- 0:18Speaker 2: Outlet pass off over to Ty Jones and a three.
- 0:22Speaker 3: That one's good.
- 0:24Speaker 2: Now it's leader one fourteen to eighty two with five
- 0:27Speaker 2: and a half left to go in the game. It's
- 0:29Speaker 2: been this way for a while, folks, but I'll put
- 0:32Speaker 2: a stamp on it for you.
- 0:34Speaker 4: This thing is over.
- 0:39Speaker 2: Down five seconds left to go. In Denver, the Nuggets
- 0:45Speaker 2: blow out the Philadelphia seventy six ers and sweep away
- 0:50Speaker 2: the season series. Nuggets leader wire to wire final tonight
- 0:55Speaker 2: from Denver one twenty four to ninety six. Leading score tonight.
- 1:00Speaker 2: So then it's Christian Brown.
- 1:03Speaker 5: So the Nuggets do exactly what you should do to
- 1:05Speaker 5: a team that does not care about basketball anymore, and
- 1:07Speaker 5: that is from the very start, take a commanding lead
- 1:10Speaker 5: and never let go of that the entire way through. Look,
- 1:15Speaker 5: it's really good that the Nuggets played the way that
- 1:17Speaker 5: they did. You had your leading scores were Christian Brown
- 1:21Speaker 5: and Cam Johnson. Nobody played more than twenty seven minutes
- 1:25Speaker 5: last night. I'm more blown away at how.
- 1:29Speaker 4: Bad six ers are.
- 1:31Speaker 3: God, they're bad.
- 1:33Speaker 5: They have nobody, man, no one. But that's exactly what
- 1:37Speaker 5: you should do, so credit to the Nuggets. You should
- 1:40Speaker 5: blow out a team that has stopped trying and you
- 1:43Speaker 5: eliminate all hope after the first quarters.
- 1:46Speaker 4: Another game like that tonight, the team that's lost eight
- 1:49Speaker 4: in a row. More games like that, please? If I
- 1:51Speaker 4: can get more games like that on the way down
- 1:53Speaker 4: to the playoffs, that'd be nice.
- 1:55Speaker 5: Well, yet, a game like that tonight, you're gonna have
- 1:56Speaker 5: another one like that on Friday as you take on Utah,
- 1:59Speaker 5: Like this is you know, there's.
- 2:02Speaker 3: I thought Friday was Toronto.
- 2:05Speaker 5: Uh, well, we're giving away tickets to Friday's game.
- 2:11Speaker 3: It's Toronto. Hold on, God, you're embarrassing, man Nellie. Is
- 2:17Speaker 3: this an issue that we're gonna have today? You're just
- 2:20Speaker 3: an embarrassing game?
- 2:21Speaker 4: Hey, don't blame me.
- 2:24Speaker 3: Yeah. I think the SuperSonics were in ton on Friday, vic.
- 2:27Speaker 5: Yeah, oh maybe, hang on, hang on, this is what happens.
- 2:30Speaker 3: So we're giving away tickets today.
- 2:32Speaker 5: It's a Nuggets ticket Thursday because all the other shows
- 2:34Speaker 5: are off Tomorrow and Friday.
- 2:36Speaker 4: Because they don't care about the audience.
- 2:37Speaker 3: And we do.
- 2:39Speaker 5: So it's the Friday, the twenty seventh, my bad twenty seventh,
- 2:44Speaker 5: not the twenty second, which is port Utah.
- 2:48Speaker 6: Perhaps I should pay attention more, and I guess I
- 2:50Speaker 6: blame myself, and I do. But there were some dudes
- 2:54Speaker 6: on the floor for Philly last night, and I'm like,
- 2:57Speaker 6: who the hell is that?
- 2:59Speaker 7: Who's that? How was that guy in the league?
- 3:01Speaker 4: Yeah, they've turned in their card already. You think they've
- 3:04Speaker 4: turned in their draft card to the commissioner for the draft.
- 3:07Speaker 3: Yeah, no, didn't.
- 3:08Speaker 4: There was a bunch of games like that in the
- 3:09Speaker 4: NBA last night. This time of year, when you have
- 3:13Speaker 4: some teams that just have no interest in competing and
- 3:17Speaker 4: other teams who are jockeying for position for the playoffs,
- 3:21Speaker 4: it makes for some very vulnerable games.
- 3:25Speaker 3: Put it that way.
- 3:26Speaker 6: And no offense. But I thought Kyle Lowry was dead
- 3:30Speaker 6: and he's he played eighteen minutes last night.
- 3:33Speaker 7: No offense. Guy's like eighty. How old is that guy?
- 3:37Speaker 3: You know? He played?
- 3:38Speaker 4: He played for Miami the year that the Nuggets won
- 3:40Speaker 4: themselves a championship.
- 3:42Speaker 6: I remember he was ancient then. Anyway, that's the way
- 3:45Speaker 6: it should go. Yes, you're a sixteen point favorite. You
- 3:48Speaker 6: blow him out by almost thirty and that's the way,
- 3:51Speaker 6: that's the way it should go.
- 3:52Speaker 5: There wasn't even a remote possibility the Sixers won that game,
- 3:56Speaker 5: not even not even a second.
- 3:59Speaker 4: There's one thing that happened in that game last night. Yeah,
- 4:04Speaker 4: there's one thing that happened that I found very interesting.
- 4:07Speaker 4: And yeah, let's see if you. First of all, there's
- 4:09Speaker 4: two things I saw. I saw a boy, Brett Kane
- 4:12Speaker 4: without a hat on, and I couldn't recognize it.
- 4:14Speaker 7: I know that was wild, very handsome.
- 4:18Speaker 5: Why you're very handsome, thanks hat on, Thank you.
- 4:22Speaker 6: I'm helping you out. I don't thought he was very attractive. Yeah,
- 4:26Speaker 6: I'm just I'm just trying to make you feel good.
- 4:29Speaker 5: I had two women who listened to the show who said,
- 4:31Speaker 5: you clean up very nicely.
- 4:33Speaker 7: Really, yes, want you shave that thing off your face?
- 4:37Speaker 3: Don't you talk to me about shaving things off your face.
- 4:39Speaker 4: It's gone, it'll be back, yeah, don't bring it back.
- 4:44Speaker 4: Are going on the virus?
- 4:45Speaker 1: Oh?
- 4:46Speaker 3: What?
- 4:46Speaker 4: What? What emerged last night? This is what I believe
- 4:50Speaker 4: to be very interesting.
- 4:52Speaker 5: Jokids trying to make a point by bear hugging Andre
- 4:54Speaker 5: Dromon and getting the technical.
- 4:56Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah, you know he's I think he figures
- 5:00Speaker 4: as long as no one else is going to do
- 5:02Speaker 4: anything about it, and as long as this continues game
- 5:05Speaker 4: after game, I'm gonna do it until they'd notice it.
- 5:10Speaker 4: And last night they noticed it to the tune of
- 5:12Speaker 4: a technical foul.
- 5:13Speaker 3: Yep, when's the last time Jokic got teed up?
- 5:16Speaker 5: It's been a long time. It has been now. I
- 5:18Speaker 5: think that I think I have this right, don't I.
- 5:20Speaker 5: Vic wasn't it said that he was going to make
- 5:23Speaker 5: more of an effort at the beginning of this year
- 5:25Speaker 5: to not bark at the refs as much.
- 5:27Speaker 4: He told me that at the end of the season,
- 5:29Speaker 4: and he hasn't like he has.
