2:15
Speaker 3: You hello, friends, you have way too much fun with
2:20
Speaker 3: that I do this time a year. Chipau Ur Sports
2:25
Speaker 3: Talk Jason Corney's Jared Hicks in today. If you didn't know,
2:30
Speaker 3: if you've been under a rock and just decided to
2:32
Speaker 3: come out listening to us, it is Master's Thursday, UH
2:36
Speaker 3: an opportunity for us to come on and really play
2:39
Speaker 3: radio today and have a lot of fun with this.
2:41
Speaker 3: Is this is something that that you and I both
2:44
Speaker 3: enjoy getting getting to do especially on this week like this,
2:48
Speaker 3: and I love that you called it like this is
2:49
Speaker 3: the spring sports equinox. There is a fall sports equinox
2:53
Speaker 3: that is equally exciting. But again, NBA season is getting
2:57
Speaker 3: ready to wrap up, what you're about to dive into.
2:59
Speaker 3: The College Basketball Championships just ended. Opening Day was just
3:03
Speaker 3: the other day. Baseball is just now getting started. So
3:06
Speaker 3: if you're in Facebook, get going.
3:09
Speaker 4: I mean, yeah, there's it's a it's a Schmorgesborg of
3:14
Speaker 4: what you could hope for. I mean, uh, we didn't
3:16
Speaker 4: even bring up the fact. You know this weekend you've
3:19
Speaker 4: got A and M and t U in baseball going on,
3:24
Speaker 4: you got Chili Fest, which I know is outside the
3:26
Speaker 4: sports calendar, but uh, dodging of Plinton County sport in
3:33
Speaker 4: and of itself. So I mean lots of stuff going on.
3:37
Speaker 3: So yeah, again this is and less again and the
3:40
Speaker 3: the the the fall sports equinox is obviously football. Haveav
3:43
Speaker 3: you this one unless you and again if you are
3:46
Speaker 3: a sports fan, this is an amazing week. And again
3:48
Speaker 3: being able to look at the the beautiful course that
3:52
Speaker 3: is AUGUSTA National is just wonderful to be able to
3:55
Speaker 3: watch the TV.
3:56
Speaker 4: But let's let's let's dive into the association because we
4:04
Speaker 4: as we as we transition to the playoffs, basically in
4:08
Speaker 4: about five days, we get a totally different season. We
4:13
Speaker 4: get a totally different experience when it comes to basketball,
4:16
Speaker 4: because right now there is just some unwatchable garbage in
4:23
Speaker 4: relation to the teams that are thinking. In fact, what
4:27
Speaker 4: Sacramento did the other night, you got to find the
4:31
Speaker 4: leap out of them for that, because I'm sorry, you
4:35
Speaker 4: are not putting a competitive or even watchable product on
4:40
Speaker 4: the floor when you do something like that.
4:42
Speaker 3: And that's it's it is so bad.
4:45
Speaker 4: I mean to hijack the conversation, but it isn't. It
4:48
Speaker 4: kind of stinks that as we draw to the clothes,
4:52
Speaker 4: what you're having to sit through is just garbage. But
4:56
Speaker 4: you know, in five days it doesn't matter because that's
4:58
Speaker 4: when it actually gets good.
4:59
Speaker 3: And that's the the thing that the NBA and Adam
5:03
Speaker 3: Silver is going to have to figure out because again
5:09
Speaker 3: and the players know that the fans are really starting
5:13
Speaker 3: to pick up on that that with the exception of
5:17
Speaker 3: a couple of marquee matchups during the regular season, the
5:21
Speaker 3: regular season doesn't matter, and that's going to be a problem.
5:25
Speaker 3: Because people are gonna stop putting eyeballs on the television,
5:29
Speaker 3: which goes back into what you and I were just
5:31
Speaker 3: talking about the TV dollars that the NBA require, like
5:34
Speaker 3: looks forward to to pay some of these salaries. And
5:37
Speaker 3: so that's why I know he's trying to Adam Silver,
5:39
Speaker 3: it's trying his hardest to figure out. And that's where
5:43
Speaker 3: and people are now starting to have a fit about
5:45
Speaker 3: the sixty five game.
5:46
Speaker 4: Well, and I'm glad you brought that up too, And again,
5:48
Speaker 4: sixty five game rule. You have to play sixty five games,
5:52
Speaker 4: and you have to play a certain amount in those
5:53
Speaker 4: sixty five games to qualify for all the postseason awards,
5:56
Speaker 4: including All NBA Team and things like that. You're about
6:00
Speaker 4: to have a situation where last year's All NBA team,
6:05
Speaker 4: ten of the fifteen I believe, will not even qualify
6:08
Speaker 4: for this year's All NBA Team because they're not going
6:11
Speaker 4: to meet the sixty five game minimum. And so when
6:14
Speaker 4: the history books are written and you look at the
6:16
Speaker 4: twenty twenty five, twenty twenty six, albeit albeit NBBA teen,
6:21
Speaker 4: you're gonna be like, who are some of these Jabbronis
6:25
Speaker 4: And why isn't like why aren't some of the world
6:30
Speaker 4: champion members on this all NBA's how did they win
6:35
Speaker 4: a championship if they weren't even all And it's going
6:37
Speaker 4: to because of the stupid, stupid rule, which by the way,
6:39
Speaker 4: was collectively bargained.
6:41
Speaker 3: And here's the problem, and I'm glad you said it
6:43
Speaker 3: that way. You know what if all of those guys
6:45
Speaker 3: that are going to be winding about, I don't care,
6:48
Speaker 3: because play the again. And the only thing that I
6:50
Speaker 3: will add and they should have put this in there
6:52
Speaker 3: in that sixty five game rule is the caveat that
6:55
Speaker 3: if you are medically unable to play, which that would
7:00
Speaker 3: that would put Caid Cunningham back in there, that would
7:02
Speaker 3: put that would put Womy if he doesn't play, back
7:06
Speaker 3: in there, but that would put most of the players
7:08
Speaker 3: back eligible, including Luca into some of this discussion that
7:12
Speaker 3: I would be okay with, but a lot of like
7:14
Speaker 3: the other part of like one of the best abilities
7:17
Speaker 3: is availability, and they've started they put this rule in
7:19
Speaker 3: there because guys just weren't playing like they just were not,
7:22
Speaker 3: whether it was by their own admission or by the
7:24
Speaker 3: team keep keeping them out. And that goes back into
7:27
Speaker 3: the unwatchableness of basketball and Adam Silver has to do
7:32
Speaker 3: something to get the players and the team. And again
7:35
Speaker 3: go to what is happening with Giannis and to Tacumpo
7:39
Speaker 3: in Milwaukee. Right now he is screaming to play and
7:43
Speaker 3: the team isn't going to let him.
