  Speaker 1: their fingers toes and lives intact. We are gonna have
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: fun today on the show. We got a lot to
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: talk about. Free agency is Oh wow, here's an alert.
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: Running back Careem Hunt is resigning with the Chiefs. So
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: that is breaking news right as I'm going on the air.
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: Kareem Hunt is resigning with the Kansas City Chiefs and
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: we'll be their running back. But let's go into an
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: NFL free agency. Since that happened, that was pretty crazy,
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: all right, So let's go into this and see where
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: everybody landed. Oh right, so let's look at first of all,
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: here's some released players that were released and where they went.
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: Davante Adams, wide receiver, signed a two year, forty six
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: million dollar deal with the Rams after being released by
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: the Jets. Joey Bosa defensive end signed a one year
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: deal twelve point six million dollars with the Bills after
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: being released by the Chargers on March fifth. Aaron Rodgers
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: was officially released by the Jets and became a free
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: agent on March twelfth. Still hasn't signed anywhere. Javon Hargrave,
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: defensive tackle, was released by the forty nine Ers on
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: March tenth. Signed a two year, thirty million dollar deal
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: with the Minnesota Vikings. Wide receiver Tyler Lockett released from
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: the Seahawks on March fifth, still a free agent. Jonathan Allen,
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: defensive tackle, signed a three years, sixty million dollars deal
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: with the Vikings after being released by the Commanders on
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: March seventh. Harold Laundry, the third linebackers, signed a three
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: year deal forty three point five million dollars with the
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: Patriots after being released by the Titans. And Cooper Cupp
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: was released by the Rams and is still a free
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: agent as of March twelfth when he got released. So
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: those are some guys that got released from their teams
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: in the last few weeks and signed right away with
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: a team or might still be free agents. Aaron Rodgers
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: is surprising me. Only because I believe if he's gonna play,
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: he would want to sign quick with somebody. But I
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: guess not so I guess he's either taking his time
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: or nobody's been interested. I know he was supposed to
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: be in calls with Pittsburgh and other teams. So let's
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: see where some of these top one hundred free agents landed.
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: Free agency obviously started the tampering period on Monday, and
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: on Wednesday you could officially sign. Chicago Bears made some
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: amazing moves in this offseason so far. We got a
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: new tight end, a new receiver, two new off three
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: new offensive linemen, and a defensive end. It is amazing.
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: The Bears have been spending the money, but they're doing
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: it strategically. They're not being stupid with it and just
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: going out and signing every big name that they can
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: find to try to see what sticks. They're actually going
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: for guys that they know can do something. But we'll
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: talk about that in a few minutes. Let's see where
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: some of these guys have went. Sam Darnold was with
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: the Vikings last year, and he signed with the Seahawks
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: on a three year deal for one hundred point five million.
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: My thing is why would Minnesota, who literally just made
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: the playoffs and had the one of the best records
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: in the NFL. Not the best record, that was Detroit,
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: but they were close. They were riding side by side
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: with Detroit for a long time in the division. Why
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: would you get rid of Sam Darnold who's twenty seven
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: years old. Why would you do that? He had an
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: amazing season for you. Why would you do that? Like,
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: is JJ McCarthy ready? He missed his entire rookie year.
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: You're just gonna throw JJ out there and just hope
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: he sticks Because I'm sorry, as much of a JJ
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: McCarthy fan I am from Michigan, Okay, being a diehard
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: Wolverine fan, there is nothing to me that says that
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: he can lead that team into a division title right
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: now his first real year. He's a second year player
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: who's technically a rookie. Okay, we know this. Sam Donald
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: should have stayed at least one or two more years
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: with them to see when JJ will be ready. If
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: I were them, I would have gave him a big
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: contract for at least two years just to see what
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: would happen. Because worst case, Sam Donald leaves at twenty
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: nine he still can go sign a really lucrative deal
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: somewhere else. Now Seattle's got him, and now he's gonna
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: do with the Seahawks what he did last year with Minnesota.
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: I'm telling you now, Minnesota is gonna be at the
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: bottom of the barrel this year. JJ McCarthy, coming off
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: of an injury like he had, is now ready to
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: lead that team. The Vikings will be last place in
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: the division. That division is gonna be fought for between Detroit, Chicago,
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: and Green Bay in that order. It's still Detroit's right
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: now until we see what Ben Johnson does. But I
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: can guarantee Ben Johnson is going to do way better
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: than Matt Lafleur because he's already owned him before. So
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: and we already beat Matt Lafleur in the last game,
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: which means that we're one up on him already, and
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: now with a new coach that's beating them, we know
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: we can win. Let's move on. We got T Higgins
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: staying with the Bengals on a franchise tag one year,
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: twenty six point two million. Josh Sweat, he was somebody
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: that kind of wanted in Chicago. He was from Philly.
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: He signed with the Cardinals on a four year, seventy
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: six point four million dollar deal. Trace Smith, the guard
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: that everybody in Chicago wanted, went on a franchise tag
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: with Kansas City for one year twenty three point four million.
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: Rodnie stan Lee, thirty year old offensive tackle from Baltimore,
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: stayed with Baltimore on a three year sixty million dollar deal.
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: Milton Williams, defensive lineman from Philly, went to New England
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: on a four year, one hundred and four million dollar contract.
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: This is my guy. I love him. I'm glad he
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: came out to Chicago. I've been watching him with Atlanta
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: this year because I knew that we were looking for
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: a new center. I saw a film on him. Amazing center.
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: Drew Dolman is a Chicago Bear. At twenty six years old.
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: He is going to be the best center we've had
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: since Cruits and Garza. Amazing three years, forty two million
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: dollar deal. Came from Atlanta. Signed with Chicago. Dj Reed,
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: corner corner out of the Jets, signed with the Detroit
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: Lions at a three year, forty eight million dollar deal.
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: Javon Holland, safety out of Miami, signed with the New
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: York Giants on a three year forty five million dollar deal.
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: Let's see. Chris Godwin is staying with the Bucks on
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: a three year sixty six million dollar deal. Carlton Davis
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: Corner out of Detroit is going to New England on
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: a three year sixty million dollar dollar deal. Nick Bolton,
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: no relation to Michael Bolton, staying with the Kansas City
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: Chiefs on a three year forty five million dollar deal.
