  Speaker 3: Uh, you know, gonna try to sneak out, as you know,
• 0:51
  Speaker 3: if I get any free time, I've got to sneak
• 0:52
  Speaker 3: out and play golf. So we are going to play
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: at Old Chatham Wow here in Raleigh, just outside Raleigh,
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: which is a fantastic place looking forward to.
• 1:00
  Speaker 4: I say, oh, I don't know what that is. It
• 1:02
  Speaker 4: just sounds really nice Chatham.
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: No, he texted me that earlier. Yeah, and I have
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: I've never been there. I have friends who have played
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: it and they say it's a magical place.
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: Magical. Yeah, from the minute you get there, and you know,
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: it's great golf course and it's just one of those
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: places too where they do everything right, you know, just
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: the whole the general manager, John Marino, the pros, the
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: everybody there is just fantastic, and a lot of the
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: Carolina Hurricanes play there.
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: Matter of fact, they've had a chance to have a
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: few extra rounds because you know, after they swept the
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: first round, they had a week off, and then after
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: they swept the second round, they had eleven days off.
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: So when I talked to John Marino, I said, you've
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: seen some of the Hurricanes out. They said, yeah, they
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: were actually un here quite a bit because they had
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: a lot of time to kill. They're waiting to find
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: out where they were going to be playing in the
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: next round.
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: Yes, have you mapped out golf in Vegas yet or
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: are we just doing the weak Yes?
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we're still work in progress. Okay, but yeah, we've
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: got at least one good option. We have a couple
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: of extra days there. You know, they moved the series
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: up two days, but it kind of threw off the
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: cadence there. Used to be like we're going to have
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: here game one, a day off, Game two, and then
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: two travel days. But because they moved the schedule up,
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: now the travel days aren't necessarily the travel days like
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: we have Game three in Vegas then there are two
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: days off in Vegas dangerous, yes, and then a game.
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: But those two days off are really good if you
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: want to, you know, grip it and sort of rip it.
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: Yes, if you just go to the Win hotel. I
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: have no idea where you're staying. Ask for fred He's
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: a friend of mine. He runs all the golf there.
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: He will put you out on that.
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: Whatever you want giving up on that is he in
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: the end.
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: You're what do you mean right now?
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: Because let's revisit the I do take time for you,
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: for you and for this group on days went like
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: the National Championship college football game, now's just bad. Yeah,
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: And fellas, did mister Miami not say that he was
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: going to get us a better booth location for the
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: National Championship radio broadcast at the home of Miami Dolphins.
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: I am telling you I gave Taylor that assignment.
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: They were in. We were in this little basket at
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: the minus twenty five yards. Remember when Fernando Mendoza scored
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: that touchdown he ran, he got spun around. That was
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: about a half a mile away from where we were. Yeah,
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: so I'm not reaching out to your guy, Freddie, Frankie,
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: Bobby anywhere.
• 3:28
  Speaker 5: In fact, Sean, he is the king of gestures. He's
• 3:31
  Speaker 5: a great person to tell you something that he's going
• 3:33
  Speaker 5: to do, but then he doesn't do it and then
• 3:35
  Speaker 5: just blames Taylor.
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Taylor, it is naughty. Mikey is noddy.
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: Well, I don't know how Taylor. I gave him two
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: weeks to get it.
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: I'm still waiting. I was still I sat that post
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: in Miami for like three more days waiting, and I
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: gotta tell you, you wouldn't know it was a half
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: mile away by the call. It was awesome, Yes, yes,
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: but you know I was calling it off the TV monitor.
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: So no, Actually, who should I reach out to?
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: I already reached out to him. His name is Fred
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: over at the wind He runs the golf there. He's
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: going to respond to me. By the end of this interview,
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: I will tell you that.
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: That's so nice. That looks like a nice course.
• 4:14
  Speaker 5: Well, while we're piling on Stugatts, you guys know I'm
• 4:17
  Speaker 5: a huge puckhead. Stuart's the Stanley Cup Final, Yes final,
• 4:20
  Speaker 5: Sorry sorry sorry about that. Also, and you guys know
• 4:23
  Speaker 5: I'm a big Panthers fan. And this is I don't
• 4:26
  Speaker 5: think this is hate watching Sean because I hate both sides.