7:48
Speaker 4: Let's I want to dive into that, but there's so
7:50
Speaker 4: much more I want to dive into. So I want
7:51
Speaker 4: to talk about the Yo, honest thing. From the standpoint this,
7:55
Speaker 4: we saw this coming well before December. Yes, the the
8:00
Speaker 4: feelers and the rumors had already been put out there.
8:03
Speaker 4: He was he was ready to get out because of
8:05
Speaker 4: his obvious Milwaukee was not going to be a contender.
8:08
Speaker 4: This thing dragged out all the way to the trade deadline,
8:12
Speaker 4: and then all of a sudden, it all went away
8:14
Speaker 4: with an announcement from the Milwaukee general general manager. Now
8:22
Speaker 4: he's complaining about he wants to play the team. He's
8:26
Speaker 4: claiming the team won't let him play. There's reports that
8:29
Speaker 4: when he does these three on three practices he's not
8:33
Speaker 4: back up to speed. I mean, whoever, we have both
8:37
Speaker 4: sides arguing and this thing's about to just turn ugly.
8:41
Speaker 4: And the bottom line is he he is obviously going
8:48
Speaker 4: to be a he's a general generational player that if
8:51
Speaker 4: he gets added to a particular squad, yes we'll make
8:54
Speaker 4: them competitive. But he's also at a point in his
8:57
Speaker 4: career where you have to start wondering what is the
8:59
Speaker 4: durability of the soil? And and I hate to say this,
9:05
Speaker 4: or I wanted to bring this up last time, there
9:08
Speaker 4: was a very strange occurrence right there, right after the
9:12
Speaker 4: trade deadline, where it was announced that Jannis and Antatakupo
9:18
Speaker 4: was going to be a spokesperson for Kashi. Now, for
9:22
Speaker 4: those listening who aren't familiar with Kashi is it's one
9:25
Speaker 4: of these prediction markets. So it's not a gambling site.
9:29
Speaker 4: It's these it's these unregulated prediction markets where you can
9:33
Speaker 4: basically bet on just about anything, including will there be
9:37
Speaker 4: a ceasefire? And some people apparently had some foreknowledge on that.
9:42
Speaker 4: But going back to this topic, Yannis being announced as
9:49
Speaker 4: a spokesperson for this site is very interesting because the
9:55
Speaker 4: prediction market just on what he was going to do
9:58
Speaker 4: in free agency rated over twenty three million dollars in
10:03
Speaker 4: revenue for Caushee was the Now, the other part of
10:10
Speaker 4: this is these deals don't happen overnight. They are typically
10:14
Speaker 4: negotiated for weeks, if not a couple months in advance,
10:17
Speaker 4: because you have to you have to go through the agent,
10:19
Speaker 4: you have to go through the manager, and you have
10:21
Speaker 4: to do all the financial terms and all these other things,
10:23
Speaker 4: and so you really have to ask yourself. Did he
10:29
Speaker 4: He obviously went out of Milwaukee, but was there. I'm
10:33
Speaker 4: not accusing him necessarily of anything, but basically he was
10:36
Speaker 4: able to drum up business for this site that he
10:40
Speaker 4: was going to become a spokesperson for. If I'm Adam
10:46
Speaker 4: Silver and some of the ownership, you kind of have
10:49
Speaker 4: to look at these things because this is kind of
10:51
Speaker 4: the world we're getting into now where athletes can kind
10:57
Speaker 4: of manipulate I hate to say this manipulate.
10:59
Speaker 3: For absolutely can and.
11:03
Speaker 4: It's like I say it there that just kind of
11:07
Speaker 4: raised some red flags with me. And then this this
11:09
Speaker 4: whole messy breakup at the end, uh where based you
11:13
Speaker 4: know it's gonna be it's gonna be tough to for
11:17
Speaker 4: for him to go to certain spots where he wants
11:20
Speaker 4: to go because of the available trade capital. That said,
11:24
Speaker 4: teams like New York or Miami may have that they
11:27
Speaker 4: can get that they can trade with Milwaukee because Milwaukee
11:30
Speaker 4: certainly doesn't want to end up on the short end
11:33
Speaker 4: of this. But I mean, you could see a situation
11:35
Speaker 4: where he sits out next year if they don't get
11:38
Speaker 4: a trade done.
11:39
Speaker 3: He's not gonna be on the team next year, like
11:41
Speaker 3: the nobody wants to do that. Unfortunately, Doc Rivers is
11:44
Speaker 3: caught in the middle of it. He's not going to
11:45
Speaker 3: be their coach next year.
11:46
Speaker 4: Like it's which is kind of funny that he gets
11:48
Speaker 4: announced that he's going uh a nominee for the Nate
11:51
Speaker 4: Smith Hall of Game and he's about to be fired.
11:54
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's not gonna be there again. But actually on
11:56
Speaker 3: the court, and I say on the court like yes,
11:59
Speaker 3: waiting in patiently for the playoffs to get here, because again,
12:03
Speaker 3: a lot of the games right now, depending on these
12:06
Speaker 3: late season matchups, are dang near unwatchable depending on the
12:09
Speaker 3: team on the court. And that's why I still and
12:12
Speaker 3: we don't have to go back to it too deeply
12:13
Speaker 3: of I wish there was in addition to the play
12:18
Speaker 3: in tournament, which will be the team seven, eight, nine,
12:20
Speaker 3: and ten, there needs to be a draft lottery tournament
12:25
Speaker 3: that gives these teams some kind of incentive to do
12:28
Speaker 3: something at the end of the year, because you're right,
12:31
Speaker 3: whether it's a team like Sacramento that is obviously tanking,
12:36
Speaker 3: whether it's a team like the Washington Wizards that I mean,
12:40
Speaker 3: any of those bottom teams right now are just awful.
12:44
Speaker 4: Yeah, and it is. And which going back to what
12:47
Speaker 4: you brought up with, Milwaukee doesn't want you, honis to play.
12:50
Speaker 4: The whole reason they want to lose as much as possible.
12:52
Speaker 4: This is last year that they control their draft picks.
12:55
Speaker 4: After this year, it's all dictated by the teams they
12:57
Speaker 4: have previously drafted with. So that's why we bring this
13:00
Speaker 4: up now when we talk about watchability and maybe what
13:05
Speaker 4: we're not watching, I want to talk about Nikolai Jok.
