• 1:11
  Speaker 3: key to that building, and now I'm at the new
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: House School of Broadcasting and legends have graduated from this place,
• 1:18
  Speaker 3: Legends like Sean McDonough, like Marv Albert like Kenny Albert,
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: like I an Eagle, I don't belong here, and so
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: but this is funny, is he? I was thinking about this.
• 1:29
  Speaker 3: Had I gone to a school like this, man, would
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: I be good at broadcasting? Oh my god, the facility's here.
• 1:37
  Speaker 5: Oh, just because of the facilities, I was gonna say,
• 1:39
  Speaker 5: you sure.
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: The teachers? Yeah, you know.
• 1:44
  Speaker 5: I don't really know what's happening today. It feels like
• 1:46
  Speaker 5: a throwback Thursday on a Friday, because I was at
• 1:51
  Speaker 5: home earlier and I saw Skip Bayless on first take
• 1:54
  Speaker 5: with stephen A, and I was like, that's weird. And
• 1:56
  Speaker 5: then it's me effectively kind of working with College and
• 2:00
  Speaker 5: again like we did in the ESPN days.
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: That's weird.
• 2:02
  Speaker 5: The amount of times that I was on what's the
• 2:04
  Speaker 5: segment spanning the Globe? I mean, I felt like I
• 2:07
  Speaker 5: was a regular on College's old show. Yeah, and then yeah,
• 2:10
  Speaker 5: you walk in here and like, I don't know what's
• 2:12
  Speaker 5: going on. Taylor's wearing a Miami Dolphins shirt. It's very confusing.
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: Why are you wearing a Dolphin shirt? Taylor?
• 2:18
  Speaker 6: Just a laundry day, I had this shirt. So I
• 2:21
  Speaker 6: was Mac Collins's roommate in college, So I really just
• 2:24
  Speaker 6: cheer for whatever team Mac Collins is on came. Throughout
• 2:27
  Speaker 6: the years, I've collected a lot of teams Gears, the Raiders,
• 2:31
  Speaker 6: the Dolphins, the Patriots, now the Bills, stint with the Falcons.
• 2:36
  Speaker 6: This just happened to This was just in the rotation.
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: It was the only available shirt, is what you're saying, basically,
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: because the rest is in the laundry, right, I mean.
• 2:45
  Speaker 6: Correct, it wasn't the only available shirt, but it was
• 2:48
  Speaker 6: one of the last few remaining shirts.
• 2:51
  Speaker 5: You know what's do And sometimes even that, right, there
• 2:53
  Speaker 5: is a sign like sometimes you wake up in the
• 2:55
  Speaker 5: day and it's just like there's a sign your day's
• 2:58
  Speaker 5: going to be bad. And I kind of knew today,
• 3:00
  Speaker 5: maybe not bad, but weird because I woke up this
• 3:03
  Speaker 5: morning and my water flosster exploded in my face.
• 3:07
  Speaker 4: Wow.
• 3:08
  Speaker 5: And does your day ever really start well when it's
• 3:11
  Speaker 5: something exploded in your face? Put that on the pole,
• 3:13
  Speaker 5: tailor does your day ever start well when something explodes
• 3:16
  Speaker 5: in your face?
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: Here's what I'll tell you. It could only get better though,
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: That's it. I mean, it could only get better from there, right.
• 3:22
  Speaker 5: Well, then it got immediately worse because yeah, I mean,
• 3:26
  Speaker 5: I don't know how many people experience this, but probably
• 3:29
  Speaker 5: a lot.
• 3:30
  Speaker 7: Uh.
• 3:30
  Speaker 5: I got to the gym and I was the least
• 3:33
  Speaker 5: fit person in the room, and it made me very angry.
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: Welcome to my life, like all of our lives.
• 3:40
  Speaker 5: I was like, at least I can go to my getaway,
• 3:43
  Speaker 5: you know, my place where I don't have to think.
• 3:45
  Speaker 5: And I walk in and it's like, I don't know,
• 3:48
  Speaker 5: a fitness show, just like a muscle lifting show, and
• 3:50
  Speaker 5: I'm just like, what is going on today?
• 3:52
  Speaker 6: I was gonna ask who's in the room? Adonison and
• 3:55
  Speaker 6: rock bell Boat.
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: It was two.
• 3:57
  Speaker 5: People that I had to ask. Once they left, I
• 3:59
  Speaker 5: was like, are those two Florida Panthers players that I
• 4:01
  Speaker 5: don't recognize? Because that's ridiculous?
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: Is he call me?
