0:26
Speaker 1: How does that look from thirty thousand feet as he's

Speaker 1: Kirk Herbstreet means with his quote nobody's got the stones?
0:37
Speaker 1: Rant on college football? And we'll talk some baseball. How
0:41
Speaker 1: worried should the Cubs be that Kyle Tucker will not
0:45
Speaker 1: sign an extension to stay in the Friendly Confines. I'll
0:49
Speaker 1: discuss that as well. It's all coming your way right now.
0:53
Speaker 1: It's our number three, and it's yours. Well, sometimes you

Speaker 1: vast and lyrically powerful microphones of fsre emmating live from Blood.

Speaker 1: love this. Now Friday is the top listener we have
2:02
Speaker 1: in Central Pa. There listens every night. Been with the
2:05
Speaker 1: show for many many years. He famously sent fried Daddy
2:09
Speaker 1: sent Roberto and Air Friar in the mail and then
2:13
Speaker 1: Roberto was so happy that he thought that was his
2:15
Speaker 1: parting gift and he quit the show after that to
2:17
Speaker 1: go become a buster ever, but that was the Friydaddy.
2:20
Speaker 1: He looked up with Roberto with that, and he's been
2:22
Speaker 1: very kind to us over the years. And he's gonna
2:24
Speaker 1: love this story. He sent me a long not a
2:26
Speaker 1: long message, but he was very upset with one of
2:29
Speaker 1: the big stories we've talked about in recent episodes. So
2:32
Speaker 1: the rare and appropriate college football mallow monologue. College Football
2:38
Speaker 1: malle Monologue. Now we go now to a obligatory monologue
2:44
Speaker 1: update on former Southeastern Conference Tennessee quarterback Nico Imoliva, who
2:51
Speaker 1: has found a new home. If you haven't heard, maybe not.
2:55
Speaker 1: It's not official official. They haven't done the docu sign yet.
2:58
Speaker 1: But after leaving the volunteers who were in the College
3:02
Speaker 1: Football Playoff over a financial dispute about nil payment, we
3:08
Speaker 1: are told that Nico Imoliva is going to join the
3:14
Speaker 1: Powder Blue Up. You see, l Hey, it's going to
3:18
Speaker 1: go play for the Wizard of Westwood as long as
3:21
Speaker 1: the Wizard of Westwood comes back across the pearly gates
3:24
Speaker 1: and it decides to coach football instead of basketball. But
3:27
Speaker 1: im Aliva, remember this is the guy, this is the
3:30
Speaker 1: guy that wanted the four million, said, hey, I want
3:32
Speaker 1: the four men. If you believe the story that that's
3:34
Speaker 1: out there, he wanted four million. Tennessee said, we're already
3:37
Speaker 1: paying a two point four million. We're not going to
3:39
Speaker 1: pay a four man. You got a deal, And this
3:41
Speaker 1: guy decided to pull a power play and he held
3:46
Speaker 1: out right before the spring game in Knoxville. That's a
3:50
Speaker 1: no no, that's a no no. Well, now it appears
3:54
Speaker 1: that you see la the University of California, Los Angeles
3:58
Speaker 1: will pay him, but not anywhere near four million. In fact,
4:04
Speaker 1: will it be three million? Now? Will it be two
4:07
Speaker 1: and a half million? Absolutely not. Will it be two million?
4:12
Speaker 1: Can I get a hell no, it will not be
4:14
Speaker 1: two million. And the word of the street is that
4:18
Speaker 1: he will get around a million a year. Can you
4:21
Speaker 1: imagine that that is considered poor in today's college football?
4:26
Speaker 1: Oh my god, I'm gonna get about a million. You're
4:30
Speaker 1: such a lightweight. But wait, there's more. But wait, there's more.
4:34
Speaker 1: So our Fox Sports radio homeboy Colin Cowherd our teammate here,
4:40
Speaker 1: he reported that Imalva the family, the family of the player,
4:47
Speaker 1: is claiming that it wasn't a financial move. It wasn't that.
4:54
Speaker 1: It was a philosophical disagreement about the Tennessee volunteer offense.
