- 0:58imitating Jaws from seven It's Sports Allegedly. Welcome, Welcome, Welcome, everybody.
- 1:04Thank you for joining us on this third day of June of twenty twenty
- 1:11with June Benny. We have got a lot to talk about tonight. We're
- 1:15going to talk obviously local softball, local baseball. It's summer sports time.
- 1:21We're going to talk a little bit about hockey championship. Stanley Cup finals is
- 1:26set. Also the WNBA finals NBA set. We'll talk and then we'll talk
- 1:32a little bit about the WNA. We got to talk about that, but
- 1:37let's talk. Let's start with let's do a little softball talk right now.
- 1:42Today we had the I guess it'd be the semi finals, had number the
- 1:47two seed, two seed Oklahoma versus the four seed Florida. Florida kick the
- 1:52shit out of you today, pretty uncommon. Worst loss of OU this year
- 2:00also ended their winning streak. Who was the longest again in the suck it
- 2:07was yeah, they had the after UCLA lost. Now they Oklahoma did have
- 2:10the longest winning streak again it was or fourteen. No, I think it
- 2:15was ou and uh and then no, because Texas went out early in the
- 2:20champion the series. Remember in the Big twelve Championship. Oh, I didn't
- 2:27even know, so so you know they do and uh so nine to three
- 2:31loss, Oh I forgot kiddy claps back? Now see, uh, Maxville
- 2:39Ordeal didn't pitch. They pitched may today. It didn't work out well,
- 2:46nine to three. Like I said, they had four homers, had one
- 2:47inside in the park, home run, ten hits, half of them were
- 2:53extra bases. Just it was a ship show, to be honest. They
- 2:59did bringing Delph three inning, they did. They brought her in later and
- 3:02she gave up fiven runs so her own run average was five So that was
- 3:08five runs. Yeah, nine for Nicole Maye. Just the and like I've
- 3:13said before, and this is nothing against these girls, they're a great lineup.
- 3:16They're just not as good as they were last year. And also also
- 3:22roth Rock is Florida's best pitchers and she's a freshman. And my concern is,
- 3:28what what is oh, you have coming? We haven't seen anybody.
- 3:30Well, there's no talk about them, no, exactly thirty three and eight
- 3:34for Rothrock. She's obviously not going to pitch tomorrow. And you got to
- 3:38remember that Florida's had baseball coaches is xual Ou, pitcher for the ninety four
- 3:43national title team. So Rothrock throws and thirty pitches. She's not pitching tomorrow,
- 3:47I would assume. So it looks like Maxwell is going to get the
- 3:52start, which i'd rather have our race obviously, Oh, you've got to
- 3:54win tomorrow. I can't remember what time that game is, but anyway,
- 3:59fifty six and that's seventh loss for as soon as this year with the Gators
- 4:02come in at fifty four and fourteen. But yeah, it was just total
- 4:08domination from the beginning. At one point it was seven to one. Yeah,
- 4:13except for the sixth and but I mean it is good. It's good
- 4:18to see what they and generally, oh you does better when they've been smacked
- 4:21around in the mouth a little bit. So let's see what they think they
- 4:26pull out to remember, there was the same Florida team that took O s
- 4:29U out. Yeah, and you know, and speaking of Osu, I
- 4:35mean it is that game that they picked that I want to hear about this
- 4:42game. But no, you were very very upset about this game. Well,
- 4:45yeah, because they should have won that game. They ended up losing
- 4:47it like one to nothing, and it was just a shit show of what
- 4:53they've done. The picture done everything that they should have and zero just zero
- 4:58offense at all. Well that was roth Rock that pitched that game. Yeah,
- 5:02we got three hits off of her, three runs off of her.
- 5:06O s, you've got nothing. Speaking of issue, Auburn didn't come after
- 5:12Kenny Guyski and uh he did announce that he was going to stay at Oklhada
- 5:17State, so as he should. He's built a good program there. He's
- 5:23been there. I don't know how many years, but they said something Lass
- 5:28said, he's been there for a while. Oh yeah, yeah, he's
- 5:30he's built that program. Former baseball guy from OU, like I said,
- 5:33went to work for Tim Walton. Uh oh, you guys is coming out
- 5:39and dominating softball. It is what it is. Excuse me, I just
- 5:46I wanted to know. I couldn't remember Kelly what is her name? The
- 5:51picture that is so good? She was like up for which which from where?
- 5:58Lexi Kilfoy, That's it was Lexi kill Okay coming out of high school?
- 6:01No, no, no, so so, so I watched her.
- 6:08That was the Florida game that I watched her pitch, and she said she
- 6:11did so well that towards the end of that game, she started giving up
- 6:14more hits. They turn around and start her again, and she immediately you
- 6:17could just tell it was just it was just not it was not rotten.
- 6:20She's not She's not Kennedy. And Kennedy played who Candy started the majority of
- 6:26Stanford's games. Yeah, so well, no, lex Foot was actually close
- 6:31to the percentage wise, they were both in the eighties. But but Kennedy,
- 6:36they said that she played, she started six of the five Stanford games.
- 6:42Oh yeah, yeah, so they the problem is and she had bruised
- 6:46her knee. That was the last game, the last game where she had
- 6:50the very last pits she threw came right off of her knee, and everybody
- 6:55was was weirded out. What was the what was it? What was her
- 6:58stats on this last game? All right? So, like I said,
- 7:00nine to three, pull up that Texas game, nine to three, Oh,
- 7:02you loses, will play Florida tomorrow. Texas, on the other hand,
- 7:09moves on. Unfortunately, uh one one nothing denied on a horrible horrible,
- 7:15just defensive between the girl gets caught between third base and home and it
- 7:21just it was a fielding. Oh, it's just bad. It was just
- 7:25it was horrible. Son seven innings, five hits, one one run wasn't
- 7:30even an urn run because it was the defense was not good. She had
- 7:33one hundred and three pitches, sixty eight strikes. But the the cave and
- 7:39girl, uh for she's the freshman for Texas twenty and two seventy is pitched.
- 7:46I mean just she's good. And that's what we've seen. You know,
- 7:49we've seen the girl from Florida, we've seen the girl from Texas.
- 7:51The freshman pitchers have come in and they've been dominant. And my concern is,
- 7:56is our dominant pitchers out well for you Max that you know, Maxwell's
- 8:01done and she was a transfer portal is going to be interesting again for ou
- 8:07and and they should look at bringing in two to three pictures. In my
- 8:09opinion, we got ten or levels and see what everybody's losing. You know,
- 8:18who's gonna move. I'm not bitching. Everyone's going to say, well,
- 8:22we have a lot of seniors on the huge, a lot of that
- 8:24talent, and so and and and there's been a lot of people that has
- 8:28bitched about Oh, well, they're they're they're criticizing Patty and we're not doing
- 8:33any of that. She's the best softball coach probably all time. It's built,
- 8:37she's built one of the best all time. Oh, you fans are
- 8:41just picky as fu because they expected that's what. That's what you fan the
- 8:48organization, they all get picky about their coach unless they're in like a lower
- 8:52lower lower tier. People that expect to win are always going to Kennedy.
- 9:00I would be interested to see those seven losses. No seven law, No,
- 9:05I don't think she's a senior. You need to look. I think
- 9:07she's only a junior. Dude, she might be a sophomore. Actually,
- 9:15at least at the at the highest she's a junior. I'm trying to think.
- 9:18But my thing is is, I'd like to know what her her support
- 9:26run average is sophomore this year, exactly right. So she's got two more
- 9:31years and she's from Kansas, born into peaka peak Ichel. Come on back,
- 9:37come on, you can go a little local, you can come on
- 9:39down to Nobody wants to be a stand now. What a hell of a
- 9:45fucking degree she's gonna have when she's done there though, I mean, think
- 9:48about that. Uh, And she looked better than she did last year,
- 9:50in my opinion, I think her record doesn't show that right now and better
- 9:56last year. Update, Husky's up to nothing on the sooner, top of
- 10:00the fourth, two outs, top of the fourth. Man that and that
- 10:07was my concern is they have got to Oh, you've got to put up
- 10:11some numbers early to take this lead. And we already stopped playing behind,
- 10:16already down to nothing, all right, all right and eight So Texas makes
- 10:20a championship tomorrow will decide between Florida, uh and Oklahoma. And interesting enough,
- 10:28it's going to be an all SEC not officially but unofficial SEC championship regardless
- 10:37whitcomes to play. So now we want to move to the baseball. Yeah,
- 10:43we talked a little bit about that. I mean, owe you right
- 10:46now, down to nothing, Oh, there's a lot, there's a lot
- 10:48to talk about. We had a we had a This is one of the
- 10:52best times of the season because you've watched you've watched baseball a long time.
- 10:56Yeah, well we did last year too. You've got college baseball, you've
- 11:01got the softball, you've got the NBA, and you've got the NHL,
- 11:05all playing for the finishing. Plus you've got UFL and the NFL. But
- 11:13uh so, yeah, you've got sports. It is it's summer sports extravaganza.
