- 0:00Speaker 1: Hello and welcome.
- 0:02Speaker 2: It's our numb burfall, our four ready to go on
- 0:09Speaker 2: this Monday, and we begin with the big story over
- 0:13Speaker 2: the weekend. Where are you at? On reports saying that
- 0:17Speaker 2: the Vikings are considering a push to make wide receiver
- 0:21Speaker 2: Justin Jefferson available. He can be yours if the price
- 0:25Speaker 2: is right via trade. We'll discuss that also the Jets
- 0:28Speaker 2: Zach Wilson believed to be a target of the Rams
- 0:32Speaker 2: as a backup quarterback behind Matthew Stafford. How much credence
- 0:36Speaker 2: do you give that report? And why? Why is Commanders
- 0:40Speaker 2: quarterback Sam Howe expected to draw trade interest in the
- 0:44Speaker 2: silly season. We'll talk about all of those stories and
- 0:47Speaker 2: many more right now, have a good Monday, good start
- 0:50Speaker 2: to your week. It is our number four here, it is.
- 0:56Speaker 3: Oh what's going on? Welcome in, Happy Thursday to you
- 1:01Speaker 3: as we bring it on home. We'll bring it on

- 1:28Speaker 3: it on Bosnia and h as.
- 1:30Speaker 1: I call them.
- 1:31Speaker 3: Bosnia and Herzegovina because every I mispronounce it, probably one
- 1:34Speaker 3: out of every three four times I try that thing.
- 1:38Speaker 3: But Bosnia went down. I call them the Adam Silver
- 1:41Speaker 3: of the soccer world. Here's my impression of Bosnia for
- 1:46Speaker 3: the first I don't know, sixty minutes or so, until
- 1:49Speaker 3: Ball again got a red card and was booted from
- 1:52Speaker 3: the game. Here's Bosnia the first sixty minutes of the
- 1:55Speaker 3: match or so. We should try to be aggressive. But
- 2:02Speaker 3: let's think this thing through. Let's think about it. Let's
- 2:06Speaker 3: let's consider what's going on here, Let's let's think about
- 2:09Speaker 3: the ramifications, let's consider let's consider everything. Let's let's rework.
- 2:15Speaker 3: Let's dot our eyes, let's cross our t's. Let's hmm,
- 2:19Speaker 3: let's think about where this is headed. They're not doing anything.
- 2:22Speaker 3: That's Bosnia. Bosnia played against the US men's national team.
- 2:26Speaker 3: They were so passive, they were so reluctant to be
- 2:31Speaker 3: aggressive whatsoever. But it took a bad red card with
- 2:36Speaker 3: Ball again getting booted from the game to uh ignite
- 2:40Speaker 3: Bosnia and they got They got more aggressive than they were.
- 2:43Speaker 1: They still weren't very aggressive.
- 2:45Speaker 3: And UH didn't have that many chances, and UH, Team
- 2:50Speaker 3: USA ended up winning that game, So I give them credit.
- 2:53Speaker 3: I thought Team USA answered the bell when they were
- 2:56Speaker 3: down a man.
- 2:57Speaker 1: That's crazy. Man, I still look, man, I try to equate.
- 3:03Speaker 3: If you equate, like, put it this way, if you
- 3:07Speaker 3: try to do a comparison between basketball and soccer, it
- 3:10Speaker 3: just wouldn't work. If you're talking about soccer and a
- 3:13Speaker 3: red card comes out, Balligin's out of the game, US
- 3:16Speaker 3: just a man down. You can't do the same comparison
- 3:20Speaker 3: with basketball. Let's say you know Wemby had the elbow
- 3:24Speaker 3: to nas Reed, remember that in the Western Conference playoffs
- 3:28Speaker 3: he's ejected. It'd be as if you just can't bring
- 3:31Speaker 3: in anybody else you got four guys on the court.
- 3:33Speaker 3: It wouldn't work in basketball, it would work in football.
- 3:36Speaker 3: That's a legitimate comparison because it still is eleven on eleven.
- 3:41Speaker 3: It's not perfect because the nature of the sports, the positions.
- 3:45Speaker 1: That you play. I don't know what you could make
- 3:47Speaker 1: it to do a legitimate comparison.
- 3:49Speaker 3: But if you lost any player on either side of
- 3:54Speaker 3: the ball in football, there's just a personal foul penalty.
- 3:59Speaker 3: We got fifty automatic disqualification and you can't bring in
- 4:03Speaker 3: a replacement.
- 4:06Speaker 1: What that's insanity right there.
- 4:09Speaker 3: Man, Now you don't have a left guard, You're just
- 4:11Speaker 3: gonna have to do without a left guard. I guess
- 4:14Speaker 3: you don't have a you don't have a strong safety.
- 4:17Speaker 3: You're gonna have to do without a strong safety. That's
- 4:19Speaker 3: insanity right there. But that's again, that's a sport of soccer.
- 4:23Speaker 3: And I think the red card is way too punitive.
- 4:27Speaker 3: I'll put it this way. It should be egregious if
- 4:34Speaker 3: the punishment is that significant. You're kicked out of the game,
- 4:38Speaker 3: your team can't bring in another guy, and you're also
- 4:43Speaker 3: suspended for the following game. Like it's gotta be I
- 4:47Speaker 3: need to see the replay and I need to see
- 4:50Speaker 3: you headbutt some unsuspecting guy in a different colored uniform
- 4:55Speaker 3: in the forehead, and.
- 4:56Speaker 1: It's just like, whoa dude, that's not even soccer.
- 4:58Speaker 4: What?
- 4:59Speaker 5: Oh?
- 5:00Speaker 3: Absolutely, red card? What ball again? Did He's just chasing
- 5:04Speaker 3: down a loose ball. There's an accident. He accidentally cleaned
- 5:09Speaker 3: a guy pretty good, right, It got him in the
- 5:12Speaker 3: back of the achilles really and stepped on his foot slightly.
- 5:17Speaker 3: He's just challenging for the ball, going for the ball,
- 5:21Speaker 3: total mistake, nothing malicious.
