  The New York Knicks tied their first round series at 2:00
• 0:09
  Saturday evening in Atlanta behind the 2010 and 10 triple
• 0:14
  double from Karl Anthony Towns and yet another monster
• 0:17
  performance by OG Ananobi. As the series heads back to the
• 0:21
  Garden for Game 5 on Tuesday, can the Knicks hold off the
• 0:25
  pesky Hawks or will team captain Jalen Brunson's uncharacteristic
• 0:29
  struggles with his shot sink the squad in the playoffs before
• 0:33
  they can even get going? The Yankees swept the Red Sox
• 0:36
  last weekend. On Saturday, General manager
• 0:39
  Craig Breslow took care of all family business in one stroke
• 0:43
  firing long time manager and 2018 World Series champion Alex
• 0:47
  Cora and his entire coaching staff as the Red Sox have
• 0:51
  underachieved their way to the bottom of the AL ES with an 11
• 0:54
  and 17 record. With their highly touted
• 0:57
  prospects struggling in the bigs and their free agent decisions
• 1:01
  looking worse by the day, is this wholesale staff firing a
• 1:06
  much needed reset for the Bow Sox or is this just the
• 1:09
  beginning of their plummet into obscurity with bad ownership
• 1:13
  trusting in a bad GM? And before we check in on the
• 1:17
  Wolves Nugget Series that's had fights, finds and now serious
• 1:20

• 4:19
  It's been a crazy, crazy weekend.
• 4:22
  If you're a hockey fan, the NHL playoffs are heating up right
• 4:25
  now. Speedy 6 Pack.
• 4:27
  We're going to go in and out, which we haven't spoken about
• 4:30
  what the playoffs are bringing to the table.
• 4:33
  Well, tonight, ladies and gentlemen, if you're a hockey
• 4:35
  fan, we will get into that a little bit later in the show.
• 4:38
  We're getting get into a lot with the NFL draft.
• 4:42
  And I will say this, if you're I almost said you a Yankee fan, if
• 4:45
  you're a Giants or Jets fan, you should be very, very happy about
• 4:50
  the draft. Very, very happy about the
• 4:52
  draft. If you look at what The Jets are
• 4:55
  doing right now, I believe Darren Moji knows what he's
• 4:58
  doing. We have to see what Aaron Glenn
• 5:00
  is going to bring to the table. But this squad is starting to
• 5:04
  build up into an Aaron Glenn squad as they added David
• 5:08
  Bailey, who I think is a beast. He's going to be at that line.
• 5:11
  I know Quinton loves him. Stanford guy.
• 5:14
  He went to Stanford for three years and and he finished his
• 5:18
  his college education at Texas Tech.
• 5:20
  And boy, oh, boy, did he rock the world last year.
• 5:23
  Oh, this year at the end of the season with 14 1/2 sacks, he was
• 5:27
  one of the best and more dominant edge rushers in college
• 5:30
  football. And then you know what they did
• 5:33
  on the offensive side of the ball.
• 5:34
  And like I said, we'll get into that a little bit later in the
• 5:37
  show. We'll have our recap.
• 5:38
  But it's been a crazy, crazy weekend and the weather is
• 5:42
  changing here in Long Island, New York.
• 5:44
  I do not like the pollen. I don't like the green all over
• 5:47
  your cars. The the docks are out, the geese
• 5:51
  are crossing the street and the birds, you see Hawks and
• 5:56
  actually saw an eagle about a day ago.
• 5:58
  So you don't really get a chance to see eagles.
• 6:01
  They're American eagle. Yeah, American eagle.
• 6:03
  It's going. They're actually going extinct.
• 6:05
  So when you get a chance to see something like that, it's pretty
• 6:08
  cool. It's pretty crazy.
• 6:09
  So I got a chance to see that the other day and yeah, it's
• 6:13
  it's always great to see the weather change.
• 6:16
  I don't like the heat out here. I don't like the summers here.
• 6:19
  I don't like the humidity. I hate it.
• 6:22
  But you know what that means? It means when it gets warmer
• 6:24
  out, it means ballparks, it means baseball.
• 6:27
  It means Mets, Yankees and hopefully the Mets will get out
• 6:31
  of this hole because I them playing Colorado and watching
• 6:36
  them play the last two games against Colorado, it's
• 6:38
  embarrassing. It is really embarrassing
• 6:40
  watching the New York Mets. The Mets should be ashamed of
• 6:43
  themselves. It doesn't even look like they
• 6:44
  want to go and play baseball. And what it tells me right now,
• 6:49
  and we will get into that also a little bit later to show is
• 6:52
  Mendoza could be on his way out. This this organization might be
• 6:56
  looking for a new manager at the end of the season.
• 6:59
  I I just and we, we're going to get into the whole Boston Red
• 7:02
  Sox debacle because that is an absolute embarrassment what the
• 7:06
  Boston Red Sox did early in the season.
• 7:09
  I I'm so shocked that the the Red Sox did that.
• 7:12
  But again, a lot to get into tonight and we have a very
• 7:16
  special guest shout out to Nif. We will be talking a long time
• 7:19
  New York Post baseball writer Ken Davidoff.
• 7:22
  He's going to be joining us. We're going to talk about his
• 7:24
  book. We're going to talk about some
• 7:26
  baseball. There it is, one O 1 lessons
• 7:28
  from the dugout featuring Ken Davidoff.
• 7:32
  So he's going to be fantastic tonight.
• 7:34
  I'm sure he has his own takes on the Yankees and the Mets and
• 7:37
  what's going on in baseball, right?
• 7:39
  Now David Wright, baby. Yeah, David Wright.
• 7:41
  That's right. The old Dave Stir, the old Davey
• 7:44
  WAVY. Anyways, we got to get into the
• 7:47
  New York Knicks because this series has been incredibly
• 7:54
  crazy. Incredibly crazy.
• 7:57
  The Knicks beat the Hawks in game 4114 to 98 to even up the
• 8:03
  playoff series with the Hawks two to two.
• 8:06
  Karl Anthony Towns had a triple double with 20 points, 10
• 8:10
  rebounds and 10 assists. It was his first triple double
• 8:14
  in the playoffs in Katz career and his fourth playoff triple
• 8:19
  double in Knicks history. OG Anobi also added a double
• 8:25
  double, finishing with 22 points and 10 rebounds.
• 8:29
  Thank God the Knicks defense contained Jalen Johnson, holding
• 8:33
  him to only 14 points on 4 for 12 shooting from the field and
• 8:40
  one for five shooting from three.
• 8:43
  Besides McHale Bridges, all four other Knick starters had a
• 8:47
  ratings of plus 10 or higher, while all Hawk starters had a
• 8:53
  rating of -9 or lower. The Knicks have outscored the
• 8:58
  Hawks by a total of 441 to 416 in the series, but the series
• 9:05
  remains tied two to two. Now I have said this, and I know
• 9:11
  Q has gone out there and said that this is going to be a very,
• 9:15
  very hard series for the New York Knicks.
• 9:17
  This is a young team. The Hawks, they're hungry.
• 9:21
  Jaylen Johnson is a star. We we've seen him enough this
• 9:25
  year to know when he is healthy. This team is playing on all
• 9:28
  cylinders. This team could be unbeatable.
• 9:30
  There are some points of this season where you can see what
• 9:34
  this team could be if they had a couple more pieces in the
• 9:36
  offseason. But CJ McCollum is a great
• 9:39
  veteran player. We've seen him in his career for
• 9:41
  Portland. He's jumped a couple of teams
• 9:44
  over the his career, but he is a sensational player.
• 9:47
  He's add some you well, he's added some depth and he's also
• 9:51
  added some veteran personality to this lineup.
• 9:56
  And you look at the Hawks and I I'll say this, if you're a Hawks
• 9:59
  fan, you should be proud of this team.
• 10:01
  Even if the Hawks lose this series, if it goes seven games
• 10:04
  or if they win this series, you'll be shocked because they
• 10:07
  shouldn't win this series. The Knicks are the better team.
• 10:09
  They are. They're absolutely the better
• 10:12
  team. But there are players like
• 10:14
  Mikhail Bridges that for some reason doesn't show up to these
• 10:17
  games and hides. And I'm not saying that he hides
• 10:20
  on the bench, but he hides when he's on the basketball court.
• 10:23
  He disappears. He doesn't even know what he is
• 10:27
  as a player on this team. The Knicks gave up five first
• 10:30
  round draft picks for this guy, five first round draft picks.
• 10:34
  And he has produced diddly squat in the series.
• 10:38
  And this is what happened last year when they played Detroit,
• 10:41
  Mikhail Bridges was nowhere to be found, nowhere to be found.
• 10:45
  And then when they played the Celtics, when they needed
• 10:47
  Mikhail Bridges to defend Jayson Tatum or Jaylen Brown, he played
• 10:53
  at A at a great level. This guy is so inconsistent.
• 10:57
  So inconsistent. Yeah, you have to worry about
• 11:01
  him. And and as a Knick fan, as a
• 11:03
  person that roots off roots on this team and thinks that this
• 11:06
  team is credible. This team is a championship
• 11:08
  competitive team put together by Leon Rose.
• 11:11
  They brought in Mike Brown. I don't know if they have the
• 11:14
  fire they had like they had last year with Tom Thibodeau as the
• 11:17
  head coach. I wonder when I look at this
• 11:22
  roster if this team is built to win together.
• 11:27
  You have two players, two stars and Karl Anthony Towns and
• 11:31
  Jaylen Brunson, that don't play defense.
• 11:34
  I don't care what any fan says. I don't care if Karl Anthony
• 11:37
  Towns shows up one day and doesn't show up the next.
• 11:40
  He's not a defensive player. He really isn't.
• 11:42
  Cat is not a defensive player and Jaylen Brunson we know is
• 11:46
  not a defensive player. When these guys are both on the
• 11:49
  court, it creates havoc on the defensive side of the ball.
• 11:54
  And then you have OG Anobi. He has to switch off play the
• 11:57
  better defense play the better wing guy, play the better point.
• 12:01
  I I mean, he's defending McCullum, he's defending Jaylen
• 12:03
  Johnson, he's jumping ship, moving around.
• 12:06
  If if you're an OG Anobi fan, you, you wonder, is he tired?
• 12:11
  Is he worn out already? Because he's playing multiple
• 12:14
  positions, defending multiple positions And you wonder, is
• 12:18
  Mikhail Bridges helping out? I'll say this, Jose Alvarado
• 12:23
  after Jalen Brunson went down last game in game four, he
• 12:27
  played a big part of the Knicks coming and playing, coming back
• 12:30
  in the second-half and playing at a high level.
• 12:32
  And I mean, they gave the Hawks a chance in the third quarter to
• 12:35
  come back. And then Jose Alvarado.
• 12:38
  Alvarado put his foot down and he played defense.
• 12:42
  He stuck it to CJ McCollum and he gave them that.
• 12:46
  That needed defense at the point guard position because Jalen
• 12:50
  Brunson isn't going to play right in on your chest.
• 12:53
  He's not that type of defensive player.
• 12:55
  He's a guy that likes to play isolation basketball.
• 12:58
  But you can see why the Knicks added Jose Alvarado, why Jose
• 13:01
  Alvarado is very, very important as a secondary player at the
• 13:06
  point guard position because to me, McBride is inconsistent to
• 13:10
  everybody could say what they want, they like McBride,
• 13:13
  whatever. McBride's going to be a guy that
• 13:15
  the Knicks are going to be looking to move in the
• 13:16
  offseason. You have too many guys at the
• 13:19
  point guard position. You're if you're looking to add
• 13:22
  a player like Giannis or and I'm not getting into that right now
• 13:24
  because it's the play offs. Oh boy.
• 13:27
  But right now you look at this team, they need Karl Anthony
• 13:32
  Towns to play at a high level. If Karl Anthony Towns plays like
• 13:36
  he did in game four and game game one, actually it was Game 2
• 13:43
  when Carl Anthony Towns came back, you know, played well even
• 13:45
  though they lost. Right.
• 13:47
  If Carl Anthony Towns plays at a high level and maybe Mike Brown
• 13:52
  needs to switch it off, maybe Jalen Bronson in the first half
• 13:55
  plays as the number one guy and then Carl Anthony Towns plays at
• 13:59
  the number two guy. You can't do that.
• 14:01
  But you're going to have to switch off because if Carl
• 14:04
  Anthony Towns doesn't touch the ball and he doesn't understand
• 14:07
  that he is as important as Jalen Bronson is on the on the court,
• 14:12
  he doesn't play at a high level if if he gets lost in the
• 14:15
  skirmish. And that's to me the problem
• 14:18
  right now with the New York Knicks.
• 14:19
  I worry about this team because it just seems like sometimes
• 14:23
  Carl Anthony Towns is more pass happy.
• 14:26
  He doesn't want to shoot the ball.
• 14:27
  He's forcing shots. He's shooting these deep 3
• 14:30
  pointers because nobody's giving him at at his point where he can
• 14:34
  shoot and he can make those shots.
• 14:36
  He's shooting 30 foot, 35 foot jumpers.
• 14:39
  He is not Steph Curry. He's not not that type of
• 14:42
  player, but he is one of the best offensive big men in the
• 14:45
  league. We understand he can shoot the
• 14:47
  three. We've seen him win the
• 14:48
  three-point contest in the All Star game, but this is not the
• 14:51
  All Star Game. This is not a.
• 14:53
  Competition. This is about winning a
• 14:55
  championship and this team do not play on all cylinders.
• 14:59
  You got five guys on the court and all 5 cylinders are not
• 15:03
  working. It's either 3, it's two and
• 15:05
  sometimes it's only 1 and that's the problem.
• 15:09
  This was the first game besides Mikhail Bridges, where everybody
• 15:14
  was playing on all cylinders. And that to me shows me that if
• 15:19
  Mikhail Bridges cannot play at a high level, he should not be
• 15:21
  playing. You sit him and you bring them
• 15:24
  off the bench. You play guys that want to play.
• 15:26
  You play guys that are going to go out there and play hard.
• 15:29
  Because to me, I don't want to hear about his, oh, he's hurt,
• 15:33
  he's crying or this or that. Because I know Mikhail Bridges
• 15:36
  was the reason why Tom Thibodeau was not there anymore.
• 15:39
  Mikhail Bridges. Mikhail Bridges was one of the
• 15:42
  guys that did not want Dom Dibodo there.
• 15:43
  He was complaining all season. Yeah, he got that kind of crowd
• 15:46
  though. Come on, let's do.
• 15:47
  It he was complaining all season long if you watch the Knicks and
• 15:52
  when. He stands in the.
• 15:52
  Medium. No, that's not true.
• 15:55
  All yeah, all they kept talking about you're running them into
• 15:58
  the dirt, you're running them into the ground.
• 16:00
  That's all y'all was talking about the whole year.
• 16:03
  Y'all got the man fired, now you're missing.
• 16:06
  The only two guys that stuck up for Tom Thibodeau was Jalen
• 16:09
  Brunson and Josh Hart. I'm telling you right now,
• 16:12
  Mikhail Bridges had his own thoughts to Tom Thibodeau.
• 16:16
  And remember, you had to give up five first round draft picks.
• 16:18
  You extended his contract. You're going to listen to the
• 16:21
  players. You're not going to listen to
• 16:22
  the coach. Jalen Brunson.
• 16:25
  Jalen Brunson, They didn't care what Jalen Brunson had to say.
• 16:28
  It was crazy to me. He's the number one.
• 16:30
  He's the number one, but guess what?
• 16:32
  It's about team, right? Basketball is about teamwork.
• 16:35
  It's not about talent. It is about talent, but you need
• 16:38
  a team. You can't have one guy if two of
• 16:41
  your guys on your roster is the only one saying that they want
• 16:45
  Tom Thibodeau there. And and the story is Carl
• 16:47
  Anthony Towns didn't want him there.
• 16:49
  Mikhail Bridges didn't want him. OG had his own thoughts and he's
• 16:52
  OG said at the end of the season he was tired when they went to
• 16:55
  the Eastern Conference finals. OG looked tired in that series.
• 16:59
  He looked like he was worn out because he played at an ultra
• 17:03
  competitive fashion last year and he was defending and playing
• 17:07
  at such a high level. And that's why I say to the NBA
• 17:10
  and the voters, how could you leave this guy out?
• 17:12
  How was he the 9th or 10th defensive player of the year on
• 17:18
  that list? That guy was the best defender
• 17:21
  at the wing all season long. He defended all the top wing
• 17:25
  guys in the NBA, every one of them.
• 17:29
  So the fact that nobody gives this man credit because what we
• 17:32
  have seen, OJ and Anobe, I think people are forgetting.
• 17:34
  Look what he's done to Jaylen Johnson in the series.
• 17:37
  Jaylen Johnson, who has been an elite player for the last, I
• 17:42
  would say three months, is not scoring as much as he was during
• 17:47
  the season. This man was scoring between 25
• 17:50
  and 27 points a game in the last two months of the season.
• 17:54
  Do you realize why he's not scoring?
• 17:56
  It's because OG and Nanobi is taking him out of games.
• 17:59
  OG and Nanobi is sticking it to him.
• 18:01
  Dude, watch the game, watch the game, watch the game.
• 18:06
  Can't be a number one shooting 12 shots.
• 18:08
  What are you talking about? He is sticking.
• 18:10
  Him. He is.
• 18:12
  Oh stop. You're going to tell me this has
• 18:13
  nothing to do with OG and Anobi? It has nothing to do with OG and
• 18:16
  Anobi, that this guy is one of the best wing defenders in all
• 18:19
  of the NBA. It has nothing to do with it.
• 18:21
  He's defending them the whole time.
• 18:22
  Best defender? Wing defender.
• 18:25
  He is the best wing defender right now in the NBA.
• 18:28
  According to. You.
• 18:28
  No according to statistics. Analytics would tell you.
• 18:33
  Analytics would tell you OG and Anobi is the best wing defender
• 18:38
  in the NBA. You know the second one is Kawhi
• 18:41
  Leonard. Kawhi I take Kawhi every day,
• 18:46
  twice on Sunday. Nobody's saying that Kawhi
• 18:49
  Leonard isn't a better overall player, So why?
• 18:52
  OG and OB no, we said defender. Yes, right now I would, I would
• 18:55
  take OG. He's younger, he's faster.
• 18:58
  He's never had a a major injury. He's never had a knee injury.
• 19:02
  I mean, Kawhi Leonard's had two knee surgeries.
• 19:04
  You're talking about a younger player, five years younger than
• 19:07
  Kawhi Leonard. Still take Kawai, yeah?
• 19:09
  Well, I disagree. And of course you take Kawai
• 19:11
  because you're a Boston Celtic fan.
• 19:13
  You're going to. Go take Kawai everybody.
• 19:15
  That's not a threat to us. He's not a threat.
• 19:18
  He's not a threat to us. I I think OG and Obi was a
• 19:21
  threat to the Celtics in the last time they met in the
• 19:24
  playoffs. You got you.
• 19:25
  Guys, are you telling me, are you telling me right now, OG,
• 19:29
  are you going to tell me right now the Celtics aren't worried
• 19:31
  about playing the Knicks? In the second round, people by
• 19:33
  30. Oh, you're playing the 76ers.
• 19:37
  You're playing the 70 76ers, a team that.
• 19:40
  Doesn't have a big man. I think honestly, I would
• 19:44
  probably rather play the 76ers. I would rather play the 76ers
• 19:49
  than I would do the Hawks. The Hawks are young.
• 19:52
  The Hawks. The Hawks are young, they're
• 19:55
  talented and they're hungry. The 76ers, they have a bunch of
• 19:59
  fans that don't even show up to their own games.
• 20:02
  You talking about fans support, We talk.
• 20:04
  Oh really? We're not talking about fan
• 20:06
  support. That's what we know.
• 20:07
  We talking about players, Why don't you?
• 20:09
  Why don't you? Take off those Kitty glasses.
• 20:11
  I think you're blonde. Why you take you're blonde.
• 20:14
  You think take? Off those Kitty glasses.
• 20:17
  I think you're blind, man. I think you're losing it.
• 20:20
  I think you're losing it. No, you you picking and choosing
• 20:24
  when you want to go to analytics, then you go to tell
• 20:26
  me. No, I'm not picking to go and
• 20:29
  choose analytics. I'm telling you what the other.
• 20:31
  When Janet Johnson only taking twelve shots, I'm just saying
• 20:34
  I'm just. Saying why is he taking twelve
• 20:37
  shots? Why do you think he's taking
• 20:39
  twelve shots? Because they played
• 20:41
  inconsistent. He's not ready.
• 20:42
  We don't know what they're doing.
• 20:43
  Wait a second, wait a second. So you're telling me, you're
• 20:46
  telling me right now that Jaylen, Jaylen Johnson, who's
• 20:49
  touching the ball about 48% of the time in the game, the only
• 20:54
  reason why he is not scoring is because he's shooting 12 shots?
• 20:57
  What are you? Blind not not the why?
• 20:59
  Are you blind? I'm talking about based off the
• 21:01
  last game. Are you blind?
• 21:03
  Are you watching the game? Are you?
• 21:05
  Are you watching the game? Yes.
• 21:07
  OK, So what are you seeing? I'm.
• 21:09
  Not an OG offense then I am in his.
• 21:11
  Defense. Oh, OK, OK.
• 21:12
  And what I'm saying there, if you got an All Star or a
• 21:15
  superstar that's leading your team that takes 12 shots, he
• 21:18
  don't need to be defended to lose that game.
• 21:21
  That's what you failing to realize.
• 21:23
  He don't he's not he don't need to take he he don't need nothing
• 21:26
  extra to help him lose this game when you only taking twelve
• 21:29
  shots as a superstar. That's what I'm telling you.
• 21:34
  And that's where you're wrong. That's where you're wrong.
• 21:37
  That's where you're wrong. That's where you're wrong.
• 21:40
  And I'm going to tell you this, just because he only shoots the
• 21:43
  ball 12 times does not mean by touching the ball 48% of the
• 21:47
  time he's not seeing and he's not looking to shoot.
• 21:51
  There's because they're the reason because of that is
• 21:53
  because OG Ananobi. OG Ananobi has been sticking
• 21:58
  Jalen Johnson throughout this series.
• 22:00
  He has been one-on-one with Jalen Johnson.
• 22:03
  Jalen Johnson is not scoring right now.
• 22:05
  Jalen Johnson is not playing at the high level he was playing
• 22:08
  all season long is because he has to deal with OG and Anobi
• 22:12
  every other night. He's got to be stuck with that
• 22:16
  man who is sticking him with his long arms, his wing defending
• 22:19
  skills, his claws. As I have said, he's got such
• 22:23
  big hands and he is not going to bite down and let this guy get
• 22:27
  to the hole or shoot over him when he's joking up threes like
• 22:31
  he was doing all season long. And I'm going to say this for
• 22:34
  all you Nick fans, this team has not played yet at an ultra high
• 22:41
  level. And that what's that's what
• 22:44
  scares me right now because the Hawks are young.
• 22:46
  We know they're going to have bumps and they're going to have
• 22:48
  bruises and we know they're going to walk into a wall one
• 22:51
  way or another. But I'm going to tell you this
• 22:54
  right now, what I've seen with this Nick team is not only
• 22:58
  inconsistency, I'm going to say this.
• 23:01
  Mike Brown sometimes is lost. Oh my God.
• 23:05
  He is lost. You don't need a coach.
• 23:08
  He is absolutely lost. I don't know if he knows where
• 23:12
  he is half the time when he's calling timeouts.
• 23:15
  I wonder with this team and this this Nick team, if they really
• 23:20
  buy into what he is doing on the sidelines.
• 23:24
  He's calling up plays and they're doing other things and I
• 23:27
  don't know what he's doing. And then when he's calling a
• 23:29
  timeout, you have the players talking.
• 23:31
  You don't have Matt Mike Brown sitting down and listening.
• 23:35
  That is not Tom Thibodeau, that it was not this Nick team last
• 23:38
  year. Tom was the guy.
• 23:40
  He was the general and the players were the soldiers.
• 23:44
  Not this time, not Mike Brown. It's Jalen Bronson and Carl
• 23:49
  Anthony Towns are talking in the mix of God or Josh Hart speaking
• 23:52
  to the team and they have you have Mike Brown sitting there
• 23:55
  listening to the conversation. Earl, ain't that what you said?
• 23:59
  Ain't that what they need? Isn't it talent run the NBA?
• 24:03
  Don't you remember that? So why do you want a coach to
• 24:05
  give his input when you got 2 superstars like Jaylee Brunson
• 24:09
  and Carl Anthony Towns? Why do you need a coach?
• 24:12
  You got 2 superstars and let's not forget OG because you said
• 24:15
  OG is good. But back to that OG point.
• 24:18
  You know when they lost Friday, Johnson had 29 points right?
• 24:22
  Shot 19 shots. Guess what O GS plus minus was?
• 24:26
  What's that -4? OK.
• 24:29
  Where's Where's this extreme defense at?
• 24:31
  What, so you're telling me right now I'm.
• 24:33
  Telling you is he's. Not dude, you can look at you.
• 24:36
  Can have a good game, but he's. Not so you're looking, you're
• 24:39
  looking at a -, 4 and that's what that's how you're telling
• 24:42
  me that OG on OB isn't taking Jaylen Johnson out.
• 24:45
  Believe it now, but the analytics will tell you that
• 24:48
  who's taking Speedy? Who is taking?
• 24:50
  Who's defending Jaylen Johnson? OG.
• 24:54
  OK. And what is Jaylen Johnson
• 24:56
  averaging right now in this series?
• 24:59
  1616 points. What was he averaging throughout
• 25:01
  the season? 222324 points a game.
• 25:06
  So you're going to tell me he's scoring 6 or 7 points less less
• 25:11
  right now in this series? And it has nothing to do with OG
• 25:14
  And you can go look at your stats.
• 25:16
  It doesn't matter. He's taking twelve shots because
• 25:20
  he's got a player taking him. He's got a player sticking him.
• 25:24
  You're talking about OG and Anobi.
• 25:25
  I got to take your side on this arrow.
• 25:27
  We've got some advanced stats about shooting efficiency.
• 25:31
  Johnson shooting 20%. When they put OG on him in the
• 25:35
  game, he was the primary defender.
• 25:37
  But Johnson had a game worst -19 in that game, which meant they
• 25:43
  shut him down completely. When he tried to leave OG and
• 25:45
  get put on somebody else, it wasn't any better.
• 25:48
  So it was just a disaster throughout the entire game for
• 25:51
  them? Well, why do you think that they
• 25:53
  were so successful in that game and not in the previous games?
• 25:56
  Q. Because he's only taking 12.
• 25:59
  Shots, but the previous game he had like 25 points, right?
• 26:01
  He had 29 and then he had he had 20.
• 26:04
  Four, he had 29, then he had a 24.
• 26:06
  Guess what? OG didn't guard him like that in
• 26:08
  those games. And Mike Brown, they, they, they
• 26:10
  dedicated to be more physical on him.
• 26:13
  He made him the primary defender.
• 26:14
  You know Johnson plays the perimeter.
• 26:16
  Sometimes they use OG inside, you know, if OG is going.
• 26:19
  To. He they did a great job overall.
• 26:22
  The team was way more physical than Atlanta, which is the
• 26:24
  reason why they won. I mean, they were stealing the
• 26:26
  ball on the sideline, taking the ball out of their hands, just
• 26:29
  ripping apart. Atlanta did not come to play
• 26:31
  this last game. You know, I mean, so and
• 26:33
  overall, I'm not, you know, I'm I'm happy for the Knicks.
• 26:36
  You know, I want the Knicks to win because they they'll have to
• 26:39
  face you know who next round and that'll be good.
• 26:42
  That'll be must see TV. And I would love to come up here
• 26:44
  each and every Monday and Thursday and talk about how
• 26:47
  we're leading the series. So I'm cool with that.
• 26:49
  I want them to win, but they don't have a winning recipe.
• 26:52
  Like, I think it was more about Atlanta than it was the Knicks,
• 26:55
  because the Knicks are still trying to figure out what are
• 26:58
  they going to do, how they're going to go.
• 27:00
  Like Earl just said a while ago, he's trying to figure out
• 27:03
  whether it's going to be Brunson or Cat Turn.
• 27:05
  You can't do that. You got to go with the flow of
• 27:08
  the game and it starts with Brunson because he's the point
• 27:11
  guard. So Brunson's been struggling
• 27:13
  with his shot in this whole series.
• 27:15
  And there's a lot of people who are saying, you know, they just
• 27:17
  got a lot of, you know, like tall guards.
• 27:19
  They throw at him one after another, including, you know,
• 27:22
  small. They'll throw Dyson Daniels
• 27:24
  really small forward. They'll throw him on him too.
• 27:26
  Anyone that just makes his life a living hell out there.
• 27:29
  And that's basically what Brunson's been doing the whole
• 27:31
  time, is just trying to get by these guys.
• 27:34
  And they just have unlimited guys.
• 27:35
  So they realized and Errol now that you're back like they went
• 27:39
  through cat in these last in this last game specifically.
• 27:42
  Which is the winning recipe? If they do that, they can win.
• 27:45
  So, but it's that's Mike Brown. Mike Brown made that change.
• 27:48
  They were more physical defensively and they ran the
• 27:51
  offense through Cat because it let Cat be the facilitator.
• 27:55
  Brunson wants to shoot more than he wants to pass anyway.
• 27:57
  So if you have Cat being more facilitator, now you don't have
• 28:00
  to depend on Brunson getting through 2 elite defenders and
• 28:04
  then a third guy to make the play and Cat can see over
• 28:08
  everybody and he's more physical than anyone.
• 28:10
  They got Ocongo can't handle Cat.
• 28:11
  We knew that was going to be the thing during the.
• 28:13
  Here's what Cat show up though, because Cat can be out there
• 28:16
  shooting threes all night and never get down there and bang.
• 28:19
  But that's the last game he banged and this is the reason
• 28:21
  why they win. Listen, he do that.
• 28:23
  You're going to. You're going to sit here and I,
• 28:24
  I know you want the Celt, you want the Celtics to play the
• 28:27
  Knicks because you have unfinished business.
• 28:30
  And I think the Knicks have unfinished business with the
• 28:32
  Celtics because they want to stick it to the Celtics.
• 28:35
  Because all the Celtic fans and everything that you're hearing
• 28:38
  on the back end, because your baseball team isn't doing much
• 28:41
  of anything. They got to hope that this
• 28:43
  Celtic team is going to go all the way to the Eastern
• 28:46
  Conference finals. You're going to sit here and
• 28:48
  you're going to say we want the Knicks.
• 28:49
  You don't want the Knicks. You do not want what do you
• 28:52
  guys? You do not want the Knicks.
• 28:54
  Because the match up. The.
• 28:56
  Knicks. The Knicks match up right now to
• 28:58
  the Celtics. There's the Knicks match up
• 29:00
  better with the Celtics than they all 100 percent, 100%.
• 29:05
  And what does the Celtics have? What depth?
• 29:08
  What depth does the Celtics have?
• 29:10
  What does the depth rotation? I see rotation.
• 29:14
  All right, who's your second? Who's your second?
• 29:16
  I've got a question for you. Who's your second big man?
• 29:20
  It's either Cato or Buchu. Oh, please.
• 29:22
  Oh please. Oh please.
• 29:23
  That's what you're going to sell to us.
• 29:24
  Is that what you're going to sell to us right now?
• 29:27
  I like Cato in town. If.
• 29:29
  They let him play if they let him play for sure.
• 29:31
  You're, you're on. You're on drugs, man.
• 29:33
  But Mitchell Robinson. You're a household name.
• 29:35
  He's not a household. Name.
• 29:37
  Household name. But when you asked me why he's
• 29:39
  not a name? Household.
• 29:40
  You'll see why. You'll see why.
• 29:42
  You'll see why I I think, I think the Knicks match up better
• 29:45
  than them because. You Kleenex.
• 29:47
  You've. Got Kleenex?
• 29:49
  I need a clean. You're going to be.
• 29:52
  Hurt. And what are you going to do
• 29:54
  when you're wiping the tears and the Knicks?
• 29:56
  Beat. Yeah, Yeah.
• 29:57
  What are you going to do that? Bar no is severe injury.
• 30:00
  I hope, I really much hope, you're wearing your Celtic
• 30:02
  jersey or in your Celtic hat during that series.
• 30:05
  If this goes, if the Knicks beat the Hawks and they match up
• 30:08
  against the Celtics, I can't wait until this happens.
• 30:12
  You see what the crazy I can't because it's going to the second
• 30:15
  round really we got to if you guys.
• 30:17
  What are you talking about? What right now?
• 30:19
  What is the, what is the, it's what, 3 to one right now?
• 30:21
  Yeah, it's 3:00 to 1:00. We, yeah, it's 3:00 to 1:00
• 30:24
  right now. So so we're, we're, we're
• 30:27
  arguing and we're making jokes. About this you're.
• 30:30
  Going to the 76ers, who don't have their big man, they have no
• 30:33
  size, right? Now, so he came back, yeah, but
• 30:36
  he was terrible, like the guy, the guys.
• 30:39
  They don't have. Hold on an appendix.
• 30:41
  Let. Me.
• 30:42
  He's not going to be able to let.
• 30:43
  Me, let me. I know he can't.
• 30:45
  You guys, you didn't let me speak.
• 30:47
  I'm on your side on this one. I'm going to help you here.
• 30:49
  I'm going to help you here. Joel Embiid played, but he's not
• 30:53
  back, OK? He is not back.
• 30:56
  This isn't the same Joel Embiid. He is not healthy.
• 30:59
  He came back. He's just like, to me, it's what
• 31:02
  do they call that? It's like a trick.
• 31:04
  They're they're using him as a disguised player on the court,
• 31:07
  decoy, A decoy because they think it's going to open it up
• 31:11
  for Maxi or Paul George. It's not doing anything for this
• 31:14
  team because I believe the 76ers are washed and in in the
• 31:19
  offseason, they're going to have to decide what decide what
• 31:21
  they're going to do with Maxi. Do they want to build a team
• 31:23
  around Maxi or do they want to move them and try to build
• 31:26
  through the draft? Because to me, the 76ers are
• 31:29
  done. They got a bunch of old guys, a
• 31:31
  bunch of washed up guys that can't win.
• 31:33
  And that's the fact. And if you're going to sit here
• 31:36
  to me and you're going to try to sell me that the Knicks are
• 31:39
  worried about the Celtics, I think you're crazy.
• 31:42
  We saw what happened last year. Last year, but we've been
• 31:45
  whooping y'all forever. Whipping All right, what was
• 31:48
  this? What was the Celtics talking
• 31:50
  about? What was the Celtics?
• 31:51
  What was the Celtics record against the Knicks this year?
• 31:54
  I. Don't know where was it?
• 31:56
  What was? It they played four times,
• 31:58
  right? I'm pretty sure they did.
• 31:59
  I think the Knicks beat them three times this year.
• 32:02
  I think it's three. I think the.
• 32:03
  Knicks three. I don't.
• 32:04
  Oh, so that's the oh, that's the secret.
• 32:06
  Now enjoy. That's the secret.
• 32:08
  Everyone enjoy good job. So, so that's what you're
• 32:11
  selling us right now. You're selling us.
• 32:13
  Enjoy they weren't healthy. Enjoy they weren't healthy.
• 32:14
  Enjoy your regular season and they're healthy now and they're
• 32:17
  healthy now. Regular season and they're
• 32:18
  healthy now and you're telling me they're healthy now?
• 32:21
  Yeah. So you're so you're telling me
• 32:22
  Jason Tatum is 100% healthy? He just scored 32, that's who.
• 32:26
  Cares he's playing a 76. 32 in that.
