Yeah, 25 00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:28,680 Speaker 1: when the when the music starts getting longer, it starts 26 00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:31,119 Speaker 1: getting faster. You know you're you're cooked. You know when 27 00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:34,000 Speaker 1: you can you can add tetris to your actual life 28 00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:37,200 Speaker 1: is when you move or you help somebody move because 29 00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:39,440 Speaker 1: you're trying to fit stuff on a truck and all 30 00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:41,640 Speaker 1: of a sudden you're looking at your stuff on the 31 00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:44,319 Speaker 1: sidewalk or in the room, going well, that'll fit there, 32 00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:46,240 Speaker 1: and that'll fit there, and then you try to jam 33 00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:49,480 Speaker 1: it all back together. So there is some practical application 34 00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:53,760 Speaker 1: for all those hours wasted playing that. Uh so, welcome inside. 35 00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:55,960 Speaker 1: We got a big NFL story coming your way in 36 00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:59,040 Speaker 1: a second, but wanted to bring this to you first 37 00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:01,560 Speaker 1: here from the NB. You know, again, I don't like 38 00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:03,120 Speaker 1: to say this. I don't like to bring this up 39 00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:06,640 Speaker 1: that much. But remember before the season when I said, hey, uh, 40 00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:09,840 Speaker 1: you know, you're looking for two long shot NBA Finals 41 00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:11,880 Speaker 1: teams in each conference and I gave you the Pistons 42 00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 1: in the East and the Spurs in the West. Okay, 43 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:17,760 Speaker 1: if you did that, you might be rich. Or Vegas 44 00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:20,760 Speaker 1: is gonna call and say we're buying you out. Don't worry. 45 00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:22,320 Speaker 1: The proof is there. It's all over the social media. 46 00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:26,320 Speaker 1: Let it ride, man. Right now, late in the second quarter, 47 00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:31,880 Speaker 1: the Spurs are thumping the Denver Nuggets fifty nine forty three. 48 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:35,080 Speaker 1: Oh okay, well you'd expect that, right, except no Wemby 49 00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:38,840 Speaker 1: in this game. The Spurs are doing this sans Wemby. 50 00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:42,359 Speaker 1: There is no Wemby in this game. David going off though, Yes, 51 00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:45,480 Speaker 1: I just saw a great left handed moved by this 52 00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:48,880 Speaker 1: new guy Ginobili. Is that his name? He's a lefty 53 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:51,240 Speaker 1: and he's from Argentina. Well you know why he's starting 54 00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:54,400 Speaker 1: star Eh. When you spell it out, it's g I 55 00:02:54,960 --> 00:03:00,080 Speaker 1: and oh gee, Jean Geen, it's a week of your 56 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:02,240 Speaker 1: name is Gino. And isn't he dating that one from 57 00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:05,520 Speaker 1: Desperate Housewives, Marsha Cross? Like, I think that's what it is, right, 58 00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:08,200 Speaker 1: this guy ganob believe is dating Marshall. Yeah, I think 59 00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:10,640 Speaker 1: so that's right, got it right there? So again, the 60 00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:16,480 Speaker 1: Spurs thumping the Nuggets right now? No Wemby always worked 61 00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:20,720 Speaker 1: to balance a definition. You've already got what five players 62 00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:22,720 Speaker 1: on the verge of being in double figures. We're not 63 00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:26,480 Speaker 1: even through the second quarter. I'm all about the Spurs, 64 00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:29,520 Speaker 1: about the Spurs, no Wemby. I'm all about the Spur, 65 00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:36,040 Speaker 1: no Wemby, look out look ah. Now to the NFL 66 00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:39,280 Speaker 1: because a big thing happened today and and you know 67 00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:43,480 Speaker 1: my take on this last night aged like ooh clearance 68 00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:47,480 Speaker 1: produce at a supermarket. Uh I said, Listen, if the 69 00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:50,320 Speaker 1: Vikings wanted Kyler Murray, they would have had Kyler Murray. 70 00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:54,120 Speaker 1: If the Steelers wanted Aaron Rodgers, they would have Aaron Rodgers. 71 00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:56,360 Speaker 1: Well let's put a pin in that part of it. Yeah, 72 00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:58,920 Speaker 1: but uh I said, watch Kyle, I guarantee you there's 73 00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:02,120 Speaker 1: a huge debate, huge going on Kyler Murray. Is he 74 00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:04,160 Speaker 1: the better guy Steelers? What he would be that we 75 00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:06,360 Speaker 1: spent time putting him in the Steelers offense last night? 76 00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 1: What that would be? And then today Kyler Burry decides, Hey, 77 00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:12,760 Speaker 1: I've always wanted to be a Viking. Oh I'm so excited. 