- 5:23Speaker 1: No intent. I just don't think that's a red card.
- 5:27Speaker 3: And he's gone for the next game against Belgium on Monday.
- 5:31Speaker 1: That's a big deal. Big deal.
- 5:34Speaker 3: So as a tough break for Team USA. And it's
- 5:37Speaker 3: one thing if it's a legitimate call. That was not
- 5:39Speaker 3: a legitimate call, that's a tough one. That is a
- 5:42Speaker 3: tough pill to swallow right there. But it's a good
- 5:46Speaker 3: segue because I want to give props. There was something
- 5:49Speaker 3: that I actually loved related to soccer and it's Alexi Lawless.
- 5:55Speaker 1: So I caught this on x SO. There's this guy, Zach.
- 6:00Speaker 3: Joe, I believe, the chief editor of Break the Lines,
- 6:04Speaker 3: and so he just threw a tweet out and he.
- 6:07Speaker 1: Just wrote this.
- 6:07Speaker 3: It's something that Alexi Lallis responded to. But the original
- 6:11Speaker 3: tweet reads like this from Zach. I desperately need people
- 6:17Speaker 3: who only watch football, it's that deep in the game
- 6:21Speaker 3: football every four years, to stop suggesting rule changes. Yes,
- 6:26Speaker 3: the offside's rule makes sense. No, there should not be
- 6:30Speaker 3: unlimited substitutions. Yes, a penalty shootout is the best way
- 6:34Speaker 3: to settle a draw. The world's biggest sport doesn't need
- 6:38Speaker 3: your alterations. That's what Zach threw out there. Okay, this
- 6:43Speaker 3: is how Alexi Lallis responded. Alexi wrote, I don't care
- 6:49Speaker 3: if this World Cup is your first soccer you've ever watched.
- 6:53Speaker 3: If this is the first soccer you've ever watched, you
- 6:56Speaker 3: don't need to defer, slash refrain. Your reaction, action, and
- 7:00Speaker 3: experience is as valid as anyone's. People may agree slash
- 7:05Speaker 3: disagree with you, but no gatekeeping or purity tests. Come
- 7:10Speaker 3: into the tent and have your say. Plenty of room.
- 7:14Speaker 3: I love that response from Alexi Lawless. I think that's
- 7:17Speaker 3: fantastic because he gets the big picture. He understands what's
- 7:23Speaker 3: going on with soccer in this country. It's comparable to
- 7:29Speaker 3: hockey to me, really is you'll have soccer guy or
- 7:35Speaker 3: hockey guy that wants things. They want their sport to grow.
- 7:42Speaker 3: They want the ratings to be bigger, they want the
- 7:44Speaker 3: coverage to be more frequent. They think their sport is
- 7:47Speaker 3: awesome and it should be talked about more. It should
- 7:51Speaker 3: be covered more, right like what are we doing? All
- 7:54Speaker 3: that type of stuff. They want the game to grow,
- 7:56Speaker 3: they want it to be more relevant.
- 7:58Speaker 1: And then someone who's not knee deep in the game
- 8:03Speaker 1: like they might be.
- 8:04Speaker 3: They throw out an opinion and they are shouted down.
- 8:09Speaker 1: You're basically told to go away, get out of here.
- 8:12Speaker 3: You don't know what you're talking about. There's the door
- 8:15Speaker 3: right there, use it right if that happens. If you're
- 8:20Speaker 3: just shouted down for whatever whatever opinion you're like, Man,
- 8:23Speaker 3: these offside penalties are wild. Could they tweak that a
- 8:26Speaker 3: little bit? They should have unlimited substitutions, like whatever whatever
- 8:30Speaker 3: you want to throw out there. That Zach pushed back
- 8:32Speaker 3: about if you're just like giving a collective thumbs down,
- 8:37Speaker 3: you don't know what you're talking about. Go away, poser.
- 8:41Speaker 3: That's basically what you're met with. There are a lot
- 8:43Speaker 3: of people. They're not gonna feel welcomed. They're not gonna
- 8:46Speaker 3: continue to watch. They're not gonna support the sport that
- 8:50Speaker 3: you hope grows. You're gonna turn the sport into They're
- 8:56Speaker 3: just gonna keep spinning its wheels while you try to
- 9:00Speaker 3: throw it. If you're trying to grow it, you gotta
- 9:02Speaker 3: water it. Like telling people that take a hike is
- 9:06Speaker 3: not the equivalent of watering them. Okay, Alexi Lallis gets it.
- 9:12Speaker 3: He's like, come on in, come on. We might disagree,
- 9:14Speaker 3: we might say you're kind.
- 9:16Speaker 1: Of crazy, but at least come on in. You know,
- 9:18Speaker 1: it's fine, throw some stuff against the wall. We'll see
- 9:20Speaker 1: what sticks.
- 9:22Speaker 3: That's a much better approach. That's such a better approach.
- 9:26Speaker 3: So I respect that from Alexi Lallss. I thought there
- 9:29Speaker 3: was a great response. I thought that was one of
- 9:31Speaker 3: the greatest responses you'll hear from a TV analyst. And
- 9:36Speaker 3: it's funny that it's Alexi Lallis. There are a lot
- 9:38Speaker 3: of people that they're like, oh, it's freaking guy, Like
- 9:41Speaker 3: he's not mister popularity. I think he's im a smart guy.
- 9:48Speaker 3: I don't understand the amount of negativity.
- 9:52Speaker 1: But I thought that was a great response.
- 9:53Speaker 3: And there are a lot of people that are like,
- 9:55Speaker 3: right on, Alexi, very good, good stuff right there. But yeah,
- 9:58Speaker 3: there is man, there's a lot of gatekeeping. There's a
- 10:01Speaker 3: lot I'll just put it this way. Since we're talking
- 10:04Speaker 3: about cards, you know, yellow card, red card, all that stuff.
- 10:07Speaker 3: Ball again got the red card. That was silly, But
- 10:10Speaker 3: there are a lot of cards that are played that
- 10:13Speaker 3: don't need to be played. If you are soccer guy
- 10:17Speaker 3: or soccer girl and your knee deep. You're watching MLS stuff.
