12
00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:37,960
Speaker 2: of business last night. It was a rough first quarter,

13
00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:41,519
Speaker 2: but we're back baby, up to one. I love it.

14
00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:43,240
Speaker 2: It was a it was a good spring, good weekend

15
00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:46,159
Speaker 2: so far. Devil Derby action last night. Yeah, you know

16
00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:49,519
Speaker 2: the Derby. I don't know of a sporting that where

17
00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:51,440
Speaker 2: you wait like so long and then it's just like

18
00:00:51,520 --> 00:00:55,600
Speaker 2: it's just done. Okay. Oh well, huh the horses ran cool,

19
00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:59,240
Speaker 2: all right? Everyone back to back to scheduled life. But uh,

20
00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:02,200
Speaker 2: those majestic beasts were rumbling down the track. Yesterday.

21
00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:04,319
Speaker 1: I do want to say one thing before we get

22
00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:07,200
Speaker 1: rocking and rolling here? Did you hear the wonderful update

23
00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:08,920
Speaker 1: at the top of the hour with the golden tones

24
00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:11,680
Speaker 1: of Brian Fenley joins us? He joins us today and

25
00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:13,800
Speaker 1: we're honored to have Brian Finley here.

26
00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:16,800
Speaker 2: The red sauce put the white sox in the chipper.

27
00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:19,040
Speaker 3: Wooer the wood chipper.

28
00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:20,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, and the woodchipper. We love it.

29
00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:24,880
Speaker 4: Usually, usually any your reds are going into the woodschipper.

30
00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:27,840
Speaker 4: But the actually one, which was a total surprise to everyone.

31
00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:30,240
Speaker 1: The Reds are the wood chipper. Really, I know that's

32
00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:32,000
Speaker 1: why you did it. It's okay, you're making me feel good,

33
00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:33,880
Speaker 1: but that's you're setting me up for something. And I'll

34
00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:35,759
Speaker 1: wait for that. But you go back to the derby

35
00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:37,880
Speaker 1: for a second. I mean, no, one hundred and fifty

36
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:40,720
Speaker 1: thousand people there, I go. I've been to the derby

37
00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:43,440
Speaker 1: several times. I live in Kentucky. It's like an event,

38
00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:46,720
Speaker 1: it's like it's a religion. Really, but seven horses have

39
00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:49,760
Speaker 1: died at Churchill Down since the twenty seventh of April,

40
00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:51,360
Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, what happens out of the

41
00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:53,880
Speaker 1: woolwork comes Peter, they say they should cancel a Derby

42
00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:56,960
Speaker 1: shut down, Churchill downs. Those horses are treated fairly well,

43
00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:59,840
Speaker 1: they really are. They eat well, they're trained well. I

44
00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:02,440
Speaker 1: think it was a track situation, maybe the surface of

45
00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:05,040
Speaker 1: the track. I don't really know exactly. I don't think

46
00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:07,680
Speaker 1: anybody else does exactly what happened yet, but it was

47
00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:11,160
Speaker 1: a shame that it happened prior to the biggest day

48
00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:13,480
Speaker 1: really besides the British Cup of Thoroughbred Racing.

49
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:17,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, and two were unfortunately euthanized yesterday right after two

50
00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:22,160
Speaker 2: earlier races. Because there's know, there's twelve races yesterday at

51
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:25,560
Speaker 2: at the track, and the one that we watch at

52
00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:27,639
Speaker 2: seven o'clock eastern is the final one of the day.

53
00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:31,480
Speaker 2: That's the race twelve. There's there's there's again, there's twelve

54
00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:34,480
Speaker 2: races the entire day. The thing that has always surprised

55
00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:38,080
Speaker 2: me about about the the unfortunate situation where where the

56
00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:41,679
Speaker 2: horses pass away is like, we have all this technology

57
00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:45,920
Speaker 2: in medicine and in sports and obviously the combination of

58
00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:49,400
Speaker 2: both now and there's no way for the horse to

59
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:51,359
Speaker 2: let after they break it, after they break a leg,

60
00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:53,440
Speaker 2: like they're just like we don't have any technology now

61
00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:56,760
Speaker 2: for a horse to it might sound, this might sound

62
00:02:57,160 --> 00:03:01,040
Speaker 2: very not anything to say. I don't follow horse racing

63
00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:03,399
Speaker 2: and don't follow horses. I grew up in Los Angeles,

64
00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:05,880
Speaker 2: I live in the middle of city. Now I've been

65
00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:07,840
Speaker 2: on one horse my entire life. I'm too fat to

66
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:10,040
Speaker 2: be in a horse. I don't know any about horses.

67
00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:14,400
Speaker 2: But like we don't have the technology medical technology to

68
00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:17,760
Speaker 2: like horses can live after they break their legs. I

69
00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:21,280
Speaker 2: just that Andy has been the most surprising me. Not

70
00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:24,679
Speaker 2: that the horses have to be put down. I get

71
00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:28,360
Speaker 2: the reasoning behind it, but like they can't live with

72
00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:29,079
Speaker 2: a broken leg.

73
00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:31,040
Speaker 1: You can't put as on them, and you hit it

74
00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:33,760
Speaker 1: right on the head. Because look, I worked the various racetracks,

75
00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:35,480
Speaker 1: but believe me, I'm not a vet. I don't know

76
00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:37,560
Speaker 1: the inner workings of a horse. I was the pr

77
00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:39,760
Speaker 1: guy of various tracks. But I do know that the

78
00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:42,920
Speaker 1: most important part of a horse is its legs, and

79
00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:46,000
Speaker 1: if he can't have his legs functioning, they'll put him down.

80
00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:48,160
Speaker 1: But rather than living in pain, it's been it to

81
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:49,000
Speaker 1: euthanize the horse.

82
00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:52,000
Speaker 2: That's get I get the reasoning behind that, But my

83
00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:55,800
Speaker 2: question is we haven't come up with a medical technology

84
00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:57,720
Speaker 2: to help a horse with a broken leg yet.

85
00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:00,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a good point there. But the most the

86
00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:02,520
Speaker 1: most depressing thing you see at a race track, and

87
00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:04,640
Speaker 1: I've seen it several times, is when in fact they

88
00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:06,800
Speaker 1: do put the horse down, they come out with a

89
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:10,000
Speaker 1: little a truck and covered up with a curtain. Then

90
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:12,440
Speaker 1: they just drive them out. It's just there's got to

91
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:14,280
Speaker 1: be a better way for doing that as well. It's

92
00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:16,600
Speaker 1: just it's depressing, it really is. He just don't want

93
00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:17,040
Speaker 1: to see it.

94
00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:19,360
Speaker 2: And that happened a couple of years ago after one

95
00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:21,640
Speaker 2: of the bigger races right where they had to bring

96
00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:27,760
Speaker 2: the on the on the as equine ambulance, the horse

97
00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:33,120
Speaker 2: ambulance onto the track. Yeah. Look, obviously I understood. I

98
00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:35,599
Speaker 2: saw the tweet yesterday before the race about the seventh

99
00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:39,520
Speaker 2: the seventh horse basically passing away this week, and I

100
00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:41,920
Speaker 2: did see there was someone got suspended I think for

101
00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:44,839
Speaker 2: some of the treatment of of two of the horses.

102
00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:48,119
Speaker 2: But it is a jarring number, right, You're like seven

103
00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:51,880
Speaker 2: horses because you expect one or two maybe, especially as

104
00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:55,960
Speaker 2: you mentioned, once they break their legs there there there,

105
00:04:56,720 --> 00:04:59,280
Speaker 2: they can't live, you know. A good life and it's

106
00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:01,880
Speaker 2: a painful life, but it was. It was a pretty

107
00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:05,720
Speaker 2: jarring number though, seven, Like especially when you again, like

108
00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:08,919
Speaker 2: this is a world class track and you have the

109
00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:10,640
Speaker 2: best of the trainers and you have the best of

110
00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:12,880
Speaker 2: the owners. You share the best of the horses right now.

111
00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:16,159
Speaker 2: And to see seven put down, I get there was

112
00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:18,640
Speaker 2: there's one. I saw one, you know, fell down and

113
00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:21,880
Speaker 2: heard it snack, and I get their accents happened, but

114
00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:24,359
Speaker 2: it was pretty jarring to see number seven though, Andy, Like,

115
00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:25,680
Speaker 2: there's a lot of horses in a week.

116
00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:28,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I'm not, if I'm not mistaken, I think

117
00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:30,640
Speaker 1: several years ago they had a similar situation at Santaannita

118
00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:31,400
Speaker 1: in California.

119
00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:37,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I am, I am. I am waiting for

120
00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:42,120
Speaker 2: that day when there becomes a push to outlaw the

121
00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:43,200
Speaker 2: horse racing because of this.

122
00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:46,080
Speaker 1: No, no, Jeff, No.

123
00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:48,680
Speaker 2: I'm not. I'm not advocating for it. I'm saying that

124
00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:51,880
Speaker 2: I'm surprised there's not a larger push for that, and

125
00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:55,600
Speaker 2: I don't like in all in other sports, there's such

126
00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:59,080
Speaker 2: a big outrage anytime someone you know, ta takua ba loa.

127
00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:02,040
Speaker 2: Obviously we saw the you know, the head injuries that

128
00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:03,960
Speaker 2: he went through last year. It's like, you know, there's

129
00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:08,120
Speaker 2: this outrage about football and the way that football, you know,

130
00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:10,640
Speaker 2: the way that football protects its players and do they

131
00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:13,120
Speaker 2: do enough and should do or retire should they ever

132
00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:15,719
Speaker 2: play again? But like you know, it's obviously the NFL

133
00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:18,320
Speaker 2: is not horse racing and horses out the NFL, so

134
00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:20,960
Speaker 2: there's there's less coverage of it. But you know, anytime

135
00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:23,240
Speaker 2: there's a major injury out down in the NFL, there's

136
00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:25,120
Speaker 2: always talk about, you know, concussions and what is the

137
00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:28,200
Speaker 2: NFL doing enough? And I feel like with this story,

138
00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:31,920
Speaker 2: it's like this, like, yeah, it happened, that's unfortunate, and

139
00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:32,800
Speaker 2: everyone moves on.

140
00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:34,560
Speaker 1: You know what, you hit it right on the head.

141
00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:37,240
Speaker 1: It's still about exposure because the NFL has tremendous exposure.

142
00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:39,320
Speaker 1: Is the number one sport in America, it really is,

143
00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:43,000
Speaker 1: and when something serious happens in that sport, everybody takes

144
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:45,080
Speaker 1: a step back and say, let's do something about it.

145
00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:48,760
Speaker 1: Racing basically is an afterthought except on Derby Day or

146
00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:52,240
Speaker 1: maybe Britus Cup. And now, which what happened yesterday at

147
00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:55,280
Speaker 1: Churchill Downs that may start a movement. I don't think

148
00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:57,840
Speaker 1: they're going to ban racing. But if you took look

149
00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:01,440
Speaker 1: at what Pete has done to Ring Brother's circus. They

150
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:04,960
Speaker 1: outlawed the animals. There were no more animals in the circus.

151
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:07,120
Speaker 1: It's crazy what they've done, right, I don't know if

152
00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:07,480
Speaker 1: I don't.

153
00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:09,279
Speaker 2: Know if Peta did that. I mean I think that

154
00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:13,440
Speaker 2: just society in general, you know, like that, like my kids,

155
00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:15,440
Speaker 2: I don't think of any interest in seeing something like that.

156
00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:17,920
Speaker 2: I think it's more just like just a society in

157
00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:20,600
Speaker 2: general than it does. And then it's like, didn did

158
00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:24,080
Speaker 2: Pena do anything about it? But yeah, again, I mean

159
00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:25,560
Speaker 2: the I think the Derby, you know, for a lot

160
00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:29,800
Speaker 2: of us, it's just you know, horse racing, especially if

161
00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:31,720
Speaker 2: you want to wager on the horses the ponies. It's

162
00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:34,760
Speaker 2: really hard obviously, and it's one of the things where

163
00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:37,680
Speaker 2: it's just hard to get into from scratch. So if

164
00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:40,320
Speaker 2: you decide to, you know, I want to watch the

165
00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:43,080
Speaker 2: Derby great, like we watched it last night. I put

166
00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:46,040
Speaker 2: it on. I watched the whole two minutes looking.

167
00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:48,760
Speaker 1: For you with Aaron Rodgers.

168
00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:52,000
Speaker 2: Yeah no, that's not for me. But yeah, I don't

169
00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:53,800
Speaker 2: know anything about the horses. I don't know anything about

170
00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:55,600
Speaker 2: the jockeys. I just watched it because it's a fun,

171
00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:57,880
Speaker 2: you know, sports thing to do. And I think that's

172
00:07:57,880 --> 00:08:00,880
Speaker 2: a hard part about you know, why it doesn't get

173
00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:02,920
Speaker 2: more coverage obviously, is you just you don't pay I

174
00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:04,800
Speaker 2: know nothing about the horses. I don't know anything about

175
00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:08,240
Speaker 2: the jockeys. Yeah, I sort of get I sort of

176
00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:10,720
Speaker 2: get strategy of how you know, of how the races

177
00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:13,600
Speaker 2: get get run. Especially afterwards. They do good job explaining

178
00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:19,120
Speaker 2: what happens and you know, and so again for two minutes,

179
00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:22,360
Speaker 2: it's pretty fun to watch. Otherwise I don't really watch

180
00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:24,720
Speaker 2: much of even the lead up to the race.

181
00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:26,880
Speaker 1: It was amazing to me. Man, they had like the

182
00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:29,520
Speaker 1: seven eight hours coverage on NBC, Yes today, and there's

183
00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:31,440
Speaker 1: some decent features. I had the TV on. I know,

184
00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:33,559
Speaker 1: if watching a little bit as in and out of

185
00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:36,480
Speaker 1: watching NBA basketball. But you know, you're right, it's a

186
00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:38,400
Speaker 1: big day. It's a it's more of a it's a

187
00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:40,800
Speaker 1: party atmosphere because I would think that the majority of

188
00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:43,280
Speaker 1: the people that go there are are in your shoes,

189
00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:45,320
Speaker 1: they don't know much about racing on the jockeys, but

190
00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:47,240
Speaker 1: they are a party. Did the women go there, they

191
00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:49,480
Speaker 1: dress to the nines. Oh yeah, they're drinking and that's

192
00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:49,959
Speaker 1: what they do.

193
00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:52,079
Speaker 2: I mean, my wife wants to go in the worst way,

194
00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:53,840
Speaker 2: Like she wants to go, like just to wear the

195
00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:56,040
Speaker 2: hat and drink them in julybs. Like she cannot, like

196
00:08:57,360 --> 00:08:59,199
Speaker 2: she wants to go, like really really.

197
00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:02,640
Speaker 1: You know what this plan? Maybe we'll go next year, Maybe.

198
00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:04,600
Speaker 2: There we'll go. I mean, she would love to go.

199
00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:08,280
Speaker 2: It's like a dream of hers to go. You know,

200
00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:11,640
Speaker 2: they have a steeple chase event here in Charlotte, and

201
00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:13,880
Speaker 2: we went. She went, not we she went two weeks ago.

202
00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:17,040
Speaker 2: She had the best time, Like she loves being out

203
00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:19,920
Speaker 2: in public and dressing up and having a good time.

204
00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:24,760
Speaker 2: So but yeah, I I I work with Fox Sports

205
00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:26,360
Speaker 2: at Fox Sports Radio, and I had to write an

206
00:09:26,440 --> 00:09:29,480
Speaker 2: article this week for the Derby. They wanted me to

207
00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:32,760
Speaker 2: help with some of the coverage, and so I asked around.

208
00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:34,840
Speaker 2: I asked some of my my gambling friends, Hey, how

209
00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:36,560
Speaker 2: do I how do I wager on the Derby? Like

210
00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:38,240
Speaker 2: how do you do it? If you're someone like me?

211
00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:41,920
Speaker 2: Who I know how the you know, the super effect

212
00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:44,040
Speaker 2: doesn't exact us. I know how it works, but for

213
00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:46,200
Speaker 2: most of us, like we have no idea what we're

214
00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:48,080
Speaker 2: doing when it comes to the ponies, right, like like

215
00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:50,600
Speaker 2: tell me how to tell me? Tell me a strategy

216
00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:55,760
Speaker 2: on how to wager on the horses. And Bill Krakenberg,

217
00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:58,679
Speaker 2: who we did a show Sunday mornings for for Fox

218
00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:01,040
Speaker 2: Sports Radio during the football s and he came up

219
00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:03,280
Speaker 2: with a strategy and he gave me a strategy and

220
00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:05,440
Speaker 2: it worked. I won two of my three wager yesterday,

221
00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:08,640
Speaker 2: so I came. I came out positive in the Derby.

222
00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:12,720
Speaker 2: How about that? Okay? So the strategy is basically you

223
00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:14,800
Speaker 2: have to you try to wait till close to post

224
00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:18,079
Speaker 2: time and you see you do you bet head to

225
00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:21,440
Speaker 2: head matchups? Okay, you bet head to head matchups. So

226
00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:25,160
Speaker 2: Horse A versus Horse B. What you do is you

227
00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:29,680
Speaker 2: look at the odds to win the race. So let's

228
00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:32,679
Speaker 2: say Horse A is that like the odds is like

229
00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:35,360
Speaker 2: three to one, and Horse B the odds are five

230
00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:40,080
Speaker 2: to one. Yet Horse B is either even money to

231
00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:42,760
Speaker 2: beat Horse A or a little bit of a slight favorite.

232
00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:46,040
Speaker 2: You take Horse A. You follow my lodger, and you

233
00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:47,800
Speaker 2: take Horse A because they have the better odds to

234
00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:50,200
Speaker 2: win the race. Therefore they should have the better odds

235
00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:52,280
Speaker 2: in a head to head matchup against a horse with

236
00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:56,240
Speaker 2: warse odds to win the race. I did that, yeah,

237
00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:58,920
Speaker 2: and I won two of three because it makes sense, right,

238
00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:00,960
Speaker 2: Like they that's a that's a that's a that's an error,

239
00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:03,120
Speaker 2: by the by the book, by the book. If you

240
00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:06,640
Speaker 2: have a head to head matchup, the person the horse

241
00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:08,160
Speaker 2: with the better I was to win the race should

242
00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:09,040
Speaker 2: be the favorite.

243
00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:12,000
Speaker 1: Right right. But it's funny because most people will get

244
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:13,720
Speaker 1: a copy of the Daily Racing Form and look at

245
00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:16,280
Speaker 1: the past performances and the speed of a horse and

246
00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:19,160
Speaker 1: where they have raced prior to Churchill downs. Have they

247
00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:21,679
Speaker 1: raced that distance? You know, the distance of the derby

248
00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:23,880
Speaker 1: as opposed to other distances. Oh yeah, six for long

249
00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:24,120
Speaker 1: a mile.

250
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:27,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, but I don't have time for that. Like I

251
00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:30,480
Speaker 2: can't just do that. Like another buddy of mine hit

252
00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:33,280
Speaker 2: he hit a thing with a bobber. He bet fifty

253
00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:37,160
Speaker 2: bucks one ninety thousand yesterday on race four, Like I know,

254
00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:40,000
Speaker 2: I can't believe it, Like I don't know. He showed

255
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:41,560
Speaker 2: me his ticket. I was like, what does this even mean?

256
00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:43,640
Speaker 2: I don't know any of this stuff means with L one,

257
00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:47,920
Speaker 2: L two four horses here three horses. I don't pay attention. So,

258
00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:50,040
Speaker 2: like I said, but we want it on the action, right,

259
00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:51,600
Speaker 2: you want in on the action. It's it's a fun

260
00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:54,080
Speaker 2: two minutes everyone. I had a weird people over last

261
00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:55,760
Speaker 2: night for a little that way in our house. We

262
00:11:55,880 --> 00:11:57,400
Speaker 2: put the Derby on. Everyone's like, who do you got?

263
00:11:57,400 --> 00:11:59,200
Speaker 2: Who do you who? You wager on who? And everyone's

264
00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:01,920
Speaker 2: talking about it? Right, That makes part of sports fun,

265
00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:03,199
Speaker 2: right when you wage it really does that.

266
00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:04,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, we went to a derby party.

267
00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:08,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, but like, have no idea. I just I have

268
00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:10,800
Speaker 2: three head to heads. Here they are. I looked them up.

269
00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:12,480
Speaker 2: I had two fills in one of them. The two

270
00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:15,920
Speaker 2: fills finished second, right, I bet against one of them.

271
00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:18,599
Speaker 2: The matchups was against match match obviously one that was

272
00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:21,000
Speaker 2: so that was a dumb wager. And then my third

273
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:23,800
Speaker 2: one was like a matchup of like two long shots.

274
00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:25,720
Speaker 2: It was the odds were messed up on that one,

275
00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:28,240
Speaker 2: so you find a little market inefficiency. And I had

276
00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:30,040
Speaker 2: a couple of wagers on the race and it was good.

277
00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:32,120
Speaker 2: It was fun, Like that's part of watching the Derby.

278
00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:34,800
Speaker 1: Is that's great that you did that because basically the

279
00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:37,800
Speaker 1: so called experts, you know, the ones that they picked,

280
00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:40,120
Speaker 1: did finish way out of the money that really, I

281
00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:43,840
Speaker 1: think Reincarnated was actually like fifty two lengths behind, and

282
00:12:43,880 --> 00:12:45,480
Speaker 1: those are some of the winners that they had picked.

283
00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:46,680
Speaker 1: So cold experts.

284
00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:49,680
Speaker 2: It's funny Reincarnate is. I wrote this article on Thursday

285
00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:52,400
Speaker 2: and kind of updated Reencarnate was forty to one and

286
00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:55,959
Speaker 2: finished went off at thirteen to one. They horse came

287
00:12:56,000 --> 00:13:00,079
Speaker 2: way down fast. But you know, sports wagering makes the

288
00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:04,000
Speaker 2: derby more fun, right, It's part of the fun of it.

289
00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:07,280
Speaker 2: But it feels like it's such a crapshoot, right, man, Like,

290
00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:11,520
Speaker 2: how do you know the horse is gonna run? I mean,

291
00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:13,440
Speaker 2: earlier in the week fourte I was reading up. He

292
00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:15,839
Speaker 2: looked the horse, he's I think they're all She's right,

293
00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:18,480
Speaker 2: she looked great, right, she was like prants on her

294
00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:21,520
Speaker 2: toes and looking good and then all of a sudden scratched.

295
00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:24,480
Speaker 1: So you never know, man, you really don't know. Day Ago,

296
00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:27,160
Speaker 1: I tell you, I really enjoyed this conversation with you

297
00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:29,480
Speaker 1: talking about the Derby. I didn't think we'd stay.

298
00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:32,800
Speaker 2: With Hey, my boss told me, you know what, I

299
00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:35,120
Speaker 2: want you to participate in the Derby this year. I said,

300
00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:38,000
Speaker 2: you got it, boss, I figured I figured it out. Man,

301
00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:41,679
Speaker 2: so I've paid paid attention. I luckily, you know, I

302
00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:43,360
Speaker 2: had a lot of fun doing a Sunday show with

303
00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:45,679
Speaker 2: with you, obviously, but it's going to have a resource

304
00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:47,960
Speaker 2: like crack to help with with some with some wagering

305
00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:51,000
Speaker 2: ideas because my man makes uh you know.

306
00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:52,960
Speaker 1: Well, well now they're going to come back with you

310
00:13:57,440 --> 00:14:00,080
Speaker 2: do that same thing I'm gonna because I do so

311
00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:02,280
Speaker 2: I follow close enough, folck. I do know that. You know,

312
00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:05,640
Speaker 2: like horses that win the Derbok, all three races are different, right,

313
00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:06,960
Speaker 2: the Derby, the Preakness, and.

314
00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:08,200
Speaker 1: The distances is different.

315
00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:11,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, so like horses that win the Derby might not

316
00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:13,280
Speaker 2: even run in the rest of the races, Like that

317
00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:15,280
Speaker 2: doesn't matter at all. So like it's a different, whole

318
00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:15,800
Speaker 2: different race.

336
00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:08,720
Speaker 1: Jeff about former NFL quarterback Cam Newton. He was on

337
00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:11,560
Speaker 1: the Undefined podcast the other day. He suggested that his

338
00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:15,000
Speaker 1: ongoing NFL employment could be related to the length of

339
00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:17,640
Speaker 1: his hair. Does does he realize that no one cares

340
00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:19,960
Speaker 1: about hair length and sports and all about what you

341
00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:21,520
Speaker 1: could do for me and can you win? That's what

342
00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:23,840
Speaker 1: it's all about. Look at Trevor Lawrence, right.

343
00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:27,480
Speaker 2: It's just it's he just can't play football at the

344
00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:30,840
Speaker 2: level that he needs to play to be NFL quarterback.

345
00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:34,840
Speaker 2: It's all that this is about man. NFL teams, dude,

346
00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:38,080
Speaker 2: they don't take anyone who could help them win.

347
00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:42,920
Speaker 1: What you look like, they don't care what your record

348
00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:44,960
Speaker 1: is it bother.

349
00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:48,840
Speaker 2: They don't care. Yeah, they don't care, you know, and

350
00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:52,960
Speaker 2: you know sometimes to unfortunately they don't care to your

351
00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:58,080
Speaker 2: point about your your your your rap sheet. Sometimes they

352
00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:01,800
Speaker 2: don't care about your politics. Can you help them win

353
00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:04,880
Speaker 2: football games? Like this has been shown over and over again,

354
00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:10,320
Speaker 2: and you know it, he just can't do that right

355
00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:13,640
Speaker 2: now at the level that here's the thing. So he

356
00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:18,400
Speaker 2: made a comment recently, Cam did about he's better than

357
00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:23,080
Speaker 2: X amount of starting quarterbacks the NFL, and he's absolutely right, No, no,

358
00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:27,120
Speaker 2: no disagreement there. But he comes down to to like,

359
00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:30,320
Speaker 2: what what does he want from his career and what

360
00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:38,280
Speaker 2: do the NFL teams want because you know he's not

361
00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:41,800
Speaker 2: like Cam is not up for that those jobs, like

362
00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:45,960
Speaker 2: Cam is not let's say before the draft, right, like

363
00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:50,560
Speaker 2: Cam is not up for the Texans job because the

364
00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:56,320
Speaker 2: Texans don't need Cam per se right, Like they're trying

365
00:16:56,360 --> 00:17:00,240
Speaker 2: to sort of stink to get a quarterback right, you

366
00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:02,880
Speaker 2: know a place like you know, like, is Cam better

367
00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:07,520
Speaker 2: than Sam Hall in Washington? Yeah he is, but of

368
00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:12,240
Speaker 2: course Romanvera has done Cam Newton before, like he he doesn't.

369
00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:15,719
Speaker 2: He doesn't want to just go nine and eight with

370
00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:20,640
Speaker 2: Cam Newton. They're hoping that Sam how becomes the next

371
00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:23,600
Speaker 2: franchise quarterbacks, like Cam is not really up for that job.

