WEBVTT - HOUR 1- Chris Haynes Oct 08, 2020

0:00:00.680 --> 0:00:03.480
<v Speaker 1>You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox

0:00:03.560 --> 0:00:07.280
<v Speaker 1>Sports Radio. Welcome to the program. It's our one on

0:00:07.360 --> 0:00:13.280
<v Speaker 1>this Thursday. Breaking news. Another Tennessee Titans player has tested

0:00:13.320 --> 0:00:20.240
<v Speaker 1>positive this morning. The facility remains closed. Personal activities are prohibited.

0:00:20.360 --> 0:00:23.600
<v Speaker 1>This according to Adam Schefter, I don't see how the

0:00:23.600 --> 0:00:25.880
<v Speaker 1>Titans are able to play this game this weekend against

0:00:25.920 --> 0:00:28.600
<v Speaker 1>the Buffalo Bills, much like last week when they couldn't

0:00:28.600 --> 0:00:31.920
<v Speaker 1>play against the Pittsburgh Steelers. And the NFL has a

0:00:31.960 --> 0:00:36.120
<v Speaker 1>real problem on its hands. Welcome to the program. Coming

0:00:36.200 --> 0:00:38.960
<v Speaker 1>up a little bit, we'll check in with Chris Haynes

0:00:39.000 --> 0:00:42.120
<v Speaker 1>and the Bubble. Lebron and the Lakers have an extra

0:00:42.200 --> 0:00:43.880
<v Speaker 1>day to get ready for what they hope will be

0:00:43.920 --> 0:00:47.159
<v Speaker 1>the final game of the NBA season. We'll have a

0:00:47.159 --> 0:00:50.400
<v Speaker 1>poll question. We'll check in with John Smoltz. Smoltzy did

0:00:50.440 --> 0:00:53.519
<v Speaker 1>the Podres and the Dodgers game last night. It was

0:00:53.560 --> 0:00:56.720
<v Speaker 1>an awesome ending. There was some great theatrics there, so

0:00:56.760 --> 0:00:58.840
<v Speaker 1>we'll talk to him about that. The Dodgers win, the

0:00:58.960 --> 0:01:02.400
<v Speaker 1>Rays win, the is win, the Braves quietly with great

0:01:02.440 --> 0:01:06.520
<v Speaker 1>pitching they win again. You got football tonight, Buccaneers at

0:01:06.560 --> 0:01:12.160
<v Speaker 1>the Bears, and the NFL is investigating the Tennessee Titans.

0:01:12.200 --> 0:01:15.360
<v Speaker 1>Every offseason, a group of NFL employees gathers in a

0:01:15.400 --> 0:01:17.640
<v Speaker 1>small room. They figure out a way to somehow put

0:01:17.680 --> 0:01:21.920
<v Speaker 1>together a sixteen game schedule, and under normal circumstances, it's

0:01:21.959 --> 0:01:24.120
<v Speaker 1>not an easy job. Now the NFL has to figure

0:01:24.120 --> 0:01:27.800
<v Speaker 1>out what to do when games are canceled postponed because

0:01:27.840 --> 0:01:31.920
<v Speaker 1>of COVID test. Keeping players healthy is priority number one

0:01:31.920 --> 0:01:34.959
<v Speaker 1>in this situation, and after that, the league could face

0:01:35.000 --> 0:01:39.840
<v Speaker 1>a logistical nightmare the schedule. Under normal circumstances, like that

0:01:40.040 --> 0:01:42.840
<v Speaker 1>Jenga puzzle, you pull out one game and you might

0:01:42.880 --> 0:01:45.119
<v Speaker 1>be okay. A few more games get delayed and they

0:01:45.160 --> 0:01:48.440
<v Speaker 1>face a very difficult decision. So can you add a

0:01:48.440 --> 0:01:52.680
<v Speaker 1>week eighteen? Do teams have to forfeit games? Are standings

0:01:52.840 --> 0:01:56.320
<v Speaker 1>going to be decided by winning percentage? It's going to

0:01:56.440 --> 0:02:00.320
<v Speaker 1>be impossible to accommodate everyone. And the other pro leagues

0:02:00.560 --> 0:02:03.040
<v Speaker 1>did the best they could and had success. The NBA

0:02:03.080 --> 0:02:05.960
<v Speaker 1>should be applauded that they pulled this off, and the

0:02:06.080 --> 0:02:10.320
<v Speaker 1>NHL they pulled it off. The NFL could soon find

0:02:10.360 --> 0:02:13.040
<v Speaker 1>themselves in the same boat as they try to complete

0:02:13.040 --> 0:02:16.679
<v Speaker 1>a season in the most fair way possible. But you

0:02:16.800 --> 0:02:19.160
<v Speaker 1>go back to the NBA and the NHL, they bubble

0:02:19.240 --> 0:02:23.520
<v Speaker 1>ized their teams and the NFL. You know, that's the

0:02:23.560 --> 0:02:26.760
<v Speaker 1>big question that you're always going to have, that where

0:02:26.800 --> 0:02:30.560
<v Speaker 1>are your players right now? And you know there's a

0:02:30.600 --> 0:02:33.239
<v Speaker 1>report the Titans players got together and held sort of

0:02:33.280 --> 0:02:36.080
<v Speaker 1>an informal practice. But what are they supposed to do?

0:02:36.160 --> 0:02:39.240
<v Speaker 1>You can't go to the facility. I don't know if

0:02:39.240 --> 0:02:41.480
<v Speaker 1>the NFL had an edict that said you guys cannot

0:02:41.520 --> 0:02:45.760
<v Speaker 1>gather whatsoever. But these players, they have to be ready

0:02:45.800 --> 0:02:49.079
<v Speaker 1>to play against the Buffalo Bills this weekend. Unless the

0:02:49.200 --> 0:02:52.280
<v Speaker 1>NFL just comes out and says, which I think they will,

0:02:52.840 --> 0:02:55.240
<v Speaker 1>this game is not going to happen this week. But

0:02:55.320 --> 0:02:58.120
<v Speaker 1>these players got together. I don't know if it's in

0:02:58.240 --> 0:03:03.000
<v Speaker 1>violation of some mandate that the NFL had, But there's

0:03:03.040 --> 0:03:05.360
<v Speaker 1>a real issue here because now if the Titans have

0:03:05.440 --> 0:03:08.320
<v Speaker 1>another game, you know, you're only out one bye week,

0:03:09.000 --> 0:03:11.520
<v Speaker 1>and if you're going to add a week eighteen, we

0:03:11.600 --> 0:03:14.760
<v Speaker 1>can't just accommodate the Tennessee Titans if they have games

0:03:14.760 --> 0:03:18.639
<v Speaker 1>that they are postponing, and do you have a forfeit

0:03:18.800 --> 0:03:22.120
<v Speaker 1>in here? And you know, how do you sort through

0:03:22.200 --> 0:03:27.280
<v Speaker 1>that logistical nightmare of going Is it their fault? And

0:03:27.440 --> 0:03:29.360
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if this is the worst part of

0:03:29.360 --> 0:03:32.920
<v Speaker 1>the NFL season or is this just the start of

0:03:32.960 --> 0:03:35.440
<v Speaker 1>this Because we had this in baseball, we had this

0:03:35.520 --> 0:03:38.120
<v Speaker 1>with the Marlins, we had this with the Cardinals, and

0:03:38.120 --> 0:03:41.360
<v Speaker 1>then everybody wised up. This could be the worst that

0:03:41.400 --> 0:03:43.800
<v Speaker 1>we're going to have, or it could be the start

0:03:44.120 --> 0:03:47.120
<v Speaker 1>of what is going to be a very very bumpy ride.

0:05:32.960 --> 0:05:34.760
<v Speaker 1>like the Fritzie. When Dan Patrick and you guys have

0:05:37.839 --> 0:05:39.560
<v Speaker 1>and now they like him even that much more when

0:05:39.560 --> 0:05:41.200
<v Speaker 1>five goes through the Hall of Fame and he sits

0:05:41.240 --> 0:05:43.239
<v Speaker 1>around with all the Hall of famers and then there's

0:05:43.400 --> 0:05:47.479
<v Speaker 1>like a law in the conversation and Farve we'll go, Hey,

0:05:47.880 --> 0:05:50.920

<v Speaker 1>same year birthday? Is todd fritz I think it's funny.

0:05:53.080 --> 0:05:55.119
<v Speaker 1>But when trivial pursuit comes out and all of a sudden,

0:05:55.120 --> 0:05:56.880
<v Speaker 1>that's the question, and everyone is stumped and you're able

0:05:56.920 --> 0:05:58.960
<v Speaker 1>to play that little triangle that you could put in

0:05:58.960 --> 0:06:01.760
<v Speaker 1>the trivial pursuit game. Is that an old reference? No

0:06:01.760 --> 0:06:04.040
<v Speaker 1>one plays trivial pursuit. I don't know where you're going today,

0:06:04.279 --> 0:06:06.080
<v Speaker 1>Like you're out of the gate on fire. A good

0:06:06.120 --> 0:06:09.440
<v Speaker 1>trivial pursuit. Now I now I regret Seaton. Let's call

0:06:09.480 --> 0:06:12.480
<v Speaker 1>off the sale. Okay, yeah, that's a bad idea. Don't

0:06:12.560 --> 0:06:14.479
<v Speaker 1>hurt the you know what, we're going to charge you double.

