Joba and the Mouth 3-12-26 · NY's Sports Loud Mouth (VIDEO)

• 0:00
  It's the worldwide sports radio network, in an absolute stunner,
• 0:05
  that reverberated around the NFL on Tuesday.
• 0:08
  The Baltimore Ravens, backed out of the Blockbuster Maxx Crosby
• 0:13
  trade now slate last week. Allegedly due to a failed
• 0:17
  physical with Crosby on the men from a meniscus repair.
• 0:20
  Since January many in the league are crying foul.
• 0:23
  That the Raven simply had buyers remorse.
• 0:26
  And after their signing of Trey Hendrickson, the Optics look,
• 0:29
  incredibly bad for Ravens, GM America to Costa and owners
• 0:33
  Steve Bisciotti as the market for Crosby is certainly less
• 0:36
  after the failed physical and as teams signed players with Crosby
• 0:40
  assumed off the market. The Raiders certainly have a
• 0:43
  major gripe on their hands as they try to navigate a most
• 0:46
  likely lesser trade of their franchise's best players since
• 0:50
  he was drafted in 2019. In Miami Tuesday night, the NBA
• 0:56
  world was rocked to its core by Miami Heat and team USA's gold
• 1:01
  medal Olympic center from 2024. Bam.
• 1:03
  Out of Bio, who scored a whopping 83 points against the
• 1:08
  Washington Wizards passing. Kobe Bryant's 81 as the second
• 1:11
  most points in a single game after Wilt Chamberlain's
• 1:14
  legendary 100 points back. A 60s.
• 1:18
  At a bio set records for most foul shots taken and made in the
• 1:21
  game which by the fourth quarter was seemingly set up to force
• 1:24
  feed. Bam the ball, leading some in
• 1:26
  the media to take shots at the historic effort by the big
• 1:29
  fella, how great was Bam's night and was it better than Kobe's
• 1:33
  801 20 years ago and before we take a ride on the concrete
• 1:38
  jungle, Carousel and see what's going on with all the local
• 1:41
  teams in the tri-state area. And after we whip around the
• 1:43
  rest of the opening days of NFL free agency, we will take a hard
• 1:47
  look at Team, USA, barely making it into the second round of the
• 1:51
  World Baseball, Classic after manager.
• 1:53
  Mark, DeRosa bench starters in the final game, thinking the
• 1:57
  team already was into the next round on another all gas.
• 2:01
  No brakes, wheeling and dealing hustling and out muscle in live
• 2:07
  Thursday night edition of Offensive players in the league.
• 2:28
  We're going to be looking at Aaron judge and saying that you
• 2:30
  can't win the game. Michael Jordan said I played 82
• 2:34
  games, you don't see Lavon doing this again where you've got to
• 2:38
  go for. A four, I told you giant things.
• 2:40
  Take one Barkley at this point. Let's do it.
• 3:41
  You're listening to Jabba and the mouth. 631 672. 3108 is the

• 4:35
  Ladies and gentlemen, it's been a crazy crazy week, we have some
• 4:40
  snow going on 70 degrees last week.
• 4:42
  It was 70, 80, almost 80 degrees last week and then all of sudden
• 4:47
  transforms into 38 40, 42. And that's a big problem right
• 4:51
  now here in New York and hopefully it starts to change.
• 4:56
  And I will say this for all the fans out there that have not
• 5:00
  been to New York or have been to other states like California,
• 5:03
  Miami or even Washington DC right now, it is like 80 degrees
• 5:09
  right now eighty degrees. In Miami.
• 5:13
  I think it was 82 today. California today was like about
• 5:16
  81 and in Washington. It was pretty hot today too.
• 5:20
  I think it was in his 70s. 74 75.
• 5:22
  So the weather is completely different than it is here in New
• 5:26
  York, so hopefully the transition is more.
• 5:30
  Better cooler. And listen, I I'm not a summer
• 5:34
  guy. I stay away from the summer and
• 5:36
  I the whole thing with the summary is is it's just it makes
• 5:40
  me sweat. I don't like the hot.
• 5:42
  I don't like the heat. I like the the opportunity to go
• 5:45
  out there and skate or run or you know, jog or enjoy the
• 5:50
  weather, but it gets too hot out here once it hits the 80s.
• 5:54
  It's humid, it's disgusting. And I just don't like the
• 5:56
  weather. So hopefully, it doesn't get
• 5:59
  that bad this year, but we got a lot of, we have a lot to get
• 6:03
  into today a lot. Big Show lined up for you guys.
• 6:05
  At 8:15. We will be put, we will be
• 6:07
  talking to nhl.com debut editor, I'm sorry.
• 6:11
  Deputy editor and host of NHL draft class podcast, Adam
• 6:15
  kimelman. He will be joining us and I want
• 6:18
  to apologize for the fans. My camera's, a little slow
• 6:21
  tonight but just bear with me. We're working on some things and
• 6:25
  it might freeze a little bit, but you still hear me.
• 6:28
  So don't worry. About it.
• 6:30
  Everything will be fine as long as you're listening to me, as
• 6:33
  long as you can hear me. That will make the show a lot
• 6:35
  better on Tuesday. The Heat, beat the lowly Wizards
• 6:39
  150 to 129, which is normally not news at all, except that
• 6:45
  night Heat center bam. Out of Bio scored an absolutely
• 6:49
  ridiculous. 83 point game passing.
• 6:51
  Kobe Bryant for second most in a single game in NBA history
• 6:56
  trailing only will Chamberlain's 100 points way back in 1962.
• 7:00
  Bam, got 31 points in the first quarter alone, good for the Heat
• 7:05
  record and six most points ever in the quarter.
• 7:09
  He broke the Miami. He franchise record from most
• 7:12
  points in a game. Bam, got 31 points in the first
• 7:15
  quarter alone, good for the Heat record and six most points ever
• 7:20
  in a quarter. He broke Miami Heat, franchise
• 7:22
  record from most points in a game.
• 7:24
  In the third quarter. When he reached 62 points,
• 7:27
  beating LeBron James just record 61 set.
• 7:30
  Back in 2014. Bam.
• 7:31
  Also set the NBA record for most free throws made in a game
• 7:36
  making 36 out of 43. Free throws surpassing the
• 7:40
  record of 28 tied with Adrian Dantley in 1984 and Will
• 7:45
  Chamberlain during his 100-point game in 1962.
• 7:49
  Bam is the lowest score as far as points per game among any
• 7:53
  players who scored 70 in a game scoring, just 16.1 points per
• 7:58
  game in his career, Bam's, previous career high.
• 8:02
  In a game was 41 a record. He had broken by half-time of
• 8:07
  this game with his 83 point game.
• 8:10
  Bam raised scoring average for the season from 18.9 points per
• 8:16
  game to 20 points per game. Several former players and
• 8:21
  analysts were critical of the performance.
• 8:24
  However, as they heat began, potentially fouling up over 20
• 8:28
  points, simply to stop the Talk and get the ball back for bam,
• 8:33
  to break Kobes 81 point record. Seven time NBA champion, Robert
• 8:39
  Horry said, the Heat's late game Antics disrespected.
• 8:42
  The game while analysts Jason Whitlock said, it was
• 8:46
  embarrassing and compared to the baseball steroid era in terms of
• 8:51
  being tainted. 76ers forward Kelly over at Juniors, said that
• 8:55
  impede 70-point game was more impressive because the efficient
• 8:59
  shooting criticizing Bam's 46.5% shooting percentage in the game
• 9:03
  and foul bathing. Bam out of Bio score 83 points
• 9:08
  in an NBA game. It is a different game.
• 9:11
  Now, the NBA is different. Scoring is different.
• 9:16
  It changed in the early 2000s. And the Hand checking the NBA
• 9:22
  was different when Will Chamberlain played and when Kobe
• 9:24
  scored his 81 points. Colby.
• 9:30
  Was, it was a different game of basketball, too.
• 9:32
  It was in the early 2000. It was the chain.
• 9:35
  The offense was changed. The points scoring was
• 9:37
  completely different. I thought it was more
• 9:40
  impressive. What Colby Bryant did.
• 9:43
  But you can't take away. What?
• 9:45
  Bam out of Bio did. And Bam is one of the better
• 9:50
  offensive centers in the league right now.
• 9:53
  Yeah, he's averaging 16 points and obviously he's not Yannis,
• 9:57
  or he's not Nicole yokich but he gives a different style of
• 10:01
  offense to the ball. He's a good rebounder when he
• 10:04
  was picked to play for Team, USA.
• 10:06
  He was picked because of his rebounding skills and his
• 10:09
  defense. He was not picked because of his
• 10:12
  orphans. But banished the game.
• 10:17
  You could say whatever you want and anybody could come out here
• 10:20
  Roberto could say it was embarrassing.
• 10:24
  And and all these different guys that have gone out, they asked
• 10:26
  Janice thought it was very impressive. but the fact here
• 10:32
  is, as the game moves forward, you're going to see games like
• 10:36
  this, because the NBA's different now, It's more open,
• 10:41
  there's more offense. These centers can shoot threes.
• 10:45
  The fact what the Wizards were doing and falling him and making
• 10:48
  a free throw line, and he had 30 fixed 36, free throws.
• 10:52
  And I know everybody's going to say, well it's not easy to have
• 10:55
  free throws. Go ask Mitchell.
• 10:58
  Robertson hack, a mitch go where she kill O'Neal?
• 11:01
  All guys that were centers. Now, Pamela bio is not seven
• 11:04
  foot one. Seven foot two, But he's six.
• 11:08
  Ten six eleven, he's a big man and he can shoot free throws.
• 11:13
  Are you gonna blame him? Because he can hit 35 out of 43?
• 11:17
  Free throws. A 42 free, throws know, you're
• 11:19
  not gonna blame him. He's a good free.
• 11:23
  Throw shooter if people want to hack him, he's gonna go to
• 11:26
  align. He's going to shoot him.
• 11:29
  The fact here is if you're if you're not a Miami Heat fan or
• 11:32
  you're not a bam out of Bio fan, you can have something to say
• 11:34
  about it. And you wouldn't expect bam out
• 11:37
  of Bio. Be the one, the big man that's
• 11:40
  going to score 83 points, you would have thought Nicole yoked
• 11:42
  Joel embed who scored 70 points. A little while ago, you would
• 11:46
  expect that from those guys. You wouldn't expect it from Bama
• 11:49
  to buy you, but this is the Washington Wizards.
• 11:51
  The Washington Wizards are not a good defensive team, not a good
• 11:55
  offensive team, they're trying to lose.
• 11:57
  They're trying to get as high as higher draft pick in this year's
• 12:00
  draft because it's a quality draft and you would expect it.
• 12:05
  But the facts here is, is that bam out of Bio right now.
• 12:08
  I wouldn't say he's going to score 83 points, but he's gonna
• 12:11
  do this more often because the game has changed and it's going
• 12:14
  to change even more. When the new CBA comes out and
• 12:17
  the NBA changes, the rules, you're not this isn't the first,
• 12:20
  or this is not going to be the last time, a players gonna
• 12:23
  score, 83, 85 86 eventually. We're going to see a player
• 12:26
  score 100 points. The game is different.
• 12:29
  You have guys that can hit 9 to 10 or 13, 3-pointers in one
• 12:33
  game. Now you have centers that can
• 12:36
  get into the paint. Draw fouls, shoot free throws.
• 12:40
  And yeah 83 points is pretty remarkable.
• 12:45
  I want to see bam, do it against a good defensive team.
• 12:47
  I want to see. Bam.
• 12:48
  Do it against a more. Prominent team.
• 12:52
  But you can't take away what he did.
• 12:54
  Now, you look at Will Chamberlain.
• 12:56
  You look at the 100-point game that he had very impressive, but
• 12:59
  remember, In those days, in the 60s and the 70s.
• 13:04
  There were very few teens there, aren't 30.
• 13:07
  Something teams in the NBA. It was like 15 14 and he was the
• 13:12
  biggest player in the league. The second biggest player in the
• 13:16
  league was Bill Russell. And that's why the competition
• 13:19
  between both those guys you saw a defense against offense, Bill
• 13:23
  Russell was the one that stopped Will Chamberlain, Will
• 13:26
  Chamberlain, only one, if I'm not mistaken, he won two
• 13:29
  championships won with the 76ers.
• 13:31
  And one with the Lakers Bill Russell won 10, 11
• 13:35
  championships. The Celtics were a dominant
• 13:40
  organization that knew how to stop Will Chamberlain.
• 13:43
  Just like I said, this about Giannis.
• 13:44
  Everybody wants Giannis. So all the Knick fans want
• 13:46
  Giannis. The problem we got is Janice is
• 13:49
  not good in the playoffs. Giannis has been held to a
• 13:55
  different standard in the playoffs and that's what happens
• 13:57
  to Biggs. If you can't shoot well chamber
• 14:00
  wants to what three point shooter he was in.
• 14:02
  He was a paint player, he was a guy that could shoot free
• 14:05
  throws, but he would dominate in the paint junk, he wouldn't even
• 14:08
  have to jump the dunk. Bam out of BIOS at different
• 14:12
  kind of player, he's big, he's strong.
• 14:15
  He can get into the paint, he can rebound.
• 14:17
  So and and again, the Wizards practically LED bam, out of Bio
• 14:21
  do whatever he wants. If you look at the statistics in
• 14:23
  the game, I mean they stick out to you Think about it.
• 14:28
  Bam out of bio. Had he played, 42 minutes 80%
• 14:32
  points, 20 for 43, 7 for 22, at the three-point line.
• 14:36
  Free throws 36 for 43 rebounds 9 assists three.
• 14:41
  He dominated. Absolutely dominated.
• 14:43
  His plus minus was 20. That's the Wizards.
• 14:49
  Do you expect that it gets the Nuggets?
• 14:51
  Do you expect that against OKC? Do you expect that against
• 14:53
  Detroit or the next know? But it's impressive and NBA game
• 14:59
  scoring 83 points, it doesn't matter how bad and NBA team is.
• 15:04
  We seen this before. There are NHL teams that are
• 15:06
  horrible. And we've seen guys score five
• 15:09
  goals against those horrible teams, it's not easy to score
• 15:11
  five goals in a game. so, you're gonna take that, That record
• 15:17
  away or you're gonna take that away from the player that scored
• 15:20
  five goals. How about six goals in a game,
• 15:22
  having two hat tricks we've seen that before I if I'm not
• 15:25
  mistaken Wayne Gretzky at one point, score nine, goals in a
• 15:28
  game. It's impressive.
• 15:33
  You cannot steal that and I understand Robert Horry is an ex
• 15:37
  player. He's got his own opinions, and
• 15:39
  Rob it already played further, it was great used in rocket
• 15:42
  teams. LA Lakers the Spurs he won
• 15:45
  multiple championships, he's a sensational six man.
• 15:49
  He's one of the more deadliest three point shooters in the
• 15:52
  finals and in the playoffs, he was sensation.
• 15:55
  He was a good basketball player, he's not, bam out of bio.
• 16:00
  Now, bam has never won a championship.
• 16:04
  But what bam has done in this league, he sees changed the
• 16:08
  power forward centers position. He's a more you need defensive
• 16:15
  offensive player at his position.
• 16:18
  Look at this, the United States team.
• 16:21
  Had three big men on that team. The number one, play the number
• 16:25
  one, big man on that USA team. That just played in the Olympics
• 16:28
  was bam out of bio. He starred and he started over
• 16:32
  to L&B. He started over all the big men
• 16:36
  on that team. He was the best big man.
• 16:41
  Speedy, stop looking at the camera, the cameras, gonna
• 16:43
  freeze. I keep telling you, there's
• 16:45
  nothing you can do about it. Bam out of Bio to me is one of
• 16:51
  the best. Defensive offensive centers in
• 16:54
  the league 16 points. It doesn't matter 20 points, it
• 16:57
  doesn't matter what he did in the game was unique, it's
• 17:00
  different, you're not going to see something like that again,
• 17:02
  at least in the next couple of years.
• 17:04
  But again, the rule changes, the offensive changes, the pace of
• 17:09
  the game changes, the NBA changes, And again, you can go
• 17:14
  back and forth, you can argue your points about what he has
• 17:16
  done. I don't think you can argue what
• 17:18
  he brought to the table that night against a Wizards team
• 17:22
  that didn't want to come out and play.
• 17:23
  Now, if Anthony Davis played in the game and he was defending
• 17:26
  Bama score, 83 points, probably not.
• 17:31
  And the Washington Wizards are starting third string players
• 17:34
  for a whole 48 minutes. It's different When you think
• 17:39
  about it and again I could go back and forth on the Wilt
• 17:43
  Chamberlain situation. I wrote a story you guys could
• 17:45
  go check it out on the worldwide.
• 17:47
  Sports radio network. Bam drops. 83 Kobe drops, 81
• 17:51
  will drops 100 and the internet. Still finds a way to argue about
• 17:55
  it. because when Wilt Chamberlain did it, oh, he
• 17:59
  didn't play against anybody. There's only a certain amount of
• 18:02
  teams. There's nobody the same size.
• 18:04
  If you go back and you look at what he did and you watched that
• 18:07
  100 point game on the NBA on nba.com, because you could go
• 18:11
  watched the old video is that they have on your YouTube, or on
• 18:14
  the NBA network, they play that old 100 point game that Will
• 18:18
  Chamberlain had. And the facts here is and I'll
• 18:23
  tell you this, the facts here is is Will Chamberlain still put up
• 18:27
  100 points? He still rebound rebounded.
• 18:30
  Like 30 40. Rebounds in that game.
• 18:33
  You can't take that away from a star player just because there
• 18:37
  was nobody the same size as him. There was no more, there's no
• 18:40
  big man is asked athletic is he was And going back to Kobe
• 18:46
  Bryant. Kobe Bryant was unique to and if
• 18:49
  you watched that Kobe game, they were feeding Kobe.
• 18:52
  Feeding Kobe. The ball tried to break that
• 18:54
  record. In the fourth quarter, he was
• 18:58
  fed every single time. The Lakers came down the court.
• 19:03
  And by the way, for all the fans out there that want to go back
• 19:06
  and forth on what they saw and how it's much of how much this
• 19:10
  is a mockery for the NBA. How is it a mockery?
• 19:12
  It was the biggest story of the night.
• 19:16
  That was the same night of the WBC Team, USA getting knocked
• 19:21
  out knocked down by the Italian team.
• 19:25
  They beat him eight six and we'll get into a little bit
• 19:27
  later. But that wasn't the big story.
• 19:30
  A big surprise that Italy knocked off Team USA.
• 19:35
  And the biggest story of the night.
• 19:36
  Oh, by the way, I think it's the same night that the Crosby trade
• 19:40
  was Evoque. The Baltimore decided to Take
• 19:48
  back the draft picks, they sent to the Raiders.
• 19:54
  The biggest story of the night wasn't even Crosby.
• 19:57
  It wasn't, it wasn't the WBC Team.
• 20:01
  USA and Team, Italy. It was bam out of Bio knocking
• 20:04
  down 83 points in an NBA game. Yeah it's not the playoffs.
• 20:08
  Yeah. It wasn't against an elite team.
• 20:10
  It doesn't matter how many players do stuff like that.
• 20:13
  How many players do that in an NBA game?
• 20:16
  There was only three players in history of the NBA to score over
• 20:20
  80 or more points. And really from different eras.
• 20:25
  Different decades. Will Chamberlain.
• 20:30
  Did it in the 60s? I think it was the 60s.
• 20:34
  Well, I write it was a 60s. It was 60 years 62.
• 20:39
  I think it was 62. Kobe Bryant did in the early
• 20:42
  2000s. And now, bam out of Bio.
• 20:45
  Did it in 2026. If you think about it, will
• 20:49
  Chamberlain. Did it 40 years before Kobe?
• 20:52
  Bryant, it is 81 points. And then 20 something years
• 20:57
  after that, it was bam out of by, this doesn't happen every
• 21:00
  day at teams players, don't hit 80 point games.
• 21:04
  Every single year, it doesn't happen.
• 21:06
  But I'm gonna tell you this right now with the game, the way
• 21:09
  it's changed and the rules and the defense and how teams don't
• 21:12
  really play hard every single week.
• 21:14
  And every single game, I'm going to tell you this right now.
• 21:16
  You're going to see this again, it's going to happen again
• 21:19
  because that's the way the NBA works.
• 21:21
  It's not a, it's really not about what you doing a regular
• 21:26
  season, what you do in the playoffs and and again, I'm not
• 21:29
  surprised that this happened with bam out of bio.
• 21:32
  It yet Speedy was working on on the camera, so he asked me to go
• 21:36
  first. I just wanted you guys to know
• 21:39
  one stat that I think is really fascinating about this.
• 21:43
  And look, bam scoring 83 points. Fantastic, just a third guy,
• 21:46
  ever to do 80 plus points. It's unbelievable.
• 21:50
  He's also the only guy who scored 70 points or more and had
• 21:55
  a sub 50% shooting percentage from the field because he took a
• 22:00
  ton of shots and obviously he got hacked a lot and he got a
• 22:02
  lot of foul shots contributing to it, but he only shot 46 and a
• 22:05
  half percent from the field in this game.
• 22:08
  Now, you talk about. Well, there's no footage of
• 22:11
  that, 100 point game. We don't know how they were
• 22:13
  feeding it to Wilton that game. We we assume most of the guys
• 22:18
  will were going again. We're about a half a foot to a
• 22:20
  foot shorter than him, considering how the game was
• 22:23
  back in those days. So, I, you know, you get, it's
• 22:26
  just a legend at this point, you know?
• 22:28
  Well, it's long gone. It's one of the great stories
• 22:31
  that we all grew up on. On, you know, my generation, I'm
• 22:34
  40 years old, you know, and you guys younger, you know, it's
• 22:37
  even more of a legend to you. So I remember Kobe.
• 22:41
  That was 2006. I believe so exactly 20 years
• 22:43
  ago. That was unbelievable.
• 22:46
  When it happened that Raptors team was terrible.
• 22:47
  He Jalen Rose got torched that entire game by Kobe.
• 22:52
  I mean, Kobe was put made it a mission to go get him.
• 22:56
  And there's guys saying that that Kobe game was more
• 22:58
  impressive. I think the Kobe game might have
• 23:00
  been a little more impressive just because Kobe is the shot
• 23:02
  Creator as opposed to, you know, the one that was getting fed to
• 23:07
  go make those plays like when he was already in the position they
• 23:10
  ever won new. Kobe was going for these shots.
• 23:12
  He was getting in there double team triple teamed he didn't
• 23:15
  care. He's Kobe Bryant in 81 with Kobe
• 23:18
  and if you asked Kobe to break 83 in that game, of course he
• 23:21
  would have broken 83 too. He just didn't have to because
• 23:24
  no one had done that yet. It wasn't a number for him to
• 23:26
  have to go. Get if Kobe had to go get a
• 23:29
  number, he probably would have done so as well.
• 23:30
  But you know, I think it says, a lot, Speedy more about, you
• 23:35
  know, Not so much. Like I don't want to belittle
• 23:38
  what band did because it's amazing.
• 23:41
  But I think it's just shows the reverence of how people think of
• 23:44
  Kobe Bryant, you know, essentially since he passed on
• 23:47
  that, you know what he did, and how he was able to facilitate
• 23:52
  offense on his own. It's just a little bit, maybe a
• 23:54
  little bit more special on better shooting night.
• 23:57
  Then again, it's like the absolute most garbage defense.
• 23:59
  The NBA has seen speedy. This might be the worst defense
• 24:02
  in 10 years. What the Wizards I mean.
• 24:04
  Yeah, it's always gonna be a bad team.
• 24:06
  I think when you look at these tougher statistical Feats,
• 24:09
  though, I think Arrow was mentioning before, like, in
• 24:11
  hockey is actually, like, young getting five goals in a game
• 24:13
  against is against anyone is hard because you have to go face
• 24:16
  off of the goaltender. You gotta go face off of the guy
• 24:18
  hitting you on the on the line and basketball you obviously
• 24:20
  can't go. And that's a, that's a penalty,
• 24:22
  the basket counts. So yeah, I'm getting 83 points
• 24:25
  in that kind of setting, I think is maybe a little bit different,
• 24:27
  but again, it's still a hard feat to do is actually for a big
• 24:30
  man. Like, you look at you look at
• 24:31
  the raw size for Wilt, Chamberlain back, then compared
• 24:34
  to how much do you have to be able to do it in the athleticism
• 24:37
  now? And I think that's why a lot of
• 24:38
  these people are still being tainted on that.
• 24:39
  I will never Would be as good of a player all time as will chain
• 24:43
  Rule. And obviously, but you look at
• 24:44
  the magnitude of it in today's game where the athletes are a
• 24:48
  lot harder. And I think that's where an
• 24:50
  error is getting it before. Like, 83 points is still going
• 24:52
  to be a very difficult feat when you're playing against the
• 24:54
  athletes of today. And I think one of the comments
• 24:56
  on his story was like there's a lot of like Luka doncic and
• 24:59
  honest type freak athletes that are in today's game compared to
• 25:03
  Wilt Chamberlain's time, but obviously you'll never catch the
• 25:07
  amount of wheelchair and now, obviously, Kobe.
• 25:08
  There was different with the game circumstances, too.
• 25:11
  Kobe came back. Kobe came back down in the game.
• 25:15
  I think they were down by 10 or something.
• 25:16
  So they had to get those baskets to go like, obviously somebody,
• 25:19
  like, Derek Fisher and guys like that were not going to lead them
• 25:23
  back at the time. And then you look at this kind
• 25:26
  of instance, too, Miami has Shooters but they don't have
• 25:29
  like great overall team. So try to make that kind of
• 25:32
  thing. Work circumstantially the same
• 25:33
  way. It's a little different as well,
• 25:36
  so there's merits to both of them.
• 25:38
  I think it's a little harder in today's game for a big man to do
• 25:40
  it. So I will still give out a bio.
• 25:41
  His flowers on that one. Is it tougher for somebody like
• 25:44
  Kobe's, creating his own shots more sure.
• 25:46
  But I'm not going to like downplay it because 80 points.
• 25:50
  We've seen 70, but those are mostly from scoring guards
• 25:52
  today. Devin Booker Luka, Don chick
• 25:54
  Donovan Mitchell. I believe did it, but those are
• 25:57
  scoring guards, those are big men.
• 25:58
  Today, it's harder for a big man today and today's rules and
• 26:01
  today's game just how it's operating to make that kind of
• 26:03
  thing, work to score 83, I don't care how bad the defense is at
• 26:07
  the point because it's actually now you see, like TV show pole,
• 26:10
  guy's late game still when they know they have either of a good
• 26:12
  leader or their playing at the shity team.
• 26:14
  All right, so I got the camera working.
• 26:16
  I see. Oh Speedy.
• 26:17
  Looking at my camera wondering why it's freezing.
• 26:20
  I fixed it ladies and gentlemen, had to run to the back because
• 26:24
  our producers don't understand it.
• 26:27
  Well, I figured it out. Anyways, to get back, get back
• 26:30
  to that and now I can actually think because I see Speedy.
• 26:33
  Looking at my computer. I See Fish looking over here.
• 26:36
  I see Tommy making a mistake on the board so hopefully
• 26:39
  everything doesn't freeze anymore and I don't have to hear
• 26:42
  my production over here. Not do something, right?
• 26:44
  So let me get back to this whole, bam out of Bio thing and
• 26:48
  now I can actually think and I'm not gonna have a problem
• 26:51
  worrying about something freezing.
• 26:54
  Bam. Out of Bio is a unique player.
• 26:57
  Nobody can take that away from them.
• 26:58
  I know everybody's sitting here today and wondering why bam Auto
• 27:03
  bio scored. 83 points is a joke. It is not a joke.
• 27:08
  This guy is a great player, he's one of the top players in the
• 27:11
  league. How many centers could do what?
• 27:13
  Bamba on a bio does. How many centers could do that?
• 27:18
  Nicola yokich might be the only Center in the league that could
• 27:22
  do what bought Pam on a bio did. And everybody's gonna say, well,
• 27:24
  what about Giannis, Giannis is not that type of player, Johnny
• 27:27
  can't really shoot the three, maybe weapon Yama, maybe in the
• 27:31
  future, where being on the gross and gets a little bit bigger and
• 27:34
  Little Bit Stronger, like bam out of Bio that he can
• 27:37
  dominating the paint. We saw what happened to get OG
• 27:40
  in a nobby. We seen what's happened to guys
• 27:42
  like like webpack Yama, it takes a little while to grow, and it
• 27:47
  was body. but again, going back to this story and and obviously
• 27:52
  what we have seen over the last couple of weeks with the NBA is
• 27:56
  this, there's a lot of scoring The NBA is different now.
• 28:01
  There's more scoring. You're gonna, you're gonna get
• 28:04
  some of these rookie players. You see Cooper Flagg, we see
• 28:06
  some of the young players, get a chance to score 50 Cooper Flagg.
• 28:09
  I think he's the youngest player ever scored 50 points in a game.
• 28:14
  We see in the rookie three-point record happened this year.
• 28:18
  Is it a coincidence? No.
• 28:20
  This is what happens, the development of players these
• 28:24
  kids, train harder, these kids start younger.
• 28:27
  It's a different game, it's more faster, it's more talented and
• 28:31
  you're gonna see more athletically gifted players come
• 28:34
  out of this year's draft and Peterson and Boozer.
• 28:39
  And to Baeza, They're all athletically gifted and you're
• 28:43
  gonna see, even many flaming is going to be an athletic player
• 28:45
  in the league, Wilson's, going to be an app athletic player in
• 28:48
  the league, you're gonna just see these players get better and
• 28:51
  better and more talented as the years go by.
• 28:55
  Bam out of bio. Bam out of BIOS.
• 28:57
  Never done this in a season, we hit them out of by I don't even
• 29:00
  think as ever scored 50 points in a game.
• 29:05
  So this is a first time for that, doesn't mean that.
• 29:07
  I'm a buyer will never score 50 points in a game.
• 29:10
  It's only gives him confidence that he can do this.
• 29:14
  The game is different. The speed of the game is going
• 29:18
  to be different Talent is different.
• 29:21
  Will Chamberlain never played against athletically gifted
• 29:24
  players like that Will Chamberlain.
• 29:27
  Will Chamberlain played in the league?
• 29:28
  Now when guys like webbing Yamaha or Nicole yokich could,
• 29:32
  we'll Chamberlain score 100 points in a game.
• 29:34
  The answer would be no. Can Kobe play in this game?
• 29:38
  100% can Michael Jordan play in the game?
• 29:41
  Absolutely. You're gonna tell me right now
• 29:43
  if Michael Jordan wanted to. He couldn't score 83 points or
• 29:48
  85 points in a game. He absolutely could.
• 29:53
  But that was an important to him.
• 29:55
  What, bam out of Bio did. This past week was unique.
• 29:59
  Why is anybody like Robert orry or any of these guys taking
• 30:03
  shots at this kid. It's not this guy's fault that
• 30:06
  with the Wizards don't want to play hard.
• 30:07
  It's not his fault that the wizard that the Miami he was
• 30:11
  giving him the ball and feeding him the ball and he was going
• 30:13
  up. He was he was shooting 30-6 free
• 30:16
  throws. He went out there and played his
• 30:20
  butt off. He played hard.
• 30:23
  Oh, we gonna Be enough breaker to him and we're going to just
• 30:26
  break his nuts because he's not, he this is something that we
• 30:30
  haven't seen before or he shouldn't have done it.
• 30:33
  Bam on a bio is not the guy that everybody expects.
• 30:35
  He's not the big man that everybody expects that's going
• 30:38
  to score, 83 points and a game. So that's why Robert Horry.
• 30:42
  And every single person, every single X, athlete every single
• 30:45
  player in the league. When they've interviewed them.
• 30:47
  I saw honest interview and he was like, I have never seen this
• 30:50
  offensive type of game by Bama and his career.
• 30:53
  That's great, but he did it, he scored 83 what is Giannis?
• 30:57
  Gonna say until his does, it Giannis can't do it.
• 31:00
  But if you honest did it if Yonder scored 83 plus, oh it's
• 31:03
  Yannis. It's The Greek Freak.
• 31:05
  If it was Nicole yokich oh, it's Nicole, yokich.
• 31:08
  This guy is a triple-double machine.
• 31:11
  Because it's bam out of Bio. Who is a defensive minded player
• 31:15
  rebounder everybody's having a conniption Everybody hates it.
• 31:21
  No woman. Nobody wants to see it.
• 31:23
  Everybody wants its attack. Bam.
• 31:25
  Out of Bio because he had a fantastic game.
• 31:29
  That's what my story for the worldwide sports radio network
• 31:32
  and why I posted it. Everybody asked me, what are you
• 31:35
  going to write about? Bam out of bio?
• 31:38
  And I said, I don't there's no need to write about bam out of
• 31:40
  bio and they say, well look what everybody's saying about him.
• 31:44
  Everybody saying that this is a this is a, I don't even know
• 31:48
  what they said. This is a force.
• 31:51
  This shouldn't have happened. The NBA should not accept the
• 31:54
  fact that this guy broke, Kobe Bryant record.
• 31:58
  Well Arrow, what do you feel about the the intentional
• 32:01
  fouling down the stretch to stop that?
• 32:04
  They didn't have back in those. Who cares?
• 32:06
  The game's changed everything changes.
• 32:10
  Are we gonna say? No, that's that's the, that's
• 32:12
  one of the things they brought up.
• 32:13
  And I think it's a valid point that, you know, that that's an
• 32:16
  advantage that they had in this, this game that they didn't have
• 32:19
  any other two, 80 plus games. You know, I don't think it's a
• 32:23
  big deal and again, the game has changed.
• 32:25
  I know that over the last couple of years, the NBA has said that
• 32:29
  the rules have opened up the game in the 90s.
• 32:31
  I said, I've said this many many times, could the Golden State
• 32:34
  Warriors play in those 90s, those 90 Bull against those 90,
• 32:39
  Bulls teams know, because if you have guys like Ron Harper and
• 32:44
  Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen And Dennis Rodman, defending
• 32:48
  those guys. And we can name all of an old,
• 32:50
  you Golden State Warriors fans that want to jump for joy on how
• 32:54
  great the Golden State Warriors were, and there's championship
• 32:57
  teams and their Dynasty. So what is Chicago Bulls?
• 33:02
  Those teams were unbelievable. The 96 Bulls could arguably be
• 33:07
  the greatest basketball team of all time does bam out of Bio
• 33:11
  score, 83 points against the 96, bulls not a chance in hell.
• 33:16
  This is the Washington Wizards third string players, second
• 33:20
  string players guys that nobody wants.
• 33:24
  But you're going to take that away from him because he played
• 33:26
  against non talented players. If you make it to the NBA,
• 33:30
  you're you're the best of the best.
• 33:33
  You're not in the G League, you're in the NBA.
• 33:36
  Just because you're a third string player.
• 33:37
  The number for 12 player on your roster, on the depth charts or
• 33:41
  11th or 10th, does that mean that bam out of Bio Shin score?
• 33:45
  83 points know, I'm gonna score as many points as I possibly
• 33:48
  can. But everybody's attacking him.
• 33:50
  Screw them on a bio. He's not that good of a player.
• 33:54
  The guys, a haul of Famer. Oh, the Famer you're going to
• 33:58
  tell me. Everybody makes it to the whole
• 33:59
  of Fame if bam out of Bio retired from the NBA right now.
• 34:03
  How long is Bam been in the league since 2017?
• 34:06
  So is this is 10th here. Bam.
• 34:09
  Out of Bio is a whole of Famer. He's a Hall of Famer.
• 34:14
  If you look at his numbers and I can name a bunch of players that
• 34:19
  are going to the whole of Fame at his position or been, I've
• 34:22
  gone to the Hall of Fame with his practically same numbers.
• 34:26
  He is one of the most consistent big man in the NBA.
• 34:32
  But we're going to take that away from him.
• 34:33
  We're going to attack him because all he scored, 83 points
• 34:36
  in the game and a game and we've never seen this with from bam
• 34:39
  out of bio. That's the problem right now.
• 34:42
  And I I again, as an NBA fan, I am a big die-hard NBA fan.
• 34:48
  It bothers me when you have ex NBA players like Robert Orion,
• 34:51
  that's crying the river crying in the river.
• 34:53
  Oh this is this is absolutely a joke.
• 34:57
  This is a joke this this hurts the NBA why?
• 35:01
  Because Robert Horry was. Kobe Bryant's fan friend.
