the New York Knicks. He's a contributor, ladies and
2:33
gentlemen. Ben Lyons.
2:35
Ben, what's up, buddy? What a time to be alive, fellas.
2:39
What a time to be alive, fellas. You know, you're promoting those
2:41
steaks. And it reminds me of Fan
2:44
Appreciation Night back 1015 years ago at the Garden, the
2:49
last day of the regular season when the Knicks weren't making
2:51
the playoffs. They'd give out free food to
2:53
everybody. So you'd see stockbrokers taking
2:56
like 8 John George chicken sandwiches, and that was
3:00
awesome. And now from free.
3:02
Food. In Omaha Steaks to the NBA
3:05
Finals to back on your show. Life is life's amazing.
3:08
I love the hat and and I know a lot about you, Ben.
3:10
You've been on our show before and we like your personality.
3:13
And I told speedy we need a panel.
3:15
We need a panel of NBA guys that love the Knicks and want to just
3:19
like jump out of their chair, jump out of their their roof if
3:22
they can. And, and you're one of the guys
3:24
because I to me, when you look at Nick fans, we are bleeding
3:28
fans. We, we're, we're, we're getting
3:30
stabbed a million million times and it doesn't.
3:32
I don't want to hear about Stephen A Smith.
3:34
Oh, he's a real Knick fan when he gives it.
3:36
He gave up the New York Knicks after Detroit kicked their ass
3:40
in the middle of the season. He's like, I don't think this
3:42
team's going to win, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, Mikhail
3:43
Bridges, blah, blah, blah, blah. And now you see what you see
3:46
what Mikhail Bridges has done against the Cavaliers.
3:48
You see what he's done against the Sixers.
3:50
We have our other guests, a Mr. DJ Juanito, He's going to be
3:53
joining us right now. So we're happy to have him on.
3:55
I want to say this, Ben, I've, I've watched the New York Knicks
3:58
since I was a little boy. I, I was born in 1982, so I'm
4:02
getting a little old there. And I've watched Bad Nick
4:05
basketball for almost 25 years. Carmelo Anthony comes here,
4:09
couldn't get it done. We've seen Steph, Stephon
4:12
Marbury come here, couldn't get it done.
4:14
We've seen all these Littrell Sperwell, he gets to the Finals,
4:17
couldn't get it done. What is it about Jalen Brunson
4:21
that everybody believes this guy is going to get it done?
4:24
Juanita with some man hope the dog is well fed and getting
4:27
rested for game one June 3rd great to see you man.
4:32
But you know there's something about this this new era of NBA
4:36
players that grew up around the life.
4:38
There's so many guys who are the sons of of former players and
4:43
professional athletes. And when that's kind of
4:45
ingrained in you, we've seen all those videos of him as a kid
4:48
doing all those drills. And I'm sure it wasn't all, you
4:50
know, sunshine and, and, and, and, and happiness with his dad
4:54
and the training and competing. And they told that story the
4:56
other day during the Sixers game about him getting cut and
4:59
driving home and Jalen's seeing his dad all distraught.
5:02
And you know, as a kid, your dad's your superhero, no matter
5:05
who he is. But when you see him kind of
5:07
vulnerable, that's those are formative moments in your life.
5:10
So as an athlete who's looking to achieve, I mean, it's also a
5:13
family, guys living up in Westchester, playing golf,
5:16
having kids. He's not in the meat packing
5:18
district looking for Omaha steaks, you know what I mean?
5:21
So it's a different lifestyle for him and this new generation
5:25
of players that that yeah, he's just awesome.
5:28
The whole thing. Guys, I once went to the Knicks
5:30
practice facility to do a shoot with Lee.
5:32
Nail on to play a game of HORSE and I beat him in HORSE.
5:35
That's a true story. You're mentioning all these
5:37
players who fell short. Jerrod Musta.
5:40
Oh, God, Travis, where? Lou Almondson.
5:43
So many guys that look like me, like it's not as terrible.
5:46
It was so bad. You're old enough, dude.
5:48
You mentioned being born in 82. It's fun.
5:50
This new generation like is we were there for the Langston
5:53
Galloway years. I'm like, oh, Langston was kind
5:55
of solid. He had a nice eight-year NBA
5:56
career. All of a sudden we were there
5:58
for Othella Harrington and and Michael sweetie and Doliac.
6:01
And when they brought the Utah Jazz castaways to the Knicks for
6:04
some reason and had the patient and Anderson, $20 million.
6:07
Like that was a tough time. So you're old enough for that
6:11
and this second era of terribleness to now make this
6:14
just so much more. Special Don't forget about the
6:16
Wichita State duo of Cle Anthony Early and Ron Baker.
6:19
You know, and, and throw in some some, you know, there's Landry
6:22
Shamik. Go there with Ron Baker too.
6:24
I think the Landry Shamik. Was a year a couple years after,
6:26
yeah. I, I remember, I remember in the
6:29
80s and I, I was a young kid and I, I didn't really become a huge
6:34
Knick fan until probably 8687. I was five years old and every,
6:38
the Knicks are my baby. Everybody asked me, well, what,
6:41
what is your, your sports teams? And I say I'm a Knick fan, I'm
6:44
an Islander fan, I'm a Jet fan and I'm a Yankee fan.
6:47
And I, I was born a Yankee fan. The 1st pajamas I came home from
6:50
the, from the hospital was a Yankee pajamas.
6:53
So I was, I was, I was born a Yankee fan.
6:56
So I, I understand what it is to win.
6:58
But I also in the 80s when I was a kid, the Yankees had more wins
7:01
but never won. So we all know what the Yankees
7:03
did in the 80s and what they did in the 70s.
7:06
And, and, and it took him to the 90s, mid 90s to win a
7:08
championship. I look at the Knicks and I just
7:11
watching Patrick Ewing, we all know the what happened in the
7:14
draft. A lot of people think that they
7:16
rate the draft. It was the ice card and, and,
7:19
and now that David Stern pulled it out and the Knicks got
7:23
Patrick Ewing and and all that stuff.
7:25
That's why the Knicks have never got another first round draft
7:27
number, the number one draft pick ever since then.
7:30
And everybody knows it. RJ Barrett, the Knicks the year
7:32
that they drafted Porzingis had the worst record and still only
7:35
got the 4th pick. And if you look at that draft,
7:38
they get Carl Anthony Towns and now Carl Anthony Towns is a
7:40
Knick. So we all know the story now,
7:42
Juanito, I, I know a little bit about you.
7:44
I, I, I followed you over the years.
7:46
I followed you over the years. I'm a DJ myself.
7:49
So I, I know a little bit about what you do on the back end.
7:52
But I know you're a die hard Knick fan.
7:53
And my man Nathan told me we're going to bring you on because
7:57
you are excited to come on and, and talk about your New York
8:00
Knicks. I want to look at this team
8:02
right now. And me and me and Q have been
8:04
arguing the whole show about as you should and and he tells me.
8:09
Passionate. Yes.
8:10
We're passionate and we can go at it and I, I want to, if I
8:14
could jump through a screen and grab a six foot six, 280 LB man,
8:17
that's the guy I'm going to do it.
8:19
I wouldn't be this. One I I put him in a rear naked
8:22
chokehold to make sure that he doesn't know how to get out of
8:24
it. But the whole fact here is this
8:26
team. I I think people forget what
8:28
everybody was saying throughout the season.
8:30
Can this team win? Can this team win the big game?
8:33
Are they do they have enough on this roster to win?
8:35
They added Jose Alvarado and they added that.
8:38
Then they they added some pieces at the Trey Dillon.
8:40
But people like, is this enough? Can they do enough?
8:43
But they had the the roster, I believe they had the roster from
8:46
the beginning. The guy that needed to step up
8:48
was Mikhail Bridges. Everybody was throwing him under
8:50
the bus. Oh, he's not worth 5 first round
8:52
draft picks. He's the worst.
8:54
He's can't do this. He can't do that.
8:56
Tom Thibodeau, he didn't want Tom Thibodeau there.
8:58
He was the one that one of the guys that were complaining.
9:00
Get him out of here. I don't want to play for him.
9:02
And then you look at Mike Brown and Mike Brown had to get this
9:05
team together. And then finally, Karl Anthony
9:07
Towns is playing like Yokage. And now you have Mikhail Bridges
9:11
playing like, I don't even know what you compare him to.
9:13
I mean, this guy's playing at such a high level right now.
9:16
He's the, I'm not, I'm going to say everybody keeps talking
9:18
about Jalen Bronson and what OJ and Nanobi's done in the
9:20
playoffs. What Mikhail Bridges has done in
9:23
the last two rounds is incredible.
9:26
It's incredible what he's been doing at such a high level.
9:29
Easy money, sniper, that's what it is.
9:31
No way did. Well, listen, he's shooting,
9:35
he's shooting, he's shooting lights out.
9:36
He's shooting lights out. We never seen this type of form
9:39
from this guy this whole season the way he's playing right now.
9:42
And whatever switch they hit in in the Atlanta series is working
9:45
and it's working. It takes, it takes a village to
9:48
to really put on what they these guys did.
9:49
And you got to commend them and for the amount of scrutiny they
9:52
took over the last four or five years when Brunson came to the
9:55
to the team. I mean, non-stop, every analyst
9:59
from here to the South, from the West Coast, they just dog Brunts
10:02
it from the top, from from ESPN to Fox Sports.
10:05
And that's it's you can't go at a guy and the whole team so
10:11
early on. Yeah, you have to you have to do
10:13
the job. You have to put on, you have to
10:15
say XYZ. You don't think he's credible
10:17
enough. He's a short man, it's a small
10:19
guard, etcetera. But the amount of glazing the
10:24
Knicks have gotten the last several months is crazy.
10:28
All those guys who've been talking crazy about this team is
10:31
now turned, is now the bandwagon, which is crazy.
10:34
I believe that you on that side, stay on that side, Stephen A But
10:38
that's whatever. You know he's not invited to the
10:41
party, but I was just that's his little troll.
10:45
Yeah, it's funny. It's funny how the.
10:46
Diehards don't like respect it and see through it.
10:49
Right. And you mentioned Juanita like
10:50
like, yeah, just, you know, like the the the just Stephen A kind
10:56
of showing up and, you know, jumping on the bandwagon or I
10:59
don't know, man, like I'm not. So I don't remember seeing him
11:02
there, you know, in 2015 to watch, you know, clean Anthony
11:07
early. Like I don't, I don't remember
11:09
that. He's such a busy on.
11:10
You know what's too busy on the LeBron?
11:11
Trap that and he's always out there.
11:14
He's my New York Knicks, my New York Knicks, my New York Knicks.
11:18
And then Kendrick Perkins. I want to give a shout out to
11:21
Kendrick Perkins because the whole season, second-half of the
11:25
season, Kendrick Perkins said that this team can win an NBA
11:28
championship. If there's anybody that is
11:30
giving the Knicks credit for what they've done in the
11:33
second-half of the season, even the UPS and and the ups and
11:36
downs, Kendrick Perkins was like this New York Knick team is as
11:38
good as any team in the Eastern Conference.
11:40
They can compete against anybody in the Western Conference.
11:42
They got the depth, they got the ability, and they got the closer
11:46
Kendrick Perkins. So if anybody wants to give
11:48
Stephen A Smith a little bit of credit, he actually got a right
11:51
guy. He got a guy on a panel actually
11:53
knows what he's talking about. What about what about the fact
11:56
that your guys made it to the Eastern Conference finals?
11:59
You don't think that impacts whether or not you guys have the
12:01
ability to make it to the championship?
12:03
And just why do you guys agreed that Cat has been playing like
12:08
Joker? I think he's been playing like
12:10
the the world's best, like water polo player, like he sets out
12:15
there at the top of the pool and he's, you know, a Dominican
12:18
Republic, he's swimming, he's, you know, doing his thing in the
12:21
pool. And it was so crazy about it,
12:23
bro. He's like he switched up the
12:24
style he came within in game 4, the Hawks.
12:26
And they just made this little tweak in the Ferrari and now
12:30
it's unlocked this like other level of Zelda.
12:33
And he's just awesome and selfless and and we were all
12:38
holding our breath. Let's be honest when he decided
12:40
to try like an NBA dunk contest move like windmill for some
12:44
reason last night he just spazzed out on a breakaway as I
12:46
have 4th foul want to be checked out.
12:49
What was that? That was so he he's awesome,
12:53
man. I gave him a lot of credit.
12:55
Got engaged this year on top of the Empire State Building, built
12:59
a gym in the Dr. the known as the nicest guy.
13:03
Last year I did a fundraiser with Knicks fan TV to raise
13:06
money for the wildlife, the wildfire relief out in Los
13:09
Angeles. He gave us a bunch of stuff to
13:11
raise money for like first one. I like to jump in.
13:15
That guy rocks like I don't I don't care.
13:17
Like all is the memes and all the nonsense, like he's a really
13:21
special player. They said something last night
13:23
in the broadcast, third conference final in a row with a
13:26
with three different head coaches, like for a star player
13:30
of that caliber, that that's really commendable to change it
13:33
up with different styles and different personalities and be a
13:35
leader and keep winning. Like shout out to Cat.
13:37
I love that guy. Great media to you, clearly
13:40
diverted from the answer that quest.
13:42
I love it. And you got to give credit to
13:45
each. Listen, we don't get to, we
13:47
don't get to Leon Rose, Wes, without the the heart breaks.
13:55
We had to deal with Isaiah Thomas, Phil Jackson, We we had
13:59
to endure all those years from each player.
14:02
And it's kind of like giving those guys props because, yeah,
14:05
we had to see what it was in your regime to see what it was.
14:09
All right, this doesn't work. No matter we we had Derek Fritz
14:13
as a coach, no matter what coach came through.
14:16
So we. Had a SEC.
14:18
Yeah, we went. Through it.
14:21
So it's like you sat through the garden through all those years
14:24
or watched games with your friends and family and endure
14:28
all that pain. This is like, yo, man, we, we
14:32
yeah, we're going to celebrate every game.
14:34
Yeah, we're going to celebrate every round.
14:36
I think we we need to because we don't know when we're going to
14:39
get this back. How many years, man, I remember
14:42
vividly in 94. I mean, it was it was bonkers.
14:46
And especially 99. Oh, man, hovers out put out
14:51
tape. I mean, that whole summer, the
14:54
whole I mean, listen, Marcus Cameron was that dude, man.
14:57
I mean, he was in the club 4040 was popping.