13:13
Speaker 4: I'm going to say something sacrilegious here, but when you
13:16
Speaker 4: start looking at the statistics, we kind of have to
13:18
Speaker 4: have this conversation. Yes, it is well within uh actual
13:26
Speaker 4: same thought to say the following Nikolai Joki might be
13:31
Speaker 4: a better basketball player than Michael Jordan. It is he is.
13:38
Speaker 4: He is doing things nobody has done before. And the
13:43
Speaker 4: thing is no one sees it because he plays for Denver,
13:47
Speaker 4: so he's playing all these West Coast games at night. Uh,
13:51
Speaker 4: I mean, if we're being honest, basketball might be like
13:53
Speaker 4: the fifth or sixth most important thing in his life.
13:55
Speaker 4: He I mean, he does not. He cares little about
13:58
Speaker 4: it at all.
13:59
Speaker 3: But this.
14:01
Speaker 4: He is a three time MVP, and he's actually playing better.
14:05
Speaker 4: He's having a better season this year than he's had
14:08
Speaker 4: in any of his three MVP seasons. And right now
14:10
Speaker 4: I think betting odds is he's third or fourth.
14:13
Speaker 3: Yes, which is unbelievable because I believe last time he
14:16
Speaker 3: is leading the leads and leading the league in rebounds
14:19
Speaker 3: and assists. Yes, and as a center.
14:22
Speaker 4: As a center, let me get a little statistic for you.
14:25
Speaker 4: In the history of the NBA, never has a player
14:29
Speaker 4: who led the league in rebounds one season came back
14:33
Speaker 4: and led the league and assists the following season, and
14:36
Speaker 4: vice versa. No, but he's doing both.
14:39
Speaker 3: Right now that no one has done.
14:42
Speaker 4: Is on a ten game win streak. It is the
14:44
Speaker 4: longest in denverse history, going back to twenty thirteen. I
14:48
Speaker 4: believe in this ten game in this ten game win
14:54
Speaker 4: win streak. For historical context, there have been one point
14:59
Speaker 4: four mill ten game win streaks for NBA players in
15:03
Speaker 4: NBA history. None in one point four million scenarios has
15:09
Speaker 4: a player led in points, rebounds, and assist and he's
15:13
Speaker 4: doing it.
15:14
Speaker 3: He is right now at forty two triple doubles on
15:19
Speaker 3: the season. The only person who have more is Oscar Robertson. Yep,
15:24
Speaker 3: and so he's ted. He's tied with Russell Westbrook right
15:27
Speaker 3: now for the most of the season. Oscar Robertson is
15:29
Speaker 3: the only one that had more in a season. But
15:32
Speaker 3: this is like the on the list I saw it
15:34
Speaker 3: this morning of how many times he's done it in
15:36
Speaker 3: the season. Like it's him and Russell Russell Westbrook that
15:39
Speaker 3: have like just killed it. But like again third straight
15:42
Speaker 3: year he's doing this and.
15:44
Speaker 4: One more points. So when he plays, he's averaging forty
15:48
Speaker 4: points a game and twenty six rebounds. I believe when
15:52
Speaker 4: he goes up against Wimby, who you can make an
15:55
Speaker 4: argument Wimby is one of the most crushing defensive players
15:58
Speaker 4: in the leak. He's still in the three games they
16:02
Speaker 4: play this year or six games, I forget what it is.
16:05
Speaker 3: He's yeah, they're in the same division.
16:06
Speaker 4: Same division. He's so season average forty and twenty six
16:11
Speaker 4: against Wimby forty and twenty. Wimby is not having an
16:15
Speaker 4: effect on his ability whatsoever.
16:18
Speaker 3: Sorry, I'm still laughing it.
16:19
Speaker 4: She's thinking it looks like a giant white loaf of bread.
16:22
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean he is the epitomes.
16:24
Speaker 4: He's European. I mean, there's there's very little When I
16:27
Speaker 4: say attractive, I'm I'm I'm not talking about physical attractiveness.
16:34
Speaker 3: No, you're talking about in terms of what we and
16:36
Speaker 3: I'm going to say this specific, what we in terms
16:39
Speaker 3: of Americans in the sports center age, are used to
16:43
Speaker 3: seeing from a basketball player.
16:45
Speaker 4: Especially a star basketball player. You think Magic Johnson, you
16:49
Speaker 4: think Michael Jordan.
16:50
Speaker 3: You think either either speed or athleticism.
16:55
Speaker 4: You think you think, you think something that sets you
16:57
Speaker 4: apart physically, the physical ability to do something that you
17:02
Speaker 4: don't see everyone else in the league, and especially you
17:06
Speaker 4: don't see guys on you know, random court in a
17:09
Speaker 4: park doing and this oath I'm not trying to be mean,
17:17
Speaker 4: you know, there's no other, I mean, the other way
17:19
Speaker 4: to describe it. But he he may he may end
17:22
Speaker 4: up being the greatest basketball player of all time and
17:25
Speaker 4: kind of like show he Tani, which is just blowing
17:27
Speaker 4: our mind, and what he's able to do right now.
17:29
Speaker 4: We may it may take fifteen or twenty years for
17:32
Speaker 4: us to look back and Reid, were we not paying attention?
17:36
Speaker 3: And that's the sad part, it is not paying attention
17:38
Speaker 3: to what he's been able to do. And again now
17:40
Speaker 3: having the the the Denver Nuggets, and this is where
17:44
Speaker 3: I'm going to finish this and then go into a
17:46
Speaker 3: very sad, sad moment for me of how I'm really
17:52
Speaker 3: empathetic for Lebron James. But he's got the Denver Nuggets
17:54
Speaker 3: on that ten game win streak and now in the
17:57
Speaker 3: and the third position, and if they the San Antonio
18:01
Speaker 3: Spurs and the two three matchup in the second round,
18:04
Speaker 3: and San Antonio as good as they've been and as
18:07
Speaker 3: good as Wimby is, are as young as they are,
18:09
Speaker 3: Like I'm I'm not thinking that these Spurs are going
18:14
Speaker 3: to win that matchup, Like I'm not like there if
18:16
Speaker 3: it was the Lakers, I would.
18:17
Speaker 4: Say, if it's a healthy joker, I don't think they do.
18:20
Speaker 3: And speaking of that, and they are they have only
18:23
Speaker 3: dropped down to the fourth spot. Now the Lakers, who
18:28
Speaker 3: had just powered through to the third spot.
18:31
Speaker 4: Well, I mean we talked about the last time we
18:33
Speaker 4: hear just just the magnificent February into March that they
18:39
Speaker 4: had especially was having but as a team had just
18:42
Speaker 4: been able to put together and all of that just
18:46
Speaker 4: came crashing down.
