0:00:17.880 --> 0:00:20.120
<v Speaker 2>who wants to show up and work? And even if

0:00:20.120 --> 0:00:23.000
<v Speaker 2>you show up for work, you still want to watch

0:00:23.000 --> 0:00:26.479
<v Speaker 2>college bounsketball. We'll talk to Jay Billis a little later

0:00:26.520 --> 0:00:29.840

<v Speaker 2>all of that forthcoming Team USA over the Dominican and

0:01:21.400 --> 0:01:24.720
<v Speaker 2>Republic last night to advance to the finals coming up

0:01:24.760 --> 0:01:28.360
<v Speaker 2>on Tuesday night. All righty, A lot of things to

0:01:28.440 --> 0:01:30.720
<v Speaker 2>talk about with the tournament. I don't know if too

0:01:30.720 --> 0:01:35.279
<v Speaker 2>many people or alumni are upset if their school didn't

0:01:35.280 --> 0:01:41.840
<v Speaker 2>make it. Now you could say Oklahoma or Auburn, Stanford, like,

0:01:41.920 --> 0:01:43.560
<v Speaker 2>you start to look at some of these schools and

0:01:43.600 --> 0:01:45.400
<v Speaker 2>you say, well are we going to get in? If

0:01:45.440 --> 0:01:48.640
<v Speaker 2>we get in, where are we going to be? Saint

0:01:48.760 --> 0:01:52.240
<v Speaker 2>John's a five seed, And in fact, Rick Bettino said, yeah,

0:01:52.240 --> 0:01:54.680
<v Speaker 2>it kind of figured. You know, we did beat Connecticut,

0:01:54.920 --> 0:01:58.200
<v Speaker 2>we blew out Connecticut, but we had these other losses.

0:01:58.560 --> 0:02:02.160
<v Speaker 2>Here's something that you're might not be aware of. These

0:02:02.200 --> 0:02:05.960
<v Speaker 2>are the Power four teams that didn't make a bowl game.

0:02:06.640 --> 0:02:10.799
<v Speaker 2>They're men's or women's basketball teams did not make the

0:02:10.919 --> 0:02:15.840
<v Speaker 2>NCAA tournament. There's one, two, three, four or five. There's

0:02:15.919 --> 0:02:19.080
<v Speaker 2>six schools you didn't make a bowl game, which is

0:02:19.160 --> 0:02:22.160
<v Speaker 2>really hard to do. Your football team didn't make a

0:02:22.160 --> 0:02:26.480
<v Speaker 2>bowl game, and your men's and women's basketball teams didn't

0:02:26.480 --> 0:02:34.000
<v Speaker 2>make the tournament. Auburn, Boston College, Florida State, Mississippi State, Rutgers,

0:02:34.639 --> 0:02:50.960
<v Speaker 2>and Stanford. So you're going zero for three your football team,

0:02:51.080 --> 0:02:53.799
<v Speaker 2>your men's and women's basketball teams. You didn't play in

0:02:53.840 --> 0:02:56.280
<v Speaker 2>a bowl game and didn't make the tournament. And I

0:02:56.280 --> 0:02:59.760
<v Speaker 2>guess I was a little surprised with Stanford because they're

0:02:59.800 --> 0:03:03.040
<v Speaker 2>the only team with twenty or more wins overall and

0:03:03.440 --> 0:03:07.560
<v Speaker 2>five or more wins against Quad one opponents. But Stanford

0:03:07.639 --> 0:03:10.760
<v Speaker 2>did not make the tournament. A lot of talk about

0:03:10.760 --> 0:03:13.480
<v Speaker 2>Miami of Ohio and they're going to have a home game.

0:03:13.600 --> 0:03:15.640
<v Speaker 2>It's going to be in Dayton, the play in game,

0:03:16.280 --> 0:03:18.799
<v Speaker 2>and we'll talk to Bruce Pearl. I don't know where

0:03:18.800 --> 0:03:21.600
<v Speaker 2>he is now with Miami Ohio if he's all in

0:03:21.680 --> 0:03:25.600
<v Speaker 2>on them. They did make the tournament, and his school, Auburn,

0:03:25.680 --> 0:03:28.080
<v Speaker 2>his last school where his son took over for him.

0:03:28.440 --> 0:03:31.600
<v Speaker 2>Auburn did not make it, but they were like seventeen

0:03:31.639 --> 0:03:36.640
<v Speaker 2>and sixteen, and I know, tough schedule, but I don't

0:03:36.680 --> 0:03:38.480
<v Speaker 2>think too many people are going they should have been

0:03:38.480 --> 0:03:41.360
<v Speaker 2>making the tournament there, but we'll talk to Bruce and

0:03:42.360 --> 0:03:46.720
<v Speaker 2>Auburn does not make the tournament. The current longest active

0:03:46.760 --> 0:03:50.960
<v Speaker 2>streaks playing in the NCAA Tournament, I mean, Michigan State

0:03:51.040 --> 0:03:55.680
<v Speaker 2>has been there twenty eight consecutive years, Gonzaga twenty seven,

0:03:56.280 --> 0:03:59.320
<v Speaker 2>and then it dips down to Purdue at eleven, Houston,

0:03:59.440 --> 0:04:04.080
<v Speaker 2>Tennessee eight, Kansas at seven. All right, see what's poll

0:04:04.200 --> 0:04:05.880
<v Speaker 2>question for the first hour of the program.

0:04:06.040 --> 0:04:08.840
<v Speaker 3>Well, should we start with Bruce Pearl? Oh, that's a

0:04:08.840 --> 0:04:15.120
<v Speaker 3>hot topic, Okay, Bruce Pearl is more upset about dot.

0:04:16.880 --> 0:04:19.600
<v Speaker 2>I don't think he's upset about Miami, Ohio. I think

0:04:19.640 --> 0:04:22.960
<v Speaker 2>he's upset that Auburn didn't get in and coached by

0:04:22.960 --> 0:04:23.400
<v Speaker 2>his son.

0:04:23.920 --> 0:04:26.120
<v Speaker 3>Correct, Yeah, I'm wondering if he's more upset that Auburn

0:04:26.120 --> 0:04:27.560
<v Speaker 3>didn't get in or his son didn't get in.

0:04:28.040 --> 0:04:30.800
<v Speaker 2>Oh I would say that his son didn't get in. Yeah,

0:04:31.040 --> 0:04:34.599
<v Speaker 2>I don't think so, right, Yeah, yeah, Now I don't.

0:04:34.760 --> 0:04:37.159
<v Speaker 2>I think he's still paid by Auburn. I think he's

0:04:37.200 --> 0:04:39.880
<v Speaker 2>on their payroll. I saw a story. I don't know

0:04:39.920 --> 0:04:43.120
<v Speaker 2>if CBS like how often should you say that or

0:04:43.160 --> 0:04:46.040
<v Speaker 2>should they have said that? Leading up to the tournament

0:04:46.839 --> 0:04:50.599
<v Speaker 2>just because whatever he is saying. Now, Jay Billis is

0:04:50.600 --> 0:04:52.359
<v Speaker 2>going to join us. And I know everybody says that

0:04:52.440 --> 0:04:55.440
<v Speaker 2>he is pro Duke. He went to Duke. He probably

0:04:55.480 --> 0:04:59.080
<v Speaker 2>tries his best to be objective. Bruce Pearl's not being objective.

0:04:59.560 --> 0:05:03.120
<v Speaker 2>Bruce is basically saying, Hey, I coached at Auburn, my

0:05:03.160 --> 0:05:06.640
<v Speaker 2>son coaches at Auburn. We play in the SEC, and

0:05:06.680 --> 0:05:09.760
<v Speaker 2>if Miami Ohio played in the SEC, they wouldn't have,

0:05:09.960 --> 0:05:13.080
<v Speaker 2>you know, seventeen wins like Auburn. And okay, it's a

0:05:13.120 --> 0:05:17.120
<v Speaker 2>fair point, but they don't play in the SEC. Not

0:05:17.240 --> 0:05:20.240
<v Speaker 2>everybody can play in the SEC. And I can't use

0:05:20.279 --> 0:05:23.080
<v Speaker 2>that as you know, hey you didn't play in the SEC.

0:05:24.320 --> 0:05:26.359
<v Speaker 2>Now if you want to do that for football, we

0:05:26.440 --> 0:05:30.360
<v Speaker 2>can do it. Although has the SEC become a basketball conference.

0:05:31.640 --> 0:05:32.320
<v Speaker 4>On a Monday?

0:05:32.480 --> 0:05:35.960
<v Speaker 2>I know, I know, I know I had somebody with

0:05:36.000 --> 0:05:38.720
<v Speaker 2>the NC DOUBLEA bringing that up, kind of having fun

0:05:38.839 --> 0:05:44.720
<v Speaker 2>with it, and I go, maybe maybe Yeaeston, I think.

0:05:46.120 --> 0:05:49.200
<v Speaker 3>Everybody has a bias when they're up there. You know,

0:05:50.080 --> 0:05:54.240
<v Speaker 3>everybody is a little steered towards their alma mater, you know,

0:05:54.320 --> 0:05:57.520
<v Speaker 3>I mean, is Jay wright On still on Villanova's payroll?

0:05:58.040 --> 0:05:58.960
<v Speaker 2>I'm pretty sure he is.

0:05:59.800 --> 0:06:02.599
<v Speaker 3>He's not up there advocating for Villanova every day, and

0:06:02.640 --> 0:06:04.680
<v Speaker 3>he's not up there saying like, ah, my son needs

0:06:04.720 --> 0:06:06.880
<v Speaker 3>to be in this tournament. He's not doing any of that,

0:06:06.920 --> 0:06:08.600
<v Speaker 3>but he's still getting paid by Villanova.

0:06:10.000 --> 0:06:10.200
<v Speaker 4>You know.

