• 2:04
  Speaker 1: things on him. Well that's all we're doing the segment here.
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: That's crazy. No, mine just came with the phone, Kevin.
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: Mine is Kirka National Park in Croatia when I went
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: and visited years ago, about four or five years ago.
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: And it's an awesome picture and it reminds him probably
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: have a cool time in his life exactly. But don't
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: you have a girlfriend. Yeah you do or don't anymore? Yeah,
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: I know, I do, I do. Yeah you ain't there yet, No, no,
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: we're still background is still Croatia. Okay, Mike wedding photo
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: of leaping the waiting wedding. Okay, what about you, Coleman.
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: What's the background on your phone? Your lock screen, Eddie.
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: Mine would have been the exact same as yours. I
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: just would have kept it, you know what Apple gave me.
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: But my wife was like, what your lock screen isn't me?
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: So had to switch it to her. Wow, you guys
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: have all of your minds my wife important things. It's
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: just my wife. It's not even me. I don't want
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: me in it because I don't look at me. I
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: hate me, so I don't want to see So it's
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: just her. I did see a picture because I guess
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: maybe it's Valentine's Day came when you posted a picture
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: she's she's way prettier than you are, very much though
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: it's not even close. And I was thinking when I
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: was looking at a picture of I was like, yeah,
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: he had to score twenty nine at night because this
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: post was I met her. I just drawed twenty nine
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: and then met her after the game or something like that,
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: was like, yeah, you gotta put up in your thirty
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: to get somebody way hotter than you. Absolutely, how that
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: impressed somehow? How do you meet her? Um? So, Actually
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: it was the night before we had played our rival
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: hill Dale Muscogeese. That's where she went. Oftentimes goes in
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: support Hilldale. One of my buddies actually dropped twenty four,
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: got the confidence to text one of her best friends,
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: and then we kind of went as the double date.
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: But then we obviously had the chemistry and kept it going.
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: So nine years later, here we are. So did you
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: score twenty nine the night after the date or the
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: night before? The night after the date? Which was arguably
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: more important because I had just backed my dad jeep
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: into my mom's car literally two hours before the game,
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: busted out the back windshield. If I don't drop twenty nine,
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: my dad's definitely pissed. There's no way I'm getting to gate.
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: No way. Is your dad? Is your daddy? Coach? No? No? No? Okay? Right?
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: And so was she watching that game? Did she come?
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: So you've just been on a date? Was she there? No,
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: she wasn't there. We didn't go on the date until
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: the next weekend. But like I said, if I don't
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: drop twenty nine dads like, no, you're not going out,
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: You're coming home. Got it? Okay, good, it's a good story. Yeah,
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: I like it. Um, And you're wearing a Pebble Beach
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: hat Eddie and I just played there. Have you been
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: there before? Do you have that? Yes? That's actually where
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: I proposed to my wife. This is crazy? Yes, how okay,
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: what's what's the story there? Yeah? I knew I wanted
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: to do something special for our proposal. During you know,
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: COVID time in March of one, we went to Pebble
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: Beach and Loan Cyprus. It was perfect. It was Labor
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: Day weekend, I think, and so they weren't allowing tourists
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: in for whatever reason, and so it was just my
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: wife and I at the Loan Cypress, no one else
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: around for twenty minutes. Felt like God paused time for
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: a little bit. It was incredible. What's lone Cypress? That
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: was another course. It was so the tree, the tree,
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: you know, like on seventeen mile drive. It's just like
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: this lone cypress that sits out. Oh it's not just
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: a huge tree. That's the tree where we drop bones.
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: Remember when we are balls went in the water and
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: we had to drop by that tree. I don't know
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: if you're tell the truth or not. Yeah, yeah, the
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: last hole. It's that big tree that's in the middle
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: of the true because he also thought it was a
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: course until a second ago. Coleman. No, no, no, that's
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: a different tree. This is like just off the course
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: about a mile, so the tree is not even on
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: the So why I even mentioned this tree because that's
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: where he went. No, no, no, I know I know
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: why he's mentioned it. I'm just saying, why is it
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: called the Lone Tree? Like it's a random tree in
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: the middle of nowhere. That makes no sense. I don't
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: know why it's the logo. That's a good question. And
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: I guess just because it's nearby. I don't know. And
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: when you guys went out there, did you know you
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: were going to did you know you're gonna propose? She
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: had an idea. She didn't know when or where. But
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: we've been dating for a long time. Special trip, you know,
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: she had an idea. And how do you go, Hey,
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: we're gonna go. Do is that a place you guys
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: normally went or was it just heyo, No, this was
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: a one off, you know. I guess it is a
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: little selfish. I wouldn't play three rounds of golf and
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: then decided that it was the perfect time to pro
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: post that. Yeah, I just thought we'd make a great
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: trip out of it. Are you a good golfer? I
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: would say, I'm an okay golfer's I'm seeing that their
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: relationship revolves around his successes like his just his sports.
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: If she wasn't successful, I wouldn't be able to I
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: wouldn't be able to go out and do this venture
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: to begin with, so definitely rely on her. Where are
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: you today, by the way, I am just outside of St. Louis, Missouri.
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: I had to get about as close as I could
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: so I could, you know, be nearby for the Ryan
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: Ritter interview. Had to get as close to Martin, Tennessee.
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: So tell me who are you interviewing today? Ryan Rittard,
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: the U T Martin head coach. I'm really excited about it.
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: Um my first time to get in front of a
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: coach one on one and be able to interview him.
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: So thank you all so much for setting that up.
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: I don't even to pay him I should have just
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: not paid him at all and just said here, we're
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: gonna pay you interviews. There we go, Okay, we're here, Mike.
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: Let's go with the tittle tattle tattle, all right, Kevin,
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: with the official release this week? Where do you think
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: the best landing spot is for quarterback Derek Carr. I'm
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: gonna tell you what I like about this Derek Carr
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: situation is from everything I know about Derek Carr, and
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: do you have a couple of friends that know Derek Carr.
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: He's a great dude. They love him. He's like a
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: plus nice guy, good guy. And the fact that he's
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: sticking it to the Raiders. It's hilarious because they were like, hey,
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: we're gonna trade you. How about Saints. We've got to
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: say here, I don't only tried anywhere, no trade claws.
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: I'm just gonna be a free agent, which means they
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: they got nothing for him. So that tells me that
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: he's upset with probably the coaching set Listen, we had
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: heard a lot of rumors anyway that they weren't they
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: weren't vibing. McDaniels and Derek Carr were not kind of
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: on the same Page in a lot of ways, and
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: he didn't want to miss as a quarterback. And so
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: now that Cars got that opportunity, he's like, we're good.
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: Suck it not in so many words. I don't quote
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: him today, that's not what he said, but you know,
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: I think the Saints will be great for him. I
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: think the Titans will be awesome for him. That'd be cool.
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: I mean, selfishly, I'd love for him to play where
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: we are for the Titans. I do think he's an
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: upgrade from Tannehill just because and Tannehill did some things
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: that no really other Titans quarterback has been able to do.
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: As far as how far the times have got in
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: the playoffs, I mean, what do McNary get him to
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: the the Rams? There? So so it's been forever since,
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: but with Tannehill there is a ceiling that he's not
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: going to throw consistently for two fifty. Carr had the
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: worst defense period over like the past five, six, seven years.
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: He didn't have to have a chance with the Raiders.
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: I do think it's top twenty quarterback, which is not
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: saying a lot considering there's not forty quarterbacks. But I
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: do think it's a top quarterback, and I think the
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: Saints will be great. I think the Titans will be great.
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: I think anywhere that he has a shot, with decent
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: weapons and a decent defense will finally get to see
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: if he's as good as I think he is. So
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna go Titans. I think that would be awesome.
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: That's very selfish. But the Saints also actually a place
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: I can see him land too. What about you, I well, selfishly,
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: I want to see him go to the Saints just
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: because he said you can't trade me there. But I'm
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: gonna be yeah. But I think the Commanders would also
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: be a good woman because they have a good defense.