• 4:29
  Speaker 5: I don't know what to do when I can't stand
• 4:31
  Speaker 5: the Carolina Hurricanes, and I also can't stand Vegas who
• 4:34
  Speaker 5: had that six year drought before they won a championship
• 4:37
  Speaker 5: and now they're right back at it. How am I
• 4:38
  Speaker 5: supposed to enjoy this as a Panthers fan? Please help me?
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: Well? Please? Do you know I hope not turn in
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: at all. You know, we need every viewer we can go.
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: I got a nice run of record ratings and we
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: want to keep that going. But yeah, I think there
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: are a lot of It's first of all, as you know,
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: I mean, playoff hockey's awesome. I'm not I don't think
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: there's anything better. I get a lot of tech messages
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: from friends of mine or hockey fans. Are there anything
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: better than the Stanley Cup playoffs? And maybe there are
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: things that are as good, but I don't think there's
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: anything better. So, you know, a lot of great storylines
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: on both sides, a lot of individuals to root for.
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: You know, I brought Rod brindanmore I think is one
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: of the best guys in the NHL, just one of
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: the best people, and you know, he finally kind of
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: got through the Eastern Conference final roadblock that they hadn't
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: be able to get passed. You know, it would be
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: really cool. I mean, he was the captain of the
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: last team that played in the Stanley Cup Final. John Tortorella.
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: Most people who know him love him. He's hard to
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: love if you just kind of see some of the
• 5:39
  Speaker 3: sound bites and you wouldn't think he was a particularly
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: nice guy. But he's much loved by most people within
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: the game. You know, he's gone more than twenty years
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: since he was in the final.
• 5:48
  Speaker 5: So yeah, Sean, I do I do need you to
• 5:52
  Speaker 5: explain if you can the Golden Knights to us, because
• 5:57
  Speaker 5: you know, the Panthers, for example, one more game games
• 6:00
  Speaker 5: than they did and now with Towrterrello, you mentioned them
• 6:02
  Speaker 5: being here. Can somebody make sense of this to me?
• 6:05
  Speaker 5: And by the way's still here. You just can't see him.
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: Yeah, what, I don't know. Maybe he's calling my golf
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: concierge at.
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: I'm taking as he charger because he stole my and
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: my computer's dead every time.
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: And that's another thing, every time I moned. Maybe it's me,
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: but I promise no technical problem doesn't work. I'm at
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: Syracuse in a special studio at the Communications School, and
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: we can't get that to work. I mean, it's just like,
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: I don't know, how does this thing get on the
• 6:37
  Speaker 3: air day after day after day, especially knowing that Mikey
• 6:40
  Speaker 3: and Taylor is buttoned up as they can possibly be.
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: Anyway, except when I asked Taylor to get that broadcast located.
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: Yes, well, but to answer your question, yeah, if the
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: if the I was just reading my in my fancy
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: little research notes I'm highlighting if the if Vegas had
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: been in the Eastern Conference, they would not have made
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: the playoffs. Right with ninety five points in the West,
• 7:07
  Speaker 3: they won the Pacific Division. I think the answer is
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: they're a really good team. They their goaltending struggled a
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: lot of the year. They had injuries to goalies, and
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: then the goalies who were healthy and playing weren't playing
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: very well. So I think the biggest reason a while,
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: even though Tortorella has gotten most of the credit, I
• 7:28
  Speaker 3: think the biggest reason why they went on this run
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: at the end of the regular season and have continued
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: it into the playoffs is Carter Hart. You know, the
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: goalie he's he's towards started him for six of the
• 7:38
  Speaker 3: last eight regular season games. He won all six. That's
• 7:41
  Speaker 3: why they made him the number one goalie here to
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: start the playoffs. And he's been, you know, as good
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: as anybody. Ian Freddie Anderson, who's obviously the goalie for Carolina. Oh,
• 7:50
  Speaker 3: there he is. You get your charge. Yeah, then you go.