- 11:18So uh OHU beats o r U fourteen to nothing, turns around,
- 11:24lose one to four to Yukon, which puts him and the loser bracket.
- 11:26Then yesterday they had to beat Duke four to three and then played Yukon beat
- 11:31them six to four. So now it's a winner take all tonight for that
- 11:35regional tonight. And so what they'll do right now, like I said,
- 11:41it's two nothing for nothing? Wow? Just keep ad man? Oh man,
- 11:46it is not. Did they not pull him? It's not looking good
- 11:50for the Sooners now, so to give two homers in the fourth, wow,
- 12:00then pull him? Yeah, I mean it was. It's one of
- 12:03those deals you're not getting out of. It's one of those deals that,
- 12:05oh you we've talked about. It didn't have the pitching to make the run
- 12:09like they did two years ago. They got Camber and uh and it's showing
- 12:16right now. It just is so and the hitters aren't hitting. I mean,
- 12:18it's a one hitter right now in the fourth or after three innings,
- 12:22So you're right, all right? For nothing. Now we are collapsing,
- 12:28yes, collapsing fast. So we're in the bottom though. All right,
- 12:31we'll keep you updated if we score any runs in the bottom of the fourth.
- 12:35Uh now biter now better in the uh. In the Chapel Hill region
- 12:39of North Carolina versus ls U, UH four to three. L s U
- 12:45had some massive extra inning games. I know they had to walk off.
- 12:48I think that was against Watford, I believe, uh huh And I told
- 12:52you that was the toughest region to be So North Carolina comes out after ten
- 12:56innings four to three. They'll move on. Uh. In the Super Region
- 13:00upsets though, uh there was plenty. UH. One ceds Carolina the four
- 13:07seed Evansville come out of that one, which is pretty impressive. Arkansas also
- 13:13local forty three and fourteen record name number three state. Former OU baseball coach
- 13:20pus is at Kansas State right now everywhere, so oh you former coach there.
- 13:28He gets Kansas State into the into the region or wins the regional championship.
- 13:35Also Arizona another big twelve FOU. West Virginia the three seed out of
- 13:39that wins it, which is a surprise. Not that I thought that they're
- 13:43bad. They were one of the better teams well in the Dallas Batist,
- 13:48but I thought Dallas Baptist was the better king But I told you, but
- 13:52but I had told you that that North Carolina was the was going to be
- 13:54the hardest region, And it turns out everybody else was saying that the Tucson
- 13:58region was gonna be the hardest. You know, if you know both of
- 14:03those, I don't know if that the team came out scott free out of
- 14:07any of those games. Otherwise, Tennessee the one seed and one of the
- 14:13overall number one teams. They look to be, legit the winner of this
- 14:20region. If Yukon and O you looks like Yukon, like I said at
- 14:24the bottom of the fourth four, nothing, they're gonna play Florida. They're
- 14:26gonna play Florida State, one of the better baseball team West Virginia. Though,
- 14:33they're gonna play North Carolina, which could be a potential matchup Oregon.
- 14:37Uh. They get out of the Santa Barbara region, they're the three seed,
- 14:41and that was San Diego with the two seeds. Surprised me. They
- 14:43had a good record, but Oregon was a good baseball team. They get
- 14:48out of that. Obviously, Texas falls out of the Big twelve A and
- 14:52m wins that region. Uh in Oklahoma State, I saw that Louisiana part
- 14:58of that Louisiana game and they took to Texas well, and that was a
- 15:01team I thought Mike sneak in sneak in A and m is really good.
- 15:07But like I said in the local, obviously Oklahoma State lost the region of
- 15:11Florida. They beat them, got beat twice. We have both Florida teams
- 15:16men's and women's in the State of Oklahoma CoA and they're doing damage. Godden
- 15:20down get out there. One seed, Georgia, n C State, Oregon
- 15:24State, and Kentucky on the other side. They moved through. So no
- 15:28radical changes there, just like it's man, but you know there's the upsets
- 15:35for the one seed has been impressive. I thought Arkansas very disappointing season.
- 15:37I mean they had they were running in that top five all year long and
- 15:41have Kansas State come out of there. But Southeast Missouri State seemed to be
- 15:46their Achille Hills at US Oh god be do they beat them twice? I
- 15:48think. So, Yeah, Southeast Missouri State, the fighting Cardinals I had,
- 15:56I did not expect. I did not expect their coach to coach coach
- 15:58with him. Actually, so yeah, I did not expect Arkansas and fall
- 16:02to Southeast Missouri. I regur there's going to be a law Tech that they
- 16:07would lose to or Kansas State. But yeah, that's southeastpressive by kansastate.
- 16:11You look at the Big twelve, the top end out, West Virginia was
- 16:15up there, Laara Roberts, you know, but uh, you know,
- 16:22Oklahoma's on the ropes right now and potentially, you know, lose against the
- 16:26biggiest champ. But you've got Texas and h O s U losing too,
- 16:32they're not going to make the finals. So West Virginia, though, was
- 16:34right up there, and they had a hell of a year. So West
- 16:37Virginia did have a home because remember West Virginia was leading the Big Twelve for
- 16:41for some time and they they've just had a bad end of the season.
- 16:49Yes, like it didn't it just didn't work out. And then they failed
- 16:52a fourth in the Big Twelve. Didn't they third or fourth? Because I
- 16:56think it was Texas and West Virginia were right there. Yeah they were,
- 16:59they were they. I think they finished with identical records, but I know
- 17:03you and then Oklahoma State, but yeah, West Virginia was not a team
- 17:07that that should have been, you know, a number three seed. I
- 17:15don't know. It was just a weird it was a weird said they just
- 17:17they fell out at the end of the season. So all right, let's
- 17:21move on. You wanna talk cocky your NBA, we can go to your
- 17:23NBA. We know how much you're you're biting, chomping at the bit to
- 17:26talk about that. Well, honestly, Celtics are gonna let me down.
- 17:30That's all I know. Okay, So prediction is gonna you think they're gonna
- 17:36lose. It's seven games, seven games, seven and here you're gonna pick
- 17:38it. You think Dallas. I think Dallas is just gonna steal it.
- 17:41I want Boston to win. I really trust me. I want Boston to
- 17:44win. I really think Boston is going to I don't want I think Boston
- 17:48wins in five. I think it's gonna I don't want Cuban to have anything.
- 17:52I think it's going to be down the team anymore. And I think
- 17:56that was a sale and then he gets to still run it. Kind of
- 17:59one of those weird deals they still did. Yeah, yeah, Judge,
- 18:02I don't know if that ever went through. But anyway, this is Boston
- 18:04year. They're their favorite, they have the best record, but domamic is
- 18:07getting all those stupid referee calls. Everything is not going to be that way.
- 18:15It's been one of the most impressive runs. It reminds me of that
- 18:18run that Miami had either last year or the year before as a seven.
- 18:22It was it last year that ran all the way and they lost in the
- 18:26championship, didn't they? Who they? Who? Who won last year?
- 18:29Who was Denver? Yes? Yes, So it was impressive and I think,
- 18:33yeah, no they did not know they didn't And I think they beat
- 18:37Boston, didn't They beat them in the first round. Wasn't that the Milwaukee
- 18:41one of the two? Yeah? So I think they were the eighth seed.
- 18:44Weren't they seven or eight seed? Yeah? Yeahally like the seed.
- 18:48It was an impressive run and I kind of feel like this for the Mavericks
- 18:51the fifth seed. But you look how close and I'm bringing it back to
- 18:55the Thunder a little bit, you look how close they were. They they
- 18:57did not dominate the thunder like they dominated Minnesota. And I found that odd
- 19:02because I really thought the bigs for Minnesota would really work that a little better.
- 19:08Now the Celtics obviously they had the easier road in the playoffs, there's
- 19:12no doubt, but I just think that, well, they're just more completely
- 19:18I like, I like the and I think Kyrie is gonna have it?
- 19:21Uh? Is he gonna try too hard to be this whole team? I
- 19:23really hope tes way too hard and that's a possible. And I was and
- 19:29I was listening, Uh it was was listening to one of the ESPN shows
- 19:33and they were arguing about who the better player on the Celtics was. Okay,
- 19:41and I think it was between Brown and Tatum. It might have been
- 19:45between Brown and Tatum was and and the guy picked picked somebody else to be
- 19:53who was it was? It like was it? Uh? Porzingis like trying
- 19:59to be like Zis has been out. It's it's it's part of the starters.
- 20:02And what they were saying was not the like, look at what happened.
- 20:06I think it might have been Tatum, but it was like, look
- 20:07at what happened when you took Tatum and put him on certain guys that shut
- 20:12down the it is. But I think the addition of Drew Holiday is huge.
- 20:18I mean, you know, but but they was better than Brown.