78 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:15,960 Speaker 1: I'm a Viking. Now. Kyler Murray is a Viking for 79 00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:19,840 Speaker 1: one year and he's he's set the deal that he 80 00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:23,479 Speaker 1: can't be franchised. He is absolutely a free agent following 81 00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:26,320 Speaker 1: this season with the Minnesota Vikings, because remember he was 82 00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:28,400 Speaker 1: allegedly going to talk to a bunch of other teams 83 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:31,279 Speaker 1: about his plans for twenty twenty seven. Yes, yes, he 84 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:34,120 Speaker 1: was gonna do that. Very curious kind of circumstance. He 85 00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:35,640 Speaker 1: let's have a zoom call of all the people that 86 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:37,719 Speaker 1: might want me next year. Now I want to say this, 87 00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:41,080 Speaker 1: every's going Ah, Jason, how wrong were you remembering a 88 00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:44,680 Speaker 1: few good men when Tom Cruise wasn't getting along with 89 00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:47,560 Speaker 1: Harold Dawson and he said, jeez, Dawson's gonna go to 90 00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:50,760 Speaker 1: jail just to spite me. Kyler Murray signed with the 91 00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:53,479 Speaker 1: Vikings just to spite me from last night because I said, Hey, 92 00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:56,160 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh Steelers, He's signed with him just to spite Now. 93 00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:57,920 Speaker 1: I hope they fail. Now, I hope he doesn't win 94 00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:00,000 Speaker 1: the job. Now, I hope JJ McCarthy keeps to jail. 95 00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:03,200 Speaker 1: He just despite me, just despite that. Take. Oh, you 96 00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:05,520 Speaker 1: think that's gonna happen the next day, I'll go to 97 00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:07,760 Speaker 1: You could have gone to the Vikings anytime, but we 98 00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:10,440 Speaker 1: talked about it last night. Twelve hours later, he's a 99 00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:12,680 Speaker 1: Viking and I get a text from Frostburg a few 100 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:15,160 Speaker 1: hours ago that just says, boy, I guess Conler Murray 101 00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:17,080 Speaker 1: wanted to be a Viking. I was like, come on, man, 102 00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:20,200 Speaker 1: I mean he cried when farmed through the interception. Why 103 00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:23,960 Speaker 1: do you even ponder passing all of those things that 104 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:26,200 Speaker 1: come to fruition? Uh? You know when we played the 105 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:29,360 Speaker 1: original Djenga or Tetris game with all the quarterbacks, I 106 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:34,440 Speaker 1: thought that, you know, going to the fun and exciting 107 00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:36,640 Speaker 1: world of Minnesota would be the best fit. It was 108 00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:39,559 Speaker 1: that or Atlanta. Well, Atlanta said all right, we'll take Tua, 109 00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:43,320 Speaker 1: and now Minnesota finally takes Kyler Murray. But you know, 110 00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:47,480 Speaker 1: your your logic wasn't terrible. It was great logic. It's 111 00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:51,799 Speaker 1: what should have happened. Because it became the it was awesome. 112 00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:54,200 Speaker 1: For those that missed it, I had to find the 113 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 1: full podcast. Really now you're singing it like Vinyl Richie. 114 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:03,400 Speaker 1: I had a dream. It was an awesome dream. I 115 00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:05,400 Speaker 1: had a take. It was an awesome take, and it 116 00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:07,640 Speaker 1: should have happened. Was the idea of all right, the 117 00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:11,719 Speaker 1: Steelers Kyler Murray, he likes Mike McCarthy, Mike McCarthy likes him. 118 00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:13,800 Speaker 1: They go there and they have a guy that could 119 00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:17,400 Speaker 1: potentially be their long term Yeah, instead Minnesota. Now we're 120 00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:19,720 Speaker 1: on this one. Year deal where he will go beat 121 00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:23,960 Speaker 1: out JJ McCarthy no question, and then re enter free agency. 122 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:27,720 Speaker 1: In theory, with the opportunity, you know, they basically get 123 00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:31,400 Speaker 1: the least with the option to buy on Kyler Murray 124 00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:34,600 Speaker 1: here as they'll negotiate and do all that that fun stuff, 125 00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:38,640 Speaker 1: but no tags, no trade, all of those things, and 126 00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:42,240 Speaker 1: the Cardinals still picking up most of the freight. So yeah, 127 00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:45,000 Speaker 1: I mean the fact that it came to fruition pretty fast. 128 00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:48,120 Speaker 1: I'm sorry you didn't get a full twenty four hours 129 00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:50,719 Speaker 1: on it, but you know, asked and answered, and now 130 00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:53,599 Speaker 1: I have to presume that at some point Aaron Rodgers 131 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:55,760 Speaker 1: signs on the dotted lot or is it Captain Kirk 132 00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:58,719 Speaker 1: just despite me? Just that's the only reason. What's the 133 00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:01,240 Speaker 1: only reason? Why are you signing the contract? I had? Bit, 134 00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:04,200 Speaker 1: I don't think you could sign this contract for SPIKEE. 135 00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:07,520 Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy is saying, we had an agreement. We even 136 00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:10,000 Speaker 1: had a two year deal for him, we had guaranteed money. 137 00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:12,280 Speaker 1: Why well, he listened to that Yahoo Jason Smith on 138 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:14,240 Speaker 1: the radio last night. He said, now I'm going to 139 00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:17,600 Speaker 1: Minnesota just to spite that guy blank him. Man, come on, 140 00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:19,760 Speaker 1: here's the thing. We might have been the only show 141 00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:23,560 Speaker 1: to go all through a full complete analysis laying it 142 00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:26,600 Speaker 1: out on that such a level and never bringing up 143 00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 1: his height. No, because everybody else is a heightist. 