  caveman. What did you just say?
• 2:35
  The rebuild starts right now. Marshall Lattimore is gone.
• 2:40
  So the defense like we're not we're not getting any better.
• 2:45
  Looking to get into Smith. What a pass.
• 2:47
  That. Game with the game winner.
• 2:53
  All right? Goodness.
• 2:56
  That is why you have Air a career year like you have one of
• 3:09
  them. You're having you have the best
• 3:11
  quarterback in the league or usually the best wide receiver
• 3:13
  in the league and you've got the best edge rusher in terms of
• 3:17
  total sacks this season in your four and seven and your playoff
• 3:21
  chances are hanging on by it. Let's make it interesting we're.
• 3:27

• 3:42
  from the Warriors? Oh, in a pass and.
• 3:45
  Come make it, throws it down. What chance?
• 3:48
  This could be the pass of the year so far.

  Everyone caveman HG back on the ones and twos out here on the
• 4:37
  mics on MBR, the station that's letting our veterans voices be
• 4:41
  heard. Welcome back to another.
• 4:43
  Episode We got a lot of action-packed sports in this
• 4:48
  week's episode. Honestly, a lot of champions
• 4:50
  crowned. A lot of champions going to be
• 4:52
  crowned the College World Series of baseball.
• 4:56
  Texas is crowned the national champions.
• 5:01
  They beat beat the Texas Tech Red Raiders.
• 5:04
  Man, we that was our pick. We picked Texas Tech last week.
• 5:08
  We were going for the the upset there.
• 5:11
  And they went 2 to one. Good series though.
• 5:14
  Good series. You know, tech.
• 5:19
  It was pretty defensive those first two games.
• 5:22
  You got a lot of good, good pitching out of it.
• 5:24
  And then that that final game, though, something with Texas
• 5:28
  just clicked and they backed up them them ten runs.
• 5:33
  And yeah, Tech just started to look a little little lost there.
• 5:40
  But I don't think a lot of people saw the Longhorns coming
• 5:44
  anyways, just because they were going to have to clash with
• 5:47
  Oklahoma. But they I got that shocking
• 5:51
  victory over them and it was really, you know, it was really
• 5:56
  looking up for them like they were the team that was going to
• 5:58
  go ahead and take it home. So yeah, they go ahead and win
• 6:03
  the College softball World Series.
• 6:06
  I don't remember who it was and it was either which game it was,
• 6:11
  but somebody in this series hit a walk off the torn ACL, played
• 6:16
  the whole game with the torn ACL.
• 6:17
  It might have been the last game of the series, but she played
• 6:21
  the whole game for Texas with the torn ACL.
• 6:25
  Oh yeah, that's right. Don't remember him either.
• 6:29
  If you know who that is, drop the name in the comments.
• 6:32
  Give her a shout out. Impressive though, you know,
• 6:36
  championships on the line. So yeah, there's no coming out
• 6:40
  of the game for these players. Over to the College World
• 6:44
  Series. Of baseball, Arkansas still in
• 6:48
  it. 0 losses. We got the final eight teams
• 6:52
  here in this bracket. Oregon State, Coast of Carolina,
• 6:57
  Arizona, Louisville, those Razorbacks, LSUUCLA and Murray
• 7:02
  State all in it. I think this LSU, Arkansas match
• 7:08
  up. That looks.
• 7:09
  Fun. Going to be a good one here.
• 7:11
  That's going to be fun. LSU just beat the brakes off of
• 7:15
  West Virginia. A lot of runs given up in this
• 7:17
  one, but LSU was 16 and 12, so they certainly shown an affinity
• 7:23
  for for knocking it out of the park.
• 7:25
  Meanwhile, the Razorbacks bit more defensive in that first
• 7:31
  game against Tennessee. They sneak by, which is one run
• 7:35
  and then they they get the job done in Game 2 with 11 to 4
• 7:40
  victory. So 2 SEC schools, the bit of
• 7:44
  history there some some rivalry obviously looking to to get to
• 7:53
  get get it going in the the second bracket.
• 7:57
  They'll be accompanied by UCLA and Murray State.
• 8:01
  So that's going to be that's the one I really got my eye on.
• 8:04
  That's going to be good. But that that Arizona Louisville
• 8:06
  match up too. OK, man.
• 8:08
  Dude, that's a super regional series.
• 8:10
  That really surprised me. Look at this.
• 8:12
  Arizona, North Carolina, game one, North Carolina wins 18 to 2
• 8:19
  and then Arizona storms back and through the 7:50 win and then a
• 8:23
  real defensive game in game 3-4 to three final.
• 8:27
  But rallying back. I mean 18 to 2, you think you
• 8:30
  just lose Game 2 and you're out of there.
• 8:33
  And. North Carolina moves.
• 8:34
  On they kind of looked like they were on their way to that
• 8:37
  happening but Arizona rallying late and rocking up a bunch of
• 8:41
  runs late late into the game in the later innings and ended up
• 8:46
  holding on to come back for a win.
• 8:48
  So against #5 ranked North Carolina, no less, I'm.
• 8:54
  Liking it, I'm liking it. That's Louisville.
• 8:57
  Miami series was pretty interesting.
• 8:59
  So Louisville got off to the an 81V then they they gave up nine
• 9:04
  runs. So there's nine to six in Game
• 9:07
  2. Then that defense tightened back
• 9:10
  up for him in the 32V. They squeak it out in Game 3.
• 9:15
  So 2 teams that have been playing pretty well and they're
• 9:21
  coming off of some intense series.
• 9:24
  So there's going to be both teams I think are going to be
• 9:26
  really fired up and really ready to go there.
• 9:29
  That's going to be a good one. And you got UCLA, Murray State.
• 9:36
  I'm hoping, I'm hoping Murray State makes that series
• 9:39
  competitive. Yeah, they they they had
• 9:42
  nineteen runs in Game 2. So we've been seeing a lot of
• 9:47
  like game ones or twos ending up being in blowouts.
• 9:50
  But then you get to a game 3 and it's it's really close to close
• 9:54
  that five, the 454V there for Murray State.
• 9:59
  Yeah, I would like to see, you know, it would be cool to see
• 10:01
  them pull off that upset. I don't know if they're going to
• 10:03
  beat UCLA though, don't I don't know if they just got the the
• 10:11
  depth of that team does. But you know, we all have a good
• 10:15
  underdog story. So we'll be pulling for him a
• 10:17
  last match up here. Oregon State, Coastal Carolina.
• 10:23
  They should also be a pretty good one.
• 10:24
  Coastal Carolina, Oregon say both pretty good teams.
• 10:28
  Oh, it's actually opposite here. So Arizona's playing Coastal
• 10:33
  Carolina and Louisville is going to play Oregon State, and then
• 10:37
  UCLA plays Murray State, and then it's going to be Arkansas,
• 10:40
  LSU. Here.
• 10:43
  In this first round of winners bracket and then only two losers
• 10:49
  are going to drop to the eliminate.
• 10:50
  OK, there's an elimination bracket on both sides, but if
• 10:55
  you you got pretty much two chances here.
• 10:57
  Got two chances. It's just like the the opening
• 11:01
  series here of this World Series when they had four in each.
• 11:07
  He pretty much had two shots to win it.
• 11:10
  Yeah, being some some shootouts though in these ones.
• 11:15
  Game 3 Oregon State for the state was a 14 to 10 victory
• 11:20
  there. Dang.
• 11:23
  Yeah, a lot of big bullpen game for each each team.
• 11:28
  That's what I like about this, though.
• 11:29
  Once you get to like that game three scenario, you find out
• 11:33
  really how deep these teams are. And it's like when they they're
• 11:36
  just using what they got. They they think you they can
• 11:40
  beat you with a guy that might not be as good as some dude.
• 11:42
  They pull out in game three. That closes out the series and
• 11:46
  you know holds a team that just got eighteen runs on you to
• 11:50
  three and you end up out of the Super regional.
• 11:56
  I'm honestly, I'm going to pick Arizona every time I pick him
• 11:59
  and I jinx him, I swear to God and I I want to take.
• 12:03
  This I'm still riding with Arkansas.
• 12:06
  I'm on the back of that. Raise your back.
• 12:09
  What's there said that's woo woo pigs or something like that.
• 12:14
  Not a great school slogan, I'll be honest, but I'll be rocking
• 12:19
  with it for for the remainder of the College World Series.
• 12:22
  So. They're the highest seed
• 12:24
  remaining and out of these eight teams.
• 12:30
  And they're just, they're good. They're good squad, you know,
• 12:35
  and I'm, I don't know why I'm just so biased when it comes to
• 12:39
  baseball. My God, I just want the SEC team
• 12:41
  to win it because they're usually that's another sport
• 12:43
  that they're pretty good at. Call, call favoritism, whatever
• 12:49
  you want, but we'll be pulling for them.
• 12:51
  OK, man, onto the MLB. What we got going on over here?
• 12:58
  I think we ought to just go for it here first, man, and just
• 13:01
  head over to the NL West standings and look at that great
• 13:06
  team, that purple team down at the bottom, 12 and 54.
• 13:10
  They're up to 2. They got two more wins.
• 13:13
  Two more wins since the last episode.
• 13:15
  That's good. That's that's good.
• 13:17
  What a what a great team they are here.
• 13:20
  Then we had the, excuse me, Yankees Dodgers series recently
• 13:28
  here too. Yankees got killed in the middle
• 13:33
  game of that series, 18 to 2. Dodgers ended up winning it to
• 13:39
  the one and then right after that we get a.
• 13:43
  Pretty soon after that we get Red Sox and Yankees there, and
• 13:50
  Red Sox ended up beating the Yankees twice in that series as
• 13:52
  well. A lot of runs being scored in
• 13:54
  this one. That one is real offense, the
• 13:57
  straight offense. The Subway Series, that one was
• 14:03
  a little bit better there with the little less little more
• 14:09
  defense rather lone loss for the Yankees 3:00 to 2:00.
• 14:14
  But their pigeon was looking a lot better than that one.
• 14:17
  But yeah, I don't know that like they're, they're a top of their.
• 14:22
  I mean their. Conference, their division right
• 14:25
  now. They're going to run away with
• 14:27
  this AL East, like Toronto being the 2nd place team.
• 14:31
  Last year they were the worst team in the AL East and they
• 14:35
  really didn't make too many moves in the offseason to like
• 14:38
  get. They did, Reese signs.
• 14:40
  Lad. I like that move.
• 14:42
  That was the Oilers, that was. A real big move.
• 14:45
  Just a total, total collapse by the that team.
• 14:48
  I mean, they're just falling apart.
• 14:50
  Like Boston will make it a series.
• 14:53
  Right. 33 and 36. Boston plays the the Yankees,
• 14:58
  they play them really tight because I mean, there's all that
• 15:00
  history there. But yeah, I don't, I don't see
• 15:04
  them being too much of A threat. The Blue Jays low key kind of
• 15:08
  got a nice team. I think they got, I mean they
• 15:10
  got some real good sluggers and a sneaky good like pitching
• 15:15
  rotation there. So they might pick this year.
• 15:19
  They might make it interesting. They got a chance.
• 15:22
  They got a chance. What's up, John?
• 15:25
  Thanks for tuning in. My AO pick's got to be Detroit.
• 15:29
  They're Oh yeah. This year dude, they're looking
• 15:32
  insane. Frigging love the Tigers dude.
• 15:34
  Scubble is such a dog man. Pleasure watching him pitch.
• 15:40
  He might win Cy Young again and go back-to-back.
• 15:43
  I don't mind it. I don't mind it.
• 15:46
  He's honestly having a better season this year than he was
• 15:49
  last year. Yeah, he's he's on one.
• 15:53
  I mean, I, I'm like trying to think I I don't know if there's
• 15:56
  another picture I'd take right now over over Scubal maybe
• 16:01
  Skeens just for a because of his age man, but.
• 16:04
  I would either, that's probably my best 2 picks right there out
• 16:09
  of this season. That's like the ace of aces.
• 16:14
  But the. Pirates man, they got absolutely
• 16:17
  no offense. I I feel bad for skins 'cause
• 16:19
  he's just he's been having an insane season man.
• 16:23
  He like he'll have 3. He'll have three hits and then
• 16:26
  lose. Yeah, he'll, he pitched like 8
• 16:28
  innings, gave up two hits and one run and they lose.
• 16:34
  They lost that game. One nothing bro just he does
• 16:40
  everything they. Keep the team in the game and
• 16:43
  they do. There's absolutely nothing else
• 16:45
  to help him. They're absolutely abysmal.
• 16:50
  They got nothing going for him, but can't do this.
• 16:54
  Pitching staff for the Tigers is pretty nice.
• 16:57
  Like Scubble, obviously one of the best in the game, but they
• 17:02
  brought in Flowery. He's been really good this year.
• 17:07
  I. Forgot about.
• 17:08
  That right Casey Mizzy, he's been good so he's got guys lower
• 17:15
  down like Tommy Kale, Tyler Holton, Will Vest just seeing
• 17:20
  some real solid things out of them.
