- 0:17Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio.
- 0:20Speaker 1: We are five and a half hours away from the
- 0:22Speaker 1: biggest game in the history of games, Game three of
- 0:26Speaker 1: the NBA Finals, the Mecca Nix and Spurs Nix up
- 0:32Speaker 1: two games to nothing. Israel goodieres is making me nervous
- 0:36Speaker 1: by trying to calm me down. Is he just tell
- 0:39Speaker 1: me it's gonna be okay? Because listen, time cannot go.
- 0:43Speaker 1: It's moving very slowly right now. Yeah, I need to
- 0:45Speaker 1: get to this game. I am nervous because of how
- 0:47Speaker 1: the last game ended. I'm nervous because of Wemby. I'm
- 0:51Speaker 1: nervous because that guy is not going to sweat any
- 0:53Speaker 1: of this. And I'm nervous because I keep thinking about,
- 0:56Speaker 1: rather than the next winning an NBA championship. I am
- 1:00Speaker 1: wondering what the reaction is going to be if the
- 1:03Speaker 1: Knicks end up blowing a two nothing series lead. Headed
- 1:06Speaker 1: back home to Madison Square guarded, I am focused on
- 1:09Speaker 1: the wrong things.
- 1:10Speaker 3: Please soothe me.
- 1:11Speaker 4: Well, I could soothe you, but I wrote down exactly that.
- 1:14Speaker 4: I wrote down a list of if the Knicks win,
- 1:16Speaker 4: meaning the series, and if they lose, and man, it
- 1:19Speaker 4: feels like that if they lose, it's just so much
- 1:21Speaker 4: more entertaining. Like I definitely want to at least check
- 1:28Speaker 4: in on if somebody paid seven figures for a ticket
- 1:31Speaker 4: for either Game four or three or even six. If
- 1:35Speaker 4: it gets there and the Knicks end up losing, I
- 1:38Speaker 4: want to talk to those people see how their lives
- 1:40Speaker 4: are going. I'm also curious if they win, Taylor, I
- 1:45Speaker 4: think you're probably the best person to ask this. If
- 1:47Speaker 4: they win, does it then make all other Knicks playoff
- 1:51Speaker 4: highlights not matter, like completely irrelevant, like the four point
- 1:55Speaker 4: play LJ. Is it not a thing anymore because they
- 1:57Speaker 4: got close?
- 1:58Speaker 5: Yeah, they didn't do anything.
- 1:59Speaker 1: I answer on Taylor's behalf it all goes away from
- 2:02Speaker 1: me really, yes, So it's all.
- 2:04Speaker 4: These finals highlights if they win it and then secondary
- 2:07Speaker 4: you have other Nicks highlights.
- 2:09Speaker 6: Yes, okay, And I'll answer on behalf of all Knicks fans.
- 2:11Speaker 6: It doesn't go away?
- 2:12Speaker 5: No, no, it does it does?
- 2:14Speaker 1: I mean tell me the next time if they win
- 2:16Speaker 1: an NBA title, the next time you'll see Alan Houston shot.
- 2:18Speaker 1: I mean the next time you'll see Larry Johnson shot.
- 2:20Speaker 1: You won't see it. You'll see Wemby missing that the
- 2:23Speaker 1: elbow jumper more than you'll see any sort of Nick
- 2:26Speaker 1: highlights from the past. I'm serious about that. You're not
- 2:30Speaker 1: soothing me, though, I'm sorry.
- 2:32Speaker 5: I feel like Taylor had something more on that stuff.
- 2:35Speaker 6: Ticket prices are also plummeting for some reason. Ticket I
- 2:38Speaker 6: saw a ticket on a third party site that was
- 2:42Speaker 6: thirty five hundred and STU. I've been holding strong saying,
- 2:46Speaker 6: you know what, I'm not spending this money. I'm not
- 2:48Speaker 6: spending this money. The tickets are dropping into a range
- 2:51Speaker 6: where I'm at least considering it. But at this point,
- 2:54Speaker 6: even if somebody handed me thirty five hundred dollars, I
- 2:57Speaker 6: think I would just put that thirty five hundred dollars
- 3:00Speaker 6: wards Championship NBA Finals merch, because you'd be surprised how
- 3:04Speaker 6: quick one thousand dollars in championship merch goes. Once you
- 3:07Speaker 6: get a Jose Alvarado, Karl Anthony Towns, and Landry shamat.
- 3:11Speaker 4: Jersey, oh my god, he's going to come back draped
- 3:13Speaker 4: in Nick's gear for the rest of time.
- 3:15Speaker 5: That's gonna look great.
- 3:16Speaker 3: I just love that.
- 3:17Speaker 1: If someone handed him thirty five hundred dollars today, it
- 3:19Speaker 1: wouldn't be spent on the ticket. It wouldn't be spent
- 3:22Speaker 1: on you know, perhaps you know, put it in a
- 3:24Speaker 1: savings account, maybe buy some stocks, you know, a CD something.
- 3:27Speaker 1: Now he's going to go buy more Nick merch. This
- 3:30Speaker 1: coming from the man who suitcase when he traveled from
- 3:33Speaker 1: Florida to New York only had Nick jerseys in it.
- 3:37Speaker 5: I meant party.
- 3:38Speaker 3: Yeah, he'd have toothpaste and.
- 3:41Speaker 6: Going back to Fort Lauderdale. I'm gonna to check it back.
- 3:46Speaker 4: So the plummeting ticket prices, I'm glad you brought that up, Taylor.
- 3:50Speaker 4: That has to be because of the annoyance of getting
- 3:52Speaker 4: there right Like if you were to have a ticket, Taylor,
- 3:54Speaker 4: I think you have to show up right now at
- 3:57Speaker 4: three eastern in order to get through those doors in time.
- 4:00Speaker 6: Yeah, there's a worry there where the Knicks are doing
- 4:04Speaker 6: a strict no bag policy because of the President's attendance.
- 4:08Speaker 6: But where the worry comes, I don't know. If you
- 4:10Speaker 6: guys have been following this. Carl Anthony Towns's fiance, Jordan Woods,
- 4:15Speaker 6: has a lucky bag that she brings to games, and
- 4:17Speaker 6: now Knicks fans are saying, hold on a second, you're
- 4:20Speaker 6: saying there's a strict no bag policy. Does Karl Anthony
- 4:23Speaker 6: Towns have to be the one who brings his bag
- 4:25Speaker 6: through his security and then he hands it over to
- 4:27Speaker 6: Jordan Woods? What happens if security sees Jordan Woods with
- 4:30Speaker 6: the bag? It's there's a lot of things going on
- 4:33Speaker 6: right now, a lot of plates being spun. We need
- 4:36Speaker 6: Jordan Wood's bag in Madison, so it.
- 4:38Speaker 5: Has to be in the garden.
- 4:39Speaker 1: Yes, it has to be in the garden. And for me,
- 4:41Speaker 1: it has to be brought in by Jordan Woods, not
- 4:43Speaker 1: Karl Anthony Town's, not anyone else.
- 4:44Speaker 3: Just Jordan Woods.
- 4:46Speaker 1: I mean, seriously, if anyone has earned a bag exception,
- 4:49Speaker 1: it should be Jordan Woods.
- 4:50Speaker 3: Is that fair? I mean, of.
- 4:52Speaker 4: Course, you know, it bugs me that all of these
- 4:55Speaker 4: things are changing when the Knicks get home because of
- 4:57Speaker 4: this guy.
- 4:57Speaker 5: Who's that I mean, is he even a New Yorker?
- 4:58Speaker 3: I don't even know.