0:06:10.279 --> 0:06:12.080
<v Speaker 3>So if we're going to be upset about people having

0:06:12.080 --> 0:06:14.880
<v Speaker 3>a bias, then nobody's going to be allowed to be

0:06:14.960 --> 0:06:18.120
<v Speaker 3>up there. Really, but just tell me that you're you're

0:06:18.160 --> 0:06:21.760
<v Speaker 3>being paid by the school. If you're being paid by Auburn,

0:06:22.040 --> 0:06:24.839
<v Speaker 3>then I think just let us know I got it.

0:06:25.160 --> 0:06:27.839
<v Speaker 2>I think you got to have full transparency with something

0:06:27.920 --> 0:06:31.440
<v Speaker 2>like that. I mean, Jay Billis doesn't hide that he

0:06:31.480 --> 0:06:34.520
<v Speaker 2>went to Duke and I know there. You know, there

0:06:34.520 --> 0:06:38.000
<v Speaker 2>are other broadcasters. Jim Jackson doesn't hide that he went

0:06:38.040 --> 0:06:41.920
<v Speaker 2>to Ohio State. But I mean, it's difficult to do.

0:06:42.120 --> 0:06:44.400
<v Speaker 2>I did this a long long time ago. But I

0:06:44.480 --> 0:06:47.520
<v Speaker 2>did this because I have to have neutrality here. I

0:06:47.560 --> 0:06:49.839
<v Speaker 2>have to be unbiased or the best that I can

0:06:49.960 --> 0:06:53.800
<v Speaker 2>possibly be. Therefore, I'm not rooting for the Cincinnati Reds

0:06:53.880 --> 0:06:56.640
<v Speaker 2>or Cincinnati Bengals. I'm rooting for the best story. But

0:06:56.720 --> 0:07:00.200
<v Speaker 2>it's different. You know, Bruce Pearl's not rooting for the

0:07:00.200 --> 0:07:04.479
<v Speaker 2>best stories rooting for his son and Auburn. I'm just

0:07:04.600 --> 0:07:07.560
<v Speaker 2>rooting for Hey, if Miami Ohio gets in and actually

0:07:07.640 --> 0:07:11.600
<v Speaker 2>wins a game, or Auburn had got in and played

0:07:11.640 --> 0:07:14.800
<v Speaker 2>Miami Ohio, which would have been wonderful. Yeah, Paulie, So.

0:07:14.840 --> 0:07:18.640
<v Speaker 5>Bruce Pearl criticized Miami Ohio last year last week while

0:07:18.680 --> 0:07:21.200
<v Speaker 5>they were still undefeated, and they got a lot of headlines. Yeah,

0:07:21.240 --> 0:07:23.680
<v Speaker 5>but Miami of Ohio's loss in the first run of

0:07:23.680 --> 0:07:26.000
<v Speaker 5>the conference almost bore out what he said.

0:07:27.200 --> 0:07:29.600
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I don't know how good Miami Ohio is, but

0:07:29.640 --> 0:07:34.119
<v Speaker 2>they're undefeated. Should they play a better non conference? Well,

0:07:34.280 --> 0:07:36.960
<v Speaker 2>I don't know how many schools wanted to play them.

0:07:37.080 --> 0:07:38.880
<v Speaker 2>Or it's a home and home and you know that's

0:07:38.920 --> 0:07:42.320
<v Speaker 2>tricky there. But you know, you're playing thirty one games.

0:07:42.640 --> 0:07:44.760
<v Speaker 2>You got to have a couple of quad one games

0:07:44.800 --> 0:07:47.920
<v Speaker 2>there or win a couple of those games. By the way,

0:07:48.040 --> 0:07:50.840
<v Speaker 2>does everybody know what quad one means? In quad two

0:07:50.960 --> 0:07:54.920
<v Speaker 2>and quad three and quado because this is the week

0:07:54.960 --> 0:07:57.200
<v Speaker 2>that you act like you know what you're talking about.

0:07:57.320 --> 0:08:00.280
<v Speaker 2>Filling out your brackets here, Yes, Paulie.

0:08:00.000 --> 0:08:02.720
<v Speaker 5>Okay, Quadrant one, as the old school people call it,

0:08:02.800 --> 0:08:06.400
<v Speaker 5>quad one is the highest quality of wins and losses

0:08:06.640 --> 0:08:10.200
<v Speaker 5>used by the selection committee to evaluate tournament resumes based

0:08:10.200 --> 0:08:13.760
<v Speaker 5>on net rankings. Another thing we know little about net ranking.

0:08:14.400 --> 0:08:16.720
<v Speaker 2>So Saint John's gets a five seed after winning the

0:08:16.720 --> 0:08:20.760
<v Speaker 2>Big East over Yukon. Saint John's is fifteenth in the

0:08:20.800 --> 0:08:24.000
<v Speaker 2>net rankings and just won the Big East regular season

0:08:24.080 --> 0:08:27.200
<v Speaker 2>and tournament title, and they've won their last six The

0:08:27.400 --> 0:08:31.120
<v Speaker 2>part the last part there. I always think that your

0:08:31.200 --> 0:08:34.280
<v Speaker 2>seeding is based on what you've done in the last month,

0:08:34.920 --> 0:08:38.200
<v Speaker 2>and if I and if I incorporate that, I'm surprised

0:08:38.200 --> 0:08:42.560
<v Speaker 2>Saint John's ended up with a five seed because you

0:08:42.640 --> 0:08:45.120
<v Speaker 2>end up winning the regular season and the postseason in

0:08:45.160 --> 0:08:47.439
<v Speaker 2>the Big East and you've won six in a row.

0:08:47.480 --> 0:08:51.080
<v Speaker 2>Here is Saint John's head coach Rick Patino, Well, I

0:08:51.080 --> 0:08:51.760
<v Speaker 2>thought we'd.

0:08:51.600 --> 0:08:52.319
<v Speaker 4>Be a fifth seed.

0:08:52.480 --> 0:08:54.360
<v Speaker 6>A couple of guys in my set thought it was

0:08:54.400 --> 0:08:57.040
<v Speaker 6>possible to be a four seed. But they don't take

0:08:57.040 --> 0:08:59.080
<v Speaker 6>into account how you're playing at the end of the year.

0:09:00.120 --> 0:09:04.000
<v Speaker 6>Days like a ten years ago, it counted the last

0:09:04.040 --> 0:09:06.079
<v Speaker 6>ten games of the season is what they really looked at.

0:09:06.559 --> 0:09:08.840
<v Speaker 6>They don't do that anymore. It's all metrics from the

0:09:08.880 --> 0:09:11.520
<v Speaker 6>first game to the last game. The last game doesn't

0:09:11.360 --> 0:09:14.480
<v Speaker 6>mean any more than the first first game you play

0:09:14.520 --> 0:09:17.880
<v Speaker 6>in because the Big East was really weak from a

0:09:17.920 --> 0:09:21.280
<v Speaker 6>net standpoint, Like we lost to Providence, who I think

0:09:21.320 --> 0:09:24.200
<v Speaker 6>is a damn good basketball team. They were a Quad

0:09:24.240 --> 0:09:26.480
<v Speaker 6>three loss for us, So we got to get the

0:09:26.480 --> 0:09:27.280
<v Speaker 6>Big East stronger.

0:09:27.840 --> 0:09:29.319
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I want to know what you've done in the

0:09:29.400 --> 0:09:31.840
<v Speaker 2>last month of the season. If we want you playing

0:09:31.880 --> 0:09:34.360
<v Speaker 2>your best at the best time of the year, the

0:09:34.360 --> 0:09:36.720
<v Speaker 2>most important time of the year, it should be based

0:09:37.120 --> 0:09:39.959
<v Speaker 2>or at least leaning in favor of what you do

0:09:40.000 --> 0:09:43.679
<v Speaker 2>in the last five weeks of the season. And Saint

0:09:43.720 --> 0:09:47.000
<v Speaker 2>John's beating Connecticut the way they did, I thought that

0:09:47.000 --> 0:09:50.680
<v Speaker 2>they'd be a little bit higher. The other seed, Vandy,

0:09:50.760 --> 0:09:53.720
<v Speaker 2>is a five seed. They have beaten three Quad one

0:09:53.760 --> 0:09:57.960
<v Speaker 2>teams in the past week, Tennessee twice, and then blew

0:09:58.000 --> 0:10:01.040
<v Speaker 2>out number one Florida and they end up with a

0:10:01.120 --> 0:10:04.040
<v Speaker 2>five seed. I was surprised at that as well. But

0:10:04.160 --> 0:10:06.640
<v Speaker 2>for the most part, you know, you're just kind of

0:10:06.840 --> 0:10:10.240
<v Speaker 2>surveying the landscape heres. I always look for who is

0:10:10.280 --> 0:10:13.160
<v Speaker 2>playing close to home. That's what I want to know.

0:10:13.240 --> 0:10:15.720
<v Speaker 2>Gonzaga is going to be in Portland for the first

0:10:15.720 --> 0:10:18.959
<v Speaker 2>two games, you know, just that helps. I go back

0:10:19.040 --> 0:10:23.079
<v Speaker 2>to when Syracuse was playing in Albany, back when they

0:10:23.320 --> 0:10:25.760
<v Speaker 2>you know, had Carmelo and they won the national title.

0:10:26.360 --> 0:10:29.720
<v Speaker 2>Like those kind of things, you know, those are sneaky

0:10:29.840 --> 0:10:32.880
<v Speaker 2>where you go, wait a minute, here at old home

0:10:32.960 --> 0:10:35.240
<v Speaker 2>court advantage. Kind of yes, Marvin.

0:10:35.400 --> 0:10:37.920
<v Speaker 7>The worst thing ever. If I was Michigan State or

0:10:37.960 --> 0:10:40.360
<v Speaker 7>Iowa stay in twenty fourteen, I would have been on fire.

0:10:40.600 --> 0:10:42.840
<v Speaker 7>Yukon was the seventh seed in the East Region. The

0:10:43.040 --> 0:10:46.959
<v Speaker 7>East Regional finals were at the Garden. So wait, it's

0:10:47.000 --> 0:10:49.920
<v Speaker 7>just a Metro North train ride from Connecticut to New

0:10:49.960 --> 0:10:52.080
<v Speaker 7>York and where the seven seed. I would have been furious.

