• 0:23
  Speaker 1: Hello, everybody walking to the second half of our doubleheader.
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: We had the Motor City Mad Mouse Show earlier with
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: myself and former New York Mets manager Mickey Callaway. Tonight
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: we have myself, Candy, George, Jacob Crisser, and possibly Willy
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: ef the night and the title of the show, what
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: would you buy ten billion dollars? Why would I lead
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: off with something like that because our we're gonna talk
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: about the Lakers want to take everybody for being back house.
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: I want to send a cecil shout out to Stephen Reichel,
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: who did a really good job than Troop. Jad Wyatt
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: sat in with for well, they all did a good jubble.
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: Candy and I were out in Europe doing ear thing,
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: and everybody else up is fated to try to keep
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: everything going. Tottenuity wis with that said, well theft he
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: maybe on a little bit later. He had another commitment tonight,
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: but we got to kick things rolling nevertheless. You see
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: the title you mentioned the cruise. But before we left,
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: the Buck family then earned an agreement to sell with
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: your ownership to Mark Walter, the CEO and chairman of
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: diversified holding company t WG Global, for ten billion dollars.
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: Jerry buff purchased the Lakers for sixty seven point five
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: million in nineteen seventy nine. George Dykorn, what are your
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: thoughts about what took place with the Lakers here in
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: that sale.
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: That's an awful lot of money, my friends, That's an
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: awful lot and I think you know, when you got
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: Lebron James, they're still driving that ship. Of course you're
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: going to have a huge, huge paycheck and to buy
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: the team. I mean, now, the NBA obviously has grown,
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: Let's just face the facts. I mean, we have seen
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: the vision ratings go up, and the number of teams
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: and the playoffs, and then they're trying to extend a
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: lot of things. But as far as the Lakers go,
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: I think that that again is one of the jewels
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: I call them, for lack of a better term, that
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: you're gonna see for purchase. And obviously, you know, I'm
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: not gonna get off on a tangent, but you got
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: the Yankees and and you know the Dallas Cowboys and
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: that kind of stuff. But the Lakers, they are definitely premiere.
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: Are they worth that much? I could never afford it.
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: I think it's insane. To be honest with you. But
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: people around the league and people that are more in
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: tune with it might say that maybe it's a steel
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: even I don't know, but I just know this. The
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: Lakers haven't done anything guys for years now, Okay nothing
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: and I'll leave it at that. No.
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: A couple of years ago they won the title COVID,
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: but they still want No. Number seventeen. Maggie Johnson did
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: predict that when the Boston Celtics is going to be sold,
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: that Lakers will catch much bigger return than they did,
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: So I would think that's or something. All right, take that,
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: what do you think?
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: Well, George, that's only two or three no day and
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: then you got so you know it's but no, I
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: brought this up earlier and enough to shoot camera thing.
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: It's like they got this with Lebron. It's like you
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: had this with Lebron. You've won a recent bubble ring,
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: but it's still a ring. You've got all this, you
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: get yourself a time while you can't do it, and
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: see people forget with these sales, what these what these
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: teams are trying to do and He's always trying to
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: do when they sell it like you're here. For instance,
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: the Pittsburgh Pirates fans keep saying sell them team nutting.
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: Now about nutting, it's like, okay, you have one player,
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: maybe two, and and you might have to trade them
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: just to try to get more things in the first place,
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: if you keep me in bed, So what would he
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: have to be able to get a value that he
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: would want in the first place? That goes to all
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: these other bad teams when they say something like this.
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: So it's like, and as much as I this is
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: the truth. The mccaskey's are old, the old dusty ashtrays
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: are dead.
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: Is dead.
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: So it's like they're gonna sell. The mc caskie's gonna
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: sell eventually. They're hoping. As much as I can't stand
• 4:14
  Speaker 3: call Williams, are hoping he succeeds. So they have value.
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: It's the truth. They're really because you want to be
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: able to have value, to be able to get something,
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: then you have to have to do this. The Lakers
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: are value, no matter what. If a Yankee sold to
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: be twenty billion. It's just the ways of the things. Yes,
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: it's just it's just, I mean, no matter what the
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: thing is, it is what is on television, it's like
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: what gets on and the.
• 4:39
  Speaker 4: Bears would be pretty close to because they've been so.
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: I mean, they've been around since nineteen twenty. You're getting
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: those type of deals. But and then the Lions was
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: shock yet because they're the four family hypothetical. So remember
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: this type of deal. That's what you have. It's the
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: fact that what can you get for the value? And
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: the Lakers are value.
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: You know, you bring up a couple of interesting points
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: in there and alternately candy. In a minute, you think
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: of would other franchises that could be left worth that
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: type of money? The only ones that I can think of, Well,
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: we know the Knicks will be worth a boatload of money.
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: I think I definitely believe that they'd be worth a
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: boatload of money. And we know about the Yankees, but
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: I'm talking about the NBA. Per say, I don't know
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: if you can do much more than the NIXT because
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: they have to garden and everything else to connect it
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: with the properties as well, so you can purchase that
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: property as a whole. But you have the south Ks,
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: the Lakers, and I think the Knicks will be the
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: only one that could supersede that ten billion total. I
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: don't know, And well, and we'll come over the other
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: answer to that question for the headline in a minute.
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: But what do you think, Candy about the return on
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: Eventstan I'd say one thing, the Buck family Geni bus
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: made a good deal there when you bought it for
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: sixty seven point nine million dollars. That what I said earlier.
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: It's sixty seven point five excuse me, and you're getting
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: ten billions a pretty the ROI let the little championships
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: to go with it, Candy ticket from there.
• 6:09
  Speaker 5: Ten billion dollars.
• 6:15
  Speaker 6: I work in a bank and I can't imagine that
• 6:18
  Speaker 6: kind of bunny like that many Candy.
• 6:21
  Speaker 5: No. Sorry.
• 6:23
  Speaker 6: And the interesting part is is Genie is actually going
• 6:27
  Speaker 6: to remain governor even after the sale is complete, so
• 6:31
  Speaker 6: she's gonna be still representing the team. You know, last
• 6:37
  Speaker 6: year the Celtics were sold for six.
• 6:40
  Speaker 5: Point one billion.
• 6:43
  Speaker 6: Now we're talking about and let's be completely honest, he
• 6:48
  Speaker 6: already owned part of the makers, so this isn't like
• 6:52
  Speaker 6: he bought the whole thing. He already owned part of them.
• 6:56
  Speaker 6: So ten billion. They're saying that the eventual value the
• 7:00
  Speaker 6: team could be twelve billion or more, you know, just
• 7:04
  Speaker 6: because he's he bought a majority. Now to get him
• 7:10
  Speaker 6: and did ten billion dollars. But it just what it
• 7:17
  Speaker 6: does to me is that it tells me that there
• 7:20
  Speaker 6: is such a big diverse where there's there are some
• 7:27
  Speaker 6: people that are so rich and then there's the other
• 7:31
  Speaker 6: end of the spectrum, and it just really, uh.
• 7:34
  Speaker 5: It amazes me. I mean, you know.
• 7:40
  Speaker 6: What other teams could be worth, like, yeah, the Yankees,
• 7:44
  Speaker 6: the Dodgers, I mean, at some point are going to
• 7:47
  Speaker 6: be up there. What other big teams are going to
• 7:51
  Speaker 6: be worth that kind of money? And where does it stop?
• 7:54
  Speaker 6: Like where I mean does it stop? Like will it
• 7:58
  Speaker 6: come to the point where you won't have people one
• 8:02
  Speaker 6: per Like that's why there's groups that are buying them
• 8:05
  Speaker 6: more so nowadays.
• 8:07
  Speaker 5: Because not one person can afford them, you know.
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: And that was the point I was making candy with
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: something like that, and it's a consortium now all of
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: these Yeah, and well realize, realize the big thing about
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: this is it's like so many people that are worth
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: like say the Elons and all that stuff worth that
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: however much. Remember it's based on value. They don't have
• 8:31
  Speaker 3: that much liquid, right, They're not buying this team's off
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: of liquid cash. They've never you can't get that much,
• 8:40
  Speaker 3: So you're getting it based off of everybody else's in
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: the first place. I mean remember Shack the sold four
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: percent of the Kings years ago, got about two.
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: Hundred million out of it.
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: That's right.
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, So.
• 8:52
  Speaker 3: It's like you're just getting you're getting your end and
• 8:54
  Speaker 3: you and personally to me, if I Bill Maher also
• 8:58
  Speaker 3: sold the Hiss five percent of them and he got
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: about two hundred million two for the Mets. So it's
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: like a lot of these now are It's one thing
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: if you're like they talk about Bob Nutting and stuff
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: like that, but it's.
• 9:13
  Speaker 4: One thing no matter what.