372
00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:27,240
Speaker 2: You know, is Cam Newton better than you know, whatever

373
00:17:27,280 --> 00:17:30,800
Speaker 2: Arizona's gonna put out there this year with a Kyler

374
00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:35,640
Speaker 2: Murray Hurt. Absolutely he is. But again it is does

375
00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:37,560
Speaker 2: Cam want to sign a one year deal with the

376
00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:41,000
Speaker 2: Cardinals knowing that whatever he does, they're gonna drive Killa

377
00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:44,840
Speaker 2: Williams next season? And again Arizona is trying to be

378
00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:48,000
Speaker 2: bad to get Killer Williams next year, right like Cam is? Yeah,

379
00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:51,239
Speaker 2: he is absolutely correct. He is better than a lot

380
00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:54,119
Speaker 2: of starting quarterbacks NFL right now, but he's not really

381
00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:57,800
Speaker 2: up for that job. There's this you have to understand

382
00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:00,600
Speaker 2: when you get to a certain age the NFL, there

383
00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:06,359
Speaker 2: is like you kind of surpass like a job like

384
00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:10,199
Speaker 2: you're too qualified for like a lower level position. You

385
00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:14,800
Speaker 2: make too much money and you're too qualified and the company,

386
00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:17,199
Speaker 2: the NFL team is not going to hire you for

387
00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:21,320
Speaker 2: that job. It's the most it's the most frustrating thing

388
00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:23,240
Speaker 2: that bothered me about the way we the way people

389
00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:26,640
Speaker 2: talk about Colin Kaepernick, because when they said he absolutely

390
00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:29,080
Speaker 2: got blackballed, he should have been a start quarterback NFL

391
00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:31,320
Speaker 2: at least should have been you know, a started for someone,

392
00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:35,560
Speaker 2: right or a high level backup. But that's besides the point.

393
00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:38,240
Speaker 2: But people would always say, you know, when someone a

394
00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:41,280
Speaker 2: thirstry quarterback signed, Jeff Schwartz signed a quarterback for for

395
00:18:41,359 --> 00:18:44,879
Speaker 2: the for for the Chiefs, how does he have a

396
00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:48,080
Speaker 2: job at quarterback? And Colin Kaepernick doesn't because CAP's not

397
00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:51,000
Speaker 2: up for that job. He's not up for third string

398
00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:55,280
Speaker 2: quarterback on the Chiefs, right like he's up for starting

399
00:18:55,359 --> 00:18:58,040
Speaker 2: quarterback in the NFL. Cam Newton is up for starting

400
00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:01,119
Speaker 2: quarterback in the NFL. He's not up for for for

401
00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:04,600
Speaker 2: backup in the NFL. It's not up for starting quarterback

402
00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:07,080
Speaker 2: on bad team in the NFL. That's not what he's

403
00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:10,320
Speaker 2: that's not his. He's not he's not up for that job.

404
00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:13,639
Speaker 2: Right in my life, you know, I see someone like

405
00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:15,760
Speaker 2: you know, they get a job calling a game and

406
00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:17,720
Speaker 2: someone's like, well, why don't you call games, Jeff, I'm like,

407
00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:19,560
Speaker 2: I'm not up for that job. I'm not up for

408
00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:21,840
Speaker 2: the I'm not I'm not I'm not up for the

409
00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:24,040
Speaker 2: job of calling a football game right now. I'm not.

410
00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:26,520
Speaker 2: I'm not qualified for that job. Right now. Cam is

411
00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:29,320
Speaker 2: overqualified for a lot of these starting jobs in the

412
00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:31,760
Speaker 2: NFL that he's better than those quarterbacks. I'm with him

413
00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:34,199
Speaker 2: on that, So like complaining about that to me, and

414
00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:36,360
Speaker 2: he knows this. By the way I think he knows

415
00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:41,160
Speaker 2: this is it doesn't really do anything for me, because,

416
00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:43,080
Speaker 2: like Caim, you know that you're not really up for

417
00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:46,359
Speaker 2: the Cardinals starting quarterback job, like you're you're not getting

418
00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:48,840
Speaker 2: they don't want you because they want to stink this season.

419
00:19:49,320 --> 00:19:52,360
Speaker 1: Right, No, you're right, I'm with you. Hey, I think

420
00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:55,040
Speaker 1: he's good enough to be on an NFL roster, but

421
00:19:55,080 --> 00:19:57,480
Speaker 1: he will not embrace what it means to be a backup.

422
00:19:57,480 --> 00:19:59,439
Speaker 2: But Andy, but like, but here's the thing, though, if

423
00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:03,160
Speaker 2: you're Kim, though, why would you even want Like you know, again,

424
00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:06,560
Speaker 2: you're not he's not up for backup quarterback job. But

425
00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:12,280
Speaker 2: that's not what He's overqualified for that position, right And

426
00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:15,320
Speaker 2: he doesn't want that job either, Like he doesn't want

427
00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:17,760
Speaker 2: to make two million dollars to be a backup quarterback.

428
00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:21,360
Speaker 2: So I just hate how we talk about this sometimes

429
00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:27,399
Speaker 2: because those are again like he's he didn't for those jobs,

430
00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:32,040
Speaker 2: so we should stop talking about it, like like Kim's

431
00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:34,760
Speaker 2: getting screwed by the NFL. He ain't because he's not

432
00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:36,600
Speaker 2: up for those He's not up for backup jobs. He's

433
00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:41,440
Speaker 2: not up for job on bad on bad team. So yeah, look,

434
00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:45,120
Speaker 2: I don't know the the care comment is what it is.

435
00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:46,080
Speaker 2: I don't.

436
00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:49,480
Speaker 1: I just it really is. I mean, look, if they're

437
00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:52,160
Speaker 1: gonna take people that have been arrested, I mean then

438
00:20:52,359 --> 00:20:54,800
Speaker 1: the hair is a secondary thing and no one cares

439
00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:56,480
Speaker 1: about hair. If you could, if you could win for

440
00:20:56,600 --> 00:20:59,080
Speaker 1: my team, if you could go out there and get

441
00:20:59,080 --> 00:21:02,040
Speaker 1: me a championship, I don't care if you have no teeth.

442
00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:04,360
Speaker 1: I mean, I saw the guy they drafted the other day, right,

443
00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:06,560
Speaker 1: he had two front teeth were missing.

444
00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:10,560
Speaker 2: The North Dakota State Here.

445
00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:12,080
Speaker 1: He's going to be a hero. People be wearing T

446
00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:14,080
Speaker 1: shirts with all over the place.

447
00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:16,280
Speaker 2: He had to gain like eighty pounds, but offensive line.

448
00:21:16,320 --> 00:21:18,520
Speaker 2: Now he's like got long red hair. The Bucks draft

449
00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:22,080
Speaker 2: of the Bucks have a two redheads on the offensive line.

450
00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:24,160
Speaker 2: That's that's gonna be fun to watch.

451
00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:26,760
Speaker 1: I love that really. Yeah, I touch on for a

452
00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:30,399
Speaker 1: second here. Lamar Jackson, certainly he's back, he's playing, and

453
00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:33,080
Speaker 1: now he says he wants to throw for six thousand yards.

454
00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:36,600
Speaker 1: That's not his game. His game is his legs. Why

455
00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:37,760
Speaker 1: would he even come out and say he want to

456
00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:40,119
Speaker 1: throw for six thousand yards. I don't understand people, I

457
00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:40,720
Speaker 1: really don't.

458
00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:41,399
Speaker 5: So.

459
00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:44,440
Speaker 2: Todd Munkin is a new offensive coordinator. He's going to

460
00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:47,400
Speaker 2: have a more pro style offense. They're going to pass

461
00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:49,879
Speaker 2: the ball more. You know, Todd Munkins was at Georgia

462
00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:52,440
Speaker 2: the last couple of years, saw how well the offense did.

463
00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:56,800
Speaker 2: It's so funny, you know, Like you know, for months

464
00:21:56,880 --> 00:21:59,320
Speaker 2: we talked about Lamar and Baltimore. In the end of

465
00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:01,240
Speaker 2: the most obvious this didn't happen, right, which is the

466
00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:04,240
Speaker 2: Lamar was going back to Baltimore, which we all sort

467
00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:08,119
Speaker 2: of thought would happen in the end. Yeah, I mean,

468
00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:09,760
Speaker 2: I think they're gonna try to throw the ball more

469
00:22:09,800 --> 00:22:12,600
Speaker 2: this year. That's why they brought in Todd Monkin to

470
00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:15,480
Speaker 2: change the offense. You know, Todd monkey In the last

471
00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:17,240
Speaker 2: two years at Georgia had sets in Bennett like they

472
00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:19,119
Speaker 2: weren't running the ball at the quarterback. They're passing the

473
00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:22,680
Speaker 2: ball bringing Zay Flowers. You have Odell now, So six

474
00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:27,359
Speaker 2: thousand yards obviously feels ambitious. Not gonna happen, But I

475
00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:29,320
Speaker 2: think that's just signals they're going to throw the ball

476
00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:30,600
Speaker 2: more and they're gonna put them in a in a

477
00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:35,040
Speaker 2: more of a quote unquote pro style offense, and we'll

478
00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:35,640
Speaker 2: see how it goes.

479
00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:37,919
Speaker 1: All right, there you go. He's Jeff Schwartz. I mean

480
00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:41,440
Speaker 1: Andy fermwee a Fox Sports Sunday on Fox Sports. Ready, everyone,

481
00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:45,159
Speaker 1: I say, everyone saw this coming. That's on Fox Sports Sunday,

482
00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:48,040
Speaker 1: coming up live from the Tirack dot Com studios. Next,

483
00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:50,840
Speaker 1: but here he is a guy Brian Finley with the latest.

484
00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:53,800
Speaker 4: Andy Furman and Jeff Schwartz. Good to talk to you guys.

485
00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:57,520
Speaker 4: It's been a while, and I know Andy, you were

486
00:22:57,600 --> 00:23:00,200
Speaker 4: working double duty yesterday as a jockey and one of

487
00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:01,840
Speaker 4: the races not in the Kentucky deary, but I think

488
00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:04,639
Speaker 4: you were in race eleven on that one hundred to

489
00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:05,720
Speaker 4: one odd.

490
00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:07,920
Speaker 1: Horse race thirteen. Yeah, yeah, race.

491
00:23:07,800 --> 00:23:10,600
Speaker 4: Thirteen, and then you helped out clean things up in

492
00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:14,359
Speaker 4: the stalls afterwards, my own shovel. Yeah yeah, well you

493
00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:17,040
Speaker 4: were married in a barn, right, so we go.

494
00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:18,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, Okay, it's true.

495
00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:21,399
Speaker 4: Lakers are winners against the Warriors one twenty seven and

496
00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:24,320
Speaker 4: ninety seven. That was Game three of their second round

497
00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:28,639
Speaker 4: Western Conference playoff series matchup. Lebron James did not attempt

498
00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:31,119
Speaker 4: a field goal in the opening quarter. He did finish

499
00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:33,760
Speaker 4: the twenty one points, eight rebounds, and eight assists. He

500
00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:36,200
Speaker 4: also had something else to celebrate, considering that his son,

501
00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:40,439
Speaker 4: browny hyped high school basketball player, announced his commitment to

502
00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:44,240
Speaker 4: stay in Los Angeles and play his college basketball at

503
00:23:44,359 --> 00:23:47,480
Speaker 4: usc LA. By the way, has a two games to

504
00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:49,720
Speaker 4: one lead in that series. The Heat have a two

505
00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:52,119
Speaker 4: games to one lead and their head to head against

506
00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:54,000
Speaker 4: the Knicks thanks to a one oh five eighty six

507
00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:57,840
Speaker 4: win last night. Jimmy Butler scoring twenty eight points and

508
00:23:57,960 --> 00:24:01,239
Speaker 4: he took eleven free throws, he only made one, and

509
00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:04,800
Speaker 4: the Heat are ahead in that series. Oilers and Golden

510
00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:07,200
Speaker 4: Knights are at one to one in their series score

511
00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:11,159
Speaker 4: in their second round playoff matchup after a five to

512
00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:14,520
Speaker 4: one Edmonton win in Game two last night, four goals

513
00:24:14,560 --> 00:24:19,040
Speaker 4: in the first period scored by Edmonton Major League Baseball.

514
00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:22,119
Speaker 4: We did have some of the later games featuring the

515
00:24:22,240 --> 00:24:25,440
Speaker 4: Rangers getting the job done against the Angels ten to one.

516
00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:28,600
Speaker 4: The Dodgers got a Chris Taylor to run home run

517
00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:31,080
Speaker 4: and that was enough offense for them to shut down

518
00:24:31,119 --> 00:24:34,160
Speaker 4: the Padres at Petco Park two to one, shines over

519
00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:37,359
Speaker 4: the Rivers four to one. Diamondbacks are now five games

520
00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:40,560
Speaker 4: over five hundred, with an eight to seven victory against

521
00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:44,800
Speaker 4: the Nationals. Andy Furman's Reds coming up with that elusive

522
00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:49,199
Speaker 4: and I say elusive win five to three against the

523
00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:52,520
Speaker 4: White Sox and the Pirates. Considering how well they have

524
00:24:52,600 --> 00:24:54,760
Speaker 4: been playing, guys, they have lost six in a row.

525
00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:57,440
Speaker 4: They on the are on the losing side of a

526
00:24:57,480 --> 00:24:59,680
Speaker 4: game against the Blue Jays eight to two. Blue Jays

527
00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:02,560
Speaker 4: had four fourteen hits and lastly, guys the Phillies they

528
00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:05,680
Speaker 4: suffer a six straight loss, even though Rice Arper had

529
00:25:05,680 --> 00:25:08,040
Speaker 4: his first home run of the season coming off the

530
00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:11,640
Speaker 4: injured list in defeat those seven to four. The Red

531
00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:13,760
Speaker 4: Sox swin with that. Let's get it back to a

532
00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:17,560
Speaker 4: man who has many socks in his drawer, oftentimes he

533
00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:20,879
Speaker 4: doesn't go with wearing any socks. It's Sandy Furman and

534
00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:21,800
Speaker 4: Jeff Schwartz.

535
00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:24,480
Speaker 1: Thank you so much seeing it now. Expectations can kill you.

536
00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:26,040
Speaker 1: We'll get to that in just about a minute. He

537
00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:28,280
Speaker 1: is Jeff Schwartz. I'm Andy Ferman, and we're brought to

538
00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:29,840

542
00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:43,120
Speaker 1: slash Match. Let's continue for just a second with Lamar Jackson.

543
00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:45,160
Speaker 1: I want to ask you maybe he's setting a new

544
00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:48,280
Speaker 1: trend here because you know his mom was his agent.

545
00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:50,280
Speaker 1: He got a three year deal one hundred and fifty

546
00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:53,240
Speaker 1: six mil and average about fifty two MILLI season. Is

547
00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:55,200
Speaker 1: this something that maybe others are going to say, the

548
00:25:55,280 --> 00:25:57,320
Speaker 1: light's gonna go off. Maybe I don't need an agent,

549
00:25:57,359 --> 00:25:58,639
Speaker 1: I'll get my mother to do it for me.

550
00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:01,439
Speaker 2: Yeah. I think in the end he had someone helping him.

551
00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:03,080
Speaker 2: I mean, we know that we had. You know that

552
00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:07,439
Speaker 2: we had, you know, the Ken Francis situation. I do

553
00:26:07,520 --> 00:26:11,160
Speaker 2: think in these situations players do have an advisor helping them.

554
00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:12,960
Speaker 2: I don't know if they want to call them an agent,

555
00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:15,760
Speaker 2: they don't pay them like an agent. Right. The thing

556
00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:20,119
Speaker 2: about an agent, Andy is is sometimes in life you

557
00:26:20,240 --> 00:26:24,400
Speaker 2: pay for convenience, if you're not having to do things yourself,

558
00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:27,800
Speaker 2: and for taking stress out of your life, right right.

559
00:26:27,840 --> 00:26:31,960
Speaker 2: And some players, in my opinion I was this way,

560
00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:37,520
Speaker 2: just don't want that stress in their life. And on

561
00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:40,719
Speaker 2: top of their their very busy life, on top of

562
00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:44,040
Speaker 2: the all black Actus already have at work, they just

563
00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:46,480
Speaker 2: don't want to deal with having to negotiate their own contract,

564
00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:49,440
Speaker 2: and so they pay an agent to do that for them, right.

565
00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:53,560
Speaker 2: And some players want to do their own deals, like Lamar,

566
00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:56,840
Speaker 2: did you? Lamar saved themselves anywhere from two to seven

567
00:26:56,880 --> 00:26:58,960
Speaker 2: million dollars depending on how much his agent fee would

568
00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:00,280
Speaker 2: have been, probably would have been one person sense and

569
00:27:00,320 --> 00:27:04,800
Speaker 2: closer to two. And if this was worth the two

570
00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:07,280
Speaker 2: million dollars, then it was a good deal for him. Sure,

571
00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:10,520
Speaker 2: if the headache wasn't worth it, then he should hired

572
00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:14,120
Speaker 2: an agent. Like again, for me, I felt an agent

573
00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:18,480
Speaker 2: was worth the money I paid him. Other players, I

574
00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:20,800
Speaker 2: would imagine feel the same way. Other players, obviously, we

575
00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:25,760
Speaker 2: know very famously Richard Sherman and Lamar Jackson and Bobby Wagner.

576
00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:29,000
Speaker 2: I think Russell Okun did his own deals right, and

577
00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:32,040
Speaker 2: other players like somebody's do their own deals, and for them,

578
00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:35,760
Speaker 2: like the business side of football and the stress of

579
00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:37,919
Speaker 2: doing your own contract and dealing with the teams personally,

580
00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:40,840
Speaker 2: they're fine with doing that. I wasn't Doug and I

581
00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:45,080
Speaker 2: wasn't as good as these players. But the other part

582
00:27:45,080 --> 00:27:49,640
Speaker 2: of this too is that really for those high level players,

583
00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:53,720
Speaker 2: the negotiations aren't that complicated, right. You know, you look

584
00:27:53,760 --> 00:27:57,600
Speaker 2: at what Jalen Hurt Scott for Lamar and you say, okay,

585
00:27:57,640 --> 00:28:00,440
Speaker 2: I want Jalen Hurts plus a little bit more money.

586
00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:03,879
Speaker 2: Like it's not it's not like it's this long turnout

587
00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:06,840
Speaker 2: of negotiation. It's not. There's a lot of back and forth.

588
00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:09,560
Speaker 2: You know, A player like myself, who you know was

589
00:28:09,560 --> 00:28:14,120
Speaker 2: was often you know, hurt and kind of you know,

590
00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:16,600
Speaker 2: getting a release and whatnot and finding a new team,

591
00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:18,600
Speaker 2: like I needed my agent to help me to help

592
00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:22,280
Speaker 2: find me a new job. Right. But for Lamar and

593
00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:24,760
Speaker 2: for some of the other players, like you're just you're good,

594
00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:28,200
Speaker 2: Like teams are calling you, they want you on their team.

595
00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:30,119
Speaker 2: So that's you know that I don't think it's a

596
00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:32,120
Speaker 2: new trend. I don't think it's gonna change very much.

597
00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:35,199
Speaker 2: But you know, just you play for the convenience of

598
00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:38,080
Speaker 2: having someone do it for you. You know. One of

599
00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:40,640
Speaker 2: the reasons we talked about Lamar and I think not

600
00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:43,040
Speaker 2: having an agent that was really tough was the rayevens

601
00:28:43,040 --> 00:28:45,440
Speaker 2: were telling him to his face, Lamar, we don't think

602
00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:48,520
Speaker 2: you're worth it. You know this ex contract that you want.

603
00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:51,080
Speaker 2: That's hard to hear from an from a team, a

604
00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:53,280
Speaker 2: team that you're playing with. Lamar has won seventy five

605
00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:56,160
Speaker 2: percent of his regular season games. Imagine hearing from from

606
00:28:56,200 --> 00:28:58,440
Speaker 2: from your team that you wont seven percent of games, Like, yeah,

607
00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:00,800
Speaker 2: I don't think you're worth this, this contra that you

608
00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:03,400
Speaker 2: want from us. That's why the agent's there, right, Agent's

609
00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:05,200
Speaker 2: a buffer, and I don't want to hear that from

610
00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:08,520
Speaker 2: teams major that was his job to say, filth the information,

611
00:29:08,560 --> 00:29:10,920
Speaker 2: I'll give it to me. And again, I was find

612
00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:13,480
Speaker 2: paying that some players aren't find paying that. And Lamar

613
00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:15,560
Speaker 2: has more money he's talking down for not doing Yet

614
00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:17,360
Speaker 2: maybe he looks back and says, you know what, the

615
00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:20,640
Speaker 2: hassle wasn't worth it for the two million dollars or

616
00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:24,040
Speaker 2: maybe it was I don't know, but that's that's why

617
00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:26,400
Speaker 2: I think the trend is probably gonna be what it is.

618
00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:30,000
Speaker 2: A handful of players who are very, very good, we'll

619
00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:31,760
Speaker 2: keep doing their own deals, and the rest of us,

620
00:29:32,680 --> 00:29:35,000
Speaker 2: we'll pay for the convenience of having an agent.

621
00:29:35,360 --> 00:29:37,160
Speaker 1: Right and one glaring stat and you kind of hit

622
00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:39,040
Speaker 1: it on the head of his regular is like forty

623
00:29:39,080 --> 00:29:41,760
Speaker 1: five and sixteen, which almost a seventy five percent fourth

624
00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:45,120
Speaker 1: best if any starting quarterback to debut in the Super

625
00:29:45,120 --> 00:29:49,160
Speaker 1: Bowl era, and Baltimore was eight and thirteen without him

626
00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:51,600
Speaker 1: over the last five seasons. That's the key right there.

627
00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:54,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, I really you know, Baltimore, I'll probably pick up

628
00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:56,480
Speaker 2: to win the AFC. The worth again, I just am

629
00:29:56,480 --> 00:29:59,120
Speaker 2: a sucker for that wage or they're plus money. Right now,

630
00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:02,800
Speaker 2: the Bengals win total things eleven and a half. Bengals

631
00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:05,360
Speaker 2: are really really good. But Baltimore, man, it just win

632
00:30:05,520 --> 00:30:08,000
Speaker 2: games when Lamar's in the lineup. And obviously there's a

633
00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:10,280
Speaker 2: lot of moving parts with you know, the new offense

634
00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:12,520
Speaker 2: that are going to have and seeing what that's going

635
00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:15,200
Speaker 2: to be. But they win, man, they win a lot

636
00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:16,800
Speaker 2: of games. And obviously you have to try to translate

637
00:30:16,840 --> 00:30:18,320
Speaker 2: that to the playoffs.

638
00:30:17,960 --> 00:30:19,920
Speaker 1: Right, you know, And and this is something that I

639
00:30:19,960 --> 00:30:22,160
Speaker 1: don't think anybody was surprised about switching gears here to

640
00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:24,760
Speaker 1: the NBA for a second. I said, expectations can kill you.

641
00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:27,040
Speaker 1: The Milwaukee Bucks, they lost to the NBA East, to

642
00:30:27,080 --> 00:30:30,320
Speaker 1: the Miami Heat, and they coach Mike Budenhalzer was was

643
00:30:30,360 --> 00:30:33,200
Speaker 1: fired the other day. We said that last week. We

644
00:30:33,280 --> 00:30:34,840
Speaker 1: knew it was just a matter of time when he

645
00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:37,040
Speaker 1: was gonna get fired. But look, if they were not

646
00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:39,640
Speaker 1: number one, a number one seed, I don't think he'd

647
00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:42,120
Speaker 1: be fired. It's all about expectations, not about the job

648
00:30:42,160 --> 00:30:43,480
Speaker 1: that he did. It didn't do right.

649
00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:48,440
Speaker 2: Absolutely, it's all about expectations. But you know the thing

650
00:30:48,480 --> 00:30:50,280
Speaker 2: about it, it's it's not even that it's I think

651
00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:53,040
Speaker 2: it's how they lost that there were times when you know,

652
00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:56,320
Speaker 2: there was strategy that appeared to need to be involved,

653
00:30:56,400 --> 00:30:59,360
Speaker 2: and he just did call timeouts, like he didn't get

654
00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:01,360
Speaker 2: the team in the in the right spot where they

655
00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:03,800
Speaker 2: need to be in to help them win. And that's

656
00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:07,280
Speaker 2: kind of where, you know, why this is kind of

657
00:31:07,520 --> 00:31:10,720
Speaker 2: where it's at. Other questions, I don't know who's better

658
00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:13,120
Speaker 2: or what the next planet is here. But that feels

659
00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:15,680
Speaker 2: like it's more of a of a strategy thing, like

660
00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:18,160
Speaker 2: he just kind of didn't do the strategy things necessary

661
00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:21,840
Speaker 2: to win, less of like your sticky coach, you know

662
00:31:21,840 --> 00:31:23,640
Speaker 2: what I mean. And it KiB has to be a

663
00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:26,600
Speaker 2: scapegoat when you lose in the way they did. But look, Miami,

664
00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:29,800
Speaker 2: they're gonna beat they beat the next seas y. Yes,

665
00:31:29,840 --> 00:31:31,640
Speaker 2: they're pretty handily. They're probably gonna win the series. But

666
00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:33,680
Speaker 2: they're gonna be theseter Conference finals. I mean, it's an

667
00:31:33,720 --> 00:31:35,360
Speaker 2: eight seed. Like, he didn't lose to a bum team.

668
00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:39,040
Speaker 2: It's just happened that Miami barely made the playoffs.

669
00:31:39,440 --> 00:31:41,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, it amazes me. I mean, I think Eric Skultcher

670
00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:44,320
Speaker 1: is a really underrated coach. I mean, the players that

671
00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:45,920
Speaker 1: he gets and where does he get these guys from?

672
00:31:45,920 --> 00:31:47,880
Speaker 1: This gay Vincent all these players that have been on

673
00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:49,720
Speaker 1: the Heat right now, they have a heck of a

674
00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:52,760
Speaker 1: developmental system, the Miami Heat, they really do. But you know,

675
00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:54,880
Speaker 1: one of the stats that's kind of glaring as well

676
00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:57,640
Speaker 1: is that three of the past four NBA champions, the

677
00:31:57,720 --> 00:32:00,680
Speaker 1: twenty nineteen Raptors, the twenty twenty Lakers, the twenty twenty

678
00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:02,920
Speaker 1: one Bucks. Now they have all fired their coaches. I

679
00:32:02,920 --> 00:32:05,400
Speaker 1: guess it's all about expectations, you know, when you're gone.

680
00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:06,560
Speaker 1: That's basically what it is.

681
00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:12,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it's you know, pro sports certainly can

682
00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:16,880
Speaker 2: can kind of be that vicious right where the Lakers

683
00:32:16,880 --> 00:32:19,479
Speaker 2: one was a little different. I think just out of

684
00:32:19,680 --> 00:32:22,720
Speaker 2: Vogel ever fitin Lebron's personality.

685
00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:24,640
Speaker 1: Leron made that cool.

686
00:32:24,720 --> 00:32:28,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, obviously happened with with Bodonholzer and then in in

687
00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:32,600
Speaker 2: in Toronto, some sort of thing, right, Like it was

688
00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:36,600
Speaker 2: when when they were winning, it was when they were winning,

689
00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:39,280
Speaker 2: it was it was good. And then when they were losing,

690
00:32:39,880 --> 00:32:42,200
Speaker 2: end up being you know, the personality didn't match, so

691
00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:46,480
Speaker 2: ends up again. It's a lot of times the personality driven,

692
00:32:46,600 --> 00:32:48,240
Speaker 2: you know, a lot you know, some of these especially

693
00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:50,680
Speaker 2: on the pro side. Right this happens.

694
00:32:51,760 --> 00:32:54,200
Speaker 1: And the funny thing is, like I think teams have

695
00:32:54,840 --> 00:32:57,560
Speaker 1: a kind of a window. If they don't win during

696
00:32:57,600 --> 00:33:00,440
Speaker 1: that window, forget about it. Because I think this year

697
00:33:00,520 --> 00:33:03,440
Speaker 1: the Celtics is theirs. It's theirs to have to win.

