040 Speaker 6: Slam in the seventh dating in that you know, electric game. 285 00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:12,320 Speaker 6: The atmosphere is what they're like. And then obviously there's 286 00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:15,240 Speaker 6: some political discourse that's taking place over the last year 287 00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:17,440 Speaker 6: as well that is probably going to fuel a little 288 00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:19,200 Speaker 6: bit of the fire for some of these players and 289 00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:22,800 Speaker 6: teams and countries. There's a lot that goes into the 290 00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:26,000 Speaker 6: feeling of this event right now, on top of you know, 291 00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:29,120 Speaker 6: the best players in the world playing a sport against 292 00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:30,520 Speaker 6: each other in this that competition. 293 00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:33,760 Speaker 7: Adam, what would you say to Yankee fans who are 294 00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:37,800 Speaker 7: wondering if there's any correlation between their lack of winning 295 00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:42,480 Speaker 7: World Series and Aaron judges pregame speech. I guess to 296 00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:43,520 Speaker 7: the team, say. 297 00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:45,480 Speaker 5: You wanted a little bit more. 298 00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:48,360 Speaker 6: You thought that was a glimpse into what the Yankees 299 00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:51,040 Speaker 6: locker room might be like August fourteen. 300 00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:53,400 Speaker 5: Yes, guy, I could have used a little more. 301 00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:55,240 Speaker 4: I mean he did. 302 00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:57,319 Speaker 7: I saw that and I was like, okay, now it 303 00:12:57,360 --> 00:12:58,959 Speaker 7: makes sense why the Blue Jays kind of dragged this 304 00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:00,240 Speaker 7: in the playoffs, right. 305 00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:02,680 Speaker 1: But then he saw the moonshot he hit once the 306 00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:04,320 Speaker 1: game start and was like, Oh, that guy's good. 307 00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:06,559 Speaker 6: This is one of those classic let my play do 308 00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:08,080 Speaker 6: the talking type of things. 309 00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:10,839 Speaker 3: That's that's what that's what I think actually talking. 310 00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:13,880 Speaker 6: I was gonna say, like, I want to see who 311 00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:15,480 Speaker 6: the guy's going to be. That that gets these guys 312 00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:18,000 Speaker 6: fired up. Like Bregman's not like the loudest guy, but 313 00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:20,280 Speaker 6: he's he can be an inspirational dude. I've been around 314 00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:22,280 Speaker 6: him a couple of times in his college and pro 315 00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:24,400 Speaker 6: career when he's you know, little fire under some of 316 00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:26,600 Speaker 6: his guys. It's not going to be Schemes. You know, 317 00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:28,679 Speaker 6: Schemes isn't going to do anything, but he's going to 318 00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:30,560 Speaker 6: let his play do the talking. I think that is 319 00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:35,439 Speaker 6: interesting to see the way that, you know, not to overgeneralize, 320 00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:36,880 Speaker 6: but I think, you know, we we see it from 321 00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:40,240 Speaker 6: Latin American countries, their fan bases, the energy that they 322 00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:44,440 Speaker 6: pour into their players, and the reciprocation of that energy. 323 00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:47,040 Speaker 6: I think it comes down to style of play. I 324 00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:50,040 Speaker 6: don't think America has ever really had a ton of 325 00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:55,280 Speaker 6: I would say elite, elite, elite level players that have 326 00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:59,200 Speaker 6: the wildest personalities. I think the best players in America 327 00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:01,760 Speaker 6: have typically been and kind of the quieter guys, the 328 00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:05,920 Speaker 6: more intensive, the more internal. I think those types of 329 00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:10,160 Speaker 6: personalities where you look at some of the Latin American countries, 330 00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:14,160 Speaker 6: even going over into Europe into players from Czechia and 331 00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:17,000 Speaker 6: things like that. Brazil certainly has a little bit of 332 00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:20,160 Speaker 6: that as well. This kind of flair for the sport, 333 00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:22,800 Speaker 6: the emotions of the game, the crowd, feeds into them 334 00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:25,000 Speaker 6: and they feed it back to them. You know those 335 00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:26,280 Speaker 6: moments