- 0:08Speaker 1: Radio ninety two five and on the Altitude Sports Radio app.
- 0:18Speaker 2: All right, get back to the Nuggets in a second.
- 0:20Speaker 3: I do want to show because Mose was gone during
- 0:22Speaker 3: this trying to fix his setup, and his set up
- 0:24Speaker 3: is fixed now.
- 0:25Speaker 2: So I want to reiterate something the Rockies.
- 0:30Speaker 3: If you ignore the first series of the year where
- 0:32Speaker 3: they won or they lost all three games by one run,
- 0:36Speaker 3: are four and two.
- 0:38Speaker 4: Since then, you'd like that, wouldn't you.
- 0:42Speaker 3: They're not that bad. They're not that Yeah, whatever, But Mose,
- 0:47Speaker 3: they did something yesterday. Troy Johnston, who's played pretty well
- 0:50Speaker 3: to start this year, had a dinger yesterday and the
- 0:52Speaker 3: second inning.
- 0:54Speaker 5: It went three for five. Yesterday, he did all over it.
- 0:57Speaker 4: Did you see his first time?
- 0:58Speaker 5: What he said? Huh?
- 1:00Speaker 2: Well, go ahead, you tell me what he said first.
- 1:03Speaker 5: Well he said, which I think is indicative of why
- 1:09Speaker 5: the Rockies need to put out a winning product. He said, Look,
- 1:12Speaker 5: when I was playing in Miami, he goes, Man, I'd
- 1:14Speaker 5: go around town, he goes, I never saw one Marlin's
- 1:16Speaker 5: jersey or one one Marlin's nothing, he said, Man, around town,
- 1:22Speaker 5: I just see rocky stuff all over the place, and
- 1:24Speaker 5: it feels great.
- 1:25Speaker 4: And he stopped right there real quick, he stopped. Sure,
- 1:28Speaker 4: Miami's such a crappy sports town. It is Miami, folks,
- 1:33Speaker 4: who I get all proud of. Miami's a terrible sports town.
- 1:36Speaker 5: You know it. In ninetels.
- 1:38Speaker 4: Occasionally you'll have a team that wins. Remember that team
- 1:40Speaker 4: that they had that year they had the heat and
- 1:43Speaker 4: the Panthers rocking. You don't support your teams, You're a
- 1:47Speaker 4: terrible sports town. I just wanted to say that. Sorry,
- 1:50Speaker 4: go on.
- 1:50Speaker 3: So it's a two to nothing game here in the
- 1:53Speaker 3: bottom of the second. Troy Johnson has had a good
- 1:55Speaker 3: start to this year again, hit his second home round
- 1:58Speaker 3: the night last night.
- 1:59Speaker 2: This is first hit the most. What do you think
- 2:02Speaker 2: here comes the pitch?
- 2:03Speaker 3: Oh yeah, he drops a lot. I know it's gonna
- 2:06Speaker 3: go foul right there on the foul line. How about
- 2:11Speaker 3: that most.
- 2:12Speaker 2: That makes you happen?
- 2:13Speaker 5: My boy? Okay, now I got a new guy. I
- 2:16Speaker 5: told you I can get any guy I want. You
- 2:18Speaker 5: got any guy you want I get. I can get
- 2:21Speaker 5: any guy I want. That's my guy. I like that.
- 2:24Speaker 2: How's that for a butt? You lay it right there,
- 2:26Speaker 2: right in the middle of that foul line. Huh right.
- 2:30Speaker 5: And for those of you who would say, well, most
- 2:32Speaker 5: is being hypocritical, No, man, Nolan got all the love
- 2:36Speaker 5: here in Denver, and so when he goes to Saint Louis,
- 2:39Speaker 5: which he's now gone from, it says, I never never
- 2:41Speaker 5: had fans love me like that, my butt. What Troy
- 2:45Speaker 5: is saying about Miami is true. I mean, they they
- 2:47Speaker 5: they're just such fair whether people. They don't go to
- 2:49Speaker 5: the ballpark, they don't do anything. And Rockies fans, man,
- 2:53Speaker 5: they show up and they show out all the time.
- 2:56Speaker 5: And so I I I'm glad this guy is here.
- 3:00Speaker 5: I love the fact that he laid down to bunt.
- 3:01Speaker 5: I told you Brett that they continue to do this. Man,
- 3:03Speaker 5: they're going to steal my hearts. They really are.
- 3:06Speaker 3: Well playing pretty well as of late. So we'll see
- 3:09Speaker 3: what happens for the rest of this Astro series. But
- 3:11Speaker 3: it wasn't whin yesterday. How about this. You always want
- 3:14Speaker 3: your team's healthy heading into the postseason.
- 3:16Speaker 2: I mean, that's a key.
- 3:18Speaker 3: It's one of the things that I'm sure the Avs
- 3:20Speaker 3: will be thinking about some one of the things the
- 3:22Speaker 3: Nuggets will be thinking about.
- 3:25Speaker 5: Now.
- 3:27Speaker 2: There is a certain player in this league, in the
- 3:29Speaker 2: NHL that for where they're at.
- 3:34Speaker 3: And I understand the Pittsburgh Penguins, mos, they're a playoff team.
- 3:38Speaker 2: They're a prettydamn good one too. Ninety six points this year.
- 3:42Speaker 5: They're I mean, surprisingly, dude, they're number two in the metro.
- 3:45Speaker 5: I did not I had them barely even battling for
- 3:49Speaker 5: a playoff spot.
- 3:50Speaker 3: Well, they're gonna be without a goalie for a minute.
- 3:52Speaker 3: See what happened. Stuart Skinner was sitting on the bench
- 3:56Speaker 3: last night. Now he pull up this photo and he
- 3:59Speaker 3: kind of, oh my god, he caught a puck to
- 4:01Speaker 3: the eyeball.
- 4:02Speaker 5: Oh my god.
- 4:03Speaker 2: Yeah, he said, I'm not.
- 4:06Speaker 3: Gonna be able to go next game, hopefully sometime soon.
- 4:11Speaker 3: But that eye has a giant It's entirely purple all
- 4:16Speaker 3: the way around his eye.
- 4:17Speaker 4: I've seen shiners that that is like a fake shiner.
- 4:20Speaker 4: That's like a makeup artist.
- 4:21Speaker 3: It looks like he's got a golf ball that is
- 4:23Speaker 3: totally black underneath his eye.
- 4:25Speaker 2: Can't open it. Yikes, have you ever.
- 4:28Speaker 4: Had a shine?
- 4:28Speaker 5: It's gonna be, It's gonna be. She loves it's gonna be.
- 4:31Speaker 5: That's what's gonna be. Would you what did you say, Mosh,
- 4:34Speaker 5: it's gonna be. She loves now to to take the net. Yeah, yeah,
- 4:38Speaker 5: you know till this guy's back.
- 4:40Speaker 4: That's why I always am worried about Riker when he
- 4:42Speaker 4: calls the game at home and he's in between the benches.
- 4:47Speaker 4: That is a ripe area to get hit by a puck.
- 4:50Speaker 5: I I'm actually surprised that more guys aren't pegged on
- 4:54Speaker 5: the bench. Equipment, guys, trainer, guys, coaches, your call. Former uh,
- 5:01Speaker 5: former Nashville Predators gim David Poyle. One time at practice,
- 5:07Speaker 5: he's standing down kind of the hallway, you know, to
- 5:10Speaker 5: lead to the bench, and a puck came across and
- 5:12Speaker 5: it went off a stick and deflected over the boards
- 5:14Speaker 5: and hit him and the e I lost his eye.
- 5:16Speaker 5: He got I removed. You've got no, he's in the hall.
