1
00:00:01,080 --> 00:00:03,800
Speaker 1: You're listening to Fox Sports Radio Radio.

2
00:00:04,120 --> 00:00:07,840
Speaker 2: Hey Grannys, and welcome in another beautiful Fox Sports Sunday.

3
00:00:07,920 --> 00:00:12,039
Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio. The world is our oyster once again,

4
00:00:12,119 --> 00:00:16,120
Speaker 2: as the Olympics continue full slate of Major League Baseball

5
00:00:16,840 --> 00:00:19,160
Speaker 2: Hall of Fame games. Now in the books, we saw

6
00:00:19,200 --> 00:00:22,119
Speaker 2: the kickoff rule. I may or may not have said

7
00:00:22,160 --> 00:00:25,800
Speaker 2: something on the show with Jason Smith that if isolated,

8
00:00:25,840 --> 00:00:28,560
Speaker 2: could have people coming from my head. Welcome in. I'm

9
00:00:28,600 --> 00:00:31,680
Speaker 2: Mike Carbon alongside my guy Ryan Hollins. Ten years in

10
00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:35,839
Speaker 2: the NBA working with the Houston Rockets. You see him

11
00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:40,160
Speaker 2: depicted fictionally on clip, you see him in reality Master

12
00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:43,960
Speaker 2: Thespian and Uncut Gems, and you hear him on the

13
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:47,120
Speaker 2: Opinionated Seven Footers podcast. It's Ryan Hollins. What's going on?

14
00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:48,920
Speaker 3: Ryan? What's up? How you doing?

15
00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:49,120
Speaker 4: Man?

16
00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:51,640
Speaker 2: Another day in Paradise. As we get going, we've got

17
00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:55,760
Speaker 2: our team fully assembled. We are either Voltron or the Avengers,

18
00:00:55,800 --> 00:00:58,440
Speaker 2: depending on which path you want to take there. So

19
00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:01,440
Speaker 2: we've got that role in a full slate. As you

20
00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:06,360
Speaker 2: said of the Olympic activity is already underway, got cycling

21
00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:10,440
Speaker 2: and water polo, archery. We got a guy that was

22
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:13,600
Speaker 2: straight out of Central Casting in Brady Ellison. I was

23
00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:17,480
Speaker 2: commenting to Brianna and Chris as were coming on. They

24
00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:19,800
Speaker 2: took away some of the magic right away because they

25
00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:23,640
Speaker 2: showed the camera on the ground as it's tracking around

26
00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:27,119
Speaker 2: the guys to get all those great three sixty angles.

27
00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:30,520
Speaker 2: Ryan and I don't know. I know, I live in

28
00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:32,960
Speaker 2: Hollywood and I've seen the tours and I've seen some

29
00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:35,480
Speaker 2: of them behind the scenes. Sometimes I just need the magic.

30
00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:38,520
Speaker 2: I don't need to see the little railroad track unless

31
00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:40,119
Speaker 2: there's actually a little chucchu going.

32
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:44,679
Speaker 3: Around straight to it. Ben, No, I just stand. I

33
00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:45,199
Speaker 3: get it.

34
00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:49,560
Speaker 2: So yeah, So there's pre piece one. The other is

35
00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:53,040
Speaker 2: we're watching the golf final, right, and Chris Praphatt was

36
00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:57,400
Speaker 2: doing some updates and he's found the matchup. So I'm

37
00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:01,240
Speaker 2: excited here. But it reminds me of a lot say

38
00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:05,320
Speaker 2: youth sports. Right, you play soccer or maybe you know

39
00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:09,200
Speaker 2: you're in basketball leagues and you've traveled to tournaments, and

40
00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:11,600
Speaker 2: then you end up playing the team from down the street,

41
00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:16,040
Speaker 2: even though you're hundreds of miles away from where you

42
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:18,560
Speaker 2: should be. Like for my daughter's squad, they've had that

43
00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:20,600
Speaker 2: happen a couple of times. Hey, who are you playing

44
00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:23,000
Speaker 2: in the playoffs. Oh yeah, we're in Virginia, but we're

45
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:25,720
Speaker 2: gonna play a team, another team from southern California. Here,

46
00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:28,480
Speaker 2: we've got Shaffley and Ram battling it out. It's like

47
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:31,240
Speaker 2: we couldn't have done the state side, couldn't have just

48
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:35,960
Speaker 2: finished it. Matsiyama now has entered the party, as has Fleetwoods.

49
00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:40,239
Speaker 2: You've got a veritable battle royale at the top of

50
00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:44,440
Speaker 2: the board. But it's that fun time, right. Metal season

51
00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:47,960
Speaker 2: is upon us final day of the swimming events, and

52
00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:50,600
Speaker 2: certainly a lot of eyes and a lot of mouths

53
00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:54,519
Speaker 2: and hot take nonsense. Floating back to the men's and

54
00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:58,440
Speaker 2: women's basketball squads. We've got plenty on the men's side

55
00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:01,720
Speaker 2: to get to as we roll through the day. Ryan,

56
00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:04,200
Speaker 2: But you know one thing, you know, you and I

57
00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:06,959
Speaker 2: went back and forth with a little bit in the

58
00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:13,040
Speaker 2: planning structure, is the difficulty of trying to reconcile if

59
00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:17,720
Speaker 2: you finish second in an event, right, the lifetime of training,

60
00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:21,360
Speaker 2: all the things you skipped out on, all the parties,

61
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:25,880
Speaker 2: all the maybe what everybody else would say is a cheat,

62
00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:29,080
Speaker 2: you could call a cheap meal. As an athlete, everybody

63
00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:31,600
Speaker 2: else just calls Tuesday. You know, all of those kind

64
00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:34,840
Speaker 2: of things that you skip out on and then you

65
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:38,080
Speaker 2: have margins of victory where it's literally, I don't know,

66
00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:41,360
Speaker 2: the tip of your finger to the wrist separates you

67
00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:44,880
Speaker 2: from gold and silver and maybe the riches that come

68
00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:45,280
Speaker 2: from it.

69
00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:51,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, and here's the thing, you know, all second places

70
00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:55,400
Speaker 3: are not created equal. You know. For some people they've

71
00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:58,880
Speaker 3: overchieved it was a surprise. Hey, maybe one of the

72
00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:03,960
Speaker 3: countries medals, you know, and it's a lifetime achievement. And

73
00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:09,320
Speaker 3: when you go to the Olympics and you underachieve, that's

74
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:13,400
Speaker 3: what sits with you. That's what you never forget when

75
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:17,159
Speaker 3: there's incentive for you to be a champion, for you

76
00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:19,599
Speaker 3: to win gold. And it's not that, hey, you should

77
00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:22,480
Speaker 3: ever shrug or hang your head, but when you have

78
00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:26,760
Speaker 3: four years of gold expectation, that's something to live with.

79
00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:28,839
Speaker 3: And you know, Mike, I don't know if I told

80
00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:32,240
Speaker 3: you this my opinion. Maybe it's unpopular, maybe some people

81
00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:34,720
Speaker 3: don't get it, maybe I just don't understand the logistics.

82
00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:37,080
Speaker 2: But at the Ryan Hollins for those that are going

83
00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:39,960
Speaker 2: to disagree at smallendb Yeah, and I just had to

84
00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:41,839
Speaker 2: make sure that we a you're right. We let people

85
00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:44,279
Speaker 2: start clicking clocking on the keyboards, So go ahead.

86
00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:47,040
Speaker 3: I know it takes a lot to make it happen,

87
00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:49,440
Speaker 3: and I don't know what today's technology why we wouldn't

88
00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:52,320
Speaker 3: be able to. I think the Olympics should be every

89
00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:57,080
Speaker 3: two years. I don't like that in four years, someone

90
00:04:57,080 --> 00:05:01,480
Speaker 3: could literally go out of their prime. These athletes compete

91
00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:05,839
Speaker 3: every summer, every year in their sport, why not every

92
00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:08,880
Speaker 3: two years. We enjoy it. It brings people together. It

93
00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:12,679
Speaker 3: could be amazing experience. But when you take that long

94
00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:16,599
Speaker 3: to compete, you just miss out on so much. I

95
00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:18,279
Speaker 3: think it could be really something special.

96
00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:22,200
Speaker 2: Well, when when we talk about hosting and event planning,

97
00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:25,240
Speaker 2: this this is where the curiosity always comes bidding processes

98
00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:29,360
Speaker 2: and I'm not going to go down the well as

99
00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:32,960
Speaker 2: it were related to what we've had in FIFA and others,

100
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:36,080
Speaker 2: you know, buying for games. Certainly the Olympics has had

101
00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:39,080
Speaker 2: some stay ins through the years, right in terms of

102
00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:42,880
Speaker 2: choices and decision processes. And you know, you raise your

103
00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:45,119
Speaker 2: hand going how did this happen? Why did this happen?

104
00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:50,919
Speaker 2: Et cetera. But yeah, whenever you're talking about an event

105
00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:55,719
Speaker 2: that large, the machine kind of rolls forward. Right, We've

106
00:05:55,760 --> 00:06:01,080
Speaker 2: got plenty of global cities, infrastructure build in many of them,

107
00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:04,800
Speaker 2: and for the opportunity to bring in the tourism and

108
00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:07,000
Speaker 2: the dollars that this is where we start getting into

109
00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:09,800
Speaker 2: I think some of the fuzzy math in terms of

110
00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:11,920
Speaker 2: cities and hosting because we do this with all other

111
00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:16,880
Speaker 2: big major events in the US. Right, it's like, all right,

112
00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:20,240
Speaker 2: does this really work? Or when a team's holding out

113
00:06:20,279 --> 00:06:22,400
Speaker 2: saying all right, we're gonna leave unless you build us

114
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:25,560
Speaker 2: a new stadium. Sometimes it gets really fuzzy on the

115
00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:28,400
Speaker 2: math because you can always hide it, hide some of

116
00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:33,280
Speaker 2: the profits in your subsidiaries and ancillary holding companies and stuff.

117
00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:37,359
Speaker 2: So that is always a curiosity. But I think I

118
00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:39,839
Speaker 2: agree with you to the point of, hey, give the

119
00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:43,920
Speaker 2: athletes more opportunity to get back up on the metal stand,

120
00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:46,480
Speaker 2: more opportunity for this machine to keep going for the

121
00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:49,520
Speaker 2: stars because you see this and it's a larger thread

122
00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:52,760
Speaker 2: throughout the show is mean star power wins. Look at

123
00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:56,440
Speaker 2: the ratings for the Olympics led by the women in

124
00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:59,440
Speaker 2: this time. We're all talking about legends and legacies and

125
00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:03,279
Speaker 2: history and all of those things, and time after time

126
00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:07,000
Speaker 2: at least for this Olympic run. We're talking about Simone Biles,

127
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:11,120
Speaker 2: We're talking about Katie Ldecki, We're talking about Hikari Richardson

128
00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:13,080
Speaker 2: and what she was going to do right, and then

129
00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:17,040
Speaker 2: Taylor Swift even did a commercial that she voiced on

130
00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:20,720
Speaker 2: behalf of that trio in terms of legacy and showing

131
00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:24,560
Speaker 2: who you are and all those things. So certainly, whenever

132
00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:28,320
Speaker 2: you can push this out and I haven't done the

133
00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:32,480
Speaker 2: white paper study on it, but I think I agree

134
00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:36,840
Speaker 2: in principle, then it just becomes logistically pulling it all

135
00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:40,040
Speaker 2: off individual sport by individual sport.

136
00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:43,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, and again, like you brought up the money, I know,

137
00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:46,400
Speaker 3: the money or the planning that goes to it, and

138
00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:49,040
Speaker 3: like I said, with our technology, I think we can

139
00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:52,360
Speaker 3: do it. But again I understand, you know, part of

140
00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:55,679
Speaker 3: the juice is, wow, they took four years of training

141
00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:58,040
Speaker 3: for it. But it's like for the track as the

142
00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:00,520
Speaker 3: main sport, they go to the World Games, they crown

143
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:04,800
Speaker 3: a world champ, you know, when it's not an Olympic year,

144
00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:08,160
Speaker 3: and why not give them more to compete for? Why

145
00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:10,640
Speaker 3: not raise the dollars? You know, we see the NBA

146
00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:14,680
Speaker 3: adding in the n season tournament. We see the NFL

147
00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:17,239
Speaker 3: what knock Then the NFL added a game and knocked

148
00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:18,640
Speaker 3: off a preseason game out We're.

149
00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:21,280
Speaker 2: At seventeen and eventually eighteen is coming.

150
00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:24,280
Speaker 3: It's so so when it comes out of money, when

151
00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:26,640
Speaker 3: it comes out of rights, when it comes down to

152
00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:28,920
Speaker 3: the visuals, you know, get to it, and I know

153
00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:31,160
Speaker 3: everyone's got to agree to it, or there was I'm

154
00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:34,720
Speaker 3: sure with the Olympics, there was a some type of

155
00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:38,240
Speaker 3: a ritual or the origin of the games that were

156
00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:41,120
Speaker 3: behind it. But at the end of the day, people

157
00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:43,320
Speaker 3: are getting what they want, you know, and why are

158
00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:45,480
Speaker 3: we sticking to certain values that may not go And

159
00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:48,319
Speaker 3: I'm sure there's Olympic purists that are probably yelling at

160
00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:50,080
Speaker 3: me and want to bark bite my head off. But

161
00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:53,160
Speaker 3: I think just every two years would be something special.

162
00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:55,840
Speaker 3: And I think the frustration is for some of these

163
00:08:55,880 --> 00:09:00,520
Speaker 3: athletes that they're not just athletes, are pros that playing

164
00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:03,480
Speaker 3: the Olympics, right with some of the NBA guys, they

165
00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:07,760
Speaker 3: are just olympe hands two years of competing, they would

166
00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:10,080
Speaker 3: be able to hold their salary or like we talked about,

167
00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:13,679
Speaker 3: someone who takes that second place or or bronze when

168
00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:17,520
Speaker 3: they were supposed to go gold and they have one event. See,

169
00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:20,560
Speaker 3: everybody doesn't get the you know, and every event's not

170
00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:23,439
Speaker 3: a cook equal you know, Michael Phelps. Would Phelps walk

171
00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:25,640
Speaker 3: away with like eight gold medal or something crazy? Like

172
00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:29,240
Speaker 3: other sports, you got one event, one shot, that's like

173
00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:32,320
Speaker 3: that's it or you go home. So you know, if

174
00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:35,640
Speaker 3: you end up, you know, losing, Hey, USA basketball, they

175
00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:40,160
Speaker 3: get bronze or they get silver, it is an absolute disappointment.

176
00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:42,079
Speaker 3: And they got one shot at it. They don't have

177
00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:45,199
Speaker 3: eight different chances to go and get a gold medal.

178
00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:48,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, I want to get back into the second, second place,

179
00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:51,839
Speaker 2: third place kind of thing. From a little different perspective.

180
00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:55,240
Speaker 2: You brought up the NBA and NFL as to what

181
00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:59,120
Speaker 2: they're changing. Remember money moves the world, right and what

182
00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:02,680
Speaker 2: we talk about the new NBA deal eleven years seventy

183
00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:06,839
Speaker 2: six billion dollars. Live sports is still the winner and

184
00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:09,520
Speaker 2: all programming. And I think maybe the ratings of this

185
00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:12,640
Speaker 2: and it's a unique situation again owing to the fact

186
00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:16,640
Speaker 2: that you have some of these women, female athletes that

187
00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:20,480
Speaker 2: are going for history, legacy all of that. You know,

188
00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:23,200
Speaker 2: we like winners and in this case, they have you know,

189
00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:27,640
Speaker 2: for us ratings purposes, you know, whenever we're heavily favored

190
00:10:27,920 --> 00:10:30,440
Speaker 2: to win something, guess what we show up? Isn't that

191
00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:33,880
Speaker 2: the running joke with laker Land and everything else, Chris Purfett,

192
00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:36,520
Speaker 2: you wanted to chime in on the topic.

193
00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:38,840
Speaker 5: Here, Yeah, just on how close this can all be

194
00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:42,199
Speaker 5: to your points here, I was just watching the the

195
00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:45,120
Speaker 5: the men's archery for the gold medal match. We had

196
00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:47,720
Speaker 5: Brady Ellison the American in their central casting.

197
00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:50,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, and look like a mountain man straight out of

198
00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:51,760
Speaker 2: one of those survival videos.

199
00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:54,240
Speaker 5: So him and his South Korean competitor went to a

200
00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:58,280
Speaker 5: sudden death one shot closest to the center what's officially

201
00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:02,120
Speaker 5: label to shoot off, and he takes home silver by

202
00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:05,040
Speaker 5: a because he was just away. So this was the

203
00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:08,280
Speaker 5: final one. He was sixty one point two millimeters from

204
00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:11,760
Speaker 5: the center of the target, his opponent fifty five point eight,

205
00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:14,959
Speaker 5: So he lost by just a little bit over five

206
00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:20,559
Speaker 5: millimeters less than point two inches. That's that's how close

207
00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:24,319
Speaker 5: you can be in a lot of these matches, as

208
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:26,840
Speaker 5: the Americans, where it's like you're that close to gold,

209
00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:29,320
Speaker 5: you're that close to gold. I don't even I don't

210
00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:31,680
Speaker 5: even think anyone in the track and field yesterday who

211
00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:36,240
Speaker 5: ended up finishing second to Feenke Bowl or to Alfred's

212
00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:39,600
Speaker 5: from Saint Lucian's can claim that they were only five

213
00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:40,520
Speaker 5: millimeters away.

214
00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:42,640
Speaker 2: But that's just it right. We're talking about margin of

215
00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:45,640
Speaker 2: victory because that's one of the other points I think

216
00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:49,040
Speaker 2: on the larger scale to make about this right, talking

217
00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:53,319
Speaker 2: about expectations, but also down in distance to use a

218
00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:56,840
Speaker 2: little football analogy. We'll continue with this one because it

219
00:11:56,920 --> 00:11:59,640
Speaker 2: is a lifetime of training at the Ryan Hollins at

220
00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:02,480
Speaker 2: Chris per Fet at Swollen Dome. If you want to

221
00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:06,240
Speaker 2: jump in with us on this conversation, you know, being

222
00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:11,319
Speaker 2: finishing second place with everything that you do, even just

223
00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:14,800
Speaker 2: meddling in general. For me, you got to the metal stand.

224
00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:17,200
Speaker 2: I've got a website that I'm building talking about the

225
00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:20,520
Speaker 2: arguments that we have some of these inane, hot take

226
00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:25,079
Speaker 2: nonsense things in sports, pop culture and ranking everything. That's

227
00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:26,800
Speaker 2: what we're gonna do. We're gonna rank stuff, Ryan, but

228
00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:29,400
Speaker 2: the idea being that if you hit the metal stand,

229
00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:33,440
Speaker 2: then you've accomplished something pretty great. But in some cases

230
00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:36,280
Speaker 2: you wring your hands like our friend here, mister Ellison,

231
00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:40,560
Speaker 2: in point five millimeters. We'll talk about that as we

232
00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:43,920
Speaker 2: continue second place because there was also you know, a DQ.

233
00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:48,400
Speaker 2: We talk about margin of victory in some of these events.

234
00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:51,040
Speaker 2: All of that to keep going as we just get

285
00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:41,280
Speaker 2: a censor come on this morning. I'm going to see

286
00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:43,680
Speaker 2: if tirerac can help me with that. Well, you know

287
00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:47,200
Speaker 2: you're driving and not Hey, you've hit a pothole or something,

288
00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:49,960
Speaker 2: and you know your tire's going flat just all of

289
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:52,920
Speaker 2: a sudden, Hey, check your tire system. So you pull

290
00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:54,920
Speaker 2: off the freeway. I don't know if you've driven on

291
00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:58,360
Speaker 2: the four h five or or freeway wherever you are

292
00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:03,960
Speaker 2: listening globally the fact on the freeways. It's basically some

293
00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:06,280
Speaker 2: rogues that have just gotten out of the bar scene.

294
00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:09,840
Speaker 2: You got some truckers and maybe a couple of mutants

295
00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:11,240
Speaker 2: like me that are on their way to work. But

296
00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:13,480
Speaker 2: it's no kind of a waistline. I don't want to

297
00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:16,040
Speaker 2: pull off the freeway. We're pulled to the side of

298
00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:18,320
Speaker 2: the freeway and wishing hope as I checked to make

299
00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:20,920
Speaker 2: sure my tires okay, but yeah, all of a sudden

300
00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:23,960
Speaker 2: the readings were here. Your tire pressure on these three

301
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:26,560
Speaker 2: is just fine. Here it's a giant question mark. Okay,

302
00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:29,680
Speaker 2: it was a slash, but we'll have to figure that out.

303
00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:33,160
Speaker 2: So there there's my excitement for the morning. And I

304
00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:35,480
Speaker 2: maybe given Tire Rack a call for a brand new

305
00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:38,720
Speaker 2: tire pretty soon here. So there you go, Ryan Hollins,

306
00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:41,800
Speaker 2: That's that's how a Sunday morning starts. On the way

307
00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:45,040
Speaker 2: to do sports talk radio here at Fox Sports Radio,

308
00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:48,040
Speaker 2: listening to Andy and Bucky get after it a little bit.

309
00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:50,680
Speaker 2: And you know, one of the things we were talking

310
00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:53,520
Speaker 2: about a couple a couple of minutes ago, and Chris

311
00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:56,000
Speaker 2: Purfett gave us a specificity because we saw the end

312
00:16:56,120 --> 00:17:00,640
Speaker 2: of the archery matchup and the margin of victor being

313
00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:05,159
Speaker 2: about five millimeters. Now, everybody pull out a ruler and

314
00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:08,480
Speaker 2: look at what five millimeters is and you shake your head. Right,

315
00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:12,280
Speaker 2: years of training in this case, you know, right, years

316
00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:14,639
Speaker 2: of training And this is where I wanted to go

317
00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:16,920
Speaker 2: with because you you threw this up and we went

318
00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:21,080
Speaker 2: into the every two years, perhaps in between all the

319
00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:24,760
Speaker 2: world championships, the you got the Winter Olympics, Olympics to

320
00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:27,280
Speaker 2: think about, uh, in each sport and you know, the

321
00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:30,280
Speaker 2: different competitions and also trying to make sure you know

322
00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:32,679
Speaker 2: that that those calendars all work up and sync up.

323
00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:35,400
Speaker 2: But in the end, again, if the money is right,

324
00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:39,240
Speaker 2: the audience will show up. But the margin of victory

325
00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:44,240
Speaker 2: is something that watching a number of these events, I

326
00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:51,120
Speaker 2: feel so terrible for these participants, right when when you've

327
00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:54,040
Speaker 2: got this margin. You talked about expectations before, Ryan, and

328
00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:57,680
Speaker 2: certainly you know, we we get betting odds on everything anymore,

329
00:17:57,800 --> 00:18:02,000
Speaker 2: and we we have things built up, and it's like anything,

330
00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:05,200
Speaker 2: depending on your point of view perspective, right, you're always

331
00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:11,080
Speaker 2: gonna thank your your favorite male or female athletes gonna win. Yeah,

332
00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:13,960
Speaker 2: you might back back down and say, realistically, hey, we're

333
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:16,680
Speaker 2: just hoping to meddle or have an opportunity. We've seen

334
00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:21,800
Speaker 2: some of the great responses from athletes winning their first

335
00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:26,560
Speaker 2: goals for their nation, right in certain events or or overall,

336
00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:30,520
Speaker 2: to where it's it's a monster deal for for a nation.

337
00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:33,919
Speaker 2: In the US, we're doing the metal count. We're just

338
00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:36,919
Speaker 2: waiting for the odometer to flip over, uh, to go

339
00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:40,280
Speaker 2: back to the car analogy. But that margin of victory

340
00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:46,959
Speaker 2: in some of these events has been very narrow, like

341
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:49,760
Speaker 2: our like our archer. You've seen it in the pool

342
00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:52,439
Speaker 2: a couple of times. Right, it's a matter of maybe

343
00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:57,399
Speaker 2: the length of the middle finger, just to be funny

344
00:18:57,440 --> 00:19:01,000
Speaker 2: with it. But also you have the other side of it,

345
00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:03,919
Speaker 2: like Katie Leddeki the fifteen hundred meter where they had

346
00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:05,800
Speaker 2: to do the full how about how far out can

347
00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:08,199
Speaker 2: we zoom so we can get a shot of the

348
00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:11,639
Speaker 2: second place person trying to chase her down. Right, So

349
00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:14,159
Speaker 2: the dominance to where it's like, all right, I'm the

350
00:19:14,200 --> 00:19:17,199
Speaker 2: best of everybody else, and I acknowledge that Ladeki is

351
00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:22,600
Speaker 2: special and a global leader and a legend. So maybe

352
00:19:22,680 --> 00:19:26,080
Speaker 2: finishing second there you don't feel so bad, right because

353
00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:30,320
Speaker 2: you're you're looking at her as the outlier to the events, right,

354
00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:33,119
Speaker 2: Michael Phelps, you brought up his medal count earlier, you know,

355
00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:35,040
Speaker 2: those kind of things. But then you have some of

356
00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:38,120
Speaker 2: these events like where you're in a virtual dead heat.

