1
00:00:01,040 --> 00:00:03,760
Speaker 1: You're listening to Fox Sports Radio.

2
00:00:04,120 --> 00:00:06,840
Speaker 2: US women are about to get their gold medals, and

3
00:00:06,880 --> 00:00:10,600
Speaker 2: then we can extinguish the torch on the twenty twenty

4

Speaker 2: four Summer Olympics. You will not be burning out our flame, though,

11
00:00:31,400 --> 00:00:33,559
Speaker 2: buying should be if you know me. It was a

12
00:00:33,560 --> 00:00:35,600
Speaker 2: bit tongue in cheek in terms of the hot takes,

13
00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:39,000
Speaker 2: but there is a hot topic on hand, and it's

14
00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:43,520
Speaker 2: a topic that has dominated sports talk radio, I would

15
00:00:43,560 --> 00:00:46,280
Speaker 2: say for the last I don't know, four or five months,

16
00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:51,360
Speaker 2: and it culminates today with the US women's basketball team

17
00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:56,360
Speaker 2: winning the gold medal, and we are talking about a

18
00:00:56,360 --> 00:00:59,280
Speaker 2: person who's not even on the team that won the

19
00:00:59,320 --> 00:01:02,120
Speaker 2: gold medal. But that's where this conversation goes. And I

20
00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:05,800
Speaker 2: don't want it to be a manufactured Caitlin Clark conversation,

21
00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:10,360
Speaker 2: but in this realm that we're in of social media

22
00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:14,160
Speaker 2: and sports talk radio, there were many of people who

23
00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:19,560
Speaker 2: were cheering against Team USA today because they wanted Caitlin

24
00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:23,800
Speaker 2: Clark on that team and they wanted a reason to

25
00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:28,160
Speaker 2: point to that Caitlyn Clark should have been on that team.

26
00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:30,800
Speaker 2: And that is where we are today. And if it

27
00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:33,759
Speaker 2: wasn't for a foot on the line by Gabby Williams

28
00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:37,680
Speaker 2: of France, which, by the way, if this was the

29
00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:41,399
Speaker 2: Americans taking the shot that was attempted at the end,

30
00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:43,560
Speaker 2: we would be talking about it. If this was the

31
00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:45,880
Speaker 2: men's team, would be talking about it. Kind of move

32
00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:49,480
Speaker 2: past it because it happened to France. But to be

33
00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:51,640
Speaker 2: down three and then shoot a three with your foot

34
00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:55,680
Speaker 2: on the line at the buzzer is a complete faux

35
00:01:55,720 --> 00:02:00,040
Speaker 2: paw and a mental error that I understand the the

36
00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:03,760
Speaker 2: game actually that's going on, but you the one thing

37
00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:05,720
Speaker 2: that you just can't do is take it to and

38
00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:08,080
Speaker 2: shoot it too. That's what ended up happening. But I

39
00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:10,359
Speaker 2: think there's a bigger discussion because over these last couple

40
00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:12,840
Speaker 2: of weeks and we've had shows on this network and

41
00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:15,480
Speaker 2: articles written. Christine Brennan did a whole piece and how

42
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:18,360
Speaker 2: Kitlyn Clark should have been a part of the US

43
00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:22,560
Speaker 2: women's national team. Now that the US has gold, is

44
00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:25,200
Speaker 2: the US vindicated in keeping her off of that team.

45
00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:29,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, there's been the caation that happens by winning, Obviously,

46
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:33,800
Speaker 3: the ultimate goal in the Olympics is to win gold.

47
00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:37,320
Speaker 2: They won gold, so I think they're okay with that.

48
00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:42,120
Speaker 3: Obviously, there are people and detractors who from the from

49
00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:45,320
Speaker 3: the beginning, thought that Kaitlyn Clark should be on that team.

50
00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:49,240
Speaker 3: And that's all fine and dandy. We all understand that

51
00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:54,840
Speaker 3: that conversation, but the conversation should be the USA women

52
00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:57,760
Speaker 3: has now won eight Olympic gold medals in a row.

53
00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:02,800
Speaker 3: Their dominance has been cemented, and yes, a big what if,

54
00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:06,680
Speaker 3: a big, big, big what if if France wins that

55
00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:10,040
Speaker 3: game and USA loses, and then this conversation would be

56
00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:15,000
Speaker 3: on a astronomical would be on an astronomically different plane.

57
00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:19,040
Speaker 2: Does it does it make your skin itch? Do you

58
00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:24,120
Speaker 2: curl off? Does your spine twitch? When I even thought

59
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:26,799
Speaker 2: of bringing up Caitlin Clark as part of this conversation,

60
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:31,360
Speaker 2: after this moment where the United States women survive, you

61
00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:34,280
Speaker 2: mentioned when they're eighth straight gold medal, Diana Tarrossi wins

62
00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:38,920
Speaker 2: her sixth gold medal. Does any of that conversation irk

63
00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:42,320
Speaker 2: you at all? Does the Caitlin Clark conversation at this

64
00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:46,520
Speaker 2: point irk you at this point right now, as this

65
00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:49,760
Speaker 2: just unfolded, No, twelve or five Eastern nine to five Pacific?

66
00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:52,560
Speaker 3: No, No, it would have been a fair conversation, a

67
00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:56,720
Speaker 3: fair I guess, revisit to what a lot of people

68
00:03:57,040 --> 00:03:59,800
Speaker 3: thought should have been the case anyway, So doesn't irk

69
00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:02,360
Speaker 3: me right now. But if this was yesterday, I would

70
00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:03,920
Speaker 3: have been completely irt then.

71
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:06,040
Speaker 2: But right now, no, Yeah, I think that this is

72
00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:10,480
Speaker 2: a conversation that people would have if the US did

73
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:13,320
Speaker 2: not have, it would have been the lead topic on

74
00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:18,440
Speaker 2: social media, on debate shows, on TV shows, and then

75
00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:21,960
Speaker 2: in our medium here of sports talk radio. I'm going

76
00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:24,760
Speaker 2: to say a couple of things. And Christine Brennan's piece

77
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:29,239
Speaker 2: that she wrote for USA Today was one of after

78
00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:31,839
Speaker 2: the US won the silver medal or excuse me, one

79
00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:35,080
Speaker 2: of their semi final game against or in the Olympic Games.

80
00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:41,000
Speaker 2: After the game, there were eighteen reporters waiting for the

81
00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:44,000
Speaker 2: US women's team, and she felt that that was too

82
00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:47,839
Speaker 2: little eighteen media members. She also pointed to the fact

83
00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:51,520
Speaker 2: that she had spoken with the journalists from Brazil who

84
00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:54,400
Speaker 2: was surprised that Caitlin Clark wasn't on the Olympic team,

85
00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:58,839
Speaker 2: and she had spoken with an Australian journalist who felt

86
00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:02,440
Speaker 2: the same way. They were all interested in talking with

87
00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:07,960
Speaker 2: Caitlyn Clark, and that is why USA Basketball dropped the ball.

88
00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:12,000
Speaker 2: So do you think that the USA Basketball because don't.

89
00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:14,440
Speaker 2: I don't think that. I don't think we need to

90
00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:18,479
Speaker 2: serve Australia and serve Brazil. And I know what her

91
00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:21,640
Speaker 2: point is is that Caitlyn Clark is a global name,

92
00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:24,560
Speaker 2: or you have an opportunity to make women's basketball that

93
00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:28,520
Speaker 2: global sport by her being there. Do you think that

94
00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:31,039
Speaker 2: was the reason that she should have been on the

95
00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:33,200
Speaker 2: US Olympic team. Because I don't feel that's the reason

96
00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:35,080
Speaker 2: she should have been on the US Olympic team.

97
00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:37,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I think that would have been the

98
00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:40,200
Speaker 3: only reason see would have been on the global Okay,

99
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:42,520
Speaker 3: for sure, it wouldn't have been because of the play.

100
00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:46,680
Speaker 3: I think obviously it shows that they had enough to win.

101
00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:47,520
Speaker 2: They got it done.

102
00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:49,680
Speaker 3: So as far as her being on that team to

103
00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:52,680
Speaker 3: make that team a better team or the outcome would

104
00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:55,960
Speaker 3: have been different in a more grandioso a way for

105
00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:57,640
Speaker 3: the USA women's basketball team.

106
00:05:57,880 --> 00:05:59,240
Speaker 2: I don't think that would have been the case for

107
00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:02,159
Speaker 2: me personally. I look at it is and I feel

108
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:06,080
Speaker 2: Caitlyn Clark on that US Olympic team would have been

109
00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:08,120
Speaker 2: good for a couple of reasons, and when she was

110
00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:09,839
Speaker 2: left off, I was not hurt by it. I was

111
00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:11,960
Speaker 2: not mad about it. I was not furious about it.

112
00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:15,719
Speaker 2: I understand this global reach and maybe if that was

113
00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:20,120
Speaker 2: the opportunity, maybe the media members double if Caitlin Clark

114
00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:21,800
Speaker 2: is there. So I don't know, it's an answer that

115
00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:25,279
Speaker 2: we don't know. I felt that if USA Basketball truly

116
00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:29,839
Speaker 2: wanted to continue this dominance, and we saw today how

117
00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:32,520
Speaker 2: France is caught up. I heard on the broadcast that

118
00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:37,000
Speaker 2: the previous gold medal games, the average margin of victory

119
00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:39,160
Speaker 2: was twenty three points. Yeah for the US. So it's

120
00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:41,640
Speaker 2: pure dominance. But today we saw a team play even

121
00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:44,960
Speaker 2: now to help France's their home country, had home court

122
00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:48,240
Speaker 2: advantage with the fans there, but still they've never been

123
00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:52,320
Speaker 2: this close in a game in the Olympics until today,

124
00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:56,760
Speaker 2: during this stretch of success that they've had. It's just

125
00:06:56,839 --> 00:07:00,279
Speaker 2: the point Carrie that I feel Caitlin Clark and even

126
00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:03,200
Speaker 2: Angel Reese or another young player could have been put

127
00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:06,480
Speaker 2: on that team to help them learn the US Olympic

128
00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:09,760
Speaker 2: Basketball way and then carry that torch. And we've talked

129
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:12,480
Speaker 2: about it, you've heard me say it before. If there's

130
00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:14,920
Speaker 2: a way of figuring out a way into passing the

131
00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:17,800
Speaker 2: torch to a younger generation, sure, maybe they're not going

132
00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:20,440
Speaker 2: to play. Tell you what, I think, Anthony Edwards has

133
00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:24,720
Speaker 2: now a much better appreciation for USA basketball, and he

134
00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:27,920
Speaker 2: was a guy who got to watch Steph Curry and

135
00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:31,280
Speaker 2: Devin Booker and Lebron James and Kevin Durant and Anthony

136
00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:34,480
Speaker 2: Davis or Joel Embiid play those meaningful minutes in the

137
00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:37,320
Speaker 2: final two games that they had. I feel that that

138
00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:41,560
Speaker 2: experience is probably better for him than him leading them

139
00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:44,600
Speaker 2: in scoring, you know during group player having the sort

140
00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:48,200
Speaker 2: of games that he had, Like, that's your experience that

141
00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:51,320
Speaker 2: you will now take carry on and now you have

142
00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:53,360
Speaker 2: the torch for the next generation. I felt you could

143
00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:55,000
Speaker 2: have done that with Caitlin Clark. I didn't think that

144
00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:57,640
Speaker 2: she should have been there just because she's Caitlyn Clark

145
00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:01,080
Speaker 2: and needed to popularize basketball it's been by point. But

146
00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:03,600
Speaker 2: I will also say this the two things with Caitlin Clark.

147
00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:08,760
Speaker 2: Number one, I actually needed a break. I needed a

148
00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:12,200
Speaker 2: break from Caitlin Clark conversation. And again it's nothing about

149
00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:14,480
Speaker 2: her me too. Yes, And I know it sounds like

150
00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:16,240
Speaker 2: I'm talking out of both sides in my mouth is

151
00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:19,160
Speaker 2: we're talking about it here, but I don't feel like

152
00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:22,440
Speaker 2: I've been talking about it for the last two weeks.

153
00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:26,520
Speaker 2: It was just up until this point where now the

154
00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:28,280
Speaker 2: US is on the ropes, and I feel that the

155
00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:31,240
Speaker 2: Caitlin Clark supporters were just waiting for Team USA to

156
00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:34,400
Speaker 2: fall for their opportunity to pounce in. I think it's

157
00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:37,080
Speaker 2: been nice. I think Caitlin Clark's probably enjoyed it, having

158
00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:40,120
Speaker 2: a nice two to three weeks, you know, off of

159
00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:43,480
Speaker 2: not having her day job, and now you get back

160
00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:46,120
Speaker 2: to it. I needed a break from the conversation because

161
00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:49,320
Speaker 2: after a while it was just becoming too much, and

162
00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:51,880
Speaker 2: so I needed that break. And the other side of

163
00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:54,920
Speaker 2: the coin is is if the US would have lost

164
00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:58,920
Speaker 2: today and fell to France, you know who, I would

165
00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:02,800
Speaker 2: have been felt sorry for Caitlyn Clark. How would those

166
00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:06,760
Speaker 2: twelve players on Team USA feel that when they come home,

167
00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:08,880
Speaker 2: all the people are talking about, as well, you didn't

168
00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:12,720
Speaker 2: win because of Kaitlyn Clark, talk about resentment, talk about

169
00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:15,840
Speaker 2: the feeling like there's no one more relieved. I think

170
00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:19,840
Speaker 2: today that the US won gold than Caitlyn Clark because

171
00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:22,800
Speaker 2: of all of the conversation that would have happened, none

172
00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:26,040
Speaker 2: of which was her fault. But if the US loses today,

173
00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:29,400
Speaker 2: there is I think an enormous resentment and maybe the

174
00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:32,200
Speaker 2: growth that we've had over this past season in the WNBA,

175
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:35,000
Speaker 2: we would go two or three steps back because I

176
00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:38,200
Speaker 2: guarantee you that you know Diana Tarassi was going for

177
00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:40,839
Speaker 2: a six gold medal, Asiel Wilson, who's been dominant in

178
00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:43,840
Speaker 2: these games. Brianna Stewart's been dominant in these games. The

179
00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:45,600
Speaker 2: last thing that they want to hear is for all

180
00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:47,920
Speaker 2: the work that they put in, well, you would have

181
00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:50,160
Speaker 2: needed Kaitlyn Clark. I think it would have taken everything

182
00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:52,760
Speaker 2: and would have putting it three steps back, and Caitlyn

183
00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:55,439
Speaker 2: Clark would have been actually the ultimate victim. If Team

184
00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:56,920
Speaker 2: USA would have lost today, great.

185
00:09:56,880 --> 00:10:01,320
Speaker 3: Great point, Dan, she definitely would happen, but also the

186
00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:05,560
Speaker 3: vitriol from the fans of hers and supporters of hers.

187
00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:07,760
Speaker 2: Would have been even more loud. Yes, And so the.

188
00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:12,439
Speaker 3: Ability to have any type of homeo staces between both sides,

189
00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:15,280
Speaker 3: which we talked about before, is obviously in life like

190
00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:17,480
Speaker 3: there are people that stand on sides of the fences,

191
00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:20,480
Speaker 3: whatever that side is, and you're not able to have

192
00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:22,720
Speaker 3: conversation with the other or be able to hear the

193
00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:25,840
Speaker 3: other because of how loud your stands is. And so

194
00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:28,720
Speaker 3: this definitely would have put that place or stoked that

195
00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:31,360
Speaker 3: fire again. And so I agree with you one hundred percent.

196
00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:34,600
Speaker 3: I think this time was very much needed for Caitlin

197
00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:38,200
Speaker 3: and the fact that the gold medal game was won

198
00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:42,320
Speaker 3: by the USA absolutely supports that growth. And I think

199
00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:45,319
Speaker 3: the ability, the ability ability for now all of them

200
00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:47,960
Speaker 3: to come together and just play basketball this second part

201
00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:48,440
Speaker 3: of the season.

202
00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:50,439
Speaker 2: And you know, that's a great point. I think it's

203
00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:53,679
Speaker 2: difficult as well to carry over momentum from one Olympics

204
00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:56,040
Speaker 2: to another. I mean, heck, we just had a three

205
00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:58,400
Speaker 2: year break, and it was impossible to have that four

206
00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:01,400
Speaker 2: year break. It's just not a thing. There's not like

207
00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:03,880
Speaker 2: a way that you can carry momentum over from something.