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: Let's see. Looking at the list to see if there's
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: any other really big ones. Khalil Mack is staying with
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: the Kids, not Kansas City, with the Chargers on a
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: one year, eighteen million dollar deal. They're keeping him year
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: to year, I think because he's at the age where
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: he can retire at any time, so they're just doing
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: a one year deal here and there for him. Tevin
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: Jenkins is still out there. He was from the Bears.
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: He's still out there right now. Byron Murphy corner out
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: of Minnesota is gonna stay with the Vikings on a
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: three year sixty six million dollar deal. Let's see. I'm
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: looking through the list. I'm just looking for the bigger names,
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: but a lot of the big names are done. Running
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: back Rico o'dowdell is going from the Cowboys to the
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: Panthers on a one year, six point twenty five million
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: dollar deal. Let's see Ryan Kelly Center out of the
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: Colts decided to sign a two year, eighteen million dollar
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: deal with the Vikings. Aaron Jones, running back for the Vikings,
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: just signed back with them on it last night, on
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: a two year twenty million dollar deal. Amari Cooper's still
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: out there from Buffalo. He's not with anybody yet. I'm
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: actually surprised by that, to be honest. DeMarcus Lawrence Edge
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: out of the Cowboys went with the Seattle Seahawks on
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: a three year forty two million dollar deal. Chase Young,
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: we were hoping to get him to twenty five year old
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: Edge out of the Saints decided to stay with the
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: Saints on a three year fifty one million dollar deal.
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: Let's see Justin Fields, this is the big one, went
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: from Pittsburgh to the Jets on a two year forty
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: million dollar deal. My boy Justin got paid. That's awesome.
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: I'm glad for him. I hope he has a good career.
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: I don't wish bad on any former Bears players if
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: they don't work out here in Chicago. Then I'm happy
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: for them to go somewhere else and work out somewhere
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: else it happens. Let's see Stefan Diggs still out there
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: as a free agent. Let's see who's still out there.
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: Justin Sibbons, a safety out of Atlanta. Zach Ertz signed
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: a one year, six point two five million dollar deal
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: to stay in Washington with the Commanders. Let's see Mike Joseki,
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: a tight end from the Bengals, stayed with the Bengals
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: out a three year, twenty five million dollar deal. Darius
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: Slayton is staying with New York on a three year
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: thirty six million dollar deal. Mar Mark Keith Brown is
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: staying with the Chiefs on a one year, eleven million
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: dollar deal. I'm surprised that a guy at twenty seven
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: will only do a one year deal with the team
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: amazes me. I mean, if it's a franchise tagl there's
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: none you can do but to stay on a one
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: year deal at the age of twenty seven, Like I feel,
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: by that point he should have proved himself enough for
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: a three or four year deal, and if he didn't,
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: then what are you keeping him for? Najie Harris left
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: Pittsburgh and went to the Chargers on a one year,
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: nine point five million dollar deal. Let's see, Keenan Allen
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: is still out there. Who else we got? Xavier was
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: not the WWE star, but the football star safety out
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: of Carolina went to Tennessee out a two year, ten
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: million dollar deal. Russell Wilson is still out there. Russell
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: Wilson is surprising me, and so is Aaron Rodgers. Two
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: decent quarterbacks still out there. Let's see. Chicago Bears got
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: Edge Dale out of bingo or out of a diabo.
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: I look, you know he's gonna be a Bear for
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: three years. We'll learn his name. Twenty five year old
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: Edge from the Colts is now a Chicago Bear. I'm excited.
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: Though I watched his interview it was amazing. I will
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: learn how to say his name. Coleman Shelton, the Bears center,
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: went to la on a two year to be determined deal.
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: That doesn't sound good. And DeAndre Hopkins left Kansas City
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: to go on a one year deal for six million
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: dollars with the Baltimore Ravens. So those are some of
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: your top one hundred free agents and where they ended
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: up going Chicago Bears. Made some great moves. We're gonna
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: talk more about it next week. I'm gonna go into
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: finding out some big facts about these guys. Plus I
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: want to see if the Bears get any more free
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: agents in the next couple of days. But free agent
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: period's pretty much ending pretty soon now. A lot of
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: these guys that now are gonna be they're gonna be
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: preparing for the draft. The nice thing about what we
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: ended up getting is now our draft board is wide open.
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: We can go a running back like Ashton Gent. We
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: could go another offensive lineman, we could go another defensive ender, lineman,
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: we can go, we can go on a corner. We
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: can go anywhere we want on the board for our
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: draft picks. And that is the next big thing is
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: the end of April. We got the NFL Draft. I'm excited.
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: I think everybody is ready to go with this and
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: see what we get. I think that I'm happy with
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: what we've done. If we don't make any more free
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: agent moves, I am happy with that because I feel
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: like we got what we needed out of that. Now
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: we go to the left and what we don't get
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: in the draft, you can go back into the free
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: agent pool and see what's left of who's in there
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: or who gets released later, and you can still pick
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: up more guys because remember two, once the preseason starts
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: and training camp, more guys will get cut who they
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: may not be a fit for those teams. I hope
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: people say, but Robbie g why would you want somebody
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: that got cut that couldn't make the team in training camp?
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: Because they may not have been a fit for that team,
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: but will be a fit for yours. It could be
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: the coaching that they're getting on that other team. Maybe
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: they weren't good enough there, but maybe somebody like you know,
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: Ryan Poles, you know and stuff like that. Maybe them
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: him plus the coaching. I mean, you've got great coaching
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: and Ben Johnson, you got a great coach on defense
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: and Dennis Allen. So now we look at both sides
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: of the offense defense. You know who you want. Special
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: teams coaches they know who they like. They may see
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: a guy who is a fast receiver but doesn't do
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: good at catching the ball like that, But your special
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: teams coordinator might say he would be fast as a
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: punt returner or a kick returner. So I want to
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: try him out at that. When people say, oh, well,
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: this team signs too many receivers, as I saw somebody
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: post that yesterday night on Facebook, oh they get too
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: many receivers. What you don't understand is your receivers that
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: you're getting, that you're picking up aren't just to be receivers.
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: Your receivers can also be special teams guys, punt returners,
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: kick returners. So you know, you got to realize that too.
