Transcript
- 0:23Speaker 1: Happy one day. Everybody. Welcome to another edition to the
- 0:27Speaker 1: Sports Exchange. Have a great crew that I just was programming.
- 0:29Speaker 1: Note the Sports Exchange. We'll be taking a couple of
- 0:33Speaker 1: weeks off. Candy and I are going out to Europe
- 0:36Speaker 1: and Iceland. We're going to be heading out to London, Belgium, Netherlands,
- 0:40Speaker 1: Norway and Iceland. I think I got them all right,
- 0:45Speaker 1: got five of them right. I had to make sure
- 0:47Speaker 1: I was ready for those five before while I was
- 0:50Speaker 1: on the air, because I've been figuring out the last
- 0:52Speaker 1: three or four weeks and I finally got it. Anyways,
- 0:55Speaker 1: here's what the crew. I am Bully the Man. Good
- 0:58Speaker 1: day back Willie.
- 1:00Speaker 2: Well, uh, that was a pretty cool intro there to
- 1:04Speaker 2: let everybody know that you're going to be traveling the world.
- 1:08Speaker 2: Good to be back on the Sports Exchange once again.
- 1:13Speaker 2: Thank you guys for having me.
- 1:14Speaker 1: Willie is my version of Willie Mays. Every time he
- 1:17Speaker 1: comes on here and he hits it out of the park.
- 1:20Speaker 2: That's where I got my starter jersey on today.
- 1:23Speaker 1: Exactly telling you people, he's my Willie Mays. He hits
- 1:28Speaker 1: it out of the park, and I think that's what
- 1:31Speaker 1: they said in New England without the r. He's Willie
- 1:34Speaker 1: Mays and he does a heck of job for us.
- 1:37Speaker 1: And you know he's got another famous Willie too, called
- 1:39Speaker 1: William mccubby. They're both home run hitters, and he's a
- 1:41Speaker 1: home run hitter, all these Willies and a thrunk. And
- 1:43Speaker 1: in Detroit they call him Willie Horton too because he's
- 1:46Speaker 1: awfully good too. And we got three Willies. Look at that.
- 1:48Speaker 1: And George Enian, you have to come up with that
- 1:50Speaker 1: detruck reference. I did so, all right. We got Taylor
- 1:55Speaker 1: Phillips a fact and I how you doing good? Good?
- 2:00Speaker 3: Just kicking back and relaxing. That's all I'm doing.
- 2:05Speaker 1: I'll keep you on your heels here on this show.
- 2:08Speaker 1: And Jacob Christner is in the house.
- 2:10Speaker 4: Is that Pirates that you got on Willy?
- 2:13Speaker 5: Yes, sir man, you just got signed to a ten
- 2:15Speaker 5: day contract, just wearing it.
- 2:17Speaker 2: I'll take it. I need the money, man, I need
- 2:20Speaker 2: the money.
- 2:23Speaker 1: You know. We got George Iikhorn.
- 2:25Speaker 6: Yeah, that's me looking forward to the show.
- 2:28Speaker 1: And lastly, Candy of Blake, thanks Scott for having me.
- 2:33Speaker 1: All right, well let's get to it. Bus the agenda tonight.
- 2:35Speaker 1: First topic, Actually, WILLI gave me the idea. What the heck?
- 2:39Speaker 1: Why isn't Mark Jackson a head coach in the NBA?
- 2:43Speaker 1: All he did was lay out the ground work with
- 2:45Speaker 1: for Steve Kerr with the Golden State Warriors. Kerr got
- 2:48Speaker 1: the rings and Mark Jackson had got the shaft. But
- 2:53Speaker 1: I'm going to add a little to this topic because
- 2:55Speaker 1: that also makes a question why Brian Billock never got
- 2:58Speaker 1: a head job after out winning a championship. And if
- 3:01Speaker 1: that's not good enough, what about Bob Brenley who won
- 3:04Speaker 1: the World Series and never got another shot either. Well,
- 3:07Speaker 1: the man that came up with the idea, Willie, you
- 3:10Speaker 1: can talk about Jackson, Billick, and Brenley on one shot.
- 3:16Speaker 2: Well, Brinley I don't remember as much about. But but
- 3:25Speaker 2: Brian Billick, who I thought was a phenomenal offensive coordinator,
- 3:31Speaker 2: and then for some odd reason when he got to Baltimore,
- 3:34Speaker 2: they barely straight a touchdown or even a field goal together.
- 3:40Speaker 2: And then of course Mark Jackson. I think Mark Jackson
- 3:43Speaker 2: has been blackballed by whoever for whatever reason. I think
- 3:48Speaker 2: it has a lot to do with his spirituality. I
- 3:53Speaker 2: think that him not getting another shot and some of
- 3:59Speaker 2: these other coaches that have gotten an opportunity. Even those
- 4:04Speaker 2: that have been recycled, such as the guy with the
- 4:07Speaker 2: three last name or three first names, Mike d'antni, has
- 4:11Speaker 2: gotten multiple shots. I just don't understand why. I mean,
- 4:18Speaker 2: it's if you really look at it from a standpoint
- 4:21Speaker 2: of what's right and what's wrong, think about the First
- 4:25Speaker 2: Amendment right that we all enjoy or supposedly enjoy. Is
- 4:31Speaker 2: this an infringement on his First Amendment right? They will
- 4:34Speaker 2: never admit it. I think that has a big part
- 4:38Speaker 2: to do with it. And I don't know what everybody
- 4:41Speaker 2: else's faith is on this panel. I know what mine is.
- 4:47Speaker 2: And if I know Mark Jackson in his faith, he's
- 4:52Speaker 2: not even tripping. I mean, he's he's good. He's good.
- 4:56Speaker 2: It's just a matter. It's just us out here, the
- 4:59Speaker 2: talk heads that have a lot to say. But I'm
- 5:03Speaker 2: pretty sure Mark Jackson is is more than Okay, Well.
- 5:07Speaker 1: Mark Jackson number one is get in broadcasting for the
- 5:10Speaker 1: longest time. He's done all right. I actually met Mark
- 5:13Speaker 1: Jackson when he played for the Indiana Pacers when the
- 5:16Speaker 1: Pistons were playing the one of the nicest people he
- 5:18Speaker 1: ever met. He really is a super nice guy and
- 5:21Speaker 1: he's super knowledgeable too. Will he really really is? We
- 5:24Speaker 1: after all, you've heard him on the network. Back of
- 5:27Speaker 1: these guys Brenley, Billock and Jackson did well on the air.
- 5:32Speaker 1: It's just too bad they never got another opportunity to
- 5:34Speaker 1: get the second chance to coach. But they're all championship
- 5:37Speaker 1: pedigree type of coaches. So there. Jackson laid out the
- 5:40Speaker 1: grout work for a championship team, Billick won one, and
- 5:44Speaker 1: Bob Brenley beat the New York Games in the two
- 5:48Speaker 1: thousand and one a series that many people were rooting
- 5:51Speaker 1: for the New York Yats because away with drive and
- 5:57Speaker 1: never got an opportunity he was lately it's a job
- 6:04Speaker 1: coaches what they have out there and had great careers
- 6:08Speaker 1: in TV. So yeah, Mark Jackson, he you know he
- 6:11Speaker 1: Stevin A. Smith is trying to go to bat for me.
- 6:13Speaker 1: You can't get him an interview. And Steven A. Smith
- 6:16Speaker 1: has a louder mouth than a lot of people that
- 6:19Speaker 1: I know, and I won't mention any name, but Steven A.
- 6:21Speaker 1: Smith and loud. All right, So with that, say Taylor,
- 6:25Speaker 1: what are your thoughts?
- 6:27Speaker 2: Well?
- 6:28Speaker 3: Brian Billick, him not getting that promotion to head coach
- 6:32Speaker 3: from assistant from offensive coordinator. My only defense for that
- 6:39Speaker 3: is they just don't see him good enough to be
- 6:43Speaker 3: a head coach at the current moment.
- 6:47Speaker 1: Uh, he'll.
- 6:50Speaker 3: Brian Billick. Okay, Yeah, because uh, they think they think
- 6:55Speaker 3: he needs more time and more mental development. But the
- 7:08Speaker 3: just just the experienced ones, uh know how to do
- 7:11Speaker 3: it more. The more experienced head coaches know how to
- 7:16Speaker 3: do it more.
- 7:17Speaker 1: Yeah. It never let me ask you a question, and
- 7:20Speaker 1: I'm gonna try. I know that. I'm just gonna make
- 7:24Speaker 1: it really easy. What are your thought about Mark Jackson?
- 7:27Speaker 1: And that's where Willie talks about to him the most.
- 7:29Speaker 1: If you're not sure about Mark Jackson, the background, the NBA,
- 7:32Speaker 1: It's okay, I'm okay with it. I'd rather you just
- 7:35Speaker 1: admit that you're not familiar with them, and I can
- 7:37Speaker 1: accept that because I know you follow a certain sports particular.
- 7:40Speaker 1: I want to just make sure that you're comfortable.
- 7:43Speaker 3: Or Mark Jackson, from what I'm hearing it is, uh
- 7:47Speaker 3: was a mentor of someone.
- 7:49Speaker 1: Uh and.
- 7:52Speaker 3: If he if he can't get if he can't promote
- 7:55Speaker 3: someone from from a lower level to a head coach
- 7:59Speaker 3: of any sport, then then he said he would take
- 8:04Speaker 3: over himself. And he gets is that he's fine with it.
- 8:09Speaker 1: That's fair.
- 8:10Speaker 3: That's the thing in general.
- 8:11Speaker 1: Okay, Jacob, go ahead.
- 8:13Speaker 5: Well, as far as Billick, you got to realize how
- 8:15Speaker 5: long has it been in the first place, how long
- 8:18Speaker 5: has it been since he's been into the coaching Realize
- 8:22Speaker 5: there's examples like John Grud and John Goruden. Before all
- 8:26Speaker 5: of this happened with him, he wasn't that he was
- 8:29Speaker 5: living off of two thousand and seven to begin with
- 8:32Speaker 5: as far as his world, and then he just wasn't
- 8:36Speaker 5: that great in the offense again with and he would
- 8:38Speaker 5: get run past anyway.
- 8:40Speaker 4: So there's that. But what would happen with Billock?
- 8:44Speaker 6: As far as.
- 8:45Speaker 5: Mark Jackson goes, Remember he's an announcer. Disney can remember
- 8:51Speaker 5: a ESPN is owned by Disney. They can control anything
- 8:56Speaker 5: when the announcers. But Disney is so scared to death
- 9:01Speaker 5: that he might actually no prey on the court. They're
- 9:06Speaker 5: so a prey that he's going to that he might
- 9:09Speaker 5: offend somebody which at some point been around the Disney side.