• 35:05
  Who cares. So what he broke?
• 35:07
  Kobe Bryant's record. Kobe will always be remembered
• 35:10
  as one of the best offensive forward.
• 35:11
  I'm sorry, one of the best offensive guards the NBA's ever
• 35:15
  seen. Robert Horry.
• 35:20
  I don't care how many championships he won.
• 35:22
  He played with some of the greatest basketball players of
• 35:25
  all time. He played with Kobe, she killed.
• 35:27
  He played with Elijah on. He played with Drexler.
• 35:34
  We could go on it first. He played with Tim donkin, he
• 35:37
  played with Mano Ginobili, he played with Tony Parker, Who
• 35:43
  does Bama play with? Really, who does he play?
• 35:47
  Oh, I got it. Tyler hero.
• 35:49
  That's who he's playing with. That's the superstore player
• 35:53
  that bam out of Bio is playing with and nobody wants to give
• 35:56
  him credit. He played with Butler for a
• 35:59
  couple of years. Honestly, if you would ask me
• 36:02
  right now who is the heart and soul, who is the best player on
• 36:06
  those Miami Heat teams. It is Bam out of bio.
• 36:13
  He was the Workhorse. Jimmy buckets couldn't stay
• 36:17
  healthy. Bama to bios one of the
• 36:19
  healthiest players he plays as consistent every single year so
• 36:24
  you're gonna take this away from him because people don't like
• 36:27
  it. They don't like it.
• 36:29
  You know what? I got news for you guys.
• 36:31
  I don't like the way Speedy looks on camera.
• 36:35
  So know what he shouldn't be on camera anymore.
• 36:36
  I'm taking him off the camera. I don't want to look at him. and
• 36:41
  fish when he goes you know on Jabba and I'm gonna mute him
• 36:45
  every time he does that because I don't like it.
• 36:50
  Guess what? Who the hell cares?
• 36:52
  What you like? The guy went out there and
• 36:56
  played his butt off. If I scored 10 points against
• 37:00
  LeBron, James and a basketball game, guess what?
• 37:02
  I'm doing. I'm bringing it about it. 40
• 37:07
  three points in a basketball game and NBA basketball game.
• 37:15
  And that's what that kept by the way.
• 37:17
  Who the hell is Kelly oubre? Who the hell is he?
• 37:22
  Why is he speaking? What is he one?
• 37:26
  What the hell did he win? What?
• 37:30
  Now he's broadcasting his podcasting who's next from the
• 37:33
  NBA when they retire. How many podcasts are going to
• 37:36
  be out there talking about boom on a Bono It's ridiculous.
• 37:43
  It's pathetic and half of these, then be a player should not be
• 37:46
  speaking. That's the problem right now.
• 37:49
  In the NBA Everybody Talks. Adam Silver doesn't have any
• 37:53
  control over these players. None of them.
• 37:56
  As we call it the lja. Because LeBron James is starting
• 38:00
  this. And I I'm telling you it's only
• 38:03
  gonna get worse because when LeBron leaves you got Anthony
• 38:06
  Edwards, that doesn't speak enough and when he does he just
• 38:09
  want to throw up. And you have a good guy, like,
• 38:13
  bam out of bio. After the game.
• 38:16
  Crying. Happy.
• 38:20
  Having an opportunity to do something that nobody no big man
• 38:24
  since Will Chamberlain has ever done.
• 38:26
  And by the way, the two guys that scored 80 or more points or
• 38:32
  big men, Are big men. Kobe Bryant's.
• 38:36
  The only small guy guard that's ever.
• 38:39
  Scored, 80, or more points. What does that tell you?
• 38:44
  Tell you that the big man has transformed from the 60s to now
• 38:49
  the 2000 era and it only going to get better because you got
• 38:53
  guys, like Nicola yokich getting triple doubles every single
• 38:56
  game. So cry about it.
• 38:58
  How about this? Nicolas yolk is just a cheater
• 39:02
  He's put, I don't know. He's put special souls in his
• 39:05
  sneakers and that's why he scoring 30, something points a
• 39:08
  game. And the reason why he's passing
• 39:10
  the ball behind the back and he's he's passing it or doing
• 39:13
  alley, oops, with players that you he's not even looking at the
• 39:16
  hoop. You know why?
• 39:17
  Because he's got a camera on that back of his ass.
• 39:20
  He's cheating. Nobody's saying that up under
• 39:23
  Holyoke but because Bama bio is not a point score.
• 39:29
  He's not a guy that scores 30 points a game and he scores 83
• 39:33
  it's a force. It's it's it shouldn't happen.
• 39:36
  NBA should not allow it. Real, real great.
• 39:39
  Thank you NBA. This is, this is garbage and
• 39:42
  I'll say this, about Q Quinn. Couple's, we were talking today.
• 39:46
  He said are you gonna get into this bam out of Bio thing?
• 39:50
  I said, yeah, fish has it all set up for the beginning of the
• 39:53
  show. And he says, well what do you
• 39:55
  think about it? I said, read my story.
• 39:57
  And then he asked me how to rate, all three players that
• 40:00
  have done this. And you know what?
• 40:02
  I rated them. Kobe Bryant won.
• 40:05
  Bam out of Bio, two Will Chamberlain 3.
• 40:08
  And the reason why I rated it that way, is because Wilt,
• 40:12
  Chamberlain was the biggest guy on the basketball court when he
• 40:16
  did it. The second biggest guy against
• 40:21
  him in that game was six foot six.
• 40:23
  Go look at the go. Look at the size, play.
• 40:26
  The players were when will Chamberlain's did, when will
• 40:28
  Champion it's going to entry points.
• 40:31
  The biggest guy was six foot six.
• 40:35
  He doesn't have to jump. At least bam out of BIOS to play
• 40:40
  against seven Footers. They might not be good, but he
• 40:43
  played against the seven footer. And athletically gifted all of
• 40:48
  them athletically gifted, even the third tier players in the
• 40:52
  NBA right now, could have played in the 60s and 70s.
• 40:54
  They probably be the best player on the best basketball court.
• 40:57
  Because half of them have a 36 vertical leap.
• 41:01
  None of those guys had it in the 60s and the 70s.
• 41:03
  The point guards were like 5, 10.
• 41:08
  That's the problem. I you cannot compare errors.
• 41:13
  That's the problem right now. With comparing errors in
• 41:16
  football baseball, hockey basketball.
• 41:18
  There is no comparison. It's just a different game.
• 41:23
  Different ways to train. Speaking of training NFL
• 41:28
  Network's, Mike Garafolo reported that the Ravens called
• 41:31
  off their blockbuster trade with the Raiders for defensive and
• 41:35
  Maxx Crosby. Claiming it was for medical
• 41:38
  reasons over a fail physical. It was well known that Crosby
• 41:42
  has been rehabbing after meniscus surgery in January but
• 41:47
  his agent. CJ Laboe Mansion how Crosby was
• 41:51
  ahead of schedule and his recovery which was confirmed on
• 41:56
  Twitter by Crosby's. Doctor NFL Network's Ian
• 41:59
  Rapoport reporting that Crosby had already landed in Baltimore
• 42:03
  and was ready to be welcomed by the Ravens but posted a picture
• 42:08
  of him on a plane heading back to Las Vegas to resume his rehab
• 42:13
  program. Crosby later went on social
• 42:15
  media and stated I am a Raider. I am back.
• 42:18
  Ravens general manager. Eric DeCosta told reporters he
• 42:23
  was gutted that he couldn't get the max Crosby trade to work out
• 42:27
  and said, they were planning on getting both Crosby and Trey
• 42:31
  Hendrickson who they signed on Wednesday to a four year, 112
• 42:35
  million dollar contract with 60 million dollars, guaranteed and
• 42:38
  a 20 million dollar signing bonus ESPN's.
• 42:42
  Diane rusini reports that the Ravens had all the information
• 42:45
  on the medical records for Crosby's knee injury and
• 42:48
  believes that the Costa got cold feet at the last second and
• 42:52
  believes that the Ravens are behaving shady and NFL Insider
• 42:56
  Jason Locke and 4A reported that at least two GM's contacted him
• 43:02
  and weren't buying that Crosby fail to his physical and how
• 43:06
  Hendrickson had arguably more Medical Red Flags than Crosby
• 43:11
  did other reporters mentioned, how Eric the Costa and the
• 43:15
  Ravens pulled a shady maneuver last season.
• 43:18
  On Eagle's GM. Howie Roseman claiming Jah here.
• 43:21
  Alexander was medically cleared to play which he wasn't and
• 43:26
  retired 11 days after the trade and eventually forced to pay
• 43:30
  back the Eagles 889,000 dollars. While to Costa did not have to
• 43:36
  give back a six round, draft pick, or medical red flags, and
• 43:40
  then Crosby did other reports mention how, Eric, Dacosta and
• 43:44
  the Ravens pulled a shady maneuver last season on Eagles
• 43:50
  GM. How he Roseman?
• 43:51
  Claiming that our ear? Alexander was medically cleared
• 43:56
  to play, which he wasn't and retired, 11 days after the trade
• 44:01
  and eventually forced him to pay the Eagles back. $889,000
• 44:06
  dollars while the Costa did not have to give back a six-round
• 44:11
  draft pick. Story is crazy, guys.
• 44:18
  This story is crazy. I have never.
• 44:25
  In football history. Watching the NFL in my lifetime.
• 44:31
  Have ever. Seen a player this good.
• 44:35
  This dominant top three top four defensive linemen.
• 44:40
  Get traded to an organization. Traded for two first round,
• 44:44
  draft picks, 28 years old and the prime of his career.
• 44:48
  And this is a meniscus surgery. This isn't an ACL.
• 44:52
  MCL. Achilles injury.
• 44:54
  This is a meniscus injury. Meniscus.
• 45:02
  And doctors. Many, many times.
• 45:05
  And I remember, we're hearing this from basketball players.
• 45:08
  Does anybody remember, Ron Artest met a world peace?
• 45:12
  He was playing for the Lakers. And I remember it.
• 45:16
  He tore his meniscus In the middle of the Season, doctors
• 45:21
  said, in four weeks, he could be back on a basketball court,
• 45:24
  ready for the playoffs. Did he play in the playoffs?
• 45:27
  Yes. Did Lakers win because of Ron
• 45:29
  Artest? Yes.
• 45:30
  Did It win a championship because of Ron Artest you damn?
• 45:34
  Right. They did.
• 45:36
  Remember that guy's? I remember it.
• 45:40
  I have seen Adrian, Peterson tear his ACL, and come back in
• 45:44
  six and a half seven months. It was at 100%.
• 45:48
  He was an elite running back. When he came back, he was
• 45:51
  breaking records. Maxx.
• 45:54
  Crosby is 28 years old. In the prime of his football
• 46:00
  career. Played on a crappy Raiders team
• 46:04
  last year. Still was wanting a one of the
• 46:06
  Elite pass rushers in all of the NFL.
• 46:11
  And the Ravens. An organization that had been
• 46:15
  searching for a pass rusher for years.
• 46:18
  John Harbaugh has been bitching and moaning for years.
• 46:21
  When are you getting me a pass rusher?
• 46:23
  Where you get me a pass rusher, you finally get a pass rusher,
• 46:26
  you fly him. To the Ravens facilities.
• 46:32
  And because Eric DeCosta. Right.
• 46:36
  It's am I right? Am I pronounce his name, right,
• 46:38
  because I like messing up GM's names.
• 46:41
  Eric DeCosta. The general manager of this
• 46:46
  organization that has always been in Elite organization.
• 46:51
  One of the best organizations in all a professional football.
• 46:57
  And I remember, Ozzie Newsome. Everybody knows who Ozzie
• 47:00
  Newsome is. This guy is one of the greatest
• 47:02
  Talent evaluators of all time. You know, hired, Eric, Dacosta,
• 47:07
  you know, was a part of Ozzy newsom's team of future
• 47:12
  assistant GMS. It was Eric Dacosta who hired
• 47:17
  Eric? DeCosta, Ozzie Newsome.
• 47:21
  And honestly Eric Dacosta is a complete moron.
• 47:25
  Godless. because if I was Maxx Crosby, I would have went on
• 47:32
  National Television. I would have made sure.
• 47:35
  You know what, I'm not jumping out of plane.
• 47:37
  I'm going to Baltimore Maryland, I go to the biggest television
• 47:43
  organization, NBC, what, whatever.
• 47:46
  And I'm having an interview, I'm going on for an interview.
• 47:50
  And I'm embarrassing. The ravings already
• 47:51
  organization, but I got to give Max cross be a lot of credit.
• 47:56
  Because my Maxx Crosby is more of a man than I am.
• 47:59
  Because if anybody did that to me, I'm killing the Ravens.
• 48:04
  I'm absolutely destroying the Ravens for what they did to me,
• 48:07
  my family. Was expecting to move to
• 48:10
  Baltimore my daughter and my wife flew with me to be
• 48:15
  announced, as a future, Ravens defensive lineman and to fly
• 48:21
  right back. And I'm telling you, Max was a
• 48:23
  man about this, because if it was me, I'm back with the
• 48:26
  Raiders, I would have said screw the Raiders.
• 48:28
  Screw, the Ravens. Screw everybody.
• 48:32
  I work my ass off year after year after year on the first one
• 48:36
  in the facilities in the last one to leave.
• 48:38
  How many Raider guys did we have on the show?
• 48:40
  How many players do we have in the show?
• 48:42
  Saying that Maxx Crosby is the hardest worker in the league and
• 48:45
  because of a meniscus tear. Hey We're Not Gonna trade too
• 48:50
  first round draft picks for him. You don't know what those first
• 48:53
  round draft picks are going to be.
• 48:56
  And I got news for the Ravens. Let's go back and look at their
• 48:59
  draft stock of players over the last couple years.
• 49:01
  Their best players are players that they brought in from free
• 49:04
  agency. Who's the best pass rusher right
• 49:09
  now, speedy? It was probably, it was probably
• 49:12
  one year of Kyle Van Nuy at 2024 was a free agent who's the
• 49:16
  second best pass rush. Oh yeah.
• 49:17
  Oh wait. The kid that they drafted now
• 49:19
  they got rid of, he's with the Commander's.
• 49:20
  Now who's the best linebacker Roblox?
• 49:23
  Was he appointed that organization from the beginning?
• 49:26
  No, I can't from the Chicago Bears.
• 49:29
  Every single player on that roster.
• 49:31
  That's any good. A free agents.
• 49:34
  Lamar Jackson and Hamilton are the only two guys that I can see
• 49:38
  that are to me any importance to this organization now, That's
• 49:44
  it. I want to hear about Zay flowers
• 49:46
  because they flowers is up and down.
• 49:47
  They flower is the second tier 3rd tier wide receiver.
• 49:50
  This guy was drafted in the first round, I drafted every
• 49:53
  single year in my fantasy league and every single year he
• 49:55
  disappoints me. Andrews is a great player but
• 50:00
  Mark Andrews on it. The tail end of his career.
• 50:05
  Maxx Crosby is a border. He's gonna be a borderline Hall
• 50:09
  of Famer. And you pass up on him to get
• 50:12
  Trey Hendrickson. I know no offense to Trey
• 50:14
  Hendrickson. There is no way in hell paying
• 50:18
  Trey Hendrickson 112 million dollars. 16 million dollars
• 50:21
  guaranteed in 20 million dollars of signing bonus.
• 50:23
  They were going to get Max Crosby and Trey Hendrickson no
• 50:26
  way in hell. Who you lie to Eric.
• 50:29
  You think we're not stupid. You think that dumb?
• 50:33
  There's no way you're going to be able to bring both those guys
• 50:35
  because in two years Max Crosby's gonna want a big
• 50:38
  contract. How the hell is that going to
• 50:39
  work? It doesn't make sense.
• 50:45
  Because you know, this is his final year, right?
• 50:46
  This final year of his contract and then he franchise him and
• 50:50
  then he becomes a free agent. Am I right?
• 50:53
  Speed. Am I right?
• 50:53
  I think he reeks. I think he's got one more after
• 50:56
  this. So he's got two years.
• 50:59
  So they could franchise him three years.
• 51:00
  He'll still be 31 years old right?
• 51:02
  He's still eligible for another contract, a bigger contract and
• 51:06
  I, he'll still be an Elite pass rusher in this league.
• 51:09
  I can guarantee it. And I'm not taking away from the
• 51:13
  talent that triangle is. But ask me this.
• 51:15
  Who would you rather want? Crosby or Hendrickson Speedy
• 51:19
  Crosby. How about you fish?
• 51:22
  Who would you rather? Crosby or Hendrickson.
• 51:28
  It's not closed bro. Like for me Crosby in the Run
• 51:32
  game is a freaking animal. Like there are more highlights
• 51:37
  of him breaking through the line.
• 51:38
  Getting tackles for loss if you don't realize how impactful that
• 51:41
  is in a game when Hendrickson is truly a pass rusher, he's not
• 51:45
  much of a run Defender, everyone ran on the Bengals.
• 51:48
  As we know, they they just he's a different player, you know,
• 51:53
  he's kind of just kind of push the edge and he's got enough
• 51:55
  moves and he's so physical. And he's Relentless, he doesn't
• 51:58
  stop in the past, but he doesn't have the same kind of run
• 52:00
  stopping. So I, you think that they're
• 52:03
  going to still have to find a way to address it, you know, in
• 52:06
  Baltimore but at the same time, Dude, it's so ridiculous that
• 52:11
  they did this because they chickened out man, they
• 52:14
  chickened out. They didn't want to send those
• 52:16
  two first-round picks. They got spooked.
• 52:19
  I mean if it was just a meniscus, everyone knew about
• 52:23
  the meniscus, he was rehabbing it openly you could see the
• 52:26
  videos on his socials. It's not like it wasn't known
• 52:30
  and everyone said he was ahead of schedule.
• 52:32
  So, what was it really? And this is the second straight
• 52:35
  year. This this gems done this.
• 52:38
  I obviously, believe that they didn't want to deal with the
• 52:42
  back end of stuff that could happen with Maxx Crosby.
• 52:45
  Now, he's six years clean. I know he smokes weed, but every
• 52:48
  single and NFL player smokes weed and you're allowed to smoke
• 52:51
  weed. Now, in the NFL, I don't know if
• 52:53
  anybody saw his video, he was partying because it was his
• 52:56
  sixth year anniversary of not drinking.
• 52:58
  I don't know if anybody saw the video, it was on Instagram when
• 53:01
  it was announced that he was traded to the Ravens and
• 53:04
  everybody went crazy in the video everybody.
• 53:06
  And he was smoking a joint. I'd probably be smoking a joint
• 53:10
  too. If I got traded, I know I'm
• 53:12
  going to an organization. Actually probably is going to be
• 53:16
  a contender coming. This coming season with a new
• 53:18
  coach. Lamar Jackson at 100% healthy.
• 53:22
  I expect Lamar Jackson to be one of the best players in the
• 53:25
  league this year. If he's 100%, he's going to be
• 53:27
  more excited with a new coach. Not have to deal with John
• 53:31
  Harbaugh's, crap on and off the field.
• 53:34
  You get mocked, Maxx, Crosby. And I again going back to 3006,
• 53:38
  he was wrongly treated by The Bangles.
• 53:39
  He should have been extended to three years ago but was never
• 53:43
  extended and I I'm happy for 3 Hendrickson.
• 53:46
  I am, I'm seriously happy for Trey I'm not, I feel bad for a
• 53:52
  guy like Max Crosby because this guy wanted out, he doesn't want
• 53:54
  to deal with Tom Brady. He doesn't want to deal with
• 53:57
  Guerrero. He doesn't want to deal with the
• 53:59
  organization as a whole and he has obviously great friends over
• 54:03
  there and he loves Vegas. I don't want to play for them.
• 54:06
  I don't want to go there, I don't want to deal with that.
• 54:10
  It's absolutely embarrassing. When you think about this
• 54:14
  organization as a whole and what the Ravens stand for now and
• 54:17
  honestly, they've been a joke for the last three seasons.
• 54:20
  How long is it going to take the organization and ownership
• 54:24
  knowing that this organization hasn't done right by the players
• 54:28
  hasn't done right by your Star Quarterback, to get rid of Eric
• 54:33
  Dacosta? Because the problem right now is
• 54:35
  not the coaching staff, I would have kept John Harbaugh I would
• 54:39
  have kept him, he was happy there, he was coming back.
• 54:42
  Lamar Jackson came out and spoke to ownership and spoke to the
• 54:46
  GM. Eric DeCosta made that decision
• 54:48
  on parting ways. It was Eric to cost, it wasn't
• 54:50
  ownership just so everybody knows.
• 54:52
  It had nothing to do with ownership and everything to do
• 54:55
  with Eric Dacosta. Eric DeCosta called John
• 54:58
  Harbaugh into his office and he told him, he says listen, we're
• 55:02
  gonna go, we're gonna go another route.
• 55:03
  We're gonna bring somebody young here and, and to revolutionize
• 55:07
  our defense and make our defense back to what it was in the 90s.
• 55:11
  And the early 2000s, where we Elite defense, because we're
• 55:14
  just having been that Elite defense that we once were, is
• 55:18
  that John Harbors for know, it's the GM's fault because he can't
• 55:22
  draft, right? He can't bring in the right free
• 55:24
  agents. He hasn't done anything right
• 55:26
  for the organization. That's the problem, guys.
• 55:30
  Those are the facts. and if your Ravens fan, And you think this
• 55:36
  was okay, shame on you. Shame on you.
• 55:39
  Because there were two doctors that I saw on two radio shows
• 55:43
  today. That spoke about a meniscus tear
• 55:47
  and said that is the least problem on an NFL player you
• 55:51
  have to worry about the least. Think about that.
• 55:55
  He's a defensive lineman. Remember when Suggs tore his
• 55:58
  Achilles? He came back, he was an elite
• 56:01
  Defender. Lee pass, rusher.
• 56:03
  I remember Guess what, guys? There is no Terrell Suggs on
• 56:09
  this team anymore. There is no Ray Lewis on this
• 56:12
  team anymore. There's there is a kind of there
• 56:15
  is a read on this team. Ed Reed Hamilton is in every
• 56:18
  type of prototype player, a little different, a little
• 56:20
  bigger, little more athletic. They don't have those players
• 56:25
  anymore and I'm sorry. Trey Hendrickson is nowhere
• 56:28
  close to Terrell songs. I'm sorry, he's not but I tell
• 56:33
  you this Maxx Crosby is you got, if you had Maxx Crosby, you're
• 56:38
  Contender, are you contender in? As far as I'm concerned in the
• 56:43
  AFC, North know, You're not, you went from a contender to a
• 56:48
  non-contender awful, a terrible move, a terrible decision
• 56:52
  because you wanted to keep your two first round draft picks.
• 56:55
  Which by the way, if we brought up their first round talents
• 56:58
  over the last three years besides Hamilton has been
• 57:01
  garbage garbage, Yeah, I was gonna mention also, the fact
• 57:06
  that they haven't been able to draft, well, at key positions,
• 57:08
  receiver, and address where we've mentioned already corner,
• 57:11
  has been like that too. After Marlon, Humphrey, they
• 57:13
  have not drafted well in that and Ozzie Newsome kind of
• 57:15
  transitioned out in 2018 to 2019 and a lot of those guys since
• 57:20
  then they seem like they're good value on paper.
• 57:22
  And just, they just haven't been there.
• 57:23
  And I think even though they've had some good statistical
• 57:26
  defenses on paper. They haven't done well against
• 57:28
  key teams, good offenses in the playoffs and obviously that's
• 57:31
  affected them advancing into a Super Bowl with Lamar Jackson.
• 57:34
  I was here's this, here's their, this is their last three first
• 57:38
  round draft picks. 2025 Malachi, Starks safety from Georgia.
• 57:44
  He's okay. 2024 Nate, Wiggins. Nate Wiggins.
• 57:50
  I don't even know if he's starting on this.
• 57:51
  Yeah, he's been in an hour of the injury, a lot with a lot of
• 57:53
  hamstring problems. Carpets.
• 57:55
  And say flowers up and down too. High of a draft pick.
• 57:59
  A lot of people thought they fly was was an early second round
• 58:02
  draft pick. He fell to them, they went with
• 58:04
  Ziplock and say he's not bad. He an elite wide receiver.
• 58:08
  He barely breaks 1,000 a year. Yeah.
• 58:11
  Now it's very inconsistent at those key positions and I was
• 58:14
  like, Kyle Hamilton's a freak athlete Stark's, a freak freak
• 58:16
  after that probably wasn't going to fall there but that's all
• 58:19
  really. They're known for.
• 58:19
  I don't think the casa deserves necessarily so much credit for
• 58:22
  those kind of things. He's good with defensive
• 58:24
  tackles, he's good with some offense alignment, but that's
• 58:26
  really it, and that's not the sign of a good GM.
• 58:29
  Now, on the side of the Shady Side of it.
• 58:31
  Now, when you're dealing with these misdiagnosed injuries,
• 58:34
  like this is something that we have bashed, other organizations
• 58:37
  for, in the past, we've bashed, even good coaches.
• 58:40
  Like remember when people were complain about Pete Carroll like
• 58:43
  Pete, got missed doing the injury reports in the past and
• 58:46
  they got a light bit for that. But again, it is not the same
• 58:50
  extreme when you're dealing with somebody's trade value and
• 58:52
  you're dealing with somebody who want clearly wants out of one,
• 58:55
  toxic organization and the Raiders to go to another.
• 58:58
  Now, like you said, I am happy for Trey and he got out of toxic
• 59:01
  organization. So with the Bangles, and he's
• 59:02
  trying to stick it to the Bangles by now playing in their
• 59:04
  division, fine, but the Ravens Not got off the hook for the
• 59:08
  misdiagnosis of these other injuries.
• 59:10
  The gyro Alexander last year with Lamar Jackson in 2021,
• 59:14
  there was belief, oh, they're in a playoff hunt, he's gonna come
• 59:16
  back. And he could never come back
• 59:17
  because they Ravens were always messing up with his injuries
• 59:19
  too. So, Tyler Huntley was playing at
• 59:21
  the end of the year and they collapse and missed the
• 59:23
  playoffs. And Eric Dacosta was saying to a
• 59:27
  lot of these guys, oh, we're still gonna make it, we're still
• 59:28
  gonna be there. And John Harbaugh took the blame
• 59:30
  a lot of people thought he was gonna get fired that year
• 59:32
  because of the way they handled it and same kind of thing with
• 59:34
  Ronnie Stanley, Marlon Humphrey. A lot of these good players that
• 59:37
  they have are all injury prone and they don't know how to
• 59:40
  manage it, right. So there is definitely some
• 59:42
  shadiness going on here because why you don't want to treat too
• 59:44
  first round, draft picks, and you're doing with the physical
• 59:47
  four days after the trade happened.
• 59:49
  If it was two, I would understand it.
• 59:51
  If it was somebody in Crosby, they didn't get surgery, okay?
• 59:53
  That's different, it's four days removed from the trade.
• 59:56
  And now you're complaining about it on the same day.
• 59:59
  You just happened to meet with Trey Henderson's agent.
• 1:00:01
  Yeah, that's a little fishy to me.
• 1:00:02
  So, all right, ladies and gentlemen, we call this the NFL
• 1:00:06
  rip around All right, ladies and gentlemen, here we go.
• 1:00:15
  All right, let's start it up. It was some news that broke
• 1:00:18
  right or the start of the show, aerial, Tyler Murray behind the
• 1:00:24
  one year contract with Vikings. For one year, they're going to
• 1:00:28
  pay the minimum as you know, whenever a guy gets cut and he's
• 1:00:32
  owed a lot of money other domestic Aid or you can sign the
• 1:00:35
  minimum width in responding with, but obviously it's a
• 1:00:38
  penalty of the team doesn't matter where the money comes
• 1:00:40
  from might, as well come from the Cardinals 36.8 million.
• 1:00:45
  Owed to Murray only 1.3 from the Vikings, the rest from the
• 1:00:48
  cards. So, Now, it's obvious a
• 1:00:52
  competition between Kyler Murray, former first, pick
• 1:00:55
  overall and JJ McCarthy. The guy they went with over Sam
• 1:01:00
  darnold. The GM was fired.
• 1:01:02
  No one is. No one's loyal to McCarthy
• 1:01:05
  anymore. What's gonna happen?
• 1:01:06
  First of all, Kyla, Murray going over there to Minnesota, makes
• 1:01:11
  absolutely no sense. And here's the thing, I would
• 1:01:14
  have bought, I would have brought back her cousins that
• 1:01:16
  would have made more sense. This is a guy that has more
• 1:01:19
  experience. Under the two leads over there,
• 1:01:21
  the coaching staff over there, he was very successful over
• 1:01:24
  there, he played very well with Justin Jefferson.
• 1:01:26
  I think Justin Jefferson probably would have rather her
• 1:01:30
  cousins then Kyler Murray. Kyler Murray is to me a distinct
• 1:01:33
  personality. A guy that doesn't really get
• 1:01:36
  along with anybody in the locker room speaks in a third person, a
• 1:01:39
  little creepy, a little bit crazy, a little bit out there in
• 1:01:43
  his own ways. Especially speaking to the press
• 1:01:45
  to me this is a flat out terrible move and also it tells
• 1:01:50
  me As a quarterback in JJ McCarthy is that you don't trust
• 1:01:53
  me. As a quarterback, you don't
• 1:01:54
  believe in me because you're bringing in a guy, that's what
• 1:01:56
  28 years old still. It's kind of in a prime of his
• 1:02:00
  career and still has a lot of football left.
• 1:02:01
  If he shows off his arm strength and his ability to get out of
• 1:02:04
  the pocket, this is a bad move. If I was JJ McCarthy and I was
• 1:02:08
  the Minnesota Vikings organization.
• 1:02:10
  Yeah, it's one of those things we talked about with Atlanta,
• 1:02:12
  like we bring in two similar of a type of injury risk, a
• 1:02:15
  quarterback to an panics. Same guy, dangerous JJ McCarthy,
• 1:02:17
  we talked about, repeat bursick, like he's only play, like 15
• 1:02:20
  games in his career already, Kyler Murray's, probably only
• 1:02:23
  played that in the last few years, and you're going to deal
• 1:02:25
  with somebody that I didn't even know he's right?
• 1:02:27
  He's either, you, I think bringing back her costumes with
• 1:02:30
  a probably been the better thing.
• 1:02:31
  He's familiar with that skiing, he's comfortable with that type
• 1:02:33
  of organization. Like, why not do that?
• 1:02:35
  Instead of bringing in Kyle Murray.
• 1:02:36
  I mean the JJ McCarthy thing is just so such a bad look for
• 1:02:40
  them. I mean there was some stats
• 1:02:42
  Speedy that were just discussing from macarthy last year.
• 1:02:46
  Every time he went to his left, his completion percentage went
• 1:02:49
  down like 15% from when he was a ghost in the middle or to the
• 1:02:53
  right. He's just you know, that's like
• 1:02:55
  the Zoolander you can't go left until the end of the movie type
• 1:02:58
  of thing. Very strange situation for him
• 1:03:01
  but you know look the Vikings they got egg on their face.
• 1:03:05
  They had the Super Bowl winning quarterback.
• 1:03:07
  They gave him away. Now they're going for the guy
• 1:03:10
  that plays Call of Duty more than watches film.
• 1:03:12
  Interesting, let's move on to a guy who should have gotten a
• 1:03:16
  really big contract ends up getting a nice contract anyway,
• 1:03:20
  he was transition tag, of course talking about Daniel Jones,
• 1:03:23
  former Giants starting quarterback went to the Colts
• 1:03:27
  had a you know I guess a little bit more than half like 3/5 of a
• 1:03:32
  season before he toured the leg fractured leg Speedy fractured
• 1:03:35
  and he toured the Achilles, he gets a two-year, 88 million
• 1:03:38
  dollar deal with the Colts. That's going to keep him there.
• 1:03:42
  They're making sure that he's their guy, whatever they do
• 1:03:45
  until he's ready. They're kind of saying, you
• 1:03:48
  didn't know last year, you're going to be our guy.
• 1:03:50
  Absolutely dead enough. I mean, come on.
• 1:03:52
  He was up for an MVP, five, six, seven games in the season.
• 1:03:56
  Everybody was saying now. Wow, this Guys come back,
• 1:03:59
  failure of the Year having a sensational year and Richardson
• 1:04:02
  was supposed to start for this team when he was coming back
• 1:04:04
  from injury, then he had some kind of ear problem or eye
• 1:04:08
  problem and he was out for a significant portion of the OTAs
• 1:04:12
  and and and obviously practicing and all that other stuff and
• 1:04:16
  preseason games and then Daniel Jones wins the job.
• 1:04:18
  And what Daniel Jones did this year was show you that he could
• 1:04:21
  still play the quarterback position.
• 1:04:23
  He can still be practically a superb quarterback.
• 1:04:26
  I wouldn't say Elite but top 10 quarterback that could do all
• 1:04:30
  the things that you need a quarterback to do and stike in
• 1:04:32
  loves him. I can absolutely loves him.
• 1:04:35
  Two years 44 million, it's about right a top quarterback.
• 1:04:39
  A top 10 quarterback before he went down.
• 1:04:41
  I thought he was. I would probably rate him nine
• 1:04:43
  or ten this year before he went down the last two or three
• 1:04:47
  games, but he heard his leg. I think he had a fractured leg
• 1:04:51
  one. He was playing in those games
• 1:04:52
  before he tours it. Kills and honestly, if anybody
• 1:04:54
  knows about our Rogers, when he tore his killing with the New
• 1:04:57
  York Jets, that was stories. Coming out of the Jets preseason
• 1:05:00
  and and during Hard Knocks that he heard his leg in that, they
• 1:05:04
  thought there was a fracture in his leg, but he played, he
• 1:05:06
  thought he can play with it and what happened?
• 1:05:08
  He tore his Achilles. What?
• 1:05:09
  Four minutes three minutes into the game?
• 1:05:11
  Well actually, well they they started on the defense outside
• 1:05:15
  so it was like two minutes in the game when they got the ball,
• 1:05:17
  two, three plays, he was out for the season.
• 1:05:19
  Daniel Jones to me did enough this year to prove that he can
• 1:05:23
  play in Shane steichen's offense, and being a workable
• 1:05:28
  and good player for this team in this organization.
• 1:05:30
  Yeah, it's the opposite of what the Vikings you get?
• 1:05:33
  Somebody that is comfortable with your offense.
• 1:05:34
  Now the reports were saying that his age was trying to push for
• 1:05:37
  four year deal, which I don't think was gonna happen because
• 1:05:39
  of the tornadoes at that time and the other injury he was
• 1:05:42
  suffering even throughout the year too.
• 1:05:44
  So getting two years, I think it's a good compromise, both
• 1:05:46
  ways. I was questioning the Alps
• 1:05:47
  contract at the time but again, they're trying to just keep
• 1:05:49
  everything together. I think it's a little much but
• 1:05:51
  still, you're trying to keep stability there for a team that
• 1:05:54
  needs it down the Colts losing too offensive, and we'll see how
• 1:05:57
  much that affects them braid. Smith and Smith already signed
• 1:05:59
  elsewhere. I think we're still a free agent
• 1:06:00
  and that'll be a big key for Jones in order to keep him
• 1:06:03
  healthy. But go to move on the value
• 1:06:04
  wise, I will talk about some of the other lineman a little bit
• 1:06:07
  Speedy but I wanted to talk about an NFC East team that's
• 1:06:11
  not the New York football Giants.
• 1:06:12
  The Washington really you're gonna go with anybody but the
• 1:06:16
  Giants Well Errol, that's just because later tonight in the
• 1:06:21
  concrete jungle, I know we will have some time to talk about the
• 1:06:26
  Giants and a surprising player. They decided to re-sign, I want
• 1:06:30
  to throw up in my mouth even thinking about it, but the
• 1:06:33
  commanders kind of just to hatch it to that defense.
• 1:06:36
  That was a horrendous, horrendous unit last year,
• 1:06:40
  obviously suffered some injuries, but it was really bad.
• 1:06:43
  They went and got, I'm gonna give you a list.
• 1:06:45
  We already talked about a dafa OA.
• 1:06:47
  Leo Chenal linebacker from the Chiefs three years, 25 just
• 1:06:52
  under 25 million. Tim settled, Junior, pretty
• 1:06:55
  good. Defensive tackle for the Texans.