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: Like all these people don't understand football, there's more on
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: the field than just your offense and your defense. Your
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: special teams need people too, and a lot of times
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: you don't want to use your first string guys to
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: be punt and kick returners. You want to get guys
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: who are just good at that. When Devin Hester started,
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: he was just a kick returner. They tried him at
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: wide receiver, but he was a kick returner, and I
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: believe moving him to wide receiver was a bad mistake
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: by Lovey Smith. I think he should have kept him
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: as a as a kick returner because now you're putting
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: more work on his legs. I would rather save his
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: legs for kicking punts than use him just all the
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: time as a wide receiver. So people need to learn
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: why certain things happen in football. But that's it. Well,
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: let's talk about something else. Now, let's go into some
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: NBA talk. This is gonna be a good one. Buckle up.
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: So the NBA, this is what I wanted to talk about.
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: This isn't anything that has to do with standings. We're
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: gonna wait another couple of weeks before we really start
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: going into NBA stand because at this point, you know,
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: we got a couple of weeks until the end of
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: the season starts, so we'll start talking about it probably
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: first week in April as we get to like two
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: weeks left on the season. What I want to talk
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: about is defense, And oh my god, I swear, so
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: I go on DraftKings, I make bets on football, basketball,
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: you know, stuff like that. I haven't tried baseball. I
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: tried hockey. Didn't do too great with that, but I
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: never tried I do. I do. I do NBA and
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: once in a while I do okay at it. But
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: the problem is defense. Okay, I feel like the NBA
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: just has no defense anymore. Like I remember in the nineties,
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: like it was lockdown defense. NBA teams just playing rough
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: and tough on defense, the bad boy Pistons against the Bulls,
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: knocking Michael Jordan down. He didn't get the foul calls
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: all the time because they let him play. Okay, now
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: these guys are so worried about filing out of games
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: because everything is a foul. Last weekend I bet on
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: the Denver Nuggets game and they were playing Oklahoma City Thunder.
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: Both teams are decent. The Thunder is first place, and
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: I think Denver is like right behind them. So I thought, Okay,
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: Denver does have a chance because it's they're close. They
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: want to win more games so they could try to
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: get that number one spot. They came out of halftime,
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: it was only like a three point lead for Oklahoma
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: City at that point. They came out and had six
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: fouls in the first three minutes of the third quarter.
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: By the nine minute mark, they were already in the
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: penalty for the rest of the quarter. I was just like, whoa,
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: And maybe this is why teams don't play a lot
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: of defense because they're afraid they're just gonna get fouls
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: all the time. I mean, sometimes I feel like Adam
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: Silver needs to just let them play and I get it.
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: You know, some fouls you gotta call, But a little
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: tiny slap on the wrist when they're going up to
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: block a shot, you're not gonna always not be able
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: to do it. And to call fouls out of every
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: it slows the game down and it bores the fans.
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: Like Jordan had to be like literally molested by guys
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: to get good foul calls. Back in the day, Jordan
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: went to the Jordan went to the line. Don't get
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: me wrong, Kobe went to the line. But they did
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: not go to the line as much as these guys do. Now,
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: my other big beef, and this all came from from
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: betting we had. We have grade a beef right now
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: with Zach Levine and DeMar de Rosen. I literally only
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: needed them to score twenty three points in the game each,
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: okay against a playoff contending team when they are going
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: for a playoff spot. So you think that the two
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: superstars of the team who came from another team where
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: they were the superstars, could put up twenty three each.
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: I at one point would have taken either one of
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: them because I did a pick six on DraftKings, where
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: you pick six players and you pick the over under, Well,
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: they get over twenty three or under twenty three gives
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: you a number. You can do it for points, rebounds, assists.
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: So I did it for points for them. Think it
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: at least one of the two gotta get it, because
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: with the pick six, you only to get the full jackpot,
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: which is usually eight hundred dollars. If you bet ten dollars,
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: it's like an eight hundred dollars pot if you pick
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: all of If you pick all eight, you get eight
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: hundred dollars. Okay, if you pick if seven of them hit,
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: you get thirty dollars. Great eight, but you get twenty
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: dollars extra from what you bet. Okay. Cool. If you
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: can get six out of the eight, you get ten
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: dollars back, so you get your money back. I don't
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: know if you. I think you get whatever you put in.
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: So I just stay ten because that's what I bet. Now,
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: if you bet like fifty, you probably get your fifty back,
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: because I'm thinking that's how they do it. So anyway,
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: I was like, Okay, at least one of them gotta
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: get it. One of them's gotta get to twenty three.
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: Had one of them gotten to twenty three, I would
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: have won my ten dollars back I missed. I guessed
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: five out of eight. Two of them were Demarta Rosan
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: and zach Levine. Zach Lavine had seventeen points and Demarta
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: Rosan had thirteen. How do you call yourself superstars? I
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: get players have bad games, but how often did Jordan
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: and Pippen get less than twenty points in a game
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: in a game of the season, especially towards the end
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: when it really counted. It got to the point Sacramento
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: was down by so much they pulled the players out
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: like five minutes left, and then I knew I was
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: done because I think had they been in that last
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: five minutes, at least one of them. I don't know
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: what to say. I feel that if I feel that,
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: if you're a superstar player, there's no reason to get
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: less than twenty three points in a game, especially in
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: an important game. And I'm not saying that even against
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: the band teams not important, but it's very important against
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: playoff contending teams. When you're this close to the playoffs.
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: We're literally like a month away from the NBA playoffs
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: starting in the middle of April. This is the crunch
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: time now for these teams to go out there and
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: do it. That's my beef with the NBA. No defense
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: and these players just not giving a shit anymore. As
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: that's how I feel. I feel like a lot of
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: these teams, these players just don't care like they used
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: to care. They get these big deals with guaranteed money,
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: and they're like, well, if I have an off game,
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: it's no big deal. It is a big deal. It's
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: a very big deal. Not just because I could have
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: won eight hundred dollars if all of them got it right,
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: but just the fact that this is what you should
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: do for your team, for your fans that pay money
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: to go see you and buy your jerseys. I'm wearing
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: my DeMar DeRozan is in jersey still because I like
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: him as a player, but he really let me down
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: in that game. The fact that he only got thirteen
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: points in a big game. Why go to the basket more,
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: go to the line at least at least you get
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: free throws there. If you can't, if you're if you're
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: taking a few threes and you're missing, try to the basket.
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: These players are allergic to driving to baskets. It's like
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: a lot of three pointers and I just don't understand why,
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: because guys hit threes back in the day. Not saying
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: they didn't, but I feel like it's just three after three.
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: After three, you're down by six with ten minutes left.