- 9:13Speaker 5: They need to be offended, right, and they need they
- 9:16Speaker 5: need to be offended, and they need to be offended
- 9:18Speaker 5: hard and meant to be offended. So that's But the
- 9:21Speaker 5: thing is Mark Jackson's a basketball genius. He needs to
- 9:25Speaker 5: be out there, and it's like, these are the these
- 9:27Speaker 5: are the things we have to understand and get.
- 9:30Speaker 4: But as far as Brendley, didn't he win three World Series?
- 9:35Speaker 1: Brendley, I think he won the two thousand and one.
- 9:39Speaker 4: I was thinking of somebody else's the three. As far
- 9:42Speaker 4: as the Giants.
- 9:44Speaker 1: Och, yeah, thank you.
- 9:47Speaker 5: But Brentley Brindley getting older, and it's like Brendley's getting older,
- 9:52Speaker 5: and it's like this is the thing. It's like, how
- 9:54Speaker 5: long has it been? But this is the thing also
- 9:57Speaker 5: with it. Why would they just called Dusty Baker back.
- 10:03Speaker 4: I'm just saying this.
- 10:05Speaker 5: Why wouldn't they call he's more recently a World Series guy?
- 10:08Speaker 5: And I'm just saying this, If they were gonna call Bridley,
- 10:11Speaker 5: why wouldn't they just call Dusty back?
- 10:12Speaker 4: He's been more recent in the person way.
- 10:14Speaker 1: Well, but Bob Brindley should have gotten the opportunities after
- 10:16Speaker 1: he won the World Series. And now after the fact,
- 10:19Speaker 1: they're writing he's too older, But back then he wasn't
- 10:21Speaker 1: you know, soon as the timonbacks let him go. I'm
- 10:23Speaker 1: just surprised a fool was at ring. That's all I'm saying.
- 10:26Speaker 4: Yeah, but all I can all I can bring.
- 10:28Speaker 5: Up with with why Jackson isn't there is because the
- 10:33Speaker 5: minute esp I can say this, the minute ESPN would
- 10:37Speaker 5: separate from Disney, you will see, and I'm not kidding you,
- 10:40Speaker 5: Mark Jackson would have a job. It's because Disney is
- 10:43Speaker 5: just too darn afraid of getting offended, offending other people,
- 10:47Speaker 5: and they're just ridiculous and they're stupid.
- 10:50Speaker 4: But Mark Jackson.
- 10:51Speaker 1: Should be in the court with no questions Candy.
- 10:56Speaker 7: Mark Jackson was actually laid off from ESPN back in three.
- 11:03Speaker 8: So Mark only coached for the Golden State Warriors for
- 11:08Speaker 8: a short time. I think they have a let's face it,
- 11:17Speaker 8: ESPN went through a phase there where they've been firing
- 11:20Speaker 8: a lot of their higher paid long term broadcasters because
- 11:27Speaker 8: they can't afford it.
- 11:29Speaker 7: They can't afford it. With all the different streamings that's
- 11:34Speaker 7: out there, ESPN doesn't have the same income coming in.
- 11:39Speaker 7: I don't think to be able to keep up and.
- 11:43Speaker 8: Keep pace with all of the talent, because, let's face it,
- 11:46Speaker 8: there's Fox, Now, there's some other ones that are coming
- 11:48Speaker 8: out that are paying and competing for these top guys.
- 11:53Speaker 8: They chose to stay with steven A because steven A
- 11:56Speaker 8: draws more than some of these other talents. Does Mark
- 12:02Speaker 8: Jackson deserve another chance as a coach? I don't know
- 12:06Speaker 8: that Mark Jackson wants. Really, he's a life coach, he's
- 12:11Speaker 8: a pastor, so he's he's taken a different approach, I think,
- 12:15Speaker 8: and I and I do think that sometimes when you
- 12:19Speaker 8: go out of that into the religious realm as a
- 12:24Speaker 8: as a sports commentators, sportsperson, that sometimes you are looked
- 12:30Speaker 8: upon very differently and then they don't let you back in.
- 12:35Speaker 9: Okay, that's fair, all right, George Well, I tend to disagree.
- 12:40Speaker 10: There's a report Candy that he would be interested in
- 12:43Speaker 10: talking to the New York Knickerbockers, and that he is
- 12:48Speaker 10: interested if they soill care to talk to him.
- 12:52Speaker 6: But Jacob, who hate it perfectly.
- 12:54Speaker 10: We all know what's going on with some of the
- 12:56Speaker 10: philosophies of Disney and things like that, and it is
- 13:00Speaker 10: unfortunate because he laid the groundwork for Steve Kerr.
- 13:04Speaker 6: He really did. He had two back to back playoff
- 13:08Speaker 6: teams there.
- 13:10Speaker 10: They let him go and obviously gave a job to
- 13:13Speaker 10: a Hall of fame coach, No question, about it, Kerr.
- 13:16Speaker 6: We all know k in the Hall of Fame.
- 13:19Speaker 10: And the fact of the matter is, yes, he did
- 13:21Speaker 10: go into broadcasting. What that's happened before, where guys go
- 13:25Speaker 10: into broadcasting and they want to go back into coaching
- 13:28Speaker 10: or managing. We've seen that before, you know, and you
- 13:31Speaker 10: mentioned you know, and the same with Bob Brenley and Billick.
- 13:34Speaker 10: I mean, these guys are good coaches, no question about
- 13:37Speaker 10: it in my mind, all three of them. And Mark Jackson,
- 13:42Speaker 10: you know, say what you want. He's just a solid,
- 13:45Speaker 10: solid professional. He is religious, okay, but he's a great
- 13:51Speaker 10: x's and O S guy. He's a coach and he
- 13:53Speaker 10: was a damn good coach in the NBA when he
- 13:55Speaker 10: was coaching.
- 13:56Speaker 6: That's all I'm going to say.
- 13:58Speaker 1: Well, I'll tell you now, I have some strong work
- 14:00Speaker 1: based on what everybody said. Number One, he mentored Steph Curry, period.
- 14:05Speaker 1: He taught him how to play that position in the NBA.
- 14:07Speaker 1: Number Two, Tom Thibodau got fired. And what what's he
- 14:11Speaker 1: get fired for? Because all he did was take him
- 14:13Speaker 1: to the conference finals. Really seriously, really, you knew they
- 14:17Speaker 1: had come in and I mean I know he let
- 14:20Speaker 1: him go because he ran them the starters to the ground,
- 14:24Speaker 1: and that's why he let him go. Let's go if
- 14:27Speaker 1: you want to get rid of a public relation tobacle.
- 14:29Speaker 1: Freaking Jackson. Really, he's a New Yorker anyways, And I
- 14:35Speaker 1: don't know if Jackson could go ahead and solve the
- 14:37Speaker 1: James Dolean problem. Nobody has. That's not a problem, that's
- 14:40Speaker 1: a riddle. I mean, Charles Oakley got banned out of there,
- 14:46Speaker 1: he lost his season ticket because he'd got in an
- 14:48Speaker 1: argument with this guy. But Martin Jackson, but Thibodeau gets
- 14:53Speaker 1: fired for taking into the conference finals. And we know
- 14:55Speaker 1: there's more to it than that. But what are you
- 14:57Speaker 1: gonna do if they go backwards and what happens?
- 15:00Speaker 5: Oh, they're already getting too They're nuts. But Willie, could
- 15:04Speaker 5: you imagine if if Mark was allowed to be a
- 15:07Speaker 5: coach and he got and his little brother actually lost
- 15:11Speaker 5: some weight Escalade, if Escalade lost some weight and he
- 15:15Speaker 5: had that he had like Steph Curry and then that
- 15:19Speaker 5: guy passing the ball, that kind of size, with that
- 15:22Speaker 5: kind of everything. How truthfully, the whole thing with Escalade
- 15:27Speaker 5: was he was and one, but he had hands, and
- 15:31Speaker 5: what he could have done with that to be able
- 15:33Speaker 5: to coach, if you could just get him to get
- 15:36Speaker 5: any discipline on that thing, to be a center, it
- 15:39Speaker 5: would have been it would have sort of been kind
- 15:41Speaker 5: of like a Jokic Sabonis type deal for him with
- 15:46Speaker 5: all those passers.
- 15:47Speaker 4: Could you imagine that?
- 15:50Speaker 1: Well, I mean, you think about the whole thing. We
- 15:53Speaker 1: all know about the Triviodeau story. Let's just say what
- 15:56Speaker 1: happens if this thing goes backwards? So bec apple, because
- 16:00Speaker 1: a rotten apple. These new dudes, New York people haven't
- 16:03Speaker 1: won a championship. If basketball was seventy two, and that
- 16:07Speaker 1: said nineteen seventy two, that's not long I think. And
- 16:14Speaker 1: I thought they won two back then on the red
- 16:16Speaker 1: holds seventy one, seventy two and seventy two. I know
- 16:18Speaker 1: it was early seventies, that's for sure, But that's a
- 16:23Speaker 1: long time. Not that James Dolan doesn't care. But that's
- 16:26Speaker 1: for another story. We have a lot of other topics
- 16:29Speaker 1: get to I knew that one. Willie brought this one
- 16:31Speaker 1: out from Mark Jackson was gonna be a lightning rod,
- 16:33Speaker 1: and it turned exactly to be that. So now that
- 16:36Speaker 1: Taylor got his basketball lesson for the night, we're gonna
- 16:39Speaker 1: quiz him on it on a later date, about Mark
- 16:40Speaker 1: Jackson and not Michael Jackson of the Jackson Five. About
- 16:44Speaker 1: Mark Jackson, the man with the hands who was a
- 16:47Speaker 1: big part of the Indiana Pacers. So just kidding with you, Taylor,
- 16:51Speaker 1: I like this guy. He's coming a long way. But
- 16:54Speaker 1: I know one person that a lot of people who
- 16:57Speaker 1: heard about called Caitlyn Clark, haven't we So the Kit
- 17:01Speaker 1: Clark impact. You talked about the Fevers rivalry game versus
- 17:05Speaker 1: Angel Revees and the Chicago's guy dropped seventy one percent
- 17:09Speaker 1: on the tickets went down from eighty six dollars twenty
- 17:12Speaker 1: five bucks. The game was moved to the United Center.
- 17:15Speaker 1: Now get this, you want to talk about the face
- 17:17Speaker 1: of the league. The two youngest players in WNBA history
- 17:21Speaker 1: to record a triple double Kaitlyn Clark on seven six
- 17:25Speaker 1: of twenty four, twenty two years in one hundred and
- 17:28Speaker 1: sixty six days and Angel Rees twenty three years forty days.
- 17:32Speaker 1: And that was just recently. So Willie, you know we
- 17:35Speaker 1: always talk about the WNBA. What are your thoughts about
- 17:38Speaker 1: number one? The nose dive in the ticket prices the
- 17:42Speaker 1: one day Because we all know that this woman like
- 17:44Speaker 1: Jacob has talked about Larry Bird of women's basketball. I
- 17:49Speaker 1: mean this Kaitlin Clark's financial impact is absorbed it.
