Transcript
- 0:23Speaker 1: Good evening everybody, and welcome to another edition of Sports Exchange. Yes,
- 0:29Speaker 1: a different host tonight. Scott is a little under the weather. Actually,
- 0:34Speaker 1: what happened is he did a one on one interview
- 0:37Speaker 1: previously on No Limits and it went like an hour
- 0:39Speaker 1: and I don't know, twenty minutes almost and he's losing
- 0:43Speaker 1: his voice, believe it or not, so he's taking the
- 0:46Speaker 1: night off. Jb ellis a little under the weather. He
- 0:51Speaker 1: had some dental work done. So in steps me into
- 0:55Speaker 1: the host and Beensman and JD thank you for joining
- 0:59Speaker 1: us instead of baby JD.
- 1:02Speaker 2: Hey, well, in mind, it actually stands for just delightful,
- 1:05Speaker 2: and we're in for just the delightful.
- 1:07Speaker 3: Even this is there?
- 1:09Speaker 4: You go.
- 1:11Speaker 1: A nice, nice, nice Okay, we're gonna jump right on in.
- 1:19Speaker 1: So the title of the show, Daniel Jones in Pittsburgh.
- 1:25Speaker 1: Is that something you could see or not see? And
- 1:30Speaker 1: we're gonna start with you, JD, even though I know
- 1:34Speaker 1: Pensman is from there. Let's talk about it, little JD.
- 1:39Speaker 2: All right, Well, let's see if we can't row Pensman
- 1:42Speaker 2: up a little bit with this one. Man, Like, are
- 1:44Speaker 2: you kidding me right now? Could Pittsburgh really do this?
- 1:48Speaker 2: Their management's better than this. Right to think that they
- 1:51Speaker 2: could bring in Daniel Jones, who was overpaid as a
- 1:54Speaker 2: Giants quarterback, he got complacent.
- 1:57Speaker 3: I don't know that he was ever really.
- 2:00Speaker 2: Good enough to command that type money, and so for
- 2:04Speaker 2: them to talk about him to be the quarterback for
- 2:06Speaker 2: the Pittsburgh Steelers just seems ridiculous to me, because the
- 2:10Speaker 2: Pittsburgh Steelers already have their number one quarterback on the
- 2:14Speaker 2: team and Justin Fields he went foreign too as a
- 2:18Speaker 2: starter last year. Yes, he gave way to Russell Wilson there,
- 2:22Speaker 2: who I mean, Let's be honest, he didn't have mind
- 2:26Speaker 2: blowing statistics. They are coming down the stretch for the
- 2:29Speaker 2: Steelers one and done again in the playoffs. So I mean,
- 2:34Speaker 2: Justin Fields to me though, is the answer?
- 2:40Speaker 1: Hm? Really? Okay, Pensman, I'm gonna let you roll with
- 2:44Speaker 1: this one since that's your team, all right.
- 2:48Speaker 4: Daniel Jones is a good quarterback, Don't get me wrong,
- 2:52Speaker 4: But Daniel Jones is a starter. And yet Justin Fields
- 2:57Speaker 4: needs to be the starter for the Pittsburgh Steelers because
- 3:00Speaker 4: he knows the system already. Why would you bring in
- 3:03Speaker 4: a quarterback teach a brand new quarterback the system for
- 3:08Speaker 4: one year and then Will Howard's going to be in
- 3:11Speaker 4: the draft next year, and other quarterbacks are going to
- 3:15Speaker 4: be in the quarterback next year and get a quarterback
- 3:18Speaker 4: next year. So Justin can mentor him back. If you
- 3:20Speaker 4: think about Steelers are three years behind when Ben Roethlisberger
- 3:24Speaker 4: before he retired, he should have mentored the franchise quarterback.
- 3:28Speaker 4: They shouldn't even be in the situation. But because they
- 3:31Speaker 4: dragged their feet in the mud, that's what's going on.
- 3:34Speaker 4: So that is what is going on with that. Daniel Jones,
- 3:38Speaker 4: stay in Minnesota. You're a back up there. JAJ McCarthy
- 3:41Speaker 4: is not one hundred percent you have playing time. That's
- 3:45Speaker 4: my teak.
- 3:47Speaker 2: Well, and to your point too, I think Sam Darnold
- 3:52Speaker 2: would be more likely than Daniel Jones to go to
- 3:56Speaker 2: the Steelers. He's the one that's going to be a
- 3:58Speaker 2: free agent, right, I mean, we all know JJ McCarthy
- 4:01Speaker 2: is going to be the Vikings quarterback. They have Daniel
- 4:04Speaker 2: Jones sitting there, so they're one two can be solidified.
- 4:06Speaker 2: Sam Donald can walk. Could Sam Donald be the more
- 4:10Speaker 2: likely Pittsburgh quarterback?
- 4:12Speaker 4: That's you're in the same situation as I am, that
- 4:15Speaker 4: they'll teach Sam Donald the whole system, and the teaching
- 4:18Speaker 4: them the whole thing for one year. There's no point
- 4:20Speaker 4: of teaching a new quarterback a new system. Every team
- 4:24Speaker 4: has a system.
- 4:26Speaker 3: So right, well, and then oh yeah, one other point.
- 4:28Speaker 2: I wanted to make it to what you said, Pensman,
- 4:30Speaker 2: and I'll let you guys take back over. But you
- 4:33Speaker 2: talked about them drafting a quarterback. That's always the issue though,
- 4:37Speaker 2: when you have a coach Mike Tomlin who's never finished
- 4:40Speaker 2: below five hundred before, you're never drafting in the position
- 4:46Speaker 2: to get one of the top tier quarterbacks. Roethlisberger, if
- 4:50Speaker 2: if I remember correctly, was the number twenty four pick
- 4:53Speaker 2: eleventh eleventh, well he yeah, because it was Eli and
- 4:58Speaker 2: Philip Rivers in that same draft, and we all know
- 5:00Speaker 2: they swapped spots.
- 5:02Speaker 3: But Ben Roight, yeah, I thought he was.
- 5:04Speaker 2: A lower draft So you can find a quarterback at
- 5:06Speaker 2: eleven Ah J. McCarthy, who we've talked about here already.
- 5:10Speaker 2: And so though that's the issue though with the Steelers
- 5:13Speaker 2: is they haven't been able to find that guy in
- 5:15Speaker 2: the middle of the draft, and they're never really high
- 5:18Speaker 2: enough to get one of the top tier quarterbacks.
- 5:21Speaker 4: So what you're saying, is Justin Fields can take this
- 5:23Speaker 4: team to the championship in twenty thirty five? What he's
- 5:27Speaker 4: thirty five forty years old, so you think he's the
- 5:30Speaker 4: next franchise quarterback instead of drafting a new quarterback and
- 5:33Speaker 4: let him take the rings twenty thirty five and twenty forty.
- 5:37Speaker 3: No, I wouldn't. No, I wasn't saying sign Justin Fields
- 5:39Speaker 3: for that long. No care about that.
- 5:43Speaker 2: Okay, I'm saying he could if he and Tomlin maybe
- 5:46Speaker 2: were to get on the same page and they can
- 5:47Speaker 2: have a prolific offense to go with.
- 5:49Speaker 3: What we know is what is it? The steel curtain?
- 5:53Speaker 2: Right? The Pittsburgh Steelers defense is always good. Their problem though, lately,
- 5:58Speaker 2: is they've lacked. I mean, think about the do they
- 6:00Speaker 2: had Antonio Brown the running back? I forget his name,
- 6:05Speaker 2: Lady on Bell, Yes, there you go, Ben Roethlisberger, Hines Ward,
- 6:09Speaker 2: these dudes. They who's on offense now? George Pickens wants
- 6:14Speaker 2: to be a UFC fighter for Christ's sakes. With the
- 6:18Speaker 2: right quarterback, you can potentially the Steelers can't be sent
- 6:23Speaker 2: for the next three to four years. I think with
- 6:25Speaker 2: Justin Fields. If I'm being honest with you, I think
- 6:28Speaker 2: you got to get rid of Pickens. I think he's
- 6:29Speaker 2: a cancer.