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: You don't have to throw up threes. Go to the basket,
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: get fouled, make a layup, dunk the ball if you miss,
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: at least you really try to get fouled to get
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: to the line to have two free throws. You're down six,
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: even if you're down ten, you it's five baskets. It's
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: five to two point baskets. If you score a basket,
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: come back down, play defense, get the ball back and
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: score again. Boom, you got it. I just don't get it.
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: I don't understand it. Maybe it's just me, but I
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: don't know. But that's it. That's there for the NBA
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: talk because is making me mad again. I'm bringing up
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: old things that made me mad back then. All right,
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: last thing we're gonna talk about in sports before we
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: switch over to entertainment is WrestleMania coming up. We had
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: the last pay per view before WrestleMania with Elimination Chamber
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: last weekend or a couple of weeks ago, and I'm
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: telling you now it was huge, John Cena, what the
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: heel turned. But now let's go over some possible WrestleMania predictions,
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: and let's see if any of these are gonna come
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: to fruition. And I think they were because one of
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: the matches i'll tell you about in a minute. I'll
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: tell you guys about in a second. We'll talk about
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: it now. Remember WrestleMania is a two night event, so
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: there's plenty of days for this too, for you know,
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: these kind of matches. And I think we're gonna have
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: a big card this year. According to this card that
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: I'm seeing, there's two four, six, eight, ten, twelve, fourteen matches.
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: That would be seven a night. That's not bad. And
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: you know, Triple H goes for like the five a
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: night for like the smaller pay per views. But this
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: is WrestleMania. You gotta make it big. These fans want
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: to be there, they want to sit. Seven matches you
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: could probably be done in like three three and a
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: half hours if you really pushed it. You could probably
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: do about three and a half to four hours a night,
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: and the fans will love it. It's WrestleMania. This is
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: that time WrestleMania SummerSlam to do your big matches. So
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: here's matches that are guaranteed or ones that are rumored
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: and I think are gonna happen. We'll talk about each one.
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: We already know John Cena and Cody Rhodes that matches set.
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: Sino won the Elimination Chamber. He's gonna be the man
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: taking on Cody Rhodes, Jay Ouso the Royal Rumbo winner
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: versus Gunther. We already know Tiffany Stratton putting her strap
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: on the line against the Royal Rumbo winner Charlotte Flair.
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: And of course now we know that EO Sky will
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: face off against Biako, but there could be a twist. Yeah,
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: we haven't seen yet. I think that's gonna go. Rha Ripley,
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: EO Sky and Bianca. I think you need a little
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: more star not that Bianca can't hold the match with EO,
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: but you gotta have a little more star power. This
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: is WrestleMania. Really doesn't have really anything going into WrestleMania,
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: and she's one of your big acts, so definitely we
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: need to see Ria Ripley in that match. I'm still
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: all for Bianca winning it and take the strap off
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: of EO that quick. I think EO Sky is just
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: a holder until Bianca wins it, but I think that
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: it would be cool to see that. Other matches, I
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: think we're gonna see this is a This is a
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: definite see them Punk South Islands and Roman Reigns. After
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: Roman Reigns pulled South Allans out of the cage and
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: souther Allands won the match, and then he stomped them,
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: and then Paul Hayman Huggins see them Punk and that
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: he spirits them Punk. We're definitely gonna have a triple
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: threat match now here is what I want to see happen.
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: I want that to be a number one contenders match
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: for the champion one of the championships. I don't know
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: how they're gonna do it because technically Seth and Punk
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: are on Raw and Romana is on SmackDown, so technically
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: it would be kind of weird. They could do it
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: where whatever whoever wins, it's whatever show title you have.
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: So if Roman wins it, he could go after you know,
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: Roman could go after Cody Rhodes or John Cena. If
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: Seth or Saam Punk win, Gunther or jay usso, so yeah,
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: we'll see how that happens. But I think that match
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: is definitely gonna be made official by Adam Pierce, Jacob
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: Fatu and Solo Socoa. That is a definite. These two
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: are gonna come to a head by wrestle Media. We
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: had about what five weeks left until WrestleMania, so yeah,
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: I can definitely see that happening. Hold on one second, alright,
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: so yeah, I think they're gonna definitely make that match
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: official too. Let's see what else. Kevin Owens and Randy Orton.
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: I think that's a definite matchup. We're definitely gonna have that.
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: Let's see Damien Priest and Drew McIntyre not too excited
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: about it. I think they're just kind of doing it
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: because both of them need to be there. I don't
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: really think there's a great reason for that match. But
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: we'll see Bailey taking on what's that girl's name from
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: that xt Roxane Perez. I think that's rox and Perez.
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: That'd be kind of cool. I would like that. A
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: lot of these are just filler matches. I mean, obviously, WrestleMania,
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: you go big, there's gonna be lots of matches. You know,
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: some will make sense, some won't Naomi and Jade Cargill. Definitely,
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: they need to. They need to wrestle each other at
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: Wrestle Media. That's the culmination of this whole thing. The
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: only thing is Bianca I think would have fit better
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: in the storyline during the match, but with her, excuse me,
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: with her having a match, she can't really do much
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: in that one. Let's see Livin Raquel versus Alexa Bliss
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: and I don't know who. I don't even see somebody there.
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: Oh is that Nikki Cross. Oh that'd be cool. That'd
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: be cool. I like that, that'd be cool. For the
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: tag team titles, Let's see Logan Paul and aj Styles.
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: That's definitely gonna happen. Let's see the tag team titles.
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: Looks like we've got the Motor City machine Guns, the
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: Street Profits DIY pretty deadly, and there's another team I
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: don't know who they are. Five tags to five tag teams? Wait, one, two, three, four? Yeah,
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: five tag teams for the tag team titles and then
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: the intercontinental title bron breaker. I see Seamus, I see
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: Pete Dunn, Penta, Finnbaaler and the guy Ludwig Kaiser. Yeah.
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: For the inter Continental title. Make that. If you're gonna
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: do it, triple h make it a ladder match. Let's
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: bring back the IC title ladder match, because we want
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: to see that. We love those matches. Those were like
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: the best Russell Media matches. You could do the tag
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: titles like that too, that'd be cool. One on each night,
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: do the tag team titles in a ladder match and
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: then that that'll be cool. I would love that. But
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: it's a good card, and I hope this happens all.