0:10:52.280 --> 0:10:54.120
<v Speaker 2>All right, we'll get phone calls coming up best and

0:10:54.200 --> 0:10:56.400
<v Speaker 2>worst to the weekend. Once you saw that you liked,

0:10:56.440 --> 0:11:00.480
<v Speaker 2>you didn't like any other poll questions. We that's pretty pacific.

0:11:00.760 --> 0:11:03.600
<v Speaker 2>The Bruce Pearl pull question, it really works an hour one.

0:11:03.800 --> 0:11:06.839
<v Speaker 3>I'll tell you that this one's maybe a little more

0:11:06.920 --> 0:11:10.400
<v Speaker 3>has a little more, some more legs. No major snubs

0:11:10.440 --> 0:11:13.440
<v Speaker 3>in the NCAA Tournament this year is a good thing

0:11:13.640 --> 0:11:14.320
<v Speaker 3>or bad thing.

0:11:16.240 --> 0:11:18.280
<v Speaker 2>I would say a bad thing because I kind of

0:11:18.360 --> 0:11:20.920
<v Speaker 2>like when somebody's complaining a little bit. Although it's hard

0:11:20.920 --> 0:11:25.040
<v Speaker 2>to complain when they're sixty eight teams, but you kind

0:11:25.040 --> 0:11:28.000
<v Speaker 2>of like somebody who you know got jobbed a little.

0:11:28.040 --> 0:11:31.000
<v Speaker 2>I mean, Stanford got jobbed in my opinion, if I'm

0:11:31.040 --> 0:11:34.480
<v Speaker 2>looking at resumes here and I was, you know, somebody

0:11:34.480 --> 0:11:37.360
<v Speaker 2>who used to work on the committee said, if you

0:11:37.800 --> 0:11:41.440
<v Speaker 2>can do a blind taste test, like that's the true

0:11:41.480 --> 0:11:44.560
<v Speaker 2>example of that team should be in and that team

0:11:44.600 --> 0:11:49.080
<v Speaker 2>should not. Instead we attach the head coach of the

0:11:49.120 --> 0:11:53.800
<v Speaker 2>school itself, the history of that basketball program. And sometimes

0:11:53.840 --> 0:11:56.439
<v Speaker 2>it's not fair to those schools who don't get in.

0:11:56.760 --> 0:11:58.920
<v Speaker 2>But when you get to sixty eight, it's kind of

0:11:58.920 --> 0:12:03.480
<v Speaker 2>hard to complain. But I do like somebody who you

0:12:03.520 --> 0:12:06.040
<v Speaker 2>want to say, hey, pipe down over there, like Bruce

0:12:06.080 --> 0:12:11.280
<v Speaker 2>Pearl and Auburn, pipe down over there, Bruce yes Ton.

0:12:12.360 --> 0:12:14.520
<v Speaker 8>I was just checking the University of Missouri, which is

0:12:14.520 --> 0:12:16.679
<v Speaker 8>in Columbia that's not too far from Saint Louis. They

0:12:16.720 --> 0:12:19.080
<v Speaker 8>get to play Saint Louis, which is kind of weak

0:12:19.080 --> 0:12:19.920
<v Speaker 8>against Miami.

0:12:20.600 --> 0:12:25.480
<v Speaker 2>Florida plays in Tampa. Missouri will play Friday in Saint Louis,

0:12:25.880 --> 0:12:29.560
<v Speaker 2>and uh, that feels like a little bit of an advantage,

0:12:29.559 --> 0:12:29.959
<v Speaker 2>a little bit.

0:12:30.000 --> 0:12:34.320
<v Speaker 3>Saint Louis actually has like an incredible draw for local fans.

0:12:34.400 --> 0:12:35.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, they have.

0:12:35.080 --> 0:12:41.640
<v Speaker 3>Like uh like Iowa State, Purdue, Uh, Missouri, I forget

0:12:41.679 --> 0:12:43.600
<v Speaker 3>who else. There's a couple of teams there where it's like, dang,

0:12:43.640 --> 0:12:45.160
<v Speaker 3>like this is gonna be awesome. That's going to be

0:12:45.360 --> 0:12:47.760
<v Speaker 3>all of these places. They all travel really well and

0:12:47.800 --> 0:12:51.720
<v Speaker 3>they don't have to travel all that far. Uh Kentucky

0:12:51.760 --> 0:12:52.720
<v Speaker 3>I think is in that region.

0:12:52.800 --> 0:12:56.720
<v Speaker 2>Entucky's in there. Yeah, speaking of Kentucky, John Caliperi, Rick

0:12:56.760 --> 0:13:01.679
<v Speaker 2>Patino obviously at different schools, but watching Arkansas with Calo

0:13:01.720 --> 0:13:05.720
<v Speaker 2>Perry and that's a fun team. That's one of those

0:13:05.760 --> 0:13:10.840
<v Speaker 2>where you kind of keep watching and then you realize

0:13:11.000 --> 0:13:14.880
<v Speaker 2>they're a really good team and they might have the

0:13:14.920 --> 0:13:19.600
<v Speaker 2>second best player in this tournament. Marvin your thoughts.

0:13:20.280 --> 0:13:22.520
<v Speaker 7>There's Acums one of those guys where it's like I

0:13:22.600 --> 0:13:25.079
<v Speaker 7>wish I would have watched them all season long because

0:13:25.120 --> 0:13:27.280
<v Speaker 7>now I'm looking at him like, man, maybe I should

0:13:27.280 --> 0:13:30.440
<v Speaker 7>have paid attention to Arkansas basketball because he wasn't he

0:13:30.520 --> 0:13:33.280
<v Speaker 7>was a five star recruit now, but he wasn't Cambuser

0:13:33.559 --> 0:13:37.319
<v Speaker 7>or Debanza from BYU. But cal part said he's the

0:13:37.320 --> 0:13:38.959
<v Speaker 7>best point guard he's ever coached. I was like, dang,

0:13:39.080 --> 0:13:40.000
<v Speaker 7>you had Derrick Rose.

0:13:40.040 --> 0:13:40.319
<v Speaker 2>I know.

0:13:40.520 --> 0:13:43.319
<v Speaker 7>I said, So that's saying a lot for this kid.

0:13:43.640 --> 0:13:46.839
<v Speaker 2>And it was a kind of a slow burn because

0:13:46.880 --> 0:13:50.240
<v Speaker 2>we were focusing on some of these other freshmen and

0:13:50.440 --> 0:13:53.199
<v Speaker 2>all of a sudden, he's one of those guys where

0:13:53.240 --> 0:13:55.720
<v Speaker 2>you're watching a game to watch somebody else play and

0:13:55.760 --> 0:13:59.120
<v Speaker 2>then you go, oh my god, like this kid, he

0:13:59.320 --> 0:13:59.959
<v Speaker 2>is great.

0:14:00.679 --> 0:14:03.000
<v Speaker 5>Yes, I know there's a lot of great freshmen, but

0:14:03.080 --> 0:14:04.760
<v Speaker 5>I think there's a lot of fifth year seniors on

0:14:04.880 --> 0:14:09.080
<v Speaker 5>Saint John's. Those guys look like grown men. It's an

0:14:09.080 --> 0:14:09.800
<v Speaker 5>all beard team.

0:14:09.880 --> 0:14:13.600
<v Speaker 2>There are certain teams where you go how old are you?

0:14:14.640 --> 0:14:18.280
<v Speaker 2>And it's really commonplace. I mean Purdue, how long have

0:14:18.360 --> 0:14:22.440
<v Speaker 2>they been there? Just feels like, you know, you're in

0:14:22.480 --> 0:14:30.240
<v Speaker 2>your seventh year. Grown men out there. But yeah, watching

0:14:30.280 --> 0:14:31.800
<v Speaker 2>some of these teams when they come out on the

0:14:31.840 --> 0:14:33.600
<v Speaker 2>floor and I go, you know, and then they'll say,

0:14:33.960 --> 0:14:37.760
<v Speaker 2>you know, Jimmy Lipper started here, and then he transferred here,

0:14:37.840 --> 0:14:40.480
<v Speaker 2>and then he spent a year here and then this,

0:14:40.760 --> 0:14:43.800
<v Speaker 2>so he's got four schools in the last four years.

0:14:45.080 --> 0:14:48.800
<v Speaker 2>We'll talk to Billis about this. Also nil with basketball

0:14:48.840 --> 0:14:53.680
<v Speaker 2>as opposed to football, NIL and football gave us Indiana football.

0:14:55.360 --> 0:14:58.960
<v Speaker 2>Can we get some big surprise in college basketball anymore?

0:14:59.120 --> 0:15:01.480
<v Speaker 2>There's only a certain amount of money that they're spending,

0:15:01.720 --> 0:15:04.720
<v Speaker 2>might be ten to fifteen million dollars, where football they're

0:15:04.720 --> 0:15:09.160
<v Speaker 2>spending forty million dollars, if not more. But trying to

0:15:09.200 --> 0:15:12.120
<v Speaker 2>get that feel good story or that story that you

0:15:12.160 --> 0:15:16.120
<v Speaker 2>didn't expect. We get that in the beginning of the tournament,

0:15:16.160 --> 0:15:20.040
<v Speaker 2>but it feels like it's going to be the usual suspects.

0:15:20.480 --> 0:15:24.680
<v Speaker 2>You got. Let me see, I'm trying to think you

0:15:24.760 --> 0:15:29.400
<v Speaker 2>got Michigan, you got Duke. Trying to get my odds here.