• 1:06:56
  He's a top 30 rated guy in PFF, three years, 24 million.
• 1:07:02
  These mid-level deals, and macrobertson the corner from the
• 1:07:05
  Lions. Two years 16 million Nic crossed
• 1:07:08
  the safety, from the coldest two years 14.
• 1:07:10
  It's all the same type of contract and they grabbed Chase
• 1:07:13
  on Caleb on Chase, on from the Patriots for a 12 million dollar
• 1:07:17
  flyer and a man who From the Chiefs as an edge rusher, as
• 1:07:21
  well for seven other guy that tore his leg and his comeback.
• 1:07:25
  Maybe not the same. It's just a team that realized
• 1:07:28
  they weren't where they needed to be if they get healthy.
• 1:07:31
  And they have this defense, right?
• 1:07:33
  How dangerous are they next year?
• 1:07:34
  Very, very dangerous. Dan Quinn is one of the best
• 1:07:37
  defensive Minds in the NFL. They had problems last year
• 1:07:40
  staying healthy on the offensive side of the ball and the
• 1:07:42
  defensive side of the ball. They added six even seven
• 1:07:45
  players in free agency, guys, that fit Dan Quinn's type of
• 1:07:49
  defense. They're gonna get the
• 1:07:50
  quarterback, they're gonna Blitz.
• 1:07:51
  And and that's what we expect from Dan Quinn's defense.
• 1:07:54
  I think this is a great great, all of them.
• 1:07:56
  Great great moves, it puts the commanders in a very good
• 1:07:59
  position this year. They were a playoff team, two
• 1:08:02
  years ago last year they were they went all the way to an NFC
• 1:08:04
  title game in in if they're rookies first season, Daniel's
• 1:08:09
  first season, that he got hurt last year, he had a terrible
• 1:08:12
  injury late in the season, Dan Quinn and never brought him back
• 1:08:15
  into the season with all the injuries that he was dealing
• 1:08:18
  with. Hopefully Daniels could stay
• 1:08:20
  healthy all season long. If he does Jayden, Daniels is
• 1:08:23
  going to be on top of the League's best when it comes to
• 1:08:26
  running and moving outside of the pocket and making every
• 1:08:28
  single throw. I I think the the Washington
• 1:08:31
  commanders are going to be one of the better teams in the NFC
• 1:08:34
  this year. If everybody works out on the
• 1:08:36
  defensive side of the ball, everyone knew they over
• 1:08:38
  performed a defense in that 2024 season because they're Dan Quinn
• 1:08:41
  was trying to rebuild a unit. That was one of the worst in the
• 1:08:43
  league, the year before, and they just happened to have some
• 1:08:45
  more performers that year and they obviously had natural
• 1:08:47
  aggression after that, I was Critical with the OA contract.
• 1:08:49
  I don't know. That was a lot to give him at
• 1:08:50
  the time, I love Chanel. I think that's a really good
• 1:08:52
  deal for somebody that I think is been a very good run stopping
• 1:08:55
  young linebacker too. For a while cross has been very
• 1:08:57
  underrated to, so, that's some good PFF stints with the Colts
• 1:09:00
  as well. We'll see on Chase on I thought
• 1:09:02
  he had a good year. Last year, he's not overly
• 1:09:04
  skilled all around, but I think the quantity of the defense is
• 1:09:06
  really a good thing for the Commander's team with the
• 1:09:07
  offensive they could have. Yeah.
• 1:09:09
  Chase sounds like one of those wild card, maybe he's like gets
• 1:09:12
  hot. He's always been a streaky guy.
• 1:09:14
  He's Speed rusher, some team, you know, like it's really a
• 1:09:19
  game script type of thing. Like, if you have I mean the
• 1:09:22
  best of all time in recent memories, our boy that didn't
• 1:09:26
  play for. The that was on the Eagles that
• 1:09:28
  didn't want to play for the Jets.
• 1:09:29
  What's his name speed again? Yeah, Hassan Reddick.
• 1:09:34
  You know, just like on some team against some teams you can't
• 1:09:38
  stop him but if you have a guy that can handle speed rushes,
• 1:09:41
  it's not much of a player, so it's kinda find the right time
• 1:09:44
  to pick them. Let's get into some of the
• 1:09:46
  different position groups where we see some different guys on
• 1:09:50
  the Move. We're going to defensive tackle.
• 1:09:52
  There's a trade. The Cowboys traded.
• 1:09:54
  Osuna to the 49ers. What about right there?
• 1:09:59
  Well, the Giants had the other crappier I like him at the time.
• 1:10:03
  I remember that. So I learned the name back then
• 1:10:07
  Jonathan Allen was a cap casualty for Minnesota, right
• 1:10:12
  after one year after going there wasn't bad Cincinnati who needed
• 1:10:15
  it in. The worst way Hargrave got
• 1:10:17
  coming off of an injury. He goes to Green Bay, gets a
• 1:10:21
  nice contract. And our old boy, Sean Robinson
• 1:10:23
  had a really good year last year.
• 1:10:25
  Tampa Bay. Get some beef in the middle.
• 1:10:27
  It looks like all these teams are trying to relinquish.
• 1:10:31
  Some of the losses they've had in the office season and again
• 1:10:34
  all these teams are going to make moves you're going to bring
• 1:10:36
  him good players. And every single one of these
• 1:10:39
  guys are going to help out for all the losses that they've had
• 1:10:41
  Jonathan Allen. I think is a great player.
• 1:10:43
  I remember I think the commanders drafted him, he was a
• 1:10:46
  great defensive lineman, I think he played for Alabama and he
• 1:10:49
  slowly became a star player on that defensive line even the
• 1:10:53
  year that they went to the NFC title game, he was the one of
• 1:10:56
  the leaders on that defense and he moved on.
• 1:10:58
  He went to Minnesota didn't work out over there and now he's
• 1:11:01
  heading to Cincinnati all these guys oh they're going to add A
• 1:11:05
  different style of offense or defense to this team and I think
• 1:11:08
  they're going to be gradually fitting for these teams and
• 1:11:11
  teams that are looking to grow, as you know, defensive side
• 1:11:15
  defensive team or an offensive team.
• 1:11:16
  So I like a high grades is a great player too.
• 1:11:18
  So I I like them all. I think they're all great moves.
• 1:11:21
  We'll see. I'm interested to see what Green
• 1:11:23
  Bay is going to do now. That Micah Parsons is coming
• 1:11:25
  back from a tear, a torn Achilles and is he going to be
• 1:11:30
  the same explosive player? He just got a lot of money 60.
• 1:11:32
  He's making like 60 something million dollars a year, am I
• 1:11:36
  right? No 4848, I'm sorry, 48 million
• 1:11:39
  dollars a year. He's a second highest player.
• 1:11:41
  I'm not even second. He's the highest player not a
• 1:11:45
  quarterback in the NFL so he's making a lot of money.
• 1:11:47
  Green Bay's paying a lot of money.
• 1:11:49
  I want to see what this team is with him, our grave.
• 1:11:53
  I, that's, that's gonna be the interesting thing with the, to
• 1:11:56
  me, the NFC North, which was supposed to be the best division
• 1:12:00
  in all of football last year and teams just kind of the teams
• 1:12:04
  that really showed up. To play were honestly the
• 1:12:08
  Chicago Bears, the Green Bay Packers fell off.
• 1:12:11
  And even Detroit fell off this year.
• 1:12:13
  I want to see more Minnesota fell off.
• 1:12:15
  I think all four of these teams should show up and play.
• 1:12:19
  Well I think all of them can make.
• 1:12:20
  I wouldn't say all of them, make the playoffs next year, but
• 1:12:22
  three out of the four should make the playoffs next year with
• 1:12:25
  the talent that they have. And that's why the Viking, I
• 1:12:26
  think let go. Both these defensive tackles
• 1:12:28
  Hargrave was a cop canceled. See, like you said in Allen the
• 1:12:31
  digested work over there. After they traded for him from
• 1:12:33
  Washington. They need help in their run
• 1:12:34
  defense. It was their younger guys, they
• 1:12:35
  played better but for Green Bay, they need to find these cheap
• 1:12:37
  options on defense. They are not very high on.
• 1:12:40
  The Cathy were barely in the positives at the beginning of
• 1:12:43
  the offseason and caps and they lose their defensive coordinator
• 1:12:45
  too. So trying to find some new fits
• 1:12:46
  to make it work. There is gonna be a question for
• 1:12:48
  them odisha out of the Niners helps her run defensive unit
• 1:12:51
  that struggled in second, oh, for sure.
• 1:12:54
  And Robinson, pretty steady veteran.
• 1:12:56
  Wherever he's gone play next to Vita.
• 1:12:57
  That's Jeff be a lot of beef. Like you were saying this.
• 1:12:59
  Well, that's that's one way to stop people.
• 1:13:02
  You know, in the Run game is just make it so that the guys
• 1:13:04
  are so big, there's nowhere for you to go pretty hard to do
• 1:13:08
  anything about that. So I wanted to just mention We
• 1:13:12
  got, I think the Kwon Jones is a guy that's still available.
• 1:13:16
  Is there a run stuffer? As a veteran defensive tackle
• 1:13:20
  and the big name? That's still out there is DJ
• 1:13:22
  reader. Now, as someone still looking
• 1:13:24
  for run, Cincinnati, should never got rid of him.
• 1:13:27
  First place since. Now, he's gonna, yeah, since
• 1:13:31
  Cincinnati certainly could use them but I don't think they know
• 1:13:35
  how to spend money on their defense.
• 1:13:36
  So, let's move on to a different position group.
• 1:13:39
  Let's go to corner and there were some big names off the
• 1:13:43
  board, pretty early, and some names that got paid cordale,
• 1:13:46
  flott. I mean, we're gonna talk about
• 1:13:48
  Tennessee in a second, but let's start with the top corner on the
• 1:13:51
  market. Was Jamel, Dean, he goes to the
• 1:13:52
  Steelers on a nice deal right here.
• 1:13:55
  It says he got. Where is it?
• 1:13:59
  Lost it. Here it is Jamel.
• 1:14:02
  Dean gets agrees to terms with the Steelers on a three-year
• 1:14:07
  36.75 million dollar deal. He gets to pair on the opposite
• 1:14:12
  side of Joey, Porter Jr. He was thought of as the top
• 1:14:15
  Corner in the market, second Corner in the market, was the
• 1:14:17
  Chiefs Jalen Watson. Watson goes to the Rams.
• 1:14:21
  So the Rams revamped that entire secondary now.
• 1:14:24
  This off season, Tariq Woolen gets a one year.
• 1:14:28
  Proved deal with the Eagles. One year about 50 up to 15
• 1:14:31
  million, the keywords in these contracts, until we actually
• 1:14:35
  hear what they are up to 15 million, which means it could be
• 1:14:39
  like half that Robert Stella and Chris and Brian dabel, great
• 1:14:43
  former Giants. And jets that have joined this
• 1:14:45
  team, they just gave cordale flott three years. 45 million
• 1:14:51
  dollars off of his first ever healthy season playing I guess,
• 1:14:55
  you could say slightly above average football for the first
• 1:14:57
  time, dear in the headlights, Robert, Bambi Salah, ladies and
• 1:15:03
  gentlemen, Cordale flott, please out of all these wide.
• 1:15:08
  I'm sorry. Out of all these Corners.
• 1:15:09
  He would be the least one. I would be interested in Dean is
• 1:15:13
  one of the more talented defensive backs in all of the
• 1:15:16
  league him going there for three years, Pittsburgh adds a dynamic
• 1:15:19
  Corner, which they've been lacking over the last couple
• 1:15:21
  years. I Porter, Porter Jr.
• 1:15:24
  Is a good player but I don't think he's the number one.
• 1:15:25
  I think he's more of an opportune.
• 1:15:26
  Now you had Dean now you have Porter Jr, on one side and Dina
• 1:15:30
  on the other side. So I think they're going to be
• 1:15:31
  very, very good handsome. Watson going over there to the
• 1:15:35
  LA Rams, give some more depth. That's what they need.
• 1:15:38
  They've added McDuffie. Now, they have so much depth
• 1:15:41
  over there something that they lacked throughout the playoffs
• 1:15:43
  last year and probably why they lost against Seattle.
• 1:15:45
  I thought they had a very good chance against Seattle, but the
• 1:15:48
  corner play was really really bad and Woolen.
• 1:15:51
  Very surprised he went to Philadelphia but I'm not
• 1:15:54
  surprised because for some reason all these dark corners
• 1:15:58
  and up and Philadelphia think about it, you go back.
• 1:16:02
  There was a Detroit Lions. But enslave that went over
• 1:16:05
  there. All these guys seem to go to the
• 1:16:09
  Philadelphia Eagles, they have the best best GM in all how he
• 1:16:13
  rose Ministry, best GM in all of football.
• 1:16:15
  I don't think you can argue that Schneider.
• 1:16:17
  I think is the second from Seattle.
• 1:16:19
  He is incredible. Incredible Talent evaluator.
• 1:16:22
  And he knows how to find them. How about the Jets getting,
• 1:16:25
  right? Yeah.
• 1:16:26
  People forget about that, right? Going to the New York Jets and a
• 1:16:29
  one year. Five point five million dollar
• 1:16:31
  contract. I he's Dynamic from the Chicago
• 1:16:34
  Bears. The Jets had a number one corner
• 1:16:36
  which is that which they likely this year.
• 1:16:39
  Now they got to know one. Now they can draft a number two
• 1:16:41
  and they had the kids that they drafted from Florida.
• 1:16:44
  State will see if he can get healthy this year and be ready
• 1:16:46
  mid-season. So they they Jets added a corny,
• 1:16:49
  but she forgot and right, who a lot of people like going into
• 1:16:51
  free agency, five interceptions last year for the Chicago Bears
• 1:16:55
  and and something that couldn't do all season long intercept,
• 1:16:58
  the ball. And who do they add Fitzpatrick
• 1:17:01
  and right to their secondary slam dunk.
• 1:17:03
  Oh and Deep, by the way, they are not, you know, Benson,
• 1:17:07
  right. Um, it was from the, from the,
• 1:17:10
  the Giants, uh, yeah, it was Belton Belton Belton, I'm sorry.
• 1:17:15
  Yeah. They had a belt into yes, and
• 1:17:17
  I'm gonna go to the Steelers first because I think they've
• 1:17:19
  had a really good off-season. So far, when you look at the
• 1:17:21
  value that they've gotten on defense, that really had to
• 1:17:24
  rebuild a lot of that secondary pieces, a lot of those guys
• 1:17:26
  weren't able to stay healthy, they're mentioning the private
• 1:17:29
  chest who won brisker really good.
• 1:17:31
  Underrated safety that Chicago had for a while too.
• 1:17:33
  I think they've made some really good moves along with the
• 1:17:35
  offensive ball with Rico dowel and some of the lineman that
• 1:17:38
  they signed, Jayla Watson, Paris back with McDuffie, always like
• 1:17:40
  to make Kansas City scheme. Versatile guy.
• 1:17:42
  Here's the interesting one with with Woolen, too Walden and
• 1:17:45
  Dean, I'm curious how they're gonna use them because Woolen
• 1:17:48
  can probably be a physical safety zone, safety of flop.
• 1:17:51
  If it flop, if she plays the slot Corner, put you put DeJean
• 1:17:55
  in a slot I think but absolutely you could see them switch off
• 1:17:58
  very often though, I think it's that versatile defensive back as
• 1:18:01
  well. It's not overly fast buddies.
• 1:18:03
  Long. Any guitar, very well.
• 1:18:05
  And I think the gene is somebody that is a little.
• 1:18:08
  Everything isn't Cooper. Eugene free agent after next
• 1:18:10
  year. No, he's so year after so, 25
• 1:18:14
  media. I got to throw a little water on
• 1:18:16
  that. Tariq, Woolen, we're in a 426,
• 1:18:18
  he's one of the fastest Corners in the NFL.
• 1:18:20
  I think he's more known for his length though.
• 1:18:22
  Well, he's but he's tall, but he's tall and fast.
• 1:18:25
  He just isn't super aware at times and makes mistakes and
• 1:18:29
  coverage, and he's he's catch-up speed.
• 1:18:31
  He's one of those type of guys, like if you have like, the long
• 1:18:34
  run guy that if he's not running too complex of a row tree, you
• 1:18:38
  want Woolen up against that guy. You need to have someone that
• 1:18:41
  can run with a burner and that's what willingness will he play
• 1:18:44
  in. The fangio's scheme though, is
• 1:18:47
  is really the question? I think it's good for, why not?
• 1:18:49
  I think it's good for his scheme though.
• 1:18:51
  Even when he was here Broncos, he was doing well with the
• 1:18:54
  longer corner and I think I think you can definitely work it
• 1:18:57
  around because the one safety spot was a big weakness for the
• 1:18:59
  Eagles last year. Finishing off for the court off.
• 1:19:01
  What? Yeah, like that.
• 1:19:02
  He got more money per year than nakobe Are Nicole Kidman Jamel?
• 1:19:05
  Dean got and Jamel Dean. That was a bargain.
• 1:19:07
  For the Steelers is ridiculous. It shows for the Titans are
• 1:19:10
  really going right now. They're going nowhere, and we
• 1:19:12
  have to come up with a name for this dual, New York, clown, and
• 1:19:15
  I got news for you guys. The Philadelphia Eagles, have
• 1:19:17
  the best Trio in Corners in the league.
• 1:19:19
  I don't think you can argue that now, adding wool into that.
• 1:19:22
  Tandem I, I think they're going to be very good defensively.
• 1:19:25
  I don't care who the coach is, who the defensive coordinator
• 1:19:29
  is. You can put these guys in the
• 1:19:30
  right position. Like you said, Speed Works when
• 1:19:33
  it comes to the NFL and I think the all three of these guys are
• 1:19:36
  going to be able to play multiple positions, and they've
• 1:19:38
  got, I believe the best Trio in the NFL.
• 1:19:40
  So I think the Eagles going to be an elite defense.
• 1:19:43
  Absolutely, even if one of these guys go down, you could just
• 1:19:46
  move the other guy in the other side.
• 1:19:48
  And I I'm not sure. I get, I'm not sure.
• 1:19:51
  But you did. They did they keep.
• 1:19:53
  What's his name again from the New York Jets for the corner
• 1:19:55
  position know, I think they let him go.
• 1:19:57
  Did they leave? Let him go?
• 1:19:58
  I already know that. Let him go.
• 1:19:59
  All right, so they don't have. I got to see who they draft this
• 1:20:03
  year. They'll probably.
• 1:20:04
  You have to another Corner in the later rounds.
• 1:20:05
  Yeah, to give them a little bit more depth, but I, I do believe
• 1:20:09
  the Philadelphia Eagles are going to have the best Trio in
• 1:20:11
  the NFL. Dory, Jackson played a little
• 1:20:13
  bit for him, he's a free agent, the best corner out there still
• 1:20:17
  is, Mike, Hilton is slot Corner was excellent.
• 1:20:19
  Last season. I think he's gonna get a decent
• 1:20:23
  amount of money. You should get more than enough
• 1:20:24
  flat dots, the flat. I, it's just unbelievable.
• 1:20:28
  Let's go to the offense of line and wrap up this whip around.
• 1:20:31
  So Zion Johnson went to the Browns from the Chargers.
• 1:20:36
  David Edwards was the really good guard on the bills.
• 1:20:39
  He gets a big money contract from the Saints who needed in
• 1:20:42
  the worst way. I am very surprised that he got
• 1:20:44
  as much money did, but Elijah Vera Tucker.
• 1:20:46
  Got a nice contract from the Patriots and really good Center
• 1:20:50
  last year. Tyler beat, ash from Washington
• 1:20:53
  gets three years, 30 million from the Chargers and long time.
• 1:20:58
  Veteran for the Eagles guard. Isaac samalo goes to Arizona,
• 1:21:02
  similar contract, I think all these moves are going to help
• 1:21:06
  out especially on the offensive side of the ball again.
• 1:21:09
  We don't know what these guys and how these guys gonna fit on
• 1:21:11
  every single organization, they go to they're going they were
• 1:21:14
  good players on their formal organizations.
• 1:21:17
  Now we got to see how they're going to work with the offensive
• 1:21:20
  line. You have five guys have to work
• 1:21:21
  in one this you know, this. You got to work in one.
• 1:21:24
  It takes a while to build a relationship with those guys.
• 1:21:27
  So we have to see how that works.
• 1:21:28
  But I think every single one of these guys that you mention are
• 1:21:31
  going to fit what these teams have needed over the last past
• 1:21:34
  year. Yeah, I think the three I like
• 1:21:36
  it particular Edwards. I think I'm very underrated with
• 1:21:38
  the bills for a while. Be honest.
• 1:21:39
  Like you're saying fish very good Center.
• 1:21:40
  Even with Dallas even before was Washington to and still models
• 1:21:43
  been very good for a while. Just got lost in the shuffle and
• 1:21:45
  those really good other eagles offensive lineman.
• 1:21:46
  We'll see what the Browns are trying to rebuild everything all
• 1:21:49
  at once and there are Tucker. He's going, he's healthy.
• 1:21:51
  But can you say healthy? Yeah.
• 1:21:52
  Some other lineman, still available Bitonio.
• 1:21:55
  If you wants to come back and play, he's certainly going to
• 1:21:58
  have takers zeitler similar situation.
• 1:22:01
  Had a really good season for the Titans last two old.
• 1:22:04
  Too old is. I mean there's some some
• 1:22:06
  veterans out there why it teller had a bad injury just all out.
• 1:22:12
  Yeah, they had a really good offense of and every one of them
• 1:22:15
  got these horrible injuries, cam Robinson, another one that was
• 1:22:19
  on the grounds last year. Jonah Williams is kind of
• 1:22:22
  bounced around the league Taylor Decker.
• 1:22:24
  It's gonna be Curious Thing. Yeah.
• 1:22:27
  What happens with Taylor Decker? If he goes back to the Lions or
• 1:22:31
  not? That's the whip around.
• 1:22:33
  I will say this for all you And you could shut the music.
• 1:22:36
  I could tell you that all this with everything that we just
• 1:22:39
  mentioned, and some of the players that are going to that
• 1:22:41
  are still available and some of the players that have moved on
• 1:22:44
  the, everybody looks at the Browns and make fun of the
• 1:22:47
  Browns, we have to, you have to understand who their quarterback
• 1:22:50
  is going to be this year. Is it going to be shedeur
• 1:22:52
  Sanders or is it going to be DeShaun Watson?
• 1:22:53
  And how is that going to work with a new head coach?
• 1:22:56
  And, and a head coach a new head coach that's gonna be pushed to
• 1:22:59
  play shoulder Sanders. That's the problem.
• 1:23:02
  They want to see what doors Sanders is going to be able to
• 1:23:05
  handle under a new regime and a new offense and they all so want
• 1:23:09
  to believe that Watson is still capable of being a quarterback
• 1:23:12
  in this league and maybe an elite quarterback when coming
• 1:23:15
  back after being gone for almost two years.
• 1:23:17
  So interesting, interesting for the Browns, I wouldn't say that
• 1:23:21
  the Browns, their schedule, besides their division, the
• 1:23:24
  schedule is fairly easy this year, the Browns could win seven
• 1:23:27
  or eight games this year if everything works right for them
• 1:23:30
  that division. The Bengals.
• 1:23:32
  There's a lot of question marks but they're offense is going to
• 1:23:34
  be good as long as Joe burrow is healthy, but their defense,
• 1:23:38
  there's a lot of questions there.
• 1:23:39
  But Pittsburgh's going to be good, they had a Dean that they
• 1:23:43
  edit. A wide receiver Pikmin is going
• 1:23:45
  to give you another another Elite player on one side of the,
• 1:23:48
  on the other side of the ball and you have the Ravens who did
• 1:23:52
  Anne Trey Hendrickson, they're still going to have their draft
• 1:23:55
  picks, we'll see how this team works and finishes up in their
• 1:23:58
  free agency market. But the FC North could be again,
• 1:24:02
  one of the elite divisions in football, we'll see how it works
• 1:24:05
  on. I would love to see, Maxx Crosby
• 1:24:08
  Myles Garrett in the same division and what could you
• 1:24:11
  imagine three of the top four best defensive lineman in the
• 1:24:16
  NFL in one division. That's what I would like to see
• 1:24:19
  and you would have seen them play against one another twice
• 1:24:21
  in one year so that's what you wanted to see.
• 1:24:24
  That's what not what is going to happen now.
• 1:24:27
  Thanks to Costa. Who is an absolute idiot when we
• 1:24:30
  come back ladies. And oh, wait a second.
• 1:24:32
  I got my due to the day. I forgot about that.
• 1:24:34
  My juice to the day Not a lot. I don't have a lot but Keep it.
• 1:24:48
  Well, ladies and gentlemen, another NFL player in a lot of
• 1:24:52
  trouble. Yes, Mr. James Pierce, Junior,
• 1:24:56
  WNBA player Ricky Jackson filed a petition for protection
• 1:25:01
  against her ex-boyfriend Atlanta Falcons Edge.
• 1:25:04
  Rusher, James Pierce, Junior saying that she was in fear of
• 1:25:08
  her life and that, if the court didn't intervene she believes
• 1:25:13
  that James would have killed her.
• 1:25:14
  Interesting, ladies and gentlemen, the NFL and Roger
• 1:25:18
  Goodell once again, can't control their players.
• 1:25:21
  You set so many different rules to these players and you have
• 1:25:27
  Kareem hunt kicking somebody, you have Tyree kill beating up
• 1:25:30
  people. I mean when is it going to end?
• 1:25:33
  When is it going to end? You have a kicker from the New
• 1:25:36
  York Giants and Brown beating up his wife.
• 1:25:38
  There's so much abuse to women to me.
• 1:25:42
  It has to stop and the NFL needs to drop the hammer on a player.
• 1:25:47
  If you put your hands on a Woman, once you're fine, and
• 1:25:50
  you're suspended for a whole season, you do it twice.
• 1:25:52
  You're out of your for your rest of your career.
• 1:25:55
  Even if you push the woman or touch the woman or squeezed a
• 1:25:59
  woman's arm, if she's calling the police.
• 1:26:02
  And she's saying that you're putting your hands on her.
• 1:26:03
  Guess what? Ladies and gentlemen, you're
• 1:26:06
  going to jail. That is domestic violence.
• 1:26:09
  And if you're getting arrested for domestic violence two, yes,
• 1:26:14
  two times out of the league, it to me, playing in the, in a
• 1:26:19
  professional League, the NBA, the NHL, the NFL, and the MLB,
• 1:26:22
  it's you're playing in a league and you're one of the top
• 1:26:26
  players in and professional sports in your position.
• 1:26:29
  And you're putting, you're making millions and millions of
• 1:26:31
  dollars and you're getting the opportunity to make that kind of
• 1:26:34
  money. And what do you do?
• 1:26:35
  You're doing things Reckless that puts you and puts you in a
• 1:26:39
  position that either one, get you arrested or two, get you
• 1:26:43
  suspended. Why would any team want to bring
• 1:26:46
  in a domestic domestic woman abuser to their team and their
• 1:26:50
  organization? This is a horrible Story.
• 1:26:52
  The NFL needs to do this and they needed a press forward on
• 1:26:55
  it. So that ladies and gentlemen, is
• 1:26:57
  my deuce of the day. When we come back, ladies and

• 1:27:03
  Deputy editor and host of NHL draft class podcast.
• 1:27:08
  Adam Kimmel, he's been on a show.
• 1:27:10
  He's a friend of the show where excited to have a Monica again,
• 1:27:12
  but first, our Sports minute with fish.
• 1:27:16
  Three. two, this is the job and the mouth Sportsman is All
• 1:27:22
  right, guys, Aaron Fishman here with your Sportsman, got a
• 1:27:25
  couple of stories for you. Before we get into the scores,
• 1:27:27
  this evening, the push for the 2026 Women's World Cup of
• 1:27:31
  basketball has begun in Earnest as the Team USA Women dominated
• 1:27:35
  Senegal in the FIBA World Cup qualifiers match on Wednesday in
• 1:27:38
  Puerto Rico, 110 to 64. The biggest news in this one was
• 1:27:42
  the debut of three new players on the Team USA roster last
• 1:27:46
  year's Rookie of the Year. Paige Becker's, Angel Reese, and
• 1:27:48
  perhaps the most famous young player and women's basketball
• 1:27:51
  history, Caitlin, Clark Clark did not disappoint in her Team
• 1:27:55
  USA, Senior Team debut notching, a double-double with 17 points
• 1:27:58
  in 12:00 in only 19 minutes of play.
• 1:28:01
  This was the first professional game for Clarkson Since being
• 1:28:04
  shut down last July with the recurring injury, and then a
• 1:28:07
  bone Brews in her ankle Clark who had started ramping up for a
• 1:28:11
  Team, USA, return in December that at the time, that she felt
• 1:28:15
  100%, but didn't know when she would be all the way back.
• 1:28:18
  Clark told reporters Wednesday after the wind that only took
• 1:28:21
  four minutes. It's for the former First Team,
• 1:28:23
  all WNBA point guard to find her form saying that when she
• 1:28:27
  checked in Midway through the first quarter and went to when
• 1:28:30
  she hit her, first three-pointer 3, 4 minutes later she racked
• 1:28:33
  up. Three straight assists
• 1:28:34
  immediately and started dominating the game Team USA
• 1:28:37
  Women's head coach. Kara, Lawson was clearly excited
• 1:28:40
  about Clark's contributions to the team's offense.
• 1:28:43
  She brings this Dynamic play to the offensive end.
• 1:28:46
  As much as she is a dynamic score.
• 1:28:48
  She's one of the most dynamic Playmakers in the world as well.
• 1:28:51
  So we talked about her utilizing all the talent around her.
• 1:28:54
  This is the most talented team. She's played on, I thought she
• 1:28:57
  toggled between playmaking and scoring really well.
• 1:29:00
  Team, USA has four more qualifying games, all though
• 1:29:03
  they've already secured a spot in September's World Cup
• 1:29:06
  competition in Germany, the Duke Blue Devils have been dominant.
• 1:29:11
  This college basketball season carrying number one seed into
• 1:29:14
  the ACT Tournament. Although compared to the pros,
• 1:29:17
  the college season seems like a blimp on the radar.
• 1:29:19
  This time of the year, we see who can stay healthy entering
• 1:29:21
  the A big dance. And a fortunately Duke is going
• 1:29:24
  to have to whether losing one of their leaders for an indefinite
• 1:29:27
  amount of time. The team announced on Tuesday,
• 1:29:29
  Blue Devils, starting point guard, Caleb Fosters out
• 1:29:31
  indefinitely after suffering. A broken foot in the win over
• 1:29:35
  UNC this past Saturday Fosters, a 65 Junior who started an
• 1:29:40
  averaging, six 8.5 points, a game and 2.9 assists and he
• 1:29:45
  started 30 of the 31 games this season.
• 1:29:47
  While the prognosis isn't great, at this time of the year,
• 1:29:49
  Fosters told the team that he will be back but head coach Jon
• 1:29:53
  scheyer through some water on those flames and simulating the
• 1:29:55
  Blue Devils would likely have to make the final four for foster
• 1:29:58
  to have a shot at playing against the season.
• 1:30:00
  Compounding the matters for Duke is another foot injury to
• 1:30:04
  starting center. Patchogue the second donga the
• 1:30:07
  sixth ten sophomore big sat out the winning against UNC and was
• 1:30:10
  seen in the second half wearing a walking Boot Barn in with the
• 1:30:15
  hopes that he'll be able to return for the NCAA tournament
• 1:30:18
  which will start with the first four on Tuesday.

• 1:32:59
  Three three times and this is the first time in 2026 on our
• 1:33:04
  show, we are now talking to nhl.com deputed, Deputy editor
• 1:33:09
  and host of NHL draft class podcast.
• 1:33:11
  Adam kimelman Adam, what's up? Good are you guys doing?
• 1:33:15
  But anyways, you know, all about it, you know, all about content.
• 1:33:18
  You work for nhl.com. You have a podcast.
• 1:33:21
  So, let's get into the NHL because there's a lot of stuff
• 1:33:24
  going on in the NHL. And I'm going to go into my
• 1:33:27
  Islanders, because my Islanders are a playoff team, not the
• 1:33:30
  Rangers, not the Devils, but my Islanders and I think if I'm not
• 1:33:36
  mistaken, you're an Islander fan too.
• 1:33:37
  Am I am not mistaken? Stay we I have 32 favorite teams
• 1:33:41
  working for the league. I got to keep it a little bit
• 1:33:44
  neutral but I will say this the Islanders are an incredibly fun
• 1:33:47
  team to watch. and a lot of that is because of Matthew Schaefer
• 1:33:51
  and what he's brought, you know, since he was drafted there and
• 1:33:55
  you know, it was an incredible story going into the draft and
• 1:33:59
  at the start of the season and he's just been He's over
• 1:34:03
  delivered and it's rare to say that with the number one,
• 1:34:06
  overall draft pick. But he's just been, he's been
• 1:34:08
  incredible. He won't win the heart trophy as
• 1:34:11
  the most valuable player in the league, but I can't think of a
• 1:34:14
  more transformative player. Than what Matthew Shaffer has
• 1:34:19
  done to the Islanders just through his play on the ice, his
• 1:34:23
  personality, just everything that he's brought to that
• 1:34:26
  organization that franchise. It's lifted them from being, you
• 1:34:30
  know maybe at best. Probably a fringe playoff team.
• 1:34:34
  A fringe playoff Contender to a team that you can make a
• 1:34:37
  realistic argument that they're going to get to the Stanley Cup
• 1:34:39
  Final. I think they're that good.
• 1:34:41
  And it's actually with the additions they made the trade
• 1:34:43
  deadline bringing in Brayden Schenn, not to mention what they
• 1:34:46
  did preemptively with with Andre polite.
• 1:34:49
  With the defenseman, they got, from the Rangers Carson Susie.
• 1:34:53
  You know, they upgraded they added depth.
• 1:34:56
  You know, you look through the Middle with Horvat and and
• 1:35:01
  barzel and Patio. You've got four top three
• 1:35:06
  centers. Somebody's going to shift to the
• 1:35:08
  wing and just gonna make you even stronger.
• 1:35:11
  You know, Brayden Schenn can play the wing as well.
• 1:35:13
  He can play the middle. So maybe he's the guy who moves
• 1:35:16
  to the moves to the Bank. But they really have done a
• 1:35:19
  fantastic job, sort of, you know, building up what they had,
• 1:35:23
  you know, and and just and again I go back to Matthew Schaefer
• 1:35:28
  and just what he's brought to that group He's barely 18 and
• 1:35:32
  he's their franchise defenseman and and that is something you
• 1:35:35
  almost never. See, you never see that.
• 1:35:37
  You never see a defenseman play like this early in their
• 1:35:40
  careers. Obviously, he's the the first
• 1:35:43
  pick in the first round. I wanted me.
• 1:35:45
  So I'm not gonna, I'm not gonna take back what I wanted and I
• 1:35:49
  think is going to be a really good player for that sharks
• 1:35:51
  team. They got a tremendous amount of
• 1:35:52
  talent, but I didn't know much about Shaffer.
• 1:35:55
  He played what 17 games last year as a, as a young player
• 1:36:00
  playing Junior Hockey, I didn't even play for the junior
• 1:36:03
  Canadian team and so you never really got a chance to see him
• 1:36:06
  out of high level, so I didn't know who he was.
• 1:36:08
  I heard about him. I heard that he has speed.
• 1:36:10
  I heard he has goal scoring ability and they everybody said,
• 1:36:14
  if there's going to be a number one, pick in any draft, it would
• 1:36:17
  be this kid, but I didn't know much about him and then I got a
• 1:36:21
  chance to get to know him, watch him got to know it got to know
• 1:36:24
  about his his mother and and the back end of the whole story
• 1:36:28
  about Matthew Shafer and how great Kid.
• 1:36:30
  He is and, and knowing that this organization needed something a
• 1:36:34
  jump. Start, and to see this kid,
• 1:36:36
  really develop right in front of her eyes, such an early time, as
• 1:36:40
  a New York Islanders. And the island just haven't had
• 1:36:42
  a player like this really since John Tavares, and John Tavares
• 1:36:46
  was never playing at this high level at 18.
• 1:36:49
  As a matter of fact, I think his first year with the Islanders
• 1:36:52
  was 19. So this kid is really developed
• 1:36:55
  into a star in this league or already.