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: I think a lot of them will well, they may
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: not do fourteen matches, they might do twelve, and they'll
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: pick from this list. Maybe a few will be on
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: Rawn SmackDown or on SmackDown the night before. You know,
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: obviously your big matches are gonna be on the card,
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: but maybe you do Jade and Naomi the night before
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: WrestleMania on SmackDown. And if you don't want to throw
• 35:21
  Speaker 1: them in, some of these have to be on there though.
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: And I think seven matches on each night will be good.
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: It's gonna be at least a good four hour paper.
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: You six to ten. Where are they at? They're gonna
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: be in Vegas. Vegas is two hours behind everybody, so
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: two hours on the Midwest and three hours on the
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: East coast. So there you go. I would actually like
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: that if they did that because they could start at
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: If they start at six, it would start at four
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: and then a four hour of that would be over
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: by eight o'clock for the wrestlers, they would get to
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: go home, all right. So that is it for our
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: sports talk. So if you just listen it at my
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: show for the sports, that's it. It's done. I'm going
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: into my entertainment stick around, and let's talk about some entertainment.
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: I want to talk about the movie Fast eleven. It's
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: going to be filming soon. There's been reports that Vin
• 36:13
  Speaker 1: Diiezel said it was already filming a little bit. I
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: don't think so, because I haven't seen anything about it
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: being but it says pre production, so it doesn't say filming.
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: But here we go, so Fast eleven. There's rumors about
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: Cody Walker coming back to play the character of Brian O'Connor,
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: who was the late Paul Walker's character in the movie.
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: Here's where the Fast saga I believe went wrong. And
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: I've been saying this for a long time. Okay, I
• 36:49
  Speaker 1: love the ending. I thought it was cool with them
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: staring each other down and smiling at each other. You know,
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: it was cool with to see you again and everything
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: one thing. And I love the end with the fork
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: in the road. Vin Diesel won one way, Paul Walker
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: went the other way. It was cool. It was a
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: good ending. But to make sense for the movies, I
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: believe Paul Walker should have died in that movie. Brian
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: O'Connor should have passed away in that movie in some form,
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: whether I mean, you could have did it in other
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: ways than a car crash. And I get people would say, well,
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: if he dies in a car crash, he died in
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: a car crash in real life. That's gonna be really
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: bad and people aren't gonna like it. Okay, it's an
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: action movie. He could have died getting shot. There's like
• 37:41
  Speaker 1: millions of ways they could have killed this character off
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: in that movie. Because here's the conundrum that you're in.
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: He has to be in the finale movie if he's alive. Okay,
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: his character has to be there because his character was
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: a huge role in all all those movies leading up
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: to when he died in real life. So you can't
• 38:05
  Speaker 1: have an ending with al Brian O'Connor there if he's
• 38:09
  Speaker 1: still alive. You're telling me a guy who spent his
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: entire life saving Vin Diesel's character and his wife's character
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: go from being a cop to being a criminal, back
• 38:22
  Speaker 1: to being a cop, back to being a criminal again.
• 38:26
  Speaker 1: You're telling you're telling me that he could just retire
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: and never come back to help them again when they're
• 38:33
  Speaker 1: in trouble, and the way it's gonna end would have
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: to be like a big, huge trouble that they get
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: in to end the movie. So you're telling me he
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: ain't gonna come back. In real life, if this were
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: a real life saga, the person wouldn't come back to
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: save their family, especially if his wife Mia isn't it,
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: which she will be because she's a big part of
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: that franchise. You're telling me that he would not come back,
• 39:05
  Speaker 1: so he has to be there. So now what you
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: did was you put it in a position where now
• 39:10
  Speaker 1: we have to see a cgi Brian O'Connor with his
• 39:14
  Speaker 1: brother playing the role. Not that I'm complaining, because I
• 39:19
  Speaker 1: love Paul Walker, one of my favorite actors of all time.
• 39:22
  Speaker 1: But you're telling me, now we gotta see this, and
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: we got to do it. This way, because yeah, you
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: have to he has to be in the finale now.
• 39:36
  Speaker 1: So if you would have killed his character off, there
• 39:38
  Speaker 1: would have been no way to write him into the
• 39:40
  Speaker 1: finale except for maybe some images like they did in
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: the last movie where they showed some images of him
• 39:47
  Speaker 1: and stuff, But like, as for him being physically in
• 39:50
  Speaker 1: the movie, you wouldn't have to have him be in there. Yeah,
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: I you know, like I said, they should have just
• 39:59
  Speaker 1: did what I thought they should have did, and I
• 40:01
  Speaker 1: would have been happy with it. They could have killed
• 40:04
  Speaker 1: them off in any way. It didn't have to be
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: a car accident. It could have just been, you know,
• 40:14
  Speaker 1: a gunshot wound by one of the criminals, and that
• 40:18
  Speaker 1: would have made Vin DE'SI even more mad. That could
• 40:22
  Speaker 1: have made for a better movie. I don't know. But
• 40:25
  Speaker 1: we're talking about a movie that sent people, two people
• 40:28
  Speaker 1: into space in their car, So you know, we're we're
• 40:32
  Speaker 1: not really going for like the big like, oh, this
• 40:35
  Speaker 1: isn't a shocker that they're doing this. No, we're not
• 40:38
  Speaker 1: shocked at all by that. But yeah, so I can't
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: wait for it to come out. I want to see
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: how it ends. I love the fast movies, but I'm
• 40:46
  Speaker 1: glad it's ending because I feel like, you know, you
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: could do another Hobs and Shaw. You may even be
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: able to do a movie with like Luda and ty
• 40:55
  Speaker 1: Reese together with their characters. I think it'd be funny
• 40:58
  Speaker 1: to see Roman and Teje in a movie together. I
• 41:01
  Speaker 1: think it'd be funny. You know, there's ways to do
• 41:04
  Speaker 1: all that. But as for Fast to Fast saga, it
• 41:07
  Speaker 1: just needs to go now. After this just be done
• 41:12
  Speaker 1: because you're really running out of things to do with it.