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: They have McLaurin, a wide receiver, a couple of weapons
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: here and there, and if they can get a quarterback,
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: I feel like they can maybe take that next leap.
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you this, eddingt to talk with the
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: coach of the Commanders, Ron Rivera, and we know what's
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: happening over there, and I'm gonna tell you it ain't
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: Derek Carr, and you can't say anything about it. We
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: probably we've we've had hey, we're very well connected. Coleman
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: in the way we saw him standing in the room
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: and we went and attacked him, and he was so
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: nice to us, and I just asked him. I was like, Hey,
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: what's up, what's that? What's happening a quarterback next year?
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: He just sort of landed out. I feel like I
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: shouldn't say anything because I don't feel like that's an advironer.
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: It was a pebble beach because he was playing in
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: the tournament, same one I was playing in, and I
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: feel like that's kind of sacred ground. We're just two
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: guys talking, but it ain't Derek Carr, but it would
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: be good. It maybe a good spot for him too.
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: I'll leave it there. Let's just say it rise with
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: Rom Brady. Al right. Next question, Kevin, do you think
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: Eric b Enemy needs to leave Kansas City to prove
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: himself head coaching worthy? Probably at this point. I mean,
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: he won a Super Bowl already, had been to the
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: champion of the a s C Championship. Andy Ready gets
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: so much credit, all the credit offensively. And I saw
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: that he was talking or a couple other teams wanted
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: to talked to him as d OC, not as the
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: head coach. So it's seeming that if somebody wanted him
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: as a head coach. They would have already hired him
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: as head coach, So I think he kind of needs
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: to go somewhere where he's gonna get some credit for it.
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: So my answer, the easy answer is yes for that
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: or he would already have been a head coach based
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: on the knowledge that I have in the situation. But
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: it's wild that it hasn't had that shot yet. There's
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: something we don't know. Absolutely. I feel like that to
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: just generally in life with all things, but especially here
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: the next one out. After losing bold coordinators this week,
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: do you think the Eagles run is a one and done. No,
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: I would compare it to it's tough because it's not
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: the same. But like, look Alabama daylies coordinators and they
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: don't win National champions coordinators every year that he replaced
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: some of the good coordinators. Like if Sirianni is the
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: coach that people think he is, then I think you'll
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: find other great coordinators. The best thing the head coach
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: can do is put coordinators into head coaches, because then
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: other other great coordinators want to come be the coordinator
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: to get the next shot up. At a head coach.
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: It's an annoying cycle. But good teams have to deal
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: with it in college in the NFL because if you
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: win a lot, why do you want a lot with
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: the head coach and Leavin your fits great, Let's take
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: your off as a coordinator and on and on. So No,
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: I don't. I think the defense is mostly back. I
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: think they have. They're they're back. Most of those Eagles
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: guys are coming back. So I think they're gonna be
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: legit again. And I think Jalen Hurts has shown that
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: he's good regardless, Like keep balled out hard than anybody
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: else period. In the super Bowl, they just didn't win.
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: Like keep balled out. I mean he went hard, he
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: said records, he threw, he ran. He did it all
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: with a hurt shoulder too, and they didn't talk much
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: about hurt shoulder. I'd have faked it. I'd have faked
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: it worse out with him the same way out of
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: the same way I said about my homes would have
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: been like I'd have been limping the whole time, even
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: if it wasn't hurting. Just so what this story would
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: go down in history. So I think the Eagles are
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: for real. I think they'll be for real next year
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: to Okay, going to basketball for the first time. Do
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: you think the addition of k D makes his sons
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: a favorite out in the West. Yeah, and by far
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: for sure. I mean Katie Katie is I'll be selfish
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: about the comparison, Katie is Andy Roddick, where if Lebron
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: had didn't happen to be here right now, Katie would
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: be the best basketball player alive, and he would be
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: that for seven to ten years. And I'd say the
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: same thing about Andy and Federer because it was a
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: time before at all hit where Andy was just like
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: Feder's beating him in every in the final of whatever,
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: over and over, and I was like, thank or Tiger
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: and Phil. You know, Phil's number two forever behind Tiger,
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: and that's always the case. But Katie is so freaking good,
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: and we forget we talked about you can talk about
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: these seven footers that can also stretch you know, uh,
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: a stretch four, even a stretch five. Katie's the o
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: G of that. I mean, you go back and do
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: some mos of the Malone type stuff, but not really.
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: But Katie's like the he's seven foot and he shoots
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: like he's six too. But he's been doing it for
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: so long that he doesn't even get putting that conversation sometimes.
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: So yes, by far, I mean when I watched I
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: mean Chris pod nineteen assists the other night, like just straight,
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: like that team is REGI I mean, dare Devin Booker
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: scored like forty and had no threes. They're already really good.
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: Kevin Durant is gonna make them great. It's gonna be
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: really cool to see. I like Katie because he's a weirdo.
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: I like anybody that's weird and does their own stuff
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: because they want to do their own stuff, even if
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: I don't want to do with the thrown stuff, like
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: I like anybody who does that. Yeah, so they're there.
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: They were already there, and now they're they're there, and
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: if they don't win that would be wild. Then they're
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: just done. But Durant's gonna be there two more years, right,
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: isn't it? Three year? Deal? This year and two more?
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: I think three more? Is it? Three more? Yeah? I
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: want to say, I wonder if he's rich? Oh you
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: know he? Are you serious? Kidding? All right? What else
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: you got? Do you think the similarity in style play
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: between Kyrie and Luca as a cause for concern from
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: mas fans, I must say no, and here's why, because
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: they weren't getting anywhere but just Luka doing how Luca does.
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: I would watch Luca play two games a week on Sunday,
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: ticket package, NBA packet, whatever that whatever the crap I
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: have on Amazon that the what is that called NBA
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: big past Lee pass and I watched Luca dominate. But
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: when Lucas putting up forty, when Jalen Bronson was there,
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: they could at least go, Okay, Luca is gonna still
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: play and take off a little bit, but Bronson is
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: gonna be part of the offense. Bronson can also take
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: over them not paying him and him going to the Knicks.
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: That was a bad move retrospect. They weren't gonna go
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: anything past maybe around in the playoffs with Luca with
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: only Luca, and he is generational, But think of a
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: generational player that's been so good and didn't have a
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: great number two. I mean think about Curry, Yep, Jordan's
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: yep lebron one titles mostly except for Cleveland and even
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: then one year. Yeah, I say like kinda. So even
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: if they do conflict, you still gotta give it a run.
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: It's one season they weren't gonna do it. This year
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: they have a shot now that they actually have a
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: shake up, that could create a spark there. And surely
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: Kyrie cannot be an idiot for four months, you would think.
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: I mean, he plays with the ball a lot, he
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: needs the ball a lot. He's a gut the places
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: the ball, so does Luca. So to be interesting interesting
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: to see, um, But I'm gonna say it shouldn't cause concern.
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: It should actually cause excitement because even if they flare out, Okay,
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: at least they tried something, and with that team, you
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: just wanted to try something. What do you think about
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: that calling? Yeah, I feel like that's Cubans mentality, which
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: I respect, you know, I mean, that's a controversial guy
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: in terms of you know, Kyrie hasn't had commitment, it
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: seems like to a team in quite some time, so
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: definitely could have made a trade that you know doesn't
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: pan out. But I get it when you say, hey,
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: we don't have the talent around Luca to win a championship.
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: Kyrie gives us that potential. I respect Huban for taking
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: the risk because otherwise, what are they going to do
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: this season? Went around. That's probably the ceiling. Now. I
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: think the ceiling is mentional conference finals that I don't
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: think they can get to the champion to the NBA Finals.
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: But maybe Kyrie signs for another couple of years. Would
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: I just wouldn't want. I just want with Kyrie on
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: my team in general? Alright, what else you got sitting
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: at the top of the East for the majority of
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: the season. Is it inevitable that a Bucks and Celtics
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: Eastern Conference championship is gonna happen? I don't know, Coleman,
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: you go for we think at Bucks and Celtics? Is
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: that in the East? Is that in there? I'm gonna
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: go no, is my answer, but I'll tell you why.