208
00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:06,120
Speaker 2: You just have to be good every single year. And

209
00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:08,160
Speaker 2: I think that's what the US women's do. The women's

210
00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:11,840
Speaker 2: basketball team does. They're just better than everybody. Maybe their

211
00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:14,880
Speaker 2: game has to be a little bit different. You know,

212
00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:17,480
Speaker 2: France wasn't a great three point shooting team, and I

213
00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:19,200
Speaker 2: think they made one in the fourth quarter. It was

214
00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:22,920
Speaker 2: brick City for a while, but the US was not

215
00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:26,079
Speaker 2: based that's not what they do. Now when you see

216
00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:28,280
Speaker 2: how the game has changed, and you see how it's

217
00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:29,839
Speaker 2: taken over the men's game, and you saw what Steph

218
00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:32,480
Speaker 2: Curry did on Saturday, Now you look at that aspect

219
00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:34,640
Speaker 2: and yeah, maybe that's needed for Team USA. Maybe they

220
00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:37,680
Speaker 2: didn't really have that aspect of the true three point

221
00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:40,320
Speaker 2: shooting or never felt the need to rely on it

222
00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:44,160
Speaker 2: because of how Asia Wilson and Brianna Stewart where. Maybe

223
00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:47,079
Speaker 2: now that changes things. But I think the close game

224
00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:53,559
Speaker 2: Carrie today, the almost losing, also helps the US women

225
00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:56,360
Speaker 2: where now we're not like, all right, here's the cakewalk

226
00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:58,600
Speaker 2: because there's not gonna be great momentum. But when we

227
00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:01,040
Speaker 2: play again in twenty twenty eight, it's not gonna be

228
00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:03,920
Speaker 2: as much of a foregone conclusion, because we felt it

229
00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:06,600
Speaker 2: was a foregone conclusion at the beginning, because there wasn't

230
00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:08,840
Speaker 2: even an argument of like, well, you're gonna win gold anyway.

231
00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:10,520
Speaker 2: You might also put Kaitlyn Clark on the team. What

232
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:13,319
Speaker 2: if she met like though, So now at least playing

233
00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:16,000
Speaker 2: them playing a close game and showing that maybe the

234
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:17,960
Speaker 2: world is caught up will make the games a little

235
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:21,560
Speaker 2: bit more interesting in twenty twenty eight, and maybe we

236
00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:25,120
Speaker 2: won't be having just eighteen reporters in a semi final game.

237
00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:27,320
Speaker 2: Maybe there will be more because now we feel some

238
00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:29,000
Speaker 2: of the world is caught up, which, by the way,

239
00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:31,200
Speaker 2: not the fault of the United States.

240
00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:33,400
Speaker 3: Right, No, it's beautiful as like you said, to be

241
00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:38,439
Speaker 3: able to win and go through adversity obviously is the

242
00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:42,079
Speaker 3: best thing for any team, and for a team that's

243
00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:44,440
Speaker 3: been so dominant the way that team USA, that the

244
00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:46,719
Speaker 3: women's team has been, to have a little bit of

245
00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:49,400
Speaker 3: a scare helps you when you win, because now they

246
00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:52,480
Speaker 3: can look at that, like you said, add some pieces

247
00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:54,800
Speaker 3: that they need. They need some three point shooting, they

248
00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:58,199
Speaker 3: need some youth, all the things that you know, Caitlyn

249
00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:00,760
Speaker 3: Clark or Ameslice could have it to that team. So

250
00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:02,920
Speaker 3: you can kind of see that see the formula, but

251
00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:05,040
Speaker 3: also know that like you said, it's not a foregone

252
00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:09,760
Speaker 3: conclusion anymore. We have to literally get the best players

253
00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:12,240
Speaker 3: that we can on this team. And maybe that takes

254
00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:15,160
Speaker 3: away from a Swan song situations from Diamonds Rossi or

255
00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:18,080
Speaker 3: people in the future. Right, So you'll probably change that

256
00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:19,400
Speaker 3: and attack that a little bit differently.

257
00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:22,240
Speaker 2: He's carry Roads, they'll pro I'm Dan Byer. It is

258

287
00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:55,120
Speaker 2: as one, two, three, four comes up an hour from now,

288
00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:59,240
Speaker 2: The over under today, actually maybe like nine and a half. WHOA,

289
00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:02,119
Speaker 2: I think there are two questions that are just absolute

290
00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:06,000
Speaker 2: cakewalks for you, absolute cakewalks, and it's just a matter

291
00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:09,040
Speaker 2: of can you get through the other two that comes

292
00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:10,920
Speaker 2: up in an hour? Hit him up by Kerry twenty

293
00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:13,200
Speaker 2: five Roads. You can find me Dan Buyer on Fox.

294
00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:18,240
Speaker 2: Joyce tweets him. Caitlin Clark should have been on the team.

295
00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:20,920
Speaker 2: Nobody cares about the sport without her. Caitlyn was left

296
00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:26,000
Speaker 2: off because she's white, oh Man, and then Diana Tarassi.

297
00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:31,880
Speaker 2: She just tweeted Diana Tarassi's Olympic stats where they were

298
00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:36,520
Speaker 2: slimed and barely averaged a point per game according to

299
00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:42,800
Speaker 2: this graphic, and Diana Tarassi's I guess contribution was not

300
00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:44,960
Speaker 2: good enough. I'm not gonna pick a fight with Joyce,

301
00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:50,040
Speaker 2: but this is what I'm saying. Imagine if they lost. Yeah,

302
00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:53,240
Speaker 2: like Diana Tarassi can now just laugh and show her

303
00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:57,560
Speaker 2: six gold medals and say scoreboard and laugh it off

304
00:15:57,560 --> 00:16:00,920
Speaker 2: and move on. But if the US would have lost today,

305
00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:04,760
Speaker 2: this is the conversation that happens, and the only real

306
00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:08,600
Speaker 2: and the real victims would be the twelve players a

307
00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:11,120
Speaker 2: Team USA who have to hear about this, and then

308
00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:14,680
Speaker 2: Caitlyn Clark, who did nothing to deserve this. But it

309
00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:18,960
Speaker 2: would only harbor resentment towards Clark by these other stars

310
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:21,840
Speaker 2: of the WNBA, and any of the progress that we

311
00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:25,280
Speaker 2: have made in sort of I don't know, mending fences

312
00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:27,880
Speaker 2: and coming together as one over these last couple of

313
00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:31,600
Speaker 2: months of the WNBA season would have been completely washed away,

314
00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:33,640
Speaker 2: and I would have felt we'd almost be back at

315
00:16:33,640 --> 00:16:36,040
Speaker 2: square one. And I don't think Kitlyn Clark wants to

316
00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:38,120
Speaker 2: be back at square one. I think Katelyn Clark wants

317
00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:40,720
Speaker 2: to move on, wants to move on with her career,

318
00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:43,680
Speaker 2: because this conversation cannot be lasting for years and years

319
00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:44,120
Speaker 2: and years.

320
00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:48,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, and it would have pitted Diana Tarassi back against

321
00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:51,960
Speaker 3: Kaitlyn Clark and the conversation that was already you know,

322
00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:56,840
Speaker 3: even before Caitlyn got to the WNBA, right, the comments

323
00:16:56,880 --> 00:16:59,880
Speaker 3: that Diana made, and so yes, it just would have

324
00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:02,720
Speaker 3: Doke to fire more. But I want people to just

325
00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:06,440
Speaker 3: let's let's just bask in somebody else's glory for a

326
00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:09,960
Speaker 3: little bit and not what somebody is perceived to be lacking.

327
00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:14,560
Speaker 3: Let's let's let's enjoy what just happened. Not even forty

328
00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:19,720
Speaker 3: minutes ago, Stream USA, the women's basketball team won a

329
00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:20,520
Speaker 3: gold medal.

330
00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:23,880
Speaker 2: They won one for the country again. They've won eight

331
00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:24,400
Speaker 2: in a row.

332
00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:26,880
Speaker 3: Let's talk about their excellence and not about what could

333
00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:27,960
Speaker 3: have been or what should have been.

334
00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:31,200
Speaker 2: Kelsey Plumb with some big free throws clear of Copper Yeah,

335
00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:34,880
Speaker 2: twelve points both for Plumbing and Copper Asia Wilson twenty

336
00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:37,600
Speaker 2: one points. But they got their guard play did help

337
00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:39,800
Speaker 2: them in this game. The guard play ended up saving

338
00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:41,800
Speaker 2: the day, and that guard play ended up coming off

339
00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:44,480
Speaker 2: the bench. It may not have been Diana Tarassi. Yeah,

340
00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:47,400
Speaker 2: but again just think Jason Tatum found out somebody's gonna

341
00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:52,040
Speaker 2: be number twelve. Hey, Tyresh Halliburton and Anthony Edwards. We're

342
00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:55,440
Speaker 2: having a great time on the bench watching that show yesterday.

343
00:17:56,040 --> 00:17:59,159
Speaker 2: Their time will come, Diana Tarossi, Sure time has passed,

344
00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:04,400
Speaker 2: but there the Jason Tatum conversation again was just one

345
00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:06,399
Speaker 2: that never resonated with me early in the week when

346
00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:08,000
Speaker 2: we were talking early in the Olympics when we were

347
00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:10,280
Speaker 2: talking about the men's team, because it was just such

348
00:18:10,320 --> 00:18:14,200
Speaker 2: an NBA conversation and that's not what these Olympics are about.

349
00:18:14,280 --> 00:18:19,320
Speaker 2: And that's what's what was just so great about yesterday was, Yeah,

350
00:18:19,359 --> 00:18:22,040
Speaker 2: you had all these NBA players that yet that you know,

351
00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:24,320
Speaker 2: not not only by the way on the US, but

352
00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:27,240
Speaker 2: even now with Wemby and France and you know, Nicholas

353
00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:31,679
Speaker 2: Batoum and others and Rudy Gobert. But it's just to

354
00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:36,919
Speaker 2: see them in a new situation, in a new a

355
00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:41,239
Speaker 2: new format, and to see just to see how it

356
00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:43,600
Speaker 2: all plays together. I don't want I didn't want the

357
00:18:43,680 --> 00:18:45,760
Speaker 2: drama of the NBA. We've talked about it for the

358
00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:48,320
Speaker 2: last two or three shows that that we've done over

359
00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:49,760
Speaker 2: weeks and weeks. I just want to sit back and

360
00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:51,720
Speaker 2: enjoy the games. That's all I wanted to do. That's

361
00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:52,399
Speaker 2: what I did yesterday.

362
00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:54,080
Speaker 3: And it was a couple of takeaways from from me

363
00:18:54,280 --> 00:18:57,239
Speaker 3: with that. With with the Olympics men's basketball team is

364
00:18:57,760 --> 00:19:02,400
Speaker 3: number one, the big winner out of all of this

365
00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:04,399
Speaker 3: wasn't even there. And I would say that would be

366
00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:08,440
Speaker 3: Jalen Brown because imagine if he was there on top

367
00:19:08,480 --> 00:19:11,840
Speaker 3: of that and he played more or he didn't play,

368
00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:13,920
Speaker 3: and you have two of those guys on the bench

369
00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:17,200
Speaker 3: that are not playing, and then you know, for them

370
00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:20,199
Speaker 3: and for Jalen right to have the conversation be he

371
00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:21,639
Speaker 3: should have been there and he would have done this

372
00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:24,280
Speaker 3: instead of saying if he got there and was in

373
00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:27,120
Speaker 3: that same position, it would have looked in a different way, right,

374
00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:28,719
Speaker 3: that could it could be taken in a different light.

375
00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:31,920
Speaker 2: So so you think Jalen brother the team r winning

376
00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:34,879
Speaker 2: the gold, the men it was good for Jalen Brown.

377
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:37,360
Speaker 2: So he wouldn't look bad. Is that what you were saying?

378
00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:40,800
Speaker 2: Just him not being there? So the conversation about if

379
00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:42,840
Speaker 2: he deserved to be there? So is this the Caitlyn

380
00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:44,480
Speaker 2: Clark version of that story?

381
00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:47,720
Speaker 3: Now I'm getting there right, So like now that conversation's

382
00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:51,200
Speaker 3: kind of it's it's one of those greatest what ifs.

383
00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:53,480
Speaker 3: And then it's like, on the other hand, it's like

384
00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:55,919
Speaker 3: it doesn't matter. So like it's the same situation with

385
00:19:55,960 --> 00:19:58,160
Speaker 3: the Kaitlyn Clark. Dang, you're saying from not you know,

386
00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:02,080
Speaker 3: from a from a from a nine a minute, very

387
00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:05,440
Speaker 3: specific situation of what could have been or what should

388
00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:07,560
Speaker 3: have been. Right, So those two things you don't have

389
00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:09,479
Speaker 3: to worry about it. We can kind of like table it.

390
00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:11,639
Speaker 3: But we can also look back and say, if you're

391
00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:14,680
Speaker 3: a Jalen Brown supporter, you know, if he was there,

392
00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:17,040
Speaker 3: he could have played, he would have done this. We

393
00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:19,040
Speaker 3: don't know if he would have been in a similar

394
00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:21,919
Speaker 3: Jason Tatum situation, but we'll never know now sure. And

395
00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:24,919
Speaker 3: then the other part of that for me is we

396
00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:28,280
Speaker 3: talked about it off air, just the camaraderie.

397
00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:29,360
Speaker 2: That we saw with those guys.

398
00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:32,560
Speaker 3: You just said it, Anthony Edwards Tyrese Halliburton's on the

399
00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:35,440
Speaker 3: bench excited for these guys. These guys are superstars on

400
00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:37,760
Speaker 3: their teams. Then you get to see all these guys

401
00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:40,480
Speaker 3: come together for a greater cause, whatever the cause may be.

402
00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:43,280
Speaker 3: We don't know individually what it is, but from the

403
00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:45,320
Speaker 3: outside looking in, they're all there to win a gold

404
00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:47,440
Speaker 3: medal and win it for their country. Yeah, and when

405
00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:49,680
Speaker 3: you see that, it just it pans out really well.

406
00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:51,720
Speaker 2: I just think ten twelve years from now, when you're

407
00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:54,399
Speaker 2: looking back at that gold medal, imagine the stories that

408
00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:56,600
Speaker 2: you're going to have that you played on the same

409
00:20:56,640 --> 00:20:59,399
Speaker 2: team with Lebron James, Steph Curry, and Kevin Durant at

410
00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:02,160
Speaker 2: the same time. Because that's it's not gonna happen again.

411
00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:04,840
Speaker 2: It's not gonna happen in twenty twenty eight. I mean,

412
00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:07,400
Speaker 2: there's a decent chance that all three of those guys

413
00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:11,359
Speaker 2: on that team. Yes, So when you're Anthony Edwards and

414
00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:14,200
Speaker 2: you have the stories like that's that's what you take

415
00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:16,600
Speaker 2: from it. It kid in the candy store sort of

416
00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:19,919
Speaker 2: sort of feeling with it. My biggest takeaway is just

417
00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:23,200
Speaker 2: with Steph and what it meant in these last two games.

418
00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:26,399
Speaker 2: You talk about like cream rising to the top, and

419
00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:30,639
Speaker 2: to see to see what he did in those in

420
00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:34,119
Speaker 2: that fourth quartery yesterday with the four threes, and to

421
00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:36,280
Speaker 2: see what he did in the semi final game to

422
00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:40,080
Speaker 2: keep them afloat against Serbia with his thirty six points.

423
00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:44,040
Speaker 2: This is I'm not a Warriors fan. I'm not a

424
00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:47,000
Speaker 2: Steph Curry fan. But I don't dislike Steph Curry. I

425
00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:51,119
Speaker 2: think it's very difficult to just, you know, was not

426
00:21:50,920 --> 00:21:53,520
Speaker 2: a not a fan. But that's okay. It's doesn't mean

427
00:21:53,520 --> 00:21:55,560
Speaker 2: that I that I don't like Steph Curry. What I

428
00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:59,679
Speaker 2: liked about it was I feel that Steph is probably

429
00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:04,680
Speaker 2: the superstar that gets the most flack that doesn't bring

430
00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:08,000
Speaker 2: it upon himself. Yeah, like Lebron, it gets so much

431
00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:11,760
Speaker 2: flack it's absurd. But I mean Lebron crowned himself on

432
00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:16,320
Speaker 2: the metal stand. Yes today, that's bringing some of it again.

433
00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:18,320
Speaker 2: Yes he did. He was about to get his medal

434
00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:20,359
Speaker 2: and he did the fake crown on the metal stand.

435
00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:23,200
Speaker 2: So Lebron brings it. Yes, I don't think Steph does.

436
00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:26,679
Speaker 2: And when you talk about the Warriors dynasty, Steph is

437
00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:30,879
Speaker 2: obviously the biggest part of it, I believe because you

438
00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:33,639
Speaker 2: don't win the first one without Steph Curry becoming Steph Curry.

439
00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:35,760
Speaker 2: So we give him his flowers there, But there are

440
00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:37,959
Speaker 2: still some people who will fight back and say, all right,

441
00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:40,199
Speaker 2: is he really a top ten guy? Is he really this?

442
00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:42,520
Speaker 2: Does he really belong in the greats. I think we've

443
00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:44,800
Speaker 2: moved past the point he is obviously the greatest shooter

444
00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:46,600
Speaker 2: that we have ever seen in the NBA and the

445
00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:49,440
Speaker 2: greatest shooter that we've ever seen period. I think we've

446
00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:51,960
Speaker 2: moved away from that part. But it is still like

447
00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:58,159
Speaker 2: Steph Curry still had detractors would point out certain things.