- 5:01Speaker 4: And yeah, I just look, I just think there's so
- 5:03Speaker 4: much about tonight that is just unpredictable. You don't know
- 5:08Speaker 4: how and this is going to I don't know if
- 5:09Speaker 4: this is going to soothe you, Stu, but you don't
- 5:11Speaker 4: know how Victor Weinbinyama's going to bounce back from that
- 5:14Speaker 4: particular horrible ending for him, those last couple of plays
- 5:17Speaker 4: in that game. You don't know how the building is
- 5:19Speaker 4: going to affect either team. You don't know how any
- 5:22Speaker 4: of this is really going to go. And so it
- 5:25Speaker 4: even though the Knicks are up to oh, it feels
- 5:28Speaker 4: like the least stable up two oh in the finals
- 5:31Speaker 4: that I've ever heard, that I've ever seen, I've experienced,
- 5:33Speaker 4: because even that O two that the heat went down
- 5:36Speaker 4: and O six that I was covering, it felt like
- 5:38Speaker 4: that was over.
- 5:39Speaker 5: And they lost both those games on the road.
- 5:41Speaker 3: Yes, again, not soothing me at all.
- 5:43Speaker 1: I mean, mikey A, I'm asking for some soothing and
- 5:45Speaker 1: he is really painting a picture. The Knicks are up
- 5:48Speaker 1: to oh, they're headed back home to the most famous
- 5:51Speaker 1: arena in all of sports anywhere in the world. And
- 5:54Speaker 1: yet somehow is he has made me more nervous than
- 5:57Speaker 1: I was before.
- 5:58Speaker 4: We started the show, right, well, because what's more likely
- 6:00Speaker 4: that Michale Bridges continues to shoot about seventy five percent
- 6:03Speaker 4: from the field, or that Wemby starts to shoot seventy
- 6:06Speaker 4: five they.
- 6:07Speaker 6: Won thirteen streets.
- 6:08Speaker 1: I mean, for crying out loud, go ahead, Mike, Yeah, sorry, No.
- 6:12Speaker 7: I'm just wondering if the Spurs were up too oh,
- 6:14Speaker 7: because he would be like, I don't.
- 6:15Speaker 3: Know this happens, And if this happens, that.
- 6:20Speaker 5: The Spurs are up two, oh, this series wouldn't have started.
- 6:22Speaker 3: No, all they would have done is hold serf.
- 6:24Speaker 1: I mean that's the Knicks broke serve twice, and that
- 6:27Speaker 1: is he is still making me nervous and somehow is
- 6:30Speaker 1: convinced me this game is more important for the Knicks
- 6:32Speaker 1: than it is for the San Antonio Spurs.
- 6:34Speaker 5: Well, I mean, if they go up three to zero,
- 6:36Speaker 5: it's definitely over.
- 6:37Speaker 3: Oh, thank you.
- 6:39Speaker 6: With watch parties being canceled outside Madison Square Garden and
- 6:43Speaker 6: all this extra security going in politics aside, if your
- 6:47Speaker 6: presence at a game is this big of an inconvenience
- 6:51Speaker 6: towards said fan base that you say you root for,
- 6:54Speaker 6: I don't think you could really claim to be a
- 6:56Speaker 6: fan of that team where where you're making fans to
- 6:59Speaker 6: jump through oops to even go to this game.
- 7:01Speaker 4: Right, So like if the Bulls were in the finals
- 7:04Speaker 4: when Barack Obama was president, he just would have watched
- 7:07Speaker 4: from home, is what you're saying.
- 7:09Speaker 3: Percent for the greater good of the fan?
- 7:11Speaker 5: Yes, right, yes, let Jordan Woods have her bag.
- 7:14Speaker 3: One percent agree with you? Go ahead.
- 7:16Speaker 7: I'm going to push back on this one because I
- 7:18Speaker 7: have a feeling that if Taylor had the option of
- 7:20Speaker 7: going and inconvenienced a thousand other people, ten thousand other people,
- 7:25Speaker 7: he's like, no, I'm going to the game.
- 7:27Speaker 8: No.
- 7:27Speaker 3: Shut well.
- 7:28Speaker 6: First off, First off, the ticket prices to get into
- 7:31Speaker 6: Madison Square Garden. Yeah, ridiculous, Yeah, ridiculous. Already that the
- 7:36Speaker 6: normal fans are getting priced out. So what do they have.
- 7:39Speaker 6: They have these organic gatherings outside where at first the
- 7:43Speaker 6: NYPD said, you guys can't do these, they're getting too rowdy,
- 7:46Speaker 6: and the fans said, hey, we'll scale these back a little,
- 7:49Speaker 6: we won't get as rowdy. We want to gather right
- 7:51Speaker 6: outside the arena, And since then there's been no problems.
- 7:56Speaker 6: If me going to a game was going to inconvenience
- 8:00Speaker 6: tens of thousands of people of my favorite team, there's
- 8:05Speaker 6: zero chance I would go to that game and being
- 8:07Speaker 6: inconvenience to everybody.
- 8:08Speaker 3: Yeah, we're all calling bs on that.
- 8:10Speaker 4: While you were talking there, Taylor, Stu Gattz vehemently pointed
- 8:13Speaker 4: at the TV, super excited.
- 8:15Speaker 3: Because Jeremy Lynn was on it.
- 8:18Speaker 4: He said, he said earlier when we saw Al Harrington
- 8:23Speaker 4: on the TV that, man, they're just pulling Knicks from anywhere.
- 8:26Speaker 4: If you spent a minute on a Knicks team, you
- 8:27Speaker 4: are getting national TV time today.
- 8:29Speaker 3: When you think of Al Harrington, which team do you
- 8:31Speaker 3: think of? Me?
- 8:33Speaker 1: So, Colin, No, because everyone's trying to get on the
- 8:35Speaker 1: Knicks bandwagon and find someone who's close to the Knicks
- 8:38Speaker 1: or played for a minute for the New York Knicks.
- 8:40Speaker 3: He had Al Harrington. I mean Jeremy Lynn, I understand.
- 8:43Speaker 1: And by the way, you'll never see a Jeremy Lynn
- 8:44Speaker 1: highlight again if the Knicks pull this off.
- 8:47Speaker 3: Lyn, sanity done, Taylor.
- 8:49Speaker 1: But I do love how people in the media are
- 8:52Speaker 1: trying to because they want to be a part of
- 8:54Speaker 1: this great story, the New York Knicks, this lovable underdog
- 8:57Speaker 1: from the biggest market in the country. They are willing
- 9:01Speaker 1: to put on anyone, and I mean anyone who had
- 9:04Speaker 1: a cup of coffee with a New York Knick, which is.
- 9:06Speaker 3: What he had.
- 9:07Speaker 4: He had two seasons with the Knicks. He had six
- 9:09Speaker 4: seasons to start his career with Indiana. He is definitely
- 9:12Speaker 4: a pacer before he's a Nick.
- 9:14Speaker 6: So for me, Stu, the line is pretty simple. If
- 9:18Speaker 6: you played for the Knicks, I think of you as
- 9:20Speaker 6: a Nick. I think so so Channing Fry, Zach Randolphe,
- 9:25Speaker 6: Nate Robinson, Daniel Gallinari Wilson, Chandler, Chris Douhan, Tracy. You
- 9:30Speaker 6: could even stretch You could stretch it out even further
- 9:33Speaker 6: Stevie franchise if.
- 9:35Speaker 3: You spent once, Yes, I got it once. A Nick.
- 9:38Speaker 3: Oh he's a Nick. I get what you're saying.
- 9:39Speaker 6: Yes, Katino Mobley got traded to the Knicks and never
- 9:42Speaker 6: played a game because he had a pre uh heart
- 9:45Speaker 6: condition that got uh seen in his physical so he
- 9:49Speaker 6: he never even dressed for the Knicks. Katino Mobley to me,
- 9:52Speaker 6: nick legend.
