- 0:00Speaker 1: Yeah, that.
- 0:02Speaker 2: Chuck Norris was chasing the Tyrannosaurus Rex.
- 0:05Speaker 1: The rex was not chasing the jeep. Murray, Murray, you there.
- 0:09Speaker 1: You love sandwiches. Huh, Let's go to eighty. It was bo.
- 0:16Speaker 3: Wow that Prime Time.
- 0:17Speaker 1: Maybe I had a crush on Betty Rubbell.
- 0:19Speaker 2: I honestly, until after the segment ended and we went
- 0:22Speaker 2: to commercial break, had no idea that Jonathan Coachman was black.
- 0:25Speaker 3: He caught them the game last night, although they won
- 0:28Speaker 3: the game.
- 0:29Speaker 1: You're listening to Stu Gotts in Company. We are off
- 0:33Speaker 1: radio this week.
- 0:33Speaker 2: It is Stugotts in Company, presented by FanDuel and the
- 0:36Speaker 2: FanDuel Sportsbook is he.
- 0:38Speaker 1: We are going to do something very, very exciting.
- 0:41Speaker 2: I have been gathering a something to Ponder file for
- 0:44Speaker 2: about fifteen years now on the radio, and see we
- 0:48Speaker 2: are going to open up that file. Taylor has the
- 0:50Speaker 2: actual file, so we're going to open it up and
- 0:53Speaker 2: discuss some of the things. I said to stash away
- 0:56Speaker 2: for a rainy day because we're in August, we're in
- 0:59Speaker 2: the dog days of summer. It rains every day down here,
- 1:02Speaker 2: and I felt like this was the right time to
- 1:04Speaker 2: open the something to Ponder file.
- 1:06Speaker 1: How do you feel about that? I love it. I
- 1:08Speaker 1: like the Rainy Day emergency file. I also am afraid.
- 1:12Speaker 1: I feel like we've done this once before. Yes, this
- 1:14Speaker 1: sound right here, this is literally the sound that I
- 1:17Speaker 1: fall asleep to every night. Really, Yes, on a black
- 1:20Speaker 1: screen on YouTube on the YouTube set. Yes, and this
- 1:24Speaker 1: I might fall asleep during this conversation. Don't take offense.
- 1:27Speaker 2: Wait, so you don't go with, like, you know, a
- 1:29Speaker 2: nice beach front setting with the waves and all that.
- 1:32Speaker 1: You want a black screez. So I used to do
- 1:34Speaker 1: on my phone just the white noise machine, and I
- 1:38Speaker 1: used to go with crashing waves. But the problem with this,
- 1:40Speaker 1: I also feel like I've explained this before. But maybe
- 1:42Speaker 1: I'm just going crazy with the crashing wave situation. If
- 1:45Speaker 1: I'm falling asleep, if I could recognize the pattern in
- 1:48Speaker 1: the sound, yeah, I can't calm down. I'll just start
- 1:51Speaker 1: repeating the pattern in my head over and over again,
- 1:53Speaker 1: or recognizing it over and over again. So I need
- 1:55Speaker 1: something that to me doesn't have a pattern. And you know,
- 1:58Speaker 1: the rain with the random thunder, no pattern to it,
- 2:01Speaker 1: screens jet black, it's lovely. Wow? All right?
- 2:04Speaker 3: Uh, how do you feel about that? Telling you're smiling.
- 2:06Speaker 3: I see you smiling there.
- 2:08Speaker 1: What are you doing? You sleep with the TV on? Right? Yeah?
- 2:10Speaker 4: One, I'm just laughing at how big this folder is.
- 2:14Speaker 4: And it just says stashed away for a rainy day.
- 2:18Speaker 2: It's the something to pond their file, I mean. And
- 2:22Speaker 2: so today is a rainy day. What is the first
- 2:24Speaker 2: topic we have stashed away?
- 2:27Speaker 4: The first topic is should a player be able to
- 2:30Speaker 4: win the MVP for not playing?
- 2:34Speaker 1: Wow? I want to play a guest and game as
- 2:36Speaker 1: to who the heck we were referring to give you
- 2:39Speaker 1: a sports? Oh you want to guess? Yeah?
- 2:41Speaker 4: NFL?
- 2:43Speaker 1: Is it to no?
- 2:45Speaker 4: This past season? I believe it was.