• 17:23
  Obviously we'll probably see a little lots of these guys
• 17:26
  throughout the when the playoffs start, but through the season
• 17:29
  and they're doing pretty good. But yeah, killing it, having
• 17:32
  Flaherty and scuba is kind of you're you're starting pitchers.
• 17:38
  And there's really. All if they can stay healthy,
• 17:40
  that'll be big on the the postseason.
• 17:43
  Flaherty they're going to hope that he does yeah, but underdog
• 17:46
  pick honestly, if it comes, they're really down to it.
• 17:49
  Mize six and one on the season. He's pretty solid honestly, you
• 17:55
  know, he kind of if he could get that ERA down, I think he can be
• 18:00
  he can be a pretty solid guy. He can be pretty solid late in
• 18:03
  the season, but he's got a good record from what it looks like
• 18:07
  only one loss. Great sluggers too on this on
• 18:15
  this team as well. Baez is having a great comeback
• 18:18
  after his injury too. It is.
• 18:21
  It's the work of Scott Constable in the in the great conscious
• 18:25
  mind on TikTok because he made a video about Rafael Baez like a
• 18:29
  few months before the season started.
• 18:31
  Now he's having an absolute comeback season after his
• 18:34
  injury. Somebody gave he gave Scott
• 18:38
  Constable his 5 minutes on Scott Scott, what does he do again?
• 18:45
  He he sees the colors and the patterns.
• 18:48
  It creates new neural pathways, that's what.
• 18:51
  That's what he yeah. So he created those for Rafi
• 18:53
  Baez Beautiful. That might be a little too
• 18:56
  underground for most of our viewers.
• 18:59
  I don't know if they're on Scott Constable TikTok like we are
• 19:01
  caveman. Oh my goodness.
• 19:10
  I like Ike, thanks for calling your comment.
• 19:15
  We're going to look at some of the the stats we got though on
• 19:19
  the season. Aaron Judge just crushed like a
• 19:22
  469 foot home run the other day. I know that he's leading with
• 19:28
  batting average calibre though. Man, Seattle Mariner, this guy's
• 19:34
  been having a pretty good year. He's been hitting a lot of home
• 19:36
  runs. Pete Alonzo man Mets team out
• 19:41
  like they paid, they pay the Kwan soda all that money and
• 19:48
  it's like like they should have just not do.
• 19:50
  That much at all? They should have given that much
• 19:52
  more that money to Pete. Man, he's been just tearing it
• 19:55
  up this year. A good majority of that money
• 20:00
  that is great. That dude averaging, he's
• 20:04
  averaging 317 homers. He's got 62 RBIs. 5th best OPS
• 20:11
  percentage in the whole the whole league.
• 20:17
  Yeah. And Pistol Pete, the new the new
• 20:19
  Pistol Pete, man, he's been crushing it.
• 20:23
  You know, he did just play the Rockies.
• 20:24
  So that might have been, you know, inflated their stats a
• 20:28
  little, help inflate your stats a little bit.
• 20:31
  But still, I think he's having a really great season.
• 20:35
  He need he should be an All Star this year.
• 20:38
  I'd be shocked if he weren't. I would be shocked.
• 20:45
  Then Shohei kind of dropping off most of the hitting leader
• 20:51
  lists. You know, he's only top five in
• 20:53
  home runs. He's got 23 but.
• 20:55
  I think it's been more based on a focus for the comeback to
• 21:00
  pitching though, because he's now officially in the bullpen
• 21:03
  for the first time in two years. So I think pretty soon we could
• 21:08
  be seeing him as as like that two way player that they
• 21:12
  initially had signed him as you know, potentially being everyone
• 21:16
  kind of hyped it up to be, which is really interesting when you
• 21:20
  think about it 'cause this guy can do it honestly.
• 21:24
  Yeah, he definitely can. The batting last.
• 21:26
  Well, we see them do it while. Injured the batting and base
• 21:30
  running while while. Injured in the punch and it's
• 21:32
  something nobody else has ever done with that the 5050 homers
• 21:37
  and stolen bases yeah it's going to be it'll be special when when
• 21:42
  he gets healthy he'll be special for the Dodgers again.
• 21:47
  But they're going to have AI mean it'll definitely, I think
• 21:50
  it'll definitely be tough though for a repeat of the World Series
• 21:55
  because you got. Especially with the NLS.
• 21:58
  Yeah, I mean, you got a lot of good teams though.
• 22:01
  They're looking. They're going for your throat.
• 22:03
  Giants and the Padres. Four playoff teams in that in
• 22:07
  that West. I'm still, and we haven't even
• 22:10
  talked about the Phillies that much, but they're a little under
• 22:13
  the radar right now, definitely. Slept on.
• 22:16
  They're just yeah, I mean, they've just kind of been a
• 22:19
  little quieter these past few weeks, but that's a team.
• 22:24
  But I think as we get down to the nitty gritty, you're going
• 22:26
  to really see like they're I mean, they know like this is an
• 22:31
  old roster, the lies contracts are up, like it's getting close
• 22:35
  to now or never, you know, and you got to make it happen.
• 22:41
  And Kyle Schwarber is so far, I think, having himself a low key
• 22:46
  almost MVP type season. You got guys like Alec Bohm, who
• 22:52
  wasn't he was not MVPI mean All Star.
• 22:55
  Sorry, not quite MVP, but All Star caliber season yet.
• 23:00
  Former All Stars like Nick Castilla or Alec Baum, Trey
• 23:07
  Turner, all those guys out and Bryce Harper.
• 23:12
  So it's a good roster. I like what you see there.
• 23:16
  But they also they're dealing with a good Mets team there in
• 23:19
  the NL East. So we'll see who who wins that
• 23:23
  one and who has to kind of go in as a wild card because they're
• 23:26
  both I think going to make it. But one team's going to be.
• 23:31
  One team's going to be the wild card.
• 23:33
  One's going to be. It's going to be a.
• 23:35
  Very. Yeah, it's.
• 23:36
  Going to be real close though, Nationals could honestly go on a
• 23:40
  little run, but we'll see. We'll see then at least kind of
• 23:44
  looks like it's been decided as well as the West in the AL.
• 23:50
  Is that just going to be Astros division here?
• 23:54
  I mean, the near future, I don't really know if the Mariners are
• 23:57
  going to get anything going. No, no disrespect to the
• 24:01
  Mariners and the Rangers are this season been on kind of a
• 24:07
  slump since since, you know, past few seasons recent.
• 24:11
  Yeah, since the World Series, yeah, they struggled to make,
• 24:16
  they struggled to even like stay in the race.
• 24:18
  And now they're they're not thinking too hot again.
• 24:23
  I don't know. I think the Mariners could
• 24:24
  probably make it interesting, but I think if the Astros stop
• 24:28
  like effing the round. They could just walk away.
• 24:31
  With it they get more serious anyway, we're we're barely even,
• 24:37
  we haven't even gotten halfway through yet, so we're maybe a
• 24:41
  bare barely 1/4 of the way through.
• 24:44
  And since we are only a fourth of the way through, we got to
• 24:48
  got to announce something special for all the fans of the
• 24:51
  show, all the Rockies fans out there.
• 24:54
  For the rest of the season, the two of us are going to be
• 24:57
  placing a bet on ourselves. We're going to be very
• 25:00
  accountable for this too. For the rest of the Rocky
• 25:03
  season. This is a going to be used as a
• 25:06
  motivator for them to get better as well.
• 25:08
  We're each going to be taking on a bet.
• 25:11
  The HG, what are you going to be doing?
• 25:13
  What's going to be your first? So outcome right now, the start,
• 25:18
  however many runs they give up in a week between each episodes,
• 25:21
  I'm going to bring in like a container of diced onions and I
• 25:25
  got to eat a diced, a piece of diced onion, like a big, like a
• 25:29
  big piece, not like a little tiny one.
• 25:31
  Like it'll be like a big, a big chunk.
• 25:34
  And we'll just have to eat, you know, however many runs they've
• 25:38
  given up in that that period of weeks.
• 25:41
  So I just kind of have to hope that they don't get like, you
• 25:45
  know, like multiple like 20 run spots on them.
• 25:48
  That would be that'd be tough. And yeah, if I can't can't
• 25:53
  manage youth at all in the the course of the next show, I got
• 25:56
  to put on a I'll have to wear a pretty humiliating outfit for
• 26:00
  the next show. So it'll be it'll be double
• 26:02
  motivation for me there. You know, we're going to, you
• 26:07
  know, and hopefully the Dick Montford, he'll see the
• 26:10
  suffering that he's just putting out on the even more fans.
• 26:14
  And maybe this could be motivation for him to sell the
• 26:17
  team. And to put yourself in
• 26:19
  perspective, the Rockies last night were winning against the
• 26:23
  San Francisco Giants 5 to 2. The final score of this game
• 26:28
  ended up being six to five. The Giants won.
• 26:30
  Honestly it doesn't even matter if they win every game, it's I'm
• 26:34
  still just going off of runs that they allow so.
• 26:37
  I, you know, I like that. Because here's The thing is, the
• 26:39
  Rockies, they get a game in Court Shield.
• 26:41
  They might win a game like 13 to 11, but that that's, that's just
• 26:46
  like, 'cause it's just a home run factory and up here in, in
• 26:50
  Denver. True what it should be, honestly
• 26:53
  every night. But for my bet at the rest of
• 26:57
  the season, I'm going to be doing similar to last year,
• 27:01
  those 340 push ups that I had to do after the Saints got beat
• 27:06
  down by the Packers on Monday Night Football.
• 27:09
  I'm going to be doing the workout.
• 27:12
  So it'll be an X amount, probably 10 to 20 per run
• 27:17
  allowed of a workout. Either of my choice, HGH Train,
• 27:22
  Jimmy or the viewers, whatever you guys comment down.
• 27:25
  It's just going to be a plethora of workouts for the rest of the
• 27:29
  season and I'm going to be doing so be 10 to 20.
• 27:33
  Per run score. Yeah, it's going to be good,
• 27:36
  going to be good for the summer. That's why I was I almost, you
• 27:40
  know, like was going to pick something like super sugar.
• 27:43
  It's just that that might make me sick and I'm like, you know
• 27:45
  what, I don't need that. I got to be thinking a little
• 27:48
  bit about the health. You know, I already do.
• 27:50
  We that with my doctor pepper. That's not going to be good.
• 27:54
  We got to get like a vegetable or something that's just
• 27:56
  difficult to eat raw. So onion it is.
• 28:00
  I might I'll probably switch it up.
• 28:01
  You know, not it'll never be anything that's meant to be
• 28:05
  eaten by itself. So I'll be it'll be a struggle
• 28:10
  and you get to enjoy that and we suffer for that.
• 28:15
  In hopes they'll get the the Colorado Rockies to to improve
• 28:20
  so that the owners will sell the team.
• 28:23
  Will it ever happen? Probably not Coming up on our
• 28:28
  first little half hour here. So we'll go ahead, hit our
• 28:32
  break. When we come back, obviously
• 28:34
  Stanley Cup, NBA Play Finals both underway, some really
• 28:40
  exciting games so far, a couple of overtime games and the Cup
• 28:44
  buzzer. Be there, Halliburton does it
• 28:46
  again. Lot to cover, lot to breakdown.
• 28:49
  We'll have that and more coming up here until the final whistle.
• 28:53
  Stay with us. Hey, my name is Andrew Wiscombe
• 28:56
  and this is my submission for the Gems in the Rough 2021

  voices be heard. The boys are back just covered
• 34:15
  College World Series softball baseball head over to the MLB
• 34:20
  now we've got more finals talk and it is the Stanley Cup.
• 34:26
  Edmonton, Florida Florida currently leading the series 2
• 34:30
  to 0, but we got a flashback 2 to 1.
• 34:34
  Excuse me, we got a flashback to game one of the series.
• 34:38
  Overtime thriller, Kind of thought for the might steal one
• 34:44
  on the road. I just didn't expect it to be
• 34:46
  game one. I'm not going to lie.
• 34:51
  Excuse me, I didn't. Expect Edmonton to get this one
• 34:55
  either here, but they just kept it close, yeah.
• 35:00
  And we go Edmonton actually got this one.
• 35:03
  Oops, I'm on the wrong game. My fault.
• 35:06
  Yeah. So in overtime and it was
• 35:09
  actually McDavid to a dry side and I believe that it.
• 35:12
  Was to finish it. The shot that finished denial.
• 35:15
  At the end. Of the game at the Edmonton won
• 35:18
  the four on the power play and they kind of got crushed in the
• 35:22
  face offs too, but they just were able to still get way more
• 35:25
  shots on goal 46 from this one. And really aggressive against
• 35:30
  this Florida defense, which it's something that you we really
• 35:33
  haven't seen all playoffs and we've seen it like one or two
• 35:36
  games in a series for them. But the only really close series
• 35:42
  that Florida had I believe was against Toronto.
