• 1:00
  Thank you for joining us of this episode allegedly of episode seventy nine on
• 1:07
  this seventh day of April twenty twenty four, and Shawn's intro he's correct or
• 1:11
  not correct? Actually I just said now don't want to see him in his
• 1:15
  underwear, So thanks for joining us. We've got a lot, We've got
• 1:18
  a lot to cover. A busy, busy sports week. We had this
• 1:21
  week to recoup it's been what's that, Oh, okay, it's it's to
• 1:29
  recap a big, busy week of basketball, softball, baseball, busy sports
• 1:34
  week. It really has. So we're obviously today we're going to be previewing
• 1:38
  NFL. We're going to be previewing the NFC South Tampa, New Orleans,
• 1:42
  Atlanta, and Carolina. We're going to talk about some coaching changes in that
• 1:46
  division. We're also going to talk about good free big free agents that were
• 1:49
  picked up. Atlanta obviously was a big talk of one of the big talks
• 1:53
  of the NFL off season this year. And then we'll move and we'll give
• 1:57
  some predictions, look over the draft or possible draft scenarios of those four teams.
• 2:04
  We'll also talk we'll dive into some trades that happened in the NFL,
• 2:08
  some big moves. Also, we'll talk a little bit about some stadium votes
• 2:14
  that went down since we've talked last. We'll obviously going to preview tomorrow night's
• 2:20
  basketball game. Purdue and Yukon make the championship game after a very, to
• 2:27
  me, pretty Latin luster Final four. To be honest, the games they
• 2:32
  kind of went as most would have predicted. North Carolina State had a good
• 2:37
  showing against Purdue. I thought they hung in there pretty well, but in
• 2:39
  the end, I think Purdue is just a better team along with Yukon.
• 2:44
  And I thought if Alabama could score more and keep the pace up, which
• 2:47
  I think they kind of did for a minute, then you know that they
• 2:51
  couldn't hang So those games were close early, they started to get away,
• 2:54
  North Carolina State come back a little bit at the end, and then kind
• 2:58
  of ballooned up there. We'll also we'll talk a little bit of OU football,
• 3:04
  Oh You basketball, O s U basketball, and obviously oh You softball.
• 3:07
  After this weekend so but let's start. Uh, let's do a little
• 3:12
  ditty on the women's national championship game that was played at fucking two o'clock today.
• 3:19
  I don't know why or what time was it played. It was,
• 3:21
  it was, it was it was played at like two three. Uh,
• 3:24
  but I don't think that's what you want to talk about. You want to
• 3:28
  talk about you being correct and oh no, I wrote that down for everyone
• 3:30
  to remember. Is that is that end? Camera? Can we can we
• 3:34
  see that breaking news? Kenny did indeed pick the women's winner and the point
• 3:38
  total win. It's good. So I write sloppy, So my apology,
• 3:42
  my apologies, but we could start with that. I guess if you want.
• 3:46
  Yeah, it was a bet at the bar Hilltop Bar, sponsor of
• 3:52
  the sports list, and it was you and your son and he had taken
• 3:55
  Iowa. It was the second Uh, it's like you guys had a No.
• 4:00
  What we did is we did a we did during the men's We had
• 4:02
  a game we bet on and I won the first one, so he got
• 4:06
  to the call second game. Whatever game where in whatever sport. Yeah,
• 4:12
  it was basketball and it was I think it was the Illinois Iowa state game.
• 4:15
  Was the turnaround. No, that was the second one that was a
• 4:17
  turn guess. I can't remember what the first one was it. The first
• 4:20
  one was easy. I can't remember who it was, but it was like
• 4:23
  taking you know you guys. So anyway, so Iowa State loses it to
• 4:28
  Illinois in the tournament and he gets his hundred backs that we decided as a
• 4:31
  friendly bet for one hundred dollars on this game he took Caitlyn Clark and the
• 4:38
  storming Hawkeyes. Where I said from I didn't say from the beginning. Now
• 4:42
  I want to talk about South Carolina a little bit. Uh Don Staley's team
• 4:45
  thirty eight and oh in the season, Sean, could you pull up?
• 4:49
  I don't know how many teams have went undefeated. I remember some Connecticut teams
• 4:53
  I think run the table. But what's amazing just women's But what's most amazing
• 5:00
  about that is they sent five players last year the WNBA draft, and they
• 5:06
  turned around this year and they lost exactly. They lost in I think it
• 5:12
  was the final four, it was the it was a semi finals lost to
• 5:15
  them, a close game. Kaitlyn Clark I think had forty forty one points
• 5:18
  in that game last year. And then turn around this year comes out and
• 5:27
  I mean thirty eight, and I mean it's it's it's quite an accomplishment,
• 5:30
  especially for the youth that they have on that team too. I mean I
• 5:35
  don't foresee them. I mean, they're not gonna go away, obviously,
• 5:39
  but who's who's to say who's still going Who's to say that that that's that's
• 5:47
  But who's to say that they're not going to do that again? Maybe next
• 5:50
  year? I don't know, but I wanted to pull up eighty seven to
• 5:56
  seventy five. I did predict with had a bet with Zach that they would
• 6:00
  win, and I did text him today I said, I think it's gonna
• 6:01
  be about a twelve point win. It turned out to be Sean, thank
• 6:04
  you for looking up the undefeated teams. Nineteen eighty six was the very first
• 6:09
  one as far as record is far, and that was the Texas Long Horns
• 6:12
  thirty four. Done it. Gup. They have did it four times six
• 6:17
  times sorry, one, two, three, four, five, yeah,
• 6:18
  six times, ninety five, two thousand and two, nine, ten,
• 6:24
  h fourteen and sixteen. Now the sixteen was the last one with Yukon and
• 6:29
  then you've got Baylor in there. Twelve that was with Griner. And then
• 6:33
  you've got Tennessee in ninety eight, one of the highest, the best teams
• 6:38
  of Pat Summit, probably the best team she's ever had. And then obviously
• 6:42
  in twenty twenty four, remember the game that was too but you know,
• 6:45
  eighty six to twenty four, I mean, and the fact and the fact
• 6:47
  that Tennessee did it. Like in between, I think the Yukon ladies were
• 6:53
  We're going, we're trying to do back to back titles. Well, no,
• 6:57
  because that last time, No, no, those are just indefeat yeah
• 7:00
  oh oh yeah, yeah yeah, but that was that was when that was
• 7:01
  when someone was bringing up bringing up the balls and you know, for them
• 7:08
  to go undefeated. And then I think I think that they played the Yukon
• 7:13
  Oh really, I my, it's been a long time. I mean that
• 7:16
  was back in the nineties. So what's happened since the nineties? So back
• 7:20
  back to the ia Iowa South Carolina game. I you know, the year
• 7:24
  this is the thing the thing that I watched, and I watched this is
• 7:27
  this besides years that OU. I watched a lot of OU women's basketball when
• 7:30
  they had the Paris Twins, but this year has been and like for most
• 7:35
  people, I mean, it's probably one of the years that you can honestly
• 7:38
  sit there and say that you've watched probably the most women's college basketball you've have
• 7:43
  in years. If ever. Yeah, uh that the Iowa LSU game got
• 7:48
  got NFL Sunday Night numbers. Yes, yes, that was Well what was
• 7:51
  the last one? Did you get fourteen million? Remember the first Well?
• 7:55
  Yeah, the remember that first year? Yeah, that was the final Uh
• 7:59
  that was going. That was the Elite eight game, that was getting to
• 8:01
  the fire. That was l s U. The l s U game was
• 8:03
  the Elite eight and then the final four out did that one? Yes?
• 8:07
  Yes, because because Yukon, because those women weren't expected to even go that
• 8:11
  deep. No, no, they're they're young. And after that loss,
• 8:16
  actually they got the number one recruit the signed the very next day after that
• 8:20
  loss, real quick on Yukon though, Uh, final four next year,
• 8:24
  hands down, if they don't, I mean, Page Bucker's coming, Beckers
• 8:28
  is coming back, and you've got a big returning class there. Their young
• 8:31
  team. Obviously Geno's is starting to bring that team back to what they kind
• 8:35
  of went some years you know on the back burner that they haven't been talked
• 8:39
  about, and I think they're kind of they're kind of clicking. But I
• 8:43
  mean, you talk about basketball, you talk about l s U Angel Reese,
• 8:46
  you talk about Caitlyn Clark with Iowa, you talk about I call them
• 8:50
  the no that. I mean, they're not the no name squad, uh
• 8:54
  from from South Carolina. But I mean you've obviously you've got kids and cardos.
• 9:00
  So you remember they took out that LSU Johnson, they took out the
• 9:03
  defending national champion. I mean that Cardursa the Senior Center my word, I
• 9:09
  mean that she's an animal there for sure. Oh No, I was Tennessee
• 9:13
  was in the middle of Tennessee Lady Volunteers were in the middle of their three
• 9:16
  three peat run. Yes, yes, ninety. But they did knock on.
• 9:22
  They did come in with the Yukon like right after that. Well,
• 9:26
  and they lost in the championship to the year before they won it for those
• 9:31
  so but no, I mean, I but my concern previewing this game,
• 9:35
  I didn't think it was hard to pick South Carolina simply because I've I've watched
• 9:39
  enough of Iowa. They wasn't interior, they didn't have a strong presence in
• 9:43
  the interior. They had to bank on shooting on the outside, obviously,
• 9:48
  taking good shots and driving getting those people into foul trouble. South Carolina was
• 9:54
  just too big. I mean, they're too long or too big. It
• 9:56
  was everything about that that it was a bad matchup. Where the Connecticut game
• 10:01
  it was fun to watch. You know, the talk of the town is
• 10:05
  a bunch of freaking idiots on Twitter and all these people that think they have
• 10:11
  a voice, especially a lot of football type analysts I wonder who are football
• 10:20
  are making a bunch of comments about what they think a moving screen is.
• 10:24
  He's going to bring up on't you don't, don't don't talk about when it's
• 10:28
  settled. You know that that's a bad thing. It was a foul.
• 10:33
  It was a moving screen. It simply was. But the one the one
• 10:37
  argument was, and you know, we talked about it that uh, that
• 10:39
  it had been happening throughout the game, that those those certain moving fowls weren't
• 10:45
  cold. But it was the fact that she had extended so far out that
• 10:50
  they had to call it her her legs went whiter than her shoulders. But
• 10:52
  the other moving screens were not they were they were tighter, but this one
• 10:58
  she had. Actually she did not get set and she just went way too
• 11:01
  wide to try to person defending the player coming around her. And the ref
• 11:09
  is right there, and the ref was right there. It's a move,
• 11:11
  you know. They the refs generally for the most part in the tournament.
• 11:16
  Hell And, I think even in the basket men's basketball, you haven't heard
• 11:18
  a lot of griping. You really haven't. I think a lot of times
• 11:20
  they're letting them plan. If they're letting him play, that's great, but
• 11:24
  you can't see. You can't sit there and watch an obvious, obvious,
• 11:28
  uh moving screen and just sit there and go, oh, it's less than
• 11:31
  a minute. I can't blow my whistle. But what's the point in having
• 11:33
  the rules? Is it is if it's a foul in the first quarter,
• 11:37
  it's a foul in the fourth quarter. It should be that way. It
• 11:39
  always should be that way. We've bitched about this on this podcast simply as
• 11:43
  far as when you've got a guy tackling a receiver for hell, Mary,
• 11:46
  they don't call it. They should. That's past interference. If he's going
• 11:48
  up for the ball, they need to be having that call against him.
• 11:52
  But anyway, I had to bring up that because that was a big topic
• 11:56
  of discussion in sports. It almost became not a nauseating to open up your
• 12:01
  social media feeds and everyone had a comment. I was listening to radio and
• 12:07
  I'm like, gosh, that's all they just keep talking about. The play
• 12:11
  is called, and you know, Page had a perfect end of the deal.
• 12:16
  You know, she admitted she said, hey, that that was one
• 12:18
  play, but you know, you make other plays during that game. They
• 12:20
  don't have to worry about that being the last, you know, time they
• 12:24
  have the ball. So anyway back to the game, let's talk about South
• 12:26
  Carolina Iowa. You know, field goal percentage almost ten points different. Iowa
• 12:31
  had a thirty nine percent field goal percentage, where uh, you know you
• 12:35
  call I'm sorry, South Carolina was closer to forty eight percent. The one
• 12:41
  and the three pointers. You know, that would have been the cake for
• 12:45
  Iowa and they was going to have to lead in that and they shot twenty
• 12:48
  three of them versus nineteen for South Carolina and they made nine, So that
• 12:52
  was thirty nine percent. It's not a bad percentage, but you want to
• 12:56
  win this game. You want to be closer to fifty percent or taken more
• 13:00
  free throws sixteen and twenty. But the real thing, you look they were
• 13:05
  sitting, they were eighty percent, and then you look at South Carolina,
• 13:07
  they were they were a little over fifty percent free throw is shooting. And
• 13:11
  both tournaments have been interesting to watch because you we were talking about it last
• 13:15
  week. I think I circled one team that actually had a really bad free
• 13:18
  throw shooting versus opponent and they won. So that was that was kind of
• 13:22
  one of those deals that that you set there and you watch the free throw
• 13:28
  how important that was in this game. But you know, fifty they Tennessee.
• 13:33
  I'm sorry, I won't buy South Carolina is not rolling off my time
• 13:37
  women's has beens. But but total rebounds was the key because of the length
• 13:43
  and the and it was fifteen fifty one fifty one to twenty nine. So
• 13:50
  offensive rebounds for South Carolina was eighteen versus seven. That essentially means you've got
• 13:56
  eleven more possessions after a miss. And you go back and I told you
• 14:01
  look at your field goal percentage when it was almost forty eight thirty nine,
• 14:05
  and you're getting eleven. You're getting eleven more possessions years ago. It's correct.
• 14:11
  That's correct, LSU. It's been a it's been an SEC dominated for
• 14:16
  the last Wilsons. COVID yeah kind of dropah and Stanford was the other one.
• 14:22
  But when Yukon kind of dropped off a smidge, you know, and
• 14:24
  I say drop off, they were just made it to the final four,
• 14:26
  they wouldn't win it at all. They that became the SEC dominance. But
• 14:31
  that goes back to the rebounding. I thought that would be a concern.
• 14:35
  Steals, turnovers, fouls, they were all about equal. It was just
• 14:37
  those. The rebounding was key. And it was a team for the Lincoln.
• 14:41
  That's why I thought it was an easy, uh pick to make.