144 00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:29,840 Speaker 3: Me. 145 00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:33,520 Speaker 1: I'm a short guy, and I appreciate greatness where I 146 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:39,280 Speaker 1: find it. We rode the lightning. Now this deal, Yeah, 147 00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:42,160 Speaker 1: what we have seen tells you a couple of really 148 00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:45,240 Speaker 1: big things. The first part that hey, you can't franchise you. 149 00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:47,760 Speaker 1: I have to seek my fortune elsewhere or get a 150 00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:50,280 Speaker 1: new contract in twenty twenty seven. You talk about betting 151 00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:53,880 Speaker 1: on yourself. That's Kyler Murray saying, Hey, I know I'm 152 00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:55,480 Speaker 1: gonna have a big year, and it's not gonna be 153 00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:57,520 Speaker 1: something I'm going to cash in. If I just watched 154 00:07:57,560 --> 00:08:00,320 Speaker 1: Malik Willis get twenty five million a year for one 155 00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:04,080 Speaker 1: good game, I'm gonna catch I have confidence. The fact 156 00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:07,000 Speaker 1: that this is where Murray ended up and this is 157 00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:10,400 Speaker 1: part of the deal with his contract, is that I 158 00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:14,480 Speaker 1: have to be free in twenty twenty seven. This tells 159 00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:17,680 Speaker 1: me that Kyler Murray not only is he going to 160 00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:21,120 Speaker 1: be the starting quarterback, he's going to win the job outright. Yep. 161 00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:24,680 Speaker 1: The Vikings don't go into this saying we want competition 162 00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:28,520 Speaker 1: for JJ McCarthy. Competition for JJ McCarthy would be, Hey, 163 00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:31,120 Speaker 1: we're going back to Kirk cousins, right, and if you falter, 164 00:08:31,280 --> 00:08:32,679 Speaker 1: we have a guy to come in. We're putting a 165 00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:35,920 Speaker 1: little bit of pressure on you to perform. That's competition. 166 00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:38,600 Speaker 1: That's hey, we want somebody in here that's gonna push 167 00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:41,760 Speaker 1: our starter, and if our starter doesn't respond, there's somebody 168 00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:44,040 Speaker 1: good we can go to. Kyler Murray was the best 169 00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:46,520 Speaker 1: quarterback on the market. He was the best guy. He 170 00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:48,720 Speaker 1: was the best guy before free agency began. He was 171 00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:50,800 Speaker 1: the best guy today and the Vikings went out to 172 00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:53,320 Speaker 1: get him. Tells me they signed him to come in 173 00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:55,920 Speaker 1: and say sorry, JJ, we're done with you now. They 174 00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:58,560 Speaker 1: can't present it that way, because, boy, they look like 175 00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:01,280 Speaker 1: it's such an even worse mistake. Letting Sam Tarnald cooks 176 00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:03,360 Speaker 1: every day that looks worse and worse and worse and worse. 177 00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:06,200 Speaker 1: It's one of the worst decisions in NFL history, letting 178 00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:07,840 Speaker 1: Sam Darnald go after he did what he did for 179 00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:10,120 Speaker 1: them two years ago. Wait wait, wait, wait, I got 180 00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:13,880 Speaker 1: I gotta tyshit. You got that right, Okay, I've said 181 00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:18,160 Speaker 1: that many times. No, no, but just the emphatic, almost glassy 182 00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:21,959 Speaker 1: eye that you had as you revisited that moment. It 183 00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:25,280 Speaker 1: stolen the virtues of the greatness Sam. Really, I mean, 184 00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:29,040 Speaker 1: it's one of the worst moves in NFL history, saying 185 00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:31,640 Speaker 1: goodbye to a franchise to a quarterback that came in 186 00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:34,679 Speaker 1: and threw for four thousand yards and thirty five touchdowns 187 00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:36,160 Speaker 1: and went to the Pro Bowls, one of the top 188 00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:38,599 Speaker 1: five quarterbacks in the game. And you said, Nah, a 189 00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:40,520 Speaker 1: guy that got hurt that we don't know anything about. 190 00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:42,400 Speaker 1: We're gonna stick with him, but we could keep you 191 00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:45,080 Speaker 1: around franchise him. Nah, we're just gonna let him go 192 00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:47,560 Speaker 1: like that. Like that, everybody should have lost their job, 193 00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:49,679 Speaker 1: like Minnesota should have lost their franchise for that. A. 194 00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:52,320 Speaker 1: We have to take the franchise away from you, and 195 00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:54,800 Speaker 1: we're gonna reboot it someplace else. Okay, just so you know, 196 00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:57,160 Speaker 1: we're gonna bring professional football to New York City for 197 00:09:57,160 --> 00:09:59,679 Speaker 1: the first time. Oh see what I did there. But 198 00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:02,360 Speaker 1: this tells you that this is where if they were 199 00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:05,240 Speaker 1: gonna go with A. We still love JJ McCarthy, but 200 00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:07,800 Speaker 1: we can't just give him the job. That's who comes in, 201 00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:10,360 Speaker 1: you know, they go and they get Tua or they 202 00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:12,720 Speaker 1: get somebody else to come into all right, if you 203 00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:15,440 Speaker 1: don't do it, we're gonna push you. This is Kyler 204 00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:17,640 Speaker 1: Murray and the fact that they're okay with this, With 205 00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:20,880 Speaker 1: this type of situation, he's betting on himself. I'm gonna 206 00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:23,880 Speaker 1: have a big year. He knows if he's If he's 207 00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:28,000 Speaker 1: okay with that, he was most likely given assurances you're 208 00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:30,440 Speaker 1: our guy, because you don't get if he goes into 209 00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:32,400 Speaker 1: this situation and the Vikings sit down and say, listen, 210 00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:35,000 Speaker 1: this is what we want. Obviously, we haven't need a quarterback. 