- 0:45Speaker 1: Candy Aveling, George I Corn and jv Ellis a regular
- 0:48Speaker 1: Wednesday Night crew. Hello, everybody, what are we gonna talk about?
- 0:55Speaker 1: Lebron Jaye, Michael Jordan, Tom Brenneman have a unique non
- 0:59Speaker 1: sports story that we're going to talk about Chinese badminton?
- 1:02Speaker 1: My goodness, why would you talk about that? Andy Murray,
- 1:05Speaker 1: Russell Westbrook, Chicago sports ruggles, and a few other notes
- 1:09Speaker 1: are we're talking about? But that set okay, no better
- 1:13Speaker 1: place to lead off than Michael Jordan and Lebron names, folks.
- 1:17Speaker 1: This is going to be a statistic field broadcast, though
- 1:20Speaker 1: if you might need a pen and paper here Michael
- 1:24Speaker 1: Jordan has earned ninety four million dollars in career earnnings
- 1:27Speaker 1: in basketball, and Lebron James has earned five hundred and
- 1:32Speaker 1: eighty three million dollars in basketball. Can you believe that
- 1:36Speaker 1: that isn't good enough? Michael Jordan ninety four million in
- 1:41Speaker 1: his entire career Lebron James for a two year contract
- 1:45Speaker 1: of one hundred and four million dollars. So, Joe Ellis,
- 1:48Speaker 1: what are your thoughts about that one?
- 1:51Speaker 2: It's just a different time. There's more money in sports now.
- 1:54Speaker 2: What would Babe Ruth be worth now? At MLB? I mean,
- 1:58Speaker 2: you know, when you got guys getting five hundred million
- 2:00Speaker 2: dollar baseball contracts, what would you pay a guy like paper?
- 2:04Speaker 3: What would Willie Mays make? Now? You know, I mean
- 2:07Speaker 3: some of the old time.
- 2:08Speaker 2: Great players would be making ridiculous amounts now. It's just
- 2:12Speaker 2: it's this sun of the times as the moody that's
- 2:15Speaker 2: in sports.
- 2:17Speaker 4: George, Yeah, I mean, you know, you know they talk
- 2:21Speaker 4: about the price of inflation and everything going up, and
- 2:25Speaker 4: I agree with JB.
- 2:26Speaker 5: I mean, there's too much of that going on.
- 2:29Speaker 4: But again, you're always going to have the best of
- 2:31Speaker 4: the best, which Lebron is and claims to be, and
- 2:35Speaker 4: he obviously has earned that title, you know, to get
- 2:38Speaker 4: much more than Jordan. But I mean, you know, it's
- 2:41Speaker 4: it really is. It's just amazing these contracts these teams
- 2:45Speaker 4: are pouring out, especially the NBA and to a certain extent,
- 2:49Speaker 4: you know, the NFL as far as quarterbacks especially go.
- 2:52Speaker 4: But no, I see what you're saying, Scott. I mean,
- 2:56Speaker 4: you know it's it doesn't seem like it's that long ago.
- 2:58Speaker 4: You know that that Michael basketball and obviously we have
- 3:02Speaker 4: still great memories of him, yeah, either pro or con
- 3:06Speaker 4: but boy Lebron, he just went to the bank.
- 3:09Speaker 5: On those those salary figures. Oh my gosh.
- 3:12Speaker 4: It's amazing when you when you share those totals with us,
- 3:15Speaker 4: because man, oh man, is he making out like a bandit.
- 3:18Speaker 4: But again, you know, everything in sports, like like Joe said,
- 3:23Speaker 4: I mean, everything is going up. I mean, you know, prices,
- 3:26Speaker 4: sports ticket prices and television rights all that stuff. For
- 3:30Speaker 4: a better day, maybe we can talk about that. But yeah,
- 3:33Speaker 4: that is amazing Scott. When you when you throw out
- 3:34Speaker 4: those numbers like that, two of the greatest and the
- 3:37Speaker 4: b two greatest positively of all time.
- 3:40Speaker 1: I can't do what are your thoughts.
- 3:45Speaker 6: Yes, let's face it, the price of everything has gone up.
- 3:48Speaker 6: I mean, you go to the grocery store these days
- 3:52Speaker 6: and one hundred dollars isn't even your cart full, whereas
- 3:55Speaker 6: back ten fifteen years ago, one hundred bucks would have
- 4:00Speaker 6: you a whole cart full of groceries. Like, the price
- 4:03Speaker 6: of everything has gone up astronomically, I would say, except
- 4:07Speaker 6: for maybe some of the US, regular people's salaries haven't
- 4:11Speaker 6: gone up as astronomically as everything else is. But the
- 4:16Speaker 6: money in sports has grown astronomically. They're allowing betting now,
- 4:22Speaker 6: there is so much more money. There's the rich as
- 4:26Speaker 6: we as some people say, the rich keep getting richer,
- 4:30Speaker 6: and so you have these guys making folk who lots
- 4:33Speaker 6: of money. You know, you can debate all you want,
- 4:39Speaker 6: James versus Jordan, who's better, who's had the most points,
- 4:43Speaker 6: who's had the most titles, who's had this, But they
- 4:48Speaker 6: also didn't play in the same era, so sometimes it's
- 4:51Speaker 6: hard to really compare money compare the three point shot
- 4:56Speaker 6: has made, you know, is different. There's more. There was
- 5:01Speaker 6: way more defense back when Jordan played then well than
- 5:05Speaker 6: there is now in the game. So yeah, you would
- 5:10Speaker 6: expect Lebron has made more money because the contracts are
- 5:14Speaker 6: way more. There's way more money in the sport. There's more,
- 5:18Speaker 6: way more money thrown around in the world.
- 5:22Speaker 1: Well, here's the thing. I'm giving you a touple more
- 5:25Speaker 1: numbers and we're going to d loses comments because they're
- 5:27Speaker 1: pretty good. Number one, Michael Jordan's six Lebron James four titles. Wise, Okay,
- 5:33Speaker 1: if it weren't Jordan, Lebron James isn't making that kind
- 5:36Speaker 1: of money. And then add Magic Johnson Larry Bird into
- 5:39Speaker 1: the mix. So I have nothing against Lebron James. And yes, Candy,
- 5:42Speaker 1: I'll make it. You're right, there's a lot more defense
- 5:45Speaker 1: back then than there is now. Everybody plays paddy Cake
- 5:48Speaker 1: paddy Cake Baker's man to choose from the cheap seats.
- 5:52Speaker 1: I think that's a bunch of bologny. That's why it's
- 5:54Speaker 1: hard to watch a game. Let's go to the chat room.
- 5:58Speaker 1: First of all, George, you can ring them.
- 6:00Speaker 4: Yeah, d Low seventy seventh, thanks for joining us. Lebron
- 6:04Speaker 4: James made the best Bowl. Will come back in the
- 6:06Speaker 4: day Lightning Lemonade by Bubba Lches.
- 6:10Speaker 1: I don't think I can eat that anymore.
- 6:13Speaker 4: Make the right decision this November at the polls. That's
- 6:16Speaker 4: all I'll say about it, Okay, sir.
- 6:18Speaker 1: Okay, Now we'll go on to the next set intrigues me.
- 6:22Speaker 1: Lebron James are drafted in two thousand and three, has
- 6:26Speaker 1: eighty one hundred and sixty two total career points, and
- 6:31Speaker 1: the Minnesota Timberwolves had seven, seven hundred and fifteen total
- 6:35Speaker 1: career playoff points. So these are all playoff numbers. How
- 6:38Speaker 1: do you like that this guy got more playoff points
- 6:41Speaker 1: in the Minnesota Timberwolves. All right, Candy, you can lead
- 6:44Speaker 1: off of this one.
- 6:46Speaker 6: You know, he's taken teams deep. He's played on different
- 6:49Speaker 6: teams that have gotten the playoffs. He's probably played in
- 6:52Speaker 6: way more playoffs than the Timberwolves have played. I can't
- 6:57Speaker 6: tell you how many playoffs the Timberwolves have actually been in.
- 7:02Speaker 6: But it's not a name that you associate with the playoffs.
- 7:06Speaker 6: At least it's not a name that I associate with
- 7:08Speaker 6: the playoffs.
- 7:10Speaker 1: Yeah, that's amazing. I got to read that number again.
- 7:15Speaker 1: Sixty two total career playoff points in two thousand and
- 7:18Speaker 1: three versus the Wolves seventy seven and fifteen.
