Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: It's a lot of things to get to, some things
- 0:01Speaker 1: from sec media days that I would like to discuss,
- 0:04Speaker 1: and we'll do so shortly.
- 0:06Speaker 2: It is amazing to me.
- 0:08Speaker 1: Though, because as I was on all fours with my
- 0:11Speaker 1: mouth over a toilet for the better part of the
- 0:13Speaker 1: morning yesterday, I decided, it.
- 0:16Speaker 3: Sounds like a pretty good place for you to be.
- 0:18Speaker 2: Yeah, I was.
- 0:22Speaker 1: I've hit this point in my life where all I'm
- 0:24Speaker 1: doing is I'm watching documentaries on.
- 0:27Speaker 2: The history of this country.
- 0:29Speaker 3: Ah, I got him.
- 0:31Speaker 2: Couldn't move from the couch, so I was locked in Vick.
- 0:34Speaker 3: It took me seven years, seven years, but I got him.
- 0:38Speaker 3: Is it the Netflix thing where once you watch one
- 0:40Speaker 3: documentary it gives you a bunch of others to choose from.
- 0:43Speaker 2: So mine is.
- 0:45Speaker 1: More a YouTube rabbit hole. I'm watching these YouTube documentaries
- 0:48Speaker 1: of these things.
- 0:49Speaker 3: I got you.
- 0:49Speaker 2: But it's the same thing once one gets done. Here's
- 0:51Speaker 2: a civil war, here's a closer look at Gettysburg, and
- 0:54Speaker 2: you're like, all right, let's go to that. So I'm
- 0:57Speaker 2: doing a lot of this yesterday.
- 0:58Speaker 1: And here's what he found is that there are times
- 1:02Speaker 1: and moments in the country, whether it's wars, whether it's
- 1:05Speaker 1: some sort of disaster, whether it's the stock market crashing,
- 1:10Speaker 1: whether it's a new invention, something where the world was
- 1:13Speaker 1: one way before it and it was another way afterwards.
- 1:16Speaker 2: That's just how things work.
- 1:19Speaker 1: And then as I'm doing that yesterday, I see the
- 1:21Speaker 1: news of lou Dort and I go, oh, basketball is
- 1:24Speaker 1: the exact same way, isn't it. It doesn't matter if
- 1:27Speaker 1: you're a great team who's on the cusp of a championship,
- 1:29Speaker 1: if you're a team that's sort of in the middle
- 1:31Speaker 1: on the NBA treadmill. You have to do business in
- 1:36Speaker 1: a certain way, and it's not all that different between
- 1:39Speaker 1: the great teams who are championship contenders and ones that aren't.
- 1:44Speaker 2: The easiest team to be right now in the NBA
- 1:46Speaker 2: is a.
- 1:46Speaker 1: Bad one because you don't worry about second aprons and
- 1:49Speaker 1: where your contracts are. You're trading players for draft picks
- 1:53Speaker 1: and trying to build your way up. But it's always
- 1:56Speaker 1: kind of been. You know, when the Golden State War is.
- 1:58Speaker 4: Here, the Charlotte Hornets, you're out of it, but you're
- 2:02Speaker 4: a winning team. Here's kind of doing your thing.
- 2:04Speaker 2: But when the Warriors won seventy three games, they added
- 2:08Speaker 2: Kevin Durant.
- 2:09Speaker 1: Those days are gone. That doesn't exist anymore. You don't
- 2:12Speaker 1: just add talent like that to a team that's already
- 2:14Speaker 1: that great.
- 2:15Speaker 3: You out if you're in the Apron.
- 2:16Speaker 1: No, like the Oklahoma City Thunder, if there was any
- 2:20Speaker 1: team I could have chosen with their talent and youth
- 2:24Speaker 1: on that roster, like their best players are in their
- 2:28Speaker 1: low to mid twenties, Shay's twenty eight, Jalen Williams is
- 2:32Speaker 1: twenty five. That's a team that you would say, Hey,
- 2:34Speaker 1: if there's any team that's going in the second Apron,
- 2:36Speaker 1: it's that one. Or how about the team who just
- 2:38Speaker 1: won a title last year and both of them are
- 2:40Speaker 1: like not doing it. There's no way for us to
- 2:44Speaker 1: continue to do business in a manner if it's over
- 2:48Speaker 1: that second Apron. And all I think about now is,
- 2:51Speaker 1: you know, it feels like your entire sort of offseason,
- 2:54Speaker 1: because the Nuggets offseason hasn't even started yet. If you
- 2:57Speaker 1: really think about it, they signed badly and highas Jones.
- 3:01Speaker 1: Their off season starts when Lebron makes a decision, which
- 3:04Speaker 1: then sets the dominoes in place for Peyton Watson to
- 3:07Speaker 1: make a decision.
- 3:08Speaker 2: That's when it starts.
- 3:09Speaker 3: You know this, this Peyton Watson thing, it could take
- 3:13Speaker 3: a while. It has taken. I mean, I mean it
- 3:16Speaker 3: could go through to the season. I mean we can
- 3:20Speaker 3: be here the day before the regular season tips off
- 3:24Speaker 3: and not have a contract in place.
- 3:26Speaker 4: That would be less than ideal. Less than ideal, you
- 3:30Speaker 4: know when you're so right about that, Brett vick You
- 3:32Speaker 4: know what's amazing to me about this whole second apron thing.
- 3:35Speaker 4: And again, Brett, when you were on your knees.
- 3:39Speaker 2: Yesterday when I was ejecting Taco bell run, I don't
- 3:44Speaker 2: know it was the front side. Oh yeah, not one
- 3:47Speaker 2: of your parasitic things everybody's talking about right now, the
- 3:50Speaker 2: front side.
- 3:50Speaker 3: How do you know? Have you've done self diagnosis for parasites? Yes?