0:15:29.920 --> 0:15:32.680
<v Speaker 2>I thought I had it here somewhere. I need a

0:15:32.720 --> 0:15:35.120
<v Speaker 2>secretary here to help me. Oh here there, yeah there,

0:15:35.200 --> 0:15:40.040
<v Speaker 2>I got them right here. They are there. So Duke, Michigan, Arizona, Florida, Houston,

0:15:40.240 --> 0:15:44.840
<v Speaker 2>Iowa State, Illinois, Yukon. So aside from Iowa State and Illinois,

0:15:45.480 --> 0:15:49.640
<v Speaker 2>these are pretty much the blue bloods. Illinois has been

0:15:49.640 --> 0:15:53.360
<v Speaker 2>a good story and Iowa State all season long, and

0:15:53.480 --> 0:15:56.440
<v Speaker 2>Yukon in there. But the best odds to win Duke

0:15:56.880 --> 0:16:02.160
<v Speaker 2>plus three hundred, followed by Michigan. Then my Arizona Wildcats, Florida,

0:16:02.360 --> 0:16:06.440
<v Speaker 2>the defending national champs, then it goes to Houston, Iowa, State, Illinois,

0:16:06.920 --> 0:16:09.960
<v Speaker 2>and Connecticut. We'll get to your phone calls coming up

0:16:10.080 --> 0:16:14.000

<v Speaker 2>you Sean Penn was going to win. I just didn't

<v Speaker 2>He's Bruce Pearl, Turner and CBS Sports college basketball analysts,

0:17:29.440 --> 0:17:32.600
<v Speaker 2>three time National Coach of the Year. And in case

0:17:32.640 --> 0:17:36.520
<v Speaker 2>you didn't know, former Auburn head coach Bruce Pearl, what's

0:17:36.560 --> 0:17:37.960
<v Speaker 2>bothering you today? Coach?

0:17:39.080 --> 0:17:41.399
<v Speaker 4>No, life's good, Dan's great to see you.

0:17:42.600 --> 0:17:45.399
<v Speaker 10>My heartbreaks or my son, but you know what, you

0:17:45.480 --> 0:17:47.240
<v Speaker 10>got a chance to win your way in or lose

0:17:47.280 --> 0:17:50.240
<v Speaker 10>your way out, and Auburn probably was just one more

0:17:50.280 --> 0:17:51.719
<v Speaker 10>win away from dancing.

0:17:53.800 --> 0:17:57.520
<v Speaker 2>How would you rate your week or the last ten

0:17:57.600 --> 0:18:05.560
<v Speaker 2>days or two weeks, let's say, as an analyst.

0:18:02.840 --> 0:18:03.680
<v Speaker 4>That's a great question.

0:18:03.800 --> 0:18:06.440
<v Speaker 10>Did I was a basketball coach head coach for thirty

0:18:06.520 --> 0:18:11.800
<v Speaker 10>years and been in basketball for forty eight years, and

0:18:11.880 --> 0:18:15.040
<v Speaker 10>so this analyst thing and being in the media's brand new.

0:18:15.200 --> 0:18:17.480
<v Speaker 10>So I am a rookie at that, even though I'm

0:18:17.480 --> 0:18:21.920
<v Speaker 10>sixty six years old now. And sometimes you don't know

0:18:22.200 --> 0:18:23.920
<v Speaker 10>how you're doing. I mean, when I used to play,

0:18:24.040 --> 0:18:26.960
<v Speaker 10>or I used to coach, there was a scoreboard. I

0:18:26.960 --> 0:18:28.760
<v Speaker 10>get off and I'm like, I don't know. I don't

0:18:28.800 --> 0:18:31.560
<v Speaker 10>know how I did. I imagine some people think I'm entertaining.

0:18:31.600 --> 0:18:33.919
<v Speaker 10>I would imagine something of people think I'm an idiot.

0:18:35.480 --> 0:18:36.920
<v Speaker 10>But you never know whether you're winning and losing.

0:18:37.440 --> 0:18:40.400
<v Speaker 2>But does somebody tell you, I mean, you got headlines.

0:18:41.400 --> 0:18:43.040
<v Speaker 2>I don't know if you feel like that's part of

0:18:43.040 --> 0:18:43.600
<v Speaker 2>your job.

0:18:45.440 --> 0:18:46.800
<v Speaker 4>No, I don't think it's part of my job.

0:18:46.840 --> 0:18:48.439
<v Speaker 10>I think my job is to tell you what I

0:18:48.480 --> 0:18:51.960
<v Speaker 10>think based on my years of experience, and I've never,

0:18:52.080 --> 0:18:54.639
<v Speaker 10>as you know, Dad, I've never been politically correct, so

0:18:54.720 --> 0:18:57.639
<v Speaker 10>I really don't worry about that stuff. And what I

0:18:57.720 --> 0:19:00.239
<v Speaker 10>did learn, though, is sometimes when you do you give

0:19:00.280 --> 0:19:04.520
<v Speaker 10>your opinion about something you know, you can be it

0:19:04.520 --> 0:19:06.080
<v Speaker 10>can be taken out of context, or you can be

0:19:06.080 --> 0:19:08.199
<v Speaker 10>taking a task. And I really don't mind either one

0:19:08.240 --> 0:19:08.480
<v Speaker 10>of them.

0:19:08.880 --> 0:19:11.359
<v Speaker 4>Right now, I'm the ugly stepmother.

0:19:11.280 --> 0:19:13.639
<v Speaker 10>Because I asked the question, are we looking for the

0:19:13.640 --> 0:19:16.720
<v Speaker 10>thirty seven best teams or the thirty seven most deserving teams?

0:19:16.720 --> 0:19:18.760
<v Speaker 10>When it came to a large and so that because

0:19:18.880 --> 0:19:20.920
<v Speaker 10>we became enemy number one again.

0:19:21.280 --> 0:19:24.960
<v Speaker 2>Okay, how much of the story of Miami Ohio help

0:19:25.040 --> 0:19:26.240
<v Speaker 2>them get into the tournament.

0:19:27.000 --> 0:19:30.560
<v Speaker 10>I'd say about ninety five percent. And that's time. There

0:19:30.640 --> 0:19:32.760
<v Speaker 10>is a human element that exists in that room, and

0:19:32.800 --> 0:19:35.280
<v Speaker 10>it should exist. You don't just go by the metrics.

0:19:35.280 --> 0:19:37.680
<v Speaker 10>You just don't come by the numbers of math. You

0:19:37.720 --> 0:19:39.280
<v Speaker 10>gotta have a little bit of a field. And so

0:19:39.440 --> 0:19:42.280
<v Speaker 10>as said, I said this from the very beginning, I

0:19:42.320 --> 0:19:44.479
<v Speaker 10>would put them in the field. I would put them

0:19:44.480 --> 0:19:46.159
<v Speaker 10>in the field. If you want to tell me, do

0:19:46.240 --> 0:19:49.080
<v Speaker 10>they qualify based on these metrics? The answer is absolutely not.

0:19:49.640 --> 0:19:52.120
<v Speaker 10>And it's interesting Dan. Last night I asked the when

0:19:52.160 --> 0:19:55.960
<v Speaker 10>I was on CBS, I asked Chairman Gill, I said, okay,

0:19:56.080 --> 0:19:59.960
<v Speaker 10>last two in first to out, what were the metric

0:20:00.119 --> 0:20:02.280
<v Speaker 10>except you know it was sort of the defining factor

0:20:02.359 --> 0:20:05.160
<v Speaker 10>for you. You know that that's a fair question, right, yeah,

0:20:05.200 --> 0:20:09.560
<v Speaker 10>And he said, he said, quality wins. Quality wins was

0:20:09.560 --> 0:20:12.439
<v Speaker 10>he said, I said, And I did not follow up

0:20:12.480 --> 0:20:14.600
<v Speaker 10>out of respects. And you know, these are things we

0:20:14.600 --> 0:20:17.280
<v Speaker 10>can talk about the next day. Mayama, Ohio doesn't have.

0:20:17.359 --> 0:20:18.320
<v Speaker 4>A quality win.

0:20:18.920 --> 0:20:21.440
<v Speaker 10>Oklahoma and Auburn, who are the last teams left out,

0:20:22.080 --> 0:20:25.359
<v Speaker 10>have a half a dozen quality wins each and so

0:20:26.400 --> 0:20:28.639
<v Speaker 10>it's I think it's sort of just added to the

0:20:29.960 --> 0:20:32.560
<v Speaker 10>drama a little bit. But look, I'm happy they're in.

0:20:33.080 --> 0:20:37.080
<v Speaker 10>They deserve to be in the field. It's what the Cinderellas.

0:20:36.320 --> 0:20:37.040
<v Speaker 4>Are all about.

0:20:37.480 --> 0:20:39.360
<v Speaker 10>And so I think we need a sort of adjust

0:20:39.359 --> 0:20:42.960
<v Speaker 10>the metrics so we get more of these mid major

0:20:43.000 --> 0:20:43.840
<v Speaker 10>teams in a tournament.

0:20:43.880 --> 0:20:45.280
<v Speaker 4>But the way it's set up right now, you've got

0:20:45.280 --> 0:20:45.959
<v Speaker 4>to make an exception.

0:20:46.520 --> 0:20:48.960
<v Speaker 2>I thought Stanford had a better argument than Oklahoma and

0:20:49.040 --> 0:20:52.920
<v Speaker 2>Auburn coach tell me why, well would they have five

0:20:53.280 --> 0:20:57.760
<v Speaker 2>quad one victories? They had twenty plus wins. I mean,

0:20:58.280 --> 0:21:01.600
<v Speaker 2>just start there and feel like a pretty good resume.

0:21:03.000 --> 0:21:04.800
<v Speaker 10>I agree, No, it was a good resime and one

0:21:04.800 --> 0:21:06.199
<v Speaker 10>of these I've said all along, and I don't think

0:21:06.240 --> 0:21:07.320
<v Speaker 10>anybody got screwed here.

0:21:07.400 --> 0:21:09.400
<v Speaker 4>Nobody got screwed. I don't think it was anybody. Oh

0:21:09.400 --> 0:21:10.679
<v Speaker 4>my god, how.

0:21:10.520 --> 0:21:12.280
<v Speaker 10>Did this team get in or not get in? You

0:21:12.280 --> 0:21:15.960
<v Speaker 10>can make an argument Stanford, you can make an argument.