18:47
Speaker 3: When when Luca goes out with with the hamstring injury,
18:50
Speaker 3: and I going back to that, like, you never I
18:55
Speaker 3: would never want to second guests a coaching decision. You
19:00
Speaker 3: are a player just wanting to play.
19:03
Speaker 4: But he hurt, that was down thirty in the first half,
19:08
Speaker 4: and he.
19:08
Speaker 3: Was already running up lame on that hamstring in the
19:12
Speaker 3: first half.
19:14
Speaker 4: I think there there's some warranted criticism. It's because this
19:18
Speaker 4: is not like, uh, this is not like uh Sandy
19:22
Speaker 4: al Contro for the Miami Marlins pitching a shutout into
19:27
Speaker 4: the ninth inning the other the other night and no
19:30
Speaker 4: ends up getting a runners on first and second and
19:33
Speaker 4: then the manager comes out pulls them and they end
19:36
Speaker 4: up losing the game. I mean, as a coach, you
19:40
Speaker 4: gotta know.
19:40
Speaker 3: That game was over. And there's again when whether it's
19:45
Speaker 3: one sixty two or eight what was it, yeah, or
19:47
Speaker 3: eighty two in the basketball is like there's some game
19:49
Speaker 3: where you know what, we just ain't got it tonight.
19:51
Speaker 3: I don't need it because now you don't know like
19:54
Speaker 3: you year year year you were basically had they had
19:58
Speaker 3: the third spot like all. But I mean, and and
20:02
Speaker 3: let's that situation like this happened where you you were
20:05
Speaker 3: more than likely going to be in the third spot,
20:07
Speaker 3: have home court advantage through at least one round, more
20:10
Speaker 3: than and have set yourself up in a good spot
20:13
Speaker 3: to be able to play this young team in the
20:16
Speaker 3: San Antonio Spurs, even though they've got that alien on it,
20:19
Speaker 3: they're very inexperience and if you've you've got some experienced
20:23
Speaker 3: veterans that that can maybe knock them off their game.
20:27
Speaker 3: And still that.
20:28
Speaker 4: Second, especially if Luca can give you, you know, thirty thirty,
20:32
Speaker 4: if not forty points, Yeah, you know across four or
20:35
Speaker 4: five games, you're definitely in the mix for that.
20:38
Speaker 3: But I mean, all of that, all of that is
20:40
Speaker 3: out the window in the West.
20:42
Speaker 4: And so now like this, I mean, honestly, this reminds
20:45
Speaker 4: me of how many years ago was it where Golden
20:47
Speaker 4: State you had.
20:51
Speaker 3: When Kevin Durant was on the team and he came
20:53
Speaker 3: back and then ended up tearing at Achilles.
20:55
Speaker 4: Uh no, that one after that? Man, why can mind
20:59
Speaker 4: blanking is folks? This is what stinks about Libradio When
21:04
Speaker 4: you need a name and you can see a face
21:06
Speaker 4: and he's dating a female rapper and I just cannot.
21:08
Speaker 3: Oh, Clay Thompson, thank you.
21:09
Speaker 4: Yes when Clay goes out and yeah, you know when
21:12
Speaker 4: they were plagued by injuries, and its basically like, well,
21:14
Speaker 4: you know, this is a lame dug. I mean you
21:17
Speaker 4: feel like with the Lakers, I mean there's there's not
21:20
Speaker 4: enough pieces remaining on that roster that that are going
21:23
Speaker 4: to be able to be competitive, especially against this West.
21:26
Speaker 3: Which is funny, and we talked about them the last
21:28
Speaker 3: time we hear also going back over to the East
21:30
Speaker 3: and the exact opposite situation being the Boston Celtics and
21:34
Speaker 3: getting Jason. I was one of those that I was like,
21:37
Speaker 3: Jason Tatum should not come back this year. I really
21:40
Speaker 3: didn't think that he should, Like you were rushing him back,
21:43
Speaker 3: you were going to put all this pressure on him.
21:45
Speaker 3: The team was already playing so well, Like why mess
21:50
Speaker 3: up that chemistry? Why do that? And it has I
21:54
Speaker 3: won't say seamless return, but as close to seamless as
21:58
Speaker 3: you can get.
21:59
Speaker 4: I mean it really, I mean, for all the warranted
22:03
Speaker 4: criticism on how odd he can be as as a
22:06
Speaker 4: head coach, is you gotta give missoula credit because what
22:12
Speaker 4: he's been able to do in a year that we
22:14
Speaker 4: had written Boston completely written them off to be the
22:19
Speaker 4: number two arguably probably better than Yes when you look
22:24
Speaker 4: at talent. And oh, by the way, just to circle
22:27
Speaker 4: back to the Yannis situation, actually have if you put
22:31
Speaker 4: in the trade machine, Boston actually has pieces that do
22:34
Speaker 4: not involve Tatum and Brown being dealt that you could
22:39
Speaker 4: see Yannis in a Celtics jersey next year.
22:41
Speaker 3: Again, all of that, like nobody going back to the
22:44
Speaker 3: end of last and and him and Jason Tatum going
22:47
Speaker 3: out with that nobody thought about like they were and
22:50
Speaker 3: they were actually shedding talent, Yeah, to kind of figure
22:54
Speaker 3: out what they're going to do d of al Horford.
22:57
Speaker 3: You know, they were shedding talent, they were shedding contract.
23:00
Speaker 3: And here they are in the second play like and
23:04
Speaker 3: by far like looking like, if not the best team,
23:08
Speaker 3: the biggest challenger to Detroit in the Eastern Conference. And yeah,
23:12
Speaker 3: Joe Mozila deserves all the credit in the world for
23:15
Speaker 3: for not only keeping the team where they were, but again,
23:19
Speaker 3: if it's not seamless as seamless as possible, getting Jason
23:22
Speaker 3: Tatum back into.
23:23
Speaker 4: There and well and especially once Boston starts hitting threes.
23:27
Speaker 3: Oh, it's it's over. It is absolutely over. And so yeah,
23:31
Speaker 3: we have three games left in the regular season before
23:35
Speaker 3: we get to the Amazon Prime play in Tournament and
23:38
Speaker 3: trying to figure out how and when to watch all
23:41
Speaker 3: of that. Like, I just they're gonna have every single
23:44
Speaker 3: game of the play in Tournament and it just get again.
23:48
Speaker 3: It goes back to having NBA games on Prime anyway.