- 3:53Speaker 3: I have, not, not being said we were.
- 3:55Speaker 2: I think they're gone though, Okay, good, Well once you
- 3:59Speaker 2: once you dry heat for two hours and nothing, You're like,
- 4:02Speaker 2: I think whatever is there is probably gone, vick Vic.
- 4:05Speaker 1: That's why just sorry, motion remember what you're gonna say
- 4:07Speaker 1: as a quick aside, when you asked you want to
- 4:10Speaker 1: play golf tomorrow. The only reason I'm hesitating, my entire
- 4:16Speaker 1: top half of my body is in so much pain.
- 4:19Speaker 1: Two hours of dry heating. I don't know if I
- 4:22Speaker 1: could swing a club, but we're gonna try. But it's
- 4:24Speaker 1: all every inside, my shoulders, my back, everything, So go
- 4:27Speaker 1: ahead money.
- 4:28Speaker 3: Uh.
- 4:28Speaker 4: The thing is, though, VIC, what's amazing to me is
- 4:30Speaker 4: you even have these big market teams like the Biggins, right,
- 4:35Speaker 4: they are fleeing from the apron as well. I mean,
- 4:39Speaker 4: the Boston Celtics won a title and then they're like,
- 4:43Speaker 4: we can't.
- 4:44Speaker 2: But they they tried for a second. They tried it,
- 4:47Speaker 2: but they like, oh no, yeah.
- 4:48Speaker 4: Then they sold the team anyway, but they're like ho
- 4:51Speaker 4: ho ho ho we I mean, you think the Boston Celtics,
- 4:54Speaker 4: like the Lakers and the Knicks and whatever, they got
- 4:56Speaker 4: all the money in the world. They print money so
- 4:59Speaker 4: on even they're like, ah, we can't do this, man,
- 5:04Speaker 4: the risk is just way too insane. So if that's
- 5:08Speaker 4: the case, is the second apron working out the way
- 5:11Speaker 4: it's intended, Vic, or is it prohibitive?
- 5:16Speaker 3: I think it can be both. I think it's prohibitive
- 5:18Speaker 3: for some players, but it's intended for the NBA itself.
- 5:22Speaker 3: This is what they want. They want sort of a
- 5:24Speaker 3: self policing set of handcuffs, and that's what they are
- 5:29Speaker 3: They've had eight straight.
- 5:30Speaker 2: Different champions in eight straight years.
- 5:32Speaker 1: Like, I think that is ideally as a league, that's
- 5:35Speaker 1: what you want everybody gets And think about it, a
- 5:38Speaker 1: quarter of the league is won a title in the
- 5:40Speaker 1: last decade. I think as a league, that's what you want.
- 5:42Speaker 1: You want everybody to feel like we got a shot
- 5:44Speaker 1: going into the season. Now, it sucks for the teams
- 5:48Speaker 1: who climb the mountaintop because you don't feel like you
- 5:50Speaker 1: get any.
- 5:52Speaker 2: I just gonna say any benefit. I mean, you win
- 5:53Speaker 2: the title, that's the benefit.
- 5:55Speaker 1: But it's hard to keep that same group together for
- 5:59Speaker 1: a long time. Well, look, other sports have this, you know,
- 6:02Speaker 1: when you get teams that win.
- 6:03Speaker 2: The Super Bowl. We just watched, you know, the Seahawks.
- 6:07Speaker 1: They couldn't afford Kenneth Walker and a couple other guys
- 6:09Speaker 1: in that defense. Because when you get good and you
- 6:11Speaker 1: have good enough players to win a title, those players
- 6:13Speaker 1: need to get paid and maybe you don't have the
- 6:15Speaker 1: cash for it. But it is like, to me, the
- 6:20Speaker 1: one thing that we still don't have an answer to.
- 6:26Speaker 1: And when did like free agency open up thick? Was
- 6:29Speaker 1: it like around the fourth of July, first of July,
- 6:32Speaker 1: So it's been three weeks. Yeah, we have no idea
- 6:36Speaker 1: still what the Nuggets offseason is going to be because
- 6:38Speaker 1: it's all sort of hinging on what happens with Peyton Watson,
- 6:41Speaker 1: right because you would think if Peyton Watson, if they
- 6:43Speaker 1: get a deal done for him, there's a subsequent move
- 6:45Speaker 1: to be made afterwards, whether that's trading a Cam Johnson
- 6:49Speaker 1: or whoever.
- 6:50Speaker 2: I mean, because you do have to get back beneath
- 6:52Speaker 2: the apron to get after that.
- 6:53Speaker 3: Do you know which team in the NBA currently has
- 6:56Speaker 3: the highest payroll? Cleveland? No, let me guess, hold on
- 7:03Speaker 3: highest payroll, highest payroll currently in the NBA, but.
- 7:09Speaker 1: It still technically the Clippers because of the waffling Kawhid
- 7:14Speaker 1: the Clippers is it?
- 7:15Speaker 3: It's your Denver Nuggets, and that's without Peyton Watson's right now,
- 7:21Speaker 3: it's the it's the Nuggeloos. The highest payroll in the NBA.
- 7:28Speaker 3: Number two is Oklahoma City, which rid itself of the
- 7:32Speaker 3: lou Dort deal. Number three is Memphis. Number four is Portland,
- 7:38Speaker 3: And if you go all the way down the list,
- 7:40Speaker 3: the lowest payroll right now belongs to Utah.
- 7:43Speaker 1: Well, listen to this. This isn't me crying for Oklahoma city.
- 7:47Speaker 1: But just on the surface, imagine this for a second.
- 7:51Speaker 1: Is loudword a good player, he's a great role.