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: The whole thing with Pittsburgh, they are the last of
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: a thought process of this is an owner that wants
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: to win. That's what the Pittsburgh wants. This is the
• 9:27
  Speaker 3: last of that because they're going for value and they're
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: going for money and be able to sell off their
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: end and stuff like that. Yeah, and see the pirates
• 9:37
  Speaker 3: act and the fans act like that because it is
• 9:39
  Speaker 3: one owner. But they ain't gonna be that way much longer.
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: It's going to be because the money is just so
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: much and there's not that much cash.
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: That's a good point. Well, think about what's happening on torone,
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: but make believe garden, sports, entertainment and buying all that
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: out too. Yeah, and I'm only all the way take
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: the You're totally on target with that. So let's go.
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: Let's have a little fun this whole thing. What would
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: you buy? Or ten billion dollars candy? Ten billion? A painter?
• 10:06
  Speaker 5: I mean, man, I don't know what I would buy? Like,
• 10:13
  Speaker 5: I don't know.
• 10:13
  Speaker 6: I mean, you invested obviously? Is is the Lakers the
• 10:16
  Speaker 6: thing that invested?
• 10:17
  Speaker 5: And I don't know.
• 10:17
  Speaker 6: If I bought, i'd buy probably a couple of different sports,
• 10:23
  Speaker 6: you know, and probably some good businesses.
• 10:26
  Speaker 5: I mean, I don't know. You know, is Apple for sale?
• 10:29
  Speaker 5: And how much would you you know?
• 10:31
  Speaker 3: They'd be worth three hundred billion? They wouldn't give her ten.
• 10:35
  Speaker 6: Right, but you know what an investment like that, something
• 10:39
  Speaker 6: to make more money?
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: Okay, all right? What about you, Jacob?
• 10:46
  Speaker 4: The Bears?
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: What about George?
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: I would buy? You know, I love my baseball, the
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: Detroit Tigers and a boy.
• 10:58
  Speaker 5: Okay, okay, Scott? Would you buy?
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: I would buy a nice piece of property with a
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: lot of land out in Iceland. Iceland, it was so
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: serene out there. I didn't want to come back. I
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: really wanted to stay up there. I see why people
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: that get away from all this nonsense. Even though I
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: couldn't get new service on my phone and I'm giving
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: a like for a riot act about who's who's passing
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: and who is it? And then I enjoyed it up there.
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: It was still nice to be away from all this
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: or two weeks, it really was. I only I love
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: doing what we do here on the network. I zero
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: problem with that. And if that, if that wasn't and
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: I will act for money, not tell you what I
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: would do. I would if that's a little bit of
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: money in the Chelsea Football Club out in the United Kingdom,
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: because they're my new toy out in there.
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: Tell me, yes, I saw, I saw the pictures. You
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: guys were there. That's great, unbelievable, that's great.
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: What I do.
• 11:57
  Speaker 3: It's like, I do eight billion for that, and do
• 12:00
  Speaker 3: the other two billion. But after the new stadium for
• 12:04
  Speaker 3: the whole thing with the battery and the in Atlanta,
• 12:07
  Speaker 3: do that kind of a battery around the new Chicago
• 12:09
  Speaker 3: Bears Stadium and make money in real estate.
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: Well, I don't know. Chelsea was my new toy for
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: the end of the trip, and I don't like the Iceland.
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: I didn't really particularly like the last day when it
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: was raining and it was cold. But there's nothing about
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: Iceland I didn't like out there. It was just so
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: up there, and I was there before a lot of
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: people made it there. Candy will say, yeah, I know
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: you even stopped talking about that forever, but just let
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: everybody know. For all of u folks out there listening
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: for the first time, I had a lot of good
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: videos coming from the European trip there and Iceland, So
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: stay tuned. After we get back from Motown, we're gonna
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: start working on some of that stuff. So Iceland and
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: my new toy, the soccer team, Chelsea Football Club. I'll
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: take it. No big deal, all right, But since Kennedy
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: presented the question, I'll make sure everybody had it was
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: in an answer, and we'll see if Bully gets a
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: chance to answer to those same questions. That was fine,
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: no bigtail, Well place him next week. Next topic of
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: the night, Ryan Harper blast today players are being selfish.
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: It's all about what they do, it's not about what
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: the team does. Harper has an issue with today player
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: not knowing the history of the game. So all right, George,
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: what do you think.
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: Well, I have a lot of respect for mister Harper, obviously,
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: and I think when you take a look at what
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: he's saying, I mean, he's not too far from the truth.
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: I mean, there are there are You can't lump everybody
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: in Okay, you can't lump everybody on a even on
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: a team, and I mean, but so many of them,
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: we see that they lack of respect, they lack the
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: respect of the history of the game. And that's what
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: really bothers me too. So I'm glad Ron spoke out
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: because what happens is the whole me generation. When that
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: whole me generation started and kicked off, if you will,
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: in the NBA and in the Major League Baseball other
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: leagues as well. I mean, you saw what happened. You know.
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: They all want to be number one, they all want
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: to be uh paid the most. They all want to
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: have the spotlight on them and all the big contracts
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: for advertisements and stuff. But get back to reality, and
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: the reality is it takes a team, and it takes
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: every player on that team. I know everybody has superstars.
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: I'm not dumb. I know that. But what Harper is
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: kind of saying, is hey, look, you know, learn about
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: the history. My god, the guys that played this sport,
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: you know, the Bob Coosey's for example, and and and
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: the Larry Birds, as you always talk about, Jacob, and
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: what a great the Larry Bird, magic Johnson era, and
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: many many more. But the fact the matter is is
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: that more people, yet more players have a history and
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: a respect for that history. Know a little bit what
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: what what worked back then? Okay, now it's not going
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: to maybe be this right now, but nowhere you came
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: from nowhere. The position was of this sport that you're
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: participating in the NBA, for example, and you'll you'll be
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: better off for it, better educated for sure.
• 15:13
  Speaker 3: Good point, all right, Jacob, It's all started because Ace
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: Bailey over in. I believe utah v Ace Bailey. I
• 15:21
  Speaker 3: know it's with him because he didn't know John Stockton
• 15:24
  Speaker 3: was when he walked by him.
• 15:25
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and he said, and he said.
• 15:27
  Speaker 3: To himself, and he said to himself that he was
• 15:29
  Speaker 3: born in two thousand blah blah blah blah, and two thousand,
• 15:32
  Speaker 3: two thousands, that he grew up with Kobe and Lebro
• 15:35
  Speaker 3: and all that kind of stuff like that. But see,
• 15:37
  Speaker 3: here's where the issue goes. I have tried and I will.
• 15:43
  Speaker 3: There are and you brought Larry Birds. Let me bring
• 15:45
  Speaker 3: up this other idea. Okay, I there are a bunch
• 15:49
  Speaker 3: of let's see influencers, mcs, rap guys, all that kind
• 15:53
  Speaker 3: of stuff like that, who look at they have their
• 15:56
  Speaker 3: own YouTube channels and they look at old Larry Bird
• 15:58
  Speaker 3: things and absolutely, oh my god, this trucker looks awesome
• 16:02
  Speaker 3: and that's our head. But it's like, oh my god,
• 16:04
  Speaker 3: he might I thought he was old. I thought he
• 16:06
  Speaker 3: was just a shooter. Oh my god, he's gotten the
• 16:08
  Speaker 3: swag and that kind of stuff.
• 16:10
  Speaker 4: They do that.
• 16:11
  Speaker 3: I've told them over and over and over and over
• 16:15
  Speaker 3: to watch the seven games of the nineteen eighty four finals.
• 16:21
  Speaker 4: I've told them.
• 16:22
  Speaker 3: Too, and as I said, because it is the greatest
• 16:24
  Speaker 3: finals and we will ever see over. I've had one
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: take me up on it and he couldn't get through
• 16:29
  Speaker 3: five minutes. And you know why, it's because of the
• 16:34
  Speaker 3: the standard definition television and the short shorts. The it
• 16:39
  Speaker 3: is the idea of something like this they can't get past.
• 16:43
  Speaker 4: They weren't born around that.
• 16:45
  Speaker 3: We saw the short shorts, we saw standard death, we
• 16:48
  Speaker 3: saw blurringness on our TV. We saw the you know,
• 16:52
  Speaker 3: it's like we saw how Boston Garden was lit, and
• 16:54
  Speaker 3: we saw.
• 16:55
  Speaker 4: How LA was lit.
• 16:55
  Speaker 3: La was lit like a movie Boston Garden was lit
• 16:59
  Speaker 3: where he saw the fans give a point, and it's like,
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: we saw all those deals were dark in the stands
• 17:05
  Speaker 3: and do all that. You don't have that anymore. They're
• 17:08
  Speaker 3: not used to it. They're not used to standard depth,
• 17:10
  Speaker 3: they're not used to short shorts. They make fun of
• 17:12
  Speaker 3: it and they laugh at it. So they're not gonna
• 17:15
  Speaker 3: get up to the history because they're gonna their history
• 17:19
  Speaker 3: will go from like two thousand and three and four
• 17:21
  Speaker 3: two thousand and one, when the long shorts came in.
