  Speaker 3: tell you right now. I watched all of it, the
• 0:25
  Speaker 3: Suns and Denver. I'm gonna tell you it is one
• 0:29
  Speaker 3: of the best offensive games I ever seen him a
• 0:30
  Speaker 3: whole life. Do you watch it?
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: Oh?
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: It was beautiful.
• 0:32
  Speaker 3: It's crazy. I mean, Yokic, he should have won the
• 0:36
  Speaker 3: MVP just from that game last night. They should retroactively
• 0:39
  Speaker 3: take it away from Embead and they lost. But he
• 0:42
  Speaker 3: could not be stopped. I'm talking about little flicks. I'm
• 0:45
  Speaker 3: talking about post moves. He was so good and him
• 0:49
  Speaker 3: and Mary were doing too man ball that they couldn't stop.
• 0:52
  Speaker 3: It wasn't even straight picking rolls. They were just running
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: two man and he hit. And we will talk about
• 0:57
  Speaker 3: that in a second. But I was just so inspired
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: to start training for the league again.
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: I thought, you're gonna start with the Celtics, So I'm
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: glad you started there instead.
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I started there, not because I don't want you
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: to have to suffer through this Celtics part of it,
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: but I just had watched that game and was like,
• 1:16
  Speaker 3: got it between Booker shooting the eyeballs out Durant just playing.
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: I mean he was extra passing it to Booker whenever
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: he had an open shot. It was so freaking cool
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: to see. Yeah, that game was so it was just
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: a really great game. We'll talk about it a little bit,
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: think of very much. There was a parent in Florida.
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: They had to arrest a parent because he punched a
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: voluntary mPire on the back of the head. What what
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: parents do with umpires? How they treat him, how they
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: yell at them? Wild the umpire's doing Okay, the attacker said,
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: he was just defending his kid. By the way, how
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: about not a pet punching him in the back of
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: the head. You want to punch somebody, big shot, punch
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: him in the face. At least give him a shot
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: a duck. Don't punch them. But if you do, and
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: you got to punch somebody, don't punch them in the
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: back of the head, you big woos. Investigators determined that
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: an upset parent punch a sixty three year old umpire
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: in the back of the head. It happened as the
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: Empire exited the field gates between innings. There's a video
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: shows him walking up boom knocking them out. The sheriff's
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: is the umpire is a disabled veteran and officiates baseball
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: because he loves it. He loves the kids in the community.
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: Players and parents can be seen rushing to the Empire's aid.
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: The Empire had addressed the kid for disruptive behavior. Oh,
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: I can't believe a kid would be have disrupt behavior
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: when his dad acts like that.
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: Put far from the trill.
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: Wow, w e s eight terrible parent. No more games
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: to the parent. He can't go to any games, even
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: high school games, college the kids in the NFL don't. Nope,
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: you get to go into nowhere where your kid's playing.
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: Ever again, that's like a piece of crap. That is
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: a piece of crap, dude, right there. Let's say you
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: do want to fight an umpire, which you shouldn't because
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: he's volunteering at least be like yo, ump let's square
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: up in chunk yep. But also he's sixty six. He
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: probably shouldn't even do that. But to punch him in
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: the back of the head. What a freaking loser. Speaking
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: of losers, Celtics. Now, well, let's go over to the
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: Tittle Tattle.
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: Go ahead to name.
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: The tittle Tattle.
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: Let's get up.
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: With these late night games for the Western Conference finals
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: making it tough to stay up, and I was wondering,
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: what time zone do you think has it best for
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: sports fans?
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: Once I went to Hawaii and the games are like
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: noon because they're way back. Yeah you think LA's back.
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: I think it's another two or three hours or something.
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: And Hawaii was that was crazy because you're watching games.
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: It just felt odd. It was like, have some breakfast
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: and watch the primetime game on the NFL, probably West
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: Coast because they get to watch them all and they
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: get to finish, even the late games and not have
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: to be exhausted at work the next day. Imagine your
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: East Coast and you do get a game starts on
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: nine o'clock, so that means midnight. If you're lucky, then
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: you got to get up at six or seven and
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: go to work the next day. Terrible West Coast. I
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: would want to live West Coast times. Izon't know if
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: I got to choose, because it's just too far back.
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: I don't like it. Too many things have happened, you know.
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: Lucky for me, I have a bunch of people that
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: I work with that live West Coast, and I can
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: call them even when it works over for all of us.
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: My wife's like, you don't need to bother people after five.
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: It's only three there. So that's But probably the Western
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: Pacific PST whatever, all that crap is.
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: Mountaintome is pretty good. Yeah, right in between better than Central. Yes,
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: East is the worst. Just go right and work back
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: and it gets less sucky as you go. Yes, because
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: I remember being out there during.
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: The NFL season. I would wake up and there will
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: be games on at ten o'clock. NFL games at ten
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: in the morning. So it's like you because what happens
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: on Fantasy football days or any NFL week You wake up,
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: you can't wait, you can't wait. It is forever noon.
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: You wake up at nine to fifteen. You've watched the
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: clock until noon. Yeah, probably the old PST number one.
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: All right.
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: Next, the players for this year is the Match Golf
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: charity game were announced last week. If you got to
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: choose with any three athletes, former or current, who would.
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: They be Who's playing the match?
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: It's gonna be Klay Thompson and Steph Curry versus Patrick
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: Mahomes and Travis Kelsey, Chiefs and Warriors.
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: Curry is a really good golfer. Is Mahomes or Kelsey?
• 5:39
  Speaker 3: And are they playing with handicaps? Probably not handicaps.
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: Mahomes is pretty good because he's played in it before.
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: I don't know about Kelsey, but he goes a lot.
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: I see him on Twitter and when not playing charities
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: all the time.
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: Curry is really good. Yeah, Curry had a really bad
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: game in the playoffs and he's just wanted to play
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: golf next day, and Carr was like, cool, just go
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: play golf. He played golf and then came to the
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: Ring and they won the next game.
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: That's that's a trick.
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm gonna go. I go Mark Grace first, Qastion
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: for the Cobs back in the day, still there, I
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: mean still live, not there as an earth. He's still alive. Okay,
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: So I go Mark Grace. Two more athletes that I
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: get to choose to play golf with. I don't really
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: have like a love for any specific athlete except from
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: when I was with was a kid, So I think
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: it would be cool to play golf with. Can I
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: pick like an old coach like Barry Switzer.
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah, why not?
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: Because he played at Arkansas and then went to coach
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: obviously Oklahoma and the Cowboys. So I think that would
• 6:37
  Speaker 3: be fun because you get to hear like all the
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: old stories. And I sat beside I'm on a Southwest
• 6:40
  Speaker 3: flight once. I was awesome for like the fifty minutes
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: I sat with them.