357
00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:41,439
Speaker 2: You know, I'm as good as and then maybe on

358
00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:46,320
Speaker 2: that particular Saturday, that Sunday, that heat, that moment something

359
00:19:46,359 --> 00:19:50,600
Speaker 2: doesn't click and suddenly you're further down the metal stand

360
00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:53,080
Speaker 2: or you don't meddle at all, And trying to think

361
00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:56,879
Speaker 2: of that psychologically. You know, all that you've prepared for,

362
00:19:57,000 --> 00:20:00,000
Speaker 2: all those hours again, all of that stuff that you've skinned,

363
00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:05,160
Speaker 2: that quote unquote regular people do for that training opportunity,

364
00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:09,080
Speaker 2: and you can never take away the battle and competing

365
00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:14,119
Speaker 2: for your nation. But trying to reconcile that, you know,

366
00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:18,359
Speaker 2: because in four years, as you said, you're your pride

367
00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:21,040
Speaker 2: may be gone, but also the fact there might just

368
00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:23,960
Speaker 2: be someone on the come that just surpasses you.

369
00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:32,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, it, it definitely can happen that way. And

370
00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:37,280
Speaker 3: again I think it's it's tough watching and obviously, like

371
00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:39,040
Speaker 3: you know, track and field is supreme when it comes

372
00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:41,879
Speaker 3: to the Olympics because it's just a who who's the

373
00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:46,560
Speaker 3: fastest in this? In this? Uh, you know range, who

374
00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:49,159
Speaker 3: can jump the furthest who can jump to the highest

375
00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:52,879
Speaker 3: it is? It is when when I came I did field.

376
00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:55,359
Speaker 3: I did the jumps in college, I did the jumps

377
00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:57,640
Speaker 3: in high school, and I loved it because like, hey,

378
00:20:57,640 --> 00:20:59,359
Speaker 3: if I was better that day, I was better. I

379
00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:02,880
Speaker 3: didn't need any teammates. It was just it was black

380
00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:06,119
Speaker 3: and white. There were no real referees needed, just making

381
00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:08,399
Speaker 3: sure that I don't foul and my jumps were legal.

382
00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:11,879
Speaker 3: But the winner is the winner at the end of

383
00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:14,320
Speaker 3: the day. But again, if you're looking at the Olympics

384
00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:16,920
Speaker 3: as a whole, it's so subjective the way some of those

385
00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:19,680
Speaker 3: sports come in and you know, questioning things and I'm

386
00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:22,960
Speaker 3: sure there's obviously a rhyme or reason, and the world

387
00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:28,600
Speaker 3: is much bigger than obviously the USA. But again, if

388
00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:30,960
Speaker 3: I'm a swimmer, and let's say I'm Phelps, right not qualify,

389
00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:34,720
Speaker 3: get nine different chances of the medal or Shaikhari Richardson

390
00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:36,720
Speaker 3: she ends up coming in second, but you know it,

391
00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:38,719
Speaker 3: she's likely going to get a gold medal on the relay,

392
00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:42,080
Speaker 3: you know. But for some of those other sports, you're

393
00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:45,760
Speaker 3: gonna have one shot to be there, or even more

394
00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:48,440
Speaker 3: of an importance. Like you said, you know, missing gold

395
00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:50,960
Speaker 3: by literally a millimeter, and I think somebody was in

396
00:21:51,440 --> 00:21:54,080
Speaker 3: like the ten thousand meters or something like that, and

397
00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:56,119
Speaker 3: the guy comes roaring in at the end and it

398
00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:58,960
Speaker 3: looks like he beat him very decisively. You go back

399
00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:02,520
Speaker 3: and you know, heat beat him by a millisecond. It

400
00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:05,280
Speaker 3: was a point one of his second you know, Well, it's.

401
00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:07,000
Speaker 2: Funny what the eyes will do for you though, right,

402
00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:09,879
Speaker 2: because you see maybe someone coming down the stretch. We

403
00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:14,119
Speaker 2: do this like my family. We've we've long been betting

404
00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:18,280
Speaker 2: on and watching horse racing. So your perception changes, right

405
00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:23,119
Speaker 2: based on either your desired outcome or you know what,

406
00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:24,880
Speaker 2: you trick yourself and see it. No, that guy's coming

407
00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:26,960
Speaker 2: hard on the outside. It's like, no, actually you're still

408
00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:30,320
Speaker 2: beaten by a full head. But based on where you

409
00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:33,560
Speaker 2: are standing towards the finish line and whatever, your perspective

410
00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:36,560
Speaker 2: may alter it. Same thing here, you know, when we're

411
00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:40,879
Speaker 2: talking about the margins of victory, and I think you

412
00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:45,080
Speaker 2: know you bring up the point of being on the

413
00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:48,040
Speaker 2: track right and being able to run, there's a definitive winner,

414
00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:52,399
Speaker 2: right basketball, we'll get into how about you love or

415
00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:56,280
Speaker 2: hate referees in a minute, but you're done. It's not

416
00:22:57,400 --> 00:23:00,560
Speaker 2: a judgment like I can appreciate everything that gymnists do,

417
00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:03,560
Speaker 2: but I don't understand the scoring. And you can explain

418
00:23:03,600 --> 00:23:05,679
Speaker 2: it to me like I'm a five year old forty times,

419
00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:08,439
Speaker 2: and at my age, I think I've had it explain

420
00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:12,959
Speaker 2: to me by many people as best they can. Like

421
00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:17,960
Speaker 2: my cousin, her daughters were both very competitive. One was

422
00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:21,080
Speaker 2: still competing into college, and we talk about it and

423
00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:23,000
Speaker 2: she goes, you know, I've been to a lot of

424
00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:26,320
Speaker 2: these meets. I go, and I'm the cheering mom. But

425
00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:29,040
Speaker 2: what's the difference in that point one? I'm still trying

426
00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:32,160
Speaker 2: to figure it out all these years years later. And again,

427
00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:34,080
Speaker 2: it doesn't mean you don't have an appreciation for the

428
00:23:34,119 --> 00:23:37,280
Speaker 2: athleticism and everything that's on display. Watching what some own

429
00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:41,040
Speaker 2: biles and the team have done on the gymnastics side,

430
00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:44,560
Speaker 2: I marvel at it, but there's not a all right,

431
00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:49,400
Speaker 2: you won definitively because you just beat everybody in a pool,

432
00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:52,960
Speaker 2: on a track, on a basketball court, a soccer pitch,

433
00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:55,719
Speaker 2: keep on going on down the line, whether it's you know,

434
00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:59,919
Speaker 2: the zero point five millimeters of an archery shoot off,

435
00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:04,000
Speaker 2: you know that kind of thing. So it's the beauty

436
00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:08,160
Speaker 2: in every sport and the the agony of defeat, because

437
00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:10,120
Speaker 2: that's the other thing, right, you know, you get into

438
00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:15,639
Speaker 2: some of those those events, Ryan, and it's the all

439
00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:19,159
Speaker 2: right Judges, and we start looking sideways, right, all the

440
00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:24,000
Speaker 2: jokes for years on every comedy show that we could

441
00:24:24,520 --> 00:24:27,600
Speaker 2: about all right in the Eastern Bloc, judge is now

442
00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:32,439
Speaker 2: staring down sternly at what's going on on the on

443
00:24:32,560 --> 00:24:35,800
Speaker 2: the mat, on the pommel horse, whatever else. So yeah,

444
00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:39,280
Speaker 2: it's it's but it's three weeks of for the most

445
00:24:39,320 --> 00:24:43,040
Speaker 2: part positivity. Obviously, there's some controversy, and there's some some

446
00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:47,560
Speaker 2: events and and big things that that have transpired, Uh,

447
00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:50,280
Speaker 2: some of which are beyond the realm of of of

448
00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:55,000
Speaker 2: a simple sports talk show because larger political and and

449
00:24:56,880 --> 00:24:59,720
Speaker 2: I I don't even know what to to qualify it as.

450
00:24:59,800 --> 00:25:03,800
Speaker 2: But you know, the discussion points of fair play and

451
00:25:03,840 --> 00:25:06,920
Speaker 2: everything else. But you know, when I'm talking about the

452
00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:12,160
Speaker 2: the boxing story, of course, where misinformation and everything because

453
00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:14,880
Speaker 2: nobody ever reads the retraction. So that's always the hard

454
00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:18,199
Speaker 2: part with a lot of this stuff, Ryan, is you know,

455
00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:21,000
Speaker 2: a story finds a life of its own, and then

456
00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:23,040
Speaker 2: you try to go back and do the explanation, Well,

457
00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:26,600
Speaker 2: people have made people make their minds up, right, doesn't

458
00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:31,280
Speaker 2: mean that they'll ever come around, no matter how much

459
00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:33,800
Speaker 2: evidence is putting in their face. And we see that

460
00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:37,840
Speaker 2: and in every walk of life, business, politics, et cetera.

461
00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:42,040
Speaker 2: No matter what, we never see the retraction. We only

462
00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:46,840
Speaker 2: see what the initial feur is. Now we're watching whitewater

463
00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:50,159
Speaker 2: rapids going down, like I'm at the theme park. That

464
00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:54,080
Speaker 2: was kind of cool again, the kayak cross. I mean,

465
00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:57,440
Speaker 2: you're talking upper body strength and training right there as

466
00:25:57,480 --> 00:26:00,760
Speaker 2: you go through some skeet shooting. I just love the

467
00:26:01,280 --> 00:26:03,720
Speaker 2: breadth of events. And I know we put them on

468
00:26:03,760 --> 00:26:07,679
Speaker 2: the shelf as a collective for four years in between

469
00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:12,520
Speaker 2: these games, Ryan, but I'm intrigued, like I always want

470
00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:15,119
Speaker 2: to watch and hopefully, you know, I can get some

471
00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:19,000
Speaker 2: insights in some of the personal stories of what got

472
00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:23,200
Speaker 2: them involved in the sports is always the most exciting

473
00:26:23,280 --> 00:26:25,640
Speaker 2: part of this for some of these, right, what got

474
00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:28,280
Speaker 2: you into skeet shooting? I don't know, you know, I

475
00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:32,480
Speaker 2: have no idea. I grew up playing basketball or playing football,

476
00:26:33,080 --> 00:26:35,960
Speaker 2: or go out to the sandlot and play baseball. Maybe

477
00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:39,000
Speaker 2: you out on a soccer pitch. But then some of

478
00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:41,680
Speaker 2: these sports, like, all right, give me the entry path

479
00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:45,480
Speaker 2: towards skeet shooting were you're just a hunter and a

480
00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:48,720
Speaker 2: hunting family and it naturally extended from there. I mean,

481
00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:51,399
Speaker 2: that's the part of the Olympics that I find most fascinating.

482
00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:54,119
Speaker 3: Okay, let me throw this out to you. Hit me,

483
00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:58,439
Speaker 3: how do you feel? And this happens depending on what

484
00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:01,719
Speaker 3: you know with some of the Olympic athletes where you know,

485
00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:04,680
Speaker 3: let's say in their respective sport they were a sprinter

486
00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:09,520
Speaker 3: or something, and then they go to it literally a

487
00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:13,520
Speaker 3: whole nother sport and compete, you know, like deep into

488
00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:16,679
Speaker 3: their forties, you know. So I know, like some of those,

489
00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:19,120
Speaker 3: some of like the like the Winter Olympics, you'll have

490
00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:23,639
Speaker 3: people that you know, maybe were you know, you know,

491
00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:27,560
Speaker 3: ice skaters or something like that. They used to be bicyclists,

492
00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:30,560
Speaker 3: you know, like like and then they go metal. They go, yeah,

493
00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:32,399
Speaker 3: this person used to do this, this, this, and I go,

494
00:27:33,440 --> 00:27:35,560
Speaker 3: it's something about me just goes there's something wrong with that,

495
00:27:35,760 --> 00:27:40,320
Speaker 3: you know, because a gold medal is so exclusive, and

496
00:27:40,359 --> 00:27:45,760
Speaker 3: I feel like so that exclusivity is leaving when you

497
00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:49,320
Speaker 3: have the ability to just switch events and go get

498
00:27:49,320 --> 00:27:51,960
Speaker 3: a gold medal and I can't like, okay and shout

499
00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:54,800
Speaker 3: out my guy Chase, Buttinger, you know, he goes the

500
00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:56,960
Speaker 3: NBA all of a sudden, but he keep in mind

501
00:27:57,000 --> 00:27:59,239
Speaker 3: they always said would Chase. He was a much uh,

502
00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:03,280
Speaker 3: you know, a much better volleyball player than basketball player.

503
00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:05,560
Speaker 3: Just love basketball, you know. And obviously there's a lot

504
00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:09,919
Speaker 3: of money and involved. But when you can go and

505
00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:11,520
Speaker 3: you can age and you can come back and win

506
00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:14,280
Speaker 3: another sport, not that it doesn't take dedication and time,

507
00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:17,159
Speaker 3: and hey, a lot of these guys don't have the

508
00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:21,720
Speaker 3: ability to sit back and train, you know, train their

509
00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:23,440
Speaker 3: sport well.

510
00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:26,760
Speaker 2: But if you have the opportunity, right and whatever means

511
00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:28,800
Speaker 2: that is, and this is where you can get into

512
00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:35,200
Speaker 2: larger discussions of socio economics and politics and everything else, right,

513
00:28:36,119 --> 00:28:41,160
Speaker 2: ground swell of support and where money gets put into

514
00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:46,080
Speaker 2: whatever soccer, basketball, et cetera. In terms of youth athletics

515
00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:48,960
Speaker 2: all the way through, I think, if you can train

516
00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:53,200
Speaker 2: and you're good enough to go and win trials and

517
00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:57,840
Speaker 2: compete in a second sport, good on you. Right again,

518
00:28:57,920 --> 00:29:01,080
Speaker 2: it's write the book. I'll I'll read it because I

519
00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:04,360
Speaker 2: want to know what drives you and what the focus is.

520
00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:06,480
Speaker 2: But if you're good enough as you get a little

521
00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:08,440
Speaker 2: bit older. I mean, we're watching Lebron James now it's

522
00:29:08,440 --> 00:29:11,760
Speaker 2: the same sport, but he's forty years old or going

523
00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:15,200
Speaker 2: to be forty here in a short short time that

524
00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:17,680
Speaker 2: you just keep going. And some would argue, well, you

525
00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:20,240
Speaker 2: should let the younger guys have it. You got in

526
00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:22,680
Speaker 2: your medal. It's like, no, he's still one of the

527
00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:24,800
Speaker 2: best players in the world. Go do it. And if

528
00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:28,680
Speaker 2: you know, Budinger or whoever else, second sport, third sport,

529
00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:32,440
Speaker 2: if you're the best for your nation, or there's look,

530
00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:34,680
Speaker 2: there's always other things at play. If your name and

531
00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:37,680
Speaker 2: attachment to it is going to bring sponsors and money

532
00:29:37,720 --> 00:29:41,160
Speaker 2: to help the other athletes get what they need to

533
00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:45,000
Speaker 2: participate and train, there's some of that that goes on

534
00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:47,640
Speaker 2: with a lot of these athletes as well. So I

535
00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:51,479
Speaker 2: can't fault it. And certainly, you know, as my body

536
00:29:51,800 --> 00:30:01,480
Speaker 2: withers with age and well sloth that my being a

537
00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:08,360
Speaker 2: you know, my slothlike movements and being a more a

538
00:30:08,400 --> 00:30:12,120
Speaker 2: couch potato and armchair and analysts than anything else. I'm

539
00:30:12,120 --> 00:30:14,360
Speaker 2: gonna call it what it is. Like I can appreciate

540
00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:18,719
Speaker 2: when folks are still that driven. I wish I was,

541
00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:22,440
Speaker 2: and in that regard right that I was still trying

542
00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:24,520
Speaker 2: to hoop it up three on three, I would probably

543
00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:27,480
Speaker 2: require at least one shoulder surgery, and I'm putting that

544
00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:28,480
Speaker 2: off as long as I can.

545
00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:33,240
Speaker 3: Well, the thing is, you know, and I don't know

546
00:30:33,280 --> 00:30:37,960
Speaker 3: how the voting goes or the committee sees things. When

547
00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:40,680
Speaker 3: you have some of these sports that they take off

548
00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:44,760
Speaker 3: and add like there's no no baseball anymore, right, oh softball?

549
00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:49,040
Speaker 3: You know, whatever the reasoning is within that, you know

550
00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:53,160
Speaker 3: what qualifies the sport. And when I look at it,

551
00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:57,160
Speaker 3: it's like, hey, how competitive are they playing? Is this

552
00:30:57,360 --> 00:31:00,320
Speaker 3: like you know, if this is a college like are

553
00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:03,920
Speaker 3: they just doing this as inner murals? Or are are

554
00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:07,440
Speaker 3: people paying money and training their whole lives to be

555
00:31:07,480 --> 00:31:09,320
Speaker 3: a part of it? Or it's like, well I'll switch

556
00:31:09,320 --> 00:31:12,120
Speaker 3: over and go get a gold medal. You know, how

557
00:31:12,160 --> 00:31:18,000
Speaker 3: competitive is the field? And that's that's to me the fairness.

558
00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:20,080
Speaker 3: So obviously, if you have the skill on into your

559
00:31:20,120 --> 00:31:23,560
Speaker 3: forties and it's exclusive and you are you know, of

560
00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:27,480
Speaker 3: the one percent, you know, I get it. But if

561
00:31:27,520 --> 00:31:32,280
Speaker 3: there's not enough people competing in that sport, I question

562
00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:36,920
Speaker 3: the legitimacy of the you know of the metal. You know,

563
00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:39,920
Speaker 3: there's certain feels like you're like they're just giving away

564
00:31:39,920 --> 00:31:42,520
Speaker 3: a gold medal, and I don't think that's fair to

565
00:31:42,640 --> 00:31:46,200
Speaker 3: some of those athletes that are missing out by a

566
00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:48,320
Speaker 3: millisecond in their sport.

567
00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:51,880
Speaker 2: Well they can get a participation trophy for you don't

568
00:31:51,920 --> 00:31:54,440
Speaker 2: believe that, Well, that's kind of where you let it you.

569
00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:57,320
Speaker 2: I feel bad that they lost. I mean, it's a millimeter, right,

570
00:31:57,360 --> 00:32:00,320
Speaker 2: and that's the that's the thing. You're in a competing

571
00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:04,680
Speaker 2: in a sport where the precision of a millimeter it matters.

572
00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:10,400
Speaker 2: You know what else matters, the absolute dynamic verbal capacity.

573
00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:15,000
Speaker 2: That is Isaac lowen Kron, your nemesis at the Dame

574
00:32:15,800 --> 00:32:17,520
Speaker 2: at the news desk at Isaac.

575
00:32:17,240 --> 00:32:20,720
Speaker 8: Lowenkron, Morning, Mike and Ryan and I actually have a

576
00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:22,400
Speaker 8: quick story along.

577
00:32:22,080 --> 00:32:23,400
Speaker 2: These lines for you guys.

578
00:32:23,640 --> 00:32:27,160
Speaker 8: Once in the Olympics, the United States had two of

579
00:32:27,160 --> 00:32:30,520
Speaker 8: the favorites in the men's one hundred meters, So they

580
00:32:30,520 --> 00:32:35,280
Speaker 8: had their quarterfinal heat and they looked at the schedule

581
00:32:35,720 --> 00:32:40,000
Speaker 8: and they thought it said six point fifteen, but the

582
00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:45,640
Speaker 8: schedule actually said sixteen fifteen, meaning at twenty four hour o'

583
00:32:45,640 --> 00:32:48,360
Speaker 8: clock was actually four to fifteen in the afternoon. So

584
00:32:48,400 --> 00:32:52,080
Speaker 8: they're at the Olympic village chilling out watching TV. They

585
00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:55,920
Speaker 8: see the heats in the quarterfinals that they're supposed to

586
00:32:56,000 --> 00:32:59,360
Speaker 8: be in on the TV. They raced to the stadium,

587
00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:02,920
Speaker 8: but they don't make it in time. And because of

588
00:33:03,040 --> 00:33:06,200
Speaker 8: that a misreading of the schedule. One year, two of

589
00:33:06,240 --> 00:33:10,680
Speaker 8: the favorites in the one hundred meters failed to qualify

590
00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:12,320
Speaker 8: for the semi finals.

591
00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:12,840
Speaker 2: So can you.

592
00:33:12,840 --> 00:33:17,600
Speaker 8: Imagine losing your dream on a misread of a schedule.

593
00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:19,840
Speaker 2: And everybody associated with that part of the program should

594
00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:22,680
Speaker 2: have lost their jobs. Yes, it's kind of what happened

595
00:33:23,800 --> 00:33:27,680
Speaker 2: three hours before the event. You should be at your venue,

596
00:33:27,720 --> 00:33:29,880
Speaker 2: right betching and big controversy.

597
00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:33,480
Speaker 8: Back in the day, Howard Kosel was beside himself. We've

598
00:33:33,480 --> 00:33:35,800
Speaker 8: got the gold medal match going on right now.

599
00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:39,920
Speaker 2: Thank you, Howard. He still hasn't gotten over it.

600
00:33:40,640 --> 00:33:43,400
Speaker 8: Gold medal match going on right now. In men's tennis

601
00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:46,880
Speaker 8: between Novak Djokovic and Carlos all Karaz, the first set

602
00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:49,800
Speaker 8: has gone to a tie break. In the tie break,

603
00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:52,520
Speaker 8: they are tied at three points a piece. And remember

604
00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:55,440
Speaker 8: it's a best of three sets in the Olympics. In

605
00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:59,120
Speaker 8: the final round, of the men's golf competition with seven

606
00:33:59,160 --> 00:34:02,920
Speaker 8: holes to go. John Rahm, at nineteen under par overall,

607
00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:07,320
Speaker 8: has a two shot lead over Tommy Fleetwood and Hideki Montsuyama.

608
00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:11,360
Speaker 8: Xander Schoffley of the United States three shots back. Scottie

609
00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:14,840
Speaker 8: Scheffler is four shots back. The US women's volleyball teams

610
00:34:15,120 --> 00:34:18,439
Speaker 8: wept France today three sets to none to finish group

611
00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:21,600
Speaker 8: play two and one in advance to the quarterfinals. Coming

612
00:34:21,680 --> 00:34:24,600
Speaker 8: up at eleven to fifteen Eastern, the US women's basketball

644
00:35:58,000 --> 00:36:02,280

647
00:36:10,360 --> 00:36:13,759
Speaker 2: Bears and the Texans got after it on Thursday night,

648
00:36:13,920 --> 00:36:18,600
Speaker 2: whether to weather ended up shortening the game Bears were leading.

649
00:36:18,600 --> 00:36:21,680
Speaker 2: I'm counting it as a win because again as a

650
00:36:21,680 --> 00:36:24,000
Speaker 2: White Sox fan, I haven't seen one of those in

651
00:36:24,040 --> 00:36:26,960
Speaker 2: a very very long time. But also the Hall of

652
00:36:27,040 --> 00:36:31,720
Speaker 2: Fame itself, Julius Peppers comes in, Devin Hester, the greatest

653
00:36:31,760 --> 00:36:35,360
Speaker 2: return man ever. And then my guy and I still

654
00:36:35,400 --> 00:36:38,200
Speaker 2: give my good friend Jason Cole who joins the show

655
00:36:38,280 --> 00:36:41,799
Speaker 2: and friend of our program, Smith and I during the

656
00:36:41,840 --> 00:36:44,160
Speaker 2: week he's one of the Hall of Fame voters. A

657
00:36:44,239 --> 00:36:47,000
Speaker 2: question that I've been asking for years, but Steve McMichael

658
00:36:48,160 --> 00:36:52,720
Speaker 2: finally got in and he can't speak at this point.

659
00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:56,759
Speaker 2: Advanced als. You saw the videos around on X if

660
00:36:56,800 --> 00:36:59,719
Speaker 2: you're watching any of the Hall of Fame stuff at

661
00:36:59,719 --> 00:37:02,000
Speaker 2: his head side unveiling the bus, a lot of his

662
00:37:02,120 --> 00:37:06,320
Speaker 2: eighty five Bears teammates, but Ryan for the levity because

663
00:37:06,360 --> 00:37:11,480
Speaker 2: he was once a very loud and outspoken gentleman. He

664
00:37:11,600 --> 00:37:14,040
Speaker 2: was a guy that was a member of the Four Horsemen. Yeah,

665
00:37:14,040 --> 00:37:16,239
Speaker 2: that's right. He went into wrestling for a while. So

666
00:37:16,280 --> 00:37:19,479
Speaker 2: you saw the tributes from from wrestling the wrestling world.

667
00:37:19,520 --> 00:37:22,920
Speaker 2: But here's one when he was probably at his peak

668
00:37:23,400 --> 00:37:27,680
Speaker 2: of celebrity, deciding to well to hijack the seventh inning stretch.

669
00:37:28,200 --> 00:37:33,759
Speaker 3: All right, Mongo's home Chicago, and don't worry, I'll have it.

670
00:37:33,840 --> 00:37:35,040
Speaker 3: I'll have some speaks with that.

671
00:37:35,120 --> 00:37:39,319
Speaker 6: Homepint umpower after the game, all.

672
00:37:39,280 --> 00:37:44,960
Speaker 3: Right, into finding this. This bit's for you, Harricay, all

673
00:37:45,120 --> 00:37:47,520
Speaker 3: right with connois So it's so hurting.