- 5:18Speaker 5: I mean, he's a Hall of Famer. This is all well.
- 5:22Speaker 5: I mean, just standing down the tunnel a little bit
- 5:24Speaker 5: from practice and he got it in the eye and
- 5:26Speaker 5: he lost his eye.
- 5:27Speaker 3: Kerry Puckett the same thing happened to him, and.
- 5:30Speaker 5: Oh my god, that's I mean, so I'm surprised. I'm
- 5:35Speaker 5: surprised the more guys aren't nailed. In fact, we were
- 5:37Speaker 5: in Pittsburgh a couple of years ago. They had a
- 5:38Speaker 5: goalie name Alex Nadelkovich. He now plays for San Jose,
- 5:43Speaker 5: and he took a slap right in the head, knocked
- 5:45Speaker 5: him off his stool and he was out and and uh,
- 5:49Speaker 5: he got nailed really hard by a puck. I'm just
- 5:52Speaker 5: surprised it doesn't happen more because those cross ice passes. Man,
- 5:57Speaker 5: all it takes is like, you know, a defender trying
- 5:59Speaker 5: to knock it down or whatever, and it ramps up
- 6:02Speaker 5: off that blade and goes right. And you've seen me
- 6:03Speaker 5: go out to the bench a million times. Guys are
- 6:05Speaker 5: dug fucking for cover.
- 6:06Speaker 4: I'd be more concerned when guys try to wrap it
- 6:08Speaker 4: around the boards to get it out of the zone
- 6:10Speaker 4: and then it defects because that thing's coming in.
- 6:12Speaker 5: Hard and hot. Yeah, yeah, it really is. Well. A
- 6:16Speaker 5: guy the other night, Kulak was coming up and the
- 6:19Speaker 5: puck rolled on him a little bit and he fired
- 6:20Speaker 5: over the glass and the guy got it way far away.
- 6:24Speaker 5: Who should I mean, it happens, it's dangerous.
- 6:27Speaker 4: Who should we not expect to see on the ice
- 6:29Speaker 4: tonight for the avalanche.
- 6:31Speaker 5: I'm not sure anybody vic, to be honest with you,
- 6:34Speaker 5: I'm not sure anybody. I think even Valdachuskin has a
- 6:36Speaker 5: chance to go tonight to get back into lineup. I
- 6:39Speaker 5: think it was just a minor little thing. So I
- 6:42Speaker 5: don't I don't think they're gonna sit anybody except for
- 6:44Speaker 5: Cale mccarr who's out with injury right now, So I don't.
- 6:48Speaker 5: I don't know that anybody's gonna be out. I think
- 6:50Speaker 5: the Avs tonight, I think they're gonna come on out
- 6:53Speaker 5: and they're gonna they're gonna play with a purpose this evening.
- 6:56Speaker 5: I'm not at skate Rikers. Riker's over there, but I'll
- 6:59Speaker 5: I'll give you a full repat Well this is.
- 7:01Speaker 3: I think you were off when we were talking about
- 7:03Speaker 3: this motion. But the idea I have is I think
- 7:07Speaker 3: there is there should be a lot of motivation to
- 7:10Speaker 3: win tonight, because obviously, if you do that, then you
- 7:11Speaker 3: wrap up the one seed and it's done right. But
- 7:14Speaker 3: it's also I said, if I was bed and ar
- 7:16Speaker 3: I'm walking up to McKinnon and I'm walking up to
- 7:18Speaker 3: Nachius and I'm walking up to all these guys saying, guys,
- 7:20Speaker 3: guess what win the game tonight? You don't have to
- 7:24Speaker 3: leave Denver again until our first road playoff game because
- 7:27Speaker 3: I won't take it on the back to back to Canada. Okay,
- 7:29Speaker 3: how's that from motivation? You get to stay in your
- 7:31Speaker 3: own bed for like two straight weeks.
- 7:33Speaker 4: How's that?
- 7:35Speaker 5: Well? They probably probably, I mean, they'll do what the
- 7:39Speaker 5: coach says. I don't think these guys want to not play.
- 7:42Speaker 5: I mean, you try to tell Nathan McKinnon, hey, you're
- 7:44Speaker 5: not gonna be able to play hockey, He's gonna be pissed. Yeah,
- 7:47Speaker 5: you know, Look he's he's in a race right now.
- 7:49Speaker 5: Let me see where God I go. I should probably
- 7:51Speaker 5: keep an eye on Cole Cawfield every day because he's
- 7:55Speaker 5: having a phenomenal season. But uh, Cawfield still two behind
- 8:00Speaker 5: McKinnon for the rocket race. So Nate has fifty one,
- 8:03Speaker 5: Coffee Loves forty nine, and then Cooch and mcpickles have
- 8:06Speaker 5: forty three. With Capriza, they're not they're not gonna catch him,
- 8:10Speaker 5: but Cole Coffield could I the only guy to win
- 8:13Speaker 5: the Rocket with shard In and f Sweater is Milan
- 8:14Speaker 5: Heyduke who had fifty goals exactly. I want McKinnon to
- 8:19Speaker 5: win the rocket. I think it's important. And if you
- 8:21Speaker 5: start sitting him, I don't think he's gonna want to sit.
- 8:25Speaker 5: I mean, we'll see. I mean, you can be prudent
- 8:27Speaker 5: about it, and you can rest vowels, and you can
- 8:29Speaker 5: rest you know, nases and and Manson's and all this
- 8:32Speaker 5: kind of thing. You want rest of burns because he's
- 8:34Speaker 5: got a street going. But you can do that, rest
- 8:37Speaker 5: of taves, you know, take guys in and out. But
- 8:41Speaker 5: you also have to worry about the cap too. You
- 8:42Speaker 5: really don't have any have any bread to kind of
- 8:45Speaker 5: move guys around like that. You know you're right up
- 8:46Speaker 5: against it on any given day.
- 8:48Speaker 4: Do you guys watch any of the n CITBA tournament
- 8:49Speaker 4: Last night I did, Yep, I want the whole thing.
- 8:52Speaker 4: I watched a little bit of it because you know,
- 8:53Speaker 4: the game is going on and I'm watching Michigan Clank three.
- 8:56Speaker 5: I had both games going on, yep.
- 8:58Speaker 4: And Michigan wins. Yeah, wasn't easy because Yukon always hangs around,
- 9:02Speaker 4: but Michigan ends up winning it. How about the how
- 9:06Speaker 4: about the glory of the big ten right now, and
- 9:08Speaker 4: what they've done in this year national champs in football,
- 9:12Speaker 4: national champs in women's hoops, national champs in men's hoops.
- 9:17Speaker 4: Have they overtaken the SEC?
- 9:19Speaker 2: Well, whatever do you want to say, but hang on motion.
- 9:24Speaker 2: They didn't just win in football this.
- 9:25Speaker 4: Year, they dominate.
- 9:26Speaker 2: They've won three straight in football, three different teams.
- 9:31Speaker 4: All right, well, let me say it into this open microphone.
- 9:33Speaker 4: They have overtaken it.
- 9:34Speaker 5: But Ucla, Ucla being a big.
- 9:36Speaker 4: It doesn't matter, Texas an SEC team, Missouri being an
- 9:40Speaker 4: SEC team. I mean, come on, and more. You could
- 9:43Speaker 4: just attract it. I get it. It doesn't work. But
- 9:46Speaker 4: the the Big Ten is better than the SEC all
- 9:49Speaker 4: around as a sports conference. It is.
- 9:54Speaker 5: Right now. It is.