• 35:45
  They haven't really had to really play anyone too close,
• 35:48
  beat everyone in four to five games to get into this Stanley
• 35:53
  Cup Final. This game started off really
• 35:57
  well for Edmonton. Quick goal and quickly it
• 36:01
  started to get kind of away from him here with the Panthers
• 36:06
  scoring so fast and you know, they're up three one in the
• 36:12
  second get a goal to at least make it 3 two before before
• 36:17
  going into that second in their mission and then Echolm he's
• 36:22
  able to tie it up. But just yeah, very defensive
• 36:25
  though on for both sides. Bob Roski, honestly, you can't
• 36:31
  even hate on the guy for for going 4246.
• 36:34
  That's a lot of shots on the other block tonight.
• 36:37
  That's insane. Got some help from his
• 36:39
  defenceman and all that, but that was just it was it was a
• 36:43
  tough night for him and he had a lot, lot of action it.
• 36:47
  Was under siege. Coming his way, yeah, but big
• 36:50
  game for Sam Bennett. Got two goals in this one.
• 36:52
  Brad Mcchain also adding the goal to this.
• 36:55
  You mentioned dry saddle with the winning goal, but he also
• 36:59
  was up. He scored the first one, so two
• 37:02
  goals for him, said Eklund. Got one and Victor Arvadison
• 37:09
  with another one there for the Oilers.
• 37:12
  Well, just that, I mean, pretty much about what we expected.
• 37:15
  I mean, they were some pretty evenly matched teams.
• 37:17
  And yeah, Edmonton's offense was putting a lot of pressure on
• 37:23
  Florida's defense, but they held up pretty well trading some
• 37:28
  blows. Edmonton was able to sneak out
• 37:30
  with this one. Game 2, You know, they were
• 37:35
  like, overtime was so nice. Let's do it twice in this one
• 37:38
  and we get double overtime. This one was crazy here.
• 37:41
  And here, the Panthers were able to steal game on the road.
• 37:45
  Another 46 shots attempted. And I got to sit through the 1st
• 37:49
  2 games. I mean, Edmonton was lucky that
• 37:51
  they were this. I mean they, or for that rather,
• 37:54
  was lucky that they were this close because Edmonton over
• 37:58
  these two games 2 for 10 in their power play opportunities.
• 38:04
  Dominated not this one was 6. And they had six and they just
• 38:09
  not you think they would maybe make take more advantage of it
• 38:14
  but just weren't weren't quite able to get it.
• 38:17
  Had a lot of block shots now in this 124 and again like this,
• 38:21
  this game, I mean, it was up and down the ice.
• 38:24
  Having the extra periods helps a little bit, but each team with
• 38:27
  over 40 shots on goal. And yeah, Bob Broski again goes
• 38:33
  42 of 46, but this time he gets a little help out from his
• 38:36
  offense and they they go ahead and score five goals to uncover
• 38:41
  him for him. Stewart Skinner, 37 a 42.
• 38:49
  I mean, come on now. That's a pretty good percentage
• 38:52
  out of 42 out of 42 shots. I'll take that in the.
• 38:56
  You know what, it was just unfortunate that he was the one
• 38:59
  that to to give up the extra goal.
• 39:01
  I think both of the goalies played phenomenal in this game.
• 39:07
  You just think with all those shots flying in that there would
• 39:11
  be way more points. And just really, I know a
• 39:14
  testament to how skilled each of these teams are.
• 39:17
  It's like, yeah, we we're getting this offense to work.
• 39:20
  We're getting this pressure on your, your net and hey, we're
• 39:25
  we're answering and we're defending and then we're on,
• 39:29
  we're stopping it and then we're we're forcing it back down on
• 39:32
  your side and getting pressure on you that way.
• 39:36
  Just two, I mean, two Titans really just throwing haymakers
• 39:42
  these first two games here. Bennett getting another goal in
• 39:46
  this one. So he's right now, I think been
• 39:48
  through at least the two through 2 games been the Panthers MVP.
• 39:54
  He's been really great for them. Marchand he adds two goals in
• 39:58
  this one. Seth Jones and Kukilov also
• 40:03
  getting some goals in this one as well.
• 40:06
  Dry Sidle I'd say right now probably the the MVP of the of
• 40:10
  Edmonton to these two games. He got another goal plus an
• 40:14
  assist in this one. McDavid, A lot of assists from
• 40:17
  McDavid. He's been more of a distributor
• 40:19
  in this of the score. Yeah, but like some some real
• 40:22
  good assists. He had three in this one.
• 40:24
  So I got three of their four goals, he assisted on.
• 40:28
  It kind of helps their offense I feel like a lot more because
• 40:31
  he's able to kind of control the flow.
• 40:33
  Well, you know that he's going to go on there a lot of
• 40:36
  attention from the defense. I think he's been kind of trying
• 40:38
  to use that to his advantage and set up his teammates for with
• 40:42
  good opportunities. I mean, he's he's been doing it
• 40:46
  pretty well. He's that.
• 40:47
  He's that in the passing. Game.
• 40:48
  Yeah, plenty of assists in this one here.
• 40:51
  I would say for Edmonton my MVP's got to be either Drite,
• 40:55
  Seidel or or McDavid. But for Florida Man, I'm going
• 40:58
  March and because in this game three it it got a little out of
• 41:04
  hand. Florida takes a six to one, but
• 41:07
  Marchand, I'm pretty sure he's recorded a goal in every game
• 41:10
  this series. One or more goals in every game
• 41:12
  of the series for the forwards. Yeah, that's right.
• 41:16
  He's been. He's been stand out.
• 41:18
  They filled it up, though. Bennett got one.
• 41:20
  Marchand got one. Reinhart, Rodriguez, Carter,
• 41:25
  Verhege and Ekblad all got a goal.
• 41:31
  In this one, I'm not sure what quite happened Edmonton in game
• 41:34
  three. I think the the energy that the
• 41:38
  Panthers are feeding off of, I'd like it was just just, it was
• 41:42
  not Edmonton's day. 11 power play opportunities.
• 41:47
  This game could have been 11 then one.
• 41:51
  They only score three of their power play opportunities.
• 41:54
  Both of their goalie, the goalies that they had come in
• 41:57
  and play, they'd struggle as well.
• 42:01
  And yeah, I mean, it was the penalty minutes were killing
• 42:05
  them for both teams. There was a stupid amount of
• 42:09
  combined penalty minutes. I mean, 85 out of Edmonton, 55
• 42:14
  out of Florida. Somebody that's quicker at math
• 42:16
  can add that up, but that's a lot of penalty minutes.
• 42:20
  That's a a metric F ton, as they say in the business.
• 42:25
  That's like almost 130 minutes of cricket.
• 42:30
  It's insane. Yeah, so a lot of guys spending
• 42:34
  time in the box and it was more to the Panthers benefit.
• 42:37
  Another thing speaks to where I think the Panthers just have
• 42:40
  more depth and you know, they're like not to say that Edmonton
• 42:46
  doesn't have the good depth, but I just think like the the depth
• 42:48
  pieces not for the have, you know, when you when you take out
• 42:53
  maybe some of those stars, I just trust some of those guys.
• 42:58
  You know, the back in the floor is lined up to be a little
• 43:00
  better than than Edmonton. And that was something that we
• 43:06
  really saw in this game. But Bob Roski, another masterful
• 43:10
  performance. 32 or 33 on saves in that game.
• 43:15
  Beautiful. Yeah, and he really only gave up
• 43:19
  an early one in the second and that was a double assisted goal
• 43:24
  and he was just locked down the rest of that night.
• 43:29
  You know, I feel like to Chuck for Florida been a bit quiet in
• 43:35
  this series, but they haven't haven't really needed it that
• 43:37
  much out of him. And he's been making some plays
• 43:39
  like defensively, getting out there, walking shots, getting
• 43:44
  and getting some shots on goal as well.
• 43:50
  So another game for tomorrow night back here in in Florida.
• 43:57
  Kind of I'm kind of looking for Edmonton to respond.
• 44:00
  I think it's been the real back and forth series.
• 44:04
  They dropped two in the row. They've given up 11 goals
• 44:08
  through there. I think they're just, you know,
• 44:10
  they don't want to get down, you know, and be facing elimination
• 44:15
  against this team again. So, you know, they're not have
• 44:19
  to win multiple games in the row like they did last year.
• 44:24
  Yeah. So I think they're going to
• 44:25
  there's just going to be a certain desperation that they'll
• 44:28
  probably be playing with tonight that's going to really help them
• 44:33
  pull out of victory. I think we're going to see one
• 44:37
  of our more defensive matchups of the series, like give me like
• 44:40
  a like A32 type of hockey game, something like that.
• 44:45
  But the Oilers will pull it out. Might get, might get more.
• 44:48
  Overtime, yeah, I think for sure we could be seeing some more
• 44:52
  overtime in this game for, I mean, I'm excited for it though.
• 44:57
  This series definitely been a lot better than last one last
• 45:01
  year. I think Edmonton coming out
• 45:03
  swinging in these first two games had Florida on their toes.
• 45:07
  Right, giving them home ice, but now they they've kind of lost
• 45:10
  that as they got the one stolen in Game 1.
• 45:13
  So they have to, they're going to have to win this one to the
• 45:18
  one back home ice. Must win right here for.
• 45:23
  Edmonton, right. I I really do think that
• 45:26
  honestly, whoever wins this game tomorrow will probably end up
• 45:31
  winning the series because he like either you're for that and
• 45:36
  it's just that's a good we did one yeah that that gives you a
• 45:42
  good a good whole chokehold over Edmonton or I think it's the the
• 45:47
  right amount of momentum Edmonton's going to need to
• 45:51
  close this series out. But drop your predictions in the
• 45:56
  comments below. You Team Edmonton, Team Florida,
• 46:00
  our. Pick was Edmonton.
• 46:03
  Edmonton, yeah. I just think it'd be cool to see
• 46:05
  them bring it. Bring it back.
• 46:07
  Bring it back. Yeah, why not, man?
• 46:10
  But bringing. It over to the NBA.
• 46:13
  Final From the From the ice rink to the hardwood, there we go,
• 46:17
  we. Had an insane game, one that
• 46:22
  Pacers come back down 15 once again he just keeps.
• 46:26
  Finding a way to do it man. They always get back into these
• 46:30
  games. I think that's going to go huge
• 46:33
  for them. Pulling off an upset in this
• 46:36
  series is getting that game. People think that coming back
• 46:39
  from down 15 in, I believe 9 out of your eighteen playoff games
• 46:46
  is a bad thing. No, the better team is the team
• 46:50
  that wins the game when it's over.
• 46:53
  So. I mean, they just, they don't,
• 46:56
  they don't buckle, they don't yield, man.
• 46:58
  They just keep coming at you and any mistake that you make and
• 47:03
  just get amplified it, you know, like it wasn't like a
• 47:09
  particularly crazy game scoring wise for any of these guys, but
• 47:14
  it's just like a lot of them were making shots when it
• 47:17
  mattered down the stretch. I think Miles Turner, his
• 47:21
  defense in the because they try to put him in the pick and roll
• 47:26
  a lot and like he had to, he had to defend a lot of action just
• 47:32
  in a lot of drives to the hoops. He had to get moving downhill
• 47:36
  and on that perimeter like vertically a lot in this one.
• 47:41
  And I think they're going to continue to do that by at least
• 47:44
  try to do that with the bigs of the Pacers this Series A lot
• 47:47
  because they they want to get that Shay switch anytime they
• 47:53
  can. And I feel like they're
• 47:55
  confident in him driving on anyone on the Pacers.
• 47:58
  But. Not like it was a bad game for
• 48:02
  Shay man. 38 points. Yeah maybe not the most ethical
• 48:06
  hoops. He was 14 to 30 but only only 8
• 48:09
  free throw attempts only give him that.
• 48:13
  I had a couple of big threes for his team.
• 48:16
  Lou Dort gave him 15. Jalen Williams gave him 17.
• 48:20
  You have a Hartenstein homegrown.
• 48:25
  Even the Case and Wallace all kind of struggled.
• 48:28
  Off night from them here for sure.
• 48:31
  Definitely, you know, they just, they kind of got the, you know,
• 48:35
  we were let like they were up and the defense was working.
• 48:39
  So they were just kind of letting Shay do his thing in the
• 48:42
  the ISO game. And then his shots started to
• 48:45
  stop falling. I think they were getting cold.
• 48:47
  And then this the pacer, the pressure, but they were just
• 48:51
  putting on defense in that second-half of the hustle,
• 48:55
  rotating out and contestant. Every shot just came really big.
• 49:00
  And Siakam, you know, 19 and 10, he had a double, double, double
• 49:06
  S Nesmith 12 rebounds. I think his his defense was
• 49:11
  really important down the stretch and then did them hard
• 49:14
  that step back that he hit on Shay.
• 49:18
  He was 2 for six from three and they just let him.
• 49:21
  After crossing him up like that. That was filthy though.