• 4:06
  Speaker 4: When you're the least fit person that walks into a McDonald.
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: That's what you feel bad for? Exactly? You went Rocky?
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: There?
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: Is that what you did? Taylor? Rocky Balboa?
• 4:19
  Speaker 6: Yeah, Adonna's apollo, Creed's son. I went a little Creed too.
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: No, I realized that Adonna's was perfect. It's the Rocky Balboa.
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: I'm questioning Rodet for perhaps Rocky four. He was Chiseled.
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: I mean, listen, you go to Siberia and you work out,
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: you're trying to take down Drago. That's the best shape
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: Stallone has ever been in. I'm serious. It's the greatest
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: workout seed in the history of movies period. End of discussion.
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: It's just him and the elements. How about that?
• 4:50
  Speaker 5: And getting back to your your points to if you
• 4:52
  Speaker 5: went to Syracuse, I think you would still be this
• 4:56
  Speaker 5: level of successful broadcasting, which is wildly successful.
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: No, I've had a great ride, considering that I have
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: no schooling. In this a great ride. I'm just imagining
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: what kind of ride I would have had had I
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: had actual schooling. If I had facilities like this and
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: I had great teachers in a great alumni base that
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: I could work, how much better the career. But I
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: would say it's nearly impossible to top the career that
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: I've had doing this for over forty years. I replaced Colin.
• 5:26
  Speaker 5: Well, I'm not gonna right.
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: Well, listen, I mean he left. He was doing ten
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: to one at ESPN. We were doing afternoons. He left.
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: We took over that slot, and I do remember saying
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: on the air, I was trying because I wanted ten
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: to one. I think that's the best slot in radio,
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: especially for national radio, because stations taking inside the business.
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: Here local stations want to run their morning and afternoon drive.
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: Where you get the clearance is in the middays. Plus
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: you're done, your day is done at one o'clock. And
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: so I remember going out of my way telling Colin
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: on the air, not directly to him, although I know
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: Colin and I've spoken to him. I remember saying trying
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: to convince him to leave ESPN Radio, not because it
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: was good for him, but because it was good for me.
• 6:20
  Speaker 5: And I'm sure now.
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: And then what he did. I immediately and we took
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: over ten to one. I changed all my fantasy teams
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: to two pm t tot how about that?
• 6:32
  Speaker 5: And I'm sure he's so happy somewhere as we're starting
• 6:34
  Speaker 5: off filling in for him that we're going deep inside
• 6:36
  Speaker 5: radio right to start?
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: Yes? Is he okay? By the way, Colin loves to
• 6:40
  Speaker 3: go deep inside radio. He does. He was talking about
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: the industry and the business. Yeah, is Colin okay? There
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: was like he was transportation. There was an accident, you know,
• 6:50
  Speaker 3: we we failed to make the joke yesterday when we
• 6:52
  Speaker 3: found out he was supposed to join us. That Colin
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: heard the news that we were filling in and he
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: drove his car off the road.
• 7:00
  Speaker 6: So I believe Colin was on a train yesterday. Okay,
• 7:03
  Speaker 6: he takes a train to his car, but Colin Colin
• 7:06
  Speaker 6: is okay, this was already a scheduled off day. The
• 7:10
  Speaker 6: hiccup yesterday was I believe his train hit a car
• 7:15
  Speaker 6: or a car hit his train, and then Colin had
• 7:18
  Speaker 6: to get an uber from said train station and he
• 7:22
  Speaker 6: was gonna miss the time that he was supposed to join.
• 7:24
  Speaker 6: But that's neither here nor there. He was never supposed
• 7:26
  Speaker 6: to be in today regardless. But I'm curious how his
• 7:30
  Speaker 6: listeners are listening to the show and be like, these
• 7:32
  Speaker 6: guys are ever gonna get to basketball?
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: Where's the hay on?
• 7:35
  Speaker 5: This is not what I come to the Herd for.
• 7:38
  Speaker 3: We're gonna get to Sean McDonough in a couple of minutes.
• 7:41
  Speaker 3: We will get to basketball right now. In fact, Jason
• 7:44
  Speaker 3: E p Jason back in Sherman Oaks. If we have
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: that Draymond Green sound again when he was on the
• 7:49
  Speaker 3: set with Charles Barkley, I want to play it for
• 7:51
  Speaker 3: the audience. I want to ask Israel gudyeiras a question,
• 7:55
  Speaker 3: A difficult, a tricky question for Israel. Goudy Era is
• 7:58
  Speaker 3: coming up after we play this out. Here's Raymond Green
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: on the set of T and T with Charles Barkley.