- 2:47Speaker 1: Oh okay, So which team did well without their main
- 2:50Speaker 1: player or the opposite? Oh? Yes, oh just went in
- 2:54Speaker 1: the tank because they missed their best player. Was it
- 2:56Speaker 1: not the Chiefs?
- 2:57Speaker 4: That?
- 2:57Speaker 1: No? Who was it?
- 2:58Speaker 3: No?
- 2:59Speaker 4: Stu Bengals? Yeah, Steve loves Joe Burrow. He loves giving
- 3:04Speaker 4: Joe Burrow credit. He said that he would give Joe
- 3:07Speaker 4: Burrow the MVP award. And then we stashed away should
- 3:10Speaker 4: a player be able to win the MVP for not playing?
- 3:13Speaker 1: Yep?
- 3:13Speaker 3: Sometimes when you're not playing, your.
- 3:16Speaker 1: Value really comes out.
- 3:18Speaker 2: And so in the case of Joe Burrow, he's almost
- 3:21Speaker 2: as valuable when he's not playing as he is when
- 3:23Speaker 2: he is playing.
- 3:24Speaker 1: About that, I'm not thinking of his inevitable Hall of
- 3:26Speaker 1: Fame induction. Somebody from this team last year, he was like, Yeah,
- 3:30Speaker 1: we were terrible and it was just because of him.
- 3:32Speaker 1: In the locker room, we were all like MVP whenever
- 3:35Speaker 1: he showed up, and it made us feel better.
- 3:39Speaker 3: So what's the conclusion here, ken a player?
- 3:42Speaker 2: Since we're pondering ken a player win an MVP while
- 3:46Speaker 2: not playing.
- 3:47Speaker 1: I can see this scenario, right, So let's say let's
- 3:50Speaker 1: just use Joe Burrow. Let's say Joe Burrow plays the
- 3:53Speaker 1: first ten games of the season, is a sparkling nine
- 3:57Speaker 1: to one, all right, has in ten games, Let's say,
- 4:00Speaker 1: has you know, near four thousand yards and has a
- 4:05Speaker 1: crazy TV interception ratio, and then he gets hurt, and
- 4:09Speaker 1: then the Bengals lose their next seven, right, and they
- 4:12Speaker 1: end the season nine to eight. Yes, I think he'd
- 4:14Speaker 1: be top.
- 4:14Speaker 3: Three in MVP, right, So, but he didn't play half
- 4:17Speaker 3: the season, but.
- 4:19Speaker 1: His value became so obvious and he was amazing through
- 4:22Speaker 1: the first ten.
- 4:23Speaker 2: This actually happened with Phil Simms back back in the
- 4:26Speaker 2: eighties or ninety one, I think where they were not
- 4:28Speaker 2: in one or ten and one. He was in the
- 4:30Speaker 2: MVP conversation and then he got hurt and Jeff Hostetler
- 4:34Speaker 2: came in and they didn't miss a beat.
- 4:36Speaker 1: Sad they won the Super Bowl. Worst possible scenario because
- 4:41Speaker 1: then Phil Simms becomes just another guy. Hey, you were great.
- 4:44Speaker 1: Oh no, this guy can do it too. Never mind, right,
- 4:46Speaker 1: mikey A, how do you feel about this?
- 4:49Speaker 5: I would love to read the stats of a of
- 4:51Speaker 5: a really bad team and then just be like, see,
- 4:54Speaker 5: if they had their quarterback, they'd be there. Like suppose
- 4:56Speaker 5: Drake May were to get hurt before the season started, right,
- 5:00Speaker 5: and they'd be like, oh, they were super Bowl team
- 5:02Speaker 5: and then they go, you know two in what is it?
- 5:04Speaker 6: Two and fifteen?
- 5:05Speaker 1: Yes, tell me he's not the MVP. He is. To
- 5:07Speaker 1: go back to last year and take it away from
- 5:09Speaker 1: U who wasn't Stafford yep, and to give it to
- 5:12Speaker 1: Drake May, then well I think Burrow deserved it.
- 5:15Speaker 4: My favorite thing from this hypocrisy here is Stu Gotts
- 5:19Speaker 4: wanting to give the award to Joe Burrow for being injured.
- 5:23Speaker 4: But when Andre Dawson won MVP for being on a
- 5:26Speaker 4: bad team.