- 7:57Speaker 2: He got traded for three second rounders. Yeah, and why
- 8:01Speaker 2: is that he couldn't get off that contract? And teams
- 8:04Speaker 2: know it. They know it, like you lose all negotiating
- 8:07Speaker 2: power when it comes to that when it's like, I
- 8:10Speaker 2: know you're trying to shed salary.
- 8:11Speaker 1: I'm not giving you anything. You're desperate take whatever I
- 8:14Speaker 1: give you. And that is if you sign Watson back
- 8:18Speaker 1: and have to make another move, you ain't trading Cam
- 8:21Speaker 1: Johnson play a first round pick, you know what I mean.
- 8:23Speaker 1: That's not just it's not happening because they know the
- 8:26Speaker 1: situation you're in.
- 8:28Speaker 2: And that's another part of this, when.
- 8:33Speaker 1: Like, if lou Dort was open market without any of
- 8:36Speaker 1: this hanging over the Thunder's head on a cap thing,
- 8:38Speaker 1: would lou Dort net a first round or probably I
- 8:40Speaker 1: think he's good enough for a first could yes it's.
- 8:43Speaker 3: A late first round?
- 8:44Speaker 4: Or sure, Vick, what's amazing when you talk about the
- 8:48Speaker 4: salaries in the payrolls, Memphis sucks. Memphis is not a
- 8:56Speaker 4: good basketball team. Yeah, Memphis now with dudes, Memphis is
- 9:01Speaker 4: not good at all. Imagine paying the third highest payroll
- 9:06Speaker 4: in the league for twenty five wins. Yeah, yeah, I mean,
- 9:11Speaker 4: it's ain't my problem. I'm just saying I'd much rather
- 9:14Speaker 4: I'd much rather be Hey, we were this close. You know,
- 9:18Speaker 4: we had this injury and this injury and whatever else.
- 9:21Speaker 4: We need some pieces, but we're still a playoff team
- 9:24Speaker 4: and could make a run with the best player on
- 9:26Speaker 4: the planet and another All Star as opposed to twenty
- 9:28Speaker 4: five wins.
- 9:29Speaker 2: I did see this, by the way, it made me laugh.
- 9:31Speaker 1: This guy on Twitter said, my son is a huge
- 9:34Speaker 1: lou DRF fan, so he was devastated about the trade.
- 9:36Speaker 2: Who did we get in return?
- 9:38Speaker 1: He said, I explained it was three picks, and his
- 9:40Speaker 1: sadness turned a joy when he realized, okay, see, he
- 9:42Speaker 1: had shed two hundred and twenty four million in payroll
- 9:44Speaker 1: and tax and positioned themselves comfortably in the second apron
- 9:47Speaker 1: or under the second April. It is like, that is
- 9:49Speaker 1: what the sport is now. You get good, and it's
- 9:52Speaker 1: just like, how do we stay good but also not
- 9:54Speaker 1: hit that sort of threshold.
- 9:59Speaker 2: But it it's it's a new world that you're living
- 10:01Speaker 2: in and the only thing I find.
- 10:05Speaker 1: Really weird about the Watson news. Why do you think
- 10:09Speaker 1: another team has not offered something yet.
- 10:12Speaker 3: Because I think they know that the Nuggets hold the
- 10:15Speaker 3: cards here they can match and if they do make
- 10:18Speaker 3: that offer, ties that money up where they could possibly
- 10:22Speaker 3: use it elsewhere. Or maybe they're just trying to wait
- 10:25Speaker 3: this out to see if they can negotiate a sign
- 10:27Speaker 3: in trade, or maybe they're negotiating with Peyton Watson's people
- 10:33Speaker 3: saying how much do you do we think you're worth.
- 10:35Speaker 3: Here's the number we're gonna throw. There's negotiations beyond the negotiations. Yeah,
- 10:40Speaker 3: like Clutch Sports could be negotiating right now with Brooklyn
- 10:46Speaker 3: or with Milwaukee saying we want to contract this many years,
- 10:49Speaker 3: this many years. Then they go to the Nuggets that say,
- 10:52Speaker 3: all right, here's what you need for the sign and trade.
- 10:53Speaker 3: Here's what you're gonna get in return. You're negotiating two
- 10:56Speaker 3: different deals. Essentially true.
- 11:00Speaker 4: Plus I see the Rich Paul says that Lebron is
- 11:03Speaker 4: not going to be quote rushed.
- 11:04Speaker 3: Into any decision.
- 11:05Speaker 2: Oh my god.
- 11:07Speaker 4: Okay, well that's I mean, that's a pretty big domino
- 11:09Speaker 4: to fall, like the biggest domino of the offseason. As
- 11:13Speaker 4: VIC talked about yesterday, because once he goes someplace, that
- 11:16Speaker 4: team's probably gonna have to let somebody go, and then
- 11:18Speaker 4: that team's get you know, it's gonna start doing one
- 11:20Speaker 4: of those kind of things.
- 11:21Speaker 3: It's a trickle down effect.
- 11:23Speaker 4: So a lot of teams, I'm sure, just waiting to
- 11:25Speaker 4: see what his decision is. And right now he's like, Eh, Mitchill, Okay,
- 11:30Speaker 4: what is the rush?
- 11:33Speaker 1: I feel like we've just known this for a long time.
- 11:35Speaker 1: People have made their pitches at this point. Is it
- 11:40Speaker 1: being rushed anymore? Or is it being fair.
- 11:42Speaker 2: To be like, can you just can you just choose?
- 11:45Speaker 2: I have a heart. Here's I guess what I'm saying.
- 11:48Speaker 1: I don't think Lebron's sitting at home with a glass
- 11:50Speaker 1: of veno on his patio and his mansion in La
- 11:55Speaker 1: going hmm. I really have to weigh the pros and
- 11:58Speaker 1: cons of Philio For Cleve, I think you.