698
00:33:03,480 --> 00:33:05,680
Speaker 1: This year's shame on them and the Bucks. I think

699
00:33:05,680 --> 00:33:08,080
Speaker 1: the window was beginning to close right now because Chris

700
00:33:08,120 --> 00:33:11,840
Speaker 1: Middleton of Brick Lopez. They're free agency in the offseason

701
00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:14,400
Speaker 1: right now, and that could close that window a little

702
00:33:14,400 --> 00:33:15,520
Speaker 1: bit for the Milwaukee Bucks.

703
00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:18,240
Speaker 2: Absolutely, But you always have a chance with with with

704
00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:20,280
Speaker 2: with Jannis though, right, look that it always gives you

705
00:33:20,320 --> 00:33:23,440
Speaker 2: a chance. You're getting free agents. There might be difficult though,

706
00:33:23,480 --> 00:33:27,000
Speaker 2: so you have to draft, you draft well, yeah, look,

707
00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:30,320
Speaker 2: i mean the Lakers windows like now to maybe next year,

708
00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:33,240
Speaker 2: and yeah, this is this is the way it is

709
00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:35,080
Speaker 2: an NBA. It's hard to keep your window open for

710
00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:37,560
Speaker 2: as long as the Spurs for so many years, right,

711
00:33:38,120 --> 00:33:40,280
Speaker 2: the Bulls for so many years, the Lakers for you know,

712
00:33:40,520 --> 00:33:44,880
Speaker 2: with the the Kobe years. Obviously, what the Warriors have done.

713
00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:47,960
Speaker 2: I mean, look, the Warriors, this is probably their last year.

714
00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:49,920
Speaker 2: I mean, Draymond is going to be a free agent

715
00:33:49,960 --> 00:33:55,640
Speaker 2: after the season. Klay Thompson's it's not he can still shoot, obviously,

716
00:33:55,640 --> 00:33:57,720
Speaker 2: but he's kind of slowing down physically, obviously with all

717
00:33:57,760 --> 00:33:58,560
Speaker 2: the injuries he's had.

718
00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:01,080
Speaker 1: You'll it's gonna be thirty six.

719
00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:04,400
Speaker 2: The young players haven't what they really don't have that

720
00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:07,400
Speaker 2: next core, I mean Pooling and Wigans is at the

721
00:34:07,480 --> 00:34:11,000
Speaker 2: next corp. It's obviously not Steph Draymond and Clay, So

722
00:34:11,360 --> 00:34:12,799
Speaker 2: you know it comes to an end. But they have

723
00:34:12,840 --> 00:34:15,680
Speaker 2: won four championships eight years, so it obviously worked for them.

724
00:34:15,920 --> 00:34:19,000
Speaker 1: Exactly right. Just Schwartz Andy Furman, Fox Sports Sunday on

Speaker 1: I think I think, so here we go. Okay, when

754
00:35:38,880 --> 00:35:42,960
Speaker 1: you join the NFL, what players, if any, were you

755
00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:43,480
Speaker 1: in awe of?

756
00:35:45,480 --> 00:35:52,799
Speaker 2: Oh? Well, when I joined, I don't know the three

757
00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:55,400
Speaker 2: players I've been most when I've played with Julis Pepper,

758
00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:57,080
Speaker 2: so I've played and I had to block a bunch

759
00:35:57,120 --> 00:35:59,640
Speaker 2: in Herolina was looking at the Panthers, and then I

760
00:35:59,680 --> 00:36:02,000
Speaker 2: when I in person, I've seen play like Adrian Peterson,

761
00:36:02,040 --> 00:36:04,600
Speaker 2: who I played within twenty twelve. And then I played

762
00:36:04,600 --> 00:36:07,640
Speaker 2: against Peyton Manning in twenty thirteen, the year he had

763
00:36:07,640 --> 00:36:09,680
Speaker 2: fifty touchdowns first year with the Broncos. Those like to

764
00:36:09,719 --> 00:36:12,359
Speaker 2: three players that I remember watching Peyton Manning in twenty

765
00:36:12,360 --> 00:36:15,239
Speaker 2: thirteen were in Denver. We actually then we played them

766
00:36:15,239 --> 00:36:17,200
Speaker 2: again in Kansas City a couple of weeks later. But

767
00:36:17,239 --> 00:36:18,759
Speaker 2: the first time I saw him in Denver that year,

768
00:36:19,360 --> 00:36:21,600
Speaker 2: and like there was a pass he threw down the

769
00:36:21,640 --> 00:36:24,120
Speaker 2: sidelines right toward where I was standing, and I thought

770
00:36:24,120 --> 00:36:26,040
Speaker 2: to myself, there's no way that ball gets to the

771
00:36:26,080 --> 00:36:30,000
Speaker 2: wide receiver. And he hit in such perfect stride. He

772
00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:33,800
Speaker 2: was so good. So those are three players that I've

773
00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:36,440
Speaker 2: said I've been like personally in off of when I've

774
00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:39,279
Speaker 2: watched it either been their teammate or when I watched

775
00:36:39,360 --> 00:36:39,800
Speaker 2: him play.

776
00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:42,680
Speaker 1: We'll go one stuff further. Did you like get autograss

777
00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:45,399
Speaker 1: from them, the autograph jerseys? Who are selfies with them?

778
00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:51,880
Speaker 2: Then I'm not a memorabilia like guy. I don't. I

779
00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:54,400
Speaker 2: never did that. No, I didn't do. I did a

780
00:36:54,400 --> 00:36:57,400
Speaker 2: couple of jerseys swamps only with teammates of mine at

781
00:36:57,440 --> 00:36:59,000
Speaker 2: the end of the season, like when there was extra

782
00:36:59,080 --> 00:37:01,240
Speaker 2: jerseys to be had. It's like I have an Odell

783
00:37:01,360 --> 00:37:05,120
Speaker 2: jersey and Jamal Charles, I think a couple when I

784
00:37:05,120 --> 00:37:06,480
Speaker 2: did it when I was younger, Like I have a

785
00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:09,640
Speaker 2: Jonathan Stewart Janjona Williams with the Panthers and Jordan Gross

786
00:37:09,640 --> 00:37:12,560
Speaker 2: and I think Ryan Khalil but like as I got older,

787
00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:15,600
Speaker 2: I'm like, oh, who cares? Top Jr.

788
00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:18,239
Speaker 1: Okay, we know that once in a while you like

789
00:37:18,320 --> 00:37:20,920
Speaker 1: to put a couple of shekels down at various events.

790
00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:24,759
Speaker 1: All right, which sport are you most successful in wagering?

791
00:37:25,440 --> 00:37:29,759
Speaker 2: Pack twelve football? I believe I am. I don't have

792
00:37:29,840 --> 00:37:32,040
Speaker 2: my iPad with me. I think in the last three

793
00:37:32,120 --> 00:37:34,520
Speaker 2: years I'm about sixty percent in the PAC twelve.

794
00:37:34,840 --> 00:37:35,200
Speaker 1: Really.

795
00:37:35,960 --> 00:37:38,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, Well, so my day job is packed of radio

796
00:37:38,560 --> 00:37:42,120
Speaker 2: Monday through Friday at serious XM sixty nine Eastern on

797
00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:46,120
Speaker 2: three seventy three. And you know, I just follow the

798
00:37:46,120 --> 00:37:48,120
Speaker 2: conference for a living, and so I have a good

799
00:37:48,120 --> 00:37:53,320
Speaker 2: feel on uh, you know, obviously how to wager on

800
00:37:53,360 --> 00:37:53,880
Speaker 2: the conference.

801
00:37:54,200 --> 00:37:57,600
Speaker 1: So yeah, I would think that people that wager and

802
00:37:57,880 --> 00:38:02,120
Speaker 1: uh and really a serious the wager games, and obviously

803
00:38:02,160 --> 00:38:05,120
Speaker 1: you do because you study they they become really good

804
00:38:05,160 --> 00:38:07,480
Speaker 1: hosts in various sports. They really do.

805
00:38:08,040 --> 00:38:08,239
Speaker 5: Yeah.

806
00:38:08,360 --> 00:38:10,960
Speaker 2: Maybe, but they say that the way to make money

807
00:38:11,560 --> 00:38:13,759
Speaker 2: in wagering is to do what I is. To do

808
00:38:13,800 --> 00:38:16,520
Speaker 2: what I do is to follow, especially in the college shot.

809
00:38:16,600 --> 00:38:19,239
Speaker 2: You follow one conference in basketball and football and just

810
00:38:19,239 --> 00:38:21,799
Speaker 2: wager on that conference because the NFL is too sharp.

811
00:38:21,800 --> 00:38:25,279
Speaker 2: You're not gonna make money in the NFL and it's

812
00:38:25,320 --> 00:38:27,440
Speaker 2: not enough games. But college football, man, there's a lot

813
00:38:27,440 --> 00:38:29,360
Speaker 2: of inefficiencies when it comes like the Pac twelve. I

814
00:38:29,440 --> 00:38:31,160
Speaker 2: see some lines come up like yeah, that's that's a

815
00:38:31,160 --> 00:38:34,759
Speaker 2: bad line, and so uh pack troll football. Yeah, I

816
00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:38,400
Speaker 2: post my I post my picks every Friday during the

817
00:38:38,400 --> 00:38:42,000
Speaker 2: season for the Pac twelve. I start slow, you start bad.

818
00:38:42,040 --> 00:38:44,759
Speaker 2: I start slowing on conference play, and then I as

819
00:38:44,800 --> 00:38:46,799
Speaker 2: the sceneor goes on, I pick up a conference play.

820
00:38:46,920 --> 00:38:49,480
Speaker 1: Yeah. I bring that up because so years ago in Cincinnati,

821
00:38:49,840 --> 00:38:51,800
Speaker 1: Arch Schleister. You know you've heard of Arch Schlister. He

822
00:38:51,880 --> 00:38:54,200
Speaker 1: did his sports talk show in Cincinnati, and I found

823
00:38:54,200 --> 00:38:56,880
Speaker 1: it to be very intelligent in the sense that he

824
00:38:56,960 --> 00:38:59,520
Speaker 1: knew exactly what's going on. So because he waged on

825
00:38:59,560 --> 00:39:00,480
Speaker 1: every single game.

826
00:39:01,040 --> 00:39:03,200
Speaker 2: Well, I'll tell you what wadgeram does keep you more

827
00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:08,080
Speaker 2: involved in in sports than it does not, Like you know,

828
00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:09,839
Speaker 2: if you have a little some money, it's just at

829
00:39:09,840 --> 00:39:12,200
Speaker 2: the derby. Like again, like I played more attention because

830
00:39:13,200 --> 00:39:15,560
Speaker 2: you're able to to wager on it.

831
00:39:16,040 --> 00:39:18,399
Speaker 1: There you go, now you talk about the Derby. Let's

832
00:39:18,400 --> 00:39:22,240
Speaker 1: get the Jeff Schwartz sports bucket list. Events in sports

Speaker 2: a World Series game before. But I want there's specific

841
00:39:47,840 --> 00:39:49,560
Speaker 2: like I would love to go to, like see like

842
00:39:49,880 --> 00:39:52,920
Speaker 2: a night game, like an LSU I I got to go.

843
00:39:53,160 --> 00:39:54,919
Speaker 2: I love to go to see the game of Notre Dame.

844
00:39:56,360 --> 00:39:59,560
Speaker 2: I've been to most of the big baseball stadiums. I've

Speaker 2: ever been a a finals game, you know, the Masters

846
00:40:03,800 --> 00:40:05,600

847
00:40:05,719 --> 00:40:07,759
Speaker 1: I just to say you've been there.

848
00:40:08,040 --> 00:40:10,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, yes, I've been fortunate enough to at least hit

849
00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:12,839
Speaker 2: a lot of these sporting events once in my life.

850
00:40:13,040 --> 00:40:14,760

851
00:40:16,440 --> 00:40:21,160
Speaker 2: If organs, then i'd go interesting, all right? I think football,

852
00:40:21,280 --> 00:40:23,560
Speaker 2: I think I think basketball and football stadium is kind

853
00:40:23,560 --> 00:40:23,879
Speaker 2: of whack.

854
00:40:24,120 --> 00:40:26,960

874
00:41:22,040 --> 00:41:25,839
Speaker 1: the King Lebron. James, what's happening with the Lakers, rejuvenated

875
00:41:25,920 --> 00:41:26,800
Speaker 1: Lakers right now?

876
00:41:28,719 --> 00:41:30,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know. I don't know how reguvenated Lebron

877
00:41:30,760 --> 00:41:34,160
Speaker 2: looked at the end of the game, but he'll rejuvenated

878
00:41:34,160 --> 00:41:37,719
Speaker 2: in the second quarter. Yeah, it was. It was an

879
00:41:37,719 --> 00:41:40,560
Speaker 2: odd game, right, I mean Lebron took no field goal

880
00:41:40,640 --> 00:41:42,759
Speaker 2: attempts in the first quarter, which has kind of been

881
00:41:42,960 --> 00:41:46,840
Speaker 2: a trend of his in the playoffs where he's trying

882
00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:51,279
Speaker 2: it feels like he's trying to find someone that that

883
00:41:51,440 --> 00:41:53,200
Speaker 2: third option who's going to help him in the game,

884
00:41:53,280 --> 00:41:56,640
Speaker 2: right because we know ad is, you know, and he's

885
00:41:56,719 --> 00:41:58,279
Speaker 2: up and down. The next game is going to have

886
00:41:58,360 --> 00:42:00,479
Speaker 2: four points, so we can just accept that right now,

887
00:42:01,719 --> 00:42:04,440
Speaker 2: and it's about finding you know, is it gonna be Russell,

888
00:42:04,520 --> 00:42:06,680
Speaker 2: which it was yesterday? Is it gonna be Hocha Mora,

889
00:42:06,800 --> 00:42:09,279
Speaker 2: Is it gonna be Austin Reeves? Like who's gonna be

890
00:42:09,320 --> 00:42:12,959
Speaker 2: the third guys are gonna be? Who's who's the third guy?

891
00:42:13,440 --> 00:42:16,560
Speaker 2: Who's gonna be my my hot kind of scorer in

892
00:42:16,640 --> 00:42:21,440
Speaker 2: this game? And then he decided the second court obviously

893
00:42:21,440 --> 00:42:23,439
Speaker 2: he I think he had ten or eleven point second quarter,

894
00:42:23,520 --> 00:42:24,920
Speaker 2: kind of decided, yeah, you know what, I'm still the

895
00:42:24,920 --> 00:42:27,719
Speaker 2: best player in the NBA, which obviously he's not, but

896
00:42:27,760 --> 00:42:29,839
Speaker 2: one of the best players ever to play in the NBA.

897
00:42:30,360 --> 00:42:32,440
Speaker 2: All take over the game for a little bit, and

898
00:42:32,440 --> 00:42:35,719
Speaker 2: the Lakers pulled away. But look some of some all

899
00:42:35,760 --> 00:42:39,360
Speaker 2: can can be pretty simple, right. The Warriors missed a

900
00:42:39,360 --> 00:42:43,600
Speaker 2: ton of open shots in this game. The Lakers did

901
00:42:43,600 --> 00:42:45,839
Speaker 2: play good defense, and they played much more defense at

902
00:42:45,880 --> 00:42:49,040
Speaker 2: home than they do on the road. They hustled. The

903
00:42:49,080 --> 00:42:51,600
Speaker 2: hustle was fantastic compared to the game too. Lebron a

904
00:42:51,680 --> 00:42:53,520
Speaker 2: d just kind of getting the way it passes and

905
00:42:53,520 --> 00:42:57,799
Speaker 2: making the extra play. But the Warriors just missed a

906
00:42:57,800 --> 00:43:02,279
Speaker 2: ton of shots. Man, and Lebron looks, he looks, he

907
00:43:02,320 --> 00:43:05,600
Speaker 2: look gassed when they took him out in the third quarter.

908
00:43:06,120 --> 00:43:07,560
Speaker 2: I know he didn't play much of the fourth quarter

909
00:43:07,640 --> 00:43:09,480
Speaker 2: Lakers who were pretty big, So I just don't know

910
00:43:09,520 --> 00:43:11,759
Speaker 2: about that. Can Lebron keep his pace something? Man? Can

911
00:43:11,800 --> 00:43:16,160
Speaker 2: he play with one day off and come back tomorrow

912
00:43:16,400 --> 00:43:18,239
Speaker 2: and you know, be ready to go at the same

913
00:43:18,320 --> 00:43:20,640
Speaker 2: level he was in Game three? Can ad The most

914
00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:23,200
Speaker 2: the most frustrating player in the NBA is Anthony Davis,

915
00:43:23,280 --> 00:43:27,160
Speaker 2: right because you watch him play Andy, and you know

916
00:43:27,239 --> 00:43:29,520
Speaker 2: twenty five and thirteen, the first game he had with

917
00:43:29,560 --> 00:43:32,960
Speaker 2: that thirty twenty game and then the next game after that,

918
00:43:33,080 --> 00:43:35,480
Speaker 2: he just stinks. He looked like he knew how to

919
00:43:35,480 --> 00:43:36,680
Speaker 2: play basketball game too.

920
00:43:36,800 --> 00:43:38,759
Speaker 1: You know what, You're right on that, But I'm gonna

921
00:43:38,760 --> 00:43:40,200
Speaker 1: go one step further. I mean, he gets a lot

922
00:43:40,200 --> 00:43:42,520
Speaker 1: of criticism because he's supposed to be Lebron's right here. Man.

923
00:43:42,600 --> 00:43:45,040
Speaker 1: He's really come alive to some extent, at least defensively.

924
00:43:45,080 --> 00:43:47,680
Speaker 1: Yesterday was tremendous. He was. But another guy that I

925
00:43:47,680 --> 00:43:51,600
Speaker 1: think gets a free pass is Draymond Green. Guy Dramond

926
00:43:51,920 --> 00:43:54,120
Speaker 1: goes two points yesterday, and I think that he has

927
00:43:54,200 --> 00:43:57,239
Speaker 1: traveled on the code tails of some great players on

928
00:43:57,320 --> 00:44:00,000
Speaker 1: Golden State's team. I mean, I'm hearing these announcers say

929
00:44:00,360 --> 00:44:03,279
Speaker 1: that Draymond Green is a spot in the Natesmith all

930
00:44:03,320 --> 00:44:06,400
Speaker 1: the faith for this guy in Springfield, Massachusetts, and I'm

931
00:44:06,440 --> 00:44:09,440
Speaker 1: scratching my head and say why why I get it.

932
00:44:09,480 --> 00:44:11,560
Speaker 1: He's got the rings and this day and age, if

933
00:44:11,560 --> 00:44:13,480
Speaker 1: you got the rings, you know you're a great play. No,

934
00:44:13,960 --> 00:44:16,920
Speaker 1: he's part of a great team. He contributed to some extent,

935
00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:19,600
Speaker 1: but he is not the greatest that they make him

936
00:44:19,600 --> 00:44:19,960
Speaker 1: out to be.

937
00:44:20,440 --> 00:44:22,520
Speaker 2: He's I think he's like, he's like he averages eight

938
00:44:22,520 --> 00:44:25,800
Speaker 2: points and seven remols for his career. But I think,

939
00:44:26,440 --> 00:44:28,840
Speaker 2: I think, what if you listen to anyone who's connected

940
00:44:28,880 --> 00:44:33,480
Speaker 2: to the Warriors. They tell you that Draymond, you know,

941
00:44:33,600 --> 00:44:37,040
Speaker 2: is kind of you know, they're like, you kind of

942
00:44:37,120 --> 00:44:40,280
Speaker 2: need a Draymond on your team, right, And his ability

943
00:44:40,320 --> 00:44:43,000
Speaker 2: to do kind of the dirty work, his ability to

944
00:44:43,520 --> 00:44:45,640
Speaker 2: if you watch it in their offense, man, he initiates

945
00:44:45,640 --> 00:44:47,680
Speaker 2: a ton of offense by his ability to pass the ball.

946
00:44:48,440 --> 00:44:51,040
Speaker 2: He plays so much bigger than he actually is. That

947
00:44:51,120 --> 00:44:53,160
Speaker 2: helps him defensive him. He was great in Game two

948
00:44:53,160 --> 00:44:55,840
Speaker 2: again to Anthony Davis. You know last night he was

949
00:44:55,880 --> 00:44:58,919
Speaker 2: a Trociers on offense. But he's been a big part

950
00:44:58,960 --> 00:45:00,640
Speaker 2: of a lot of their playoff wins in the past,

951
00:45:00,640 --> 00:45:04,680
Speaker 2: and I can see why his defense will get him

952
00:45:04,680 --> 00:45:05,919
Speaker 2: in the Hall of Fame. It's not he's not going

953
00:45:05,960 --> 00:45:11,000
Speaker 2: with his offense, but his defense, his leadership, leadership.

954
00:45:11,600 --> 00:45:13,120
Speaker 1: But you think he's a Hall of Famer, then.

955
00:45:14,480 --> 00:45:18,120
Speaker 2: I would argue, well, if we're going off of stats, no,

956
00:45:20,400 --> 00:45:22,120
Speaker 2: but that's not often. I guess what the Hall of

957
00:45:22,160 --> 00:45:23,719
Speaker 2: Fame goes off of, right.

958
00:45:23,880 --> 00:45:25,960
Speaker 1: You know what, It's funny you bring that up because

959
00:45:26,080 --> 00:45:28,680
Speaker 1: right now and I think that he's on the playoff stage,

960
00:45:28,719 --> 00:45:30,680
Speaker 1: so he's getting a little more exposure than he than

961
00:45:30,719 --> 00:45:33,600
Speaker 1: he normally does. A little about Jimmy Butler. You know,

962
00:45:33,680 --> 00:45:35,480
Speaker 1: you don't hear about Jimmy Butler going through the Hall

963
00:45:35,480 --> 00:45:38,120
Speaker 1: of Fame. I would say Jimmy Butler from the Miami

964
00:45:38,160 --> 00:45:40,919
Speaker 1: Heat should be in the Hall of Fame, way way

965
00:45:40,920 --> 00:45:41,720
Speaker 1: before Dramond.

966
00:45:42,239 --> 00:45:44,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, but I really do think that there is that

967
00:45:44,520 --> 00:45:46,600
Speaker 2: Draymond Green has played a vityl role for you. Again,

968
00:45:46,640 --> 00:45:49,080
Speaker 2: if you listen to anyone connected to the Warriors, so

969
00:45:49,120 --> 00:45:51,280
Speaker 2: tell you the vital role that he's played with his leadership,

970
00:45:51,320 --> 00:45:55,840
Speaker 2: his defense, his toughness. I'm kind of doing the dirty work.

971
00:45:56,840 --> 00:45:58,560
Speaker 2: The way he's able to set screen. If you watch him,

972
00:45:58,600 --> 00:46:02,479
Speaker 2: he sets screens nowt at a high level to help

973
00:46:02,600 --> 00:46:06,000
Speaker 2: get you know, get Clay Open, get Steff Open. And

974
00:46:06,040 --> 00:46:07,759
Speaker 2: he does look at the little things that help you

975
00:46:07,880 --> 00:46:09,839
Speaker 2: be a championship team. You need a Draymonde on your

976
00:46:09,840 --> 00:46:13,680
Speaker 2: team to win a championship most years, you know, Jimmy

977
00:46:13,719 --> 00:46:17,439
Speaker 2: Butler hasn't won it that level, right, Like that's part

978
00:46:17,480 --> 00:46:19,880
Speaker 2: of he's one, I believe, zero championships, Right.

979
00:46:21,640 --> 00:46:23,480
Speaker 1: That's what kills me. You know, if you don't have

980
00:46:23,560 --> 00:46:25,120
Speaker 1: the rings, you're not going to go to the Hall

981
00:46:25,160 --> 00:46:25,399
Speaker 1: of Fame.

982
00:46:26,040 --> 00:46:28,279
Speaker 2: Yeah, but that and and I know I know, I

983
00:46:28,320 --> 00:46:30,920
Speaker 2: know it bothers you and I know that other people too,

984
00:46:30,920 --> 00:46:33,920
Speaker 2: but that's part of of you know, the the sport

985
00:46:34,000 --> 00:46:40,080
Speaker 2: is winning, right and Draymond Green has helped again, Steph

986
00:46:40,200 --> 00:46:42,120
Speaker 2: is there and Clay's there that the other players step

987
00:46:42,160 --> 00:46:45,919
Speaker 2: up in certain moments. But you know when you win,

988
00:46:46,719 --> 00:46:50,160
Speaker 2: When you win championships, the bar is a little bit

989
00:46:50,160 --> 00:46:51,799
Speaker 2: lower to get into a place in the Hall of Fame.

990
00:46:54,080 --> 00:46:56,680
Speaker 2: When you're Jimmy Butler and you've been really really good

991
00:46:56,920 --> 00:47:01,080
Speaker 2: for many teams, I guess two teams. Really you know

992
00:47:01,480 --> 00:47:07,960
Speaker 2: you and you don't win a championship, the bars is

993
00:47:08,040 --> 00:47:10,000
Speaker 2: higher if you don't win a championship. It's like that.

994
00:47:10,040 --> 00:47:13,160
Speaker 2: It's kind of that simple. Jimmy bow is probably the

995
00:47:13,200 --> 00:47:14,239
Speaker 2: Hall of Fame eventually, right.

996
00:47:14,280 --> 00:47:16,040
Speaker 1: I mean, I would think Jimmy Butler would be in

997
00:47:16,080 --> 00:47:18,919
Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame. I think that a championship would

998
00:47:18,920 --> 00:47:20,480
Speaker 1: cement the fact that he would be in the Hall

999
00:47:20,520 --> 00:47:22,480
Speaker 1: of Fame, and there's no doubt about that. But I

1000
00:47:22,480 --> 00:47:26,200
Speaker 1: don't think a championship should be the key element being

1001
00:47:26,200 --> 00:47:27,560
Speaker 1: in the whole of fame. Let's go for football for

1002
00:47:27,560 --> 00:47:30,160
Speaker 1: a second. You know, I never thought that Eli Manning

1003
00:47:30,280 --> 00:47:33,800
Speaker 1: was the greatest quarterback on on God's Green Earth. However,

1004
00:47:33,880 --> 00:47:36,200
Speaker 1: winning two super Bowls that may be the ticket for

1005
00:47:36,239 --> 00:47:37,839
Speaker 1: him getting into the Super Bowl I did the Hall

1006
00:47:37,840 --> 00:47:38,120
Speaker 1: of Fame.

1007
00:47:38,400 --> 00:47:39,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, he will be in the Hall of Fame for

1008
00:47:39,880 --> 00:47:42,960
Speaker 2: that because you know, when you have the playoff runs

1009
00:47:43,000 --> 00:47:45,839
Speaker 2: that he had, the way he play in those playoff runs,

1010
00:47:45,840 --> 00:47:47,960
Speaker 2: and again, this is the bigger stages, right, these are

1011
00:47:48,760 --> 00:47:50,799
Speaker 2: this is you know, this is the super Bowl. Now

1012
00:47:52,280 --> 00:47:53,600
Speaker 2: he will be the Hall of Fame because of that.