- 17:55Speaker 2: Yeah, and moving the game to the United Center, I
- 18:02Speaker 2: could see why the dropping prices to get more people
- 18:07Speaker 2: in there. And that's the impact that it is Kaitlyn Clark.
- 18:11Speaker 2: I mean, they're going to be playing the Dallas Wings
- 18:14Speaker 2: on the twenty seventh, and the Wings play their home
- 18:18Speaker 2: games on the campus of the University of Texas at Arlington,
- 18:22Speaker 2: but that game will be played at American Airline Center
- 18:24Speaker 2: on the twenty seventh, And I'm not sure how much
- 18:27Speaker 2: the ticket prices are, but the AAC has a capacity
- 18:32Speaker 2: of about twenty one thousand people and there's no reason
- 18:37Speaker 2: to believe why it won't be at least eighty percent
- 18:42Speaker 2: capacity for that game. And I think Page Becker's has
- 18:46Speaker 2: something to do with that as well. I think Enrique
- 18:49Speaker 2: Gogobalale has something to do with that as well, along
- 18:52Speaker 2: with the other players as well. But we know that
- 18:54Speaker 2: Caitlyn Clark, she's been the draw really even before she
- 19:00Speaker 2: became out of Iowa.
- 19:05Speaker 1: No question about it. I mean, in a triple double
- 19:07Speaker 1: at such an early age is unbelievable too. But you
- 19:10Speaker 1: have Angel reeson Kaitlyn Clark. Basically leg have Magic Johnson
- 19:15Speaker 1: and Larry Bird all over again in this league. That's
- 19:17Speaker 1: just remarkable. By the way, Caine just gets a really
- 19:19Speaker 1: good comparison with CC as a whole. Colgan of the
- 19:22Speaker 1: w n B A pretty interesting, isn't I mean? I
- 19:26Speaker 1: like that one, all right? Taylor?
- 19:31Speaker 3: Well, the United Center wants everyone to see the two
- 19:35Speaker 3: faces as they do of the w NBA, Kaitlin Clark
- 19:37Speaker 3: and Angel Reese. So that's that's why they lowered the
- 19:41Speaker 3: ticket prices just to get just to draw more people
- 19:44Speaker 3: in to see like the grandest w NBA game of
- 19:50Speaker 3: them all, the WNBA match above them all, the Fever
- 19:55Speaker 3: and the Sky, Kaitlyn Clark versus Angel Reese. They would
- 20:00Speaker 3: love to keep seeing multiple matchups between the two and
- 20:05Speaker 3: if it keep and if it keeps paying it up often,
- 20:09Speaker 3: then then the prices will go back up up one
- 20:11Speaker 3: more like, at least little by little. And that's just
- 20:14Speaker 3: how the business goes, all right, Jacob, Well, the.
- 20:20Speaker 4: Drop in the drops for the they've moved it to
- 20:23Speaker 4: the United Center.
- 20:24Speaker 1: For the original game, Cadine got.
- 20:26Speaker 5: Hurt, so then they had to drop prices and try
- 20:28Speaker 5: to bring people in because.
- 20:30Speaker 4: But the but the biggest thing is a lot of people.
- 20:35Speaker 5: I mean, she is the face, but there's a lot
- 20:37Speaker 5: of people that despise it that she's the face. And
- 20:40Speaker 5: I'm saying this part, this isn't a white and black thing.
- 20:44Speaker 5: It isn't because if it was a white and black thing,
- 20:46Speaker 5: it'd be paid Becker's and they'd say hat and her
- 20:48Speaker 5: no because they know her even though she's from Minnesota
- 20:51Speaker 5: and she's Connecticut. There's a coastal thing to this. What
- 20:55Speaker 5: they what a lot of people do not like and
- 20:58Speaker 5: they can't stand that she's the face of it into
- 21:00Speaker 5: Iowa just a midwestern corn you know, from the cornfields,
- 21:07Speaker 5: right and then playing in Indiana and and it's like
- 21:12Speaker 5: that's bringing that.
- 21:13Speaker 1: In the middle.
- 21:13Speaker 5: And there's here's the deal that don't take what I'm
- 21:18Speaker 5: saying off of the page on this is because our
- 21:22Speaker 5: finals right now, which is a phenomenal finals is Indiana
- 21:25Speaker 5: and Oklahoma City, two of the same times, and the
- 21:30Speaker 5: and the coastal ESPN and coastal everything did not put
- 21:34Speaker 5: their marketing machine behind them. It is the lowest rate
- 21:37Speaker 5: rated in a long time because they didn't want to,
- 21:40Speaker 5: but they wanted New York in LA.
- 21:41Speaker 4: They wanted Boston and New York.
- 21:43Speaker 5: They wanted all those, right, They didn't want the They
- 21:46Speaker 5: don't want to promote the Midwest. They don't want to
- 21:48Speaker 5: promote like that. They've got they've got an arrogant attitude
- 21:51Speaker 5: on it. And they and the thing is, they would
- 21:54Speaker 5: love I said last week that I would bet you
- 21:57Speaker 5: that they're going to try to get if there would
- 21:59Speaker 5: be a place in Boston for the w n g.
- 22:01Speaker 4: A they Tria to get Caitlin Clark. I said that
- 22:04Speaker 4: last week, and.
- 22:05Speaker 5: The and the ESPN would love it, because they don't
- 22:10Speaker 5: like the idea that Indiana has this much room on
- 22:13Speaker 5: their airways.
- 22:15Speaker 4: They don't like it.
- 22:16Speaker 5: They don't like the idea that Iowa got that much
- 22:18Speaker 5: when she was in college.
- 22:19Speaker 4: There's just arrogance. They call them fly over states for
- 22:22Speaker 4: a reason.
- 22:25Speaker 1: Interesting. I like that, It is interesting. H Willie.
- 22:30Speaker 2: Yeah, I actually heard something earlier today that the Pacers,
- 22:38Speaker 2: the odds for the Pacers to win the championship are
- 22:41Speaker 2: better next year than they are now.
- 22:45Speaker 5: You're correct on that. It isn't the winning. The thing
- 22:48Speaker 5: is they don't want to market them. It's they're they're
- 22:51Speaker 5: going to admit that they're good, but they don't want
- 22:54Speaker 5: to market.
- 22:54Speaker 4: They don't want they want.
- 22:55Speaker 5: New York LA, they want all that kind of stuff.
- 22:58Speaker 5: They're just guys, arrogant mindset.
- 23:01Speaker 1: Well, it's always been ESPN mentality anyways.
- 23:07Speaker 7: Yeah, Candy, So how how has Caitlin impacted? Clark's presence
- 23:15Speaker 7: has significantly boosted WNBA revenue, with estimates placing her contribution
- 23:22Speaker 7: at over a quarter of the league's total economic activity.
- 23:28Speaker 7: Ticket sales when she's on the road we have reportedly
- 23:32Speaker 7: increased by as much as one hundred and forty percent.
- 23:36Speaker 7: Merchandise sales for the w NBA have reportedly increased by
- 23:41Speaker 7: five hundred percent since her arrival, with clark merchandise leading
- 23:48Speaker 7: the way. Her games have drawn millions of viewers. We've
- 23:52Speaker 7: talked about that before. The Indiana Fevers franchise value has
- 23:58Speaker 7: reportedly quadruped due to Clark's presence. Indianapolis has seen an
- 24:06Speaker 7: increase in hotel bookings tourism related to Fever games and
- 24:10Speaker 7: Clark's popularity. Some projections suggest Clark's presence could help the
- 24:18Speaker 7: WNBA generate nearly one billion dollars in revenue in twenty
- 24:25Speaker 7: twenty five, good for them.
- 24:28Speaker 1: Well there's okay, there's your title, Kaitlyn Clark's financial Impact.
- 24:32Speaker 1: Some rise with your stats, your greatest stats.
- 24:36Speaker 8: Her success is also raising the profile of other WNBA
- 24:41Speaker 8: players and the league as a whole.
- 24:45Speaker 7: Great job, Kyton Clark.
- 24:47Speaker 1: Yeah, and I hope that those other players are grateful
- 24:50Speaker 1: when they get bigger paycheck because of this young lady,
- 24:53Speaker 1: because that's the reason that they will. And I'll leave
- 24:55Speaker 1: it at that. I said my piece, and that's why
- 24:58Speaker 1: I came up with the title Kaitlyn Clark's Financial Impact.
- 25:02Speaker 1: And all Katy did was just their hammer with a
- 25:05Speaker 1: file ay full of stats.
- 25:07Speaker 10: Okay, George, Well, there's no question about her financial impact.
- 25:11Speaker 10: I mean, it's a tremendous boon to the WNBA and
- 25:15Speaker 10: to basketball in general. But the thing that really bothers
- 25:18Speaker 10: me is this craft going on and this dirty play
- 25:21Speaker 10: and this stuff that they're doing pushing her and shoving
- 25:23Speaker 10: her and making them get angry and all this stuff
- 25:26Speaker 10: going on. I know we're not going to talk about
- 25:27Speaker 10: that now, but I think they better take a good
- 25:29Speaker 10: look at that before before too long. Because I watched
- 25:34Speaker 10: the replay again and again at the shenanigans from the
- 25:36Speaker 10: game on Tuesday Night, and all that to be said.
- 25:40Speaker 10: We don't protect everybody, but you do protect your stars.
- 25:43Speaker 10: Let's face it, every sport does in some way and
- 25:47Speaker 10: shape and form. They've done it for years and decades.
- 25:51Speaker 10: All I'm saying is that she is one of your
- 25:53Speaker 10: top stars. She is one of your top draws. You
- 25:56Speaker 10: see these teams playing in big arenas now and wanting
- 25:59Speaker 10: to sell out anytime she comes into town.
- 26:01Speaker 6: So she means a lot to that.
- 26:03Speaker 10: League, and and it's not necessary for them to to
- 26:08Speaker 10: get into cheap shot stuff with her at all.
- 26:10Speaker 6: That's all I want to say on it.
- 26:12Speaker 1: Well, Herb and Rod's podcast, welcome to the show. I
- 26:15Speaker 1: appreciate you being a Willie supporter and you support him
- 26:19Speaker 1: if you entirely help us out is. Please subscribe to
- 26:22Speaker 1: our YouTube channel too, but Willis takes priority over our
- 26:26Speaker 1: We appreciate it. So as far as Kaitlin Clark of
- 26:29Speaker 1: this podcast, I'm going to say one thing, Herb, I'm
- 26:32Speaker 1: the angel reef. Then well, hey listen, Herb. Yeah, please
- 26:38Speaker 1: subscribe to our YouTube channel as well. Come for a tribune.
- 26:41Speaker 1: But I'm gonna tell you one thing. I know Willy
- 26:43Speaker 1: a long time. If this guy is a superstar in
- 26:47Speaker 1: more ways than one, one of the nice people have
- 26:48Speaker 1: ever worked with. And he will be in Lessons from
- 26:51Speaker 1: a Microphone Part two. That's all I know. Yeah he will.