• 1:36:56
  Would you say he's the top five defenseman know.
• 1:36:59
  I think he needs another year or two under his belt, but this kid
• 1:37:03
  is on his way to be not just the best defense in the league.
• 1:37:06
  One of the best overall players in the NHL.
• 1:37:09
  You talk about what the heart trophy is most valuable player
• 1:37:11
  award. It's for the player who was most
• 1:37:13
  valuable to his team. And I think you could make a
• 1:37:16
  legitimate argument that Matthew Schafer has been more as
• 1:37:20
  valuable more valuable to the Islanders than any single player
• 1:37:23
  is to his team. That's kind of rarefied air.
• 1:37:26
  You put Connor, McDavid in that category, you put Sidney, Crosby
• 1:37:29
  and In McKinnon in that category you put Macklin celebrini with
• 1:37:33
  what he's doing in San Jose in that category.
• 1:37:35
  And I think it's it's very rare that you can say that about 18
• 1:37:39
  year old defenseman who's coming, and had the kind of
• 1:37:41
  impact that he's had. I think you probably have to go
• 1:37:44
  back, you know, nearly 20 years to Drew Dowdy when he came into
• 1:37:48
  the NHL's in 18 year old. But you understand that Matthew
• 1:37:52
  shaver didn't turn 18 until I believe either just to start of
• 1:37:57
  or during training camp, training camp.
• 1:37:59
  So he's not just, he's not just 18, he's a very young 18.
• 1:38:03
  He was one of the youngest players in his draft class.
• 1:38:07
  I I think he might have been the youngest player in his draft
• 1:38:10
  class and the fact that he's made that step so quickly.
• 1:38:14
  So smoothly almost effortlessly, it's just it's been remarkable.
• 1:38:19
  And you know, I think the Islanders knew they were getting
• 1:38:23
  a very good player. We all knew he would be a very
• 1:38:25
  good defenseman but to have him do it at 18, this early.
• 1:38:29
  It's, it's just, it's been fantastic to watch and that's
• 1:38:32
  why I go back to its made the aisle.
• 1:38:34
  There's one of the more fun teams in the league to watch so
• 1:38:37
  I'll shift to the teams are competing with in the
• 1:38:39
  Metropolitan Division. The penguins have seen the
• 1:38:42
  Sydney, Crosby's gonna miss about a month, they weren't as
• 1:38:45
  much of buyers as expected. They got some small pieces.
• 1:38:46
  The capitals were the team. I thought was surprisingly not
• 1:38:49
  by and they were in the market for Panera for a while and then
• 1:38:52
  they sell off John Carlson and a couple other pieces as well.
• 1:38:54
  And then the Blue Jackets, get Conor Garland like what are your
• 1:38:57
  thoughts to those three teams competing for that third spot?
• 1:39:00
  If you look at what Columbus is done since they made their
• 1:39:03
  coaching, change it really turned them around.
• 1:39:06
  Turn their season around nothing against what Dean Everson was
• 1:39:09
  doing there. But clearly, the message wasn't
• 1:39:11
  getting through Rick bonuses, come in change to make up there,
• 1:39:14
  changed the culture there a little bit, and they've taken
• 1:39:16
  off. They want, I believe was eight
• 1:39:18
  in a row heading into the Olympic brake.
• 1:39:19
  They haven't been able to get back to that level, obviously,
• 1:39:22
  since then, but look coming into tonight.
• 1:39:24
  They're what they're two points out of a out of a playoff spot.
• 1:39:27
  So, you know, Boston's playing tonight.
• 1:39:30
  I believe, you know, they're right in the race and to add
• 1:39:34
  Conor garland that sort of the ads to their identity of feisty
• 1:39:38
  hard to play. Again, just that's kind of the
• 1:39:41
  team. They started the build last year
• 1:39:43
  and, and they've kind of stuck with it this season.
• 1:39:45
  I think Columbus is a really good chance of displacing.
• 1:39:49
  One of these, one of these Wild Card teams and look, Detroit's
• 1:39:52
  missing Dylan Larkin, maybe for, at least another week, maybe
• 1:39:55
  more, and there's a huge drop off in their play, without their
• 1:39:58
  captain in the lineup, if they slide.
• 1:40:00
  I mean, Columbus is right there to, to kind of jump into that
• 1:40:04
  Gap. If Detroit, or Boston, kind of
• 1:40:06
  stumble here, a little bit. So I think with Washington, I
• 1:40:10
  think we were all surprised by the John Carlson trade.
• 1:40:12
  I have to wonder if maybe they knew something that he the
• 1:40:17
  injury was, was maybe more significant than anyone realized
• 1:40:21
  maybe they thought that he didn't, you know, come the
• 1:40:24
  offseason. He wouldn't be coming back.
• 1:40:27
  So you know, you take what you can get at that point for him.
• 1:40:29
  It's a huge blow. You know, you saw some of the
• 1:40:31
  the messaging coming out of the Washington locker room from you
• 1:40:34
  know Alex Ovechkin and Tom Wilson how it was an incredibly
• 1:40:37
  rough day for them to see John Carlson, leave their locker room
• 1:40:40
  so, you know, I think they understood sort of where they
• 1:40:43
  stood and and yes, there is that kind of thought.
• 1:40:47
  Well, let's maximize what we can have while we still have Alex
• 1:40:51
  Ovechkin while he's still a really really good player.
• 1:40:54
  But you know, you're looking more years down the line and you
• 1:40:59
  got to say, well if we do that, how much is that going to damage
• 1:41:03
  our future Beyond next season. So you know they're able to get
• 1:41:07
  a first round pick back for for John Carlson and that's the
• 1:41:10
  course State. They went and look, there's
• 1:41:13
  nothing that says he can't go back there in the offseason.
• 1:41:15
  He's in the last year of his contract will be a free agent.
• 1:41:18
  Come July one. Like he says, he can't go back
• 1:41:20
  to Washington. It doesn't happen very often,
• 1:41:23
  but it's certainly not outside their own possibility.
• 1:41:27
  We are talking nhl.com, Deputy editor and host of NHL draft
• 1:41:32
  class podcast. Adam kimelman, you know, Adam
• 1:41:34
  the New York Ranger. I I don't get, we had Neil Smith
• 1:41:38
  on the show recently and I asked him.
• 1:41:40
  I said, have you ever seen a ranger team?
• 1:41:42
  Give up as quick as this organization has this year and
• 1:41:46
  it's been pathetic and Chris Drury who still has a job.
• 1:41:49
  You have the owner going on a show here in WFAN a first time.
• 1:41:54
  Craig Carton show he comes back and he's on that show and he
• 1:41:58
  gives him all this wrap crap that comes out of his mouth.
• 1:42:02
  Oh the next and they're playing great basketball and I gave the
• 1:42:05
  reins to Mr. You know Mr. Leon Rose and he says, I believe in
• 1:42:11
  Christchurch. I believe in him.
• 1:42:12
  And I'm Gonna Roll and die with Chris Currie. now, if you're a
• 1:42:17
  range of fan and honestly, every single, every single person on
• 1:42:21
  the show, besides me is a ranger fan, Would you bet that Chris
• 1:42:25
  jury is going to have this or make this right for this
• 1:42:28
  organization? Moving forward?
• 1:42:29
  Because every single thing he is done over the last couple of
• 1:42:33
  years as been crop, they have thrown away Talent.
• 1:42:36
  They have given up on Talent, they've decided that talent
• 1:42:40
  doesn't fit here. They move him to another
• 1:42:42
  organization, they bring up talent that don't develop.
• 1:42:45
  And then they have a guy named, I don't know, not block who's
• 1:42:48
  one of the best young coaches in the NHL right now.
• 1:42:50
  He goes to Edmonton. It takes some all the way to the
• 1:42:52
  finals, so Riddle me. This how does this make sense?
• 1:42:56
  Do you believe Chris jury deserves a job?
• 1:42:58
  Do you believe that he belongs with the New York Rangers at the
• 1:43:01
  end of the season? I think that's a very difficult
• 1:43:05
  decision. You know, look they as you said,
• 1:43:07
  ownership believes in Christ, juries Stanley Cup champion.
• 1:43:11
  He was part of building that team that went to the wanted to
• 1:43:14
  stay a Conference Finals twice in the last four or five years.
• 1:43:17
  So, you know, for all the wrong that he's done and obviously to
• 1:43:22
  get them to this point there have been a few mistakes along
• 1:43:24
  the way. There's a lot of right there
• 1:43:26
  too. So, you know, no GM has a
• 1:43:28
  perfect run, no GM as a perfect record, but I think it's going
• 1:43:33
  to be maybe a little bit of a longer rebuild than you know,
• 1:43:37
  then the last time they did this you know the last time they sent
• 1:43:40
  quote unquote the letter out, it coincided with our tummy Panera
• 1:43:44
  hitting free agency, and Adam fox saying, I only want to come
• 1:43:48
  to New York. So not only do you get the
• 1:43:51
  number two in the number one, pick in the drafting back to
• 1:43:53
  back ears in cocoa and LaFreniere.
• 1:43:56
  You get the best available free agent on the market.
• 1:43:58
  And you get a guy who was a Norris Trophy caliber
• 1:44:01
  defenseman, you're able to add for Little.
• 1:44:04
  So all of those things that that Confluence of things, kind of
• 1:44:07
  came together, not to mention the guys who already had in
• 1:44:10
  place. You know, be zibanejad Crider at
• 1:44:13
  the time just turken was coming into the league so you had it
• 1:44:17
  all sort of set up This time it's a little bit different.
• 1:44:20
  You don't have all of those sort of advantages or things that are
• 1:44:25
  about to hit at the same time. So it's going to be a little bit
• 1:44:28
  more of a test to see what Chris juries plan is, and how they're
• 1:44:32
  able to sort of Turn. It flip it and and get it back
• 1:44:36
  to where it was. They have the goal, which is a
• 1:44:38
  huge benefit. You should start and doesn't
• 1:44:41
  appear to be going anywhere he hasn't for what I can tell.
• 1:44:45
  He he's happy in New York. He wants to be the backbone of
• 1:44:48
  what they're doing. Now becomes, how do they fill in
• 1:44:51
  around him? What's the future for Adam?
• 1:44:53
  Fox, JT, Miller Mika, Savannah, Chad, what are they going to?
• 1:44:57
  Oh, let's see. What have found something with
• 1:45:01
  that. Top Line.
• 1:45:02
  I saw the ranger there in Philadelphia last week and that
• 1:45:04
  line of gay parole and LaFreniere.
• 1:45:07
  In Savannah, Dad, look dominant. And from what I've been able to
• 1:45:11
  tell since then they've stayed dominated.
• 1:45:13
  So maybe that's another puzzle piece moving forward.
• 1:45:17
  That helps him go. From point A to point B in a
• 1:45:21
  little bit less time than maybe, you know, you all everybody
• 1:45:25
  thinks not to mention. There really isn't a dominant
• 1:45:28
  team in the Eastern Conference, certainly not in the
• 1:45:30
  Metropolitan Division outside of Carolina.
• 1:45:33
  You know, you look at the other 17 teams and there's flaws
• 1:45:37
  everywhere. Pittsburgh, the Islanders
• 1:45:39
  Columbus, Philly, Washington, New Jersey, you know, the,
• 1:45:43
  there's not like you have to climb past.
• 1:45:46
  If you look at the Met, if you look at the land division, where
• 1:45:49
  you've got campus, still really good Toronto's.
• 1:45:52
  Gonna figure it out. Florida is probably gonna be
• 1:45:54
  better next year. Buffalo looks like there is
• 1:45:55
  sending Detroit and Montreal. Like there are sending there
• 1:45:59
  isn't as much competition for one of those top three spots in
• 1:46:02
  the Metro so I don't think all hope is lost.
• 1:46:05
  If you're a ranger fan it might be a little bit tough sledding
• 1:46:09
  in the short term but I wouldn't, you know, I think it's
• 1:46:13
  going to be it's possible for them to turn it around maybe
• 1:46:17
  quicker than people believe. Adam.
• 1:46:21
  What are you trying to sell us here?
• 1:46:23
  I I know you want all the range of fans to be happy and say, you
• 1:46:26
  know what, I'm gonna fly. I'm gonna follow his Adam
• 1:46:28
  kimelman. He's seems like a smart guy.
• 1:46:30
  I like him. I got news for you.
• 1:46:33
  Adam, if Chris juries running this organization, they're going
• 1:46:35
  nowhere, everything that he's done has turned to stone.
• 1:46:40
  You know what he's getting from Santa Claus at the end of the
• 1:46:42
  year. He's getting coal.
• 1:46:43
  All right, there is nothing. Here.
• 1:46:45
  That tells me that the Rangers are going to be a good team next
• 1:46:49
  year or the year after, or the year after the overpaid should
• 1:46:53
  start in. I'm sorry, they overpaid for
• 1:46:55
  him. And yeah, I understand what you
• 1:46:58
  had to do. He want to, then he's a trophy.
• 1:47:00
  This guy was one of the best goalies in the league.
• 1:47:02
  That's great. He had one great year and a
• 1:47:05
  bunch of good years but not an elite status where you're paying
• 1:47:09
  him over 11 million dollars. So that's a problem and then you
• 1:47:13
  look at Panera and what did you get back from Panera?
• 1:47:15
  A lot of people thought you were going to get a top six player,
• 1:47:18
  or maybe you get a first round draft pick.
• 1:47:20
  Come on. You got crap.
• 1:47:22
  And I don't care. Oh, well, there's kids looks
• 1:47:24
  good. There's what is his name?
• 1:47:26
  Oh, Speedy, oval tree or whatever the hell crab.
• 1:47:28
  What's his nickname? I don't even know what his name.
• 1:47:31
  I mean, what do you have 119 points in the AHL or OHL
• 1:47:35
  wherever he was in? I, I read a little bit about
• 1:47:39
  him. He's got some Speed.
• 1:47:40
  He's got some athletic ability but are you gonna bet on the
• 1:47:44
  kid? I wouldn't I wouldn't trust
• 1:47:46
  anything. Chris Drury does.
• 1:47:48
  I'm sorry if you're a ranger fan, you can't buy into this
• 1:47:52
  garbage and and I don't want to hear it from ownership saying,
• 1:47:55
  well in jury We Trust because the only thing I trust in Chris
• 1:48:00
  Drury is knowing that the season is almost over and those letters
• 1:48:04
  mean. Absolutely nothing.
• 1:48:05
  And by the way, for all you range of fans out there to think
• 1:48:08
  hey we can still get McKenna or we can get this guy or that guy.
• 1:48:14
  This draft is so good. This draft was one of the more
• 1:48:18
  overrated, drafts going into this season, it was a good
• 1:48:22
  player. Penn State, he'll probably be
• 1:48:24
  the number one pick, no matter what happened over there, in
• 1:48:26
  Penn State, fighting in a bar, because somebody spoke about his
• 1:48:29
  mom, I don't know. The whole truth.
• 1:48:30
  McKenna is probably gonna be the number one pick and even if the
• 1:48:34
  Rangers get McKenna, they got lost in here and they got
• 1:48:37
  Capital two guys, two dominant players.
• 1:48:40
  I was at both these guys drafts Capital when I met him I thought
• 1:48:45
  this kid was going to be the next team of saloni.
• 1:48:46
  What did he turn into? He turned into a guy.
• 1:48:49
  That doesn't give you more than 40 points in a season.
• 1:48:51
  Laughing near. He had one good season one one
• 1:48:55
  what Peter Lafayette. Okay.
• 1:48:56
  And ever since then he's been garbage and I was playing on the
• 1:49:00
  first line but Pro k-pro is looks like he's a good player.
• 1:49:05
  I don't know if even with the NHL in the Eastern Conference
• 1:49:10
  being as bad as it is, Adam. I don't know if I think that the
• 1:49:13
  Rangers could be a contender or even a playoff team for at least
• 1:49:16
  three years, I just don't think they have enough.
• 1:49:18
  Well, all right, so a couple things there, I look at
• 1:49:20
  egregious turkey and I see a guy that you go through you shuffle
• 1:49:25
  through these 32 teams. I can't think of more than four
• 1:49:29
  or five. That would say we'll take our
• 1:49:31
  guy, right? If you offered Igor around the
• 1:49:33
  league there's maybe Tampa with vasel f ski, the Islanders with
• 1:49:38
  sirakan, I think Igor. I think Igor, I'll take, I'll
• 1:49:42
  take your head of a, Broski at a 38 year old Sergey Bob Rossi?
• 1:49:48
  Yes, I will take sister gonna head of him when you have that.
• 1:49:51
  You're, you're in far better hands than you realize, if they
• 1:49:56
  were, are lucky enough to get the number one pick, and you
• 1:49:58
  bring in Gavin McKenna. That's a player that can be a
• 1:50:01
  franchise changer. If you look what he's done, the
• 1:50:04
  second half of the Season at Penn State, he's average close
• 1:50:07
  to 2 game. Now again, here's an 18 year old
• 1:50:10
  player playing against 22 and 23 year olds.
• 1:50:14
  More physical bigger. Stronger older than he's used to
• 1:50:17
  playing against. He didn't turn 18 until
• 1:50:19
  December. So, the fact, he's averaging,
• 1:50:23
  two points, a game, the fact that he's probably gonna be a
• 1:50:26
  Hobie, Baker finalists. He's carried that Penn State
• 1:50:29
  team. So if you're lucky enough to get
• 1:50:32
  him you'll be in good shape. I think one of the issues with
• 1:50:35
  this year's draft is there isn't a lot of Center depth, a lot of
• 1:50:39
  wing depth and some pretty good defenseman.
• 1:50:42
  So if you're a team that's looking for, for a young Center,
• 1:50:44
  which is really where you need to build, It's a little bit
• 1:50:47
  difficult now, what the Rangers did and to go back to the Panera
• 1:50:52
  and trade, Liam Green Tree, who they got.
• 1:50:54
  From the top prospects, he was their top prospect, he is I
• 1:51:00
  think if I'm a ranger fan the best way I can describe him.
• 1:51:02
  He's got will Cooley's size and strength in a far more skilled
• 1:51:09
  players. Body if that makes sense.
• 1:51:12
  He's, you know, you go back and you look at what he's done.
• 1:51:15
  He had 100 plus points last season in Ontario League this
• 1:51:19
  season, the numbers are a little bit down, but since the trade
• 1:51:22
  happened, and he became a ranger property. 18 points in 12 games
• 1:51:26
  playing on one of the better teams in Ontario League.
• 1:51:28
  He's poised to have a pretty deep run and you're probably
• 1:51:32
  gonna get him in the lineup in New York next season.
• 1:51:34
  He's that good, right. I think the size will allow him
• 1:51:37
  to make that jump to the NHL in a middle six.
• 1:51:40
  Forward roll, you're not completely bereft of talent as a
• 1:51:44
  ranger fan. That's kind of why I go back to
• 1:51:46
  stinks right now and it's a bad mix and there are some things
• 1:51:49
  that have gone wrong, you know, some self-inflicted wounds,
• 1:51:52
  let's just say, but I still think that there is enough to
• 1:51:56
  carry them through and there isn't that much competition in
• 1:51:59
  the Metropolitan Division to start fresh next season.
• 1:52:02
  If they're able to aggressively, look at what they have and
• 1:52:08
  improve where they need to improve obvious.
• 1:52:10
  The bottom 16 to get better. They need to do more, find more
• 1:52:14
  depth on defense. I'm a big, Brayden Schneider
• 1:52:16
  fan. I think if you build through a
• 1:52:18
  Schneider Fox and this kind of fill in around them, I don't
• 1:52:22
  think the cupboard is completely bare and they're in a lot for
• 1:52:25
  them to jump over, are they playoff team next season?
• 1:52:27
  It's tough to project them there.
• 1:52:29
  However, it's not completely out of their own possibility, when
• 1:52:33
  you are Foundation, is a Vesna caliber, goalie grocery store
• 1:52:37
  and a Norris caliber defenseman and Adam Fox.
• 1:52:41
  Savannah Jad, a healthy Miller and ascending gay Perot.
• 1:52:44
  And then you add in the election years, the will Cooley's Green
• 1:52:49
  Tree, who's probably gonna be there?
• 1:52:50
  I'm there might be a guy or two. I'm forgetting at the moment.
• 1:52:53
  Is it going to be rough for them?
• 1:52:55
  Sure, but I wouldn't just assume that they're going to be bought
• 1:53:00
  a standings at top five team in the top five in the draft for
• 1:53:02
  the next four or five six years. Well, I didn't know that Gabe
• 1:53:06
  Perot is Yannick, Perot, son. I didn't know that and he was
• 1:53:10
  born in Quebec. So he was, he is, he will
• 1:53:13
  Sinister, I because I read a little bit about him.
• 1:53:15
  He, I knew he was Canadian, so I didn't know he played for the
• 1:53:18
  United States junior team. So, but now I obviously yadek
• 1:53:22
  Perot, he was a great Canadian player.
• 1:53:24
  I remember him as a young kids, so I got a chance to watch him.
• 1:53:27
  So I core back is a beautiful city, so that's all I had to say
• 1:53:31
  about that, guys. All right, so I was gonna, let's
• 1:53:34
  switch to the Western Conference.
• 1:53:35
  There's a Galt out there with a lot of those top five teams,
• 1:53:37
  Colorado, Minnesota, all very active at the trade deadline,
• 1:53:39
  you saw Vegas. Make a lot of those moves you
• 1:53:42
  would normally see Vegas. Make for a lot of that Center
• 1:53:44
  deaths in the draft. They didn't get the goal tenant.
• 1:53:46
  That they wanted. Neither did Edmonton, but a lot
• 1:53:48
  of those teams making big trades.
• 1:53:49
  Where do you see the western conference?
• 1:53:50
  Is it stands right now with a lot of teams that are pretty
• 1:53:52
  much caught favorite? So going back to September, we
• 1:53:57
  did our our Stanley Cup Final predictions at nhl.com.
• 1:54:00
  I said, tampon Colorado would be the teams in the final so I'm
• 1:54:04
  going to go with where if we're looking for a team to come out
• 1:54:06
  of the West. I'm gonna stick with Colorado.
• 1:54:08
  I love what they did adding that some Cadre, you know, a guy who
• 1:54:12
  seamlessly is going to fit in there because he's been there
• 1:54:15
  he's won there, he knows how they play.
• 1:54:16
  He knows a lot of the guys on that team.
• 1:54:18
  It's an easy fit, sliding him right back in.
• 1:54:21
  I think he's already scored a goal for them.
• 1:54:22
  So I like what they've done and again, you know, Gabe land is
• 1:54:27
  going to come back. He had a little bit of a
• 1:54:29
  mid-body issue. I guess he took a puck, to a not
• 1:54:32
  friendly part of the body. So he's gonna be out for a
• 1:54:34
  little bit, but when he comes back, you know, again, you've
• 1:54:37
  got McKinnon Nate's, having a fantastic year.
• 1:54:39
  You've got the best defenseman in the league, in Colma car.
• 1:54:42
  They're deep in the places. You need to be deep.
• 1:54:44
  Their goaltending is good enough.
• 1:54:45
  It doesn't have to be great, but their goaltending is good enough
• 1:54:48
  to get them. The word they want to get to.
• 1:54:49
  So if I'm gonna look at anybody coming out of the West, my first
• 1:54:52
  inclination say, it's going to be It's going to be Colorado,
• 1:54:56
  but the team that I think could be a little bit of a dark horse
• 1:54:59
  that I think is going to be a little bit of a fun Watcher
• 1:55:02
  moving forward is the Anaheim Ducks.
• 1:55:04
  You look at at the Young talent that they have, none of those
• 1:55:08
  guys have playoff, experience everything they're going
• 1:55:10
  through, they're learning on the Fly.
• 1:55:12
  They got a couple of good veterans there to kind of guide
• 1:55:14
  them, you know, including a couple of EX Rangers there and
• 1:55:17
  Jakob Schubert and Chris. Kreider, you know, I think their
• 1:55:21
  team that is very young is very skilled.
• 1:55:25
  They have a three-time Cup champion coach. they could be a
• 1:55:29
  team that could scare a few teams, a few people and and And
• 1:55:33
  and and do some damage coming up here in the playoffs.
• 1:55:36
  They're gonna be a fun team to watch.
• 1:55:38
  I'm very curious to see how they're able to handle the
• 1:55:41
  playoff pressure. When it's starts, we are talking
• 1:55:43
  nhl.com, Deputy editor and host of NHL draft class podcast, Adam
• 1:55:48
  kimelman. Adam Connor hellebuyck.
• 1:55:50
  Remember that? Remember the safety made in the
• 1:55:53
  Olympics gold medal game. Team Canada, look dominant
• 1:55:57
  throughout the third period and really Connor Hall about just
• 1:56:00
  stood on his head. Where were you and what did you
• 1:56:03
  think of that performance? It was awesome.
• 1:56:06
  I, you know, I was like a lot of people, I found a local bar near
• 1:56:10
  me to go and have pucks and breakfast and had some coffee to
• 1:56:15
  make sandwiches while we were watching the game with, with
• 1:56:17
  some friends and it was fantastic experience.
• 1:56:20
  Look, both gold medal games, the men's, and the women's Olympic
• 1:56:24
  gold medal games were Sensational both.
• 1:56:26
  Go to overtime, both dramatic, wonderful ways for it to end.
• 1:56:31
  I mean, the Olympics were it ended on a huge High, you know?
• 1:56:35
  And and it was exactly how if you're a hockey fans, exactly
• 1:56:39
  how you wanted to go. You wanted to see the best us
• 1:56:42
  first Canada and you got all the drama, everything you could have
• 1:56:46
  possibly wanted, Jack Hughes cracked teeth and all scoring
• 1:56:49
  that goal and over time. You know the huge save that
• 1:56:52
  hello Buck made there it was awesome.
• 1:56:55
  It was so much fun and it was everything we had been waiting
• 1:57:00
  for since 2014. And it was just, it was a blast,
• 1:57:04
  it was so much fun and to see everybody, you know, the bar I
• 1:57:07
  was in, I think we had 50 people there, but by the time the
• 1:57:09
  second period started. So it was a great.
• 1:57:12
  It was a great atmosphere to watch a game and the game gave
• 1:57:15
  you everything. You could have probably wanted.
• 1:57:17
  I feel bad for Connor McDavid because he's been taking the
• 1:57:20
  brunt of all of it. And I don't understand why
• 1:57:23
  because kind of McDavid is the best player in the world by far.
• 1:57:26
  I don't think there's an argument.
• 1:57:27
  He's playing with another great player player and dry Seidel.
• 1:57:30
  And I think these guys are going to be contenders this year,
• 1:57:33
  they're always contenders. They just needed to find some
• 1:57:36
  kind of goaltending. It's always a problem when your
• 1:57:39
  goaltending is up, and it's down, but I don't know why
• 1:57:41
  anybody took shots economic David after it, I feel bad
• 1:57:45
  because I'm rooting for Team USA because I'm a United States
• 1:57:48
  citizen. But I, I always love those
• 1:57:51
  people that wear their heart on their sleeve, and you watch,
• 1:57:54
  Connor McDavid, he goes out there and he wears his heart on
• 1:57:57
  his sleep. I just feel bad for him, I
• 1:57:58
  really did. Because after the game, I
• 1:58:01
  remember the interview. That he had he was like listen I
• 1:58:04
  don't I don't play for second I can win a silver medal.
• 1:58:07
  I can wear a bronze metal. It's nice to win a medal but if
• 1:58:09
  it's not gold, it means nothing. So Yeah, for sure.
• 1:58:13
  You know, it's it's it's it's he's got, you know, the
• 1:58:16
  consummate is the playoff MVP for losing in the Stanley Cup
• 1:58:19
  Final? He's lost in the Cup.
• 1:58:20
  Final twice, he wins the Olympic MVP, but he has a silver medal
• 1:58:24
  to show for it. So he's been as you said, he is
• 1:58:27
  the best player in the league, he was the best player at the
• 1:58:29
  Olympics and he doesn't have any championships to show for it.
• 1:58:33
  So I'm sure there's some frustration there.
• 1:58:35
  And then, you know, I think where you look at where they are
• 1:58:40
  in the NHL standings. That Edmonton team is going to
• 1:58:43
  go. Only as far as he takes them,
• 1:58:45
  they, they are not strong on defense, their goaltending is
• 1:58:49
  horrible. Let's be so I was getting my I
• 1:58:53
  was gonna use subpar, but yeah, it's not where it needs to be.
• 1:58:56
  However, in saying that they've still gone to the family cup,
• 1:59:00
  final two, straight years, with the same level of goaltending,
• 1:59:03
  the same level of Defense. So again, it tells you one, it
• 1:59:07
  tells you how great McDavid is that he's able to carry a team
• 1:59:11
  that maybe isn't up to his level.
• 1:59:15
  All the way to Stanley Cup Final, you know, six games, one
• 1:59:18
  year, five games last season so you know it's hard to bet
• 1:59:22
  against them. He obviously knows how to
• 1:59:24
  deliver in big spots. So I I have my doubts about them
• 1:59:29
  this season much like I had my doubts about them last season
• 1:59:33
  but it's really hard to look at a team that has Connor McDavid,
• 1:59:37
  a determined driven hungry, Connor McDavid and say they have
• 1:59:41
  no chance they're gonna have a chance, as long as he's healthy
• 1:59:44
  and able to put skates on Adam, you're fantastic.
• 1:59:47
  You do such a good job for the NHL and, and nhl.com.
• 1:59:50
  And I, I did check out your draft class podcast.
• 1:59:53
  It's it. I, I think you're one of the
• 1:59:56
  best when it comes to background analytics and looking at players
• 2:00:00
  and really figuring out, what player will be the future, the
• 2:00:04
  future of the NHL. And I remember, and I'll say
• 2:00:08
  this before, Matthew Schaeffer was drafted, I was, I was
• 2:00:12
  listening to some of the stuff that you said about him and you
• 2:00:15
  loved Matthew Schaefer, you thought Matthew?
• 2:00:17
  Schaefer by far was the best player in this class.
• 2:00:19
  I don't think there was in any argument, but I didn't know much
• 2:00:22
  about him and getting a chance to watch him in a full season.
• 2:00:26
  And watch this kid really play and the X's and O's.
• 2:00:29
  And and the way he sees the ice, he is one of the more unique
• 2:00:34
  players I've seen come into this leak since Connor McDavid,
• 2:00:37
  honestly, the way he plays, I mean, calma cars a great player.
• 2:00:41
  I might I'm not taking, I I'm not trying to disguise anything
• 2:00:44
  on The Talented player he is, we've seen him grow up as a
• 2:00:48
  player and he's Sensational. But not at this pace, we haven't
• 2:00:52
  seen a player at the defensive position is fast as this kid.
• 2:00:57
  I mean, he's breaking records. I mean, the guy has 20 goals
• 2:01:01
  already. He's probably gonna get to 25 26
• 2:01:03
  goals. He is going.
• 2:01:05
  He's I think he's had, he's on his way to one of the most
• 2:01:09
  defensive points in NFL NHL history.
• 2:01:12
  I mean, the things that he's doing right now and he's playing
• 2:01:15
  over. 26 minutes. How many young 18 year, olds
• 2:01:18
  play, 26 minutes or more and Patrick Wah who I think is going
• 2:01:22
  to be up for coach of the year is having a sensational year
• 2:01:25
  he's building up. This young, a bunch of young
• 2:01:27
  players that are coming up. Kayla call them Richie is
• 2:01:30
  looking like he's a good young player.
• 2:01:32
  They've got a bunch of guys coming up the Islanders future
• 2:01:36
  is very, very bright. Kind of goes back to what I said
• 2:01:40
  before with, you know, and I I forgot Richie earlier but you
• 2:01:44
  look at their depth through the Middle with Horvat and barzal
• 2:01:48
  and now they have Brayden Schenn and Patio and Richie.
• 2:01:51
  Somebody's gonna have to slide to the wing and that's just
• 2:01:53
  gonna make you even stronger. Like, if you have guys who can
• 2:01:57
  play both, who have that versatility.
• 2:01:59
  It just makes you so much deeper and so much stronger.
• 2:02:03
  And and with chafer, just taking over like, you don't see
• 2:02:08
  defenseman. I I, again, I think you have to
• 2:02:10
  go back to to Drew Dowdy in 2008 to find the fenceman, who was
• 2:02:15
  this impactful, and this young and ages in 18 year old because
• 2:02:19
  calm, a car did some time in college.
• 2:02:21
  Before he came into the NHL, so he had a little bit of a higher
• 2:02:24
  level Matthew. Schaefer played 17 games in his
• 2:02:26
  draft year, got hurt the world, Junior's broke his collarbone in
• 2:02:30
  December. Never played again until the
• 2:02:32
  start of training camp. So you know or the first
• 2:02:36
  preseason game he got into that's a long.
• 2:02:38
  Gap. And there were people who
• 2:02:40
  questioned if he would be durable enough to hold up to the
• 2:02:44
  NHL pressure. And obviously, you know, I don't
• 2:02:47
  think he's missed a game this season know and he's playing 24,
• 2:02:50
  25 minutes a night, he's killing penalties.
• 2:02:53
  He's using all situations 20 goals, he's the fourth rookie
• 2:02:57
  defenseman to score 20 goals in a season in the record is 23.
• 2:03:01
  It certainly. You know within reason for him
• 2:03:04
  with what 18 games left to see, 17 games left this season, it's
• 2:03:09
  certainly not out of the Ronald possibility for him to score 25
• 2:03:12
  goals this year as an 18 year old defenseman.
• 2:03:14
  So you know, he is again, I go back as well.
• 2:03:18
  I go back to, he is the most transformational player in the
• 2:03:21
  league to come in that young and to do what he has done and to
• 2:03:25
  get them, where he's gotten them to in the standing, it's your
• 2:03:28
  Marco and don't forget, they traded away their best
• 2:03:31
  defenseman. Know adoption.
• 2:03:34
  During the summer. And they basically handed him
• 2:03:37
  Dobson's full complement of minutes and he's earned it and
• 2:03:42
  more. So, you know, kudos to, to the
• 2:03:45
  Islanders for, you know, making the right choice and for just
• 2:03:49
  giving him the ball and letting him run with it and getting out
• 2:03:52
  of his way because they are where they are in the standings
• 2:03:55
  because of what he's done and they've got some good young
• 2:03:58
  players coming up soon. They have coal iserman who's
• 2:04:02
  gonna come up soon. I mean they've got some guys and
• 2:04:05
  and last year's draft class was Sensational.
• 2:04:07
  They got a young defensemen right now playing at a top
• 2:04:10
  level? He scoring.
• 2:04:11
  I think he's got like 25 26 goals right now in the OHL.
• 2:04:14
  I mean the Islanders future is very, very bright and I'm
• 2:04:18
  excited to see how this team forms in the next two or three
• 2:04:21
  years. Some of the young players really
• 2:04:23
  start. Developing you cannot, you can't
• 2:04:26
  argue where the Islanders are going.
• 2:04:28
  This was one of the oldest teams in the NHL two years ago under
• 2:04:31
  sleeping Lou and now you have a new GM refreshed.
• 2:04:35
  Organization that honestly really knows what they're doing.
• 2:04:38
  So I'm, I'm excited for sure. And then and what they were able
• 2:04:42
  to do at the draft, not just making the player picking the
• 2:04:46
  players that they picked. But having three first picks in
• 2:04:50
  the 2510, take the pick, they got from Colorado and the Brock
• 2:04:55
  Nelson deal and used that to bring in Brayden Schenn.
• 2:04:58
  So, you know, you don't always have to pick a player with a
• 2:05:02
  draft pick. It can help you multiple ways
• 2:05:04
  and that's something they were able to do with the draft
• 2:05:08
  Capital that they had. So, you know, yes, they they
• 2:05:10
  bring it, they selection for they select in the defenseman,
• 2:05:14
  playing for bearing, Ontario League, that you mentioned, they
• 2:05:17
  select Victor Eckland. Who's having a fantastic year in
• 2:05:20
  the Swedish Hockey League? He looks like a guy that's
• 2:05:22
  probably another year, maybe two years away.
• 2:05:24
  Maybe he goes to Bridgeport next season and continues to grow.
• 2:05:27
  I think cool eyes and probably all so is going to need a little
• 2:05:30
  bit of time and Bridgeport once he signs.