5:00
Speaker 1: Somewhere Danny in Nashville, who now lives in Miami is
5:04
Speaker 1: rolling his eyes in the back of his head. But
5:06
Speaker 1: that's the spin from the emo Leva family. They're like, well, listen,
5:09
Speaker 1: it was not about the money. Just didn't think it
5:12
Speaker 1: was a good fit for the offense. Okay, so let
5:16
Speaker 1: us discuss those are the latest developments. So I ask,
5:21
Speaker 1: how does this quarterback Nico Imoliva's move from Tennessee to UCLA.
5:27
Speaker 1: Look from thirty thousand feet in the sky, you're looking down.
5:31
Speaker 1: Even our blind listeners can look down and see this.
5:34
Speaker 1: So my view on this, I've got paper Shredder, high
5:37
Speaker 1: Seas and Bob Marley and we will combine all of
5:42
Speaker 1: these things together and we will go into overdrive. We're
5:46
Speaker 1: gonna go into overdrive. Now. First of all, I'm looking
5:50
Speaker 1: down from thirty thousand feet and I see a capital
5:56
Speaker 1: B boondoggle. That's what I say. Boone doggle is what
6:00
Speaker 1: I see from thirty thousand feet. Now. Imaliva went from
6:04
Speaker 1: five star camp missrecruit QB one on a playoff team
6:09
Speaker 1: from the Southeastern Conference. Now he is going back to
6:13
Speaker 1: his native land, southern California, to a basketball first school,
6:18
Speaker 1: a bottom wrong, bottom wrong Big ten school. How odd
6:24
Speaker 1: is it to say UCLA is in the Big Ten?
6:26
Speaker 1: That just doesn't fit and it it's likely never going
6:30
Speaker 1: to fit in my life. It's I just I grew
6:33
Speaker 1: up with Pac ten, Big ten and all that anyway,
6:38
Speaker 1: But by any measurement, Nico blew it. It is not
6:42
Speaker 1: a good time to be named Nico in sports, Whether
6:45
Speaker 1: you're the executive in Dallas running the basketball team or
6:48
Speaker 1: a quarterback, you don't want to have the name Nico.
6:52
Speaker 1: Nico is bad, bad voodoo around Nico. So this guy
6:58
Speaker 1: took a two point four million dollar lot ticket and
7:01
Speaker 1: accidentally put it in the paper shredder and destroyed it.
7:06
Speaker 1: And now, if the math is accurate, that means, based
7:10
Speaker 1: on malormath, he's lost roughly fifty eight percent of the
7:16
Speaker 1: money that he would have made if he just kept
7:18
Speaker 1: his mouth shut and stayed at Tennessee. And now he's
7:21
Speaker 1: going to football. Siberia is where he's going now. As
7:27
Speaker 1: for the families, claim, it's not about the money. And
7:33
Speaker 1: when I hear someone say it's not about the money,
7:36
Speaker 1: my response is, it's always about the money. It's always
7:41
Speaker 1: about the bag. It's always about that. It's not about
7:44
Speaker 1: they said, well, that was about the offense Tennessee. That
7:47
Speaker 1: is the ministry of misinformation, is what that is. It
7:51
Speaker 1: just doesn't pass the smelts. It just doesn't all right. Now, Secondly,
7:56
Speaker 1: we stay with college football, and we stay and we
7:59
Speaker 1: take out the why angle lens here on name, image
8:03
Speaker 1: and likeness and entering the chat now is longtime college
8:07
Speaker 1: football pundit Kirk Herberstreet Herbie who does NFL games with
8:11
Speaker 1: Al Michaels as well. Now. Herbstreet said recently that no one,
8:17
Speaker 1: no one in a leadership position, is willing to criticize,
8:21
Speaker 1: to poke fun of the situation in the game today,
8:28
Speaker 1: he said, Nobody's got the stones. Herb Street laid out
8:33
Speaker 1: that it has become impossible to criticize the modern ballplayer
8:39
Speaker 1: in college football because you will be labeled anti player
8:44
Speaker 1: or out of touch, boomer old head, all the things
8:51
Speaker 1: used to mean anyone that has a differing opinion. So
8:55
Speaker 1: can you decipher can you decipher what Kirk Kurbstreet means
9:00
Speaker 1: with his Nobody's got the stones rant? And he's not
9:05
Speaker 1: talking about the rolling stones on college football. So it's
9:09
Speaker 1: pretty clear to me based on using my mallorar Rosetta
9:14
Speaker 1: Stone translating what Herbstreet was saying. So it seems that
9:19
Speaker 1: he's talking about the high seas of college football, meaning
9:24
Speaker 1: when you get twelve miles off the coast, like we
9:28
Speaker 1: do the show from La So if you go down
9:31
Speaker 1: to Santa Monica and you swim out twelve miles, you
9:36
Speaker 1: are in international waters. They call it the high seas.