1013
00:47:53,640 --> 00:47:55,640
Speaker 2: He won't be obviously first ballot Hall of Famer, but

1014
00:47:55,640 --> 00:47:57,440
Speaker 2: he will absolutely be in the Hall of Fame because

1015
00:47:57,440 --> 00:48:00,560
Speaker 2: of his ability in those big moments, in those moments

1016
00:48:01,080 --> 00:48:05,960
Speaker 2: to play as well as he did. And you know,

1017
00:48:08,120 --> 00:48:11,320
Speaker 2: to me, the hard part about some of the discussion

1018
00:48:11,360 --> 00:48:14,359
Speaker 2: when it comes to like Eli and other players is

1019
00:48:15,200 --> 00:48:17,680
Speaker 2: you know they're never they were never the best at

1020
00:48:17,719 --> 00:48:20,560
Speaker 2: their position or even really top at their position at all.

1021
00:48:20,719 --> 00:48:24,200
Speaker 2: Like Eli in any year, was he ever the best quarterback?

1022
00:48:24,320 --> 00:48:24,360
Speaker 5: No?

1023
00:48:24,600 --> 00:48:30,840
Speaker 2: Was he ever third, top three, top five? Probably not.

1024
00:48:32,760 --> 00:48:35,080
Speaker 2: But again in those Super Bowl runs, he was very

1025
00:48:35,160 --> 00:48:37,000
Speaker 2: very good. And so you have to kind of again

1026
00:48:37,239 --> 00:48:40,920
Speaker 2: weigh that out, like in is that do you weigh

1027
00:48:40,960 --> 00:48:42,960
Speaker 2: that little heavier than someone who never made the playoffs

1028
00:48:42,960 --> 00:48:45,120
Speaker 2: someone who didn't win in the playoffs, and I do

1029
00:48:45,160 --> 00:48:48,160
Speaker 2: think that his success in those playoffs will get him

1030
00:48:48,160 --> 00:48:48,480
Speaker 2: in the Hall of.

1031
00:48:48,480 --> 00:48:50,200
Speaker 1: Fame, There's no doubt about that. But I think also

1032
00:48:50,200 --> 00:48:52,239
Speaker 1: making a comparison with doing football and basketball, it's a

1033
00:48:52,280 --> 00:48:56,360
Speaker 1: little different simply because the position of quarterback weighs heavily

1034
00:48:56,960 --> 00:48:59,360
Speaker 1: in the decision making of a Hall of Fame. Because

1035
00:48:59,560 --> 00:49:01,640
Speaker 1: if you go to the Super Bowl with a great

1036
00:49:01,680 --> 00:49:04,560
Speaker 1: surrounding cast and you're an average quarterback and you go

1037
00:49:04,600 --> 00:49:05,840
Speaker 1: to the Super Bowl and win, you're gonna go to

1038
00:49:05,880 --> 00:49:08,920
Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame because of the position you play.

1039
00:49:09,520 --> 00:49:12,480
Speaker 2: Yes, But also the list of quarterbacks have won two

1040
00:49:12,520 --> 00:49:14,839
Speaker 2: Super Bowls is like ten, like, it's not a lot.

1041
00:49:15,040 --> 00:49:20,120
Speaker 2: So I think everyone's in there but one quarterback. And

1042
00:49:20,160 --> 00:49:22,319
Speaker 2: I think, eli, that's that's what I will get in.

1043
00:49:22,960 --> 00:49:26,040
Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean there's a lot of basketball players that

1044
00:49:26,520 --> 00:49:30,320
Speaker 1: are great players that will never see the door opening

1045
00:49:30,320 --> 00:49:31,960
Speaker 1: for them in the Hall of Fame because they haven't

1046
00:49:31,960 --> 00:49:35,279
Speaker 1: won rings. And that's why I somewhat respect baseball in

1047
00:49:35,360 --> 00:49:38,080
Speaker 1: that regard, because you know, they have the Veterans Committee,

1048
00:49:38,239 --> 00:49:40,759
Speaker 1: which sometimes is a joke, but they'll vote these guys in,

1049
00:49:41,120 --> 00:49:43,680
Speaker 1: like Bill Mazeroski, if you remember, and I'm going back

1050
00:49:43,719 --> 00:49:46,400
Speaker 1: though in time the nineteen sixty Pittsburgh Pirates. He was

1051
00:49:46,520 --> 00:49:49,239
Speaker 1: an average baseball player. His his whole clank to fame

1052
00:49:49,440 --> 00:49:51,200
Speaker 1: is sitting a home run against the Yankees to beat

1053
00:49:51,239 --> 00:49:53,080
Speaker 1: them in the nineteen sixty World Series. But he was

1054
00:49:53,160 --> 00:49:55,399
Speaker 1: voted in by the Veterans committees in the Hall of Fame.

1055
00:49:55,520 --> 00:49:58,360
Speaker 1: But there are players like that never won a World Series,

1056
00:49:58,400 --> 00:50:01,160
Speaker 1: like Ernie Banks, you know, a two time MVP and

1057
00:50:01,239 --> 00:50:03,360
Speaker 1: a last place team. He's in the Hall of Fame

1058
00:50:03,600 --> 00:50:06,319
Speaker 1: and his team never won anything. But baseball permits you

1059
00:50:06,360 --> 00:50:08,400
Speaker 1: to do that. Were other sports you have to have

1060
00:50:08,480 --> 00:50:11,000
Speaker 1: that ring, and I think that's wrong baseball.

1061
00:50:11,080 --> 00:50:19,680
Speaker 2: But baseball is such an individual atatistic based sport where

1062
00:50:19,960 --> 00:50:22,719
Speaker 2: you can compare numbers over the years. I mean, I've

1063
00:50:23,400 --> 00:50:25,280
Speaker 2: I think baseball has made a mistake, but not including

1064
00:50:25,280 --> 00:50:25,919
Speaker 2: the stereo era.

1065
00:50:26,320 --> 00:50:29,040
Speaker 1: And I agree in their Hall.

1066
00:50:28,880 --> 00:50:31,920
Speaker 2: Of Fame, you know, the Hall of Fame is supposed

1067
00:50:31,920 --> 00:50:37,560
Speaker 2: to be, you know, kind of a record of accomplish sport, right, yeah,

1068
00:50:38,080 --> 00:50:41,120
Speaker 2: And but here's my my problem with with the keeping

1069
00:50:41,160 --> 00:50:43,960
Speaker 2: Barry Bonds out of it and Clemens to a degree

1070
00:50:44,800 --> 00:50:47,080
Speaker 2: is if you ask any player who played during the

1071
00:50:47,080 --> 00:50:49,239
Speaker 2: stereo ara of who the best player in baseball was.

1072
00:50:49,280 --> 00:50:50,280
Speaker 2: They said Barry Bonds.

1073
00:50:50,360 --> 00:50:51,680
Speaker 1: Right, he would have been a Hall of Fame, but

1074
00:50:51,719 --> 00:50:52,760
Speaker 1: without taking steroids.

1075
00:50:52,800 --> 00:50:54,440
Speaker 2: He was at four hundred and four hundred before he

1076
00:50:54,440 --> 00:50:57,759
Speaker 2: took steroids, before he went to before ninety eight with

1077
00:50:57,880 --> 00:51:01,359
Speaker 2: really ninety nine, ninety eight was the year when mcguarrettons

1078
00:51:01,480 --> 00:51:04,279
Speaker 2: had their run. Bonds has said he was jealous about

1079
00:51:04,320 --> 00:51:07,000
Speaker 2: the attention that those guys got. He was hurt in

1080
00:51:07,080 --> 00:51:09,640
Speaker 2: ninety nine. He came back in two thousand, looked like

1081
00:51:09,680 --> 00:51:12,680
Speaker 2: a different person, right, And that's when his numbers. But

1082
00:51:12,920 --> 00:51:15,480
Speaker 2: it's funny, he's only hit over fifty home runs one season.

1083
00:51:15,640 --> 00:51:18,920
Speaker 2: That was, say, the seventy three season. He didn't he

1084
00:51:19,000 --> 00:51:20,560
Speaker 2: just was consistent and he hit a bunch of home

1085
00:51:20,640 --> 00:51:24,000
Speaker 2: runs for many years, the high number for many years.

1086
00:51:25,280 --> 00:51:29,080
Speaker 2: And you know, when you leave them out, you're you're

1087
00:51:29,080 --> 00:51:31,560
Speaker 2: not telling a story of baseball. Because the steroid era

1088
00:51:32,239 --> 00:51:35,560
Speaker 2: was condoned by the commissioner, right, he did nothing about it.

1089
00:51:36,800 --> 00:51:39,520
Speaker 2: There was gonna be nothing done about until Congress got evolved.

1090
00:51:39,600 --> 00:51:41,360
Speaker 2: Like baseball did not want to do anything about it.

1091
00:51:41,400 --> 00:51:45,040
Speaker 2: They didn't test for steroids. They just didn't care, right

1092
00:51:45,239 --> 00:51:45,879
Speaker 2: because the.

1093
00:51:45,840 --> 00:51:48,360
Speaker 1: Bombs, because it was the golden age of baseball. People

1094
00:51:48,400 --> 00:51:48,839
Speaker 1: loved it.

1095
00:51:49,160 --> 00:51:51,239
Speaker 2: People loved it. They're off to strike. They need something

1096
00:51:51,280 --> 00:51:56,000
Speaker 2: to to talk about. But my argument for for why

1097
00:51:56,040 --> 00:51:58,080
Speaker 2: I think it's bs that they don't include Bonds and

1098
00:51:58,080 --> 00:51:59,960
Speaker 2: the clubs, all these all these players in there, is

1099
00:52:01,160 --> 00:52:03,520
Speaker 2: you can't tell me that you know exactly who and

1100
00:52:03,560 --> 00:52:06,640
Speaker 2: who did not take steroids during that era. And there's

1101
00:52:06,680 --> 00:52:08,920
Speaker 2: plenty of players that have been inducted in the Hall

1102
00:52:08,960 --> 00:52:13,160
Speaker 2: of Fame that I can assure you took steroids during

1103
00:52:13,160 --> 00:52:17,560
Speaker 2: that era. And it's like, and if you listen to

1104
00:52:18,000 --> 00:52:20,480
Speaker 2: you know, even I know everyone laughed. Jose canseeiko, but

1105
00:52:21,080 --> 00:52:23,240
Speaker 2: he said, what seventy percent of players were on steroids?

1106
00:52:23,440 --> 00:52:25,600
Speaker 2: It seems like that was pretty true, Like it was

1107
00:52:25,640 --> 00:52:31,760
Speaker 2: close and so of some form, some form of steroids something.

1108
00:52:31,960 --> 00:52:35,400
Speaker 2: And to just deny that Bonds, it's just so silly

1109
00:52:35,400 --> 00:52:37,680
Speaker 2: to be so, I mean, Baseball has done a disservice

1110
00:52:37,680 --> 00:52:40,880
Speaker 2: to their own Hall of Fame, but on including Bonds

1111
00:52:40,880 --> 00:52:44,799
Speaker 2: and Clemens and making them escapegoats for for that whole era,

1112
00:52:44,840 --> 00:52:47,680
Speaker 2: which again Bud ceely buzz He's in the Hall of Fame,

1113
00:52:47,800 --> 00:52:49,000
Speaker 2: but ceedly did not care.

1114
00:52:49,200 --> 00:52:51,080
Speaker 1: He I know the ground he.

1115
00:52:51,120 --> 00:52:54,480
Speaker 2: Was going to let this go. Mark maguire very famously

1116
00:52:54,560 --> 00:52:57,880
Speaker 2: had andro in his locker like he was not illegal

1117
00:52:58,840 --> 00:53:02,239
Speaker 2: to take some of these supplements. And so I just

1118
00:53:02,280 --> 00:53:04,000
Speaker 2: think baseball has done this wrong.

1119
00:53:05,239 --> 00:53:07,640
Speaker 1: I just think that your accomplished is what you've done.

1120
00:53:07,640 --> 00:53:09,200
Speaker 1: You don't have to be a boy scout th at

1121
00:53:09,200 --> 00:53:11,040
Speaker 1: that the Hall of Fame. I mean their ty Cobb

1122
00:53:11,160 --> 00:53:13,719
Speaker 1: killed somebody allegedly, he's in the Hall of Fame. Yeah,

1123
00:53:13,719 --> 00:53:15,120
Speaker 1: And I still think Pete Roe should be in the

1124
00:53:15,160 --> 00:53:15,760
Speaker 1: Hall of Fame.

1125
00:53:17,320 --> 00:53:20,279
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think again. I think Pete Rose might eventually be.

1126
00:53:20,320 --> 00:53:22,719
Speaker 1: On the gambling situation, I understand the rule of Major

1127
00:53:22,800 --> 00:53:25,080
Speaker 1: League Baseball, but don't take away from the forty two

1128
00:53:25,080 --> 00:53:28,000
Speaker 1: to fifty six hits he's got now do with gambling.

1129
00:53:27,840 --> 00:53:30,000
Speaker 2: I know. And if you want to create a separate

1130
00:53:30,040 --> 00:53:31,719
Speaker 2: you want to put a wing with Verry Bonds and

1131
00:53:31,760 --> 00:53:35,040
Speaker 2: Pete Rose and it go ahead. But again, Bonds did

1132
00:53:35,080 --> 00:53:38,319
Speaker 2: not break any rules when he played. I mean, they

1133
00:53:38,400 --> 00:53:40,920
Speaker 2: had a steroid policy in baseball, but they didn't test

1134
00:53:41,160 --> 00:53:43,160
Speaker 2: full time for steroid two two thousand and five, I

1135
00:53:43,239 --> 00:53:45,720
Speaker 2: believe twousand and six because they had a metal report,

1136
00:53:45,960 --> 00:53:48,480
Speaker 2: they spent a year of testing behind the scenes, and

1137
00:53:48,520 --> 00:53:50,080
Speaker 2: in two thousand and five, I believe, is when they

1138
00:53:50,080 --> 00:53:54,880
Speaker 2: fully implemented to some sort of testing ish policy. So

1139
00:53:55,000 --> 00:53:57,640
Speaker 2: baseball didn't care about it and they embraced it. And

1140
00:53:57,760 --> 00:54:02,000
Speaker 2: the same sports writers who wrote their columns during the

1141
00:54:02,080 --> 00:54:07,200
Speaker 2: late nineties that enjoyed the hormone trace of ninety eight

1142
00:54:07,640 --> 00:54:09,800
Speaker 2: are now the ones that are like those.

1143
00:54:09,640 --> 00:54:15,440
Speaker 1: Guys, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, it really is yeah, and

1144
00:54:15,640 --> 00:54:17,799
Speaker 1: those that the guys do the voting, which is a shame,

1145
00:54:17,840 --> 00:54:21,839
Speaker 1: it really is. You can't ignore a decade of Major

1146
00:54:21,920 --> 00:54:24,720
Speaker 1: League of sports, of Major League Baseball like it never happened,

1147
00:54:24,760 --> 00:54:25,200
Speaker 1: and that's.

1148
00:54:25,040 --> 00:54:29,200
Speaker 2: What they're doing, especially because also I kind of I'm

1149
00:54:29,280 --> 00:54:31,440
Speaker 2: a I'm a Hall of Fame voter, but my my

1150
00:54:31,600 --> 00:54:36,400
Speaker 2: criteria for voting during the stereoid era players would be

1151
00:54:36,480 --> 00:54:40,239
Speaker 2: very simple. It's like, if you if you think a

1152
00:54:40,320 --> 00:54:43,879
Speaker 2: player has done steroids right, and again it's not they

1153
00:54:43,880 --> 00:54:47,040
Speaker 2: didn't test, you don't know. I think they have to

1154
00:54:47,040 --> 00:54:49,799
Speaker 2: be above and beyond the best player right or like

1155
00:54:50,160 --> 00:54:52,560
Speaker 2: or have or be you know, above and beyond kind

1156
00:54:52,560 --> 00:54:55,320
Speaker 2: of what a normal player that position would do, right,

1157
00:54:55,440 --> 00:54:58,160
Speaker 2: And because there are players in that era that are

1158
00:54:58,280 --> 00:55:00,120
Speaker 2: up for I don't think anyone's really gotten in that

1159
00:55:00,120 --> 00:55:03,279
Speaker 2: that that that's been this way, were like, yeah, their

1160
00:55:03,360 --> 00:55:05,759
Speaker 2: numbers just like in the steroid era when numbers were

1161
00:55:05,760 --> 00:55:09,000
Speaker 2: a little inflated, their numbers weren't great, and you're like, well,

1162
00:55:09,239 --> 00:55:11,319
Speaker 2: you know, and you kind of suspect them to maybe

1163
00:55:11,320 --> 00:55:16,440
Speaker 2: be using So are they really that good? Right? Bonds? Again,

1164
00:55:18,080 --> 00:55:21,400
Speaker 2: what's the best player? One of the best players without steroids,

1165
00:55:21,400 --> 00:55:23,480
Speaker 2: and then became the best player like above and beyond.

1166
00:55:23,920 --> 00:55:26,000
Speaker 2: He would see one pitch a game that might have

1167
00:55:26,040 --> 00:55:27,479
Speaker 2: been a strike and he hit the ball four hundred

1168
00:55:27,480 --> 00:55:30,359
Speaker 2: and fifty feet like he was incredible. He had eight

1169
00:55:30,400 --> 00:55:35,080
Speaker 2: golden gloves before he basically got to ninety eight. Like,

1170
00:55:35,280 --> 00:55:38,120
Speaker 2: dude was incredible for five hundred stolen bases for his career.

1171
00:55:38,640 --> 00:55:42,160
Speaker 2: So to act like Bonds, you know, is the is

1172
00:55:42,200 --> 00:55:45,200
Speaker 2: the scapegoal for this whole generation. I think it's really silly.

1173
00:55:45,560 --> 00:55:48,080
Speaker 1: I'm with you on that. There he goes, he's Jeff Schwartz.

1174
00:55:48,120 --> 00:55:51,680
Speaker 1: Get him on Twitter at Jeff Schwartz, that's Geoff Schwartz

1175
00:55:51,920 --> 00:55:53,680
Speaker 1: at Andy Ferman f s so, I bet he had

1176
00:55:53,719 --> 00:55:56,319
Speaker 1: eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox eight seven seven

1177
00:55:56,400 --> 00:55:59,080
Speaker 1: nine nine six sixty three sixty nine bottom barrel betting

1178
00:55:59,120 --> 00:56:02,640
Speaker 1: in this hour. How our number three is the blame game,

1179
00:56:02,719 --> 00:56:05,920
Speaker 1: But one NFL rookie says a future Hall of Famer

1180
00:56:06,440 --> 00:56:09,959
Speaker 1: will help his game. That's next on the higher level

1181
00:56:10,040 --> 00:56:12,040
Speaker 1: of play. We'll get to that in just about a minute.

1188
00:56:30,880 --> 00:56:33,800
Speaker 1: a little college football right up your ally. Perhaps the

1189
00:56:33,840 --> 00:56:36,480
Speaker 1: second most popular sport in the country today, college football,

1190
00:56:36,840 --> 00:56:40,080
Speaker 1: and the face of that sport has since changed with

1191
00:56:40,239 --> 00:56:44,239
Speaker 1: this transfer portal and for sure, coach Deon Sanders at

1192
00:56:44,239 --> 00:56:48,680
Speaker 1: the University of Colorado, fifty players have left his program

1193
00:56:49,160 --> 00:56:52,440
Speaker 1: since December, and the athletic director at the University of Colorado,

1194
00:56:52,520 --> 00:56:55,799
Speaker 1: Rick Georges, he backs Iners, and I say, really does

1195
00:56:55,840 --> 00:56:57,759
Speaker 1: he have a choice? I mean, come on, he could

1196
00:56:57,840 --> 00:56:59,600
Speaker 1: run for governor in the state of Colorado. Right now,

1197
00:56:59,680 --> 00:57:02,719
Speaker 1: Dean and and the and the portal right now, go

1198
00:57:02,880 --> 00:57:05,440
Speaker 1: to a band. I say coaches can move, now, players

1199
00:57:05,520 --> 00:57:07,319
Speaker 1: can move. But I ask you this because you were

1200
00:57:07,360 --> 00:57:11,560
Speaker 1: an outstanding college football player. What about the academics? How

1201
00:57:11,560 --> 00:57:13,840
Speaker 1: does one become automatically eligible when it goes from one

1202
00:57:13,880 --> 00:57:15,600
Speaker 1: school to another. I never understood that.

1203
00:57:16,040 --> 00:57:18,400
Speaker 2: So it's kind of funny you mentioned Colorado in this

1204
00:57:18,560 --> 00:57:21,040
Speaker 2: because I I again, I covered the Pac twelve and

1205
00:57:22,280 --> 00:57:25,200
Speaker 2: Colorado was a tough school to transfer into because they

1206
00:57:25,240 --> 00:57:28,840
Speaker 2: didn't have like a it's just gonna be a simple

1207
00:57:28,840 --> 00:57:30,160
Speaker 2: way to say it, but they didn't have like a

1208
00:57:30,280 --> 00:57:35,520
Speaker 2: general studies major, and so they couldn't get a lot

1209
00:57:35,560 --> 00:57:39,480
Speaker 2: of transfers because you had to transfer into like, you know,

1210
00:57:39,560 --> 00:57:42,320
Speaker 2: one of their one of their their their programs, like

1211
00:57:42,400 --> 00:57:46,480
Speaker 2: a you know, a sociology, you know, department or educate.

1212
00:57:46,640 --> 00:57:51,960
Speaker 2: You had to academics to transfer into one of their

1213
00:57:52,040 --> 00:57:54,920
Speaker 2: major programs, which is a lot harder to do if

1214
00:57:54,920 --> 00:57:56,840
Speaker 2: you don't have the if you were at a different school,

1215
00:57:56,920 --> 00:57:59,440
Speaker 2: didn't take those credits right to get you into that program.

1216
00:58:00,400 --> 00:58:02,880
Speaker 2: It was hard to turn. Now, they they they changed,

1217
00:58:03,000 --> 00:58:06,880
Speaker 2: they basically added a general studies type major to help

1218
00:58:06,920 --> 00:58:09,840
Speaker 2: football to to help to get transfers.

1219
00:58:12,040 --> 00:58:12,640
Speaker 1: Down a little bit.

1220
00:58:13,120 --> 00:58:15,480
Speaker 2: No, no, no, they just know they just added, uh,

1221
00:58:16,640 --> 00:58:21,880
Speaker 2: okay is a football player. There are players that certainly

1222
00:58:22,520 --> 00:58:25,320
Speaker 2: are are very capable of getting you know, a major

1223
00:58:25,600 --> 00:58:32,600
Speaker 2: in something that is you know, uh credible, sure, whatever

1224
00:58:32,640 --> 00:58:35,080
Speaker 2: word you want to use for like like like I

1225
00:58:35,120 --> 00:58:38,600
Speaker 2: got my major in political science. I thought, you know,

1226
00:58:38,960 --> 00:58:42,000
Speaker 2: my my goal was always to be an attorney, and

1227
00:58:42,320 --> 00:58:44,400
Speaker 2: you know that's one major that a lot of attorneys

1228
00:58:44,440 --> 00:58:48,400
Speaker 2: are up getting political science. But to be fair, it

1229
00:58:48,520 --> 00:58:50,680
Speaker 2: was a pretty easy major, right, It just kind of fit,

1230
00:58:50,840 --> 00:58:53,800
Speaker 2: like the schedule that I had an organ around football

1231
00:58:54,440 --> 00:58:57,080
Speaker 2: when I have love to use the Business School to

1232
00:58:57,160 --> 00:58:59,360
Speaker 2: organ which is one of the best in the country.

1233
00:58:59,400 --> 00:59:01,640
Speaker 2: It's associated, you know with with Nike, and you know what,

1234
00:59:02,120 --> 00:59:06,240
Speaker 2: I have loved to do sports marketing, sports business absolutely

1235
00:59:06,840 --> 00:59:08,960
Speaker 2: but didn't fit the football schedule. Like it just wasn't

1236
00:59:09,000 --> 00:59:13,240
Speaker 2: possible to do. And so I had to do something

1237
00:59:13,240 --> 00:59:16,360
Speaker 2: that kind of fit what time I had in my life.

1238
00:59:17,160 --> 00:59:21,000
Speaker 2: And and so it makes sense that Colorado try to

1239
00:59:21,040 --> 00:59:25,000
Speaker 2: be competitive, decided that they needed to have a program

1240
00:59:25,080 --> 00:59:28,800
Speaker 2: that fit more with the athletes. You know, their commitment.

1241
00:59:29,160 --> 00:59:33,440
Speaker 2: Their commitment was dictated. Now as far as the transfer

1242
00:59:33,520 --> 00:59:35,760
Speaker 2: portal thing with Dion, so a couple of things here.

1243
00:59:37,240 --> 00:59:40,640
Speaker 2: You know, he's not the only team to do the

1244
00:59:41,080 --> 00:59:43,480
Speaker 2: last year, USC did something like this, right. USC was

1245
00:59:43,520 --> 00:59:47,120
Speaker 2: able to flip forty fifty players, and they obviously had

1246
00:59:47,160 --> 00:59:54,560
Speaker 2: a great season. The difference is Lincoln Riley was a coach,

1247
00:59:54,840 --> 00:59:57,240
Speaker 2: is a coach that has had five straight eleven to

1248
00:59:57,280 --> 01:00:01,560
Speaker 2: win seasons. He's a coach that that has been to

1249
01:00:01,640 --> 01:00:06,120
Speaker 2: multiple playoff appearances. His coach had infrastructure kind of already

1250
01:00:06,160 --> 01:00:09,280
Speaker 2: in place for a lot of these things like and

1251
01:00:09,400 --> 01:00:13,280
Speaker 2: Riley also brought over a heis and winning quarterback. But

1252
01:00:13,400 --> 01:00:16,920
Speaker 2: also USC the core of their offensive line was already

1253
01:00:17,040 --> 01:00:20,520
Speaker 2: at USC. Three of the three other five starters, but

1254
01:00:20,600 --> 01:00:24,360
Speaker 2: the three best offensive linemen were already at USC. Twoy

1255
01:00:24,440 --> 01:00:28,160
Speaker 2: Twoy Polotu was drafted fifty fourth overall. He led the

1256
01:00:28,240 --> 01:00:30,600
Speaker 2: country in sacks last season. He was already at USC,

1257
01:00:32,120 --> 01:00:34,800
Speaker 2: so they had some players there. Colorado was obviously starting

1258
01:00:34,800 --> 01:00:40,040
Speaker 2: from scratch. They've turned over seventy players and it's a lot.

1259
01:00:40,400 --> 01:00:43,560
Speaker 2: It's a lot of turnover, but to be fair, be good.

1260
01:00:43,680 --> 01:00:45,840
Speaker 2: Organs has like fifty players this year. They've turned over

1261
01:00:46,000 --> 01:00:47,720
Speaker 2: like they're not the only team doing it just the

1262
01:00:47,800 --> 01:00:51,120
Speaker 2: color was doing it very loudly. And the question becomes,

1263
01:00:52,960 --> 01:00:57,320
Speaker 2: can you can you fit all these personalities with all

1264
01:00:57,360 --> 01:00:59,560
Speaker 2: these sort of different agendas for every player? Right Like

1265
01:00:59,600 --> 01:01:02,080
Speaker 2: some player are there for three or four years. Some

1266
01:01:02,200 --> 01:01:04,400
Speaker 2: players are there like more like mercenaries and they're there

1267
01:01:04,440 --> 01:01:08,160
Speaker 2: for one year. You know, some players are all there

1268
01:01:08,200 --> 01:01:11,520
Speaker 2: for different reasons. Can you get them to unify behind

1269
01:01:12,080 --> 01:01:14,680
Speaker 2: the buffalos, right behind the team and it kind of

1270
01:01:14,680 --> 01:01:17,680
Speaker 2: put together this team. But also I think you need

1271
01:01:17,760 --> 01:01:20,720
Speaker 2: to have players you develop as well, because you have

1272
01:01:20,880 --> 01:01:25,479
Speaker 2: to have players that have kind of that that core

1273
01:01:25,680 --> 01:01:28,160
Speaker 2: of what you of what you want your team to be,

1274
01:01:29,000 --> 01:01:30,920
Speaker 2: and that you develop them from from high school. You

1275
01:01:31,200 --> 01:01:34,400
Speaker 2: have a good balance between the players you've developed in

1276
01:01:34,520 --> 01:01:37,200
Speaker 2: your system and the transfers. And Colorado right now is

1277
01:01:37,440 --> 01:01:39,920
Speaker 2: only only transfers, right Like they're only guys. And I

1278
01:01:40,040 --> 01:01:43,040
Speaker 2: know that's some from Jackson saying I get that never

1279
01:01:43,160 --> 01:01:47,640
Speaker 2: been done this level before. Andy, I just they have

1280
01:01:47,720 --> 01:01:50,440
Speaker 2: a lot, they have a lot of talent. The deficienies

1281
01:01:50,440 --> 01:01:51,280
Speaker 2: of Colorado, But.