211 00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:37,520 Speaker 1: We love JJ. We drafted him in the first round. 212 00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:40,520 Speaker 1: But you know it hasn't worked out. He hasn't been healthy. 213 00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:43,200 Speaker 1: We really need something here. We need a plan in place, 214 00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:45,040 Speaker 1: We need someone to push him. You could win the job, 215 00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:48,320 Speaker 1: then maybe it's okay. Hey, here's a two year deal, 216 00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:50,480 Speaker 1: here's some a little bit of guaranteed money in the 217 00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:53,200 Speaker 1: second year. Whatever. It is the fact that he is 218 00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:55,679 Speaker 1: betting on now to gamble, to bet on yourself, but 219 00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:58,240 Speaker 1: he's But what's not a gamble is that he knows 220 00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:01,440 Speaker 1: he's gonna get the opportunity right away to succeed. He's 221 00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:03,360 Speaker 1: gonna win the job out of camp. He will be 222 00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:05,480 Speaker 1: the starting quarterback. Kevin O'Connell knows what he's doing. He's 223 00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:07,560 Speaker 1: gonna get him outside the pocket where he could actually 224 00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:11,000 Speaker 1: see downfield and be able to make big plays. I mean, 225 00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:16,000 Speaker 1: this is the best quarterback in this situation. It's awesome. 226 00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:19,479 Speaker 1: It's a fantastic situation for him. It's a win for Minnesota. 227 00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:23,319 Speaker 1: I can't get over that they waited this long and 228 00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:25,679 Speaker 1: they still were able to go get the best quarterback 229 00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:27,760 Speaker 1: in fre agency. This is a win for them. All 230 00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:30,320 Speaker 1: the flak I give them for blowing it with Darnold 231 00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:32,160 Speaker 1: everything else, I get him a lot of credit for 232 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:34,920 Speaker 1: waiting it out and getting the best guy. Not paying 233 00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:36,960 Speaker 1: him anything. You're not into him for any more money 234 00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:39,840 Speaker 1: after this year. If something happens and JJ McCarthy is 235 00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:43,199 Speaker 1: unbelievable or Murray is dinged up and McCarthy plays and 236 00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:45,720 Speaker 1: is good, it doesn't matter because you're not into anybody 237 00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:48,400 Speaker 1: for any more money. Today was a huge win for 238 00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:51,520 Speaker 1: Minnesota getting Kyler Murray. But make no mistake, he is 239 00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:54,240 Speaker 1: starting out of the gate for the Minnesota Yeah. I mean, 240 00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:56,840 Speaker 1: you look at the couple of days that it took 241 00:11:56,880 --> 00:11:58,800 Speaker 1: to get to this point, and I got to imagine 242 00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:00,920 Speaker 1: a lot of it is the bad over Hey, you 243 00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:03,640 Speaker 1: can't franchise me, you can't trade me, you can't all 244 00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:07,520 Speaker 1: of these no, no knows. But if you're going in 245 00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:10,760 Speaker 1: with those considerations, there's there's no chance McCarthy's winning this 246 00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:13,080 Speaker 1: job because O'Connell's got to be on the hot seat 247 00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:15,800 Speaker 1: to a degree. However much you look at you know, 248 00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:21,800 Speaker 1: the the outgoing gm Adolpha Mensa before he got displaced 249 00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:25,840 Speaker 1: and now he's off in San Francisco again, but you 250 00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:28,800 Speaker 1: know the drafting issues that he had, and obviously the 251 00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:31,600 Speaker 1: big bet on McCarthy. Well, O'Connell doesn't get a full 252 00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:35,840 Speaker 1: pass on that because outside of a couple of drives 253 00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:38,920 Speaker 1: against the Bears early on before the injury, otherwise you 254 00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:41,800 Speaker 1: got a ten game sample size, which is just well, 255 00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:43,960 Speaker 1: how is how would we say it not good? I 256 00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:47,840 Speaker 1: saw the parallel. It's funny because Josh Rosen played ten 257 00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:51,720 Speaker 1: games in twenty eighteen before Kyler Murray was brought in 258 00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:55,720 Speaker 1: as his replacements, and now McCarthy plays his ten games 259 00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:58,760 Speaker 1: and here's Kyler Murray coming in to take his job. Look, 260 00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:02,160 Speaker 1: if I've got Jefferson and I've got Howkinson, and I've 261 00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:05,439 Speaker 1: got a healthy Addison. Whatever the running back position become 262 00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:09,200 Speaker 1: between Chandler and Mason and whatever else they bring in 263 00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:11,600 Speaker 1: via draft or the rest of the free agent period, 264 00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:15,199 Speaker 1: I'm feeling pretty good if I'm Kyler Murray coming in 265 00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:19,440 Speaker 1: with that flank of supporting cast, because I mean, even 266 00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:23,240 Speaker 1: he spoke on the ability, because justin Jefferson a year ago, 267 00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:26,079 Speaker 1: we saw how frustrated he was. We saw him go 268 00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:29,319 