• 49:24
  Like, hey man, you're one for five.
• 49:26
  We're going to clear the floor, let you ISO against SGA real
• 49:30
  quick. And I mean, that combo was
• 49:32
  nasty. That was filthy, right?
• 49:34
  There. Step back.
• 49:36
  Pretty much like a double step back move.
• 49:39
  Yeah, the cute viewer would have noticed, you know, as that was
• 49:43
  happening, Shay, like he, he got fouled by them hard and he
• 49:49
  pushed him afterwards just it wasn't like anything super hard
• 49:53
  to be put gave him a push and then hard kind of like walk back
• 49:58
  him with one of those looks over the back of his shoulder and
• 50:03
  like very next possession hits that 3 pointer in his eye.
• 50:08
  And that's pretty much a dagger who's coming down the stretch to
• 50:12
  give Halliburton the last second shot.
• 50:14
  That's that's Shay that misses that that miss that.
• 50:17
  Go ahead, float her right there to extend the lead to three.
• 50:21
  I think it was, I mean, it was good defense, but like that's a
• 50:24
  Shay that that's a spot on the floor and you're like, man, that
• 50:28
  that's usually muddy for. Him shot for him right there.
• 50:31
  But that the the swing, the pressure of the moment, I think
• 50:35
  just took over something otherworldly knocked that ball
• 50:41
  off, of course, and then guided Halliburton's in the like 4 was
• 50:47
  is this that was his fourth or his fifth big four.
• 50:52
  OK, fourth game-winning or game tying shot.
• 50:55
  The the Pacers in the play offs are just like on on go ahead or
• 51:01
  or game tying shots in in clutch time.
• 51:05
  They are like something absurdive or I think it's just
• 51:08
  Halliburton himself is like 8 or 8 of nine, while like the rest
• 51:13
  of the NBA is like 6 of 23. Yep.
• 51:18
  He's insane. He's just hitting big shots when
• 51:23
  he needs, when his team needs him the best.
• 51:25
  I. Mean looking at the box score.
• 51:28
  Sorry, go ahead, H Yeah, I don't want to move on yet.
• 51:30
  You could just like moments like that.
• 51:33
  I mean, it's just it's hard not to feel great for the guy
• 51:36
  because like I, I got to bring up that anonymous poll one more
• 51:40
  time. Like how is he called the most
• 51:42
  overrated? He called the most overrated.
• 51:46
  Just don't respect the guy with elite, elite passing, you know,
• 51:50
  because that's where that's where he really makes his name
• 51:53
  is. He's an elite playmaker, but
• 51:56
  clutch to he's proven man. He's a clutch shooter and he can
• 52:00
  really score when he needs to. Looking at this box score though
• 52:05
  and watching after watching this game, you can really tell what
• 52:10
  was going to happen in this game.
• 52:11
  In this game too for the Thunder right?
• 52:15
  A complete bounce back. I mean they couldn't this one
• 52:17
  for them, they couldn't lose 2 at home like that was just they
• 52:23
  they really needed this one. Mainly because they're killing
• 52:25
  them. The Caruso 20.
• 52:29
  Isaiah Joe, 18. That's Wiggins.
• 52:32
  I think that's got 18. Aaron Wiggins had 18.
• 52:35
  He was. He was the one that was gone.
• 52:37
  Fire from three. Aaron Wiggins was not missing
• 52:41
  from three in this one. They just shot a lot better from
• 52:44
  three in this one too. 19 from J Dub and 15 from Chet.
• 52:49
  I mean that's that's honestly the lie you could ask for from
• 52:52
  him when Shay's doing a big load of your scoring.
• 52:55
  Getting like 30 + a night 15 from one of your bigs is pretty
• 53:00
  good to ask honestly. Shay was doing a lot of
• 53:03
  everything 34 points you have 5 rebounds, 8 assists, 4 steals
• 53:08
  even blocked their shot in there.
• 53:10
  He real. I think he I mean, he he took,
• 53:14
  he took the blame for that game one loss and like to be honest,
• 53:17
  like, I mean, like that's good leadership, but we all know it
• 53:21
  wasn't really your fault. You dropped 38 and you scored a
• 53:25
  bunch of points. I mean.
• 53:27
  They almost had 40 points in this and that one.
• 53:30
  Kind of hard to blame that one on you if you're an outside fan,
• 53:34
  but good leadership taking the responsibility for the loss.
• 53:38
  It's just a bad shooting night from the team in the game one.
• 53:43
  I mean, he's bound to have a couple bad shooting nights.
• 53:46
  He's got 21 shots put up in the NBA Finals where you're going to
• 53:51
  be getting the top defense going, the top competition of
• 53:56
  the league. This is the final series of the
• 53:58
  entire season. I mean you're if this is top
• 54:01
  competition, I mean take 21 shots a game with your the most
• 54:07
  tight contest you've experienced all season.
• 54:10
  And he's not getting a lot of open looks too like.
• 54:12
  No open. I think the, the defense of the
• 54:17
  Thunder, they, they just didn't let up in this one or get, you
• 54:24
  know, kind of, I think they're just some confusion and some bad
• 54:29
  communication Also took a hold of them in that game one and
• 54:35
  they got that worked out and sorted out in game two.
• 54:41
  He much needed to win. And yeah, again, this one, they,
• 54:44
  they can, they were up and in control for a lot of it.
• 54:49
  Rick Carlisle, I think he ended up calling it quits kind of
• 54:53
  fairly early into the 4th, pulled his starters.
• 54:58
  How's the Thunder? We're pulling there's.
• 55:02
  So I mean, the huge win for the Thunder, you get a tie back up
• 55:07
  to the two. It'll be interesting to see.
• 55:10
  You know, I mean, they did a lot of good things attacking the
• 55:14
  Pacers defense and just on their end, slowing down their offense.
• 55:22
  And again, like a lot of turnovers through these two
• 55:24
  games. I think they're like up to 40
• 55:26
  between two games for the Pacers.
• 55:28
  Yeah, something that will definitely, definitely worries
• 55:34
  you. I've been liking what I'm seeing
• 55:36
  a lot from Benedict Math during off the bench, though.
• 55:39
  He definitely needs more minutes off the bench there too.
• 55:42
  Definitely, he's kind of been nursing a little bit of an
• 55:45
  injury, but I think most, I think in this series he can have
• 55:49
  a big impact is defending Shay. He is just a really aggressive
• 55:55
  and scrappy player. Picked up a lot of fouls in this
• 55:59
  one. But I mean, what if you get into
• 56:01
  a game where the officiating is more in in his favor?
• 56:04
  I mean, it could be a different story.
• 56:07
  And you'll, I think you'll see less whistles in favor of the
• 56:10
  Thunder at home. I mean that just is the thing
• 56:12
  that tends to happen when you're the home team.
• 56:14
  The whistle is a little bit more in your favor.
• 56:20
  So that'll certainly help him here.
• 56:23
  Siakam, I'm looking for him to like like drop like a a 30, a
• 56:27
  couple of 30 bombs here. You know, need some more points.
• 56:31
  I think at the Pascal I think like or, or a lot of rebounds,
• 56:34
  'cause like that was where he made a big impact.
• 56:37
  He didn't score a ton, but he had a bunch of rebounds,
• 56:40
  including a huge one on that on them hard missed three.
• 56:44
  He was able to put it back up and then make it a one point
• 56:47
  game and you know, Halliburton comes down, comes down the court
• 56:53
  the next position after the mass and drains that that game
• 56:56
  winner. I think this next game I'm
• 57:02
  actually I'm going to lean towards Indiana taking it.
• 57:06
  It's going to be another close one that I think I'm definitely.
• 57:09
  Leading towards Indiana here. I think we counted them out too
• 57:12
  early. We counted them out far, far too
• 57:15
  early after that game one. I mean playing close games in
• 57:21
  the in the finals, I don't think that matters.
• 57:23
  People are talking about the ratings being down because we
• 57:26
  don't want to see blowouts. Then why and why are we
• 57:29
  complaining when the team wins a close game?
• 57:32
  I'm just saying that they're fraudulent because they have to
• 57:35
  play a taiki. Like, come on, we'll.
• 57:37
  Cover this because yeah, it's been the unfortunately a topic
• 57:41
  of what's been a really good series, but people are
• 57:43
  complaining about how it's a a boring finals on my I clearly
• 57:49
  haven't watched it yet. But yeah, people, I mean NBA
• 57:53
  fans just love to complain. That's their favorite thing
• 57:57
  about the sport is complaining about it.
• 57:59
  They're never, never happy, man. It's just.
• 58:03
  David Stern would never let these two teams make his his
• 58:07
  finals in his league. It's like then you clearly
• 58:10
  haven't picked up your TV remote to even watch a game in like a
• 58:13
  decade because you're still watching the good teams.
• 58:17
  Doesn't matter, and it's the Oklahoma City.
• 58:20
  And it's like you get just like not even like 10, like 10 years
• 58:24
  ago, like everyone's complaining that there were too many super
• 58:27
  teams and that was like the same players in the finals every
• 58:30
  year. And now it's there's per parody
• 58:32
  and we're getting smaller markets.
• 58:33
  And it's like, you know, the smaller markets are getting the
• 58:36
  better shot at the finals and because we're able to get more
• 58:39
  players and we're we're not seeing, you know, dynasty super
• 58:42
  teams dominating the leagues for in their conferences.
• 58:47
  And it's like, oh, no, actually that sucks.
• 58:51
  I don't know. People just aren't happy.
• 58:53
  I will say one thing. Everyone loves to complain about
• 58:56
  the ratings too, man. Like, I wonder where I want to
• 58:59
  know where half these people are finding these stats at.
• 59:01
  Because I'm going to be honest, like just go and Google search
• 59:04
  TV ratings and you're just going to, you're not going to see a
• 59:07
  very good answer. Like you're you're not going to
• 59:10
  you're not going to see your the answer you're looking for just
• 59:13
  by looking at the first very first thing that pops up when
• 59:17
  Google tells you the very first thing that the ChatGPT tells you
• 59:21
  when you search up the NBATV ratings.
• 59:25
  Because just the post game show alone is better than most of the
• 59:29
  games. Yeah, like there might be a crap
• 59:31
  fest game on. There'll be two crappy teams.
• 59:34
  Hey you got a great post game show.
• 59:37
  I think one thing that those ratings can't really show is
• 59:39
  like how many people are watching through like, you know,
• 59:44
  streaming sites that aren't exactly above born because I
• 59:48
  mean, it's the the games are expensive and you know, people,
• 59:53
  there are a lot of NBA fans that just probably don't like the
• 59:55
  money to pay to watch all the games and they find, you know,
• 59:59
  other ways to do it. So the ratings are a little.
• 1:00:02
  I'm telling you, Josh Krocke, you think I'm buying Fubo TV to
• 1:00:06
  watch the Nuggets? You're out of your freaking mind
• 1:00:08
  bro. Crazy you're out of.
• 1:00:09
  Your freaking God damn. Man, crazy.
• 1:00:11
  If you think I'm going to do that.
• 1:00:15
  I just say I-1 complaint that I've heard I think is for the
• 1:00:19
  eval is that they they just aren't putting like a lot of the
• 1:00:23
  you know, the finals logos on the court and they're doing a
• 1:00:27
  bad job of making this feel like it's the NBA Finals.
• 1:00:30
  You know, I get that dude like 1 like the NB as presentation
• 1:00:36
  games need some work 'cause it's like, I mean they're always
• 1:00:38
  starting late and like, is this like, I don't know is it is this
• 1:00:44
  a final sponsored by YouTube TVI don't know came in.
• 1:00:47
  I can't really tell. It's a it's sponsored by whoever
• 1:00:50
  their freaking. Dude, there's.
• 1:00:52
  Designer is. There's like 70.
• 1:00:54
  PNGS on the court. Dude there's like 70 YouTube TV
• 1:00:59
  ads. And none of it was even at the
• 1:01:01
  actual stadium. That's the funny part.
• 1:01:04
  Like, you remember, you've seen the tweets with the NBA Finals
• 1:01:08
  logos that they had in the first half.
• 1:01:10
  They had a the Larry O'Brien trophy on the court at like the
• 1:01:16
  near the midcourt logo. And after halftime, people were
• 1:01:19
  complaining about how bad it looked.
• 1:01:21
  Right, there's like a an uploaded PNG.
• 1:01:24
  And then they changed it so it wasn't even really even, it
• 1:01:27
  wasn't even at the stadium at all on the floor, like it was
• 1:01:31
  just some PNG that they had green screened on the the
• 1:01:34
  broadcast. I think that that's the biggest
• 1:01:36
  thing the NBA can do to fix their ratings or or whatever
• 1:01:40
  that their complaints are, to make more people complain
• 1:01:44
  lessons, to just give more. There's plenty of storage at the
• 1:01:50
  stadium for every team to have a nice.
• 1:01:53
  Room I'm saying just like make the games feel more important,
• 1:01:57
  dude, like an NFL game, an MLB game, a hockey game.