1282
01:01:51,520 --> 01:01:54,320
Speaker 1: I ask you this. I mean there's Dean go to

1283
01:01:54,400 --> 01:01:57,240
Speaker 1: a player A and say I don't want you here.

1284
01:01:57,520 --> 01:01:59,080
Speaker 1: You're not going to play for me get out.

1285
01:01:59,360 --> 01:02:03,800
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, So they call it processing in college football.

1286
01:02:04,840 --> 01:02:09,520
Speaker 2: And it's interesting because I was not a proponent of

1287
01:02:09,640 --> 01:02:14,160
Speaker 2: open transfer. I didn't I saw this coming. We talked

1288
01:02:14,160 --> 01:02:16,480
Speaker 2: about this, you know, for years on my show and

1289
01:02:16,640 --> 01:02:20,080
Speaker 2: I and my radio coast can back me up. I said,

1290
01:02:20,360 --> 01:02:23,000
Speaker 2: when you open transfer, this is what's gonna happen. And

1291
01:02:23,120 --> 01:02:26,880
Speaker 2: he and the pushback was, well, the major guys aren't

1292
01:02:26,880 --> 01:02:29,200
Speaker 2: going to transfer. It's only going to be for you know,

1293
01:02:29,320 --> 01:02:32,120
Speaker 2: lower level players and the fund opportunities. And it hasn't

1294
01:02:32,120 --> 01:02:35,800
Speaker 2: happened that way, right, everyone's transferring, So it was always

1295
01:02:35,800 --> 01:02:37,840
Speaker 2: gonna end up in this way. We're just transfer transfer

1296
01:02:37,880 --> 01:02:40,520
Speaker 2: transfer trancer, trying to find the best place, and again

1297
01:02:41,520 --> 01:02:44,360
Speaker 2: it's not the best place. Is sometimes just stayed at home. Man,

1298
01:02:45,200 --> 01:02:48,320
Speaker 2: It's sometimes it is. And I think for a lot

1299
01:02:48,360 --> 01:02:50,560
Speaker 2: of the quote old heads, like I'm not even that old,

1300
01:02:50,640 --> 01:02:53,160
Speaker 2: but guys that play kind of in this pre transfer

1301
01:02:55,160 --> 01:02:58,760
Speaker 2: being able to work through and kind of fight through

1302
01:02:59,800 --> 01:03:02,240
Speaker 2: tough times. Like there were times in college where I

1303
01:03:02,400 --> 01:03:06,280
Speaker 2: probably if transfer was allowed, I probably would have transferred.

1304
01:03:07,160 --> 01:03:10,160
Speaker 2: But I feel like I'm a better person and I

1305
01:03:10,320 --> 01:03:12,880
Speaker 2: learned how to deal with conflict and learn how to

1306
01:03:12,920 --> 01:03:16,120
Speaker 2: deal with adversity better because I had to stay in college,

1307
01:03:16,600 --> 01:03:19,840
Speaker 2: stay in organ i should say, and fight through some lisations.

1308
01:03:19,840 --> 01:03:22,000
Speaker 2: I had issues in my offensive line. Coach wed to

1309
01:03:22,080 --> 01:03:25,800
Speaker 2: work through those and I became a better communicator with

1310
01:03:25,960 --> 01:03:29,440
Speaker 2: my coach, and that helped me in the NFL. I became,

1311
01:03:30,360 --> 01:03:34,840
Speaker 2: you know, I understood what it took to really excel

1312
01:03:34,880 --> 01:03:36,560
Speaker 2: at a high level. I don't think I knew that

1313
01:03:36,680 --> 01:03:38,560
Speaker 2: sometimes in Orgon, but I learned kind of the hard

1314
01:03:38,600 --> 01:03:40,880
Speaker 2: way because my coach pushed me in that way and

1315
01:03:40,960 --> 01:03:42,680
Speaker 2: I had to kind of figure out, you know, what

1316
01:03:43,040 --> 01:03:46,440
Speaker 2: what was needed for me to be successful. And you

1317
01:03:46,560 --> 01:03:49,080
Speaker 2: just you come out the other side, you know, with

1318
01:03:49,240 --> 01:03:51,120
Speaker 2: with a better standing of who you are and and

1319
01:03:51,480 --> 01:03:55,520
Speaker 2: more confident individual. And you know, now guys are obviously

1320
01:03:55,560 --> 01:03:58,840
Speaker 2: transferring as sue as they're told, uh, they're not going

1321
01:03:58,920 --> 01:04:02,400
Speaker 2: to play. But I get it because when Deon comes

1322
01:04:02,440 --> 01:04:04,880
Speaker 2: to you, and and Dion so far has been the

1323
01:04:05,000 --> 01:04:06,880
Speaker 2: bluntest of this. Right, We've heard them, you know, we've

1324
01:04:06,880 --> 01:04:08,919
Speaker 2: heard articles when the players just don't like you're being cut.

1325
01:04:09,720 --> 01:04:11,240
Speaker 2: If a coach tells you, like, hey man, you're not

1326
01:04:11,280 --> 01:04:13,439
Speaker 2: going to play here. I get why players are leaving.

1327
01:04:13,600 --> 01:04:16,280
Speaker 2: I get it. But when the portal became a thing,

1328
01:04:17,360 --> 01:04:20,120
Speaker 2: the argument, one of the arguments was this gives power

1329
01:04:20,200 --> 01:04:23,000
Speaker 2: to the players, right, Andy, power the players. They get

1330
01:04:23,040 --> 01:04:26,440
Speaker 2: to transfer and the coaches can't talk down to them.

1331
01:04:26,480 --> 01:04:29,640
Speaker 2: The coaches can't hold them back because they on their own.

1332
01:04:29,760 --> 01:04:31,520
Speaker 1: When you're when you're told to get the hell out,

1333
01:04:31,560 --> 01:04:36,080
Speaker 1: it's a different story. Right, And I'm starting at University A,

1334
01:04:36,600 --> 01:04:37,960
Speaker 1: and I don't like the coach. I could go to

1335
01:04:38,160 --> 01:04:39,080
Speaker 1: go anywhere I want to go.

1336
01:04:39,520 --> 01:04:45,280
Speaker 2: Right. So, now though, it's turned into empowering coaches, right

1337
01:04:45,360 --> 01:04:49,640
Speaker 2: because again it was supposed to empower the players, but

1338
01:04:49,760 --> 01:04:52,000
Speaker 2: now coaches are telling players all over the country and

1339
01:04:52,080 --> 01:04:53,760
Speaker 2: not as blunt as Dean is. And I don't blame

1340
01:04:53,800 --> 01:04:56,760
Speaker 2: Dean all for doing this, because everyone's doing this saying hey, man,

1341
01:04:56,840 --> 01:04:59,280
Speaker 2: like you aren't gonna play here, you gotta leave. That

1342
01:04:59,440 --> 01:05:02,120
Speaker 2: wasn't the case three years ago. Couldn't do that, and

1343
01:05:02,240 --> 01:05:02,760
Speaker 2: now you can.

1344
01:05:03,480 --> 01:05:03,800
Speaker 5: And so.

1345
01:05:05,280 --> 01:05:09,120
Speaker 2: It's a lot differently with camp now. And I obviously

1346
01:05:10,480 --> 01:05:12,800
Speaker 2: this was this was never intended, but it was always

1347
01:05:12,800 --> 01:05:14,920
Speaker 2: gonna happen this way. It was always gona happen this way.

1348
01:05:15,160 --> 01:05:15,600
Speaker 2: There we go.

1349
01:05:15,920 --> 01:05:20,200
Speaker 1: Jeff Schwartz, Andy Furman, Fox Sports Sunday on Fox Sports Radio.

1350
01:05:20,800 --> 01:05:23,840
Speaker 1: This guy felt to round six, but can he still

1351
01:05:23,880 --> 01:05:26,520
Speaker 1: be a gem? That's coming up next on Fox Sports

1352
01:05:26,560 --> 01:05:29,440
Speaker 1: Sunday Live for the tiraq dot Com studios. But first

1353
01:05:29,840 --> 01:05:33,240
Speaker 1: the man himself he'll never transfer. Brian Finley with the update.

1354
01:05:33,480 --> 01:05:38,920
Speaker 1: I got a stump, thank you, Andy. I want a

1355
01:05:39,000 --> 01:05:39,840
Speaker 1: mature guy.

1356
01:05:40,760 --> 01:05:43,120
Speaker 4: That's another good one there. I want to throw those

1357
01:05:43,200 --> 01:05:46,360
Speaker 4: in here on this early Sunday morning. But yes, we

1358
01:05:46,520 --> 01:05:48,360
Speaker 4: do have some NBA action to get to, guys. The

1359
01:05:48,480 --> 01:05:51,800
Speaker 4: Lakers with a throttled finish and a win against the

1360
01:05:51,840 --> 01:05:54,400
Speaker 4: Warriors one twenty seven and ninety seven as they get

1361
01:05:54,440 --> 01:05:56,400
Speaker 4: it done in Game three in that second round Western

1362
01:05:56,440 --> 01:05:59,400
Speaker 4: Conference playoff series, and it is two games to one

1363
01:05:59,440 --> 01:06:02,960
Speaker 4: in favorable Los Angeles. Lebron James had twenty one points

1364
01:06:03,440 --> 01:06:06,200
Speaker 4: and uneventful twenty one points, eight rebounds and eight assists.

1365
01:06:06,240 --> 01:06:09,400
Speaker 4: As Jeff mentioned, did not Lebron have a field goal

1366
01:06:09,440 --> 01:06:12,120
Speaker 4: attempt in the opening quarter and wasn't much of a

1367
01:06:12,200 --> 01:06:16,400
Speaker 4: factor in the fourth quarter. The Heats are winners last

1368
01:06:16,520 --> 01:06:18,320
Speaker 4: night against the next one to five to eighty six,

1369
01:06:18,400 --> 01:06:21,520
Speaker 4: so Miami out in the Eastern Conference and their second

1370
01:06:21,560 --> 01:06:23,880
Speaker 4: round playoff series has a two games to one edge

1371
01:06:24,320 --> 01:06:26,919
Speaker 4: over in New York and Jimmy Butler in this latest game,

1372
01:06:27,440 --> 01:06:31,600
Speaker 4: thriving with his twenty eight points and ten made free throws.

1373
01:06:31,760 --> 01:06:36,880
Speaker 4: Second round NHL postseason, the Oilers dismantle the Golden Knights

1374
01:06:36,920 --> 01:06:39,000
Speaker 4: five to one in a Game two, with four goals

1375
01:06:39,040 --> 01:06:42,720
Speaker 4: in that first period for Edmonton equates to the series

1376
01:06:42,800 --> 01:06:46,640
Speaker 4: being tied up at a game apiece. Major League Baseball,

1377
01:06:47,160 --> 01:06:50,640
Speaker 4: the Diamondbacks holding off the Nationals eight to seventy a

1378
01:06:50,840 --> 01:06:54,360
Speaker 4: walkoff win for the d Backs. The Dodgers get a

1379
01:06:54,360 --> 01:06:56,600
Speaker 4: two run home run from Chris Taylor that was enough

1380
01:06:56,640 --> 01:06:59,720
Speaker 4: offense to tame the Pandres two to one. That bet

1381
01:06:59,840 --> 01:07:04,000
Speaker 4: Go Park. The Rangers scold the Angels ten to one

1382
01:07:04,520 --> 01:07:09,320
Speaker 4: behind fifteen hits from Texas. Phillies lose again, that's six straight,

1383
01:07:09,600 --> 01:07:11,800
Speaker 4: this time against the Red Sox seven to four. They

1384
01:07:11,840 --> 01:07:14,680
Speaker 4: continue on with their winning streak. Braves over the Orioles

1385
01:07:14,720 --> 01:07:17,080
Speaker 4: five to four. Kevin Plahar had that pinch at home

1386
01:07:17,160 --> 01:07:19,880
Speaker 4: run of the eighth inning that made the ultimate difference

1387
01:07:20,400 --> 01:07:23,640
Speaker 4: in the game. The Pirates, like the Phillies, another team

1388
01:07:23,680 --> 01:07:28,439
Speaker 4: in Pennsylvania, suffering a six game skid as they get

1389
01:07:28,680 --> 01:07:32,240
Speaker 4: trampled on by the Blue Jays eight to two. As yes,

1390
01:07:32,320 --> 01:07:33,600
Speaker 4: the Pirates have lost.

1391
01:07:33,440 --> 01:07:34,440
Speaker 3: Six in a row.

1392
01:07:35,040 --> 01:07:37,160
Speaker 4: And I'll leave you with this, Andy, the Reds coming

1393
01:07:37,240 --> 01:07:39,440
Speaker 4: up with a win five to three against the now

1394
01:07:39,560 --> 01:07:43,120
Speaker 4: eleven and twenty three White Sox. But we all know

1395
01:07:43,280 --> 01:07:45,960
Speaker 4: that a win for Cincinnati they don't come very often

1396
01:07:46,400 --> 01:07:48,520
Speaker 4: when you're talking about the Reds. So they'll take it

1397
01:07:48,920 --> 01:07:51,000
Speaker 4: back to Andy and Jeff.

1398
01:07:51,120 --> 01:07:52,600
Speaker 1: Thank you so much seeing it now. But it was

1399
01:07:52,640 --> 01:07:55,000
Speaker 1: a crash landing to that. In a minute, we've crossed

1400

1406
01:08:14,880 --> 01:08:17,080
Speaker 1: Benning coming up in about eight minutes from now, and

1407
01:08:17,240 --> 01:08:18,960
Speaker 1: I got to ask, well, first of all, this just

1408
01:08:19,080 --> 01:08:21,719
Speaker 1: dawn on me. We're talking about like the steroids in baseball.

1409
01:08:21,800 --> 01:08:25,479
Speaker 1: Go back for a second. There was a glaring, glaring bump.

1410
01:08:25,520 --> 01:08:28,799
Speaker 1: I remember back at nineteen seventy three, when Davy Johnson

1411
01:08:28,920 --> 01:08:31,599
Speaker 1: was playing second base for the Braves. He had forty

1412
01:08:31,640 --> 01:08:34,880
Speaker 1: three homers in nineteen seventy three. Prior to that, in

1413
01:08:35,000 --> 01:08:37,360
Speaker 1: his fourteen year career, he had never hit more than

1414
01:08:37,400 --> 01:08:39,800
Speaker 1: fifteen home runs in a year. So I think that

1415
01:08:39,960 --> 01:08:41,800
Speaker 1: was a big bump. And a lot of people say

1416
01:08:41,880 --> 01:08:44,360
Speaker 1: this because the steroids with Davey Johnson's just throwing it

1417
01:08:44,400 --> 01:08:44,680
Speaker 1: out there.

1418
01:08:44,800 --> 01:08:46,600
Speaker 2: I do you remember, yeah, in nineteen seventy three, I

1419
01:08:46,640 --> 01:08:49,599
Speaker 2: do remember that. Yeah, that was a big year for him.

1420
01:08:49,640 --> 01:08:49,840
Speaker 2: It was.

1421
01:08:49,880 --> 01:08:52,960
Speaker 1: Anyway, next question I got for you this transfer situated

1422
01:08:53,080 --> 01:08:56,519
Speaker 1: transfer portal. Okay, I'm player a deon saying this comes

1423
01:08:56,560 --> 01:08:58,880
Speaker 1: to me gets in my faces. You know what, you stink.

1424
01:08:59,080 --> 01:09:01,200
Speaker 1: I don't want you on my team. Get your locker,

1425
01:09:01,320 --> 01:09:03,320
Speaker 1: clean it out, get the hell out. All right? Fine,

1426
01:09:03,520 --> 01:09:05,360
Speaker 1: what do I do? I put my head between my legs?

1427
01:09:05,439 --> 01:09:06,760
Speaker 1: How do I get a job? How do I go

1428
01:09:06,840 --> 01:09:07,519
Speaker 1: to another school?

1429
01:09:07,560 --> 01:09:08,000
Speaker 7: What do I do?

1430
01:09:09,400 --> 01:09:12,080
Speaker 2: You're to the portal? You help someone calls the yes.

1431
01:09:14,040 --> 01:09:19,400
Speaker 2: I mean, you know, all the major schools have basically

1432
01:09:20,120 --> 01:09:26,400
Speaker 2: general managers now, so the general manager's job is and

1433
01:09:26,479 --> 01:09:28,960
Speaker 2: they have someone in charge of the portal too, is

1434
01:09:29,120 --> 01:09:31,560
Speaker 2: to obviously check the portal and to make sure that

1435
01:09:32,240 --> 01:09:34,880
Speaker 2: you know that you have, you know, the opportunity to

1436
01:09:35,520 --> 01:09:41,800
Speaker 2: to bring in new players. So Colorado just uh a

1437
01:09:41,880 --> 01:09:44,240
Speaker 2: tight end just transfer out to Colorado made the headlines

1438
01:09:44,280 --> 01:09:46,280
Speaker 2: last week because it was a tight end that just

1439
01:09:46,320 --> 01:09:50,000
Speaker 2: transferred into Colorado in January, transferred back out and you know,

1440
01:09:50,120 --> 01:09:52,800
Speaker 2: like I saw Organ offered them already. Like it's just

1441
01:09:53,000 --> 01:09:55,080
Speaker 2: the jobs these schools is to look at their rosters

1442
01:09:55,520 --> 01:09:59,360
Speaker 2: Luca's in the portal and try to find new players.

1443
01:09:59,479 --> 01:10:04,400
Speaker 2: And the players are communicating via direct messages on Instagram,

1444
01:10:04,479 --> 01:10:07,240
Speaker 2: on Instagram and Twitter. You know, they keep the coaches

1445
01:10:07,280 --> 01:10:10,040
Speaker 2: contact information from when they were being recruited in other schools.

1446
01:10:10,080 --> 01:10:14,800
Speaker 2: I'm sure there's this constant communication between player and former coach.

1447
01:10:14,880 --> 01:10:17,040
Speaker 2: Hey like hey, man, like you remember me, You're recruiting

1448
01:10:17,080 --> 01:10:19,479
Speaker 2: me two years ago. Can I are you looking for

1449
01:10:19,840 --> 01:10:23,760
Speaker 2: someone to him? But there's any But there's a lot

1450
01:10:23,840 --> 01:10:27,800
Speaker 2: of players in the portal that never never are in

1451
01:10:28,000 --> 01:10:30,920
Speaker 2: the same level of football, right, So there's a lot

1452
01:10:30,960 --> 01:10:32,720
Speaker 2: of players go from Power five or at the Power

1453
01:10:32,800 --> 01:10:35,200
Speaker 2: five conferences, the SEC, the Big Ten, the Big twelve,

1454
01:10:35,240 --> 01:10:37,360
Speaker 2: the a SEC, the Pac twelve, and they go down

1455
01:10:37,360 --> 01:10:39,200
Speaker 2: a level. Right, they go down to which is fine,

1456
01:10:39,200 --> 01:10:41,000
Speaker 2: there's nothing wrong with that. They go down to the

1457
01:10:41,080 --> 01:10:43,439
Speaker 2: group of five level, and the group of five players

1458
01:10:43,479 --> 01:10:45,400
Speaker 2: are transfer Often, if you're good enough, you might get

1459
01:10:45,439 --> 01:10:47,080
Speaker 2: pulled up, but often you're going back down to the

1460
01:10:47,200 --> 01:10:49,920
Speaker 2: FCS level. There's a lot of players in the boat

1461
01:10:49,960 --> 01:10:53,200
Speaker 2: of like just not finding a great, great place to

1462
01:10:53,320 --> 01:10:58,479
Speaker 2: be and sticking out would be best. But again, if

1463
01:10:58,560 --> 01:11:02,160
Speaker 2: your coaching staff says you have to leave, you have

1464
01:11:02,320 --> 01:11:05,760
Speaker 2: to go. There's eighty five scholarships. They're using them for

1465
01:11:05,800 --> 01:11:08,439
Speaker 2: the eighty five players they want there. And this is

1466
01:11:08,439 --> 01:11:11,679
Speaker 2: the undertaking consequence of the transfer portals. Coaches telling players

1467
01:11:12,120 --> 01:11:15,320
Speaker 2: we're processing you out. You're out of here, buddy, You're

1468
01:11:15,320 --> 01:11:17,880
Speaker 2: not gonna play. We're gonna find something else that we want.

1469
01:11:18,240 --> 01:11:20,200
Speaker 1: So it's like free agency in the NFL. But here's

1470
01:11:20,240 --> 01:11:22,080
Speaker 1: the question of the day. Really, you get to the

1471
01:11:22,080 --> 01:11:24,720
Speaker 1: school like the University of Cincinnati, you know they've been

1472
01:11:24,760 --> 01:11:27,600
Speaker 1: in a group of five. Next year they go to

1473
01:11:27,680 --> 01:11:30,960
Speaker 1: the big twelve. All right, So there's so cold general manager.

1474
01:11:31,040 --> 01:11:33,000
Speaker 1: This guy is in judge of the portal. He has

1475
01:11:33,080 --> 01:11:35,000
Speaker 1: to have the eye of saying, wait a minute, we

1476
01:11:35,200 --> 01:11:37,479
Speaker 1: need a better stock of players. Here than what we

1477
01:11:37,640 --> 01:11:39,439
Speaker 1: had in the group of five. We're going to the

1478
01:11:39,520 --> 01:11:41,800
Speaker 1: probably the best football conference in the country, well second

1479
01:11:41,840 --> 01:11:42,599
Speaker 1: best at SEC.

1480
01:11:43,880 --> 01:11:46,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, so yeah, I mean Cincinnati's gonna have to get

1481
01:11:46,800 --> 01:11:49,519
Speaker 2: better players. There's gonna be adjustment period in this kind

1482
01:11:49,520 --> 01:11:54,320
Speaker 2: of new this kind of new new realignment. You know,

1483
01:11:54,479 --> 01:11:56,240
Speaker 2: Utah went through this when I went from Mount West

1484
01:11:56,240 --> 01:11:59,559
Speaker 2: to the Pac twelve, where it took like four years

1485
01:11:59,600 --> 01:12:02,160
Speaker 2: to get the necessary to compete in the Pac twelve.

1486
01:12:02,160 --> 01:12:04,240
Speaker 2: I think Cincanni's gonna have that same issue in the

1487
01:12:04,280 --> 01:12:07,000
Speaker 2: Big twelve. It's just you need you need different players. Man,

1488
01:12:08,080 --> 01:12:11,000
Speaker 2: it's a different level of competition. A lot of times

1489
01:12:11,200 --> 01:12:13,400
Speaker 2: it's in the trenches right the offen theive defensive lines.

1490
01:12:13,479 --> 01:12:16,599
Speaker 2: It's depth. It's find those depth players having a too

1491
01:12:16,680 --> 01:12:20,599
Speaker 2: deep across the defensive line. And that's just a major

1492
01:12:20,680 --> 01:12:24,040
Speaker 2: difference in a step up in competition, especially in your conference,

1493
01:12:24,080 --> 01:12:27,040
Speaker 2: is having the players in the trenches to compete week

1494
01:12:27,080 --> 01:12:29,160
Speaker 2: in and week out. So it makes SEC so difficult.

1495
01:12:29,200 --> 01:12:31,360
Speaker 2: But also that's why we get a lot of often

1496
01:12:31,400 --> 01:12:34,679
Speaker 2: the defensive linemen in the draft from the SEC, because

1497
01:12:34,720 --> 01:12:37,280
Speaker 2: guess what, they're playing the best each week. They're playing

1498
01:12:37,439 --> 01:12:39,560
Speaker 2: guys they're gonna be in the NFL each week, and

1499
01:12:39,600 --> 01:12:42,120
Speaker 2: I think it's hard when a player in a conference,

1500
01:12:43,400 --> 01:12:45,400
Speaker 2: you know that that doesn't get the opportunity to play

1501
01:12:45,400 --> 01:12:46,840
Speaker 2: against the pros each week and get one or two

1502
01:12:46,880 --> 01:12:50,000
Speaker 2: opportunities in the entire season. Eight's those opportunities.

1503
01:12:50,400 --> 01:12:52,400
Speaker 1: Okay, So you got Cincinnati going to the Big twelve,

1504
01:12:52,439 --> 01:12:54,640
Speaker 1: Houston's gonna go to the Big twelve as well. Are

1505
01:12:54,720 --> 01:12:58,559
Speaker 1: there enough players to make those teams competitive in that league?

1506
01:13:00,439 --> 01:13:02,280
Speaker 2: Uh, we'll find out. But here's what. So this is

1507
01:13:02,320 --> 01:13:05,080
Speaker 2: where the portal does help out, right, because you you

1508
01:13:05,200 --> 01:13:09,040
Speaker 2: can take players from schools in the group of five

1509
01:13:09,800 --> 01:13:12,040
Speaker 2: or even you know, from a school like Georgia Alabama,

1510
01:13:12,160 --> 01:13:13,720
Speaker 2: like they're not a I'm not getting playing time at

1511
01:13:13,760 --> 01:13:17,760
Speaker 2: Georgia Alabama. I'm coach Cincinnati. You That's that's where the

1512
01:13:17,840 --> 01:13:21,639
Speaker 2: portal helps the school like the Bearcats, to get more

1513
01:13:21,720 --> 01:13:25,400
Speaker 2: talented because from chol you're not your your high school

1514
01:13:25,439 --> 01:13:28,599
Speaker 2: recruiting is probably not gonna see that much of an

1515
01:13:28,640 --> 01:13:32,240
Speaker 2: uptick go with the Big twelve, but your transfer portal

1516
01:13:32,920 --> 01:13:35,840
Speaker 2: is where you kind of fill in the roster holes.

1517
01:13:36,680 --> 01:13:38,840
Speaker 1: Got you all right, It's gonna be very interesting. I mean,

1518
01:13:38,960 --> 01:13:40,479
Speaker 1: I just won't want to be a kid be told

1519
01:13:40,520 --> 01:13:42,880
Speaker 1: by Dean Sanders, get the hell out that would They'll

1520
01:13:42,920 --> 01:13:44,080
Speaker 1: break my heart, really would.

1521
01:13:44,160 --> 01:13:47,920
Speaker 2: But I mean it's it's the way the college sports

1522
01:13:48,000 --> 01:13:52,360
Speaker 2: is now and again again the tight end that they

1523
01:13:52,479 --> 01:13:54,000
Speaker 2: just let go is getting off for by organ I

1524
01:13:54,040 --> 01:13:55,640
Speaker 2: mean it feels like an upgrade if you if you

1525
01:13:55,720 --> 01:13:58,400

Speaker 1: Now? Why would they announce it during the playoffs? Why

1679
01:21:07,280 --> 01:21:09,160
Speaker 1: not wait till it's all over to have a separate

1680
01:21:09,400 --> 01:21:11,400
Speaker 1: announcement for him at that point in time.