• 14:43
  And I could have made a bunch of money if our governor would bring gambling
• 14:46
  to Oklahoma. But didn't you hear that? Come on, let's go.
• 14:50
  Can you keep your stupid brother he needs to pay that. I don't care.
• 14:54
  Let's do this. You can't you can't knock the Indians and then Natives
• 14:58
  and then turn around and be like, oh, well you can't make me
• 15:01
  pay that speeding ticket because I'm Native. I saw that idiot. Stits are
• 15:09
  stupid. I'll take on any stit right now. Come on, bring on,
• 15:13
  yeah, bring on the game, come out the hill top that we
• 15:16
  will throw down that not that it's a rowdy great but because we need so.
• 15:20
  Anyway, congratulations to uh South Carolina on your two out of three.
• 15:24
  I think they they won. They've lost three games in uh three years.
• 15:28
  I think what is it? Three at nine? Was it one hundred and
• 15:33
  nine or one hundred and three? It was some after go look season to
• 15:37
  season. Yeah, so this last season and then the season four the only
• 15:41
  yeah, no, three seasons. I think the four game Yeah, three
• 15:46
  or four games I think is all. They were like a hundred and uh
• 15:50
  one hundred and three or one hundred and nine. But anyway, thirty eight
• 15:54
  wins this year. All right, Okay, so let's we talked about we
• 16:00
  kind of got out off a gambling kick because I brought that up because I
• 16:02
  usually do. Yeah, you're not, well, no, it's just it's
• 16:04
  needed. I mean, it's just needed. The state is just waste,
• 16:08
  just spending money. But anyway, and when it happens, I'll be your
• 16:12
  book. So I wanted to bring up a little bit and this was obviously
• 16:18
  news this week, and it has to do with politics. Coach to politics,
• 16:25
  Well, what's kind of politics because it's sports related. Are you talking
• 16:27
  about this college football show? Now? I was talking about the chiefs Oh
• 16:30
  the stadium text? Yeah yeah, Now what what what was that? Because
• 16:36
  there was a church involved or something? Uh who a church or something that
• 16:41
  was involved with that too? Oh shoot, I don't know about that.
• 16:44
  I mean, I'm sure that there was some church. I just could have
• 16:47
  swore that I saw something that the church was some church was involved. It
• 16:51
  might have just been a land deal. Oh, I could have been.
• 16:53
  They could have just went out because it's negative for sports. Well, the
• 16:56
  Royals, it's something it might have to do with the Royal stadium, all
• 17:00
  right. Jackson County voters on Tuesday shot down us on seventy eight thousand people
• 17:08
  voted against the tax, while fifty six thousand voted for it. The sales
• 17:11
  tax right now is currently through twenty thirty one. This was an extension later,
• 17:17
  and they were asking the people of Jackson County to extend the tax to
• 17:19
  sixty four Now, right off the bat, that seems long. It seems
• 17:22
  like a long extension. That's thirty three years yea. And so, but
• 17:27
  what what it was? And I've tried to find the interesting thing I had
• 17:33
  that pulled up and I have not. Maybe it was a small tax that
• 17:36
  already existed. Now the rumors there are rumors now that you're looking at the
• 17:41
  possibility of the Chiefs and the world's relocating because of losing this. Did they
• 17:45
  really go undefeated last season? Two? No, they didn't win it last
• 17:48
  year. No, they wentn't un defeated in a regular season. Oh,
• 17:52
  that's quite possible. It was sixteen and oh it was seventeen and oh yeah,
• 17:56
  I think that's when I lost three games in three years or some crazy
• 17:59
  stat like that. Coffin Sadium currently for the Roles is the sixth oldest in
• 18:03
  MLB. Was built in nineteen seventy three. Obviously, they're wanting to look
• 18:08
  at building that billion Chiefs. The Chiefs had unveiled an eight Yeah, they
• 18:15
  unveiled two losses over there to see that overall, So they unveiled a eight
• 18:21
  hundred dollars million or eight hundred million. That's eight hundred million dollars dollars million,
• 18:30
  but but eight eight hundred million dollars set it again find finished from America.
• 18:36
  They want to do concourse update. Obviously, the bathroom is tailgating to
• 18:40
  do that obviously trusts from nineteen twenty six. You can't get people in and
• 18:48
  out faster. That is now they would have signed the lead twenty five year
• 18:52
  least with arrowhead of the extension would approve, but that seems now off the
• 18:56
  table Women's methods and so so Kansas City Mayor quin He did make it clear
• 19:03
  that he is going to do whatever possible it is to keep the Chiefs,
• 19:08
  even though that they're going to look Lisa from Erawhead runs to twenty thirty one.
• 19:15
  So that's less than seven years, and that's huge because what are we
• 19:18
  looking at state? I mean, we just approved well we know Oklahoma voters
• 19:22
  in Oklahoma City approved a new stadium. Kenny just approved, No, they
• 19:26
  proved a new stadium. Did you do this? So they approved a new
• 19:30
  stadium for the Thunder and that's not going to be completed till twenty eight twenty
• 19:33
  nine. Yeah, totally new twenty eight twenty nine. So that's that's for
• 19:38
  an arena. So you're looking at that's going to take roughly five years.
• 19:44
  Talk about a stadium only need like twenty thousand seats. Nobody wants to watch
• 19:47
  it exactly, Well, no, they love it, but when they're on
• 19:49
  a downward turn already we get in the bathroom in trees. When we get
• 19:53
  through more negative nancies in the thunders are falling down slots. But anyway,
• 20:00
  anyway, I thought it was I thought it was important because I wanted to
• 20:02
  say, I've never been a fucking fan of the songs, but I wanted
• 20:04
  I wanted to bring up I wanted to bring up something though that that was
• 20:07
  important to talk about that because we were talking about gambling. So Kansas,
• 20:12
  the state of Kansas, Kansas, yes, and they have done that.
• 20:15
  But so they did a revenue I think first was like they need to make
• 20:18
  an additional initial deposit to some fund of probably anti gambling fund, and then
• 20:25
  a certain percentage goes into that eighteen percent it's like thirteen or eighteen percent going
• 20:33
  to the general state general revenue fund. Here's the kicker of what they've done
• 20:37
  in Kansas that it's probably didn't even really get mentioned too heavily until well,
• 20:42
  especially if you're not in Kansas, because we didn't vote on it. But
• 20:45
  they set aside of the revenue for gambling and they do apps and everything.
• 20:49
  So the revenue is ridiculous because even in Kansas and Oklahoma. You got to
• 20:53
  cross the straight No but straight, I mean just you're thinking about how smart
• 20:57
  this is. Eighty percent of the proceeds for UH sports betting in Kansas is
• 21:03
  allocated to retaining and attracting Major League sports teams in Kansas and Kansas which Kansas
• 21:15
  City, it's all Kansas City. You've got you've got East Kansas or West
• 21:21
  Kansas City, and then you've got Wichita, and Wichita you can get murdered
• 21:26
  in. So I guess it's no different than Detroit. That's the key though,
• 21:30
  small town market down slap a label the Chiefs. If they lose,
• 21:33
  they're going to be on the other side of the state line in this And
• 21:37
  you watched you watch Kansas. Yeah, there's gonna build new ones. And
• 21:41
  you watch Kansas because there's a lot of land over there, and you think
• 21:45
  about the the revenue that that state would then become and what Kansas City,
• 21:49
  Missouri is losing. Now you're talking about money, you're looking at the state.
• 21:55
  You're looking at the two teams. Now, if that happens, that
• 21:59
  would be leaving the state of Missouri for other states. Rams go to the
• 22:03
  UH to l A and now then you would potentially came from LA to say
• 22:07
  no, but I mean, but that was a huge loss. And and
• 22:10
  then now you turn around and you look at them, because St. Louis
• 22:11
  looking up the battle, you look at Kansas City, Missouri town losing out
• 22:18
  to Kansas City, Kansas. They wouldn't have to change their name and it
• 22:22
  they'd still be everything. Yeah, I got it. I completely understood.
• 22:26
  Because there's a lot of landover There's a lot of open land right across the
• 22:30
  river. Is that what it is that separates Not only it's the river,
• 22:32
  I think it's just the border. We crossed it going to the game.
• 22:36
  You know it was right there. Well, and also I think I am
• 22:41
  well, I know, I know. Memphis is that way you go East
• 22:44
  Memphis and West Memphis, and across West Memphis, it's just a bridge.
• 22:48
  Kansas City is in the same predicament predicament well and more. Probably what they
• 22:57
  would do is try to find area across this by the speedway to build a
• 23:00
  new stadiums spitting So that would be probably what because you know the Kansas City
• 23:07
  Speedway in Kansas is in Kansas. Chelsea has a lot of land. We
• 23:11
  could put sports, come on down there. We go, all right,
• 23:15
  I thought I wanted to bring that up. You segued into the gambling and
• 23:18
  back to that. But I thought, man, it's just it's an odd
• 23:22
  time because you look, it's somewhat of a river. There is a river
• 23:26
  that that is kind of there you see. No, look look where the
• 23:32
  donded line goes up. Oh okay, because I can kind of see that
• 23:36
  runs it runs. That's the border, the duded line. There is the
• 23:38
  border. Yeah, so there is somewhat of a border. Mhm, because
• 23:44
  the city's run so much so anyways, but that's how they did it up
• 23:48
  at the top, because that's that's what I'm saying. No river from Oklahoma
• 23:52
  Kansas line by they we're all straight. Well, I mean no, I
• 23:56
  just know I no. I mean I looked at I looked at the vote,
• 24:00
  and I'm you know, we're not a part of it. But it
• 24:02
  was a resounding huge vote against that tax. The same thing is, you
• 24:07
  know, are people getting to home at Texas and Kansas all share the turnpikes
• 24:12
  like that authority, So why can't we can get Do you think it's becoming
• 24:18
  though? Now? Because you know, Hunt didn't throw up a lot of
• 24:21
  his own money for this. They wanted it mostly funded. Do you think
• 24:25
  people are just right now? You talk about cost of goods and things and
• 24:29
  living and everything, they're all just kind of setting back, going, wait
• 24:33
  a freaking minute, why am I paying billionaire? Right now? It is
• 24:36
  kind of a kind of a hard time to to get allocaate or pass taxes
• 24:41
  or something unless you're playing is good right, But it's you know, because
• 24:45
  your your your goods and services are costing so much. Well what California alone,
• 24:52
  they're fu their minimum for fast food is twenty dollars now football, though,
• 24:56
  would you think, what would you pay a concession? You end up
• 24:59
  having to pay the concession work for twenty an hour? You think about but
• 25:02
  yeah, and you think, but you think about the I don't know the
• 25:04
  tax in or the expense end of it. Everything is going And you think
• 25:08
  about how many of those one hundred thousand voters that went to the polls was
• 25:15
  about one hundred I had those numbers. It's not just a city without a
• 25:18
  state tax. It's a county county fifty eight to forty nine forty It is
• 25:23
  like, let's say it's just fifty eight forty two percent. So they're looking
• 25:27
  at people. You're looking at people outside. There's about one hundred and thirty
• 25:30
  thousand people who don't even use it. That's what I was getting ready to
• 25:33
  say. They don't go to sports events, and maybe they can't afford it.
• 25:37
  Maybe they're like, you know, we're that's all farm country. We're
• 25:40
  paying We're paying out in the bottom of it, that's all farm We're paying
• 25:44
  billionaires to continue to make their teams worth more by publicly funding product. I
• 25:49
  mean, it was a talk in Oklahoma City too. You know, they
• 25:52
  were worried about that vote, and it passed res on only because I think
• 25:56
  the people there the tax is so small and they know how important to thunder
• 26:00
  is to Olahoma City. It's kind of made them a big lead city.
• 26:02
  Even though the Okahma City's population, I think we looked at it the other
• 26:04
  day, isn't it in the top twenty or thirty in the United States?
• 26:07
  There's still low. Yeah, so no high for being Oklahoma City if you
• 26:11
  think about it, But I mean, you know, there's still low.
• 26:14
  They're very spread out too, But I mean, and they've done improvements,
• 26:18
  just like tuls I mean, they're becoming it's still it's not a Saint Louis.
• 26:21
  It's not, yes, exactly. And another thing is, but you
• 26:25
  talk about those tendo, it's not you talk about the that that goes back
• 26:30
  to Birmingham still bigger than that goes back to that really just goes back to
• 26:33
  people are just fed up right now and it's a tough time to do the
• 26:37
  taxes. I thought the extension maybe was a little long. You're extending out
• 26:41
  to the sixties. We're just hit twenty four. You know, that's almost
• 26:45
  forty years out to extend a tax when you know, you know, in
• 26:49
  some of these owners, I mean, they need to take watch and start
• 26:52
  paying for some of their own shit. Nope, that's how they made their
• 26:56
  That's how they made their billions. That's true. I mean, like you
• 27:00
  you exactly anything. If you're if you're and you made me do work for
• 27:03
  free. So if you're, if you're doing that, you might as well
• 27:06
  just keep doing it, right, all right? Well that's all I have.
• 27:07
  But interesting, I thought that for the for the for the random massing.
• 27:11
  Yes, let's talk a little bit more about NFL before we move on
• 27:15
  to uh film. Yeah, well, I guess we could talk about NFL
• 27:18
  notes while we get in we get basketball. Yes, I know the Oka
• 27:23
  se Fender. Oh boy, well we haven't even talked about the men.
• 27:27
  We haven't talked about men's and c double A the funnel. We can talk
• 27:32
  about that. You just went from ladies to gambling. Well you pulled up.
• 27:36
  Oh that's just that's just's you don't see that every men's there's a there's
• 27:45
  a pattern for mere Uh no, so uh we we ended up with the
• 27:52
  Yukon and Purdue, which uh kind of surprising for Purdue, not really surprising
• 27:57
  for Yukon. Now you say that you will say that one Yukon knocked out?
• 28:02
  I did you say that surprising? I think it's only surprising in that
• 28:06
  they have failed so many times early in the tournaments and this year and they
• 28:10
  are better. This is their best team that they've wanted to I just want
• 28:12
  to weird faced, mullet headed ass anddue to lose. He's had a hell
• 28:18
  of a year and I'm not I'll be rooting for Purdue tomorrow. What was
• 28:22
  the spread on that? Have you seen it? Spread? Looked said spread?