- 6:30Speaker 3: In the locker room.
- 6:31Speaker 2: I think that would be priority number one. Trade him
- 6:34Speaker 2: on draft day, use him to get some picks or something.
- 6:37Speaker 4: Potentially, that's what they're talking about doing.
- 6:41Speaker 2: George Pickens, though. I mean to me, he's a cancer
- 6:43Speaker 2: in the locker room. And Tomlin has proved he can't
- 6:45Speaker 2: even control the dude.
- 6:46Speaker 4: So they're talking about drafting that uh wide receiver from
- 6:49Speaker 4: Ohio State at BUKA or whatever. Right, Yeah, that's what
- 6:53Speaker 4: they're talking about drafted. But I'm not totally sure they
- 6:55Speaker 4: at the combine they looked at a couple of running
- 6:58Speaker 4: backs too, Yeah, because Harris might be going to Chargers.
- 7:02Speaker 2: Well, and like I was saying, though, if you're drafting
- 7:05Speaker 2: as the Pittsburgh Steelers, that's what you end up with
- 7:08Speaker 2: when you go nine and eight, ten and seven and
- 7:11Speaker 2: a first round loss in the playoffs, you end up
- 7:14Speaker 2: drafting between fifteen and eighteen, where the best player available
- 7:19Speaker 2: is a wide receiver.
- 7:20Speaker 4: I got you, so I follow you.
- 7:24Speaker 1: If you because if you're looking for a number one quarterback,
- 7:27Speaker 1: you've got to be way up higher, or you're looking
- 7:30Speaker 1: for a backup that you're going to develop into not.
- 7:37Speaker 4: Just Steelers are a PA team, Mark, I'm already in
- 7:44Speaker 4: the dark side. If that's what you want to call it,
- 7:46Speaker 4: the Pittsburgh Steelers third in Pittsburgh. It's Pittsburgh is a
- 7:49Speaker 4: Pennsylvania team. Mark.
- 7:53Speaker 2: Mark is probably referencing Philly cheesesteaks. That's what he That's
- 7:58Speaker 2: what he had for his Super Bowl party.
- 8:00Speaker 3: By the way, Yeah, yeah, yeah, he's an Eagle fan.
- 8:03Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, he forgets there's another team besides Philly fits.
- 8:10Speaker 2: I mean, they're like four hours apart, so it's pretty
- 8:13Speaker 2: easy to forget they're in the same state.
- 8:14Speaker 5: Sometimes the real, the real okay, yeah, the real real
- 8:28Speaker 5: things got real real quick.
- 8:30Speaker 1: You did get real. Okay. So let's let's I want
- 8:34Speaker 1: to talk a little bit all Star games. We've seen
- 8:40Speaker 1: where a lot of them have declined, a lot of
- 8:44Speaker 1: the different for viewership as a whole. The NBA's viewership
- 8:50Speaker 1: has gone down, but they hosted their NBA All Star
- 8:57Speaker 1: Game on Sunday Night. Now, I would it went against
- 9:01Speaker 1: what Saturday Night Live's fiftieth reunion show or so, but
- 9:07Speaker 1: the viewership for this year's All Star Game was down
- 9:10Speaker 1: thirteen percent from last year, it was the second least
- 9:18Speaker 1: watched NBA All Star Game. It had a total viewership
- 9:23Speaker 1: of four point seven million across TBSTNT and True TV. Unbelievable.
- 9:33Speaker 1: And to give you an idea back in and I
- 9:36Speaker 1: know this is going back quite a ways, but back
- 9:40Speaker 1: in nineteen ninety three on NBC, the NBA All Star
- 9:46Speaker 1: Game had a viewership of twenty two point nine million. Okay,
- 9:53Speaker 1: twenty two point nine million to now four point seven million.
- 9:58Speaker 1: What a drop? What's changed? Pensman? Your thoughts?
- 10:04Speaker 4: They're putting too much better quality sports into that night.
- 10:12Speaker 4: Because what JD said? Can I take? Can I say
- 10:16Speaker 4: something about your show? JD take?
- 10:19Speaker 3: Go right ahead, Bud.
- 10:20Speaker 4: He said that it was a slam dunk contest. Whoever
- 10:24Speaker 4: was was n hedn'vened, He missed the dunk and he
- 10:28Speaker 4: dan and he got he got the points for it.
- 10:32Speaker 4: That's it. Nobody wants to see somebody do a slam
- 10:35Speaker 4: dunk contest. When they say the Duke's playing, or the
- 10:43Speaker 4: TELA day on DAYTOTA qualifyings on, or the dual races
- 10:46Speaker 4: or on. They want to watch the dual races and
- 10:48Speaker 4: say they flipped back and forth and they don't want
- 10:49Speaker 4: to see a guy miss a dunk, be like, Okay,
- 10:52Speaker 4: this is lame. They actually in the All Star Game
- 10:55Speaker 4: they put up two hundred and three hundred points a game.
- 10:58Speaker 4: It's like two hundred and seventy to two one hundred
- 11:00Speaker 4: and forty points a game. That's what the final score
- 11:04Speaker 4: is just saying, and then you gotta have it more.
- 11:06Speaker 4: That's more competition. The All Star Game for the hockey team,
- 11:11Speaker 4: they didn't have a dish here because of four nations,
- 11:13Speaker 4: but they had it was competitive. They won't They just
- 11:16Speaker 4: have the regular basketball game and whoever wins has home
- 11:21Speaker 4: field advantage like baseball that if they have that, then
- 11:23Speaker 4: the All Star Game might be better.
- 11:27Speaker 1: Okay, okay, JD your thoughts.
- 11:32Speaker 2: Well, Miss Candy, if I could let me let me
- 11:36Speaker 2: see if I can articulate this the best way I
- 11:40Speaker 2: possibly can. There was a lot of questions in there
- 11:43Speaker 2: that you kind of asked, so I might ask for
- 11:45Speaker 2: a couple of refreshers on them just to kind of
- 11:47Speaker 2: lead it all together. But first and foremost, yeah, pensmen.
- 11:52Speaker 2: We did talk about the All Star Games, the NBA
- 11:55Speaker 2: dunk contests, and stuff at length on episode fifty of
- 11:58Speaker 2: Southern Fried Sports. By the way, make sure y'all hit
- 12:01Speaker 2: like and subscribe on South Florida Tribune. It's my absolute
- 12:06Speaker 2: pleasure to be here this evening.
- 12:08Speaker 1: Thank you.
- 12:09Speaker 2: And if I could, yeah, I would love so. My
- 12:11Speaker 2: fiftieth episode, the number five and the number zero. It
- 12:14Speaker 2: came up numerous times. It was my kid's fifth birthday
- 12:18Speaker 2: party this weekend, so there's the five. But then we
- 12:21Speaker 2: had the NBA Dunk Contest and the top score that
- 12:24Speaker 2: you could get in that contest was fifty, all right,
- 12:29Speaker 2: And so I'm sitting here watching it.
- 12:32Speaker 3: Not a huge fan.
- 12:33Speaker 2: When the playoffs come around, I'll watch the playoffs. I'm
- 12:36Speaker 2: a huge lebron fan, always have been, always will be.
- 12:39Speaker 3: Do I like the guy? No? Is he my favorite player? Yes,
- 12:44Speaker 3: But that's a whole other story.
- 12:45Speaker 4: Try to figure that out, right.