0:21:15.680 --> 0:21:20.400
<v Speaker 4>For They said to me, if VCU didn't win.

0:21:20.400 --> 0:21:23.159
<v Speaker 10>Their tournament, they were going to be out, and I

0:21:23.160 --> 0:21:26.080
<v Speaker 10>would have made an argument for VCU. The argument for

0:21:26.119 --> 0:21:31.399
<v Speaker 10>Auburn was they played seventeen quad one games seventeen. I

0:21:31.480 --> 0:21:34.920
<v Speaker 10>don't know how played one quad two. I mean, it's

0:21:35.040 --> 0:21:38.480
<v Speaker 10>very difficult when you talk about apples and oranges. Auburn

0:21:38.560 --> 0:21:41.600
<v Speaker 10>beat Saint John's, who was the biggest champion. They beat

0:21:41.600 --> 0:21:44.639
<v Speaker 10>Florida at Florida it was the SEC regular season champion.

0:21:44.680 --> 0:21:48.040
<v Speaker 10>They beat Arkansas by twenty who was the SEC tournament champion.

0:21:48.359 --> 0:21:51.199
<v Speaker 10>So when it came to quality wins, I thought that

0:21:50.800 --> 0:21:53.280
<v Speaker 10>that was something that could have pushed them over the top.

0:21:53.600 --> 0:21:55.840
<v Speaker 10>They have the number four straight the schedule. I'm not

0:21:55.880 --> 0:21:58.120
<v Speaker 10>sure where Stanford's was, And a lot of that has

0:21:58.160 --> 0:21:58.920
<v Speaker 10>to do with intense.

0:22:00.280 --> 0:22:02.920
<v Speaker 2>Can you look at Auburn objectively.

0:22:03.840 --> 0:22:05.000
<v Speaker 4>Yes, one hundred percent.

0:22:05.040 --> 0:22:08.440
<v Speaker 10>Can Like, I think it's okay that Auburn and Oklahoma,

0:22:08.480 --> 0:22:09.639
<v Speaker 10>for example, aren't the field.

0:22:10.000 --> 0:22:12.040
<v Speaker 4>I think it's okay they should.

0:22:11.800 --> 0:22:15.080
<v Speaker 10>Have won one more game, and so there's nobody complaining

0:22:15.119 --> 0:22:18.320
<v Speaker 10>about it. But I pride myself on telling you what

0:22:18.359 --> 0:22:20.600
<v Speaker 10>I really think. Was I rooting for my son? Of

0:22:20.640 --> 0:22:23.440
<v Speaker 10>course I was rooting for my son. People say, well,

0:22:23.440 --> 0:22:25.320
<v Speaker 10>you got your son the job. No, I didn't get

0:22:25.320 --> 0:22:27.439
<v Speaker 10>my son the job. My son played for me. My

0:22:27.480 --> 0:22:29.880
<v Speaker 10>son was an assistant for me for eleven years. He's

0:22:29.880 --> 0:22:32.640
<v Speaker 10>the associated coach, he was the defensive coordinator.

0:22:32.880 --> 0:22:35.800
<v Speaker 4>Did I help him? Absolutely? I did? As a dad,

0:22:35.840 --> 0:22:36.680
<v Speaker 4>of course I did.

0:22:37.560 --> 0:22:39.880
<v Speaker 2>But you look at are you paid by Auburn?

0:22:41.520 --> 0:22:46.040
<v Speaker 10>You know what, I'm in an ambassador's position. And not

0:22:46.240 --> 0:22:49.280
<v Speaker 10>many Jewish guys who walk away from thirty million dollars,

0:22:49.560 --> 0:22:52.880
<v Speaker 10>but this one did. And you know who does that.

0:22:53.119 --> 0:22:56.480
<v Speaker 10>My wife was like, honey, why couldn't you just stink

0:22:56.520 --> 0:22:58.760
<v Speaker 10>for a couple of years, let him fire you and

0:22:58.880 --> 0:23:01.200
<v Speaker 10>pay you ten million dollar was to do what you're

0:23:01.240 --> 0:23:01.800
<v Speaker 10>doing now?

0:23:02.119 --> 0:23:04.800
<v Speaker 4>But no, you go ahead and quit. Leave all that

0:23:04.920 --> 0:23:05.560
<v Speaker 4>on the table.

0:23:07.040 --> 0:23:11.560
<v Speaker 10>Yeah no, Dan, I I objectivity for me not an issue.

0:23:12.440 --> 0:23:14.680
<v Speaker 2>Okay, But I don't know if you have to disclose

0:23:14.800 --> 0:23:19.200
<v Speaker 2>that that, Hey, I'm still paid as an ambassador for Auburn.

0:23:20.040 --> 0:23:24.080
<v Speaker 2>If it felt like you were kind of dinging Miami,

0:23:24.160 --> 0:23:27.199
<v Speaker 2>Ohio because Auburn was going to be on the bubble.

0:23:27.359 --> 0:23:30.120
<v Speaker 2>So that's the appearance, okay, that's that's how a lot

0:23:30.119 --> 0:23:33.640
<v Speaker 2>of people look. So the appearance of that the optics

0:23:33.640 --> 0:23:34.320
<v Speaker 2>didn't look good.

0:23:35.240 --> 0:23:38.639
<v Speaker 10>Well, that's that's fair, and it certainly as a former

0:23:38.680 --> 0:23:42.720
<v Speaker 10>Auburn basketball cook, what former coach or former athlete.

0:23:42.760 --> 0:23:46.720
<v Speaker 4>Charles Barkley roots for Auburn. He does. But Charles Barkley's

0:23:46.800 --> 0:23:49.320
<v Speaker 4>always going to keep it real and and.

0:23:49.280 --> 0:23:52.520
<v Speaker 2>But he was paid at Auburn, not after Auburn.

0:23:56.680 --> 0:23:57.280
<v Speaker 4>That's enough.

0:23:57.320 --> 0:24:02.719
<v Speaker 11>Hey, hey, listen, what if if I wasn't able to

0:24:02.800 --> 0:24:07.920
<v Speaker 11>be objective, I wouldn't continue to be an Aubered It's

0:24:07.960 --> 0:24:10.480
<v Speaker 11>it's sort of a uh, it's sort of.

0:24:10.400 --> 0:24:11.439
<v Speaker 4>The best of both worlds.

0:24:12.040 --> 0:24:14.560
<v Speaker 10>I would give that up in a heartbeat if it

0:24:15.119 --> 0:24:17.639
<v Speaker 10>if optics became such an issue that I couldn't be

0:24:17.640 --> 0:24:20.320
<v Speaker 10>an analyst. You know, Jay Wright works worked at Villanova

0:24:20.359 --> 0:24:24.280
<v Speaker 10>for all those years, he still worked there and nobody

0:24:24.359 --> 0:24:27.080
<v Speaker 10>questioned whether not Jay Wright would have been objective?

0:24:27.720 --> 0:24:29.040
<v Speaker 2>Are you retired as a coach?

0:24:30.680 --> 0:24:32.000
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I am.

0:24:32.480 --> 0:24:35.160
<v Speaker 10>I thought about coming. I thought about it. I got

0:24:35.200 --> 0:24:37.639
<v Speaker 10>a few phone calls even this year. But then I

0:24:37.760 --> 0:24:40.480
<v Speaker 10>head Cooks for thirty years and it was enough. We

0:24:40.520 --> 0:24:43.119
<v Speaker 10>had a great run. And I do want to do

0:24:43.160 --> 0:24:45.119
<v Speaker 10>some other things, as you know.

0:24:46.040 --> 0:24:46.680
<v Speaker 4>You know, I'm a.

0:24:46.680 --> 0:24:49.880
<v Speaker 10>Huge advocate for for this country. I want to coach America.

0:24:50.960 --> 0:24:54.840
<v Speaker 10>I'm a being a Jewish American. I work really hard

0:24:54.840 --> 0:24:57.760
<v Speaker 10>to bring Jews and Christians and Muslims together. Abraham is

0:24:57.760 --> 0:24:59.880
<v Speaker 10>a father of all nations. As a coach, I loved

0:24:59.880 --> 0:25:02.680
<v Speaker 10>it bring people together. Religion divides us and separates us.

0:25:03.119 --> 0:25:04.920
<v Speaker 10>And of course I love my country and I also

0:25:05.000 --> 0:25:07.399
<v Speaker 10>live my ancestral home on Israel. So those are the

0:25:07.440 --> 0:25:10.000
<v Speaker 10>areas that I'm working in right now. And I think

0:25:10.000 --> 0:25:13.160
<v Speaker 10>that in many ways I had the success I had

0:25:13.400 --> 0:25:16.760
<v Speaker 10>in to give me this platform I am. I want

0:25:16.840 --> 0:25:20.359
<v Speaker 10>Jewish Americans to be this country's greatest patriots because this

0:25:20.400 --> 0:25:24.000
<v Speaker 10>country saved us from the Holocaust and gave us this opportunity,

0:25:24.280 --> 0:25:26.040
<v Speaker 10>and we hopefully make the most of it.

0:25:26.200 --> 0:25:27.639
<v Speaker 4>That comes with a responsibility.

0:25:28.040 --> 0:25:31.760
<v Speaker 2>Talking to Bruce Pearl, CBS Sports college basketball analyst, former

0:25:31.880 --> 0:25:35.879
<v Speaker 2>Auburn head coach, best pro prospect in the tournament is

0:25:36.080 --> 0:25:37.960
<v Speaker 2>who aj Debantsta.