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: But Coleman, you go first? Is that inevitable? I don't
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: think it's inevitable. I'm not gonna um go out on that,
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: you know, boll claim and say it's inevitable. But I
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: do think that's what will happen. I know that's taking favorites.
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: But how the Celtics look so solid right now? Tatum
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: is just continued to approve, improve and emerge. And then
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: the Bucks, with your honest it seems like they might
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: just run the East for a little bit with as
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: dominant as he can be. I think that and I agree,
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: and Tatum is now level A plus tire like this
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: season has been the season where he is now in
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: that Luca Janice in that category. It's crazy to see
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: because we've seen him come up very young and kind
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: of elevate to that slowly. It's kind of been a maturation,
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: which we don't always get to see that, and then
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: make the finals and he wasn't quite there it was.
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: It wasn't quite there last year like at times he was,
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: he's killing everybody this season, he's watch him, he's just
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: dominating the only team. Like I saw the Love once
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: out with the Calves because he's not he's not in
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: the rotation, so he's like, hey, would you guys let
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: me go? So I think they're gonna buy him out,
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: so Kevin Love will leave there. But I think Cleveland
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: and the Sixers both have those outside shots just based
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: off talent alone, that they can catch fire. We forget
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: about stars at times because of headlines of other stars.
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: But Joel Embiid, I mean's so leg if he's healthy,
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: he's as good or better than just about everybody except
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: for maybe honest, and even then he could outplay him
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: three games of seven um and hardened. I mean, if
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: he's not fat, what else you got going to a
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: double A here? After losing two games in a row,
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: the Tennessee proved they're still a legit contender when they
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: beat Alabama. So I watched almost the whole game. Alabama
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: is so good and we talked about this where Alabama,
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: if they're not hitting outside, it's tough for them to win.
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: And they were playing in Tennessee, which is a tough
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: place to play. Have been there many times watching games.
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: Most time we lose, we go to Tennessee tins. He's
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: also really good tins. He's also always really good in season. Barnes, though,
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: chokes on a walnut when it comes to postseason, which
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: is crazy to me. He did it everyone did in Texas.
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: He does it in Tennessee. Uh. Tennessee is good. And um,
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: you know Vicaro or whatever his name is. This year
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: he changes how to say his name. Tennessee is good.
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: I think that they are a contender in winning the
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: SEC tournament. I think they don't have really the horses
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: to win the whole thing, but I do think they
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: can win the SEC Tournament. I think Alabama is still
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: the team to beat, but it was like it was good.
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: I mean, they were up by six seven points with
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: like forty five seconds to go last night. For a
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: second Alabama pushed and I thought Albama was gonna make
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: a run because they always make a run. I watch
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: Alabama Auburn in a couple of days prior, and that's
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: what they did. They were tied with like four minutes left,
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: and I got on my map and I was like,
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: let's go as Auburn plus four when they were tied,
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: and I was pitty bucks on Auburn plus four. Alabama
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: one by like twelve, and it was I was like, mother,
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: so stupid. I haven't turned it on. But yes, Tennessee
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: is good, they can win the SEC tournament, but Alabama
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: is still the team. What do you think about that? Yeah,
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: I don't think Tennessee is a national title contender because
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: I'm not falling for what you've mentioned, Bobby, just the
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: Rick Barnes stuff. Every single year, there a first weekend
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: exit year after year, no matter if there are two seed,
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: three seed. They seemed always borowed early. And although they
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: are elite defensively, that's always the calling card. I worry
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: that they struggle to score enough points when it matters,
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: and I don't think they're a true national title contender
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: because of that final question, Kevin as the consensus number
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: one conference when it comes to depth, do you think
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: or would you rather take the Big Twelve or the
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: field if the tournament started today? So I can take either,
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: it should just team Okay, so we're talking Kansas, Texas, Baylor.
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: Basically I was stayed. Yeah, But I mean I'm talking
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: about teams that I would actually think could do some
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: damnit out of the Big Twelve. Coleman, let's talk about
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: this together. Who would who do you think you make
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: the Sweet sixteen out of the Big twelve? Of all
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: those schools? Well, see uh To fully answer the question,
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: I mean, I think that there are four or five
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: Big Twelve teams that will make the Sweet sixteen. I
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: would wouldn't be surprised at all if none of them
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: make the final four. I think in the Big Twelve,
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: we've got a bunch of good teams, a bunch of
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: really good teams. I don't think there's a single great team.
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: If I had to pick one, I think it's Baylor.
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: Getting cham watch Chewa back healthy is huge for them,
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: specifically their defense. They're great offensively. If they can start
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: to turn the corner defensively, I think they're the Big
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: twelve's best chance. But I think the Big twelves a
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: bunch of good teams, no great teams. I think that
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: I would take the field as well. I've watched Kansas.
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: I've watched Kansas play enough. I watched them get beat
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: by Kansas State. I've watched them again. They're they don't
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: even eye tell dominance the I test well coached and
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: winning games because they're in the right place at the
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: right time with good shooters, fundamental basketball, but athletically and Coleman,
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: you can tell me if I'm wrong. They don't look
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: like a Texas or a Kansas team. Can't. Texas is
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: so much more athletic than Kansas is. Like when I
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: watched that in, Texas gets a little sloppy and obviously
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: the beards out the assistant coaches, now the head coach,
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: the interim Texas looks like athletes. Like like Texas can
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: beat anybody at any time, but they're not gonna be
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: They're not gonna win three games in a row like that. Um,
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: so I agree. I think Kansas, Texas and Baylor are
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: probably the three teams out of that conference, and Baylor's
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: probably if I had to bet the one, but I
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: wouldn't take the Big twelve over the field, So thank
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: you very much. That's till Tattle, go for it, stupid,
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: We're gonna lose coleman age seconds. We have a few
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: more minutes with them, so I want to go first. Um.
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: I saw that calling Castleton's out for Florida for the
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: rest of the regular season broke his hand, which just
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: he's Florida's whole team. Basically, he's awesome all the way.
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: Whines like crazy watching it. He just cried. His face
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: cries even when he's not crying. He's one of those
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: guys not on your team. Yes, if he's not on
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: your team, you hate him, But if he's on your team,
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: you love him. But Castleton out really hurts Florida. Um.
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: Did you have you watched any of Colling Castleton's game
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: over the last couple of years? Colman? Oh? Absolutely, I
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: have loved Collin Collen Castleton's game. I have thought Florida
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: was going to be better than they've been each of
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: the last two years. So they've disappointed me a little bit.
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: But I love Colin Castleton's game. Disappointing that they're gonna
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: lose him. They were already on the outside looking into
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: the bubble. Now without him, um, they'll be an I
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: t bound at best. I saw Coleman tweet this, and
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: then he's gonna go interview the coach from UT Martin.
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: So we're gonna let him go. But Coleman said, let's
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: take a look at what grade the three leading scores
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: have been on every national team since, which I think
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: that's your duke on it. And so Coleman, you list
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: at them, So walk me through this and the point
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: you're trying to make here. Yeah, So of those eight
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: team leading scorers to the three leading scorers from the
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: past six national champions sixteen of them were juniors or seniors.
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: The other two were sophomores. So I think that just
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: goes to show it takes a veteran poise team that
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: can create consistency. We get so caught up in highlights
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: and teams a plus game. Wow, they blew that team
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: out by thirty points. They look so great there. If
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: if we're taking team's best a plus game and crowning
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: a national champion. Duke would have won the national title
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: in twenty nineteen. It wouldn't have been close, but they
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: weren't consistent enough, didn't have that veteran leadership to be
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: consistent for what it takes to win a national title
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: and proof in the leading scorers. You've got to have
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: veteran play guys that have been there before to win
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: a national title, at least what we've seen in recent history.
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: Just like this show, young people don't matter, like Coleman. Yeah,
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: you gotta technomy, all right, Hey call him my good
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: luck with the interview. We'll we'll hear it probably on
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: Monday show. And are they hooking you up with like seats?