- 9:53Speaker 3: Yeah if they lose though, he's not right. I mean.
- 9:59Speaker 1: He's all over the place it Stevie franchise. While you're
- 10:02Speaker 1: at it, Yeah, where are you watching the game tonight?
- 10:03Speaker 1: Tell you wanted to go to New York City because
- 10:05Speaker 1: you wanted to be around the city, around the Mecca.
- 10:08Speaker 1: And I understand why because it's fun right now in Manhattan?
- 10:11Speaker 3: Are you Are you going to be near the game
- 10:13Speaker 3: anywhere near the game tonight?
- 10:16Speaker 6: I'm going to be in Manhattan at a bar with
- 10:18Speaker 6: friends at some version of a watch party. My only
- 10:21Speaker 6: requirement that I asked everybody is can you check with
- 10:24Speaker 6: the bar if they have game audio. I don't need
- 10:26Speaker 6: a DJ spinning ones and tubes on the track.
- 10:29Speaker 3: I need it.
- 10:30Speaker 6: I need to hear Mike Breen Taylor.
- 10:32Speaker 5: But during your commercials though, right then you hit the music.
- 10:35Speaker 4: I love the bars that are so good on their timing,
- 10:38Speaker 4: where as soon as the commercial comes on, it's just
- 10:41Speaker 4: a banger.
- 10:41Speaker 9: Ye.
- 10:43Speaker 6: So that's the key is I need to see proof
- 10:46Speaker 6: of concept and that you have this timing down, because
- 10:50Speaker 6: if I'm trusting you and I'm hearing you know some
- 10:54Speaker 6: music back where we're deep into this chorus and the
- 10:57Speaker 6: game is very clearly on and Mike Brown is being
- 11:00Speaker 6: interviewed between quarters. Yeah, I want to hear what Mike
- 11:02Speaker 6: Brown is saying. Okay, what about halftime? Yeah, I don't
- 11:06Speaker 6: need to hear.
- 11:07Speaker 5: The half Yeah, same halftime, you just have a little
- 11:09Speaker 5: dance party.
- 11:09Speaker 1: But how do you guys feel about this proof of concept? Like,
- 11:11Speaker 1: what are you gonna do? You're gonna walk in and
- 11:13Speaker 1: if during the first commercial break they don't have the
- 11:15Speaker 1: timing down, you're gonna walk out and go somewhere else.
- 11:18Speaker 6: I mean, So I'm gonna try to get there at
- 11:20Speaker 6: six and have them play a game and say, pretend
- 11:23Speaker 6: this is the game.
- 11:24Speaker 5: Can we do a dress forhearsl really quick?
- 11:25Speaker 4: Guys, throw on some soccer, maybe afternoon baseball, Yeah, and
- 11:29Speaker 4: then just hit the music during.
- 11:30Speaker 3: The commercy hey commercial break music.
- 11:33Speaker 1: Go okay, So you want them to do a game
- 11:35Speaker 1: before the game, perhaps they'll put on Game two. You
- 11:37Speaker 1: see how they take it into break. You see if
- 11:39Speaker 1: the music goes during a time out, you're basically asking
- 11:42Speaker 1: them to show off, to prove to you before the
- 11:45Speaker 1: game that their bar is worthy of you watching the
- 11:48Speaker 1: game in tonight.
- 11:49Speaker 6: Yeah, and this is this is the biggest game in
- 11:51Speaker 6: New York sports history right now. This is the biggest
- 11:54Speaker 6: night in a lot of these bars history. But I
- 11:57Speaker 6: do need them to cater to meet tonight.
- 11:58Speaker 1: Yes, okay, we have we can observations coming up here
- 12:03Speaker 1: just a second, Dan.
- 12:04Speaker 3: You had something.
- 12:05Speaker 8: Yeah, dude, guys, you may want to break soon. We
- 12:08Speaker 8: may be getting Greg Kite on who played two games
- 12:10Speaker 8: for the Knicks in nineteen ninety five.
- 12:12Speaker 3: We're efforting right now, Kite.
- 12:15Speaker 8: So yeah, so we may get Greg kite It's fifty
- 12:18Speaker 8: to fifty right now. But in the two games he
- 12:20Speaker 8: played in nineteen ninety five, why not have a Knicks
- 12:23Speaker 8: legend on, you know, prior to Game three?
- 12:25Speaker 1: Yes, of course everyone else is and has El Harrington,
- 12:27Speaker 1: Jeremy Lynn.
- 12:28Speaker 3: It's unbelievable.
- 12:29Speaker 6: Yeah, Taylor, So the jersey I'm actually wearing today is
- 12:33Speaker 6: it's ah Antonio mcdice jersey when he played on the Knicks.
- 12:37Speaker 3: Nick legend.
- 12:38Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, of course, a Nick legend. But he kind
- 12:41Speaker 6: of sums up the Nick experience in between the times
- 12:45Speaker 6: between finals appearances where he's coming off an All Star appearance.
- 12:50Speaker 6: He barely plays games on the Knicks because of a
- 12:52Speaker 6: knee injury. I texted Arieljwanistu and said outfit of the day,
- 12:57Speaker 6: and he said, get that jersey off your box. We
- 13:00Speaker 6: don't need any.
- 13:02Speaker 1: No one is more insane about the next than Ariel.
- 13:05Speaker 1: One of you joined us on a Saturday. He's taking
- 13:08Speaker 1: both his kids to the game tonight, and I'm excited
- 13:10Speaker 1: for him. I'm excited for Mike Breen. What an opportunity
- 13:13Speaker 1: for Breen. Listen, He's going to be down the middle
- 13:15Speaker 1: because he's a professional and maybe the best broadcaster we've
- 13:18Speaker 1: ever seen. But what a special night for Mike Breen
- 13:21Speaker 1: walking into that building and calling the first NBA Finals
- 13:25Speaker 1: game in that building since ninety nine and doing so
- 13:28Speaker 1: with a two nothing serious lead.
- 13:30Speaker 5: By the way, if we don't get Greg Kite as
- 13:34Speaker 5: Dan still effort, still efforting, we might you never know,
- 13:37Speaker 5: you know, back up, we can get Felton Spencer.
- 13:40Speaker 1: Oh this guy, we get Felton Spencer. Tell Greg to
- 13:42Speaker 1: fly a kite? I mean, how about that?
- 13:45Speaker 6: What about Raymond?
- 13:45Speaker 3: Felon's a more difficult get.
- 13:49Speaker 2: Be sure to catch live editions of Stu Godson Company
- 13:52Speaker 2: Live weekday said three pm Eastern twelve pm Pacific on
- 13:56Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.
- 14:01Speaker 1: Jonathan Macree, the dean of Knick's Film School, is going
- 14:03Speaker 1: to join us at around four twenty. It is a
- 14:07Speaker 1: mount rushmore Monday. We stick to the format on this show.
- 14:10Speaker 1: If it's a Monday and we're here doing the show.
- 14:13Speaker 1: We are doing a Mount Rushmore Monday. Izzy was the
- 14:15Speaker 1: winner last week. And this is precisely why Israel should
- 14:18Speaker 1: never be the winner, because, well, I'll let you introduce
- 14:22Speaker 1: what the Mount Rushmore topic is today because we have
- 14:24Speaker 1: a lot of questions about it. We never carried so
- 14:27Speaker 1: many yet we never do a segment before the Mount Rushmore.
- 14:31Speaker 1: But this begs the segment because we have so many questions,
- 14:33Speaker 1: So go ahead, is it okay?