- 12:47Speaker 2: I Mean, it's like he was two years ahead of
- 12:50Speaker 2: me in high school. So I was watching him ball,
- 12:54Speaker 2: you know, a little old dude down here in South
- 12:55Speaker 2: Carolina watching this kid ball though in Ohio, and it
- 13:00Speaker 2: was all over ESPN, and that, of course, is all
- 13:03Speaker 2: we watch. Back in the day two thousand and three,
- 13:05Speaker 2: two thousand and four, TV stayed on that four letter
- 13:08Speaker 2: network all the time, and so lebron turned out to
- 13:11Speaker 2: be my favorite player. But what he pulled in the
- 13:15Speaker 2: NBA All Star Game, robbing someone of not having the
- 13:18Speaker 2: opportunity to be there, was absolutely ridiculous.
- 13:22Speaker 3: And that's the things he why he is my favorite player.
- 13:26Speaker 3: But I don't like the dude, you know what I mean.
- 13:29Speaker 2: I like the player, I don't like the personality he whinds,
- 13:32Speaker 2: he cries too much. The whole Bronny thing. That's the
- 13:35Speaker 2: whole other story for a whole other day. But yeah,
- 13:39Speaker 2: so the whole NBA All Star Game, though the top
- 13:44Speaker 2: scorer you can get is fifty, these dudes were missing
- 13:48Speaker 2: all the dunks and then just making an easy dunk
- 13:51Speaker 2: at the end because you get five attempts for a minute,
- 13:56Speaker 2: and these nobody made a dunk except Jack mcclum.
- 14:01Speaker 3: Literally, And not only.
- 14:03Speaker 2: Did he make his dunks, he made the most ridiculous
- 14:07Speaker 2: ones you've ever seen in your life, candy like like
- 14:11Speaker 2: jumping over cars, the one where he jumped over someone
- 14:15Speaker 2: and the dude was on the ladder and he dunked
- 14:18Speaker 2: both basketballs. Meanwhile, nobody else can even make one, like
- 14:24Speaker 2: that's the main goal, get the ball in the hoop
- 14:26Speaker 2: on a dunk. It's the easiest shot in the world
- 14:28Speaker 2: to do, right. I mean some would argue, some would argue,
- 14:34Speaker 2: maybe it's a three pointer.
- 14:35Speaker 4: Now if you have the airtime, Yeah, If he don't,
- 14:38Speaker 4: then you're pretty much done.
- 14:40Speaker 2: Oh well, I'm not saying I could dunk. I know,
- 14:44Speaker 2: I'm like five foot two, one hundred and twenty pounds,
- 14:46Speaker 2: so I can't dunk. But again, back to the whole
- 14:51Speaker 2: All Star Game. In the NBA, they're deflated ratings. I
- 14:55Speaker 2: think it's crazy that they just got seventy six billion.
- 14:59Speaker 2: Can you imagine how much the NFL is going to get.
- 15:03Speaker 3: That's going to be absurd. If the NBA, with their deflated.
- 15:08Speaker 2: Rankings, their viewership in the tank, nobody really watches it.
- 15:13Speaker 2: If they got seventy six billion, we don't want to
- 15:18Speaker 2: see the payday the NFL's about to get.
- 15:21Speaker 1: Oh yeah. So a couple of little points I want
- 15:25Speaker 1: to point out about the NBA All Star The NBA
- 15:29Speaker 1: introduced a new format for twenty twenty five All Star Game,
- 15:33Speaker 1: opting for a fourteen tournament over the traditional East versus
- 15:37Speaker 1: West setup. Three of the teams were drafted by NBA
- 15:40Speaker 1: on TNT analysts Charles Berkley, Shaquille O'Neal, and Kenny Smith,
- 15:46Speaker 1: while the fourth squad was the Rising Stars team that
- 15:50Speaker 1: won Friday's tournament. So all of a sudden, here's your
- 15:55Speaker 1: All Star game and you're putting rising stars who have
- 15:59Speaker 1: barely played how many seasons? Or I mean to me,
- 16:03Speaker 1: they're not your all Stars, They're they're up and coming.
- 16:07Speaker 1: But did they earn the right to be in that
- 16:10Speaker 1: format of a game. That's a rhetorical question you don't
- 16:15Speaker 1: need to answer. And yes, Lebron was a late scratch,
- 16:20Speaker 1: which meant they couldn't replace him. Now here's your biggest
- 16:25Speaker 1: star in your game, the star that I would say,
- 16:31Speaker 1: one of the stars that represents the whole league. And
- 16:35Speaker 1: here he knew going in if he had a leg
- 16:40Speaker 1: foot injury. Why he didn't pull out early enough that
- 16:46Speaker 1: somebody else could have replaced him? Right to your point,
- 16:51Speaker 1: JD is unheard of Like that that speaks volumes, and
- 16:56Speaker 1: if you don't know what that speaks, I'm sorry, but come.
- 16:59Speaker 2: On, well, and Kobe Bryant, I'm sorry to interrupt you,
- 17:03Speaker 2: but Kobe Bryant said the same thing before, though, So
- 17:06Speaker 2: I've went to a Lebron game before and Fortunately it
- 17:09Speaker 2: was in Charlotte and he played. But I think about
- 17:12Speaker 2: those fans maybe that went to this All Star Game,
- 17:16Speaker 2: maybe they went to go.
- 17:17Speaker 3: See Lebron, right, I think he's playing.
- 17:20Speaker 2: And then not only that, a video like two days
- 17:24Speaker 2: ago came out of him playing basketball and you know,
- 17:26Speaker 2: playing exercising and stuff with his kids and his family,
- 17:29Speaker 2: which is all well and good shout out to that,
- 17:33Speaker 2: but if your ankle hurt so bad, you're probably playing
- 17:37Speaker 2: harder with your kids than you would have in this
- 17:39Speaker 2: All Star Game. Meanwhile, we got the NHL Four Nations Canada, USA. Man,
- 17:45Speaker 2: they dropping gloves. They're literally fighting on the like the
- 17:50Speaker 2: best thing happens when you combine two things together, and
- 17:53Speaker 2: to me, hockey and UFC are combined together. And so
- 17:56Speaker 2: they got it right with their All Star Game to
- 17:58Speaker 2: tie all that in together. Candy Gory, I agree, I
- 18:02Speaker 2: agree viewership.
- 18:03Speaker 1: So the NHL decided to do four nations and they
- 18:09Speaker 1: America played Finland first. That so the teams that were
- 18:15Speaker 1: involved were Sweden, Finland, Canada, and USA. For those that
- 18:19Speaker 1: don't know, they did a round robin in the first
- 18:22Speaker 1: round and then the winners with the most points will
- 18:27Speaker 1: play the Championships. That'll be Thursday night. So USA played
- 18:34Speaker 1: Canada on Saturday night for those of you, and I'm
- 18:39Speaker 1: going to age myself as well that remember back in
- 18:43Speaker 1: the day, Saturday night in Canada, it was the same
- 18:49Speaker 1: exact feeling like it was Canada versus USA. Heightened. How
- 18:58Speaker 1: should I put this? Heightening anxiety? Lots of lots of
- 19:06Speaker 1: how should I put it? A sense of pride, a
- 19:12Speaker 1: sense of pride for both teams, and I think that
- 19:15Speaker 1: was really heightened. And yes, the first nine seconds, three
- 19:20Speaker 1: different fights, and some of it was that to Chuck Brothers.
- 19:25Speaker 1: If you look back in history, their dad played in
- 19:29Speaker 1: a similar game and did similar fighting. And so I
- 19:34Speaker 1: thought it was cool. And I'm not the only one
- 19:37Speaker 1: that watched it. There were ten point one million people
- 19:40Speaker 1: that watch Saturday night hockey in Canada versus USA. Now
- 19:47Speaker 1: they'll play the championship game on Thursday again. The two
- 19:51Speaker 1: teams are going to be facing each other again with
- 19:55Speaker 1: what with arguably the biggest name in hockey, Conor McDavid
- 20:00Speaker 1: on the Canada team.
- 20:02Speaker 4: Mm hmmm, he's one of the biggest, but there's a
- 20:09Speaker 4: bigger one.