- 9:55Speaker 2: Look, those two they're in a league of their own,
- 9:58Speaker 2: both of them. And it it's like the Big Ten
- 10:03Speaker 2: spends an obscene amount of money to be good at
- 10:05Speaker 2: things they do. I mean, it's just check after check
- 10:10Speaker 2: after check that they're riding all day.
- 10:13Speaker 5: It's check check check chick. He just chick.
- 10:18Speaker 2: I heard you try to do it earlier.
- 10:20Speaker 3: I was trying to back you up all day.
- 10:24Speaker 2: You're right, check chicky.
- 10:28Speaker 5: That's me and his money.
- 10:30Speaker 3: But it's true, Like they just keep spitting them out
- 10:33Speaker 3: and it's like, yeah, you spend enough money, you win.
- 10:36Speaker 2: That's what you wouldn't see is trying to do.
- 10:38Speaker 3: North Carolina was trying to be like Belichick, Michael Malone,
- 10:42Speaker 3: championship coaches here, take money, fix us Brett.
- 10:45Speaker 5: What else are they getting though? When they do win,
- 10:48Speaker 5: more money? They're getting money money, chick. They're just doing
- 10:52Speaker 5: the Brinks truck is backing up to the Big ten,
- 10:55Speaker 5: and so they take that money and they reinvest it.
- 10:58Speaker 5: I mean they're they're admitted man that not only do
- 11:02Speaker 5: they have the money to begin with, but then their
- 11:04Speaker 5: money makes money, and then it makes money for the
- 11:07Speaker 5: entire conference, and then you get more money and more
- 11:10Speaker 5: money and more money. Yeah.
- 11:14Speaker 4: You know what I want? I want the Nuggets to
- 11:15Speaker 4: draft that big center for Michigan that's seven footer. I
- 11:20Speaker 4: want him.
- 11:21Speaker 5: He's seven to three, bro, I want him.
- 11:23Speaker 4: I want him on this team.
- 11:25Speaker 5: Me need that.
- 11:26Speaker 4: I would love that coming off the bench. Why, I
- 11:28Speaker 4: just want it? You know what's funny something I want? Hey, listen,
- 11:32Speaker 4: there's things I have needs and wants and desires. Huh
- 11:35Speaker 4: I want that?
- 11:36Speaker 5: Yeah?
- 11:36Speaker 4: Well okay, all right, I have their number one pick
- 11:39Speaker 4: this year.
- 11:40Speaker 3: I don't know if you've been keeping up on this.
- 11:43Speaker 3: They have a backup center who's actually pretty good.
- 11:46Speaker 4: I know he played great lesson i Valance Schouness. I
- 11:48Speaker 4: thought saved the Nuggets Bacon at times. Yeah, because this
- 11:53Speaker 4: game was slipping away. He comes in hits that three,
- 11:56Speaker 4: He only played ten minutes, had fourteen points. Is that efficient?
- 12:00Speaker 5: Bro? Sam Good?
- 12:01Speaker 3: Let me tell you something about Jonnis Valoncinis. He's played
- 12:04Speaker 3: three games this month Portland, San Antonio, Utah. He is
- 12:08Speaker 3: averaging nine points seven minutes per game in those you
- 12:11Speaker 3: know what he's averaging scoring wise, eleven point three. He's
- 12:16Speaker 3: averaging eleven points in about ten minutes off the bench.
- 12:19Speaker 5: He know.
- 12:21Speaker 2: The guy can play. I don't know why he doesn't.
- 12:25Speaker 4: Well, I'm just telling you I don't. I don't know
- 12:28Speaker 4: if he's going to come back next year because the
- 12:30Speaker 4: Nuggets are gonna have a bunch of different financial ramifications
- 12:33Speaker 4: who they bring back, who they don't, and if he
- 12:36Speaker 4: does not return with an option year. I know who
- 12:39Speaker 4: I want. I've seen it. I want that Mara kid
- 12:42Speaker 4: from Michigan. That's who I want.
- 12:44Speaker 5: Okay, he what's the skinny, what's the skinny spaniard okay
- 12:48Speaker 5: seven three? Who was it yesterday that brought up the
- 12:52Speaker 5: stammarda of Nikola Jokich? Who brought that up? One of you?
- 12:55Speaker 5: Two clowns me? Okay, clown one. I'm watching I'm watching
- 13:01Speaker 5: that game last night, and I'm watching him catch the
- 13:04Speaker 5: ball on the perimeter right and he fakes like he's
- 13:08Speaker 5: gonna shoot a three and he draws, dude right and
- 13:10Speaker 5: then he ducks to his left and he drives the
- 13:13Speaker 5: lane and those guys are going but he's dude his
- 13:17Speaker 5: womb but bomb. But he's gloping down the lane and
- 13:20Speaker 5: putting it in and I'm like, man, he still has
- 13:23Speaker 5: that big guy explosion late in a fourth court?
- 13:27Speaker 2: Does he get tired where he.
- 13:29Speaker 5: Just he goes down the lane and these guys are like, eh, surrender, surrender.
- 13:34Speaker 5: I mean, I'm like, he's not. They can't get to
- 13:38Speaker 5: him because he's still got that that berth vic. It's impressive.
- 13:41Speaker 5: It's impressive.
- 13:42Speaker 4: Well, the Nuggets have mastered one thing. Remember a couple
- 13:45Speaker 4: months ago we wondered, why can't the Nuggets win clutch
- 13:48Speaker 4: games anymore?
- 13:49Speaker 5: Why what have.
- 13:50Speaker 4: They done over the last month, over the last nine games,

- 16:11Speaker 3: my research and some little known presidents. That's what the
- 16:13Speaker 3: YouTube series I was watching was.
- 16:16Speaker 5: Okay, hey real quick, my friend.
- 16:18Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, he was Chester Arthur's vice president. I'm sorry,
- 16:21Speaker 3: James Garfield. Chester Arthur was his vice president and James
- 16:26Speaker 3: Garfield got shot like three months into his president.
- 16:28Speaker 4: Do you remember the guy who played the role of
- 16:30Speaker 4: Chester Arthur. Yeah, it was the guy who played from
- 16:34Speaker 4: the guy who played in We Are the Millers Too.
- 16:38Speaker 5: All right, good talk, Hey, listen real quick.
- 16:39Speaker 3: Michael Shannon just a fantastic at awesome whatever show is awesome,
- 16:44Speaker 3: Ordwalk Empire.
- 16:45Speaker 2: You should see him in Nurember. He's great and yeah, awesome.
- 16:49Speaker 5: That much good talk. My friend Blosh texted me he's
- 16:53Speaker 5: a big Michigan guy, Sorry, Vick, and he says, oh,
- 16:55Speaker 5: by the way, we're going for it in the Frozen
- 16:57Speaker 5: four as well. I'm like, yeah, what if? What if?
- 17:00Speaker 5: One college? What a big ten one college hockey's national title?
- 17:03Speaker 5: Go Pios.
- 17:03Speaker 2: By the way, it's one problem with Michigan, one big problem.
- 17:07Speaker 5: What what's that I ain't.
- 17:09Speaker 3: Calling their coach Dusty dust team may I'm not I'm
- 17:12Speaker 3: not doing Dusty.
- 17:13Speaker 2: Okay, here's the issue, be Dustin. You weren't Dusty.
- 17:16Speaker 4: Here's the mystery with college sports. I was just reading
- 17:19Speaker 4: this article during the timeout and it was talking about
- 17:22Speaker 4: the money that Michigan spent on this roster. They spent
- 17:26Speaker 4: ten million dollars on this roster, and a lot of
- 17:28Speaker 4: the guys came from other teams, guys Illinois, North Carolina, UAB, UCLA,
- 17:36Speaker 4: A lot of their team are dudes from those teams.
- 17:39Speaker 4: Ten million dollars was spent Later.