- 14:34Speaker 4: So yes, Taylor and I had a little bit of
- 14:37Speaker 4: a text exchange going in where he wanted to say
- 14:40Speaker 4: one thing specifically, and I just wanted to call it
- 14:42Speaker 4: the Mount Rushmore of Texas legends, Texas sports legends, and
- 14:47Speaker 4: then we just settled on, Okay, professional sports, fine, if
- 14:50Speaker 4: you have to be a professional, So not like some
- 14:52Speaker 4: high school legend or somebody like I don't know, Kevin
- 14:55Speaker 4: Durant who only played college there or Ricky Williams who
- 14:57Speaker 4: played college there. I don't think that counts a pro
- 15:01Speaker 4: Texas legend. So it can be an individual sport, right,
- 15:05Speaker 4: but you're from Texas.
- 15:06Speaker 1: Can it be an individual who was from Texas but
- 15:09Speaker 1: played elsewhere in a team sport?
- 15:12Speaker 3: No, it cannot be. So it cannot be Patrick Mahomes.
- 15:15Speaker 4: No, if it's a team sport, you have to have
- 15:16Speaker 4: played in Texas. If it's an individual sport which you're
- 15:19Speaker 4: only representing yourself, okay, then you have to be from Texas.
- 15:22Speaker 3: Go ahead, mikey Okay.
- 15:24Speaker 7: So here's my question. This might be more of a
- 15:26Speaker 7: Dan Byer question than an easy question. Are we weighing
- 15:30Speaker 7: how they did in while they were in Texas?
- 15:33Speaker 3: Well?
- 15:33Speaker 4: I mean, you wouldn't really be a legend of Texas
- 15:36Speaker 4: if you won three championship chips with the Lakers and
- 15:39Speaker 4: then ended your career with the Rockets for a season, Right,
- 15:42Speaker 4: that doesn't really count.
- 15:43Speaker 3: Well, don't you think Mahomes is a Texas legend?
- 15:45Speaker 1: He was born in Texas, went to college in Texas,
- 15:48Speaker 1: won Super Bowls in Kansas City.
- 15:49Speaker 4: But if you remember what we're saying is if it's
- 15:52Speaker 4: a team sport, you have to have played there. You're
- 15:54Speaker 4: not a Texas legend as part of a team for
- 15:56Speaker 4: another state.
- 15:57Speaker 3: Okay.
- 15:57Speaker 4: And the reason we're doing this is counter of programming
- 15:59Speaker 4: the Nicks. I'm so tired of all this New York talk.
- 16:01Speaker 4: I would like to get the state of Texas some love.
- 16:03Speaker 3: He has Nick fatigue.
- 16:04Speaker 1: We'll get plenty of knicks with Jonathan Macrey, the dean
- 16:07Speaker 1: of Knick's Film school coming up after the mount rushmore
- 16:10Speaker 1: here on a Monday. Any other follow up questions. I'm confused.
- 16:14Speaker 1: I have a thousand names written down on a piece
- 16:16Speaker 1: of paper right here, literally a thousand names, because there's
- 16:18Speaker 1: so many teams in Texas.
- 16:20Speaker 7: I mean, you know what, at this point, I'm just
- 16:22Speaker 7: gonna I made my big board. I'm gonna stick to it,
- 16:24Speaker 7: and if it's not what Dan Byer wants, then that's
- 16:27Speaker 7: that's how I'll.
- 16:28Speaker 3: Play the game.
- 16:28Speaker 7: I hope he's got a Golden ticket ready, because I
- 16:31Speaker 7: always like when that comes into play, right, But yeah,
- 16:34Speaker 7: I think I'm just gonna. I'm gonna I'm gonna argue
- 16:36Speaker 7: anybody that you guys disagree with.
- 16:38Speaker 6: Yep.
- 16:39Speaker 1: The fact that we're all catering to Dan Byer is
- 16:41Speaker 1: the problem with this segment in the first place. I mean,
- 16:44Speaker 1: because really it should be all Dallas Cowboys, and yet
- 16:46Speaker 1: I am looking for the Golden Goose or whatever the
- 16:48Speaker 1: hell it is that he calls it, and I have
- 16:50Speaker 1: an idea of who it is and what it might be.
- 16:55Speaker 3: There are so many teams and so many people to
- 16:57Speaker 3: choose from. Go ahead.
- 16:59Speaker 8: I think it is fair to say you don't have
- 17:01Speaker 8: to cater to me. I feel like I try to
- 17:03Speaker 8: be objective as much as I can in this scenario.
- 17:08Speaker 3: Yes, in all of these drafts. So you may trying
- 17:14Speaker 3: to be.
- 17:14Speaker 6: A jetame stance every Mount Rushmore Monday. I'm not pandering
- 17:18Speaker 6: to Dan, I'm not. I'm not dandering if I lose
- 17:21Speaker 6: the Mount Rushmore Monday, I lose the Mount Rushmore Monday.
- 17:24Speaker 6: I'm not pandering think.
- 17:25Speaker 3: Taylor as well for the most part too, I know.
- 17:29Speaker 1: But listen, you're gonna learn why you should never allow
- 17:31Speaker 1: Israel good Eras to win one.
- 17:33Speaker 3: Yeah, that's on you, Dan Bern.
- 17:36Speaker 4: I believe I picked a very simple topic. Ridiculous this
- 17:40Speaker 4: is I think this is a good topic.
- 17:41Speaker 5: Thank you.
- 17:42Speaker 1: Yeah, but what you're saying, Taylor is you're gonna put
- 17:44Speaker 1: your best four forward regardless and let the chips fall
- 17:47Speaker 1: where they may.
- 17:48Speaker 3: Is that what you're saying?
- 17:50Speaker 6: Yeah, I would much rather lose than do what you
- 17:53Speaker 6: guys do. You guys are like looking up Dan Byron
- 17:56Speaker 6: to you, Like, has Dan Byer ever talked about this
- 17:59Speaker 6: Houston Rocket ever? To try to gain favor with him.
- 18:02Speaker 1: No, you're reading this the Houston Rocket. Yeah, you're reading
- 18:05Speaker 1: this incorrectly. What I'm trying to do is never have
- 18:07Speaker 1: easy choose the topic again.
- 18:09Speaker 8: There's a good chance Easy could be the O two
- 18:11Speaker 8: Angels like that that that year that was it magical
- 18:14Speaker 8: run and then never to see him again.
- 18:17Speaker 3: Well we'll see, I mean, yeah, we'll see.
- 18:19Speaker 1: You have the Rangers, you have the Astros, you have
- 18:22Speaker 1: too many teams, you have the Mavericks. Yeah, I just
- 18:24Speaker 1: want to make sure we have all the teams here.
- 18:26Speaker 1: How many professional teams does Texas have? You have the Cowboys,
- 18:30Speaker 1: you have the Texans, you have Andre Johnson, you have
- 18:33Speaker 1: that shop.
- 18:34Speaker 3: I mean, there's so many things, so many players to
- 18:36Speaker 3: choose from.
- 18:37Speaker 5: Andrey Johnson is not on the Dallas Stars.
- 18:40Speaker 3: I forgot about the Dallas Stars. And Mike Madonna.
- 18:43Speaker 4: I mean you mentioned my one hockey sious.
- 18:47Speaker 5: Dude, why are we doing this before we're doing.
- 18:49Speaker 3: This because we have questions we were unclear.
- 18:52Speaker 7: You were probably the worst person to be in a
- 18:55Speaker 7: fantasy draft with.
- 18:56Speaker 3: You're sitting there going, oh my god, this guy's gonna
- 18:58Speaker 3: fall to me.