0:06:15.040 --> 0:06:18.640
<v Speaker 1>Why would you hurt our fans? Because yes, yes, we

0:06:18.839 --> 0:06:21.040
<v Speaker 1>love him. You know, all those Hall of Fame quarterbacks,

0:06:21.040 --> 0:06:23.800
<v Speaker 1>Fritzie's been harassing all of them for decades, probably Alway

0:06:23.839 --> 0:06:26.120
<v Speaker 1>and Marino, like oh, Fritzie, that guy calls me four

0:06:26.160 --> 0:06:29.320
<v Speaker 1>times a week. They would actually know Fritzie every single

0:06:29.320 --> 0:06:33.159
<v Speaker 1>water A couple of them would, Montana would, Marino would

0:06:34.120 --> 0:06:36.480
<v Speaker 1>far might know who you are. I don't like to

0:06:36.480 --> 0:06:38.760
<v Speaker 1>take you answer. Who else have you annoyed over the

0:06:38.800 --> 0:06:43.200
<v Speaker 1>years at some point? Pretty much this program has brought

0:06:43.200 --> 0:06:46.320
<v Speaker 1>to you by the Home Depot. Pros have to do

0:06:46.440 --> 0:06:48.960
<v Speaker 1>whatever it takes to get it done. Home Depot makes

0:06:49.000 --> 0:06:51.760
<v Speaker 1>it easier. They got delivery options to get you what

0:06:51.839 --> 0:06:54.320
<v Speaker 1>you need exactly where you need it, so you can

0:06:54.400 --> 0:06:57.479
<v Speaker 1>keep doing whatever it is you get the job done

0:06:57.720 --> 0:06:59.720
<v Speaker 1>the home Depot. How doers get more done? Yes? We

0:06:59.839 --> 0:07:03.280
<v Speaker 1>love Okay. So there's a lot going on the sports. Yeah, uh,

0:07:03.760 --> 0:07:07.080
<v Speaker 1>MLB playoffs, NFL, COVID, NBA finals. So I have a

0:07:07.120 --> 0:07:09.880
<v Speaker 1>series of nick Foles. Who would you rather be Poles?

0:07:09.880 --> 0:07:12.200
<v Speaker 1>If you want to jump into those now? Or we

0:07:12.200 --> 0:07:15.280
<v Speaker 1>can wait, wait, wait, wait a nick Foles question? Nick

0:07:15.320 --> 0:07:18.240
<v Speaker 1>Foles against Tom Brady tonight, So our old question, would

0:07:18.240 --> 0:07:20.920
<v Speaker 1>you rather be Nick Foles with that ring or Matthew

0:07:21.120 --> 0:07:23.640
<v Speaker 1>Stafford number one overall? Pick and never get a ring?

0:07:23.840 --> 0:07:26.280
<v Speaker 1>Whose career do you want? Dan Badger? It's too early

0:07:26.320 --> 0:07:29.320
<v Speaker 1>for that todnight, it's gonna be a referendum on Nick Foles.

0:07:29.560 --> 0:07:32.080
<v Speaker 1>Tom Brady. Well, it always is. I mean, that's what

0:07:32.160 --> 0:07:34.800
<v Speaker 1>it comes down to. This is, you know, Tom's chance

0:07:35.000 --> 0:07:39.760
<v Speaker 1>at you know, retribution. Bears question, what would you like

0:07:39.800 --> 0:07:43.040
<v Speaker 1>the season to go nine and seven with like Nick Foles?

0:07:43.160 --> 0:07:44.680
<v Speaker 1>Or would you like to sort of go five and

0:07:44.720 --> 0:07:47.720
<v Speaker 1>eleven and reset after this? Are we really asking Chicago

0:07:47.800 --> 0:07:51.440
<v Speaker 1>Bears pole questions today? I mean even Paulie doesn't care

0:07:51.440 --> 0:07:54.520
<v Speaker 1>about that. That's true. Wait till the night it's gonna be.

0:07:54.800 --> 0:07:57.040
<v Speaker 1>It doesn't matter what's happening, it's gonna be a Brady

0:07:57.080 --> 0:08:01.640
<v Speaker 1>Foles referendum. Buccaneers looked to start four and one in

0:08:01.680 --> 0:08:04.200
<v Speaker 1>a season for the first time since two thousand and five.

0:08:04.840 --> 0:08:07.720
<v Speaker 1>Only the Cleveland Browns and the Miami Dolphins have gone

0:08:07.800 --> 0:08:13.120
<v Speaker 1>longer without starting the season four and one. Stat of

0:08:13.160 --> 0:08:16.880

0:08:32.320 --> 0:08:35.679
<v Speaker 1>Fritzie yesterday goes, hey, uh, if the Astros hold on,

0:08:35.720 --> 0:08:37.960
<v Speaker 1>we should get Dusty Baker on the show put the

0:08:38.040 --> 0:08:41.360
<v Speaker 1>pox on them pretty bad. Yeah, good job, Todd. It

0:08:41.480 --> 0:08:43.200
<v Speaker 1>must have been like a minute and a half way

0:08:43.200 --> 0:08:48.520
<v Speaker 1>an they refused to go down. They will not be swept, buddies.

0:08:49.880 --> 0:08:51.959
<v Speaker 1>You didn't You didn't offer up any of the oakland

0:08:51.960 --> 0:08:54.480
<v Speaker 1>A's right. Not only that, but I also was about

0:08:54.480 --> 0:08:56.439
<v Speaker 1>to send a note to Astro's media relations, thinking that

0:08:56.559 --> 0:08:58.360
<v Speaker 1>they had pretty much one with, you know, in the

0:08:58.400 --> 0:09:00.000
<v Speaker 1>sixth inning, and that would have been really bad. Yeah,

0:09:00.280 --> 0:09:02.400
<v Speaker 1>it was within minutes after sending that that's when all

0:09:02.400 --> 0:09:05.199
<v Speaker 1>of a sudden, Days went on a barage. And then

0:09:05.200 --> 0:09:08.959
<v Speaker 1>I watched the Dodgers last night and the Padres. You know,

0:09:09.360 --> 0:09:12.040
<v Speaker 1>I'm fascinated with it because this is a Padre team

0:09:12.080 --> 0:09:14.160
<v Speaker 1>that maybe thought that they were a year away from

0:09:14.160 --> 0:09:18.080
<v Speaker 1>being here. But they've got some stars. There's a little

0:09:18.120 --> 0:09:21.640
<v Speaker 1>bit of swagger there. Kershaw was on the mound, Bellinger

0:09:21.720 --> 0:09:25.960
<v Speaker 1>had an unbelievable catch, robbing Tatis of a home run.

0:09:26.400 --> 0:09:30.240
<v Speaker 1>Machado's having words with the Dodgers. Can't wait for the

0:09:30.240 --> 0:09:33.000
<v Speaker 1>next game, but Smoltzy called that game, so he'll join

0:09:33.080 --> 0:09:35.840
<v Speaker 1>us coming up a little bit later on the Rays

0:09:35.920 --> 0:09:38.800
<v Speaker 1>and the Yankees that I guess we have a new star.

0:09:40.679 --> 0:09:46.760
<v Speaker 1>His name is Randy Arose Arena. Nailed it, Randy Arose Arena.

0:09:47.040 --> 0:09:50.559
<v Speaker 1>It's actually fun saying that Randy Arose Arena. He's now

0:09:50.640 --> 0:09:54.960
<v Speaker 1>batting six hundred for the postseason, eight hits in twelve

0:09:55.000 --> 0:09:57.880
<v Speaker 1>at bats against the Yankees. He singled in his first

0:09:57.920 --> 0:10:00.719
<v Speaker 1>two at bats Wednesday, and then he he hit a

0:10:00.760 --> 0:10:03.320
<v Speaker 1>couple of home runs after that. He's being called the

0:10:03.440 --> 0:10:09.000
<v Speaker 1>Cuban Mookie Bets. And this is a guy who came

0:10:09.040 --> 0:10:14.440
<v Speaker 1>over from the Cardinals in January to the Rays. Now

0:10:14.480 --> 0:10:18.080
<v Speaker 1>you it feels like every postseason you have some guy

0:10:18.160 --> 0:10:21.080
<v Speaker 1>that emerges and you go, wow, where did he come from?

0:10:21.720 --> 0:10:24.760
<v Speaker 1>He had a decent regular season, but one of the

0:10:24.880 --> 0:10:31.600
<v Speaker 1>Tampa Rays said that he's the best player on the planet. Okay,

0:10:32.720 --> 0:10:36.319
<v Speaker 1>in the last couple of days, he is Randy Rose Arena.

0:10:36.559 --> 0:10:39.680
<v Speaker 1>But keep an eye on him. The Rays have a

0:10:39.760 --> 0:10:44.040
<v Speaker 1>record breaking guy. Yes time a Rays Arena t shirts

0:10:45.040 --> 0:10:46.880
<v Speaker 1>or has that already been used many many times? I'll

0:10:46.920 --> 0:10:49.520
<v Speaker 1>be shocked if the local media haven't done anything with that. Well,

0:10:49.520 --> 0:10:52.480
<v Speaker 1>he just started doing something. Yeah, but we gotta get

0:10:52.480 --> 0:10:54.000
<v Speaker 1>on We gotta get on that early. If he goes

0:10:54.000 --> 0:10:57.280
<v Speaker 1>over four tomorrow night, then people who are going to

0:10:57.360 --> 0:10:59.679
<v Speaker 1>sign up for the same day, same month, same year,

0:11:00.080 --> 0:11:05.640
<v Speaker 1>all aren't gonna take the Randy Rose Arena razna. It's

0:11:05.640 --> 0:11:07.120
<v Speaker 1>something to consider. I'm not saying it's got to go

0:11:07.120 --> 0:11:10.520
<v Speaker 1>into print right now, you know, contact the facility or

0:11:10.720 --> 0:11:12.240
<v Speaker 1>is this a sample of what you're gonna be like

0:11:12.320 --> 0:11:14.440
<v Speaker 1>for the next two hours and forty five wound up?