• 7:53
  Speaker 3: I see. But now it's confusing to because you've moved
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: in a different you know, we have these Brady bunch
• 7:58
  Speaker 3: zoom things and now you're over there.
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so you don't need this, I mean just hours
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: before you're calling game one of the Stanley Cup.
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: I mean no. I'm glad though, because it gave me
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: a chance to vent because that booth thing in Miami.
• 8:11
  Speaker 3: And I meant to mention it when I was on
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: with you the last time. Yeah, I got nothing to do.
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: I was I doing the last time. It was some
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: big game the day of and uh yeah, I meant
• 8:22
  Speaker 3: to mention the last time. Now I can, I can.
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: I'm a free man. Now I can go on National
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: TV tonight and feel good that I'm.
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: Part of the club. A lot of people he's let down.
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: Nothing that's going to happen tonight will be more challenging
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: than doing this interview with us.
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: So you're in good shape, You're right?
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: Yes, Well with you that's the team. I have no problem.
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: They didn't promise to get me a better booth of
• 8:43
  Speaker 3: tea time a restaurant. Well, they just they just the solid,
• 8:49
  Speaker 3: good teammates that they are.
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: Yes, I'm waiting to hear back from Fred here, but
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: this Carolina team is so overwhelming, sean it.
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: We don't need Fred. I've got a million T time.
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: Don't you know you don't need what I mean?
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: Why am I offering you the booths in Miami?
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: Right, He's never been upsets dude, He's no, he's not
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: gonna let it. This is this is the most upset
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: I've ever rightfully.
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: So, I'm so easy going and my pulse I can't believe.
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: But game day one of the Stanley Cup Final, I'm
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: I'm literally worried about my my physical and mental health
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: right now, always worried about my mental health, as as
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: we all should be. But anyway, we digress.
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: I was going to say, I find it hard to
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: believe because Caroline has been so overwhelming the entire season
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: and the postseason, and I keep doubting Vegas.
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: But Vegas keeps moving on in the playoffs.
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: But I just have a hard time seeing Carolina lose
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: in the Stanley Cup Final.
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: Uh, what do you think.
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: The only team that was more overwhelmingly dominant in the
• 9:51
  Speaker 3: regular season was Colorado. Yeah, and they started out thirty one,
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: two and seven, which is ridiculous. You know, they won
• 9:59
  Speaker 3: the Residence Trophy comfortably. They went eight and one in
• 10:02
  Speaker 3: the first two rounds of the playoffs, beat Minnesota in five.
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: A lot of people thought that, well, that's going to
• 10:07
  Speaker 3: be an epic series, and Minnesota is really good, and
• 10:09
  Speaker 3: they really were good. They know, they were dominant and
• 10:12
  Speaker 3: everybody said, well, who's going to beat them? And then
• 10:13
  Speaker 3: Vegas swept them right out of the playoffs. So I
• 10:16
  Speaker 3: think these are two really evenly matched teams. They play
• 10:19
  Speaker 3: a very similar style. I mean, they're attacking and relentless,
• 10:23
  Speaker 3: and you know, they play four lines. Their scoring is
• 10:26
  Speaker 3: spread out. They're getting good goaltending, which you know for
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: Carolina that hasn't always been the case in the playoffs
• 10:33
  Speaker 3: in the past. But Freddy's been terrific and caught a
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: hot as we say in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, has
• 10:40
  Speaker 3: also been It's very hard for me to say his
• 10:42
  Speaker 3: name sometimes I shortened it. I in one series, one
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: game earlier in the playoffs, I called them kart, which
• 10:49
  Speaker 3: I know, but once and I was actually joke. I
• 10:52
  Speaker 3: was playing golf rare trip on the golf course in
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: Vegas with Dave Gosher, who is the great play by
• 10:58
  Speaker 3: play guy for the Vegas Goal, and I was joking
• 11:01
  Speaker 3: about I called him Kart, and then he said he
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: called when they had Jonathan Marshasso and Barbershev. One time
• 11:09
  Speaker 3: he called somebody Marshev and Howden and Hannafin became Howdi Finn.
