  [SPEAKER_01]: It's kind of worked out for the calves, so I would say act accordingly.

• 2:39
  [SPEAKER_00]: Uh, yeah, I, yeah, it would be three.
• 2:41
  [SPEAKER_01]: I mean, I guess if you count the first one of him going to Miami, and then he didn't come here, then he did come here.
• 2:50
  [SPEAKER_01]: then he he left for the lakers.
• 2:52
  [SPEAKER_01]: I don't count that like when he left here, we all knew where he was going.
• 2:55
  [SPEAKER_01]: So I think this is version 3.0 of the bronze being available and people wondering where he's going to go.
• 3:01
  [SPEAKER_01]: Now, the big news coming out yesterday was Shams, Charania, who's about tied in as anybody could be from ESPN.
• 3:07
  [SPEAKER_01]: He says it's down to three teams.
• 3:08
  [SPEAKER_01]: He thinks it's down to Miami, Cleveland, and the 76ers.
• 3:12
  [SPEAKER_01]: Now, Shams did say he feels like the calves are in the lead.
• 3:15
  [SPEAKER_01]: So, so.
• 3:16
  [SPEAKER_01]: doesn't real quick mess, right?
• 3:17
  [SPEAKER_00]: Please, no, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we
• 3:32
  [SPEAKER_00]: To me, that I understand you don't know Joellen B.
• 3:35
  [SPEAKER_00]: He's never healthy.
• 3:36
  [SPEAKER_00]: Correct.
• 3:36
  [SPEAKER_00]: But you got him.
• 3:37
  [SPEAKER_00]: You got Jalen Brown.
• 3:38
  [SPEAKER_00]: You got Tyre Smaxi.
• 3:40
  [SPEAKER_00]: You got Vijay Edge comb and I'm not saying that's as good as like maybe the Warriors were of course when Kevin Durant joined.
• 3:46
  [SPEAKER_00]: But that's a damn good team where he's instantly the favorite of him.
• 3:49
  [SPEAKER_01]: So you're saying they're different than the other two because they're ahead of.
• 3:52
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
• 3:52
  [SPEAKER_01]: What's in Miami?
• 3:53
  [SPEAKER_01]: I mean, I'll listen to that.
• 3:54
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I mean, I'll tell you the one that I don't understand is Miami.
• 4:02
  [SPEAKER_01]: and chariot it's him hardaway junior who by the way did you see his dad won't let it over his is retired jersey I don't know what they're back around the time that that just but shade later value optics scumbag like you're a reason I don't know I don't know I don't imagine a world not letting you somewhere you know there are a team hardaway senior said that's my legacy
• 4:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: Okay, and your kid is also your legacy and I also just think wouldn't that help your son In some Jersey sales when's last time that number's been available?
• 4:35
  [SPEAKER_00]: You don't have a Tim hardaway junior jersey.
• 4:37
  [SPEAKER_01]: I don't know.
• 4:38
  [SPEAKER_01]: Sorry.
• 4:38
  [SPEAKER_01]: Sorry to the math.
• 4:39
  [SPEAKER_01]: I didn't know where he played last.
• 4:40
  [SPEAKER_01]: He was a math, right?
• 4:42
  [SPEAKER_01]: Like I that one was weird to me, but Miami.
• 4:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: It is literally bam in yonness Who are good players?
• 4:50
  [SPEAKER_01]: I could take a shot at bam.
• 4:52
  [SPEAKER_01]: I
• 4:55
  [SPEAKER_01]: a little bit of stat pad, and I think going on with him, he's got nobody down there, and especially for that combo, when is LeBron at his best?
• 5:02
  [SPEAKER_01]: And I know LeBron's a different version of LeBron than he is right now.
• 5:04
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's when he has a point guard.
• 5:07
  [SPEAKER_00]: Here's the thing, do the point guard rankings of those teams.
• 5:10
  [SPEAKER_00]: They're loud.
• 5:10
  [SPEAKER_00]: Here's the thing I'll say about the heat mat is Yannis probably, I actually scratch probably will be the best player LeBron ever played with.
• 5:19
  [SPEAKER_00]: Correct.
• 5:24
  [SPEAKER_01]: Ooh, I think, yes.
• 5:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: Well, do you count Luka?
• 5:28
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, this is better than Luka.
• 5:30
  [SPEAKER_01]: Ooh, I don't think that's what I'm taking it all.
• 5:32
  [SPEAKER_01]: Well, okay, one of them does have an MVP, the other one does.
• 5:35
  [SPEAKER_01]: And I'll get you got to do his cruise to regular season.
• 5:38
  [SPEAKER_01]: And you got on the front, it's probably a player, you see.
• 5:39
  [SPEAKER_00]: LeBron's probably playing about 50 games anyway through the regular season.
• 5:42
  [SPEAKER_00]: Right, LeBron's, if you're LeBron, you just thinking, I got to get to the playoff, that's all I got to do.
• 5:47
  [SPEAKER_00]: And then I get Janis and Bam in the playoffs.
• 5:50
  [SPEAKER_01]: but also we've talked about their expulsion by the way.
• 5:53
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's another factor.
• 5:54
  [SPEAKER_00]: You're not wrong.
• 5:54
  [SPEAKER_01]: That is very important.
• 5:55
  [SPEAKER_01]: Maybe the best coach in the NBA.
• 5:57
  [SPEAKER_00]: Well, you'd be the best coach in the three.
• 5:58
  [SPEAKER_00]: I believe the best coach in the NBA, honestly.
• 6:00
  [SPEAKER_00]: For what he's done with that squad.
• 6:01
  [SPEAKER_00]: Kerr him.
• 6:02
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
• 6:03
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
• 6:04
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'll listen to that.
• 6:05
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, you're probably right.
• 6:06
  [SPEAKER_01]: That is just 100% a factor.
• 6:08
  [SPEAKER_01]: And the same thing that Filly doesn't have against Miami and Cleveland, he's played there before a lot of the same people are still in the front office or at least ownership is about the same like Pat Riley still there, Kobe Altman still here.
• 6:22
  [SPEAKER_01]: Those are all factors that help over Filly.
• 6:24
  [SPEAKER_01]: But I just think about if LeBron has to play the four, which we've talked about, that's Janis's spot.
• 6:29
  [SPEAKER_01]: You can't bump him to five, that's BAM's spot.
• 6:31
  [SPEAKER_01]: Like they're just too big.
• 6:32
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's too, it's too lopsided.
• 6:35
  [SPEAKER_01]: on how you have that roster set up.
• 6:37
  [SPEAKER_01]: Now, you are right.
• 6:38
  [SPEAKER_01]: I think silly and the calves have the best even spread talent.
• 6:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: We've got guards, we've got bigs, we've got some shooting, but that's where the rosters are a little bit better there.
• 6:54
  [SPEAKER_01]: The thing is, it's going to come down to which feels like all of these teams have been given a task.
• 7:01
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's like playing a video game like you have to finish this mission and then you get LeBron.
• 7:05
  [SPEAKER_01]: It sounds like Rich Paul is meeting with these teams and saying, yeah, LeBron will come here if you do this move and whatever that move might be.
• 7:14
  [SPEAKER_01]: Some people think for the calves, it's trading Jared Allen, trading Jared Allen for what?
• 7:20
  [SPEAKER_01]: When LeBron was in his prime,
• 7:22
  [SPEAKER_01]: You do whatever you need to do to get LeBron.
• 7:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: You pay James Jones.
• 7:28
  [SPEAKER_01]: You give Mike Miller a contract.
• 7:31
  [SPEAKER_01]: You trade for Kyle Corver.
• 7:33
  [SPEAKER_01]: You do whatever LeBron wants when he was in his prime.
• 7:38
  [SPEAKER_01]: We're not there anymore.
• 7:40
  [SPEAKER_01]: And I'm going to give LeBron credit and benefit of the doubt that I think he also realizes this at this point of his career.
• 7:48
  [SPEAKER_01]: So I would imagine his requests of these trades, which maybe isn't even a true thing.
• 7:52
  [SPEAKER_01]: I don't know, maybe I'm making stuff up.
• 7:53
  [SPEAKER_01]: I won't be the first time.
• 7:55
  [SPEAKER_01]: But if these moves are more, this actually will help this team, right?
• 8:00
  [SPEAKER_01]: Like we think this is going to be the move to help the team.
• 8:07
  [SPEAKER_01]: minus one thing.
• 8:11
  [SPEAKER_01]: If the bronze comes to the calves, say, I'll come back and I'll play, but you trade for Anthony Davis.
• 8:23
  [SPEAKER_01]: No.
• 8:23
  [SPEAKER_01]: We appreciate your consideration here.
• 8:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: If that is a requirement, we're going to pull ourselves out of this race.
• 8:32
  [SPEAKER_01]: I would give up on getting LeBron if it
• 8:38
  [SPEAKER_01]: Hell no.
• 8:39
  [SPEAKER_01]: Over my dead body don't do that.
• 8:42
  [SPEAKER_01]: Absolutely not.
• 8:44
  [SPEAKER_01]: No, no, no, no, no.
• 8:47
  [SPEAKER_01]: Anthony Davis.
• 8:49
  [SPEAKER_01]: Who for what now?
• 8:50
  [SPEAKER_01]: Three years has been off injured.
• 8:53
  [SPEAKER_01]: Day to Davis.
• 8:56
  [SPEAKER_01]: $54 million next year, 58 the year after that, and a player option for nearly 63 million dollars.
• 9:07
  [SPEAKER_01]: Absolutely not.
• 9:10
  [SPEAKER_01]: No.
• 9:14
  [SPEAKER_01]: Even if that was the breaking point of not getting LeBron, I want Bron back here so bad.
• 9:20
  [SPEAKER_01]: If that is the requirement, you just pull out of this race right now, don't even bother with it.
• 9:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: Well, what do you have to give up to get him that beyond what you're going to have to give up.
• 9:30
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm just talking contract.
• 9:31
  [SPEAKER_01]: You are going to be saddled with all my money.
• 9:35
  [SPEAKER_01]: 170 million dollars, right?
• 9:37
  [SPEAKER_00]: But we don't care about money.
• 9:38
  [SPEAKER_01]: I, what do you know, no, no, no, no, you can't do that.
• 9:41
  [SPEAKER_01]: Not in today's NBA, absolutely not.
• 9:43
  [SPEAKER_00]: But you get brought in a day, you, you, you might, what are you going to want to chip that?
• 9:48
  [SPEAKER_01]: See, that's the thing.
• 9:49
  [SPEAKER_01]: I would love to say that I can't, I can't say that.
• 9:53
  [SPEAKER_00]: But, but to be fair, what did you just do?
• 9:56
  [SPEAKER_00]: You just signed your future with Donovan.
• 9:58
  [SPEAKER_00]: We'll talk Donovan, Mitch.
• 9:59
  [SPEAKER_00]: You got to air excited about it.
• 10:00
  [SPEAKER_00]: You got to win your championship with them here.
• 10:01
  [SPEAKER_00]: Like I'm glad he's locked up for the next couple of years.
• 10:03
  [SPEAKER_01]: Right.
• 10:04
  [SPEAKER_00]: What, when I was go, go, go, go, panty, Davis.
• 10:06
  [SPEAKER_00]: If it means LeBron comes home.
• 10:07
  [SPEAKER_00]: No, no, I mentioned Mobley and Davis in the front court.
• 10:10
  [SPEAKER_01]: No, no, no, no, no.
• 10:12
  [SPEAKER_01]: You want to go get Kyre's shirt, Kyre's at 3640 and 42.
• 10:17
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'll get Kyrie.
• 10:18
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'd love to go get Kyrie.
• 10:20
  [SPEAKER_01]: That back court couldn't stop anything, but it'd be fun to watch on offense.
• 10:24
  [SPEAKER_01]: If only we could do line subs like in hockey where they shoot the ball and then like Dennis Schroeder runs on the court and Kyrie runs off and then they just flip on out.
• 10:33
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'd be fine with that.
• 10:34
  [SPEAKER_01]: They're not going to be able to stop anybody.
