It wasn't a medal at all. 174 00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:20,400 Speaker 4: It was just I mean, and no one gave us 175 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:22,880 Speaker 4: a shot and of course none. 176 00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:24,840 Speaker 6: But like you you know, when they beat the Soviet Union, 177 00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:28,280 Speaker 6: that's like that's when they took the definitive lead in 178 00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:29,320 Speaker 6: the round robin tournament. 179 00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:31,600 Speaker 3: But it wasn't this like you know, playoff style that 180 00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:31,960 Speaker 3: we have. 181 00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:32,680 Speaker 4: Now in the Olympics. 182 00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:34,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, they they you know, you had to win by 183 00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:37,680 Speaker 2: certain goals.

But 184 00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:41,240 Speaker 2: bottom line is United States wins the gold in hockey. 185 00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:45,120 Speaker 2: And so this is really tremendous, absolutely tremendous out there. 186 00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:48,600 Speaker 2: So I have to say, uh, even though I started 187 00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:52,320 Speaker 2: the winter Olympics.

We know that we got free 293 00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:42,360 Speaker 2: agency coming up, then we get to the draft, so 294 00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:44,920 Speaker 2: it's always there. But you know it's time maybe to 295 00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:47,840 Speaker 2: take a look at a few other things. So yesterday, 296 00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:51,600 Speaker 2: well over the last couple of days, my partner VJA 297 00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:54,319 Speaker 2: just giving me a lot of crap, deservedly so, by 298 00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:58,599 Speaker 2: the way, for the complete downfall, the UCLA basketball programs 299 00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:02,400 Speaker 2: suffered back to back twenty point losses on the road 300 00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:05,240 Speaker 2: against Michigan. Michigan State that had not happened at UCLA 301 00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:08,960 Speaker 2: says nineteen forty five. Ouch, last time they had had 302 00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:13,480 Speaker 2: back to back losses of twenty plus points. So Friday night, 303 00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:17,560 Speaker 2: I'm doing my LATV, and my producer's like, hey, tomorrow's Saturday. 304 00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:19,880 Speaker 2: You want to do a commentary on mc cronin. And 305 00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:22,880 Speaker 2: I'm like, you know, I really don't want to. I've 306 00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:24,800 Speaker 2: been a supporter of his, but he was way out 307 00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:26,160 Speaker 2: of line with the situation. 308 00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:28,560 Speaker 3: And honestly, I think it's. 309 00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:31,120 Speaker 2: Trouble because he had to make a public apology because 310 00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:34,240 Speaker 2: you know, the university dropped the hammer on him, right 311 00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:37,760 Speaker 2: because they could threaten that they could fire him with 312 00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:40,160 Speaker 2: cause you don't want that and you don't have to 313 00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:44,080 Speaker 2: avoid that contract. So he goes out and apologizes. So 314 00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:47,400 Speaker 2: I'm thinking about my commentary, and then I'm watching the game. 315 00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:50,880 Speaker 3: They're playing Illinois at home. They're down thirty three to ten. 316 00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:55,360 Speaker 2: I'm like, oh my god, they have quit on him. Literally, 317 00:14:55,760 --> 00:14:57,800 Speaker 2: the team has quit on We got this, you know, 318 00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:00,000 Speaker 2: I got this whole thing in my head on this comment. 319 00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:07,160 Speaker 2: Terry and UCLA engineers an overtime comeback. It put at 320 00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:10,800 Speaker 2: this perspective. Not only the twenty three point deficit biggest 321 00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:14,880 Speaker 2: comeback in UCLA basketball history, it was the largest comeback 322 00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:23,280 Speaker 2: against an AP Top ten team ever ever. Ap Poles 323 00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:27,080 Speaker 2: started nineteen forty nine in basketball, first time ever that 324 00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:29,800 Speaker 2: a team ranked in the top ten, Illinois was at number. 325 00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:31,360 Speaker 3: Ten, had blown a twenty three point lead. 326 00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:36,160 Speaker 2: So obviously it changed the tune of my commentary. But 327 00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:38,600 Speaker 2: in a lot of ways. Here's the thing about a 328 00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:39,680 Speaker 2: guy like mc cronin. 329 00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:40,760 Speaker 3: He is who he is. 330 00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:43,360 Speaker 2: I mean, he's never changed.

My answer is always going to be yeah, 521 00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:10,359 Speaker 1: I'm okay with that. Okay. 522 00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:12,159 Speaker 4: They lost to do earlier that year too, and that 523 00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:14,400 Speaker 4: same championship year, they played them earlier in the year, 524 00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:16,560 Speaker 4: played a lot tougher that year too. So I feel 525 00:24:16,560 --> 00:24:19,440 Speaker 4: it's like my question to you was because everything I've 526 00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:21,399 Speaker 4: been watching Michigan and you're the first person pop in 527 00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:23,280 Speaker 4: my mind. I don't know anybody that loves Michigan basketball 528 00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:25,200 Speaker 4: more than you, maybe other than my brother's tears. 529 00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:28,639 Speaker 3: But what's shot?

Oh? 531 00:24:30,040 --> 00:24:33,120 Speaker 1: I think if they don't win the national championship, it's 532 00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:36,240 Speaker 1: a I think it's a lost. I expect to see 533 00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:39,959 Speaker 1: a one of those like we're gonna have this period 534 00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:42,440 Speaker 1: of time leading up to the tournament where we're gonna 535 00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:44,880 Speaker 1: try to convince ourselves that everybody else has a shot, 536 00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:47,359 Speaker 1: has a shot, And that's okay because that's what we do, right, 537 00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:49,680 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, That's how the whole business 538 00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:51,600 Speaker 1: is made, but like this is gonna be one of 539 00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:56,240 Speaker 1: those double digit each game Yukon like maybe a second half, 540 00:24:56,280 --> 00:24:58,400 Speaker 1: like they're just waiting for the second half run. 541 00:24:58,600 --> 00:25:01,600 Speaker 4: Does it?

