• 0:32
  Speaker 1: With a text I received from Taylor. He's in New York.
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: He's not here the games being played in San Antonio.
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: He wants to be in New York. He wants to
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: feel the buzz. He wants to be around the action.
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: All the action is in Texas tonight, but yet he
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: is still there. This is the text I got from
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: Mikeya on a Friday, from Taylor, Hey just got to
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: New York. I might be late.
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: I forgot pants. What is happening?
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: Well how.
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: Let's explain, Taylor, explain to the audience what that'll happened here?
• 1:06
  Speaker 4: So I was on a six am flight out of
• 1:08
  Speaker 4: Fort Lauderdale this morning. Last night I was too tired.
• 1:12
  Speaker 4: I was like, I'm gonna do the thing where I
• 1:13
  Speaker 4: go to sleep and I wake up early to pack.
• 1:15
  Speaker 4: I wake up about four am. The lights are all dark.
• 1:19
  Speaker 4: I'm trying not to wake up my girlfriend. I'm throwing
• 1:22
  Speaker 4: things in a suitcase. I get to the airport, Mikey,
• 1:25
  Speaker 4: I'm looking at my bag. I packed every Knicks T
• 1:28
  Speaker 4: shirt I own, right, every Knicks T shirt I own.
• 1:31
  Speaker 4: I have two jerseys in said suitcase and I'm looking.
• 1:34
  Speaker 4: I'm like, man, how did I fit so many T shirts?
• 1:37
  Speaker 4: How did I fit so many jerseys? And I'm trying
• 1:39
  Speaker 4: to map out my outfit for this watch party later?
• 1:43
  Speaker 4: Where are my pants? No pants packed? Zero pants?
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's unfortunate. How many Nick shirts do you own?
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: Just out of curiosity?
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: I mean in this.
• 1:53
  Speaker 4: Suitcase right now, there's about twenty five.
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: But no pants.
• 2:00
  Speaker 5: That's funny, you say that, Taylor quick aside, this is
• 2:03
  Speaker 5: as close to a Nick's outfit as I can give you.
• 2:06
  Speaker 4: I've got an orange T shirt and a Yankees hat.
• 2:08
  Speaker 5: Yes, that's as close to a Nick's outfit as I own,
• 2:11
  Speaker 5: and I wore it for you today.
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: Actually, yes, But let's focus on Taylor's problem here, his
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: predicament because he has no pants.
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: He only has t shirts with no pants.
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: Did you bring shorts because it's summertime up there it
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: should be warm?
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: You don't really technically you don't need pants right now.
• 2:25
  Speaker 4: So the only bottoms I have are the shorts I
• 2:28
  Speaker 4: wore onto the plane, right the only bottom. Somehow, I
• 2:31
  Speaker 4: have more jerseys than I have pants.
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: Okay, so you have to go out and purchase pants
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: and shorts. Is that what you're saying here? I mean,
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: what are you gonna do?
• 2:40
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm gonna have to. I'm have to find somewhere
• 2:42
  Speaker 4: to go. I didn't have time to go before this
• 2:45
  Speaker 4: because of the flight and the drive into where I live.
• 2:50
  Speaker 4: So I am I'm currently pantsless. Okay, we're just wearing
• 2:53
  Speaker 4: the shorts that we have right now. And it was
• 2:55
  Speaker 4: kind of a situation that I just said, you know what,
• 2:58
  Speaker 4: Later tailor is gonna faitigure this out. Current tailor. He's
• 3:02
  Speaker 4: enjoying the present, He's enjoyed that the knicker in the finals.
• 3:05
  Speaker 4: Later tailor has to figure out what store he's going
• 3:08
  Speaker 4: to go to the nearest Abercrombie he could run to
• 3:11
  Speaker 4: so he could buy some Schortzer pants.
• 3:13
  Speaker 5: Okay, this is the same later tailor that was packing
• 3:15
  Speaker 5: this morning, as opposed to the current tailor who would
• 3:19
  Speaker 5: have put pants in his suitcase.
• 3:21
  Speaker 4: Yes, a later tailor didn't.
• 3:22
  Speaker 5: And this is the same guy we're going to trust
• 3:24
  Speaker 5: to figure out the situation later.
• 3:26
  Speaker 4: Okay, just making sure we get all Yeah, current current
• 3:29
  Speaker 4: tailor last night kicked the problem to later tailor.
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: Tonguer it out road. Yes, yes, we understand.
• 3:37
  Speaker 4: Like if I packed last night, current tailor, there's almost
• 3:40
  Speaker 4: a zero percent chance current tailor forgets to pack pants
• 3:44
  Speaker 4: at eight pm, twelve hours in advance of his flight,
• 3:48
  Speaker 4: when I'm worried about scheduling an uber and we're getting
• 3:53
  Speaker 4: closer and closer to the boarding time. You could see
• 3:55
  Speaker 4: how I forgot past.
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: He needs to calm down, Mikey. He is just all
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: over the place. He is Kareene. He's like ariy El Hawane.
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: He does it. Everyone's emotional.
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: They're forgetting their pants, they're not a certain way they're going,
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: they're walking into people, and strangely, in New York, everyone's saying, hey,
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: no problem, there's no fighting. We're all unified by the Knicks.
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: But everyone's going crazy. And I would have preferred tailor
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: paint the picture of him doing the radio show without
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: pants or shorts.
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: That would have been fantastic.
• 4:21
  Speaker 4: Yes, I'm sitting on the plane in seven A and
• 4:25
  Speaker 4: it was almost like the scene and Home Alone, where
• 4:27
  Speaker 4: everybody's turning and going Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, and then the
• 4:31
  Speaker 4: mom screams Kevin. But I was just screaming pants.
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: Any Nick fans on that flight, they're all headed the
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: San Antonio, I mean yeah.
• 4:40
  Speaker 4: And nobody was going Nobody was heading to Newark, New
• 4:42
  Speaker 4: Jersey this morning.
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: So you're gonna go to the nearest Abercrumbie and Fitch
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: to get yourself some expensive pants and shorts right after
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: the show here, Yeah.
• 4:52
  Speaker 4: And like I'm here until the end of the finals, right.
• 4:55
  Speaker 4: I just very clearly was not prepared for this trip,
• 4:59
  Speaker 4: because I have every time I go to a Knicks
• 5:02
  Speaker 4: game it's been in the playoffs recently, and they have
• 5:05
  Speaker 4: the towel and the shirt giveaways. I packed. I packed
• 5:09
  Speaker 4: the towels, I packed the shirts, I packed the foam finger,
• 5:12
  Speaker 4: I got it.