0:11:14.440 --> 0:11:15.679
<v Speaker 1>I don't know what it is. I didn't have any

0:11:15.720 --> 0:11:18.120
<v Speaker 1>Mountain drew or caffeine or anything. I'm just feeling good. Yeah,

0:11:18.120 --> 0:11:20.520
<v Speaker 1>and the guest list is okay, okay, but it's not

0:11:20.600 --> 0:11:22.800
<v Speaker 1>an award winning enoughhing against our guests. But it's nice

0:11:22.840 --> 0:11:25.080
<v Speaker 1>to have a guest each owl. I feel good about that. Yeah,

0:11:25.400 --> 0:11:27.400
<v Speaker 1>am I rambling a little? A little high? Yeah? What

0:11:27.480 --> 0:11:29.880
<v Speaker 1>is this? Settle down? Yeah? The Astros lost, so I

0:11:29.920 --> 0:11:31.440
<v Speaker 1>don't know what. I'm in a good mood of mclen

0:11:31.640 --> 0:11:34.880
<v Speaker 1>What other poll questions? What other non Chicago Bears Poles

0:11:35.000 --> 0:11:38.040
<v Speaker 1>poll questions? I have a baseball style question from the

0:11:38.040 --> 0:11:40.800
<v Speaker 1>pre show debate. Would you rather watch baseball like the

0:11:40.880 --> 0:11:42.720
<v Speaker 1>Yankees play it and root for a team that just

0:11:42.840 --> 0:11:46.040
<v Speaker 1>hits home runs? Or would you rather have a team

0:11:46.040 --> 0:11:47.320
<v Speaker 1>that you know it's gonna win because I have a

0:11:47.400 --> 0:11:50.240
<v Speaker 1>very effective middle bullpen, which is how you win in

0:11:50.240 --> 0:11:54.160
<v Speaker 1>today's MLB. Yeah, that's a shot, and all you guys

0:11:54.120 --> 0:11:57.760
<v Speaker 1>are rooting for the raise. I love watching these Yankees team.

0:11:57.760 --> 0:12:02.440
<v Speaker 1>It's awesome. The Rays hit home runs last night. Yeah,

0:12:02.440 --> 0:12:04.599
<v Speaker 1>but they don't have Stanton and Judge do nothing but

0:12:04.720 --> 0:12:07.959
<v Speaker 1>strikeout or hit home right now, I mean this whole

0:12:08.000 --> 0:12:13.960
<v Speaker 1>Oakland Astro series, there's been eighteen home runs in three games.

0:12:16.520 --> 0:12:19.559
<v Speaker 1>Just to give you an idea, I mean, this is crazy.

0:12:19.920 --> 0:12:23.440
<v Speaker 1>There weren't eighteen home runs hit in any full postseason

0:12:23.559 --> 0:12:28.880
<v Speaker 1>series prior to nineteen ninety five. Like, no matter if

0:12:28.880 --> 0:12:31.079
<v Speaker 1>it went seven games, you don't hit eighteen home runs.

0:12:32.480 --> 0:12:38.040
<v Speaker 1>They've hit eighteen home runs in three games. Crazy, but

0:12:38.160 --> 0:12:41.000
<v Speaker 1>that's the new baseball. Yeah, I'm a club. I saw

0:12:41.040 --> 0:12:43.480
<v Speaker 1>this feature that all the cardboard fans are getting beat

0:12:43.559 --> 0:12:47.120
<v Speaker 1>up in the album. You have cardboard fans that want

0:12:47.120 --> 0:12:49.760
<v Speaker 1>to be moved to other seats. So do you think

0:12:49.840 --> 0:12:52.080
<v Speaker 1>this is affecting ratings one way or the other. Like,

0:12:53.200 --> 0:12:57.800
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, I just know from my I watch anyway,

0:12:57.840 --> 0:13:01.360
<v Speaker 1>But I think this is you know, it's ratorial, it's

0:13:01.440 --> 0:13:04.640
<v Speaker 1>regional that you're gonna watch your team, But I don't

0:13:04.640 --> 0:13:06.680
<v Speaker 1>know if a Dodger fan is going to go, hey,

0:13:06.800 --> 0:13:10.840
<v Speaker 1>Dodgers aren't on. I'm gonna watch Tampa against the Yankees

0:13:12.520 --> 0:13:14.680
<v Speaker 1>unless you're gonna go, you know what, we could be

0:13:14.720 --> 0:13:17.120
<v Speaker 1>facing them in the World Series one of those teams.

0:13:17.120 --> 0:13:20.199
<v Speaker 1>I might watch that. But you know, baseball is different.

0:13:20.280 --> 0:13:25.480
<v Speaker 1>It's regional. NFL is national. The NBA is strong regionally,

0:13:25.480 --> 0:13:28.840
<v Speaker 1>but also there you know there's a national spillover as well.

0:13:29.760 --> 0:13:32.800
<v Speaker 1>You know, people keep bringing up this. Nobody's watching the NBA.

0:13:32.880 --> 0:13:35.920
<v Speaker 1>They're gonna play on Friday night, and you know, hey,

0:13:35.960 --> 0:13:39.600
<v Speaker 1>this is this title doesn't mean the same because Lebron

0:13:39.640 --> 0:13:41.679
<v Speaker 1>would do it in the bubble, and I haven't heard

0:13:41.720 --> 0:13:44.480
<v Speaker 1>anybody say, well, if he didn't or doesn't win the title,

0:13:44.520 --> 0:13:47.080
<v Speaker 1>then it doesn't mean as much. But if he does

0:13:47.120 --> 0:13:49.440
<v Speaker 1>win it, then we're going to show water it down.

0:13:49.480 --> 0:13:52.000
<v Speaker 1>So he can't have it both ways there. Lebron, by

0:13:52.040 --> 0:13:54.040
<v Speaker 1>the way, tweeted at six thirty this morning that he

0:13:54.160 --> 0:13:57.680
<v Speaker 1>was up. Just wanted to let his followers know that

0:13:57.720 --> 0:14:00.960
<v Speaker 1>he's up and he's gonna get sleep when the season ends. There.

0:14:02.320 --> 0:14:05.959
<v Speaker 1>I don't does he think the game's tonight because somebody

0:14:06.000 --> 0:14:08.360
<v Speaker 1>better tell him, like you can go back to bed.

0:14:09.480 --> 0:14:11.920
<v Speaker 1>But he's been in the bubble. I think he's been

0:14:11.920 --> 0:14:16.520
<v Speaker 1>in the bubble ninety one days. You talk about inspiration,

0:14:17.679 --> 0:14:19.320
<v Speaker 1>you know, it's not hey, I'm gonna win another my

0:14:19.360 --> 0:14:21.760
<v Speaker 1>fourth title or I could get you know, a fourth

0:14:22.720 --> 0:14:29.080
<v Speaker 1>MVP Finals MVP. It's I've been in here ninety one days, yes,

0:14:29.160 --> 0:14:31.200
<v Speaker 1>Pa well, which was worse. He was also at home

0:14:31.240 --> 0:14:34.440
<v Speaker 1>for March, April, May and June, not able to go anywhere,

0:14:34.520 --> 0:14:38.480
<v Speaker 1>barely able to practice. I'd rather be at home than

0:14:38.520 --> 0:14:41.000
<v Speaker 1>be in the bubble. And I think when you're went

0:14:41.000 --> 0:14:43.920
<v Speaker 1>into Lebron James kind of home. Yeah yeah, I mean

0:14:43.960 --> 0:14:46.240
<v Speaker 1>it's like it might as well be a super like

0:14:46.320 --> 0:14:48.840
<v Speaker 1>five star resort where he lives. And I don't know

0:14:48.880 --> 0:14:52.600
<v Speaker 1>if he's staying, but whatever, the nicest place is at

0:14:52.600 --> 0:14:54.520
<v Speaker 1>the bubble, he's got it right. I mean, may have

0:14:54.520 --> 0:14:56.800
<v Speaker 1>the Mickey Mouse sweet but you know, there's no way

0:14:56.800 --> 0:14:59.360
<v Speaker 1>it's as nicest. But it's current home is. But at home,

0:14:59.440 --> 0:15:01.800
<v Speaker 1>he's sitting, they're dealing with kids, dealing with family and

0:15:01.920 --> 0:15:04.880
<v Speaker 1>not playing basketball. You're not dealing with kids. You get

0:15:04.880 --> 0:15:08.320
<v Speaker 1>to enjoy kids boling. Remember that's a guy whose kids

0:15:08.320 --> 0:15:11.360
<v Speaker 1>are out of the house. That's true. You don't watch

0:15:11.360 --> 0:15:14.080
<v Speaker 1>your own kids. You don't babysit your own kids. By

0:15:14.080 --> 0:15:18.080
<v Speaker 1>the way, that's a time flies. Yeah, enjoy it. Enjoy it,

0:15:18.200 --> 0:15:21.360
<v Speaker 1>guess because it goes faster. Then you think I'm that

0:15:21.520 --> 0:15:24.520
<v Speaker 1>guy now. And in the throes of this where you

0:15:24.640 --> 0:15:28.240
<v Speaker 1>got kids with diapers off and running around, it's crazy

0:15:28.360 --> 0:15:31.160
<v Speaker 1>and you're just going, oh my god, it's like pretending

0:15:31.200 --> 0:15:32.840
<v Speaker 1>to go to the bathroom, and so you just get

0:15:32.880 --> 0:15:35.320
<v Speaker 1>five minutes of peace and quiet. Shut the door, yeah

0:15:35.360 --> 0:15:39.040
<v Speaker 1>and lock it me Well, be right out. He's like, meanwhile,

0:15:39.040 --> 0:15:48.000
<v Speaker 1>you got a three year old going, dad, god minute, Okay, yes, boy.