• 32:29
  Nobody's defending him. Who's defending him?
• 32:32
  Who's defending? Oh, oh, so you're going to tell
• 32:35
  me peg legged Paul George? He's not anymore.
• 32:39
  He is. If you look at the analytics.
• 32:42
  The analytics would tell you in the last three years, he hasn't
• 32:44
  been the same defender. That's why 'cause you're,
• 32:47
  you're, you're telling me right now that the reason why Jaylen
• 32:50
  Johnson is not shooting is because there's no excuse.
• 32:54
  He's just not shooting. No, the reason why he's not
• 32:56
  shooting is because he has OG and Anobi sticking on every
• 32:59
  single game. That's why.
• 33:01
  And you're lost and you don't believe it because you're not
• 33:03
  watching the game. You're not watching the game,
• 33:06
  buddy. You're not taking the shots and
• 33:08
  it's okay. You're lost.
• 33:10
  But Knicks, Knicks is tied. So let's talk about it.
• 33:13
  Knicks are tied, all right. That's.
• 33:14
  The three now, right? Q, it's just Knicks have two
• 33:17
  games at home, best of three series.
• 33:20
  It's just simple and I think the Knicks solved, you know what the
• 33:24
  Hawks were doing. You put OG on Jaylen Johnson,
• 33:28
  you'd be physical with your bigs and you dominate through Karl
• 33:32
  Anthony Towns. They don't have an answer for
• 33:33
  that style. They got nothing.
• 33:35
  I'm a little concerned on whether or not the Nets could
• 33:37
  shoot at a shot last. Game, of course you're a little.
• 33:39
  Concerned they were shooting you're.
• 33:41
  Concerned. But Brunson hasn't shot well at
• 33:43
  all. Like Brunson shot terrible this
• 33:45
  whole series. He's he, he, he, he.
• 33:47
  He's too ball dominant. I don't expect him to shoot.
• 33:50
  But like he does shoot. But that's the thing, you,
• 33:53
  that's what everyone says, he. Scores and get fouls.
• 33:55
  Yeah, yeah, I like. I like.
• 33:56
  He always, but you don't realize he usually shoots a lot better
• 33:59
  than this. He doesn't look like he should
• 34:01
  because those shots look like they shouldn't go in.
• 34:03
  And he's done it for now three years straight and he's amazing.
• 34:07
  And as soon as he gets back to playing amazing, and I think
• 34:09
  against the team with less size that they can throw at him, like
• 34:13
  the Celtics have good guards, but maybe not as much size, I'm
• 34:17
  not as worried. I'm not as worried about that
• 34:19
  Celtics team at all. Size.
• 34:21
  Advantages but. We have.
• 34:23
  We matched up with you guys last year, and Mitchell Robinson will
• 34:27
  destroy whatever nonsense center you have as a backup.
• 34:30
  He'll erase him and he'll be off the court.
• 34:32
  They can't do nothing about it, you guys, Mitchell, just wash
• 34:35
  them out. It's just real.
• 34:38
  They got a nine, they got a nine man rotation.
• 34:40
  You're saying like they don't got a rotation.
• 34:41
  They got Mitch who can erase everything.
• 34:43
  They can move everyone else in the starting line up down a
• 34:46
  forward spot so they can who's. Rusted Garden.
• 34:49
  Well, and that's that's the whole point.
• 34:51
  They can bring in Mitch and then you can hide.
• 34:53
  McHale Bridge is going guard. McHale Bridge is really good.
• 34:55
  McHale. Bridge.
• 34:56
  Who's the bridge going guard? He'll probably guard Jaylen
• 34:58
  Brown. So wait, wait a second.
• 35:00
  So I'll, I'll say this, I don't trust Mikhail Bridges.
• 35:04
  I don't trust him. But I will say this, I will hold
• 35:07
  on what I will say, and I want to hear Speedy's take on it.
• 35:11
  What I will say about what Mikhail Bridges does very, very
• 35:14
  well is every time he shows up to a Celtics game, he shows up
• 35:18
  and plays hard. I don't know what it is, but it
• 35:20
  it seems like maybe it's Jalen Brown calling team meetings
• 35:24
  after the Knicks beat him because he did it this year.
• 35:27
  As soon as the Knicks beat the the, the Boston Boston Celtics
• 35:31
  early in the season, what did Jaylen Brown do?
• 35:34
  He called it, he called the team meeting and tried to get fire up
• 35:37
  the troops because it's the Knicks.
• 35:39
  How are the Knicks beating us? Yeah, it's a disgrace.
• 35:41
  Yeah, OK. It's a disgrace.
• 35:43
  It Yeah, it's a disgrace. It's a disgrace that you lost
• 35:46
  four games to one against the Knicks in the second round last
• 35:48
  year, right? Was that a disgrace?
• 35:50
  And I'll just get, then I'll just lose, just completely get
• 35:52
  tortured, tortured at home. Did you win it?
• 35:56
  Yeah. It doesn't matter.
• 35:58
  They they beat, they won that series.
• 35:59
  They won that series. They went and left.
• 36:03
  Yeah, you guys blew. 220 point leads at home.
• 36:06
  That's something that's never happened in FBA history.
• 36:09
  I'm gonna set what we did. What are you?
• 36:10
  Seeing through those ugly glasses, What are you seeing
• 36:13
  through? We used to winning, we're used
• 36:15
  to winning. So I get it.
• 36:16
  When you guys beat the Champions, it it pays off.
• 36:19
  Champions. But.
• 36:21
  You guys are a stable organization, there's no doubt.
• 36:23
  But the Knicks have also built a blueprint.
• 36:26
  Well, hold on one second. You said they're a stable
• 36:28
  organization. They're an organization that has
• 36:29
  a new owner, do they not? Their owner, They have a new
• 36:32
  owner there. Hold on, They have a new owner
• 36:35
  there. You say it's a stable
• 36:36
  organization. This isn't the same organization
• 36:38
  that had the same ownership. It's a different owner and it's
• 36:41
  a different it's, it's a different ownership.
• 36:45
  It's a different organization. And he's still winning.
• 36:48
  He's still winning, OK, and. They're still winning in a year
• 36:50
  that that didn't have expectations.
• 36:52
  That being said, Q the Knicks did beat a blue built a
• 36:54
  blueprint with the wing defense like Fish was describing that
• 36:57
  countered the Celtics. I'm not saying that Brown and
• 37:00
  Tatum are are are not a better duo.
• 37:02
  They are than Bridges and OG, but they still built a system
• 37:06
  that works to to counter the strength on strength with the
• 37:09
  Knicks and the Celtics. Now, obviously they've gotten
• 37:10
  exposed in other instances. The Knicks lost to the Pacers.
• 37:12
  They, I, I think that the didn't have the right transition game
• 37:16
  and same kind of thing with the Hawks this series.
• 37:18
  I think they're a team that the Hawks like to play fast.
• 37:20
  They pilled 11 guys in their rotation, which is different
• 37:23
  than what Quinn Snyder normally did when he was with Utah
• 37:25
  because Utah, they didn't use a lot of their depth as well as
• 37:28
  they should have. And they're countering that very
• 37:29
  well. You saw that in Game 3 when the
• 37:31
  Hawks are getting some good bench contributions in that game
• 37:34
  and obviously CJ McCollum was going off.
• 37:36
  But the Knicks had the counter game plan in Game four to make
• 37:39
  McCullum his job harder in the first half and it really got him
• 37:42
  going. And they've done well on Johnson
• 37:43
  all series. And Errol right about that.
• 37:45
  They're bracketing him very well, switching OG across the
• 37:48
  perimeter and inside against Johnson.
• 37:50
  They're forcing Dyson Daniels to try to be the one shooting
• 37:53
  threes because he can't shoot three.
• 37:54
  He shot like 19% all year from three.
• 37:56
  And they're making that kind of thing work on the defensive side
• 37:59
  now. The offense has to be more
• 38:00
  consistent. But finally, they played a
• 38:01
  steady dose of consistent basketball in this game, which
• 38:04
  you hadn't seen all series long. And it's exactly what Errol
• 38:06
  mentioned in his article. Cat finally being aggressive.
• 38:09
  He was like that in game one and that was a big difference maker.
• 38:11
  Got got to the line 10 times for the free throw line and he was
• 38:14
  so passive after that and he finally got it going again.
• 38:17
  If Cat plays like that, the Knicks are almost impossible to
• 38:20
  beat. If Cat plays at that level, the
• 38:24
  Knicks are almost impossible to be.
• 38:27
  I don't care what anybody says. You can laugh, you can giggle,
• 38:29
  you can jump around with those ugly.
• 38:31
  Say, why would you say something that crazy?
• 38:34
  Say what? Crazy.
• 38:35
  I'm telling you facts. You really believe that?
• 38:37
  No, if cat plays that good. 100% if.
• 38:40
  If cat plays like that, 100% a hundred.
• 38:44
  Percent. Why y'all just go out this last
• 38:46
  time? Yeah, he had a great game.
• 38:47
  He had a triple double, but you guys were shooting lights out
• 38:50
  and you guys was out physical. That's the reason why that game
• 38:53
  was so lopsided this past Sunday.
• 38:56
  OK, that's it. All this other stuff that you're
• 38:59
  talking about. I think those.
• 39:00
  Glasses. I think those glasses, I think
• 39:04
  those glasses are making you lopsided, OK, lopsided, to
• 39:07
  believe there's garbage that's coming out of your mouth because
• 39:11
  it's garbage. I smell the puke.
• 39:13
  I smell the puke. I smell the puke that comes out
• 39:16
  of your mouth right now. And.
• 39:17
  You're probably throwing up at the break the.
• 39:20
  Two games ago didn't he have a great game anyway?
• 39:22
  Y'all lost. Well, hold.
• 39:23
  On Wait a second, wait a second. Are are we going to go back and
• 39:26
  forth on this and and argue points that make no sense to the
• 39:29
  argument? Because that's what you're
• 39:30
  doing. You're going and you're arguing
• 39:32
  about something that has nothing to do with what happened in Game
• 39:36
  4. Nothing.
• 39:38
  If he plays like this they can't be stopped.
• 39:40
  So I represent two games prior to this in regards to where he
• 39:44
  had a good game and they lost. Well, he didn't play like this.
• 39:47
  Oh my God. He didn't have 20.
• 39:49
  He didn't have 20 points, 10 rebounds, 10 assists.
• 39:52
  Keep moving the needle, That's all I'm.
• 39:54
  Saying moving 21 points, but he had no free throws the needle.
• 39:56
  That's not being. If I'm moving the needle, it's
• 39:59
  sticking you right in the ass. That's what it's doing.
• 40:01
  That's what the needle's doing. That's what's doing.
• 40:05
  I mean your 66200 and 50 LB ass is getting smacked around right
• 40:09
  now. You're trying to figure out what
• 40:12
  to say, Sir claims If cat plays like this then #1.
• 40:17
  Listen, fans, listening to the show right now, if you want to
• 40:21
  spit into a mic and you want to talk selfish crawbage that comes
• 40:24
  out of somebody's mouth, there it is.
• 40:26
  Ladies and gentlemen, those Kitty glasses, that fake Yankees
• 40:30
  hat, because he's a real Met fan.
• 40:32
  This guy is a Met fan and he is sitting here with this garbage
• 40:37
  and it's coming out of his mouth.
• 40:38
  Never got the 40 games yet. Give us a shot.
• 40:40
  We. Just got swept by a team that
• 40:42
  lost 120. Games Last year 40 games.
• 40:45
  Interesting. We just lost to a team that lost
• 40:48
  120 games last year. To consider the National League
• 40:50
  poverty franchise like the Rockies organization might make
• 40:54
  the Pirates look smart. Don't worry, Don't worry, Q, I'm
• 40:58
  helping you out here. I'm going to, I'm going to be,
• 41:02
  I'm going to piggy back. I'm going to piggy back.
• 41:05
  I'm going to piggy back on this and get into another subject in
• 41:09
  another story because I don't want to hurt you anymore.
• 41:11
  I I want to, I want to make sure that you're standing on your two
• 41:14
  feet by the end of this show, OK?
• 41:16
  I'm going to help you out. Red Sox fire Alex Cora ESP NS
• 41:20
  Jeff Passan reports that the Boston Red Sox have fired their
• 41:24
  manager, Alex Cora after seven seasons with the team.
• 41:27
  They fired him twice, actually, but it's a whole nother story.
• 41:30
  Suspended the first time he was fired.
• 41:32
  Five other coaches were also fired, including three different
• 41:36
  hitting coaches, third base coach Kyle Hudson and bench
• 41:39
  coach Ramon Vasquez. Red Sox President Sam Kennedy
• 41:44
  said that the decision to fire Cora was entirely made by the
• 41:48
  chief of chief officer of baseball Craig Breslow, and the
• 41:53
  decision was made Saturday morning after their fourth
• 41:57
  straight loss, including being swept by the Yankees.
• 42:00
  Breslow and Kennedy, along with owner John Henry, yeah, that
• 42:04
  idiot, flew to Baltimore to announce the firing to firing to
• 42:09
  the team after the Red Sox 17 one blowout win over the Orioles
• 42:14
  on Saturday. Trevor Story took shots at Craig
• 42:17
  Breslow and the organization, saying he questions the
• 42:21
  direction the team is going in and that he believed Breslow's
• 42:26
  answer to why he fired 5 different coaches was
• 42:30
  unsatisfactory. Relief pitcher Garrett Whitlock
• 42:33
  said that Breslow, Kennedy and Henry only talked amongst each
• 42:38
  other for about 10 minutes before making the decision and
• 42:43
  didn't even consult any of the other players.
• 42:46
  The Red Sox were 10 and 17 when they made the move to fire Cora
• 42:51
  and decided to promote their AAA manager and former MLB third
• 42:56
  baseman Chad Tracy to to take over as an intern manager.
• 43:02
  I'm sorry. This is what they're selling to
• 43:05
  their fans. For all you Red Sox fans, I feel
• 43:10
  bad for you guys, Chad Tracy. That's that's what they're going
• 43:14
  to buy into all season long. You are 27 games in, I'm sorry,
• 43:20
  28 games or 29 games into the season, 30 games.
• 43:24
  Let's let's just throw a number, a round Number here. 30 games
• 43:27
  into the season. You fire your coach, Alex Korra
• 43:32
  before the season even took off. The season doesn't start until
• 43:36
  40 games into the season. And your excuse is, well, we, we
• 43:42
  wanted to make a move. We, we had to make this move.
• 43:46
  You didn't give any reasons and what direction you're going.
• 43:50
  But your direction is, hey, we're going to give you a former
• 43:53
  third baseman who nobody knows anything about.
• 43:57
  And his last name, you know what they should call Chad Tracy?
• 44:00
  Dick Tracy, because he's nothing but a Dick.
• 44:03
  He's a Dick hanging from a long strapping.
• 44:07
  You know what I'm not going to say because I have kids
• 44:09
  listening to the show, but you know where I'm going at.
• 44:13
  I think this is absolutely ridiculous.
• 44:16
  And to me, it's not the manager, Alex Kerr.
• 44:20
  Won a world. Series did he not, not only as a
• 44:23
  an assistant manager with the cheating Astro team, but as a
• 44:29
  head coach, as a head manager for the Boston Red Sox.
• 44:33
  And this is what they're selling.
• 44:35
  This is what this organization is selling to the players as
• 44:38
  your shortstop, your lead guy, one of your captains of your
• 44:43
  team, Trevor Story comes out and says Craig Breslow and the
• 44:47
  organization don't know what they're doing.
• 44:50
  They have no clue. It's unsatisfactory.
• 44:54
  I, I, I, I, I know there's a lot of Red Sox fans listening to the
• 44:58
  show right now and probably you're going to listen to my
• 45:00
  take care. So here's my take.
• 45:04
  And it it this is this is coming from a Yankee fan, but I'm not
• 45:07
  I'm not going to take shots at Alex Kor because I can't blame
• 45:10
  Alex Kor for this. I look at the organization, I
• 45:15
  look at the players, I look at everything that there you had a
• 45:19
  guy your your outfielder was in Minnesota giving the fans the
• 45:22
  finger. OK, Duran was giving the finger.
• 45:28
  What was it a week and a half ago?
• 45:29
  It was the story was a lead story all over sports that this
• 45:33
  man, because obviously he has mental issues.
• 45:38
  You're you're a professional athlete, you're a professional
• 45:42
  baseball player. And I'll give, I'll give Alex
• 45:45
  Gore a little credit because after the game, Alex Gore took
• 45:48
  responsibility for that. I'm the manager, I'm the leader
• 45:53
  of this team. My team should be following
• 45:55
  through and, and, and understand that this is this is a team
• 45:58
  sport. This is a fan sport.
• 46:01
  There's kids coming to the ball game.
• 46:04
  That was unsatisfactory. Alex Korra was a man about
• 46:07
  things. Alex Korra has been a man about
• 46:10
  what this team has done over the last couple of weeks.
• 46:14
  They don't show up to games. What the Yankees did to them is
• 46:17
  wipe them on the damn concrete. It was they might as well play
• 46:22
  on concrete because the turf for the the grass that they're
• 46:25
  playing on, they can't hit on. At least if they're playing on
• 46:28
  cemento bounce in different places, they'll hit a rock is
• 46:31
  something because it seems like the Red Sox don't know what
• 46:34
  they're doing on the baseball field.
• 46:35
  There's more errors, there's more mistakes going on.
• 46:38
  They can't hit. Anthony comes out and calls his
• 46:40
  teammates out. Their young superstar, their
• 46:42
  young stud who's on Team USA come out in early in the season.
• 46:47
  It took shots at the team that they're not playing hard.
• 46:49
  They're not seeing the ball they should be playing, playing the
• 46:52
  numbers, playing the pitch clock, playing the pitch
• 46:55
  pitches, seeing the pitches right, not forcing and swinging
• 46:58
  at the first pitch. This is embarrassing.
• 47:04
  And then the fans threatening Cam Schlidler coming out and
• 47:12
  saying all these derogatory things about a guy that was born
• 47:15
  in Massachusetts, grew up as a Boston Red Sox fan and because
• 47:20
  of what he did to the Red Sox in the playoffs to eliminate the
• 47:24
  play, pretty much the Red Sox last year and put up 11
• 47:27
  strikeouts and completely dominated them.
• 47:30
  You're going to threaten this kid because he's a Yankee and
• 47:34
  because he's coming home to Boston?
• 47:37
  I'm sorry, I'm not taking shots at the fans.
• 47:41
  I'm not going to do it because everybody knows what I feel
• 47:43
  about the Boston Red Sox fans just as much as I I would say
• 47:46
  about the Yankee fans. That is disgraceful.
• 47:51
  And if you're a Boston Red Sox fan, you want to punish John
• 47:55
  Henry, who really doesn't give a crap about this team.
• 47:59
  He hasn't give a crap about this team for years.
• 48:04
  He bought a soccer team. He's invested all his money in
• 48:07
  the soccer team more than this baseball team.
• 48:11
  You had a star for star third baseman that you paid $300
• 48:16
  million that you forced out for Bregman, and then Bregman didn't
• 48:20
  even resign with you last year in the off season he goes to the
• 48:24
  Cubs. What kind of crap is that?
• 48:28
  What excuse do you have on that? You bought into Bregman, You
• 48:33
  gave up on the player that you paid $300 million who you
• 48:37
  wouldn't let go to the Mets. He goes to the Giants.
• 48:41
  You get nothing, absolutely nothing for the from the they
• 48:45
  already. Traded the top prospect in that
• 48:47
  deal to Milwaukee. It's embarrassing.
• 48:53
  This organization is falling apart right in front of every
• 48:56
  fans, feet and eyes from up and down.
• 49:00
  There's no excuse for this team, this organization, and the fact
• 49:03
  that you fired the manager, the guy that has LED this team to
• 49:06
  the promised land, has won a championship with this team, and
• 49:11
  you're going to just give up on him in 30 games?
• 49:15
  It's despicable. Yeah, and John Henry is
• 49:18
  definitely changed his tune of what he was in previous years
• 49:21
  when he was the owner. I always said that the Red Sox
• 49:23
  were one of those teams that were the one of the best
• 49:27
  strangely operating good teams I've seen in sports for a while
• 49:30
  when they were winning World Series in the most
• 49:32
  unconventional ways. I compared it a lot with the way
• 49:34
  that the Eagles, they do a lot of things now.
• 49:36
  They're more stable, but I'd say they usually do a lot of bold
• 49:39
  moves all at once. You think about it, when they
• 49:41
  got rid of Andy Reid and they hired Chip Kelly and they
• 49:44
  actually started doing well right away, and then they won a
• 49:45
  Super Bowl five years later. The Red Sox did the same thing.
• 49:47
  They fired Terry Francon after 2012.
• 49:49
  They win a World Series with John Farrell in 2013, which was
• 49:52
  the strangest one seed ever I've ever seen win a World Series.
• 49:56
  And then they tear it all down and they signed Pablo Sandoval
• 49:59
  and all those bad contractors and they go back down.
• 50:01
  They go back up again with Cora Grant said.
• 50:03
  I thought they were cheating at the time too.
• 50:05
  When Cora went over there. I thought they were going to get
• 50:06
  pushed worse than the Astros. I was wrong on that.
• 50:08
  I argued with Jeff at the time. Jeff, you won that one.
• 50:11
  But it's a strangely operating good team.
• 50:13
  But again, who's behind all that?
• 50:14
  John Henry and what? The last year when you were on
• 50:17
  your cruise, the Devers trade came out and I did the weekend
• 50:20
  crunch with Josh and he was mentioning because.
• 50:22
  I got a text from Josh. I remember the cruise we were
• 50:25
  on. I got it.
• 50:26
  I remember. That was the time.
• 50:28
  If I'm not mistaken, that was the cruise with the Chiefs,
• 50:30
  right? No, that was last.
• 50:32
  That was the last. That was in 2023.
• 50:34
  I remember that one. Yeah.
• 50:35
  That was wanted to throw, throw something at the TV.
• 50:38
  Well, I I was about to, I had a drink in my hands, a drink of
• 50:41
  water, and I almost threw it. I was seriously standing there
• 50:44
  because I'll never forget. Source.
• 50:46
  Gunner got called for a penalty when he didn't have a penalty.
• 50:49
  And the and The Jets were going to win that game and they called
• 50:52
  the penalty on him and which gave the Kansas City Chiefs a
• 50:54
  chance to take the ball right down the field and win the game.
• 50:57
  Right. It was like Zach Wilson's best
• 50:58
  game of career play. Patrick Mahogan, 297 yards.
• 51:01
  Please stop, stop, stop, stop. I don't hear anything.
• 51:04
  But yeah, this this was your cruise last year and the Devers
• 51:07
  trade came out later that week. And I I did the weekend crunch
• 51:10
  with Josh. And Josh is a big Premier League
• 51:12
  fan. He's an Arsenal fan.
• 51:12
  He would say he was going through how much he real John
• 51:15
  Henry really cares about Liverpool more than he cares
• 51:17
  about the Red Sox. He's right.
• 51:19
  And it was a really distinct difference that you could tell
• 51:21
  now with the way this new ownership is going and the way
• 51:24
  this team has really changed from what they were.
• 51:26
  Now, let me ask you a question. You bring in Theo Epstein, He
• 51:30
  leaves baseball. He was the VP of player
• 51:32
  personnel. Whatever he was doing over there
• 51:34
  for baseball, he comes in, he's a partial owner now of this
• 51:36
  organization. Why isn't he involved with this
• 51:40
  this three man conversation? Because to me, if I'm Theo
• 51:45
  Epstein, who I think is one of the smartest baseball minds
• 51:48
  baseball has seen in about 40 years, this guy is one of the
• 51:52
  most intelligent people in baseball.
• 51:54
  You brought this guy. He's a partner in this
• 51:57
  organization. Why isn't he making these
• 51:59
  decisions? Why isn't he out there figuring
• 52:02
  out what works and what doesn't? Because to me, all I see what
• 52:06
  Theo Epstein is doing is collecting a paycheck.
• 52:09
  That's all I'm seeing. And if I were the Boston Red Sox
• 52:13
  today, tomorrow or the next day, I'm reaching out to Theo FC and
• 52:17
  asking him to take over this team, become the GM of this
• 52:20
  team, and rebuild this debacle. Because this organization has
• 52:23
  been an absolute debacle since he's walked away from it.
• 52:27
  He went to Chicago. He wins another World Series
• 52:29
  with a team that hasn't won a World Series in 100 years.
• 52:33
  Yeah. And I was going to say too, like
• 52:34
  Heim Bloom was over there for a while and that's when they trade
• 52:37
  it all away. A lot of those core pieces from
• 52:39
  2018 and a lot of people thought he was the problem at the time.
• 52:42
  But again, you're when Henry has that much control and we've
• 52:44
  talked about in other sports too, and the ownership gets in
• 52:46
  the way so much and it deters a lot of these players.
• 52:48
  I'm not saying Craig Branslow is off the hook either, because he
• 52:51
  hasn't done very good things either.
• 52:52
  But they have a lot of good young players.
• 52:54
  They have a good player development system that I think
• 52:56
  has worked. Now the pitchers have to stay
• 52:58
  healthy. That's a big key.
• 52:59
  And obviously Crochets had a bad start to.
• 53:00
  The year, If I was the Guardians right now, I would I would bring
• 53:04
  Theo Epstein in because he's been doing it with every other
• 53:07
  organization. I would reach out to Theo
• 53:09
  Epstein, sell the whatever you own, whatever piece you own, 5%
• 53:12
  of Tom Brady's 10% leave the organization.
• 53:16
  Go over there to the Guardians, win them a championship.
• 53:19
  They'll give you 25% of that organization.
• 53:21
  Why not spin the wheel? Make the deal it?
• 53:24
  Might be the second best team in the American League after the
• 53:26
  Yankees right now. Yeah, maybe worth a flyer.
• 53:27
  The Guardians are remarkable. They're a remarkable
• 53:30
  organization because it seems like and right now they're
• 53:34
  playing great baseball, but they usually are horrible in the
• 53:37
  first half and for some reason in the second-half, they're the
• 53:39
  hottest team in baseball. They win like 50 out of the next
• 53:42
  70 games. It's it's ridiculous how good
• 53:44
  the Guardian. And now the Guardians are
• 53:46
  playing great baseball. Now they're going to the
• 53:48
  second-half and they just take, you know, take off.
• 53:50
  Yeah. And and they, they could be a
• 53:52
  World Series contending team. They have a great bullpen right
• 53:54
  now. They always do.
• 53:55
  Yeah. And.
• 53:55
  That's what I was going to get at 2 with the Red Sox.
• 53:57
  I think the American League, probably outside of Cleveland
• 54:00
  and the Yankees, and I would say the Rays that have played well.
• 54:02
  There's a lot of mediocrity in it.
• 54:04
  Which is another team that's very surprising right now, the
• 54:06
  Rays, right and. That's why I think there's still
• 54:09
  an OP opening to make it to work for the Red Sox.
• 54:11
  And that's why you can't have these players like Trevor Story
• 54:13
  get frustrated like Duran, like you were saying, get frustrated
• 54:16
  in certain instances. And they might have need this
• 54:19
  kind of culture change. They're they're not like the
• 54:20
  Mets. They're.
• 54:21
  Not OK. So, so I'm sorry to cut you off.
• 54:23
  Trevor Story is right now hitting 198.
• 54:26
  Duran is hitting 189. The two players that are opening
• 54:31
  their big mouths are the two players that are not even
• 54:33
  hitting over 200. And these are two players that
• 54:37
  are All Stars. These are two players that,
• 54:39
  well, Trevor Story is who got paid a lot of money to come
• 54:42
  here. And he is not wrong about Alex
• 54:46
  Gore. He's not.
• 54:47
  But I don't want to hear it from him.
• 54:49
  I want to hear it from Abreu. I want to hear it from the guy
• 54:52
  that's actually hitting the ball.
• 54:54
  That's what I want to. I want to hear from my best
• 54:56
  player right right now. And by the way, it seems like
• 54:59
  Roman Anthony's got a lot to say, but he's hitting 217.
• 55:02
  The guy hasn't hit. He wasn't hitting in the the
• 55:04
  Baseball Classic and he the WBC and is not hitting now.
• 55:08
  Yeah, William Brady was hitting. I think he was on that Venezuela
• 55:10
  team. It, it seems like it's Venezuela
• 55:13
  all the way. I mean, it's like Chip and Dale
• 55:16
  rescue Rangers here, man. I mean, seriously, I am lost,
• 55:19
  man. I, I, I, I feel like everybody
• 55:22
  said that the Yankees, they're, they're looking like a team
• 55:25
  that's going to eventually fall apart.
• 55:27
  They have old management still there, Brian Cashman, get rid of
• 55:32
  him, walk away from him. But the Yankees seem to find a
• 55:35
  way to win games. They seem to find a way to make
• 55:38
  the playoffs every single year. They they slow, slow, slowly and
• 55:43
  quietly make very small moves in the offseason that everybody was
• 55:47
  shaking their head saying, Oh, well, these aren't good enough
• 55:50
  to win a championship. But the Yankees were on A8
• 55:53
  game-winning streak. They finally lose a game.
• 55:56
  Aaron Judge is actually not having the season that he he was
• 56:00
  having last year. But he's it looks like he's
• 56:02
  still going to hit home runs. He's still going to get his
• 56:04
  RBIs. He's still going to everybody
• 56:06
  else is hitting. I mean, Rice right now is
• 56:08
  looking like he's looking like Babe Ruth right now.
• 56:11
  I mean, it's unbelievable what the Yankees are doing right now.
• 56:15
  And it's not even their stars showing up to these games.
• 56:18
  It is pathetic. This, this garbage is pathetic.
• 56:22
  And this organization should be bringing Theo Epstein in these
• 56:26
  conversation. John Harry should be away.
• 56:29
  Keep that man away from this team in this organization.
• 56:32
  That man has done nothing good to this organization in 10
• 56:37
  years. He has brought GM after GM.
• 56:40
  How many GMs have they had in the last 10 years?
• 56:42
  Seriously, it's got to be about 3 or 4.
• 56:44
  Yeah, I think 3 since I got rid of it, I can't.
• 56:46
  I remember the first guy's name, but they was Bloom.
• 56:48
  And Theo Epstein was there. Theo Epstein was there for
• 56:51
  almost 8 years and he won 3 championships.
• 56:56
  I I mean, that's winning. That is a smart man.
• 57:01
  That's the guy you brought in as a partner.
• 57:04
  Why isn't he making these decisions?
• 57:06
  Why isn't he at that little crowded management table making
• 57:11
  decisions? The smart man that actually
• 57:14
  knows how to build a baseball team and win it's.
• 57:17
  Pathetic. Yeah.
• 57:18
  And you mentioned a lot of these things, like they have to stay
• 57:21
  away with Henry and Breslow, especially for making these
• 57:24
  irrational comments we saw last year, obviously during that
• 57:26
  whole devour saga, which was ugly.
• 57:28
  I didn't even get to Breslow. Yeah, which was ugly for about 5
• 57:31
  months and Breslow I think really made it worse.
• 57:33
  Rob Manfred, bitch let. Me tell you.
• 57:36
  And I know, I know Jabba and Goody last year on our show was
• 57:39
  mentioning a lot that having players in the front office can
• 57:42
  be a good thing, which I do agree to an extent.
• 57:44
  But I think it's different when you go to this level of extreme
• 57:46
  and you have a lot of players like Devers that got disturbed
• 57:49
  in the most extreme level. And I give the young players a
• 57:51
  lot of credit for them still being able to be a good team
• 57:53
  amidst all that, all that drama that they didn't need to bring
• 57:56
  on. And in previous years, you saw
• 57:58
  the Red Sox overcome that drama with their veteran guys, and now
• 58:00
  they're trying to deal with their young guys.
• 58:01
  But it's just harder when you have a lot of these veteran guys
• 58:03
  are going against the green now and you create a team now that's
• 58:06
  11:00 and 7:00 17 still trying to battle in a lot of ways.
• 58:09
  But you also have young guys like you said, William Bray you
• 58:12
  that's hitting. Look at the rookie you top
• 58:13
  prospect Connelly early pitch yesterday pitched very well
• 58:16
  amidst all this drama that's now happened to them and they have
• 58:19
  these young players striving. These veteran players are
• 58:22
  deterred by the fact that Breslow just went behind their
• 58:24
  back and did nothing. And John Henry is continuing to
• 58:27
  be just the only caring about is Liverpool team that wins some
• 58:31
  Premier League championships. But the Red Sox haven't won
• 58:32
  since that 2018 title. Exactly.
• 58:35
  So that's the that's what I was going to say.
• 58:37
  I was like, they're not winning. It's inconsistent with the
• 58:40
  bullpens. It's inconsistent managing the
• 58:42
  team talent everywhere. So I don't see, you know what
• 58:46
  everybody knows once you play a robbery, which quote UN quote,
• 58:49
  New York Knicks. I mean New York Yankees here I
• 58:52
  am talking like you tonight. New York Yankees is the robbery.
• 58:58
  Talking about me. Called the Knicks Yankees
• 59:00
  earlier. Oh so cuz.
• 59:02
  I messed up with the Knicks. I mean, it's completely
• 59:05
  different it. Was.
• 59:06
  New York is different from Boston, buddy.
• 59:09
  New York is different from Boston.
• 59:10
  Don't throw the Boston and New York in terms of questioning.
• 59:15
  I'm sorry but I'm just I have to add that.
• 59:18
  Yeah. So without inconsistent and them
• 59:20
  losing and then on top of that getting swept by the Yankees.
• 59:24
  And then, you know, we talked about this on a previous episode
• 59:27
  about how baseball is going analytic.
• 59:30
  There's a there's a lot of people in front office that, you
• 59:33
  know, keep tracks of these things.
• 59:34
  And when they see that, yeah, you know, the manager is
• 59:37
  inconsistent. He doesn't really have control
• 59:38
  over the team. You got to believe that they're
• 59:40
  going to make an adjustment in very soon, just like they do
• 59:44
  with any team that basically promotes analytics over talent
• 59:48
  and. Every team promotes analytics in
• 59:50
  baseball. It's the biggest thing.
• 59:52
  Even the ones that are small market, even the ones that are
• 59:54
  not considered the home run teams.
• 59:56
  We talked about it last year with a lot of guests that were
• 59:58
  with the Milwaukee Brewers. Like the Milwaukee Brewers are
• 1:00:00
  not known as this flashy power hitting team type thing, but
• 1:00:03
  they still really use analytics to their best advantage in other
• 1:00:06
  parts of their player development system and they go
• 1:00:08
  into this year as the number one farm system in baseball.
• 1:00:10
  I got a question for all you fans, Craig Breslow.
• 1:00:13
  All right. I, I mean, anybody who knows who
• 1:00:17
  he is, he was a pitcher in the major leagues.
• 1:00:20
  He was a left-handed pitcher. I remember him more with the
• 1:00:22
  Blue Jays. But I, I know he's a Connecticut
• 1:00:25
  born guy. He grew up a Red Sox fan.
• 1:00:28
  Why are they taking advice from this man?
• 1:00:32
  This guy career career is absolutely putrid.
• 1:00:36
  I mean, Jabba has better numbers than this guy, all right, 23 and
• 1:00:41
  33.45 ERA. The guy is played in 576 games.
• 1:00:46
  This is the guy they're taking advice from.
• 1:00:48
  I understand if it's Rodger Clemens, I understand if it's
• 1:00:51
  Andy Pettitte or I understand if it's anybody.