- 5:27Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 5:27Speaker 4: Stu Gotts was at the front of the line saying,
- 5:29Speaker 4: that is a bad job by MLB and the voters.
- 5:33Speaker 4: They're youngster guy giving him the MVP.
- 5:35Speaker 1: He played the full one sixty two, I.
- 5:36Speaker 2: Believe, But you cannot be an MVP. The definition of
- 5:41Speaker 2: MVP is who is most valuable? Valuable is the key
- 5:44Speaker 2: word to their team? And how valuable can you be
- 5:47Speaker 2: when your team finishes in the last place?
- 5:49Speaker 1: Were you really that heated in nineteen eighty seven?
- 5:51Speaker 4: Yes?
- 5:51Speaker 2: And then I called Andre Dawson and asked I told
- 5:53Speaker 2: him what I was writing, and I said, Hawk, can
- 5:55Speaker 2: you write a rebuttal to this? And he did it
- 5:57Speaker 2: with a smile on his face. I felt terrible that
- 5:59Speaker 2: I wrote the chapter. Still got booked dot cup Stancing.
- 6:05Speaker 2: All right, so, Kim, are we putting this file away?
- 6:07Speaker 2: Have we decided that the answer is just flatly yes.
- 6:09Speaker 4: Yes, I think you should be able to Okay, yep, so.
- 6:12Speaker 1: To will it ever happen? Different questions?
- 6:15Speaker 6: Wow?
- 6:16Speaker 1: No, it's got to be like a very over season.
- 6:18Speaker 4: Yeah, the voters would never think this progressively?
- 6:22Speaker 1: Right, All right, what's the next topic of the file.
- 6:24Speaker 1: This is exciting.
- 6:25Speaker 3: Wow, I mean files getting smaller.
- 6:27Speaker 4: Yeah, this is a big one here. If Jeff Fisher
- 6:31Speaker 4: coached his whole career during the seventeen game era, will
- 6:35Speaker 4: he finished nine and eight or eight and nine more often?
- 6:39Speaker 6: Wow?
- 6:40Speaker 3: The schedule change.
- 6:41Speaker 1: Eight and eight is always the answer.
- 6:42Speaker 3: But we went to seventeen games, so eight.
- 6:44Speaker 1: And nine or nine and eight. To me, this one's easy.
- 6:47Speaker 1: I think Fishers slides in a tie eight eight and one, eight,
- 6:51Speaker 1: eight and five hundred, because that's what it does. He
- 6:54Speaker 1: goes for the tie. Yeah, yeah, of course, yes, you
- 6:57Speaker 1: go for two or one. There's no time left on
- 6:58Speaker 1: the clock. We're just kicking it.
- 7:00Speaker 4: So my gut tells me that I think Jeff Fisher
- 7:04Speaker 4: would finish nine and eight more. Because when I think
- 7:07Speaker 4: of Jeff Fisher, I don't really think of him as
- 7:10Speaker 4: a mediocre coach. I think of some of those Tennessee
- 7:12Speaker 4: Titan teams as pretty good. So I think push comes
- 7:17Speaker 4: to shove. Jeff Fisher's finding that win more often than not.
- 7:21Speaker 1: Is a shove more intense than a push? Yes, I've
- 7:24Speaker 1: always thought.
- 7:25Speaker 4: They were exactly because the push is coming to a shove.
- 7:26Speaker 1: Yeah, because the words say that, right, well, a shove
- 7:29Speaker 1: comes to a push.
- 7:30Speaker 4: That makes sense.
- 7:30Speaker 2: I think pushes evolve into a shove. Yes, really, not
- 7:33Speaker 2: the other way. You don't start with shoving. I mean
- 7:35Speaker 2: it starts with a little push.
- 7:36Speaker 1: You know. I mean I think a little push is
- 7:38Speaker 1: a little shove. It's the same thing. But okay, yeah,
- 7:40Speaker 1: I'll stick to the language. The rain is working.
- 7:42Speaker 4: I'm falling, man, It's almost like yeah, ASMR.
- 7:46Speaker 1: Right now, what was the question again?
- 7:48Speaker 4: What are we pondering if Jeff Fisher coached his whole
- 7:52Speaker 4: career during the seventeen game era? Yeah, would he finished
- 7:55Speaker 4: nine and eight or eight and nine more often?
