  Welcome to Between Two Generations, a father-ston sports podcast, because raising a son is tough.

  But debating sports with me, now that's even tougher.
• 0:18
  All right, welcome back to this week's edition of Between Two Generations, a Father Son's Sports Pod.
• 0:26
  Back with the all-star of the show, my man Briggs Wright.

  Let's get right into it.
• 0:32
  I'm gonna here's what's on our agenda today.

  We are gonna hit y'all first with our cold open hot take of the week, moving to the top stories of the week.
• 0:41

  So here we go.
• 0:53
  Hot take.
• 0:53
  We're just getting right into this, buddy.
• 0:55
  All right.
• 0:55
  Now, Briggs, you have no idea what I'm about to hit you with and say about this because I'm I'm actually passionate about this one.
• 1:00
  Y'all could I I am a hundred percent right with um with what I'm about to say.
• 1:06
  Okay, yo, okay.
• 1:07
  Okay, here we go.
• 1:07
  Yo, okay.
• 1:08
  Cold open hot take of the week.
• 1:10
  Here it is in the NFL.
• 1:12
  The quarterback kneel down at the end of the game is cowardly, and it is running the game of football.
• 1:20
  You want me to tell you why?
• 1:22
  I think this is the most useless hot take ever.
• 1:26
  It's not.
• 1:27
  Here's why.
• 1:27
  Okay.
• 1:28
  So let's just talk about it's the most boring play in sports.
• 1:32
  The most boring play in sports.
• 1:33
  Listen, the quarterback kneel down.
• 1:35
  You've got 70,000 fans in the stadium, millions watching at home, and the grand finale is a guy taking a dang knee.
• 1:43
  A freaking knee.
• 1:44
  Imagine if the NBA ended games by dribbling the ball in the corner for the last two minutes.
• 1:48
  That's the same thing.
• 1:50
  Just dribbling the ball.
• 1:50
  You gotta lead, so you just dribble the ball in the corner.
• 1:52
  You know what I mean?
• 1:53
  It's so lame.
• 1:54
  Imagine if baseball just said, well, you know, we're up by three, so let's all go home.
• 1:58
  No, I paid for football.
• 2:00
  So one last Hail Mary, a fumble.
• 2:02
  I don't care.
• 2:03
  It's the it's the lamest thing in sports.
• 2:04
  Let's say you got a close game.
• 2:06
  It's like you're up by three, the other team just has a turnover on downs because they had to go for it, but then the other team, you got a minute left and no timeouts, so they kneel it.
• 2:14
  Are you kidding me?
• 2:14
  Oh, are you talking about like before halftime?
• 2:16
  I'm talking about I'm talking about even to end the game.
• 2:18
  Dad, even to end the game, that end the game.
• 2:21
  I agree with before halftime, but no, Dad, yeah, you want to risk players getting injured.
• 2:26
  They're not that's BS.
• 2:28
  They're risking in the the entire time.
• 2:30
  It is the they should get rid of the rule where you can kneel the clock out.
• 2:34
  I hate it.
• 2:35
  No more kneels allowed.
• 2:36
  You got to run a play.
• 2:37
  You have to run a play.
• 2:38
  I don't think it's that dumb though.
• 2:40
  Dude, I paid for football.
• 2:41
  I want one last Hail Mary, a fumble, a miracle, a mascot running onto the field.
• 2:45
  I don't even care.
• 2:46
  Something.
• 2:46
  Instead, it's the offense forms like a little friendship circle, the quarterback falls over, and everyone pretends that's entertainment.
• 2:53
  The kneel down is not football.
• 2:55
  You've also been already watching 59 probably minutes of football.
• 2:58
  No, and and you need to go to the last second.
• 3:00
  You need to go.
• 3:01
  NBA, there those guys are pushing.
• 3:03
  If they're down four, they're not Are you talking about you saying the NBA is pushing it?
• 3:09
  No, of course not.
• 3:11
  No, I would never I would I would never disgrace our show.
• 3:14
  This is the one of the most late, this is this is the one of the most lame as takes I've ever had.
• 3:18
  No, because listen, this is why, dude.
• 3:20
  No one has no one has a problem with that.
• 3:21
  I'm I'm fine.
• 3:22
  Are you kidding me?
• 3:23
  Every time I'm watching the game, the game is still within reach.
• 3:26
  Okay, here let me kick a scenario at you.
• 3:28
  All right.
• 3:29
  Joe Burrow against the Chiefs and and your your favorite guy, Patrick Mahomes.
• 3:34
  Joe Burrow is down three, and they two minutes left in the game, one minute left, and they have a turnover on downs because they got to go for it and fourth, and they don't make it.
