- 3:02Speaker 5: a good The trade deadline's over in the NBA. We'll
- 3:05Speaker 5: talk about it, obviously, but would you trade the zero
- 3:08Speaker 5: degree temperatures for none, none of this layer of this
- 3:11Speaker 5: inch of nuisance snow. When it's thirty thirty one out,
- 3:14Speaker 5: the salt that was on the road residually still kind
- 3:17Speaker 5: of works, but not really. And it was like, man,
- 3:20Speaker 5: it's flip driving on a little ice rink. Pay especially
- 3:22Speaker 5: side streets.
- 3:23Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 3:23Speaker 3: No.
- 3:23Speaker 1: Probably the worst part of the drive was the quarter.
- 3:26Speaker 6: Mile from the once you got off West Ye to
- 3:29Speaker 6: the megaplex.
- 3:30Speaker 5: That was like what oh man, Yeah, when you're in,
- 3:33Speaker 5: when you get up this early, it's like, okay, we're
- 3:35Speaker 5: up and we're rolling, but you're are you really awake?
- 3:38Speaker 1: Are you really are you? Are you at one hundred
- 3:41Speaker 1: percent yet? No, you're your meter is.
- 3:43Speaker 6: It's a good operation about eighty eighty two? Yeah, yeah,
- 3:46Speaker 6: you're you're you're floating right in the three quarters full
- 3:49Speaker 6: on the tank. And they always say that when you're
- 3:51Speaker 6: really tired and you're you know, for whatever reasons, when
- 3:55Speaker 6: you're really tired and you have to go drive, it's
- 3:57Speaker 6: a little bit like being impaired by yeah, since.
- 4:00Speaker 1: Which isn't good.
- 4:01Speaker 6: I mean, you gotta be like, oh wait, I'm I'm
- 4:05Speaker 6: I'm driving.
- 4:05Speaker 1: A two ton missile here.
- 4:06Speaker 6: I gotta be make sure I'm aware of what's going on,
- 4:09Speaker 6: you know, so you open the window a little bit,
- 4:11Speaker 6: you know, stuff like that.
- 4:11Speaker 1: You wake yourself up with that shot of espresso.
- 4:15Speaker 6: That's a great question, though, because I would always have said,
- 4:18Speaker 6: you know, I'll take the cold, you know, because the
- 4:20Speaker 6: snow creates problems and hazards and work.
- 4:23Speaker 1: You know, I gotta.
- 4:24Speaker 6: Shovel into other But you know, when it's super cold,
- 4:27Speaker 6: that negative ten, I wasn't down for all that, you know,
- 4:29Speaker 6: And it feels like paradise out here with this thirty
- 4:31Speaker 6: degrees ball me.
- 4:32Speaker 5: But the trade off is the roads are bad. It'll
- 4:36Speaker 5: clear up and it's supposed to stop the snowing at
- 4:38Speaker 5: a by nine o'clock or whatever, so all right, lake effect,
- 4:41Speaker 5: whatever it is.
- 4:42Speaker 1: But it was a slick ride here.
- 4:43Speaker 5: You can hope for one of those days where like,
- 4:45Speaker 5: oh it'll melt by three o'clock and then it does freeze.
- 4:47Speaker 5: Sober and it's a little bit different, but it does
- 4:49Speaker 5: look good. This is the one where you wake up
- 4:51Speaker 5: this morning and it'll.
- 4:52Speaker 6: Actually be coated up on the trees. This is the
- 4:55Speaker 6: one that it actually looks a little nice. And this
- 4:56Speaker 6: is the prettiest. Yeah, this is the Christmas card snow. Yes,
- 5:00Speaker 6: and it would be nice if it actually came on
- 5:01Speaker 6: Christmas instead of the week after or two weeks before.
- 5:05Speaker 6: But you know, beggars can't be choosing six sevens right
- 5:07Speaker 6: after groundhog dack. It were big thick flakes though they
- 5:10Speaker 6: were like quarter size, half dollar size. Even well, I

- 5:42Speaker 6: that guy, Yeah, just be like, look, they're gonna like

- 6:30Speaker 5: process of buying car. Was talking to my my financial people,
- 6:34Speaker 5: getting the down payment ready, trying to get the pre approval,
- 6:36Speaker 5: and then go, uh, do I want to do the
- 6:38Speaker 5: quick surgical strike. I am not a guy who's gonna
- 6:41Speaker 5: labor over this, and I'm not a guy that wants
- 6:43Speaker 5: to be worked by sales guys. And now we have
- 6:46Speaker 5: friends in the car industry m hm, and have I
- 6:48Speaker 5: got good partners and stuff. But it is a tough process.
- 6:51Speaker 5: Like I don't care. I'm not a car guy, never
- 6:55Speaker 5: have been.
- 6:56Speaker 1: I don't care.
- 6:56Speaker 5: Just get me something that gets me from point A
- 6:58Speaker 5: to point B. You're not looking for a certain horse.
- 7:00Speaker 5: Features aren't going to make a whole lot of difference.
- 7:02Speaker 5: I am bougie when it comes to I've once you
- 7:05Speaker 5: live with the heated seats. Heated yep, hard to give
- 7:08Speaker 5: that up.
- 7:09Speaker 1: You know what I like?
- 7:10Speaker 5: Yes, and that was that you are a couple of
- 7:11Speaker 5: features that are almost non negotiable. And this is where
- 7:14Speaker 5: armand and I have differed for a long time since
- 7:16Speaker 5: we've started doing this show.
- 7:17Speaker 1: Drew.
- 7:18Speaker 6: Now you're talking to somebody who is very accepted and
- 7:22Speaker 6: very very cool with you know what, I'll plug in
- 7:25Speaker 6: twenty things on my grocery list.
- 7:26Speaker 1: You bring them on. Thank you very much. I appreciate it.
- 7:29Speaker 1: You do the shopping that.
- 7:30Speaker 6: Yes, it can be nice to walk around in therapeutic
- 7:33Speaker 6: it can also be high level stress when you're getting
- 7:38Speaker 6: blocked by some guy walk reading eighteen different prices per
- 7:42Speaker 6: pound on the green beans, and then also getting uh
- 7:47Speaker 6: the side from the lady that's got two headphones in
- 7:50Speaker 6: while talking to somebody.
- 7:51Speaker 1: Else on the phone. Like it could be a cluster.
- 7:54Speaker 6: You bring it out to me, I'll be very okay
- 7:56Speaker 6: with whatever you help. Online shopping for a car, people
- 8:00Speaker 6: of a certain age are gonna laugh, give a massive
- 8:03Speaker 6: side and.
- 8:03Speaker 1: Said, there is no weight in heck, you can have
- 8:05Speaker 1: a vending machine car.
- 8:07Speaker 6: And then like Nirvana, Carvana comes out of the sky
- 8:12Speaker 6: and delivers that son of a gun on a flatbed
- 8:14Speaker 6: to your house. I'm just saying, look into twenty twenty six,
- 8:17Speaker 6: it might be able to eat some of those stresses
- 8:19Speaker 6: for you.
- 8:19Speaker 5: Right, that's not a bad idea because everything else online
- 8:23Speaker 5: ship to the house.
- 8:25Speaker 1: There on a car deliver.
- 8:27Speaker 6: We do services for everything else, so why not well,
- 8:29Speaker 6: you know you get the carfax. But you know the
- 8:31Speaker 6: thing is, you're right, like I am conflict avoidant. So
- 8:34Speaker 6: the one thing I like avoiding is that the hag haggle,
- 8:37Speaker 6: the hassle trying to tell.
- 8:40Speaker 5: You, and I just I'm usually just at their mercy.