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: Yes, zero pants.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: Yes, you can go out on Madison Square Garden's floor
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: right now. And have a T shirt cannon and have
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: enough shirts to go around for an entire session. If
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: you would love that job, wouldn't you. I'm looking at
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: your face right now. That would be a dream.
• 5:26
  Speaker 4: You would lit up.
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: He would quit this job to be the guy who
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: shoots T shirts out of a cannon at the Mecca.
• 5:34
  Speaker 4: I think a T shirt cannon is one of the best,
• 5:37
  Speaker 4: most underrated things at a sporting event. I've looked at
• 5:41
  Speaker 4: times like, hey, how much would it be just to
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: have a T shirt cannon? And my girlfriend's looking at
• 5:45
  Speaker 4: me when I have our credit card being like, you're
• 5:47
  Speaker 4: not putting a T shirt cannon.
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: On this credit card. I'd listen to her seriously.
• 5:55
  Speaker 4: Yeah, but if she's like, hey, Taylor, can you hand
• 5:57
  Speaker 4: me a T shirt? Imagine if I could just if
• 5:59
  Speaker 4: I could just load it up and just down the hallway.
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: Yes, but why would she do that? Why would she
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: ask you for a T shirt? I'm like you, she
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: doesn't forget anything. She is properly packed, she's there, she
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: has everything stored away.
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: Does she know that you forgot your pants? Have you
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: been her aware yet?
• 6:16
  Speaker 4: Yeah? Yeah, she was like the first text message, like
• 6:19
  Speaker 4: she's like, hey, hope you have a safe flight. Text
• 6:22
  Speaker 4: me when you land, And the first text that she
• 6:24
  Speaker 4: woke up to was no pants, no pants, I'm gonna
• 6:29
  Speaker 4: overnight me my pants.
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: Wait no, but Mikey, I'm guessing that Taylor's girlfriend knew
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: before Taylor did that he didn't.
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: Back any pants like that would be my guess.
• 6:38
  Speaker 4: No, so she didn't know because this is the situation
• 6:42
  Speaker 4: I kind of ran into. And I'm wondering if you
• 6:43
  Speaker 4: guys have ever had it where your significant others going
• 6:45
  Speaker 4: on a trip. Yeah, and the flight is early in
• 6:48
  Speaker 4: the morning, Like if my girlfriend was flying out at
• 6:50
  Speaker 4: six am and she asked me, Hey, Taylor, I need
• 6:53
  Speaker 4: you to drag me to the airport at four am. Sure,
• 6:56
  Speaker 4: no problem. But when the situation is reversed, a four
• 7:00
  Speaker 4: am flight to her was an instant no go. She's like, hey,
• 7:04
  Speaker 4: you're taking an Uber Yeah, I'm not waking up at
• 7:07
  Speaker 4: four am.
• 7:07
  Speaker 3: Yep, I've experienced that.
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: Yes, I'll take her to the airport anytime, any day,
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: does it matter. But God forbid, I asked her to
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: drop me off of the airport. I'm spending one hundred
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: and twenty on Uber Black.
• 7:18
  Speaker 5: I mean, Jesus, I flew home from overseas and my
• 7:24
  Speaker 5: wife was supposed to pick me up at JFK.
• 7:27
  Speaker 4: And I landed and I said, hey, I'm here. Just
• 7:31
  Speaker 4: where should I meet you?
• 7:32
  Speaker 5: She goes, I sent you a car, I sent you
• 7:36
  Speaker 5: an Uber, and I don't think I've ever been so
• 7:39
  Speaker 5: hurt in my life.
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Taylor, so you took an uber to the airport
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: this morning?
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: Are you planning on expensing that? To me?
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: How is this going to work? I didn't tell you
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: to go to New York. I just said you could
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: go to New York. No, but I didn't say I
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: didn't say, hey, go to New York. I just said
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: he asked me if he could go, and I said, sure,
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: go ahead.
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: You know.
• 7:56
  Speaker 5: The amount of content I know Taylor is going to
• 7:59
  Speaker 5: walk away from from this week.
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you can expense the work, Tralliant. It's really on
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: my behalf. You're calling it, thank you very free with
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: all the money. Yeah, if it was your money, would
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: you call it?
• 8:11
  Speaker 4: Absolutely not?
• 8:11
  Speaker 3: I don't have money.
• 8:14
  Speaker 4: Here. How about this for a trade off. I won't
• 8:17
  Speaker 4: expense the uber, Yeah, but I could expense the pants.
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: Okay, I'd rather the uber. You're gonna go to Abercrombie
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: and get twelve pairs of pants if I say yes
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: to that, and probably some shorts and some surety, you know,
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: I'm not gonna look at the itemized bill because I
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: never do.
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: I mean, why would I?
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: Oh Jesus, how do we feel going into tonight's game?
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: Because I think a lot of Nick fans would say
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: this is a house money game, and I say, no,
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: it's not a house money game. When you haven't been
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: to the finals since nineteen ninety nine and you so
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: desperately want to win an NBA championship. I don't view
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: tonight as a house money gain. I view tonight as
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: the night the Knicks can win the championship and put
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: the series away. And I think the Knicks are going
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: to have that exact same attitude. I'm not going to say.
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: I'm not saying San Antonio's not going to be a
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: desperate basketball team.
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: They are.
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: They know they have to win this game in order
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: for them to have a shot at winning an NBA title.
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: But the Knicks also know, and I like this Knicks
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: team's mentality, they also know, Hey, we win tonight.
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: We go up too. Oh.
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: Series is a rap. Going back to Madison Square Garden.
• 9:24
  Speaker 4: I think Knicks fans it's fair if they look at
• 9:27
  Speaker 4: this game as a house money game, But I don't
• 9:30
  Speaker 4: think the team goes in with that mentality, because if
• 9:32
  Speaker 4: you told most Knicks fans, hey, before this series starts,
• 9:36
  Speaker 4: you're going to be coming back to Madison Square Garden
• 9:38
  Speaker 4: and it's going to be split one one one hundred
• 9:41
  Speaker 4: percent of Knicks fans are are taking that almost every time.
• 9:45
  Speaker 4: But where I think this Knicks team has been different,
• 9:48
  Speaker 4: and it's kind of shown they've been different this postseason.