- 10:22Speaker 3: You're deep in the game, like, you don't need to
- 10:29Speaker 3: throw out there right, like you don't know what you're
- 10:34Speaker 3: talking about. You're only here once every four years.
- 10:37Speaker 1: You don't blob like. You don't need to discredit someone,
- 10:40Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Just just say you disagree
- 10:42Speaker 1: and state why. That's it. That's all I gotta do.
- 10:46Speaker 1: There's nothing wrong with that.
- 10:48Speaker 3: I share an opinion, You share an opinion, alright, great, fine,
- 10:51Speaker 3: no no problem. But I would never I would never
- 10:54Speaker 3: do what a lot of soccer people do. I love
- 10:58Speaker 3: the NFL. I watch the NFL non stop. I don't
- 11:03Speaker 3: miss games like I just don't. If it's the people
- 11:07Speaker 3: they complain about some of the dog Thursday night games
- 11:11Speaker 3: that's happened for a long time, where it's like, oh
- 11:14Speaker 3: my gosh, oh gosh, Browns Thursday Night. Yeah, no thanks,
- 11:18Speaker 3: I'm like, yes, from beginning to end. Give me all
- 11:21Speaker 3: the Browns football you got. I don't miss games, man,
- 11:25Speaker 3: I love the NFL. The last thing I would do
- 11:29Speaker 3: if someone threw something out there and it was a
- 11:32Speaker 3: dumb take, I would never say you don't watch the
- 11:37Speaker 3: games religiously, you don't know what you're talking about. I
- 11:40Speaker 3: would just focus on whatever their point was, and I
- 11:44Speaker 3: would stay on point. And I might disagree, I might
- 11:49Speaker 3: disagree strongly, but I'm not gonna say you shouldn't have
- 11:52Speaker 3: an opinion.
- 11:53Speaker 1: You shouldn't be saying anything. That's what soccer guy does
- 11:57Speaker 1: a lot.
- 11:57Speaker 3: It's insane. It's really an insane approach, coach, But I do.
- 12:01Speaker 3: I appreciate Alexi Lawless for seeing the big picture, and
- 12:05Speaker 3: I did overhear a conversation today about offsides.
- 12:09Speaker 1: I'm like this, just for the.
- 12:10Speaker 3: Record, I'm a lot more black and white when it
- 12:14Speaker 3: comes to offside. I'm not one of these Johnny cum
- 12:17Speaker 3: lately just watched the World Cup people. I mean, I
- 12:20Speaker 3: am that, but I'm not one of these people that's
- 12:23Speaker 3: just like, oh Man, offside sucks.
- 12:26Speaker 1: That shouldn't be a thing. Like I'm the opposite.
- 12:30Speaker 3: Even though I'll be fully transparent, I only watch soccer
- 12:33Speaker 3: once every four years. I only care about the World Cup.
- 12:35Speaker 3: I don't care about anything else. I don't whine about
- 12:40Speaker 3: the off side penalties. I get the criticism of it.
- 12:45Speaker 3: It is kind of wild. There have been a lot
- 12:47Speaker 3: of goals disallowed in this World Cup, a lot, and
- 12:51Speaker 3: it is wild where there's a goal scored and the
- 12:55Speaker 3: fans are losing their minds in a stadium. It's like
- 13:00Speaker 3: a religious experience. They're like, oh, goal, We're gonna win.
- 13:04Speaker 1: Unbelieve.
- 13:05Speaker 3: They're hugging and kissing and crying, and slowly they realized, like,
- 13:09Speaker 3: wait a minute, the score hasn't changed. It's back to
- 13:12Speaker 3: nothing nothing, what is it? Oh, it didn't count it
- 13:16Speaker 3: as wild how often it happens. But I'm a lot
- 13:21Speaker 3: more black and white when it comes to that. There
- 13:23Speaker 3: was a play last year in the NFL that uh
- 13:26Speaker 3: pukin Nakua made this insane sideline catch. It was the
- 13:31Speaker 3: Rams at the Falcons, and the Rams were losing and
- 13:34Speaker 3: this is their last chance at the very bitter end
- 13:37Speaker 3: of the game, and Stafford made this sick throw. Pukinakua
- 13:42Speaker 3: made this unreal catch, this one handed stab on the sideline,
- 13:48Speaker 3: got his feet in bounds, and you're watching it, You're like,
- 13:51Speaker 3: that looks like a catch. And then they showed another
- 13:54Speaker 3: angle and you could see that pokin Nakula bobbled the ball,
- 13:58Speaker 3: he lost control.
- 14:00Speaker 1: Of the ball.
- 14:01Speaker 3: Not a catch, Not a catch all right, And there
- 14:04Speaker 3: was a lot of reaction. It was like shouldn't that
- 14:07Speaker 3: be a catch? I mean, come on, that should count
- 14:09Speaker 3: as a catch. It's like, no, it shouldn't. He didn't
- 14:12Speaker 3: catch it.
- 14:12Speaker 1: He bobbled it. You can't do that.
- 14:14Speaker 3: He was out of bounce by time that he re
- 14:16Speaker 3: established control of the ball.
- 14:17Speaker 1: Not a catch.
- 14:18Speaker 3: So I'm very black and white when it comes to
- 14:21Speaker 3: a situation like that in football.
- 14:24Speaker 1: Is it a catch? Is it not a catch?
- 14:26Speaker 3: It's not like but it was really cool and hard
- 14:28Speaker 3: to do, so therefore it should be a catch. Nope, no, no, nope,
- 14:32Speaker 3: like not a catch. Sorry, there was a ketchup like Brandon,
- 14:35Speaker 3: you're you're a usc guy. I was at the game
- 14:39Speaker 3: last year and Malik Fields, Malachi Fields, who's now with
- 14:44Speaker 3: the Giants. He made this sick sideline catch. It was unbelievable,
- 14:49Speaker 3: but his foot.
- 14:50Speaker 1: Was out of bounds.
- 14:52Speaker 3: And it's like it was the heel toe thing, like
- 14:54Speaker 3: his toe was in bounds, his heel was out of bounds.