- 17:42Speaker 5: Not recruiting, You're you're not. But what you're saying is
- 17:45Speaker 5: they're not recruiting, they're just poaching.
- 17:47Speaker 4: Well, that's all college sports right now. They're just poaching
- 17:50Speaker 4: from the transfer portal. You're spending money. Ten million dollars
- 17:53Speaker 4: And I thought to myself, God, man, that's a lot
- 17:55Speaker 4: of money until I read Kentucky reportedly spent twenty million
- 18:00Speaker 4: dollars on its roster. Twenty million on its roster, And
- 18:04Speaker 4: therein lies the problem I have with college sports is
- 18:07Speaker 4: that no one is really sure how much money these
- 18:10Speaker 4: teams are spending. It's all sort of nebulous activity. No
- 18:15Speaker 4: one has like, show me your receipts. They don't have
- 18:18Speaker 4: to show you anything. It's just reportedly they've spent this
- 18:21Speaker 4: much money, Like, who's spending how much what? In pro sports,
- 18:26Speaker 4: we know exactly how much is spent right to construct
- 18:28Speaker 4: a roster. In college sports where supposedly professional, now these
- 18:32Speaker 4: guys are paid we have on this day. Tell me
- 18:35Speaker 4: if I'm wrong. We have no idea exactly how much
- 18:39Speaker 4: money is being spent on athletes. We have no idea
- 18:42Speaker 4: because there's the requirement that each team needs to spend
- 18:45Speaker 4: for their whatever the hell that's called that? What's that?
- 18:48Speaker 4: What's that minimum that each team has to spend. That's
- 18:52Speaker 4: a requirement by the NCAA. But on top of that
- 18:56Speaker 4: is the money, the real money that forms these teams.
- 19:00Speaker 4: And that's what we have no idea how much is
- 19:02Speaker 4: spent none, what's.
- 19:05Speaker 2: Like unless you win, what's your return on the investment there?
- 19:11Speaker 2: What is it?
- 19:11Speaker 5: I don't know.
- 19:12Speaker 4: That's why I always go back and say, who is
- 19:14Speaker 4: who's providing these funds? Like Indiana, Mark Cuban is a
- 19:18Speaker 4: big reason why they got this big influx of money, right, yeah, Indiana,
- 19:24Speaker 4: But who else is providing these funds? And at the
- 19:27Speaker 4: end of the day, why, I don't know?
- 19:32Speaker 3: Like it's one of those if if my look, my
- 19:35Speaker 3: college isn't like a big time player in the NCAA.
- 19:38Speaker 3: Let's say they just became that somehow, like they became
- 19:41Speaker 3: a team that's gonna spend they have some sort of
- 19:44Speaker 3: warn Buffett type that comes through is like, you know what,
- 19:46Speaker 3: I love Nebraska, Omaha, here's one hundred and fifty million
- 19:50Speaker 3: dollars make our teams good. And then they come to
- 19:53Speaker 3: me to ask for money. I'm like, nope, I'm not
- 19:55Speaker 3: giving you a single set. I don't think So why
- 19:58Speaker 3: where where's this money coming from?
- 19:59Speaker 4: Then?
- 19:59Speaker 5: Why? Why?
- 20:00Speaker 4: How did Kentucky get twenty million dollars to spend on
- 20:04Speaker 4: its roster? How I LSU's got enough money down on
- 20:10Speaker 4: its football coffers. They had to pay off the previous
- 20:13Speaker 4: coach a ton. Oh and by the way, when you
- 20:15Speaker 4: asked why is North Carolina going with Michael Malone, I
- 20:18Speaker 4: think a big reason is they didn't have to buy
- 20:19Speaker 4: out anybody, and that money that they save from a
- 20:22Speaker 4: buyout they spend immediately on the roster. He comes free
- 20:25Speaker 4: of charge.
- 20:26Speaker 3: I don't have to buy out all your buy I
- 20:29Speaker 3: was gonna say they they had to buy out their
- 20:31Speaker 3: former stuff.
- 20:32Speaker 4: But to go get Tommy Lloyd, for example, from Arizona,
- 20:35Speaker 4: they would have to buy out that contract.
- 20:36Speaker 3: Well, the other thing is Malone wasn't their first choice.
- 20:40Speaker 3: They got turned out a lot, reportedly by a bunch
- 20:42Speaker 3: of college coaches. Before they get to Malone, which whatever.
- 20:46Speaker 3: I mean, good for Malone to get the job, but
- 20:48Speaker 3: I don't know if that was the sole sort of
- 20:50Speaker 3: priority to it. I'm sure it's a bonus now, but.
- 20:53Speaker 4: Where is this money? And somebody said, well, it's television money.
- 20:56Speaker 5: No it's not.
- 20:57Speaker 4: It's not television money. It's not tell because every team
- 21:00Speaker 4: gets its fair share of television money. Every Big ten team,
- 21:04Speaker 4: every Big twelve team, everyone has access to that money.
- 21:08Speaker 4: This money, which is a mystery to me, and to
- 21:11Speaker 4: this day, I don't know. How does Kentucky have twenty million?
- 21:14Speaker 4: How does Texas Tech Football have the riches it? Who
- 21:19Speaker 4: is who is providing these funds?
- 21:21Speaker 5: People? People with bread, fishy people with money?
- 21:25Speaker 4: Why?
- 21:26Speaker 5: Why? Why? Because they want to win. They love their school.
- 21:29Speaker 5: I don't know.
- 21:30Speaker 3: I love my teams, bro, But if the Lions came
- 21:33Speaker 3: up to me and they said, give me a million
- 21:35Speaker 3: dollars or a team's not gonna win, I was like, well,
- 21:36Speaker 3: then I guess we lose.
- 21:37Speaker 4: Does anybody love Notre Dame like I love Notre Dame.
- 21:41Speaker 2: No, you're a freak.
- 21:42Speaker 4: I'm gonna spend my money on my kids. I'm not
- 21:46Speaker 4: giving it to the football team, right.
- 21:47Speaker 5: Sorry, But what you have these tech bros. Dude who
- 21:51Speaker 5: get together and they're all worth a hundred million, and
- 21:53Speaker 5: they all pull some bread together and give ten million
- 21:56Speaker 5: Why are you? Or you get port and he's got
- 22:00Speaker 5: all kinds of money and he gives Michigan ten million
- 22:03Speaker 5: bucks to get a quarterback.
- 22:04Speaker 4: So Portnoy can go on social media and brag that, Yeah, what.
- 22:08Speaker 5: Do you get when I don't know when I guess when, I.
- 22:13Speaker 2: Mean, think about a lifetime of sweets or something like that.
- 22:16Speaker 5: The games maybe, like.
- 22:17Speaker 4: It's a personal brag is what it turns into.
- 22:21Speaker 2: That's all it is, all right, That's all it is.
- 22:23Speaker 3: Yeah, I want to get back the nugget stuffrom last
- 22:26Speaker 3: night is the nuggets, the the.
- 22:29Speaker 4: Let me let me get one more thing. Rich people
- 22:30Speaker 4: get to ride off, but you, hey, don't don't be naive.
- 22:35Speaker 4: If you're that wealthy. There are other means you can
- 22:38Speaker 4: ride off your wealth. It doesn't have to be a
- 22:40Speaker 4: credit to your school. There are other places you can
- 22:44Speaker 4: ride off that wealth. Trust me.
- 22:45Speaker 3: I have to get this yacht because it's a business
- 22:48Speaker 3: transportation to meetings, you know what I mean?