• 3:44
  So now Patrick Mahomes has the ball on like the 40-yard line, right?
• 3:48
  Yeah, then.
• 3:48
  So what does he do?
• 3:49
  He kneels it to win the game with one minute left.
• 3:52
  No, he has got to run that it should be absolutely done away with.
• 3:56
  No, I think.
• 3:56
  As a fan, you get to that moment and you're like, oh, they're just gonna kneel it, you're you're done, you're deflated.
• 4:01
  As you watch 59 seconds, 58 seconds, 57 seconds.
• 4:05
  It is the most demoral.
• 4:07
  I hate it.
• 4:07
  I absolutely hate it, and I have ever since I was your age.
• 4:10
  I'm being serious.
• 4:11
  I'm being serious.
• 4:12
  It's not football.
• 4:12
  It's it's football's version of putting the movie credits before the ending.
• 4:16
  Like, imagine this like you're watching the fireworks show, and then the ending of the fireworks, you got the grand finale, and then at the end, you turn on a flashlight.
• 4:24
  That's what this is.
• 4:25
  That's what the QB kneel down is.
• 4:27
  It is turning on a flashlight at the end of an amazing fireworks show.
• 4:31
  Yeah, because you already watched the fireworks that I mean.
• 4:34
  Yeah, I said at some point.
• 4:35
  I mean, but it's just so dumb.
• 4:38
  You watch the fireworks and you're just watching it, and then all of a sudden, I've been the most amazing moment.
• 4:44
  Flashlight.
• 4:45
  I've been laughing this whole time by like because I just think this is just the most useless, unhelpful hot take of all time.
• 4:51
  No, I guarantee you, everybody listening to this agrees with me.
• 4:54
  The QB kneel down isn't football.
• 4:56
  It's the worst.
• 4:57
  No, no, let me tell you why this is just this is just stupid.
• 5:00
  Okay.
• 5:01
  If you if you're Joe Burrow and you already and you didn't go and you didn't, you know, win or get the touchdown or whatever to win the game or go to overtime or whatever, that means you already lost.
• 5:13
  So I mean I don't know, you just like you just lost.
• 5:17
  I mean I mean I think I just think it's a form of victory.
• 5:20
  I mean, I I don't have any problem with it.
• 5:22
  If you're within a one-score game, eight points or less, you get penalized if you kneel.
• 5:26
  It's an automatic dude.
• 5:28
  Okay, here it is.
• 5:29
  Automatic turnover.
• 5:30
  If you kneel, if you kneel the final two minutes of a game, and it's within one score, you get penalized, it's a turnover.
• 5:37
  It automatically goes to the other team, 100%.
• 5:39
  That's so strange.
• 5:40
  That's my rule.
• 5:40
  I should be the commissioner of the NFL.
• 5:42
  No, dad.
• 5:42
  Tell me I'm wrong.
• 5:43
  Huh?
• 5:43
  Tell me I'm wrong.
• 5:44
  You're 100%.
• 5:47
  I just I don't I don't I don't think I don't have a problem with that.
• 5:51
  I feel like it's just a normal form of victory, and like, you know, the game's already been done, the game's already been played, and that's fair.
• 5:59
  A lot of people are gonna agree with you.
• 6:00
  So I'll I'll tell you what, you listen into our show, find us on uh our Instagram, uh hit us up on our uh Apple Podcast, Spotify, let us know what you think, call, text us directly.
• 6:11
  Um I'm telling you, the QB kneel down.
• 6:13
  I bet you I got more people that agree with me than don't.
• 6:17
  I agree with you before halftime, but no, end of the game.
• 6:19
  I don't even care about halftime.
• 6:21
  End of the game.
• 6:21
  End of the game.
• 6:22
  That's when it matters.
• 6:23
  That's when it matters.
• 6:24
  Yeah, but you already won.
• 6:25
  I mean, that's so slightly that are you saying that if it's what?
• 6:29
  Okay, let me give you a different scenario.
• 6:30
  If it's 45 to 20, if it's like 52 to 14, your team's already blown out.
• 6:36
  That's fine.
• 6:37
  Yeah, okay, yeah, but then if you're enforcing the rule of a turnover, then they have to run in a K and then No no no.
• 6:43
  And if the score is within one one possession, one score possession.
• 6:46
  So eight points or if the score is within eight points or less, because if you score a touchdown and go for two, you tie it.
• 6:51
  Okay, anything nine or above, you're allowed to kneel.
• 6:53
  Anything eight or less, it is a severe penalty if you kneel.
• 6:59
  Severe.
• 6:59
  Like I'm talking a turnover automatically.
• 7:01
  Like it's basically the same as giving a fumble to the other team.