15:01
I mean club cheetahs speed, I mean the tunnel, all these clubs
15:06
were all that culture around it. You know, I'm saying punt punt
15:11
had a fire album. I mean, you're coming off 998
15:15
with Matt massive soundtracks to New York at that time going to
15:19
99. I mean, listen, man.
15:21
And plus, coming off 98 spree, Well was we know as a choke,
15:25
choke in the body on a coast. And when we got we we hugged him
15:29
like, let's go, man, Let's, let's let's get this going.
15:31
Let's get this hush hush shit popping.
15:34
Let's go. This.
15:34
I mean, it's go time, you know what I'm saying?
15:36
But I mean, if you don't appreciate now what we see is a
15:41
generational run, we'll never see this again.
15:43
Like this is like, man, I don't know, man.
15:46
The last 24 seconds I posted on my social, Man.
15:48
I almost shed a tear man. Because this is beautiful.
15:52
This is beautiful, man. It's.
15:53
Incredible, no, and I'm so glad you mentioned all those great
15:56
moments in New York City culture, those those
15:59
establishments that, you know, really defined an era that
16:03
music. And I'd be curious, you know,
16:05
for from people of a certain age, what those places are for
16:08
them today and, and, and who those artists are today that
16:12
are, that are connected to this, you know, because you're right.
16:16
Like it was so omnipresent in in the city, no matter where you
16:21
were and who you, you know, you know who you are.
16:23
It was. Yeah, that's, that's really cool
16:25
to hear you talk about those way.
16:26
I'm getting, I'm getting chills and flashbacks to some of those
16:29
spots and some of those albums, some of those moments and, and
16:32
being of, of a certain age. So, yeah, it's a it's a fun age
16:35
to be now going, going through this when you know.
16:40
Yeah, we, we remember how how tough it was and how good it was
16:43
too. We remember both.
16:44
I want to shift gears. I was talking about earlier a
16:46
team building model that I think the Knicks have been very unique
16:48
compared to league of the Celtics and the Spurs.
16:50
The way they built OKC stockpile in the draft picks and all that.
16:53
But the Knicks have done it with a lot of teams that were guys
16:55
that were rejected from other teams, just didn't get enough
16:57
playing time on other teams. Like you think that model is
17:00
something that you think because the other teams adopting now
17:02
you've seen that the Knicks success with guys they didn't
17:04
draft, none of them were drafted in their starting line up.
17:08
Yeah, and his first time in in almost 30 years that they
17:11
resigned a first round draft pick when they resigned, RJ
17:13
Barrett, who they ended up flipping for OG, who was one of
17:16
those guys who you might have said was maybe undervalued in
17:19
Toronto. All ascending players, all guys
17:22
who when they showed up in New York, still had the potential of
17:25
their best basketball in front of them, not guys who were
17:28
trying to hold on to what they once had.
17:30
And that was so much the formula for so long with guys like Steve
17:34
Francis and McGrady and Penny Hardaway and the Kembe Mutumbo
17:38
and all these guys who had success elsewhere, Antonio
17:42
Mcdice, you all these guys and they're trying to replicate.
17:45
But this was ascending players. So that that was a big deal.
17:49
And just fit in combination. They realized that they can get
17:51
guys who were like a little taller or a little, you know,
17:56
more defensively versatile that could cover for some of the
17:59
Brunts and stuff. And then just guys were tough.
18:01
Brunson, you talk about on defense where he leads the
18:04
league in charges. They said it last night in the
18:06
game they said he did below the rim defender and that's like
18:09
equally effective. I thought that was so cool.
18:11
When your best player at any level of the sport is leading
18:14
your team and taking charges, that's a great way to build the
18:17
team. Like that sets the tone.
18:19
Like not a lot of teams have that.
18:21
So yeah, man, it's just like Tetris and like they're getting
18:24
the four level. You're gonna bring up Tetris?
18:27
Very. Part of Zelda, He's doing well
18:28
with the. Game.
18:29
I mean, he's definitely a game guy.
18:30
He's Super Nintendo. What are we gonna play?
18:32
What are we I? Spoke to Like the Hedgehog last
18:35
night. Ben Schwartz, He's like, yo, I
18:36
didn't sit through NBA. Jail.
18:38
NBA and and cus mingus to not go to the finals.
18:42
So you're gonna see Ben Schwartz there.
18:44
I mean, yeah, that was Cat was like an NBA damn.
18:47
Like he's he's Landry Sherman. He's on fire, like.
18:52
That's a video game man. By the way, we are talking to
18:55
SiriusXM NBA Radio Knicks contributor Ben Lyons and DJ and
19:00
producer Mr. DJ Juanito. He's he's a big Knick fan.
19:04
He's on a hot 97. He does so much stuff on the
19:06
back end. He goes Rick, Rick, Rick, Rick,
19:09
Rick that Knicks. All right, I want to look I I
19:12
look at the New York Knicks and a lot of people are looking at
19:14
this roster and everybody says besides, they're starting line
19:17
up. What do they have on this roster
19:19
that can beat the OKC Thunder or the San Antonio Spurs?
19:22
And I think it's proven they got enough on this roster that they
19:26
can be anybody they want. Mitchell Robertson, we've seen
19:29
what he's done against the Spurs, especially in that what
19:33
do they call that? The tournament NBA Cup, the NBA
19:36
Cup. The Knicks win the NBA Cup and
19:37
everybody says, well, they won the NBA Cup and then all of a
19:40
sudden they lose a significant amount of games.
19:42
And then Josh Hart goes on. I forget Jimmy Fallon and he
19:46
talking about Mike and Ikes, and then he calls a team meeting and
19:49
all this other stuff and then all of a sudden the Knicks come
19:52
out of it and they start playing good basketball.
19:54
There's questions with this team, this roster.
19:56
Who's the leader of this team? What is this team all about?
19:59
Mike Brown, Is he the is he the right guy?
20:02
Everybody taking shots? Why?
20:05
The the executives in Leon Rose and I'll say this about Leon
20:08
Rose. I want to know you guys opinion
20:10
after this. Leon Rose.
20:11
There were a lot of questions what he did in the offseason.
20:13
Why didn't he keep Tom Thibodeau?
20:15
Why did he bring in Mike Brown? There was a lot of questions to
20:17
that. Mike Brown, even though he's
20:19
gone to a championship, he lost with the Cavaliers.
20:22
He's been a part as with the Spurs, he's been a part of the
20:25
Golden State Warriors, but he's never done it as a coach.
20:28
And he went over there to Sacramento and he got fired
20:30
after, what, a year and a half? And he won coach of the year.
20:33
And we all know what happened over there.
20:35
And if people were questioning, can he work with young players?
20:37
Can he do this, Can he do that? Mike Brown has proven himself
20:40
enough this year that he can do and work with anybody he values
20:44
to be good. I want to know both of you guys
20:46
opinion. Leon Rose to me, everybody keeps
20:49
giving a lot of credit to Jaylen Brunson, a lot of credit to Mike
20:52
Brown and Carl Anthony Towns and all the guys on the team.
20:55
The real person that should be getting all the credit for all
20:58
the fans that were booing, booing the New York Knicks.
21:01
Yes, this is a guy, Leon Rose. He put this team together.
21:06
He put it on his shoulders. He built this team at Worldwide
21:09
W. He put all these executives in.
21:11
Everybody was questioning. He's an agent.
21:13
He worked with Carl Anthony Towns, Devin Booker.
21:16
Can this guy put this team together?
21:17
He doesn't know anything about being an executive.
21:20
I think this guy has proven himself to be one of the great
21:22
executives in New York sports history.
21:25
Your opinion to that? Juanito, the floor is yours.
21:31
I mean, I mean, he still has to get over that hill.
21:35
He still got to win the chip. You know, Cashman bought a chip
21:38
with the Yankees. You still got to.
21:40
You can't. It's like saying you trying to
21:42
compare Brunson to the Derek Jeter demeanor everyone needs.
21:46
They need to win. I'm not a Derek Jeter fan.
21:49
Just so everybody knows, I was never a Derek Jeter fan over the
21:52
years. I'm not.
21:53
I'm not. No, I'm not saying Derek Jeter
21:55
is 1 is not one of the greatest shortstop.
21:57
We're going to get our we're going to get our check, if you
21:58
don't mind. Crazy, yeah, but.
22:02
I'm just not. I'm just not.
22:05
I think, yeah, you got to credit him, but also you got to credit
22:07
the first big draftee there or the signee was Randall.
22:15
Randall really start off to the whole second tier of this whole
22:19
wave without Randall, that piece, that essential piece.
22:22
It's kind of like Stoudamire. Stoudamire was an essential
22:24
piece that started that run that were brought in mellow.
22:27
Randall was that essential piece.
22:28
But to to your point, to Leon Rose, I I think he's pure, pure
22:33
strategic genius. You got to think you got to be
22:35
that way to to to have the cojones to buy on these players
22:41
and going, you know, we're almost full Villanova Knicks
22:44
until, you know, they traded out Divincenzo.
22:47
I wanted to see the whole Villanova.
22:49
I don't know if you guys are in the back end.
22:51
There was definitely they they didn't want to promote the
22:54
Villanova team. Yes, because that was it created
22:57
some friction. But I definitely wouldn't mind
23:00
seeing the whole Villanova squad on on it.
23:02
You know, like when it I mean even chance was another play
23:06
that I wish she was still on. But listen man, I am happy he
23:10
also where we at right now. DJ Mr. DJ Juanito, I just wanted
23:13
one. I want to tell you something, go
23:16
back to Donovan Mitchell. They had a decision to make.
23:19
It was either Jaylen Brunson or Donovan Mitchell.
23:22
He went with Jaylen Brunson. A lot of people questioning
23:25
that. Why would you bring a second
23:26
round pick? He really I did.
23:28
He did help Dallas go all the way to the Western Conference
23:30
Finals, but is he good enough to lead A-Team and be the guy?
23:34
Yes, he did in Villanova and Donovan Mitchell was sitting
23:37
right there. He wanted to be a Nick.
23:38
He grew up a Nick fan 45 minutes away from Madison Square Garden
23:41
and he chose he chose Jaylen Brunson.
23:44
That is pure genius because. Well, Joe, what?
23:47
There's winners in New York, right?
23:49
There's winners, right? We, I'm as clearly there's
23:51
Yankees and there's Mets. Now, Donald Mitchell is purely a
23:55
Mets fan. So do you consider him as a
23:57
winner? No, he's played.
23:59
He likes the Mets. Like there's this difference.
24:02
There's there's. We could tell there's.
24:04
This division in New York, man, let's be clear, man, there's
24:07
Giants and Jets. Oh, don't you go that route.
24:10
Well, I'm just, I'm just don't you go that route?
24:12
Already rubbed it in with the Mets.
24:14
Yeah, there's Islanders and Rangers and devils like this
24:18
division like you either this side this side, but and there's
24:21
this goes to those fans who wear those Yankee slash Mets hats,
24:25
Eric Adams. You know I'm saying like you
24:28
know, I'm saying that you can't wear that two teams on like
24:32
that. That's no, I don't get as
24:34
fashion Eastern whatever man you gang green or your Big Blue, you
24:38
got to pick a you. Never.
24:40
You never brought up the Brooklyn Nets.
24:41
Now that's, that's pretty interesting.
24:44
I said, OK, I I was waiting. I didn't, I didn't hear that.
24:47
I mean, they should. Go back to Jersey, but whatever.
24:50
There's a rumor of it. They're trying to push for it
24:52
apparently. No, I you mentioned rumors.
24:54
I did hear this is I heard this like, you know, the viewing
24:57
parties and not let them do it at the Garden.
24:59
They did at Radio City, but now it's the finals.
25:01
Like you could do one at Barclays and probably sell it
25:04
out. Like if you needed something for
25:06
the road games have game one and two have like the Garden and
25:10
Barclays like why not? It'll be a better average.
25:12
Of 10 for the. Nets playoff game.
25:15
You know, spread like kind of thin out some of the mob maybe
25:18
in the city and spread it out a little bit.
25:20
I mean, it is. It's turning into Gotham
25:22
already. Guys.
25:23
I was a little late logging on here because I feel like all
25:26
like the Joker's friends were trying to like take over the
25:29
train and. They were all wearing.
25:31
You know, McHale Bridges jerseys and stuff like it's it's
25:35
starting to feel like Gotham out here a little bit.
25:37
So I wonder if they'll be like a keep the peace moment, if
25:40
they'll have some kind of like kids fest over the weekend to
25:42
remind everyone that their children involved or like, you
25:45
know what I mean? It's just like, calm down, like.
25:48
Ben, you mentioned, you mentioned.
25:50
Jersey. Did you hear that Jackson Dart,
25:53
He was over there and we're going to be talking about that a
25:55
little later. Jackson Dart announces Donald
25:58
Trump and his jersey went from not a selling jersey to the
26:02
number one jersey sell by the end of the week.
26:05
He sold, they sold almost 300,000 jerseys.
26:08
Him announcing Donald Trump. It's crazy.
26:11
It's absolutely crazy how one move and one decision can sell
26:16
300,000 jerseys it. Was brave.
26:19
It was good. I mean, obviously you didn't get
26:20
that type of opportunity to introduce the president, but
26:23
from a brand stand, what's bigger than the most powerful
26:25
men in the country and when? Jose Alvarado hits the game
26:29
winner in the NBA Finals to give the Knicks the first chip, the
26:33
hometown kid, and then the then then Puerto Rico's own.
26:38
Jose Alvarado is going to be the highest selling jersey in
26:41
America and that's going to be an awesome moment.
26:44
Jose Alvarado. Same people who bought those
26:47
Jackson Dart Jersey's cop though how Alvarado when he hits the
26:50
shot to win. Jose Alvarado will finally give
26:53
the Puerto Rico its official statehood as the 51st states.
26:56
So having a time, hey, Speaking of basketball, having a tough
26:58
time Puerto Rico, they lost two games to Jamaica, you know, a
27:02
shameless plug working on this documentary about the Jamaican
27:05
national basketball team and they just lost two too close,
27:09
too close ones to Jamaica is the biggest upset and one of the
27:12
biggest upsets in FIBA history. So Jamaica on the rise to
27:15
getting it done in Puerto Rico. So.
27:18
And it's crazy, and I know there's a lot of Knick fans and
27:20
I know Q is not a Knick fan. He could say whatever he wants.
27:23
He's a Celtic fan, he's a Celtic fan.
27:26
So he'll sit there and throw the Knicks right onto the bus
27:28
whenever he can. But I.
27:30
His hat matches the jersey on the wall, so like.
27:32
That's very Yeah, he's. Very New York, He's not even.
27:35
A Yankee fan, He's a Mets fan. I'm a new, I cover the New York
27:39
sports. I know you got to pick a sign,
27:41
but I we cover all New York sports.