- 26:55Speaker 1: But hey, listen, it's okay to get props to somebody
- 26:57Speaker 1: that gives your respect. Think about it, Rodney Dangerfield never
- 27:01Speaker 1: got respect and you're data.
- 27:03Speaker 2: Well, I like to think.
- 27:06Speaker 1: I like that.
- 27:07Speaker 2: I appreciate that, and I like to think that I've
- 27:10Speaker 2: earned it the old fashioned way. I earned it. And
- 27:14Speaker 2: Herb and Rodge are a special group, or they are
- 27:19Speaker 2: a special pair of brothers, let me tell you. And
- 27:21Speaker 2: when I say brothers, I mean they they're real brothers.
- 27:23Speaker 2: They're their pot They were with they were part of
- 27:25Speaker 2: our group a little while ago, and then they ventured
- 27:29Speaker 2: out and got on their own. I I love what
- 27:33Speaker 2: they've been doing. Uh what they have been doing is
- 27:36Speaker 2: is so refreshing. The only thing I don't like about
- 27:40Speaker 2: them is that they're Alabama fans.
- 27:44Speaker 1: I hear you. And I will say one thing about
- 27:47Speaker 1: this Caitlin Clark thing. I still think it was an
- 27:49Speaker 1: absolute bloney that she wasn't on the US women's Olympic
- 27:53Speaker 1: team last year. I really think that was bad. But
- 27:57Speaker 1: you know what, she took it and tried and got
- 27:59Speaker 1: the rest. Oh that's okay. Hey, listen, she took this right.
- 28:02Speaker 1: And she's a lot. I'm just saying, I'm entitled in
- 28:04Speaker 1: my opinion. Whether anybody agrees with her or not, I'm
- 28:07Speaker 1: going to disagree with because she was let's say something. Well,
- 28:10Speaker 1: all right, but listen to me. I was on the
- 28:12Speaker 1: wrong end of the Amando Galarraga debate where everybody thought
- 28:16Speaker 1: that they should keep his infamous Perfect Game there, and
- 28:19Speaker 1: I thought this should change that. And I was out
- 28:21Speaker 1: numbered by about six seven eight people to one. That's okay.
- 28:24Speaker 1: And when I predicted the Indiana Patris would win, it
- 28:28Speaker 1: didn't look bad for a while, but it didn't looking
- 28:30Speaker 1: very good anymore. And I'll eat crows don't go my way.
- 28:33Speaker 1: But that was everything to gain, nothing to loose, prediction.
- 28:36Speaker 1: So nobody's coming from me for predictions. And I'm not
- 28:38Speaker 1: worried about it because I'm not going to have a
- 28:40Speaker 1: senson if people go the other way and I'm not
- 28:43Speaker 1: and I'm wrong.
- 28:44Speaker 2: But how do you like your crow?
- 28:46Speaker 1: How do I what?
- 28:47Speaker 2: How do you like your crow? Do you like it?
- 28:50Speaker 2: Fried Salte fond?
- 28:52Speaker 1: Dude? Oh, I like that, well, I like everything well done.
- 28:55Speaker 1: Don't worry about that I do. I mean, I'll tell you.
- 28:58Speaker 1: I can tell you how many meals I'm made well done,
- 29:00Speaker 1: even if it wasn't by choice. But I can sit
- 29:04Speaker 1: here and tell you about the I'm going to get
- 29:06Speaker 1: to a food topic in a minute, but I can
- 29:08Speaker 1: tell you right now that the one thing you don't
- 29:10Speaker 1: do to a grilled cheese is sticking in a microwave
- 29:12Speaker 1: four minutes. And if you stick it in a four
- 29:14Speaker 1: microway four minutes, you can break a triple pane window.
- 29:17Speaker 1: And if you need a hammer to pound in a nail,
- 29:19Speaker 1: just stick a piece of wood on top of that
- 29:20Speaker 1: gross cheese sandwich and that nail goes into hole. Baby,
- 29:23Speaker 1: I'm telling you so as far as my crow, I'll
- 29:26Speaker 1: take it well done because I know that I made
- 29:28Speaker 1: a bull move. But it didn't look so bad after
- 29:30Speaker 1: they won a couple of games, and all of a sudden,
- 29:31Speaker 1: it looks so good later on, and Indiana had him
- 29:33Speaker 1: on the ropes in game five until they got it.
- 29:36Speaker 1: They got away, and we saw what happened, so it
- 29:38Speaker 1: wasn't looking bad. It's not like they got swept. You
- 29:41Speaker 1: got to give Rick Carlisle his due. It's just I
- 29:44Speaker 1: realized that Oklahoma, oh Lahoma City's a Hectabo club and
- 29:48Speaker 1: around the whale they could very well win. I think
- 29:51Speaker 1: Tyree's Haliver, I don't think he's playing today is coming
- 29:53Speaker 1: my hear so. But either way, Indiana, like you say,
- 29:56Speaker 1: Willia is probably his favorite next year. Much of it
- 29:58Speaker 1: is made of Disney in ESPN and whatever. So hat
- 30:02Speaker 1: top to the Pacers. Even if everybody on the panel
- 30:04Speaker 1: is right not wrong, I'll deal with that, but I'll
- 30:07Speaker 1: deal with this too. One of my favorite segments in
- 30:10Speaker 1: the show were the non sports topics, and boy, I
- 30:13Speaker 1: love to put a lot of work in any guy.
- 30:15Speaker 1: So when Willie told me give it to me basic,
- 30:17Speaker 1: what the text message is, that means he didn't get
- 30:19Speaker 1: to see these either. So here we're gonna do. Let's
- 30:22Speaker 1: have a little bit of fun with the non sports
- 30:24Speaker 1: topics that anybody that wants to come in. I'm not
- 30:27Speaker 1: going on the road around the horn here because the
- 30:29Speaker 1: way I get to the other stuff. But item number one, okay,
- 30:32Speaker 1: non spoorts topic. Look at Willie put that hand on
- 30:35Speaker 1: the face with the head down. Oh god, let this
- 30:37Speaker 1: scuger coming up with this time. Oh my god, Ohnally
- 30:41Speaker 1: Keith Jexons would say, okay, we got a little key
- 30:43Speaker 1: texting in here. Everybody can tell them. I'm getting ready
- 30:45Speaker 1: for a trip.
- 30:48Speaker 4: You're tripping right now.
- 30:49Speaker 1: I'll think you are ready.
- 30:51Speaker 2: I think you are ready on the trip.
- 30:52Speaker 1: Well, I'll tell you one place I'm not going to, though,
- 30:55Speaker 1: is I'm not going to Japan. But they are. Tell
- 30:57Speaker 1: you one me about Jaman. They are developing floating houses
- 31:00Speaker 1: that lift off the ground during earthquakes briefly when the
- 31:03Speaker 1: tremor is hit by air, developed by dancing systems. How
- 31:06Speaker 1: about that, floating houses people avoid earthquakes. You heard that one.
- 31:14Speaker 1: Floating houses.
- 31:15Speaker 6: That's a new one to me.
- 31:18Speaker 1: Crew, So we won't that'll be floating too, But floating houses. California.
- 31:25Speaker 1: California needs floating homes. They won't have to worry about
- 31:28Speaker 1: the earthquakes every five minutes.
- 31:29Speaker 5: No, no, I guarantee you if you tell California they you
- 31:33Speaker 5: get floating homes, there will be some special interest that
- 31:37Speaker 5: will say no to it for whatever reason.
- 31:40Speaker 1: But we're talking about Japan, California. Why not. I'm talking
- 31:45Speaker 1: about them too. You have floating houses. I never heard
- 31:48Speaker 1: them before until the Japanese came up with it. But
- 31:52Speaker 1: if you think that's interesting, I got something even better
- 31:56Speaker 1: than this one, okay, really better floating houses. A man
- 32:02Speaker 1: named Joel Berger okay, married a woman named Ashley King, okay,
- 32:10Speaker 1: and Burger Key paid for the whole wedding. Source Inside History.

- 36:36Speaker 1: banned your class ack with this. Other guy just kind
- 36:39Speaker 1: of wrote it a little too far. It takes a
- 36:41Speaker 1: lot to get banned from this though. But ever that
- 36:43Speaker 1: that David, why walk the plank, as they say, from
- 36:48Speaker 1: a guy wearing a pirate's hat? Right? Okay? Well that said,
- 36:52Speaker 1: We're going to my town, all right, and I'm gonna

- 37:08Speaker 1: Jazz traded to the Pistons and what was his reward
- 37:10Speaker 1: a trip to the NBA playoffs. Another thing in my
- 37:13Speaker 1: neck of the wood, Florida and Miami are finalizing the

- 37:26Speaker 1: We see these guys meet on the field lot. It's
- 37:29Speaker 1: good to hopefully see him on the hardcore. So kudos
- 37:32Speaker 1: to them for being able to do that. And again,
- 37:34Speaker 1: as I mentioned before, Dennis Schroeder and who knows Georgia
- 37:38Speaker 1: is gonna land, but at least he landed in the
- 37:40Speaker 1: playoffs this year. That's my town, Willie Woods yours.
- 37:44Speaker 2: Well, I'm going to go to the photo in my background, okay,
- 37:52Speaker 2: And even though I live in Dallas, a group the
- 37:55Speaker 2: first part of my life in that place where you
- 37:59Speaker 2: see in my back, so.
- 38:03Speaker 3: The y Oakland Coliseum.
- 38:05Speaker 2: Well, in the first part of what you just said,
- 38:08Speaker 2: not the Colisseum literally, but not that far though not
- 38:11Speaker 2: that far from the Colosseum. The fact that there are
- 38:16Speaker 2: no more major professional sports franchises in the East Bay
- 38:24Speaker 2: to me, has signaled the end of sports. This is
- 38:29Speaker 2: sports armageddon at its worst. Of course, I am over
- 38:35Speaker 2: exaggerating simply because I still love that city. I still
- 38:39Speaker 2: love the Raiders, or still love the A's. I don't
- 38:41Speaker 2: care if they could play on the Moon or play
- 38:43Speaker 2: on Mars or wherever. Those are gonna always be my teams.
- 38:46Speaker 2: And people would ask me, well, since the Raiders have
- 38:48Speaker 2: moved to Vegas, are you still a team? Are you
- 38:51Speaker 2: still a fan? And you know what, I had to
- 38:53Speaker 2: think about that for a second. So was my affinity
- 38:57Speaker 2: for the town or was it for the franchise? And
- 39:01Speaker 2: I think for me at that time, it was for
- 39:04Speaker 2: the city. But the city the city is I should
- 39:08Speaker 2: say the town is deserving of these teams leading because
- 39:13Speaker 2: they did nothing. I shouldn't say nothing. Well, the town
- 39:17Speaker 2: did nothing significant to keep the A's, the Raiders and
- 39:23Speaker 2: even the Warriors to a degree in Oakland.