1681
01:21:12,280 --> 01:21:14,760
Speaker 2: Well, I think they liked They liked the optics of,

1682
01:21:15,120 --> 01:21:16,920
Speaker 2: you know, getting the opportunity to celebrate this at home.

1683
01:21:16,960 --> 01:21:18,960
Speaker 2: I mean, how great was that with the sun and

1684
01:21:19,200 --> 01:21:22,040
Speaker 2: kind of the you know, the sixers crowd cheering from

1685
01:21:22,160 --> 01:21:23,479
Speaker 2: I think that's why they do that. They do it

1686
01:21:23,560 --> 01:21:26,080
Speaker 2: so there's an opportunity for the player to be celebrated

1687
01:21:26,520 --> 01:21:28,200
Speaker 2: on his home for nothing.

1688
01:21:28,280 --> 01:21:32,040
Speaker 1: Interesting. Okay, Uh, do you think he deserved the award?

1689
01:21:32,560 --> 01:21:32,880
Speaker 1: All right?

1690
01:21:32,960 --> 01:21:35,479
Speaker 2: And you also also wagering on him too, so that

1691
01:21:35,640 --> 01:21:39,680
Speaker 2: was okay. I think he deserved the award, you know,

1692
01:21:39,880 --> 01:21:42,759
Speaker 2: just the all around game he was able to display.

1693
01:21:42,880 --> 01:21:45,880
Speaker 2: It's just felt like like the Nuggets especially it wasn't

1694
01:21:45,920 --> 01:21:47,919
Speaker 2: and of course jokers, you know, part of the Nuggets,

1695
01:21:47,960 --> 01:21:51,120
Speaker 2: but the last couple of months they obviously put much

1696
01:21:51,120 --> 01:21:53,439
Speaker 2: better than the postseason. They kind of just like stopped

1697
01:21:53,479 --> 01:21:55,479
Speaker 2: trying a little bit, especially on defense, and I think

1698
01:21:55,560 --> 01:21:58,280
Speaker 2: Embiid was able to kind of take over the MVP

1699
01:21:58,479 --> 01:22:00,280
Speaker 2: race during that during that time.

1700
01:22:00,720 --> 01:22:04,360
Speaker 1: Interesting. Okay, So today we got Boston against the seventies

1701
01:22:04,360 --> 01:22:06,560
Speaker 1: sixes and I mentioned this earlier that I think this

1702
01:22:06,720 --> 01:22:08,800
Speaker 1: is Boston's Yeah, and you know, you talk about which

1703
01:22:08,880 --> 01:22:12,400
Speaker 1: teams are going to win it all, because certainly Milwaukee's

1704
01:22:12,479 --> 01:22:14,479
Speaker 1: bounced out and they were a number one seed. I

1705
01:22:14,560 --> 01:22:16,559
Speaker 1: don't think it's the most talented team's going to win.

1706
01:22:16,600 --> 01:22:18,960
Speaker 1: I think the team is the healthiest. The healthiest team

1707
01:22:18,960 --> 01:22:21,400
Speaker 1: would probably win that. And right now we see teams

1708
01:22:21,439 --> 01:22:23,400
Speaker 1: breaking down because of health factors.

1709
01:22:23,520 --> 01:22:28,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think about Boston is is they just have

1710
01:22:28,160 --> 01:22:31,840
Speaker 2: stretches of games we were like, oh, like what we

1711
01:22:31,960 --> 01:22:35,479
Speaker 2: what are we doing? Guys? And they're the deepest team

1712
01:22:36,000 --> 01:22:39,360
Speaker 2: in the playoffs, but they just have like they just

1713
01:22:39,479 --> 01:22:45,760
Speaker 2: have moments where it is it's not good Andy, Yeah, right,

1714
01:22:45,920 --> 01:22:50,360
Speaker 2: like too many moments where you're like, oh, man, like

1715
01:22:50,600 --> 01:22:51,960
Speaker 2: what are we doing now? And they have one of

1716
01:22:51,960 --> 01:22:54,040
Speaker 2: those games. Because again they're the most their deepest team

1717
01:22:54,040 --> 01:22:58,360
Speaker 2: in the playoffs, and they've also dominated Philly for most

1718
01:22:58,360 --> 01:23:00,760
Speaker 2: of the seasons. This is not surprised I imagine saying

1719
01:23:00,760 --> 01:23:02,880
Speaker 2: they win again. I think Philly comes out probably pretty

1720
01:23:02,920 --> 01:23:08,519
Speaker 2: pretty hot early and something's pull away late. But there's

1721
01:23:08,600 --> 01:23:12,200
Speaker 2: just something about Boston where I just they're up against

1722
01:23:12,360 --> 01:23:17,280
Speaker 2: the Nuggets, the Warriors, the Lakers. If you're inconsistent like that,

1723
01:23:17,800 --> 01:23:21,320
Speaker 2: Can you win an NBA championship that way? You know?

1724
01:23:21,640 --> 01:23:23,479
Speaker 1: I will tell you this much. I think they have

1725
01:23:23,640 --> 01:23:25,599
Speaker 1: the talent to win it all. I think they should.

1726
01:23:25,880 --> 01:23:27,439
Speaker 1: I looked at that game the other night, if he

1727
01:23:27,560 --> 01:23:29,479
Speaker 1: was Friday, and that against the seventy six has six

1728
01:23:29,560 --> 01:23:30,519
Speaker 1: guys in double figures.

1729
01:23:30,640 --> 01:23:31,720
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah.

1730
01:23:31,960 --> 01:23:34,240
Speaker 1: I don't know where the scoring comes from Philadelphia. I mean,

1731
01:23:34,320 --> 01:23:36,880
Speaker 1: Harden was tremendous. In the first game he stung up

1732
01:23:36,920 --> 01:23:39,439
Speaker 1: to joined. The second game they played, he scored sixteen,

1733
01:23:39,520 --> 01:23:41,360
Speaker 1: but you know he couldn't at the outside of a bond.

1734
01:23:42,000 --> 01:23:45,599
Speaker 1: I understand the consistency factor, as you mentioned with Boston.

1735
01:23:45,760 --> 01:23:47,719
Speaker 1: I think it's almost like that with all these teams.

1736
01:23:47,760 --> 01:23:51,439
Speaker 2: Really yeah, well yeah, but but I think for Boston

1737
01:23:51,640 --> 01:23:54,200
Speaker 2: it seems more glaring because a lot of people will

1738
01:23:54,240 --> 01:23:56,799
Speaker 2: put them as like the like the Lakers can't score.

1739
01:23:57,200 --> 01:23:58,840
Speaker 2: It's like, okay, well they had that problem this year

1740
01:23:58,840 --> 01:24:02,200
Speaker 2: at times right where they can't shoot. But Boston, the

1741
01:24:02,320 --> 01:24:06,280
Speaker 2: potential is so high for them because of as you mentioned,

1742
01:24:06,720 --> 01:24:08,519
Speaker 2: the depth and the players they have that when they

1743
01:24:08,600 --> 01:24:12,920
Speaker 2: have those lolls, it feels even bigger than other teams

1744
01:24:13,560 --> 01:24:17,000
Speaker 2: who go through those moments. When they have those moments,

1745
01:24:17,160 --> 01:24:18,280
Speaker 2: it didn't feel quite the same.

1746
01:24:19,600 --> 01:24:22,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, you say again we talk about that term of expectations.

1747
01:24:22,760 --> 01:24:25,599
Speaker 1: Why the coach of Milwaukee got fired because they were

1748
01:24:25,800 --> 01:24:27,960
Speaker 1: number one. Everybody expected them to either go to the

1749
01:24:28,040 --> 01:24:30,400
Speaker 1: finals or win it all. I think there's a similar

1750
01:24:30,439 --> 01:24:32,599
Speaker 1: situation right now with Boston, although there were two seed

1751
01:24:32,840 --> 01:24:34,760
Speaker 1: not a one seed, and I think that people are

1752
01:24:34,840 --> 01:24:37,040
Speaker 1: expecting Boston to win it will the coach get fired

1753
01:24:37,040 --> 01:24:38,120
Speaker 1: if they don't, I don't think so.

1754
01:24:38,240 --> 01:24:41,840
Speaker 2: Well, But also thirty three in his first year because

1755
01:24:41,840 --> 01:24:47,520
Speaker 2: of what happened with Imidoku. They're the I mean, they're

1756
01:24:47,560 --> 01:24:50,040
Speaker 2: the home seed now right because the first seed lost

1757
01:24:50,120 --> 01:24:53,519
Speaker 2: and Miami again, Miami is going to beat the Knicks.

1758
01:24:54,760 --> 01:24:57,280
Speaker 2: I just Miami's just not deep enough to be Boston

1759
01:24:57,320 --> 01:25:01,200
Speaker 2: over a seven game series. So I think Boston is

1760
01:25:01,600 --> 01:25:06,320
Speaker 2: most likely going to end up in the finals. And again,

1761
01:25:06,360 --> 01:25:08,720
Speaker 2: who they play, It appears to be Denver right now.

1762
01:25:08,760 --> 01:25:11,800
Speaker 2: It's playing some some really good basketball. They're kind of

1763
01:25:11,840 --> 01:25:14,599
Speaker 2: a filling as they're healthy now for the first time

1764
01:25:14,600 --> 01:25:17,240
Speaker 2: in the playoffs in a couple of years. They're fulfilling

1765
01:25:18,680 --> 01:25:21,080
Speaker 2: kind of their their destiny. It feels like this year

1766
01:25:21,680 --> 01:25:23,040
Speaker 2: and getting to the NBA Finals.

1767
01:25:23,560 --> 01:25:26,519
Speaker 1: Yeah, and we talk about that Denver Phoenix series. I

1768
01:25:26,560 --> 01:25:29,000
Speaker 1: look at that game the other night and KD puts

1769
01:25:29,000 --> 01:25:32,760
Speaker 1: in thirty nine, Devin Booker scores forty seven. This team

1770
01:25:32,800 --> 01:25:35,080
Speaker 1: shot fifty percent from the field. I mean, you just

1771
01:25:35,120 --> 01:25:37,599
Speaker 1: look at the stats. Fifty percent for the field, thirty

1772
01:25:37,640 --> 01:25:40,720
Speaker 1: two percent from threes. I mean, and again we talk

1773
01:25:40,760 --> 01:25:43,760
Speaker 1: about superstars to talk about guys that are tremendous plays

1774
01:25:43,760 --> 01:25:46,280
Speaker 1: that maybe you pay to watch. I would put on

1775
01:25:46,360 --> 01:25:49,559
Speaker 1: that list. Obviously, Steph Curry's there. I think Jimmy Butler's

1776
01:25:49,680 --> 01:25:51,599
Speaker 1: another guy I want to see play. I'm putting Devin

1777
01:25:51,640 --> 01:25:52,840
Speaker 1: Booker on that list as well.

1778
01:25:53,439 --> 01:25:55,280
Speaker 2: The Suns have one way to win this is it.

1779
01:25:55,720 --> 01:25:58,200
Speaker 2: Forty seven from Booker and thirty nine were going direct.

1780
01:25:58,960 --> 01:26:03,720
Speaker 2: That's it. If those guys score eighty points, yeah they're

1781
01:26:03,760 --> 01:26:06,639
Speaker 2: gonna win, or really ninety in this case, near ninety points.

1782
01:26:07,560 --> 01:26:12,120
Speaker 2: If they score seventy two points, we're not gonna win

1783
01:26:12,160 --> 01:26:20,280
Speaker 2: the game. So it feels quite simple for this series.

1784
01:26:20,680 --> 01:26:22,479
Speaker 2: The Nuggets are gonna score as much as they want

1785
01:26:22,520 --> 01:26:24,719
Speaker 2: anytime they want. Their defense not as good. At certain

1786
01:26:24,760 --> 01:26:27,160
Speaker 2: times they have been better than the playoffs. If Kevin

1787
01:26:27,240 --> 01:26:32,800
Speaker 2: Durant and Booker can score ninety points, okay, but good

1788
01:26:32,880 --> 01:26:35,680
Speaker 2: luck doing that all the time. I mean, that's a

1789
01:26:36,240 --> 01:26:40,400
Speaker 2: that's a heavy, heavy, heavy heavy bar to clear Andy

1790
01:26:41,040 --> 01:26:44,280
Speaker 2: every game. To need eighty ninety points from two players,

1791
01:26:44,479 --> 01:26:46,559
Speaker 2: I agree to have a chance to win where Denver

1792
01:26:46,760 --> 01:26:49,760
Speaker 2: can get that from four players or five players, I

1793
01:26:49,800 --> 01:26:52,120
Speaker 2: think they had. To your point, you said Boston had

1794
01:26:52,160 --> 01:26:54,559
Speaker 2: six players in double figures. I believe in Game two

1795
01:26:54,760 --> 01:26:59,479
Speaker 2: Denver had six players double figures as well. So again

1796
01:27:00,880 --> 01:27:06,240
Speaker 2: or maybe it was game one, can Phoenix. I don't

1797
01:27:06,240 --> 01:27:08,280
Speaker 2: think they can do this again tonight or today.

1798
01:27:08,439 --> 01:27:10,880
Speaker 1: I'm with you, and I think I think Denver has

1799
01:27:11,000 --> 01:27:13,880
Speaker 1: more ways to beat you. That's the keating Michael cord

1800
01:27:13,880 --> 01:27:15,680
Speaker 1: at junior at twenty one and twelve. The other day,

1801
01:27:15,920 --> 01:27:21,240
Speaker 1: Jokis thirty seventeen boards, seventeen assists, Jamal Murray thirty two,

1802
01:27:22,000 --> 01:27:24,960
Speaker 1: Bruce Brown off the bench he had eleven, So just

1803
01:27:25,120 --> 01:27:27,880
Speaker 1: so many ways. And again Phoenix, and then we talked

1804
01:27:27,880 --> 01:27:31,040
Speaker 1: about the expectation factor. I don't think it's really there

1805
01:27:31,080 --> 01:27:33,640
Speaker 1: in Phoenix. Was they entered as a four seed, and

1806
01:27:33,880 --> 01:27:36,920
Speaker 1: I think maybe that change when they obtained Kevin Durant.

1807
01:27:37,040 --> 01:27:39,720
Speaker 2: But the expectation is to win a championship, there's no.

1808
01:27:40,160 --> 01:27:42,320
Speaker 1: There's no I think everybody when you're in the playoffs,

1809
01:27:42,320 --> 01:27:45,599
Speaker 1: I think that's everybody's expectation. But as far as public

1810
01:27:45,840 --> 01:27:49,840
Speaker 1: consumption on that, maybe when KD came aboard it changed

1811
01:27:49,880 --> 01:27:50,360
Speaker 1: a little bit.

1812
01:27:51,000 --> 01:27:53,280
Speaker 2: It did, But I do think again it is worth

1813
01:27:53,360 --> 01:27:57,800
Speaker 2: pointing out that, you know, it does take some time

1814
01:27:58,320 --> 01:28:01,560
Speaker 2: in basketball for chemistry to form right and if you

1815
01:28:01,600 --> 01:28:04,240
Speaker 2: watch like the Warriors play man, the way they move

1816
01:28:04,320 --> 01:28:06,880
Speaker 2: the ball and the way that they play with each

1817
01:28:06,920 --> 01:28:09,800
Speaker 2: other and make kind of the extra pass, and the

1818
01:28:09,840 --> 01:28:12,240
Speaker 2: way they rotate on defense, and they have different ways

1819
01:28:12,240 --> 01:28:16,400
Speaker 2: to score. That's just the chemistry right this Clay and

1820
01:28:16,800 --> 01:28:21,519
Speaker 2: Steph and Draymond team. The Sons have played like twenty

1821
01:28:21,640 --> 01:28:27,680
Speaker 2: games with Chris Paul and Booker and Kevin Durant. It

1822
01:28:27,920 --> 01:28:31,640
Speaker 2: just it takes time. And yeah, the expectations are I

1823
01:28:31,840 --> 01:28:34,160
Speaker 2: believe correct and NBA Tower of Bus this year, but

1824
01:28:34,320 --> 01:28:37,799
Speaker 2: also have Durant in this core for another couple of seasons.

1825
01:28:38,360 --> 01:28:41,880
Speaker 2: So even though it might not work this year, I

1826
01:28:41,960 --> 01:28:44,200
Speaker 2: think you give them a full offseason, a full training camp,

1827
01:28:44,320 --> 01:28:49,120
Speaker 2: a full year. I think they will benefit from this

1828
01:28:49,360 --> 01:28:52,559
Speaker 2: next year and will probably play better basketball next year

1829
01:28:52,560 --> 01:28:53,200
Speaker 2: than they are now.

1830
01:28:54,040 --> 01:28:56,240
Speaker 1: You know, I'm looking at the playoffs as a whole,

1831
01:28:56,560 --> 01:28:59,200
Speaker 1: and there's not really one team that kind of glaringly

1832
01:28:59,320 --> 01:29:02,040
Speaker 1: stands out, and I wouldn't be surprised if anybody wins it.

1833
01:29:02,120 --> 01:29:04,920
Speaker 1: You know, if the Lakers, if Golden State, then did

1834
01:29:04,960 --> 01:29:08,200
Speaker 1: there's a Sony. Again, there's no one that's really out there.

1835
01:29:08,479 --> 01:29:10,320
Speaker 1: And again I'll go back to Thursday night when the

1836
01:29:10,400 --> 01:29:13,120
Speaker 1: Lakers were playing Golden State and the Lakers really stuck

1837
01:29:13,200 --> 01:29:16,040
Speaker 1: up to joint. I tell you fans deserve better. That's

1838
01:29:16,120 --> 01:29:18,760
Speaker 1: stunk after the third quarter right there, I should the TV.

1839
01:29:19,280 --> 01:29:20,040
Speaker 1: It was embarrassing.

1840
01:29:20,360 --> 01:29:25,920
Speaker 2: Last night wasn't great. I think that the Lakers again,

1841
01:29:26,040 --> 01:29:28,800
Speaker 2: like we thought about different ways to win. The Sons

1842
01:29:28,840 --> 01:29:31,160
Speaker 2: have one way to win, Booker and and and a half.

1843
01:29:31,360 --> 01:29:33,599
Speaker 2: Booker and you're gonna have to have eighty ninety points,

1844
01:29:34,120 --> 01:29:38,320
Speaker 2: right the Lakers, you know they if AD's got twenty

1845
01:29:38,360 --> 01:29:41,439
Speaker 2: five points, are gonna win most games, right, and they can't.

1846
01:29:41,680 --> 01:29:43,960
Speaker 2: You can't lose an a D game where he plays well,

1847
01:29:45,200 --> 01:29:47,360
Speaker 2: you know, when Russell has order Russell ended up.

1848
01:29:47,320 --> 01:29:50,200
Speaker 1: With last night over twenty twenty one one in the

1849
01:29:50,240 --> 01:29:50,679
Speaker 1: first AF.

1850
01:29:51,760 --> 01:29:55,000
Speaker 2: Like, when you have those games, the Lakers are gonna win.

1851
01:29:55,520 --> 01:29:58,559
Speaker 2: But you're very reliant on a D having twenty five

1852
01:29:58,640 --> 01:30:03,479
Speaker 2: points and thirty points. If if is not you gonna

1853
01:30:03,479 --> 01:30:07,960
Speaker 2: have that, I'm gonna win because Lebron is thirty eight

1854
01:30:08,080 --> 01:30:11,200
Speaker 2: years old with sixty seven thousand minutes. I think it is.

1855
01:30:11,920 --> 01:30:15,559
Speaker 2: You're just you're not gonna Lebron can't do it every

1856
01:30:15,640 --> 01:30:17,880
Speaker 2: night today like well, you had last night twenty two points,

1857
01:30:17,960 --> 01:30:20,680
Speaker 2: twenty three points. I think he has not scored more

1858
01:30:20,720 --> 01:30:23,760
Speaker 2: than what twenty two point in the game in the

1859
01:30:23,760 --> 01:30:24,800
Speaker 2: playoffs this year, maybe right.

1860
01:30:24,840 --> 01:30:27,679
Speaker 1: But you know what, and I think he's realizing, yes,

1861
01:30:28,200 --> 01:30:30,080
Speaker 1: I can't do it every night. I need the rest.

1862
01:30:30,120 --> 01:30:32,639
Speaker 1: But more than that, they changed it when the trade

1863
01:30:32,680 --> 01:30:35,519
Speaker 1: deadline was there in February when they got D'Angelo Russell.

1864
01:30:35,840 --> 01:30:38,760
Speaker 1: Reeves has come aboard. Davis is healthy that he's playing,

1865
01:30:38,960 --> 01:30:41,439
Speaker 1: so he has other outlets right now to help him.

1866
01:30:41,560 --> 01:30:44,240
Speaker 1: It was all him before. As you mentioned earlier. He

1867
01:30:44,280 --> 01:30:46,599
Speaker 1: didn't take a field goal shot in the first quarter

1868
01:30:46,640 --> 01:30:47,759
Speaker 1: at all yesterday.

1869
01:30:48,040 --> 01:30:52,439
Speaker 2: But I don't think but I just don't think he can.

1870
01:30:53,360 --> 01:30:59,599
Speaker 2: He can't physically do it for the level again. At

1871
01:30:59,640 --> 01:31:05,080
Speaker 2: some point, Andy, no matter how incredible of a freak

1872
01:31:05,240 --> 01:31:08,280
Speaker 2: athlete you are, and Lebron obviously is, at some point

1873
01:31:08,400 --> 01:31:11,519
Speaker 2: it just becomes you just age kicks over. And you

1874
01:31:11,640 --> 01:31:13,680
Speaker 2: know last night, you know when he was making those

1875
01:31:13,760 --> 01:31:16,519
Speaker 2: hustle plays, especially on the defense, he was chasing down

1876
01:31:16,640 --> 01:31:20,160
Speaker 2: the ball game. He was gassed, dude. And this is

1877
01:31:20,280 --> 01:31:23,200
Speaker 2: Game three and they get one day off and they're

1878
01:31:23,200 --> 01:31:26,760
Speaker 2: playing again tomorrow now, So it's not this is not

1879
01:31:26,920 --> 01:31:30,160
Speaker 2: all slight Lebron because he still is able to obviously

1880
01:31:30,280 --> 01:31:33,240
Speaker 2: have moments where he is incredible in the court, but

1881
01:31:33,360 --> 01:31:36,280
Speaker 2: he's not going him for forty anymore. He's just he

1882
01:31:36,400 --> 01:31:37,800
Speaker 2: might have one game where he does that. But also

1883
01:31:37,840 --> 01:31:39,800
Speaker 2: his three point shooting is not is not good right now,

1884
01:31:39,880 --> 01:31:41,920
Speaker 2: so he's not even making some of those shots you

1885
01:31:42,040 --> 01:31:43,439
Speaker 2: sort of need, I think at times to get to

1886
01:31:43,520 --> 01:31:45,840
Speaker 2: forty points. It's just not what he's not what his

1887
01:31:45,920 --> 01:31:47,840
Speaker 2: game is going to be anymore. That's why a D

1888
01:31:48,040 --> 01:31:49,519
Speaker 2: is there, so why they brought it to your point

1889
01:31:49,520 --> 01:31:53,240
Speaker 2: about Russell. But when the Lakers have games where a

1890
01:31:53,439 --> 01:31:56,400
Speaker 2: D and a third party, whether it's Russell or how

1891
01:31:56,479 --> 01:31:58,840
Speaker 2: Chamore or Austin Reeve or someone else, is able to

1892
01:31:58,880 --> 01:32:01,519
Speaker 2: score in the twenties, they're not going to lose many games.

1893
01:32:01,840 --> 01:32:04,519
Speaker 1: They're just not right, you know what. And that's great

1894
01:32:04,680 --> 01:32:06,720
Speaker 1: and it's great to break it down like that, But see,

1895
01:32:06,960 --> 01:32:08,680
Speaker 1: I think I have a different point of view though

1896
01:32:08,680 --> 01:32:11,360
Speaker 1: I tell you why, and you're right about the Lebron situation.

1897
01:32:11,479 --> 01:32:14,120
Speaker 1: But yesterday the Lakers shot and this is amazing. It

1898
01:32:14,160 --> 01:32:16,560
Speaker 1: won't happen again. I promise you you won't see this

1899
01:32:16,720 --> 01:32:18,920
Speaker 1: in any playoff game. Begin with them, they shot over

1900
01:32:19,000 --> 01:32:22,160
Speaker 1: fifty percent from the field forty two for eighty that's unreal.

1901
01:32:22,560 --> 01:32:25,000
Speaker 1: Then they shot fifteen for thirty one from three for

1902
01:32:25,120 --> 01:32:25,519
Speaker 1: forty one.

1903
01:32:26,240 --> 01:32:27,519
Speaker 2: That's what you won't see the three points.

1904
01:32:27,560 --> 01:32:29,680
Speaker 1: You won't see that, and you won't see from the

1905
01:32:29,760 --> 01:32:33,160
Speaker 1: Golden State thirteen for forty four from three for twenty

1906
01:32:33,280 --> 01:32:35,920
Speaker 1: nine percent. It was to day it was bathed. It's

1907
01:32:35,960 --> 01:32:38,120
Speaker 1: one of those nights. So I think at the end

1908
01:32:38,120 --> 01:32:40,760
Speaker 1: of the day, I think that Golden State probably will

1909
01:32:40,800 --> 01:32:43,040
Speaker 1: win the series. I'd love to see the Lakers win

1910
01:32:43,160 --> 01:32:45,559
Speaker 1: it because I know you love the Lakers. That's one

1911
01:32:45,560 --> 01:32:47,280
Speaker 1: of the reasons. But more than that, I'd like to

1912
01:32:47,280 --> 01:32:49,519
Speaker 1: see Lebrono. I really like to see it go further

1913
01:32:49,600 --> 01:32:50,439
Speaker 1: in the playoffs.

1914
01:32:51,000 --> 01:32:53,400
Speaker 2: The Warriors, though, are just so much fun to watch.

1915
01:32:53,760 --> 01:32:57,320
Speaker 2: I they really are, and you know, them continuing to play.

1916
01:32:57,320 --> 01:32:59,200
Speaker 2: It's just a fun branded basketball to watch.

1917
01:33:00,080 --> 01:33:01,080
Speaker 1: Baseball should be played.

1918
01:33:01,800 --> 01:33:04,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, what Steph Curry. Just the ability of Steph Curry

1919
01:33:04,880 --> 01:33:08,360
Speaker 2: to just create offense. You know, the Lakers are doing

1920
01:33:08,360 --> 01:33:11,640
Speaker 2: everything they can to double him, to hedge screens and

1921
01:33:11,840 --> 01:33:13,800
Speaker 2: to make life tough for him. His ability to pass

1922
01:33:13,880 --> 01:33:15,599
Speaker 2: the ball, it's just it's fun to watch him play.

1923
01:33:16,240 --> 01:33:19,800
Speaker 2: The Lakers Game three, Game four is gonna mean a lot, right,

1924
01:33:20,040 --> 01:33:22,040
Speaker 2: If they can steal game four, you feel pretty good.