• 1:00:54
  How about Pedro Martinez? How about bringing a real
• 1:00:56
  baseball mine in that actually knows what he's doing, is
• 1:00:59
  actually a smart man and actually knows what Boston Red
• 1:01:02
  Sox organization knows how to win and knows how to run and and
• 1:01:06
  and be a consider. How about this bring Kurt
• 1:01:09
  Schilling in. He's more controversial than
• 1:01:11
  anybody. He knows baseball.
• 1:01:14
  I listen to I've listened to some of the things that he's
• 1:01:16
  been on podcasts. You have this man Craig Breslow
• 1:01:22
  making decisions like this. This is embarrassing and you
• 1:01:27
  have your own players throwing you under the bus now.
• 1:01:31
  I mean, how long does it go? How long is this going to take
• 1:01:35
  until the organization, John Henry and management, Sam
• 1:01:38
  Kennedy decides that this guy is an absolute ridiculous I?
• 1:01:44
  I want to say I don't want to use the word because I know
• 1:01:45
  Speedy doesn't like it. I wanted to do it, but I I'm
• 1:01:48
  going to be very nice on it. The guy's an idiot.
• 1:01:52
  Isn't it great? Isn't this just great I've been
• 1:01:55
  waiting for since I guess 2004 for them to stink again?
• 1:02:00
  This is wonderful. Even when they had a down season
• 1:02:03
  before you knew they were still good.
• 1:02:05
  They had that core. It was Dombrowski was the GM
• 1:02:08
  back in the day. You said it best.
• 1:02:09
  Dombrowski. But he was the best one they
• 1:02:12
  had. He he left after the
• 1:02:14
  championship in 2018. So they had one more year he was
• 1:02:17
  gone and then they replaced him with High in Bloom.
• 1:02:20
  I'll give him the hub from For the People and I'll say, well,
• 1:02:23
  I'll tell you what, he was horrible.
• 1:02:25
  That guy, one of the worst GM's and he succeeded a worse one in
• 1:02:30
  Craig Breslow. This guy's got an ego problem,
• 1:02:32
  Errol. This is what happened.
• 1:02:34
  He did not want to deal with Cora having more managerial
• 1:02:37
  power than the average manager does today.
• 1:02:40
  That has to take all their stuff from the front office from him.
• 1:02:44
  And that's what happened. You could see the fighting all
• 1:02:47
  season. Guess what?
• 1:02:47
  Trevor Story, he's on the market tonight.
• 1:02:51
  He can be traded within a couple of days.
• 1:02:53
  It's going to be the Breslow vision and it's going to be
• 1:02:56
  terrible. I'm here for it.
• 1:02:57
  I love the fact that they're going to stink, that their
• 1:02:59
  prospects were all overrated, like they always said about the
• 1:03:02
  Yankees prospects. I can't wait to you Boston fans
• 1:03:06
  have to deal with this. I've got this place disaster.
• 1:03:08
  I've got something for you. I if I met Craig Breslow, I
• 1:03:11
  would say Craig Breslow, you an ego problem.
• 1:03:14
  This is Quinton Coppols. Quinton Coppols, Craig Breslow.
• 1:03:17
  Nice to meet you. It's.
• 1:03:19
  The. Whole Celtic The perfect
• 1:03:21
  candidate. The perfect candidate.
• 1:03:24
  And you squeeze his head like a melon.
• 1:03:26
  OK, 'cause I, I honest, honestly, this, this is, this is
• 1:03:31
  really funny. This is, this is something that
• 1:03:33
  you would not expect from the Boston Red Sox organization.
• 1:03:36
  They've been a very smart organization over the years.
• 1:03:40
  I think they're, they were very well run when Theo Epstein was
• 1:03:44
  there. Dombrowski is an idiot.
• 1:03:46
  I don't care if they won. They, they bought players to win
• 1:03:49
  that championship that that's, that's why they won and, and
• 1:03:52
  things had to fall, right. And Alex Cora has been a really
• 1:03:55
  good manager. If you look at his numbers, how
• 1:03:59
  many, how many guys, how many managers in the league have
• 1:04:02
  better numbers than Alex Cora does in his career as a head
• 1:04:05
  manager? I mean, seriously, you, you, you
• 1:04:09
  look at him, he's a top five guy.
• 1:04:11
  He is going to be on the market next year.
• 1:04:13
  He's going to get a job. Somebody's going to hire him, so
• 1:04:18
  maybe the Astros, just probably. Maybe the Mets.
• 1:04:22
  No, that's a good idea. They're not going.
• 1:04:24
  To do that, I'm telling I was telling it to Nathan in the
• 1:04:26
  private. They're not going to do that
• 1:04:28
  because they're going to look bad for passing on Carlos
• 1:04:30
  Beltran because of the cheating scandal in Houston that came out
• 1:04:33
  right at that time when they were all ready to hire him.
• 1:04:35
  And then they got rid of them. And the Red Sox did the same
• 1:04:37
  thing. They suspended Cora, and then
• 1:04:38
  they brought him back in 2020 to 2021.
• 1:04:40
  So they're not going to do it. Yeah.
• 1:04:42
  That's that in the Stearns is an egomaniac like Breslow as well
• 1:04:46
  and would never allow now Cora to have the type of control that
• 1:04:49
  he would want to have as a manager.
• 1:04:51
  It's a shame because those are the types of managers that the
• 1:04:53
  players love to play for. It's obvious every single time.
• 1:04:57
  It's not these MIT nerds from, you know, Lenny from NIT that
• 1:05:01
  invented the torpedo bat in a lab a couple of years ago that's
• 1:05:05
  telling you how to play baseball.
• 1:05:06
  Job with an advocate. You know, and, and a ChatGPT
• 1:05:10
  math program, like, I mean, come on, like that.
• 1:05:13
  This is what it's become. And some teams are embracing it.
• 1:05:17
  And it seems like John Henry, who just cares about the dollars
• 1:05:20
  and cents right now, has embraced a guy who's just going
• 1:05:23
  to treat it like a business, not a sport.
• 1:05:24
  Not a I'm going to help them out.
• 1:05:25
  I'm going to help them out. I'm going to buy a year's worth
• 1:05:28
  the supply of Yankee, you know, Kleenex, you know, nice, nice
• 1:05:33
  napkins. And I'll send it over there to
• 1:05:35
  the Red Sox fans and and maybe we'll have a box for every one
• 1:05:39
  of those fans for 55,000 people. Because honestly, as an
• 1:05:44
  organization and I, I feel bad for the Boston fans because the
• 1:05:47
  Boston Red Sox fans are to me so dedicated to their team.
• 1:05:51
  They show up every game, They sell out almost every single
• 1:05:55
  game. Fenway Park is one of the nicest
• 1:05:57
  stadiums to go to. I'm not a, I'm not a fan of the
• 1:06:00
  fans, but at least they're they're, they, they're the
• 1:06:03
  backbone. Of that organization.
• 1:06:04
  Yeah, they're the backbone of that organization.
• 1:06:07
  And to see this organization completely fall apart 202829
• 1:06:12
  games into the season and just give up on the season because
• 1:06:16
  that's what they did. And they added Chad Tracy, Dick
• 1:06:20
  Tracy to to run that organization.
• 1:06:24
  I mean, it's I. But I mean, I would, I would,
• 1:06:27
  I'm, I'm celebrating just like everybody else.
• 1:06:30
  I'm not celebrating anything. Listen when the red.
• 1:06:32
  Sox, listen, as a Yankee fan, you got to.
• 1:06:34
  Celebrate. No.
• 1:06:34
  Because when the Red Sox are bad, it's not fun.
• 1:06:37
  It's. Not fun.
• 1:06:38
  That's what I said. That's the only part that we
• 1:06:40
  missed. But we who won't take an easier
• 1:06:42
  road to the World Series, it's like.
• 1:06:44
  Not dude. The Yankees don't have to worry
• 1:06:47
  about the Red Sox. That's not the team to worry
• 1:06:49
  about. Right.
• 1:06:49
  No, no, one less team don't have to worry about.
• 1:06:52
  And I told everybody, this is the year that the Blue Jays are
• 1:06:55
  going to fall off. They spend money.
• 1:06:56
  I have that. So they spend money and then
• 1:06:59
  they fall off. They're not the same team as
• 1:07:01
  they were last year. They wanted this ultimate No,
• 1:07:04
  it's true. He did me.
• 1:07:05
  Earl agrees with you speaking, you jinx.
• 1:07:07
  No, my playoff picks, My playoff picks were.
• 1:07:10
  Wait a second. When I make picks, my friend,
• 1:07:13
  I'm actually on. So I have Colorado win the NHL
• 1:07:16
  Stanley Cup before the season started.
• 1:07:18
  I had it. So you're going to tell me I
• 1:07:20
  made picks and all that other stuff.
• 1:07:22
  I also going into the playoffs, I had seat Seattle going all the
• 1:07:25
  way to to the the Super Bowl can.
• 1:07:27
  We verify that fish. You can verify whatever you
• 1:07:29
  want, it's not a lie I believe. That he definitely had the
• 1:07:32
  Avalanche one, I remember that vividly.
• 1:07:34
  The Seattle one? Speedy, probably.
• 1:07:36
  I thought you had the Eagles going back.
• 1:07:37
  Thank you. No, I didn't.
• 1:07:38
  Thank you. No, I didn't.
• 1:07:41
  No idea, I know you had. Buffalo in the AFC.
• 1:07:42
  I had Buffalo, I had Buffalo, I had Buffalo going.
• 1:07:46
  In. Going into the playoffs, going
• 1:07:48
  into the playoffs, I had Seattle and Buffalo.
• 1:07:52
  That's what I had. Oh my gosh, I did.
• 1:07:54
  And you want to know something? Buffalo should have been in the
• 1:07:56
  Super Bowl. Yes, they should have.
• 1:07:58
  They got robbed. They absolutely got robbed.
• 1:08:01
  They got robbed. They got robbed.
• 1:08:03
  That was not an interception. That was catch by coach.
• 1:08:06
  We should be billionaires. Yeah, we're going to be after I
• 1:08:10
  smack you around, you know? I love that you could be a
• 1:08:15
  billionaire and just waste money on Sonny Gray in the offseason.
• 1:08:18
  Yeah, look at these. Look at these moves they made.
• 1:08:21
  Look at these moves. Sonny Gray.
• 1:08:22
  I'm pretty sure he's already hurt.
• 1:08:23
  They had. They get it.
• 1:08:25
  Johann Oviedo to be in the rotation.
• 1:08:28
  I'm pretty sure he's terrible. What a name.
• 1:08:30
  He's only a back end guy. They're they have the younger
• 1:08:33
  guys that are when they're healthy.
• 1:08:34
  But still not good. Ranger Suarez is a good pitcher.
• 1:08:39
  He's having a good. He's pitching really well
• 1:08:41
  tonight, but he's been up and down.
• 1:08:43
  He's someone who doesn't rely on velocity, so.
• 1:08:45
  Great playoff pitcher. Great playoff.
• 1:08:47
  He's he's really, really good, but he throws 91 right and guys
• 1:08:52
  like that only have another year or two left that they can stay
• 1:08:54
  over 90 and then it's not what they do but doesn't work as well
• 1:08:57
  anymore. He'll go and so.
• 1:08:58
  That's a five year deal, but five years, 130 million for your
• 1:09:03
  long reliever. Now look at these deals Breslow
• 1:09:06
  was making this offseason. It's just terrible.
• 1:09:08
  They added Wilson Contreras, who doesn't play the field really
• 1:09:11
  anymore. Really good bats still, but he's
• 1:09:14
  ADH, he's ADH now officially basically right.
• 1:09:17
  He'll play. Did he play any first?
• 1:09:18
  He might play a little first. He's terrible and they got Caleb
• 1:09:20
  Durbin, who I'm mad that they they got, but he hasn't been
• 1:09:23
  good yet either. So and IKF and they signed IKEA
• 1:09:29
  IKF. That was their offseason.
• 1:09:31
  Two future Yankee killers. Come on, IKF.
• 1:09:34
  Raise it poor. IKF that actually went to the
• 1:09:37
  World Series with the Blue Jays last year actually played well
• 1:09:40
  and now sucks for the Red Sox. Wonderful.
• 1:09:44
  Absolute home runs. Thank you.
• 1:09:45
  Breslow. If I was a Breslow fan, but I'm
• 1:09:48
  not, so I'd smack him around and put my foot in his ass because
• 1:09:52
  this is absolutely ridiculous. And if I'm Theo Epstein right
• 1:09:56
  now, I'd sell my piece of the team and get the hell out of
• 1:09:58
  there because I there's nothing that's and everybody, everything
• 1:10:02
  that I've read is he's been working more.
• 1:10:05
  Theo Epstein's been working more with the soccer team than he has
• 1:10:07
  with the baseball team, which is a problem right now.
• 1:10:11
  Soccer's big money, man. It's not the point.
• 1:10:13
  That's not that's not the point. It is.
• 1:10:15
  You own both of them. You got it.
• 1:10:18
  That's. Similar.
• 1:10:18
  You own a piece of the Red Sox, the organization that you helped
• 1:10:23
  beat the Bambito Curse. That's what you did, and you
• 1:10:26
  didn't do it once. You did it three times.
• 1:10:30
  That's what you did. The Red Sox didn't win a
• 1:10:32
  championship for almost 100 years, 100 years, and this man
• 1:10:38
  found a way to put a team together.
• 1:10:40
  He brought Curt Schilling in there.
• 1:10:42
  He had Pedro Martinez, he had all these guys.
• 1:10:44
  He built this roster. Ramirez, you had.
• 1:10:48
  You had Big Poppy. You built your teeth.
• 1:10:52
  You had, to me, one of the more dominant forces.
• 1:10:56
  And then you decide to leave baseball because honestly, I'll
• 1:11:00
  tell you this straight out. If Theo Epstein was still there
• 1:11:04
  working for baseball in 2028, when Rob Manfred or man ass his
• 1:11:12
  contract's up, Theo Epstein takes that job.
• 1:11:15
  He's running baseball. He is 100% running baseball.
• 1:11:20
  Tony Larussa was too old. That's why he stepped down.
• 1:11:22
  As we all know how many people got into the Hall of Fame
• 1:11:25
  because of Tony. Joe Torre is getting up there in
• 1:11:28
  age. He's obviously not doing so well
• 1:11:32
  as as what, a baseball VP of baseball operations right now.
• 1:11:36
  I think, I think that's his position right now.
• 1:11:39
  There's nothing that tells me as a if you're a Red Sox fan that
• 1:11:46
  this isn't going to tip and it's going to tip bad.
• 1:11:49
  And they have a good young core of players.
• 1:11:51
  They do. They have a bunch of guys.
• 1:11:53
  But what's it going to take when, when eventually Anthony
• 1:11:56
  decides I don't want to be here, I don't want to play for this
• 1:11:59
  organization, Trade me. And for, for what he's worth, he
• 1:12:03
  just signed a long term deal, $100 million.
• 1:12:06
  And it's a very affordable contract where he can go and,
• 1:12:11
  and you can get a lot back for him because if he goes in there
• 1:12:13
  and he tells ownership that I listen, I don't want to be here
• 1:12:16
  anymore. I, I, I don't want to be working
• 1:12:19
  and playing for this organization.
• 1:12:20
  That's been an absolute debacle. You don't keep them out.
• 1:12:23
  You don't go to the players, you don't talk to the players before
• 1:12:25
  you decide to fire our manager before the season even started.
• 1:12:29
  You've given up on a season before the season even starting.
• 1:12:31
  You hired Dick Tracy to run this organization.
• 1:12:38
  Man name tag Tracy Man. Yeah, I'm lost.
• 1:12:42
  He's going to hear this and he's going to find you.
• 1:12:46
  I don't you think I care? This is This is.
• 1:12:49
  I don't know. I don't.
• 1:12:50
  I don't. I don't.
• 1:12:50
  This is pathetic. I, I don't care.
• 1:12:53
  This is pathetic. I feel bad.
• 1:12:55
  I feel bad for the Red Sox fans. I actually feel bad for you
• 1:12:59
  guys, for all the Red Sox fans listening to the show or going
• 1:13:03
  to listen to the show when the show is over.
• 1:13:06
  My heart goes out to you guys. It really does.
• 1:13:09
  No, it doesn't. I don't care.
• 1:13:11
  I don't care. Screw the Red Sox.
• 1:13:14
  Screw the Red Sox fan. There you go.
• 1:13:16
  I'm sorry, I'm here. For it, let's go.
• 1:13:21
  I'm not going to beat around the Bush.
• 1:13:22
  The bushes already burned. Cute, cute.
• 1:13:24
  Don't worry about that. Our two most common claiming Red
• 1:13:28
  Sox fan listeners are now Mets fans.
• 1:13:30
  No doubt about it. Welcome.
• 1:13:34
  Welcome to the dungeon. It's a dungeon, all right.
• 1:13:38
  It is a dungeon. Speaking of dungeons, you know,
• 1:13:40
  we're we're waiting for a guest. Our guest is going to be coming
• 1:13:43
  in in just a few moments. But I do have a very special
• 1:13:47
  segment as we call this ladies, man, ladies and gentlemen.
• 1:13:51
  I don't know, should I, should I say it nice, speedy, or should I
• 1:13:54
  say it a little bit better? How about just give it a golf
• 1:13:56
  clap? That's what I'm going to do,
• 1:13:57
  Give it a golf clap. This deserves a golf clap.
• 1:14:02
  No doubt. Golf clap.
• 1:14:03
  Golf clap. Well, my golf clap goes to one
• 1:14:09
  guy. A guy that I have interested,
• 1:14:13
  I've been so interested in meeting over the last couple of
• 1:14:17
  weeks. A guy that is controversial, but
• 1:14:20
  a guy that I thought is going to have a great season with the
• 1:14:24
  Long Island Ducks. A guy that I believe is one of
• 1:14:27
  the best pitchers in all of baseball, not in the major
• 1:14:30
  leagues right now and should have a chance.
• 1:14:32
  And that goes to Trevor Bauer and I'll say this.
• 1:14:37
  Trevor Bauer, I saw his first game, I was there in the first
• 1:14:41
  game and I got a chance to see him pitch.
• 1:14:43
  He had eight strikeouts, 2 earned runs, 93 pitches, 53
• 1:14:47
  strikes that he pitched great. It was cold.
• 1:14:50
  It was 42°, but I knew, I knew that once it got warm that this
• 1:14:56
  guy is going to dominate for the Long Island Ducks.
• 1:14:59
  And this isn't the first no hitter.
• 1:15:00
  He's going to pitch guys. He's going to pitch multiple no
• 1:15:04
  hitters this year in this league.
• 1:15:07
  This guy's got 10 pitches. This guy is as dominant when he
• 1:15:12
  is on. He is unhittable, Unhittable and
• 1:15:17
  everybody. You could say you don't like
• 1:15:18
  him. You can say that he's
• 1:15:19
  controversial, he's mean, he's disrespectful, he doesn't know
• 1:15:23
  how to treat women. That's your decision to and
• 1:15:25
  that's your prerogative. My prerogative here is it's very
• 1:15:28
  strong. The guy is at right now pitching
• 1:15:31
  a 1.64 ERA in two games right now.
• 1:15:36
  He is pitching at such a high level and he hasn't even started
• 1:15:40
  guys. He has not even started this
• 1:15:42
  season, hasn't even started for this man, and he's already
• 1:15:44
  pitched a no hitter 7 innings, 7 innings of dominant pitching and
• 1:15:52
  everybody. It's only coming.
• 1:15:55
  We might see a perfect game this year.
• 1:15:58
  That's how good Trevor Bauer is. And baseball should be ashamed
• 1:16:02
  of themselves, shamed of them themselves.
• 1:16:05
  Think about it. Trevor Bauer won the Cy Young in
• 1:16:08
  Japan, won the Cy Young in Mexico, and this man still
• 1:16:16
  doesn't have a job in the major leagues.
• 1:16:19
  Doesn't make any sense. He knows he's being blackballed.
• 1:16:23
  I've interviewed him twice, not once, but twice already this
• 1:16:26
  season, and I'm going to interview him more.
• 1:16:28
  I'm try. I'm going to try to get him on
• 1:16:30
  the show. You know why?
• 1:16:31
  Because I love this man. I think this man personally is
• 1:16:36
  one of the more unique personalities that baseball
• 1:16:42
  should want back in the league. There is nothing wrong with this
• 1:16:46
  man. He speaks from his heart.
• 1:16:50
  He goes out there, plays hard, plays at a high level.
• 1:16:53
  He has such emotion. Who doesn't like an emotional
• 1:16:57
  personality that goes out there? The teammates call him uncle.
• 1:17:02
  He's 35 years old. He's taking a leadership role
• 1:17:05
  over there with the Ducks. He wants to come to America and
• 1:17:07
  play a front in front of all the American fans, sign autographs,
• 1:17:11
  go out there and play hard every single game.
• 1:17:16
  And Rob Manfred and every single team in baseball are has given
• 1:17:23
  up on this man, has given up on a person that deserves to be
• 1:17:26
  there, deserves to be at a high level.
• 1:17:28
  How many pitchers do you know in the major leagues today have 10
• 1:17:32
  pitches? Sweetie, we were talking about
• 1:17:34
  this. He's won a very few I would
• 1:17:36
  trust to believe that claim. 10 pitches and this guy is playing
• 1:17:42
  at such a high level right now and it's not even warm.
• 1:17:45
  It's not even hot. It's 62°.
• 1:17:48
  He pitched a no hitter in seven innings.
• 1:17:52
  I'm going to tell you this guys, this guy is probably going to
• 1:17:56
  pitch closer to 1 by the end of the season.
• 1:17:58
  He is going to have right now, he has, if I'm not mistaken, 17
• 1:18:02
  or 18 strikeouts in two games. If he pitches between 25 and 30
• 1:18:08
  games this year, the guy is going to absolutely have the
• 1:18:11
  strikeout record in in that division in the Long Island
• 1:18:14
  Ducks division. He is going to be probably have
• 1:18:18
  the best CRA any pitchers had in a 25 game or more season run.
• 1:18:24
  This guy is the best pitcher right now and I will tell you,
• 1:18:29
  I'll tell you this right now, if you want to throw this, throw
• 1:18:31
  this and let it stick. This guy would be a top ten
• 1:18:34
  pitcher right now in baseball if he was playing in the major
• 1:18:37
  leagues right now. It's a shame that he's never
• 1:18:39
  going to get a chance and he's he's taking that.
• 1:18:42
  He understands that, but I, I love it.
• 1:18:45
  I love what is going on right now, seeing a kid, seeing a guy
• 1:18:49
  actually show up to Long Island telling me he's loving his time
• 1:18:52
  here, getting a chance to eat the food and enjoy the people
• 1:18:56
  and the fans and the excitement of baseball here in New York.
• 1:19:01
  And I'm just happy he's here. So my golf clap goes to Trevor
• 1:19:04
  Bauer. 7 innings, no hitter, one walk.
• 1:19:10
  This guy is the best pitcher right now in my eyes, not only
• 1:19:15
  in long, not not only for the Long Island Ducks in in in that
• 1:19:20
  Baseball League. I can tell you right now he's
• 1:19:22
  one of the top ten top 15 pitches in baseball in the
• 1:19:26
  country. And you can sell that and you
• 1:19:29
  can throw that and hope that sticks because it's true.
• 1:19:32
  Sell that, baby. Congratulations to Trevor Bauer,
• 1:19:36
  I expect more from you. I expect to see maybe a perfect
• 1:19:39
  game. Maybe another three or four no
• 1:19:42
  hitters this year. I wouldn't even doubt it.
• 1:19:44
  I think the guy is that dominant.
• 1:19:45
  So congratulations to Trevor Bauer.
• 1:19:47
  I expect more from him and I expect him to be as elite as
• 1:19:52
  we've seen so far in two games. So that's my Golf Club.
• 1:19:56
  When we come back, ladies and gentlemen, we're going to have a
• 1:19:58
  very special guest. We will be talking to a long
• 1:20:02
  time New York Post baseball writer Ken Davidoff.
• 1:20:05
  He's got a book out. We're going to talk about it.
• 1:20:08
  So get ready, ladies and gentlemen, we're going to talk a
• 1:20:10
  little Yankees meds and and around the league and the show
• 1:20:14
  Atani garbage, but a lot more when we come back.
• 1:20:17
  Ah, fish take over this. Is a New York sports loudmouth
• 1:20:23
  sportsman ads. All right, guys, Aaron Fishman
• 1:20:29
  here with your sportsman. They've got a couple of stories
• 1:20:32
  for you before we get to the scores.
• 1:20:34
  Let's stick with baseball. The Mets ended their 12 game
• 1:20:37
  losing streak last week with the return of Juan Soto to the
• 1:20:40
  lineup, but immediately lost Francisco Lindor to the IL.
• 1:20:43
  In that same game, after taking two from the Twins, the Mets got
• 1:20:47
  swept at home by the Colorado Rockies, categorically one of
• 1:20:50
  the worst teams in Major League Baseball for the past few
• 1:20:52
  seasons. The Mets scored four runs total
• 1:20:55
  in the series and only one in Sunday's doubleheader.
• 1:20:57
  After Saturday's game was rained out in the nightcap Sunday, Mets
• 1:21:00
  announcers Gary Cohen and Ron Darling gave the fan base and
• 1:21:04
  its beleaguered manager Carlos Mendoza a bunch of truths here
• 1:21:07
  about the 2026 campaign so far. I know that managing is much,
• 1:21:12
  more, much more delicate operation than it used to be,
• 1:21:15
  but at some point you got to call people out, Cohen says In
• 1:21:18
  the 4th inning. Darling responded.
• 1:21:21
  In between games, Carlos Mendoza was inferring that he didn't
• 1:21:24
  appreciate the effort in the first game.
• 1:21:26
  You know, he needed more. It's a real tough thing to
• 1:21:29
  mention that because first thing people go, well, you're in
• 1:21:31
  charge of that. That's not completely true.
• 1:21:34
  It's on the players to do that. But when you say that, it
• 1:21:36
  indicts all, well, that's a shot across the bow.
• 1:21:39
  Cohen replied. Yeah, like, wake up, Darling
• 1:21:43
  added. And this is a meritocracy, Cohen
• 1:21:45
  explained. There are no scholarships at the
• 1:21:46
  big league level, particularly for a team that has one of the
• 1:21:49
  highest payrolls in baseball history.
• 1:21:52
  And I know that managing is much more delicate operation.
• 1:21:55
  Like we said to call people out guys, while the 2 great
• 1:22:00
  broadcasters made a ton of points, the biggest 1 might be
• 1:22:03
  similar to what we saw in Beantown.
• 1:22:05
  That's a lot easier to blame the manager than to take a stern
• 1:22:09
  look at the guy actually making the roster decisions in the
• 1:22:13
  executive suite. There is now a month of hard
• 1:22:16
  data for the MLB's new ABS challenging system implemented
• 1:22:20
  this season, and the results are fascinating.
• 1:22:22
  On average, teams are winning 54% of their challenges.
• 1:22:25
  Some teams do really well, some do real poorly.
• 1:22:28
  The Cubs, Mets and Royals lead the way with 63% of their
• 1:22:31
  challenges one, while the Nationals are the worst at 39%.
• 1:22:36
  The Yankees are at 50%. Even more interesting is the
• 1:22:39
  data that shows the percentage of challenges won by position as
• 1:22:42
  both hitters and pitchers are below 50% in their challenge
• 1:22:46
  success rate league wide, with hitters converting 46% and
• 1:22:50
  pitchers only 42 catchers. On the other hand, the guy with
• 1:22:54
  the best seat in the house for the pitch are winning 61% of
• 1:22:57
  challenges. This data should influence teams
• 1:23:00
  to get pitchers to stop challenging in favor of their
• 1:23:03
  catchers. On top of this data is the
• 1:23:05
  aspect of gamesmanship in when to use the challenges for
• 1:23:08
  biggest impact and at times to rattle pitchers or hitters in a
• 1:23:11
  key at bat. Another interesting statistic is
• 1:23:13
  that with more scrutiny on balls and strikes, umpires have also
• 1:23:17
  been more accurate now that they're being held accountable.

  We are now talking to a long time New York Post baseball
• 1:25:39
  writer. He has a book out called One O 1
• 1:25:42
  Lessons from the Dugout. Ken Davidoff.
• 1:25:46
  Ken, what's up, bud? How are you guys?
• 1:25:49
  Thanks for having me. Well, thank you for even coming
• 1:25:51
  on. I mean, you're a very high
• 1:25:53
  profile guy, You're a writer, you're doing some great things.
• 1:25:56
  We know you, everybody knows you.
• 1:25:58
  You're a baseball guy. So just happy for you to join
• 1:26:01
  us. And and before we get into the
• 1:26:04
  major leagues, I I want to know your opinion right now with
• 1:26:07
  Trevor Power, because I I've been all summer and and summer
• 1:26:12
  hasn't even started. OK, I'm sorry, Spring, I've been
• 1:26:15
  just getting a chance to get to know the guy.
• 1:26:17
  I've been to 2 Long Island Duck games.
• 1:26:21
  He's pitched in one of them. I got a chance to see his
• 1:26:23
  signing and, and he was at his media day.
• 1:26:27
  So he, he's been a very unique personality.
• 1:26:29
  He's come out and he's, he's said some interesting things.
• 1:26:33
  I I think he's here really to play in front of the American
• 1:26:36
  people. He's been all over the place for
• 1:26:38
  five years. He's been to Japan, he's been to
• 1:26:40
  Mexico, but he's just happy to be back in the United States
• 1:26:44
  pitching in front of the fans. What do you think of what he is
• 1:26:48
  doing right now? I know it's with the Ducks, but
• 1:26:51
  it's pretty impressive what he's doing right now.
• 1:26:55
  Yeah, I mean, honestly, I didn't know what he was doing until I
• 1:26:58
  was in your waiting room listening to you detail his
• 1:27:01
  accomplishments. So yeah, he's an excellent
• 1:27:04
  pitcher, no doubt. It's, it's crazy because I, I've
• 1:27:08
  seen so many crazy people in my past watching baseball, been a
• 1:27:12
  huge Don Mattingly fan watching the Yankees growing up and
• 1:27:15
  watching teams just fail to win all the way until the 90s.
• 1:27:19
  And then the Yankees dominated. This is the, the team of the,
• 1:27:22
  you know, team of the decade. And, and what they did was just
• 1:27:25
  absolutely amazing. When you look at those Yankee
• 1:27:27
  teams and everybody tries to compare what decade of the
• 1:27:32
  Yankees was most dominant? When you look at from the 90s,
• 1:27:35
  from 96 on, do you think that team and that that run was the
• 1:27:40
  most dominant the Yankees have ever had?
• 1:27:44
  I mean, technically, no, you'd have to go back to the 30s,
• 1:27:46
  right? The Yankees won, what, 5 World
• 1:27:49
  Series in the 30s? Only 1932 and 36 to 39 and then
• 1:27:53
  and then the 50s, what, 50 to 5356 and 58.
• 1:27:57
  So that was 6. So yeah, you have to go back and
• 1:28:00
  look at that. But I, I covered the 90s Yankees
• 1:28:02
  and they were spectacular. And and historic.
• 1:28:05
  A lot of people say the 98 Yankees were the greatest Yankee
• 1:28:07
  team. If you look at the record, you
• 1:28:09
  look at the dominance, I know they play Ken Caminiti and the
• 1:28:12
  Padres in the World Series and that wasn't much of anything.
• 1:28:15
  But that run with Paul O'Neill and Tino Martinez and Bernie
• 1:28:19
  Williams and Derek Jeter and all and that that great pitching
• 1:28:22
  staff with David Wells and and Roger Clemens and Andy Pettitte.
• 1:28:26
  When you look at those teams, I mean, it's hard to say.
• 1:28:29
  There are so many Hall of Famers on that roster and I I'm sorry,
• 1:28:33
  I forgot Mariano Rivera, pretty great player too.
• 1:28:35
  Yeah, I think there's a strong case we made for that.
• 1:28:37
  It probably either them or the 27 Yankees with Babe Ruth and
• 1:28:41
  Lou Guerra. Again, I had the privilege of
• 1:28:43
  covering that team. They were just an amazing team
• 1:28:46
  that was greater than the sum of their parts and just really had
• 1:28:49
  an incredible toughness and resilience to them.
• 1:28:52
  So I want to try this into your book.
• 1:28:54
  I know obviously David Wright was mentioned in the forward in
• 1:28:57
  that your new book you co-author for 101 lessons in the dugout.
• 1:29:03
  What baseball and softball could teach you about the game of
• 1:29:05
  life. By the way, you can get that
• 1:29:05
  available on Amazon now. So what was it like working with
• 1:29:09
  David Wright and a lot of his X Mets teammates?
• 1:29:14
  What do you mean with his X Mets teammates?
• 1:29:16
  I. Don't know if you had any
• 1:29:17
  connections with that in the book, being that David Wright
• 1:29:20
  was the forwarder. David Wright wrote the forward
• 1:29:25
  for the book. Yeah, and I love David Wright.
• 1:29:28
  He's a tremendous human being and he's a perfect person to
• 1:29:32
  write the foreword for this book.
• 1:29:34
  You know, he's a a dad who coaches his own kids and coaches
• 1:29:39
  other kids out in Southern California.
• 1:29:41
  So he really was on board for, you know what, what we were
• 1:29:46
  trying to do with this book even before he knew about the book.
• 1:29:50
  We are talking to long time New York Post baseball writer Ken
• 1:29:53
  Davidoff. He also is the co-author of the
• 1:29:55
  book One O 1 lessons from the Dugout.
• 1:29:58
  Your I, I'm sure your opinion of watching baseball and, and right
• 1:30:02
  now the New York Mets. What are the Mets doing?
• 1:30:04
  Like? Is there something going on
• 1:30:06
  behind the scenes that is not working on the field?
• 1:30:09
  Because there is no answer to why this team is so bad right
• 1:30:13
  now. And, and, and to me, Mendoza
• 1:30:15
  still has a job and David Sternstill has a job.
• 1:30:18
  I, I, I don't get it. I don't Why is this team playing
• 1:30:20
  such a good, bad baseball right now?
• 1:30:23
  Well, I, I, I don't, you know, I don't cover the sport full time
• 1:30:27
  anymore, but I'm certainly, I certainly pay attention.
• 1:30:30
  And yeah, look, I think it's been documented about the
• 1:30:33
  clubhouse issues. And I, I think, you know, Lundor
• 1:30:36
  and Soto are obviously the two dominant people in that
• 1:30:39
  clubhouse and they are such different human beings.
• 1:30:42
  And I think that's a real factor in terms of the, there's just
• 1:30:47
  obviously some chemistry issues there.
• 1:30:49
  But you know, beyond that you have the new guys coming in who
• 1:30:53
  have really faltered, right, Bichette and Semi in particular,
• 1:30:56
  and Peralta has been okay. Devin Williams has not been
• 1:30:59
  good. So that whether those are a
• 1:31:02
  byproduct of the chemistry, that seems like a stretch, but I do
• 1:31:06
  think the chemistry can be a factor.
• 1:31:08
  Kenny, you look at baseball and unlike you, you write, you write
• 1:31:11
  books and you've been around baseball for such a long time.
• 1:31:14
  Is there a particular player that really stands out to you
• 1:31:17
  with the personality and the talent over the years that you
• 1:31:21
  would like to write about in the future?
• 1:31:24
  That's an interesting question. Wow, that's you.
• 1:31:29
  You got me with that one. I mean, there, there are many,
• 1:31:31
  many players I really enjoyed covering and and getting to
• 1:31:35
  know. But in terms of writing about in
• 1:31:38
  the future, I mean, the one guy whose case fascinates me is is
• 1:31:43
  Rodger Clement, because I I voted for Rodger for the Hall of
• 1:31:46
  Fame all 10 years. I covered his trial actually in
• 1:31:50
  DC the you know, he was indicted for lying underoath to Congress.