• 28:26
  Because it just happened. And instead of doing the podcast yesterday like we
• 28:30
  were going to, So I was taken out to live music. Going back
• 28:37
  to Yukon, you didn't think, you know, the Alabama deal, Like
• 28:40
  we talked about the beginning. I just thought they were gonna have to shoot
• 28:42
  lights out to keep up with them. I mean, yeah, that's what
• 28:45
  we said. Yukon is continuously They've continued to beat everybody. Take produce,
• 28:52
  take Purdue on this. I'm just definitely Purdue Yukon will not cover be my
• 28:57
  prediction. What was the over end of forty one hundred and forty for that
• 29:00
  game? Why didn't I think that's what it said? Gosh, that's what's
• 29:03
  that? Sixty or seventy seventy? It's a little hot. Yeah, it's
• 29:11
  about seventy betting tips from sports allegedly taking under Watch BB wrong as tale because
• 29:21
  basketball is a crapshoot. I would never even bet on it. I knew
• 29:22
  the women's going to be easy, but I don't even know. I don't
• 29:26
  even know it's basketball because it's like, okay, are the ref's gonna get
• 29:30
  involved? Or because they're cheating asses. So yeah, Purdue Yukon. I
• 29:34
  think Purdue. What was it? I think Purdue? What game was it?
• 29:38
  Was it? The NC State? Where or Alabama? Was shot twenty
• 29:41
  percent in the second final four, the first final four since nineteen eighty for
• 29:48
  Matt Painter has been a coach for nineteen years, he's had one McDonald's.
• 29:53
  That's that, No, that's the first. That's the first since they've been
• 29:56
  to the final four. Purdue last visit was nineteen eighty. Matt Painter's been
• 30:02
  coached there for nineteen years and he's had won McDonald's All Amerian American, Amrian
• 30:07
  American. I think so you got obviously got Zach Edy, obviously a polished
• 30:12
  player. Not when they brought him in was not near as good as he
• 30:15
  has been now polish polished, He was polished, and you know, and
• 30:21
  and you know, you turn around and Burns had a hell of a game
• 30:23
  except you know, his shooting, you know, or hell of it,
• 30:26
  I'm sorry, not hell of a game, hell of a tournament. And
• 30:30
  he just didn't perform. He didn't perform in this game, sixty three fifty.
• 30:34
  It was a thirteen point win, low scoring early, you know about
• 30:40
  the first half. I think it was the NC State that they shot.
• 30:45
  Yeah after the half, yeah, because I mean total sit and we watched
• 30:48
  and I watched the I watched the game, and they just the second half
• 30:52
  could not get easy layups to full well well every yeah, everything just and
• 31:00
  you have that it was against yeah, but these are open shots that they
• 31:03
  you know, you get a fast break, you get down, you get
• 31:07
  the you get the layup. But it just it would not fall. It
• 31:10
  would bounce around the rim, it would bounce out, it would go off,
• 31:14
  and it wasn't. It wasn't the defense of Purdue that was causing it
• 31:18
  to happen. It would just not go. I mean, the guy was
• 31:21
  there, but they were they were trying to push too fast, force everything,
• 31:26
  and that really that really ended up hurting them in the second hand.
• 31:29
  Thirty six percent shooting twenty six percent for three. But I mean you look
• 31:33
  at Burns his numbers, he only had eight points. You know, he
• 31:34
  played twenty seven minutes. He shot four to ten DJ Horn, I mean
• 31:38
  he had he wasn't. Burns was in foul cho that's why, uh,
• 31:41
  that's why Middlebrooks was in. He led the scoring, obviously, but he
• 31:45
  was eight to twenty one for shooting and then two of eight two of eight
• 31:48
  on three. So you look at those possessions, you make three of those,
• 31:52
  that's nine points you know, you're you know that, and like so
• 31:56
  we said the field goals were just that they just were not wood produce shoot.
• 32:00
  Bringing that back down to them. Yeah, see, they didn't do
• 32:05
  that great either, to be honest, I mean shooting, but that's what
• 32:07
  I mean that the wolf Pack ended up beating themselves by not getting the balls
• 32:12
  to drop and most of those misses. You look, it was it was
• 32:15
  a heavy it was a heavy defense. It was a fun game to watch.
• 32:17
  But Zach eighty had twenty points nine to fourteen shooting, so he wasn't
• 32:22
  the one that was setting there, you know, but you look at you
• 32:24
  know, you look at Smith and Jones, their guards, I mean one
• 32:27
  of nine, five and twelve. I mean, they were the ones that
• 32:29
  weren't shooting the wheel ball. And and the second half was even Jones and
• 32:35
  even the second half was lower scoring than the first. When you watched that
• 32:37
  first half, it just seemed like it was very slow. Right moving on
• 32:40
  to the Alabama Yukon game. You know the stats there, if you look
• 32:44
  at stats, shoot, we knew was gonna have to shoot eighty six seventy
• 32:47
  two, but you know, it wasn't really that bad. I mean,
• 32:50
  field goal percentage was forty eight to fifty. That's true. That's impressio.
• 32:54
  You gotta beat you, to beat you Kon, you've got to have them
• 32:58
  generally screw up. You know, it's gotta be not necessarily what you can
• 33:01
  do, but they are also going to have to be, you know a
• 33:05
  little bit, whether it's an off night shooting, not doing rebound, just
• 33:08
  really not in it. Yukon is so balanced, it's amazing. And they
• 33:14
  and I told you their first three games they held the teams under sixty yes,
• 33:16
  yes, and that was against San Diego State team that they played last
• 33:21
  fourteen four. Okay, so it was the four. Yeah, the first
• 33:23
  four were held under sixty points. Yes, that is correct, and that
• 33:27
  was that was very impressive going in. And then you've got this hot shooting
• 33:30
  Alabama team the top seventy. And it was Alabama's first time to the Final
• 33:34
  four eleven, but it was their very first final four. Forty four percent
• 33:37
  shooting for Alabama, forty seven on threes, they hit eleven to twenty three,
• 33:42
  eighty percent free throws. The thing, it's just the balance. I
• 33:46
  mean, everything about Yukon is balanced. You got clinging having off gay a
• 33:52
  game. It doesn't matter. You give it to Spencer, you give it
• 33:54
  to Newton. They all shoot well, I think as I think that now
• 33:59
  it happens. But look at look at the you know the starters fourteen,
• 34:04
  eighteen, twenty one, twelve, twenty four, all starters average double digits.
• 34:07
  And you know their shooting wasn't horribly bad. Newton was four to eleven
• 34:10
  and Spencer was five eleven, So you they had some opportunities there because they
• 34:15
  were missing. But you know, rebounds thirty eight to thirty one for Yukon
• 34:19
  defensive and offensive. Yukon led that, but very little. It was if
• 34:23
  you look at the stats, you would have thought it was. It wasn't
• 34:25
  a fourteen. I went to Pringle and it took two shots. They only
• 34:29
  played sixteen minutes. Did he get into foul trouble early? I don't know.
• 34:34
  You know, that was the one game I didn't watch. Oh did
• 34:37
  did? Did? Was it? Keats? Is that the coach for North
• 34:39
  Carolina State? Yeah? And I gonna know for for element Oats Oats?
• 34:45
  Yes, Oats Oats seemed to have played, uh rutshell? Was the kids
• 34:52
  move? It's not Lyon? Gosh what is his name? Click on it?
• 34:55
  Right Shell junior Latroll Latroll. Yes, he ended up playing thirty one
• 35:00
  minutes, so he got pringles minutes. So that means he was playing a
• 35:05
  four guard. He was playing four guards at most. And I know that
• 35:09
  a lot of these guards are transitional guards. They're correct. They're a hybrid
• 35:15
  of a forward and guard. It's not generally what you would think of old
• 35:17
  school like that. But hey, but you know, Alabama historic run for
• 35:22
  them. They you know, like I said, they were better last year.
• 35:27
  They were better last year. They had gosh, you just had that
• 35:31
  game pulled out the murderer ancessory allegedly it was allegedly an accessory, or could
• 35:43
  consider it. He's placed for the Hornets, the team that the Thunderbelt beat
• 35:45
  today. So anyway, real quick to wrap it up. Your predictions far
• 35:49
  you like Yukon, Yeah, which give me a score? Oh god,
• 35:55
  it's gonna be low. I think Yukon gets gets to seven, and I'm
• 36:01
  gonna put I'm gonna put Purdue at probably sixty two sixty. Just give me
• 36:10
  sixty one, seventy to sixty one. I'm close, would you do?
• 36:17
  I've got sixty eight sixty nine Perdue wins by one miss missshot at the end
• 36:23
  of the game for Connecticut and Purdue wins. There is that. Have they
• 36:29
  won a national championship before? Yeah? One in you know they went they
• 36:35
  went to the final four and eighty. That's the last one. I don't
• 36:37
  think they wonted that year, did they. I don't know if they've ever
• 36:42
  won that. But I think it's gonna be an exciting game tomorrow night.
• 36:45
  I think it's pretty evenly matched. You've got You've got a lot, You've
• 36:50
  got length on yukon scoring, then you've got the big guy in the middle.
• 36:54
  I think it's gonna be all this is going to depend on is no
• 36:59
  team has foul trouble early and what does the guards? You will get you
• 37:04
  in the foul trouble. What will the guards do for Purdue? That's kind
• 37:08
  of what I want to watch. How can they shoot? How can they
• 37:10
  move the ball to the center. Are they going to be able to get
• 37:16
  it into Edie, which yeah, I think they're I think they're going to
• 37:21
  to want to want to do that obviously, But I don't say it's it's
• 37:25
  gonna be fun. I really like this matchup simply because years Yes, yes,
• 37:34
  so we're looking up to see if produce everyone. I don't think they
• 37:37
  have go back to eighty sean right here, Yeah, so that's the last
• 37:42
  time they win. So no, I don't think produce everyone. That's the
• 37:45
  last time they've been to the final four is nineteen eighty. Oh, I
• 37:49
  don't know that Larry Brown was the coach u Ciel at one time. I
• 37:54
  didn't realize that. It's unfortunate eighty eight year. I'm really just that they
• 38:06
  have. I think they have all right, Moving on, I did well
• 38:12
  as far as basketball, Well, we didn't talk about Kaitlyn Clark and whether
• 38:15
  she's submitted herself. She will as generational because she did not win a title.
• 38:23
  That's that's what the love of the argument is is is her needing to
• 38:27
  win a title? Will Well look at what's his nuts from Georgetown Center for
• 38:34
  the Pistons or not Pistons, but Patrick Patrick Ewing great ballplayer Barkley, bark
• 38:39
  yea Barkley. But they did Barclay finally win a title? Never did neither
• 38:45
  did you. I think Barkley got close and Jordan was the one that shut
• 38:49
  him down when when he went to Phoenix or Houston Phoenix for that was that
• 38:54
  Dan the man that those years that would have been ninety don't quote me on
• 38:59
  the year. Yeah, like I said, Vincent, the nineties, the
• 39:01
  mid nineties, mid nineties, we're we're we have a lot of trouble.
• 39:05
  What was the years the Bulls took off and the Houston won the two in
• 39:07
  a row? Not the Bulls, the Bulls Jordan Jordan took off. That
• 39:10
  was not like ninety five or something like that. Yeah, yeah, I'm
• 39:15
  just guessing. I don't But anyway, Phoenix went at hey, Phoenix went
• 39:21
  ay that, Phoenix went went after that. So okay, other basketball news
• 39:25
  real quick, we'll touch on so we don't have to bring it back.
• 39:29
  Oh you want to do weird coaching news. There's been some Oh we've been
• 39:32
  talking about oaklanda state finally that Yes, yes, did you ever see his
• 39:38
  contract? Has that come out? Nope? No? And all I saw
• 39:44
  was it was, uh, oh god, how did they put it?
• 39:51
  It was the contract issue was it was not what everybody made it out to
• 39:58
  be. Oh course, well that's what he said after he was he was
• 40:02
  hired, So I don't, I don't know for sure. And getting into
• 40:07
  the news agencies, now they put everything behind a paywall, and I'm not
• 40:13
  going to do my taxes and say, oh yeah, I have the subscription
• 40:16
  for paywall. I do know that according to the Lexington Journal that they did
• 40:27
  somebody had to pay the buy out at Western Kentucky, which was two million
• 40:30
  dollars. Now they said that that could be stretched over twelve months and have
• 40:35
  to pay it all in one month. Son, Now, oh know that
• 40:43
  was the old one seat man. I can't that should not be a secret.
• 40:46
  Here's here's what happened, Jimmy, there we go. Okay, sorry,
• 40:51
  two point four million in his first year in Stillwater. It's a five
• 40:53
  year deal. His first year salary will rank twelve or thirteenth in the future
• 40:58
  Big twelve, which is you know, so they were runners up Perdue's runners
• 41:04
  up in sixty nine. They reached the final four in sixty nine, eighty
• 41:07
  twenty four this year. So well, I'm trying to figure it out.
• 41:15
  But but yeah, I I don't know why they kept going for LUTs.
• 41:19
  I don't know what this guy's done. Oh he wasn't their first? Is
• 41:24
  that you think that's what pisty move. No, I think it's what they
• 41:28
  just had to go do. We just need more bald white guys in basketball.
• 41:31
  Now. You know you look at his you know he was a he
• 41:35
  was a Matt Painter assistant for years. I'm just glad that Musselman is no
• 41:37
  longer in Arkansas. Okay, so I have him on the list too,
• 41:39
  But but no, we can let him and Lincoln Riley have their cool.
• 41:45
  Like, so Muscleman's going to be the guy with his shirt off out there
• 41:47
  and Lincoln Riley's going to be the dude pointing at him going, yeah,
• 41:50
  motherfucker, come mess with me. Okay, So that's kind of what to
• 41:52
  talk about, is fat. But anyway, two point four million his first
• 41:55
  year in still Water, it doesn't really give me his Like I said,
• 42:00
  I couldn't. I couldn't find it. I couldn't find much. So uh
• 42:05
  but I know that Bronnie James is is keeping his rights and trying to go
• 42:09
  to the NBA. He wants to enter the draft. Bernnie James, Bernie
• 42:16
  James dio so so funny about the coaching. Was gonna talk about basketball coaching.
• 42:23
  I'll keep it brief because a lot of people I really dig the coaching
• 42:25
  moves because I think coaching and basketball's coaching, college college moves. Yeah.
• 42:30
  Yeah, in college basketball, it's huge. It's a huge dynamic, especially
• 42:34
  now with Neil and recruiting and everything. But so Rob Lanier gets fired from
• 42:38
  the SMU this year and he doesn't have a losing reund and it was kind
• 42:43
  of a surprise. So then all of a sudden it was Andy Enfield,
• 42:47
  who Florida Gulf Coast history ten years ago. Somebody had a little inside and
• 42:52
  said, hey, let's get in Field over here. Yeah, he's not
• 42:55
  having a good he wasn't enough to get fired, and he was, but
• 42:59
  he's been on the hill. He's not he's not having a fun time at
• 43:02
  USC. He's got some friends here. I'm sorry. His wife's from Oklahoma.