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: You talked to them.
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: Oh, yeah, awesome, it was amazing. Have you ever told
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: that story?
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: No.
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: I got on a flight on the last one there
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: I was. My connection was slow. I run over jump
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: on the flight from Dallas to Little Rock and there's
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: only one seat in the back and it's between these
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: two old men, and I'm like, oh, they're gonna hate me.
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: Middle seat set in boom, Barry Switzer talk to me
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: the whole time.
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: Wow, it's really cool. That's really cool.
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: So I'm gonna go Mark Grace Barry Switzer. Tom Brady
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: would be cool.
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: There you go.
• 7:18
  Speaker 3: He's just a living legend. Especially have to like talk
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: to me about stuff. Is the role they have to
• 7:22
  Speaker 3: answer any question? I ask?
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: Of course? Yeah, yeah. Number one rule, who would you
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: put in yours? I would go Tom Brady for sure,
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: and then probably.
• 7:31
  Speaker 3: Manning over tom Brady I'm palling Brady out, putting Manning in.
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: Ok yeah, Okay, well our team is gonna beat your
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: team in Yeah, so I'll go Tom Brady. And I
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: don't even think he plays golf with David Ortiz. If
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: he does play golfing, I don't know if my guys
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: like golf.
• 7:42
  Speaker 3: I just picked him.
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, and then I'm gonna throw a gronk in
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: there just because it'd be fun.
• 7:45
  Speaker 3: Okay, you're full Boston dude. Well yeah, hey, get some
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: new hobbies, all right? Next time.
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: With the NFL schedule set to be announced this week,
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: which matchup do you want to see the most against
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: the tees on opening night?
• 7:55
  Speaker 3: I mean, always a Super Bowl? Right, isn't it mostly
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: Super Bowl? Don't they do that most times? Do they
• 8:00
  Speaker 3: played the Super Bowl again?
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: Matchup? Well, they don't always play each other that following year,
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: but this year they do play the Eagles at home.
• 8:06
  Speaker 3: But I thought they always came back that one of
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: the beginning games with the Super Bowl from last year.
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: No, it just depends if they're on their schedule or not.
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: The bull crap. Probably, I would like see the Bills
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: again because I like the Chief Bills rivalry just straight up.
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: I think that's always gonna be fun. Josh Allen, Patrick Mahomes,
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: I think that's super cool. I'm nervous watching Dolphins games. Yeah,
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: Tu said he wanted to retire. Thought about it for
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: a while. I don't know if I'm even a defensive
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: player and I'm gonna run up. I think too, I
• 8:31
  Speaker 3: should just get flags and they pull the flags and
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: he's down. I think everybody would agree that's okay. Yes,
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: Tua gets to play flag and everybody else gets to
• 8:40
  Speaker 3: hit hard. But again, the Eagles will be awesome because
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: that's that's super Bowl, right m hm, yeah, yeah, so
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: I would go I would love for it to be Eagles,
• 8:52
  Speaker 3: but I thought it was always super Bowl. So okay,
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna go Bills. If it's not the super Bowl,
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: it's on with the Bills, Okay, just because I like
• 8:59
  Speaker 3: that rivalry, all right? What else?
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: Nick Foles? Remember Nick Foles? He was released by the
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: Colts over the weekend, and I was wondering, which quarterback
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: do you forget about the most that won a Super
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: Bowl in the past.
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: Well, it's not Trent Delfer, because everybody always talks about
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: Trent Delpher and that can you believe you won a
• 9:13
  Speaker 3: super Bowl like that is so much and that's so said,
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: and the fact that he's an analyst and it's said
• 9:18
  Speaker 3: a lot. Now he's a coach down at you ab
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: probably Brad Johnson for the Bucks because when the Bucks
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: won that Super Bowl, was grood In the coach of
• 9:32
  Speaker 3: the Bucks?
• 9:33
  Speaker 4: Then?
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that defense those nasty yeah killed the Raiders.
• 9:36
  Speaker 3: But that's why, and that's what comes to mind. You
• 9:38
  Speaker 3: don't think about Mark Rippin our excuse? Yeah, Mark Repints
• 9:42
  Speaker 3: want two for the Redskins. Back in the day. My
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: buddy had a pullover, a starter pullover. You know anything
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: about that, Kevin, the full starter pullover that goes all
• 9:51
  Speaker 3: the way down pull over, not like a jacket and
• 9:53
  Speaker 3: Bert pollover. K cackling't a Ford one, but he had one.
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: To remember Mark Reppen winning that Super Bowl. Joe Gibbs
• 9:58
  Speaker 3: was the head coach then. Okay, so that's all I
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: have to remember the players and when they played, because
• 10:03
  Speaker 3: I don't do well with the years. Brad Johnson didn't
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: Mark Rippin, That's what I hated when the Redskins were good.
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: There's just no need I hated the Redskins. I didn't
• 10:10
  Speaker 3: even love the Cowboys. That's not The Redskins was such
• 10:11
  Speaker 3: a losers because I didn't like their colors, even though
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: they were dark red, red and yellow. It's not a
• 10:16
  Speaker 3: mix of colors the anger in your face, but their
• 10:19
  Speaker 3: helmets were gross. I just hated the Redskins for some reason.
• 10:22
  Speaker 3: Did you like the running back what was his name,
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: big white guy Hortous? Oh no, what are you talking about?
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: John? Something that they had when they won the Super Bowl?
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: Number forty four.
• 10:33
  Speaker 3: You can have to remind me about who that is
• 10:34
  Speaker 3: because I don't remember a white running but I remember
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: Mike all saw it is awesome down with Bucks Riggins.
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: Yeahs No, I hated it.
• 10:43
  Speaker 3: I hated it all right? What else?
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: Last one with Bronnie James committing to USC over the weekend?
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: Which star are you most excited to watch next year
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: at USC? Bronni or Caleb Williams. It's easily Caleb Williams.
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: Like that's it. I don't even care about watching Bronnie
• 10:59
  Speaker 3: except see, well, how many minutes is he getting? Because
• 11:05
  Speaker 3: I think his last name wasn't James one. They tried
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: to make him a five star and I think one
• 11:10
  Speaker 3: of the services has listened as a five years a
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: five star, he's a consensus four star. I watch him
• 11:16
  Speaker 3: play Sierra Canyon, right, I watch him play as in
• 11:19
  Speaker 3: like I watch clips or extended clips, which sometimes they'll
• 11:23
  Speaker 3: show two or three minutes at a time, and not
• 11:24
  Speaker 3: just him dunking it. He's just a guy on that team.