448
00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:02,360
Speaker 2: You won the two with Kevin, you know, they say

449
00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:05,840
Speaker 2: what you want about the twenty twenty two title. Two

450
00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:08,080
Speaker 2: titles is nice. Four is a lot better, But I

451
00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:10,880
Speaker 2: don't know how many people give him credit for all four.

452
00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:16,480
Speaker 2: And when Kevin Durant came to Golden State, he, I mean,

453
00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:20,919
Speaker 2: think about stepping aside as the number one. And I

454
00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:23,160
Speaker 2: know that it was difficult for Kevin Durant to fit

455
00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:26,760
Speaker 2: in in that point, and we know about the Draymond stuff,

456
00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:29,439
Speaker 2: but it wasn't easy for Steph. And Steph Shotts were

457
00:23:29,480 --> 00:23:33,320
Speaker 2: also affected with that. Yeah, and maybe it was because

458
00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:35,320
Speaker 2: they were both I don't want to say two alphas,

459
00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:37,440
Speaker 2: but they were both one a options of why then

460
00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:40,480
Speaker 2: Kevin Durant decided to go elsewhere. But there's a lot

461
00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:42,359
Speaker 2: of sacrifice for Steph Curry, and I just felt that

462
00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:45,560
Speaker 2: he got a lot of flak for being truly one

463
00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:47,840
Speaker 2: of the greats, and they have his moment to shine,

464
00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:50,159
Speaker 2: to be on the same floor as Kevin Durant and

465
00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:53,919
Speaker 2: Lebron James as their teammates and rise to the top. Magnificent.

466
00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:56,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, twenty twenty two was I think the year that

467
00:23:56,720 --> 00:24:00,440
Speaker 3: I was you know, I looked at Steph Curry like, yeah,

468
00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:03,520
Speaker 3: he's he's he's one of the goats. You know, like

469
00:24:03,600 --> 00:24:06,200
Speaker 3: that year when they beat Boston in the finals and

470
00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:08,639
Speaker 3: and got that one. It was like they shouldn't have

471
00:24:08,640 --> 00:24:11,520
Speaker 3: won this one. And so you could see the excellence.

472
00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:15,000
Speaker 3: You could see Steph Curry, you know, becoming not even

473
00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:18,159
Speaker 3: becoming he was already there, but like cementing himself as

474
00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:20,719
Speaker 3: one of the great one of the greats of all times.

475
00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:24,960
Speaker 3: But uh, this performance these last two games has just

476
00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:29,040
Speaker 3: been outstanding, and I mean breathtaking, And you don't get

477
00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:32,679
Speaker 3: that from somebody a lot of times as just a

478
00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:36,280
Speaker 3: shooter or somebody that plays below the rim, Like, you

479
00:24:36,359 --> 00:24:39,320
Speaker 3: don't get that all factor from many players when they're

480
00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:41,160
Speaker 3: on the on the court and doing what they do.

481
00:24:42,320 --> 00:24:43,959
Speaker 2: He's one of one when it comes to that.

482
00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:46,520
Speaker 3: And so some of the shot making that he makes,

483
00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:50,119
Speaker 3: the way he moves on the court so gracefully, the

484
00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:51,399
Speaker 3: way that he does it. I mean, it's one of

485
00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:54,880
Speaker 3: those things whereas a normal person watching and I'm putting

486
00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:58,600
Speaker 3: myself in that normal category watching somebody like him maneuver

487
00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:02,119
Speaker 3: and and and do what he does at such a

488
00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:04,639
Speaker 3: high level on the court. It's not just the talent

489
00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:06,600
Speaker 3: part of it. And I think that's what shines when

490
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:09,320
Speaker 3: you see Steph Curry. You know, he's worked at it

491
00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:12,440
Speaker 3: so much to be to be that. Yes, if there's

492
00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:14,320
Speaker 3: a god given ability that he has to shoot the ball,

493
00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:17,439
Speaker 3: but the reps that it takes, the conditioning that it

494
00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:19,600
Speaker 3: takes to be who he is and play the way

495
00:25:19,600 --> 00:25:23,080
Speaker 3: he plays, like those things from us should be the

496
00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:25,600
Speaker 3: most admirable things you can see as a fan watching

497
00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:27,879
Speaker 3: somebody do what they do at a great level.

498
00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:31,240
Speaker 2: So when you see that, I mean I was jumping

499
00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:32,320
Speaker 2: up and down. I don't care.

500
00:25:32,560 --> 00:25:35,840
Speaker 3: I don't really care about the Olympic basketball team in general.

501
00:25:35,880 --> 00:25:38,480
Speaker 3: But when you see that, you see the camaraderie, you

502
00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:41,439
Speaker 3: see the way that Steph played, It was breathtaking. I

503
00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:43,280
Speaker 3: was jumping up and down, Man, I don't do that,

504
00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:46,680
Speaker 3: and you know why, because it got better and better.

505
00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:48,800
Speaker 2: Like there was a point there was Okay, there were

506
00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:51,200
Speaker 2: like a couple of back and forth threes. I think,

507
00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:53,480
Speaker 2: I think Steph hit what I think, but Tom ended

508
00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:57,639
Speaker 2: up answering with one. But there was there was the

509
00:25:57,760 --> 00:26:02,160
Speaker 2: drive by Booker to the to the shot clocks winding down,

510
00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:04,440
Speaker 2: You're like, are they gonna get a shot off? Kick

511
00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:07,160
Speaker 2: it out to Steph. He pump fakes, takes one shut

512
00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:10,040
Speaker 2: step to the left and nails it. And that that

513
00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:11,840
Speaker 2: would have, by the way, been the icing on top

514
00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:16,159
Speaker 2: for me. But then you have the the arcing thirty

515
00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:19,800
Speaker 2: four foot or that goes in. That was just I mean,

516
00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:24,480
Speaker 2: each three got better with the state higher, and that's

517
00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:27,280
Speaker 2: what made it like it was just such a it was.

518
00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:30,600
Speaker 2: It reminds me of the NFL playoffs that we had

519
00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:34,760
Speaker 2: a few years ago when we had the Bengals beat

520
00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:39,399
Speaker 2: the Titans on Saturday of the playoffs, and it was

521
00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:42,320
Speaker 2: a great game when Cincinnati ends up, you know, getting

522
00:26:42,359 --> 00:26:45,800
Speaker 2: the upset, and then it was I believe it was

523
00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:49,359
Speaker 2: Green Bay and San Francisco playing in their game, and

524
00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:52,560
Speaker 2: San Francisco ends up pulling the upset. And then you

525
00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:55,479
Speaker 2: have the Rams beating the Buccaneers, and the Buccaneers come

526
00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:57,679
Speaker 2: all the way back to tie, but then the Rams

527
00:26:57,720 --> 00:27:00,800
Speaker 2: beat you know, yeah, Brady in the in the Buccaneers,

528
00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:03,320
Speaker 2: and so like, the games kept on getting better, and

529
00:27:03,359 --> 00:27:06,000
Speaker 2: then it's capped off by the Chiefs and Bills and

530
00:27:06,080 --> 00:27:08,919
Speaker 2: the thirteen seconds and then the overtime. Like it just

531
00:27:09,119 --> 00:27:11,320
Speaker 2: every game got better during that playoff. Every one of

532
00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:14,800
Speaker 2: Steph's threes got better over that fourth quarter, and it

533
00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:16,160
Speaker 2: was just it's great to see.

534
00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:18,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, my head with my head was sore. I actually

535
00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:20,800
Speaker 3: jumped up so hard one time. I banged my head

536
00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:22,240
Speaker 3: in the back of the thing. I didn't have I

537
00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:24,040
Speaker 3: didn't have I did not have a concussion, but I

538
00:27:24,119 --> 00:27:25,880
Speaker 3: was on the back of the thing. What's the thing

539
00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:29,360
Speaker 3: while I was at a little sports ball watching the game.

540
00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:31,960
Speaker 3: It was like, okay, behind gotcha, yea yeah, and I

541
00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:33,119
Speaker 3: hit my head. I was like oh, And then I

542
00:27:33,119 --> 00:27:34,960
Speaker 3: look back, I was like, oh, I'm fine, I'm fine.

543
00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:36,640
Speaker 2: So it was good. I'm gonna say one other thing

544
00:27:36,760 --> 00:27:39,960
Speaker 2: to this. Give me ten minute quarters in the NBA.

545
00:27:40,560 --> 00:27:43,320
Speaker 2: You like the ten minute Oh my goodness, Like I like,

546
00:27:43,359 --> 00:27:47,000
Speaker 2: I forget on how it's different in the college basketball.

547
00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:49,359
Speaker 2: All right, we've got you got another supporter in the

548
00:27:49,359 --> 00:27:54,640
Speaker 2: ten minute. Yeah, game moves quickly, there's more urgency. We

549
00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:58,080
Speaker 2: talk about limiting the amount of games in the NBA,

550
00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:01,600
Speaker 2: and like, go, you know, do you play eighty two games?

551
00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:04,680
Speaker 2: How about just taking eight minutes off of each game

552
00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:07,439
Speaker 2: and you're not having as much wear and tear. Like

553
00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:10,440
Speaker 2: that would be amazing. I would be watching so much.

554
00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:14,320
Speaker 2: You could have triple headers on at night for that.

555
00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:17,560
Speaker 2: I am all for college basketball is forty minutes, you know,

556
00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:20,000
Speaker 2: but the women's game they do in quarters as well.

557
00:28:20,040 --> 00:28:22,880
Speaker 2: With this and the men's game. Loved it. Chris Prohfeeder,

558
00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:23,760
Speaker 2: technical producer.

559
00:28:24,040 --> 00:28:27,200
Speaker 5: I agree, like I think sporting events are too long.

560
00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:29,480
Speaker 5: I know my sister's really in a Formula one these days,

561
00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:31,920
Speaker 5: and the reason she is is because, unlike other races,

562
00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:34,880
Speaker 5: you're done in like less than two hours watching the race,

563
00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:37,560
Speaker 5: like people have time now, and I don't think these

564
00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:40,080
Speaker 5: long events at night you can do anything to shorten

565
00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:43,480
Speaker 5: them like you do it like I'm not sitting here

566
00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:45,680
Speaker 5: trying to watch even a football game for four hours.

567
00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:47,200
Speaker 3: You know what, you guys sound like. You guys sound

568
00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:49,680
Speaker 3: like the new age. You're all like social media. You

569
00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:52,840
Speaker 3: want your consumption really quickly. Let these guys play for

570
00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:53,480
Speaker 3: twelve minutes.

571
00:28:53,520 --> 00:28:56,880
Speaker 5: Many about people who aren't into basketball. Only the last

572
00:28:56,960 --> 00:29:01,479
Speaker 5: two minutes matter. You would not the eight minutes that

573
00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:03,400
Speaker 5: you are losing. I think it would be great.

574
00:29:03,560 --> 00:29:06,320
Speaker 2: I think it would be magnificent forty minute games in

575
00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:08,200
Speaker 2: the NBA things in and out.

576
00:29:08,480 --> 00:29:10,000
Speaker 3: Well, if you're doing that, you got to take the

577
00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:12,000
Speaker 3: ticket price down too, so then the fan, the fan

578
00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:12,880
Speaker 3: maybe are with that.

579
00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:15,240
Speaker 2: So that's the other question. I think the commercial breaks

580
00:29:15,240 --> 00:29:17,320
Speaker 2: would be the biggest question if you were to do something.

581
00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:19,880
Speaker 3: Can I play both sides and say that the basketball

582
00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:21,200
Speaker 3: games should be shorter, but we need to get rid

583
00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:22,320
Speaker 3: of the pitch clock in baseball?

584
00:29:23,360 --> 00:29:26,080
Speaker 6: Sure, very anti pitch clock.

585
00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:30,440
Speaker 2: I was gonna make it political, but I'm just gonna

586
00:29:30,440 --> 00:29:32,080
Speaker 2: I'm not even gonna go there. We'll just we'll just

587
00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:34,440
Speaker 2: stay out of that, out of that realm. Yeah, there's

588
00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:37,080
Speaker 2: there's a way, there's a happy medium with Bo Benson.

589
00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:39,840
Speaker 2: That's what you can have. There's there's there's such thing

590
00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:42,080
Speaker 2: as too much and too little. Yeah, but I I

591
00:29:42,120 --> 00:29:47,160
Speaker 2: loved it. The games moved along quickly. Oh, it was magnificent.

592
00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:49,600
Speaker 2: I don't want twelve minute quarters. I don't want to

593
00:29:49,720 --> 00:29:52,280
Speaker 2: least stay away. You guys heard it here first. Dan

594
00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:55,040
Speaker 2: hates twelve minute quarters. So I just it was it

595
00:29:55,080 --> 00:29:57,000
Speaker 2: was a better watch. You just felt good. There was

596
00:29:57,080 --> 00:30:00,840
Speaker 2: more urgency, there was like it was just it was better.

597
00:30:00,960 --> 00:30:03,760
Speaker 2: And for us, we're sick of the regular season. In

598
00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:06,040
Speaker 2: the regular season and pretty much every sport is now

599
00:30:06,080 --> 00:30:08,680
Speaker 2: being watered down because all we care about the playoffs. Yeah,

600
00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:11,520
Speaker 2: why not make the regular season somewhat of a better

601
00:30:11,600 --> 00:30:16,200
Speaker 2: watch or experience? And I feel taking two minutes off

602
00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:18,120
Speaker 2: of each quarter would ACCOMPLI well, we got the end

603
00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:21,320
Speaker 2: season tournament, Dan, so that I help. Let's go to

604
00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:25,120
Speaker 2: Isaac and crown the latest on what's happening on this

605
00:30:25,240 --> 00:30:28,840
Speaker 2: Sunday morning as we did. Is it a wah? Would

606
00:30:28,840 --> 00:30:29,000
Speaker 2: that be?

607
00:30:29,560 --> 00:30:29,680
Speaker 1: Wo?

608
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:31,800
Speaker 2: Is that goodbye? And for France?

609
00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:36,000
Speaker 7: All right, good lilt there and the accenting of it

610
00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:38,440
Speaker 7: and what an oar of woa it was.

611
00:30:39,120 --> 00:30:40,520
Speaker 6: See I'm intimidated.

612
00:30:40,160 --> 00:30:44,440
Speaker 7: Now Byers said it so well, anyway, what a farewell

613
00:30:44,480 --> 00:30:47,320
Speaker 7: it was so the Olympics today, particularly for the US

614
00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:52,160
Speaker 7: women's basketball team, because they won their eighth consecutive Olympic

615
00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:55,240
Speaker 7: gold medal today, rallying from a ten point third quarter

616
00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:59,600
Speaker 7: deficit to beat France sixty seven to sixty six. Asia

617
00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:03,040
Speaker 7: Willson led the Americans with twenty one points and thirteen rebounds.

618
00:31:03,120 --> 00:31:07,240
Speaker 7: BUS women's basketball team has now won sixty one consecutive

619
00:31:07,240 --> 00:31:11,320
Speaker 7: games at the Olympics. Earlier, American Jennifer Valente won the

620
00:31:11,320 --> 00:31:14,640
Speaker 7: gold medal in women's track cycling. In the gold medal

621
00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:18,000
Speaker 7: match in women's volleyball, Italy defeated the United States three

622
00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:21,040
Speaker 7: sets to none. One Major League Baseball game going on

623
00:31:21,120 --> 00:31:24,360
Speaker 7: right now, the Los Angeles Angels with a five to

624
00:31:24,440 --> 00:31:26,720
Speaker 7: nothing lead at Washington going to the bottom of the

625
00:31:26,720 --> 00:31:30,040
Speaker 7: fourth inning. We've got an NFL preseason game kicking off

626
00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:33,160
Speaker 7: at the top of the hour from Indianapolis as the

627
00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:37,160
Speaker 7: Colts host to Denver Broncos. This will mark Indianapolis quarterback

628
00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:41,360
Speaker 7: Anthony Richardson's first appearance since Week five last year, when

629
00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:45,520
Speaker 7: he went down with a season ending shoulder injury. Finally,

630
00:31:45,600 --> 00:31:53,080
Speaker 7: Dan and Carey, kudos to at justin c Underscore ninety

Speaker 7: for you right now.

637

Speaker 6: And this, I'm not making this up.

638
00:32:16,760 --> 00:32:21,240
Speaker 7: What you're about to hear literally translates to this devil

639
00:32:21,360 --> 00:32:23,560
Speaker 7: named Curry is hurting us.

640

Speaker 7: Anytime he can elevate to detonate attention, he is going

642
00:32:31,400 --> 00:32:32,160
Speaker 7: to detonate.

643
00:32:33,040 --> 00:32:33,560

Speaker 2: back after hearing that. Yes, no French fries for me.

649
00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:13,040
Speaker 2: I'm there. You call Steph Curry that yeah, yeah, no man, Yes,

650
00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:15,640

651
00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:19,160
Speaker 2: love the color commentator just jumping in. I don't know

652
00:33:19,160 --> 00:33:21,120

653
00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:21,480
Speaker 2: was there?