23:52
Speaker 3: With the I just it is just so hard for
23:54
Speaker 3: me to remember. I mean, this will be easier because
23:56
Speaker 3: if I'm going to watch the play in Tournament, I
23:58
Speaker 3: know to watch that, but like finding when and where
24:01
Speaker 3: the games are just so hard. I know, and I
24:05
Speaker 3: know that these are first world problems and put all, like,
24:07
Speaker 3: I just want to be able to watch sports.
24:10
Speaker 4: Well, and you know, from the standpoint of we are
24:14
Speaker 4: so used to the four major networks and then the mothership, yes,
24:19
Speaker 4: and you know to go to go to that. With
24:22
Speaker 4: baseball it kind of expanded to a couple of the
24:25
Speaker 4: cable channels, you know, the turn the turner, the Turner channel. Well,
24:28
Speaker 4: and even with the NBA, we knew you had to
24:30
Speaker 4: go to the turner channels and then uh, you would
24:33
Speaker 4: also have your traditional broadcast. Uh from that standpoint, but yeah,
24:37
Speaker 4: I mean in a world where you can pull up
24:44
Speaker 4: any game on just about any device, yes that is great.
24:48
Speaker 4: But at the same time, there's a lot to be
24:50
Speaker 4: said about knowing where to watch, when to watch, all
24:55
Speaker 4: that kind of stuff. Yeah, I I I can, I
24:58
Speaker 4: can empathize.
25:00
Speaker 3: Highway six North is starting to back a little bit.
25:04
Speaker 3: So if you're listening to us just being prepared, well.
25:06
Speaker 4: I mean, I will say it's five point thirty. This
25:08
Speaker 4: is about the normal time this stretch starts slowing down.
25:13
Speaker 4: The good part is it's not at a standstill, not yet,
25:16
Speaker 4: not yet, but yeah, never know, it could be coming.
25:22
Speaker 3: Yeah. Coming back in just a second is Jason and

31:46
Speaker 3: Was it the what video?
31:47
Speaker 13: Was it?
31:47

31:48
Speaker 3: Was it the chinky video that she was in?
31:50
Speaker 4: Raven Simone has like a good six inches on her?
31:54
Speaker 3: Was it the chinky video that she was in?
31:56
Speaker 4: I think so?
31:56
Speaker 3: Yeah, Like she didn't look at that well obviously she
31:59
Speaker 3: was wearing the booth like what Yeah, okay, she's But
32:03
Speaker 3: how is Rudy Huxtable forty seven years old?
32:07
Speaker 15: She is?
32:07
Speaker 3: And I, like I I always assumed, like thinking back
32:14
Speaker 3: to the Cosby Show and don't even come at me again,
32:20
Speaker 3: as we talked about.
32:21
Speaker 4: This artists show from Yeah, Yes, thank you.
32:25
Speaker 3: That I always thought that I was more Theo's age
32:30
Speaker 3: as I was watching it than Rudy's age.
32:34
Speaker 4: And I was and as we as we discussed, you know,
32:36
Speaker 4: as we discussed because we came on the air the
32:39
Speaker 4: day he unfortunately passed. Yeah, Malcolm Jamal Warner was fifteen
32:44
Speaker 4: when when the show started.
32:46
Speaker 3: Right, which would mean I was nowhere near fifty. Like
32:50
Speaker 3: holy cow, Like that completely flips my thought process on
32:57
Speaker 3: on the show. But I guess so like I remember,
32:59
Speaker 3: like there I I was not in college when THEO
33:01
Speaker 3: went to college, like holy cat, Like I don't even think,
33:05
Speaker 3: but yeah, there was. I was not even close to
33:06
Speaker 3: college when THEO was going to college.
33:08
Speaker 4: I mean, it's it's so so Keisha's is just a
33:11
Speaker 4: little not even a full year older than well, no,
33:15
Speaker 4: she is. She is a full year older than I am.
33:17
Speaker 4: I'm August eighty, she's obviously April of seventy nine, and
33:22
Speaker 4: I'm I'm now thinking back to kind of her progression
33:25
Speaker 4: on the show, and especially when I started watching, and
33:28
Speaker 4: kind of how the ages corresponded. But like you, I
33:33
Speaker 4: didn't think of it in those terms. I always equated,
33:36
Speaker 4: you know, myself to THEO. Yeah, when watching Save by
33:39
Speaker 4: the Bell, like Zach Right and Slater, despite the fact
33:42
Speaker 4: they were, you know, a good four or five years
33:45
Speaker 4: older than me at that point.
33:46
Speaker 3: It's yeah, it's amazing and obviously THEO is the only
33:48
Speaker 3: son in there, so you're going to relate more than him.
33:52
Speaker 3: But I never, like, seriously look at like it doesn't.
33:55
Speaker 3: It did not click to me like I always assumed.
33:58
Speaker 6: Like I was.
34:00
Speaker 4: I mean, you know, and that was that was always
34:01
Speaker 4: a thing about especially especially in eighties television ages. We're
34:08
Speaker 4: just all over the place, like you could not tell
34:10
Speaker 4: who was what age.
34:12
Speaker 11: You know.
34:13
Speaker 4: The classic joke, especially when we were in junior high
34:18
Speaker 4: and going into high school, was on nine two one, oh,
34:21
Speaker 4: Luke Perry looked like he clearly looked more like a
34:24
Speaker 4: forty year older than he did a high school student.
34:27
Speaker 3: Oh one thousand percent the kids at nine o two
34:30
Speaker 3: and oh did we're not the high one? Okay.
34:32
Speaker 4: I wanted to send you this joke during the final
34:35
Speaker 4: four Oh Illinois number fifteen, Davis, the white guy with
34:44
Speaker 4: the curly long haird of tonytail, I wanted to send
34:48
Speaker 4: I was like, I need to get a screenshot of
34:50
Speaker 4: him because this joke's just not going to land. But
34:52
Speaker 4: he looks like the guy from the eighties movie Uh
34:57
Speaker 4: that is clearly it's a movie set in college, but
35:00
Speaker 4: he is clearly forty two years old trying to pass
35:03
Speaker 4: off as a twenty one year old frat bro I
35:06
Speaker 4: mean it like clearly did not look.
35:10
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, the ages of some of the people on
35:13
Speaker 3: the show. It's like either like obviously nine O two
35:16
Speaker 3: one zero or show And I didn't my shows like
35:19
Speaker 3: One Tree, Hill and All because I would watch that
35:22
Speaker 3: because they were supposed to be high school basketball players.
35:25
Speaker 3: And I'm like, this is the worst example of basketball
35:27
Speaker 3: on television.