674
00:37:47,239 --> 00:37:51,799
Speaker 2: My crowd of good not one, not too not DoD

675
00:37:52,120 --> 00:37:53,880
Speaker 2: And then you get the seventh ining stretch. But he

676
00:37:53,920 --> 00:37:56,680
Speaker 2: calls out Angel Hernandez, who's been a punching bag in

677
00:37:56,719 --> 00:38:01,719
Speaker 2: the sports radio and television world forever. What was great

678
00:38:01,719 --> 00:38:05,000
Speaker 2: about it is you have the booing of the homeplate

679
00:38:05,080 --> 00:38:07,120
Speaker 2: umpire and he turns and he looks to the booth.

680
00:38:07,120 --> 00:38:11,120
Speaker 2: He eventually throws with Michael out. But one of those

681
00:38:11,280 --> 00:38:15,839
Speaker 2: agitator role kind of things. For me, it's I don't know, Ryan,

682
00:38:16,360 --> 00:38:20,080
Speaker 2: these all the fame inductions always catch me a little

683
00:38:20,080 --> 00:38:22,719
Speaker 2: bit and then I say, wow, it's already been five

684
00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:25,600
Speaker 2: or six or ten years since this guy retired, and

685
00:38:25,640 --> 00:38:28,440
Speaker 2: you start aging yourself. So there's the positivity. It's like

686
00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:31,120
Speaker 2: when all the junior juniors start flowing around in the

687
00:38:31,239 --> 00:38:34,960
Speaker 2: NBA and Major League Baseball. The first time for me

688
00:38:35,080 --> 00:38:36,719
Speaker 2: was Ken Griffy Junior. That goes all the way back

689
00:38:36,719 --> 00:38:38,759
Speaker 2: to nineteen eighty nine when I was only sixteen years old.

690
00:38:39,400 --> 00:38:42,360
Speaker 2: But starting to see the juniors come through in the

691
00:38:42,400 --> 00:38:46,120
Speaker 2: passes of time, and then you appreciate the longevity and

692
00:38:46,239 --> 00:38:49,279
Speaker 2: history of these guys in a different way. And you know,

693
00:38:49,360 --> 00:38:53,160
Speaker 2: Hall of Fame weekends always, you know, hit that soft

694
00:38:53,200 --> 00:38:55,959
Speaker 2: spot in what's otherwise a cold media heart.

695
00:38:58,360 --> 00:39:02,160
Speaker 3: Yeah no, man, I I get it. And you know

696
00:39:03,160 --> 00:39:04,840
Speaker 3: when it comes to Hall of Fame, I'm all in

697
00:39:04,920 --> 00:39:07,880
Speaker 3: and I you know, I gotta give it's a former

698
00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:11,120
Speaker 3: NBA hooper. Man. The the NFL Hall of Fame is

699
00:39:11,160 --> 00:39:13,160
Speaker 3: just light years ahead of the NBA, just in a

700
00:39:13,239 --> 00:39:16,319
Speaker 3: sense of not that it's it's better set out, but

701
00:39:17,080 --> 00:39:20,279
Speaker 3: you know, it's it's a whole lot more exclusive, you know.

702
00:39:20,440 --> 00:39:23,160
Speaker 3: But it was cool to see and you saw Michael

703
00:39:23,200 --> 00:39:27,240
Speaker 3: Jordan's and the festivities came out and supported Julius Peppers,

704
00:39:27,280 --> 00:39:29,879
Speaker 3: you know, And I guess like I'm officially getting old

705
00:39:29,920 --> 00:39:32,160
Speaker 3: because they used to be the Hall of Fame inductees.

706
00:39:32,160 --> 00:39:33,800
Speaker 3: And I'm like, I don't know any of these guys,

707
00:39:33,800 --> 00:39:37,000
Speaker 3: and I'm like, no, I remember Peppers was amazing and

708
00:39:37,120 --> 00:39:40,640
Speaker 3: Dwight Freedi and going down the line, uh with the

709
00:39:40,840 --> 00:39:43,759
Speaker 3: with those guys man. And my nephew was actually out

710
00:39:43,800 --> 00:39:46,000
Speaker 3: there with my brother in law. He got a chance

711
00:39:46,040 --> 00:39:48,120
Speaker 3: to you got a picture with Michael Jordan's funny and

712
00:39:48,960 --> 00:39:53,000
Speaker 3: he sent me the photo. I said, you framed that photo.

713
00:39:53,880 --> 00:39:57,600
Speaker 3: Mj don't take photos, dude, you you got away good.

714
00:39:57,640 --> 00:39:59,920
Speaker 3: He don't take photos.

715
00:39:59,280 --> 00:40:01,319
Speaker 2: So we must have been in an earlier good mood.

716
00:40:01,400 --> 00:40:04,359
Speaker 3: Yeah, whoever he was with, I forget the photo. I'd

717
00:40:04,440 --> 00:40:08,160
Speaker 3: need this story. Somebody was friendly enough to kind of

718
00:40:08,160 --> 00:40:10,480
Speaker 3: get Mike to do that. He don't photo.

719
00:40:11,600 --> 00:40:13,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, well we'll see if we can get that story

746
00:41:46,840 --> 00:41:51,799
Speaker 2: about a schedule, watching and made for television events. I

747
00:41:51,800 --> 00:41:53,760
Speaker 2: think that's kind of where we're headed with the men's

748
00:41:54,160 --> 00:41:58,399
Speaker 2: men's side of the basketball equation here, Ryan Hollins, As

749
00:41:58,440 --> 00:42:03,440
Speaker 2: we get ready this for the potential of another coronation

750
00:42:03,640 --> 00:42:06,200
Speaker 2: of the US men's Olympic team. One of the things

751
00:42:06,200 --> 00:42:09,440
Speaker 2: we've talked about a lot, Brianna and Chris and I

752
00:42:09,560 --> 00:42:12,520
Speaker 2: just talking about, you know, the collection of athletes and

753
00:42:12,560 --> 00:42:15,480
Speaker 2: where do they rank all time against the Dream Team

754
00:42:15,560 --> 00:42:19,640
Speaker 2: and all these different iterations of Team USA. We'll get deeper.

755
00:42:19,840 --> 00:42:22,160
Speaker 2: Draymond Green came out with some thoughts on the whole,

756
00:42:22,239 --> 00:42:27,359
Speaker 2: Jason Tatum, Joel embiid flap of DNPS. We'll get into

757
00:42:27,360 --> 00:42:29,520
Speaker 2: that in about twenty minutes. But looking at the way

758
00:42:29,560 --> 00:42:33,799
Speaker 2: the bracket came out, and well, it's not lost on

759
00:42:33,960 --> 00:42:37,160
Speaker 2: me that Team USA is on one side of the

760
00:42:37,200 --> 00:42:40,480
Speaker 2: bracket and Canada, France, and Germany are on the other,

761
00:42:40,600 --> 00:42:43,319
Speaker 2: Ryan Hollins, which means they would not meet until they

762
00:42:43,920 --> 00:42:47,840
Speaker 2: saw each other in a gold medal game made for

763
00:42:48,000 --> 00:42:49,920
Speaker 2: TV events.

764
00:42:51,520 --> 00:42:55,799
Speaker 3: We spoke about this with last week. You know, I've

765
00:42:55,880 --> 00:43:01,359
Speaker 3: never seen or felt so much excitement from the basketball

766
00:43:01,440 --> 00:43:07,320
Speaker 3: side from a NBA perspective, because every team now has

767
00:43:08,000 --> 00:43:12,880
Speaker 3: a slew of NBA or former NBA players or guys

768
00:43:13,600 --> 00:43:16,239
Speaker 3: from our narrow minds that we can you know, we

769
00:43:16,640 --> 00:43:24,480
Speaker 3: can recognize and you know, if a team like Canada

770
00:43:24,640 --> 00:43:27,640
Speaker 3: ends up winning goal, right, you know, obviously we know

771
00:43:27,680 --> 00:43:31,440
Speaker 3: how dominate what the Gasol brothers, that Spain was and

772
00:43:31,560 --> 00:43:37,120
Speaker 3: that legendary Argentina team, but we can definitely would look

773
00:43:37,160 --> 00:43:39,600
Speaker 3: and be like, we're not surprised. We know how good

774
00:43:39,680 --> 00:43:43,560
Speaker 3: shake you'll just Alexander is you know, none of you

775
00:43:43,600 --> 00:43:47,960
Speaker 3: know what we've seen surprised us and even Giannis over

776
00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:52,319
Speaker 3: there with Greek but Greece. But I'm telling you, man,

777
00:43:53,280 --> 00:43:58,520
Speaker 3: from an NBA perspective, hands down the greatest Basketball Olympics

778
00:43:58,560 --> 00:44:02,400
Speaker 3: that we've seen, or just from a Star Powers perspective.

779
00:44:02,440 --> 00:44:05,839
Speaker 3: And then you know, even with this team, just to

780
00:44:05,880 --> 00:44:09,560
Speaker 3: have a team that you can compare and I know

781
00:44:09,640 --> 00:44:12,160
Speaker 3: the debate is starting to swirl. Some feel like there

782
00:44:12,200 --> 00:44:14,480
Speaker 3: is no debate, some feel like there is. And you've

783
00:44:14,480 --> 00:44:21,239
Speaker 3: got to give respect where it's due of the Dream Team.

784
00:44:21,320 --> 00:44:24,399
Speaker 3: You know, this team having comparisons with the Dream Team,

785
00:44:24,880 --> 00:44:25,560
Speaker 3: that's huge.

786
00:44:25,719 --> 00:44:27,560
Speaker 2: Well, I mean a lot of it. We talk about

787
00:44:27,560 --> 00:44:34,320
Speaker 2: the globalization of the game, the change in just athletes

788
00:44:34,719 --> 00:44:40,040
Speaker 2: in general, always great, but certainly more equally distributed. Shall

789
00:44:40,080 --> 00:44:42,440
Speaker 2: we say when we talk about where the NBA is, right,

790
00:44:42,480 --> 00:44:44,520
Speaker 2: if you do the hey, let's do the top ten

791
00:44:44,560 --> 00:44:47,360
Speaker 2: list of best players in the NBA. How many of

792
00:44:47,400 --> 00:44:51,680
Speaker 2: them are foreign born and trained in that growth?

793
00:44:51,760 --> 00:44:51,920
Speaker 3: Right?

794
00:44:51,960 --> 00:44:54,040
Speaker 2: You go back to Team Canada to show you how

795
00:44:54,040 --> 00:44:56,719
Speaker 2: big it is. Shake Gildess Alexander was the guest at

796
00:44:56,760 --> 00:45:02,120
Speaker 2: the halftime of the US game yesterday. We don't normally

797
00:45:02,120 --> 00:45:05,200
Speaker 2: do that in US coverage of the Olympics. Let's talk

798
00:45:05,239 --> 00:45:08,360
Speaker 2: to the Canadian but he was second in the league

799
00:45:08,520 --> 00:45:11,719
Speaker 2: in MVP voting. So here's Shake Gildes Alexander. Right, so

800
00:45:12,040 --> 00:45:16,080
Speaker 2: a little bit, you know, not to say you get myopic,

801
00:45:16,239 --> 00:45:18,680
Speaker 2: but let's face it, it's usually just a celebration of

802
00:45:18,719 --> 00:45:22,200
Speaker 2: here's another American athletes. Like, no, here's Shake Guild. Just

803
00:45:22,280 --> 00:45:24,719
Speaker 2: Alexander talking to Ti Rico while we wait for the

804
00:45:24,760 --> 00:45:29,920
Speaker 2: second half of the US game. But watching it play out,

805
00:45:30,160 --> 00:45:33,720
Speaker 2: you also have you go back to the Dream Team

806
00:45:34,280 --> 00:45:38,479
Speaker 2: of ninety two and again, different different time globally, where

807
00:45:38,520 --> 00:45:43,759
Speaker 2: the sport was, but also how it was covered. Access

808
00:45:44,160 --> 00:45:48,160
Speaker 2: to those athletes in the Olympic village and where they stayed,

809
00:45:48,239 --> 00:45:50,640
Speaker 2: and how they I mean, you were just talking about, hey,

810
00:45:50,680 --> 00:45:53,280
Speaker 2: trying to get a picture with Michael Jordan. Now guy's

811
00:45:53,320 --> 00:45:56,759
Speaker 2: been retired for twenty five years, and it's still Hey,

812
00:45:56,800 --> 00:46:00,520
Speaker 2: he showed up and you know, was more excited and

813
00:46:00,560 --> 00:46:03,400
Speaker 2: all of those kind of things. It makes news, right,

814
00:46:03,480 --> 00:46:05,359
Speaker 2: it's kind of a big deal. And there is at

815
00:46:05,360 --> 00:46:10,040
Speaker 2: the Hall of Fame enshrinement yesterday with Julius Peppers and

816
00:46:10,160 --> 00:46:14,200
Speaker 2: it becomes a hey, there's Michael Jordan. So take a

817
00:46:14,200 --> 00:46:17,560
Speaker 2: little shine from the event, but also add and magnifies

818
00:46:17,640 --> 00:46:20,880
Speaker 2: it because Michael Jordan showed up. That's how big a

819
00:46:20,920 --> 00:46:23,520
Speaker 2: presency is. But think about, you know, if we had

820
00:46:23,560 --> 00:46:26,800
Speaker 2: all these social media platforms and we had the instant

821
00:46:26,840 --> 00:46:30,359
Speaker 2: delivery of highlights and everything that we do now, back

822
00:46:30,440 --> 00:46:33,040
Speaker 2: then it was the George Michael's Sports machine reveted up

823
00:46:33,040 --> 00:46:35,440
Speaker 2: on a Sunday night for a lot of the highlights

824
00:46:35,480 --> 00:46:38,840
Speaker 2: of teams you wouldn't otherwise see. Not that you wouldn't

825
00:46:38,880 --> 00:46:44,440
Speaker 2: have gotten the Dream Team, but again, even televised Olympiads

826
00:46:44,800 --> 00:46:47,360
Speaker 2: back in the day, we're a totally different animal. We

827
00:46:47,360 --> 00:46:50,000
Speaker 2: didn't have nine thousand channels. It was how do you

828
00:46:50,040 --> 00:46:54,120
Speaker 2: compartmentalize it and make it a nice primetime package because

829
00:46:54,160 --> 00:46:56,880
Speaker 2: they weren't going to even preempt it for soap operas

830
00:46:57,160 --> 00:46:59,480
Speaker 2: a lot of times back in the day, you know

831
00:46:59,520 --> 00:47:02,719
Speaker 2: what I mean. But that's where we're at, right off

832
00:47:02,800 --> 00:47:04,680
Speaker 2: off of Peacock. We were talking about it before and

833
00:47:04,760 --> 00:47:07,719
Speaker 2: scrolling through you've got every event, and you've got it

834
00:47:08,000 --> 00:47:11,840
Speaker 2: sometimes in other languages available to you. Like it's just

835
00:47:12,200 --> 00:47:15,400
Speaker 2: a globalization and a difference and talking about you know,

836
00:47:15,400 --> 00:47:18,880
Speaker 2: where Team USA is on the men's side, and you know,

837
00:47:19,080 --> 00:47:23,160
Speaker 2: trying to go between generations and legacies. I mean, it's

838
00:47:23,239 --> 00:47:26,720
Speaker 2: fun fodder. Unless we can do some of the Marvel

839
00:47:26,840 --> 00:47:30,320
Speaker 2: Cinematic Universe things and actually merge these guys in their primes,

840
00:47:30,320 --> 00:47:34,160
Speaker 2: we'll never find out. But it's fun to theorize and

841
00:47:34,320 --> 00:47:37,640
Speaker 2: go through the process because we had Bird and Magic

842
00:47:37,719 --> 00:47:41,120
Speaker 2: and those guys towards the end of their run who

843
00:47:41,160 --> 00:47:43,279
Speaker 2: are actually younger than some of these guys that are

844
00:47:43,280 --> 00:47:46,760
Speaker 2: playing still at the top of their game now. Diet, nutrition,

845
00:47:47,239 --> 00:47:51,239
Speaker 2: all of those things that are different, and the microscope

846
00:47:51,640 --> 00:47:55,040
Speaker 2: being different and how you respond to it, you know,

847
00:47:55,160 --> 00:47:58,000
Speaker 2: to being under that magnifying glass. I think it's just

848
00:47:58,080 --> 00:48:01,680
Speaker 2: the fascinating study of it all right. For Kevin Durant.

849
00:48:01,800 --> 00:48:05,600
Speaker 2: I don't think I've seen him smile this much as

850
00:48:05,600 --> 00:48:07,960
Speaker 2: he has in the last week. Right, he's going back

851
00:48:07,960 --> 00:48:09,759
Speaker 2: and forth with folks on Twitter. He's got a lot

852
00:48:09,800 --> 00:48:12,760
Speaker 2: of downtime. They're going to all these events, like Steph

853
00:48:12,840 --> 00:48:15,400
Speaker 2: Curry with the ping pong team and asking them to

854
00:48:15,440 --> 00:48:18,279
Speaker 2: sign the ping pong balls was great, and showing up

855
00:48:18,320 --> 00:48:21,319
Speaker 2: at all these different events. I mean, your celebrities, but

856
00:48:21,440 --> 00:48:25,720
Speaker 2: you're still part of a collective and you appreciate greatness

857
00:48:25,760 --> 00:48:28,399
Speaker 2: based on what you've been able to achieve, and then

858
00:48:28,440 --> 00:48:30,880
Speaker 2: in your downtime it's like, hey, let's roll up to

859
00:48:30,960 --> 00:48:36,759
Speaker 2: event XYZ. That part of this Olympics has been kind

860
00:48:36,760 --> 00:48:39,640
Speaker 2: of cool to watch as well. Just the humanity, the

861
00:48:39,719 --> 00:48:42,960
Speaker 2: human side of the athletes that are normally just in

862
00:48:43,040 --> 00:48:45,359
Speaker 2: box scores. Doesn't mean we're still not doing the same

863
00:48:45,400 --> 00:48:48,320
Speaker 2: old nonsense that we do for the NBA and picking

864
00:48:48,320 --> 00:48:51,239
Speaker 2: apart everything. I mean, we'll talk about Steve Kerr's decisions

865
00:48:51,800 --> 00:48:54,439
Speaker 2: and what he's doing right guy rite, temperament and good

866
00:48:54,440 --> 00:48:57,600
Speaker 2: at managing egos, all of those things, but what do

867
00:48:57,640 --> 00:49:00,320
Speaker 2: we do we micro managed like we do all eighty

868
00:49:00,360 --> 00:49:03,160
Speaker 2: two of a home team's game or all the way

869
00:49:03,200 --> 00:49:06,960
Speaker 2: through the playoffs when they're broadcast nationally and we dissect

870
00:49:07,000 --> 00:49:09,960
Speaker 2: possession by possession, the good, the bad, the ugly, and

871
00:49:10,000 --> 00:49:12,000
Speaker 2: we're doing it here. But now we get to the

872
00:49:12,040 --> 00:49:14,840
Speaker 2: metal rounds. And I just thought the the way the

873
00:49:14,880 --> 00:49:17,360
Speaker 2: bracket got set up was just kind of funny, like,

874
00:49:17,360 --> 00:49:20,799
Speaker 2: all right, let's let's make sure we got us on

875
00:49:20,800 --> 00:49:23,840
Speaker 2: one side and take nothing away from the teams that

876
00:49:23,840 --> 00:49:26,719
Speaker 2: have advanced. But on the other side are where all

877
00:49:26,760 --> 00:49:31,320
Speaker 2: your marquee brands are in terms of opposition to the US,

878
00:49:31,440 --> 00:49:33,880
Speaker 2: including the home France squad.

879
00:49:35,560 --> 00:49:39,759
Speaker 3: Yeah, and you know that it's I don't know how

880
00:49:39,840 --> 00:49:43,959
Speaker 3: it's it's you know, put together in times, but yeah,

881
00:49:44,000 --> 00:49:47,320
Speaker 3: that's that's a part of it. You know. I remember

882
00:49:47,440 --> 00:49:51,560
Speaker 3: when I played under nineteens in Greece was the home

883
00:49:51,640 --> 00:49:55,680
Speaker 3: team back then. Okay, I'm still salty about that opportunity,

884
00:49:55,760 --> 00:49:59,319
Speaker 3: but we were date depth. When I tell you, they

885
00:49:59,440 --> 00:50:02,040
Speaker 3: stack the the other side away from Greece and made

886
00:50:02,040 --> 00:50:07,800
Speaker 3: sure that Greece had every opportunity. It was like Australia, Lithuania.

887
00:50:08,120 --> 00:50:11,879
Speaker 3: You know, Andrew bogat Lenis Klaza was with Lithuania and

888
00:50:12,120 --> 00:50:17,760
Speaker 3: Puerto Rico, and Puerto Rico had what's our guy JJ Berean.

889
00:50:17,960 --> 00:50:24,360
Speaker 3: Those guys man, they absolutely stacked that opposing side and

890
00:50:24,520 --> 00:50:27,920
Speaker 3: I definitely, I definitely remember that man, And we remember

891
00:50:27,920 --> 00:50:30,400
Speaker 3: we had a chance to go into the metal rounds

892
00:50:30,440 --> 00:50:33,000
Speaker 3: and we had to play against Australia after a heavy

893
00:50:33,000 --> 00:50:36,919
Speaker 3: win against Lithuania and we were absolutely gassed. So yeah,

894
00:50:36,960 --> 00:50:39,399
Speaker 3: you're gonna give your home country every chance to get

895
00:50:39,400 --> 00:50:41,360
Speaker 3: in and do their best. But again I don't know.

896
00:50:41,360 --> 00:50:43,360
Speaker 3: I'm speaking from my ignorance. I don't know how the

897
00:50:44,000 --> 00:50:46,080
Speaker 3: pool or the seating's done.

898
00:50:46,440 --> 00:50:48,319
Speaker 2: What do you think Franz Vogner? Is he gonna dunk

899
00:50:48,320 --> 00:50:51,920
Speaker 2: on Wemby? Again? I wanted my tops Now car to

900
00:50:52,000 --> 00:50:52,399
Speaker 2: that one.

901
00:50:53,000 --> 00:50:55,000
Speaker 3: He's probably gonna be dunked on a lot in his career,

902
00:50:55,080 --> 00:50:58,200
Speaker 3: but he unfairly blocks many shots.

903
00:50:58,440 --> 00:51:00,920
Speaker 2: Of course he does. He's a shot changer, he's a

904
00:51:01,960 --> 00:51:04,640
Speaker 2: look you get into the low post, the alterations, all

905
00:51:04,680 --> 00:51:07,239
Speaker 2: of those things. There's no no doubt about that. But

906
00:51:07,760 --> 00:51:09,800
Speaker 2: a bit of a rough week for the home squad

907
00:51:10,480 --> 00:51:16,160
Speaker 2: as it were, the curiosity of Rui Hachimura getting ejected

908
00:51:16,200 --> 00:51:22,640
Speaker 2: because of unsportsmanlike falls in. You know, some of these matchups,

909
00:51:22,719 --> 00:51:26,000
Speaker 2: you just get a bit confused as to what we're watching,

910
00:51:26,120 --> 00:51:29,080
Speaker 2: but you know, all in all, it's it's been a

911
00:51:29,120 --> 00:51:34,120
Speaker 2: fun tournament to watch and certainly the stars shining out

912
00:51:34,160 --> 00:51:37,600
Speaker 2: and having a good time with it. Like the camaraderie

913
00:51:37,600 --> 00:51:40,080
Speaker 2: within even if there's a lot of noise swirling around,

914
00:51:40,600 --> 00:51:41,719
Speaker 2: certainly seems to be there.

915
00:51:43,160 --> 00:51:48,399
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, man, it's again it's cool to watch. But

916
00:51:48,800 --> 00:51:51,239
Speaker 3: you know, I think again, man, this just has a

917
00:51:51,320 --> 00:51:53,800
Speaker 3: This is a different Olympics. Man, there's a different field

918
00:51:53,920 --> 00:51:56,400
Speaker 3: dun where you know we're used to seeing.

919
00:51:57,120 --> 00:52:00,000
Speaker 2: No question about it. All right, we'll continue with Draymond

920
00:52:00,080 --> 00:52:02,680
Speaker 2: and he commented on the d MPs. He had some

921
00:52:02,719 --> 00:52:06,800
Speaker 2: thoughts and e owed back to some old experiences in

922
00:52:07,480 --> 00:52:11,359
Speaker 2: his participation, but curiosity because you know, we've got now

923
00:52:11,440 --> 00:52:13,880
Speaker 2: the metal rounds and we've seen guys and it seems

924
00:52:14,000 --> 00:52:17,120
Speaker 2: drownd Robin of who's next up on the d NPS

925
00:52:17,239 --> 00:52:20,560
Speaker 2: and where you can find your rationale for it? So

926
00:52:20,600 --> 00:52:22,800
Speaker 2: we'll do that as we continue. It's Fox Sports Sunday,

Speaker 2: find me over at Swollen Dome. And the controversy still

949
00:53:38,000 --> 00:53:43,120
Speaker 2: swirls around Team USA. I dismiss it as I trust

950
00:53:43,160 --> 00:53:46,520
Speaker 2: Steve Kerr, Eric Spolsterra Tylou and the brain trust that

951
00:53:46,520 --> 00:53:49,719
Speaker 2: they've assembled. They know what they're doing, particularly the Steve

952
00:53:49,760 --> 00:53:52,920
Speaker 2: Kerr component when it comes to handling Egos Spolstra on

953
00:53:53,040 --> 00:53:55,759
Speaker 2: the metal stand. There as well of guys that have

954
00:53:55,880 --> 00:53:59,400
Speaker 2: had to take a lot of big time players, figure

955
00:53:59,400 --> 00:54:04,239
Speaker 2: out role sprinkle in some role players to greatness, and

956
00:54:04,320 --> 00:54:07,759
Speaker 2: certainly Team USA. The role players are still some of

957
00:54:07,800 --> 00:54:12,800
Speaker 2: your current elites. But as you would expect, Ryan Allins

958
00:54:13,280 --> 00:54:16,080
Speaker 2: Draymond Green decided he needed to chime in on the

959
00:54:16,200 --> 00:54:19,120
Speaker 2: job Steve Kerr and company are doing, particularly as related

960
00:54:19,400 --> 00:54:24,560
Speaker 2: to Jason Tatum and later Joel embiid. What I don't

961
00:54:24,640 --> 00:54:27,560
Speaker 2: like about it is now to me, it feels like.