• 17:23
  Speaker 3: They're gonna stick right there. It's because what they're used to.
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: What about you, Candy, What do you think? Candy? Andy? Wow, Candy, yep,
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: what do you think? Were you absorbing all of that?
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 17:46
  Speaker 5: I was?
• 17:47
  Speaker 6: I was.
• 17:49
  Speaker 5: Repeated again. I'm sorry.
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, I'll pull a sponge out of the kitchen.
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: The minster she absorbs the next one, I guarantee it.
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: But what do the players actually know the history of
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: the game.
• 18:04
  Speaker 5: Oh, We've talked about this numerous times. Before.
• 18:08
  Speaker 6: Most most players do not know the history and can't
• 18:13
  Speaker 6: go back and tell you some of the greats that
• 18:15
  Speaker 6: have played before them, whether it be baseball, basketball, football,
• 18:22
  Speaker 6: any of them. We've talked, We've talked with the young
• 18:26
  Speaker 6: players and they can't name some of the big names.
• 18:30
  Speaker 5: It's it's sad.
• 18:31
  Speaker 6: But then again, do they know history of the United States?
• 18:36
  Speaker 6: Are they even United States citizens playing in here? Do
• 18:40
  Speaker 6: they know about our history or do they?
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: You know?
• 18:44
  Speaker 6: So it's sad because somebody paved the way before them,
• 18:49
  Speaker 6: and it would be nice if they knew that who
• 18:52
  Speaker 6: they were.
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: Well, you know what, I'm going back to topic, can
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: feel with this one. George knows where I'm going with this.
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: Mike Moroth, Troy Person will remember that story. I was
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: asking Mike Morock if you knew who Mickey Loland didn't
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: know he was. Troy Purstall said, you don't know who
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: Mickey Lolach is. No, I don't know. I'm gonna tell you.
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: Troy personal gave him a history lesson like you wouldn't believe.
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: And I said, yeah, so I have to Troy. A
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: lot of these guys don't know the history games now
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: they don't.
• 19:24
  Speaker 4: Well remember this, Scott we all have gray hair, so
• 19:28
  Speaker 4: we thought.
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Well, on Monday, I saw a lot of my
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: gray hair get cut off of it. It looked like
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: white and silver before I came back to Detroit. But
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: I'm with you, But let me tell you that when
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: I was talking to Troy Percival over at Tropic Canada
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: Fields and Mike Moroth didn't know who Mickey Lowland was
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: and they were wearing the number twenty nine, it became
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: a bit more magnified. But Ron Harper's that on a
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: lot of these players don't know came before them and
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: why they're earning all this money. Ever heard of taint
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: the lay? They never knew who take till they was
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: they Now now they're reaping the benefits of everything that
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: the modern enda has to offer.
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: I heard one guy say one Scott, what the heck
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: is Who's Laurence O'Brian, Why is this? Why is this
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: named after some irishmen Larry? They had no clue who
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: the former commissioners were. But that's kind of a funny
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: thing I heard as of aside a couple of years
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: back from one of the players. Really dumb, but do
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: some research you'll know who Lawrence O'Brien is.
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah, let me tell you, these player should be able
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: to do research. We could have their cell phones with
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: them in their pocket, let alone by the locker room.
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: So the research is a lot easier now than they entergy.
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: Yeah that too, but they should be able to do
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: a lot more now than they ever have. All right,
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: next topic before we go on to the station brink
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: shake Gilderness. Alexander had opportunity to get a five year,
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: three hundred million dollar contract, but instead he's going to
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: take a four year deal worth two hundred and eighty
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: five million. And if that isn't enough, his teammate chet
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: Holmgren get two hundred and fifty million for five hundred
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: and thirty five million for both of these guys. So
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: you know the fact that it is is he could
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: have had that three eighty million in twenty twenty six,
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: he took the lower amount of money. Now, Oklahoma City
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: has a really good nucleus for a while. Don't take candy.
• 21:22
  Speaker 5: They do they do normally you go to me, last,
• 21:26
  Speaker 5: go to me last.
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: Okay, Well, I don't know. I have to make sure
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: that I had to make sure we can keep you
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: with it.
• 21:34
  Speaker 6: So I'm here I'm here, all right, we'll go.
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: To We'll go to Jacob. That was an old trick,
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: by the way, I learned from Colonel K many years
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: ago when I was in here. You know, I'm having
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: fun with the candy. Everybody gotta get the Colonel K treatment. Tonight.
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: I had a hard time keeping attention with the guy
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: that only wrote five novels. He called on me, But
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: after a while we got along. God, I gotta be
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: for the class. I could say another story about it
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: down the road, but I used this one time to
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: stay for a week, and I got the message, stay
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: with the program. Okay. Well, I haven't feeling that Andy
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: will stay with the program because she'll do a station
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: breaks when we're done. All right, Cake, you know where
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: I'm going with it. They go, okay, see except for
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: a while.
• 22:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah, in a way, Shay for sure, because he's he's
• 22:17
  Speaker 3: stayed healthy.
• 22:18
  Speaker 4: I'm not sure about Chet and.
• 22:20
  Speaker 3: I and I still don't understand how the I absolutely
• 22:24
  Speaker 3: still do not understand how the parents named him Chet.
• 22:26
  Speaker 4: He sayds like a seventy year old at.
• 22:27
  Speaker 3: A blue dress festival, right, that name for a young
• 22:31
  Speaker 3: kid like that, But for home grin, I'm not sure
• 22:34
  Speaker 3: about him because he's already gotten but he's already that size,
• 22:38
  Speaker 3: and he's already had been out for a year of
• 22:40
  Speaker 3: the foot entry.
• 22:41
  Speaker 4: Right, It's like they're doing this and now see this
• 22:44
  Speaker 4: is what owners do.
• 22:45
  Speaker 3: They do it the right now why you can't do
• 22:47
  Speaker 3: it and they're afraid that he might get healthy and
• 22:50
  Speaker 3: go somewhere else, you know, so you can lock him down.
• 22:53
  Speaker 3: The problem is, it's kind of like the whole situation
• 22:58
  Speaker 3: with Tyler for football, Tyler Schuck and Michael Pennix, they
• 23:03
  Speaker 3: went out three and two times in college alone, you know,
• 23:08
  Speaker 3: for the year, and it's like if you're trying, but
• 23:11
  Speaker 3: then but then they'll have short term they'll have this
• 23:13
  Speaker 3: short memory. When they want to be able to lock
• 23:15
  Speaker 3: him down, they have one time only and look what happens,
• 23:18
  Speaker 3: and then they can get hurt again. Chet Holger, I'm
• 23:21
  Speaker 3: not sure. I'm really not sure, just because that height
• 23:24
  Speaker 3: and he and for his height, he plays so diggy.
• 23:29
  Speaker 3: It's like, for instance, I loved Bill Walton and the
• 23:32
  Speaker 3: way he moved, the way he moved on to the thing,
• 23:35
  Speaker 3: especially as the Celtics, and yet he had foot problems
• 23:39
  Speaker 3: and he and he had the live speet history chet
• 23:42
  Speaker 3: Holdinger plays hard and he's gonna and he's already been
• 23:46
  Speaker 3: out for a year with a foot injury. I don't
• 23:48
  Speaker 3: know how many how long does it take for he
• 23:50
  Speaker 3: gets another injury and then they're having to pay him anyway.
• 23:53
  Speaker 3: But they'll be great. I just don't know if they're'll
• 23:56
  Speaker 3: be set for many more of the titles.
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: One of that group, one more than they had with
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: Kevin Durant, George continuing, yeah.
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, and I and uh, Jacob is spot on.
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: I mean, sta my god, averaging thirty points a game
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: practically this season. Obviously he's quite a bit more talented
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: than chet Holmgrum, but you know, chet you know where
• 24:23
  Speaker 2: there's fifteen points a game and was a very very
• 24:27
  Speaker 2: influential part of that Oklahoma City Thunder run to the championship.
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: But I agree, I mean, you know, you're comparing, you know,
• 24:37
  Speaker 2: two guys here of different abilities, obviously in different quality characteristics,
• 24:44
  Speaker 2: And I agree, I mean I have seen this two before.
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: Like you said that owners, once they get that first championship,
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: they obviously they hope for more. I mean, but they
• 24:55
  Speaker 2: are sometimes a little bit more generous, and you know,
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: I want to make sure these guys are signed, locked
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: in for X amount of years. It happens all around us,
• 25:04
  Speaker 2: and the NBA is no different. I mean, obviously every
• 25:07
  Speaker 2: team's got it set of you know, must have players,
• 25:11
  Speaker 2: But there's no arguing with the fact that the thunder
• 25:15
  Speaker 2: have a bright future and it was a great, great series.
• 25:19
  Speaker 2: It was a great run this year by Indiana and
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: to a lesser extent, the Knicks. But there's gonna be
• 25:26
  Speaker 2: There's gonna be a lot of players, not just these
• 25:29
  Speaker 2: two that want their great salary increases. So it's not
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: gonna just be these guys. But again, Sga is unbelievable.