• 1:31:57
  I just think he's a fascinating guy and and I also got to cover
• 1:32:01
  him for his Yankees years. So talk about some of the other
• 1:32:04
  Hall of Fame cases that have been a controversial recently.
• 1:32:06
  We finally saw Jeff Kent get in after a while and obviously
• 1:32:09
  these other steroid era guys over the years have been kept
• 1:32:12
  out. What are your overall thoughts
• 1:32:13
  to the process of doing that in a sport controversy that's let
• 1:32:16
  other people in that have done amphetamines?
• 1:32:18
  Obviously a Ty Cobb that was accused of the stuff he was
• 1:32:21
  accused of in the 30s and he got in as one of the first guys.
• 1:32:25
  So what are your thoughts of the overall process?
• 1:32:28
  Well, I think the overall process is sound.
• 1:32:30
  I, I disagree with some of the results.
• 1:32:32
  You know, I voted for Clemens and Bonds all 10 years and, and
• 1:32:36
  for I, I vote for a Rod, I vote for Mana Ramirez.
• 1:32:39
  I, I'd like to see all of them. I think the process is sound.
• 1:32:42
  I think it's good that the threshold is so high to get into
• 1:32:45
  the 75% threshold you mentioned in Jeff Kent.
• 1:32:47
  He was an interesting case, but I like that there's, you know,
• 1:32:50
  first you go through the writers ballot for 10 years and then if
• 1:32:53
  you don't get that, then you go on these other committee
• 1:32:55
  ballots. You kind of generically called
• 1:32:57
  the veterans committee. And I'm happy.
• 1:33:00
  It's like a check and balance process.
• 1:33:01
  I'm I'm happy for Jeff Kent that he got in.
• 1:33:04
  Now, I've watched baseball a long, long time and we we go
• 1:33:07
  insurance and the outs of who should stand out from all the
• 1:33:11
  rest. And and there are a lot of great
• 1:33:13
  Yankees. There are a lot of great Mets.
• 1:33:15
  And I remember the Mets in 1986. I was four years old when the
• 1:33:18
  Mets won a World Series. I was, I, I didn't even know how
• 1:33:21
  to walk really. I mean, I was a late bloomer
• 1:33:24
  girl. Yeah, I was a late bloomer.
• 1:33:26
  I skated. So Kenny, I I skated at five
• 1:33:30
  years old. So I was a fairly great skater
• 1:33:33
  before I could actually run. All right.
• 1:33:35
  So for anybody to know this, this is this is a true story.
• 1:33:38
  So The thing is, is when you look at though that Mets team in
• 1:33:42
  1986, the Mets have not won a World Series since then.
• 1:33:45
  I mean, it reminds me of The Jets.
• 1:33:46
  I wasn't even alive to see 1969 when Joe Namath predicted that
• 1:33:50
  they were going to win the game and and pretty much called it
• 1:33:53
  out. And they haven't seen a Super
• 1:33:56
  Bowl since then. When you look at that Mets team,
• 1:33:58
  Daryl Strawberry, who I met and I've had conversations with him,
• 1:34:01
  Doc Gooden, I've hosted events with Doc Gooden and I've met
• 1:34:05
  many different. Keith Hernandez, I met all these
• 1:34:08
  guys. Ron Darling, when you look at
• 1:34:11
  that team, do you see that team? If if that team was kept
• 1:34:14
  together, do you think that team wins multiple championships and
• 1:34:18
  how many do you think they win? Well.
• 1:34:22
  Gosh, that's an interesting question.
• 1:34:25
  I mean, they were largely kept together, unless you're talking
• 1:34:28
  about like Kevin Mitchell and Ray Knights and some other guys.
• 1:34:32
  But you know what's, to me, what's interesting is if there
• 1:34:35
  was the current playoff structure in place, you know,
• 1:34:37
  they would have gotten in probably all those years, you
• 1:34:41
  know, under 8087 for sure, 89 maybe and so and and 84 and 85
• 1:34:48
  for that matter. So, you know, in that format
• 1:34:52
  with the pitching they had, could they have won multiple
• 1:34:54
  championships? And I think the answer is yes,
• 1:34:57
  quite likely. Ken, you look at baseball and
• 1:35:00
  these new rules and I'm I'm telling you, these rules are
• 1:35:02
  really starting to get me my head shaking.
• 1:35:05
  I I the, the pitch clock, the bases are bigger.
• 1:35:09
  The first base is close to the second base.
• 1:35:11
  You see more stolen bases. You have Otani breaking records
• 1:35:14
  because of it, and everybody's sitting here and oh, Tony's the
• 1:35:17
  greatest player I've ever seen. He's a Unicorn.
• 1:35:19
  Oh my God, he's amazing. He's better than Babe Ruth,
• 1:35:22
  honestly. When and I you weren't alive for
• 1:35:24
  Babe Ruth, When you look at stats and what Babe Ruth did in
• 1:35:27
  a time where ballparks were bigger, I mean, bats were
• 1:35:32
  heavier, balls weren't juiced. Could you compare Shayo Otani to
• 1:35:36
  Babe Ruth? Let's be honest.
• 1:35:37
  Absolutely you can, but I I mean, what are you a man of
• 1:35:40
  nuances, Sir? No, I'm not.
• 1:35:46
  I appreciate your honesty, but you know, the bottom line is
• 1:35:50
  that Babe kind of lost. The more Babe hit, the more he
• 1:35:54
  lost interest in pitching. If we're going to say who was
• 1:35:56
  the better hitter, the Babe or or show, hey Otani, the answer
• 1:36:00
  is clearly the Babe. But if you're talking about who
• 1:36:03
  was a better all around player, who was who was more valuable, I
• 1:36:06
  think there's a strong case to be made for Otani because Otani
• 1:36:09
  is embracing this dual role in a way that the Babe never did.
• 1:36:15
  So what are your thoughts? I know the end of your career,
• 1:36:17
  you're covering a lot of the new rule changes post the lockout,
• 1:36:21
  post the Covic era, obviously the National League getting the
• 1:36:24
  DH after years of them resisting it for a while.
• 1:36:28
  What are your thoughts to a lot of these rules that Rob Manford
• 1:36:31
  has decided to create? Well, I think that the pitch
• 1:36:34
  clock has saved, saved at least met Rob Manfred's job and might
• 1:36:38
  have saved the whole darn sport. I, I love the pitch clock.
• 1:36:41
  And I say had that been in place earlier, I might have stuck
• 1:36:44
  around a little longer covering the games.
• 1:36:48
  You know, the, I like the shift personally.
• 1:36:51
  I, I, you know, they, they used it on Ted Williams back in the
• 1:36:54
  night. I wasn't alive for that either.
• 1:36:55
  You, you might be shot, though. And I wasn't born yet for The
• 1:36:58
  Jets Super Bowl win. So I, I sound old because I'm so
• 1:37:02
  cranky, but I'm not that old. So anyway, yeah, I, I like a lot
• 1:37:07
  of the channel. I love the the ABS.
• 1:37:08
  I just think it's added some drama and obviously some some
• 1:37:13
  accuracy. We are talking to long time New
• 1:37:15
  York Post baseball writer Ken Davidoff.
• 1:37:17
  He also is the co-author of 101 Lessons from the Dugout.
• 1:37:23
  You know, I, I sit here today, I'm a huge baseball fan and I, I
• 1:37:27
  wonder where baseball is going and, and a lot of people like
• 1:37:30
  it. For some reason, the younger
• 1:37:31
  fans are enjoying it. Me, I'm an old timer.
• 1:37:34
  I'm getting up there in age. I'm going to be 44 on Wednesday.
• 1:37:37
  So I'm getting up there in age. I've watched pretty good
• 1:37:40
  baseball, but I'm starting to watch baseball fall down.
• 1:37:45
  And I I wonder if Rob Mayfair, I I'll go go to this Bud Selig to
• 1:37:50
  me ruin baseball. He hired Rob Manfred, who I
• 1:37:55
  think, yeah, it might have kept his job, but Theo Epstein should
• 1:37:58
  have gotten that job. I think Theo Epstein is one of
• 1:38:00
  the biggest and the best when it comes to baseball sports,
• 1:38:03
  baseball minds I've ever seen. I love him.
• 1:38:05
  I think Theo Epstein has done so many great things in such a
• 1:38:08
  little time. But he he decided to to go own
• 1:38:11
  or be a part of that Boston Red Sox team.
• 1:38:13
  And we all know where they're going right now.
• 1:38:15
  But at the whole nother story, I I look at George Steinbrenner.
• 1:38:19
  This guy saved baseball. This guy changed baseball.
• 1:38:23
  This guy opened the path for baseball.
• 1:38:26
  Why the hell is this guy not in the Hall of Fame?
• 1:38:30
  Oh, that's an easy one, because he was suspended twice.
• 1:38:32
  So what, Bud Selig should have been suspended and thrown out of
• 1:38:36
  baseball for allowing what he did.
• 1:38:38
  He sat there and who's OK? Steroids help.
• 1:38:41
  Baseball strikes over. Let's do it.
• 1:38:43
  No, he didn't care what Mark Mcquire was doing.
• 1:38:46
  He didn't care what Sammy Sosa was doing.
• 1:38:48
  He didn't care what Barry Bonds was doing.
• 1:38:50
  He didn't care what Kim, Kim and Kim and Andy was doing.
• 1:38:52
  Oh, I'm sorry. Andy Pettit, Roger Clemens.
• 1:38:55
  He didn't care. Because guess what?
• 1:38:57
  They saved baseball. They put baseball back on top or
• 1:39:00
  at least brought him back on top.
• 1:39:03
  They're not better than football.
• 1:39:04
  As we all know, the NFL has taken over.
• 1:39:06
  But come on, Ken. Ken, what?
• 1:39:08
  What are we doing here? Why isn't George Steinbrenner in
• 1:39:11
  the Hall of Fame? I don't that that's a bunch of
• 1:39:13
  crap for me. I you can't tell me right now.
• 1:39:15
  Well, he was suspended 2 times and he did this depended.
• 1:39:18
  He was suspended for two years here.
• 1:39:20
  He was suspended. This guy took baseball, he
• 1:39:22
  changed baseball. You go to Jerry Jones.
• 1:39:24
  You see what Jerry Jones is doing right now for the Cowboy,
• 1:39:26
  what he did for the Cowboys, Everybody, every Cowboy fan says
• 1:39:29
  retire, tire, retire, retire. But this guy changed football,
• 1:39:32
  changed the sponsorship, opened up paths where money is being
• 1:39:36
  made for all these different teams and all these different
• 1:39:39
  sponsors. That's what George Steinbrenner
• 1:39:41
  did. Who do?
• 1:39:42
  Where do you think Jerry Jones got that information from?
• 1:39:44
  The Yes Network was the first television network for sports
• 1:39:48
  for for team. Then then who changed it?
• 1:39:52
  Jerry Jones did it. How does this guy not have a
• 1:39:55
  plaque in the Hall of Fame as the greatest owner and
• 1:39:59
  professional baseball? I answered your question and you
• 1:40:05
  spend the next 5 minutes screaming at me for answering
• 1:40:08
  your question. Kenny, I'm trying to help you
• 1:40:10
  here. I want you to believe in me.
• 1:40:11
  Hey, what is your name? My name is Errol Marx.
• 1:40:14
  Yes, Errol. I I agree with you good Lord
• 1:40:18
  man. I mean you need to take a
• 1:40:20
  quaalude or something. I wanna give me one.
• 1:40:22
  I could use one. I agree with you.
• 1:40:25
  I was. I was offering my journalistic
• 1:40:27
  opinion of why Because I've actually done the work, Errol.
• 1:40:31
  I've interviewed people about why he didn't get in.
• 1:40:34
  I answered your question. You're freaking attacking me for
• 1:40:37
  giving you an answer where if you took the time to listen to
• 1:40:40
  me, you'd find out that I agree wholeheartedly with you.
• 1:40:44
  Jesus Christ. I'm having fun, Kenny.
• 1:40:48
  I'm having fun. I'm trying to have fun here.
• 1:40:51
  We're we're opening up the floodgates here.
• 1:40:53
  I'm a Yankee fan. I'm a die hard Yankee fan.
• 1:40:56
  All right. My question here, do you think
• 1:40:59
  that what did they call those balls for Aaron Judge?
• 1:41:02
  The Goldilocks. Balls.
• 1:41:04
  Do you believe in any of this crap that the baseball tried to
• 1:41:08
  help Aaron Judge break Roger Maris's record because of Barry
• 1:41:11
  Bonds and his cheating and Mark McGuire and his cheating?
• 1:41:15
  Come on, what do you think? I'm not familiar with that
• 1:41:18
  theory and I I'm loath to believe it you.
• 1:41:21
  See, I got one. I got 1.
• 1:41:24
  All right. My last question.
• 1:41:25
  You got me on George too, but you didn't want to have a
• 1:41:28
  conversation. Oh, well, you know, I don't want
• 1:41:30
  to. I don't want to scare you away.
• 1:41:31
  It seems like I almost got you angry.
• 1:41:33
  He was about to jump out of your car.
• 1:41:34
  He was going to kill me or something.
• 1:41:36
  Maybe you have a bat in the back.
• 1:41:38
  You just start breaking your camera or.
• 1:41:39
  Something OK? I'm just, I don't want to get
• 1:41:42
  killed here. All right.
• 1:41:43
  My last question, I know you got to go soon.
• 1:41:45
  Yes, lockout possibly pending. With all the things the Dodgers
• 1:41:48
  have done in the offseason and obviously this whole salary cap
• 1:41:50
  debate, where do you stand on that whole things in your time
• 1:41:53
  covering baseball? Yeah, I think the sport is in
• 1:41:57
  real peril because of this issue and it's because of the Dodgers
• 1:42:00
  success. You know, you see what's
• 1:42:01
  happening, you see the the Mets obviously complete disaster with
• 1:42:04
  the second highest payroll. And then you look at the San
• 1:42:08
  Diego Padres. To me, they're they should be
• 1:42:10
  the union's exhibit A. Like, look what happens when you
• 1:42:14
  spend money, you make money, you know, you, you, you.
• 1:42:17
  They, the Padres elevated themselves and they sold at a
• 1:42:20
  huge price. And they're incredibly exciting
• 1:42:23
  and competitive team. So I'm curious to see whether
• 1:42:26
  that helps bring about peace. But yeah, it's hard not to be
• 1:42:30
  pessimistic because of the Hawk owner's desire for a salary cap
• 1:42:35
  and the Hawk player's opposition to a salary cap.
• 1:42:38
  Kenny, what's retired, retired life like?
• 1:42:40
  I mean, you left, you're no longer, you know, working with
• 1:42:43
  baseball. What are you doing?
• 1:42:44
  I know you're writing books, but what are you doing on, you know,
• 1:42:47
  obviously just chilling out and hanging out and and obviously
• 1:42:50
  being a father, being a grandfather.
• 1:42:52
  What are you? What are you doing?
• 1:42:54
  I'm not a grandfather yet, but. I'm trying to help you.
• 1:42:56
  I'm trying to figure it out here.
• 1:42:58
  I'm trying. I'm trying.
• 1:42:59
  You correct me up, Beryl. You're an interesting dude.
• 1:43:02
  Thank you. So yeah, I'm quite busy right
• 1:43:06
  now promoting the book. I'm also a adjunct professor at
• 1:43:10
  Endicott College in Beverly, MA is where I'm driving to right
• 1:43:13
  now, which is why I don't live in my car.
• 1:43:15
  I, I just, I'm, I'm driving up to Massachusetts and I, I pull
• 1:43:19
  it over to talk to you guys. Well, we really appreciate you.
• 1:43:21
  I really appreciate the time. Go check out his book.
• 1:43:25
  You can find it in every single bookstore.
• 1:43:27
  Amazon 101 Lessons from the Dugout.
• 1:43:31
  Kenny gave it off and, and I'll say this and, and if you're a
• 1:43:35
  David Wright fan and you follow David Wright and you're a big
• 1:43:38
  Mets fan, get the book. I'm telling you, it's definitely
• 1:43:41
  a book to read. Kenny, we really appreciate the
• 1:43:44
  time. I I hope you enjoyed the
• 1:43:46
  interview. Yeah, I'll tell you all, for a
• 1:43:48
  man of who is not a, not a man of nuance, I appreciate the
• 1:43:51
  self-awareness. And yeah, you, you obviously
• 1:43:54
  annoyed me a little bit with that George exchange.
• 1:43:56
  But you I I give you credit for your energy and your
• 1:43:58
  entertainment value. Well, thank you.
• 1:44:00
  I appreciate your day, Kenny and I'll we'll talk to you soon.
• 1:44:03
  Let's get you on again when you're actually, you know, in
• 1:44:06
  front of like, you know, wall or something, you know.
• 1:44:09
  Sounds good. All right, Ken Davidoff,
• 1:44:11
  fantastic. Great baseball guy.
• 1:44:14
  One of the better riders. I got him.
• 1:44:16
  Laughing. I got him.
• 1:44:18
  Hey boy, I leave you for 5 minutes and you almost.
• 1:44:22
  What? The kid David off almost gave
• 1:44:24
  you boy he. You weren't, you weren't
• 1:44:28
  entertained. You weren't entertained for that
• 1:44:30
  interview. Come on, Am I going to?
• 1:44:33
  I'm not going to sit here and be boring, OK?
• 1:44:35
  I am not one of those guys that's boring.
• 1:44:37
  Yeah, but you attacked the man, we say.
• 1:44:39
  I attack everybody. I.
• 1:44:42
  He thought he was talking to me. He thought he thought he was
• 1:44:44
  coming after me about my giant states.
• 1:44:47
  I I listen when I go at it, I go out.
• 1:44:49
  It's strong. I'm not going to sit here and be
• 1:44:50
  boring. That ain't got nothing to do
• 1:44:53
  with being bored, I'm just saying.
• 1:44:54
  That had everything to do about being.
• 1:44:56
  Bored attack. He didn't feel entertained
• 1:44:58
  really to do something. Are you not entertained?
• 1:45:02
  Yeah, listen. You might do something to you.
• 1:45:04
  I thought I would have to pull up on you.
• 1:45:05
  Yeah. Well, somebody, somebody's got
• 1:45:07
  to pull up on me. I mean, there's a lot more that
• 1:45:10
  where that comes from, ladies and gentlemen.
• 1:45:12
  I just, I like to have fun, man. I'm not going to sit here and be
• 1:45:14
  boring if anybody sits here and listens to the show and I
• 1:45:18
  there's a ton of people that listens to the replay on Spotify
• 1:45:21
  and out, but we have people slowly but surely getting to
• 1:45:23
  know us on YouTube. I am not a person that I am a
• 1:45:28
  controversial person, but I, I am a person that's going to come
• 1:45:31
  at come at it strong, put personality to it.
• 1:45:34
  And and I'm going to make sure that people are going to
• 1:45:36
  remember the interview. I don't want anybody to think
• 1:45:39
  that I'm one of those boring guys that are going to ask the
• 1:45:41
  same questions over and over and over again.
• 1:45:44
  And. I'm not.
• 1:45:45
  Going to do. It I'm not going to do it.
• 1:45:47
  So I hope everybody enjoyed the interview.
• 1:45:49
  I'm sure there's a lot of people that listen to that interview
• 1:45:52
  and probably going to say, man, Ken wanted to get out of the car
• 1:45:54
  and. Beat the hell out.
• 1:45:55
  Of you. You.
• 1:45:56
  So you. Won him over, though.
• 1:45:58
  You won him over. He didn't expect you to come at
• 1:46:00
  him like that. He really didn't.
• 1:46:02
  Well, a lot of. People, he had to do his little
• 1:46:04
  peace treaty. Walkers, we don't know.
• 1:46:06
  He had to. He had to cobble down.
• 1:46:07
  You'll be quiet. Kid, he was like, I'm agreeing
• 1:46:11
  with you, what are you talking about?
• 1:46:14
  Well, I'm glad you were laughing.
• 1:46:15
  And everybody else that's going to listen to this interview and
• 1:46:17
  laugh at him, listen. It's what makes this show
• 1:46:21
  different from everybody else's. I'm not going to sit here and
• 1:46:24
  I'm not going to lie to you guys, but I, I, I, that's not
• 1:46:28
  anybody that knows me and understands my personality.
• 1:46:31
  I am what I am on the show. I am in person.
• 1:46:34
  I'm a faithful straight up guy. I'm, I'm down to earth.
• 1:46:38
  Maybe some people think I'm a little overboard, but I am who I
• 1:46:41
  am. I don't, I don't try to pretend
• 1:46:43
  that I'm somebody that I'm not. So I want everybody to
• 1:46:46
  understand that when I go out there and I do this show and I
• 1:46:49
  put a lot of work into this. Every one of us put a lot of
• 1:46:51
  work into the product that we have, and we want to entertain
• 1:46:55
  people. We don't want anybody to be
• 1:46:56
  bored and sit there. Huh.
• 1:46:58
  They're talking about the same garbage, everybody, and we're
• 1:47:02
  interviewing the same people. And oh, that was a horrible
• 1:47:05
  interview because that was not educational.
• 1:47:08
  That was absolutely ridiculous and redundant.
• 1:47:10
  No, that's not the way I interview people.
• 1:47:12
  Sorry. And so if you don't like it,
• 1:47:14
  kiss my ass. All right, Speedy 6 pack of the
• 1:47:17
  week. Let's have a sixer.
• 1:47:20
  Hey, who wants to play Drink the Beer?
• 1:47:22
  It's time for the Speedy 6 pack of the week.
• 1:47:28
  Oh, that was a nice part. I farted, do you want to jerk me
• 1:47:33
  off? All right, Speedy, let's go all.
• 1:47:35
  Right, so we're in New York show where we'll start with the only
• 1:47:38
  New York team remaining in the playoffs, the Buffalo Sabres,
• 1:47:40
  and they're looking good. They're justifying their case as
• 1:47:43
  the new number one seed. The first time in the playoffs
• 1:47:45
  forever, including Game 4, four goals in the first period within
• 1:47:49
  the 1st 10 minutes of that game. They dominate the Bruins to take
• 1:47:52
  a three to one series lead in that one.
• 1:47:54
  They pull goalies after the game two there was a half court shot
• 1:47:59
  that basically went in through. Half court?
• 1:48:00
  What is this basketball? Half ice, I should say.
• 1:48:02
  Yeah, I'm trying to help. Halfway across the ice that went
• 1:48:05
  through Lekinen's legs and he was pulled in that game.
• 1:48:08
  Alex Lyons taking over since then has been very good and
• 1:48:10
  Buffalo's rallied around him. Oh, by the way, anybody that
• 1:48:13
  knows me on this show, I'm a big Tage Thompson fan.
• 1:48:17
  He has four points in this series.
• 1:48:19
  This team is just, to me, energetic, fun to watch.
• 1:48:22
  They're fighting. They're kicking the crap out of
• 1:48:24
  the Boston Bruins and I'm loving it.
• 1:48:26
  You have your goaltender come right out of get pulled out of
• 1:48:29
  the game and yells at his team when he walks off the ice.
• 1:48:32
  When you see that, you know stuff is happening.
• 1:48:36
  If you're a New York fan, I don't care if the Islanders are
• 1:48:39
  not there. I can.
• 1:48:40
  I don't care if you're the you're a Ranger fan.
• 1:48:42
  You love this. This is a young, energetic team
• 1:48:45
  that's going to move on to the playoffs and maybe go to the
• 1:48:48
  Stanley Cup Finals. I'm loving it.
• 1:48:49
  Yeah, it's a young team that's doing it right away to a
• 1:48:52
  defenseman getting involved in the rush to you.
• 1:48:54
  Owen Powers play very well. Bowen Byram had a goal in that
• 1:48:56
  last game as well. And sometimes you get with those
• 1:48:58
  younger teams a little adversity to start right away, but they're
• 1:49:01
  definitely showing it and doing it in Boston too, which is a
• 1:49:04
  tough place to play. So we have kudos to the Buffalo
• 1:49:07
  Sabres. Let's go to the other Atlantic
• 1:49:09
  Division match. This one's been thrilling.
• 1:49:10
  By the way, I want to say David Posternick after this series
• 1:49:13
  probably should ask to be traded because this this Bruin team is
• 1:49:17
  done all right. Interesting.
• 1:49:19
  We'll see if that it develops in the offseason.
• 1:49:21
  This has been a very thrilling series.
• 1:49:22
  On the other side, what I was thinking cut was essentially my
• 1:49:24
  Easter conference finals. Tampa and Montreal.
• 1:49:27
  So they're tied two to two now. All three games have been one
• 1:49:29
  goal game so far. 3 have gone to overtime.
• 1:49:32
  Montreal winning game one and Tampa winning game two.
• 1:49:34
  Kind of going in a pattern after that.
• 1:49:36
  Martin St. Louis.
• 1:49:38
  I love him, absolutely love him. I think to me that's what you
• 1:49:42
  want to see your coach. You want to see him energetic
• 1:49:44
  behind and getting his team pumped up, yelling at the
• 1:49:47
  referees, yelling at the other players.
• 1:49:50
  Brandon Hagel's been unbelievable.
• 1:49:52
  He has been as good as anybody in the playoffs.
• 1:49:55
  Jacob Genzel, Genzel, 7 points. Nick Suzuki, one of the best
• 1:50:00
  young players. He was drafted in the later of
• 1:50:03
  the first round a couple of years ago and everybody was
• 1:50:05
  saying how talented this kid is. They've got tremendous amount of
• 1:50:08
  talent. And Noah Dobson, I root for
• 1:50:10
  Noah. I know he's no longer with the
• 1:50:11
  Islanders, but he is now with the Canadians.
• 1:50:13
  I all I want to see is I want to see this young team really turn
• 1:50:17
  this turn this series into a, a series that they can win and,
• 1:50:21
  and move on to the players. I want to see Montreal go all
• 1:50:23
  the way to the Eastern Conference finals.
• 1:50:25
  I, I, I love what I'm seeing with the, the Sabres and I love
• 1:50:29
  what I see with the Canadians. I want to see these two young
• 1:50:32
  teams make it all the way to the finals.
• 1:50:34
  It's kind of. Weird to think that like some of
• 1:50:36
  these young players, not probably only about half the
• 1:50:38
  roster made it's the Stanley Cup with Montreal in that in that
• 1:50:41
  short season, that 56 game season and they are they have
• 1:50:44
  played Tampa in the finals of loss.
• 1:50:46
  But it's interesting to see like what level of experience they
• 1:50:48
  have. They played Washington very
• 1:50:49
  close last year when Washington was the best team in the East,
• 1:50:51
  and it gave an interesting thought that they could
• 1:50:53
  definitely be a sleeper team in this division.
• 1:50:55
  And then Tampa, obviously, you know, the experience they have,
• 1:50:57
  the only team that usually beats them is Florida.
• 1:50:59
  So now it's an interest to see the potential that they could.
• 1:51:01
  Have It's just fun. You watch a young team and
• 1:51:04
  they're developing right in front of your eyes.
• 1:51:05
  Martin St. Louis took over this team three
• 1:51:07
  years ago and slowly but surely has gotten this team to play at
• 1:51:10
  a high level. He's got a bunch of young
• 1:51:12
  players, he's got a couple of veterans and they're starting to
• 1:51:15
  believe in his way of coaching and the way he wants to run this
• 1:51:18
  team and and the way he's and by the way, this team has played in
• 1:51:22
  every single factor, defense, offense, power play, penalty
• 1:51:25
  killing. I love what I see and IA lot of
• 1:51:28
  people don't think they could beat the Lightning.
• 1:51:30
  I'm going to tell you this right now.
• 1:51:31
  Montreal wins this series in seven games.
• 1:51:33
  I had I had lightning in seven originally, but I like I said,
• 1:51:35
  this was essentially my Eastern Conference finals.
• 1:51:37
  These two, these are the two teams I think that had the best
• 1:51:38
  shot at going to the cup because Montreal doesn't really good
• 1:51:40
  balance in their game as well. Like you said, defense, the
• 1:51:43
  combination of like a lot of young players, it's already been
• 1:51:45
  paid. So we talked about it on Dial It
• 1:51:47
  Up last year. They're kind of the Braves model
• 1:51:48
  of the NHL. All right, we'll finish it off
• 1:51:50
  in the Eastern Conference. Out of the two more lopsided
• 1:51:52
  series, the Flyers up 3 to one on the Penguins right now,
• 1:51:55
  getting some really good goaltending in that in that
• 1:51:57
  series. And then Carolina sweeping the
• 1:51:59
  auto Senators. And now this rumor swirling,
• 1:52:02
  maybe Brady Katak could be on his way out.
• 1:52:04
  Yeah. First of all, I'm rooting for
• 1:52:07
  the Penguins. I want to see Sidney Crosby.
• 1:52:09
  This might be his last run, at least with the Pittsburgh
• 1:52:11
  Penguins. If he decides to come back next
• 1:52:13
  year, which I believe he still has it in him to come back, he
• 1:52:17
  probably probably won't be a Pittsburgh Penguin.
• 1:52:19
  I think he'll go somewhere else where he can win, maybe goes
• 1:52:21
  play plays with Connor McDavid over there in Edmonton or go
• 1:52:25
  somewhere else. I it's horrible to see how when
• 1:52:28
  you get old and and as an athlete, how far you fall off.
• 1:52:32
  But Crosby still playing at a high level, Malkin, he's
• 1:52:34
  definitely not going to be back next year.
• 1:52:36
  And Carlson, who's won it to me is going to be all three guys
• 1:52:41
  could be Hall of farmers in the future.
• 1:52:42
  They're just not doing enough in the series.
• 1:52:44
  And and this is a young Flyers team.
• 1:52:47
  Zeigris is is been unbelievable. Young kid Porter Matone, he's
• 1:52:52
  been good. So these guys have been playing
• 1:52:54
  at such a high level. I hope Pittsburgh takes this to
• 1:52:58
  six games. I'm sorry, five games, right?
• 1:53:00
  Five games. 5:00 tonight. That's right on right now.
• 1:53:02
  So I'm sorry, yeah, take it to six games and and we'll see how
• 1:53:05
  it works. All right.
• 1:53:06
  So moving on into the Western Conference, we'll start with.
• 1:53:09
  By the way, I forgot, I didn't give that.
• 1:53:11
  By the way, I don't know what's going on with the Senators and
• 1:53:14
  the Senators had such a good late run all the way to the
• 1:53:18
  playoffs. They squeezed into the playoffs
• 1:53:20
  and I I like this team and Taylor Hall.
• 1:53:23
  I I mean, where did this guy come from?
• 1:53:25
  This guy jumped over the team from team to team, wins an MVP
• 1:53:29
  with the devils. Go somewhere else, go somewhere
• 1:53:31
  else, go somewhere else and all of a sudden he just comes out of
• 1:53:33
  nowhere and stank oven. I mean stank oven.
• 1:53:36
  What a name Stank oven. I I mean, he stinks.
• 1:53:41
  No, I'm just kidding. He has been playing, Yeah.
• 1:53:42
  It's such a high level. I mean, and Rob Brindamore, I I
• 1:53:45
  love, I love Rob Brindamore. He's got one of the ugliest
• 1:53:48
  noses I've ever seen. It's ugly, guys.
• 1:53:51
  You mean it. You meet him.
• 1:53:52
  I've. I've met him at the draft.
• 1:53:53
  It's an ugly nose. But I've always liked him when
• 1:53:56
  he played for Philly, when he when he traveled, he had the
• 1:53:59
  opportunity to play in the NHL as long as he did.
• 1:54:01
  I love him. The Senators.
• 1:54:02
  I, I wouldn't be so surprised if Kashuk gets traded in the
• 1:54:06
  offseason as the rumors swirl. Remember I said this.
• 1:54:10
  Florida Panthers. This brother very interesting
• 1:54:13
  that could be the aggressive movement that you get Carolina's
• 1:54:16
  their defense was showcase on full display.
• 1:54:18
  Florida Panthers and nobody said that.
• 1:54:20
  Ottawa, we knew like a lot of these teams could steam out.
• 1:54:22
  Usually they they get hot just to get in.
• 1:54:24
  Obviously other teams like Columbus, like the Islanders had
• 1:54:27
  to go cold for them to sneak in, but again, it just wasn't
• 1:54:29
  enough. But they're outside of the
• 1:54:31
  Shock, not a team that has a lot of great sides against the
• 1:54:33
  Carolina team that really has good physicality, good defense
• 1:54:35
  when they need to. And we'll actually get to the 6
• 1:54:39
  pack degrees of Logan Stankoven in the Western Conference.
• 1:54:42
  Stankoven. In just a bit because.
• 1:54:44
  He. Stinks he was actually the main
• 1:54:45
  piece in the Miko Rotman trade, so we'll get to that in a bit.
• 1:54:48
  But first that we'll go to the Pacific Division for this next
• 1:54:51
  one. So Anaheim winning game four
• 1:54:53
  thriller. They came back down 3 to 2.
• 1:54:55
  Ryan, Ryan Paling, who actually Anaheim got in the zebras trade
• 1:54:59
  from Philly, scores the game-winning goal just squeaking
• 1:55:02
  by the under under the pad of former Penguin Tristan Jari just
• 1:55:06
  sneaking in. Anaheim wins that one.
• 1:55:07
  Unbelievable one. And then the Utah Mammoth are
• 1:55:10
  also up two to one against. Unbelievable too.
• 1:55:13
  So they won four. To two in game three and the
• 1:55:15
  game they got outshot 32 to 12. The Mammoth, I've been so
• 1:55:19
  impressed with this young team. Keller This is a team that's so
• 1:55:22
  explosive, so fun to watch and I, I just want to see them keep
• 1:55:26
  playing as hard as they've been playing.
• 1:55:28
  They're getting good goaltending in the series.
• 1:55:29
  They're playing good defense and they're really shutting down a,
• 1:55:33
  a Vegas night team that spent a lot of money.
• 1:55:35
  They added some great players in the offseason.
• 1:55:38
  I, I, I, I'm very impressed with the Utah Mammoth is doing
• 1:55:42
  Anaheim. I have Anaheim beating the
• 1:55:44
  Edmonton Oilers. I they're my surprise team
• 1:55:46
  throughout the playoffs. They're they've got a bunch of
• 1:55:49
  veterans, they've got a bunch of young talent.
• 1:55:51
  They're fun to watch. I know you Ranger fans, you have
• 1:55:54
  Krupa there, you have Troopa there, you have Krider there.
• 1:55:57
  I know you guys aren't very excited to see what they're
• 1:56:00
  doing right now in the playoffs, being leaders, something that
• 1:56:04
  they couldn't do over there in New York.
• 1:56:06
  Yeah, it's a, it's a disconnect for Ranger fans over there,
• 1:56:09
  especially with Truba, because I think most of the Ranger fans.
• 1:56:11
  Say Lovey, that's what I would. Say and then the flyer fans,
• 1:56:14
  like I said with with Paley go over there and also Cutter
• 1:56:17
  Goatier who forces way out, not affiliate everyone don't care
• 1:56:19
  costly lovey for a while Gautier had I think the tying goal in
• 1:56:22
  that game. Jackson Lacombe, also in a very
• 1:56:24
  good. Young, Where's webbing Yama when
• 1:56:26
  you need him? Say Lovey.
• 1:56:28
  We'll see if he could skate on a hockey rink, that would be
• 1:56:30
  another. Question could you imagine him?
• 1:56:32
  I mean, Chara was a pretty big man.
• 1:56:34
  He was the tallest player in NHL history, I mean, and I think
• 1:56:37
  he's. Like, and another stupid move
• 1:56:38
  for the New York island. Nobody said Mike.