- 7:58Speaker 3: Man?
- 7:59Speaker 1: I'm gonna say nine because he was a decent coach.
- 8:01Speaker 1: Right If he was a bad coach who was always
- 8:03Speaker 1: five hundred or you know, lifetime five hundred, I think
- 8:06Speaker 1: we'd say the other way around. But you're right, a
- 8:08Speaker 1: decent coach, I'd probably go nine and eight.
- 8:10Speaker 3: I'll go eight and nine. He was not a decent coach.
- 8:13Speaker 3: His team should have been better.
- 8:14Speaker 1: I mean, he'll probably go to eight and nine one year,
- 8:16Speaker 1: nine and eight the next, and then we'll go to
- 8:17Speaker 1: eighteen games. That's what it all evens out.
- 8:21Speaker 4: What do you say Taylor, I said nine and eight already.
- 8:26Speaker 6: Oh, then I'll go eight and nine just to keep
- 8:27Speaker 6: it at five hundred.
- 8:28Speaker 1: Thank you, excellent, well done man. You set that up well.
- 8:32Speaker 2: So I love what is he's doing here because he
- 8:34Speaker 2: has them at eight and eight and they need a
- 8:35Speaker 2: win to get into the playoffs.
- 8:36Speaker 3: But Jeff Fisher demands, hey, guys.
- 8:39Speaker 1: You know what I need here. I need a tie,
- 8:40Speaker 1: big tag, big tie. You could say what you.
- 8:44Speaker 4: Want about Jeff Fisher, but he just looks like a
- 8:47Speaker 4: football coach. Like if I was making a football coach
- 8:50Speaker 4: in a lab right after I came back with the formula,
- 8:54Speaker 4: I would hope the coach looks something like Jeff Fisher.
- 8:57Speaker 1: Not Bill Cower.
- 8:57Speaker 4: I mean, I think there's some thing about like the
- 9:01Speaker 4: sunglasses and mustache combo from Fisher where it's like, yeah, man,
- 9:05Speaker 4: we're not going to be that good, but I trust
- 9:08Speaker 4: this guy.
- 9:08Speaker 1: On my for some That was the problem though, that
- 9:12Speaker 1: was the problem. The last image I have in my
- 9:14Speaker 1: head of Jeff Fisher is him in a freezing cold
- 9:17Speaker 1: game with frozen snot on his nose, right, And I said,
- 9:20Speaker 1: I don't want to look at that guy anymore because
- 9:21Speaker 1: that's disgusting.
- 9:22Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, Mikey, what do you think does Jeff
- 9:25Speaker 3: Fisher look like the ultimate coach?
- 9:28Speaker 6: It's it's not It's not who I would pick. I'm
- 9:30Speaker 6: more in the Bill Cower.
- 9:31Speaker 3: The chin Yeah, yeah, yeah, John Gruden someone like that.
- 9:36Speaker 1: Right, I have Jeff Fisher owning or at least living
- 9:39Speaker 1: in a lug cabin. Like that's who is the ultimate
- 9:42Speaker 1: person who he looks like.
- 9:43Speaker 4: I feel like what we could at least agree on
- 9:46Speaker 4: in terms of this, if we could find a middle
- 9:48Speaker 4: ground here between Bill Kauer and Jeff Fisher. Our coaches
- 9:51Speaker 4: need the mustache. Like, the mustache a staple for looking like.
- 9:55Speaker 1: Way more important than a beer. Yeah, yes, why do
- 9:59Speaker 1: you have you have? Jeff Fisher does not cabin? Is
- 10:03Speaker 1: he fly fishing? I mean, let me show you this
- 10:06Speaker 1: photo and it's not a real photo, but it looks
- 10:09Speaker 1: like it could be. Let me see, oh yeah, lock cabin. Yeah,
- 10:14Speaker 1: I mean you just let the beard grow. That's a
- 10:16Speaker 1: the chevel Jeff Fisher.
- 10:18Speaker 2: I mean that's Jeff Fisher after he goes you know,
- 10:20Speaker 2: like fourteen and three because he's upset that he didn't.