- 20:10Speaker 1: I want to know if I didn't, but I know
- 20:17Speaker 1: JD your thoughts on Four Nations and the NHL.
- 20:21Speaker 2: And uh, well, I thought that USA Canada game was fantastic.
- 20:27Speaker 2: I don't do much hockey, but I preferred it over
- 20:31Speaker 2: the NBA All Star Game for sure. And then I
- 20:34Speaker 2: know that Pensman make sure you guys hit subscribing like
- 20:37Speaker 2: on his channel as well. He's got tons of shorts
- 20:40Speaker 2: and so I'm gonna toss it up to him in
- 20:41Speaker 2: just a second. Uh and see, look, we'll see if
- 20:43Speaker 2: we can tie this all on a nice bowt real quick, Pensman,
- 20:46Speaker 2: So you did a bunch of shorts about the NHL
- 20:49Speaker 2: Four Nations.
- 20:50Speaker 3: I loved.
- 20:51Speaker 2: I learned a ton about hockey from them, and I'm good.
- 20:54Speaker 2: The biggest thing with hockey is I can't keep track
- 20:57Speaker 2: of the puck. It's it's so like, can we make
- 21:02Speaker 2: it anything other than black? Can we make it neon yellow?
- 21:06Speaker 2: Can we put a highlighter around it? Like anything? Because
- 21:09Speaker 2: I can't ever see the puck?
- 21:10Speaker 3: I have no idea.
- 21:12Speaker 2: And so the hockey thing was great, and he did
- 21:14Speaker 2: tons of stuff with the hockey on his YouTube shorts.
- 21:17Speaker 2: I did tons about NASCAR, and so that's why I
- 21:20Speaker 2: was not watching the NBA All Star Game. And again,
- 21:23Speaker 2: like I said, I would prefer to have watched the
- 21:25Speaker 2: NHL All Star Game over the NBA All Star Game.
- 21:29Speaker 2: And then I did have one very important question for
- 21:31Speaker 2: you both. Can anybody explain to me why Saturday Night
- 21:35Speaker 2: Live was on a Sunday?
- 21:43Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 21:44Speaker 2: I heard somebody say this the other day and they
- 21:45Speaker 2: were like, yeah, so Saturday Night, Saturday Night Live was terrible.
- 21:50Speaker 2: So I started watching the dayton of five hundred, and
- 21:53Speaker 2: I thought they were joking, and then I was like, no,
- 21:56Speaker 2: they're serious, Like it.
- 21:58Speaker 3: Was Saturday Night Live was on a Sunday.
- 22:01Speaker 2: I mean, I get it was a big fiftieth anniversary,
- 22:05Speaker 2: but why not have it on Saturday.
- 22:06Speaker 3: I mean, that's the name of the show, right.
- 22:09Speaker 4: The only thing I can think of is because of
- 22:11Speaker 4: four Nations being on the ABC.
- 22:13Speaker 3: I think, I think, yeah, I didn't want to compete
- 22:16Speaker 3: with Hockey.
- 22:17Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, it's going by what Candy said. With all
- 22:22Speaker 4: the viewers, they were probably all amped up and they
- 22:26Speaker 4: probably didn't want to see They didn't want to put
- 22:28Speaker 4: it on because of that game. And that's the one
- 22:30Speaker 4: thing I could think of.
- 22:32Speaker 3: Well, I was being kind of facetious when I said
- 22:34Speaker 3: that to you.
- 22:35Speaker 4: Yeah, I got you.
- 22:36Speaker 3: I guarantee you. Saturday Night Live was bigger than hockey.
- 22:39Speaker 4: Well I'm sure it was.
- 22:42Speaker 1: Yeah, viewership for that was. But that wasn't the first
- 22:47Speaker 1: anniversary special they did though, either. Is what I've been
- 22:50Speaker 1: told for Saturday Night Live.
- 22:54Speaker 3: Oh yeah, they've done a few. But yeah, that was
- 22:56Speaker 3: just a little joke. I thought I was tied end.
- 22:58Speaker 2: But yeah, NASCAR was great, one hundred NHL. Yeah, it
- 23:03Speaker 2: was a fantastic weekend for sports for sure.
- 23:05Speaker 4: I thought perfect.
- 23:10Speaker 1: Okay, one last thing about that whole full thing.
- 23:17Speaker 4: Do you want me to do my take quick.
- 23:19Speaker 1: I'm gonna I want to add one quick thing before
- 23:21Speaker 1: you and then you can talk.
- 23:22Speaker 4: Okay.
- 23:23Speaker 1: It was the most so that match between USA and
- 23:26Speaker 1: Canada was the most viewed than any other non Stanley
- 23:30Speaker 1: Cup final game since twenty fourteen. Wow, now, Pensman, you
- 23:36Speaker 1: can go ahead.
- 23:38Speaker 4: That's crazy. That's real crazy with all with all that history,
- 23:41Speaker 4: that's crazy. But doing doing the four Nations that was exhausting,
- 23:49Speaker 4: cause you have one game, then you have the next
- 23:51Speaker 4: game that you have. Sometimes they have one o'clock and
- 23:54Speaker 4: at eight o'clock and this and then this time it's like, okay, guy,
- 23:58Speaker 4: keep doing this, I keep up with that. So I
- 24:00Speaker 4: had to keep up with the times how to do
- 24:02Speaker 4: work around by schedule, and it's like, okay, here we go,
- 24:07Speaker 4: JD with your puck question. The one year they only
- 24:11Speaker 4: did it one year in the All Star Game, they
- 24:13Speaker 4: had a light blue highlight thing and the pucked. I
- 24:18Speaker 4: don't know why they went away with it, but where
- 24:21Speaker 4: the puck was, that's where the white went. So why
- 24:26Speaker 4: can't they do it in a regular game? Why can't
- 24:28Speaker 4: they do it more often? I don't know, more people
- 24:31Speaker 4: would get into it. So NHL commissioner, if you're watching,
- 24:34Speaker 4: get that highlighter on. So right, but that but that
- 24:39Speaker 4: game was crazy? Go ahead, yeah, no, Yeah.
- 24:42Speaker 2: What I was gonna say though, is I'm pretty sure, Candy.
- 24:44Speaker 2: Don't we have MLB coming up here in this a moment?
- 24:47Speaker 2: Mm hmm okay, well yeah, speaking of that little blue
- 24:50Speaker 2: highlighter pup, the MLB is testing something out in spring
- 24:55Speaker 2: training this year. If you guys haven't heard about it,
- 24:58Speaker 2: that might that might pop up up here, and our
- 25:00Speaker 2: next topic just saying who knows, so.
- 25:05Speaker 3: It might yeah, yeah, go back and forth.
- 25:11Speaker 4: Yeah, but as far as tomorrow night, it's gonna be
- 25:14Speaker 4: a good game. I'll be on fire up on that
- 25:17Speaker 4: when it happens, so I'll be going back and forth
- 25:20Speaker 4: watching that and doing this. So probably gonna be a
- 25:24Speaker 4: lot of viewers watching that game. And Canada you know
- 25:28Speaker 4: better not to boot during the national anthem during you
- 25:31Speaker 4: know better. That's why you guys got in trouble during
- 25:35Speaker 4: the Canada and some other game I forget. I think
- 25:38Speaker 4: it was Sweden or Finland, because I forget which one
- 25:40Speaker 4: it was. They said to be quiet and be respectful
- 25:44Speaker 4: because of what you guys did on Saturday was on
- 25:47Speaker 4: call for.
- 25:50Speaker 1: Agree.
- 25:51Speaker 3: So yeah, that was wild.