- 14:56Speaker 3: It's not a catch, no matter how impressive it was,
- 14:58Speaker 3: no matter how hard it was to to do, no
- 15:01Speaker 3: matter how awesome it looked.
- 15:02Speaker 1: Not a catch.
- 15:03Speaker 3: So that I'm more black and white when it comes
- 15:05Speaker 3: to stuff like that and the off side stuff. Yeah,
- 15:09Speaker 3: I know it can be you're off off side by
- 15:12Speaker 3: a millet inch. Guess what, Kevin Durant's big toe was
- 15:16Speaker 3: barely on the line against the Bucks when he was
- 15:19Speaker 3: with the Brooklyn Nets. That would have been a game
- 15:21Speaker 3: winning three, but he was barely touching the line. Should
- 15:25Speaker 3: that still be a three? No, it's a two. That's
- 15:28Speaker 3: the way it goes in sports.
- 15:29Speaker 1: Now.
- 15:30Speaker 3: There is such a thing where, I guess there are
- 15:32Speaker 3: leagues in soccer where they allow a little bit of grace.
- 15:36Speaker 3: Maybe they give you like a like an eight inch
- 15:39Speaker 3: gray zone. You know, you can be offside jes by
- 15:43Speaker 3: a little bit. If it's by a smidge, they're like,
- 15:47Speaker 3: it's close enough, we'll count it as a goal. Maybe
- 15:51Speaker 3: maybe something like that happens in the World Cup someday,
- 15:54Speaker 3: But until.
- 15:54Speaker 1: Then, I have no problem with the way it is.
- 15:56Speaker 1: I really have no problem.
- 15:58Speaker 3: But you know, if you're the opposite of me and
- 16:01Speaker 3: you think offside is way too strict and they should
- 16:04Speaker 3: greatly loosen it, the last thing that soccer guy should
- 16:08Speaker 3: do is be a gatekeeper and say no, you haven't
- 16:12Speaker 3: watched for enough hours for enough years to state your opinion.
- 16:17Speaker 3: Get out of here, go away. You're not allowed in
- 16:19Speaker 3: these parts. It's just it's not a cool way to
- 16:22Speaker 3: handle it. Just instead, maybe just stay on point and
- 16:25Speaker 3: stay white. You think offside should continue the way it is.
- 16:30Speaker 3: That makes a lot more sense to me. I don't
- 16:33Speaker 3: know why you would discredit the credentials and really discredit
- 16:36Speaker 3: the argument. Just have the discussion, right, Like, if you
- 16:41Speaker 3: love the game and people are getting involved in the game,
- 16:44Speaker 3: why would you shout that down?
- 16:45Speaker 1: Doesn't make any sense to me.

- 18:09Speaker 3: guys don't even know about I never scared you don't know.
- 18:11Speaker 1: I can't believe you don't know that song.
- 18:13Speaker 8: Yeah no, I didn't even make it past like the
- 18:16Speaker 8: introu U Brandon.
- 18:19Speaker 3: You hadn't heard that song either. You heard a little
- 18:21Speaker 3: bit of Lorena Planet. I would imagine over there in
- 18:23Speaker 3: the studio.
- 18:25Speaker 1: Man, I've heard that song before.
- 18:26Speaker 3: Oh, but I just didn't know the name of it,
- 18:29Speaker 3: so you didn't catch it on my singing ability is
- 18:31Speaker 3: what you're telling me.
- 18:32Speaker 8: No, yeah, I think that's zero for two.
- 18:35Speaker 3: That happens a lot to me, a lot. I can't
- 18:41Speaker 3: sing on key to save money.
- 18:43Speaker 8: You know what, you can't carry a tune?
- 18:45Speaker 3: I can't. I cannot sing at all. I'm a horrible singer.
- 18:51Speaker 3: I can play guitar. I can play guitar just fine.
- 18:54Speaker 3: I cannot sing a note. I'm terrible.
- 18:56Speaker 1: I'd be the worst karaoke duet partner of all time.
- 19:00Speaker 1: You do not want to be matched up with me.
- 19:02Speaker 3: But there are some songs where I'm like, I know
- 19:05Speaker 3: it's not gonna be note for note, but I'm trying
- 19:07Speaker 3: to describe it, and I'm like, you know, the one
- 19:09Speaker 3: that goes.
- 19:10Speaker 1: How can you screw up?
- 19:12Speaker 3: I ain't never scared anyone who's heard that song would
- 19:15Speaker 3: know and be able to play like, oh yeah, yeah,
- 19:18Speaker 3: I put this on you, guys. This is a you problem.
- 19:22Speaker 3: That's the truth. It's the truth in this instance, I
- 19:24Speaker 3: gotta be honest with you. By the way, now that
- 19:27Speaker 3: we're in July second is dated right now. But we
- 19:31Speaker 3: had Bobby Bonia Day. It came and went. My days
- 19:34Speaker 3: are all mixed up here doing overnight radio. But Bobby
- 19:38Speaker 3: Bonia Deferral Day. That was on July first. He collected
- 19:42Speaker 3: another one point one nine million dollars from the Mets
- 19:47Speaker 3: and he gets that all the way through twenty thirty five.
- 19:50Speaker 3: You know what's crazy about that? When these Otani deferred
- 19:55Speaker 3: payments start rolling in, Bobby Bonia Day is going to
- 19:59Speaker 3: be like, Wow, oh, we got all excited over one
- 20:02Speaker 3: point one nine million.
- 20:04Speaker 1: Dollars each year. I like it.
- 20:06Speaker 3: It's a cool thing each year where you know, he
- 20:09Speaker 3: gets his payday and all that, and we're like, man,
- 20:11Speaker 3: Bobby Bonia made another one point one million dollars when, oh, Tony,
- 20:16Speaker 3: what's it gonna be? Like sixty million dollars? Is that
- 20:19Speaker 3: what they're gonna be when he starts getting those deferred payments.