- 5:30Speaker 5: He hasn't gotten nearly as many technicals as he used
- 5:33Speaker 5: to yet. But I think last night he was like,
- 5:36Speaker 5: all right, if this is the way we're going to
- 5:38Speaker 5: do this, then I'm going to prove a point and
- 5:40Speaker 5: I'm just gonna lean on him the way the guys
- 5:41Speaker 5: lean on me. And if you call a foul, I'm
- 5:43Speaker 5: gonna let you know. We'll then do it on both
- 5:45Speaker 5: both ends.
- 5:46Speaker 4: To use the immortal words of the Mark Moser, It's
- 5:49Speaker 4: twenty twenty six playoffs are coming, yeah, and sometimes you
- 5:53Speaker 4: got to do things to prepare for those playoffs. And
- 5:56Speaker 4: I believe last night was him sending a volley saying, hey, hey, refs,
- 6:01Speaker 4: playoffs are coming. Remember if they do this to me,
- 6:06Speaker 4: I gotta be able to do it to them.
- 6:09Speaker 3: Yeah. You know, I'll be honest with you. Don't get
- 6:15Speaker 3: too much from the game last night.
- 6:16Speaker 5: Because I don't really know how to evaluate a team
- 6:19Speaker 5: that cares versus a team that doesn't. But I will
- 6:21Speaker 5: say this, Cam Johnson and Christian Brown playing with confidence,
- 6:27Speaker 5: as we mentioned before, is a massive difference maker on
- 6:30Speaker 5: this team when they are just very much in the
- 6:31Speaker 5: mode catch. If I'm open, catch, shoot, make plays happen.
- 6:36Speaker 5: It does matter, and it will matter against the better
- 6:38Speaker 5: teams in the league. One thing that I have recognized
- 6:41Speaker 5: from maybe an overall standpoint, nuts specific last night, the
- 6:48Speaker 5: Nuggets are gonna have a lot of games like this
- 6:50Speaker 5: that are left in their schedule. They're playing a lot
- 6:52Speaker 5: of teams that have folded up shop and do not
- 6:54Speaker 5: care the tougher games that they have.
- 6:57Speaker 4: So what's listed.
- 6:58Speaker 5: They have two games against Santa Antono, they have a
- 7:01Speaker 5: game against OKAC, But the last two games of the
- 7:04Speaker 5: year San Antonio Oka. See, they're probably going to be
- 7:08Speaker 5: resting guys for the playoffs by then, So you really
- 7:11Speaker 5: have one game against San Antonio. The next toughest opponent
- 7:14Speaker 5: you have is either Phoenix or Golden State, depending on
- 7:18Speaker 5: who you think is better.
- 7:19Speaker 3: Everybody else sucks.
- 7:21Speaker 6: See, these teams are going to come into those games
- 7:23Speaker 6: with a stickhole, right, Yeah, and then what you do
- 7:28Speaker 6: is you you you stick it in their stick hoole. Yeah,
- 7:33Speaker 6: that's what you do if you want to go to
- 7:35Speaker 6: the Vick Lombardi school of thought and win now ten
- 7:39Speaker 6: of your remaining thirteen games those loser teams. I said it,
- 7:44Speaker 6: Your dang Rode said it. You stick it right in
- 7:47Speaker 6: those loser stickholes. That's what you do.
- 7:49Speaker 5: But Vick, you asked me this in the pregame yesterday
- 7:52Speaker 5: when I stopped by for a second.
- 7:56Speaker 3: What does it tell you kind of you to grace
- 7:58Speaker 3: him with your presence?
- 7:59Speaker 5: He asked me to come, Oh, what is.
- 8:03Speaker 3: It going to take for the Nuggets to catch the Lakers?
- 8:06Speaker 5: And remember you have you were going into last night
- 8:10Speaker 5: you were three games back technically because they own the
- 8:13Speaker 5: tie breaker. But given your schedule, let me tell you
- 8:17Speaker 5: who the Lakers have to face before the end of
- 8:19Speaker 5: the year. They gotta face Houston tonight in Houston.
- 8:22Speaker 4: They got a fourty the way, if I had to
- 8:25Speaker 4: pick a team to play in the first round, it'd.
- 8:27Speaker 3: Be Houston, which fine, but it's not an easy game.
- 8:30Speaker 4: It's what I'm saying.
- 8:31Speaker 3: Yeah, go ahead.
- 8:32Speaker 5: So they they're on the second game of a six
- 8:36Speaker 5: game road trip right now.
- 8:38Speaker 3: So they're at Houston.
- 8:39Speaker 5: Then they go tomorrow at Miami, then at Orlando, then
- 8:43Speaker 5: at Detroit, then at Indiana.
- 8:46Speaker 3: But what they have.
- 8:47Speaker 5: Left here, they still have to play Cleveland, they play
- 8:49Speaker 5: Oka See twice, and that's in enough time to where
- 8:53Speaker 5: Okay See is probably still going to be playing. They
- 8:56Speaker 5: play Golden State and Phoenix, like they actually have some
- 8:58Speaker 5: tough games left on their schedule.
- 9:01Speaker 4: Well, I mean, again, you got to make up a
- 9:02Speaker 4: lot of ground here. You got to make up more
- 9:04Speaker 4: than two games because of the tiebreaker, and you have
- 9:08Speaker 4: no room for error while you're hoping they do. So
- 9:12Speaker 4: I'm just wondering how vital that.
- 9:14Speaker 3: Third seed is. Maybe four seed.
- 9:16Speaker 7: Is just as good.
- 9:17Speaker 5: That's what I think. I think four seed is good enough.
- 9:21Speaker 5: You know, I'm just of the mind, go ahead, get
- 9:27Speaker 5: okay see in the second round. Let's get this over with,
- 9:29Speaker 5: either beat them or don't you know what I mean, like,
- 9:31Speaker 5: let's just do it, because I think that they still
- 9:34Speaker 5: have a shot. You know, I keep going back to
- 9:36Speaker 5: last year. Man, the fact that you were in a
- 9:37Speaker 5: game seven with a chance to advance, with no depth
- 9:40Speaker 5: and everybody hurt is crazy to me. And despite okay,
- 9:45Speaker 5: see kind of having your number this year, it's at
- 9:48Speaker 5: the end of games. They haven't blown you out. All
- 9:51Speaker 5: those games have been closed. I just kind of want
- 9:55Speaker 5: that get the four seed and face them in the
- 9:56Speaker 5: second rounds.
- 9:57Speaker 4: Who do you not want to play in the first round?
- 10:00Speaker 4: Saying the Nuggets end up with the four seed?
- 10:01Speaker 3: Who do you not want to see?
- 10:05Speaker 4: Uh? Because there's there's basically Minnesota. Yeah there's Yeah, I
- 10:09Speaker 4: was thinking the same thing. I mean, it would be
- 10:11Speaker 4: a pain in the mouth to play Minnesota in the mouth, yeah,
- 10:16Speaker 4: it would be. I would I would prefer Houston. I
- 10:18Speaker 4: think Houston is gonna drop though, that's my prediction.
- 10:20Speaker 6: Okay, so then you've got to study. Okay, but I
- 10:26Speaker 6: mean he'll be back for the postseason. You gotta start
- 10:27Speaker 6: rooting for somebody to win, somebody to lose. So if
- 10:30Speaker 6: we're not going to catch the Lakers, then maybe you
- 10:33Speaker 6: want them to stick it to the Rockets.
- 10:34Speaker 3: Is it tonight? But yes, Lakers Rockets, Yes night. Okay.