27:43
I show love to everybody. He's a fan of the first in the
27:45
15. He tortures me, ladies and
27:47
gentlemen, Mr. Quinton Couples who played for my New York Jets,
27:51
who was a first round draft pick by the New York Jets, is wearing
27:55
a Yankee hat when he's a Met fan, ladies and gentlemen.
27:58
So let him sell it. Let him sell that, ladies and
28:01
gentlemen, you go. I'm just throwing it out there
28:03
for Quinton Couples to know that he is a fake but.
28:06
I listen, know where we stand. Yeah, they're losing.
28:10
They're losing. They're standing, They're
28:12
standing. Somewhere.
28:14
So, so playing playing with The Jets, like was there a
28:16
relationship at the time with like The Jets and Knicks?
28:19
Did you go to games? Were guys at your games like you
28:22
see him in the clubs or anything or?
28:24
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean, I was in a big cover.
28:27
So they used to have these, like, exclusive parties, not
28:29
necessarily clubs. And so, yeah, I thought I was
28:33
telling Earl last night about the time I bumped into Spike
28:36
Lee. That's right, in Miami, when
28:38
Miami won the championship. He sneaks into my session and
28:42
and starts drinking like, you know, out of nowhere, just start
28:45
taking shots like, you know, my my, my manager at the top big
28:49
no, like he was just he didn't think it was real life.
28:51
He was just like, yo. And so I was like, not let him
28:54
have fun, man, Let him have fun. He's in my.
28:56
Real Nick Fan. You see Miami win a
28:57
championship, he's gonna push you to the edge.
28:59
I don't get it right, you know. He was in there.
29:02
Yeah, he would. I would be different.
29:04
I'd be telling Spike, you better buy me another bottle.
29:06
I mean. Mister man, like, oh man, I mean
29:09
if he was younger, if I was up in there, you know, the 90.
29:14
I don't drink. So when I go out to the clubs,
29:17
I'm the crazy 1. I don't have to drink.
29:19
I, I watch people get drunk. I'll buy a bottle just to watch
29:22
people getting wasted. And I'm standing there.
29:25
Everybody says, well, is, is he on some kind of drug because
29:28
he's the one standing on his head or some crazy thing that
29:31
he's doing. So I I'm a little.
29:33
Know the Knicks. The Knicks used to go to clubs
29:35
here in the city and the doorman would be like, yo, your coach is
29:38
inside, maybe you guys don't want it now.
29:40
That's true. That happened.
29:41
Like. You know what I mean?
29:43
It's like they, they, they're not far from that.
29:45
I'm I remember once time seeing Clarence Witherspoon in a club
29:48
and I started bullying him. I was.
29:49
Like Clarence Witherspoon. Yeah, I was in a in a club
29:53
called Tonda on Park Ave. I remember I, I remember that.
29:57
I remember that. It's Witherspoon I started
29:59
bullying. So funny story is, is Rick DPS,
30:02
Rick Dipietro and me don't like each other.
30:05
We played hockey against one another.
30:07
So are you a nice? Guy, come on, man.
30:09
He's not as nice as you think. He started one.
30:12
You don't know him like I know. So funny story is I was DJing at
30:16
a club in Huntington years and years ago and he was playing for
30:20
the Islanders and he brings a bunch of girls and a bunch of
30:24
guys to the the front door. And he's like, he's talking to
30:27
the bouncers. Like I'm Rick De Pietro and
30:29
they're starting goalie for the New York Islanders.
30:30
And he was like, yeah, that doesn't mean that you're going
30:32
to come in. So I I find out from one of the
30:35
bouncers, the security that was standing right next to the DJ
30:37
ING booth, he's like, you know, Rick De Pietro wants to come in.
30:40
So I whisper to him. I say, don't let that mother,
30:42
you know what? Come in.
30:43
Do not let him come in. Do not let him come in.
30:46
So this guy standing outside, he's like, come on, man, I'll
30:49
throw you, I'll throw you 100, I'll throw you 200.
30:51
That's it. So I, they, they were telling me
30:53
and I was like, I don't want this guy to come in here.
30:55
I don't want, I'll listen. My, my backlash to Rick Dipietro
30:58
was just us playing hockey and, and us going back and forth.
31:02
He me and him just didn't, we just didn't like each other.
31:05
It was, it was like war when we were out on the ice.
31:08
Now, personally, if we were standing next to each other, I,
31:11
I don't know what would happen. I mean, lights would flare and
31:14
there might be fireworks. I don't know.
31:16
Maybe we'll just go up and say let bygones be bygones.
31:19
We're we're grown man. I think, I think your producer
31:21
needs to reach out and you need to get him on the show.
31:23
I think, yeah, that's that's where this is going.
31:25
I think we need to figure it out on the show.
31:27
I'm sorry. I survived that under business.
31:30
Thing listen, be fired on this business thing.
31:34
We could get one. One will be like the the meet
31:37
middle guy. He'll be the middle guy.
31:38
He's like. What's gonna create the secret
31:40
entrance? He'll be the reference three if
31:41
anything turns out, you know, he'll be spinning.
31:46
I mean I don't know if we're going to do any like rapping or
31:48
something like that, because I I definitely will torch him when
31:51
it comes to, you know, some rhymes.
31:54
But without a doubt I I respect the the rap game.
31:57
I respect the DJ ING game because I know it's everybody
32:00
thinks they could be a DJ. You know this one everybody
32:03
there's DJs out there, Everybody thinks they're ADJI call them
32:06
button pushers. So they go out there.
32:08
Oh, I got Serrado. I got this.
32:10
I got that. I can DJ.
32:11
They don't know music, Juan. They don't know music.
32:13
Yeah, you just brought up Jay-Z. Some of these kids don't even
32:16
know who Big Pun is. Big L, OK.
32:19
They have no idea what these kids are.
32:20
What what what these rappers and and what they did for me, Big
32:24
Daddy Kane. You know, when I'm growing up as
32:27
a kid and I'm sitting there, I'm like, you don't know who Big
32:29
Daddy Kane is. You don't know who Big L is.
32:31
You don't know who Big Pun is. I mean, get away from me.
32:33
Don't talk to. Me.
32:34
All their rappers now are named Lil.
32:36
You just name a guy's name is. If you're not.
32:44
Kendrick Lamar and you're not Drake.
32:47
Nobody cares anymore. I'm like, I listen to Drake's
32:49
albums, I listen to Drake's. I want to know your opinion.
32:53
We're going to go off set. Juanito, you're a big, you're a
32:56
big. You're DJ.
32:58
You listen to both, all three Drake albums.
33:02
What did you think of the albums?
33:04
Do you think that those three albums can compare to Kendrick
33:08
Lamar's one album, Yes or no? All 40, No, it's like it's like
33:13
his average is like 18 to 43. Like it's you got how many hits
33:19
he has on that on all three collectively.
33:23
But then again, it's like for me, I there's bangers on each
33:26
album. Like there's vibes on each
33:28
album. If you want just like ride in
33:30
your car, you get the ice. You want something vibes for,
33:33
you know, kind of like a filter up tempo and Caribbean.
33:36
You go a little bit with maid of honor.
33:39
But if you want you go ladies vibing, sexy, cool in the whip
33:43
after, you know, there's, there's, there's real thugs that
33:46
I know they don't listen to rap and listen to R&B, right,
33:50
because they need to calm their serenity.
33:53
They go to the Hybidia album. So they're going to go to that
33:56
vibe. So it's, you know, I think Drake
33:58
put on a a massive class of how to put an attention getter on
34:04
one particular focus. It's just him.
34:07
Iceman was the breaker. They got 2 albums that I think,
34:11
you know, it's goes to show you that, you know, you need to
34:13
really pay attention to what these artists doing nowadays.
34:17
But yeah, I I enjoy it. Not all of it because
34:20
something's name for me yeah, but I could pick if I put my own
34:24
players, I'll put like 18 records on one thing.
34:27
Call the day for me. That's just my taste.
34:29
But then if I'm playing the club, there's more records that
34:32
I might have to play and digging and play.
34:34
So it's you ever you really got to cater to what you hear and
34:37
what people like and plus, you know, like everyone's age is
34:41
different on this on this on the show.
34:43
So if I'm going am I playing at like I was playing at this party
34:49
and had some some some actresses in there.
34:51
I can't remember. They were like, and I play like
34:53
more up tempo records and I'm going to another party that's
34:57
more hood and it's and it's more like more strip club vibes.
35:01
I'm going to the Iceman. You know what I'm saying?
35:02
You got to play different to your crowd.
35:04
So, yeah, Speaking of strip club, I don't want to take you
35:09
off topic, but you guys did hit a point about what coach was at
35:14
a club. So one particular time, I'm Dean
35:16
at this club called Suz Wine, which is in Mount Vernon and
35:19
it's no longer there. It's a strip club, notorious
35:20
strip club. Big puns.
35:22
Been there. I met Chuck Knight at Sue's.
35:25
I used to do parties with the late great DJK Slade.
35:29
We stole this party's called Straight.
35:30
Some parties, recipes, models. Rest in peace.
35:33
These models that he found and put on and put in his magazine,
35:37
which I was helping him and, and, and we did these parties
35:42
and one night we're doing a party and out of nowhere, and it
35:45
kind of goes to his brand, who he is as a player was the
35:50
analytical guy, James Harden. I got a picture.
35:56
I have a picture. It was like, it was like when he
35:59
was playing for Houston, like his first year in Houston.
36:04
So he came to New York, he's playing the Knicks and he was in
36:07
the strip club goals to show what his brand is all about.
36:11
He OK get his bag. He's spending a billion in the
36:14
strip club, so yeah, he's definitely one of those tricking
36:18
it tricking while he got. Ben Ben looks like the type of
36:21
person that shakes it and bakes it at the strip clubs, right He.
36:23
Looks. Oh yeah, not a big fan of the
36:25
adult. Not a big fan of the adult that
36:27
way, you know, not not really My.
36:31
He's a country. He's more of a country guy.
36:33
He's going to Tennessee. He's going to go dance to the
36:36
country music, right? Yeah, like, you know, it's it's
36:42
like like hearing Juanito talk a talk about pun and talk about,
36:46
you know, all these artists that you mentioned era.
36:48
Like I'm waiting for the rappers from today to start shouting out
36:51
our Knicks. Like where where are the guys
36:54
today who are where would I go? I'm some of the guys like from
36:59
today know. Like they know what I mean.
37:02
Please, they knows at the Nets games.
37:04
Let's be honest, I know they're feeling good today.
37:09
I but like come on, like I want to hear it in like a lot like
37:13
we're not hearing Nick's references all the time.
37:16
I'm the Drake album. You guys are talking about you
37:17
here, obviously Derose and stuff that's different.
37:19
But you hear Steph Curry, shouts LeBron.
37:21
You hear a lot of references to guys.
37:24
Start hearing some, you know, I mean some Ariel Huck, Porty.
37:28
Who would you use on that? Team Shorty of big like Ariel
37:32
Huck, Porty, like come on, you know.
37:37
I'm gonna give you, I'm gonna give you some.
37:38
If you're not aware of this artist, but he's a New York
37:42
bred, born in Hell's Kitchen. He's out and about, has a great
37:46
project. Marlon.
37:47
Craft more than craft, man. That's my guy.
37:50
Come on man. Marlon Craft, I had him on my
37:51
show like 8 years ago. I was talking to him today
37:54
actually. That's a real New York Knicks
37:57
fan who who's a great musician. His live live events with Method
38:01
Man popping up and a bunch of people like shout to Marlon
38:03
Craft man. And that Joe French Montana got
38:08
a got a record with Max B out. Great project I met.
38:12
Max B at the Nick game the other night, by the way, we've got
38:16
fantastic. Album.
38:18
Fantastic album by French Montana.
38:20
It is a fantastic because I wasn't a big fan of his last
38:23
album. I I really wasn't.
38:25
But this album's more like you can vibe to it.
38:27
You could really vibe to it, isn't?
38:29
One of those artists who like you would see at HMV on 72nd,
38:32
he'd be in like the world music section and he comes out with
38:35
stats like like, Oh yeah, I'm the most downloaded like artist
38:39
ever. Me and John Lennon, you're like,
38:41
what are you talking about? Yeah, yeah, I got a billion,
38:44
billion streams like every day and and parts of the world
38:46
you've never been. To I like Juanitos.
38:48
Where's where's J. Cole?
38:49
Where's he how about Dave East? Why is he coming out?
38:52
I want to. Say Cole album is on fire broke
38:55
that album Fire from top to bottom fire is.
38:58
Not fire. Yeah, you can't listen.
39:00
Well, they got a great project. Yeah, you really got to.
39:06
Do that dude, dude, J. Cole to me is one of the most
39:09
underrated rappers of all time. People don't realize I, I think
39:13
if you, you put the, the top Goliaths right now that are in
39:17
the game that are still rapping. I, I mean, I listened to Nas's
39:20
last album. What was it a year or two years
39:21
ago? It came out last year.
39:23
I think it was last year it came out.
39:24
I wasn't, I wasn't really big on it.
39:27
The stuff that these guys are coming out with now I I
39:29
question, but J. Cole, whenever he comes out with
39:32
an album every four years, the albums are fire.
39:35
They're just fire. He tells a story.
39:38
He drives you into the next story that he is going to tell
39:41
you. And it is it's fantastic.
39:43
Really is Funny story is I went to a summit and Stephen A Smith
39:47
was there and funny story, funny story.
39:52
So I. Quick found found the Marlin
39:54
Craft photo. Look how young he is on the
39:56
podcast. Wow.
40:01
Crazy. Sorry.
40:01
So no, no, no, it's fine. So, so I was, you know,
40:06
everybody's asking him questions and we're we're in the middle of
40:08
the summit and everybody says go ahead, ask him a question.
40:11
And so I spit out a J. Cole line and he was like, he's
40:16
like, why you spinning out a J. Cole line?
40:17
And I said, because it reminds me of you.
40:19
It reminds me of you, says how could you put two and two
40:22
together? I'm nothing like Jay Cole and
40:23
all this other stuff. That was my I brought into Jay
40:26
Cole after the interview when they told me Stephen A Smith
40:30
wanted to speak to me after the thing 'cause he wanted to ask
40:33
me. Why I brought that line up is
40:34
because I pretty much, you know, with, with that, that rap, that
40:38
the, what he said in that line, I, I was waiting.
40:42
I like I wrote it down like. He told him he had a crooked
40:44
smile. He's got more than a crooked,
40:47
he's got more, he's got more than a crooked smile.
40:51
OK, but that's a whole other thing.