962
00:54:29,200 --> 00:54:31,600
Speaker 9: A cover in my tracks, like proving a point and

963
00:54:31,600 --> 00:54:33,960
Speaker 9: type thing to where like, oh now Joel's out of

964
00:54:33,960 --> 00:54:39,640
Speaker 9: the lineup, and then today Drew didn't play. And I'm

965
00:54:39,680 --> 00:54:43,200
Speaker 9: sure it's part we could rest the ankle a little bit,

966
00:54:43,960 --> 00:54:47,800
Speaker 9: but it's part we gotta not play someone. And quite frankly,

967
00:54:47,840 --> 00:54:50,640
Speaker 9: I don't like it, like come up with a rotation

968
00:54:50,760 --> 00:54:51,520
Speaker 9: to stick with it.

969
00:54:51,640 --> 00:54:52,840
Speaker 2: These teams aren't.

970
00:54:52,600 --> 00:54:55,760
Speaker 9: Good enough to where we're trying to match their lineup.

971
00:54:56,840 --> 00:54:58,280
Speaker 2: We gotta match our lineup.

972
00:54:59,600 --> 00:55:02,360
Speaker 9: Hey, we're not matching they line up, by the way,

973
00:55:02,560 --> 00:55:04,200
Speaker 9: because we got the best players.

974
00:55:03,880 --> 00:55:07,200
Speaker 2: In the world we gonna match they line up anyway with.

975
00:55:07,280 --> 00:55:09,880
Speaker 3: Whoever we got on the court, We'll be fine.

976
00:55:10,960 --> 00:55:12,800
Speaker 2: So the whole like match their.

977
00:55:12,640 --> 00:55:15,720
Speaker 9: Lineup or you know, this guy out of the lineup

978
00:55:15,680 --> 00:55:16,759
Speaker 9: and not disagree with it.

979
00:55:18,000 --> 00:55:21,440
Speaker 2: Sore you go Draymond saying, hey, look, I get it.

980
00:55:21,480 --> 00:55:25,960
Speaker 2: You can talk about matchups and what challenges South Sudan

981
00:55:26,440 --> 00:55:29,000
Speaker 2: presents in terms of the up and down pace and

982
00:55:29,080 --> 00:55:32,600
Speaker 2: three point shooting, et cetera. Related to where Joel Embiide

983
00:55:32,640 --> 00:55:36,120
Speaker 2: is physically and what he does and how you need

984
00:55:36,160 --> 00:55:39,200
Speaker 2: to operate your offense with him. But I didn't think

985
00:55:39,280 --> 00:55:41,920
Speaker 2: Draymond would go the three weeks without a little commentary,

986
00:55:41,920 --> 00:55:42,439
Speaker 2: did you, Ryan.

987
00:55:44,200 --> 00:55:47,879
Speaker 3: I mean, hey, he's in it, and I hear where

988
00:55:47,880 --> 00:55:51,880
Speaker 3: he's coming from. But you know, in terms of Joel,

989
00:55:52,080 --> 00:55:55,000
Speaker 3: teams were trying to, you know, making him have to

990
00:55:55,120 --> 00:55:58,439
Speaker 3: chase around the perimeter. But so his value isn't there

991
00:55:59,320 --> 00:56:03,080
Speaker 3: every game. So I do disagree with Draymond. I think

992
00:56:03,120 --> 00:56:07,000
Speaker 3: in terms of Jason Tatum, because of his versatility, they

993
00:56:07,040 --> 00:56:09,600
Speaker 3: don't really get why he wouldn't play. I do think

994
00:56:09,680 --> 00:56:12,479
Speaker 3: that was a mistake, but I know that also, hey,

995
00:56:12,520 --> 00:56:14,680
Speaker 3: in the locker room and probably before he was even

996
00:56:14,719 --> 00:56:17,600
Speaker 3: selected maybe those guys were asked, and I have no

997
00:56:17,680 --> 00:56:20,080
Speaker 3: problem with that. I don't like the social media backlash.

998
00:56:20,120 --> 00:56:22,120
Speaker 3: And we had, you know, we have now that we

999
00:56:22,160 --> 00:56:25,400
Speaker 3: didn't have back then. And maybe Jason Tatum was asked,

1000
00:56:25,560 --> 00:56:28,480
Speaker 3: are you okay with a DMP some games? Are you

1001
00:56:28,520 --> 00:56:31,720
Speaker 3: okay stepping in to defend? Are you okay if someone

1002
00:56:31,760 --> 00:56:34,520
Speaker 3: is more equipped from you in a certain game. He's

1003
00:56:34,560 --> 00:56:37,200
Speaker 3: not the most amazing defender. Derek White's a better defender.

1004
00:56:37,360 --> 00:56:39,600
Speaker 3: We can't argue that Tatum is the better player that

1005
00:56:39,760 --> 00:56:44,080
Speaker 3: did it. That is unanimous. So Joel, hey, you're gonna

1006
00:56:44,080 --> 00:56:47,760
Speaker 3: get a DMP this game? Are you okay with that? Okay?

1007
00:56:48,000 --> 00:56:51,560
Speaker 3: They go small, their center shoots threes. Yes, you can

1008
00:56:51,600 --> 00:56:53,959
Speaker 3: dominate them, but we don't want to spin the ball.

1009
00:56:54,800 --> 00:56:57,120
Speaker 3: You're pounding it into the paint or the game pounding

1010
00:56:57,160 --> 00:57:03,600
Speaker 3: into the Paintin there's it's a pass or fail grade here.

1011
00:57:04,160 --> 00:57:08,160
Speaker 3: It ain't about feelings. It's gold or nothing at all.

1012
00:57:08,680 --> 00:57:11,680
Speaker 3: And the coaching staff assembled the players that bought in.

1013
00:57:12,239 --> 00:57:15,319
Speaker 3: I got a chance to see him in in the

1014
00:57:16,120 --> 00:57:18,400
Speaker 3: I wanted to call it preseason, but in the exhibition,

1015
00:57:19,200 --> 00:57:21,960
Speaker 3: and the one thing that I saw is that all

1016
00:57:21,960 --> 00:57:24,160
Speaker 3: those guys were bought in. Man. I don't think they

1017
00:57:24,200 --> 00:57:27,640
Speaker 3: really cared too much about minutes, and you can see

1018
00:57:27,920 --> 00:57:29,800
Speaker 3: that's why some people are left off the team, where

1019
00:57:29,800 --> 00:57:32,840
Speaker 3: they like it or not. Hey, maybe Draymond felt like

1020
00:57:33,480 --> 00:57:35,480
Speaker 3: he was a guy that could have got to invite.

1021
00:57:35,520 --> 00:57:39,080
Speaker 3: He could have been, you know, a Drew Holiday, you

1022
00:57:39,160 --> 00:57:40,880
Speaker 3: know for the team where he could have been a

1023
00:57:40,960 --> 00:57:44,000
Speaker 3: Derek White, you know, with his experience and honestly, the

1024
00:57:44,000 --> 00:57:47,880
Speaker 3: way that Draymond plays, he's equipped for the world, for

1025
00:57:47,960 --> 00:57:51,840
Speaker 3: the world sport, you know, for world basketball, for Olympic basketball.

1026
00:57:52,280 --> 00:57:54,840
Speaker 3: His style of play is that. So who knows, Maybe

1027
00:57:54,880 --> 00:57:56,640
Speaker 3: he's a little disappointed. He went and asked that, I

1028
00:57:56,640 --> 00:57:57,840
Speaker 3: don't know, I'm just assuming.

1029
00:57:58,280 --> 00:58:02,600
Speaker 2: But see that's it, right, we are getting into backgrounds,

1030
00:58:02,640 --> 00:58:05,200
Speaker 2: agendas and where you are on the depth chart. Did

1031
00:58:05,240 --> 00:58:09,520
Speaker 2: you have conversations that led to a dead end in

1032
00:58:09,640 --> 00:58:14,160
Speaker 2: terms of involvement. Obviously, when you're questioning this stuff, it

1033
00:58:14,200 --> 00:58:17,120
Speaker 2: goes back to that's your coach. May for Tatum, he

1034
00:58:17,120 --> 00:58:21,960
Speaker 2: didn't play great in the exhibitioner for five run or

1035
00:58:22,000 --> 00:58:23,680
Speaker 2: the five and zero run, I should say, right, the

1036
00:58:23,800 --> 00:58:27,240
Speaker 2: five games and look, Steph hasn't shot lights out either,

1037
00:58:28,040 --> 00:58:30,800
Speaker 2: so you know you can go and start pointing your fingers.

1038
00:58:31,160 --> 00:58:34,760
Speaker 2: You know, we were having our pre show valuation, Brion,

1039
00:58:34,840 --> 00:58:36,160
Speaker 2: if you want to jump in here and make your

1040
00:58:36,160 --> 00:58:37,720
Speaker 2: case for your guy. I mean, we've got the hoop

1041
00:58:37,800 --> 00:58:42,280
Speaker 2: type global ratings of players thus far marveling at the

1042
00:58:42,280 --> 00:58:44,360
Speaker 2: wonderful world of Kevin Durant. And one of the things

1043
00:58:44,400 --> 00:58:48,560
Speaker 2: I've loved is watching Anthony Edwards continually looking or at

1044
00:58:48,680 --> 00:58:51,760
Speaker 2: least to my estimation, looking for the approval and love

1045
00:58:52,040 --> 00:58:57,560
Speaker 2: from Kevin Durant. But you got Edwards as rated highest

1046
00:58:57,640 --> 00:59:02,120
Speaker 2: thus far during these game games. Durant second, Lebron coming

1047
00:59:02,160 --> 00:59:04,760
Speaker 2: in third, and then Breonna has got her guy, Devin Booker,

1048
00:59:05,040 --> 00:59:08,280
Speaker 2: two way guy getting his love in the four slot,

1049
00:59:08,880 --> 00:59:12,640
Speaker 2: and on the telecast certainly Dwayne Wade's gone out of

1050
00:59:12,640 --> 00:59:14,640
Speaker 2: his way to make sure to single him out for

1051
00:59:14,720 --> 00:59:17,440
Speaker 2: what he's doing on both sides. So, Brianna, your Phoenix

1052
00:59:17,480 --> 00:59:18,640
Speaker 2: Sun's getting a little bit of love.

1053
00:59:19,200 --> 00:59:19,400
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1054
00:59:19,440 --> 00:59:21,840
Speaker 10: And I just think he's been really stepping up like on,

1055
00:59:22,000 --> 00:59:25,360
Speaker 10: especially defensively, and he's actually been like the one constant

1056
00:59:26,600 --> 00:59:31,120
Speaker 10: as the starter throughout these entire Olympic games. And like

1057
00:59:31,160 --> 00:59:35,600
Speaker 10: I said, defensively, he's just been on. You know, I

1058
00:59:35,640 --> 00:59:38,280
Speaker 10: can't talk, but basically you know what I mean. So

1059
00:59:38,360 --> 00:59:40,800
Speaker 10: I just I just feel like he's a huge difference

1060
00:59:40,840 --> 00:59:43,960
Speaker 10: maker and he's making a huge impact, you know, not

1061
00:59:44,000 --> 00:59:46,760
Speaker 10: as much as like Anthony Edwards and like Katie, but

1062
00:59:47,280 --> 00:59:50,840
Speaker 10: I think he's been pretty critical to their successful well.

1063
00:59:50,840 --> 00:59:53,640
Speaker 2: But that's part. Part of it is being consistent, right,

1064
00:59:53,760 --> 00:59:56,520
Speaker 2: and consistent minutes and going back to the Tatum thing

1065
00:59:57,680 --> 01:00:00,400
Speaker 2: war EMBIID, you know, EMBIID sits out. There were a

1066
01:00:00,440 --> 01:00:03,320
Speaker 2: lot of speculation that, you know, prom you got to

1067
01:00:03,320 --> 01:00:05,760
Speaker 2: promise these guys something getting here, right, You've got to

1068
01:00:05,800 --> 01:00:08,320
Speaker 2: convince them to sign up for it. You're doing. The

1069
01:00:08,320 --> 01:00:11,560
Speaker 2: recruit is like college, right, like a college kid. Like

1070
01:00:11,560 --> 01:00:14,280
Speaker 2: it's coach coming to sit on your couch, Ryan Hollins

1071
01:00:14,320 --> 01:00:16,440
Speaker 2: to come in, so you know, hey, what are the

1072
01:00:16,480 --> 01:00:19,360
Speaker 2: assurance pt what's the training look like? All of those

1073
01:00:19,480 --> 01:00:22,000
Speaker 2: kinds of things are going to be part of this process.

1074
01:00:22,320 --> 01:00:25,440
Speaker 2: You know. To that point, I think Booker as in

1075
01:00:25,520 --> 01:00:29,160
Speaker 2: terms of consistency of effort on both ends. You know,

1076
01:00:29,200 --> 01:00:32,720
Speaker 2: I certainly have no issue with him being I would

1077
01:00:32,720 --> 01:00:34,920
Speaker 2: have put him on the metal stand just because you know,

1078
01:00:34,960 --> 01:00:35,800
Speaker 2: that's the importance.

1079
01:00:36,120 --> 01:00:38,120
Speaker 10: He's like bought into his role too, which I think

1080
01:00:38,120 --> 01:00:39,680
Speaker 10: has been pretty important.

1081
01:00:41,080 --> 01:00:45,400
Speaker 3: Mister, buying into your role at this stage is everything

1082
01:00:45,440 --> 01:00:50,400
Speaker 3: because you can trust me. There's a more talented group

1083
01:00:50,640 --> 01:00:52,720
Speaker 3: out there that could have been a part of this.

1084
01:00:53,440 --> 01:00:56,720
Speaker 3: There's a group that's more talents. But again, if you're

1085
01:00:56,720 --> 01:00:58,840
Speaker 3: a part of the committee and you don't want to

1086
01:00:58,920 --> 01:01:02,400
Speaker 3: hurt feelings, you're worried oft feelings and someone's gonna be upset.

1087
01:01:02,440 --> 01:01:06,160
Speaker 3: It's just kind of part of the sport. And you

1088
01:01:06,400 --> 01:01:11,960
Speaker 3: don't you don't win gold, you failed that. It's all

1089
01:01:12,000 --> 01:01:14,360
Speaker 3: that they're not gonna ahe man, you left that guy off.

1090
01:01:15,240 --> 01:01:17,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, so it's you don't want to can't get in

1091
01:01:18,000 --> 01:01:20,800
Speaker 2: your fields, and like that's the thing. I tried to

1092
01:01:20,920 --> 01:01:23,200
Speaker 2: use this with Smith. He got kind of mad at me.

1093
01:01:23,320 --> 01:01:26,520
Speaker 2: But like anything you do, you can get through for

1094
01:01:26,560 --> 01:01:31,520
Speaker 2: a short period of time. Right, Maybe you don't like coworkers.

1095
01:01:31,920 --> 01:01:34,240
Speaker 2: Maybe you'll be on a new project, maybe they'll leave,

1096
01:01:34,320 --> 01:01:38,200
Speaker 2: maybe you'll leave. Whatever. The class that you sign up for,

1097
01:01:38,600 --> 01:01:41,360
Speaker 2: well it's part of the major requirements. You know you're

1098
01:01:41,360 --> 01:01:45,320
Speaker 2: going to struggle. Maybe it's that rogue chemistry class you

1099
01:01:45,360 --> 01:01:48,040
Speaker 2: have to take and you have no aptitude and no desire.

1100
01:01:48,360 --> 01:01:51,960
Speaker 2: Guess what twelve weeks or however long your semester or

1101
01:01:52,040 --> 01:01:55,479
Speaker 2: quarter is will go by pretty fast. Same thing here.

1102
01:01:55,840 --> 01:01:58,880
Speaker 2: You may not like it, but you could probably swallow

1103
01:01:58,920 --> 01:02:01,200
Speaker 2: your pride a little bit for three weeks knowing that

1104
01:02:01,200 --> 01:02:06,680
Speaker 2: that Olympic medal has grander meaning for your career, your longevity,

1105
01:02:06,920 --> 01:02:09,760
Speaker 2: and hopefully the sense of pride of being part of

1106
01:02:09,800 --> 01:02:12,280
Speaker 2: that team, whether you're getting huge minutes or not. For

1107
01:02:12,360 --> 01:02:14,800
Speaker 2: Jason Tatum in Game one, it's like, once it's a

1108
01:02:15,000 --> 01:02:19,240
Speaker 2: it becomes a all right, what's the margin of victory? Question?

1109
01:02:19,680 --> 01:02:22,720
Speaker 2: Are we going to cover the spread is more of

1110
01:02:22,760 --> 01:02:25,520
Speaker 2: the question than are we in the battles of a

1111
01:02:25,560 --> 01:02:26,800
Speaker 2: game that we may lose?

1112
01:02:27,920 --> 01:02:28,200
Speaker 3: Then?

1113
01:02:28,320 --> 01:02:30,400
Speaker 2: How many guys are like, Yeah, I don't need the

1114
01:02:30,440 --> 01:02:33,680
Speaker 2: five minutes coming off the end of the bench, especially

1115
01:02:33,680 --> 01:02:36,960
Speaker 2: if you're a guy of that caliber, Right, it's you know,

1116
01:02:37,000 --> 01:02:39,640
Speaker 2: and it's not Hey, I'm it's senior night and I

1117
01:02:39,680 --> 01:02:42,920
Speaker 2: haven't seen a minute, so you know, clear the bench

1118
01:02:42,960 --> 01:02:45,919
Speaker 2: and get me in. Oh you're an Olympian. I don't

1119
01:02:45,960 --> 01:02:48,080
Speaker 2: know how much you'd want that five minutes at the

1120
01:02:48,160 --> 01:02:51,320
Speaker 2: end of the game to just finish it out? Or

1121
01:02:51,360 --> 01:02:53,840
Speaker 2: am I? Am I wrong in thinking that way about

1122
01:02:53,920 --> 01:02:57,919
Speaker 2: perhaps you know, looking Kirks took it and said, hey,

1123
01:02:58,080 --> 01:03:00,760
Speaker 2: it's my mistake. It won't happen. We'll figure it out.

1124
01:03:00,800 --> 01:03:03,640
Speaker 2: He's gonna play next game. But for some of it,

1125
01:03:03,640 --> 01:03:06,840
Speaker 2: it becomes again a little bit of the ego management

1126
01:03:06,880 --> 01:03:09,240
Speaker 2: of all right, this game's decided, now you go win.

1127
01:03:11,320 --> 01:03:13,760
Speaker 3: I think at the end of the day, it's whatever.

1128
01:03:14,480 --> 01:03:17,160
Speaker 3: As a player, I will say, wherever the communication was,

1129
01:03:17,160 --> 01:03:21,440
Speaker 3: as a player, you roll with it, and that shows

1130
01:03:21,600 --> 01:03:23,400
Speaker 3: obviously a respect for the game, but a buy in.

1131
01:03:23,760 --> 01:03:27,120
Speaker 3: And I think that if that communication was there, hey,

1132
01:03:27,240 --> 01:03:31,120
Speaker 3: j T, we're gonna go with Derek White for defensive purposes.

1133
01:03:31,160 --> 01:03:33,240
Speaker 3: This game know its light to you, and he knows

1134
01:03:33,760 --> 01:03:37,160
Speaker 3: going in he's not gonna play. That's fair. But what's

1135
01:03:37,200 --> 01:03:39,440
Speaker 3: tough is when you get out there, you're prepared, you

1136
01:03:39,600 --> 01:03:43,840
Speaker 3: lathered up, you're ready to go, and then and then

1137
01:03:43,880 --> 01:03:46,840
Speaker 3: you don't play. Sure what is going on? And from

1138
01:03:46,920 --> 01:03:49,800
Speaker 3: the looks of those guys and he didn't play, I

1139
01:03:49,840 --> 01:03:53,160
Speaker 3: don't think that was the case. I don't think it was.

1140
01:03:53,560 --> 01:03:55,840
Speaker 3: I think Joel has been a great sport about it

1141
01:03:55,840 --> 01:03:58,480
Speaker 3: when he didn't play. And yes, there is a big

1142
01:03:58,480 --> 01:04:01,840
Speaker 3: part of him being there because if USA ends up

1143
01:04:01,840 --> 01:04:04,320
Speaker 3: matched up with France. You don't want to get dominated

1144
01:04:04,600 --> 01:04:07,160
Speaker 3: in the pain or have Gobert running around free. Or

1145
01:04:07,400 --> 01:04:10,640
Speaker 3: if the USA when they when they matched up with Serbia,

1146
01:04:10,880 --> 01:04:12,920
Speaker 3: Jokic didn't just have a field day on the block.

1147
01:04:13,240 --> 01:04:15,200
Speaker 3: And I tell you one thing that we know, Anthony

1148
01:04:15,280 --> 01:04:17,400
Speaker 3: Davis would have had a long bam out of Baio,

1149
01:04:17,440 --> 01:04:21,440
Speaker 3: would have had a long, very long night trying to

1150
01:04:21,520 --> 01:04:25,880
Speaker 3: dart guard Yokic. Okay, So sure he has immense value,

1151
01:04:26,520 --> 01:04:29,440
Speaker 3: even though you don't see it the way that we're

1152
01:04:29,560 --> 01:04:32,440
Speaker 3: seeing it. Used to seeing it from Joel Embiid and

1153
01:04:32,560 --> 01:04:34,400
Speaker 3: used to seeing it front of those guys. Hey, Anthony

1154
01:04:34,480 --> 01:04:36,520
Speaker 3: Edward's coming off the bench. They were arguing if he's

1155
01:04:36,560 --> 01:04:37,640
Speaker 3: the best player on the planet.

1156
01:04:37,720 --> 01:04:39,920
Speaker 2: Well, he also said he was the number one option,

1157
01:04:40,080 --> 01:04:43,880
Speaker 2: so he raised his hand. Remember the Jordan comparisons that

1158
01:04:43,960 --> 01:04:46,400
Speaker 2: started being made as we got into the playoffs and

1159
01:04:46,440 --> 01:04:50,240
Speaker 2: everything else. Uh, you know, the let's build it up, uh.

1160
01:04:50,280 --> 01:04:54,440
Speaker 2: And part of it is look, I'm not gonna say

1161
01:04:54,720 --> 01:04:58,440
Speaker 2: it's an active part part of a lot of sports media,

1162
01:04:58,520 --> 01:05:01,400
Speaker 2: but some of it is conquered. Divide and conquer and

1163
01:05:01,440 --> 01:05:03,360
Speaker 2: see if you can find fractures, because then you might

1164
01:05:03,400 --> 01:05:05,960
Speaker 2: get someone to give you a good one liner, like

1165
01:05:06,080 --> 01:05:09,080
Speaker 2: Jason Tatum and the wake of the DNP is like,

1166
01:05:09,320 --> 01:05:11,880
Speaker 2: you know, it was humbling. I understand things from a

1167
01:05:11,960 --> 01:05:15,520
Speaker 2: little different perspective now, right, it seems kind of contemplative

1168
01:05:15,560 --> 01:05:19,280
Speaker 2: and you know, thoughtful and reflective of the whole thing.

1169
01:05:19,520 --> 01:05:23,400
Speaker 2: And let's not kid ourselves. If Joel Embiid wasn't happy

1170
01:05:23,560 --> 01:05:26,360
Speaker 2: or isn't happy with some of this stuff, eventually he's

1171
01:05:26,400 --> 01:05:30,160
Speaker 2: hitting a podcast and he's gonna tell us just a

1172
01:05:30,160 --> 01:05:33,680
Speaker 2: matter of when. That's not a guy that's gonna, you know,

1173
01:05:33,800 --> 01:05:38,760
Speaker 2: just swallow something if he felt disrespected or anything. Eventually

1174
01:05:38,760 --> 01:05:44,000
Speaker 2: it's gonna come out. Oh yeah, right, of all those

1175
01:05:44,000 --> 01:05:46,400
Speaker 2: guys like that's the guy I look at it. Go Really,

1176
01:05:46,560 --> 01:05:49,320
Speaker 2: if he's salty about any of this, he may be

1177
01:05:49,520 --> 01:05:51,840
Speaker 2: fine on the bench now and you might have the

1178
01:05:51,880 --> 01:05:54,960
Speaker 2: stoic look on his face as you know, the French

1179
01:05:55,000 --> 01:05:59,240
Speaker 2: crowd booze him, but eventually he'll have his say. It's

1180
01:05:59,280 --> 01:06:03,800
Speaker 2: like Draymond anything happens related to the NBA or its players,

1181
01:06:04,240 --> 01:06:07,880
Speaker 2: we know we're getting a podcast on it eventually, and

1182
01:06:07,960 --> 01:06:09,520
Speaker 2: Joe Al Embiid's not far behind.