that we saw. I think it was in the 336 00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:28,520 Speaker 6: semi finals of few years ago in Raindy Euros. Arena 337 00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:31,160 Speaker 6: makes that catch at the wall and kind of, you know, 338 00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:34,000 Speaker 6: poses and puts acrosses his arms and he can kind 339 00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:36,680 Speaker 6: of feel that the electricity of that moment from the 340 00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:39,280 Speaker 6: fan base of Mexico going into him and the way 341 00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:41,680 Speaker 6: he kind of projects that out. That's one of the 342 00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:44,080 Speaker 6: things I do love. I wish that the US had 343 00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:46,400 Speaker 6: a little bit more of that. Maybe as the games 344 00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:49,560 Speaker 6: intensify and some new players have found themselves in the fold, 345 00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:51,320 Speaker 6: maybe we'll see a little bit more of that emotion, 346 00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:54,840 Speaker 6: even if it's in little little spurts. But I do 347 00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:58,040 Speaker 6: love that part of it from watching players around the 348 00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:01,040 Speaker 6: world and the electricity that the fans bring to these 349 00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:04,520 Speaker 6: events and how they reciprocate that anytime they make something 350 00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:05,400 Speaker 6: cool happen. 351 00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:05,680 Speaker 5: On the field. 352 00:15:05,880 --> 00:15:07,480 Speaker 2: Adam, I have a question for you, But at first 353 00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:09,520 Speaker 2: I want to say I knew I wasn't crazy. You 354 00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:12,400 Speaker 2: mentioned Cechia and I was like, when did they start 355 00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:15,200 Speaker 2: shortening the name? I was like, you're right, they called 356 00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:18,680 Speaker 2: the Czechoslovakia my whole life writer or the Czech Republic 357 00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:23,040 Speaker 2: or whatever. I just looked it up that officially applied 358 00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:26,120 Speaker 2: to have that registered as their name July fifth of 359 00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:28,760 Speaker 2: twenty sixteen, So it's only it hasn't even been ten 360 00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:30,000 Speaker 2: years now thanks. 361 00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:34,120 Speaker 4: To go about that. I mean, I thought I. 362 00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:34,600 Speaker 8: Was going crazy. 363 00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:35,280 Speaker 4: I thought I loved it. 364 00:15:35,520 --> 00:15:38,120 Speaker 6: I saw c Chechi at one point, I was like, 365 00:15:38,680 --> 00:15:40,440 Speaker 6: who is this a new country that I missed? 366 00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:42,920 Speaker 5: Like, Hi, did I miss an. 367 00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:46,280 Speaker 6: Entire international event in an Eastern European country that I 368 00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:48,160 Speaker 6: was just completely unaware of? And I know I'm not 369 00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:51,520 Speaker 6: the most globally political, politically savvy person on the planet. 370 00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:53,800 Speaker 5: I was like, I know there's something there. 371 00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:56,280 Speaker 6: So I had to convince my girlfriend's twelve year old son, 372 00:15:56,320 --> 00:15:59,960 Speaker 6: who knows like every country by shape and recognition, like 373 00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:01,960 Speaker 6: you can just see it and know what it is. 374 00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:03,680 Speaker 5: He's like, that, what's check Ya. 375 00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:06,560 Speaker 6: Because I said, I think I think that's Checkia And 376 00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:08,560 Speaker 6: we had to go look it up together the other day. 377 00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:09,320 Speaker 4: So I'm. 378 00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:12,240 Speaker 5: In the same boat. 379 00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:14,440 Speaker 4: I'm curious. So you said, it's your first WBC. 380 00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:18,280 Speaker 2: What kind of things like only in the WBC stuff 381 00:16:18,280 --> 00:16:20,840 Speaker 2: are you like prepared for that? Maybe is like a 382 00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:22,800 Speaker 2: different in terms of the call, even if it's like 383 00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:23,680 Speaker 2: the atmosphere. 