40:53
I don't understand. Sometimes when I, when I'm
40:55
around some of these guys like Chris Russo, I'm a good friend
40:58
of Chris Russo. Sometimes when you're around
41:00
him, he, he tries to act different.
41:02
He, he's not the same person when you're sitting down at A,
41:05
at a lunch room table and having a conversation with them.
41:07
And I think because they, they believe who they are, they're
41:09
like, oh, I'm Chris Russo. I'm, I'm the Mad Dog.
41:12
You see, if somebody came up to me and asked me a silly question
41:15
or comes up to me and says, Hey, I want to ask you about this and
41:18
I want to ask you about that funny story.
41:20
I was, I was in a dress. I, I was looking for a dress for
41:23
my girlfriend. She's, she's going to like this,
41:25
this wedding today. So we go in and, and these kids
41:28
are talking about the Knicks. I hear them talking about the
41:30
Knicks and I'm like, I have a conversation with them.
41:32
And then one of the kids actually is a fan of our show.
41:35
So he didn't even know who I was until I started screaming.
41:39
I wasn't screaming at my girlfriend, OK?
41:40
I was, I was telling her, just take the dress.
41:43
It looks great. And he says you're you're that
41:46
loudmouth guy. And all of a sudden he's like,
41:48
oh, I'm, I'm in sports management, I need an
41:50
internship, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
41:51
And I, I sent it to my executive producer, Aaron.
41:54
I said, this guy wants to work for us, blah, blah, blah.
41:57
So it's funny when you don't, you don't want to interact with
42:00
people. You you start talking and
42:01
Brittany was like, here we go. We're going to be here for 1/2
42:04
an hour, 45 minutes talking about sports and the New York
42:07
Knicks, She says. You're here to look at a dress
42:08
with me. I'm like, I picked the dress for
42:11
you. I like it it, it's nice.
42:12
It's beautiful. You look sexy.
42:14
Those Mariah Carey jersey dresses sexy the Knicks Mariah
42:18
Carey jersey dress. Dude, she look good, but it's
42:21
never good enough. You know a woman?
42:23
Come on, Juanito. You know when you're with your
42:25
woman, you're walking around and she's like, oh, you want to go
42:27
shopping with me? No, I don't want to go shopping
42:29
with you. I do not want to go with you,
42:31
'cause I'm going to be here for four hours looking at the same
42:33
freaking dress. That's what she did to me.
42:36
So I just want. To part of the job, man.
42:37
You signed up for it soon. That text I did you pardon.
42:41
Sign up for the job, man. Do everything that comes with
42:43
it. So I want to, I want to go with
42:45
both of you guys. We're going into this series,
42:48
we're going to the Finals, OKC or the Spurs.
42:52
I'm going to go with you, Ben first.
42:53
Who do you want to play and why? I.
42:56
Don't know, man. What is that like I what?
42:59
Come on, bro. Like I just was showing you like
43:02
crazy. Like we're talking like Gerard
43:04
Mustaf and we're talking like, here's a photo I have in my
43:07
phone of the LeBron block. This was Mario Azonia on LeBron.
43:11
I thought that was the Super Bowl.
43:12
Like, I don't care who they play, like what they'll play
43:15
either team. I don't think you could ever be
43:17
like I want to face Victor when Benyama.
43:21
I mean that guys awesome and you're like, oh, I want to face
43:24
the two time MVP defending champs.
43:26
I mean, you ought to beat the best.
43:27
I guess It's awesome either way. It's awesome either way and
43:30
they're playing at such a historic clip that it's going to
43:34
be hard if there is some type of drop off back to some sense of
43:38
normalcy because what we're watching over the last 11 is
43:41
historically ridiculous, right? So it's like if it falls back to
43:45
normalcy, but still really high level basketball, are we all
43:47
going to freak out? They lost in a month.
43:50
Like I don't know who they play. I I don't know if they're going
43:55
to keep playing like this either way.
43:57
And if they don't, is it? Can they still find a way even
44:00
if they're not the greatest analytic team despite Kenny
44:03
Atkinson's numbers A lot, right? Like you start talking about, I
44:08
used to think when I said this on another like 2017 Warriors
44:12
were basketball Nirvana to me. Remember there was that play
44:14
where they had like A2 alley oops and the ball never touched
44:17
the floor and like Katie Young, it was crazy, right?
44:20
I now the Knicks numbers, Tom Havas Strauss breaking them
44:23
down. They're like better than the 27
44:25
Nirvana Warriors. Like how are they unlocking
44:28
this? So they're gonna fall back.
44:30
They have to. Can they still find a way when
44:33
they're playing at like a level of mortals, you know?
44:37
How about you, Juanito? Man, I, I feel that no, what, no
44:45
matter what uniform goes against the Knicks, we're going to smack
44:50
them up. You know, I I game one against
44:53
Cleveland, I was a little, I was like, damn, man, maybe that
44:56
break didn't really do him justice because maybe they're
44:59
little, you know, Rusty, they haven't played.
45:01
But man, we are healthy, man. It don't matter who someone said
45:06
when be on Broadway is money, Shay on Broadway is money.
45:11
But guess what? Those teams need the Garden more
45:14
than anything else to make it a big matchup.
45:18
Spurs is a good it's a good, good team, OK, he's a good
45:23
basketball team. But when you bring those teams
45:24
to the Mecca, it's a bigger stage than anything else.
45:28
It's probably one of the biggest stage ever, you know what I'm
45:30
saying? It's not TD Garden is not
45:34
Staples Center. Better say different, but yeah.
45:40
TD It does. It ain't the Garden, though.
45:43
It ain't the Mecca. Listen, those these seats are
45:47
like World Cup prices. It ain't no, it ain't no other
45:51
arena that could provide this type of the stage Like this is
45:55
crazy, bro. This like this is the reason why
45:57
we this is the reason why we go crazy for this stage man, you've
46:02
got I really believe that it could go 6 no matter which team
46:07
plays the next. It's.
46:09
Too much. I know what I'm saying.
46:11
I think so too. Because because I want to give
46:13
the other two teams credit because Spurs balling and OKC
46:18
well, they kind of injured. So I mean, I don't they bought
46:20
the two ball handlers are injured.
46:21
So let's see what they going to do.
46:23
But if we get if we get the Spurs, I feel calm when we're
46:27
going to take them only because they have experience.
46:29
They haven't gone through what we didn't went through last year
46:32
with any of their Pacers game one man that heartbreak.
46:35
Spurs needs to go through a heartbreak and a crush in the
46:39
playoff in the postseason like the Knicks did, to really feel
46:42
what it is to be a champion. I will.
46:44
Historically, how the NBA has gone.
46:46
I will. I will.
46:47
Tell you push the boulder up the hill and have it come down again
46:49
and get it back. Up I will tell both of you this,
46:52
I was so very happy that Indiana did not get a first round draft
46:55
pick. What a mess.
46:57
I was so happy to see Tyrese Halliburton because they thought
47:02
they were going to get Cam boozed her.
47:03
Oh, we're going to get them. We're going to.
47:05
We're going to be unbelievable next year.
47:07
They were trying to lose all season long, but they always
47:09
beat the Knicks. They made sure they played their
47:11
best game against the Knicks and then everybody else they will
47:14
lose against the Charlotte Hornets.
47:16
Everybody, everybody they were matched up against except the
47:19
Knicks at Madison Square Garden. I was so happy because I did not
47:21
want to see Cam Boozer play with Tyrese Albert and I was so happy
47:25
about that. But boys, I, I love you guys.
47:28
You guys do such a great job. No matter what happens in the
47:32
finals if the Knicks win. And I Juanito, we're we're doing
47:35
a live show at Main Event and it's Ben too.
47:39
Ben, you guys should come out to.
47:40
One, by the way, I don't know who that that guy is with the
47:42
leather bracelets in the graphic of me up there above my left.

47:48
tickets. I'm looking for that tickets to
47:50

47:53
He looks tan, like he's speaking at a conference or something,
47:55

47:58
ticket. I could use a ticket.
48:00

SOB's is New York. This is not this is my front.
50:55
And it's it's not like it's not Radio City is not MSG.
50:59
But listen, we're going to have a good time June 3rd sobs.
51:04
So pull up and it's it's cheap, 5 bucks.
51:06
I mean, why not 5? We're going, we're going to go,
51:10
we're going to I, I, I'm going to make it a point to support
51:12
what you're doing. We're going to go and 'cause
51:14
we're not going to cause any trouble, but I, I'm not, I'm
51:17
going to warn you I might be spinning.
51:18
It's next to Joe's Pizza, next to NYU.
51:20
You want a. Glizzy.
51:21
There's a glizzy down the street there, there's, you know,
51:24
there's halal trucks. That sounds, that sounds awesome
51:32
1. You know, that really does SOB's
51:34
like you said, legendary spot. I'd like to just plug something
51:37
quick on out Steve Novak's content as of late.
51:40
He just hosted the Knicks party in London.
51:42
Here's a bobble head of Steve Novak in college.
51:46
So yeah, shout out to Steve Novak.
51:48
I like Steve. I like Steve, and I saw him
51:50
working with Alan Hahn. He was there.
51:53
So I I like it. Yeah, he's doing a great job.
51:55
But no Juanita. That sounds awesome.
51:56
What a great idea. I like the suit, by the way,
51:59
Steve Novak, Novak actually knows how to dress.
52:01
He's better. He he actually knows how to
52:03
dress better than Alan Hahn and his his tale of guys over there
52:06
so. Hear that, Nathan?
52:07
You're going to take style advice.
52:09
No, nobody wants to. Nobody wants to take style
52:12
advice from Nathan. That's right, Nathan, on that,
52:14
no. Fellow Novak.
52:15
The Knicks are in the NBA Finals.
52:17
Enjoy. Enjoy the city.
52:18

53:42

54:10
Here's this week's article. Aaron Rodgers retires after 22
54:16
seasons, 4 MVPS, won Super Bowl and 47,000.
54:20
Episodes of What the hell is this guy talking about?
54:25
This is one of Errol's articles over 300.
54:28
Was it 400? 1000 visits this month.
54:30
So far, speedy more than to this site, I think it's more over
54:33
that. Also, you can find all of our
54:35
best clips, most recent clips from the show on the website
54:39
worldwidesportsradio.com. So let's flip the script.
54:44
Take a look at the article. I'm going to read some of it
54:46
right now to you and then Speedy will take over.
54:50
Here we go, Aaron. Rodgers retiring feels less like
54:54
the end of a football career and more like the season finale of a
54:57
Netflix documentary called Darkness Retreats and Torn
55:01
Achilles. The man has given us 22 years of
55:04
football brilliance, conspiracy theories, weird interviews,
55:07
mysterious relationships and enough drama to make reality TV
55:11
producers don't pedals at his locker.
55:16
And now, at 42 years old, the quarterback version of your
55:18
uncle who thinks Wi-Fi causes migraine says this is officially
55:23
it. Ladies and gentlemen, the final
55:25
season of Aaron Rodgers has arrived.
55:29
One last ride or one last ayahuasca vision quest.
55:34
Rodgers announced that the 2026 season with the Pittsburgh
55:36
Steelers will be his final NFL season.
55:38
Which honestly feels fitting because if there's one franchise
55:41
built for a quarterback who looks like he spends Tuesday's
55:44
debating aliens in a candlelit cabin, it's Pittsburgh Steelers.
55:49
Fans are probably sitting there right now saying we can fix
55:51
them, buddy. Green Bay tried, The Jets tried,
55:54
science tried. And now Mike McCarthy is back in
55:57
the picture like an ex-boyfriend texting you up at 2:13 in the
56:02
morning. Rodgers reuniting with Mike
56:04
McCarthy's football's version of two divorced parents realizing
56:08
the dating market is terrible and getting back together for
56:11
the kids. Remember all those arguments?
56:12
Yeah. Want to do it again in
56:14
Pittsburgh? Absolutely.
56:17
And we'll stop right here, Speedy.
56:19
With the marriage, nobody understands.
56:24
All right, we'll start it off. We got a mixed bag here as Aaron
56:26
Rodgers had that in his career. This one's just a very simple
56:29
one, an easy first ballot Hall of Famer.
56:30
This is Cine Felestu. I guess.
56:32
This is easy. First ballot Hall of Famer who
56:34
didn't win as many Super Bowls as expected, and he's taking
56:37
shots at him just after winning a second year as a starter.
56:40
Cine, thank you for giving us your take.
56:41
And you're right, he is absolutely one of the greatest
56:44
quarterbacks of all time. As a matter of fact, if you look
56:46
at the 10 plus years that he played at a top level, I could
56:51
compare him better than Tom Brady, I can compare him better
56:54
than Phillip Rivers, Eli Manning, you name it.
56:57
Any one of those guys, Peyton Manning.
56:59
If you tell me right now, if Aaron Rodgers had 10 years, his
57:03
10 best years against all the greats, I would consider him the
57:06
greatest quarterback of all time.
57:07
But let's be honest, he only won 1 championship and he really put
57:12
himself in that situation when he went to The Jets.
57:14
He should have never went to The Jets if he thought that he was
57:18
he was going to take The Jets to that next level.
57:20
He should have taken them that way and he didn't.
57:22
I don't want to hear anything like that.
57:24
In 4 plays he gets injured. I know that's not his fault, but
57:27
4 plays he tears his Achilles. Then he does a a documentary.
57:30
He was all over Hard Knocks. He tried to promote everything.
57:33
You had the all brakes, all gas, no brake situation with the old
57:37
Robert Solid, Bambi solid. It was pathetic.
57:40
As far as I'm concerned, you're right.
57:42
He he to me, he's one of the greatest that never really won
57:45
that, not that much. This is someone that kind of
57:48
agrees with you about the all time greatness is Robin SXX, all
57:52
time great QB, arguably the most talented thrower of the ball
57:55
we've ever seen, but a player had his prime that was wasted by
57:59
Green Bay failing him? Robin, I would agree with you.
58:02
Green Bay didn't give him enough.
58:03
They didn't give him enough wide receivers when he was at a high
58:06
level. He had Devante Adams at one
58:08
point. He had Jordy Nelson at one
58:09
point. He had driver at the tail end of
58:12
his career at best. He never had enough.
58:14
He had Jimmy Graham for a little bit.
58:16
He never had enough offensively. The running backs were up and
58:19
down, Their offensive lines were up and they're down and their
58:22
defense was never at a high level.
58:23
As a matter of fact, when you look at their offense, they were
58:25
had one of the best offenses in the league, but one of the worst
58:28
defenses in the league or bottom feeders in defense.
58:31
That was the problem. If they had, if they were as
58:33
good as they were offensively, they win multiple championships.