- 10:22Speaker 1: Go eight eight and one. I mean, this is actually
- 10:24Speaker 1: a hilarious. Uh, I don't know what It is. A
- 10:27Speaker 1: meme on Facebook. It says every August eighth, coach Jeff
- 10:29Speaker 1: Fisher shuffles out of his woodland cabin, squinted a passing
- 10:32Speaker 1: squirrel and asked if the NFL still plays seventeen game
- 10:34Speaker 1: seasons then vanishes back inside to hibernate for another year.
- 10:37Speaker 1: What do you got like?
- 10:39Speaker 5: I'm just thinking Jeff Fisher had the mustache because it's
- 10:42Speaker 5: about five hundred of the facial about half.
- 10:46Speaker 6: You need to keep running with that.
- 10:48Speaker 1: Uh, Jeffer, He does not look like a coach to me,
- 10:53Speaker 1: I would not want my coach. I want my coach
- 10:55Speaker 1: looking like Kurt Signetti. Yeah. No facial hair, yeah whatever, chin.
- 11:01Speaker 4: Hard nosed, yeah.
- 11:04Speaker 6: Yeah. I think do we want our do we want
- 11:07Speaker 6: our football coach to be fat?
- 11:08Speaker 4: Because sometimes I feel like I want a fat coach
- 11:12Speaker 4: because if you're not good, then Andy Reid, Rex Ryan,
- 11:14Speaker 4: if you're not good, it becomes a gimmick almost.
- 11:17Speaker 1: I don't mind in football because if it's a former
- 11:21Speaker 1: offensive or defensive lineman, I'm fine with him keeping the sturdiness.
- 11:24Speaker 1: I like it. I respect it, you know. Uh.
- 11:26Speaker 2: Taylor's right about that, though, your weight. I mean, if
- 11:29Speaker 2: you're winning, it's fine. If not, you're just fat.
- 11:31Speaker 1: You know. Yea, Andy Reid has done a lot for
- 11:33Speaker 1: himself winning. He has saved himself a lot of criticism.
- 11:38Speaker 6: Yes, Rex Ryan got thin and then he started losing, just.
- 11:42Speaker 1: Saying yeah, true, he should have stayed fat.
- 11:45Speaker 3: Is that what you're saying? Something to ponder? Stashed that
- 11:47Speaker 3: away and there's something the Ponder file.
- 11:48Speaker 1: Wow, do you lose your magic when you lost the weight?

- 13:43Speaker 2: This is very exciting, all right, So we got through
- 13:44Speaker 2: two topics here, what's the third?
- 13:46Speaker 1: We have a third here? Yes, we do, we have
- 13:48Speaker 1: five hundred of them.
- 13:50Speaker 4: The next one, what happens if the time runs out
- 13:55Speaker 4: on the mister irrelevant pick in the NFL draft? So
- 13:59Speaker 4: a teams on the clock.
- 14:01Speaker 1: Wow, that's why I stash them away for a rainy dame,
- 14:04Speaker 1: my man. I mean, what happens when a time runs
- 14:06Speaker 1: out for any pick? Do they just lose the pick
- 14:08Speaker 1: and then we just move on?
- 14:09Speaker 4: No?
- 14:10Speaker 5: No, the next team can can just leap you. Okay,
- 14:14Speaker 5: you still get your pick, but other teams can come
- 14:16Speaker 5: up and just make picks in front of you.
- 14:18Speaker 1: So in this scenario, there's nobody to leap in front
- 14:20Speaker 1: of you. So it's either the second to last pick
- 14:23Speaker 1: becomes mister irrelevant or I don't know of a second option,
- 14:27Speaker 1: they lose their pick.
- 14:28Speaker 3: I mean, how can you be torn on the last
- 14:30Speaker 3: pick in the NFL draft? Do you have the team just.
- 14:33Speaker 2: Leaving because there's no one that they deem good enough
- 14:36Speaker 2: to play on their team?
- 14:37Speaker 1: How do they not give them an extra couple of minutes,
- 14:40Speaker 1: but as much time as they what's the end of
- 14:42Speaker 1: time till the beginning of the season.
- 14:46Speaker 4: So this isn't what actually happens. But what I think
- 14:49Speaker 4: should actually happen is if it's like it's like an
- 14:53Speaker 4: auto draft for for like a fantasy football draft, if
- 14:56Speaker 4: you don't make your pick in time, a random player
- 14:59Speaker 4: gets a signed to your team. That's that's that's where
- 15:01Speaker 4: Melker has Mikey, we bring mel Kuiper in. Mel Kuiper
- 15:06Speaker 4: makes the pick.