- 39:27Speaker 4: And didn't either.
- 39:29Speaker 1: Well that's just any consolations. But it got cricket Kitty.
- 39:35Speaker 2: I said Major.
- 39:37Speaker 1: I'm with Major everywhere else but here. But I didn't
- 39:40Speaker 1: even know how to play the game. I'm just kidding.
- 39:44Speaker 1: I'm just trying to make light. I'm in a good
- 39:46Speaker 1: mode all ready. To travel. I'm not gonna have Florida.
- 39:49Speaker 1: I'm not gonna have a lot of communications. I'm getting
- 39:51Speaker 1: it out of my system to night with all my
- 39:52Speaker 1: favorite people. Of a great take though, Wellie, that was fantastic,
- 39:57Speaker 1: thank you, thank you. And I've been to Oakland. I've
- 39:59Speaker 1: actually been a book to those buildings. And I'll tell
- 40:01Speaker 1: you one thing. I saw a Raiders game over at
- 40:03Speaker 1: that place, and well it was early. It was an
- 40:06Speaker 1: unbelievable place to go. And I saw the Warriors playing.
- 40:08Speaker 1: They tacked that place. So you know, you feel the
- 40:12Speaker 1: void there, and there's no question about Oakland did nothing
- 40:14Speaker 1: to keep it. It's a shame basically en a bottle
- 40:17Speaker 1: team blanded in Vegas. Both there. Yeah, right with that,
- 40:22Speaker 1: said Taylor, what you're in my town?
- 40:25Speaker 3: Well, the Tigers, of course, again as usual that they
- 40:29Speaker 3: still have the best record in all of Major League
- 40:31Speaker 3: Baseball forty seven and twenty seven. They lead the Cubs
- 40:35Speaker 3: and the Mets each by a by a game and
- 40:39Speaker 3: a half. For that top of the heap, Cubs and
- 40:43Speaker 3: Mets are twenty eight. The Tigers let the series versus
- 40:50Speaker 3: the Reds get away, but they rebounded nicely with a
- 40:53Speaker 3: seven to three win over the lowly Pittsburgh Pirates. Sorry, Willie,
- 40:57Speaker 3: but yeah they yeah they did. Eric Scoober was supposed
- 41:02Speaker 3: to pitch tonight, but that game was rained out. But
- 41:05Speaker 3: there's a doubleheader Scooba will pitching game one, Paul Skins
- 41:09Speaker 3: pitching game two. Yes, most people would have would have
- 41:14Speaker 3: thought that that school was Schemes first. Schemes would have
- 41:18Speaker 3: been a hot ticket. But seriously, the main goal is
- 41:21Speaker 3: to win the World Series, no matter what the circumstances,
- 41:24Speaker 3: no matter what the matches. Just take what you what
- 41:28Speaker 3: you take the cards you're dealt with, and try to
- 41:31Speaker 3: make the most of it, period and just rolled on
- 41:34Speaker 3: from there.
- 41:37Speaker 4: Jacob, Well, three things done the town.
- 41:40Speaker 5: First off, the Braids one to night over, let's see
- 41:44Speaker 5: the brazy the Mets tonight five nothing, So there's that
- 41:47Speaker 5: part right there.
- 41:48Speaker 4: So they're trying to bring themselves back. The second thing
- 41:52Speaker 4: is that.
- 41:53Speaker 5: That day have just they're officially most likely and I
- 41:57Speaker 5: will say it again, probably gonna have hockey in Atlanta.
- 42:00Speaker 5: So regardless of anything, it's gonna tear if it doesn't
- 42:04Speaker 5: work out.
- 42:04Speaker 4: One good thing that comes from this is gonna tear
- 42:06Speaker 4: down one of.
- 42:06Speaker 5: Those ridiculous out of date malls that they have about
- 42:10Speaker 5: two miles from me, so at least it's gonna look
- 42:13Speaker 5: a lot better in that area. Third thing, the whole
- 42:17Speaker 5: of the Falcons fan base getting so excited for Michael Pennick. Okay,
- 42:24Speaker 5: you have every right, you have every right. The guy's
- 42:27Speaker 5: got a wonderful arm, tremendous arms, frement is everything. He's
- 42:30Speaker 5: got some and he's got Bejon around him. They can
- 42:33Speaker 5: have a really good offense for the next year. But
- 42:36Speaker 5: here's the deal. I'm just saying this whatsoever because this
- 42:39Speaker 5: is what fans do, and they forget about this. If
- 42:42Speaker 5: you're gonna keep bringing up Tyler Shuck and he's by
- 42:45Speaker 5: the way, he is a lot better than Tyler Shuck.
- 42:47Speaker 5: I thought Tyler Shuck is the second rounder was ridiculous.
- 42:50Speaker 4: But here's the thing.
- 42:51Speaker 5: If you're gona keep bringing up Tyler Shuck having three
- 42:54Speaker 5: season ending surgeries in college.
- 42:56Speaker 4: You got to bring up Penixes two. You gotta bring
- 43:00Speaker 4: up Piggs too.
- 43:01Speaker 1: But they refuse.
- 43:01Speaker 5: You don't want that conversation. And that's the biggest issue
- 43:05Speaker 5: that they got to remember on this.
- 43:06Speaker 4: It's like, that's why you keep Kirk Cousins around.
- 43:10Speaker 1: You just don't know, Candy.
- 43:15Speaker 8: So I'm gonna do two because you know I'm gonna
- 43:18Speaker 8: start with Wisconsin. The winningest Wisconsin basketball coach in state history,
- 43:24Speaker 8: Jerry Pettigu, died at the age of eighty four. He
- 43:29Speaker 8: coached for over sixty years, and like I said, he
- 43:33Speaker 8: was the winningest coach. So rip to him and all
- 43:36Speaker 8: that he coached. Now, I we all know what happened
- 43:41Speaker 8: last night Stanley Cup. So here, Miami, here's a wake
- 43:46Speaker 8: up call. In the last thirty years, the Heat have
- 43:50Speaker 8: had three titles. The my Main Marlins have had two titles.
- 43:56Speaker 8: Now the Florida Panthers have two titles. Miami Dolphins, where
- 44:01Speaker 8: are you the last thirty years?
- 44:02Speaker 7: What have you done?
- 44:04Speaker 8: Zero AFC Championship appearances at all? Get your act together,
- 44:10Speaker 8: Miami Dolphins and do something about it.
- 44:14Speaker 1: Well, you know, I had a putnoe of the Miami thing.
- 44:16Speaker 1: Clayton McCullough by the way, was just announce as a
- 44:18Speaker 1: coach for the American National League All Star Team. He'll
- 44:21Speaker 1: rejoin Dave Roberts. He was a coach in the Dodgers
- 44:24Speaker 1: last year where he got to Miami.
- 44:25Speaker 10: Job.
- 44:26Speaker 1: So Clayton mccullo's good job. He's a great person. He
- 44:29Speaker 1: really is. Lily, you want to talk about one of
- 44:30Speaker 1: the nicest guys to work with, Clayton mccullo's class. I
- 44:33Speaker 1: love it every time I go there. He said, bring
- 44:35Speaker 1: on your tough questions and called me Scott. You know
- 44:38Speaker 1: my name right now? This guy and he right, Andy,
- 44:41Speaker 1: he knows me my name real well. We all know me.
- 44:43Speaker 1: What about there? Hey, Scott, how you doing. I'm ready
- 44:46Speaker 1: for you both. Pop him right down the metal, baby,
- 44:50Speaker 1: I'm telling you, glad you're going to the altar.
- 44:54Speaker 7: I also do want to say congratulations to Bill Zito,
- 44:58Speaker 7: and I really give you the credit for the Panthers
- 45:00Speaker 7: because you brought to Chuck, you brought Brad marsha On,
- 45:04Speaker 7: you brought Sam Bennett, you brought Sam Reinhardt, all to
- 45:08Speaker 7: you brought to I mean, you brought so many of
- 45:10Speaker 7: their key players to the Panthers. You deserve that win.
- 45:16Speaker 7: And kudos to the Panthers for going out and sharing
- 45:19Speaker 7: this celebration. I've seen pictures where one of the team
- 45:25Speaker 7: members took the Stanley Cup to his neighbors and was
- 45:27Speaker 7: knocking on doors. Look at here's the like bringing it
- 45:30Speaker 7: to the fans. Bringing it to the local people so
- 45:33Speaker 7: that they get a sense of it and can share
- 45:36Speaker 7: in the excitement.
- 45:38Speaker 8: That's what it's about, because the fans. If you don't
- 45:40Speaker 8: have the fans, then you know, what do you have?
- 45:43Speaker 8: So I really like that part of it.
- 45:46Speaker 1: Okay, George and camping.
- 45:48Speaker 10: On, Well, there's no joy in Mudville, the old saying
- 45:52Speaker 10: lent as Mighty Casey struck out where there's no joy
- 45:54Speaker 10: in hockey Town because again Steve Eiserman and Christopher Ella
- 45:59Speaker 10: Chefs rock out. Here we are again watching on television
- 46:04Speaker 10: another team, the back to back champion Panthers, do all
- 46:09Speaker 10: the celebrating. Well, hockey Town is quiet, and again the
- 46:13Speaker 10: Detroit Red Wings are just in a situation that nobody
- 46:18Speaker 10: could have guessed would happen. When things were flying high
- 46:21Speaker 10: and Stanley Cup banners were being flown from Joe Louis
- 46:24Speaker 10: Arena and Stanley cupps were being kissed at Hockey Town Cafe.
- 46:29Speaker 6: I went through all that, Scott knows.
- 46:32Speaker 10: You know, all you guys know that the Red Wings
- 46:35Speaker 10: were the talk of the NHL. But then all of
- 46:37Speaker 10: a sudden, salary caps, salary control things happen. Then things
- 46:44Speaker 10: went really bad in Detroit all of a sudden. But
- 46:47Speaker 10: the fact matter is that there's still hope. This team
- 46:50Speaker 10: has such an unbelievably loyal subscriber and season ticket base,
- 46:55Speaker 10: so there is hope.
- 46:56Speaker 6: There's hope in hockey town. Maybe something can happen.
- 46:59Speaker 10: But Boyle boy Heisman's got to make some moves this offseason,
- 47:02Speaker 10: no question about it, because this Detroit team cannot go
- 47:06Speaker 10: another year without missing the playoffs. Because if you don't
- 47:09Speaker 10: know this, in twenty twenty five, twenty six is the
- 47:13Speaker 10: one hundredth anniversary, and Scott and I are going to
- 47:17Speaker 10: get Ken Kell, the voice of the Red Wings, on
- 47:19Speaker 10: a future show on Sports Rap. But he's going to
- 47:21Speaker 10: talk about that the one hundredth anniversary and what the
- 47:24Speaker 10: Red Wings are going to celebrate.