58:37
And I agree with you, I believe Green Bay did him a disservice.
58:40
All right, this one is from Owaki.
58:43
In addition to being an amazing quarterback most of his career,
58:46
he'll be ironically eventually remembered for being the drama
58:49
queen that Brett Favre was. At the end.
58:50
He mentioned that they both went to The Jets and he said it would
58:52
have been funny if Favre went to the Vikings, which was a lot of
58:55
the fan angle conspiracy theories at the time.
58:58
Owaki, you're absolutely right. If you look at both backs, they
59:01
both went to The Jets and they both failed as a Jet.
59:04
As a matter of fact, Brett Favre was a better Jet than Aaron
59:06
Rodgers was. But the fact here is it doesn't
59:09
matter if they were Jet, doesn't matter what they've said or what
59:11
they've done on and off the off the field.
59:14
These guys are two of the greatest quarterbacks of all
59:15
time. We'll correct ourselves in the
59:19
future where they are when we see stupid things happen off the
59:24
field when they're not doing things like Brett Favre just
59:27
did. If Aaron Rodgers just stays out
59:29
of the tabloids, stop talking about his wife that nobody knows
59:33
or nobody's met, and he names his hand Brittany or whatever,
59:35
that if that happens and he just stays away from the tabloids,
59:39
Aaron Rodgers won't be considered a Brett Favre
59:41
wannabe. All right, this one is from
59:43
Fluffy Woodpecker. 733. Good talent but can't perform in
59:46
the playoffs. Absolute D bag personality.
59:50
Bluffy, thank you for your take. As far as he couldn't produce in
59:53
the playoffs, he produced in the playoffs.
59:55
It's not him, it's the defense. He produced enough.
59:58
It was just there was a lot of fall back on some of the things
1:00:01
that happened in those games. You can't blame Aaron Rodgers.
1:00:04
He I've seen him make some of the greatest comebacks in the
1:00:06
playoffs. I've seen him make some of the
1:00:07
greatest throws I've ever seen in the playoffs.
1:00:09
So I would disagree with that. As far as AD bag and what he has
1:00:13
done on and off the field, I would agree with you.
1:00:16
I think there's things that he has said that's made him a
1:00:18
mockery of the NFL. And throughout his career, he
1:00:22
wasn't like that in the beginning.
1:00:24
It really tailed at after the last couple of years with Green
1:00:27
Bay and then he went to The Jets.
1:00:29
All right, last one, this is one of my favorite user names.
1:00:31
Lost my logging info. Will be remembered as an idiot
1:00:34
with an arm. That dude is dumb as rocks at
1:00:36
anything other than football. I wish you would keep playing.
1:00:38
Listening to interviews when he would be retired is going to be
1:00:41
painful. And he was mentioning a lot of
1:00:42
things here, like a campaign on Fox News or something like that.
1:00:46
Thank you for your take. And I'll say this, I don't know
1:00:49
about an idiot. I think he knows what he's
1:00:51
doing. I don't think Aaron Rodgers
1:00:53
doesn't. This guy actually is a great
1:00:55
Jeopardy player. He was going to host Jeopardy.
1:00:57
I mean, this guys a smart man. He went to Cal.
1:01:00
He's not stupid. The problem with Aaron Rodgers
1:01:03
is he has been as good as any quarterback we've seen come out
1:01:06
of the draft. When he came out of the draft,
1:01:08
he was considered thrown away, never being really recognized as
1:01:13
an elite quarterback from his draft.
1:01:14
Alex Smith was drafted in front of him as the number one pick.
1:01:17
He was drafted in the 20s by Green Bay and he tailed right
1:01:21
behind Brett Favre for three years before he got a shot.
1:01:23
And what he did on the football field was absolutely unique.
1:01:26
I, I think he transitioned the quarterback position when he
1:01:30
took over. Not only as a mobile
1:01:32
quarterback, but as a throwing quarterback that can throw
1:01:34
everything single pass and be as accurate as any quarterback
1:01:37
we've ever seen. As far as what he is as a
1:01:40
person, his personality, is he AD back?
1:01:42
I don't know him personally what he's done on and off the
1:01:45
football field. You question some of the
1:01:47
stupidity that's come out of his mouth and and again, he he he
1:01:50
got married to a woman that nobody knows what they're let
1:01:53
her last name is. Nobody's ever seen her.
1:01:55
His friends never met her. I mean, it's kind of weird.
1:01:58
And then his problem with his family and some of the backlash
1:02:02
that everybody has attacked him. I don't for for somebody as far
1:02:06
as Aaron Rodgers personality, I I should and nobody should be
1:02:09
getting involved with his family life.
1:02:11
It's none of our business. But it was the way Aaron Rodgers
1:02:14
brought it to the forefront that documentary had on Netflix.
1:02:17
He threw him cell phone to the bus and now people are eating
1:02:20
him up alive. I think Aaron Rodgers needs to
1:02:22
stay away from the tabloids. If he does that, he would be
1:02:26
considered one of the greats of all time.
1:02:27
I think he's the greatest quarterback I've ever seen.
1:02:30
I've seen greats. Tom Brady at a high level,
1:02:33
Peyton Manning at a high level, Drew Brees at a high level.
1:02:35
I've seen them all. Nobody in a 10 year span is
1:02:38
better than this man. I'm telling you, when you watch
1:02:40
Aaron Rodgers and you look at all these guys at the top tail
1:02:44
of their careers, nobody's better than Aaron Rodgers.
1:02:49
And that's a fact. Guys I know and I've, I've taken
1:02:51
shots at Aaron Rodgers for a long, long time.
1:02:54
Even as a New York Jet, I wanted him a New York Jet.
1:02:56
I thought he was going to do so many great things with The Jets
1:02:59
and and again, The Jets bring in these quarterbacks that you
1:03:02
question, you know, like why, why are they bringing this guy
1:03:05
in? And unfortunately it didn't work
1:03:08
out. Now they're bringing Geno Smith
1:03:09
back. I'm I'm questioning that.
1:03:11
We'll see how it all works out. I hope it works out better than
1:03:14
it did the first time, but I The Jets have pieces so and I, as Q
1:03:19
was saying, hey, maybe they make the playoffs.
1:03:21
They're not making the playoffs, but that that is the Q tag.
1:03:24
That is Q's tag. So don't throw me under the bus
1:03:27
when The Jets start off the season.
1:03:28
O and five. That's all I'm going to say,
1:03:30
ladies and gentlemen. Wow, what a by the way, it's
1:03:33
been a great show. A lot of arguing, me and Q just
1:03:36
attacking each other, but we got a lot to go.
1:03:39
As we call this concrete jungle carousel.
1:03:44
Welcome to the jungle, we got fun and games.
1:03:47
You know where you are? What?
1:03:49
Did you do in the jungle, baby? Welcome.
1:03:52
I'm trying to put Tiger Bomb on this jungle's nuts.
1:03:54
To the concrete jungle carousel you.
1:03:57
Got to die. Where the Hell's Q?
1:04:07
Get him in here. Welcome back to the Concrete
1:04:09
Jungle Carousel, everybody. Here we are starting it off with
1:04:15
basketball. What else, Errol?
1:04:16
There's one story that we did not get to earlier tonight and
1:04:21
that is OG Ananobi being snubbed from the first team, All first
1:04:27
defensive team. He was put on second team for
1:04:30
some reason. Mike Brown as well as others
1:04:33
took shots saying that he wasn't named, although he was clearly
1:04:37
the best player on the Knicks defense that was top five this
1:04:40
year. OG agreed with that statement,
1:04:42
saying it's cool he got second recognition, but he thought he
1:04:45
definitely deserved first team. He had a 3.2 defensive win
1:04:48
share, which was good, not great in the league, but that's not,
1:04:51
you know, perfect Statford. He joins Dyson Daniels, Bam
1:04:54
Autobayo, Cason Wallace and Scotty Barnes on the second
1:04:58
team. Here's the interesting thing.
1:05:00
Errol Wemby and Chet Holmgren, those guys were the top 2
1:05:05
defensive player of the year getters.
1:05:06
We know they were going to be on that first team.
1:05:08
After that they put Rudy Gobert on there as well, even though he
1:05:12
also plays center, which doesn't make sense to me.
1:05:16
Oscar Thompson, who was a defense only player basically,
1:05:20
and Derek White, who I thought was much worse this year than he
1:05:24
had been in. Previous year, Thompson's were
1:05:26
ahead of OG Ananobi. Both of them were ahead of them.
1:05:30
It made no sense. And I again, I understand these
1:05:32
awards mean really nothing to the NBA, but it means a lot to
1:05:36
the player. OG Anobi plays at a high level.
1:05:38
He's the best wing defender at his position in the league.
1:05:41
He's a first team defensive player.
1:05:43
There's no argument to that. If you look at the Knicks
1:05:45
defense, you look at the cornerstone of their defense.
1:05:47
It's not Karl Anthony Towns, it's not Mitchell Robinson, it's
1:05:50
not Mikhail Bridges, it's not any one of those guys, it's not
1:05:53
Josh Hart, it is OG Anobi. He is their heart and soul to
1:05:57
that defense and the fact that the NBA doesn't see that for
1:06:00
what it is, this team is in the finals.
1:06:03
One of the main reasons why they're in the finals is because
1:06:05
of OG and Anobi. Healthy or not, this guy is not
1:06:08
only the best defender for the New York Knicks, he controls the
1:06:12
pace of the game. Pathetic.
1:06:14
I, I don't, I just don't understand these awards and what
1:06:17
these what, what the NBA is trying to do to this guy.
1:06:19
This guy is the best wing defender.
1:06:22
I don't think he's Kawhi Leonard, but some people compare
1:06:24
his skills to Kawhi Leonard. The fact here is he is as good
1:06:28
as anybody we've seen play for the New York Knicks at his
1:06:31
position in history, and that's all I'm going to say about that,
1:06:35
yeah. It's it's one of those things
1:06:36
where I think some older voters are refusing to evolve for some
1:06:39
of the things that are now more important in the today's game
1:06:42
where it's a much more 3 point shooting game.
1:06:44
It's much more smart shot shooting game.
1:06:46
That's why I think both Thompson or both OG and Anobi and and
1:06:50
Scotty Barnes both deserve to be on the first first team because
1:06:53
they were the better raw perimeter to defenders compared
1:06:56
to Derek White. Derek White was good but I don't
1:06:58
think he was at that level that OG or Scotty Barnes at.
1:07:01
I think Thompson definitely deserved it like you were
1:07:02
saying. Fish too.
1:07:03
Like Chet, Holmgren should be the only center on that list.
1:07:06
Gobert should not be there just because he's a good traditional
1:07:08
stop blocker either. That's where I think the.
1:07:10
Voters, let me ask you guys a question.
1:07:12
Check home Grim. What is he doing throughout this
1:07:14
playoffs? Defensively, he hasn't been
1:07:16
playing well. Look at what OG Ananobi brings
1:07:18
to the table. He's a completely different
1:07:20
beast. And that's why I look at a you
1:07:22
got to see what they do in the big games.
1:07:24
I know it's all about the regular season, but when you're
1:07:26
voting, you got to see what these guys do in the most
1:07:29
important parts of those games. And OG Ananobi is a shutdown
1:07:33
defender. It's it's pathetic.
1:07:34
I don't know. Mikhail Bridges didn't even make
1:07:36
the team. He didn't make the first or
1:07:37
second team either. And he's going too far now with
1:07:40
Michael Bridges. Now we can understand.
1:07:43
I think it was more of a position thing though.
1:07:45
I think from a own ball defender, OG is who he is and
1:07:48
he's a great defender, but I think he kind of got edged out
1:07:51
because of the impact that she has far as in the paint and Rudy
1:07:55
Goldberry as far as independent as well.
1:07:56
So based off position and where they got OG listed at, he just
1:08:01
wasn't going to edge out those goals.
1:08:02
Obviously Rudy Goldberry with three time defensive player of
1:08:04
the year and then you got set who's very impactful in the
1:08:09
paint with that hip side backside defense.
1:08:12
I just think it was just a tough ass to get him in the first.
1:08:14
Obviously he just he's a great defender.
1:08:17
I don't think that he was going to be able to out edge those
1:08:20
guys based off their total body work.
1:08:22
And it's kind of like if I look at how other guys impact
1:08:27
offenses and offensive schemes and, and in the way they impact
1:08:31
the opposing team versus our own ball defender who's impacting
1:08:34
the star player. Now when it comes to OG he can
1:08:36
shut down the star player, but the other two guys are more
1:08:40
scheme schematically wise, they're more protecting the pain
1:08:43
and anywhere from box to box to free throw to free throw line.
1:08:47
I I just don't get it, like personally, Errol, how how do
1:08:51
you have 3 bigs on the first team?
1:08:53
There should be two bigs, not 3 bigs.
1:08:55
I don't get that. That's just not how basketball's
1:08:57
played it. Makes no sense to me.
1:08:58
I, I want to throw up. I, I just, every time I watch,
1:09:01
watch these awards and how they, they rank this and, and they're
1:09:05
trying to pinpoint certain things how it makes sense.
1:09:07
It, it doesn't make any sense. I understand Chet Holmgren's a
1:09:10
great player. I understand that Webiyama's a
1:09:12
great player. I understand that all these guys
1:09:14
are great players, but you have to look at the position.
1:09:17
If you're put considering somebody a small forward, you're
1:09:20
going to pick the best defender at the small forward position,
1:09:23
not a big man. It doesn't make any sense.
1:09:26
So the NBA likes to prove or make their points.
1:09:29
Their points are not hurt on this.
1:09:31
It's pathetic and it's disrespectful to OG Anobe.
1:09:34
That's who's the 3rd. Who's the third big man?
1:09:37
Go Bear. So they went Rudy.
1:09:40
Rudy is on the first team with Chet and Wembe, so there's three
1:09:44
centers, you know what I mean? I mean you could say Chet plays
1:09:48
a little 4, but you know, like still that's three bigs.
1:09:51
That makes no sense. OG should be on there over.
1:09:54
I would guess Gobert would be the third big in that group.
1:09:57
Right. Just a second teammate.
1:09:58
Bad. I need to.
1:09:59
Know they disrespect they just they just disrespect him on
1:10:02
defensive player of the year too.
1:10:03
He was the 10th ranked defensive player voting.
1:10:06
That's pathetic. You're talking about the best
1:10:08
wing defense all season long. Statistics analytics would tell
1:10:11
you that he was. And the Knicks had the best
1:10:13
defense all season long. So why were they the best
1:10:16
defensive team all season long? OG Anobi So.
1:10:20
It's it's like even more than that.