0:15:48.120 --> 0:15:50.240
<v Speaker 1>Sometimes I just go into the garage and move stuff

0:15:50.280 --> 0:15:52.080
<v Speaker 1>around that doesn't need to be moved. The garage is

0:15:52.120 --> 0:15:53.800
<v Speaker 1>perfectly clean, and I was like, I'm gonna clean some

0:15:53.800 --> 0:15:55.640
<v Speaker 1>stuff on the garage. Sorry, seeing a little bit and

0:15:55.680 --> 0:15:58.280
<v Speaker 1>it's cold, and you know it's not the cleanest place

0:15:58.320 --> 0:16:01.640
<v Speaker 1>in the world. Just moving stuff around. I'm busy, Yeah,

0:16:01.680 --> 0:16:09.040
<v Speaker 1>I'm busy. Matt Miller, NFL insider for Bleacher Report. With

0:16:09.080 --> 0:16:12.440
<v Speaker 1>this tweet, a lot of chatter the NFL could make

0:16:12.480 --> 0:16:17.360
<v Speaker 1>the Titans forfeit this game as a punishment for violating

0:16:17.520 --> 0:16:21.560
<v Speaker 1>COVID protocols. We'll make some phone calls here. We'll keep

0:16:21.560 --> 0:16:25.160
<v Speaker 1>an eye on this, but I think that's I knew

0:16:25.160 --> 0:16:27.600
<v Speaker 1>that they were going to look at postponing this, but

0:16:27.840 --> 0:16:30.640
<v Speaker 1>forfeit was something I brought up last week and I

0:16:30.760 --> 0:16:33.360
<v Speaker 1>was told by a source, it's hard to go. Let's

0:16:33.640 --> 0:16:38.480
<v Speaker 1>make you forfeit if it's not your fault. This week,

0:16:38.720 --> 0:16:41.840
<v Speaker 1>it feels like the Titans may have thumbed their nose

0:16:41.880 --> 0:16:45.360
<v Speaker 1>a little bit at the NFL, like, how did this happen?

0:16:45.400 --> 0:16:48.640
<v Speaker 1>How the outbreak happen? You got together and you know

0:16:49.040 --> 0:16:51.600
<v Speaker 1>it was not a sanctioned practice there you can't go

0:16:51.640 --> 0:16:54.320
<v Speaker 1>to the facility. And you got another Titan who was

0:16:54.360 --> 0:16:57.480
<v Speaker 1>tested positive this morning, So we'll keep an eye on that.

0:16:57.880 --> 0:17:00.920
<v Speaker 1>Chris Haynes, who's been so great to us, the NBA

0:17:01.440 --> 0:17:05.520
<v Speaker 1>insider with Yahoo Sports and TNT, and he's joined us

0:17:05.560 --> 0:17:07.199
<v Speaker 1>quite a few times from the bub. Wanted to have

0:17:07.280 --> 0:17:09.560
<v Speaker 1>him on to say thank you, get his thoughts. As

0:18:57.920 --> 0:19:01.600
<v Speaker 1>I can't do a Chicago Bears pole question. McLevin. Yeah,

0:19:01.600 --> 0:19:03.679
<v Speaker 1>that didn't exactly catch on like I thought it was.

0:19:03.840 --> 0:19:05.560
<v Speaker 1>But wait till tomorrow. I'll bet you what we're talking

0:19:05.560 --> 0:19:07.760
<v Speaker 1>about Nick Foles in the morning. He just has a

0:19:07.800 --> 0:19:11.440
<v Speaker 1>way of coming back around all the time. Yes, I

0:19:11.520 --> 0:19:15.040
<v Speaker 1>got a baseball poll question. Okay, it's philosophical. Oh, Dodger six,

0:19:15.200 --> 0:19:18.160
<v Speaker 1>Padres five, great catch to win it basically for Cody

0:19:18.200 --> 0:19:21.840
<v Speaker 1>Bellinger at the wall, would you rather in a big

0:19:21.840 --> 0:19:24.840
<v Speaker 1>playoff game or whatever rob a home run? As a

0:19:24.880 --> 0:19:27.880
<v Speaker 1>center fielder to win the game, or hit a home

0:19:27.960 --> 0:19:29.840
<v Speaker 1>run to win the game for your team. You could

0:19:29.840 --> 0:19:33.560
<v Speaker 1>pick one. I would say rob a home run because

0:19:33.560 --> 0:19:37.159
<v Speaker 1>it doesn't happen very often, right, thank you. So that's it.

0:19:37.280 --> 0:19:40.160
<v Speaker 1>We put that poll question to bed Andy. We're going apo, Yes,

0:19:40.960 --> 0:19:44.480
<v Speaker 1>well I might. I feel like as a kid, you

0:19:44.560 --> 0:19:46.800
<v Speaker 1>played the game where you threw the ball up against

0:19:46.840 --> 0:19:48.440
<v Speaker 1>the wall, and like you would rob the home run

0:19:48.680 --> 0:19:51.800
<v Speaker 1>all the time, but you couldn't. Man hitting a home run,

0:19:51.840 --> 0:19:54.640
<v Speaker 1>It's just there's a lot of guys who've done that. Yeah,

0:19:54.680 --> 0:19:58.920
<v Speaker 1>but it's pretty awesome. Have you done it? Hit a

0:19:58.960 --> 0:20:02.640
<v Speaker 1>game winning home run? No? No, no, But that's maybe

0:20:02.680 --> 0:20:05.359
<v Speaker 1>that's why it appeals to me more. You know, like anybody,

0:20:05.359 --> 0:20:07.520
<v Speaker 1>you can make a great play with your glove, but

0:20:07.960 --> 0:20:11.159
<v Speaker 1>man hitting a home run, that's pretty awesome. Yeah, but

0:20:11.240 --> 0:20:15.000
<v Speaker 1>you can accidentally hit a home run. You can't accidentally

0:20:15.400 --> 0:20:18.040
<v Speaker 1>rob somebody of a home run. Yes, with love. I

0:20:18.080 --> 0:20:20.160
<v Speaker 1>feel like the most famous plays of all time are

0:20:20.200 --> 0:20:23.800
<v Speaker 1>Bill Mazeroski and and Bobby Thompson that's the and Joe

0:20:23.840 --> 0:20:26.879
<v Speaker 1>Carter the walkoff home runs Undefeated. I can't think of

0:20:27.040 --> 0:20:30.160
<v Speaker 1>I know, Kirby Puckett climbed the wall. But it's it's

0:20:30.240 --> 0:20:32.240
<v Speaker 1>really never happened like that. Like, would you rather get

0:20:32.280 --> 0:20:34.240
<v Speaker 1>a game hit, a game winning shot, or a game

0:20:34.280 --> 0:20:41.600
<v Speaker 1>winning block? You want the shot? Lebronze block was pretty good. Yeah, Yeah,

0:20:41.600 --> 0:20:44.280
<v Speaker 1>it's pretty good. That one is pretty good. That's pretty good.

0:20:44.359 --> 0:20:48.520
<v Speaker 1>Probably a gajillion awesome game winning shots. There's a lot

0:20:48.600 --> 0:20:52.080
<v Speaker 1>of there's a lot of game winning shots. Yeah, not

0:20:52.200 --> 0:20:56.320
<v Speaker 1>necessarily a lot of game winning saving box. Yes, time

0:20:56.560 --> 0:20:58.720
<v Speaker 1>with the home run, you get to admire it of

0:20:58.760 --> 0:21:00.760
<v Speaker 1>however long you want. You get to run around the

0:21:00.760 --> 0:21:03.919
<v Speaker 1>basis unless that catch wins the game and everyone's celebrating.

0:21:04.040 --> 0:21:05.399
<v Speaker 1>That could be the first out of an inning of

0:21:05.640 --> 0:21:10.640
<v Speaker 1>seven three did Todd No, But it's once you make

0:21:10.680 --> 0:21:12.159
<v Speaker 1>that catch, it's like, okay, you run it in. No,

0:21:12.320 --> 0:21:14.200
<v Speaker 1>we throw the ball in. There's no you don't get

0:21:14.200 --> 0:21:17.240
<v Speaker 1>the running around the basis. Everybody waits for you. Cony

0:21:17.280 --> 0:21:20.000
<v Speaker 1>Mellinger came in, they all waited for him. Yeah, but

0:21:20.040 --> 0:21:21.480
<v Speaker 1>the chicks dig the long ball. I don't know how

0:21:21.520 --> 0:21:23.600
<v Speaker 1>many are lining up to say, wow, you pulled that

0:21:23.600 --> 0:21:25.600
<v Speaker 1>ball back out from behind. Ye See, when I was

0:21:25.640 --> 0:21:27.320
<v Speaker 1>in Little league, I made a game winning catch and

0:21:27.400 --> 0:21:31.320
<v Speaker 1>it was awesome. It was never hit a home run though, yes,

0:21:31.880 --> 0:21:35.560
<v Speaker 1>the football equivalent. Would you be Roethlisberger throwing the touchdown

0:21:35.560 --> 0:21:38.880
<v Speaker 1>to win the game or Malcolm Butler stealing a touchdown

0:21:38.920 --> 0:21:41.200
<v Speaker 1>and taking a loss and making it into a win.

0:21:41.320 --> 0:21:45.520
<v Speaker 1>I would rather be Malcolm Butler. Malcolm Butler had one

0:21:45.520 --> 0:21:47.800
<v Speaker 1>of the top two or three plays in the history

0:21:47.840 --> 0:21:51.000
<v Speaker 1>of the Super Bowl, and it was a defensive play.

0:21:51.359 --> 0:21:55.639
<v Speaker 1>You could say the NFL, yes, history of ever, the

0:21:55.800 --> 0:21:59.560
<v Speaker 1>history of history. Yes, But isn't that the Pete Carroll

0:21:59.640 --> 0:22:01.960
<v Speaker 1>Russell a mistake? It's not the Malcolm Butler I had.

0:22:02.119 --> 0:22:03.639
<v Speaker 1>We always talk about it as a screwed up by

0:22:03.680 --> 0:22:06.000
<v Speaker 1>not giving it to Lynch. It's only a mistake if

0:22:06.040 --> 0:22:08.840
<v Speaker 1>you make it a mistake, and Malcolm Butler made it

0:22:08.840 --> 0:22:12.480
<v Speaker 1>a mistake, so he had to do something. If he

0:22:12.520 --> 0:22:15.040
<v Speaker 1>doesn't make the interception, then they lived to see another

0:22:15.080 --> 0:22:17.359
<v Speaker 1>play there. So you could do David Tyree versus Malcolm

0:22:17.400 --> 0:22:22.600
<v Speaker 1>Butler as a pole too or something like that. Wows

0:22:22.359 --> 0:22:25.840
<v Speaker 1>that one right there is tough because Tyree had Is

0:22:25.840 --> 0:22:28.560
<v Speaker 1>that the greatest catch in Super Bowl history? Now, it

0:22:28.600 --> 0:22:31.639
<v Speaker 1>wasn't a touchdown, it led to a touchdown. It's the

0:22:31.640 --> 0:22:35.360
<v Speaker 1>most unique catch in Super Bowl, the luckiest catch. Oh

0:22:35.440 --> 0:22:38.000
<v Speaker 1>that's right, stopist Patriot. All right, Before I get to

0:22:38.080 --> 0:22:41.480
<v Speaker 1>Chris Haines, I want to play something for you because

0:22:41.560 --> 0:22:44.240
<v Speaker 1>we have missed this during the bubble. I want to

0:22:44.240 --> 0:22:47.520
<v Speaker 1>take you back to Game seven, twenty sixteen NBA Finals

0:22:47.760 --> 0:22:50.800
<v Speaker 1>and just let you hear what it used to be

0:22:50.880 --> 0:22:54.800
<v Speaker 1>like when we had a big moment in the NBA Finals.