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: Are you're not paying for tickets anymore? Right? Like we
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: got you? I? I sure hope so I I don't
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: think they'll have to? All right? Good. If there's anything
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: that we can do, it's getting tickets to ut Martin game.
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: Can I can I venmo him for like popcorn and stuff?
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: We could actually we can pay for his popcorn. Got you?
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: I'll get your gatorade? Coleman, Wait, you're near sating, so
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: there there you t Martin is playing in Where are
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: they playing? Where are you? I know St. Louis Martin,
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: but I'm in St. Louis when I'm about to go
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: to Tennessee Martin. How far has that got it? Oh,
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: you're leaving. You're leaving to drive. I thought you're like
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: walking over to an office or something. No, no, yeah,
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: leaving to drive. Okay, well then leave, I asked Mike.
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: I said, they're not gonna call him middle of the interview,
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: be like, you have to leave your hotel room again? Right,
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: all right, Coleman, have a safe trip, buddy. We'll talk
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: to you Monday. Thanks, guys, have a good one. All right,
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: there is Coleman. He'll be back on Monday. I don't
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: want to mention a couple of other things. And we
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: have a really good interview with Houston Barber from the
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: Corner Blow, which is so legit. It's just a guy
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: like on TikTok. It's awesome interview. I want to get.
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: It's so good. Um. A couple of things. Number one,
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: you know Aaron Rodgers Darkness Retreat. That's the four day
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: Darkness Retreat. He goes in, he does whatever he does,
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: and comes out and has all the answers to the
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: world solitary Confretty cool? Yeah, pretty cool. I got a
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: little slide. They slide his food in there, and he
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: kept to your tray. That's what I imagine. It's like prison.
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: What would our wives say if we told him we
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: wanted to go on a four day I was just
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: thinking about this individually. Wives are and Kevin, you do
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: your girlfriend? What if you went to your wife and said,
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: you know, I've been really struggling. I feel like I
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: need to do four days of darkness. Can you respect that?
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: What would your wife say? Eddie Man, she let me
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: go to Pebble Beach for four days, So I would say,
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: if I time it right and I have the exactly
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: right thing that I need to say at the right time,
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: I think she let me do it. She would. Yeah,
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: My wife's like that, Like, now, would you do it though?
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: Or would you lie and then just play golf or
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: something the daytime and just FaceTime her, like you know,
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: what's nighttime and you're in your room and the TV's
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: office and you can barely see you you just face
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: time or from like those set scenarios. Now you're talking, Yeah,
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: because because a dark retreat, like what what is what
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: is he doing here? Like, we're not going to do that? Yeah,
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: I think she would. I'll just tell her, you know,
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: I just need to work on me, get my head straight,
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: and then she'd be like, Okay, you probably should go.
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: What do you think you're crazy for four days of darkness? Like? Um,
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: she probably asked me questions like really you really need
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: that and have explained it and you're like, oh, yess
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: if that's what you think you need. I like how
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: we all have to be like, hey, it's what we need,
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: right stop spoken about it. I think my wife would say,
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: you have to listen to a podcast and have lights
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: on nightlights when you sleep. Why would you want to
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: go to a darkness retreat? Like what are you really doing?
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: Going follow in the Arkansas Away Games? I just don't
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: think she would believe me, Mike, Oh, she would let
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: me go. I've told my wife recently, even before they
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: say Aeronautter stuff came out, that I just want to
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: sit in a room with darkness, nothing around me because
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: sometimes my brain just gets so like consumed with all
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: these things we have going on, and I just want
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: quiet and dark for how long? Though? Because I could
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: do that for ten minutes. I think you like I
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: could do it. There we go crazy, Okay, where do
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: you go? Like bathroom and stuff, like how do you
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: find it? Like they say, oh, in the darkness treat.
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: I think you met in my house. No, no, no, no,
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: the darkness retreat in the room. They're just like toilets
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: in the corner. Yeah, where is the corner? There have
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: to be times where he's actually able to see, or
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: he turns his phone on or something. I'm not saying
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: to call anybody. There's gonna be a lamp or some okay,
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: like a night light. Yeah, I don't think they poke
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: his eyeballs out and he has no access to seeing
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: at all, because like when I was a kid, I
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: used to love trying to walk around my house trying
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: to get from one part of the house to the
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: other with my eyes closed. I nail a wall. I'd
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: knock a planner over every single time. So, like, this
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: could be tough. It's weird and a little bit. He's
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: probably doesn't for like six hours, but since he's Aaron Rodgers,
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: he's like, yeah, I miss four days. Okay, Okay, big news,
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: sad news, but it is news. First of all, the
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: good news is we're continuing the show. We told you
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: for six more weeks, so we'll go to the end
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: of basketball. But then after that, you know, we don't
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: have a plan to do the show consistently. I think
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: if something happens in sport, to hop on and do
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: a little something to talk about it every week and
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: half or two. I don't know. There's no plan because
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: we are only doing the show for twenty five episodes
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: up until the super Bowl, which turned into four over
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: forty episodes. But then they said, hey, we do six
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: more weeks to the Yes, yes, yes, But in a
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: very Loue Garry type situation here, I bring to the
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: microphone pretty ready, ready, guys, my short career is that?
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: Is that what it was like here in sports podcasting.
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna have to step down because my plate is
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: too full, penus too small. Well, I didn't say that.
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: What's that echo doing. I don't know, man, that's weird. Yeah, man,
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: I'm quit. I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go through March madness,
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: but I think after I'm gonna step away a little bit.
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: He's quitting everything. Yeah, not not not the not the
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: bibone show, his video stuff, has gotten. It's all that work,
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: and so are you still doing sore Losers. I'm gonna
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: do sore Losers for a little bit, but then I'm
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: quitting that too, so when you're walking. So we're doing
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: this for six if we're not leaving for six weeks,
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: and then you're done with all sports this and sold Losers. Yes,
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna step away from the sports world. I want
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: to will never be the same, which I want. You're
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: gonna pull Tom Brady five. You're coming back? Yeah, I
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: don't think so. Is that your prediction? Yeah? For sure.
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: All right, I'll tell you what happened, get like a
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: month out, and you'll be like, can I be honest?
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: My wife said me or sports podcasting? Did you pick yourself?
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: I picked sports podcast and then she said I'm leaving her. Yeah. Yeah,
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: it's like I'm gonna miss her still. You're going on
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: a darkness or treat for months that work. Eddie is leaving,
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: is leaving sports podcasts, Kevin iss with me and you, buddy.

• 30:43
  Speaker 1: turning it off right now. Good luck, guys. Okay, I
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: want to go over this interview this is and I
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: love to have this is such a such a good interview,
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: mostly because I enjoy them on TikTok. So, this is
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: Houston Barber from the Corner Blitz here on twenty whistles. Houston,
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: how are you, buddy? I'm doing great. How are you okay?
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: So I'm a big fan and uh, just like probably
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: anybody else has come across your work, Like I just
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: scroll on TikTok and I watch all your videos and
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: I told my producer, I was like, we gotta get
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: this dude on because I think I'm like, you're number
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: one fan. So I have a lot of questions for you. Um.
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: First of all, have you had a bunch of interviews
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: where people going, Hey, Houston, I love you because of
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: your TikTok You know what. I've done a couple radio shows, Um,
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: but uh, this is probably like the first podcast that
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: I've been on, so I'm very excited to talk about it.
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: You know. I love just like binding random interesting stories
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: about college football because I think college football is very
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: unique in the personalities and the weird cultures that just
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: surround the sport. So just all around the edges of
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: college football, there's so much fun stuff to talk about that.
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: You know, an average person who you know watches an
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: Alabama game on a Saturday may not be aware of
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: the insanity that's happening, you know, in a small FCS
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: college in South Carolina, or you know that you know
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: somewhere I was across the country. You know there there
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: there's a coach playing uh quarterback because their school ran
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: out of you know, starting quarterback, so they needed someone
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: with an extra year of eligibility. So that's the kind
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: of stuff that I love, and I was talking about it.
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: So at the corner blitz, I mean, that's his name
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: on TikTok And what do you have a background? I
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: think why? I like what you do. Can you just
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: put your head up there and it's behind you there's
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: like a screenshot or you know you roll through pictures.