1183
01:06:10,880 --> 01:06:13,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, No, you're right about that. There is there's no

1184
01:06:14,720 --> 01:06:19,240
Speaker 3: there's no question at all. You know, guys will let

1185
01:06:19,280 --> 01:06:22,480
Speaker 3: you know. But here's the thing, man, I guess be

1186
01:06:22,600 --> 01:06:26,440
Speaker 3: mindful about speaking out, man, because you can, you know,

1187
01:06:26,480 --> 01:06:30,320
Speaker 3: you likely take yourself out of consideration, you know, for

1188
01:06:30,360 --> 01:06:33,560
Speaker 3: the next time. And you know, the committee and Sean

1189
01:06:33,640 --> 01:06:36,360
Speaker 3: Ford and Grant Hill, they know the guys that are out,

1190
01:06:36,440 --> 01:06:40,440
Speaker 3: you know, you know, it wasn't perfect, and you know,

1191
01:06:40,600 --> 01:06:43,600
Speaker 3: I got a chance to do some USA Basketball stuff,

1192
01:06:43,600 --> 01:06:46,800
Speaker 3: but they're concerned about image. Hey, do guys want to

1193
01:06:46,800 --> 01:06:50,000
Speaker 3: have the commitment? You know, are you willing to buy in?

1194
01:06:50,120 --> 01:06:52,440
Speaker 3: And you know it starts at the top and it's

1195
01:06:52,520 --> 01:06:56,520
Speaker 3: it's not equal. Hey man, you can probably clearly for

1196
01:06:56,640 --> 01:06:59,880
Speaker 3: chemistry purposes. Isaiah Thomas was left off the Dream Team.

1197
01:07:00,080 --> 01:07:03,360
Speaker 3: To this day. That still urks Isaiah that it's just like,

1198
01:07:03,440 --> 01:07:06,320
Speaker 3: come on, man, you know. And and he wasn't even

1199
01:07:06,360 --> 01:07:12,080
Speaker 3: afforded a conversation, you know, because Michael was the priority. Okay.

1200
01:07:12,400 --> 01:07:16,600
Speaker 3: And I don't think anybody has beef Jalen Brown, you know,

1201
01:07:16,880 --> 01:07:21,760
Speaker 3: except from the standpoint Yeah, well, hey.

1202
01:07:20,880 --> 01:07:23,440
Speaker 2: Accept administratively from the players standpoint.

1203
01:07:23,480 --> 01:07:25,880
Speaker 3: Now, well, hey, you side note. You know, it's funny

1204
01:07:25,880 --> 01:07:28,960
Speaker 3: everybody was wondering how do you dethrown the Celtics. They

1205
01:07:29,040 --> 01:07:31,520
Speaker 3: just look so dominant and so deep, you know how

1206
01:07:31,680 --> 01:07:32,680
Speaker 3: USA basketball.

1207
01:07:33,080 --> 01:07:36,200
Speaker 2: No, that just seems the case, right. That was Steve

1208
01:07:36,320 --> 01:07:39,080
Speaker 2: Kerr might be playing the long game and he actually

1209
01:07:39,080 --> 01:07:42,480
Speaker 2: thinks his Warriors are ready for another run up in

1210
01:07:42,520 --> 01:07:46,080
Speaker 2: the Western Conference. Hey, someone's gotta believe, and this is

1211
01:07:46,120 --> 01:07:50,240
Speaker 2: the way to maybe fracture the heavyweight on the other side.

1212
01:07:52,000 --> 01:07:55,440
Speaker 3: And AND's for funny and for Steve Kerr. You know,

1213
01:07:55,680 --> 01:07:58,960
Speaker 3: side note, Draymond's talking about the coaching for TVU. No,

1214
01:07:59,080 --> 01:07:59,720
Speaker 3: that's what I mean.

1215
01:08:01,160 --> 01:08:04,920
Speaker 2: What I'm saying, right, you got him doing this And

1216
01:08:04,960 --> 01:08:07,360
Speaker 2: we'll get into Steph Curry next hour because he's not

1217
01:08:07,480 --> 01:08:10,360
Speaker 2: going to Chris Haynes had the report, remember who Steph

1218
01:08:10,480 --> 01:08:13,440
Speaker 2: met with the media a while ago talking about, well,

1219
01:08:13,480 --> 01:08:16,120
Speaker 2: you know, echoing Dak Prescott a bit of like, well,

1220
01:08:16,280 --> 01:08:20,040
Speaker 2: guys have gone to other other jerseys and whatever, and

1221
01:08:20,080 --> 01:08:22,640
Speaker 2: if winning's not the thing, sounds like there might be

1222
01:08:22,680 --> 01:08:24,920
Speaker 2: a little more than that. So Steve Kerr not only

1223
01:08:24,960 --> 01:08:29,960
Speaker 2: putting out fires with US media covering his squad and

1224
01:08:30,880 --> 01:08:35,479
Speaker 2: again armchair quarterbacking coaching decisions and rotations, but also the

1225
01:08:35,520 --> 01:08:39,120
Speaker 2: fact that internally, now you got Draymond piping up. You

1226
01:08:39,240 --> 01:08:42,400
Speaker 2: got Steph who may be looking at greener pastures hanging

1227
01:08:42,400 --> 01:08:46,240
Speaker 2: out with a bunch of other superstars at the Olympics.

1228
01:08:46,240 --> 01:08:49,720
Speaker 2: We always chuckle about tampering and all, Ryan Hollins, they

1229
01:08:49,720 --> 01:08:51,439
Speaker 2: got a lot of time together as they go from

1230
01:08:51,439 --> 01:08:52,200
Speaker 2: event to event.

1231
01:08:54,200 --> 01:08:57,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, hey, man, you know what those guys are enjoying it,

1232
01:08:57,880 --> 01:09:01,280
Speaker 3: you know, and look who winning. Here's all you don't

1233
01:09:01,280 --> 01:09:04,800
Speaker 3: want to get into a losing situation. And here's what

1234
01:09:04,920 --> 01:09:07,000
Speaker 3: I know you guys are worried about all these minutes.

1235
01:09:07,640 --> 01:09:10,160
Speaker 3: I'm gonna tell you one thing, when when those difficult

1236
01:09:10,200 --> 01:09:14,080
Speaker 3: games come around, they're gonna be difficult, and it ain't

1237
01:09:14,160 --> 01:09:18,439
Speaker 3: gonna be about feelings. Because once you see a team,

1238
01:09:18,520 --> 01:09:20,880
Speaker 3: probably the second or third time, all of a sudden,

1239
01:09:20,960 --> 01:09:24,080
Speaker 3: and man, they come out fire and it's a different game.

1240
01:09:24,200 --> 01:09:24,439
Speaker 4: Man.

1241
01:09:25,400 --> 01:09:28,880
Speaker 3: So I think with the experience, you know, Team of

1242
01:09:29,000 --> 01:09:32,160
Speaker 3: USA is going we better be prepared. Everything's fine and

1243
01:09:32,280 --> 01:09:34,719
Speaker 3: dandy now, but I'm telling you it heats up quick.

1244
01:09:35,120 --> 01:09:36,920
Speaker 3: You find yourself down twenty points.

1245
01:09:37,600 --> 01:09:40,280
Speaker 2: He's Ryan Hollins on Mike Harmon here, Fox Sports Radio,

1246
01:09:40,360 --> 01:09:43,639
Speaker 2: Fox Sports Sunday. Coming up next, we'll turn our attention

1247
01:09:43,720 --> 01:09:48,440
Speaker 2: to the National Football League. We got three quarterbacks injury

1248
01:09:48,600 --> 01:09:52,320
Speaker 2: and availability concerns, but one of them. I saw a

1249
01:09:52,320 --> 01:09:54,759
Speaker 2: bunch of billboards for that squad today and I gotta

1250
01:09:54,760 --> 01:09:59,599
Speaker 2: say my panic meter is rising fast. We'll talk about

1251
01:09:59,600 --> 01:10:03,799
Speaker 2: that next, but first, it's Isaac Lohenkron, the man, the legend,

1252
01:10:03,840 --> 01:10:06,639
Speaker 2: the myth over at the news desk. He's got everything

1253
01:10:06,680 --> 01:10:07,960
Speaker 2: trend to get our sporting.

1254
01:10:07,680 --> 01:10:10,040
Speaker 8: Universe Mike and Ryan thinks really heating up right now.

1255
01:10:10,080 --> 01:10:12,559
Speaker 8: In the final round of the men's golf competition at

1256
01:10:12,600 --> 01:10:16,040
Speaker 8: the Olympics, American Scottie Scheffler is now tied for the

1257
01:10:16,120 --> 01:10:20,240
Speaker 8: lead with Tommy Fleetwood at eighteen under par overall. In

1258
01:10:20,280 --> 01:10:24,840
Speaker 8: the final round today, Scheffler is eight under through sixteen

1259
01:10:25,000 --> 01:10:27,599
Speaker 8: so it's Scheffler and Fleetwood tied for the lead at

1260
01:10:27,640 --> 01:10:31,920
Speaker 8: eighteen under. Hideki Matsuyama one shot back at seventeen under.

1261
01:10:32,240 --> 01:10:35,800
Speaker 8: Victor Perez and John Rahm are two shots back at

1262
01:10:35,880 --> 01:10:38,880
Speaker 8: sixteen under. If the final round ends in any sort

1263
01:10:38,920 --> 01:10:41,320
Speaker 8: of tie, they will go to a three hole playoff.

1264
01:10:42,439 --> 01:10:46,320
Speaker 8: In the gold medal match in men's tennis, Novak Djokovic

1265
01:10:46,520 --> 01:10:49,560
Speaker 8: took the first set over Carlos al Karaz in a

1266
01:10:49,640 --> 01:10:52,360
Speaker 8: tie break, but right now all karaz leads the second

1267
01:10:52,360 --> 01:10:56,440
Speaker 8: set over Djokovic five games to four. Remember in the Olympics,

1268
01:10:56,479 --> 01:10:59,160
Speaker 8: it is the best two out of three sets instead

1269
01:10:59,200 --> 01:11:02,080
Speaker 8: of a best three out of five. The US women's

1270
01:11:02,160 --> 01:11:05,120
Speaker 8: volleyball team today swept France three sets to none to

1271
01:11:05,120 --> 01:11:07,400
Speaker 8: finish group play with a two to one record in

1272
01:11:07,479 --> 01:11:10,720
Speaker 8: advance to the quarterfinals. Coming up just over half an

1273
01:11:10,720 --> 01:11:14,040
Speaker 8: hour from now, the US women's basketball team plays its

1274
01:11:14,240 --> 01:11:17,800
Speaker 8: final group game against Germany. On Major League Baseball on

1275
01:11:17,840 --> 01:11:20,880
Speaker 8: Saturday night, the Seattle Mariners rallied from five to nothing

1276
01:11:20,920 --> 01:11:23,439
Speaker 8: down after four and a half to beat the Phillies

1277
01:11:23,479 --> 01:11:25,960
Speaker 8: in ten innings, six to five. Philadelphia now on a

1278
01:11:26,000 --> 01:11:30,320
Speaker 8: six game losing streak. Dodgers victorious at Oakland ten to nothing.

1279
01:11:30,640 --> 01:11:34,040
Speaker 8: Jack Flaherty six scoreless innings in his Dodgers debut with

1280
01:11:34,160 --> 01:11:38,240
Speaker 8: seven strikeouts, and sho Hey o'tani had three stolen bases

1281
01:11:38,439 --> 01:11:39,200
Speaker 8: to join.

1282
01:11:39,080 --> 01:11:42,080
Speaker 2: The thirty to thirty club. Mike and Ryan, thank you

1283
01:11:42,120 --> 01:11:44,760
Speaker 2: so much at Isaac Lowan Crown. See what he's got

1284
01:11:44,760 --> 01:11:48,200
Speaker 2: going on, Chargers, Angel City FC. Make it a push

1285
01:11:48,240 --> 01:11:50,519
Speaker 2: all of that fun stuff. Check it out there on

1286
01:11:50,560 --> 01:11:53,160
Speaker 2: his Twitter feed. Follow Ryan at the Ryan Hollins find

1287
01:11:53,240 --> 01:11:57,040
Speaker 2: me over at Swollen Dome before we hit our break here,

1288
01:11:57,680 --> 01:12:00,400
Speaker 2: mister Hollins for the women's side in a half hour.

1289
01:12:00,400 --> 01:12:03,000
Speaker 2: Should Brianna Stewart just be the point guard? At this point?

1290
01:12:03,240 --> 01:12:05,360
Speaker 2: They're not getting a lot from the guard play, so

1291
01:12:05,400 --> 01:12:07,599
Speaker 2: should it just be a two woman game with her

1292
01:12:07,600 --> 01:12:08,120
Speaker 2: and Wilson?

1293
01:12:09,000 --> 01:12:12,679
Speaker 3: No, listen, man, don't just I didn't want.

1294
01:12:12,520 --> 01:12:14,640
Speaker 2: To blabor what's going on with the guards at this

1295
01:12:14,720 --> 01:12:17,400
Speaker 2: point because I think folks have had a little bit

1296
01:12:17,439 --> 01:12:19,360
Speaker 2: of why isn't Caitlyn Clark here fatigue?

1297
01:12:21,920 --> 01:12:24,000
Speaker 3: I mean, I don't know if you saw, but Don

1298
01:12:24,040 --> 01:12:26,559
Speaker 3: Staley addressed I like what Don said and said, hey,

1299
01:12:27,200 --> 01:12:29,479
Speaker 3: if she had been playing the way she's playing now,

1300
01:12:29,800 --> 01:12:34,760
Speaker 3: there would be no questions there. And you know, you

1301
01:12:34,840 --> 01:12:38,880
Speaker 3: didn't want the Caitlyn Clark show to kind of engulf

1302
01:12:39,040 --> 01:12:41,320
Speaker 3: the change for the women to go. And the women

1303
01:12:41,360 --> 01:12:44,439
Speaker 3: are much further along than our men are, you know

1304
01:12:44,520 --> 01:12:47,680
Speaker 3: when it comes to that competition, because you know a

1305
01:12:47,680 --> 01:12:50,280
Speaker 3: lot of them for half the year go overseas and

1306
01:12:50,320 --> 01:12:52,760
Speaker 3: play against those girls and have the experience.

1307
01:12:53,280 --> 01:12:55,680
Speaker 2: And they do. And at this point, though, you know,

1308
01:12:55,920 --> 01:13:00,240
Speaker 2: it's hard to not see some issues with the way

1309
01:13:00,280 --> 01:13:02,880
Speaker 2: the guards had played through at least this part of

1310
01:13:02,920 --> 01:13:06,120
Speaker 2: the competition. We'll get another chance in a half hour's time.

1311
01:13:06,280 --> 01:13:09,439
Speaker 2: I just like when Stuart brings the ball up and

1312
01:13:09,479 --> 01:13:11,120
Speaker 2: can look over everybody. It's kind of like we were

1313
01:13:11,120 --> 01:13:14,840
Speaker 2: talking about with Durant on the men's side, right, because

1314
01:13:14,840 --> 01:13:16,680
Speaker 2: you got the extra couple of inches, It's like, yeah,

1315
01:13:16,680 --> 01:13:18,880
Speaker 2: I'm gonna shoot over you, but I can also see

1316
01:13:18,880 --> 01:13:22,479
Speaker 2: what's going on. And she's just been a phenomenal through

1317
01:13:22,520 --> 01:13:25,960
Speaker 2: the early rounds here of play. So we'll see what

1318
01:13:26,000 --> 01:13:28,240
Speaker 2: happens in a half hours time. But coming up next

1319
01:13:28,640 --> 01:13:32,439
Speaker 2: here in Los Angeles, great expectations billboards in between all

1320
01:13:32,439 --> 01:13:36,200
Speaker 2: of the lawyer ads. But the quarterback has a giant

1321
01:13:36,280 --> 01:13:38,720
Speaker 2: question mark over his head. Now we'll get into that

1322
01:13:39,000 --> 01:13:43,760
Speaker 2: as we continue on Fox Sports Sunday. Welcome back in

1323
01:13:43,920 --> 01:13:47,360
Speaker 2: Fox Sports Sunday, Fox Sports Radio, Mike Carving alongside Ryan

1324
01:13:47,400 --> 01:13:50,280
Speaker 2: Hollins having a blast feed this morning all sorts of

1325
01:13:50,320 --> 01:13:53,759
Speaker 2: Olympic activities. Remember once upon a time it was rom

1326
01:13:53,800 --> 01:13:58,599
Speaker 2: and shoftly nah, not so fast golf heating up new

1327
01:13:58,680 --> 01:14:01,639
Speaker 2: names atop the leaderboard, including the familiar one when you've

1328
01:14:01,680 --> 01:14:06,599
Speaker 2: got Scheffler atop the lead We watched cycling Ryan Hollins,

1329
01:14:06,600 --> 01:14:10,360
Speaker 2: and we had a giant crash involving a number of

1330
01:14:10,400 --> 01:14:13,680
Speaker 2: the participants, So we'll see if we can get some

1331
01:14:13,760 --> 01:14:18,560
Speaker 2: updated information of how many bicyclists lost their rides or

1332
01:14:18,600 --> 01:14:22,000
Speaker 2: are now woefully behind coming out of that. So so

1333
01:14:22,120 --> 01:14:27,400
Speaker 2: much activity, including the men's final in tennis as well,

1334
01:14:27,400 --> 01:14:30,080
Speaker 2: but turning our attention to the National Football League as

1335
01:14:30,080 --> 01:14:33,040
Speaker 2: we really get into the throes of training camp, a

1336
01:14:33,080 --> 01:14:36,040
Speaker 2: couple of injury issues. We've seen Russell Wilson miss some

1337
01:14:36,160 --> 01:14:41,040
Speaker 2: dates for the Pittsburgh Steelers because of working on the

1338
01:14:41,800 --> 01:14:48,240
Speaker 2: sled hurting himself. There, you've got Geno Smith is out

1339
01:14:48,680 --> 01:14:50,679
Speaker 2: at least for a little while, so Sam Howell gets

1340
01:14:50,680 --> 01:14:52,240
Speaker 2: a chance to run and run with the ones. But

1341
01:14:52,320 --> 01:14:57,880
Speaker 2: here in Los Angeles, planter fasciitis is something everybody's researching.

1342
01:14:57,960 --> 01:15:02,680
Speaker 2: After the ch Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert was diagnosed with

1343
01:15:02,720 --> 01:15:05,519
Speaker 2: the injury and is now in a boot for a

1344
01:15:05,520 --> 01:15:09,800
Speaker 2: couple of weeks before we get towards the open air

1345
01:15:09,920 --> 01:15:14,840
Speaker 2: up for the Chargers. Uh, any history of planiful fascy

1346
01:15:14,880 --> 01:15:19,080
Speaker 2: itis in your world or watching teammates experience this pain?

1347
01:15:19,560 --> 01:15:23,799
Speaker 3: From my standpoint, thank god no, but oh my goodness.

1348
01:15:23,840 --> 01:15:27,679
Speaker 3: I know teammates that had it. And the worst thing

1349
01:15:27,720 --> 01:15:29,920
Speaker 3: about it, it does not go away. You don't get

1350
01:15:29,920 --> 01:15:33,200
Speaker 3: a chance to rest it. And the only way that

1351
01:15:33,280 --> 01:15:34,960
Speaker 3: it goes away is for you to get off your

1352
01:15:34,960 --> 01:15:40,439
Speaker 3: feet and that pain, oh man, and you just kind

1353
01:15:40,439 --> 01:15:42,320
Speaker 3: of played through it. It's just something you're gonna have

1354
01:15:42,439 --> 01:15:46,240
Speaker 3: for an entire season. Hopefully you don't have like a

1355
01:15:46,360 --> 01:15:49,479
Speaker 3: you know, a major flap or so. But oh, it's

1356
01:15:49,600 --> 01:15:52,439
Speaker 3: it's a very real thing. That is something I don't

1357
01:15:52,479 --> 01:15:54,320
Speaker 3: like to see. And you know, those guys right after

1358
01:15:54,320 --> 01:15:58,479
Speaker 3: the game, they'll be, you know, stuck in that in

1359
01:15:58,520 --> 01:16:00,879
Speaker 3: that cold, you know, the cold with a little footpath,

1360
01:16:01,040 --> 01:16:05,400
Speaker 3: and you know, again it's it's nothing you know, you

1361
01:16:05,479 --> 01:16:07,439
Speaker 3: ever want to deal with, tell you that much.

1362
01:16:07,520 --> 01:16:10,040
Speaker 2: Right now, inflammation of the band of tissues along the

1363
01:16:10,080 --> 01:16:16,919
Speaker 2: bottom of the foot, really rest and some massage, stretching,

1364
01:16:16,960 --> 01:16:20,679
Speaker 2: whatever pt go down the normal run of things. We're

1365
01:16:20,680 --> 01:16:24,679
Speaker 2: talking about a quarterback, new coach, great expectations, who joked

1366
01:16:24,680 --> 01:16:27,839
Speaker 2: about it. The last couple of weeks. I got accident

1367
01:16:27,880 --> 01:16:31,800
Speaker 2: attorney billboards and I got Harbaugh and Herbert on all

1368
01:16:31,800 --> 01:16:35,040
Speaker 2: the billboards in southern California right now, trying to hype

1369
01:16:35,080 --> 01:16:38,400
Speaker 2: this season and trying to get that push here in

1370
01:16:38,520 --> 01:16:43,040
Speaker 2: the LA area, particularly bringing in new running backs both

1371
01:16:43,080 --> 01:16:45,720
Speaker 2: those guys that used to be Ravens and changing the

1372
01:16:45,760 --> 01:16:50,599
Speaker 2: identity here. But you have a massive contract for Justin Herbert,

1373
01:16:50,600 --> 01:16:55,440
Speaker 2: and now you've got a huge question about pain threshold

1374
01:16:55,640 --> 01:16:58,800
Speaker 2: because they don't have an established number two behind it.

1375
01:16:58,880 --> 01:17:02,479
Speaker 2: You got and you've got Easton Stick. Stick's been there

1376
01:17:02,520 --> 01:17:06,400
Speaker 2: a while, a couple of years now, but nobody with

1377
01:17:06,800 --> 01:17:10,360
Speaker 2: massive experience. So Herbert is just gonna be curious to

1378
01:17:10,400 --> 01:17:14,000
Speaker 2: see what that pain threshold is because this is one

1379
01:17:14,240 --> 01:17:16,800
Speaker 2: that a lot of weekend Warriors can actually relate to.

1380
01:17:17,240 --> 01:17:19,880
Speaker 2: Oftentimes we have these injuries, Ryan, It's like you start

1381
01:17:19,920 --> 01:17:22,559
Speaker 2: going through and you have these the doctors come on

1382
01:17:22,640 --> 01:17:25,960
Speaker 2: and start giving you all of the insights of It's like, yeah,

1383
01:17:25,960 --> 01:17:28,040
Speaker 2: I don't know, I was never at that level. I

1384
01:17:28,080 --> 01:17:31,720
Speaker 2: don't have that injury plan. A fasciatus. Yeah, you know,

1385
01:17:31,840 --> 01:17:36,599
Speaker 2: either that or maybe they're misdiagnosing gout. If for those

1386
01:17:36,720 --> 01:17:41,160
Speaker 2: armchair warriors as well, too many salted meats, but you know,

1387
01:17:41,280 --> 01:17:45,680
Speaker 2: swollen feet and pain with each step. But if I'm

1388
01:17:45,680 --> 01:17:49,360
Speaker 2: a Chargers fan, I'm suddenly feeling a lot less optimistic

1389
01:17:49,680 --> 01:17:52,040
Speaker 2: about what my year is because week to week I

1390
01:17:52,040 --> 01:17:53,960
Speaker 2: don't know about the mobility of my quarterback.

1391
01:17:55,479 --> 01:17:57,880
Speaker 3: No, it's not fun, I mean, and it's something he

1392
01:17:57,920 --> 01:17:59,920
Speaker 3: should be able to play through. I don't definitely does

1393
01:18:00,200 --> 01:18:03,679
Speaker 3: in the season, but it you know, yeah, it causes

1394
01:18:03,800 --> 01:18:09,000
Speaker 3: major discomfort. And again I do not envy any player

1395
01:18:09,120 --> 01:18:12,800
Speaker 3: who has to go through letter fasciitis. It is. It

1396
01:18:12,880 --> 01:18:16,680
Speaker 3: is painful, dude. It does not get h you know,

1397
01:18:16,760 --> 01:18:20,040
Speaker 3: worse from that standpoint, and there's you know, other levels

1398
01:18:20,040 --> 01:18:23,439
Speaker 3: to it, and I'm not sure, don't quote me on it.

1399
01:18:24,160 --> 01:18:28,120
Speaker 3: If that planner of fascia can develop into like a

1400
01:18:28,640 --> 01:18:32,840
Speaker 3: how would I put it a a stress fracture? I

1401
01:18:32,840 --> 01:18:35,000
Speaker 3: don't know if it can grow into that, I'm not sure.