• 11:29
  Speaker 3: But to get on that team, you got to be
• 11:30
  Speaker 3: really good. Don't get me wrong. It's like you're just
• 11:33
  Speaker 3: a guy on the Dream Team. Well, those guys are
• 11:36
  Speaker 3: Larry Bird and so he has to be really great.
• 11:39
  Speaker 3: But they want to get drafted after one year. And
• 11:44
  Speaker 3: the thing is somebody's gonna draft him because lebron said
• 11:46
  Speaker 3: wherever he goes, he's gonna go. Is this the easiest
• 11:50
  Speaker 3: passing pass into the NBA ever? Yeah, because I haven't
• 11:54
  Speaker 3: seen anything with Bronnie where I go. That is an
• 11:57
  Speaker 3: NBA guy right there, Like he would go to the
• 12:01
  Speaker 3: NBA this year because most of those kids that go
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: first round in the draft after one year in college
• 12:06
  Speaker 3: would have also gone and been drafted their final year
• 12:10
  Speaker 3: in high school. Because going into the year, they're like,
• 12:13
  Speaker 3: this is our draft projection, and mostly all those kids
• 12:15
  Speaker 3: are already listed somewhere. I just don't think Bronne would
• 12:17
  Speaker 3: get drafted this year.
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: Nope, not at all. I've heard that a lot of
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: people saying he's not even I mean, he's good, obviously
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: you going to USC.
• 12:24
  Speaker 3: But when you're compared to lebron and some say you're
• 12:27
  Speaker 3: a five star. When they say he's not that good,
• 12:28
  Speaker 3: they mean he's not as good as other people who
• 12:30
  Speaker 3: are given the same type of credit. Yes, so, kayleb
• 12:35
  Speaker 3: Williams should be awesome, should be the first overall pick
• 12:37
  Speaker 3: in the NFL draft. What I will be anxious to
• 12:40
  Speaker 3: see with Brownie is how many minutes he gets and
• 12:44
  Speaker 3: how much of a contributor he is more than I
• 12:46
  Speaker 3: just can't wait to watch him because he's so dynamic
• 12:48
  Speaker 3: and amazing.
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: I guess defense is a strong point.
• 12:50
  Speaker 3: Yeah, me too when I play ball. Yeah, yeah, you
• 12:53
  Speaker 3: know what, because he's very good offensively exactly. All right,
• 12:56
  Speaker 3: that's it his name, the Tannel townel all Right's floors yours?
• 13:05
  Speaker 3: What do you want to say about the Celtics and Sixers?
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: It was I had a feeling going in that game.
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: I didn't really expect that they were gonna win. I
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: kind of knew the Sixers would show up a lot
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: more than they did in game two. In Game three,
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: and that comeback was awesome. For a long time, I
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: was like, Okay, it's not gonna happen. We're down by
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: a double digits. Most of the game. Comeback was great.
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: It was their defense and their energy more than anything.
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: But once again, it's late in games not calling timeouts,
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: and I'm still up in the air about that. Not
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: being able to execute when they have a shot to
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: win the game on both overtime and regulation.
• 13:36
  Speaker 3: They're not calling a timeout. It's a good discussion point
• 13:39
  Speaker 3: because if you do call a timeout, you go back up.
• 13:42
  Speaker 3: You got a shorter distance to go because you're going
• 13:44
  Speaker 3: to reset half court, right, But also the defense has
• 13:48
  Speaker 3: a chance to get set. So it's hard for me
• 13:51
  Speaker 3: to argue that because if it would have worked, and
• 13:53
  Speaker 3: that's the case always, but I definitely understood the strategy
• 13:58
  Speaker 3: in it. It just didn't work out this time, right,
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: But yeah, since it didn't work out, I'll be upset
• 14:03
  Speaker 3: to Ah I call time out.
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: And the last time he did call time out when
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: they ran a set play, it was to Marcus Smart
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: and drive down the lane. I don't want market, I
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: love Smart, but to have him handle the ball last
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: It's like, come on, we got Tatum and Jaen and
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: Jaylen Brown didn't do much and not his fault, but
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: the last few minutes and he is he's been their
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: best player all postseason. He needs that ball.
• 14:21
  Speaker 3: There's like forty seconds in the seconds left on the
• 14:24
  Speaker 3: clock in overtime and Tatum hit that three. Did you
• 14:26
  Speaker 3: feel like it was over?
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: Yes? I yeah, deep down, I was like, Okay, we
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: got this, but credit the Harden man. I can't stand
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: watching the guy play. But credit though in the game,
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: like he made any shot that needed to be made
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: he made. He hit the floater less than twenty seconds left.
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: Knowsn't overtime the three hit Yeah, And when Jalen came
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: over and helped on MB down low before he kicked
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: it out the hard and I was like, oh no, no, no,
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: I could give him two. We're only up by two.
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: But to leave Harden, who already had forty or thirty
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: nine points, I think of the time wide open like that.
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: That's tough.
• 15:00
  Speaker 3: That line Harden forty seven minutes, forty two points, eight rebounds,
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: nine assists. The nine assists, that's a heavy nine assist
• 15:07
  Speaker 3: from Marden. That's really Harden's playing really well.
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it's like it's one extreme or the other.
• 15:15
  Speaker 3: Though. He went six of nine from three, especially the
• 15:20
  Speaker 3: dagger there at the end. Inbeid thirty four points, thirteen rebounds,
• 15:24
  Speaker 3: four assists, Tatum twenty four points, eighteen rebounds. The eighteen
• 15:28
  Speaker 3: rebounds from Tatum insane.
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah, because they were talking about he didn't think he
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: had two points in the first half, but he was
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: grabbing boards all over. He was doing different things, and yeah, man,
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: that's tough.
• 15:38
  Speaker 3: The Heat and the Knicks. I almost just want to
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: know who wins. I don't care that much about it anymore.
• 15:42
  Speaker 3: I don't The games aren't fun to watch.
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: Right, especially when we watch the other games. You're like, oh, yeah,
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: so just tell me who wins.
• 15:48
  Speaker 3: It's like I want to hit sim Yeah, like an
• 15:51
  Speaker 3: NBA two K you can just simulate the game. Just
• 15:53
  Speaker 3: sim the game and then let us know who wins.
• 15:56
  Speaker 3: But the Heat beat the Knicks one O five eighty
• 15:58
  Speaker 3: six or up two to one. And I don't think
• 16:00
  Speaker 3: Butler was fully healthy. He hasn't got the ankle injury,
• 16:04
  Speaker 3: but I guess didn't really have to be. However, he
• 16:07
  Speaker 3: scored twenty eight points played thirty six minutes. I don't care.