384 00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:28,960 Speaker 6: The hope is that the atmospheres are what we've come 385 00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:31,680 Speaker 6: to traditionally know where it is loud in between pitches 386 00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:34,760 Speaker 6: like that does. I've always said that, especially do in TV, 387 00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:39,000 Speaker 6: that the crowd is another element, another tool that you 388 00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:42,240 Speaker 6: should use to make your broadcast better. And when the 389 00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:44,560 Speaker 6: crowd is great, And this is why playoff baseball is, 390 00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:47,120 Speaker 6: you know, one of the greatest things I've ever been 391 00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:49,880 Speaker 6: fortunate enough to call, just especially you know, these last 392 00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:51,840 Speaker 6: couple of years we've had great series, have been very 393 00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:54,880 Speaker 6: fortunate in great atmospheres, whether it's New York or Philly, 394 00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:57,840 Speaker 6: or Seattle or Detroit. The last couple of times I've 395 00:16:57,880 --> 00:17:00,320 Speaker 6: gone out and done playoff games, like you you do 396 00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:03,200 Speaker 6: take a step back because you do see how every 397 00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:05,840 Speaker 6: pitch gets magnified. And that's why playoff baseball, much like 398 00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:09,720 Speaker 6: playoff basketball in the NBA, feels like different sports, the 399 00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:11,720 Speaker 6: NFL does not feel like a different sport when you 400 00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:14,399 Speaker 6: watch the playoffs. Maybe you might get coaches be a 401 00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:16,960 Speaker 6: little bit more aggressive because it's a done situation or whatever, 402 00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:19,880 Speaker 6: but the sport itself, the energy is kind of played 403 00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:22,240 Speaker 6: and ridden the same way. 404 00:17:22,280 --> 00:17:22,600 Speaker 5: It is. 405 00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:24,920 Speaker 6: Hey, here's a play. Let's enjoy the emotion of the 406 00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:26,760 Speaker 6: play or the result of it. All, right, what's the 407 00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:30,160 Speaker 6: next play? After another thirty second break as teams, you know, regroup. 408 00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:34,480 Speaker 6: In baseball during the regular season, a June twelfth game 409 00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:36,600 Speaker 6: is going to feel a lot different than one played 410 00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:39,560 Speaker 6: on October twelfth. And I think when you get to 411 00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:43,840 Speaker 6: the WBC, depending on the country, depending on the atmosphere, 412 00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:46,359 Speaker 6: depending on the location, depending on the fan base, all 413 00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:48,800 Speaker 6: of that certainly, but you do feel like there is 414 00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:53,080 Speaker 6: a a heightened sense of energy magnification of all of 415 00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:55,399 Speaker 6: these pitches. You may not feel it in the second 416 00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:58,440 Speaker 6: inning of USA Brazil, but you'll feel it come quarter 417 00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:00,640 Speaker 6: final time. You'll get it in the knock out stages 418 00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:03,320 Speaker 6: of this tournament. So, you know, I think we want 419 00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:06,560 Speaker 6: to use that as a tool. I think the other 420 00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:10,280 Speaker 6: part that you get to explore a little bit is 421 00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:12,000 Speaker 6: talking globally. 422 00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:14,440 Speaker 5: You know, I have had to learn a little bit. 423 00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:17,560 Speaker 6: About the history of Brazil and its connectivity to Japan. 424 00:18:17,760 --> 00:18:21,800 Speaker 6: Why they have so many Japanese players or you know, 425 00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:25,520 Speaker 6: Japanese citizenship players that are born in South Polo. The 426 00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:30,200 Speaker 6: manager Yuichi Matsumoto for Brazil. He was born in South 427 00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:33,840 Speaker 6: Paolo became a Japanese citizen about twenty years ago used 428 00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:37,040 Speaker 6: the name Yuichi's name is actually Danielle Matsumoto, but he 429 00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:40,600 Speaker 6: uses the name Yuichi because he didn't want his citizenship 430 00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:44,000 Speaker 6: to count against the foreign player limit that teams in 431 00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:46,520 Speaker 6: Japan have. The only they have room for a couple 432 00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:49,040 Speaker 6: of foreign born players on all of these rosters, because 433 00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:52,760 Speaker 6: this is high level baseball being played in Nippon, whether 434 00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:55,480 Speaker 6: it's an NPB or the Central League or the Pacific League. 435 00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:58,600 Speaker 6: So like learning a little bit about the history of baseball. 436 00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:01,560 Speaker 6: First manager for the Scinnati Red Stockings in the eighteen 437 00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:04,639 Speaker 6: sixties was British born, so great Britain does have a 438 00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:06,560 Speaker 6: little bit of this lineage with the sport going back 439 00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:09,040 Speaker 6: to the nineteenth century. I think there are some cool 440 00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:12,880 Speaker 6: things that we can sprinkle in as a production crew. 441 00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:14,119 Speaker 5: Myself as an announcer. 