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: I mean, this guy's a superstar, no question about it. Chat.
• 25:43
  Speaker 2: I really haven't followed much of Chet's career too much,
• 25:46
  Speaker 2: but again, he was an integral part of this championship season.
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: We know that, you know, yeah, I know that. So
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: the reality of the situation is at Sam Prince, he's
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: done a good job with that team, he really had.
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: And I'm take up on this one. I understand giving
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: Shade the cash, and he could even even have more
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: money if he had he gone next a year at
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: the original figure that I just sent out there for
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: In that being the three hundred and eighty million bucks,
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: but he also realizes he wants to win championships there
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: as well. In Oklahoma, City's a small market, so a
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: petitive that they lock up a lot of their players
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: over a sustainable period of time so that they can
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: keep it rolling. So I see both sides with Chet.
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: Because of the injury the first year, they think fits
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: a little bit of a stretch what they want to
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: keep their contact. I totally get it, all right, can't
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: to go ahead.
• 26:39
  Speaker 6: Chet is twenty three years old. He was the number
• 26:43
  Speaker 6: two selection in the twenty twenty two draft. He suffered
• 26:46
  Speaker 6: the second major injury of his NBA career after he
• 26:50
  Speaker 6: broke his pelvis in early November. He also missed his
• 26:54
  Speaker 6: entire rookie season due to a laguermentier in his right foot.
• 26:59
  Speaker 6: He missed time because.
• 27:00
  Speaker 5: Of a hip injury already.
• 27:03
  Speaker 6: And I mean he's seven foot one center. Yes, he
• 27:10
  Speaker 6: has done some amazing things, but that's a lot of
• 27:14
  Speaker 6: money for someone. I mean, he blocked eleven shots in
• 27:17
  Speaker 6: the Finals alone, including five in Game seven, the most
• 27:22
  Speaker 6: by any player in an NBA Finals Game seven since
• 27:26
  Speaker 6: blocks became official in nineteen seventy four. He's one of
• 27:30
  Speaker 6: just three players all time with one hundred and fifty
• 27:33
  Speaker 6: made three pointers and two hundred and fifty blocks through
• 27:37
  Speaker 6: the first two seasons.
• 27:41
  Speaker 4: So I'm sorry, go ahead, no, go ahead, go ahead cha.
• 27:45
  Speaker 4: You know the thing.
• 27:45
  Speaker 3: About that, this is why I don't like to have
• 27:48
  Speaker 3: no role playing anymore, because there's not roles in the NBA.
• 27:51
  Speaker 3: Why I don't like to have to no role play
• 27:52
  Speaker 3: because if he got himself hurt again.
• 27:54
  Speaker 4: You can make him into the mark Eaton.
• 27:56
  Speaker 3: You can just move right under the basket and the
• 27:58
  Speaker 3: mark because he can block shot and he's really, really,
• 28:02
  Speaker 3: really good at He had like three or four game
• 28:03
  Speaker 3: this year, and and I'm like, that's what you If
• 28:08
  Speaker 3: he would hurt himself and he slowed down for that,
• 28:12
  Speaker 3: with his with his ability to be able to block
• 28:14
  Speaker 3: shots and put that defense, you could have just made.
• 28:17
  Speaker 3: But we have no role players anymore, and they and
• 28:20
  Speaker 3: the coaches don't put the coach a role And that's
• 28:22
  Speaker 3: what I don't like.
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah, good point to the way around. Yeah.
• 28:28
  Speaker 6: He contested ninety three percent of opponents' shot attempts as
• 28:33
  Speaker 6: the closest defender, the second highest rate in the league
• 28:37
  Speaker 6: since the start of last season, and led the NBA
• 28:40
  Speaker 6: and field goal percentages allowed on layups and dunks last
• 28:44
  Speaker 6: season among players to contest one hundred plus shots or more.
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: Well, well, all the numbers you're reading on Candy, the
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: biggest trick is keep his kid on the floor. He
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: bort the money. If he isn't, then those stats don't
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: lean off a lot going in to the ability to
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: defend their title. All right, non sports topics of the night.
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: I know we like to go ahead and get to those.
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: So we're going back to the Netherlands, Candy, I know,
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: I know that place all too well. In the Netherlands,
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: employee can be answered up to two years while we're
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: receiving seventy percent of their salary as sick pay. Oh
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: my god, can you imagine that they had that in
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: the United States? My goodness, seventy percent? Really seriously, really,
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: and now that we have somebody that's in the financial business. Okay,
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: The US Treasury Department will officially end the penny production
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: at twenty twenty six. The penny production at twenty twenty
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: serres kind of are we gonna replace them with anything? Candy?
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: What do you think? Can you imagine the penny not
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: being there? Who would they use, so they gotta route
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: up these numbers. I don't even know. I'm lost. Start
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: with the nether lens of first, one little thing about
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: the Netherlands I was impressed about because I couldn't believe
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: how many bicycles that they were riding out there, and well,
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: how many bicycles About a million bicycles run a candy
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: you remember.
• 30:04
  Speaker 5: That there was, Yeah, it was almost more bicycles than
• 30:07
  Speaker 5: they had people.
• 30:08
  Speaker 2: It was.
• 30:08
  Speaker 6: It was unbelievable how many bicycles. And that's how they
• 30:12
  Speaker 6: get around that and boat because there's so many canals
• 30:16
  Speaker 6: over in the Netherlands.
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: But now back to the financial question about the penny,
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: do you have an answer for that one?
• 30:23
  Speaker 6: Wait a minute, Can I talk a little bit about
• 30:26
  Speaker 6: the actual sick pay and employees are their employees In
• 30:30
  Speaker 6: the Netherlands, employees are entitled to up to two years
• 30:34
  Speaker 6: of sickly with a minimum of seventy percent of their salary.
• 30:38
  Speaker 6: Employers are obligated to continue paying wages during this period,
• 30:42
  Speaker 6: with many companies opting to pay one hundred percent of
• 30:45
  Speaker 6: their salary in the first year. This system aims to
• 30:48
  Speaker 6: support employees well being in recovery while ensuring that they
• 30:53
  Speaker 6: have time to reintegrate into the workforce. O. You know,
• 31:00
  Speaker 6: that is a huge benefit for them. Every country is
• 31:06
  Speaker 6: different and so you have to take the good and
• 31:10
  Speaker 6: the bad. And when you're comparing apples to oranges, you
• 31:14
  Speaker 6: got to compare apples to apples, and not just but
• 31:18
  Speaker 6: kudos to them. And as far as the penny is concerned,
• 31:23
  Speaker 6: we all know that there are how many places that
• 31:27
  Speaker 6: are cashless society already. You go to stadiums and it's cashless,
• 31:34
  Speaker 6: So the penny is useless in a cast cashless society.
• 31:38
  Speaker 5: You see pennies being thrown all over.
• 31:41
  Speaker 6: You see them, you know, you walk through how many
• 31:43
  Speaker 6: parking lots and you'll see a penny here or a
• 31:45
  Speaker 6: penny there, And actually it costs the government more to
• 31:51
  Speaker 6: make a penny than a penny is actually worth.
• 31:54
  Speaker 5: So do I do I understand it? Yes? Do I
• 31:57
  Speaker 5: see the nickel coming soon down the repace?
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: Yes? Well we have the right person on the show
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: over there. Yeah. As far as the Netherlens is concerned,
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: that was pretty interesting to sell the bicycles running around
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: As far as the pennything, and I couldn't give an
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: answer anywhere close to candy. So I'll say my voice
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: when I need it, probably for the next topic. But
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: she's right. The cash list places, certainly the gate, the
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: needs and penny area chores.
• 32:23
  Speaker 2: Go ahead. Well, I'm glad to hear that you guys
• 32:26
  Speaker 2: had a nice time there, you know, the Europeans. Yeah,
• 32:30
  Speaker 2: it's a different type style for a lot of people,
• 32:33
  Speaker 2: a lot of countries that is. I remember one of
• 32:36
  Speaker 2: my one of my brother in law brothers in law, Phil,
• 32:40
  Speaker 2: he went there and he told me how clean it
• 32:42
  Speaker 2: was in Europe, how clean it was in Scandinavia. And
• 32:46
  Speaker 2: he says, man, I come home and I see this,
• 32:49
  Speaker 2: and the streets are dirty here in Metro Detroit. Blah
• 32:52
  Speaker 2: blah blah. But the fact of the matter is is
• 32:56
  Speaker 2: they do have a different respect for their environment. They
• 32:58
  Speaker 2: have due respect for their proper pretty whatever. And like
• 33:01
  Speaker 2: you said, they're cutting back on emissions, they're cutting back
• 33:04
  Speaker 2: on all the cars there. Some of these countries are
• 33:07
  Speaker 2: very small, as we know, and the Netherlands included, So
• 33:12
  Speaker 2: it's interesting to hear that from you guys. You know
• 33:14
  Speaker 2: that the bicycle is one of the most favored forms
• 33:19
  Speaker 2: of transportation, and I think we're spoiled in America. We're spoiled.