That was okay, so. 635 00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:24,880 Speaker 2: Uh A lot of people watched and said, I like this. 636 00:29:25,040 --> 00:29:27,720 Speaker 2: You know, we got sort of like these short doses 637 00:29:28,320 --> 00:29:33,320 Speaker 2: of guy seemingly caring and playing hardcourse, unfortunately, the last 638 00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:36,640 Speaker 2: game wasn't so good, and I think Weimby was upset 639 00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:39,720 Speaker 2: because his two biggest stars on his international team, Luca 640 00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:42,720 Speaker 2: and u Jokic, played eight five. 641 00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:44,360 Speaker 3: Minutes and that was it. They were done. They weren't 642 00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:44,760 Speaker 3: going to play. 643 00:29:44,800 --> 00:29:46,600 Speaker 2: They don't care about it, and Wemby care but he 644 00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:49,000 Speaker 2: was like, those two guys don't They did not care. 645 00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:52,760 Speaker 2: They still checked out and and my argument again was okay, yeah, 646 00:29:52,800 --> 00:29:55,880 Speaker 2: they was was great to see Kawhi go off at home. 647 00:29:56,000 --> 00:29:56,800 Speaker 3: That was stuff. 648 00:29:57,040 --> 00:30:01,440 Speaker 2: But still you're you're resorting to gimmicks to somehow get 649 00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:06,440 Speaker 2: these NBA stars engaged. You have to do a gimmick 650 00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:10,080 Speaker 2: to actually get these guys to care. Because the All 651 00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:12,360 Speaker 2: Star Game, and this is not going back to Will 652 00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:15,120 Speaker 2: Chamberlain days, Let's go back to Kobe days. 653 00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:17,040 Speaker 3: Say we're Kobe years ago. 654 00:30:17,440 --> 00:30:20,240 Speaker 2: We're talking about the All Star Game was to talk 655 00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:22,720 Speaker 2: about who's the alpha dog? Right, That's what it was 656 00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:25,240 Speaker 2: all about. You know, a guy like Isaiah Thomas, you 657 00:30:25,240 --> 00:30:29,480 Speaker 2: know small and statue. He played hard in All Star games, 658 00:30:29,520 --> 00:30:33,120 Speaker 2: and obviously Kobe really relished All Star games because he 659 00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:35,880 Speaker 2: wanted to show against the best of the best that 660 00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:39,080 Speaker 2: on the top dog. That's what the All Star Game 661 00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:42,200 Speaker 2: used to be. It used to be a competition amongst 662 00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:44,760 Speaker 2: the best players in the NBA to say who's the 663 00:30:44,800 --> 00:30:47,880 Speaker 2: top dog going head to ahead in a legitimate game, 664 00:30:47,960 --> 00:30:51,280 Speaker 2: not some gimmicky game. You know that can be TikTok 665 00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:55,880 Speaker 2: and everything else. So no, sorry, you know, a couple 666 00:30:55,960 --> 00:30:58,640 Speaker 2: of you know moments where somebody actually seemed to be 667 00:30:58,680 --> 00:31:01,520 Speaker 2: excited about making a sh shot in an All Star game, 668 00:31:01,520 --> 00:31:04,840 Speaker 2: which it's not even a game anymore, is not up 669 00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:10,040 Speaker 2: to snuff again, And even Kawhi Leonard, who does remember 670 00:31:10,080 --> 00:31:15,360 Speaker 2: those days, Kawhi Leonard still said it should be East 671 00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:20,320 Speaker 2: versus West in a legitimate game. That came from Kawhi Leonard. 672 00:31:20,040 --> 00:31:22,000 Speaker 4: And it should be that too. But I'll tell you this, 673 00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:25,520 Speaker 4: it's been better than we've been seeing. It's been much 674 00:31:25,560 --> 00:31:28,200 Speaker 4: better than last year, well the last five years. Okay, 675 00:31:28,240 --> 00:31:30,720 Speaker 4: when you got guys laying down on the court because 676 00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:32,680 Speaker 4: Giannis is coming down and gonna dunk, and they don't 677 00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:34,560 Speaker 4: want to get dunked on. I get the ha ha 678 00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:36,840 Speaker 4: moment you're trying to create, but at the end of 679 00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:40,480 Speaker 4: the day, it still should be about competition. And I 680 00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:42,520 Speaker 4: can even go back to the eighties, man, I can 681 00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:44,760 Speaker 4: even go back to the nineties games, those games where 682 00:31:44,800 --> 00:31:46,960 Speaker 4: you would have just just just go back and look 683 00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:49,920 Speaker 4: at those rosters. Someone posted a picture of the East 684 00:31:49,960 --> 00:31:52,160 Speaker 4: team one year. I think it's maybe ninety one or 685 00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:54,680 Speaker 4: ninety two. Everybody on the team's the Hall of Fame. 686 00:31:54,760 --> 00:32:00,240 Speaker 4: Oh absolutely, East team one year is now a All 687 00:32:00,280 --> 00:32:03,640 Speaker 4: of Famer. Like these teams you're talking at these one 688 00:32:03,680 --> 00:32:10,480 Speaker 4: time you would have Jordan Barkley ewing iverson Grannie's hipping. 689 00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:14,400 Speaker 4: I mean, like, these teams would be just loaded, and 690 00:32:14,440 --> 00:32:16,640 Speaker 4: they would always they would openly say listen, and. 691 00:32:16,560 --> 00:32:18,840 Speaker 2: Then they get guys like Reggie Miller and Paul Pierce 692 00:32:18,880 --> 00:32:19,640 Speaker 2: off the bench. 693 00:32:19,480 --> 00:32:22,160 Speaker 4: Right, oh god, just regulm ball Piers off the bench, 694 00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:25,240 Speaker 4: Alonso morning, like the Kamin with Tombo, Like the East 695 00:32:25,400 --> 00:32:28,360 Speaker 4: used to be stacked, and they would come out and say, yeah, 696 00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:30,560 Speaker 4: the first quarter, we want to have a little fun, 697 00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:33,600 Speaker 4: get the fans a quarter. We picked up in the 698 00:32:33,640 --> 00:32:36,320 Speaker 4: second quarter a little bit and said, but third quarter 699 00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:40,440 Speaker 4: going into the fourth it's on, it's on fourth quarter. 700 00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:44,040 Speaker 2: Was it's amazing, amazing didn't get. 701 00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:45,479 Speaker 4: Back in the game like some guys didn't get back 702 00:32:45,480 --> 00:32:48,200 Speaker 4: in the game. We're keeping the big dogs on the court. 703 00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:50,920 Speaker 4: And that even carried into the early two thousands when 704 00:32:50,960 --> 00:32:54,160 Speaker 4: you talk about Kobe and Irison and Duncan and Shaq 705 00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:58,240 Speaker 4: and Garnett and Dirk and Nash and Jason Kidd, Stephon Marbray. 706 00:32:58,280 --> 00:33:00,840 Speaker 4: Go back to that All Star game in Washington where 707 00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:04,120 Speaker 4: they're going three for three. Face to face. Now Kobe 708 00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:07,160 Speaker 4: and Jason Kidd, Kobe and Stefan Marven, Kobe and a. 709 00:33:07,600 --> 00:33:10,440 Speaker 4: Jordan hits the fade away on the baseline when Iversen 710 00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:12,440 Speaker 4: does the big chest bump to him and Jordan lets 711 00:33:12,440 --> 00:33:13,200 Speaker 4: out that big laugh. 712 00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:16,320 Speaker 2: Remember when Kobe, when Kobe first got started in All 713 00:33:16,360 --> 00:33:19,760 Speaker 2: Star games, they froze them out right because they're like, 714 00:33:19,800 --> 00:33:22,280 Speaker 2: you're not ready for this, kid, Where the where are 715 00:33:22,280 --> 00:33:23,160 Speaker 2: the alpha dogs? 716 00:33:23,280 --> 00:33:26,040 Speaker 3: You'll you'll have your everybody. Jordan got frozen out. They 717 00:33:26,600 --> 00:33:29,440 Speaker 3: they froze they Jordan give out of sort of pay 718 00:33:29,480 --> 00:33:31,960 Speaker 3: your dues, prove that you are an All Star. 719 00:33:31,880 --> 00:33:35,360 Speaker 2: After several years, right, and then you can actually with. 720 00:33:35,480 --> 00:33:37,720 Speaker 4: Your first All Star Game. You you should get. You 721 00:33:37,760 --> 00:33:39,680 Speaker 4: should get about five to seven. 722 00:33:39,480 --> 00:33:42,880 Speaker 2: Minutes when you have you should get a you know, 723 00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:44,440 Speaker 2: a building full of alpha dogs. 724 00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:47,040 Speaker 3: That's the way it works. Yes, well you used to now, 725 00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:48,760 Speaker 3: but now they don't even care. 726 00:33:49,320 --> 00:33:53,000 Speaker 2: And I felt for Wimby because he was obviously frustrated 727 00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:58,040 Speaker 2: that Luca and Yokas were just sitting there. Wimby came 728 00:33:58,080 --> 00:34:01,560 Speaker 2: to play when they lost that first game on the shot. 729 00:34:01,600 --> 00:34:04,160 Speaker 2: I mean he was upset, like he was really upset. 730 00:34:04,280 --> 00:34:06,479 Speaker 2: So all right, speaking of the NBA, we got a 731 00:34:06,480 --> 00:34:07,880 Speaker 2: lot of ground to cover here. 732 00:34:07,880 --> 00:34:09,360 Speaker 3: Is you know, we only have a third of the 733 00:34:09,400 --> 00:34:12,280 Speaker 3: season left. I mean we're already two thirds like something. 734 00:34:12,360 --> 00:34:14,520 Speaker 2: Gang yeah, because the Alstar Game is late. It's not 735 00:34:14,520 --> 00:34:17,239 Speaker 2: the halfway point, it's the two thirds point. So we're 736 00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:19,440 Speaker 2: at twenty plus games to go and coming down the 737 00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:24,680 Speaker 2: stretch right now, I'm gonna have to I'm gonna have 738 00:34:24,680 --> 00:34:27,319 Speaker 2: to hold back because this man is excited right now. 739 00:34:28,480 --> 00:34:32,520 Speaker 4: Talk about anybody top the Piston in the East. I'm 740 00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:33,920 Speaker 4: not talking about my Pistons. 741 00:34:34,120 --> 00:34:38,920 Speaker 3: This is Fun Sports Sunday, My Pistons. 742 00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:43,360 Speaker 2: Steve Hartman and VJ. Husky Fox Sports Sunday. We're in 743 00:34:43,360 --> 00:34:49,320 Speaker 2: the Fox Sports Radio studios, and we gotta say something. 744 00:34:49,719 --> 00:34:51,919 Speaker 3: I know, I'm like, I'm what happened here? I mean, 745 00:34:52,960 --> 00:34:56,160 Speaker 3: you see VJ anywhere? Oh, there he is, He's he's dashing, 746 00:34:56,200 --> 00:34:58,880 Speaker 3: he's I was going to say, well, to say, this 747 00:34:58,920 --> 00:35:00,560 Speaker 3: could have this could have been the Stephen Chris segment. 748 00:35:00,680 --> 00:35:02,520 Speaker 3: I know what the heck is going on here. 749 00:35:02,640 --> 00:35:04,480 Speaker 2: I mean, I know that he's got a lot of 750 00:35:04,480 --> 00:35:07,080 Speaker 2: things to do, but here he is, especially when we're 751 00:35:07,080 --> 00:35:08,520 Speaker 2: talking about your pistons. 752 00:35:09,440 --> 00:35:13,280 Speaker 3: Let me distance here's something of my business. 753 00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:16,239 Speaker 2: Okay, you guys can take credit, but the bottom line is, 754 00:35:16,840 --> 00:35:24,520 Speaker 2: when we talk about coaches that matter, you can make 755 00:35:24,560 --> 00:35:27,960 Speaker 2: an argument that JB. Bickerstaff has done the greatest coaching 756 00:35:28,120 --> 00:35:31,000 Speaker 2: job in the history of the NBA. Think about this 757 00:35:31,040 --> 00:35:34,200 Speaker 2: for a moment. Two years ago, this team was fourteen 758 00:35:34,239 --> 00:35:38,960 Speaker 2: and sixty eight. Talking fourteen and sixty eight. Bonnie Williams 759 00:35:38,960 --> 00:35:43,400 Speaker 2: that catastrophe, right, that was coming off a seventeen win year. 760 00:35:43,360 --> 00:35:45,439 Speaker 3: Right, not his fault though, not Money's fault. 761 00:35:45,719 --> 00:35:49,000 Speaker 2: So last year Bickerstaff takes over and in one year 762 00:35:49,360 --> 00:35:51,880 Speaker 2: thirty game improvement, and now they sit with the best 763 00:35:51,920 --> 00:35:54,880 Speaker 2: record in the league. So you went from two years 764 00:35:54,920 --> 00:35:59,239 Speaker 2: ago fourteen and sixty eight to a team that's going 765 00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:01,759 Speaker 2: to win between sixty and sixty five games this year. 766 00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:03,200 Speaker 2: That's team in the East. 767 00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:05,799 Speaker 3: And when you look at their roster. 768 00:36:06,960 --> 00:36:13,400 Speaker 2: Seriously, once you get past Kate Cunningham, honestly, there's not 769 00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:15,600 Speaker 2: that much of a difference in the roster that won 770 00:36:15,680 --> 00:36:18,840 Speaker 2: fourteen games. I mean, they made a couple of little moves, 771 00:36:19,160 --> 00:36:22,640 Speaker 2: but this is not exactly a roster of like who's 772 00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:26,480 Speaker 2: who of the NBA. And yet somehow, some way, they're 773 00:36:26,480 --> 00:36:30,319 Speaker 2: not just winning, they're getting better. They're blowing teams out. 774 00:36:30,400 --> 00:36:32,279 Speaker 2: You know, we thought, we thought, you know, with the 775 00:36:32,400 --> 00:36:36,880 Speaker 2: with the the injuries to Halliburton and the Jason Tatum. Okay, okay, 776 00:36:36,960 --> 00:36:41,000 Speaker 2: so Boston's out, Indiana's out, and then you're looking at 777 00:36:41,040 --> 00:36:43,640 Speaker 2: the Knicks and you're looking at the Cavs. Those were 778 00:36:43,680 --> 00:36:45,880 Speaker 2: the two teams you thought, this is going to be 779 00:36:45,960 --> 00:36:49,359 Speaker 2: their golden opportunity. Calves are the one seed a year ago. 780 00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:52,239 Speaker 2: Knicks are right there. Those are the two teams in 781 00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:54,440 Speaker 2: the East are going to battle it out. No, forget it, 782 00:36:54,960 --> 00:36:56,520 Speaker 2: it's the Detroit Pistons. 783 00:36:56,520 --> 00:36:59,280 Speaker 3: And by the way, some people you think Kate Cunningham 784 00:36:59,280 --> 00:37:01,560 Speaker 3: should be and the MVP conversation. 785 00:37:01,760 --> 00:37:02,239 Speaker 4: I don't know. 786 00:37:02,480 --> 00:37:05,160 Speaker 2: The MVP usually goes to the best player on the 787 00:37:05,160 --> 00:37:07,120 Speaker 2: best team, and right now the best player in the 788 00:37:07,120 --> 00:37:11,160 Speaker 2: best team is Cade Cunningham. So but I'm trying to 789 00:37:11,160 --> 00:37:12,640 Speaker 2: figure this out. 790 00:37:13,120 --> 00:37:13,719 Speaker 4: How JB. 791 00:37:14,040 --> 00:37:16,719 Speaker 3: Bickerstaff, who's been around obviously had some great movie. 792 00:37:16,719 --> 00:37:18,640 Speaker 2: You know with Cleveland. I was able to help turn 793 00:37:18,680 --> 00:37:22,560 Speaker 2: that team around back in the day. But how has 794 00:37:22,600 --> 00:37:23,080 Speaker 2: he done it? 795 00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:24,040 Speaker 3: Let me help y'all out. 796 00:37:24,080 --> 00:37:26,360 Speaker 4: How is this team winning? Talk about explaining this to you, 797 00:37:26,440 --> 00:37:28,760 Speaker 4: because there's something that we talked about in football season 798 00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:31,239 Speaker 4: called x's and o's a coachure. Remember we went through 799 00:37:31,280 --> 00:37:32,919 Speaker 4: that with the coaches, and we talked about some teams 800 00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:34,879 Speaker 4: want to hire and nexus and those guys. I think 801 00:37:34,880 --> 00:37:37,200 Speaker 4: the NFL is getting back to colchure guys. That's why 802 00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:39,719 Speaker 4: I think the John Harball is a great hight. They 803 00:37:39,760 --> 00:37:41,400 Speaker 4: need a culture change. They don't need an x's and 804 00:37:41,440 --> 00:37:44,480 Speaker 4: o's guy. They need a culture change. The Pistons needed 805 00:37:44,560 --> 00:37:47,759 Speaker 4: a coulture change. Many Williams Martin is so funny that 806 00:37:47,800 --> 00:37:51,200 Speaker 4: you're here today because if you remember, Martin and I 807 00:37:51,239 --> 00:37:53,720 Speaker 4: sat right here with Steve the Seger doing the highlight 808 00:37:54,120 --> 00:37:57,920 Speaker 4: when they were fighting in their twenty nine game losing streak. 809 00:37:57,960 --> 00:38:02,320 Speaker 4: We sat right in this studio and watched it all unfold, 810 00:38:02,640 --> 00:38:05,840 Speaker 4: and I told people, when k Conneham gets back, he 811 00:38:05,920 --> 00:38:08,080 Speaker 4: was the rightful number one overall pick. It was never 812 00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:11,920 Speaker 4: about Jalen Green. He's already been traded. Okay, So with 813 00:38:11,960 --> 00:38:14,759 Speaker 4: that conversation is over. I won that debate. But when 814 00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:18,279 Speaker 4: you talk about culture, tough minded this when you got 815 00:38:18,320 --> 00:38:20,160 Speaker 4: a player like Beef student will come off the bench 816 00:38:20,160 --> 00:38:22,040 Speaker 4: and throw a punch and take his two games. We 817 00:38:22,120 --> 00:38:25,880 Speaker 4: need that. We need that. You got Jalen Durrant, who's 818 00:38:25,920 --> 00:38:28,879 Speaker 4: a double double machine. I thought they should have made 819 00:38:28,920 --> 00:38:31,560 Speaker 4: a bigger move at the trading deadline, but fine, got 820 00:38:31,600 --> 00:38:34,880 Speaker 4: some three point shooters. I like Dug and Robinson. I 821 00:38:35,000 --> 00:38:36,759 Speaker 4: like the other pieces. I thought maybe they could have 822 00:38:36,800 --> 00:38:39,680 Speaker 4: moved to Bias and got somebody else, but they figured, 823 00:38:39,719 --> 00:38:41,960 Speaker 4: you know what, we'll worry about all that next year 824 00:38:42,160 --> 00:38:43,959 Speaker 4: when the Pistols were in town, I'm at the game. 825 00:38:44,320 --> 00:38:47,000 Speaker 4: I sat courtside with Trajan Landen and talked to him 826 00:38:47,040 --> 00:38:48,120 Speaker 4: for a good fifteen minutes. 827 00:38:48,280 --> 00:38:49,040 Speaker 3: Trajan Landen, I. 828 00:38:49,040 --> 00:38:51,200 Speaker 4: Hate Duke, but there's always a Duke player that I like. 829 00:38:51,280 --> 00:38:53,880 Speaker 4: Trajan Landen was one of them. He's the Alaska assassin 830 00:38:53,880 --> 00:38:56,200 Speaker 4: coming out of high school. That guy knows exactly what 831 00:38:56,280 --> 00:38:57,920 Speaker 4: he's doing with that front office. 832 00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:00,680 Speaker 3: It's the culture change that they put it to it. 833 00:39:00,880 --> 00:39:03,640 Speaker 3: They've never seen anything like it. Honestly, they understand who 834 00:39:03,680 --> 00:39:03,920 Speaker 3: they are. 835 00:39:06,600 --> 00:39:08,960 Speaker 6: I think that that roster needed a little like they're 836 00:39:08,960 --> 00:39:11,319 Speaker 6: they're built the same way Oklahoma City was. They've hit 837 00:39:11,360 --> 00:39:14,239 Speaker 6: on their absolutely and they have the capital and move 838 00:39:14,280 --> 00:39:15,759 Speaker 6: around and move some of these guys around to get 839 00:39:15,840 --> 00:39:18,600 Speaker 6: Dario Serich and pieces like that. Like they're all they're 840 00:39:18,640 --> 00:39:21,240 Speaker 6: ahead of the game and they're not playing this swing 841 00:39:21,280 --> 00:39:23,520 Speaker 6: for the fence free agency, which has been shown to 842 00:39:23,640 --> 00:39:27,480 Speaker 6: just not work anymore under the new salary cap and 843 00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:31,000 Speaker 6: aprons and things like that. But they've worked internally and 844 00:39:31,040 --> 00:39:31,640 Speaker 6: it's worked. 845 00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:31,879 Speaker 3: Out for them. 846 00:39:31,920 --> 00:39:35,520 Speaker 4: But also too, they also they played basketball the right way. 847 00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:36,560 Speaker 3: I watched the interview the other night. 848 00:39:36,560 --> 00:39:38,600 Speaker 4: I've seen a hundred times before where Kobe talked about 849 00:39:38,719 --> 00:39:41,680 Speaker 4: accidental basketball, and we've all seen where teams the day 850 00:39:41,719 --> 00:39:44,600 Speaker 4: they do they play accidental basketball. They have a system, 851 00:39:44,840 --> 00:39:46,919 Speaker 4: they have a culture, they know who they are. Their 852 00:39:47,040 --> 00:39:49,400 Speaker 4: top rebounding team, the top five, and defense. They have 853 00:39:49,440 --> 00:39:52,319 Speaker 4: the number six ring offense, they're point differentials second in 854 00:39:52,360 --> 00:39:55,800 Speaker 4: the league. Like, this isn't luck This isn't a lucky season, 855 00:39:55,800 --> 00:39:58,880 Speaker 4: And this isn't Tatum being out built. It's a built, 856 00:39:58,880 --> 00:40:01,440 Speaker 4: strong rock. But they have have a culture. It's almost 857 00:40:01,520 --> 00:40:04,279 Speaker 4: like Oklahoma City. What's Oklahoma City hanging their hat on 858 00:40:04,520 --> 00:40:07,520 Speaker 4: their defense? They were number one or two in nine 859 00:40:07,560 --> 00:40:10,640 Speaker 4: of the top ten defensive categories last year and won 860 00:40:10,640 --> 00:40:13,400 Speaker 4: the championship. Guys, So that's what we're seeing with the Pistons. 861 00:40:13,440 --> 00:40:16,239 Speaker 4: But I've been sitting here telling y'all all year long, 862 00:40:16,440 --> 00:40:18,919 Speaker 4: was popping. They're coming out of the East, They're going 863 00:40:18,920 --> 00:40:20,880 Speaker 4: to the finals. Stop talking about the Knicks. 864 00:40:21,360 --> 00:40:24,360 Speaker 3: Well, give me the Knicks, and that's all we're talking 865 00:40:24,400 --> 00:40:27,760 Speaker 3: about is the Knicks. Why please? Because this is media's 866 00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:28,080 Speaker 3: New York. 867 00:40:28,080 --> 00:40:29,920 Speaker 2: All right, we got an NFL news coming up on 868 00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:39,920 Speaker 2: Fox Sports Sunday. Hi rolling along here on another big 869 00:40:40,000 --> 00:40:44,560 Speaker 2: sports Sunday that started off early today with USA men's 870 00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:48,520 Speaker 2: gold medal over Canada and over time. I still don't 871 00:40:48,560 --> 00:40:50,600 Speaker 2: like that three on three format, but it worked for 872 00:40:50,640 --> 00:40:53,440 Speaker 2: the USA, so it works for me. Once again, we're 873 00:40:53,440 --> 00:40:57,000 Speaker 2: in the Fox Sports radio studios really getting an opportunity 874 00:40:57,080 --> 00:40:59,759 Speaker 2: to check in on a number of sports. We talked 875 00:40:59,800 --> 00:41:02,760 Speaker 2: to NBA. We got some March madness right around the corner. 876 00:41:04,040 --> 00:41:06,800 Speaker 2: Spring training baseball right now getting way for the World 877 00:41:06,840 --> 00:41:11,080 Speaker 2: Baseball Classic, by the way, and I have to admit 878 00:41:11,880 --> 00:41:15,520 Speaker 2: a couple of things. I really have not gotten into 879 00:41:15,600 --> 00:41:19,360 Speaker 2: the World Baseball Classic, although certainly the big finish with 880 00:41:19,400 --> 00:41:22,879 Speaker 2: Shoheo Toni striking how Mike trout to end was a 881 00:41:22,920 --> 00:41:24,160 Speaker 2: spectacular moment. 882 00:41:25,120 --> 00:41:26,920 Speaker 3: But the bottom line. 883 00:41:26,640 --> 00:41:30,920 Speaker 2: Is is the World Baseball Classic is big time and 884 00:41:30,960 --> 00:41:34,759 Speaker 2: it has grown and more important than anything else. It's 885 00:41:34,800 --> 00:41:39,080 Speaker 2: growing in with a younger generation of baseball. We got 886 00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:42,640 Speaker 2: into this last week BJA, where you know, baseball really 887 00:41:42,640 --> 00:41:45,840 Speaker 2: has a golden opportunity right now. They're getting a new audience. 888 00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:46,799 Speaker 2: It's a TikTok sport. 889 00:41:46,880 --> 00:41:48,480 Speaker 3: I said, what do you call it? You call it tiktoks. 890 00:41:48,719 --> 00:41:50,560 Speaker 3: It's it's me coming a TikTok sport. 891 00:41:50,760 --> 00:41:55,320 Speaker 2: And a younger generation is discovering some of the things 892 00:41:55,320 --> 00:41:57,879 Speaker 2: that makes baseball, specially you and I are both big 893 00:41:57,920 --> 00:42:01,800 Speaker 2: baseball fans, So we're going to get into that a 894 00:42:01,840 --> 00:42:03,920 Speaker 2: little bit later on. I do want to get to 895 00:42:03,960 --> 00:42:06,080 Speaker 2: some NFL news because I knew how I could get 896 00:42:06,120 --> 00:42:06,960 Speaker 2: your goat a little bit. 897 00:42:07,040 --> 00:42:07,480 Speaker 3: I knew this. 898 00:42:07,560 --> 00:42:11,560 Speaker 2: I just I just I remember last week I bring 899 00:42:11,640 --> 00:42:15,640 Speaker 2: it okay, So the uh, there was article I read. 900 00:42:16,160 --> 00:42:17,200 Speaker 3: I didn't come up with this. 901 00:42:17,280 --> 00:42:20,759 Speaker 2: I read an article where they were talking about moves 902 00:42:21,560 --> 00:42:24,879 Speaker 2: that each NFL team should make, you know, as far 903 00:42:25,000 --> 00:42:28,359 Speaker 2: as free agency is concerned, and that also came down 904 00:42:28,400 --> 00:42:30,360 Speaker 2: to you know, releasing players. 905 00:42:30,880 --> 00:42:32,640 Speaker 3: Uh, your Miami Dolphins. 906 00:42:32,680 --> 00:42:35,640 Speaker 2: Their recommendation is it's time to turn the page onto 907 00:42:35,640 --> 00:42:39,319 Speaker 2: a tongue of I loa cut them loose. And then 908 00:42:39,360 --> 00:42:43,600 Speaker 2: I'm scrolling down and I see Minnesota Vikings. What move 909 00:42:43,640 --> 00:42:48,680 Speaker 2: should they make? And the move they should make is 910 00:42:50,880 --> 00:42:54,480 Speaker 2: cut it loose. JJ McCarthy is not the guy. And 911 00:42:54,520 --> 00:42:59,200 Speaker 2: then they went into detail that literally Kevin O'Connell had 912 00:42:59,239 --> 00:43:02,160 Speaker 2: a throat half the playbook because his quarterback was not 913 00:43:02,280 --> 00:43:07,360 Speaker 2: capable of actually executing the offense that Sam Darnold was 914 00:43:07,400 --> 00:43:10,040 Speaker 2: able to execute the year before. Now, I know he's 915 00:43:10,040 --> 00:43:12,400 Speaker 2: had injuries. That's a big part of it. I mean, 916 00:43:12,480 --> 00:43:14,480 Speaker 2: JJ McCarthy will never make in this league if he 917 00:43:14,520 --> 00:43:17,719 Speaker 2: can't stay on the field, right. But the fact that 918 00:43:17,760 --> 00:43:20,319 Speaker 2: there seems to be a certain level of frustration from 919 00:43:20,360 --> 00:43:24,000 Speaker 2: the coaching staff that he just can't execute what it 920 00:43:24,160 --> 00:43:24,920 Speaker 2: is that we're. 921 00:43:24,680 --> 00:43:25,239 Speaker 3: Trying to do. 922 00:43:25,560 --> 00:43:25,719 Speaker 1: Now. 923 00:43:25,760 --> 00:43:30,759 Speaker 2: My counter to that, I'll actually side with JJ McCarthy, is, 924 00:43:31,000 --> 00:43:34,040 Speaker 2: why are you asking him to do somebody else's offense? 925 00:43:34,719 --> 00:43:39,359 Speaker 2: The great coaches adapt their offenses to fit what it 926 00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:42,400 Speaker 2: is that their quarterback does well. I've always liked the 927 00:43:42,560 --> 00:43:46,160 Speaker 2: JJ McCarthy swag. I like the way he carries himself. 928 00:43:46,160 --> 00:43:49,799 Speaker 2: He has a certain you know this this stems from 929 00:43:49,880 --> 00:43:52,120 Speaker 2: a great collegiate career where you know, he wins the 930 00:43:52,200 --> 00:43:56,920 Speaker 2: national championship. But you've got to be able to execute 931 00:43:56,960 --> 00:43:59,480 Speaker 2: plays on the field. And unfortunately he was so wildly 932 00:43:59,520 --> 00:44:02,400 Speaker 2: inconsidered then, partly because he was in out of the lineup, 933 00:44:02,480 --> 00:44:06,719 Speaker 2: maybe because technically he was a rookie last year, but 934 00:44:07,080 --> 00:44:10,439 Speaker 2: there seems to be a growing frustration and maybe some 935 00:44:10,480 --> 00:44:13,759 Speaker 2: conversation going on behind the scenes because you have to 936 00:44:13,800 --> 00:44:16,799 Speaker 2: make the decision. You know, McCarthy next year is going 937 00:44:16,840 --> 00:44:19,360 Speaker 2: to be up for his rookie contract, you're going to extend. 938 00:44:19,360 --> 00:44:21,719 Speaker 2: This is the first round draft pick. If you cut 939 00:44:21,800 --> 00:44:24,640 Speaker 2: him loose now, maybe he gets an opportunity elsewhere that'll 940 00:44:24,640 --> 00:44:27,960 Speaker 2: fit him better than what they're trying to do in Minnesota. 941 00:44:28,920 --> 00:44:31,240 Speaker 4: The one thing that no one wants to talk about 942 00:44:31,280 --> 00:44:33,400 Speaker 4: and Bo, you and I spoke about this earlier in 943 00:44:33,400 --> 00:44:34,440 Speaker 4: this NFL season. 944 00:44:35,040 --> 00:44:38,239 Speaker 3: Why in the hell do we keep giving the. 945 00:44:38,280 --> 00:44:41,359 Speaker 4: Coach a pass here? You just said it yourself. Why 946 00:44:41,360 --> 00:44:43,719 Speaker 4: don't you tailor the offense around to what you have? 947 00:44:44,239 --> 00:44:46,920 Speaker 4: And even trying to compare him to Sam Donald? So 948 00:44:46,960 --> 00:44:48,880 Speaker 4: a guy in his first year, you're compared, So what's 949 00:44:48,920 --> 00:44:51,640 Speaker 4: Sam Donald's eighth ninth year in the league. So Sam 950 00:44:51,680 --> 00:44:55,440 Speaker 4: Donald's been around, Like Sam Donald's been around, He's actually 951 00:44:55,520 --> 00:44:58,080 Speaker 4: would be listed as a VET, right if you said, 952 00:44:58,120 --> 00:44:59,360 Speaker 4: is the event, Yeah, he's a VET. You've been in 953 00:44:59,480 --> 00:45:02,279 Speaker 4: league eight nine years. The average NFL lifespan is two 954 00:45:02,280 --> 00:45:04,040 Speaker 4: and a half to three seasons. You make it to 955 00:45:04,080 --> 00:45:07,239 Speaker 4: eight or nine your vet, it's this rookie year. Now 956 00:45:07,280 --> 00:45:09,200 Speaker 4: they want to come up with these stories. Well, we 957 00:45:09,239 --> 00:45:11,600 Speaker 4: had to throw our half the playbook. Okay, so you 958 00:45:11,600 --> 00:45:13,879 Speaker 4: have to throw some of the plays, but won't you You 959 00:45:13,840 --> 00:45:15,839 Speaker 4: didn't have any other plays you could put in, so 960 00:45:15,920 --> 00:45:17,200 Speaker 4: you have to get rid of places, but you don't 961 00:45:17,239 --> 00:45:19,279 Speaker 4: have other plays you can you can you can use 962 00:45:19,400 --> 00:45:20,480 Speaker 4: like that doesn't make sense to me. 963 00:45:20,480 --> 00:45:22,680 Speaker 3: That didn't sound like a great coaching job that you're. 964 00:45:22,480 --> 00:45:23,840 Speaker 4: Doing, because if I got to get rid of some 965 00:45:23,840 --> 00:45:26,160 Speaker 4: plays for a guy, then then I gotta come up 966 00:45:26,160 --> 00:45:27,800 Speaker 4: with other plays that this guy can do. I can't 967 00:45:27,800 --> 00:45:30,160 Speaker 4: just take half the playbook away, say okay, deal with 968 00:45:30,200 --> 00:45:32,080 Speaker 4: this half of the playbook. I don't know how much 969 00:45:32,160 --> 00:45:33,000 Speaker 4: legitimacy is. 970 00:45:32,960 --> 00:45:33,359 Speaker 3: To the story. 971 00:45:33,400 --> 00:45:35,359 Speaker 4: I really don't care, to be honest, I don't care 972 00:45:35,640 --> 00:45:38,680 Speaker 4: because if we're in the world of where we've done 973 00:45:38,680 --> 00:45:42,000 Speaker 4: this already. Ball once again, we talked about Caleb Williams 974 00:45:42,000 --> 00:45:44,680 Speaker 4: and this rookie year after what week seven? We're all 975 00:45:44,680 --> 00:45:47,000 Speaker 4: out on Kayla Woods. Oh oh, he can't play Kayla. Wait, 976 00:45:47,000 --> 00:45:49,520 Speaker 4: he's gonna be a bus Oh really? Really? 977 00:45:49,600 --> 00:45:51,879 Speaker 3: Okay, how'd that work out for me? And the same 978 00:45:51,880 --> 00:45:52,680 Speaker 3: thing about Drake May. 979 00:45:52,880 --> 00:45:54,839 Speaker 4: Drake May just played in the Super Bowl, and I'm 980 00:45:54,840 --> 00:45:57,080 Speaker 4: not sold on Drake May, but he did just play 981 00:45:57,120 --> 00:45:58,759 Speaker 4: the damn super Bowl. People want to get rid of 982 00:45:58,760 --> 00:46:00,480 Speaker 4: the guy now you got people want to get rid 983 00:46:00,520 --> 00:46:02,799 Speaker 4: of Jaden Daniels. Well, Jadon Daniels was hurt this year. 984 00:46:02,840 --> 00:46:06,680 Speaker 4: Guys like, we gotta stop the sports talk style of 985 00:46:08,160 --> 00:46:11,120 Speaker 4: every day like every day we're trying to say who's 986 00:46:11,160 --> 00:46:13,360 Speaker 4: the best and who's this We went through this Jackson 987 00:46:13,400 --> 00:46:15,520 Speaker 4: Smith and Jim But now I believe I should be 988 00:46:15,600 --> 00:46:18,960 Speaker 4: the highest paid receiver off of one year. Dog, you 989 00:46:18,960 --> 00:46:20,640 Speaker 4: don't get to be the highest paid receiver. 990 00:46:20,760 --> 00:46:21,760 Speaker 3: Now I get. 991 00:46:21,640 --> 00:46:24,640 Speaker 4: Next man up type mentality, But you don't have deserve 992 00:46:24,680 --> 00:46:27,120 Speaker 4: to be the highest paid receiver off of one year 993 00:46:27,160 --> 00:46:29,719 Speaker 4: when Justin Jefferson and Jamar Chase are better than you. 994 00:46:29,719 --> 00:46:32,160 Speaker 4: They're the number one two receivers in the league. Pooking 995 00:46:32,200 --> 00:46:34,480 Speaker 4: the coup too. Like Dog, you're not the best receiver 996 00:46:34,520 --> 00:46:36,319 Speaker 4: in the league. You had the best season this year. 997 00:46:36,320 --> 00:46:38,440 Speaker 4: You say the same thing about Cooper Cup, Right, Cooper 998 00:46:38,480 --> 00:46:41,320 Speaker 4: Cup had that one great year, right one MVP in 999 00:46:41,360 --> 00:46:44,360 Speaker 4: the Super Bowl and got paid Aton got paid. 1000 00:46:44,600 --> 00:46:46,799 Speaker 3: So but how that's hurt? How that work out? 1001 00:46:46,800 --> 00:46:49,359 Speaker 4: Though? So when you start these stories in the way 1002 00:46:49,440 --> 00:46:52,399 Speaker 4: we every year, it's like one player we want gone 1003 00:46:52,440 --> 00:46:56,000 Speaker 4: and stuff.