- 25:55Speaker 1: I would agree, and JD I would tell you one
- 25:57Speaker 1: of the things that you talk about watching it hockey
- 26:01Speaker 1: and watching the puck, try being a camera person taking
- 26:06Speaker 1: pictures of a hockey game. Because I've done that. I've
- 26:09Speaker 1: been there and done that. That is not easy. That
- 26:13Speaker 1: is and it's a very different sport to shoot photography
- 26:17Speaker 1: for compared to like your football, your even your baseball,
- 26:21Speaker 1: and your basketball. Hockey is definitely that's a challenge.
- 26:27Speaker 2: I will say, I can't even imagine. I've been blessed
- 26:32Speaker 2: to go to a few firm in basketball games this
- 26:34Speaker 2: year with media credentials and it's hard for me to
- 26:38Speaker 2: even keep up with the players sometimes, like when I'm
- 26:40Speaker 2: trying to record videos like I'm usually I'm pretty good
- 26:42Speaker 2: at it. I already told you I can't see the puck.
- 26:46Speaker 2: I mean, you'll see these glasses I got on. I
- 26:48Speaker 2: can't see the puck. Dude, I'm toasting hockey.
- 26:50Speaker 3: Unless they do.
- 26:51Speaker 2: Something where there's like a bright yellow thing on the
- 26:54Speaker 2: hot on the puck that I can see, I'm toasted.
- 26:56Speaker 2: I might could maybe sit front row and see the
- 27:00Speaker 2: I think I would be okay front row, but then
- 27:02Speaker 2: I got to worry about some six foot three and
- 27:05Speaker 2: forty pound guy coming through the glass and crushing me.
- 27:10Speaker 1: Okay, we're gonna move on to a topic that's very
- 27:13Speaker 1: different than what we normally talk about, selfies. Believe it
- 27:20Speaker 1: or not, the FBI used selfies off an apple iCloud
- 27:28Speaker 1: account that a Chilean gang had uploaded pictures of them
- 27:35Speaker 1: with a whole bunch of stolen merchandise from who other
- 27:42Speaker 1: than pro athletes. So we all heard about Patrick Mahomes,
- 27:47Speaker 1: Travis kelce Portois from the Milwaukee Bucks right there, and
- 27:58Speaker 1: their houses were broken into at the time of games.
- 28:03Speaker 1: While this Chilean gang decided to take pictures while they
- 28:06Speaker 1: were doing after the fact showing displaying them with all
- 28:10Speaker 1: of these artifacts. I think it was up to like
- 28:13Speaker 1: three million dollars worth of stolen merchandise, and the FBI
- 28:20Speaker 1: got a warrant to search their iCloud account and arrest
- 28:26Speaker 1: some of these guys. Can you believe what has this
- 28:29Speaker 1: world come to?
- 28:30Speaker 4: Like?
- 28:30Speaker 1: Are you really I hate to say this, but are
- 28:33Speaker 1: you really that dumb that you're gonna put pictures of
- 28:36Speaker 1: all this up? Really? Seriously, JD, speak your mind? How
- 28:43Speaker 1: do you feel about this one?
- 28:45Speaker 2: Well, give me just one second as I go in
- 28:48Speaker 2: here and try to delete everything off of my iCloud.
- 28:51Speaker 3: This might take a minute. No, I'm kidding, but one of.
- 28:54Speaker 2: My favorite sayings, and I'm sure you guys maybe have
- 28:57Speaker 2: heard it before. If you play stupid games, you win
- 29:00Speaker 2: stupid prizes, all right, And yeah, sounds like a fantastic idea.
- 29:05Speaker 2: Everybody lives in the social media world, So let's go
- 29:08Speaker 2: rob one of the most popular quarterbacks in the NFL.
- 29:11Speaker 2: I think that was some where some of the merchandise
- 29:13Speaker 2: came from. Was Joe Burrow, their number nine and all
- 29:16Speaker 2: of that.
- 29:17Speaker 3: So, yeah, sounds like a fantastic idea. We're gonna go.
- 29:21Speaker 2: And not only are we gonna do it, we're not
- 29:23Speaker 2: even gonna try to keep it a secret. You know,
- 29:27Speaker 2: we're gonna We're gonna help the people that will come
- 29:30Speaker 2: dust for fingerprints, what do you call them, crime scene
- 29:33Speaker 2: technicians or whatever. We're gonna help those guys out. They
- 29:36Speaker 2: won't even have to take pictures. We'll take the pictures
- 29:39Speaker 2: for them, Like, come like, literally, what are what are
- 29:45Speaker 2: you doing? But I am so glad though that nobody
- 29:48Speaker 2: was hurt during the incident. I'm glad they chose to
- 29:50Speaker 2: do it when no one was home. But yeah, we
- 29:52Speaker 2: saw this happen, I know down there in Miami. I'm
- 29:55Speaker 2: sure you guys heard Tua. He said, Hey, don't test
- 29:59Speaker 2: that over here, because my security is armed. They all
- 30:03Speaker 2: amped up their security because of this. They shouldn't have
- 30:05Speaker 2: had to. I'm always a firm believer that athletes are
- 30:09Speaker 2: human beings as well, So you know.
- 30:12Speaker 3: Sometimes their personal lives their personal lives.
- 30:15Speaker 2: And when you go to someone's home and you start
- 30:19Speaker 2: interfering with their family and their well being, and you know,
- 30:22Speaker 2: taking things that aren't yours, that sort of thing, that's
- 30:25Speaker 2: where I draw the line, like, these people deserve as
- 30:28Speaker 2: much privacy as anyone else despite being famous athletes.
- 30:34Speaker 1: Well, there's a time and a place where they're out
- 30:36Speaker 1: there for the fans and that they can talk to
- 30:39Speaker 1: and you you know, most all of them have a
- 30:41Speaker 1: time and a place.
- 30:42Speaker 2: Right, Whether it's not like they're Batman, it's like, no,
- 30:45Speaker 2: it's not like nobody knows who they are, right, They're
- 30:48Speaker 2: they're available, right. But yeah, obviously this was a targeted
- 30:54Speaker 2: It happens so many and so many different places. Yes,
- 30:58Speaker 2: there has to be there's somebody at the top pull
- 31:01Speaker 2: in some strings, because there's no way this happened in
- 31:04Speaker 2: so many different places at just the right time, so
- 31:08Speaker 2: that it was all concocted one way or another by
- 31:10Speaker 2: one person or one group of people.
- 31:12Speaker 3: I think.
- 31:14Speaker 1: Well, they are saying that Mahomes and Kelsey were the
- 31:17Speaker 1: first known victims in early October, one of them during
- 31:20Speaker 1: the October seventh Monday night football game against the Saints
- 31:23Speaker 1: at Arrowhead. The unnamed Bucks player was targeted on October
- 31:28Speaker 1: twenty first during a game against the ravens Portois from
- 31:33Speaker 1: the Milwaukee Bucks. His home was struck on November two
- 31:37Speaker 1: during a game against the Cavaliers Burroughs home was burglarized
- 31:42Speaker 1: during a December ninth game at the Cowboys, and the
- 31:46Speaker 1: unnamed Grizzlies player home was burglar is during a December
- 31:50Speaker 1: nineteenth home game against Golden State. No information has been
- 31:55Speaker 1: provided regarding possible NHL victims identified by the FBI or
- 32:01Speaker 1: additional NBA victims. Well close to the time of the
- 32:05Speaker 1: Kansas City Breweries, the Dallas Stars, Tyler Seguin reported a
- 32:09Speaker 1: home break in with watches valued at five hundred thousand,
- 32:12Speaker 1: reportedly taking in December and estimated twenty three thousand dollars
- 32:17Speaker 1: and jewelry was stolen from Luca donis Dallas home before
- 32:21Speaker 1: a trade sent him to Los Angeles. It's not clear
- 32:26Speaker 1: if this gang is behind either of those two, but seriously,
- 32:31Speaker 1: come on, pensman your thoughts.