35:28
Speaker 4: I think I have seen I think white shadows. Oh well,
35:33
Speaker 4: and I checked that again my algorithm. I know we're
35:36
Speaker 4: getting off topic. Mark Curry has just been all over
35:39
Speaker 4: my algorithm late. I guess there's been like a hanging
35:42
Speaker 4: with mister Cooper reunion going on, so him and Holly
35:46
Speaker 4: p and god, he's he still looks great. Reginald vel
35:50
Speaker 4: Johnson who was in the picture with him, you could
35:53
Speaker 4: tell me Reginald is only fifty five years old, and
35:55
Speaker 4: I believe you right, he does not look like he's age.
35:58
Speaker 3: But anyway, sorry, no, And that's one of the things
36:03
Speaker 3: that anyone, any of our did. We're at how many
36:06
Speaker 3: listeners now, we're in the set seventies, I say, in
36:08
Speaker 3: the seventies. If any of our listens are like if
36:11
Speaker 3: it is nineties music or eighties nineties television. We will
36:18
Speaker 3: get off on tangents that that you would not believe,
36:22
Speaker 3: because that is just that's that's our real wheelhouse.
36:26
Speaker 4: I was at the gym this morning. This song came
36:28
Speaker 4: on and I told the coach, hey, can we we
36:31
Speaker 4: skip it because it's way too slow? And she was
36:34
Speaker 4: asking me what song is this? And I was like,
36:36
Speaker 4: it's Duran Duran Ordinary World from nineteen ninety two. And
36:39
Speaker 4: this college girl was like, how do you know that?
36:42
Speaker 3: Because it's music and we actually listen to it and
36:44
Speaker 3: pay attention to it.
36:45
Speaker 4: And I'm an encyclopedia of worthless lunge. What's an encyclopedia?
36:48
Speaker 3: H oh wow, yeah, do you know what an encyclopedia is?
36:51
Speaker 13: Just?
36:52
Speaker 3: Okay, not your thank you now? Well you because you
36:55
Speaker 3: were joking about like you didn't know how much that
36:58
Speaker 3: much about Janet Jackson until you started working the show
37:01
Speaker 3: with us, right, yeah, And he started looking up JANEA.
37:03
Speaker 3: Jack because that is and and when we like her,
37:06
Speaker 3: now don't we there we.
37:07
Speaker 15: Go okay, all right now that we have like four minutes, yeah,
37:12
Speaker 15: but no going back to the masters and looking at that,
37:16
Speaker 15: and so I'm just curious like.
37:19
Speaker 3: How how like I don't. It's one of those things
37:25
Speaker 3: to where like for me, I don't. I've one of
37:27
Speaker 3: my bucket listed. I'm kind of going back to you,
37:30
Speaker 3: is I want to go and watch a Duke North
37:34
Speaker 3: Carolina game at Cameron Indoor.
37:36
Speaker 4: Okay, And by the way I hear, it's kind of
37:39
Speaker 4: I mean, there's something to be said about being in there.
37:42
Speaker 4: But I've heard Cameron Indoor is actually kind of a dump.
37:44
Speaker 3: It's a small arena, it is, it is super small,
37:50
Speaker 3: like and I've been lucky this year, like with with
37:53
Speaker 3: traveling for women's basketball to go in some some pretty
37:57
Speaker 3: nice arenas.
37:57
Speaker 4: And you've been to alan Field Health, yes right, I
38:01
Speaker 4: mean so and so have I. And it's old, yes,
38:05
Speaker 4: but you you feel the history of it and I
38:07
Speaker 4: and I'm you know, Cameron Indoor would kind of fit
38:09
Speaker 4: in that.
38:10
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's what I saying, Like, yeah, I want to.
38:11
Speaker 3: I want because I was always a Duke fan as
38:13
Speaker 3: a kid, and yeah, I want to go see Cameron Indoor.
38:15
Speaker 3: But I'm just like, do you And and That's where
38:19
Speaker 3: I was going with that, thank you, So I I
38:21
Speaker 3: still want to do it, but I've heard Cameron Indoor
38:24
Speaker 3: is a letdown. You have been in the master's lottery
38:29
Speaker 3: since two thousand and six. Yes, is there any part
38:33
Speaker 3: of you that is worried about it being?
38:36
Speaker 4: No, No, because literally everything I have seen, heard and
38:41
Speaker 4: read tells you it's actually well it will Any expectation
38:45
Speaker 4: to have TV doesn't do any doesn't do it justice
38:49
Speaker 4: to to walk, to look, to smell, to to feel.
38:54
Speaker 4: I mean just everything about it is incomparable and so uh.
39:02
Speaker 3: To me.
39:03
Speaker 4: I guess there. You know, there's those things that you
39:06
Speaker 4: just know will not let you down for as you know,
39:14
Speaker 4: for when when I say this, For as dirty as
39:17
Speaker 4: New York is rumored to be, it has long been
39:20
Speaker 4: rumored to be, and granted prior to the nineties, Yes
39:23
Speaker 4: there were they were very much true. But to go there,
39:27
Speaker 4: to to go to Yankee Stadium, to go to the
39:30
Speaker 4: Mecca Madison Square Garden, to go to to to experience
39:35
Speaker 4: that it's it you're it's not a let down. From
39:41
Speaker 4: the standpoint.
39:42
Speaker 3: I always laugh and people say that New Yorkers are
39:45
Speaker 3: are mean, and I like to my in my experience
39:48
Speaker 3: when I was there, it's not like they're. Most of
39:50
Speaker 3: them were actually very nice.
39:52
Speaker 4: They're just like it's a it's a fat and that's
39:56
Speaker 4: the thing, is kind of you have to know.
39:58
Speaker 3: It's a fast place and you can't ask a long
40:00
Speaker 3: drawn out question like hey, can you help me find this,
40:02
Speaker 3: and no point to it and go on about it
40:04
Speaker 3: the way like they just they are getting to where
40:06
Speaker 3: they need to go, mostly because none of them drive
40:08
Speaker 3: and they have to be able to get where they're going. Either.
40:11
Speaker 4: Disney World, Yeah, I mean I expected it to be
40:14
Speaker 4: geared towards kids when I went there in two thousand
40:16
Speaker 4: and six. And I love going there because you get
40:21
Speaker 4: in that bubble and it just everything about it. You
40:26
Speaker 4: feel great once you're in that bubble. And then when
40:28
Speaker 4: you get home and look at the credit card bill,
40:30
Speaker 4: that the reality slaps you in the face. And that's
40:32
Speaker 4: gonna be what going to Augusta National is. Because I
40:35
Speaker 4: hate to tell you this. And if I ever get
40:37
Speaker 4: to go, and I go get to go to the
40:38
Speaker 4: gift shop, guess what we're spending four figures?