• 7:05
  I'm telling you, let's put it up for a vote.
• 7:06
  Let's put it up for a vote.
• 7:08
  All right, let us know what you think.
• 7:09
  You know, you know what one of my favorite parts of our uh show is, buddy?
• 7:12
  What?
• 7:13
  Our music between our segments.
• 7:14
  So cue the music, let the beat drop.
• 7:24
  All right, we are back.
• 7:26
  Buddy, that was fun.
• 7:27
  Um we're gonna come back to that that segment again.
• 7:29
  On to the next two, this just in, next segment.
• 7:32
  This just in.
• 7:33
  Top sports stories of the week.
• 7:34
  Briggs, what you got?
• 7:36
  Um, well, obviously, the it's most obvious storylines of the week, which is the Miles Garrett trade to the to Big deal.
• 7:42
  The Browns and the Rams, and then A.J.
• 7:44
  Brown to the Patriots for you know, draft picks and stuff like that.
• 7:48
  Anyways.
• 7:49
  Yeah.
• 7:49
  Big trades.
• 7:50
  Oh, yeah, massive trades.
• 7:51
  And then did you hear about Aaron Donald maybe coming back?
• 7:54
  I did see that.
• 7:54
  Is that like truth, or is that just somebody put put something on social media?
• 7:58
  Do you know?
• 7:58
  Well I I saw a little thing on on ASP and I was like, Dan Orlovsky thinks it's more than likely his gut is telling him that like Aaron Donald would probably come.
• 8:07
  Can you imagine Aaron McAaron Donald and Miles and Miles Garrett on that line?
• 8:11
  It's it's game over for the rest of the league.
• 8:12
  I mean, unless it unless someone gets injured, they're winning the Super Bowl.
• 8:17
  Yeah.
• 8:18
  You know, but um Miles Garrett to the Rams and Aaron Donald may be returning.
• 8:22
  And um look, the Rams, I obviously every year they're a Super Bowl contender, but this this year I'm probably putting them down for the Super Bowl.
• 8:32
  How could you not?
• 8:33
  And I don't know, especially if like I I would do it even if Aaron Dawn c didn't duh duh doesn't come, but if he does, I mean that just like you know.
• 8:43
  That's a good point.
• 8:44
  Can you imagine that?
• 8:46
  I'm I'm so grateful though that this happened.
• 8:48
  Because now Joe Burrow doesn't have to deal with Miles and Garrett injuring him every freaking game.
• 8:53
  That's right.
• 8:55
  And then Aaron uh I and then Miles Garrett has in twelve in ten games that he's played Joe Burrow, he sacked him twelve times.
• 9:02
  Oh that's the most out of like any defensive player to quarterback ratio.
• 9:08
  So Joe Burrow is probably the most scared of Miles Garrett.
• 9:10
  I know.
• 9:10
  Yeah.
• 9:11
  That you know it'd be so funny if Joe Burrow posted something on social media that was celebrating the trade.
• 9:15
  No, I know.
• 9:16
  That'd be so that'd be so good.
• 9:17
  Who can blame him?
• 9:18
  Yeah.
• 9:19
  I guarantee you he was, like, with his with his like this buddies.
• 9:22
  I'll bet him and Jamar Chase to immediately text each other, like, dude, let's go.
• 9:26
  Thank goodness.
• 9:27
  Yeah.
• 9:28
  That's such a good point.
• 9:28
  I didn't realize that's a good stat, buddy.
• 9:30
  Yeah.
• 9:31
  They're so loaded, honestly.
• 9:32
  Like on offense, you have Matthew Stafford, Kyron Williams, Puka Nakua, Defonta Adams, a solid Colby Parkinson at tight end, yeah, and they always have a decent O-line.
• 9:42
  I feel like Kobe Parkinson at tight end is underrated.
• 9:44
  No, I know.
• 9:45
  On defense, Miles Garrett, possibly Aaron Donald, Byron Young, Kobe Turner, and Trent McDuffie, an all-star cornerback.
• 9:52
  And a and that's a score.
• 9:53
  And a deep, young, talented defense.
• 9:56
  And who can forget their backup quarterback, rookie sensation Ty Simpson?
• 10:01
  Just kidding.
• 10:01
  Bro.
• 10:03
  Dude, that is a stacked squad.
• 10:04
  So they they had to give up what so Ger uh Gerard Verse.
• 10:08
  And a bunch of draft picks.
• 10:10
  I think 20 next year's first round pick, 2028 second round pick, and then 2029 third round pick.
• 10:16
  So they're clearly going all in this year.
• 10:18
  Yeah, for sure.