0:22:54.840 --> 0:22:57.600
<v Speaker 1>Each team has a foul bocam as we come up

0:22:57.640 --> 0:22:59.800
<v Speaker 1>on a minute remaining and they put it Curry of

0:22:59.840 --> 0:23:06.400
<v Speaker 1>the pick a role trying to get him on Irving Irving,

0:23:06.440 --> 0:23:09.560
<v Speaker 1>and Curry one on one, Irving pluts it up. Match God,

0:23:09.760 --> 0:23:15.400
<v Speaker 1>Kyrie Irving from downtown of the Cavaliers by three. Now

0:23:15.440 --> 0:23:19.080
<v Speaker 1>that that is something that we miss in the bubble.

0:23:19.560 --> 0:23:23.440
<v Speaker 1>They've done a great job, but you can't capture that.

0:23:23.440 --> 0:23:25.280
<v Speaker 1>That is real. That was in the moment, that was

0:23:25.320 --> 0:23:29.280
<v Speaker 1>on the road and Kyrie Irving hit that shot. Chris Haynes,

0:23:29.359 --> 0:23:33.480
<v Speaker 1>Yahoo Sports Senior NBA Insider, TNT sideline reporter. He's known

0:23:33.520 --> 0:23:36.400
<v Speaker 1>as Mister Bubble and he joins us on the program.

0:23:36.480 --> 0:23:40.280
<v Speaker 1>Do you have everything packed up right now? Chris? Oh, yeah,

0:23:40.400 --> 0:23:42.600
<v Speaker 1>yes I do. I'm ready. I shipped I shipped things

0:23:42.680 --> 0:23:45.879
<v Speaker 1>ahead of me a couple of days ago. I'm just

0:23:46.000 --> 0:23:48.960
<v Speaker 1>I got some suits in there, so you know, I

0:23:49.000 --> 0:23:52.160
<v Speaker 1>don't I'll never root for a pull for anyone particular

0:23:52.240 --> 0:23:55.119
<v Speaker 1>team to win, but I wouldn't mind if it is.

0:23:57.400 --> 0:23:59.800
<v Speaker 1>I saw where Lebron's already up. He was tweeting people

0:23:59.800 --> 0:24:01.879
<v Speaker 1>at six thirty in the morning just to say that

0:24:01.920 --> 0:24:03.960
<v Speaker 1>he'll sleep when he gets out of the bubble. Here.

0:24:04.320 --> 0:24:06.119
<v Speaker 1>You know, you start to realize this, He's been in

0:24:06.160 --> 0:24:09.359
<v Speaker 1>the bubble ninety one days. How many days have you

0:24:09.400 --> 0:24:13.800
<v Speaker 1>been there? One on two, one o two, not that

0:24:13.840 --> 0:24:16.720
<v Speaker 1>I'm counting, but one on two today. But DP before

0:24:16.760 --> 0:24:18.960
<v Speaker 1>I got I got a pivot, just like the debates

0:24:19.000 --> 0:24:20.760
<v Speaker 1>from last night. You know, they asked, asked you a

0:24:20.840 --> 0:24:25.119
<v Speaker 1>question and they answer something else. So to your point

0:24:25.280 --> 0:24:28.119
<v Speaker 1>about the long ball versus catching a you know, catching

0:24:28.119 --> 0:24:31.360
<v Speaker 1>a pitch. Look, I grew up a big David Justice fan,

0:24:31.600 --> 0:24:35.600
<v Speaker 1>huge David Justice fan, and then David Justice Prime on

0:24:35.640 --> 0:24:40.080
<v Speaker 1>his side with him was Halle Berry. Yes, now, I

0:24:40.160 --> 0:24:43.359
<v Speaker 1>don't recall, you know, David just a big good home rader.

0:24:44.080 --> 0:24:47.800
<v Speaker 1>I don't recall Ozzie Smith having the hot babe, you know,

0:24:48.000 --> 0:24:50.920
<v Speaker 1>one of the best defensive players we ever had in

0:24:51.200 --> 0:24:53.800
<v Speaker 1>this game, I don't recall him having the lights of

0:24:53.840 --> 0:24:56.439
<v Speaker 1>a halle Berry on the side. So with that being said,

0:24:56.880 --> 0:24:59.080
<v Speaker 1>I would pick the long ball. I would pick the

0:24:59.160 --> 0:25:02.000
<v Speaker 1>hit the game win home run any day over a

0:25:02.160 --> 0:25:07.119
<v Speaker 1>game savings. I think as good looking as David Justice was,

0:25:07.560 --> 0:25:11.919
<v Speaker 1>he could be a light hitting catcher and halle Berry

0:25:11.960 --> 0:25:15.720
<v Speaker 1>would still have liked David Justice. So I think, come on,

0:25:16.320 --> 0:25:20.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm probably right. Do you realize that I did an

0:25:20.640 --> 0:25:23.200
<v Speaker 1>interview with David Justice when he was with the Braves

0:25:23.560 --> 0:25:26.239
<v Speaker 1>and I go over to his condo in Atlanta. I

0:25:26.280 --> 0:25:29.080
<v Speaker 1>was working for CNN at the time. And I go

0:25:29.160 --> 0:25:33.919
<v Speaker 1>over and halle Berry's there, and I to the conversation.

0:25:34.000 --> 0:25:37.159
<v Speaker 1>Now nobody knew who halle Berry was. I go in,

0:25:37.280 --> 0:25:40.680
<v Speaker 1>we sit down, we talk, and you know, he says

0:25:40.960 --> 0:25:44.200
<v Speaker 1>during the interview, he says, you know, I don't it's

0:25:44.200 --> 0:25:45.880
<v Speaker 1>hard for me to go to bed at night because

0:25:45.880 --> 0:25:49.360
<v Speaker 1>I'm usually watching you know, sports late at night, and

0:25:49.480 --> 0:25:52.560
<v Speaker 1>she's over on the couch watching this. And I said,

0:25:54.080 --> 0:25:57.920
<v Speaker 1>so out of character, I go, wait, she's in bed

0:25:57.960 --> 0:26:01.640
<v Speaker 1>and you're watching me on TV. And he goes, yes,

0:26:01.840 --> 0:26:05.240
<v Speaker 1>and I went, but it's wrong with you well we

0:26:05.680 --> 0:26:09.080
<v Speaker 1>see why didn't work out. Yeah, because he liked me

0:26:09.119 --> 0:26:11.400
<v Speaker 1>a little bit more than he liked her. I think

0:26:11.800 --> 0:26:15.840
<v Speaker 1>artis all messed up. Is there a chance to Heat extended?

0:26:15.960 --> 0:26:18.000
<v Speaker 1>I mean I get there is a chance, but the

0:26:18.040 --> 0:26:20.880
<v Speaker 1>likelihood of a game six is what in your opinion?

0:26:21.840 --> 0:26:28.280
<v Speaker 1>Oh god? I mean, look, the Heat are a resilient group. Um.

0:26:28.480 --> 0:26:31.240
<v Speaker 1>They fought, they fought back in you know, in game four.

0:26:31.440 --> 0:26:33.480
<v Speaker 1>You know, I didn't expect him to have such a

0:26:34.080 --> 0:26:36.639
<v Speaker 1>such making making such a close game with Bam coming

0:26:36.640 --> 0:26:39.359
<v Speaker 1>back for the first time since Game one. So no,

0:26:39.480 --> 0:26:41.639
<v Speaker 1>there are definitely that there's no quiting his team. And

0:26:41.680 --> 0:26:44.080
<v Speaker 1>I think they've shown it all playoffs and especially all

0:26:44.119 --> 0:26:47.520
<v Speaker 1>regular season long, just how resilient they are. Um. But

0:26:47.640 --> 0:26:51.600
<v Speaker 1>with that being said, man, look, I felt like if

0:26:51.600 --> 0:26:55.320
<v Speaker 1>Miami got Game four and it got Series is two too,

0:26:56.160 --> 0:26:59.359
<v Speaker 1>I felt like Miami may have a good shot of

0:26:59.440 --> 0:27:02.520
<v Speaker 1>taking because I think I think the way that they're

0:27:02.560 --> 0:27:05.239
<v Speaker 1>made up with a bunch of dogs over there, I

0:27:05.320 --> 0:27:08.040
<v Speaker 1>just think they're probably a little bit mentally tougher. But

0:27:08.160 --> 0:27:10.840
<v Speaker 1>I just think person nail wise, especially with the way

0:27:10.920 --> 0:27:13.320
<v Speaker 1>Miami is hurting, that gives the aids to the Lakers.

0:27:13.320 --> 0:27:16.760
<v Speaker 1>So for that alone, I think Lakers get the next game.