9:40
Speaker 1: You're floating on international waters. There are no laws. There
9:44
Speaker 1: are no laws on the high seat now. When as
9:47
Speaker 1: a little kid, my grandfather told me stories back, you know,
9:51
Speaker 1: years ago, when they gambling was illegal. They would take
9:54
Speaker 1: people on these giant ships twelve miles off the coast
9:59
Speaker 1: and and they would gamble their hearts. They had gambling
10:02
Speaker 1: trips out to the ocean, gambling boats and all that.
10:06
Speaker 1: But by definition, if you go twelve miles outside of
10:10
Speaker 1: a country and in the water, you are under no jurisdiction.
10:15
Speaker 1: So that's essentially what college football is. It is the
10:18
Speaker 1: high seas right now. And Herbstreet is pointing out that,
10:23
Speaker 1: and this is rightfully so. The people that are supposed
10:26
Speaker 1: to be the adults of the room, very decorated from academia,
10:31
Speaker 1: they're cowards. The people that run college sports are cowards.
10:35
Speaker 1: That's how I interpret that. They could make rules, they
10:39
Speaker 1: could get together and have a council on a blue
10:41
Speaker 1: ribbon panel, and they could put rules in, but they
10:44
Speaker 1: won't be very popular, and they'll be challenged, and anyone
10:47
Speaker 1: who tries to put regulations in will be sued up
10:50
Speaker 1: the wazoo. And if they're not sued, they'll be threatened
10:53
Speaker 1: to suit your lawsuit here, lawsuit there, And so far
10:55
Speaker 1: the players have won pretty much every lawsuit that has
10:58
Speaker 1: been fouled. So these brightest minds, the most educated people
11:03
Speaker 1: out there, would rather just do nothing right. They don't
11:09
Speaker 1: want to stand up to the to the bully. Instead,
11:12
Speaker 1: they're they're bowing down. And what's gonna end up happening.
11:16
Speaker 1: It's all being telegraphed. It is going to take an
11:19
Speaker 1: Act of Congress. And when politicians get involved, they always
11:25
Speaker 1: make things worse. It doesn't matter it's a bipartisan issue.