- 7:21Speaker 4: So okay, George yeah, you know, they've been to me,
- 7:24Speaker 4: they've been under performers for a long time. Minnesota, I mean,
- 7:27Speaker 4: they've had some good teams, but they just seem to fade,
- 7:30Speaker 4: you know, get eliminated in round one or at the
- 7:33Speaker 4: very best Round two the Timberwolves. That is but interesting
- 7:38Speaker 4: connection right now. Of course, I don't know how many
- 7:41Speaker 4: of the listeners and viewers know, but you know, Minnesota
- 7:44Speaker 4: sent their team over way back in the day to
- 7:47Speaker 4: Los Angeles, you know, and you know the Lakers, and
- 7:53Speaker 4: now Lebron that's his team. So it's interesting that those
- 7:56Speaker 4: are the comparisons that you did, Scott, because Minnesota and Lebron.
- 8:00Speaker 4: But yeah, I mean, yeah, he's just racked up so
- 8:02Speaker 4: many points in all his years. Of course, don't forget,
- 8:05Speaker 4: you know, with him not going to college, he has
- 8:07Speaker 4: obviously had a much longer, you know, pro career than
- 8:11Speaker 4: than the normal than the normal I would say, normal Joe,
- 8:14Speaker 4: but we have a normal Joe on the Sugar Day.
- 8:18Speaker 1: Joe. You know what, there's something wrong with you tonight.
- 8:22Speaker 1: I corn you're actually funny.
- 8:23Speaker 5: Said that's good.
- 8:25Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know. I'm not used to I'm used
- 8:27Speaker 1: to chewing you out. Well, yeah, yeah. But ironically, when
- 8:31Speaker 1: I came up to this topic, I never dawn on
- 8:32Speaker 1: me about the Minneapolis Lakers. But that's where the Laker
- 8:35Speaker 1: did again, and they kept the name, so interesting points
- 8:38Speaker 1: all the way around. All Right, well, you better quit
- 8:40Speaker 1: while you're ahead so that we can go to the
- 8:41Speaker 1: real Joe and let him try to make some sense
- 8:43Speaker 1: out of this statistic.
- 8:45Speaker 5: Go ahead, Joe, it's it's a joke.
- 8:48Speaker 2: If I could choose where I want to play with,
- 8:51Speaker 2: who I want to play with, who's going to be
- 8:53Speaker 2: my best friend, you know, who's gonna ah little bit
- 8:57Speaker 2: of trade for how my team's going to be set up.
- 9:01Speaker 2: I would hope you get the more playoff points than organizations.
- 9:05Speaker 2: You know, the Timberwolves haven't been around that long. They
- 9:08Speaker 2: were an expansion team. I don't expect them to have
- 9:11Speaker 2: a great playoff history. But you know, when you're drafted
- 9:14Speaker 2: by one team in one city and you make this
- 9:17Speaker 2: big decision and big TV fracas with Jim Gray, you know,
- 9:23Speaker 2: and you're going to South Beach because your buddy Dwayne
- 9:25Speaker 2: Wayne is there and Chris Bosh is coming in, I
- 9:28Speaker 2: would hope you score a lot of playoff points because
- 9:30Speaker 2: you're the man on that team, and then you go
- 9:32Speaker 2: back to Cleveland and you have another good team because
- 9:35Speaker 2: you got your guy Kyrie there, and you finally win
- 9:38Speaker 2: them a championship. And then you know you're so greedy
- 9:40Speaker 2: you gotta go to the Lakers because you want to
- 9:42Speaker 2: be SHOWTM. You think who you are, you think you're magic,
- 9:44Speaker 2: which you're not, you know, and then you say, let's
- 9:47Speaker 2: go get Anthony Davis because we're gonna win because we
- 9:49Speaker 2: got a d because he's one of the best young
- 9:51Speaker 2: players in the game. Can't stay healthy, you know, I
- 9:53Speaker 2: would hope you get a lot of playoff points.
- 9:56Speaker 3: But when it's all said and done, he's a joke.
- 10:00Speaker 1: Well you know what, Joe, I'll tell you. You weren't
- 10:04Speaker 1: here last week, but boy, you saved some of your
- 10:06Speaker 1: best commentary for the night. I'm telling you this because
- 10:09Speaker 1: number One, that debacle about the South Beach one was
- 10:13Speaker 1: a joke. Two, he's chasen championship. I hain't nothing wrong
- 10:16Speaker 1: with that. I think his best championship actually was with
- 10:19Speaker 1: the Cleveland Cavaliers anyways, not the asterisk one in LA
- 10:23Speaker 1: and the two that he got in Miami where they
- 10:24Speaker 1: were supposed to have the old Wood two, three, four, five, Yeah, okay,
- 10:28Speaker 1: they were the hunted at that point. So you know,
- 10:32Speaker 1: and Lebron, the GM still doesn't give him more championships
- 10:36Speaker 1: than Jordan, and of course Magic has five of them.
- 10:39Speaker 1: So I'll tell you right now, and me personally, I
- 10:43Speaker 1: wouldn't put Lebron James in my top five. I really wouldn't.
- 10:47Speaker 1: I would even shove him closer to ten when you
- 10:49Speaker 1: look at the NBA history of all these players, and yes,
- 10:52Speaker 1: d Lo's you are right. I'm putting the heat on
- 10:54Speaker 1: Georgia last couple of nights. But that's okay if you
- 10:57Speaker 1: do it after forty year over years, what's a couple
- 10:59Speaker 1: more nights anyway. But the reality, the whole situation is this. Okay,
- 11:03Speaker 1: people can debate me all day long. I don't care.
- 11:05Speaker 1: I'm always good for a good debate. But when you
- 11:08Speaker 1: look at all the players that have played in the
- 11:10Speaker 1: NBA and they're beending off a lot of great players,
- 11:13Speaker 1: I wouldn't even put Lebron James in my top ten.
- 11:15Speaker 1: I really wouldn't. But you know, if I want to
- 11:18Speaker 1: get assassinated, then so be it. But I don't care.
- 11:22Speaker 1: You know, you live life once anyhow, and you know,
- 11:24Speaker 1: for anybody that's ever watched the movie talk radio, maybe
- 11:27Speaker 1: that's how I'll end up. Anyways, I'm not gonna leave
- 11:30Speaker 1: that out there for discussion because somebody might get some
- 11:33Speaker 1: crazy ideas, but with no gun control laws here. But
- 11:37Speaker 1: the reality is, situation is Joe, I know, he's he's
- 11:40Speaker 1: he's putting his head down. They don't know what's coming
- 11:42Speaker 1: out of my mouth back and again nobody ever does.
- 11:45Speaker 1: But the reality is, you're right. I mean, you know,
- 11:48Speaker 1: let's get all these championships. He's only got four in
- 11:50Speaker 1: his pocket. You can have all the scoring that you want,
- 11:53Speaker 1: three point shots and being surrounded with a bunch of
- 11:55Speaker 1: great players, but how many real championships? Not one with
- 12:00Speaker 1: COVID you have? You have three, that's it, two in
- 12:04Speaker 1: Miami and one in Cleveland, and not the astrosk one
- 12:08Speaker 1: that occurred out of Orlando. So all right, well, you know, along,
- 12:11Speaker 1: I'm gonna lighten up the mood a little bit. I'm
- 12:13Speaker 1: gonna try to lighten up the mood. So everybody speak
- 12:16Speaker 1: on this one. Yeah, I have to lighten up the mood.
- 12:21Speaker 1: I've got a unique non sports story called a police
- 12:24Speaker 1: officer pulls over a self driving car or driving on
- 12:28Speaker 1: the wrong side of the road. Oh goodness, Candy, you've
- 12:32Speaker 1: been driving with me a long time. What do you
- 12:34Speaker 1: think about this topic?