- 10:41Speaker 5: We continue, by the way, our drop tournament. Every day
- 10:45Speaker 5: this week. At the end of every segment, there will
- 10:47Speaker 5: be a different matchup and you will text in right

- 11:02Speaker 5: matchup here.
- 11:05Speaker 4: It is gonna be fun.
- 11:07Speaker 5: I can tell one seed is represented by which Bogdanovitch
- 11:12Speaker 5: do they have?
- 11:14Speaker 4: They have Bogdan Bogdan by Wait, they have the good one.
- 11:20Speaker 3: That's Bogdon. They have the Atlanta one. The good one
- 11:24Speaker 3: is Bogdon.
- 11:25Speaker 5: Bogg Yeah, Bogdan bogged On Bogdan bogged on big Don Bagdon.
- 11:34Speaker 5: You know, it's still one of my favorites that goes

- 11:52Speaker 6: Yeah, honestly, it's gonna be hard for Bagdon to beat Gabe.
- 11:57Speaker 5: No, no think so no, Bagdon's gonna win. In Gabe
- 12:01Speaker 5: doesn't get to advance just because he's Gabe. Why not
- 12:04Speaker 5: how this goes, it's the better drop so to vote

- 13:07Speaker 5: that the Broncos maybe didn't have last year, that he
- 13:10Speaker 5: excels at.
- 13:12Speaker 3: But in the middle of that, yeah, PhD said something.
- 13:15Speaker 5: They turned this into an argument with your wife, by
- 13:18Speaker 5: the way, where they weren't arguing the point, they went
- 13:21Speaker 5: their own sort of direction on what they wanted to
- 13:24Speaker 5: pick knits and us about.
- 13:25Speaker 4: So, Sola Harad, I have a problem opening my eyes

- 14:27Speaker 5: join us at eight o'clock this morning, Luca Evans at
- 14:31Speaker 5: nine twenty. They'll break down this Jaalen Waddel trade. Also
- 14:35Speaker 5: that really good article he had in the Post a
- 14:37Speaker 5: couple of days ago. But the Evan Evan Broncos approach
- 14:42Speaker 5: to this offseason now Jalen waddle when he was traded
- 14:47Speaker 5: yesterday to the Broncos. Uh, I think it does a
- 14:51Speaker 5: couple of different things. But let me start here. If
- 14:54Speaker 5: I said, where does Jalen Waddel rank in the AFC
- 14:57Speaker 5: West as far as skill position talent? What would you say?
- 15:01Speaker 3: What do you mean? Where does he rank?
- 15:02Speaker 6: Like?
- 15:04Speaker 4: If you all all skill period running back, tight ends.
- 15:09Speaker 3: Be better? Be better?
- 15:10Speaker 5: As a description, skill position talent is classified as wide receivers,
- 15:16Speaker 5: tight ends, and running backs.
- 15:17Speaker 6: Well, he in a better wide out than Patrick Mahomes
- 15:19Speaker 6: is a quarterback, wide receivers, tight ends and running backs.
- 15:23Speaker 3: Why is this hard for you guys? I mean, because
- 15:25Speaker 3: I mean we used to Where does he rank? I
- 15:26Speaker 3: mean all time?
- 15:27Speaker 4: I mean among the active players?
- 15:30Speaker 3: What does this mean?
- 15:31Speaker 4: You've got to be better skill position talent in the
- 15:35Speaker 4: AFC West.
- 15:36Speaker 3: This is the easiest question I could ask, you know what,
- 15:41Speaker 3: Let me go on a list.
- 15:42Speaker 5: Okay, let me help, let me help, and this will
- 15:45Speaker 5: make this very very simple. I think he's the second
- 15:49Speaker 5: best guy in the division. I think brock Bowers is
- 15:51Speaker 5: the only one better. Definitive definitively, I think he's the
- 15:55Speaker 5: only one better.
- 15:56Speaker 4: That's that's He's a ridiculous statement. Has he ever made
- 15:59Speaker 4: a Pro Bowl?
- 16:00Speaker 3: Jaylen Model? Yeah? No, Okay, Corland Sutton on his own
- 16:04Speaker 3: team has.
- 16:06Speaker 5: Wait wait pro bowls that featured Shador Sanders is how
- 16:09Speaker 5: are mastering talent?
- 16:10Speaker 3: Understand?
- 16:11Speaker 4: But Corland Sutton has had better seasons, better numbers. This
- 16:14Speaker 4: guy is a change of pace receiver. But just because
- 16:17Speaker 4: you go get a guy does an automatically vault into
- 16:19Speaker 4: the top of your list. Okay, then that's why I'm
- 16:21Speaker 4: asking the question. Well, let me you would take him
- 16:24Speaker 4: over as she Rice.
- 16:25Speaker 6: Let me jump in and say, you're pretty much onto
- 16:29Speaker 6: something here. Yeah, outside of Bowers, he's he's probably right there.
- 16:36Speaker 3: I mean, some people in LA may.
- 16:38Speaker 6: Like I like Lad mcconff and Maconkey, but outside of
- 16:44Speaker 6: he's better.
- 16:45Speaker 7: I think he's better anybody Kansas City has.
- 16:46Speaker 4: Here's what I'm Here's what I'm here to tell you.
- 16:48Speaker 4: This isn't just said Sutton over Waddle from Vick is insane.
- 16:52Speaker 4: I'm talking about production here, people, There's nothing insane about that.
- 16:56Speaker 4: You can't even compare the two from a production standpoint.
- 17:00Speaker 4: It's insane about it. You could, No, you can't, No,
- 17:04Speaker 4: you can't. I could if you'd allow me to.
- 17:08Speaker 5: Jaalen Waddell was the number two wide out on his
- 17:10Speaker 5: team the entire time he was there, he was getting
- 17:12Speaker 5: the second most looks, not the number one target.
- 17:14Speaker 4: So why is he the number two wide out?
- 17:17Speaker 3: Because Tyreek Hill was amazing.
- 17:19Speaker 4: Okay, so he's the number two wide out in Denver.
- 17:22Speaker 3: What's he going to be? I don't know.
- 17:25Speaker 4: Actually, I'm he's going to be the number two wide
- 17:27Speaker 4: out in Denver. Let me let me make it very
- 17:29Speaker 4: easy for you. He's going to be the number two
- 17:31Speaker 4: wide out.
- 17:32Speaker 3: Listen.
- 17:32Speaker 4: I love the acquisition. I love it, but let's pump
- 17:37Speaker 4: the Brakes a little bit. Hang on, but you're you
- 17:39Speaker 4: think I'm making this anything you feel.
- 17:42Speaker 5: You seem to think I'm making this about Jaylen Waddel,
- 17:45Speaker 5: and I'm not the bigger topic here. And what I'm
- 17:48Speaker 5: trying to get at is the AFC West just isn't
- 17:50Speaker 5: all that talented at these positions anymore.
- 17:53Speaker 4: They used to be good. Understood, I listen, Do I
- 17:57Speaker 4: believe the Broncos got better?
- 17:59Speaker 6: Yeah?
- 18:00Speaker 3: Did they add an explosive piece.
- 18:01Speaker 4: To their offense, Yeah, But some of the reaction it's
- 18:05Speaker 4: as if they just added the second coming.
- 18:07Speaker 3: Of Jerry Rice. Let's he's up a little bit. Here,
- 18:11Speaker 3: he's up.
- 18:11Speaker 4: He's gonna be a nice piece to the offense.