40:42
Speaker 3: Oh oh, I would expect nothing less if you were there,
40:46
Speaker 3: Like that's one of those.
40:47
Speaker 4: Things gets you a coffee cup.
40:49
Speaker 3: If I like, there are certain things on a trip
40:51
Speaker 3: you just do you You have to distance yourself from
40:55
Speaker 3: the reality of the situation, and so yeah, you just
40:59
Speaker 3: I am here. I don't know if or when I
41:02
Speaker 3: will ever be back exactly. I'm just going to I
41:04
Speaker 3: will I will buy. And the funny thing way, because
41:07
Speaker 3: you and I have talked about this before too, I
41:09
Speaker 3: was gonna say, like, yeah, I'll buy the fourteen dollars
41:12
Speaker 3: pimento cheese sandwich. But the food isn't expensive.
41:15
Speaker 4: There no dollar fifty cent.
41:16
Speaker 3: Yes, what I'm saying, like you think, like you think
41:18
Speaker 3: in a situation, you're gonna go there, because you go
41:21
Speaker 3: even going down to Minute Made or to uh Toyota
41:25
Speaker 3: or something, even going to Kyle right now, the food
41:30
Speaker 3: is so.
41:30
Speaker 4: Well, That's what I was about to say when you
41:32
Speaker 4: brought it up, because though you can see the menu
41:36
Speaker 4: prices at Augusta National right now, and then you compare
41:41
Speaker 4: that when you have to buy a nine dollars now,
41:43
Speaker 4: granted it's free refills, but you're maybe gonna get one
41:48
Speaker 4: if not too if you're lucky during the mat during
41:50
Speaker 4: a game. The amount of money you have to spend
41:54
Speaker 4: on food, it is, on top of it you've already
41:58
Speaker 4: spent to just get in brutal. And that's again I
42:03
Speaker 4: think that's why that Augustine National and the Masters is
42:07
Speaker 4: so appealing. It's because kind of like Costco, they've kept
42:11
Speaker 4: the price down. They could raise it. Yeah, they know
42:14
Speaker 4: they could. Scarcity, I mean perfect market economy. Scarcity allows
42:19
Speaker 4: them to price whatever they want because you can't buy
42:22
Speaker 4: this stuff anywhere else. But they're not. They're there. They
42:27
Speaker 4: they are trying to provide you with an enjoyable experience.
42:30
Speaker 3: They know that that's what you were there for. They
42:32
Speaker 3: they're getting their money. Oh god, yeah, they understand that
42:35
Speaker 3: they're getting their money coming back. I guess you talked
42:41
Speaker 3: about the pit and I know we've looked at a
42:44
Speaker 3: couple of I kind of.
42:46
Speaker 4: Want to touch on this doj in the NFL story
42:48
Speaker 4: because as we talk about television stringing and everything like that.
42:51

46:29

46:34
Speaker 4: correct It's just one of those like you say you
46:37
Speaker 4: can put it on. I want you to know, my lady,
46:45
Speaker 4: honestly speaking, if especially if you kind of edit out
46:48
Speaker 4: the fade in and the fade album, you could put
46:52
Speaker 4: this on repeat and not actually know when the song begins.

47:12
Speaker 4: It's I mean, it's it's muscle memory.

Speaker 3: Yes, it is all right. Toby Sports Talk taking over
47:17
Speaker 3: by Jason and Jared. Wonderful Thursday afternoon. Highway six traffic,
47:21
Speaker 3: both directions right now, going right, all right, keep keep
47:25
Speaker 3: it going if you're if you're listening to us, thank you.
47:27
Speaker 3: Keep your phones down. Pay attention to all of the
47:31
Speaker 3: changes here on Highway six, the Big six project, do
47:36
Speaker 3: you okay? I don't know.
47:38
Speaker 4: Maybe you share the cinement, maybe you don't. When I'm driving,
47:41
Speaker 4: I'm looking at what they're doing, and I'm trying to
47:44
Speaker 4: figure out, Okay, what what exactly is this going to
47:49
Speaker 4: look like?
47:49
Speaker 3: I don't and I've seen the designs and what they're
47:54
Speaker 3: starting to do right now don't match what I think
47:57
Speaker 3: I saw on the designs.
47:59
Speaker 4: Because you know, when uh so on the northbound, when
48:02
Speaker 4: they did the lane shifty, when they were building that
48:06
Speaker 4: and paving that, I thought to myself, Ay, I don't
48:09
Speaker 4: know how sturdy that ground looks. But B is like,
48:13
Speaker 4: that's probably not permanent, which I obviously don't think it is.
48:17
Speaker 4: But it's like I guess they're doing that's going to
48:19
Speaker 4: be the new feeder, because I guess they're going to
48:21
Speaker 4: start working on the feeder and it's like, no, that's
48:23
Speaker 4: new highway. Because now they're they're doing I guess what's
48:26
Speaker 4: going to be end up being the Texas Avenue flyover exit,
48:32
Speaker 4: flyover under under or however it's going to be done.
48:36
Speaker 4: And like what they're doing, what they're doing up here
48:39
Speaker 4: at Southwest Parkway, it looks like now they are constructing there,
48:45
Speaker 4: they're doing what's going to be a retaining wall for
48:48
Speaker 4: what they've they've cleared away. But I still can't figure
48:53
Speaker 4: out what. Yeah, me neither, So I got nothing. I'm
48:56
Speaker 4: just like if I could, I don't. I don't want
48:59
Speaker 4: to blink. My girls are going to be five years older,
49:01
Speaker 4: but I almost kind of want to blink and be
49:02
Speaker 4: like five years from now, just have this all be top.
49:05
Speaker 3: Yeah, like, yeah, it'll five years.
49:08
Speaker 4: We'll see My over under is still at eight. All right,
49:11
Speaker 4: So let's talk. Story came out today the Department of Justice,
49:14
Speaker 4: which apparently has nothing else more important to do, is
49:18
Speaker 4: opening an anti trust investigation into the NFL over TV deals.