- 8:43Speaker 5: I just like, dude, I want this at this out
- 8:46Speaker 5: the door, I want your acquisition fee, your clearcoat. You're
- 8:50Speaker 5: like simonizing the twenty five hundred they try to slap
- 8:54Speaker 5: on to make their you know, uh huh, their bonus.
- 8:57Speaker 5: This market marked down is actually with yeah, well that
- 9:00Speaker 5: come attached to Yeah, exactly, and then on a tack
- 9:03Speaker 5: tidle license out the door, this is the number. That's
- 9:06Speaker 5: what I got to make that work. We're good, right,
- 9:09Speaker 5: and then it's I try to be easy going about it,
- 9:11Speaker 5: but it's I'm just not a haggler.
- 9:12Speaker 1: I'm like army. But when it comes to it's like.
- 9:14Speaker 6: Well do you want this car, It's like, I don't
- 9:16Speaker 6: really care, it does not matter to me. Yes, and
- 9:19Speaker 6: I want you said heated seats. Now, having that luxury
- 9:22Speaker 6: that is one that I'm not going away from.
- 9:25Speaker 1: I would go there. It's hard to go.
- 9:26Speaker 5: It's like living in a place with a washer driwer
- 9:28Speaker 5: you'll never slap your clothes to the laundromatic and not
- 9:30Speaker 5: doing it.
- 9:30Speaker 1: No, we're gonna like that's one of the signs of adulthood.
- 9:33Speaker 5: You live in that crappy frat house, or you're with
- 9:34Speaker 5: your body and stuff like, you don't have a washer drive.
- 9:37Speaker 6: We gotta washer drive. Well, we're battling right now. The
- 9:39Speaker 6: worst thing was we had it on the first level.
- 9:41Speaker 6: Now I even go down to the basement, you'd think
- 9:42Speaker 6: that we do have to go to the launder maat.
- 9:44Speaker 1: I see.
- 9:44Speaker 5: That's the exactly the convenience is that you get used
- 9:47Speaker 5: to that you begin, but you.
- 9:49Speaker 6: Find that life and you're like, listen, I'm not I
- 9:51Speaker 6: could live without the towel warmer that I got my
- 9:54Speaker 6: wife for Christmas at four in the morning. When I
- 9:57Speaker 6: take my shower. Have I taken a sh Have I
- 10:00Speaker 6: taken a shower and not used it in the last
- 10:02Speaker 6: two months? Absolutely not? Absolutely not.
- 10:05Speaker 5: Did I fire that son of a gun up yesterday
- 10:07Speaker 5: and just put off for a little warm blanket before
- 10:10Speaker 5: I took put my shirt on? Yeah, I actually did,
- 10:13Speaker 5: and I didn't feel that bad about it. There are
- 10:14Speaker 5: certain luxuries drew that you start to come acusso with
- 10:17Speaker 5: and in the cold and in the winter. For me,
- 10:20Speaker 5: it was the little bit of feeling like I had
- 10:22Speaker 5: my convertible sea bring when I was buying my new car.
- 10:24Speaker 1: I think it was my fourth new car in like
- 10:26Speaker 1: three years. After that, you had, you had to get
- 10:27Speaker 1: a bunch of them. I had to go sunroof.
- 10:31Speaker 6: Because I did need to get the a little the
- 10:34Speaker 6: the greenhouse feel effect. When it is minus ten degrees
- 10:39Speaker 6: out and at least you get a little bolt of sunshine,
- 10:41Speaker 6: it's Sonny, you got three black jackets on it.
- 10:44Speaker 1: You can almost feel like you're in a tropical vacation.
- 10:46Speaker 6: My car's black, so it really gets hot, and look
- 10:49Speaker 6: at me, it does, and it is nice this time
- 10:51Speaker 6: of year. If it is somewhat sunny, you actually do
- 10:53Speaker 6: get kind of warm.
- 10:54Speaker 3: Now.
- 10:54Speaker 1: Also, it's awful. It's an awful oven in the summer.
- 10:57Speaker 6: In that situation, if you don't find shade, but is
- 11:00Speaker 6: pre nice, I'm sort of like you. And this is
- 11:02Speaker 6: the Dave Ramsey and me. I mean the car. You
- 11:04Speaker 6: know you you put too much into a car. You're
- 11:06Speaker 6: not gonna get it back because it doesn't appreciate. However,
- 11:09Speaker 6: the world of the cars, the one and only one
- 11:11Speaker 6: tail of the cars. You don't need them.
- 11:12Speaker 1: You don't need him.
- 11:13Speaker 6: You broke, you broke. You can't buy. You can't you
- 11:15Speaker 6: can't go out to all guard Uh. The one and
- 11:18Speaker 6: only the thing I wanted was when I did get
- 11:21Speaker 6: my my first car, and I didn't get it until
- 11:23Speaker 6: I was done with college. I really owned my first car.
- 11:26Speaker 6: I used to just drive dads was. I wanted a convertible,
- 11:28Speaker 6: So that's when I went to Sea Marie. That was
- 11:29Speaker 6: the cheapest convertible, you get. I just wanted to have
- 11:32Speaker 6: it once one time. I think I was an old soul.
- 11:34Speaker 6: You know, we always made the seabring jokes. You know
- 11:37Speaker 6: it was great. I think I was an old soul
- 11:38Speaker 6: at twenty two, knowing I'm never gonna have a good
- 11:40Speaker 6: better time to do this. If I'm gonna hown a
- 11:42Speaker 6: convertible one time, it's gonna be right now. And let
- 11:45Speaker 6: me tell you it's a rolling compromise in Wisconsin. You know,
- 11:47Speaker 6: for you do it for three months, I think you
- 11:49Speaker 6: might become a convertible guy once again in your life.
- 11:51Speaker 6: Yeah right, maybe one day if we get Stillbird Sarian,
- 11:54Speaker 6: like we get South Beach. Sorry and Drew, baby, I
- 11:57Speaker 6: could see him fireing up like a Celara.
- 12:00Speaker 1: Oh yeah, the ones right out of my mouth, this
- 12:03Speaker 1: Alara four right convertible.
- 12:07Speaker 6: Yeah, well, listen if second car, if summer car armor
- 12:11Speaker 6: ever exists. I'll let you guys know that things went well,
- 12:14Speaker 6: all right, but.
- 12:16Speaker 1: Life started turning up.
- 12:17Speaker 6: Not only did Yannis Drew say that he's not getting
- 12:19Speaker 6: traded to the deadline, he might designed the two different
- 12:22Speaker 6: extensions that he could. Oh, yesterday was fun right away
- 12:25Speaker 6: after two o'clock, I was consuming as much of the
- 12:28Speaker 6: national media as I could. I tapped in with the
- 12:31Speaker 6: boys on YouTube and it was phenomenal as well. But
- 12:34Speaker 6: I enjoyed Drew getting not Mia Kulpas, but just immediate
- 12:39Speaker 6: pivots like we expected there would be too.
- 12:42Speaker 1: Well, this is just getting pushed back. It's just getting
- 12:44Speaker 1: pushed back. It's just getting pushed back.
- 12:46Speaker 6: The comparisons of the different type of divorce divorce proceedings
- 12:51Speaker 6: on first things first, that they fired up like a
- 12:53Speaker 6: twenty eight and a thirty two year old kid, or
- 12:56Speaker 6: the reason why you're staying together but you live in
- 12:58Speaker 6: separate bedrooms. I don't know that there's quite an understanding nationally,
- 13:03Speaker 6: and I understand. I guess it isn't surprising as to
- 13:06Speaker 6: what those quotes meant to Eric name and Jim Osarski,
- 13:10Speaker 6: to the relationship that the city has with him. There
- 13:14Speaker 6: were a lot of people nationally that thought that Bucks
- 13:16Speaker 6: fans would be disappointed they didn't make a trade, totally
- 13:19Speaker 6: missing the mark on the celebration.