442 00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:17,359 Speaker 6: You know, I'm working with Adam Waynwright and Agent Prazinski, 443 00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:20,440 Speaker 6: and you know their curiosity might might come into play. 444 00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:21,720 Speaker 6: So I got to be a little bit, you know, 445 00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:24,800 Speaker 6: on my toes, ready to answer some question or at 446 00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:27,879 Speaker 6: least have a working knowledge of the of the backgrounds 447 00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:30,399 Speaker 6: of these countries and their connection to baseball. So I 448 00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:31,960 Speaker 6: think that those are a couple of things that are 449 00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:33,840 Speaker 6: a little bit different. But at the end of the day, 450 00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:36,160 Speaker 6: same deal as all. As you document what's in front 451 00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:38,520 Speaker 6: of you, you ride the emotion of the moment, you 452 00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:40,639 Speaker 6: try to put it into context and hopefully have some 453 00:19:40,680 --> 00:19:41,400 Speaker 6: fun along the way. 454 00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:43,240 Speaker 2: It does feel like a team named the Red Stockings 455 00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:44,800 Speaker 2: should be managed by a British guy. 456 00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:48,320 Speaker 6: Just that by the way, Yeah, well, what do you 457 00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:52,160 Speaker 6: think all name should be the Stockings? 458 00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:52,840 Speaker 5: Is that right? 459 00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:53,119 Speaker 6: Like? 460 00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:55,440 Speaker 5: That was the first time I've even tried. I didn't 461 00:19:55,440 --> 00:19:57,560 Speaker 5: think today I was going to like, hey's not that 462 00:19:57,600 --> 00:20:00,240 Speaker 5: British accent. I've been working. Did not work on that 463 00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:00,520 Speaker 5: at all. 464 00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:02,480 Speaker 6: Just busting it out because for you guys at the moment, 465 00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:04,240 Speaker 6: I'm so sorry for anybody who had here. 466 00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:06,000 Speaker 4: No, we appreciate you doing it, Adam. 467 00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:08,359 Speaker 1: That urgency you talk about and the excitement that you 468 00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:11,240 Speaker 1: talk about with the fan base, the NFL, all those games. 469 00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:14,800 Speaker 1: The NFL has figured it out, College football has figured 470 00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:17,320 Speaker 1: it out. Every game feels like a playoff game because 471 00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:18,480 Speaker 1: there are so few games. 472 00:20:18,520 --> 00:20:20,120 Speaker 4: There's only seventeen of them. 473 00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:23,600 Speaker 1: And with this it simply stakes an urgency, right, the 474 00:20:23,640 --> 00:20:25,000 Speaker 1: season's not as long. 475 00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:26,000 Speaker 4: They're playing for the country. 476 00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:28,720 Speaker 1: There's urgency, there are stakes attached to it, don't you 477 00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:31,640 Speaker 1: think Major League base Because you're right, game seventy two. 478 00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:34,520 Speaker 1: Regular season it's hard to get excited for, right, but 479 00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:37,200 Speaker 1: post season very easy to get excited for. It's the 480 00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:40,560 Speaker 1: best of five or best of seven. I'm wondering if 481 00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:43,240 Speaker 1: you think Major League Baseball should kind of learn from 482 00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:46,520 Speaker 1: from the NFL college football and maybe shorten the season 483 00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:49,280 Speaker 1: a bit and try to create that urgency throughout the 484 00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:50,000 Speaker 1: regular season. 485 00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:54,320 Speaker 6: I've kind of thought about this lately just because of 486 00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:56,639 Speaker 6: the discussion around the NBA and some of the anti 487 00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:58,639 Speaker 6: tanking measures that Adam Silver is going to want to 488 00:20:58,640 --> 00:20:59,639 Speaker 6: try to implement next. 489 00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:01,879 Speaker 5: Year, Like how do you combat that? 490 00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:04,680 Speaker 6: And certainly one of the suggestions has been will cut 491 00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:06,600 Speaker 6: down the amount of games? And that's going to, you know, 492 00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:09,520 Speaker 6: at least force the urgency, the height and the weight 493 00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:12,160 Speaker 6: of each of these games to rise. Like it's