654
00:33:21,960 --> 00:33:25,160
Speaker 6: Ye there yet that was Antony Romo apparently on.

655
00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:32,040
Speaker 2: The basically, yes, for sure, here's what Steph Curry is

Speaker 2: going to do. That's my Tony Romo. I've never done

Speaker 2: for forever Carrie about that no forever forever. But we

676
00:34:33,080 --> 00:34:36,080
Speaker 2: are going to be talking quarterbacks. And while it's good

677
00:34:36,080 --> 00:34:38,560
Speaker 2: news for two and bad news for one. In the NFL,

678
00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:41,120
Speaker 2: He's carry Roads. I'm Dan Bayer. That's next here on

679
00:34:41,160 --> 00:34:44,239
Speaker 2: Fox Sports Sunday. How soon is too soon? That's the

680
00:34:44,320 --> 00:34:46,959
Speaker 2: question that we're asking here on Fox Sports Sunday. He's

681
00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:50,120
Speaker 2: the All Pro Carrie Rhoads. I'm Dan Bayer. We're talking

682
00:34:50,200 --> 00:34:52,799
Speaker 2: quarterbacks down the National Football League, and you know, we

683
00:34:52,840 --> 00:34:54,840
Speaker 2: aren't talking about the veterans. That is not what the

684
00:34:54,880 --> 00:34:57,920
Speaker 2: preseason is about, because the veterans aren't playing, but the

685
00:34:57,960 --> 00:35:02,680
Speaker 2: young guys are, including some rookies, and yesterday was highlighted

686
00:35:02,719 --> 00:35:07,880
Speaker 2: by not one, but two performances by rookie quarterbacks, arguably

687
00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:11,560
Speaker 2: the most popular rookies in the NFL picks one to

688
00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:13,920
Speaker 2: two of the NFL draft. Caleb Williams playing for the

689
00:35:13,920 --> 00:35:17,400
Speaker 2: Bears against the Buffalo Bills, and Jayden Daniels making is

690
00:35:17,480 --> 00:35:22,120
Speaker 2: Washington Commander's debut against the New York Jets. And from

691
00:35:22,120 --> 00:35:24,640
Speaker 2: what you saw on social media, from what you would

692
00:35:24,680 --> 00:35:27,319
Speaker 2: see in the highlights, Daniels had a three yar touchdown run,

693
00:35:27,680 --> 00:35:31,520
Speaker 2: also had a big pass play in Caleb Williams limited duty,

694
00:35:32,840 --> 00:35:37,239
Speaker 2: had some impressive throws. There was a dump off and

695
00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:40,960
Speaker 2: eluding some pressure to DeAndre Swift who ended up breaking

696
00:35:40,960 --> 00:35:43,239
Speaker 2: for a big run. But there was there was a

697
00:35:43,239 --> 00:35:46,440
Speaker 2: lot of good when it comes to those two quarterbacks.

698
00:35:47,200 --> 00:35:50,360
Speaker 2: And earlier the show, we talked about almost almost feeling

699
00:35:50,400 --> 00:35:52,439
Speaker 2: bad for Caitlin Clark if Team USA would have lost

700
00:35:52,520 --> 00:35:56,120
Speaker 2: because of everything that would come with it. I feel

701
00:35:56,480 --> 00:35:59,800
Speaker 2: bad for Drake May a little bit. And this is

702
00:35:59,840 --> 00:36:03,439
Speaker 2: the question of how soon is too soon one preseason game.

703
00:36:03,600 --> 00:36:06,479
Speaker 2: We are not gonna judge. We're not gonna judge Drake

704
00:36:06,560 --> 00:36:09,319
Speaker 2: May and make our stamp of approval on whether he's

705
00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:13,120
Speaker 2: good or not based on one preseason game where it

706
00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:19,520
Speaker 2: was raining in Foxborough and he played limited snaps. But Carrie,

707
00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:24,640
Speaker 2: there is a slim chance that all three of those

708
00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:28,640
Speaker 2: quarterbacks that were taking one, two, three in this draft

709
00:36:29,040 --> 00:36:33,080
Speaker 2: have great NFL careers. Just the numbers don't pan out.

710
00:36:33,560 --> 00:36:37,760
Speaker 2: We thought we would have great quarterback classes in certain years.

711
00:36:38,200 --> 00:36:42,360
Speaker 2: Baker goes one, Sam Darnold goes three. You know, Josh

712
00:36:42,440 --> 00:36:45,759
Speaker 2: Allen's top ten pick, Josh Rosen, then Lamar at the

713
00:36:45,800 --> 00:36:48,560
Speaker 2: back end, and you look at those five quarterbacks and

714
00:36:48,600 --> 00:36:50,960
Speaker 2: you say, huh, then you look at the mac Jones

715
00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:55,040
Speaker 2: and the Trey Lance and all the different Yeah, there's yeah, exactly. Yeah,

716
00:36:55,120 --> 00:36:58,200
Speaker 2: we're talking one, two, and three, and we've seen a

717
00:36:58,239 --> 00:37:02,000
Speaker 2: three struggle. We've seen a one struggle. My only point

718
00:37:02,080 --> 00:37:04,160
Speaker 2: is this is I feel bad in the fact of

719
00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:06,680
Speaker 2: Drake May, is that some of this stuff can snowball

720
00:37:07,239 --> 00:37:12,399
Speaker 2: where it's not what you're actually doing, it's what you're

721
00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:15,280
Speaker 2: doing compared to the others. Sure, and I'm not drawing.

722
00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:17,560
Speaker 2: I am not saying that Drake May is not going

723
00:37:17,640 --> 00:37:19,640
Speaker 2: to work out. But all I know is this is

724
00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:22,600
Speaker 2: we feel that Caleb Williams is a better surrounding cast

725
00:37:23,520 --> 00:37:27,160
Speaker 2: for sure, and I would think Washington actually does as well,

726
00:37:27,200 --> 00:37:31,920
Speaker 2: and Washington, if they don't, maybe better equipped to handle

727
00:37:31,960 --> 00:37:34,520
Speaker 2: a quicker turnaround because you have Dan Quinn, at least

728
00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:37,920
Speaker 2: a veteran head coach who had coached in the NFL before. Well,

729
00:37:37,920 --> 00:37:41,839
Speaker 2: everything is new in New England, Jrod Mayo taking over

730
00:37:41,880 --> 00:37:44,640
Speaker 2: for Bill Belichick. That's tough enough in its own right,

731
00:37:44,719 --> 00:37:46,680
Speaker 2: and I don't know if you necessarily have the talent,

732
00:37:47,040 --> 00:37:48,480
Speaker 2: So now you kind of have some of these cards

733
00:37:48,520 --> 00:37:52,840
Speaker 2: stacked up against Drake May. I it's very early, but

734
00:37:52,880 --> 00:37:55,000
Speaker 2: as I see this path, I just think that Drake

735
00:37:55,040 --> 00:37:56,920
Speaker 2: May is going to have to go above and beyond

736
00:37:58,040 --> 00:38:01,320
Speaker 2: anything to be able to maybe get the notoriety that

737
00:38:01,719 --> 00:38:04,600
Speaker 2: Kiler Williams and Jayden Daniels do. And because he's going

738
00:38:04,640 --> 00:38:07,880
Speaker 2: to be in that light, I'm wondering if he's going

739
00:38:07,920 --> 00:38:10,319
Speaker 2: to be overshadowed by those two, which could have an

740
00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:11,200
Speaker 2: effect on his future.

741
00:38:11,200 --> 00:38:15,080
Speaker 3: Well, he's gonna be overshadowed by those two automatically. Those

742
00:38:15,120 --> 00:38:18,720
Speaker 3: two are cemented as the guys he's in the battle.

743
00:38:18,760 --> 00:38:21,600
Speaker 3: Even in his own quarterback room. Sure, nobody's even talking

744
00:38:21,600 --> 00:38:23,160
Speaker 3: about that. He didn't even bring that part up Bill,

745
00:38:23,400 --> 00:38:27,120
Speaker 3: where Milton is really good as well. And so the buzz,

746
00:38:27,320 --> 00:38:30,359
Speaker 3: the buzz and all the things around Milton during camp

747
00:38:30,400 --> 00:38:33,640
Speaker 3: and what he's doing and what he provides, it brings

748
00:38:33,680 --> 00:38:36,840
Speaker 3: me to a similar situation, and it's very similar.

749
00:38:36,920 --> 00:38:38,680
Speaker 2: It's and we talked about the Commanders.

750
00:38:38,840 --> 00:38:41,120
Speaker 3: They were a team that was called the Redskins before that,

751
00:38:41,640 --> 00:38:44,520
Speaker 3: and they drafted two quarterbacks in the same draft that year,

752
00:38:45,040 --> 00:38:46,719
Speaker 3: and the one that ends up being the one that

753
00:38:46,760 --> 00:38:49,160
Speaker 3: has the more longevity and has the better career was

754
00:38:49,600 --> 00:38:53,719
Speaker 3: Kirk Cousins, where you know, they drafted RG three first

755
00:38:53,760 --> 00:38:56,000
Speaker 3: and so that situation is looming as well. And so

756
00:38:56,120 --> 00:38:59,640
Speaker 3: for Drake May, he's in a tough situation. He's had

757
00:38:59,680 --> 00:39:02,839
Speaker 3: a team that's far less superior than those other two

758
00:39:02,880 --> 00:39:05,640
Speaker 3: teams as far as what they have readily available at

759
00:39:05,640 --> 00:39:06,000
Speaker 3: the moment.

760
00:39:06,080 --> 00:39:08,040
Speaker 2: So it's gonna be an uphill battle for him. Yeah,

761
00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:10,440
Speaker 2: I think that there's a lot stacked against him in

762
00:39:10,480 --> 00:39:13,120
Speaker 2: this compared to what the other two quarterbacks. And I'm sorry,

763
00:39:13,160 --> 00:39:15,000
Speaker 2: we're just always gonna end up comparing him. And I'm

764
00:39:15,040 --> 00:39:17,560
Speaker 2: glad you you're exactly right about the Joe Milton thing.

765
00:39:17,760 --> 00:39:20,839
Speaker 2: Stuff like that spreads like wildfire, you know. If Joe

766
00:39:20,840 --> 00:39:23,600
Speaker 2: Milton and even in Thursday's game there was even some

767
00:39:23,880 --> 00:39:28,520
Speaker 2: hype about his performance. If that continues in another game

768
00:39:28,640 --> 00:39:32,480
Speaker 2: or two. Yeah, it's not that it's tough to overcome.

769
00:39:32,520 --> 00:39:35,440
Speaker 2: It's just it's really, really difficult. It's another hurdle that

770
00:39:35,480 --> 00:39:38,080
Speaker 2: you're going to have to climb to be successful. And again,

771
00:39:38,120 --> 00:39:39,960
Speaker 2: to think that all three of these guys are going

772
00:39:40,040 --> 00:39:43,719
Speaker 2: to work out just it's it's silly to think that

773
00:39:43,800 --> 00:39:47,520
Speaker 2: because numbers have not proven that in the past. And

774
00:39:47,840 --> 00:39:50,400
Speaker 2: I feel that's why I said is it too soon,

775
00:39:50,440 --> 00:39:53,000
Speaker 2: But I just feel yesterday I'm looking at the headline,

776
00:39:53,040 --> 00:39:55,680
Speaker 2: Look at ESPN, look at CBS Sports, look at Yahoo.

777
00:39:56,040 --> 00:40:00,400
Speaker 2: Impressive start for Williams. Williams looks strong. You know. Niels

778
00:40:00,440 --> 00:40:04,080
Speaker 2: completes big throw and scores touchdowns and you don't have

779
00:40:04,200 --> 00:40:05,480
Speaker 2: that with Drake may Drake.

780
00:40:05,400 --> 00:40:09,839
Speaker 3: May came in and they got three putting on. He's

781
00:40:09,840 --> 00:40:12,120
Speaker 3: gonna play more in their next seam. Drod Mayo even

782
00:40:12,120 --> 00:40:14,399
Speaker 3: said it today. He said it last Friday as well.

783
00:40:14,440 --> 00:40:17,000
Speaker 3: But yeah, I don't want to be too soon on this,

784
00:40:17,160 --> 00:40:19,440
Speaker 3: but you can kind of maybe start to see it

785
00:40:19,480 --> 00:40:21,160
Speaker 3: a little on how it's gonna form out.

786
00:40:21,280 --> 00:40:23,480
Speaker 2: All right, He's carry roads. I'm Dan Beyer. There was

787
00:40:23,520 --> 00:40:27,680
Speaker 2: something unacceptable in the NFL. It happened yesterday. That's next, Carrie.

788
00:40:27,719 --> 00:40:29,759
Speaker 2: Would you call it the Battle of the Ponies or

789
00:40:29,800 --> 00:40:33,160
Speaker 2: the Peyton Manning Bowl when the Colts and Broncos end

790
00:40:33,239 --> 00:40:36,560
Speaker 2: up going head to head in preseason football, I'd go

791
00:40:36,680 --> 00:40:39,360
Speaker 2: Manning Bowl. I go Manning Bowl. Yeah. I have stated

792
00:40:39,560 --> 00:40:44,920
Speaker 2: that no team has gotten more from a short stint

793
00:40:45,040 --> 00:40:47,759
Speaker 2: than the Denver Broncos have out of Peyton Manning. Think

794
00:40:47,800 --> 00:40:53,120
Speaker 2: about it. Record setting season, YEP two Super Bowl appearances,

795
00:40:54,040 --> 00:40:57,760
Speaker 2: one Super Bowl win. He now lives in the Denver area.

796
00:40:58,680 --> 00:41:02,800
Speaker 2: His Colt's tenure, I've always felt this way. It's really

797
00:41:02,840 --> 00:41:06,520
Speaker 2: been as crazy as the team's overshadowed by what he

798
00:41:06,560 --> 00:41:08,880
Speaker 2: did in those four years in Denver. And I know

799
00:41:08,960 --> 00:41:10,880
Speaker 2: Colts fans don't want to hear that, and it sounds

800
00:41:10,880 --> 00:41:13,879
Speaker 2: like it's blasphemy. It's just the fact that I think

801
00:41:13,880 --> 00:41:17,799
Speaker 2: Denver has gotten so much mileage out of the four

802
00:41:17,880 --> 00:41:21,200
Speaker 2: years that Peyton Manning was there that it almost rivals

803
00:41:21,280 --> 00:41:23,720
Speaker 2: what he did with the Indianapolis Colts. I agree.

804
00:41:23,719 --> 00:41:26,880
Speaker 3: You know, he's at the Nuggets, Gangs basketball, Yeah, and

805
00:41:26,960 --> 00:41:31,680
Speaker 3: he's there with the Suns, and it's You're right, it is.

806
00:41:31,920 --> 00:41:34,160
Speaker 3: It's kind of hard to fathom because I played against

807
00:41:34,160 --> 00:41:37,200
Speaker 3: the guy obviously, so I know him from his Colts days.

808
00:41:37,200 --> 00:41:40,799
Speaker 3: But Denver does loom large in this for sure. I

809
00:41:40,840 --> 00:41:43,560
Speaker 3: think it's uh. I think it's just one of those

810
00:41:43,680 --> 00:41:48,719
Speaker 3: weird scenarios. And when it happened, you couldn't blame the

811
00:41:48,760 --> 00:41:51,600
Speaker 3: Colts and Jim Mersey to be like, Okay, we need

812
00:41:51,640 --> 00:41:53,600
Speaker 3: to move on. Not only do we need to move

813
00:41:53,640 --> 00:41:56,919
Speaker 3: on because of the seriousness of Peyton's neck.

814
00:41:57,200 --> 00:42:00,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, you had Andrew Luck. Yeah, that's a no brainer.

815
00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:03,560
Speaker 2: That's the quarterback of the generation. But now, in hindsight,

816
00:42:04,000 --> 00:42:06,920
Speaker 2: Luck decides to retire early, maybe you don't get as

817
00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:08,920
Speaker 2: much juice out of him as you would have hoped.

818
00:42:10,200 --> 00:42:12,279
Speaker 2: You know. I always wondered if Jim Mersey just kind

819
00:42:12,280 --> 00:42:14,040
Speaker 2: of maybe wishes that he would have just stuck with

820
00:42:14,080 --> 00:42:15,200
Speaker 2: Peyton Manning at that point.

821
00:42:15,880 --> 00:42:17,759
Speaker 3: I mean not, I don't think he does. I mean,

822
00:42:17,800 --> 00:42:19,879
Speaker 3: at the end of the day, you have to you're

823
00:42:20,040 --> 00:42:22,200
Speaker 3: We've talked about it, like you you have to improve

824
00:42:22,280 --> 00:42:25,319
Speaker 3: your team, You're and not just for the next year,

825
00:42:25,440 --> 00:42:28,640
Speaker 3: for years to come, and so that the move.