• 1:56:40
  Miller, thank you. Yeah, you know, he scouted me
• 1:56:43
  when I was a kid. Mike Millbury.
• 1:56:45
  Fine, maybe that's fine. The Plight Squirrel fights it
• 1:56:48
  out every once in a while. Yeah, well, he didn't find
• 1:56:50
  enough because I didn't. I didn't play professional
• 1:56:52
  hockey. The nut was.
• 1:56:53
  Lost not your fault compared to the other.
• 1:56:55
  Right. The nut didn't drop to the right
• 1:56:57
  side, it dropped to the left. That wasn't your fault compared
• 1:57:00
  to the other Doug moves, like drafting your least favorite
• 1:57:02
  hockey player ever, Ricky Pietro.
• 1:57:04
  That's a whole another story. Let's not get into it.
• 1:57:06
  You don't want to piss me off. I pissed off David.
• 1:57:08
  Mr. Ken gave it off. You don't want to piss me off?
• 1:57:11
  No. All right, let's go to the the
• 1:57:13
  Minnesota and Dallas series, a very back and forth series as
• 1:57:16
  well. Lots of overtime games in that
• 1:57:17
  one, both in Minnesota, Dallas winning game three and double
• 1:57:20
  overtime on a Wyatt Johnston game-winning goal in that one.
• 1:57:24
  And then Minnesota winning game 4 on a hero in the A Hero in the
• 1:57:29
  Olympics with Matt Boldy. He was for game one in against
• 1:57:32
  Canada. He scores the winner here in
• 1:57:34
  this game. This is the best series we we
• 1:57:37
  were going into and we said this series is going to be the most
• 1:57:39
  interesting because both teams can win the Stanley Cup.
• 1:57:42
  And what Minnesota did at the trade deadline, they had a Quinn
• 1:57:45
  use and and what they're what they're doing right now.
• 1:57:48
  I could I could see them being Dallas and you said Boldy Baldy
• 1:57:52
  actually kicked the puck in. It was taken taken away.
• 1:57:55
  The goal was taken away and then he scored the game winner again
• 1:57:58
  on a tip in it's it's unbelievable.
• 1:58:01
  I love Baldy. I love I love the kid.
• 1:58:03
  I love what he's done. You you got a chance to see him
• 1:58:06
  at A at a world level at the Olympics for Team USA scoring
• 1:58:10
  the first goal against Team Canada.
• 1:58:12
  It's fun. And I'm I'm going to tell you
• 1:58:14
  this right now. If Quinton use and Minnesota get
• 1:58:17
  eliminated in the first round, I could see Quinton use eventually
• 1:58:21
  because how many years does he have left on his contract?
• 1:58:23
  I think it's one year, two years.
• 1:58:24
  I thought he just got re extended so I think it's three
• 1:58:27
  but. Maybe, maybe he has to get
• 1:58:29
  traded to New Jersey. What do you think?
• 1:58:31
  Maybe I mean, they Devils just hired AGM from the Florida
• 1:58:34
  Panthers organization. We know they like to make a lot
• 1:58:36
  of these things, I mean. I know he wants to play with his
• 1:58:38
  brothers. It makes a lot of sense.
• 1:58:40
  It's not the Rangers for all the Ranger fans that think they're.
• 1:58:42
  Going to Rangers. Everybody.
• 1:58:44
  You know what's so funny? I love New York fans because
• 1:58:48
  when when the they have money off, we could get them.
• 1:58:51
  We could get them. We could get them.
• 1:58:52
  I there's a guy on our show that thinks that the Giants are
• 1:58:55
  getting everybody, everybody, you name it, they're getting
• 1:58:59
  them. We could get them.
• 1:59:00
  We could get them. Oh, yeah, we got them.
• 1:59:03
  Oh, yeah. 20 years later. Yeah.
• 1:59:05
  Good. We got them.
• 1:59:06
  All right, let's go. All right, continue on to the
• 1:59:08
  six pack degrees of Stankova. So Stankova was in the trade for
• 1:59:12
  Miko Rotten and who is now on Dallas but has not played as
• 1:59:15
  well in this series. We saw him do last year, very
• 1:59:17
  interesting. And then.
• 1:59:18
  Had a great season too. He did, he did and then the
• 1:59:20
  final part of that 66 pack degrees of separation is Martin
• 1:59:23
  Neches on his Colorado Avalanche, which I know is your
• 1:59:26
  cup pick. I had Minnesota winning the West
• 1:59:29
  and I definitely could see Colorado, but President's
• 1:59:31
  Trophy, we'll see. But they sweep their first
• 1:59:33
  round. The four O against the Kings
• 1:59:35
  didn't look great offensively in the beginning of the.
• 1:59:37
  Season Somebody's retiring. Was squeaking by and Andre
• 1:59:40
  Kopitar, yes, retiring as well. That's the other big factor that
• 1:59:43
  I think a future Hall of Famer for.
• 1:59:44
  Sure, absolutely, Hall of Famer. At Colorado.
• 1:59:49
  Final note on this, they are the only Western Conference one seed
• 1:59:51
  to sweep in the last 15 years besides themselves did in 2022
• 1:59:55
  when they won the Cup. Congratulations to Andre
• 1:59:58
  Copitar, who's one of the best two way players the NHL has seen
• 2:00:01
  in the last 20 years. It's it's a great.
• 2:00:04
  This is a great player. This is one of the best, more
• 2:00:06
  underrated players because he played for the LA Kings and if
• 2:00:09
  you're a New York fan, you didn't get a chance to see him a
• 2:00:11
  lot if you're not an LA Kings fan.
• 2:00:13
  This guy played his whole career over there with the LA Kings.
• 2:00:17
  It's impressive what he has done.
• 2:00:19
  He won 2 Stanley cops. Very well deserved Hall of
• 2:00:22
  Famer. Absolute first ballot Hall of
• 2:00:24
  Famer should be. They had a great great career.
• 2:00:26
  Two way player. Yeah, I was going to say kind of
• 2:00:29
  got under shadow with Patrice Bergeron to like how good of a
• 2:00:31
  two way player he was, but he was kind of the Western
• 2:00:33
  Conference version of that. Absolutely.
• 2:00:34
  As far as the Colorado, Colorado Avalanche, this team is the best
• 2:00:39
  team overall in the whole league.
• 2:00:42
  They've got the best defense, man, you can argue the best
• 2:00:44
  offensive player in McKinnon and Makar.
• 2:00:47
  I, I mean, this team is fully loaded and ready to knock you
• 2:00:51
  out. Their goaltending is
• 2:00:52
  interesting. I, I, I want to see this
• 2:00:54
  goaltending hold up. That's always been their
• 2:00:56
  problem, but they're they we've seen them win a Stanley Cup with
• 2:00:59
  OK goaltending. This team is loaded.
• 2:01:02
  Their defense. They've got guys that are all
• 2:01:04
  all world defenseman. I know because one of them used
• 2:01:07
  to be an Islander. So in, in in towns teams,
• 2:01:10
  whatever his name is, I, I, I know, I know what this team
• 2:01:13
  could do at a such a high level. And I expect them to win it all
• 2:01:16
  this year. I don't think there's anybody
• 2:01:18
  that can go match for match with them with the talent that they
• 2:01:20
  have from for the first line to the fourth line to any line.
• 2:01:24
  Good luck. What, what What will be
• 2:01:25
  interesting now I'm. Going to smack it and I'm going
• 2:01:28
  to win some money. What will be interesting now is.
• 2:01:30
  Smack it and I'm going to win some money.
• 2:01:33
  You have that? You're turning?
• 2:01:34
  Yeah, that queue. Smack it again and I'm going to
• 2:01:38
  win some money. You're muted.
• 2:01:43
  Good luck, Good luck. What you going to do when arrow
• 2:01:48
  marks goes wild on? You go get kid David.
• 2:01:53
  Oh. Last thing before we wrap up, I
• 2:01:56
  just want to mention is the rest versus rust factor that the
• 2:01:59
  debate. We've always said it's more of a
• 2:02:01
  bigger thing for basketball, the rest versus the rust being a
• 2:02:03
  factor more in hockey. Now Colorado, especially if the
• 2:02:05
  Wild and Star Series does go to Game 7 might be sitting for
• 2:02:08
  eight days, which could be interesting.
• 2:02:10
  Will that play into? It No, it's not.
• 2:02:12
  They're they're too good 8. Days.
• 2:02:15
  That's not a long time. 8 days of sin.
• 2:02:17
  They'll be fine. They need to they need to get
• 2:02:19
  healthy. They've got a bunch of guys that
• 2:02:21
  have been hurt for a significant time in the in the season and I
• 2:02:25
  love I I'm rooting for all my ex Islanders over there.
• 2:02:27
  So I I want them to win. I want Colorado to win.
• 2:02:30
  I and I love Joe Sakic. I love Joe Sakic.
• 2:02:33
  So I think he's one of the best GMs, one of the more underrated
• 2:02:36
  GMs in all of hockey. And to me, I watched him play at
• 2:02:40
  such a high level. Hall of Famer, played with Peter
• 2:02:43
  Forsberg, those great Colorado teams, I mean, those Corbec
• 2:02:46
  Nordique's all right, shut the music off.
• 2:02:49
  Shut the music off. Shut it off.
• 2:02:51
  They they, they all those Hall of farmers had to like, lift
• 2:02:55
  their arms up to carry Chris Drury to a Stanley Cup.
• 2:02:57
  That's right, smack it, smack it, eat it.
• 2:03:00
  All right, ladies and gentlemen, we're going to go and recap the
• 2:03:05
  NFL Draft. This is going to be fun for all
• 2:03:08
  you Giant fans and Jet fans. You're going to ready and you're
• 2:03:11
  going to eat some smelly testosterone.
• 2:03:15
  Testosterone, right? Speedy.
• 2:03:17
  What? I am not going to say that word
• 2:03:18
  because I don't care about that. Word testes, you know.
• 2:03:20
  Oh, God. Now you're made even weirder.
• 2:03:23
  All right, let's go. Come on.
• 2:03:24
  Come in. Come in, come in.
• 2:03:27
  You want me to go? Yeah.
• 2:03:29
  Yeah, I brought up for on the side, you could go for The Jets.
• 2:03:32
  1st right, the Giants. You want to know my feeling
• 2:03:35
  here, You want to know my feeling.
• 2:03:37
  All right, I'm going to give the New York Jets an A.
• 2:03:41
  I'm going to give him an A. I'm not going to give him a
• 2:03:43
  Plus. I got to see how these players
• 2:03:44
  develop and and how Aaron Glenn. Gets this.
• 2:03:48
  Listen, man, I'm going to try to be honest with you guys.
• 2:03:50
  For all you Jet fans out there, you should be excited.
• 2:03:53
  You got what you needed. And now hopefully Geno Smith can
• 2:03:57
  get the ball to them. Better get the ball to them.
• 2:04:00
  I love David Bailey. I didn't now I'm going to say
• 2:04:03
  this. I would have preferred Reese
• 2:04:05
  because of the other side. I'm just hold on.
• 2:04:07
  I'm going to say let me let me throw it out here.
• 2:04:09
  Hold on. I'm just coming.
• 2:04:11
  I ain't interrupting. I like David Bailey.
• 2:04:13
  I think he's going to be the best pass rusher in this class.
• 2:04:16
  But the more upside guy and by the way, the Giants picked the
• 2:04:18
  wrong guy and Reese, that was the one pick that I questioned.
• 2:04:21
  I would have went with Sonny Styles.
• 2:04:23
  I don't care what Joe Judge. I mean not Joe Judge.
• 2:04:27
  I'm sorry Mr. Joe Shane did because I don't trust Joe Shane.
• 2:04:30
  I never did. But my opinion here is I love
• 2:04:34
  David Bailey. I think he's going to be very
• 2:04:35
  aggressive. He's going to, to me, he's the,
• 2:04:39
  I believe a ready made player. You don't have to wait for this
• 2:04:42
  guy to develop. This guy's already developed.
• 2:04:45
  He can dominate. He already said he's going to be
• 2:04:47
  a three down guy. I think he's going to be so
• 2:04:49
  explosive for the New York Jets. You, if you're Jet fan, you
• 2:04:52
  should be very, very happy with him.
• 2:04:53
  He's going to be playing on both sides of the edge and now you
• 2:04:56
  have a legitimate guy that can go after the quarterback and do
• 2:04:59
  a lot of things. And by the way, Micah Parson
• 2:05:03
  said was his on his list, the best pass rusher in this class.
• 2:05:07
  Micah Parson said that he loves him.
• 2:05:10
  Very interesting to see how his secondary moves will develop.
• 2:05:13
  That was the biggest thing I had coming out of his draft with
• 2:05:15
  him. I still thought.
• 2:05:16
  He was, dude, he's bull rushes people.
• 2:05:18
  I don't think he needs a secondary move.
• 2:05:19
  Well, yeah, that's. That's not going to work in the
• 2:05:21
  NFL I. Was going to say that's the
• 2:05:22
  move. Said he's going to develop a.
• 2:05:24
  Lot more, we'll see. To get to that, to level, to
• 2:05:26
  justify this, but again, still top 10 prospect, like you said.
• 2:05:28
  Q More of a natural pass rusher on the edge, so it's going to be
• 2:05:31
  hard for him in the transition and make an instant impact, at
• 2:05:33
  least from that perspective. Now there were questions with
• 2:05:35
  his run defense, but again, I think this is a prospect that if
• 2:05:38
  developed right still. You don't need it classify that
• 2:05:40
  when you let them talk. You don't need it because you
• 2:05:43
  added the players that you need to the the behemoths that are
• 2:05:46
  going to clog up the middle. They don't need a guy that's
• 2:05:48
  going to clog up the middle. They need the guy to come off
• 2:05:50
  the edge and attack that which they haven't had since John
• 2:05:53
  Abraham. You need the guy to set the
• 2:05:55
  edge. That's what you need.
• 2:05:58
  That's what Speedy's trying to explain, but you won't let him.
• 2:06:00
  Talk, he explains too long. He goes around in a circle.
• 2:06:03
  It's like a merry it's like a merry go round.
• 2:06:05
  It's like a merry go round. He says it over and over and
• 2:06:08
  over again. Listen, just spit it out.
• 2:06:11
  Spit it out. Let's hear your.
• 2:06:12
  Tell the concrete jungles on Thursday.
• 2:06:14
  Yeah, Bailey was the best pit for The Jets, as I have said in
• 2:06:20
  previous episodes. But yeah, I think he'd do well.
• 2:06:23
  I think he will eventually get to the three technique.
• 2:06:27
  I think that he has good explosive skills on the outside,
• 2:06:31
  but I just think that he would dominate more from a three
• 2:06:34
  technique 3 technique and it'll be able to give him that speed
• 2:06:38
  that he would need to actually get to the pass rusher against
• 2:06:41
  prototype NFL guards. During the in regards to the the
• 2:06:46
  offensive tackles and him going against them, like I said
• 2:06:49
  earlier, the board rush ain't going to be as an effective
• 2:06:53
  primary pass rushing technique. So he would have to develop.
• 2:06:58
  I do see some areas in where he need to get better in regards to
• 2:07:01
  his hands and get rid of alignment, but that's
• 2:07:05
  traditional when it comes to coming from college into the
• 2:07:09
  pros. So he got called Dunbar over
• 2:07:11
  there and I know he'll get them right in regards to helping him
• 2:07:13
  with that aspect. But he was the best pick.
• 2:07:16
  He was a good pick. I give the The Jets are a plus.
• 2:07:19
  I don't know if we're going to keep going.
• 2:07:21
  I don't know if we're going to the other two.
• 2:07:22
  I was I I I. Yeah, let me let me ask you a
• 2:07:25
  question though, quick queue about about Bailey, because the
• 2:07:29
  one knock on Bailey was not his pass rushing.
• 2:07:31
  He was obviously the best at that in college football last
• 2:07:34
  year. The knock was his run defense.
• 2:07:37
  And now Speedy was saying set the edge.
• 2:07:39
  You know, I think of setting the edge.
• 2:07:41
  I think I go back to Carl Banks and the Giants.
• 2:07:44
  You know, why was Lawrence Taylor so effective?
• 2:07:45
  Well, you couldn't go the other way because Carl Banks was
• 2:07:47
  there, right? So you were damned if you did,
• 2:07:49
  damned if you didn't. You couldn't run away from him.
• 2:07:52
  You couldn't run at him. It was amazing that you can have
• 2:07:55
  that on one side. Now, Bailey can't really do
• 2:07:57
  that, they say. Now my question to you, Q is,
• 2:08:00
  can you coach good run defense into a guy or is this something
• 2:08:04
  that you just have to have a knack for?
• 2:08:06
  I think you manage it. I don't think you could coach
• 2:08:08
  it. I see it's a mentality type
• 2:08:11
  thing in regards to whether or not you want to play the run or
• 2:08:13
  what not. The good thing about him is only
• 2:08:16
  very few teams that really kind of run the ball, run the ball
• 2:08:18
  like running down your throat. So I think that he'll be OK.
• 2:08:22
  They can basically hide him in some sense.
• 2:08:24
  And basically with that 425 nuclear defense, I think they'll
• 2:08:27
  position him well where you know they're overload on that more on
• 2:08:31
  that side versus the opposite. When you get.
• 2:08:33
  You just worry, right, Because I really, you know, if he doesn't
• 2:08:36
  do that, then they can't play on the field.
• 2:08:38
  All three downs and then that's not a valuable pick as a second
• 2:08:42
  overall pick. That's that's what the worry was
• 2:08:44
  with Bailey and I still think that is a worry.
• 2:08:47
  You know, they The Jets had a guy like that, you know, that
• 2:08:50
  they that they thought could be with Bryce Huff that they like,
• 2:08:53
  oh, a few years ago who was a great, you know.
• 2:08:55
  And he sucked. And he sucked for Philadelphia.
• 2:08:58
  I don't want to hear it. He sucked.
• 2:08:59
  I'm just saying like that role to be that third.
• 2:09:01
  Now he's with Tennessee, I think so great.
• 2:09:03
  But whoever, whoever does that job that year, it's an important
• 2:09:07
  job. But is that a number two overall
• 2:09:08
  pick job? Yes, you know.
• 2:09:09
  What I'm saying? Yeah, it's got a no, no, Bryce
• 2:09:12
  Huff isn't that. You wouldn't say Bryce Huff's
• 2:09:13
  number 2. Guy David Belly.
• 2:09:15
  Say like. David Belly is much better than
• 2:09:17
  Bryce Huff. 100% I'm just saying like if he doesn't pick up the
• 2:09:21
  rush though, he's going to be on the field almost as much as
• 2:09:23
  Bryce Huff instead. It won't be that bad.
• 2:09:26
  It's a, it's a technique, simple technique that he can do that,
• 2:09:29
  that can protect him to get off and then make sure he attacked
• 2:09:33
  that outside shoulder just to set the edge again.
• 2:09:36
  That the the thing that favors him the most is then the fact
• 2:09:39
  that there's a passing lead. Like so majority of the I mean,
• 2:09:42
  you got guys that'll be, you know, 2nd and 9:00 33.
• 2:09:46
  They'll do emotional receiver and throw a little out route.
• 2:09:48
  Like there's going to be more passing down than rundown.
• 2:09:51
  So you're going to run into a few teams, the Seattle's and
• 2:09:54
  etcetera in regards to who runs the ball, run the ball.
• 2:09:57
  I think the football giants might be trying to get back to
• 2:10:00
  that a little bit. But other than other than that,
• 2:10:02
  he's not going to, you know, have that issue of like having
• 2:10:05
  to stop the run day in and day out.
• 2:10:07
  And then and if they do, they're just blitz on his side and then
• 2:10:10
  they'll stop it as well. I love Kenyan Sadiq, I
• 2:10:12
  absolutely love him. I everybody that listens to the
• 2:10:15
  show and understands what I've been watching all season long,
• 2:10:18
  college football and watching Oregon, I think this guy is one
• 2:10:21
  of the best. He is the best red zone guy in
• 2:10:23
  this draft. I don't think you can argue
• 2:10:24
  that. So explosive 6 foot three tight
• 2:10:27
  end, we're on the 4.39. I mean the fastest tight end in
• 2:10:31
  the combine. There's nothing bad to say about
• 2:10:34
  this guy. This guy's going to create so
• 2:10:35
  many mismatches. Who's going to stop him?
• 2:10:37
  What linebacker is going to be able to keep up with him?
• 2:10:39
  I you can move him as a wide receiver, you can move him in
• 2:10:42
  the slot. He's is a great slot player.
• 2:10:44
  They could move him as a running back, prototype guy that can do
• 2:10:47
  things in the back end. This guy can do everything and
• 2:10:50
  he's going to be so explosive in this offense.
• 2:10:52
  He's going to be a blanket for Geno Smith and whoever is the
• 2:10:55
  next quarterback of this team. This is an absolute bomb for the
• 2:10:59
  New York Jets. Love him.
• 2:11:01
  Omar Cooper moving up from 30 to 33 to 30.
• 2:11:04
  A lot of people thought that The Jets were going to move and and
• 2:11:07
  draft him at 16, but they thought it was a little too
• 2:11:09
  high. So getting Kenyan Sadiq and Omar
• 2:11:13
  Cooper junior, you solidify your wide receiving core.
• 2:11:16
  Garrett Wilson on one side, Omar Cooper junior on the other.
• 2:11:20
  I mean, this guy is explosive. Won a national championship, did
• 2:11:24
  everything right all season long.
• 2:11:25
  May 1 of the greatest catches in college football history, as you
• 2:11:28
  see right, right there, gets his feet in special, very special,
• 2:11:33
  and he can run every single route.
• 2:11:35
  He might be The Jets number one in the long run, that's how good
• 2:11:38
  he is. Special player I, I'm very
• 2:11:41
  excited to see this guy play on a football field live, get to
• 2:11:44
  interview him, get to see what he can develop into.
• 2:11:47
  I, I'm, I'm so ecstatic for for Moji Darren Moji's first round
• 2:11:52
  for the New York Jets. Yeah, there's a lot of good
• 2:11:54
  picks to like. I I compared Kenyan Sadiq to a
• 2:11:56
  faster version of Trey McBride. I think besides, he has to clean
• 2:11:59
  up the easy drops sometimes. He had issues with that in
• 2:12:01
  college. That's really the only thing.
• 2:12:02
  But that's a mental thing that could be cleaned up very easily.
• 2:12:03
  His ability is second to none. Cooper, good big body guy, good
• 2:12:07
  hands. I think that actually can make
• 2:12:08
  it work to as good. Good compliment to Garrett
• 2:12:10
  Wilson and the Angelo Pons too. You'll get to him in a bit.
• 2:12:14
  I'd really like to as a steal in the second round as well.
• 2:12:16
  Even though he's small, he's a good, well-rounded skill.
• 2:12:18
  Set I'm gonna get. I got my answers to that one.
• 2:12:21
  Yeah, I thought Sadiq was good. Obviously he was a tremendous
• 2:12:25
  tight end receiver at Oregon and whatnot.
• 2:12:28
  So I think it was a good blanket.
• 2:12:30
  Like you said earlier, it was a good blanket receiver for Gino.
• 2:12:34
  One of one of the things that Gina have a had a problem with
• 2:12:37
  in the past is getting rid of the ball.
• 2:12:39
  And I think with him having that threat right there down in the
• 2:12:42
  middle, these quick out routes and things that nature to kind
• 2:12:45
  of take that pressure, alleviate that pressure from the past
• 2:12:47
  rushing. I think it would be good for
• 2:12:49
  him. And then you go ahead and you
• 2:12:51
  draft Omar Cooper. I think, you know, he's the guy
• 2:12:54
  that's going to fly over the top and and they're kind of
• 2:12:57
  stretched the defense and then kind of have, wasn't it Garrett
• 2:13:02
  Wilson? Garrett Wilson.
• 2:13:03
  Yeah, yeah. Do we more of a yet guy you know
• 2:13:06
  and cross the middle, you know come back routes and things of
• 2:13:09
  that nature because he wouldn't necessarily have to stretch the
• 2:13:12
  defense as much now where he can he pairing up with Mark Cooper.
• 2:13:15
  So I think it's a A+. Again, I want to remind our
• 2:13:20
  listeners that I do think this was a A plus.
• 2:13:22
  I do think this solidified us going to the playoffs this year
• 2:13:25
  and I look. Forward to stop.
• 2:13:27
  This crap stop. You know, You know what it does
• 2:13:29
  do. It allows you to be multiple on
• 2:13:31
  offense right now. You can run 12 personnel and be
• 2:13:34
  fine with it out there. You got both of those tight ends
• 2:13:37
  out there. You can align it.
• 2:13:39
  You can have it allows you to put both tight ends on the same
• 2:13:41
  side of the field. You can do a spread look with
• 2:13:42
  them. You can put one of those guys
• 2:13:44
  like Siddiq did in College in the backfield and act like an
• 2:13:47
  old I formation full back with him running some flat patterns,
• 2:13:50
  some wild bananas as Jon Gruden would say.
• 2:13:53
  You know what I'm saying? Like, there's a lot of cool
• 2:13:55
  stuff you could do now that will free up Garrett Wilson, by the
• 2:13:59
  way, which is probably the idea of this offense because that
• 2:14:02
  guy's still really great. And if you could free him up
• 2:14:05
  with real complimentary pieces, a real slot receiver next to him
• 2:14:09
  and Omar Cooper and a tight end that can do anything else, and
• 2:14:12
  you already have Mason Taylor, you're almost there.
• 2:14:15
  That offense is almost there. I don't know if it's the
• 2:14:17
  promised land as. Yeah, it's, it's just hard to
• 2:14:23
  admit the people, that's all. That's it.
• 2:14:24
  The people, it's hard to admit, that's it.
• 2:14:26
  But they dare. It's not hard.
• 2:14:27
  They dare. It's not.
• 2:14:28
  Payout ready. It's not happening, not this
• 2:14:30
  year. I I love D'Angelo Pons.
• 2:14:34
  I love him and the fact that he felt, I think he's a first round
• 2:14:37
  talent. His size.
• 2:14:39
  There were questions with his size.
• 2:14:41
  Aaron Glenn was small. Darrelle Revis was 510.
• 2:14:44
  This guy doesn't need to be big. This guy plays big, plays rough.
• 2:14:48
  He's mean. He goes out there and he hits.
• 2:14:51
  This guy is as good as anybody in this class.
• 2:14:55
  Everybody keeps talking about the lane.
• 2:14:56
  This guy might even be better than Delane when you look at his
• 2:14:59
  numbers in the analytics. This guy was one of the best in
• 2:15:01
  the country all season long, and he did it at such a high level.
• 2:15:05
  To move down to drop down a couple of spots and still get
• 2:15:08
  him at 50 says a lot about this Jets draft.
• 2:15:11
  This guy could be a number one. I don't care what anybody says.
• 2:15:14
  Oh, he's a slot guy. Oh, he's not big enough.
• 2:15:16
  I don't care. You tell me right now.
• 2:15:18
  This guy, he's not going to punch you right in the mouth at
• 2:15:21
  the line. He is going to punch you.
• 2:15:23
  He's going to make you know that he's going to be there.
• 2:15:25
  You could put him anywhere on the field and he's going to make
• 2:15:28
  you feel it. Go watch the clips.
• 2:15:30
  Go watch the videos. This guy is as good as anybody
• 2:15:34
  in this class. I love this move for Darren
• 2:15:37
  Moji. As far as Darrell Jackson, I
• 2:15:40
  think Darrell Jackson's going to be a good player in this league.
• 2:15:41
  It's going to take him a couple of years to figure it out, but
• 2:15:44
  he's going to get a chance to play on a line with a bunch of
• 2:15:46
  veterans get to see and and get to understand what you have to
• 2:15:50
  play at a high level. I think the kids big.
• 2:15:52
  He's got a tremendous upside fast off the line.
• 2:15:55
  I'm a Florida State fan so I'm happy they they keep drafting
• 2:15:58
  these Florida State guys. So I'm liking it.
• 2:16:00
  The Jets moving up for clay for Kade Klubnik.
• 2:16:03
  This guy two years ago, two years ago was one of the best
• 2:16:06
  quarterbacks in the nation. This this past year had an off
• 2:16:10
  year wasn't healthy. Now, this is a project and you
• 2:16:13
  have right, you have right there, I think Reich is going to
• 2:16:16
  help this kid develop. He's going to be the, I think
• 2:16:19
  he's going to make this team. He's going to be the backup to
• 2:16:21
  Geno Smith. I, I really do like Kate
• 2:16:24
  Klupnik. He's not going to be, he'll
• 2:16:26
  never be a starter for the New York Jets, I don't think.
• 2:16:29
  But a great backup, 100%, whoever you bring in next year,
• 2:16:33
  whoever you draft next year, to have this guy to play behind him
• 2:16:37
  and have a prototypical guy that you can go to if somebody goes
• 2:16:40
  down. I think this guy is going to be
• 2:16:42
  a good quarterback in the NFL, good backup quarterback as we've
• 2:16:45
  seen on as Cooper. I like him.
• 2:16:50
  He's got to develop. He's another guard.
• 2:16:51
  Couple years learning in that often on that offensive line.
• 2:16:55
  He could be the future left or right guard for this New York
• 2:16:57
  Jet team. They're set that offensive line
• 2:17:00
  set. They need a center.
• 2:17:01
  They're going to draft the center next year.
• 2:17:03
  Quote me on this. There's a couple of really big
• 2:17:05
  centers coming out of next year's class.
• 2:17:07
  Expect them to do that. But this is one of the best
• 2:17:09
  young offensive lines in football.
• 2:17:11
  I expect they're going to protect Geno Smith.
• 2:17:13
  I think Bruce Hall is going to have an unbelievable season with
• 2:17:15
  the weapons. They add in.
• 2:17:17
  VJ Payne, a steal in the seventh round, a steal.
• 2:17:21
  I think he's a fourth, early, early fourth round draft pick.
• 2:17:25
  The fact that he fell to the seventh round, a lot of people
• 2:17:27
  can state this guy is a great player.
• 2:17:30
  I think he's going to make this team.
• 2:17:31
  I think he's going to play a big part.
• 2:17:33
  He's going to be on the special teams, but eventually he's going
• 2:17:36
  to earn his way on to that starting line up in as a safety,
• 2:17:39
  free safety, playing with Fitzpatrick.
• 2:17:41
  I I think The Jets have something very special here.
• 2:17:44
  Yeah. He's a guy that I think it could
• 2:17:45
  be used at the end of the game when it comes to the Diamond
• 2:17:47
  quarter defenses and he's a Goodman coverage, not really a
• 2:17:50
  great tackler. So he's not going to play a lot
• 2:17:52
  in the early downs, but not bad for the.
• 2:17:54
  You can learn. You can learn.
• 2:17:56
  Yeah, Klubnik I always liked because I think his traits are
• 2:17:59
  very good. He's a guy that can make a lot
• 2:18:01
  of different intermediate throws.
• 2:18:02
  Again, had a bad year last year as many Clemson players.
• 2:18:04
  They were just bad decision making.
• 2:18:06
  And Jackson, I think is a guy that definitely is a guy you
• 2:18:08
  could plug in on rundowns too. If you need to beef up the
• 2:18:11
  inside like you said earlier with Bailey, maybe just try to
• 2:18:13
  help him with him and obviously sweat who they trade it for to
• 2:18:16
  help have that beef in the middle.
• 2:18:19
  Yeah, I just comment on pause because he was a he was a like
• 2:18:22
  you said earlier, he was a steal.
• 2:18:24
  I think he definitely was more of a late first round type
• 2:18:27
  talent. I would love to see him a little
• 2:18:29
  more patient in regards to coverage.
• 2:18:32
  I don't like my corners to be a hitter that that's, that takes
• 2:18:37
  away and, and from the passing coverage.
• 2:18:40
  And then it also prevents them from and being as great in
• 2:18:45
  protection. I mean, and defending these top
• 2:18:47
  receivers that's going to be flying over the radar.
• 2:18:49
  I do like that he will hit, but a little bit more patience when
• 2:18:53
  it comes to covering. But outside of that, he's a heck
• 2:18:56
  of an athlete all over the field, special teams guy that we
• 2:19:00
  could kind of throw in there for some situations as well.
• 2:19:03
  So yeah, I I think he was definitely a steal for the
• 2:19:07
  second round and I'm glad that we got them and the other guys
• 2:19:10
  they got to earn their keeps, so I won't give too much take on
• 2:19:13
  them. They might be here today and be
• 2:19:15
  gone tomorrow, so I'll leave it at that.
• 2:19:18
  You know, Pons, it gives me like the honey badger kind of feels
• 2:19:21
  like just that kind of goes for the game.
• 2:19:23
  That's slightly different position, right?
• 2:19:25
  But like similar concept, like he just is going to be
• 2:19:29
  aggressive to the ball. He has this IQ about the game.
• 2:19:32
  That's next level. He makes IQ plays like you saw
• 2:19:36
  in the College Football playoffs, taking that pick, that
• 2:19:38
  pick 6 early in the game and just setting the tempo
• 2:19:40
  immediately for that drubbing like Ponz is for real.
• 2:19:44
  That's an amazing pick. He's look, he's like 5758.
• 2:19:48
  That's why he fell, you know? But Aaron Glenn, not much
• 2:19:51
  taller, had a very successful career.
• 2:19:54
  Probably the exact right guy to have drafted him.
• 2:19:56
  Pretty cool. What about the Giants?
• 2:19:59
  Errol? Waiting to hear about this.
• 2:20:01
  All right, So I think the Giants had a great, great draft.
• 2:20:04
  I would go a minus. I I think there's a couple of
• 2:20:06
  spots I question Arvel Reese. We'll see how this guy develops.
• 2:20:10
  I would have went with Sunny Styles, but you can't go wrong
• 2:20:13
  with a guy that has a tremendous amount of talent, could be
• 2:20:15
  explosive and and very, very good.
• 2:20:17
  Francis Magoa. I I think this kid is going to
• 2:20:21
  be one of the best guards in the league.
• 2:20:23
  He's going to be an all pro player.
• 2:20:24
  He's special. You put him right next to
• 2:20:26
  Thomas, who's, I mean, they're going to be able to run the
• 2:20:29
  ball. They're going to be able to
• 2:20:29
  throw the ball. Nobody's going to be able to get
• 2:20:31
  through Jackson darts going to be able to to if they're there
• 2:20:35
  aren't, they have two yards to run.
• 2:20:36
  He's going to be able to run behind them.
• 2:20:38
  These guys are behemoths. I, I, if you're going to ask me
• 2:20:41
  right now who's the better pick, Arvel Reese or Francis Francis
• 2:20:45
  Magoa. I'm going Magoa.
• 2:20:46
  I, I think he is fantastic and I the fact that he fell to 10th
• 2:20:50
  and he's the best, I believe the best offensive lineman in his
• 2:20:53
  class says a lot about what the Giants needed to do to protect
• 2:20:57
  Jackson Darts. So I love that pic.
• 2:20:59
  Yeah, Magoa, I think has the traits that you definitely want
• 2:21:02
  with the size, the quickness fish we talked about, that maybe
• 2:21:05
  has to get a little better with the technique, but I think
• 2:21:07
  that'll come overtime and he's going to start a guard for the
• 2:21:09
  time being. If, again, if one of the guys
• 2:21:11
  get hurt a tackle, they could easily slide him over.
• 2:21:13
  They don't have to worry about the depth issues that they've
• 2:21:14
  had. Reese, again, he's got all the
• 2:21:16
  traits in the world. You've mentioned it, what
• 2:21:18
  position he's going to play in this very versatile defense are
• 2:21:21
  gonna have to get very creative with the first year defensive
• 2:21:23
  coordinator. That's going to be interesting.