- 47:25Speaker 6: But they got to celebrate with a making the playoffs.
- 47:29Speaker 6: That'll be the best gift they could give Detroit. Thank you.
- 47:35Speaker 1: What's that? Hire Scotty Bowman again, I go, I can't
- 47:40Speaker 1: go to a station breaker. Guys ended up guinting a timeout,
- 47:44Speaker 1: So if you want to put that up, will you
- 47:46Speaker 1: be the judge if you think that should go up?
- 47:49Speaker 8: And he's apologizing that it wasn't him using it, and
- 47:52Speaker 8: he apologizes so.
- 47:53Speaker 1: Okay, fair enough, he got time out. You give us
- 47:55Speaker 1: station breaks. We'll take this time out a few more topics.
- 47:58Speaker 1: We want to make sure we get out of here.

- 49:20Speaker 1: Okay, well a quick question. Have you ever been to Dubai?
- 49:26Speaker 2: Yes, yes, we went last year.
- 49:29Speaker 1: Well, do you know what. Here's a great to buy
- 49:32Speaker 1: story that I want to put out there, Just a
- 49:34Speaker 1: great thing that came across my wire. So since you
- 49:36Speaker 1: went there last year, this may give people a reason
- 49:39Speaker 1: I want to go there and maybe not stay here
- 49:41Speaker 1: if you don't like it. But here's the deal. But
- 49:44Speaker 1: just look at the salary looking like when you talk
- 49:48Speaker 1: about the salary, that looks like after taxes cat desk.
- 49:52Speaker 1: The gross syctem we're talking about a thousand is one
- 49:55Speaker 1: thousand dollars federal tax, you end up zero, state tax,
- 50:01Speaker 1: and Social Security is ends up at zero, Manicare tax
- 50:05Speaker 1: is zero. Total tax is zero. Net incomb one million. Okay,
- 50:11Speaker 1: so we're talking about one million zero, So the tax
- 50:14Speaker 1: rate is zero percent. That don't get any better than that.
- 50:17Speaker 1: People zero percent taxes, right, will we I mean, I
- 50:23Speaker 1: mean think about it. A million bucks takes you a
- 50:25Speaker 1: long way if you don't have to worry about being
- 50:27Speaker 1: tax Yeah. I pulled it out of here because I
- 50:31Speaker 1: think you once told me you wanted to buy and
- 50:33Speaker 1: when this came across my eyes, I had to put
- 50:35Speaker 1: it up there. So I'll repeat for those of you
- 50:37Speaker 1: go at on audio that went then I went a
- 50:39Speaker 1: little too quick. So you're again you're talking about looking
- 50:43Speaker 1: like after taxes with your growth income being a million bucks,
- 50:47Speaker 1: federal tax zero Well, zero's across the board between your
- 50:52Speaker 1: growth intome, federal tax, state tax, social Security, Medicare tax,
- 50:57Speaker 1: total taxes that income a million bucks text rate zero percent.
- 51:02Speaker 1: Now that's the kind of two said. You want to
- 51:04Speaker 1: have everybody zero percent. Any questions, comments or objections to this.
- 51:10Speaker 1: I want some of that zero percent. That's candy. Put
- 51:12Speaker 1: that on on the board. Against this is a B R, I, L,
- 51:16Speaker 1: L and T person. All right, that's the Dubai story.
- 51:20Speaker 1: Now we're going back to the baseball part of the program,
- 51:23Speaker 1: as we do like the talk baseball Baseball doats May first,
- 51:26Speaker 1: nineteen ninety one. Excuse me, Rickey Henderson passes lu Bronckt
- 51:31Speaker 1: for first place on the all time list, and then,
- 51:35Speaker 1: obviously April twenty third, nineteen eighty seven, Vince Coleman steals
- 51:39Speaker 1: home in the first inning against the New York Mets
- 51:43Speaker 1: within US and they end up winning US. The Mets
- 51:46Speaker 1: winner slucks Pastoty twelve to nine. So what are your
- 51:49Speaker 1: talks about the King of steels? You got Vince Coleman
- 51:53Speaker 1: goes out there and he steals home, and we know
- 51:57Speaker 1: that Rickey Henderson who played in that place behind and
- 52:00Speaker 1: Willie stole a lot of bags. And you know what,
- 52:04Speaker 1: I'm selling two good weeks with candy where nobody have
- 52:08Speaker 1: to worry about me for a while and I apologize
- 52:11Speaker 1: for nothing. So Willie, you're a baseball guy. We're talking
- 52:15Speaker 1: about Ricky Henderson. We're talking about Lou Rock who goes
- 52:18Speaker 1: on who was the first on the all time list.
- 52:20Speaker 1: How do you like that for stealing a couple of
- 52:22Speaker 1: topics off of Instagram, which is my shorts? Sometimes there
- 52:25Speaker 1: you go, yeah.
- 52:26Speaker 2: Get it, I get it, I can dig it. You
- 52:29Speaker 2: talk about records not just in baseball but in sports
- 52:34Speaker 2: that will probably never be broken, and Ricky Henderson holds
- 52:40Speaker 2: two of them with the all time steals record and
- 52:43Speaker 2: then the most stolen bases in the season. I think
- 52:46Speaker 2: he was one hundred and forty out of maybe one
- 52:49Speaker 2: hundred and fifty five or something like that. But if
- 52:53Speaker 2: you look at that, that is almost one stolen base
- 52:56Speaker 2: per game. You might be lucky if you get a
- 53:00Speaker 2: team to steal one base in a game these days.
- 53:04Speaker 2: And Vince Coleman, I think he was actually faster than
- 53:08Speaker 2: actually between Vince Coleman, Ricky Henderson, and lou Brock, Ricky
- 53:14Speaker 2: Henderson was probably the slowest of the three.
- 53:19Speaker 1: Wow Saint Louis Cardinals. Vince Coleman steals home as didn't matter,
- 53:24Speaker 1: that's win it anyways. Still figure Candy, how many stolen
- 53:28Speaker 1: bases did Rickey Henderson have?
- 53:30Speaker 8: He has one hundred and thirty. What he had in
- 53:33Speaker 8: the single season record for stolen bases was one hundred
- 53:36Speaker 8: and thirty and nineteen eighty two. He's the only player
- 53:39Speaker 8: in Ale history to steal one hundred bases in a season,
- 53:41Speaker 8: having done so three times eighty eighty two and eighty three.
- 53:45Speaker 7: His one thousand, four hundred and six career steals is
- 53:50Speaker 7: fifty percent higher than the previous record of nine hundred
- 53:55Speaker 7: and thirty eight by Lou Brock.
- 53:57Speaker 1: No, you have, for lou Brock actually met him Riverfront Stadium.
- 54:04Speaker 1: I actually met him at Riverfront Stadium many years ago
- 54:07Speaker 1: when I was covering the Dodgers and the Reds, and
- 54:10Speaker 1: he was actually there for an old timers game. So
- 54:12Speaker 1: Lou Brock. Of course, Ricky Hender fourteen hundred and six
- 54:15Speaker 1: steal restent piece with he We lost him late last year.
- 54:19Speaker 1: Any Georgia Emmy thoughts about these two incredibly fast stealing individuals.
- 54:26Speaker 10: No, I just I can remember lou Brock way back
- 54:29Speaker 10: in the sixty eight World Series against the Tigers, and yeah,
- 54:34Speaker 10: you know his famous the famous armor of Willie Horton
- 54:37Speaker 10: and left field throwing out lou Brock at home plate.
- 54:40Speaker 10: But other than that, I mean, this guy had a
- 54:42Speaker 10: phenomenal career. I mean I admired them.
- 54:45Speaker 1: I mean, and a.
- 54:46Speaker 10: Little bit of jealousy too, because we all know how
- 54:49Speaker 10: how slow footed the Tigers were, with the exception of
- 54:52Speaker 10: Jake Wood around the floor.
- 54:54Speaker 6: But you know, those guys were just incredible.
- 54:57Speaker 10: You mentioned three great ones there, vince Ca Coleman and
- 55:01Speaker 10: then of course Brock and Ricky Henderson, just great, great athletes,
- 55:05Speaker 10: and they changed the they changed the game, the complexity
- 55:08Speaker 10: of the game, the game change. And I wish there
- 55:12Speaker 10: would be more stealing now. Like you said, Willie, there's
- 55:15Speaker 10: just teams that just don't do it. In detroits one
- 55:17Speaker 10: of them that does very little stealing.
- 55:20Speaker 3: And he thought, so loves this one, Taylor, Well, Ricky Henderson,
- 55:25Speaker 3: of course, it's it's still the fastest ever in my eyes,
- 55:30Speaker 3: no matter what people saying. Kenny pointed this out fifty
- 55:36Speaker 3: percent higher than Lou Brock historically of all time. That
- 55:40Speaker 3: proves it right there. End of story.
- 55:43Speaker 1: You go, Jacob, you the story of following him before
- 55:45Speaker 1: we go.
- 55:46Speaker 4: To that story of Ricky Henderson.
- 55:48Speaker 5: When they did they showed a John three to sixteen sign,
- 55:51Speaker 5: he says, I'm not really interested in John hitting three sixteen.
- 55:53Speaker 4: I'm Ricky at in three thirty. I enjoyed that one
- 55:58Speaker 4: from him.
- 55:58Speaker 5: It's like he's although, but really overall, I got to
- 56:02Speaker 5: think about this too, Vince Coleman, he only played twelve years.
- 56:06Speaker 4: He had twelve years and seven hundred and fifty of
- 56:08Speaker 4: stolen bases.
- 56:09Speaker 1: I think he had a gruesome leg injury too. Yeah, yeah,
- 56:13Speaker 1: I don't think it was there was the same after
- 56:14Speaker 1: that injury.
- 56:15Speaker 5: But absolutely, But think of it this way, he had
- 56:19Speaker 5: almost all He had probably sixty percent of the steel
- 56:22Speaker 5: with White Herzey.
- 56:24Speaker 1: Yeah, I believe that. Well know that. Wait, well yeah,
- 56:28Speaker 1: we all know the waity was big on the running game,
- 56:30Speaker 1: that's for sure. Yeah.
- 56:31Speaker 5: Yeah, And it's like he had sixty percent of those
- 56:34Speaker 5: and all that kind of stuff. Ricky had fourteen hundred
- 56:37Speaker 5: and six in twenty five seasons. That just shows he
- 56:40Speaker 5: was an a but he was an absolute athlete. But really, overall,
- 56:45Speaker 5: what if Vince got twenty five could he have could
- 56:48Speaker 5: he have broken sixteen hundred and seventeen hundred if he
- 56:52Speaker 5: would have had just the knupper he at people that
- 56:53Speaker 5: would have stolen bases he got that's seven hundred and
- 56:56Speaker 5: fifty and twelve years. So could he have busted it
- 57:02Speaker 5: if he didn't have those gruesome leg Actually.