- 18:14Speaker 5: Here's you seem to be convinced that Courtland Sutton like
- 18:18Speaker 5: when you look at number one wide outs and here's
- 18:20Speaker 5: what's weird. They're completely different types of guys. I don't
- 18:26Speaker 5: know who's gonna have the most targets by the end
- 18:28Speaker 5: of the year.
- 18:28Speaker 4: I honestly don't.
- 18:29Speaker 3: I think Wadall very much could he could be the
- 18:31Speaker 3: highest targeted player on this offense.
- 18:33Speaker 6: A lot of it, with a lot of it has
- 18:35Speaker 6: to do with vic how much bo Nicks and he
- 18:38Speaker 6: how quickly did they get on the same page.
- 18:40Speaker 4: How much they have to make a bet that Courtland
- 18:43Speaker 4: Sutton is still the highest targeted receiver on this team.
- 18:45Speaker 4: I will bet you everything I own, including this backboard
- 18:49Speaker 4: that took me a week to put together on my wall.
- 18:51Speaker 7: You didn't even build it.
- 18:52Speaker 3: See.
- 18:52Speaker 5: But here's the thing you're I'm just all I'm saying
- 18:55Speaker 5: is I'm not so sure, is all I'm saying. You
- 19:00Speaker 5: know there were times, Vic, you got to remember how
- 19:02Speaker 5: many games did Courtland Sutton have where he was only
- 19:04Speaker 5: targeted two or three times?
- 19:06Speaker 4: Like that? Is they bracketed him. And that's the beauty
- 19:08Speaker 4: of Jalen Waddle. You brought in a guy now who's
- 19:10Speaker 4: going to open the field up for a Courtland Sutton.
- 19:13Speaker 6: I think what Brett is getting out of here, though, Vick,
- 19:15Speaker 6: is that when you do the comparison against other teams
- 19:19Speaker 6: inside the AFC West, he's he's really high up there.
- 19:25Speaker 6: I mean, wherever you want to put him on his
- 19:26Speaker 6: own team is fine. But keenan Allen, who was a
- 19:30Speaker 6: stud in his heyday, is old Lad McConkie's pretty damn good.
- 19:35Speaker 6: The Raiders have. They got Tucker, they got Jakobe Myers.
- 19:39Speaker 6: These guys are pretty good.
- 19:41Speaker 4: But something I think there are a lot of you
- 19:43Speaker 4: out there that don't understand what you get in here.
- 19:47Speaker 4: I really believe that, and I said it from the
- 19:49Speaker 4: bottom of my heart. I love you all. You're getting
- 19:52Speaker 4: a quality, explosive peace. It's gonna make your offense better.
- 19:56Speaker 4: He's not a possession receiver. That's not me saying that.
- 20:00Speaker 4: Some of the best wide receiver former receivers in the
- 20:04Speaker 4: world saying that. Okay, for example, this text from five
- 20:09Speaker 4: to zero two two. Can you stop old man Vic
- 20:12Speaker 4: from glazing Sutton? Wattle is much better than him?
- 20:16Speaker 3: That's how wrong. You're wrong. He's not better than him.
- 20:21Speaker 4: He's faster than him, he's younger than him, he's more
- 20:24Speaker 4: explosive than him. But I guarantee you this, when the
- 20:28Speaker 4: game is on the line and there's a receiver that
- 20:30Speaker 4: bow Knicks want to want to go to, and he's
- 20:33Speaker 4: not being doubled or bracketed, he's gonna want to go
- 20:35Speaker 4: to Courtland Sutton. That's a guarantee because we've seen it already. Now,
- 20:42Speaker 4: do they want more out of him in the playoffs,
- 20:44Speaker 4: of course, But what do the opposing defenses do in
- 20:47Speaker 4: the playoffs, what.
- 20:48Speaker 3: Do they do.
- 20:52Speaker 5: I'm just I'm not as convinced as you. I'm not
- 20:55Speaker 5: saying that you're wrong, Vic, I'm just not that convinced
- 20:58Speaker 5: about it.
- 20:59Speaker 3: Uh.
- 21:00Speaker 5: I don't think that you make this move for Jalen
- 21:04Speaker 5: Waddel without the intentions of this guy being like if
- 21:08Speaker 5: it's if he's not one then one B. I don't
- 21:11Speaker 5: think that you do it like I don't. I don't
- 21:13Speaker 5: think there's gonna be this vast gap between Sutton and
- 21:16Speaker 5: Model they weren't looking for necessarily, And this is what's difficult.
- 21:20Speaker 5: There's so many unknowns to this. For example, I have
- 21:23Speaker 5: no idea what Davis Webb is gonna look like as
- 21:25Speaker 5: an offensive play crowler.
- 21:26Speaker 4: I agree that I'm gonna make it bet right now
- 21:28Speaker 4: with everybody who disagrees with me. It's a wager, and
- 21:31Speaker 4: I don't care what I have to wager. If both
- 21:34Speaker 4: players are healthy, all right, I health is part of it.
- 21:38Speaker 4: A lot of you think he's gonna catch more passes
- 21:40Speaker 4: than Sutton. I will bet everything I own on that.
- 21:43Speaker 3: Okay, Well we'll find out, Vic, We'll find out.
- 21:46Speaker 7: Again.
- 21:46Speaker 6: If it was me and I was bow Nix, I
- 21:48Speaker 6: would want my blankie, I will be of Courland Sutton
- 21:51Speaker 6: as well.
- 21:52Speaker 3: It doesn't make him better. Can I ask you a question.
- 21:54Speaker 4: If I think Jalen Wattle is a perfect complimentary piece
- 21:57Speaker 4: for this offense, I love it.
- 21:58Speaker 3: I love it, But he's not a possession receiver. He's
- 22:02Speaker 3: not a volume receiver.
- 22:03Speaker 4: He's not.
- 22:05Speaker 5: Here's my hesitation. What do you think of Troy Franklin
- 22:09Speaker 5: as a receiver? Like, he's not comparable to Sutton, though
- 22:14Speaker 5: Sutton is his heads and shoulders above Franklin. Right, Franklin
- 22:19Speaker 5: had nine less catches than Sutton last year. Franklin Like,
- 22:23Speaker 5: that's why I'm saying, when you talk about targets and
- 22:24Speaker 5: getting guys to football, I think Jalen Moddell could easily
- 22:28Speaker 5: have more catches than Courtland Sutton. Maybe Sutton's catches are
- 22:32Speaker 5: a bigger fifteen twenty yard downfield sort of contested catch
- 22:36Speaker 5: plays that are more memorable. But if you just talk
- 22:39Speaker 5: about getting a guy of the football, I mean what
- 22:41Speaker 5: Waddall does, and this is what I wanted to get at.
- 22:43Speaker 5: He does the bulk of his work in the intermediate
- 22:46Speaker 5: center part of the field. Forty percent of his receiving
- 22:50Speaker 5: yards came from that area. Okay, nobody on the Broncos
- 22:54Speaker 5: had near that. The highest they had was Sutton at
- 22:56Speaker 5: thirteen percent.
- 22:57Speaker 6: I completely understand, and I explained that you let's go
- 23:00Speaker 6: around though inside the division good when you're looking around
- 23:05Speaker 6: and Myers went to the Jags. When you're looking around
- 23:07Speaker 6: the rest of the AFC, you're still on the outside
- 23:13Speaker 6: looking in in my opinion, because you've got teams like, oh,
- 23:17Speaker 6: I don't know, Cincinnati obviously is loaded. Oh conference wise, yeah,
- 23:21Speaker 6: conference wise, I'm talking AFC. Sure are people looking at
- 23:25Speaker 6: what's going on in Houston and the kind of season
- 23:27Speaker 6: that Nico Collins had.