- 20:22Speaker 3: That's insanity, But they're gonna kick in. I think I
- 20:26Speaker 3: looked it up where there is a little bit of
- 20:29Speaker 3: bleed over where I think maybe I don't know which
- 20:33Speaker 3: year exactly Otani's deferred payments kick in, but it might
- 20:38Speaker 3: be the last year or close to the last year
- 20:42Speaker 3: that Bobby Bonia still gets paid. So I think we
- 20:45Speaker 3: have at least one year where there is crossover where
- 20:48Speaker 3: they will both get paid at the same time and
- 20:50Speaker 3: it's like, happy Bobby Bonia Day, one point one million dollars.
- 20:54Speaker 3: He just got another check from the Mets. It's like, oh, wow,
- 20:58Speaker 3: Tony just got sixty million dollars. A little bit of
- 21:02Speaker 3: inflation right there. Kind of crazy how that's gonna go.
- 21:05Speaker 3: But uh yeah, yeah, get ready for that. By the way,
- 21:10Speaker 3: it's funny because I was telling Lorena off the air
- 21:15Speaker 3: that I've got two nephews, and my older nephew, Mini Matt.
- 21:18Speaker 3: I always call him Mini Matt. This is when the
- 21:22Speaker 3: Austin Powers movies were popular, and you know, Doctor Evil
- 21:26Speaker 3: had Mini Me, and so Matthew's father his name is Matt,
- 21:32Speaker 3: and so it was just a stupid thing. I was like,
- 21:34Speaker 3: I would call him Mini Matt and it just stuck.
- 21:37Speaker 3: We've called him Mini Matt his whole life. He's like
- 21:40Speaker 3: twenty three years old now. But MANI when he was
- 21:44Speaker 3: a little little kid, he would always say Aword.
- 21:49Speaker 1: He would always do that. It was the funniest thing.
- 21:51Speaker 1: But now we have that.
- 21:53Speaker 3: Now that Jalen Brown has been traded to the Sixers,
- 21:57Speaker 3: we do have a little bit of slight awkwardness because
- 22:01Speaker 3: he was going back and forth with Joel Embiid in
- 22:04Speaker 3: the playoffs just a couple of months ago, and the
- 22:09Speaker 3: Celtics they blew a three to one series lead.
- 22:12Speaker 1: The Sixers came back, they won.
- 22:13Speaker 3: The series, and after the series happened, Jalen Brown had
- 22:17Speaker 3: this to say about Joel Embiid, who's now his new teammate.
- 22:21Speaker 9: My personal opinion on basketball. Some of 'am might disagree,
- 22:24Speaker 9: you know what I mean, but argue with your grandma.
- 22:26Speaker 9: Flopping has ruined our game. Joel Embiid is a great player,
- 22:31Speaker 9: one of the best bigs in basketball history.
- 22:35Speaker 6: Flops.
- 22:36Speaker 9: He know it ain't This ain't breaking news.
- 22:38Speaker 3: Okay, So he called out Joel Embiid for flopping, and
- 22:42Speaker 3: he's correct, by the way, Joel Embiid flops quite a bit.
- 22:47Speaker 3: And it's it's soccer like. You know, it's so over
- 22:51Speaker 3: the top. And Jalen Brown said it's ruining the game.
- 22:55Speaker 3: He went far into that territory. So I don't think
- 22:59Speaker 3: this is any big deal. You know, you're gonna see
- 23:01Speaker 3: this on Sports Center, You're gonna hear some sound bites
- 23:04Speaker 3: on sports radio shows. I don't think this is any
- 23:07Speaker 3: big thing. I don't think this is a big hurdle.
- 23:09Speaker 3: I don't think it's anything where Joel Embiid known his
- 23:13Speaker 3: personality and he'll joke around. He's as competitive as it gets.
- 23:17Speaker 3: But he's a joke store as well. He'll probably have
- 23:20Speaker 3: this you know, press conference like situation, and he'll go
- 23:24Speaker 3: up to Jaylen Brown like, oh hey, Jaalen man going
- 23:27Speaker 3: to give him kind of like the the half bro
- 23:30Speaker 3: hug and fall down be like oh yeah, you know,
- 23:33Speaker 3: like writhing in pain and just make a joke out
- 23:36Speaker 3: of it. This is nothing. This is not gonna be
- 23:37Speaker 3: a big deal whatsoever. I do like that Jalen Brown
- 23:41Speaker 3: said this within the flopping comments about Joel embiid with
- 23:45Speaker 3: your grandma. I do like I should just I should
- 23:48Speaker 3: just say that to the people that tweet all these
- 23:51Speaker 3: nasty things because I'm rooting against Team USA and men's soccer.
- 23:56Speaker 3: You know, I mentioned that where we are redskins. He
- 23:59Speaker 3: he He tweeted at me and called me a total
- 24:03Speaker 3: D word and then also called me the P word.
- 24:05Speaker 3: He went D word and P word in one tweet.
- 24:08Speaker 3: There's like two sentences. I'm like, holy, I covered a
- 24:11Speaker 3: lot of ground. I should just hit him with the Jalen.
- 24:13Speaker 9: Brown argue with your grandma.
- 24:14Speaker 3: Yeah, argue with your grandma. That's what I should just
- 24:17Speaker 3: tell these people, you know. But yeah, I think that
- 24:22Speaker 3: Team USA's run is going to come to an end
- 24:24Speaker 3: pretty soon. I do think Belgium is going to beat
- 24:26Speaker 3: him on Monday. But hey, it's been a good run.
- 24:30Speaker 3: They've made progress, They've done a lot of good things.
- 24:33Speaker 3: They beat Bosnia down a man fall again, got the
- 24:37Speaker 3: red card. They still outscored Belgium just within that time.
- 24:42Speaker 3: Man down and you still outscore him. So that's that's
- 24:45Speaker 3: really well done. I've got no trash to talk about them.
- 24:48Speaker 3: Their performance on Tuesday night, they earned that win. It's
- 24:51Speaker 3: very good showing Malik Tillman with a free kick goal,
- 24:55Speaker 3: perfect strike, perfect pinpoint accuracy, with pace. It's very very
- 25:01Speaker 3: well done. But we'll see man, we'll see against Belgium
- 25:04Speaker 3: on Monday. For a squad that's only won two knockout
- 25:09Speaker 3: stage games in their history in the World Cup, I
- 25:13Speaker 3: think the party's gonna come to a halt sooner than later.