• 11:18
  Speaker 3: So now the next game, every time Howden had the puck,
• 11:21
  Speaker 3: because we joked so much about it, I had to
• 11:23
  Speaker 3: not call him. You know, I wish I hadn't had
• 11:26
  Speaker 3: that conversation with Dave because now it's in my head.
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: So so now tonight we're gonna have how a fey
• 11:33
  Speaker 3: of I think I'm trying to work on things like
• 11:35
  Speaker 3: how I can shorten it.
• 11:47
  Speaker 6: Sean, I was reading an article that you were calling
• 11:50
  Speaker 6: college basketball games. You got to know Tom Crean. Tom Crean,
• 11:54
  Speaker 6: who was the brother in law of John and Jim Harbaugh,
• 11:56
  Speaker 6: asked you to play in their celebrity golf tournament. You
• 11:59
  Speaker 6: became friends with John Harbaugh. So through your friendship with
• 12:03
  Speaker 6: John Harbaugh, what is something that people don't know about coach?
• 12:06
  Speaker 3: Wow, coach Harbaugh? Coach. Yeah, that might be the greatest
• 12:11
  Speaker 3: segue in the history of communications.
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: Yes, yes, yes.
• 12:16
  Speaker 3: I love that. That's awesome.
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 12:19
  Speaker 3: What what don't people know about John Harbaugh?
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: Now he's got to go through the rolodecks and really
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: think about it, because there's a reason thing that people
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: don't know, whatever it is.
• 12:29
  Speaker 3: I mean, I think the things that I appreciate about
• 12:32
  Speaker 3: people know. I mean he's, you know, obviously a great coach,
• 12:36
  Speaker 3: great person, great family guy, tremendous family guy, person of
• 12:40
  Speaker 3: tremendous religious faith. Crappy golfer, I mean crappy. His wife's
• 12:47
  Speaker 3: better than he is really on a relative scale. Ingrid
• 12:52
  Speaker 3: the but he doesn't play much and he doesn't even
• 12:54
  Speaker 3: like it. You know, when we when they come out
• 12:55
  Speaker 3: to Arizona, we play because Ingrid likes to play, and
• 12:57
  Speaker 3: John just kind of goes along for the ride. Great dad.
• 13:01
  Speaker 3: You know, their daughter, Allison played college lacrosse and she's
• 13:04
  Speaker 3: in law school now. He's super proud of her. I
• 13:08
  Speaker 3: don't know what else there, you know, yeah, the stuff,
• 13:14
  Speaker 3: the other stuff.
• 13:14
  Speaker 5: I probably shouldn't say, you know what that is actually,
• 13:17
  Speaker 5: because if I'm going to like John Harbaugh, if he's
• 13:20
  Speaker 5: just a bad golfer who.
• 13:21
  Speaker 4: Goes along for the ride, that's my people.
• 13:24
  Speaker 3: Maybe I take it he's a great He's just he's
• 13:27
  Speaker 3: as fine a person as I know. I mean this,
• 13:31
  Speaker 3: you know, he's just, he really is. He's uh, you
• 13:35
  Speaker 3: know any any I don't want to say because it's
• 13:38
  Speaker 3: self indulgent, but yeah, he's a great friend. He's coming
• 13:42
  Speaker 3: to this uh this this National Sportscaster of the Year
• 13:46
  Speaker 3: award that somehow I won because I think I was
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: the only voter the uh's. He and Ingrid are coming
• 13:53
  Speaker 3: to the banquet in Greensboro, North Carolina. I mean, he
• 13:56
  Speaker 3: has a lot to do. When is it why you
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: gotta get me a better table?
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: No, No, I'm thinking about sending Taylor to go to it.
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: I mean, that's all. I mean.
• 14:08
  Speaker 3: It's June twenty ninth, June twenty nine, greylen Borough, North Carolina.
• 14:13
  Speaker 4: You've had Sean on way too much.
• 14:14
  Speaker 3: Now.
• 14:15
  Speaker 4: He knows you way too well.
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: He knows me very well.