- 12:39Speaker 6: It scares me because why would a self driving car
- 12:45Speaker 6: which you know that they're up and coming. Whether you
- 12:48Speaker 6: agree with that or not, or want to be in
- 12:51Speaker 6: a car like that or not, it's the future and
- 12:54Speaker 6: it's coming. So did someone misprogram this car that it
- 13:00Speaker 6: was in the wrong driving on the wrong that's kind
- 13:03Speaker 6: of scary because if it's in the wrong lane, like,
- 13:05Speaker 6: could it have caused an accident or what happened? Like
- 13:09Speaker 6: that's just kind of scary. Like, I mean, I don't
- 13:13Speaker 6: know if no one's driving the car, there's no one
- 13:16Speaker 6: to react to stop that. And I guess I've never
- 13:20Speaker 6: been in a self driving car, so I wouldn't know
- 13:23Speaker 6: if you can override it or how quickly you can
- 13:26Speaker 6: override that. But I could think that I could see
- 13:31Speaker 6: where this could cause a lot of accidents, because, let's
- 13:34Speaker 6: face it, a lot there have been a lot of
- 13:37Speaker 6: glitches in different things that have been programmed on computers
- 13:41Speaker 6: on whatever. That it's that's kind of scary.
- 13:47Speaker 1: So let me ask you a question. What's the police
- 13:49Speaker 1: officer going to tell them the self timing car. I'd
- 13:51Speaker 1: like to know exactly if that's a Websard dictionary.
- 13:55Speaker 6: Hey, there's got to be an owner of that car,
- 13:58Speaker 6: so that someone's got to get.
- 14:00Speaker 1: Yeah, but it was a car that did the problem,
- 14:02Speaker 1: not the owner.
- 14:03Speaker 6: Yeah, but the owner was in the car. Owner must
- 14:06Speaker 6: have been in the car and own the car. There's
- 14:08Speaker 6: got to be a way to override some of that.
- 14:11Speaker 1: No, No, you know what, I don't think I'm smart
- 14:13Speaker 1: enough to know. And I'm king of the road and
- 14:14Speaker 1: I know that. All right, what do you think about
- 14:17Speaker 1: this one?
- 14:18Speaker 4: And yeah, it's it's not only crazy, but it's scary
- 14:23Speaker 4: as well. There's just been too much stuff going on
- 14:27Speaker 4: with accidents and stuff that there always are. But man,
- 14:30Speaker 4: these autonomous cars and and like you said, you know,
- 14:34Speaker 4: driving on the wrong side of the road, and I
- 14:37Speaker 4: mean you're talking about, you know what we're talking about
- 14:40Speaker 4: potentially the loss of human life. And anytime that's some
- 14:43Speaker 4: stuff comes up like that, I'm sorry, man versus machine.
- 14:47Speaker 4: I'll take man's chances, okay on that, which means I'm
- 14:51Speaker 4: not a big fan of autonomous driving vehicles and electric vehicles,
- 14:58Speaker 4: but I mean, I know it's the way of the
- 14:59Speaker 4: few for a lot of people and a lot of
- 15:01Speaker 4: the automobile companies. But yeah, I mean that scenarioly is Yeah, well, Candy,
- 15:07Speaker 4: I think maybe Scott is saying maybe there's nobody in
- 15:09Speaker 4: that car. So it's kind of a funny thing too,
- 15:12Speaker 4: because the cop says pull over and it's driving it south,
- 15:15Speaker 4: which there are some that do that, and you know,
- 15:18Speaker 4: it's just scary as hell because if they do venture
- 15:21Speaker 4: off to the wrong side, wrong way, Oh my god,
- 15:25Speaker 4: it's just crazy. It's crazy to think about. And I
- 15:28Speaker 4: really don't look forward to that day when if I'm
- 15:31Speaker 4: in that car like that, watching it drive by itself.
- 15:35Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I'll go back to the old days when
- 15:37Speaker 1: we used to watch lots in space and the robot
- 15:39Speaker 1: would say that does not compute because this one doesn't
- 15:42Speaker 1: come ye at all. Yeah I remember that. Yeah, me too.
- 15:46Speaker 1: It almost feels like yesterday, a lot of yesterdays ago.
- 15:48Speaker 5: Joe.
- 15:49Speaker 1: You know, we waited a little while here for you
- 15:52Speaker 1: to answer this once, so go ahead make us problem.
- 15:56Speaker 2: There are a lot of problems with a self dropping car,
- 15:58Speaker 2: you know who, Like Candy said, there's got to be
- 16:01Speaker 2: an override, you know, there has to be and if
- 16:06Speaker 2: it's computers we see nowadays major hospitals have ransomware attacks,
- 16:13Speaker 2: you know, and computers that have got taken over.
- 16:16Speaker 3: Who's to say.
- 16:17Speaker 2: You're not driving on the highway and a hacker decides
- 16:20Speaker 2: to hack your car, you know, it decides how they're
- 16:24Speaker 2: going to drive it.
- 16:24Speaker 3: What do you do then?
- 16:26Speaker 2: You know, if you don't pay three thousand dollars immediately,
- 16:29Speaker 2: we're going to crash you into the side of the road,
- 16:32Speaker 2: into a barrier.
- 16:33Speaker 3: What do you do?
- 16:35Speaker 1: You know?
- 16:36Speaker 3: So, I don't know.
- 16:37Speaker 2: I'm not a fan of you know, driving should be
- 16:40Speaker 2: a human interaction, like I'm hiring. I want my humans
- 16:44Speaker 2: in control of things, not computers.
- 16:46Speaker 1: There's no way I'm driving one of them things. I
- 16:48Speaker 1: can tell you right now. Candy knows them at I'm
- 16:51Speaker 1: fiery behind the wheel as it is. And even though
- 16:53Speaker 1: I'm not wearing my King of the Road hat tonight
- 16:55Speaker 1: because I can promote Pee brand, there's no way I'm
- 16:57Speaker 1: driving one of those things at all. And I'm happy
- 16:59Speaker 1: with uead Candy.
- 17:02Speaker 6: My other thought is is I remember watching and I
- 17:06Speaker 6: don't know which crime show it was, but they did
- 17:09Speaker 6: there was a car where someone was driving it and
- 17:13Speaker 6: they stopped it because they hacked into the system. So
- 17:17Speaker 6: my question is, with all the fraud that we see
- 17:21Speaker 6: going on, can they if it's a self driving car,
- 17:25Speaker 6: can they hack into the computer and bring that car
- 17:29Speaker 6: to them? And now all of a sudden it's a
- 17:31Speaker 6: stolen car, and how many of these can they do?
- 17:34Speaker 6: And then you know, alter it? And I mean that
- 17:39Speaker 6: just scares me because I really think it's leading us
- 17:42Speaker 6: up to potential danger and fraud.
- 17:46Speaker 1: And yeah, yeah, we're Josh Odor when I need this guy.
- 17:51Speaker 1: Here's a guy that drives a Tesla truck. Okay, I'd
- 17:54Speaker 1: like to see him come on here and voice an
- 17:56Speaker 1: opinion there. I wouldn't drive that day. Roy Fighter Stole
- 17:59Speaker 1: made a comment on his timeline recently that he thinks
- 18:02Speaker 1: that should be in Afghanistan and I ran in Iraq, okay.
- 18:06Speaker 1: So you know, Josh and the guys are huge fans
- 18:09Speaker 1: of South they are. But there's no way I'm gonna
- 18:11Speaker 1: be caught dead in one of them. No way. I'm
- 18:14Speaker 1: King of the Road and I'm not giving that title up.
- 18:17Speaker 1: So Josh is anywhere? Are here? Go ahead, come on in, Josh.
- 18:21Speaker 1: Of course, Josh is really good. He'll listen to the show,
- 18:24Speaker 1: and I'll get nailed with all these FaceTime calls about
- 18:26Speaker 1: his opinion one way or another. But there's no way
- 18:28Speaker 1: I'm going to go there. What's going on? Just when
- 18:31Speaker 1: I was thinking about all right, josh No, Actually he's
- 18:34Speaker 1: on time because he is to talk about the self
- 18:36Speaker 1: driving vehicles. This guy's been waiting. Would you be caught
- 18:40Speaker 1: dead in the Tesla? And you bet, brother, I wouldn't
- 18:42Speaker 1: be caught dead in one of those. But you know, hey,
- 18:45Speaker 1: if you like to drive it and suit you find
- 18:47Speaker 1: but there's no way. And let me tell you another
- 18:49Speaker 1: thing about driving on the wrong side of the road.
- 18:50Speaker 1: I hear when you go out to Britain or any
- 18:53Speaker 1: of those countries that actually go ahead and you drive
- 18:57Speaker 1: on there. Many years ago, I drove a motor scoot
- 19:00Speaker 1: and one of those islands out there on the wrong
- 19:03Speaker 1: side of the road, and I got used to it.