• 10:18
  Well, it's also, I think they're thinking it might be Matthew Stabbard's last year, and that's this is obviously a um, you know, a uh a clue that it's probably Matthew Stabbard's last year.
• 10:28
  That's a good point.
• 10:29
  I'm in I'm in for that because I actually really you can't not not respect the Rams.
• 10:34
  You know what I mean?
• 10:34
  Sean McVay's a great coach, great culture builder.
• 10:37
  General manager, I mean their their front office is freaking awesome.
• 10:42
  I wish they had they were in Cincinnati's office.
• 10:44
  So I'm actually happy about this.
• 10:45
  Like this is Oh, yeah, for sure.
• 10:46
  You know what's funny to me is we're in the peak of oh wait, did you know?
• 10:51
  Did you know?
• 10:52
  Did I know what?
• 10:53
  That uh of the top stories of the week, did you even know that it's the hockey Stanley Cup final?
• 10:58
  Uh huh.
• 10:59
  Did you even know that?
• 11:00
  No.
• 11:00
  Does anybody even care?
• 11:02
  Not at all.
• 11:02
  I think actually people do care, honestly.
• 11:04
  Yeah, hockey is actually pretty cool.
• 11:06
  Like we should we should start getting into it, to be honest with you.
• 11:08
  No, we shouldn't.
• 11:09
  Okay, fair.
• 11:10
  But what I was gonna say is it's so funny to me because we have an epic NBA final, Spurs and Knicks.
• 11:15
  And that's I don't say epic, but it's cool.
• 11:17
  It's finally gonna be a good NBA final since we've had a bad year.
• 11:20
  You know what I mean?
• 11:20
  Like we've had bad years in the past, but now we got two teams that play hard.
• 11:23
  We're gonna come back to that in a little bit.
• 11:24
  But here's my point, though.
• 11:26
  The NFL dominates, dude.
• 11:27
  So check this out.
• 11:28
  Right now we should be talking about Spurs, Knicks, and even the World Cup coming up in ten days.
• 11:32
  But instead, the past two days, we've been talking about the NFL.
• 11:35
  An NFL trade.
• 11:36
  Not even a game.
• 11:37
  Not a game, a trade.
• 11:39
  See what it did there with that Allen Iverson.
• 11:42
  Not a game.
• 11:43
  Practice.
• 11:44
  We talking practice.
• 11:45
  Yeah, we talking trades.
• 11:46
  Yeah, okay.
• 11:47
  Yeah, okay.
• 11:47
  Yeah, okay, man.
• 11:48
  Okay, let's go with that.
• 11:50
  Anyway, keep going, buddy.
• 11:51
  This is good stuff.
• 11:52
  And then honestly, that's yeah, I mean the Rams, man.
• 11:57
  And if they get Aaron Donald, I they're winning the Super Bowl.
• 12:00
  I don't I I know it'll be it'll be Cincinnati and uh and the Rams.
• 12:04
  Ooh, a repeat.
• 12:05
  Uh it would be no a rematch.
• 12:07
  Rematch, that's what I mean.
• 12:07
  Yeah.
• 12:08
  But the Bengals will be winning that one.
• 12:09
  My man, let's go.
• 12:10
  Let's go, Burrow.
• 12:11
  No, they won't.
• 12:12
  If Aaron Donald is chasing him and Miles Garrett.
• 12:15
  I I think the Bengals make the playoffs, but there's no way they're winning the Super Bowl.
• 12:18
  Yeah.
• 12:19
  I like it.
• 12:19
  That's tough, dude.
• 12:21
  I I have faith.
• 12:22
  I have faith in my guy, Joe Burrow.
• 12:24
  Good stuff.
• 12:24
  And that was Top Stories of the Week.
• 12:26
  No, no, we saw one more.
• 12:27
  Oh, my bad.
• 12:28
  My bad.
• 12:29
  We got the AJ Brown trade.
• 12:30
  Oh, yeah, hit us with that one.
• 12:32
  Honestly, both teams was pretty good.
• 12:36
  I think I honestly like the Patriots one a little bit more.
• 12:39
  Because they didn't really give up that much.
• 12:41
  I only like a few draft picks, I think, and maybe a first round pick next year or something like that.
• 12:45
  But um the Patriots got an AJ AJ Brown.
• 12:49
  He he's he's weird to me sometimes.
• 12:53
  Like he's obviously I think he I think he could be a top three receiver in the league, but he's just like up and down earns.
• 12:59
  He's he's like a mountain, you know?
• 13:02
  He's great.
• 13:03
  He's at he's at its peak and then like a mountain.
• 13:08
  Like like a waxing poetic over there.
• 13:11
  Or or maybe like like a chair.
• 13:14
  It goes up and down and up and down.