• 9:51
  Speaker 4: Their mentality when when they have teams backed up against
• 9:55
  Speaker 4: the wall, they'll put your foot on your neck and
• 9:58
  Speaker 4: crush you. Like you look at the three close out
• 10:00
  Speaker 4: games from Cleveland and Philadelphia and Atlanta. The Knicks have
• 10:05
  Speaker 4: won those closeout games by an average point of almost
• 10:09
  Speaker 4: forty points per game. Like this team seems to play
• 10:12
  Speaker 4: their best when you would expect the other team to
• 10:14
  Speaker 4: be at their most desperate.
• 10:16
  Speaker 5: In my opinion, the Knicks had no business winning Game
• 10:19
  Speaker 5: one after like ten days off agree and then Jalen
• 10:23
  Speaker 5: Brunson getting hurt twice in the game, Like they had
• 10:26
  Speaker 5: no business winning that game in San Antonio.
• 10:29
  Speaker 4: The fact that they got it. This is a step
• 10:31
  Speaker 4: on their throat game.
• 10:32
  Speaker 5: This is a let's end this season, this series before
• 10:36
  Speaker 5: the Spurs can find themselves getting back into it.
• 10:39
  Speaker 4: This is not the game that you want to lose.
• 10:41
  Speaker 4: I get that.
• 10:42
  Speaker 5: You could say it's house money because oh, we come
• 10:44
  Speaker 5: back one to one.
• 10:45
  Speaker 4: But this is not that.
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: This is this is the time.
• 10:47
  Speaker 5: To win, win the whole series. Tonight, Game two, the
• 10:51
  Speaker 5: most important game of the series.
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: Taylor, I understand what it is you're saying.
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: They already get Listen, they already set They already accomplished
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: what they set out to accomplish, which every road team
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: will tell you win one of two on the road. Okay,
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: but they won game one, and to Mikey's point, they
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: didn't play that well in Game one. They got the
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: Spurs got the Knicks like C plus game. We haven't
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: seen the Knicks a game yet, and granted we haven't
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: seen the Spurs a game yet. And I suspect the
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: Knicks know what they're gonna get tonight. Is San Antonio's
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: a game. And because this team is so uber competitive,
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: with Brunson, with heart, with all these guys who have
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: played together forever, I think they know exactly what they're
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: stepping into tonight with San Antonio, and they need to
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: match that intensity. And because they care enough, and because
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: they don't look at this as a house money game,
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: they look at this as hey, let's leave no doubt,
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: let's sweep the Spurs. They will match their intensity because
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: they are not complacent just being up one game to nothing.
• 11:47
  Speaker 3: They want to be up to well going back home.
• 11:50
  Speaker 4: It is strange that both teams are going into this
• 11:53
  Speaker 4: game too saying we're gonna play a lot better than
• 11:56
  Speaker 4: game one and let's see who's best is going to
• 11:58
  Speaker 4: be better than the other team's best. But if you're
• 12:01
  Speaker 4: the Spurs and the Spurs are saying, hey, we're going
• 12:03
  Speaker 4: to be playing better in game two, we've kind of
• 12:06
  Speaker 4: heard that narrative all playoffs of teams thinking that they're
• 12:09
  Speaker 4: going to have a response for this next team, and
• 12:11
  Speaker 4: then next team having this overwhelming response. Like Kenny Atkinson
• 12:15
  Speaker 4: last series was saying, we're up analytically in this series
• 12:17
  Speaker 4: after three games. Kenny Atkinson, how did that work out
• 12:21
  Speaker 4: for you in game four? You didn't even show up
• 12:23
  Speaker 4: in Game four?
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: Put it on the pall as Kenny Atkinson getting ready
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: right now for Game two of the NBA Finals.
• 12:30
  Speaker 4: Analytically, they're right there.
• 12:34
  Speaker 3: I forgot about poor Kenny Atkinson, but he's still a coach.
• 12:38
  Speaker 3: So I'll go ahead, Taylor Stu.
• 12:40
  Speaker 4: I have a little game here that I'd like to
• 12:42
  Speaker 4: play with you guys. Okay, Yeah, it's called something or Nothing.
• 12:47
  Speaker 3: Oh okay, I like it. Keep going just.
• 12:50
  Speaker 4: Off the name alone. You're you like it?
• 12:52
  Speaker 3: Well? Of course, something or Nothing. I've been waiting to
• 12:54
  Speaker 3: play this game my entire life. Where's it been? Go ahead?
• 12:56
  Speaker 3: How do we play it?
• 12:58
  Speaker 4: So you'd expect a big response from the Spurs in
• 13:00
  Speaker 4: Game two, but after the Game one loss, Dylan Harper
• 13:05
  Speaker 4: reposted a TikTok that was slandering Darren Fox, saying that
• 13:10
  Speaker 4: darn Fox paid tribute to James Harden with his three
• 13:14
  Speaker 4: of thirteen statline. Now he on reposted it afterwards, so
• 13:19
  Speaker 4: it might have been a mistake. But something or Nothing.
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: Wow, I love that Dylan Harper. He's a rookie, right,
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: I mean, I love this kid. He was their best
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: player in Game one and somehow they sat him in
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: the fourth quarter. This is something Dylan Harper taking shots
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: at his own teammate for being bad. James Harden's not
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: a compliment, James Harden's an insult Jim.
• 13:44
  Speaker 4: Jimbo. This is something I mean.
• 13:46
  Speaker 5: This is because no matter what happens, it was still
• 13:49
  Speaker 5: on his phone, it was still in his hand, even
• 13:53
  Speaker 5: if he accidentally reposted it. Yes, someone sent it to
• 13:56
  Speaker 5: him to say, hey, check this out. It's something he
• 14:00
  Speaker 5: talked about it.
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: And more importantly, it's been sent to the Aaron Fox,
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: so he knows it's out there and he knows it's
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: courtesy of his teammate Dylan Harper.
• 14:06
  Speaker 3: This is something Dayler.
• 14:08
  Speaker 4: And it wasn't like Harper, you know, was in the
• 14:11
  Speaker 4: game down the stretch, like he got benched in favor
• 14:14
  Speaker 4: for Fox. It's it doesn't seem like it's a coincidence
• 14:18
  Speaker 4: that this is post. This is coming up on his timeline.
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: Yes, what a time we live in. Dylan Harper sending
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: a message to his coach and doing so this is
• 14:25

  Speaker 1: All right, thank you to Sham's there for joining us.