I've won already big awards. I've 1378 01:02:42,120 --> 01:02:43,280 Speaker 3: won four MVP Awards. 1379 01:02:43,360 --> 01:02:47,040 Speaker 2: Only one guy's won more, and that's Barry Bonds, all unanimous, 1380 01:02:47,080 --> 01:02:49,520 Speaker 2: by the way.

I want to win a 1383 01:02:53,840 --> 01:02:54,600 Speaker 2: cy Young Award. 1384 01:02:54,640 --> 01:02:57,080 Speaker 4: It won't be this year, though, he why not, you 1385 01:02:57,080 --> 01:02:58,480 Speaker 4: know he's not gonna win it this year. I just 1386 01:02:58,480 --> 01:03:00,400 Speaker 4: don't feel it. I don't. I don't think's gonna win 1387 01:03:00,400 --> 01:03:02,440 Speaker 4: the Saw Young Award. I know this year, I think 1388 01:03:02,480 --> 01:03:04,880 Speaker 4: I'm with Scott pretty much does whatever he the over 1389 01:03:04,960 --> 01:03:07,200 Speaker 4: unders on one, one o, three and a half. Like 1390 01:03:07,240 --> 01:03:08,960 Speaker 4: I said, I like and and I also think the 1391 01:03:09,040 --> 01:03:10,840 Speaker 4: National League will be a little tougher this year than 1392 01:03:10,840 --> 01:03:12,720 Speaker 4: it was last year. I know the METSA spent a 1393 01:03:12,720 --> 01:03:14,680 Speaker 4: bunch of money and trying to really revamp their team 1394 01:03:15,000 --> 01:03:18,840 Speaker 4: and do some things. I mean, so you know what 1395 01:03:18,880 --> 01:03:19,520 Speaker 4: the knock is. 1396 01:03:19,560 --> 01:03:23,040 Speaker 2: Right now, You've got Lindor obviously, and he got Soto 1397 01:03:23,240 --> 01:03:26,240 Speaker 2: right And these are great players, no question about it. 1398 01:03:26,280 --> 01:03:28,720 Speaker 2: They're not clubhouse guys. That's the buzz. They're just not 1399 01:03:28,760 --> 01:03:30,880 Speaker 2: clubhouse guys. They're great players. 1400 01:03:31,400 --> 01:03:31,600 Speaker 8: You know. 1401 01:03:32,120 --> 01:03:34,120 Speaker 2: The Sodo thing, I don't know what to make of him. 1402 01:03:34,160 --> 01:03:36,640 Speaker 2: He's he walks way too much for my taste. I 1403 01:03:36,680 --> 01:03:37,720 Speaker 2: mean I saw the numbers. 1404 01:03:37,760 --> 01:03:40,400 Speaker 4: I mean, guy gets on, he walks. I get you, 1405 01:03:40,440 --> 01:03:42,160 Speaker 4: he he gets on. I think if you walk, you 1406 01:03:42,240 --> 01:03:43,840 Speaker 4: get on. You just gotta get on. 1407 01:03:44,200 --> 01:03:46,040 Speaker 3: It's the guys behind you that need to come and 1408 01:03:46,080 --> 01:03:47,120 Speaker 3: push you around the base. 1409 01:03:47,240 --> 01:03:49,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, but not when you're making a seven hundred million 1410 01:03:49,360 --> 01:03:52,560 Speaker 2: dollar contract. I want, Well, you're making the you're making show. 1411 01:03:52,600 --> 01:03:56,120 Speaker 3: Hay ton of money. Yeah, he's not show hey ton. Yeah. 1412 01:03:56,160 --> 01:03:58,960 Speaker 4: I just think one twenty is way his way out. 1413 01:03:59,160 --> 01:04:01,320 Speaker 4: I think that's I think that's it is conceivable if 1414 01:04:01,360 --> 01:04:04,920 Speaker 4: they stay healthy. So when there's well, that's a big yfa. 1415 01:04:05,000 --> 01:04:07,480 Speaker 4: They never they never do right. So that's the thing. 1416 01:04:07,520 --> 01:04:09,760 Speaker 4: They never do well. But they could still win it. 1417 01:04:09,800 --> 01:04:11,640 Speaker 8: But they're like the one team that can manage it. 1418 01:04:11,800 --> 01:04:12,000 Speaker 4: Right. 1419 01:04:12,120 --> 01:04:14,280 Speaker 2: You know what's always amazing about that Seattle team. The 1420 01:04:14,320 --> 01:04:17,720 Speaker 2: one hundred and sixteen games that was after a Rod, 1421 01:04:18,400 --> 01:04:23,400 Speaker 2: after Griff after j after Randy Johnson Jr. They were 1422 01:04:23,800 --> 01:04:28,800 Speaker 2: seventy games over five hundred. That was Brett Boone. How 1423 01:04:28,800 --> 01:04:29,760 Speaker 2: far they get dangerous? 1424 01:04:30,320 --> 01:04:32,439 Speaker 3: They lost to the Yankees and the Alcs. 1425 01:04:32,520 --> 01:04:34,400 Speaker 2: All right, let's find out what it's trending right now. 1426 01:04:35,040 --> 01:04:38,160 Speaker 2: Let's see if Martin's got a little take on. So 1427 01:04:38,240 --> 01:04:41,040 Speaker 2: Martin over under one hundred and three and a half 1428 01:04:41,080 --> 01:04:44,840 Speaker 2: for Dodgers wins in twenty twenty six over or under 1429 01:04:44,840 --> 01:04:45,439 Speaker 2: win under? 1430 01:04:46,200 --> 01:04:47,480 Speaker 3: Everyone's under why. 1431 01:04:48,240 --> 01:04:53,240 Speaker 1: Because there were multiple I mean, was the seventeen inning 1432 01:04:53,360 --> 01:04:56,120 Speaker 1: game in the World Series that the Dodgers had to 1433 01:04:56,200 --> 01:05:00,720 Speaker 1: win when like they're they needed every sing armed that 1434 01:05:00,760 --> 01:05:02,919 Speaker 1: they had in the to the point that I don't 1435 01:05:02,920 --> 01:05:04,680 Speaker 1: even remember the guys that were coming out of the 1436 01:05:04,680 --> 01:05:05,480 Speaker 1: back of the bullpen. 1437 01:05:05,640 --> 01:05:07,480 Speaker 2: Well, they had that one guy came in into that 1438 01:05:07,720 --> 01:05:09,200 Speaker 2: endless game that we never. 1439 01:05:09,080 --> 01:05:09,760 Speaker 3: Heard from a game. 1440 01:05:09,840 --> 01:05:12,120 Speaker 2: I've already forgotten the guy there, you. 1441 01:05:12,480 --> 01:05:15,000 Speaker 1: See exactly, and that guy came out and he was 1442 01:05:15,000 --> 01:05:20,479 Speaker 1: a legend. Does every single player. So I imagine very much 1443 01:05:20,560 --> 01:05:23,760 Speaker 1: like Michigan basketball isn't worried about losing their second game 1444 01:05:24,360 --> 01:05:26,440 Speaker 1: of the season in February, they're not going to be 1445 01:05:26,520 --> 01:05:29,840 Speaker 1: worried about losing their I don't know the equivalent. 1446 01:05:29,440 --> 01:05:32,400 Speaker 3: Of that, but yeah, they're like, you are a little upset 1447 01:05:32,600 --> 01:05:33,280 Speaker 3: last yesterday. 1448 01:05:33,320 --> 01:05:35,040 Speaker 4: I think I agree with Martin that I don't think 1449 01:05:35,960 --> 01:05:37,680 Speaker 4: mar we've done enough radio. You know how I look 1450 01:05:37,720 --> 01:05:40,920 Speaker 4: at it. Championship type teams once you get they're back 1451 01:05:40,960 --> 01:05:43,000 Speaker 4: to back, man, like, they don't they don't need the 1452 01:05:43,040 --> 01:05:48,280 Speaker 4: best record. Let's get the October virtually mostly healthy, and 1453 01:05:48,320 --> 01:05:51,000 Speaker 4: everybody still got to come through us. You some of 1454 01:05:51,040 --> 01:05:53,400 Speaker 4: the Chase one hundred and twenty wins have that. 1455 01:05:53,480 --> 01:05:55,720 Speaker 1: The only reason the Dodgs, you shouldn't be able to 1456 01:05:55,760 --> 01:05:58,480 Speaker 1: walk through the National League postseason if if they have 1457 01:05:58,680 --> 01:06:02,120 Speaker 1: four or five injuries at one position at one time. Right, 1458 01:06:02,200 --> 01:06:04,840 Speaker 1: So let's not do that right, right, right, If we 1459 01:06:04,880 --> 01:06:08,520 Speaker 1: don't lose two infielders an outfielder two starting to pictures, 1460 01:06:09,160 --> 01:06:11,960 Speaker 1: well we'll be okay. Now I do have to take 1461 01:06:12,040 --> 01:06:15,640 Speaker 1: umbers with something, he said, Steve, Yes, how many walks 1462 01:06:15,720 --> 01:06:18,840 Speaker 1: is too many walks? How many walks is too many walks? 1463 01:06:18,880 --> 01:06:19,400 Speaker 4: You get on? 1464 01:06:19,640 --> 01:06:21,680 Speaker 3: I want when I have a guy. 1465 01:06:22,960 --> 01:06:26,520 Speaker 2: Okay, look at the Barry Bond situation was extreme, right, 1466 01:06:27,280 --> 01:06:29,840 Speaker 2: I mean he was being walked over two hundred, he 1467 01:06:29,880 --> 01:06:31,400 Speaker 2: had one hundred and twenty intentional watching. 1468 01:06:31,480 --> 01:06:35,320 Speaker 1: How much was that too many walks? 1469 01:06:35,360 --> 01:06:36,080 Speaker 3: I guess I felt. 1470 01:06:36,160 --> 01:06:38,680 Speaker 2: I guess the thing was I was in San Diego 1471 01:06:38,760 --> 01:06:40,760 Speaker 2: and they got Sota and I watched him, and I'm 1472 01:06:40,800 --> 01:06:43,520 Speaker 2: sort of like underwhelmed by this guy. I mean, I 1473 01:06:43,920 --> 01:06:45,520 Speaker 2: know you look at the numbers at the end of 1474 01:06:45,560 --> 01:06:49,200 Speaker 2: the year, but it just didn't seem like he captured 1475 01:06:49,200 --> 01:06:51,400 Speaker 2: the moment, like what there were times when he was 1476 01:06:51,480 --> 01:06:54,880 Speaker 2: at the plate, games on the line, and he's not 1477 01:06:55,600 --> 01:06:56,240 Speaker 2: the guy. 1478 01:06:56,600 --> 01:06:59,440 Speaker 1: Okay, I can understand that, But what you said is 1479 01:07:00,160 --> 01:07:02,360 Speaker 1: he walks. He walks too much from my liking, and 1480 01:07:02,480 --> 01:07:05,280 Speaker 1: uh and uh, and I just that's like saying the 1481 01:07:05,320 --> 01:07:07,160 Speaker 1: guy lays the ball up too much for me. 1482 01:07:07,400 --> 01:07:12,320 Speaker 2: He's like, you cannot convince me that a walk is 1483 01:07:12,360 --> 01:07:13,160 Speaker 2: the same as a hit. 1484 01:07:13,200 --> 01:07:15,280 Speaker 3: The walk is not the same. Walk is not the same. 1485 01:07:15,960 --> 01:07:19,560 Speaker 3: People trying to play this the moneyball thing is like, well, 1486 01:07:19,800 --> 01:07:21,320 Speaker 3: wash as good as a hit. It's not. 1487 01:07:22,240 --> 01:07:24,840 Speaker 1: No, it's just a walk is not as good. It's 1488 01:07:24,880 --> 01:07:27,000 Speaker 1: better than a lot of other things that if. 1489 01:07:26,920 --> 01:07:28,680 Speaker 3: You walk a lot of. To me, it also shows 1490 01:07:28,680 --> 01:07:30,640 Speaker 3: that you're a very smart hitter at the plate. 1491 01:07:30,760 --> 01:07:33,520 Speaker 4: You got a great eye. You're not striking out like 1492 01:07:33,560 --> 01:07:34,200 Speaker 4: you're getting on. 1493 01:07:34,480 --> 01:07:35,240 Speaker 3: I want hits. 1494 01:07:36,040 --> 01:07:39,840 Speaker 4: I just need. I don't I get on because. 1495 01:07:39,520 --> 01:07:40,479 Speaker 3: I want I want. 1496 01:07:40,560 --> 01:07:43,640 Speaker 2: Guy, you know, Steve Garby had six years of at 1497 01:07:43,680 --> 01:07:46,040 Speaker 2: least twitter hits, but you know that they downgrade him, 1498 01:07:46,120 --> 01:07:48,640 Speaker 2: well he didn't walk a lot.

When he's like going and he's ready and 1670 01:15:31,960 --> 01:15:35,000 Speaker 1: he's like when he came out against it was in 1671 01:15:35,160 --> 01:15:36,840 Speaker 1: l A and he was like when you saw him 1672 01:15:36,840 --> 01:15:38,439 Speaker 1: in the purple jerseys and he came out, I said, 1673 01:15:38,520 --> 01:15:40,559 Speaker 1: Kate had forty. I knew I was going for forty. Okay, 1674 01:15:40,640 --> 01:15:43,280 Speaker 1: it was like Anthony Edwards just doing that. What Like 1675 01:15:43,400 --> 01:15:46,160 Speaker 1: that's a tough watch. I mean, like, to me, that's 1676 01:15:46,200 --> 01:15:47,080 Speaker 1: one of the best tickets to. 1677 01:15:47,080 --> 01:15:49,000 Speaker 2: Basket all right, so let's take Wemby out of the mill. 1678 01:15:49,080 --> 01:15:52,240 Speaker 1: I'm not because Wemby I see people, it's it's like, 1679 01:15:52,320 --> 01:15:54,040 Speaker 1: I don't I've never seen him do a lot of 1680 01:15:54,040 --> 01:15:56,400 Speaker 1: this stuff. I've never seen anybody do this stuff before, 1681 01:15:56,640 --> 01:15:57,360 Speaker 1: so it makes it different. 1682 01:15:57,400 --> 01:15:59,880 Speaker 2: Okay, on the other side, I think then past Wemby. 1683 01:16:00,000 --> 01:16:02,719 Speaker 2: All right, so we got Martinez with and everybody else. 1684 01:16:02,560 --> 01:16:04,360 Speaker 3: On the We'll come back because I want I want 1685 01:16:04,400 --> 01:16:05,200 Speaker 3: to say something about anyone. 1686 01:16:05,280 --> 01:16:08,680 Speaker 2: Okay, all right, this is Fox Sports Sunday, Harvin and 1687 01:16:08,760 --> 01:16:11,799 Speaker 2: Husky here, Fox Sports Sunday. We're in the Fox Sports 1688 01:16:11,960 --> 01:16:17,200 Speaker 2: Radio studios. By the way, you mentioned the San Antonio 1689 01:16:17,280 --> 01:16:20,240 Speaker 2: Detroit NBA Finals. I mean right now as we sit here, 1690 01:16:20,960 --> 01:16:23,320 Speaker 2: that would make a lot of sense because even though 1691 01:16:23,320 --> 01:16:26,559 Speaker 2: OKC still has the best record on the West, they've 1692 01:16:26,560 --> 01:16:29,360 Speaker 2: lost what three times to San Antonio. They they don't 1693 01:16:29,400 --> 01:16:33,439 Speaker 2: match up well against San Antonio. By the way, if 1694 01:16:33,479 --> 01:16:37,519 Speaker 2: it is a Spurs Pistons final, that will guarantee our 1695 01:16:37,640 --> 01:16:40,599 Speaker 2: eighth different winner of an NBA title over the last 1696 01:16:40,600 --> 01:16:43,160 Speaker 2: eight years. And you know again, I am one of 1697 01:16:43,200 --> 01:16:46,160 Speaker 2: those that believes, not just in a team sport, an 1698 01:16:46,200 --> 01:16:49,360 Speaker 2: individual sport, having a dominant player is a good thing, 1699 01:16:49,560 --> 01:16:53,680 Speaker 2: of course, because it creates upset. There's nothing more appealing 1700 01:16:53,800 --> 01:16:58,519 Speaker 2: in sports than upset. And if you have parody, you 1701 01:16:58,560 --> 01:17:03,240 Speaker 2: eliminate upset. Everybody's the same, then there is no upset. 1702 01:17:03,439 --> 01:17:09,960 Speaker 2: So but at that point the NBA, you know, I again, 1703 01:17:10,160 --> 01:17:13,800 Speaker 2: I'm watching Kendrick Perkins. He did this, this, this, like 1704 01:17:14,080 --> 01:17:17,360 Speaker 2: he did this the other day, and I thought Stephen A. 1705 01:17:17,439 --> 01:17:20,040 Speaker 3: Was gonna lose his mind. He couldn't believe it. The 1706 01:17:20,200 --> 01:17:22,680 Speaker 3: very similar question, what we're talking about, who is the 1707 01:17:22,760 --> 01:17:23,920 Speaker 3: must watch guy? Right? 1708 01:17:24,320 --> 01:17:26,719 Speaker 2: And everybody there was thinking what we are thinking. Wimby, 1709 01:17:27,040 --> 01:17:29,760 Speaker 2: you know who? He had one too, number two, he 1710 01:17:29,760 --> 01:17:31,719 Speaker 2: had Steph Curry, number one, Lebron James. 1711 01:17:32,040 --> 01:17:35,360 Speaker 3: All right, yeah, yeah, Okay, anyway. 1712 01:17:35,000 --> 01:17:37,720 Speaker 2: I go, first of all, is there any Laker fan 1713 01:17:37,800 --> 01:17:40,000 Speaker 2: that goes the game saying the guy I want to 1714 01:17:40,040 --> 01:17:41,120 Speaker 2: see more than any other? 1715 01:17:41,680 --> 01:17:43,040 Speaker 3: I'm gonna ask this was. 1716 01:17:43,000 --> 01:17:43,960 Speaker 8: This like ten years ago. 1717 01:17:44,160 --> 01:17:46,599 Speaker 4: I'm talking about his life day night the seventy seven 1718 01:17:46,600 --> 01:17:48,080 Speaker 4: I was just there for the Clipper game, covering the 1719 01:17:48,080 --> 01:17:50,759 Speaker 4: game the seventy seven Jerseys Dwarf. 1720 01:17:50,920 --> 01:17:53,559 Speaker 2: Okay, would you say there are as many people that 1721 01:17:53,640 --> 01:17:57,880 Speaker 2: would actually say I'm here to watch Austin Reeves than 1722 01:17:58,000 --> 01:18:00,959 Speaker 2: Lebron jar. 1723 01:18:00,160 --> 01:18:01,840 Speaker 3: Of fifteen jerseys and starting nothing. 1724 01:18:01,840 --> 01:18:03,559 Speaker 6: I mean, at this point, if you're saying you're there 1725 01:18:03,560 --> 01:18:05,760 Speaker 6: to watch Lebron James, is probably because you're know you're 1726 01:18:05,840 --> 01:18:08,080 Speaker 6: running out of time to see le playing. 1727 01:18:08,479 --> 01:18:10,400 Speaker 3: You're one of those Lebron fan guy. 1728 01:18:10,520 --> 01:18:12,400 Speaker 6: Yeah, but I'm just saying, I'm just saying taking fans 1729 01:18:12,400 --> 01:18:14,760 Speaker 6: out of the equation.