• 10:35
  [SPEAKER_01]: But the offense would be fun.
• 10:37
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'd go get Kyrie.
• 10:38
  [SPEAKER_01]: I wanted Roo, that's done.
• 10:40
  [SPEAKER_01]: I would have been interested in eight, eight, and that's done.
• 10:46
  [SPEAKER_01]: What?
• 10:47
  [SPEAKER_01]: LeBron.
• 10:48
  [SPEAKER_01]: There's not many guys out there still available at this point.
• 10:51
  [SPEAKER_01]: The Emmy off season for his quick and as fast as was, was there a 16 trade or something like that?
• 10:55
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yes, there you see that.
• 10:56
  [SPEAKER_01]: I mean, at this point, if Brian joins, everybody, it sounds like Jared Allen's gone one way or another.
• 11:04
  [SPEAKER_01]: But for what?
• 11:07
  [SPEAKER_01]: For what?
• 11:08
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's my, this is my question.
• 11:10
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm not trading Jared Allen for, for Anthony Davis.
• 11:13
  [SPEAKER_01]: What?
• 11:14
  [SPEAKER_01]: No, absolutely.
• 11:14
  [SPEAKER_01]: Why?
• 11:15
  [SPEAKER_01]: You know that I am not a huge Jared Allen guy.
• 11:18
  [SPEAKER_01]: You know that.
• 11:19
  [SPEAKER_00]: It's the contract, right?
• 11:21
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's the, it's the, you would sink this team.
• 11:27
  [SPEAKER_01]: for Donovan Mitchell's now going to be here for four more years.
• 11:30
  [SPEAKER_01]: If you brought Anthony Davis in, you're basically going, well, we're going to go for it this year, and then we're just going to have to trade you away in all the way for three more years.
• 11:37
  [SPEAKER_01]: But you have a lot of going on.
• 11:38
  [SPEAKER_01]: And then you have mobility locked up for now.
• 11:42
  [SPEAKER_01]: Right.
• 11:42
  [SPEAKER_01]: So I don't know if it would sink the ship.
• 11:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: You would have five Craig Porter juniors coming off the bench.
• 11:49
  [SPEAKER_01]: You would have no money to spend on anybody.
• 11:53
  [SPEAKER_01]: Whoa, I, fair point valid point, but who at this point are they gonna get?
• 11:57
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's what I'm saying.
• 11:59
  [SPEAKER_01]: I don't, I'm fine with this team as it's currently constructed just adding, Braun, I'd love that.
• 12:05
  [SPEAKER_01]: But the question is, is Braun gonna like that?
• 12:07
  [SPEAKER_00]: You take in Kominga?
• 12:08
  [SPEAKER_00]: I love Jonathan Kominga here.
• 12:09
  [SPEAKER_00]: Skrill saying, Lakers, trying to get Kominga to do it to your deal.
• 12:12
  [SPEAKER_01]: Appreciate Skrill, I'm sure they are.
• 12:14
  [SPEAKER_01]: There's scramble in man, Kavan Looney, okay.
• 12:17
  [SPEAKER_01]: I would have kept dating, but what do I know?
• 12:19
  [SPEAKER_00]: That's NBA champion, Kavan Looney, by the way.
• 12:21
  [SPEAKER_01]: That is, there's just that clip of that love that Lucas threw to him, but he was on the other side.
• 12:27
  [SPEAKER_01]: No, it's gone that's such a, Kavan Looney is a champion, and we did see him, you're right.
• 12:32
  [SPEAKER_01]: But like, you're right.
• 12:36
  [SPEAKER_01]: There's not much left to do.
• 12:38
  [SPEAKER_01]: So like that's where I don't know
• 12:41
  [SPEAKER_01]: Is LeBron sitting here trying to get like his boys back?
• 12:44
  [SPEAKER_01]: Like he used to go trade for stuff.
• 12:46
  [SPEAKER_01]: Do that.
• 12:47
  [UNKNOWN]: Come on.
• 12:48
  [SPEAKER_00]: I think it's in a roster spot for Braun Jr. Yeah, yeah, no, that's got to happen.
• 12:52
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's got to happen.
• 12:52
  [SPEAKER_00]: Do you think so?
• 12:53
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
• 12:54
  [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, yeah.
• 12:54
  [SPEAKER_01]: There was some, oh, man.
• 12:55
  [SPEAKER_01]: I heard it.
• 12:56
  [SPEAKER_01]: There was a clip.
• 12:57
  [SPEAKER_00]: Somebody had an outrageous day.
• 12:58
  [SPEAKER_00]: Is that confirmed?
• 13:00
  [SPEAKER_00]: Is that confirmed?
• 13:00
  [SPEAKER_00]: Matt, the reason I asked because I'm not buying it.
• 13:02
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
• 13:03
  [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, no.
• 13:04
  [SPEAKER_01]: There's a single.
• 13:05
  [SPEAKER_01]: There still needs one to find the place.
• 13:06
  [SPEAKER_01]: I think he'd like to, but also I'm with you.
• 13:09
  [SPEAKER_01]: They did it.
• 13:10
  [SPEAKER_01]: They played together.
• 13:11
  [SPEAKER_01]: They were the first father's son to do it and assist together.
• 13:14
  [SPEAKER_01]: They were the first father's son to do this and do I would listen to that over and I do think there's an element of bronze saying you're going to have to go your own way young man Like you're going to have to find your own way here.
• 13:24
  [SPEAKER_01]: I set you up the best you could I hung around until you got your guaranteed contract And we'll see if you can make it in the NBA in your own that that day is going to have to come forever.
• 13:32
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm with you I don't know if I would make that a requirement, but if it is
• 13:38
  [SPEAKER_01]: Sure, there was a insane take from somebody and I apologize who because they really should be outed for this It said the Lakers should hold brawny hostage and like whatever team gets LeBron require an unprotected first round pig to get for Nobody's doing that.
• 13:54
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's what I'm going to go shit that is Absolutely not Or on YouTube We don't negotiate with her is under one of the best underrated cameos all the time
• 14:06
  [SPEAKER_01]: is Tom Cruise.
• 14:07
  [SPEAKER_01]: Did you know that he went to the directors and he said he would only do that role if they let him ad lib and they gave him a hand prosthetics.
• 14:16
  [SPEAKER_00]: What what role are you talking about?
• 14:17
  [SPEAKER_00]: Tropic thunder.
• 14:18
  [SPEAKER_00]: That's what's talking about.
• 14:19
  [SPEAKER_00]: We don't negotiate with terrorists.
• 14:20
  [SPEAKER_00]: I was just being the term in general, but yeah.
• 14:22
  [SPEAKER_00]: I've just got mad.
• 14:23
  [SPEAKER_00]: I've been to that movie in the back of my ears.
• 14:25
  [SPEAKER_01]: In Matthew McConeys sitting there while he's yelling at him.
• 14:27
  [SPEAKER_01]: And you read dragon.
• 14:28
  [SPEAKER_01]: And he goes, I don't know what kind of pain Pacific player.
• 14:32
  [SPEAKER_01]: Oh my god, watch that.
• 14:33
  [SPEAKER_01]: See, it's hilarious.
• 14:33
  [SPEAKER_01]: All right, we're digressing it.
• 14:35
  [SPEAKER_01]: You don't negotiate with that.
• 14:36
  [SPEAKER_01]: if the lakers sit there and they go we're gonna hold up brownie i honestly i would actually think lebron would sit there and be like okay but here's another factor and i'm i'm gonna i'm gonna steal this to i think it was uh nick and john of that as a 93 is a great take go ahead and piss off rich paul
• 14:53
  [SPEAKER_01]: Go ahead.
• 14:54
  [SPEAKER_01]: You'll never get another deal done with any of his guys ever again.
• 14:57
  [SPEAKER_01]: Go ahead and piss off LeBron about that.
• 15:00
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's completely aside.
• 15:02
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'd take Brawny if you could make a trade for Kyrie Irving, I'd be in in that the only one that I'm completely and utterly out and against is Anthony Daves.
• 15:10
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's too much money and if he was healthy, we're having a different conversation.
• 15:14
  [SPEAKER_01]: When he's healthy, he is what Evan Mobile is supposed to be.
• 15:18
  [SPEAKER_01]: We're way past that.
• 15:20
  [SPEAKER_01]: And Anthony Davis is, is he not 33 years old?
• 15:23
  [SPEAKER_00]: I don't care.
• 15:24
  [SPEAKER_01]: Check that 33 years old.
• 15:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: You need to, I'm telling you, you need to.
• 15:28
  [SPEAKER_01]: Thank football, Murrow.
• 15:29
  [SPEAKER_01]: But it's, look at these teams that go in the tank when one guy gets hurt.
• 15:36
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's not, to football's credit when Joe Burrow gets hurt, your season is done.
• 15:39
  [SPEAKER_01]: The Marjaxons hurt, you're fried.
• 15:42
  [SPEAKER_01]: Basketball can't be that way.
• 15:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: Jason Tatum, he was out, Celtic still found a way.
• 15:49
  [SPEAKER_01]: And the thing is with this calves team, yeah, it's built by Donovan, and knock on wood.
• 15:55
  [SPEAKER_01]: Outside of him missing everything, including the playoffs.
• 15:58
  [SPEAKER_01]: Like if you got him back at some point, I still believe, minus Donovan Mitchell, this team has constructed with James Harden, and let's just say they get LeBron, that's a 45 to 50 win team easy.
• 16:09
  [SPEAKER_01]: Easy.
• 16:10
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's what you want to build, and you gotta be thinking about the money.
• 16:15
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's my thing on Anthony Dayby.
• 16:19
  [SPEAKER_01]: And also, everything that I had heard about the wizards, they were ecstatic to have him in Tray Young.
• 16:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: And so they really feel good about their rebuild.
• 16:28
  [SPEAKER_01]: Good, God, let them feel good about it.
• 16:30
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm out on Anthony Davis.
• 16:31
  [SPEAKER_01]: So we're waitin' on, Braun.
• 16:33
  [SPEAKER_01]: Let's see, waiting for, I don't know, see these teams, see what they're going to do or anything like that.
• 16:38
  [SPEAKER_01]: I didn't want to ask you this right before we turn our attention down Mitchell, do you feel that there's a world that there is that dark horse team?
• 16:44
  [SPEAKER_01]: So Shons comes out and says there's three.
• 16:46
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's Cleveland one and then he said, I think he said then Miami then Philadelphia.
• 16:51
  [SPEAKER_01]: So the golden state thing for all the money that came in on those prediction markets, that's gone.
• 16:57
  [SPEAKER_01]: My money is coming in on the prediction markets for Miami, by the way.
• 17:00
  [SPEAKER_01]: Uh, those things are dangerous.
• 17:01
  [SPEAKER_01]: Stay away from go to fandle.
• 17:03
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's where you want to be.
• 17:04
  [SPEAKER_01]: Those things scare me.
• 17:05
  [SPEAKER_01]: But those three, is there a dark horse that we're not talking about?
• 17:11
  [SPEAKER_00]: It, it's like, how do I pick one when I have sham saying it's really down to three teams?
• 17:16
  [SPEAKER_00]: But wouldn't that be the most lebron thing ever?
• 17:18
  [SPEAKER_00]: Why did they let that out curveball?
• 17:20
  [SPEAKER_00]: Why did they get that out?
• 17:21
  [SPEAKER_00]: I guess if I had to pick a dark horse,
• 17:26
  [SPEAKER_00]: And this would be strictly because his goal is, hey, I would win an NBA championship rather than, you know, have fun.
• 17:32
  [SPEAKER_00]: I guess I need still have fun in this place, which I'm about to say, but the nuggets, right, like playing with Nikolay Oakage Jamal Murray.
• 17:38
  [SPEAKER_00]: I think we'll brought this in that pretty seamlessly.
• 17:41
  [SPEAKER_00]: I think that gives him a good chance of winning the last.
• 17:42
  [SPEAKER_00]: But he wants to get out the West.
• 17:44
  [SPEAKER_00]: I would get out of the West.
• 17:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: But the East is going to be no cakewalk either.