1925
01:33:22,160 --> 01:33:25,720
Speaker 2: If it goes back to Golden State, at back up

1926
01:33:25,720 --> 01:33:29,439
Speaker 2: to Oakland and San Francisco, now to to if it

1927
01:33:29,560 --> 01:33:31,519
Speaker 2: wass a seven game series to me, and then at

1928
01:33:31,560 --> 01:33:33,680
Speaker 2: seven game you know, and maybe in game seven we

1929
01:33:33,800 --> 01:33:36,200
Speaker 2: get Vintor's Lebron He says, look, you know what's what

1930
01:33:36,640 --> 01:33:38,880
Speaker 2: we've been waiting for. I'm going for forty tonight and

1931
01:33:38,920 --> 01:33:41,240
Speaker 2: the Lakers win. But we haven't seen that from Lebron.

1932
01:33:41,360 --> 01:33:43,360
Speaker 2: And it's okay. He's getting older. It's okay if he

1933
01:33:43,400 --> 01:33:46,120
Speaker 2: has the Knights where he says, you know what's while

1934
01:33:46,120 --> 01:33:47,840
Speaker 2: we brought in all these players. We brought in these

1935
01:33:47,880 --> 01:33:51,040
Speaker 2: guys so they can supplement what I can do on

1936
01:33:51,080 --> 01:33:51,400
Speaker 2: the court.

1937
01:33:52,600 --> 01:33:55,560
Speaker 1: Now, now I'm gonna dump on the whole situation. To me,

1938
01:33:56,120 --> 01:33:58,680
Speaker 1: these playoffs, in my mind, it seemed like to've been

1939
01:33:58,680 --> 01:34:01,200
Speaker 1: going on for years. It's just to me, I think

1940
01:34:01,200 --> 01:34:03,880
Speaker 1: it's too long. Maybe I'm crazy. I mean, how do

1941
01:34:03,960 --> 01:34:05,720
Speaker 1: you feel about that? I just I think like they're

1942
01:34:05,720 --> 01:34:06,240
Speaker 1: never ending.

1943
01:34:06,560 --> 01:34:09,400
Speaker 2: I mean, it's a whole different season and the NBA

1944
01:34:09,439 --> 01:34:12,000
Speaker 2: purposely does that obviously, right for ratings and whatnot, to

1945
01:34:12,040 --> 01:34:14,320
Speaker 2: get people more interested in the sport. I mean, it's

1946
01:34:14,320 --> 01:34:17,840
Speaker 2: a whole other season, right, It's three months, three months,

1947
01:34:17,920 --> 01:34:24,519
Speaker 2: right right, and it's a long season, and it feels excessive.

1948
01:34:24,840 --> 01:34:28,280
Speaker 2: But I don't know, Andy, I'm never gonna say no

1949
01:34:28,400 --> 01:34:29,400
Speaker 2: to watching more sports.

1950
01:34:30,200 --> 01:34:32,320
Speaker 1: I'm with you there, And it's a different game. They

1951
01:34:32,360 --> 01:34:36,479
Speaker 1: step it up playoff basketball, playoff baseball, playoff period is

1952
01:34:36,560 --> 01:34:38,439
Speaker 1: a different element. They step it up. All these athletes do.

1953
01:34:38,520 --> 01:34:40,679
Speaker 1: But I don't think it's fair, not only to the fans,

1954
01:34:40,720 --> 01:34:42,800
Speaker 1: but to the athletes themselves. As I said going into

1955
01:34:42,880 --> 01:34:45,360
Speaker 1: the segment, it's the team that's the healthiest is going

1956
01:34:45,400 --> 01:34:48,000
Speaker 1: to win, not necessarily the best. And the more games

1957
01:34:48,040 --> 01:34:50,320
Speaker 1: you play during the year, the more chance of injury.

1958
01:34:51,280 --> 01:34:53,040
Speaker 2: Right. Well, then the argument is do we make the

1959
01:34:53,080 --> 01:34:54,880
Speaker 2: regular season shorter? Right?

1960
01:34:55,080 --> 01:34:57,080
Speaker 1: Well, I mean we talked about this early on. I

1961
01:34:57,160 --> 01:34:59,040
Speaker 1: think the early rounds of the players should be best

1962
01:34:59,040 --> 01:35:00,880
Speaker 1: three out of five. That stuff gonna happen.

1963
01:35:00,920 --> 01:35:04,200
Speaker 2: Again, No, it's not gonna happen. But you know, I

1964
01:35:04,520 --> 01:35:08,080
Speaker 2: understand NBA players want in the season short because of

1965
01:35:08,080 --> 01:35:13,120
Speaker 2: the playoffs are so long, and I understand their point

1966
01:35:13,160 --> 01:35:15,400
Speaker 2: because it's so it's a haul to play the postseason.

1967
01:35:15,479 --> 01:35:18,200
Speaker 2: But the injury thing, andy is in every sport, right,

1968
01:35:18,280 --> 01:35:21,200
Speaker 2: I mean, you know, football, you look at the at

1969
01:35:21,240 --> 01:35:23,400
Speaker 2: the healthiest teams in the offer of the teams playing

1970
01:35:23,439 --> 01:35:26,439
Speaker 2: in the Super Bowl. You look at you know, baseball.

1971
01:35:26,439 --> 01:35:28,760
Speaker 2: Obviously it's a little different situation. But you know, if

1972
01:35:28,760 --> 01:35:32,240
Speaker 2: you're if you're starting pitching is intact in the postseason,

1973
01:35:32,840 --> 01:35:35,040
Speaker 2: you're you're probably in a pretty good ship, right if.

1974
01:35:34,960 --> 01:35:36,519
Speaker 1: You But I don't want to see the Miami Heat

1975
01:35:36,560 --> 01:35:37,840
Speaker 1: losing and they said, well, if we would have had

1976
01:35:37,880 --> 01:35:39,960
Speaker 1: Jimmy Butler, I don't want to see Phoenix losing. Well,

1977
01:35:40,160 --> 01:35:41,840
Speaker 1: if Chris Paul would have played, we would have won.

1978
01:35:42,280 --> 01:35:44,799
Speaker 2: Sure, But Chris Paul's heard every off season, every postseason,

1979
01:35:44,840 --> 01:35:48,120
Speaker 2: so it doesn't really change anything, right, So, like, I

1980
01:35:48,560 --> 01:35:50,680
Speaker 2: get those excuses are built in when when teams are

1981
01:35:50,800 --> 01:35:53,400
Speaker 2: are are out, but I don't know, they're just excuses

1982
01:35:53,479 --> 01:35:55,120
Speaker 2: right in the end. So I don't know, I don't

1983
01:35:55,160 --> 01:36:00,519
Speaker 2: really I don't care if if people make those excuses whatever.

1984

Speaker 1: I hear you, Okay, all right, here's Jeff Schwartz. If

1991
01:36:19,280 --> 01:36:22,320
Speaker 1: They got the blame game at the end of this album.

1992
01:36:22,439 --> 01:36:26,160
Speaker 1: Right now, America's team is running on empty.

1993
01:36:26,479 --> 01:36:27,040
Speaker 2: That's next.

1994
01:36:29,200 --> 01:36:32,560
Speaker 1: Where's the one two punch that's coming right up? He

1995
01:36:32,800 --> 01:36:36,599
Speaker 1: is Jeff Schwartz, I'm Andy Furman. This is Fox Sports

1996
01:36:36,640 --> 01:36:39,679
Speaker 1: Sunday on Fox Sports Radio Live from the tay Iraq

1997
01:36:39,800 --> 01:36:43,360
Speaker 1: dot Com studios, and we talk about America's team. I said,

1998
01:36:43,400 --> 01:36:46,519
Speaker 1: they're running on empty. Why is it that they're still

1999
01:36:46,600 --> 01:36:49,400
Speaker 1: being called America's team? They can't even win a playoff

2000
01:36:49,439 --> 01:36:52,120
Speaker 1: game and they're still America's team. Are you surprised about that?

2001
01:36:53,600 --> 01:36:54,160
Speaker 2: The Cowboys?

2002
01:36:54,600 --> 01:36:54,840
Speaker 1: Yeah?

2003
01:36:55,280 --> 01:36:57,920
Speaker 2: Yeah? Who is? Who is America's team?

2004
01:36:58,000 --> 01:36:58,240
Speaker 5: Now? Like?

2005
01:36:58,240 --> 01:37:00,200
Speaker 2: Who who would you? Who would you volunteer a.

2006
01:37:00,439 --> 01:37:04,719
Speaker 1: Good question America's team about football sticking the football? I'd

2007
01:37:04,720 --> 01:37:06,240
Speaker 1: have to say maybe the Kansas City Chiefs.

2008
01:37:06,479 --> 01:37:08,920
Speaker 2: It has to be the Chiefs. Yeah. I do think

2009
01:37:08,960 --> 01:37:11,479
Speaker 2: that the country is generally rooting for like the Bills

2010
01:37:11,600 --> 01:37:14,679
Speaker 2: to in like in the Bengals, to like win a championship.

2011
01:37:14,720 --> 01:37:18,920
Speaker 1: Though you think, yeah, well maybe what happened with DeMar

2012
01:37:19,000 --> 01:37:20,880
Speaker 1: I mean, obviously he's gonna be I.

2013
01:37:21,040 --> 01:37:23,240
Speaker 2: Think the Bills, like I think that the Bills with

2014
01:37:23,439 --> 01:37:28,080
Speaker 2: all their failures in the nineties, and I think people

2015
01:37:28,120 --> 01:37:30,000
Speaker 2: are are like just I feel like that there's a

2016
01:37:30,080 --> 01:37:35,240
Speaker 2: big like Bills and now with the Bengals. People like

2017
01:37:35,360 --> 01:37:41,560
Speaker 2: to see not underdog, but they sort of are in

2018
01:37:41,960 --> 01:37:44,760
Speaker 2: a sense. They don't see underdogs win men, and.

2019
01:37:44,800 --> 01:37:46,280
Speaker 1: So they want to see new faces too.

2020
01:37:46,360 --> 01:37:49,439
Speaker 2: I think, yeah, key, and so I think that the

2021
01:37:49,520 --> 01:37:51,639
Speaker 2: Bills and Bengals are are going to be are kind

2022
01:37:51,640 --> 01:37:55,679
Speaker 2: of maybe adopted as America's new America's team.

2023
01:37:56,560 --> 01:38:00,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean that America's team. The Moniker I think

2024
01:38:00,920 --> 01:38:03,200
Speaker 1: is been getting tarnished a little bit in Dallas. It

2025
01:38:03,280 --> 01:38:06,120
Speaker 1: really is. They gotta be, yeah, I really do. But

2026
01:38:06,400 --> 01:38:08,479
Speaker 1: they've got a pretty good story going on here. At

2027
01:38:08,479 --> 01:38:10,920
Speaker 1: the end of the draft, the Dallas Cowboys, they draft

2028
01:38:10,920 --> 01:38:14,200
Speaker 1: they're running back Deuce Vaughan. His dad is the assistant

2029
01:38:14,240 --> 01:38:18,000
Speaker 1: director of scouting for the team Dallas. Really and maybe

2030
01:38:18,000 --> 01:38:20,680
Speaker 1: I'm mistaken on this, but They've always been identified with

2031
01:38:20,800 --> 01:38:24,360
Speaker 1: the run game, and now they released Ezekiel Elliott back

2032
01:38:24,400 --> 01:38:27,479
Speaker 1: in March. Although Twelfthy maybe coming back, I don't think so.

2033
01:38:27,840 --> 01:38:30,320
Speaker 1: And they're missing that one two punch with Tony Pollard.

2034
01:38:30,720 --> 01:38:33,360
Speaker 1: Vaughn is a sixth round pick out of Kansas State.

2035
01:38:33,560 --> 01:38:36,160
Speaker 1: This kid's five foot five. Yeah, I don't even know

2036
01:38:36,160 --> 01:38:38,120
Speaker 1: if it's going to make the team. Well what are

2037
01:38:38,120 --> 01:38:39,280
Speaker 1: they doing there in Dallas.

2038
01:38:39,760 --> 01:38:42,040
Speaker 2: Well, he's a late round pick. You can take chances

2039
01:38:42,080 --> 01:38:45,720
Speaker 2: on on late round picks. That feels okay to do.

2040
01:38:47,520 --> 01:38:50,160
Speaker 2: You know the thing about Dallas, it's it's frustrating, is

2041
01:38:50,280 --> 01:38:53,880
Speaker 2: like they're very talented and even the NFC right now

2042
01:38:54,840 --> 01:38:58,559
Speaker 2: and you go Eagles Niners, who don't have a quarterback

2043
01:38:58,720 --> 01:39:01,920
Speaker 2: really healthy at the moment, and then who but the

2044
01:39:02,000 --> 01:39:04,400
Speaker 2: Cowboys are next. The Cowboys are really talented, but they

2045
01:39:04,560 --> 01:39:07,400
Speaker 2: never put it together. Man, they just never put it together.

2046
01:39:08,320 --> 01:39:10,800
Speaker 2: And so yeah, I think that's really the hard part

2047
01:39:10,880 --> 01:39:12,760
Speaker 2: about about picking them each year is you're like, man,

2048
01:39:12,840 --> 01:39:16,960
Speaker 2: they are a talented team, but for whatever reason, it

2049
01:39:17,120 --> 01:39:19,120
Speaker 2: never goes their way. And part of it, I think

2050
01:39:19,240 --> 01:39:23,599
Speaker 2: is that dak is, you know, not elite, just good

2051
01:39:25,400 --> 01:39:28,599
Speaker 2: and they just had haven't had that playoff success recently.

2052
01:39:29,200 --> 01:39:30,880
Speaker 1: Okay, now I'm gonna put you on the spot. Not

2053
01:39:31,000 --> 01:39:32,759
Speaker 1: that I want to, but I'm gonna do it anyway.

2054
01:39:33,280 --> 01:39:36,000
Speaker 1: Now that Aaron Rodgers is out of the NFC, who

2055
01:39:36,040 --> 01:39:40,120
Speaker 1: were the who was quarterbacks one and two in the NFC,

2056
01:39:41,040 --> 01:39:44,280
Speaker 1: the top two quarterbacks in the entire NFC, I'll give

2057
01:39:44,280 --> 01:39:45,960
Speaker 1: you my picks. Should I go first?

2058
01:39:46,120 --> 01:39:48,920
Speaker 2: I mean it's gotta be Jalen Hurts and Dak Prescott, right.

2059
01:39:49,120 --> 01:39:51,000
Speaker 1: I would say Jalen Hurts and Kirk Cousins.

2060
01:39:52,600 --> 01:39:52,800
Speaker 2: Yeah.

2061
01:39:52,920 --> 01:39:56,040
Speaker 1: Cousins is so like they look at his stats, right,

2062
01:39:57,439 --> 01:39:58,000
Speaker 1: Cousins is.

2063
01:39:58,280 --> 01:40:07,240
Speaker 2: Just he's so just Kirk Cousins, Like you know it

2064
01:40:07,479 --> 01:40:14,080
Speaker 2: just he just doesn't inspire that confidence that you're going

2065
01:40:14,360 --> 01:40:18,080
Speaker 2: to win a championship with him, right. And I think

2066
01:40:18,120 --> 01:40:21,000
Speaker 2: that's the hardest part about about him is is, yeah,

2067
01:40:21,680 --> 01:40:24,719
Speaker 2: the stats are good sometimes, but his record in primetime games,

2068
01:40:24,760 --> 01:40:28,160
Speaker 2: his record in the playoffs, he's won one playoff.

2069
01:40:27,840 --> 01:40:29,439
Speaker 1: Game, you lose it to the Giants.

2070
01:40:29,479 --> 01:40:35,040
Speaker 2: Didn't help in his Vikings career. So it's just really

2071
01:40:35,200 --> 01:40:38,880
Speaker 2: hard I think to I agree that he probably doesn't

2072
01:40:38,880 --> 01:40:44,000
Speaker 2: get the amount of attention he should for the play

2073
01:40:44,080 --> 01:40:47,000
Speaker 2: that he has during his career. But the hard part

2074
01:40:47,160 --> 01:40:50,960
Speaker 2: is I think a lot of us sort of know

2075
01:40:51,920 --> 01:40:54,400
Speaker 2: the end game in Minnesota, like, oh yeah, yeah, they're

2076
01:40:54,400 --> 01:40:55,920
Speaker 2: gonna a lot of record hit games, but they're not

2077
01:40:56,000 --> 01:40:56,839
Speaker 2: do anything the postseason.

2078
01:40:57,200 --> 01:40:58,960
Speaker 1: He got a whole attention for it for lack of

2079
01:40:59,600 --> 01:41:02,040
Speaker 1: COVID vaccination than as a quarterback.

2080
01:41:02,520 --> 01:41:06,000
Speaker 2: Really, so how much attention are we going to put

2081
01:41:06,760 --> 01:41:10,880
Speaker 2: into caring about the Vikings? And caring about cousins and

2082
01:41:11,560 --> 01:41:14,880
Speaker 2: the Lions seemed way more fun than the Vikings? Do

2083
01:41:15,840 --> 01:41:19,920
Speaker 2: you know the Packers obviously, you know Jordan Love. I'm

2084
01:41:19,960 --> 01:41:24,559
Speaker 2: curious how their season goes. The Bears, you know, justin Fields.

2085
01:41:24,680 --> 01:41:26,639
Speaker 2: Their roster is just not quite there at the moment,

2086
01:41:27,120 --> 01:41:29,760
Speaker 2: but Fields to be fun to watch. The Vikings just

2087
01:41:29,880 --> 01:41:31,640
Speaker 2: we we fuck, we know the endgame we go to

2088
01:41:31,640 --> 01:41:34,519
Speaker 2: the regular season, are can we win playoff games? How much?

2089
01:41:34,720 --> 01:41:38,320
Speaker 2: How much emotional investment are we gonna put in the Vikings?

2090
01:41:38,560 --> 01:41:38,680
Speaker 5: Right?

2091
01:41:39,000 --> 01:41:42,040
Speaker 1: But but it's funny because we both picked the same

2092
01:41:42,120 --> 01:41:45,160
Speaker 1: two teams. Basically, have you picked Dallas but we both

2093
01:41:45,320 --> 01:41:48,519
Speaker 1: bypassed San Francisco because they don't have a quarterback, right,

2094
01:41:48,760 --> 01:41:50,640
Speaker 1: there's a big quarterback question. But look where they did

2095
01:41:50,760 --> 01:41:53,360
Speaker 1: look how far they went without a quarterback.

2096
01:41:53,360 --> 01:41:56,200
Speaker 2: So you're obviously of a much different agent than me.

2097
01:41:57,439 --> 01:42:00,439
Speaker 2: It's not a bad thing. Just the facts, everyone, old guy,

2098
01:42:00,680 --> 01:42:05,240
Speaker 2: you know, I can't remember I came in the NFL

2099
01:42:05,280 --> 01:42:08,280
Speaker 2: two thousand and eight. I cannot remember a team since

2100
01:42:08,320 --> 01:42:11,240
Speaker 2: that two thousand and eight there's been as talented as

2101
01:42:11,280 --> 01:42:13,760
Speaker 2: the Niners that doesn't have a quarterback to win a championship.

2102
01:42:15,680 --> 01:42:17,760
Speaker 2: The Niners win total right now, I saw it was

2103
01:42:17,800 --> 01:42:21,559
Speaker 2: posted eleven and a half. At the current moment, they're

2104
01:42:21,600 --> 01:42:24,880
Speaker 2: starting like as Sam Darnold, okay, because brock Party is

2105
01:42:25,000 --> 01:42:28,160
Speaker 2: hurt and Trailing is hurt. Even if brock Party comes back,

2106
01:42:28,200 --> 01:42:31,040
Speaker 2: he's not going to play the level he played last year.

2107
01:42:31,560 --> 01:42:34,200
Speaker 2: And their win total is eleven. The Chiefs win total

2108
01:42:34,240 --> 01:42:36,519
Speaker 2: is eleven and a half, the Bengals and Eagles. So

2109
01:42:36,680 --> 01:42:38,880
Speaker 2: to the four teams eleven and a half. Winter what

2110
01:42:38,960 --> 01:42:41,280
Speaker 2: are the Bills? I believe the or ten and a half.

2111
01:42:41,920 --> 01:42:49,120
Speaker 2: I'm gonna look up. Yeah, I think they're let's see,

2112
01:42:49,240 --> 01:42:50,719
Speaker 2: uh win totals.

2113
01:42:50,720 --> 01:42:51,080
Speaker 5: Here we go.

2114
01:42:51,720 --> 01:42:54,120
Speaker 2: This is not this is post this is pre draft.

2115
01:42:55,920 --> 01:42:59,000
Speaker 2: So look look a here we go. This is probably

2116
01:42:59,040 --> 01:43:03,519
Speaker 2: post draft. Would we say Bills ten and a half. Yeah, okay, yeah,

2117
01:43:03,560 --> 01:43:08,680
Speaker 2: so yeah, Bengals eleven and a half, Chiefs eleven and

2118
01:43:08,720 --> 01:43:12,960
Speaker 2: a half. And then I said the Eagles are only

2119
01:43:13,000 --> 01:43:16,559
Speaker 2: ten and a half and the Niners what not. He's

2120
01:43:16,720 --> 01:43:18,400
Speaker 2: my eyeball eleven and a half of the Niners.

2121
01:43:18,520 --> 01:43:20,719
Speaker 1: But those but those stats are ridiculous. Post the NFL

2122
01:43:20,760 --> 01:43:22,400
Speaker 1: schedule hasn't even come out yet. They don't even know

2123
01:43:22,400 --> 01:43:23,000
Speaker 1: who they're playing.

2124
01:43:23,280 --> 01:43:25,800
Speaker 2: No, I mean we know who they're playing, we just

2125
01:43:25,800 --> 01:43:26,639
Speaker 2: don't know when they're playing.

2126
01:43:26,640 --> 01:43:30,320
Speaker 1: Then well, okay, fine, but the when can.

2127
01:43:30,360 --> 01:43:35,160
Speaker 2: Matter as far as travel schedule and injury and injuries

2128
01:43:35,240 --> 01:43:37,080
Speaker 2: and off of by like like who do you play

2129
01:43:37,120 --> 01:43:38,800
Speaker 2: off of buye when's you're by? And how much are

2130
01:43:38,840 --> 01:43:41,600
Speaker 2: you traveling? Or what? We all you having back to

2131
01:43:41,680 --> 01:43:44,800
Speaker 2: back road trips? Are you having back to back trips

2132
01:43:44,840 --> 01:43:47,599
Speaker 2: across the country? Are you're playing, you know, the early

2133
01:43:47,680 --> 01:43:49,559
Speaker 2: game on the West coast, I mean the East coast.

2134
01:43:49,600 --> 01:43:55,360
Speaker 2: I should say, like, there's there's things that that you

2135
01:43:55,400 --> 01:43:57,600
Speaker 2: can look for in the schedule that I think you

2136
01:43:57,640 --> 01:43:59,400
Speaker 2: give you a little bit of a hint on on

2137
01:43:59,680 --> 01:44:00,720
Speaker 2: what how a team might do it.

2138
01:44:00,840 --> 01:44:03,800
Speaker 1: So, so, how can these people give San Francisco double

2139
01:44:03,880 --> 01:44:06,680
Speaker 1: digit wins? When they don't have a quarterback.

2140
01:44:06,320 --> 01:44:10,439
Speaker 2: Because their roster is that good. They have they have

2141
01:44:10,680 --> 01:44:14,680
Speaker 2: a an elite player almost every position. Okay, left tackle, right,

2142
01:44:14,920 --> 01:44:19,240
Speaker 2: Trent Williams, best left tackle in NFL, Christian McCaffrey, Deebo

2143
01:44:19,360 --> 01:44:21,720
Speaker 2: Samuel right. So you have elite level players at the

2144
01:44:21,720 --> 01:44:24,400
Speaker 2: wide receiver position. In the running back you have. You

2145
01:44:24,479 --> 01:44:28,800
Speaker 2: have Bosa at pass rusher Armstead as well, so you

2146
01:44:28,880 --> 01:44:32,040
Speaker 2: have two elite pass rushers right there. You have Fred

2147
01:44:32,120 --> 01:44:35,679
Speaker 2: Warner possibly the best linebacker in the NFL.

2148
01:44:36,160 --> 01:44:37,840
Speaker 5: Like you have. You have.

2149
01:44:39,600 --> 01:44:42,679
Speaker 2: All these players that are the best of their position

2150
01:44:43,400 --> 01:44:47,760
Speaker 2: on one roster. That's why. And they can figure out quarterback,

2151
01:44:48,280 --> 01:44:50,880
Speaker 2: which again I don't think that brock Parties the guy

2152
01:44:51,000 --> 01:44:51,599
Speaker 2: to lead them.

2153
01:44:51,800 --> 01:44:54,200
Speaker 1: What was the last team and I'm trying to think

2154
01:44:54,320 --> 01:44:58,000
Speaker 1: now the last team that really had tremendous personnel but

2155
01:44:58,160 --> 01:45:02,080
Speaker 1: didn't have an elite quarterback or warback period that won something.

2156
01:45:02,120 --> 01:45:04,200
Speaker 1: I'm trying to think, really.

2157
01:45:04,360 --> 01:45:09,360
Speaker 2: It's no one. So Earl Marrow like Bolts, No, I

2158
01:45:09,400 --> 01:45:10,760
Speaker 2: mean you you could look at like, you know, like

2159
01:45:10,840 --> 01:45:14,240
Speaker 2: the you know, the Dilfer Bucks or something right, right,

2160
01:45:14,800 --> 01:45:17,280
Speaker 2: but that's it's years ago, right, or the who was

2161
01:45:17,320 --> 01:45:19,200
Speaker 2: there was was he with the Bucks or with the Ravens.

2162
01:45:19,200 --> 01:45:21,479
Speaker 2: Who was the Ravens quarterback in early two thousands that

2163
01:45:21,520 --> 01:45:25,280
Speaker 2: won the title, the first Ravens championship that was Dilfer?

2164
01:45:25,479 --> 01:45:30,479
Speaker 2: Was that Delfer who didn't matter? But something like that, right,

2165
01:45:30,560 --> 01:45:34,400
Speaker 2: like you just you're just hoping that that you know

2166
01:45:34,560 --> 01:45:36,640
Speaker 2: that everything breaks right for you. But the problem is

2167
01:45:37,560 --> 01:45:40,360
Speaker 2: is everything has to break right for you against either

2168
01:45:40,560 --> 01:45:44,760
Speaker 2: Mahomes Burrow or Allen or Herbert or Trevor Lawrence or

2169
01:45:45,120 --> 01:45:49,280
Speaker 2: Lamar Jackson in in in the postseason, in the Super

2170
01:45:49,320 --> 01:45:49,720
Speaker 2: Bowl like it.

2171
01:45:50,240 --> 01:45:52,280
Speaker 1: But I'll tell you something funny. You mentioned those great

2172
01:45:52,360 --> 01:45:55,200
Speaker 1: quarterback you mentioned like Borrow, God forbid it he goes

2173
01:45:55,280 --> 01:45:58,160
Speaker 1: down or Alan goes down. Those teams don't win. But

2174
01:45:58,280 --> 01:46:01,160
Speaker 1: San Francisco is so strong without a quarterback, this still

2175
01:46:01,280 --> 01:46:04,520
Speaker 1: predicted to win. Think about that, ye can her Borough

2176
01:46:04,680 --> 01:46:07,320
Speaker 1: or Allen go down? Forget if the season o tlams.