So all right, 1816 01:21:59,640 --> 01:22:01,280 Speaker 3: so we talked some NBA. 1817 01:22:01,280 --> 01:22:04,120 Speaker 2: I want to get back to the National Football League 1818 01:22:04,600 --> 01:22:08,519 Speaker 2: because when we talk about free agency, there's a process here, 1819 01:22:08,600 --> 01:22:11,639 Speaker 2: right And by the way, before we get. 1820 01:22:11,479 --> 01:22:13,559 Speaker 3: To all that, I have to say this. 1821 01:22:16,080 --> 01:22:21,000 Speaker 2: The Rondel Moore story is a tragedy, sad and you know, 1822 01:22:21,240 --> 01:22:25,960 Speaker 2: I as someone that worked in the league and getting 1823 01:22:26,000 --> 01:22:33,040 Speaker 2: to understand the mentality of certain athletes, and you know, 1824 01:22:33,400 --> 01:22:36,040 Speaker 2: I don't know what was going on with Rondel Moore. 1825 01:22:36,200 --> 01:22:36,960 Speaker 3: I do know this. 1826 01:22:37,720 --> 01:22:40,280 Speaker 2: His freshman year Purdue was one of the most spectacular 1827 01:22:40,320 --> 01:22:45,640 Speaker 2: freshman years in college football history. Had some injuries, but 1828 01:22:45,800 --> 01:22:48,720 Speaker 2: the NFL size talent second round pick had some good 1829 01:22:48,800 --> 01:22:53,200 Speaker 2: years with Arizona. Versatile player that got traded to Atlanta, 1830 01:22:53,280 --> 01:22:55,400 Speaker 2: got hurt in the preseason, missed the year, and then 1831 01:22:55,400 --> 01:22:57,400 Speaker 2: he signed with Minnesota this year, got hurt in the 1832 01:22:57,439 --> 01:23:01,880 Speaker 2: preseason again, and now he's gone at age twenty five. 1833 01:23:01,920 --> 01:23:05,719 Speaker 2: And it's just it's hard. It really really is hard. 1834 01:23:05,800 --> 01:23:09,599 Speaker 2: The you know, when you talk about athletes in general, 1835 01:23:09,640 --> 01:23:13,559 Speaker 2: and this is not everyone because obviously everyone is different, 1836 01:23:13,640 --> 01:23:15,600 Speaker 2: but there are certain athletes. 1837 01:23:17,200 --> 01:23:24,559 Speaker 3: That get so you know, their self worth is based 1838 01:23:24,600 --> 01:23:28,479 Speaker 3: on their athletic achievements, right, and. 1839 01:23:29,960 --> 01:23:33,519 Speaker 2: It's not even too extreme. I mean, just so many 1840 01:23:33,640 --> 01:23:38,920 Speaker 2: lives get derailed after their athletic careers are over. I mean, 1841 01:23:38,920 --> 01:23:41,519 Speaker 2: we've seen it time and again and it's just it's 1842 01:23:41,560 --> 01:23:44,760 Speaker 2: really really difficult. And I will say this just for 1843 01:23:44,800 --> 01:23:47,240 Speaker 2: the NFL, and I know other sports do it at all. 1844 01:23:47,280 --> 01:23:48,240 Speaker 3: They do a. 1845 01:23:48,200 --> 01:23:51,680 Speaker 2: Lot of counseling. They do, I mean will they will 1846 01:23:51,680 --> 01:23:55,559 Speaker 2: do a lot of counseling from day one, basically telling 1847 01:23:55,880 --> 01:23:59,440 Speaker 2: these athletes in their early twenties and you're making millions 1848 01:23:59,520 --> 01:24:02,880 Speaker 2: and you've had all this adulation since your high school days, 1849 01:24:02,960 --> 01:24:05,880 Speaker 2: you know, you've been pampered and everything else, that it's 1850 01:24:06,120 --> 01:24:09,400 Speaker 2: this is going to end. I mean, if you're lucky 1851 01:24:09,880 --> 01:24:12,360 Speaker 2: and you can carve out a you know, five six 1852 01:24:12,439 --> 01:24:15,599 Speaker 2: year career in the NFL, you're still not even thirty 1853 01:24:15,680 --> 01:24:18,200 Speaker 2: years old, and you've got to figure out the rest 1854 01:24:18,240 --> 01:24:18,679 Speaker 2: of your life. 1855 01:24:18,760 --> 01:24:20,240 Speaker 3: And now money is not going to last yet and 1856 01:24:20,320 --> 01:24:21,000 Speaker 3: the money. 1857 01:24:20,760 --> 01:24:23,799 Speaker 2: Is let the money just ends. Okay, you make millions 1858 01:24:23,840 --> 01:24:27,280 Speaker 2: and now you're making zero. And you know, it was 1859 01:24:27,360 --> 01:24:29,640 Speaker 2: different way back in the day, way back in the 1860 01:24:29,720 --> 01:24:33,759 Speaker 2: day before money entered the scene. In order to live, 1861 01:24:34,479 --> 01:24:37,280 Speaker 2: you had off season jobs.

You know, they had the Palisades fires, so 2066 01:34:41,880 --> 01:34:44,080 Speaker 2: last year they had to move the tournament down to 2067 01:34:44,080 --> 01:34:45,040 Speaker 2: Torrey Pines. 2068 01:34:44,720 --> 01:34:47,200 Speaker 3: And San diegoing to to be able to get the 2069 01:34:47,200 --> 01:34:47,840 Speaker 3: tournament back. 2070 01:34:47,840 --> 01:34:50,439 Speaker 2: By the way, Tiger Woods, who is the host of 2071 01:34:50,479 --> 01:34:56,840 Speaker 2: this tournament, and he is strongly hinting that you could 2072 01:34:56,840 --> 01:34:58,360 Speaker 2: see him out of Augusta National. 2073 01:34:58,520 --> 01:34:59,160 Speaker 3: We should. 2074 01:34:59,439 --> 01:35:02,800 Speaker 2: And here's the one thing about Tiger that I never 2075 01:35:02,920 --> 01:35:06,720 Speaker 2: really thought, because you know, Jack Nicholas hung around for 2076 01:35:06,800 --> 01:35:10,680 Speaker 2: several years, but there was a point where Jack's mentality was, 2077 01:35:10,720 --> 01:35:13,920 Speaker 2: if I'm not really competitive, then I'll bail. And he 2078 01:35:13,960 --> 01:35:16,640 Speaker 2: did one final swan Song and his final major was 2079 01:35:16,640 --> 01:35:20,320 Speaker 2: out at Saint Andrews for the Open Championship. And I 2080 01:35:20,400 --> 01:35:22,519 Speaker 2: never thought that, you know, Tiger would be one of 2081 01:35:22,520 --> 01:35:25,599 Speaker 2: those guys either. I mean, is there you know Arnold 2082 01:35:25,600 --> 01:35:28,040 Speaker 2: Palmer was very comfortable with this. He missed the cut 2083 01:35:28,080 --> 01:35:31,439 Speaker 2: his last thirty Masters. He had no probably would be ceremonial, right, 2084 01:35:31,600 --> 01:35:33,800 Speaker 2: he played a couple of rounds. The fans love him 2085 01:35:34,280 --> 01:35:36,519 Speaker 2: and he'd be good with that. I've never seen he 2086 01:35:36,560 --> 01:35:39,679 Speaker 2: walk the course. Yeah, but Tiger, I don't see Tiger 2087 01:35:39,760 --> 01:35:44,880 Speaker 2: doing that. Not as a ceremonial guy. No, not to 2088 01:35:44,960 --> 01:35:45,519 Speaker 2: Arnold Palmer. 2089 01:35:45,520 --> 01:35:46,360 Speaker 3: But he's got to have. 2090 01:35:46,280 --> 01:35:48,960 Speaker 2: A mentality that I can be competitive. 2091 01:35:49,800 --> 01:35:51,360 Speaker 3: Why he's not going to go out there and go 2092 01:35:51,439 --> 01:35:53,639 Speaker 3: eighty eighty at the at the Masters. 2093 01:35:53,680 --> 01:35:55,000 Speaker 4: No, I'm not going to go out there and go 2094 01:35:55,040 --> 01:35:57,200 Speaker 4: eighty eighty. But he's also going out there and gone 2095 01:35:57,840 --> 01:36:00,080 Speaker 4: seventy six, seventy eight, like we've seen that. 2096 01:36:00,360 --> 01:36:02,360 Speaker 2: But after year after year after year he would do that. 2097 01:36:02,680 --> 01:36:06,040 Speaker 4: No, not year after year after year. But I do 2098 01:36:06,120 --> 01:36:09,839 Speaker 4: think Tiger still means enough to the sport a golf. 2099 01:36:09,960 --> 01:36:11,040 Speaker 2: There's no question about that. 2100 01:36:11,400 --> 01:36:12,320 Speaker 4: He needs he me. 2101 01:36:12,640 --> 01:36:15,559 Speaker 3: I put it to you like this, he shows up 2102 01:36:15,560 --> 01:36:16,240 Speaker 3: at Augusta. 2103 01:36:17,520 --> 01:36:20,599 Speaker 4: I normally watch Augusta, but I'll watch a whole damn 2104 01:36:20,640 --> 01:36:24,200 Speaker 4: lot more if Tiger shows up to Augusta. I want 2105 01:36:24,240 --> 01:36:27,400 Speaker 4: to know. I want to know his group, and I'll 2106 01:36:27,439 --> 01:36:30,919 Speaker 4: start early that morning, a time, whatever time, and I can't, 2107 01:36:31,000 --> 01:36:34,280 Speaker 4: I'll buy the I'll buy the streaming service to see 2108 01:36:34,320 --> 01:36:37,479 Speaker 4: his holes on. I don't care if Tiger shows up. 2109 01:36:37,520 --> 01:36:40,920 Speaker 2: You're okay watching Tiger go seventy five seventy five? 2110 01:36:41,040 --> 01:36:41,360 Speaker 4: Why not? 2111 01:36:41,600 --> 01:36:44,040 Speaker 3: What I mean, what does he have to prove to me? Well, 2112 01:36:44,080 --> 01:36:45,800 Speaker 3: he has nothing to prove. That's the whole point. 2113 01:36:45,960 --> 01:36:48,519 Speaker 4: Yeah, I would just want to I just want what 2114 01:36:48,760 --> 01:36:49,760 Speaker 4: did you want to see him? 2115 01:36:49,880 --> 01:36:52,120 Speaker 3: And we deserve to see Jordan in the Wizards uniform. 2116 01:36:52,160 --> 01:36:54,200 Speaker 4: But he gave us a fifty five game, a fifty 2117 01:36:54,280 --> 01:36:57,719 Speaker 4: three game, a fifty four game, a first round exit 2118 01:36:57,760 --> 01:36:59,559 Speaker 4: in the playoffs to the Nets, but a chase down 2119 01:36:59,600 --> 01:37:03,000 Speaker 4: block on cherry Kittles, and like, I mean, do you 2120 01:37:03,040 --> 01:37:05,120 Speaker 4: want to see it? But if I still did, we 2121 01:37:05,120 --> 01:37:07,920 Speaker 4: want to see Kobe on his last legs.

Oh, 2138 01:37:40,760 --> 01:37:43,599 Speaker 3: running back, Yeah, running back. 2139 01:37:43,720 --> 01:37:46,280 Speaker 2: And you know we've been talking about this over the 2140 01:37:46,360 --> 01:37:49,040 Speaker 2: last couple of years that they seem to have rediscovered 2141 01:37:49,080 --> 01:37:51,800 Speaker 2: the fact that running backs are really important. We had 2142 01:37:51,840 --> 01:37:56,560 Speaker 2: our first running back win Super Bowl MVP since Terrell Davis. 2143 01:37:56,720 --> 01:37:58,960 Speaker 2: It's been that long since we had a running back 2144 01:37:59,040 --> 01:38:01,439 Speaker 2: wins hed Super Bowl MVP. 2145 01:38:01,520 --> 01:38:03,879 Speaker 3: That was the nineteen ninety eight season. 2146 01:38:04,040 --> 01:38:05,360 Speaker 4: Should have been Marshaun Lynch. 2147 01:38:05,400 --> 01:38:08,479 Speaker 3: Yeah, or nineteen ninety seven season against the Packers, right 2148 01:38:08,520 --> 01:38:09,320 Speaker 3: against the Packers. 2149 01:38:09,520 --> 01:38:09,880 Speaker 4: All right. 2150 01:38:09,960 --> 01:38:13,479 Speaker 2: So, and now, speaking of free agents, Kenneth Walker is 2151 01:38:13,479 --> 01:38:17,160 Speaker 2: a free agent. But there's another free agent running back, 2152 01:38:17,240 --> 01:38:18,040 Speaker 2: Brece Hall. 2153 01:38:19,800 --> 01:38:20,040 Speaker 4: Yeah. 2154 01:38:20,360 --> 01:38:22,479 Speaker 2: I mean, it wasn't that long ago though, Brece Hall 2155 01:38:22,600 --> 01:38:25,599 Speaker 2: was on everybody's conversation. Remember all the collection of great 2156 01:38:25,640 --> 01:38:28,479 Speaker 2: young talent that Aaron Rodgers is going to inherit when 2157 01:38:28,479 --> 01:38:30,679 Speaker 2: it begins the quarterback at the New York Jets, Breese 2158 01:38:30,680 --> 01:38:33,280 Speaker 2: Hall being a big part of that. If you had 2159 01:38:33,280 --> 01:38:36,400 Speaker 2: a choice right now between Breece Hall and Kenneth Walker, 2160 01:38:37,479 --> 01:38:39,200 Speaker 2: which way are you going in free agency? 2161 01:38:39,280 --> 01:38:43,000 Speaker 3: Walker? Because Breese Hall has had the aco. So give me, 2162 01:38:43,120 --> 01:38:43,680 Speaker 3: give me the guy. 2163 01:38:43,760 --> 01:38:46,840 Speaker 4: Give me the guy that hasn't torn a lower extremity. 2164 01:38:47,200 --> 01:38:49,280 Speaker 4: Look at me, he hasn't torn his aco, hadn't torn achilles. 2165 01:38:49,280 --> 01:38:50,920 Speaker 4: I'll take that guy. He's had some banged up injuries 2166 01:38:50,960 --> 01:38:53,599 Speaker 4: all running backs to but I'm telling you where Seattle's 2167 01:38:53,600 --> 01:38:56,120 Speaker 4: playing very dangerous with this is Remember they just missed 2168 01:38:56,360 --> 01:38:58,439 Speaker 4: you and I guy, he's both our guys, but they 2169 01:38:58,479 --> 01:39:01,120 Speaker 4: just missed that Sharbonnay who had twelve rush of touchdowns 2170 01:39:01,120 --> 01:39:01,720 Speaker 4: for him this year. 2171 01:39:01,760 --> 01:39:05,800 Speaker 2: And that's why they're not gonna give kind of ranchise 2172 01:39:05,880 --> 01:39:07,360 Speaker 2: tag Kenneth Walker right. 2173 01:39:07,240 --> 01:39:09,040 Speaker 4: And I get it if they feel like Zach, because 2174 01:39:09,000 --> 01:39:11,360 Speaker 4: I think zach'son number one. I think Zach's RB one. 2175 01:39:11,439 --> 01:39:13,519 Speaker 4: I always have. That's been my guy since his senior 2176 01:39:13,560 --> 01:39:15,519 Speaker 4: year in high school out here for Oaks Christians. 2177 01:39:15,600 --> 01:39:16,559 Speaker 3: I think he's a RB one. 2178 01:39:16,640 --> 01:39:20,120 Speaker 4: I just think that it's a two back system in 2179 01:39:20,120 --> 01:39:20,679 Speaker 4: the NFL. 2180 01:39:20,800 --> 01:39:21,719 Speaker 3: I like two backs. 2181 01:39:21,720 --> 01:39:24,840 Speaker 4: I'm not opposed so you splitting carry, not splitting carriers. 2182 01:39:24,880 --> 01:39:26,639 Speaker 4: But if one guy's getting twenty one cares and another 2183 01:39:26,640 --> 01:39:28,920 Speaker 4: guy's getting eleven carries, I'm okay with that in the 2184 01:39:29,080 --> 01:39:29,839 Speaker 4: NFL today. 2185 01:39:30,040 --> 01:39:32,000 Speaker 3: But if you're asking me out of those two guys, 2186 01:39:32,360 --> 01:39:33,280 Speaker 3: give me the guy. 2187 01:39:33,160 --> 01:39:35,519 Speaker 4: That did not have a season ending injury in his 2188 01:39:35,600 --> 01:39:37,920 Speaker 4: young career so far, I'll take a thumper. 2189 01:39:38,000 --> 01:39:40,400 Speaker 3: I'll take a thumper, like like Kenneth Walker over him. 2190 01:39:40,800 --> 01:39:42,639 Speaker 4: Remember he said a little brother up in Michigan State 2191 01:39:42,720 --> 01:39:46,200 Speaker 4: in East Lansing, that dude he was. 2192 01:39:46,240 --> 01:39:47,240 Speaker 3: Running over everybody. 2193 01:39:47,320 --> 01:39:50,720 Speaker 2: Well, I remember it is transferring from Wake Forest. Ever 2194 01:39:50,840 --> 01:39:52,960 Speaker 2: heard the guy until he should have been Michigan State 2195 01:39:53,040 --> 01:39:54,320 Speaker 2: had his All American season? 2196 01:39:54,840 --> 01:39:55,160 Speaker 3: All right? 2197 01:39:55,280 --> 01:39:56,240 Speaker 4: So are you taking. 2198 01:39:59,360 --> 01:40:02,160 Speaker 2: Running back such a short career? Man, I'm looking at 2199 01:40:02,160 --> 01:40:04,680 Speaker 2: the calendar, I'm looking at the birth date. You know, 2200 01:40:06,160 --> 01:40:07,439 Speaker 2: I'm you know, Breee Hall. 2201 01:40:07,560 --> 01:40:10,799 Speaker 3: To me, he's a better receiver. Breese is a better receiver, 2202 01:40:10,920 --> 01:40:13,200 Speaker 3: but he's not the Kenneth Walker is a bad receiver, 2203 01:40:13,360 --> 01:40:14,439 Speaker 3: but he's a better one. 2204 01:40:14,439 --> 01:40:14,639 Speaker 1: Though. 2205 01:40:14,720 --> 01:40:14,960 Speaker 3: Yeah. 2206 01:40:15,520 --> 01:40:18,840 Speaker 2: Again, you have to evaluate their talent and how do 2207 01:40:18,920 --> 01:40:22,720 Speaker 2: they fit your offensive scheme. You know, if it's more 2208 01:40:22,760 --> 01:40:25,960 Speaker 2: of a just straight handoff running back scheme, yeah, I 2209 01:40:26,320 --> 01:40:28,240 Speaker 2: will go Kenneth Walker. If I'm gonna go a little 2210 01:40:28,280 --> 01:40:30,479 Speaker 2: more spread, a little more wide open guy that I 2211 01:40:30,479 --> 01:40:33,080 Speaker 2: can put out wide, then I might look at Breese 2212 01:40:33,160 --> 01:40:38,640 Speaker 2: Hall Chargers. When we think about teams that need quarterbacks 2213 01:40:38,720 --> 01:40:42,840 Speaker 2: right now, ooh, good one. I mean, and you know 2214 01:40:42,960 --> 01:40:45,360 Speaker 2: I'm going to use two teams that we were talking 2215 01:40:45,439 --> 01:40:48,360 Speaker 2: and this is nothing personally. You always take it so personally. 2216 01:40:48,040 --> 01:40:50,640 Speaker 4: Because you look ause you attack. Y'all attack me here, 2217 01:40:50,720 --> 01:40:52,200 Speaker 4: y'all been attacking me here for twelve years. 2218 01:40:52,200 --> 01:40:55,080 Speaker 3: Don't play with me. Okay, I haven't attacked you for 2219 01:40:55,120 --> 01:40:55,599 Speaker 3: twelve years. 2220 01:40:55,680 --> 01:40:55,800 Speaker 7: Yea. 2221 01:40:57,160 --> 01:40:59,559 Speaker 2: But right now you have two teams, and the Vikings 2222 01:40:59,560 --> 01:41:01,880 Speaker 2: and the bread They have young quarterbacks that they have 2223 01:41:01,920 --> 01:41:04,160 Speaker 2: to make a decision on and the idea of bringing 2224 01:41:04,200 --> 01:41:10,000 Speaker 2: in a veteran to maybe push the situation, hopefully push 2225 01:41:10,080 --> 01:41:12,880 Speaker 2: their young quarterbacks to the next level, which is what 2226 01:41:12,920 --> 01:41:16,840 Speaker 2: you're always trying to do develop a young quarterback. So 2227 01:41:17,120 --> 01:41:22,400 Speaker 2: if you're you know, Daniel Jones most likely is going 2228 01:41:22,479 --> 01:41:29,240 Speaker 2: to stay in Indy, right, they're going to get a 2229 01:41:29,280 --> 01:41:29,639 Speaker 2: do it done? 2230 01:41:29,760 --> 01:41:30,560 Speaker 3: Well, look at it. 2231 01:41:30,560 --> 01:41:34,519 Speaker 2: If you're Shane Gone, yeah, But I mean if I'm 2232 01:41:34,560 --> 01:41:38,280 Speaker 2: Shane Steichen, right, and I'm like, okay, before he got hurt. 2233 01:41:39,320 --> 01:41:44,040 Speaker 2: Eight one, we're sitting we're rolling, rolling our offense. 2234 01:41:45,760 --> 01:41:48,679 Speaker 3: Remember when they beat down the Chargers, right their first 2235 01:41:48,680 --> 01:41:50,720 Speaker 3: in the LEAGUEY had a number one offense in football. 2236 01:41:50,400 --> 01:41:53,760 Speaker 2: Right, and so, and Jonathan Taylor looked like he was 2237 01:41:53,760 --> 01:41:56,439 Speaker 2: on his way to MVP. And because he had balance, 2238 01:41:56,520 --> 01:42:00,000 Speaker 2: they had a passing attack. Once again, I can't imagine 2239 01:42:00,000 --> 01:42:04,160 Speaker 2: and he's gonna go anywhere other than stay in Indianapolis. Now, 2240 01:42:04,160 --> 01:42:06,559 Speaker 2: I say that because I remember thinking the same thing 2241 01:42:06,600 --> 01:42:10,800 Speaker 2: about Kirk Cousins in Minnesota, and then Atlanta offered him everything, 2242 01:42:11,439 --> 01:42:13,280 Speaker 2: and then they drafted a quarterback the same year. 2243 01:42:13,320 --> 01:42:16,720 Speaker 4: Sometimes they go to let him go. Okay, he's out there. 2244 01:42:16,760 --> 01:42:20,479 Speaker 2: Okay, So I'm gonna take Daniel Jones off the list 2245 01:42:20,720 --> 01:42:23,400 Speaker 2: and I'm gonna give you an alternative on the other side. 2246 01:42:23,400 --> 01:42:27,280 Speaker 2: All right, but first let's find out what is a 2247 01:42:27,400 --> 01:42:30,760 Speaker 2: trending right now. And by the way, every time I 2248 01:42:30,800 --> 01:42:33,800 Speaker 2: see Martin now, he's always got his guitar in hand, 2249 01:42:34,560 --> 01:42:39,800 Speaker 2: and so I have seen the evolution from your first 2250 01:42:39,840 --> 01:42:41,920 Speaker 2: you know, just trying to figure out how to play 2251 01:42:41,960 --> 01:42:44,439 Speaker 2: this thing, getting ready for your big wedding and everything else. 2252 01:42:45,120 --> 01:42:48,440 Speaker 2: Now you're like, uh, I don't know what to say. 2253 01:42:47,960 --> 01:42:49,720 Speaker 4: You can play that mark you good? 2254 01:42:50,479 --> 01:42:54,559 Speaker 1: Good is relative.