• 2:21:25
  But a lot of Harbaugh's defenses have this type of versatility.
• 2:21:27
  So I like it a lot. Yeah, yeah, Reese, I think just
• 2:21:34
  was a bad pick just because you picked Dude Carter the year
• 2:21:37
  before. And I just think it's just going
• 2:21:39
  to be hard to fit him on the air side.
• 2:21:42
  So I do expect him to mix it up and kind of play him back in the
• 2:21:45
  back of position and back of road and every now and then send
• 2:21:49
  him up to the line of rush and things that nature.
• 2:21:51
  But he's he's a heck of an athlete.
• 2:21:53
  But it's not nothing that he does.
• 2:21:55
  It's like solidifies him as a true D Lima or a true
• 2:21:59
  linebacker. He's kind of one of those guys
• 2:22:00
  where you could just throw in the mix and then he can create
• 2:22:04
  and make a play based on wherever you put him.
• 2:22:07
  He had the ability to do that, but I just didn't see where it
• 2:22:10
  fit with the giant and then all Taco Magoo.
• 2:22:14
  I think he, you know, he's top tier.
• 2:22:17
  I thought, you know, he was one of those ones and they
• 2:22:19
  definitely want with him. Obviously, New York has
• 2:22:23
  quarterback issues with the Giants and I know that
• 2:22:26
  everybody's going with Jackson Dark, but, you know, we'll see
• 2:22:28
  how that plays out. But as far as submitted, find
• 2:22:31
  that spot on the old line. I think Francis Miguel was a
• 2:22:34
  great fit. All right, so I got to chime in
• 2:22:37
  in for Arvel Reese, who everyone was saying was the best
• 2:22:41
  defensive player before the draft.
• 2:22:42
  All of a sudden he's not a good pick because the Giants took
• 2:22:45
  him. I get it.
• 2:22:46
  I. Hear.
• 2:22:46
  No, it's just metrics. It's yeah, yeah.
• 2:22:49
  So you say metrics, yes, he's the best one.
• 2:22:51
  But were you talking about on the field because you're not
• 2:22:53
  going to be running 40s, you're not going to be bit pressing
• 2:22:56
  225, you're not going to be broad jumping, That's just
• 2:22:59
  metrics, you know? I got you, but how about what
• 2:23:02
  he's going to do on the field? And you're right, he's only
• 2:23:04
  going to probably be a down pass rushers.
• 2:23:06
  They bring the other guys inside and they just kind of play games
• 2:23:09
  with him. But he's going to be the will
• 2:23:11
  linebacker in the 425. He's going to be standing over B
• 2:23:15
  gap. If they're sliding, they play
• 2:23:16
  like an extra safety out there. He could be out kind of in the
• 2:23:19
  flat. You know what they want to do?
• 2:23:21
  They want to run some kind of quarters coverage queue and they
• 2:23:23
  want him to cover the entire side of the field because he
• 2:23:25
  runs A4440 and he's 250 lbs and he can kill somebody and he's
• 2:23:30
  going to cover the entire sideline.
• 2:23:31
  That's a really valuable thing for first and second down, and
• 2:23:35
  then you can bring him off the edge because he's that good on
• 2:23:37
  3rd down. You do that and you have Abdul
• 2:23:39
  Carter on the other side during 1st and 2nd with him on 1st and
• 2:23:43
  2nd down. That's scary.
• 2:23:45
  Oh my God, the kind of stunts they would play together, That's
• 2:23:48
  crazy. I got a proposition for you,
• 2:23:51
  Sadiq out there at receiver and Orville have to move out to
• 2:23:55
  cover him. Who you got?
• 2:23:56
  Sadiq. Sadiq well.
• 2:23:59
  They would have three. They would have coverage.
• 2:24:01
  Keep. Running.
• 2:24:02
  What I'm saying like, that's what he's going to have to face.
• 2:24:06
  The one thing that made Reese very good as a as a versatile
• 2:24:09
  guy is his screen coverage. I'm not going to trust him in
• 2:24:12
  man coverage. I don't know if anybody, I don't
• 2:24:13
  know if anybody's, I don't know if anybody's seen Sadiq play.
• 2:24:16
  And if you haven't, go watch the clips.
• 2:24:19
  I watch the play all season long.
• 2:24:20
  That kid is a beast. He is a beast.
• 2:24:23
  You talk about Brock Bowers, you talk about Trey.
• 2:24:26
  This guy is just, he's as good as any one of those guys.
• 2:24:28
  Give him three years, he's going to be an elite player.
• 2:24:30
  Elite. It depends.
• 2:24:32
  Q Like if you're talking about is he going to be able to cover
• 2:24:34
  the flat pass, I think Reese will cover any flat pass.
• 2:24:37
  I don't care if it's Sadiq or anybody else.
• 2:24:39
  But if you're telling me if he's going to cover him downfield, I
• 2:24:41
  don't know. I'm with you on that.
• 2:24:42
  One yeah, well, I mean if you got seen flat, he got 5 and out
• 2:24:46
  right or up to 10 yards and that's.
• 2:24:47
  All I'm saying. More likely I.
• 2:24:49
  Don't like that? Match up with.
• 2:24:50
  Not against tight ass. No, Yeah, but you might go on to
• 2:24:55
  the that's why you run 3 safeties though, right?
• 2:24:57
  That's why you run the third safety and you let him take care
• 2:25:00
  of Sadiq and you just man him up on him and you do something
• 2:25:03
  weird so you can bring pressure. Good luck.
• 2:25:05
  That's. What they're going to do, Stefan
• 2:25:06
  Holland could cover better than he did last year, right?
• 2:25:10
  Yeah, well, we got another guy, Errol, to talk about.
• 2:25:12
  Why don't you talk about Mr. Colton Hood, who's going to be
• 2:25:14
  doing all the covering for the Giants?
• 2:25:16
  Here's the thing, for all the guys that were still available
• 2:25:19
  on the list, Terrell was still there and Ponds was still there.
• 2:25:23
  You went with Colton Hood, a lot of questions there.
• 2:25:26
  I'm not saying Colton Hood's bad.
• 2:25:28
  I think he's going to be a good player in the league elite.
• 2:25:31
  I mean there were two guys that a lot of people thought were
• 2:25:33
  should have been first round talent.
• 2:25:34
  Colton Hood was a second round talent in everybody's list.
• 2:25:38
  So I looking at the two guys that you drafted before that
• 2:25:44
  were drafted after him. I think honestly, I think this
• 2:25:46
  was a bad pick. Yeah, there were other corners I
• 2:25:49
  would have taken there, too. I also like the one Green Bay
• 2:25:51
  drafted with SIS as well out of South Carolina.
• 2:25:54
  Hood didn't allow a touchdown last year.
• 2:25:55
  That's the biggest. He's good, he's good.
• 2:25:57
  Yeah, I'm not going to say it was.
• 2:25:59
  It wouldn't have been my favorite pick in that spot, but
• 2:26:01
  they needed to go corner, obviously.
• 2:26:02
  Obviously, these free agents. And I'm not worked out.
• 2:26:04
  I'm sorry to cut you off. I'm not trying to take shots at
• 2:26:06
  the Giants. I'm just telling you what I saw
• 2:26:08
  and with when you look at the list of guys that were still out
• 2:26:11
  there, still available, they should have I I would have taken
• 2:26:13
  pawns over him any day, any day, Tyrell over him any day.
• 2:26:19
  Why wouldn't you go after the two guys that were profiled to
• 2:26:22
  be first round talents? And that that that was the thing
• 2:26:24
  that had to do with the run of these corners.
• 2:26:26
  I guess Joe, Shane. They had to trust that I maybe
• 2:26:29
  they're because they're trusting more man scheme because if fish
• 2:26:31
  we talked about last week, he's more of a man type guy.
• 2:26:34
  I that's where maybe John Harbaugh saw that more because
• 2:26:37
  his Raven scheme is usually more his own now transition more to
• 2:26:40
  man. Maybe they're trying to do that
• 2:26:41
  more? What do you think, Hugh, about
• 2:26:45
  that defense out there? Yeah, I'm not mad at the pit and
• 2:26:50
  I I think that Harbaugh can kind of plug him in obviously that
• 2:26:54
  you know, from a talent wise, he probably wasn't the best overall
• 2:26:58
  talent in some of guys opinion or whatnot, but I think this
• 2:27:01
  might have been where y'all did start to get it right in regards
• 2:27:04
  to the draft. I like Hood.
• 2:27:06
  I don't I think he's he'll be well versed in your defense and
• 2:27:10
  I think he can stop people and and y'all like physical
• 2:27:13
  quarterbacks. He still got kind of a little
• 2:27:14
  bit of the size on his arm he got.
• 2:27:17
  He has size. So I think that it'll work out
• 2:27:20
  perfect for you guys. I think it was a good pick.
• 2:27:21
  I think that's where y'all hit it on the head without.
• 2:27:23
  That that's what Harbaugh is doing.
• 2:27:25
  Like every pick is about size, obviously.
• 2:27:27
  And the next pick is to Errol. The Giants traded up.
• 2:27:31
  They didn't have a third round pick as they traded for Jackson
• 2:27:33
  to move up for Jackson Dart last year.
• 2:27:36
  So they ended up trading up to fourth round picks and A and A
• 2:27:40
  and a fifth in order to get Malachi.
• 2:27:43
  Feel I like it. 64222 at a Notre Dame Big target.
• 2:27:50
  I like it. I I don't know if he's a #1 or
• 2:27:54
  #2. I think he's going to be used in
• 2:27:56
  many different ways in that offense.
• 2:27:59
  He's, he's not one of the faster guys in this class, but he's,
• 2:28:03
  he's got the ability to get into the red zone, catch the ball and
• 2:28:07
  he's got great hands. So I I think what they're trying
• 2:28:09
  to do now is get guys out there that can catch the ball because
• 2:28:13
  for years they've drafted guys with pot hands.
• 2:28:16
  Yeah, that's that's the study thing that you like with this
• 2:28:18
  official. I told you that on the phone
• 2:28:19
  too. Like you're not going to have to
• 2:28:21
  have a Darius Slaton situation or Jaylen Hyatt situation.
• 2:28:24
  Gregson. I thought Hyatt at the time was
• 2:28:26
  a good pick because I thought he was a second round pick, but
• 2:28:27
  still there were flaws in his game that he never cleaned up
• 2:28:30
  and clearly the coaches didn't see it.
• 2:28:31
  Now there are guys ahead of them I liked a little more.
• 2:28:33
  I like the one Carolina took the most with Brazil.
• 2:28:35
  So I guess you maybe guys want to stay away from Tennessee.
• 2:28:37
  Wide receiver fine, but got him a Landon drafting Zachariah
• 2:28:40
  Branch, but I probably liked him a little more.
• 2:28:42
  But for what the role is going to be, Fisher mentioned in red
• 2:28:44
  zone targets good hands. I think he could get a good
• 2:28:46
  player. Yeah, good hands, tall, big
• 2:28:50
  target. You know, Harper loves those
• 2:28:53
  type prototype receivers and Cambodia he had picked up one
• 2:28:57
  time with the Ravens and things of that nature.
• 2:28:58
  So I think he's you know, I think it's just one of his picks
• 2:29:02
  that he liked. Obviously you need a more
• 2:29:04
  offensive weapons on the outside and so it was a good pair.
• 2:29:07
  So that was the second piggy then.
• 2:29:08
  So I think you guys hit it on the later end and fumble it on
• 2:29:11
  the on the front end. I don't know if he's a fumble
• 2:29:14
  man. I wouldn't say fumble.
• 2:29:16
  Watch R Val Reese be dominant. I didn't like how I didn't like
• 2:29:20
  how R Val Reese talked to the media.
• 2:29:22
  He made it seem like it's a short thing.
• 2:29:25
  He just, he didn't answer the questions the way I would have
• 2:29:29
  wanted my player to answer the questions.
• 2:29:32
  So there's no more media training?
• 2:29:33
  No more. So you're not gonna get I.
• 2:29:35
  Got it. I got it's.
• 2:29:36
  Ohio State, the Ohio State, they are a little, you know.
• 2:29:40
  But it's a lot just talking crazy in these.
• 2:29:44
  Dude, he was kind of nasty, you know?
• 2:29:48
  He'll find out he in the right media market.
• 2:29:50
  Yeah, fields, Fields is perfect compliment to neighbors.
• 2:29:53
  If he's what they say he's going to be right.
• 2:29:55
  Like that's what you want the big, the big body target, the
• 2:29:58
  red zone target, not fast, but gets open.
• 2:30:01
  That's that's, that's more important than being.
• 2:30:03
  Fast, but you're getting open. But it could have been Jordan
• 2:30:06
  Tyson, it could have been Tate. They went this route, you know,
• 2:30:10
  I'm just. Saying Tate was gone before they
• 2:30:12
  could draft and Tyson. They weren't going to take over
• 2:30:15
  Reese or Styles, obviously, because they didn't.
• 2:30:18
  I'm just saying look. I have to tell you, I did the
• 2:30:21
  research because I know I heard it said Mao Noah.
• 2:30:24
  Apparently it is Mao Noah. The G is silent and it's assumed
• 2:30:32
  because it's the word Maui. Like Hawaii.
• 2:30:35
  There's an an invisible N That's NGOA.
• 2:30:39
  Maui pronounced Noah Maui Maui Noah Maui Noah Noah Maui.
• 2:30:43
  Easier to say. Maui.
• 2:30:44
  Maui, Noah. Yeah, Well, anyway, now he's
• 2:30:48
  going to be a beast, but he is going to play guard and they
• 2:30:51
  drafted a guard at 10 and that's basically what they did.
• 2:30:54
  Is he going to eventually be a tackle?
• 2:30:55
  I think he will after Luminor's contract's done.
• 2:30:57
  He'll eventually move out there, like you said, Speedy, but you
• 2:31:00
  got to be able to run the football and you got to be able
• 2:31:02
  to protect this guy's mean, he said.
• 2:31:04
  Immediately, Errol, I'm going to die for Jackson.
• 2:31:07
  I heard that was like. The first thing out of his
• 2:31:10
  mouth, that's a little much. But if you if they have to be a
• 2:31:12
  little much, you got to be a little much.
• 2:31:14
  You should be playing guard. So thank you very much.
• 2:31:18
  I think, I think Maui Noah was the best pick the Giants had in
• 2:31:23
  this class. I think he's the best offensive
• 2:31:25
  lineman in this class. He might help them solidify that
• 2:31:28
  offensive line. But the other?
• 2:31:29
  Over downs, yes, that's what they did it over.
• 2:31:32
  Down I would have. I would have done.
• 2:31:34
  You need to protect your asset, Jackson thought.
• 2:31:36
  Your guy. So protect him.
• 2:31:38
  Protect him. He did the right thing.
• 2:31:40
  Is that's a thought the guy? I don't know.
• 2:31:42
  I think so. I I don't know.
• 2:31:44
  I yeah, throw the ball. Trial error.
• 2:31:46
  Yeah, let's, let's see if. He.
• 2:31:48
  Let's see him throw the ball and we'll talk, Bobby.
• 2:31:52
  Jameson yeah, Take a look at the sixth round.
• 2:31:54
  There's three of them real quick.
• 2:31:55
  Bobby Jameson Travis. He was not on a lot of people's
• 2:31:58
  lists. At all I was just about to say,
• 2:31:59
  but. JC Davis, a swing tackle.
• 2:32:03
  They they're thinking about moving Marcus Bow inside to like
• 2:32:06
  maybe set a backup center. So maybe this guy's going to
• 2:32:08
  replace him as a swing tackle type.
• 2:32:10
  And then Jack Kelly is an interesting player at a BYU, Big
• 2:32:15
  time linebacker out in the mountains over there.
• 2:32:19
  Not as fast as maybe you'd like, but he seems to be like a super
• 2:32:23
  special teams type of guy going forwards.
• 2:32:24
  I'll tell you this, Bobby Jamison, Travis, I don't know
• 2:32:28
  much about him, but a lot of people think he should have been
• 2:32:31
  an undrafted player. I don't know if this is an
• 2:32:33
  absolute slam dunk for him. JC Davis, I don't even think
• 2:32:37
  he's going to make the team. Jack Kelly, he's going to make
• 2:32:39
  the team. I like him.
• 2:32:41
  I think he's, I think you could have been a higher draft pick.
• 2:32:44
  I was reading some things about him.
• 2:32:46
  He's a leader. He's a senior BYUIII like Jack
• 2:32:51
  Kelly. I think he could be a big
• 2:32:52
  special teams guy, maybe eventually make that starting
• 2:32:55
  line up. I mean, he's got the
• 2:32:56
  personality, a Pierce type of guy.
• 2:32:58
  That's what everybody keeps saying, a guy that can call the
• 2:33:00
  plays at the line and be a leader there for the New York
• 2:33:03
  Giants. I like the move.
• 2:33:05
  Yeah, I think it may be just an inside run defense special if
• 2:33:07
  he's going to get starting those.
• 2:33:08
  But yeah, mostly special teams for him.
• 2:33:10
  I would imagine what Davis, he's going to be a rotational guy as
• 2:33:13
  well. Fish, like you're saying, a
• 2:33:14
  backup guard depth, but I don't think much more than that.
• 2:33:16
  And I agree with you on Jameson Travis, he's probably going to
• 2:33:19
  be an undrafted. He was rotational kind of in
• 2:33:21
  Auburn, too. All right, well, let's talk
• 2:33:24
  about the other New York team, which is, as John Fina pointed
• 2:33:28
  out during the draft, the only New York team, which is the
• 2:33:32
  Buffalo Bills. They traded 3 times out of the
• 2:33:37
  first round. They traded down, down, down.
• 2:33:39
  They ended up with 35 told you 621-O2125126 lot of picks.
• 2:33:47
  So here's who they got that told.
• 2:33:49
  You. TJ Parker, the edge rusher.
• 2:33:52
  Love. It goes to them that they
• 2:33:54
  obviously needed the corner from Ohio State.
• 2:33:58
  Davison, David Newson, and then they took an interesting project
• 2:34:04
  tackle, I believe the Boston College kid, Jude Bowery, the
• 2:34:08
  wide receiver out of Connecticut.
• 2:34:09
  A lot of people like Skyler Bell and the linebacker Caleb earns
• 2:34:14
  or. Everybody said they didn't have
• 2:34:15
  a first round, they didn't have a first round, blah, blah, blah.
• 2:34:18
  Everybody rated the the Buffalo Bills in an A, Some people had
• 2:34:21
  them in an A+. Plus, what they did, they wanted
• 2:34:25
  to drive picks because they need positions to be filled.
• 2:34:30
  There are older players on this roster and they need the future
• 2:34:33
  to be filled. TJ Parker to me is a beast.
• 2:34:36
  I watch them play Clemson. Everybody knows I watched a lot
• 2:34:38
  of Clemson games. Guys a beast, an absolute beast.
• 2:34:42
  I I Ohio State cornerbacks are always successful, always
• 2:34:46
  successful in the NFL if. They're drafted by the Giants.
• 2:34:48
  Yeah, exactly. But mainly they're very
• 2:34:51
  successful. So Davidson, I I I've read about
• 2:34:54
  him, didn't get a chance to see him much because I didn't watch
• 2:34:57
  a lot of Ohio State games. I'm not a Buckeyes fan, but I've
• 2:35:01
  heard this kid is. He's an incredible player.
• 2:35:03
  He's going to be good. And Jude Bowery, everybody says
• 2:35:06
  that his ability and his understanding of playing a
• 2:35:09
  position, they think he's a guard.
• 2:35:11
  They think he's a guard, but he could play tackle as well and
• 2:35:14
  you can move him on that fly. Skylar Bell, love it, love it.
• 2:35:18
  He got, he felt in them in the first round.
• 2:35:21
  I mean fourth round. I'm sorry.
• 2:35:22
  He's some people thought he was a late second round talent.
• 2:35:24
  He's a fourth round pick at 1:25.
• 2:35:27
  Love it. I'm going to tell you this right
• 2:35:29
  now for everybody that said I was crazy and I, I know you guys
• 2:35:33
  think I'm crazy. What Buffalo did, what Buffalo
• 2:35:36
  did, training down in the first round the way they did to
• 2:35:39
  solidify this team in the future.
• 2:35:41
  I think this was a pretty good move for this team.
• 2:35:43
  I I think they had a very good draft.
• 2:35:45
  Yeah, Parker was conceded as a first round pick in a lot of
• 2:35:48
  drafts, so getting good value there.
• 2:35:49
  They knew they weren't him with these drop.
• 2:35:51
  Playoffs people think he's the best edge wresher in his class.
• 2:35:53
  Yeah, there was a lot of debates with that, like in that and that
• 2:35:56
  first round cluster ever soon. I think a long corner that they
• 2:36:00
  definitely could use compliments the other guys that they have
• 2:36:02
  well, if they need a press coverage specialist, I don't
• 2:36:05
  think you'll play a lot of snaps if their corners healthy.
• 2:36:07
  This was the number one pass defense in the NFL last year.
• 2:36:09
  And like you said, Bell, very good red zone type guy, got to
• 2:36:11
  work on some cleaning up with drops, but again, pretty good
• 2:36:14
  overall. One guy you didn't mention
• 2:36:15
  though, Fish, I want to touch on his Jalen Kilgore.
• 2:36:17
  He's actually one of my my favorite picks, kind of a third
• 2:36:20
  round grade, but he fell into the fifth round, I think a
• 2:36:22
  versatile Nickelback type safety.
• 2:36:25
  Let me go through the later picks.
• 2:36:26
  I was going to do the. I like Kilgore too, by the way.
• 2:36:28
  But Kilgore, you got Zane Durant, Penn State D tackle goes
• 2:36:33
  to them in the fifth round as well.
• 2:36:34
  They take the punter from Florida in the seventh.
• 2:36:36
  Great. He's one of the best punters in
• 2:36:38
  this draft. Diamond.
• 2:36:40
  You need a great punter, you laugh, but you need a great
• 2:36:42
  punter in this league. He would have been there after
• 2:36:45
  he would have been there trust. Me you never know they'll
• 2:36:48
  they've tried you know they tried with the punt God and we
• 2:36:51
  know that didn't exactly work out right for them for reasons
• 2:36:53
  that really weren't that kids fault but didn't really work
• 2:36:57
  out. Let's see if this kid works out
• 2:36:59
  Dom and I I the bills just make smart moves Errol they they make
• 2:37:04
  smart moves. Beans knows what he's doing
• 2:37:06
  except when you do this you got it.
• 2:37:08
  That's why you have to have a lot of picks because you never
• 2:37:11
  know with these second or third or fourth round picks, you never
• 2:37:14
  know. Like it could be, you know,
• 2:37:16
  they're really good in college and then like the physicality,
• 2:37:18
  they just can't match up to it. Or maybe they don't love
• 2:37:21
  football as much and that's that's something that made them
• 2:37:23
  drop in the draft. You never know what the reason
• 2:37:26
  is. You just assume that there's a
• 2:37:27
  lower rate of success the lower you go in the draft.
• 2:37:30
  So it's a risky move. It's a ballsy move by a guy who
• 2:37:33
  says I can scout like a like a. Lot of people also liked Zane
• 2:37:36
  Durant being drafted in the fifth round.
• 2:37:39
  Some people on some people projected him to be a third
• 2:37:41
  round talent. Penn State defensive tackle.
• 2:37:44
  I, I think he's going to make the team too.
• 2:37:47
  I, I, I like what the Buffalo Bills did.
• 2:37:50
  They need to solidify positions. There's older players on this
• 2:37:53
  team. I think they're going to put
• 2:37:55
  themselves in a Russo is going to move to linebacker.
• 2:37:57
  I think eventually he's going to go back to pass rush because
• 2:37:59
  they need him there. You can't switch him as Q was
• 2:38:02
  saying, you can't turn him from from one position to another
• 2:38:05
  later in his career. I think Russo, Russo will be
• 2:38:08
  back at that defensive end position.
• 2:38:11
  But I like everything what the Buffalo Bills did.
• 2:38:14
  I think they're gonna solidify certain positions and I think
• 2:38:17
  they're gonna be they've they've got a future.
• 2:38:19
  B knows what he's doing. That's all I'm gonna.
• 2:38:22
  Say. That's it.
• 2:38:23
  That's the and that's what we need to say.
• 2:38:24
  They have a future. They didn't, they didn't win the
• 2:38:27
  draft. They just, you know, plugged in
• 2:38:28
  the right pieces and now they have a future.
• 2:38:31
  But as in regards to immediate impact, maybe TJ Parker, but I
• 2:38:36
  understand other than that is to be seen.
• 2:38:38
  OK, I remember you said that. Remember, don't remember because
• 2:38:41
  I mean because they're going to lose 2 games to The Jets, so.
• 2:38:45
  You're on. Drugs.
• 2:38:46
  You're on drugs? What is this, the sequels?
• 2:38:48
  Fish, Do we ever had Collier shot sequels?
• 2:38:51
  And then then they fired the head coach.
• 2:38:53
  So you know, everything is in rebuild more right now.
• 2:38:56
  They're trying. To they're not rebuilding, dude.
• 2:38:58
  They're not rebuilding. They got the best, one of the
• 2:39:01
  best quarterbacks in all of the NFL and you think they're
• 2:39:03
  rebuilding? Rebuild.
• 2:39:05
  Yeah, you're crazy. Maybe they're just realistic and
• 2:39:08
  they know that Josh Allen, without Josh Allen, that's a
• 2:39:11
  four win team, you know what I mean?
• 2:39:13
  That's with a lot of teams. Team that's with a lot of teams.
• 2:39:15
  But I'm saying if the. Jets.
• 2:39:17
  If The Jets have Josh Allen, The Jets win 1112 games.
• 2:39:20
  It's a fact. Probably 8:00 and 9:00 with with
• 2:39:23
  Chino. What?
• 2:39:24
  Did you say they're not making the playoffs?
• 2:39:27
  They're not making the playoffs 8:00 and 9:00, right?
• 2:39:29
  Just so you. Know we know it.
• 2:39:30
  I'm just saying the first wild party.
• 2:39:32
  They're not making the playoffs 8.
• 2:39:33
  And nine, yeah, defensive specialty that could get us to.
• 2:39:36
  They're not making the playoffs 8:00 and 9:00, just so you know.
• 2:39:39
  I'm not saying they're gonna be 8.
• 2:39:40
  I said win 8 or 9 games. Gino himself can win 8 or 9
• 2:39:43
  games. Oh OK, what drugs are you on
• 2:39:48
  right now? I'm just telling you the truth.
• 2:39:50
  You want to. You want to.
• 2:39:51
  I'm a real Jets. Guy.
• 2:39:53
  I'm a real Jets fan. I'm keeping it real.
• 2:39:57
  I got the good one. I got the good one.
• 2:39:59
  I got the good. Happens when we made the path,
• 2:40:01
  we made the wild card. This.
• 2:40:02
  Year I'm going to tell you I'm going to tell you you were
• 2:40:04
  right, but what happens if they don't?
• 2:40:06
  Which I'm 80% right and I'm going to say I want you to tell
• 2:40:09
  me Errol, you got the beautiful feet.
• 2:40:11
  I'm going to kiss him now. I'm.
• 2:40:13
  Going to kiss your feet? Always take it.
• 2:40:15
  I'm going to kiss your feet, my friend.
• 2:40:17
  Be the weird. Listen, what are your I'm going
• 2:40:19
  to make sure I'm going to make sure that my my foot is nice and
• 2:40:23
  clean for you. I'm nice and beautiful for.
• 2:40:25
  You. This is Q, not Britney.
• 2:40:30
  Q There's a bigger example of that.
• 2:40:32
  Errol's friend Danny is the ultimate foot lover.
• 2:40:34
  That's true, right? That's true.
• 2:40:35
  Well. I mean you, I mean Rex Ryan, you
• 2:40:37
  know, New York Jets, like that's a tradition in that that part of
• 2:40:41
  town. So I get it.
• 2:40:42
  I guess so. Yeah, Yeah, yeah.
• 2:40:44
  Actually got this fetish? Yeah.
• 2:40:46
  Hey Speedy, I told you to write down a couple of like
• 2:40:49
  interesting guys who dropped and maybe got overdrafted.
• 2:40:52
  This the one that we should talk about is Jermad McCoy, who was
• 2:40:56
  projected to be a top 15 pick and the medical on his knee
• 2:41:00
  apparently wasn't very good. He ended up being taken in the
• 2:41:03
  first pick on day three by the Raiders in the fourth round.
• 2:41:07
  What were you hearing about him and how surprising is this fall?
• 2:41:10
  Well, I, I talked to you about this.
• 2:41:12
  Remind me last year with Will Johnson with the same kind of
• 2:41:14
  thing, who was my favorite corner in the draft and he slid
• 2:41:16
  all the way to the second round and McCoy was out even longer
• 2:41:19
  than that. And there's concern with his
• 2:41:22
  game as well. He had a good year in 24, but
• 2:41:24
  it's something where he wasn't a super well-rounded prospect
• 2:41:27
  where it was going to be a slide.
• 2:41:29
  If they know those medicals were not going to happen that way,
• 2:41:31
  the Raiders at that point in the fourth round, they probably
• 2:41:33
  scouted him in other instances and said, all right, we can wait
• 2:41:36
  it out a little longer. And I'm sure Tom Brady and on
• 2:41:39
  Spy Tech were on the phone with all these other GM's as well.
• 2:41:41
  So I think it's going to take him a little while to come back.
• 2:41:43
  I think he'll play well more towards the end of the season,
• 2:41:45
  but I still think he's raw enough in some areas.
• 2:41:47
  I couldn't believe he was there. I could not believe he was there
• 2:41:52
  fourth round. This guy was a first round
• 2:41:54
  graded talent because he tore his ACL.
• 2:41:56
  He's a corner, He's not a wide receiver.
• 2:41:58
  He's a corner and he's a great corner and he's mean too and he
• 2:42:02
  plays at a high level. I don't think it's going to make
• 2:42:05
  a difference. Remember George Pickens?
• 2:42:07
  That was a wide receiver. He tore his ACL and he fell to
• 2:42:10
  the second round. How good is George Pickens?
• 2:42:13
  How good is George Pickens? As good as he could do until he
• 2:42:15
  keeps his brain. That's a wide receiver.
• 2:42:17
  I'm just resting my case. Here, possession receiver, you
• 2:42:19
  know, Dallas doesn't seem to. He is a great wide receiver.
• 2:42:23
  Got kicked out of Pittsburgh. They don't value him, they don't
• 2:42:26
  value him. They.
• 2:42:27
  Didn't sign him, they gave him extension.
• 2:42:29
  That's because he's going to get about 40 something, $1,000,000.
• 2:42:32
  Well, we'll see. Good luck.
• 2:42:33
  But yeah, I think the kid should take it as a blessing in this
• 2:42:37
  guys man. I think now he gets to dictate
• 2:42:40
  his feature. He go out and ball for one or
• 2:42:43
  two years. Now you get a big contract
• 2:42:45
  instead of have to play out that four to three to four year with
• 2:42:48
  going first to second round. So you know, this is an
• 2:42:50
  opportunity for him to kind of bounce back and control his
• 2:42:53
  destiny within his league. So I just said, you know, if he
• 2:42:56
  listening, just go out there and ball out man and have a have
• 2:43:00
  yourself a good year or two and then you know, renegotiate your
• 2:43:03
  contract and get paid early. By the way, Nathan, Nathan, stop
• 2:43:07
  with this cowboy sign. Marquez, Vendis, Scantlin.
• 2:43:11
  He who cares? Guy stinks, please.
• 2:43:15
  And Tyler Johnson. That's what we're that's what
• 2:43:18
  you're selling me with the Cowboys.
• 2:43:20
  Yes, I know all about Tyler Johnson.
• 2:43:23
  Garbage. Jeff's boy when he was at with
• 2:43:25
  the garbage in that one year. Oh, watch out for him.
• 2:43:28
  He's going to be. A Do you want to drip me off?
• 2:43:30
  I got to go back off. That's what I will probably do
• 2:43:33
  when I watch these guys playing a football field.
• 2:43:35
  Oh. That championship team so.
• 2:43:36
  Fish on. Yeah, that's what I'm going to.
• 2:43:41
  Be doing it's game. I want TV, I want to switch.
• 2:43:44
  It here. Breaking news glory hole.
• 2:43:49
  Oh God. Stop it.
• 2:43:51
  Alright, go ahead. I was.
• 2:43:52
  Going to mention I want to go to the.
• 2:43:53
  What I thought that was most of the most opposite extreme was
• 2:43:56
  the. First was.
• 2:43:57
  The first pick actually in the second.
• 2:43:59
  Mom. Dejean Stribling, the receiver
• 2:44:01
  for the 49ers. I got drafted.
• 2:44:03
  I thought that was one of the biggest reaches in the draft.
• 2:44:06
  I was seeing more like late third round pick at most with
• 2:44:08
  him. We've seen the Niners do this a
• 2:44:09
  lot with a lot of these unconventional reaches that have
• 2:44:12
  worked and some that haven't worked.
• 2:44:14
  I mean, obviously Debo Samuel worked out, but I don't think a
• 2:44:16
  lot of people thought he was the second round pick.
• 2:44:17
  But even before that, you had guys like Jalen Hurd and Dante
• 2:44:20
  Pettis went to the Giants later. That didn't work out for the
• 2:44:23
  49ers. They trying to get too cute and
• 2:44:24
  a lot of reporters are criticizing him for.
• 2:44:26
  Speedy sleeps with endangered animals.
• 2:44:30
  I I like the Jaguars taking a blocking tight end.
• 2:44:33
  Yeah, that was a weird one too. I like the rest of their draft
• 2:44:35
  besides that, but that was a weird one too.
• 2:44:38
  That was weird, we saw that pick in the first round during the
• 2:44:41
  draft party. I think the Titans traded up to
• 2:44:44
  take like the 4th best guard on the.
• 2:44:46
  Rutledge, I think his name was. Rutledge.
• 2:44:48
  Yeah, from yeah. And that, that or the Texans.
• 2:44:52
  That's what it was. And those were some curious
• 2:44:54
  picks. The 49ers, like you said,
• 2:44:56
  speedy. A team that trades out of the
• 2:44:58
  first round. I thought they had very good
• 2:44:59
  drafts, but. But again, it's like you think
• 2:45:02
  you know better, you're so smart and then you're too smart for
• 2:45:06
  your own good because these guys aren't good.
• 2:45:08
  You just don't. You're just grading different
• 2:45:09
  than everybody that this Sean's stribling pick that if that's.
• 2:45:12
  All they squeeze the cheese. Out of the first two rounds of
• 2:45:15
  this draft. That's embarrassing.
• 2:45:17
  A lot of people were saying they they took the Indiana running
• 2:45:19
  back black circle in the middle third round as well.
• 2:45:24
  Suck my Hindu. Definitely rated one of the
• 2:45:26
  lowest, but you know, Errol, that is the draft they add.
• 2:45:30
  That's why they play the games. We'll see just how good the
• 2:45:33
  Giants are and how, you know, marginally.
• 2:45:36
  Of course, of course he had to add.
• 2:45:38
  He had to add that. Well, Deonte loved it.
• 2:45:42
  They got shot with the Philadelphia Eagles.
• 2:45:44
  Was a crazy one too. I I I mean to add that to the
• 2:45:47
  office time. But I think the craziest thing
• 2:45:50
  that happened in the draft, the craziest thing that happened in
• 2:45:52
  the draft is Malachi Lemon was talking to Pittsburgh's GM and
• 2:45:57
  then all of a sudden, Philadelphia, the GM of
• 2:45:59
  Philadelphia, Roseman reached out and said that, you know,
• 2:46:02
  reached out to him and and gave him a call to say we're drafting
• 2:46:05
  you here. That was embarrassing.