- 20:22And then because Tatum was shutting guys down, and it's what's White's first name?
- 20:26Go down a little bit. I can't remember Derek White. So that
- 20:30was a huge pickup too, you know, as as far as what they've
- 20:33done to build that team. And and that's the thing about Boston is they've
- 20:37got guys that can be stars every night. And I think with Dallas,
- 20:42you've just got to that's just my opinion, that could be the star.
- 20:48No, there's a third on Dallas. There's no one on Dallas that can
- 20:52be the star running. I just I just don't think so. I think
- 20:56it's I think it's Kyrie or it's Luca, and I think everybody else could
- 20:59have good games. I mean PJ Washington, I mean ran yeah, but
- 21:03I mean he ran up stats against the Thunder that's now that he's never gonna
- 21:06do. That's yeah. I mean came he did for that series and then
- 21:11he disappeared, and then and he didn't again, Minnesota disappeared. Is it
- 21:18Minnesota got the one game and then they went ape Ship. No, I
- 21:23won that last games. I think five games Boston is very possible. I
- 21:30just I don't see, and I could be totally wrong. I just think
- 21:33that the Dallas magic is going to run out eventually. It is kind of
- 21:37my thing. It's oh I wanted to and and I thought it was against
- 21:40minute. Well, obviously I picked the Thunder, but I just I don't
- 21:45know. It's just it's all in every you know, when you look at
- 21:49the Thunder in that series, if everyone would have played to their just to
- 21:52what they normally do. PJ. Washington, I still think I still think,
- 21:56why doesn't why doesn't Lookoma City go for one of those big boys that
- 22:00they got in Uh, well, they actually traded Lively. They actually traded
- 22:04their pick and Lively went to Dallas. That was a big whoops. But
- 22:11we got Cason Wallace. It was kind of a swap, but it was
- 22:14one of those deals you look at it and it just looked bad. We
- 22:18already talked about that. You know, Oklahoma City had no perimeter, D
- 22:22were interior D interior. Well, and that's what they've got to do.
- 22:26I mean they've got then you go look, but then you go look at
- 22:27the series with Minnesota. Minnesota has surprise, I know, but they should
- 22:33have had Rudy Gomeyer and and then Karl Anthony Towns in the middle. It's
- 22:41almost like that every team that played the two series against I'm not counting the
- 22:45Clippers because that was really close, but I'm counting the the two is like
- 22:49they all just played bad. Now give credit to Dallas for the defense,
- 22:53no doubt about that. They've made some adjustments. I think Jason Kidd,
- 22:56you're not a fan of him, but I thought his coaching, he'd done
- 23:00a really good job as far as how he matched up with different players and
- 23:04how he made changes and and and to his credit. You know, they
- 23:08missed the playoffs last year, and they're kind of a team now that could
- 23:11potentially win the whole thing. I don't think they will. I think I
- 23:17think Boston's on a mission. I think it's their year. I think it
- 23:19was beginning to that year. There was a lot of grief and how they
- 23:22did in the playoffs last year. I just I think those guys are old
- 23:26enough now that they've got to prove what they are. And I think Brown
- 23:30and Tatum now porzingis makes some of it. But Brown Porzingis makes a huge
- 23:34addition. I don't know when he's coming back, I know, so he
- 23:38would be huge to get him. What is that? But you've got White,
- 23:44and you've got and then Al Horford, you've got former Thunder. They
- 23:48they are made up of in at this point because they've been winning very well
- 23:56and they've been playing very well without him. Yeah, but they've they've also
- 23:59had the benefit it. Like we talked about if playing some of those teams
- 24:02that didn't have their best stars. Yeah, well, because because Jimmy Bunckets
- 24:06went out before that series, who went out in the well, I don't
- 24:11think they if you go back up, we talked about that last week.
- 24:14Did they play Milwaukee? Yeah? Or did they Ganess went out in Milwaukee?
- 24:18All right, Well, so what do you got? I've got Boston
- 24:22and I'm gonna go five. I think it's a I think it's a very
- 24:23boring. I tell you it's going seven seven and I don't want Dallas to
- 24:26win. But right now, the way that leaning tollunk donkey donkey Dick is
- 24:33acting like a you want to you bitch you about Curry and how much he
- 24:36bet, how much he complains, No, Donkets is the worse. Yeah,
- 24:38Douncak is definitely the worst. Is he's worse than Draymond Green. And
- 24:41I don't like he is whining the whole time. You're exactly Kyrie Irvans out
- 24:45there playing and he's just playing. You don't see Kyrie the other He's pretty
- 24:48quiet and and what he has done I've noticed is always like, oh,
- 24:53touch me in my little hand thing. Kyrie seems to be like taking over
- 24:59the first parts of the games, and then he is relinquishing back to don't
- 25:03in the end of the games, you know, letting him probably being two.
- 25:07Another issue is those two and those far away threes. Oh, I
- 25:15know, it's nuts. Just's that that can't go on forever. God,
- 25:19it can't. But it has been no I know. I mean they'll just
- 25:23be stepped back deep three and it's away from the three pointer and then justush.
- 25:30It's nuts and it's impressive and they deserve everything that they've been there.
- 25:33I mean, they they have done what they needed to be right top of
- 25:37the fifth right now still for nothing and one out, so they are now
- 25:45they're not it goes don Did he just walk? Yeah, someone on base
- 25:55yeah, walked, all right, so one on one out top of the
- 25:59fifth. All right, saga hockey hockey. So let's see what was it.
- 26:07I'm trying to think of the other side, Panthers. Panthers had clinched
- 26:10with the Rangers, uh Saturday, and I got to watch that game,
- 26:15which what can you say about what they have done in Florida? They said
- 26:21that there's a lot of parallels between this Florida team and that ninety eight.
- 26:26I think it was the Florida They remind me a little bit, but Tama
- 26:32actually yeah. But also but also what I found out was they have a
- 26:36dedicated goalie training area, like just solely on developing goalies. And that's what
- 26:45has and that's when they were talking about, you know, Bobrosky having a
- 26:49having a renaissance in his career. It's it's been impressive and he is,
- 26:53well, he was impressive. Last season, eight seed goes to the championship,
- 26:57loses to the Knights. Yeah, bad, loses badly And that was
- 27:03one of those that you did argue that they shouldn't have been in there last
- 27:06year. No, I think that was just that was an America where they
- 27:08beat Boston past Boston well this year they beat Boston and then they went on
- 27:12to take on the President Cup Rangers and they took them out four to two.
- 27:18But he but so Florida never is one obviously, No, they've never
- 27:22won a Stanley Cup, and so what were they talking about? So they
- 27:26did so they defeated they defeated the Lightning, the Bruins of the Rangers.
- 27:30But listen, listen to the stats. I mean of the games Lightning four
- 27:33to one, Bruins four to two, Rangers four to two. They beat
- 27:37the two best teams in the East right there now, Sergey twelve and five
- 27:45in the postseason, nine over nine save average and just two between them.
- 27:51So now you've got Google. I don't want to rate you. You've gotten
- 27:56You've got Edmonton. Now. Last year, like I said, snuck in
- 28:03playoffs. No they did, they but what was it two years before?
- 28:07They hadn't made it? Three? That's three probably hold on, I'm looking
- 28:11up, I'm looking up the winners. Well it ain't Florida. Come on,
- 28:15where is that they snuck? Is it? Well that's Edmonton had snuck
- 28:29in at some point, So Edmonton. That's a good point though, to
- 28:33think about. Paul Maurice has been the league for two decades. He's reached
- 28:37three Cup finals, two with Florida and then Edmonton's christ No block, I
- 28:41didn't know. Edmonton fired their coach mid season this year, and so he's
- 28:48I mean, he's he's just rolling and rolling. Is that experience? I
- 28:52don't know. You got Connory David. He's one of the best players in
- 28:53the NHL, obviously, and and yes he is one of the fastest.
- 28:57He's fourth fastest, I believe. But now, but when you put him,
- 29:02you put him on that team. And that's what I was worried about
- 29:03the Dallas team, because that Dallas team is faster, and your son was
- 29:07saying, no, they're more physical. No, you go look at the
- 29:10stats. Edmonton was more physical. Dallas had better puck handling. And that's
- 29:15that was one thing that worried me coming in because you were because I watched
- 29:19that series. You have to I watched that Edmonton series with Vancouver and Edmonton
- 29:26didn't or not. Yeah, Edmonton didn't really look like they had you know,
- 29:30the puck handling down. Well, they had two speedsters, but the
- 29:33rest of them looked not. Is That's why I thought Dallas was faster,
- 29:38but Auditor had a bad series. Audinger, is that how you pans he
- 29:44had a bad series? And I just I think he did. And uh,
- 29:48but also you know there's no credit given to excuse me, Stuart Skinner,
- 29:55the goalie for Edmonton. I thought he's played a hell oh yes,
- 29:59Skinner's Skinner has been defeated the Kings four to one. Kings weren't nothing.