- 23:30Speaker 4: Well, Nico Collins is really good.
- 23:31Speaker 7: Yeah, you think wait, Ago Brett good recognition.
- 23:34Speaker 3: Well you said that like it was a surprised Like, Okay.
- 23:38Speaker 7: I look around and let me get the vis point here.
- 23:41Speaker 6: I look around and I say, okay, Za Flowers Stud,
- 23:46Speaker 6: Jamar Stud, Nico Stud. You know Cortland. Let me back
- 23:52Speaker 6: Vic up here. Courtland was the top fifteen wide out
- 23:56Speaker 6: last season. Guys, Guys, still pretty damn good. And you're
- 24:01Speaker 6: only there's only one other team, by the way, now
- 24:04Speaker 6: you have Wattle moving in vict twenty what was he
- 24:07Speaker 6: twenty five twenty six last year in terms of receiving
- 24:10Speaker 6: yards or whatever it was.
- 24:13Speaker 7: I think the Broncos are the only team.
- 24:16Speaker 6: Well, there's gotta be one other that have two guys
- 24:19Speaker 6: in the top twenty five.
- 24:20Speaker 3: I'll have to look it up, but I.
- 24:22Speaker 7: Mean they're they're they've done something where they really help themselves.
- 24:25Speaker 4: VICTI, I'm not the only one one who feels this way.
- 24:27Speaker 4: I think this is this is an explosive piece to
- 24:30Speaker 4: this offense. It's gonna change the dynamics of this offense entirely. Now,
- 24:34Speaker 4: who's gonna catch more passes? A different argument, different argument.
- 24:38Speaker 4: Who's gonna be the possession guy? It's obvious to me.
- 24:41Speaker 4: I'm gonna read you a quote Chris Thomason in the
- 24:43Speaker 4: Gazette who.
- 24:45Speaker 3: Said this quote, this kid's explosive.
- 24:48Speaker 4: I think with the right mix of players and play calls,
- 24:51Speaker 4: he could be the guy who can catch one and
- 24:53Speaker 4: make it big. But he's not a possession receiver to me.
- 24:57Speaker 4: He's one of those guys who catches a slant and
- 25:00Speaker 4: fifteen yards versus seven yards, he catches a go route
- 25:03Speaker 4: over the top.
- 25:04Speaker 3: That's what he is. What do we call that? Brett?
- 25:08Speaker 3: Who do you think said that?
- 25:11Speaker 6: Uh?
- 25:13Speaker 4: It's former Broncos receiver Rod Smith. You think he knows
- 25:16Speaker 4: a little bit about the game. Yeah, it's Rod Smith
- 25:20Speaker 4: who said that, Not Vig, not me. That's Rod Smith,
- 25:22Speaker 4: and I could give you more. I'm just telling you
- 25:24Speaker 4: what you're getting here, and I'm not trying to change things.
- 25:29Speaker 3: I'm not.
- 25:29Speaker 4: I hope this guy catches one hundred and fifty passes,
- 25:32Speaker 4: but that's not what he is. But the explosive nature
- 25:37Speaker 4: vic is something we haven't seen in a long one
- 25:40Speaker 4: hundred percent, long time, one hundred percent.
- 25:43Speaker 3: That's why he's gonna make this team a lot.
- 25:44Speaker 6: We've been pot We've been pining and pining and pining.
- 25:48Speaker 3: Yeah, I just don't like the whole Oh we got
- 25:50Speaker 3: this guy.
- 25:50Speaker 4: Now, let's go ahead and demean Courtland's sonnon like he
- 25:53Speaker 4: meant nothing to this team when he's been your best receiver.
- 25:55Speaker 3: It's not, but it's not demeaning him.
- 25:57Speaker 5: I don't think it's unfair to say that if Courtland
- 26:01Speaker 5: Sutton's your number one wide out that you're looking to
- 26:03Speaker 5: improve on, that.
- 26:05Speaker 4: Colin Sunn is still your number one white out on
- 26:06Speaker 4: this team.
- 26:09Speaker 3: Okay, I mean I don't know how else to put that.
- 26:12Speaker 4: Who's the number one wide out on the Denver Broncos,
- 26:15Speaker 4: the number one receiver.
- 26:16Speaker 3: And how do you I guess, how do you define that? Well,
- 26:19Speaker 3: that's that's the different definition.
- 26:20Speaker 5: Like you're talking about when Rod Smith says he's not
- 26:23Speaker 5: a possession guy. Yeah, that's not his game. It's it's
- 26:26Speaker 5: that's Sutton's type of game.
- 26:28Speaker 3: I don't have.
- 26:28Speaker 5: You don't think number one possession guy doesn't mean you're
- 26:31Speaker 5: the number one wide out. It's just a different sort
- 26:33Speaker 5: of fit. Okay, Like i'd say this prototypically, does Tyreek
- 26:40Speaker 5: Hill feel like in his prime anyway, Let's say in
- 26:42Speaker 5: Kansas City, does that feel like a number one wide
- 26:44Speaker 5: out on the team.
- 26:45Speaker 3: Well, yeah, well.
- 26:47Speaker 5: No it doesn't because he's five foot ten, Like usually
- 26:50Speaker 5: you're your number one guy, looks like we're Sutton.
- 26:52Speaker 6: Okay, Well we're talking about production and explosive Tyreek in
- 26:56Speaker 6: his prime as the number one dude.
- 26:57Speaker 4: Let me tell you this. His rookie year.
- 26:59Speaker 5: Jayalen Wall's rookie year was one hundred and four catches
- 27:01Speaker 5: for one thousand yards and six touchdowns, and that was
- 27:03Speaker 5: his a number two. His second year was seventy five
- 27:06Speaker 5: for fourteen hundred yards and eight touchdowns. That's as a
- 27:08Speaker 5: number two, that's the explosion. I'm saying there's a capability
- 27:11Speaker 5: that you can have a receiver that's more of a
- 27:15Speaker 5: I get an open space and make a play afterwards
- 27:17Speaker 5: kind of guy. I'm in ross Saint Brown's like that,
- 27:20Speaker 5: like he's just somebody. You get the ball in his hands,
- 27:22Speaker 5: He's gonna make a guy miss and get ten extra yards.
- 27:24Speaker 6: But let me go back to let me go back
- 27:26Speaker 6: VIC two to his example. Real quick, you say, year
- 27:29Speaker 6: number two for Jalen Waddle, the explosive thiss was there?
- 27:31Speaker 3: Give me his catches and his yards again, seventy five
- 27:34Speaker 3: for fourteen hundred and eight touchdowns.
- 27:35Speaker 6: Do you know how many catches it took on on
- 27:37Speaker 6: Rossing Brown to get the fourteen hundred yards last year?
- 27:39Speaker 6: I have no idea one hundred and seventeen. Yeah, and
- 27:42Speaker 6: he's an explosive player.
- 27:44Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 27:44Speaker 4: I mean again, I'm not trying to battle threat. I'm
- 27:48Speaker 4: not trying to battle you guys on on explosiveness. I've
- 27:51Speaker 4: said it from the very get gun. I guess my
- 27:53Speaker 4: question is how do you define who your number one
- 27:56Speaker 4: receiver is? And in the process of doing this, as
- 27:59Speaker 4: we welcome Jad to Denver, and trust me, we all
- 28:02Speaker 4: should welcome him.
- 28:03Speaker 3: I think he's gonna be great. What do you mean
- 28:05Speaker 3: to go to the airport with a sign welcome Jalen
- 28:08Speaker 3: love bo Hy.