- 25:18Speaker 3: But hey, people are fired up. They're all excited. God
- 25:20Speaker 3: bless them. They should be. Should be fired up for that.
- 25:23Speaker 3: The other thing with Jalen Brown here before I get
- 25:25Speaker 3: to the militia. The other thing with Jalen Brown is
- 25:30Speaker 3: I think this had a lot to do with the
- 25:32Speaker 3: off season. Jalen Brown, right after the season ended. Immediately
- 25:38Speaker 3: after the season ended, not even twenty four hours later,
- 25:42Speaker 3: he went on Twitch and he said this.
- 25:45Speaker 9: It was my favorite year of my basketball career.
- 25:48Speaker 3: You've heard that quite a bit because it matters to
- 25:53Speaker 3: lose in the first round, right, to blow a three
- 25:57Speaker 3: to one series lead and then immediately come out and
- 26:01Speaker 3: be like, that was my favorite season. I'm so proud
- 26:06Speaker 3: that was my favorite season. It's just like what That's why.
- 26:09Speaker 3: I think that factored into the Celtics being like, all right,
- 26:15Speaker 3: we gotta move this guy. They gave him up, they
- 26:19Speaker 3: traded him to the Sixers, who they just lost to,
- 26:22Speaker 3: and they got a modest return. That just shows how
- 26:27Speaker 3: eager they were to move Jalen Brown. I don't understand.
- 26:33Speaker 3: I don't know that it was that bad. Was it
- 26:35Speaker 3: that bad where you're just like, all right, we'll move
- 26:38Speaker 3: him to the Sixers. We'll take old Paul George two
- 26:41Speaker 3: first round picks. Yeah, we'll call it good. Yeah, what
- 26:44Speaker 3: are you gonna do? It happens every now and then.
- 26:47Speaker 3: It's just wild to me, But here we are, that's
- 26:50Speaker 3: where we are. There's no better sign to show how
- 26:54Speaker 3: eager they were to get rid of Jalen Brown. Then
- 26:57Speaker 3: the return they got from the team that they executed
- 27:01Speaker 3: the trade with the with the Sixers, they're gonna be
- 27:05Speaker 3: a hurdle in their way in the Eastern Conference this
- 27:09Speaker 3: next season. Pretty wild, man, But I don't know. That's
- 27:13Speaker 3: a head scratcher, to say the least. I do not
- 27:15Speaker 3: understand that that deal whatsoever. Some other deals being made.
- 27:20Speaker 3: You know, John Collins agreeing to a three year, fifty
- 27:23Speaker 3: one million dollar deal with the Pistons. So John Collins
- 27:26Speaker 3: goes to Detroit.
- 27:29Speaker 1: You had.
- 27:31Speaker 3: You had some other moves here where Tobias Harris former Piston,
- 27:35Speaker 3: He's going to the Spurs. So he goes over to
- 27:38Speaker 3: the Spurs. He got Mitchell Robinson former Nick. He signed
- 27:41Speaker 3: with the Celtics. Well, he at least agreed with the Celtics.
- 27:45Speaker 3: Gotta take a little bit of time to sign that deal.
- 27:47Speaker 3: It can't become official until July sixth, but their agreement
- 27:51Speaker 3: is in place. He's going to the Celtics.
- 27:53Speaker 1: I don't know, man.
- 27:54Speaker 3: I just look at the Knicks, and I know there's
- 27:56Speaker 3: been a lot made about Dolan not shelling out some cash,
- 28:01Speaker 3: not going into the second Apron, all that stuff. You
- 28:05Speaker 3: could be like, run it back, bring everybody back. They
- 28:08Speaker 3: brought Landry Shamit back, they're bringing Alvarado back. It's not
- 28:12Speaker 3: like they're, you know, not keeping the band back together
- 28:15Speaker 3: in any capacity. Plenty of guys that will return from
- 28:18Speaker 3: last year's championship squad, but Mitchell Robinson. I don't want
- 28:23Speaker 3: to reduce the guy to a dime a dozen. But
- 28:27Speaker 3: let's not act like Mitchell Robinson is irreplaceable? Can we
- 28:30Speaker 3: can we be reasonable about that? Mitchell Robinson is a
- 28:33Speaker 3: really good rebounder. He's an excellent rebounder, good rim protector,
- 28:39Speaker 3: can't shoot a lick. Not an offensive threat at all. Okay,
- 28:43Speaker 3: He's good for some lobs here and there.
- 28:45Speaker 1: That's it.
- 28:46Speaker 3: That's the extent of his offensive ability. We're good with
- 28:50Speaker 3: lobs and putbacks.
- 28:51Speaker 1: That's it.
- 28:52Speaker 3: Okay to lose that guy to the Celtics three year deal,
- 28:57Speaker 3: forty seven million dollars. Hey, man, you gotta shrug your
- 29:00Speaker 3: shoulders and be like, we'll find someone else.
- 29:04Speaker 1: We'll find someone else.
- 29:05Speaker 3: I want to make it sound like Mitchell Robinson's grow
- 29:09Speaker 3: on trees, right, but let's not act like he's irreplaceable. Okay, again,
- 29:14Speaker 3: I go back to a guy like James Dolan is
- 29:19Speaker 3: gonna look at Mitchell Robinson and say that's too heavy
- 29:24Speaker 3: of a price tag. I don't think that's a crazy
- 29:27Speaker 3: takeaway at all. There are fans that will be up
- 29:29Speaker 3: in arms like you should bring the whole team back.
- 29:31Speaker 3: And he's looking at this and like, Mitchell Robinson, in
- 29:36Speaker 3: my opinion, not worth forty seven million dollars over three years.
- 29:41Speaker 3: Guy can't shoot a lick, can't make a free throw
- 29:44Speaker 3: to save his life, and we're gonna bring him back
- 29:47Speaker 3: like what he's worth that. I think he can go
- 29:52Speaker 3: in a different direction. So some fans will, we'll go crazy,
- 29:57Speaker 3: they'll overreact the lack like, oh, this is why they're
- 30:01Speaker 3: not going to repeat and all that type of stuff. No,
- 30:03Speaker 3: it's not, No, it's not. It's it's hard to repeat.