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: But I'm wondering why we never see Sean McDonough. We
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: see Joe Buck out there. How come we never see
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: Sean McDonough. Perhaps he's calling baseball games Lake Tahoe Tournament. Why,
• 14:25

  Speaker 3: good shots. Where you hit a screaming line drive to
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: kill somebody, We're not going to show it. So, yes,
• 14:51
  Speaker 3: I actually did hit a woman. It's playing in the point.
• 14:57
  Speaker 3: Does that mean I have to go when stuck gun
• 14:58
  Speaker 3: starts giving you? Oh?
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: No, no, I was telling him. I had a small question.
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: But is he made a very important distinction there? You
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: hit a woman with a golf ball?
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah? Well yeah. I was playing in the Deutsche Bank
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: Pro Am, which is our old PG tournament outside of Boston,
• 15:14
  Speaker 3: and I hit a draw sometimes a hook. Lucas Glover
• 15:19
  Speaker 3: was our pro and he called me sling blade because
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: I sling the ball like this. So we get on
• 15:26
  Speaker 3: the seventeenth hole, which is as a dog leg left.
• 15:28
  Speaker 3: It's perfect for me. He's all right, sling blade. You know,
• 15:31
  Speaker 3: this is a great old for you, sling one around
• 15:32
  Speaker 3: the corner. So of course I hit a high block
• 15:35
  Speaker 3: into the luxury, into the suites, and I got up
• 15:39
  Speaker 3: there to say, you know, like, oh my god. Ball
• 15:42
  Speaker 3: went into the private box and there was an older
• 15:46
  Speaker 3: woman and she had an oxygen and I'm like, oh
• 15:50
  Speaker 3: my god, they got here fast. It turns out she
• 15:53
  Speaker 3: was already on oxygen before, but for other health issues.
• 16:00
  Speaker 3: But I, you know, and I don't get recognized that often.
• 16:02
  Speaker 3: Of course I can over there and I walk on.
• 16:04
  Speaker 3: I'm so sorry. She said, oh it's you. I used
• 16:08
  Speaker 3: to like you. I was like fans I have. Yeah,
• 16:13
  Speaker 3: I'm a little worried about hitting people with golf balls,
• 16:16
  Speaker 3: but I do feel some relief that they promised not
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: to show bad shots.
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: Listen. I couldn't get the booth done in Miami.
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: I couldn't get you a better location, but I did
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: call NBC and I got you invited to like Tahoe.
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: So you're well, I mean, goody good.
• 16:31
  Speaker 3: That is just that it really is relentless. I mean,
• 16:35
  Speaker 3: I think Charles Barkley might have had a little more
• 16:39
  Speaker 3: to do with again, Charles Charles. I think Charles interceded
• 16:46
  Speaker 3: on my behalf. Yes, actually I know we did, but
• 16:49
  Speaker 3: I don't think that. I think I might have been
• 16:51
  Speaker 3: invited anyway. But it certainly doesn't help. But that event
• 16:54
  Speaker 3: hurt if Charles is gonna stand up for you.
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: Taylor thinks the thing that people lie most about in
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: sports is their handicap.
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: Do you agree?
• 17:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah? I mean you at the d of the gym system, right,
• 17:10
  Speaker 3: it's fair for the you know, for everybody to see.
• 17:14
  Speaker 3: I just told the NBC people when I knew I
• 17:17
  Speaker 3: was a candidate, I'm better than billis Well, even though
• 17:20
  Speaker 3: he lies, you know, he says he has a better handicap.
• 17:23
  Speaker 3: He's one of those vanity handicapped people where he says
• 17:28
  Speaker 3: he's a five and he's probably a twelve. Yes, so
• 17:30
  Speaker 3: you want to play, well, we used to do the
• 17:31
  Speaker 3: Maui Invitational. We play every morning at the Plantation Course
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: at Capitoloo And like, how much do you want to
• 17:40
  Speaker 3: play for Jay? You know, because it's like he was
• 17:42
  Speaker 3: giving me shots. It's like just so, and he's in
• 17:47
  Speaker 3: that tournament. Do you ever see his name on the
• 17:49
  Speaker 3: leader thing?
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: Nope?
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: Nope, nope, we see him all the time. I see
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: him the entire weekend, but never on the leader board. No,
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: you're right, do you play that I played in the program.