• 2:05:32
  But yeah, there's a lot to like, about where the Islanders are in
• 2:05:36
  the depth, they've built among the prospects and they're gonna
• 2:05:38
  need it. You know, let's be honest, you
• 2:05:40
  know, Brayden Schenn is a little bit older, you know, you know
• 2:05:43
  patios. I know he just resigned the new
• 2:05:45
  contract, he's a little bit older.
• 2:05:46
  So they're gonna have to Kyle Palmieri who you have to expect
• 2:05:49
  is going to come back healthy next season.
• 2:05:51
  He's a little bit older so you're gonna have to start
• 2:05:54
  working in some newer younger guys.
• 2:05:56
  They're in pretty good shape to do that and it looks like it's
• 2:05:59
  not just gonna be a one-off where they're able to push here
• 2:06:02
  for a deep playoff run. It seems like something they
• 2:06:05
  could do for a few years. Moving forward.
• 2:06:07
  Adam, you're fantastic. Keep up the good work.
• 2:06:09
  We'll get you on again as the season moves forward, maybe
• 2:06:13
  during the playoffs. I love to hear your take.
• 2:06:15
  So you, who do you have right now?
• 2:06:17
  Going to the Fine? Well, I pick Colorado and Tampa.
• 2:06:19
  Still going there. Still going.
• 2:06:21
  I have nothing. I've seen makes me feel any
• 2:06:24
  different, really. All right?
• 2:06:26
  I had Colorado, definitely going to the finals.
• 2:06:29
  Who do, who did I picked Florida?
• 2:06:30
  Again, Florida in Colorado, I had going to the Florida to the
• 2:06:33
  finals. In Florida, is practically
• 2:06:36
  bought out of the season, but they'll be good next year but
• 2:06:39
  you can see that there selling off pieces and they were looking
• 2:06:43
  to trade bumper ski. It didn't work out, but
• 2:06:45
  interested to see what they do, moving forward in the offseason.
• 2:06:48
  They've got they got a good farm system too, so I'm interested to
• 2:06:52
  see how they're going to move players and trade players, and,
• 2:06:56
  and move forward. Next year, two times Stanley Cup
• 2:06:59
  champion but Adam, thank you very much.
• 2:07:02
  My pleasure, guys. Anytime Adam, kimelman.
• 2:07:05
  It has been a crazy show. I want to say something for all
• 2:07:08
  you guys out there. I I hate Computers.
• 2:07:12
  I hate all this garbage because where I'm working on getting a
• 2:07:16
  new computer into the studio. And we have so much monitors
• 2:07:20
  going on, you know, one fast router.
• 2:07:23
  And when something isn't working, when you have all the
• 2:07:27
  computers running, the show, it always stalls on the speed of
• 2:07:31
  the show. So I want to apologize to the
• 2:07:33
  fans. It doesn't usually happen like
• 2:07:34
  this. By Monday, everything should be
• 2:07:37
  good and no mistake from any of my guys, on the back end because
• 2:07:41
  it's been a crazy one. I'm trying to keep, you know,
• 2:07:44
  trying to keep my head high, but sometimes, when when shows like
• 2:07:49
  this happening, you try to fight through it.
• 2:07:51
  You fighting through it. It's like a war with the
• 2:07:53
  computers, the Internet and the sound.
• 2:07:56
  So I want to apologize to all the fans.
• 2:07:58
  It's not you guys. It's just the back end stuff.
• 2:08:01
  That happens during a show. Anyways we call this all righty.
• 2:08:05
  That all righty. All righty.
• 2:08:18
  Then welcome back to our literary segment.
• 2:08:22
  This is where we take one of Arrow's articles that are posted
• 2:08:25
  on the worldwide sports radio.com.
• 2:08:28
  Please go check out all of our Clips.
• 2:08:30
  All of our great writers not just Errol, we have a whole team
• 2:08:33

• 2:08:38
  himself nithin To give us one time here.
• 2:08:42
  Last name for nith I'm a tundra. What do you like in a zone or
• 2:08:46
  something? Genre.
• 2:08:47
  He's like in his own little Zone he's like looking and staring at
• 2:08:50
  something. Like he gets into these like
• 2:08:52
  state of flocks that he doesn't even know where he is.
• 2:08:54
  I don't know. He's been doing a lot of
• 2:08:56
  troubleshooting this episode. It's been crazy.
• 2:08:59
  It's been a crazy show while trying to figure out all these
• 2:09:02
  different things that's been going on.
• 2:09:03
  But like I said, it's not been as bad as you think it has.
• 2:09:07
  You've actually done a great job.
• 2:09:08
  I'm sure all the fans would feel and say the same.
• 2:09:11
  Let's take a look at this article.
• 2:09:13
  This is one, I'm gonna enjoy reading the first paragraph and
• 2:09:17
  nothing else of 15 years of football therapy.
• 2:09:20
  The 10, regrets that turn New York, Giants, owner John, Mara
• 2:09:24
  into the NFL's. Most stressed man is by Errol
• 2:09:28
  wrote. It a week ago, we got some
• 2:09:30
  comments that Speedy is going to go through with Errol.
• 2:09:33
  After I give you a brief little bit of it.
• 2:09:36
  Here it is. Let me take you back to a
• 2:09:39
  magical football time. The year was 2011, the New York
• 2:09:42
  Giants, shocked the world in Super Bowl. 46, once again
• 2:09:46
  ruining February for Tom Brady and the New England Patriots.
• 2:09:50
  Eli Manning was delivering fourth quarter, Miracles, the
• 2:09:52
  defense of line was hunting quarterbacks like they old them
• 2:09:54
  rent money and Tom Coughlin ran the team with the discipline of
• 2:09:57
  a man who believed being on time meant you were already late,
• 2:10:01
  Giants fans thought another championship window was open.
• 2:10:04
  Instead the franchise entered 15 years of football therapy and
• 2:10:09
  saying he had to center of the chaos as been ordered John
• 2:10:11
  Mayer. So in true Arrow, marks New
• 2:10:14
  York, Sports loud, mouth fashion.
• 2:10:16
  Here are the 10 regrets that turned Giants.
• 2:10:19
  The Giants from champions in the NFL's longest running rebuild.
• 2:10:25
  Number 10, 2012 the Super Bowl hangover, nobody wanted to admit
• 2:10:30
  2013, Eli verse the interception, fairy 2414 the
• 2:10:35
  offense that needed GPS, and we're just going to keep
• 2:10:38
  skipping. Because it's still bad.
• 2:10:39
  Oh, man. Remember it is 2016 this season,
• 2:10:44
  that fooled everyone. Here's the famous picture then,
• 2:10:48
  came the infamous Boat Trip photo before the playoff game
• 2:10:52
  against the Green Bay Packers and Aaron Rodgers the offense
• 2:10:56
  vanished Rogers. Lit them up season over The
• 2:11:01
  Giants receivers went on a Miami Boat Trip before the game.
• 2:11:04
  Unfortunately, their hands stayed there.
• 2:11:09
  Speedy. All right, we'll start this one
• 2:11:11
  with signal important. 70. Tom Coughlin had never been
• 2:11:14
  fired Reece. Destroyed the Giants with awful
• 2:11:16
  drafts, the team culture awful and how many players have been a
• 2:11:19
  lot better elsewhere. Signal important, thank you for
• 2:11:22
  your nice, little message. Yeah.
• 2:11:24
  Tom Coughlin to me was the biggest regret that John Mayer
• 2:11:28
  and Mr. Reese had and and pretty much got reset of there and
• 2:11:31
  brought in gmf to GM. I mean, gentleman came in ruined
• 2:11:36
  the organization when it came to free agency.
• 2:11:38
  If Tom Coughlin was still there, and I do believe that if Tom
• 2:11:42
  Coughlin got the offense, I mean the defensive lineman that he
• 2:11:46
  asked for I think Tom Coughlin stays there for at least another
• 2:11:49
  five years. Probably wins another Super Bowl
• 2:11:51
  and maybe Odell Beckham would have been gone and maybe bring
• 2:11:56
  in somebody else that can actually fit with this
• 2:11:58
  organization. I think the biggest loss was Tom
• 2:12:01
  Coughlin and even when we interviewed Tom Coughlin, he
• 2:12:04
  would not answer. What he thought about the way
• 2:12:06
  the organization organization treated him.
• 2:12:08
  John Merrick came to his foundation party.
• 2:12:11
  So I didn't want to I know he didn't want to throw John Mayer
• 2:12:14
  under the bus because he was in a viewing.
• 2:12:15
  The same time as Tom Coughlin but it was definitely John Mayer
• 2:12:19
  and ownership. That pretty much parted way was
• 2:12:22
  parted ways with Tom coughing because they hired Ben McAdoo.
• 2:12:25
  So, All right. Another one that blames Rhys as
• 2:12:29
  well. Blowing.
• 2:12:29
  Multiple drafts in a row. Getting zero starting caliber
• 2:12:32
  Talent since then snowballed into a dysfunctional
• 2:12:34
  organization. Well, Reese catch.
• 2:12:36
  Credit for all the Super Bowls. They won for some reason.
• 2:12:38
  I don't understand why he was there and he was a part when it
• 2:12:42
  came to the growth in and the growing of some of the players
• 2:12:46
  in some of the free agents that he brought in.
• 2:12:48
  But let's be honest, it was all Tom Coughlin Tom, Coughlin got
• 2:12:52
  everybody to buy in. Think about it.
• 2:12:54
  All the players that were there. Justin Tuck ocm of your all of
• 2:12:59
  these guys they had to buy into it.
• 2:13:01
  All of them and the fact is they transitioned from 2007 to 2011.
• 2:13:06
  They beat an undefeated Patriots, team and in 2011 met
• 2:13:09
  the Patriots again with a completely different team.
• 2:13:12
  Really some of the defensive players were still there, but it
• 2:13:15
  was completely different, and different wide receivers
• 2:13:19
  different players, different Playmakers Manningham and an
• 2:13:23
  older Victor. Cruz in 2011, it was a
• 2:13:26
  completely The different team than 2007.
• 2:13:28
  And I just think Tom Coughlin had everybody Buy in.
• 2:13:32
  I think the loss was Jerry Reese.
• 2:13:35
  And I mean, Jerry Reese ruining it.
• 2:13:37
  And pretty much parting ways with Tom Coughlin.
• 2:13:39
  All right. This one comes from acceptable
• 2:13:41
  Fair 1590. I think the coaching Carousel is
• 2:13:44
  what he blames the philosophy of the Giants.
• 2:13:45
  Going for the coaches. Give this guy, two, three years,
• 2:13:47
  and hope it works out. That's been pretty much every
• 2:13:49
  coach recently acceptable. You're absolutely right.
• 2:13:51
  If we go on some of the false advertised players and coaches,
• 2:13:56
  they brought in over the years, you have you shaking your head
• 2:13:58
  and, and John Mayer is behind it.
• 2:14:00
  Think about it. You decided to bring in Ben
• 2:14:03
  McAdoo. How long was he there before?
• 2:14:05
  He decided to? Yeah.
• 2:14:06
  Ruin Eli Manning's. What 210 games in a row or
• 2:14:11
  whatever. The number was he decided to
• 2:14:13
  bring in Geno Smith that really worked.
• 2:14:15
  And then all the different things that he's done, bringing
• 2:14:19
  in Joe, judge bringing in all these different coaches, even
• 2:14:22
  Brian dabel. I mean, all these guys were
• 2:14:25
  false advert. I play coaches and players and
• 2:14:29
  they really a lot of these guys came from Bill.
• 2:14:32
  Belichick's tree. So stay away from Bill
• 2:14:35
  Belichick's tree stop going to Bill.
• 2:14:37
  Belichick Street, when you're bringing in coaches, they went
• 2:14:40
  with John Harbaugh, at least that's offset because he can't
• 2:14:43
  stand Bill, Belichick with the deflategate because he was
• 2:14:46
  behind that deflategate and the whole situation over there in
• 2:14:49
  Indianapolis. So I mean, maybe they're moving
• 2:14:52
  towards the right direction or maybe not, they still have Joe
• 2:14:55
  Schoen there. So I doubt it.
• 2:14:56
  All right, this is G-Men fan 04, giving listening some of the
• 2:14:59
  worst moves. Kenny galilee's contract which
• 2:15:00
  we both know was horrible at the time, but a lot of fans like
• 2:15:03
  that trading back in the 2021 draft.
• 2:15:06
  The great area is Tony Jeff's boy and get a first round pick
• 2:15:09
  in that deal for Justin Fields. That's not to be evil witch.
• 2:15:12
  We'll get to in a bit and then hiring the great Shane Bowen.
• 2:15:15
  Well, you know what, I felt about Evan Neal and how about
• 2:15:18
  tip Ito has been a false advertising falsely advertised
• 2:15:23
  as a player coming up from Oregon and coming.
• 2:15:26
  To the NFL being this great pass rusher.
• 2:15:30
  But Kenny golladay was an absolute false player to bring
• 2:15:34
  in and they couldn't find any free agents that wanted to come
• 2:15:36
  here. So they went with Kenny
• 2:15:38
  golladay. Four years, 72 million.
• 2:15:39
  It was a hard, 40 million dollars guaranteed for a guy
• 2:15:42
  that barely played on the New York Giants as far as winking.
• 2:15:47
  And all the different things that have happened over the last
• 2:15:50
  couple of years. It has a lot to do with
• 2:15:52
  ownership and Mara and Tish. I like I said you can only hope
• 2:15:58
  John Harbaugh is going to change the the future for this
• 2:16:01
  organization. Yeah.
• 2:16:02
  They paid King holiday. A little extra to make sure the
• 2:16:05
  Eagles won get him. Meanwhile, the Eagles got AJ,
• 2:16:07
  Brown, the very next year, and finally, we'll finish it off
• 2:16:10
  with strategically 24 reasons, one through tiny just basically
• 2:16:13
  says the same thing like treatment of Tom Coughlin until
• 2:16:15
  this is fixed. They'll be no respectability if
• 2:16:18
  you're a giant fan. And again, you can go back and
• 2:16:21
  all the dumb stupid moves that Giants have made, the biggest
• 2:16:24
  the number one, and the thing that is taking the Giants back,
• 2:16:28
  so many years to Superstar them. And one of the top teams in the
• 2:16:33
  NFL is Tom Coughlin when Tom Coughlin was let go.
• 2:16:38
  Then he went to the Jacksonville Jaguars, the organization that
• 2:16:41
  he was there before. He went to the New York Giants,
• 2:16:43
  he became like the president or assistant GM over there.
• 2:16:47
  It didn't work out over there in Jacksonville on a second term as
• 2:16:51
  an executive but Tom Coughlin is one of the best offensive Minds.
• 2:16:56
  The the Giants have ever had Jerry Reese and him just didn't
• 2:17:00
  see eye-to-eye and and slowly, but surely he was forced to
• 2:17:04
  bring in Ben McAdoo. Think about it.
• 2:17:06
  He didn't want Ben McAdoo. He fired his offensive
• 2:17:09
  coordinator because John married didn't want him there anymore.
• 2:17:12
  And and that was an offensive coin in there, helped him win
• 2:17:15
  2007. And 2011 and decided hey you
• 2:17:19
  know what, we don't want him here anymore.
• 2:17:21
  So we're gonna tell you to pick this guy Ben McAdoo.
• 2:17:23
  He's the, he's a bright bright offensive mind.
• 2:17:26
  That's coming to the gonna be a great coach.
• 2:17:29
  In the NFL, he's going to be great for Eli Manning and he was
• 2:17:32
  good for Eli Manning for the two years that he was there.
• 2:17:34
  Eli Manning at some of his best seasons under Ben McAdoo.
• 2:17:37
  But as soon as he took over, For Tom Coughlin had one good season
• 2:17:42
  which was the season that everybody knows the boat and
• 2:17:44
  Aaron Rodgers in the first round gets knocked out and Odell
• 2:17:47
  Beckham didn't show up because his hands he had pot hands in
• 2:17:49
  the game for some reason. I mean, whereas those gloves
• 2:17:52
  that it sticks to but nevertheless Tom Coughlin being
• 2:17:56
  extorted and and parting ways with the organization away.
• 2:18:01
  He did was the reason why I believe the Giants are in a
• 2:18:05
  position that they're in and has been in a position they've been
• 2:18:08
  in for the last 1413 years, it's been horrible.
• 2:18:12
  If you're a giant fan, you only hope that John Harbaugh will fix
• 2:18:16
  things up if he doesn't I don't know what to say, maybe get Tom
• 2:18:21
  Coughlin out of retirement. I mean, what is he 86 years old?
• 2:18:24
  Now I don't know. I maybe reach out to Tom and say
• 2:18:29
  would you like to come back for a year or two?
• 2:18:30
  I mean, Think about it. Pete Carroll still doing, he's
• 2:18:34
  the oldest coach in the NFL going into last season for the
• 2:18:37
  Raiders think he was like 7718 would you like to you know coach
• 2:18:46
  another three years and maybe one another Super Bowl for us.
• 2:18:49
  So I don't know Wellington Maurer with that was the last
• 2:18:53
  gift he gave to John and and Tish was Tom Coughlin he was the
• 2:18:58
  one that hired Tom Coughlin he was not John Mayer.
• 2:19:01
  Wellington Mara his father was the one that hired Tom Coughlin
• 2:19:07
  House, it worked out since. Oh, know what to say, I feel bad
• 2:19:11
  for you, giant fans, but I actually don't because I'm a Jet
• 2:19:13
  fan, I feel bad from me more than I feel bad for you guys.
• 2:19:16
  At least you guys got to experience, 2007, and 2011.
• 2:19:19
  I never got to experience. 1969, so I have had full falsely been
• 2:19:27
  advertised, you're in and year out, quit and Colts.
• 2:19:30
  He knows all about it. He was part of that organization
• 2:19:33
  and we'll have him on the show in a week or two.
• 2:19:35
  So you guys will get the chance to get to know quitting colds
• 2:19:40
  and why guys? Like Bart Scott and everybody
• 2:19:43
  talks talks trash about this guy, but this guy has been
• 2:19:47
  nothing but a good public speaker and he has never thrown
• 2:19:51
  the Jets onto the bus ever and some of these jet players just
• 2:19:55
  don't give him enough respect. So we love him and happy to have
• 2:19:59
  him on the show and be a part of our show moving forward.
• 2:20:00
  So that is going to be the new announcement.
• 2:20:03
  I we are going to announce when that's going to be happening but
• 2:20:07
  quit and coals will be a stay on this show moving forward and I
• 2:20:11
  think we're we're pushing for March 23rd.
• 2:20:14
  So fans all the fans listening to us.
• 2:20:17
  It will be quick and Coles joining on the show where very
• 2:20:20
  excited about it and he's got a lot to give to the show.
• 2:20:24
  Great personality knows his Sports.
• 2:20:27
  It's going to be really, really fun moving forward.
• 2:20:31
  Oh, right in that? It's been a crazy one man.
• 2:20:34
  I have been Thrown off all day and all night.
• 2:20:38
  So, and I'm dealing, I'm dealing with, you know, My own
• 2:20:42
  situation. Anyways, in the World, Baseball,
• 2:20:45
  Classic Team, USA Advanced to the quarterfinals, despite
• 2:20:49
  losing to team, Italy, eight to six in their final game of the
• 2:20:55
  pool play in group. B.
• 2:20:57
  USA only got into the quarterfinals because Italy
• 2:21:01
  helped them out on Wednesday. By defeating Mexico, nine to
• 2:21:04
  one. If Mexico had one and kept Italy
• 2:21:08
  to four runs or less, Aaron judge, Kyle Rowley, and all the
• 2:21:11
  boys would have been sent packing back to spring training
• 2:21:16
  early in, and in an interview with MLB Network.
• 2:21:20
  Earlier in the day before the Italy laws, USA manager, Mark
• 2:21:25
  DeRosa thought, the Team USA had old lady advance to the
• 2:21:29
  quarter-finals and had bench Bryce Harper, Alex, bregman and
• 2:21:33
  Cal Raleigh for game for the rest of the days, MLB Legal
• 2:21:39
  Office, forced the MLB. Work to take down that video out
• 2:21:44
  of embarrassment to Rosa. Also started Mets, Phenom, Nolan
• 2:21:48
  McLean in The crucial game, despite dealing with vertigo
• 2:21:52
  throughout the entire tournament, he allowed three
• 2:21:55
  runs including two homers and was pulled after the second
• 2:21:59
  inning Team. USA will face Canada Friday
• 2:22:01
  night in the quarter-finals if they win, they will play the
• 2:22:05
  winner of the Dominican Republic.
• 2:22:06
  The Dominican Republic and Korea in the semi-finals on Sunday.
• 2:22:11
  On the other side of the bracket, Saturday, Italy and
• 2:22:15
  takes on Puerto Rico and Japan will face Venezuela.
• 2:22:19
  The winner will face off on the winners will face off on Monday
• 2:22:23
  leading to Tuesday's championship game in Miami.
• 2:22:28
  I know everybody's going to take shots at Mark to Roseau.
• 2:22:32
  As well as she should. We don't know the truth and I
• 2:22:35
  know everybody out there. Knowing that marked Arosa was a
• 2:22:40
  former player. As been a leader of Team USA.
• 2:22:43
  For the last, I would say five years.
• 2:22:45
  He's been a part of Team USA baseball, very liked by the
• 2:22:49
  players. He will be a major league coach
• 2:22:52
  one way or another. I believe that he's interviewed
• 2:22:55
  for the Yankees. A couple of times he's
• 2:22:57
  interviewed for the Angels, a couple of times, he is going to
• 2:23:00
  get a coaching job and management job in the end in the
• 2:23:04
  MLB in the very near future. But I don't know what the truth
• 2:23:09
  is. The fact is, is they lost
• 2:23:11
  against Italy. They did they lost against
• 2:23:13
  Italy? It was embarrassing.
• 2:23:15
  Some of their Big Boppers have not really hit except in certain
• 2:23:19
  games. Aaron judge has played well in
• 2:23:22
  the tournament but a lot of these guys are not hitting Think
• 2:23:25
  about it, they're walking a lot but they're not getting enough
• 2:23:28
  runs this team. They dominated their first two
• 2:23:31
  games. They played against teams like
• 2:23:33
  Brazil and England. Think about it.
• 2:23:38
  Brazil in England, two teams that nobody gives a crap about
• 2:23:43
  How many major league players were on team Brazil?
• 2:23:46
  They had a 17 year old player from a former Major League
• 2:23:49
  player pitching. He's still in high school.
• 2:23:53
  And everybody was bragging about how he got Aaron judge to push
• 2:23:56
  into a double play. Please.
• 2:24:01
  They have beaten nobody. They really have beaten nobody.
• 2:24:05
  They're three in one in a tournament that they should be
• 2:24:08
  dominated. Italy is not a good team.
• 2:24:11
  They're foreign. Oh, They're to me.
• 2:24:14
  They're in a bad bracket now. They got to, they honestly think
• 2:24:18
  about it. They are either going to play if
• 2:24:22
  let's say and I'm just saying. Right now.
• 2:24:26
  Where is where is Italy right now?
• 2:24:29
  They're in the final. They're in Saturday's bracket
• 2:24:30
  against Puerto Rico. If they beat Puerto Rico, they
• 2:24:33
  have to face Japan. So, Puerto Rico is not as good
• 2:24:38
  as they could be because of the whole insurance thing.
• 2:24:40
  But if some of their players, And some of the pieces were on
• 2:24:44
  this team, Puerto Rico would be a very very dangerous team for a
• 2:24:48
  quarter-final game and I still think they're dangerous because
• 2:24:50
  they have some major league players on that roster.
• 2:24:54
  Japan is the dangerous team. Japan has made this tournament
• 2:24:59
  besides one game they've made it look really, really easy.
• 2:25:01
  So as the so is the Dominican Republic.
• 2:25:05
  They've made it look really, really easy because of their
• 2:25:07
  lineup. They don't have much pissing the
• 2:25:09
  Dominican Republic. And everybody expects the United
• 2:25:12
  States to be Team Canada and the Dominican Republic to be career.
• 2:25:15
  Everybody is expecting that those two teams to move on to
• 2:25:20
  the semi-finals to compete against one another to compete
• 2:25:24
  against Japan. those are the three best teams, and as far as
• 2:25:28
  Vegas is concerned, The talent is there.
• 2:25:30
  And you know what I hate about AJ percent ski is every time I
• 2:25:34
  hear him doing the play-by-play and analyzing team USA's talent
• 2:25:40
  and calling them, the dream team of baseball and comparing them
• 2:25:44
  to the 92 Dream Team. It's ridiculous.
• 2:25:47
  Are they good? Yes, they've got a tremendous
• 2:25:50
  amount of talent. This is still not an all-world
• 2:25:53
  pitching staff. They have a bunch of great
• 2:25:55
  pictures. We saw skiing.
• 2:25:58
  We've seen scrubble a little, I don't even think we see school
• 2:26:02
  ball, he's not pitching anymore. No.
• 2:26:04
  So I don't even think we seen him.
• 2:26:06
  McClain, we saw We have it. We thought this pitching staff
• 2:26:11
  was going to be dominant. Have we seen Clayton Kershaw?
• 2:26:13
  Is he on this roster? I haven't seen him yet.
• 2:26:18
  This pitching staff that was supposed to be the best pitching
• 2:26:21
  staff in this tournament. That's not showing up.
• 2:26:24
  They really have it. It's a turn off when you watch
• 2:26:27
  this team and you're trying to figure out what this team is.
• 2:26:30
  So to do in this tournament marked a rose are, what is a
• 2:26:35
  manager have to do? He's just got to work the
• 2:26:37
  bullpen. That's what a manager does.
• 2:26:39
  I mean, you've got all this Talent on your roster.
• 2:26:43
  You play this guy, you play this guy, you play this guy.
• 2:26:45
  This guy gets hurt. I'm gonna you, so boxing, you
• 2:26:48
  get hurt. And what do you put in?
• 2:26:49
  He put in your man. It just the talent is there.
• 2:26:57
  It is. And I know everybody's gonna
• 2:26:59
  complain while I listen to Stephen A Smith the other day.
• 2:27:02
  He says, he says that Mark DeRose is a joke.
• 2:27:05
  He should know the rules. He should understand, you know,
• 2:27:08
  the analytics he is, he's a manager.
• 2:27:11
  What is he know? What the hell does?
• 2:27:15
  Stephen A Smith know, what does he know about managing in
• 2:27:18
  baseball? It isn't no crap.
• 2:27:21
  He really doesn't. It to me.
• 2:27:26
  There's a lot of pressure on the manager in this tournament,
• 2:27:28
  especially, Mark DeRosa because Team USA with the talent they
• 2:27:31
  have should be in the finals, and they should really be Japan.
• 2:27:34
  This is the best team assembled for Team.
• 2:27:36
  USA, baseball the best. Does that mean?
• 2:27:39
  This is the best overall team that Team USA can put together?
• 2:27:42
  No. But they have a lot of great
• 2:27:46
  talented players on this roster. And they should be able to
• 2:27:51
  compete again, the elite teams the Dominican Republic.
• 2:27:54
  And team Japan. It bothers me that.
• 2:27:59
  You think about what this team has provided in his tournament.
• 2:28:02
  It has she's shaking her head. Because we talk about this is
• 2:28:06
  America's pastime and watching the Dominican Republic.
• 2:28:10
  Play and watch Japan play. They have played at a top level.
• 2:28:15
  And by the way, the Dominican Republic don't have their best
• 2:28:18
  players, they don't have their best pitching.
• 2:28:21
  Japan has a lot of their good players but not all of them.
• 2:28:27
  Team USA has a roster of stars they do.
• 2:28:31
  Dream Team wise know, they don't have guys that they have great
• 2:28:36
  players but these guys some of these guys are at the tail ends
• 2:28:39
  of their career Bryce Harper is not the same player he wants.
• 2:28:41
  Whereas Schwarber is a good player but and he had a great
• 2:28:44
  year last year, but he's not the same player.
• 2:28:47
  They got some young players that we got a chance to see and and
• 2:28:50
  you know skins is a great young pitcher.
• 2:28:53
  One of the best in the league School bowl is but we didn't get
• 2:28:56
  a chance to see him because Detroit didn't want to play.
• 2:28:58
  Didn't want him to play. They sent him back to Detroit so
• 2:29:01
  we didn't get a chance to see him.
• 2:29:03
  It's just honestly. Is it worth?
• 2:29:08
  And by the way, I found out there's a gold medal.
• 2:29:10
  So there is Metals being divided out to the teams.
• 2:29:14
  So, there's a gold medal. There's a silver medal, and
• 2:29:17
  there's a bronze medal. So, there it is like the
• 2:29:19
  Olympics. It's not a trophy, there's
• 2:29:21
  metals But is it worth putting your body on the line after
• 2:29:27
  watching this tournament and and I see Team USA.
• 2:29:30
  They're playing hard. They want to win.
• 2:29:32
  They do. But how much do they want to
• 2:29:35
  win? Is it more important to make
• 2:29:37
  sure that you're healthy for your team and your organization?
• 2:29:39
  And the amount of money that you're going to be making?
• 2:29:41
  Because the organization is paying you a lot of money to
• 2:29:45
  make sure that you guys are going to be ready for 162 game,
• 2:29:48
  baseball season, and you're playing in a World Baseball
• 2:29:50
  Classic. And you're not even playing at
• 2:29:53
  the top level. You're really not, you're not
• 2:29:55
  playing at your top level because this is spring training
• 2:29:58
  for them. That's what it is.
• 2:30:01
  They obviously, they are in the offseason, they were, they've
• 2:30:04
  been practicing and working out and doing the things that
• 2:30:07
  they're supposed to do, but they're getting their swings.
• 2:30:11
  In a world, baseball Classics against 17 and 18 year olds.
• 2:30:15
  That's what they're doing. They think about it.
• 2:30:18
  How many 17 and 18 and 19 year olds have Team USA seen in this
• 2:30:22
  tournament. This is not major league talent
• 2:30:27
  that they're playing Italy who was on their mouths when they
• 2:30:31
  were playing Team USA Noah Noah Noah was on the mountain.
• 2:30:34
  Oh no, he was like, he was on the mount and Because it wasn't
• 2:30:38
  no. No pitched against Brazil.
• 2:30:40
  That's why when you said no lie. No, yeah, it's the game after
• 2:30:43
  not Brazil. I'm sorry, Mexico.
• 2:30:45
  He pitched against Mexico. I'm pretty sure they played
• 2:30:50
  against the pitcher. That is not an elite pitcher and
• 2:30:53
  a major leaks. So that that to me, is to me
• 2:30:59
  worrisome because you haven't played against any Elite pitcher
• 2:31:02
  yet in this tournament, none of the pictures that have been on
• 2:31:05
  the mount. The picture that they played
• 2:31:07
  against England was not an elite pitcher.
• 2:31:09
  The pitchers that they faced against Brazil were not in late
• 2:31:13
  pictures to Speedy. G have it.
• 2:31:14
  Who is it? Michael Lorenzen.
• 2:31:15
  So as a reliever so they faced off against a relief, her, a
• 2:31:20
  reliever, in baseball, a guy that I've never even heard of
• 2:31:23
  Michael Lorenzen. This lineup and yes, they didn't
• 2:31:28
  have Bryce Harper and Alex bregman and Cal rally but they
• 2:31:32
  had everybody else playing in the game.
• 2:31:33
  They had Aaron judge still They had schwarber.
• 2:31:37
  That oldest Talent. And they lost against a relief,
• 2:31:41
  pitcher 8 to 6. To me, that's million.
• 2:31:45
  But I'm not blaming Mark DeRosa if there's anybody that I have
• 2:31:49
  to blame. I'm blaming the players.
• 2:31:52
  The players got to go out and they aren't play.
• 2:31:55
  When you have a light up this good with this kind of depth,
• 2:31:57
  you should not be striking out and batting into double plays.
• 2:32:02
  Here, you should be walking taking pitches and and not
• 2:32:07
  swinging away on pitches that you can't swing at.
• 2:32:10
  And that's what happened against team, Italy.
• 2:32:12
  Team Italy dominated that game. The whole game.
• 2:32:15
  They had the early lead Team, USA was playing catch up the
• 2:32:19
  whole game. The whole game.
• 2:32:23
  Embarrassing. He Middle East, not even
• 2:32:26
  supposed to be in the quarterfinals.
• 2:32:28
  Mexico was Mexico was supposed to be the team Mexico played
• 2:32:33
  well in the last World Baseball Classic.
• 2:32:37
  Team Italy should not be four know, they should not have
• 2:32:39
  beaten Mexico, the way they did not one, they should not have
• 2:32:42
  beaten you. United States ate to six They
• 2:32:45
  have a they have a bunch of major league players, elite
• 2:32:48
  players? No.
• 2:32:49
  No is probably the most elite player they have on that roster.
• 2:32:54
  Embarrassing. Yeah it's a team with a lot of
• 2:32:56
  prospects that are good but not the rate me already Talent.
• 2:33:00
  Oh taglioni, the kid that got called up from the Kansas City.
• 2:33:02
  Last year. Please Kyle Teel was a top
• 2:33:04
  prospect when talking about trade 20 year old.
• 2:33:06
  I know that's what I think they're good prospects but not
• 2:33:09
  major league ready Talent like the United States has.
• 2:33:11
  So there's a couple of things I will.
• 2:33:12
  I will take shots at DeRose before and there's a couple
• 2:33:15
  things I think that it's getting overblown for one thing, Bryce
• 2:33:17
  Harper was struggling, so I don't mind giving him a day off,
• 2:33:20
  he was actually one of the worst hitters that the USA had in the
• 2:33:22
  tournament Cal. Valley is a catcher like him,
• 2:33:24
  been putting its not like, Will Smith's a slouch at the place?
• 2:33:27
  Like they're like, they're throwing in a No Name, catcher
• 2:33:30
  to play for Kyle rally to give him a day off.
• 2:33:32
  I'm fine with them playing Will Smith there.
• 2:33:34
  Those things, I don't think Darrow should be playing for him
• 2:33:36
  coming out publicly and saying they weren't prepared.
• 2:33:38
  Yeah, that looks really bad and I was being honest.
• 2:33:41
  Yeah, of course. And that looks really bad
• 2:33:43
  because really, I don't think it's being bad.
• 2:33:45
  He was on his. How about this?
• 2:33:48
  It's not just Del Rosa, how about his coaching staff short?
• 2:33:51
  How about the executives? How about, who built this team?
• 2:33:55
  You gonna blame that all on to roses, just the manager He was
• 2:33:59
  going into these last three or four games, knowing that they're
• 2:34:03
  going into the quarterfinals, they're arguably the best and
• 2:34:06
  most talented team in this tournament.
• 2:34:08
  Yeah, the other thing too I think is McLean like I'm
• 2:34:10
  throwing him into the fire when they knew he was dealing with a
• 2:34:12
  lot and I know it may or maybe even regardless if they quote
• 2:34:16
  unquote actually clinched or not like that wasn't the game to do
• 2:34:19
  it in. I think Speedy he's had he's had
• 2:34:21
  vertigo Ole last season, it was never reported he when you have
• 2:34:25
  vertigo it's not the first time he's ever had vertigo, he's had
• 2:34:29
  vertical his whole life. I've had vertical my whole life,
• 2:34:33
  it just doesn't appear at the age of 22, 23 years old.
• 2:34:37
  He's had it forever stop with this stop blame it.
• 2:34:41
  Oh well he has vertical, he had vertical his whole life and
• 2:34:46
  that's look bad and not telling them then because then that
• 2:34:49
  should have been something medically revealed.
• 2:34:51
  We talked about what the Ravens earlier, like you're supposed to
• 2:34:52
  have these types of diagnosis. And why is he, if he's not
• 2:34:56
  revealing a wire, they not forcing their hands.
• 2:34:58
  Like the Tigers, in that case, To the Mets.
• 2:35:00
  Look, bad in that as well but I don't think I agree.
• 2:35:02
  I don't think all of it is on DeRosa but this is the other
• 2:35:04
  thing too. When you look at a teen that's
• 2:35:06
  supposed to be this quote unquote Dream Team on paper too.
• 2:35:08
  Like a lot of these teams you see them do things with
• 2:35:12
  uncontrollable aspects in sports like this.
• 2:35:14
  Obviously you see with hockey too there's a reason that you
• 2:35:17
  see these loaded teams still go down in the Olympics too.
• 2:35:19
  Like Canada this year to the United States.
• 2:35:20
  Like they're doing these self-inflicted mistakes, too.