- 19:05Speaker 1: But you know, there's another challenge on the road I've
- 19:07Speaker 1: had to deal with. But you know, hey, what can
- 19:09Speaker 1: I tell you? There's no way. Now, let's go to
- 19:12Speaker 1: Joshua doy gotta be fair. He said you wouldn't be caught,
- 19:14Speaker 1: then you better believe that, brother, And I'll tell you
- 19:17Speaker 1: anywhere you want to know, my car drives itself. Oh
- 19:19Speaker 1: my god, I'm not going to be on the same
- 19:21Speaker 1: side as the road as you. I'll take you up
- 19:23Speaker 1: and take you where you want, but I'm not driving
- 19:25Speaker 1: a that thing. Okay. Now a question for Scott, when
- 19:28Speaker 1: will you bre breack Serene Sundays? Eli, At least you
- 19:32Speaker 1: know the man is going out there and watching my
- 19:34Speaker 1: YouTube channel. Kudos ya, Joshua. I don't know if there's
- 19:37Speaker 1: any day that's ever a serene with me anymore, but
- 19:40Speaker 1: but I know I'll let you know. And of course
- 19:41Speaker 1: you're a subscriber, so you'll know anyhow. Elon and Tesla
- 19:44Speaker 1: will change the world. Yeah, yeah, Elon, Musk and Tesla. Okay,
- 19:48Speaker 1: but I'm glad that you guys made it on here
- 19:50Speaker 1: to defend that whatever you want to call it, I
- 19:53Speaker 1: won't be caught dead in a minivan. While nobody's asking
- 19:56Speaker 1: to be caught dead. I would rather think that you
- 19:57Speaker 1: should be caught alive in a minivan, not dead, So
- 20:00Speaker 1: don't worry about it. So with that said, but I'll
- 20:03Speaker 1: tell you what, I'm gonna be caught a lot when
- 20:04Speaker 1: Candy gives us a station break, right, candy.
- 20:07Speaker 5: That's right. Yes.
- 20:08Speaker 1: So.

- 21:50Speaker 1: to be caught dead in the Men event. I hope
- 21:52Speaker 1: you definitely aren't caught dead. You're alive because you got
- 21:54Speaker 1: a beautiful white and a good looking kid. So that's okay.
- 21:57Speaker 1: Well I didn't know Scott wrote a book. That's okay.
- 21:59Speaker 1: You certainly you know, but I'll give you an LOL
- 22:02Speaker 1: with what a left I have on my voice. Rob
- 22:04Speaker 1: right there too. Yeah, Rob Peterson's going to be doing
- 22:07Speaker 1: a lot of great things for us, not only as
- 22:09Speaker 1: a writer, but as our hockey commentator. This guy, he'll
- 22:12Speaker 1: be hearing a lot more about him as time goes on.
- 22:15Speaker 1: All right, we're going to stay in our industry for
- 22:16Speaker 1: a moment. Tom Brennanman, who was exiled for broadcasting for
- 22:21Speaker 1: nearly four years after uttering a homophobic slur on a
- 22:25Speaker 1: hot microphone during a baseball broadcast, has been hired as
- 22:28Speaker 1: a lead voice for a nationally televised college football games
- 22:31Speaker 1: on the CW. So you know what, George, You know,
- 22:35Speaker 1: we've both obviously been in the industry and Tom Brennman
- 22:38Speaker 1: deserved another chance to get back in the industry. You
- 22:40Speaker 1: think he's learned his lesson, Well I do.
- 22:44Speaker 4: I'm not one that says over and out, one done,
- 22:47Speaker 4: year out of here. We've seen too much of that
- 22:49Speaker 4: during our career, Scott. There's a long list of people,
- 22:53Speaker 4: as you know, including including Jimmy the Greek Snyder. But Brenniman,
- 22:59Speaker 4: you know, he's been out for a while. I mean,
- 23:01Speaker 4: he's a very hard working sports broadcaster, has done a
- 23:05Speaker 4: hell of a good job in Cincinnati, where he spent
- 23:07Speaker 4: most of his years, and the fact that college football
- 23:11Speaker 4: is well, let's face it, every game is on television now,
- 23:15Speaker 4: which never was the case. So I mean, they need
- 23:17Speaker 4: good broadcasters, they need good play by play men like Tom.
- 23:21Speaker 4: But to answer your question, yeah, I think he deserves
- 23:23Speaker 4: another chance. He apologized for what happened. I'm sure he
- 23:26Speaker 4: had to go through you know, training and uh, you know,
- 23:31Speaker 4: a crash course on some of those items like that
- 23:33Speaker 4: he that he couldn't you know, let's just say he
- 23:37Speaker 4: must have got training and he must have got a
- 23:40Speaker 4: little bit of education on what he should and shouldn't stay.
- 23:44Speaker 1: But they call it sensitivity training.
- 23:47Speaker 5: Sensitively, that's the word I was looking for.
- 23:49Speaker 4: Yeah, so, yeah, I'm I'm for him to do it,
- 23:51Speaker 4: but boy, he's he's got to be more careful next time.
- 23:54Speaker 5: Even if you have those kind of views, you just
- 23:56Speaker 5: can't say stuff like that.
- 23:58Speaker 1: And Josh, so George, just answer question. All I can
- 24:01Speaker 1: tell you is it was a HOMOPHOLVICKX learn. I won't
- 24:03Speaker 1: go to any more detail than that. Okay, Joe, you're
- 24:05Speaker 1: in the industry just like I am. When you're talks
- 24:07Speaker 1: about time, you think he belongs back on the air.
- 24:10Speaker 2: Listen, we've all said stupid things, right, do we mean them?
- 24:14Speaker 2: That's a bigger question. I don't know Tom personally. I'm
- 24:18Speaker 2: going to assume the fact that he survived so long
- 24:21Speaker 2: before doing something stupid that he didn't mean it.
- 24:26Speaker 3: Do you serve a second chance of life? For sure?
- 24:29Speaker 2: You know you've gotta be careful. But we've all said
- 24:32Speaker 2: stupid things. I mean, you know, you look at that people.
- 24:35Speaker 2: We all make mistakes. It's not about the mistake. It's
- 24:38Speaker 2: what you do after your mistake that proves you're worth
- 24:40Speaker 2: as a person, you know, and it as a professional.
- 24:44Speaker 2: I'm shocked that he would make that mistake. But at
- 24:48Speaker 2: the same time, it can happen to anybody. You know,
- 24:50Speaker 2: we talked before the show, what happens somebody hit live
- 24:53Speaker 2: by mistake? I would have said something stupid. You know,
- 24:57Speaker 2: it can happen to anyone any time. Because you know,
- 24:59Speaker 2: we're humans, We have emotions and sometimes we do stupid things.
- 25:03Speaker 2: That doesn't mean we feel a certain way. It doesn't
- 25:05Speaker 2: make it acceptable either. But you know there's here's a
- 25:08Speaker 2: fun line, Candy.
- 25:15Speaker 6: I'm probably gonna disagree with you, guys, because because as
- 25:22Speaker 6: a broadcaster on that kind of stage, you have to
- 25:29Speaker 6: keep yourself to a certain level. And I get it
- 25:31Speaker 6: was a hot mic, it was on, and he probably
- 25:34Speaker 6: thought it was off, but he's nonetheless he said something
- 25:38Speaker 6: that was derogatory to a group of people. Now, I'll
- 25:43Speaker 6: tell you, in most professions, there is something you can
- 25:49Speaker 6: do to get fired from whatever job you have. In
- 25:54Speaker 6: a as a broadcaster, this is probably one of the
- 25:57Speaker 6: only things that would really get you fired from a job.
- 26:03Speaker 6: We're all held accountable for our actions and what we say,
- 26:07Speaker 6: and in some instances that could get you fired. And
- 26:13Speaker 6: so do I think he deserves another shot? Maybe? But
- 26:19Speaker 6: I also know that there are a ton of other
- 26:21Speaker 6: people out in this world that want that kind of
- 26:24Speaker 6: a job. And my only thing is did he get
- 26:28Speaker 6: the job because of his previous experience or I don't know.
- 26:36Speaker 6: I'm torn because I really think that it's hard because
- 26:41Speaker 6: in a day and age where you see so much
- 26:44Speaker 6: of this, you see so many people saying things and
- 26:47Speaker 6: then getting fired, and we're at a heightened level of
- 26:54Speaker 6: how should I have put it? Of derogatory statements of
- 27:00Speaker 6: classifying people in a certain category and talking down to
- 27:04Speaker 6: them or anything like that. You just have to be
- 27:06Speaker 6: very careful, and especially when you are in that whether
- 27:11Speaker 6: it's a hot mic or not. There's no room for
- 27:14Speaker 6: it in a profession on that professional level, if you
- 27:18Speaker 6: ask my opinion.