• 33:23
  Speaker 2: Everybody wants to get out and run and get a
• 33:25
  Speaker 2: new car right when they are able to drive. Some people,
• 33:30
  Speaker 2: some people wait a little longer. Some of them get
• 33:32
  Speaker 2: them as gifts. But to see that, and you saw
• 33:35
  Speaker 2: it firsthand, I like that, I do. And that sounds
• 33:39
  Speaker 2: like a really beautiful country, the Dutch, the Netherlands, as
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: far as the penny goes. Yeah, and Candy, you alluded
• 33:48
  Speaker 2: to it right at the end of your statement that
• 33:50
  Speaker 2: the nickel is costing us even more than the money
• 33:54
  Speaker 2: we lose on the penny in manufacturing the penny. So
• 33:59
  Speaker 2: whether it's Trump or whoever is the president, whoever's gonna
• 34:02
  Speaker 2: put their eyes on the next coin to go. The
• 34:05
  Speaker 2: speculation is that it will be the nickel. But the penny. Yeah,
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: you know, and you're right you said about the parking lot,
• 34:11
  Speaker 2: you know, and you see a shiny penny, they're supposed
• 34:13
  Speaker 2: to pick it up for good luck. That's an old
• 34:16
  Speaker 2: wise tale, you know. Pick that penny out, put it away,
• 34:19
  Speaker 2: stick it somewhere in your pocket and keep it. That's
• 34:21
  Speaker 2: that your good luck charm. You hear all kinds of
• 34:23
  Speaker 2: things like that. I'm not too thrilled about it going,
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: but I can understand it's time has run its course.
• 34:29
  Speaker 2: It really has.
• 34:31
  Speaker 3: Yeah, hey, Jacob, Well, for one thing, if you want
• 34:35
  Speaker 3: to be able to use something for pennies over the time,
• 34:38
  Speaker 3: you can get a bunch of rolls of pennies and
• 34:39
  Speaker 3: hoard them and they need to use them for weapons.
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: Put but knuckles.
• 34:49
  Speaker 3: Here's the deal. Also, it wouldn't do. You want to
• 34:53
  Speaker 3: know why it works in the Netherlands and it doesn't work,
• 34:55
  Speaker 3: and we're not gonna I mean, I'm not gonna go
• 34:57
  Speaker 3: into politics and I'm going to go in a common
• 34:59
  Speaker 3: sense thing when it comes the humans. You want to
• 35:01
  Speaker 3: know why it would work in the United States that
• 35:03
  Speaker 3: will work in the Netherlands as far as with the
• 35:06
  Speaker 3: two years and all that kind of uff, because here's
• 35:08
  Speaker 3: the thing with it to the because in the Netherlands,
• 35:13
  Speaker 3: how big are there like in Europe for instance, how
• 35:15
  Speaker 3: big are their flats? How what do they own? Not
• 35:20
  Speaker 3: they are in comparison to us, they're a minimalist country.
• 35:24
  Speaker 3: They're whatever you can be able to do two years.
• 35:27
  Speaker 3: And you ought to know what they're gonna do for
• 35:29
  Speaker 3: those two years for their recovery and doing stuff that
• 35:31
  Speaker 3: they're gonna go to museums. They're gonna go hike, they're
• 35:36
  Speaker 3: gonna do the bicycle as you will. To be able
• 35:39
  Speaker 3: to do stuff like that, they don't. They buy what
• 35:41
  Speaker 3: they do need, their food, their everything. That's all stuff
• 35:46
  Speaker 3: like that. You do this in the United States, and
• 35:48
  Speaker 3: you're gonna get a bunch of lazy people that buy
• 35:51
  Speaker 3: bye bye bye bye. Especially if you said cars, which
• 35:55
  Speaker 3: depreciates the menu. You go off the lot and it's
• 35:59
  Speaker 3: like and the biggest thing about and everything that you
• 36:02
  Speaker 3: buy will appreciate the man you take out of a package.
• 36:04
  Speaker 3: You go off with a lot. That's what the Americans do,
• 36:06
  Speaker 3: and then they throw away the trash. So you couldn't
• 36:10
  Speaker 3: do that here in the United States because.
• 36:11
  Speaker 4: People are too spoiled.
• 36:13
  Speaker 3: If you made the United States like Europe, it's already
• 36:17
  Speaker 3: way too big for that. And the people and a
• 36:20
  Speaker 3: bunch of generations of people that just get things all
• 36:23
  Speaker 3: the time.
• 36:24
  Speaker 4: Look at look at just a I'm trying to think
• 36:30
  Speaker 4: a just.
• 36:30
  Speaker 3: Like any coffee shop. Look at the it's not just
• 36:33
  Speaker 3: a coffee shop. Look at the sandwiches. Look at everything
• 36:36
  Speaker 3: you get. Everything is piles on the I mean the McDonald's,
• 36:42
  Speaker 3: the Big Mac, every everything, the extra everything's extra in America.
• 36:47
  Speaker 3: It's like go to Europe. You go to Europe, you
• 36:51
  Speaker 3: go to London and stuff. You can't get ice in
• 36:53
  Speaker 3: your drink. They don't use that kind of thing, that
• 36:57
  Speaker 3: kind of water. It's like here we loaded. I don't
• 37:00
  Speaker 3: like ice personally, but a lot of people do. It's
• 37:03
  Speaker 3: a different world in that type. So it works there
• 37:07
  Speaker 3: because the people have the minest to.
• 37:09
  Speaker 4: Make it work.
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: You know. The interesting and part of what everybody says
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: here talk about carts appreciate. I don't know how much
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: a bicycle to it would appreciate out there. That's curious
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: of the matter. Yeah, well I will dog matter. We
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: have a station break ahead.
• 37:24

• 38:41
  Speaker 5: Back to you, Scott.
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: All right, two more tops get to tonight. Deon Sanders
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: get this. We talked about them yesterday on Inside the
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: Fiction mentioned a little bit of a dating history and
• 38:54
  Speaker 1: that says makes a big league debut on May nineteen
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: eighty nine with a New York eight. The later that
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: year made his NFL debut, kicking off an incredible two
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: sport career. So what are your thoughts, Candy about Deona
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: Sanders a two ford athlete. Well, we see what he's
• 39:10
  Speaker 1: trying to do with Colorado, but let's just go back
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: in time. Fact that he played for the Yankees and
• 39:14
  Speaker 1: he fact that they played football.
• 39:18
  Speaker 5: You know, there's a there's.
• 39:18
  Speaker 6: Only a handful of people that had actually tried playing
• 39:23
  Speaker 6: multiple sports. I think it honestly is better for their career.
• 39:30
  Speaker 6: I've been one of those that have said that kids
• 39:34
  Speaker 6: should not be.
• 39:37
  Speaker 5: Focused only on one.
• 39:38
  Speaker 6: Sport, that it helps to develop different muscles. You use
• 39:42
  Speaker 6: different muscles, you don't strain certain muscles as much because
• 39:46
  Speaker 6: you're constantly only doing one motion, whether it be a picture.
• 39:51
  Speaker 6: I mean, you look at you look at the pictures
• 39:53
  Speaker 6: these days, and we're talking about they're already having Tommy
• 39:55
  Speaker 6: John surgery. Uri Prez his rookie season and he went
• 40:00
  Speaker 6: down already with And I think a lot of it
• 40:03
  Speaker 6: has to do with the main focus of as parents
• 40:10
  Speaker 6: when their kids are starting to grow up and they
• 40:12
  Speaker 6: start to decide, you know, I love baseball, and then
• 40:16
  Speaker 6: they only play baseball and they don't play some of
• 40:18
  Speaker 6: these other sports. They're not using all of their different muscles,
• 40:23
  Speaker 6: and they're constantly using the same muscles because they're constantly
• 40:27
  Speaker 6: practicing the same sport over and over and over again.
• 40:31
  Speaker 6: I think that's leading up to some of the injuries.
• 40:33
  Speaker 6: So Dion was good for him that he was a
• 40:38
  Speaker 6: multi sport and he could make it in the multi sports.
• 40:40
  Speaker 6: There's only been a handful of people that have done him.
• 40:43
  Speaker 5: He did it.
• 40:46
  Speaker 6: Oh, I'm going to try and think of some of
• 40:48
  Speaker 6: the other ones that have done it.