• 17:47
  [SPEAKER_01]: Raptors are going to be better.
• 17:48
  [SPEAKER_01]: I do think the wizards are going to be better.
• 17:50
  [SPEAKER_01]: But you know, is there a good piss in?
• 17:57
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I don't see him going there.
• 17:59
  [SPEAKER_01]: Boston, oh no, you're not going.
• 18:01
  [SPEAKER_01]: I think you're talking about the piss and it's just overall.
• 18:02
  [SPEAKER_01]: I think they took advantage of a weird year.
• 18:04
  [SPEAKER_00]: I'm trying to think of Eastern teams that he would go to.
• 18:06
  [SPEAKER_01]: He would have gone, he came out and I agree with this.
• 18:08
  [SPEAKER_01]: He had a gone to the next if they hadn't won the championship.
• 18:11
  [SPEAKER_00]: And I guess I mean, another one.
• 18:12
  [SPEAKER_01]: Because if they wouldn't have won it, he would have gone there because it wouldn't have been seen as just joining their defending champions.
• 18:17
  [SPEAKER_00]: I don't think New York was the people talking about Minnesota.
• 18:19
  [SPEAKER_00]: Which LeBron is the best.
• 18:21
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, that would probably be an interesting one too.
• 18:23
  [SPEAKER_01]: But let me imagine.
• 18:24
  [SPEAKER_00]: That is the most star done by a fan base.
• 18:27
  [SPEAKER_01]: Maybe one of them, I mean, for long term.
• 18:31
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's like you go for 14 when a championship of the 14.
• 18:34
  [SPEAKER_00]: You break another drought.
• 18:35
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
• 18:36
  [SPEAKER_01]: But like you're joining aunt, lamello, go bear.
• 18:39
  [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, but we also know I think those roster.
• 18:41
  [SPEAKER_01]: But we know we know it's the cap.
• 18:43
  [SPEAKER_01]: So this is.
• 18:43
  [SPEAKER_01]: I think it's going to move caps.
• 18:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: I do.
• 18:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: I think right now he's letting this stuff out because he wants to make sure.
• 18:48
  [SPEAKER_01]: Do you know what LeBron loves to do?
• 18:49
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's a big old power play.
• 18:50
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm not knocking him for this is how it goes.
• 18:52
  [SPEAKER_01]: He's making sure he's keeping the calves honest.
• 18:54
  [SPEAKER_01]: you say you're going to do this.
• 18:55
  [SPEAKER_01]: Go do it.
• 18:55
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'll come on.
• 18:56
  [SPEAKER_01]: We'll see how it goes.
• 18:57
  [SPEAKER_01]: The breaking news from yesterday, which I was super excited to see was that out of the Mitchell has agreed to a four year 273 million dollar contract extension, including a player option for 2030 and 31 and a full trade kicker announced yesterday.
• 19:15
  [SPEAKER_00]: Can you explain that to me, please?
• 19:16
  [SPEAKER_00]: Good sir.
• 19:17
  [SPEAKER_00]: What is a trade kicker?
• 19:17
  [SPEAKER_01]: So he gets more money if they trade him somewhere.
• 19:20
  [SPEAKER_01]: Okay, so if he goes somewhere else if he is it's not a no trade clause, but it's if he gets traded somewhere.
• 19:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
• 19:29
  [SPEAKER_01]: He's going to get a kicker money.
• 19:31
  [SPEAKER_01]: He's going to get more money from the team that trades more.
• 19:33
  [SPEAKER_01]: So in a way, it's like cost prohibit because the team that's going to trade form is going to have to pay him more money.
• 19:38
  [SPEAKER_01]: But it's, it's down to the Mitchell.
• 19:39
  [SPEAKER_01]: I think that's probably in there because he feels the same way to do.
• 19:42
  [SPEAKER_01]: We're in this run right now.
• 19:44
  [SPEAKER_01]: This run will come an end.
• 19:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: And when you're a good player like Donovan Mitchell, you do not see free agency.
• 19:48
  [SPEAKER_01]: When it's done, the calves will trade him.
• 19:50
  [SPEAKER_01]: I hope that's not for a long time.
• 19:52
  [SPEAKER_01]: I hope we go win two championships with Donovan Mitchell and he signs another extension here.
• 19:59
  [SPEAKER_01]: 2030.
• 20:00
  [SPEAKER_01]: This contract runs to 2030.
• 20:02
  [SPEAKER_01]: Where is the time gone?
• 20:04
  [SPEAKER_01]: But the other news was that he left $80 million on the table because he could have waited until next summer and signed a five year $353 million deal.
• 20:16
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yesterday was the first day that he was eligible.
• 20:19
  [SPEAKER_01]: That came down at what?
• 20:20
  [SPEAKER_01]: Nine, twenty in the morning, nine o'clock in the morning, something like that.
• 20:24
  [SPEAKER_01]: Right when I finished my show run, though.
• 20:25
  [SPEAKER_01]: There you go.
• 20:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: And just rip that on up.
• 20:27
  [SPEAKER_01]: Happens, plenty of time.
• 20:29
  [SPEAKER_01]: What does that tell you about Donovan Mitchell's belief in the Cavaliers?
• 20:32
  [SPEAKER_01]: Number one, it is not just a belief that they're going to get where they need to go with this whole thing.
• 20:38
  [SPEAKER_01]: But I also, that is, you have your money set.
• 20:42
  [SPEAKER_01]: So now you know,
• 20:44
  [SPEAKER_01]: what's your own me, what's your own this guy, the only one is James Harden who by the way is kind of waiting to see maybe what LeBron does before he signs his new deal, these are all positive moves to go forward with the calves.
• 20:57
  [SPEAKER_01]: There's a couple of takes I want to get off on that.
• 20:59
  [SPEAKER_01]: Number one, a credit to Donovan Mitchell, man.
• 21:04
  [SPEAKER_01]: that guy has been borderline everything that you've could have ever asked with him coming here.
• 21:11
  [SPEAKER_01]: What's the only thing that's missing?
• 21:13
  [SPEAKER_01]: That championship.
• 21:14
  [SPEAKER_01]: And I think he can still bring you one outside of that.
• 21:18
  [SPEAKER_01]: It leaps player.
• 21:20
  [SPEAKER_01]: Great teammates.
• 21:22
  [SPEAKER_01]: Good to the media.
• 21:23
  [SPEAKER_01]: Good to the fans.
• 21:24
  [SPEAKER_01]: Good in our community.
• 21:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: He's everything that you could ever ask for in a superstar.
• 21:31
  [SPEAKER_01]: He just needs that championship.
• 21:33
  [SPEAKER_01]: And he's getting close.
• 21:34
  [SPEAKER_01]: They're working their way up towards it.
• 21:36
  [SPEAKER_01]: but he is everything that you could have asked for.
• 21:38
  [SPEAKER_01]: So that's number one.
• 21:39
  [SPEAKER_01]: I appreciate Donovan Mitchell for the person that he is.
• 21:43
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm so happy that he has come here and given everything that he has for this town.
• 21:47
  [SPEAKER_01]: And another thing that can't be lost, like there aren't these crazy trade rumors.
• 21:51
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's not him starting drama.
• 21:52
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's not him going off and getting in trouble and stuff.
• 21:55
  [SPEAKER_01]: It is so great to see.
• 21:57
  [SPEAKER_01]: just a great player who loves this town and loves to play here.
• 22:00
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's number one.
• 22:01
  [SPEAKER_01]: Number two, the calves deserve so much credit in this.
• 22:04
  [SPEAKER_01]: And you've heard me say this before Ryan, I'm gonna say it again.
• 22:07
  [SPEAKER_01]: The calves know how to run an MBA organization.
• 22:09
  [SPEAKER_01]: Dan Gilbert's willing to spend.
• 22:11
  [SPEAKER_01]: They have an amazing new facility that's coming up, but they spare no expense on the little things.
• 22:16
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's why you hear so many players.
• 22:18
  [SPEAKER_01]: I think that's why LeBron is even interested in coming back here because he knows this is a first class run organization.
• 22:26
  [SPEAKER_00]: don't take that for granted.
• 22:28
  [SPEAKER_01]: You could be, I don't know, the Memphis Grizzlies.
• 22:33
  [SPEAKER_01]: You could be the New Orleans Pelicans.
• 22:36
  [SPEAKER_01]: They're smaller markets.
• 22:38
  [SPEAKER_01]: they got nothing on the calves and that's in part because of the people there that's in part because of the in Gilbert and that's how you get start they they have said before the calves know how to foster an environment for a star player there are organizations in this NBA that have no idea what to do when they have a star player and you know the ones I'm talking about
• 22:58
  [SPEAKER_01]: you know the ones that jettison star after star and it's never works out LA and Yorker a little bit different I think because they're major markets, I guess maybe even Dallas to a point, but like the Cavs are a smaller market and they know how to foster an environment for a star.
• 23:14
  [SPEAKER_01]: It was LeBron now it's none of the Mitchell well done on them for doing that.
• 23:18
  [SPEAKER_01]: And I just think for him this is
• 23:23
  [SPEAKER_01]: Did he do this because he knows Brian is coming?
• 23:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: Or did he is this completely and utterly separate of LeBron?
• 23:29
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's hard to not kind of tie those together, right?
• 23:33
  [SPEAKER_01]: Ryan, like it's hard for me not to sit here and think one means the other.
• 23:36
  [SPEAKER_01]: This should drop so the other one's got to drop.
• 23:37
  [SPEAKER_00]: You know what I mean?
• 23:38
  [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, anytime you have a situation like this, you try to follow the dots.
• 23:41
  [SPEAKER_00]: But probably not, right?
• 23:44
  [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, if you're done with it and the side made sense for both sides, like you said you left 80 million on the table, but he just picked up 270, $3 million.
• 23:52
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I don't think he's dealt with injuries, these scary calf injuries, all it takes is one slip.
• 23:57
  [SPEAKER_00]: And then, oh, there goes your max extension.
• 23:59
  [SPEAKER_00]: You're never getting another one in your NBA career, right?
• 24:01
  [SPEAKER_00]: Like, how many killings and injuries have we just seen the last couple years?
• 24:04
  [SPEAKER_01]: Well, the other thing I'm going to look at too is, and I'm not saying this in a negative light at all, he's got to understand that like, maybe there is going to be an exit here soon or rather later, because he might have, he might have, because a player option for 2030, I think that's very advantageous for him.
• 24:21
  [SPEAKER_01]: So you leave that on the table knowing that there's going to be a short no matter what I hate to say this, but I think it's the truth no matter what you have for the calves right now it's a short run and it's not even their fault it's because that's what the NBA has set up and that's what the NBA wants eight different champions and 13 different teams in the finals over the last what eight years that's ridiculous I hate that it's ridiculous is what it is do do do do you think there's also an aspect to it of
• 24:49
  [SPEAKER_00]: Donovan Mitchell, maybe I'm completely wrong on this.
• 24:52
  [SPEAKER_00]: But Donovan Mitchell might realize the Cavs value him more than 29 other NBA teams would.
• 25:02
  [SPEAKER_01]: Well, because, yes and no, because you see what I'm saying.
• 25:06
  [SPEAKER_01]: I give you a saying, because if he went to the nix, like is he a true NBA superstar?
• 25:11
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yes.
• 25:12
  [SPEAKER_01]: OK.
• 25:13
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
• 25:13
  [SPEAKER_00]: I guess it depends on something.
• 25:15
  [SPEAKER_01]: If he went to LA, that's Lucas team.
• 25:18
  [SPEAKER_01]: If he went to Boston, that's Jason Taylor.
• 25:21
  [SPEAKER_00]: Like there's no better situation for Donovan Mitchell now.
• 25:24
  [SPEAKER_00]: Like he's not just going to put it all on his shoulders.
• 25:26
  [SPEAKER_00]: But most of it will be and should be on his shoulders.
• 25:28
  [SPEAKER_00]: So it's up to him at this point, I guess.
• 25:30
  [SPEAKER_00]: If he wants to elevate it.