Speaker 1: to podcasts after the season and take shots at the 269 00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:33,400 Speaker 1: team's decision to not bring back Sam Darnold. So you 270 00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:36,080 Speaker 1: had to make a splash, and for all the detractors 271 00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:40,679 Speaker 1: of Kyler Murray, you were this decide of Cleveland, right, 272 00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:44,079 Speaker 1: just waffer Thin above. In terms of the way Arizona's 273 00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:46,880 Speaker 1: operated things for years, a couple of times to the 274 00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:49,880 Speaker 1: Pro Bowl, a couple of big seasons. If he's healthy 275 00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:52,400 Speaker 1: and his legs are ready to roll, potential for a 276 00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:56,440 Speaker 1: big year, big day for Minnesota. It doesn't nearly erase 277 00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:58,280 Speaker 1: the fact that boy a guy that won the Super Bowl. 278 00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:01,840 Speaker 1: We'll let him go, okay, but great day for minutes again, 279 00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:05,480 Speaker 1: he will start out of the gate. JJ McCarthy quarterback, 280 00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:07,960 Speaker 1: New York Jets twenty twenty seven. No, you know what 281 00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:13,880 Speaker 1: it is. JJ McCarthy backup quarterback Los Angeles Chargers twenty 282 00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:16,440 Speaker 1: twenty seven. Wow he got you did? Yeah, you're gonna 283 00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:18,520 Speaker 1: bring McCarthy at all, just trying to get him mad. No, 284 00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:20,880 Speaker 1: we just you know, he had a good day today. Yeah, No, 285 00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:22,840 Speaker 1: they did. Hey, Chargers had a pretty good week.

I feel like we're playing the game from 379 00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:29,760 Speaker 1: the prices right twenty nine twenty four, twenty one points 380 00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:32,400 Speaker 1: for Bam out of Baio on six of twenty shooting, 381 00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:35,800 Speaker 1: did not make a three eight rebounds couple of assists, 382 00:19:35,800 --> 00:19:38,879 Speaker 1: but Miami wins again thirty eight and twenty nine. Now 383 00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:40,359 Speaker 1: on the season is starting to make a little bit 384 00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:43,760 Speaker 1: of noise here in the East. But Bam follows up 385 00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:47,240 Speaker 1: his eighty three point performance with a more human twenty 386 00:19:47,320 --> 00:19:50,200 Speaker 1: one points for the Heat tonight in their one twelve, 387 00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:53,199 Speaker 1: one oh five win, not even their leading scorer tonight. 388 00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:55,520 Speaker 1: But so now the last two games BAM out of 389 00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:57,879 Speaker 1: Baiyo has a total one hundred and four points. So 390 00:19:57,920 --> 00:19:59,960 Speaker 1: that's pretty nice done. Yeah, I mean twenty one point. 391 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:03,320 Speaker 1: It sets on bar with this season averaged twenty in 392 00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:06,119 Speaker 1: change the zero for five from three point range. On 393 00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:09,000 Speaker 1: the other side, Giannis thirty one point six boards in 394 00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:11,560 Speaker 1: the loss. Look, this game was close late, so we 395 00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:14,120 Speaker 1: could put one in that win column for us, which 396 00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:18,280 Speaker 1: is good. But certainly after all of the vitriol and 397 00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:21,600 Speaker 1: hatred since the last game, I'm sure he was happy 398 00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:24,800 Speaker 1: for Tim Moffin to just go play basketball. Now listen, now, 399 00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:27,439 Speaker 1: I'm glad you brought that up, because I can't believe 400 00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:30,439 Speaker 1: that it's still two days later and as many people 401 00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:36,000 Speaker 1: are still mad about Maam Autebio becoming the second leading 402 00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:39,879 Speaker 1: individual game score of all time eighty three points, passing 403 00:20:39,960 --> 00:20:43,680 Speaker 1: Kobe Bryant's eighty one.

I mean, it's a WWE 503 00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:41,960 Speaker 1: kind of work. I apologize to. He said. He said, 504 00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:43,800 Speaker 1: there was a moment, and where's a moment in a 505 00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:47,200 Speaker 1: time like this, it's carpet diem, which obviously means sees 506 00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:48,679 Speaker 1: the day you have to go for it. And that 507 00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:51,560 Speaker 1: was just thrilling. The last couple of days, there's been 508 00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:55,040 Speaker 1: so much crap about oh at a bio, it's not 509 00:25:55,119 --> 00:25:58,400 Speaker 1: a real record because because the heat did as much 510 00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:00,680 Speaker 1: as they could to get him the wreck because they 511 00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:03,960 Speaker 1: fouled the Wizards to get the ball back, because they 512 00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:06,480 Speaker 1: did everything that they shoot all kinds of other shots 513 00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:09,240 Speaker 1: just to get him the basketball. It wasn't basketball. At 514 00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:12,040 Speaker 1: the end of the game, all sorts of pundits from 515 00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:14,760 Speaker 1: players and people on TV, and I wanted to say 516 00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:18,520 Speaker 1: good for Eric Spoulse saying I apologize to nobody, because 517 00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:20,480 Speaker 1: let me, first of all, let's deal with this because 518 00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:22,720 Speaker 1: the two biggest things that I can't believe people say, 519 00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:25,879 Speaker 1: all right, it was it was it was It was 520 00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:28,080 Speaker 1: too much that you did to try to go for 521 00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:30,440 Speaker 1: the eighty three points, too much to go try Oh 522 00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:32,719 Speaker 1: but Kobe's eighty one was fine when Sam Mitchell was 523 00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:35,600 Speaker 1: single guarding him throughout the entire game. Go look at 524 00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:38,800 Speaker 1: Kobe's last five buckets. It just still He's got seventy points. 