Can get any of this. 2339 01:46:49,120 --> 01:46:50,280 Speaker 3: In the last two. 2340 01:46:50,240 --> 01:46:58,240 Speaker 2: Years, this guy has completed seventy eight point seven percent 2341 01:46:58,280 --> 01:47:04,040 Speaker 2: of his passes, he has not thrown a single interception, 2342 01:47:06,560 --> 01:47:10,920 Speaker 2: his yards per attempt is ten point nine, and his 2343 01:47:11,120 --> 01:47:17,560 Speaker 2: passer rating is one thirty four point six over the 2344 01:47:17,680 --> 01:47:18,719 Speaker 2: last two years. 2345 01:47:21,040 --> 01:47:21,880 Speaker 4: Malik Willis. 2346 01:47:22,240 --> 01:47:27,280 Speaker 3: That is Malik Willis a Mleik Willis. 2347 01:47:27,640 --> 01:47:31,200 Speaker 2: In the last two years of backing up Jordan Love 2348 01:47:32,600 --> 01:47:36,200 Speaker 2: is seventy of eighty nine passing for nine hundred and 2349 01:47:36,280 --> 01:47:38,800 Speaker 2: seventy two yards, six touchdowns and no. 2350 01:47:38,880 --> 01:47:41,960 Speaker 3: Picks with a. 2351 01:47:41,439 --> 01:47:47,080 Speaker 2: Passer RATINGUM one thirty four point six. And he's a 2352 01:47:47,120 --> 01:47:47,719 Speaker 2: free agent. 2353 01:47:49,720 --> 01:47:51,320 Speaker 3: Now, I know it's limited. 2354 01:47:51,400 --> 01:47:54,360 Speaker 2: He's only started three games over the last couple of years, 2355 01:47:54,840 --> 01:47:58,040 Speaker 2: but after struggling as a rookie in Tennessee. His passer 2356 01:47:58,120 --> 01:48:00,320 Speaker 2: rating is the last three years or one, eighteen. 2357 01:48:02,240 --> 01:48:04,560 Speaker 3: Point five. These are ridiculous numbers. 2358 01:48:04,280 --> 01:48:07,719 Speaker 2: Right, So then the question is does that translate into 2359 01:48:07,800 --> 01:48:11,880 Speaker 2: being a number one quarterback? And if I'm looking at 2360 01:48:12,240 --> 01:48:15,519 Speaker 2: teams like the Vikings and the Browns, where you would 2361 01:48:15,560 --> 01:48:19,120 Speaker 2: obviously have a very motivated Milik Willis, because I'm sure 2362 01:48:19,160 --> 01:48:21,920 Speaker 2: he feels like I should be a number one quarterback. 2363 01:48:22,400 --> 01:48:25,280 Speaker 2: I have shown that when I get in I can 2364 01:48:25,400 --> 01:48:27,479 Speaker 2: get this job done at a high level. 2365 01:48:28,040 --> 01:48:29,400 Speaker 3: Give me that opportunity. 2366 01:48:30,400 --> 01:48:32,519 Speaker 2: So if you are the Browns or the Vikings with 2367 01:48:32,600 --> 01:48:35,680 Speaker 2: these young quarterbacks that they have right now, would you 2368 01:48:35,800 --> 01:48:38,599 Speaker 2: roll the die some Melik Willis to see if indeed 2369 01:48:39,240 --> 01:48:43,240 Speaker 2: he can be a full time quarterback as productive as 2370 01:48:43,280 --> 01:48:45,280 Speaker 2: he has been the last couple of years in Green 2371 01:48:45,320 --> 01:48:47,560 Speaker 2: Bay as a backup quarterback. 2372 01:48:48,240 --> 01:48:51,760 Speaker 4: Those two teams know no, no, does the Browns need more? 2373 01:48:52,320 --> 01:48:54,960 Speaker 4: Browns needmore? And I think you give your door. I don't. 2374 01:48:55,000 --> 01:48:56,559 Speaker 4: I don't see why you would do that. This year 2375 01:48:56,600 --> 01:48:58,479 Speaker 4: gives your door another full gives your door a full year, 2376 01:48:59,040 --> 01:49:01,439 Speaker 4: gives your door a full year. You're gonna spend that 2377 01:49:01,600 --> 01:49:05,400 Speaker 4: money on a free aging quarterback. I would because if 2378 01:49:05,439 --> 01:49:08,080 Speaker 4: you're bad next year, you're gonna be in that great 2379 01:49:08,160 --> 01:49:09,759 Speaker 4: quarterback draft class coming out of coach. 2380 01:49:09,640 --> 01:49:11,280 Speaker 3: Okay, but lem me pause for a second here. 2381 01:49:11,400 --> 01:49:16,320 Speaker 2: So basically you're answering the question is you don't look 2382 01:49:16,320 --> 01:49:19,360 Speaker 2: at Malik Willis's somehow a guarantee fix. 2383 01:49:19,720 --> 01:49:21,400 Speaker 3: For certain teams. I do I love? 2384 01:49:21,560 --> 01:49:23,760 Speaker 4: First of all, I love Milik Willis, always have coming 2385 01:49:23,800 --> 01:49:24,920 Speaker 4: out of Liberty University. 2386 01:49:25,000 --> 01:49:26,720 Speaker 2: Okay, Well, then give me a team that he's a 2387 01:49:26,720 --> 01:49:27,559 Speaker 2: guarantee fix. 2388 01:49:28,120 --> 01:49:31,080 Speaker 4: I think he'd be great Miami. I do. I think 2389 01:49:31,120 --> 01:49:31,559 Speaker 4: he'd be great. 2390 01:49:31,840 --> 01:49:33,559 Speaker 3: I think I'm selfish, yeah. 2391 01:49:33,439 --> 01:49:36,400 Speaker 4: But why think it would be great in a in 2392 01:49:36,439 --> 01:49:38,720 Speaker 4: a system like that with the Webs, they have no 2393 01:49:38,800 --> 01:49:41,360 Speaker 4: more on rushing offense number one yards per carry running 2394 01:49:41,360 --> 01:49:44,800 Speaker 4: back behind him, a WR winning Jalen Waddle. I think 2395 01:49:44,840 --> 01:49:46,479 Speaker 4: they should go out there got maybe like copp is there, 2396 01:49:46,640 --> 01:49:48,280 Speaker 4: like I think Malik Willis would fit in great. 2397 01:49:48,560 --> 01:49:52,840 Speaker 3: I would like I would listen. I would like Malik Willis. 2398 01:49:52,720 --> 01:49:55,880 Speaker 4: In New York. Not with the Green team though, But 2399 01:49:55,960 --> 01:49:57,720 Speaker 4: I know Jackson Dart's there. But I don't think I 2400 01:49:57,760 --> 01:50:00,120 Speaker 4: believe in Jackson Dart, and I don't think a lot 2401 01:50:00,000 --> 01:50:02,360 Speaker 4: lot of people do. But I think they're kind of handshruck. 2402 01:50:02,360 --> 01:50:04,920 Speaker 4: That's why I say no, to Minnesota. Well, I can't bail. 2403 01:50:05,040 --> 01:50:08,960 Speaker 3: You can't bail on the first round pick in one year. 2404 01:50:09,160 --> 01:50:13,360 Speaker 4: You just can't. You can't do that because if he 2405 01:50:13,439 --> 01:50:16,320 Speaker 4: does not work out, now you've set yourself back another 2406 01:50:16,360 --> 01:50:18,800 Speaker 4: five Molak, I'm just saying I think he will, though, 2407 01:50:18,840 --> 01:50:20,439 Speaker 4: I'm just saying if he did not. 2408 01:50:20,960 --> 01:50:22,479 Speaker 2: I love the fact you bring up to the Giants 2409 01:50:22,479 --> 01:50:23,639 Speaker 2: because you know where I stand. 2410 01:50:23,439 --> 01:50:24,080 Speaker 3: On John Harpy. 2411 01:50:24,120 --> 01:50:24,519 Speaker 4: I know you do. 2412 01:50:25,640 --> 01:50:29,240 Speaker 2: These people are like, oh boy, that finally you're so 2413 01:50:29,840 --> 01:50:32,599 Speaker 2: you got stability, and I'm you're gonna find. 2414 01:50:32,439 --> 01:50:33,800 Speaker 4: Him plus No, no, we're not. 2415 01:50:33,920 --> 01:50:36,240 Speaker 3: They're gonna double their wins ten plus wins. 2416 01:50:36,880 --> 01:50:39,960 Speaker 4: Watch the front sevens, the front. 2417 01:50:39,720 --> 01:50:41,960 Speaker 3: Set, the jackson you just said, he don't believe in 2418 01:50:42,000 --> 01:50:44,040 Speaker 3: the quarterback.

So they're not getting their 2422 01:50:50,200 --> 01:50:53,080 Speaker 4: ass kicking getting blown out?

The Cardinals have weapons, guys. 2481 01:53:10,439 --> 01:53:12,960 Speaker 4: The Cardinals were putting up points with Jacoby Brissett as 2482 01:53:13,000 --> 01:53:13,679 Speaker 4: their quarterback. 2483 01:53:13,840 --> 01:53:17,000 Speaker 2: Is Marvin Harrison Junior the most overrated receiver we've seen 2484 01:53:17,040 --> 01:53:17,799 Speaker 2: in recent memory? 2485 01:53:18,600 --> 01:53:21,200 Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, yes, yeah, yes. 2486 01:53:21,320 --> 01:53:23,679 Speaker 4: And I'm trying to figure out why he has all 2487 01:53:23,760 --> 01:53:26,960 Speaker 4: the tools he has, the size he has, the body 2488 01:53:27,040 --> 01:53:30,040 Speaker 4: he has, the hands he had.

Do you feel he We talk about 2491 01:53:37,040 --> 01:53:40,080 Speaker 4: the pressure, we talk about identity. 2492 01:53:39,760 --> 01:53:43,760 Speaker 3: I get the game doesn't care whether he's there or not. 2493 01:53:44,080 --> 01:53:47,280 Speaker 2: So they have this factory of wide receivers at Ohio State, right. 2494 01:53:47,320 --> 01:53:49,800 Speaker 3: And then, by the way, we also look at you. 2495 01:53:49,840 --> 01:53:50,439 Speaker 3: I mean C. J. 2496 01:53:50,600 --> 01:53:53,559 Speaker 2: Stroud has certainly gone backwards. Are we all in agreement 2497 01:53:53,600 --> 01:53:56,280 Speaker 2: on that the last couple of years? Okay, so it 2498 01:53:56,360 --> 01:53:59,080 Speaker 2: was fool's gold what we saw his rookie year, like 2499 01:53:59,120 --> 01:54:02,280 Speaker 2: he was he was going to be this transformative, you 2500 01:54:02,320 --> 01:54:06,520 Speaker 2: know guy, And two years later he is a significantly 2501 01:54:06,800 --> 01:54:09,280 Speaker 2: worst quarterback than he was his rookie season. 2502 01:54:09,280 --> 01:54:10,920 Speaker 4: I don't know if it was fool's goal, because I 2503 01:54:10,960 --> 01:54:13,840 Speaker 4: sat right here on this network and said, if if 2504 01:54:13,880 --> 01:54:17,080 Speaker 4: the Colts don't decide on fourth and one and that 2505 01:54:17,200 --> 01:54:20,120 Speaker 4: last game of the year to throw to the fullback 2506 01:54:20,160 --> 01:54:23,040 Speaker 4: in the flat that they've only thrown to one other 2507 01:54:23,200 --> 01:54:25,160 Speaker 4: time all year long, Hey. 2508 01:54:25,040 --> 01:54:28,440 Speaker 2: He tried all first, he drops the first down, eyeball. 2509 01:54:28,240 --> 01:54:30,000 Speaker 3: And that's how did the Texas win that division. 2510 01:54:30,120 --> 01:54:32,120 Speaker 2: What you saw in that first half of that playoff 2511 01:54:32,120 --> 01:54:32,840 Speaker 2: game against. 2512 01:54:32,600 --> 01:54:35,040 Speaker 3: The Patriots, worst game of C. J. Shaw's life. 2513 01:54:35,080 --> 01:54:37,960 Speaker 2: Okay, he's going backwards right now by the games. But 2514 01:54:38,320 --> 01:54:41,200 Speaker 2: Ohio State has these you know, huge justin fields. 2515 01:54:41,240 --> 01:54:42,640 Speaker 3: I mean, we can go on, by the way, you 2516 01:54:42,640 --> 01:54:43,560 Speaker 3: remember Wilson. 2517 01:54:43,600 --> 01:54:46,000 Speaker 2: By the way, when I always talk about that NFL 2518 01:54:46,080 --> 01:54:49,240 Speaker 2: dot Com rating the quarterbacks, I mentioned McCarthy was at 2519 01:54:49,280 --> 01:54:51,960 Speaker 2: thirty and number thirty one was Shuture. 2520 01:54:52,480 --> 01:54:55,680 Speaker 3: Thirty two is justin field, poor guy. Bottom of the 2521 01:54:55,680 --> 01:54:56,400 Speaker 3: list for guy. 2522 01:54:57,360 --> 01:55:00,000 Speaker 2: But you get these wide receivers, you know, and obviously 2523 01:55:00,000 --> 01:55:02,880 Speaker 2: Smith and Jagba's big time, right. I mean, it's been 2524 01:55:02,960 --> 01:55:05,480 Speaker 2: sort of a mixed bag with these Ohio State receivers 2525 01:55:05,520 --> 01:55:06,200 Speaker 2: and Garrett I. 2526 01:55:06,200 --> 01:55:08,640 Speaker 4: Think Gary Wilson's legit. Yeah, even though he's always there. 2527 01:55:08,800 --> 01:55:11,320 Speaker 4: I think Garret Wilson's legit. I just him and him, 2528 01:55:11,360 --> 01:55:12,840 Speaker 4: and but he Garrett. 2529 01:55:12,600 --> 01:55:14,960 Speaker 8: Wilson missed like eight games and he still led the 2530 01:55:15,000 --> 01:55:15,960 Speaker 8: Jets and receiving, right. 2531 01:55:16,000 --> 01:55:17,480 Speaker 3: But he's also a head case though. 2532 01:55:17,520 --> 01:55:20,120 Speaker 4: That's that's what's gonna hold him back, is that he 2533 01:55:20,280 --> 01:55:23,280 Speaker 4: thinks he's probably better than he is. And when you're 2534 01:55:23,320 --> 01:55:26,160 Speaker 4: going at it, I know, I know Aaron Rodgers ain't 2535 01:55:26,200 --> 01:55:29,480 Speaker 4: discount double check. But as a young buck to be 2536 01:55:29,640 --> 01:55:32,120 Speaker 4: firing back and forth with a Hall of Fame vet 2537 01:55:32,240 --> 01:55:33,840 Speaker 4: like that, you might want to learn your place a 2538 01:55:33,880 --> 01:55:37,160 Speaker 4: little more. Yeah, no, no, that's real talk. You might 2539 01:55:37,200 --> 01:55:39,240 Speaker 4: want to learn your place a little more as a young. 2540 01:55:39,040 --> 01:55:40,480 Speaker 3: Player, agree, you know. 2541 01:55:40,720 --> 01:55:44,280 Speaker 2: I mean you can see, yeah, when when he signed on, 2542 01:55:44,320 --> 01:55:46,160 Speaker 2: when Aaron Rodgers signed on with the Jets, he could 2543 01:55:46,200 --> 01:55:48,560 Speaker 2: not be more excited about Garrett Wilson, and he sort 2544 01:55:48,600 --> 01:55:49,839 Speaker 2: of ran into this kid. 2545 01:55:49,760 --> 01:55:52,400 Speaker 4: And yes, and real I mean training camp. Yeah, it 2546 01:55:52,440 --> 01:55:55,400 Speaker 4: wasn't even preseason training camp. They're going at it. Yeah, 2547 01:55:55,400 --> 01:55:58,280 Speaker 4: but that's a young kid mouthing back. It's somebody should 2548 01:55:58,280 --> 01:56:01,200 Speaker 4: have pulled him aside and say, hey, look, man, hold up, homie. 2549 01:56:01,000 --> 01:56:03,040 Speaker 3: That would be Robert Salah. How did he get another 2550 01:56:03,160 --> 01:56:05,640 Speaker 3: hedge coaching job? Did I not call that?

Okay, 2576 01:57:22,200 --> 01:57:26,600 Speaker 2: Kevin Durant not anymore? Was there a time when he 2577 01:57:26,720 --> 01:57:28,200 Speaker 2: was ever at the top of the mountain? 2578 01:57:28,520 --> 01:57:31,200 Speaker 4: No, because Kobe was still in his prime and then 2579 01:57:31,360 --> 01:57:33,360 Speaker 4: and then le Bron came on doing his thing, and 2580 01:57:33,320 --> 01:57:35,880 Speaker 4: then step So when was ever his time?

I 2623 01:59:16,560 --> 01:59:18,880 Speaker 2: thought he was deserving of the high draft pick he got. 2624 01:59:19,320 --> 01:59:21,600 Speaker 3: He showed me otherwise in a percentage of your trust, 2625 01:59:22,480 --> 01:59:24,280 Speaker 3: percentage of your trust less than fifty percent. 2626 01:59:24,320 --> 01:59:27,480 Speaker 4: Okay, so less than fifty percent.