• 43:07
  I'm sorry there were some rumors about him at Oklahoma Stadium because his wife,
• 43:13
  I believe it's from Oklahoma. So you get round back to Texas,
• 43:17
  you take the SMU job, obviously that's open. Then you get muscling in
• 43:21
  Arkansas. Who's got he's from California in that area. He was a Sacramento
• 43:27
  King's head coach when he was like in his thirties. I mean, that's
• 43:30
  how all this guy's been around. Obviously taught or not taught coached at Vegas,
• 43:35
  brought that program at the University of Nevada. But that's fine. They
• 43:38
  can deal with him out there. They can. They can have that guy.
• 43:40
  I liked him, I thought he was I didn't. I hated his
• 43:44
  case. I wanted to fight him. Now, you just didn't like him.
• 43:47
  You liked taking the shirts off, and you didn't get into that hole
• 43:52
  when he was jumping up. I look, you've got you've got great coaches
• 43:54
  like Bobby and who got pissed off. But he got pissed off at the
• 43:57
  floor, he got pissed off. What was happening. You didn't have a
• 44:00
  guy going after the fans. You didn't have a guy going after other players.
• 44:05
  You didn't have a you know, if it's fine going after the refs,
• 44:07
  do all that all you want. But Musselman just he he was trying
• 44:12
  to fight everybody. I think he would have fought his own players if they
• 44:15
  would have came out him. I'm just so saying the guy. I don't
• 44:21
  wonder if that maybe more on them a little bit. Great recruiter, and
• 44:25
  I can tell you that Arkansas and Arkansas basketball, because they've had some great
• 44:30
  coaches there. They don't look at they look at Muscle and they're like,
• 44:32
  fuck, we screwed up again. Got an angry little white guy getting of
• 44:38
  so Enfield left. Obviously, Musselman takes the job at USC which fits him
• 44:42
  perfect out there. And and then so now Arkansas is sitting there and they've
• 44:45
  interviewed. You know, Chris Beard was a candidate in the Mississippi coach former
• 44:49
  Texas coach. Remember he got in trouble for me allegedly hitting his girlfriend and
• 44:52
  she said he didn't bullshit, but whatever, and uh, and then you've
• 44:57
  got you can't under your breath, didn't you? Jerome drum Tang for drum
• 45:02
  drum Tang for Kansas State, who's a hell of a coach. I think
• 45:07
  lead eight last year for Kansas State. They had an off year this year.
• 45:10
  They were the leading candidates. But then they said, eh, I'm
• 45:15
  taking my name out of consideration. So you always get two versions of that
• 45:20
  when you take your name out of consideration. You either one didn't have his
• 45:24
  chance of getting it, or two something was goofy and you just didn't like
• 45:29
  it. Something you know, does the b enemy coaching you see l the
• 45:34
  offensive coordinator something yeah, oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
• 45:37
  something's crazy, just like you're just looking around, You're like, what
• 45:39
  has this man done? Yeah, exactly Why is he not a head coach
• 45:43
  yet? Yeah? Oh, you're right now he's back in college. Maybe
• 45:45
  he just doesn't you know what, Maybe maybe we're missing something about the b
• 45:50
  enemy that he probably just went in taking the interviews that I don't want this
• 45:53
  job because he didn't. He doesn't want the stress of being a head coach.
• 45:58
  I don't know, why would you interview you don't want the job.
• 46:00
  Well, for one, because he's black and they have to interview a black
• 46:02
  guy. Okay, now I'm not talking about his I'm talking you're talking about
• 46:06
  from the owner's perspective, not his perspective. Okay, Okay, I could
• 46:10
  see that. No, I can because I think that the running rulls bullshit.
• 46:15
  But and I think that brings in people. And I think that Andy
• 46:19
  Reid was like, dude, just just go interview, just just be back
• 46:22
  here, get ready for the toll And Fort. And it's not right.
• 46:24
  But unfortunately, do I think you're right about that. We talked about that
• 46:27
  the owners probably do that they they have a person already in their head.
• 46:31
  And I'm not saying they're wide or black then or any an. This is
• 46:36
  where we this is where we ended up. Said, they turn around and
• 46:37
  go, well, I have to interview a black guy. This wen up
• 46:44
  skategoating with Wilkes. He got he got scapegoated, Uh Wilkes twice twice?
• 46:52
  Yeah, he got? Who got? Who was the who was the coach
• 46:55
  in Miami before before Josh? Yeah, he's defensive coordinator for the Vikings and
• 47:02
  he wanted to sue the league. And what is his name? His face
• 47:07
  Brian something Flores. Yeah, yes, yes, look at you go,
• 47:12
  because I thought it was I'm sitting there going you know, they did it
• 47:15
  to Lovey. They Lovey did it they did to love and Houston be like,
• 47:17
  you're just a placeholder. Yeah that was a weird hire. Yeah.
• 47:22
  I mean but I think but I think love he knew it. I think
• 47:23
  they told Yeah, but He's like, give me a three or four year
• 47:25
  contract, you pay my ass and I'll be dead because he was you know,
• 47:30
  he's at the end of his career. So I mean a lot of
• 47:31
  people are he should have came back as a decoordinator because he was great.
• 47:35
  Yeah, he was. That's why That's why I was Houp Chicago would have
• 47:37
  hired Riviera or Uh as a coordinator. Yeah, it's a decordinator. Who
• 47:44
  was the other that was going to call the place again or call the defense
• 47:45
  again? This I don't know. It seemed like it worked last season,
• 47:49
  but I agree it did. They didn't, no doubt about that. But
• 47:54
  we're not on football talk yet, so we're not sorry. I forgot what
• 47:59
  talk. We were wrong Arkansas, but they just coaching basketball LA basketball stuff.
• 48:05
  Anyway, it looks like Chris Jans uh from Mississippi State is going to
• 48:08
  be interviewing and also the Uh Darrell. I'm gonna make sure I pronounced his
• 48:15
  name right, pronouncing African American l. Now, how do you know it's
• 48:22
  Darrell Walker. He's actually the coach, but he's sixty three. Well,
• 48:27
  yeah, he's the coach of Arkansas State. I'm sorry, Arkansas little rock.
• 48:30
  Yeah that's what that sounds. Name pop up for for a couple of
• 48:35
  other jobs, oopsie the paper. But I like the jans coach. I
• 48:42
  think he Mexican. He was at New Mexico at a Hell, what about
• 48:45
  the two and I sent you the other two top assistants that looked like they'd
• 48:51
  be permanent for that Okland State job because they fit the facial mold. Well,
• 48:55
  you know, I think they hired lutstop or loose, however you want
• 48:59
  to pronounce it. I think the hired him because it's he was at Purdue.
• 49:02
  It's Midwest. Oh issues, not Midwest, but it's it's lower Midwest.
• 49:06
  But then he was at Texas Corpus Christie, he went to which which
• 49:08
  Western Kentucky. He's had success everywhere he's went, so they like that,
• 49:14
  and he's but he's three years head coach, is it? That's all he's
• 49:16
  had. Western Kentucky generally is a good program. So you might have come
• 49:20
  into some good players. But how hard is it to tell now? I
• 49:22
  mean you really can't say that coach B is winning off coach A. You
• 49:29
  know what I mean? Well as Oklahoma. Uh and I heard long Cruger's
• 49:34
  then brought up today. Uh he no, no, he's he's on the
• 49:37
  committee or something. Oh yeah, it was, Oh you hired VCU's coach.
• 49:44
  Uddly to find out that it was his assistant that was a good coach,
• 49:46
  and the recruiter and the recruiter, you know, Jeff Kple has not
• 49:52
  done bad at Pittsburgh. He probably should. He has not, but when
• 49:54
  he came to you to fix them again. But when he came, he
• 49:59
  did not bring that guy. He did not ring that recruiter, and they
• 50:01
  ended up taking over the program. And Old Dominion or VCU, Virginia Commonwealth,
• 50:08
  they're all up there. They're all in the same place. Uh.
• 50:13
  But the you know, they ended up they ended up succeeding in that program.
• 50:16
  Still, are you trying to look up location of Virginia? No,
• 50:20
  no, no, no, Old Dominion is it is in Virginia somewhere,
• 50:23
  That's right, So, bitch, I just don't know what Old Dominion.
• 50:28
  Okay, they have a railroad and there's a band called that to a country
• 50:31
  man. All right, Uh, NBA, sure, because we're done I
• 50:37
  think we're done with yeah yeah, yeah, we'll talk about that for hours.
• 50:43
  We've already hit forty forty nine. Yeah, we are going to be
• 50:45
  long today. Yeah, NBA ye. The Bulls so the Bulls have have
• 50:53
  have have gotten the playing game along with the Hawks currently right now. No,
• 50:59
  they have okay, yeah they have. Everybody else is eliminated now whether
• 51:04
  they move up or down depends on them three to four. But the everyone
• 51:13
  from one to ten is set. Just positioning, is what they're looking at.
• 51:16
  Boston has the overall sixty two and sixteen isn't nuts. Milwaukee fifteen is
• 51:24
  already behind the Bucks that the second look at look at the Magic Knicks.
• 51:30
  Yes, everybody else's pacers. I mean you can even throw the heat heat
• 51:35
  or three games back, four games back, six or is four games back.
• 51:37
  You've got Chicago and Atlanta who are at twenty five. Are they guaranteed
• 51:42
  it? Yeah? Yeah, so they're all guaranteed. That's a one game
• 51:45
  play. Yeah yeah, that's between those two. So that game is guaranteed.
• 51:50
  Whether they move up or down is on them. Now essentially you're your
• 51:52
  seating, but is not going to change. It looks like now going back
• 51:55
  to the Thunder, it looks like we're going to have the third seed.
• 51:59
  Now, Jilliams, with the way that Oklahoma sei team's dropping injuries, Shay
• 52:04
  hadn't played, well, let's let's know, the two best players hadn't played.
• 52:07
  Oh my god, I think it's intentional. I think they're resting them
• 52:13
  because I don't think I think they know four games left. I guess it's
• 52:16
  possible they could drop to that fourth seed, But they ain't gonna do any
• 52:21
  worse than the three or four. Yeah, they're not getting out of the
• 52:22
  top five. No, they're not going to get dropped below four. Well,
• 52:27
  I'm just saying that, Doallas. I'm giving you an overall, they're
• 52:30
  not dropping out of the top five. Now you want to look at a
• 52:32
  matchup though, I mean you look at the Thunder or you know, right
• 52:37
  now, looking like they're going to have to play the Pelicans. Not the
• 52:43
  greatest matchup that healthy fat boy. Now, I don't really really hate the
• 52:50
  Kings. If the Kings move up, I do not want to play them.
• 52:52
  And the Lakers actually look to be one of the best teams right now,
• 52:54
  don't I'm just saying that they're nine to one in their last ten for
• 53:00
  that bullshit. In there's still the Lakers, you know, Dallas in Dallas
• 53:04
  and the and the and the Lakers are the two best teams as far as
• 53:07
  momentum going in right now. I just don't care. You can tell me
• 53:12
  that the Lakers I hate seeing that in my feed. I don't even have
• 53:15
  them as a favorite team, and all I see is Lebron James, Anthony
• 53:20
  Davis, blah blah, blah. I'm like, I don't care, stop
• 53:22
  putting this in my feed. You know what show me? You know,
• 53:24
  I'll take Phoenix Suns news. I don't even take the crappy Oaklahoma City Thunder
• 53:29
  news or the Sacramento Kings. So negative on the Thunder, Well that's my
• 53:34
  wi. You go to their parade when they win the championship. I'm just
• 53:38
  saying, I mean, I'll go to the zoo. You bet you wouldn't
• 53:42
  go to their parade? Why would I go to their parade? Would I
• 53:45
  have to go with you? I'll definitely be there at the parade, by
• 53:49
  your life. Just be a party of sports. Allegedly party at the parade.
• 53:53
  Well, apparently I have to go to my parade when they win it,
• 53:57
  if they win it anyway, So you know, Thunder right now setting
• 54:00
  on the third like we said, the third seed fifty three and twenty five.
• 54:04
  They did beat the Magic today, not by much, and the Magic
• 54:07
  are a horrible team. But like I said, Jalen and Shay still out
• 54:12
  for that game, nursing the injuries. I really think they're probably more resting
• 54:15
  them than anything. I just think it's because they're too tall and twenty eight
• 54:19
  twenty nine and eight record at home this year comparable to the Nuggets thirty two
• 54:22
  and eight, and the Nuggets still to me look like the best team Minnesota.
• 54:29
  I'd love to see if the Thunder have to go out, I would
• 54:31
  love to see a Minnesota Denver because you've got go beart now at the Timberwolves
• 54:36
  to go against Yoki. I think that would be I think that I think
• 54:40
  that would be a great, a great matchup. It will just beat the
• 54:45
  Thunder now now then maybe, But now you look at the teams like the
• 54:50
  Pistons and the Pistons, the Wizards, Pistons, Wizards, who's the Vikings,
• 55:00
  Spurs and who else is at the bottom of the West? UH Portland
• 55:04
  and the rebuild Houston. This is a pretty weak draft and it's gonna be
• 55:07
  an interesting NBA draft this year because there's you don't really you know when Buyana
• 55:12
  was obviously didn't just didn't they just get close to the Yeah they get well,
• 55:19
  Donovan Mitchell went to Cleveland, remember, and then Gobert went to UH
• 55:22
  to the Viking and to the You got on my mind, But anyway,
• 55:31
  that's your update. Four games left. When we talked, when we when
• 55:35
  we talked, Craig, we need to call you when we talked. When
• 55:37
  we talked about uh, we talked about last week. I mean, when
• 55:42
  we go to next week, that's actually gonna be the layoffs. We'll have
• 55:45
  the playoffs set for the NBA the last week. This is the last week.
• 55:50
  Well you know what I say that there's four games. They could spread
• 55:52
  that stuff out, so it's gonna be probably two weeks to be honest.
• 55:55
  But I know the like the thought were looking at the NHL. Their their
• 56:00
  season is winding down. Yeah, well, the NHL and the NBA both
• 56:05
  inner. What do they do that? I wish I wish one of them
• 56:07
  would start a little later, and they used to. They used to.
• 56:10
  But God, did the NBA shorten their season or change their season? Games?