- 13:21Speaker 1: I don't understand.
- 13:23Speaker 5: They don't understand the ethos that you'd rather lose with
- 13:26Speaker 5: Giannis than win without.
- 13:28Speaker 6: Him, which is something billion I started debating and didn't
- 13:31Speaker 6: really finish.
- 13:32Speaker 1: I guess, yeah, and I still don't about it.
- 13:34Speaker 5: I don't know if if I totally agree with it, Drew,
- 13:37Speaker 5: But yeah, I don't think a lot of people fully
- 13:39Speaker 5: under fully grasp that theory. Yeah, I don't think they
- 13:41Speaker 5: do either. Now question, there's a lot of stuff to
- 13:44Speaker 5: get to today. By the way, it's the Friday before
- 13:47Speaker 5: the Super Bowl. We have talked a lot of Super Bowl.
- 13:50Speaker 5: We had the MVP and the awards last night, the honors,
- 13:52Speaker 5: got that to talk about. It's also happy anniversary boys
- 13:57Speaker 5: fifteen years ago thirty one to twenty five Packers.
- 13:59Speaker 1: Over that makes me happy and said the same time
- 14:03Speaker 1: ago years ago today that much of life is past.
- 14:06Speaker 5: Fifteenth anniversary man of the Packers victory in Super Bowl
- 14:10Speaker 5: forty five and the big deal that.
- 14:12Speaker 1: Much of life is passed.
- 14:13Speaker 5: Yeah, and you talk about the the best times of
- 14:16Speaker 5: a sports fandom, sixteen year old Bill Schmidt's Oh, that's it.
- 14:20Speaker 1: We talked about eight to thirteen. Right at the edge.
- 14:24Speaker 5: You're you're at the edge, but you're it's a crowning.
- 14:26Speaker 5: It's a little bit better because you can get out
- 14:27Speaker 5: and enjoy. Get out to enjoy a little bit more.
- 14:30Speaker 5: Try to shut up the young lady at the lunch
- 14:32Speaker 5: table that said, on Tuesday, after the Packers won the
- 14:35Speaker 5: Super Bowl, so what would that have been February eighth?
- 14:38Speaker 1: She said, what's the big deal? And everyone keep talking
- 14:40Speaker 1: about the Packers? They won the super Bowl?
- 14:41Speaker 6: Okay, yeah, yeah, sit down and listen, young lady, We're
- 14:45Speaker 6: going to tell you and understand exactly why that's important
- 14:48Speaker 6: for Vince Lombardi's trophies.
- 14:49Speaker 1: That title time.
- 14:50Speaker 6: She said, what's the big deal? Won the super Bowl?
- 14:52Speaker 6: I get it, they won the super Bowl, But like,
- 14:54Speaker 6: are we gonna move on?
- 14:55Speaker 1: What's the big deal? What's the big deal? What's the
- 14:58Speaker 1: big deal?
- 14:59Speaker 6: I just you know, if I a million dollars in
- 15:01Speaker 6: the in the in my pocket, Like, what are you
- 15:02Speaker 6: talking about?
- 15:03Speaker 1: What's the big deal? Just want a Lombardi?
- 15:06Speaker 5: So we're gonna talk about that. But question number one
- 15:09Speaker 5: has to do with yesterday and what Billy was alluding
- 15:11Speaker 5: to it is, I'm gonna give you. I'm gonna give
- 15:15Speaker 5: you the candidates and you tell me the category.
- 15:18Speaker 1: M hm oh uh oh.
- 15:22Speaker 5: Tyrese Haliburton, Indiana Pacers, Ben Johnson.
- 15:29Speaker 1: Chicago Bears.
- 15:30Speaker 5: Yeah, Craig Council, Chicago Cubs and Sham's Sharania.
- 15:42Speaker 1: It's it's who's public enemy number one? Right now? Billisconsin
- 15:46Speaker 1: sports fans? Who is it?
- 15:48Speaker 5: Because Tyrese has been hurt, he's kind of like backshelf
- 15:51Speaker 5: now and it's like the pain has gone.
- 15:53Speaker 1: From those losses. I've been trying to think, like who
- 15:57Speaker 1: was For a while.
- 15:58Speaker 5: It was LaRussa we hated, and it was you know whoever?
- 16:02Speaker 1: You know, Who's Who's who do you hate? From the
- 16:04Speaker 1: vikings we talk about all the time.
- 16:05Speaker 5: We love koc, We like Florida, respect the hell out
- 16:08Speaker 5: of all of anybody on there.
- 16:10Speaker 1: Russ Harden, J J.
- 16:12Speaker 6: McCarthy almost just feel bad. I don't hate mister Griddy.
- 16:15Speaker 6: I mean he's just he's a great receiver.
- 16:17Speaker 5: Justin Jefferson, he's kind of you know when he's you
- 16:19Speaker 5: like him dancing on you.
- 16:20Speaker 1: But there's number one. Yeah, there's is more than the
- 16:23Speaker 1: logo number one. It used to be tom Izzo.
- 16:26Speaker 5: Now he's like everybody's grandpa and he's like, now, who
- 16:30Speaker 5: is it?
- 16:31Speaker 1: It might be.
- 16:31Speaker 6: Sham's champs might have moved past Craig Council at least
- 16:34Speaker 6: right now, Shams found himself on the Mount Rushmore. He
- 16:37Speaker 6: found himself definitely firmly in the top five.
- 16:41Speaker 1: I think maybe if there would be one.
- 16:42Speaker 6: Other submission, there would be like an emeritis version of
- 16:45Speaker 6: the LA Dodgers, right like, I don't hate show, Hey,
- 16:48Speaker 6: I actually love watching him.
- 16:50Speaker 5: Yeah, even them. It's kind of like the Vikings thing.
- 16:52Speaker 5: It's like just respect. I don't think Dave Roberts we
- 16:54Speaker 5: hated Chris Taylor from.
- 16:56Speaker 6: I'm Gonna Throw Yeah, I'm gonna throw Chris Taylor in there.
- 16:59Speaker 6: I'm gonna throw Chris tayl Learn there and.
- 17:00Speaker 1: Acts like he's still on the team. I hate that
- 17:03Speaker 1: handsome devil.
- 17:04Speaker 5: But for for Shams, Drew Armond and I are going
- 17:08Speaker 5: to disagree.
- 17:09Speaker 1: I don't put Tyres at the top.
- 17:11Speaker 6: I also still can't get over the fact that he's
- 17:13Speaker 6: from Wisconsin. It's fun to watch him in the NBA.
- 17:15Speaker 6: That's fair point like that that he won't be number one.
- 17:19Speaker 6: Ben Johnson hard to take off the list right now
- 17:22Speaker 6: in the mix, especially when I was getting to hear
- 17:24Speaker 6: some of the quotes from Jordan Love making the rounds
- 17:26Speaker 6: yesterday at Super Bowl Radio Row and putting a little
- 17:29Speaker 6: bit of his own spin on some bulletin board material
- 17:32Speaker 6: for that rivalry, But Sham's gonna be right there at
- 17:35Speaker 6: the top of the list, right near the top.
- 17:36Speaker 1: Of the list.
- 17:37Speaker 5: I mean, the Brewers beat the Cubs in the playoffs,
- 17:40Speaker 5: it's like the still hate him.
- 17:42Speaker 1: But you know that's that's Wayne. No, I'm excited he everything.