- 57:03Speaker 1: Oh yeah, no, I mean that's true. That'll be a
- 57:06Speaker 1: debate that lingers on forever. All right, let's go to show. Hey,
- 57:09Speaker 1: oh Tommy, who made his first appearance on the Hill
- 57:11Speaker 1: earlier in the week, obviously Era nine point zero zero
- 57:15Speaker 1: one one versus San Diego one. He pitched two hits,
- 57:18Speaker 1: one wild pitch, one check by five walks in those strikeouts.
- 57:24Speaker 1: So all right, Willie, what are your talks about his debut.
- 57:26Speaker 1: It's been a while, Timmy John surgery and all, but
- 57:29Speaker 1: it was good to see him out there. And I
- 57:30Speaker 1: just wonder how much under he's gonna pitch. But as
- 57:33Speaker 1: long as he can, sure they will about his debut.
- 57:37Speaker 2: Yeah, as a fan of the sport, I love to
- 57:42Speaker 2: see it. But at the same time, as a fan
- 57:46Speaker 2: who absolutely despises the Dodgers, I don't have to ever
- 57:52Speaker 2: see him pitch again. But that's just me.
- 57:56Speaker 1: Oh that's okay, that's fair. What about you and Taylor?
- 57:59Speaker 1: What do you talk about his attack on the hill.
- 58:02Speaker 3: He's only getting warmed up, That's that's one thing for sure.
- 58:06Speaker 3: I think he'll redevelop as a pitcher, but but for now,
- 58:10Speaker 3: it's a hitter. He's been invincible. That's the truth.
- 58:14Speaker 1: Okay, Jacob, he can't.
- 58:18Speaker 5: I mean, we know what he is on this, but
- 58:20Speaker 5: he's going to get himself older, and when you get older,
- 58:22Speaker 5: it's just a little bit of an issue. I don't
- 58:25Speaker 5: I say, if he's in a World Series again, use
- 58:28Speaker 5: him as an extra pitcher. I mean, he did the
- 58:30Speaker 5: one inning this last time or whatever, and he might
- 58:32Speaker 5: be a heck of a weapon in the World Series,
- 58:35Speaker 5: you know, for something along those lines. But I don't
- 58:38Speaker 5: want six seven innings out of him anymore. I really do,
- 58:40Speaker 5: especially especially there might be a time, as you got,
- 58:43Speaker 5: especially now with Aaron Judge Aaron Judges in the three eighties,
- 58:48Speaker 5: three seventy three nineties, that whatever, you don't think that
- 58:51Speaker 5: show Ham is not not capable of that. It's like
- 58:56Speaker 5: you're not. But he's not going to get those while
- 58:57Speaker 5: he's pitching. Also, and then you could also effect him
- 59:01Speaker 5: if he has to do another Tommy John somewhere down
- 59:02Speaker 5: the line. I say, quit trying to beat bag Bruce
- 59:06Speaker 5: records and do all that kind of stuff, because you're
- 59:08Speaker 5: both that ninety four wins. Quit doing all that and
- 59:11Speaker 5: just focus. He's got his rain, go go for some
- 59:13Speaker 5: more rings.
- 59:15Speaker 1: Enough candy.
- 59:17Speaker 8: His first pitch was ninety seven point six mile power fastball,
- 59:23Speaker 8: low in the strike zone he reached. He only threw
- 59:27Speaker 8: twenty eight pitches, but he threw one hundred point two
- 59:31Speaker 8: on the radar gun in his first outing back. That
- 59:38Speaker 8: that's I mean, as I've sat and watched Sandy al Kantara,
- 59:45Speaker 8: he came back from Tommy John and this is his
- 59:47Speaker 8: first year back again and he had he had the
- 59:51Speaker 8: same similar outing as show hated in the beginning. They're
- 59:55Speaker 8: not They're not as effective. It takes time. We can't
- 59:58Speaker 8: expect these guys that were cy Young Award winners before
- 1:00:03Speaker 8: to come back.
- 1:00:03Speaker 7: And just have it lights out right from the start. Yes,
- 1:00:07Speaker 7: the speed is there, but their effectiveness just isn't there.
- 1:00:11Speaker 7: And Sandy is having a hard year coming back from
- 1:00:16Speaker 7: this and having the same results as what he had before.
- 1:00:20Speaker 7: I'm just going to say it.
- 1:00:22Speaker 8: I think I read a stat the other day that
- 1:00:25Speaker 8: thirty six percent of the major league pitchers have had
- 1:00:27Speaker 8: Tommy John surgery at this point that are playing out
- 1:00:32Speaker 8: there right now.
- 1:00:33Speaker 9: Fair enough Georgia final word on the top of August
- 1:00:36Speaker 9: twenty third, twenty twenty three, and that was when the
- 1:00:41Speaker 9: last time he pitched in a big league game.
- 1:00:45Speaker 10: I'm not disappointed Scott. I think that he did okay.
- 1:00:49Speaker 10: Obviously there was not a lot of pressure on him
- 1:00:52Speaker 10: in the first inning, as opposed to bringing him innute
- 1:00:55Speaker 10: to clean up or save the game where they would
- 1:00:57Speaker 10: not want They did not want to do that, of course,
- 1:01:00Speaker 10: but the jury is still let's face it. I mean,
- 1:01:02Speaker 10: we know what he can do as a hitter, as
- 1:01:05Speaker 10: a slugger, a tremendous, tremendous effect on the game and
- 1:01:09Speaker 10: in the Dodgers line up, so I'm sure that they're
- 1:01:12Speaker 10: going to take a very cautious approach to this.
- 1:01:14Speaker 6: That's all I'm saying.
- 1:01:16Speaker 1: What we're going to do right now is we're going
- 1:01:18Speaker 1: to give everybody an opportunity to their party shots, and
- 1:01:20Speaker 1: I'm going to leave Jacob with his fund and his
- 1:01:22Speaker 1: fundment towards the very end because I like giving him
- 1:01:25Speaker 1: the final word on a lot of things, because obviously
- 1:01:27Speaker 1: he has some pretty good topics. Fair enough, that's how
- 1:01:30Speaker 1: we'll do it. So we'll start off with our party shots.
- 1:01:32Speaker 1: I'm going to lead off this time because this is
- 1:01:34Speaker 1: something that I think is really important. That the grass
- 1:01:36Speaker 1: isn't always greener on the other side. And you're going
- 1:01:38Speaker 1: to understand what I mean in just a moment. The
- 1:01:41Speaker 1: Florida Board of Governors has rejected former Michigan President Santo
- 1:01:46Speaker 1: Ono for the presidency of the University of Florida. A
- 1:01:50Speaker 1: learning experience for problems. The learning experience for the whole
- 1:01:54Speaker 1: thing is your problems. Catch up with you when you
- 1:01:58Speaker 1: run from them, which is very very true. Whatever problems
- 1:02:01Speaker 1: he had, you can't go ahead and think you're gonna
- 1:02:04Speaker 1: leave ann Arbor and the snow and the ice and
- 1:02:07Speaker 1: expect to go to the beaches anywhere else, because it
- 1:02:10Speaker 1: isn't that way. Because here's the thing he had come under.
- 1:02:14Speaker 1: He had actually come under criticism from conservatives in Florida
- 1:02:18Speaker 1: who were troubled by his previous support of diversity, equity
- 1:02:22Speaker 1: and inclusion initiatives. And when you run across those problems,
- 1:02:27Speaker 1: you leave at president's job at Michigan, you go to Florida,
- 1:02:31Speaker 1: and then you don't get it that problem because where
- 1:02:34Speaker 1: is he going next? Michigan not bringing him back, and
- 1:02:39Speaker 1: Florida didn't want him. Sorry, you got a national championship
- 1:02:43Speaker 1: at ann Arbor and does Swamp doesn't want you, No
- 1:02:48Speaker 1: Billy Naypier. But you had Jim Harbaugh go figure Santol.
- 1:02:52Speaker 1: I wish you well at your next occupation because it's
- 1:02:56Speaker 1: not going to be again and you're not going back
- 1:02:58Speaker 1: to ann Arbor, all right? Will parting shots?
- 1:03:03Speaker 2: Well, I mean you, since you brought up diversity, equity
- 1:03:09Speaker 2: and inclusion, let me say this, and I'm not gonna
- 1:03:16Speaker 2: get political or churchy or any of those things, because
- 1:03:19Speaker 2: for me, it's a matter of right and wrong. Okay,
- 1:03:22Speaker 2: I don't care what color you are. I don't care
- 1:03:25Speaker 2: what your religion is. I don't care what your political
- 1:03:29Speaker 2: affiliation is. I could care less if you are a liberal,
- 1:03:33Speaker 2: or if you are a conservative, or if you are
- 1:03:36Speaker 2: a moderate. I don't care who you love. I don't
- 1:03:40Speaker 2: care about the person that you love and what they
- 1:03:44Speaker 2: look like. I don't care about any of those things.
- 1:03:48Speaker 2: And if anybody knows me after doing shows for all
- 1:03:51Speaker 2: these years, they know that. So for the guy that
- 1:03:55Speaker 2: came on earlier and said what he said, you know,
- 1:04:00Speaker 2: if you want me to look at who you are,
- 1:04:02Speaker 2: show me your friends. So if your friends are saying
- 1:04:06Speaker 2: that and your friends with them, then to me, you
- 1:04:10Speaker 2: are more the complicit in the situation, and you become
- 1:04:13Speaker 2: a part of the problem and not the solution. People
- 1:04:16Speaker 2: like me that look like me, we are trying to
- 1:04:21Speaker 2: be a part of a solution that I don't think
- 1:04:24Speaker 2: we're ever gonna see in my lifetime. And that is okay,
- 1:04:29Speaker 2: but that does not mean that I'm going to stop.
- 1:04:32Speaker 2: Earlier today on Twitter, I posted a quote and it
- 1:04:38Speaker 2: basically said this, in order for us to become what
- 1:04:43Speaker 2: we want to become, we have to unbecome what we
- 1:04:47Speaker 2: currently are. And some people are just so set in
- 1:04:50Speaker 2: their ways to where they don't even have the mental
- 1:04:54Speaker 2: aptitude to see past their raggedy sales. And I've been there,
- 1:05:00Speaker 2: see past our raggedy sales in order to find out that,
- 1:05:04Speaker 2: you know what, there's way more things that we have
- 1:05:06Speaker 2: in common than people think.
- 1:05:09Speaker 1: Excellent, take it really is, Wily, thanks for coming behind
- 1:05:12Speaker 1: this person who got in here. And it's just too
- 1:05:15Speaker 1: bad we had to see it tonight, But I'm glad
- 1:05:17Speaker 1: that you were able to make a voice of strong opinion.
- 1:05:21Speaker 1: And I think what you did there is absolutely dynamite.