1:10:21
Like he can guard like 5 positions like that.
1:10:24
That's that's what he's. Magic Johnson about him, just
1:10:26
like Magic Johnson. I would say, you know, you know,
1:10:29
the defense they played in the 80s isn't what they're playing
1:10:31
now. You know, like they didn't
1:10:33
really play much deep back in the early 80s when Magic was
1:10:35
doing that. I, I love it.
1:10:38
I want to just before we move out, Jalen Brunson also name
1:10:42
second team all NBA. The following day I'll just read
1:10:45
off the team's first team. No surprise Shay Gil, just
1:10:49
Alexander, Nicola Yokich, Wembe, Luka and Cade.
1:10:53
Those are the top five in the MVP votings.
1:10:55
Not surprising to see them. Their second team is Brunson.
1:10:58
Donovan Mitchell just faced each other.
1:11:00
Jaylen Brown, Kawhi Leonard and KD.
1:11:03
Come on. Who makes second team All NBA?
1:11:07
Come on, KD. And third team was Maxi, Jamal
1:11:11
Murray, Jaylen Johnson of the Hawks, Jaylen Dern of the
1:11:14
Pistons and the aforementioned Chet Holmgrade.
1:11:17
Q Hold on, what? What jab did I take at Jaylen
1:11:19
Brown that you're at? The KD, you say you know you
1:11:23
been Carly. I was fucking Johnny.
1:11:26
I was fucking Johnny on that take.
1:11:28
I'm going to say this, if you were to argue Kate Cunningham
1:11:32
should be there and not Jaylen Bronson.
1:11:34
I think Kate Cunningham is a great player.
1:11:36
There's no question. And he had the number one, his
1:11:38
team was the number one in the East.
1:11:40
But as far as I'm concerned, Jaylen Bronson played healthy
1:11:44
all season long. Kate Cunningham was up and he
1:11:45
was down, couldn't stay healthy. And I'm when Jaylen Bronson's
1:11:49
out there, the Knicks always usually win.
1:11:52
When Kate Cunningham was not playing, they were still
1:11:54
winning. So you're, you're asking me my
1:11:57
honest opinion. I think Jalen Brunson should be
1:11:59
a first team offensive player this year.
1:12:01
What he has done for the New York Knicks, it's been
1:12:03
sensational. He is the best at closing out
1:12:07
games and closing out teams. I'm putting him there.
1:12:09
He deserves it. It's it's well deserved.
1:12:12
The fact that he has no and as far as MVP voting, the he, he's
1:12:17
not really been in those conversations for the last two
1:12:19
years. It makes no sense.
1:12:21
Makes no sense. Yeah, it's also because he's
1:12:23
going to as a point guard compared to.
1:12:25
SGA and. Compared to Kate Cunningham,
1:12:26
he's going to get more reroutes. Hey, if they got three big men,
1:12:29
if they have three big men on all defensive team, why can't
1:12:32
they have two or three-point cards?
1:12:34
As you said, it's like a stretch for.
1:12:36
Yeah, I'm just, I'm just saying, I'm just saying it makes more
1:12:39
sense to go that route than the other.
1:12:41
One, yeah. One that two centers needed
1:12:42
though. When when he's going to be
1:12:44
anywhere in about our water, then like I said, home, we're
1:12:45
going to go all over the place. So it's kind of a tough it's
1:12:49
tough to leave how him out. It's tough to leave even even
1:12:50
Jalen Brown to leave out, too. Jaylen Brown's definitely there.
1:12:54
Jaylen Brown's an unbelievable. Defense, he only got like 2
1:12:56
votes too. He didn't get it.
1:12:57
Yeah. Like for a team that had Tatum
1:12:59
hurdle year so you would think that he would have gotten first
1:13:01
Seymour first team. Right.
1:13:02
I just so everybody knows, I support Jaylen Brown.
1:13:05
I like Jaylen Brown. I wouldn't mind him a Nick, OK?
1:13:08
I like his. I like his person.
1:13:10
I like his personality. I like how he goes out people,
1:13:13
his personality and he's a smart man.
1:13:16
He's probably the smartest one on that team when it comes to
1:13:19
education. He understands what it is and
1:13:22
how to be as a professional. So I I love Jaylen Brown.
1:13:25
I like him as a personality. Yeah, I think Cade had the
1:13:28
momentum right before that injury and he had to sit out and
1:13:31
I think that the voters are kind of just rolled that out being
1:13:34
that the fact that he fought back to kind of play those last
1:13:37
few games. So I think that's the reason
1:13:38
that kind of gave him the edge over Jaylen.
1:13:41
But I think overall, if you look at it from top to bottom, Jaden
1:13:44
obviously was should have been first team all over, first team,
1:13:48
all NBA. But yeah, it's it's going to be
1:13:51
tough, especially when he had he had that steam rolling first.
1:13:53
I just think it's one of those things that he just got edged
1:13:56
out because Kate couldn't have already had the momentum.
1:14:00
I mean, it's pretty cool. He's if you're if you're second
1:14:04
team all NBA, that means you're a top ten player in the league
1:14:07
and the Knicks were able to get him.
1:14:09
And it's just been you know, you you mentioned it earlier.
1:14:13
You know, we had a lot of talk about the Knicks.
1:14:14
I don't even think we said enough great things about Leon
1:14:17
Rose and all the things he put together.
1:14:19
Let's move forward. It's nothing to talk about with
1:14:20
the Nets until they get closer to the draft.
1:14:22
Let's get into baseball plenty to talk about as far as baseball
1:14:27
goes. Let's start with the Yankees.
1:14:28
Gerrit Cole came back last week. He missed almost two years after
1:14:33
Tommy John surgery again. His last game was in the World
1:14:36
Series. He got hurt in the pre next
1:14:38
preseason before last season. 6 scoreless, two hits, three
1:14:41
walks, only two strikeouts. He is back in action Jose
1:14:45
Caballeros back from his injury, but Spencer Jones arrow did not
1:14:49
fare too well in his first cup of coffee in the big leagues.
1:14:53
He had only a 167 batting average, 2 RBIs, 426 OPS before
1:14:59
they sent him down. The only other thing to really
1:15:01
mention because he has a home run tonight is Anthony Volpe.
1:15:06
They're playing around with him. Trying to play. 2nd So here's
1:15:09
the thing. They wanted to play some second
1:15:11
base and that's interesting because that's Jazz Chisholm's
1:15:15
position, who has not had a particularly good season.
1:15:17
Voltage started to hit right out of the gate.
1:15:20
Right now, what does that really mean for this Yankees infield?
1:15:24
I, I've been telling everybody Volpe was not 100% healthy last
1:15:28
year. Now I'm, I'm upset about the
1:15:29
Spencer Jones thing, but he'll get his, he'll get another lick
1:15:32
at it. There's a lot of season left.
1:15:34
I expect him to be called up. There's a lot of lot of players
1:15:37
that get injury grism might not be 100% healthy for the whole
1:15:40
season. We'll see how everything works
1:15:42
out, but I will say this, Anthony Volpe is a part of the
1:15:46
future of this New York Yankee team.
1:15:48
There's no, no question. I think he's going to be a
1:15:50
second baseman. Lombard Lombard is going to be
1:15:53
the future shortstop. What he's doing in AAA is
1:15:55
amazing right now. He'll probably be called up at
1:15:57
some point this year, but he's not probably going to make the
1:16:01
playoff team. But he is a special kid.
1:16:03
I expect that they also have this kid from the Dominican
1:16:06
Republic that is going to be called up in the next couple of
1:16:09
years as well that people think is a shortstop but can play
1:16:12
third base. As far as the the full Yankee
1:16:15
thing, Garrett Cole pitched well.
1:16:16
The Yankees lost that game. The Yankees lost that game.
1:16:20
Jerichole in as far as his pitching staff, he doesn't have
1:16:23
to be the number one anymore. He could be the number 2 and #3
1:16:25
when Freed comes back and he'll still be dominant.
1:16:28
You got Schlittler pitching the way he is pitching as the number
1:16:31
one guy and then you have Freed when he gets back, you're going
1:16:34
to have a one 2-3 punch that nobody's going to be able to
1:16:37
contend with. The Yankees pitching staff is
1:16:39
going to be the best pitching staff in the playoffs.
1:16:42
I I think the Yankees need to add another bat at the trade
1:16:44
deadline. Brian Cashman usually does that.
1:16:47
Don't worry about the Yankees. The Yankees a smooth sailing.
1:16:50
I'm not worried about him. Yeah, I don't mind them trying
1:16:52
to experiment with Volpe in different spots either.
1:16:55
Obviously he's Bats should be in the lineup with the way he's
1:16:58
hitting. I mean, Rosario at the Hot Star,
1:16:59
he cooled off and McMahon had his like one week of glory, but
1:17:02
he's been terrible offensively the rest of the year.
1:17:04
He's just a defensive, I know, and that's where.
1:17:06
You have a platoon that shouldn't seem like a platoon if
1:17:09
Chisholm is hitting the way he should be hitting and now, and
1:17:12
Caballero hits as well as he did because I trust him.
1:17:14
Caballero's played well since he's gotten over there.
1:17:16
I Caballero's going to be there this year.
1:17:18
He will not be. It's possible Lombard will be
1:17:22
the shortstop of this team moving forward.
1:17:24
Volpe will be the second baseman.
1:17:26
I I'll say this, Jazzy is going to be traded at the trade
1:17:30
deadline. They need a third baseman.
1:17:32
They're going to get one. He's going to be gone.
1:17:34
They're not paying him 35 million a year.
1:17:36
He wants 8 years, 35 million. And Jazz is not having a good
1:17:39
year. So what could the Yankees get
1:17:40
for him? He's still one of the top 10
1:17:42
second baseman in the league. They could get something really
1:17:44
good for him. Get a third baseman that you
1:17:46
have control for for the for the next 5-6 years and you'll be
1:17:49
set. Yeah, the, the type of player
1:17:51
Chisholm is, like he still has traits that are still going to
1:17:54
be good for a lot of other teams.
1:17:55
He just decided to run his mouth more in New York and it, you
1:17:59
know, ate him up in the playoffs in that.
1:18:00
First year, we're the ugliest champs.
1:18:02
Yeah, but I think I like the ugliest I remember, I like the
1:18:06
trade for the Yankees at the time because they needed a
1:18:08
player type like that. But his comments just a lot
1:18:11
drove like obviously you and a lot of other Yankee fans the
1:18:13
wrong way. And I think a lot of you and the
1:18:15
fans. Are not you know what rubs me
1:18:17
the wrong way about him? He tries to be Nick Swisher, but
1:18:20
Nick Swisher wasn't as abrupt as he is.
1:18:23
He just goes out there and says the dumbest things.
1:18:26
And then when he went to the Home Run Derby and he said, he
1:18:28
said that about the Yankees. The Yankees infield is one of
1:18:30
the best defensive infields in all of the league.
1:18:33
And then in the second-half, they became one of the worst
1:18:35
infield defensives in in all of baseball.
1:18:38
It made no sense. Every time he speaks it, he
1:18:40
throws himself under the bus. Hey Fish, where's the 5050
1:18:43
tracker? Listen, listen, I put my hat on
1:18:50
tonight and the and the and the Yankees are winning 11 one right
1:18:53
now currently. So I would like to say that I I
1:18:57
do have that, that that good luck charm that on that rebbe's
1:19:01
foot in the back. But listen, the Yankees are, you
1:19:03
know, they just got to find some consistency.
1:19:05
You know, I got I think you guys have covered pretty much the
1:19:07
majority of everything, but Jericho is looking good coming
1:19:11
out and Schindler is the number one guy.
1:19:13
So and judges came out of his slump.
1:19:15
So hey, we we got some things. He's just, you know, boiling and
1:19:19
headed in the right direction. So, you know, I think that is
1:19:21
going to be our right man that just got to find some
1:19:23
consistency outside into what in the bullpen and.
1:19:28
Quickly on Cold too, I want to mention that like we saw that
1:19:30
with CC Sabathia having to evolve after he was dealing with
1:19:33
all those injuries. Oh, in 90. 8 No, I know I'm not
1:19:35
talking about velocity, I'm talking about the the strikeout
1:19:38
rate. Like he still was able to pitch
1:19:39
to contact and. He is gonna be.
1:19:41
Fine I'm not saying he's that level of like Sabathia when he
1:19:43
had the velocity drop. I'm just saying like I think he
1:19:45
adaptability is still good though for him finding.
1:19:48
His way. Just think, you were the number
1:19:49
one guy and now you're the number three guy.
1:19:51
You have no pressure on you. Freed's gonna be the number two
1:19:54
guy when he comes back. And you got Schlittler, who
1:19:56
nobody thought was gonna be this kind of pitcher.
1:19:58
He is unhittable. He is unhittable.
1:20:01
His ERA is one of the best in the league.
1:20:03
His WHIP is the best in the league as a starter.
1:20:05
I mean, he's unbelievable right now.
1:20:07
It's just unbelievable watching this kid play.
1:20:10
We. Did FRA come back?
1:20:12
We'll do FRA come back with the. Fried will be back in the
1:20:14
second-half of the season, probably after the All Star
1:20:16
break. They have to take a look at his
1:20:19
elbow. He started playing catch already
1:20:22
so it's just like a bruised back of the elbow.
1:20:24
They they got to wait till the swelling goes down and then see
1:20:26
where they can push him forwards to.
1:20:28
But you're right, Errol Garrett Cole doesn't have to be more
1:20:31
than the three, but I'd put my money on him coming back to
1:20:33
being #1 starter. That dude is for real.
1:20:38
That guy's been on it over and over again in his career.
1:20:40
I just trust him. I think he throws hard enough
1:20:42
Speedy. I disagree with your take.
1:20:45
CC was thrown 89 and 90 and he had to figure it out at that.
1:20:50
I understand, but I don't think it's the same thing.
1:20:52
I think this is more of him getting comfortable with his
1:20:55
secondary stuff, speedy and now and then just working it off
1:20:58
that fastball. If he's got the fastball
1:20:59
working, which it looks like it, it's just about him getting
1:21:02
comfortable with the secondary put away stuff in my opinion.
1:21:05
Let's talk about the Mets. They got the activated.
1:21:07
The pitcher is on the mound right now.
1:21:09
AJ Minter has missed all the year with a lad injury.
1:21:11
He's an important reliever. They released Craig Kimbrel to
1:21:14
make room for him, who was immediately snatched up by the
1:21:17
Rays, Who which makes me think the Rays are going to fix him
1:21:20
and he's going to revert to being a pitcher.
1:21:23
In the second-half of the season.