525 00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:40,920 Speaker 1: They're covering one on one, like what are you doing? 526 00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:43,880 Speaker 1: Then at least at least the Wizards were throwing three 527 00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:45,959 Speaker 1: guys at Bam out of Bio trying to stop it. 528 00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:49,119 Speaker 1: So okay, But so it wasn't about what you know 529 00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:51,439 Speaker 1: this they went too much for it. What's what's Eric 530 00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:54,000 Speaker 1: Spolston supposed to do. Hey, Bam, you're having one of 531 00:26:54,040 --> 00:26:56,960 Speaker 1: those once in a generation nights. I'm gonna sit you 532 00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:59,560 Speaker 1: out here. We can't go for the record. He's gonna 533 00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:01,399 Speaker 1: do that to one of his players, Are you kidding me? 534 00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:03,320 Speaker 1: What the hell kind of what the hell kind of 535 00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:05,560 Speaker 1: thing is that? Oh, you shouldn't have done that. He's 536 00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:07,720 Speaker 1: trying to help one of his guys get to eighty 537 00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:09,920 Speaker 1: three points in a game that as he said, it's 538 00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:13,000 Speaker 1: a Tuesday night, nobody cares. What does it matter? Right, 539 00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:14,800 Speaker 1: because honestly, that's what it is. You could say the 540 00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:19,040 Speaker 1: same thing on a Sunday night game in late January 541 00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:21,199 Speaker 1: with the Lakers and the Raptors. You know, what does 542 00:27:21,240 --> 00:27:24,520 Speaker 1: anybody care? I mean, you're really cherry picking your argument 543 00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:28,520 Speaker 1: here just because Kobe. Look, everybody's got an emotional connection 544 00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:30,440 Speaker 1: to Kobe Bryant and I get that. And Kobe is 545 00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:33,200 Speaker 1: much more of a worthy player to have the second 546 00:27:33,280 --> 00:27:35,159 Speaker 1: most points all time because of the player he was 547 00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:37,280 Speaker 1: compared to. Well, it's Bam out of Bio. Would people 548 00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:39,840 Speaker 1: be going this crazy it was Luca, If it was Wenby, 549 00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:42,880 Speaker 1: probably not. But because it's Bam out of Bio, it's 550 00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:45,320 Speaker 1: come on, man, Bam out of Bio eighty three. So 551 00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:47,800 Speaker 1: that's really what this is all about. Ah, I don't 552 00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:50,719 Speaker 1: think he's worthy enough of having eighty three points and 553 00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:53,359 Speaker 1: they went to the Wolfer. Okay, wait a minute, I mean, really, 554 00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:56,000 Speaker 1: do you think that's not gonna happen? You think Eric 555 00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:58,680 Speaker 1: spols is gonna do it? Yeah? Sorry, sorry, bam, Hey boy, 556 00:27:58,760 --> 00:28:01,080 Speaker 1: seventy nine points. Man, you could get to eighty one, 557 00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:03,040 Speaker 1: but there's only a couple minutes left up by twenty 558 00:28:03,040 --> 00:28:04,920 Speaker 1: five come out of the game. That's just stupid. That's 559 00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:07,760 Speaker 1: just absolutely stupid. Well, I mean, if you go back 560 00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:11,479 Speaker 1: into the game log and everything for Kobe as he 561 00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:13,760 Speaker 1: got to his points a lot scored when they were 562 00:28:13,800 --> 00:28:16,800 Speaker 1: already up fifteen in the final couple of minutes. So 563 00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:19,479 Speaker 1: you know, you can pick that. You and I we 564 00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:23,400 Speaker 1: were watching it and commenting live, and for me it did. 565 00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:25,440 Speaker 1: It's not a bam out of Bio. He's one of 566 00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:27,639 Speaker 1: my actual favorite players in the game because he's a 567 00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:30,680 Speaker 1: glue guy and during the Jimmy Butler era and everything, 568 00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:32,920 Speaker 1: he was the guy doing all the dirty work, not 569 00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:37,280 Speaker 1: putting up massive stats, but one of those guys that's 570 00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:40,520 Speaker 1: all the hindsight for folks that didn't watch it whatever, 571 00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:43,000 Speaker 1: I don't care who it is, like, just watching the 572 00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:46,560 Speaker 1: game as it played out. You and I had our 573 00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:49,480 Speaker 1: disagreement over it. I mean, look, eighty three is eighty three. 574 00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:51,680 Speaker 1: You don't take it away, and in the annals of 575 00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:55,440 Speaker 1: history it goes down that way. Watching it trans transpire, 576 00:28:55,560 --> 00:28:59,320 Speaker 1: lie Like, yeah, this final four minutes is taking ninety 577 00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:02,800 Speaker 1: five minutes because of the fouls and not because the 578 00:29:02,840 --> 00:29:05,600 Speaker 1: game's close. Right, We're used to that and people are 579 00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:08,960 Speaker 1: mad about that part, so now they're mad here as well. 580 00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:13,280 Speaker 1: It's really just you just can say to Spolster, we 581 00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:16,000 Speaker 1: didn't like it, and you move on. But it's become 582 00:29:16,040 --> 00:29:19,800 Speaker 1: this larger indictment of any of these types of performances. Yes, 583 00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:23,760 Speaker 1: if a guy's feeling it and you're having a big night, 584 00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:26,480 Speaker 1: there's part of you that wants to say, hey, let's 585 