- 27:19Speaker 1: Okay, here's the thing. I have met Tom Brenneman one time,
- 27:23Speaker 1: actually at fort Field. We spent a lot of time talking.
- 27:25Speaker 1: Seems like a nice guy. I don't know if you again,
- 27:28Speaker 1: hot Mike said something you just you can't have and
- 27:30Speaker 1: he should have been aware that that thing was on.
- 27:32Speaker 1: That's a thing that we all have to be aware of.
- 27:34Speaker 1: And we're live. You got to know when you're live, otherwise,
- 27:37Speaker 1: you know, always going to pick up what now. A
- 27:40Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago, I went out there and interviewed
- 27:42Speaker 1: the guy by the name of Fred Clare. Okay, And
- 27:45Speaker 1: you want to talk about the one thing that gets
- 27:47Speaker 1: you off the air beside the hot mic, how about
- 27:49Speaker 1: racist comments? Okay? Al campani is okay, ABC New Night
- 27:55Speaker 1: News Nightline. You know, talk about managers and general managers
- 27:59Speaker 1: not being able to be able to hold those positions. Okay.
- 28:04Speaker 1: So when you think about it, racist gets you into trouble,
- 28:06Speaker 1: and what he did get you into trouble. Let's not
- 28:09Speaker 1: lose the fact that one of the greatest broadcasters ever
- 28:12Speaker 1: had a chance to meet him a few times with
- 28:13Speaker 1: Marty Brenneman, his dad. I think I have Marty's numbers somewhere,
- 28:18Speaker 1: so you know, you know, I can only imagine how
- 28:21Speaker 1: Marty felt when it happened. But he understands his son
- 28:24Speaker 1: made a mistake. We all make a mistake, because he
- 28:26Speaker 1: deserves a second Chand now there's a comment in here
- 28:29Speaker 1: that might actually Joshuador actually made it that nobody watches CW.
- 28:33Speaker 5: Anyways.
- 28:34Speaker 1: Up until this I never even heard of CW, but
- 28:37Speaker 1: I am starting to hear more and more about it.
- 28:38Speaker 1: I think they're gonna be doing more college football anyways.
- 28:41Speaker 1: But I don't want to get into let's sew, but
- 28:44Speaker 1: you would think that if CW gave another chance, he's
- 28:46Speaker 1: probably going to be under a very big microscope. Knowing
- 28:50Speaker 1: that you know what happened before you got his second chance,
- 28:53Speaker 1: you better watch what you're doing this time. And I
- 28:55Speaker 1: think his leash is going to be a lot shorter.
- 28:57Speaker 1: And you hope and pray that all that training that
- 28:59Speaker 1: he ended up getting did work. But well, you know,
- 29:01Speaker 1: when I tied to Fred Claire about l Campanis, oh
- 29:05Speaker 1: my gosh, you talk about career. I hate to use
- 29:09Speaker 1: them with suicide, but I will for the career sewericide
- 29:12Speaker 1: that was with el campaign and he worked for the
- 29:15Speaker 1: Dodgers over forty years. It's still got fired because of
- 29:19Speaker 1: racial comments. So Tom, I hope you learned your lesson.
- 29:22Speaker 1: He's actually a connection of mine on LinkedIn. Try to
- 29:24Speaker 1: get him on the show, but never got a response back.
- 29:26Speaker 1: But we'll see. You know, he's going to be on
- 29:29Speaker 1: CW and he is a good football announcer. And I
- 29:32Speaker 1: don't know what else Coow is gonna do, but he'll
- 29:35Speaker 1: be under a lot of scrutiny as well. We're gonna
- 29:37Speaker 1: take this movement in a different direction. Okay, Well, Brian Norway, George,
- 29:42Speaker 1: I don't know who that is, but it's a friend
- 29:45Speaker 1: of mine, yep, Okay Stewart Times, Mike Orny and Belli.
- 29:50Speaker 1: She used to say, whatever, Okay, that means nothing to me,
- 29:53Speaker 1: all right, So we'll go into a little bit more
- 29:55Speaker 1: of a softer stories if we come out firing on
- 29:58Speaker 1: this one. There's and she said, yes, a Chinese bad
- 30:02Speaker 1: minton player got engaged after winning Golden mixed doubles at
- 30:06Speaker 1: the Olympics. My good Chinese band minton. We can add
- 30:10Speaker 1: to corn hole paint pong, and we can even add
- 30:15Speaker 1: to a hot dog eating contest. But you know what,
- 30:17Speaker 1: I'm glad that they said yes and one gold. I
- 30:20Speaker 1: can't imagine what the jewelry be like it was gold,
- 30:23Speaker 1: but at least they have a medal somewhere, So Candy,
- 30:26Speaker 1: let's take the old sensitive size. Isn't that nice that
- 30:29Speaker 1: Chinese badminton people got to say yes?
- 30:34Speaker 6: I think it's awesome. I think she was on a
- 30:37Speaker 6: big stage and for for her fiance now to have
- 30:42Speaker 6: popped the question, and it makes a really great story,
- 30:46Speaker 6: like not only did she win gold, she also you know,
- 30:50Speaker 6: won obviously his heart and she said yes, she's going
- 30:52Speaker 6: to spend the rest of her life with him.
- 30:54Speaker 1: Awesome makes doubles all. What a beautiful thing. What about you, Georgie, Georgie.
- 31:00Speaker 5: Well, yeah, I mean they're incredible athletes.
- 31:03Speaker 4: I mean, I know I don't really follow that that
- 31:06Speaker 4: sport very much, but man, oh man, badminton was always.
- 31:09Speaker 5: Fun when I was a kid.
- 31:11Speaker 4: And the Chinese and you mentioned the other one too,
- 31:14Speaker 4: the ping pong, Oh my goodness, they're so.
- 31:15Speaker 5: Good at that too. But uh, it's kind of a
- 31:18Speaker 5: cool story.
- 31:19Speaker 4: I mean, you know, sentimental romantic and uh and the
- 31:22Speaker 4: fact that the question was popped, and it does make
- 31:25Speaker 4: for a very interesting story. I saw some feature or
- 31:29Speaker 4: something I guess at the Olympics. There were other you know,
- 31:33Speaker 4: other athletes during the games too that had proposed for at.
- 31:37Speaker 1: All stay on point so I can rip you again. Seriously,
- 31:41Speaker 1: this is the hammering of the night. Yeah, Corn, you're
- 31:44Speaker 1: making this a regular situation. This guy stays on point.
- 31:48Speaker 1: Get me a break, Okay, high Point University. We're talking
- 31:53Speaker 1: low Point University because I can't find the way to
- 31:56Speaker 1: dviate from what I'm saying. Again, Just George up slack,
- 31:59Speaker 1: no over there, I smack them boom, No, I don't
- 32:03Speaker 1: want to hear about all this business. No, yes, stay
- 32:06Speaker 1: with come on, Iicorn. This is a Chinese batminton. Get
- 32:10Speaker 1: these people they're do on the big state sick man.
- 32:13Speaker 5: Really, Okay, what are.
- 32:15Speaker 1: You ever gonna learn when I'm Yeah, I know, all right,
- 32:19Speaker 1: Georgy two weeks time out. I don't know how much
- 32:21Speaker 1: time out he may need new hearing when I get
- 32:24Speaker 1: through with them. Hey, listen, how many people on his
- 32:27Speaker 1: panel can go out there and play pint pong? You
- 32:30Speaker 1: know why? I'll tell you what. I have a hot
- 32:32Speaker 1: mic now, and I'm gonna say it and interrupt you. Okay.
- 32:35Speaker 1: Number one, the Chinese people are so much smaller than
- 32:37Speaker 1: all of us. They can get around the paintball table
- 32:40Speaker 1: quicker and smack that ball around anyways. These people are small, man.
- 32:45Speaker 1: They're not Mickey Rooney, but they're small. They can get
- 32:48Speaker 1: around as what they can do. That's why they're so
- 32:50Speaker 1: good at ping pong. So don't give me this business.
- 32:53Speaker 1: We're talking about Chinese batminton. We're not talking about Swedish
- 32:57Speaker 1: badminton or whatever you or Canadian darling. We're talking about
- 33:02Speaker 1: Chinese badminton. Stay on points, set them head.