• 2:35:22
  USA cannot do that kind of thing in baseball, because there's a
• 2:35:26
  reason, Japan is one a lot of these tournaments.
• 2:35:27
  So they have a lot of these guys that are already professionals
• 2:35:29
  too. They're not really, I'm not
• 2:35:31
  saying they're not worried about their egos but they're not as
• 2:35:33
  worried about the ego is like the United States are and the
• 2:35:35
  timing of this tournament with being smart right before
• 2:35:37
  screening doesn't help either. By the way, one of her guys
• 2:35:40
  listening to the show right now. Christopher Christopher says
• 2:35:43
  that Lorenzen pitched a no-hitter two years ago so yes
• 2:35:46
  one of those random fluke, no headers, but he's still pitched
• 2:35:49
  a no-hitter and a major league. I didn't Lorenzo hidden in the
• 2:35:52
  minors a little bit. Yeah, he was one of the picture
• 2:35:56
  guy. Yeah.
• 2:35:56
  And they don't think he hit well enough.
• 2:35:59
  To keep it going in the major Cincinnati, I think tried him a
• 2:36:01
  little bit as a hitter, but regardless he's I don't know
• 2:36:05
  much about him, and for the Team USA to swing and Miss as much as
• 2:36:10
  they did in that game was embarrassing, but you can't
• 2:36:13
  blame that I'm Mark to Rosa. I'm sorry, the manager doesn't
• 2:36:17
  get these guys ready to play in the game.
• 2:36:20
  What he does is he just gives him a speech in the locker room
• 2:36:23
  and he makes sure that his Bullpen is ready to go and get
• 2:36:26
  ready to play when they need to. So, I, to me managers in major
• 2:36:31
  league in baseball, especially in in the big games, they have
• 2:36:35
  to understand the game. They have to understand where to
• 2:36:37
  put the players in position to score but when you have this
• 2:36:41
  kind of talent, you just tell them to go out and play and have
• 2:36:43
  fun. And they're just not, they don't
• 2:36:45
  look like to have fun unless they're cooking the kicking the
• 2:36:48
  crap out of these teams. Look what they did against team.
• 2:36:51
  You know, the United Kingdom team England and look what they
• 2:36:54
  did against Brazil because they everybody expected them to do
• 2:36:57
  that when you get a chance to play a team like You know, Italy
• 2:37:01
  or something of that magnitude and Italy's not good, but they
• 2:37:05
  have some Talent much better talented in England.
• 2:37:07
  Does and Brazil you got to go out there and play not be
• 2:37:11
  embarrassed by a team that you're better than that's all
• 2:37:13
  I'm gonna say about that and they beat, they barely beat
• 2:37:16
  Mexico. Yeah, they barely beat Mastery
• 2:37:18
  right. But don't those teams like
• 2:37:20
  Italy? Look like they're having so much
• 2:37:21
  more fun than the United States like they're drinking.
• 2:37:24
  You know, he said the first base in past Contino, he had three
• 2:37:28
  home runs in that game. They're drinking espresso giving
• 2:37:32
  each other kisses on the cheeks. They're Italian-American all of
• 2:37:35
  them, you know, it's or almost all of them.
• 2:37:38
  I guess I'm not sure if it's true, 100% and ship to be
• 2:37:41
  eligible. Well, yeah, but
• 2:37:44
  Italian-American. I'm a quarter.
• 2:37:46
  Italian is a lot. I think there's a bunch of guys
• 2:37:49
  that are able to get in and get that that citizenship and it's
• 2:37:53
  like a family thing that they do.
• 2:37:54
  Anyway, it's cool. I love it.
• 2:37:57
  How come we don't see that from the United States Dominican
• 2:38:00
  Republic. They're going nuts.
• 2:38:01
  Every time they do anything. I'll tell you that from
• 2:38:03
  Venezuela too. I'll tell you why, because
• 2:38:05
  they're expected to win. There's a lot of pressure on
• 2:38:07
  Team, USA there with this talent and the way they've built this
• 2:38:11
  team and going into this, this WBC, you have Aaron George and
• 2:38:16
  Bryce Harper and all these star players going together and
• 2:38:19
  wanting to win a gold medal and take the championship home to
• 2:38:23
  Team USA. That's only one.
• 2:38:24
  This tournament one time. Japan is one at three times and
• 2:38:27
  they want to get back to that prominent top of the world as
• 2:38:30
  baseballs. Great, you know, State and to me
• 2:38:34
  the greatest country when it comes to baseball and and
• 2:38:37
  there's a lot of pressure on them, the Dominican Republic,
• 2:38:39
  don't have a lot of pressure. I'll tell you why, half of their
• 2:38:42
  players didn't even play. In this tournament because of
• 2:38:44
  insurance is and and, and some of them are not ready to play.
• 2:38:48
  They're the injuries and Puerto Rico too.
• 2:38:50
  No insurance is an injuries, Japan.
• 2:38:53
  Japan, Japan just knows the way they set up the bracket every
• 2:38:57
  single time and the WBC. They're going to the finals,
• 2:39:00
  look at their bracket. who are they challenged who's
• 2:39:03
  challenging them out of all those teams, Italy, know, Puerto
• 2:39:07
  Rico, not really. I found if Venezuela actually
• 2:39:12
  shocks the world and beats Japan, that would be a shocker.
• 2:39:15
  That's there's no way in hell Venezuela is going to win that
• 2:39:18
  game. So Puerto Rican and Puerto Rico
• 2:39:20
  and Italy. There's not a chance in hell.
• 2:39:23
  They're scared of any of those teams.
• 2:39:24
  Look what the United States have to go through.
• 2:39:26
  If they be Canada, which they should?
• 2:39:29
  They gonna play the Dominican Republic?
• 2:39:31
  Because there's no way is being eating them.
• 2:39:33
  They're gonna play the Dominican Republic.
• 2:39:35
  And then after that, they got to play Japan in the finals.
• 2:39:38
  They have the hardest route to win this luxurious gold medal.
• 2:39:44
  That everybody is bragging about, So honestly, if, if you
• 2:39:49
  would ask me, there's more pressure on Team USA.
• 2:39:51
  And anybody could you imagine if Teen USA did not come out into
• 2:39:55
  the quarter-finals? Think about that.
• 2:39:57
  It would be Mexico, Canada. I mean, come on, Mexico and
• 2:40:01
  Canada, and the Dominican Republic in Korea.
• 2:40:04
  I mean, you would already know who's going to the finals.
• 2:40:06
  It would be the Dominican Republic and Japan.
• 2:40:09
  Unless some crazy thing happens. How come it was like Joe Torre
• 2:40:14
  was the original like Team USA wsbc Coach.
• 2:40:17
  Forget who the next guy was? But it was another great coach
• 2:40:20
  too Speedy. Maybe you remember who it was?
• 2:40:22
  But how come we ended up with Mark DeRosa?
• 2:40:24
  Because he doesn't seem like a legendary coach.
• 2:40:27
  How come we don't have legendary American coaches.
• 2:40:29
  He hasn't when he what is he? He's not coaching in the majors
• 2:40:34
  know he's not coaching in the majors because he's interviewed
• 2:40:36
  a couple of jobs. And he, there was one job.
• 2:40:39
  I was, why not have the goats coach this team because
• 2:40:43
  obviously, they have no interest in coaching for the WPC.
• 2:40:48
  Look at these, modern managers, Bruce Bochy, just retired and
• 2:40:51
  Terry Francona has health problems.
• 2:40:53
  Oh, and I don't need those guys. I'm saying like the coach of the
• 2:40:56
  year. You know, why don't we have the
• 2:40:58
  reigning coach of the year, the Milwaukee guy, you know, like
• 2:41:01
  why don't we have him? Everyone loves pancakes over
• 2:41:04
  there. I'm just saying like we should
• 2:41:07
  have the best of the best at this and if we can't have them
• 2:41:11
  plays, if it feels like DeRozan, handcuffed too Harrell because
• 2:41:14
  they only can pitch so many innings, they can only, you
• 2:41:18
  know, you want to arrest these guys certain amount of days.
• 2:41:20
  So in my opinion it would have been better off if some of these
• 2:41:23
  guys didn't play and we could have got the guys at the
• 2:41:25
  insurance didn't care about and they can go 100% out there
• 2:41:28
  because I don't know if we're really getting that and that
• 2:41:31
  kind of sucks. I disagree with you, I think
• 2:41:34
  Mark. DeRosa is a quality manager, for
• 2:41:37
  Team USA. I think he is going to be a
• 2:41:40
  manager in the Major League. I, I do believe that the Yankees
• 2:41:44
  interviewed him twice, they really, really, like, Mark
• 2:41:47
  DeRosa, they just went another route with Aaron Boone, but best
• 2:41:51
  believe if Aaron Boone Parts ways with the Yankees in the
• 2:41:54
  long run. Mark, DeRosa is going to be a
• 2:41:57
  name. That everybody's gonna be
• 2:41:58
  talking about again. I know you aren't him.
• 2:42:00
  Yes. Boom, got fired into 2023 100%.
• 2:42:03
  I still want more to Rosa if Mark DeRose is still available
• 2:42:06
  to be a manager in the majors. If Aaron doesn't work out, I
• 2:42:10
  want him. He's a good pretty bad mistake,
• 2:42:13
  though. Like, you have one, like, your
• 2:42:15
  job in, this is to know. What are you first of all?
• 2:42:18
  You have an executive, a bunch of guys that are that hired you.
• 2:42:23
  Those are the guys that are looking at the analytics.
• 2:42:25
  Those are the guys you have to answer to.
• 2:42:27
  Why do you have to know? They should be telling you what,
• 2:42:31
  why even have a manager. All if you don't have to know
• 2:42:34
  anything, they just might just get a blow up doll out there,
• 2:42:37
  might as well get one because that's all the managers do
• 2:42:40
  anyway, even as earthquakes he could do it.
• 2:42:42
  I Mean, I'd be hanging out. With a blow up doll and I if I
• 2:42:46
  had Aaron judge on my roster and Cal Raleigh two of the best
• 2:42:50
  players in the league, two MVP candidates won, won the MVP.
• 2:42:53
  And the other one was the runner-up in the American
• 2:42:54
  League. I'd be playing Dipsy, dude, I've
• 2:42:57
  been playing twister in the dog out.
• 2:42:58
  Fish chicken at this way, you could have all the analytics
• 2:43:01
  Department in the executives or everything.
• 2:43:03
  We'll see if it is the figurehead manager playing
• 2:43:05
  Solitaire. I'd be playing Uno.
• 2:43:06
  I might as well I have all my players playing Uno.
• 2:43:09
  I honestly, it's supposed to be laid back.
• 2:43:11
  You're supposed to have you supposed to have fun.
• 2:43:13
  But when you have all this pressure, everybody all the
• 2:43:16
  analysts everybody is pressuring you guys your, you're the dream
• 2:43:21
  team of baseball. It could you imagine if they
• 2:43:24
  didn't make the quarter-finals? Think about it.
• 2:43:27
  How much backlash they get because they didn't make the
• 2:43:32
  quarterfinals and could you imagine them losing against Team
• 2:43:34
  Canada? Oh, could you?
• 2:43:37
  And if the Dominican Republic B, Team USA.
• 2:43:40
  Oh, They'll be dancing and friends a lot worse, though,
• 2:43:43
  because we're gloating about the hockey championship.
• 2:43:45
  This is our Sports. Yeah, it's to me.
• 2:43:47
  So, who's pitching for Canada against us tomorrow?
• 2:43:50
  It's I saw James PacSun, when I'm pretty sure isn't in the
• 2:43:54
  league anymore was like lights out the other day for Canada.
• 2:43:59
  A big Maple who was really terrible.
• 2:44:01
  So he was good with Tampa, but when he's with the Yankees, he
• 2:44:04
  was terrible. I think it was looks like it's
• 2:44:06
  Michael Michael Soroka pitching for Canada against Logan Webb.
• 2:44:11
  Yeah. I I heard Logan was like I like
• 2:44:13
  Webb better than Rocco strokes but he doesn't look good.
• 2:44:15
  He looked good against Brazil too.
• 2:44:17
  Look liar though. Logan Webb is actually you know,
• 2:44:20
  putting everything on his shoulder.
• 2:44:21
  Think about it, he pitched game one, and now he's pitching game
• 2:44:25
  five. Oh, he's one of the most
• 2:44:27
  underrated pitchers in baseball. He's been this, he's been really
• 2:44:30
  good for a long time now, and he's a Workhorse.
• 2:44:33
  And, as soon as the, the Giants get good again, and I got a
• 2:44:36
  feeling that's gonna be soon. You're gonna start hearing about
• 2:44:39
  him a little bit more. I think I, again, I like Logan
• 2:44:43
  Webb and I like, what he what I've seen in game number one
• 2:44:45
  against Brazil, but I was Brazil.
• 2:44:48
  This is a completely different team.
• 2:44:49
  This is Team Canada and I would have held on to Logan Webb for
• 2:44:53
  the Dominican Republic. Who's pitching against the
• 2:44:56
  Dominican Republic. If they get through Canada I
• 2:44:58
  guess it would be the Ryan or skiing I would imagine it's
• 2:45:02
  skiing is gonna pitch again. I I heard that schemes only
• 2:45:06
  gonna pick one game, I know. Yeah, they're definitely
• 2:45:09
  verifies. Google's God, I didn't hear
• 2:45:10
  anything about skins off hand that he was dropping out.
• 2:45:13
  I don't ride would be the next guy otherwise because,
• 2:45:16
  obviously, they're not gonna do my clean again, scuba Waka, and
• 2:45:21
  Yarbrough he put in Yarborough in that game, by the way.
• 2:45:24
  I, I know that I hate him on the Yankees, really can't?
• 2:45:28
  I don't understand him. He was not good or they got
• 2:45:31
  coming over to save them. Tim Hill is in Tyler Rogers and
• 2:45:36
  will vest. So they added three, you know,
• 2:45:38
  lady Legend, Tyler Rogers. The only one relief that wasn't
• 2:45:43
  terrible. Clay Holmes and Matthew Boyd
• 2:45:47
  will still both be available at the pain.
• 2:45:49
  Boyd got shelled up. I'm not mistaken.
• 2:45:53
  Clayton Kershaw was taking off the roster after is going to be
• 2:45:57
  taking off out after the quarterfinals.
• 2:45:59
  They're going to let him probably make an appearance.
• 2:46:02
  If the game is in for them. In the quarterfinal game
• 2:46:04
  commercial here. Kershaw, they're going to
• 2:46:07
  probably let it bring them in. If they have a big lead or
• 2:46:10
  something by the way, Christopher Sewell in the
• 2:46:12
  comment section, again, relief pitching is the problem with the
• 2:46:14
  team and gold Schmid over Alonso, Alonso did not want to
• 2:46:16
  play, he told he told the he told the Team USA baseball, he
• 2:46:20
  did not want to play. He just moved to a new city with
• 2:46:22
  the Baltimore Orioles and he wanted to settle in with his
• 2:46:25
  family. So and his team, I don't think
• 2:46:26
  that's a problem. Who's I have it here?
• 2:46:29
  It's schemes would go against the Dr or Korea, but the Dr. And
• 2:46:34
  then it's either Joe Ryan or Nolan McLean in the finale if
• 2:46:41
  they get there. That's scary.
• 2:46:44
  You know, I just kind of wish, like, you know, you could have
• 2:46:47
  like, it was five days. Rest, isn't it for school?
• 2:46:50
  If you would have pitch by that from the the first time, like, I
• 2:46:53
  don't really understand why he couldn't pitch in this last
• 2:46:55
  game. I don't really understand that I
• 2:46:57
  don't get, it wasn't a super heavy, that's load either that
• 2:47:00
  Yeah, he didn't even pitched. Did he did?
• 2:47:02
  He even fishing like the, like the the opening game.
• 2:47:07
  So he got on Thursday last Thursday, he pitched in against
• 2:47:11
  team England, right? Because I didn't watch that
• 2:47:12
  game. So did he pitch in that game?
• 2:47:14
  Yeah, he's a little better. Gave us a little home run and
• 2:47:20
  then shut them down, something like that.
• 2:47:22
  Paul schemes pitched a couple Innings, I mean, he pitched.
• 2:47:25
  Yeah, he pitched about four Innings five innings.
• 2:47:27
  So I, I mean, if there's anybody, I want on the mound, on
• 2:47:31
  this team on this roster is Paul skins.
• 2:47:32
  Everybody Logan, Webb's, a good picture but Paul skeins is to
• 2:47:37
  shut down picture. He's the guy I I would bet that
• 2:47:40
  the Team USA could be Dominican Republic because they're
• 2:47:43
  pitching. If they can hit but team Japan,
• 2:47:46
  if they match up against team Japan that's scary who they,
• 2:47:49
  they're kind of guessing who's gonna be the pitches so crazy.
• 2:47:52
  Crazy. Crazy crazy.
• 2:47:53
  Yeah. And just a matter of time with
• 2:47:55
  the Dominican Republic, like them, getting the pitching.
• 2:47:57
  Finally, like if they have just as good of an offence, if not
• 2:48:00
  better than the US does, the way they played so far and they're
• 2:48:03
  capable enough to make it work, they can get either bail or
• 2:48:06
  Severino or one of these other random pictures to break out,
• 2:48:08
  but they'll be definitely right there.
• 2:48:10
  It's kind of bothers me that schools, not, you know, get if
• 2:48:14
  the final is there don't, don't you want to be the pitcher in
• 2:48:17
  the finale? Like I, I know.
• 2:48:19
  It's an exhibition but he definitely had enough rest.
• 2:48:22
  So all about money around, it's all about money.
• 2:48:24
  Detroit is going to pay him a load or somebody's gonna be
• 2:48:26
  paying them a load of money after the strike and he'll be, I
• 2:48:31
  think 29 if there's a strike here, he's 27 right now 28,
• 2:48:35
  he'll be 29 30 when he gets that big long term contract even if
• 2:48:39
  he misses a year because it might be a long strike.
• 2:48:41
  You're talking about 500 million dollars and this guy doesn't
• 2:48:45
  want to throw his arm out for anything, unless it's a regular
• 2:48:48
  season game and Detroit is probably telling, we want you
• 2:48:52
  back, we want you getting ready for the season.
• 2:48:53
  We're more worried about the season then you winning a WBC
• 2:48:57
  gold medal. Let me absolutely nothing.
• 2:48:58
  So it would be his second Tommy John if he had one, you know
• 2:49:02
  because he had one in college in 2016 so right and Schoolboy and
• 2:49:07
  then he had a flexor tendon issue in 22.
• 2:49:09
  So he's he's had some issues over the years so I it does make
• 2:49:15
  sense to pull him. It's just maybe maybe there's a
• 2:49:19
  Time of the year for this tournament.
• 2:49:20
  Then I just I just wish you could see like the guys compete
• 2:49:24
  in a similar way to the Olympics.
• 2:49:26
  Where, you know, it's like they're just going all out.
• 2:49:28
  We just saw it with awesome. They should have moved the
• 2:49:31
  tournament into the middle of the season.
• 2:49:33
  That's what I would have done. This would have been the
• 2:49:36
  All-Star break just like the Olympics.
• 2:49:38
  You give them two weeks to perform and compete.
• 2:49:43
  They're at a top level. Why do we want to watch an
• 2:49:46
  All-Star Game? Nobody cares about the All-Star
• 2:49:48
  Game. Nobody cares about the Home, Run
• 2:49:49
  Derby and the celebrity game. I think everybody would love to
• 2:49:53
  watch the WBC during the break and then it gives the players to
• 2:49:57
  weeks to relax the players that want to play in the tournament.
• 2:50:00
  They go and play in this, this great big WBC tournament.
• 2:50:03
  That would have been more interesting than this garbage
• 2:50:06
  that they have for an All-Star game.
• 2:50:08
  So that's my opinion. I would have stayed far far away
• 2:50:12
  from before the season starts because the you're not getting
• 2:50:16
  the best out of these players. You really not the Honestly the
• 2:50:19
  only player that's looked really, really good in this
• 2:50:21
  tournament for Team. USA is Aaron judge.
• 2:50:23
  He's the only he has two home runs.
• 2:50:25
  He's the only one that looks like at a top level.
• 2:50:29
  He's played well Cal Raleigh hasn't played well in this
• 2:50:32
  tournament, he really hasn't. None of them hit.
• 2:50:35
  Their was, they're not, they're not in there in the swing of
• 2:50:38
  their, you know, the season they they're still getting their
• 2:50:41
  timing down, schwarber's played well, He's looked pretty good.
• 2:50:46
  He's I think he's got one home run and he's looked pretty good
• 2:50:49
  and he's hit a couple of singles and doubles.
• 2:50:51
  So I would say Shore. But a lot of these guys are not
• 2:50:54
  hidden. They're not, they're walking a
• 2:50:56
  lot, they're walking a bunch, but they're leaving so many guys
• 2:50:59
  on base. It reminds me of the Yankees.
• 2:51:02
  It reminds me of the Yankees. They got a bunch of power
• 2:51:05
  hitters that can't get these guys and knock these guys in.
• 2:51:07
  So it it's a big problem and if they expect to beat the
• 2:51:12
  Dominican Republic or team Japan, they're gonna have to
• 2:51:15
  figure it out because they cannot go into these games where
• 2:51:18
  the games are closed and you it's one swing of the back.
• 2:51:21
  You have guys like, you know, Soto or or any of these guys,
• 2:51:26
  all the guys Guerrero, all the guys on that team on that
• 2:51:29
  roster. The middle of that line of his
• 2:51:31
  dangerous. And all it takes is one swing.
• 2:51:34
  When I first and second and you're up by one and the game's
• 2:51:37
  over Completely over especially when you're not hit the balls.
• 2:51:41
  So we'll see what happens. All right, when we come back,
• 2:51:44
  ladies and gentlemen, we have let's parlay, we have Concrete
• 2:51:48
  Jungle dial it up. But first our Sports minute with
• 2:51:52
  the one we call fish. It is is the Java and the mouth
• 2:51:57
  Sportsman is. All right guys, Aaron Fishman
• 2:52:01
  here with your Sportsman, a couple more stories left tonight
• 2:52:04
  before we go through the rest of the scores.
• 2:52:06
  Cincinnati Reds. Ace hunter green has been shut
• 2:52:10
  down by the team and underwent arthroscopic surgery.
• 2:52:12
  I was pitching elbow to remove bone chips and loose bodies that
• 2:52:15
  have caused 100 plus mile an hour hurler pain.
• 2:52:18
  This preseason green is expected to be out until July recovering
• 2:52:21
  from the surgical procedure after leaving a start last
• 2:52:24
  Wednesday with elbow stiffness after Imaging in consultation
• 2:52:28
  with Dr. Neil a trash future Hall of Fame coach, Terry
• 2:52:32
  Francona spoke about the loss of the young star arm, we will miss
• 2:52:37
  him. There's no getting around that.
• 2:52:38
  I don't see anyone looking like they're feeling, sorry for
• 2:52:41
  themselves. This is just the way the game is
• 2:52:43
  for pitchers. After two stints in the ILS
• 2:52:45
  season which limited greens at throwing only 1002, thirds
• 2:52:48
  Innings, green worked on his conditioning.
• 2:52:51
  This offseason only to have to miss around half of the season.
• 2:52:55
  With this new elbow issue green, led the league last year with an
• 2:52:58
  average fastball velocity of 99.5 miles an hour for pitchers
• 2:53:03
  to grew at least 1250 pitches and had the second most 100 plus
• 2:53:06
  mile an hour pitches in the entire league with 296 only
• 2:53:10
  behind closer. Mason Miller who had 422 without
• 2:53:15
  green. The reds are pivoting to fellow
• 2:53:17
  youngster. Andrew Abbott to start opening
• 2:53:19
  day as the Reds. Hope they can figure out the
• 2:53:20
  right way to get this absurdly talented arm, right?
• 2:53:24
  As without him, they are not nearly as scary, a team to face
• 2:53:28
  some postseason play. If they can weather the storm in
• 2:53:30
  the first half of the Season without him just to get there.
• 2:53:33
  And as we approach the 2026 NFL draft, there's some interesting
• 2:53:37
  news about one of the more higher profile receivers that
• 2:53:41
  will be entering the draft. Alabama's.
• 2:53:43
  Number one, receiver will now be wearing number one next season
• 2:53:46
  and we'll have a different name on the back of his jersey.
• 2:53:48
  Ryan Williams will now be going by Ryan Coleman William as As
• 2:53:55
  well as changing, his jersey number from number two.
• 2:53:56
  Number one, number one was available as last year's number
• 2:53:59
  one, Isaiah Horton transferred. The Texas A&M in January Coleman
• 2:54:03
  Williams will likely be one of the most coveted receivers next
• 2:54:05
  year's class where he will be one of the youngest players
• 2:54:08
  turning 21 in early. February after his Junior season
• 2:54:11
  in his two seasons with the Crimson Tide, 2024 is fourth
• 2:54:15
  ranked overall High School Prospect has been able to live
• 2:54:17
  up to most of the height with 150054 receiving yards in 12,
• 2:54:21
  touchdowns expectations will be higher for next year in
• 2:54:24
  production will likely need to take a major leap for now.
• 2:54:27
  Coleman Williams to be the top. Receiver taken in 2027 with
• 2:54:30
  Ohio. State's Jeremiah Smith, who's
• 2:54:32
  the leader in the clubhouse for top receiver in the draft and
• 2:54:35
  probably all of college football next year.
• 2:54:36
  But perhaps, with the new number new name, new quarterback and
• 2:54:40
  more experience. We will see a level up player
• 2:54:42
  who is ready to make a major name for himself and make
• 2:54:45
  himself in a lucky NFL team. A lot of money guys, we are

  been great. He always is great.
• 2:56:18
  Gives us some great take on the NHL, what we expect when it
• 2:56:22
  comes to the playoffs, some of the players that we talked about
• 2:56:25
  Matthew Schaefer, nothing but High.
• 2:56:27
  Praise from him and he stuck up for Chris Curry, I don't get it.
• 2:56:32
  He must have some kind of bargaining agreement with the
• 2:56:36
  New York Rangers because he made sure to say that the Rangers are
• 2:56:40
  not far off. They can actually be a playoff
• 2:56:42
  team next year. If they make one or two really
• 2:56:44
  good moves in the off-season, or maybe one of these young guys
• 2:56:46
  like green tree or whatever the hell, his name is.
• 2:56:49
  It turns out to be a star player as he was a top prospect for the
• 2:56:53
  LA Kings. I didn't even know who he was.
• 2:56:55
  So I just hope for the Rangers sake.
• 2:56:58
  He turns into better a better player than a lot of people
• 2:57:01
  think. As a Ranger fans you you would
• 2:57:04
  hope he was a top six type of player.
• 2:57:06
  Not a top prospect who honestly I didn't even hear that he was
• 2:57:11
  one of their top the he was their number one Prospect, I
• 2:57:13
  didn't hear that. I heard he was like maybe a six
• 2:57:17
  or seventh best Prospect from the LA Kings.
• 2:57:20
  But and I I did not know. Gay Perot is is Yannick poros
• 2:57:26
  son? I had no idea attic Pearl.
• 2:57:29
  I used to route for I I watched him play from Montreal, the
• 2:57:32
  Canadian Had no idea. But I knew he was from core
• 2:57:35
  back. So when he said he was American,
• 2:57:36
  I said he might have might have lived in America most of his
• 2:57:40
  life, but he is a Canadian born player.
• 2:57:42
  So I probably has a better opportunity playing for Team
• 2:57:46
  USA, Hockey. That's just my opinion with all
• 2:57:48
  the talent that they have. Anyways, we call this, let's
• 2:57:51
  parlay Hard. Hey, time for, let's go.
• 2:58:03
  All right, so I was standing, I had to sit a little bit.
• 2:58:08
  My feet are killing me. I mean, it for, for two and a
• 2:58:11
  half hours standing for a show, that's a lot.
• 2:58:13
  But I, it's definitely a first time to ever do that.
• 2:58:17
  I'll do that for some of the shows but my camera is a little
• 2:58:21
  slow tonight where I got a new computer coming over the next
• 2:58:25
  couple of days and we'll be ready to roll for Monday's show
• 2:58:29
  but we got two very special guests.
• 2:58:32
  One guy that doesn't need an Applause because his son called
• 2:58:35
  me Grandpa Reno Johnny and worldwide West, another another
• 2:58:41
  dad. Well his son never called me
• 2:58:43
  grandpa so I love his son a little bit more.
• 2:58:45
  Well, yes, son hasn't seen me that much but I that was Crazy.
• 2:58:53
  Is that Grandpa was like what? Yeah.
• 2:58:56
  All right, we yeah man. He talks to Grandpa Grandpa
• 2:58:59
  Grandma. A lot when they're okay, they
• 2:59:01
  live in town. They see him, he just assumed
• 2:59:03
  everybody who talked to on the computer or phone is grandma or
• 2:59:06
  Grandpa. Okay, that's it.
• 2:59:07
  All right. I'm not gonna blame your song
• 2:59:09
  for that. You probably thought you were
• 2:59:10
  talking your dad but I when I look at myself, my girlfriend
• 2:59:14
  was listening to that take and she's like, grandpa.
• 2:59:16
  That was the first time I ever heard that.
• 2:59:18
  But, Hey, listen. I, I guess I'm getting up there
• 2:59:21
  and I'm old. I mean, I'm the same age as
• 2:59:24
  West. Me and Wes are, like, I think
• 2:59:26
  West is like a year older than me.
• 2:59:27
  We're getting up there in age, we're getting old.
• 2:59:30
  I mean, West became a father, what?
• 2:59:32
  Two, three years ago and I'm still not a dad.
• 2:59:34
  So I'm I, I'm waiting for something to pop out soon and
• 2:59:38
  then play Daddy Daycare. I mean, Brittany doesn't want to
• 2:59:42
  kid anytime soon, but I told him, what am I going to be 60
• 2:59:45
  years old running? After my 10 year, old son, and I
• 2:59:48
  was 10 year old daughter. All right.
• 2:59:51
  That would be horrible anyways. So this is how it works.
• 2:59:55
  Ladies and gentlemen, if you don't know this game or you
• 2:59:57
  don't know how let's parlay works.
• 2:59:59
  These two guys are some of the best handicappers in the
• 3:00:03
  country. I mean, some of the best if you
• 3:00:05
  listen to moneyline Mania on the weekend crunch, they're at
• 3:00:10
  almost 84% so far this year. I mean, it's ridiculous.
• 3:00:15
  It's so much better than Vegas and you guys can win actually
• 3:00:19
  win money if you listen to their takes and their picks.
• 3:00:22
  So what we're gonna do is Wes and Reno Johnny, You're Gonna
• 3:00:25
  Give You their top three picks, and their fourth pick to be
• 3:00:28
  their parlay. All right, so tonight, we're
• 3:00:30
  gonna go with Renault Johnny first Wes, second.
• 3:00:34
  Here we go. Yeah.
• 3:00:36
  I'm gonna start this off real quick.
• 3:00:37
  I am a legitimate. Not meant it.
• 3:00:42
  Is a and I don't know how much that one 59 and a half.
• 3:00:57
  I'm gonna take this game over. They played twice this year.
• 3:01:00
  Both times, they hit at least one 61 Both games were kind of
• 3:01:05
  dominated early by Florida the second game, Kentucky closed,
• 3:01:10
  the Gap to kind of to stay within that number.
• 3:01:13
  They were within double digits. Both times.
• 3:01:15
  I like the pace of this game Florida's.
• 3:01:18
  Got the 24th fastest, adjusted efficiency of pace.
• 3:01:21
  One thing I like about tournament games.
• 3:01:23
  Specially, when you have a team like, Kentucky, who I think is
• 3:01:26
  in, but they're kind of in that flexible spot.
• 3:01:29
  Maybe look, they're gonna continue playing, you're gonna
• 3:01:31
  get a lot, you know, you're gonna see a teams when you're
• 3:01:34
  looking at totals a lot of times and March Madness overs are good
• 3:01:37
  because it's your team down. 12 will start falling with three
• 3:01:40
  minutes to go in the game, they want to extend that game.
• 3:01:43
  So, I've seen I've been in spots where I need to 40 points and
• 3:01:47
  they scored 45 and that's two and a half minutes because they
• 3:01:50
  just, they're making shots are falling those games, get
• 3:01:54
  extended. I think, once 60's, I was still
• 3:01:56
  here for, they did it both times in a situation where they
• 3:01:59
  weren't gonna be following down 12 with 3 minutes to go again.
• 3:02:03
  So I think It's a good Pace game.
• 3:02:05
  A lot of points. Both times already.
• 3:02:07
  I think he's another another opportunity.
• 3:02:09
  The only downside in caution for this game is early start time.
• 3:02:12
  It's about noon and those games kind of get off to the Rockies
• 3:02:16
  start if he points but I like that over 159 and a half, all
• 3:02:20
  right. What is your number one?
• 3:02:23
  I'm gonna start off with the game that probably nobody's
• 3:02:26
  interested in, but I really like the line and I've watched this
• 3:02:29
  team, I've been on them a couple times throughout the year and I
• 3:02:32
  one of their players is really, I think he's, he's got a good
• 3:02:36
  MBA future ahead of him. I'm taking the Bonnies, I don't
• 3:02:41
  see anything about Dayton that deserves trust with what is now,
• 3:02:44
  a 7-point spread. But but Saint Bonaventure and a
• 3:02:48
  player to watch for is is Frank Mitchell?
• 3:02:50
  He's six, eight, he's averaging 16 points and 10 rebounds a
• 3:02:56
  game. That's a very big deal
• 3:02:58
  especially in a school like that that is is not putting up a ton
• 3:03:02
  of points. I think he's Canadian born.
• 3:03:04
  So, if you want to, if you want to look at SGA and, you know,
• 3:03:09
  some of that Canadian lineage. But, but I believe that the
• 3:03:13
  Bonnies have a shot of outright winning this game.
• 3:03:15
  I think that the only reason that there's there's line
• 3:03:18
  movement and money on on Davidson, or I'm sorry, is it
• 3:03:22
  Dayton? Is just because of name
• 3:03:25
  recognition. I like the Bonnie's here to
• 3:03:27
  cover. Possibly went out.
• 3:03:27
  Right? Frank Mitchell keep an eye on
• 3:03:29
  him Reno Johnny give us a number two.
• 3:03:32
  Yes. My number two is is definitely a
• 3:03:35
  game that nobody in the country is gonna be on I will say that I
• 3:03:38
  am a swac goat. They're calling me now.
• 3:03:41
  I think I'm 5-0 in their conference tournament.
• 3:03:43
  We're gonna stick with the slack or out, you know side note.
• 3:03:47
  I was wondering how many division one teams have I
• 3:03:49
  actually placed money on. I think I'm the only handicapper
• 3:03:53
  that is legitimately placed money on at least every team
• 3:03:55
  wants not this year. But in my hit my lifetime we bet
• 3:03:59
  on slack betting them again tomorrow.
• 3:04:00
  Give me Alabama A&M. I think what they did today
• 3:04:04
  against Texas Southern they were down most of that game.
• 3:04:06
  They had they they had a close a good second half middle second
• 3:04:09
  half that they kind of took the lead they finally and then they
• 3:04:13
  give it back they go to overtime.
• 3:04:14
  I think this and they dominated over time.
• 3:04:16
  I think this is a good situation.
• 3:04:17
  They took down his Texas Southern team that led by Johnny
• 3:04:20
  Jones tons of experience in March.
• 3:04:22
  They typically are those 15 and 17 tournament teams.
• 3:04:26
  They did good job today. It was standing the storm.
• 3:04:28
  I think Prairie views kind of been that Cinderella.
• 3:04:31
  They're a bottom Seen in that tournament.
• 3:04:33
  They want a couple games. They took down the number one
• 3:04:35
  seed. I do think that was them and the
• 3:04:37
  win this game right now. You can get him a plus 100 100
• 3:04:41
  105 depending on on where you're at, but that's even money.
• 3:04:44
  I think they win the game out right tomorrow.
• 3:04:46
  Wes, give us your number two, So fun fact you guys might not know
• 3:04:51
  about me, but when it comes to college basketball, there's like
• 3:04:55
  two or three teams that I just like you can call my teams.
• 3:04:58
  I you throw High estate out the window.
• 3:05:00
  You're not here for the Buckeyes in anything, but, you know, they
• 3:05:03
  don't really have a college basketball program.