• 1:02:03
  Those are those start right on time or pretty Dang close to it.
• 1:02:08
  Dude, it's like. Or even early.
• 1:02:10
  Yeah. I mean, they're, they're ready
• 1:02:12
  to go. I mean, it very rarely are they
• 1:02:15
  delayed longer than 5 minutes. And it's like the NBAI mean the
• 1:02:22
  game never starts. Like I I the game just never
• 1:02:26
  starts when it says it's supposed to.
• 1:02:27
  You'll turn it on. It's like you have 12 more
• 1:02:29
  minutes of NBA count. Then you're like, what are we
• 1:02:32
  doing? Like get me to this game like
• 1:02:35
  it's supposed to start. But as we're speaking.
• 1:02:39
  Yeah, and I think that that might hurt people, not people
• 1:02:43
  don't want to stay and watch that, whatever it might be.
• 1:02:46
  They just like I I'm not thought the game was going to be on.
• 1:02:49
  They go do something else and then they forget to go back to
• 1:02:51
  it. Whatever.
• 1:02:52
  They even go back, but they they're not real ball fans.
• 1:02:56
  It's been a great finals. I think I'm really excited to
• 1:03:00
  see what happens in this game. I think we're going to have
• 1:03:02
  another thriller on their hands and we'll we'll see.
• 1:03:07
  I'm I'm leading Pacers and seven now.
• 1:03:10
  I mean, it's the delusional fan of me, but Pacers and seven,
• 1:03:14
  even though it's probably still Thunder and six, Pacers and
• 1:03:17
  Seven, I believe. Let's go.
• 1:03:18
  Let's go, Halliburton. Let's go.
• 1:03:22
  I, I wanted to say, I think we're probably going to have a
• 1:03:25
  different prediction as the weeks go by.
• 1:03:27
  It's going to be a long series. So as of right now, I must say
• 1:03:31
  Thunder and seven, Thunder and Seven, and it may change by the
• 1:03:36
  time even Friday comes. So we'll see.
• 1:03:39
  We'll see. I mean, we'll, by the time we
• 1:03:45
  have the next show, we'll probably know for sure or we'll
• 1:03:50
  be one way it will be at least a game away from Game 6.
• 1:03:53
  And we'll see. And that's going to do it for
• 1:03:55
  coverage of the NBA Finals and the Stanley Cup.
• 1:03:59
  We're going to head to another commercial break.
• 1:04:01
  But when we come back, we've got some more NFL news and updates
• 1:04:06
  on the season. So don't go anywhere, folks.
• 1:04:08
  Stay with us till the final whistle on military broadcast
• 1:04:13
  radio. We'll be right back.
• 1:04:32
  be getting to. The station where our veterans
• 1:08:51
  voices are heard. MBR talk.
• 1:08:55
  Hey thanks for tuning. In Welcome Back are those of the
• 1:08:59
  speakers and do not necessarily reflect the views or positions
• 1:09:04
  of any entities they represent. The web at NB radio dot.
• 1:09:11
  You are looking live at till the final whistle, everybody on NB
• 1:09:15
  Radio, the station that's letting our veterans voices be
• 1:09:19
  heard. We're we're lagging a little bit
• 1:09:22
  on all right. I hope this is not happening for
• 1:09:24
  the viewers. I mean Broncos just made a big
• 1:09:28
  splash deal. This is going to be our test
• 1:09:31
  right here. Let us know if we're lagging
• 1:09:33
  because the Broncos just signed JK Dobbins to a one year deal.
• 1:09:37
  I think it's like worth like 15,000,000 right I.
• 1:09:41
  Don't remember. Yeah, yeah.
• 1:09:42
  I think a little less than that, like 13.6, something like that.
• 1:09:47
  Yeah, I mean, that's a pretty big signing for this offense,
• 1:09:50
  dude. Like, could this team possibly,
• 1:09:54
  you know, dethrone the Chiefs? His health dependent because
• 1:10:04
  that's always been JK Dobbins. Issue is can he stay healthy?
• 1:10:08
  Is he in depth? Now though, man.
• 1:10:10
  That's a Get a. Million carries.
• 1:10:12
  That's kind of a sneaky good running backroom.
• 1:10:15
  I mean, he I think Dobbins could be a stun as the number one
• 1:10:18
  back. I mean he was great in the
• 1:10:20
  games. He was healthy for the Chargers,
• 1:10:23
  dude. Like he when he can be healthy,
• 1:10:27
  man, he's such a good bat. And now we can lean on a little
• 1:10:31
  less. I mean, you've got him and RJ
• 1:10:33
  Harvey Andrick estimate. I think like Julian McLaughlin
• 1:10:37
  still there when the Broncos would just keep getting deeper
• 1:10:41
  as a team. I mean, it's a good offensive
• 1:10:45
  line that they've got the run behind.
• 1:10:47
  Oh yeah, Pacers, he was. He was telling me last week he
• 1:10:51
  almost had to turn off our show because we were disrespecting
• 1:10:54
  the Pacers and then they won game one on that crazy shot.
• 1:10:59
  We were rooting for, I was always rooting for him.
• 1:11:01
  Stanley. I just had to try to give an
• 1:11:04
  objective opinion because they were a little a little overmatch
• 1:11:07
  with OKC, but hey, they're going to, they're going to win it now,
• 1:11:11
  I believe. If the Broncos out of here, No
• 1:11:14
  way. Dude, I just honestly.
• 1:11:16
  It's all about the shucks. Show at this point I cannot wait
• 1:11:18
  for the NFL season start. I mean, Oh my God, I've, I've
• 1:11:22
  never been this excited for a Broncos season.
• 1:11:27
  Think we're about 84 days, 84 days at least until fantasy
• 1:11:33
  football is going to start. So I'm.
• 1:11:36
  I'm hyped on that. Yeah, I'm hyped on that.
• 1:11:38
  I tell you what man, I'm really missing needing, you know, 12.7
• 1:11:43
  points out of my bench on a Monday night.
• 1:11:46
  Dude, it's just not the same. Don't.
• 1:11:47
  Do us like that man. Don't do the Saints like that,
• 1:11:50
  man. Oh, I mean I.
• 1:11:53
  Come on, best team in the league.
• 1:11:55
  He's kind of like on the point. Best team in the league.
• 1:12:00
  Oh, the Saints, caveman. We got, we've been repositioning
• 1:12:04
  our O line around. We got guys working in new
• 1:12:06
  positions and I think honestly it's they're in their most
• 1:12:11
  favorable positions on the line. I'm going to be honest.
• 1:12:15
  And if you're Speaking of that one guy, it's just Trevor
• 1:12:18
  Penning. It's just Trevor Penning.
• 1:12:21
  If we didn't have Trevor Penning, these guys could play
• 1:12:24
  wherever they wanted to on the offensive line.
• 1:12:26
  We didn't have to. Also this man, it could be worse
• 1:12:30
  because I saw the Packers, they got some of their wide receivers
• 1:12:34
  out there running cornerback drills.
• 1:12:37
  So they're they're just so they're so shallow at sinus man,
• 1:12:41
  they're so shallow at corner. HG and Caveman in the bump and
• 1:12:44
  run. Drill dude, I am not cornerback
• 1:12:48
  material. Are you kidding me?
• 1:12:50
  Well dude, there's like there's only like 2 white corners and
• 1:12:55
  they are like exceptional man. Like that's like you don't get
• 1:13:02
  to be a white guy and you have had corner.
• 1:13:04
  It's just not, it's just not a thing that.
• 1:13:08
  So I mean, if they want somebody that can go ahead and give up,
• 1:13:11
  you know, 300 yards and four touchdowns a game, I'm your guy.
• 1:13:16
  But. I mean, they might get that with
• 1:13:18
  their receivers, that corner. But we'll see.
• 1:13:22
  I could do it for cheap. I mean, I'll do it for cheap
• 1:13:25
  but. They cleared up the books, they
• 1:13:27
  can make a big signing right here.
• 1:13:29
  But where do you think potential landing spot for Jair?
• 1:13:34
  I'm kind of considering looking at Buffalo.
• 1:13:37
  Bills make a lot of sense. A big hole in their line up is
• 1:13:41
  in that secondary and they run a lot of zone.
• 1:13:44
  What kind of irks me as though I feel like the Chiefs are going
• 1:13:48
  to somehow get him. No, no.
• 1:13:51
  Honestly, but like that would make like that would be a smart
• 1:13:53
  move for them to go because it's like even if he gets hurt, they
• 1:13:58
  still have good depth. But like when he's healthy, man,
• 1:14:00
  like you'll like, you'll like to have that.
• 1:14:04
  I think another team that might. Kind of also feel in the Rams
• 1:14:08
  could potentially make sense. Yes, I'm feeling teams that
• 1:14:11
  really like to run a lot of zone coverage that he's really good
• 1:14:15
  in zone where he can just kind of walk down that number one
• 1:14:19
  guy. The Cowboys, I mean, they still,
• 1:14:23
  I think they still got a decent amount of cap space.
• 1:14:25
  They haven't made a ton of moves.
• 1:14:28
  Maybe they try to make a splash splash for Jaier.
• 1:14:35
  I can also see. I mean, it would be a total
• 1:14:38
  Holly Roseman move to just go and get giant Alexander for the
• 1:14:42
  eagles. That makes a lot of sense.
• 1:14:45
  But keeping it in the east, another division, another
• 1:14:49
  division of punt, I think, and using the commanders.
• 1:14:53
  I I mean they still Lattimore. See if the if I can get the cap
• 1:14:58
  space list to refresh accurately.
• 1:15:01
  But if I remember correctly they still got a decent bit of cap.
• 1:15:06
  Same thing though with like the Patriots.
• 1:15:09
  That's a team pair. Them up out there with gonzo
• 1:15:14
  Christian Gonzalez. And Carlton Davis is there as
• 1:15:19
  well. They did get Carlton Davis.
• 1:15:23
  Yeah, I forgot about that. That would be a pretty good DV
• 1:15:27
  room right there. Honestly, I think ultimately
• 1:15:32
  he's going to probably end up a really strong feeling.
• 1:15:35
  It's going to be in like the North.
• 1:15:37
  Like, I don't know, maybe the Steelers make a play of them,
• 1:15:40
  but I kind of feel like the Ravens or the Bengals.
• 1:15:45
  The Bengals especially because I think they might be able to get
• 1:15:47
  them for cheap. Sophomore Jinx coming to
• 1:15:50
  Washington. I yeah, go to Washington.
• 1:15:54
  Stay the hell away from Denver. Sophomore slump.
• 1:15:57
  I don't want you any. We don't want you anywhere near
• 1:15:59
  the Mile High City. Go to DC.
• 1:16:03
  That's why there are the other enough problems over there.
• 1:16:05
  They won't. They won't know this.
• 1:16:09
  That's true. Right.
• 1:16:12
  Yeah, drop, drop some some predictions in the comments for
• 1:16:15
  us. Where do you think Jair
• 1:16:16
  Alexander is going to go? Nails get him.
• 1:16:23
  Bills should do it for him. Because I think right now the
• 1:16:26
  Chiefs are, the Chiefs might be sliding out of the picture.
• 1:16:30
  I hate to say it, but they could potentially be sliding out of
• 1:16:35
  the picture. They lost a lot of pretty decent
• 1:16:38
  depth that they needed. I mean, I still got Mcduffie,
• 1:16:40
  but I think they could use, I mean, they they drafted some
• 1:16:45
  guys, but I think they would certainly feel more comfortable
• 1:16:49
  put in the proven come out of the in the league back there.
• 1:16:56
  Uniting with with Lamar, OH potentially potentially could be
• 1:17:06
  seeing them in I. Think that makes a lot of sense
• 1:17:08
  in Baltimore too, man, Like seeing them in Baltimore because
• 1:17:12
  I I think you could probably get giant year on the on the cheap.
• 1:17:15
  I don't know what he's going to actually.
• 1:17:17
  He might hold out for more money, but I think like he
• 1:17:20
  might, I mean you might be able to get them on like a two year,
• 1:17:23
  $15 million deal or something like that, you know.
• 1:17:26
  Baltimore secondary they had, they got guys, but they had a
• 1:17:30
  really. Tough secondary.
• 1:17:31
  It's going to be a minute before like he he signs with a team.
• 1:17:34
  I think like teams are going to be more interested in him, kind
• 1:17:38
  of like in the price for him dropping before spending the
• 1:17:42
  money. So like a smart team might wait
• 1:17:47
  until they can get them on the cheap.
• 1:17:48
  I think about a worst team might overpay for him a bit.
• 1:17:52
  Titans on the rise, nowhere to go.
• 1:17:55
  What up? Put them there, put them in
• 1:17:58
  Tennessee with Lujarius Sneed. Tennessee's got the sneaky good
• 1:18:02
  defense. I got some guys on there.
• 1:18:03
  Oh yeah, yeah, it's that the AFC S man.