11:29
Speaker 1: Politicians make things worse. They don't make things better. They
11:33
Speaker 1: never make things better. They make things worse. And so
11:36
Speaker 1: they're going to put a bunch of rules in. The
11:37
Speaker 1: dungeon masters are going to get together. The dungeon Masters
11:40
Speaker 1: will throw all these rules in. Now they'll start out
11:44
Speaker 1: rather small. I remember reading stories years ago about the
11:47
Speaker 1: beginning of the NCAA and had a different name, but
11:51
Speaker 1: the reason that started it was the White House. They
11:53
Speaker 1: were trying to save college football. College football at one
11:56
Speaker 1: point was the second most popular sport. I don't say
12:00
Speaker 1: it was. It was in the running with like boxing,
12:02
Speaker 1: horse racing, and baseball, but college pro people didn't care
12:06
Speaker 1: about pro football. College football was very popular, and people
12:09
Speaker 1: started dying from the flying wedge. So the president and
12:13
Speaker 1: I forget the name clips my head right now at
12:15
Speaker 1: the time, but the president put a panel together and
12:18
Speaker 1: they formed what eventually became known as the NC Double A,
12:21
Speaker 1: and it started out just to protect the players, and
12:23
Speaker 1: over time they kept adding more rules and more rules
12:26
Speaker 1: and more rules and more rules. I even like the
12:28
Speaker 1: way this country started. Right this country, there were a
12:32
Speaker 1: group of people from Europe that came across the ocean
12:35
Speaker 1: and they're like, they were upset with the taxation, so
12:37
Speaker 1: they came here and they're like, all right, we're gonna
12:39
Speaker 1: we're gonna set this up, and we're gonna have a
12:42
Speaker 1: few laws, and we're gonna have so, you know, just
12:44
Speaker 1: a few things. And then now look at it, you know,
12:46
Speaker 1: all these years later, it's it's out of control. And
12:48
Speaker 1: that's what always happened, right, And so because the people
12:52
Speaker 1: involved do not have, as Herb Street said, the stones
12:57
Speaker 1: to set this up, what's going to happen is but
13:00
Speaker 1: bunch of politicians will get involved and checks and balances,
13:04
Speaker 1: it'll go upside down and it's going to be a
13:08
Speaker 1: total debacle total. Right now, final funck. We pivot to baseball,
13:15
Speaker 1: talking baseball. I know it's early, I always want to
13:19
Speaker 1: talk some baseball. So we go to Chicago, where right
13:22
Speaker 1: now our man Tree is driving a truck filled with
13:27
Speaker 1: packages from ups around Chicago, and he loves the cub
13:31
Speaker 1: Now he didn't love the Cubs this week against the Podres.
13:34
Speaker 1: Cubs played pretty well against the Dodgers and the things
13:36
Speaker 1: that not going so well there in San Diego. But
13:38
Speaker 1: the Cubs are off to a pretty good so not
13:41
Speaker 1: a great start, a pretty good start. And not all
13:45
Speaker 1: is right on the homestead, though. There's an interesting story
13:49
Speaker 1: going around that the consensus always loved the consensus of
13:53
Speaker 1: unnamed Major league baseball executives. The consensus is that it
14:00
Speaker 1: is unlikely that Kyle Tucker, the big pickup this offseason,
14:06
Speaker 1: will sign one of those powerball contracts with the Cubbies,
14:11
Speaker 1: similar to what Vladimir Guerrero Junior did in all Come
14:18
Speaker 1: with the Blue Jacks. In fact one, one unnamed, unnamed
14:25
Speaker 1: National league executive said, quote, if the Cubs don't extend Tucker,
14:32
Speaker 1: that may go down as an all time terrible trig
14:37
Speaker 1: close quote question, how worried how worried should the Cubs
14:44
Speaker 1: be that Kyle Tucker will not will not sign an
14:48
Speaker 1: extension to stay at the friendly confines in Chicago. So
14:53
Speaker 1: the Cubs, Now, I have no skin in the game.
14:55
Speaker 1: And I have some people in my world that are
14:57
Speaker 1: a Cub fan Jonas Knox, who the Morning Big Cup
15:00
Speaker 1: Thy I loves to c got Cub season tickets for example.
15:05
Speaker 1: And I have family who was in Chicago in the suburbs.
15:09
Speaker 1: So the position if I'm the Cubs, I'm unphased and unshaken.
15:13
Speaker 1: In fact, I would crank up the Bob Marley tune,
15:17
Speaker 1: Don't worry about a thing, Don't worry about a thing.
15:20
Speaker 1: Right the Cubs. They went big. They got this former
15:24
Speaker 1: cheating a one one thousand and two one thousand hole,
15:29
Speaker 1: Kyle Tucker. And as long as they make a fair
15:32
Speaker 1: market offer, and by all accounts they will do that,
15:37
Speaker 1: that's it. That's all you can do. Tucker is twenty eight.
15:41
Speaker 1: He is in that category of baseball mercenary. Will someone
15:45
Speaker 1: out bid the Cubs the usual suspects, the Red Sox,
15:48
Speaker 1: the Yankees, the Dodgers, Maybe the Giants will spend some
15:53
Speaker 1: more money, and the Giants actually playing really well, I
15:57
Speaker 1: was watching the Giants Phillies game. By the way, that's
15:59
Speaker 1: that scares me a little bit. They're peaking too soon.