• 56:17
  But didn't they change they might have spread it out or started. I
• 56:20
  mean, you know, I don't think that they should start. I think
• 56:22
  they're openings through. It looks like the twelve tell it, yeah, because
• 56:32
  I don't see a continuation there it is right there. Well look, hey,
• 56:37
  Sean, look at that schedule. You've got them. We played today,
• 56:39
  See if there's one right there? No, wait, wait back to
• 56:45
  Oklama City. Yeah, that was today. See if they got four games
• 56:47
  left somewhere down there. Okay, so there's nothing. So Tuesday there's one.
• 56:52
  They play Sacramento at home. No game that week, Oh, San
• 56:59
  Antonio, Okay, I'm pointing right at it. Maybe they've said three games
• 57:09
  left. Maybe I did the math on well you probably included today's game.
• 57:14
  Oh, very very true, very true. All right, Well there you
• 57:17
  go. I means left three games left. So that's only through the thirteenth
• 57:23
  and that's the end of this week. That makes about sense because it's about
• 57:25
  tax time. They'll start the playoffs and that will roll generally. What championship
• 57:31
  in junior July June seems like it. Yeah, so good, that'll be
• 57:36
  fun sports. And then after that then we're toast nothing, nothing happens.
• 57:40
  He's the quick hockey. I have this for you. I'll let you pull
• 57:43
  that out. Oh yeah, we want to add the hockey talk because I
• 57:46
  don't think you've ever seen you've either seen a line a line fight. So
• 57:51
  this is all set up. Everybody know about it before the game. And
• 57:54
  just watch, just watch the guys, just just watch how they're standing and
• 57:59
  what how So this is where Garden has seen its fair share of bounce on
• 58:02
  the canvas. On the ice, it's no under cars, d stood up
• 58:10
  and he's gone fences that they've all got control. That's dropped them with Kevin
• 58:17
  Ball as well. They just five on five. Yeah, Ermott and Ny
• 58:22
  exchanging blood of the You ever seen them where the ladys grooves off in the
• 58:28
  guard he always got in turn so young Trey Miller and John bu battle's only
• 58:36
  four officials, there's five ice but Joe when we cooped that can still drawing.
• 58:42
  John's rad Miller he is probably better. John Marino down on the other
• 58:45
  end, and so like Derman, the feeding rights to Rempa. Think it's
• 58:52
  so cleos with the Martins, the other four all done late events, still
• 58:58
  going supper aside mathon between and I just mad blood h they youse guys are
• 59:16
  just the Jersey and and Rangers and always a huge and the fact that it's
• 59:27
  it's gotten played up with both teams being good now the Devils they're down this
• 59:30
  year, the Ranges up and like last year they were both out because the
• 59:36
  Devil's looked to the Devil's looked to the playoffs little season, So I guess
• 59:43
  it was Rent and Curtis McDermot had I guess, and that's what kind of
• 59:50
  started it, and then everyone else just went along. Yeah, so you
• 59:54
  got the coaches now bickering at each other. He's telling him that he's a
• 59:58
  piece of ship. So he'll come back over and then I'll call him an
• 1:00:02
  asshole. See, we walked all the way across. He's come back over
• 1:00:08
  to tell me he's an asshole because they've got that sef in that box.
• 1:00:15
  Now, that ranger coach, he's a fireball. That isn't fact. I've
• 1:00:17
  seen him. He didn't. He puts his guy back down. But it
• 1:00:21
  took me back to classic hockey. It really took me about to cut the
• 1:00:25
  guys. Oh, here we go. But the guys just sits that they're
• 1:00:29
  laughing at That's funny is you got guys get kicked out. But these guys
• 1:00:31
  all have to set the penalty box together. Listen, there's nothing better,
• 1:00:39
  as we talk about getting into in a in a NBA hockey or NBA playoffs.
• 1:00:45
  Hockey, NBA players hockey playoffs are the best. I hate to see
• 1:00:50
  you. I mean, they are the best watch especially because you know,
• 1:00:53
  generally I don't necessarily watch a game and go oh, my god, I've
• 1:00:58
  got to have this team win. I'm not. It's fun to be able
• 1:01:00
  to set and watch those games and uh and not worry about that. Okay,
• 1:01:06
  all right, we've got quick up. I'm gonna give a quick hits
• 1:01:09
  before we get into our NF. We're gonna go to our NFL. We're
• 1:01:13
  at an hour right now. I want to talk about softball. Lost two
• 1:01:15
  out of three this week to Texas. First time that, oh you,
• 1:01:17
  Softball's lost the Texas series to them since two thousand and nine. This one,
• 1:01:25
  oh you, football, I want to talk about. I want to
• 1:01:31
  talk about are we going to bring our Texas inside? I want to talk
• 1:01:35
  about softball. Okay, I need to know what your numbers? Is A
• 1:01:38
  week of talk, I just you gotta use it. So that's uh yeah,
• 1:01:49
  that one and then I yeah, okay, see if the answers and
• 1:02:00
  I am sure they're just giddy as hell going on over there in Texas Land.
• 1:02:07
  Mhm, have you got anything going on that we're ringing? I gotta
• 1:02:16
  show you UFL video fat guy touching touchdown? He might be I think he's
• 1:02:22
  on. Hello. Hey, all right, hey, got Craig joining us
• 1:02:31
  on this episode of sports allegedly wanted to talk a little bit about so you've
• 1:02:35
  had made a snoight comment about the lady. Yeah, talk about your lady
• 1:02:38
  soft softballers one and that not today. What I just heard something I say
• 1:02:50
  O G two and the Okay, so you guys won two to one in
• 1:02:54
  two games. Now, hey, we're not taking anything away from the win.
• 1:02:59
  It's an impressive win to beat the number one team in the country.
• 1:03:01
  You guys are ranked number four and I think it was number four, and
• 1:03:06
  in one of the polls they have multiple poles for something. Anyway, Yeah,
• 1:03:08
  I mean, and you guys might move up back to number two or
• 1:03:12
  three currently on the season, you did lose to Oklahoma State. You lost
• 1:03:16
  the series of Oklahoma State. Oh and you know five to nothing you lost
• 1:03:20
  to them, and then three to nothing. Then you come back with a
• 1:03:22
  good weekend series at Texas to beat ou by two runs and two games or
• 1:03:28
  one run each in two games. So that just goes to show that Texas
• 1:03:32
  could play with anybody. Not saying that. You know, if you would
• 1:03:37
  go to best of five to oh, you wouldn't win that five. Now
• 1:03:43
  did you see that? Now? Did you see that? You're we had
• 1:03:45
  some other Texas news today, and like I said, good win, it
• 1:03:49
  was a good series win. I don't think anybody that's an OU fan thought
• 1:03:52
  that this team is going to be as good as last year's team. There's
• 1:03:55
  no way, I'll I've said that multiple times, especially with the loss of
• 1:04:00
  Jordi ball Well. But that's the problem right now though, is the hitting
• 1:04:02
  has been the issue. It's not been the damn pitching. You know,
• 1:04:05
  they're deep and pitching, but they don't have star, they don't have a
• 1:04:09
  they don't have a Maxwell's the best, but she was at OSU and oh
• 1:04:12
  you beat her? You know what I'm saying. Uh, But Texas looks
• 1:04:15
  like they're deep enough to actually make a good run. It looks like Texas,
• 1:04:17
  UCLA, Tennessee, Oklahoma look like the four big softball programs. I
• 1:04:23
  would be surprised would make the final. Wouldn't be surprised that they make the
• 1:04:26
  final. But I wanted to talk about sweat getting the DUI today right before
• 1:04:30
  the draft. Did you see those news? How did I know you were
• 1:04:34
  going to bring that up. We had to make sure that you understood.
• 1:04:41
  Drink driving is not good and there seems to be an issue in Texas and
• 1:04:45
  Georgia. Yes, is it like you guys are going to the sec to
• 1:04:48
  you you want to emulate Georgia so much that you just have to get You
• 1:04:53
  got to have your players do some stupid ship driving to listen, that's just
• 1:04:58
  Texas for you. Right when you think they're started getting everything together, this
• 1:05:01
  happened. Well, yeah, he won the Outland Trophy. I mean,
• 1:05:04
  he's projected to be a first round pick, even though I think he ain't
• 1:05:09
  any good myself. I just don't. I think he's going to be an
• 1:05:12
  NFL bus and and so. But I mean he's gonna go high and uh.
• 1:05:18
  His bond was set at three thousand dollars. But the funny thing is
• 1:05:21
  he was arrested in Austin. Is it Travis County? Is it Travis County?
• 1:05:29
  Austin thought Austin was out of car. I didn't think Austin had police
• 1:05:31
  officers anymore. Well, especially for the football team. Well, I mean
• 1:05:38
  this is kind of he could we could say the same thing about you know,
• 1:05:43
  your best buddy Baker Mayfield. He tried to rumping the cops and got
• 1:05:46
  spared back. You know, heaven black cop. But but he was tanked
• 1:05:49
  and he wasn't driving. He was no, no, he was high.
• 1:05:56
  No, no, he did not he was tank. He was tanked and
• 1:06:00
  he wasn't driving before he was high as ship. So now you just Sean
• 1:06:04
  said he was high. Yeah, allegedly. Don't believe that. But no,
• 1:06:09
  I know I wanted to give you a hell because you know that when
• 1:06:13
  he got busted, we knew that that that the softball Texas is gloating this
• 1:06:17
  weekend. It's a big week Oh yes for softball. But we did have
• 1:06:20
  to bring up that that sweat did get get dr it was and he was
• 1:06:27
  booked in the afternoon. Say what time he got pulled over? Because by
• 1:06:30
  god, I mean he said he was booked in the afternoon. Was he
• 1:06:32
  drinking in the morning or what? Oh yeah, I'm sure he was.
• 1:06:36
  He probably had. He was booked at Travis County Jail at to twelve pm
• 1:06:43
  Central on Sunday. Well, he was day drinking. He was doing the
• 1:06:45
  Sunday Yeah, he started with mimosas and then starting You gotta remember, you
• 1:06:54
  remember in the nineties, I would say the end of the nineties, back
• 1:06:59
  cops you to take care of their sports players in their college towns. Uh
• 1:07:04
  so, and that has changed in the two thousands. It's it's not so
• 1:07:08
  much that they're that they're allowed because there's cell phones and people catching them.
• 1:07:13
  I think I know somebody who was involved in a situation outside of a liquor
• 1:07:16
  store because of a cell phone camera. So, uh, you know,
• 1:07:24
  you're no longer protected because everybody's got cameras everywhere. So yeah, that's you,
• 1:07:30
  you know, And and everybody gets everybody gets the records now and and
• 1:07:33
  I did. And another news that oh, Texas got a good four star
• 1:07:41
  commitment from Ricky Stewart from Tyler Chapel Hill. Hold on. The funny thing
• 1:07:47
  about him though, is he decommitted from s m U. Yes, yeah,
• 1:07:53
  And other schools include Alabama, Arkansas, Baylor, Michigan, Missouri,
• 1:07:56
  Oklahoma, State, Ole, miss Oregon, TCU. Now Oklahoma on the
• 1:08:00
  other hand, got a commitment from four star Tory Blaylock. And they beat
• 1:08:03
  out Ohio State and Oregon for this guy in Texas, so or A and
• 1:08:10
  m actually so actually, I don't know, maybe we got a little better.
• 1:08:13
  We'll see how that goes. I mean eighty pounder from Texas, I
• 1:08:15
  mean best money can buy for the Longhorns. Whatever it means. I'm telling
• 1:08:19
  you there's no champion. There's no coincidence. There's no coincidence. There's no
• 1:08:26
  coincidence that Texas has gotten better when Neil started the money is there? Think
• 1:08:31
  about it? Oh yeah, yeah, I agree. Oh you we just
• 1:08:35
  build you know, a little bit movie, not arch Manning. So how
• 1:08:40
  much better can they be? The football Texas got? The gods have given
• 1:08:44
  Texas a break for the SEC for two years because you know, the schedule
• 1:08:46
  came out obviously for twenty twenty four. The schedule you've already known twenty twenty
• 1:08:51
  five. It's just the same. It's the same schedule. They're just reversing
• 1:08:57
  the homes. No, it's not fun, one of them. One of
• 1:09:00
  the hardest schedules in SEC. Come on now, oh you yes, they
• 1:09:03
  are, hands down, Texas has the easiest. I think you guys play
• 1:09:08
  Vanderbilt, Kentucky and some other squabs. We play l s U Alabama.
• 1:09:14
  Well, we don't know how good Auburn. It's going to be better than
• 1:09:17
  Vanderbilt. So stop better than Vanderbilt. I mean Texas. You know,
• 1:09:23
  Texas is going to have Texas State Corpus Christie and then two other scrubs and
• 1:09:28
  then all of us. Oh, well, we play Michigan too, don't
• 1:09:30
  forget that. OHU has Michigan on the non conference. I've got Texas played
• 1:09:34
  Michigan. No, I think, oh you has them? Oh this year?
• 1:09:40
  Uh? Yeah, yeah, but did you play them last year?
• 1:09:44
  Hold on, I'm trying to find their schedule. And yeah, and then
• 1:09:53
  a home and home for what Yes, you do have Michigan. I'm sorry,
• 1:09:58
  you do have Michigan. Yes, that's right. Yeah, and I
• 1:10:00
  think we play them twenty twenty five. Okay, yeah, so I mean
• 1:10:03
  so Texas has Michigan, University of Texas, San Antoni and louisiing Monroe and
• 1:10:09
  it's already turned into that. And then they've gotten hold on the Mississippi State.
• 1:10:12
  They ain't any good yea Missippi State signing good? They play Oklahoma,
• 1:10:15
  they'll be the first loss, and then they'll play uh wait wait wait wait,
• 1:10:17
  wait time out. Did you say their first law? And then yes,
• 1:10:20
  and and they'll unless Michigan Beaches so it could be second, but anyway,
• 1:10:25
  and uh, Georgia, you do have to play Georgia. I forgot
• 1:10:28
  about that. But then you've got Vanderbilt Florida, Arkansas, Kentucky and Texas.
• 1:10:32
  A and M Kentucky, Kentucky. Are you glad to be bringing back
• 1:10:36
  the A and M rivalry? Oh yeah, So you're not one of those
• 1:10:42
  You're not one of those. Yeah yeah, you're not one of those weak
• 1:10:45
  Longhorn fans that don't like that. Correct. No, no, no,
• 1:10:47
  I love that would play A and M. But as long as long as
• 1:10:51
  we keep beating you, than I'm perfectly fine. Didn't last year? Oh
• 1:10:55
  no, what happened? Did you beat us last year? Was it?