• 1:18:09
  I, I do think more than likely like if, if we're going to see
• 1:18:13
  him go anywhere, he'll probably, he'll probably want to try to go
• 1:18:16
  to the contender. Broncos will sign Alexander, put
• 1:18:21
  the rookie in the slot, trade Riley Moss for Draftic.
• 1:18:25
  That's something you did. Y'all get that safety from the
• 1:18:28
  49ers though. Tell him.
• 1:18:30
  Tell him. He's got like a big, big depth
• 1:18:33
  out in your secondary like. I mean, like, I guess you could
• 1:18:38
  never have too many good corners.
• 1:18:40
  But yeah, at a certain point pick, right?
• 1:18:46
  I mean, this is a big year for Riley Moss because like, I mean,
• 1:18:52
  that might, that doesn't, that wasn't crazy to me.
• 1:18:54
  Trade Chris Abrams dream for a pick?
• 1:18:57
  I don't know if he's proved enough.
• 1:18:58
  I think Riley Moss, man, like you might be able to get some
• 1:19:01
  good value for him. I'm just worried those few games
• 1:19:04
  where he came back from injury that might drive this value
• 1:19:07
  down. Maybe he has to play a few more
• 1:19:10
  games and and, you know, step show out and stand out again.
• 1:19:16
  So we'll see what and we'll see what he what he does this year.
• 1:19:20
  It's a big year for him, though. He's really got to prove himself
• 1:19:26
  on the on that Broncos unit. But I came in another big free
• 1:19:32
  agent signing did happen. I mean, it's not really shocking
• 1:19:38
  to anybody. We all knew it was going to
• 1:19:40
  happen. Aaron Rodgers.
• 1:19:42
  We're just kind of waiting for the work, yeah.
• 1:19:44
  And I'm glad it wasn't the Saints, because I'm not trying
• 1:19:47
  to hear it. I was not trying to hear that
• 1:19:49
  news, not at all. Yep.
• 1:19:54
  So he's finally a stealer. I mean, so I'm nine and eight,
• 1:20:00
  1210 and seven season first round exit kind of loading.
• 1:20:07
  But I feel. Like they need to just take
• 1:20:09
  Derek Carr retired. Derek Carr retired.
• 1:20:12
  He wins Couch MVP, that's what he's going to do.
• 1:20:15
  He wins the the vlogging him and his brother a day that are doing
• 1:20:19
  vlogs on YouTube right now. Oh God yeah it's stupid that his
• 1:20:24
  shoulders injured but he's out carrying a vlog camera with this
• 1:20:27
  freaking throwing arm. Ready to go, buddy?
• 1:20:30
  Those two guys man, like they they irked some fan bases the
• 1:20:35
  wrong way bro the Carr brothers just.
• 1:20:38
  Both of. Them like the the cities that
• 1:20:40
  they left man they got some disdain for Houston and and New
• 1:20:45
  Orleans they did the South dirty they're they're in a lot of love
• 1:20:49
  lost there All right well came in with this Aaron Rodgers
• 1:20:55
  signing do you think we see this will Howard see the field is
• 1:21:00
  this a. Prediction Mike Tomlin official
• 1:21:04
  officially have his first losing season.
• 1:21:06
  Do the like, whether they get like will they fire him like
• 1:21:10
  regardless, Like I don't think this, I think everyone sees the
• 1:21:14
  ceiling for this team as first round exits.
• 1:21:18
  Yeah, like that's the, that's the ceiling that they've got for
• 1:21:21
  themselves. That's got in most years that it
• 1:21:24
  is just like make playoffs. It's a it's a ceiling that they
• 1:21:28
  hit often, but. The NFL though, at least we
• 1:21:32
  can't say that they don't fire coaches at least as often as
• 1:21:36
  they do in the NBAI feel like at least like long time coaches get
• 1:21:40
  fired after having like 1 bad year or like 1 bad loss in the
• 1:21:45
  NBA. It doesn't really happen too,
• 1:21:48
  too much in the NFL, really. Yeah, whether the Super Bowl
• 1:21:51
  does buy you a bit more time, but.
• 1:21:53
  Yeah. It's yeah.
• 1:21:56
  I mean, look at Doug Peterson, Jacksonville.
• 1:22:02
  Yeah, that was way, way too long overdue the firing, dude.
• 1:22:07
  Could the Steelers still, you know, finish second in the in
• 1:22:14
  the north? Sure.
• 1:22:15
  I think Baltimore wins that division again, probably run
• 1:22:18
  away. But then could they, you know,
• 1:22:23
  the Bengals with their issues, I mean, their offensive line still
• 1:22:28
  really ain't that good. Joe Burrow's just gotten better
• 1:22:31
  at escaping sacks. He's got a lot of practice and
• 1:22:35
  the the defense there be tough for them to I I think it'll be
• 1:22:40
  tougher than the certainly come in the second.
• 1:22:41
  So like that'll probably be the the route for the for the
• 1:22:47
  Steelers sneak into that second spot in the north and then a 67C
• 1:22:53
  then in the West and get crushed by like a Buffalo or Baltimore,
• 1:22:58
  maybe Kansas City in round. One by somebody, right?
• 1:23:03
  I think we're really flipped. It's really feeling like we're
• 1:23:06
  getting close to either Lamar or Josh Allen finally getting a
• 1:23:10
  Super Bowl. It's right there.
• 1:23:12
  I'm leaning more towards Allen because he's been able to get it
• 1:23:15
  done better in the playoffs. But the the Chiefs, they did
• 1:23:21
  reload nice. But I just, I mean, three
• 1:23:24
  straight Super Bowls, it's tough to to go to a fourth.
• 1:23:28
  That's going to be tough. I mean, that's going to be
• 1:23:31
  really tough. They reloaded on their talent
• 1:23:35
  fairly well, but they they lost an anchor on the offensive line
• 1:23:39
  and you know. That, that's a big one.
• 1:23:45
  That's a big one. Look, I just it's so hard to get
• 1:23:48
  back to that spot 4 times. So we we might finally see.
• 1:23:55
  Lamar or back Player of the year Aaron Rodgers.
• 1:23:58
  OK, there's a solid prediction right there.
• 1:24:02
  Ow, I mean that's, you know, that is interesting.
• 1:24:04
  They lost all their backs though.
• 1:24:06
  Yeah, dude, was Jalen Warren still there?
• 1:24:09
  Yeah, they only got Jalen Warren.
• 1:24:12
  Who they drafted, they have drafted somebody.
• 1:24:15
  I mean, I'm not sure if like riding on the rookie running
• 1:24:18
  back with an aging QB in the you know, is going to be the way to
• 1:24:24
  go, but we'll see. Almost scroll all the way down
• 1:24:29
  to Pittsburgh. They're like way at the bottom.
• 1:24:31
  Is it going to be? That's what the Raiders are
• 1:24:33
  doing, rookie running back and then throw them on the shoulders
• 1:24:37
  of the aging QB and a lot of young receivers to go along with
• 1:24:41
  it. Gino thinks it's better for the
• 1:24:43
  back right down there. Rodgers is, though.
• 1:24:46
  Much better. Gino's completed more passes in
• 1:24:50
  one season than Anthony Richard has since high school.
• 1:24:54
  Yeah. Steelers do have a good old
• 1:24:56
  line. They actually, they drafted
• 1:24:58
  Caleb Johnson, the third man, which I, I really like Caleb
• 1:25:04
  Johnson. I was a little, I'm hyped on RJ
• 1:25:06
  Harvey, but I was a little upset that the Broncos didn't drive
• 1:25:10
  Johnson because I really, I was like, oh, if he we could get
• 1:25:13
  him, that'd be sick. And then he dropped to us and I
• 1:25:15
  was like, oh, come on. I just think he's really.
• 1:25:19
  When you got Harvey instead, yeah.
• 1:25:22
  Harvey would be good. I mean, he said that a Darren
• 1:25:24
  Scrolls type, so he fits that Sean Payton mold.
• 1:25:27
  But Johnson, he just got like special acceleration.
• 1:25:30
  That's watching him at Iowa the way he could just burst into the
• 1:25:35
  open field. It was something special.
• 1:25:39
  Well, we got a couple. I know we have some some
• 1:25:42
  holdouts, but the Bengals still. But Terry Mclaurin actually
• 1:25:46
  didn't show up for. Yep.
• 1:25:49
  The the mandatory mini camps. So that's interesting something
• 1:25:56
  to put the pin in. I I feel like the commanders
• 1:25:59
  know they'll be their number one right receiver and they'll get
• 1:26:02
  that worked out before the season.
• 1:26:05
  But we did see with Jamar Chase, Joe Burrow, they were little
• 1:26:10
  off, you know, the the contract holdouts.
• 1:26:14
  There's another good receiver that took him a minute to get
• 1:26:17
  going. Who was I'm thinking of?
• 1:26:22
  There dude that was going crazy in the playoffs.
• 1:26:24
  They had a a couple crazy touchdowns there.
• 1:26:29
  It's like their wide receiver 3. Yeah, I'm, I'm, I'm blanking on
• 1:26:35
  the name, but we we have seen those holdouts where guy isn't
• 1:26:39
  there in the offseason can take a minute for the the teams to
• 1:26:43
  get In Sync, right. And you know, it's like relying
• 1:26:48
  on Debo is your number one right in this day and age is that's
• 1:26:52
  not what. You want to see?
• 1:26:54
  99 not not something you want to live or die by, certainly not
• 1:27:01
  the the methodology that you want to lose use.
• 1:27:05
  I mean, all right, well, that's that's going to do it for our
• 1:27:09
  NFL offseason update. But we got some more football to
• 1:27:14
  talk about, folks, because the UFL Conference championships
• 1:27:18
  we're also this week, Caveman's Michigan Panthers.
• 1:27:22
  Move on. My stallions fall in
• 1:27:25
  embarrassing fashion. Birmingham is down.
• 1:27:29
  They've falling. 8th time's the charm with those Michigan
• 1:27:32
  Panthers. They finally beat them.
• 1:27:33
  We did it three times. Really great games.
• 1:27:36
  Don't got to get you, just don't give up.
• 1:27:38
  By Bryce Perkins was an absolute man possessed in this one.
• 1:27:46
  Did some crazy things. He had two total touchdowns in
• 1:27:51
  this one. And then Kiloto, it was just, I
• 1:27:56
  mean they got that ball inside the five yard line and he just
• 1:28:00
  pounded it into the end zone. 3 touchdowns for him on the day.
• 1:28:04
  Oh yeah, Michigan wins it all. That's the pick.
• 1:28:07
  That's the pick. I like it.
• 1:28:09
  I think they match up pretty well against this, this
• 1:28:13
  Birmingham. I'm not this Birmingham, this DC
• 1:28:16
  team and they got they got a good defense.
• 1:28:22
  It's going to be I think it's going to still be pretty high
• 1:28:24
  scoring though, because these CS offense like really electric
• 1:28:28
  too. But the Panthers and they're
• 1:28:30
  just at their ability to sustain drives and pull the like the
• 1:28:34
  magic that Bryce Perkins has like a he has a 1/3 and 17 and
• 1:28:42
  this man picks up 29 yards using his legs breaking multiple
• 1:28:47
  tackles on this run too just would not be denied.
• 1:28:55
  And the amount there there was some big plays in this one too.
• 1:28:58
  On top of those those long sustained drives where a usually
• 1:29:04
  sure tackling Birmingham defense really just missed some guys and
• 1:29:11
  we had I mean, the long touchdown catch there by Malik
• 1:29:14
  Turner all all yak on this one. Pretty much.
• 1:29:18
  He just hits a pretty simple Strat slanter out, hits him in
• 1:29:22
  stride, bad arm tackle, gets an angle up the sideline and he's
• 1:29:28
  gone. And that play was nuts.
• 1:29:30
  Yeah, I don't I don't know if you're talking about the Malik
• 1:29:32
  Turner touchdown or the the Bryce Perkins third down
• 1:29:36
  conversion, but either way, yeah, absolutely nuts.
• 1:29:40
  Jamar Smith, good story for this guy this year, but he really
• 1:29:43
  struggled in this game. Threw a pick six and they yanked
• 1:29:47
  them after that. That was the cool brothers.
• 1:29:52
  I mean, the other one, he didn't really do anyone tying the cool.
• 1:29:56
  He didn't do much. But Samson, Yeah, with that pick
• 1:29:58
  6 here. And they'll slap you slap one of
• 1:30:02
  your fans too in the stadium. It's crazy.
• 1:30:05
  Not corral he came in, but some pretty good drives for the
• 1:30:10
  Stallions got that offense going a little bit more.
• 1:30:13
  They just they got down by too much and they really were never
• 1:30:16
  able to establish a run game and they had to throw the ball a
• 1:30:20
  lot. This deal on Cain dude, I'm
• 1:30:23
  going to be shocked if he doesn't get a shot on NFL
• 1:30:26
  roster. He absolutely balled out down
• 1:30:29
  down the stretch of the season. Just a big play machine.