0:25:38.320 --> 0:25:41.000
<v Speaker 10>I think both on and off the court, Dan, if

0:25:41.000 --> 0:25:45.639
<v Speaker 10>you're going to invest in somebody that is going to

0:25:45.680 --> 0:25:47.000
<v Speaker 10>be your number one pick and you want to build

0:25:47.000 --> 0:25:49.760
<v Speaker 10>your franchise around that, I think the stuff both on

0:25:49.920 --> 0:25:54.040
<v Speaker 10>and off the court, work ethic. Although this year is

0:25:54.160 --> 0:25:58.200
<v Speaker 10>a great draft, it'll be the best freshman in the

0:25:58.280 --> 0:26:01.359
<v Speaker 10>history of the NBA Draft. This year it is it

0:26:01.440 --> 0:26:04.960
<v Speaker 10>is talented top, it's very very deep. I don't think

0:26:05.000 --> 0:26:09.600
<v Speaker 10>you can go wrong. I love uh Uh. I love

0:26:10.320 --> 0:26:12.800
<v Speaker 10>several other players in there. I love Boozer.

0:26:13.359 --> 0:26:17.600
<v Speaker 4>Uh. Peterson is an incredible talent. Caleb Wilson is amazing.

0:26:18.119 --> 0:26:18.479
<v Speaker 8>Uh.

0:26:18.640 --> 0:26:21.680
<v Speaker 4>The point guards a cure, Yeah.

0:26:21.560 --> 0:26:26.000
<v Speaker 10>A cuff is Uh is a great, great story, Kingston Fleming.

0:26:26.520 --> 0:26:29.760
<v Speaker 4>It is absolutely, absolutely loaded. And that's why all these.

0:26:29.720 --> 0:26:32.680
<v Speaker 10>NBA teams are tanking because they want to they want

0:26:32.680 --> 0:26:34.200
<v Speaker 10>to improve their position in the draft.

0:26:34.920 --> 0:26:38.480
<v Speaker 2>When you see Patino still doing it, what do you think?

0:26:39.280 --> 0:26:41.000
<v Speaker 4>Amazing? Amazing?

0:26:41.080 --> 0:26:43.280
<v Speaker 2>How does he have the energy though, Bruce, it feels

0:26:43.359 --> 0:26:44.679
<v Speaker 2>like that's what leaves you first.

0:26:45.240 --> 0:26:49.280
<v Speaker 10>Yeah, I don't know. I mean, everybody ages differently. I

0:26:49.280 --> 0:26:52.360
<v Speaker 10>think it's I think my guess is it's it's it's

0:26:52.400 --> 0:26:55.879
<v Speaker 10>just it's it's his. His family and basketball are his

0:26:56.000 --> 0:26:57.960
<v Speaker 10>two major passionate interests.

0:26:57.960 --> 0:27:00.800
<v Speaker 4>A little bit of horse racing. Dan, he was the

0:27:00.840 --> 0:27:03.680
<v Speaker 4>best I ever went up against. He he knew what.

0:27:03.760 --> 0:27:06.000
<v Speaker 10>I wanted to do and how I wanted to do it.

0:27:06.200 --> 0:27:08.600
<v Speaker 10>He knew how to take it away. He's not getting older,

0:27:08.600 --> 0:27:11.240
<v Speaker 10>He's getting better. Tom Izzo is the same way. I mean,

0:27:11.280 --> 0:27:14.000
<v Speaker 10>Tom Isou is getting better. If it's it's hard to

0:27:14.040 --> 0:27:17.640
<v Speaker 10>believe he has got uh, he has got good teams

0:27:17.880 --> 0:27:18.720
<v Speaker 10>that he makes.

0:27:18.840 --> 0:27:20.240
<v Speaker 4>He makes in the great teams.

0:27:20.320 --> 0:27:24.560
<v Speaker 10>Yeah, and so uh I got Patino and Saint John's

0:27:24.560 --> 0:27:27.120
<v Speaker 10>making a little bit of run this year. In my bracket,

0:27:27.119 --> 0:27:29.720
<v Speaker 10>I think there. I think, uh Zubi edge of four

0:27:30.119 --> 0:27:33.720
<v Speaker 10>is terrific. They guard really really well and and and

0:27:33.760 --> 0:27:35.639
<v Speaker 10>they're starting to shoot the basketball better.

0:27:35.960 --> 0:27:37.159
<v Speaker 2>How many teams can win it?

0:27:39.200 --> 0:27:42.520
<v Speaker 10>I think, uh, there's certainly everybody that's on the one

0:27:42.600 --> 0:27:46.280
<v Speaker 10>line can win it. I think Saint John's as a five.

0:27:46.600 --> 0:27:48.800
<v Speaker 10>How to Saint John's. How are they a five? I

0:27:48.800 --> 0:27:51.760
<v Speaker 10>mean that's just like they're a three seed in my house.

0:27:51.800 --> 0:27:54.520
<v Speaker 10>How can you come be a two and Saint John's

0:27:54.560 --> 0:27:56.000
<v Speaker 10>be a five? I know it's the body to work,

0:27:56.040 --> 0:27:58.040
<v Speaker 10>and Saint John's wasn't playing great early in the season.

0:27:59.359 --> 0:28:01.000
<v Speaker 4>I'd say there's seven or eight teams I think that

0:28:01.000 --> 0:28:02.040
<v Speaker 4>will win it. I think it's gonna be a lot

0:28:02.080 --> 0:28:02.360
<v Speaker 4>of chalk.

0:28:03.640 --> 0:28:07.960
<v Speaker 2>Well. You know, and we talk to different people about

0:28:07.960 --> 0:28:10.520
<v Speaker 2>this that it used to be the last ten games

0:28:10.520 --> 0:28:13.640
<v Speaker 2>of your schedule meant the most going into the tournament,

0:28:13.760 --> 0:28:15.840
<v Speaker 2>and I don't think that's the case now. They look

0:28:15.840 --> 0:28:17.679
<v Speaker 2>at your body of work. I don't care what you

0:28:17.680 --> 0:28:20.440
<v Speaker 2>did in October or November. I care what you're doing

0:28:20.560 --> 0:28:25.240
<v Speaker 2>now and Saint John's. You win the regular season, you

0:28:25.400 --> 0:28:27.840
<v Speaker 2>win the Biggiaest Tournament, you won what's six in a row,

0:28:27.960 --> 0:28:31.040
<v Speaker 2>you blow out Yukon. I got a factor that in.

0:28:32.040 --> 0:28:34.280
<v Speaker 10>Yeah, Dan, let me give you one something to think about.

0:28:34.359 --> 0:28:37.720
<v Speaker 10>I agree how you're playing lately is more important. But

0:28:37.880 --> 0:28:42.080
<v Speaker 10>the schedule because people are more interested in late February

0:28:42.080 --> 0:28:45.360
<v Speaker 10>and early March. You notice how the best teams play

0:28:45.400 --> 0:28:47.200
<v Speaker 10>against the best teams like crazy.

0:28:47.480 --> 0:28:48.160
<v Speaker 4>That's because there.

0:28:48.040 --> 0:28:51.320
<v Speaker 10>Are more eyeballs on college basketball after college football are over.

0:28:51.840 --> 0:28:55.040
<v Speaker 10>So the last ten I don't think is a great

0:28:55.080 --> 0:28:58.880
<v Speaker 10>metrics just because of the toughness of the schedule for

0:28:58.920 --> 0:29:00.760
<v Speaker 10>the best teams. I mean, if you're on you know,

0:29:01.520 --> 0:29:03.600
<v Speaker 10>so that would be just an issue. That's that's why

0:29:03.640 --> 0:29:05.280
<v Speaker 10>I would not lean in that direction.

0:29:05.800 --> 0:29:07.680
<v Speaker 2>Good to talk to you, keep stirring up.

0:29:08.360 --> 0:29:10.040
<v Speaker 4>Appreciate you, brother, Thank you always.

0:29:10.200 --> 0:29:13.840
<v Speaker 2>That's Bruce Pearl, former Coach of the Year and now

0:29:13.880 --> 0:29:17.440
<v Speaker 2>working for CBS and Turner. If you're waiting for him

0:29:17.480 --> 0:29:22.160
<v Speaker 2>to apologize and ain't athlete, just letting you know it's

<v Speaker 12>Brothers hilarious.

0:29:47.920 --> 0:29:51.280
<v Speaker 13>Man be'st of the weekend, DP. It was amazing to

0:29:51.320 --> 0:29:55.400
<v Speaker 13>watch the players Championship at the TPC Sawgrass Venue.

0:29:55.520 --> 0:29:57.360
<v Speaker 4>I mean it was It was riveting.

0:29:57.480 --> 0:30:01.080
<v Speaker 13>I mean, the little big overt meldown was like watching

0:30:01.120 --> 0:30:04.280
<v Speaker 13>a mere mortal at the local Muni and Cameron Young

0:30:04.440 --> 0:30:07.960
<v Speaker 13>hanging in there and just hyping the longest drive of

0:30:08.040 --> 0:30:11.160
<v Speaker 13>the tournament on hole eighteen.

0:30:10.880 --> 0:30:12.440
<v Speaker 12>Under pressure was just sick.

0:30:12.560 --> 0:30:13.280
<v Speaker 4>Props to him.

0:30:13.280 --> 0:30:16.320
<v Speaker 13>He seems like a good ass dude and besterered in.

0:30:16.720 --> 0:30:19.760
<v Speaker 13>I'm keeping a positive team USA and the WBC.

0:30:19.840 --> 0:30:21.600
<v Speaker 12>Last night was super fun.

0:30:22.120 --> 0:30:25.480
<v Speaker 13>I mean, these games are filled with passion, talent, competitive

0:30:25.840 --> 0:30:29.040
<v Speaker 13>matchups and have been a joy to watch and watching

0:30:29.040 --> 0:30:31.720
<v Speaker 13>Will Smith frame that like that last pace last night

0:30:31.760 --> 0:30:34.320
<v Speaker 13>at the end of the game, I definitely chandered my

0:30:34.400 --> 0:30:36.320
<v Speaker 13>inner like Jim Baeham, I was like.

0:30:36.680 --> 0:30:43.320
<v Speaker 2>Man, thank you Buddha, Uh, that was a bad call.