1402
01:18:35,040 --> 01:18:37,000
Speaker 3: Like again, I don't know if it's about the bone

1403
01:18:37,080 --> 01:18:38,720
Speaker 3: or like you said, I think it's just I think

1404
01:18:38,720 --> 01:18:42,880
Speaker 3: it's just a tissue. But again, nonetheless nothing to be

1405
01:18:42,960 --> 01:18:44,280
Speaker 3: played with at all.

1406
01:18:44,439 --> 01:18:46,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, you would treat them the same at least to

1407
01:18:47,160 --> 01:18:50,679
Speaker 2: lead to some degree, at least in my rudimentary web

1408
01:18:50,760 --> 01:18:55,280
Speaker 2: MD Google searches this morning. So you know, I'm not

1409
01:18:55,320 --> 01:18:57,040
Speaker 2: a doctor, but I try to pretend to be one

1410
01:18:57,040 --> 01:18:58,720
Speaker 2: every once in a while here, maybe I'll go get

1411
01:18:58,760 --> 01:19:01,960
Speaker 2: a PhD just so like myself doctor, and then people

1412
01:19:02,000 --> 01:19:05,760
Speaker 2: can guess from there. But yeah, it's it's more concerning

1413
01:19:05,840 --> 01:19:07,880
Speaker 2: because you do have a new coaching staff and a

1414
01:19:07,920 --> 01:19:10,479
Speaker 2: new offense system, and now you have to be in

1415
01:19:10,560 --> 01:19:13,439
Speaker 2: operation shut down for several weeks. I think that's the

1416
01:19:13,479 --> 01:19:18,120
Speaker 2: more concerning thing, because you're always chasing the chiefs, and

1417
01:19:18,160 --> 01:19:22,280
Speaker 2: then folks would have to believe on some level that

1418
01:19:22,320 --> 01:19:25,000
Speaker 2: Sean Payton starts to turn things in the proper direction

1419
01:19:25,400 --> 01:19:28,720
Speaker 2: they're in Denver. And then I'll refrain from making the

1420
01:19:28,720 --> 01:19:32,800
Speaker 2: obligatory Raiders joke out of deference to our friends that

1421
01:19:32,880 --> 01:19:35,479
Speaker 2: are Raider fans that may or may not be listening

1422
01:19:35,560 --> 01:19:38,799
Speaker 2: this morning. I salute you with my oversized cup of coffee.

1423
01:19:38,880 --> 01:19:41,640
Speaker 2: But it's fun to talk to NFL. These are the unfortunate.

1424
01:19:41,880 --> 01:19:45,000
Speaker 2: The only stories that break through right now are injuries

1425
01:19:45,040 --> 01:19:50,040
Speaker 2: and off field issues, contract fights and whatever else. Anything else.

1426
01:19:50,080 --> 01:19:52,400
Speaker 2: On the field, you might get a little bit of hey,

1427
01:19:52,439 --> 01:19:56,000
Speaker 2: this guy's shining, but everything else is Please don't show

1428
01:19:56,080 --> 01:19:58,960
Speaker 2: up on the blotterer here because it's odds are it's

1429
01:19:59,000 --> 01:20:01,080
Speaker 2: an injury or something that's gonna make me feel sad.

1430
01:20:01,080 --> 01:20:06,120
Speaker 2: About my squad. Right, it's that hurry up and wait

1431
01:20:06,160 --> 01:20:09,920
Speaker 2: thing that month before that first game that we're so

1432
01:20:10,000 --> 01:20:13,640
Speaker 2: excited to see. But it's like Hungry Hungry Hippos and

1433
01:20:13,720 --> 01:20:16,519
Speaker 2: the Simpsons. The waiting game stinks, So you go and

1434
01:20:16,520 --> 01:20:19,360
Speaker 2: find yourself a board game to play. He's Ryan Hollins

1435
01:20:19,400 --> 01:20:21,960
Speaker 2: at the Ryan Hollins. I'm by Carmen here, Fox Sports Sunday,

Speaker 2: Maybe you can extend your prime. We'll tell you how. Next.

1438

Speaker 1: You're listening to Fox Sports Radio, Gradis and welcome in

1439
01:20:34,560 --> 01:20:36,800

1440
01:20:36,880 --> 01:20:42,960
Speaker 1: Fox Sports Sunday Olympic coverage wall to wall Women's national

1441
01:20:43,000 --> 01:20:44,160
Speaker 1: team basketball.

1442
01:20:44,600 --> 01:20:47,320
Speaker 2: Addition, they'll tip off in just a couple of minutes

1443
01:20:47,560 --> 01:20:51,240
Speaker 2: from now. So much else going on and golf and

1444
01:20:51,320 --> 01:20:53,599
Speaker 2: tennis and everything else. But what's going on in your world?

1445
01:20:53,680 --> 01:20:56,040
Speaker 2: Ryan Hollins, how are you this fine morning?

1446
01:20:56,320 --> 01:20:57,920
Speaker 3: Doing great? Brother? How you been doing?

1447
01:20:58,479 --> 01:21:03,120
Speaker 2: Hustle is real? You know, we're head to head in

1448
01:21:03,200 --> 01:21:06,320
Speaker 2: a wall to wall coverage. I've got a whiteboard with

1449
01:21:06,360 --> 01:21:08,759
Speaker 2: all the fantasy content that I need to start drawing

1450
01:21:08,840 --> 01:21:11,720
Speaker 2: up because it is that time of year. To get

1451
01:21:11,720 --> 01:21:16,280
Speaker 2: those rankings and everything together, and daunting tasks because first off,

1452
01:21:16,560 --> 01:21:18,600
Speaker 2: there's a lot of guys that change teams. The other is,

1453
01:21:18,800 --> 01:21:22,040
Speaker 2: I'm knee deep in my Phil Steele College Football Guide.

1454
01:21:23,160 --> 01:21:25,080
Speaker 2: I don't know if you're familiar with the format of

1455
01:21:25,080 --> 01:21:27,200
Speaker 2: the magazine, but it's one of those that you need

1456
01:21:27,200 --> 01:21:30,000
Speaker 2: a magnifying glass because it's so chock full of information

1457
01:21:30,080 --> 01:21:33,920
Speaker 2: on every page that the font might have actually been

1458
01:21:33,960 --> 01:21:38,400
Speaker 2: invented by him, that's how small it is. But you

1459
01:21:38,439 --> 01:21:41,640
Speaker 2: want stats, you want data points and whatever else, and

1460
01:21:41,680 --> 01:21:44,920
Speaker 2: they wait until the absolute last minute, so most of

1461
01:21:44,960 --> 01:21:48,479
Speaker 2: your transfer stuff is done right as opposed to if

1462
01:21:48,520 --> 01:21:50,240
Speaker 2: you publish it a little bit earlier. None of these

1463
01:21:50,240 --> 01:21:53,400
Speaker 2: guys are on the same team, the old fantasy magazine

1464
01:21:53,600 --> 01:21:55,920
Speaker 2: problem when I used to contribute to those. But we're

1465
01:21:55,920 --> 01:21:58,599
Speaker 2: here live in the tyrack dot com Fox Sports Radio studios.

Speaker 2: everything he's got, cooking all the analysis, getting ready and

1473
01:22:19,200 --> 01:22:21,920
Speaker 2: warming up and enjoying a little downtown before he gets

1474
01:22:21,920 --> 01:22:26,120
Speaker 2: back to the planet. Houston Rockets and coverage of a

1475
01:22:26,120 --> 01:22:28,479
Speaker 2: team that's going to be pretty exciting on the come.

1476
01:22:28,600 --> 01:22:30,719
Speaker 2: Last year, I had a couple of new component parts.

1477
01:22:31,040 --> 01:22:33,920
Speaker 2: I mean, got to be some excitement there, not only

1478
01:22:34,240 --> 01:22:38,280
Speaker 2: you know the CJ. Stroud Express, oh Man, because that's

1479
01:22:38,280 --> 01:22:40,920
Speaker 2: got to be a whole other world right now. Expectations

1480
01:22:40,960 --> 01:22:42,759
Speaker 2: off the charts with what's been assembled.

1481
01:22:43,960 --> 01:22:46,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, listen, man, the Texans are one of those teams

1482
01:22:46,880 --> 01:22:49,040
Speaker 3: you're you're going to be talking about right now for CJ.

1483
01:22:49,280 --> 01:22:52,519
Speaker 3: And while he's under you know, a team friendly deal.

1484
01:22:52,600 --> 01:22:56,120
Speaker 3: This is the time to win, right This is when

1485
01:22:56,160 --> 01:22:59,639
Speaker 3: you win. And that's why, you know the Texans kind

1486
01:22:59,640 --> 01:23:01,800
Speaker 3: of going all in. This is the time. So yes,

1487
01:23:01,920 --> 01:23:07,479
Speaker 3: exciting time in Houston Rockets, getting better astros not quite

1488
01:23:07,520 --> 01:23:10,040
Speaker 3: their normal sales, but they're always going to be just fine.

1489
01:23:10,600 --> 01:23:12,080
Speaker 3: There's no worries there.

1490
01:23:12,120 --> 01:23:15,080
Speaker 2: But it's competitive baseball. It's not nineteen losses in a row.

1491
01:23:16,240 --> 01:23:18,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, I guess you're the guy that doesn't want to

1492
01:23:18,120 --> 01:23:18,959
Speaker 3: hear that right.

1493
01:23:19,360 --> 01:23:21,839
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't want to hear about other people's belly

1494
01:23:21,880 --> 01:23:25,160
Speaker 2: ache and of oh we had a bad week. Oh

1495
01:23:25,240 --> 01:23:29,600
Speaker 2: we're struggling. Oh, let me juggle my World Series trophies

1496
01:23:29,640 --> 01:23:31,679
Speaker 2: and laugh at you. And right now they are one

1497
01:23:31,720 --> 01:23:34,760
Speaker 2: game behind the Seattle Mariners. Remember they actually chased them

1498
01:23:34,840 --> 01:23:38,439
Speaker 2: down from that ten game deficit to take the lead.

1499
01:23:38,600 --> 01:23:44,160
Speaker 2: A briefly update from the Olympics. Novak Djokovic is your

1500
01:23:44,160 --> 01:23:48,760
Speaker 2: gold medal winner over Carlos Alcarez, so that one is

1501
01:23:48,800 --> 01:23:51,439
Speaker 2: a final. We're getting towards the end of it. Here

1502
01:23:51,640 --> 01:23:55,560
Speaker 2: on the golf side, Scheffler and Fleetwood tied at nineteen

1503
01:23:55,880 --> 01:24:01,880
Speaker 2: under too, ahead of Matsuyama and John Rahm. Fantastic finishes

1504
01:24:02,040 --> 01:24:06,280
Speaker 2: all around. You know me, like a kid on the

1505
01:24:06,320 --> 01:24:11,320
Speaker 2: first day of school, I'd rather be anywhere else. Then,

1506
01:24:12,240 --> 01:24:14,920
Speaker 2: you know, I should say, like, look, nothing more than

1507
01:24:15,040 --> 01:24:19,120
Speaker 2: everything coming at me fast and furiously, because it's a

1508
01:24:19,120 --> 01:24:21,880
Speaker 2: new opportunity for greatness. And that's what we're having today,

1509
01:24:22,880 --> 01:24:26,280
Speaker 2: because it's metal winning time, final night in the pool.

1510
01:24:26,400 --> 01:24:29,439
Speaker 2: Later on we'll have some of that swimming medals to

1511
01:24:29,479 --> 01:24:32,599
Speaker 2: be handed out. Brionna did give me the update. Only

1512
01:24:32,880 --> 01:24:36,479
Speaker 2: two cyclists were injured in that pile up at the Olympics,

1513
01:24:36,479 --> 01:24:39,640
Speaker 2: so that was that's good to hear that it's a

1514
01:24:39,720 --> 01:24:42,200
Speaker 2: small number, and most got back up on the bikes

1515
01:24:42,200 --> 01:24:45,240
Speaker 2: and we're riding again, so you know, we got to

1516
01:24:45,439 --> 01:24:47,560
Speaker 2: keep you apprized of everything that's going on. Head on

1517
01:24:47,600 --> 01:24:50,360
Speaker 2: a swivel with everything. And one of the goats we

1518
01:24:50,479 --> 01:24:53,880
Speaker 2: talked about some own biles a little bit earlier, one

1519
01:24:53,920 --> 01:24:57,439
Speaker 2: of the names for this Olympics. But also not shutting

1520
01:24:57,439 --> 01:25:02,000
Speaker 2: the door entirely. On twenty twenty, Ryan Hollins trying to

1521
01:25:02,040 --> 01:25:04,920
Speaker 2: extend it, you know where they talk about age and

1522
01:25:05,320 --> 01:25:07,400
Speaker 2: she even jokes saying, well, you know, I'm kind of

1523
01:25:07,439 --> 01:25:14,720
Speaker 2: old in her post event commentary. But I did like this.

1524
01:25:14,760 --> 01:25:17,000
Speaker 2: This was one of her tweets. Quote, you guys really

1525
01:25:17,040 --> 01:25:19,680
Speaker 2: got to stop asking athletes what's next after they win

1526
01:25:19,720 --> 01:25:22,479
Speaker 2: a medal at the Olympics. It's the old go to

1527
01:25:22,960 --> 01:25:25,639
Speaker 2: kind of the talk about. But she left the door

1528
01:25:25,680 --> 01:25:29,439
Speaker 2: open of competing for twenty twenty eight. Quote, never say never.

1529
01:25:29,840 --> 01:25:32,840
Speaker 2: The next Olympics is at home, so you just never know.

1530
01:25:33,240 --> 01:25:36,280
Speaker 2: But I am getting really old. She's twenty seven.

1531
01:25:38,439 --> 01:25:41,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, for gymnastics, it is I remember at UCLA a

1532
01:25:41,120 --> 01:25:43,920
Speaker 3: lot of the some of the Olympians would come and

1533
01:25:43,960 --> 01:25:47,880
Speaker 3: it was like, like retirement they're taking there, you know,

1534
01:25:47,960 --> 01:25:50,840
Speaker 3: they're they're collegiate athletes that they're taking their retirement. Well,

1535
01:25:51,040 --> 01:25:51,479
Speaker 3: you know, or.

1536
01:25:51,560 --> 01:25:54,439
Speaker 2: It's weird, right, you know it comes though.

1537
01:25:54,760 --> 01:25:59,040
Speaker 3: Hey, yeah, absolutely, no, I get it. And you know,

1538
01:25:59,120 --> 01:26:01,400
Speaker 3: for Simone vile Man, I just really like that she's

1539
01:26:01,439 --> 01:26:05,280
Speaker 3: being celebrated, she's having fun. You know, gymnastics been really

1540
01:26:05,320 --> 01:26:07,960
Speaker 3: a fun story. She's the goat of the sport. So

1541
01:26:09,320 --> 01:26:12,320
Speaker 3: I love that random little off topic Mike. I wonder

1542
01:26:12,360 --> 01:26:15,400
Speaker 3: because I think we all sit back with this mindset.

1543
01:26:16,080 --> 01:26:19,200
Speaker 3: What Olympic sport do you watch and you go, I

1544
01:26:19,240 --> 01:26:21,680
Speaker 3: think if I did anything that would be it? Is

1545
01:26:21,720 --> 01:26:25,040
Speaker 3: there anything you watch and you're like, all right, that's

1546
01:26:25,040 --> 01:26:26,000
Speaker 3: where I win my medal?

1547
01:26:27,200 --> 01:26:27,920
Speaker 2: Oh I don't know.

1548
01:26:28,920 --> 01:26:31,080
Speaker 3: Oh you gotta have I'm a big fella. You gotta

1549
01:26:31,120 --> 01:26:35,479
Speaker 3: have something. There's something you watch and it's like, yeah,

1550
01:26:35,520 --> 01:26:35,920
Speaker 3: that's me.

1551
01:26:36,160 --> 01:26:39,240
Speaker 2: Like once upon a time, I mean, probably could have

1552
01:26:39,280 --> 01:26:42,800
Speaker 2: been trying to compete with my man in the shot put,

1553
01:26:42,840 --> 01:26:46,679
Speaker 2: but how he's a three time gold medalist, right, short squat,

1554
01:26:47,120 --> 01:26:50,759
Speaker 2: you know, power, powerful base that maybe I could launch

1555
01:26:50,800 --> 01:26:53,840
Speaker 2: one there, But you know, we got because the men

1556
01:26:53,920 --> 01:26:57,600
Speaker 2: were shut out in an individual gold here up until yesterday.

1557
01:26:58,439 --> 01:27:01,599
Speaker 2: Finally got one in shooting, and then we had the

1558
01:27:02,040 --> 01:27:05,880
Speaker 2: for Krauser the third straight gold medal in the shot put.

1559
01:27:06,120 --> 01:27:08,960
Speaker 2: So I'm not beating him most likely. I mean, he's

1560
01:27:09,000 --> 01:27:12,559
Speaker 2: a legend, but that that's a sport I could maybe

1561
01:27:12,560 --> 01:27:16,280
Speaker 2: have competed in, maybe wrestling back in the day. I

1562
01:27:16,280 --> 01:27:17,880
Speaker 2: don't know. I'm trying. I'm trying to think of where

1563
01:27:17,880 --> 01:27:20,400
Speaker 2: this might have worked. Chris has one for Is this

1564
01:27:20,439 --> 01:27:21,519
Speaker 2: for me or for you? For you?

1565
01:27:21,640 --> 01:27:24,719
Speaker 3: For you nervous?

1566
01:27:25,200 --> 01:27:25,479
Speaker 6: No?

1567
01:27:25,479 --> 01:27:29,439
Speaker 5: No, I think I think you'd have. The downside is

1568
01:27:29,439 --> 01:27:31,280
Speaker 5: we'd have to put a team around you here. But

1569
01:27:32,080 --> 01:27:36,600
Speaker 5: absolutely you could be actually bringing America to prominence in handball.

1570
01:27:36,800 --> 01:27:39,560
Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, we do have handball on here.

1571
01:27:41,120 --> 01:27:43,680
Speaker 5: I love handball because it is just I think when

1572
01:27:43,720 --> 01:27:46,479
Speaker 5: my friends described as a sport a pe teacher makes

1573
01:27:46,520 --> 01:27:49,160
Speaker 5: up in gym class. And yet at the same time,

1574
01:27:49,320 --> 01:27:52,559
Speaker 5: like having been to Sydney to the handball stuff. The

1575
01:27:52,640 --> 01:27:56,280
Speaker 5: Germans who I was there with, absolutely took this incredibly seriously.

1576
01:27:56,400 --> 01:27:58,759
Speaker 5: But I think you'd make a fine handball player.

1577
01:27:58,880 --> 01:28:01,479
Speaker 2: I appreciate that. Well, what do you want to do, Chris,

1578
01:28:01,479 --> 01:28:02,640
Speaker 2: what's your what?

1579
01:28:03,280 --> 01:28:06,800
Speaker 5: I did taekwondo and several martial arts when I was

1580
01:28:06,880 --> 01:28:10,760
Speaker 5: in like you know, elementary school and junior junior high

1581
01:28:10,760 --> 01:28:13,960
Speaker 5: and I know taekwondo's coming up here. I love watching judo.

1582
01:28:14,080 --> 01:28:15,559
Speaker 2: I don't think i'd be good at it at all.

1583
01:28:16,840 --> 01:28:19,599
Speaker 5: I don't think I have the reflexes to have done

1584
01:28:19,640 --> 01:28:21,320
Speaker 5: table tennis, but I would have liked to try.

1585
01:28:22,240 --> 01:28:24,680
Speaker 2: How about you, Hollins, Is table tennis there, because I

1586
01:28:24,680 --> 01:28:27,000
Speaker 2: mean you could really dominate the size and reach.

1587
01:28:27,680 --> 01:28:30,160
Speaker 3: No, I'd been no good. I've been no good to

1588
01:28:30,200 --> 01:28:33,840
Speaker 3: the USFA and table tennis. I think my safest sport

1589
01:28:33,920 --> 01:28:35,360
Speaker 3: was basketball, and we'll keep it there.

1590
01:28:35,479 --> 01:28:37,240
Speaker 2: But what what would you you know if you had

1591
01:28:37,280 --> 01:28:37,880
Speaker 2: a second one?

1592
01:28:38,120 --> 01:28:38,880
Speaker 3: Oh? Oh?

1593
01:28:39,040 --> 01:28:41,599
Speaker 2: I mean well, because I mean obviously basketball, because yes,

1594
01:28:41,680 --> 01:28:44,920
Speaker 2: you played you nineteen, I got it. I'll add to

1595
01:28:44,960 --> 01:28:46,559
Speaker 2: your intros for the next hour.

1596
01:28:47,000 --> 01:28:50,120
Speaker 3: Let's clarify the the handball, because there's the handball where

1597
01:28:50,120 --> 01:28:51,760
Speaker 3: they're hitting the hand against the wall, and then there's

1598
01:28:51,800 --> 01:28:53,559
Speaker 3: like this like rugby basketball deal.

1599
01:28:53,600 --> 01:28:55,839
Speaker 2: So you know, this is what we're talking about. What's

1600
01:28:55,920 --> 01:28:56,439
Speaker 2: actually in.

1601
01:28:56,400 --> 01:28:59,120
Speaker 5: The Yeah, this thing looks like a combo of basketball

1602
01:28:59,120 --> 01:29:01,040
Speaker 5: and like us with your hands.

1603
01:29:01,240 --> 01:29:03,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, a little bit of rugby kind of like there's

1604
01:29:03,200 --> 01:29:04,000
Speaker 2: some contacts.

1605
01:29:04,080 --> 01:29:07,599
Speaker 3: So yeah, I gotta confess I've had dreams about myself

1606
01:29:07,640 --> 01:29:09,679
Speaker 3: competing in that rugby handball?

1607
01:29:10,160 --> 01:29:10,679
Speaker 2: Is that right?

1608
01:29:10,720 --> 01:29:11,320
Speaker 3: This kind?

1609
01:29:11,720 --> 01:29:15,240
Speaker 2: I like, our match would be tremendous with your h

1610
01:29:15,640 --> 01:29:16,320
Speaker 2: with your length.

1611
01:29:16,520 --> 01:29:18,080
Speaker 3: I don't think it would be fair. I just I

1612
01:29:18,080 --> 01:29:21,280
Speaker 3: wouldn't even see the guys and I'd be like whipping

1613
01:29:21,520 --> 01:29:24,479
Speaker 3: shots in you know, like I yeah, I now, I

1614
01:29:24,479 --> 01:29:27,120
Speaker 3: don't want to take away from the sport, but it

1615
01:29:27,240 --> 01:29:29,280
Speaker 3: is one that I watch and go wow. As a

1616
01:29:29,280 --> 01:29:31,519
Speaker 3: basketball player, just kind of run and jump over somebody

1617
01:29:31,600 --> 01:29:34,080
Speaker 3: or like two dribbles or you know, then you take

1618
01:29:34,080 --> 01:29:34,840
Speaker 3: a step. Yeah.

1619
01:29:35,080 --> 01:29:37,839
Speaker 5: Yeah, Why can't we get the US to compete in handball?

1620
01:29:37,920 --> 01:29:39,720
Speaker 2: How about that we get a second life for some

1621
01:29:39,800 --> 01:29:40,920
Speaker 2: of these NBA players.

1622
01:29:41,000 --> 01:29:43,519
Speaker 5: Yeah, like we get we get rugby seven's. Americans do,

1623
01:29:43,760 --> 01:29:46,000
Speaker 5: like we're not great at full rugby for the Rugby

1624
01:29:46,000 --> 01:29:48,080
Speaker 5: World Cup, but like rugby sevens both you know, the

1625
01:29:48,120 --> 01:29:50,439
Speaker 5: women's took bronze for the first time history, and like

1626
01:29:50,479 --> 01:29:53,960
Speaker 5: the men's compete fairly well in rugby sevens because you've

1627
01:29:54,000 --> 01:29:57,000
Speaker 5: got some of those football players. I just you gotta

1628
01:29:57,000 --> 01:29:58,400
Speaker 5: put a handball team together here.

1629
01:29:59,120 --> 01:30:01,160
Speaker 3: I don't think we even know like how the sport

1630
01:30:01,160 --> 01:30:03,280
Speaker 3: has played. That's the that's the major problem. We don't

1631
01:30:03,280 --> 01:30:04,639
Speaker 3: even we wouldn't even know where to start.

1632
01:30:04,720 --> 01:30:06,920
Speaker 2: I'll find the for Dummies book, We'll go through it.

1633
01:30:07,240 --> 01:30:11,439
Speaker 3: I I definitely think that that handball is a sport

1634
01:30:11,520 --> 01:30:13,920
Speaker 3: that I could the rugby kind of you know, just

1635
01:30:13,960 --> 01:30:16,400
Speaker 3: stiff arm a couple guys get some shot, Like I

1636
01:30:16,720 --> 01:30:19,080
Speaker 3: think I could do it. I do. I feel I'd

1637
01:30:19,120 --> 01:30:20,120
Speaker 3: be I'd be great there.

1638
01:30:20,240 --> 01:30:22,559
Speaker 2: I dig that in my younger days, I when I

1639
01:30:22,880 --> 01:30:26,679
Speaker 2: visited Ireland a couple of weeks ago, the the Gaelic

1640
01:30:26,720 --> 01:30:30,879
Speaker 2: football looked like something that, you know, kind of rugby ish,

1641
01:30:31,280 --> 01:30:34,040
Speaker 2: you know, we talk about, you know, the innovations and

1642
01:30:34,160 --> 01:30:37,360
Speaker 2: alterations to things that maybe a younger me, when I

1643
01:30:37,360 --> 01:30:42,040
Speaker 2: still had my knees intact and the meat hadn't gotten me,

1644
01:30:42,160 --> 01:30:45,520
Speaker 2: that maybe maybe I could have been that guy, Ryan Hollins.