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: Do you have a background in anything sports related? Because
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: in the most refreshing way, you don't sound like everybody
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: else that does well. This this is the honest truth
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: of how I got into it. So when I first
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: started dating my now wife and my then girlfriend, you know,
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: eight or so years ago, she was appalled the amount
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: of football that I was watching on a Saturday. So
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: I had to make a deal with her. I was like, listen,
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: if I can find some way to get paid for
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: watching football, then this has to be you know, a
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: happy media and we have to you know that works,
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: so agree to that. So I started, you know, finding
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: blogs to write for, and I wrote for Saturday down South.
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: I wrote, you know, for whoever I could could find
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: to just try to you know, make some use of
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: you know, my knowledge with the game and how much
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: I love college football. And then you know, I started
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: a TikTok channel and and that gave me the most
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: freedom to really talk about what I was most interested in,
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: and you know, I could just post at any time
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: that I wanted and and that's kind of when I
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: started to gain a following and build a little mini
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: community there that that was really fun for me. May
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: or that community, by the way, they don't. So I
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: want to talk about a few things here, and this
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: for the story that you were doing recently. I'm from Arkansas,
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: so I know about this coach a little bit. But
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: the Presbyterian College, will you tell all my friends here
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: and then also the people that listen to this show
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: kind of why you say that's one of the most
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: interesting programs in college football. Yeah. Absolutely, so as you said,
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: this guy Kevin Kelly was high school coaching legend in
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: Arkansas because he had a philosophy where he would never
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: punt the football. He would never a kick connextra point,
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: always go for two. He would always on side kick.
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: It kind of felt like, you know, uh, if you
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: turned a football program into like an n f T
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: or something. It was like Web three point o version
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: of of a football team. You know, he seemed way,
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: you know, a hundred years ahead of what everyone else
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: was doing. You know, when he had support even when
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: he was in in Arkansas as a high school coach,
• 34:20
  Speaker 1: people like Bill Belichick, the biggest names in the sport
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: would drop by and speak to him, and and eventually
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: he got hired by h an FCS program, Presbyterian College,
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: and it was a big deal. I think Bill Belichick
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: actually introduced him at his press conference there. Uh. And
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: so I was aware of him, and I was following
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: him closely in his very first game, his very first
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: ever college football game, where he was keeping that same strategy.
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: He went out in his he wonts seventy two to nothing.
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: And so I so I saw that, and I'm like, okay,
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: you know that this course like that happened in college football.
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: Sometimes he could just be playing a terrible team. Week two,
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: he comes out, his team scores ninety points, and so
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: at this point I'm thinking, you know, I'm thinking, okay,
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: this guy has figured out. You know, within two years,
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: every NFL team is going to be doing what this
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: guy is doing. So that's when I started going all
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: in on on the corner blitz talking about this guy,
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: and I would break down his offense and even his
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: offense he would you know how NFL teams at the
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: end of games, you know, they would just do like
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: the twenty later roles too, you know, as a instead
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: of doing a hail Mary that was like a staple
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: of his offense, he would throw it to a tight end.
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: He would pitch into a running back coming out of
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: the backfield. He would then later rolled across the field
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: and it would just be like on our first intent
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: and the fourth, you know, in the first quarter. So
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: it was a wild team, and so I was very excited.
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: And Week three he was playing his first conference opponent,
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: a team called Campbell, and so I was was going
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: to do a TikTok live during the game. I was
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: very excited for it, uh and by the end of
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: the first quarter he was losing forty two to nothing.
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: He once he started playing common opponents for whatever reason,
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: you know, they just they couldn't get any points. Teams
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: would figure out how to do it. And because of
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: him always going for fourth downs, he wouldn't just lose games.
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: He would lose games by like forty and fifty points
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: because it would just be a snowball effect. And by
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: the end of the year last year, his kids would
• 36:13
  Speaker 1: be coming up to him and begging to punt the
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: football and begging to just do a regular kick because
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: they were, you know, couldn't win a game in conference.
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: So he ended up leaving Presbyterian last year and heading
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: back to Arkansas. UM. But I hope, you know, someone
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: finds a nugget of what he did, you know, and
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: and expounce on that. And you can see it in
• 36:33
  Speaker 1: the NFL too. You saw, you know, the Eagles go
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: for it on you know, any fourth down that's less
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: than five yards, you know they're going they're going for it.
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: And I think there's a seed of that now that
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: that's growing. He won same championships in Arkansas like he
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: was like a legendary high school, like multiples. So I
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: I messaged him when he got the job, and the
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: first two weeks he was done, it was like dang.
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: But then when he started losing bad, I start messaging
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: because I don't know. I don't want to jump in
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: be like, hey, what happened Bundy? But I think you're right,
• 37:03
  Speaker 1: like there's something there. Maybe it's not you know, full
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: balls of the wall like he was going all the way,
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: because you're seeing a lot of these NFL teams and
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: you're seeing like Staley with the Chargers and a lot
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: of these NFL guys who are fourth down where sometimes
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: you go for it. We were kids and never went
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: for it on four down, all right. It was where
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: you never went for two. You never So I thought
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: that was such an interesting TikTok that you did about him.
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: Did you guys know that story at all? Boom, Welcome
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: to town. You're moving in, moving into the corner Blitz.
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: There was a moment in the a f C Championship
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: game where the Chiefs, and it was in the first
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: quarter they ran a price by here in college play.
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: They threw it to Kelsey, who pitched it out to
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: the running back coming out. I don't think it worked
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: very well. But I saw that play and I was like,
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: that's Kevin Kelly, that's Presbyteria in college and that was
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: a staple of his offense. Crazy. So, do you wanna
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: talk about Jane Rashota for a second, the recruit who
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: was supposed to go to Florida and then you know,
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: he was getting all this money and then they're like,
• 37:58
  Speaker 1: well you goodness it and then I think the contract
• 38:02
  Speaker 1: actually I think actually saw part of the contract to
• 38:05
  Speaker 1: can you just from the beginning kind of let us
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: know that story. Yeah. So, so Jake Prashada was, you know,
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: top ten ranked quarterback in the country, you know, as
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: as typical with those kind of guys, every school in
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: the country was after him. Uh. He signed with Miami
• 38:17
  Speaker 1: over the summer, you know, it was kind of one
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: of their top recruits. Then out of nowhere, in the
• 38:22
  Speaker 1: middle of the year, he flipped his recruitment to Florida.
• 38:26
  Speaker 1: He switched to going to Florida, and the rumors was
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: and we found out later that this was true because
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: his contract was revealed. He signed a thirteen million dollar
• 38:37
  Speaker 1: n I L contract with Florida, and I broke down
• 38:39
  Speaker 1: where he would get five hundred thousand dollars as soon
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: as he signed the paperwork, and then he would get
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: every month and like a two hundred seventy five thousand
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: dollar payment, and that would increase if he stayed there
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: for all four years to like four hundred thousand dollars
• 38:53
  Speaker 1: a month. It was, you know, an unbelievable deal that
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: was bigger than anything UH that college football had seen
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: up to that point. So fast forward to National signing day. UH,
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: he's everyone's waiting for him to sign. He hasn't signed yet.
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: Turns out on National Signing Day he gets a letter
• 39:10
  Speaker 1: from UH University of Florida and it's they're like, it's
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: just not not technically University of Florida. It's the booster
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: group that represents UF. But they tell him that the
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: contract that he signed as null and void and he's
• 39:20
  Speaker 1: not gonna be getting any payment. So now this kid
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: has to decide, am I going to sign with Florida
• 39:27
  Speaker 1: or you know, for nothing and hopefully we negotiate the contract,
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: or do I look elsewhere? But it's the eleventh hour
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: of recruiting. He doesn't really have a lot of other options,
• 39:36
  Speaker 1: so he decides to sign with Florida, hopefully renegotiate, and
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: that turns out terribly so within a couple of weeks
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: he has to request to transfer from UF you know,
• 39:47
  Speaker 1: two weeks after he signed a scholarship to play for them. Uh.