- 17:47Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 17:48Speaker 5: Actually I'm excited for Craig to come into American Family
- 17:51Speaker 5: Field this year because I'm excited to see as many
- 17:53Speaker 5: cell phone celebrations.
- 17:55Speaker 6: Shams would be up there. And I will tell you
- 17:57Speaker 6: the chat. Has anybody wanted to watch the NBA celebrity
- 18:01Speaker 6: basketball any more than a week from today?
- 18:05Speaker 1: Something's got to happen, and Giannis has a sense of humor, so.
- 18:08Speaker 6: He's gonna do like Giannis is gonna do something even
- 18:10Speaker 6: if it's not serious like he because Giannis is a
- 18:12Speaker 6: sense of humor and he knows what's going on, and
- 18:14Speaker 6: he's a troll, right I'm so I'm.
- 18:16Speaker 1: Saying he'll do something funny.
- 18:17Speaker 6: And the thing was, Sham's really quick before we get
- 18:19Speaker 6: because I know we gotta get this stuff, and even
- 18:21Speaker 6: Thomas is called, at least we'll get to a call phone.
- 18:23Speaker 1: At some point.
- 18:25Speaker 6: It is easier to build up this sort of feeling
- 18:28Speaker 6: about Sham's knowing where he grew up.
- 18:30Speaker 1: He grew up in the North side of the Chicago.
- 18:34Speaker 6: I in my head, this is the way I You know,
- 18:36Speaker 6: I've been battling with the eighth Graators from Palatine for weeks. Us.
- 18:40Speaker 6: You guys know, I've been battling with the Buffalo Grove Dorks.
- 18:43Speaker 6: It's easy for me to in my head say this
- 18:46Speaker 6: is nothing more than the adult version, adult successful version
- 18:50Speaker 6: of that kid that would be a troll to me
- 18:53Speaker 6: on Twitter from New Trier High School. You know where
- 18:56Speaker 6: he's from. Where by the Way is. It's where they
- 18:58Speaker 6: shot Its part of home alone by the way. So
- 19:00Speaker 6: there you go, and part of me in my head
- 19:02Speaker 6: can build up that like little villain to say, why
- 19:04Speaker 6: that's all he's doing. This is just trying to clown
- 19:06Speaker 6: for me. He's just doing this because he wants to troll.
- 19:09Speaker 6: You know, He's just like Adam Rank He's just trying
- 19:11Speaker 6: to needle Backer fans.
- 19:12Speaker 1: So that that's that's it's easy for me to build
- 19:15Speaker 1: that in my head.
- 19:15Speaker 6: As unfair as that might be, that can always be
- 19:19Speaker 6: part of it. I don't know a lot of people
- 19:20Speaker 6: realize that that he's from Chicago, so that's just part
- 19:24Speaker 6: of it, all.
- 19:24Speaker 5: Right, Thomas and the cross is up early on the
- 19:26Speaker 5: Nicola dot com talk and text line.

- 20:32Speaker 1: Harman and.

- 20:48Speaker 1: Grandpa that you don't have to pay out of college yes,
- 20:52Speaker 1: that that is it. That is a thousand.
- 20:54Speaker 5: Percent the best one one that someone in your family
- 20:57Speaker 5: hands down to you that you don't have to pay
- 20:59Speaker 5: for that you'd have to put a lot of insurance
- 21:01Speaker 5: on you don't need the you don't need collision on it.
- 21:03Speaker 5: You just get liability. That's the one time. Yeah, that
- 21:06Speaker 5: was the car. That was That was the car I
- 21:08Speaker 5: had a freshman year in college. Yep, and that was
- 21:10Speaker 5: the one that ended up in the junk pile in McHenry.
- 21:12Speaker 6: Illanhis see again, like you get those times and you
- 21:15Speaker 6: get that, yet then you do have to find maybe
- 21:18Speaker 6: that Hondi City College.
- 21:19Speaker 1: That was the right one to college.
- 21:21Speaker 5: I lived on the east side of Milwaukee, and I
- 21:23Speaker 5: was working at I got a job in college at
- 21:25Speaker 5: the newspaper, so I was working downtown. And when I
- 21:27Speaker 5: finally decided needed a car, my mom had one.
- 21:31Speaker 1: And I didn't.
- 21:35Speaker 5: It wasn't intentional, but I told my mom, yeah, I'm
- 21:37Speaker 5: thinking about getting a motorcycle because that'll be cheap and
- 21:40Speaker 5: gas on it. I was saying about getting a cycle,
- 21:42Speaker 5: and then she's like, no, I'm giving you this car
- 21:44Speaker 5: to to prevent me from buying a motorcycle.
- 21:47Speaker 1: She gave me a car now beige and brown Ford Granada.
- 21:54Speaker 1: It was, it was.
- 21:55Speaker 5: It was two thousand pounds of birth control, but it was.
- 21:59Speaker 5: But it got from point A to point B. And
- 22:01Speaker 5: that's probably when I lost my any notion that I
- 22:03Speaker 5: was a car needed a cool car. I mean, that's it.
- 22:06Speaker 6: I'm kind of lying because I didn't do it myself
- 22:08Speaker 6: because I wanted something kind of cool. But if you're
- 22:10Speaker 6: being smart, you gotta go with the you know, the
- 22:13Speaker 6: the Toyotas, the Hondas. I got a Kia. I'm hoping,
- 22:16Speaker 6: you know, you can get economical with it. It should last.
- 22:19Speaker 6: That's the way it's do it. You know that'll get
- 22:21Speaker 6: you any dates? Though, Yeah, I don't know. Listen, my
- 22:24Speaker 6: Sonata of college got me a couple of days.
- 22:26Speaker 1: You go, well, I thought it also got me.
- 22:28Speaker 5: A date with the Key boys when they Jack didn't
- 22:30Speaker 5: crashed it.
- 22:31Speaker 6: So far, I've avoided it. However, I think you got
- 22:34Speaker 6: the date, Billy.
- 22:35Speaker 1: I would go. I would go Sonata. I'd go something
- 22:38Speaker 1: four doors.
- 22:39Speaker 5: Because Thomas, your boys are gonna want to.
- 22:41Speaker 6: Come visit you, and you're gonna want it. You're gonna
- 22:43Speaker 6: need some room back there. Two doors, says you're not
- 22:46Speaker 6: ready for not ready to settle down. Four Doors says
- 22:49Speaker 6: you're here to stay. You're a solid, dependable cat, and
- 22:53Speaker 6: I trust you on that deal. And if you're getting
- 22:54Speaker 6: out of college, you're still living at home for a bit,
- 22:56Speaker 6: you need to have big back seats, right all right
- 22:58Speaker 6: for groceries.
- 22:59Speaker 1: Super Bowl plan, we'll talk about that.
- 23:01Speaker 5: It's the anniversary fifteen years since Super Bowl forty five.

- 23:19Speaker 5: off on a crawler from Armand Today it's the Huddle
- 23:21Speaker 5: Fox Sports Radio, wiscond.
- 23:24Speaker 4: Oh, No, I was just talking about. You know, he's
- 23:26Speaker 4: gonna coach the celebrity game, right you guys see that. No, No,
- 23:33Speaker 4: he did inform me that he's going to put shams
- 23:37Speaker 4: on the trading block today and he's just gonna listen
- 23:41Speaker 4: to offers. So I'm just gonna go make that announcement
- 23:44Speaker 4: right now.
- 23:47Speaker 5: The Bucks trolling chums Sharania from Espno good job by
- 23:53Speaker 5: Buck's Social there.
- 23:55Speaker 6: Yeah, And I was, like I said, I was, I
- 23:57Speaker 6: was watching a number of different shows somewhere as like, Wow,
- 24:00Speaker 6: I thought the Bucks were a little light. They just
- 24:02Speaker 6: hit the yawn emoji. No, they were fine. They knew
- 24:04Speaker 6: we were all chilling. They knew we were all okay.