- 15:07Speaker 1: Wow, I do like that.
- 15:08Speaker 3: Who is the best last pick in the draft of
- 15:10Speaker 3: all time? Is it Colston from the Saints?
- 15:12Speaker 4: It's got to be Brock Purty.
- 15:14Speaker 1: Oh that's right, man, I forgot about that made mister
- 15:18Speaker 1: irrelevant relevant?
- 15:19Speaker 3: Yeah, super Bowl I hate that nickname.
- 15:22Speaker 4: It's so it's so degrading and demeaning. So like, you
- 15:25Speaker 4: work your entire life to make it to the NFL
- 15:28Speaker 4: and you get picked. You're supposed to be the happiest
- 15:30Speaker 4: day of your life, and the second you get picked,
- 15:32Speaker 4: they're talking about you being irrelevant.
- 15:34Speaker 1: Give me a break. There's a solution to work harder,
- 15:38Speaker 1: be better. Well, you could tell the scouts to be better,
- 15:41Speaker 1: because if somebody got picked less and they're end up
- 15:44Speaker 1: being brock Party, somebody wasn't.
- 15:46Speaker 4: Doing their homework properly, and you could make the case
- 15:49Speaker 4: with players like Brock Party. The real mister irrelevant is
- 15:53Speaker 4: whoever gets picked second lass, because I can't name you
- 15:55Speaker 4: one person who's gotten picked second lass.
- 15:57Speaker 2: Right well, that's why it works, though, That's why it's
- 15:59Speaker 2: it's not mean. I mean, you know who some of
- 16:03Speaker 2: them are, right, pretty Colston, we just named a few.
- 16:07Speaker 6: So Taylor, if you were getting drafted and you were
- 16:10Speaker 6: getting down to the last I'd rather be the last
- 16:12Speaker 6: pig you're hoping Are you hoping to be the last picker?
- 16:15Speaker 6: Are you hoping to be number two forty six?
- 16:16Speaker 3: I have a nickname if I'm the last pig, Yeah,
- 16:18Speaker 3: fifty five?
- 16:19Speaker 1: Whatever it is, dude, does anybody else know another mister irrelevant?
- 16:23Speaker 1: Off the top?
- 16:25Speaker 3: I just love well, No, we have Colston, and we
- 16:27Speaker 3: have and we have Brock Purty.
- 16:28Speaker 6: Jets took us safety, I'll tell you so perfectly great.
- 16:34Speaker 2: I love Taylor. Feeling bad for the guy who's two
- 16:36Speaker 2: fifty five. We're just asking him to be too fifty four.
- 16:39Speaker 2: I mean that's it, two fifty three, two one anything,
- 16:43Speaker 2: Just be be in the top two fifty.
- 16:45Speaker 1: How about that? You know who I would always draft
- 16:47Speaker 1: if I was picking last quarterbacks? Kicker. I would take
- 16:50Speaker 1: a fly kicker. No, Ryan suck Up got drafted. He
- 16:53Speaker 1: was mister irrelevant instead of having a great career.
- 16:55Speaker 5: Despite the name you have, you have nflgms acting like
- 16:58Speaker 5: it's a fantasy draft.
- 16:59Speaker 1: Last pig.
- 17:00Speaker 6: Yeah, give you my kicker, who whoever's kicking for this week?
- 17:05Speaker 1: I do that every year.
- 17:06Speaker 4: Athlete athletes who cannote somebody who annoys you, Ryan suck.
- 17:10Speaker 1: Up, work on that. Put that in the file.
- 17:18Speaker 2: It is something the bonder I'm trying to There is
- 17:24Speaker 2: no one. What's the next topic here, ryots suck Up.
- 17:28Speaker 4: Oh, this is a good one, especially for Ezy. Was
- 17:32Speaker 4: the Mavericks letting Jalen Brunson go worse than the Luca trade?
- 17:37Speaker 1: Yes, I mean the short answer is yeah, because they
- 17:41Speaker 1: didn't get anything back right with Luca. Well, they got
- 17:44Speaker 1: Anthony Davis back right, and then the league fixed it
- 17:47Speaker 1: so they can get the number one pick, so they
- 17:50Speaker 1: got a flag. But man, that has to be I mean,
- 17:54Speaker 1: that goes down as one of the worst non signings ever.