• 2:46:07
  That was embarrassing from Pittsburgh.
• 2:46:08
  That was that was the same Omar Khan that got a contract
• 2:46:10
  extension. Absolutely embarrassing.
• 2:46:14
  I I, I, I think Pittsburgh should be ashamed of.
• 2:46:16
  Himself, but you can't do nothing about it.
• 2:46:18
  I know you're a Pittsburgh fan, so you're.
• 2:46:19
  Going to we definitely I think they.
• 2:46:20
  Had a good offseason. Besides that though, Q The
• 2:46:23
  Steelers free agency I thought was good though, Like they.
• 2:46:26
  Had a good yeah, yeah, yeah, for sure.
• 2:46:27
  Yeah, we locked in. Yeah, we locked.
• 2:46:29
  Well, I don't know if they're locked in.
• 2:46:30
  They don't have a quarterback yet, so.
• 2:46:32
  Yep, Air Rogers is ABR quarterback.
• 2:46:33
  Now they got to worry about Dexter.
• 2:46:34
  Everybody knows. Everybody knows.
• 2:46:36
  Air Rogers be the quarterback. We know this.
• 2:46:38
  Hopefully, hopefully he could find his way, find his way back
• 2:46:42
  through. The he went towards the end of
• 2:46:44
  towards training camp. He will find his way.
• 2:46:48
  Good. I'll, I'll go over there and
• 2:46:49
  smoke a joint with him. Let's do it all right?
• 2:46:51
  You can you can hang out with his his his hand, his
• 2:46:54
  girlfriend. Miss Brittany as he says his.
• 2:46:57
  Wife, he's good. Yeah, his wife that nobody's
• 2:46:59
  ever met before in anybody's life.
• 2:47:02
  I mean, the guy is nobody has met his wife, but he's married.
• 2:47:06
  His best, his best friends. Don't know who she is but.
• 2:47:09
  He's married a little. That's wait, that's what he's
• 2:47:12
  told. A little weird, man, that's a
• 2:47:14
  little weird. I say, Arrow, tell them that you
• 2:47:16
  don't know my wife. You should say I don't know.
• 2:47:19
  I've never seen Q with this guy. Hey, I should I should go and
• 2:47:21
  watch the new Michael Jackson movie with him.
• 2:47:23
  I think that would be good. Well, anyways, when we come
• 2:47:25
  back, we got a lot more. We got Tic Tac, no Nuggets,
• 2:47:29
  Trail the wolves 3:00 to 1:00. We'll get into that.
• 2:47:32
  Save your tears. And what's that smile?
• 2:47:35
  I got to go. We'll go into a sports minute
• 2:47:37
  this. Is a New York sports loudmouth
• 2:47:42
  sports minute. All right, guys, Aaron Fisherman
• 2:47:48
  back with you for another sportsman.
• 2:47:49
  A couple more stories, then we'll go through the scores.
• 2:47:51
  Tonight we got new NBC football studio analyst Mike Tomlin
• 2:47:57
  speaking for the first time, stepping that stepping down as
• 2:48:00
  the head coach of the Steelers this offseason after 19 seasons
• 2:48:03
  on the sidelines. After he spoke with Maria
• 2:48:06
  Taylor, Tomlin explained the lack of playoff success was
• 2:48:09
  wearing on him and that his veterans quote on quote were
• 2:48:12
  worthy of the excitement and optimism associated with new
• 2:48:15
  leadership, he continues. Probably not an overnight
• 2:48:18
  decision, but it's probably not something that I could
• 2:48:20
  articulate or share with people. There is a loneliness with
• 2:48:23
  leadership. I just thought that it was a
• 2:48:25
  good time for me personally, and by that I mean just where I am
• 2:48:29
  in life. And I thought it was a good time
• 2:48:31
  for the organization. To be quite honest with you.
• 2:48:33
  We didn't have a lot of success in the playoffs in recent years.
• 2:48:37
  The Steelers last playoff one was actually back in 2016.
• 2:48:39
  Ten years ago, Tomlin was officially announced as an
• 2:48:43
  analyst for the travelling studio show for Football Night
• 2:48:46
  in America on Sunday nights this season.
• 2:48:48
  Tomlin explained that he was thrilled to stay connected with
• 2:48:50
  the game and talk football with other lovers and fanatics of the
• 2:48:53
  game. Tomlin also dropped some insider
• 2:48:55
  information about his former team as he stated he believes
• 2:48:58
  Aaron Rodgers will be the quarterback next season.
• 2:49:01
  I just think Aaron, I just think being around him for the 12
• 2:49:05
  months I'm around him, he's got a love affair with the game of
• 2:49:07
  football. And not only the game, but the
• 2:49:09
  process, the informal moments, the development of younger guys,
• 2:49:13
  the interaction with teammates. I think he has an addiction to
• 2:49:15
  that and there's only one way to feed it.
• 2:49:18
  And certainly he is capable and in really good shape.
• 2:49:20
  And so I think at the end of the day, he'll play football next
• 2:49:24
  year. Under Rogers Old Green Bay coach
• 2:49:25
  Mike McCarthy, the Steelers will try to break the decade long
• 2:49:29
  playoff drive spell despite the fact Tomlin never had a losing
• 2:49:33
  season in any of his 19 years with the team.
• 2:49:37
  Rumors out of the NBA league office circles Monday state that
• 2:49:41
  the impending rule changes coming to the league to combat
• 2:49:44
  tanking will also likely impact the NBA draft lottery process.
• 2:49:48
  According to The Athletic, Sam and Mick, the heavy front runner
• 2:49:51
  amongst the three options the league is deliberating, would
• 2:49:54
  look as follows. 18 teams would be part of the draft lottery,
• 2:49:59
  which is different than the current 14, and the bottom 10
• 2:50:02
  teams would all have an 8% chance of landing the number one
• 2:50:06
  pick, the remaining odds? 20% in all would then be divided
• 2:50:11
  amongst the remaining 8 teams. In the current system, the
• 2:50:14
  bottom three teams all of a 14% chance of landing number one
• 2:50:17
  pick and the odds decline from there.
• 2:50:19
  While this is the favorite, there are still some issues
• 2:50:21
  related to the playing tournament where a team
• 2:50:23
  theoretically in this system can make the playoffs by winning
• 2:50:26
  their playing games and also win the draft lottery.
• 2:50:29
  All appears their proposals still have some kinks to work
• 2:50:31
  out. NBA Commissioner Adam Silver
• 2:50:33
  seems determined to finally end the tanking circus that has
• 2:50:36
  plagued the NBA in recent years, especially down the final
• 2:50:39
  stretch of the season. You should assume for next
• 2:50:42
  season your only incentive will be to win games, a Silver told
• 2:50:47
  league ownership in a league wide call earlier this month,
• 2:50:49
  which Silver said had gotten contentious regardless of
• 2:50:53
  ownership complaints. While it will be hard to end
• 2:50:55
  tanking completely, it appears Silver is determined to
• 2:50:58
  disincentivize losing in a league where the opposite is
• 2:51:01
  true has been true for teams not in contention for quite a while.

  special guest. We were talking to a little bit
• 2:53:18
  earlier in the show to New York Post baseball writer Ken
• 2:53:21
  Davidoff. We went back and forth.
• 2:53:23
  It was fun, energetic. You know, I'd have to say that
• 2:53:29
  it was a home run, as I would say, Speedy, would you not say I
• 2:53:32
  would agree? And I didn't strike out and I
• 2:53:35
  didn't throw any balls. So basically, you weren't the
• 2:53:37
  New York Mets. I wasn't the New York Mets,
• 2:53:39
  exactly. Wow, speedy wow.
• 2:53:42
  We're just helping you. I can rub it in on my own team
• 2:53:44
  once in a while. Oh, right, ladies and gentlemen,
• 2:53:47
  we call this Tic Tac. No tic.
• 2:53:50
  Tac. Morris right in the butt.
• 2:53:55
  We get the prizes cheap because they're stolen.
• 2:53:58
  Hey, no. Hey, no, no, no.
• 2:54:06
  No, no, anyone freaking daily. Speedy, you took over this show
• 2:54:13
  tonight. That was at my birthday last
• 2:54:15
  year and we're doing it again this year.
• 2:54:17
  Hey, I can't wait to see the updated speedy you want to come.
• 2:54:22
  To you want to come to eastern Connecticut.
• 2:54:24
  Q. Go bowl, I'll put FaceTime in.
• 2:54:30
  That was really a good one. This was shot with I believe my
• 2:54:33
  camera phone. So Speedy lay it on us for tic
• 2:54:37
  tac. No, we can get the interns in if
• 2:54:39
  they want to come in. Looks like we had Dom backstage.
• 2:54:41
  Nathan. You can jump in if you got any
• 2:54:43
  pearls of wisdom to add as well. Live from the jail cell after he
• 2:54:49
  smuggled some endangered animal. That is also true.
• 2:54:53
  Java can indeed true himself. Beneficial NFL draft version of
• 2:54:59
  Tic Tac No speedy. All right, so we'll start with
• 2:55:02
  this one. So there's 2 picks ever that are
• 2:55:04
  tied for the most Hall of Farmers produced, one of which
• 2:55:07
  is the number one overall pick, and the number one of them is
• 2:55:10
  the number four overall picks. So two of the number four
• 2:55:13
  overall picks were some of the best pass rushers ever that had
• 2:55:16
  both 125 sacks in their career. So name the two.
• 2:55:20
  Name two of the two players. What school?
• 2:55:23
  Purdue. Number four overall pick.
• 2:55:25
  There were Hall of Fame pass rushers over 125 sacks in their
• 2:55:28
  career. You didn't say the school 4.
• 2:55:31
  Picks no two different guys. Number four overall pick.
• 2:55:34
  That were taken 4th. I'm trying to get him to say it.
• 2:55:37
  It's easy. We need clues.
• 2:55:40
  There's there's easier ways to get it out of Speedy.
• 2:55:42
  We'll get it from him. Whoa.
• 2:55:45
  It's. Speedy, you got to tell me.
• 2:55:48
  You got to tell me this is modern era or like forever ago.
• 2:55:52
  Go scuba diving. Forever ago 125 seconds pain.
• 2:55:56
  It was, it was within, it was post murder.
• 2:56:00
  I'll say that. That's a good flavor.
• 2:56:03
  OK. You're not dealing with Deacon
• 2:56:05
  Joe. It's, as you're thinking, fresh.
• 2:56:07
  Yeah, because the word jizz is really structured A. 125 sacks?
• 2:56:12
  Yep, both for the number four pick.
• 2:56:14
  Yep, with devolution. Hey guys, you guys got 2 guesses
• 2:56:18
  each because you have Good for you.
• 2:56:19
  Is it DD line right? I'm not licking anyone.
• 2:56:23
  Could I guess it could be a linebacker, but it.
• 2:56:25
  Probably rushes. They're both edge rushers.
• 2:56:27
  Edge rushers, edge rusher. All right, so there we go.
• 2:56:30
  We got edge rushers from after the merger.
• 2:56:34
  Oh my God. 4th overall pick. First round, 4th pick. 4th
• 2:56:40
  overall pick in their respective.
• 2:56:43
  Tracks 90. 9% of the World War. 2.
• 2:56:49
  He didn't. He didn't say what school.
• 2:56:50
  No, I. Didn't say what school.
• 2:56:52
  I never heard of the skin flu. There's two different guys.
• 2:56:56
  All right, I'll, I'll guess I'm going to say.
• 2:57:03
  I don't care. It ain't Deacon, don't know
• 2:57:07
  that. What pic?
• 2:57:09
  What pic was Reggie White? Reggie White.
• 2:57:11
  Reggie White is one of them. Yep.
• 2:57:13
  Oh wow. I was going to say Reggie,
• 2:57:15
  right, but I was like, I didn't. I can't think about whether he
• 2:57:18
  was the 4th pick or not. All right, that's one.
• 2:57:21
  So I got one of them memory erase, now we just got to get
• 2:57:24
  the other. It's got to be for Pittsburgh.
• 2:57:28
  No more. Legitimate than.
• 2:57:29
  What do you mean? Joe Green say.
• 2:57:32
  That again. Oh, is it joke?
• 2:57:35
  No, I'm not. I get 2 guesses though, right?
• 2:57:37
  Yeah. You get 2 Guess I didn't hear
• 2:57:38
  your first guess. No, I didn't even guess.
• 2:57:40
  I was just telling him who it was, he said.
• 2:57:42
  Pittsburgh, I'm a go. East 1/4.
• 2:57:47
  Pick There's a lot of guys that got sets that ain't let me go.
• 2:57:53
  Random Kalia Mack No. He trims or not.
• 2:57:59
  All right, well, Mack was the 5th pick.
• 2:58:02
  Oh, OK, just wait. Good guess.
• 2:58:07
  He can clean themselves. I mean thank 4.
• 2:58:13
  No. Would.
• 2:58:14
  Jared Allen, be one. No.
• 2:58:15
  He was a late first round pick. Good guess though.
• 2:58:19
  He did. He had 100. 4 big does anyone?
• 2:58:21
  I just. I think speeding gives it away.
• 2:58:25
  What did? He say what was the clue that he
• 2:58:31
  gave? I can.
• 2:58:36
  Do all right. This is my last guess because I
• 2:58:37
  already guessed 1. Kevin Green.
• 2:58:40
  Now. I don't know, this is crazy.
• 2:58:48
  Terrell Sugs. Nope.
• 2:58:50
  I was thinking of him too. I thought he was like 11th pick
• 2:58:52
  or something. Dom and Nathan, you got to guess
• 2:58:56
  if you're going to play. Hold on Dom guess 1 already.
• 2:59:00
  Nathan can wait. Just just just name a pass
• 2:59:03
  rusher. A cross sexual action of cream
• 2:59:05
  on somebody's face. Yeah, I'm going to say Aaron
• 2:59:08
  Donald, but that's not. Oh, he's a first round talent.
• 2:59:11
  Rusher Edge rusher. Nothing Edge rusher.
• 2:59:16
  John Abraham? Nope, just he was a first round.
• 2:59:24
  Just guess I'm. Out, I got one more.
• 2:59:26
  What do you think? You text me if you think you
• 2:59:29
  know somebody. You got another gas right now?
• 2:59:36
  Do you have anybody else in mind?
• 2:59:38
  I can't. I don't.
• 2:59:40
  Know what PJ was or I can't think of what.
• 2:59:45
  Let's put the clock on. I got the clock we could put on
• 2:59:47
  right here. We got 60 seconds.
• 2:59:49
  I was going to say, DeMarcus, where?
• 2:59:51
  No, it doesn't matter what. It is.
• 2:59:53
  That's not a bad guess, Nathan. Von Miller No, No.
• 2:59:58
  It was #2 last. 1. Yeah, let's go.
• 3:00:03
  Four overall. Let's go.
• 3:00:06
  I'm not encouraging 1 hairstyle. About, I don't know, I can't
• 3:00:15
  think of the 4th. It's the fourth pick.
• 3:00:17
  I don't think shit. Let me, I gave up a booty there.
• 3:00:24
  Yeah, all the guys are thinking about that for jackets.
• 3:00:26
  Let me I've got 20 seconds. I've got a name I'm thinking of.
• 3:00:33
  Use it. Use my pick.
• 3:00:36
  John Rain. Not a defensive tackle.
• 3:00:43
  It's a edge rusher prototype. Go roll.
• 3:00:46
  Oh, I was. I forgot I was so see edge
• 3:00:47
  rusher speedy, you got it. What is?
• 3:00:50
  It so fish you were close on the right era.
• 3:00:52
  It was Derek Thomas. Derek All right, let's put this
• 3:00:57
  on the board. Speedy, You want the middle?
• 3:00:59
  Oh yeah. Drove Mercedes.
• 3:01:00
  Oh yeah. Let's pick up the pace.
• 3:01:04
  All right, so we'll go to. We'll.
• 3:01:07
  Go to this one. All right, So what college had
• 3:01:10
  the most players drafted in a single draft in the seven round
• 3:01:13
  era with 15? What was the question?
• 3:01:15
  What are? These questions what college had
• 3:01:17
  the most player drafted in a single.
• 3:01:19
  Draft in the. Seven round era with 15.
• 3:01:22
  No, this is just one because it's only one school you need.
• 3:01:25
  Yeah, Speedy, let's stick to the one guess question.
• 3:01:27
  So we don't play this for 45. Minutes.
• 3:01:29
  All right, I'm gonna guess what do you got, Alabama?
• 3:01:31
  Nope. Nope, that's too obvious.
• 3:01:34
  It would never be Alabama. Say the say the question one
• 3:01:36
  more time. What?
• 3:01:37
  College had the most players drafted in a single draft in the
• 3:01:41
  seven round era with 15. Notre Dame.
• 3:01:45
  Nope. Notre Dame was third on the
• 3:01:47
  list, though. Ohio C.
• 3:01:49
  Nope. Georgia.
• 3:01:51
  Georgia is correct. Wow, 15 players drafted in 2022.
• 3:01:57
  No cheating. That was not cheating.
• 3:01:59
  That was going to be my first guest from that 2020.
• 3:02:01
  Two team time he don't get it he claimed somebody cheated you
• 3:02:04
  just. Say.
• 3:02:05
  You're dude, I'm just guessing. I'm not even sitting here trying
• 3:02:07
  to think I want this. I want this over.
• 3:02:09
  Ariel had plenty of accusations of.
• 3:02:11
  Just I want this over. I say to you dude, I honestly,
• 3:02:16
  if you if you know the show tic tac no is not something that I
• 3:02:19
  give a crap about, just so you know.
• 3:02:21
  You should. I don't entertain.
• 3:02:22
  Yeah. What do you want me to do?
• 3:02:24
  Dance around and have my thumb. On my ass I've called baby.
• 3:02:27
  Care. No thanks.
• 3:02:27
  I I I'm fine where I am right now.
• 3:02:30
  I'll call him after I put it in my ass, I'll put it in my mouth.
• 3:02:34
  Gaga goo. Goo.
• 3:02:36
  Yeah, BBB, let's get through the game a little faster.
• 3:02:41
  All right, so we'll go to this one.
• 3:02:42
  What Penn State running back was the last number one overall
• 3:02:45
  clock is wrong. That wasn't a quarterback,
• 3:02:47
  offensive tackle or defensive end did.
• 3:02:51
  They say what? He was two?
• 3:02:52
  What? Penn State running back was the
• 3:02:54
  last number one overall pick that wasn't a quarterback, an
• 3:02:57
  addresser or an offensive. Election I think.
• 3:02:59
  Why was 2? You said running back.
• 3:03:01
  Running back, yes. Yeah.
• 3:03:02
  Well, of course he's not an offensive lineman or attack or
• 3:03:07
  you just said he's a running back.
• 3:03:08
  You don't have to tell me all the rest of that.
• 3:03:10
  He was saying, yeah, he played it.
• 3:03:12
  Yeah. Wasn't Kijana Carter taken first
• 3:03:15
  overall? Yeah, Bring.
• 3:03:18
  It coming through baby. I don't need no Internet, Errol.
• 3:03:21
  Yeah, Errol. Checks with that was straight
• 3:03:25
  off the Dome. Bad.
• 3:03:26
  Just stick a. Finger in his ass.
• 3:03:30
  All right, let's go. He.
• 3:03:33
  Has cool fun. Right here.
• 3:03:37
  Yeah. Go there.
• 3:03:37
  Go there, Yeah. You want to eat his balls or
• 3:03:39
  something? What is up with you, Anita?
• 3:03:42
  Go. Spit balls at the wall.
• 3:03:44
  Hopefully they stick. This is what happens when he's
• 3:03:49
  off his game. Yeah.
• 3:03:52
  All right, Speedy, I'm about to sweep.
• 3:03:54
  Monstrous. All right, so there have been
• 3:03:56
  only 5 tight ends that ever that were drafted in the top of 10
• 3:04:00
  and two of them were drafted by the same team.
• 3:04:03
  Not in the same draft obviously, but the same team.
• 3:04:06
  Name the NFC team that did that. What was San Francisco?
• 3:04:09
  So no, and San Francisco was incorrect.
• 3:04:11
  So there were five tight ends that were ever drawn back in the
• 3:04:14
  top 10. So two of them were by the same
• 3:04:16
  team in different drafts. There's an NFC team, not the
• 3:04:19
  49ers. Q was wrong.
• 3:04:20
  They did draft 1 Vernon Davis, but not.
• 3:04:22
  Draft. 2. So name this NFC team.
• 3:04:26
  Can I name both of them as well? Because it's the Cleveland.
• 3:04:28
  Oh no, it's not. You said NFC, so that means
• 3:04:32
  Kellen Winslow didn't go as high as I thought he did.
• 3:04:35
  Kelly Wentzel No, he was one of them, but he again.
• 3:04:37
  It's loose. It wasn't and.
• 3:04:39
  He busted. Everything out.
• 3:04:41
  Oh, that's right, 2. Of them were by the same team,
• 3:04:44
  no joker. Joker was drafted by the Lions,
• 3:04:46
  that's why. Monstrous.
• 3:04:47
  No, Joker wasn't a top ten tech. He wasn't.
• 3:04:50
  No, he was. He was.
• 3:04:51
  He was after Engram. I think he was a couple picks
• 3:04:53
  after Engram. OK, OK.
• 3:04:55
  So that's why I was wrong. All right?
• 3:04:56
  I didn't make my guess. NFC team.
• 3:04:58
  I know Kyle Pitts went to the Falcons and I know he was
• 3:05:01
  drafted high. I got to say Falcons is one of
• 3:05:02
  them, that is. Not OK.
• 3:05:04
  Minnesota. It's.
• 3:05:08
  Not Minnesota soccer. So new crusher nith get it nith
• 3:05:10
  Chicago. Bears, Molly, and it's not the
• 3:05:14
  new. Errol win it for us, the Eagles
• 3:05:17
  and. It's not the.
• 3:05:18
  Eagles. I.
• 3:05:20
  Told you that. Shuck.
• 3:05:21
  Your luck, you guys were close to Nathan and Don were close on
• 3:05:24
  the NFC North, but it was the Lions, TJ Hawkinson and Eric
• 3:05:27
  Ebron. You got to put your tongue.
• 3:05:29
  On some Ebron, that's who I was thinking of.
• 3:05:32
  I wanted to. He wasn't good.
• 3:05:34
  All right. Speedy blocked us.
• 3:05:37
  Let's get it back up there. So speed is going to.
• 3:05:39
  Take this one. We got to stop him on this one
• 3:05:41
  or else he's going to win. So spread his team.
• 3:05:43
  Speedy. Next question.
• 3:05:45
  All right, we'll go to this one. So name one of the active three
• 3:05:48
  active coaches that were undrafted free agents in the
• 3:05:51
  late 80s. What?
• 3:05:56
  When they were players, they were undrafted free agents in
• 3:05:59
  the late 80s. One of them was an 86, two of
• 3:06:01
  them was an 87, and they are active NFL coaches.
• 3:06:05
  That is a ridiculous question. Do.
• 3:06:08
  Spreading that, let's. See.
• 3:06:11
  All right, there's three coaches now that.
• 3:06:14
  Was undressed. No, Molly, there's. 3.
• 3:06:19
  Coaches that are playing today that like Molly.
• 3:06:21
  No, that are coaching today they were playing.
• 3:06:23
  You want to eat? His balls or something?
• 3:06:27
  Andy. Head coaches.
• 3:06:28
  Current head coaches? Yes, there's three current head
• 3:06:30
  coaches. Andy Reid.
• 3:06:36
  Nope. What was the question?
• 3:06:38
  So name one of the three current head coaches that were undrafted
• 3:06:42
  free agents in the late 80s. One of them was in 86.
• 3:06:44
  Two of them was in 87. Let's talk with me.
• 3:06:49
  All right, let's do the math. So that means if they were 20
• 3:06:52
  years old, 22 years old in 86, that would make it 1964.
• 3:06:56
  That means they would have to be 60 something years old.
• 3:06:58
  So it's only one of the the older coaches in the has to be,
• 3:07:02
  has to be in their mid, probably mid 60's, the oldest coaches.
• 3:07:06
  Who are the oldest coaches? That'll be Andy Reid and.
• 3:07:10
  You already said him. Pete Carroll's gone.
• 3:07:14
  Bulls, Bulls. Is 1.
• 3:07:16
  Yep, very. Good, hey.
• 3:07:19
  There you go. That's the block right there.
• 3:07:23
  All right, let's get it back up, Errol, for the block.
• 3:07:26
  That's good, good. Right there.
• 3:07:27
  We got to keep it going. Speedy.
• 3:07:30
  Who? Ram Jam all these prostitutes.
• 3:07:35
  Oh. God, All right, all right,
• 3:07:36
  Speedy. We'll say we'll go to The Jets
• 3:07:38
  now, so name the two players have spent most of their career
• 3:07:41
  with The Jets that were hall of farmers that were not first
• 3:07:44
  round picks. It was Hall of Famers that are
• 3:07:48
  not first. Round Kleco.
• 3:07:49
  Kleco is 1. Yep, they're.
• 3:07:51
  Cool their whole career. Most of their career was with
• 3:07:57
  The Jets, so this other one was not drafted by The Jets, but
• 3:07:59
  they spent most of their career with The Jets.
• 3:08:02
  And a Hall of Fame career. Kevin Mwai no drafted so it
• 3:08:10
  wouldn't be him because Reevus was drafted there.
• 3:08:18
  Who else is that? That guy we each get 2 guesses.
• 3:08:32
  Yep. Yeah.
• 3:08:33
  OK, so I got. One more was he wasn't drafted,
• 3:08:37
  you said. He was not drafted by The Jets,
• 3:08:39
  but he spent most of his career with The Jets.
• 3:08:41
  All right. Curtis Martin, right?
• 3:08:45
  He's in the Hall of Hall of Fame, right?
• 3:08:47
  Sweetie, are you in the Hall of Fame?
• 3:08:48
  Yeah. And not a first round pick, you
• 3:08:50
  said. Not a first round pick.
• 3:08:52
  OK, that's important. Wait, a jet that made the Hall
• 3:08:57
  of Fame? They're.
• 3:08:59
  Playing something like 4. So Joe, That's right, Joe.
• 3:09:02
  Name it Darrell Reevis Keko and he was drafted by The Jets
• 3:09:09
  though. Curtis Martin.
• 3:09:10
  Yes, it is Curtis Martin. Very good.
• 3:09:14
  There we go. Yeah.
• 3:09:16
  Hey, that many of us now, Chris. Martin wasn't a first round, he
• 3:09:19
  wasn't a first round. He.
• 3:09:20
  Was a third round pick of the Patriots in 1990. 5.
• 3:09:23
  Go suck on an egg and and. All right, so Q, you got this
• 3:09:27
  one. Let's bring it back up.
• 3:09:30
  Can't wait. Where do you want to go?
• 3:09:37
  If we go here, we got a two way. Go on.
• 3:09:39
  Speed. Yeah, let's go there.
• 3:09:40
  All right. Let's do it all right, speedy,
• 3:09:43
  just price time. All right, so we'll go back to
• 3:09:45
  the active coaches. So the two active coaches that
• 3:09:48
  were first round picks. First round picks first round.
• 3:09:52
  Picks. That was first round picks.
• 3:09:54
  Oh. Man.
• 3:09:57
  Aaron Glenn. Aaron Glenn has one.
• 3:09:59
  OK, Yeah. This makes my pecker.
• 3:10:01
  By the way, I got, I got I just so you knew fish, I got half of
• 3:10:05
  that question right, just just so you know.
• 3:10:08
  We don't know. Jerry Campbell was in the first
• 3:10:12
  round. Get the other half and impressed
• 3:10:13
  me. I don't need to impress you,
• 3:10:15
  man. I'm sitting here just listening.
• 3:10:17
  Jim Harbaugh Yeah, that was my guess too, Jim.
• 3:10:21
  Harbaugh Yes. Nice.
• 3:10:22
  Yeah, I got. To go back.
• 3:10:24
  There you go, Dom. That's awesome, Dom.
• 3:10:27
  So that's AW, right. There, I got to go back off now.
• 3:10:32
  Let's get it up on the screen. Dom will give you the the big
• 3:10:36
  the NITH Award to finish it off. There it is.
• 3:10:42
  Congrats, let's draw the line. Breaking news, smell my ass.
• 3:10:49
  Speedy, we've defeated you once again.
• 3:10:51
  Breaking news. Bake a hole, speedy Breaking
• 3:10:55
  news I farted. We win.
• 3:10:56
  Breaking news. Stop here come old arrow.
• 3:10:59
  That's a. Tough fart breaking news.
• 3:11:02
  I'm putting you on a leash now. You're like a broken robot.
• 3:11:05
  Yeah, he's a try. Breaking news.
• 3:11:10
  I need a genuine tonic. Take a sit in that segue fish.
• 3:11:14
  Let's do it basketball. I'll give you a Oh yeah, I'll
• 3:11:18
  give you a segue. You'll be quiet over there in
• 3:11:20
  the corner, All right? The Timberwolves blew out the
• 3:11:24
  Nuggets in game four of their playoff series 112 to 96 to take
• 3:11:30
  a three one lead in their series.
• 3:11:33
  Despite the win, the Timberwolves got bad luck with
• 3:11:36
  injuries as Dante Divicenzo will be out for the season after
• 3:11:41
  suffering a non contact torn Achilles.
• 3:11:44
  Anthony Edwards also suffered A hyperextension and a bone bruise
• 3:11:50
  in his left knee and is expected to miss at least two weeks
• 3:11:54
  despite avoiding any ligament damage in his knee.
• 3:11:59
  There was also controversial or controversy with after
• 3:12:03
  Timberwolves guard JD McDaniels. That sounds like you know Xavier
• 3:12:07
  McDaniels but not relation made a layup with 1.3 seconds left in
• 3:12:13
  in a situation when the Nuggets were letting them run out the
• 3:12:17
  clock and the game. This led to Nicola Yokich going
• 3:12:21
  after McDaniels believed that he broke the unwritten rules of
• 3:12:27
  basketball by making that shot. Both Yokich and Julius Randall
• 3:12:33
  were were ejected from the game following that altercation, and
• 3:12:38
  several other players were involved in the scruffle or
• 3:12:42
  scuffle, including several players leaving their benches.
• 3:12:46
  According to the NBA rules, any players that leave their bench
• 3:12:49
  areas during the altercation are at risk of being suspended for
• 3:12:54
  the next game. Yokich and Randall were in the
• 3:12:57
  game at the time of this incident, so they won't be
• 3:13:02
  suspended. But other players like Naz Reed,
• 3:13:06
  Rudy Gobert and Aaron Gordon still could be suspended.
• 3:13:11
  Now, there is an unwritten rule. It's it's been around for a
• 3:13:16
  long, long time in the NBA. And Yokich is absolutely right
• 3:13:20
  about that. But guess what?
• 3:13:23
  I remember this happening with the New York Knicks years and
• 3:13:26
  years and years ago in the late 90s when the Knicks played
• 3:13:31
  Miami. And if you remember it, you
• 3:13:34
  remember it really, really well. And it screwed the Knicks.
• 3:13:36
  It really did. We, if you remember Jeff Van
• 3:13:40
  Gundy getting on Alonzo Mourning's leg and hanging on
• 3:13:43
  Alonzo Mourning's leg, it really screwed the Knicks in that
• 3:13:47
  series. And again, going back to this
• 3:13:51
  particular situation, as long as Nicola Yokich is not going to be
• 3:13:55
  suspended, which she's not, it doesn't, it really doesn't make
• 3:13:58
  a difference. I think losing Anthony Edwards
• 3:14:02
  and losing Dante Divicenzo in this series is an absolute big
• 3:14:06
  loss. I don't care if they won the
• 3:14:07
  game against the Nuggets and the Nuggets have been are down 31.
• 3:14:10
  They've been down three and one in the playoffs twice, and
• 3:14:12
  they've come back and won. This is a team that's done it
• 3:14:15
  before. So to say that, Oh my God, it's
• 3:14:18
  over. It's not.
• 3:14:20
  You have the best player in the world on your roster.
• 3:14:23
  And yes, you could say whatever you want, who you know who it
• 3:14:26
  is, He's the best player in the world.
• 3:14:28
  Everybody and their mother knows he's the best player in the
• 3:14:31
  world. You can cut, you could try to
• 3:14:32
  argue it all you want. There is no argument.
• 3:14:35
  How many guys back-to-back, If you look at what he's done in
• 3:14:38
  his career, think about it 2 back-to-back years with a triple
• 3:14:42
  double big man. And I'll go back to the guys
• 3:14:45
  that have won the MVP and, and, and this guy's been screwed not
• 3:14:48
  once, but twice because he's going to be screwed again this
• 3:14:50
  year. This guy is the best player in
• 3:14:54
  the world. I don't think it's an argument.
• 3:14:55
  He fights for his team. He fights for the players.
• 3:14:58
  He stands up and you, you can laugh all you want.
• 3:15:00
  You can giggle all you want. You're wrong.
• 3:15:02
  That's fighting for your team right now.
• 3:15:03
  That's absolutely. You do not go up for a layup at
• 3:15:07
  the end of the game when you know you're running out the
• 3:15:08
  clock. You don't do it.
• 3:15:10
  Why not? It's an unwritten rule.
• 3:15:12
  Everybody knows it. Nobody does it.
• 3:15:14
  Nobody does it. Nobody does it.
• 3:15:17
  Unwritten. Nobody does.
• 3:15:19
  It if it's not a. Rule unwritten.
• 3:15:21
  Nobody does it. You, you don't do something like
• 3:15:24
  that when you know the game is over.
• 3:15:26
  You don't do it. And what Yokich did, he had
• 3:15:28
  every right to do it. And I think the NBA will look at
• 3:15:30
  it and say, yeah, you had every right to do it.
• 3:15:32
  You don't go up and lay up. The game is over.
• 3:15:34
  It's a blowout. They lost by like 7 or 8 points.
• 3:15:38
  And you can shake your head and laugh.
• 3:15:39
  I'm going to tell you this right now.
• 3:15:41
  I'll put money on it right now. The Nuggets win the series.
• 3:15:43
  Please put me. On Let's go, let's go, let's go,
• 3:15:47
  let's go. Put your money where your mouth
• 3:15:49
  is because I'm going to tell you right now, the Timberwolves are
• 3:15:51
  winning the series. They're winning it.
• 3:15:53
  It's over. It's over.
• 3:15:55
  Losing Anthony Edwards in the series and Dante Tivochenzo has
• 3:15:58
  been a big factor in this series, especially getting 3
• 3:16:01
  point shots, important three-point shots in his.
• 3:16:03
  You can put your money where your mouth is.
• 3:16:05
  I will, I'm telling. You the series is over.
• 3:16:08
  Guess who did play? Series is over.
• 3:16:10
  The second-half and the second. Half over.
• 3:16:12
  And they still won, but they're. Series is over.
• 3:16:15
  You're going to watch this series slowly but surely be lost
• 3:16:19
  by the Timberwolves. This is nothing new to the
• 3:16:21
  Nuggets. Nothing.
• 3:16:23
  And I you could no, They've done it twice.
• 3:16:27
  They've done it twice. They've done it twice.
• 3:16:29
  Yep. I.
• 3:16:30
  Guess who? Speedy, could you have the team?
• 3:16:32
  Clippers and the Utah Jazz. There you go Twice.
• 3:16:35
  So and. And by the way, guess who is the
• 3:16:38
  best player in the world? And he was a part of that.
• 3:16:40
  Yeah, Nicole. By the way, guess who The coach
• 3:16:42
  of the LA Clippers. Was and go look.