• 39:50
  Speaker 1: He then hits the open market. Uh, and he ends
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: up going to Arizona State. And it was just kind
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: of a mess all around and shows pretty much the
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: worst case scenario of the new and i L structure
• 40:01
  Speaker 1: and kind of what recruiting may look like going forward
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: in the future. What I saw too, because I will
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: do in i L deals with players from University of
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: Arkansas for different I have a TV show I haven't promoted. Also,
• 40:12
  Speaker 1: I'm trying to obviously be a supporter of the program.
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: At the same time, I do have them do work
• 40:19
  Speaker 1: for me, you know, even with like clothes and stuff.
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: I have them. But what I saw in that contract
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: for the first time, because except for mine, a lot
• 40:26
  Speaker 1: of the ANIL stuff is not known. It's just people
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: talking about a message, more speculating. But what I saw
• 40:32
  Speaker 1: was that thirteen or whatever the number was, thirteen million
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: dollar deal was over four years, and there were a
• 40:38
  Speaker 1: lot of well, you gotta be here for a year
• 40:40
  Speaker 1: two you gotta be here for your maree. So it
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: really wasn't a thirteen million dollar guaranteed deal, but it
• 40:46
  Speaker 1: was if you play all four years and you continue, then,
• 40:49
  Speaker 1: by the way, it's still a lot of money and awesome,
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: a lot, But it wasn't like the kid went to
• 40:52
  Speaker 1: school and got thirteen million, which by the way, went
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: school go zero million. So so was that the tactic
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: was that the move by for things that I don't
• 40:59
  Speaker 1: think it's collective right more than exactly so. And that's
• 41:03
  Speaker 1: where it gets kind of tricky is because you know,
• 41:06
  Speaker 1: Florida is not allowed the University of Florida is not
• 41:08
  Speaker 1: allowed to negotiate with this guy directly. So it's this
• 41:12
  Speaker 1: third party collective made up of boosters. And so what
• 41:15
  Speaker 1: people think has happened is that his entire contract, especially
• 41:19
  Speaker 1: the upfront payment, was being backed by one booster who
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: at the last second decided he wasn't going to give
• 41:25
  Speaker 1: that money. And then the other thing with the Rashotta
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: story too, is that in the summer he was a
• 41:30
  Speaker 1: top ten ranked prospect. By signing day his he had
• 41:34
  Speaker 1: dropped to a four star player. He was, you know,
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: not in the top eighty overall prospects, And so now
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: you have this guy who you know, is the eighty
• 41:44
  Speaker 1: five rank prospected and paid millions and millions more than
• 41:48
  Speaker 1: any other player, you know, and so I think, you know,
• 41:51
  Speaker 1: they try to find a way to weigh out of
• 41:52
  Speaker 1: the contract, and you know, but this poor kid who
• 41:55
  Speaker 1: thinks he's getting life changing money finds out on the
• 41:58
  Speaker 1: day he's supposed to sign that it all calls through. Yeah,
• 42:00
  Speaker 1: the fact that he was a four star to me
• 42:02
  Speaker 1: when I first read it was like, how's a four
• 42:04
  Speaker 1: star getting this kind of money? But that's what it was.
• 42:06
  Speaker 1: He wasn't he was a five star quarterback. One final
• 42:10
  Speaker 1: topic here and something that I've been following. But I
• 42:13
  Speaker 1: was at the house this weekend and I saw the
• 42:16
  Speaker 1: blurb pop up that said New Mexico State is suspending
• 42:18
  Speaker 1: their basketball program. That there have already been some trouble there,
• 42:22
  Speaker 1: but this was supposedly a different thing. And now I
• 42:24
  Speaker 1: read that it's hazing and hazing incident. Yeah, I saw
• 42:28
  Speaker 1: you talk a little bit about this too, So what
• 42:29
  Speaker 1: do you know about this as of now? Yeah, you know,
• 42:32
  Speaker 1: it's it's a crazy story. And like you said, New
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: Mexico State has been involved, you know, with a player
• 42:37
  Speaker 1: that was involved in a pretty horrible shooting earlier in
• 42:40
  Speaker 1: the year, and so, you know, when news broken, it
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: was a late Friday night news dump that not only
• 42:45
  Speaker 1: you know where they suspending coaches, they were suspending the
• 42:48
  Speaker 1: entire program, you know, with no date of when you know,
• 42:51
  Speaker 1: basketball was going to resume and New Mexico State and
• 42:55
  Speaker 1: we're finding out more information now that it was a
• 42:58
  Speaker 1: hazing incident and a player who who was a victim
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: wanted to report the incident but didn't want to get
• 43:04
  Speaker 1: you didn't want to have any charges pressed against his teammates,
• 43:08
  Speaker 1: and so, uh, you know, when he spoke to the
• 43:10
  Speaker 1: university about it, the president and you know, the board
• 43:13
  Speaker 1: that New Mexico State decided to just suspend the entire
• 43:16
  Speaker 1: program to kind of get a fresh start. And as
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: a result, we've already seen a lot of the members
• 43:22
  Speaker 1: of that team leave, put their name in the transfer portal,
• 43:25
  Speaker 1: and it looks like they're they're gonna have to basically
• 43:27
  Speaker 1: start from serres, basically a death penalty if you're New
• 43:30
  Speaker 1: Mexico State basketball. It was like like balls and but yeah, weird,
• 43:36
  Speaker 1: like yeah, it's like wow, what like why would you
• 43:39
  Speaker 1: even do that, like, we're so well, look, here's the thing.

• 44:14
  Speaker 1: think we'll have them on for sure. Number one is
• 44:16
  Speaker 1: I was gonna talk about Eddie making me lose a
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: bunch of money. We have this thing we need to
• 44:20
  Speaker 1: talk about that. Well, you'll see it'll come back around.
• 44:24
  Speaker 1: We text each other and go, hey, there's a big
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: favorite that's down right now, which is affecting kind of
• 44:31
  Speaker 1: the live the end game spread. So let's say Gonzaga
• 44:36
  Speaker 1: there are twenty point favorite, but halfway through the first
• 44:38
  Speaker 1: half they're losing by twenty two. So it's like Gonzaga
• 44:43
  Speaker 1: plus two and we're like, okay, or whatever it is.
• 44:48
  Speaker 1: If it looks odd, we'll text each other. It's a
• 44:49
  Speaker 1: no brainer. It's a no brainer. Bet Eddie goes Hey,
• 44:52
  Speaker 1: Dukes down like eighteen. I'm gonna go bet on that,
• 44:56
  Speaker 1: just so you know. And I see it and you
• 44:58
  Speaker 1: have to see it right when it texts and hop
• 44:59
  Speaker 1: over and I throw eight hundred bucks on Duke plus eighteen.
• 45:03
  Speaker 1: But what did I say when you send me the
• 45:05
  Speaker 1: eight hundred dollars? I'm like, what are you? Idiot? Like,
• 45:08
  Speaker 1: that's not why I texted you. And my words were
• 45:11
  Speaker 1: very clear. If you're interesting, I'm not mad at you,
• 45:14
  Speaker 1: not eight But anyway, do lost wars? And that I
• 45:17
  Speaker 1: lost my money right sucked? So I didn't need to
• 45:20
  Speaker 1: say much to him. I said, well it sucked. I
• 45:22
  Speaker 1: think what I said was yeah, and he was like, dang,
• 45:24
  Speaker 1: that sucks. I was like, yeah, but that's on me.
• 45:27
  Speaker 1: We tell each other. I bet it, we lost it.
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: That's on me. Ars was playing a couple weeks ago,
• 45:32
  Speaker 1: or maybe a couple of games ago, and I was like, hey, dude, Arkansas,
• 45:34
  Speaker 1: they should win this game, and they lost. I don't
• 45:36
  Speaker 1: know how much you put on, it doesn't matter, it's
• 45:37
  Speaker 1: all relative. I put a lot of money down bucks,
• 45:40
  Speaker 1: that's all. That's a lot of money. So we're even, right,
• 45:47
  Speaker 1: very even. Luckily for me, I made a bunch of
• 45:50
  Speaker 1: money at the Super Bowl. I put seventy five bucks
• 45:54
  Speaker 1: back in my bank account. And I don't ever withdraws.