• 16:13
  Speaker 3: I don't care. I do think that if Boston wins,
• 16:17
  Speaker 3: they easily win the next series. I do think if
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: Philadelphia wins, they could have some trouble with the heat. Yeah,
• 16:24
  Speaker 3: but the Boston Miami rematch is a bit intriguing to
• 16:27
  Speaker 3: me because Jimmy Butler that last second shot end of
• 16:31
  Speaker 3: the game last year almost went in from in front
• 16:34
  Speaker 3: of the rim like that. That's fun.
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: They scare me. The Knicks don't scare me.
• 16:38
  Speaker 3: Yeah, me either.
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: The heat, just because you just don't know what you're
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: getting nine in a night out and they'll always play
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: you hard. They scare me.
• 16:44
  Speaker 3: Lakers whooped up on the Warriors. But it's gone one Lakers,
• 16:48
  Speaker 3: boom punching the gut the Warriors. Okay, we're gonna play
• 16:51
  Speaker 3: a little different here. No three Lakers, so two to one.
• 16:56
  Speaker 3: Dangel Russell had a bunch threes. Yeah, I'll look, I
• 16:59
  Speaker 3: didn't watch I watch a little bit of the game,
• 17:01
  Speaker 3: probably third quarter, but I'll just look at the stat
• 17:04
  Speaker 3: line and see what's up. And I saw Dangel Russell.
• 17:06
  Speaker 3: Really he already hit a bunch of threes. Man, if
• 17:09
  Speaker 3: he's putting in points and Anthony Davis's playing. No, no,
• 17:13
  Speaker 3: let me say it's different. If Anthony Davis is healthy,
• 17:17
  Speaker 3: the Lakers are my favorite. I said it before. Every
• 17:21
  Speaker 3: time he falls down, I'm like, well, that's it, because
• 17:23
  Speaker 3: he falls down a decent amount for a big do too.
• 17:25
  Speaker 3: He doesn't fall down like MB does. MB goes down
• 17:27
  Speaker 3: every play.
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: Everybody.
• 17:28
  Speaker 3: Yeah, MB's standing clapping for a shot from the bench
• 17:31
  Speaker 3: and it goes in and he falls down. He's not
• 17:33
  Speaker 3: part of the play falls down. So yeah, as long
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: as Anthony Davis stays healthy. Man, I just feel like
• 17:39
  Speaker 3: the Laker Lebron didn't shoot in the first quarter. I
• 17:43
  Speaker 3: don't think yeah, so he didn't have to. And I
• 17:46
  Speaker 3: think Lebron is very much okay with his role as
• 17:51
  Speaker 3: being number one and a half instead of one. I'm
• 17:54
  Speaker 3: not gonna say he's a number two because sometimes I
• 17:56
  Speaker 3: needed to be that number one guy still, but I
• 17:58
  Speaker 3: think he's okay being the one and a half because
• 18:00
  Speaker 3: he does just go all right, ady, you go, Anthon
• 18:04
  Speaker 3: Davis'll rebound it, take it all the way down court himself,
• 18:07
  Speaker 3: then post up, then go up. Yeah. I mean he's
• 18:10
  Speaker 3: so versatile, he just gets hurt. I just keep waiting
• 18:12
  Speaker 3: for that injury.
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: Anything you want to say about that game, No, I'm
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: like you, I didn't watch too much of it, especially
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: when I saw the blout. I think they went on
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: a big run in the third quarter. But if the
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: Anthony Davis's defense too. You could tell every time the
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: Warriors try to go in the paint or something, it's
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: kind of like embiid where he's blocking shots or he's
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: altering shots.
• 18:27
  Speaker 3: And lots of tip shots, lots of tip balls. Let's
• 18:30
  Speaker 3: get over the game that I just I could not
• 18:32
  Speaker 3: get enough of. I mean, Yokic is so good. They
• 18:37
  Speaker 3: didn't win, but he does it all. He had fifty
• 18:41
  Speaker 3: three points, eleven assists. He was twenty for thirty from
• 18:46
  Speaker 3: the field. Murray had twenty eight point seven assists, and
• 18:50
  Speaker 3: that again, their two man game is so good. You
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: can tell they played together so much. You'll be like,
• 18:54
  Speaker 3: Murray goes around, Yokis, shows where he's going, leads him.
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: Into the lane.
• 18:57
  Speaker 3: He's leading them in between two of them defenders right
• 19:01
  Speaker 3: toward Its gotta be layup, layup, man, freaking booker. He
• 19:08
  Speaker 3: shot that three pointer in the fourth quarter over those
• 19:10
  Speaker 3: two dudes at once. Is a heat check. But he
• 19:13
  Speaker 3: was still hot. I mean both the guys were up
• 19:16
  Speaker 3: Booker at thirty six and twelve and Durant had thirty six,
• 19:19
  Speaker 3: eleven rebounds, six assists. I feel like when I watch,
• 19:23
  Speaker 3: Durant can take over the game himself at any time.
• 19:26
  Speaker 3: But I feel like, again, he's letting everybody know Booker's
• 19:30
  Speaker 3: the guy. He is the new He's a new Booker's team. Like,
• 19:34
  Speaker 3: I feel like I see that with Katie, even the
• 19:36
  Speaker 3: extra passes, he could easily taken some of those threes. Yeah,
• 19:41
  Speaker 3: but man, Booker just drilling them last night.
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: God dang, it was a fun one.
• 19:46
  Speaker 3: What a series two two. Durant played forty four minutes.
• 19:51
  Speaker 3: I mean, that's where it just gets tough. Booker played
• 19:54
  Speaker 3: forty minutes. They don't really have that. They don't have
• 19:56
  Speaker 3: much of a bench. No, So that's basketball. That was good.
• 20:00
  Speaker 3: A couple of things I wanted to mention real quick.
• 20:02
  Speaker 3: We do have more about the Alabama betting scandal. Holy moly,
• 20:08
  Speaker 3: it's worse than I thought because of who was involved
• 20:12
  Speaker 3: in it. According to the story, Alabama has fired head
• 20:18
  Speaker 3: baseball coach Brad Bohannan following an ESPN report regarding suspicious
• 20:23
  Speaker 3: wagering activity. We talked about this last week. We're like, well,
• 20:25
  Speaker 3: I just want to know what happened. I would still
• 20:27
  Speaker 3: like to know the money. They don't tell us how
• 20:29
  Speaker 3: much money it was. But according to nola dot Com,
• 20:32
  Speaker 3: there was a parlay involving Alabama and LSU, as well
• 20:34
  Speaker 3: as a large straight bet on LSU. Surveillance video from
• 20:37
  Speaker 3: a sports book at Great American Ballpark in Cincinnati where
• 20:39
  Speaker 3: bets were placed indicated that the better was communicating with
• 20:43
  Speaker 3: Bohannan at the time the wagers were placed. Alabama pitcher
• 20:47
  Speaker 3: of Luke Holeman was slated to start, but the reliever
• 20:50
  Speaker 3: was told an hour so before the game that he
• 20:52
  Speaker 3: would be starting instead. So that information he was told,
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: he was told, he went and betted. How did they
• 20:56
  Speaker 3: know by a phone?