• 3:05:05
  But but my favorite college team, over the last five years,
• 3:05:08
  has been Seton Hall, believe it or not.
• 3:05:10
  I love this. Seton Hall team, they make other
• 3:05:14
  teams play bad. There's some familiarity against
• 3:05:17
  this against this Saint John's team.
• 3:05:19
  Seton Hall is holding teams under 65 points or they held
• 3:05:24
  Saint John's 65 points. Their their top 15.
• 3:05:27
  In almost every category defensively.
• 3:05:29
  They don't put up a ton of points or stats because they
• 3:05:32
  they just don't need to. I, I like them to cover this
• 3:05:37
  spread, the number is is silly. It's seven and a half.
• 3:05:41
  You can get it at 8. If you let it go a little bit
• 3:05:43
  longer, you might even catch 8 and a half.
• 3:05:47
  I just, and again, with Seton Hall, Just like I mentioned with
• 3:05:51
  the Bonnie's. One of my favorite players in
• 3:05:54
  the entire country is AJ Stanton McRae.
• 3:05:56
  I think he's another one that he's not one of the big names
• 3:06:00
  but he's gonna find his way on an MBA roster.
• 3:06:02
  He's a two-way player that that really is one of the players is
• 3:06:06
  just the backbone of this defense, but I think that that
• 3:06:09
  Saint John's coming off of a little bit bigger win and Seton
• 3:06:13
  Hall is just kind of doing what they do and keeping the game
• 3:06:14
  slowly defense Reno Johnny. Give us your number three yes,
• 3:06:19
  similar to West. I'm actually I got a few team
• 3:06:21
  calls basketball 365 teams. I don't think there's any shame
• 3:06:25
  in the game by chance for a couple of special when you like
• 3:06:27
  those small Schools. They're probably not going to
• 3:06:29
  Championship but I'm actually a fan of this next game.
• 3:06:32
  So I gotta preface that I am an actual fan of this team, but I
• 3:06:35
  think this team's got great value.
• 3:06:37
  That's gonna be Nevada. I stayed in Nevada.
• 3:06:39
  Actually in the first round. I plus 20, I thought, I thought
• 3:06:42
  that Air Force lost about 15 a couple times.
• 3:06:44
  He can hang around. They didn't they all 39 and 10
• 3:06:46
  in the first half again was never in question.
• 3:06:49
  From early down six to GCU a team.
• 3:06:54
  That's a tournament tested. They've been they've been
• 3:06:56
  they've won their conference tournament last two years.
• 3:06:58
  So the new conference for them. Nevada was still the storm.
• 3:07:01
  I think the game was choppy, which really hurt GCU is a lot
• 3:07:05
  of families in that game Nevada Nevada made an attempted more
• 3:07:10
  free throws and had at any point this year hit 30 Something free
• 3:07:14
  throws on a 40 something attempts.
• 3:07:16
  It was insane. I think tomorrow is this is a
• 3:07:19
  Nevada team that is on the bubble in terms of they got when
• 3:07:22
  they got a way to make turning. I think it's crazy to me because
• 3:07:24
  San Diego State on the bubble you talked states on the bubble
• 3:07:27
  New Mexico is on the bubble Boise was on the bubble and that
• 3:07:31
  is everything one of those seats.
• 3:07:32
  So I have no idea how Nevada has not been on the vocal
• 3:07:35
  conversation. They've are 20 plus winner 11
• 3:07:37
  losses are catching 6 points tomorrow.
• 3:07:40
  I do think they can win the game.
• 3:07:42
  I'm gonna cover myself with the points.
• 3:07:44
  I'm gonna Sprint on the money line.
• 3:07:45
  They have enough for him behind price camper and Vaughn.
• 3:07:49
  Terrific in this tournament. I think they can withstand the
• 3:07:52
  storm and the Utah State does travel.
• 3:07:55
  Well, that's what they're going to have to kind of withstand
• 3:07:57
  there. I think Nevada hangs around I
• 3:07:59
  think Nevada for when this conference which is something
• 3:08:01
  that we probably were talking about the beginning of the year.
• 3:08:04
  All right, Wes give us your number three. so, I'm wearing
• 3:08:09
  the shirt. This is my family, they're all,
• 3:08:11
  you know, hey, you alma mater. It's the local team but truth be
• 3:08:15
  told, I am a Houston fan, the last few years I like the way
• 3:08:18
  that they play. I just like defensive teams and
• 3:08:21
  but there is something wrong with this Houston.
• 3:08:23
  Cougars team like something is wrong.
• 3:08:25
  Kansas. We know what their issues are,
• 3:08:27
  we? I is DP gonna play.
• 3:08:29
  Is he gonna, is he gonna look like a teammate when he plays?
• 3:08:32
  Is he going to take the threes when they should be giving the
• 3:08:35
  3-point opportunities to Melvin Jr?
• 3:08:37
  Like what version of the jokes? Are we going to get?
• 3:08:40
  Because they kind of look better.
• 3:08:41
  When DP doesn't play young kid, I bill self is one of the best
• 3:08:46
  coaches in the country. But the reason I'm taking
• 3:08:49
  Jayhawks and we don't know what the point spread is I'm taking
• 3:08:52
  Jayhawks money line and I think it's going to be some plus
• 3:08:54
  money. This used to Cougar team is
• 3:08:56
  broken, they're one of the best defensive teams in the country
• 3:08:58
  BYU. You should have not even been in
• 3:09:01
  this game and BYU was ahead by as much as six.
• 3:09:04
  I was physically at that game tonight and, and watching it
• 3:09:07
  feeling Stupid, telling people pregame that Houston is, one of
• 3:09:12
  the most dangerous teams in the country.
• 3:09:13
  Like, they just Houston falls into really weird spots with The
• 3:09:17
  Jayhawks. We know what the issues are and
• 3:09:19
  it's just it's just teen continuity, if they get DP going
• 3:09:23
  as a part of the team and not as, as his own entrepreneur, it
• 3:09:28
  Melvin Council Junior also gets opportunities.
• 3:09:30
  This is a Jayhawk team that can play with anybody in the
• 3:09:33
  country, but the way that Houston is playing right now,
• 3:09:35
  they will not make it past tomorrow.
• 3:09:36
  All right Reno Johnny give us your final pick of the night
• 3:09:42
  Final pick of the night is actually going to be a game that
• 3:09:45
  starts in about an hour and a half and it's going to be UC
• 3:09:49
  Davis over Fullerton. A fun fact, I actually was part
• 3:09:54
  of a staff that coached a player on Fullerton, a couple years ago
• 3:09:57
  over here at the local high school.
• 3:09:59
  So I kind of have a little bit there but I'm not going to be on
• 3:10:03
  that side. I think you see Davis is the the
• 3:10:05
  play here. They're kind of catching a
• 3:10:07
  little bit of value, what I understand.
• 3:10:08
  I don't think this bullshit. First Fullerton offense is going
• 3:10:12
  to be able to contain or contend against his, UC Davis defense, I
• 3:10:17
  think the metrics on UC Davis, actually favor.
• 3:10:20
  This in the matchup, I have them in more like a 3-point favorite.
• 3:10:23
  So you're gonna catch a lot of value there.
• 3:10:24
  I think you see Davis wins the game.
• 3:10:26
  What I'm gonna do though, is gonna lay the money line, think
• 3:10:30
  that minus 1056 a little bit of movement there.
• 3:10:34
  So, I'm just gonna be on the money line.
• 3:10:36
  Not worry about the modest, one or minus one and a half.
• 3:10:38
  Give me the UC Davis win the game against.
• 3:10:42
  Fullerton and move on. All right, Wes give Your final
• 3:10:47
  pick of the knights. This this game is a total
• 3:10:51
  mismatch. I don't know why 91% of the
• 3:10:54
  people involved in this game are taking the points.
• 3:10:57
  It makes no sense to me at all. I am laying it's now eight and a
• 3:11:02
  half. I was happy to lay nine and a
• 3:11:03
  half and I'll lay as many as 10 and a half.
• 3:11:05
  Illinois is, it is going to be a complete SF against the Badgers.
• 3:11:10
  Does anybody know what an SF is? Can I can I say, do you know,
• 3:11:14
  it's gonna be a skull Fox. I it Illinois is one of the
• 3:11:19
  tallest teams in the country. They got a seven one Center.
• 3:11:23
  They get a 69 power forward. Illinois, gets hot like nobody
• 3:11:28
  else in the country. The Badgers, do not belong on
• 3:11:31
  the court. In this game, this is I preached
• 3:11:36
  unit management. If ever, there was a time to put
• 3:11:39
  double Bitcoin on a game, it would be laying the points here
• 3:11:42
  on the fighting a line. I believe that it is going to be
• 3:11:45
  a real SF tomorrow and if you, if you truly need an
• 3:11:50
  explanation, you don't want to watch basketball.
• 3:11:52
  Well, we all know worldwide West is all about the Bitcoin.
• 3:11:57
  So yeah, I I like that big was, I actually don't know why.
• 3:12:03
  I mean, I understand they'd be Perdue, but I look at this
• 3:12:06
  Wisconsin team like they shouldn't be right in my
• 3:12:09
  opinion. One quick question before I do
• 3:12:11
  have a question for everybody. Does Miami Ohio.
• 3:12:14
  Do they get in? Yes.
• 3:12:15
  Yes. Yeah, yeah, I I think so too.
• 3:12:20
  But apparently you can get you can make money if you bet on
• 3:12:23
  them to make tournament. Because there's only a 38%
• 3:12:25
  chance, 37% chance that they do make the field.
• 3:12:27
  They needed that loss. I believe that they needed that
• 3:12:31
  loss, they needed that pressure gone and I think they could be a
• 3:12:35
  sweet, 16 team, and I think that probably be a five or succeed.
• 3:12:38
  Yeah, I think I know. I think they're gonna do that.
• 3:12:44
  Yeah, like, they're gonna they're gonna, they're gonna
• 3:12:46
  fuck him because they're gonna do is put them in a nine.
• 3:12:48
  If they win that game, they're going to play at number one
• 3:12:51
  team. One number one team.
• 3:12:52
  I think they're getting fucked. I think 31 and I don't care who
• 3:12:55
  you are, right? Because you can say anything
• 3:12:57
  about the strength of schedule. Nobody else in the back one, 31
• 3:12:59
  and no, nobody else on 31 now. Like so I don't care about that
• 3:13:03
  because it's hard to do. Mmm.
• 3:13:06
  Well there's I have the same question about like, Santa Clara
• 3:13:10
  and Saint. Mary's Saint Mary's.
• 3:13:12
  One of the top defensive teams in the country.
• 3:13:14
  They beat in Gonzaga, but they didn't make it to the
• 3:13:17
  championship of their tournament.
• 3:13:18
  In Santa Clara beat him Santa Clara's On ranked their their
• 3:13:21
  you know kind of mid on their their record.
• 3:13:24
  There's there's all kinds of weird ones out there, like,
• 3:13:28
  Ohio, State's gonna make it in and I don't, I on paper Miami.
• 3:13:33
  Ohio is better. Yeah, I think they married is
• 3:13:36
  in. And in my opinion, say marriage
• 3:13:38
  and they, they're always, they always a body of work.
• 3:13:42
  When there's some years like they had to win the tournament,
• 3:13:44
  but a body of work, you're taking your time begins as an
• 3:13:47
  automatic in, even without that win, right?
• 3:13:49
  Even if the Senate thread one, your tongue gets automatically
• 3:13:52
  in. Watching argue that same Mary,
• 3:13:54
  he's trying to schedule maybe not as strong but they're as
• 3:13:57
  good of a team as Gonzaga, they've already beat him twice.
• 3:14:00
  So no, they lost in a Clara. I hope they get that.
• 3:14:06
  Is that the best one to have, right?
• 3:14:07
  Is that one same marriage when they didn't begin zaga?
• 3:14:11
  This year like that one thing was Santa Clara is, you can't
• 3:14:14
  match up any of their wins outside of the same as in the
• 3:14:17
  tournament. Same marriage had already put
• 3:14:19
  together that body of work. That's where it kind of gets
• 3:14:22
  tricky. I think I honestly both should
• 3:14:24
  be in. If you gotta make pick one or
• 3:14:27
  the other, you gotta take. I think same marries over the
• 3:14:29
  course of the Year. Same errors is the better team.
• 3:14:31
  They're, they were the right team, much of the year they've
• 3:14:34
  already begins at they lost by six on the road to Gonzaga, they
• 3:14:39
  dominated at home against and I just thought they're the better
• 3:14:42
  team and I think that's what's gonna hurt the mine, Ohio State.
• 3:14:46
  The fact that they're only 37% chance to make tournament is
• 3:14:49
  wild to me. Clemson's another one.
• 3:14:52
  What is Clemson have to do to get in?
• 3:14:53
  I think that they're going to be North Carolina here in a few
• 3:14:56
  minutes. There a favor, are I haven't
• 3:15:00
  seen the score but it's tied. It.
• 3:15:04
  So what is Clemson need to do? Because they were ranked, they
• 3:15:07
  were ranked at one point and they couldn't hold it together a
• 3:15:10
  c c is competitive. It's, I don't know, I think you
• 3:15:14
  have a team going to feed it and not put him in.
• 3:15:16
  I think they're I think I think Clemson's in and they're up
• 3:15:19
  right now. Its first half.
• 3:15:20
  I think, North Carolina is in based on body of work.
• 3:15:24
  But I also the North Carolina is going to be an early out because
• 3:15:26
  they lost the best player already.
• 3:15:28
  So they're in because of their name but they suck.
• 3:15:31
  They're not good. And to be honest, I actually
• 3:15:34
  liked it. If they had their best player, I
• 3:15:36
  think they're sweet. They're in Elite 180 overlooked
• 3:15:40
  and overvalued and undervalued. So but without their best
• 3:15:43
  player, they're not they're gonna make the tournament
• 3:15:45
  because their name, they've already had put together the
• 3:15:47
  season. They're going to be an early
• 3:15:48
  out, which is kind of soaks, but then Duke lost a great player
• 3:15:52
  for them. So there's been a lot of
• 3:15:54
  injuries here coming into the tournament, so I think we're
• 3:15:56
  going to get a lot of Cinderella's or opportunities to
• 3:15:59
  get some Cinderella's. All right, boys.
• 3:16:00
  Peter we really appreciate you guys.
• 3:16:03
  Talk to you guys. Later, we got to move on.
• 3:16:05
  We got a couple more segments to stick up but we love you guys
• 3:16:07
  and look, look, we got the skull function over there for the old
• 3:16:12
  western. But thanks guys, we really
• 3:16:15
  appreciate the time. Let's parlay there on every
• 3:16:18
  single Thursday, and they give us their top picks and they're
• 3:16:21
  always Sensational. So thank you to them.
• 3:16:23
  All right, we call this concrete, jungle carousel. up,
• 3:16:30
  we got fun and games, you know, where you I'm trying to put
• 3:16:36
  Tiger Bomb on this jungle's nuts to the concrete jungle carousel.
• 3:16:48
  All right, are we ready for concrete jungle Carousel?
• 3:16:52
  Well, ladies and gentlemen, we're gonna get into New York
• 3:16:56
  Sports. Let's get it fish.
• 3:16:57
  All right, starting in basketball gonna be quick
• 3:17:00
  tonight. Nick's drop back to back games
• 3:17:03
  to the Clippers and Lakers first was installed, Lakers won, ten,
• 3:17:07
  ninety, seven with that LeBron, then to the Clippers in a closer
• 3:17:10
  game, 126 18, the next night, and of course, they had a nice
• 3:17:16
  little rebound game against the Jazz Jordan Clarkson who played
• 3:17:21
  there, a long time, hadn't played in the wild.
• 3:17:23
  He's been out of the rotation, they let him have a moment.
• 3:17:26
  He got 27 points off the bench in that game in the win, Mike
• 3:17:30
  Brown. The big thing that they're
• 3:17:32
  talking about right now is Mitchell.
• 3:17:33
  Robinson Mitchell, Robinson's load management.
• 3:17:35
  They're keeping him at 22 minutes a game.
• 3:17:38
  But Mike Brown is going to start to try to increase his playing
• 3:17:41
  time even though he's not gonna start him and they need to get
• 3:17:45
  Karl. Anthony towns going, it's just
• 3:17:47
  the story. Season.
• 3:17:48
  If his shooting percentages are down, as much as they are,
• 3:17:51
  they're losing a few points. They would like to see those
• 3:17:54
  percentages, go back up for the playoffs.
• 3:17:56
  Here's the facts, guys, I know everybody looks at numbers and
• 3:18:00
  statistics when Karl Anthony towns and Mitchell Robinson is
• 3:18:02
  on the court together. They're not that good, but what
• 3:18:06
  I could say about Mitchell Robinson is he does everything
• 3:18:09
  that Karl, Anthony towns doesn't do and that's rebound.
• 3:18:12
  He's a great rebounder block and protect the whole and and that's
• 3:18:17
  what you need from a guy that's going to be your backbone of
• 3:18:21
  your defense. Now again I think Mike Brown
• 3:18:23
  should start to transition into that and and figure out how this
• 3:18:27
  could work spread out the offense use Karl Anthony towns
• 3:18:30
  on the outside more than the inside and let Mitchell Robinson
• 3:18:33
  control the inside but this team hasn't played well.
• 3:18:37
  And a lot of people wearing about Michelle Bridges if he's
• 3:18:40
  going to show up in the game and and play at a high level and OJ
• 3:18:44
  and Opie disappears, offensively in games and and call.
• 3:18:47
  Any towns isn't the prolific offense of player.
• 3:18:50
  You want every single game, you need to see consistency, 25, and
• 3:18:55
  12, like he was last year, if you don't get that from Karl
• 3:18:58
  Anthony towns. Well, then you're gonna have a
• 3:19:00
  problem in the playoffs, against Detroit and the Celtics.
• 3:19:02
  So that I think is what I would like to see when McBride comes
• 3:19:07
  back. Maybe you move him in and and
• 3:19:09
  see what he can add to. Maybe a starting lineup for a
• 3:19:12
  six-man Off the Bench. It's just too much at Josh Hart
• 3:19:15
  and playing the small offense and small rotation lineup.
• 3:19:20
  It doesn't work. You've got size, use your size
• 3:19:23
  and you'll have that advantage in the playoffs against these
• 3:19:27
  Eastern Conference teams. You don't have to play Captain
• 3:19:29
  Mitchell Robinson like the whole game with each other, but you're
• 3:19:31
  gonna need to do it in some lineups to get it, acclimated
• 3:19:33
  for the playoffs. Because there's gonna be these
• 3:19:35
  teams, you should have a size advantage and I'm okay with the
• 3:19:38
  minutes limit right now. I don't care about the starting
• 3:19:40
  or not, starting label, but 22 minutes is fine increased at a
• 3:19:43
  little silky little process going with him.
• 3:19:45
  All right? And the next season is Over.
• 3:19:48
  There's nothing to talk about with them.
• 3:19:49
  Let's move on to football. Giants free agency moves.
• 3:19:54
  So we got a couple of things, the Giants got some depth, they
• 3:19:59
  brought in the safety, our Darius Washington, from the
• 3:20:02
  Ravens and fullback All Pro fullback, Patrick Ricard, 300
• 3:20:08
  pound fullback kind of old school.
• 3:20:10
  For those goal line packages, a lot of those guys are coming
• 3:20:15
  back, they bring him back, Michael McFadden, they brought
• 3:20:18
  in the Dolphins, the former Dolphins, kicker Jason Sanders.
• 3:20:21
  I was I guess they're saying right now I was gonna compete
• 3:20:25
  with Gano. Everyone assumes gonna know
• 3:20:26
  who's gone. They brought in a pretty good
• 3:20:29
  corner. I think in the slot Corner, Greg
• 3:20:32
  Newsome. but the big news and they brought in Calvin, Austin
• 3:20:36
  the third from the Steelers today, he's kind of a slot guy,
• 3:20:38
  but the big news Arrow They're bringing back evil.
• 3:20:43
  On a one year deal. I, I Which is just think they
• 3:20:48
  could fix anything. I guess, Joe shame.
• 3:20:51
  That's all I'm gonna say. Joe Shane wants to protect that
• 3:20:54
  pick and make it seem like he can figure it out or get John
• 3:20:57
  Harbaugh to figure it out and get this guy playing at a high
• 3:21:00
  level. Ricard is is a good player, a
• 3:21:03
  good fallback Newsom is is another good slot Defender.
• 3:21:07
  I so I I think they added some pieces are these game-changing
• 3:21:11
  pieces know, I know giant fans are hoping that John Harpo.
• 3:21:16
  Can get these players to play at a top level napiers comes back
• 3:21:19
  and obviously some of their players that really showed cam
• 3:21:23
  comes back and plays at high level.
• 3:21:25
  Even a lot of people worried about cam coming back from the
• 3:21:27
  injury like this. So your bedding on John Harbaugh
• 3:21:31
  to get things working on at a high level.
• 3:21:33
  I just, they couldn't do a lot. They couldn't go after these top
• 3:21:37
  players because they didn't have the money, they had to maneuver
• 3:21:40
  players and move players and make the salary's work and they
• 3:21:44
  better hope that they land on their first round pick.
• 3:21:47
  In their second and third round picks because those guys are
• 3:21:50
  going to play a big part of this team success.
• 3:21:53
  This coming year Newsome for one year, eight million.
• 3:21:55
  I think he's good when he's healthy, just never healthy.
• 3:21:56
  Washington was a scheme fit with the Ravens.
• 3:21:59
  I don't know how it'll work with all these new, like, mixed bag
• 3:22:01
  of Defense with tennis. I didn't like that move.
• 3:22:03
  Yeah, it's, it's kind of tough to tell with him.
• 3:22:05
  I like bringing back McFadden. I always thought he was good
• 3:22:07
  versatile. Guy kind of a Rover in that
• 3:22:08
  defense, Evan Neil. Let's hope we could actually do
• 3:22:11
  something, but who knows makes make that is like he's always
• 3:22:15
  around the ball. Well, there he wraps up or not
• 3:22:17
  as a different story sometimes for him.
• 3:22:19
  That's a, I hope he can fix that.
• 3:22:21
  I, if there anyone could, it's a guy, is gonna be dedicated to
• 3:22:24
  principals, like John Harbaugh. Anyway, let's get to the Jets,
• 3:22:28
  the Jets, made some noise Arrow. I they I mean I should we start
• 3:22:34
  with. Let's start with it.
• 3:22:35
  They went and grabbed Geno Smith.
• 3:22:39
  They traded a seventh back to the judge for a seventh round.
• 3:22:43
  Pick the Raiders, eat all the salary, it's a veteran.
• 3:22:46
  Minimum kind of a similar deal that the Steelers had would
• 3:22:49
  Russell Wilson a couple years ago.
• 3:22:52
  I guess he's the bridge, it's just kind of weird that the
• 3:22:55
  Jets, you know, they started with them.
• 3:22:58
  Wasn't good with them. He's kind of at the end of the
• 3:23:01
  career now it kind of missed out on the prime of a guy who
• 3:23:04
  actually had a pretty halfway decent career there for someone
• 3:23:08
  who no one really expected. Much of.
• 3:23:09
  I love the Geno, Smith move, first of all, he's a jet.
• 3:23:12
  He was drafted by the Jets in the second round.
• 3:23:14
  Didn't really accomplish what we expected him to accomplish,
• 3:23:17
  maybe because he didn't pay a guy back, 500 dollars in a bet.
• 3:23:22
  I mean, in the locker room, everybody knows the story and he
• 3:23:25
  got his job broke and then Fitzpatrick took over and pretty
• 3:23:28
  much led the Jets for two years and Geno Smith was traded and
• 3:23:31
  like go was so typical New York Jets fashion.
• 3:23:35
  I here's the thing, you know Smith didn't cost a chance,
• 3:23:39
  anything a lot of people believe Geno Smith was the best
• 3:23:41
  quarterback available in this off season from Kyla Murray and
• 3:23:44
  Kirk Cousins. So you get him for nothing for
• 3:23:46
  7th round draft pick when a lot of people thought he was going
• 3:23:49
  to Minnesota. If he if he came off waivers, he
• 3:23:52
  goes to Minnesota and the Jets have no shot at him.
• 3:23:54
  Now you look at, he's a fringe quarterback.
• 3:23:57
  You think about it this way you have them a whole season this
• 3:24:00
  year and then next year you draft your quarterback.
• 3:24:01
  You sit them behind, you know, Smith Latino Smith helped
• 3:24:04
  develop him for the first six or seven weeks.
• 3:24:06
  And then you have your quarterback.
• 3:24:08
  That's what I do. And I think that's the smart way
• 3:24:10
  of going. I think Moji is at a great
• 3:24:12
  offseason. They added right the other day.
• 3:24:14
  I add a corner a number one corner, right is the number one
• 3:24:18
  corner, you put them over there you draft the corner.
• 3:24:21
  Now, you have a one two punch. You got a good secondary.
• 3:24:23
  And yeah and Mika Fitzpatrick to Mario Davis another ex-jet who
• 3:24:29
  was drafted by Rex Ryan. It was at a sensational career
• 3:24:32
  with the Saints want a Super Bowl.
• 3:24:33
  This is this this is a successful off season so far and
• 3:24:39
  they didn't spend a lot of money.
• 3:24:40
  They really didn't spend any money.
• 3:24:42
  The Jets are flying right now. Think about it.
• 3:24:45
  They had like seven or eight pieces and spent the most money.
• 3:24:48
  They spent was a trade for a safety gave up a six or seventh
• 3:24:52
  round draft pick and pay them 40 million dollars underpaid one of
• 3:24:55
  the best safeties in the league if he A selfie think it's a good
• 3:24:58
  offseason for the Jets. Yeah, I was I was worried we
• 3:25:01
  talked about a few weeks ago with nation.
• 3:25:02
  Right getting a big contract herself, one big year because
• 3:25:04
  it's really been his only big year in the league, but it's a
• 3:25:07
  guy could play both corner and safety.
• 3:25:08
  I think you're getting a great move for just five million
• 3:25:11
  dollars. I was thinking he was gonna cost
• 3:25:12
  at least 12 for all the year. He had only getting for five is
• 3:25:15
  crazy. Good, David on Yamaha, another
• 3:25:17
  good one too. They got on the interior
• 3:25:18
  defensive line to help them out. You talk about belt in early,
• 3:25:20
  coming over from the Giants, who was a versatile guy and that
• 3:25:23
  demon. If you get somebody else, they
• 3:25:25
  pay your quarterback and he barely do anything.
• 3:25:27
  That's a very good think about it.
• 3:25:29
  They spent probably, I would say 30 million dollars this off
• 3:25:34
  season and they've got a ton of money left for next year.
• 3:25:36
  And a lot at least two or three. These guys are going to be off
• 3:25:39
  the cap next year because they only signed one year deals.
• 3:25:42
  So the Jets are flying high. They're gonna have the most
• 3:25:45
  money they'll get their quarterback next year and they
• 3:25:48
  still have Geno Smith as their starting quarterback going into
• 3:25:51
  another season in 2027. So I think the jets are in a
• 3:25:55
  very good position, Moji Darren Mochi.
• 3:25:58
  A minus all. See, all off season, I give him
• 3:26:02
  an A minus because I wanted I until they.
• 3:26:05
  And so, I see what they get in the draft.
• 3:26:07
  Then I can give him an A+, but I have a chance.
• 3:26:10
  They got two first round draft picks two second round draft
• 3:26:13
  picks. They could be flying high after
• 3:26:15
  the draft, so we got to see, it's a minus right now, it could
• 3:26:19
  be an A+ plus if he has a good draft, All right, let's get into
• 3:26:23
  some baseball right now and we've already talked WBC, but
• 3:26:28
  there's also spring training going on at the same time we
• 3:26:30
  forget about that, sometimes the Yankees.
• 3:26:33
  Well, first off, John Carlos standing hit two home runs.
• 3:26:36
  He looks really good, but the real news is the young pitching
• 3:26:39
  cam. Schlitter, looks even better
• 3:26:41
  than he did last year. They're saying that his pitches
• 3:26:44
  are moving more than they used to move with the advanced
• 3:26:46
  analytics and then they have this Carlos LaGrange Gerald
• 3:26:49
  throwing over 101. He's got like starter Talent,
• 3:26:54
  they think. But this year, he may end up
• 3:26:57
  being late in and guy. If he's gonna be throwing this
• 3:26:59
  hard, he has four scoreless innings in his last starler had
• 3:27:05
  five strikeouts on first 25 pitches six overall on three and
• 3:27:10
  two thirds, pretty awesome to see what they have.
• 3:27:13
  And on the Mets, side of things, they're going to retire, Carlos
• 3:27:16
  beltran's. Jersey on May 30th should have
• 3:27:20
  done that time ago, by the way. Jonathan's going to AAA which I
• 3:27:25
  don't kind of figured. And then they're gonna go with a
• 3:27:29
  six-man rotation, at least until they is one of them gets hurt,
• 3:27:32
  McClain, minaya clay, Holmes Peterson senga after the
• 3:27:37
  addition of Freddy Peralta, all right, so let's go to the
• 3:27:41
  Yankees. First, we know which littler is
• 3:27:43
  gonna be, he is a one or two in the future for the Yankees.
• 3:27:48
  This Rodriguez kid is going to be called up sometime this year
• 3:27:53
  as well. I mean the Yankees have A good
• 3:27:56
  nucleus of young pitching that are coming up, which a lot of
• 3:28:00
  people didn't think the Yankees had Spencer, Jones looks good.
• 3:28:03
  I mean, everything looks good Lombardi looks good.
• 3:28:05
  The young Stars, the young players that a lot of people
• 3:28:09
  think that the Yankees gonna build around the Yankees have a
• 3:28:12
  future, they really do. And that's as far as the Mexican
• 3:28:15
  concern, well, Tongue. We knew was going to be sent
• 3:28:20
  that was its tongue, right? He was going to be sent down but
• 3:28:23
  I think he will be called up really, really early in the
• 3:28:28
  season. I the Mets are flying to.
• 3:28:31
  I think the Mets have some good young prospects.
• 3:28:33
  We're going to see this year. My question is is how these
• 3:28:36
  other players are going to work in this lineup.
• 3:28:38
  And who's playing first base is his baby.
• 3:28:41
  Is it Jorge? I mean, who's the guy who's the
• 3:28:44
  first baseman? You spent a lot of money.
• 3:28:46
  This offseason bringing in free agents that don't fit in those
• 3:28:50
  positions. How is it going to work?
• 3:28:52
  That's the only thing I would worry about.
• 3:28:53
  For the Mets. Are the Mets playoff team?
• 3:28:56
  Well, if the pitching holds up and when I comes back and he
• 3:28:59
  pitches like a one or two and you have McClain and then tongue
• 3:29:02
  is a part of this rotation one way or another.
• 3:29:04
  I think the Mets are going to be in a good position and by the
• 3:29:07
  way, they still have parole to who is their number one, Sol
• 3:29:09
  Peralta minaya. I mean, If Peralta is any
• 3:29:13
  anything, what he was with Milwaukee, the Mets could have a
• 3:29:16
  shutdown. Absolute number one starter with
• 3:29:18
  McClain. So yeah.
• 3:29:20
  And that's gonna be there. Yeah, there's a lot of pictures
• 3:29:22
  that are trying to figure out their roles at this point.
• 3:29:23
  That's why I still think you let tongue develop too.
• 3:29:26
  No matter what you want to still have him pitch At His Highest
• 3:29:28
  upside was surprising when they call them up, as early as they
• 3:29:30
  did last year, obviously, they went on the young pitching
• 3:29:32
  Revolution for so many guys struggled all at once, but I
• 3:29:35
  think they're doing the right thing here, I'd leave him at
• 3:29:36
  least until me June, and then call him up.
• 3:29:38
  Then, unless there's a cast off of that injuries, I agree with
• 3:29:41
  you on, baby. Like, they need his Bat in the
• 3:29:42
  lineup, but they need to do more.
• 3:29:43
  As far as the Yankees. I was saying LaGrange probably
• 3:29:46
  Cinema for most of the season of this point.
• 3:29:48
  Let him develop as a starter, might be a number two, this
• 3:29:51
  year, I would expect him to be number two until Road on comes
• 3:29:55
  back and then Cole, you know, obviously he would be the four
• 3:29:58
  and that would be the best for, you know, in all of baseball.
• 3:30:00
  Well, I can argue that already good to man.
• 3:30:04
  So who's the Dodgers fourth guy? We got ohtani and Yamamoto glass
• 3:30:09
  no glass. Now, it's now that's pretty not
• 3:30:13
  healthy this year. I don't know if he's gonna go
• 3:30:16
  for a few months so still have if it's not how I know, but the
• 3:30:20
  Yankees still have coal and yeah, you're right.
• 3:30:22
  They'll stop you too and I expect him to have a better
• 3:30:25
  season this year so it's just I think the question is, is Sasaki
• 3:30:29
  gonna be the station? Or are they gonna use him as a
• 3:30:31
  closer? He's a starter like a lady guy.
• 3:30:33
  He's a starter. They had a closer in the
• 3:30:36
  offseason and with everything. I don't think they have to worry
• 3:30:39
  about any of that. Anyway, let's get to hockey.
• 3:30:42
  So we're just gonna go through this quick, the devils are they
• 3:30:45
  still are scratching Dougie Hamilton.
• 3:30:48
  I guess they're just trying to tank for the best odds at the
• 3:30:51
  top. Pick in the draft.
• 3:30:52
  He scored 20 points in 17 games after being, benched for
• 3:30:56
  performance issues. Obviously, obviously, we're
• 3:30:59
  trying to trade them, they couldn't trade them, get they're
• 3:31:02
  still benching them, it's just weird.
• 3:31:04
  What's going on with Hamilton and obviously, he's not exactly
• 3:31:08
  the same guys, who was but 20.17 games.
• 3:31:10
  Kind of speaks for itself. Brayden Schenn gets the assist
• 3:31:14
  on the overtime goal and the comeback Victory against his
• 3:31:17
  former team, the other day. So that tied the Islanders with
• 3:31:21
  the penguins at the time for second in the Metro And the
• 3:31:24
  range you're gonna love this. Chris jury was asking for
• 3:31:28
  Vincent show check first round pick.
• 3:31:32
  Another starting player on a roster and a legitimate
• 3:31:36
  Prospect. Yeah.
• 3:31:37
  Okay. That's not gonna.
• 3:31:40
  It's unfortunate. But I again trocheck is still
• 3:31:43
  part of the organization. He'll be part of the
• 3:31:45
  organization moving forward. They're not moving him.
• 3:31:47
  He's is a backbone of that team. So I I think if you're a range
• 3:31:52
  of Fame, you're happy that Vincent trojack is still part of
• 3:31:54
  the organization. As far as the Islanders are a
• 3:31:57
  concern they gave up a lot for Shen I want and I I listen to
• 3:32:01
  camel men and he says, oh they've got some good veterans
• 3:32:03
  on this team. I want to see Shen play a big
• 3:32:05
  part on the island just success if they make the playoffs.
• 3:32:07
  He's a great playoff player. You have him for another year
• 3:32:10
  you gave up a first round a third round and a player Drew is
• 3:32:14
  a good player. So they have they have talent
• 3:32:17
  there and and the island just gave up a lot.
• 3:32:20
  Now the first round pick was from the Colorado Avalanche the
• 3:32:24
  third round pick that they're giving up was from the devils
• 3:32:26
  and and and and this and as far as Drew and drilling was an
• 3:32:30
  add-on I think for Colorado they got for the Brock Nelson deals.
• 3:32:33
  So they're all add-on players that the island just want to
• 3:32:37
  move so but you gave up a first in a third that's a lot.
• 3:32:40
  For a 34 year old guy. So that's what worries me about
• 3:32:43
  him. If he's at the tail end of his
• 3:32:45
  career. If not, he was a good addition
• 3:32:47
  as far as the devil is a concern.
• 3:32:50
  The range is a winning now, which makes no sense.
• 3:32:52
  Jerry says they're rebuilding their winning now because they
• 3:32:55
  put a first line together. That actually is putting the
• 3:32:57
  puck in the nap. And the devils are losing and
• 3:33:01
  sitting down. Dougie Hamilton who's making a
• 3:33:04
  boatload of money. He's making a lot of money for a
• 3:33:06
  defenseman sitting out. What are you gonna do with him
• 3:33:08
  next year? Are you bringing him back?
• 3:33:11
  Are you moving him in the off-season?