• 13:18
  Or or or or or maybe maybe like a lamp.
• 13:21
  Like a lamp.
• 13:22
  Like it like a like a lamp.
• 13:23
  Like a lamp.
• 13:24
  Like a lamp.
• 13:25
  Like a lamp up and down.
• 13:26
  I love your analogies.
• 13:28
  You're like Colin Cowherd over there with your analysis.
• 13:30
  Like I I think we're just gonna have to watch and see what happens.
• 13:32
  Yeah.
• 13:33
  Well, A.J.
• 13:34
  Brown.
• 13:34
  So in well with the Eagles, A.J.
• 13:36
  Brown, he has he he's never really been paired up with a true pure pocket passer.
• 13:43
  Because with the Titans it was Ryan Tannehill, not great.
• 13:45
  Not great.
• 13:46
  Philly, Jalen Hurts, not great.
• 13:48
  I don't I don't know.
• 13:49
  Now he's gonna have Drake May thrown to him.
• 13:50
  So his stats could pop.
• 13:51
  I don't know that it'll necessarily mean the Patriots are gonna be a great team, but I do think AJ's stats will be better.
• 13:56
  And the Patriots have a way harder schedule.
• 13:58
  Way harder this year this year.
• 14:00
  Last year they had the e the like the easiest one in the past 25 years.
• 14:03
  Yeah.
• 14:04
  Then they got smoked.
• 14:05
  Everybody got smoked by Seattle.
• 14:07
  That Seattle squad last year, they were they were tough.
• 14:10
  They were tough.
• 14:10
  I'm gonna be interested to see how Seattle does this year.
• 14:12
  But I just don't know if Sandra can do what he did last year, so maybe not.
• 14:16
  But AJ Brown, though, over there, it's it's gonna be fun to watch.
• 14:19
  I agree.

  Anything else?
• 14:22
  Uh no.

  Okay.

  Cue my favorite music.
• 14:27
  I have one more hot take.
• 14:28
  This this guy in my head, okay?
• 14:30
  Okay.
• 14:31
  The Cincinnati Bengals are winning the Super Bowl.
• 14:36
  You want to fade out to that?
• 14:37
  Uh no.
• 14:38
  Let's go.
• 14:38
  Joe Burrow is the best ever, and he's gonna dominate everybody.
• 14:42
  17-0.
• 14:44
  And then we're gonna go 20-0 to the Super Bowl.
• 14:46
  Beat the Rams 70 to 0.
• 14:49
  Wait, wrong one, wrong sound.
• 14:52
  No, wrong sound still.
• 14:54
  No.
• 14:54
  There it is.
• 14:56
  There it is.
• 14:56
  Yeah, you have the crowd cheering with you.
• 14:59
  Go, Joe Burrow.
• 15:01
  Wow, we really gotta learn our sound effect.
• 15:03
  I know that button was there.
• 15:04
  I do that on the computer.
• 15:05
  All right, cue the real music.
• 15:06
  Here's drop the beat.
• 15:16
  Okay, now it's time to play our game.
• 15:18
  Guess the sports year.
• 15:20
  Here is where I give Briggs a bunch of stats and highlights of a specific year, and it's Briggs' job to guess the correct year.
• 15:26
  You ready, buddy?
• 15:28
  Uh yeah, I'm all right.
• 15:29
  Let's roll.
• 15:30
  You're listening on.

  See if you can get it right as well.
• 15:32
  Here we go.
• 15:37
  All right, the year is I ain't gonna tell you yet.
• 15:40
  One of the most exciting and stat heavy years in recent sports history.
• 15:43
  There's a little cue.
• 15:45
  Clue.
• 15:45
  Recent.
• 15:46
  Okay.
• 15:46
  How recent though?
• 15:47
  I could be tricking ya.
• 15:48
  Offering iconic moments across the NBA, NFL, and Major League Based.
• 15:52
  You ready?
• 15:53
  Mm-hmm.
• 15:54
  Okay, here we go.
• 15:54
  Here's the clues.
• 15:55
  Uh, I'm not gonna give you the first clue because that's a little too obvious, but here we go.
• 15:58
  A Legends Farewell in his final NBA game.
• 16:02
  A 37-year-old Lakers superstar dropped an unbelievable six.
• 16:07
  This is the so easy.
• 16:08
  You gotta guess the year, though.
• 16:09
  Huh?
• 16:10
  You gotta guess the year.
• 16:10
  I think I need another year.
• 16:12
  Oh, oh, oh, oh.
• 16:13
  I haven't even finished the first stat.
• 16:15
  You can guess.
• 16:16
  Go ahead.
• 16:16
  Let's see if you're ready.