- 12:01Speaker 2: Have all the information. I don't think you're struggling anymore,
- 12:04Speaker 2: like you know, and it's just dragging your feet. And
- 12:07Speaker 2: that's making me mad because.
- 12:08Speaker 3: What's what's he waiting on? Do you think no clue,
- 12:15Speaker 3: absolutely zero clue more attention? I don't know, And I
- 12:20Speaker 3: don't know if it's an attention thing. There's gotta be
- 12:22Speaker 3: something he's waiting on that we're not catching here, and
- 12:25Speaker 3: maybe it'll all come together when it's done. But there's
- 12:28Speaker 3: gotta be something.
- 12:29Speaker 1: Like he's waiting for a team to make another move
- 12:31Speaker 1: for somebody or something. I don't know, Like what isn't
- 12:35Speaker 1: that what Kawai did? Kawhi waited until the Clippers got
- 12:38Speaker 1: Paul George before he signed off on the trade.
- 12:40Speaker 2: Isn't that what happened something?
- 12:41Speaker 3: That's what it feels like.
- 12:44Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe I just I feel like he's the one
- 12:48Speaker 1: guy that's holding everything up right now. He's I said,
- 12:51Speaker 1: he's your friend at the bar and you and your
- 12:54Speaker 1: other buddy's been wanting to leave forever and this guy
- 12:56Speaker 1: just refuses to not to get one more drink, and
- 12:58Speaker 1: you're like, dude.
- 12:59Speaker 2: We're we're ready, We're all ready, We're done waiting on you. Wait,
- 13:03Speaker 2: let's claim that thing. Three h three five O four
- 13:07Speaker 2: nine two five.
- 13:08Speaker 3: So there's always that guy you have to drag out
- 13:10Speaker 3: of the bar every time, every time, always that guy,
- 13:14Speaker 3: and Hosier, you're that guy.
- 13:15Speaker 2: I am not that guy. I can promise you that
- 13:18Speaker 2: I'm sort of an Irish goodbye. Dude, hold on, are
- 13:22Speaker 2: we doing the Rockies game tonight or not? I don't
- 13:26Speaker 2: think I can do it.
- 13:26Speaker 3: I'm just dude.
- 13:29Speaker 2: I I don't know what to tell you. My body's
- 13:30Speaker 2: shut down yesterday. I can't do it, Moser.
- 13:37Speaker 4: I think if we're going to do it, we should
- 13:38Speaker 4: do it as a as a total unit.
- 13:40Speaker 3: Try no Rockies game for our unit tonight. Great.
- 13:44Speaker 1: Well, and Nelly's not here either, that's another thing. Yeah,
- 13:49Speaker 1: I think we wait, so it's never going to happen.
- 13:51Speaker 2: No, I think we just push it like the week
- 13:53Speaker 2: and a half.
- 13:53Speaker 4: You're you, you'll be sick or Vick will be pissed
- 13:56Speaker 4: or something's gonna happen.
- 13:58Speaker 3: All Ye's Flut's gonna get stuck someplace.
- 14:01Speaker 2: Why would he get stuck?
- 14:02Speaker 3: I don't know.
- 14:04Speaker 1: I think Nelly went under the knife. By the way,
- 14:07Speaker 1: I allowed to say that.
- 14:08Speaker 3: Was that a voluntary deal?
- 14:09Speaker 2: I think so.
- 14:10Speaker 3: His circumcision, Okay, you know he said when he was
- 14:17Speaker 3: it's just laughing arts.
- 14:19Speaker 4: I know.
- 14:20Speaker 3: You know he said when he was in France, he
- 14:21Speaker 3: was going to contact us. He went to France for
- 14:24Speaker 3: a circumcision. He was he was in France with his
- 14:32Speaker 3: band playing at this music festival and in the middle
- 14:37Speaker 3: of France, South middle of France. Hey, let let Burdo
- 14:42Speaker 3: know when he has to list all the reasons people
- 14:45Speaker 3: are missing. Put that one down for Nelly. All right,
- 14:48Speaker 3: French circumcision. Okay, Nelly not.
- 14:52Speaker 1: Here, he is being circumcised at the moment. All right,
- 14:57Speaker 1: there's some audio. All right, I guess some quotes from
- 15:00Speaker 1: SEC Media Days. And I've already it's July twenty first,
- 15:04Speaker 1: I've headed up to here with the.
- 15:06Speaker 3: You know what I am here, I am such a
- 15:08Speaker 3: I know we'll get to this vic. I'm telling you
- 15:11Speaker 3: right now, these sc snobs, these people, the amount of
- 15:21Speaker 3: self adoration they have, it really is remarkable.
- 15:26Speaker 2: I'll give you a couple of days.
- 15:27Speaker 3: They want to be their own world, and you know
- 15:29Speaker 3: what I'm I'm getting this close to letting them.
- 15:33Speaker 1: They get to hear some of the quotes as to
- 15:38Speaker 1: why they rule and everybody else sucks next. All right,
- 15:41Speaker 1: So SEC Media Days is happening. Uh, there's things I
- 15:47Speaker 1: expect from SEC Media Days, one of them being SEC
- 15:50Speaker 1: Commissioner Greg Sank saying no one has created the weekly
- 15:55Speaker 1: competition that exists in the Southeastern Conference. We believe we're
- 15:58Speaker 1: the best conference accoutge football.
- 16:00Speaker 2: That's normal. That's just the typical SEC bravado that I expect.
- 16:05Speaker 3: Now.
- 16:05Speaker 2: What I don't like is stuff like this.
- 16:07Speaker 1: Missouri's Eli Drinkowitz. So he looks like you're high school
- 16:10Speaker 1: science teacher.
- 16:13Speaker 2: But he is the head man at Missouri.
- 16:16Speaker 3: He said.