two 494 00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:15,800 Speaker 6: to one baseball to basketball, it's two to one baseball 495 00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:19,080 Speaker 6: to hockey. But when you look at the NFL, like 496 00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:23,040 Speaker 6: ten baseball games is basically worth one NFL game, Like 497 00:21:23,160 --> 00:21:26,840 Speaker 6: that's significant, you know, stakes. And I also am at 498 00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:28,480 Speaker 6: the point where I look at the NFL and don't 499 00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:30,159 Speaker 6: get me wrong, I love calling NFL and I'll call 500 00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:31,880 Speaker 6: as many games as I get a chance to because 501 00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:34,560 Speaker 6: it is fun. It is that sense of urgency every 502 00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:38,879 Speaker 6: single game. I still wonder, are we coming to a 503 00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:41,920 Speaker 6: critical mass when it comes to the amount of games 504 00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:42,800 Speaker 6: that they want to play? 505 00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:43,760 Speaker 5: Now? Yes? 506 00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:46,200 Speaker 6: Do I think by a second by week will help 507 00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:49,080 Speaker 6: if you're going to extend the season to eighteen games, Yes, 508 00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:52,360 Speaker 6: I do. But I also know that at times we've 509 00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:55,879 Speaker 6: seen the level of play very diluted, especially early in 510 00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:57,760 Speaker 6: the season, like the first month of the year has 511 00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:00,840 Speaker 6: almost become like a de facto preseason in for the NFL. 512 00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:03,919 Speaker 6: I look at Major League Baseball. I always I remember 513 00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:06,800 Speaker 6: working a couple of different minor league baseball seasons. I 514 00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:08,600 Speaker 6: did a one hundred and twenty six game year. I 515 00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:11,200 Speaker 6: did one hundred and forty game year, and I thought, man, 516 00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:14,479 Speaker 6: we got to September, like late August, all these games 517 00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:17,840 Speaker 6: feel like way more important, so and they feel more 518 00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:20,840 Speaker 6: urgent earlier and earlier. You know, we've got twenty games 519 00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:23,560 Speaker 6: left in the NBA season. Basically, the Bulls have played 520 00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:26,080 Speaker 6: sixty two games that I had sixty three, and we're 521 00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:29,080 Speaker 6: already at that countdown phase where it's like, oh, man, 522 00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:32,520 Speaker 6: that liked three a lot. A lot of folks are 523 00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:35,240 Speaker 6: already chanting for it or kanekoon or wherever you're preferred 524 00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:38,160 Speaker 6: destination might be, or whatever sounds good in the chance. 525 00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:41,960 Speaker 6: But I think all of these leagues and I don't 526 00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:44,240 Speaker 6: think they'll do it, obviously for obvious reasons that I'm 527 00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:46,240 Speaker 6: sure have been discussed a million times. Ownership doesn't want 528 00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:48,040 Speaker 6: to give up the revenue. You know, they make money 529 00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:50,080 Speaker 6: on the gate, they make money on ticket sales, all that, 530 00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:53,320 Speaker 6: But will the quality of play? Are we reaching a 531 00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:56,399 Speaker 6: critical mass in sports where quality of play gets so 532 00:22:56,560 --> 00:22:59,520 Speaker 6: diluted because of the length of seasons, because of the 533 00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:02,600 Speaker 6: compact times of these games. 534 00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:03,480 Speaker 5: The NBA has. 535 00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:05,600 Speaker 6: Had that problem for a little while too, where there's 536 00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:08,800 Speaker 6: very little practice time. The Bulls are taking a full 537 00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:12,760 Speaker 6: off day on Friday and Phoenix exact two days between games. 