• 40:51
  Speaker 1: Well, okay, okay, I mean well the only the other
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: ones that did it. I thought it was good at
• 40:58
  Speaker 1: it with Bo Jackson. Oh yeah, yeah, Jackson to me,
• 41:02
  Speaker 1: and a lot of the good ones that made it. Unfortunately,
• 41:04
  Speaker 1: those two they didn't. They didn't. They weren't able to
• 41:08
  Speaker 1: play both to them for a long time. Ultimately, another
• 41:10
  Speaker 1: one that actually showed bay ball over football is Kirk
• 41:13
  Speaker 1: Gibson of the Tigers. So those are a few of
• 41:17
  Speaker 1: the teams that stand out. Kurt Gibson obviously was a
• 41:20
  Speaker 1: wide receiver I believe for Michigan State. Notted to play
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: with the Tigers, you know, so all much longer his
• 41:24
  Speaker 1: baseball career ended. So that's a good point in Indiano
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: where you were leading to it. The point is that
• 41:29
  Speaker 1: Dion Sanders, to me, of all the met people I mentioned,
• 41:32
  Speaker 1: I think was the best athlete of the group because
• 41:34
  Speaker 1: he was fast is what he was. And when you
• 41:36
  Speaker 1: play the quarnerback position and you could go out there
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: and play baseball gave him. John Elway, believe it or not,
• 41:44
  Speaker 1: was prepared to do it too, but he used at
• 41:46
  Speaker 1: his leverage to go ahead and get out of Baltimore
• 41:49
  Speaker 1: so that he could play with Dever, but he used
• 41:51
  Speaker 1: the Yankee for a period of time as well. So
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: go ahead, George.
• 41:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah. And the other one is the local guy, Rick
• 41:58
  Speaker 2: Leech University of Quarterback and then he played baseball. Remember
• 42:03
  Speaker 2: Scott in the in the in the in the American
• 42:06
  Speaker 2: League for a while. Yeah. But when you look at
• 42:09
  Speaker 2: the total picture here, I mean prime time did it
• 42:12
  Speaker 2: and he listened. You know, you just look at this.
• 42:15
  Speaker 2: Fourteen NFL seasons, you know, won two Super Bowls. He
• 42:19
  Speaker 2: played for Atlanta, San Francisco, Dallas, Washington, Baltimore and then
• 42:24
  Speaker 2: Major League Baseball, as you mentioned, the Yankees and the Braves,
• 42:27
  Speaker 2: the Reds, some great franchises, San Francisco Giants.
• 42:30
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 42:31
  Speaker 2: He did get to one World Series in ninety two,
• 42:34
  Speaker 2: but they didn't win it. But yeah, this is he,
• 42:38
  Speaker 2: you know, talk about a throwback player that that was
• 42:41
  Speaker 2: so talented. He he was, he really was. And I
• 42:45
  Speaker 2: know that his career in both sports was was off
• 42:49
  Speaker 2: the charge. As far as I'm concerned. He's not a
• 42:52
  Speaker 2: superstar in both sports, but boil Boy, he contributed mightily
• 42:55
  Speaker 2: to his teams. He really did. I've always admired him
• 42:58
  Speaker 2: and being able to do the over the course of
• 43:01
  Speaker 2: several seasons is quite remarkable, And like you said, it's
• 43:05
  Speaker 2: not too often that this happens. Oh, and I kind
• 43:08
  Speaker 2: of do an honorary mention Jacob jacob'donald, NBA referee and
• 43:13
  Speaker 2: American League umpire.
• 43:17
  Speaker 1: O'donald mentioned out of that one because I was talking
• 43:21
  Speaker 1: about an athlete, not an umpire. Oh okay, okay, yeah,
• 43:24
  Speaker 1: that's sorry. You put it up there. Now you have
• 43:26
  Speaker 1: to figure out what the hashtag is kidding.
• 43:31
  Speaker 2: But yeah, yeah, lots of admiration for me on what's
• 43:35
  Speaker 2: been said about his careers.
• 43:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I thought about Ripley too, but I think I
• 43:39
  Speaker 1: have one for you.
• 43:41
  Speaker 2: Thank you.
• 43:42
  Speaker 1: I who you come up with him? Forty six years?
• 43:46
  Speaker 1: Does that after a while? Okay?
• 43:50
  Speaker 3: Bo Jackson himself said that you couldn't do the two
• 43:53
  Speaker 3: sport athlete anymore because there's too much competition too sports.
• 43:57
  Speaker 3: You can be benched on two sports right becaus of
• 44:00
  Speaker 3: everybody else.
• 44:00
  Speaker 4: It's the unfortunate part.
• 44:02
  Speaker 3: But but the biggest thing with it was I always
• 44:06
  Speaker 3: believe that with with the Falcons getting Dion Sanders by itself,
• 44:13
  Speaker 3: knowing that the Braves eventually got Dion and everything right,
• 44:17
  Speaker 3: the city of Atlanta can find more ways to screw
• 44:20
  Speaker 3: up the most perfect golden dumb the goose you could
• 44:23
  Speaker 3: ever see in your darma.
• 44:25
  Speaker 1: Really, oh my god, like.
• 44:29
  Speaker 3: If they would have just all they've had to do
• 44:33
  Speaker 3: is build around that. And he stays there and he
• 44:37
  Speaker 3: he enters in Michael Vick. Now imagine that part the
• 44:43
  Speaker 3: last of Deayon Sanders at the beginning of Michael Vick.
• 44:46
  Speaker 3: And that's the point I make, is that the Falcons
• 44:50
  Speaker 3: can mess up a I mean, they.
• 44:52
  Speaker 4: Can mess up the biggest golden goose alive.
• 44:54
  Speaker 1: They really do.
• 44:55
  Speaker 3: And then it's and in truth, it should if they're
• 44:58
  Speaker 3: going to do the two sports, that should have been
• 45:00
  Speaker 3: since the minute he went into the brakes, he should
• 45:03
  Speaker 3: have been both spots for good. Everybody knew he wanted money,
• 45:07
  Speaker 3: everybody knew what primetime was, but.
• 45:12
  Speaker 2: I maybe it was.
• 45:13
  Speaker 4: Because the city wasn't as big then.
• 45:15
  Speaker 3: Now it is built for something like this, just to
• 45:18
  Speaker 3: be honest, it's built for this this kind of world.
• 45:22
  Speaker 3: Now the way Atlanta is, But you could have built
• 45:25
  Speaker 3: it faster with something like that, especially the nineteen ninety
• 45:28
  Speaker 3: one Falcons and the way that they were. It's like
• 45:30
  Speaker 3: and the kind of and the potential star power of
• 45:33
  Speaker 3: that team, and I mean they they were like Alan
• 45:36
  Speaker 3: iverson of their day, the way they changed things, and
• 45:40
  Speaker 3: it's just like and then they and it was dead
• 45:42
  Speaker 3: in two years.
• 45:44
  Speaker 4: And it's like.
• 45:45
  Speaker 3: Atlanta just keeps They've kept doing it. They keep doing it.
• 45:50
  Speaker 3: And they could have they could have had Don for
• 45:53
  Speaker 3: a lifetime.
• 45:54
  Speaker 4: Just all they had to do.
• 45:56
  Speaker 3: Is pay.
• 45:58
  Speaker 1: Okay, all right, and guess what you want, Candy.
• 46:03
  Speaker 6: So I want to just add, yes, we talked about
• 46:08
  Speaker 6: Bo Jackson. The one thing Dion Sanders did. The reason
• 46:12
  Speaker 6: why he was so unique is because he played for
• 46:15
  Speaker 6: both NFL and MLB simultaneously and even playing in both
• 46:22
  Speaker 6: leagues on the same day. Now, there's a couple other
• 46:25
  Speaker 6: names that I'm gonna throw out there that you can
• 46:27
  Speaker 6: hashtag mister Scott.
• 46:30
  Speaker 5: One being Brian Jordan.
• 46:31
  Speaker 6: He had a successful career both playing baseball and football.
• 46:37
  Speaker 6: Dave Winfield played both basketball and baseball. He was drafted
• 46:42
  Speaker 6: into the n B A a B.
• 46:44
  Speaker 5: A MLB and NFL.
• 46:49
  Speaker 6: Danny Ainge played professional baseball also while having a distinguished
• 46:55
  Speaker 6: NBA career. We all know Jim Thorpe also played professional
• 47:01
  Speaker 6: baseball alongside he did track and field and football as well.
• 47:06
  Speaker 6: Michael Jordan obviously played baseball and basketball. And we can't
• 47:11
  Speaker 6: forget the latest one. Mister Tim Tebow played NFL and
• 47:17
  Speaker 6: baseball as well.
• 47:19
  Speaker 2: I got one more for you, Dave, Dave de Buscher,
• 47:24

• 47:28
  Speaker 2: White Sox, I believe, and then played for the Pistons

• 48:55
  Speaker 1: gonna mention is Michael Kelly accept the same role as
• 48:59
  Speaker 1: athletics right there at the US Naval Academy. Did a
• 49:02
  Speaker 1: great job, believe in the us f pole. So those
• 49:04
  Speaker 1: are my two I prefer Mike Town. What about you, Jacob.