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: Can they zoom it on your phone?
• 20:59
  Speaker 3: Watch you on talking to any label? My people different
• 21:02
  Speaker 3: in my phone. That's crazy. The head coach was involved. Bro,
• 21:07
  Speaker 3: what you do is you tell somebody, then that somebody
• 21:09
  Speaker 3: tells somebody You don't You're not the direct connection. First
• 21:13
  Speaker 3: of all, don't do it. Second of all, don't be
• 21:14
  Speaker 3: an idiot do it like that. There's another one where,
• 21:19
  Speaker 3: speaking of baseball, there was a Tennessee High school playoff
• 21:21
  Speaker 3: series and this normally wouldn't come to any of our
• 21:26
  Speaker 3: you know feeds, except for what happened. And Father Ryan
• 21:30
  Speaker 3: is here, isn't it? Is it? Father Ryan Nashville? Yeah,
• 21:34
  Speaker 3: so a Tennessee high school playoff series has been cast
• 21:37
  Speaker 3: into the national spotlight. But Endsworth is here too. I
• 21:40
  Speaker 3: used to go over and like put in the Endsworth
• 21:42
  Speaker 3: little putting area over there. Okay, I don't I don't
• 21:45
  Speaker 3: know where Endsworth is. Yeah, ends I don't even care
• 21:48
  Speaker 3: if I'm right, it doesn't matter. Connor Cobb from Ensworth
• 21:52
  Speaker 3: through a no hitter. Well, but he threw one pitch
• 21:56
  Speaker 3: too many, pitch one twenty one. They have a pitch
• 21:58
  Speaker 3: limit for fit the game.
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: Crazy, Yeah, that sucks.
• 22:04
  Speaker 3: Pitch one twenty one was one pitch too many under
• 22:07
  Speaker 3: the TSAAAA I don't know Tennessee Secondary School Athletic Association rules.
• 22:14
  Speaker 3: The pitch count rule allows for an athlete to throw
• 22:15
  Speaker 3: more than no more than one hundred and twenty pitches.
• 22:18
  Speaker 3: You know, somebody's watching that from the other team and they're.
• 22:20
  Speaker 4: Like, Okay, they haven't taken him out yet. If he
• 22:23
  Speaker 4: throws one more pitch, one more pitch, we start yelling,
• 22:27
  Speaker 4: come on, come on, okay, okay, he's going back to
• 22:29
  Speaker 4: the mountain. Oh my god, is this gonna happen? Oh
• 22:31
  Speaker 4: my god, he did it? Oh yeah, you know some blueser.
• 22:35
  Speaker 3: Was doing that. Now, that is against the rules. And
• 22:37
  Speaker 3: I'm not saying that they didn't follow the rules. They
• 22:40
  Speaker 3: should be punished accordingly, but you know, some loser was
• 22:42
  Speaker 3: doing that.
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: I you say, Kevin Nows, it's like eating the other
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: team's rooting for me. It's like, why is the other
• 22:46
  Speaker 2: team rooting for me to throw no hitter? How that
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: makes sense?
• 22:49
  Speaker 3: Oh? Crazy? Huh. Kevin Duran comes to number ten highest
• 22:52
  Speaker 3: paid athletes eighty nine million bucks, Federer at nine ninety
• 22:55
  Speaker 3: five million, steph at eight hundred million, Phil Mickelson one
• 22:59
  Speaker 3: oh six, Dustin Onnson one oh seven, Canelo won ten,
• 23:02
  Speaker 3: Lebron one nineteen, Bape soccer one twenty, Messi soccer one thirty,
• 23:08
  Speaker 3: Rinaldo soccer one thirty six. I think there's something to
• 23:11
  Speaker 3: that soccer game, boys. Yeah, maybe I should start training
• 23:14
  Speaker 3: for that instead. Never too late, Tiger Woods maybe over
• 23:19
  Speaker 3: as a regular player because his main like his normal
• 23:23
  Speaker 3: caddy just moved over. So that's kind of the sign
• 23:28
  Speaker 3: that they're looking at, right, Yeah, I mean, but also
• 23:30
  Speaker 3: he just went under under the Knight for another surgery,
• 23:33
  Speaker 3: so probably right.
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: But even if you're that caddy, right, you're kind of
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: probably saying, hey, I just need consistent work over here,
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: Like if you're not gonna if you're only gonna play
• 23:42
  Speaker 2: three times a year, I want to do a little
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: bit more than just that.
• 23:44
  Speaker 3: But then Tiger, like play three times a year and
• 23:45
  Speaker 3: I'll make sure to pay you the same way. Yeah,
• 23:48
  Speaker 3: then you live a better life not having to be
• 23:49
  Speaker 3: on the road.
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: He just loves his job.
• 23:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah, So Fred Siegel, he has the Twitter and the
• 23:55
  Speaker 3: Instagram freezing Cold Takes, where he constantly reposts people that
• 23:58
  Speaker 3: had really wrong takes or opinions in sports. He wrote
• 24:02
  Speaker 3: this book called Football Media's Most Inaccurate Predictions and the
• 24:05
  Speaker 3: Fascinating Stories behind Them. Never knew what this guy look like.
• 24:10
  Speaker 3: I've been following him forever. I love freazing goal takes
• 24:13
  Speaker 3: so funny. Yeah, here we go, here's my interview with him. Here, Fred,
• 24:18
  Speaker 3: how are you great?
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: Great?
• 24:20
  Speaker 3: Hey, let me say it is weird and awesome to
• 24:23
  Speaker 3: see her face. Because I follow you on Twitter, I
• 24:25
  Speaker 3: had no idea what you look like the fact that
• 24:28
  Speaker 3: there's this real it's like Pinocchio, he's a real boy.
• 24:32
  Speaker 3: The fact that you exist.
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: Is yeah, yeah, I don't usually trust pictures of myself.
• 24:38
  Speaker 3: So first of all, love what you do. I just
• 24:40
  Speaker 3: want to kind of know that because I have the
• 24:42
  Speaker 3: book and I want to talk about the book and
• 24:43
  Speaker 3: some of the stuff here, but I just want to
• 24:45
  Speaker 3: know kind of the genesis of this. And when you
• 24:48
  Speaker 3: started it, was it a youth thing or did you
• 24:50
  Speaker 3: think it could possibly blow up like it has?