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: Ad Nan Vik is going to join us in just
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: a little bit. Mikey A has an issue going on
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: with his kid. He needs some advice here. But before
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: we get to that, Taylor, what is going on? The
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: Knicks are auctioning off some court side seeds. I'm being
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: told which game is this for?
• 15:26
  Speaker 3: How much of these tickets going for? What are we
• 15:28
  Speaker 3: doing here?
• 15:29
  Speaker 4: Yeah? So the Knicks are auctioning off two celebrity row
• 15:33
  Speaker 4: tickets for Game three. Proceeds from the auction will benefit
• 15:36
  Speaker 4: the Garden of Dreams Foundation. The total fair market value
• 15:41
  Speaker 4: of the tickets is thirty nine thousand dollars. But do
• 15:45
  Speaker 4: you guys want to take guesses what the current bit
• 15:48
  Speaker 4: is at.
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: So you're auctioning these off to very wealthy people, people
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: who have a lot of money, people who may or
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: may not be Nick fans, who want to take their
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: kids to something special side at Madison Square Garden. It
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: doesn't matter if you're a Nick fan. If your kid
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: wants to see Timothy Shallomey or wants to see some
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: of these celebrities that be up closed, like Greenie's kid,
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: you'll try to get it done. Man, I cannot imagine
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: what people with money are bidding on these particular tickets.
• 16:15
  Speaker 3: Go ahead, Mikey.
• 16:16
  Speaker 5: The other thing about it, though, is because it's going
• 16:19
  Speaker 5: to charity, it could be considered a write off.
• 16:21
  Speaker 3: It is a write off.
• 16:22
  Speaker 5: Yes, so I'm thinking that it is going way higher
• 16:27
  Speaker 5: than even we assume it would go.
• 16:30
  Speaker 4: All right, I'm gonna.
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: Well, hold on a second. So the bidding is ongoing here.
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: So it started at thirty nine thousand, roughly, right, it's ongoing,
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: And when when does bidding close?
• 16:41
  Speaker 3: Taylor? Do we know?
• 16:42
  Speaker 4: I don't know when the bidding closes. It didn't start
• 16:45
  Speaker 4: at thirty It didn't start at thirty nine thousand. They're
• 16:48
  Speaker 4: just telling you that if these tickets were to be sold,
• 16:51
  Speaker 4: they would be sold for thirty nine thousand.
• 16:53
  Speaker 3: Okay, do we know when the auction started? Do we
• 16:55
  Speaker 3: know that? Uh?
• 16:56
  Speaker 4: Yesterday?
• 16:57
  Speaker 3: Okay, So yesterday, Mikey.
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: So you know there's someone out there bidding a lot
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: of money, and then there's another guy coming in and
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: he's going a little more, and it's going to get
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: down to two people. They'll never know who each other.
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: Maybe they will, maybe they're in coots. But usually this
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: is how these things go down. It's one guy versus
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: another guy, and he's trying to flex how much more
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: money he has than that guy. So what do you
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: think the bidding's at right now? Because I think it's astronomical.
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: I think it's somewhere in the six figures.
• 17:23
  Speaker 3: Probably. I was.
• 17:25
  Speaker 4: I was gonna put it at one twenty.
• 17:27
  Speaker 3: I was gonna put it at three point fifty.
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: I was gonna put it at three hundred and fifty
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: thousand dollars for the two tickets.
• 17:32
  Speaker 3: Where is it, Taylor?
• 17:34
  Speaker 4: The current bid five hundred thousand dollars out of here?
• 17:42
  Speaker 3: I can't believe Breedy made that bid.
• 17:48
  Speaker 4: Stu. I was listening to WFA and earlier and Evan
• 17:51
  Speaker 4: Roberts keeps saying that this is a once in a life,
• 17:54
  Speaker 4: lifetime opportunity to see the Knicks play in the finals,
• 17:57
  Speaker 4: and that's why people are spending this kind of money
• 17:59
  Speaker 4: on tickets. Yeah, Tiki Barber kind of rightly pointed out,
• 18:03
  Speaker 4: saying the Knicks made the finals in nineteen ninety nine
• 18:06
  Speaker 4: and nineteen ninety four, so it technically can't be a
• 18:09
  Speaker 4: once in a lifetime opportunity. If over the course of
• 18:13
  Speaker 4: your lifetime you've seen it multiple times.
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: That's fair depending on how long you live, though, I mean,
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: but yes, you're right, if you live a typical life.
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: This is the third time for me. Okay, so I'm
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: a good example here. This is not once in a lifetime.
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: I've seen the Knicks multiple times now playing in the
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: NBA Finals, including being a game away against the Rockets
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: where they.
• 18:33
  Speaker 3: Were up three to two headed back to Euston.
• 18:35
  Speaker 4: I mean, if you live during the times of the
• 18:38
  Speaker 4: bubonic plague, then yes, it was once in a lifetime.
• 18:44
  Speaker 3: It's such a great word, plodding plague.
• 18:50
  Speaker 4: And if you did it, you made it this far. Congratulations.
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: Yes, wait, sold Todd, the price is set? Where is
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: it it?
• 18:59
  Speaker 3: Right now? Who's we don't know the bidder, but the
• 19:01
  Speaker 3: bidding is at where right now?
• 19:03
  Speaker 4: The bidding is at five hundred thousand dollars. Now I
• 19:06
  Speaker 4: can't get it out of my head. Ah here comes,
• 19:09
  Speaker 4: here comes the latest strain of influenza to take us
• 19:11
  Speaker 4: all out. Where do you like, Scott Cumpshit?
• 19:18
  Speaker 3: Where do you think the bidding's going to stop?
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: Because I think we could be seeing a million dollars
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: for these two tapers?
• 19:24
  Speaker 4: Should we out a bid? Five?
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: Here?
• 19:27
  Speaker 3: Not need you to action? Wait?
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: So you want to put in an official bid knowing that
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: that official bid is going to be beat, just so
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: somebody could say, you know what, I'd like to do
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: that as long as they know that bid is coming
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: from me.
• 19:43
  Speaker 3: I want that. Yeah, so I can get some Yes,
• 19:45
  Speaker 3: I want to get some press.
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: Taylor put the bidding at five hundred and one thousand
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: dollars from me?
• 19:50
  Speaker 4: Okay, okay, I actually know somebody. That sound made me
• 19:56
  Speaker 4: think of it. This kid I know from college. He
• 19:59
  Speaker 4: went into marketing, but he also does auctioneering on the
• 20:02
  Speaker 4: side where he's.