49:22
Speaker 4: Now when you read that, you start to think, okay,
49:25
Speaker 4: there we're talking all television contracts. I'm sure it may
49:31
Speaker 4: morph into that discovery. But what this is specifically talking
49:35
Speaker 4: about is the NFL Sunday ticket again, which DirecTV lost
49:43
Speaker 4: YouTube owned by Google or Alphabet outbid DirecTV for the
49:49
Speaker 4: carrier rights. Yes, now what is being what is being
49:56
Speaker 4: alleged by the plaintiffs is that the NFL is price
50:00
Speaker 4: gouging consumers for this service. Again, again, what I would
50:09
Speaker 4: argue is, and I'm assuming this is the NFL's argument,
50:15
Speaker 4: you are paying for the ability to watch every NFL
50:21
Speaker 4: game on a given Sunday that normal citizens do to
50:26
Speaker 4: get to watch because of what was passed in nineteen
50:31
Speaker 4: sixty one, the Sports Broadcasting Act, which allowed which gave
50:35
Speaker 4: basically all sports entities antitrust protection over their product. Because again,
50:44
Speaker 4: at the end of the day, this is a privately
50:46
Speaker 4: owned product. This is a public entity, a public service.
50:53
Speaker 4: I mean I would say, yeah, I mean, I think
50:56
Speaker 4: if you were to get the Sunday ticket now on YouTube,
50:59
Speaker 4: I think it's like four hundred dollars.
51:00
Speaker 3: I don't even probably don't.
51:02
Speaker 4: I don't waste time with it.
51:03
Speaker 3: I don't like that because we have YouTube TV at
51:05
Speaker 3: the like, and that comes up every get I don't
51:09
Speaker 3: even look at it.
51:09
Speaker 4: When when we had Direct TV, we kept getting the
51:12
Speaker 4: Sunday ticket because you have to do is call and
51:14
Speaker 4: threat and you're gonna leave Direct TV and they're like, oh,
51:17
Speaker 4: we can give you the Sunday ticket for free. Kind
51:20
Speaker 4: of wonder why Direct TV lost the Sunday ticket to
51:22
Speaker 4: YouTube TV, but that's how we had it for a
51:24
Speaker 4: number of years, because no, we're not going to pay
51:26
Speaker 4: that much.
51:27
Speaker 3: It is ridiculous.
51:29
Speaker 4: Yeah, are there times where I don't want to watch
51:32
Speaker 4: I don't want to be blacked out from every other
51:35
Speaker 4: NFL game because we are in the Houston Texans DMA
51:40
Speaker 4: and so we have if they're at home, we have
51:42
Speaker 4: to watch only that game at that window. Yeah, it
51:45
Speaker 4: kind of stinks, But at the same time, it's not
51:48
Speaker 4: worth three or four hundred dollars. You know, Uh, Cincinnati
51:53
Speaker 4: and Cleveland play the Sunday noon game.
51:56
Speaker 3: I am not enough of a gambler to need to
51:58
Speaker 3: watch all of those games.
51:59
Speaker 4: And I guess that's what drives it, probably more than.
52:04
Speaker 3: Either either straight up gambling.
52:07
Speaker 4: Or fantasy fantasy football.
52:09
Speaker 3: Yeah, like one of the two of those again, because
52:11
Speaker 3: that's when I was a lot more active in fantasy football.
52:14
Speaker 3: That was the only reason why I was watching other games. Yeah,
52:16
Speaker 3: it was become like I got to see how my
52:18
Speaker 3: players are doing, Like I got to know what's going on.
52:20
Speaker 3: But other than that, Like yeah, but I still never
52:22
Speaker 3: got the Sunday ticket because I didn't care that much.
52:24
Speaker 4: No, No, I mean I mean if you're if you're
52:28
Speaker 4: a an eating or drinking establishment that would benefit from
52:31
Speaker 4: being able to broadcast multiple Oh yeah, that makes perfect sense.
52:34
Speaker 4: Average consumer. I mean it's if you're a big enough fan,
52:39
Speaker 4: then the market economy dictates that you what you have
52:44
Speaker 4: to do, You have to pay for this.
52:46
Speaker 3: You got to be a pretty degenerate gambler to like
52:49
Speaker 3: I mean I say that like or just a I
52:52
Speaker 3: am just not a big enough NFL fan to want
52:56
Speaker 3: to shell out that much. The games that they put
52:59
Speaker 3: on typically are entertaining enough for me to be able
53:02
Speaker 3: to watch on the network.
53:03
Speaker 4: So going back to what we talked about last time,
53:05
Speaker 4: and especially how you can you know, Major League Baseball
53:08
Speaker 4: has a subscription package where you can watch every every
53:11
Speaker 4: game on a given night. You know, the NBA, NHL,
53:15
Speaker 4: they all have it. But again it's something it's something
53:21
Speaker 4: special that the league is providing and the get their product.
53:26
Speaker 4: To get their product, there is an intrinsic value to it,
53:30
Speaker 4: and they have set what that price is, set what
53:32
Speaker 4: that price is. So I don't, I honestly don't know
53:36
Speaker 4: what kind of teeth this thing is going to have,
53:39
Speaker 4: especially when I mean, two years ago, a district court
53:47
Speaker 4: in LA said the NFL violated anti trust laws in
53:53
Speaker 4: the distributing of out of market Sunday afternoon games on
53:56
Speaker 4: a premium subscription service and awarded four point seven billion
53:59
Speaker 4: dollars in damage, which, of course you knew that was
54:01
Speaker 4: going to be that was going to be appealed. Yes,
54:05
Speaker 4: and now because the damages can triple under federal federal
54:09
Speaker 4: antitrust laws, the NFL could be liable for folks. This
54:14
Speaker 4: is not a joke. Fourteen billion dollars. I again, I
54:21
Speaker 4: don't see how this goes anywhere.
54:23
Speaker 3: No, not at that level. Not, I mean again, and
54:29
Speaker 3: and then even if it does, it'll get appealed.
54:31
Speaker 4: I just yeah, it is just un I mean, if
54:33
Speaker 4: you if you want to make an argument like you
54:35
Speaker 4: were talking about, where it's difficult to find the game
54:41
Speaker 4: you want to watch on a given night, I could
54:46
Speaker 4: I mean, I can see some logic in the fact,
54:50
Speaker 4: you know, in order to watch football, I've got to
54:54
Speaker 4: have this, this, and this and this subscription service. Right
54:57
Speaker 4: But in most cases, and this is where I think
55:00
Speaker 4: the NFL is gonna win on this. If you're talking
55:02
Speaker 4: about your local team, anytime your team plays local is
55:06
Speaker 4: a local there is a local broadcast, even when it's
55:08
Speaker 4: on one subscription services. So that's why I was like,
55:11
Speaker 4: I don't see how this is going to go anywhere,
55:14
Speaker 4: and why the Department of Justice is frankly even wasting
55:18
Speaker 4: time on it.
55:19