• 45:56
  Speaker 1: It's just entertainment to me. I don't try to bet
• 45:57
  Speaker 1: money to make money. I bet money, and if I do,
• 45:59
  Speaker 1: that's awesome, and that more to play with. The problem
• 46:01
  Speaker 1: is I kept, like actually made more than that, and
• 46:04
  Speaker 1: kept like two thousand in my account just to dick
• 46:07
  Speaker 1: around with. And so the problem here, and here's the problem.
• 46:09
  Speaker 1: I lost that eight hundred duke and I was just feeling,
• 46:11
  Speaker 1: even though doesn't affect because I wanted this money. I'm like, oh,
• 46:14
  Speaker 1: I still on burning. I gotta burning sensation. And it
• 46:16
  Speaker 1: also it bothers me about the duke game because the
• 46:18
  Speaker 1: burning sensation in my butt all the third all right,
• 46:21
  Speaker 1: And so I was like, okay, I'm gonna, I gotta
• 46:25
  Speaker 1: I gotta switch this duke stuff around. So last night
• 46:27
  Speaker 1: Arkansas playing Texas, Texas A and M, and we were
• 46:30
  Speaker 1: a big dog in Texas A and M. And we
• 46:33
  Speaker 1: were up, and so I was like, let's just do it.
• 46:35
  Speaker 1: I had Arkansas like plus one and a half as
• 46:36
  Speaker 1: we were leading. We were up twelve with like six
• 46:38
  Speaker 1: minutes ago. We end up losing the game. I watched.
• 46:41
  Speaker 1: I lost a thousand bucks that line. Never really they
• 46:44
  Speaker 1: didn't give us a lot of points as the live
• 46:45
  Speaker 1: went on, even when they were up by twelve or whatever.
• 46:48
  Speaker 1: I mean it was, it stayed for the most part
• 46:50
  Speaker 1: at plus one. So I did money line on that one.
• 46:52
  Speaker 1: I lost on that last night too. Well, I don't
• 46:53
  Speaker 1: ever abot a thousand bucks, but I got all this
• 46:55
  Speaker 1: money left from like the super Bowl, which is stupid.
• 46:57
  Speaker 1: I should just put it all on my account because
• 46:58
  Speaker 1: I'm like, well, it's there in his house, an why
• 47:00
  Speaker 1: not just bet it as a thousand bucks on a
• 47:02
  Speaker 1: regularly in basketball game, which is so stupid to me.
• 47:06
  Speaker 1: I was wondering what it was at when I watched.
• 47:08
  Speaker 1: I think they're up twelve a half or whatever too,
• 47:10
  Speaker 1: And it may have been an even half when I
• 47:12
  Speaker 1: think whatever it was, yet, I would never bet a
• 47:14
  Speaker 1: thousand bucks on a random in season basketball game, on
• 47:17
  Speaker 1: a random super Bowl, but I was like, what's there
• 47:20
  Speaker 1: and already put in the money. I'll just bet a thoul.
• 47:22
  Speaker 1: It's just got me. I'm just an idiot. That's where
• 47:24
  Speaker 1: it gets you. Oh, Kevin Bucks, by the way, I'll
• 47:26
  Speaker 1: VENMOI before I leave or T just text me you
• 47:29
  Speaker 1: Kevin one Bucks from the book and the coaches, So
• 47:32
  Speaker 1: he's got that. Um, given some time, though, dude, you
• 47:35
  Speaker 1: just lost a lot of money that has nothing to
• 47:37
  Speaker 1: do with it. And I still have another thousand here
• 47:40
  Speaker 1: that I'm a head, so I'm good. It's like I
• 47:42
  Speaker 1: would have never bet it. I should just put in
• 47:44
  Speaker 1: the bank, which was so stupid to me. So that's
• 47:47
  Speaker 1: what I want to say. Be responsible. Um, just a
• 47:50
  Speaker 1: couple other things before we get out of here. Let's see,
• 47:56
  Speaker 1: I watched the Lakers Pelicans. We record this on Thursday,
• 47:58
  Speaker 1: Thursday afternoon. It's the Lakers Pelicans last night, and the
• 48:01
  Speaker 1: Lakers did win the game. I did because I'm very
• 48:04
  Speaker 1: interested to see what the Lakers do. They're twenty seven
• 48:07
  Speaker 1: and thirty two now, so there are a couple of games,
• 48:11
  Speaker 1: I think buying Utah to get that last play in
• 48:14
  Speaker 1: game seed. But here's what's interesting, because you know they
• 48:16
  Speaker 1: made the trade where they sent off Westbrook and they
• 48:19
  Speaker 1: got d'An Angela Russell. You could go through uh Russell
• 48:23
  Speaker 1: twenty one points. They don't. They didn't have shooters. He
• 48:27
  Speaker 1: made three or five three pointers, which then gives Lebron
• 48:31
  Speaker 1: more room. More Bamba and Lebron. It was really cool
• 48:34
  Speaker 1: to see. I saw a couple of players last night
• 48:36
  Speaker 1: where Lebron was. He's very unselfish anyway, he loves but
• 48:40
  Speaker 1: he wasn't able really to be recently because they have
• 48:42
  Speaker 1: any scores. But it was fun to watch Lebron from
• 48:46
  Speaker 1: the top throw into bomba throw out to Lebron, Lebron
• 48:50
  Speaker 1: drive back to It's a nice little pick and roll
• 48:53
  Speaker 1: with two people that look kind of odd because at
• 48:56
  Speaker 1: all then and Lebron's like a rock and usually it's
• 49:01
  Speaker 1: like a look a point guard type person playing with
• 49:03
  Speaker 1: a four or five when they're but there's I don't
• 49:06
  Speaker 1: think the Lakers are gonna win it, but I did
• 49:08
  Speaker 1: bet them. I'm just telling you. I put a hundred
• 49:10
  Speaker 1: fifty bucks on plus one eighty to make to play
• 49:11
  Speaker 1: one on a random Wednesday to make the playoffs. Not
• 49:15
  Speaker 1: your future, yes, just to make it. What are they
• 49:17
  Speaker 1: right now? Like theyre? I think they're eleven because doesn't
• 49:23
  Speaker 1: ten the final playing seedy. I think they're eleven. You
• 49:26
  Speaker 1: may look that up, um, but they're at one eighty
• 49:28
  Speaker 1: to make the playoffs, and I think they can make
• 49:29
  Speaker 1: the playoffs. I like what I saw based on last
• 49:33
  Speaker 1: night against the Pelicans, right, and oh, what are you
• 49:37
  Speaker 1: sure I didn't see that last night? Yeah, there are
• 49:42
  Speaker 1: only two games out of the ten though. Maybe that's
• 49:44
  Speaker 1: what I saw and just assumed it was eleven since
• 49:46
  Speaker 1: they were that close to it. Whatever, I bet it
• 49:48
  Speaker 1: plus one eight to make the playoffs. Let's go, let's
• 49:50
  Speaker 1: go Lakers, um. And then finally, I'll say this announcement
• 49:55
  Speaker 1: for Monday. I have another announcement, but I'm gonna save
• 49:58
  Speaker 1: this anything and let it live. We're about to go.
• 50:01
  Speaker 1: We're sad to see you go. We're here for six
• 50:03
  Speaker 1: more week before you die. And then I think that's it.
• 50:07
  Speaker 1: We'll Tiger and make the cut. You guys thinking the
• 50:09
  Speaker 1: no no, even though Tiger says that he wouldn't be
• 50:13
  Speaker 1: playing if he didn't think he can win the whole
• 50:14
  Speaker 1: darn thing. I don't think that's true. Does he walk
• 50:16
  Speaker 1: with a cane on the course? He uses his putter?