- 24:06Speaker 6: Uh Now the interesting one we'd love to play. Giannis
- 24:08Speaker 6: is a little not safe for work on the Yannis
- 24:12Speaker 6: put out as the Wolf of Wall Street clip. But
- 24:14Speaker 6: I think everybody loves when the caption says, legends don't chase,
- 24:19Speaker 6: they attract. I love that which gives you hope that
- 24:22Speaker 6: he might be have something else cooking here. It might
- 24:24Speaker 6: not just be I'm staying for another half here to
- 24:26Speaker 6: play out the string, right, Billy, I.
- 24:28Speaker 5: Mean that's what that would That's what I would hope,
- 24:30Speaker 5: That's what I would.
- 24:30Speaker 6: Think that now I don't and and will we got
- 24:33Speaker 6: a lot of time to do this.
- 24:34Speaker 1: We got a lot of time, We got a lot
- 24:36Speaker 1: of off season.
- 24:37Speaker 6: I still and potentially yesterday drew strangely enough, guys, I
- 24:42Speaker 6: think yesterday I might even more so be in the
- 24:45Speaker 6: camp that they should trade him in the offseason, right,
- 24:48Speaker 6: like and I.
- 24:50Speaker 1: Said that when Dame got hurt, might as well just
- 24:52Speaker 1: tear it down to him, seeing.
- 24:53Speaker 6: What packages might be available again. And like, after teams
- 24:57Speaker 6: think about how much better they could have been in
- 24:59Speaker 6: the season with Giannis if they don't get home. I'm
- 25:02Speaker 6: thinking Houston and San Antonio the two teams that we
- 25:04Speaker 6: were looking at with the actual packages, not Golden State
- 25:08Speaker 6: hesitant to give up a thirty seven year old three
- 25:11Speaker 6: weeks off of a torn ACL That was an embarrassing offer.
- 25:14Speaker 6: Like those were objectively horrendous trade offers for a two
- 25:19Speaker 6: time MVP. But I think you're gonna get better ones
- 25:21Speaker 6: in the offseason. So I'm not positive that he's in
- 25:25Speaker 6: Milwaukee for the next three to four years.
- 25:27Speaker 1: I don't know that's the best thing.
- 25:28Speaker 6: But I love that he's still on the squad going
- 25:31Speaker 6: into exactly and now and now I was all on
- 25:35Speaker 6: team put him in bubble wrap, send him to grease.
- 25:37Speaker 6: Now it's like, oh, we might as well see him
- 25:39Speaker 6: play a little bit more, And like case, you don't
- 25:42Speaker 6: want his last game to be him a limp and off,
- 25:43Speaker 6: but you have to be realistic about their best chances
- 25:46Speaker 6: right now going forward with him to build something around
- 25:48Speaker 6: him is to acquire ping pong balls.
- 25:50Speaker 1: And I hate saying that. I don't they like taking,
- 25:52Speaker 1: but that is the reality of it.
- 25:54Speaker 6: You have to try and do the best you can
- 25:56Speaker 6: to try and spike a top three pick if you can. Right,
- 26:00Speaker 6: maybe they did a bad job of doing that by
- 26:02Speaker 6: getting Cole Anthony off of the basketball team, like he
- 26:05Speaker 6: seemed like somebody that helped.
- 26:07Speaker 1: You in that regard. But I don't know that they're.
- 26:09Speaker 6: Gonna like have to outwardly try to not win a
- 26:12Speaker 6: whole lot of games. Might be bad enough anyway, might
- 26:15Speaker 6: just be bad enough to stay where they are and
- 26:17Speaker 6: be in the top ten.
- 26:19Speaker 1: Play Uzman. Yeah, Harmon gets another player named Ooz that
- 26:23Speaker 1: he can I don't know that I'm here. I don't
- 26:25Speaker 1: know that.
- 26:25Speaker 6: Maybe Pete Nance's is a part of Team Tank. He
- 26:27Speaker 6: might be too good to be a part of Team Tank.
- 26:30Speaker 6: Could be the Knight's gonna be a tough night for
- 26:32Speaker 6: Team Tank because the Pacers might be worse than you.
- 26:35Speaker 1: But it might be the case. Yes, but uh, this.
- 26:38Speaker 5: Is gonna be This is gonna be time where you
- 26:40Speaker 5: can go and enjoy the arena. You hit the secondary
- 26:42Speaker 5: market for tonight's game.
- 26:44Speaker 6: You haven't seen a Friday night at five ser for
- 26:47Speaker 6: him with those kind of prices since the days when
- 26:50Speaker 6: armand Sarian was patrolling buckheads after the game. So I
- 26:53Speaker 6: would enjoy it. I would enjoy it for the next
- 26:55Speaker 6: couple or not wrong eight seven seven seven nine four
- 26:59Speaker 6: dot com talk in text line. We have Mike in
- 27:02Speaker 6: Shorewood on the line. Mike, you're in the huddle.
- 27:05Speaker 2: Good morning, fellas. How do you guys are doing?
- 27:06Speaker 1: We're awesome, man.
- 27:08Speaker 2: Good good talking about the Honest situation. First off, before
- 27:13Speaker 2: I get into the take, why is the shams and
- 27:16Speaker 2: even Wendy two guys, we are normally reliable with their sources.
- 27:19Speaker 2: How are their sources so off on this? I know normally,
- 27:22Speaker 2: like shefter, the agents feed them information. So is Do
- 27:26Speaker 2: you think it's Honest's agents wanting him to get out
- 27:28Speaker 2: of Milwaukee and Giannis wants to stay? I think that's
- 27:31Speaker 2: the differential opinion. I think Jannis really wants to stay,
- 27:35Speaker 2: but I think the agents want them out of Milwaukee's
- 27:37Speaker 2: the way I'm reading it to them.
- 27:39Speaker 5: That's why I don't think the agents now, I think
- 27:42Speaker 5: they get their info from the teams that wants more
- 27:45Speaker 5: than the bucks.
- 27:46Speaker 1: The bucks are pretty buttoned up. And I do believe
- 27:49Speaker 1: Horse is on the phone with those guys a lot.
- 27:51Speaker 6: Yeah, And I believes agents have done what they're supposed
- 27:54Speaker 6: to and poke around to try to drum up and
- 27:57Speaker 6: see what the market would be. But I I don't
- 28:00Speaker 6: believe they have any uh, any reason to need him
- 28:05Speaker 6: out elsewhere, because he can make the same amount of
- 28:07Speaker 6: money for those guys in Milwaukee that he wanted in
- 28:09Speaker 6: New York.
- 28:10Speaker 1: So I think I don't know that. I just take
- 28:12Speaker 1: Janis at face value. Two things are true.
- 28:14Speaker 5: He wants to stay in Milwaukee, and he wants to
- 28:16Speaker 5: compete for championships, like if he can do it here,
- 28:19Speaker 5: he told their name, I'll hang up the phone right now.
- 28:21Speaker 1: A million.
- 28:22Speaker 6: Yeah, So he talked for the first part of the question,
- 28:25Speaker 6: though it is It is unique, though that that you're
- 28:28Speaker 6: hearing such different conversations from those guys than everything else
- 28:32Speaker 6: that has been reported. And some of it might also
- 28:34Speaker 6: be it fits more of what they needed.
- 28:37Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 28:37Speaker 1: People watching what I know their NBA Today show yesterday
- 28:40Speaker 1: during the trade.