Well, it is 2651 02:00:22,480 --> 02:00:25,440 Speaker 2: nice to get Charger records everything else, and I would. 2652 02:00:25,240 --> 02:00:29,160 Speaker 3: Say after like week ten, Keenan Allen disappear. 2653 02:00:29,320 --> 02:00:31,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, we got a lot of NBA to 2654 02:00:31,680 --> 02:00:34,640 Speaker 2: get to. This is Fox Sports Sunday. I hope you're 2655 02:00:34,720 --> 02:00:38,520 Speaker 2: enjoying your sports Sunday. We certainly are every single Sunday 2656 02:00:38,520 --> 02:00:39,879 Speaker 2: here on Fox Sports Sunday. 2657 02:00:40,080 --> 02:00:42,680 Speaker 3: We're in the Fox Sports radio studios. 2658 02:00:43,080 --> 02:00:46,200 Speaker 2: And you know, there was a lot of news with 2659 02:00:46,280 --> 02:00:49,200 Speaker 2: the NBA around the All Star break about. 2660 02:00:49,240 --> 02:00:55,280 Speaker 3: Tanking, which doesn't work. 2661 02:00:55,920 --> 02:00:59,680 Speaker 2: First of all, I think we all agree that this, 2662 02:00:59,680 --> 02:01:02,320 Speaker 2: this is this is the bigger cover of the question. 2663 02:01:02,600 --> 02:01:04,000 Speaker 3: Isn't about teams tanking? 2664 02:01:04,400 --> 02:01:07,520 Speaker 2: The question is how is it the teams that supposedly 2665 02:01:07,560 --> 02:01:09,680 Speaker 2: have a five percent chance of getting the number one 2666 02:01:09,720 --> 02:01:11,680 Speaker 2: overall pick magically always seem. 2667 02:01:11,560 --> 02:01:12,000 Speaker 4: To do that. 2668 02:01:14,160 --> 02:01:16,760 Speaker 3: Can we see the ping pong balls? Can we see 2669 02:01:16,760 --> 02:01:19,480 Speaker 3: those ping pong balls instead of somebody just emerging from 2670 02:01:19,520 --> 02:01:22,440 Speaker 3: the back room saying, hey, dretch, some miraculous The Dallas 2671 02:01:22,440 --> 02:01:25,360 Speaker 3: Mavericks get the number one pick. Yeah, they get Cooper 2672 02:01:25,400 --> 02:01:29,120 Speaker 3: fly I'm wow, san Antonio out of nowhere, they get Whimmy. 2673 02:01:29,200 --> 02:01:30,880 Speaker 2: I mean, this was going on and on and on. 2674 02:01:31,360 --> 02:01:34,320 Speaker 2: So the lack of transparency. This is what I always 2675 02:01:34,320 --> 02:01:38,720 Speaker 2: say about the NBA. If you if you hear about 2676 02:01:38,760 --> 02:01:42,960 Speaker 2: a conspiracy theory that's associated with the NBA. 2677 02:01:42,840 --> 02:01:45,080 Speaker 3: Believe it true. Believe it. 2678 02:01:45,720 --> 02:01:48,600 Speaker 2: If you think there's a can speaking hero, there's a 2679 02:01:48,760 --> 02:01:52,640 Speaker 2: it's believable, all right. So I want to use that 2680 02:01:52,800 --> 02:01:55,800 Speaker 2: right now because you know whether when they say you're 2681 02:01:55,840 --> 02:01:58,320 Speaker 2: only is as good as your weakest link. Well, the 2682 02:01:58,360 --> 02:02:02,520 Speaker 2: current weakest link in the NBA. The Sacramento Kings have 2683 02:02:02,560 --> 02:02:08,800 Speaker 2: lost sixteen straight games. First of all, you have them 2684 02:02:08,840 --> 02:02:11,400 Speaker 2: on a sixteen game losing streak. The MAVs are on 2685 02:02:11,440 --> 02:02:13,720 Speaker 2: a ten game losing streak. The Bulls are on an 2686 02:02:13,800 --> 02:02:17,080 Speaker 2: eight game losing streak. So I'm gonna give you the 2687 02:02:17,120 --> 02:02:19,880 Speaker 2: ten teams right now that are on the outside looking 2688 02:02:19,920 --> 02:02:22,120 Speaker 2: in in terms of the playing, right, you got ten 2689 02:02:22,160 --> 02:02:24,560 Speaker 2: teams in East Conference, So in the East, I'll say 2690 02:02:24,560 --> 02:02:27,560 Speaker 2: them all then, and I want your question on which 2691 02:02:27,640 --> 02:02:30,320 Speaker 2: one of these teams will end up with the number 2692 02:02:30,320 --> 02:02:33,680 Speaker 2: one overall pick, because that's the way the NBA wants it, 2693 02:02:34,240 --> 02:02:37,680 Speaker 2: all right, So these are the ten teams, Okay, I'll 2694 02:02:37,720 --> 02:02:39,880 Speaker 2: just say them and then don't respond until I say 2695 02:02:39,880 --> 02:02:40,480 Speaker 2: all ten teams. 2696 02:02:40,560 --> 02:02:40,880 Speaker 1: Okay. 2697 02:02:42,040 --> 02:02:45,360 Speaker 3: The five in the East are the Bucks, the Bulls, 2698 02:02:46,320 --> 02:02:52,800 Speaker 3: the Wizards, the Nets, and the Pacers. And then in 2699 02:02:52,880 --> 02:02:58,760 Speaker 3: the West you have the Grizzlies, the Mavericks, the Jazz, 2700 02:02:59,760 --> 02:03:02,760 Speaker 3: the Helicans, and the Kings. 2701 02:03:03,920 --> 02:03:05,960 Speaker 2: All right, So if you're the NBA, and by the way, 2702 02:03:06,000 --> 02:03:09,560 Speaker 2: here here's one of the problems, because understand this, the 2703 02:03:09,640 --> 02:03:11,480 Speaker 2: number one pick in this draft is going to be 2704 02:03:11,520 --> 02:03:12,360 Speaker 2: Darren Peterson. 2705 02:03:12,520 --> 02:03:13,480 Speaker 3: And he has got. 2706 02:03:13,320 --> 02:03:16,440 Speaker 2: Warning signs all over the place, right right, I mean, 2707 02:03:16,480 --> 02:03:19,200 Speaker 2: what's happening with him at Kansas. He has set out 2708 02:03:19,240 --> 02:03:22,560 Speaker 2: twelve games this year for a variety of reasons, but 2709 02:03:22,720 --> 02:03:25,000 Speaker 2: the biggest reason is if he has so much as 2710 02:03:25,000 --> 02:03:27,880 Speaker 2: a hangnail, he does want to risk injury. He is 2711 02:03:27,920 --> 02:03:31,760 Speaker 2: going to be the number one pick. He has insane talent, but. 2712 02:03:32,520 --> 02:03:36,000 Speaker 4: A warning, franchise guy's not generational, but he's a franchise. 2713 02:03:35,680 --> 02:03:39,360 Speaker 2: He is a franchise guy. And I don't know if 2714 02:03:39,360 --> 02:03:41,480 Speaker 2: I would wish this guy. I mean, if you got 2715 02:03:41,480 --> 02:03:45,520 Speaker 2: this attitude in college, I can't imagine the bet. So yeah, 2716 02:03:45,520 --> 02:03:47,920 Speaker 2: but he has missed like twelve games of Kansas this 2717 02:03:48,000 --> 02:03:49,800 Speaker 2: year because of a. 2718 02:03:49,800 --> 02:03:50,720 Speaker 3: Variety of reasons. 2719 02:03:50,760 --> 02:03:53,200 Speaker 2: All right, so of the ten teams I gave you, 2720 02:03:53,280 --> 02:03:56,800 Speaker 2: right now, the NBA is looking at these ten teams saying, 2721 02:03:57,240 --> 02:03:59,960 Speaker 2: all right, which one of these teams do we want? 2722 02:04:00,040 --> 02:04:04,840 Speaker 2: Which one of these teams will we give the number 2723 02:04:04,880 --> 02:04:05,640 Speaker 2: one overall? 2724 02:04:05,680 --> 02:04:11,120 Speaker 3: Pick two? It is easy. It's the Milwaukee Bucks. Do 2725 02:04:11,160 --> 02:04:12,360 Speaker 3: you think Milwaukee's vic? 2726 02:04:13,440 --> 02:04:17,240 Speaker 4: They're gonna lose Yannis. This is the payback from losing Yannis. 2727 02:04:17,360 --> 02:04:20,879 Speaker 4: They're gonna lose Jannis this off season. They're trading Yannis. 2728 02:04:20,880 --> 02:04:22,360 Speaker 4: He will not be in a uniform there. 2729 02:04:22,440 --> 02:04:22,800 Speaker 3: Let me. 2730 02:04:24,440 --> 02:04:28,920 Speaker 4: And Doc Rivers knows somebody's secret, because the man keeps 2731 02:04:28,920 --> 02:04:31,360 Speaker 4: getting damn jobs, and no one in his studio right 2732 02:04:31,360 --> 02:04:35,040 Speaker 4: now believes that Doc Rivers is an upper echelon great coat. 2733 02:04:35,120 --> 02:04:37,000 Speaker 3: Guess what, Doc Rivers is gonna get elected of the 2734 02:04:37,000 --> 02:04:38,000 Speaker 3: Basketball Hall of Fame. 2735 02:04:37,880 --> 02:04:41,280 Speaker 2: This year, probably well, there's only one voter. This is 2736 02:04:40,920 --> 02:04:43,720 Speaker 2: what you talk about conspiracy theories. They have what they 2737 02:04:43,760 --> 02:04:46,520 Speaker 2: call it Honors Court that selects the Basketball Hall of Fame. 2738 02:04:46,640 --> 02:04:48,120 Speaker 3: Understand, it's all encompassing. 2739 02:04:48,280 --> 02:04:51,320 Speaker 2: It's not just the NBA, it's you know, everything, and 2740 02:04:51,560 --> 02:04:53,920 Speaker 2: there's only one vote. His name is Jerry Colangelo. He 2741 02:04:54,000 --> 02:04:56,000 Speaker 2: runs the Hall of Fame. He has his sole vote. 2742 02:04:56,080 --> 02:04:58,720 Speaker 3: Okay, so if he's good with Doc Rivers, which I'm 2743 02:04:58,760 --> 02:05:00,960 Speaker 3: sure he is, Doc will get in one hundred percent. 2744 02:05:01,000 --> 02:05:03,480 Speaker 4: Agree with you on that, all right? So you say 2745 02:05:03,520 --> 02:05:07,160 Speaker 4: the Bucks, right, it's the Buck I got a one 2746 02:05:07,200 --> 02:05:07,640 Speaker 4: B team. 2747 02:05:07,840 --> 02:05:11,000 Speaker 3: Why do you believe a year ago we saw out 2748 02:05:11,000 --> 02:05:15,960 Speaker 3: of nowhere Luka Doncic come to the Lakers, right, a 2749 02:05:16,080 --> 02:05:21,640 Speaker 3: trade that no one thought possible happened? Right? Why couldn't the. 2750 02:05:21,640 --> 02:05:24,520 Speaker 2: NBA get that done with Giannis? Why did we go 2751 02:05:24,560 --> 02:05:28,720 Speaker 2: through that trade deadline? And Yannis is still sitting with 2752 02:05:28,800 --> 02:05:30,920 Speaker 2: a Milwaukee Bucks team that is going to be hard 2753 02:05:30,920 --> 02:05:31,520 Speaker 2: pressed to make. 2754 02:05:31,400 --> 02:05:34,240 Speaker 4: The place because he wants to be in New York 2755 02:05:34,800 --> 02:05:38,280 Speaker 4: and New York's already got two stars and the Knicks. 2756 02:05:38,440 --> 02:05:41,320 Speaker 4: Dolan was bucking the NBA because the Bucks won a 2757 02:05:41,440 --> 02:05:45,040 Speaker 4: CAT and Dolan cat's saying no. So the NBA is like, okay, 2758 02:05:45,040 --> 02:05:47,480 Speaker 4: well fine, we're not letting you do this trade. We're not. 2759 02:05:47,560 --> 02:05:49,960 Speaker 4: We're trying to come away from the super team thing, 2760 02:05:50,400 --> 02:05:52,880 Speaker 4: and we're trying. It's not good for the product. It's 2761 02:05:52,880 --> 02:05:54,320 Speaker 4: not good for the product we just talked about. 2762 02:05:54,360 --> 02:05:57,720 Speaker 3: Okay, see, given up Cat to get you? Honest? 2763 02:05:58,120 --> 02:05:59,840 Speaker 4: If I was the NIXT, yeah, hell yata give it 2764 02:05:59,920 --> 02:06:02,920 Speaker 4: up Cat to give of course. But I don't run 2765 02:06:02,920 --> 02:06:06,160 Speaker 4: the Knicks. I don't run the next run I run 2766 02:06:06,200 --> 02:06:06,920 Speaker 4: a Husky falls. 2767 02:06:07,160 --> 02:06:08,840 Speaker 2: So you say he's gonna side with the Knicks or 2768 02:06:08,840 --> 02:06:10,880 Speaker 2: is he gonna sign in miam No, they're gonna trade. 2769 02:06:10,920 --> 02:06:12,720 Speaker 3: He's not a free agent this off season. They're gonna 2770 02:06:12,720 --> 02:06:14,640 Speaker 3: have to trade him. I understand he's not a. 2771 02:06:14,560 --> 02:06:16,720 Speaker 4: Free agent, but he's gonna get traded this off season. 2772 02:06:16,800 --> 02:06:19,160 Speaker 4: He doesn't want to be there. It's gotten too messy. 2773 02:06:19,400 --> 02:06:22,040 Speaker 4: He can't go back. I don't know if Jannis plays 2774 02:06:22,080 --> 02:06:22,760 Speaker 4: again this year. 2775 02:06:23,160 --> 02:06:25,960 Speaker 8: Probably not right. I'm sick of Giannis though, can like 2776 02:06:26,840 --> 02:06:31,240 Speaker 8: he he very clearly like David Stern would have had 2777 02:06:31,320 --> 02:06:34,760 Speaker 8: him like buried in the desert for announcing a partnership 2778 02:06:34,760 --> 02:06:37,920 Speaker 8: with cal She after he manipulated the trade deadline and 2779 02:06:37,920 --> 02:06:40,000 Speaker 8: stuff like that. We can all admit that. But then 2780 02:06:40,040 --> 02:06:41,520 Speaker 8: he does an interview where he's like, I want to 2781 02:06:41,520 --> 02:06:43,520 Speaker 8: stay in Milwaukee, Buck. But then he does an interview 2782 02:06:43,520 --> 02:06:44,920 Speaker 8: in Greece where he's like, if it was up to me, 2783 02:06:44,960 --> 02:06:48,040 Speaker 8: I would have left. Like right, he's just exhausting. He's 2784 02:06:48,520 --> 02:06:49,840 Speaker 8: he's an exhausting. 2785 02:06:49,400 --> 02:06:53,880 Speaker 4: Person and he turned into and honestly he's he's americanized. 2786 02:06:54,120 --> 02:06:56,320 Speaker 8: The bad guy. It's the thing. He doesn't want anybody 2787 02:06:56,400 --> 02:06:57,600 Speaker 8: to be mad at him for wanting to leave. 2788 02:06:57,600 --> 02:07:00,800 Speaker 2: He should be happy. Somehow Milwaukee won that one in championship. 2789 02:07:00,840 --> 02:07:03,200 Speaker 2: I mean that came out of nowhere, all right, I'll 2790 02:07:03,200 --> 02:07:05,480 Speaker 2: ask you Bo, I asked you Chris. I'm going to 2791 02:07:05,520 --> 02:07:08,360 Speaker 2: give you those ten teams, which one? Because I think 2792 02:07:08,360 --> 02:07:10,320 Speaker 2: we're all in the same page right that if this 2793 02:07:10,520 --> 02:07:13,520 Speaker 2: is all fixed, I hate to use that word, there's 2794 02:07:13,560 --> 02:07:18,919 Speaker 2: a conspiracy, believe it, uh, Because again, when we're taught exactly, 2795 02:07:19,000 --> 02:07:23,720 Speaker 2: it's predetermined. So Darren Peterson, the Kansas kid, has all 2796 02:07:23,760 --> 02:07:25,640 Speaker 2: this talent, but he doesn't want to play. 2797 02:07:26,520 --> 02:07:27,360 Speaker 3: On his own time. 2798 02:07:27,920 --> 02:07:34,760 Speaker 2: Bucks, Bulls, Wizards, Nets, Pacers, Grizzlies, Mavericks, Jazz, Pelicans, and Kings, 2799 02:07:35,520 --> 02:07:37,160 Speaker 2: which one of those teams. 2800 02:07:37,280 --> 02:07:41,520 Speaker 3: Does the NBA want to have the number one? Overall? 2801 02:07:41,960 --> 02:07:46,080 Speaker 6: This feels tough just because, like this draft versus other drafts, 2802 02:07:46,080 --> 02:07:48,200 Speaker 6: there's not a clear and I had one. 2803 02:07:49,400 --> 02:07:53,240 Speaker 3: Everyone's got paid, everyone's got specific franchise guys. 2804 02:07:53,320 --> 02:07:55,960 Speaker 6: Yeah, but I think certain certain teams definitely, like if 2805 02:07:55,960 --> 02:07:57,400 Speaker 6: the Jazz are in here, they're going to go for 2806 02:07:58,160 --> 02:08:00,440 Speaker 6: like a very specific This feels a little or specific. 2807 02:08:00,480 --> 02:08:02,080 Speaker 3: It's not like there's a Wemban Yama on this. 2808 02:08:02,160 --> 02:08:04,280 Speaker 6: I could see the Kings getting one and then taking 2809 02:08:04,280 --> 02:08:07,760 Speaker 6: that guy from Kansas who never plays like I I. 2810 02:08:07,840 --> 02:08:10,000 Speaker 3: Well, I mean you got Boozer out there, you got 2811 02:08:10,000 --> 02:08:12,200 Speaker 3: the kid from b Yu. I mean, these are the names. 2812 02:08:12,200 --> 02:08:16,520 Speaker 3: Everyone's got, Williams and Caroline, there's five. You're already naming 2813 02:08:16,560 --> 02:08:19,720 Speaker 3: a bunch of names. I'm saying. This isn't like AMA 2814 02:08:19,840 --> 02:08:22,200 Speaker 3: draft where it's like everyone needs this guy. If you 2815 02:08:22,200 --> 02:08:23,240 Speaker 3: get number one, you take it. 2816 02:08:23,240 --> 02:08:25,160 Speaker 2: So you think they'll actually just let it roll on 2817 02:08:25,240 --> 02:08:26,320 Speaker 2: whoever gets it gets it. 2818 02:08:26,400 --> 02:08:27,600 Speaker 3: I don't think they'll let it roll. 2819 02:08:27,720 --> 02:08:29,440 Speaker 6: I think I think they'll try to give it to 2820 02:08:30,080 --> 02:08:32,520 Speaker 6: a team that they feel is is like deserving on this, 2821 02:08:32,680 --> 02:08:33,920 Speaker 6: but also like there's. 2822 02:08:33,840 --> 02:08:36,200 Speaker 2: You want to give Flag some help in Dallas. 2823 02:08:36,880 --> 02:08:40,120 Speaker 6: No, they have gone back to the well too many times. 2824 02:08:40,160 --> 02:08:43,200 Speaker 3: Really, we've seen that before, remember what was it? 2825 02:08:43,280 --> 02:08:46,200 Speaker 6: Or if we're doing conspiracy thinking on this, then like 2826 02:08:46,360 --> 02:08:49,200 Speaker 6: I I think I think I would even lead Pacers 2827 02:08:49,320 --> 02:08:49,839 Speaker 6: or Kings. 2828 02:08:50,200 --> 02:08:53,000 Speaker 4: Why Pacers? Though Pacers have a start. They were just 2829 02:08:53,000 --> 02:08:55,400 Speaker 4: in the finals two years ago. Now they're bad this year? 2830 02:08:55,560 --> 02:08:56,760 Speaker 4: Is because they're stars. 2831 02:08:56,480 --> 02:08:58,680 Speaker 2: Out well, I guess the question is which one of 2832 02:08:58,720 --> 02:09:01,200 Speaker 2: these is the most vide the Bulls have any value 2833 02:09:01,200 --> 02:09:04,360 Speaker 2: to the league. No, No, the Bulls enough favorites. The 2834 02:09:04,600 --> 02:09:06,200 Speaker 2: Brooklyn Nets have any value to them. 2835 02:09:06,440 --> 02:09:08,240 Speaker 6: I think here's the thing is, like, what's the fastest 2836 02:09:08,240 --> 02:09:10,240 Speaker 6: thing you get people back on that track with the Pacers? 2837 02:09:10,280 --> 02:09:12,600 Speaker 6: Just give them another super, give them a big star there, 2838 02:09:12,680 --> 02:09:14,600 Speaker 6: another big piece, and keep working out. 2839 02:09:14,720 --> 02:09:18,200 Speaker 8: I think Vj's right. If leaves right, and I think 2840 02:09:18,240 --> 02:09:19,200 Speaker 8: Milwaukee's there. 2841 02:09:19,040 --> 02:09:22,440 Speaker 4: They're gonna that's the payback they we don't We've seen 2842 02:09:22,440 --> 02:09:25,680 Speaker 4: it with Lebron Leeds Cleveland. What happens guys, they give 2843 02:09:25,720 --> 02:09:29,280 Speaker 4: them two they get two number one picks. This if 2844 02:09:29,280 --> 02:09:32,080 Speaker 4: we're gonna do conspiracy theory, and I'll go through the team. 2845 02:09:32,160 --> 02:09:34,839 Speaker 3: The Wizards just got Trey Young and a d. Okay, 2846 02:09:34,920 --> 02:09:35,600 Speaker 3: you can't get the. 2847 02:09:35,600 --> 02:09:36,240 Speaker 4: Number one pick. 2848 02:09:36,440 --> 02:09:36,800 Speaker 3: Bulls. 2849 02:09:36,840 --> 02:09:39,480 Speaker 4: We've done you enough favorites, you're not getting it. Nets, 2850 02:09:39,600 --> 02:09:42,240 Speaker 4: you don't mean enough Pacers. You have a star, you 2851 02:09:42,280 --> 02:09:44,480 Speaker 4: were just in the finals. He's got a gold medal. 2852 02:09:44,560 --> 02:09:48,200 Speaker 4: You're not getting it. The Jazz, you don't matter to 2853 02:09:48,240 --> 02:09:51,480 Speaker 4: the NBA at all. You don't met stalking them alone 2854 02:09:51,520 --> 02:09:54,360 Speaker 4: as a long time, even when Donovan Mitchell was there. 2855 02:09:54,560 --> 02:09:57,080 Speaker 4: You guys never thought Donovan Mitchell was taking them. No, 2856 02:09:57,240 --> 02:10:00,080 Speaker 4: damn where, Let's not go there, Pelicans, We're trying. I 2857 02:10:00,080 --> 02:10:02,520 Speaker 4: had to look out for you several times. We gave 2858 02:10:02,560 --> 02:10:04,880 Speaker 4: you a D and we gave you Zion and look 2859 02:10:04,920 --> 02:10:08,760 Speaker 4: what you've done. And then the Kings absolutely not. They 2860 02:10:08,800 --> 02:10:11,640 Speaker 4: will never do the Kings any famals. So that leads, 2861 02:10:11,640 --> 02:10:15,280 Speaker 4: so that leads the Bucks and my one B team. 2862 02:10:14,920 --> 02:10:16,560 Speaker 8: The Grizzly. 2863 02:10:16,640 --> 02:10:19,400 Speaker 4: Thank you if they do what bo if they move, 2864 02:10:20,000 --> 02:10:24,280 Speaker 4: if they move a lot of let me tell you something. 2865 02:10:24,320 --> 02:10:27,480 Speaker 2: So the other night, there's always there's always some sucker. 2866 02:10:27,560 --> 02:10:29,440 Speaker 2: I think they can change the Leopards. 2867 02:10:29,960 --> 02:10:31,840 Speaker 4: So the other night, not gonna put his name out. 2868 02:10:31,920 --> 02:10:34,600 Speaker 4: I'm talking to an NBA guy at the Laker Clipper game. 2869 02:10:34,760 --> 02:10:37,000 Speaker 4: After the game, we're sitting on the chairs on the bench, 2870 02:10:37,200 --> 02:10:40,240 Speaker 4: they're cleaning up the court, and he told me, he 2871 02:10:40,360 --> 02:10:43,880 Speaker 4: goes there are four teams I've talked to.