• 1:10:58
  I don't think you did. No, let me go and look at that,
• 1:11:01
  and man, I'm telling you, I am, I'm telling you this
• 1:11:05
  year owe you is. I mean, we're gonna have a tough schedule.
• 1:11:11
  I think we're gonna go probably about nine and threes my early prediction. We'll
• 1:11:14
  get to that later as we get close to the season. Nine and three
• 1:11:17
  could sneak into the playoffs since they've expanded to twelve, don't really know,
• 1:11:23
  but if we could get ten and two. Now, some people think Jackson
• 1:11:27
  Arnold's going to be a bust. I think he's going to be not a
• 1:11:29
  Heisman this year. I think he's going to be a Heisman finalist next year.
• 1:11:32
  He's going to be a bust. I know what. You said it,
• 1:11:35
  and so is my son. You're the two that say he's going to
• 1:11:39
  be a bust. But I just don't get that. But hey, listen
• 1:11:41
  right now, and you're hearing it from me first. You didn't hear it
• 1:11:44
  from me first, actually, because I've been reading a bunch. The Hawkins
• 1:11:46
  kid that's the backup quarterback is going to be Yeah, start Hawkins. No
• 1:11:51
  he is. He will be the starter before No, no, no,
• 1:11:55
  no, he's not gonna be the starter. I said, he's going to
• 1:11:57
  be the star, you know, because because Jackson can't quinners for Jackson,
• 1:12:01
  No Jackson. So you guys, no talking about Texas Jackson. Arnolds only
• 1:12:05
  got two years left at Oklahoma. He'll be he'll be top five pick in
• 1:12:09
  the draft in twenty twenty. He's got twenty four twenty. My gosh,
• 1:12:13
  just here we go. But the Hawkins kid is him star. He was
• 1:12:16
  sent Spencer Rettler to the NFL Draft. That's South Carolina team. All right,
• 1:12:21
  Well, Craig, thanks for joining us on this episode. We'll bring
• 1:12:24
  you back soon in case some other players get duys or do dumb shit for
• 1:12:28
  Texas. And in that case, don't forget that you know, Baker Mayfield
• 1:12:32
  will be playing uh europe football before long. You said that. Just got
• 1:12:39
  a big contract extension with Tampa Bay. You, you and cow Turd and
• 1:12:43
  all them people that were against Baker, you know, got a new contract
• 1:12:48
  and and we're going to talk about after this, we'll get on. We're
• 1:12:50
  going to talk about Tampa Bay's upcoming. See, I'm gonna tell you,
• 1:12:54
  Craig, I am excited for the ELF. I am excited for the ELF
• 1:12:58
  because they've they've expanded. Uh there's the health European League of Football, it's
• 1:13:03
  the NFL and it comes up to ELF. Gotcha. Well, we'll do
• 1:13:09
  more talk later. We actually know players over there. Thanks Craig for joining
• 1:13:13
  us. We'll catch you hey, but keep you know, keep listening.
• 1:13:15
  You a lot of Texas go get your Baker Mayfield that date real quick we
• 1:13:18
  talked about. Oh yeah, I'll be all right. Thanks for joining us.
• 1:13:24
  We'll catch you next time. Good night, Good All right, there's
• 1:13:27
  our Texas insider, Craig. Thanks for joining us. Talk about obviously a
• 1:13:31
  little bit of Texas softball, but a lot about the t U y,
• 1:13:35
  which we have to give him hell because the movie just don't like Texas.
• 1:13:39
  Uh quick, UFL Kenny, did you see this? Uh? Let me
• 1:13:43
  let me run this real cool sixty two yard field go by Jake. No
• 1:13:45
  no, no, no, no no. This is the punter throwing a
• 1:13:47
  forty yard touchdown for the for the brahmise to the center. And what he
• 1:13:54
  said, what he said after was like, it's a really good, really
• 1:13:58
  good day for fat guys. A lot of I love it. The punter
• 1:14:00
  gets a touchdown throw and the fat guy gets the damn intercept. Hey listen,
• 1:14:05
  you know it's not obviously, you know, I really think that pro
• 1:14:09
  sports we tend to gleam onto the players and the names and individuals. And
• 1:14:15
  obviously I know that these these minor leagues aren't near as good as the last,
• 1:14:23
  but it is that's what you watch it. But you know, it's
• 1:14:27
  just what I brought up earlier. You are, you've got you get these
• 1:14:30
  teams established, you had you had more in smaller uh smaller cities, and
• 1:14:34
  you get that team established. So the NFL needs to put a little money
• 1:14:39
  into it. And uh and then they you know, they come in and
• 1:14:44
  there's an already built team, so you're not having to pay for the the
• 1:14:47
  overhead of of building a front office. You're not. I mean, the
• 1:14:51
  most you would have to do is figure out stadium issues if you if but
• 1:14:57
  you already have pre built teams and you could just do that bring them up.
• 1:15:00
  And I think though that I like that theory. But the only thing
• 1:15:02
  I think they're thinking about is sticking these minor league teams in big populated cities.
• 1:15:06
  But that's what I'm saying. That's what I'm saying. You put them
• 1:15:09
  in in the larger cities starting out, and then you know, from there
• 1:15:12
  you spread Oh, I see what you're saying. Then you can move them
• 1:15:14
  in yeah, or you know, you start them there, you let them
• 1:15:17
  build up like Birmingham. Look at Birmingham Steins. They've won the they won
• 1:15:20
  the USFO consistent and they have been consistent and the crowds have been good there
• 1:15:25
  too, uh and Saint Louis as well, So you don't have to do
• 1:15:29
  anything. The front office has already built. The structure of the team is
• 1:15:32
  already built. And and what they're doing there though is there is there obviously,
• 1:15:39
  you know, you look at the the Renegades they're playing in the other
• 1:15:42
  stadium that the Rangers. So you've got and that doesn't interfere with even DC.
• 1:15:49
  Is that Audi Field that's not the best? Is that the old FedEx
• 1:15:53
  Field? Now okay, and obviously the Michigan they played at the old I
• 1:15:57
  want to talk about Jake Baits another sixty two yard to kick to sixty four
• 1:16:00
  last sixty four the second longest at Ford Field. Yea sixty two again to
• 1:16:04
  this week. I think it was Friday or sad the third longest again,
• 1:16:11
  I thought that was that and get off of the UFL. I would like
• 1:16:14
  to see a lot of young young players go there instead of go into the
• 1:16:18
  draft or try to be drafted. In that way, they can get playtime,
• 1:16:24
  they can learn. Because Wade Phillips is there, uh Skip Holtz,
• 1:16:29
  I believe he's the I think I think I think there's gonna be a stigma
• 1:16:32
  to get over that for a little bit. You're gonna need to see more
• 1:16:36
  nobody's from college get there succeed. I don't think you're gonna see big mid
• 1:16:44
  to big college Spencer Rattler comes. No. I think there's no Yeah,
• 1:16:48
  I mean, I think there's a stigma It's like, can you get the
• 1:16:51
  quarterback from the Memphis Showboats? Is he gonna be any you know what I
• 1:16:55
  mean, He's gonna be any good. So I think there's a stigma there
• 1:16:58
  once that if you can continue to build this league they've combined, it's a
• 1:17:00
  good start, continue to build it. But anyway, real quick before we
• 1:17:05
  get to the NFL, because I know, but I did mention I was
• 1:17:09
  joking, but four star Tory Blaylock did commit. He's a Texas kid,
• 1:17:13
  four star running back. And then also we got I can't even read my
• 1:17:17
  dad, Darius Wimbley. I thinks his name from We got a safety from
• 1:17:24
  Arkansas. I think he's a second he's four stars, second, second or
• 1:17:29
  third ranked player coming out of Arkansas. He's coming in Dar. I think
• 1:17:34
  it was Darius. But anyway, do we have as we look up those
• 1:17:45
  names, I'm gonna get those names right because that drives me in. Marcus
• 1:17:46
  Wimberley, I'm sorry, Marcus, Marcus Wimberley safety from No. I mean,
• 1:17:53
  but I'm telling you I have I know we're got the rose colored or
• 1:17:59
  the Crimson glass. I like the thing about Oklahoma football is Venables has continued
• 1:18:05
  to succeed in recruiting when it's harder to recruit with money. Because I know
• 1:18:11
  yours as a blue blood program, but I just don't still don't think we
• 1:18:14
  have the money like some of these big name programs good money. We just
• 1:18:17
  don't have that. But you're continuing to improve on recruiting that Lincoln Riley did
• 1:18:23
  when you didn't have to deal with that. That's kind of my point.
• 1:18:28
  No, that's true, that's true. All right, that's that's your news
• 1:18:30
  for you. Oh you football, Hold on. I want to talk a
• 1:18:32
  little bit about OU basketball. Jalen Moore, best player on our team,
• 1:18:38
  is actually declared for the draft, but he's not hiring agent. He can
• 1:18:41
  come back, so he's done the same thing exactly exactly, and he can
• 1:18:45
  come back and see where he ranks. Obviously, we've lost three others to
• 1:18:50
  the portal h On, the big guy, the comedian, and so we've
• 1:19:02
  lost them. We talked about before we get it out it because we're going
• 1:19:08
  to close with the NFL. Just no, I wanted to talk about one
• 1:19:12
  No, im not. I haven't. But one thing I want to talk
• 1:19:14
  about is Battle of the Coast. Did you see that Battle of the Coast
• 1:19:17
  did you see this? Okay, so this is November one, eight o'clock.
• 1:19:24
  It's going to be Florida Atlantic versus University of South Florida football will and
• 1:19:29
  it's going to take place. It's the first football game take take that takes
• 1:19:32
  place on a carrier. They're going to be in the ocean, the Atlantic
• 1:19:36
  Ocean. Did you see that? Didn't they play a game that was that
• 1:19:41
  was basketball? Maybe? Well the wwe did it. But this is going
• 1:19:46
  to be the first college football game on an aircraft carrier in the Atlantic Ocean.
• 1:19:51
  Yeah. I could have swear they did it docked. I think there
• 1:19:54
  was there was like a Navy game that they did docked. That's quite possible.
• 1:19:58
  Yes, they've done that before. It's the first time actually gonna be
• 1:20:00
  out. Okay, so how is that gonna I don't know, or long
• 1:20:03
  passes, what happens, what happens to be gone abound? You got nothing
• 1:20:06
  to stop you. You're in the ocean and you're like, hey, guys,
• 1:20:10
  there's a shark. It's gonna be interesting because they did it. It's
• 1:20:13
  eating you just picture they did kind of a mock up picture of it,
• 1:20:16
  and I thought, how are they going to do that? Because football feels
• 1:20:18
  huge. I mean, I assume I've never been on an aircraft carry but
• 1:20:21
  I assume Florida Atlantic and University of South Florida. So the Bulls and the
• 1:20:29
  and the the Owls will face off eight o'clock November one, And that's a
• 1:20:34
  football game on a basketball game. Football. And when you start searching that
• 1:20:41
  I want to talk a little bit of we get a segue in the NFL.
• 1:20:43
  You need to start hurrying because I'm yeah, but the one thing I
• 1:20:46
  want to talk about the big news. Yes see, the post immediately filled.
• 1:20:54
  So at first was it a joke A you got, I got,
• 1:21:03
  I got, you got got Atlantic? You know it was on you know
• 1:21:10
  what I had to No, I really tried hard to pay attention to that.
• 1:21:15
  No. I want to have this happen. I need to have this
• 1:21:18
  happen. Now. It looks so real too. I mean all the logos
• 1:21:24
  were posted. Oh my gosh, Lane Kiffin and his ass. I know
• 1:21:29
  he was her former Lane Kiff in school. I know he was up to
• 1:21:31
  that. God, I thought that was a good idea though that. I
• 1:21:38
  was like, that's gonna be interesting to see that done. I'm off social
• 1:21:43
  media. I'm taking a break. I'm done, Let's move on. I
• 1:21:48
  love that. I can't you know what, Let's move on. But you're
• 1:21:54
  right, they did have other games on carriers. I thought that was right.
• 1:21:58
  That's why I believe they were damn it. I kind of believe you
• 1:22:00
  were in the We're getting ready to talk about the NFL South. We're going
• 1:22:03
  to do a quick breakdown because we're way long. But I did want to
• 1:22:06
  talk about the biggest news coming out of the NFL this week. Obviously the
• 1:22:10
  biggest it was. It was the Digs trade. Obviously, Yeah, yeah,
• 1:22:14
  Stefan Diggs gets traded. I don't think he wanted to be traded,
• 1:22:16
  but you know did Okay, so a couple of no, he gets traded
• 1:22:19
  to the Houston Texans, which had an exceptional year last year. We must
• 1:22:24
  agree, got beat by the Chiefs, I believe in the playoffs. Was
• 1:22:27
  that correct? Yep? And he had two drops and the but no,
• 1:22:32
  the thing about you know he had he had two jobs. He was targeted
• 1:22:35
  two times and no, but think about the Texans. So I want to
• 1:22:38
  talk a little bit about what the Texans. Let's get to the trade.
• 1:22:44
  They take him, They give up very little. I think they they lost,
• 1:22:47
  they give up the second round picks third. Yeah, that's it.
• 1:22:50
  And then and then they ended up getting to two thirty two, the Buffalo
• 1:22:54
  got they moved and six something like that, and Buffalo eats the Deaen money.
• 1:23:03
  Yes, thirty million dollars. That's the biggest dead money out there right
• 1:23:08
  now, that think is what they said. And then so what Houston done
• 1:23:11
  is they bring Houston, brings him in after the trade and says, hey,
• 1:23:15
  we're gonna avoid your last three years of year contract because you're already getting
• 1:23:19
  paid nineteen million this year by the Bills, you know, because they didn't
• 1:23:25
  it's a dead cat, but it's not cash, if that makes sense.
• 1:23:29
  So the Bills had to pay him the nineteen Houston voids the last three years
• 1:23:32
  of his contract, turns around and tops that off with a three point five
• 1:23:36
  million dollar bonus this year. He's gonna be making twenty two and a half
• 1:23:42
  million dollars this year and it's his last year. He's a free agent after
• 1:23:46
  this year. Yeah, because they paid that, so they're enticing him.
• 1:23:49
  Yeah, they stay race. So what do you think he's gonna play.