538 00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:16,200 Speaker 6: They're going to have an actual practice on Saturday before 539 00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:18,760 Speaker 6: they play again on Sunday. And that's been a rarity 540 00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:20,480 Speaker 6: for the Bulls and I think for a lot of them, 541 00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:23,320 Speaker 6: I'm sure for every NBA team because they play similar schedules, 542 00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:26,199 Speaker 6: it's hard to find practice time. So a lot of 543 00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:28,119 Speaker 6: the younger players in this league that are coming up, 544 00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:30,600 Speaker 6: the nineteen twenty, twenty one to twenty two year olds, 545 00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:34,840 Speaker 6: they're getting their best opportunities in the seven minutes they 546 00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:37,439 Speaker 6: might get to play in a game, and that's just 547 00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:40,080 Speaker 6: not conducive to a high level of play. So I'm 548 00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:42,919 Speaker 6: wondering what the critical mass across professional sports is going 549 00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:46,919 Speaker 6: to be. We're finally owners and players and coaches, and 550 00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:49,400 Speaker 6: I think the loudest voices, hopefully would be the fans 551 00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:53,240 Speaker 6: to say the quality of play has been so heavily 552 00:23:53,320 --> 00:23:57,400 Speaker 6: deluded that these guys do need a break. And maybe 553 00:23:57,440 --> 00:24:01,240 Speaker 6: somebody is willing to say, will take on less money 554 00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:05,320 Speaker 6: if it means a greater health for the long term 555 00:24:05,320 --> 00:24:07,400 Speaker 6: exposure of the sport. I don't know if we'll ever 556 00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:09,399 Speaker 6: get that, because I just don't know if that's in 557 00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:11,280 Speaker 6: a lot of human beings nature to do that. 558 00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:14,520 Speaker 5: Money it's not, it's not, and have. 559 00:24:14,640 --> 00:24:17,200 Speaker 6: To help themselves in the short term. Who gives a 560 00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:19,280 Speaker 6: ship about the long term, Because I'm not gonna be 561 00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:21,440 Speaker 6: here that seems to be a general mentality that takes 562 00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:23,680 Speaker 6: over for a lot of people in high up positions 563 00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:26,360 Speaker 6: in sports and probably across corporations in every line of work. 564 00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:29,159 Speaker 6: I do think that, you know, there is going to 565 00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:30,480 Speaker 6: be a critical mess, and I'll wonder what. 566 00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:32,280 Speaker 5: I wonder what the response will be to that. 567 00:24:32,520 --> 00:24:35,240 Speaker 2: I've got an idea. Hear me out, Yeah, an in 568 00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:36,400 Speaker 2: season tournament. 569 00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:43,760 Speaker 6: Do you do you think I think there should be 570 00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:45,320 Speaker 6: like I don't know, we could call it a cup 571 00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:46,399 Speaker 6: or something like that. 572 00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:48,639 Speaker 5: I don't know if that would actually help. I don't know. 573 00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:52,560 Speaker 5: I'm not sure I can. I say. 574 00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:56,000 Speaker 6: The question is, can I sell merchandise like maybe replica 575 00:24:56,040 --> 00:24:58,200 Speaker 6: trophies to some suckers out there? 576 00:24:58,240 --> 00:24:59,639 Speaker 5: I don't know if they're I don't know if anybody 577 00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:01,520 Speaker 5: can act is actually gonna fall for that? 578 00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:03,480 Speaker 6: Me? 579 00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:04,240 Speaker 4: Taylor would? 580 00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:08,080 Speaker 5: That's what That's what's called the callback. Guys. 581 00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:11,680 Speaker 3: It's it time to play blind rankings. 582 00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:15,080 Speaker 1: It is, yes, but before we get to blind rankings. 583 00:25:15,119 --> 00:25:17,600 Speaker 1: Sorry about the call back, Before we get to uh 584 00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:21,199 Speaker 1: to blind rankings. The Bears are not leaving Chicago, right, 585 00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:23,600 Speaker 1: There's no way they play in Indiana. I know Indiana 586 00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:25,919 Speaker 1: is the center of the football universe right now. But 587 00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:28,240 Speaker 1: there's no way the Bears are going to play there. 588 00:25:28,359 --> 00:25:31,119 Speaker 6: Right Listen, listen until you drive through Gary and you 589 00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:34,200 Speaker 6: see that delightful ham in the skyline. Don't don't quit, 590 00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:38,199 Speaker 6: don't don't knock until you've you've driven through the smokestacks, right, 591 00:25:38,440 --> 00:25:39,840 Speaker 6: is all I'll say. I used to work in Gary, 592 00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:42,240 Speaker 6: Indiana is one of my first jobs, and we'd drive 593 00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:44,640 Speaker 6: in a in a Northwest Indiana plenty, and I always thought, 594 00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:46,359 Speaker 6: I don't know, I don't know if this is this 595 00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:48,560 Speaker 6: is the setting for it, but I do think there 596 00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:49,320 Speaker 6: was a lot of jock. 597 00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:51,359 Speaker 5: It's just a lot of political jockey. You know. 598 00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:54,000 Speaker 6: It's been to the frustration in chagrin of a lot 599 00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:56,400 Speaker 6: of fans in the city, and I'm sure in Indiana too. 600 00:25:56,720 --> 00:25:58,879 Speaker 6: I have no blame to the state of Indiana for 601 00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:01,800 Speaker 6: trying to do so thing that would help their own state. 