- 18:58Speaker 7: This guy's and Stud's like, hey, how come nobody took
- 19:01Speaker 7: this guy yet, yeah, and.
- 19:02Speaker 3: That I oh, I guess I'll take it right.
- 19:04Speaker 1: Everyone hates when someone blurts out the name that everyone
- 19:06Speaker 1: watchs he's still on the board, and the guy realizes
- 19:08Speaker 1: he's still on the board and he takes up.
- 19:10Speaker 4: Stu's the guy who in the second round will yell
- 19:12Speaker 4: out a tight end's name, and then everybody starts the
- 19:14Speaker 4: tight end run because they think that guy's going to get.
- 19:16Speaker 3: Up at Jason Witten.
- 19:18Speaker 1: I mean, there's so many places you can go at,
- 19:20Speaker 1: too Tall Jones, Tony dor sat Emmitt Smith.
- 19:23Speaker 3: This is impossible.
- 19:25Speaker 5: So far, your big board sounds like it sucks.
- 19:28Speaker 3: Well, that depends on whether or not Dan likes it.
- 19:32Speaker 3: What it's all about. I mean, I'm.
- 19:35Speaker 1: Thinking about Dirk. I'm thinking about I just I can't
- 19:37Speaker 1: stop thinking Luca.
- 19:39Speaker 6: You're welcome.
- 19:41Speaker 1: I needed to be I needed to be distracted from
- 19:44Speaker 1: the next that he gave it to me.
- 19:45Speaker 2: Be sure to catch live editions of Stu Gottson Company
- 19:49Speaker 2: Live Weekday, said three pm Eastern, twelve pm Pacific.
- 19:55Speaker 1: It is a mount rushmore Monday here on stut Gottson Company.
- 19:59Speaker 1: I now have two pays pages of names filled out
- 20:01Speaker 1: two entire pages of names of Texas sports legends, since
- 20:06Speaker 1: that is today's Mount Rushmore. Jonathan Mack where you get
- 20:09Speaker 1: to join us in about fifteen minutes. He's the dean
- 20:12Speaker 1: of Knick's Film School. I'll get to some sound from
- 20:15Speaker 1: him in a second. But first, Taylor wanted to be
- 20:17Speaker 1: up in New York so we could feel the buzz. Taylor,
- 20:20Speaker 1: is there an update there from New York City?
- 20:23Speaker 6: Yeah, as a four pm. So right now, Midtown Manhattan
- 20:26Speaker 6: is banning all pedestrian traffic near Madison Square Guardian. So
- 20:31Speaker 6: even if I wanted to get close to Madison Square Garden,
- 20:33Speaker 6: I could not come within a five block radius.
- 20:36Speaker 7: It looks like at least one of the transportation hubs
- 20:40Speaker 7: isn't directly underneath Madison Square Guarden.
- 20:42Speaker 1: Yes, but Mikey, he wanted to be close to the
- 20:45Speaker 1: Mecca to feel the buzz, to feel the people pouring
- 20:47Speaker 1: out win or lose, and he can't it a five
- 20:51Speaker 1: to six block radius of the Mecca right now because
- 20:55Speaker 1: not a block all of Midtown Manhattan has been shut down.
- 21:00Speaker 3: That's crazy.
- 21:01Speaker 5: The city that never sleeps. What are you gonna do?
- 21:02Speaker 4: Go take a nap because there's nothing to do in
- 21:04Speaker 4: midtown right now, it's all shut down.
- 21:06Speaker 1: Yes, we'll get to the Mount Rushmore here in just
- 21:08Speaker 1: a second, I mentioned Jonathan Macree you going to join us,
- 21:11Speaker 1: the dean of Knick's Film School, and I feel like,
- 21:14Speaker 1: along with Ariel Hawani, he is very representative of all
- 21:18Speaker 1: Nick fans and what they're going through right now. Here's
- 21:20Speaker 1: a bit of work here from our friend Jonathan Macree
- 21:23Speaker 1: as he did a watch along for the New York Knicks.
- 21:29Speaker 3: Brusson on the Drive, Spence under me up, that's what
- 21:38Speaker 3: I want.
- 21:40Speaker 5: He should have warned you to cover your ears.
- 21:42Speaker 3: It's how I want Breed to call the game. I
- 21:47Speaker 3: thought that was Breed.
- 21:50Speaker 1: Let's hear it was perfectly time before we get to
- 21:54Speaker 1: the Mount Rushmore. This man is going to be He's
- 21:57Speaker 1: gonna be joining us in about twelve minutes.
- 22:01Speaker 3: Brunson on the Drive, Spiens underneath.
- 22:10Speaker 1: Of all the voices in that sound, if I told
- 22:12Speaker 1: you you could only have one on the show today,
- 22:14Speaker 1: which one would you want? And we've had Breen on
- 22:17Speaker 1: the show plenty, but which one would you want?
- 22:19Speaker 4: I mean, I'll take Green. This guy keeps making me
- 22:21Speaker 4: jump out of my chair.
- 22:24Speaker 3: Let's get to the Mount Rushmore Monday. Give me the imaging. Please.
- 22:29Speaker 2: Hey you there, Yeah, you the guy with the spreadsheet
- 22:33Speaker 2: pretending to work.
- 22:35Speaker 3: Do you find yourself.
- 22:36Speaker 2: Needing up, picking up as you're dragging and your cubicles
- 22:40Speaker 2: start the week? Are you ready to put the sports
- 22:44Speaker 2: back in sports talk? Well, then you're in luck because
- 22:49Speaker 2: every Monday we climb a mountain. We talked the legends
- 22:53Speaker 2: and we argue about things.
- 22:57Speaker 3: The truth you can't handle, the truth.
- 22:59Speaker 2: That as do not matter and are completely subjective.
- 23:03Speaker 3: This is Mount Rushmore Monday, Monday Monday. It is about
- 23:09Speaker 3: Rushmore Monday.
- 23:11Speaker 1: Is he was the winner last week, therefore he chooses
- 23:13Speaker 1: the topic for this week.
- 23:14Speaker 3: He has chosen Texas sports legends.
- 23:17Speaker 4: We're gonna stick to pros sports or just non college
- 23:20Speaker 4: or high school beyond college or high school sports. But yeah,
- 23:24Speaker 4: as a counter programming to all the New York Knicks programming.
- 23:26Speaker 4: And it's going on today, like Al Harrington on whatever
- 23:29Speaker 4: show that is First Things.
- 23:30Speaker 3: First, go ahead.
- 23:33Speaker 6: It's players that played professionally in Texas. Like Guzzi just mentioned,
- 23:37Speaker 6: the draft order has been randomized. Stu Gotts with the
- 23:40Speaker 6: first pick, then I'm picking two, Mikey's picking three is
- 23:44Speaker 6: he's picking four, and then it snakes back around.
- 23:47Speaker 4: Just to be clear, individual sports still, like Vallid, you
- 23:50Speaker 4: could still choose individual sports athletes.
- 23:52Speaker 1: So if they were born in the state of Texas
- 23:55Speaker 1: but chose an individual sport, not a team sport.
- 23:58Speaker 5: Then they're representing Texas individually.
- 24:00Speaker 3: Okay, that count, got it? All right? So I have
- 24:02Speaker 3: the first pick here, all right? You sift through my
- 24:06Speaker 3: three and.
- 24:06Speaker 4: A half said, he wrote down thousands of names, and
- 24:09Speaker 4: you don't even have it one like an, I guess
- 24:10Speaker 4: number one.
- 24:11Speaker 3: I circled one.
- 24:12Speaker 1: Somewhere on one the one that I circled, I found
- 24:15Speaker 1: the one that I circled.
- 24:16Speaker 3: Okay.