- 28:40Speaker 2: Deadline from guys that I know the work in the
- 28:43Speaker 2: media that typically the agents, the schefter, that's why they
- 28:45Speaker 2: break the news story first.
- 28:46Speaker 1: They get from them.
- 28:47Speaker 2: But talking about going forward, I look, honest, I'm glad
- 28:51Speaker 2: that for twenty one brought us the title, but they
- 28:54Speaker 2: got to really evaluate.
- 28:55Speaker 1: This off season. Horse.
- 28:56Speaker 2: He's got to talk to Giannis and his team do
- 28:59Speaker 2: you want to be part of this franchise? If not
- 29:00Speaker 2: when the when the draft comes up, because I think
- 29:03Speaker 2: they're probably gonna take it in and chain the rest
- 29:05Speaker 2: of the season. I highly doubt, borring some miraculous run,
- 29:08Speaker 2: they're eve gonna make the playoffs or even the play
- 29:10Speaker 2: in so they desperately need to keep their pick. They're
- 29:12Speaker 2: probably gonna get their lottery pick, which they need in
- 29:14Speaker 2: the in the deep draft like this, so I think
- 29:17Speaker 2: they need to sit them down, say do you want
- 29:18Speaker 2: to be part of that? If not, then they got
- 29:20Speaker 2: to get the mother low for him. And I think
- 29:23Speaker 2: waiting til the offseas is better because there's gonna be
- 29:25Speaker 2: some teams that are gonna be disappointing that they're gonna
- 29:28Speaker 2: come up short in their playoff runs, and teams are
- 29:30Speaker 2: desperate to win titles. So I think the teams like Miami, Minnesota,
- 29:34Speaker 2: even the Warriors, so I think they're gonna up their
- 29:36Speaker 2: offers probably four to five first round picks plus young talent.
- 29:39Speaker 2: So I think going forward, guys, that's probably the the
- 29:43Speaker 2: map roadmap that the bus has got.
- 29:45Speaker 5: To take, as Jim, when you're trading a sixty three
- 29:51Speaker 5: million dollar guy, it's hard to do it in a
- 29:54Speaker 5: couple of weeks.
- 29:54Speaker 1: A lot of stuff going on, and the gas trade.
- 29:57Speaker 5: If Gis is traded, the idea that it's going to
- 29:59Speaker 5: be one team like Bucks and and Team X San
- 30:03Speaker 5: Antonio or Houston make the deal without like three other
- 30:06Speaker 5: teams like you just saw to trade Nigel Hayes, like
- 30:09Speaker 5: it was a three team bank shot.
- 30:11Speaker 1: Right for Paul Anthony to.
- 30:12Speaker 6: Leave, Yeah, slide some contracts around and there's gonna be
- 30:15Speaker 6: all of that.
- 30:16Speaker 1: There's gonna be I want this inspiring.
- 30:17Speaker 5: They get this guy going here, we got these picks
- 30:19Speaker 5: going here, we gotta swap here. It'd be I say
- 30:21Speaker 5: the over under on teams involved in the as trade
- 30:23Speaker 5: is four.
- 30:25Speaker 1: Yeah, And that's part of the right. That's part of
- 30:26Speaker 1: the reason.
- 30:27Speaker 6: That's the idea why they might not trade in Ministery, right,
- 30:30Speaker 6: is that they might get a better offer in the summer.
- 30:32Speaker 6: They will like will that is that is a guarantee,
- 30:36Speaker 6: And because guys what you know, Mike hit right there.
- 30:38Speaker 1: I just more picked the one teams have another pick Drew.
- 30:41Speaker 6: You also right now, tell me what is desperate about
- 30:46Speaker 6: san Antonio beating Oklahoma City three times? This here not
- 30:49Speaker 6: they believe they can beat them four times? Right. Houston
- 30:53Speaker 6: just went all in to grab kd. They want to
- 30:55Speaker 6: see what they can do with their squad. Denver knows
- 30:58Speaker 6: that they have one of the best players, if not
- 30:59Speaker 6: the best player.
- 31:00Speaker 1: In the world. They're not desperate to do anything.
- 31:02Speaker 6: The Lakers and Timberwolves, no doubt they'll be in the mix.
- 31:05Speaker 6: But also you allow all of these teams to have
- 31:09Speaker 6: one more year of disappointment and heartbreak and thinking and saying, yeah,
- 31:14Speaker 6: actually we're fine moving off of I don't know Shoon
- 31:18Speaker 6: in Houston, and he's the centerpiece, not one player in there.
- 31:22Speaker 6: I appreciate Jade McDaniels for all of his efforts and
- 31:26Speaker 6: battles on the defensive end as he was trying to
- 31:27Speaker 6: lock up Kevin Durant. No one sees future perennial All
- 31:32Speaker 6: Star in Jayden McDaniels. You could see it with a
- 31:35Speaker 6: couple of guys that would be offered up like a
- 31:37Speaker 6: Dylan Harper like a castle from San Antonio if in
- 31:41Speaker 6: the offseason they become a part of this. But the
- 31:44Speaker 6: teams that were here you didn't hear of in the
- 31:47Speaker 6: offseason trade conversations because guys, these packages were not even
- 31:52Speaker 6: close to as good as the ones they could have
- 31:54Speaker 6: gotten in the Onnack Like, I appreciate them surveying the market.
- 31:58Speaker 6: The reason why the counter offers probably shut off was
- 32:01Speaker 6: because the teams that you're interested in their assets, they
- 32:04Speaker 6: didn't harn't playing ball yet with it.
- 32:06Speaker 1: They're not having enough. They want to know what they
- 32:08Speaker 1: can get.
- 32:08Speaker 6: And I love that John hors and the Buck said, no,
- 32:10Speaker 6: we're not your doormat. So if you're if this is
- 32:12Speaker 6: all the garbage you're gonna send us with an offer,
- 32:14Speaker 6: we're just saying.
- 32:15Speaker 1: No, good luck. You can say we weren't serious.
- 32:18Speaker 6: All you want, I can say you weren't serious with
- 32:19Speaker 6: your offer to because you want to see, understandably so
- 32:22Speaker 6: what your team can do this year in an open,
- 32:24Speaker 6: open play, I mean not open. I mean Oklahoma City
- 32:27Speaker 6: has something to say about that, but they believe they
- 32:28Speaker 6: can make a run with Yeah, to.
- 32:31Speaker 5: Mike's point, and I'm not this isn't coming from a
- 32:33Speaker 5: place of jealousy or anger. And we did joke about
- 32:36Speaker 5: Seanas being on the current mount rushmore of hated people
- 32:39Speaker 5: in Wisconsin sports. But uh, those guys are you know,
- 32:44Speaker 5: great reporters. They make the cash. They're paid to forward
- 32:47Speaker 5: texts like the whoever can, whoever has the fastest thumbs
- 32:50Speaker 5: is the guy with the scoop.
- 32:51Speaker 1: Well, and that's the tough thing, Drew. It's not like
- 32:53Speaker 1: it's not the race to be right, it's the race
- 32:55Speaker 1: to be first. But that's the thing.
- 32:58Speaker 5: What even in this lurry of all these trades that happened,
- 33:02Speaker 5: were any of them foreshadowed? Did you hear anything about
- 33:06Speaker 5: those teams talking No, No one knew Jaron Jackson Junior
- 33:10Speaker 5: was available.
- 33:10Speaker 6: He's a reigning Defensive Player of the Year, I'm not mistake.
- 33:13Speaker 6: And then he gets traded.
- 33:14Speaker 5: He's like, oh wow, And then you get you get
- 33:17Speaker 5: flowers for if you're the first person to get that
- 33:19Speaker 5: on Twitter because you got the text from the agent
- 33:21Speaker 5: or the GM and you were able to type it
- 33:23Speaker 5: in and put it in your Twitter first. That's what
- 33:26Speaker 5: these guys are paid for. That's what they traffick in.