There are 2882 02:11:11,360 --> 02:11:15,040 Speaker 4: four teams that could that will look at John and 2883 02:11:15,080 --> 02:11:16,600 Speaker 4: just sit them down and say get a film from 2884 02:11:16,680 --> 02:11:18,160 Speaker 4: him and say do you want to. 2885 02:11:18,200 --> 02:11:19,200 Speaker 3: Change your career or not? 2886 02:11:19,320 --> 02:11:22,640 Speaker 4: Because right now you're you almost don't matter in this 2887 02:11:22,720 --> 02:11:26,080 Speaker 4: league with all your talent, you almost don't matter. But 2888 02:11:26,120 --> 02:11:28,160 Speaker 4: he's got to get out of Memphis. It's like you 2889 02:11:28,200 --> 02:11:29,640 Speaker 4: said about your door in Cleveland. 2890 02:11:29,920 --> 02:11:33,000 Speaker 3: But dog, what have we ever seen Memphis successful guys? 2891 02:11:33,520 --> 02:11:36,880 Speaker 2: If I was Shador Sanders. I would beg outg beg. 2892 02:11:36,720 --> 02:11:41,200 Speaker 3: Out if I found talent, I beg out of Memphis, 2893 02:11:41,280 --> 02:11:46,400 Speaker 3: all right. Coming up on the other side, when it 2894 02:11:46,440 --> 02:11:47,040 Speaker 3: comes to. 2895 02:11:49,000 --> 02:11:56,600 Speaker 2: Judging the greatest sporting events in America, there is one 2896 02:11:56,640 --> 02:12:00,760 Speaker 2: that's so clearly at the top of the list. Nothing 2897 02:12:00,800 --> 02:12:01,440 Speaker 2: can change it. 2898 02:12:03,520 --> 02:12:05,440 Speaker 3: Tell you what it is, you'll fire, She teases the 2899 02:12:05,480 --> 02:12:05,840 Speaker 3: day man. 2900 02:12:06,040 --> 02:12:09,880 Speaker 2: This is Fox Sports Sunday, Harman and Husky. Here, Fox 2901 02:12:09,920 --> 02:12:15,640 Speaker 2: Sports Sunday. We're on the Fox Sports radio studios. We 2902 02:12:15,760 --> 02:12:19,000 Speaker 2: recognize the fact that you listening out there may have 2903 02:12:19,080 --> 02:12:23,520 Speaker 2: your favorite sport and that that sports marquee event is 2904 02:12:23,560 --> 02:12:24,040 Speaker 2: your event. 2905 02:12:24,160 --> 02:12:26,400 Speaker 3: It could be the super Bowl, it could be the 2906 02:12:26,440 --> 02:12:29,400 Speaker 3: World Series, could be the NBA Finals, could be the 2907 02:12:29,440 --> 02:12:30,520 Speaker 3: Stanley Cup Final. 2908 02:12:31,680 --> 02:12:34,480 Speaker 2: Maybe it's stealing the gains. Maybe it's the World Cup. 2909 02:12:34,560 --> 02:12:37,200 Speaker 2: Maybe it's the Daytona five hundred, the Indy five hundred. 2910 02:12:37,560 --> 02:12:41,200 Speaker 2: There's all kinds of great sporty events in this country. 2911 02:12:40,880 --> 02:12:50,440 Speaker 3: And curland championships very possibly, but there is only one 2912 02:12:51,800 --> 02:13:00,720 Speaker 3: that transcends its actual sport, only one, and that is 2913 02:13:00,760 --> 02:13:01,800 Speaker 3: March Madness. 2914 02:13:03,560 --> 02:13:07,440 Speaker 2: So I'm looking at the projected NBA draft top nine 2915 02:13:07,440 --> 02:13:11,400 Speaker 2: picks are all freshmen. One and gun rights, so they 2916 02:13:11,440 --> 02:13:14,040 Speaker 2: don't have any roots. You know, it becomes a trivia. 2917 02:13:14,320 --> 02:13:17,720 Speaker 2: My younger son is a huge NBA fan. He's constantly 2918 02:13:17,800 --> 02:13:20,040 Speaker 2: asking me about where did this guy go to school? 2919 02:13:21,120 --> 02:13:23,880 Speaker 2: And honestly, I can't recall most of them unless they 2920 02:13:23,880 --> 02:13:25,960 Speaker 2: had a deep run in the tournament. You know, I 2921 02:13:26,280 --> 02:13:28,120 Speaker 2: don't know because they almost all of them were won 2922 02:13:28,160 --> 02:13:33,840 Speaker 2: and done right. When you look at the all tournament 2923 02:13:33,920 --> 02:13:37,520 Speaker 2: teams of the final fours over the last twelve years, 2924 02:13:37,960 --> 02:13:41,120 Speaker 2: even the mops, it's literally a who's who of who's 2925 02:13:41,160 --> 02:13:44,760 Speaker 2: that you are seeing names that you do not recognize 2926 02:13:44,760 --> 02:13:48,800 Speaker 2: because most of them never play in the NBA, because 2927 02:13:48,840 --> 02:13:51,280 Speaker 2: if you play more than a year, you're deemed not 2928 02:13:51,400 --> 02:13:54,600 Speaker 2: worthy of being in the NBA. If you're NBA ready, 2929 02:13:54,600 --> 02:13:58,840 Speaker 2: if you're going to be a projected star, you're one 2930 02:13:58,880 --> 02:14:01,920 Speaker 2: and done. So you really have had zero impact on 2931 02:14:01,960 --> 02:14:06,960 Speaker 2: the college game. And yet, despite that, despite the fact 2932 02:14:06,960 --> 02:14:11,920 Speaker 2: that the overwhelming majority of you out there that will 2933 02:14:12,040 --> 02:14:15,480 Speaker 2: join hundreds of millions of brackets that are going to 2934 02:14:15,520 --> 02:14:18,320 Speaker 2: be filled out for March Madness, you will go into 2935 02:14:18,360 --> 02:14:22,920 Speaker 2: the tournament with no idea of a single player in 2936 02:14:22,960 --> 02:14:26,080 Speaker 2: that tournament, not a single player you may know some 2937 02:14:26,120 --> 02:14:30,640 Speaker 2: of the coaches, but you will not know a single player. 2938 02:14:32,080 --> 02:14:34,040 Speaker 2: Maybe you have your own school, maybe you know your 2939 02:14:34,040 --> 02:14:39,120 Speaker 2: own schools player, but you will not know any other players. 2940 02:14:40,200 --> 02:14:43,640 Speaker 2: And yet you will sit down and you will fill 2941 02:14:43,680 --> 02:14:44,520 Speaker 2: out that bracket. 2942 02:14:44,560 --> 02:14:48,560 Speaker 3: And I've said this, and I think you might agree 2943 02:14:48,560 --> 02:14:49,200 Speaker 3: with me on this one. 2944 02:14:49,320 --> 02:14:49,560 Speaker 4: VJ. 2945 02:14:49,800 --> 02:14:53,200 Speaker 2: All right, the first two full days, not talking about 2946 02:14:53,240 --> 02:14:57,320 Speaker 2: the first four, but the first Thursday and Friday, when 2947 02:14:57,320 --> 02:15:01,200 Speaker 2: you have sixteen games each of those days, those days 2948 02:15:01,840 --> 02:15:07,360 Speaker 2: should be national holidays because nobody is working that day. 2949 02:15:07,520 --> 02:15:11,440 Speaker 2: All you're doing is is you're staring at your brackets. 2950 02:15:10,880 --> 02:15:12,120 Speaker 3: For two straight days. 2951 02:15:12,760 --> 02:15:15,240 Speaker 2: You know, after the first two days, maybe through that 2952 02:15:15,280 --> 02:15:18,000 Speaker 2: first week, because you're gonna go from you know, sixty 2953 02:15:18,040 --> 02:15:20,920 Speaker 2: eight all the way down to sixteen and whether you're 2954 02:15:20,960 --> 02:15:23,640 Speaker 2: still in it or not, but those first two days, 2955 02:15:24,600 --> 02:15:27,720 Speaker 2: you got the morning games, you got the afternoon evening games. 2956 02:15:28,320 --> 02:15:31,080 Speaker 2: You're doing nothing but staring at your brackets. The whole 2957 02:15:31,160 --> 02:15:37,360 Speaker 2: country is staring at brackets. And so this is why, 2958 02:15:37,440 --> 02:15:40,480 Speaker 2: even if you're not a college basketball fan, and I 2959 02:15:40,520 --> 02:15:45,000 Speaker 2: would beg to say that, I'll guess that eighty percent, 2960 02:15:45,520 --> 02:15:48,440 Speaker 2: maybe even higher, people that fill out brackets do not 2961 02:15:48,520 --> 02:15:52,760 Speaker 2: fall at college basketball but that bracket is an institution 2962 02:15:52,920 --> 02:15:56,360 Speaker 2: in this country and it's unlike any other sporting event 2963 02:15:56,720 --> 02:15:59,960 Speaker 2: period in this country. It doesn't matter who. When we 2964 02:16:00,160 --> 02:16:02,880 Speaker 2: talk about even Super Bowls, we want a good match. 2965 02:16:02,920 --> 02:16:05,120 Speaker 2: And we were talking about this year you had two teams, 2966 02:16:05,520 --> 02:16:08,800 Speaker 2: Sam Darnold versus Drake May. Sorry did not excite me, right, 2967 02:16:11,280 --> 02:16:16,320 Speaker 2: but it doesn't matter. With March Madness, it does not matter. 2968 02:16:16,440 --> 02:16:19,480 Speaker 2: The event is bigger than its sport itself. And that's 2969 02:16:19,520 --> 02:16:24,080 Speaker 2: why I believe when we talk about Greatest, it is 2970 02:16:24,320 --> 02:16:29,640 Speaker 2: the most embraced sporting event in this country because it's 2971 02:16:29,720 --> 02:16:33,760 Speaker 2: something that every single person gets involved with, everyone going 2972 02:16:33,840 --> 02:16:35,560 Speaker 2: to get engaged and fill out a. 2973 02:16:35,480 --> 02:16:38,840 Speaker 3: Bracket and there is no other sporting event like it. 2974 02:16:39,000 --> 02:16:40,800 Speaker 4: Well, not only that, but also for this year to 2975 02:16:40,959 --> 02:16:44,080 Speaker 4: all the freshmen. So we just talked about in mock drafts, 2976 02:16:44,120 --> 02:16:46,959 Speaker 4: the first eight or nine guys going are freshman, first 2977 02:16:47,040 --> 02:16:49,680 Speaker 4: nine and going to freshman. So I had this auto 2978 02:16:49,840 --> 02:16:53,320 Speaker 4: draft AI thing that I did here doing a commercial 2979 02:16:53,320 --> 02:16:54,600 Speaker 4: break while we were sitting here talking. 2980 02:16:55,000 --> 02:16:57,000 Speaker 3: So Chris, you might want to perk up for this 2981 02:16:57,040 --> 02:16:57,400 Speaker 3: one man. 2982 02:16:57,600 --> 02:17:00,560 Speaker 4: This is a team you mentioned the AI spit out 2983 02:17:00,600 --> 02:17:03,560 Speaker 4: the Kings having the number one pick and them taking 2984 02:17:03,760 --> 02:17:08,680 Speaker 4: Darren Darren Peterson from from Kansas. Yeah, the Wizards, two 2985 02:17:09,320 --> 02:17:12,440 Speaker 4: Pelicans three. That's how they is how the AI thing 2986 02:17:12,840 --> 02:17:15,959 Speaker 4: spit it back out to me here on the USA 2987 02:17:16,000 --> 02:17:19,680 Speaker 4: Today app. So if you want to learn about March Madness, 2988 02:17:19,720 --> 02:17:21,240 Speaker 4: just find out who these freshmen are, because that's what 2989 02:17:21,240 --> 02:17:23,600 Speaker 4: it's gonna be all about. You got Michigan, so let's look. Look, look, 2990 02:17:23,640 --> 02:17:25,320 Speaker 4: you got Michigan. Michigan has been the power team for 2991 02:17:25,360 --> 02:17:27,840 Speaker 4: them inside. And then you got a bunch of freshmen, 2992 02:17:27,879 --> 02:17:30,920 Speaker 4: so it's Michigan. And then you got all these freshmen 2993 02:17:31,360 --> 02:17:34,039 Speaker 4: that I think are gonna garner most of the eyes 2994 02:17:34,080 --> 02:17:35,720 Speaker 4: and most of the attention. But I'm also with you 2995 02:17:35,760 --> 02:17:38,840 Speaker 4: on March Madness. That third I put to you, like this, 2996 02:17:39,240 --> 02:17:42,520 Speaker 4: Thursday is more fund than Friday because Thursday is the 2997 02:17:42,560 --> 02:17:43,040 Speaker 4: first day. 2998 02:17:43,080 --> 02:17:45,440 Speaker 3: Friday is still the same, it's still the same sixteen 2999 02:17:45,520 --> 02:17:48,400 Speaker 3: sixteen sixteen, Well it's it's the second day. 3000 02:17:48,480 --> 02:17:52,960 Speaker 4: But Thursday it's really good because if you get a 3001 02:17:53,000 --> 02:17:57,920 Speaker 4: big upset Thursday, it sets up for a real good Saturday. 3002 02:17:58,360 --> 02:18:01,280 Speaker 4: Right Sunday, you might be running around with the kids 3003 02:18:01,360 --> 02:18:03,720 Speaker 4: and doing family stuff when you're married in guy kids, 3004 02:18:03,800 --> 02:18:05,520 Speaker 4: or if you ain't got kids. You're just married wife's 3005 02:18:06,000 --> 02:18:07,760 Speaker 4: wife's dragging you to this to drag you that, or 3006 02:18:07,920 --> 02:18:09,640 Speaker 4: hubbies dragging you this or dragging you that you might 3007 02:18:09,680 --> 02:18:12,200 Speaker 4: miss out on Sunday Thursday is Saturday. 3008 02:18:12,200 --> 02:18:13,800 Speaker 3: To me are my two favorite days. 3009 02:18:14,080 --> 02:18:17,520 Speaker 4: And then as the time goes on, you get teams 3010 02:18:17,520 --> 02:18:20,000 Speaker 4: that kind of get weeded out. And then now from 3011 02:18:20,000 --> 02:18:23,199 Speaker 4: that point moving forward, it's about the blue Bloods. I'm 3012 02:18:23,360 --> 02:18:28,360 Speaker 4: all for Cinderella until about the Sweet sixteen. Like, if 3013 02:18:28,360 --> 02:18:30,760 Speaker 4: you get through the first weekend as an eleven or 3014 02:18:30,800 --> 02:18:35,240 Speaker 4: twelve of thirteen and you get to Sweet sixteen weekend, okay, 3015 02:18:35,480 --> 02:18:37,600 Speaker 4: sweet sixteen, going to get to blue blood I need 3016 02:18:37,600 --> 02:18:39,200 Speaker 4: my blue blood to go ahead and win because I 3017 02:18:39,200 --> 02:18:40,920 Speaker 4: need the Elite eight. I want the best of the 3018 02:18:40,959 --> 02:18:42,960 Speaker 4: best in the Elite eight, and then I want all 3019 02:18:43,000 --> 02:18:45,080 Speaker 4: blue Bloods in the final four. This is nothing new. 3020 02:18:45,120 --> 02:18:47,640 Speaker 4: I've said this plenty of times, don't you know. I 3021 02:18:47,680 --> 02:18:50,920 Speaker 4: don't care about Florida Atlantic. I know Florida International and 3022 02:18:51,400 --> 02:18:53,840 Speaker 4: you know Texas Tech. One year, No, man, give me, 3023 02:18:53,879 --> 02:18:56,720 Speaker 4: give me the blue Bloods, Give me the Carolinas, the Dukes. 3024 02:18:56,760 --> 02:18:58,920 Speaker 4: Give me like Michigan is the best team in the nation. 3025 02:18:58,959 --> 02:19:00,640 Speaker 4: I need them in the final four. I don't need 3026 02:19:00,680 --> 02:19:03,000 Speaker 4: them getting upset in the Elite eight. I don't need 3027 02:19:03,040 --> 02:19:05,320 Speaker 4: I need Iszo. Give me Iso at least an Elite eight. 3028 02:19:05,600 --> 02:19:07,520 Speaker 4: I need it. I don't need Iszo going home in 3029 02:19:07,560 --> 02:19:11,920 Speaker 4: around of thirty two. That's not beneficial for the brackets. 3030 02:19:11,920 --> 02:19:14,959 Speaker 4: So I'm agree. I agree with you as far everybody 3031 02:19:15,040 --> 02:19:17,280 Speaker 4: does it. It's like the super Bowl, and super Bowl 3032 02:19:17,360 --> 02:19:20,600 Speaker 4: is bigger, but everybody does I think it's too as 3033 02:19:20,640 --> 02:19:21,520 Speaker 4: far as second place. 3034 02:19:21,560 --> 02:19:24,400 Speaker 3: As far as even if you don't watch the sport. 3035 02:19:24,160 --> 02:19:26,480 Speaker 2: Like with the super Bowl or people don't, far more 3036 02:19:26,560 --> 02:19:29,240 Speaker 2: people fill out a bracket than bet on the super Bowl, 3037 02:19:29,680 --> 02:19:31,480 Speaker 2: and a lot of people bet on the super Bowl. 3038 02:19:31,560 --> 02:19:34,040 Speaker 2: But as far as filling out bracket might be, you 3039 02:19:34,080 --> 02:19:36,240 Speaker 2: might be right there filling out brackets now. 3040 02:19:36,320 --> 02:19:37,119 Speaker 3: But it's more games. 3041 02:19:37,120 --> 02:19:39,120 Speaker 2: That's why the super host just I'm gonna show you 3042 02:19:39,600 --> 02:19:42,560 Speaker 2: last year would happen here at Fox Sports Radio. So 3043 02:19:42,640 --> 02:19:45,039 Speaker 2: all of the hosts here we fill out our brackets 3044 02:19:45,040 --> 02:19:48,360 Speaker 2: in a big contest. And I did something last year 3045 02:19:48,400 --> 02:19:49,920 Speaker 2: that I didn't think possible. 3046 02:19:50,160 --> 02:19:55,080 Speaker 3: In the first day, you will like then you go 3047 02:19:55,160 --> 02:19:58,080 Speaker 3: like fifteen sixteen and sixteen sixteen. 3048 02:19:58,160 --> 02:20:00,480 Speaker 2: Oh, in the first day first day, I had a 3049 02:20:00,600 --> 02:20:04,039 Speaker 2: perfect and there was right there. Look at that sixteen 3050 02:20:04,120 --> 02:20:05,680 Speaker 2: out of sixteen that first day. 3051 02:20:07,640 --> 02:20:10,840 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah, you rich Quinn Maine. There it is. 3052 02:20:11,200 --> 02:20:12,640 Speaker 3: I I've never thought. 3053 02:20:12,680 --> 02:20:15,920 Speaker 2: I've been doing brackets for forty plus years. I never 3054 02:20:16,120 --> 02:20:18,920 Speaker 2: pulled it off. But I actually had a perfect sixteen 3055 02:20:19,040 --> 02:20:21,160 Speaker 2: for sixteen first day. By the way, I did not 3056 02:20:21,240 --> 02:20:24,240 Speaker 2: win because my my I had upsets all over the place. 3057 02:20:24,000 --> 02:20:28,440 Speaker 3: That everybody's back down. I was sitting there and it 3058 02:20:28,480 --> 02:20:31,400 Speaker 3: came down and I did it. I actually had a 3059 02:20:31,560 --> 02:20:35,080 Speaker 3: perfect day, sixteen out of sixty. 3060 02:20:34,920 --> 02:20:37,360 Speaker 4: Documented right there. Have you ever had a perfect do you? 3061 02:20:37,360 --> 02:20:39,039 Speaker 4: Can you remember just on the top of your brain? 3062 02:20:39,080 --> 02:20:41,960 Speaker 4: Have you ever had a perfect Final four? I've had 3063 02:20:41,959 --> 02:20:44,320 Speaker 4: a few, like the last ten fifteen years, and. 3064 02:20:44,840 --> 02:20:47,400 Speaker 3: I don't think so two times. I've had three for sure, 3065 02:20:47,440 --> 02:20:49,920 Speaker 3: but not four. No, No, I got the Final four, right, 3066 02:20:50,240 --> 02:20:52,640 Speaker 3: I mean I've had I know.