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: Sports are for young people.
• 8:07
  Speaker 5: You hope to have a great, long career, but sports
• 8:11
  Speaker 5: nobody wins when they're thirty seven, thirty eight. That you
• 8:14
  Speaker 5: said what you said, I didn't want to hear if
• 8:16
  Speaker 5: he believes what you're talking.
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I think the goal is just to
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: not look like you in the.
• 8:22
  Speaker 4: Houston Rockets uniform.
• 8:23
  Speaker 6: Yeah, it's ultimately the goal for us, Like we don't want.
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: To What does that look like?
• 8:29
  Speaker 4: Did you see it? I'm just asking I saw it?
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: Is he? Here's the question for you. I realized, Raymond,
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: people don't like him. I get it. He's annoying. He
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: won't stop talking. That's not the thing to say to
• 8:45
  Speaker 3: Charles Barkley when you're sitting on his show, on his
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: set being interviewed by those guys. Okay, it's not right.
• 8:52
  Speaker 3: But I asked you this question because I had this.
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: You know, I had this debate years ago with LeBatard
• 8:59
  Speaker 3: about who whose career do you think Barkley would rather
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: have his own were Robert Orriy's. And then we got
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: Big Shot Bob on the show and he said he
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: would rather have Charles Barkley's career than his own career.
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: But Draymond Green is a lot better historically in terms
• 9:18
  Speaker 3: of career than Robert Orriy. He is, He's a Hall
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: of Famer, He's considered one of the great defensive players
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: we've ever seen in the NBA, and he has won
• 9:27
  Speaker 3: four rings. So I ask you, this is he who's
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: you set out your entire life, you work, you want
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: to play in the NBA, and you get there. Whose
• 9:36
  Speaker 3: career would you rather have Draymond Green's or Charles Barkley's.
• 9:42
  Speaker 5: Well, this one isn't really tricky to me anyway, because, okay,
• 9:46
  Speaker 5: I'll ask you this. I'll answer a question with a question.
• 9:48
  Speaker 5: Is that a cowhard thing? I'm not one hundred percent sure.
• 9:50
  Speaker 5: If it is, I'm sorry for stealing his thing. Does
• 9:54
  Speaker 5: Draymond Green seem happy to you?
• 9:56
  Speaker 8: No?
• 9:57
  Speaker 5: Doesn't he seem defensive at all times? Doesn't he Isn't
• 10:01
  Speaker 5: he the guy who is constantly still still being criticized
• 10:05
  Speaker 5: or being called Steph Curry's backpack. Yep, you think he's
• 10:09
  Speaker 5: happy about that. You think the four rings really really
• 10:13
  Speaker 5: make him happy when he sits there every single day
• 10:16
  Speaker 5: and has to defend himself against people who call him
• 10:19
  Speaker 5: a glorified role player, against people who say that we
• 10:22
  Speaker 5: leave you wide open all the time. There's a reason
• 10:24
  Speaker 5: for that, Steve Martin. And there's no chance that he
• 10:32
  Speaker 5: is completely satisfied with who he is. I'm sorry, Taylor.
• 10:36
  Speaker 5: First segment, that's rough, by the.
• 10:39
  Speaker 3: Way, tell the audience what we were doing a bit
• 10:43
  Speaker 3: and Steve Martin's We were talking about great prop comics
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: of all time and someone said Steve Martin. I said it,
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: you know, three names later, and now it's become a
• 10:51
  Speaker 3: running joke on the show.
• 10:52
  Speaker 5: Anyway, go ahead, So if you repeat what somebody just said,
• 10:54
  Speaker 5: you're just Steve Martin, Steve Morton. But now go to
• 10:59
  Speaker 5: Charles Barkley, right. And while Charles Barkley was an angry
• 11:03
  Speaker 5: player right, threw people out of a bar window, I
• 11:06
  Speaker 5: believe was a guy who always stood up for himself.
• 11:11
  Speaker 5: He seems pretty happy, like he seems pretty satisfied with
• 11:14
  Speaker 5: his life. Like I mean, this is what I was
• 11:16
  Speaker 5: talking about yesterday when I said you know, whether you're
• 11:18
  Speaker 5: Klay Thompson, who is like bragging about having four rings
• 11:22
  Speaker 5: after a breakup, which those two aren't even on the
• 11:24
  Speaker 5: same playing field. And then you've got Draymond Green thinking
• 11:28
  Speaker 5: that his four rings can allow him to be disrespectful
• 11:31
  Speaker 5: to a legend like Charles Barkley. The rings don't define
• 11:35
  Speaker 5: who you are. It's the same way that Draymond Green
• 11:37
  Speaker 5: is not going to be the next Charles Barkley of
• 11:40
  Speaker 5: broadcasting because those four rings aren't gonna make him entertaining.