- 30:03I thought the Canucks win that series four to three. Uh, but they
- 30:07went to the I think they were at the Canucks that Game seven, it
- 30:11was. And what worried me about that was winning that series. You were
- 30:15so beat up going to Game Seven's well, it's any team that goes to
- 30:21Game seven is so tired, so beat up that when you go into that
- 30:25next series. Because Dallas took out who did Dallas have Dallas had taken their
- 30:30series up early. Oh yeah yeah yeah, And so Leminton was fine with
- 30:36with And we know the Kings weren't anything impressive this year, but to beat
- 30:40the Canucks in that deep series and then to beat the Stars four to two,
- 30:44I mean it was impressive. Yeah, and not so I was worried
- 30:48about Dallas winning the Rayceel McDavid the Ford's hymen. I mean it has been
- 30:57well, I don't know how to pronounce that one guy's name, d Dray.
- 31:03It's been fun a lot of hockey I've watched, and the Stars well,
- 31:08actually, honestly, Edmonton and Vancouver was on the best. And then
- 31:14the Avalanche and was a Vancouver who played who have played Dallas? That was
- 31:22game was good. That was That was a series of major har go even
- 31:26more. And then you both tests and I think and Edmonton and Connects with
- 31:32the two best series I've watched, to be honest. Uh. And then
- 31:36we didn't give enough credit to to Florida. I mean they beat the Rangers,
- 31:41and Rangers I think, didn't they have the best record with it?
- 31:42Weren't they the president Presidents Cup winner? But that was and and that was
- 31:49a test, that was a test for the Panthers to get through. They
- 31:52beat the President's Cup winners twice. HM and so I ended up sleeping during
- 32:01the I was asleep because this game came on Sunday early, and I was
- 32:07well, I think the start that was a late goal though for the Stars.
- 32:13And there was never to me, there was never any question that Oilers
- 32:19winning. The Oilers have done that. The oilers have been up and then
- 32:21dropped a game. You have seen that. But yeah you got Skinner.
- 32:25Skinner got one of the three stars along Economy David in that game. So
- 32:31I mean you got to give it up to Skinner. And I forgot how
- 32:35old he is and oh the goalie. Yeah, oh he's ninety eight.
- 32:42So he's twenty five, So he's still young. I mean he's still where's
- 32:45Bobrovsky's in his thirties? Yes he's older, yeah, for sure, for
- 32:51sure. Yeah, So yeah, give it up Skinner. But known for
- 32:55not known for being I mean he's got two almost three, two and a
- 32:59half over two and a half goals. He's not fourteenth in the in the
- 33:05some goals allowed and and you know, tied for twenty fifth shout out,
- 33:08stop, he's not the same percentage twenty fifth. Yeah, he's not been
- 33:14twenty two shutouts. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. So he's not like
- 33:16you're reading it very wrong, but he win, he's third and wins.
- 33:22Yeah, but that doesn't mean that you're that's because you're a great goalie.
- 33:24That means you are you're giving your team, but you're giving your team you
- 33:28look at his statistics otherwise shows you that he's he's not five goals, he's
- 33:34the bottom TOI your goal, But yeah, he pulled it out, but
- 33:37it's played impressive. This is very impressive. Agree, and that's that's uh,
- 33:43that's what they needed at the at the time that they had it.
- 33:46All Right, So I've sawleen Panthers. Yeah above Rossie, I want at
- 33:52this point, I've kind of become a secret Panthers fan and and I've always
- 34:00really enjoyed the Oilers. So I'm kind of torn. Uh I'll put this
- 34:06and I'll put this at a five game, six game. I'm gonna go
- 34:09six game Panthers. I'm taking five game Panthers. Okay, yeah, you
- 34:15so you look at Bob Rowski's uh stats for the season, he's but he's
- 34:22third in goals against, and he's seventh time for seventh in save percentage,
- 34:27and he's a six six shoutouts. He's tied for first. So uh,
- 34:31yeah, you've got to go. I think, and I think the experience
- 34:35is there with that. But I like Conor McDavid. I like the speed
- 34:38of the two players. There's another one I can't remember his name, but
- 34:43but I but I but it's all gonna be on the defensive side and the
- 34:45goal play. Obviously, this for this Florida is just on a mission.
- 34:50I just do. I think they rolled as a as an eight seed last
- 34:53year. They come in now and there and they're gonna be that and and
- 34:58tough ending for the Stars who had hell of a season fifty twenty nine.
- 35:02So is uh is he the guy you're thinking of for the Yeah? And
- 35:07then there's what's the other there's dry title? Yes, so I tried to
- 35:14pronounced yes, yes, but it's all going to be about your defensive stars
- 35:19though. I mean, honestly, when it gets down to this is the
- 35:22physicality Sean? What what You've got Evander Caine on this team? And and
- 35:27he is what is? He is definitely falling off with what he can What
- 35:31is? What's the game start? And who's got the home? I think
- 35:38Florida is Florida. There you go, Let's see when was that Saturdays?
- 35:45When the Saturdays when that series starts? Yeah, Florida, Florida's coming in.
- 35:51Okay, that's game one and that's game one and they have the I
- 35:57don't seem Saturday night we're gonna Florida uh to win. Nice nice, nice,
- 36:05nice, but they don't have like the fan thing like they have.
- 36:09Well there you go and pretty even and pretty even, pretty even. Yeah,
- 36:16but you know that the over under you know, minus one two grinding
- 36:22teams just grind it out and like you said, Skinner is gonna have to
- 36:27play his ass off because Florida's gonna come after and brod Rosky's I mean,
- 36:32I mean, I say, you go look at the injury report and everybody's
- 36:35day to day except for stretchers out and statuers out. But this is this
- 36:39is one of the this is one of the things that you know has gone
- 36:43on and in hockey is you get these guys that are going to these series,
- 36:47you play all these series, and then you get them down to where
- 36:51your injury is just day to day unless you're yeah, unless you're like,
- 36:57unless you completely hurt something, your day to day. At this point,
- 37:00you've got a lot of guys with lower body body injuries. You've got guys
- 37:05with you know, certain upper body injuries, and it's just it's the grind
- 37:09of of going through these playoffs. I don't know any other playoffs that that
- 37:15this happens. Now that it's no doubt, and you know, it is
- 37:21hard for the body. I mean, I'm obviously a football first, but
- 37:24take other ways sports away hockey is so demanding on the body. But it's
- 37:30so fun to watch. Yeah, and it's even better when you don't have
- 37:34a team that's involved. You could just watch it because I mean, I'm
- 37:36not I mean, like I said, I've always looked joined the Oilers and
- 37:40I'm a secret Panthers. Well you kind of so I'm torn right now.
- 37:45I mean, it's the last time Canadian Canadia, Canadian Canadia. A Canadian
- 37:50team is what I was getting ready to say, is one Okay, so
- 37:52okay, here we go. So twenty twenty one was the last time a
- 37:55Canadian team, wasn't it. Yeah? And that was the Canadians, and
- 37:59I enjoyed them losing. Yes, me as well. The last there is
- 38:04that stupid Washington Capitals. When you talk about overrated, that's a venekin.
- 38:08But what a hell of a player. Oh man, we are going back.
- 38:13I mean I think it's been since, uh in the in the nineties,
- 38:15but I could be wrong. Well, you're going back. It might
- 38:19have been the the Canadians. Yeah, it was. Oh, look at
- 38:27the coach. That's how long ago that's been. Wow. Then you look
- 38:31at Pat Quinn, Scotty Scottie Bowmans are still jeez oh man, and look
- 38:42at that Scottie Bowman had taken to Detroit teams right after that ninety eight.
- 38:49But wow, So I thought it was in the nineties. So it's ninety
- 38:52three. Jesus is that thirty years? Thirty thirty one years? Yeah,
- 39:00thirty one years, twenty twenty four. Yeah, wow, wow. Well
- 39:04there you go. And then before that it had been the Oilers in the
- 39:07nineties and a lot of that. Yeah, which you had Wayne Gretzky there
- 39:13with Edmonton and Montreal that. No, No, he was gone, wasn't
- 39:15he. No, he's right there in eighty eight, right there. See.
- 39:19I don't think he went to the Kings till like ninety two, ninety
- 39:22three. One, I don't know, but you can go down the Kings
- 39:24won one. Let me just look at Gretzky because he was a weird trade
- 39:29because I was like, why did you do that? And they won?
- 39:32I mean he did. I'm gonna go ninety two ninety three, but I
- 39:37could be wrong. He was there till eighty eight. Okay. Yeah,
- 39:40So he was. He won that last one and then moved on. We
- 39:45think, yeah, eighty eight to ninety six, How mad they win?
- 39:47Then? Who? I think they only won one with him? The Kings.