00:29:26,560 --> 00:29:28,479 Speaker 1: run it as far as you can. You know, as 586 00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:30,920 Speaker 1: he put it, it's a Tuesday night against a team 587 00:29:30,960 --> 00:29:33,480 Speaker 1: trying to lose, and he's the only guy playing, which 588 00:29:33,520 --> 00:29:36,400 Speaker 1: is the point Rick Buker made with us yesterday, like, 589 00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:40,120 Speaker 1: there's your one star in the game, him and Alexander Sar, Right, 590 00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:42,600 Speaker 1: those are the two guys that played in this game 591 00:29:42,640 --> 00:29:46,520 Speaker 1: of any consequence. And for bam Adebayo career night again 592 00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:49,720 Speaker 1: twenty point a game, career score, thirty one in the 593 00:29:49,720 --> 00:29:51,920 Speaker 1: first quarter. It's like, all right, how far can we 594 00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:55,360 Speaker 1: take this thing? Yeah? Look, and so who cares? And 595 00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:57,520 Speaker 1: the end, when you say, oh, well, it wasn't basketball 596 00:29:57,600 --> 00:29:59,920 Speaker 1: because of the fouling and again of the free throw line, 597 00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:03,080 Speaker 1: the people would say the same thing, and do say 598 00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:05,160 Speaker 1: the same thing at the end of playoff games. Oh well, 599 00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:07,040 Speaker 1: that wasn't. All he did was foul at the end, 600 00:30:07,040 --> 00:30:09,840 Speaker 1: it was a foul of thought. That's not really basketball. No, 601 00:30:09,920 --> 00:30:11,800 Speaker 1: it's the same thing. It's the same thing. It's like 602 00:30:12,360 --> 00:30:14,240 Speaker 1: eric expulsion. The heat were damned if they did and 603 00:30:14,320 --> 00:30:16,280 Speaker 1: danned if they didn't, because if they didn't go for it. 604 00:30:16,360 --> 00:30:18,680 Speaker 1: The same people, the same the same people that pissed 605 00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:21,400 Speaker 1: me off on TV in the radio, would say, oh, 606 00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:24,160 Speaker 1: what's there exposed you're doing? Why is anybody else but 607 00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:26,760 Speaker 1: bam Adebayo taking a shot? Why is he not fouling 608 00:30:26,920 --> 00:30:28,720 Speaker 1: the Wizards to get the ball back? The guy's got 609 00:30:28,760 --> 00:30:30,920 Speaker 1: seventy seven points, he could get to any one. Same 610 00:30:30,960 --> 00:30:33,000 Speaker 1: people they would say, Okay, I'm just gonna pick the 611 00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:35,680 Speaker 1: other side of the argument. Sure, And that's what upsets 612 00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:37,400 Speaker 1: me about is that I don't think people really feel 613 00:30:37,400 --> 00:30:39,720 Speaker 1: that way. I think it's just, oh well, hey, eighty 614 00:30:39,760 --> 00:30:42,320 Speaker 1: three points. But no, I'm just mad for some reason, 615 00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:44,040 Speaker 1: because I want to be back, because I woke up 616 00:30:44,080 --> 00:30:46,120 Speaker 1: mad and I'm mad. I'm going to bed mad. I 617 00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:49,480 Speaker 1: want to be mad, mad, mad mad mad. Night's ridiculous, ridiculous. 618 00:30:49,600 --> 00:30:52,160 Speaker 1: Say again, we were in that small outlier of people 619 00:30:52,160 --> 00:30:54,960 Speaker 1: that weren't in the arena that watched the game, so 620 00:30:55,960 --> 00:30:59,120 Speaker 1: I felt perfectly validated. But if all you did was 621 00:30:59,160 --> 00:31:01,880 Speaker 1: box SCOREN saw the forty three and forty three and 622 00:31:01,920 --> 00:31:05,640 Speaker 1: now you're outraged, get over yourself.

I didn't say to be 959 00:48:11,440 --> 00:48:13,759 Speaker 1: fair for a long long time that he didn't have 960 00:48:13,800 --> 00:48:14,360 Speaker 1: the evidence. 961 00:48:15,000 --> 00:48:16,399 Speaker 4: But you had a lot of guys that can make 962 00:48:16,440 --> 00:48:18,920 Speaker 4: statements in the eighties. 963 00:48:19,080 --> 00:48:21,040 Speaker 1: Sure, but you know, we know this, and now here 964 00:48:21,040 --> 00:48:22,719 Speaker 1: he's able to say, no, I didn't know. Of course 965 00:48:22,760 --> 00:48:26,279 Speaker 1: you didn't know. You did not know, man, you didn't know. Now, 966 00:48:26,600 --> 00:48:29,239 Speaker 1: the only way I can see a way out of 967 00:48:29,239 --> 00:48:30,880 Speaker 1: this from Mark de Rosa, right, this is this is 968 00:48:30,880 --> 00:48:33,400 Speaker 1: the only way out of it because here, because everybody 969 00:48:33,440 --> 00:48:35,920 Speaker 1: knows that, Okay, he didn't know what they what they 970 00:48:35,920 --> 00:48:37,360 Speaker 1: need to do. He didn't know that they hadn't He 971 00:48:37,360 --> 00:48:39,400 Speaker 1: thought they had qualified, they hadn't. He didn't know what 972 00:48:39,400 --> 00:48:40,960 Speaker 1: they're even know how many games they had played in 973 00:48:40,960 --> 00:48:45,840 Speaker 1: the tournament. Okay, So that shows you, I can't believe 974 00:48:45,960 --> 00:48:49,640 Speaker 1: he's that obtuse to not know those things. So the 975 00:48:49,680 --> 00:48:53,439 Speaker 1: only thing I guess and and okay, I don't think 976 00:48:53,480 --> 00:48:57,200 Speaker 1: he's that obtuse to not understand what happened when he 977 00:48:57,239 --> 00:48:58,960 Speaker 1: said we had clinched, right, So I think I think 978 00:48:59,040 --> 00:49:01,759 Speaker 1: the whole mistake he made with we had clinched a 979 00:49:01,800 --> 00:49:04,400 Speaker 1: spot that was he did not know. And all you 980 00:49:04,440 --> 00:49:06,960 Speaker 1: do is ask somebody, aid was, ask somebody what's going on? 981 00:49:07,200 --> 00:49:08,680 Speaker 1: You just Hey, have we clinched? Do we not win? 982 00:49:09,040 --> 00:49:11,400 Speaker 1: Click on the internet. The internet will tell you if 983 00:49:11,440 --> 00:49:13,480 Speaker 1: you've clinched something or not. Hey, if we've bob moved on? 984 00:49:13,680 --> 00:49:15,600 Speaker 1: Do I have to talk to our director of transportation? 985 00:49:15,640 --> 00:49:16,600 Speaker 1: Do I got to talk to our director? 986 00:49:16,840 --> 00:49:16,920 Speaker 7: No? 987 00:49:16,920 --> 00:49:18,800 Speaker 1: But even in that moment as you're doing the interview, 988 00:49:18,840 --> 00:49:20,720 Speaker 1: you got a bunch of guys sitting around the days. 989 00:49:20,760 --> 00:49:22,880 Speaker 1: You got a bunch of researchers, a bunch of producers, 990 00:49:22,920 --> 00:49:25,560 Speaker 1: a bunch edited, and nobody checks it in that moment. 