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: No, not at all. I mean I started as I
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: was using Twitter all the time just for getting my
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: new is like sports stuff. This was like eight years ago.
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: I started it as a counter to just sports media
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: folks reposting their accurate predictions along with your self congratuatory
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: messages themselves. I said to myself, I, soone should be
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: the person to repost the tweets and the quotes where
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: some of those media folks turned out to be wrong.
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: And I just became that person. I didn't expect to
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: become big, but it did. At that time, I don't
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: think Search was being people weren't using Search as much
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: or you know, going back and finding other tweets as much.
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: At that time, I don't think people knew how good
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: the search function was or how easy it was to use.
• 25:39
  Speaker 3: Is it pretty cool with someone like a Scott van
• 25:41
  Speaker 3: Pelt or I mean I could list a lot of
• 25:43
  Speaker 3: the people who will then send you a message to
• 25:45
  Speaker 3: being like like like there's just talking with you or
• 25:48
  Speaker 3: whomever runs the account. All takes exposed, Like I'll see
• 25:51
  Speaker 3: these guys be like yeah, and I'll mention you in
• 25:54
  Speaker 3: a tweet or something like. That's pretty cool when people
• 25:56
  Speaker 3: who are like really respected to media acknowledge that what
• 25:58
  Speaker 3: you do is actually a serf.
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it's always cool. I mean at first it
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: was really I didn't even know what to do with it,
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: but now it's yeah, every time it's school. It's cool.
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: Sometimes when there's someone who you don't know that they
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: even knew about the account will tag me in something.
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: It's so a player or something like that, a good
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: player or a good coach or a GM.
• 26:23
  Speaker 3: I get a lot of people tagging you in my
• 26:25
  Speaker 3: account that I just know, and they're constantly going. You know,
• 26:30
  Speaker 3: if you see somebody post something even recently and that
• 26:33
  Speaker 3: they I'll see four or five people tag you just
• 26:35
  Speaker 3: that I follow because I follow you and them. But
• 26:38
  Speaker 3: I got to assume your feed is constantly filled with
• 26:42
  Speaker 3: people who are constantly finding old takes that were wrong
• 26:46
  Speaker 3: or kind of wrong. Is it just you having to
• 26:48
  Speaker 3: dive through and figure out the ones that are worth reposting?
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so many. I mean well seventy percent of it.
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: I get constant tagged with seventy percent of it, or
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: either ones I've used or one that I just was
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: tagged to five minutes earlier. Sometimes when something happens, twenty
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: five people will tag you to the same one at
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: the same time, so you have to wade through all that.
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: But yeah, it's great with everybody tagging me because then
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: they remember. Fans remember what people say, or especially the
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: reporters the report. Like a person who does TV rate
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: or radio does a three hour show totally about sports.
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: They don't remember what they said the day before. But
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: a fan, if you're a fan of the Knicks and
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: you know Nick Wright or someone on Fox Sports says
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: that's something that the Knicks sting. All Knicks fans will
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: remember that and save it for years, so they'll all
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: be happy to send it to me. And it happens
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: with any sport, any team. Sometimes it's just too niche
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: for me to use. But let's say, uh, you know
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: Dre women's basketball won a game, someone fan will send
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: me something that someone said they weren't going to win
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: the game. Like it's like that any type of sport,
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: in any type of level.
• 28:12
  Speaker 3: I have the book here, I'm holding it up for
• 28:13
  Speaker 3: the camera. It is freezing cold takes and you know
• 28:17
  Speaker 3: this one's football predominantly. And so is this the first
• 28:22
  Speaker 3: time that you've been able to make money off of
• 28:24
  Speaker 3: this specifically?
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: Well? No, I mean I make money in other ways
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: promoting whatever people want to promote, or you know, try
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: and making trying to promote different accounts, our different websites
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: and their articles and things like that, but mostly on Instagram.
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: Twitter is harder. But yeah, I mean this is the
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: first big project I've done, this book. Yeah, yeah, it's
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: really what I wanted to do from the beginning. After
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: a year of doing this, I never I've never gotten
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: into the gambling thing. I've never gotten into and that's
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: those are the people who try to reach out to
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: me have me promote their stuff all the time, and
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: I've never gotten into you just promoting other things that
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: I know nothing about. But the book is what I
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: really wanted to do.
• 29:11
  Speaker 3: So in the book, it's not just a coffee table
• 29:13
  Speaker 3: book if you're just putting old tweets out there. What
• 29:15
  Speaker 3: I like is you actually dive into stuff here, as
• 29:17
  Speaker 3: for example, Bill Belichick, that's a pretty famous one. Like,
• 29:21
  Speaker 3: give our listeners here because this is such a good story.
• 29:23
  Speaker 3: I think it would make our listeners go, Okay, I'd
• 29:25
  Speaker 3: like to read more in a similar vein kind of
• 29:28
  Speaker 3: give the Bill Belichick story.
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: All right, Well, so Bill Belichick was. Bill Belichick was
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: one of the most ridiculed coaches when he was hired
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: by the Patriots. And one of the reasons why is
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: because he had been a head coach for the Browns
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: of the Old Browns before they moved to Baltimore, and
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: he was the head coach of that team and they
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: end a losing record. He made the playoffs once, and
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: then he ended up going back to being an assistant
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: coach for Parcels, which he had done before with the Giants,
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: And after three years he was with ourselves with the Patriots,
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: and then he moved on to the Jets with Parcels
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: and then two thousand after in January of two thousand,
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: after Parcels left, he quit the Jets, and in Belichick's
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: contract it said that he would become the head coach
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: of the Jets as as soon as Parcels quit. He
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: was the defensive coordinator before that, and after one day
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: with the Jets he quit, and he did on a
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: press conference where he read a note that said I
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: quit as the New York Jets in the typical Belichick manner.
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: And he took so much crap from the New York
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: media right there were articles about how he was too afraid,
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: he couldn't never be the head coach and all this
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: type of things, and he quit because he wanted to
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: become the head coach of the Patriots. And it took
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: like three weeks of legal crap, and the Patriots had
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: to give up draft picks in order to get Belichick
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: because he was under contract with the Jets. And there
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: were so many articles within those three weeks talking about
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: how Belichick, how could he how why the Patriots want
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: him so bad? He has a losing record, he can't
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: talk to anybody. What's his name from? Oh no, what's
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: the guy from Adrian watchon Aarowski. He was a writer
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: for the in like a local New York paper or
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: a New Jersey paper. I think it was The Record
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: or something like that, and he wrote that, you know,
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: Bill Belichick will never be a head coach. He's not
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: good enough. He doesn't have the people skills. He should
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: be behind in the basement. Look he filmed, he was
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: particularly hard. He was a beat writer at the time
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: covering the Jets, and so when he got eventually got
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: hired by the Patriots, all New England and Boston media
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: started railing on. So it was like a month worth
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: of articles and talk show people just going after Belichick.