- 22:50Speaker 5: Like, yeah, at the end of the day, what is
- 22:53Speaker 5: the reason, man, I'm trying to figure out how to
- 22:57Speaker 5: ride off a fishing skiff. If I ever wanted to
- 23:00Speaker 5: get a boat, I can't. You know me, I want
- 23:03Speaker 5: a boat, so all right, I want a boat with
- 23:05Speaker 5: a boat, but I want to boat. How do you
- 23:07Speaker 5: ride off? How do you ride off a thirty year
- 23:09Speaker 5: old broken down ski boat?
- 23:12Speaker 3: You mentioned this earlier, Vic, and it's true. I have
- 23:16Speaker 3: had a major concern with the Nuggets late game situations.
- 23:22Speaker 3: Can you find ways to close well? During this nine
- 23:24Speaker 3: game win streak, they won a close game against Toronto.
- 23:28Speaker 3: They want a close game against Phoenix by two. They
- 23:31Speaker 3: want a close game against Dallas by seven. They want
- 23:33Speaker 3: a close game against Utah by six. They want a
- 23:35Speaker 3: close game against Utah again, this by thirteen, but the
- 23:39Speaker 3: game was closer than that. And now back to back
- 23:41Speaker 3: overtime wins against San Antonio and Portland. They are closing
- 23:45Speaker 3: games out.
- 23:46Speaker 4: They are And what's every playoff game? What is every
- 23:49Speaker 4: playoff game? Every playoff game is just hang on?
- 23:53Speaker 3: Do you remember? It's still like it still sticks my brains.
- 23:57Speaker 3: It was so opposite of what the playoffs are. Do
- 23:59Speaker 3: you remember when they played Minnesota a couple of years
- 24:01Speaker 3: ago in that brutal series.
- 24:02Speaker 4: I know and then one game's a blowout, the other
- 24:04Speaker 4: games a blowout.
- 24:05Speaker 3: One team won by thirty the next night, the other
- 24:07Speaker 3: team won by forty the next You know, none of
- 24:10Speaker 3: them were close. But yes, you need to be able
- 24:15Speaker 3: to win close games to win the playoffs. The Nuggets
- 24:18Speaker 3: have been very good at that, probably the best in
- 24:20Speaker 3: the league over the last five years up until this year.
- 24:24Speaker 2: But at least that's changing a bit.
- 24:26Speaker 5: Yeah, but Brad, yep, you're not gonna win postseason games
- 24:31Speaker 5: one thirty seven to one thirty two. The defense is
- 24:34Speaker 5: also going to have to be The Nuggets have proven
- 24:37Speaker 5: they can outscore their problems on any given night. We
- 24:40Speaker 5: know that they can do that, one of the highest
- 24:42Speaker 5: scoring teams in the league, if not the It's a
- 24:44Speaker 5: matter of locking things down when it matters the most,
- 24:47Speaker 5: and that's where the linglong is gonna be tested. That's
- 24:49Speaker 5: where we're gonna say, Okay, are they for real, you know,
- 24:53Speaker 5: going to play hard? Are they for real going to
- 24:55Speaker 5: play defense what it truly matters. Are they going to
- 24:58Speaker 5: ratchet up that aspect of their game because the other side,
- 25:01Speaker 5: we know they can score, and the other teams are
- 25:03Speaker 5: gonna ratchet up theirs.
- 25:05Speaker 2: Yeah, here's the other thing. By the way, Vick.
- 25:08Speaker 3: On March eleventh, the Denver Nuggets were seventeen and thirteen
- 25:12Speaker 3: at home. They're now twenty six and thirteen. They've won
- 25:16Speaker 3: nine straight home games. The two things that we said
- 25:19Speaker 3: all year need to change. They need to win close
- 25:21Speaker 3: games late. They need to be better at home. Well,
- 25:23Speaker 3: guess what the schedule both have changed to.
- 25:26Speaker 4: Two numbers that astonished me. I had no idea until
- 25:29Speaker 4: I read this yesterday that Tomorrow night, the Nuggets have
- 25:32Speaker 4: a chance to win ten in a row, a ten
- 25:35Speaker 4: game win streak for the first time in the Joker era.
- 25:37Speaker 4: It's never happened, the longest win streak of the Joker era.
- 25:41Speaker 4: Twice said they've run nine in a row, but never
- 25:43Speaker 4: ten in a row. All you have to do is
- 25:44Speaker 4: beat Memphis, same Memphis team that was the last team
- 25:48Speaker 4: to beat Denver. Yeah, how did Memphis beat Denver? Do
- 25:51Speaker 4: you remember that game?
- 25:52Speaker 5: So?
- 25:53Speaker 4: And this is why I need to remind you, and
- 25:54Speaker 4: I know we have all day tomorrow to preview that game.
- 25:56Speaker 4: How did Memphis win that game? It was the second
- 25:58Speaker 4: game of a back to back. Remember they got in
- 26:00Speaker 4: really late. Yep, they made threes early. I Remember ty
- 26:04Speaker 4: Jerome was making logo threes and that was the makeup, remember, right,
- 26:07Speaker 4: So I'm gonna give you my keys a day early
- 26:10Speaker 4: for crying out loud. Oh, for God's sake, cut off
- 26:13Speaker 4: that three point line early. If you want to avoid
- 26:16Speaker 4: that mess early, make it a point in the first quarter. No,
- 26:20Speaker 4: we're not gonna let you get confident from the line.
- 26:22Speaker 2: Yeah, don't let young teams get confident.
- 26:26Speaker 4: Not from the line, not from that the three point line.
- 26:28Speaker 4: That's the only chance they have. Last night, the Memphis
- 26:32Speaker 4: Grizzlies tied in the NBA record twenty nine three pointers
- 26:36Speaker 4: made and they lost. Yeah. You know what, there's something
- 26:39Speaker 4: I will tell you about that. Think about that. So
- 26:41Speaker 4: it with two games, Portland at twenty five threes, Memphis
- 26:43Speaker 4: had twenty nine. In what world do you live where
- 26:47Speaker 4: those guys make that many threes and lose?
- 26:49Speaker 5: I love it.
- 26:50Speaker 4: I love it. Don't reward the damn teams for these
- 26:53Speaker 4: shot puts?
- 26:57Speaker 2: What motions?
- 26:58Speaker 4: You're about to say something, then you stop talking.
- 27:01Speaker 5: I apologize. So what you're saying then is don't let
- 27:05Speaker 5: them draw first blood with a three pointer. And by
- 27:11Speaker 5: the way, if you want your blood drawn, contact by

- 28:12Speaker 4: Your blood is good here, mojes if you want to
- 28:14Speaker 4: use it. But let me show you how that bit
- 28:15Speaker 4: went for a month straight because Nelly put together a
- 28:18Speaker 4: little composite by telling blood segues.
- 28:24Speaker 2: And I am not alone out here. I'm not on
- 28:26Speaker 2: a mos island.
- 28:27Speaker 5: I there's a lot of people living on this island

- 28:48Speaker 4: every day. Yep, speaking of the Mississippi School for Women.
- 28:53Speaker 4: Blood donations are needed every day to help patience. Either way,
- 28:58Speaker 4: if the Nuggets lose, your blood will be boiled in
- 29:00Speaker 4: one way or another, which brings me to this. Blood
- 29:02Speaker 4: donations are needed every day help patients in Colorado. It
- 29:06Speaker 4: looked like Dan Hurley was out for blood. Speaking up.
- 29:10Speaker 4: Blood donations are needed every day to help patience in Colorado.
- 29:13Speaker 4: The one people listening to us more and more every day.
- 29:16Speaker 4: Our biggest growing audience is the detention Center. To them,
- 29:20Speaker 4: I have to say, hey, blood donations are needed every
- 29:22Speaker 4: day to help patients in Colorado. What is the jacket
- 29:27Speaker 4: Mark Raycroft was wearing less night? It was a little
- 29:29Speaker 4: like blood orange, like like I had a little blood.