• 49:09
  Speaker 3: Well, let's see, I'm here in Atlanta right now. They're
• 49:13
  Speaker 3: already talking about selling off with the Battle with the
• 49:18
  Speaker 3: Braids at this point in time, already, which it's unbelievable
• 49:21
  Speaker 3: searing how many division titles they've had, you know, and
• 49:25
  Speaker 3: all that kind of stuff and the struggles that they've
• 49:27
  Speaker 3: had right there, and I'm just like, see, I was
• 49:32
  Speaker 3: joking with my nephew that they were going to trade
• 49:34
  Speaker 3: off Counya because I was just thinking of a distraction thing.
• 49:39
  Speaker 3: But they might very well do it. They might very
• 49:42
  Speaker 3: well do it. And it's like they're gonna send themselves
• 49:43
  Speaker 3: for years and and then you can lose, and then
• 49:46
  Speaker 3: you can lose Snicker, which he's been with the it's
• 49:50
  Speaker 3: not just that the brains.
• 49:52
  Speaker 1: He's been with the.
• 49:53
  Speaker 3: Organization all of life. So it's gonna be something completely different.
• 49:57
  Speaker 3: So it's interesting to see that they're probably gonna have
• 49:59
  Speaker 3: a set win year. I would never have believed it's
• 50:02
  Speaker 3: started this year.
• 50:05
  Speaker 1: George.
• 50:07
  Speaker 2: Well, now, there's quite a few things in Detroit going on,
• 50:10
  Speaker 2: I guess, but one of the ones that is rather
• 50:13
  Speaker 2: interesting is you might have heard, of course that the
• 50:16
  Speaker 2: WNBA is expanding and Detroit is getting a team again.
• 50:20
  Speaker 2: And one of the sites that they're considering to build
• 50:23
  Speaker 2: their practice facility in Detroit is the old former Uniroyal
• 50:30
  Speaker 2: Tire Company site, which if any of you remember in Detroit,
• 50:34
  Speaker 2: there's a bridge that goes to an island called Belle
• 50:37
  Speaker 2: Isle and right near that bridge, on a street called
• 50:40
  Speaker 2: Jefferson is this prime property. And believe it or not,
• 50:45
  Speaker 2: this property once once the city was told Jerome Bettis
• 50:50
  Speaker 2: was going to come back and build sky scrapers and
• 50:55
  Speaker 2: housing units and department towers on this property. Well it
• 50:59
  Speaker 2: never happened. So if mister Gores and and all the investors,
• 51:04
  Speaker 2: including Sheila Fordham and all the other investors in this project,
• 51:11
  Speaker 2: you know, approve of this, it would be a wonderful
• 51:14
  Speaker 2: addition to Detroit's waterfront by the Detroit River and by
• 51:18
  Speaker 2: the city He's uh famed island of Belle Isle. Is
• 51:22
  Speaker 2: to put this practice facility on the on the site
• 51:25
  Speaker 2: that they're thinking about. The other thing is kind of
• 51:28
  Speaker 2: a sad note. And and and I know Scott will
• 51:31
  Speaker 2: remember this. We used to every summer have a boat
• 51:34
  Speaker 2: race in Detroit and these boats were fantastic. These were
• 51:38
  Speaker 2: called hydroplanes, unlimited hydro planes. And yet on a down note,
• 51:44
  Speaker 2: another summer is coming and going and there will be
• 51:48
  Speaker 2: no racing on the Detroit River, which was one of
• 51:51
  Speaker 2: the toughest and most exciting river courses for these powerful
• 51:55
  Speaker 2: boats called the unlimited hydro planes, Miss Miss Budwise, Sir,
• 52:00
  Speaker 2: and and so many other great boats. There usually were
• 52:04
  Speaker 2: about ten, ten or twelve of them at the most times.
• 52:08
  Speaker 2: But Detroit again cannot get the money, they can't get
• 52:11
  Speaker 2: the sponsorship. Nobody wants to come forward to bring back
• 52:14
  Speaker 2: the gold Cup. It's called the Gold Cup of hydroplane
• 52:18
  Speaker 2: racing in Detroit. And that's that's a downer for me
• 52:21
  Speaker 2: because there used to be a summer tradition to have
• 52:25
  Speaker 2: those races right near the same area I'm talking about
• 52:27
  Speaker 2: Belle Isle and East Jefferson.
• 52:30
  Speaker 1: Well, when you and I worked at the wh and
• 52:32
  Speaker 1: Deep Jenna with on as a guest until he was
• 52:34
  Speaker 1: something that was killed, So.
• 52:38
  Speaker 2: I remember that. Yes, they were.
• 52:40
  Speaker 1: Big back then, Jim Hendrick, I think past. Yeah, Sanmerson
• 52:45
  Speaker 1: had gotten to that part. Yet, all right, can they
• 52:46
  Speaker 1: give me those stop working on your countertowns?
• 52:51
  Speaker 6: So well, the mighty Brewers with their whole payroll of
• 53:00
  Speaker 6: one hundred and eight million dollars swept swept the LA
• 53:07
  Speaker 6: Dodgers that have a payroll of three hundred and forty
• 53:11
  Speaker 6: million dollars.
• 53:13
  Speaker 7: Really a small market team taking down such a big
• 53:19
  Speaker 7: market and big payroll.
• 53:31
  Speaker 5: Kudos to the Brewers.
• 53:33
  Speaker 6: Now, as for the Milwaukee Bucks, I'm not exactly sure
• 53:36
  Speaker 6: what you're doing in this offseason. All I'm gonna say
• 53:41
  Speaker 6: is I hope you're not angering Giannis too much because
• 53:45
  Speaker 6: he has been faithful to Milwaukee. Milwaukee has been faithful
• 53:49
  Speaker 6: to him. But and here's where I'm gonna say, here's
• 53:55
  Speaker 6: one of those that he hasn't been vocal about coming
• 54:01
  Speaker 6: out and saying, oh I need him to stay on
• 54:03
  Speaker 6: the team, and him to stay on the team, and
• 54:05
  Speaker 6: that like some of the other superstars. But in the
• 54:09
  Speaker 6: same breath, Milwaukee, he is the face of your franchise
• 54:15
  Speaker 6: and you need to make sure you keep him happy.
• 54:18
  Speaker 1: However, that is okay, all right, great point, totally wrong.
• 54:24
  Speaker 1: Final topic of the night. Indiana Pacers assistant coach Jenny
• 54:28
  Speaker 1: Boucek is only one of fifteen women coach again on
• 54:32
  Speaker 1: an NBA team coach in the NBA Finals and raising
• 54:36
  Speaker 1: her daughter as a single mom. That's impressive, isn't it, Candy?
• 54:40
  Speaker 5: That is very impressive.
• 54:42
  Speaker 6: I'm just waiting for the first female NBA head coach
• 54:48
  Speaker 6: to be named.
• 54:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah, she thought that was gonna be Becky Hammond, but
• 54:53
  Speaker 1: I thought it would be all right, Jacob with your thoughts.
• 54:56
  Speaker 4: This is the thing.
• 54:57
  Speaker 3: We've got this right now, I would say about Becky Hammond. Also,
• 54:59
  Speaker 3: like here's an other thing too. Quit going after and
• 55:02
  Speaker 3: I'm saying this quick, going after Don Staley. She coaches college.
• 55:06
  Speaker 3: She coaches college. She has not coached men. I mean,
• 55:09
  Speaker 3: quit doing this based off of an idea or we
• 55:12
  Speaker 3: have to be double why it's what's gonna happen is
• 55:15
  Speaker 3: like it's gonna be like the whole kim Ink situation
• 55:17
  Speaker 3: with with the Miami. It's like, you get something along
• 55:21
  Speaker 3: those lines, and you're going to get somebody you get
• 55:24
  Speaker 3: something along those lines. She got them to a playoff.
• 55:26
  Speaker 3: She built it into a playoff. Look what they did
• 55:28
  Speaker 3: with her, and they're going to do the same.
• 55:30
  Speaker 2: Like this.
• 55:31
  Speaker 3: If you're going to get a new NBA head coach
• 55:35
  Speaker 3: for a woman, make it somebody who's actually coached men.
• 55:39
  Speaker 4: Becky Hammon, who what was this like? Jamie Jamie, what
• 55:44
  Speaker 4: the lady the dumb for Indiana. Yeah, yeah, let her
• 55:52
  Speaker 4: be her. Let it be anything.
• 55:54
  Speaker 3: It's like I mean, if it works, it works. They
• 55:57
  Speaker 3: quit going after. They keep talking about, well when you
• 56:00
  Speaker 3: go after Don Santy. No, she's the coach. She has
• 56:04
  Speaker 3: coached the college, and she has coached college women's basketball
• 56:07
  Speaker 3: in the most brilliant manner. But those finals and with
• 56:12
  Speaker 3: those wins and with those everything, do not get that wrong.
• 56:15
  Speaker 3: But she has not coached pro She has not even
• 56:18
  Speaker 3: coached w NBA. She has not coached men. And the
• 56:22
  Speaker 3: ones that we have talked about have And.