- 16:17Speaker 1: Part of the reason the Big Ten has won three
- 16:19Speaker 1: national titles is because they don't. They are not forced
- 16:23Speaker 1: to play a non conference a four game, which is
- 16:27Speaker 1: power for and he's I think taking a shot at Indiana.
- 16:31Speaker 1: Indiana does schedule pretty easy non conference games at the
- 16:34Speaker 1: beginning of the year. I think that's probably smart to do.
- 16:37Speaker 1: Would I like to see them play somebody better? Sure,
- 16:41Speaker 1: but this all gets offset And this is what I
- 16:44Speaker 1: hate about this.
- 16:45Speaker 2: It's going to change, I think this year.
- 16:49Speaker 1: But for a conference that only played eight conference games,
- 16:52Speaker 1: so that week ten, they could play mercer. When the
- 16:55Speaker 1: schedule is at it's toughest, you're dealing with injuries and attrition,
- 16:58Speaker 1: and you're dealing with just the dog.
- 16:59Speaker 2: Days of his season.
- 17:01Speaker 1: Maybe that's the part of the year where you play
- 17:02Speaker 1: a lesser team in your conference, but you can get
- 17:05Speaker 1: bit because you weren't focused enough because you're waiting for
- 17:08Speaker 1: the end of the season, they get essentially.
- 17:10Speaker 2: A bye week. And I hate when people bring this
- 17:15Speaker 2: up because.
- 17:18Speaker 1: All they fall back to is were the best conference
- 17:20Speaker 1: in the league.
- 17:22Speaker 2: And that can't be consistently.
- 17:24Speaker 1: Your go to is that what were the best conference
- 17:27Speaker 1: in the league? Okay, so what you might think that
- 17:33Speaker 1: the Big ten's pretty damn good.
- 17:35Speaker 3: The answer is given in the tournament. When you play
- 17:38Speaker 3: in the tournament, you played teams from other conferences? How
- 17:40Speaker 3: do you do against those other teams? And there's your answer.
- 17:43Speaker 1: Well, and to push back in Eli Drinkowitz, two years ago,
- 17:47Speaker 1: Ohio State won the national title. Who did they play
- 17:50Speaker 1: in Week one the following year?
- 17:51Speaker 2: Do you guys remember?
- 17:52Speaker 1: No, it was the number one team in the country,
- 17:54Speaker 1: Texas number one team and beat them fourteen to seven.
- 17:58Speaker 1: So I think all of the it's just it sounds
- 18:01Speaker 1: like such cope from the SEC every year if they
- 18:03Speaker 1: don't win, because if they do, then it becomes yes see,
- 18:06Speaker 1: I told you so. But the years that they don't,
- 18:08Speaker 1: and that's now three straight years in which the Big
- 18:11Speaker 1: Ten is one, it just drives me nuts because it
- 18:13Speaker 1: always feels like if the only thing you're going to
- 18:16Speaker 1: tell me as well, we're the best conference in the country.
- 18:18Speaker 2: It's like, okay, depending on what exactly.
- 18:22Speaker 3: Yeah, well, they're protecting a reputation. And every time I
- 18:25Speaker 3: hear from Greg SANKI I can't help but think of
- 18:27Speaker 3: the coffee Sanka.
- 18:29Speaker 4: Mosh uh that does not exist anymore. I know, well,
- 18:33Speaker 4: Senka was it was a non caffeinated it was decaffeinated coffee,
- 18:38Speaker 4: Senka instant coffee.
- 18:40Speaker 2: Senka was also a bobsledter on the Jamaican bob sled team.
- 18:43Speaker 3: Really yeah, SWINGNK is also a singer. Uh. The point
- 18:48Speaker 3: is they're protecting, They're protecting the pride. That's what they're doing.
- 18:53Speaker 3: I get it. I understand it. It feels like it
- 18:58Speaker 3: feels like the SEC.
- 19:01Speaker 4: We're a famous musician. The SEC would be like being
- 19:06Speaker 4: on tour with Elton John because they know that he
- 19:11Speaker 4: knows he's good, he knows he's awesome, all these hit records,
- 19:14Speaker 4: Da da da da da da, But also probably such
- 19:18Speaker 4: a pain of the ass diva to deal with it all.
- 19:23Speaker 2: What I'm saying is they do this for a specific purpose,
- 19:27Speaker 2: and vic you know exactly what it is. If they
- 19:30Speaker 2: can keep up this thing and repeat this over and
- 19:32Speaker 2: over and over again. Then they're gonna get the benefit
- 19:35Speaker 2: of the doubt with losses.
- 19:36Speaker 1: And that's how you get a three loss Bama team
- 19:38Speaker 1: that makes the playoff.
- 19:39Speaker 3: I had, but two loss Notre Dame team. That's how
- 19:41Speaker 3: they do it. But they do it by saying we're
- 19:43Speaker 3: better because we have more competition, and a three loss
- 19:45Speaker 3: team in our conference is better than a two lost
- 19:47Speaker 3: team out of a conference or a two loss team
- 19:50Speaker 3: in this other conference. That's exactly what they do. If
- 19:52Speaker 3: you keep telling the world you're the best, eventually people
- 19:56Speaker 3: may snarl, people may snicker, but eventually this is what happens.
- 20:00Speaker 3: And it also helps that they're in bed their actual
- 20:03Speaker 3: conference and the way it's broadcast is in bed with
- 20:07Speaker 3: the organization that runs the CFP.
- 20:10Speaker 2: Well, here's the other thing, and them repeating the were
- 20:13Speaker 2: the best in the world or best in the country thing.
- 20:18Speaker 2: You know what's funny. And this has been my biggest
- 20:21Speaker 2: beef I think with college football is that it is
- 20:24Speaker 2: so hard for college football, and especially conferences.