- 30:06Speaker 3: We haven't had a repeat champion in eight years in
- 30:08Speaker 3: the NBA. What's even more interesting than that, that's a record,
- 30:13Speaker 3: by the way, eight different champions in eight straight years.
- 30:16Speaker 3: That's the longest streak in NBA history. We've also had
- 30:19Speaker 3: four straight seasons with completely new finalists, so it's we
- 30:27Speaker 3: got like two different teams every single year this past season.
- 30:31Speaker 3: Nick Spurs before that, thunder Pacers before that, Celtics MAVs
- 30:36Speaker 3: before that Nuggets heat.
- 30:39Speaker 1: We haven't had a team just get back to.
- 30:41Speaker 3: The finals within the last four years, so there have
- 30:45Speaker 3: been a lot of parody. So that's something else to
- 30:49Speaker 3: keep in mind right there. All right, let's get out
- 30:51Speaker 3: to the phones. Eight seven to seven ninety nine on Fox.
- 30:54Speaker 3: Let me check here real fast. Let me see, let
- 30:56Speaker 3: me see, is we still have Andrew and Baco. I

- 31:22Speaker 10: on Fort Wagner? Sir, it's more important things I'll fighting
- 31:30Speaker 10: than rest. I said it wrong, but it's character, it's

- 31:38Speaker 10: were a sight to see. We'll be ready. Good job, poach,
- 31:43Speaker 10: good job fully and Brian. I could respond to your
- 31:48Speaker 10: three points, but because I disagree with all three, but
- 31:52Speaker 10: I'll just leave it at that. Let's go, guys, Let's go.
- 31:58Speaker 3: Wow uh for that, Andrew, unbelievable, Wow, standing ovation.
- 32:06Speaker 1: What wow problem Great Steve is in Manhattan.

- 32:16Speaker 1: What's going on, Steve?
- 32:18Speaker 11: Well that flag that was flying over the Empire State Building,
- 32:21Speaker 11: said Mal the Militia Brian Distinguished Panel, expanding audience, Welcome
- 32:27Speaker 11: to he hall. Right now. Listen the Caitlyn Clock thing.
- 32:33Speaker 11: I mean, I said when this person started three years ago,
- 32:37Speaker 11: that Caitlin Clock had turned into Bobby Clock and all
- 32:40Speaker 11: her problems would be but you know, behind her and
- 32:42Speaker 11: everything gone. But now I put it on the league
- 32:45Speaker 11: and the team owner. She's going out there every night.
- 32:49Speaker 11: She's basically she's getting mugged every single night out on
- 32:53Speaker 11: the basketball court and they're doing nothing about it. And
- 32:57Speaker 11: people come up with all this pony nonsense seeing Caitlin.
- 33:01Speaker 11: Look at some old videos of Bobby Clark. I said
- 33:03Speaker 11: this to another host, and you know he said, oh,
- 33:05Speaker 11: she should shoot more? Yeah, right, shoot more? Anyway, go ahead,
- 33:09Speaker 11: and anyway. This bed with Michael J. Smith or a
- 33:12Speaker 11: Smith whatever his name's I always said he was a clown.
- 33:15Speaker 11: But it's a possibility. I know it's bs. He's gonna run
- 33:18Speaker 11: for president. He's probably angling to win the Democratic nomination
- 33:22Speaker 11: for president. That's why he's saying all that goofball stuff.
- 33:25Speaker 11: You gotta be the win the Democratic nomination. You got
- 33:28Speaker 11: to be the biggest goofball in the pack. And he's
- 33:30Speaker 11: saying goofy things now. And for me, he was always
- 33:34Speaker 11: a clown. And right right behind him was Charles Barfley.
- 33:38Speaker 11: Some of the nonsense he said, you do you like Chuck?
- 33:40Speaker 1: Why don't you like Chuck? There, Steve, I love Chuck well.
- 33:44Speaker 11: Because he's said crazy things. He's done stupid things through
- 33:48Speaker 11: the years. Come on, I don't want to repeat some
- 33:49Speaker 11: of the nonsense when he was playing what he said
- 33:52Speaker 11: and everything like that. But I have a special friend. Yeah,
- 33:56Speaker 11: but you're gonna love this guy.
- 33:58Speaker 5: Republic challenge hers Bush past drink Buchanan as on this

- 34:21Speaker 3: I appreciate you checking in Steve there, he is Steven Manhattan.
- 34:24Speaker 1: Where we go here, Lorena.
- 34:26Speaker 8: I don't even know how we got there.
- 34:28Speaker 3: What are we doing here, Steve and Andrew? Goodness, I'm
- 34:32Speaker 3: trying to think of like bad tag teams throughout the
- 34:36Speaker 3: history of pro wrestling. I don't know anybody come to mind.
- 34:43Speaker 3: They're a tag team known as Andrew and Steve. I
- 34:45Speaker 3: don't know who were like the uh who was like
- 34:49Speaker 3: the like the Jabbroni tag team partner tag team, you know,
- 34:54Speaker 3: the tag team partners where they would just go out
- 34:56Speaker 3: there and get whooped and we knew it would happen
- 34:58Speaker 3: every time.
- 34:59Speaker 1: I'm not as Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce on the
- 35:02Speaker 1: Brooklyn Nets.
- 35:03Speaker 3: Wow, that's pretty good. I was thinking pro wrestling itself.
- 35:08Speaker 3: But I like how you expanded that. Yeah, who was
- 35:10Speaker 3: the owner at the time.
- 35:12Speaker 1: What was his name? Pro Karoff?
- 35:14Speaker 6: Right?
- 35:14Speaker 1: Was that Russian dude? I think it was.
- 35:16Speaker 3: I think that it was something along those lines. Is
- 35:18Speaker 3: that ring a bell pro Karoff? It was something like that.
- 35:22Speaker 3: But he was like, yeah, do it make the deal?