• 20:07
  Speaker 3: I wish I could do that.
• 20:09
  Speaker 4: Really, I'll book them on the show, please do.
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: I would just talk as quickly as possible, all jumbled
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: until somehow everything landed in my car. You know, Mikey,
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: do you think we're gonna see north of a million
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: dollars for two court side tickets? And I'm sorry, it
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: looks like we're not going to get to your kid's
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: problem again more.
• 20:30
  Speaker 5: Than I mean, I think we're gonna have to if
• 20:34
  Speaker 5: if we're only twenty four hours into the auction and
• 20:37
  Speaker 5: we're already at half a.
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: Mill, Yeah, yes, yes, because the guy who's at a
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: half million cannot be stopped, the guy who bid a
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: half million dollars.
• 20:45
  Speaker 3: For these two tickets.
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: If you can bid a half million for two tickets,
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: you can go as high as you want.
• 20:50
  Speaker 3: Someone's gonna come back in.
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: I'm telling you, the guy who's had a half million
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: right now is not letting these tickets go anywhere else
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: but in his pocket.
• 20:56
  Speaker 3: I'm telling you that.
• 20:57
  Speaker 4: Yes, anytime people say you could just write it off,
• 21:01
  Speaker 4: I almost don't even understand what that means.
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: Well, it just right off, people, It's a write off, right, Okay,
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: I don't know what it means either, but I know
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: it's right off.
• 21:11
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you just write it off. Yeah, it is right
• 21:13
  Speaker 3: it off. But I'm taking advantage of it.
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: I mean, be sure to catch live editions of Stu
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: Gotson Company live weekdays at three pm Eastern twelve pm Pacific.
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: At nan vurking to join us at about fifteen minutes.
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: We are reeling I mean Nix and Spurs tonight Game two.
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: It's such an interesting game. It's why Game two is
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: so fascinating to me, because you know, you have the
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: Spurs trying to get back into the series and you
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: have the Knicks trying to end the series.
• 21:44
  Speaker 3: What is Shay Serrano saying here, Taylor, I.
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: Am told that he has a a Stu Gotts type
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: take here about Jalen Brunson.
• 21:52
  Speaker 3: What is the take?
• 21:54
  Speaker 4: So Shay is a Spurs fan, but he's also just
• 21:57
  Speaker 4: a great NBA commentator too. He's he said, if Jalen
• 22:01
  Speaker 4: Brunson pulls this off, it's gonna be like a Dirk
• 22:04
  Speaker 4: Nowitzki level championship where the one championship is actually worth
• 22:09
  Speaker 4: like three championships.
• 22:11
  Speaker 3: Put it on the poll.
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: If Jalen Brunson wins a championship this year, isn't like
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: winning three. I never thought that with Dirk. I know
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: it validated his career. He needed a title to be
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: considered one of the all time greats. I didn't feel
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: like when Dirk won that NBA championship, though he won
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: three titles, this is different though.
• 22:29
  Speaker 3: This is the Mecca. It's not Dallas. This means more.
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: So I am willing to get Brunson three championships if
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: he merely wins one. But I am not willing to
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: agree with anybody who says Dirk on that night where
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: he won.
• 22:42
  Speaker 3: His championship is only championship that he won three? No,
• 22:46
  Speaker 3: not willing to do that. Yes, Mikey, So.
• 22:49
  Speaker 4: Is he saying that because it's the Knicks.
• 22:51
  Speaker 5: Is he saying that because of Jalen Brunson's career arc
• 22:54
  Speaker 5: up till this point where he was doubted everywhere? Or
• 22:56
  Speaker 5: is he saying just because the West is supposed to
• 22:59
  Speaker 5: be so much better right now and Wemby's this alien
• 23:03
  Speaker 5: that's going to dominate the NBA for the next two decades.
• 23:07
  Speaker 5: Why exactly is this one worth three?
• 23:10
  Speaker 4: So?
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: I think this one is worth three because so they're
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: different championships, right, So, Jalen Brunson is still on the ascent,
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: He is still.
• 23:19
  Speaker 3: On the upward trajectory.
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: Right he has not done winning championships where Dirk won
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: his championship late in his career. Everyone kept saying Dirk
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: needs to win a championship to kind of validate being
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: one of the all time greats. I did not, at
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: any moment think to myself that Dirk winning this was
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: like Dirk winning three. No one cares about the Mavericks
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: that care about Dirk. He validated his career. I'll give
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: him one and a half. But Jalen Brunson, this is three.
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: I mean, the Knicks have been starving for this, and
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: it's the NBA's most important organization. I don't care about Boston,
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: I don't care about the Lakers. This is the NBA's
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: number one market. It's everyone's number one market. Every league
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: wants the teams in New York, whether they admit it
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: or not, to be not just good, but championship good.
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: And the Knicks are here. And so for Jalen, I
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: am fine. One equals three for Dirt, one equals one
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: and a half.
• 24:09
  Speaker 3: How about that?
• 24:10
  Speaker 4: So I've been working on this formula one. It's just
• 24:15
  Speaker 4: the title. It counts as one title already for Jalen Brunson,
• 24:18
  Speaker 4: just like it would for any standard person. Ye the
• 24:21
  Speaker 4: second title than you is because he's six foot two
• 24:25
  Speaker 4: and under and the best player on the team. And
• 24:27
  Speaker 4: we've heard Becky Hammond say you can't win with a
• 24:31
  Speaker 4: player that short. The second title is because of Jalen
• 24:34
  Speaker 4: Brunton's height. The third title, Stu, is exactly what you mentioned.
• 24:38
  Speaker 4: If you win in New York, it counts for a bonus.
• 24:42
  Speaker 4: That's where That's where I think the three titles is
• 24:44
  Speaker 4: coming from.
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: So this is weird because Mikey everyone expected Dirt to
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: eventually win a title, and he eventually did. I don't
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: think anyone ever expected Jalen Brunson to be the best
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: guy on a team that's going to win an NBA championship,
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: including Becky Hammond.
• 24:57
  Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying, it's crazy.
• 25:00
  Speaker 4: I agree.
• 25:01
  Speaker 5: I mean, it's just I was curious as to Serrano's
• 25:03
  Speaker 5: thinking as to why exactly he's giving, why he's comparing it.
• 25:07
  Speaker 3: No, I understand that, and I gotta be honest with you.
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: I love Shay, Okay, he's on my Mott Rushmore of
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: Spurs fans along with Michelle Beadle.