16:01
Speaker 1: The hgantes that the Giant's playing much better than the Dodgers,
16:05
Speaker 1: and that's a different conversation. But as far as Kyle Tucker,
16:10
Speaker 1: as far as Kyle Tucker is concerned, Kyle Tucker, now
16:13
Speaker 1: he also has to perform. And with every home run
16:17
Speaker 1: and every run batted in and every big hit, the
16:20
Speaker 1: value either stays the same or goes out. But with
16:23
Speaker 1: every bad at bad and with every bad performance, it
16:26
Speaker 1: goes down a little bit. So let's do a check
16:29
Speaker 1: on where Kyle Tucker is. Kyle Tucker is on pace
16:32
Speaker 1: right now today for sixty five doubles, forty one home runs,
16:37
Speaker 1: and one hundred and forty six RBIs now I never
16:39
Speaker 1: played in Major League baseball. That sounds pretty good. That
16:42
Speaker 1: sounds pretty good. But there's a long way to go.
16:44
Speaker 1: There's a long way to go, and it's only April seventeenth,
16:47
Speaker 1: so we'll see how much damage he does the rest
16:51
Speaker 1: of the way and does he stay healthy and all that.
16:53
Speaker 1: But Tucker's playing well, very well. But again, I'm not
16:56
Speaker 1: if I'm the cubs. I'm not freaking out. I'm not okay,
17:00
Speaker 1: and cubs have It's like they built Disneyland around Wrigley Field.
17:04
Speaker 1: Now they got all that money, they own everything around there,
17:06
Speaker 1: so they're good to go. They're good to go. All right?
17:10

23:11
Speaker 1: On a newbie night, hooray for newbie night. Let's say
23:14
Speaker 1: hello to any meenie miney moe. Let's say hello to
23:16
Speaker 1: Jack who's in d C. What's going on? Jack? Welcome?
23:22
Speaker 6: Hey, Maler loved the show.
23:23
Speaker 1: Thank you, Jack. You got a very deep you got
23:26
Speaker 1: a deep voice, got some good pipes going there. Yeah, solid.
23:30
Speaker 6: Yeah, as a Giants fan, I heard that the I
23:35
Speaker 6: think as a GM or the owner was saying, we're
23:37
Speaker 6: gonna stick with Russell Wilson and we're gonna start with
23:41
Speaker 6: Jameis Winston and not draft the quarterback that number three?
23:44
Speaker 6: Really really Winston and Wilson. Now you're gonna stick with really?
23:51
Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, I don't know what's going on with your
23:53
Speaker 1: phone there, but I not that I don't enjoy the static.
23:55
Speaker 1: But you do understand though, Jack, You've been around man.
23:57
Speaker 1: You know it's lying season. Jack. You know it's lying season. Right,
24:01
Speaker 1: You're gonna say that, and you're like, and we don't
24:03
Speaker 1: have to draft a quarterback. That tells me this is
24:06
Speaker 1: how I interpret that, Jack. First of all, it tells
24:08
Speaker 1: me that this Joe Shane guy, that gam of the
24:10
Speaker 1: Giants is playing the game. Secondly, that he likely thinks
24:15
Speaker 1: that if you look at the big board there in
24:18
Speaker 1: the draft, that there's a team that would be willing
24:20
Speaker 1: to trade up to get a player, but not but
24:24
Speaker 1: not a quarterback, meaning like you know, if you if
24:27
Speaker 1: the draft shakes. Now where abdual Carter is there at
24:29
Speaker 1: number three, like somebody might be I think that's the
24:32
Speaker 1: top player in the draft. So somebody might trade for
24:34
Speaker 1: Abdul Carter. But if they think the Giants are going
24:37
Speaker 1: to take a quarterback, then why would you bother trading
24:40
Speaker 1: because you just trade with the Patriots or somebody after
24:43
Speaker 1: the Giants because it doesn't matter.