- 33:28Speaker 5: Are they are they stenographers or reporters?
- 33:31Speaker 6: He's doing his job, but the job is different than
- 33:34Speaker 6: I think what we're looking at, like what you're you're
- 33:36Speaker 6: also saying, Drew is like having some leads on it.
- 33:39Speaker 6: That is what those guys dispel notions of when you
- 33:42Speaker 6: read it on Hoops Height, right, like when you hear
- 33:45Speaker 6: it when you hear it on different NBA Central, when
- 33:48Speaker 6: all these guys are are moving around, was they're only
- 33:52Speaker 6: they're only usually quote tweeting speculation.
- 33:54Speaker 5: For Moast, what was the biggest trade of the cycle
- 33:57Speaker 5: was Harden because we started to hear hard in like
- 33:58Speaker 5: a couple hours before it happen, right, or maybe maybe
- 34:03Speaker 5: all the all the guards that the Jaron Jackson like
- 34:05Speaker 5: the biggest ship to fall in this and Jackson would
- 34:09Speaker 5: be the two. Yeah, and you didn't really hear that.
- 34:11Speaker 6: Ristal Well knew comingos on the Block getting Ristal You're right,
- 34:15Speaker 6: I mean, I agree, but Kaminga, to your point has
- 34:18Speaker 6: been on the on the block for what a year
- 34:21Speaker 6: and a half. A year and a half, I didn't
- 34:24Speaker 6: realize where he was going to get dealt was. Ultimately
- 34:27Speaker 6: even in the conversation.
- 34:28Speaker 5: Is if and Shams and Wendy spent so much time
- 34:30Speaker 5: on TV and I granted, I'm not slagging on their
- 34:32Speaker 5: work ethic or anything, but if they didn't, if one
- 34:36Speaker 5: of those guys had Mono or COVID or was laid up, like,
- 34:39Speaker 5: how would our lives as fans and the information were
- 34:41Speaker 5: getting be diminished?
- 34:43Speaker 1: Diana Church, what do they add? Calls in church? Church?
- 34:50Speaker 1: What is my light?
- 34:51Speaker 6: It's what they added, segments on the TV just coal into.
- 34:54Speaker 1: The furnace of keeping the socks alive. But they didn't
- 34:57Speaker 1: add any nuance or in well I.
- 35:00Speaker 6: Get at the risk of getting preachy out and state
- 35:02Speaker 6: of Mike. This is why you invest in local like journalism.
- 35:05Speaker 6: I mean, I mean Jim O's asking Eric name wasted
- 35:08Speaker 6: those guys this whole time Ian and they got better scoops.
- 35:10Speaker 1: They got individual quotes from Giannis.
- 35:12Speaker 6: They were telling Bucks fans what you needed to know,
- 35:14Speaker 6: more than more than.
- 35:15Speaker 1: What Shams and Wendy did. I mean, that's just what
- 35:17Speaker 1: it is.
- 35:17Speaker 6: I want of those guys got a phone call to
- 35:20Speaker 6: make sure he had the same story and something a
- 35:22Speaker 6: little different for his articles. So traditionally, you know, drew
- 35:28Speaker 6: local reporters, that's their role compared to national guys.
- 35:31Speaker 1: So they should get that.
- 35:32Speaker 6: So that's why, you know, in the world where everything
- 35:35Speaker 6: newspapers are crumbling and all these things, invest in local
- 35:38Speaker 6: reporting and local journalism and defend these guys and support
- 35:41Speaker 6: these guys because that's where you get the info from.
- 35:43Speaker 5: Good job, and that's boots on the grip.
- 35:47Speaker 1: Told us like that.
- 35:49Speaker 5: He just happened to bump into Giannis and got the story.
- 35:52Speaker 5: And then Giannis gave him that.
- 35:53Speaker 1: He's like, oh, I.
- 35:53Speaker 6: Better take care of Eric too, Better take care of Eric. Yeah,
- 35:56Speaker 6: Gianna is a real one. He knows, and that also
- 35:59Speaker 6: does clear up. You know, Arman and I were a
- 36:00Speaker 6: little worried, not because we love Eric's name.
- 36:03Speaker 1: Eric name does a great job.
- 36:04Speaker 6: We're a little worried that Giannis and Eric were a
- 36:07Speaker 6: little bit you know, maybe on there after the don't.
- 36:10Speaker 1: Know, after the Eric.
- 36:11Speaker 6: Do you get a promotion every year that shows how
- 36:15Speaker 6: close they are, Yeah, Eddie, and they don't want to take.
- 36:20Speaker 1: What do you want to just look at the house
- 36:22Speaker 1: not long ago.
- 36:22Speaker 5: He's like he was talking about something like Eric, Eric
- 36:24Speaker 5: might have an old fashioned or something.
- 36:26Speaker 1: He threw that out there. He knew's gonna.
- 36:30Speaker 6: Write Gianni's book and in forty years No, probably, I
- 36:34Speaker 6: don't know.
- 36:36Speaker 1: I got a feeling there's a couples.
- 36:38Speaker 6: I got a feeling there's a couple of Yannis books
- 36:40Speaker 6: coming up. I said, I even said, it's a movie.
- 36:42Speaker 6: Well I think, but yeah, I saw, not that I
- 36:47Speaker 6: want anything to ever change, like, but I saw this
- 36:49Speaker 6: morning really quick. So the Bees did a little YouTube
- 36:51Speaker 6: of Scottie Pippen going through all his old memorabilia in
- 36:53Speaker 6: a barn on his farm, Like, I can't wait for
- 36:56Speaker 6: that stage of life with like where Eric name is
- 36:58Speaker 6: gonna have to sit down with the ass to go
- 36:59Speaker 6: through all of his memories. He's got a big barn
- 37:01Speaker 6: full of memorabilia because I think Scotty's selling some of
- 37:04Speaker 6: this stuff now, Scottie Pippin, had.
- 37:05Speaker 1: You been on anything? Yeah right, yeah right, I'm in that.
- 37:08Speaker 5: Mix eight seven four one ninety seven three. Matt Miller
- 37:13Speaker 5: joins the party today, Matt Lapey as well.
- 37:15Speaker 1: We're chopping it up. It's a fun Friday in the huddle.
- 37:17Speaker 5: Fox that had ten seventy to my presets a while ago,
- 37:19Speaker 5: and I haven't been flipping down.
- 37:21Speaker 1: There much, but man, it comes in strong even in
- 37:23Speaker 1: parts of Milwaukee.
- 37:24Speaker 6: It's pretty wild, dude. It is at the center of
- 37:26Speaker 6: the state, Yes it is. It is really really impressive.
- 37:29Speaker 6: And I liked our friends supper Club mark because we
- 37:32Speaker 6: again hawking text line never closes Drew right, so we
- 37:34Speaker 6: see all the stuff that happens right afterword on our
- 37:36Speaker 6: guy said, I just I don't love to delay on
- 37:39Speaker 6: the app. But my knowledge of music has improved. It
- 37:42Speaker 6: has never been better. I know the top hits of
- 37:44Speaker 6: every single year. You learn a lot being on the
- 37:46Speaker 6: Apple time that's well played. There's good things to be
- 37:50Speaker 6: able to learn and good.
- 37:50Speaker 1: Things to be able to find out.
- 37:51Speaker 6: Right, you know what Elton John was thinking when he
- 37:53Speaker 6: wrote that album and stuff like that.
- 37:55Speaker 1: Yeah, I love stuff like.