- 28:10Speaker 4: Wouldn't be surprised if he shows up at a Nuggets
- 28:12Speaker 4: game with his buddy PS two this week goes to
- 28:15Speaker 4: a lot of Nuggets games. That'd be cool, and I
- 28:17Speaker 4: would not be surprised one bit. I'm hoping he shows
- 28:19Speaker 4: up by Friday night.
- 28:20Speaker 3: But I just want for all.
- 28:22Speaker 4: Of you who don't understand what this argument is about.
- 28:24Speaker 4: It's not an argument about how good this kid is.
- 28:26Speaker 3: He's really good.
- 28:27Speaker 4: It's an argument about what do you define as the
- 28:29Speaker 4: number one receiver? And I don't know how many of
- 28:30Speaker 4: you what don't you understand here? This doesn't just make
- 28:34Speaker 4: Cortland Sutton go bye bye. He's still your top possession receiver.
- 28:39Speaker 7: Okay?
- 28:39Speaker 5: Would this apply? What a number one might not be this?
- 28:42Speaker 5: If you're the opposing defensive coordinator, who are you game
- 28:45Speaker 5: planning more around?
- 28:47Speaker 4: Would that to find it?
- 28:49Speaker 5: What do you mean if you're if you're game if
- 28:51Speaker 5: you're game planning to stop the opposing offense and you're like,
- 28:54Speaker 5: we gotta shut down their pass game and we got
- 28:56Speaker 5: to take out a wide receiver, I would probably.
- 28:58Speaker 7: Looking to take out Waddle.
- 28:59Speaker 4: Well, well, I guess we'll see it on the field.
- 29:02Speaker 4: Who are they gonna bracket more and double more?
- 29:04Speaker 3: Yeah?
- 29:05Speaker 5: Yeah, And that's why vic all I'm telling you is
- 29:07Speaker 5: I don't know yet, because I think there is an
- 29:10Speaker 5: opportunity where Walald could be like a ninety catch guy
- 29:13Speaker 5: in this offense.
- 29:14Speaker 3: And if he's that, then he's probably your number one.
- 29:16Speaker 3: A lot of that is dependent too on the quarterback
- 29:18Speaker 3: or is he going to go with the ball? Of course?
- 29:20Speaker 4: You know the beauty of a Corland Sutton and the
- 29:23Speaker 4: reason why I will never ever underrate a guy like him,
- 29:27Speaker 4: and I frankly I think he should get the ball more.
- 29:30Speaker 4: The fact that he didn't get targeted in that divisional
- 29:32Speaker 4: game and in that AFC West chap or that AFC
- 29:35Speaker 4: Championship game is beyond me. Even if he's covered, give
- 29:38Speaker 4: him the ball, do you know what I mean? But
- 29:41Speaker 4: remember how many times Mike Evans get the ball even
- 29:43Speaker 4: when he's covered. Yeah, all the time. That's the beauty
- 29:46Speaker 4: of a big body like that. He'll he'll be able
- 29:49Speaker 4: to get to the ball high point it adjust his
- 29:54Speaker 4: body on the sideline.
- 29:56Speaker 6: Yeah, Novic, I'm looking around here. Why the why the
- 30:00Speaker 6: hell did Puka Nakua slide to five? Why did he
- 30:03Speaker 6: go to in the fifth because.
- 30:05Speaker 3: He ran only a four to six forty? Who gives
- 30:08Speaker 3: a rats rip?
- 30:09Speaker 4: Well, you're asking why you dropped, that's why. That's why.
- 30:13Speaker 5: Reminder to you, guys, the keyword for this hour is water.
- 30:16Speaker 5: So text set your first and last name to three zero,
- 30:18Speaker 5: three five four nine two five gets in the building
- 30:20Speaker 5: for the Utah game next Friday. But we continue our
- 30:24Speaker 5: drop tournament in the Moser region the eight versus nine
- 30:28Speaker 5: matchup again. We give one of these at the end
- 30:30Speaker 5: of every segment and you vote right then in there.
- 30:33Speaker 4: Through text, who moves on the eighth seed?
- 30:36Speaker 6: Is the whole is greater than the some of their part?
- 30:39Speaker 6: How do you say that some of the parts is
- 30:41Speaker 6: greater than Yeah? Lost, maks mad damn it Vic.
- 30:45Speaker 3: Help, I'm not paying attention to teeth in your mouth.
- 30:49Speaker 3: What was the question?
- 30:50Speaker 4: Some is greater than the doesn't know the sum is
- 30:53Speaker 4: greater than.
- 30:54Speaker 3: The equal of its parts. Oh wait, wait, the parts
- 30:58Speaker 3: are equal to the sum of their great some is
- 31:01Speaker 3: greater than the parts.
- 31:02Speaker 6: The whole is more valuable parts than the individual parts
- 31:06Speaker 6: that make it up.
- 31:06Speaker 3: I was right, Yeah, sure you were.
- 31:10Speaker 4: We still haven't gotten that time to this day.
- 31:13Speaker 3: Right now. What is it?
- 31:15Speaker 7: I can't say it. I don't even want to talk
- 31:16Speaker 7: about it.
- 31:17Speaker 3: S is equal to the whole of their parts. That's
- 31:21Speaker 3: going against the nine seed, which is bick.
- 31:24Speaker 6: Whatever is in your mouth, choke it down to have
- 31:26Speaker 6: a question to ask you.
- 31:28Speaker 3: I just jok two pills and they got jammed in
- 31:31Speaker 3: my well. A lot of things probably get jammed.
- 31:35Speaker 6: Just whatever whatever's in your mouth, choke it down.
- 31:38Speaker 7: I have a question to ask you.
- 31:39Speaker 3: Please. You know there are kids who listening to the show.
- 31:44Speaker 4: I had a young lady last night at the Nuggets game.
- 31:46Speaker 4: She lives in night shout Out. I can't remember her name,
- 31:50Speaker 4: but lovely young lady. She must have been a young
- 31:53Speaker 4: teenager listens to the show daily, can quote the show.
- 31:56Speaker 3: Just remember the audience. So if you want the some
- 32:00Speaker 3: of the parts to move on, text some the parts
- 32:03Speaker 3: are equal to the some of the greats, or if
- 32:06Speaker 3: you want the other one to move on, you text jam. Well,
- 32:10Speaker 3: a lot of things probably get j okay three zho
- 32:16Speaker 3: three five four nine two five.
- 32:18Speaker 4: We'll see what moves on back after this.
- 32:19Speaker 5: Hey, so I wasn't able to watch the whole game yesterday,
- 32:22Speaker 5: but I got I.
- 32:24Speaker 3: Was tuned in at about the seventh inning of.
- 32:27Speaker 5: The WBC Championship and the US team is being one
- 32:32Speaker 5: hit by Venezuela.
- 32:33Speaker 3: At that point.
- 32:35Speaker 5: Bryce Harper drops a bomb in the eighth inning to
- 32:37Speaker 5: tie things up two to two, and you're like, all right,
- 32:39Speaker 5: maybe that's all they needed to get this thing through.
- 32:41Speaker 5: And then Eugenio Suarez HiT's a double in the left
- 32:46Speaker 5: center gap to score a run on the top of
- 32:48Speaker 5: the ninth for Venezuela, and that's how the game ends.
- 32:51Speaker 5: Venezuela ends up being champions of the WBC. Now, I
- 32:58Speaker 5: do have an issue with the way this was handled.