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: I don't play in the full tournament though, so I'm
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: not there broadcasting.
• 18:00
  Speaker 3: Freddy Freddy from the Wind. Can't catch you in. No.
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: But yeah, I'm glad you mentioned Freddy from the Wind
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: because he wrote me back and said McDonough is royalty here.
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: Whenever he wants to play, just tell him to come
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: see me.
• 18:11
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 18:11
  Speaker 4: I don't need to do that.
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: Yes, well he didn't need me. He could have just.
• 18:16
  Speaker 3: Walked well, added to the list.
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: We have some other options, Uh, quickly here? Yeah, yeah,
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: inviting me? I mean, what's happened?
• 18:27
  Speaker 3: My phone is ring? Yeah, fred it's to see you
• 18:30
  Speaker 3: in Lake Tahoe.
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: Yes, we'll be out there the entire week broadcasting. We've
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: been there, uh, crew with with most.
• 18:38
  Speaker 5: Of this crew, I hope, Yes, I mean, listen, I'm
• 18:40
  Speaker 5: there if you allow me to, you're right.
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: My permission to go just call.
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: Bred Absolutely, the more the merrier, I'll put a fly McDonough.
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: I'm putting a flyer on you to win the whole thing. Okay,
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: you're a good golfer. I know you are.
• 18:54
  Speaker 3: I'm not like Taylor Twelveman. Yeah, Taylor is one of
• 18:58
  Speaker 3: my golf buddies from Boston. We played a decent amount
• 19:00
  Speaker 3: around Boston. He almost won it last year. Right. It's
• 19:03
  Speaker 3: funny like you were around sports our whole lives and
• 19:06
  Speaker 3: you don't really get nervous. Why I was super nervous
• 19:09
  Speaker 3: for Taylor watching Men on TV because I just wanted
• 19:11
  Speaker 3: to I knew how much he would have loved to
• 19:13
  Speaker 3: have win. He's such a great guy and he's actually
• 19:15
  Speaker 3: been a big help to me with this Tahole thing.
• 19:17
  Speaker 3: He told me, you want to make sure you stay
• 19:19
  Speaker 3: here and get out and on this day and do
• 19:21
  Speaker 3: this and don't do that. So yeah, but he is.
• 19:25
  Speaker 3: There are a lot of play I know most of
• 19:27
  Speaker 3: those guys who play that thing, and I will be
• 19:30
  Speaker 3: comfortably middle of the pack.
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 19:33
  Speaker 3: I asked the Peter Millar people, do you want to
• 19:37
  Speaker 3: outfit the fifty third place finisher in the field, because
• 19:40
  Speaker 3: if so, we'll take a couple of free shirts while
• 19:42
  Speaker 3: you're at it.
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: We were in Lake Tahoe.
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: I believe it was last year, so I'd be interested
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: to get your thoughts on this. Joe Buck said, even
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: though it benefits Joe Buck that when you get to
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: a championship round to the conference finals, he doesn't like
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: that they take the local broadcast away because he knows
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: fans love the local broadcast. And I'm wondering, your buddy,
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: Mike Breed has been a Nick fan his entire life,
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: and now he's calling an NBA finals nationally with the
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: Knicks in the San Antonio Spurs. And I would like
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: Mike to be a little bit of a homer and
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: I think that he will be because I know he
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: wants the Knicks to win so badly.
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: What do you think I know I should not.
• 20:17
  Speaker 3: I'm sure he wants the Knicks to win. It would
• 20:19
  Speaker 3: be insane to think he doesn't, and it would, you know.
• 20:22
  Speaker 3: And I don't think we should ask that of him,
• 20:25
  Speaker 3: but I do. He and I just talked about this
• 20:27
  Speaker 3: the other day. Interesting, we talked on the phone three
• 20:30
  Speaker 3: or four days ago, and uh, and I asked him that,
• 20:34
  Speaker 3: you know, how excited are about the Knicks? And you know,
• 20:36
  Speaker 3: he is excited about the Knicks. But you know, and
• 20:40
  Speaker 3: I've had this in my own experience, you're so caught
• 20:43
  Speaker 3: up in calling the game like the fan part of
• 20:45
  Speaker 3: you just goes out the window. You know, I'll be doing,
• 20:49
  Speaker 3: you know, games for teams I care about and don't
• 20:52
  Speaker 3: even think about it, and then I'm watching a game
• 20:53
  Speaker 3: on TV as a fan, I'm screaming at the refs,
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: are yelling at the coach why did you do that?