24:45
Speaker 6: So, but why would you not take a quarterback? You
24:47
Speaker 6: got Sador, You've got Jackson Dart there, or you got
24:52
Speaker 6: what or I've heard of people say that Tyler Suure
24:55
Speaker 6: out of I think, I want to say Louisville, but
24:58
Speaker 6: I'm not sure. But I.
25:02
Speaker 1: Mean, these these quarterbacks get over hyped, they're oversouled, and
25:07
Speaker 1: I don't I'm not impressed with any of them. I
25:11
Speaker 1: don't should Sanders. Those people want to say he shouldn't
25:14
Speaker 1: be drafted at all in the first round, he should
25:16
Speaker 1: be a second round pick, and and they always get overdrafted.
25:20
Speaker 1: So I would I wouldn't worry too much about it.
25:22
Speaker 1: I've already gotten I got paralysis of analysis from the
25:26
Speaker 1: NFL draft. I'm already being on it. Yeah, all right,

28:02
Speaker 7: Lincoln Heights since she did your time there, I did.

28:11
Speaker 7: Yeah, right there, you made it out in life. You're
28:14
Speaker 7: one of us, that's.
28:16
Speaker 1: Right, man. I got street, Craig Parrito, I got Street
28:19
Speaker 1: Craig Baby. I spent seven years there, and I actually
28:23
Speaker 1: loved it. Was great. It was central to everything. Great location.
28:26
Speaker 1: Now the crime not so much, but the location was wonderful,
28:30
Speaker 1: really good. So anyway, yeah, it's it's a great it's
28:35
Speaker 1: a great location. Yeah. That was the when I lived
28:37
Speaker 1: in Lincoln Heights in LA I was on a date
28:40
Speaker 1: and I was ending the date and down the street
28:44
Speaker 1: there were all these people running, like down from down
28:47
Speaker 1: the street. I've told the story on the podcast the
28:49
Speaker 1: Fifth Hour podcast in the past, So like as any
28:52
Speaker 1: a date, and all these people were running and like screaming,
28:56
Speaker 1: like women are screaming their shoes off, and there were
28:58
Speaker 1: in dresses and stuff, and there was like there was
29:00
Speaker 1: some warehouse down the street that they had rented out,
29:03
Speaker 1: and I guess there was like a shooting. And that's
29:06
Speaker 1: a tough way to end a date. That does that.
29:08
Speaker 1: You don't really you don't get a second date on that.
29:10
Speaker 1: I know I wasn't involved in it, but that was
29:12
Speaker 1: rather well, it all depends.
29:13
Speaker 5: On how you react in the moment, too.
29:15
Speaker 1: Is that right?
29:16
Speaker 8: Yeah?
29:17
Speaker 1: Well, as you know, I was stoic, and because I
29:20
Speaker 1: had no idea what was happening. If I'd known what
29:21
Speaker 1: was happening, I probably would have had a different reaction,
29:23
Speaker 1: but I didn't realize at the time what was going on.
29:26
Speaker 1: It put two and two together. Let's go, let's go
29:29
Speaker 1: back to the phones. It's at newbe night, all right,
29:31
Speaker 1: for now by night, let's say hello to Let's go
29:35
Speaker 1: to Colin, who's in Idaho. He's gone, he went to
29:39
Speaker 1: go pick potatoes. So instead we'll talk to Jason, who's
29:43
Speaker 1: is he at the border? Is that right? Are you
29:45
Speaker 1: at the border?
29:46
Speaker 4: At?
29:46
Speaker 6: Which?
29:47
Speaker 1: Which border are you at? Jason Santas? Oh, look at
29:51
Speaker 1: you man? Very nice?
29:52
Speaker 4: All right?
29:53
Speaker 1: What you are you working or you're just hanging out.
29:56
Speaker 9: No, I'm done with work and I'm driving to San
30:00
Speaker 9: Francisco because I have to speak in San Francisco tomorrow.
30:04
Speaker 1: Okay, well, this is a good time to drive. There's
30:06
Speaker 1: no traffic. Just keep your windows rolled up. You don't
30:09
Speaker 1: want to smell the cow stuff.