Seven, 3068 02:20:57,040 --> 02:20:57,480 Speaker 3: but then. 3069 02:20:57,720 --> 02:20:59,680 Speaker 2: One of them was a Final four team. I might 3070 02:20:59,720 --> 02:21:00,959 Speaker 2: have been the championship team. 3071 02:21:00,959 --> 02:21:02,440 Speaker 3: But yeah, I actually pulled it. 3072 02:21:02,520 --> 02:21:04,840 Speaker 2: Last year, I did a sixteen for sixteen on the 3073 02:21:04,840 --> 02:21:07,520 Speaker 2: first day, all right, which I never thought was possible. 3074 02:21:07,520 --> 02:21:09,400 Speaker 4: I'm excited for this year man because it's gonna because 3075 02:21:09,879 --> 02:21:13,000 Speaker 4: which freshman speaking of these freshmen, like, which freshman is 3076 02:21:13,040 --> 02:21:15,160 Speaker 4: gonna take over a really carried her team? 3077 02:21:15,240 --> 02:21:18,120 Speaker 2: Well, there's never been a freshman like Carmelo Anthony.

And then he 3082 02:21:30,560 --> 02:21:33,520 Speaker 2: just absolutely ran right through it and Syracuse and not 3083 02:21:33,680 --> 02:21:36,959 Speaker 2: Peheim finally got his one and only NCAA championship. 3084 02:21:37,000 --> 02:21:38,840 Speaker 3: Can I pick on the national championship game? 3085 02:21:38,920 --> 02:21:39,120 Speaker 1: Though? 3086 02:21:40,440 --> 02:21:45,480 Speaker 3: Kansas?

By the way, Bunnie's a 3090 02:21:53,160 --> 02:21:55,680 Speaker 3: friend of mine. I have been a friend of Bonnie 3091 02:21:55,680 --> 02:21:56,640 Speaker 3: Bernstein for years. 3092 02:21:56,959 --> 02:21:59,920 Speaker 4: They don't get Carolina. I only care about these kids. 3093 02:22:01,000 --> 02:22:02,480 Speaker 4: And then he came to Carolina. 3094 02:22:02,640 --> 02:22:05,119 Speaker 3: How long after that game? How long did it say? 3095 02:22:06,959 --> 02:22:10,040 Speaker 3: How long after that game before he ditched Kansas to 3096 02:22:10,080 --> 02:22:11,600 Speaker 3: go to North Carolina next morning? 3097 02:22:11,760 --> 02:22:15,080 Speaker 4: It's not happens, and then went and hung banners. 3098 02:22:15,400 --> 02:22:17,959 Speaker 3: If you go to speaking of banners, his banners hanging 3099 02:22:18,000 --> 02:22:19,040 Speaker 3: up that Roy Williams put him. 3100 02:22:19,160 --> 02:22:22,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, that three of them, three of them, the one 3101 02:22:22,520 --> 02:22:24,920 Speaker 2: that killed me for that's the one I bet I 3102 02:22:25,040 --> 02:22:27,920 Speaker 2: had Carolina such bs. 3103 02:22:28,080 --> 02:22:28,600 Speaker 3: No, no, no, no no. 3104 02:22:28,800 --> 02:22:31,680 Speaker 2: I'm talking about losing the Villanova on the buzzer beater. 3105 02:22:31,800 --> 02:22:34,119 Speaker 4: That's the game I'm talking about. If you remember, Carolina's 3106 02:22:34,160 --> 02:22:36,879 Speaker 4: up eleven. Carolina's up eleven in that game, and I'm 3107 02:22:36,920 --> 02:22:40,320 Speaker 4: on the show with Chris Broussard before that game that 3108 02:22:40,400 --> 02:22:44,600 Speaker 4: week leading up, I said, if the referees start blowing 3109 02:22:44,600 --> 02:22:47,760 Speaker 4: the whistles and slow this game down, Carolina could be 3110 02:22:47,800 --> 02:22:50,640 Speaker 4: in trouble. But if they let these kids play up 3111 02:22:50,680 --> 02:22:53,480 Speaker 4: and down the court, Carolina's gonna whoop there ass. 3112 02:22:53,520 --> 02:22:55,000 Speaker 3: Carolina is up eleven. 3113 02:22:55,280 --> 02:22:58,800 Speaker 4: They're beating the hell out of Villanova, and then the 3114 02:22:58,840 --> 02:23:03,440 Speaker 4: whistles start and it starts to slow that game down 3115 02:23:03,760 --> 02:23:07,640 Speaker 4: and allows Villanova to get back into that game. 3116 02:23:08,040 --> 02:23:12,120 Speaker 3: Roy Williams should have easily hung banner. Here's the killer 3117 02:23:12,160 --> 02:23:12,320 Speaker 3: in that. 3118 02:23:13,040 --> 02:23:15,720 Speaker 2: So I have a newscaster I work with, and she 3119 02:23:16,160 --> 02:23:18,920 Speaker 2: knew again one of those people knows nothing right but 3120 02:23:19,000 --> 02:23:20,400 Speaker 2: she goes, I want to fill out a bracket. I 3121 02:23:20,440 --> 02:23:22,200 Speaker 2: want to fall out. I'm like, okay, fine, I gave 3122 02:23:22,200 --> 02:23:24,800 Speaker 2: her a bracket. She's looking down the bracket. She goes, 3123 02:23:24,840 --> 02:23:31,320 Speaker 2: where's ball Streak. I go, no, that's ball state. And 3124 02:23:31,400 --> 02:23:34,640 Speaker 2: she thought ball streak. So she's from Philadelphia. So she 3125 02:23:34,760 --> 02:23:37,280 Speaker 2: picks Villanova to win it all that year. I picked 3126 02:23:37,400 --> 02:23:41,359 Speaker 2: UNC to win it all. There it is, they showing 3127 02:23:41,400 --> 02:23:42,080 Speaker 2: the bracket, and it. 3128 02:23:42,120 --> 02:23:45,320 Speaker 4: Showed they should have because the following the following year 3129 02:23:45,440 --> 02:23:49,039 Speaker 4: they go right back and they beat Againstzaga team that 3130 02:23:49,240 --> 02:23:51,720 Speaker 4: was better than that previous Villanova team. 3131 02:23:51,840 --> 02:23:52,080 Speaker 1: Yeah. 3132 02:23:52,200 --> 02:23:54,840 Speaker 3: Well, anyway, the Zags went down. All right, let's find 3133 02:23:54,840 --> 02:23:57,640 Speaker 3: out what's trending right now. Uh, here's a man that's 3134 02:23:57,640 --> 02:24:02,560 Speaker 3: already predicting that his Wolverines when there's second national championship 3135 02:24:02,959 --> 02:24:05,920 Speaker 3: going back to that great nineteen eighty nineteen with Glenn Rice. 3136 02:24:06,000 --> 02:24:09,000 Speaker 3: Steve Fisher, a dear friend of mine from his San 3137 02:24:09,040 --> 02:24:10,039 Speaker 3: Diego State days. 3138 02:24:10,560 --> 02:24:13,520 Speaker 1: Steve, why is it that in college basketball we count 3139 02:24:13,560 --> 02:24:14,320 Speaker 1: final fours? 3140 02:24:15,520 --> 02:24:19,240 Speaker 3: We count final fours? I think it's a great question 3141 02:24:19,360 --> 02:24:21,640 Speaker 3: because when you think about because when. 3142 02:24:21,440 --> 02:24:26,039 Speaker 1: You said that, just now, second national championship since nineteen 3143 02:24:26,040 --> 02:24:28,440 Speaker 1: eighty nine. I was like, I didn't like the way 3144 02:24:28,480 --> 02:24:30,840 Speaker 1: it sounded. It sounds a lot better, will you say? 3145 02:24:31,560 --> 02:24:33,800 Speaker 1: You know, however many final fours? 3146 02:24:33,800 --> 02:24:37,080 Speaker 2: Well, I mentioned the fact final four Michigan lost the 3147 02:24:37,160 --> 02:24:41,800 Speaker 2: championship game in sixty five, seventy six, obviously ninety two 3148 02:24:41,800 --> 02:24:44,040 Speaker 2: and ninety three, and then of course the two b 3149 02:24:44,240 --> 02:24:49,000 Speaker 2: line losses in the championship game won in six. So 3150 02:24:49,240 --> 02:24:51,320 Speaker 2: I agree with you. I mean, UCLA has been to 3151 02:24:51,480 --> 02:24:54,320 Speaker 2: nineteen final fours, won eleven championships. 3152 02:24:54,680 --> 02:24:57,560 Speaker 3: There are no final four banners at PAULI only eleven 3153 02:24:57,840 --> 02:24:59,320 Speaker 3: banners for the championships. 3154 02:25:00,040 --> 02:25:02,520 Speaker 1: Agree that we count final fours in college basketball? 3155 02:25:02,640 --> 02:25:04,080 Speaker 4: Yes, and we should, Like. 3156 02:25:04,080 --> 02:25:06,879 Speaker 1: There's no idea like like the Buffalo Bills made the 3157 02:25:06,920 --> 02:25:07,560 Speaker 1: Final four. 3158 02:25:07,800 --> 02:25:11,640 Speaker 3: If you're a coach, if you're a college basketball once 3159 02:25:11,680 --> 02:25:15,760 Speaker 3: you have gotten to a final four, that's that's your legacy, 3160 02:25:16,040 --> 02:25:19,760 Speaker 3: your final four coach. Absolutely, Well, Steve. 3161 02:25:19,680 --> 02:25:21,600 Speaker 4: You know what I look, Steve does he's he keeps 3162 02:25:21,640 --> 02:25:23,440 Speaker 4: telling that your I mean, how many final fours do 3163 02:25:23,440 --> 02:25:23,680 Speaker 4: you see? 3164 02:25:23,680 --> 02:25:23,760 Speaker 3: All? 3165 02:25:23,800 --> 02:25:27,680 Speaker 4: I said nineteen?

That's right. 3169 02:25:33,200 --> 02:25:38,360 Speaker 4: We got the last huge cheat championship game up eight, 3170 02:25:38,560 --> 02:25:40,280 Speaker 4: up eight against Kansas, but you lost. 3171 02:25:40,360 --> 02:25:41,440 Speaker 1: The United States played ten. 3172 02:25:41,440 --> 02:25:44,240 Speaker 3: That was not a Kansas team either. Still seven gold 3173 02:25:44,280 --> 02:25:45,480 Speaker 3: medals in that one. 3174 02:25:46,240 --> 02:25:48,199 Speaker 1: They beat Canada two to one in overtime. 3175 02:25:48,320 --> 02:25:49,039 Speaker 4: Yes, they did. 3176 02:25:50,480 --> 02:25:53,800 Speaker 1: In overtime. That Steve Hartins said, what disheartening is on. 3177 02:25:53,760 --> 02:25:56,560 Speaker 2: The college and he goes, they have a man advantage. 3178 02:25:56,560 --> 02:25:58,160 Speaker 2: I'm like, it's three on three. 3179 02:25:58,600 --> 02:26:01,840 Speaker 1: Well, technically according to Kenny Albert from NBC it was 3180 02:26:01,879 --> 02:26:02,480 Speaker 1: three on two. 3181 02:26:03,959 --> 02:26:06,440 Speaker 2: Like about they got the man advantage.

Okay, yeah, I guess you 3183 02:26:09,560 --> 02:26:10,400 Speaker 2: could have three up. 3184 02:26:10,280 --> 02:26:13,600 Speaker 1: Two one forty six through the pipes by Jack Hughes 3185 02:26:13,920 --> 02:26:15,680 Speaker 1: to go ahead and get the two to one gold 3186 02:26:15,680 --> 02:26:17,560 Speaker 1: medal win. The number one start of the game, Connor 3187 02:26:17,600 --> 02:26:21,600 Speaker 1: hellibuok forty one of forty two shots stopped.

Lowis seed's ever won Villanova over g Town. 3220 02:27:49,959 --> 02:27:52,480 Speaker 2: They were in eight seed. Eight seed is the lowest 3221 02:27:52,520 --> 02:27:53,000 Speaker 2: I think there. 3222 02:27:52,920 --> 02:27:55,039 Speaker 4: Were Alana could have got if they had won, because 3223 02:27:55,040 --> 02:27:56,320 Speaker 4: when the Huber took them, they were eight. 3224 02:27:56,520 --> 02:27:58,800 Speaker 2: The lowest seed to get to the final fours in eleven. 3225 02:27:58,879 --> 02:28:01,360 Speaker 2: Eleven is as far as goes there. But yeah, I 3226 02:28:01,400 --> 02:28:03,879 Speaker 2: mean I was at the final fire. I remember in six. 3227 02:28:03,920 --> 02:28:05,920 Speaker 2: I covered a lot of fun when George Mason got there. 3228 02:28:05,959 --> 02:28:09,520 Speaker 2: They upset Ukon U Kon and the Elite eight and 3229 02:28:09,640 --> 02:28:12,280 Speaker 2: somehow punch their ticket to the Final four. But then 3230 02:28:12,680 --> 02:28:14,520 Speaker 2: the thing about I will say this, if you have 3231 02:28:14,640 --> 02:28:16,599 Speaker 2: never been to a Final. 3232 02:28:16,280 --> 02:28:19,400 Speaker 3: Four, do it. It should be. 3233 02:28:19,320 --> 02:28:23,000 Speaker 2: If you're an overall sports fan, attend a final four. 3234 02:28:23,160 --> 02:28:26,840 Speaker 2: I mean it is because you have four schools there, 3235 02:28:26,959 --> 02:28:28,800 Speaker 2: you get all the different you know, and it's young, 3236 02:28:28,920 --> 02:28:32,360 Speaker 2: it's college. It's just a certain vibe to it. It 3237 02:28:32,440 --> 02:28:36,320 Speaker 2: also coincides with the NABC, the National Association of Basketball 3238 02:28:36,400 --> 02:28:42,040 Speaker 2: Coaches Conference, so coaches just it's everywhere, and you get 3239 02:28:42,040 --> 02:28:46,480 Speaker 2: to that semi final Saturday. You know, sometimes the championship 3240 02:28:46,520 --> 02:28:49,240 Speaker 2: game could be anti climatic. Sometimes it's the white one, 3241 02:28:49,280 --> 02:28:52,320 Speaker 2: but sometimes it could be. But that semi finals in 3242 02:28:52,400 --> 02:28:54,120 Speaker 2: a few couple of days, you go out to the 3243 02:28:54,200 --> 02:28:57,560 Speaker 2: practices and you see all the different teams work out. 3244 02:28:57,640 --> 02:28:59,400 Speaker 2: I mean, I just I used to love it. 3245 02:28:59,400 --> 02:28:59,920 Speaker 3: I mean, I cover. 3246 02:29:00,120 --> 02:29:02,000 Speaker 2: I used to cover the Super Bowl and the Final 3247 02:29:02,040 --> 02:29:06,720 Speaker 2: four every single year for decades, and they're really comparing 3248 02:29:06,760 --> 02:29:10,199 Speaker 2: apples and oranges. But the there's something about the atmosphere 3249 02:29:10,240 --> 02:29:13,040 Speaker 2: around a Final four to me, is tough to beat. 3250 02:29:13,320 --> 02:29:15,400 Speaker 4: I'm very touch.

I mean there have 3303 02:31:21,680 --> 02:31:25,520 Speaker 2: been I think two years total they started seating in 3304 02:31:25,560 --> 02:31:29,200 Speaker 2: nineteen seventy nine, only two years total where all four 3305 02:31:29,280 --> 02:31:31,520 Speaker 2: number one seeds made it to the final four exactly 3306 02:31:31,520 --> 02:31:34,800 Speaker 2: that Remember one of the years was eight with the UCLA, Memphis, 3307 02:31:34,840 --> 02:31:36,359 Speaker 2: North Carolina and Kansas. 3308 02:31:36,400 --> 02:31:39,360 Speaker 3: That year we're four number one seeds. It's very rare. 3309 02:31:40,400 --> 02:31:44,080 Speaker 3: Another heartbreaking final four loss from our talks, Well, that was. 3310 02:31:44,040 --> 02:31:47,040 Speaker 2: The unbelievable year because Kansas. I thought North Carolina was 3311 02:31:47,080 --> 02:31:49,800 Speaker 2: going to beat Kansas and they didn't, right, and then 3312 02:31:50,160 --> 02:31:51,879 Speaker 2: Memphis obviously beat UCLA. 3313 02:31:52,040 --> 02:31:54,200 Speaker 3: And then yeah, I. 3314 02:31:54,120 --> 02:31:57,560 Speaker 1: Got to ask you this, if Michigan's did you believe 3315 02:31:57,560 --> 02:32:00,000 Speaker 1: that Michigan had a chance to win a national championship 3316 02:32:00,200 --> 02:32:03,480 Speaker 1: before yesterday's game and the loss to Duke kind of rattled? 3317 02:32:03,520 --> 02:32:07,600 Speaker 3: Now? Absolutely not. I'm just getting on you because you know, 3318 02:32:08,440 --> 02:32:11,640 Speaker 3: I'm going back to nineteen ninety two. You remember Michigan 3319 02:32:11,720 --> 02:32:14,400 Speaker 3: was leading that game with the Fab five freshman at 3320 02:32:14,440 --> 02:32:17,480 Speaker 3: halftime and Christian Laytner was so bad in that half. 3321 02:32:17,520 --> 02:32:20,120 Speaker 3: Everyone even coach k was like, what the hell is 3322 02:32:20,240 --> 02:32:22,680 Speaker 3: wrong with you? And then they end up winning the 3323 02:32:22,720 --> 02:32:25,040 Speaker 3: game by he won the game by twenty or something. 3324 02:32:25,040 --> 02:32:27,520 Speaker 1: So I'm just wondering, like in the seventies, did you 3325 02:32:27,600 --> 02:32:30,360 Speaker 1: not believe in UCLA until like, you know, I hated 3326 02:32:30,600 --> 02:32:33,600 Speaker 1: seventy two, ninety no idea.

So there it is. I 3335 02:32:51,720 --> 02:32:54,640 Speaker 3: just wanted to buck the system, Michigan or Arizona. 3336 02:32:56,240 --> 02:32:58,920 Speaker 2: Arizona got a little shaky, but they came up with 3337 02:32:58,959 --> 02:33:00,000 Speaker 2: a nice win against Houston. 3338 02:33:00,160 --> 02:33:02,760 Speaker 3: I mean that was a yeah, it was a big, 3339 02:33:02,840 --> 02:33:05,960 Speaker 3: big one. There's a guy, Kevin Sampson. I thought last 3340 02:33:06,000 --> 02:33:08,520 Speaker 3: year was his year. It really was in Florida.

There See, there's no worse loss than that 3352 02:33:36,560 --> 02:33:39,160 Speaker 2: Elite eight because you're so invested two weeks invested in 3353 02:33:39,160 --> 02:33:40,960 Speaker 2: the tournament, one step from the final. 3354 02:33:41,160 --> 02:33:43,160 Speaker 4: The worst one is the U mass loss.

That does kind of, you know, 3489 02:39:33,200 --> 02:39:35,800 Speaker 4: because it throws a little monkey wrench in your your 3490 02:39:35,840 --> 02:39:38,360 Speaker 4: pregame plans and you're on the court action you want 3491 02:39:38,360 --> 02:39:39,080 Speaker 4: to get as it. 3492 02:39:39,320 --> 02:39:42,720 Speaker 2: Well, if you're a Laker fan, you know amazing.