- 24:18Speaker 1: I feel like when you talk about Texas, by the way,
- 24:20Speaker 1: you have to say the great state of Texas.
- 24:22Speaker 3: Don't you. Okay?
- 24:23Speaker 5: I mean a few says though, but put.
- 24:24Speaker 1: It on the pole tailor when you talk about Texas,
- 24:26Speaker 1: do you have to call it the great state of Texas.
- 24:29Speaker 5: I think that's going to come back seventy percent?
- 24:30Speaker 3: Now, all right?
- 24:34Speaker 1: This guy was born in Texas but did not do
- 24:37Speaker 1: all of his winning. In fact, I'm not certain he
- 24:39Speaker 1: ever won in the state of Texas. But he's done
- 24:41Speaker 1: a lot of winning. Plus it's in Dan Byer's wheelhouse. No, boy,
- 24:45Speaker 1: I am going with Scottie Scheffler. Wow, yes, Scottie. Pick
- 24:50Speaker 1: is Scottie Scheffler.
- 24:53Speaker 3: Two guys.
- 24:54Speaker 1: I'm so happy listening a lot of directions I could
- 24:57Speaker 1: have went, and I decided to go in Dan's direction.
- 24:59Speaker 1: And Dan's direction is always golf. When he's not here,
- 25:02Speaker 1: he's golfing. And I'm going Scottie Scheffler.
- 25:04Speaker 4: How about that other golfers from Texas who might have
- 25:06Speaker 4: been better than Sheffer?
- 25:08Speaker 3: But hey, I'm not so well.
- 25:10Speaker 4: Where's Tiger from Texas?
- 25:13Speaker 3: Texas?
- 25:14Speaker 10: Right?
- 25:15Speaker 6: So with the second pick, Yeah, he got his start
- 25:18Speaker 6: in Dallas twenty eighteen to twenty twenty two, I'm picking
- 25:21Speaker 6: Jalen Brunson.
- 25:22Speaker 4: Oh my lord, Oh my lord, I mean, how do
- 25:26Speaker 4: you do that?
- 25:27Speaker 5: His best year is not trying to win, is not
- 25:29Speaker 5: trying to win?
- 25:30Speaker 3: Thank you.
- 25:31Speaker 10: I'm gonna take my one one because it's still on
- 25:34Speaker 10: the board. Give me the guy that embodies Texas on
- 25:36Speaker 10: the baseball field.
- 25:37Speaker 3: Give me Nolan Ryan. Wow, Ryan Express.
- 25:40Speaker 1: I mean, that's pretty good when you get your first
- 25:42Speaker 1: pick at number three, I mean, well done by you.
- 25:45Speaker 3: I'm just pandering to Dan during.
- 25:48Speaker 5: Dan I'd like to thank you for my back to
- 25:50Speaker 5: back wins. Oh for Iver, make a pick.
- 25:52Speaker 4: We'll see, because these nick drunk clowns have left the
- 25:58Speaker 4: two best possible players on the board. The first one
- 26:01Speaker 4: is the legend who has five rings, Tim duncan Oh,
- 26:06Speaker 4: Big Fundamental. And the second is the legend who has
- 26:10Speaker 4: three rings and is the all time leading rusher in football,
- 26:13Speaker 4: Emmitt Smith.
- 26:14Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 26:15Speaker 5: I mean, come on, you.
- 26:16Speaker 3: Guys, not sexy though, I mean, you gotta be honest.
- 26:18Speaker 4: With rings aren't sexy? That one here Stu Goatts's next book.
- 26:23Speaker 4: Rings aren't sexy.
- 26:25Speaker 1: I mean they're sexy. But Emmitt did it. You know
- 26:27Speaker 1: he was great. He was a great play. He's a
- 26:28Speaker 1: running only the.
- 26:29Speaker 5: Best running back, that's all.
- 26:32Speaker 1: That's all. Was who was your other one man? Was
- 26:37Speaker 1: he even the best from Texas? I mean, come on,
- 26:40Speaker 1: Mikey hero, I.
- 26:43Speaker 3: Mean, this draft is turning into a dream for me. Yeah,
- 26:46Speaker 3: so I'll take the dream. Gimme hakeem.
- 26:49Speaker 4: Wow, only three less championships than Tim Duncan, well, five.
- 26:54Speaker 1: Less when you consider Jordan took two years off and
- 26:56Speaker 1: Elijah want to know business winning those championships?
- 26:59Speaker 5: So rings aren't sexy?
- 27:00Speaker 8: So you also have to consider Elijah Wentz college days
- 27:04Speaker 8: at Houston.
- 27:05Speaker 4: And now you don't specifically, you don't consider whatever he
- 27:09Speaker 4: wants to consider where.
- 27:11Speaker 3: He also didn't win. I'll go ahead, Taylor, so.
- 27:15Speaker 6: With my second round pick, he was a rocket in
- 27:18Speaker 6: twenty eighteen, twenty nineteen, Carmelo Anthony.
- 27:21Speaker 5: Lors this guy, I love it.
- 27:23Speaker 3: I love what you're doing here. I mean keeping the
- 27:25Speaker 3: knicks in the conversation.
- 27:27Speaker 5: Counter program, Jens, you only a coke.
- 27:33Speaker 3: Two to you? S dude? Oh wow, wow, wow, I
- 27:37Speaker 3: can't believe. I'm buyer wants you to pick right.
- 27:39Speaker 1: Well, I'm hoping that, you know, I'm hoping Dan Bayer
- 27:42Speaker 1: is a big fan of the UH of cycling, because
- 27:46Speaker 1: I am going to go with Lance Armstrong Tour de France.
- 27:49Speaker 1: I mean that guy is also really good. Say what
- 27:51Speaker 1: do you want about Lance Armstrong?
- 27:53Speaker 3: Thank you, fantastic, thank you.
- 27:55Speaker 1: I mean, I'm sitting here with Scottie Scheffler or Lance Armstrong.
- 27:58Speaker 4: What you got and I think you could well something
- 28:01Speaker 4: better than to go again. But I think he also
- 28:02Speaker 4: could have gotten Lance Armstrong with your fourth pick.
- 28:04Speaker 3: Maybe perhaps I'm gonna go.
- 28:07Speaker 1: I'm staying individual sports here, I mean one of the
- 28:09Speaker 1: greatest boxers of all time, good pick and the inventor
- 28:13Speaker 1: of a grill that made him more money than he
- 28:16Speaker 1: ever made boxing.
- 28:18Speaker 3: I'm going George Forman grill.
- 28:20Speaker 5: George Foreman.
- 28:21Speaker 1: It should have been Hulk Holgan's grill. I've told this
- 28:23Speaker 1: story a million times. They shared the same agent. The
- 28:26Speaker 1: agent called Hulk first, Hulk wasn't home. He then called
- 28:29Speaker 1: George Forman because he needed an answer. Forman said, yes,
- 28:32Speaker 1: the Forman grill, and Hulk got a blund drown, the
- 28:35Speaker 1: real American blender.
- 28:36Speaker 3: Yes. Yes, So I'm going George Forman.
- 28:39Speaker 5: And for the next nick, we have Taylor.
- 28:42Speaker 6: Let's see, my board is playing out exactly how I
- 28:44Speaker 6: want right now, Still got all my names still available.
- 28:48Speaker 6: He was a rocket in two thousand and four, Charles Oaklings.
- 28:52Speaker 3: He named his dog after him.
- 28:56Speaker 4: All right, congrats on fourth place, Taylor, Mikey.
- 29:01Speaker 3: I'm just gonna take Michael Urban the playmaker. Yeah, it's
- 29:06Speaker 3: on one of my pages here.