- 32:34Speaker 4: I want to add to what you're saying. Ralph Williams
- 32:39Speaker 4: and Candy, since he's gonna be on the show tomorrow,
- 32:41Speaker 4: I wants you to witness this and go to subscribe
- 32:44Speaker 4: to as channel too. But Ralph said that the any
- 32:49Speaker 4: Maulkin plays for the Pittsburgh Penguins, somebody broken his puse
- 32:54Speaker 4: in December. Don't know who it is. That's why I
- 32:58Speaker 4: was going to ask if anybody caught that went in
- 33:00Speaker 4: this house what he was playing a game at PPG
- 33:04Speaker 4: Arena that night he went somebody went in this house,
- 33:09Speaker 4: grabbed his Stanley Cup Final ring and left.
- 33:16Speaker 2: Didn't somebody steal a bunch of O. J. Simpson Memorabelia
- 33:19Speaker 2: or something too?
- 33:20Speaker 3: Wasn't that a thing?
- 33:23Speaker 4: Probably? Probably?
- 33:24Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm pretty yeah, I'm pretty sure OJ. Yeah, And
- 33:26Speaker 3: I think that's why he ended up in jail, one.
- 33:29Speaker 4: Of one of the reasons. One of the reasons. There
- 33:33Speaker 4: was a couple. There was a couple other times, but
- 33:35Speaker 4: that's probably one of the times.
- 33:37Speaker 3: Yeah, Well, just as will always find a way to
- 33:40Speaker 3: be served. We'll leave that of that.
- 33:42Speaker 4: But but why would you do back to the topic,
- 33:47Speaker 4: why would you do selfies? Like, hey, here, I am.
- 33:52Speaker 2: I can't hey, I can't stand taking a selfie of
- 33:54Speaker 2: myself doing something fun.
- 33:56Speaker 4: I can't stand doing I can't stand doing shorts right
- 34:01Speaker 4: much less.
- 34:01Speaker 3: If I go out here like, oh, yeah, I'm gonna
- 34:05Speaker 3: go do something really bad.
- 34:06Speaker 2: Oh I'm not wearing my seat belt let me because
- 34:08Speaker 2: that's one thing I so and Danny Canell.
- 34:11Speaker 3: He posted a video while back.
- 34:13Speaker 2: You can see He's on the interstate and he's talking
- 34:15Speaker 2: about nil and college football and I can clearly see
- 34:18Speaker 2: the steering wheels in front of him, but he ain't driving, and.
- 34:21Speaker 3: He said he had his car on self drive. But
- 34:23Speaker 3: either way, that seems unsafe to me.
- 34:26Speaker 2: So it's just wild though, like, oh my goodness, play
- 34:30Speaker 2: stupid games, win stupid prizes people.
- 34:33Speaker 1: There you go, there you go. Okay, on to another topic.
- 34:39Speaker 1: Joe Buck is going to call a baseball game. He
- 34:44Speaker 1: hasn't called one in a while. He is gonna call
- 34:47Speaker 1: the opener between the Brewers and Yankees Opening Day on
- 34:52Speaker 1: ESPN at three pm, and then the second game that
- 34:55Speaker 1: ESPN is gonna have that day, Tigers versus the Dodgers
- 34:59Speaker 1: at seven pm. Two pretty big name. I mean, let's
- 35:03Speaker 1: face it, Yankees were in the playoffs last year. Dodgers
- 35:07Speaker 1: obviously took it. Some pretty big games coming up. What
- 35:12Speaker 1: do we think about Joe Buck and those Opening Day
- 35:15Speaker 1: games on ESPN This time, I'm gonna start with you,
- 35:18Speaker 1: Pensman about time.
- 35:22Speaker 4: Joe Buck. He is a fantastic broadcaster, fantastic He's one
- 35:27Speaker 4: of the best ones in broadcasting. He calls it how
- 35:34Speaker 4: it is, he does it sugarcoat. Anything he sees something,
- 35:38Speaker 4: he will call it. He's just like John Badden in baseball.
- 35:42Speaker 4: I'm just but I'm glad I saw that. I'm so
- 35:46Speaker 4: glad that he's broadcasting that and the Yankees and Candy
- 35:50Speaker 4: probably Yankees fan. Candy is a Brewers fan. And it's
- 35:53Speaker 4: the best game to break broadcast. Get the It's the
- 35:58Speaker 4: first game of the season. Why not?
- 36:02Speaker 1: Yep?
- 36:03Speaker 2: Okay, jad, I am all for baseball, all four college
- 36:08Speaker 2: baseball that just started this weekend, all four the m
- 36:11Speaker 2: they'll be opening Day, and yet nobody better to headline
- 36:15Speaker 2: it as a broadcaster than mister Joe Buck. Yes, he
- 36:19Speaker 2: has a fantastic voice. I don't really like my voice
- 36:23Speaker 2: very much, and so this dude, though, he's silky smooth.
- 36:27Speaker 2: Everything he says just has like the perfect inflection on it.
- 36:31Speaker 2: He enunciates well all of the things that you need
- 36:34Speaker 2: to have good communication skills. And there's nobody I'd rather
- 36:38Speaker 2: see calling Opening Day Yankees Brewers other than Joe Buck.
- 36:43Speaker 2: Maybe they'll even have Troy Aikman in there, give Cowboys
- 36:45Speaker 2: a little runtime.
- 36:48Speaker 1: Butck's last national broad baseball broadcast was November two, twenty
- 36:53Speaker 1: twenty one, when the Atlanta Braves beat the Houston Astros
- 36:56Speaker 1: in Game six of the World Series.
- 37:00Speaker 3: Hopefully that's a good time for the Atlanta Braves.
- 37:05Speaker 1: He will be in the broadcast booth with YES Network
- 37:12Speaker 1: analyst Joe Girardi and Brewers analyst Bill Schrader, So it'll
- 37:18Speaker 1: be interesting to have the three of them in the
- 37:21Speaker 1: booth calling that game, considering the ties that Bill has
- 37:25Speaker 1: with Milwaukee and Girardi has with the Yankees. So that'll
- 37:29Speaker 1: make it for a very interesting I think call game
- 37:34Speaker 1: to call, and that again is on March twenty seventh,
- 37:41Speaker 1: so that is a Thursday afternoon.
- 37:45Speaker 3: And not very far away either.
- 37:47Speaker 4: No can Another thing I was going to say is
- 37:51Speaker 4: that'd be awesome of him and Michael Kay. We're on
- 37:53Speaker 4: the same broadcasting. If you guys are a Yankees fan
- 37:57Speaker 4: or listen to Yankees fan, Michael Kay does a fan
- 38:00Speaker 4: fantastic job. He has his own talk show too on
- 38:03Speaker 4: ESPN Radio at three o'clock, which sometimes I listen to
- 38:06Speaker 4: if I have time. But Michael Kay and him, that
- 38:10Speaker 4: would be awesome broadcast.
- 38:15Speaker 1: Okay, well that is I'm going to do a quick
- 38:19Speaker 1: station break because I haven't done one yet, so let
- 38:21Speaker 1: me quick get that out of the way pay some
- 38:23Speaker 1: of those bills. The salth Word Tribune Publishing Company published

- 38:58Speaker 1: young timingless so, and of course there's a picture of

- 40:03Speaker 1: don't you start?
- 40:06Speaker 4: The Pittsburgh Penguins play Saturday at three o'clock. They play
- 40:11Speaker 4: against the Capitols. If you're going to make this last
- 40:15Speaker 4: push to the playoffs, the playoffs are in April. Don't
- 40:18Speaker 4: know the exact date in April, but if the Pittsburgh
- 40:21Speaker 4: Penguins are going to make a push, you got to
- 40:24Speaker 4: win games order to get there. You can't win one game,
- 40:29Speaker 4: two games and lose four and win one or two.
- 40:32Speaker 4: It does not work. It does mathematically does not work.