- 35:24Speaker 3: Tired of losing, Get Kevin Garnett, get Paul Pierce. You
- 35:28Speaker 3: know what's funny about that, Brandon, is that deal led
- 35:33Speaker 3: to Tatum and Brown and we just had Jalen Brown
- 35:37Speaker 3: get traded to the sixers for next to nothing. Very
- 35:41Speaker 3: modest hall, very modest hall. But it's funny. How Yeah,
- 35:45Speaker 3: that happened about ten years ago or so ish and
- 35:50Speaker 3: the after effect is still right now. Man, I cannot
- 35:52Speaker 3: spell pro karoff and talk at the same time. I'm
- 35:56Speaker 3: not even close. Google's just like pro craft now, pro
- 36:01Speaker 3: karoft like something like that, pro k pro something I
- 36:05Speaker 3: don't know. All right, eight seven seven ninety nine on

- 36:36Speaker 3: with you right around the corner. It is Fox Sports Radio.
- 36:38Speaker 3: I'm Brian no In for big Ben Malor hang with
- 36:41Speaker 3: us right here on FSR. It is Fox Sports Radio.
- 36:47Speaker 3: I'm Brian no In for Big Ben Maler. I'll tell
- 36:49Speaker 3: you what bet a heck of an NBA off season
- 36:52Speaker 3: so far, we're just getting warmed up, just getting warmed
- 36:56Speaker 3: up here.
- 36:56Speaker 1: We got trades galore, huh.
- 37:00Speaker 3: We got Kawhi going to the Raptors, Giannis to the Heat,
- 37:05Speaker 3: Jaws with the Blazers, Jalen Brown on the move, all
- 37:09Speaker 3: kinds of bronze of free agent LaMelo Ball. That's an
- 37:13Speaker 3: insane offseason so far. That has been rapid fire style.
- 37:18Speaker 3: I don't know if we'll have a big trade to
- 37:19Speaker 3: talk about tomorrow. Maybe I'll tell you this. We'll get
- 37:23Speaker 3: to the phones here. Well, I'll get to the phones first,
- 37:28Speaker 3: and i'll give you the fun fact at the end.
- 37:29Speaker 3: Andrea and Berkeley is with us. Andrea, how you doing.
- 37:33Speaker 3: How are they early morning hours treating you?
- 37:36Speaker 1: Oh good?
- 37:37Speaker 4: I like hearing your callers talk about the full moon.
- 37:42Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, every now and then the moon gets discussed.
- 37:45Speaker 3: I know your ears perk up for that. Yeah, you
- 37:47Speaker 3: like that type of stuff.
- 37:49Speaker 2: Yes.
- 37:49Speaker 4: And actually I did a sports astrology podcast with a
- 37:53Speaker 4: colleague of mine a while ago on Caitlin Clark's Sports Astrology.
- 37:58Speaker 4: And She's born January twenty second, two thousand and two,
- 38:04Speaker 4: and she's a humanitarian aquarian. Five planets. You only have
- 38:09Speaker 4: ten planets, so five of her planets are in Aquarius,
- 38:12Speaker 4: which is very freedom loving, eccentric. I kind of know
- 38:16Speaker 4: it as like the humanitarian aquarian. So that's you know,
- 38:21Speaker 4: her sunshine, but her transit's what's happening currently. Pluto, which
- 38:26Speaker 4: is power and power struggles, is inaquarius, and that can
- 38:32Speaker 4: be drawing power struggles ego clashes to her and having
- 38:39Speaker 4: to fend them off and deal with them. So it's
- 38:43Speaker 4: not just our birth chart but what we're dealing with
- 38:45Speaker 4: transit wise or forecast wise, you know what.
- 38:50Speaker 3: I want to give you a theory here real fast, Andrea,
- 38:52Speaker 3: where my theory is. And I know this isn't correct,
- 38:55Speaker 3: but my theory is that Caitlin Clark is constantly dealing
- 39:00Speaker 3: with mercury and retrograde while playing in the w NBA.
- 39:04Speaker 3: It just seems like everything's going haywire. She's targeted, cheap shots, physicality,
- 39:10Speaker 3: all that stuff. WNBA doesn't help her most of the time,
- 39:14Speaker 3: right right, it feels like mercury is in retrograde right here,
- 39:18Speaker 3: feels like that's yeah.
- 39:20Speaker 4: Yeah, no, It's an interesting point. And it's like with
- 39:24Speaker 4: five planets in a query query, she's going to attract
- 39:27Speaker 4: a lot of challenging people, and with that Pluto transit,
- 39:32Speaker 4: more likely than not things aren't going to go smoothly
- 39:34Speaker 4: and aren't going to go her way. Yeah, well right, Mercury, Right,
- 39:39Speaker 4: So your observation is one hundred percent accurate.
- 39:41Speaker 1: Well, I appreciate that. There you go, nice, I'm glad
- 39:44Speaker 1: we got to run.
- 39:45Speaker 3: Andrea. I appreciate you checking in. It's always good to
- 39:47Speaker 3: hear from you. But we are super light on time.
- 39:50Speaker 3: I got to give this fun fact at the very end.
- 39:53Speaker 3: So Jalen Brown getting traded from the Celtics to the Sixers.
- 39:59Speaker 3: Paul George, Right, Paul George going to the Celtics. Look
- 40:02Speaker 3: at this now, Paul George in his NBA career, he's
- 40:06Speaker 3: been traded for Shay Gilgess, Alexander back to back league MVP.
- 40:11Speaker 3: He's been traded now for Jalen Brown. Some other players
- 40:14Speaker 3: debonas a bonus, Danilo Gallinari, Victor Oladipo, five first round picks,
- 40:21Speaker 3: two first round pick swaps. That's Paul George right there.
- 40:25Speaker 3: That's unbelievable.
- 40:28Speaker 1: It's insane. SGA.
- 40:31Speaker 3: I want to say one of the picks turned into
- 40:33Speaker 3: Jalen Williams as well.
- 40:34Speaker 1: Crazy Man. Everybody enjoyed the morning. We'll catch it soon.