• 3:33:12
  And what do you think you're gonna get for him after losing
• 3:33:15
  another season, for a player that's aging.
• 3:33:17
  So I that makes no sense either. Now, another GM and Conference
• 3:33:22
  Gerald knows no idea what he's doing.
• 3:33:23
  He's really messing it up with the young defensemen team of my
• 3:33:26
  own contract looks really bad too and he's been horrified out.
• 3:33:29
  He was good that first year when they traded for him and then he
• 3:33:32
  Fallen. I really just wanted him so bad
• 3:33:34
  and thank God. Yeah he played well this Rangers
• 3:33:37
  in that and that's series and then the Rangers wanted to that
• 3:33:40
  next full season. He just fell off badly and he
• 3:33:43
  Hamilton you knew is gonna be tougher and move as it was, but
• 3:33:45
  they definitely didn't help. Their Matters by healthy.
• 3:33:47
  Scratching him and making him damage to the relationship with
• 3:33:50
  the Islanders. Yeah, Braden was kind of a
• 3:33:51
  pricey thing but he's showing up as good leader already, like he
• 3:33:54
  said, two good players at the Flyers, could play on fears with
• 3:33:56
  the blues. Hopefully, he keeps it going for
• 3:33:57
  the Islanders they're gonna need that kind of thing.
• 3:33:59
  And for the Rangers. Yeah, I don't mind them.
• 3:34:00
  Trying to swing at one point for going for a big trade like that,
• 3:34:03
  by trying to settle off for it and not trade anything at all.
• 3:34:05
  Yeah, good luck. Chris, drew around getting that
• 3:34:07
  to work Buffalo boss and the wild turned you down.
• 3:34:09
  That shows you with good organization.
• 3:34:11
  That's a bad sign. I would say there's plenty of
• 3:34:15
  bad signs going on with the Rangers right now.
• 3:34:18
  Let's quickly go to gentlemen, New York, not to Adam kimelman.
• 3:34:22
  So he sounded pretty high on Chris Drury and next season he
• 3:34:26
  was all sunshine and Roses I couldn't believe that made me
• 3:34:30
  feel so happy. I couldn't believe he said that
• 3:34:32
  I was shocked but go ahead. And just absolutely ridiculous.
• 3:34:37
  But, you know, he, he's inside her, he must know, something
• 3:34:42
  Harold, he doesn't and the Sabers.
• 3:34:44
  The Sabers are in first, they have won eight straight games,
• 3:34:47
  past the lightning. For first in the Atlantic, they
• 3:34:50
  got 86 points. They're two points behind
• 3:34:52
  Carolina for the best record in the entire East.
• 3:34:56
  They get Luke Schenn and Tanner Pearson today.
• 3:34:59
  But tonight, they lost tonight but they debuted tonight.
• 3:35:01
  And since December 9th, they've got the most regulation wins
• 3:35:05
  point percentage and goal differential in all of hockey,
• 3:35:09
  as far as the bills, the bills spent a lot of money on Dawson
• 3:35:14
  Knox for some reason, three years, 29 and a half million for
• 3:35:17
  a guy who I thought was their backup tight end behind Dalton
• 3:35:20
  Kincaid. I guess they're making him their
• 3:35:22
  number one. Now with that kind of money they
• 3:35:24
  traded Taryn Johnson and they replaced him with d.
• 3:35:30
  Alfred a young girl slot Corner, gave him three years 21, but the
• 3:35:33
  big move was Bradley chubby. They got him from the Dolphins,
• 3:35:36
  three years, 43, and a half million 29, guaranteed up to 52
• 3:35:41
  and a half with incentives to fix that kind of not great pass
• 3:35:45
  rush. All right, so the Sabers.
• 3:35:47
  I listen, the Sabers have a great future, they really Tage
• 3:35:51
  Thompson. He's he's a great leader, Young
• 3:35:54
  American player. You saw him for team us.
• 3:35:56
  Say he played a big part of their win and and obviously they
• 3:36:00
  run all the way to the gold medal.
• 3:36:02
  They got a tremendous amount of talent.
• 3:36:04
  Young Dale is it is a great defense man.
• 3:36:07
  Their their future is bright. So I'm gonna tell you watch out
• 3:36:11
  for the savior's for the next couple of years.
• 3:36:12
  They could be a Stanley Cup contending team as far as the
• 3:36:16
  bills are concerned job. That was a lot of money for
• 3:36:19
  child who can't stay healthy. I'm sorry.
• 3:36:21
  I'm not paying them. That kind of money.
• 3:36:23
  I know he's a pass rush. I know we can get at the
• 3:36:25
  quarterback. What did he do for Miami,
• 3:36:27
  honestly, what did he do for Miami?
• 3:36:29
  He came from the moment mistaken, the Broncos and goes
• 3:36:33
  to Miami. He got paid a lot of money and
• 3:36:35
  just really didn't produce the way we thought he was going to
• 3:36:38
  produce. Everybody was like, Wow, when
• 3:36:40
  he, oh, he's going to Miami. And that defense really wasn't
• 3:36:43
  the player that we thought he was gonna be.
• 3:36:45
  We seen this before, with, with the bills, they bringing these
• 3:36:49
  veteran, guys, Von Miller being on all the one and gets a lot of
• 3:36:52
  money and doesn't really produce the way we expected him too.
• 3:36:55
  So, I don't understand it. But I think the bill is a fine.
• 3:36:59
  I think DJ Moore was the the Home Run move that they made and
• 3:37:02
  I think it's going to help them move forward this season.
• 3:37:04
  Yeah, I was surprised fish like you were with Knox giving him
• 3:37:07
  that much money because I'm not I'm not just a good player.
• 3:37:09
  He has a good player the other kid that they drafted though
• 3:37:11
  with Jackson Hall is actually played very well as a third
• 3:37:13
  tight end too. So I would have thought that
• 3:37:15
  would have been a void for new coach offensive-minded coach.
• 3:37:18
  They're gonna use a lot of tight ends in this office the offered
• 3:37:21
  I like the move for that. He played very well.
• 3:37:22
  I kind of fell off at the end of the year with Atlanta but played
• 3:37:25
  very well most of that season Taron Johnson.
• 3:37:26
  I always thought the last two years was kind of on the
• 3:37:28
  decline. Anyway, you see that was locked
• 3:37:30
  Corners as it is Chubb. I'm kind of with you.
• 3:37:31
  Like I trust I don't think there was their biggest need I would
• 3:37:34
  have focus more on DT or linebacker.
• 3:37:35
  If you're gonna give that kind of money so kind of mixed bag
• 3:37:38
  there Buffalo Sabers. Would you pay him 43 million
• 3:37:40
  dollars? No.
• 3:37:41
  No, I would have rather give it a defensive tackle or a
• 3:37:44
  linebacker that kind of money. I'm not paying him more than 30
• 3:37:46
  million dollars. Yeah.
• 3:37:47
  All right. That's he's gonna be he's a
• 3:37:50
  third down guy at this point in his career.
• 3:37:52
  Don't you think? He's Von Miller?
• 3:37:55
  He's a bigger version. Obviously epines is more of a
• 3:37:57
  speed rusher so they needed somebody a little more powerful
• 3:37:59
  maybe to counter that but I don't give that for 14 million a
• 3:38:03
  year. Did you see what they paid Von
• 3:38:05
  Miller? Yeah, I get 100 billion dollars.
• 3:38:07
  I remember. Now they're paying him that
• 3:38:08
  they're paying job. 40, something million dollars, it
• 3:38:11
  makes no sense. You're bringing in a veteran guy
• 3:38:13
  that has not produced the way he produced when he was in Elite
• 3:38:17
  player, right? It doesn't make sense as far as
• 3:38:18
  the Sabers go. Yeah, this is a young core.
• 3:38:20
  That's been trying to finally breaking out in the second half
• 3:38:22
  of the season. They were always good stretches.
• 3:38:23
  Good streaks. And then they fall off badly.
• 3:38:25
  They have one bad losing streak, that hurts them.
• 3:38:27
  The reason they have the longest playoff, John in the league and
• 3:38:29
  I don't kill him was mentioning this too.
• 3:38:31
  In previous times, we've had him on the show.
• 3:38:33
  Sometimes teams don't do anything at the trade deadline.
• 3:38:34
  Are they tried for parade go? When something's working and
• 3:38:37
  they kept that philosophy and they still keep winning the
• 3:38:39
  Sabers ever win. It's gonna be absolute freaking
• 3:38:42
  Bedlam. They will up there.
• 3:38:44
  They're going to, they they are. I mean, I went to college there.
• 3:38:48
  Those fans is the same people as the Bills fans.
• 3:38:50
  They are out of their mind, the bills Mafia, it's not talking
• 3:38:54
  about the bills, they go. I remember, A lot of them, they
• 3:38:57
  call them the sabes bruh, he paddle.
• 3:38:59
  We've had a couple of Sabers on this show and we all remember
• 3:39:03
  Dominic Kashyyyk. So they've gone to the finals
• 3:39:06
  before they. They know what it takes to get
• 3:39:08
  there. They didn't win, but they know
• 3:39:10
  how to get there. That's all I'm gonna say.
• 3:39:11
  Had some good teams back in the early 2000s, too with Danny
• 3:39:14
  Brier Bradley Chubb, was ranked 100th out of 115, qualifying
• 3:39:19
  Edge, rushers last year and had the 14th, most snaps, so not a
• 3:39:24
  good season for Chubb. All right, let's get to Biggie's
• 3:39:28
  hoops and rounded out. I'm just gonna go through the
• 3:39:30
  scoreboard from the Big East tournament.
• 3:39:32
  All three games are finals UConn blew out Xavier.
• 3:39:36
  I believe this is the other day. 9368 Saint John's beat
• 3:39:40
  Providence 85 to 72 today. Seton Hall, knocked off
• 3:39:45
  Creighton 7261. And if we can get the top four
• 3:39:49
  teams in, it would be Villanova, but they're losing at half-time
• 3:39:52
  right now to Georgetown, who has a losing record this season 35
• 3:39:57
  to 31 looking like the. But, you know, if Villanova
• 3:40:01
  Mason the fourth teams that we were expecting, Seton Hall was a
• 3:40:05
  bubble team. As a chance right now to make
• 3:40:09
  things interesting, Seton Hall is not making.
• 3:40:11
  I I Love the Way West, you know, attacked that but Seton Hall is
• 3:40:16
  not beating Saint John's. They're not beating the
• 3:40:18
  Johnnies. Johnny, the Johnny's are
• 3:40:21
  definitely getting in UConn's definitely getting in.
• 3:40:23
  And even if Villanova loses his game, they're getting in.
• 3:40:26
  These are three good teams in the Big East very well known
• 3:40:30
  teams that can make Villanova. I don't know if they make a run
• 3:40:33
  to the Sweet 16, but I think they get out of the first round.
• 3:40:37
  I still think they're a quality team that plays good defense.
• 3:40:40
  Saint John's in Yukon. I think Saint John's could go to
• 3:40:43
  the Sweet 16 depending on how the bracket Falls to them and
• 3:40:47
  how they match up against some of the teams in the bracket.
• 3:40:50
  But you can't Absolutely can make it to the final four.
• 3:40:54
  Watch out. Danny Hurley is a good coach.
• 3:40:57
  He knows how to win games and he knows how to get on to play your
• 3:40:59
  skins on the other team. Yeah, Georgetown fish.
• 3:41:03
  Remember five years ago made a random run is like a 16 and 15
• 3:41:06
  seed and they made the tournament and somebody people
• 3:41:08
  were betting on them, they got smoked to the first round.
• 3:41:09
  So, maybe it's that same kind of thing again, who knows?
• 3:41:11
  But Seton Hall, I've seen them out on most bubbles so far.
• 3:41:15
  So they're probably going to have to win this game.
• 3:41:17
  Not even just compete. I think they can cover the
• 3:41:19
  spread. Will they actually win?
• 3:41:20
  I don't know. Probably not.
• 3:41:21
  But Villanova yeah, I think they're a one round type team
• 3:41:24
  and that's really it for them and I'm the other two are
• 3:41:25
  Powerhouse. All right, guys, that's it for
• 3:41:27
  the carousel. We'll take another spin next
• 3:41:29
  week. All right, ladies and gentlemen,
• 3:41:31
  the final segment of the night, dial it up.
• 3:41:33
  This regular we got a big brother All right.
• 3:41:45
  I like the old one but I was a whole Coke.
• 3:41:47
  Yeah, you know, no, actually, this is just a picture of the
• 3:41:50
  old one. It was.
• 3:41:51
  It's the same thing. I just blew it up.
• 3:41:53
  Dial it up. Everyone's favorite lightning
• 3:41:57
  round Sports segments. We got five stories.
• 3:42:00
  Arrow hasn't heard him. He's gonna hear him right now.
• 3:42:03
  Dial up a take. Here's the first one.
• 3:42:07
  Joe Missoula has had many interesting post-game.
• 3:42:11
  Let's say diatribes in his career as a Boston Celtics head
• 3:42:17
  coach. Well Jalen Brown who was ejected
• 3:42:20
  after getting two technicals one from one referee and then
• 3:42:23
  another from a different referee down the down the court.
• 3:42:28
  Had a really weird comment when he was defending him to the
• 3:42:32
  media. I just give a ton of credit to
• 3:42:35
  my high school principal. He had the balls to throw a
• 3:42:39
  student out. He didn't leave it to the hall
• 3:42:41
  monitor. When they pressed him about it
• 3:42:45
  and had a follow-up question that had nothing to do with the
• 3:42:47
  principal had to do with Jalen Brown.
• 3:42:49
  He wrote he just said he was a hell of a principal and that was
• 3:42:53
  the interview. Jalen Brown was incensed after
• 3:42:56
  getting ejected. He immediately took the social
• 3:42:59
  media. He says this is what I this is
• 3:43:01
  the shit I be talking about and when off obviously not happy
• 3:43:08
  Jayson Tatum was back. This was their first loss with
• 3:43:11
  Tatum in the folder Errol. another weird one from Missoula
• 3:43:15
  and the Seas Up, I love Missoula.
• 3:43:21
  I think he's gonna win coach of the year.
• 3:43:22
  He's at a sensational year. This team has played good team,
• 3:43:25
  basketball defensively and offensively.
• 3:43:27
  Jalen Brown has been one of the MVP candidates.
• 3:43:30
  He's had a great year, but this selfish disrespectful move to
• 3:43:36
  his own team to get two flagrant fouls.
• 3:43:39
  I mean, technical fouls and be thrown out of the game, the way
• 3:43:42
  he did. And then after Missoula goes
• 3:43:44
  out. And he says, he says, a lot of
• 3:43:46
  weird things to the media. We seen him in the playoffs
• 3:43:48
  against the Knicks. He was itching his head.
• 3:43:50
  He's always itching his head and figuring out what to say, and
• 3:43:53
  how he doesn't throw any of his players onto the boss.
• 3:43:55
  It made no sense. I know he's trying to cover for
• 3:43:59
  his players. Jalen Brown is his Superstar.
• 3:44:01
  So he wants to make sure that he doesn't throw him under the bus
• 3:44:04
  but the answers that he has for the media and even Jalen Brown
• 3:44:08
  going to social media. After that and making his
• 3:44:12
  statements, it just makes him look so very bad.
• 3:44:14
  I respect Jalen Brown, I think he's a great 8% off the court.
• 3:44:19
  He does a lot of good things but selfish very selfish.
• 3:44:22
  Yeah, very odd analogy. I know fish is a teacher.
• 3:44:24
  You're probably just a weirded out by the whole.
• 3:44:27
  Oh, this is a hell of a principal analogy with that
• 3:44:30
  following an incident that was really just controversial as it
• 3:44:34
  was like defending him after the incident.
• 3:44:35
  So it was kind of where it is to stick up for his player.
• 3:44:37
  I guess, he always it's just it's a strange approach the way
• 3:44:41
  he did it. That's something I would have
• 3:44:42
  expected for me. Remember what he did last year
• 3:44:45
  when he was down three? Oh, to the next.
• 3:44:47
  Remember when the media says, what is it?
• 3:44:49
  Feel like being down to a team that you've been Superior to all
• 3:44:53
  these years and he gave up, he said something stupid, and
• 3:44:57
  that's all he really had to say about it.
• 3:44:59
  He says, well, it was a fourth game, we're not out yet.
• 3:45:02
  I'm like, you listening to him and he was like, what are you
• 3:45:05
  talking? Yeah, that's over.
• 3:45:06
  That's he's ever come back from that job.
• 3:45:09
  He's just out of his mind. I, he's definitely a weird
• 3:45:13
  person. There's no question.
• 3:45:14
  I love. I would love to have a
• 3:45:16
  conversation with his family. That's for sure.
• 3:45:18
  Never think that eccentric though, but here we are.
• 3:45:21
  All right, I got another good one coming for you in dial it
• 3:45:25
  up. Next one on Deck, after we get
• 3:45:28
  out of basketball, we're gonna take the trip back.
• 3:45:31
  To the World Baseball, Classic Errol.
• 3:45:33
  There was some controversy in the Mexico game between some
• 3:45:38
  teammates Randy arose Arena and the big dumper Cal Raleigh a
• 3:45:44
  rose Arena, tried to DAP up the catcher.
• 3:45:47
  When he came to the plate Cal Raleigh was having none of it
• 3:45:51
  after the game a rose Arena. Speaking in Spanish said, I want
• 3:45:58
  to tell him F you in four languages, the rest, I'll tell
• 3:46:03
  him Cuban style. He needs to go back to his
• 3:46:06
  effing house, Mexican style, go to hell.
• 3:46:09
  And in English, shove it up your a double snakes.
• 3:46:14
  Arrow. Some teammates, having some
• 3:46:16
  issues. All though, Cal, Riley says,
• 3:46:18
  there's no beef at all? It all.
• 3:46:22
  I like cow rally. He's playing for Team USA.
• 3:46:24
  He's paying for his collars. He's paying for he's playing for
• 3:46:27
  his country. And, you know, teammates may be
• 3:46:30
  teammates and and Cal Raleigh said, you know, said what he
• 3:46:34
  felt when he was on the field after the game, and the game is
• 3:46:36
  the game. And then after that your
• 3:46:38
  teammates, again, I think this is good competition.
• 3:46:41
  You want to see players stick up for your teammates and you're
• 3:46:45
  playing for Team USA. You're not, you're not
• 3:46:47
  considered Seattle after after this tournament, you're back
• 3:46:50
  with Seattle. I'm sure they're gonna have a
• 3:46:52
  beer together and laugh about it.
• 3:46:53
  I don't think it's a big deal, but the fact here is, is that
• 3:46:57
  your former teammates, I mean, your, your former teammates
• 3:47:00
  teammates right now, because you're playing for opposite
• 3:47:03
  teams, but I think Cal rally has it right, who cares.
• 3:47:07
  It's it's just competition. Friendly competition, he took it
• 3:47:11
  to another level. Rally just said, listen, I'm not
• 3:47:13
  having and I'm not there to have a font, you know, I have a party
• 3:47:16
  with him, I'm there to win. I'm here to win a championship
• 3:47:19
  so I like that. I like the competition.
• 3:47:21
  It's always great to see like the type of like competitive
• 3:47:24
  levels, guys, get when they remember a few years ago, I
• 3:47:28
  forget which Billy Baseball, Classic must have been the last
• 3:47:31
  one where a trout got struck out by ohtani and they were both on
• 3:47:35
  the big deal. That was the last out that was
• 3:47:38
  the last. Yeah.
• 3:47:38
  Right. So I I think I just love seeing
• 3:47:41
  stuff like that. You so those are the types of
• 3:47:43
  things you want to see like well what would have happened if you
• 3:47:46
  know Guys, on the same team would have faced off of against
• 3:47:50
  each other. Jeter had a chance to face, you
• 3:47:53
  know, like David Cohn. When they were both on the, you
• 3:47:57
  know, Mariano Rivera tournament, mariana rivera facing, you know,
• 3:48:01
  the middle of the Yankees lineup that how cool would that have
• 3:48:04
  been, you know what I mean? So I I think it was a really
• 3:48:07
  interesting thing. I obviously they're gonna squash
• 3:48:09
  it but Randy Rose arena is a very interesting guy and he's
• 3:48:14
  been he's been in a few places now in the league from Cuba,
• 3:48:19
  Mexico, I tell you, originally Cuban and then he started
• 3:48:23
  playing for Team Mexico. I guess he's half Or something
• 3:48:27
  like that but Rosie Rose Arena. He's a wild wild guy.
• 3:48:32
  Have you heard any stories about a rosarino over the years?
• 3:48:34
  I've heard some, but he's Cuban. There's a lot of crazy stories
• 3:48:38
  to you. There's a former Matt that made
• 3:48:42
  excuses about a wild boar attacking.
• 3:48:44
  Yeah, I mean, we all know those Cubans.
• 3:48:47
  They are all Unique Individuals. Yeah, there's a Heisman Trophy
• 3:48:51
  winner, Fernando Mendoza he's Cuban.
• 3:48:53
  I can't wait to see him. In the NFL, some of the crazy
• 3:48:56
  stuff that's gonna be happening over there with the Raiders.
• 3:48:58
  Maybe a suspects could go buy one of his cars.
• 3:49:00
  That's true too. So apparently he is he fled Cuba
• 3:49:05
  by boat in 2015 and then lived in Mexico after surviving but he
• 3:49:13
  had it's not a great story. This is kind of sad.
• 3:49:16
  I'm gonna stop reading it and get back to the show.
• 3:49:18
  Here it is. Next one we got up here.
• 3:49:21
  We're going to get out of baseball and I believe head back
• 3:49:23
  over to some hoops with one of your favorite coaches of all
• 3:49:28
  time. Golden State Warriors, legendary
• 3:49:32
  coach Harrell at these things, ever gonna move on Steve Kerr.
• 3:49:36
  He said he came out and said that he's reiterating it, he
• 3:49:39
  can't stand the fact that he just had a road trip for a week
• 3:49:44
  and a half and didn't have a single day where he could have
• 3:49:47
  practice. Because we're playing too many
• 3:49:49
  games back in the 90s, we had practice.
• 3:49:52
  Maybe they have more games but they spread them out.
• 3:49:54
  I don't really know what's going on, but Steve Kerr, he keeps
• 3:49:58
  pushing this, he knows it's not likely because of the money.
• 3:50:03
  But he thinks for the long-term health of the league, they need
• 3:50:07
  to do the right thing by the players, dial it up.
• 3:50:11
  All right. Practice.
• 3:50:12
  Remember what Alan Iverson said, practice practice.
• 3:50:18
  Practice means nothing. You go out there.
• 3:50:20
  You Got Talent now all over some of your bitching and moaning
• 3:50:23
  because you got a bunch of old players, stop it.
• 3:50:26
  This is very steep Kirk s. This is a guy that never
• 3:50:30
  complained about this. When you had an elite team, you
• 3:50:33
  had Jimmy buckets at a, at a high level.
• 3:50:36
  When he came from Miami and you had Steph Curry and then I will
• 3:50:41
  go, you had, I don't know, Klay Thompson, Kevin Durant, dream on
• 3:50:46
  green in the primes of their careers and you weren't pitching
• 3:50:49
  him owning about this. Now, all of us saying you have a
• 3:50:51
  bunch all players and now you want 10 games knocked off of an
• 3:50:54
  82 Game season. Get that hell out of here.
• 3:50:56
  You need something changed in your brain because that's never
• 3:51:01
  gonna happen. If anything, they'll add games
• 3:51:03
  before they lose games, there's a lot of money.
• 3:51:05
  There's a lot of TV deals that have to be made and and they're
• 3:51:09
  making it right now. There's no way out of silver or
• 3:51:11
  the lja is ever gonna walk away from that.
• 3:51:15
  That's the main thing I was gonna mention that just as you
• 3:51:18
  Set it to they would more than add games then take away games
• 3:51:22
  and we're talking about 10 NBA games, even when they had um,
• 3:51:26
  because if you think about it, the last time they technically
• 3:51:28
  did have a shortened season with 10 games as well was the season
• 3:51:32
  returning back from the covid pandemic in the 2021 2022 season
• 3:51:36
  now, even with that that format when straight inverter back
• 3:51:40
  right to the 82 format, I mean if anything then we have the
• 3:51:44
  tournament become a thing now and then we also had the play in
• 3:51:47
  tournament like there's gonna be ways that there's gonna be more
• 3:51:50
  games added. There's gonna be more
• 3:51:51
  opportunity to sell tickets like you mentioned there and the fact
• 3:51:55
  is is that that comes down to coaching if you really think
• 3:51:58
  that your players are affected in any way like that something's
• 3:52:01
  not being done at practice. Something's not being done in
• 3:52:04
  the coaching aspect only because you have a bunch of old guys and
• 3:52:07
  like you said all in the prime of their careers, none of this
• 3:52:10
  complaining was was even a thought and Steve Christmas mine
• 3:52:13
  with the back-to-back championships that he was
• 3:52:15
  winning. All right, let's move on.
• 3:52:18
  Arrow I don't know if you saw this, but this is an all-time or
• 3:52:22
  right here on screwing up. That press guy heard about this.
• 3:52:28
  Had one of the most disastrous. Bachelor parties anyone can have
• 3:52:35
  it wasn't just a bachelor party was a joint bachelor and
• 3:52:38
  bachelorette party with his no longer fiance.
• 3:52:44
  Sarah Jane Ramos, so apparently during the event.
• 3:52:50
  They were not talking it got awkward.
• 3:52:54
  He was seen and accused of being unfaithful numerous times
• 3:53:00
  getting into the DMS on Instagram perhaps while he was
• 3:53:05
  there. There were 250 people at this
• 3:53:09
  Bachelorette bachelor party who got they stayed by afterwards
• 3:53:14
  and then sent an email to all of them and forming them that the
• 3:53:18
  wedding in April. In a couple of weeks is now off
• 3:53:22
  that was supposed to be in Lake Como Italy after presumably a
• 3:53:27
  lot of money had been spent and plane tickets in arrangements
• 3:53:30
  had already been bought in by these guests dial it ah, all
• 3:53:35
  right. I heard about this.
• 3:53:37
  We don't know the whole story. It's a shame.
• 3:53:40
  I like DAC. I don't know what happened.
• 3:53:43
  It's crazy to have a bachelor and bachelorette party you throw
• 3:53:47
  yourself on the bus point. There are women there.
• 3:53:49
  You know, this is the last time you're going to be single in a
• 3:53:53
  lot of people believe that when you're out with your boys you
• 3:53:55
  want to be away from the girl's So I would have never done that.
• 3:53:59
  Now I don't know what he does in his private life and maybe he's
• 3:54:02
  dming people, there's a lot of athletes, Kobe Bryant was
• 3:54:05
  cheating on his wife, anybody remember that?
• 3:54:06
  And he almost went to jail and thank God.
• 3:54:09
  He had a very good lawyer that made.
• 3:54:11
  Sure he got his panties her, I'm sorry her panties because they
• 3:54:15
  were different semen specimens on them so we all know what she
• 3:54:19
  was doing in her private life but this is a horrible story.
• 3:54:22
  If you think about Dak Prescott and everything, that's happened
• 3:54:25
  to him over the years finally found a woman that he wanted to
• 3:54:27
  get married with. He has a kid with and you think
• 3:54:31
  about it, now, you lost your mom, you lost your brother
• 3:54:35
  suicide, you almost lost your career.
• 3:54:37
  You've all the trials and tribulations you have.
• 3:54:39
  And now you lost the person that you loved and you wanted to get
• 3:54:42
  married to who has the I think your daughter.
• 3:54:45
  I think it's your daughter. It's a horrible story.
• 3:54:48
  I feel bad for gas. I I don't think he was right.
• 3:54:51
  I don't know the whole story and until I know the whole story, I
• 3:54:53
  can't accuse him for anything but I'm sure he was unfaithful
• 3:54:57
  all the Athletes are Unfaithful when you traveling around and
• 3:55:01
  hanging out with your boys on your team.
• 3:55:02
  So, it's unfortunate. Yeah, they have two kids, two
• 3:55:06
  daughters. It was a mutual agreement.
• 3:55:08
  There was no big argument, just very awkward situation the
• 3:55:14
  entire time apparently. It's really, it's really kind of
• 3:55:19
  messed up on a couple of different levels.
• 3:55:20
  If you think about it, when you have a big celebration of
• 3:55:25
  getting together and being married, the last thing you
• 3:55:28
  should be thinking about is infidelity.
• 3:55:30
  So why number one are you gonna have a massive bachelor party?
• 3:55:35
  Like you didn't have a million awesome times in your life
• 3:55:37
  already and get yourself in trouble and two, if you wanted
• 3:55:41
  to have a bachelor party like that, Why would you also do it
• 3:55:46
  as a joint bachelorette party doesn't?
• 3:55:48
  There's no way. That's not gonna go badly for
• 3:55:51
  you. I was actually part of one such
• 3:55:53
  event when I was in my early 20s that wedding and ended in
• 3:55:58
  divorce within a couple of years and that night was an
• 3:56:01
  unmitigated disaster. There's just don't do it.
• 3:56:05
  Just don't, unless you're gonna have a nice calm night and it's
• 3:56:09
  going to be more reserved and which case it's a good thing to
• 3:56:12
  do. That was a mistake and a half by
• 3:56:14
  Jack. Damn.
• 3:56:15
  All right. Last one of the night we're
• 3:56:18
  gonna stay salacious here. Arrow.
• 3:56:21
  I think Speedy's gonna get to talk about this one, because I
• 3:56:25
  feel like the guy in the picture here, Luke Cornett if Speedy you
• 3:56:28
  were seven feet tall, you kind of look like this guy a little
• 3:56:31
  bit. Luke Coronet made a big stink a
• 3:56:34
  couple of weeks ago about just how derogatory the NBA's Atlanta
• 3:56:40
  Hawks were with their promotional night of Magic City
• 3:56:45
  which is the one of the famous strip clubs in Atlanta.
• 3:56:48
  They were trying to drum up some more fan fandom for the NBA.
• 3:56:53
  As we know big strip club at 10 D's many NBA players as pictured
• 3:56:58
  in the picture of James Harden and Lou lemon.
• 3:57:01
  Pepper wings at 8 in the morning, during covid at a strip
• 3:57:04
  club, but Williams, all of these guys, well, they eventually have
• 3:57:10
  to suffer because Luke kornets way.
• 3:57:12
  Got into the ears of Adam Silver.
• 3:57:15
  Who said no soup for you. Errol there is no Magic City
• 3:57:20
  promotional night. You're going to have to get your
• 3:57:23
  kicks on route. 66. Dial it up who Luke cornets.
• 3:57:30
  Did he play for the former? Next?
• 3:57:31
  Did he Celtics Celtics Clippers? Yeah.
• 3:57:34
  I thought that's what I'm saying who it's Luke I could care less
• 3:57:38
  what Luke thinks and the fact that Adam Silver steps in again.
• 3:57:42
  One of the players opens their mouth and Adam Silver does he is
• 3:57:46
  all about the players. He's not about the owners.
• 3:57:49
  This is the commissioner of professional basketball.
• 3:57:51
  This is been a big problem. The lja has been running this
• 3:57:56
  league since he's come into the league and Adam Silver is his
• 3:57:59
  bitch and to me it's pathetic I if you want to do something with
• 3:58:04
  Magic City and it's a strip bar who cares it's all about raising
• 3:58:08
  and and making money and and promoting something.
• 3:58:11
  It's a very popular thing over there in Atlanta.
• 3:58:13
  Who cares. Does it really bother you that
• 3:58:16
  much cornet? It shouldn't bother you what
• 3:58:20
  because you're a dad because you're playing for the
• 3:58:22
  organization who cares. It's all about making.
• 3:58:26
  Money. And if people are gonna buy the
• 3:58:27
  tickets to enjoy it and have a good time then, so be it.
• 3:58:31
  And by the way, out of silver, I would hate to see you dancing on
• 3:58:35
  top of a pole. That's all I'm gonna say, I
• 3:58:38
  would hate to see anyone dancing on top of a pole, but yeah,
• 3:58:40
  there's other ways to do it. So you can promote the wings.
• 3:58:42
  You can promote some of the other stuff too.
• 3:58:43
  Like there's a medium that could go on, that doesn't have to
• 3:58:47
  cancel the event entirely either.
• 3:58:48
  Like. Yeah, it's one of those Atlantis
• 3:58:50
  on. I think we popularized there
• 3:58:52
  with his covid Antics. But yeah, there's other ways you
• 3:58:55
  can promote that kind of thing rather than just forcing a team
• 3:58:57
  in the Atlanta, Hawks to cancel the event for something like
• 3:59:00
  local. Like they do give it weighs
• 3:59:02
  like, give away some of the wings player scores 20 points.
• 3:59:05
  Yes Speedy. That's actually what they were
• 3:59:07
  going to do. They were going to have wings of
• 3:59:10
  their famous lemon pepper wings. Atlanta rapper TI was going to
• 3:59:15
  come out and have a performance and there was going to be alive.
• 3:59:21
  With the founder of Magic City and then they were giving people
• 3:59:25
  hoodies and apparel, you know, it was a free giveaway thing but
• 3:59:29
  Luke Cornett said, you know, it's bad for women and it's
• 3:59:34
  against the NBA's responsibility to protect women, which I guess,
• 3:59:37
  you know having a profession which is completely legal is not
• 3:59:41
  protecting women. I don't know please stop and
• 3:59:45
  that's and that's it boys. That's the last story in dial it
• 3:59:49
  up. That is the most ridiculous
• 3:59:50
  story and the fact here is people are getting free stuff
• 3:59:54
  and wings and free hoodies. Why are you bitching and
• 3:59:58
  Monique? You're gonna get a free hoodie.
• 3:59:59
  You're gonna get wings. What are you complaining about?
• 4:00:00
  Here's the problem Adam Silver allows these players to make
• 4:00:04
  decisions for him. That is a big problem.
• 4:00:07
  This is what we've been complaining about Adam Silver
• 4:00:10
  out of silver is one of very few GM's over the years that doesn't
• 4:00:14
  know how to speak for himself in the ownership who hires out
• 4:00:18
  himself over the owners and look the players are the ones that At
• 4:00:22
  eliminated two owners, they made mistakes.
• 4:00:24
  They did things that were obviously absolutely discredited
• 4:00:28
  and terrible and they apologized to it and they lost their
• 4:00:32
  organizations. They lost their franchise
• 4:00:34
  franchises because the players didn't like them.
• 4:00:38
  How do you push out an owner that bought an organization?
• 4:00:41
  How do you do that? It doesn't make any sense, but
• 4:00:44
  I'm silver David Stern David Stearns.
• 4:00:46
  Never did it David Stern running the NBA never pushed out an
• 4:00:52
  owner ever. ever but Adam Silver did it too. too In a 10-year
• 4:00:59
  span, it's pathetic and that shows you how Adam Silver really
• 4:01:03
  cares about what the owners think and the owners are paying
• 4:01:06
  him. He's getting paid by these rich
• 4:01:08
  owners not by the players and that's all I'm going to say
• 4:01:11
  about that the lja LeBron James Association.
• 4:01:14
  It's been a big problem for the last couple of years really less
• 4:01:18
  15 years since LeBron. James is taking over the league
• 4:01:21
  and by storm and he is he was the best player in the world.
• 4:01:25
  He's no longer the best player in the world, but he still has a
• 4:01:28
  voice and the players are following that voice.
• 4:01:31
  He has so much power outside of the gym and even inside of the
• 4:01:36
  gym still in this world Luka doncic can't stand him and I
• 4:01:40
  can't wait until the offseason when when LeBron James either
• 4:01:44
  decides to retire goes to the Cavaliers or wherever he decides
• 4:01:48
  to go. Hopefully not the next okay.
• 4:01:50
  Well Luca will be on a podcast and he's going to throw LeBron
• 4:01:54
  James onto the bus, you watch, mark my words you're gonna see
• 4:01:58
  this Luca and LeBron beef start when LeBron James is no longer,
• 4:02:02
  a Laker guaranteed book it and I'm going to tell you, I told
• 4:02:05
  you so I'm actually gonna write a story about it tonight.
• 4:02:09
  That's what I'm going to do because I do believe.
• 4:02:12
  That Luca and LeBron can't stand one another and, and it's going
• 4:02:15
  to come out. Ladies and gentlemen, it is
• 4:02:18
  Anyways, that's it for our show. I want I want to apologize to
• 4:02:21