• 25:31
  [SPEAKER_01]: And you just got to look at LeBron and say, he's not coming here to take this team over.
• 25:34
  [SPEAKER_01]: He's here to come take some freaking load off my shoulder.
• 25:37
  [SPEAKER_01]: Like James Harden did.
• 25:39
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's what I view LeBron.
• 25:41
  [SPEAKER_01]: And I would hope that Donovan and LeBron, and everybody else would view it the same.
• 25:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's not the same LeBron.
• 25:47
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's just not, it can't be.
• 25:48
  [SPEAKER_01]: This cannot be the same LeBron as it was eight years ago and 10 years ago or whatever, 12 years ago, however long it was, right?
• 25:55
  [SPEAKER_01]: Like it's not the same, it can't be.
• 25:58
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm looking at him as like the veteran older player that he is, it's bringing experience here and I think he can still play.
• 26:06
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's what it is.
• 26:07
  [SPEAKER_01]: More than anything with Lebron, it's what I get with Bronn.
• 26:11
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's not just Lebron, the body, the man.
• 26:15
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's what you get with Lebron.
• 26:17
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's my biggest thing about why I want him back here.
• 26:20
  [SPEAKER_01]: I want him to step into this organization and make it be known.
• 26:25
  [SPEAKER_01]: What do they always say?
• 26:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: A lot of them know.
• 26:27
  [SPEAKER_01]: Let them know.
• 26:29
  [SPEAKER_01]: We're going to get on a champion.
• 26:30
  [SPEAKER_01]: She, you guys, got to figure your own games out here.
• 26:32
  [SPEAKER_01]: There's so much more to LeBron coming back to this team.
• 26:35
  [SPEAKER_00]: Correct.
• 26:35
  [SPEAKER_00]: That is beneficial.
• 26:37
  [SPEAKER_01]: Regardless of if they win the game.
• 26:39
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's not just this pie, agree with us.
• 26:40
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's not just this play and a big part of that is getting to the play.
• 26:43

• 27:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: I want to get into one of the rap things up Couple YouTube comments coming in Ryan wrap up our calves coverage listen.
• 27:30
  [SPEAKER_00]: I guess I'm not the I guess I'm on the minority side These girls again.
• 27:34
  [SPEAKER_00]: I'm not getting Anthony injury prone days.
• 27:36
  [SPEAKER_00]: I ain't doing that.
• 27:37
  [SPEAKER_01]: No, no, no
• 27:39
  [SPEAKER_01]: If it was $15,000 sure, it doesn't matter, but I'm telling you, you got it, it does, I'll don't need $10.
• 27:49
  [SPEAKER_01]: It doesn't matter.
• 27:50
  [SPEAKER_01]: Adam Silver has created this cut this out for the rock that Adam Silver's created this hellhole, and this is what you're in.
• 27:59
  [SPEAKER_01]: I do not like, okay, I get that Adam silver thought it was this massive problem about an arm's race and everybody getting a big three and he was trying to correct mistakes that he thought were mistakes, okay?
• 28:14
  [SPEAKER_01]: So then they went way too far over here in creating this apron system.
• 28:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: I hate this version of the NBA more than I did in the 2010s.
• 28:30
  [SPEAKER_01]: Now what are you gonna say?
• 28:31
  [SPEAKER_01]: Now you're spoiled Cavs fan, you want four straight finals, you want a championship.
• 28:35
  [SPEAKER_01]: Of course you liked the way that it was and the Cavs haven't even been to a finals since that.
• 28:40
  [SPEAKER_01]: Point well taken, you're not wrong.
• 28:43
  [SPEAKER_01]: But I think the NBA is hurting for this too.
• 28:46
  [SPEAKER_01]: Who is the biggest star in the league right now, right?
• 28:49
  [SPEAKER_01]: You had to think about it.
• 28:51
  [SPEAKER_01]: You had to think about it.
• 28:52
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's honestly valid.
• 28:55
  [SPEAKER_01]: Because he used to be unquestion you would say one of two guys LeBroner stuff that was it there were other good players But you it was the little LeBroner stuff Jason Tatum is it she is it you'll get she's at Luca is it Jalen Brown is it and is it Donovan Mitchell do you say Wemby when the I didn't even mention probably the answers when I almost said sure I don't know about three years in the lead that's what I'm saying that is not good
• 29:24
  [SPEAKER_00]: I don't think that is good, but I mean, you're valid because there always has been one friend be it.
• 29:30
  [SPEAKER_00]: It seems different, but like I guess MLB show hay on questionably there's trout for a while and then NFL I guess pretty deep and NFL's just on the court.
• 29:38
  [SPEAKER_01]: I mean, that's all subjective too because it just depends on how good your team is quarterback things like that.
• 29:42
  [SPEAKER_01]: I don't think that's good for the NBA.
• 29:43
  [SPEAKER_01]: I really don't.
• 29:44
  [SPEAKER_01]: I mentioned the NFL has had an over one of my favorite things of the offseason.
• 29:48
  [SPEAKER_01]: is Jeremy Fowler and he does this right around this time every year and what he does he goes to every position in the NFL running backs, cornerbacks, ad rusher, defensive tackles, tight ends, tackles, interior offensive linemen, quarterbacks, off-ball linebackers, receivers, and safety.
• 30:03
  [SPEAKER_01]: And every day over the next couple of weeks, he's going to release that list and what he does is he goes around to I want to say it's like 50 different people.
• 30:14
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm sorry, 70 voters, 70 different voters submitted ballots on the top 10 players at these positions.
• 30:22
  [SPEAKER_01]: It is.
• 30:23
  [SPEAKER_01]: front office people.
• 30:25
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's ESPN people.
• 30:27
  [SPEAKER_01]: And I think this is a real true barometer.
• 30:30
  [SPEAKER_01]: The NFL 100 is a good list.
• 30:32
  [SPEAKER_01]: I think that's fine.
• 30:33
  [SPEAKER_01]: But I think there's some bias with that.
• 30:35
  [SPEAKER_01]: There's bias in this because like today's corners, we'll tell you where Denzel Ward was.
• 30:40
  [SPEAKER_01]: I think the Bengals guys might raid him higher, right?
• 30:43
  [SPEAKER_01]: Because they see him more.
• 30:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: Versus other guys are there some hatred or they don't like the guy.
• 30:48
  [SPEAKER_01]: So there's bias at all of us, but I think this is a true brahmeter of where guys stand at their position.
• 30:54
  [SPEAKER_01]: So number one, they did running backs back on Monday.
• 30:57
  [SPEAKER_01]: Quinshaud Judkin's received votes.
• 30:59
  [SPEAKER_01]: So it's top 10 honorable mentioned received votes.
• 31:02
  [SPEAKER_01]: He got votes, I think that's fine.
• 31:05
  [SPEAKER_01]: Don't really care you want to see who do you think the best running back is voted was and see did you see the list have you done The only one no, so I look at the corner.
• 31:12
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, the ones I've seen at the top five because I didn't look at the back ones.
• 31:16
  [SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
• 31:16
  [SPEAKER_00]: I want to think about it corner and head, but I haven't seen any other ranking.
• 31:18
  [SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
• 31:18
  [SPEAKER_01]: Good.
• 31:19
  [SPEAKER_01]: Number one.
• 31:20
  [SPEAKER_01]: This year.
• 31:21
  [SPEAKER_00]: Running back.
• 31:24
  [SPEAKER_01]: Be Jonathan.
• 31:25
  [SPEAKER_01]: That is correct.
• 31:25
  [SPEAKER_01]: You got one into well done.
• 31:27
  [SPEAKER_01]: Be John is one gives us to say,
• 31:35
  [SPEAKER_01]: I mean, Jonathan, John of the Taylor, Derek Henry, Cook, Devon H and Walker, Breeze Hall, Jacob's, Kyron Williams.
• 31:42
  [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, Quinshawn was an honorable mention.
• 31:43
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm sorry, not just receiving votes.
• 31:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: Quinshawn, AFC executive runs incredibly hard, faster in the open field than you think.
• 31:50
  [SPEAKER_01]: I think he's going to have a big year.
• 31:52
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, so do I.
• 31:53
  [SPEAKER_01]: Love it.
• 31:53
  [SPEAKER_01]: All right, now we go to corners for today.
• 31:56
  [SPEAKER_01]: So the number one corner,
• 31:59
  [SPEAKER_01]: Pat Sertain, second year in a row that he is number one.
• 32:03
  [SPEAKER_01]: Number two, Derek Stingley, the Texans.
• 32:05
  [SPEAKER_01]: Number three, love this guy, Christian Gonzalez of the New England Patriots.
• 32:09
  [SPEAKER_01]: Now, I want you to remember these next couple of guys here, okay?
• 32:12
  [SPEAKER_01]: Devon with her spoon of the Seattle Seoxys 4, Trent McDuffie now with a Ramses 5, 6 is Quinnion Mitchell, the Eagles, and a number seven.
• 32:21
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's Edward.
• 32:22
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, and it means like Matt also from three last year to seven this year, but I want to say as real quick.
• 32:28
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm sorry.
• 32:28
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, please the three guys I said keep an eye on Jeremy Fowler said that those guys were almost interchangeable with them Denzel.
• 32:35
  [SPEAKER_01]: They said the votes were this close that he could have been all the way up to four.
• 32:38
  [SPEAKER_00]: He felt a seven and another thing too.
• 32:40
  [SPEAKER_00]: Like I I didn't do the math and we don't have to but I think you do not want me to point is
• 32:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: What what see average age of those guys like the top seven because Denzel Ward obviously older than Sir Tane Stingley Gonzalez with a spoon and then what was five so I'll run through the age like Denzel is 29 queen on Mitchell's 24 Mcduffy is 25 with her spoon is 25 Gonzalez is 24 Stingley is 25 and Pat Sir Tane is 20 so it's not even close like Denzel Ward still at that age is considered a shutdown quarter as yeah, yeah that that that that alone is impressive
• 33:11
  [SPEAKER_01]: and they do the high-ranking and the low-ranking based on the vote and that's what I'm saying and that's what I want to talk to Josh about it to be able to do tomorrow of what position falls off the fastest as you get older I would imagine have to be corner corner and running back 100% yeah running back to great one that's a great one like you got lineman playing in well into 30 certainly quarterbacks corner and some receivers that's corner and backers probably a short life because it's just you're just you're smashed all the time
• 33:39
  [SPEAKER_01]: I see Harrison Smith's playing at 39 at safety.
• 33:42
  [SPEAKER_01]: Detacals, by the way, you see that story about Clay's Campbell's family.
• 33:46
  [SPEAKER_01]: Oh man, it's thoughts of person.
• 33:47
  [SPEAKER_01]: But Clay's Campbell's still doing it, you know, for as long as he has.
• 33:50
  [SPEAKER_01]: Corner, he's there at 29.
• 33:51
  [SPEAKER_01]: So the right up here, an NFL personnel evaluate or on Denzel Ward.
• 33:56
  [SPEAKER_01]: If he played in Kansas City or New England, he'd be the talk of the NFL.
• 33:59
  [SPEAKER_01]: through.
• 33:59
  [SPEAKER_01]: He's so good.
• 34:00
  [SPEAKER_01]: He doesn't get the credit.
• 34:01
  [SPEAKER_01]: He should the twitch and closing speed.
• 34:03
  [SPEAKER_01]: There's no one better.
• 34:04
  [SPEAKER_01]: He closes faster than anyone I've ever seen and covered.
• 34:07
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's a special trait.
• 34:09
  [SPEAKER_01]: Of course, he's made five pro balls.
• 34:11
  [SPEAKER_01]: And dare I say, state, state pretty healthy last year.
• 34:15
  [SPEAKER_01]: Love to see that.
• 34:17
  [SPEAKER_01]: A veteran NFL defensive coach on Denzel Ward.
• 34:20
  [SPEAKER_01]: You look back over last decade.
• 34:21
  [SPEAKER_01]: He's one of the most consistent corners in the league.
• 34:23
  [SPEAKER_01]: He's always just been a really gifted guy.