- 20:27Speaker 1: Like the SEC, to allow for a team to catch
- 20:30Speaker 1: lightning in a bottle, like they refuse to believe. If
- 20:32Speaker 1: you haven't been in the national conversation, if you haven't
- 20:35Speaker 1: been good for like four straight years, then the good
- 20:37Speaker 1: year that you do have doesn't matter because you're not
- 20:40Speaker 1: real and.
- 20:41Speaker 3: I'll see they'll give you doesn't happen. What what what
- 20:46Speaker 3: Indiana just did Historically, it doesn't happen.
- 20:49Speaker 1: This is exactly what I'm talking about. Though Indiana didn't
- 20:52Speaker 1: come out of nowhere last year. Indiana was ten and
- 20:56Speaker 1: oher heading into Week eleven the year prior, playing Ohio
- 20:59Speaker 1: State for a chance to be in the Big Ten
- 21:01Speaker 1: Championship game. And yes they lost to Ohio State. They
- 21:04Speaker 1: finished that year eleven and one.
- 21:05Speaker 2: For them to do what they did last year was
- 21:07Speaker 2: not a surprise if you watch what they did the
- 21:09Speaker 2: year before. But we all treat it as like a
- 21:11Speaker 2: surprise because Indiana didn't do it four years ago. And
- 21:14Speaker 2: that's all I'm getting at.
- 21:15Speaker 1: They don't allow for teams to catch lightning in a
- 21:18Speaker 1: bottle for a year. Maybe you've got a really good
- 21:19Speaker 1: quarterback one season and that's all it takes. But unless
- 21:23Speaker 1: you have like these ties to a I'll give you
- 21:26Speaker 1: a perfect example because I lived it every year when
- 21:29Speaker 1: I was in Lincoln. Despite Nebraska sucking, they were in
- 21:31Speaker 1: the top twenty five preseason every year. It didn't matter
- 21:34Speaker 1: how bad they were the year before. It's like they
- 21:36Speaker 1: just got the benefit of like, well, I remember you
- 21:39Speaker 1: from the nineties and you guys won some national titles
- 21:42Speaker 1: and the same thing would happen. Remember how bad Florida
- 21:44Speaker 1: State was last year. Weren't they a one win team?
- 21:47Speaker 1: If Florida State starts the year three and ozho, are
- 21:48Speaker 1: they going to be ranked in the top twenty five?
- 21:50Speaker 3: Probably yeah, probably so.
- 21:52Speaker 2: But if I don't know, SMU does it again, will
- 21:56Speaker 2: they Probably not? And that's all I'm getting at. Well,
- 21:59Speaker 2: you can continue to perpetuate this thing of we're the best,
- 22:03Speaker 2: We're the best, were the best. That's what they're looking for,
- 22:06Speaker 2: that's what they.
- 22:06Speaker 3: Want because that becomes ingrained in people's heads.
- 22:08Speaker 4: And you know what, Listen when I look at the SEC, Yeah,
- 22:12Speaker 4: that's chalk loaded with talent.
- 22:16Speaker 3: And you know we talk about blue bloods. But I mean,
- 22:19Speaker 3: don't forget oh miss finished third. Yeah, you know what
- 22:24Speaker 3: I mean, Like and they honestly thinking about it nowhere.
- 22:27Speaker 4: But you know, you have a lot of very good
- 22:30Speaker 4: teams in that conference, and it's it's not hard.
- 22:34Speaker 3: For me to say that.
- 22:35Speaker 4: That being said, where's the line of demarcation with what
- 22:39Speaker 4: you're talking about, Brett. Where's the line of deforcation with
- 22:41Speaker 4: the team that that VIC that that hasn't always been
- 22:45Speaker 4: a winner but has strung some stuff together. But when
- 22:48Speaker 4: do you earn the benefit of the doubt in the
- 22:50Speaker 4: eyes of the SEC.
- 22:51Speaker 3: Has the benefit of the doubt because.
- 22:54Speaker 4: The diego Pavia No, no, no, no, no, no, They're
- 22:58Speaker 4: gonna go back to being a four win team.
- 23:00Speaker 3: Disagree. I think that's going to be a much better
- 23:01Speaker 3: program now. And NIL change ways from maybe maybe maybe.
- 23:08Speaker 3: And I think some kids understand, well I keep calling
- 23:11Speaker 3: them kids going to a Vanderbilt now in the SEC,
- 23:16Speaker 3: especially if you're someone that's not going to make a
- 23:18Speaker 3: ton of money in NIL and having that degree that
- 23:22Speaker 3: might mean something to a lot of those guys. Having
- 23:26Speaker 3: a degree from Bandy, Yeah might mean something. Well, if
- 23:29Speaker 3: you're gonna be a doctor, I guess yeah. I mean
- 23:31Speaker 3: even more than that. Not every one of these guys
- 23:34Speaker 3: is going to go to the NFL or the UFL
- 23:37Speaker 3: or the whatever, the FL, CFL. A lot of these
- 23:39Speaker 3: dudes understand that this is where the money's going to
- 23:41Speaker 3: be had and it ends there, so you might as
- 23:44Speaker 3: well get that paper get that degree.
- 23:46Speaker 1: You know what's funny though, Ole Miss, who I thought
- 23:49Speaker 1: was fun, fun team all of that. Ole Miss throughout
- 23:53Speaker 1: their schedule last year, they finished eleven and one. In
- 23:56Speaker 1: the regular season, they played three ranked teams. One of
- 24:01Speaker 1: them was LSU, who was ranked number four, and then
- 24:03Speaker 1: LSU fell off a cliff.
- 24:05Speaker 2: Okay, they lost like five or six.
- 24:07Speaker 1: They played Georgia and they lost by eight, and then
- 24:10Speaker 1: they played Oklahoma and they won thirty four to twenty six.
- 24:13Speaker 1: All the other ones were Florida, who was terrible, South Carolina,
- 24:16Speaker 1: the Citadel, Tulane.