602 00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:03,040 Speaker 5: There's nothing wrong with that. 603 00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:06,159 Speaker 6: I think the frustrations lie with you spend all this 604 00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:09,200 Speaker 6: money on a suburban Chicago you plot, you know over 605 00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:11,760 Speaker 6: where Arlington Heights Racetrack used to be. You spend all 606 00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:14,840 Speaker 6: this money on it. You wanted, The plans seemed understandable. 607 00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:16,520 Speaker 6: It's what the Patriots have done. It's what the cowboys 608 00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:19,240 Speaker 6: have done. And let me literally, if I'm Jerry Jones 609 00:26:19,320 --> 00:26:21,520 Speaker 6: or Bob Kraft, what did they do. They took all 610 00:26:21,560 --> 00:26:25,040 Speaker 6: the land around those surrounding areas, bought up all the 611 00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:27,800 Speaker 6: leases for it, sold them out. That's what the Cubs 612 00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:31,080 Speaker 6: have done. And Wrigleyville in Lakeview and stuff like that 613 00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:33,240 Speaker 6: they own, They print money, and. 614 00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:35,520 Speaker 5: That's like, all right, it seems like a sound business idea. 615 00:26:35,560 --> 00:26:37,359 Speaker 6: I don't love the idea of the Bears not being 616 00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:39,840 Speaker 6: in the city, but it makes sense when you consider 617 00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:41,879 Speaker 6: what's happening around the NFL and if it's going to 618 00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:44,960 Speaker 6: help the health of the organization. And then you're playing 619 00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:47,159 Speaker 6: with people's emotions by saying, well, now we're going to 620 00:26:47,240 --> 00:26:49,439 Speaker 6: leave the state. I never was convinced that was going 621 00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:51,080 Speaker 6: to be the case. I always thought it was a 622 00:26:51,080 --> 00:26:54,600 Speaker 6: political move. It seems like that's what it's s geering towards. 623 00:26:54,640 --> 00:26:56,040 Speaker 6: And it seems like the Bears are going to end 624 00:26:56,080 --> 00:26:58,440 Speaker 6: up in Arlington Heights, where they were probably going to 625 00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:00,439 Speaker 6: go in the first place. At the they bought up 626 00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:01,760 Speaker 6: all that land of years ago. 627 00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:04,840 Speaker 2: Right, that's all it is. Yeah, Well, well, Stu collects 628 00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:06,639 Speaker 2: his list of ten names. Have a couple of quick 629 00:27:06,680 --> 00:27:08,880 Speaker 2: hotel questions for you. One did you make your bed 630 00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:09,880 Speaker 2: a little bit just for us? 631 00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:11,880 Speaker 5: I did? I did. 632 00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:14,640 Speaker 6: How could you tell, though, because that means you knew 633 00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:17,480 Speaker 6: it was not perfect. It's not It's not like I 634 00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:19,960 Speaker 6: just checked in. I clearly slept in this thing last night. 635 00:27:20,119 --> 00:27:22,399 Speaker 6: But you're like, it seems like there might be a 636 00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:23,520 Speaker 6: little bit of touch up here. 637 00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:25,439 Speaker 3: But I appreciate that. You know you don't want to 638 00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:26,520 Speaker 3: messy background. 639 00:27:26,680 --> 00:27:27,920 Speaker 4: Well, do you get deep into the bed? 640 00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:30,679 Speaker 1: Because my wife refuses to sleep on the sheets in 641 00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:32,600 Speaker 1: a hotel, like, she will not get under the cover, 642 00:27:32,680 --> 00:27:34,600 Speaker 1: She'll bring her own blanket. 643 00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:36,719 Speaker 6: Like, I think part of it is just it you're 644 00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:38,680 Speaker 6: so exhausted, the point where we just ripped the bed, 645 00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:41,320 Speaker 6: you know, the betting off, and then get underneath. 646 00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:43,000 Speaker 5: Right, I do have a question do you guys? 647 00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:47,000 Speaker 6: So first off, whether you have significant others or not, curios, 648 00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:48,720 Speaker 6: do you sleep on one side of the bed? 649 00:27:48,800 --> 00:27:49,280 Speaker 5: Do you do? 650 00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:49,320 Speaker 8: You? 651 00:27:49,359 --> 00:27:49,560 Speaker 5: Guys? 652 00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:52,040 Speaker 6: Just like like I, I sleep on the same side 653 00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:55,119 Speaker 6: of the bed every single night.

And then when I travel, I just sleep 656 00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:02,320 Speaker 6: in that singular lane. 657 00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:05,040 Speaker 5: I can't I'm not a starfish guy.