• 1:30:33
  He can go up catch those 5050 balls.
• 1:30:35
  He's got great speed, great hands, strong physical receiver.
• 1:30:39
  He's looking like a total package.
• 1:30:42
  I would be shocked if we don't get to see him.
• 1:30:46
  And same with some Bryce Perkins man.
• 1:30:47
  Yeah. He could.
• 1:30:50
  He could be a backup somewhere. He could be backup tackling.
• 1:30:54
  The worst fundamental professional football.
• 1:30:57
  Yeah, it's very true. It's so important.
• 1:31:00
  Yeah, you can see, I mean, number of plays in this game
• 1:31:04
  were some poor tackling, turn what should have been a pretty
• 1:31:07
  modest or pedestrian gain and do a huge play number.
• 1:31:13
  You know, 2A ripped off a number of runs like that and it just
• 1:31:19
  Stallions made it kind of close to 44 to 29 loss.
• 1:31:25
  But yeah, the Panthers really they they impose their will
• 1:31:29
  pretty early on this one in spite some late surges from
• 1:31:34
  Birmingham. They held on very well and we're
• 1:31:42
  able to just close it out. I was just like the poise of the
• 1:31:47
  Panthers is what really like stood out to me.
• 1:31:50
  This is like Birmingham would score, make it a one score game
• 1:31:54
  again and they would just answer by either, you know, a big play
• 1:31:59
  drive or putting together a long time consuming Dr. and punching
• 1:32:04
  the ball in the end zone. But just a lot of everything
• 1:32:08
  that they did worked. I thought their defense for the
• 1:32:15
  most part was really good. They did.
• 1:32:19
  They did give up a couple of big plays here and there, but that's
• 1:32:22
  something that Birmingham's been living and dying on.
• 1:32:25
  And while they didn't have a ton of sacks, I mean, only one for
• 1:32:29
  each team, you can see the pressure there and the the way,
• 1:32:35
  yeah, the, yeah, getting down multiple scores kind of forced
• 1:32:40
  Birmingham to to give up on the run.
• 1:32:42
  But also they just weren't, you know, really risking as much
• 1:32:46
  because they were not getting a lot of push up front.
• 1:32:50
  Those defensive tackles, some big anchors, they're on the
• 1:32:54
  ground just blocking the men. Shout out though, man, it took
• 1:33:04
  us how many tries? Eight tries.
• 1:33:07
  Eight tries, We taught them. Michigan wanted this one.
• 1:33:11
  They really wanted to beat them. We got a UFL, We got a UFL.
• 1:33:15
  Don't you worry, Don't you worry.
• 1:33:19
  Michigan Panthers, Bryce Perkins got you covered.
• 1:33:21
  He's going to bring us to the promised land and we're going to
• 1:33:24
  take out the defenders for HG. Yes, Avengers.
• 1:33:30
  Avengers I. Wanted it to be.
• 1:33:36
  I wanted it to be Panthers Battlehawks in this game right
• 1:33:39
  here, which would have pretty much been a home game for you
• 1:33:42
  guys. In Saint Louis, I would have
• 1:33:44
  been sick, but I just knew. I just.
• 1:33:50
  You change your pick. I've been rooting for Michigan
• 1:33:52
  since last season when we first started covering this team.
• 1:33:56
  All right. I just knew that this was going
• 1:33:58
  to happen with. I mean this.
• 1:34:01
  It was pretty ugly. From the start we had almost no
• 1:34:07
  forward passing game. We just couldn't, couldn't move
• 1:34:12
  the ball. Some bad turnovers.
• 1:34:15
  As well dug in with, I mean, he'd like hit his drop, go to
• 1:34:20
  his. First read and.
• 1:34:22
  If it wasn't there, he just wanted that to take off.
• 1:34:27
  Then the other side, Teyamu. Despite the one pick was pretty
• 1:34:32
  comfortable. Back there, I think he picked us
• 1:34:33
  apart for the most part here wasn't I mean the the defense.
• 1:34:41
  Just wasn't able to bail. Out this time.
• 1:34:42
  I mean, he had one, one kind of bad read miscommunication that
• 1:34:47
  led to that pick. But besides that, he was, I
• 1:34:51
  mean, surgical. Dicing apart a.
• 1:34:54
  Really good defense and they just they ran they neutralize
• 1:34:58
  the pass rush really well, just running the ball up the middle a
• 1:35:02
  lot and the the battle Hawks strength is on their edges and
• 1:35:07
  their secondary and that with just them imposing the world up
• 1:35:13
  front running the ball. I mean taking those those D ends
• 1:35:16
  out of the play, basically 187 rushing yards, 3 touchdowns
• 1:35:22
  marched it down on us. I like the move of bringing.
• 1:35:26
  In Brandon Silver's. Until he got hurt that kind of
• 1:35:30
  like, I had some hope for a comeback and then he went down
• 1:35:34
  and I was like, yeah, Duggan's just, he's not going to do it.
• 1:35:36
  Like this guy is not meant we need it at this point.
• 1:35:42
  Sign her up. Sign her up.
• 1:35:45
  Get her in there. Her versus Shuck.
• 1:35:49
  That would be an. Interesting QB battle.
• 1:35:51
  That's good arm. Interesting QB some.
• 1:35:53
  Good arms, just just the Battle Hawks luck we get.
• 1:35:57
  The guy who's finally getting the the.
• 1:35:59
  Offense moving a little bit and humming the forward pass and and
• 1:36:03
  gets injured. Yeah, our offensive line play
• 1:36:07
  probably one of its worst games. Of the season.
• 1:36:09
  Wasn't a lot of great protection there otherwise.
• 1:36:14
  It's one thing you hate to see this late in the season too.
• 1:36:18
  Let's stop in, Stan. Thanks for.
• 1:36:19
  Stopping in and. It is one thing you hate to see
• 1:36:24
  this. Late this season, your online.
• 1:36:25
  Collapsing. Five socks, one of their worst
• 1:36:28
  games here. And just I mean, quite frankly,
• 1:36:34
  just orderly out coached on everything that like a the
• 1:36:40
  defensive coordinator just had no idea how to count or
• 1:36:43
  anything. The Defenders OC was thrown at
• 1:36:46
  them Anthony Beck and the the DC of or the OC of Saint Louis just
• 1:36:54
  had no answers for that Defenders defense.
• 1:36:58
  It's pretty ugly game getting doubled up on your score 30.
• 1:37:02
  6:00 to. 18I we need a somebody out of Max Duggan needs to be
• 1:37:08
  the. Quarterback for this team.
• 1:37:10
  I mean, really put any other anybody out there at quarterback
• 1:37:14
  and maybe this team goes. Undefeated.
• 1:37:16
  Because I mean. They really had all the talent,
• 1:37:21
  but it just fell apart at the QB position and like you couldn't
• 1:37:24
  couldn't get the ball to the playmakers reliably.
• 1:37:27
  That's like 14 attempts from Duggan Silver's.
• 1:37:32
  Like you're saying, he didn't have a full chance.
• 1:37:34
  He got injured after 10 passes. He was looking good.
• 1:37:38
  But I I was like, OK, there's some we can maybe work with this
• 1:37:41
  and gets hurt. Going in the halftime and it's
• 1:37:42
  just yeah. So both both losing teams this
• 1:37:46
  weekend ended up benching their. Quarterbacks halfway.
• 1:37:49
  Through it try to get the spark didn't work out for either.
• 1:37:53
  Now we got Tayamu versus Bryce Perkins, Dion Jackson versus Tua
• 1:37:58
  Tawa, Chris Rowland versus Malik Turner seems in the cool going
• 1:38:08
  to be great. I'm leaning towards the.
• 1:38:11
  Panthers. I think that they just got just
• 1:38:16
  a better, they've got more, better weapons.
• 1:38:18
  I like their their receiving core a little bit more.
• 1:38:21
  And I think they're just they're they've got a better ability to
• 1:38:24
  just control the ball with, you know, Perkins Tower, the way
• 1:38:27
  they can run that there gonna I think we'll still see a high
• 1:38:32
  scoring game. I'm gonna go like 30. 734.
• 1:38:35
  Panthers comes to the dark side everyone join on big Panthers
• 1:38:40
  I'm. Going 40. 42. 38 Panthers.
• 1:38:47
  I like it. I like it all right.
• 1:38:50
  Well, that's going to include the UFL coverage.
• 1:38:53
  Champions, come on, we're going to go ahead.
• 1:38:54
  Take one more quick break just so we can confront a few things
• 1:38:57
  when we. Come back though.
• 1:38:58
  We'll have some miscellaneous Sports News and just some things
• 1:39:02
  happening around the world of sports.
• 1:39:06
  Yeah, that that we don't usually get to, but we'll give them a
• 1:39:09
  shout out here on this day. So don't go anywhere.
• 1:39:13
  We got more till the final whistle coming up here on
• 1:39:17
  military broadcast radio. Stay tuned.
• 1:39:19
  We can fly across the ocean with our own spread open wide.
• 1:39:23
  Follow me as far as you can. Baby, you
• 1:42:48
  MBR talk. Hey, thanks for tuning in.
• 1:42:54
  Welcome. Back are those of the speakers
• 1:42:56
  and do not necessarily. Reflect the views or positions
• 1:43:00
  of any entities they represent. The.
• 1:43:03
  Web at MB radio dot. That's till the final whistle.
• 1:43:10
  Itchy and caveman. Back in last got 9:45.
• 1:43:16
  It is about that time I think we are going to cover just some
• 1:43:19
  random news out. We got some got some news on
• 1:43:23
  tennis. Coco Goff, HG take it away.
• 1:43:27
  She broke her record right? Well, she became the the first
• 1:43:31
  American to win. The French Open here this
• 1:43:37
  Saturday, this previous Saturday, and she beats and bear
• 1:43:43
  with me as I hold on try to say this name when my page.
• 1:43:49
  Refreshes. She be Arena Salablanca.
• 1:43:55
  And I don't. I don't even know where that
• 1:43:58
  flags from. The pretty, pretty intense match
• 1:44:06
  that I don't exactly know how to score because I'm not a huge
• 1:44:08
  soccer guy, but pretty historic nonetheless.
• 1:44:13
  Finally getting an American winner there in the French Open.
• 1:44:18
  We had the men's double S final was also that day.
• 1:44:21
  And the Argentinian Spanish combo of Marcel Granolas,
• 1:44:27
  granolas and horcios de Bolanos getting the victory there over a
• 1:44:33
  couple of British, excuse me, competitors.
• 1:44:38
  And then we go to Sunday. There was another epic match
• 1:44:45
  between Carlos Alcaraz and Yannick Skinner, a rivalry there
• 1:44:49
  that's only deepening. And Skinner actually got up to
• 1:44:55
  an early lead in tennis ways. And then in the first two sets
• 1:45:02
  and then those final three sets, Alcaraz rallied to come back and
• 1:45:07
  clinch a victory at he calls the most exciting win of his career.
• 1:45:14
  It was a really good match. Caught some highlights of that
• 1:45:17
  one. Real back and forth between both
• 1:45:20
  of those guys when you had the the women's double S final in
• 1:45:25
  the French Open. I believe that's an Italian flag
• 1:45:31
  there. Sarah Irani and Jasmine
• 1:45:34
  Paulolini getting the victory over Serbian and some other
• 1:45:41
  Vulcan, Vulcan flat countries flag.
• 1:45:45
  I'm American. Geography here, guys.
• 1:45:48
  I apologize. It's not easy.
• 1:45:51
  Yeah, a lot of flags, man. A lot of countries.
• 1:45:55
  Out there for real. For real.
• 1:45:58
  That's a little Tennis News. Caveman, what else we got going?
• 1:46:01
  On in the world of Mixed Martial Arts, I was looking over here at
• 1:46:04
  UFC 3/16. We had two pretty good.
• 1:46:08
  Title matches, in these ones, it was Merab and Sean O'Malley
• 1:46:13
  going at it and then we had Juliana Pena versus Kayla
• 1:46:17
  Harrison. We had Merab winning by
• 1:46:19
  submission and we had a another second round submission for
• 1:46:25
  Kayla. And those two title matches,
• 1:46:28
  they, they're really able to control it 'cause they're both
• 1:46:30
  just maulers, extreme, extremely great wrestlers and can just
• 1:46:35
  control the ground game against their opponent.
• 1:46:37
  I mean, if you can survive one submission against these dudes
• 1:46:42
  with these two, I mean, you're, you're pretty good.
• 1:46:44
  But we had an Amanda Nunez appearance at the end of that
• 1:46:48
  Kayla Harrison fight. So we could be seeing a could be
• 1:46:52
  seeing a good return to the UFC for those bantamweight, just
• 1:46:57
  bantamweight championship. OK, nice.
• 1:46:59
  As far as it goes for men's bantamweight.
• 1:47:01
  I mean, Murab is going to control.
• 1:47:03
  This division for. Quite some time until we get
• 1:47:06
  another just another competitor as fierce as he is, man.