• 16:17
  Okay, I think it's 2014 and 2016.
• 16:19
  Well, you gotta pick one.
• 16:21
  You gotta pick one.
• 16:22
  I'm not even gonna tell you if one of them's right.
• 16:24
  You're in a general ballpark, though, I will tell you that.
• 16:27
  Okay, but the legend, let me just finish this.
• 16:29
  Okay, yeah.
• 16:29
  Dropped an unbelievable 60 points on 15 shot attempts.
• 16:33
  Yes, that sounds exactly like Kobe Bryant.
• 16:35
  Yeah.
• 16:36
  In one game.
• 16:36
  That was against the Jazz.
• 16:37
  Okay.
• 16:38
  But here's another one.
• 16:39
  The curse is broken.
• 16:40
  The Chicago Cubs won their first World Series title in 108 years.
• 16:45
  Are these like different years like each or something?
• 16:46
  No, no, this one's all one year.
• 16:48
  Oh.
• 16:48
  Just different sports, right?
• 16:49
  So the Cubs won the World Series, defeating the Cleveland Indians in the thrilling rain-delayed game seven.
• 16:54
  That is a helmy I don't know.
• 16:57
  Okay, the 72-point quarterback.
• 17:00
  What?
• 17:01
  A standout Louisville quarterback who would go on to win the Heisman Trophy that year accounted for an ACC record 51 total touchdowns.
• 17:10
  That's obviously Lamar Jackson.
• 17:11
  I know who I know what year it was.
• 17:13
  Okay, what year?
• 17:14
  2016.
• 17:14
  2016, my man, you got it.
• 17:16
  That's right.
• 17:16
  Alright, so I was gonna hit you with this other one.
• 17:18
  The 3-1 comeback.
• 17:20
  We hate this, but a superstar player ended a 52-year championship drought for two leagues.
• 17:24
  If you would have gave me that, that would have been.
• 17:26
  I know.
• 17:26
  That's why I skipped that one because I knew you had that.
• 17:28
  Okay, I got one more year.
• 17:30
  That does not make LeBron the goat.
• 17:31
  LeBron fans, he's not the goat.
• 17:34
  Just get the out of ring, get the out of ring, throw in the trash, put it in the fire.
• 17:38
  That's right.
• 17:38
  Put the fire, put it on a plane, and fly the plane to Saturn or whatever.
• 17:44
  He's not the goat.
• 17:45
  Just stop.
• 17:46
  I love it.
• 17:47
  Roast him.
• 17:48
  Gosh, we can't stand it.
• 17:49
  All right, here we go.
• 17:50
  Next year.
• 17:50
  Next year.
• 17:50
  You ready?
• 17:51
  Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 17:51
  Alright, this year is absolutely perfect for a guest of the year game.
• 17:55
  This has iconic upsets, historic dynasties, and mind-boggling stats.
• 18:00
  Okay, here we go.
• 18:01
  Start off with football.
• 18:03
  The underdog.
• 18:04
  No, that one's gonna be too easy.
• 18:06
  No, no, no.
• 18:07
  Okay, I'm gonna start off with the college king.
• 18:09
  The Ohio State Buckeyes captured the national championship in a thrilling double overtime Fiesta Bowl, taking down the heavily favored Miami Hurricanes.
• 18:19
  The NFL rushing leader, Miami Dolphins running back, Ricky Williams, played at Texas, yeah.
• 18:26
  Led the league with a monstrous rushing season of 1,853 yards.
• 18:31
  Okay, now let's move to basketball.
• 18:33
  I'm gonna skip the obvious one.
• 18:35
  I'm not gonna tell you who won the Super Bowl that year because you'd get it.
• 18:38
  Basketball.
• 18:39
  The Ooh, this one, this one might actually give it to you.
• 18:41
  The three-peats.
• 18:43
  The Los Angeles Lakers swept the New Jersey Nets to win their third consecutive NBA championship.
• 18:49
  The finals MVP Shaquille O'Neal won his third consecutive NBA Finals MVP.
• 18:56
  College Hoops, the Maryland, the Maryland Terrapins beat the Indiana Hoosiers to claim the NCAA men's basketball championship.
• 19:04
  Let's go to baseball.
• 19:06
  The streak, the oath, this is when the Oakland Athletics, managed by Art Howe, made baseball history by reeling off an incredible 20-game winning streak.
• 19:15
  A record that stood in the American League for 15 years.
• 19:18
  The World Series.
• 19:20
  In an epic all-wild card World Series, the Anaheim Angels rallied from a 3-2-series deficit to defeat the San Francisco Giants in seven games.