1:21:25
Something like that. They brought back Jared Young
1:21:28
from the injured list who was doing pretty well before he got
1:21:31
hurt. Sent down that kid more Vito
1:21:33
who's screwed up as soon as they brought him into the game to
1:21:37
AAA. Devin Williams.
1:21:38
Errol. He had ten straight scoreless
1:21:41
outings lowering his ERA from 3:50, and then got absolutely
1:21:45
shellacked the other day. It's back to 6 1/2 for Devin
1:21:49
Williams. That's your Mets.
1:21:51
I'd like to hear Devin Williams's thought now why he
1:21:54
chose the Mets and not stay with the Yankees.
1:21:57
That's my question, because I want to ask that to Juan Soto,
1:22:00
because Juan Soto was like, I went to the best New York team.
1:22:03
I went to the better New York team, an organization that's
1:22:05
going to win. Wait, the team hasn't won since
1:22:07
1986? Please.
1:22:10
And Juan Soto's going to be sitting there five years from
1:22:12
now or not with the Mets because he's going to opt out of his
1:22:15
contract in the next two years and he'll be playing for the
1:22:17
Braves or somebody else or maybe back with the Yankees.
1:22:20
It's it's the Mets right now. And I, I'm rooting for the Mets.
1:22:24
I don't hate the Mets. I want the Mets to win.
1:22:27
But here's the problem. The way this this team is
1:22:30
positioned and they're not positioned in a good place.
1:22:34
David Stearns has not put him in the position to win.
1:22:36
They're not a winning organization.
1:22:39
Adding Polanco made no sense. Adding Simeons made no sense.
1:22:43
This team out of you bring in Beau Pichette, you put him at
1:22:46
third, now you're putting back shortstop.
1:22:47
He's not the defensive player he wants.
1:22:49
What? None of it makes sense.
1:22:50
None of it makes sense. And this organization is
1:22:53
starting to everybody's starting to believe like what are they?
1:22:56
What are they going to do next? Tom's not pitching well right
1:22:58
now. They have no pitching prospects
1:23:00
really out there. I mean it's and they traded
1:23:03
once. That was alright.
1:23:05
He's fine. Yeah, their pitching staff is
1:23:08
not fun. I mean, it's not fun.
1:23:11
He's. Fine, he's not elite.
1:23:12
Though, Yeah, I said he's said he's great, and that's just
1:23:15
saying we got quit or something. Quit.
1:23:17
Their pitching staff is ranked in the 20s.
1:23:19
Right now they're in the 20s, they're in the 20s.
1:23:22
They're that bad. And and their best pitcher is
1:23:25
McClain, nobody else on that roster.
1:23:27
I mean, Peterson is 3 and O in his last couple of starts, but
1:23:30
they're not good. They're just not good.
1:23:33
They already have to move an eye out of the bullpen.
1:23:35
What what are the what as far as cap?
1:23:37
What what are they ranked right now?
1:23:38
Second, third in the second? They're second in the MLB
1:23:41
because they're paying Juan Soto and Lindor, who, by the way, has
1:23:44
not been on the field. It's it's pathetic.
1:23:47
It is pathetic. We.
1:23:48
Got a lot of key injuries too. Well, yeah, but again, this is a
1:23:51
team that's supposed to be built on depth to overcome that.
1:23:53
It's a good young, it's a good team with at the start of the
1:23:55
year, they're supposed to have young guys, They're supposed to
1:23:57
be able to be replaceable in those roles.
1:23:59
And young, young pitchers, young, especially position
1:24:02
players that you're at least you'll get you're going to get
1:24:04
the same combined production as Lindor with his stats or his
1:24:07
skills, but at least have some of these infielders now.
1:24:09
Now Beatty's hitting a. Little in the last four years,
1:24:12
two out of the four years, Lindor in the first half has not
1:24:15
been a good hitter, right? So you can get something from
1:24:18
Beau Bercheck. You're paying the guy $42
1:24:20
million. He's making more than our job.
1:24:22
You're going to tell me right now that's what you're selling
1:24:24
to the Met fans and the Mets as far as Steve Cohen's concerned,
1:24:28
selling out, trying to sell out tickets and stuff.
1:24:31
They're all now the tickets are going down because they just
1:24:33
want to fill out the ballpark. It's pathetic.
1:24:35
Yeah, and that's pathetic. That's the problem where I
1:24:37
mentioned a couple of weeks ago where Lindoris beginning of the
1:24:40
season before he got hurt, it wasn't just his traditional
1:24:42
April. So I'm then he got back into it.
1:24:44
It was turning into something that was spiraling on him and
1:24:47
then eventually Spiral was on the rest of the team.
1:24:50
But you know what they're doing? There's, they're making
1:24:52
everybody so happy because they beat the Yankees two games to
1:24:55
10. That's our World Series.
1:24:57
We beat the Yankees 21. Yippie Skippy, please.
1:25:01
Yes, it's a small sample size, so much more if they want to
1:25:04
come back in anything at this point because they're just
1:25:07
finding new ways to lose. Devin Williams is turning into
1:25:09
the Yankees downward spiral. Devin.
1:25:12
Williams Typical Any relief pitcher that leaves the Yankees.
1:25:14
Holmes. Look at Clay Holmes.
1:25:15
He starts as a starter and then they pull move him to the
1:25:17
bullpen. We we.
1:25:19
And why is Clay Holmes still a starting pitcher?
1:25:22
I he did, but he was one of the better pitches for the Mets
1:25:24
before he went down. He should be in the bullpen.
1:25:27
That's where he should be. It makes no sense.
1:25:29
David Stearns is trying to spin the wheel and make the deal.
1:25:32
It makes no sense. Yeah, Mentor hopefully will
1:25:35
provide some relief in the bullpen, but Devin Williams is
1:25:37
not going to be saved anything at all at this point.
1:25:38
Now 687 ERA keep. Spinning.
1:25:40
Yeah, 18,000,000 a year for that as a relief object, I'm great.
1:25:44
Edwin Diaz with his cock fighting ring might not be great
1:25:46
either, but still. Speedy likes the cock fighting.
1:25:48
No, Edwin Diaz likes the cock fighting.
1:25:50
He likes the Roosters, you know. Understand the contracts, man.
1:25:52
So listen, we at the bottom right now, we trying to fight
1:25:55
out Lori at the end of the day, beating the Yankees.
1:25:59
Definitely was a World Series. For us, it definitely was and
1:26:01
probably be the only World Series they're going to see in
1:26:03
the next 10. Years still 10 games under 5.
1:26:08
100 while the Yankees are 10 games over at this time and the
1:26:12
teams are going to other opposite directions tonight as
1:26:14
well. Let's talk about a story.
1:26:17
Well, you know, let's just do The Jets real quick because
1:26:19
there's not too much here. 2 of The Jets draft picks are
1:26:22
unsigned. The D tackle Jackson Junior, and
1:26:26
they haven't signed Omar Cooper Junior, the receiver they traded
1:26:29
up for in the first round. Bleacher Report reports the
1:26:33
Bills just going to get them through.
1:26:35
The rest of them are interested in Joel Bitonio who's a long
1:26:40
time veteran probably entering his last season or so in the
1:26:42
league. They need a guard to replace
1:26:46
David Edwards who left in free agency.
1:26:49
Just a couple of news there, but the big news Errol is the Giants
1:26:54
and the Giants locker room. So this actually happened about
1:26:59
5 minutes from my house at the RCC Field House, which is in
1:27:02
Suffern, NY. Jackson Dart was asked to
1:27:06
introduce President Trump at a rally he held in support of
1:27:10
Congressman Mike Lawler, who was on the track and field team with
1:27:13
me and the Model Congress team with me.
1:27:16
Our congressman, I believe I I was the one that won Mile
1:27:19
Congress, not him, but we will revisit that another time.
1:27:23
He's obviously winning now. I have the gavel to prove it and
1:27:26
the pictures, but that's a whole nother story.
1:27:30
Abdul Carter saw a picture of a little short video of Dart
1:27:35
introducing President Trump at RCC and put out a post saying, I
1:27:40
thought this was AI, what are we doing?
1:27:43
And it sparked an entire outrage across all the social media
1:27:48
projected, you know, issues now in the locker room between the
1:27:52
two rookies who were taken in the first round together a
1:27:55
season ago now going into their second year.
1:27:58
Boomer Asias and took shots at Carter saying it was him who
1:28:01
made the mistake for calling him out, not Jackson dart shilling
1:28:04
for Trump as I guess what harder was saying scatterboo.
1:28:09
We don't get into scatter speedy.
1:28:10
What you put the scatterboo stuff in there.
1:28:11
You're not talking about it. You can bring it up, but it's
1:28:16
it's obviously something that Errol, I know you had plenty to
1:28:19
say about. I do.
1:28:20
And I'll sit here and I'm, I don't care what Boomer.
1:28:22
Asiasan had to say about it because it means nothing what
1:28:25
his opinion is. It's my opinion.
1:28:28
What they believe politically has nothing to do with the
1:28:32
locker room and it should not be brought up in the locker room.
1:28:35
It should not be brought up in social media.
1:28:37
And I look at Abdul Carter. Abdul Carter has done some
1:28:41
interesting things in his first year as an NFL player and a New
1:28:45
York Giant. He's a sensational player.
1:28:47
We know what he is analytically, he's special.
1:28:49
But what he's done as a New York Giant doesn't show up.
1:28:52
The practice is has excuses after excuses to the media
1:28:56
doesn't want to answer questions to the media when the is asking
1:28:59
him certain questions that he should be answering and he's
1:29:02
been a head case now. Maybe that's the reason why his
1:29:05
coach got fired. Maybe there was other reasons.
1:29:09
The fact here is if Jackson Dart wants to introduce the president
1:29:12
of the United States, he should be able to and it shouldn't have
1:29:14
been thrown out there. And as far as I'm concerned with
1:29:17
Arvel Reese, maybe there's a reason why they brought Arvel
1:29:21
Reese. They're the same kind of player.
1:29:23
They play the same position. Maybe the Giants are looking at
1:29:26
Abdul Carter. If he opens his mouth and he
1:29:28
does some stupid things in the locker room this year that they
1:29:31
can't control, they're going to say, you know what, we don't
1:29:33
want you here. We're trading you.
1:29:35
We got Arvel Reese, we'll build them up.
1:29:37
He'll be the same player like you and we'll get a first round
1:29:39
draft pick for you. To me, Abdul Karder should keep
1:29:42
his mouth quiet. He shouldn't be opening his
1:29:44
mouth on his franchise quarterback.
1:29:46
I understand he doesn't like it. I I know he has his own opinion
1:29:49
towards things. Your opinions don't value to
1:29:52
what's going on off the field when it comes to football.
1:29:55
You got something to say about Jackson Dart on and off the
1:29:57
field that you don't like. That's your opinion.
1:30:00
But when you're bringing it up on social media and throwing
1:30:02
yourself under the bus, that's pathetic and you're wrong and
1:30:06
you should apologize and he says you're good.
1:30:08
You're never going to be good because Jackson Dart has his own
1:30:11
opinion. Now he's gonna say, yeah, he's
1:30:12
gonna wave it. But what's gonna happen when
1:30:14
something breaks out in the season, something bad goes out
1:30:17
and that locker room and it brings the team apart?
1:30:21
You have your own opinion and the other one has political
1:30:24
views on the other way. It wasn't good.
1:30:26
It was a bad move by Abdul Carter.
1:30:28
This is a big test too for John Harbaugh to try to figure out as
1:30:30
well, because he had trouble. With the louder personalities
1:30:32
with the Ravens too, towards the end of his career there with
1:30:35
Marlon Humphrey especially, he was very outspoken.
1:30:37
Obviously Lamar Jacksons made comments, Derrick Henrys made
1:30:40
comments. I think he had a lot of trouble
1:30:41
with a lot of those types of players.
1:30:42
Now you're dealing with even younger players with the Giants
1:30:45
2 draft picks that were and that are entering their second year
1:30:47
now basis of the franchise. I was gonna say about to be
1:30:49
franchised cornerstones for this team.
1:30:51
They're gonna trade Thibodeau. They ruled for Abdul Carr to
1:30:55
play more because he it took him a while to get going.
1:30:57
Once he played in the second-half after that whole
1:30:58
incident with Brian Dabel, he played very well.
1:31:01
So they know the potential he has on the field.
1:31:03
But if he keeps having these maturity issues off the field,
1:31:05
that's going to be concerned. So that's up to Harbaugh to get
1:31:07
the resolution with those guys going.
1:31:09
But I just want to say something.
1:31:11
He's not one. To correct things that are going
1:31:14
on in locker room because he had problems with Baltimore all
1:31:17
season long. I'm not I'm my my question here
1:31:21
is is is horrible the guy that's going to be able to clean this
1:31:23
up. I don't know if he can and he
1:31:25
has how many coaches as offensive coordinators and
1:31:27
defensive coordinators. It makes no sense.
1:31:29
I don't trust Matt Mcinty. Clean up doesn't make any sense.
1:31:32
So yeah, yeah. I mean so first and foremost.
1:31:36
Players political views or religious views doesn't impact
1:31:40
the the locker at all. This is all media driven base.
1:31:44
At the end of the day, I think that there's no issue, you know,
1:31:48
regardless of what side you choose to align yourself with.
1:31:51
Or we could just look at the fact that he had an opportunity
1:31:55
to introduce the president of the United States.
1:31:57
That doesn't mean that he aligned with him or is on his
1:32:00
team or whatever. It's just the fact that he had
1:32:01
an opportunity that he took advantage of.
1:32:03
So Abdul, stepping outgoing to the media and basically
1:32:07
condemning the franchise quarterback probably wasn't the
1:32:11
smartest move being that you already have, like you mentioned
1:32:13
earlier, a bunch of negative aspects already tied to your
1:32:16
name. And for the most part, some
1:32:18
people would say that you underperformed last year.
1:32:21
Then they draft like you just said, Jeff Aubrey Reese, like
1:32:24
you probably not saying the best president in regards to how the
1:32:29
New York Giants are going to look at you moving forward.
1:32:31
And I thought it was very interesting that the same guy
1:32:34
that you wanted to, you know, have his number, Lawrence
1:32:38
Taylor, he was a guy that, you know, went and met with the
1:32:41
president, your head coach also met with the president of the
1:32:46
United States. So regardless of how you feel
1:32:48
that it's not a place, X is not a place where you jump up there
1:32:52
and you critique the franchise quarterback.
1:32:54
So I think he was out of pocket with that.
1:32:56
I think it's very out of line. And as you guys was missing in
1:32:59
some of the other things that was going on.