- 24:19Speaker 3: Of course, but it's the perception, right. But my schedule, Hey,
- 24:25Speaker 3: we played Florida, so what we played Kentucky? So what
- 24:31Speaker 3: we played South Carolina? Oh my god, let me ride
- 24:34Speaker 3: home to mom.
- 24:35Speaker 1: Florida, by the way, was two and six, Kentucky was
- 24:37Speaker 1: two and six, and South Carolina's one of seven in conference.
- 24:40Speaker 2: Play life.
- 24:40Speaker 3: That's what I'm saying. We play an SEC schedule. Who
- 24:45Speaker 3: the hell cares? We played Mississippi State in Arkansas, Oh boy,
- 24:51Speaker 3: they were one seven and zero to eight in conference.
- 24:53Speaker 2: Played those two teams.
- 24:54Speaker 3: You know who really stinks? The Arkansas Pigs.
- 24:58Speaker 2: Say what you want to say, I know what you
- 25:01Speaker 2: want to say.
- 25:02Speaker 3: Our hillbilly buddy Brandon. That was Let's see that. That's
- 25:07Speaker 3: the point, man. The point is just because they have name,
- 25:10Speaker 3: stature and they've been in your league doesn't make it
- 25:13Speaker 3: a tough schedule. So why is their strength to schedule
- 25:16Speaker 3: automatically higher than others?
- 25:18Speaker 4: This is why because you keep repeating it's not a lie,
- 25:21Speaker 4: but you keep repeating the prop You keep repeating the
- 25:24Speaker 4: propaganda long enough people will go, yeah, SEC's rad top
- 25:29Speaker 4: the bottom red. No, you've had some real crap teams
- 25:32Speaker 4: in that league for some time. By the way, so
- 25:36Speaker 4: we're talking about Indiana. They get signetti, they go eleven
- 25:40Speaker 4: and one, and then they go and win a Natty undefeated.
- 25:44Speaker 2: Pretty good.
- 25:45Speaker 3: Well, yeah, but you see.
- 25:46Speaker 4: Kentucky hired this kid. This kid listen to me, this
- 25:49Speaker 4: cat will Stein, not kidd, he's my age, but he's
- 25:53Speaker 4: a former.
- 25:54Speaker 3: Oc at Oregon.
- 25:58Speaker 4: He's got a little bit of that SIGNETI in him.
- 26:02Speaker 4: Kentucky coach will Stein took to the podium his first
- 26:05Speaker 4: SEC media days asked why he thought he can win
- 26:07Speaker 4: big at the school. Quote, I think because of me,
- 26:09Speaker 4: to be honest. End quote, Well did.
- 26:14Speaker 3: That and then one like every day.
- 26:16Speaker 4: I know, I know, I'm just saying this guy's like, hey, honest,
- 26:20Speaker 4: because it's because of me. Because of me, that's why,
- 26:23Speaker 4: that's why we're gonna do it.
- 26:26Speaker 3: Football gets going here in a few weeks, I know,
- 26:28Speaker 3: training camps. When is ump?
- 26:32Speaker 2: When is week zero? Week zero starts. Let's see August
- 26:36Speaker 2: twenty ninth.
- 26:37Speaker 3: See who opens up against Georgia Tech. Correct, I will
- 26:43Speaker 3: confirm in a moment, Please make that confirmation so that
- 26:47Speaker 3: one of.
- 26:47Speaker 4: The schools I'm thinking of, Brett they earns the benefit
- 26:50Speaker 4: of the doubt, even if they've been down.
- 26:55Speaker 2: Georgia Tech, Yes, as September third, where at Georgia Tech.
- 27:00Speaker 3: Mama Mia is a school like Auburn.
- 27:04Speaker 4: Now, there was a time guys when the Auburn Tigers
- 27:07Speaker 4: were really really good.
- 27:08Speaker 3: Am I right? But have they been down for for
- 27:12Speaker 3: a little while now? A little bit down? A little bit?
- 27:14Speaker 4: Yeah, oh Iron Bowl, it's not what it used to be,
- 27:16Speaker 4: a little bit down. But Auburn gets one class and
- 27:19Speaker 4: they start to and all all of a sudden, their
- 27:21Speaker 4: credibility comes.
- 27:22Speaker 2: All the way.
- 27:23Speaker 1: But but if you beat Auburn, Moje, that's a big
- 27:25Speaker 1: win because you beat Auburn because it's Auburn. Yeah, it's Auburn,
- 27:31Speaker 1: Charles Barkley, It's it's Auburn.
- 27:33Speaker 2: Oh guy, you beat Florida, Florida.
- 27:37Speaker 3: You beat Tim Tebow. Oh my god, you beat Florida.
- 27:41Speaker 2: Wow.
- 27:43Speaker 3: See and now you guys. I love it. I love
- 27:45Speaker 3: when people open their eyes.
- 27:47Speaker 2: Now you know why I was so mad, Like my
- 27:50Speaker 2: eyes have been open on them.
- 27:51Speaker 3: Okay the day it happened. What the I I lost
- 27:53Speaker 3: my skin here, I lost my senses. Now you know
- 27:56Speaker 3: why I was so angry. But a three Los Alabama
- 27:59Speaker 3: team is shut up.
- 28:01Speaker 1: But it's been like that forever, Like this is always
- 28:04Speaker 1: kind of how it's been and it's because of stuff
- 28:06Speaker 1: like this, And I'm.
- 28:07Speaker 2: Just people continue to eat this up. They do this
- 28:11Speaker 2: all the time.
- 28:12Speaker 3: By the way, Colorado State opens up week one, September
- 28:16Speaker 3: fifth against Wyoming. Saw that. Did you see the comments
- 28:18Speaker 3: that opens the season? See the comments of the Wyoming kid?