- 40:36Speaker 4: You have to win three four in a row, dead,
- 40:39Speaker 4: lose one or two, come back well after the Crosby's
- 40:43Speaker 4: playing against what he's playing with Tampa, but he's the
- 40:48Speaker 4: only Penguin that's playing in those four nations. You guys
- 40:51Speaker 4: should be healthy, you should be rusted up. Let's win
- 40:55Speaker 4: some games and make the playoffs. We have it in
- 40:57Speaker 4: yet we're not that far off. No more were losing streaks.
- 41:01Speaker 4: I'm sick of it.
- 41:06Speaker 1: Okay, JD. Your parting shots.
- 41:10Speaker 2: Well, first of all, I'm gonna make my parting shot
- 41:14Speaker 2: not a hockey puck, because if it were, I'd miss it.
- 41:18Speaker 2: And so if y'all have listened to the show this evening,
- 41:21Speaker 2: Chuck and Mark, I see you guys out there. Thank
- 41:24Speaker 2: y'all so much for tuning in. Make sure to hit subscribe.
- 41:27Speaker 2: As Candy just said at South Florida Tribune, don't forget

- 41:38Speaker 3: and you can find me on Facebook. JD Wyatt.
- 41:40Speaker 2: I'm not hard to find. I'm usually right here all
- 41:43Speaker 2: the time. But my parting shot, though, Candy and I'll
- 41:46Speaker 2: see if you guys can follow up maybe on this
- 41:48Speaker 2: one and you can tie it in a nice little
- 41:49Speaker 2: bow after this. But for my fiftieth episode the other day,
- 41:53Speaker 2: I was trying to figure out things to do with
- 41:55Speaker 2: the number fifty, and they kind of fell in my lap.
- 41:59Speaker 3: So we started at eight fifty.
- 42:03Speaker 2: Normally started at nine, started at eight fifty, so had
- 42:06Speaker 2: that number in there.
- 42:08Speaker 3: We also had my.
- 42:09Speaker 2: Kid's fifth birthday that I told you guys about. We
- 42:12Speaker 2: also had a baseball game that could have been the
- 42:14Speaker 2: run rule.
- 42:15Speaker 3: Well it was the run rule.
- 42:16Speaker 2: It was thirty six twenty two, but we were talking
- 42:20Speaker 2: about that game. We got robbed of our first ever
- 42:22Speaker 2: fifty to fifty baseball game in college baseball.
- 42:24Speaker 4: And that ended in the fifth inning.
- 42:26Speaker 2: Yeah it was right, yeah, yeah, like we were robbed.
- 42:30Speaker 2: They were on their way, Like at this point, who
- 42:33Speaker 2: were they? Who was even pitching? Who was even pitching?
- 42:36Speaker 3: Were they bringing fans out of the stands?
- 42:38Speaker 1: Like?
- 42:39Speaker 3: What what is even fifth inning? And you've given up.
- 42:42Speaker 2: Fifty eight runs combined and the team that actually won
- 42:46Speaker 2: was down fourteen to three. Can you imagine being up
- 42:50Speaker 2: fourteen to three and losing the game in baseball?
- 42:53Speaker 3: So that's wild.
- 42:54Speaker 2: And then my last parting shot though this is the
- 42:56Speaker 2: one I wanted to get you guys takes on. I
- 42:58Speaker 2: decided to do a top five of number zeros and
- 43:03Speaker 2: Among that list were Carmelo Anthony. Oh goodness, I have
- 43:08Speaker 2: the list somewhere close by one that I had.
- 43:11Speaker 3: Russell Westbrook.
- 43:12Speaker 4: Westbrook was one.
- 43:14Speaker 2: Oh, Bobby Bonds, there you go, and not Tony Gwyn
- 43:19Speaker 2: Tony Clark, Tony Clark, Bobby Bonds, there you go.
- 43:23Speaker 3: Pensman, Yeah, thank you.
- 43:24Speaker 2: So it was yeah, Russell Westbrook and then the Nastar Yeah,
- 43:28Speaker 2: the double zero buck Shot Jones. Is that not a
- 43:32Speaker 2: great name? Is that not a fantastic name? Buckshot Jones.
- 43:35Speaker 2: So that's my parting shot. Y'all hit subscribe like and Candy,
- 43:39Speaker 2: you're awesome. You nailed that promo read By the way,
- 43:43Speaker 2: just wanted to give you that compliment.
- 43:45Speaker 1: Thank you, thank you. I appreciate that. My pleasure numbers zeros,
- 43:49Speaker 1: that's interesting. I never even thought of it.
- 43:51Speaker 2: There there there was so, there was Gilbert A. Renas,
- 43:54Speaker 2: A lot of them were NBA. There was actually very
- 43:57Speaker 2: because NFL. I don't think you can have the numbers
- 44:00Speaker 2: yuro even anymore, but there was something you could.
- 44:03Speaker 4: Yeah, you didn't. You didn't see one of my comments,
- 44:07Speaker 4: by the way, since since I have, since I have you,
- 44:09Speaker 4: it's DeAndre Swift was on there. Oh really, yeah, yeah,
- 44:14Speaker 4: he was on. He was number zero. He didn't look
- 44:16Speaker 4: at my comment.
- 44:19Speaker 3: Well, we were flying through. It was great, man. Episode
- 44:23Speaker 3: fifty was fantastic.
- 44:25Speaker 4: It was I'm dis messing with you.
- 44:26Speaker 3: Oh no, man no.
- 44:27Speaker 2: And I even postponed it a little bit, so I
- 44:31Speaker 2: had to get creative candy. So I was at episode
- 44:35Speaker 2: forty nine for a while and I was like, I
- 44:37Speaker 2: was like, no, I'm holding off on this fifty until
- 44:39Speaker 2: I figure something out. And so yeah, I started doing
- 44:42Speaker 2: like Southern Fried Sports after dark, Southern Fried Sports just
- 44:46Speaker 2: with nothing after it, and then yeah, we hit the
- 44:48Speaker 2: fifty one. Man, it was a fun time. It was
- 44:50Speaker 2: fantastic and I was actually waiting for it. I love
- 44:53Speaker 2: being here with you guys. I love talking sports with
- 44:55Speaker 2: different people.
- 44:56Speaker 3: It's you know what I mean.
- 44:58Speaker 2: And so I'm here to unif by the fans. And
- 45:01Speaker 2: I did say my pleasure of mendigo, and that's always
- 45:04Speaker 2: what I'll try to be. I'll try to be honest,
- 45:06Speaker 2: I'll try to be a gentleman, and I'll try to
- 45:08Speaker 2: give you the best sports take, sports opinion that I
- 45:11Speaker 2: possibly can.
- 45:12Speaker 3: And we might even have a few jokes along the way,
- 45:15Speaker 3: who knows.
- 45:16Speaker 4: There you go, there you go.
- 45:18Speaker 1: My parting shot, kudos to the Milwaukee Brewers. They what
- 45:24Speaker 1: they did is they had Bob Aker's signature and they
- 45:28Speaker 1: put it on the field for spring training, for their
- 45:32Speaker 1: spring training all their spring training games. So if you
- 45:35Speaker 1: look at their field, if you don't know who Bob
- 45:38Speaker 1: Buker is, I'm sorry you missed a great man, great broadcaster.
- 45:43Speaker 1: I mean, he just did everything well. And he is
- 45:45Speaker 1: from my hometown back in the ninely Falls, Wisconsin. Really, yes,
- 45:51Speaker 1: yes he lived, that's where he That's where he lived
- 45:54Speaker 1: for the majority he's actually he was born in Milwaukee.
- 45:57Speaker 1: But yes, great broadcaster, funny man. Loved him, Rest in peace.
- 46:05Speaker 1: We did a special on him on our YouTube channel,
- 46:09Speaker 1: so if you want to check that out you can.
- 46:11Speaker 1: But kudos to the Brewers for trying. And they're gonna
- 46:14Speaker 1: wear a special patch on their uniform for the whole year,
- 46:18Speaker 1: So kudos to that. Loved Youker, loved you ger.