• 1:23:55
  Buffalo's eat eating the thirty one million dead camp Houston is essentially just wipes out
• 1:24:00
  his contract and says, here's this and we're gonna know, we're gonna add
• 1:24:06
  three million this. Yeah, it's great, it's and essentially just moved around
• 1:24:14
  on he's been the leading receiver. See, they've had other pigs, but
• 1:24:16
  that's why they can maneuver. Yes, but he's been the leading receiver in
• 1:24:20
  the last two years. But you got Tank and then who was the other
• 1:24:23
  Nico Collins? You got digs there, Yeah, the Houston the Houston gambler,
• 1:24:30
  riverboat gamblers. Okay, so so what what I saw about that,
• 1:24:34
  though, is they interestingly that they just want to get rid of them.
• 1:24:39
  There's an issue. Then well, no, look at the whole, the
• 1:24:42
  team of the whole. They're they're going younger. There the Buffalo has gotten
• 1:24:45
  rid and uh, if you look at dumb Nuts's contract, it's starting to
• 1:24:51
  take effect on the whole team. Shakir the guy, the Shakiro wide receiver,
• 1:24:57
  he is now their number one. He's moved to number one. Thirty
• 1:25:00
  nine catches last year, six hundred yards, two touchdowns, that's his stat
• 1:25:03
  that's that's that is now the Bills number one almost because they lost who else
• 1:25:10
  did they lose to the free agent. They lose their safety. No,
• 1:25:13
  no, no, the other wide receiver, where did he got gayor Gage
• 1:25:15
  or what was his name? Yeah? Anyway, I'm not even on it.
• 1:25:18
  But anyway, they lost their other second one, Gabe, Gabe Davis.
• 1:25:21
  Is that his name was a Gabe Davis. God, I'm just throwing
• 1:25:25
  it off mine. Anyway, he got signed by somebody too, so but
• 1:25:29
  no, I mean I thought the contract. I mean, they wanted to
• 1:25:30
  get out of him. So listen to the Texans right now. They got
• 1:25:35
  digs, they got a great team, They got a great one hundred plus
• 1:25:39
  catches last year. Joe Mixon signed with the Texans, one thousand yard rusher
• 1:25:43
  over one thousand yard rusher last year. And then you got Danil Hunter,
• 1:25:46
  the defensive guy ten plus sacks from the Vikings. Vikings lost their best defensive
• 1:25:51
  player. I mean, they got what's his face back, I can't remember
• 1:25:55
  his name they signed him, but the Hunter was their best defensive player,
• 1:25:59
  I thought. And uh, yeah, Gabe Davis went to Jacksonville. That's
• 1:26:02
  it, it's Gaby. Yeah. So that so that was the that was.
• 1:26:05
  They also brought in Curtis Samuel. What they brought in Curtis Samuel.
• 1:26:11
  Oh, well yeah, I mean he's not bad. No, he's was
• 1:26:14
  he still washing? Yeah? Yeah, But anyway, I mean, are
• 1:26:18
  you are? They seem to be trending down and the first pick they have
• 1:26:23
  in the draft is what number twenty eight or something like that. It's not
• 1:26:27
  very I went to the championships, it's not very high. So it's in
• 1:26:30
  the late twenties, you know, for the for them to pick up,
• 1:26:32
  so they potentially I know that there. I know, I know that they're
• 1:26:36
  getting rid of the other money, and I know that Josh Allen needed to
• 1:26:40
  should have reconstructed, to restructured his contract to make room for those guys.
• 1:26:45
  I thought that. I thought that was the biggest news. I thought that
• 1:26:47
  was the biggest news. And I really think now. I think that the
• 1:26:50
  Texans. I thought the Steelers, and I think that even as high end
• 1:26:56
  as they are, I thought the Chiefs both them. Three teams selled in
• 1:27:00
  the f C as far as free agency, and I think that that's going
• 1:27:02
  to be the top three teams right there when it when it all said and
• 1:27:06
  done. I thought Baltimore backed off a little bit. You know, Pittsburgh
• 1:27:09
  got Queen that linebacker. We're talking about that. But you can only have
• 1:27:13
  the m v P. But I but I do think though that the man
• 1:27:16
  who changed football. But and then you've got Joe Burrow margin. You've got
• 1:27:19
  Joe Burrow back. You've got Joe Burrow back. You've got the Miami Dolphins
• 1:27:25
  losing players, so the team, I like, they don't. But Higgins
• 1:27:35
  is still a free agent, I believe. Yeah, I think he still
• 1:27:39
  is well and and maybe that's what the Bills look at. No, No,
• 1:27:43
  the Bills, the Bills, Josh Allen Whney. You're still preventing to
• 1:27:45
  Higgins from going there possible. But there's a ways to work around that.
• 1:27:48
  I mean, you see that all the time. Dead cap also is not
• 1:27:51
  good. Gotcha all right? Well, I wanted to bring up that.
• 1:27:55
  So that's get ready to ready to close up with. I'm just gonna say
• 1:28:00
  they need an entire new team front to back. I know they signed Jadeveon
• 1:28:06
  Clowney, but he's a little long in the tooth and he's gonna need somebody
• 1:28:12
  on the other side to help out. And now I know they signed to
• 1:28:15
  Ashan Robinson who's only two years three years younger than him, But still Jadeveon
• 1:28:23
  would have benefited going to a team who's whose defense had a couple of superstars
• 1:28:31
  on it, So that way he could he could who is the big guy
• 1:28:34
  they just signed? He worded the free agent the big defensive guy? Did
• 1:28:39
  he leave? They lost what's his nuts to a lot of money signing for
• 1:28:45
  guards? Though, if you see they lost New York Giants took one of
• 1:28:48
  their guys. Who was the big guy? Why am I not missing his
• 1:28:53
  name? The one that went to New York Giants? Yeah? Is that
• 1:28:56
  him? Hey, don't shut the door. Is that who they is?
• 1:29:00
  That who they lost? Yeah, he was a DN that went to New
• 1:29:04
  York Giants. There's not even known here anymore. Who is that guyts?
• 1:29:11
  Anyway that you know, Dave Canalis leaves, Tampa's offensive coordinator joins that's the
• 1:29:15
  new coach at Carolina. It's it's one of those things that they've spent.
• 1:29:20
  They obviously spent a lot of money on their line. Obviously that was a
• 1:29:24
  Bryce Young's their future quarterback wise, and and they think it's Brian Burns.
• 1:29:30
  Yeah, I could not the offensive line. Mark could not think who that
• 1:29:34
  was Brian Burns. But now I just I mean, they've they spent some
• 1:29:40
  money on the line, and that's good. Clowney, he's kind of a
• 1:29:43
  fill in. Essentially, they're only stuck for one years. I don't like
• 1:29:47
  Donic can sue contract with Tampa. Did you know one year guaranteed, we're
• 1:29:51
  gonna sign you for two et cetera, et cetera. Oh, and I
• 1:29:55
  know that they're trying to get obj In to come to UH to come to
• 1:29:59
  Miami. Which there's a guy who's who's done. He needs to be finished
• 1:30:02
  in his in his career is either injured or obj No, he didn't do
• 1:30:09
  anything last year with Baltimore. I mean, nobody's gonna sign him. I
• 1:30:13
  mean, well, they're trying to give him to Miami now more likely the
• 1:30:15
  guys they're trying like Tyreek Hill and then we're trying to give him to kind
• 1:30:17
  of Miami more than more than likely. I think Carolina doesn't have a first
• 1:30:24
  round pick, so they're gonna pick that's the Bears pick, right. No.
• 1:30:28
  Oh, and Derek Brown. Derek Brown, that was the other extension,
• 1:30:30
  the defensive tackle that wasn't a bad pick up. Of course it's one
• 1:30:33
  of his own, but you know that's why it's so strange how that trade
• 1:30:45
  went down. That you look at the Bears being the number one pick,
• 1:30:48
  and actually I put it up on the board, the board is erased.
• 1:30:51
  We're gonna have our sports allegedly Mont Draft coming soon. Me and Sean will
• 1:30:57
  get together and do our bit. Whoever gonna agree, we're gonna agree to
• 1:31:01
  a mock draft. That's gonna be tough. I guess it's just and to
• 1:31:06
  do that. So who's that looks like receivers who they're gonna take. Probably
• 1:31:13
  it's what they need. They need more than just a receiver. They need
• 1:31:18
  a running back, they need they need line help, they need defense,
• 1:31:23
  they need defense. I wouldn't I wouldn't be surprised if they're taking number one
• 1:31:29
  next year to they actually have that one, right, Yeah, I think
• 1:31:31
  that's that might be a pre guarantee between them and the Bears. Know the
• 1:31:38
  I guarantee. I don't know, you say, Caleb Williams, No,
• 1:31:41
  no, no, no, no, I'm not saying Cayleb. I'm saying
• 1:31:44
  I think I think the Bears are probably I'm going to go back and look
• 1:31:46
  in history, probably the best team to pick number one. You know,
• 1:31:50
  as far as what they've got coming back. Talent wise, they essentially could
• 1:31:55
  be well, let's say justin Fields again. No, they should never give
• 1:31:59
  him a well I agree with that because I don't like the kid coming in.
• 1:32:03
  I want some big Poenix or or I don't know if I'm so long
• 1:32:10
  about next right now, but I want that big penix. Well Nicks is
• 1:32:15
  falling. That's gonna ye, yeah, because there's gonna be a lot of
• 1:32:18
  teams that's gonna guys them. And you know what, and even Milton,
• 1:32:23
  Milton can throw a seventy yarder. I wouldn't touch that for I wouldn't either,
• 1:32:26
  But yeah, you know that's all right. It's moved to the Saints.
• 1:32:30
  Are we done with? You're just gonna be bad? I don't.
• 1:32:34
  I really don't know what to talk about. I mean, there are a
• 1:32:35
  bunch of no names. Their defense with Wilks at the time was not bad.
• 1:32:41
  They are a team of uh, you know, unknowns besides Clowny.
• 1:32:45
  I think Clowny is the biggest name on the team or in the quarterback Richard
• 1:32:48
  Sherman uh carry always yeah, Cyndy Lauper is that guy's name? Who the
• 1:32:57
  quarterback? Uh? Who for? Here for it's uh, I just said
• 1:33:05
  it. It's Alabama, kid. Well, I know it's in Alabama.
• 1:33:09
  Can I just can't think of his name? Why I can't either? I
• 1:33:12
  just went blank? My word? What is his name? But he's in
• 1:33:18
  Cleveland? Now, goodbye, everybody, Cleveland's time this is going downhill.
• 1:33:30
  Malcolm Brown what is his name? Already wasted my time on that wasted my
• 1:33:41
  time? All right, So, uh it looks like I'm gonna I know
• 1:33:45
  that they need linebacker help, which they got from Willie Gate Jr. Chase
• 1:33:50
  Young was a good pick up. Chase Young was a good pick up.
• 1:33:54
  They let Malcolm Roach go, so they had to replace They had to replace
• 1:34:00
  him, d n. But I don't know that Roach was. Billy Gabs
• 1:34:02
  in Kansas City is not a bad linebacker, even a guy who's half a
• 1:34:05
  year younger. Uh. I know that they need they need a running back,
• 1:34:12
  they need a quarterback. Okay, fourteen and forty five in round one
• 1:34:16
  and two, that's their picks. So they have they have the fourteenth pick,
• 1:34:19
  which is gonna be what have we seen on the marks with them?
• 1:34:24
  I'm you know what, I've never paid attention. They might be an offensive
• 1:34:27
  line No, Well, maybe because I know they need offensive line. Their
• 1:34:31
  offense is not that good, and they just let they just let Thomas go.
• 1:34:38
  He was you know, he's been in trouble. I think he just
• 1:34:40
  signed with the Dolphins, didn't they What's what's cars is? He got a
• 1:34:45
  high cap hit. I want to say he's kind of high they had.
• 1:34:49
  They were kind of insane. Tomorrow's the biggest which is their best player,
• 1:34:55
  Uh, Taysom Hill, which is their backup everything. They you know,
• 1:35:00
  they kind of there's Derek car there, he's only a twelve million dollar I
• 1:35:03
  kept it. But they got Cameron Jordans and you know, they that's what
• 1:35:08
  I said they needed. I forgot about Jordan He's actually pretty good. Yeah,
• 1:35:11
  they needed that other piece of defense. And then you get rid of
• 1:35:14
  roach and bring in uh whoever I just said young with to see Michael Thomas
• 1:35:21
  is gone, thank god, Which I don't think that's a big loss.
• 1:35:25
  He had one good year. It isn't It isn't what he was injured most
• 1:35:28
  of what two seasons ago year before he played most of the last year.
• 1:35:32
  Let's just said two seasons ago he was he was in They stunned Terry and
• 1:35:36
  Matthew. Uh So now they've got him taking a tackle in this mock draft.
• 1:35:43
  Yes, from Penn State. So I told you line they're gonna I
• 1:35:48
  guess he's a he's a budding star. Mm hmm. So you've got a
• 1:35:55
  wide receiver there. You know, watching them last year, I thought their
• 1:36:00
  defense was kind of a problem because they give up a lot of points in
• 1:36:02
  bad timing. And then you've got Derek Carr who helped give up Yeah,
• 1:36:08
  I know what I mean, I want to give that guy likes his props.
• 1:36:11
  And then I know and then and then I turn around and I watched
• 1:36:15
  him play. I'm like, damn it, what what are you doing?
• 1:36:17
  The mistakes? I think it's Allen's last year as the head coach. They're
• 1:36:20
  probably gonna fire him if he doesn't place. I didn't like it him as
• 1:36:27
  a choice. No, No, I think it was. She came over
• 1:36:31
  from Washington, twenty six year old lineback. I mean I would still put
• 1:36:36
  not huge, but I still put I still put the Saints in your backup?
• 1:36:43
  Is not Nathan Peterman? I still yeah, yes, yes, I
• 1:36:46
  still put them towards the bottom though them and the them and the Panthers.
• 1:36:50
  I'd put the Saints third right now, Yeah, I think I think sounds
• 1:36:57
  and they and they were in cat purgatory. They really were. It was
• 1:37:00
  a bad year for them. They had a lot of cat problems. And
• 1:37:03
  when you see teams that didn't really perform well or even make the playoffs and
• 1:37:06
  cat problems, you're like, oh my god, you know, what are
• 1:37:09
  they gonna do? But the Chase Young pickup I thought was really good.
• 1:37:13
  I mean, I think because it compliments Jordan's Yes, it does. It
• 1:37:16
  does. You know, You've got Willy Gay as your linebacker. So you
• 1:37:20
  look at what there so that you've got, Yeah, you got Dinnis Sounds
• 1:37:26
  a head coach. He's defensive, huge, huge defense. You look at
• 1:37:29
  that and you but you've got a car and that good when he was under
• 1:37:33
  You've got car unders. I mean they weren't horrible, but they were never
• 1:37:36
  You've got Carr and Kamaras, so you've got some offensive stars. Olave is
• 1:37:41
  a young star. You get lucky in the draft and you might be better.