• 25:13
  Speaker 3: And I don't have two more for you, Okay. I
• 25:15
  Speaker 3: don't like to take I like it.
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: If it's just isolated on Brunson, I don't need any
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: sort of comparisons to Dirk. What Brunson is doing is
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: vastly different than what Dirk did.
• 25:25
  Speaker 4: And by my formula, Derek Cheeters five titles since all
• 25:28
  Speaker 4: five were one in New York. Yeah, Derek Jeter actually
• 25:31
  Speaker 4: has ten titles.
• 25:31
  Speaker 3: No he doesn't.
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: He has five? Right, No, actually he has three in
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: my personal record book. Those teams were too good, right place,
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: right time. Hall of Fame put him on the Pirates.
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: Tell me howny titles yet? Now, if he won one
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: on the Pirates, Okay, if Derek Jeter won one in Pittsburgh,
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: that would count as five.
• 25:46
  Speaker 3: But there's no way. I'm like, you're getting carried away.
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: You're excited about the Dicks, you're excited about Brunson winning
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: three championships at once.
• 25:53
  Speaker 3: I am not going to allow you.
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: To use this opportunity to tell me that Derek jeters
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: five World Series champ chips aren't now doubled and now
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: they're ten.
• 26:03
  Speaker 3: I'm not allowing it.
• 26:04
  Speaker 4: No, Wow, Jogi Bears got twenty exactly this guy, you
• 26:11
  Speaker 4: get it.
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: This coming from the guy who says Elijah Wan doesn't
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: have any, Durant doesn't have any, and Jordan has eight,
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: but those make sense. Jeter's five counting is ten, don't
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: make sense. Brunton's one counting is three that makes sense,
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: but not Jeter's five counting is ten. What are you doing, you, Mikey?
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: Why you all fired up about the Bears moving to Indiana?
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: What has happened to that.
• 26:35
  Speaker 5: The Bears had some vote where they're now starting to
• 26:39
  Speaker 5: move forward with moving their stadium, their home field to Indiana,
• 26:44
  Speaker 5: outside of not only Chicago, but outside of the state
• 26:46
  Speaker 5: of Illinois. And now I'm looking at it and I'm
• 26:49
  Speaker 5: going Indiana College the.
• 26:53
  Speaker 4: Bears they're coming up. Yeah, is Indiana the mecca of football?
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: Now, I don't think it's Indiana College. You made it
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: sound like some sort of community college. It's Indiana, Indiana, Indiana, right,
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: I understand no one knows Indiana right now. They just
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: started taking over. It's gonna be weird because Caleb Williams
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: took a picture from Madden for the cover with the
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: Chicago skyline behind them, and they have to change that
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: up now, right, It's got.
• 27:21
  Speaker 4: Does like Hendersonville or something. India.
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: Taylor put it on the poll. Does Indiana have a skylight?
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: Does Hammond, Indiana have a skylight? And is that skyline
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: always cloudy?
• 27:36
  Speaker 4: To me, this this Bear story is just a bluff,
• 27:39
  Speaker 4: right Like, I won't believe the Bears will be playing
• 27:42
  Speaker 4: football in Indiana until I actually see that stadium being
• 27:46
  Speaker 4: built and the Bears play that first game in Indiana.
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't think most people will believe it until
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: it's done. It seems like a leverage play, but I
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: think Mikey's saying it's getting pretty close to not being
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: a leverage play anymore.
• 27:58
  Speaker 3: They're almost had a time Chicago.
• 27:59
  Speaker 5: Yes, that's really what it is. It's a year ago.
• 28:04
  Speaker 5: I would have agreed with you. But like the more
• 28:06
  Speaker 5: and more we keep doing this, and nobody is blinking
• 28:09
  Speaker 5: in Chicago to be like, all right, fine, we're gonna
• 28:11
  Speaker 5: do this and this and this, and we're going.
• 28:13
  Speaker 4: To keep the Bears in Chicago.
• 28:15
  Speaker 5: It seems like they're bluffing to the point where they're
• 28:18
  Speaker 5: going to actually have to go through with it.
• 28:20
  Speaker 3: Right, Well, the Bears aren't bluffing.
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: The Bears are just trying to get a stadium deal,
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: and of course they would love it to be in Chicago,
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: but no, one in Chicago was responding the way they
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: want them to respond, So therefore they have to go.
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: It seems like they're going to have to go to Indiana.
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: But again, I'm with tell her on this. I won't
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: believe it until I see it.
• 28:36
  Speaker 4: So the be and Bear stands for bluffing and not blinking.
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, yeah, you proud of that one.
• 28:44
  Speaker 4: I was just gonna let you have it.
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: They have the best quarterback I think in the NFL.
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: Or he's gonna be the best quarterback of the NFL.
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: That guy signed up the play games in Chicago. He
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: did not sign up the play games in Henderson or
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: wherever the hell it is Indiana.
• 29:06
  Speaker 4: Where where did Sims have him?
• 29:09
  Speaker 3: Caleb Williams just well, he had him crying apparently.
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: But I believe seventh, yes, seventh, seventh on his list
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: right now, that's a guy who could easily be number
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: one by next year. The Bears are going, why are
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: you saying he's overrated now the Chicago Yeah, but he
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: has lessened his expectations, because you would agree the Indiana
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: Bears they have no expectations. The Chicago Bears major expectations.
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: Perhaps this works out for Caleb Williams. In some sort
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: of weird way, Caleb.
• 29:39
  Speaker 4: Williams is going to be the fourth best quarterback in
• 29:41
  Speaker 4: the state of Indiana.
• 29:42
  Speaker 5: It's going to be Daniel Jones, whoever is in Bloomington
• 29:45
  Speaker 5: and whoever is in South Bend.
• 29:47
  Speaker 3: Indiana is going to have two NFL teams.
• 29:52
  Speaker 4: And Notre Dame.
• 29:53
  Speaker 3: Yes, well how do you navigate? And Notre Dame? Right?
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: And of course the greatest of them all Kurt Signetti
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: and the Indiana Indiana University.
• 30:04
  Speaker 3: Indiana College is.
• 30:05
  Speaker 4: What you called Adana College.
• 30:06
  Speaker 3: You made it like ICC. Wow, what a state now,
• 30:12
  Speaker 3: seriously wow.
• 30:13
  Speaker 4: So actually I'm looking at Simms's rankings. Caleb Williams was
• 30:16
  Speaker 4: not seventh. He was sixth.