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: And even after his first season they went eight and
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: eight or something like that, or they didn't make the playoffs,
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: and think they had a losing record that could have
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: been six and ten. His first season with New England
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: and then his second season with Downgland they were one
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: and three and then Drew Bledsoe got hurt and Tom
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: Brady came in and everything kind of just shuttled from there.
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: But Bill Belichick was probably the higher of Bill Belichick
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: is probably one of the most scrutinized highers I've seen.
• 32:22
  Speaker 3: Fraising cult takes. Football media's most inaccurate predictions and the
• 32:25
  Speaker 3: fascinating stories behind them. You can get the book on Amazon.
• 32:29
  Speaker 3: And what I like about it too is you don't
• 32:30
  Speaker 3: have to be like a nerd like me that really
• 32:34
  Speaker 3: likes the granular part of the game. You can This
• 32:37
  Speaker 3: is fun for that. But also if you're just a
• 32:40
  Speaker 3: casual sports fan.
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: Chapters Rolet Hart, you don't have to read the first
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: chapter to read the third chapter. You could pick and choose,
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: and it's a lot like the Belichick chapter. I just
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: go through the whole context of why people were saying
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: what they were saying, and some could come to read
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: it and say to themselves, Oh, I can understand why
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: they didn't like Belichick.
• 33:01
  Speaker 3: I bet you get a lot of draft like analysis
• 33:05
  Speaker 3: that was way wrong, especially when draft season comes back around.
• 33:09
  Speaker 3: You know, I got to imagine people are tagging you
• 33:11
  Speaker 3: in all kinds of stuff that you've seen one hundred
• 33:12
  Speaker 3: times about drafts three, four, five, six years ago. Can
• 33:15
  Speaker 3: you think of anyone offhand that you've got a lot
• 33:17
  Speaker 3: of tweets about where like this is a terrible pick
• 33:20
  Speaker 3: ended up being pretty good.
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: It's polarizing players. Polarizing players. One of them is Josh
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: Allen Now josh Allen was a mixed bag. But the
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: people who didn't like him, they did not like him.
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: There's specific statistics that will be relied upon, whether it's
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: physical traits, which Josh Allen had great physical traits, that's
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: why he was so high on everybody's list, But he
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: had a terrible completion percentage in college, so it was like, oh,
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: he's only being picked because he has a big he
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: has great physical traits, and people would compare him to
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: Ryan Lee back in that time with Ryan Leaf and
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: Peyton Manning in nineteen ninety eight where Peyton Manning was
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: drafted ahead of Ryan Leaf and Ryan Leaf was supposed
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: to be such a great quarterback it turned out to
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: be a huge bus And anytime there's a big player
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: or a big guy with big physical traits and didn't
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: have the greatest NFL college career, Anthony Richardson's one of
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: these guys who was just picked forth by the Colts.
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: He didn't have a great completion percentage and he didn't
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: have a great winning percent but he's an absolutely absurd athlete.
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: So he's one of those guys you want to save.
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: What everybody's saying, there's a lot of guys who everyone
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: thought was going to be great it turned out to
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: be really bad. Those are fun too, like Josh Rosen
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: chosen Rosen. Yeah.
• 34:30
  Speaker 3: Two final questions for you here. Number one, have you
• 34:32
  Speaker 3: ever had riders or athletes to reach out to you
• 34:34
  Speaker 3: because you've upset them that they've exposed something they would
• 34:37
  Speaker 3: rather not have exposed.
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah? I have, And sometimes it's sometimes I'll take it
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: down because I you know, I'm not if they believe
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: that it's going to be harmful to them. But most
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: of the time they're complaining that it wasn't it wasn't wrong.
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: They'll say, oh, that wasn't wrong. He didn't really turned
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: out to be bad. But at the beginning, before I
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: had a lot of followers, I used to get a
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: lot of people would quote tweet me or reply to
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: me that I was a loser or something like that.
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: And because there was no really repercussion. But once I
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: got a lot of following out just retweet those people
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: and they it was a bad look. It's always a
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: bad look.
• 35:19
  Speaker 3: Final question for you, because a lot of these shows
• 35:23
  Speaker 3: now and I could list three or four of them,
• 35:25
  Speaker 3: they have people on for the sake of arguing and
• 35:27
  Speaker 3: sometimes people will take an opinion probably they don't really
• 35:30
  Speaker 3: believe in. Do you ever have to dissect ones see
• 35:33
  Speaker 3: which ones are actually real and which ones were just
• 35:34
  Speaker 3: for TV or clickbait?
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: Well, impossible to do that, bully. But I think inherently
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: most of the opinions that are made on TV are
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: for entertaining the viewer, or else you wouldn't have the show. So,
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: I mean, none of those people are going to say, oh, well,
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: it could be a good game. You know, I don't
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: know who's gonna win, but both teams have a good chance.
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: But that would be boring, it'd be fired. But so
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: they say things I think that they mean, but they
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: say I'm a little bit extremely like hyperbolic. But some
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: people like Pritt, Skip Bayless, and there's others I guess
• 36:13
  Speaker 1: you can tell right away this is their shtick. Like
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: Skip Bayless will always say something bad about Lebron James.
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: He always takes that side, like you can't really take
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: that seriously. But in the book, it's funny because in
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: the book I go over in the chapter about Dallas
• 36:29
  Speaker 1: Cowboys from the nineties, Skip Bayless was doing the same
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: thing and he does now, but just as a columnist
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: and he did it with Troy Aikman, and there was
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: a big controversy with him and Troy Acan back in
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: like mid nineties when he wrote a book and wrote
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: that he heard rumors that Troy was gay, and Troy
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: hates him forever since that, but before that, Skip would
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: write an article every day about how he hated Troy Aikman,
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: about how Troygan was terrible, how he'd never win a thing.
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: He never would do that, you know, just like he
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: did with Lebron. So that was his stick forever. So
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: I don't really take those seriously. I don't use him
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: that much, and some guys like that try not to.