• 41:16
  Speaker 1: So I mean, at this point, you just gotta go
• 41:24
  Speaker 1: and you just gotta end it the way it needs
• 41:26
  Speaker 1: to end, and I hope it's a happy ending. I
• 41:29
  Speaker 1: hope all of them have one last big familia dinner
• 41:33
  Speaker 1: around Down's table in La. I'm hoping that happens. But
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: we'll see. Maybe they'll kill tom Off and that'll really
• 41:41
  Speaker 1: make it so though it's never gonna be another movie,
• 41:44
  Speaker 1: you know, I don't know, we'll see what happens. But yeah,
• 41:47
  Speaker 1: so that's it for that. I mean, this is just
• 41:49
  Speaker 1: what my thoughts were when I was reading it. I
• 41:51
  Speaker 1: actually wasn't even gonna talk about that. It just happened
• 41:55
  Speaker 1: because I saw the story at four o'clock in the
• 41:57
  Speaker 1: morning last night before I went to bed, I saw
• 42:00
  Speaker 1: that story and I'm like, I gotta talk about this
• 42:02
  Speaker 1: because I don't know if I'm a huge fan of it.
• 42:04
  Speaker 1: I mean, obviously I'll see it, but yeah, I wasn't
• 42:07
  Speaker 1: too big on that. So Lallapaluza announces their big reveal
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: next Tuesday on all the bands and artists that are
• 42:15
  Speaker 1: gonna be at Lollapalooza in Grand Park in Chicago this year.
• 42:19
  Speaker 1: I'm excited for that. We'll have the full list for
• 42:23
  Speaker 1: you guys next Friday when I do my show or Thursday,
• 42:26
  Speaker 1: whichever day I do it. So we'll talk about that.
• 42:29
  Speaker 1: But right now, let's go over some predictions of who
• 42:31
  Speaker 1: they think maybe at Lollapaluza this year from different genres
• 42:37
  Speaker 1: of music. And some of these are pretty big names.
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: I was actually very shocked by it, but they do
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: get very big names at Lollapalooza, because I mean, we've
• 42:45
  Speaker 1: had Metallica, We've had Green Day, you know, at a Lollapalooza,
• 42:50
  Speaker 1: So I mean we do get some big ones. Okay,
• 42:53
  Speaker 1: So Lollapalooza's confirmed her return to Grand Park this summer.
• 42:56
  Speaker 1: Lineup is expected to be announced next Tuesday. I already
• 42:59
  Speaker 1: got the text message saying it was so I get
• 43:02
  Speaker 1: like the lot of stuff updates on my phone, so
• 43:05
  Speaker 1: we will definitely get to see who's going to be
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: doing it. It's become a tradition for fans to guess
• 43:13
  Speaker 1: who they think is going to be headlining the festival
• 43:16
  Speaker 1: based on clues like touring dates, album releases, and other
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: musical festival lineups. The funny thing is the reason I
• 43:22
  Speaker 1: knew last year that Blink one eighty two was going
• 43:25
  Speaker 1: to be at Lollapalooza was because they were on tour
• 43:28
  Speaker 1: at the time when they were going to be here,
• 43:31
  Speaker 1: and they had a date in Milwaukee the day before,
• 43:35
  Speaker 1: and then on a Monday, they were going to Minnesota
• 43:40
  Speaker 1: while Chicago wasn't on the list, and we all know
• 43:44
  Speaker 1: that Chicago was a big stop for all big bands
• 43:49
  Speaker 1: to be here, and so I was just like, damn,
• 43:54
  Speaker 1: they're gonna be at Lollapalooza, and sure enough they were.
• 43:57
  Speaker 1: So that's why fans can do that. They can kind
• 43:59
  Speaker 1: of tour dates, music album releases, and they kind of
• 44:03
  Speaker 1: put it together like they're gonna be there. Let's see.
• 44:07
  Speaker 1: Some artists are too big to play the festival in
• 44:09
  Speaker 1: Grand Park, which draws over fifty thousand attendees, a show
• 44:13
  Speaker 1: that includes Beyonce, Beyonce, Taylor Swift and Bad Bunny, neither
• 44:17
  Speaker 1: of those three of I don't think I've ever been
• 44:19
  Speaker 1: at a lallapalooza, but they should. I mean, it's a
• 44:23
  Speaker 1: big concert, it's huge. Why wouldn't you want to be there?
• 44:28
  Speaker 1: Like seriously, Like I get that you're big. You're this
• 44:31
  Speaker 1: big country star now. Beyonce, which I mean to me,
• 44:36
  Speaker 1: she's not a real country singer, but you should be there.
• 44:40
  Speaker 1: Taylor Swift, do a lava make the Chicago fans happy.
• 44:45
  Speaker 1: You sold billion dollar tours. You can afford to do
• 44:49
  Speaker 1: one smaller because fifty thousand is small compared to what
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: she gets. But come on, you could do a show
• 44:55
  Speaker 1: and Bad Bunny. Come on, dude, really, I mean you're big,
• 44:58
  Speaker 1: but damn you could do it. But there has been
• 45:05
  Speaker 1: it says that doesn't preclude the festival from making a splash.
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: Some Rubert stars include Olivia Rodrigo, Charlie XCX, and Lizzo,
• 45:15
  Speaker 1: who are all available for concerts. In early August. Lady
• 45:20
  Speaker 1: Gaga to just dropped a new album and just hosted
• 45:23
  Speaker 1: SNL last weekend, so she could be there too. She's
• 45:26
  Speaker 1: already played it twice, but the last time was in
• 45:29
  Speaker 1: twenty ten, so it's been a while. Lola loves to
• 45:32
  Speaker 1: book headliners hip hop headliners. Recent examples, I mean I'm
• 45:39
  Speaker 1: Kanye Wez, J Cole at Outcast, I mean em did
• 45:42
  Speaker 1: all La Paluza a long time ago, but don't expect
• 45:46
  Speaker 1: hip hop stars on the biggest hip hop stars on
• 45:49
  Speaker 1: the planet, Kendrick Lamar to come back to the festival.
• 45:52
  Speaker 1: He plays at Soldier Field in June. Usually, stars who
• 45:55
  Speaker 1: are on the summer tours aren't eligible for a lot
• 45:58
  Speaker 1: of Palooza, so you're not gonna see Kendrick Lamar. He's
• 46:00
  Speaker 1: not gonna be yelling Mustard, He's not gonna diss Drake
• 46:03
  Speaker 1: in front of the Chicago fans at Lallapalooza, but you
• 46:07
  Speaker 1: can't get tickets to see him at Soldier Field in June.