1645
01:30:46,160 --> 01:30:49,360
Speaker 2: You had some speed, you had, okay, So my dad

1646
01:30:49,360 --> 01:30:53,080
Speaker 2: had ball, Yeah I had. I was pretty good in

1647
01:30:53,120 --> 01:30:55,920
Speaker 2: the short burst, so I was a perfect offensive lineman

1648
01:30:56,479 --> 01:30:59,240
Speaker 2: or working around the line of scrimmage, you know, as

1649
01:30:59,360 --> 01:31:02,640
Speaker 2: a linebacker, or crashing crashing the the a and the

1650
01:31:02,640 --> 01:31:06,160
Speaker 2: b gaps. Now beyond that. Now, now, if I got

1651
01:31:06,200 --> 01:31:07,720
Speaker 2: to chase you down, it's gonna be a rough one.

1652
01:31:09,040 --> 01:31:10,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, let's put together a handball team.

1653
01:31:10,760 --> 01:31:13,360
Speaker 2: All right, let's go. Let's see if we can find

1654
01:31:13,360 --> 01:31:13,959
Speaker 2: a sponsor.

1655
01:31:14,280 --> 01:31:17,000
Speaker 3: I never had the skill, but clearly volleyball I would

1656
01:31:17,000 --> 01:31:19,599
Speaker 3: have been really good at that. I'm big and I can,

1657
01:31:19,680 --> 01:31:22,439
Speaker 3: I'm mobile. That would have been a sport there built.

1658
01:31:22,320 --> 01:31:23,920
Speaker 2: Seems like you would have gotten down to the beach

1659
01:31:23,960 --> 01:31:25,719
Speaker 2: to do that a little bit while at UCLA.

1660
01:31:25,800 --> 01:31:28,880
Speaker 3: Know, yeah, I just had zero skill when it comes

1661
01:31:28,880 --> 01:31:31,880
Speaker 3: Oh okay, I have zero coordination. That could it would

1662
01:31:31,880 --> 01:31:33,880
Speaker 3: be I mean I could probably block with the best

1663
01:31:33,880 --> 01:31:34,120
Speaker 3: of them.

1664
01:31:34,120 --> 01:31:36,920
Speaker 2: But wouldn't that have been good for you know, really

1665
01:31:37,000 --> 01:31:41,320
Speaker 2: practicing you know, the lobs and throwing it down potentially.

1666
01:31:41,400 --> 01:31:44,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, No, absolutely, I had some you know, it's a

1667
01:31:44,280 --> 01:31:50,840
Speaker 3: basketball development. No, no, no, it translates. It definitely translates as.

1668
01:31:50,680 --> 01:31:54,120
Speaker 2: We go back to Budinger and his exploits a little

1669
01:31:54,120 --> 01:31:57,920
Speaker 2: bit earlier. But yeah, some obile's not ruling it out. Look,

1670
01:31:57,960 --> 01:32:01,120
Speaker 2: I'm always a very big proponent of if there is

1671
01:32:01,160 --> 01:32:05,040
Speaker 2: still interested in you and they want to put the

1672
01:32:05,040 --> 01:32:08,840
Speaker 2: the jersey on you or in this case, the the

1673
01:32:08,880 --> 01:32:13,080
Speaker 2: country's logo and everything you want to have, your pin exchanges,

1674
01:32:13,120 --> 01:32:15,680
Speaker 2: et cetera. And you think you've got another run in you,

1675
01:32:16,880 --> 01:32:19,840
Speaker 2: why not run it out to its natural end? Right?

1676
01:32:19,920 --> 01:32:22,599
Speaker 2: It's like for any athlete. Yeah, there are times where

1677
01:32:22,600 --> 01:32:25,360
Speaker 2: all right, maybe it's time to be a backup, or

1678
01:32:25,400 --> 01:32:28,280
Speaker 2: maybe you know father time has caught you. But until

1679
01:32:28,280 --> 01:32:31,400
Speaker 2: they actually take the jersey away and the phone stops ringing,

1680
01:32:32,160 --> 01:32:33,880
Speaker 2: I think I'd want to extend it as long as

1681
01:32:33,880 --> 01:32:34,280
Speaker 2: I could.

1682
01:32:36,840 --> 01:32:39,720
Speaker 3: Yeah. No, And here's the thing too. With a lot

1683
01:32:39,760 --> 01:32:42,400
Speaker 3: of the Olympic athletes, you know they need support. But

1684
01:32:42,720 --> 01:32:44,960
Speaker 3: I could assume for a guy like Chase Budding, Jermys

1685
01:32:45,000 --> 01:32:48,560
Speaker 3: made you know, good money, and he's saying, hey, I

1686
01:32:48,840 --> 01:32:51,519
Speaker 3: got time to train or play or like and you

1687
01:32:51,600 --> 01:32:57,959
Speaker 3: know what for me, those in your two sport athlete,

1688
01:32:58,560 --> 01:33:01,559
Speaker 3: that second sport is like your love, like you're fun,

1689
01:33:01,760 --> 01:33:05,400
Speaker 3: Like basket was my love. But like like when I

1690
01:33:05,560 --> 01:33:08,240
Speaker 3: like track and field, I did I did triple jump

1691
01:33:08,240 --> 01:33:11,000
Speaker 3: and I was well, I guess clearly my bad. I

1692
01:33:11,240 --> 01:33:13,000
Speaker 3: could have been an Olympic high jumper, but you know,

1693
01:33:13,120 --> 01:33:15,760
Speaker 3: putting on a lot of weight, you know, I don't

1694
01:33:15,760 --> 01:33:18,040
Speaker 3: think that that would have helped. That was probably two

1695
01:33:18,080 --> 01:33:21,559
Speaker 3: hundred and ten pounds back the last time I did,

1696
01:33:21,760 --> 01:33:26,000
Speaker 3: you know, high jumper, triple jump. But you know, I

1697
01:33:26,040 --> 01:33:28,479
Speaker 3: would have been you know, hey, you could make it

1698
01:33:28,479 --> 01:33:29,960
Speaker 3: to the Olympics, and it's like, well, I think the

1699
01:33:30,080 --> 01:33:32,680
Speaker 3: NBA might be a little better, you know, but I was.

1700
01:33:33,120 --> 01:33:37,760
Speaker 3: I was. You know, people saw that potential there and

1701
01:33:38,160 --> 01:33:40,160
Speaker 3: you know, the the excitement.

1702
01:33:40,479 --> 01:33:43,719
Speaker 2: You know, well, I want to tie some own biles

1703
01:33:43,760 --> 01:33:46,120
Speaker 2: and not hanging it up like that, you know, never

1704
01:33:46,200 --> 01:33:50,600
Speaker 2: say never kind of commentary to a quote from a

1705
01:33:50,680 --> 01:33:53,920
Speaker 2: quarterback still seeking a contract. A couple other guys got paid,

1706
01:33:54,280 --> 01:33:57,760
Speaker 2: but some comments that I don't know that I necessarily

1707
01:33:58,200 --> 01:34:02,160
Speaker 2: agree with on his side, but from simone files, maybe

1708
01:34:02,320 --> 01:34:06,479
Speaker 2: a decision of to the larger picture, I'll make it

1709
01:34:06,520 --> 01:34:09,840
Speaker 2: make sense. Ryan Hollins Mike harmon Fox Sports Sunday Here

1746
01:36:21,080 --> 01:36:24,960
Speaker 2: together a bit someon biles, you know, talking about longevity

1747
01:36:25,000 --> 01:36:29,880
Speaker 2: and potentially making a return for twenty eight in the

1748
01:36:29,960 --> 01:36:33,759
Speaker 2: United States, and already we're seeing all the different plans

1749
01:36:33,800 --> 01:36:38,479
Speaker 2: to implement in different facilities as they'll be implemented and such.

1750
01:36:38,800 --> 01:36:42,840
Speaker 2: I wanted to tire to Dak Prescott the ongoing quarterback

1751
01:36:42,920 --> 01:36:48,080
Speaker 2: contract negotiations, and we've heard maybe some offers being floated

1752
01:36:48,120 --> 01:36:51,120
Speaker 2: to both he and CD Lamb. But Dak had spoken

1753
01:36:51,360 --> 01:36:55,400
Speaker 2: about his contract and he threw in a line about

1754
01:36:55,439 --> 01:36:58,680
Speaker 2: setting up the next to where I always hang a

1755
01:36:58,720 --> 01:37:01,759
Speaker 2: star on that Ryan to a degree when it comes

1756
01:37:01,800 --> 01:37:06,720
Speaker 2: to the NFL, etc. For Simone Biles, you know her

1757
01:37:06,800 --> 01:37:11,240
Speaker 2: participation is a good thing for all of the sports,

1758
01:37:11,320 --> 01:37:14,160
Speaker 2: and all of women's sports because the eyes, the brands

1759
01:37:14,439 --> 01:37:19,200
Speaker 2: and everything associated that there's more people involved that way. Right,

1760
01:37:19,240 --> 01:37:21,320
Speaker 2: when we talk about star power, we've looked at the

1761
01:37:21,320 --> 01:37:27,240
Speaker 2: television ratings and certainly Lidecki and Biles, Shakari Richardson three

1762
01:37:27,320 --> 01:37:30,920
Speaker 2: of the big names that really stand out and help

1763
01:37:30,960 --> 01:37:33,960
Speaker 2: move the needle and certainly bring eyeballs and all of

1764
01:37:34,040 --> 01:37:36,880
Speaker 2: those brand partners to the table. For Dak Prescott, when

1765
01:37:36,920 --> 01:37:40,040
Speaker 2: we get to quarterback contracts, or we look at the

1766
01:37:40,160 --> 01:37:43,599
Speaker 2: NBA and what might happen with the Knicks, right, Brunson

1767
01:37:44,400 --> 01:37:49,320
Speaker 2: looking and deferring in theory is how it's termed all

1768
01:37:49,360 --> 01:37:51,640
Speaker 2: that money to signed the new deal he did with

1769
01:37:51,720 --> 01:37:55,400
Speaker 2: the Knicks, that maybe Julius Randall would follow suit. But

1770
01:37:55,560 --> 01:37:58,080
Speaker 2: Dak Prescott, I go back to the old Tom Brady

1771
01:37:58,120 --> 01:38:00,599
Speaker 2: model of all right, whether the money actually gets used

1772
01:38:00,640 --> 01:38:03,200
Speaker 2: on other players, we can talk about if Patrick Mahomes

1773
01:38:03,200 --> 01:38:06,200
Speaker 2: address that a bit. In the end, the machine of

1774
01:38:06,280 --> 01:38:09,480
Speaker 2: what other quarterbacks are gonna get paid is not dependent

1775
01:38:09,520 --> 01:38:14,320
Speaker 2: at all on what Dak Prescott's contract is at all. Hey,

1776
01:38:14,400 --> 01:38:15,599
Speaker 2: can you do what Dak did?

1777
01:38:16,040 --> 01:38:16,120
Speaker 3: No?

1778
01:38:16,560 --> 01:38:19,480
Speaker 2: Okay, now what are we talking about in terms of contracts?

1779
01:38:19,720 --> 01:38:21,920
Speaker 2: So I like it in theory. It's a nice thing

1780
01:38:21,960 --> 01:38:23,879
Speaker 2: to say, but I don't think it's reality.

1781
01:38:25,080 --> 01:38:28,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, if you're Dak, you gotta take your money and

1782
01:38:29,200 --> 01:38:31,160
Speaker 3: you got to demand it. You gotta play hardball. That's

1783
01:38:31,160 --> 01:38:36,559
Speaker 3: part of the NFL. And Jerry Jones, he knows Jay

1784
01:38:36,680 --> 01:38:38,680
Speaker 3: Jones doesn't want to go in with the young a

1785
01:38:38,720 --> 01:38:42,080
Speaker 3: young quarterback. He doesn't want to start over. So that's

1786
01:38:42,120 --> 01:38:44,639
Speaker 3: in the favor of Dak. You know that that's something

1787
01:38:44,760 --> 01:38:47,360
Speaker 3: that he can kind of, you know, hang his hat

1788
01:38:47,400 --> 01:38:50,760
Speaker 3: on and and he's gonna get his money. And here's

1789
01:38:50,800 --> 01:38:53,840
Speaker 3: the thing with Dak Prescott. No, maybe the wins haven't

1790
01:38:53,880 --> 01:38:56,360
Speaker 3: been there, but as far as quarterback play, he can't

1791
01:38:56,400 --> 01:38:59,479
Speaker 3: deny what he's done. There's there's not a lot out there.

1792
01:39:00,080 --> 01:39:02,800
Speaker 3: And I tell you one thing. You know, if you're

1793
01:39:02,840 --> 01:39:05,880
Speaker 3: going without quarterback or you're gonna try to see what

1794
01:39:05,920 --> 01:39:09,120
Speaker 3: life is like without Dak, it ain't gonna be good.

1795
01:39:09,240 --> 01:39:11,719
Speaker 3: And I don't think that Jerry is in a position

1796
01:39:11,760 --> 01:39:14,559
Speaker 3: where he wants to start over. Otherwise he would have Well.

1797
01:39:14,400 --> 01:39:16,400
Speaker 2: It's always the fun part, right, You've got proof of

1798
01:39:16,439 --> 01:39:20,240
Speaker 2: concept regular season and we can talk about postseason failure.

1799
01:39:20,240 --> 01:39:22,120
Speaker 2: You still got to get there. You still got to

1800
01:39:22,120 --> 01:39:24,799
Speaker 2: put up numbers, You still have to pile up wins.

1801
01:39:25,080 --> 01:39:27,400
Speaker 2: And this is where it gets difficult. We extend that

1802
01:39:27,479 --> 01:39:31,320
Speaker 2: out to coaches and what they do season to season. McCarthy.

1803
01:39:31,880 --> 01:39:33,960
Speaker 2: I mean, you're talking twelve wins a year in the

1804
01:39:34,000 --> 01:39:36,880
Speaker 2: regular season. But at the end of the day, much

1805
01:39:36,920 --> 01:39:40,000
Speaker 2: like we've talked about with the men's national team, it's

1806
01:39:40,000 --> 01:39:43,800
Speaker 2: about winning. Now. Not everybody's going to hoist a Super

1807
01:39:43,800 --> 01:39:47,400
Speaker 2: Bowl trophy, but you got to at least extend into

1808
01:39:47,439 --> 01:39:51,400
Speaker 2: the playoffs. Otherwise it's a well, that's fine and good.

1809
01:39:51,760 --> 01:39:53,479
Speaker 2: How do we go from point B to point C.

1810
01:39:53,840 --> 01:39:56,280
Speaker 2: I go back to old Marvin Lewis and what they

1811
01:39:56,320 --> 01:40:01,200
Speaker 2: were doing in Cincinnati, right long, perennial, laughing doc bottom feeder,

1812
01:40:01,280 --> 01:40:03,320
Speaker 2: kind of like my White Sox and baseball. Now, yeah,

1813
01:40:03,320 --> 01:40:05,240
Speaker 2: I gotta take I gotta take the low hanging fruit,

1814
01:40:05,360 --> 01:40:07,959
Speaker 2: all right, every day, Like when we've got Steve Desager

1815
01:40:08,520 --> 01:40:11,519
Speaker 2: during the week with Smith and I. No matter where,

1816
01:40:11,640 --> 01:40:13,639
Speaker 2: it's either at the start of the update or the end,

1817
01:40:13,800 --> 01:40:17,719
Speaker 2: it's gonna be a dig and the White Sox like, yeah, okay, okay,

1818
01:40:17,960 --> 01:40:21,400
Speaker 2: But that was the Bengals, And then they had a

1819
01:40:21,520 --> 01:40:26,519
Speaker 2: run with our colleague TJ. Huschmanzada, Chad Ocho, Cinco, Rudy Johnson,

1820
01:40:26,560 --> 01:40:29,519
Speaker 2: Carson Palmer where they got to the playoffs a couple

1821
01:40:29,560 --> 01:40:31,840
Speaker 2: of times, but they never got over. So at some

1822
01:40:31,920 --> 01:40:34,040
Speaker 2: point that hard decision of all right, is this the

1823
01:40:34,040 --> 01:40:37,600
Speaker 2: guy or not has to be made, and certainly with

1824
01:40:37,600 --> 01:40:39,840
Speaker 2: with Jerry we saw it with Jason Garrett. You know,

1825
01:40:39,920 --> 01:40:44,759
Speaker 2: sometimes it goes a couple extra years. Quarterback position. Dak's

1826
01:40:44,800 --> 01:40:48,000
Speaker 2: been there since twenty sixteen. It's had a tremendous run.

1827
01:40:48,160 --> 01:40:50,920
Speaker 2: Playoff success hasn't been there. But to your point, where

1828
01:40:50,960 --> 01:40:52,880
Speaker 2: else are you gonna go? You want to go back

1829
01:40:52,880 --> 01:40:56,200
Speaker 2: into the draft, because not often do other free agent

1830
01:40:56,320 --> 01:41:00,880
Speaker 2: quarterbacks come up unless their team is just they're done

1831
01:41:00,880 --> 01:41:03,840
Speaker 2: and not worth the cash. Right it's you know, Kirk

1832
01:41:03,920 --> 01:41:06,960
Speaker 2: Cousins situation doesn't happen a ton one of the greatest

1833
01:41:06,960 --> 01:41:10,120
Speaker 2: businessmen in sports history. Books and movies will be made

1834
01:41:10,280 --> 01:41:12,759
Speaker 2: about his life and his ability to pile up many,

1835
01:41:13,080 --> 01:41:17,080
Speaker 2: many millions of dollars again, without grandiose playoff success, but

1836
01:41:17,760 --> 01:41:21,360
Speaker 2: is a guy that is still desirable for Dak Prescott.

1837
01:41:21,439 --> 01:41:23,200
Speaker 2: He may not be your cup of tea, But how

1838
01:41:23,200 --> 01:41:25,280
Speaker 2: many guys are you really taking over him? If you

1839
01:41:25,320 --> 01:41:27,439
Speaker 2: start going through the rankings and I'm not just talking

1840
01:41:27,439 --> 01:41:30,000
Speaker 2: about the wishing and hoping of this guy is going

1841
01:41:30,040 --> 01:41:32,840
Speaker 2: to be great, that's a pretty short list right now

1842
01:41:32,840 --> 01:41:33,799
Speaker 2: in today's NFL.

1843
01:41:35,320 --> 01:41:39,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, there there aren't many, and Dak knows it.

1844
01:41:40,080 --> 01:41:42,760
Speaker 3: You know, when you start looking at the comparables and

1845
01:41:42,880 --> 01:41:45,920
Speaker 3: the numbers, you know, the Dallas stands canna say, well,

1846
01:41:45,920 --> 01:41:49,800
Speaker 3: we haven't won. But again when you start comparing Dak,

1847
01:41:50,200 --> 01:41:53,560
Speaker 3: his numbers are there, their production is there. You cannot

1848
01:41:53,680 --> 01:41:58,599
Speaker 3: deny it. So he's gonna get paid. And again, this

1849
01:41:58,680 --> 01:42:01,919
Speaker 3: is not the air of quarterback play. We've been spoiled.

1850
01:42:01,960 --> 01:42:05,120
Speaker 3: I mean for almost what like two decades, two decades

1851
01:42:05,120 --> 01:42:07,840
Speaker 3: if we still had Tom Brady going up until you

1852
01:42:07,880 --> 01:42:12,160
Speaker 3: know what a season ago. You know where you know

1853
01:42:12,439 --> 01:42:15,200
Speaker 3: Dak Prescott is he's one of the guys. He's one

1854
01:42:15,200 --> 01:42:18,160
Speaker 3: of the best, and he's he's going to command money

1855
01:42:18,200 --> 01:42:20,160
Speaker 3: they cannot afford to move forward from him.

1856
01:42:20,240 --> 01:42:22,200
Speaker 2: Yeah. The biggest thing, you know, for me was the

1857
01:42:22,560 --> 01:42:25,080
Speaker 2: comment about I've got to look at you know what

1858
01:42:25,120 --> 01:42:27,599
Speaker 2: it does for the next guy, because again I don't

1859
01:42:27,600 --> 01:42:31,240
Speaker 2: think that's true. I don't think just because your name

1860
01:42:31,280 --> 01:42:35,559
Speaker 2: becomes you're the highest on average quarterback for this week,

1861
01:42:36,880 --> 01:42:39,799
Speaker 2: that's that's not gonna matter. You'll be supplanted very fast.

1862
01:42:39,840 --> 01:42:43,360
Speaker 2: Whether you sign for a dollar, fifty or sixty million dollars,

1863
01:42:43,479 --> 01:42:47,600
Speaker 2: your contract is inconsequential to what happens to other quarterbacks

1864
01:42:47,760 --> 01:42:51,600
Speaker 2: and other teams. They are thirty two individually run businesses

1865
01:42:51,680 --> 01:42:54,680
Speaker 2: under the NFL umbrella. The other fun is always when

1866
01:42:54,720 --> 01:42:58,559
Speaker 2: we talk about salary cap of how much manipulation can

1867
01:42:58,640 --> 01:43:02,400
Speaker 2: be done and change is made and money's moved around

1868
01:43:03,040 --> 01:43:06,320
Speaker 2: to get you where you need to be. So anytime

1869
01:43:06,360 --> 01:43:09,400
Speaker 2: a team cries poor, I just chuckle, because that means

1870
01:43:09,400 --> 01:43:12,080
Speaker 2: you just need a little bit of creative accountants in

1871
01:43:12,120 --> 01:43:15,759
Speaker 2: the room and a little bit of flexibility with the players,

1872
01:43:16,760 --> 01:43:19,160
Speaker 2: and in the end they're better off because it usually

1873
01:43:19,200 --> 01:43:23,080
Speaker 2: results in a much larger signing bonus and instant gratification,

1874
01:43:23,479 --> 01:43:25,120
Speaker 2: which isn't that what we all want?

1875
01:43:26,400 --> 01:43:28,639
Speaker 3: And here's the thing, let me know if you agree

1876
01:43:28,680 --> 01:43:32,400
Speaker 3: with this. To me, this perfectly sums up Dak Prescott.

1877
01:43:33,360 --> 01:43:35,280
Speaker 3: You're not gonna win with Dak, but you ain't gonna

1878
01:43:35,320 --> 01:43:39,920
Speaker 3: lose with him. And if he's got a good run game,

1879
01:43:40,120 --> 01:43:43,040
Speaker 3: the play actions working, the defense is doing their job,

1880
01:43:43,400 --> 01:43:45,559
Speaker 3: you can win with them. You can win with them,

1881
01:43:45,640 --> 01:43:50,640
Speaker 3: and you can't say that about every quarterback. So for

1882
01:43:51,080 --> 01:43:54,320
Speaker 3: Dak Prescott, I think that he knows that his money

1883
01:43:54,360 --> 01:43:57,120
Speaker 3: is gonna be there. There shouldn't you know, there shouldn't

1884
01:43:57,200 --> 01:43:57,880
Speaker 3: be a question.

1885
01:43:58,240 --> 01:43:59,920
Speaker 2: Well, and if it's not in Dallas, there'll be plenty

1886
01:43:59,920 --> 01:44:03,559
Speaker 2: of other suitors. Right, there's a number of teams that

1887
01:44:03,600 --> 01:44:06,360
Speaker 2: have drafted quarterbacks in the last two to three years,

1888
01:44:07,000 --> 01:44:11,479
Speaker 2: and we see the life cycle getting shorter and shorter. Right,

1889
01:44:11,600 --> 01:44:14,519
Speaker 2: We used to see you get to run out your

1890
01:44:14,600 --> 01:44:17,960
Speaker 2: rookie contract. That's no longer the case, especially if you

1891
01:44:18,000 --> 01:44:20,920
Speaker 2: don't translate it into a couple extra wins. So you're

1892
01:44:20,920 --> 01:44:23,000
Speaker 2: back at the table and being able to draft in

1893
01:44:23,040 --> 01:44:26,160
Speaker 2: a high position again. You can just shuffle up and deal,

1894
01:44:26,880 --> 01:44:31,240
Speaker 2: but winning time certainly building time a little bit easier

1895
01:44:31,439 --> 01:44:33,519
Speaker 2: when you're on those rookie deals. We go back to

1896
01:44:33,520 --> 01:44:36,800
Speaker 2: the Russell Wilson model. Who's now being pressed. I know

1897
01:44:36,880 --> 01:44:40,720
Speaker 2: he's in the pole position. Per Mike Tomlin there in

1898
01:44:40,760 --> 01:44:44,040
Speaker 2: Pittsburgh despite missing some time, and everybody doing the oohs

1899
01:44:44,160 --> 01:44:47,000
Speaker 2: and ohs of Justin Fields, no question about it. The

1900
01:44:47,080 --> 01:44:50,679
Speaker 2: other thing that bears watching, Tyreek Hill restructured his contract

1901
01:44:50,760 --> 01:44:54,799
Speaker 2: ninety million dollar deal guarantees him sixty five million dollars

1902
01:44:54,840 --> 01:44:58,040
Speaker 2: over the next three seasons. So right alongside Dak, you've

1903
01:44:58,040 --> 01:45:00,560
Speaker 2: got Cedee Lamb sitting there going all right, when do

1904
01:45:00,600 --> 01:45:02,639
Speaker 2: you get to cut me off a check? You want

1905
01:45:02,640 --> 01:45:05,160
Speaker 2: to get back to work and winning, don't you? Don't you?

