• 0:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 0:59
  Speaker 3: And some of these guys, even in Rolling Stones, I mean,
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: I don't know how they how do they do it?
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: Like in their eighties? These guys got to be eighty.
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: Right, I mean stair aged, you know, I don't know
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: what it is, or they got so much whatever stuff
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: in their system that they can't possibly die their their
• 1:18
  Speaker 3: bodies already formaldehyde. I mean they got right, what do
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: they got in their system? No germs can live in
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: their systems. They anything that tries to get in there,
• 1:29
  Speaker 3: you die.
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: How do they do it? It's it's remarkable, it really
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: is it really, really really is. I get a kick
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: out of those guys.
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: Hey, I want to ask you about one of your players,
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: freshmen from Ireland, Gannymo Mamel. What do you like about her?
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: Every everything, everything, She's an adult. It's great to have
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: her and Blanca are you know, two kids that are
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: more adult like than their age. And I think that
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: might have a lot to do with I think the
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: international kids are a little bit older in the sense
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: that they've had more varied experiences, they've been on their
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: own more so I think that for them, you know,
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: going away to school and being there, it's not a
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: big deal. And so yeah, I think not this year,
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: but I think next year, the year after that. I
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: think and Andy's going to be really really a big
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: factor in Yukon women's basketball. She's a great, great human being.
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: Nobody can keep her from offensive rebounding, and she's hard
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: to score over. You know, she's six six or whatever
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: the actually is, and you know, she's just a nice,
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: nice kid, a great kid.
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: But she's got a.
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: Little bit of an edgy, mean streak on the court,
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: and a lot of our guys stay clear of her.
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: Just saying speaking of edgy, I mean, it's not like,
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: you know, do you have enough of those players that.
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: We are so girly sometimes? You know, you know, the
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: thing that we talk about all the time is that
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: when when you're a competitor, you know, when you're competing,
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: you're you're always.
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: Trying to.
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: Basketball that you can say basketball is five on five
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: and at the same time, no, it's not. You know,
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: basketball is like a one on one sport. Right, I
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: have the ball, you're trying to guard me, and if
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: you can't guard me, then you know we've got a problem.
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: And you have the ball and.
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: I'm on defense, and if you can't go where you
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: want to go because my defense is so good, then
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: you got a problem.
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: So I think.
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: Basketball requires a certain because there's no place to hide,
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: you know, right, you can play right field in baseball
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: and be out there for two hours, get a nice
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: sun tan and never get any balls hit to you,
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: and you strike out three times and you go home.
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: I was the game, Tommy, It was great. I had
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: a fun time. You know, in basketball, you got to
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: play man. There's no place to hide, so you got
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: to play defense, you got to handle the ball you got,
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: So it really becomes a game where you have.
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: To you got to be tough.
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: You gotta be tough, tough mentally, tough physically to play
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: this game. And I think when you when you when
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: you have the kind of offensive players that we have,
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: there really is one.
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: Alternative.
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: If you're the other team, you're gonna have to find
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: a way to be so physical that we can't function.
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: We can't run our stuff, we can't go from here
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: to there, we can't you know, we can't and cut,
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: we can't do the things that we do. And that's
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: where really smart officiating comes in, because if you're a
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: really smart official, you go, okay, well what am I
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: what am I refereeing tonight?
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: Well, I'm refereeing a team.
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: That this is what they like to do. So if
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: they get beat up and they can't do it, then
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: that's a fout. That's you're not allowing these guys to
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: you know, the freedom of movement.
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: If you're another team, like, what do they do? Well?
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: They throw it in the post and they score in
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: the post. All right, So when these guys catch the ball,
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: you know, we can't you know, have these guys beating
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: the hall out of them and score. So bottom line
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: is you got to be you got to be physically
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: and more even more so mentally.
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: Tough to play at a really really high level.
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: And and you know, we wouldn't be sitting here with
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: twelve national championships if we didn't have kids that the
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: other teams didn't want to play against. You know, if
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: you if you were coming up the floor and you
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: saw Shay and you looked in her face, you're like,
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: I don't want any part of this.
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: You know. I used to see ber name my gun.
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: I mean, we have a video of her standing at
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: the free throw line after we just scored and they're
• 6:06
  Speaker 3: inbounding the ball and she's like a cheetah and she's
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: just going like this, And you could tell the kids
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: just like I don't want any part of this, you know,
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: or you know, do you go in the lane and
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: there's Tina Charles just you know, Steph Dolsan and one
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: of these guys. So you got to have an intimidating
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: kind of a presence if.
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: You want to be really, really good.
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: And I know that you know a lot of our fans,
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: well we love this kid, we love that kid.
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: Oh, this kid's great. And then she's cute and she
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: just tough. Shit.
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: You're like, you got to really be a tough kid
• 6:37
  Speaker 3: if you're going to apply. Like my daughter when she
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: was in Yukon, she was a nice kid and she
• 6:41