- 39:54Yeah he didn't remember. Remember the Kings. Oh well they went they
- 40:07went to ninety three, gotcha? Gotcha? And then I think the next
- 40:13time the Kings won. I don't think he was there. Next time the
- 40:15Kings. One has down here with dryl setters, and there's oh look it's
- 40:20Peter de Boar for the jersey. Who is Peter de Boar now at Dallas?
- 40:27Am I wrong? Yep? Yeah, he's in Dallas. They do
- 40:30kind of. They played for the Admirals, they do, kind of.
- 40:36There's a story behind that move around. There you go, I've got him.
- 40:40I'm gonna take Florida and six. We went way long on you said
- 40:45that Florida five, So we're opposite. I took to Boston and six.
- 40:51Are you gonna go seven? Seven? Take seven? But I took Dallas
- 40:54because they're not a donkey dounk poor. Alright, what are you gonna go
- 41:01to next? Let's do some football a little bit as we get ready wipe
- 41:06up? Hold on you six nothing now I told you we're done. We're
- 41:15not. And see and I thought that was gonna be. What they needed
- 41:16to do was to score big early, so they shouldn't get it, and
- 41:21they're just not doing it. So, uh, we do have the UFL,
- 41:24but let you just jump into that. Let's start with that. I
- 41:30don't have anything for e f L. I'm just all of the e f
- 41:31L this week. Give us the everybody me give us the playoff rundown of
- 41:36this. Uh So the playoff rundown is, uh, the Michigan Panthers at
- 41:46Birmingham and that game is Saturday, three pm Eastern so for PM more time,
- 41:53and it is in Birmingham two pm our time. We go before and
- 41:58I don't know, two numbers, your numbers, and then we got Thera
- 42:04and San Antonio. Remember that was the game. So that at the end
- 42:07of the season, the BattleHawks did beat the San Antonio Bromis to get the
- 42:13number one seed and Birmingham obviously Birmingham already a that game. No, but
- 42:17I mean they won again. They beat him both these teams. That's why
- 42:22I was saying that. The because there's only eight teams. I know,
- 42:25the UFL didn't schedule that the best they should have They should have the top
- 42:29three. Yeah, they should have should have said, should have said,
- 42:32hey, who's the two crap teams? Will play the better ones. We
- 42:36think at the end, it's kind of how they do that because you don't
- 42:39want the BattleHawks and the wins and hey, the only renegades. I told
- 42:47you they pulled out a three game win streak at the end of the and
- 42:50the show Boats won. So yeah, the the only the only thing that
- 42:59had any substance was the BattleHawks Bramas game, and that was for number one
- 43:02seed. That's that's the only game because Birmingham had only lost one game to
- 43:08St. Louis, big home field advantage, and that's where but that's also
- 43:13where the UFL title game is going to be. Really yeah, yeah,
- 43:17they're having the title game in Saint Louis. I think it's one of the
- 43:22larger stadiums. Plus the attendance people, they're huge. Yes, yes,
- 43:27So Birmingham is gonna play Michigan again and then and maybe people rest in some
- 43:31people who knows in the BattleHawks, Ye face the promise. Alright, good
- 43:36deal, all right? That starts this Saturday, Saturday, and then the
- 43:40Saint Louis Brama's game is on Sunday, and now it's on Saturday. And
- 43:46I thought their game was Saturday. I think someday. It's the same day.
- 43:51They're doing it early and late to the same day. I could have
- 43:55swo. You're reading wrong. Just God, I wish this was set up
- 44:00better. Needs to fix it. Yeah, I mean they don't June sixteenth,
- 44:04champion Someday San Antonio Saint Louis is Sunday. Why they're waiting? So
- 44:08what's going on? Must be Uh, one has to be on Fox.
- 44:12One has to be on ABC, remember and when and there must be set
- 44:15when there Well, when there was a purchase of the ufl U USFL by
- 44:21the XFL, Fox still had games. Okay, Well Fox Sports got ABC
- 44:30on Saturday night because sorry Sturday afternoon and then Fox has got it on.
- 44:35Fox has the XFL Championship game and wins the championship. So that's the nine.
- 44:39So the championship is going to be June sixteenth, immediately the next week
- 44:44on Fox. Did you get is good? No? But I will fifteen
- 44:49Yeah, yeah, I took Yes, I just gotta get everyone. Yeah,
- 44:53find out who's going because we gotta get there early to get our jerseys.
- 44:57That's right, sweet jerseys. All right, all right, football now,
- 45:02I want to do some college football before we get into Yeah, I've
- 45:06got college. No, I've got a little bit of time, I know.
- 45:07But you have a huge thing with the NFL right now with wide receivers,
- 45:12and that's going to take you in like an hour. So today the
- 45:17College Football Power Index was released. No surprise that Georgia was number one.
- 45:22What surprise is organ at number two. I thought that was a little bit
- 45:25surprising, and I thought Ohio State. I thought Texas at three was funny.
- 45:30It is weird. They have one of the Caker schedules. But that's
- 45:34why. That's why it's getting in the top twenty five, actually the top
- 45:40twenty if you just want to go there. It's dominated by the SEC.
- 45:45Correct. Oklahoma came in at number eight with the seventeen to two so so
- 45:50guessing and you saw it already been Penn stayed at number six every ten eleven,
- 45:55wins every year and doesn't do shit at the end. But anyway to
- 46:00keep that sweet job, well, I mean, I mean, who would
- 46:01you hire? Who could do better? Who could do better? We don't
- 46:05know. After saving's gone. We don't know who's going to do better,
- 46:07you know, I mean Penn State. I mean this kind of is the
- 46:09year that they should shine a little bit. I think I think Ohio State
- 46:14drops a little bit potentially. I mean the Grecian formula that's coming out of
- 46:22Ohio State. How much you think they pay for that? Well, and
- 46:25you interesting Ryan, but then you've got weakness. But then you've got what's
- 46:32his face as a new offensive coordinator a coach Kelly Brian Kelly. No that's
- 46:40not Brian Schip, Kelly chip Kelly and the same, the same, but
- 46:46no guy, I think that's I think that's that's going to be interesting to
- 46:52see the dynamic now. Jim Knowles, defensive coordinator from OSHU, former Oshue.
- 46:55I mean, he's one of the best and the and that's what's carried
- 47:00that team too. So the top Big twelve team is Kansas at eleven point
- 47:04two, and that's freaking impressive. It is it is. But with OU
- 47:09and Texas leaving, that killed the FPI in the Big twenty down a little
- 47:15bit. Yes, But I mean, what are you really looking at when
- 47:17you talk about this stuff? At USC is eleven point one I mean,
- 47:22and then what was the rumor that I've read a couple articles that they've tried
- 47:24real hard to get out of that LSU. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
- 47:28doesn't surprise it. Snaky Riley, Yeah, Snaky Riley Riley is trying to
- 47:34get out. I saw that, and I was like, that doesn't surprise
- 47:37me because they didn't have a good year this year and I don't foresee them
- 47:40having a good year this year. I'm sorry they didn't have a good year
- 47:44last year. But you see the total compensation which has kind of been off,
- 47:46but it was about twenty million that they had to pay for him because
- 47:51they added the buyout to his salary to give to OU. He was five
- 47:55or six million something like that. I have to go back and look,
- 47:58it's been a minute. But anyway, total compensation on Lincoln Riley was about
- 48:00twenty million because they give the money to him to pay the school. You
- 48:04know what I'm saying, Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know he had
- 48:06to pay. He had to pay, so they give USC gave it to
- 48:08him to pay OU. Yes, so it was about twenty million dollars and
- 48:13you imagine the tax tax crunch there, plus well was he paying California taxes
- 48:16you paying Oklahoma he's playing, he should be paying California taxes. They're paying
- 48:20him while he lives there to pay that off. So that's heavy. Yeah,
- 48:24that's heavy. But hey, they got a beach house. It's cool.
- 48:29So I don't know, I don't know if there's any any surprise to
- 48:31you that that comes out of this. Oklahoma State ends up at a number
- 48:37twenty six seems about right. Actually they should probably should be a little higher.
- 48:43You know, Arizona's coming in, I mean twenty four. Could you
- 48:45look at the drop off and what and explain to our listeners what is this
- 48:49about? This is the football? No, but what is it? I
- 48:52mean, kind of give a rundown about this and this power end day.
- 48:55So this is ESPN's twenty twenty four Power Football Power Index ratings and projections for
- 49:05each team. The ratings so it's all projections for this year, not really
- 49:09last year. In the ratings for the uninitiated include forecast for every team's record,
- 49:16its chances of winning a conference title, and of course it's probability to
- 49:21make the expanded twelve team football national title. Sure, so that's where we
- 49:25go. The teams are rated on offense defense, special teams, and the
- 49:30values representing points per day. So essentially, it's not like the game that's
- 49:35coming out in CAA twenty four or five, not that rating. This is
- 49:40about the prediction of what's going to happen. This is this season, this
- 49:45is the upcoming this season. Yes, And I think that's important to consider
- 49:51because you look at Old Miss how far they have dropped off. I mean
- 49:53Old Miss is in top ten and a lot of the preseason polls, and
- 49:59I thought that was a little bit of surprise. And I thought A and
- 50:00M, who I think is going to do pretty good with the new coach.