• 56:26
  Speaker 4: And there's the thing.
• 56:27
  Speaker 3: If you're in that fraternity or sorority, if we can
• 56:30
  Speaker 3: add to it or whatever we say, if you're in
• 56:35
  Speaker 3: that world, then you're gonna then you're in that thing
• 56:39
  Speaker 3: where they say she's that good.
• 56:41
  Speaker 4: She knows how to coach men, and she knows how
• 56:44
  Speaker 4: to get them, and they listen to her.
• 56:46
  Speaker 3: You that's where I'm saying, right now, get one of
• 56:49
  Speaker 3: them if you're gonna do that. And we said Becky
• 56:52
  Speaker 3: Ham and she she coached the summer league to a title.
• 56:56
  Speaker 3: That so she coached men. And that's the point about it.
• 56:59
  Speaker 3: It's like, go get somebody who's already done it.
• 57:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I thought for sure she had a shot at
• 57:04
  Speaker 1: that San Antonio job. I really do. One other name
• 57:08
  Speaker 1: worth bringing up would be Nancy Liberman too. I think
• 57:10
  Speaker 1: that if there's any person took both sides, it would
• 57:14
  Speaker 1: have been Nancy Leberman. But that's just another name, George.
• 57:17
  Speaker 3: I played with men and the pro and semipro leagues,
• 57:20
  Speaker 3: so she knows how to deal with men too, exactly.
• 57:23
  Speaker 1: That's my point. Thanks for making it for me, Go ahead, George.
• 57:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Nancy Lieberman of course.
• 57:28
  Speaker 1: Uh.
• 57:29
  Speaker 2: At one time she was involved with the Detroit Shock
• 57:31
  Speaker 2: as well, and then, as you guys mentioned, the assistant
• 57:35
  Speaker 2: coach uh with Sacramento Kings. But no, I mean, yeah,
• 57:39
  Speaker 2: Becky is the one that I kind of had my
• 57:41
  Speaker 2: eyes on, you know, and I think she, you know,
• 57:45
  Speaker 2: did a good job in the summer League there, and
• 57:48
  Speaker 2: also she had been working to uh obviously for San Antonio.
• 57:54
  Speaker 2: You know, it's it's an opportunity. The door is open now,
• 57:58
  Speaker 2: not as wide open as some people would hope. But
• 58:02
  Speaker 2: the fact of the matter is is that the Jenny's
• 58:06
  Speaker 2: appearance Boushek as assistant coach of the Pacers is great
• 58:10
  Speaker 2: to see in the NBA finals. Before that, I think
• 58:14
  Speaker 2: she was with Sacramento and also the Dallas Mavericks for
• 58:16
  Speaker 2: a while. You know, it's a great opportunity to see
• 58:21
  Speaker 2: and I really think it will be a little bit
• 58:25
  Speaker 2: more commonplace. We do need to see if they can
• 58:28
  Speaker 2: become a head coach in the NBA, of course, that
• 58:30
  Speaker 2: would be wonderful. And one of the other things, like
• 58:33
  Speaker 2: you just got to slide this in, guys and Candy,
• 58:37
  Speaker 2: that what really bothered me is the fact that the
• 58:39
  Speaker 2: NBA is now have at least a half dozen female officials.
• 58:44
  Speaker 2: Did you, guys know that not single one of them
• 58:47
  Speaker 2: made the playoffs this year? Not a single female referee.
• 58:51
  Speaker 2: And I'm sorry, Silver, that's a bonehead on your part
• 58:55
  Speaker 2: and your officiating staff that you did not see the
• 58:58
  Speaker 2: wise And I'm not saying give her a job, get her,
• 59:03
  Speaker 2: give her a playoff appearance, but the NBA referees. You've
• 59:07
  Speaker 2: done a good job the NBA developing these great women officials,
• 59:11
  Speaker 2: but my god, they couldn't even make the playoffs. That
• 59:15
  Speaker 2: bothered me. But anyways, that's the topic point, George. Assistant
• 59:20
  Speaker 2: coaches and it's great to see the women there.
• 59:24
  Speaker 3: I agree, And George, you brought that up with the officials.
• 59:29
  Speaker 3: This is what I have to say all the time.
• 59:31
  Speaker 3: And Candy's heard me say this before, like that, with
• 59:35
  Speaker 3: all these type of things. A lot of things that
• 59:38
  Speaker 3: they do is a pandering and the boneheaded stupid thing
• 59:42
  Speaker 3: to get people that keep from having the mobs going.
• 59:45
  Speaker 4: And you've heard me say that before.
• 59:46
  Speaker 1: It's not real.
• 59:49
  Speaker 2: This is the thing.
• 59:50
  Speaker 3: If the NBA women officials are that good, you put them.
• 59:54
  Speaker 1: In the playoffs.
• 59:55
  Speaker 3: If people believe that, you put them in the playoffs,
• 59:57
  Speaker 3: If they believed in them, as coach is truly, you
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 3: put them out there. Everybody does this to avoid mobs
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 3: and avoid just to avoid the issue that they have.
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 3: They don't believe in it. They don't believe in it.
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 3: They don't believe in the deal. And it's like I
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 3: think of I think of Bruce arians he was the
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 3: first coach to put women in there, because you know
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 3: what it was. It wasn't a pandering thing, it wasn't
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 3: a thing. It's like she knows her stuff the end,
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 3: and it's like you just and Adam Silver needs to
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 3: be the same. They know their stuff the end. Everything
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 3: the end. There doesn't need to be excuse me, there
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 3: doesn't need to be mob ruled. There doesn't need to
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 3: be anything. We are changed world. Just do it or don't.
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 3: Just don't be a liar about it.
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 1: Well, let me make one point very clear about Jenny Bussey.
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 1: He works with Rick Carlisle. If there's anybody that could
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 1: probably be the mentor of a female coach, Rick Carlisle
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 1: is definitely the type of guy who could do it
• 1:00:59
  Speaker 1: any nearly history by being able to become one of
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 1: just a few coaches and win a championship to sparate teams.
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 1: So Rick Carlisle is a heck of a coach. Albe
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 1: and I know them pass are making the whole show.
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 1: Chances we're not gonna talk about that tonight. But Rick Carlile,
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 1: Jenny Blusset, she she's like best bet to probably get
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 1: one of these jobs if it does come about. We'll
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 1: see how this one plays. And that's really want I
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 1: want to go any clothing thoughts on this before we
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 1: wrap up the show.
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 5: Nope, no, I talked about it.
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 1: Well, we'll go to our last day of break and
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 1: then we'll call it a night. We have a couple
• 1:01:33

  Speaker 3: This is the coach and me. I wish I had
• 1:04:06
  Speaker 3: a chance to coach a kid like this because so
• 1:04:09
  Speaker 3: exciting to watch play and he's got a lot of energy.
• 1:04:14
  Speaker 3: But if I was to have a chance at coaching
• 1:04:17
  Speaker 3: this guy, first thing I'm absolutely going to say is
• 1:04:22
  Speaker 3: conserve the energy. You try to annihilate everything. It is
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 3: your energy, it is your youth, it is all that.
• 1:04:35
  Speaker 3: But here's the issue with this. One of the other
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 3: players from our past that is about to be retired.
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 3: I can tell you that Grigor Dimitrov, he was leading
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 3: two sets to none. Again, you know, they almost have
• 1:04:50
  Speaker 3: an upset. I guess the number one player and then
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 3: his torus.
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 4: Peck while he was up and the other guy.
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 1: And goes on.
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 3: He he used to annihilate every ball, and now he
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 3: has had to get out of He has had to
• 1:05:07
  Speaker 3: withdraw from the last five Grand Slams because of injuries.
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 4: He used to annihilate everything. This is gonna happen to you, Ben.
• 1:05:17
  Speaker 3: This is one of those where I would love to
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 3: be able to get you some top spin. I'd love
• 1:05:21
  Speaker 3: to be able to get you some touch, to be
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 3: able to you know, to use your You have great power,
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 3: and I don't want you to lose the great power,
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 3: but use it to finish game matches, not gonna get
• 1:05:31
  Speaker 3: back and forth over and over and over again and
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 3: annihilate everything because you're gonna get yourself hurt. And that's
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 3: a lot of athletes also, and because then it shows
• 1:05:40
  Speaker 3: the idea of life that we are. Everything is on
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 3: TikTok and everything is on YouTube, and people just want
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 3: the twenty second reels and we have. It is a problem.
• 1:05:55
  Speaker 3: It's like you could if you give yourself more variety,
• 1:05:58
  Speaker 3: you win, but the athletes care or do they want
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 3: to get on reels, and that's where the problem lies.
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 3: And I feel for this because the injuries are going
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 3: to build up on this kid, and I just say,
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 3: I wish I could be able to coach him before
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 3: it's too late, and of course I never will.
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 1: When you get a point, all right, want you everybody
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 1: they hold, yeah.
• 1:06:21