826
00:42:28,760 --> 00:42:30,520
Speaker 2: Yes, they made the right move at the time, But

827
00:42:30,840 --> 00:42:35,000
Speaker 2: if you could go back in time, what would I

828
00:42:35,040 --> 00:42:37,640
Speaker 2: mean you could have maybe he doesn't have that record

829
00:42:37,680 --> 00:42:41,400
Speaker 2: setting season that he has with Denver, with Indianapolis, and

830
00:42:41,480 --> 00:42:43,000
Speaker 2: it has nothing to prove, you know.

831
00:42:43,040 --> 00:42:44,719
Speaker 3: I mean, like you're going to a new situation, a

832
00:42:44,800 --> 00:42:46,960
Speaker 3: new team, you want to show you around him.

833
00:42:47,360 --> 00:42:51,200
Speaker 2: You know, we're we're great. You had John Elway as well.

834
00:42:51,640 --> 00:42:53,640
Speaker 2: It was kind of your I don't want to say

835
00:42:54,440 --> 00:42:57,160
Speaker 2: ride or die, but he's just invested and he knows

836
00:42:57,200 --> 00:42:59,080
Speaker 2: the life of a quarterback. It probably wouldn't have played

837
00:42:59,120 --> 00:43:01,840
Speaker 2: out the same in Indianapolis. But if you're Jim Mersay,

838
00:43:02,000 --> 00:43:04,279
Speaker 2: you know what do you hope Chris Prefet, did you

839
00:43:04,320 --> 00:43:07,600
Speaker 2: want to get in on this, this pony show in

840
00:43:07,760 --> 00:43:09,040
Speaker 2: the Broncos and Colts?

841
00:43:09,080 --> 00:43:10,920
Speaker 5: Well, I do love classic rock and I just couldn't

842
00:43:10,960 --> 00:43:16,000
Speaker 5: help but think of wild wild horses. Wow, I guarantee

843
00:43:16,080 --> 00:43:19,760
Speaker 5: dragged me away. But Paton Mannon got dragged away from Indianapolis.

844
00:43:19,840 --> 00:43:22,000
Speaker 2: Did you think of Genuine's pony when I said that?

845
00:43:22,120 --> 00:43:22,799
Speaker 2: Was that? Yeah?

846
00:43:22,880 --> 00:43:26,040
Speaker 3: Definitely that's what I Yeah, I didn't go wild horses

847
00:43:26,120 --> 00:43:29,200
Speaker 3: at all, but I like wildhorses too.

848
00:43:29,200 --> 00:43:30,520
Speaker 2: I don't give me ang. I like the song a

849
00:43:30,520 --> 00:43:33,600
Speaker 2: little too different anyway. Colts and Broncos about to uh

850
00:43:34,160 --> 00:43:38,560
Speaker 2: about to play. The Colts debuting their new field at

851
00:43:38,640 --> 00:43:41,799
Speaker 2: Lucas Oil Stadium, and it's going to be a synthetic

852
00:43:41,920 --> 00:43:45,480
Speaker 2: surface that we have always come accustomed to. I think

853
00:43:45,480 --> 00:43:48,800
Speaker 2: this will have the Colts new wordmark, their new font

854
00:43:48,840 --> 00:43:51,279
Speaker 2: that they have. But we're even seeing live shots from

855
00:43:51,320 --> 00:43:54,600
Speaker 2: Indianapolis on the NFL network in our studios right now.

856
00:43:54,880 --> 00:43:58,439
Speaker 2: Looks clean, looks crisp, looks very fresh, but it's still

857
00:43:58,600 --> 00:44:05,600
Speaker 2: artificial turf and different than grass, but there is there

858
00:44:05,719 --> 00:44:11,080
Speaker 2: is where you go with this. Last night, I'm at

859
00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:15,960
Speaker 2: my house watching the NFL Network catching up on preseason football,

860
00:44:16,400 --> 00:44:19,480
Speaker 2: and the Saints and Cardinals are playing, and they're playing

861
00:44:19,520 --> 00:44:23,560
Speaker 2: at State Farm Stadium, home of the Cardinals. I understand

862
00:44:23,600 --> 00:44:26,399
Speaker 2: all of this, so I don't need people to yell

863
00:44:26,440 --> 00:44:29,640
Speaker 2: at me on Twitter. I understand the Cardinals use the

864
00:44:29,719 --> 00:44:34,040
Speaker 2: stadium for training camp, but I am sitting next to

865
00:44:34,160 --> 00:44:37,360
Speaker 2: a former All Pro, someone who spent half of his

866
00:44:37,520 --> 00:44:40,160
Speaker 2: career with the Arizona Cardinals. And if you have the

867
00:44:40,200 --> 00:44:42,759
Speaker 2: ability to if you're doing yard work, maybe you're just

868
00:44:42,760 --> 00:44:45,400
Speaker 2: sitting around listening. I don't ask you to do this

869
00:44:45,480 --> 00:44:48,240
Speaker 2: if you're driving, But if you could check my Twitter

870
00:44:48,280 --> 00:44:51,239
Speaker 2: page at Dan Byer on Fox, you will see the

871
00:44:51,239 --> 00:44:54,280
Speaker 2: playing surface that the Arizona Cardinals and Saints were playing

872
00:44:54,320 --> 00:44:58,719
Speaker 2: on yesterday for Week one of the preseason. So you

873
00:44:58,719 --> 00:45:01,040
Speaker 2: have an entire offseason to say we're gonna get this

874
00:45:01,080 --> 00:45:04,479
Speaker 2: playing surface right. And again I understand they're having training camp.

875
00:45:05,760 --> 00:45:10,040
Speaker 2: This field, to me, Carrie unacceptable. If you're the National

876
00:45:10,080 --> 00:45:14,799
Speaker 2: Football League, like you cannot have a field that is

877
00:45:14,840 --> 00:45:18,600
Speaker 2: supposed to be grass and have the patches and bear

878
00:45:18,719 --> 00:45:22,680
Speaker 2: spots that you had in Week one of the preseason, Like,

879
00:45:22,800 --> 00:45:25,279
Speaker 2: it doesn't make any sense to me on how it

880
00:45:25,320 --> 00:45:27,000
Speaker 2: could be so poorly. I don't again, I don't care.

881
00:45:27,040 --> 00:45:30,200
Speaker 2: Figure out a different way. Put them put a fake field.

882
00:45:30,239 --> 00:45:32,399
Speaker 2: The Raiders have two different fields. They have a turf field,

883
00:45:32,440 --> 00:45:34,759
Speaker 2: they have their grass field. Yeah, the UNV plays on

884
00:45:34,800 --> 00:45:37,239
Speaker 2: the turf. I know, it's a different configuration. Figure out

885
00:45:37,239 --> 00:45:39,920
Speaker 2: a way that you don't have NFL football played on

886
00:45:40,040 --> 00:45:43,600
Speaker 2: that surface, especially early on in the season when you're

887
00:45:43,640 --> 00:45:44,719
Speaker 2: just about to start the year.

888
00:45:44,800 --> 00:45:46,719
Speaker 3: Well, I don't know what's worse. I know you sent

889
00:45:46,840 --> 00:45:50,080
Speaker 3: me the pitcher last night. I don't know what's worse

890
00:45:50,239 --> 00:45:53,080
Speaker 3: the fact that I'm used to it being that bad,

891
00:45:53,200 --> 00:45:54,759
Speaker 3: or playing on it that bad that I didn't even

892
00:45:54,800 --> 00:45:58,120
Speaker 3: recognize what you were talking about in the text, or

893
00:45:59,160 --> 00:46:03,520
Speaker 3: that this kind of just supports a lot of the

894
00:46:03,600 --> 00:46:07,600
Speaker 3: former players and people that have talked about the Cardinals

895
00:46:07,600 --> 00:46:09,560
Speaker 3: management and how they take care of their players and

896
00:46:09,600 --> 00:46:11,800
Speaker 3: take care of their field and being a little stringent

897
00:46:11,840 --> 00:46:15,360
Speaker 3: with money and all those things. It just really supports

898
00:46:15,360 --> 00:46:18,640
Speaker 3: that it's a bad look first preseason game. Take care

899
00:46:18,680 --> 00:46:21,360
Speaker 3: of the field, take take care of your players, and

900
00:46:21,960 --> 00:46:25,840
Speaker 3: you are presenting yourself for the first time to the

901
00:46:25,880 --> 00:46:28,200
Speaker 3: world and to a national audience, and that's what they see.

902
00:46:28,560 --> 00:46:30,680
Speaker 3: Of course people are going to have the same take

903
00:46:30,719 --> 00:46:32,920
Speaker 3: that you have. It's a bad look, I think.

904
00:46:33,440 --> 00:46:36,440
Speaker 2: And we just got to tweet. Buddy DJ Carlisle, a

905
00:46:36,440 --> 00:46:39,319
Speaker 2: longtime Fox Sports radio listener, tweets and it says, at

906
00:46:39,440 --> 00:46:42,240
Speaker 2: least it's natural grass. I take thirty two fields looking

907
00:46:42,280 --> 00:46:45,280
Speaker 2: like that. If they'd all go back to grass, right, Okay,

908
00:46:45,320 --> 00:46:46,520
Speaker 2: you've played on that surface?

909
00:46:46,640 --> 00:46:48,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, how fun is it to play on that surface?

910
00:46:48,560 --> 00:46:54,600
Speaker 3: It is not fun. It's slippery, it's moisture field. They

911
00:46:54,680 --> 00:46:58,840
Speaker 3: try to they bring in the grass every you know,

912
00:46:58,880 --> 00:47:01,480
Speaker 3: for every home game, take it out, they replace it,

913
00:47:01,520 --> 00:47:03,919
Speaker 3: they bring it back in, and so whatever they're doing,

914
00:47:03,960 --> 00:47:06,279
Speaker 3: it's not working well. So they need to come up

915
00:47:06,320 --> 00:47:09,839
Speaker 3: with a better plan. And again it's about presentation. When

916
00:47:10,480 --> 00:47:15,160
Speaker 3: you're thought of as almost a laughing stock from all

917
00:47:15,160 --> 00:47:20,000
Speaker 3: the other teams and the other fan bases for your

918
00:47:20,040 --> 00:47:22,840
Speaker 3: record and the way you've played for the last few years,

919
00:47:22,880 --> 00:47:24,960
Speaker 3: and then on top of that, have that be your presentation,

920
00:47:25,000 --> 00:47:25,759
Speaker 3: it's not a good look.

921
00:47:26,040 --> 00:47:27,919
Speaker 2: It was one of the last thing stories of Super

922
00:47:27,920 --> 00:47:31,239
Speaker 2: Bowl fifty seven, right, and this is the point is

923
00:47:31,400 --> 00:47:35,000
Speaker 2: that field has always had issues. Yes, and I just

924
00:47:35,040 --> 00:47:38,400
Speaker 2: don't listen. The stadium has been around for twenty years

925
00:47:39,160 --> 00:47:44,040
Speaker 2: and it's we love the novelty of it, as you say,

926
00:47:44,040 --> 00:47:47,320
Speaker 2: move it out, but it just doesn't feel like grass

927
00:47:47,400 --> 00:47:52,440
Speaker 2: as the opportunity to really root and to grow this

928
00:47:52,600 --> 00:47:56,480
Speaker 2: lush field. Plus that field carry doesn't have a crown.

929
00:47:57,080 --> 00:47:59,960
Speaker 2: There's no crown on the field. It is a flat

930
00:48:00,160 --> 00:48:03,600
Speaker 2: basketball court, basically one hundred and twenty yards of sod's.

931
00:48:03,680 --> 00:48:06,080
Speaker 2: That's what you've got there. But there was no crown

932
00:48:06,120 --> 00:48:08,040
Speaker 2: that you would if you went to lambeau Field. Yeah,

933
00:48:08,160 --> 00:48:10,800
Speaker 2: say played on that field. I'm sure you go to Pittsburgh.

934
00:48:10,800 --> 00:48:13,560
Speaker 2: It's the it's the same thing. And this is the point.

935
00:48:13,600 --> 00:48:18,200
Speaker 2: And I'm glad DJ tweeted this because here the culture

936
00:48:18,239 --> 00:48:21,319
Speaker 2: playing on this surface. Would you rather play on what

937
00:48:21,360 --> 00:48:23,719
Speaker 2: the culture playing on right now or what the Cardinals

938
00:48:23,760 --> 00:48:27,960
Speaker 2: had to play on yesterday in their opener of preseason.

939
00:48:28,080 --> 00:48:32,840
Speaker 3: I mean, definitely this one. But I don't like the Colts.

940
00:48:32,880 --> 00:48:34,400
Speaker 3: They rather have the Colts when it I mean it.

941
00:48:35,120 --> 00:48:38,359
Speaker 3: I don't like the synthetic. Obviously I played on it.

942
00:48:38,640 --> 00:48:40,600
Speaker 3: I played on it with the Jets. I mean even

943
00:48:40,920 --> 00:48:43,759
Speaker 3: with that cold whether we had to make some adjustments

944
00:48:43,760 --> 00:48:46,480
Speaker 3: and we went to that and you know, it's fine.

945
00:48:46,640 --> 00:48:48,440
Speaker 3: I mean, I got through it played, you know, I

946
00:48:48,440 --> 00:48:50,319
Speaker 3: mean it was it was good and solid and a

947
00:48:50,400 --> 00:48:53,640
Speaker 3: nice surface. But lately they've been having so many injuries

948
00:48:53,640 --> 00:48:56,839
Speaker 3: on that turf in New York and so it's not

949
00:48:56,880 --> 00:48:59,680
Speaker 3: what you want. You would want great looking grass, but yes,

950
00:49:00,120 --> 00:49:02,799
Speaker 3: to play on this than what that picture was.

951
00:49:02,760 --> 00:49:05,399
Speaker 2: In this in this era of new stadiums and new

952
00:49:05,440 --> 00:49:09,839
Speaker 2: technology and how we've figured this out. I don't want

953
00:49:09,840 --> 00:49:12,640
Speaker 2: to sound naive and go on a rant to talk

954
00:49:12,680 --> 00:49:15,360
Speaker 2: about stuff that I don't know what I'm talking about,

955
00:49:15,960 --> 00:49:19,800
Speaker 2: but it is just amazing to me that we've gotten

956
00:49:19,880 --> 00:49:23,400
Speaker 2: this far and this is all that we've come up with.

957
00:49:23,480 --> 00:49:27,120
Speaker 2: It reminds me of even the astro turf back in

958
00:49:27,239 --> 00:49:31,360
Speaker 2: the nineteen eighties, which was horrendous, right, it was the worst, Yes,

959
00:49:31,400 --> 00:49:35,120
Speaker 2: but guess what probably what ten fifteen, twenty years prior

960
00:49:35,120 --> 00:49:39,000
Speaker 2: to that, it was amazing. Look at this stuff. It

961
00:49:39,040 --> 00:49:42,399
Speaker 2: doesn't it This is astro turf. It's not grass. It's

962
00:49:42,400 --> 00:49:47,080
Speaker 2: not gonna get muddy. Like at one point it was awesome, Yeah,

963
00:49:47,120 --> 00:49:49,800
Speaker 2: but then all of a sudden, you realize some of

964
00:49:49,840 --> 00:49:52,200
Speaker 2: the drawbacks. And I think that's what you're saying as

965
00:49:52,239 --> 00:49:57,399
Speaker 2: well with like the Giants, Jets Stadium MetLife Stadium, is that, yeah,

966
00:49:57,400 --> 00:49:59,480
Speaker 2: it's awesome, but then now all of a sudden you're

967
00:49:59,480 --> 00:50:01,560
Speaker 2: starting to have problems, and then you're having more problems

968
00:50:01,600 --> 00:50:03,680
Speaker 2: and you're having non contact injuries, and you're like, you know,

969
00:50:03,760 --> 00:50:06,879
Speaker 2: let's do away with all of this. That's fine and dandy,

970
00:50:06,920 --> 00:50:10,040
Speaker 2: But when you're building these stadiums that half of them

971
00:50:10,080 --> 00:50:14,000
Speaker 2: are indoor and Phoenix has you know, the opening when yeah,

972
00:50:14,000 --> 00:50:17,480
Speaker 2: you can move it open and close. Yeah, Like they

973
00:50:17,520 --> 00:50:19,520
Speaker 2: still can't even get that right. Like it's not even

974
00:50:19,520 --> 00:50:22,319
Speaker 2: a closed stadium like where the Raiders are, where there's

975
00:50:22,480 --> 00:50:25,359
Speaker 2: is closed, but they they have the grass surface there.