• 30:18
  Speaker 3: Oh wow, I hosted the show with him.
• 30:20
  Speaker 4: You would it was seventh. You would have thought Justin
• 30:22
  Speaker 4: Herbert was seventh.
• 30:23
  Speaker 3: Oh that's a terrible thing. Herbert.
• 30:27
  Speaker 4: I wanted, I wanted to crush him, but I can't.
• 30:28
  Speaker 4: I can't defend Justin Herbert.
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: So in Indiana we'll have two football teams, two college
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: football teams, an NBA team. Indiana, Man, they're really growing
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: its stature in terms of sports. They are I mean,
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: they are the They're they're the capitol of football right now.
• 30:45
  Speaker 3: They own football.
• 30:46
  Speaker 4: That's what happens when you get the Pat McAfee show,
• 30:51
  Speaker 4: built a whole infrastructure.
• 30:52
  Speaker 3: Off it is that what happens.
• 30:57
  Speaker 4: Should move the Hall of Fame to Indiana from Canton?
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: From Canton, Taylor put that on the pole. Should the
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: NFL move its Hall of Fame from Canton, Ohio, where
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: it's been forever, to somewhere in Indiana.
• 31:15
  Speaker 3: It's absolutely it's absurd. I don't think.
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: Well, it's going to be interesting to see if this
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: actually happens. I do agree with Taylor. I'm not gonna
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: believe it until it actually happens. I'd like to think
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: the city of Chicago will come to some sort of
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: resolution here and keep the Bears in that city.
• 31:31
  Speaker 3: Because that's an institution. It's an institution.
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: I don't know what I just tried to say. I'm tired, man,
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: it's been a long week. I got to tell you,
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: I cannot imagine that happening because I just can't imagine
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: the people of Chicago, whoever's in charge over there, allowing
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: their football team, the thing that they love most along
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: with the Cubs.
• 31:50
  Speaker 3: To move to Indiana. I just can't see it. I
• 31:52
  Speaker 3: can't see it.
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: So anyway, ad Na Vick is going to join us. Next,

  Speaker 1: All right, thanks to ad Nan urg for joining us.
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: Mikey A has a question for Taylor. I also need
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: to get to a beef with Nick Fans and Elmo,
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: and plus we have the poll questions to wrap up
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: the week. Mikeya, what is your question here for Taylor's
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: We head into a big game too, Nixon spurs NBA Finals.
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: I want the Knicks to put it away tonight, but
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: go ahead, Mikeya.
• 32:47
  Speaker 5: So, Taylor, we were listening to ad Nan and Stu
• 32:49
  Speaker 5: Gott's talk about how they don't like to be on
• 32:52
  Speaker 5: Tech's group checks during games and stuff, and I'm wondering,
• 32:56
  Speaker 5: with you being the way you are during Knicks games,
• 32:59
  Speaker 5: do you want want anybody texting you? Or are you
• 33:01
  Speaker 5: just like leave me alone even not being in the
• 33:05
  Speaker 5: same room.
• 33:06
  Speaker 4: So, if you're just a casual fan, I don't want
• 33:09
  Speaker 4: you texting and popping in and checking in with your
• 33:13
  Speaker 4: ill informed takes. If you're like a diehard Nick fan
• 33:17
  Speaker 4: and one of my close friends, I don't mind texting
• 33:19
  Speaker 4: you during the game.
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: Okay, So no one can really text you unless they're
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: a diehard. Just so we're understanding this quiteickly right, unless
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: you see them at your level of Nick fandom, they're
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: not allowed to text you.
• 33:31
  Speaker 3: Is that the deal?
• 33:33
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Like, I don't need somebody texting me Like, oh no,
• 33:35
  Speaker 4: Jalen Brunson rolled his ankle, Like, yeah, I'm watching the game.
• 33:38
  Speaker 4: I could see that. Jalen Brunston rolled his ankle.
• 33:41
  Speaker 3: Thanks, yeah, I got it.
• 33:42
  Speaker 4: Yeah, give me the Mendoza line.
• 33:44
  Speaker 5: Give me the person that's like this is this is
• 33:46
  Speaker 5: his best a Nick fan that can't text.
• 33:48
  Speaker 3: Me, I think it's me. I do I think it's me.
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: I have a feeling that it's me because he views
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: himself as a bigger nick fan than I am, even
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: though I've been rooting for this team for forty five years.
• 33:57
  Speaker 3: I mean, it's unbelievable.
• 33:59
  Speaker 4: Yeah, you took a convenient, like ten to fifteen years
• 34:03
  Speaker 4: off where you started rooting for Mario Chalmers and those boys.
• 34:07
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah, when Carolina has down years, I mean, are you
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: rooting the same way as you are when they're having
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: great years?
• 34:14
  Speaker 3: Seriously? Who does that? No one does? Well.
• 34:17
  Speaker 4: I haven't had kids yet, so my level of fandom
• 34:19
  Speaker 4: hasn't really slipped off.
• 34:21
  Speaker 3: Sure, are you're blaming it on the kids? Is that
• 34:23
  Speaker 3: what you're doing there? Yeah?
• 34:25
  Speaker 4: It seems like everybody's point of like when their fandom
• 34:27
  Speaker 4: really takes a dip. It's either like your team wins
• 34:30
  Speaker 4: a title and you stop caring less, or that you
• 34:32
  Speaker 4: have kids and you start caring less.
• 34:33
  Speaker 3: For me, it was kids. Priorities change. It's not about
• 34:36
  Speaker 3: not loving sports.
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: As much as I used to, which just my priorities
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: have shifted where sports is no longer the most important
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: thing in my life. They used to be now it's
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: my children. I apologize.
• 34:48
  Speaker 4: I guess.
• 34:49
  Speaker 5: I mean, so is it Nicks or is this like
• 34:52
  Speaker 5: every team? So like Yankees are in the World Series,
• 34:54
  Speaker 5: you want people texting you or it doesn't matter.
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: Uh.
• 34:58
  Speaker 4: For the most part, I I, like I said with
• 35:01
  Speaker 4: add In, I isolate during the game. Ideally, my phone
• 35:05
  Speaker 4: is off to the side and it's like on do
• 35:07
  Speaker 4: not disturb, and I'm not even thinking about my phone,
• 35:11
  Speaker 4: Like during timeouts, I'll go to Twitter and just check
• 35:13
  Speaker 4: to see what people are talking about. But in terms
• 35:15
  Speaker 4: of communicating with people, I already really don't like communicating
• 35:19
  Speaker 4: with people. So we know, during a game that I
• 35:21
  Speaker 4: care about I want to communicate even less.