- 33:02Speaker 5: And here's what I mean. What I saw a quote
- 33:05Speaker 5: from the manager, Mark Duros after the game, and I
- 33:10Speaker 5: just brought this guy up the other day. Mason Miller
- 33:13Speaker 5: is amazing relief pitcher for the Padres. He is in
- 33:18Speaker 5: his last fifty batters that he has faced, dating back
- 33:21Speaker 5: to the regular season of the MLB last year, nobody's
- 33:26Speaker 5: gotten a hit off him. They're zero for fifty with
- 33:28Speaker 5: thirty nine strikeouts.
- 33:29Speaker 7: I was waiting for him.
- 33:30Speaker 3: Where was he?
- 33:31Speaker 5: This game is now tied two to two going in
- 33:33Speaker 5: the top of the ninth, and they did not put
- 33:35Speaker 5: in Mason Miller. The guy they did put in gives
- 33:39Speaker 5: up the double that ends up losing them the game
- 33:42Speaker 5: mark is that whitlock?
- 33:44Speaker 7: Yes.
- 33:45Speaker 5: Mark DeRosa on why he didn't use Mason Miller, he said,
- 33:49Speaker 5: I was honoring the Padres. Had we taken the lead,
- 33:52Speaker 5: he was coming in, but it wasn't going to bring
- 33:54Speaker 5: him into a tie game. And here's my beef, You're
- 33:59Speaker 5: either play baseball or you're not.
- 34:01Speaker 4: Okay.
- 34:02Speaker 5: Like, I hate that, especially the US. It feels like,
- 34:06Speaker 5: more than the other countries in this thing, we're so
- 34:11Speaker 5: careful about win using pitchers and how many pitches are
- 34:16Speaker 5: they throwing? Like most it would be like if the
- 34:19Speaker 5: Four Nations comes along and it's like, well, mckinnony, no want.
- 34:22Speaker 3: To just go back to the Olympics a couple of.
- 34:24Speaker 5: Weeks ago, But I don't want to do the Olympics
- 34:25Speaker 5: because it's not this isn't the Olympics, Like maybe that
- 34:28Speaker 5: would be difference.
- 34:29Speaker 6: I mean, this is their answer to it. Essentially, they
- 34:32Speaker 6: have the Olympics, They're gonna have it. Do major League
- 34:34Speaker 6: players play in the Olympics.
- 34:36Speaker 3: I mean, Bryce Harper. Nobody's talking about like they're gonna
- 34:39Speaker 3: be in it.
- 34:39Speaker 7: It's right in the middle of the season. So here's the.
- 34:42Speaker 5: Thing, you player, You don't Mason Miller comes in in
- 34:47Speaker 5: a tie game. If you're trying to win a championship,
- 34:50Speaker 5: you bring him in the top of the ninth. Shut
- 34:51Speaker 5: the door, get to the bottom of the ninth, try
- 34:53Speaker 5: and scratch across the run, win the gold.
- 34:56Speaker 7: But can you imagine John Cooper going You know.
- 35:00Speaker 5: Now, McKinnon played yesterday, he can't play today, Yeah, exactly,
- 35:03Speaker 5: you know, watch, I'm gonna I'm gonna hold him down
- 35:05Speaker 5: to twelve minutes today.
- 35:07Speaker 3: Okay, today? Is that it's not yesterday?
- 35:10Speaker 4: You know I'm talking about though, It's like it's ridiculous. Yeah,
- 35:13Speaker 4: we can bicker about this stuff, but this is what
- 35:15Speaker 4: makes this the wc PC very interesting. What's that WBC?
- 35:20Speaker 4: You forget the bee, oh, one.
- 35:22Speaker 3: Of the bees. What makes it interesting is that.
- 35:26Speaker 4: It happens before the start of the season and you're
- 35:28Speaker 4: dealing with such things as pitch count. So do you
- 35:31Speaker 4: get the best quality? Do you get the I don't know.
- 35:35Speaker 4: All I know is this judging from what I saw
- 35:38Speaker 4: in the field, it felt to me like Venezuela wanted
- 35:41Speaker 4: it more.
- 35:41Speaker 3: We've heard that shom before.
- 35:42Speaker 4: Yeah, right now, that's one.
- 35:45Speaker 5: I think the US has taken incremental steps forward in
- 35:48Speaker 5: their care about this thing, but they're still far behind Venezuela.
- 35:52Speaker 3: Swats was crying at the end of the game.
- 35:54Speaker 5: Acuna was talking about how I love it Landa and
- 35:57Speaker 5: I want to win them a World Series, but this
- 35:59Speaker 5: is the crown achievement of my career and it always
- 36:01Speaker 5: will be.
- 36:02Speaker 4: Like that's how much they cared about it.
- 36:03Speaker 3: Very quick story.
- 36:04Speaker 4: So last night, the Nuggets game's over after the first quarter,
- 36:07Speaker 4: so I'm not even paying attention to it, to be
- 36:08Speaker 4: honest with you, and I'm hosting the postgame show, but
- 36:10Speaker 4: I'm just trying one eye on the Nuggets game.
- 36:12Speaker 3: They're in cruise Control.
- 36:14Speaker 6: I did see I did well, Dempsey. Was you guys
- 36:17Speaker 6: dressed down a little bit? I saw you take all
- 36:18Speaker 6: your stuff off because.
- 36:19Speaker 3: It was hot up there. Oh.
- 36:21Speaker 4: Anyway, so I'm watching the WBC. I'm watching every single pitch,
- 36:26Speaker 4: and I'm watching it. You know in that area where
- 36:28Speaker 4: we do the show their motion. What's that area though?
- 36:30Speaker 3: It's the Colorado social stage area. Yeah. Social. So i'mber short.
- 36:35Speaker 4: Back in the kitchen there, and there's a good twenty
- 36:38Speaker 4: people that work in that kitchen, big kitchen. Every once
- 36:43Speaker 4: in a while, two or three people would come out
- 36:45Speaker 4: and watch some of the baseball and I'd sit there
- 36:48Speaker 4: and I'd watch with them, and they're cheering for the
- 36:51Speaker 4: Venezuelan team. And there's some folks who work in the
- 36:54Speaker 4: kitchen that are native Venezuelans, and they're cheering loudly at
- 36:57Speaker 4: this point, and they're almost embarrassed to cheer because they.
- 37:00Speaker 3: Don't want to, you know, they don't want to be
- 37:01Speaker 3: too loud.
- 37:01Speaker 4: But at the same time, so I start watching with them,
- 37:04Speaker 4: asking questions. You know, I did not know, and this
- 37:09Speaker 4: is the stupid to me. I did not know that
- 37:10Speaker 4: Venezuela considered baseball the utmost important sport in that country.
- 37:16Speaker 4: Oh yeah, I still thought soccer reigned supreme.
- 37:19Speaker 3: I didn't know that.
- 37:21Speaker 4: This guy's telling me the history of baseball and how
- 37:23Speaker 4: important it is growing up there and this and that.
- 37:26Speaker 4: So there's a collection of these dudes who are in
- 37:28Speaker 4: the kitchen who are watching this game in between what
- 37:32Speaker 4: they're doing back and forth, and I could sense the
- 37:35Speaker 4: pride is when Venezuela won it, Oh.
- 37:38Speaker 3: My god, they were so happy.
- 37:41Speaker 4: It meant more for them, for sure, it meant more.
- 37:46Speaker 3: It just did.
- 37:47Speaker 5: It felt like the US was almost trying to fake
- 37:50Speaker 5: their care by the end of it.
- 37:52Speaker 4: When Aaron Judge says this is going to mean more to.