• 1:47:11
  I mean, he'll look at his picture right here on ESPN.
• 1:47:14
  He's just ragdoll in him. He he didn't even look tired
• 1:47:17
  after he submitted him either in three rounds.
• 1:47:20
  He tried the same choke on him twice in this one fight too.
• 1:47:25
  I mean we had pretty action-packed main events in
• 1:47:28
  these two as far as it goes for the rest of them.
• 1:47:32
  I mean people are not really too happy with the rest of the card
• 1:47:36
  at USC 316 kind of saying that it just kind of lacked a lot of
• 1:47:40
  the hype, at least the the the star power that the rest of the
• 1:47:46
  card did. But for me I.
• 1:47:48
  Mean it's UFC, it's good. Either way, but you can't really
• 1:47:51
  complain. Some fights are pretty slow
• 1:47:53
  paced, you know, they don't really move as as fast or there
• 1:47:56
  isn't really a knockout in there, but still a lot of
• 1:48:00
  technicality, a lot of good things are happening in the
• 1:48:03
  fights. 316 man Merab Kayla Kayla.
• 1:48:08
  Henderson taking over men. 'S and women's bantamweight.
• 1:48:11
  I saw what you sent me of that Kayla fight.
• 1:48:16
  She's gone there. I'll include the voice over.
• 1:48:20
  Yeah, I mean, she got her opponent on the ground and just
• 1:48:23
  be there in that pace basically. That was it was kind of insane.
• 1:48:26
  I mean, it's pretty well working strategy the past few years, the
• 1:48:31
  UFC, that's worked out pretty well all.
• 1:48:33
  Right well, from the Octagon back over to the heart.
• 1:48:38
  Was WNBA season is in full swing?
• 1:48:42
  We haven't, we haven't had as much time to cover as much of
• 1:48:46
  it. So we're going to drop in and
• 1:48:48
  tell you what's going on here. The Dallas Wings, bad news.
• 1:48:53
  Pagebackers didn't All your problems, you're 1 and 9.
• 1:48:56
  They did not fix their their issues.
• 1:48:58
  Yeah. Rick Goombawale, still your
• 1:49:02
  leading scorer, backers back there with 14.7 points per game.
• 1:49:07
  Yeah, solid contributions. He's averaging about 6.7
• 1:49:10
  assists, 4.7 rebounds, but the rest of this team is got a block
• 1:49:18
  for. Game too.
• 1:49:19
  Still. Still.
• 1:49:19
  Leaves a lot to be desired. It's it's.
• 1:49:22
  A goomba Wale the leading. Point scorer Misha Hines, Allen
• 1:49:27
  leading rebound there, then pagebacker is is your top of
• 1:49:30
  sister Steeler and block. So goodness, yeah, that's just
• 1:49:35
  awful. They're as a.
• 1:49:38
  Team shooting pretty. Bad like 41 percent and 31% from
• 1:49:43
  3. So not Yeah, not exactly great
• 1:49:47
  stuff out of the wings this season.
• 1:49:52
  Unfortunate for them. Little lone win coming against
• 1:49:55
  the Sun. Who are?
• 1:49:56
  No better lowly 2 and seven. No better at all.
• 1:50:00
  The sparks. I thought we're going to be a
• 1:50:02
  little bit better this year. Maybe when they get healthy and
• 1:50:06
  they'll turn it around. Right now they're three and
• 1:50:07
  seven. But right now it's the the
• 1:50:11
  Liberty and the Links, the two teams from the finals last year
• 1:50:17
  dominating both teams. 9. And O I'm sure that'll probably
• 1:50:21
  change when they get the chance to play each other.
• 1:50:23
  Phoenix Mercury and Atlanta Dream, I think the Dream are one
• 1:50:27
  team to look out for. They're pretty good solid.
• 1:50:31
  And they still got they still got Ryan.
• 1:50:33
  Howard but I think. It's honestly going to be their
• 1:50:36
  number one scoring option going throughout the rest of the
• 1:50:39
  season and I'm OK with putting that opportunity in her hands.
• 1:50:43
  It's a great scoring option for them early in the year.
• 1:50:45
  They're really going to or I think they could stick to it.
• 1:50:49
  This is a good start. She's coming back off an injury
• 1:50:52
  too, so they got rebuilding that one girl that she won all the
• 1:50:56
  the skills challenges for the. The All Star game, Chelsea
• 1:51:01
  something if I'm not mistaken. Oh man, let's see, let's see.
• 1:51:09
  I got the roster pulled up here. Maybe not.
• 1:51:13
  She might have walked then. Tahina Pow.
• 1:51:15
  Pow Rookie. For them I.
• 1:51:17
  Like that, That was a good draft.
• 1:51:19
  Guard don't forget Brittany Grinder they brought in there.
• 1:51:22
  Off of the the offseason, so they got a pretty good, pretty
• 1:51:26
  big front, front court and then their back court.
• 1:51:29
  A lot of good shooting right there.
• 1:51:32
  I think it might have been Jordan Canada I was thinking of,
• 1:51:36
  but I did aggress. What team though I think is
• 1:51:39
  going to be really good. You might be wondering how the
• 1:51:44
  Atlanta or the Indiana Fever are doing rather.
• 1:51:48
  I'm pretty sure Caitlin Clark right now and dealing with
• 1:51:51
  something with injured. Yeah, so first time in her
• 1:51:55
  career she's missing anything but they're.
• 1:51:58
  Definitely they got themselves if they can just weather the
• 1:52:00
  storm get. Back in the being.
• 1:52:03
  In prime post season position, you've got the Aces a little
• 1:52:10
  struggling somewhat. 4 and three.
• 1:52:13
  They just seem to be trying to get their groove together,
• 1:52:17
  trying to fill in the the absence of Kelsey Plum that
• 1:52:20
  doesn't. Yeah, they've got some gaps.
• 1:52:22
  They've got some gaps, certainly.
• 1:52:25
  Helps or is is hurting them there?
• 1:52:28
  But Asia Wilson still just dominating, Yeah, just, I mean,
• 1:52:35
  now that Kelsey's not there, she's just.
• 1:52:38
  Carrying. On every statistical category
• 1:52:41
  for him, she's her leading scorer, rebound their sister,
• 1:52:46
  most steals per game and most blocks per game.
• 1:52:49
  Just kind of doing everything. Got some good guards, you know,
• 1:52:54
  Jackie Young, Chelsea Gray Jewel lie boy, they can step up and
• 1:52:58
  really be that, you know, elite number two option for them there
• 1:53:05
  and just give Aja some help. So I'm not liking the what I'm
• 1:53:09
  seeing on Jackie Young like to see her.
• 1:53:11
  You know, she I mean not her, but Chelsea Gray be leading with
• 1:53:18
  all the point assists because she used to be the WNBA's point
• 1:53:21
  God, but bit of a fall from grace there.
• 1:53:25
  I'll say the Valkyries. Are another team.
• 1:53:29
  Definitely could be very very. Exciting people are stoked up
• 1:53:34
  there too Their their arenas are selling out quite nicely.
• 1:53:37
  Newest. Addition into the WNBA, the
• 1:53:41
  Western Conference. I mean, they got a good, good
• 1:53:44
  colorway and logo, good location for basketball.
• 1:53:49
  They're definitely going to be a good market in this league for
• 1:53:52
  sure. Got some a pretty decent year.
• 1:53:55
  They got some exciting young players too.
• 1:53:57
  Caleb Thornton, Veronica. Burton Tiffany Hayes, an
• 1:54:04
  exciting sort of international prospect in the Cecilia Zandel
• 1:54:09
  Lassini. So what?
• 1:54:13
  Yeah, Having fun watching this team.
• 1:54:16
  I think they'll probably just miss out on the playoffs this
• 1:54:18
  year. But like, it's a young squad
• 1:54:20
  that just, you know, new city and everything.
• 1:54:24
  Not a ton of experience between any of those players there.
• 1:54:27
  That's just literally change and grow as that team gets better.
• 1:54:31
  But they're already, they're having a pretty good start to
• 1:54:33
  their early existence, you know, their young years as a team.
• 1:54:41
  It's kind of a they're a team. That I think I thought would be
• 1:54:44
  in a particular spot. Similar to the Chicago Sky as
• 1:54:48
  where they're at right now, 2:00 and 6:00, kind of looking like a
• 1:54:53
  team that really just getting started because they have a lot
• 1:54:57
  of really good draft prospects on this team.
• 1:55:00
  They got Courtney van der Sloot, Haley Van Lis, Angel Reese,
• 1:55:05
  Michaela Onion. Ware is solid, Camilla Cardoza,
• 1:55:09
  solid, solid. This team's really good.
• 1:55:14
  I don't understand, just can't put it together right now.
• 1:55:17
  They just can't get it. They have a lot of veterans on
• 1:55:21
  here too. That's a young team that has
• 1:55:24
  good. Veteran pieces I can, really.
• 1:55:27
  Get it going. Well, I'm looking ahead.
• 1:55:33
  Unfortunately, the Lynx and the Liberty aren't.
• 1:55:35
  Going to play for. A while highly.
• 1:55:37
  Unlikely that they're both undefeated by the time that
• 1:55:40
  rolls around. So now I'm looking like, who is
• 1:55:43
  it going to dethrone the Lynx? First, the upcoming opponents.
• 1:55:47
  They got Seattle in Seattle next.
• 1:55:50
  That's tonight, maybe at home against Vegas.
• 1:55:56
  Or at the dream. I can be.
• 1:55:59
  Those are where my I'm most likely see them going down.
• 1:56:03
  Liberty. Next game Saturday, they've got
• 1:56:09
  the good old. Indiana fever, then next Tuesday
• 1:56:13
  will be the dream, then Mercury, and then Seattle Storm.
• 1:56:18
  I mean, honestly, out of those four, the Atlanta Dream honestly
• 1:56:23
  could potentially give them that first loss to a team that they
• 1:56:26
  see a lot in in the regular season.
• 1:56:29
  So that could be a really good back and forth series throughout
• 1:56:33
  the regular season between those between these two teams.
• 1:56:37
  They maybe even the Valkyries get it.
• 1:56:39
  Come on, the new, the new new young guns out there.
• 1:56:45
  Yeah, I don't know a lot that. Probably won't happen.
• 1:56:48
  We'll see. Well, again, long season.
• 1:56:51
  We'll be keeping you updated as it goes along.
• 1:56:55
  Came in, you got any other Sports News you wanted to throw
• 1:56:58
  out in the world before we we head on, Let's see.
• 1:57:04
  You know what? We're going to check cricket
• 1:57:06
  real quick. See what's going on with
• 1:57:07
  cricket. I'll check cricket real quick.
• 1:57:09
  I love it, you madman. We're going, we're going way off
• 1:57:12
  the. Game on live.
• 1:57:14
  Right now, Australia is winning against.
• 1:57:18
  I think Saudi Arabia 212 to 19, oh it's South Africa trails by
• 1:57:25
  193 runs currently right now is that which is actually how
• 1:57:31
  cricket's scoring works. Is the final.
• 1:57:33
  Score of this game. Right here, South Africa versus
• 1:57:37
  I think this is, let's just click on it here.
• 1:57:41
  Who is this West Indies? The final score of this game was
• 1:57:49
  200. And 20 and 211 to 332 and 100
• 1:57:57
  and a third. And South Africa won.
• 1:58:03
  This by 7 wickets. Somehow.
• 1:58:05
  They won by 7 wickets. This kind of sounds like Harry
• 1:58:09
  Potter Quidditch at this point I want to figure.
• 1:58:12
  Out what's going on terminology to me but yeah brother let's
• 1:58:17
  leading scorer right now for less West Indies.
• 1:58:20
  Right now, Andre Fletcher. He's he's leading the entire
• 1:58:23
  cricket world right now and and goals 240 points score by the
• 1:58:28
  man Got 2 minutes. Before we sign off, let's go.
• 1:58:30
  One last thing we're gonna do one down in ESPN.
• 1:58:33
  Power rankings of the top 10 college football teams so far.
• 1:58:36
  Crimson Tide at 10. Tennessee Volunteers at 9.
• 1:58:41
  LSU Tigers at 8. Clemson Tigers at 7:00.
• 1:58:45
  Got the Nittany Lions at Penn State at six, the Fighting Irish
• 1:58:48
  at 5. Shout out Jimmy covers.
• 1:58:49
  Oregon Ducks at 4. Georgia Bulldogs at 3.
• 1:58:54
  Ohio State Buckeyes at 2:00. And the Texas.
• 1:58:56
  Longhorns at #1 kind of makes certainty, bro.
• 1:59:01
  I would I would put Clemson at 5 though.
• 1:59:04
  I think Clemson, they're going to be a, they're going to be a
• 1:59:08
  unit next year that's going to be a real good team.
• 1:59:11
  They're going to dominate the ACC, in my opinion and go deep
• 1:59:14
  into the College Football Playoff.
• 1:59:16