• 46:10
  Speaker 1: Same goes with Tyler the Creator. He's gonna be at
• 46:13
  Speaker 1: the United Center in July, and Post Malone, who's been
• 46:15
  Speaker 1: at Lallapalooza, is gonna be at Wrigley Field in May,
• 46:19
  Speaker 1: so they're already gonna be out here so they won't
• 46:21
  Speaker 1: do it twice. The choice of the article that I
• 46:26
  Speaker 1: got this from was do Chi the Rising Star one
• 46:29
  Speaker 1: Best Rap Album at the Grammys and isn't touring in
• 46:33
  Speaker 1: early August, so he could be there. Lallapalooza could also
• 46:37
  Speaker 1: get Chapel Rowan to come back for rock and roll.
• 46:42
  Speaker 1: Lallapalooza loves to pick a vintage rock headliner. Red Hot
• 46:45
  Speaker 1: Chili Peppers, food Fighters a Metallica have all headlined recently,
• 46:49
  Speaker 1: So yeah, food Fighters, Metallica, Red Hot Chili Peppers. I
• 46:53
  Speaker 1: think we're last year. Actually they were just here. Batallico
• 46:56
  Speaker 1: was here before. There's rumors that Green Day, Vampire, Weekend,
• 47:01
  Speaker 1: Tame and Paula and Avril Levine might be there. These
• 47:05
  Speaker 1: are rumors, though, but Green Day and Avril Levine that
• 47:09
  Speaker 1: would be huge. Somebody said, how about Nirvana the bandmates
• 47:13
  Speaker 1: reunited for the SNL fiftieth concert. Would post Malone replacing
• 47:17
  Speaker 1: Kirk Cobain? They only did one song at the reunion,
• 47:20
  Speaker 1: but how hard can it be to learn all in? Nevermind?
• 47:23
  Speaker 1: The problem is, though, post Malone's already gonna be on tour,
• 47:27
  Speaker 1: so if you did get Nirvana back together for it,
• 47:31
  Speaker 1: who are you gonna have doing the Kirk Cobain part
• 47:35
  Speaker 1: where he sings that might be a little hard to do.
• 47:42
  Speaker 1: It says that Laala also loves local favorites. So here's
• 47:45
  Speaker 1: something that we can see Smashing Pumpkins. Chance the rapper
• 47:51
  Speaker 1: Little Dirk might be going to jail so he won't
• 47:53
  Speaker 1: be there, but Fallout Boy, that might be a good one.
• 47:57
  Speaker 1: The emo pop band has reunited, and although they are
• 48:00
  Speaker 1: loyal to Riotfest, we could see them rocking a Saturday
• 48:04
  Speaker 1: night in Hutchington Field, so that would be big too.
• 48:08
  Speaker 1: So that's a list of some of the possibilities for
• 48:11
  Speaker 1: Lo La Paluza this year. You know, I would love
• 48:17
  Speaker 1: Lo La Plauz that I have ever Levina green Day.
• 48:19
  Speaker 1: I would love it to be out of Friday because
• 48:22
  Speaker 1: maybe I'll get tickets because I would love to go
• 48:24
  Speaker 1: see Avril Levin and Green Day. I don't know if
• 48:26
  Speaker 1: they do the same night, though they're big headliners, they
• 48:28
  Speaker 1: probably would have their own night. But you can still
• 48:31
  Speaker 1: get your LOLLA tickets. You can go to La Paluza
• 48:33
  Speaker 1: dot com and get your tickets. Get them now because
• 48:36
  Speaker 1: once that lineup is announced and people know who's gonna
• 48:39
  Speaker 1: be there, they're gonna want to get their tickets for it.
• 48:42
  Speaker 1: I love lollapaluz I've never been to it, but I
• 48:44
  Speaker 1: watch it on Hulu because Hulu does their Lallapaluza stuff,
• 48:49
  Speaker 1: so I've watched it before that I enjoy it. Let's
• 48:52
  Speaker 1: move on to our last two topics of the day.
• 48:56
  Speaker 1: Oh oh, one day I want to talk about. I
• 48:59
  Speaker 1: just saw this today on March eighth, Disturbed, seven Dust
• 49:04
  Speaker 1: and three days Grace. We're at the United Center performing
• 49:07
  Speaker 1: a concert, and I guess they accidentally burn the banners
• 49:13
  Speaker 1: for the Bulls championship banners that were hanging there. So
• 49:17
  Speaker 1: if you were at the United Center this last week
• 49:20
  Speaker 1: and all the way through the end of the season,
• 49:23
  Speaker 1: you will not be able to take pictures of the
• 49:25
  Speaker 1: iconic championship banners. They had to take them down because
• 49:29
  Speaker 1: they set up the pyro I guess underneath the banners,
• 49:33
  Speaker 1: and I guess from the flames going too high. It
• 49:36
  Speaker 1: must have did damage somehow to all the banners and
• 49:40
  Speaker 1: they had to take them all down and get them
• 49:42
  Speaker 1: redone because of that. So, yeah, if you go to
• 49:45
  Speaker 1: the United Center for Bulls or Hawks games or anything
• 49:49
  Speaker 1: right now until the end of April. You won't see
• 49:51
  Speaker 1: the championship banners hanging up right now, so you're definitely
• 49:54
  Speaker 1: not gonna get your photo op there, you know where
• 49:56
  Speaker 1: you take a selfie with the banners behind you. Yeah,
• 49:59
  Speaker 1: not gonna happen for a little while. That's crazy. I'm
• 50:01
  Speaker 1: sure Disturbed feels bad because it's their tour and I
• 50:06
  Speaker 1: believe the lead singer of Disturbed as from Chicago, so
• 50:10
  Speaker 1: that's even harder for him, you know, being a lifelong
• 50:14
  Speaker 1: fan of Chicago. Yes, I just looked it up while
• 50:17
  Speaker 1: we were doing it. He was born in New York,
• 50:19
  Speaker 1: but he lived in Chicago as a kid, so like
• 50:22
  Speaker 1: they moved from New York after he was born, and
• 50:24
  Speaker 1: he grew up in Chicago, so he wasn't born here,
• 50:27
  Speaker 1: but he was raised here. So for him, I mean,
• 50:30
  Speaker 1: let's let me look really quick at this. He was
• 50:33
  Speaker 1: born in nineteen seventy three, so by the time the
• 50:36
  Speaker 1: Bulls were already winning championships in the nineties, he was
• 50:39
  Speaker 1: already like twenty years old, seventeen to twenty years old
• 50:44
  Speaker 1: when they started winning their first three. So yeah, he
• 50:48
  Speaker 1: David Draymond, I'm sure the dude feels really bad about that.