976
00:50:25,400 --> 00:50:27,839
Speaker 2: That's that's the problem with all of it. I don't

977
00:50:27,840 --> 00:50:31,440
Speaker 2: want to sit here and call the Arizona Cardinals cheap

978
00:50:31,600 --> 00:50:35,400
Speaker 2: because I don't know the underlying fields of everything. But

979
00:50:35,880 --> 00:50:39,120
Speaker 2: the Dallas Cowboys take their training camp and go to Oxnard, California,

980
00:50:39,520 --> 00:50:42,200
Speaker 2: where it's thirty degrees cooler than it is where we

981
00:50:42,239 --> 00:50:44,920
Speaker 2: are in southern California. Yeah, and where what a thirty mile,

982
00:50:45,120 --> 00:50:48,200
Speaker 2: thirty minute drive away from Cowboys camp and where it's

983
00:50:48,280 --> 00:50:51,480
Speaker 2: usually held. You when you played for the Arizona Cardinals,

984
00:50:51,560 --> 00:50:54,360
Speaker 2: weren't practicing in Phoenix at that time. No, yeah, we

985
00:50:54,400 --> 00:50:55,120
Speaker 2: went to flag Staff.

986
00:50:55,200 --> 00:50:57,719
Speaker 3: Yeah, so we would go get away, get to a

987
00:50:57,719 --> 00:50:59,239
Speaker 3: look a cooler climate as well.

988
00:50:59,360 --> 00:51:01,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just to me, it was just shocking to

989
00:51:01,520 --> 00:51:03,680
Speaker 2: see that, Okay, this is the start, Like how good

990
00:51:03,760 --> 00:51:07,080
Speaker 2: is that field going to be in week six? And

991
00:51:07,200 --> 00:51:09,200
Speaker 2: I know, hey, we're gonna put new grass in, We're

992
00:51:09,200 --> 00:51:11,719
Speaker 2: gonna put new SOD in, yeah for sure. But yeah,

993
00:51:11,920 --> 00:51:15,279
Speaker 2: but the new SOD should be in right like they

994
00:51:15,360 --> 00:51:18,600
Speaker 2: like to this point, like this is the whenever they

995
00:51:18,680 --> 00:51:22,560
Speaker 2: end up playing their their home opener, Like that shouldn't

996
00:51:22,560 --> 00:51:24,920
Speaker 2: be the first day of the new SOD. You need

997
00:51:24,960 --> 00:51:27,839
Speaker 2: the soft launch in the preseason and then and then

998
00:51:27,920 --> 00:51:29,239
Speaker 2: have it set out. But when you have to have

999
00:51:29,239 --> 00:51:32,600
Speaker 2: training camp inside of the stadium because it's too hot

1000
00:51:32,600 --> 00:51:35,080
Speaker 2: out and you're not going on location, that's what you

1001
00:51:35,200 --> 00:51:36,919
Speaker 2: end up getting. I just thought it was a bad look.

1002
00:51:37,080 --> 00:51:38,840
Speaker 2: I just I was not a fan of it. And

1003
00:51:38,880 --> 00:51:42,280
Speaker 2: I thought in an era where you're trying to avoid

1004
00:51:42,400 --> 00:51:45,320
Speaker 2: all injuries in as many injuries as you can, I

1005
00:51:45,360 --> 00:51:47,120
Speaker 2: don't know how much I'd love playing on that sortch I.

1006
00:51:47,080 --> 00:51:50,759
Speaker 3: Mean it to perpetuate or to even add on to

1007
00:51:52,040 --> 00:51:54,280
Speaker 3: what I was saying about the cheapness of the situation,

1008
00:51:55,239 --> 00:51:58,720
Speaker 3: Like it sounds pretty cheap to have camp at your

1009
00:51:59,560 --> 00:52:03,240
Speaker 3: your a home field stadium. If you're going to flag Staff,

1010
00:52:03,239 --> 00:52:06,000
Speaker 3: that means you're at least shelfing out more money to

1011
00:52:06,760 --> 00:52:10,280
Speaker 3: you know, take these guys to a place where it's cooler,

1012
00:52:10,800 --> 00:52:12,760
Speaker 3: so they're not practicing on the field. You can implement

1013
00:52:12,760 --> 00:52:15,080
Speaker 3: the field and get it in there. So that's part

1014
00:52:15,120 --> 00:52:15,400
Speaker 3: of it.

1015
00:52:15,440 --> 00:52:18,040
Speaker 2: And I think the Cardinals will probably say, well, we

1016
00:52:18,040 --> 00:52:19,960
Speaker 2: could bring fans in. We could bring fans and they

1017
00:52:20,000 --> 00:52:22,440
Speaker 2: can watch practice and sit inside and we don't have

1018
00:52:22,480 --> 00:52:26,440
Speaker 2: to go anywhere. That's a nice experience. And honestly, I'll

1019
00:52:26,440 --> 00:52:29,279
Speaker 2: say this, I actually really like the Cardinals this year.

1020
00:52:29,360 --> 00:52:31,120
Speaker 2: They impressed me last year when I thought they were

1021
00:52:31,120 --> 00:52:33,240
Speaker 2: gonna be the worst team in the league. I actually

1022
00:52:33,239 --> 00:52:37,040
Speaker 2: think that the Cardinals could push for a playoff spot

1023
00:52:37,040 --> 00:52:38,840
Speaker 2: this year. As crazy as as that sounds. I know

1024
00:52:38,880 --> 00:52:40,960
Speaker 2: they have some holes, but it's not difficult to get

1025
00:52:40,960 --> 00:52:44,080
Speaker 2: a playoff spot now with seven teams in each conference.

1026
00:52:44,560 --> 00:52:48,080
Speaker 2: But it's just the fact of all right, what is

1027
00:52:48,080 --> 00:52:50,320
Speaker 2: his best, like, are you looking out for the fans?

1028
00:52:50,360 --> 00:52:52,520
Speaker 2: You're looking out for your players. The fans will be

1029
00:52:52,560 --> 00:52:55,279
Speaker 2: there if you win football games. Yeah, you know, there's

1030
00:52:55,680 --> 00:52:57,359
Speaker 2: I get you don't want to be outside when it's

1031
00:52:57,360 --> 00:52:59,719
Speaker 2: one hundred and fifteen degrees and you're not gonna have

1032
00:52:59,719 --> 00:53:01,600
Speaker 2: practic this at five in the morning, you know, and

1033
00:53:01,680 --> 00:53:03,959
Speaker 2: have a training camp practice that's not going to work out.

1034
00:53:04,440 --> 00:53:06,880
Speaker 2: But there's got to be something done. There's got to

1035
00:53:06,880 --> 00:53:09,200
Speaker 2: be some way to figure it out. And again we

1036
00:53:09,719 --> 00:53:12,360
Speaker 2: preach all grass fields, all grass fields are that's the

1037
00:53:12,400 --> 00:53:16,319
Speaker 2: way to go. It's not really possible. And even when

1038
00:53:16,360 --> 00:53:19,360
Speaker 2: we do have some grass fields, they end up looking

1039
00:53:19,440 --> 00:53:20,399
Speaker 2: like that and.

1040
00:53:20,320 --> 00:53:23,120
Speaker 3: The fans are gonna come regardless. The fans came to

1041
00:53:23,160 --> 00:53:25,400
Speaker 3: flag Staff, so oh sure, you know what I mean.

1042
00:53:25,480 --> 00:53:28,439
Speaker 3: So it's not about that. Would I would definitely think

1043
00:53:28,440 --> 00:53:29,760
Speaker 3: it's more about money.

1044
00:53:30,160 --> 00:53:32,919
Speaker 2: In my opinion, He's carry roads. I'm Dan Byer. This

1045
00:53:33,080 --> 00:53:36,600
Speaker 2: is Fox Sports Sunday, Jared Stindham getting the start for

1046
00:53:36,640 --> 00:53:39,200
Speaker 2: the Broncos at quarterback today. But there's been a lot

1047
00:53:39,200 --> 00:53:41,680
Speaker 2: of buzz about bo Nicks in the preseason that he

1048
00:53:41,760 --> 00:53:44,920
Speaker 2: has had. We expect to see some bon Knicks later

1049
00:53:45,000 --> 00:53:47,239
Speaker 2: on today. Hit them up at Carry twenty five Roads.

1050
00:53:47,239 --> 00:53:50,600
Speaker 2: You can find me at Dan Byer on Fox easy

1051
00:53:50,640 --> 00:53:54,879
Speaker 2: as one, two, three four, Maybe pretty easy for Carry Roads.

1052
00:53:54,960 --> 00:53:57,000
Speaker 2: How will you fair find out next year? On Fox

1053
00:53:57,000 --> 00:54:00,919
Speaker 2: Sports Radio. I love doing this show. Carry Roads is here.

1054
00:54:00,960 --> 00:54:04,719
Speaker 2: I'm Dan Byer. It's Fox Sports Sunday because we just

1055
00:54:04,719 --> 00:54:08,080
Speaker 2: did a topic that and something that's out of the

1056
00:54:10,360 --> 00:54:12,319
Speaker 2: you know, way out of the realm of sports. It

1057
00:54:12,480 --> 00:54:17,200
Speaker 2: is sports. It's what the Cardinals played on yesterday and

1058
00:54:18,719 --> 00:54:22,719
Speaker 2: the response that you get from people. Clint sweet Ten,

1059
00:54:24,440 --> 00:54:30,280
Speaker 2: Clint is a friend of our esteem technical producer Slash

1060
00:54:30,360 --> 00:54:34,959
Speaker 2: anchor Chris Purfett. Clint says, looks like that, didn't punch

1061
00:54:35,040 --> 00:54:38,880
Speaker 2: or verdicut late spring pure compaction in the middle. Arizona

1062
00:54:38,920 --> 00:54:41,480
Speaker 2: is one of the largest Bermuda sod producing states. No

1063
00:54:41,600 --> 00:54:44,120
Speaker 2: excuse for that. Four to one nine, So look like that,

1064
00:54:44,480 --> 00:54:48,120
Speaker 2: and they have optimal growing conditions. Hot and dry is

1065
00:54:48,160 --> 00:54:49,959
Speaker 2: what Bermuda loves, to be clear.

1066
00:54:50,040 --> 00:54:52,880
Speaker 5: My friend Clint, Clint Medland like he has worked on

1067
00:54:53,280 --> 00:54:56,120
Speaker 5: like golf. His specialty at Texas A and M was

1068
00:54:56,239 --> 00:54:59,919
Speaker 5: on surface conditions and he's worked on like golf course

1069
00:55:00,160 --> 00:55:02,400
Speaker 5: and stuff. He knows his Bermuda back and forth.

1070
00:55:02,640 --> 00:55:04,960
Speaker 3: Wow, what I need to hire him? Then you need

1071
00:55:04,960 --> 00:55:07,439
Speaker 3: to bring him in? Is he is he up for?

1072
00:55:07,680 --> 00:55:08,279
Speaker 3: Is he up for?

1073
00:55:08,680 --> 00:55:12,080
Speaker 9: He's He's worked in a lot of other industries too. Okay,

1074
00:55:12,080 --> 00:55:14,080
Speaker 9: and this is maybe this is his point. He's like,

1075
00:55:14,160 --> 00:55:16,759
Speaker 9: it's pure compaction. The reason why it's pure compaction is

1076
00:55:16,760 --> 00:55:19,080
Speaker 9: because they're having training camp there.

1077
00:55:19,280 --> 00:55:24,760
Speaker 2: Yes, so it's it's not just eleven guys on on

1078
00:55:24,800 --> 00:55:27,640
Speaker 2: the side of the football moving up and down the field.

1079
00:55:28,200 --> 00:55:31,560
Speaker 2: You've got eighty five guys all over the field for

1080
00:55:32,280 --> 00:55:37,600
Speaker 2: you know, constantly for probably two hours two and a

1081
00:55:37,640 --> 00:55:40,600
Speaker 2: half hours a day. Yes, and having that and it's

1082
00:55:40,640 --> 00:55:43,319
Speaker 2: the this is the field we get. And then what

1083
00:55:43,440 --> 00:55:46,680
Speaker 2: I do think happens is it puts your field. It

1084
00:55:46,800 --> 00:55:49,960
Speaker 2: compromises your field that you have. Then in the fall,

1085
00:55:50,640 --> 00:55:54,680
Speaker 2: if you if you you've had six months to get

1086
00:55:54,680 --> 00:55:57,840
Speaker 2: this bad boy right, and this is your unveiling to

1087
00:55:57,840 --> 00:56:00,399
Speaker 2: do so. Now essentially you're like, okay, let's in a month,

1088
00:56:00,440 --> 00:56:02,480
Speaker 2: we gotta rip this one out and we got to

1089
00:56:02,480 --> 00:56:05,920
Speaker 2: pull a whole new one in. And I just I

1090
00:56:05,920 --> 00:56:08,759
Speaker 2: would rather have six months of work than to have

1091
00:56:08,920 --> 00:56:12,320
Speaker 2: one month of work and try to have a field

1092
00:56:12,960 --> 00:56:13,960
Speaker 2: stick and be what it is.

1093
00:56:14,040 --> 00:56:16,719
Speaker 3: And then what happens with that is when it's not

1094
00:56:16,840 --> 00:56:19,799
Speaker 3: time to bring in that new sod yet, then they

1095
00:56:19,800 --> 00:56:22,479
Speaker 3: start painting the field and that makes it even worse.

1096
00:56:22,560 --> 00:56:26,160
Speaker 2: Sure, residing is something that is not foreign to the

1097
00:56:26,239 --> 00:56:28,840
Speaker 2: National Football League. We see it a lot. But I'm sorry,

1098
00:56:29,239 --> 00:56:32,040
Speaker 2: residing is not better than what you have at the original.

1099
00:56:32,040 --> 00:56:34,400
Speaker 2: And that's the point that we're talking about. Gosh, I

1100
00:56:34,440 --> 00:56:38,319
Speaker 2: loved Clint's breakdown. It's good to know people. Chris Purfet, Right,

1101
00:56:38,960 --> 00:56:41,799
Speaker 2: that's why those those lawn videos on TikTok, you know,

1102
00:56:41,840 --> 00:56:45,279
Speaker 2: the guys just get like a truckload of sand and

1103
00:56:45,320 --> 00:56:47,720
Speaker 2: then they're they're watering it. Like I talked to my neighbor,

1104
00:56:47,840 --> 00:56:50,680
Speaker 2: like we were both watching the same TikTok lawn videos

1105
00:56:50,680 --> 00:56:52,400
Speaker 2: and we're like, yeah, we should do that with our

1106
00:56:52,480 --> 00:56:54,600
Speaker 2: law because our lawns end up connecting where we live.

1107
00:56:54,920 --> 00:56:58,520
Speaker 5: Appreciation anyone in life who has a tremendous knowledge of

1108
00:56:58,640 --> 00:57:00,960
Speaker 5: one thing you don't think about too much, but like

1109
00:57:01,040 --> 00:57:03,880
Speaker 5: when something like this comes up, you absolutely want experts

1110
00:57:03,920 --> 00:57:04,480
Speaker 5: in that field.

1111
00:57:04,760 --> 00:57:06,600
Speaker 3: Well, and the only the only thing that I would

1112
00:57:06,640 --> 00:57:09,560
Speaker 3: associate all of this too is when I was back

1113
00:57:09,560 --> 00:57:12,680
Speaker 3: home in Alabama, in the hood and we would have

1114
00:57:12,760 --> 00:57:14,719
Speaker 3: to spray to week be gone in certain spots, and

1115
00:57:14,719 --> 00:57:19,400
Speaker 3: it leave the little ground, the little brown spot. That's

1116
00:57:19,440 --> 00:57:20,320
Speaker 3: what I equated to.

1117
00:57:20,520 --> 00:57:22,680
Speaker 2: This is why when you try to what lay sad

1118
00:57:22,920 --> 00:57:26,040
Speaker 2: where home plate was, it's ever gonna grow, right, it's

1119
00:57:26,040 --> 00:57:28,120
Speaker 2: too compacted that it's already the batter's box and the

1120
00:57:28,120 --> 00:57:30,040
Speaker 2: whole deal. All right, you're ready to strike up the

1121
00:57:30,040 --> 00:57:32,200
Speaker 2: band and let's do it, all right, a game of

1122
00:57:32,280 --> 00:57:35,919
Speaker 2: easy as one, two, three, four is here. I think

1123
00:57:35,960 --> 00:57:38,960
Speaker 2: carry's gonna get a perfect score. Oh my god, I

1124
00:57:39,040 --> 00:57:42,000
Speaker 2: really do so. Set that to set the overarres. Set

1125
00:57:42,000 --> 00:57:43,760
Speaker 2: it up. It's nine and a half. I think it's

1126
00:57:43,800 --> 00:57:49,160
Speaker 2: nine and a half. And the reason being twofold Number one,

1127
00:57:51,000 --> 00:57:54,840
Speaker 2: I was up late doing this, so my my ability

1128
00:57:54,880 --> 00:57:59,240
Speaker 2: to really really dive in and try to be creative

1129
00:57:59,280 --> 00:58:03,160
Speaker 2: with some of the questions may have been hampered by it.

1130
00:58:03,400 --> 00:58:05,680
Speaker 2: But number two, there's also like not tons going on,

1131
00:58:06,520 --> 00:58:09,000
Speaker 2: and in fact, one of the questions has nothing to

1132
00:58:09,000 --> 00:58:10,960
Speaker 2: do with anything that's going on right now. But it's

1133
00:58:11,000 --> 00:58:13,400
Speaker 2: just a fun question that I like to put in there. Okay,

1134
00:58:13,480 --> 00:58:15,480
Speaker 2: but I think you're going to do well in the others.