• 3:16:44
  And by the way, and by the way, just so everybody knows.
• 3:16:46
  Oh, yeah. Doc Rivers.
• 3:16:48
  Exactly. You're a Hall of Famer.
• 3:16:49
  That's that's right. He is a Hall of Famer.
• 3:16:51
  Yeah, what drugs are you on anyways?
• 3:16:53
  Yeah, he's the Hall of Fame of shame.
• 3:16:55
  That's what he is anyways. I, I think when you look at this
• 3:16:59
  series, it, it's pretty simple. You can go up and down and you
• 3:17:02
  can look at what they did in game #4 and you want to sit here
• 3:17:05
  and celebrate the opportunity they had to win the game.
• 3:17:09
  And Nicole Yokich had a chance. And I'll, I'll give Rudy Gobert
• 3:17:11
  a chance. Rudy Gobert has played well, but
• 3:17:14
  I I Rudy Gobert disappears. The best player in the world.
• 3:17:19
  So you're going to tell me right now Rudy Gobert has stopped
• 3:17:23
  Nicole Yokich? I'm telling.
• 3:17:24
  You right here, right? Now I'm telling you right now,
• 3:17:26
  you are obviously not watching this series.
• 3:17:29
  He's winning 3 to 1 because the other players aren't playing
• 3:17:32
  well. You're not watching the game.
• 3:17:35
  You're not watching the game. The best player in the world.
• 3:17:37
  You're not watching. You need it.
• 3:17:39
  First of all, you need other players to play, do you not?
• 3:17:41
  Jamal Murray has not played well in this series.
• 3:17:43
  Nobody. No secondary players.
• 3:17:45
  Are scored. He just went off the other.
• 3:17:47
  Night, That's great. That's great.
• 3:17:48
  He hasn't had a good series. He has not played well in this
• 3:17:52
  series or you're not watching this series.
• 3:17:54
  Yeah, I'm watching the game. That's what I'm just trying to
• 3:17:56
  tell you. You forgot that he actually
• 3:17:57
  played well in the game. He played well in one game
• 3:17:59
  series, one game out of four. No, he's not Jamal Murray.
• 3:18:03
  Had thirty word. He don't need nobody.
• 3:18:05
  Jamal Murray had 30 points, Nicola Yokich had 24.
• 3:18:08
  The next highest score on the Nuggets had 10, which Tim
• 3:18:10
  Hardaway junior. They're not getting enough often
• 3:18:13
  from the secondary players on. The you know who they need and
• 3:18:16
  they don't have tonight Game 5, which is about this quarter off
• 3:18:19
  about two minutes. No, it's it's Aaron Gordon's
• 3:18:22
  injured and Aaron Gordon's not playing.
• 3:18:24
  It's not going to make a difference.
• 3:18:26
  Aaron Gordon not playing all season has been was what made
• 3:18:30
  them not one of the top teams. You know, compared with the
• 3:18:33
  Thunder and the Spurs during. The year.
• 3:18:34
  I hope you watched the game tonight.
• 3:18:36
  It's going to be a blowout. About it.
• 3:18:37
  Yeah, right there. I'll bring you back to the
• 3:18:39
  beginning of the NBA season. But you were talking about the
• 3:18:42
  Nuggets might have, might not lose this year.
• 3:18:45
  Because you remember, they wasn't just the Thunder that
• 3:18:47
  were unstoppable at the beginning of the season, it was
• 3:18:49
  also the Nuggets. Then Aaron Gordon got hurt, and
• 3:18:52
  they were not the same team for most of the season until he got
• 3:18:55
  back. If he's hurt again, even without
• 3:18:57
  Ant and Dante, they're going to have trouble.
• 3:19:01
  I got to give you a guy, IO Dosenmoo.
• 3:19:03
  He got traced to the to the team.
• 3:19:05
  Because he scored. The deadlines because the Bulls
• 3:19:09
  are stupid. The Bulls are incredibly stupid.
• 3:19:12
  The Bulls are one of the dumbest franchises in the world.
• 3:19:15
  They got rid of him and Kobe White for next to nothing.
• 3:19:17
  And look at Dosenmoo in this game putting up a 43 spot.
• 3:19:21
  I'm going to tell you, I'm going to tell you this.
• 3:19:23
  He's not going to be, he's not going to be a factor in
• 3:19:26
  tonight's game. I can guarantee it.
• 3:19:28
  Guarantee it. Let's go.
• 3:19:29
  Guarantee it. You want to bet tonight?
• 3:19:31
  Let's go, let's go. I got the Nuggets.
• 3:19:32
  I got the Nuggets. I got the Nuggets.
• 3:19:34
  I got the Nuggets winning over 10.
• 3:19:36
  I got the Nuggets winning over 10 / 10 / 10 in this game
• 3:19:39
  tonight. And let's do 25 on that and then
• 3:19:42
  you say. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
• 3:19:44
  no. Put your money where your mouth.
• 3:19:45
  Is. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
• 3:19:49
  All right. I'm a bet 25 on that.
• 3:19:50
  That's what I'm saying all. Right.
• 3:19:51
  And what do you want to bet? What's the other?
• 3:19:53
  What's the other? Bet 25 that AOC is a is a impact
• 3:19:56
  player tonight. What's an impact player?
• 3:19:58
  Like what? What is an impact?
• 3:19:59
  Oh, anywhere with 12 and up, he's good.
• 3:20:01
  That's not impact. That's not impact.
• 3:20:03
  How about 25? How about 20?
• 3:20:05
  5. How about 25?
• 3:20:07
  How about 25? How about 25?
• 3:20:09
  How about 25? Put your money where your mouth.
• 3:20:10
  Is let me. Let me see what the odds say for
• 3:20:13
  him. What's his average?
• 3:20:14
  Yeah, let's go to the odds. What's his average though?
• 3:20:17
  Under. For it doesn't matter that if
• 3:20:19
  you say he's going. To make a difference, he's going
• 3:20:20
  to. Score 20 or more. 20 or more.
• 3:20:23
  All right. It says right now it's
• 3:20:24
  interesting you say that the prop is set at 20 1/2 points for
• 3:20:27
  tonight. Go ahead, bet on it.
• 3:20:29
  Over plus 102 so it's basically even money 20.5.
• 3:20:34
  That's a legit bet, right? Where?
• 3:20:35
  Did where did plan that? Denver.
• 3:20:37
  Yeah, in Denver. They're in Denver.
• 3:20:39
  They're in Denver. Yeah, it's not baseball where
• 3:20:41
  they go 232. They're gonna 20. .5 straight
• 3:20:44
  up. Oh. 20.5 points straight up,
• 3:20:48
  Errol's saying. Under Under.
• 3:20:50
  Will you take the over on Ayo Dosanmu?
• 3:20:52
  You see him? Yeah, going over.
• 3:20:57
  OK, well, hey, you heard it here first.
• 3:21:00
  He's going to lose. He's going to.
• 3:21:01
  Lose what I want him to do. It's going to be this is going
• 3:21:03
  to be an absolute torture. This is going to be a torture
• 3:21:06
  rack tonight. Just so for everybody know I.
• 3:21:07
  Don't know why you. It's going to be a torture rack
• 3:21:10
  tonight. I guarantee you the Nuggets.
• 3:21:11
  Are going to. Destroy them.
• 3:21:13
  They're going to destroy them. They're going to destroy him
• 3:21:15
  today. Now they keep now three there
• 3:21:17
  now, all right. You'll see, you'll see.
• 3:21:19
  Daniel and Dash Reed with Definitely Hammer Business.
• 3:21:23
  Okay, if Gordon is heard, that is definitely a good match up.
• 3:21:25
  Q. Thank you.
• 3:21:27
  You don't watch the games. He's a highlight.
• 3:21:29
  Okay, I don't watch the games. You obviously don't know me.
• 3:21:32
  I watch all the games. Is the best pair of the league
• 3:21:34
  and he can't even get MP voters. You're out of your mind, you're
• 3:21:39
  out of your mind if you don't think he's the MVP To me, it's
• 3:21:43
  all about to me, the NBA does whatever the hell they want
• 3:21:46
  because if this guy, if you're looking at Nicole yokes and not
• 3:21:48
  saying that he's a triple double machine and he shouldn't be the
• 3:21:51
  MVP if he doesn't, if he's not on this team, this team doesn't
• 3:21:54
  even they're not even close to a playoff team.
• 3:21:56
  If GSA, if GSA is not on that team, they're absolutely a top
• 3:22:01
  five team. So you're going to see your Most
• 3:22:03
  Valuable Player. That's what I'm going to tell
• 3:22:06
  you. That's what I'm selling.
• 3:22:07
  The Most Valuable Player to his team is no other than Nicole
• 3:22:11
  Yokich. So you can throw out and say
• 3:22:13
  whatever you want and complain and dance around the freaking
• 3:22:16
  subject. The subject is you lose.
• 3:22:18
  I win because everybody will agree with me.
• 3:22:21
  Nicole Yokich is the MVP of the NBA.
• 3:22:24
  It's not even an argument. I don't.
• 3:22:26
  Just say. He is the best player in the
• 3:22:30
  NBA. It's not even an argument.
• 3:22:33
  Well, you interpret most valuable players as the most
• 3:22:36
  irreplaceable player on it in the league.
• 3:22:39
  It's the Most Valuable Player. Most off of off of the Nuggets.
• 3:22:43
  They stink. He can't be replaced.
• 3:22:46
  The most? Something but that's not what
• 3:22:48
  the league's doing recently. They're just giving it to the
• 3:22:50
  top player on the top team who's got the best stats.
• 3:22:53
  It's. Built that way.
• 3:22:54
  And and by the way, you. Have by the way.
• 3:22:56
  GSA does not have the best stats.
• 3:22:59
  Nicola Yokich does. Nicola Yokich does in.
• 3:23:02
  The. League Nicola Yokich Nicola
• 3:23:05
  Yokich is the best player in the league because he has has the
• 3:23:08
  best stats in the league. He's.
• 3:23:10
  Not even. And he's not even.
• 3:23:11
  One team? That's debatable.
• 3:23:13
  You know, it's not debatable. It's not just.
• 3:23:15
  Who? He led the league.
• 3:23:17
  He led the league in assist. He led this league in.
• 3:23:19
  He was second or first in the league in rebounds.
• 3:23:22
  And he led the league in assistant rebounds.
• 3:23:25
  You're absolutely right, he did. But SGA's shooting numbers were
• 3:23:28
  his story. Oh.
• 3:23:29
  God here we. Go.
• 3:23:30
  They were. Here we go again.
• 3:23:32
  Here we go again with this garbage.
• 3:23:34
  Here we going. Here we going with this garbage.
• 3:23:37
  Here you go with this garbage. Here you're going with this
• 3:23:40
  garbage Data now, here data. Now I'm going to pull and I'm
• 3:23:44
  going to pull data. I'm going to pull data.
• 3:23:46
  If you look at the wins, if you look at the wins, if you look at
• 3:23:50
  data, big mouth if you hey, big mouth.
• 3:23:53
  If you if you want to look at data, how many when the games
• 3:23:56
  that they want, how many points do they win by?
• 3:23:59
  How many points do they win by? By over 10.
• 3:24:01
  So those points mean nothing. Those points mean nothing.
• 3:24:05
  Those points mean nothing. That shows you how much you know
• 3:24:10
  you're lost, you're lost, you're lost, you're lost.
• 3:24:15
  I'm throwing you something. You have no idea what you're
• 3:24:17
  talking about. They win by more than 12 or 13
• 3:24:20
  points, even by scoring more than four points than your kids
• 3:24:24
  is scoring. And by the way, he didn't even
• 3:24:26
  lead the league in offense. He did.
• 3:24:29
  Luke Kodachi. Did Luke Kodachi did it just
• 3:24:32
  shows you how stupid you're arguing your points man yes it
• 3:24:37
  is it is arguments. Your arguments are horrible.
• 3:24:41
  You lost quote UN quote. You've lost the Kelly Hawkins
• 3:24:46
  led the league in assists, led the league in rebounds and.
• 3:24:49
  Was. 3rd or 4th in offense and he didn't even.
• 3:24:52
  GSA didn't even lead the league in offense.
• 3:24:55
  He didn't even lead the league in offense.
• 3:24:57
  GSA. Whatever.
• 3:25:00
  All. Right.
• 3:25:01
  Get out of the, get out of the frame.
• 3:25:02
  You're, you're, you're sitting there.
• 3:25:03
  Get out of the frame. Get out of the frame.
• 3:25:05
  Get out of the. Frame Push and David Push is
• 3:25:08
  right. You don't listen.
• 3:25:09
  I was. Agreeing with you.
• 3:25:11
  Are you implying instead of the fly on the wall, it's the fish
• 3:25:13
  on the wall? Yeah, it's definitely a fish on
• 3:25:15
  the wall. They call me the Ladies Man or
• 3:25:19
  Mr. Stereo Girl talking. About.
• 3:25:21
  God. Arguing with people that agree
• 3:25:24
  with. SGAGSA, it don't matter.
• 3:25:27
  It's the same freaking thing. By the way, Nicole Yokich has
• 3:25:33
  three. So kissed his ass.
• 3:25:35
  All right, He's got three. Kiss his ass.
• 3:25:37
  He should have 5. He should have 5.
• 3:25:39
  He should have 5. He had stealing it from him.
• 3:25:41
  They're stealing it from him, and I don't care what you say.
• 3:25:44
  He didn't even lead the league in offense.
• 3:25:46
  He didn't even lead the league in offense.
• 3:25:48
  Everything goes to him, Everything.
• 3:25:52
  What are you talking about? What are you talking about?
• 3:25:56
  Do you even know what you're talking?
• 3:25:58
  Oh my God. Oh my God, dude.
• 3:26:00
  Dude, he doesn't even play the fourth quarter.
• 3:26:02
  Half the time. He don't even play the fourth
• 3:26:04
  quarter half the time. He don't even play the fourth
• 3:26:07
  quarter half the time because they're winning by 20 or 30
• 3:26:10
  points. I don't have to.
• 3:26:15
  I'm talking about I'm yeah, I'm talking about SGA IF.
• 3:26:19
  Everything goes to you. Yes, your number should be.
• 3:26:21
  Every single thing goes to. You, dude.
• 3:26:23
  I can tell you definitely what's going to happen tomorrow.
• 3:26:26
  Murray come down the court. Dude, get a screen by Nicola.
• 3:26:28
  Yo dude, guess what Nicola yo just do turn around.
• 3:26:31
  Guess what he do what on the back door patch?
• 3:26:33
  Talking about, that's what are you talking about?
• 3:26:36
  You are lost. You, my friend, are absolutely
• 3:26:41
  lost. Yeah, I don't know Ball.
• 3:26:43
  I know a lot more about ball than you do.
• 3:26:44
  Because if you look at SGA, if you look, I let you speak.
• 3:26:49
  I let you speak. I let you speak.
• 3:26:51
  I let you speak. I let you.
• 3:26:53
  Yeah. I don't have to let you finish
• 3:26:55
  because it's all it's all rubbish.
• 3:26:56
  It's all garbage. It's garbage since you're towing
• 3:26:58
  and you're hoping it sticks. But guess what?
• 3:27:00
  The only thing it's going to be sticking.
• 3:27:02
  It's in your ass. That's what it's going.
• 3:27:05
  It's nothing. It's nothing.
• 3:27:06
  Because SGA is not the MVP of the league.
• 3:27:08
  He's not even the best player in the league.
• 3:27:10
  And you're going to sit here, Yeah, totally him because he's
• 3:27:12
  loved by the NBA. It's it's.
• 3:27:15
  To. Me.
• 3:27:15
  It's not The MVP is all about love for players.
• 3:27:20
  It's it. It's the it's the LeBron James
• 3:27:22
  Association, and that's how it always is.
• 3:27:25
  Yeah. Yeah, no, he's old.
• 3:27:27
  He's old and he should have. And I'm going to tell you this.
• 3:27:29
  LeBron should have won eight MVPS in a row. 8 And they
• 3:27:32
  screwed him too. Yeah, they screwed him too.
• 3:27:35
  Don't. Worry.
• 3:27:36
  Q. When he becomes commissioner,
• 3:27:37
  the top three in the NBA race will be 1 #2 his his son that
• 3:27:41
  you love so much and #3 his son. By the way, you said Ronnie had
• 3:27:45
  a great game. What did he score?
• 3:27:46
  Five? Yeah, five points and two
• 3:27:48
  rebounds. Great.
• 3:27:50
  Great. Oh my God, great game.
• 3:27:53
  Great game. This is what you're applauding
• 3:27:54
  for? Oh my God, he's amazing.
• 3:27:58
  He's amazing. I want him on my team.
• 3:28:00
  I'll take him on my team. He stinks.
• 3:28:03
  He stinks. He stinks.
• 3:28:05
  He stinks. He stinks.
• 3:28:08
  He stinks. He stinks.
• 3:28:11
  He stinks. Ronnie James stinks.
• 3:28:14
  He shouldn't be in the NBA. The only reason why he's in the
• 3:28:17
  NBA because his daddy, Daddy LeBron James.
• 3:28:19
  That's it. And when LeBron James goes to
• 3:28:21
  Cavaliers, guess where Bronies going?
• 3:28:24
  Out the door. Out the door.
• 3:28:26
  I got the door to settle this. We actually have our our stats
• 3:28:32
  to take a look at who made the best team in our savior tears.
• 3:28:37
  We can get it. There, mom, what's one thing?
• 3:28:40
  That you can't talk to me about. My.
• 3:28:42
  Sexual fantasies. Say your sorry it is not ideal,
• 3:28:47
  but if it's what means it is not ideal.
• 3:28:49
  But if it's just not ideal. But if it is, what means?
• 3:28:52
  You can't dribble stamp a double stamp.
• 3:28:53
  You can't. Dribble stamp a double stamp
• 3:28:55
  Lord. You can't dribble stamp a double
• 3:28:56
  stamp Lord. You guys, now it's time for save
• 3:29:02
  your tears. Can't wait.
• 3:29:06
  All right, let's take a look at the board.
• 3:29:07
  One time we had to make a change to everyone's roster because
• 3:29:12
  Peyton Watson didn't play. So I gave you the next best
• 3:29:14
  forward, everyone who took him, which was about 3 people, which
• 3:29:17
  was Nas Reed, who obviously former 6 player of the year.
• 3:29:20
  I thought no one would be unhappy with that replacement
• 3:29:24
  for a dollar. So let's take a look at what
• 3:29:26
  everyone's team was real quick and then see who won.
• 3:29:29
  Again, the winner is me. I know the most about
• 3:29:34
  basketball. How about that?
• 3:29:36
  I could have sworn it was me all along.
• 3:29:38
  I came in second place so. Harold came in second.
• 3:29:41
  So if you haven't been here for this and Q of things is your
• 3:29:43
  first compliment. For us, this is the reward
• 3:29:46
  round. We don't bet money in this game,
• 3:29:48
  we bet compliments. The winner receives at least 51%
• 3:29:54
  positive compliments from the loser.
• 3:29:57
  And we go in reverse order. So Hugh, you're going to start
• 3:30:00
  us off and you're going to because here it is.
• 3:30:04
  You're right here. You came in last place in this
• 3:30:06
  one with 596. Your mistake was taking Aaron
• 3:30:11
  Gordon, who got hurt. And that's what what doomed you.
• 3:30:14
  The reason I won was let's say it together, IO Dosanmu who led
• 3:30:20
  all 2 guards actually second place in two guards behind Josh
• 3:30:24
  Hart with that big game and I took I was the only one who took
• 3:30:28
  OG Ananobi who is actually the leading point getter besides the
• 3:30:32
  center position in this. And in miraculous fashion,
• 3:30:35
  Nathan has returned. Nathan, this is perfect.
• 3:30:38
  So Nathan, you're going to go second Q about 30 seconds, say
• 3:30:43
  51% nice things to me. This makes my pecker hard.
• 3:30:49
  Listen man, this is a sad thing to see, but congratulations to
• 3:30:56
  fish and. You want to eat his balls or
• 3:30:59
  something? I think that, you know, yeah,
• 3:31:03
  the fish was in, you know, when my player got injured.
• 3:31:07
  But for the most part, I want to give it to you.
• 3:31:09
  I want to give it to you, you, you definitely want this
• 3:31:12
  particular segment. And and in the words of Fish
• 3:31:18
  himself, New York sports. Allowable.
• 3:31:22
  I'll take that as 51%. Footballs, we'll move.
• 3:31:26
  On to our third base finished tour, Mr. Speedy PD.
• 3:31:30
  Well, I guess you are considered the disown new guru.
• 3:31:33
  I liked him out of the draft. I didn't know if the value was
• 3:31:36
  there to take him, especially since he's not like no one is a
• 3:31:39
  three-point specialist. He's normally known as a passing
• 3:31:42
  defensive guard, but you saw between the lines, you saw that
• 3:31:45
  we've known Anthony. I was to not disappear randomly,
• 3:31:48
  but sometimes I run his mouth and that cost him.
• 3:31:51
  Unfortunately, it's the injury that cost him this time, but he
• 3:31:54
  found his replacement and made it work.
• 3:31:56
  A big boobs. I might have won the the
• 3:31:58
  football one. I've far from succeeded that in
• 3:32:01
  the basketball and you come out on top.
• 3:32:04
  Thank you, sweetie. That was really kind.
• 3:32:06
  All right. We got Nathan back into the
• 3:32:08
  feed. Nathan lay it on my brother.
• 3:32:12
  Can you hear me now? Yeah, we hear you all right.
• 3:32:14
  Yeah, so finish. Congrats as always.
• 3:32:19
  What a what a great you you picked a great team last week
• 3:32:22
  and make her squirt, make me jerk it like it showed with the
• 3:32:27
  points and I love Lisa Ann. I can't.
• 3:32:32
  Come on. Stop, man.
• 3:32:34
  Let me let me get my points out here, athletes, come on, Arrow.
• 3:32:42
  But no, I was going to say is I love working with fish, even
• 3:32:47
  though he's grumpy sometimes, but he's one of the best
• 3:32:51
  producers out there. In my opinion.
• 3:32:53
  We got one of the best producers.
• 3:32:54
  So guys keep note he does a great job with all the graphics
• 3:32:58
  and all the he gets. He makes sure everything is
• 3:33:00
  ready. So shout out to Fishman.
• 3:33:02
  Congrats and keep it up Fish. Where's panties?
• 3:33:07
  All right. And Errol, I don't know if you
• 3:33:10
  can pull this off. I don't know what the penalty is
• 3:33:12
  if you can't be 51% positive, but we're going to have to come
• 3:33:14
  up with it. Silver medalist.
• 3:33:18
  I'm in one of those moods tonight so.
• 3:33:21
  You see? Come on, titties.
• 3:33:26
  Definitely cycle time right here.
• 3:33:28
  All right, so listen, Fish wins. I I'm not surprised.
• 3:33:33
  I, I not one person to to argue the points of what this game is
• 3:33:39
  all about. It's all about luck, and he's
• 3:33:41
  very lucky. But I will say this Fish has
• 3:33:44
  always been a good friend. He works hard, he puts a lot of
• 3:33:47
  dedication and work into the product.
• 3:33:50
  He, he does work on the back end as good as anybody does.
• 3:33:53
  And, and we, we're always in conversation about making the
• 3:33:56
  show better and the, and the show gets better because me and
• 3:34:00
  him interacting and we try to make this the best show out
• 3:34:02
  there. And, and, and one of the main
• 3:34:04
  reasons why the show has grown as much as it has over the last
• 3:34:08
  year is because of him. So that's how that's all I can
• 3:34:11
  say now. You're in such a better mood,
• 3:34:13
  you've said. Nice.
• 3:34:14
  I don't know about that, I'm not in such a great mood.
• 3:34:16
  Let me show you the overall standing because we will have an
• 3:34:19
  award get to come up with at the end of this.
• 3:34:22
  So the way it works, you get 5 points for a first place finish,
• 3:34:25
  three points for a second and one point for 1/3.
• 3:34:29
  So right now that is the standings with me in front,
• 3:34:31
  Errol and 2nd and Speedy and 3rd.
• 3:34:33
  We'll update those. We'll have the next round when
• 3:34:36
  it comes around probably. I guess on Monday I'll have the
• 3:34:39
  next set up for us for Savior Tears I.
• 3:34:43
  Don't know about that jump, but she's jumping in the background.
• 3:34:46
  I didn't jump, I was just making fun of somebody.
• 3:34:48
  Anyways, we call this. What's that smell?
• 3:34:50
  Hold up, what is that smell? What's that smell?
• 3:34:57
  Yuki wow, you don't see that everyday and I want to say
• 3:35:03
  something. May you rest in peace, Hulk
• 3:35:04
  Hogan. I Hulk Hogan's my favorite
• 3:35:06
  wrestler growing up. I love no holds Bard.
• 3:35:09
  I know a lot of people said that was a terrible movie.
• 3:35:11
  I actually liked it and may you rest in peace.
• 3:35:15
  I watched his if anybody hasn't seen his documentary on Netflix,
• 3:35:18
  it's a great documentary. Go check it out.
• 3:35:20
  It's a must if you're if you love wrestling, you have to
• 3:35:23
  watch it. You, you definitely have to.
• 3:35:26
  All right, so tonight we will go fish.
• 3:35:31
  Q Speedy me? All right, let's kick it off
• 3:35:36
  with a piece of news that just broke a little too late Errol
• 3:35:39
  for us to fit into the show. Texas Tech got the number one
• 3:35:44
  transfer quarterback Brandon Brendan Sorsby coming in after,
• 3:35:49
  you know, obviously impressive run.
• 3:35:51
  They just lost a bunch of guys to the draft.
• 3:35:54
  This guy was supposed to be a pretty big deal.
• 3:35:56
  Well guess what? He's checking into a residential
• 3:35:59
  treatment program for a gambling addiction.
• 3:36:03
  Yes, the top NCAA transfer quarterback in the transfer
• 3:36:07
  portal is not going to play because he is addicted to
• 3:36:11
  gambling. Apparently it goes back number
• 3:36:14
  of years, including a bet on Indiana when he was playing for
• 3:36:18
  them. Although he bet the team to win
• 3:36:20
  and he did not play in that game, that goes to back to 2022.
• 3:36:25
  Apparently, it has not drawn the attention of law enforcement.
• 3:36:28
  He kind of turned himself. In and he's gambling what's
• 3:36:31
  going on. So badly this guy has been
• 3:36:34
  gambling anyway. I love Lisa Ann.
• 3:36:40
  This is definitely like a first of its kind thing where now
• 3:36:43
  we're supposed to feel bad I guess because this kids gambling
• 3:36:47
  on sports and not just throw him out immediately.
• 3:36:51
  The world has changed a lot. What does that smell like?
• 3:36:54
  It smells like whatever that upside down smelled like in
• 3:36:57
  Stranger Things. Really rotten alien nastiness.
• 3:37:01
  Snatch. Oh, man.
• 3:37:10
  All right, so my take we we had a great week with the draft,
• 3:37:16
  Jets had a great draft, came up with an A+ grade in went right
• 3:37:20
  into playoff mode and then here comes the news.
• 3:37:24
  Le'veon Bell goes into this podcast and says that he's seen
• 3:37:29
  in coach Adam Gates stiff cocaine first hand.
• 3:37:33
  So for anybody that doesn't know, cocaine is a substance
• 3:37:36
  that is not allowed on the premises and for some reason
• 3:37:40
  that this coach is actually present with cocaine and
• 3:37:44
  sniffing it apparently without any regards in regards to
• 3:37:49
  anybody walking into his office and catching him sniffing
• 3:37:53
  cocaine. Now listen.
• 3:37:54
  Is that your football is a very tough.
• 3:37:56
  Sport. It's very draining in the
• 3:37:59
  building for a long period of time, but for no, I, I haven't
• 3:38:04
  seen anybody under any circumstances, just, you know,
• 3:38:07
  pop out, you know, some burger sugar and, and stuffs up a
• 3:38:11
  little bit. You know what I mean?
• 3:38:12
  So I, I would like to say that Adam Gates, first of all, you
• 3:38:17
  should be ashamed of yourself. But second of all, what it smell
• 3:38:21
  like that booger sugar smells like coke, hyena hyena.
• 3:38:28
  Coke, Hyena, kaena, kaena. Maybe that's why hyenas go
• 3:38:37
  crazy. That's why he was going crazy
• 3:38:40
  out there. They got that little extra book.
• 3:38:42
  They called her. What are they called?
• 3:38:45
  Scary eyes. Creepy eyes.
• 3:38:47
  Creepy eyes. Yeah, they were touching.
• 3:38:50
  Siriani was going. To be that same way and then he
• 3:38:52
  actually became a good coach. He was doing bumps in between me
• 3:38:55
  and SO. He was Can I touch it?
• 3:38:58
  Pretty crazy. Around and I don't think you
• 3:38:59
  want to touch me or. I think you want to pound out
• 3:39:03
  out of gay Sor Le'veon bell. All right, so my butt's that
• 3:39:05
  smell. I'm going to go to some hockey.
• 3:39:07
  And Sidney Crosby, a guy that is known for drawing trying to draw
• 3:39:12
  penalties and complain of the referees, gets his first ever
• 3:39:15
  embellishment penalty in the NHL, which is surprising
• 3:39:18
  consideration. At the tail end of his career.
• 3:39:20
  Which is surprising. So in game three he he went down
• 3:39:23
  on a hit from Garnett Hathaway of the Philadelphia Flyers.
• 3:39:26
  Previously was with the Capitals and a physical winger and
• 3:39:28
  definitely had their beefs with Sidney Crosby over the years.
• 3:39:31
  Crosby came out and said that he thinks the league should
• 3:39:35
  investigate that kind of thing and these types of penalties
• 3:39:37
  should not be in the league. And yes, it was a penalty, but
• 3:39:40
  why would you call an embellishment penalty?
• 3:39:42
  And then Dan Muse, the new Pittsburgh Penguins head coach,
• 3:39:45
  doubled down on that, say Crosby doesn't embellish.
• 3:39:47
  Well, if you're a Ranger fan, an Islander fan, a Washington
• 3:39:50
  Capitals fan, anyone that's played against any fan that's
• 3:39:52
  seen Crosby play that, I must say they flopped the level of
• 3:39:55
  NBA players. But he's definitely one of the
• 3:39:57
  guys that loves to draw calls and he used to play.
• 3:39:59
  Oh, he never embellishes in his career.
• 3:40:01
  Because it's the first time you got called for it and now your
• 3:40:03
  butt hurt because you're down 2O in a series set time and end up
• 3:40:07
  being three out after that game. So yeah, cry a river, Sidney
• 3:40:10
  Crosby. It's funny, My my in my college
• 3:40:13
  show, the host of the show was a Big Islander fan and he used to
• 3:40:17
  complain about Crosby all the time, but his father was a
• 3:40:18
  Penguins fan. He actually played with him.
• 3:40:20
  He actually got a shirt. Of a Penguin logo crying with
• 3:40:24
  Crosby crybaby on the back of it with a with the 87 so he knows
• 3:40:28
  it well, he's been flopping for a while so why are you
• 3:40:30
  complaining? No.
• 3:40:31
  So what does it smell? Like it smells like Penguin fee
• 3:40:34
  cheese. All over the fate, all over the
• 3:40:36
  face of Penguins. Goon, Matt.
• 3:40:38
  Shut up on your face. That was good.
• 3:40:43
  All right, my final What's that smell goes to the Rams.
• 3:40:47
  The secret Rams wanting to keep the interest in Ty Simpson close
• 3:40:53
  to their vest before the NFL draft.
• 3:40:55
  So the Alabama quarterback kept the meeting with coach Sean
• 3:40:59
  McVeigh private, he said Monday in an interview with Ian
• 3:41:04
  Fitzsimmons on the ESPN Radio show.
• 3:41:07
  Amber and Ian, he said. So I had some secret meeting
• 3:41:11
  with Coach McVeigh, and I just was trying to be on script and
• 3:41:15
  do what everybody told me to do, keep it quiet.
• 3:41:21
  Well, what can I say? I mean, I thought Ty Simpson was
• 3:41:25
  the steal of the draft. I think Ty Simpson is the guy
• 3:41:28
  that they were picking no matter what.
• 3:41:30
  And I believe that if they believe that somebody was out
• 3:41:34
  there going to jump up over him, I could see the Rams trying to
• 3:41:37
  move up to get him. So there was no doubt in
• 3:41:40
  anybody's mind that he was going to be a Ram.
• 3:41:44
  I think it was a great move. I think he will be a good
• 3:41:46
  quarterback in this league. And I think he's going to be
• 3:41:49
  he's going to be reminded and be expected as an elite quarterback
• 3:41:54
  in this league. Could you stop?
• 3:41:54
  Q Could you stop? It's not even.
• 3:41:57
  It's not even funny. I can't even.
• 3:41:59
  Understand. It is, Yeah.
• 3:42:00
  Remember. Nah, yeah.
• 3:42:03
  On your face. Yeah.
• 3:42:06
  Feels. So you know what it smells like?
• 3:42:07
  It smells like Hugh's ass when he takes a shit.
• 3:42:10
  That's what it smells. Like stop breakfast in my butt.
• 3:42:13
  What? You end up thinking, wondering
• 3:42:15
  this thing, ball bag. That's what he is, a big smelly
• 3:42:23
  ball bag. But yeah, I, I thought it was a
• 3:42:26
  good move. And they actually spoke to
• 3:42:28
  Matthew Stafford. They let him know that they were
• 3:42:31
  going to draft him. And I, I think it was a slam
• 3:42:33
  dunk for them. It gives Ty Simpson a little bit
• 3:42:34
  of time to learn the offense. Sean McVeigh is, is going to be
• 3:42:38
  a guy that's going to help this kid develop into a quarterback.
• 3:42:41
  He's got great feet and he's got a great arm.
• 3:42:43
  I, I think it's a slam dunk. And I wouldn't even be surprised
• 3:42:46
  if he's, he could go down as the best quarterback in this class.
• 3:42:50
  That's how good I think he's going to be with Sean McVeigh
• 3:42:52
  and that Rams team. So I'm loving it.
• 3:42:54
  I, I think it's great and I, I wish if he fell to The Jets at
• 3:42:58
  the end of the first round, I think The Jets might have
• 3:43:00
  drafted him so, but I don't think he was going to fall that
• 3:43:03
  far. I what a speed.
• 3:43:04
  What did I tell you? I said that he doesn't, he
• 3:43:06
  doesn't even make it to 16 for The Jets.
• 3:43:09
  And and I thought the Miami Dolphins and I heard that the
• 3:43:12
  Miami Dolphins were interested in him.
• 3:43:15
  They decided to go with Proctor and then two spots after that he
• 3:43:19
  went to the Rams. So that's it.
• 3:43:23
  Thank you to Kenny Davidoff for joining us.
• 3:43:26
  Thank you to Nathan for letting him add his two cents into his
• 3:43:29

  I am not going to make it to his pitching on Saturday.
• 3:44:57
  So somebody's going to go on my stay.
• 3:44:59
  But I will say this, I, I love interviewing him.
• 3:45:02
  I think he's a great, he's a great personality.
• 3:45:05
  I think people, when you get to know him and, and get to see
• 3:45:08
  what type of person that he is on and off the field, you, you
• 3:45:11
  kind of, you kind of fall in love with him as, as a player
• 3:45:14
  and, and I think that's what he is.
• 3:45:15
  I think the media really loves him.
• 3:45:16
  He's a media darling and, and you can see it and the fans love
• 3:45:20
  him over there too. So anyways, that's it.
• 3:45:22
  We'll see you on Thursday. Worldwide.