- 50:04I think the old regime is truck coming out and I think they're gonna
- 50:07do They're gonna do a lot better. The love of the Lane train is
- 50:12I you know, I think that they're going to be built better, and
- 50:16I think they're going to think that. You love Lane Kiffin because he is
- 50:21hilarious on the twitters x x twitters, well, his dad, his conference
- 50:27in interviews and his dad, you know, propelled that was better than him.
- 50:35The best defensive coordinators all time to Hall of Famer, Hall of Famer,
- 50:38Hall of Famer for sure. So uh, at the top to Tulsa.
- 50:45I know they came in way down here. They're even the JMU.
- 50:49What did they They had Like a negative seven is what it was. We
- 50:52don't think they're going to this Yeah, yeah, negative seven here in the
- 50:55a C A C. I think Tulsa is going to surprise people this year.
- 51:00I hope they do. I'm gonna go at Oklahom State game. It's
- 51:04Inula. Yeah, it's gonna be packed. It gonna be one sellout soul
- 51:08and against him. I just think you look at the the schedule. Oh,
- 51:14but let's talk about as football, I mean big news kickoffs. I
- 51:17mean, my lord, some kickoffs were announced for oh you let me just
- 51:22run down the non conference schedule. Temple six pm, Houston six forty five
- 51:28pm, two Lane two thirty pm. Hallelujah. No more eleven ams.
- 51:34I've got to get tanked by ten to get a buzz going. And no
- 51:38red River you can finish work, Yeah exactly, and red River two thirty
- 51:45this year. And that's the way it should be heard out. It should
- 51:47be that way. No more big kickoffs. It should be red River two
- 51:52thirty. And that's just that's just some of the games. It shows you
- 51:59that movie to the conference. SEC is going to be so much tougher schedule
- 52:02wise, but it's going to be so much beneficial and scheduling recruiting, well,
- 52:08you know what, one of the money, one of the things.
- 52:10It just goes on and on. SEC has perhaps the best uh uh pregame,
- 52:17the uh all the barbecues and what's the word I'm thinking of tailgating.
- 52:24Oh well, yeah, SEC, and and oh you in Texas to get
- 52:28her in Texas. But we did. We we have really good But now
- 52:31we've got to get better because these people travel. And when I say these
- 52:36people travel, I'm talking caravans, I'm talking huge, huge buses. So
- 52:44tentatively people are going to live there forwards three days. Tentatively, our trip
- 52:51this year looks to be Missouri. It's it's what we need, that's what
- 52:57we need to do. And then next year we're going to Oxville, but
- 53:00go to Auburn. Now, nobody wants to do that drive. It's not
- 53:04for me. And and it's it's perfect to because Missouri thinks that there there
- 53:10are our new rival we need to you know, I think they're gonna Missouri
- 53:15thinks are a new rivals. They been playing in the SEC. Oh,
- 53:19yeah, we were, we were. Anyway, I want to talk about
- 53:22it still Missouri. I want to talk about the kickoff. You know what,
- 53:23it's the same Missouri. No, they had a really good year last
- 53:28year, the same, and they're bringing some good players and there, oh
- 53:36there they are number ten Hardness right below us. Sorry, Lois. Two
- 53:43teams we gotta play this year, one at home, one on the road.
- 53:45All right, so we get to see my dad's illegitimate son, Josh
- 53:49Heipel. It's gonna be an interesting comeback from They both have the same size
- 53:53hands in both the same tines hands. All right, let's move on.
- 53:59Well that was Mike. Do you got anything else in college? I just
- 54:02want, I know, I just want to talk about the schedule. I
- 54:05saw the schedule word, thank goodness. I didn't look at Oklhoma State starting.
- 54:12I didn't either. I should we should probably have. They announced anything,
- 54:16well besides a Tulsa game, I know that set time wise? Is
- 54:22it? You know they played Texas, Tulsa and Arkansas this year, which
- 54:29the Arkansas games early? I did see that? Is it at Arkansas?
- 54:32Yes? No, I don't know. Excuse me? What what is this?
- 54:36What is what? Just happened to that is not what I signed in.
- 54:44Well I think that, and and it's it's gonna be fun when oh
- 54:49U gets that turnaround. Not next year either because we saw the schedule,
- 54:52but it just flips, but when we get to play Arkansas. So all
- 54:57right, So they have the Arkansas game set for eleven a m. It's
- 55:00an early game, and it's at and the Tulsa game. Oh, the
- 55:02Tulsa game is and I knew that one game to the Big Twelve. Well,
- 55:08they're now the premier team for the Big Twelve, so you get all
- 55:12the big noon kickoffs. Oh gosh, I mean SD SD s U are
- 55:17not sorry South Dakota State, which is not an easy game to open up
- 55:23with. I mean, not a bad program, no, but due to
- 55:29due to six o'clock ESPN now stuck in the Big Twelve, they will get
- 55:36the big noon shootouts. But as you can see, their times are not
- 55:39set except for this by be a fun game to go to. Right there,
- 55:44Oklahoma State, I didn't realize. You know, they've got a pretty
- 55:46good home schedule. I would like to go watch Utah. I can wear
- 55:50my cameras and jersey and I've got my Utah. Yeah, we can do
- 55:52that. What I'd have to find out what day that is? Yeah,
- 55:57I should be able. Oh yeah, yeah, I'll be off that day.
- 56:00I like to go to that one. I really like to go to
- 56:02that one too. So they really look at the right line when you Oh,
- 56:08okay, so we have the Colorado game set. That's gonna be the
- 56:12yes and that's going to be the vice versa. It is going to be
- 56:15huge next year. This right, this is hilarious. So we owe your
- 56:19schedule set right times, just just the first five, right, but a
- 56:24lot of the times would six. Sorry, but we know we're not having
- 56:28a noon kickoff nothing yet, yes ever do oh yeah, they'll do some
- 56:35yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. If we play Morehead State, we'll
- 56:38probably Yeah, the main will be on a plus. But the Oklahoma State,
- 56:44Oklahoma State's down of the new darling of the the big noon kickoff,
- 56:49so they're going to be competing with Ohio State. Bring the Urban Meyer.
- 56:53Baby, we're gonta get those T shirts about that. Now that Utah Oklahoma
- 57:00State that might be moved. I bet they that's why they're not saying that
- 57:06up because that could be a pretty prime game there. But You've got to
- 57:10get past Arkansas for Oklahmas State first, and then now you watch Utah clmbas
- 57:15state ab up to eleven. If if Oklahoma State loses, you know what
- 57:19I'm saying. Unless that's the primo game, you know, nowhere else goes
- 57:23unless Penn State's not available, you know, or someone like that, a
- 57:28heaven forbid Nebraska exactly exactly. All right, I'm going to jump over to
- 57:34the NFL. Let's get an update on this Yukono you game. It's over
- 57:38six six nothing, I'm done, I'm turning on. It's it's the payday
- 57:43of the wide receivers this year, so year of the wide receiver. So
- 57:47we and we knew this was coming. So you had so many different guys
- 57:57that were up for extensions, and the big one was let's not forget that
- 58:04that there were certain wide receivers that were up that ended up getting traded so
- 58:07they didn't have to pay them that fat money. So you had to let
- 58:12me find out. Yeah, Calvin Ridley was up for that money, and
- 58:15they were like, no, let's go to Tennessee. Yeah, but well
- 58:19we're going to bring in they brought it. I forgot who they brought it.
- 58:21They brought it, but he had an issue too well in cause he
- 58:24didn't like surfer girls showing those football's team. Now what did you come up
- 58:29with that? Spot right? Did they? I wanted the new signings.
- 58:31So obviously today we're talking about Justin Jefferson signs a record. So just go
- 58:37to NFL signs a record extension, four year, forty million. M just
- 58:43did you pull it up? You go pull up spot rack. But I
- 58:45thought I had it and that's what you have it on your phone? I
- 58:49did, That's what it was. My bad. Yeah, shout out to
- 58:53spot Rack. This episode brought to you by Hilltop Bar. It's been ten
- 59:00years since Kenny and Haggard bought it. Yes, our anniversary, ten year
- 59:05anniversary. Get ready for the big party too, it's coming. It's not
- 59:08coming. Trust it's gonna be a local band like Spanking. I think we've
- 59:17got three or four bands that we're gonna try to get together. Oh if
- 59:21you if anybody had sent around for this conversation last Monday, uh Verry Memorial
- 59:25Day. Okay, they were huge plans made by Kenny and his brother.