- 17:57Speaker 1: Talk about not doing your homework as a scout, Like
- 18:00Speaker 1: I get that. You have Luka Danciz there and he's
- 18:02Speaker 1: gonna dominate the ball and Jalen Brunton is best with
- 18:05Speaker 1: the ball in his hands. But come on, like, I
- 18:07Speaker 1: think we've evolved enough in the NBA where we can
- 18:10Speaker 1: have two ball dominant players. I can't believe it. It's
- 18:14Speaker 1: so crazy to think about the more and more Jalen
- 18:17Speaker 1: Brunton has his success and now he led the Knicks
- 18:19Speaker 1: to a championship. It was just mind boggling.
- 18:22Speaker 2: It's very embarrassing if you're Dallas. I mean, you had
- 18:25Speaker 2: Brunson in your locker room on your practice cord every
- 18:29Speaker 2: single day, and no one said to themselves, Hey, that
- 18:32Speaker 2: guy could be the best player in the NBA and
- 18:35Speaker 2: lead a team to an NBA championship. They let him
- 18:37Speaker 2: go and get nothing in return. That's embarrassing now, way
- 18:40Speaker 2: more embarrassing than Luca.
- 18:41Speaker 3: Yeah, he wasn't white enough.
- 18:42Speaker 1: They love Dirk, they love Luca, at least for a
- 18:44Speaker 1: minute they did.
- 18:45Speaker 4: The craziest part with this with the Mavericks is like
- 18:48Speaker 4: this era of player empowerment in the NBA, you have
- 18:52Speaker 4: players forcing their way off teams left and right. Luca
- 18:56Speaker 4: wanted to stay a Maverick for seemingly the rest of
- 18:58Speaker 4: his life. He would have been content living out the
- 19:00Speaker 4: rest of his days in Dallas with somebody like Jalen Brunson.
- 19:04Speaker 4: When Jalen Brunson initially went to the Mavericks, he approached
- 19:07Speaker 4: them about wanting to put together a deal, a very
- 19:10Speaker 4: team friendly deal for Dallas. Dallas was like, we'll take
- 19:13Speaker 4: our chances for once we get to the offseason, Kyrie
- 19:18Speaker 4: gets hurt or no, Luca gets hurt. Sorry, yeah, Luca
- 19:21Speaker 4: gets hurt. Jalen Brunson gets forced into this bigger role.
- 19:24Speaker 4: And then once Jalen Brunson fit fills in this bigger role,
- 19:28Speaker 4: the Mavericks are like, hey, remember that deal you pitched
- 19:30Speaker 4: to us at the beginning of the season. You want
- 19:32Speaker 4: to sign that now. And Jalen bruns is like, hey,
- 19:34Speaker 4: today's price is not yesterday's price.
- 19:37Speaker 1: Yeah, man, Because if you just look at the stats,
- 19:40Speaker 1: I mean, he was a single figure scorer in his
- 19:43Speaker 1: first two years, twelve point six in his third, and
- 19:46Speaker 1: then sixteen point three in his fourth season there, and
- 19:49Speaker 1: that was the only year he was a true starter.
- 19:50Speaker 1: I mean, he started about half the season his rookie year.
- 19:53Speaker 1: But I mean you've got to be able to see
- 19:56Speaker 1: that sort of progression and recognize that it guarded his size,
- 19:59Speaker 1: went two straight years with the MAVs shooting better than
- 20:02Speaker 1: fifty percent as what a six foot two guy with
- 20:05Speaker 1: shoes on probably like you gotta be able to see
- 20:08Speaker 1: some of these things.
- 20:09Speaker 3: Here's something to ponder, Taylor.
- 20:11Speaker 2: If the Lakers called the Knicks today and said, hey,
- 20:14Speaker 2: we'll give you Lucas straight up for Jalen Bruntsett, would
- 20:17Speaker 2: the Knicks do it.
- 20:22Speaker 1: Perfectly?
- 20:23Speaker 4: Time's under run that trade back.
- 20:26Speaker 2: The Lakers call the Knicks today, okay, okay? And I
- 20:29Speaker 2: thought you said, yeah, Lucas straight up for Jalen Brunson.
- 20:33Speaker 4: I thought I was missing something else and we could
- 20:35Speaker 4: stash it away.