- 33:08Speaker 4: Oh boy, yeah yeah they are again, Sarah. I'll have
- 33:19Speaker 4: a little broccoli Joshua, but I'm not eating the whole bag,
- 33:22Speaker 4: no way.
- 33:23Speaker 1: The only thing he's eating right now is crow. Taste good, young,
- 33:28Speaker 1: have crow before you ever. Have you ever had a
- 33:31Speaker 1: gro cheese sandwich out of a microwave? They lasted four
- 33:34Speaker 1: minutes where I could have drew had a triple pane window.
- 33:37Speaker 1: I'm made one of those the USF and I could
- 33:39Speaker 1: have taken that. I could have taken that grill cheese
- 33:42Speaker 1: sandwich and banging over your head, so you learn what
- 33:44Speaker 1: tiny batmans about. Seriously. Okay, Okay, he done, Joe. I
- 33:51Speaker 1: think he's had enough for Bobus until the next topic.
- 33:56Speaker 3: Really simple.
- 33:56Speaker 2: Good for them, you know if they're if you're in
- 33:59Speaker 2: love and your partner asked you to marry them and
- 34:02Speaker 2: you're happy and you say yes, great story as far
- 34:05Speaker 2: as you know. The Chinese badminton, I think that's just
- 34:09Speaker 2: a throw into the whole thing, and it's a great
- 34:11Speaker 2: story for both of them because you know, it was
- 34:14Speaker 2: at the time where she happened to be at the
- 34:16Speaker 2: top of her uh sport. I don't know how it's
- 34:19Speaker 2: a sport, but then again, breakdance, that was a sport,
- 34:22Speaker 2: so go figure.
- 34:25Speaker 1: Well, I said my piece. That's good enough. All right,
- 34:28Speaker 1: Now we're going to go to another sport that Candy
- 34:30Speaker 1: likes the best. Andy Murray to retired from tennis after
- 34:33Speaker 1: the Paris Olympics. Well, Andy Murray's had an excellent career, right, Candy.
- 34:37Speaker 6: Yes, he has, he has, he's I mean he's thirty
- 34:42Speaker 6: seven years old.
- 34:45Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 34:47Speaker 6: He was ranked number one in singles for forty one
- 34:50Speaker 6: weeks and finished at the year end number one. In
- 34:53Speaker 6: twenty sixteen, He's won three Grand Slam singles titles, two
- 34:58Speaker 6: at Wimpledon, won at the US Open, and has reached
- 35:01Speaker 6: eleven major finals. He was ranked in the top ten
- 35:04Speaker 6: for all but one month from July two thousand and
- 35:07Speaker 6: eight through October twenty seventeen, and he was in the
- 35:13Speaker 6: top four in eight of the nine years year end rankings.
- 35:18Speaker 6: During that time, he's won forty six ATP Tour singles titles,
- 35:23Speaker 6: including fourteen Master thousand events and two gold medals at
- 35:27Speaker 6: the Summer Olympics. So good for him, great career. You know,
- 35:32Speaker 6: I think we've seen a couple of men, and let's
- 35:37Speaker 6: face it, during that time he was he was competing
- 35:42Speaker 6: with some of the best. Like there have been some
- 35:45Speaker 6: a few men that have kind of dominated I would
- 35:50Speaker 6: say the men's tour for quite a while. I mean,
- 35:53Speaker 6: Rafi Nadal was one, Sampras was one, Roger Federer was one.
- 36:01Speaker 6: Novak I can never say his last name, Dijo Viktor Volkovich.
- 36:09Speaker 6: There we go. That sounds pretty good there, But I mean,
- 36:12Speaker 6: so there's been a few that have really molded the
- 36:16Speaker 6: top in tennis and to stay there that long, I
- 36:20Speaker 6: mean that just to him, kudos to him in.
- 36:24Speaker 1: His career, and he has had a good career. So
- 36:27Speaker 1: you retire, you might as well do it at the
- 36:29Speaker 1: Paris Olympics. All right. Now, I have a new nickname
- 36:31Speaker 1: for joy Tycorn and he actually works at Hogan's Heroes
- 36:34Speaker 1: called Sergeant Schultz. Okay, he doesn't know anything, but at
- 36:39Speaker 1: least Ikorn pretends he knows something. Anyone, Grandma, I don't
- 36:42Speaker 1: know anymore. But anyways, what are your thoughts, uh, Sergeant
- 36:46Speaker 1: Schultz or Sergeant Ihorn or whatever. Andy Murray.
- 36:50Speaker 5: Andy Murray's had a good career and you hit it
- 36:52Speaker 5: on the head, Uh, Candy that.
- 36:55Speaker 4: Yeah, he's been surrounded by other guys who were better
- 36:59Speaker 4: than much less, be honest.
- 37:01Speaker 5: But that's not taking anything away from him. I mean,
- 37:04Speaker 5: you know, every time you have a competitive sport. But Andy,
- 37:07Speaker 5: you know, he represented his homeland very well. They love
- 37:09Speaker 5: them in.
- 37:10Speaker 4: Britain, Great Britain, and you know, he was a hell
- 37:13Speaker 4: of a player, and it just, you know, it's just
- 37:16Speaker 4: it's just too bad he didn't get more of the
- 37:19Speaker 4: big Grand Slam event victories. But boil boy, he's got
- 37:22Speaker 4: nothing to be ashamed of because, like I said, the
- 37:24Speaker 4: country loves him.
- 37:25Speaker 5: The Tennis world.
- 37:26Speaker 4: Always liked him. He's always been very kind and professional.
- 37:30Speaker 4: He's not the kind of blows up. So I'm it's sad.
- 37:34Speaker 4: It's sad that a lot of these guys are leaving,
- 37:36Speaker 4: but it's a tough sport and I wish him well.
- 37:39Speaker 4: I'm sure Andy will do well whatever he gets into.
- 37:42Speaker 1: I'm going to tell you two of the favorite tennis
- 37:44Speaker 1: people that I've hung out with, and I'll never forget
- 37:47Speaker 1: be orn Borg here in South Floria. You know, I
- 37:49Speaker 1: met him down here in one of the classiest tennis
- 37:52Speaker 1: players I've ever met. And Andre Agassi. If you've very
- 37:55Speaker 1: few people know George, but you and I do that.
- 37:59Speaker 1: The event that opened up the Palace was a match
- 38:01Speaker 1: with Andrea agascy in it. Andrey is all the nicest
- 38:04Speaker 1: guys you can ever meet. So, you know, while I've
- 38:06Speaker 1: bet at times in critical some tennis players or some
- 38:09Speaker 1: tennis players, especially Arthur Ash as well, that are really
- 38:13Speaker 1: classy and done everything what's right about the sport as well.
- 38:17Speaker 1: So all right, Joe, what are you talks about Andy Murray?
- 38:21Speaker 2: His career kind of resembles Lebron James, you know, great career,
- 38:26Speaker 2: but it'll never be the best because there was always
- 38:28Speaker 2: somebody better aka Michael Jordan, you know, and in tennis
- 38:32Speaker 2: there was a group of people.
- 38:33Speaker 3: Doesn't take away from his career.
- 38:35Speaker 2: He had a phenomenal career, you know, he was always
- 38:38Speaker 2: one of the top people in the sport, but just
- 38:41Speaker 2: never got to that pinnacle where you say men's tennis
- 38:45Speaker 2: and you say, you know, Andy Murray. You would say
- 38:49Speaker 2: many other names before that. But that doesn't mean that
- 38:52Speaker 2: his career wasn't great. And you know, I wish him
- 38:54Speaker 2: all the luck of the world, and you know, to
- 38:57Speaker 2: have a career like that, I wouldn't be upset.
- 39:01Speaker 6: He's he's fourth all time leader in earnings and his
- 39:06Speaker 6: coach was a Von Lundell, who was a great in
- 39:09Speaker 6: his day too.