• 34:26
  [SPEAKER_00]: There are people wanting to trade in men and I thought about it.
• 34:29
  [SPEAKER_00]: I'm not going to lie to you here.
• 34:30
  [SPEAKER_00]: I thought about it.
• 34:31
  [SPEAKER_00]: I thought about it.
• 34:32
  [SPEAKER_00]: I did like, you know, that you can't afford with that.
• 34:36
  [SPEAKER_00]: I don't think you can't.
• 34:37
  [SPEAKER_01]: That quarterback room is thin.
• 34:39
  [SPEAKER_01]: Well, I guess next article, I got to get to you in a second.
• 34:41
  [SPEAKER_01]: I got to know before.
• 34:43
  [SPEAKER_01]: I got to know the corner for it over here in a second.
• 34:46
  [SPEAKER_01]: The thing about Denzel Ward is this.
• 34:49
  [SPEAKER_01]: If he asks the Browns for a trade, you give it to him.
• 34:53
  [SPEAKER_01]: There needs to be no question on this.
• 34:55
  [SPEAKER_01]: If he ever came to Andrew Barry, and he said, you know what, I need to go.
• 35:02
  [SPEAKER_01]: I want to go back to the playoffs.
• 35:04
  [SPEAKER_01]: When dare say, have a shot for Super Bowl, there is no debate.
• 35:11
  [SPEAKER_01]: There is zero question you trade him to where he wants to go.
• 35:17
  [SPEAKER_01]: You give him that.
• 35:18
  [SPEAKER_01]: Now, you're going to get back what you got from miles.
• 35:20
  [SPEAKER_01]: That situation is different, okay?
• 35:22
  [SPEAKER_01]: You sent miles to kind of where you wanted to go in a contender, but that's guess who number one on the past, or unless what's this year?
• 35:30
  [SPEAKER_01]: Guess who is unanimous that got every first place vote for past Russia today?
• 35:34
  [SPEAKER_01]: Miles Garrett, not surprising.
• 35:35
  [SPEAKER_01]: Not surprising.
• 35:36
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's different.
• 35:37
  [SPEAKER_01]: And I'm not knocking Denzel Ward.
• 35:38
  [SPEAKER_01]: To your point, Ryan, he's a great player he has been, and I think he's going to continue to be.
• 35:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: But if he came to the Browns and he said, you need to, I'm good, we need to go.
• 35:50
  [SPEAKER_01]: We got you.
• 35:51
  [SPEAKER_00]: Where do you want to go?
• 35:52
  [SPEAKER_01]: Give us the list that you'd be okay with and we'll work with those teams to get the best deal we can you move on.
• 35:56
  [SPEAKER_00]: All right, it's gonna say the bank.
• 35:57
  [SPEAKER_00]: I hope that doesn't, why don't you go there because it's on Ohio and imagine if you can help out that defense?
• 36:06
  [SPEAKER_01]: Now you're getting into Joe Hayden territory.
• 36:09
  [SPEAKER_00]: And people are going to remember about Joe and I think people come out the other side on Joe.
• 36:12
  [SPEAKER_00]: Hey, and that one isn't his fault.
• 36:14
  [SPEAKER_00]: Right.
• 36:14
  [SPEAKER_01]: That one is fault.
• 36:15
  [SPEAKER_01]: But I just, that's my only thing on Denzel.
• 36:18
  [SPEAKER_01]: If he wants to be here, great.
• 36:20
  [SPEAKER_01]: Do I want to sign him?
• 36:22
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
• 36:22
  [SPEAKER_00]: Soon extension?
• 36:23
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yes, I do.
• 36:24
  [SPEAKER_00]: Sure.
• 36:24
  [SPEAKER_01]: Why not?
• 36:25
  [SPEAKER_01]: You got to keep some people around here.
• 36:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: You got to keep some veterans around.
• 36:28
  [SPEAKER_01]: If he's happy to be here, you keep him for as long as he can't.
• 36:30
  [SPEAKER_01]: Before we get to pass, sir, I just want to do this.
• 36:32
  [SPEAKER_01]: Benjamin Soulac on ESPN, the breakout candidates for every single team this year.
• 36:37
  [SPEAKER_01]: Cleveland Browns?
• 36:38
  [SPEAKER_01]: Tyson Campbell.
• 36:40
  [SPEAKER_01]: Hmm, who by the way did get votes in that top 10 corner list and he writes can I call a player who once signed a four year 76 million dollar deal a breakout candidate He looked like a cornerstone to Aaron Jacksonville hamstring injury.
• 36:53
  [SPEAKER_01]: They flipped into Cleveland a clear some salary cap Campbell looked more at home in Cleveland, which we said that when they traded Greg Newsom This is literally a fifth thing now the problem is the fitting to fit anymore because Greg or Greg was a great
• 37:04
  [SPEAKER_01]: Jim Schwartz is not here anymore.
• 37:07
  [SPEAKER_01]: So what's Mike Root and Burke gonna get out of him.
• 37:09
  [SPEAKER_01]: I don't know But the same thing like him and Denzel with Grant Delpit with Ronnie Hickman with a manual McNeil Warren I like that second area, man.
• 37:20
  [SPEAKER_00]: I really do I do his well big fan I'm just saying when he gets him I was hard and I hear a nickel back.
• 37:25
  [SPEAKER_00]: It's a little scary.
• 37:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah Oh listen to that find find some put me in with Neil warm there
• 37:31
  [SPEAKER_00]: anywhere.
• 37:31
  [SPEAKER_01]: He'll play play play play play play play play play.
• 37:33
  [SPEAKER_00]: He'll play down the by the line for what's up there.
• 37:35
  [SPEAKER_01]: There you go.
• 37:35
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's good slacker.
• 37:37
  [SPEAKER_01]: He's fast.
• 37:38
  [SPEAKER_01]: He's big.
• 37:38
  [SPEAKER_01]: I put him there.
• 37:39
  [SPEAKER_00]: But Tyson Campbell is a breakout candidate.
• 37:41
  [SPEAKER_00]: I love that with Denzel work.
• 37:42
  [SPEAKER_00]: All right.
• 37:42
  [SPEAKER_01]: Today was the past rushers.
• 37:44
  [SPEAKER_01]: I already mentioned it.
• 37:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: Miles Garrett swept it as he should.
• 37:48
  [SPEAKER_01]: We haven't talked about him in a while.
• 37:51
  [SPEAKER_01]: Settle down.
• 37:53
  [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, I personally.
• 37:54
  [SPEAKER_01]: You're okay with it.
• 37:55
  [SPEAKER_01]: I was okay with it.
• 37:56
  [SPEAKER_01]: I was
• 38:01
  [SPEAKER_00]: I'm completely over it.
• 38:02
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I was lately over at this point.
• 38:04
  [SPEAKER_01]: I could care less.
• 38:04
  [SPEAKER_00]: I don't even think it's a factor.
• 38:06
  [SPEAKER_00]: That's not even being better.
• 38:07
  [SPEAKER_00]: Like I appreciate him.
• 38:07
  [SPEAKER_01]: No, it was the right thing to do.
• 38:10
  [SPEAKER_01]: It was the right thing to do for the Browns and the stuff like this ain't gonna bother me.
• 38:14
  [SPEAKER_01]: He's number one.
• 38:16
  [SPEAKER_01]: Number two, Michael Parsons.
• 38:18
  [SPEAKER_01]: Number three, Willie Anderson, Jr. Max Crosby is at four, eight and Hutchinson five.
• 38:22
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's six as Daniel Hunter.
• 38:24
  [SPEAKER_01]: Teacher of Watt falls all the way from two to seven.
• 38:27
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, as he should.
• 38:28
  [SPEAKER_01]: AFC executive.
• 38:29
  [SPEAKER_01]: He's definitely in decline crazy.
• 38:31
  [SPEAKER_00]: That was a very good to know Andrew Barry's He had to bear it must have contributed.
• 38:35
  [SPEAKER_00]: I'm just kidding.
• 38:35
  [SPEAKER_01]: I have no idea TJ wanted seven Nick Bose even with a torn ACL at eight because you gotta remember they're voting on this not just on production It's like the guy you would want on your team
• 38:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: Brian Burns on Big fan of it nine and Nick Benino, I ten honorable mention Jared verse.
• 38:50
  [SPEAKER_01]: AFC executive on him.
• 38:51
  [SPEAKER_01]: I thought he improved in his second year with better past rush plan.
• 38:55
  [SPEAKER_01]: He sets his moves up better, but this is another executive and this is something that I think is an important part of a Jared verse.
• 39:01
  [SPEAKER_01]: He says,
• 39:03
  [SPEAKER_01]: He doesn't have a good enough variety.
• 39:06
  [SPEAKER_01]: He said, verse is all power at times, where he's only going to get better and have a greater career.
• 39:12
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's all, what he said, he's only going to get better.
• 39:15
  [SPEAKER_01]: But he just, it's just the power.
• 39:18
  [SPEAKER_01]: It would have been nice to learn from Miles, wouldn't it be?
• 39:22
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I love Jared verse the player.
• 39:24
  [SPEAKER_00]: He projects to be fantastic.
• 39:27
  [SPEAKER_00]: And he's only two years in, yeah.
• 39:29
  [SPEAKER_00]: But only at seven and a half sex.
• 39:31
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's career high.
• 39:32
  [SPEAKER_00]: Like that's a lot of projection to get to the type of, and nobody's expecting to be my house care.
• 39:37
  [SPEAKER_01]: Well, and it's funny, because we were just talking about not rehashing this, this miles' Garrett thing.
• 39:46
  [SPEAKER_01]: The idea that Jared vs. were two first round.
• 39:48
  [SPEAKER_01]: I was never on board with a back then.
• 39:50
  [SPEAKER_01]: I am bored with it now.
• 39:51
  [SPEAKER_01]: Now again, can he get there maybe one day sure, but right now,
• 39:56
  [SPEAKER_01]: We'll see.
• 39:56
  [SPEAKER_01]: We'll kind of see how it goes.
• 39:57
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's some good things kind of work for the browser.
• 40:00
  [SPEAKER_01]: I got to tell you another thing too.
• 40:01
  [SPEAKER_01]: Not to bring this up because it's going to be counter-intuitive.
• 40:03
  [SPEAKER_01]: What I'm going to talk about.
• 40:04
  [SPEAKER_00]: It's so nice to get a break from the quarterback thing, man.
• 40:06
  [SPEAKER_01]: And I just, I know that that's what everybody cares about.
• 40:09
  [SPEAKER_01]: There's not going to be any news on this.
• 40:11
  [SPEAKER_01]: They're going to get to training camp.
• 40:13
  [SPEAKER_01]: I think it's going to be to Sean Watson, but it's been nice to take a little breath.
• 40:17
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's a
• 40:17
  [SPEAKER_01]: actually but nice like focus on the calves for a little while, you know, we'll talk some guardians coming up in a minute, but it's been nice to kind of get that breather for rest assured, we're going to cannonball right back into this in a couple of weeks when we're back into camp.
• 40:31
  [SPEAKER_00]: And I just, my piece of advice everybody in this is it doesn't really matter, it doesn't.
• 40:36
  [SPEAKER_01]: Like, I know people want to sit there and act like people are really thinking, Ryan, that this decision is somehow going to either make a break us, make it in the playoffs.
• 40:46
  [SPEAKER_00]: You know what I'm saying?
• 40:47
  [SPEAKER_01]: Like, it's important, it's important to Todd Monkin, it's the quarterback of our town.
• 40:52
  [SPEAKER_01]: And there is an emotional tie to this thing, because I think most people, including myself, they like shit or Sanders.
• 40:57
  [SPEAKER_01]: I like sure seniors.
• 40:58
  [SPEAKER_01]: I've got nothing against him.
• 41:00
  [SPEAKER_01]: I just question if he's actually going to be able to play at this level.
• 41:03
  [SPEAKER_01]: I don't hate the kid.
• 41:04
  [SPEAKER_01]: I love him.
• 41:05
  [SPEAKER_01]: Great.
• 41:05
  [SPEAKER_01]: I hope he's the answer.