• 37:07
  Speaker 3: Right here, it is freezing could takes football and media's
• 37:10
  Speaker 3: most inaccurate predictions and the fascinating stories behind him. I
• 37:13
  Speaker 3: like it. I was gonna like it even if it
• 37:16
  Speaker 3: was a coffee table book, cause I thought that would
• 37:17
  Speaker 3: be interesting. But it's even better that it's like and
• 37:20
  Speaker 3: I don't want to say in depth because I don't
• 37:22
  Speaker 3: want people to think that it's so inside baseball that
• 37:24
  Speaker 3: you can understand it. But there's some really great information
• 37:26
  Speaker 3: here that I feel like, and you just tell a
• 37:30
  Speaker 3: story through what you do. It's not even that you're like, look,
• 37:33
  Speaker 3: how wrong everybody was. You're able to kind of recount Yeah,
• 37:36
  Speaker 3: you're able to kind of recount history, real fun, big
• 37:39
  Speaker 3: parts of history through what you do every single day. Hey,
• 37:42
  Speaker 3: A big fan of your feeds obviously. And the part
• 37:46
  Speaker 3: of the book that I have, Rex, I'm gonna finish
• 37:48
  Speaker 3: the whole thing is really great. And thank you for
• 37:50
  Speaker 3: the time. Fred, really appreciate it. Good luck with the book.
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: Thanks so much. I appreciate Okay.
• 37:55
  Speaker 3: Thank you, Tretzie. We got to check out the book again.
• 37:58
  Speaker 3: Really good, really easy to read. We're done. I go
• 38:03
  Speaker 3: with my final thought. First, first of all, read here
• 38:05
  Speaker 3: is your putter. Read is lucky that I'm left handed,
• 38:13
  Speaker 3: but because you can come good if you want. Okay,
• 38:14
  Speaker 3: because I'm left handed.
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: You can have your own putter head covered.
• 38:20
  Speaker 3: Because I'm left handed. And I, you know, have a
• 38:23
  Speaker 3: deal with Cobra. They give me a lot of great stuff.
• 38:28
  Speaker 3: And I went and did a putter fitting with Cobra.
• 38:31
  Speaker 3: I didn't know that you need to put. They had
• 38:33
  Speaker 3: all these analytics on me putting, but I don't know
• 38:36
  Speaker 3: that I could go and put the same way today.
• 38:37
  Speaker 3: I think it's just like the day I'm not good
• 38:39
  Speaker 3: enough to be consistent even in my inconsistent analytics, right,
• 38:42
  Speaker 3: but still getting a new putter and I'm not used
• 38:45
  Speaker 3: that one, but like once and so I read it's
• 38:48
  Speaker 3: left handed. He gets it. Read Just there you go, buddy,
• 38:51
  Speaker 3: Thank you man. I appreciate it. So my final thought
• 38:53
  Speaker 3: is that. And secondly, what is the driving round? Just
• 38:55
  Speaker 3: crushing it? God? I mean, I was hitting it so good.
• 38:58
  Speaker 3: I'm like, yes, maybe let's go have a simulator freaking
• 39:02
  Speaker 3: laying it out like I'm I shot one over through nine,
• 39:05
  Speaker 3: It's played nine holes, went to the course. I'm broken
• 39:08
  Speaker 3: in my brain. I don't know. I'm broken reading I
• 39:11
  Speaker 3: went twice.
• 39:12
  Speaker 2: I'm broken, really right, it's all in your head now.
• 39:15
  Speaker 2: I don't get it.
• 39:16
  Speaker 3: I don't know, dude. I don't know because I get
• 39:19
  Speaker 3: on a court out somewhere and I don't really get
• 39:22
  Speaker 3: nervo or I don't let that kind of stuff affect
• 39:24
  Speaker 3: me so much. I'm not super comfortable playing golf front
• 39:27
  Speaker 3: of others, but I've been a fair golfer for a while.
• 39:31
  Speaker 3: I can't even get the ball in the air to
• 39:33
  Speaker 3: where I'm like, what's happening? I thought one time, Okay,
• 39:36
  Speaker 3: maybe my body's it's been like reading. I played golf
• 39:38
  Speaker 3: twice small, we did like a part of three nine,
• 39:42
  Speaker 3: we did another and just bizarre, dang, something's broken in
• 39:48
  Speaker 3: my brain. Reader, What would you like to say about that?
• 39:50
  Speaker 1: Uh?
• 39:51
  Speaker 5: Oh yeah, going on that. I mean you even similar video.
• 39:53
  Speaker 5: As soon as we got done, I went right home
• 39:55
  Speaker 5: and got the simulators, like not even looking at the
• 39:58
  Speaker 5: ball and yeah. Just but my aunt came up this
• 40:04
  Speaker 5: weekend and I was trying to entertain her, but also
• 40:07
  Speaker 5: I really wanted to play golf too, so I took
• 40:08
  Speaker 5: her out on the course with me and no. Man, Yeah,
• 40:14
  Speaker 5: but so I didn't know if I was gonna get
• 40:17
  Speaker 5: paired up with people or not. So we go out there,
• 40:19
  Speaker 5: and of course we get paired up with two guys.
• 40:22
  Speaker 3: And these guys are studs.
• 40:24
  Speaker 2: They they looked the part.
• 40:26
  Speaker 5: I know, they're incredible, and they played incredible. And so
• 40:30
  Speaker 5: the whole the whole time I'm playing, I have to
• 40:32
  Speaker 5: deal with me hitting a shot. I can shake it
• 40:34
  Speaker 5: into the woods, and she's over at the cart going yay.
• 40:41
  Speaker 3: Yeah, man, that's funny. I probably thought that was your girlfriend.
• 40:45
  Speaker 5: God, guys, I don't know, man, was it was Uh,
• 40:49
  Speaker 5: it was rough but you know you want rough you
• 40:52
  Speaker 5: saw me.
• 40:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's true. Its way rougher. Then your aunt cheering
• 40:56
  Speaker 3: for you, giving you love and support. That is true.
• 40:59
  Speaker 5: That is But when you shake it to the woods
• 41:01
  Speaker 5: and she goes yay, and I'm just.
• 41:03
  Speaker 3: Like, m almost at someone's car, is that making it worse? Yeah,
• 41:07
  Speaker 3: that's what I mean.
• 41:08
  Speaker 2: I'm like, no, this is not a yea good? All right, Kevin,
• 41:12
  Speaker 2: let's continue the golf talk here. I just want to
• 41:14
  Speaker 2: say thank you again for Friday. Went and got fitted.
• 41:17
  Speaker 2: It was awesome, had a lot of fun reading and
• 41:19
  Speaker 2: I and you were there. You were hitting it great there.
• 41:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 41:22
  Speaker 3: First I wasn't and then I was like, ask, screw this,
• 41:24
  Speaker 3: I'm just gonna hit it like a baby baby. Yeah,
• 41:26
  Speaker 3: and it's fine. I hate like a baby baby, but
• 41:28
  Speaker 3: I was like twenty yards shorter, so I was like,
• 41:30
  Speaker 3: I gotta hit like a bababy everything. Laugh me for
• 41:32
  Speaker 3: like a baybaby. I don't know what. My brain's broken,