0:27:17.000 --> 0:27:20.639
<v Speaker 1>I wondered about this, that Lebron was upset that, you know,

0:27:20.680 --> 0:27:23.040
<v Speaker 1>not that he didn't win the MVP during the regular season,

0:27:23.080 --> 0:27:25.840
<v Speaker 1>that he got very little respect from the voters. You know,

0:27:25.880 --> 0:27:27.840
<v Speaker 1>that the Greek freak ran away with it. And I'm

0:27:27.880 --> 0:27:32.440
<v Speaker 1>wondering if those voters maybe realize or you know, if

0:27:32.440 --> 0:27:34.600
<v Speaker 1>you did a redo right now, Lebron would have been

0:27:34.640 --> 0:27:37.399
<v Speaker 1>the MVP for the season if you included the postseason

0:27:37.440 --> 0:27:39.919
<v Speaker 1>with the regular season. It doesn't work that way. I

0:27:40.000 --> 0:27:42.520
<v Speaker 1>feel like he might get a little more love in

0:27:42.560 --> 0:27:46.399
<v Speaker 1>the bubble for the MVP over Anthony Davis. If you

0:27:46.760 --> 0:27:49.159
<v Speaker 1>do you have a vote, and if so, who are

0:27:49.200 --> 0:27:52.440
<v Speaker 1>you voting for? I do believe I have a vote

0:27:52.520 --> 0:27:56.960
<v Speaker 1>right now based off right like if it ended today. Yeah,

0:27:57.359 --> 0:28:02.760
<v Speaker 1>after four games, Lebron probably gets the ad. Wasn't He

0:28:02.800 --> 0:28:05.560
<v Speaker 1>was unfactable game three, so it wasn't as effective. But

0:28:05.680 --> 0:28:07.720
<v Speaker 1>you know, it's it's funny DP, like, I'm gonna ask

0:28:07.720 --> 0:28:09.680
<v Speaker 1>you this. I was talking to my brother Mark King's

0:28:09.680 --> 0:28:12.320
<v Speaker 1>about this, you know, being I have a vote. So

0:28:12.359 --> 0:28:15.560
<v Speaker 1>when you vote for finals MVP, it depends on the voter.

0:28:16.640 --> 0:28:21.760
<v Speaker 1>Do you vote the winner based on their performances a

0:28:21.840 --> 0:28:25.520
<v Speaker 1>cumulative in all four wins, or do you base it

0:28:25.800 --> 0:28:30.080
<v Speaker 1>off the course of the whole seven game series. I

0:28:30.080 --> 0:28:32.680
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't have a problem with either one. And they don't

0:28:32.720 --> 0:28:36.800
<v Speaker 1>give you guidelines because because every year I would vote

0:28:36.880 --> 0:28:40.840
<v Speaker 1>Jordan MVP for the regular season and even though Charles

0:28:40.840 --> 0:28:42.880
<v Speaker 1>won at one time, Carl Malone won at one time,

0:28:42.920 --> 0:28:45.120
<v Speaker 1>I just said, there's no more valuable person to the

0:28:45.240 --> 0:28:48.400
<v Speaker 1>NBA than Michael Jordan. You get to the finals and

0:28:48.480 --> 0:28:52.440
<v Speaker 1>I would vote Michael. He was just but he didn't

0:28:52.480 --> 0:28:55.240
<v Speaker 1>have like Scottie could have a really good game, but

0:28:55.280 --> 0:28:57.480
<v Speaker 1>it was still all about Michael. Lebron can have a

0:28:57.520 --> 0:28:59.920
<v Speaker 1>really good game, but Anthony Davis is capable of having

0:29:00.120 --> 0:29:02.680
<v Speaker 1>some great games. You might look at this because I said,

0:29:02.880 --> 0:29:06.680
<v Speaker 1>I hope the voters give strong consideration to Jimmy Butler

0:29:07.640 --> 0:29:11.120
<v Speaker 1>for just some votes for MVP, for what he's done

0:29:11.160 --> 0:29:14.200
<v Speaker 1>with that team in the bubble and standing up to

0:29:14.280 --> 0:29:17.440
<v Speaker 1>Lebron in company, you know, and if they got one

0:29:17.480 --> 0:29:20.600
<v Speaker 1>more win, like Jerry West won the MVP and the

0:29:20.680 --> 0:29:23.840
<v Speaker 1>Lakers lost to the Celtics and Jerry was the best

0:29:23.840 --> 0:29:26.560
<v Speaker 1>player on the floor. But Jimmy Butler has gone toe

0:29:26.600 --> 0:29:29.640
<v Speaker 1>to toe with everybody in the bubble and taking a

0:29:29.840 --> 0:29:32.920
<v Speaker 1>ragtag team that nobody gave a chance to. And I

0:29:33.360 --> 0:29:35.040
<v Speaker 1>he would be the one that I would lean towards.

0:29:35.040 --> 0:29:37.560
<v Speaker 1>If you want to surprise vote, it'd be Jimmy Butler

0:29:37.640 --> 0:29:42.200
<v Speaker 1>for the accumulation of everything. But this is Lebron, and

0:29:42.840 --> 0:29:44.880
<v Speaker 1>I think Lebron's gonna be your MV. I think he's

0:29:44.880 --> 0:29:46.840
<v Speaker 1>going to have a performance that it's gonna make it

0:29:46.880 --> 0:29:49.280
<v Speaker 1>easy for you to vote for Lebron. James. Yeah, not

0:29:49.360 --> 0:29:51.440
<v Speaker 1>that you know, I would. I can. It would be

0:29:51.480 --> 0:29:54.440
<v Speaker 1>hard to give my vote to a player on a

0:29:54.480 --> 0:30:00.120
<v Speaker 1>losing team. But I posed that question because a he

0:30:00.240 --> 0:30:04.760
<v Speaker 1>had a suspect Game three, but they lost that game.

0:30:05.040 --> 0:30:07.280
<v Speaker 1>So I was saying, you know, do you hold that

0:30:07.320 --> 0:30:09.920
<v Speaker 1>against him in the four games that he won? And

0:30:09.960 --> 0:30:11.840
<v Speaker 1>if he you know, if you produce and had a

0:30:11.880 --> 0:30:14.760
<v Speaker 1>star after an awful game, so as it right now Lebron.

0:30:14.800 --> 0:30:17.840
<v Speaker 1>But we'll see. Yeah, but you know, I never know

0:30:17.920 --> 0:30:22.240
<v Speaker 1>because Lebron's so polarizing that, you know, do people want

0:30:22.240 --> 0:30:23.920
<v Speaker 1>to vote for him? Do they think it's a great

0:30:23.960 --> 0:30:26.320
<v Speaker 1>story or do they not want to vote for Lebron

0:30:26.360 --> 0:30:27.960
<v Speaker 1>and they want to give it to a D because

0:30:28.520 --> 0:30:32.960
<v Speaker 1>you know, big stage in Los Angeles, nobody knew if

0:30:33.000 --> 0:30:36.000
<v Speaker 1>he had this mental makeup, and you know he's played

0:30:36.520 --> 0:30:38.760
<v Speaker 1>I mean the defense he played in the last game,

0:30:39.160 --> 0:30:40.960
<v Speaker 1>like that was a difference maker what he did on

0:30:41.040 --> 0:30:43.240
<v Speaker 1>Jimmy Butler. But you know, we look at the glossy

0:30:43.320 --> 0:30:45.840
<v Speaker 1>stats there and I you know, Lebrono put up a

0:30:45.840 --> 0:30:48.760
<v Speaker 1>triple double and you know, the Lakers win, and I

0:30:48.760 --> 0:30:52.080
<v Speaker 1>think lebron will be your MVP. So I wouldn't lose sleepover,

0:30:52.800 --> 0:30:55.800
<v Speaker 1>but I know that, you know, if you really care

0:30:55.840 --> 0:30:57.960
<v Speaker 1>about it, then you agonize over to a little bit.

0:30:58.560 --> 0:31:01.719
<v Speaker 1>I voted for Rookie of the Year and changed my

0:31:01.840 --> 0:31:04.120
<v Speaker 1>vote on the day the votes were going in with

0:31:04.240 --> 0:31:10.120
<v Speaker 1>Jason Kidd and Grant Hill and it ended up a tie. Yeah, Chris,

0:31:10.960 --> 0:31:14.200
<v Speaker 1>that ended up a tie, and I to this day,

0:31:14.680 --> 0:31:18.400
<v Speaker 1>I was I still think back and go, did I

0:31:18.440 --> 0:31:20.840
<v Speaker 1>make the right decision that day? And it was just

0:31:20.880 --> 0:31:22.800
<v Speaker 1>for Rookie of the Year. And I said it to

0:31:22.840 --> 0:31:25.640
<v Speaker 1>both Jason Kidd and Grant Hill that I did that,

0:31:25.800 --> 0:31:29.800
<v Speaker 1>and I didn't tell him who I voted for. But yeah,

0:31:30.200 --> 0:31:32.080
<v Speaker 1>you know, if you care about it, and then it's

0:31:32.080 --> 0:31:34.360
<v Speaker 1>a privilege like the Heisman. I care about it. I

0:31:34.400 --> 0:31:36.720
<v Speaker 1>get a chance to vote on it, and you know

0:31:37.200 --> 0:31:40.960
<v Speaker 1>you're you're kind of sourcing this out to see what's best. Yeah,

0:31:40.960 --> 0:31:44.880
<v Speaker 1>I think you were all right in that DP. You know,

0:31:44.920 --> 0:31:47.520
<v Speaker 1>those two, those two end up having you know, great careers.

0:31:47.560 --> 0:31:50.360
<v Speaker 1>Obviously Grant was cut short, but you know it was

0:31:50.440 --> 0:31:52.520
<v Speaker 1>it was dessert. It's like when you looking back at

0:31:52.560 --> 0:31:54.080
<v Speaker 1>some of the co rookie of the years, you could

0:31:54.120 --> 0:31:57.040
<v Speaker 1>look back and say, that's fine, you know what I mean,

0:31:57.120 --> 0:31:59.920
<v Speaker 1>Like like it was tough to pick you to war.

0:32:00.120 --> 0:32:02.960
<v Speaker 1>Whether whether it ended up a true tie though, Chris,

0:32:03.000 --> 0:32:05.720
<v Speaker 1>That's what I always wonder because sometimes they go, let's

0:32:05.760 --> 0:32:08.000
<v Speaker 1>just give it to both of them. Yeah, So I

0:32:08.040 --> 0:32:10.680
<v Speaker 1>think what finals MVP? I believe it's it's an odd

0:32:10.760 --> 0:32:14.440
<v Speaker 1>number of writers who get who get the picket, so

0:32:14.760 --> 0:32:17.080
<v Speaker 1>there's no way you can get a co finals MVP.