• 41:06
  [SPEAKER_01]: I do.
• 41:07
  [SPEAKER_01]: And if it were up to me, I'd start your door.
• 41:10
  [SPEAKER_01]: I just think it's going to be to Sean Watson.
• 41:13
  [SPEAKER_01]: So all that aside.
• 41:16
  [SPEAKER_01]: We're not that big of a deal.
• 41:18
  [SPEAKER_01]: Is it?
• 41:18
  [SPEAKER_01]: No, I don't think so.
• 41:20
  [SPEAKER_00]: I still kind of think it's going to be shit or Sanders.
• 41:22
  [SPEAKER_00]: I hope that's.
• 41:23
  [SPEAKER_00]: I.
• 41:23
  [SPEAKER_00]: We really.
• 41:24
  [SPEAKER_01]: I true.
• 41:24
  [SPEAKER_01]: I know.
• 41:25
  [SPEAKER_00]: I do you that I hope it is.
• 41:26
  [SPEAKER_00]: I do too.
• 41:27
  [SPEAKER_00]: I'd be my call.
• 41:28
  [SPEAKER_00]: I don't think there's any way in hell that he's not better than.
• 41:31
  [SPEAKER_00]: The Sean Watson.
• 41:33
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
• 41:34
  [SPEAKER_00]: But these got nothing left in the tank, Matt.
• 41:37
  [SPEAKER_00]: I know we're going to try full ourselves again.
• 41:39
  [SPEAKER_00]: I'm not interested.
• 41:39
  [SPEAKER_01]: There's plenty of people that will.
• 41:41
  [SPEAKER_01]: What you Sean does this and then you got a time to extension.
• 41:45
  [SPEAKER_00]: Okay, but I do think there could be a big difference in terms of if you're actually contending for the playoffs, if you start to throw right away, whether they're wasting time with the shot.
• 41:52
  [SPEAKER_00]: Like, yeah, I think that actually will make a huge difference.
• 41:55
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I get it.
• 41:56
  [SPEAKER_00]: I get it.
• 41:57
  [SPEAKER_00]: That's, I mean, how could it not?
• 41:59
  [SPEAKER_00]: You're trying to cut my quarterbacks.
• 42:00
  [SPEAKER_01]: No, I, I, that's what put it under the guys and this is what you don't like is I don't know if I don't know what this team would do with either one of I'm picking up what you put you know I'm saying and and you know where we're going to be heading next year in the draft you know we're potentially next off season is going to be it'll be interesting to go.
• 42:14
  [SPEAKER_00]: We got to get some guards, including a fatal parlay.
• 42:20
  [SPEAKER_00]: I lost on soccer the other night and it's like, you know, Tanner Bobby sold me the other night.
• 42:25
  [SPEAKER_00]: That's not his fault, man.
• 42:27
  [SPEAKER_01]: What?
• 42:28
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's not his fault.
• 42:29
  [SPEAKER_01]: Did you know what happened in the other night?
• 42:32
  [SPEAKER_00]: All right, save for the guards.
• 42:33
  [SPEAKER_01]: Remind me about him.
• 42:33
  [SPEAKER_00]: Because there was a rain delay and then another one, he went and warmed up and then they go out there and then nobody would apparently nobody checked the warning track.
• 42:41
  [SPEAKER_00]: Congratulations.
• 42:42
  [SPEAKER_00]: You're a professional athlete.
• 42:43
  [SPEAKER_00]: Weather hat.
• 42:44
  [SPEAKER_01]: Nope.
• 42:44
  [SPEAKER_01]: Nope.
• 42:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm given him a pass on this one.
• 42:46
  [SPEAKER_01]: You and I are going to argue.
• 42:47
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, you you you you you give.
• 42:49
  [SPEAKER_01]: Because the other picture was up from a toe.
• 42:52
  [SPEAKER_01]: You got to give him a pat, it's not his fault.
• 42:54
  [SPEAKER_00]: All right, that's not his fault.
• 42:56
  [SPEAKER_01]: First off, I'll give it to you if it's a regular rangelate.
• 42:59
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's not like he went out and warmed up and then they called the rangelate.
• 43:02
  [SPEAKER_01]: They knew it was a rangelate.
• 43:03
  [SPEAKER_01]: He sat down and he didn't warm up.
• 43:05
  [SPEAKER_01]: Right, he went out there, warmed up.
• 43:07
  [SPEAKER_01]: Ready to go step on the mound and they go, well wait, 45 minutes, we got to fix the warning track.
• 43:11
  [SPEAKER_01]: Congratulations.
• 43:12
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's like, I think you're not giving him off credit for him.
• 43:18
  [SPEAKER_00]: He was getting showed every single bad rest of his gut forethening made contact with him.
• 43:24
  [SPEAKER_00]: What do you have one strike out?
• 43:25
  [SPEAKER_01]: Again, he was off his game.
• 43:28
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's been a theme.
• 43:29
  [SPEAKER_01]: I will the other team was too.
• 43:31
  [SPEAKER_01]: I understand that.
• 43:34
  [SPEAKER_01]: I Bobby start to come back around they also started a bullpen arm in the first inning, and then went to Fetty with do the same thing The game a little bit of game a little break game a little rest on that I can't pull any come on off an injury though or something I can't believe this man We'll talk some guards coming up because we'll get to the trade deadline I got a bad take on that I had a bad take on the trade deadline Chuck Barkley in the news and they'd you see what the big 12 did
• 44:06
  [SPEAKER_01]: This is full now, I know, I, I, I, you careful.
• 44:13
  [SPEAKER_01]: When I tell you that, is this actually some ridiculous, or is this being another, are you being a college football?
• 44:18
  [SPEAKER_01]: No, no, no, no, this is, because there's one of the stupidest things that I have ever seen in sports.
• 44:27
  [SPEAKER_01]: And this, if this doesn't tell you that the NCAA has no soul.
• 44:32
  [SPEAKER_01]: and are just strictly about every penny.
• 44:36
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'll tell you that story coming up, because this is embarrassing.
• 44:41
  [SPEAKER_01]: This is actually embarrassing from the NCAA.
• 44:43
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'll tell you what, we're gonna get that when we come back.
• 44:46
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm gonna move that up.
• 44:47
  [SPEAKER_01]: I was gonna do at the end of the show, we're gonna do when we come back.
• 44:49
  [SPEAKER_01]: So I'm gonna tell you what is going on and is how disgusting frankly this is.
• 44:55
  [SPEAKER_01]: In a second, physicians ambulance folks, they are the best.
• 44:59
  [SPEAKER_01]: The heat is out, who was over at Huntington Bank, field the other night.

  [SPEAKER_01]: Well, I think they were there.
• 45:11
  [SPEAKER_01]: They were.
• 45:12
  [SPEAKER_01]: And uh, but physicians ambulance was there because every single event and Huntington Bank feel they are there when the weather is the way that it is they have extra protocols in place.
• 45:22
  [SPEAKER_01]: They have extra force extra people there extra ambulances.
• 45:27
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's why they're busy.
• 45:28
  [SPEAKER_01]: They are hiring our physicians ambulance.com, apply today, help them continue to set the standard, such as the event medicine, right?

  [SPEAKER_01]: They've got eight different locations going all the way down to Columbus.
• 45:44
  [SPEAKER_01]: You're near a physician's ambulance.
• 45:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: And I'll tell you what, I bet you've seen one driving on the road.
• 45:48
  [SPEAKER_01]: I run into him more often than not, right?
• 45:50
  [SPEAKER_01]: See it?
• 45:50
  [SPEAKER_01]: I was small a little bit.

  [SPEAKER_01]: At Jason Hess, that's his family.
• 45:53
  [SPEAKER_01]: Third generation, family owned, physicians ambulance.
• 45:57
  [SPEAKER_01]: If you're an EMT or a paramedic, you're looking for some more, you could be starting a whole new career.
• 46:02
  [SPEAKER_01]: You know, I saw this the other day, resonated with me because I'm now 37 years of age.
• 46:07
  [SPEAKER_01]: Um, you know, the average career change for people is at 39 years old, the average age to start a business is 40.
• 46:13
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's never too late and you might be saying maybe this is the time for that career change and try see which has a phenomenal EMT and paramedic and fire fighting program there.
• 46:22
  [SPEAKER_01]: You can see you know what this whole thing is going to get started.
• 46:24
  [SPEAKER_01]: Now you can't just walk in a physician's ambulance.
• 46:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: You got to go get your certifications and things like that.
• 46:28
  [SPEAKER_01]: But even if you are just starting down that path, it's never too early to reach out.
• 46:31

• 46:44
  [SPEAKER_01]: First something that happened with the Big 12.
• 46:46
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm going to tell you what it is.
• 46:47
  [SPEAKER_01]: We'll get to it coming up, Big Play Cleveland Show Live right here on YouTube.
• 46:50
  [SPEAKER_01]: I've seen a lot of things with the NCAA.
• 46:54
  [SPEAKER_01]: What I saw this week from the Big 12s and one of the most disgusting things I have ever seen in college athletics.
• 47:01
  [SPEAKER_01]: And maybe this is my fault.
• 47:02
  [SPEAKER_01]: I just need to understand that the NCAA has no soul, and it will just go to the highest bidder.
• 47:07
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's the big play Cleveland show, he's Ryan Tyler on that Fontana, presented by great friends at Fandle.
• 47:12
  [SPEAKER_01]: Physicians and Abel, it's garage, but it is a garage beer summer, isn't it?
• 47:15
  [SPEAKER_01]: I could do what you want in here.
• 47:17
  [SPEAKER_01]: Blaze, when you were talking about AC earlier and the people working in their jobs, I'm like, dude, can we get something here?
• 47:22
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's about 90 degrees.
• 47:23
  [SPEAKER_01]: It'd be nice to get someone here.
• 47:24
  [SPEAKER_01]: But here we are, we're having a great time, never gonna complain about it as a garage beer summer.
• 47:28
  [SPEAKER_01]: So,
• 47:29
  [SPEAKER_01]: I want to start this conversation by saying that the sponsor that is involved in this, I actually love.
• 47:37
  [SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
• 47:38
  [SPEAKER_01]: I drink their product.
• 47:39
  [SPEAKER_01]: I like their product.
• 47:41
  [SPEAKER_01]: Monster assault was one of my favorite energy drinks of all time.
• 47:44
  [SPEAKER_01]: They discontinue it.
• 47:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's a sad day.
• 47:46
  [SPEAKER_01]: But I love monster energy.
• 47:47
  [SPEAKER_01]: I really do.
• 47:49
  [SPEAKER_01]: But this week, the big 12 conference announced that they in Monster
• 47:59
  [SPEAKER_01]: Where now, it is not just Big 12 football, Ryan.
• 48:04
  [SPEAKER_01]: You now must refer to it as monster energy, Big 12 football.
• 48:08
  [SPEAKER_01]: And monster energy, Big 12 basketball.
• 48:11
  [SPEAKER_01]: Four?
• 48:12
  [SPEAKER_01]: $20 million a year.
• 48:15
  [SPEAKER_00]: That's it.
• 48:15
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's it.
• 48:17
  [SPEAKER_01]: $20 million a year over 16 schools.
• 48:20
  [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, your Mac got swindled.
• 48:27
  [SPEAKER_01]: What?
• 48:28
  [SPEAKER_01]: are we doing here?
• 48:32
  [SPEAKER_01]: How?
• 48:35
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's disgusting.
• 48:37
  [SPEAKER_01]: That is absolutely awful.
• 48:42
  [SPEAKER_01]: You know, the jerseys patch thing.
• 48:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: because again it's so first up it's not only that you got to refer to it as monster energy what is this NASCAR you got to refer to as monster energy big 12 football patches on the on the jersey's uh co-branded logos on the field basketball courts and all.
• 49:01
  [SPEAKER_00]: So the era where in brother everything's commercialized you know come on.
• 49:06
  [SPEAKER_00]: You know, I saw a documentary this reminds me of it when I was in college for one of our classes.
• 49:10
  [SPEAKER_00]: We watched it just how the world is getting over commercialized and advertised.