- 39:11Speaker 1: Oh yeah, Yayyvon won a lot of matches, that's for sure,
- 39:15Speaker 1: had a pretty good career. It makes you, it begs
- 39:18Speaker 1: you to think a little bit. And we talked about
- 39:19Speaker 1: this earlier. How much money could Von Lindall have won
- 39:23Speaker 1: in this day and age when we talked about Michael
- 39:25Speaker 1: Jordan versus Lebron And you know what, Joe, you bring
- 39:27Speaker 1: up a really interesting point there about earnings and what
- 39:30Speaker 1: they could have been done versusnality. Von Lindall had an
- 39:33Speaker 1: excellent career. I remember watching him win every match on
- 39:36Speaker 1: the planet. We're gonna go from tennis back to basketball. Okay,
- 39:41Speaker 1: we're gonna talk about Russell Westbrook became the first player
- 39:44Speaker 1: in NBA history to get traded five times after winning
- 39:47Speaker 1: an MVP. How is that even possible? You know. So
- 39:50Speaker 1: we're gonna start off with dal one this.
- 39:53Speaker 2: For some reason, their consensus of dislike towards Russell Westbrook
- 39:58Speaker 2: is off the charts. The guy plays hard. There's talk
- 40:04Speaker 2: how he just plays to fill a stat line and
- 40:06Speaker 2: he doesn't have a good outside shot. But you know,
- 40:10Speaker 2: and unfortunately this day and age, everything's the three pointer.
- 40:13Speaker 2: You know, if hits you to three pointer, you're not
- 40:15Speaker 2: not worth anything in the NBA right now, you know.
- 40:18Speaker 2: I like a guy like Westbrook. I want a guy
- 40:20Speaker 2: who plays hard, that's gonna, you know, go to the
- 40:23Speaker 2: rim and get rebounds, especially when there a guard. You
- 40:26Speaker 2: know what happens when he gets a rebound. It helps
- 40:28Speaker 2: your whole team out, you know. And just a personality thing,
- 40:33Speaker 2: A lot of guys just don't get along with him.
- 40:35Speaker 2: You know, He's the type of guy I would take
- 40:37Speaker 2: first on my team. If I'm building a team, I
- 40:39Speaker 2: want a guy like that because he's a leader and
- 40:41Speaker 2: a lot of guys kid deal with that.
- 40:45Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, you know. The thing is is this, Joe,
- 40:50Speaker 1: I am so with you on this. Russell Westbrook to me,
- 40:53Speaker 1: could play in any era anyway. I love the way
- 40:56Speaker 1: he plays hard. He gets a bad lap, he really
- 40:59Speaker 1: really does. I mean, he plays already, doesn't miss games.
- 41:02Speaker 1: I've never seen a person in this era of the
- 41:05Speaker 1: NBA play with as much heart as Russell Westbrook. Why
- 41:08Speaker 1: people get on his gates? To me, I think his
- 41:11Speaker 1: domer file would say, shame, shame, shame. It's not necessary.
- 41:15Speaker 1: I love Russell westblin get off and back, okay, George.
- 41:20Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean it is unusual the guy would move
- 41:23Speaker 4: around that often. Uh, but I agree. I mean I
- 41:26Speaker 4: think he's a good ballplayer. He doesn't do everything perfectly.
- 41:30Speaker 4: None of us do, none of the players do. But man,
- 41:33Speaker 4: oh man, you know it's it's it's it is interesting,
- 41:36Speaker 4: you know when a guy has to move that that
- 41:39Speaker 4: much around, But you know it's he gets the respect
- 41:43Speaker 4: on the court from those players and those coaches.
- 41:46Speaker 5: Trust me.
- 41:46Speaker 4: Even though there could be reasons why he moved around
- 41:49Speaker 4: to different teams, but he does get the respect. I've
- 41:52Speaker 4: always admired his work, ethic and his execution. And like
- 41:57Speaker 4: I said, nobody's perfect in the NBA. Shooter is going
- 42:00Speaker 4: to be perfect. But Russell Westbrook I still think he
- 42:03Speaker 4: can hang his head high. And he's had a solid career.
- 42:07Speaker 1: Well, he's been traded to Denver. Okay, Denver wanted the guy.
- 42:11Speaker 1: Nicolea Jogic wants the guy. I hope if anything if
- 42:15Speaker 1: to go the way it should go, if there's any
- 42:18Speaker 1: such thing as a storybook ending, I hope Russell Westbrook
- 42:21Speaker 1: gets his championship ring with Denver. And I hope at
- 42:26Speaker 1: one point or another down the road, Oklahoma City retires
- 42:30Speaker 1: his number.
- 42:32Speaker 5: Guys.
- 42:33Speaker 1: Okay, I'll ye, I'll turn over to Candy.
- 42:36Speaker 6: Russell. Russell Westbrook played for Oklahoma City Thunder from twentyd
- 42:42Speaker 6: and eight to twenty nineteen. Twenty nineteen to twenty twenty,
- 42:46Speaker 6: played with the Houston Rockets twenty twenty to twenty one,
- 42:49Speaker 6: Washington Wizards twenty one to twenty three, the Los Angeles
- 42:52Speaker 6: Lakers twenty three to twenty four, the Los Angeles Clippers,
- 42:56Speaker 6: and now twenty twenty four the Denver Nuggets. Out of
- 43:01Speaker 6: all those teams, the only one that's really a historic
- 43:05Speaker 6: team is the Los Angeles Lakers. He was the NBA
- 43:09Speaker 6: Most Valuable Player in twenty seventeen. He is a nine
- 43:13Speaker 6: time NBA All Star. What I will say is he
- 43:19Speaker 6: has achieved so Westbrook is one of two players in
- 43:25Speaker 6: NBA history to average a triple double for the entire season.
- 43:31Speaker 6: He has achieved that feat four times and is the
- 43:34Speaker 6: all time NBA leader in career triple doubles. He's known
- 43:39Speaker 6: for his ability to score near the basket, his rebounding,
- 43:42Speaker 6: his durability, and his intensity as a competitor. Now, the
- 43:45Speaker 6: one thing I will say about the NBA, and as
- 43:50Speaker 6: someone I know has said called it the National Drama League,
- 43:57Speaker 6: that I think there are such personalities in that league
- 44:04Speaker 6: that I think because it's a quick, fast paced game
- 44:09Speaker 6: and it's a team sport, and that's what I think
- 44:12Speaker 6: a lot of these players forget there are five players
- 44:16Speaker 6: on your team on the court with you, and I
- 44:20Speaker 6: think some of the personalities don't always mesh. And I
- 44:25Speaker 6: think it's more evident in the NBA than it is
- 44:29Speaker 6: maybe in some of the other sports. And so maybe
- 44:34Speaker 6: partly that is why he's moved from team to team.
- 44:38Speaker 6: I think some of these players that are at the
- 44:43Speaker 6: upper echelon or like maybe even little lebrons, so that
- 44:48Speaker 6: they may be hard to play with because they have
- 44:51Speaker 6: they think they're and I hate to say this better
- 44:54Speaker 6: than others, but there are some that do. And I
- 44:56Speaker 6: think they don't always share the ball. They don't always
- 45:00Speaker 6: have the same work ethic. And so do I think
- 45:04Speaker 6: he's gotten a bad rep Yeah, I do. I think
- 45:06Speaker 6: he's a tough competitor. And like I said, the NBA
- 45:13Speaker 6: has a lot of personalities. Let's put it to you
- 45:16Speaker 6: that way, and it's it's more how should I put it,
- 45:23Speaker 6: it's more emphasized because it's there's only five on the field.
- 45:27Speaker 6: You can have somebody that has a big personality on like,
- 45:32Speaker 6: let's face it, in Antonio Brown. There's been some NFL
- 45:36Speaker 6: players that have but it's not up to them. They're
- 45:40Speaker 6: throwing the ball. He's not throwing the ball Westbrook. They're
- 45:44Speaker 6: always passing and they have to gel as a team
- 45:48Speaker 6: and their personalities have to mesh.
- 45:52Speaker 1: The only thing, the only thing I'll say about the NBA,
- 45:54Speaker 1: it looks like a game of horse is all in
- 45:56Speaker 1: is period. All they do is shoot from different spots.
- 45:59Speaker 1: We're worth team. I don't know. All right, Well, you
- 46:03Speaker 1: know what, I've got a segment strictly for Joe Ellis. Okay, George,
- 46:06Speaker 1: did you have a chance to tonament on this already,
- 46:09Speaker 1: this one yet?
- 46:11Speaker 5: Yes? I did? Thank you?
- 46:12Speaker 1: What about you, Joe?
- 46:14Speaker 3: Yeah, yep?