0:32:17.560 --> 0:32:21.120
<v Speaker 1>What are you hearing about the start in next season? So,

0:32:21.360 --> 0:32:23.840
<v Speaker 1>according to Adam Silver, who spoke with us, let me

0:32:23.840 --> 0:32:28.520
<v Speaker 1>see a few days ago at the earliest would be Christmas,

0:32:28.920 --> 0:32:33.800
<v Speaker 1>but it's looking more more like some point the latter

0:32:33.840 --> 0:32:36.440
<v Speaker 1>part of January, and so I think that's what most

0:32:36.440 --> 0:32:40.880
<v Speaker 1>players are expecting. Is there anything that is going to

0:32:40.960 --> 0:32:43.200
<v Speaker 1>happen before they started next season that we should keep

0:32:43.240 --> 0:32:47.440
<v Speaker 1>an eye on. I mean no, I mean, I mean

0:32:47.480 --> 0:32:50.400
<v Speaker 1>we have some coaching vacancies, which I'm kind of surprised

0:32:50.400 --> 0:32:54.200
<v Speaker 1>we haven't filled those. What's the hold up with Indiana

0:32:54.320 --> 0:32:58.280
<v Speaker 1>with Houston, with New Orleans? Well, I think Indiana has

0:32:58.320 --> 0:33:01.520
<v Speaker 1>to see figure out see what the Clippers are going

0:33:01.560 --> 0:33:04.360
<v Speaker 1>to do first because obviously that's the most marquee job

0:33:04.400 --> 0:33:06.640
<v Speaker 1>that's available right now, and so you kind of want

0:33:06.640 --> 0:33:09.560
<v Speaker 1>to see what names emerged from that candidacy and then

0:33:09.640 --> 0:33:11.640
<v Speaker 1>maybe you can pluck a few of those of guys

0:33:11.640 --> 0:33:14.560
<v Speaker 1>over to interview for your position. So uh, you know,

0:33:15.040 --> 0:33:17.920
<v Speaker 1>LA Clippers there and win. Now. You know, desperation mode

0:33:17.960 --> 0:33:19.440
<v Speaker 1>right now. So they got to get a guy who's

0:33:19.440 --> 0:33:21.960
<v Speaker 1>going to command respect from day one. Your names like

0:33:22.040 --> 0:33:25.080
<v Speaker 1>Jeff Van Gundy, Tyron Lou spoke to them last weekend.

0:33:25.160 --> 0:33:28.240
<v Speaker 1>So uh, that's that's the job. I think the other

0:33:28.280 --> 0:33:30.560
<v Speaker 1>teams want to kind of wait and see what happens there.

0:33:31.040 --> 0:33:34.480
<v Speaker 1>I want to thank you for joining us as many

0:33:34.520 --> 0:33:37.360
<v Speaker 1>times as you did, and you know, you were always

0:33:37.360 --> 0:33:40.120
<v Speaker 1>fun and we appreciate it. I know it's been tough

0:33:40.200 --> 0:33:42.360
<v Speaker 1>to be in there. Over one hundred days, but you

0:33:42.440 --> 0:33:46.520
<v Speaker 1>always had a smile and uh, we appreciate our audience

0:33:46.560 --> 0:33:49.840
<v Speaker 1>really appreciated your contributions. And we missed the shoes in

0:33:49.880 --> 0:33:52.360

<v Speaker 1>six allowed three runs. He also became the first pitcher

0:35:26.040 --> 0:35:29.240
<v Speaker 1>ever to allow back to back home runs three different

0:35:29.239 --> 0:35:32.279
<v Speaker 1>times in a postseason career. But they get the win

0:35:32.360 --> 0:35:35.319
<v Speaker 1>in dramatic fashion. John Smoltz, who was on the call

0:35:35.480 --> 0:35:37.880
<v Speaker 1>last night for Fox, he will join us coming up

0:35:47.200 --> 0:35:49.400
<v Speaker 1>it whatever it takes to get the job done. The

0:35:49.440 --> 0:35:52.839
<v Speaker 1>home Depot. How doers get more done? Cody Bellinger had

0:35:52.840 --> 0:35:55.759
<v Speaker 1>the great catch for the Dodgers, and this is what

0:35:55.800 --> 0:35:58.520
<v Speaker 1>he had to say about the catch in the post game.

0:35:59.000 --> 0:36:02.000
<v Speaker 1>You're the first player since two and twelve that's hit

0:36:02.000 --> 0:36:05.200
<v Speaker 1>a postseason home run and robbed a postseason home run

0:36:05.280 --> 0:36:09.239
<v Speaker 1>since ESPN started taking the robbery stat what is more

0:36:09.280 --> 0:36:11.719
<v Speaker 1>exhilarating knowing that you can actually hit a home run

0:36:11.760 --> 0:36:13.480
<v Speaker 1>in this park and get your team on the board,

0:36:13.800 --> 0:36:17.160
<v Speaker 1>But being able to rob one like that, I would

0:36:17.160 --> 0:36:21.080
<v Speaker 1>say catch one, specially enter those circumstances. I'll take that

0:36:21.080 --> 0:36:24.280
<v Speaker 1>one over the homer for sure. And that's the right answer,

0:36:24.600 --> 0:36:27.000
<v Speaker 1>because there are a lot of home runs to win games.

0:36:27.520 --> 0:36:30.880
<v Speaker 1>There aren't many great catches like that. You're robbing somebody

0:36:30.880 --> 0:36:32.919
<v Speaker 1>of a home run to win a game doesn't happen

0:36:33.040 --> 0:36:35.400
<v Speaker 1>very often. All right? Eight seven seven three d P

0:36:35.520 --> 0:36:38.280
<v Speaker 1>show email address DP at dan Patrick dot com. Once again,

0:36:38.560 --> 0:36:41.399
<v Speaker 1>our leads story has to do with the Titans. There

0:36:41.480 --> 0:36:44.440
<v Speaker 1>is a chance the Titans not only won't play this

0:36:44.480 --> 0:36:47.359
<v Speaker 1>game this weekend against Buffalo, but that game could be

0:36:47.400 --> 0:36:51.400
<v Speaker 1>forfeited here and the NFL has been investigating the Titans,

0:36:51.480 --> 0:36:54.279
<v Speaker 1>so we're keeping an eye on that. Any information we have,

0:36:54.680 --> 0:36:57.320
<v Speaker 1>we'll bring that to you, mcleven. We settle on a

0:36:57.360 --> 0:36:59.120
<v Speaker 1>pull question here, Yeah, I put up, would you rather

0:36:59.320 --> 0:37:00.759
<v Speaker 1>rob a home run on to win a game or

0:37:00.840 --> 0:37:03.880
<v Speaker 1>hit a home run to win a game with a

0:37:03.920 --> 0:37:11.319
<v Speaker 1>home run not rob Oh really good. I mean it's

0:37:11.320 --> 0:37:15.080
<v Speaker 1>the more classic sports moment. You know, it's it, but

0:37:15.160 --> 0:37:18.560
<v Speaker 1>it's not as unique though. I mean yeah, I mean

0:37:18.600 --> 0:37:20.759
<v Speaker 1>it wasn't a walk off, it was. It was in

0:37:20.760 --> 0:37:23.960
<v Speaker 1>the middle of the game too. I don't think yeah, see,

0:37:24.200 --> 0:37:26.080
<v Speaker 1>I think part of it is though. It's like as

0:37:26.120 --> 0:37:28.240
<v Speaker 1>a kid, it's what you dreamed of doing, was hitting

0:37:28.400 --> 0:37:30.799
<v Speaker 1>a game winning home run or you know, hitting the

0:37:30.840 --> 0:37:33.080
<v Speaker 1>game winning shot. It's like all of those kinds of things.

0:37:33.120 --> 0:37:36.319
<v Speaker 1>You know. Tom Brady, I guess, is buying a house

0:37:36.320 --> 0:37:40.879
<v Speaker 1>in Tampa. Case you care about this. TMZ Sports had

0:37:40.960 --> 0:37:43.879
<v Speaker 1>some pictures there, seven and a half million dollars waterfront

0:37:44.120 --> 0:37:48.239
<v Speaker 1>estate in a private community. I didn't think he'd be

0:37:48.239 --> 0:37:51.520
<v Speaker 1>in a like just a regular community. There's you bedroom

0:37:51.520 --> 0:37:56.280
<v Speaker 1>bungob behind a strip ball. Yeah, five bedroom modern house,

0:37:56.360 --> 0:38:00.680
<v Speaker 1>integated community in Clearwater, Florida. He had to move out

0:38:00.680 --> 0:38:04.320
<v Speaker 1>of Derek Jeter's mansion that was the Jeets is selling

0:38:04.360 --> 0:38:08.719
<v Speaker 1>that for twenty nine million, So Brady is going to

0:38:08.760 --> 0:38:12.560
<v Speaker 1>get his own own spot there. And it's got a

0:38:12.560 --> 0:38:17.640
<v Speaker 1>private gym, theater, billiard room, media center, and has an

0:38:17.680 --> 0:38:21.120
<v Speaker 1>elevator in there. And then there's an empty lot next

0:38:21.200 --> 0:38:23.520
<v Speaker 1>door if Tom would like to expand, So that's for

0:38:23.600 --> 0:38:26.440
<v Speaker 1>sale as well, just to let you know that Tom

0:38:26.840 --> 0:38:29.040
<v Speaker 1>is doing okay in Tampa. Sounds like he's gonna make

0:38:29.080 --> 0:38:31.640
<v Speaker 1>Tampa home for a little while longer. That's not a

0:38:31.719 --> 0:38:34.480
<v Speaker 1>one and done though, Like that's definitely I'm here for

0:38:34.520 --> 0:38:37.080
<v Speaker 1>at least two more years. Yeah, Poll, I'm looking on

0:38:37.200 --> 0:38:39.520
<v Speaker 1>Zillo right now, Dan, and seven point five million is

0:38:39.560 --> 0:38:43.440
<v Speaker 1>not even close to the highest price house in the area.