• 49:14
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it's good.
• 49:15
  [SPEAKER_00]: And it's like ruining the world, by the way.
• 49:17
  [SPEAKER_00]: And anyways, ruining the incident.
• 49:19
  [SPEAKER_00]: Like you're going to see stuff mad eventually.
• 49:21
  [SPEAKER_00]: Like you're going to look in the sky.
• 49:23
  [SPEAKER_00]: And just be billboards in the sky.
• 49:25
  [SPEAKER_00]: That's what we had to show everything in sponsored.
• 49:27
  [SPEAKER_01]: I mean, do you say a commercial about the joke or they're like the daughter's graduating?
• 49:32
  [SPEAKER_01]: And it's like Amanda brought you by so-and-so-tire service.
• 49:34
  [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, yeah, it's graduate.
• 49:35
  [SPEAKER_01]: Was you say all commercial?
• 49:36
  [SPEAKER_00]: It's top five commercial of every, uh, autobot, to Blonski, Autobotty, LLC, and the mom looks over to go, it's what?
• 49:44
  [SPEAKER_00]: I sold her right.
• 49:44
  [SPEAKER_01]: So I sold the name here.
• 49:46
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's a Blonski, Autobotty.
• 49:48
  [SPEAKER_01]: And I get it because like we are in an advertising business.
• 49:52
  [SPEAKER_01]: I tell you about physicians and ambulance.
• 49:53
  [SPEAKER_01]: I tell you about Fandle, you watching our show helps us that is part of what we do.
• 49:59
  [SPEAKER_01]: I never against marketing.
• 50:00
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm not against advertising.
• 50:02
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's what it is.
• 50:03
  [SPEAKER_01]: This feels dirty and disgusting and wrong.
• 50:08
  [SPEAKER_01]: And it's not because it's an energy drink.
• 50:10
  [SPEAKER_01]: I know people want to rip energy drinks.
• 50:12
  [SPEAKER_01]: Listen, if you're an adult, do whatever you want.
• 50:15
  [SPEAKER_01]: I really don't care.
• 50:16
  [SPEAKER_01]: If you like energy drinks, knock yourself out.
• 50:18
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm myself, I like energy drinks.
• 50:20
  [SPEAKER_01]: I drink, I'm not as nearly as much I used to think goodness, but I don't care.
• 50:24
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's not about that.
• 50:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's having some sanctity about a game that has been around for a hundred years.
• 50:36
  [SPEAKER_01]: And you just sell out to any corporate partner that comes to call in for what 20 million dollars.
• 50:45
  [SPEAKER_00]: That's you better keep this edge of terror when the big 10 becomes the Red Bull a big time.
• 50:53
  [SPEAKER_01]: Well Wisconsin's got culvers, I do love culvers, culvers and delicious.
• 50:57
  [SPEAKER_01]: Ooh, get some cheese curds, man.
• 50:58
  [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, it's so good.
• 50:59
  [SPEAKER_00]: You're a big tenileadist.
• 51:01
  [SPEAKER_00]: Per usual.
• 51:01
  [SPEAKER_01]: No, they'll sell out one day too, and it's gonna piss me off that day too.
• 51:05
  [SPEAKER_01]: And again, it's not about monster, I don't care what it is.
• 51:09
  [SPEAKER_01]: Ooh, all Dave.
• 51:12
  [SPEAKER_01]: It is now the Big Ten Con for the Big Play Big Ten Football.
• 51:16
  [SPEAKER_01]: Cut that check.
• 51:18
  [SPEAKER_00]: We're getting to the comments, LeBron, a Philly, he gains nothing from Cleveland.
• 51:21
  [SPEAKER_00]: He already want to ring me.
• 51:21
  [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, you made it sound like he was going.
• 51:23
  [SPEAKER_01]: And scare me like that.
• 51:25
  [SPEAKER_00]: No, I double checked.
• 51:27
  [SPEAKER_01]: LeBron.
• 51:29
  [SPEAKER_01]: Well, he'd be sponsored by Firestone Country Long J.
• 51:33
  [SPEAKER_01]: China.
• 51:34
  [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, come on.
• 51:35
  [SPEAKER_01]: Don't say that.
• 51:36
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's not true.
• 51:39
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's not true.
• 51:40
  [SPEAKER_00]: LeChina.
• 51:41
  [SPEAKER_01]: He's not.
• 51:43
  [SPEAKER_00]: He's not about those guards.
• 51:45
  [SPEAKER_00]: How about those guards?
• 51:46
  [SPEAKER_01]: Hey, some good news.
• 51:47
  [SPEAKER_01]: One of the greatest guardian Indian killer of all time is retiring, Justin Verlaine, or something.
• 51:52
  [SPEAKER_01]: So I was done after this season.
• 51:53
  [SPEAKER_01]: Good for him.
• 51:54
  [SPEAKER_01]: Fantastic career.
• 51:55
  [SPEAKER_01]: Don't, I'm gonna go there anyway.
• 51:58
  [SPEAKER_01]: If he is not a unanimous first ballot hall of favor, after Derek Jeter, don't get me started on Derek Jeter.
• 52:08
  [SPEAKER_01]: Don't, just don't do it.
• 52:11
  [SPEAKER_01]: If just invert you want to talk about how people are upset about how dirty or one an anonymous one, then Mariana Vera was, if just in Verlander and Frank, I'm going to say, if just in Verlander might trout and show Hayo Tani are not unanimous, they shouldn't even put it to a vote.
• 52:30
  [SPEAKER_01]: Cooper's town should just go, we don't even care what you think they're coming in.
• 52:35
  [SPEAKER_01]: That would be powerful.
• 52:36
  [SPEAKER_01]: What?
• 52:37
  [SPEAKER_01]: Wait for that uproar.
• 52:40
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm gonna get no, never mind, this is gonna work to do a shoot.
• 52:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, Ken would be upset with me There's gonna be some old pompous ass 87 year old baseball writer somewhere go or just a real internet give me an interview one time FM.
• 52:56
  [SPEAKER_00]: I'm not putting it on my bell I hate baseball ballots.
• 53:00
  [SPEAKER_01]: I know there's people that always love to send theirs out milk.
• 53:02
  [SPEAKER_00]: Look what I voted for.
• 53:03
  [SPEAKER_01]: I hated
• 53:04
  [SPEAKER_01]: but the good news is we're starting to come out the other side of the steroid error people.
• 53:07
  [SPEAKER_01]: We're actually getting valid candidates to make it just in Berlin.
• 53:11
  [SPEAKER_01]: They should wave it for him.
• 53:13
  [SPEAKER_01]: They really should.
• 53:14
  [SPEAKER_01]: They should wave.
• 53:15
  [SPEAKER_01]: He's unanimous.
• 53:15
  [SPEAKER_01]: There's zero question of just in Berlin, there's all a favor.
• 53:18
  [SPEAKER_01]: But that just came down.
• 53:19
  [SPEAKER_01]: All right, guards.
• 53:20
  [SPEAKER_01]: Here we go.
• 53:23
  [SPEAKER_01]: I can't get angry.
• 53:24
  [SPEAKER_01]: Like I said the same thing last week on a Cooper angle, man.
• 53:27
  [SPEAKER_01]: I can't get angry about them.
• 53:28
  [SPEAKER_01]: They have been so severely injured.
• 53:31
  [SPEAKER_01]: I've had a little twist and take on the on the, oh, get's the all source in a minute.
• 53:37
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm the trade deadline.
• 53:40
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm going in low.
• 53:42
  [SPEAKER_01]: I don't think there's going to be anything that they do.
• 53:44
  [SPEAKER_01]: I think the work stoppage is a factor.
• 53:48
  [SPEAKER_01]: I can picture Chris Santonetti with the will getting on Helm Martinez and Jose Ramirez back or like making a trade.
• 53:54
  [SPEAKER_01]: I just picture it has he not already said that.
• 53:56
  [SPEAKER_01]: Well, here's the other thing.
• 53:57
  [SPEAKER_01]: When you see this lineup when you see Cullio Watson become when he's become I think he can make it as an everyday guy for Cooper Engles going to have and I'm not blaming him.
• 54:06
  [SPEAKER_01]: He got all tastes in a mech down.
• 54:08
  [SPEAKER_01]: Rokio.
• 54:10
  [SPEAKER_01]: Borderline all start.
• 54:13
  [SPEAKER_01]: But it's like, if I just add on Hell and Hose to this?
• 54:16
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's a lot or man?
• 54:17
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's a lot of his back.
• 54:19
  [SPEAKER_01]: It looks like gradient.
• 54:20
  [SPEAKER_01]: I feel pretty good, hedges his hidden.
• 54:24
  [SPEAKER_01]: Like, I feel pretty good.
• 54:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: Here's why I don't feel so good.
• 54:30
  [SPEAKER_01]: Now Steven Quanz glove is starting to become a question.
• 54:34
  [SPEAKER_01]: What the hell was that?
• 54:37
  [SPEAKER_01]: And you must say, Matt, there was a ball in the gap in the twins game.
• 54:42
  [SPEAKER_01]: I expect him to run that down.
• 54:44
  [SPEAKER_01]: It hit like, like, if he can't hit, which I know he can't.
• 54:51
  [SPEAKER_01]: And he can't be making those plays out in the outfield.
• 54:54
  [SPEAKER_01]: You might need to think about Benjamin.
• 54:56
  [SPEAKER_01]: Oh boy.
• 54:58
  [SPEAKER_01]: This, I've thought about this take for a while.
• 55:00
  [SPEAKER_01]: And I don't want to come on here and you know, obviously gets my blood pressure up on some things here.
• 55:04
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm not trying to be, I'm not trying to be out here for clicks.
• 55:07
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm not trying to go viral.
• 55:08
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm not trying to be some hot take artist over here.
• 55:10
  [SPEAKER_01]: That it, it's not me.
• 55:11
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's never been and ever will be.
• 55:15
  [SPEAKER_01]: you have got to accept that Stephen Quang is cooked, just accepted, because once you do, and once the organization does, we'll be in a better spot.
• 55:27
  [SPEAKER_01]: Now, what do I mean by that?
• 55:31
  [SPEAKER_01]: If he can continue to be a gold glove, premier defensive corner out filter, I'll live with that, and your
• 55:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: when you do as I have done and just accept that Stephen Kwan's bad is gone and he probably won't ever find it again, whatever you get out of him is bad in the eighth hole, whatever you get, but it's like, I'm not, you know how you sit there and you're like, okay, Brian Rokio is now become a spot where you're like, I don't, I'm not looking at short stops.
• 56:03
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm not looking at guys like even Juan Bredo down in the minors.
• 56:06
  [SPEAKER_01]: That spot is taken.
• 56:07
  [SPEAKER_01]: Jose Ramirez, that spot is taken.
• 56:09
  [SPEAKER_01]: All star Travis Bazana, that spot is taken.
• 56:13
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm not saying that about left field anymore.
• 56:16
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm not saying that about left field anymore.
• 56:19
  [SPEAKER_01]: I never thought we'd be here with that.
• 56:21
  [SPEAKER_01]: I thought he used to be traded or he'd be here long term being all star, be everything that your thought is going to be.
• 56:28
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's not his spot anymore.
• 56:30
  [SPEAKER_01]: You just can't be.
• 56:32
  [SPEAKER_01]: If he wants to, again, he's going to be like Austin hedges of the past.
• 56:36
  [SPEAKER_01]: He's out there because he's going to defends.
• 56:38
  [SPEAKER_01]: Like to say it.
• 56:39
  [SPEAKER_01]: You laugh, but like, Ryan, that's what it is.
• 56:42
  [SPEAKER_00]: That's a Cleveland special.
• 56:43
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's what it is.
• 56:44
  [SPEAKER_01]: And if the bat somehow miraculously gets figured out, great, what a bonus that is.
• 56:51
  [SPEAKER_01]: I have no faith that that is going to be able to turn around.
• 56:56
  [SPEAKER_01]: I really don't.
• 56:57
  [SPEAKER_01]: So that's number one.