- 59:30We'll see if they come through. Okay, So off season extensions so far,
- 59:34Jefferson, Wattle Collins, Saint Brown, AJ Brown, Davante Smith,
- 59:37Jerry Judy, Michael Pittman. I don't really put Michael Pittman in. Put
- 59:42Jerry Judy in there. Jerry Judy was traded, yeah, but then re
- 59:45signed, but he got a contract. I don't know why, but because
- 59:49he was traded and he hasn't done so, Davante Adams still has the five
- 59:52year, the twenty eight. But then you look at Justin Jefferson's four year
- 59:55one forty that's thirty five million a year. And then i'm ron sat Brown
- 1:00:00was I think the second highest if I'm not mistaken. Well, yeah,
- 1:00:06so Jefferson and Adams are tied right now. It is on one hundred and
- 1:00:09forty MILI value. Now, Jefferson's getting thirty five mill of season, whereas
- 1:00:15Adams is getting twenty eight milli of season. But Davante Adams is up in
- 1:00:22two years. Got you to sign year in Jefferson's four I'm on say raw
- 1:00:28four he's only making twenty million ish less than Jefferson, but he's also making
- 1:00:35five million ish less in average salary. And you know who's gonna get paid
- 1:00:39though, CD and Jamar Chase, who I think are better. Well,
- 1:00:44let's go. Hold on, now, you say Cooper Cup was up there
- 1:00:47as well, he was, But I'm just telling you that CD and Jamar
- 1:00:54Chase CD is coming. Is he coming off of his rookie year? Is
- 1:00:59this this year? It's that's that's the signing. That's exactly what everyone's doing.
- 1:01:01Yes, all right, so ceedee lamb. Currently his rookie contracts up
- 1:01:07this year. He's got fourteen million, he's making three million again. Now
- 1:01:14Dallas again, Dallas could be a bitch, and you know, but but
- 1:01:19Dallas could be a bitch and then go, well, we'll franchise you later,
- 1:01:22you know. But I think I think they're going to I think they're
- 1:01:25going to treat him right on this one. And I think that honestly,
- 1:01:30could you name name three the best wide receivers in the NFL right now?
- 1:01:37Yeah, Now, Jordan Addison, hold on, now, Justineilliflowers, Justin
- 1:01:42Jefferson, how do you figure him? You got JJ McCartney. Now,
- 1:01:45did Kirk Cousins lead him that favor? Now, he used just a favor.
- 1:01:52He was his favorite receiver. Justin Jefferson was it's gonna be interesting to
- 1:01:58see how he performs. But honestly, who I really think the best two
- 1:02:00receivers are is is I like I like Obviously I like I like him,
- 1:02:09but he fits better with the offense they play. They throw it more.
- 1:02:12But Jamar Chase is kind of my is becoming kind of the guy that I
- 1:02:15think he has good games even when you know, even when Joe is out.
- 1:02:22I know, but I mean even when Joe. But even when Joe's
- 1:02:23out, everybody's aware that you hate the Cincinnati Bengals because you look at T
- 1:02:28Higgins. You hate the Cincinnati No, I don't hate him. You don't
- 1:02:31like their coach, you don't like smoking Joe. I didn't say I hate
- 1:02:36him. I just made the prediction that they'll never make another super Bowl,
- 1:02:39that Joe Burrow would never make another super Bowl. I'm just saying back baby.
- 1:02:46And then you got Wata who signs a big contract, but here look
- 1:02:51at the real value. As Mike Evans when he signed go Down signed a
- 1:02:54new contract, he made it out cheap. And also I think Nico Collins
- 1:02:59did the same thing. Top Briggs. No, I just think Nico Colling
- 1:03:04he's all He's due for an injury and he's ten to eleven years straight of
- 1:03:08I don't even see he's not even on this list. Yeah, because he
- 1:03:10should be at the top, because this new contract's not even through there yet.
- 1:03:15He's making so much money. Elijah Moore is ahead of him. Jam
- 1:03:17you missed him already. Who who am I looking for? Mike Evans.
- 1:03:23Let's see, I don't see anybody who is a washed up has been.
- 1:03:29You're so jealoy, so jelly, so jealous. The guy's been the Godwin.
- 1:03:34I found Godwin. He's there. Yeah, he got re signed.
- 1:03:37Oh, there's Mike Evans, right, there's forty one. He's making twenty
- 1:03:42almost twenty mile less than Godwin. They're making the same amount though. Wait,
- 1:03:45hold on, they're going to back up though, because that the first
- 1:03:47two years are guaranteed, and then they're wait, yeah, wait a minute,
- 1:03:51Wait a minute. Godlin's up this year. Yes, yes, oh
- 1:03:53man, you're gonna have to well, you're gonna have to choose. Well,
- 1:03:58they're going to choose album because he's younger five years. I think Liam
- 1:04:03Coan's new offense. They're gonna put him back on the slot. He's going
- 1:04:05to be way performing. I think Liam Neeson is overrated. So justin Jefferson,
- 1:04:14okay, probably the best. Honestly, I think he is. Mark
- 1:04:18is one of the best. Jamar Chase also the same way. But you
- 1:04:23like the Philly guys better. I mean, you put them in there.
- 1:04:27We're overlooking the Rams wide receivers. I'm I'm not talking about now, you're
- 1:04:32talking about Pooka and you're talking about that, will you too? Neither one
- 1:04:38those two did this year. See what they do next and that's fine.
- 1:04:44Let's see what they do next. I'm just saying, see what they do
- 1:04:46next year, and that's that's fine. I think Pooka was kind of a
- 1:04:50Cooper is overpaid. I'll tell you that, right. He's up to He's
- 1:04:55one of the ones that that's looking at an extension. Tyreek is already wanting
- 1:04:58that money and he because he beats up, he beats up people and he
- 1:05:01got baby mama allegedly what hookers have got to pay Davante Adams, who's quarterbacking
- 1:05:12Raiders? Are we going Minshew? Is that? Is that? Is that?
- 1:05:15It? I don't know, I know that? Is it? Collins
- 1:05:21o'connellconnell or Minshe? Well, they signed Minshew, but O'Connell is still technically,
- 1:05:30I haven't seen anything potential coming there with want to go to the Jets.
- 1:05:36No, I don't think it'd be the Jets. I think the Jets.
- 1:05:40That's his boy, Rogers. Rogers is gonna play maybe one more year,
- 1:05:45but still and they ain't got the assets to provide. And that's what
- 1:05:50the Raiders should be looking at right now, is going give us some assure
- 1:05:56futures, because futures, they don't have a quarterback that that's not an NFL
- 1:06:00quarterback. I like them about it. I got I understand what you're saying,
- 1:06:03but I mean that's not put them in m kirk cousins. You don't
- 1:06:08put them in. Nobody's even coming up in the draft that you really want
- 1:06:12to pull a Dylan Gabriel. Oh you mean next year? Yeah, that's
- 1:06:15what you're looking at. Looking at features God, who would it be.
- 1:06:24That's kind of the guy that everyone's looking at. Uh, he's got his
- 1:06:28daddy in his ear. You don't want to well, yeah, they look
- 1:06:30at the old team. So yeah, yeah, we're gonna see what happens
- 1:06:33to him in the Big twelve. I mean, you saw happening in the
- 1:06:36end of the pack twelve? Would that be twenty twenty five? For what
- 1:06:43draft? Yeah? I think Dylan Gabriel is going to be in it.
- 1:06:46Yeah, uh oh, come on, you're not drafting him number one.
- 1:06:51I know, but I'm say I'm trying to think of quarterbacks that are in
- 1:06:54the damn draft. Let's see, we're just good. Look at pull that
- 1:06:59out. There's a mock draft right there, Sad Quinn, you or is
- 1:07:11Jaln Milroe, Drew al Are, Connor Wigman, Dylan Gabriel, Jackson Dark
- 1:07:17yet take none of this? Just be honest. Well right there, it's
- 1:07:23like a mock draft. This mock draft Tennessee Titans never won. Shu Sanders,
- 1:07:29well him go, and but then the Raiders right there, Carson Beck.
- 1:07:33I mean, I forgot about Carson, But is he that good?
- 1:07:35I just I don't see that. You are always down on Georgia quarterbacks because
- 1:07:41they're talented all around. I just I don't see it. You think of
- 1:07:45him as a Kerry Collins or a Trent Dilford. I just see him as
- 1:07:49average. Was out for mental health. Yeah, and now he's back,
- 1:07:55and he's still gonna back up. He's never gonna do anything. I would
- 1:07:58be more. More's the matter Georgia quarterbacks all time. I'd need more app
- 1:08:02to take Jackson Dart or Dylan Gabriel in that draft. Dylan Gabriels too short.