- 29:08Speaker 5: This one's tough because Wow, or have been over Achman.
- 29:10Speaker 3: That's crazy.
- 29:11Speaker 5: This one's tough because I don't want to go too
- 29:13Speaker 5: heavy on the triplets.
- 29:14Speaker 4: I don't want to get two out of three triplets
- 29:16Speaker 4: do I there's also you know what, my first pick
- 29:19Speaker 4: is going to be the individual athlete. And I know
- 29:24Speaker 4: this is going to make some people mad because technically,
- 29:26Speaker 4: I don't know if her sport was professional.
- 29:28Speaker 5: But Simone Biles, Oh wow, that's a good question.
- 29:33Speaker 3: Was her sport professional?
- 29:34Speaker 5: I mean she justaid we got paid after the Olympics. Yeah,
- 29:39Speaker 5: but you didn't get.
- 29:39Speaker 3: You got paid endorsements?
- 29:41Speaker 4: No, she got No, she got paid to do gymnastics
- 29:43Speaker 4: stuff like events and stuff after the Olympics.
- 29:47Speaker 6: I think the bigger question is Wikipedia say she was
- 29:49Speaker 6: born in Columbus, Ohio.
- 29:50Speaker 9: Oh yeah, yeah, Okay, we can eliminate her. You know what,
- 29:54Speaker 9: I'm not even going to look up my information. I
- 29:57Speaker 9: believe she's a Texan. But I can get rid of it.
- 29:59Speaker 9: If Taylor Taylor rules, that's fine, it's his game. Well, no,
- 30:02Speaker 9: it's your Mount Rushmore's my Mount Rushmore. But but by
- 30:04Speaker 9: my she was raised in Houston, Okay, raised, not born.
- 30:10Speaker 3: Okay?
- 30:10Speaker 6: So was?
- 30:11Speaker 5: I was born in New York?
- 30:13Speaker 3: Yeah?
- 30:13Speaker 5: I left when I was two years old to live

- 30:36Speaker 3: she's Matt shabb jj watt.
- 30:43Speaker 4: And then just because he played his entire career there

- 31:04Speaker 10: So I had I had a name circle to take
- 31:07Speaker 10: in this round, but I mean, how do I leave
- 31:10Speaker 10: David Robinson on the board right now?
- 31:12Speaker 6: So I I just can't do it. So I'm gonna
- 31:14Speaker 6: go ahead.
- 31:14Speaker 3: And take the apiral. Yeah, no one taking one.
- 31:16Speaker 7: D Huh, God's gonna be oh for winning championships.
- 31:24Speaker 3: Don't say that, I mean, seriously, don't do it. You're
- 31:27Speaker 3: doing that thing. I'm a confident Knicks.
- 31:29Speaker 4: Fan now, just the way I saw a path of
- 31:31Speaker 4: the Knicks, I see a path with his comeback for
- 31:33Speaker 4: the Spurs.
- 31:33Speaker 3: Jesus Christ Taylor. You're stick them out right.
- 31:36Speaker 6: So I have three names still left on my big
- 31:38Speaker 6: board here. Yeah, Charlie Ward, Amaris Stodamyer. But I think
- 31:44Speaker 6: I have to go with if he was a Spur
- 31:45Speaker 6: in twenty sixteen, one of my favorite basketball players of
- 31:49Speaker 6: all time, Florida Gator. I believe David Lee.
- 31:52Speaker 4: Wow, that's your best pick so far. Yes, you mean
- 31:55Speaker 4: I believe. Of course he was a Florida.
- 31:58Speaker 10: Thanks for leaving me to fight, is he so that? Uh,
- 32:01Speaker 10: we can take a different category next week.
- 32:04Speaker 3: Let's do athletes from the state of Ohio.
- 32:09Speaker 5: Still, you got your last pick?
- 32:10Speaker 3: All right? Oh? So many names, so many names quarterbacks left.
- 32:15Speaker 3: There's there's a.
- 32:16Speaker 1: Little Campbell, There's two tall Jones, there's I keep saying
- 32:19Speaker 1: names until Dan Perks Upriguez is on the board.
- 32:23Speaker 4: Yeah, and he's Mike Madonna, Deon Sanders like mcdona's a
- 32:26Speaker 4: good one.
- 32:26Speaker 5: Mary lou rettin if we're gonna go wow, wow.
- 32:30Speaker 3: Gymnastics, I'm gonna go wrestle it.
- 32:34Speaker 1: Maybe outside of Hulko, get the most famous wrestler of
- 32:38Speaker 1: all time, Stone Cold, Steve Austin.
- 32:41Speaker 3: How about are we doing Mount Rushmore of actors?
- 32:44Speaker 1: I mean, that's a pretty good a Mount Rushmore I
- 32:46Speaker 1: put together. I don't know if I'm gonna win. I'm
- 32:47Speaker 1: not certain I'm paying. I'm Dan during to Dan enough,
- 32:51Speaker 1: but I haven't like. I like my Mount Rushmore. I
- 32:54Speaker 1: think it's it's clever, it's good, and it's no team sports,
- 32:57Speaker 1: all individuals.
- 32:58Speaker 6: Okay, all right.
- 33:00Speaker 8: One thing I am certain, and I think we're all certain.
- 33:02Speaker 8: Taylor's in fourth. So Taylor is in fourth today. The
- 33:05Speaker 8: Golden Ti, yes there was in the Knicks. The golden
- 33:10Speaker 8: ticket was taken in the first round. It was Nolan Ryan.
- 33:13Speaker 8: It was not only with the Texas roots, but obviously
- 33:15Speaker 8: playing for the Astros and Rangers.
- 33:17Speaker 5: Is that one world?
- 33:20Speaker 3: When I think Texas, I learned Nolan Ryan.
- 33:23Speaker 8: I I had a couple of other honorable mentions that
- 33:27Speaker 8: could have curried favor. Stui were right there with Scotty
- 33:30Speaker 8: Scheffler also had Ben Crenshaw and Jordan Speith as as possibilities.
- 33:35Speaker 5: Ben Hogan.
- 33:37Speaker 8: Ben Hogan would have been this. Yeah, it would have
- 33:38Speaker 8: been great as well. I'm gonna I'm gonna say this,
- 33:42Speaker 8: Mikey's got the automatic top two spot for the the
- 33:46Speaker 8: Golden Ticket, so I got to settle three. I love
- 33:50Speaker 8: Stu's variety, So is he bad news for you? You're
- 33:52Speaker 8: a number three? The Biles born in Ohio really hurts.
- 33:56Speaker 8: And the winner of Mount Rushmore Monday on this June
- 33:59Speaker 8: eighth is Stu Gotts. I love the variety, and I
- 34:03Speaker 8: thought the Lance Armstrong pick was probably the best pick
- 34:05Speaker 8: of any of the sixteen.
- 34:07Speaker 6: Thank you.
- 34:08Speaker 4: Nobody would recognize the faces on his mountain and they'd
- 34:11Speaker 4: be like.
- 34:11Speaker 3: Is that Scottish? Shit? What is who is that? Is
- 34:14Speaker 3: that Scotty? Why is that three? Eighteen? Up? There?
- 34:17Speaker 5: Is that the number sixteen?
- 34:21Speaker 3: Come on?
- 34:22Speaker 5: I know because it's not sports, it's tactic.
- 34:23Speaker 3: But it's a fair point.
- 34:24Speaker 1: That is he brings up when you look up at
- 34:26Speaker 1: a Mount Rushmore and have to ask the person you're with, Hey,
- 34:28Speaker 1: is that Steve Austin?
- 34:30Speaker 5: Seriously?
- 34:31Speaker 6: What the hell's he doing there?
- 34:34Speaker 3: Dan?