- 29:32Speaker 5: Out, which brings me to Rick, you are That's exactly
- 29:35Speaker 5: That's a great way to Blood.
- 29:36Speaker 4: Donations are needed every day to help patients in Colorado.
- 29:39Speaker 4: So joined by talent Buddy guys laugh every time I
- 29:42Speaker 4: do this, big booms for.
- 29:44Speaker 3: Blood read why are you always trying to make a
- 29:47Speaker 3: transition and you laugh.
- 29:51Speaker 2: I forgot how shoehorned. Some of those were, Oh my.
- 29:55Speaker 3: Gosh, as what was this color? Like most would ever
- 29:57Speaker 3: say blood orange. You can't even see blood horne. You
- 30:01Speaker 3: don't even know what that color is. It's probably gray.
- 30:03Speaker 5: You know, you have no idea what blood. You're like
- 30:05Speaker 5: a timberwolf. You don't even know.
- 30:07Speaker 4: It was so difficult. People have to acknowledge how difficult
- 30:09Speaker 4: it was for me to make those segues. When Moser
- 30:12Speaker 4: kept walking on my lines all the time. You're all
- 30:16Speaker 4: just speaking of the Mississippi School for Women. That's blood donations.
- 30:20Speaker 2: That's insane, by the way, that's phrazy.
- 30:23Speaker 3: Jesus God, that one was as unhinged as any of
- 30:29Speaker 3: the other ones.
- 30:31Speaker 4: The dying owl raccoon, Yeah.
- 30:35Speaker 5: Oh my god, well that was that's that's when the owl,
- 30:38Speaker 5: the great horned owl, took the head off a raccoon
- 30:42Speaker 5: on Kyle Keep's porch. That's that's you should be to
- 30:47Speaker 5: imagine that on your ring camera at two am. Then
- 30:50Speaker 5: screaming as a raccoon's head is being ripped off by
- 30:53Speaker 5: a great horned owl. That's just insane.
- 30:56Speaker 4: It's actually a good segue, Hey, blood donations are needed
- 30:58Speaker 4: every day. Speaking of screaming, did you guys see last
- 31:02Speaker 4: night I watched this on Sports Center. Did you see
- 31:04Speaker 4: Wilson Treris and that little hubbub with the Brewers, And
- 31:08Speaker 4: I didn't see he got him when he allegedly got
- 31:11Speaker 4: hit in the hand on a on a pitch, hit
- 31:13Speaker 4: by pitch, and then he said, Okay, if it ever
- 31:16Speaker 4: happens again, I'm gonna take you out. So he slides
- 31:18Speaker 4: into third ty Cob style and I mean hard spikes up.
- 31:22Speaker 4: Look this up and he feels, oh yeah, it was nasty.
- 31:27Speaker 4: I'm telling you right now, this Contreras thing, someone is
- 31:30Speaker 4: going to get popped. Last night it finally came to
- 31:33Speaker 4: a boil. He was tired of getting hit by pitches.
- 31:36Speaker 4: He got hit last night and said, if it happens again,
- 31:39Speaker 4: I'm gonna take somebody out. And he did.
- 31:42Speaker 5: Hey, Brett, when you were when you were young, or
- 31:44Speaker 5: when you were playing ball, your spikes were just the
- 31:48Speaker 5: molded heart plastic, right, That's what those were your He
- 31:51Speaker 5: wore spikes, you did, okay, yeah, because back in the day,
- 31:55Speaker 5: I wore metal spikes and we all played with metal
- 31:58Speaker 5: spikes back I mean, you know, I know they have
- 32:00Speaker 5: the hard ones.
- 32:01Speaker 4: Now I wore golf.
- 32:02Speaker 5: I'm telling my Yeah, my legs over the years, like
- 32:07Speaker 5: my lower below the knees. They get you, they would
- 32:10Speaker 5: get torn up. Yeah, they would get they would get
- 32:13Speaker 5: torn up at second or third man. I mean guys,
- 32:16Speaker 5: the guys would come in and they wouldn't give a
- 32:18Speaker 5: rats crap.
- 32:19Speaker 2: So I'm watching now.
- 32:21Speaker 3: Oh yeah, it was almost wasn't so much that he
- 32:25Speaker 3: he even did the ty Cob spikes up. He kind
- 32:29Speaker 3: of jumped and kicked. He was trying to hurt somebody. Yeah, oh,
- 32:33Speaker 3: he was trying to hurt somebody.
- 32:34Speaker 2: Now, I don't know if this is I don't think
- 32:36Speaker 2: this is exaggeration. I don't think so.
- 32:39Speaker 3: But it says Wi Wilson contrast after getting hit by
- 32:41Speaker 3: the Milwaukee Brewers for the twenty fourth time.
- 32:44Speaker 4: Yeah, that's what he said. After the game. He goes,
- 32:46Speaker 4: it's been twenty four times I've been hit by pitches.
- 32:48Speaker 5: By one day. Wait, you're telling me the brew crew
- 32:51Speaker 5: has pegged him twenty four times. That's gotta be that's
- 32:56Speaker 5: gotta be personal. That has to be personal. How do
- 32:58Speaker 5: you plunk one guy torn four times? Yeah, I'd be a.
- 33:03Speaker 2: Little upset to don't I don't know if you guys
- 33:06Speaker 2: know this.
- 33:07Speaker 3: Getting hit with a baseball hurts, hurts more than you
- 33:10Speaker 3: might be, okay, but.
- 33:11Speaker 2: It still hurts. If you get hit in the hand,
- 33:14Speaker 2: you could break eight billion bones.
- 33:16Speaker 4: See this again. Would you rather Mason Miller hit you
- 33:21Speaker 4: in the face?
- 33:22Speaker 2: What now, okay?
- 33:23Speaker 5: Or would you right in the face?
- 33:24Speaker 4: Bro bro No, No, I choose the body part or
- 33:27Speaker 4: would you rather take a slap shot to the face.
- 33:33Speaker 4: You get to choose.
- 33:33Speaker 5: They both could kill you.
- 33:35Speaker 4: Yeah, you could die for me, but you get to
- 33:37Speaker 4: choose one. And you know what it's. It's one of
- 33:39Speaker 4: those torture chamber choices. What's your choice?
- 33:41Speaker 5: All right? The last thing here, Brett.
- 33:44Speaker 2: No, I'm not no, it is my answer.
- 33:46Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm without doing it. But I've been hit by
- 33:48Speaker 5: a pitcher billion times. You have too. The best place
- 33:51Speaker 5: to take it is on the hip or the rump
- 33:53Speaker 5: right or you know, or the upper thought that's easiest.
- 33:57Speaker 5: But even then it's still hurts.
- 34:00Speaker 2: But it still still hurts.
- 34:01Speaker 5: But me and that's the best place to take it.
- 34:04Speaker 5: I've had it drilled in my ribs, in the numbers
- 34:06Speaker 5: off my head, and I'm like, it's it all hurts,
- 34:09Speaker 5: But the best place to take it, and it still
- 34:12Speaker 5: freaking hurts.
- 34:13Speaker 4: Man, you're taking a lemon to the years.
- 34:15Speaker 5: Oh dude, you know that would have killed me. That
- 34:19Speaker 5: would have killed me. Reminder, you don't even feel bad.
- 34:22Speaker 5: The keyword for this hour is Arthur So.
- 34:24Speaker 3: Text that in your first and last name with three
- 34:25Speaker 3: ozho three five four h nine to two five.
- 34:27Speaker 2: Back after this.