1:33:00
I do think he's actually positioning himself to be more
1:33:03
trade baked than he is. New York time.
1:33:06
It's it's a a weird one for sure.
1:33:09
And. Didn't really have.
1:33:10
The president possibly ruining my defensive line on the bingo
1:33:15
card in the offseason this year. I mean, it was screaming go Big
1:33:21
Blue. So I don't really understand the
1:33:22
issues. Everybody was, it was pretty
1:33:24
much giant fans there. They were all giant fans,
1:33:27
obvious. Well, I mean, why wouldn't they
1:33:29
be? But at the same.
1:33:30
Time at the same time, you know, I think this is and Qi wanted to
1:33:34
bring this up with you. I think this is when you need to
1:33:37
have good veterans in your locker room, right?
1:33:39
You need to have guys that can talk to him to tell him the
1:33:41
right thing. Jermaine Illuminor has already
1:33:44
kind of reached out and tried to be public about, you know, we
1:33:46
got this, but I mean, we'll see if they got this.
1:33:50
This is a pretty big deal. Like could spiral.
1:33:52
I I'm with you more queue. I don't think it's that big of a
1:33:56
deal yet, but I'm not I I wouldn't say, you know, like the
1:34:00
if something else happens that's a little shady to Abdul or to
1:34:04
Jackson as the year goes on, this could be the beginning of a
1:34:07
fractured relationship and that would kind of suck.
1:34:09
So, yeah, so. So first of all, I don't think
1:34:12
Jackson. Did anything wrong?
1:34:13
So I don't think that, you know, he should be in the hot seat,
1:34:16
but I do think that the veteran guys are usually in the locker
1:34:20
room. They are usually, you know, will
1:34:22
will you traditionally put their arm around you.
1:34:25
The thing about this generation and and the last generations in
1:34:28
the generations to come is that they don't feel that nobody can
1:34:31
hold them accountable, especially when you're like a
1:34:33
first round draft pit or they're high profile athlete.
1:34:36
They don't believe in accountability.
1:34:39
And then so you, you know it from you know, when, when it's a
1:34:41
coach that say, Oh, I make more money than you.
1:34:43
And if it's a veteran, they say I'm better than you.
1:34:45
So it's like you have to pick and choose that rookie that's,
1:34:49
you know, just made a dumb mistake and you can kind of reel
1:34:51
him in versus the rookie who's like, I double down on I get
1:34:55
back on S right now and say Jackson Dart was stupid for
1:34:58
introducing the president. Not because he has a fan base or
1:35:02
support that get online that he don't realize ain't real, ain't
1:35:06
real. People that don't really care
1:35:07
about his well-being, that would support and encourage him to be,
1:35:11
you know, to treat his franchise quarterback that way.
1:35:15
All right, let's move on to. Hockey and get out of this.
1:35:18
So let's just quickly get speedy.
1:35:20
I don't think we had any, by the way.
1:35:22
I just want to say something. Omar Cooper junior will be fine.
1:35:24
He. He will sign with The Jets, so,
1:35:26
so don't worry about that. Jet fans give it a couple.
1:35:29
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yes. Usually in.
1:35:30
In contrast, there's like one thing.
1:35:32
That, you know, the team and the player don't usually agree with,
1:35:35
and then they have to go to the table and you'd be like, hey,
1:35:38
let's just take this out. Like there's no need for you to
1:35:40
say that, you know, I can't go eat out with Earl, you know me
1:35:43
or something like that, you know, incident out of the
1:35:46
contract and not sign it right now.
1:35:48
Just stuff like that. That's QQ.
1:35:50
Errol had a lot of fun with that like a deuce of the day last
1:35:52
year. When Travis Hunter signed his
1:35:54
rookie contract, it was. It's ridiculous.
1:35:57
Anybody. Sitting there thinking that
1:35:58
he's. Not going to sign with The Jets.
1:36:00
It's all these games they play, I guess.
1:36:02
All right, let's just go. To the Sabres, not We won't talk
1:36:06
about the local team, the more local teams until we get closer
1:36:09
to the NHL Draft, which is at the end of next month.
1:36:12
So some trade rumors and signings that are we talking
1:36:15
about with the Sabres now that their season's over.
1:36:17
Alex Tuck wants 10 million a year.
1:36:20
So Alex Tuck is probably not going to be playing in Buffalo
1:36:23
after this season. He's a good player, but Buffalo
1:36:26
is not a type of team that's going to pony up that kind of
1:36:28
money very often. I'd be shocked if that's going
1:36:31
to happen. They also want to extend Bowen
1:36:33
Byram, but they're very far apart on that extension as well.
1:36:37
Now, here's the real rumour that people are excited about with
1:36:41
the Sabres. It's the availability of Connor
1:36:43
Hellebuk, who's got five years on his deal.
1:36:46
At 8 and a half million, he may be gettable this offseason.
1:36:52
Jeff Marek, NHL analyst, thinks The Jets would want a former
1:36:55
number one overall pick, Owen Power in the deal, maybe UPL the
1:37:00
other, the goalie that started the last game for them.
1:37:02
It was up and down in the playoffs and Senator Josh Norris
1:37:07
as amongst other options that could head back to Winnipeg in
1:37:09
such a deal. What do you think about those
1:37:11
rumors, Errol? If you can get Connor Hollabock,
1:37:14
you're in good. You're in a good position, but
1:37:16
the problem with Hollabock is he hasn't really performed in the
1:37:19
playoffs. He did it for Team USA, but he
1:37:22
hasn't performed in the playoffs.
1:37:23
We all know what he is. He's the best United States
1:37:25
goaltender. He's going to be a Hall of
1:37:27
Famer. He's special.
1:37:28
He really is. And we've seen the Buffalo
1:37:31
Sabres always have great, great goaltending.
1:37:33
They've always had great goaltending over the years.
1:37:36
Dominique Cash, we could go on and on and on of great
1:37:38
goaltending. I I just, I don't know if I'm
1:37:41
giving up that much for Connor Hollabock.
1:37:43
There are other guys that are going to be available.
1:37:46
You have I, I've heard that the Sabres have a a goaltender right
1:37:50
now in the farm system that's very high on their, you know, on
1:37:53
their charts as an NHL star goaltender.
1:37:55
So I don't know if I'm going to reach and, and go digging if I
1:37:59
don't need to. That's all I'm going to say.
1:38:01
Yeah. I think if you're going to trade
1:38:03
thing, definitely don't trade power.
1:38:04
I would not. Do that at any cost, even if the
1:38:06
even if Winnipeg takes on the entire contract, I wouldn't even
1:38:08
do that. But you have enough young, young
1:38:11
guys you could trade. I think Josh Doe, maybe you
1:38:12
would trade. You would make that trade.
1:38:14
No, not for power. I think power has a lot.
1:38:16
More I don't think I make that trade.
1:38:17
Period. OK, Yeah, no, that's what I'm
1:38:19
saying if. Winnipeg wants power and then
1:38:21
says. Power.
1:38:21
Nothing. I'd shut it down.
1:38:22
And you got to pay him. Yeah, so right.
1:38:25
Even if Winnipeg takes that whole.
1:38:26
How old is Conor Hollabock 30? Three, I believe.
1:38:28
Yeah, I'm not. I'm not doing that.
1:38:29
Power's 21. He's got untapped.
1:38:31
Potential. I wouldn't trade him at any
1:38:32
cost. By any means runs me of the
1:38:34
Florida move. Yeah, Josh Doe or something.
1:38:37
Like that Norris who you mentioned?
1:38:38
Fish in the deal, maybe you will consider that with a couple
1:38:41
prospects. OK, fine, you do that.
1:38:43
You have Winnipeg take on some of that deal.
1:38:44
As far as Tuck, I would I would consider it a little bit because
1:38:47
you need some veteran leadership on that team.
1:38:49
If they can make the money, work in other areas if they can, but
1:38:53
they're running out of time. So that's what makes it a very
1:38:55
tough decision. Byram, I think once 5 1/2 a year
1:38:57
I would give it to him, but we'll see if they can make it
1:38:59
work with both him and Tuck. All right, the carousel keep on
1:39:03
spinning. Around next time.
1:39:05
It's crazy man, I I love Connor Hollabuck, but. 33 years old
1:39:10
giving up some young stars and young studs that this team has
1:39:13
been so bad and they've built built this for so many years of
1:39:17
just terrible hockey. And now all of a sudden you got
1:39:20
a 33 year old Connor Hollabuck. It reminds me of Bob Brodsky.
1:39:23
That's what that's what Florida did.
1:39:24
And I just it doesn't make any and I wasn't a trade either.
1:39:27
No, they gave him a contract to you contract and and I was at
1:39:30
the tail end of his great yes, Bob Brodsky helped him win 2
1:39:33
Stanley Cups. There's no question that he did.
1:39:35
But look at the team that he had around though.
1:39:36
And also six years into the contract and everything.
1:39:38
That was horrible. Yeah, I, I.
1:39:40
I'd stay far, far away from that if.
1:39:42
I'm the Buffalo Sabres. That's all I'm going to say.
1:39:44
I hope they listen to me. I doubt they are, but that's all
1:39:48
I got to say about that. Anyways, we're going to get into
1:39:51
a new segment. We've been doing this for the
1:39:53
last couple of weeks. We call this on this day, and
1:39:56
now what we're going to do right here is go back.
1:39:59
Way back. Back into time, it's time for on
1:40:02
this day, on this. Day, All right, guys, welcome.
1:40:08
To the segment. On this day where I'm going to
1:40:11
tell you what happened on this day in sports history, Speedy,
1:40:16
if we got some music, throw it on at this time.
1:40:18
He did. For on this day, 1923 was the
1:40:24
inaugural 24 Hours of Le Mans endurance race which is held in
1:40:29
France every year since then. It's been going on for over 100
1:40:32
years. Some good movies about that as
1:40:35
well that have come out in recent years. 1959 Pirates
1:40:38
pitcher Harvey Haddix pitched a 12 perfect innings game against
1:40:43
the Milwaukee Braves, but lost the game in the 13th inning due
1:40:48
to an error and unearned run. The the most unlucky great
1:40:53
pitching performance in possibly in baseball history.
1:40:56
Those are kind of obscure. 1987 Byrd steals the ball, the famous
1:41:02
steal of Isaiah Thomas in game five of the Eastern Conference
1:41:06
finals, which turned the tide of that series for the Celtics.
1:41:11
And in 1988, the Oilers defeated the Bruins to win their 4th
1:41:15
Stanley Cup in five years. Those are all the appetizers,
1:41:18
boys, because I got a video of the greatest thing that happened
1:41:22
on this day in 1993. Here it is, the at bat, a long
1:41:30
fly. Ball.
1:41:30
And there it is, Jose. Canseco has it.
1:41:32
Oh, no, off the top of his head and over right field Texas guys
1:41:41
we've seen. This highlight.
1:41:42
Probably forever. This was not a good fielder.
1:41:46
He ends up making this humiliating play hit a lot of
1:41:49
home runs in his career also gave one back and any good
1:41:53
memories about the worst defensive play perhaps in all
1:41:57
time and some plays like that you've seen in your history
1:42:00
playing sports. I will say this, it's not the
1:42:02
worst defensive play I've ever seen.
1:42:04
It's. Just the dumbest.
1:42:05
That might be the dumbest defensive play I've ever seen.
1:42:08
And that's something I'm going to use in that roast that I'm
1:42:10
going to be doing in October, November, which I'm sure I'm
1:42:14
going to have people falling off their chair.
1:42:18
I don't like Jose Canseco for what he's done to baseball.
1:42:21
He shouldn't have opened his mouth.
1:42:23
One thing you don't do is throw your your teammates under the
1:42:27
bus or players under the bus. You keep it in house.
1:42:30
And that's what Jose Canseco did.
1:42:32
He wrote a book. He wanted to make money.
1:42:34
He was thrown under the bus after the the allegations for
1:42:37
steroids. And he said everybody did it,
1:42:39
McGuire did it, Salsa did it. And then every, everything
1:42:42
started to breakdown. Bud Selig, everybody got thrown
1:42:44
under the bus. If if that never happens, maybe
1:42:48
the steroid error never happens. It's because of Jose Canseco.
1:42:51
Yeah, I'll, I'll first comment on on the French one.
1:42:54
Fish, because I know you'll like this as a history teacher.
1:42:57
It's probably a reason why a lot of those African nations that
1:42:59
were previously French colonies are all good distance runners or
1:43:01
the dirt stuff. Barry Bonds would be in the Hall
1:43:03
of Fame right now. Roger Clemens would be in the.
1:43:05
Hall of Fame right now. Mark McGuire would be in the
1:43:08
Hall of Fame right now. Alex Rodriguez would be in the
1:43:10
Hall of Fame right now if it wasn't for Jose Canseco.
1:43:13
And the the 50s one was cool fish too because I remember
1:43:15
there was all these. Obscure like no hitters, perfect
1:43:18
games that were like that. That's definitely got to be the
1:43:19
weirdest one. I forgot the guys day, but I
1:43:21
remember happened. 1959 was cool and then Jose Canseco.
1:43:24
Definitely one of the biggest blunders you ever.
1:43:25
So you're right. Maybe not the dumbest defensive
1:43:27
play ever, but definitely one of the funniest.
1:43:29
What makes no sense is Mike Piazza is in the Hall of Fame.
1:43:32
He. Did star Rhodes, even though it
1:43:33
wasn't, never proved? Can we go on?
1:43:36
I mean, half of these guys are in the Hall of Fame.
1:43:38
That probably on steroids. Who was the first baseman for
1:43:40
the Astros? Jeff Bagwell.
1:43:42
Jeff Bagwell was on all he was doing way too early too.
1:43:44
He got it. He was doing steroids.
1:43:46
They all we're doing steroids. Please.
1:43:49
Please. All right.
1:43:50
That's on this day. Jose Canseco shut the music.
1:43:53
I. I, I, I just, I, I just, I can't
1:43:57
stand Jose Canseco. I am.
1:43:59
Going to the fact that they want me to do a roast on him, it's
1:44:03
it's going to be perfect because I am going to absolutely slap
1:44:06
him around for 5 minutes. I'm going to make sure I get my
1:44:09
best stuff. I don't need anybody writing for
1:44:11
me. I think I could write for myself
1:44:13
and really throw him onto the bus and completely.
1:44:16
I wouldn't be surprised if he comes on stage and tries to
1:44:18
choke me after, right? I am.
1:44:20
Don't be a Tony here. I might be worse.
1:44:22
I'm. I might be.
1:44:24
Worse. Anyways, if you get the bail
1:44:26
money, you're going to have to bail me out.