• 56:58
  [SPEAKER_01]: The other one is this man's ardo huskins thing.
• 57:01
  [SPEAKER_01]: I know huskins went yard yesterday.
• 57:03
  [SPEAKER_01]: He's pet 180.
• 57:05
  [SPEAKER_01]: Man's ardo, like, again.
• 57:10
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm not holding up first base for anybody else.
• 57:14
  [SPEAKER_01]: Like right field is chased a lot you don't see like right field is chased the waters that's going to be for a long time don't even think about.
• 57:20
  [SPEAKER_01]: I frankly think between Cleo Watson and on Helm Martinez center field is good.
• 57:24
  [SPEAKER_01]: Second is good, short is good, third is good, catcher is good.
• 57:28
  [SPEAKER_01]: You can always take pitching that's not part of this conversation first and left.
• 57:33
  [SPEAKER_01]: I would agree with those are open.
• 57:34
  [SPEAKER_01]: And if you want to go do something, it's trade deadline by all means.
• 57:38
  [SPEAKER_01]: And that's another great point about the trade deadline coming up.
• 57:42
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm going in low.
• 57:44
  [SPEAKER_01]: But Ryan, when you think about it, if you really buy into what I'm selling here, that there's only two positions.
• 57:49
  [SPEAKER_01]: First, based on left field, it's first and left to me.
• 57:51
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's probably the opposite for you.
• 57:52
  [SPEAKER_01]: So here's the first and left, right?
• 57:54
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's it.
• 57:56
  [SPEAKER_01]: then go trade for somebody to fill one of those spots up.
• 57:59
  [SPEAKER_01]: Left foot, what do I need Ralph and I like Ralph, you're less is what do you need all these guys for?
• 58:03
  [SPEAKER_01]: They're not gonna have a spot.
• 58:04
  [SPEAKER_00]: Left field, 100% agree with that.
• 58:07
  [SPEAKER_00]: First base is just such a lock to you.
• 58:09
  [SPEAKER_01]: But it's a lock to you.
• 58:10
  [SPEAKER_00]: But I'm of media and I agree, I still like man's a lot.
• 58:16
  [SPEAKER_00]: And then a bullpen on.
• 58:19
  [SPEAKER_00]: Wait, a bullpen arm and I would love another quality starter because at some point Well one tanner vibes question.
• 58:26
  [SPEAKER_00]: I get it.
• 58:26
  [SPEAKER_00]: You paid it.
• 58:26
  [SPEAKER_00]: You can't just what yeah, but but like they're but the only rotation MLB that have All five that's all five that's crazy.
• 58:35
  [SPEAKER_00]: That's not gonna that's it won and who is who's up next after that right?
• 58:39
  [SPEAKER_00]: Like well, I don't even know if they're gonna anybody
• 58:42
  [SPEAKER_01]: I got to look up the prospect and by the way, I know that Ralph you've last guys plays first base, but are you just going to bring him up like you don't say like you have enough prospects up here starts spending something to get a known, uh, known commodity.
• 58:53
  [SPEAKER_01]: I don't go with Guardians, well, it's funny because you know, started for the Clippers the other night, Logan Allen, he's still there.
• 59:00
  [SPEAKER_00]: LTA, he's still around.
• 59:02
  [SPEAKER_01]: Uh, I Ralphie's number one, uh, on Helgino is number two, Kuperingoster, Braille and Daudi is a right handed guy, but he's only in double A. Oh, Cal Stephen, but he's just got hurt.
• 59:13
  [SPEAKER_01]: He's got me.
• 59:14
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
• 59:15
  [SPEAKER_01]: Joey Oki, but he's only in high A. I'm just saying, like, you don't you do not have another.
• 59:23
  [SPEAKER_01]: Like if we just left the deadline with somebody with a starter and a bullpen or I'm happy if you if somebody gets hurt in that starting rotation you're trying to the your you either have to make a move you're bringing up Logan out and like God forbid knock on wood it's parcromasic, you know, yeah, we're going to afford that at all.
• 59:42
  [SPEAKER_01]: All star game.
• 59:42
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm really shocked by Bizarna.
• 59:44
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm happy about that, but I'm shocked at Travis Bizarna.
• 59:47
  [SPEAKER_01]: I thought Bryan Rokio deserved to go.
• 59:49
  [SPEAKER_01]: Kate Smith was a zero doubt about it.
• 59:51
  [SPEAKER_01]: Glad that he made a Parker Messick.
• 59:53
  [SPEAKER_01]: You know, I thought about Gavin Williams for a second, but shot at the Justin from Lockdown guards.
• 59:57
  [SPEAKER_01]: He was like, and not after watching recently.
• 1:00:00
  [SPEAKER_01]: If you'd have asked me an April,
• 1:00:02
  [SPEAKER_00]: Maybe, but now and obviously he didn't make it, but do you think they're in a better spot right now than they were like at least play off projection-wise than they were last year?
• 1:00:14
  [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, yeah, because I mean at this point you were probably close to 10 games out were you not?
• 1:00:21
  [SPEAKER_01]: What was the point in the season that they were for wasn't 14 out we came out back behind for MLB record to win the division?
• 1:00:28
  [SPEAKER_00]: Because I thought it was a 16.
• 1:00:30
  [SPEAKER_00]: Stand by it.
• 1:00:31
  [SPEAKER_00]: All right.
• 1:00:31
  [SPEAKER_00]: Today's July 8, 2025 MLB standings.
• 1:00:39
  [SPEAKER_01]: Ah, here you go.
• 1:00:39
  [SPEAKER_01]: Baseball reference.

  [SPEAKER_01]: You can get lost on that page, man.
• 1:00:42
  [SPEAKER_01]: This is July 8th from one year ago today.
• 1:00:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: The Guardians were 15 and a half games out.
• 1:00:49
  [SPEAKER_01]: 15 and a half, okay, yeah.
• 1:00:50
  [SPEAKER_01]: Detroit was this day, one year ago, Detroit was 59 and 34.

  [SPEAKER_01]: They had a 14 game lead on Minnesota, a 14 game lead on the Royals, a 15 and a half game lead on the Guardians and the White Sox were 28 and a half games out.
• 1:01:06
  [SPEAKER_01]: They were 30 and 62.
• 1:01:09
  [SPEAKER_00]: One year ago today, you flash forward to today.
• 1:01:12
  [SPEAKER_01]: Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait,
• 1:01:29
  [SPEAKER_01]: I think they won like 40 games last year or something like that.
• 1:01:32
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm putting sauce in that.
• 1:01:34
  [SPEAKER_01]: I think something like that.
• 1:01:35
  [SPEAKER_01]: Oh yeah, they were, and look at them now.
• 1:01:38
  [SPEAKER_01]: Look at them now.
• 1:01:39
  [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, you're talking about the white side.
• 1:01:40
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, what?
• 1:01:41
  [SPEAKER_00]: Oh my, I for some reason I thought you said the Guardians at one point last year.
• 1:01:44
  [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, no, no, no, no, no, the white side.
• 1:01:46
  [SPEAKER_01]: No, the white side.
• 1:01:47
  [SPEAKER_01]: Okay, that makes more sense.
• 1:01:48
  [SPEAKER_01]: The white side.
• 1:01:49
  [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, the white socks, and now where are we?
• 1:01:51
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's literally flipped.
• 1:01:53
  [SPEAKER_01]: From one year ago today, the white socks were in the cellar, we were second, and now they're leading a more wrong game behind them.
• 1:02:00
  [SPEAKER_01]: Watch out for them twins too.
• 1:02:03
  [SPEAKER_01]: Fire, I feel so bad about fire and bugs to me.
• 1:02:06
  [SPEAKER_01]: Hurt again.
• 1:02:08
  [SPEAKER_01]: Guardians, some people want him go in low on the trade.
• 1:02:12
  [SPEAKER_01]: And I think you're gonna be happier with it.
• 1:02:14
  [SPEAKER_01]: You know, it's gonna make me happy.
• 1:02:16
  [SPEAKER_00]: Guardians, parlay.
• 1:02:17

  [SPEAKER_00]: All right, uh, back to the guards.
• 1:04:04
  [SPEAKER_00]: Did you see Argentina's in the same comeback?
• 1:04:06
  [SPEAKER_01]: I did.
• 1:04:07
  [SPEAKER_01]: I did.
• 1:04:07
  [SPEAKER_01]: Well, now, um, Egypt's pissed.
• 1:04:10
  [SPEAKER_01]: They're they're filing.

  [SPEAKER_01]: They're going to pull.
• 1:04:12
  [SPEAKER_01]: They're going to try the balligan route for what they send that there was unfair refereeing in the VAR assist was improperly used.
• 1:04:19
  [SPEAKER_01]: I don't know what's the I don't think it's anything happened to it, but they're they're very upset Egypt is pissed, but again, they got they got they choked the way a massive one what scored out it's going to go.
• 1:04:29
  [SPEAKER_01]: All right, tonight, twins, guardians, three game losing streak for the guards.
• 1:04:33
  [SPEAKER_01]: Sekoni's going for us, Connor pre-lip, free-lip, I don't know.
• 1:04:39
  [SPEAKER_01]: He's only two and five, 4.9 ERA.
• 1:04:42
  [SPEAKER_01]: So here we go.
• 1:04:43
  [SPEAKER_01]: Number one, guards are the dog in this one.
• 1:04:46
  [SPEAKER_01]: Slight dogs.
• 1:04:47
  [SPEAKER_01]: Slight dogs.
• 1:04:48
  [SPEAKER_00]: Do we like the under on eight and a half?
• 1:04:52
  [SPEAKER_00]: Both do have a four plus ERA.
• 1:04:53
  [SPEAKER_00]: They do.
• 1:04:57
  [SPEAKER_01]: And I mean, I'm just looking up, hang on.
• 1:05:00
  [SPEAKER_01]: We saw, is it free to lip?
• 1:05:01
  [SPEAKER_01]: I think that's what it is.
• 1:05:03
  [SPEAKER_01]: I think I've heard that Matt said.
• 1:05:04
  [SPEAKER_01]: He had five innings against us earlier in the year, gave a four hits one earned run.
• 1:05:10
  [SPEAKER_01]: It was a home run.
• 1:05:14
  [SPEAKER_01]: Let me look, game log here.
• 1:05:16
  [SPEAKER_01]: His last five outings, six ending, six, six, six.
• 1:05:20
  [SPEAKER_01]: He's given up two, six, four, two, and four earned runs.
• 1:05:24
  [SPEAKER_01]: So he's given up in an average.
• 1:05:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm going to say about three.
• 1:05:27
  [SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
• 1:05:28
  [SPEAKER_01]: Average.
• 1:05:30
  [SPEAKER_01]: For slayed, he's pitching better.
• 1:05:34
  [SPEAKER_01]: Recently, I think, at least I feel that way.
• 1:05:39
  [SPEAKER_01]: uh... five in on a game of the five runs against the white socks but before that and entire month of junior five start to get up six earned runs and couldn't act including the games against the ganky cd two starts against the game to get three runs they lost both of those games uh... i hate bet in the under though let's do this as it guards when i do like the guards to win so i'm gonna do money a lot way in a way way way before we go anywhere
• 1:06:04
  [SPEAKER_01]: Get your boost.
• 1:06:05
  [SPEAKER_01]: Get my boost man.
• 1:06:08
  [SPEAKER_01]: I don't have one for today.
• 1:06:10
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's okay.
• 1:06:11
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'll wait for later I got the level one benefits though, which I like very much.
• 1:06:14
  [SPEAKER_01]: All right back to the cards.

• 1:06:30
  [SPEAKER_01]: Let's take the over Let's go to batting
• 1:06:35
  [SPEAKER_01]: But we don't have a line up yet, so I'd be interested to see that.
• 1:06:39
  [SPEAKER_01]: I don't want to do a home run.
• 1:06:42
  [SPEAKER_01]: The water is the favorite for a hit today at minus 270.
• 1:06:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: Bazonas 260 minus 260.
• 1:06:47
  [SPEAKER_01]: Roku is minus 24.