- 34:27Speaker 3: Oh, by the way, stories around sports in the world
- 34:30Speaker 3: we feel like you should be aware of. Did you
- 34:32Speaker 3: see that there's an eighty one year old Dodger fan.
- 34:35Speaker 3: He's held season tickets for fifty years.
- 34:38Speaker 2: And he's got a dilemma.
- 34:39Speaker 5: I saw this. I saw this, Vick. You heard the story.
- 34:42Speaker 2: No, So, season ticket aholder for fifty years.
- 34:45Speaker 3: He's eighty one years old. He does not know technology.
- 34:48Speaker 3: He has a flip phone. They are not physically printing
- 34:52Speaker 3: his tickets anymore. They said, if you want tickets to
- 34:54Speaker 3: get into the game, you have to have the digital ticket,
- 34:58Speaker 3: and he goes, I don't know how, and so you
- 35:01Speaker 3: kind of fall on two sides, and I think both
- 35:03Speaker 3: of them have pretty easy solutions.
- 35:05Speaker 2: Hey, Dodgers, just print the guy's tickets.
- 35:08Speaker 4: Just take it easy and give them give him access
- 35:09Speaker 4: to the game.
- 35:11Speaker 2: Hey, get your grandson or something to take you to
- 35:13Speaker 2: Kings print it yourself.
- 35:15Speaker 4: What if he doesn't have one, What if he's gonna
- 35:17Speaker 4: have somebody. I side with the guy. Just print the tickets. No, no,
- 35:22Speaker 4: I am so sick of this digitization of society. No
- 35:26Speaker 4: I miss a good paper ticket. I do to, Actually
- 35:28Speaker 4: I miss it holding a paper ticket.
- 35:32Speaker 5: To prove his point, he went to the box office
- 35:37Speaker 5: and bought tickets to a game, and they gave him
- 35:40Speaker 5: three printed tickets at the box office. Good for him,
- 35:44Speaker 5: said they can't they they can print them if they
- 35:48Speaker 5: wanted to, because they print because because of the box office, Brett,
- 35:52Speaker 5: they give you three printed tickets to take to the
- 35:54Speaker 5: gate and to get in, so they could if they
- 35:56Speaker 5: wanted to. But he's been a Sision ticket over fifty
- 35:59Speaker 5: years at Dodger Stadium and they told them to get
- 36:02Speaker 5: bent go. But by the way, my parents need don't.
- 36:04Speaker 4: Own a phone. How do you expect them to get
- 36:06Speaker 4: into a game. They don't own the phone?
- 36:08Speaker 5: Right?
- 36:09Speaker 4: My parents don't own a phone.
- 36:10Speaker 2: No I know, I know.
- 36:11Speaker 4: So unless they go with somebody that own owns a phone,
- 36:14Speaker 4: they're not getting into a game.
- 36:17Speaker 2: I totally agree with you.
- 36:18Speaker 3: It's Look, I think for everybody, digital tickets are like
- 36:24Speaker 3: this the standard you should do. But if somebody requests
- 36:26Speaker 3: physical tickets, they should have physical tickets.
- 36:28Speaker 5: Or you just tell them.
- 36:29Speaker 2: Have you ever pick them up at will call or
- 36:30Speaker 2: something when you get to the stadium whatever.
- 36:33Speaker 5: But if you've been there, like in line to get
- 36:34Speaker 5: into a like a show or whatever, and like you
- 36:37Speaker 5: can't get a hold of the Wi Fi, or there's
- 36:39Speaker 5: too many people hogging up the yes, you know the phone,
- 36:42Speaker 5: and like it won't load in your hed, so you
- 36:44Speaker 5: gotta step out, you gotta step out of line. I
- 36:46Speaker 5: know people put them in their wallet ahead of time.
- 36:48Speaker 5: I don't always do that. Maybe it's on me.
- 36:51Speaker 3: Maybe it's on And let me tell you something right now.
- 36:53Speaker 3: This might be Look, there are things about me, as
- 36:56Speaker 3: you guys know. Or I'm very old. I'm very old.
- 36:59Speaker 3: I'm very old. Haste in music. I still print my
- 37:03Speaker 3: boarding pass. I have the physical boarding pass in my
- 37:05Speaker 3: hand because sometimes that stupid app doesn't work. And I
- 37:08Speaker 3: know you can just take the screenshot of it, but
- 37:10Speaker 3: I'm wanna FuMB around my phone.
- 37:11Speaker 2: I'm gonna take the ticket.
- 37:12Speaker 5: Woo be done.
- 37:13Speaker 4: The greatest two hours of my life Sunday mornings when
- 37:19Speaker 4: I get the physical newspaper at my doorstep and I
- 37:22Speaker 4: thumb through that physical newspaper with my reading glasses while
- 37:26Speaker 4: watching CBS this morning.
- 37:28Speaker 2: You're gonna love this, Vic, You're gonna absolutely love this.
- 37:31Speaker 3: So I get the Sunday paper every week as well
- 37:33Speaker 3: because I like my crosswords, but I need to do
- 37:35Speaker 3: it on paper. I don't do it on on my laptop.
- 37:39Speaker 3: Do you know what baby Jamal Cale does with me now?
- 37:42Speaker 3: She doesn't even understand it. She reads the comics as
- 37:47Speaker 3: I read the paper. And when I say reads the comics,
- 37:49Speaker 3: she looks at the cartoons.
- 37:50Speaker 4: Good for you, that's good. She's starting. She's starting to read.
- 37:53Speaker 3: Then she's like, Daddy, what does this one saying? I
- 37:55Speaker 3: was like, it's about President Trump. I don't think you're
- 37:58Speaker 3: gonna get that one. We'll just say with Garfield. I
- 38:02Speaker 3: think we'll just do Garfield.
- 38:03Speaker 4: I gotta know. By the way, oh, by the way,
- 38:06Speaker 4: what is the biggest story in the NBA this season?
- 38:10Speaker 4: It was an investigation, a conspiracy of sorts that nothing
- 38:13Speaker 4: has happened since it came out. You guys know what
- 38:15Speaker 4: it was?
- 38:16Speaker 5: The uh tree, the tree farm, the tree Farming Clippers.
- 38:21Speaker 4: Yeah, the salary cap salary cap circumvention allegations, uh, for
- 38:27Speaker 4: the LA Clippers, and nothing has happened, Nothing has emerged.
- 38:31Speaker 4: You guys at all curious why nothing has happened? Is
- 38:33Speaker 4: it a non story?
- 38:34Speaker 2: They? I know, nothing ex happened.
- 38:36Speaker 3: Why because if they were to punish somebody, it would
- 38:40Speaker 3: have to be so severe that they don't want to
- 38:43Speaker 3: deal with the ramifications of that.
- 38:45Speaker 4: Are you thinking they don't want to do that because
- 38:46Speaker 4: maybe other teams are doing it too and they don't
- 38:48Speaker 4: want to open up pendor's box.
- 38:50Speaker 2: Yep.
- 38:50Speaker 4: Well, let me give you an example. Let me give
- 38:52Speaker 4: you an example. I'm going to the w NBA for
- 38:54Speaker 4: this one. The w NBA has opened an investigation into
- 38:59Speaker 4: the Las Vegas Aces for salary caps or convention. You
- 39:03Speaker 4: know how they were doing it. Every player who played
- 39:06Speaker 4: for the Aces, remember their dominant team dominant roster, received
- 39:09Speaker 4: one hundred thousand dollars every player from the l from
- 39:13Speaker 4: the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority. So like tourism
- 39:17Speaker 4: is very important in Las Vegas, right.
- 39:18Speaker 2: So like a parents fee or something.