• 19:31
  Home run leader, Texas Rangers shortstop Alex Rodriguez led the entire major league with 57 home runs.
• 19:40
  Okay, here we go.
• 19:41
  Here's another one.
• 19:42
  The Winter Olympics.
• 19:44
  This is gonna be a big hint if you know your Utah history.
• 19:48
  Because the historic winter games in Salt Lake City were held featuring an underdog 17-year-old skater named Sarah Hughes, who shocked the world by rising from fourth place to win the ladies' figure skating gold medal.
• 20:01
  And in Bob's sled history, do you have any guesses yet?
• 20:05
  Yeah, I can't even know.
• 20:06
  Okay, what do you what do you got?
• 20:08
  2002.
• 20:09
  Dude, you nailed it.
• 20:10
  What finally gave it away?
• 20:12
  What was the stat?
• 20:12
  It was the liquor one.
• 20:14
  Oh, okay, got it.
• 20:15
  Well, I was gonna Well, it was the Laker one, but it was a 2002 season, but it ended in 2003.
• 20:22
  So the underdog Super Bowl is the one that I was gonna lead off with, but you got this.
• 20:26
  Check this out.
• 20:27
  The 14-point underdog New England Patriots won their first ever Super Bowl.
• 20:31
  Oh yeah, they did.
• 20:32
  Defeating the heavily favored St.
• 20:33
  Louis Rams in 2017 thanks to a game-winning 48-yard field goal by Adam Vinateri as time expires.
• 20:40
  You see, you would have got it right off the bat.
• 20:42
  Dude, you're two for two.
• 20:43
  Way to go, buddy.
• 20:44
  Yeah, I know what I even say.
• 20:46
  And that is why Briggs is a genius.
• 20:48
  Wait, do we have one more?
• 20:49
  No, that was it.
• 20:49
  And that is our game.
• 20:50
  Got four tier.
• 20:52
  That's dude, you gotta give me a way harder on that stock.
• 20:54
  Got it.
• 20:55
  Nailed it.
• 21:03
  All right, we are at the end of the show, but we're gonna hit you guys with our last segment, the final score, picks, and predictions.
• 21:10
  I'm gonna lead off with this one.
• 21:11
  The NBA finals is upon us.
• 21:13
  It starts tomorrow night.
• 21:14
  I'm actually excited about this one.
• 21:15
  Here's my predictions.
• 21:17
  Spurs in seven.
• 21:21
  Seven?
• 21:22
  And seven.
• 21:23
  I I was either gonna say they're gonna win it in five or seven.
• 21:26
  So I'm gonna go with seven.
• 21:27
  I'm gonna go in with four.
• 21:29
  You think the Spurs are gonna sweep the Knicks?
• 21:31
  Or do you think the Knicks are gonna sweep the Spurs?
• 21:35
  The Spurs have home court advantage.
• 21:38
  Absolutely not.
• 21:39
  That's why I got them either in five or seven.
• 21:42
  I think it's in five or six.
• 21:43
  Five or six?
• 21:44
  See, I think I hope it's four because I don't know.
• 21:46
  Game six would be at the Madison Square Garden because the Spurs are the home they have home court advantage, and I think the garden comes alive.
• 21:55
  The Knicks are scrappy.
• 21:57
  I think they pull it out, but then Wemby sends them all home in game six.
• 22:00
  Let's hope the refs don't suck.
• 22:01
  So here's here's what I got.
• 22:02
  Well, I know I just want them to play physical.
• 22:04
  Like I just want the refs.
• 22:06
  I think the refs are gonna be great because there's we're not playing OKC.
• 22:08
  Okay, here's this.
• 22:09
  Let's go back to the Western Conference finals.
• 22:12
  Not terrible.
• 22:12
  Except the last two games, you gotta admit, the refs finally got the message.
• 22:16
  Yeah, and then SJ didn't win.
• 22:18
  And then they didn't win anymore.
• 22:19
  Exactly.
• 22:19
  Boom.
• 22:20
  So I actually think because the Spurs and the Knicks, I'm excited about it because they play hard and they play tough.
• 22:24
  Yeah, I think it's gonna be a fair whistle.
• 22:27
  Now, whether or not I agree with their calls, we'll see, but it's gonna be a fair whistle.
• 22:30
  But here's why here's here's my breakdown.
• 22:32
  So Spurs and seven, the Wemby factor.
• 22:34
  I if the Spurs were as as rested as the Knicks, I actually would be more confident in game seven.
• 22:40
  But the Wemby factor, he's gonna eat Carl Anthony Towns, also known as Kat, alive.
• 22:45
  So Kat leads the league in nonsense fouls.
• 22:48
  Nonsense, like completely unnecessary fouls.