0:30:44.160 --> 0:30:49.440
<v Speaker 2>That was a bad call, and for some reason we

0:30:49.480 --> 0:30:52.640
<v Speaker 2>all thought that maybe they were using the automated balls

0:30:52.640 --> 0:30:56.280
<v Speaker 2>and strikes. Paulie said he was watching the game tap

0:30:56.280 --> 0:30:58.160
<v Speaker 2>in his head like, hey, you got to review that,

0:30:58.400 --> 0:31:01.440
<v Speaker 2>and then realize they're not reviewing that. Yeah, paul I

0:31:01.520 --> 0:31:02.440
<v Speaker 2>just assumed.

0:31:02.040 --> 0:31:04.479
<v Speaker 5>It was in the biggest tournament in the world. I

0:31:04.560 --> 0:31:07.160
<v Speaker 5>was pausing my celebration, like, well, there's got to be replay.

0:31:07.400 --> 0:31:11.120
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, well, the DR wishes there would have been a replay.

0:31:11.720 --> 0:31:15.200
<v Speaker 2>Here is the last strike, the last call.

0:31:16.520 --> 0:31:20.400
<v Speaker 1>Two to one, US Rondriguez dancing at third, the three

0:31:20.480 --> 0:31:21.440
<v Speaker 1>to two again.

0:31:22.560 --> 0:31:25.640
<v Speaker 2>Right play the US it dams.

0:31:25.520 --> 0:31:29.520
<v Speaker 1>Is Perdomo can't believe that the pitch was below the zone.

0:31:29.920 --> 0:31:33.000
<v Speaker 1>But the US has defeated the Dominican Republic.

0:31:33.600 --> 0:31:36.920
<v Speaker 2>They win tonight two to one, and they are having

0:31:37.000 --> 0:31:38.920
<v Speaker 2>the finals.

0:31:38.120 --> 0:31:40.720
<v Speaker 4>To take on the winner of Italy.

0:31:40.400 --> 0:31:46.680
<v Speaker 2>And Venezuela tomorrow night. Okay, still a bad call, and

0:31:46.760 --> 0:31:50.520
<v Speaker 2>certainly in that moment, although you know, once we do

0:31:50.640 --> 0:31:53.560
<v Speaker 2>the automated balls and strikes, could you imagine that's the

0:31:53.560 --> 0:31:56.720
<v Speaker 2>World Series. Let's say it's Game seven, bottom of the

0:31:56.800 --> 0:32:00.320
<v Speaker 2>ninth and you got the tying run at third and

0:32:00.400 --> 0:32:03.040
<v Speaker 2>all of a sudden you strike out, but then you

0:32:03.080 --> 0:32:05.280
<v Speaker 2>go wait, wait, wait wait, and you tap your helmet

0:32:05.680 --> 0:32:10.360
<v Speaker 2>and then they have to review it. It might take

0:32:10.360 --> 0:32:12.640
<v Speaker 2>away a little bit of the drama of that. You know,

0:32:12.920 --> 0:32:17.320
<v Speaker 2>last strike, you're running on the field, you're celebrating. It's

0:32:17.320 --> 0:32:20.760
<v Speaker 2>like no, no, no, wait wait wait, hold on, I thought

0:32:21.320 --> 0:32:25.560
<v Speaker 2>you know, Japan losing was a big surprise. That was

0:32:25.600 --> 0:32:32.320
<v Speaker 2>a big surprise. And Italy is not going away. Played well,

0:32:33.760 --> 0:32:36.640
<v Speaker 2>they beat Puerto Rico. There were some tears in the

0:32:36.680 --> 0:32:39.760
<v Speaker 2>back Mary the eyes and ears and the tears of

0:32:39.800 --> 0:32:44.040
<v Speaker 2>the Dan Patrick show. Yes, yeah he is Mopi Dick.

0:32:44.240 --> 0:32:48.800
<v Speaker 2>He was all weepy. Yeah. And then Anthony Anthony is

0:32:48.840 --> 0:32:52.400
<v Speaker 2>back there with Mario Is. You know he's Italian. So

0:32:53.040 --> 0:32:54.960
<v Speaker 2>those two are having a hard time sitting next to

0:32:55.000 --> 0:32:56.760
<v Speaker 2>each other today. Yeah.

0:32:56.800 --> 0:33:00.000
<v Speaker 5>Pauli the Japan manager, he resigned after the loss.

0:33:00.040 --> 0:33:04.760
<v Speaker 2>O man called it the career. Was he forced to resign?

0:33:05.480 --> 0:33:08.719
<v Speaker 2>Appears that he chose to resign. Air quotes All right,

0:34:27.120 --> 0:34:29.760
<v Speaker 2>I was watching a lot of the college basketball selection

0:34:29.920 --> 0:34:34.040
<v Speaker 2>shows and the analysis that follows after it, and then

0:34:34.080 --> 0:34:39.360
<v Speaker 2>I realized that the show was on, and they usually

0:34:39.600 --> 0:34:44.720
<v Speaker 2>hand out like a best supporting right away, usually early,

0:34:44.760 --> 0:34:47.400
<v Speaker 2>and then they make you late, wait till late to

0:34:47.480 --> 0:34:51.919
<v Speaker 2>get the Best Picture, Best Actor, And I did mention

0:34:52.040 --> 0:34:53.719
<v Speaker 2>this last week. I didn't know if there was going

0:34:53.760 --> 0:34:57.640
<v Speaker 2>to be sort of a Timothy Chalomet fatigue going on,

0:34:58.600 --> 0:35:03.360
<v Speaker 2>but held it. Michael Jordan, Michael B. Jordan ends up winning.

0:35:03.440 --> 0:35:05.759
<v Speaker 2>I don't think anybody's surprised there. I thought he was

0:35:05.800 --> 0:35:06.879
<v Speaker 2>wonderful in that role.

0:35:06.960 --> 0:35:09.759
<v Speaker 3>Yes, not only did Timothy Shalla may not win, but

0:35:10.040 --> 0:35:13.520
<v Speaker 3>I think Marty Supreme went over eight. I don't think

0:35:13.560 --> 0:35:15.800
<v Speaker 3>they They were nominated in a lot of categories and

0:35:15.840 --> 0:35:16.719
<v Speaker 3>didn't win any of them.

0:35:16.840 --> 0:35:22.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. Paul Thomas Anderson finally TA Yeah, Pta.

0:35:22.520 --> 0:35:22.920
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

0:35:23.360 --> 0:35:26.520
<v Speaker 2>I actually met him when I was doing QB Halloween

0:35:26.760 --> 0:35:31.600
<v Speaker 2>with Sandler and uh because Maya Rudolph was in the movie,

0:35:32.120 --> 0:35:36.279
<v Speaker 2>and he was there on set. And my son was like,

0:35:36.360 --> 0:35:39.480
<v Speaker 2>you know, when he found out that Pta is there

0:35:39.520 --> 0:35:41.360
<v Speaker 2>on set, He's like, Dad, could you get a picture

0:35:41.400 --> 0:35:46.880
<v Speaker 2>with PGA? I said, Pta, because Paul Thomas Anderson. I'm like, okay,

0:35:47.000 --> 0:35:50.520
<v Speaker 2>easy Scorsese, big deal. Yeah. So I got a picture

0:35:50.600 --> 0:35:52.319
<v Speaker 2>and send it to my son. He goes, how was he?

0:35:52.440 --> 0:35:52.880
<v Speaker 4>How was he?

0:35:52.920 --> 0:35:55.680
<v Speaker 2>I go, ah, he was okay. I don't know if

0:35:55.719 --> 0:35:57.800
<v Speaker 2>he knew who I was, but I got a picture

0:35:57.800 --> 0:36:01.839
<v Speaker 2>with PTA and then he ended up getting his Academy Award. Yes,

0:36:01.920 --> 0:36:02.799
<v Speaker 2>Paul is the name.

0:36:02.880 --> 0:36:06.719
<v Speaker 5>Michael Jordan the most successful name on earth, the basketball

0:36:06.719 --> 0:36:11.239
<v Speaker 5>player considered probably the best of all time worldwide. Now

0:36:11.280 --> 0:36:14.200
<v Speaker 5>Michael B. Jordan, which he was saddled with that name early,

0:36:14.800 --> 0:36:17.279
<v Speaker 5>is now best actor and cruising in his career.

0:36:17.560 --> 0:36:21.120
<v Speaker 2>Kimbll, was he named after Michael Jordan? I know his

0:36:21.200 --> 0:36:24.720
<v Speaker 2>dad is Michael A. Jordan, right, which I find it awesome,

0:36:24.800 --> 0:36:27.920
<v Speaker 2>So he's not the second. So if Michael Michael B. Jordan,

0:36:27.960 --> 0:36:31.680
<v Speaker 2>does he have Michael C. Jordan? If he has a son,

0:36:33.160 --> 0:36:38.400
<v Speaker 2>I'm guessing Michael A. Michael B. Michael C. Academy Award.

0:36:39.520 --> 0:36:43.040
<v Speaker 2>Good for him. Sinners was nominated for sixteen Awards. I

0:36:43.080 --> 0:36:48.360
<v Speaker 2>think I think it won four. Maybe, but yes, yes, Tom.

0:36:48.239 --> 0:36:50.479
<v Speaker 8>Everything I'm reading would suggest he was not named after

0:36:50.600 --> 0:36:51.359
<v Speaker 8>the basketball player.

0:36:51.360 --> 0:36:52.000
<v Speaker 4>It's what you said.

0:36:52.000 --> 0:36:53.640
<v Speaker 8>Michael A. Jordan then became Michael B.

0:36:53.800 --> 0:36:54.080
<v Speaker 4>Jordan.

0:36:54.200 --> 0:36:58.839
<v Speaker 2>Okay, his dad was before Michael Jordan. I'm guessing, so

0:36:58.960 --> 0:37:02.840
<v Speaker 2>maybe he's Michael A. Jordan. Did he add the A

0:37:03.080 --> 0:37:07.919
<v Speaker 2>because of Michael Jordan? Checking Yeah, I don't know, but yeah,

0:37:07.960 --> 0:37:10.239
<v Speaker 2>Sewan Penn. I thought when I saw the movie, I

0:37:10.280 --> 0:37:12.960
<v Speaker 2>said right away, it wasn't even over, and I said

0:37:12.960 --> 0:37:15.160
<v Speaker 2>to my wife, I said, he's gonna win the Academy Award.