- 37:55Speaker 5: Me than a World Series, It's like, yeah, I don't
- 37:56Speaker 5: know if I totally buy that from you, bro.
- 37:58Speaker 3: By the way, by the way, something four three kas
- 38:02Speaker 3: Zeke Tovar. Yeah, good for Zeke.
- 38:05Speaker 7: Dude.
- 38:06Speaker 6: If this is the highlight of his year, then I'm
- 38:08Speaker 6: okay with it. I mean, he was two for four
- 38:11Speaker 6: in the championship.
- 38:12Speaker 5: You know what he hit during the turn? He hit
- 38:14Speaker 5: four seventy one during this entire thing. Z.
- 38:18Speaker 7: She's teeing off on non major dudes. But that's good.
- 38:22Speaker 3: There's major leaguers all over the place.
- 38:24Speaker 7: Well yeah, but I mean not everybody.
- 38:25Speaker 3: They played Japan.
- 38:26Speaker 7: Oh, Israel's full of major leaguers.
- 38:29Speaker 3: Dude, he played Japan the US.
- 38:31Speaker 7: It's a lot of chuck you baseball guys.
- 38:35Speaker 3: I totally disagree, okay, but yes, good for Zeke. Zeke
- 38:40Speaker 3: was excellent during this entire thing.
- 38:42Speaker 5: But I just it's so weird whenever these international sports
- 38:49Speaker 5: come along and you get these these matchups where the
- 38:52Speaker 5: US is in it. Like hockey's different most because it's
- 38:55Speaker 5: one of the rare occasions where the US is the
- 38:57Speaker 5: underdog and I guess they're still really.
- 39:00Speaker 3: Good, but they aren't as good on paper as Canada.
- 39:03Speaker 4: We all know it.
- 39:04Speaker 5: So when they play against Canada, like there's a lot
- 39:06Speaker 5: of like extra juice to it, because it's like, hey man,
- 39:09Speaker 5: we can pull an upset here. In basketball, when they
- 39:12Speaker 5: play in the Olympics, it's not so much it's not
- 39:16Speaker 5: the joy of winning a gold. It's the fear of
- 39:19Speaker 5: embarrassment of not Yeah, it's.
- 39:21Speaker 7: Like if we don't come home, we don't come home
- 39:22Speaker 7: with it.
- 39:23Speaker 3: Right. In basketball, all you're trying to do is tell
- 39:25Speaker 3: people that you're still the big dog. Yeah, you're still
- 39:28Speaker 3: the big dog.
- 39:29Speaker 4: In these other sports, perhaps it's not the case. But
- 39:31Speaker 4: I one hundred percent agree with you on this notion, Brett,
- 39:34Speaker 4: because I noticed the same thing here you are in
- 39:37Speaker 4: the eighth inning when all hope looks lost. You couldn't
- 39:40Speaker 4: manufacture anything. You couldn't get a guy past first base. Yeah,
- 39:44Speaker 4: you couldn't get a guy in scoring position for crying
- 39:47Speaker 4: out loud. That's how bad your offense was last night.
- 39:50Speaker 4: So Bryce Harper saves your butt. He goes long.
- 39:54Speaker 3: Man, was that a hit?
- 39:55Speaker 4: He goes long ties the game. Here's your chance to pounce.
- 40:00Speaker 4: You put Mason Miller on that hill and get to
- 40:02Speaker 4: the bottom of the ninth.
- 40:04Speaker 5: If if you're too concerned with your guy giving me
- 40:09Speaker 5: an extra twenty pitches in this tournament, then don't let
- 40:12Speaker 5: him go at all.
- 40:13Speaker 3: See I think that's the way I think about it.
- 40:15Speaker 6: If I comment on this, all the youngs are gonna go,
- 40:17Speaker 6: oh yeah, what say it? If I say Nolan Ryan
- 40:23Speaker 6: threw until his arm fell off and it never did.
- 40:25Speaker 3: By the way, you're.
- 40:27Speaker 6: Bubble wrapping these guys before the season begins.
- 40:31Speaker 3: That's a problem with the WBC Big babies.
- 40:33Speaker 4: Hyt Hyatt. Dan Hyde's a big baseball guy, does a
- 40:36Speaker 4: lot of stats. He says Miller, Mason Miller was on
- 40:39Speaker 4: a restriction from Padres Bass Brass. All these guys had
- 40:42Speaker 4: these restrictions, and they had to negotiate with pitchers and
- 40:46Speaker 4: their agents and the teams before the WB.
- 40:49Speaker 3: Then don't go which is.
- 40:50Speaker 4: This is what I'm getting at.
- 40:51Speaker 5: When Durosa says, why did Mason Miller pitch? I can't
- 40:54Speaker 5: even blame him. He said, I had to honor the
- 40:56Speaker 5: Padres and what they basically what they told me.
- 41:02Speaker 4: You know what, why this game is why I'm getting that.
- 41:05Speaker 4: Why are we doing this chart?
- 41:07Speaker 3: I do away with it? Do what. It's stupid.
- 41:10Speaker 4: If if you if you're telling me you have a
- 41:12Speaker 4: team and you can't use players because of this little
- 41:17Speaker 4: unspoken agreement, then you're not playing a real game.
- 41:21Speaker 3: I totally agree with you.
- 41:22Speaker 5: It's like, if that's the case, then don't play these
- 41:24Speaker 5: guys at all.
- 41:25Speaker 3: Like scoop Ball goes.
- 41:26Speaker 5: In, he throws in one game early in the tournament,
- 41:29Speaker 5: and he goes that's it for me to see you later.
- 41:31Speaker 5: There's no point to you being here. Why were you
- 41:33Speaker 5: on the roster at all? I don't get it. Anyway,
- 41:37Speaker 5: Let's get to another match up here in the Moser
- 41:40Speaker 5: region today of our drop tournament, the.
- 41:44Speaker 3: Five versus twelve, the five seed is that this is.
- 41:49Speaker 7: Like what's his face? Lord samarn just whacked off?
- 41:55Speaker 8: What did you pause?
- 42:06Speaker 5: It was a pretty big pause right down whacked off?
- 42:14Speaker 7: Uh coming good?
- 42:15Speaker 3: Now that that's egregious.
- 42:17Speaker 7: There's no there's no need for that.
- 42:19Speaker 3: Uh that goes against the twelve seed, which is, yeah,
- 42:21Speaker 3: it's gonna be seventy five today.
- 42:23Speaker 4: Nice, good for you.
- 42:26Speaker 6: With myself, I play with myself a lot, so I
- 42:30Speaker 6: have no problem, you know, going out there just banging
- 42:32Speaker 6: the ball around.
- 42:34Speaker 3: God.
- 42:36Speaker 6: So if you want you're taking stuff that's out of context.
- 42:40Speaker 7: I'm talking about playing golf alone.
- 42:42Speaker 3: I could have said it better.
- 42:43Speaker 5: Yes, if you want the five seed to move on,
- 42:46Speaker 5: text whack whacked off.
- 42:49Speaker 3: If you want the twelve seed to move on, text play.
- 42:53Speaker 3: I play with myself a lot.
- 42:55Speaker 4: I mean, it is an audible medium. So maybe if
- 42:59Speaker 4: you said you could explain yourself, Petter, nobody would be
- 43:05Speaker 4: listening but yourself. That's it.
- 43:08Speaker 5: Uh So three oh three, five oh four oh nine
- 43:10Speaker 5: two five text those in on the shop moss the
- 43:13Speaker 5: text line one price, one person, one hour back after
- 43:16Speaker 5: this