- 28:21Speaker 2: No, you did see that? Actually? Yeah, with the comments
- 28:26Speaker 2: we try to par.
- 28:27Speaker 4: You try to paraphrase. Maybe you remember it better than
- 28:29Speaker 4: I do. It was basically one of these, Well, we.
- 28:33Speaker 3: Get to start, we get to start the season against
- 28:37Speaker 3: our big rival, Da Da Da Da DA and it's
- 28:40Speaker 3: good to go down there and get it, get it,
- 28:41Speaker 3: you know, get it? Yeah, help me, you nailed that one.
- 28:47Speaker 3: That's why I didn't.
- 28:48Speaker 2: Say any of it.
- 28:48Speaker 4: Okay, well I thought it was interesting basically, go down there,
- 28:51Speaker 4: get the w to start the season and get it
- 28:54Speaker 4: over with something like that.
- 28:56Speaker 3: Am I paraphrasing? What am I? Am?
- 28:57Speaker 2: I close enough?
- 28:59Speaker 3: What did he say? Help me?
- 29:00Speaker 1: Trying to find I can't find him? But yes, there
- 29:05Speaker 1: was trash talk almost immediately with that.
- 29:07Speaker 3: Now you know C Sue starts a new conference this year.
- 29:15Speaker 3: Clearly they're in the PAC twelve. They're no longer sharing
- 29:18Speaker 3: a conference with Wyoming. Those days are gone. Can you
- 29:22Speaker 3: guys really quickly? I have it in front of me. So,
- 29:26Speaker 3: can you name the eight member schools of the PAC

- 29:56Speaker 3: Oregon State, San Diego State, Texas State, Utah State, and
- 30:02Speaker 3: Washington State. Wait, you tossed states in the PAC twelve.

- 30:09Speaker 3: the PAC twelve. So Notre Dame said, we're joining the
- 30:13Speaker 3: Back twelve. They said, no, it's got to be a

- 41:47Speaker 2: it was more my wife got got through me getting
- 41:49Speaker 2: got if that makes sense. That's when I moved here.
- 41:53Speaker 1: I hired this moving company because I was by myself, oh,
- 41:56Speaker 1: me and my wife. But it's like I needed I
- 41:59Speaker 1: hired these guys, like can you come and just help
- 42:01Speaker 1: me get the heavy stuff into this apartment that I'm
- 42:03Speaker 1: moving into until my wife moves in a few months.
- 42:06Speaker 2: So they get there and they do the whole thing.
- 42:08Speaker 2: Now this does happen. I get really weary of this now.
- 42:11Speaker 1: But they they don't have a thing to like scan
- 42:15Speaker 1: your card to pay for them.
- 42:18Speaker 2: They have just let me write down the number and
- 42:21Speaker 2: then we'll charge.
- 42:21Speaker 3: Yeah. No, no, no.
- 42:23Speaker 1: Then all of a sudden, I had a whole bunch
- 42:24Speaker 1: of Uber stuff being charged and gift cards, and they
- 42:29Speaker 1: got me.
- 42:29Speaker 2: They got me.
- 42:30Speaker 1: No, it wasn't I don't know how to. It wasn't
- 42:32Speaker 1: like it wasn't official business that they were in. But
- 42:36Speaker 1: it wasn't like two minute a trucker, you know what
- 42:38Speaker 1: I mean, moving companies.
- 42:40Speaker 4: It was just i'll pay you. It's i'll pay you
- 42:42Speaker 4: in cash. Yeah, that's sort of that's what you do
- 42:44Speaker 4: from now. You pay them in cash. How much will
- 42:47Speaker 4: it cost me fifty bucks an hour for each of you?
- 42:50Speaker 2: Okay, bam, give you a hundred bucks yep.
- 42:52Speaker 4: And you're gonna get a CE note and split it
- 42:54Speaker 4: between the two of yous and have some McDonald's whatever.
- 42:57Speaker 3: I would love to give that number out to the public.
- 42:59Speaker 3: Somebody asked give the number out. It's an unknown caller.
- 43:02Speaker 3: There is no number. I mean, as soon as I
- 43:04Speaker 3: denied it the first time, he called right back, and
- 43:06Speaker 3: that that's when I answered. I wish I had a
- 43:08Speaker 3: phone number, because I'd put it out there. My favorite
- 43:10Speaker 3: thing to do with these marketing scams is just to
- 43:12Speaker 3: take them for a ride. I like, sometimes I'll go
- 43:15Speaker 3: on and on for a long ride to the point
- 43:18Speaker 3: where they get just they give up. I didn't get
- 43:21Speaker 3: a chance to give that one a ride because you
- 43:23Speaker 3: get a sheriff's call, and that feels different. I would
- 43:26Speaker 3: like to know the human being on the other side
- 43:28Speaker 3: of that call. How pathetic is your life? How desperate
- 43:33Speaker 3: is your life?
- 43:34Speaker 2: True?
- 43:35Speaker 3: How pathetic and desperate are you that you know I'm
- 43:39Speaker 3: an old man, I guess, But imagine how many elderly
- 43:42Speaker 3: people or I don't know how many mosures out there
- 43:47Speaker 3: they're taking advantage of. Just imagine that I don't just
- 43:51Speaker 3: sit there and be old, go to Rocky Mountain, men's clinic.
- 43:56Speaker 3: Don't be old and get caught up any scams. Damn it.
- 43:59Speaker 1: You know what I feel like, we have found a
- 44:01Speaker 1: loophole in sports. If you want to get things done,
- 44:04Speaker 1: if you want to turn the tides in your favor,
- 44:05Speaker 1: if you feel like you've been wronged by the sport
- 44:07Speaker 1: that you're participating.
- 44:08Speaker 2: In, there is something you can do. I'll explain next