2177
01:46:07,400 --> 01:46:09,400
Speaker 2: But you're also but the Niners an't winning a championship

2178
01:46:09,400 --> 01:46:13,280
Speaker 2: either with the quarterback they have now and so but

2179
01:46:13,439 --> 01:46:15,960
Speaker 2: the Chiefs and Bangles and Bills and whatnot, their quarterback

2180
01:46:15,960 --> 01:46:17,680
Speaker 2: gets hurt. Yeah, they're not winning either. But if the

2181
01:46:17,760 --> 01:46:19,559
Speaker 2: quarterback says healthy, they are winning, they have a chest

2182
01:46:19,600 --> 01:46:20,839
Speaker 2: to win. It's it's just a big difference.

2183
01:46:21,479 --> 01:46:25,120
Speaker 1: There you go. Jeff Schwartz, Andy Furman, Fox Sports Sunday,

01:46:44,000 --> 01:46:47,240

Speaker 1: Thank you Andy and Jeff.

2193
01:46:52,080 --> 01:46:54,719
Speaker 4: And yes, last night we did see the Lakers dominate

2194
01:46:54,760 --> 01:46:56,920
Speaker 4: the Wars one twenty seven and ninety seven a Game

2195
01:46:57,000 --> 01:46:59,320
Speaker 4: three of their second round the NBA Playoffs series out

2196
01:46:59,320 --> 01:47:02,000
Speaker 4: of the Western co First Lebron James did have twenty

2197
01:47:02,040 --> 01:47:04,960
Speaker 4: one points, eight rebounds, eight assists, so he had a

2198
01:47:05,120 --> 01:47:08,120
Speaker 4: decent stat line, but he also celebrated yesterday his son,

2199
01:47:08,280 --> 01:47:12,240
Speaker 4: Bronni James, committing to USC and playing his college basketball.

2200
01:47:12,240 --> 01:47:15,040
Speaker 4: They're under head coach Eddie Enfield. LA is now ahead

2201
01:47:15,200 --> 01:47:18,160
Speaker 4: in this series two games to one. Which is the

2202
01:47:18,240 --> 01:47:20,439
Speaker 4: same lead that the Heat have in the second round

2203
01:47:20,439 --> 01:47:23,240
Speaker 4: of the Eastern Conference matchup against the Knicks. After a

2204
01:47:23,280 --> 01:47:26,599
Speaker 4: one h five to eighty six victory for Miami back

2205
01:47:26,680 --> 01:47:28,600
Speaker 4: by the twenty eight points from Jimmy Butler, who was

2206
01:47:28,640 --> 01:47:31,519
Speaker 4: done of eleven from the free throw line, Miami has

2207
01:47:31,680 --> 01:47:33,840
Speaker 4: taken two of the first three games of that series.

2208
01:47:34,320 --> 01:47:36,799
Speaker 4: And as far as the NHL, we had one playoff

2209
01:47:36,840 --> 01:47:40,160
Speaker 4: game last night and it was the Oilers dismantling the

2210
01:47:40,200 --> 01:47:42,280
Speaker 4: Golden Knights five to one in a game two four

2211
01:47:42,400 --> 01:47:46,400
Speaker 4: goals scored by the Edmonton Oilers in that first period

2212
01:47:46,800 --> 01:47:49,920
Speaker 4: de equal things at one game a piece. As far

2213
01:47:49,960 --> 01:47:55,200
Speaker 4: as the Major League Baseball workaround is concerned, the Dodgers

2214
01:47:55,280 --> 01:47:58,280
Speaker 4: are winners against the Padres last night. Chris Taylor had

2215
01:47:58,320 --> 01:48:00,240
Speaker 4: the two run blast that was the difference, and that

2216
01:48:00,439 --> 01:48:03,439
Speaker 4: one Diamondbacks winning to walk off eight to seven against

2217
01:48:03,479 --> 01:48:06,680
Speaker 4: the Nationals. Phillies loses sixth straight as they go down

2218
01:48:06,720 --> 01:48:08,960
Speaker 4: to the Red Sox seven to four despite a home

2219
01:48:09,000 --> 01:48:11,800
Speaker 4: run from Bryce Harper as he works his way back

2220
01:48:11,840 --> 01:48:14,920
Speaker 4: into the fold after the injury, Braves hang on against

2221
01:48:14,960 --> 01:48:17,599
Speaker 4: the Orioles five to four. Kevin Plar hit that pinch

2222
01:48:17,640 --> 01:48:20,040
Speaker 4: hit home run in the eighth inning to turn things

2223
01:48:20,120 --> 01:48:24,439
Speaker 4: around four Atlanta. They are now twelve games over five hundred.

2224
01:48:24,840 --> 01:48:26,960
Speaker 4: The Red Sox come away with a win against the

2225
01:48:27,000 --> 01:48:29,920
Speaker 4: White Sox five to three. Pirates lose a sixth straight

2226
01:48:30,280 --> 01:48:34,160
Speaker 4: as the Blue Jays torture them eight to two. And lastly,

2227
01:48:34,280 --> 01:48:36,720
Speaker 4: the Yankees find a eight to win, which has been

2228
01:48:36,760 --> 01:48:39,040
Speaker 4: hard to do in Tampa considering how all the Ras

2229
01:48:39,080 --> 01:48:43,280
Speaker 4: are playing. Three to two the final score there slot

2230
01:48:43,360 --> 01:48:45,880
Speaker 4: me around a little bit with that. Let's get it

2231
01:48:46,000 --> 01:48:48,840
Speaker 4: back to Jeff Schwartz and Andy Furman.

2232
01:48:49,040 --> 01:48:51,880
Speaker 1: Well, this guy's always on top. There we go. Thank you,

2233
01:48:52,280 --> 01:48:54,400
Speaker 1: all right, thank you, Brian. Hey, they should have moved

2234
01:48:54,439 --> 01:48:56,320
Speaker 1: up just a little bit more. That's right around the corner.

2235
01:48:56,400 --> 01:48:58,600
Speaker 1: He is Jeff Schwartz, I'm Andy Furman, and we are

2236
01:48:58,640 --> 01:49:01,680
Speaker 1: live from the ti rack dot com studios, and we

2237
01:49:01,800 --> 01:49:03,559
Speaker 1: talk about the blame game. We'll have that in about

2238
01:49:03,600 --> 01:49:05,400
Speaker 1: seventy eight minutes from now. No, don't talk about the

2239
01:49:05,439 --> 01:49:08,080
Speaker 1: New York Football Giants. Okay, Now, if they win, they

2240
01:49:08,080 --> 01:49:09,640
Speaker 1: didn't have much of a quarterback. I don't think much

2241
01:49:09,640 --> 01:49:11,800
Speaker 1: of Daniel Jones. I'm surprised they signed them to the

2242
01:49:11,840 --> 01:49:14,160
Speaker 1: long term deal. But they did, but the Giants were

2243
01:49:14,200 --> 01:49:16,680
Speaker 1: a playoff team last year. They beat Minnesota in Round one.

2244
01:49:17,120 --> 01:49:19,000
Speaker 1: The Giants traded up in the first round. They had

2245
01:49:19,040 --> 01:49:21,599
Speaker 1: the twenty fifth pit. They slit up a spot. They

2246
01:49:21,680 --> 01:49:25,040
Speaker 1: took quarterback The Banks from Maryland. But the Giants didn't

2247
01:49:25,080 --> 01:49:28,000
Speaker 1: invest in quarterback Daniel Jones. And I think he needs

2248
01:49:28,120 --> 01:49:30,760
Speaker 1: more and better weapons, That's what I think. Well, they

2249
01:49:30,840 --> 01:49:33,200
Speaker 1: did get tight end Darren Waller, so that's.

2250
01:49:33,080 --> 01:49:37,080
Speaker 2: A protect En director Jaylen Hyatt drafted a center for

2251
01:49:37,200 --> 01:49:44,200
Speaker 2: him this year. Look, you're the Giants were in a

2252
01:49:44,280 --> 01:49:48,000
Speaker 2: tough spot because what do they do right? Like, you

2253
01:49:48,120 --> 01:49:51,000
Speaker 2: can't let Jones walk because who what are the options?

2254
01:49:51,640 --> 01:49:53,400
Speaker 2: You don't have options if you let Jones walk, what

2255
01:49:53,439 --> 01:49:57,479
Speaker 2: are your options? I think you hope, you hope that

2256
01:49:59,000 --> 01:50:02,599
Speaker 2: you know. Last year Zones settled down with the turnovers right,

2257
01:50:02,680 --> 01:50:05,840
Speaker 2: he played more consistent football and he turned the ball

2258
01:50:05,880 --> 01:50:10,639
Speaker 2: over less. I think you hope with with better weapons

2259
01:50:10,680 --> 01:50:14,439
Speaker 2: around him second year in the offense that we see

2260
01:50:14,520 --> 01:50:16,160
Speaker 2: this big jump from Daniel Jones.

2261
01:50:16,920 --> 01:50:17,559
Speaker 3: Is it likely?

2262
01:50:18,680 --> 01:50:18,800
Speaker 5: Uh?

2263
01:50:19,600 --> 01:50:23,479
Speaker 2: Possibly, but probably not. I think he Daniel Jones is

2264
01:50:23,560 --> 01:50:27,400
Speaker 2: what he is. And I think you just you hope

2265
01:50:27,439 --> 01:50:29,920
Speaker 2: that you your playoff team last year with a roster

2266
01:50:30,040 --> 01:50:33,240
Speaker 2: that wasn't terribly good. You upgrade the roster, and now

2267
01:50:33,280 --> 01:50:35,479
Speaker 2: you have a chance to do some special things, you hope.

2268
01:50:36,000 --> 01:50:39,360
Speaker 2: I don't see what Jones could be wrong, obviously, but

2269
01:50:39,640 --> 01:50:43,080
Speaker 2: we don't see a lot of quarterbacks in year four, five, six,

2270
01:50:43,160 --> 01:50:45,519
Speaker 2: and seven all of a sudden become elite.

2271
01:50:46,600 --> 01:50:48,559
Speaker 1: I'm going to talk about elite quarterbacks for a second,

2272
01:50:48,640 --> 01:50:50,800
Speaker 1: if I may. We were talking about trying to think

2273
01:50:50,840 --> 01:50:53,960
Speaker 1: of teams that maybe have won with on an elite quarterback.

2274
01:50:54,080 --> 01:50:57,360
Speaker 1: Maybe I'm wrong here. I'm very fuzzy with my memory.

2275
01:50:57,360 --> 01:50:59,519
Speaker 1: I don't even know what day it is today, nineteen

2276
01:50:59,600 --> 01:51:02,280
Speaker 1: sixty nine. I believe the Minnesota Vikings won it all.

2277
01:51:02,600 --> 01:51:05,920
Speaker 1: They beat the Cleveland Browns. I think maybe I'm wrong.

2278
01:51:06,000 --> 01:51:08,000
Speaker 1: Maybe someone can help me. I think Joe Kapp was

2279
01:51:08,040 --> 01:51:10,880
Speaker 1: the quarterback of the Minnesota Vikings. Am I is that?

2280
01:51:11,479 --> 01:51:13,439
Speaker 2: Is that a ring ability? Are you asking the thirty

2281
01:51:13,479 --> 01:51:15,559
Speaker 2: six year old for help on that one? Are you? Well?

2282
01:51:15,720 --> 01:51:17,920
Speaker 1: You're the the You're the NFL buff You should know

2283
01:51:18,240 --> 01:51:18,840
Speaker 1: I am.

2284
01:51:19,520 --> 01:51:22,439
Speaker 2: I'm unaware of the Viking starting quarterback in nineteen sixty nine.

2285
01:51:24,120 --> 01:51:25,720
Speaker 1: I didn't google I'm gonna google it. I think it

2286
01:51:25,800 --> 01:51:27,679
Speaker 1: was Joe Capp, but still at all they won.

2287
01:51:28,120 --> 01:51:30,200
Speaker 2: And I don't think Jap is a cow as a

2288
01:51:30,280 --> 01:51:32,920
Speaker 2: former cow bear, I know that I believe, Yeah, but.

2289
01:51:33,120 --> 01:51:35,360
Speaker 1: I don't think Joe Capp. You you wouldn't say Joe

2290
01:51:35,439 --> 01:51:37,920
Speaker 1: Capp was an elite quarterback. But the quarterbacking back in

2291
01:51:37,960 --> 01:51:40,120
Speaker 1: sixty nine was a different animal. It was a running

2292
01:51:40,160 --> 01:51:42,599
Speaker 1: game back then. That's what the NFL was until Dan

2293
01:51:42,720 --> 01:51:43,439
Speaker 1: Marino came in.

2294
01:51:44,439 --> 01:51:47,559
Speaker 3: I can confirm he was a Viking in nineteen sixty seven.

2295
01:51:48,439 --> 01:51:48,719
Speaker 1: Seven.

2296
01:51:48,840 --> 01:51:50,840
Speaker 2: There we go, let's go look at you. Andy.

2297
01:51:51,400 --> 01:51:54,559
Speaker 1: Uh, my mind is better back then than it was yesterday.

2298
01:51:54,600 --> 01:51:55,120
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying.

2299
01:51:55,320 --> 01:51:57,719
Speaker 2: It's ingrained in your in your person.

2300
01:51:58,800 --> 01:52:01,960
Speaker 1: I think you know what the difference may be back then,

2301
01:52:02,479 --> 01:52:06,040
Speaker 1: and that sounds really stupid. You watch games for the

2302
01:52:06,200 --> 01:52:09,280
Speaker 1: pure enjoyment. There was no pressure. Now, you watch games

2303
01:52:09,320 --> 01:52:11,519
Speaker 1: because it's your job. Not that you don't enjoy it

2304
01:52:11,600 --> 01:52:13,439
Speaker 1: as much I do, but you watch it in a

2305
01:52:13,479 --> 01:52:15,439
Speaker 1: different angle. What am I going to talk about? What's

2306
01:52:15,520 --> 01:52:15,960
Speaker 1: the story?

2307
01:52:16,280 --> 01:52:16,400
Speaker 2: Right?

2308
01:52:16,640 --> 01:52:17,880
Speaker 1: It's a different animal now.

2309
01:52:18,920 --> 01:52:20,800
Speaker 2: Also, there were like eight teams back then as well.

2310
01:52:20,880 --> 01:52:22,160
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, it was.

2311
01:52:22,160 --> 01:52:23,960
Speaker 2: It's funny you mentioned because I was we had people

2312
01:52:24,000 --> 01:52:26,240
Speaker 2: over last night for a little get together that my

2313
01:52:26,320 --> 01:52:29,320
Speaker 2: wife threw for a friend, and the Laker game was

2314
01:52:29,360 --> 01:52:31,000
Speaker 2: on and we were and I was, you know, watching

2315
01:52:31,000 --> 01:52:32,960
Speaker 2: the first quarter pretty intently. But then we kind of

2316
01:52:33,320 --> 01:52:34,760
Speaker 2: it was with some people. We kind of got up

2317
01:52:34,760 --> 01:52:37,600
Speaker 2: and walked around and they're like, how do you how

2318
01:52:37,640 --> 01:52:39,360
Speaker 2: do you like talk about the game tomorrow when you're

2319
01:52:39,360 --> 01:52:40,680
Speaker 2: not like staying in front of the TV for the

2320
01:52:40,880 --> 01:52:44,240
Speaker 2: entire game. I'm like, I'm watching the game, guys, I'm

2321
01:52:44,280 --> 01:52:46,880
Speaker 2: paying attention. Like even though like I'm not, like, you

Speaker 1: Yeah, and we're not here to break down the game.

2328
01:53:04,439 --> 01:53:06,479
Speaker 2: So I told said, I said, I'm not coming on

2329

Speaker 2: the radio to be like in the second quarter, you

2330
01:53:08,200 --> 01:53:10,760

2331
01:53:10,800 --> 01:53:12,720
Speaker 2: ball in the slot and they are great. M like, no,

2332

Speaker 1: the blame game is freaking next and coming right up.

Speaker 6: You ruin me. It's all your fault. No, it's your fault.

2356
01:54:24,439 --> 01:54:25,759
Speaker 4: What is all your fault.

2357
01:54:29,280 --> 01:54:33,000
Speaker 1: Maybe it's everyone's fault. Who knows, see the liar. That's

2358
01:54:33,040 --> 01:54:35,760
Speaker 1: why there's the blame game, the blame game. Let's figure

2359
01:54:35,800 --> 01:54:39,400
Speaker 1: out who to blame, all right, the big a Ethan

2360
01:54:39,760 --> 01:54:40,840
Speaker 1: handling the blame game.

2361
01:54:40,960 --> 01:54:42,520
Speaker 3: All right, A lot to blame today, guys.

2362
01:54:43,440 --> 01:54:46,600
Speaker 5: To start off, the Warriors didn't even score one hundred

2363
01:54:46,640 --> 01:54:48,040
Speaker 5: points last night, ninety seven points.

2364
01:54:48,080 --> 01:54:51,480
Speaker 3: They lost by thirty to the Lakers. Guys, who's the blame.

2365
01:54:51,600 --> 01:54:54,520
Speaker 1: Let's start Andy, I tell you why you gotta blame.

2366
01:54:54,680 --> 01:54:57,160
Speaker 1: It's not a blame, it's a column. And really, Anthony Davis,

2367
01:54:57,200 --> 01:54:59,560
Speaker 1: he was tremendous defensively, so he was the guy. But

2368
01:55:00,080 --> 01:55:02,320
Speaker 1: you shoot the way they did twenty nine percent from

2369
01:55:02,400 --> 01:55:04,920
Speaker 1: the floor, that's disgusting. I have forgot it. But one

2370
01:55:05,040 --> 01:55:08,640
Speaker 1: finger on one person's chest. I'm putting it on Draymond Green.

2371
01:55:08,880 --> 01:55:12,960
Speaker 1: Two points prothetic pathetic, Draymond pathetic.

2372
01:55:14,000 --> 01:55:17,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, he wasn't his best and they just missed about

2373
01:55:17,360 --> 01:55:21,080
Speaker 2: open shots. I think they just the blame is is

2374
01:55:21,800 --> 01:55:24,360
Speaker 2: the rim is the Staples Center, that is, they weren't

2375
01:55:24,360 --> 01:55:27,720
Speaker 2: open for the Warriors. Yeah, they dismissed bunch of open shots.

2376
01:55:27,760 --> 01:55:29,760
Speaker 2: I don't I don't know the ad was great in

2377
01:55:29,800 --> 01:55:31,560
Speaker 2: the paint. He made, he did he did, he did

2378
01:55:31,640 --> 01:55:33,800
Speaker 2: block up shots, and Lebron had some good effort plays

2379
01:55:34,320 --> 01:55:36,600
Speaker 2: coming from behind the I think the effort on the

2380
01:55:36,680 --> 01:55:41,520
Speaker 2: Lakers felt at least watching the game, it felt like

2381
01:55:41,600 --> 01:55:43,680
Speaker 2: the Lakers just had more effort than the Warriors last night.

2382
01:55:45,720 --> 01:55:48,320
Speaker 3: All right, here we go, NBA. This is an interesting

2383
01:55:48,360 --> 01:55:49,600
Speaker 3: I read this article this morning.

2384
01:55:50,840 --> 01:55:54,000
Speaker 5: The NBA takes an average of three and a half

2385
01:55:54,160 --> 01:55:57,600
Speaker 5: minutes to do replay reviews when they stopped the game.

2386
01:55:58,240 --> 01:55:59,800
Speaker 3: Now, I know this is a little challenging in you.

2387
01:55:59,840 --> 01:56:03,520
Speaker 3: But who's to blame for this? The league, the refs.

2388
01:56:05,240 --> 01:56:06,840
Speaker 1: Well, you know, I think you have to blame the

2389
01:56:06,880 --> 01:56:08,720
Speaker 1: referees because they want to make sure they get it right.

2390
01:56:08,760 --> 01:56:10,560
Speaker 1: I think it's disgusting. I think it takes away from

2391
01:56:10,600 --> 01:56:12,520
Speaker 1: the flow of the game. I'd like to see the

2392
01:56:12,640 --> 01:56:15,640
Speaker 1: human element there if the referee makes a mistake. For years,

2393
01:56:15,760 --> 01:56:18,840
Speaker 1: refs have made mistakes, not intentionally, but that's part of

2394
01:56:18,880 --> 01:56:21,520
Speaker 1: the game. It's human era. And when you stop the game,

2395
01:56:21,760 --> 01:56:23,760
Speaker 1: it's like an additional timeout. If a team is on

2396
01:56:23,840 --> 01:56:26,760
Speaker 1: a run, they lose that momentum. I think it stinks.

2397
01:56:26,960 --> 01:56:28,360
Speaker 1: And to tell you what, as far as the fans

2398
01:56:28,400 --> 01:56:31,160
Speaker 1: are concerned and watching it on TV. Normally the last

2399
01:56:31,160 --> 01:56:33,880
Speaker 1: two minutes of a basketball game least twenty five minutes.

2400
01:56:36,880 --> 01:56:42,240
Speaker 2: I uh I, it's not as bad as thing as

2401
01:56:42,280 --> 01:56:47,160
Speaker 2: it used to be. I just think sometimes my point

2402
01:56:47,200 --> 01:56:50,080
Speaker 2: with the replay is, the game is not played in

2403
01:56:50,240 --> 01:56:56,000
Speaker 2: super slow motion. It's it's it's played in full speed.

2404
01:56:56,800 --> 01:56:59,000
Speaker 2: And when we have repair reviews where we're able to

2405
01:56:59,080 --> 01:57:02,320
Speaker 2: slow things down and and zoom in and analyze it

2406
01:57:02,400 --> 01:57:05,800
Speaker 2: to like degree, it's to me it's not what replay

2407
01:57:05,960 --> 01:57:09,040
Speaker 2: was was was tenni for Andy, that's our problem.

2408
01:57:10,640 --> 01:57:12,160
Speaker 1: I get it. You want to get it right. I

2409
01:57:12,560 --> 01:57:15,400
Speaker 1: understand that, But there's a possibility that officially, look when

2410
01:57:15,400 --> 01:57:17,480
Speaker 1: you were playing, did they have replayed I don't remember

2411
01:57:17,480 --> 01:57:20,839
Speaker 1: when the yeah, I mean, but still there were referees

2412
01:57:20,880 --> 01:57:23,360
Speaker 1: that god things even when it just it's just the

2413
01:57:23,400 --> 01:57:26,600
Speaker 1: way it is. I mean, I'm not into the waiting game.

2414
01:57:27,040 --> 01:57:29,200
Speaker 1: Just get it. Call it. If it's wrong, it's wrong.

2415
01:57:29,320 --> 01:57:33,120
Speaker 5: That's it, all right, Well here we go next, we're

2416
01:57:33,160 --> 01:57:36,320
Speaker 5: going to go to the hockey playoffs. Right now, the

2417
01:57:36,480 --> 01:57:40,520
Speaker 5: ratings are currently down six percent. Who's the blame for this?

2418
01:57:40,640 --> 01:57:43,440
Speaker 1: Andy? Just to support itself, I think hockey is not

2419
01:57:43,720 --> 01:57:46,920
Speaker 1: conducive for television. Is too fast. I think hockey itself

2420
01:57:47,040 --> 01:57:49,120
Speaker 1: is too fast for TV. You know, years ago, I

2421
01:57:49,160 --> 01:57:51,560
Speaker 1: think they had like a different colored punk and had

2422
01:57:51,600 --> 01:57:53,920
Speaker 1: the line. I think it was on Fox. It actually

2423
01:57:54,440 --> 01:57:56,960
Speaker 1: it's just the game is just not really meant f

2424
01:57:57,000 --> 01:58:00,839
Speaker 1: a TV. What makes football great several things, ambling aspect

2425
01:58:01,160 --> 01:58:03,160
Speaker 1: less is more because they play once a week, and

2426
01:58:03,200 --> 01:58:05,600
Speaker 1: the fact that it's on TV and it's great. Football

2427
01:58:05,680 --> 01:58:08,480
Speaker 1: is better on TV than in person. It really is

2428
01:58:08,680 --> 01:58:10,800
Speaker 1: hockey better in person than on TV.

2429
01:58:11,400 --> 01:58:15,680
Speaker 2: So right now we have Toronto in the postseason in

2430
01:58:15,800 --> 01:58:18,800
Speaker 2: Canada that they don't actually count for ratings, right the

2431
01:58:18,880 --> 01:58:23,480
Speaker 2: American teams are the Florida Panthers, the Seattle Kracking, the

2432
01:58:23,600 --> 01:58:28,640
Speaker 2: Dallas Stars, the Devils and Hurricanes. Do we have the

2433
01:58:28,720 --> 01:58:31,320
Speaker 2: City and the Golden Knights in Vegas? The Oilers are

2434
01:58:31,360 --> 01:58:38,240
Speaker 2: in Canada as well, obviously with the Bruins, Penguins, Rangers, Kings,

2435
01:58:39,240 --> 01:58:43,120
Speaker 2: like all the big city teams, the Blackhawks. They're not

2436
01:58:43,240 --> 01:58:45,280
Speaker 2: in the playoffs right now, of course, it's the ratings

2437
01:58:45,280 --> 01:58:48,960
Speaker 2: are down. I the Kracking are two years old, right

2438
01:58:49,120 --> 01:58:52,520
Speaker 2: like like the Knights are four years old. Like there

2439
01:58:53,240 --> 01:58:56,520
Speaker 2: they don't have the fan base and that these other

2440
01:58:57,080 --> 01:59:00,680
Speaker 2: major programs have, and that's why it's down. You know,

2441
01:59:01,320 --> 01:59:04,040
Speaker 2: where's New York City in this? Where's Chicago? Where's Los Angeles?

2442
01:59:04,200 --> 01:59:06,280
Speaker 1: The storyline was killed when the Bruins lost.

2443
01:59:06,640 --> 01:59:09,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, where the brute? Where's Pittsburgh? That that's why it's

2444
01:59:09,560 --> 01:59:12,120
Speaker 2: down when you don't have your your your your original

2445
01:59:12,200 --> 01:59:13,280
Speaker 2: six teams playing right?

2446
01:59:14,200 --> 01:59:14,440
Speaker 1: Yeah?

2447
01:59:15,680 --> 01:59:18,600
Speaker 5: All right, last one before we head out. I have

2448
01:59:19,800 --> 01:59:22,680
Speaker 5: this is pretty interesting, not really, but.

2449
01:59:24,840 --> 01:59:29,040
Speaker 3: The n L, the d L d H.

2450
01:59:30,680 --> 01:59:34,280
Speaker 5: Was not around for fifty years and now it's around.

2451
01:59:34,520 --> 01:59:36,920
Speaker 5: So who was to blame for this fifty year holdout?

2452
01:59:37,760 --> 01:59:41,240
Speaker 1: Andy Oh to blame? I think that the fact that

2453
01:59:41,480 --> 01:59:44,240
Speaker 1: he wanted the pitchers to hit and they wanted more offense.

2454
01:59:44,280 --> 01:59:46,720
Speaker 1: So I think that the commissioner of Major League Baseball

2455
01:59:46,720 --> 01:59:49,000
Speaker 1: at the time said, we need more offense, so we

2456
01:59:49,040 --> 01:59:51,720
Speaker 1: don't want the pictures hitting. Basically, they never take batting

2457
01:59:51,760 --> 01:59:54,160
Speaker 1: practice anyway, so it was a big deal that But

2458
01:59:54,280 --> 01:59:55,640
Speaker 1: do you know what, I think it was part of

2459
01:59:55,720 --> 01:59:58,080
Speaker 1: the game. I'm not really into the the ah. Sorry,

2460
01:59:59,240 --> 02:00:03,960
Speaker 1: no one to blame, alright, see you next week.