0:37:15.840 --> 0:37:17.719
<v Speaker 2>How do you know that? I said, he just is

0:37:18.520 --> 0:37:24.360
<v Speaker 2>and he wins. Is that his third Academy Award?

0:37:25.200 --> 0:37:26.279
<v Speaker 4>Yes, that's what I see.

0:37:26.280 --> 0:37:27.719
<v Speaker 8>Sean Penn, that's his third.

0:37:27.800 --> 0:37:30.920
<v Speaker 2>So that puts him up with Nicholson, Tom Hanks.

0:37:31.080 --> 0:37:34.200
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, Sean Penn has two Best Actors Mystic River and

0:37:34.239 --> 0:37:37.160
<v Speaker 5>Milk and one Best Supporting for Last Night One Battle

0:37:37.200 --> 0:37:37.680
<v Speaker 5>after another?

0:37:37.760 --> 0:37:42.760
<v Speaker 3>Okay, yeah, how much pressure if you're Michael B. Jordan

0:37:42.840 --> 0:37:45.080
<v Speaker 3>after coming after Michael A. Jordan to name your child

0:37:45.120 --> 0:37:45.480
<v Speaker 3>Michael C.

0:37:45.640 --> 0:37:49.640
<v Speaker 2>Jordan, Yeah, I think I say it's signify done. I

0:37:49.640 --> 0:37:52.880
<v Speaker 2>mean you have to, yeah, Michael C. Yeah, I hope, right, Yeah,

0:37:53.000 --> 0:37:58.439
<v Speaker 2>I hope, so if you could. Okay, Harrison Ford Tom

0:37:58.520 --> 0:38:04.120
<v Speaker 2>Cruise neither's won an Academy Award. I think Cruise was nominated.

0:38:06.000 --> 0:38:11.000
<v Speaker 2>Was he nominated for Born on the fourth of July? Okay?

0:38:12.080 --> 0:38:16.239
<v Speaker 2>Was he a Best Supporting Actor? I thought he got

0:38:16.280 --> 0:38:18.520
<v Speaker 2>nominated for one other award.

0:38:18.640 --> 0:38:21.759
<v Speaker 3>Tom Cruise has an Honorary Academy.

0:38:21.360 --> 0:38:27.520
<v Speaker 2>No, no, no, that ain't it. No, Sorry, yeah, I'm

0:38:27.560 --> 0:38:31.239
<v Speaker 2>not taking an honorary sports Emmy. Yes, Todd to your

0:38:31.239 --> 0:38:31.759
<v Speaker 2>factor in.

0:38:31.680 --> 0:38:34.120
<v Speaker 8>Foro whose career would you want that he supposedly brought

0:38:34.200 --> 0:38:37.520
<v Speaker 8>back movies and saved the industry after COVID.

0:38:37.200 --> 0:38:39.160
<v Speaker 2>Well, I'm I'm the only one who said that. I

0:38:39.239 --> 0:38:41.920
<v Speaker 2>think feel that way. Yeah, okay, But you can be

0:38:42.239 --> 0:38:45.600
<v Speaker 2>Harrison Ford or you could be Tom Cruise.

0:38:47.000 --> 0:38:48.920
<v Speaker 8>I think I'm gonna go Harrison Ford, especially because of

0:38:48.920 --> 0:38:51.520
<v Speaker 8>Star Wars being such a huge deal. I know, the Mission.

0:38:51.280 --> 0:38:54.520
<v Speaker 2>Impossible is in Indiana Jones. Yeah, that's attractive.

0:38:54.640 --> 0:38:57.200
<v Speaker 3>That's he's He's in the two of the three biggest

0:38:57.719 --> 0:38:59.919
<v Speaker 3>or two of the biggest trilogies of all time.

0:39:01.480 --> 0:39:04.240
<v Speaker 2>Who are you gonna be seating Harrison Ford to Tom Cruise.

0:39:04.320 --> 0:39:05.879
<v Speaker 3>I feel like there's a lot that comes with being

0:39:05.920 --> 0:39:07.600
<v Speaker 3>Tom Cruise that I'm not really interested in.

0:39:07.920 --> 0:39:08.120
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

0:39:08.160 --> 0:39:09.399
<v Speaker 2>I'm happy to be really good.

0:39:09.320 --> 0:39:11.680
<v Speaker 3>At what I do and then be randomly anonymous, and

0:39:11.680 --> 0:39:13.960
<v Speaker 3>then you know, people like the big hubbub is like

0:39:14.000 --> 0:39:15.960
<v Speaker 3>he's got an earring? How old is he to wear

0:39:16.000 --> 0:39:18.120
<v Speaker 3>an earring? I would rather deal with that kind of

0:39:18.160 --> 0:39:19.840
<v Speaker 3>heat than you know, Tom Cruise.

0:39:19.840 --> 0:39:24.600
<v Speaker 2>But just just the film ography not anything else. Just

0:39:24.719 --> 0:39:27.480
<v Speaker 2>the films that you've been in, not the money that

0:39:27.520 --> 0:39:29.399
<v Speaker 2>you've made, just the films you've been in.

0:39:29.440 --> 0:39:33.279
<v Speaker 7>Marvin Harrison Ford is in The Fugitive Some taking Harrison Ford.

0:39:33.400 --> 0:39:35.960
<v Speaker 2>Okay, Todd The Raiders.

0:39:35.680 --> 0:39:37.440
<v Speaker 8>Are the Lost Arc movies. I just I think it's

0:39:37.440 --> 0:39:38.520
<v Speaker 8>definitely Harrison Ford.

0:39:40.880 --> 0:39:43.880
<v Speaker 2>And it feels like both play themselves in all of

0:39:43.920 --> 0:39:48.560
<v Speaker 2>their movies, right, I mean Harrison Ford, it didn't feel

0:39:48.600 --> 0:39:53.239
<v Speaker 2>like he ventured too far from being Harrison Ford. Tom

0:39:53.440 --> 0:39:56.520
<v Speaker 2>at least had you know, Tropic Thunder where he was

0:39:56.560 --> 0:39:57.879
<v Speaker 2>great in that movie. Yeh see.

0:39:57.920 --> 0:39:59.080
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, but he had to put on like a big

0:39:59.160 --> 0:40:02.160
<v Speaker 3>fat suit to do that. That doesn't really count. Yeah,

0:40:02.160 --> 0:40:04.480
<v Speaker 3>but for him, that's his DeNiro moment. He was very

0:40:04.520 --> 0:40:06.000
<v Speaker 3>good in it. He was He was really a lot

0:40:06.000 --> 0:40:08.000
<v Speaker 3>of fun. I think that a lot of the like

0:40:08.120 --> 0:40:11.080
<v Speaker 3>air quote great actors that we have now kind of

0:40:11.120 --> 0:40:14.640
<v Speaker 3>all play themselves. Like, does George Clooney ever really that different?

0:40:15.120 --> 0:40:15.319
<v Speaker 4>No?

0:40:15.440 --> 0:40:15.880
<v Speaker 2>Not really.

0:40:15.920 --> 0:40:18.520
<v Speaker 3>I mean even Denzel. I love Denzel, He's never really

0:40:18.560 --> 0:40:20.800
<v Speaker 3>that different. He's either the good guy Denzel or the

0:40:20.800 --> 0:40:24.640
<v Speaker 3>bad guy Denzel. But it's basically still Denzel. I mean

0:40:24.680 --> 0:40:27.879
<v Speaker 3>all of the actors now, but of a certain age.

0:40:27.880 --> 0:40:31.600
<v Speaker 3>Maybe are all kind of that scene DeNiro Pacino, They're

0:40:31.640 --> 0:40:32.439
<v Speaker 3>always them.

0:40:32.680 --> 0:40:32.919
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:40:33.080 --> 0:40:33.239
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

0:40:33.320 --> 0:40:37.200
<v Speaker 5>Paul Harrison Ford had Witness. Blade Runner is a classic

0:40:38.000 --> 0:40:40.840
<v Speaker 5>back in the day. Yeah, and he's more variety for

0:40:40.880 --> 0:40:41.479
<v Speaker 5>Harrison Ford.

0:40:41.520 --> 0:40:45.560
<v Speaker 2>I think Witness is a great movie. He was great.

0:40:46.560 --> 0:40:48.080
<v Speaker 2>John book Man.

0:40:48.160 --> 0:40:51.319
<v Speaker 3>I thought about that bathroom scene every time I ever

0:40:51.400 --> 0:40:53.600
<v Speaker 3>went into a public bathroom, I was always like, are

0:40:53.640 --> 0:40:55.520
<v Speaker 3>their teeth in there?

0:40:55.800 --> 0:40:58.120
<v Speaker 2>Patriot Games for Harrison Fuck, I was in that. I

0:40:58.200 --> 0:41:00.640
<v Speaker 2>went to that bathroom when I got into the Philadelphia

0:41:00.719 --> 0:41:05.880
<v Speaker 2>train station, just to go in there. Yeah. And the

0:41:05.960 --> 0:41:09.480
<v Speaker 2>silo scene with Danny Glover. That silo scene is crazy.

0:41:09.680 --> 0:41:11.799
<v Speaker 2>That's a crazy movie. No, I know, Killed by Grain

0:41:13.480 --> 0:41:20.960
<v Speaker 2>not common. Kelly McGillis was in there. She was great. Oh,

0:41:21.520 --> 0:41:26.320
<v Speaker 2>very amis shot. J Billis. Make that segue, J billis,

0:41:28.160 --> 0:41:31.640
<v Speaker 2>He'll join us coming up from I think the Nashville Airport.

0:41:32.160 --> 0:41:35.600
<v Speaker 2>He's stuck. He's stuck with us. Our two on the

0:41:35.600 --> 0:41:36.120
<v Speaker 2>way after this