1135
00:58:15,520 --> 00:58:17,840
Speaker 2: Are you ready to play. Let's do it. Carrie's got

1136
00:58:17,840 --> 00:58:21,040
Speaker 2: three lifelines, Chris Purfett, Bo Bent and our executive producer

1137
00:58:21,040 --> 00:58:23,920
Speaker 2: and Isaac Lohankron at the news desk. He needs to

1138
00:58:23,920 --> 00:58:25,920
Speaker 2: get a perfect score of ten, where I give him

1139
00:58:25,960 --> 00:58:27,680
Speaker 2: four questions and he doesn't have to give me all

1140
00:58:27,720 --> 00:58:29,840
Speaker 2: of the right answers, just some of them. And again,

1141
00:58:30,160 --> 00:58:32,880
Speaker 2: a perfect score is ten. You're over under today is

1142
00:58:33,000 --> 00:58:35,440
Speaker 2: nine and a half. So anything other than a perfect

1143
00:58:35,480 --> 00:58:38,560
Speaker 2: score will be a disappointment. Oh my god, Carry Rhoads

1144
00:58:38,640 --> 00:58:41,360
Speaker 2: name one of two of the oldest players in the

1145
00:58:41,440 --> 00:58:43,520
Speaker 2: NFL entering the twenty twenty four season.

1146
00:58:44,000 --> 00:58:48,520
Speaker 3: One of two. I mean, I will go Aaron Rodgers,

1147
00:58:49,360 --> 00:58:52,800
Speaker 3: show me Aaron Rodgers. Yes, he is going to turn

1148
00:58:52,880 --> 00:58:58,440
Speaker 3: forty one later this year. According to my account, oldest

1149
00:58:58,440 --> 00:59:02,600
Speaker 3: player in the NFL's Lewis Yeah, yeah, right now.

1150
00:59:02,640 --> 00:59:05,800
Speaker 2: The Chicago Bears forty years old. He is second. Matt

1151
00:59:05,880 --> 00:59:09,800
Speaker 2: Prater just turned forty yesterday. So those are your three

1152
00:59:09,880 --> 00:59:12,640
Speaker 2: forty year olds. In the National Football League, you usually

1153
00:59:12,680 --> 00:59:15,000
Speaker 2: have like four or five kickers or punters that you

1154
00:59:15,000 --> 00:59:18,959
Speaker 2: know stuck around, but the kicking game has gotten younger

1155
00:59:18,960 --> 00:59:20,960
Speaker 2: in the National generation. Yeah.

1156
00:59:20,960 --> 00:59:24,040
Speaker 3: The fact that Marcedes Lewis is still planned. Is it's

1157
00:59:24,120 --> 00:59:28,560
Speaker 3: the weirdest most it is. This very odd for a

1158
00:59:28,640 --> 00:59:31,080
Speaker 3: skilled position player to be still planned. So that's pretty

1159
00:59:31,120 --> 00:59:32,080
Speaker 3: pretty spectacular.

1160
00:59:32,520 --> 00:59:36,560
Speaker 2: All right. The Summer Games are in the books. Carry

1161
00:59:36,640 --> 00:59:40,000
Speaker 2: roads name two of three countries with the most medals

1162
00:59:40,000 --> 00:59:41,800
Speaker 2: in the twenty twenty four Summer Olympics.

1163
00:59:42,320 --> 00:59:46,360
Speaker 3: Go the United States, USA, and I'll go China.

1164
00:59:47,080 --> 00:59:50,320
Speaker 2: Those are your final answers. Yes, show me the United States.

1165
00:59:50,640 --> 00:59:56,200
Speaker 2: They are one twenty six, Show me China, all right,

1166
00:59:56,400 --> 01:00:01,600
Speaker 2: ninety one. Did you know who third was? I would

1167
01:00:01,640 --> 01:00:04,480
Speaker 2: go France would be third. No, wait, wait, wait, I

1168
01:00:04,560 --> 01:00:05,520
Speaker 2: saw I saw Chris.

1169
01:00:05,840 --> 01:00:05,960
Speaker 3: Is that.

1170
01:00:07,640 --> 01:00:09,760
Speaker 2: We've already got got to answer. Yeah, yeah, let's see

1171
01:00:09,760 --> 01:00:12,760
Speaker 2: who would be third? It would be Great Britain, Great Britain.

1172
01:00:12,880 --> 01:00:15,680
Speaker 2: I'll definitely go that's yeah, that is correct. Yeah, by

1173
01:00:15,800 --> 01:00:19,360
Speaker 2: one medal is by France was fourth with sixty four.

1174
01:00:19,520 --> 01:00:24,600
Speaker 2: Great Britain was third sixty five, and then Australia came in. See.

1175
01:00:24,600 --> 01:00:26,640
Speaker 2: That would have been a trick question too, because I

1176
01:00:26,680 --> 01:00:28,040
Speaker 2: saw France is up there.

1177
01:00:28,080 --> 01:00:30,160
Speaker 5: It's always different when you sorted by gold medals, because

1178
01:00:30,160 --> 01:00:32,240
Speaker 5: then Japan would be third because they had the third

1179
01:00:32,280 --> 01:00:34,960
Speaker 5: most gold medals at twenty got it. I think they

1180
01:00:35,000 --> 01:00:36,680
Speaker 5: only had like forty total or something.

1181
01:00:37,000 --> 01:00:40,560
Speaker 2: I would have changed it up, but it was the

1182
01:00:40,600 --> 01:00:43,040
Speaker 2: two of three question. Yeah, and so it was gonna

1183
01:00:43,040 --> 01:00:45,680
Speaker 2: be the US in China. Anyway. I could have done

1184
01:00:45,720 --> 01:00:49,400
Speaker 2: most silvers, but I don't think anybody was. And he

1185
01:00:49,480 --> 01:00:52,120
Speaker 2: was really keeping track of that, by the way, US

1186
01:00:52,160 --> 01:00:57,040
Speaker 2: first and silvers and then France China second. France had

1187
01:00:57,080 --> 01:00:59,919
Speaker 2: twenty six in third. All right, you are three for three.

1188
01:01:00,120 --> 01:01:03,000
Speaker 2: I told you, oh, this is this is my This

1189
01:01:03,120 --> 01:01:07,000
Speaker 2: is my favorite question. Not because I am trying to

1190
01:01:07,120 --> 01:01:11,440
Speaker 2: rain on the parade of this sport, but I think

1191
01:01:11,760 --> 01:01:13,840
Speaker 2: what it does is it tells you on like how

1192
01:01:13,880 --> 01:01:18,520
Speaker 2: busy your life is and how certain things have happened. Carrie,

1233
01:03:54,520 --> 01:03:55,320
Speaker 2: little little guy.

1234

Speaker 5: by me and like we're both sweating to death.

1236
01:03:59,720 --> 01:03:59,919
Speaker 1: Here.

1237
01:04:00,240 --> 01:04:03,520
Speaker 2: Here's my favorite thing about Carrie Rhodes is that Carrie

1238
01:04:03,600 --> 01:04:09,120
Speaker 2: Rhoads is a NFL All Pro, top level athlete, and

1239
01:04:09,120 --> 01:04:12,040
Speaker 2: when he was making his way through school, probably played

1240
01:04:12,560 --> 01:04:15,000
Speaker 2: I don't know, Yeah, I know you played football, but

1241
01:04:15,200 --> 01:04:19,479
Speaker 2: maybe basketball, ran track, the lifted weights, the whole deal.

1242
01:04:20,600 --> 01:04:23,360
Speaker 2: His biggest draw in Atlanta was to go see Dominique

1243
01:04:23,400 --> 01:04:26,520
Speaker 2: Kauz in US gymnastics, no question, that is what you

1244
01:04:26,560 --> 01:04:30,880
Speaker 2: get with you. And the boy was a fourteen years

1245
01:04:30,880 --> 01:04:32,440
Speaker 2: old fifteen years old at the time.

1246
01:04:32,920 --> 01:04:36,000
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, it was I think every little boy's dream

1247
01:04:36,080 --> 01:04:36,560
Speaker 3: at that time.

1248
01:04:37,880 --> 01:04:41,000
Speaker 2: Sure, showing up in Atlanta. What were you checking out

1249
01:04:41,040 --> 01:04:43,480
Speaker 2: in Atlanta, Chris perpet I so.

1250
01:04:43,560 --> 01:04:46,000
Speaker 5: I was only ten, so I barely have any memory

1251
01:04:46,000 --> 01:04:49,960
Speaker 5: of it besides how damn hot it was and trading pins.

1252
01:04:50,800 --> 01:04:53,200
Speaker 5: I don't think Sydney was one. I remember a lot

1253
01:04:53,240 --> 01:04:54,439
Speaker 5: more of what sports I saw.

1254
01:04:54,840 --> 01:04:57,080
Speaker 2: This is his humble break to be like I also

1255
01:04:57,280 --> 01:05:01,040
Speaker 2: is that. Yeah, I got to get in both, all right.

1256
01:05:01,400 --> 01:05:05,160
Speaker 2: So Georgia, we showed. We showed Georgia. Right, we unveiled that.

1257
01:05:05,200 --> 01:05:11,440
Speaker 2: Show me California, show me Utah, and show me Missouri.

1258
01:05:11,920 --> 01:05:15,160
Speaker 2: The show me State gives Carrie Rhoades a perfect score

1259
01:05:15,800 --> 01:05:20,960
Speaker 2: love ten. Yeah, it was correct. See a really easy

1260
01:05:21,040 --> 01:05:24,160
Speaker 2: game today, and yeah, New York the other Lake Placid

1261
01:05:24,200 --> 01:05:26,960
Speaker 2: held the Winter Games in nineteen thirty two and nineteen

1262
01:05:27,120 --> 01:05:29,800
Speaker 2: eighty an easy game of easy as one, two, three,

1263
01:05:29,840 --> 01:05:34,320
Speaker 2: four today it was. It was. It was fairly fairly easy.

1264
01:05:35,360 --> 01:05:36,960
Speaker 2: And I was surprised.

1265
01:05:36,400 --> 01:05:39,320
Speaker 3: Because you you put the pressure on me to get

1266
01:05:39,360 --> 01:05:40,919
Speaker 3: that nine and a half, so you know, you could

1267
01:05:40,920 --> 01:05:43,520
Speaker 3: take that in a different way and feel the pressure

1268
01:05:43,600 --> 01:05:44,280
Speaker 3: to succeed.

1269
01:05:44,920 --> 01:05:46,960
Speaker 2: I thought the final four one was going to be

1270
01:05:47,000 --> 01:05:50,760
Speaker 2: the curveball, and then I realized when you got Alabama,

1271
01:05:50,800 --> 01:05:54,760
Speaker 2: I'm like, oh, that's right, because I think people remember

1272
01:05:54,880 --> 01:05:58,120
Speaker 2: purduing you Kon. Yeah, but also it's just the fact

1273
01:05:58,160 --> 01:06:02,439
Speaker 2: of people have enjoyed their summer. The NCAA tournament feels

1274
01:06:02,480 --> 01:06:03,800
Speaker 2: like it's a long way away, and you're like, wait

1275
01:06:03,800 --> 01:06:06,440
Speaker 2: a second, who played in those other semi finals. We

1276
01:06:06,480 --> 01:06:09,200
Speaker 2: had Alabama play out here against Clemson in the regional final,

1277
01:06:09,600 --> 01:06:12,240
Speaker 2: But the NC State one, who was kind of the

1278
01:06:12,280 --> 01:06:14,400
Speaker 2: story of the n CUBA Tournament's the one that you

1279
01:06:14,480 --> 01:06:15,960
Speaker 2: end up kind of forgetting.

1280
01:06:16,000 --> 01:06:18,120
Speaker 3: And the only reason I forgot is because they beat Duke,

1281
01:06:18,200 --> 01:06:19,600
Speaker 3: So I didn't want to remember.

1282
01:06:19,280 --> 01:06:21,760
Speaker 5: Them, you know, I think I think it's just impressive

1283
01:06:21,800 --> 01:06:24,920
Speaker 5: carry got through those first three without needing a lifeline

1284
01:06:24,920 --> 01:06:25,760
Speaker 5: at all either.

1285
01:06:25,720 --> 01:06:30,280
Speaker 2: Yes, Aaron Rodgers, Numeral Uno, and then you were on

1286
01:06:30,320 --> 01:06:33,360
Speaker 2: the fence about the third medal, but we only needed

1287
01:06:33,400 --> 01:06:34,200
Speaker 2: two and so.

1288
01:06:34,320 --> 01:06:36,480
Speaker 5: Yeah, just kind of just kind of sitting there like

1289
01:06:36,520 --> 01:06:37,960
Speaker 5: it's fine, I don't want to talk all to day.

1290
01:06:38,040 --> 01:06:42,040
Speaker 2: So We're good both. We love you man. We'll we'll

1291
01:06:42,040 --> 01:06:44,760
Speaker 2: tighten the screws next week when we moved to our

1294
01:06:52,640 --> 01:06:54,600
Speaker 2: I'm going golfing. So I think it's going to be

1295
01:06:54,600 --> 01:06:56,200
Speaker 2: you and Harmon hanging. It's just going to be me.

1326
01:08:29,680 --> 01:08:35,600
Speaker 7: were earlier today in Paris, French police arrested a shirtless

1327
01:08:35,640 --> 01:08:40,920
Speaker 7: man with a British accent for climbing approximately halfway up

1328
01:08:40,960 --> 01:08:45,040
Speaker 7: the outside of the Eiffel Tower. He went about five

1329
01:08:45,200 --> 01:08:48,840
Speaker 7: hundred feet up the Eiffel Tower before he was intercepted

1330
01:08:48,960 --> 01:08:53,880
Speaker 7: by cops and arrested. And here is video from a

1331
01:08:54,120 --> 01:08:59,320
Speaker 7: bystander commenting on this individual climbing up the Eiffel Tower.

1332
01:09:00,040 --> 01:09:03,400
Speaker 2: Dude, climb in the Eiffel Tower. He just passed the

1333
01:09:03,400 --> 01:09:07,120
Speaker 2: blue ring. I don't think he's wearing a shirt.

1334
01:09:07,320 --> 01:09:07,439
Speaker 3: Now.

1335
01:09:07,479 --> 01:09:11,080
Speaker 7: The reason we know the gentleman has a British accent

1336
01:09:11,360 --> 01:09:15,360
Speaker 7: is while he was being escorted away by the cops,

1337
01:09:15,439 --> 01:09:16,439
Speaker 7: he made the.

1338
01:09:16,280 --> 01:09:22,120
Speaker 6: Following comment bloody warm, bloody warm.

1339
01:09:22,520 --> 01:09:23,200
Speaker 1: And on that.

1340
01:09:23,080 --> 01:09:26,000
Speaker 6: Note, that's it for the twenty twenty four Olympics.

1341
01:09:26,160 --> 01:09:28,360
Speaker 2: Back to you, Thank you very much, Isaac. And by

1342
01:09:28,360 --> 01:09:30,920
Speaker 2: the way, as Carrie and I drove in today, one

1343
01:09:30,920 --> 01:09:33,440
Speaker 2: of our exit ramps was on fire in southern California,

1344
01:09:33,520 --> 01:09:35,959
Speaker 2: so it kind of rivals some of the news in Paris.

1345
01:09:36,560 --> 01:09:40,839
Speaker 2: It was on fire. Yeah, just not the actual pavement,

1346
01:09:41,200 --> 01:09:43,519
Speaker 2: but just the grass that was next to what was

1347
01:09:43,600 --> 01:09:48,040
Speaker 2: the freeway and then the exit ramp that was on fire. Yeah,

1348
01:09:48,360 --> 01:09:53,479
Speaker 2: So Covida was hot. It was hot coming the things

1349
01:09:53,479 --> 01:09:55,559
Speaker 2: that you will see. And Isaac, by the way, has

1350
01:09:55,600 --> 01:10:00,160
Speaker 2: brought the French call of the US basketball win on set.