0:38:43.600 --> 0:38:46.080
<v Speaker 1>There's houses. I got a four or five houses in

0:38:46.160 --> 0:38:49.920
<v Speaker 1>the twenty millions. I got a dozen houses over ten

0:38:50.000 --> 0:38:52.920
<v Speaker 1>million dollars. Brady getting a little frugal. Well, he doesn't

0:38:52.920 --> 0:38:55.520
<v Speaker 1>want to go all in in Tampa because how long

0:38:55.560 --> 0:38:57.120
<v Speaker 1>is he going to stay? And then you're trying to

0:38:57.200 --> 0:39:01.160
<v Speaker 1>unload something like that, chiefs Grady. Not all in that

0:39:01.320 --> 0:39:05.440
<v Speaker 1>bucks question mark. Giselle wants to stay home? Who no

0:39:05.560 --> 0:39:08.480
<v Speaker 1>more modeling. I was told that Giselle she wanted to

0:39:08.520 --> 0:39:12.560
<v Speaker 1>be in Miami, And well, I can understand, you know,

0:39:12.600 --> 0:39:16.520
<v Speaker 1>she like, you know, being a model, and you know

0:39:16.560 --> 0:39:18.600
<v Speaker 1>you could be in Miami and probably a lot more

0:39:18.640 --> 0:39:22.120
<v Speaker 1>opportunities there, but instead, you know, going to Tampa. Not

0:39:22.200 --> 0:39:24.080
<v Speaker 1>that it was he was going to play for the Dolphins.

0:39:24.080 --> 0:39:26.520
<v Speaker 1>But there was talk would you know that, would the

0:39:26.560 --> 0:39:30.200
<v Speaker 1>Dolphins be interested in Tom Brady? But I go back

0:39:30.200 --> 0:39:32.160
<v Speaker 1>to you know when I told you that, a source said,

0:39:32.200 --> 0:39:34.920
<v Speaker 1>you know, the Chicago Bears were on the shortlist as

0:39:34.960 --> 0:39:38.200
<v Speaker 1>one of the three teams, the Chargers, Buccaneers, and Bears.

0:39:38.680 --> 0:39:41.600
<v Speaker 1>And now you have Brady playing against the Bears coming

0:39:41.680 --> 0:39:45.319
<v Speaker 1>up tonight. You asked McLevin, a lot of people will

0:39:45.360 --> 0:39:47.480
<v Speaker 1>retire in Tampa. You think he could. I think he

0:39:47.480 --> 0:39:50.120
<v Speaker 1>could settle there. Always settled in Denver and he was

0:39:50.120 --> 0:39:53.720
<v Speaker 1>only there for three years. I don't know what Tom's

0:39:53.719 --> 0:39:57.120
<v Speaker 1>plans are. I'm sorry you didn't paying Manny settled in Denver. No, Yeah,

0:39:57.200 --> 0:40:01.239
<v Speaker 1>that's right, and he wasn't there that long. Andrew Luck

0:40:01.320 --> 0:40:05.880
<v Speaker 1>is still in Indianapolis. The community, good schools, good schools.

0:40:06.680 --> 0:40:10.880
<v Speaker 1>Oh all right, so we got our poll question. By

0:40:10.920 --> 0:40:14.960
<v Speaker 1>the way, in case you're wondering, Lebron James in closeout games,

0:40:14.960 --> 0:40:17.920
<v Speaker 1>so his teams two in Miami, won in Cleveland, three

0:40:17.920 --> 0:40:20.279
<v Speaker 1>and oh in finals games when they stand to win,

0:40:20.680 --> 0:40:23.520
<v Speaker 1>they're a win away from the championship. All time, Lebron

0:40:24.120 --> 0:40:27.240
<v Speaker 1>his teams are thirty eight and ten in games where

0:40:27.239 --> 0:40:29.880
<v Speaker 1>they have a chance to close out this series. So

0:40:30.560 --> 0:40:34.080
<v Speaker 1>I think the inspiration motivation is I've been in this

0:40:34.120 --> 0:40:38.759
<v Speaker 1>bubble for ninety one days, let's win this thing. And

0:40:38.800 --> 0:40:41.760
<v Speaker 1>then they didn't want to go up against Thursday night football,

0:40:41.880 --> 0:40:45.319
<v Speaker 1>so now you have Friday night. Talk about oh, by

0:40:45.360 --> 0:40:48.640
<v Speaker 1>the way, there's a basketball game on Friday night and

0:40:49.000 --> 0:40:51.480
<v Speaker 1>that's the power of football. Yeah, mccleven. I mean we

0:40:51.480 --> 0:40:53.680
<v Speaker 1>could come in Monday morning, the Lakers can have a

0:40:53.680 --> 0:40:55.879
<v Speaker 1>title and it's gonna feel Would that feel a little old?

0:40:55.920 --> 0:41:01.440
<v Speaker 1>If they want on Friday, the other game is Sunday,

0:41:01.760 --> 0:41:05.680
<v Speaker 1>they'll miss out on the news cycle. If they played tonight,

0:41:06.120 --> 0:41:08.120
<v Speaker 1>then they would get a piece of the news cycle.

0:41:08.400 --> 0:41:10.279
<v Speaker 1>But you know, if you do it late Friday night,

0:41:10.480 --> 0:41:12.359
<v Speaker 1>we always talk about a news dump. If you want

0:41:12.360 --> 0:41:15.400
<v Speaker 1>a story to go away, you see five o'clock Eastern

0:41:15.600 --> 0:41:19.120
<v Speaker 1>on Friday, that's when you go and hey, we're releasing

0:41:19.120 --> 0:41:21.759
<v Speaker 1>this information. The NFL is famous for doing this. Be

0:41:21.920 --> 0:41:24.600
<v Speaker 1>like a story came out on Friday at five o'clock

0:41:24.800 --> 0:41:28.759
<v Speaker 1>because everybody's pretty much, let's go home and enjoy the weekend. Yes, Todd,

0:41:28.840 --> 0:41:31.360
<v Speaker 1>how much is the reason the game's not tonight is

0:41:31.360 --> 0:41:34.480
<v Speaker 1>because of Brady specifically, or just any random NFL Week

0:41:34.560 --> 0:41:38.960
<v Speaker 1>five game would destroy a clinching NBA Finals game. Is

0:41:38.960 --> 0:41:41.320
<v Speaker 1>that what we're saying. Well, it's been scheduled for weeks,

0:41:41.800 --> 0:41:44.480
<v Speaker 1>so I don't know if they went we can't go

0:41:44.520 --> 0:41:47.879
<v Speaker 1>against tom Brady. If Tom Brady's not playing and they're

0:41:48.000 --> 0:41:52.560
<v Speaker 1>oh and four, then I mean it's still gonna be Friday.

0:41:52.680 --> 0:41:55.120
<v Speaker 1>There's are so many games that are Tuesday Thursday, Tuesday Thursday.

0:41:55.120 --> 0:41:56.719
<v Speaker 1>When you think of the NBA, it just seems very

0:41:56.719 --> 0:41:58.920
<v Speaker 1>odd all of a sudden, they're making everybody stay in

0:41:58.920 --> 0:42:01.279
<v Speaker 1>the bubble at least one more because football. Yeah, but

0:42:01.280 --> 0:42:03.760
<v Speaker 1>they've always done it. They cater to the TV audience.

0:42:03.880 --> 0:42:05.720
<v Speaker 1>That's why they have these games on at nine o'clock

0:42:05.760 --> 0:42:08.360
<v Speaker 1>at ninth. They're catering to try to get the biggest

0:42:08.360 --> 0:42:12.480
<v Speaker 1>audience with Los Angeles, you know that market there. You

0:42:12.560 --> 0:42:15.520
<v Speaker 1>know the NBA is transparent about that, but you don't

0:42:15.520 --> 0:42:18.840
<v Speaker 1>want to go up against the NFL. You know, the

0:42:18.920 --> 0:42:21.600
<v Speaker 1>ratings have been kind of soft anyways. I think the

0:42:22.000 --> 0:42:25.200
<v Speaker 1>NBA just is saying, look, we just want to get

0:42:25.239 --> 0:42:27.920
<v Speaker 1>to the finish line here. It's the same thing with baseball,

0:42:28.000 --> 0:42:30.399
<v Speaker 1>it was the same thing with hockey. You just want

0:42:30.400 --> 0:42:34.480
<v Speaker 1>to have a season or reasonable facts, simile, and you

0:42:34.520 --> 0:42:36.920
<v Speaker 1>know these leagues have done the best they possibly can.

0:42:37.120 --> 0:42:40.600
<v Speaker 1>NBA and NHL, they did the best they can. And

0:42:40.640 --> 0:42:43.680
<v Speaker 1>then you hope that next year looks different, and it

0:42:43.719 --> 0:42:47.280
<v Speaker 1>feels different. It is different. But that's all the NBA

0:42:47.360 --> 0:42:51.160
<v Speaker 1>wants is if we have soft ratings, let's just get

0:42:51.160 --> 0:42:55.080
<v Speaker 1>a champion. That's what they want. You want a champion Baseball.

0:42:55.360 --> 0:42:57.759
<v Speaker 1>They didn't care about the regular season. Boy, they care

0:42:57.800 --> 0:43:00.600
<v Speaker 1>about the postseason. John Smoltz was on the call the

0:43:00.640 --> 0:43:03.520
<v Speaker 1>Dodgers win last night. There's some bad blood there. I

0:43:03.600 --> 0:43:07.279
<v Speaker 1>like it. Padres and Dodgers. Also, Troy Aikman calls out

0:43:07.280 --> 0:43:12.000
<v Speaker 1>the Cowboys. J J. Watt did he play a role

0:43:12.040 --> 0:43:15.120
<v Speaker 1>in Bill O'Brien being fired as the Texans head coach.

0:43:15.360 --> 0:43:16.279
<v Speaker 1>More on that coming up,