991 00:49:26,480 --> 00:49:29,120 Speaker 1: But here's this is where I'm going to go skip 992 00:49:29,440 --> 00:49:33,720 Speaker 1: because is that I really wonder Now, since this happened, 993 00:49:34,360 --> 00:49:37,080 Speaker 1: United States went lost to Italy. Now here they are 994 00:49:37,480 --> 00:49:41,360 Speaker 1: a little battered mentally going into this game against Canada, 995 00:49:41,600 --> 00:49:45,000 Speaker 1: they thought they were going to roll through the preliminary round, 996 00:49:45,280 --> 00:49:47,439 Speaker 1: and now here he is today saying I didn't say 997 00:49:47,440 --> 00:49:50,040 Speaker 1: it this our record was two and zero going in 998 00:49:50,080 --> 00:49:53,960 Speaker 1: when it wasn't. And honestly, I wonder if he's not 999 00:49:54,160 --> 00:49:58,280 Speaker 1: doing it now on purpose because he sees that because 1000 00:49:58,320 --> 00:50:00,279 Speaker 1: I want to give Mark de Rosa credit, you know, 1001 00:50:00,360 --> 00:50:03,200 Speaker 1: for being a little bit smarter than what he's shown 1002 00:50:03,280 --> 00:50:05,080 Speaker 1: the last couple of days, which is not at all, 1003 00:50:06,080 --> 00:50:08,839 Speaker 1: is that maybe he's doing it on purpose to take 1004 00:50:08,880 --> 00:50:11,000 Speaker 1: the pressure off of the United States because coaches will 1005 00:50:11,000 --> 00:50:13,120 Speaker 1: do that from time to time when they see, hey, 1006 00:50:13,560 --> 00:50:15,759 Speaker 1: our team, my team mentally is not where it needs 1007 00:50:15,800 --> 00:50:17,759 Speaker 1: to be, and I need to take the focus on this. 1008 00:50:17,840 --> 00:50:20,200 Speaker 1: And that's where you get a great coaching rant after 1009 00:50:20,280 --> 00:50:24,960 Speaker 1: a game, or the coach says something that's really controversial 1010 00:50:25,160 --> 00:50:27,920 Speaker 1: to put the focus on him and not on the team. 1011 00:50:28,040 --> 00:50:30,240 Speaker 1: Let the team practice and do their thing and mentally 1012 00:50:30,280 --> 00:50:32,200 Speaker 1: get ready to be able to play. I'll take all 1013 00:50:32,200 --> 00:50:34,839 Speaker 1: the arrows. I'll take all this right now. Because then 1014 00:50:34,880 --> 00:50:36,400 Speaker 1: going on the air today and doing that all the 1015 00:50:36,400 --> 00:50:38,120 Speaker 1: thing and he was really look the most of the 1016 00:50:38,160 --> 00:50:40,360 Speaker 1: stuff he said, it's very elitist about stuff. He was 1017 00:50:40,440 --> 00:50:43,360 Speaker 1: really stand offish. And just the fact that he said no, 1018 00:50:43,480 --> 00:50:46,040 Speaker 1: I didn't say, of course I knew we hadn't qualified. 1019 00:50:46,040 --> 00:50:49,200 Speaker 1: Now that's not what you said, man. I really want 1020 00:50:49,239 --> 00:50:50,520 Speaker 1: to give him the benefit of the doubt and think 1021 00:50:50,520 --> 00:50:53,520 Speaker 1: that maybe he's doing this now on purpose and taking 1022 00:50:53,560 --> 00:50:57,160 Speaker 1: all the spotlight because the team is in a tough spot. Man. 1023 00:50:57,200 --> 00:50:59,759 Speaker 1: I mean they just got thumped by Italy, right, I 1024 00:50:59,800 --> 00:51:02,680 Speaker 1: mean you you had you had you had you had 1025 00:51:02,719 --> 00:51:04,799 Speaker 1: players in Italy saying hey, welcome to the to the 1026 00:51:04,800 --> 00:51:07,480 Speaker 1: next round. United States, welcome to the next round. We're 1027 00:51:07,520 --> 00:51:09,719 Speaker 1: glad we could take you with us here. So yeah, 1028 00:51:09,760 --> 00:51:11,479 Speaker 1: I don't know that the United States in the best 1029 00:51:11,480 --> 00:51:14,600 Speaker 1: place mentally right now. If he's doing that, then that's 1030 00:51:14,600 --> 00:51:16,760 Speaker 1: a great that's a great strategy because we're talking about 1031 00:51:16,760 --> 00:51:19,160 Speaker 1: Mark de Rosa and and oh my god, dude, really, 1032 00:51:19,360 --> 00:51:21,279 Speaker 1: what's how do you not know any of this? You're 1033 00:51:21,320 --> 00:51:23,239 Speaker 1: only the manager of the team. You're only the guy 1034 00:51:23,280 --> 00:51:26,160 Speaker 1: talking to everybody doing all the immediate interviews. You should 1035 00:51:26,239 --> 00:51:28,719 Speaker 1: know this, right. Didn't talk to Herb brooks Ter in 1036 00:51:28,719 --> 00:51:30,680 Speaker 1: the Miracle on Ice in nineteen eighty and go, well, 1037 00:51:30,719 --> 00:51:32,479 Speaker 1: you know, are already seemed through to the we already 1038 00:51:32,520 --> 00:51:34,680 Speaker 1: won the gold medal. No, you have to beat Finland 1039 00:51:34,719 --> 00:51:37,160 Speaker 1: to win. No, we just beat Russia. Yeah, I'm sorry. 1040 00:51:37,280 --> 00:51:39,120 Speaker 1: I obviously I knew he had to beat Finland to 1041 00:51:39,160 --> 00:51:41,200 Speaker 1: win the gold medal. I mean, I mean I knew that. 1042 00:51:41,400 --> 00:51:42,960 Speaker 1: But you know we were two and oh going into that. 1043 00:51:43,000 --> 00:51:45,040 Speaker 1: Well you actually were four and oh? Right right right right? 1044 00:51:45,040 --> 00:51:47,680 Speaker 1: We're fourid okay, Like the coach needs to know. The 1045 00:51:47,719 --> 00:51:49,799 Speaker 1: coach has to know things like this. So I I 1046 00:51:49,920 --> 00:51:52,520 Speaker 1: really want just think thinking a little bit differently about it. 1047 00:51:52,719 --> 00:51:55,480 Speaker 1: He's doing it now on purpose to take that attention 1048 00:51:55,640 --> 00:51:57,120 Speaker 1: and to keep it away from the team. Well, it 1049 00:51:57,200 --> 00:51:59,480 Speaker 1: was like Danny Hurley continuing to say he never bumped 1050 00:51:59,520 --> 00:52:06,200 Speaker 1: that referee, which check the videotape anyway. For for this, 1051 00:52:06,280 --> 00:52:08,320 Speaker 1: I like that, you're giving him a lot of credit 1052 00:52:08,320 --> 00:52:10,680 Speaker 1: and that's great. Uh. The follow up question to really 1053 00:52:10,719 --> 00:52:12,920 Speaker 1: blow it blow his mind would have been the so 1054 00:52:13,040 --> 00:52:15,360 Speaker 1: does Clayton Kershaw have a nervous tick where in the 1055 00:52:15,360 --> 00:52:17,919 Speaker 1: eighth inning he gets up and just starts throwing riddle 1056 00:52:18,000 --> 00:52:21,960 Speaker 1: me that one batman. See who's response there is? And 1057 00:52:22,320 --> 00:52:25,839 Speaker 1: Kershaw will be done with the tournament here in short order. 1058 00:52:25,880 --> 00:52:28,960 Speaker 1: But all all that to say with DeRosa in this 1059 00:52:29,040 --> 00:52:33,040 Speaker 1: if you're not focused against Canada, uh, then like the 1060 00:52:33,239 --> 00:52:36,279 Speaker 1: level of buy in for all the players, and we 1061 00:52:36,360 --> 00:52:39,759 Speaker 1: can argue it. Some of the guys truly into it 1062 00:52:39,840 --> 00:52:42,360 Speaker 1: and inspired and wanting to make the most of it, 1063 00:52:42,400 --> 00:52:44,720 Speaker 1: from Paul's Skins on down. And then you got others 1064 00:52:45,080 --> 00:52:47,719 Speaker 1: that don't seem to care. Bryce Harper took a lot 1065 00:52:47,719 --> 00:52:51,160 Speaker 1: of heat just for saying the Olympics means more. I'm sorry, 1066 00:52:51,400 --> 00:52:54,279 Speaker 1: that's a that's a hot take. So you know, folks 1067 00:52:54,360 --> 00:52:56,600 Speaker 1: are just getting mad. It's kind of like the the 1068 00:52:56,640 --> 00:52:59,840 Speaker 1: Miami Ohio and it's like the bam Ada Bio. People 1069 00:52:59,880 --> 00:53:03,440 Speaker 1: just like to be mad. Yeah, man, And that's it 1070 00:53:03,480 --> 00:53:06,800 Speaker 1: from Mark Durosa. It's also the costanza you're not lying 1071 00:53:07,239 --> 00:53:09,480 Speaker 1: if you believe it's true. So in his head, he's 1072 00:53:09,520 --> 00:53:12,759 Speaker 1: just gonna stick to this line of thinking. And if 1073 00:53:12,800 --> 00:53:15,400 Speaker 1: someone keeps questioning it, it's like he asked and answered 1074 00:53:15,680 --> 00:53:17,759 Speaker 1: and he can go off the bully pulpit. I'm the 1075 00:53:17,800 --> 00:53:20,799 Speaker 1: I'm the manager of the squad right over it. I 1076 00:53:20,800 --> 00:53:23,680 Speaker 1: think that's kind of where he's at. Yeah, maybe he's 1077 00:53:23,719 --> 00:53:25,839 Speaker 1: smarter than all of us. I mean, I don't think 1078 00:53:25,840 --> 00:53:28,680 Speaker 1: so so did. Hiring Eric Hosmer means he's being fired 1079 00:53:28,680 --> 00:53:30,879 Speaker 1: because he didn't know the rules of engagement.