- 1:05:24Speaker 1: I really do will and it's for Santo. Oh no, no,
- 1:05:27Speaker 1: this is a great thing. If I bring up certain
- 1:05:29Speaker 1: controversial topics, I love it when you come back behind me, okay,
- 1:05:33Speaker 1: And that's why I always lean on you for these
- 1:05:36Speaker 1: first because I expect that thing called great minds, thinking
- 1:05:39Speaker 1: like and you seem to have that one down back.
- 1:05:42Speaker 1: It's okay if I come up with a topic and
- 1:05:44Speaker 1: you have something that comes to mind and bring it out.
- 1:05:46Speaker 1: That's what I love about you. Billy, I swear to
- 1:05:48Speaker 1: God as a friend and a brother. You and I
- 1:05:51Speaker 1: both understand a lot of things. We've lived a lot
- 1:05:54Speaker 1: in a lot of different levels, and that's just unbelievable.
- 1:05:56Speaker 1: You deserve to be applauded for that. And if Martin
- 1:05:59Speaker 1: Luther's their tea, can you a hug? He do it
- 1:06:01Speaker 1: wherever he's at christ and doctor Kaine. But doctor Kane
- 1:06:04Speaker 1: just you know, University of Florida doesn't a nice campus one. Okay, Taylor,
- 1:06:10Speaker 1: what's your friend? Well?
- 1:06:15Speaker 3: I heard George mentioned and talk about the the Red Wings. Uh,
- 1:06:19Speaker 3: while the Panthers were winning back to one, back to
- 1:06:22Speaker 3: back Stanley Cup championships. I got to remind you and Jacob,
- 1:06:27Speaker 3: the Red Wings already have Todd McLellan as their head coach.
- 1:06:31Speaker 3: He he reminded the team, He reminded the media that
- 1:06:34Speaker 3: the team was lacking toughness and that's exactly what they
- 1:06:38Speaker 3: actually need to have. No matter no matter how they
- 1:06:42Speaker 3: fare in this upcoming NHL now current NHL offseason, whether
- 1:06:48Speaker 3: it's the draft or free agency, they have to play
- 1:06:51Speaker 3: tougher or not be a bunch of whiney presses, if
- 1:06:55Speaker 3: you know what I mean. Dylan Larkin, for example, has
- 1:06:58Speaker 3: to be better for any adversity on the ice, whether
- 1:07:05Speaker 3: it be on or off the ice, whether it be
- 1:07:08Speaker 3: against the referees being against him and his mind, or
- 1:07:13Speaker 3: not getting any momentum of the dead at the trade deadline.
- 1:07:16Speaker 3: Get over that stuff, Dylan, like I mentioned before, get
- 1:07:21Speaker 3: tougher physically and mentally, and be more aggressive on the
- 1:07:26Speaker 3: ice and yell at more chances to win and make
- 1:07:29Speaker 3: the playoffs.
- 1:07:30Speaker 1: Earn it, period, Give me that passion, Taylor, earn it,
- 1:07:36Speaker 1: tailing it good stuff. George Morton, well leave Jacob let
- 1:07:40Speaker 1: because then he gets his fun and fun a moment.
- 1:07:47Speaker 10: One of the things that we see a lot is
- 1:07:50Speaker 10: the contraction of our sports broadcasters, and this one really
- 1:07:55Speaker 10: hits home for me and Scott. You know, we saw
- 1:07:58Speaker 10: John Keating having to retire, We saw Mickey Yorke being
- 1:08:02Speaker 10: forced out of his job, and now our dear friend
- 1:08:04Speaker 10: Trevor Thompson is losing his job as a commentator for
- 1:08:10Speaker 10: what we now call fan Dual Sports.
- 1:08:12Speaker 3: In Detroit commentary as a report, It's.
- 1:08:16Speaker 6: Okay, this is my job, okay, Taylor.
- 1:08:21Speaker 10: Trevor Thompson is a man that should not be treated
- 1:08:25Speaker 10: this way and neither should Mickey Yorke or John Keating.
- 1:08:29Speaker 10: I know, John, you said you officially retired, but I'm sorry,
- 1:08:32Speaker 10: I don't know if that's one hundred percent true, but
- 1:08:34Speaker 10: I'll take you at your word. We are sick of
- 1:08:38Speaker 10: sports broadcasters who earn their keep in this town being
- 1:08:41Speaker 10: forced to retire like Bernie Smile of it, or being
- 1:08:44Speaker 10: shoved out the door. And uh, it's just getting ridiculous
- 1:08:48Speaker 10: and it has to stop.
- 1:08:50Speaker 6: You know you you have budgets.
- 1:08:52Speaker 10: Yeah, I know that, and you have only certain amount
- 1:08:54Speaker 10: of money to go around. But listen, Detroit is one
- 1:08:57Speaker 10: of the top sports towns in America.
- 1:08:59Speaker 6: We know that we all have. So what you got
- 1:09:01Speaker 6: to do is you got to make sure.
- 1:09:03Speaker 10: You have room and put on the air these great voices.
- 1:09:08Speaker 6: Don't take them off the air, keep them on the air.
- 1:09:11Speaker 6: That's it.
- 1:09:12Speaker 1: Well, I've always told Trevor Thompson, the best thing that's
- 1:09:14Speaker 1: gonna happen to you now is you get a hockey
- 1:09:16Speaker 1: job nationally. He's that good, I think, Trevor, Well, I'll
- 1:09:19Speaker 1: probably reach out to any neck there. So let no, no,
- 1:09:22Speaker 1: I'm leave me what I'm thinking about him. So now
- 1:09:24Speaker 1: I'll send him some great videos all over the place
- 1:09:26Speaker 1: and me going to this grat thing. You'll see. Hey,
- 1:09:29Speaker 1: at least you can travel. But anyway, I love Trevor Thomson.
- 1:09:32Speaker 1: I love him all. Trevor is like a brother and me.
- 1:09:34Speaker 1: Every time I get sick, he's always praying. It seems
- 1:09:36Speaker 1: like you're praying every time. Anyway, But spell Trevor Thompson
- 1:09:39Speaker 1: if you ever meet this guy, to me, he's a
- 1:09:41Speaker 1: person that you can always look for it. How do
- 1:09:44Speaker 1: you define the word class t R E V O
- 1:09:46Speaker 1: R T h O M P s O N. Trevor,
- 1:09:49Speaker 1: if you're a subscriber to this, which I think you are,
- 1:09:51Speaker 1: you're hearing it and you're gonna hear it from me
- 1:09:53Speaker 1: any day through tech. God love you, Trevor. Okay, on
- 1:09:56Speaker 1: to Katie and then Jacob, and then he gets a
- 1:09:58Speaker 1: fund and funded moment, and and I'm planning to get
- 1:10:00Speaker 1: Willie out by bedtime. So I've better keep my big
- 1:10:04Speaker 1: mouse shut and do my more my mind talking on
- 1:10:06Speaker 1: the road, Dad, I.
- 1:10:08Speaker 7: Know we talked a little bit about this yesterday on
- 1:10:11Speaker 7: Inside the Pigskin, But I just want to say congratulations
- 1:10:15Speaker 7: to Cornell Powell. He is now the first player in
- 1:10:19Speaker 7: history to win a college football national championship twice, two
- 1:10:26Speaker 7: times Super Bowl champion, and if you didn't know this,
- 1:10:30Speaker 7: he won a UFL championship on some on this past weekend,
- 1:10:36Speaker 7: UH with the DC Defenders. First person to do all
- 1:10:40Speaker 7: three of those, so kudos to him.
- 1:10:45Speaker 1: All Right, well, I'm gonna say my reinforcement moment of
- 1:10:48Speaker 1: the show go to Dubai zero Fell to get that
- 1:10:53Speaker 1: in it. Go ahead, Jacob, because I know you're gonna
- 1:10:56Speaker 1: get your parting shot. Then you get your saying Stephen A.
- 1:11:02Speaker 4: Smith.
- 1:11:06Speaker 5: People are going up to you a little bit for
- 1:11:08Speaker 5: the whole playing solitaire on a time out on a
- 1:11:13Speaker 5: time out of the Indiana and Oklahoma City game.
- 1:11:16Speaker 1: We know why.
- 1:11:17Speaker 5: A lot of it is jealousy. You are making you
- 1:11:19Speaker 5: one hundreds of million. So but here's the thing though
- 1:11:24Speaker 5: I don't have an issue with it myself, but personally,
- 1:11:27Speaker 5: here's the thing from it.
- 1:11:28Speaker 4: It looks lazy. You were a journalist, and a very
- 1:11:34Speaker 4: very very very very very.
- 1:11:35Speaker 5: Hard working journalist for a long time. You work your
- 1:11:38Speaker 5: way up to where you are right now, but now
- 1:11:41Speaker 5: you look like you basically look like the guy who
- 1:11:44Speaker 5: got two hundred million dollars and hits two thirty four.
- 1:11:48Speaker 5: You look, that's what it looks like to a lot
- 1:11:50Speaker 5: of people. You if you're in basketball, you're fine. But
- 1:11:55Speaker 5: all the subjects you're nothing. You don't study, and that's.
- 1:11:59Speaker 1: The big thing.
- 1:11:59Speaker 5: But here's the big deal about this too. You're looking
- 1:12:02Speaker 5: to do politics. You're looking to get yourself as a
- 1:12:06Speaker 5: possible presidential candidate. And no matter what you're saying, that's
- 1:12:09Speaker 5: what you're looking into. Because you're showing up on Bill
- 1:12:12Speaker 5: Maher and you've showing up in all these other places.
- 1:12:15Speaker 5: This is ain't gonna help you. This isn't gonna help you whatsoever.
- 1:12:20Speaker 5: Because people are gonna show in the middle of all that.
- 1:12:24Speaker 5: They're gonna show you with that bone in your hand
- 1:12:27Speaker 5: doing that in the middle of time out instead of,
- 1:12:28Speaker 5: you know, studying things. They're gonna wonder if you're gonna
- 1:12:31Speaker 5: do that during anything in the White House, any kind
- 1:12:34Speaker 5: of meeting, any.
- 1:12:34Speaker 4: Of that kind of stuff.
- 1:12:37Speaker 5: When you do something like that and you're shown on camera,
- 1:12:40Speaker 5: it looks like you're handed everything, even though you weren't.
- 1:12:44Speaker 5: You weren't handed everything. You worked for so many years,
- 1:12:47Speaker 5: you had to get fired from ESPN one time. You've
- 1:12:50Speaker 5: worked your way up. But you know this isn't a
- 1:12:54Speaker 5: world that that This is a world that has like
- 1:12:56Speaker 5: a fish, you know, basically they have the what's the
- 1:13:01Speaker 5: word for it, they know, you know, like this anyway,
- 1:13:06Speaker 5: I'm thinking about it for a second here, But they

- 1:13:24Speaker 5: You're gonna wonder are you gonna do that in the
- 1:13:25Speaker 5: White House? Say that you wont trust me who we
- 1:13:29Speaker 5: have in the White House? Now, yes, you can win,