1906
01:45:07,520 --> 01:45:09,920
Speaker 2: I love it, I mean I love how the feet

1907
01:45:09,920 --> 01:45:13,000
Speaker 2: gets put to the fire here with the restructurings and

1908
01:45:13,160 --> 01:45:16,759
Speaker 2: just the pinball like numbers because you know, like we were

1909
01:45:16,720 --> 01:45:19,760
Speaker 2: talking about before, we see the headlines, right, we see

1910
01:45:19,800 --> 01:45:24,840
Speaker 2: the the dollars, and especially now a lot of emphasis

1911
01:45:24,880 --> 01:45:28,040
Speaker 2: on what the guarantees are because players are getting a

1912
01:45:28,080 --> 01:45:31,240
Speaker 2: lot more guaranteed up front, not not a lot of

1913
01:45:31,960 --> 01:45:35,040
Speaker 2: a ton of fully guaranteed deals. We're not NBA like

1914
01:45:35,200 --> 01:45:38,599
Speaker 2: or Major League Baseball like, but we're starting to see

1915
01:45:38,640 --> 01:45:42,800
Speaker 2: more giant cash payouts earlier. And then we'll get to

1916
01:45:42,840 --> 01:45:47,519
Speaker 2: the next CBA and perhaps that that grows and that

1917
01:45:47,560 --> 01:45:49,920
Speaker 2: those are some of the fighting points along with the

1918
01:45:49,960 --> 01:45:54,599
Speaker 2: health plans and everything else moving forward, but curiosity out

1919
01:45:54,600 --> 01:45:58,600
Speaker 2: of the NFL, no question about it. Injuries and contracts,

1920
01:45:58,680 --> 01:46:01,320
Speaker 2: the two things were really walking in the preseason. Not

1921
01:46:01,400 --> 01:46:03,720
Speaker 2: to mention the depth charts. Don't worry. Fantasy stuff is

1922
01:46:03,760 --> 01:46:08,679
Speaker 2: coming at Swollen Dome, all the fantasy content you'll need,

1923
01:46:08,720 --> 01:46:12,519
Speaker 2: and then some and then Byron ill eventually start fighting

1924
01:46:12,560 --> 01:46:15,840
Speaker 2: each other over the fantasy rankings as it comes to

1925
01:46:15,880 --> 01:46:19,760
Speaker 2: the Eyewatcher Flex podcast. More information on that to come

1926
01:46:19,800 --> 01:46:21,400
Speaker 2: in short order. But you know what we can do now,

1927
01:46:21,920 --> 01:46:24,400
Speaker 2: We can go to our man who's on the scene,

1928
01:46:24,720 --> 01:46:28,160
Speaker 2: who's been watching everything head on his swivel. It's Isaac

1929
01:46:28,280 --> 01:46:32,680
Speaker 2: Loewenkron at the news desk, and he's very attentive to

1930
01:46:32,800 --> 01:46:36,639
Speaker 2: one individual competition what he got going on there.

1931
01:46:36,680 --> 01:46:40,160
Speaker 8: Ava That is the final at men's golf, where Scotty

1932
01:46:40,280 --> 01:46:45,559
Speaker 8: Scheffler has just essentially clenched the gold medal. He shot

1933
01:46:45,600 --> 01:46:49,519
Speaker 8: an incredible nine under par sixty two in the final

1934
01:46:49,600 --> 01:46:52,760
Speaker 8: round today. He is in the clubhouse at nineteen under

1935
01:46:52,800 --> 01:46:57,720
Speaker 8: par overall. Tommy Fleetwood, who was eighteen under par overall

1936
01:46:57,920 --> 01:47:02,679
Speaker 8: one shot back, had one last gasp attempt to tie

1937
01:47:02,800 --> 01:47:06,080
Speaker 8: Scheffler and force a three hole playoff with a shot

1938
01:47:06,120 --> 01:47:09,519
Speaker 8: from thirty four yards out. He missed it just seconds ago,

1939
01:47:09,960 --> 01:47:14,360
Speaker 8: So Scotty Scheffler has essentially clinched the gold medal in

1940
01:47:14,680 --> 01:47:18,160
Speaker 8: men's golf. All that remains to make it official John

1941
01:47:18,280 --> 01:47:20,400
Speaker 8: Rahm would need to have a hole in one on

1942
01:47:20,520 --> 01:47:24,920
Speaker 8: the par four eighteenth hole, but assuming there is theoretically

1943
01:47:25,000 --> 01:47:28,240
Speaker 8: a chance. But for all intents and purposes, Scotty Scheffler

1944
01:47:28,280 --> 01:47:31,080
Speaker 8: has just won the gold medal in men's golf at

1945
01:47:31,120 --> 01:47:34,840
Speaker 8: the Olympics again with an incredible nine under sixty two

1946
01:47:35,320 --> 01:47:36,439
Speaker 8: in the final round.

1947
01:47:36,640 --> 01:47:37,080
Speaker 2: Today.

1948
01:47:37,520 --> 01:47:41,080
Speaker 8: The US women's basketball team and Germany are tied at

1949
01:47:41,160 --> 01:47:43,560
Speaker 8: nineteen with eight minutes and forty eight seconds left to

1950
01:47:43,560 --> 01:47:46,759
Speaker 8: play and counting in the second quarter. The US women's

1951
01:47:46,760 --> 01:47:50,560
Speaker 8: team's final game of group play. Novak Djokovic won the

1952
01:47:50,600 --> 01:47:53,120
Speaker 8: gold medal in men's tennis today with a seven to

1953
01:47:53,240 --> 01:47:57,520
Speaker 8: six to seven to sixth victory over Carlos Alkaraz, Djokovic's

1954
01:47:57,640 --> 01:48:01,840
Speaker 8: first career gold medal. Earlier today, the US women's volleyball

1955
01:48:01,880 --> 01:48:06,120
Speaker 8: team swept France three sets to none to finish group

1956
01:48:06,200 --> 01:48:09,479
Speaker 8: play with a record of two and one and to

1957
01:48:09,520 --> 01:48:12,640
Speaker 8: advance to the quarterfinals and John Raum indeed did not

1958
01:48:13,000 --> 01:48:17,040
Speaker 8: make all on the par for eighteen, so it's official.

1959
01:48:17,360 --> 01:48:21,040
Speaker 8: Scotty Scheffler has won the gold medal in men's golf

1960
01:48:21,120 --> 01:48:21,880
Speaker 8: at the Olympics.

1961
01:48:21,880 --> 01:48:24,200
Speaker 2: Fellows back to you, not that I want Scheffler to lose,

1962
01:48:24,200 --> 01:48:26,839
Speaker 2: but wouldn't a whole one one be you know, the ultimate,

1963
01:48:27,920 --> 01:48:31,400
Speaker 2: you know, second place finish? All right, we were talking

1964
01:48:31,439 --> 01:48:35,720
Speaker 2: about down distance, margin of victory. Oh the guy had

1965
01:48:35,800 --> 01:48:39,519
Speaker 2: to have an ace on eighteen to beat me. Crazy.

1966
01:48:39,560 --> 01:48:42,320
Speaker 2: Thanks Ilo at Isaac Lowencron where you find him in

1967
01:48:42,360 --> 01:48:46,560
Speaker 2: the Twitter verse. Outside of that whole arrest and chaos

1968
01:48:47,240 --> 01:48:50,880
Speaker 2: all those those weeks ago for Scottie Scheffler back at

1969
01:48:50,920 --> 01:48:53,680
Speaker 2: the PGA Championship, Ryan Hollins, been a hell of a

1970
01:48:53,760 --> 01:48:54,840
Speaker 2: year for him.

1971
01:48:55,320 --> 01:48:59,320
Speaker 3: Yeah. Absolutely, And wait a way to cap things off,

1972
01:48:59,439 --> 01:49:00,360
Speaker 3: that's pretty special.

1973
01:49:00,760 --> 01:49:04,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, just insane, but great images coming out of the

1974
01:49:04,840 --> 01:49:10,639
Speaker 2: the golf competition as they finish off the day US

1975
01:49:10,640 --> 01:49:13,759
Speaker 2: women's team, as Ilo said, up and going against Germany.

1976
01:49:14,080 --> 01:49:16,120
Speaker 2: Here's a quote that I thought I'd run past you

1977
01:49:16,200 --> 01:49:19,240
Speaker 2: real quick. That Well, let's see what your take is

1978
01:49:19,240 --> 01:49:22,799
Speaker 2: on it, Tony Parker. In addition to you know, whatever

1979
01:49:22,920 --> 01:49:28,800
Speaker 2: that run was during the opening ceremonies, hobbled knees, or

1980
01:49:29,000 --> 01:49:31,160
Speaker 2: just speed walking like he was in the mall. I'm

1981
01:49:31,160 --> 01:49:36,200
Speaker 2: not sure he compared Victor wembin Yama to Lebron James quote,

1982
01:49:36,400 --> 01:49:39,040
Speaker 2: he's not bothered by the pressure or the expectation. There's

1983
01:49:39,080 --> 01:49:42,640
Speaker 2: a conversation with Yahoo. He's a bit like Lebron. The

1984
01:49:42,680 --> 01:49:45,320
Speaker 2: only one who compared is so much expectation before his

1985
01:49:45,400 --> 01:49:48,240
Speaker 2: arrival Lebron James and Victor. The way he played his

1986
01:49:48,320 --> 01:49:50,760
Speaker 2: rookie season with the Spurs, he was unbelievable and so

1987
01:49:50,840 --> 01:49:52,840
Speaker 2: I hope it translates to a lot of championships with

1988
01:49:52,920 --> 01:49:56,280
Speaker 2: Spurs and translates to a lot of medals for French basketball.

1989
01:49:59,520 --> 01:50:05,200
Speaker 3: Tony's the way off by it. If you hear Wimby talk,

1990
01:50:06,160 --> 01:50:10,920
Speaker 3: he has this like maturity and you know, much like

1991
01:50:11,280 --> 01:50:13,240
Speaker 3: I don't know if people really know, like since Lebron

1992
01:50:13,360 --> 01:50:15,280
Speaker 3: was like fourteen or fifteen years old, like he was

1993
01:50:15,320 --> 01:50:18,519
Speaker 3: being groomed to be Lebron, he was playing pickup. I

1994
01:50:18,600 --> 01:50:20,920
Speaker 3: spoke with Ron our Tests on the podcast, and you

1995
01:50:20,960 --> 01:50:24,400
Speaker 3: know he talked about Lebron was sixteen years old, running

1996
01:50:24,400 --> 01:50:28,080
Speaker 3: the NBA guys at the runs and he's playing pick

1997
01:50:28,120 --> 01:50:30,200
Speaker 3: up against these all stars and he was going pound

1998
01:50:30,240 --> 01:50:32,120
Speaker 3: for pound with them and everybody was freaking out. So

1999
01:50:32,160 --> 01:50:35,920
Speaker 3: the NBA world new and was grooming Lebron before he

2000
01:50:35,960 --> 01:50:38,479
Speaker 3: got to that scene, much like Victor wimbin Yama. You know,

2001
01:50:38,720 --> 01:50:41,960
Speaker 3: the French in the NBA had identified Okay, this this

2002
01:50:42,080 --> 01:50:46,760
Speaker 3: kid is an unbelievable talent. So it's his rookie year, yes,

2003
01:50:47,080 --> 01:50:49,880
Speaker 3: but he'd been prepared, he'd been playing at the level.

2004
01:50:49,880 --> 01:50:52,240
Speaker 3: He'd been seeing guys and you know we've been seeing

2005
01:50:52,280 --> 01:50:54,160
Speaker 3: we're the last to kind of see the clips and

2006
01:50:54,200 --> 01:50:57,160
Speaker 3: the highlights and going okay, this don't this don't look right,

2007
01:50:57,320 --> 01:51:01,040
Speaker 3: but you know everybody else do. Tony saying he knew.

2008
01:51:01,200 --> 01:51:05,680
Speaker 3: And that's why Wimby is come in with this like maturity.

2009
01:51:05,760 --> 01:51:09,240
Speaker 3: You know, you don't see him, you know, necessarily trying

2010
01:51:09,280 --> 01:51:11,720
Speaker 3: to figure things out. He's kind of like, yeah, I

2011
01:51:11,720 --> 01:51:12,439
Speaker 3: got a job to do.

2012
01:51:13,040 --> 01:51:15,160
Speaker 2: But you know what, it's also you go to the

2013
01:51:15,280 --> 01:51:18,920
Speaker 2: right fit in terms of a coach, right, that's gonna

2014
01:51:18,960 --> 01:51:21,680
Speaker 2: help in terms of that transition. Not to take any

2015
01:51:21,720 --> 01:51:24,360
Speaker 2: away from what he's done personally and the growth and

2016
01:51:24,680 --> 01:51:27,680
Speaker 2: development to get to this point, but you know, you

2017
01:51:27,720 --> 01:51:30,920
Speaker 2: want to be dropped into the Spurs or someplace with

2018
01:51:31,040 --> 01:51:35,920
Speaker 2: stability rights as a young player with those kind of expectations,

2019
01:51:35,920 --> 01:51:37,439
Speaker 2: because you know a lot of that noise is going

2020
01:51:37,520 --> 01:51:39,519
Speaker 2: to get muted as best it can.

2021
01:51:40,800 --> 01:51:43,559
Speaker 3: Yeah, and beyond stability, you know there's a track record there,

2022
01:51:43,680 --> 01:51:45,960
Speaker 3: all right, there's a track record. Pop Pop knows who

2023
01:51:46,000 --> 01:51:48,559
Speaker 3: he is. They know who they are, and it's right.

2024
01:51:48,600 --> 01:51:51,240
Speaker 2: It's not a young coach trying to find his way

2025
01:51:51,920 --> 01:51:54,200
Speaker 2: or you know, he's going to pin his hopes on

2026
01:51:54,280 --> 01:51:58,519
Speaker 2: what Victor Wembin Yahama becomes like his entire career, No Pop,

2027
01:51:58,560 --> 01:52:02,760
Speaker 2: Scott is his history with Parker and those guys, that

2028
01:52:03,280 --> 01:52:07,200
Speaker 2: legacy being secured. But yeah, the maturity beyond the years,

2029
01:52:07,200 --> 01:52:10,840
Speaker 2: sure you recognize that. I mean, look, Luka Dacas, you

2030
01:52:10,880 --> 01:52:15,479
Speaker 2: know to a similar degree, was a guy internationally right

2031
01:52:15,640 --> 01:52:20,120
Speaker 2: years in playing playing with bron ass Men before he

2032
01:52:20,200 --> 01:52:22,840
Speaker 2: came to the NBA. Is there still some learning to

2033
01:52:22,880 --> 01:52:26,160
Speaker 2: be done? Is Michael Finley still the blame for their collapse? Yes?

2034
01:52:26,200 --> 01:52:29,519
Speaker 2: He is. That's right. Shouldn't have taken the beer, Finley.

2035
01:52:31,320 --> 01:52:34,120
Speaker 2: He's Ryan Hollins. I'm by Carmen Fox Sports Sunday, Fox

2064
01:54:03,160 --> 01:54:04,920

Speaker 2: uh Summer Slam, you know, a lot of turns and

2068
01:54:16,479 --> 01:54:20,040
Speaker 2: factions divided and the return of Roman reigns, which is

2069
01:54:20,040 --> 01:54:22,320
Speaker 2: always good for business.

2070
01:54:22,320 --> 01:54:22,880

01:54:28,840 --> 01:54:31,320
Speaker 2: Miz one of the all time greats and one of

2074
01:54:31,400 --> 01:54:34,320
Speaker 2: the few in the sports world. I can connect with

2075
01:54:34,360 --> 01:54:37,520
Speaker 2: my older daughter through why because he was part of

2076
01:54:37,560 --> 01:54:42,480
Speaker 2: all of those competitions on MTV, the Challenge and road

2077
01:54:42,560 --> 01:54:45,200
Speaker 2: Rules and all of that stuff. Yeah, right, that's where

2078
01:54:45,200 --> 01:54:49,640
Speaker 2: he got a lot of his run I forget which

2079
01:54:49,840 --> 01:54:52,280
Speaker 2: the Big Brother or one of those as well, So

2080
01:54:52,840 --> 01:54:56,200
Speaker 2: she she knows him from that world, and so then

2081
01:54:56,240 --> 01:54:57,720
Speaker 2: I can say, well, you know what, we kind of

2082
01:54:57,760 --> 01:55:01,280
Speaker 2: know him friend of friends is in the wrestling world.

2083
01:55:01,360 --> 01:55:02,840
Speaker 2: So there you go, and she just looks at me

2084
01:55:02,880 --> 01:55:05,320
Speaker 2: like I'm nuts. And then you take her to a

2085
01:55:05,360 --> 01:55:07,840
Speaker 2: live event because I got to take her to WrestleMania,

2086
01:55:07,920 --> 01:55:11,000
Speaker 2: So she's sold. She likes the women's division, so she's

2087
01:55:11,000 --> 01:55:13,160
Speaker 2: a little salty that Bailey lost. But you know what,

2088
01:55:13,360 --> 01:55:15,920
Speaker 2: you gotta tell a story. You gotta keep telling the story.

2089
01:55:16,000 --> 01:55:19,640
Speaker 2: So that in the background as well, we've got Germany

2090
01:55:20,200 --> 01:55:23,720
Speaker 2: and the US US now up ten with three minutes

2091
01:55:23,800 --> 01:55:27,200
Speaker 2: remaining in the second quarter, so exhibiting a little bit

2092
01:55:27,200 --> 01:55:30,800
Speaker 2: of dominance and distance here as it were. We talked

2093
01:55:30,800 --> 01:55:32,840
Speaker 2: a little bit about the Hall of Fame earlier, and

2094
01:55:34,000 --> 01:55:36,920
Speaker 2: I do get the website and you know that needs

2095
01:55:36,960 --> 01:55:40,280
Speaker 2: to be retooled, and that's the find your Wins. But

2096
01:55:40,720 --> 01:55:43,360
Speaker 2: Julius Pepper's in his Hall of Fame speech not only

2097
01:55:43,360 --> 01:55:45,560
Speaker 2: given the nod to Michael Jordan, who was in attendance.

2098
01:55:45,600 --> 01:55:47,640
Speaker 2: I mean, how great is that? Like I'd like to

2099
01:55:47,640 --> 01:55:51,520
Speaker 2: thank my family, I'd like to thank all my coaches. Oh,

2100
01:55:51,560 --> 01:55:54,400
Speaker 2: by the way, there's my guy, Michael Jordan's sitting over there.

2101
01:55:54,880 --> 01:55:57,240
Speaker 2: That's the guy that got me to Chapel Hill. That's

2102
01:55:57,280 --> 01:56:00,720
Speaker 2: pretty good thing. He also gave us some words to

2103
01:56:00,760 --> 01:56:01,160
Speaker 2: live by.

2104
01:56:01,680 --> 01:56:03,320
Speaker 4: Now I'm going to close with what being a Hall

2105
01:56:03,360 --> 01:56:05,880
Speaker 4: of Famer means to me. It's not about how many

2106
01:56:05,920 --> 01:56:08,440
Speaker 4: touchdowns you scored or how many Super Bowl rings you have,

2107
01:56:09,240 --> 01:56:11,840
Speaker 4: even though those things are nice. It really comes down

2108
01:56:11,880 --> 01:56:14,640
Speaker 4: to who you are to core and what's in your heart.

2109
01:56:14,840 --> 01:56:17,640
Speaker 4: Are you resilient, Do you stand tall in the face

2110
01:56:17,680 --> 01:56:20,720
Speaker 4: of adversity when things get tough or do you quit?

2111
01:56:21,240 --> 01:56:24,680
Speaker 4: Do you acknowledge other people's contributions to your success or

2112
01:56:24,680 --> 01:56:26,800
Speaker 4: do you make it all about you. Being a Hall

2113
01:56:26,880 --> 01:56:29,720
Speaker 4: of Famer is one of my crown and achievements, but

2114
01:56:29,800 --> 01:56:33,360
Speaker 4: it extends far beyond pro football. It extends to my family,

2115
01:56:33,680 --> 01:56:36,960
Speaker 4: and it extends to my daily life. Everyone can't play

2116
01:56:37,000 --> 01:56:40,200
Speaker 4: in the NFL, and everyone can't have a bus hend

2117
01:56:40,240 --> 01:56:42,840
Speaker 4: can but everyone can be a Hall of Famer in

2118
01:56:42,880 --> 01:56:45,560
Speaker 4: your own life. You can be a Hall of Fame dad,

2119
01:56:46,080 --> 01:56:50,800
Speaker 4: a Hall of Fame student, teacher, spouse, coworker, friend, whatever

2120
01:56:50,840 --> 01:56:51,200
Speaker 4: it is.

2121
01:56:51,800 --> 01:56:52,480
Speaker 3: Whatever it is.

Speaker 3: that don't know, yeah, he came in on the basketball

2147
01:58:08,040 --> 01:58:13,240

2148
01:58:13,480 --> 01:58:16,160
Speaker 3: Julius Pepper, is one of the greatest athletes that we've

2149
01:58:16,240 --> 01:58:18,480
Speaker 3: ever seen any sport. And you go, look at a

2150
01:58:18,560 --> 01:58:21,680
Speaker 3: man six seven, could move, could jump, could run. You

2151
01:58:21,880 --> 01:58:25,440
Speaker 3: probably could have placed them anywhere in sporting. He would

2152
01:58:25,440 --> 01:58:28,000
Speaker 3: have had success. Look one of my favorite athletes, I

2153
01:58:28,080 --> 01:58:30,640

2156
01:58:39,000 --> 01:58:40,760
Speaker 3: of Fame, but one of my favorite guys.

2157
01:58:40,840 --> 01:58:42,760
Speaker 2: Well, you know me, I like to latch onto guys

2158
01:58:42,800 --> 01:58:46,720
Speaker 2: that have some success in my city, or at least

2159
01:58:46,760 --> 01:58:48,960
Speaker 2: a cup of coffee, you know, Ken Griffy Junior White

2160
01:58:49,000 --> 01:58:53,640
Speaker 2: Sox Hall of Famer, Julius Peppers Bears Hall of Famer.

2161
01:58:53,720 --> 01:58:58,680
Speaker 2: It's my weekend, McMichael Devin Hester. Wait because you know what,

2162
01:58:58,800 --> 01:59:00,520
Speaker 2: at least for a day, I was at the block

2163
01:59:00,520 --> 01:59:03,680
Speaker 2: out the damn White Sox all right. Last thing. The

2164
01:59:03,760 --> 01:59:09,840
Speaker 2: South sudan As an organization they're calling Shenanigans on the

2165
01:59:09,880 --> 01:59:13,800
Speaker 2: Olympic officiating and everything else after a loss to Serbia,

2166
01:59:13,920 --> 01:59:18,640
Speaker 2: saying that they were a hoodwinked. Basically, thirty one free

2167
01:59:18,640 --> 01:59:21,720
Speaker 2: throws we shot six. I was coach ivy after the game.

2168
01:59:21,760 --> 01:59:26,560
Speaker 2: He was not happy that, saying that Nikola Jokic and

2169
01:59:26,760 --> 01:59:30,000
Speaker 2: the Serbian squad got preferential treatment all the way down

2170
01:59:30,040 --> 01:59:31,640
Speaker 2: to the coaches and the coaches box.

2171
01:59:32,200 --> 01:59:34,800
Speaker 3: Hey man, shout out to Royal. I'll be seeing him

2172
01:59:34,800 --> 01:59:36,920
Speaker 3: this year. He was a static, did a great job,

2173
01:59:36,960 --> 01:59:40,200
Speaker 3: and you got to demand that respect he's doing. He's

2174
01:59:40,280 --> 01:59:44,600
Speaker 3: doing the right thing. And you know what an Olympic officiating,

2175
01:59:44,760 --> 01:59:48,800
Speaker 3: especially in a sport like basketball, it will change the

2176
01:59:48,920 --> 01:59:50,840
Speaker 3: dynamic of the game. So he's gonna have to fight

2177
01:59:50,880 --> 01:59:53,320
Speaker 3: for his guys. Man, that's part of the coaching aspect.

2178
01:59:53,440 --> 01:59:55,880
Speaker 2: It's almost like the ref knows them. It's okay if

2179
01:59:55,880 --> 01:59:58,120
Speaker 2: the refs know certain players, let them play their style,

2180
01:59:58,240 --> 02:00:00,600
Speaker 2: as soon as our guys play their style. Getting files

2181
02:00:00,640 --> 02:00:06,360
Speaker 2: every time. He's very salty, very salty, and now saying, hey,

2182
02:00:06,440 --> 02:00:09,840
Speaker 2: we need to change up how efficient officials are chosen

2183
02:00:09,880 --> 02:00:12,160
Speaker 2: in the whole nine yards. Ryan Hollands calling for an

2184
02:00:12,200 --> 02:00:15,320
Speaker 2: upheaval to the Olympic structure. I like it.

2185
02:00:17,920 --> 02:00:20,760
Speaker 3: No, everybody I was doing right. I don't mind it.