30:11
Speaker 9: You know, it's all strategic. That's why I'm driving now.
30:14
Speaker 9: It's I can bypass LA traffic.
30:16
Speaker 1: The way to do it, man, so way to do it.
30:18
Speaker 1: So what's on your mind?
30:21
Speaker 9: I was as I was driving through downtown Tijuana, I
30:24
Speaker 9: heard what you were saying about the creation of the NCAA,
30:29
Speaker 9: which might have been, you know, mildly facetious, but I
30:33
Speaker 9: think it is important to remind people that the creation
30:37
Speaker 9: of that governing body was literally designed to make sure
30:40
Speaker 9: that there's a demarketing line between commerce and students, and
30:45
Speaker 9: it's the creation of the student athlete that comes from that.
30:49
Speaker 9: That creation of that governing body.
30:51
Speaker 1: Well it was, but it was also the student athlete
30:54
Speaker 1: term was to get out of paying lawsuits they didn't want.
30:57
Speaker 1: Yeah they yeah. Yeah. A lot of people don't know that.
31:01
Speaker 1: It's what about studentley, But it was just a term
31:03
Speaker 1: because they didn't want to pay workers workers comp because
31:06
Speaker 1: there was some guy from Illinois right as he died
31:08
Speaker 1: and his wife, I guess, sued or.
31:13
Speaker 9: Life suit. Yeah, And there was also a lot of
31:15
Speaker 9: lawsuits for like potential loss wages because of career ending.
31:20
Speaker 6: Injuries early on.
31:22
Speaker 9: So usually when these governing bodies are formed, it's always
31:25
Speaker 9: a labor dispute. And I think one of the things
31:29
Speaker 9: that we forget when it comes to athletics, especially college athletics,
31:32
Speaker 9: because I've been listening to a lot of people talk
31:35
Speaker 9: about the young man from Tennessee, and I've heard some
31:40
Speaker 9: interesting things where people come from when they talk about it.
31:44
Speaker 9: But we're not at this new and I've heard you
31:47
Speaker 9: say this before. There's a new paradigm when we talk
31:50
Speaker 9: about college athletics where I don't know if a lot
31:53
Speaker 9: of people can really wrap their minds around this new
31:57
Speaker 9: athlete because we're still kind of stuck in the student
32:00
Speaker 9: fleet paradigm where someone should be happy just to be
32:03
Speaker 9: there or happy to get the money, and in kind
32:06
Speaker 9: of a society where cities are destroyed over moving for
32:11
Speaker 9: more money. So why wouldn't the student leave the school
32:16
Speaker 9: for the potential of more money.
32:18
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, no, there do need there have to be
32:22
Speaker 1: some baselines, like you can't just like leave endlessly. There
32:28
Speaker 1: have to be periods of free agency because you've gotta
32:31
Speaker 1: make it, make it fair, and it's not. You know,
32:34
Speaker 1: the college basketball thing was absurd where guys were in
32:38
Speaker 1: the portal while the tournament was going on. They were
32:41
Speaker 1: entering the port I mean, what are you doing?
32:44
Speaker 9: It's like you would you agree though, And I don't. Look,
32:48
Speaker 9: there needs to be some sort of regulation. I don't
32:50
Speaker 9: know how it's going to come down. I do think
32:52
Speaker 9: it does need to be federal regulation.
32:55
Speaker 1: I know, but I hate it's going to be federal.
32:57
Speaker 1: I got to leave it there. I hate federal regulation,
32:59
Speaker 1: but it's going to be federal regulations. Like I listen,
33:01
Speaker 1: I work at Fox Sports Radio. If you know, somebody
33:04
Speaker 1: another network contacted me. I couldn't just in the middle
33:07
Speaker 1: of the night leave and go work for them. I'm
33:10
Speaker 1: not allowed to. But if you're playing college football at
33:14
Speaker 1: Oklahoma and you know, you want to play at Alabama
33:17
Speaker 1: and you find somebody and you just end up a
33:19
Speaker 1: portal and you boom, you're on your way. So anyway,
33:23
Speaker 1: all right, it is the Ben Mahler Show, The Ben