1351
01:10:00,840 --> 01:10:04,000
Speaker 2: And then we have the British man who feels is

1352
01:10:04,080 --> 01:10:06,080
Speaker 2: just way too Hot to climb the Eiffel Tower and

1353
01:10:06,160 --> 01:10:09,880
Speaker 2: then the American Playboy play version of that, bringing the

1354
01:10:09,920 --> 01:10:12,640
Speaker 2: heat as the Olympics have come to an end. All right,

1374
01:11:18,680 --> 01:11:23,720

1375
01:11:23,760 --> 01:11:26,080

1376
01:11:26,120 --> 01:11:29,160
Speaker 2: official dates of the twenty twenty eight Olympic Games, so

1377
01:11:29,280 --> 01:11:31,840
Speaker 2: a little bit earlier than these games. We've got some

1378
01:11:31,960 --> 01:11:36,400
Speaker 2: news on that. But we are one weekend, almost one

1379
01:11:36,479 --> 01:11:39,720
Speaker 2: full weekend to the NFL preseason, still trying to get

1380
01:11:39,720 --> 01:11:42,920
Speaker 2: accustomed to the new rules, get familiar with the new

1381
01:11:43,000 --> 01:11:45,880
Speaker 2: rules on the kickoff, and we are not alone and

1382
01:11:45,960 --> 01:11:48,840
Speaker 2: trying to figure out what happened because last night in

1383
01:11:48,920 --> 01:11:53,439
Speaker 2: the Chiefs Jaguars game, the Kansas City Chiefs saw a

1384
01:11:53,520 --> 01:11:56,360
Speaker 2: kick bounce into the end zone and then it bounced

1385
01:11:56,400 --> 01:11:59,559
Speaker 2: forward into the landing zone. And so what the Chiefs

1386
01:11:59,560 --> 01:12:01,080
Speaker 2: did is they took the ball and then took a

1387
01:12:01,160 --> 01:12:04,320
Speaker 2: knee in the end zone, and the referee said, Chiefs

1388
01:12:04,360 --> 01:12:09,000
Speaker 2: ball thirty yard line. Yeah, that's not the rule. The

1389
01:12:09,080 --> 01:12:13,280
Speaker 2: rule is. There are a lot of different rules. I

1390
01:12:13,280 --> 01:12:15,360
Speaker 2: don't even know if I can explain them all to you,

1391
01:12:16,120 --> 01:12:21,000
Speaker 2: but the Jaguars and Doug Peterson had communication from his

1392
01:12:21,160 --> 01:12:24,599
Speaker 2: people saying, no, that should be a safety because even

1393
01:12:24,600 --> 01:12:26,599
Speaker 2: though the ball landed at a certain point, it bounced

1394
01:12:26,640 --> 01:12:29,519
Speaker 2: in the field of play, and then the Chiefs player

1395
01:12:29,640 --> 01:12:32,599
Speaker 2: took the football and went back into the end zone

1396
01:12:32,600 --> 01:12:36,439
Speaker 2: and downed it. It was therefore a safety, but the

1397
01:12:36,560 --> 01:12:39,800
Speaker 2: referees needed to confer because they were about to give

1398
01:12:39,840 --> 01:12:43,240
Speaker 2: the Chiefs the football at the thirty yard line. It's

1399
01:12:43,280 --> 01:12:46,080
Speaker 2: not going to happen all the time, but this is

1400
01:12:46,160 --> 01:12:50,120
Speaker 2: such a drastic change carry from what we have had.

1401
01:12:50,160 --> 01:12:51,639
Speaker 2: I don't know if there was a way to soft

1402
01:12:51,760 --> 01:12:55,639
Speaker 2: launch anything. If these are the scabs and the wounds

1403
01:12:55,640 --> 01:12:59,439
Speaker 2: that we have to deal with in the preseason. But

1404
01:12:59,680 --> 01:13:05,160
Speaker 2: last an officiating crew even got the call wrong for

1405
01:13:05,280 --> 01:13:08,080
Speaker 2: how it was pursued. Now, the officiating crew may have said, oh,

1406
01:13:08,120 --> 01:13:10,519
Speaker 2: we didn't see the ball. We didn't, But then that

1407
01:13:10,560 --> 01:13:12,800
Speaker 2: tells you that there's a there's a part of the

1408
01:13:12,880 --> 01:13:16,920
Speaker 2: play that an official could be confused on. It's just

1409
01:13:17,080 --> 01:13:19,800
Speaker 2: right now. It is going to take a while for

1410
01:13:19,880 --> 01:13:23,480
Speaker 2: this to actually work. But last night the NFL officials

1411
01:13:23,520 --> 01:13:26,320
Speaker 2: actually didn't understand the kickoff rule. Yeah, it's gonna take

1412
01:13:26,360 --> 01:13:26,719
Speaker 2: some time.

1413
01:13:26,960 --> 01:13:32,639
Speaker 3: It's a lot of I guess, ancillary situations that can

1414
01:13:32,680 --> 01:13:39,240
Speaker 3: come from a normal just mundane could be mundane, part

1415
01:13:39,280 --> 01:13:41,160
Speaker 3: of the game could be a little bit more interesting.

1416
01:13:41,200 --> 01:13:43,080
Speaker 3: So we'll see what happens with all this. And this

1417
01:13:43,200 --> 01:13:44,160
Speaker 3: is this is the rule.

1418
01:13:44,240 --> 01:13:47,599
Speaker 2: So if the kick hits in the end zone, stays

1419
01:13:47,640 --> 01:13:54,599
Speaker 2: in bounds, is returned or downed. If it's downed, it's

1420
01:13:54,640 --> 01:13:58,960
Speaker 2: then a touchback to the thirty yard line. That's what

1421
01:13:59,000 --> 01:14:04,160
Speaker 2: they thought happened. But this was one that came into

1422
01:14:04,160 --> 01:14:06,800
Speaker 2: the end zone and then went into the landing zone

1423
01:14:07,240 --> 01:14:08,920
Speaker 2: and then the Chiefs brought it out of the landing

1424
01:14:09,000 --> 01:14:11,800
Speaker 2: zone and brought it back out so and brought it

1425
01:14:11,840 --> 01:14:15,280
Speaker 2: back into the end zone, completely confusing. Yes, in fact,

1426
01:14:15,439 --> 01:14:20,000
Speaker 2: this scenario that was brought that happened last night was

1427
01:14:20,040 --> 01:14:24,360
Speaker 2: not in the NFL's explanation of rules on how this

1428
01:14:24,520 --> 01:14:26,679
Speaker 2: is all going to lay out. And there are rules

1429
01:14:26,720 --> 01:14:29,280
Speaker 2: with the onside kick that the NFL hasn't even explained that.

1430
01:14:29,280 --> 01:14:31,479
Speaker 2: I don't think people are going to understand. They just

1431
01:14:31,520 --> 01:14:35,160
Speaker 2: said normal on side kick rules, but there's a different

1432
01:14:35,240 --> 01:14:37,840
Speaker 2: layer to it. It's just all it's all going to

1433
01:14:37,880 --> 01:14:40,560
Speaker 2: be really confusing. And last night, even the NFL officials

1434
01:14:40,880 --> 01:14:44,800
Speaker 2: were confused by it. I'm going to be confused a

1435
01:14:44,800 --> 01:14:46,960
Speaker 2: little bit in twenty twenty eight, and I understand that

1436
01:14:47,040 --> 01:14:51,960
Speaker 2: this conversation here is maybe more local than anything else.

1437
01:14:52,560 --> 01:14:55,599
Speaker 2: But Paris will now hand off to Los Angeles as

1438
01:14:55,640 --> 01:14:57,840
Speaker 2: the host of the Summer Olympics, and we are getting

1439
01:14:58,240 --> 01:15:00,600
Speaker 2: the Summer Olympics back in the United States for the

1440
01:15:00,600 --> 01:15:04,960
Speaker 2: first time since you and Chris Purfett attended the nineteen

1441
01:15:05,040 --> 01:15:08,160
Speaker 2: ninety six Games in Atlanta. Yes, so they are back

1442
01:15:08,200 --> 01:15:11,240
Speaker 2: in Los Angeles in twenty twenty eight. It was announced

1443
01:15:11,320 --> 01:15:16,440
Speaker 2: yesterday by LA Mayor Karen Bass and speaking with reporters

1444
01:15:16,439 --> 01:15:23,680
Speaker 2: at the Paris Olympics that all Olympic venues will be

1445
01:15:23,840 --> 01:15:31,360
Speaker 2: accessible by public transportation only. No cars going to these events.

1446
01:15:31,640 --> 01:15:35,560
Speaker 2: It is a car free Olympics in the NFL. Excuse me,

1447
01:15:35,560 --> 01:15:41,639
Speaker 2: the NFL, the City of Los Angeles is urging all

1448
01:15:41,800 --> 01:15:47,360
Speaker 2: employees in companies to work from home, to not go

1449
01:15:47,400 --> 01:15:49,599
Speaker 2: to work for those two weeks. I was not here

1450
01:15:49,600 --> 01:15:52,080
Speaker 2: in nineteen eighty four. I do not know what the

1451
01:15:52,120 --> 01:15:54,120
Speaker 2: Olympics were like in nineteen eighty four. I know one

1452
01:15:54,160 --> 01:15:58,759
Speaker 2: person who was, and Steve Hartman, after setting up next

1453
01:15:59,040 --> 01:16:01,080
Speaker 2: you cann tell us all about it. But by my

1454
01:16:01,240 --> 01:16:03,840
Speaker 2: understanding is that the streets were pretty clear because people

1455
01:16:03,840 --> 01:16:06,360
Speaker 2: stayed away in nineteen eighty four, and that's what they're

1456
01:16:06,400 --> 01:16:09,479
Speaker 2: asking everyone to do in twenty twenty eight. They are

1457
01:16:09,520 --> 01:16:12,920
Speaker 2: also going to bring in three thousand buses to move

1458
01:16:12,960 --> 01:16:16,240
Speaker 2: people around to different venues in Los Angeles so they

1459
01:16:16,240 --> 01:16:20,040
Speaker 2: can go to those Olympic Games. This sounds like an

1460
01:16:20,080 --> 01:16:23,920
Speaker 2: absolute nightmare, and it's four years away. I can't imagine.

1461
01:16:24,400 --> 01:16:29,280
Speaker 2: I'm all for public transportation, I'm all for that, but

1462
01:16:29,360 --> 01:16:33,160
Speaker 2: this city is not built for that, and it just

1463
01:16:33,200 --> 01:16:35,599
Speaker 2: seems like it's a fingers crossed sort of deal.

1464
01:16:36,240 --> 01:16:40,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, I won't be attending anything by public transportation, so

1465
01:16:40,920 --> 01:16:43,160
Speaker 3: I guess I would be absent from these the twenty

1466
01:16:43,200 --> 01:16:47,920
Speaker 3: twenty eight games. But no, it sounds like a disaster.

1467
01:16:48,040 --> 01:16:49,840
Speaker 3: It sounds like something that they're trying to, you know,

1468
01:16:49,840 --> 01:16:52,479
Speaker 3: get in front of Obviously they've done it before, they say,

1469
01:16:53,360 --> 01:16:55,679
Speaker 3: But it doesn't sound like it would be a good idea.

1470
01:16:55,760 --> 01:16:58,080
Speaker 3: And I don't even have like a valid reason why,

1471
01:16:58,240 --> 01:16:59,840
Speaker 3: but it just doesn't sound right.

1472
01:17:00,040 --> 01:17:02,840
Speaker 2: I think we've got two places where there's opening ceremonies

1473
01:17:02,840 --> 01:17:07,439
Speaker 2: going on, and when you have two different venues. We

1474
01:17:07,439 --> 01:17:10,000
Speaker 2: were talking before the show. You don't even know necessarily

1475
01:17:10,160 --> 01:17:12,679
Speaker 2: where to have the torch, right, like it would seem

1476
01:17:12,720 --> 01:17:14,439
Speaker 2: like it would be the obvious fit. You just put

1477
01:17:14,439 --> 01:17:16,840
Speaker 2: it at the LA Coliseum where they've had torches, you know,

1478
01:17:16,880 --> 01:17:20,280
Speaker 2: the torch in the past of the games. But is

1479
01:17:20,320 --> 01:17:23,799
Speaker 2: that really gonna one up the hot air balloon torch

1480
01:17:24,479 --> 01:17:26,680
Speaker 2: that you know, grace the city of Paris over the

1481
01:17:26,760 --> 01:17:28,960
Speaker 2: last two weeks. Because you always want to be bigger. Yes,

1482
01:17:29,080 --> 01:17:30,760
Speaker 2: you always want to be better. You always want to

1483
01:17:30,800 --> 01:17:33,720
Speaker 2: one up it. And you know, by by a lot

1484
01:17:33,760 --> 01:17:36,679
Speaker 2: of the accounts, you know, Paris had a great Olympic Games.

1485
01:17:36,720 --> 01:17:39,559
Speaker 2: I don't know the inside and all the exact nuts

1486
01:17:39,560 --> 01:17:42,519
Speaker 2: and bolts of it, but I think overall it seemed

1487
01:17:42,520 --> 01:17:46,200
Speaker 2: to be a pretty successful games and everyone's interest in it.

1488
01:17:46,360 --> 01:17:48,160
Speaker 2: And now it's going to be LA's turn to try

1489
01:17:48,200 --> 01:17:51,639
Speaker 2: to outdo that and well mineus. The opening ceremonies, which

1490
01:17:51,680 --> 01:17:55,360
Speaker 2: was a little over the top, I would I feel

1491
01:17:55,400 --> 01:17:58,639
Speaker 2: in sense other than that, yes, everything else is pretty smooth.

1492
01:17:58,760 --> 01:17:59,080
Speaker 1: You are.

1493
01:18:00,080 --> 01:18:03,240
Speaker 2: Celine Dion was great, She was the best. She was great.

1494
01:18:03,760 --> 01:18:07,360
Speaker 2: And when you have the athletes coming in on the river, hey, perfect,

1495
01:18:07,680 --> 01:18:13,479
Speaker 2: that's that's it's unique at all. They stayed. They stayed

1496
01:18:13,479 --> 01:18:15,960
Speaker 2: outside of it, Yes, as best you could. Like when

1497
01:18:16,000 --> 01:18:20,400
Speaker 2: you have that like, that's a great way. I don't know. Again,

1498
01:18:20,720 --> 01:18:22,799
Speaker 2: there is something to see all of the athletes filing

1499
01:18:22,840 --> 01:18:25,800
Speaker 2: into the you know, to an arena. But I thought

1500
01:18:25,840 --> 01:18:28,120
Speaker 2: that it was unique in what Paris did. La is

1501
01:18:28,160 --> 01:18:30,080
Speaker 2: going to try to top it. Here's the other thing

1502
01:18:30,120 --> 01:18:32,080
Speaker 2: where I think that they went wrong and trying to

1503
01:18:33,120 --> 01:18:36,320
Speaker 2: trying to determine all of this. There's one simple solution.

1504
01:18:37,400 --> 01:18:40,760
Speaker 2: Don't call buses buses. If you were to say we

1505
01:18:40,800 --> 01:18:45,839
Speaker 2: are going to have three thousand shuttles, completely different. Nobody

1506
01:18:45,920 --> 01:18:48,280
Speaker 2: wants to get on a bus. No, No one wants

1507
01:18:48,360 --> 01:18:50,360
Speaker 2: to be moved around. So when you say we were

1508
01:18:50,360 --> 01:18:53,759
Speaker 2: bringing in three thousand buses to take over the roadways,

1509
01:18:54,200 --> 01:18:57,400
Speaker 2: just say three thousand shuttles. It sounds a lot easier

1510
01:18:57,479 --> 01:19:00,200
Speaker 2: and as much easier to swallow.

1511
01:19:00,720 --> 01:19:04,080
Speaker 3: A little more, a little more like it seems classy

1512
01:19:04,840 --> 01:19:08,920
Speaker 3: with a shuttle, Like you go onto a mysterious Hollywood

1513
01:19:08,960 --> 01:19:09,839
Speaker 3: party in the hills.

1514
01:19:10,160 --> 01:19:11,439
Speaker 2: You're not saying I'm going by bus.

1515
01:19:11,760 --> 01:19:13,519
Speaker 3: We got shuttles on the bottom, are going to take

1516
01:19:13,560 --> 01:19:15,040
Speaker 3: you up and next picket to the top and it

1517
01:19:15,120 --> 01:19:16,000
Speaker 3: sounds elegant.

1518
01:19:16,120 --> 01:19:19,320
Speaker 2: I've been on many covering a golf tournament because a

1519
01:19:19,360 --> 01:19:22,320
Speaker 2: lot of golf courses don't have the infrastructure to end

1520
01:19:22,400 --> 01:19:26,000
Speaker 2: up supporting a tournament normally, so it's a one officer.

1521
01:19:26,040 --> 01:19:29,000
Speaker 2: You have to shuttle everything, and they have big coach buses,

1522
01:19:29,040 --> 01:19:32,000
Speaker 2: but they call it a shuttle, and we know it's

1523
01:19:32,040 --> 01:19:34,960
Speaker 2: a bus, but it's a shuttle and it works for us.

1524
01:19:35,000 --> 01:19:37,960
Speaker 2: Something they'll look forward to in twenty twenty eighty. If

1525
01:19:37,960 --> 01:19:40,559
Speaker 2: you're planning, I.

1526
01:19:40,479 --> 01:19:42,040
Speaker 3: Guess I won't be there, Dan, You'll tell me how

1527
01:19:42,040 --> 01:19:43,320
Speaker 3: I goes. Though you're gonna go in that bus?

1528
01:19:43,439 --> 01:19:45,759
Speaker 2: Huh yeah, you know what I've actually thought to myself.

1529
01:19:46,560 --> 01:19:49,479
Speaker 2: It is something that I will want to check out