- 20:35Speaker 1: For a rainy day and discuss it. We don't have
- 20:37Speaker 1: to do that, Okay, I'm sorry.
- 20:40Speaker 4: I'll get more rainy days than I'm not.
- 20:42Speaker 1: I apologize.
- 20:43Speaker 4: There there's no package you could throw at me right
- 20:46Speaker 4: now in the NBA where I'm trading Jalen Brunson. Jalen
- 20:49Speaker 4: Brunson's my guy. I'm gonna go down with Jalen Brunson.
- 20:51Speaker 4: At this point, the Spurs could come to me and
- 20:54Speaker 4: be like, hey, Castle, when Bin Yama somebody else from
- 21:00Speaker 4: the from the Spurs. Yes, and I'm saying, you know what,
- 21:05Speaker 4: I'm content running it back with Jalen Brunson.
- 21:06Speaker 1: Yeah, don't get mad at me. I'd say yes to that.
- 21:10Speaker 1: I think all of New York would keep Jalen. All
- 21:13Speaker 1: of New York would kee Jalen bruns He's only two
- 21:14Speaker 1: years older than Luca. He's already more accomplished. Did you
- 21:17Speaker 1: hear what he just said? Though? Yeah, I mean that's ridiculous.
- 21:21Speaker 4: I would not trade the Spurs Big Three for Jalen Brunson. Sorry, sorry,
- 21:24Speaker 4: I have loyalty.
- 21:25Speaker 1: What if you throw into Aaron Foxy fox already plays
- 21:29Speaker 1: for the Knicks, right, Well, that's an MVP.
- 21:31Speaker 2: By the way, he didn't play well for his team.
- 21:34Speaker 2: He played well, he played so poorly and helped the
- 21:36Speaker 2: next win. I mean, not exactly Joe Burrow, but in
- 21:39Speaker 2: the same kind of conversation.
- 21:41Speaker 1: Anyway, what's the next uh? What's the next thing to ponder? Here?
- 21:45Speaker 1: We have wired?
- 21:46Speaker 4: We have one more topic to ponder today.
- 21:48Speaker 3: The rain is making me sleepy. I'm sorry, go ahead.
- 21:52Speaker 4: Does Marcus Freeman wear those shirts to show off his body?
- 21:56Speaker 4: Or would any shirt show off his body?
- 21:58Speaker 1: Wow? Yeah, No, he wears tho shirts to show off
- 22:02Speaker 1: his body. I don't need to ponder that. Yeah, there's
- 22:05Speaker 1: a few, there's a few largess and extra largest out there.
- 22:07Speaker 1: It'll make him look like a regular dude.
- 22:09Speaker 3: I regret putting that in the file.
- 22:10Speaker 1: I do go to sleep now.
- 22:13Speaker 4: It was just you at Marcus Freeman.
- 22:16Speaker 1: I mean, what else do you do when you look
- 22:17Speaker 1: at him? You look at his hairline and say that's suspicious.
- 22:21Speaker 4: He has omitted that though recently where he said I
- 22:25Speaker 4: if it rains, I forget what podcast he was on. No,
- 22:29Speaker 4: that is, yes, when it when it does rain, it pours.
- 22:32Speaker 4: But he said, when it rains, you will see me
- 22:35Speaker 4: with a hat because I cannot run into one of
- 22:38Speaker 4: these situations where I am dripping on the side where
- 22:40Speaker 4: my hairline is running off my head.
- 22:42Speaker 1: But here's where I don't respect that anyway. It doesn't
- 22:45Speaker 1: look good if it's obviously fake, it doesn't look good.
- 22:49Speaker 1: You look almost like a clown because you just have
- 22:51Speaker 1: paint on your face. There's no way his hairline could
- 22:54Speaker 1: be that bad. Look at him.
- 22:56Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 22:57Speaker 4: So my my thing is, if you're in a position
- 22:59Speaker 4: of status and a position of wealth, like like Marcus Freeman,
- 23:04Speaker 4: just get just go to Turkey, Like what Are you
- 23:06Speaker 4: worried about the transplant not taking like Landon Donovan.
- 23:10Speaker 1: Look at Primer Lecord.
- 23:11Speaker 3: What do you mean, Turkey, that's where you go.
- 23:13Speaker 4: That's a transplant.
- 23:15Speaker 1: You meant turkey? A mister professional over here