• 50:52
  Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know if it was necessarily from
• 50:54
  Speaker 1: just his show a part of it. I mean, I'm
• 50:56
  Speaker 1: sure Avenge Sevenfold and Three Days Grace, I'm sure they
• 51:02
  Speaker 1: used the pyro too. Most of them do. So yeah,
• 51:05
  Speaker 1: that's crazy. And really, if you think about it, if
• 51:10
  Speaker 1: you really, if you really really think about it, they
• 51:16
  Speaker 1: the company that sets up the pyro should have known
• 51:20
  Speaker 1: where to put it, Like why would you put it
• 51:23
  Speaker 1: right under the banners for the bulls like you see them?
• 51:26
  Speaker 1: I mean, you can't miss them. And it's a Chicago
• 51:29
  Speaker 1: company that does it. Because the companies that they use
• 51:33
  Speaker 1: pyro from. The Pyro's not coming with them in the
• 51:36
  Speaker 1: trucks when they deliver the stage and all that that's
• 51:39
  Speaker 1: from a local company. Every singer, every band, every wrestling
• 51:44
  Speaker 1: show that uses pyro, they use local companies for it.
• 51:49
  Speaker 1: So like when WWE's SmackDown comes to Chicago in April
• 51:55
  Speaker 1: on April fourth, I think it's a Friday, they're gonna
• 51:57
  Speaker 1: be here for SmackDown, Triple H's and bringing his own
• 52:00
  Speaker 1: pyro with them. They buy the pyro from a Chicago
• 52:04
  Speaker 1: company and they're the ones that blow off the pyro
• 52:07
  Speaker 1: because they know how to do it. When to do it.
• 52:10
  Speaker 1: They're cute when to do it, they know what to do.
• 52:13
  Speaker 1: So yeah, I mean, come on, there, should know better
• 52:17
  Speaker 1: than to stick it underneath the banner of the Chicago Bulls.
• 52:19
  Speaker 1: That was stupid. So that's not I'm disturbed. That's on
• 52:22
  Speaker 1: more on everybody else. But let's go into the box
• 52:25
  Speaker 1: office reviews and see where everything landed last week. Let
• 52:31
  Speaker 1: me find it. But yeah, I do feel bad for Disturbed.
• 52:36
  Speaker 1: I'm sure they feel bad about it. They're probably like,
• 52:39
  Speaker 1: oh man, you know, nobody wants to nobody wants to
• 52:43
  Speaker 1: mess up like that and something like that. So here
• 52:46
  Speaker 1: you go. Here was the box from last week. Let's
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: see where all the movies landed. Number ten last weekend
• 52:51
  Speaker 1: did one point one million dollars in the weekend and
• 52:54
  Speaker 1: total gross. In its first week, it was called in
• 52:57
  Speaker 1: the Lost Lands. Number nine was Rule Breakers. That was
• 53:02
  Speaker 1: their first week out. It did one point five million
• 53:05
  Speaker 1: at the weekend gross two point one million total gross.
• 53:09
  Speaker 1: Move fast to The Lion King, still at number eight,
• 53:12
  Speaker 1: still coming in the top ten. It's twelfth week out
• 53:15
  Speaker 1: already weekend gross of one point seven million, two hundred
• 53:18
  Speaker 1: and fifty one million total. The movie and Nora did
• 53:22
  Speaker 1: one point eight million, coming in at number seven at
• 53:25
  Speaker 1: the weekend gross nineteen million total gross in twenty one weeks. Wow,
• 53:30
  Speaker 1: twenty one weeks. Oh my gosh, that's a lot of weeks.
• 53:35
  Speaker 1: Why is it still at the box office? They're really
• 53:37
  Speaker 1: try nineteen million? They didn't even make a million a week.
• 53:41
  Speaker 1: They made less than a million a week. I think
• 53:42
  Speaker 1: it's time to pull that from the theater and try
• 53:44

• 55:35
  Speaker 1: all right. So let's see now it's Saint Patrick's Day weekend.
• 55:39
  Speaker 1: A lot of stuff to do this weekend. Make sure
• 55:42
  Speaker 1: that you get out there. Supposed to be like sixty
• 55:44
  Speaker 1: two on Saturday. Sunday is supposed to be cold forty
• 55:47
  Speaker 1: two degrees, so you might not be able to do much,
• 55:49
  Speaker 1: and I think it's gonna be in the fifties on Monday,
• 55:52
  Speaker 1: on actual Saint Patrick's Day. So let's look at a
• 55:55
  Speaker 1: list of things to do this weekend on Saint Patty's
• 55:57
  Speaker 1: Day weekend. Of course, tomorrow morning early, they are going
• 56:01
  Speaker 1: to die the Chicago River green. So if you want
• 56:03
  Speaker 1: to get there, you gotta get there early because I
• 56:06
  Speaker 1: think they do it around like nine in the morning,
• 56:08
  Speaker 1: so you gotta be there early to watch. But that's cool.
• 56:10
  Speaker 1: They take the boat across the river and they die
• 56:13
  Speaker 1: in all green. So let's look on and see what
• 56:16
  Speaker 1: they got going this weekend. Let's see, all right, So
• 56:25
  Speaker 1: we've got dying of the Chicago River, a tradition since
• 56:28
  Speaker 1: nineteen sixty two. Representatives of the Journeyman Plumbers Local one
• 56:32
  Speaker 1: thirty pour die into Chicago River on the morning of
• 56:36
  Speaker 1: the annual Saint Patrick's Day parade, turning the water a
• 56:39
  Speaker 1: bright shade of green, not the dark, misty shade of
• 56:42
  Speaker 1: green that it normally is. The die is vegetable based,
• 56:46
  Speaker 1: so the river typically reverts to its usual murky staved
• 56:50
  Speaker 1: shade by the end of the weekend. That sounds bad.
• 56:53
  Speaker 1: Some countries got crystal clear water We've got friggin' nasty
• 56:57
  Speaker 1: green water, all right. The Chicago River dying takes place
• 57:01
  Speaker 1: between Columbus Drive and Orleans Street, So snag as spot
• 57:05
  Speaker 1: along Upper Whacker for the best site. You got to
• 57:09
  Speaker 1: get there early, like I said, because they do it early.
• 57:12
  Speaker 1: Also this weekend, the Chicago Saint Patrick's Day Parade is
• 57:15