- 46:24Speaker 2: He was hilarious in Major League Oh yes, I mean,
- 46:28Speaker 2: and that's what so you know, me not being much
- 46:31Speaker 2: of a Brewers fan, like I knew the guy and
- 46:33Speaker 2: I knew he was an actual announcer, but what he
- 46:36Speaker 2: was able to do in that movie though, was fantastic,
- 46:40Speaker 2: And yeah, absolutely, that's a good parting shot though, for sure.
- 46:42Speaker 1: Candy, Yes, yes, And he actually played in the TV
- 46:46Speaker 1: series Mister Belvetere if you knew, Yep, he was good there.
- 46:50Speaker 1: He was obviously lights out in Major League That was awesome.
- 46:55Speaker 1: And he did a lot of light beer Miller light
- 46:58Speaker 1: Beer commercials back in the day as well. So you know,
- 47:03Speaker 1: fifty years in an industry like he was, it's just
- 47:08Speaker 1: unbelievable awesome.
- 47:10Speaker 2: And that's after he played, right, And yeah, we offered
- 47:14Speaker 2: because he talked about how much he sucked. He's that's
- 47:18Speaker 2: what he always made fun of himself. And the one
- 47:20Speaker 2: thing I was gonna say, though, is did you guys
- 47:22Speaker 2: see the Division three? It kind of all ties into
- 47:24Speaker 2: the Major League and you know, Bob talk, did y'all
- 47:28Speaker 2: see the Division three team? They recreated the commercial, the
- 47:31Speaker 2: old spice commercial from Major League and they nailed it. Yeah,
- 47:35Speaker 2: there's a Division three baseball team. The video has been
- 47:39Speaker 2: on Twitter and stuff. You guys can probably search it easily.
- 47:41Speaker 2: Division three Major League video. I'm sure it'll pop up.
- 47:45Speaker 2: But they do the whole commercial and they've got it
- 47:47Speaker 2: side by side and they nailed it.
- 47:51Speaker 3: And so yeah, shout out to.
- 47:52Speaker 2: Bob and that whole Major League movie the Brewers. Even
- 47:57Speaker 2: everything's in a nice little bow, Candy.
- 48:00Speaker 1: Actly, isn't that the way it should be? We tie
- 48:02Speaker 1: it all up?
- 48:03Speaker 5: You know?
- 48:04Speaker 1: Awesome? Awesome, awesome. Well, what's the time in the night
- 48:07Speaker 1: where we're going to talk about where people can get
- 48:09Speaker 1: a hold of you, where they can see you, where
- 48:11Speaker 1: they can definitely subscribe to you guys and watch you start.
- 48:17Speaker 1: Oh sorry, depends on the job.
- 48:19Speaker 4: Yeah, I got one. I got one question for Are
- 48:21Speaker 4: you gonna take? Are you going to take a take
- 48:23Speaker 4: on Daniel Jones and Pittsburgh? We you just talked about
- 48:27Speaker 4: us too when we had that little debate. But I
- 48:29Speaker 4: don't know if you had a take. I just want
- 48:31Speaker 4: to I just want to. I just want to put you.
- 48:34Speaker 4: I just want to know if you had an input
- 48:36Speaker 4: on it.
- 48:37Speaker 3: Yes, Candy, I would love to hear this.
- 48:40Speaker 1: Honestly, I would Pittsburgh stay away. Daniel Jones is way overrated, overpaid.
- 48:47Speaker 1: He throws too many interceptions. You guys do not need that.
- 48:51Speaker 4: We have enough issues, and.
- 48:53Speaker 1: You already have guys that can do a job. I
- 48:58Speaker 1: think better than what Daniel Jones would in fields. You
- 49:04Speaker 1: already have someone better. Why why rock that boat? Are
- 49:09Speaker 1: you guys going to draft somebody? I would say, there
- 49:13Speaker 1: are only a few quarterbacks in this draft that I
- 49:16Speaker 1: would consider taking, and they're not going to fall to you.
- 49:20Speaker 1: They're going to go I think a lot earlier, and
- 49:24Speaker 1: there's only a handful of them that I that I
- 49:27Speaker 1: personally think we'll go. But Scott is going to be
- 49:30Speaker 1: on an NFL draft call tomorrow, so hopefully that maybe
- 49:37Speaker 1: if he's feeling up to it, it might have some
- 49:39Speaker 1: takes tomorrow. You never know, he's going to be on.
- 49:43Speaker 1: Daniel Jeremiah's going to have a draft for the media.
- 49:47Speaker 2: So I've heard Daniel Jeremiah's name before, Yes, some times, actually.
- 49:53Speaker 1: Yes, So it was out. We got an email from
- 49:57Speaker 1: the NFL since we were they're covering the Super Bowl
- 50:01Speaker 1: last I will say one thing I will say, since
- 50:05Speaker 1: I covered the Super Bowl and we were there for
- 50:08Speaker 1: Super Bowl Week and media row and all that stuff,
- 50:11Speaker 1: the one thing I surprised me is I do not
- 50:16Speaker 1: know football players outside of their uniform put their uniform on,
- 50:22Speaker 1: because I see them on Sundays there are helmets on
- 50:24Speaker 1: their uniforms with their numbers and their names on them,
- 50:27Speaker 1: but put them in street clothes. I'm not sure I
- 50:30Speaker 1: know who you are when you're unless you're some of
- 50:33Speaker 1: the big name ones. Like I knew Jordan Love because
- 50:35Speaker 1: obviously I'm a Packer fan. I knew Jordan Love, I
- 50:38Speaker 1: knew Dan Marino. I knew some of the big name ones,
- 50:43Speaker 1: but a lot of the other up and coming or
- 50:45Speaker 1: that were there, I didn't. I couldn't always recognize them.
- 50:49Speaker 1: So I got to do some more research and watch
- 50:51Speaker 1: that before I go to the next one.
- 50:53Speaker 4: I just want to know what your take was, because
- 50:56Speaker 4: JD and I pretty much took control of that and
- 50:59Speaker 4: you went to the next topic.
- 51:00Speaker 3: So no, I think that's what it was.
- 51:02Speaker 2: Pensman. I think she just agreed with it. I think
- 51:05Speaker 2: I think we said everything I'll say you about that.
- 51:08Speaker 3: Yeah, that is hilarious.
- 51:14Speaker 4: Man.
- 51:15Speaker 1: Okay, so let's go back to telling everybody where they
- 51:18Speaker 1: can find you. Let's start with Pensman.

- 54:05Speaker 3: a fire hydrant.
- 54:06Speaker 4: There you go.
- 54:07Speaker 3: That would be my advice. Carry an umbrella in the ring.
- 54:11Speaker 3: Don't pet strange dogs.
- 54:13Speaker 2: And if you watch fire Up, come prepared with a
- 54:15Speaker 2: fire hydrant because they're gonna fire up something, just like
- 54:19Speaker 2: the southern gentleman will fry up something and hurry.
- 54:23Speaker 1: There you go.
- 54:24Speaker 4: I think that's the only thing you can't expect to
- 54:26Speaker 4: fire up is what Jad.
- 54:27Speaker 3: Said, exactly, fire up a fryer, do it now?
- 54:33Speaker 1: Yeah, one last ask for all of you. On Tuesday
- 54:39Speaker 1: nights at seven point thirty, I am on an all
- 54:43Speaker 1: female sports talk It's Chicks and Salsa or three Chicks
- 54:47Speaker 1: in a Pod and the reason why we have both.
- 54:50Speaker 1: It started out with three chicks in a pod before me.
- 54:54Speaker 1: They added me as their fourth chick and I'm like, well,
- 54:56Speaker 1: we can't be three chicks in a pod if I'm
- 54:58Speaker 1: a fourth chick. So we created Chicks and Salsa. So