- 39:21Speaker 4: The Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority paid each player
- 39:25Speaker 4: on the team one hundred grand.
- 39:27Speaker 2: Yeah, that's cheating.
- 39:28Speaker 3: That is that is adding money to the cap when
- 39:31Speaker 3: you don't have money in the cap.
- 39:33Speaker 4: And so I go back to Kawhi Leonard and the
- 39:36Speaker 4: tree farm and all that stuff. Interesting how that was
- 39:38Speaker 4: sort of stuffed in the corner.
- 39:40Speaker 3: This is why I'm saying vic like, this is not
- 39:42Speaker 3: an allegation. I'm just using an example. What if after
- 39:45Speaker 3: they won the championship, the Kronkiers are like, hey, Joker,
- 39:49Speaker 3: take the private plane back to Serbia.
- 39:50Speaker 5: You deserve it.
- 39:52Speaker 3: That is technically something that's not allowed because that is
- 39:56Speaker 3: extra money you're giving to an individual on your team.
- 39:58Speaker 4: You can't do it, Like where's the la do you
- 40:00Speaker 4: draw the line?
- 40:01Speaker 2: And I don't think they want to deal with that.
- 40:03Speaker 3: So they're like, hey, we're investigating, and the investigation becomes
- 40:07Speaker 3: sweep this under the rug as fast as possible.
- 40:11Speaker 5: But do you recall back in the late nineties, after
- 40:13Speaker 5: the Marlins won the World Series, Kevin Brown, the pitcher,
- 40:17Speaker 5: signed with the Dodgers. Remember that this is where no cap.
- 40:20Speaker 5: This is where no cap. You do whatever you want
- 40:21Speaker 5: no cap. You know, part of it was no cap, bro,
- 40:24Speaker 5: part of it was he gets the fly on the team,
- 40:27Speaker 5: playing whenever he wants. Remember that, Yeah, that was in
- 40:30Speaker 5: his contract. Yeah. Or he gets like he gets like
- 40:32Speaker 5: eleven you know, private plane, Dodger private playing trips per
- 40:37Speaker 5: year and all this kind of crap that was built
- 40:39Speaker 5: in because there is no cap, you can do whatever
- 40:40Speaker 5: the hell you want.
- 40:43Speaker 3: There's another problem in the NBA right now, as both
- 40:47Speaker 3: the seventy six Ers and Bucks are being investigated. And
- 40:50Speaker 3: how's this for funny and ironic? Joelle Embiid was upset
- 40:56Speaker 3: because the Sixers did not allow him to play. He said,
- 41:00Speaker 3: I was pissed off. I wanted to play basketball. I
- 41:03Speaker 3: wasn't allowed to play basketball. I think this is more
- 41:05Speaker 3: of a Daryl Morey question.
- 41:07Speaker 2: So Wow, the.
- 41:08Speaker 3: Guy who sits out all the time because of load
- 41:10Speaker 3: management and hasn't played in Denver since twenty nineteen is
- 41:13Speaker 3: not complaining about not being able to play basketball.
- 41:15Speaker 4: Giannis is doing the same thing in Milwaukee, Yiannis.
- 41:18Speaker 2: There's an investigation going on because Giannis is saying I'm
- 41:21Speaker 2: healthy and should play, and the Bucks are saying he
- 41:24Speaker 2: can't play, he's unhealthy.
- 41:25Speaker 5: Unreal?
- 41:25Speaker 4: What's happening?
- 41:27Speaker 5: Unreal? Why are there's why I'm not calling him scandals
- 41:31Speaker 5: because they don't want to win.
- 41:32Speaker 4: These teams don't want to win too much.
- 41:35Speaker 5: But you know what I'm saying, because the NBA's got
- 41:37Speaker 5: real problems right now, or it feels like it does.
- 41:40Speaker 5: It just feels like there's something all the time in
- 41:43Speaker 5: the NBA all the time.
- 41:44Speaker 4: Well, you're right, it's one of those what's what's an
- 41:48Speaker 4: NBA day without some sort of conspiracy or conflict? And
- 41:51Speaker 4: that's good and bad news. Bad pr is good pr. Right,
- 41:54Speaker 4: there's always something going on in the NBA. Always, we're
- 41:58Speaker 4: always whining about something. Some would look at that and
- 42:01Speaker 4: say what's wrong with the league? Others would say that
- 42:03Speaker 4: means you got a healthy league and people interested.
- 42:05Speaker 3: Here's the quote, no doubt about it. Here's the quote
- 42:07Speaker 3: from you honest. I'm available to play, but I'm not
- 42:10Speaker 3: in the game. I'm available to play today right now?
- 42:14Speaker 3: Do I look like I'm not available? I don't see
- 42:16Speaker 3: myself in the first twelve. I don't see myself in
- 42:18Speaker 3: the starting lineup. I don't know what game is being
- 42:20Speaker 3: played right here. I just don't want to be a
- 42:22Speaker 3: part of it.
- 42:23Speaker 2: Wow, wow, yeah.
- 42:29Speaker 4: I only go ahead.
- 42:30Speaker 6: You got one we recently crossed oh by the way,
- 42:33Speaker 6: a very momentous anniversary in baseball history. So I need
- 42:38Speaker 6: to go all the way back to April third, nineteen nineteen.
- 42:43Speaker 6: The Yankees were in Florida for spring training and Yankees
- 42:48Speaker 6: owner Cap Hustin had an idea for a publicity stunt,
- 42:51Speaker 6: so he decided to have his outfielder Ping Body battle
- 42:56Speaker 6: Percy the Ostrich from the Jacksonville Zoo in an eating contest. Now,
- 43:01Speaker 6: Ping was allowed to choose the dish, and he chose
- 43:03Speaker 6: his favorite, which was spaghetti. Sounds reasonable, And they set
- 43:06Speaker 6: it up like a boxing match. They were in a ring,
- 43:08Speaker 6: and they went one plate at a time, one round
- 43:10Speaker 6: at a time. So Ping immediately ditches the fork. He
- 43:13Speaker 6: just goes handfuls of spaghetti. They went round for round.
- 43:17Speaker 4: Isn't this the plot from Semi Pro?
- 43:19Speaker 6: Yeah, it may as well be. They went round for
- 43:21Speaker 6: round for ten straight rounds. Then finally, in the eleventh
- 43:25Speaker 6: round or the eleventh plate if you will, the Ostrich
- 43:29Speaker 6: passed out face planted into his spaghetti god and Ping
- 43:33Speaker 6: Body finished his eleventh plate. He was crowned the eating
- 43:36Speaker 6: champion of the world.
- 43:38Speaker 5: See, now you.
- 43:38Speaker 2: Want to have pet would have something to say about that.
- 43:41Speaker 4: I got you want to do these grotesque eating competitions
- 43:44Speaker 4: that people participate in, do it against an animal and
- 43:49Speaker 4: let's go.
- 43:49Speaker 3: I still remember that scene from Semi Pro Come.
- 43:54Speaker 2: Back up Tuesday.
- 43:55Speaker 5: I want to wrestle a bear.
- 43:57Speaker 2: It's impressing. You could written my head off.
- 44:01Speaker 5: Hey man, hey man, I got a thought now, all right,
- 44:05Speaker 5: me versus I gotta think of the size of the
- 44:08Speaker 5: animal woodchuck, muskrat, beaver, something like me versus that drinking beer.
- 44:15Speaker 5: I'll take on an animal that that will drink beer.
- 44:18Speaker 5: I'll tell you what.
- 44:18Speaker 3: I'm gonna go hang out with what's our what's our
- 44:20Speaker 3: girl's name? Over in North Korea, Azalea? The Chimp Peter contest.

- 44:31Speaker 5: the TV.