- 34:35Speaker 5: Did I get defeated by a fact check?
- 34:38Speaker 4: If Taylor doesn't say anything, If Taylor doesn't say anything,
- 34:41Speaker 4: my Mount Rushmore is the clear winner.
- 34:43Speaker 3: I just don't look.
- 34:44Speaker 8: I get its professional sports, and I think he took
- 34:46Speaker 8: the top dogs. But I don't know. There's just Emmitt Smith.
- 34:52Speaker 8: There are a lot of cowboys we could have taken.
- 34:53Speaker 8: I just like the variety of Stew's.
- 34:55Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, thank you, Dan. Plus, he never wanted Itzy
- 34:58Speaker 3: to choose the topic.
- 34:59Speaker 5: Again, he's dandering, is what he's doing.
- 35:01Speaker 6: Dan, would I have won if I picked Jared Jeffers?
- 35:05Speaker 3: I should end.

- 35:28Speaker 1: All Right Now with thanks here to Jonathan Macree for
- 35:30Speaker 1: joining us on behalf of all Nick fans.
- 35:33Speaker 3: I cannot get enough of that guy. He is fantastic.
- 35:36Speaker 1: I am nervous headed into tonight's game. We have a
- 35:39Speaker 1: softball update. We have followed Taylor and is he's softball
- 35:42Speaker 1: team nearly as much as we have followed the New
- 35:45Speaker 1: York Knicks during this playoff run. We'll get to that
- 35:47Speaker 1: in a second, but quickly, Taylor. Who wins tonight? Nicks
- 35:50Speaker 1: or Spurs? Who wins tonight? Why am I asking you?
- 35:53Speaker 3: Go ahead?
- 35:53Speaker 6: Listen. They haven't given me a reason to doubt them
- 35:56Speaker 6: in thirteen games. Yeah, I'm not gonna start doubt in
- 35:59Speaker 6: them today. Nick and four, we're breaking out the brooms.
- 36:02Speaker 6: We're sweeping these bums. Send them back to san Antonio.
- 36:05Speaker 1: He's calling them bums. He's breaking out the brooms. He
- 36:07Speaker 1: had the Knicks in five. He is upgraded to Nixon four.
- 36:10Speaker 1: I have the Knickson four. If they win tonight, Nickson three,
- 36:13Speaker 1: the series is over. San Antonio leaves mikey A. We're
- 36:16Speaker 1: not certain if he's a Nick fan or not. He's
- 36:17Speaker 1: trying to Jinxaus. We don't know what's going on with him.
- 36:20Speaker 1: Mikey A, who wins the game tonight? I have not
- 36:23Speaker 1: been trying to drink so you.
- 36:24Speaker 7: I've been trying to reel you in, and I'm going
- 36:26Speaker 7: to continue to try and reel you in.
- 36:29Speaker 3: But no, I'm fully.
- 36:30Speaker 7: Invested right now, Knicks win it, Nicks sweep a Nixon
- 36:33Speaker 7: four all right.
- 36:34Speaker 3: I have the Knicks by thirty two points. Is he
- 36:35Speaker 3: who wins tonight?
- 36:36Speaker 4: I'm a fan of narratives, stories and longer series. I've
- 36:39Speaker 4: got them Spurs winning tonight.
- 36:42Speaker 3: Go ahead, Taylor.
- 36:44Speaker 6: I think part of it, too, is when you come
- 36:46Speaker 6: back to Madison Square Garden, you come back to New York.
- 36:48Speaker 6: I think the guys in the Knicks locker room are
- 36:50Speaker 6: looking around and thinking, I never want to step foot
- 36:53Speaker 6: in san Antonio again for the rest of for the
- 36:55Speaker 6: rest of this year. We can't go back to san Antonio.
- 36:59Speaker 6: I'm not going back to san Antonio.
- 37:00Speaker 1: Nixon for you can make the claim there are guys
- 37:02Speaker 1: way down on san Antonio's bench you also don't want
- 37:05Speaker 1: to go back to san Antonio.
- 37:06Speaker 3: I mean you could, you could make that claim.
- 37:08Speaker 1: I mean, I'm sure Victor wants to go, but yeah,
- 37:11Speaker 1: the guys way down on the bench who.
- 37:13Speaker 3: Don't play, they don't like san Antonio anyway. What is
- 37:15Speaker 3: going on?
- 37:16Speaker 1: Did you guys have a softball game over the weekend?
- 37:18Speaker 1: Do you have a playoff game?
- 37:19Speaker 3: Where are we in this league?
- 37:20Speaker 4: It's a very sad time, very sad potential anti climactic
- 37:25Speaker 4: ending two our season. Yes, the playoffs beginning tonight. Do
- 37:30Speaker 4: Taylor's in New York. Taylor's in New York. Ian's out
- 37:35Speaker 4: of town, which, by the way, are the two people
- 37:37Speaker 4: that we really joined this league for. With Taylor and
- 37:39Speaker 4: Ian they're both out of town. They're in the playoffs.
- 37:41Speaker 4: So yeah, sure as hell. No, I'm not gonna be there,
- 37:43Speaker 4: of course, and so are down. And you know, we
- 37:46Speaker 4: might have to potentially, you know, fill the roster with
- 37:50Speaker 4: illegal players who are technically on our roster.
- 37:52Speaker 3: Some ringers, huh, you know.
- 37:55Speaker 4: Not riggers, just people that kind of look like Taylor
- 37:58Speaker 4: or kind of look like me so that they don't
- 38:00Speaker 4: think we're bringing in other people.
- 38:02Speaker 3: And then we'll see what happens.
- 38:03Speaker 4: But it would be such a sad ending if, after
- 38:05Speaker 4: all this nonsense and after all that Taylor put.
- 38:08Speaker 5: Me through, Yeah, that we just have to forfeit in
- 38:10Speaker 5: the playoffs.
- 38:11Speaker 3: Yes, Andrew Jones is in New York. Therefore he cannot
- 38:14Speaker 3: be at his softball game tonight.
- 38:17Speaker 1: Speak for yourself. That is terrible. No one on the
- 38:19Speaker 1: team should show up. If the leaders aren't showing up,
- 38:21Speaker 1: why should they show.
- 38:22Speaker 3: Up, you know, right.
- 38:23Speaker 4: Well, our actual leader, our home run hitter, I believe,
- 38:26Speaker 4: is the one who's just said on the app. He's like, listen,
- 38:28Speaker 4: if we're not going to have enough, please to tell
- 38:29Speaker 4: me so I don't have to show up there.
- 38:30Speaker 1: Just imagine Michale Bridge is saying, eh, you know what,
- 38:33Speaker 1: Game three, not.
- 38:34Speaker 3: Gonna show up? I have a softball game. I mean,
- 38:38Speaker 3: Taylor would tear his he off.
- 38:42Speaker 6: Yeah, but I'm saying the World Cup should be waiting
- 38:45Speaker 6: for the Knicks right now. Softball is so far down
- 38:48Speaker 6: my list of priorities where Yes, I was in New
- 38:51Speaker 6: York and is He said, are you going to softball tonight?
- 38:52Speaker 6: And I said, shoot, that's fine.
- 38:54Speaker 3: Hey.
- 38:55Speaker 4: If we got the nine players and they win without us, Taylor,
- 38:57Speaker 4: you can never come back.
- 38:58Speaker 1: I have no doubt it's at the bottom of your
- 39:00Speaker 1: priority list. But imagine where it is for is he
- 39:03Speaker 1: considering the only reason he played was as a favor
- 39:05Speaker 1: to you?
- 39:07Speaker 6: Unbelievable.
- 39:08Speaker 3: I want my money back.