• 50:19
  Speaker 1: Is that what? Especially when he's walking uphill like that,
• 50:23
  Speaker 1: And I didn't know if he had a cane with
• 50:24
  Speaker 1: him that it was his putter. Yeah, I used his club,
• 50:26
  Speaker 1: especially when he gets out at bunkers. Oh that's tough
• 50:28
  Speaker 1: to see. Okay, Well, I think we're gonna end there.
• 50:32
  Speaker 1: Thanks Coleman, who had to leave early. Looking forward to
• 50:35
  Speaker 1: that interview though. That's that's it's gonna be super cool
• 50:37
  Speaker 1: for him. Let's be honest. He was just driving around
• 50:39
  Speaker 1: paying his own money, buying nosebleed seats. But he's one
• 50:44
  Speaker 1: good on the show, and then two he now identify
• 50:47
  Speaker 1: tickets and you're going to be coaches for us. Let's go.
• 50:50
  Speaker 1: That's awesome. Final thought, Eddie, I want to bring some
• 50:53
  Speaker 1: up to you real quick. So something that made me
• 50:54
  Speaker 1: really upset last week. I'm the head coach of the
• 50:57
  Speaker 1: Laker Bones, my son's nine year old beast ball to
• 51:00
  Speaker 1: which I own, which you are a sponsor. The owner.
• 51:02
  Speaker 1: Uh Kevin here is the assistant coach, and last week
• 51:07
  Speaker 1: we were up by twelve points. Seventeen whatever. We're up
• 51:12
  Speaker 1: by seventeen points at the half, and it's legal in
• 51:15
  Speaker 1: our league to do a full court press on defense
• 51:19
  Speaker 1: the second half, not the first half. Second half. We've
• 51:21
  Speaker 1: seen a lot of success when we do a trap,
• 51:24
  Speaker 1: you know, in the inbound so I just said, let's
• 51:26
  Speaker 1: not give in, so you trapp whomever the inbound past
• 51:30
  Speaker 1: goes to full court? Correct, got it, full court. And
• 51:32
  Speaker 1: we've seen a lot of success. And I'm like, the
• 51:34
  Speaker 1: last three games we're on a heater, so I said,
• 51:36
  Speaker 1: let's go, let's keep it going, keep the intensity going,
• 51:39
  Speaker 1: let's do a full court trap. Assistant here steps and goes, hey, coach,
• 51:43
  Speaker 1: I think we should just back up a little bit.
• 51:44
  Speaker 1: We're up by seven. Team, I got no. I hear
• 51:47
  Speaker 1: Vikings colts coming up. I said, no, I don't, I don't.
• 51:49
  Speaker 1: I don't think. So he's like, no, I think we should, like,
• 51:51
  Speaker 1: you know, let's not rub it in their faces that
• 51:53
  Speaker 1: we're being in my seventeen points fine, Assistant coach said, so, boys,
• 51:57
  Speaker 1: forget what I said. Let's just go with get back
• 51:59
  Speaker 1: pro defense. Don't let him score. They come back and
• 52:03
  Speaker 1: score ten on us right away. I look at coach
• 52:06
  Speaker 1: and I'm like, seriously, so I over I hope did
• 52:09
  Speaker 1: the override and said, all right, back to what I
• 52:10
  Speaker 1: said initially, full court trap, let's go. We ended up
• 52:13
  Speaker 1: winning the game. But should I thought they're gonna come
• 52:15
  Speaker 1: back and win. Should this guy step in and say
• 52:18
  Speaker 1: that to the head coach? Is that or is that
• 52:20
  Speaker 1: just straight just disrespectful? I think that's his job, actually,
• 52:24
  Speaker 1: but it's your job to make the final call. I
• 52:26
  Speaker 1: think in assistant coach should actually give his input based
• 52:29
  Speaker 1: on his eyes and ears and also you know his
• 52:33
  Speaker 1: coaching ethics. You don't want to run up to score
• 52:35
  Speaker 1: if you really think you're gonna by forty. You't think
• 52:37
  Speaker 1: I give a crap. I want to kick that team
• 52:39
  Speaker 1: because you've been losing every game. That's true, that's true.
• 52:42
  Speaker 1: I felt that. That's very true. But I do think
• 52:44
  Speaker 1: listen to your assistance is great. I try to listen
• 52:46
  Speaker 1: to you guys will do the show. I want to
• 52:47
  Speaker 1: know what you think, what we can do. Yeah, But
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: then you always go like, stupid idea. Now I don't either.
• 52:50
  Speaker 1: Sometimes I go most of your ideas are stupid, But
• 52:52
  Speaker 1: that was not so. Yes, it is his job to
• 52:57
  Speaker 1: recommend that, and it's your job to finally make the
• 52:59
  Speaker 1: decision to do it or not. And you did exactly that,
• 53:01
  Speaker 1: and finally you went, never mind, we're going back to
• 53:02
  Speaker 1: we're trapping. So in the end you both did right
• 53:05
  Speaker 1: and you won. We did win. But I like it
• 53:07
  Speaker 1: that you listened well, I mean it was like all right,
• 53:09
  Speaker 1: and I don't like it you overruled it once he
• 53:10
  Speaker 1: wasn't working. He said that he was in that position before,
• 53:13
  Speaker 1: so he would appreciate it if the team would have
• 53:15
  Speaker 1: let up a little bit. And so I said, all right, fine,
• 53:17
  Speaker 1: we'll try it and finally teach your kids to trap better. Yeah,
• 53:20
  Speaker 1: about thirty So it didn't matter. That's Kevin Mine is.
• 53:24
  Speaker 1: The NFL is the greatest reality show that we have
• 53:27
  Speaker 1: right now. Even after the super Bowl, everything goes down
• 53:30
  Speaker 1: and Juju tweets out on Valentine's Day to Bradberry, Hey,
• 53:35
  Speaker 1: what is something about holding right forever? Something like that,
• 53:38
  Speaker 1: and they VAL's card and then you have a J
• 53:41
  Speaker 1: Brown coming back and everybody, even Patrick Mahomes had to
• 53:44
  Speaker 1: say something funny. It's just such a great reality show,
• 53:46
  Speaker 1: the NFL, and I love it. Yeah, that's a good one.
• 53:49
  Speaker 1: It's it's like they do all the funny Valentine cards
• 53:51
  Speaker 1: as a kid, and there would be like characters and
• 53:53
  Speaker 1: be like, I love you all the way to the moon,
• 53:55
  Speaker 1: and it's like an astronaut dumb. I did watch NFL films.
• 53:59
  Speaker 1: They're up though the holding call, and the more you
• 54:01
  Speaker 1: see it from the different angles it was, it was
• 54:04
  Speaker 1: definitely a holding call, like as soon as he turned,
• 54:07
  Speaker 1: it was from behind. Actually you can see and he
• 54:09
  Speaker 1: you call that. If you see it from behind, you
• 54:12
  Speaker 1: call that ten out of ten times. So we saw
• 54:15
  Speaker 1: the angle to where at first we were just looking
• 54:17
  Speaker 1: at the left hand instead of the right. And then
• 54:19
  Speaker 1: we went back to the beginning of the clip of
• 54:20
  Speaker 1: the right hand grabs the jersey from behind. You can't
• 54:22
  Speaker 1: really tell we you can see a little bit the
• 54:23
  Speaker 1: NFL films version, and again I want a lot of
• 54:26
  Speaker 1: money off this, so I'm standing by it, so I'm
• 54:27
  Speaker 1: not even but the NFL film for you do see
• 54:29
  Speaker 1: him from behind, really grab and if you're that ref,
• 54:32
  Speaker 1: you throw the flag on that immediately, even if it
• 54:35
  Speaker 1: was late in the game. It was such a hold.
• 54:38
  Speaker 1: Thank you. What are you watching? Inside the NFL and scrolling.
• 54:43
  Speaker 1: NFL Films had posted a clip of it. I wasn't
• 54:45
  Speaker 1: I didn't Google search NFL. Yeah, they're all those are awesome,
• 54:50
  Speaker 1: so good. My final thing to say is there's this
• 54:52
  Speaker 1: app called eighteen Birdies and we use it when we
• 54:55
  Speaker 1: go off with each other or just in general, and
• 54:57