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: EPJSON is familiar with your work, EPJSON, come to the microphone.
• 35:27
  Speaker 3: Please?
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: Has Taylor been ignoring your text during Knicks games? I mean,
• 35:30
  Speaker 1: what's going on here?
• 35:31
  Speaker 6: You know we have a show group text, right and
• 35:33
  Speaker 6: I sent some A plus material the other night in
• 35:37
  Speaker 6: the middle of the first quarter, and just for the listeners.
• 35:40
  Speaker 6: Because it's A plus material, I feel compelled to read it.
• 35:43
  Speaker 6: This is this is what I wrote to you guys.
• 35:45
  Speaker 3: I wonder what.
• 35:45
  Speaker 6: David Stern would say if he was told that the
• 35:48
  Speaker 6: new York Knicks would be playing in their first NBA
• 35:50
  Speaker 6: Finals in twenty seven years, and they'd be wearing their
• 35:53
  Speaker 6: traditional home whites, and their starting center would be wearing
• 35:56
  Speaker 6: lime green and fluorescent yellow sneakers. I mean, that's hilarious
• 36:01
  Speaker 6: material ignored by the room. I'm wondering for Taylor, is
• 36:05
  Speaker 6: this the problem that I violate the rule of texting
• 36:08
  Speaker 6: you during the game.
• 36:09
  Speaker 4: You sure did listen. I'm going to battle. I'm going
• 36:12
  Speaker 4: to war right now. I can't be thinking about what
• 36:14
  Speaker 4: David Stern would be thinking.
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: And also, Jason, I hate to tell you, you're not
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: at his level. Do you understand what he's saying? He
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: doesn't view you as a Nick fan. He doesn't want
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: to hear from you. I mean, he likes you and
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: he respects you, but he doesn't want to hear from
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: you during a Knicks game.
• 36:28
  Speaker 3: That's all. That's fair. That's fair, okay, okay.
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: And just so you know, same with me, that same
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: with mikey A. And really is he knows the most
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: basketball of all of us, and he doesn't.
• 36:37
  Speaker 3: Want to hear from him. I'm not even certain if
• 36:40
  Speaker 3: Charles Oakley texted him eat respond.
• 36:42
  Speaker 4: I mean, he's not on Taylor's level.
• 36:47
  Speaker 3: What is going on?
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: Nick fans are very sensitive right now, and they'll look
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: for anyone to argue with. By the way, what do
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: you guys make of Colin Cowhort saying you open the
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: show that I saying the Knicks lovable team. Gotta love
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: this team. I don't want to hear from him. I
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: don't want to hear from these people, seriously, who have
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: made fun of the Knicks and their fan base for
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: a couple of decades. Now and now, because we have
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: this lovable team that is somehow scrappy underdogs on the
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: verge of winning an NBA championship.
• 37:15
  Speaker 3: I don't want to hear how lovable they are.
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: You hated them for two decades, You made fun of
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: me and Nick fans for two decades. You cannot jump
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: on the bandwagon.
• 37:24
  Speaker 3: Not now. I am sorry.
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: Now, don't want to hear from Colin, and I certainly
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: don't want to hear from anyone else who wasn't a
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: Nick fan who made fun of Nick Vans for the
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: last two decades.
• 37:34
  Speaker 4: Go ahead, Taylor, Yeah, I have sound clips of Colin
• 37:37
  Speaker 4: Coward that will get for Monday of him at the
• 37:40
  Speaker 4: start of the playoffs, saying that Jalen Brunson isn't a
• 37:43
  Speaker 4: superstar that could take a team to a title, which
• 37:46
  Speaker 4: is kind of weird. We're three games away from said title.
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: Yes, well, in his defense, you closed your eyes once
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: and said you couldn't see Karl Anthony Towns winning a
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: championship with the Knicks to you right, because you're on
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: the level. Yes, you are the level a lot. What
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: has going quickly before the polls? What is going on
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: with Nick fans at Elmo?
• 38:04
  Speaker 3: So?
• 38:05
  Speaker 4: Elmo tweeted out before game one. Elmo hopes both teams
• 38:08
  Speaker 4: have fun and New Yorkers are enraged because Elmo Sesame
• 38:12
  Speaker 4: Street is in New York. Elmo, show some loyalty to
• 38:15
  Speaker 4: your city at one time and just tweet out, let's
• 38:18
  Speaker 4: go Nicks.
• 38:20
  Speaker 3: We're looking for anyone. If it's not Colin, it's Almo.
• 38:26
  Speaker 5: Somebody's gonna throw Oscar that grouch through his front window
• 38:28
  Speaker 5: or something.
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: We are so sensitive, ads to God seven nine the
• 38:33
  Speaker 1: odd Ax. Let's wrap up the week the way we
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: always do with the poll results.
• 38:37
  Speaker 3: Taylor, go ahead, take it away. I'll look at that.
• 38:39
  Speaker 3: I was saying with music Man.
• 38:42
  Speaker 4: Do the Rams lead the league in going all in.
• 38:45
  Speaker 3: Yes, I mean yes, I've got you discute it. They're
• 38:48
  Speaker 3: all in. I mean no, one's more all in every
• 38:50
  Speaker 3: year than the.
• 38:51
  Speaker 4: RAM overwhelming ninety seven percent. What sounds better coach fire
• 38:58
  Speaker 4: or coach sacked?
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: Coach sack, no question about it. Yeah, it's a soccer term,
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: right when they sacked the coach? Yes, I like sack better. Mikey,
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: you like sack better?
• 39:08
  Speaker 4: Yeah? I think it's an English term, not a.
• 39:10
  Speaker 3: Soccer Termah okay, sorry, same thing.
• 39:14
  Speaker 4: Seventy two percent of the audience said sacked sounds better?
• 39:17
  Speaker 3: All right?
• 39:19
  Speaker 4: Should the World Cup have to wait to start until
• 39:21
  Speaker 4: the next season is over?
• 39:22
  Speaker 3: Yep? It should. We've been waiting for this for a
• 39:25
  Speaker 3: long time.
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: I don't like this no rest between games, shortened scheduled. Nope,
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: let's take our time and enjoy this. What are we
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: going to rush for to see no goals go ahead?
• 39:34
  Speaker 4: Sixty four percent of the audience said yes, it should wait.
• 39:38