- 1:08:09Watched that Kansas game, what's that tell you? Well? I was
- 1:08:12there, Yeah, I know we got this and we don't. You were
- 1:08:16drunk, but then you were trying to know. But the house party and
- 1:08:20then the Quinn. I'm not buying the Quinn you were steal. I mean
- 1:08:25everyone's in love with this either. I mean, they've got him projected the
- 1:08:28top ten going on the Giants. That's why I said I'm taking Dylan or
- 1:08:31Jackson. Oh and then the al Our kid. He's on there from Penn
- 1:08:35State. Did you watch him last year? I mean I don't. I
- 1:08:40don't understand. I mean, I think it's almost like the NBA Draft coming
- 1:08:44up this year. There's not that generational talent and it's not the generational that
- 1:08:53so it is what it is. I think you're going to see a lot
- 1:08:58of defensive and often whatever Johnson, No, don't know, oh, in
- 1:09:05and and know you recruitment news we got steel weasel, Yes, transfer from
- 1:09:12Akron. We'll take that any day. Of the week. It's always good
- 1:09:15to have Oklahoma boy. Yes, he played Choctaw chalk Tawl. I don't
- 1:09:23know how you get that, dame, but thank god we lost General Booty,
- 1:09:27but now we've got the Steel Weasel. All right, A couple of
- 1:09:29things. I want to leave it McManus, the punter is or the kickers
- 1:09:32out on that team for all the sexual dip shit stuff I saw that.
- 1:09:38I didn't even know what was going on. I was like, I'm just
- 1:09:40gonna the Bears on the hard Knocks. If we had mentioned that that's going
- 1:09:44to be great. Groomers from Campus on the seven seven said that Kayleb Williams
- 1:09:50ain't doing very good. But I want to end on something, if I
- 1:09:56may your face, No, I just I want to talk a little bit
- 1:09:59about for the w n B A and and and then if you watch it
- 1:10:03and it's it's been it's been high high content on all the shows. And
- 1:10:11Caitlyn Clark, you know, she's getting a bad rap. I fear,
- 1:10:16and I fear it's not you know, people want to put the racial tone
- 1:10:19into that, and I don't know, I don't even think it's I think
- 1:10:23it's just all I think it's all jealousy. They have put the racial the
- 1:10:31uh, sexual bias is in there as well. I've heard that because she's
- 1:10:35because the is a lot of beaver slappers. What I heard that too.
- 1:10:42We don't condone either either opinion. It's just that there was there was another
- 1:10:45thing they threw in as well. And yeah, but my deal is is
- 1:10:49and then Angel Reese comes out and then says, well, it's about me
- 1:10:53too. Essentially, people watch for me too, and that's fine. I
- 1:10:56mean maybe they do, and that's fine, but if you look, but
- 1:10:59if you at statistics, they're watching Caitlyn Clark because you look at the Tendants
- 1:11:05record the game she plays on the road and at home. Well, and
- 1:11:10nobody really and no one's going to take away from what Angel Reese or the
- 1:11:14Kennedy girl that smacked her or Kaitlyn nobody really nobody really, nobody cares her.
- 1:11:19Yeah, nobody cares about that. Say, it's just why don't you
- 1:11:26just enjoy the freedom that you're getting for being more relevant than you were five
- 1:11:31years ago. That's the thing that they need to be doing. They just
- 1:11:34want to keep suckling that tea to the NBA because you know, I'm just
- 1:11:39saying, it's like, why don't you just enjoy what you're doing for the
- 1:11:42benefits you've got from the popularity of them. Now. Another thing is is
- 1:11:46that they are expanding. They're expanding into Montreal or something. I don't even
- 1:11:55keep up with that. But because they've got money now, because people don't.
- 1:11:58They still don't know. But I mean, they're watching the fan base.
- 1:12:00They still don't have money. They're still losing money. Yeah, I
- 1:12:03know that, but they're banking on on what they're doing popularity wise now and
- 1:12:10know what it is. It's a comparison of Larry Bird's popularity when he came
- 1:12:15in helped that really helped propel the NBA. No, I just I really
- 1:12:19think even with Magic there. Magic was a great player in Kareem and all
- 1:12:23those guys, but Larry Bird was a vicious bastard and that's when the NBA
- 1:12:29was fun. So yeah, and no, but the other people are against
- 1:12:33her, and is that what they're building. That's kind of what I wanted
- 1:12:36to get to, is that as is that one of those deals them.
- 1:12:41Is it manufactured? Is this trying to be manufactured or is it reality?
- 1:12:45It is there's a lot there's a lot of articles. There's a lot of
- 1:12:48I'm not saying it is or not. I'm asking the question. No,
- 1:12:51there's a lot of articles. There's a lot of hog heads that are making
- 1:12:54it artificial, that are putting bias and all that BS into it. Say
- 1:12:59instead of just saying, oh my god, people are watching, people are
- 1:13:01paying attention to us. Now let's keep writing that way. No, No,
- 1:13:05we're going to go this direction with everything. Well, I think if
- 1:13:09you look at certain events that are on the lower key and then you've got
- 1:13:12Angel Race, hold on, well you got Angel Race who has won a
- 1:13:15national title. But don't you need but now is playing and no, people
- 1:13:17are watching. Don't you need a bad guy? Though? I mean,
- 1:13:19don't doesn't every are we going to go through this their whole careers? Caitlin
- 1:13:24and Angels I don't know each other. I mean it's there's something there,
- 1:13:29there's something what is Well, there was ship there there at the end of
- 1:13:32the the Iowa l s U game. But I don't make it about Race.
- 1:13:36I really think a lot of jealousy those two. I know at the
- 1:13:42end of the Iowa LSU game there was a lot of BS. I think
- 1:13:45it's some jealousy issues there, I mean, and you want to be the
- 1:13:48top. You always want to be top, and nobody wants to be a
- 1:13:51ball And then you look at people that that the the former olds is what
- 1:13:56I would call them in the w n B A you know, kind of
- 1:13:59ship on her a little bit about oh, she don't know what she's getting
- 1:14:01into this play the defense, and it's like, are you kidding me?
- 1:14:08I mean, I don't know why. I don't know why everyone's shitting on
- 1:14:12her when she's brought some relevance to that league. Not only her. I'm
- 1:14:15not saying it's only her. I'm just saying there's others involved in that class.
- 1:14:20But you got Candae Parker who's played there, and she was one of
- 1:14:23the greatest in the late nineties, early two thousand's greatest basketball player all the
- 1:14:28time. She's still been in there, but it didn't bring that relevance.
- 1:14:31You see what I'm saying. I don't even think that Caitlyn Clark's the top
- 1:14:34rookie. I think if I read that right, somebody else was the top
- 1:14:40NBW NBA rookie. Is it the Well, it's not Angels, it's the
- 1:14:45girl from Stanford it's a girl from Stanford. She's real tall. What is
- 1:14:50her name? I like watching her play too, and I can't even remember
- 1:14:55her name. That's the problem. Is she's good and and she's tall,
- 1:15:00and she plays really damn good. Oh she's definitely tall. You know you
- 1:15:04like those. But but I'm saying is and no one really remembers her name
- 1:15:09because it's uh, but you got the girl from I can't remember. I
- 1:15:14can't even pronounce her name. That's good, Yeah, she's good, young,
- 1:15:18Brianna's older, yeah, junk Well Jones, a piece of color,
- 1:15:28Chelsea, well, we don't know the plumb obviously, gul Lloyd. I
- 1:15:40guess she's good. Why is she even in there? She's horrible? Yeah,
- 1:15:45Britney, this is just this is stuck in there. This is stuck
- 1:15:49in there for sucking bullshit. She's not that good. You want about Britney
- 1:15:55Grunner? Any good? Any good? I haven't kept up honest, horrible.
- 1:16:00That's twenty two from SKYTD diggee. So that was May Night, twenty
- 1:16:03twenty four. That's not freaking for rookies. Why can't I get anything decent?
- 1:16:11The girl from Stanford is the one I'm thinking of. If you'd show
- 1:16:15me your name. I know it's not. No, no, sooth.
- 1:16:24Well, that's what I'm trying to figure out it girls on twenty nineteen.
- 1:16:33My word, hold on, let's here we go. Cameron Brink. That's
- 1:16:39who I'm thinking of, Cameron Brink. She's the top. No, I
- 1:16:43wouldn't. I wouldn't say she's the top man. I mean, she's the
- 1:16:46top performer. But I also I also think that Kaitlin Clark's up there too,
- 1:16:50Angel Reese, She's got some good statistics as far as rebounding. I
- 1:16:56don't think that Kaylin Clark's the top No, no, no, no,
- 1:16:59the top bree this year. No, it's Brink Brink in my opinion.
- 1:17:04But no, I'm just saying, but that's that's she's the pull for the
- 1:17:09people. I got that. I understand marketing. I'm just it's just funny
- 1:17:16how everyone is getting the benefit and then shiitting on her at the same time,
- 1:17:19and there is something going on there. Maybe she's a bad person.
- 1:17:24I don't know. I'm just telling you what I just no, I'm just
- 1:17:28telling you what I see and maybe all that. There's a lot of articles
- 1:17:34out there, all right, I guess so you're done with your let's give