• 22:51
  He is gonna be racking up fouls against Wemby.
• 22:53
  Yeah.
• 22:54
  And so they're gonna have to put somebody else on him, a smaller person, no matter who they put on him.
• 22:57
  I mean Wemby, I think Mitchell Robinson.
• 22:59
  If he's gonna be healthy to come back and play.
• 23:02
  But like, so look, it Rudy Gobert benched him.
• 23:06
  Uh Chad Holmgren, benched him.
• 23:08
  And those are and those are technically top defensive guys in the league.
• 23:10
  Yeah.
• 23:11
  And Wemby's.
• 23:11
  I hate Holmgrim.
• 23:12
  He's the dumbest.
• 23:13
  I don't disagree with you.
• 23:14
  I think you're right.
• 23:15
  He's scrawny, he's weird, he looks kind of emo and just weird.
• 23:20
  Yeah.
• 23:20
  He's tiny.
• 23:21
  He's even tinier than Wemby.
• 23:22
  He's tiny.
• 23:23
  Tinier than Wemby.
• 23:24
  He's got to get some weight on him.
• 23:25
  So here's the other reason why I think the Spurs.
• 23:26
  Um, I think being battle tested, that's actually a real thing, and that's gonna play a factor.
• 23:30
  The the here's an interesting stat.
• 23:32
  So the Spurs are the ones that are battle tested.
• 23:34
  They played in the West.
• 23:36
  Big time, big time difference in competition level in the West for the United States.
• 23:43
  Dude, so check this stat out.
• 23:44
  I looked this.
• 23:44
  The Eastern Conference sucks.
• 23:46
  I looked this out up, dude.
• 23:47
  Check this out.
• 23:48
  So the Knicks against the Western Conference in the regular season, they were like a 500 team, mediocre.
• 23:53
  And uh the Spurs against the West, obviously they got the number two seed.
• 23:58
  They dominated.
• 23:59
  But then the Spurs playing against the Eastern Conference, dude, they only lost like two games or something like that.
• 24:04
  It was crazy.
• 24:04
  They whooped them.
• 24:06
  So the Spurs against the East dominated.
• 24:07
  The Eastern Conference finals was weak.
• 24:10
  Uh, so the Knicks had the much easier path.
• 24:13
  Uh, the Spurs have a solid supporting cast.
• 24:16
  I I think pound for pound, they probably have the better overall team.
• 24:20
  The only thing that worries me is just they're young, but they haven't played young these playoffs so far.
• 24:25
  You know what I mean?
• 24:26
  Like their young guys have actually stepped up in high pressure moments that performed well.
• 24:30
  The last thing that I'm worried about, I was gonna say Spurs and five, but because of this, I'm pushing it to seven.
• 24:36
  The Spurs are gonna be exhausted because they just went through game sevens big time.
• 24:41
  Um, they have new young guys, and so I think the Madison Square Garden is gonna trip them up a bit because that is a hype, hype, awesome place to play.
• 24:49
  Um, I think each team wins one game on the road, and that pushes it to game seven.
• 24:54
  Okay, yeah, actually really five or seven.
• 24:56
  So that's kind of where I'm at.
• 24:58
  That's what we got.
• 24:59
  The final score picks is prediction.
• 25:01
  But this is also a massive, well, like this is a massive series for Victor Wim and Yamu.
• 25:05
  Yeah, first series and like the goat debate, LeBron versus Jordan.
• 25:09
  This, like, this is not help LeBron at all in his first NBA Finals appearance.
• 25:13
  That's a good point.
• 25:14
  And Wem that's a good point.
• 25:15
  I didn't think about that.
• 25:16
  Wemby's getting there super young in his career, too.
• 25:18
  Like he's way ahead of schedule.
• 25:21
  Yeah, but so if he wins this, I mean it's his league now.
• 25:25
  His league.
• 25:25
  I'm with you.
• 25:26
  I like that.
• 25:27
  Good point.
• 25:33
  Alright, that wraps up this episode.
• 25:35
  Buddy, you know what episode this was?
• 25:37
  Okay, no, that no.
• 25:41
  Dad, this is so no dad.
• 25:43
  I'm not no, no, just stop.
• 25:45
  This was such no peak aura segment.
• 25:48
  This was this was such a skibbity Ohio toilet bowls.
• 25:51
  Okay, no, okay.
• 25:52
  Peak aura was fine because I still say those, but like Buddy, like this was like such a six-seven episode.
• 25:59
  It was so fire aura aura glazing cooking thing.
• 26:06
  Fire Aura peak.
• 26:12
  All right, we out.
• 26:14
  Well I love doing that.
• 26:15
  I love it.
• 26:17
  That was sick.