• 1:37:44
  Let's move on to uh Atlanta. We'll talk about I know what you're
• 1:37:47
  saying for last, we'll talk about the Falcons. I know what you're saving
• 1:37:50
  for last horrible Hillbilly Well obviously one of the best that Florida Hill, one
• 1:37:56
  of the biggest free agent obviously pick ups in in the this offseason. Jake
• 1:38:00
  Cutler two point oh, it was Kirk Cousins. Jake Cutler two point oh.
• 1:38:03
  Now kirk Cousins at a mere thirty five and a half years old,
• 1:38:10
  thirty five and a half yeaes, oh my god, they paid him that
• 1:38:13
  much. Yeah, yeah, I was waiting for you to pull up that
• 1:38:15
  contract as us not even closed. Dude, is that is that a thing?
• 1:38:23
  Is that really? Jake Keler, it's Jake Titler point stats because I
• 1:38:27
  don't think that's even close. Here we go, Jacob kirk Cousins has better
• 1:38:31
  stats than Dak Prescott, who exactly guy's a winner? He's not? He
• 1:38:42
  is how many? That's my problem. I was getting ready to say that
• 1:38:45
  he's a regular season winner. Now you must admit, though, he's an
• 1:38:50
  improvement. Go back to the contract, because I forgot what money? Because
• 1:38:54
  it's ridiculously a million. Yeah, it's a four year hundred million and so
• 1:39:00
  oh three year one hundred and thirty potential out that's guaranteed total guaranteed. Is
• 1:39:06
  a hundred million. That's potential payout. But yes, for three years.
• 1:39:11
  So they pick up Mooney, who was in Chicago. He's okay. They
• 1:39:15
  already got some good h they got great London. Obviously, they got b
• 1:39:20
  John Robinson generational with the right offense. We'll see that this year. Oh
• 1:39:27
  you mean Zach Robinson A line that actually war former issue. Zach Robinson is
• 1:39:31
  the new defensive coordinator for Atlanta. I don't we'll quarterbacks. I want to
• 1:39:36
  go back to this John bullshit. It was it was never any good.
• 1:39:42
  Like like I said coming out, wasn't gonna be any good. He's had
• 1:39:46
  one year and he had anti hit. What's you called him? Generationally?
• 1:39:50
  He hat even played a game in the NFL. They fired the coach because
• 1:39:54
  they didn't use him wrong Arthur Smithson. Wait a minute, that's right,
• 1:40:05
  your new Bears coordinator. We need somebody and well Saints Tyrone Matthew, you
• 1:40:14
  know, respect him. He said, I didn't think the Falcons really used
• 1:40:16
  him. That was to come up. It is, what did you call
• 1:40:21
  that guy? Tyrone? Matthew? Tyrone isn' Tyrian. It ain't Tyrian.
• 1:40:28
  Tyrian stopped Tyron for one's get big. I know that they're they're they're looking
• 1:40:39
  for Smith tied end they lost. I don't think he mine. I don't
• 1:40:44
  think. Yes, they're going to do defensive line too. They're gonna be
• 1:40:48
  They're gonna be doing defense. That's probably what they're going to be doing now.
• 1:40:53
  They I just I like the offense setup if they can get a line,
• 1:40:57
  I really do. And I got them down to actual roster. What's
• 1:41:02
  their other roster? I like the guy the back of the other running No,
• 1:41:06
  go to their actual roster roster. What's the running You know, it
• 1:41:10
  shows you that all the salary, all the players currently. What is the
• 1:41:15
  other running back? Of course you got Pitts. I mean Pitts is one
• 1:41:17
  that's been talked about. No, he's still there and he's gonna be back
• 1:41:21
  down. You obviously got Drake on it. But what's the other running back?
• 1:41:26
  Where is he at? What is that guy's name? Taylor? Where's
• 1:41:30
  the other running backs? That's the guy that is looking to be him or
• 1:41:34
  Bijon? Now did I miss him? Yeah? I was gonna say the
• 1:41:41
  switch position. Who is that guy? Algier? Algier? Yes, yes,
• 1:41:46
  yes, yeah, Algier had a better season, freaking million dollar contract.
• 1:41:49
  That's why we didn't find him because we're looking at the contracts. Yes,
• 1:41:55
  yes, so Tyler had a good year that any of making seventeen million,
• 1:41:59
  they had it. He had a good year of the year. But
• 1:42:00
  now Jeers making well, that's his total contract because he was drafted high.
• 1:42:03
  Algier was not. So that's how that's what has to steal from the from
• 1:42:10
  the general fund. The player performance he did. He was the highest one.
• 1:42:15
  Yeah, read that they had to give him what he make about a
• 1:42:16
  million and a half. I guess probably see and forty and Iers are just
• 1:42:20
  doing him wrong to because he was number seven. No, but they're doing
• 1:42:24
  it wrong by not just giving him kicking that out and I mean, you
• 1:42:28
  should start rewarding your players for now rather than wait. I know, but
• 1:42:31
  but they're waiting on the change contract and they have to. I think that
• 1:42:36
  state. What do you think the Texans is doing? That's it's you got
• 1:42:40
  you got c J. Stroud right there. I mean, it's perfect,
• 1:42:43
  you can bring all them. But actually I think I think I think Atlanta
• 1:42:46
  is going to be much improved. I think simply because the coaching, the
• 1:42:50
  difference offensive philosophy. Rahee Morris has been a head coach before. He has
• 1:42:56
  not been. Uh what's Arthur Smith was never a coach. I think he
• 1:43:00
  is overwhelmed. I do, and and I thought they've made good hires.
• 1:43:02
  Zach Robinson quarterback coach for the Rams. I mean and obviously where heem came
• 1:43:06
  from the Rams former Tampa coach too, and he was blessed with one of
• 1:43:11
  the worst Tampa teams ever in his two years and was young too, So
• 1:43:15
  that shows you right there that he's got some talent. I think he's I
• 1:43:19
  think it was a great hire. I think it's a very underrated coaching higher
• 1:43:23
  for that team to be it is. But speaking of South Florida Rednecks,
• 1:43:29
  it's time for the Tampa Bay Well. Obviously, the biggest pickup was resigning
• 1:43:38
  was Baker Mayfield resigned him, you know, the big loss that we I
• 1:43:43
  mean Tampa. I looked at that. Tampa was a big all about taking
• 1:43:46
  care of who you got, now who's there? That was good. You
• 1:43:50
  know. I thought they brought Whitehead back from the Jets, sign him to
• 1:43:55
  a one year I mean it's two year, but he's only guaranteed for one
• 1:43:57
  year. I thought that was a great pickup. Leavonte David leadership sign him
• 1:44:00
  to a one year. I thought, Shaq Barrett leaving, no big deal.
• 1:44:04
  He's a little slower. I think they've got backup Lego. Yeah,
• 1:44:10
  no worries there Games Gregor Randy Gregory only and I thought, I joked,
• 1:44:15
  I thought, I said, if he stays healthy, he can be a
• 1:44:17
  good third down rusher, you know, because they've got him listed as an
• 1:44:21
  offensive linebacker. But essentially, but essentially they're going to bring him in as
• 1:44:26
  an end. Yeah. Well, I mean, but that's that's that whole,
• 1:44:28
  that's that position. Clil Max also listened as offensive linebacker, but you
• 1:44:32
  know it's Sean. It's one of those that the So that was just the
• 1:44:39
  just signed dropping down. Then go back to their actual roster right now,
• 1:44:44
  what they've got and what the cap hits are against the current roster, because
• 1:44:47
  obviously they brought Mike Williams back on a friendly deal. So Godwin's got the
• 1:44:51
  biggest yes, only only because right behind him. But you look, but
• 1:44:58
  you look at those active players at the base. I mean, Chris Godwin
• 1:45:01
  generally, I thought he was a little off last year comparable to what he
• 1:45:05
  was doing. But Winfield, they I think Winfield they free What is that
• 1:45:11
  called? What am I missing? Know? What they do when they do
• 1:45:15
  something to you in the franchise It was a franchise tag I believe on our
• 1:45:20
  next word one thousand dollars pyramids. I just have to think about that for
• 1:45:24
  a second. But where's Baker there? He is right there? Now?
• 1:45:30
  Is that current right now? Because where the Okay, okay, there's my
• 1:45:36
  dead cat twenty nine. Godwin's eating the most of your money right now,
• 1:45:41
  Godwin and Villa, Well, here's the deal. Wors isn't far behind man.
• 1:45:45
  He's getting ready to be a free agent too. So you think they're
• 1:45:48
  gonna let him go? God I hope because I think he's the best player
• 1:45:53
  position. I think he's one of the best tackles in the league. So
• 1:45:55
  I think it'd be going to go. Now. You look, probably white
• 1:45:58
  Head bringing back. But I think the key is is you're gonna have You've
• 1:46:00
  got white Is running back, and you improved the offensive line. There was
• 1:46:05
  some offensive line. I think the white guy is good. I think he
• 1:46:11
  is good enough to do it. They he is what is his first name?
• 1:46:17
  It's not for show, I think, but no, he yeah,
• 1:46:23
  it's for show. Right, No, they need a backup. I would
• 1:46:27
  I would go with that. Oh Edmonds they resigned, so he's okay,
• 1:46:30
  you go. Now they brought him over. Obviously there was a connection there
• 1:46:35
  from l A the Rams because of do you have one center? No,
• 1:46:45
  we're looking for another one. I think that was one that was eighteen cornerbacks
• 1:46:49
  and you know one center, the Liam Cohen new offensive coordinatory reguards. You
• 1:46:56
  know Liam Cohen. Liam Cohen was a coordinator at the Rams or first he
• 1:47:01
  started at Kentucky Will Levis, his best year, went to the Rams,
• 1:47:06
  and then came back to Kentucky last year. Liam Cohen's new offensive corner.
• 1:47:11
  I think that Palmer's good. But look at but but look at how cheap
• 1:47:15
  they are. I mean, you just have those you do special teams.
• 1:47:18
  Yeah, we gotta go. I still have to go with the offensive line.
• 1:47:21
  No, what they need you know, autos Okay at tight end or
• 1:47:26
  that's the improvement they need is the Yes, he's not gonna fall, but
• 1:47:33
  god, I would love that. It looks like we're probably gonna sign an
• 1:47:40
  offensive lineman in case Whurfs does leave, or they're going to do an edge
• 1:47:43
  wresser. It's kind of what I've seen on both, so anyway, i'd
• 1:47:48
  like, I mean, I'm gonna tell you right now and we'll talk about
• 1:47:50
  it later. As we get into pretections closer, it looks like Tampa and
• 1:47:54
  Atlanta is going to be fighting for the first spot, first and second,
• 1:47:57
  and then I would see the Saints coming in at third, and there's coming
• 1:48:00
  in and for It still is going to be one of the weaker divisions in
• 1:48:02
  the NFL, but top three very competitive. Just not uh, it gives
• 1:48:10
  you, It gives you a son that the Vikings and the Falcons will be
• 1:48:15
  a little better little stop stop, stop, stop stop. What was the
• 1:48:20
  record last year? They barely missed the playoffs? Think they want couldn't they
• 1:48:26
  have beat Tampa? Yes, that could have got in. So they've improved
• 1:48:31
  a quarterback. They went from Kirk Cousins to god the kid what is his
• 1:48:36
  name? I could see his face? Not Drake? What is it?
• 1:48:41
  Uh? What is the the old quarterback that played for Atlanta last year?
• 1:48:46
  Think a better Desmond Ridder And it was as ye, well, Kirk Cousins,
• 1:48:54
  Hank still there. I thought Hankey left here, you could have sor
• 1:48:58
  Hanky was still there? He left. I just looked at it, and
• 1:49:04
  of course when I searched that, it comes up Taylor Swift. So we'll
• 1:49:06
  do no, no, Taylor Swift. I like that. We'll talk about
• 1:49:10
  the Swifties and their battle of that ass and fantasy football. I guess he
• 1:49:15
  is. That's the same. Okay, he's not bad, No, he's
• 1:49:20
  really not. But I mean you're gonna take I mean, it's like the
• 1:49:24
  Vikings. I mean, they've got Donald Donald right now. I mean I
• 1:49:29
  know, but whenever, but whenever there's a Raiders quarterback, you think that's
• 1:49:33
  the main guy. That's it, that's it. Ohss, you don't know
• 1:49:39
  that that's that's it. I promise you. I can't find Oakland, but
• 1:49:46
  it's close to al No, it's the same. I mean, I don't
• 1:49:50
  really wouldn't change these names. No, I think that they're gonna be looking
• 1:49:55
  for quarterback. I think they're gonna be one that surprises everybody in the draft,
• 1:49:59
  be honest. Oh and they did bring in Gardner Minshew, Yeah,
• 1:50:01
  Gardner Minshew. That's who I told you. Somebody just went there. But
• 1:50:03
  I mean, it's who's the I mean, come on, is that really?
• 1:50:09
  Come on? Now? You're yelling at me. The Vikings and the
• 1:50:13
  Raiders are in deep ship with their quarterbacks. I'm just letting you know.
• 1:50:15
  It's a problem. And if they're gonna go this year as is, that
• 1:50:20
  means they're looking to draft next year who Minnesota and Oakland or Las Vegas.
• 1:50:28
  Yeah, I'm very confused. And that's a I think. Uh, I
• 1:50:32
  think Vegas is looking to pick up a quarterback on the cheap later though they've
• 1:50:38
  already got two cheaps. I don't know. Yeah, well that's what I'm
• 1:50:43
  saying. You're gonna watch them to do some crazy stuff in the draft,
• 1:50:45
  I think. And then obviously the Patriots because they have no quarterback right now?
• 1:50:49
  Who is their quarterback? For? Who? For the Patriots? They
• 1:50:54
  don't have one? No, well they we obviously they're drafting a quarterback.
• 1:50:59
  I don't have a star. Yeah, we know that they're drafting a quarterback.
• 1:51:02
  All right. That's all I've got for that. Like I said,
• 1:51:04
  I think the NFC South Sean, what haven't we done? What do we
• 1:51:09
  do we need? What is next? I race the board? Oh h
• 1:51:12
  it'll be uh it'll be a f C North, a f C North.
• 1:51:15
  Yeah, because that's how we're that's how we're doing it there, we go
• 1:51:17

• 1:51:20