• 20:58
  Speaker 3: Or why aren't you doing this? So Mike is the
• 21:01
  Speaker 3: ultimate pro. You know, there's no greater pro in our business.
• 21:04
  Speaker 3: I don't think there's anybody better at play by play
• 21:06
  Speaker 3: in any sport than Mike. You know, he's right there
• 21:09
  Speaker 3: on the mount rushmore for me of the people who
• 21:11
  Speaker 3: do it right now. And he will do a professional job.
• 21:14
  Speaker 3: And I'm sure he wants.
• 21:15
  Speaker 4: The Knicks to win the way Mike will show off.
• 21:18
  Speaker 3: And anybody who thinks, you know, like in the San
• 21:20
  Speaker 3: Antonio people should allow him that too. Yes, but they
• 21:24
  Speaker 3: won't know it when they watch, because I guarantee, if anything,
• 21:26
  Speaker 3: in my experience, you learned the lean too hard the
• 21:29
  Speaker 3: other way to prove that you're not biased. You try
• 21:31
  Speaker 3: to act more excited when the other team scores or whatever,
• 21:35
  Speaker 3: say nice things about them or claim they got, you know,
• 21:38
  Speaker 3: a bad call, and maybe they didn't, you know. So
• 21:41
  Speaker 3: he's a pro.
• 21:42
  Speaker 5: The way he will show any sort of you know,
• 21:44
  Speaker 5: homer Ism is just by giving such detailed nicks information
• 21:48
  Speaker 5: like I've always listening in the Conference finals and it's
• 21:50
  Speaker 5: just like, man, that is some in depth stuff he's
• 21:52
  Speaker 5: given you.
• 21:53
  Speaker 3: And to right, you just know more through naturally because
• 21:57
  Speaker 3: you're around it all the time and you know it's
• 22:01
  Speaker 3: and I agree, you know, sometimes when you know more
• 22:03
  Speaker 3: about one team, like I will know a lot more
• 22:05
  Speaker 3: about Vegas going into this tonight, I would know more
• 22:08
  Speaker 3: about Carolina than I will, except I've now spent you know,
• 22:11
  Speaker 3: a half hour talking.
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: To you guys.
• 22:15
  Speaker 3: Working on my shots for the Hurricanes. But you know,
• 22:19
  Speaker 3: I just know more about Vegas because we just did
• 22:22
  Speaker 3: their Western Conference final. So I will catch up more
• 22:25
  Speaker 3: and more and more with Carolina as we go. And
• 22:28
  Speaker 3: Trip Tracy, who's the analyst for the Hurricanes on TV
• 22:31
  Speaker 3: and radio because they simulcast, he was a huge help
• 22:35
  Speaker 3: and kind of getting me up to speed on them.
• 22:36
  Speaker 3: But yeah, it's it's natural. When you know more about
• 22:40
  Speaker 3: one team, it probably comes out more as well.
• 22:42
  Speaker 4: He I think they should put Clyde in the booth
• 22:44
  Speaker 4: for at least one half.
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. I like the Homer stuff. But anyway,
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: let's get shown out of here. He's got Game one
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: of the Stanley Cup tonight on ABC eight o'clock Carolina
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: and Vegas.
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: Fred said you can call him anytime.
• 22:55
  Speaker 3: So, yeah, is Fred gonna move the booth in Miami?
• 22:59
  Speaker 3: I don't need I needed the booth move.
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: I gotta tell you, Fred has a better chance of
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: getting that booth move than I do.
• 23:05
  Speaker 2: He just knows people.
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: He's one of those he knows people. He knows the
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: guy who knows the guy. Anyway, thank you as always
• 23:12