- 46:14Speaker 1: Okay, okay, well then good, I've got a solo segment
- 46:18Speaker 1: for Joe. Okay. Chicago sports struggles. The Bears are seven
- 46:22Speaker 1: and ten last place, the Bulls thirty nine and forty
- 46:28Speaker 1: three and they were in fourth place, black Hawks twenty three,
- 46:32Speaker 1: fifty three and six last, and then of course they
- 46:36Speaker 1: have the Cove sixty two and sixty four going into
- 46:38Speaker 1: tonight's game, and we know the White Dog thirty one
- 46:41Speaker 1: in ninety seven. Listen, every city has its cycle. So
- 46:44Speaker 1: how would you describe what's going on in Chicago Joe?
- 46:48Speaker 3: Right now?
- 46:48Speaker 2: I think it's kind of exciting because the Blackhawks had
- 46:52Speaker 2: two phenomenal first round picks the last two years. Okay,
- 46:57Speaker 2: you know, the Bulls I think are on an upswing.
- 47:00Speaker 2: They're getting better. The Cubs have a great young core.
- 47:05Speaker 2: The Bears got Caleb Williams and their defense looks phenomenal.
- 47:10Speaker 2: And then you have the White Sox, who were a
- 47:13Speaker 2: really good team a couple of years ago and have
- 47:15Speaker 2: falled off the face of the earth. They just cannot
- 47:18Speaker 2: play baseball anymore.
- 47:20Speaker 3: I don't know.
- 47:20Speaker 2: Maybe they think they're playing soccer cricket, but baseball they're not.
- 47:25Speaker 2: They won tonight, though, which is amazing. I mean, that's
- 47:27Speaker 2: thirty one I think for the year thirty two. You know,
- 47:29Speaker 2: they still got a shot to finish with the worst
- 47:32Speaker 2: record in history. But all the other teams there's there's hope,
- 47:37Speaker 2: and when you have hope, it makes it for interesting
- 47:39Speaker 2: an interesting time, you know. But the White Socks, I
- 47:42Speaker 2: just don't. I don't know what's going on with them.
- 47:43Speaker 2: They're the only team I don't see any hope for.
- 47:47Speaker 1: Sure enough. Grady Sizemore inter a manager, you know what
- 47:51Speaker 1: I thinking? Just if he wins enough, maybe he has
- 47:55Speaker 1: a chance to go on the new coaching staff. But
- 47:57Speaker 1: right now he got to thankless job over there. But
- 47:59Speaker 1: you know what, you're right, Caleb Williams could be interesting
- 48:01Speaker 1: to watch. You know. They finished seven to ten. It's
- 48:04Speaker 1: not like they really three games under. They were three
- 48:08Speaker 1: games They don't have five hundred anymore until they go
- 48:11Speaker 1: to eighteen. And then the Bulls, like you say, they're
- 48:13Speaker 1: only four off the five hundred mark. In the Blackhawks,
- 48:16Speaker 1: you know, they're drafting some quality players, so we'll see
- 48:20Speaker 1: what plays out. But again, since you're in that city,
- 48:23Speaker 1: I thought you had a much better polse on it.
- 48:24Speaker 1: And thank you very much to appreciate it. All right,
- 48:27Speaker 1: I just want to mention three other people before we
- 48:29Speaker 1: wrap up the show here. Unfortunately, the broadcasting world lost
- 48:34Speaker 1: a giant this week and Phil Donahue. How many people
- 48:38Speaker 1: who died at the age of eighty eight, how many
- 48:40Speaker 1: people in our day and age watched Phil Donahue and
- 48:43Speaker 1: didn't learn anything from him? And he talks about Phil
- 48:46Speaker 1: Donahue show, George or Candy.
- 48:49Speaker 4: Well, I think he was a trendsetter, He was a pioneer.
- 48:52Speaker 4: He engages, He engaged his audience perfectly. And I'll never
- 48:57Speaker 4: forget him running up to the stands, you know, running
- 49:00Speaker 4: up to the seats and you know, hold on, hold on,
- 49:02Speaker 4: you know, bring the microphone to the person. He wasn't
- 49:05Speaker 4: afraid to do that what they call audience participation. Oh
- 49:09Speaker 4: my god, he's the king of that. So yeah, Scott
- 49:11Speaker 4: I mean, you know he was, he was good. Mike
- 49:14Speaker 4: Douglas was another one, but Phil Donahue, and then look
- 49:19Speaker 4: at the sweetheart he married in Marlo Thomas. I mean,
- 49:22Speaker 4: so yeah, it's a big loss, though, You're right, he
- 49:25Speaker 4: was one of the one of the television legends.
- 49:29Speaker 1: Mike Douglas. Lucky to get reamed out for that one
- 49:32Speaker 1: because I didn't ask you about Mike Douglas. But you
- 49:34Speaker 1: know what, I'll give you a pass on this one,
- 49:37Speaker 1: because Mike Douglas was pretty good. Candy. Do you remember
- 49:39Speaker 1: Phil Donahue much?
- 49:41Speaker 6: I sure do. I mean, let's face it, he started.
- 49:44Speaker 6: It started out as the Phil Donahue Show, then they
- 49:47Speaker 6: shortened it to just The Donahue. He was the first
- 49:50Speaker 6: popular talk show host to feature a format that included
- 49:53Speaker 6: audience participation, like George said. The show had a twenty
- 49:57Speaker 6: nine year run on national television that began in Dayton, Ohio,
- 50:02Speaker 6: in nineteen sixty seven and ended in New York City
- 50:06Speaker 6: in nineteen ninety six. His shows often focused on issues
- 50:11Speaker 6: that divide liberals and conservatives in the United States, such
- 50:14Speaker 6: as abortion, consumer protections, civil rights, and war issues. He
- 50:20Speaker 6: had people on there that were divisive. He was not
- 50:22Speaker 6: afraid to talk about those kind of things. At one point,
- 50:26Speaker 6: he was often referred to as the most influential talk
- 50:29Speaker 6: show host and was referred to as the king of
- 50:32Speaker 6: daytime talk. If it weren't for Phil Donahue, there would
- 50:37Speaker 6: never have been an Oprah show. That's a quote from
- 50:40Speaker 6: Oprah herself. He is ranked number forty two on TV
- 50:46Speaker 6: Guide's fifty great Greatest TV Stars of All Time. So
- 50:51Speaker 6: rest in peace.
- 50:53Speaker 1: Joe.
- 50:55Speaker 2: Don't know much about him. I don't remember much about him,
- 50:57Speaker 2: didn't watch much of a show. I could just say
- 51:00Speaker 2: he's an icon in the talk show industry, daytime talk.
- 51:05Speaker 2: He revolutionized daytime talk. I don't let it watch enough
- 51:10Speaker 2: to speak on it, except to know that he was
- 51:12Speaker 2: one of the great ones.
- 51:14Speaker 1: That's fair enough.
- 51:15Speaker 6: Yeah, twenty Daytime Emmys, Wow.
- 51:18Speaker 1: Speaks a lot. Yeah, you know, I grew up on them,
- 51:21Speaker 1: you know, back in the day. In my book Lessons
- 51:23Speaker 1: on the Micro Home, I talk about a lot of
- 51:26Speaker 1: iconic ones. He didn't really make it nearly. Didn't understand
- 51:29Speaker 1: him enough. Well, I understood them enough. There's only so
- 51:32Speaker 1: many people who can put in the book, especially those
- 51:34Speaker 1: that gave you an input, And he didn't as much
- 51:37Speaker 1: with me as some of the other ones. But that
- 51:39Speaker 1: doesn't take away from the impact that this guy had
- 51:41Speaker 1: in terms of daytime TV recipees fell down to you,
- 51:45Speaker 1: all right. Another one in the sporting world, Nol Adams
- 51:49Speaker 1: of Golden State died at the age of eighty seven.
- 51:51Speaker 1: Spent sixty years with the Warriors as a coach and
- 51:54Speaker 1: a player. George, you know, you and I saw him
- 51:57Speaker 1: coach the Golden State Warriors, Rick Berry, and he's with
- 52:00Speaker 1: the organization a lot of some talks about adults, l adols.
- 52:05Speaker 4: Yeah, lifer when it comes to you know, college and
- 52:08Speaker 4: especially pro basketball. You know, he he might have not
- 52:12Speaker 4: had the best talent surrounding him sometimes, but he was
- 52:16Speaker 4: a very very good coach. You know, you and I
- 52:20Speaker 4: saw him, you know when he when he came into
- 52:22Speaker 4: Detroit and they had the Pistons, and you know, just