- 37:56Speaker 5: That eight seven seven seven nine four ninety seven three.
- 37:58Speaker 5: This whole thing was shams and this whole cycle of
- 38:02Speaker 5: you know that we're talking about the media churn giving
- 38:04Speaker 5: a little our little take on how the sausage is made.
- 38:06Speaker 1: Right.
- 38:07Speaker 5: But one of the things, this is me being on
- 38:11Speaker 5: the soapbox for a minute. One of the things that
- 38:14Speaker 5: I don't like about sports and fandom and this whole
- 38:18Speaker 5: sports media industrial complex is this whole turn of the
- 38:21Speaker 5: NBA and this season we've been hearing about will Jannis
- 38:24Speaker 5: be traded? Right, Who's gonna get traded. Who's these teams?
- 38:27Speaker 5: We care about Golden State? What's their record? We care
- 38:30Speaker 5: about Miami? Can people tell me who's the coach of
- 38:34Speaker 5: the Detroit Piston Andrew good one?
- 38:36Speaker 1: Andrew?
- 38:37Speaker 6: How many people say Monty Williams this is their best
- 38:39Speaker 6: player and in the NBA.
- 38:43Speaker 1: And what's wrong maybe.
- 38:44Speaker 5: With sports culture and stuff, is that we focus on
- 38:46Speaker 5: a couple of stars. We hear about Ron every night
- 38:49Speaker 5: and stuff. The Pistons two years ago won like fifteen games, yeah,
- 38:54Speaker 5: historically bad. And then Bickerstaff is in there. Their GM
- 38:57Speaker 5: is Trasan Langdon who played at Duke and he's just
- 38:59Speaker 5: the quiet, working and grinding and they're at.
- 39:01Speaker 1: The top of league and no one talks about them.
- 39:03Speaker 1: And Kate Cunningham is their best player, and they got
- 39:05Speaker 1: the Tom.
- 39:06Speaker 5: Smer's number one overall pick. No one talks about them.
- 39:09Speaker 1: No one. And we have people that couldn't name three Pistons.
- 39:12Speaker 5: I went to the Pistons game. I saw them play
- 39:14Speaker 5: in Milwaukee. No one talks about that story. Why because
- 39:19Speaker 5: we only care about the stars and quietly this is
- 39:22Speaker 5: a team like now, okay, see gets some burned because
- 39:25Speaker 5: they find they broke through and one. But the Pistons
- 39:28Speaker 5: are kind of like the next Okay, see like look
- 39:30Speaker 5: what they're doing, and no one talks about, Hey, what
- 39:32Speaker 5: what's going on? They weren't Did anybody mention the Pistons
- 39:34Speaker 5: like adding or doing stuff on the on the roster
- 39:37Speaker 5: or what they're what their goals were?
- 39:39Speaker 1: No, we hear about New York, who's.
- 39:41Speaker 5: Looking up at the Pistons in the east in Boston,
- 39:45Speaker 5: who's looking up also looking out?
- 39:46Speaker 1: What? Why is that? That's why?
- 39:48Speaker 5: To me, it's like it's warped, like we should be
- 39:50Speaker 5: talking about and celebrating what the Pistons are doing and
- 39:53Speaker 5: no one cares. No and Drew, it's it's the it's
- 39:56Speaker 5: the part of where they don't celebrate what actually happens
- 39:58Speaker 5: on the floor because that was then also come to
- 40:01Speaker 5: you have to pay attention to watch a lot of it,
- 40:03Speaker 5: right like you you'd have to be paying attention and
- 40:05Speaker 5: watching and realizing, like, damn, Kate Cunningham is taking that
- 40:08Speaker 5: leap that a number one overall pick kind of does,
- 40:11Speaker 5: and he might be a night, he might be an
- 40:13Speaker 5: MVP right like he he deserves real consideration for it,
- 40:17Speaker 5: even onto like the the Western Conference side, like Phoenix.
- 40:21Speaker 5: People laughed at the fact that they have no picks left.
- 40:25Speaker 6: They gutted their entire roster. They trade all their look
- 40:27Speaker 6: ten games over five hundred in battling for playoff spots
- 40:30Speaker 6: with the teams that they're talking the more most about,
- 40:33Speaker 6: which is the Lakers and whatever Minnesota can do. It's
- 40:37Speaker 6: what's easy is the one that they go and attached
- 40:40Speaker 6: to his stands and what they think their audience is nationally,
- 40:43Speaker 6: which are big markets. But the funny thing is, once
- 40:45Speaker 6: upon a time people looked at Detroit that way.
- 40:47Speaker 1: In the NBA, it was Detroit and it was boss
- 40:50Speaker 1: all that Detroit basketball exactly.
- 40:52Speaker 6: So I think, Billy, you're right about the fact that
- 40:54Speaker 6: people have to watch and people aren't watching as much.
- 40:56Speaker 1: In the NBA they were. That was Siberia.
- 40:58Speaker 5: That was the place you sent where guys went to
- 41:00Speaker 5: their careers to.
- 41:03Speaker 1: Detroit like Troy it was.
- 41:05Speaker 5: But now that's not the case, and no one talks
- 41:07Speaker 5: about it, like why can't we celebrate those stories and
- 41:10Speaker 5: worry about that. Why do we not hear We hear
- 41:12Speaker 5: more about JJ Reddick than we do JB.
- 41:15Speaker 1: Bickerstaff.
- 41:16Speaker 6: And when the Bucks were getting better seventeen eighteen nineteen.
- 41:18Speaker 1: We were fighting that too.
- 41:19Speaker 6: All the time total we were complaining, we're not getting
- 41:21Speaker 6: national up, no one's paying attention. We're winning all these games,
- 41:24Speaker 6: and I guess that's part of what the Pistons are.
- 41:26Speaker 1: Dealing with right now. But they make their way. The
- 41:28Speaker 1: people will talk about that.
- 41:30Speaker 5: Fourteen games and then last year they were like six.
- 41:33Speaker 5: It's a big story in the conference. And now they've
- 41:35Speaker 5: they've taken the step and they're leading, and they've been
- 41:36Speaker 5: leading wire to wire and no one can name three
- 41:39Speaker 5: guys on their team. Yeah, it's but we we do
- 41:42Speaker 5: do it in other sports as well. I mean, think
- 41:44Speaker 5: about one of the teams, that's the two teams that
- 41:45Speaker 5: are in the Super Bowl playing in two days. I mean,
- 41:48Speaker 5: Seattle was almost wired to wire the number one overall
- 41:52Speaker 5: seed in the NFC, and in the middle of November,
- 41:55Speaker 5: I was on the arizonying like, I don't know, they
- 41:57Speaker 5: played a two point game against Philip Rivers and the Colts.
- 42:00Speaker 1: They might be leaking oil. I don't think they've lost even.
- 42:03Speaker 5: Like there's a run there where until you've done it.
- 42:07Speaker 6: Now, it's yeah, but I don't really believe Kate Cunningham
- 42:10Speaker 6: is gonna do in the playffs. I don't really believe
- 42:12Speaker 6: Sam Darnold can do in the playoffs. I mean, there's
- 42:14Speaker 6: not a lot of people that know can name five
- 42:16Speaker 6: players probably on the Patriots, true, they'll know them. Probably
- 42:19Speaker 6: after Sunday they will.
- 42:20Speaker 5: Absolutely all right, we're off and running, shooting shirts are off.
- 42:23Speaker 5: First hour is in the books, it's in the bank
- 42:25Speaker 5: and earning interest. I'd love that. And again, Matt Miller's
- 42:30Speaker 5: going to join the party, talk about music, movies, culture
- 42:33Speaker 5: the halftime show, and then Matt Lapey can I join us?