• 11:44
  Speaker 5: Like he's a good basketball, you know, analyst. He can
• 11:48
  Speaker 5: tell you stuff, you know that they'll tell you when
• 11:50
  Speaker 5: the coaches huddle, but he's not gonna entertain you. That
• 11:53
  Speaker 5: whole Charles Barkley thing was probably supposed to be a
• 11:55
  Speaker 5: joke that just didn't land, and he just tried to,
• 11:57
  Speaker 5: you know, go past it. Kenny Smith was trying to
• 11:59
  Speaker 5: make it funny, but it really wasn't funny. And so
• 12:02
  Speaker 5: in that same respect, I would much rather have Charles
• 12:05
  Speaker 5: Barkley's career and say, look me, as an individual, did
• 12:09
  Speaker 5: all I can do. It's a team sport, it's not tennis.
• 12:13
  Speaker 5: I'm not a failure. And so if you want to
• 12:15
  Speaker 5: call me a failure because Michael Jordan wins six and
• 12:17
  Speaker 5: zero in the finals. Great, that's you creating the ring
• 12:21
  Speaker 5: culture and making it even worse than it already is
• 12:24
  Speaker 5: by saying you're a failure. Right, So I'd much rather
• 12:27
  Speaker 5: have Charles Barkley's career. You know what they say in basketball,
• 12:31
  Speaker 5: stew gats right when you're talking smack to each other.
• 12:34
  Speaker 5: The one thing that you could really land on. Hey,
• 12:36
  Speaker 5: if I play you one on one, I'm gonna kick
• 12:38
  Speaker 5: your butt, right, Draymond Green's not kicking Charles Barkley's anything, Okay,
• 12:42
  Speaker 5: Draymond Green, and one on one will struggle to score
• 12:44
  Speaker 5: against Charles Barkley, even a forty year old Charles Barkley,
• 12:48
  Speaker 5: is he?
• 12:48
  Speaker 3: There were times, though, during Barkley's playing career where people
• 12:51
  Speaker 3: would say the same thing. He doesn't appear to be happy.
• 12:53
  Speaker 3: He's mad, he's angry, he's not winny titles. He's in Philadelphia.
• 12:58
  Speaker 3: He wants to get out of Philadelphia. Eventually did. He
• 13:00
  Speaker 3: went to Phoenix. He led that team to the NBA
• 13:02
  Speaker 3: Finals and lost to Michael Jordan. Because everyone did.
• 13:07
  Speaker 5: So, but he was trying to get there. Draymond already
• 13:10
  Speaker 5: reached the time at four different times, but it's still unhappy.
• 13:13
  Speaker 3: My point in saying all that is, I think where
• 13:15
  Speaker 3: you've seen Barkley be the happiest is with his post career.
• 13:19
  Speaker 3: No one was expecting, not even Charles, for him to
• 13:22
  Speaker 3: turn into what he's turned into in his post NBA career,
• 13:25
  Speaker 3: which is maybe the biggest media member we have going.
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: I mean, he has carte blanche. He could say whatever
• 13:30
  Speaker 3: he wants with no ramifications whatsoever. And Draymond said something
• 13:34
  Speaker 3: to him, and Barkley got upset about it, and everyone
• 13:37
  Speaker 3: is outraged about it coming from the guy who, for
• 13:39
  Speaker 3: his entire career has said anything he's wanted to say.
• 13:42
  Speaker 3: If you could take all the personality stuff and just
• 13:44
  Speaker 3: put it aside for a second resume, side by side
• 13:48
  Speaker 3: you went to the NBA, would you rather have Barkley's
• 13:51
  Speaker 3: career take all the other stuff out of it or
• 13:53
  Speaker 3: Draymond Green? Because I'd rather have Draymond Green's.
• 13:56
  Speaker 5: It's still Barkley. It's still Barkley. If you're asking me,
• 13:58
  Speaker 5: would I rather have Steph Kurry his career at Charles
• 14:00
  Speaker 5: Barkley on here? They have Steph Curry's, But I would
• 14:03
  Speaker 5: rather be Barkley as an individual. It doesn't matter about
• 14:06
  Speaker 5: my personality as an individual if I say I've exhausted
• 14:09
  Speaker 5: not only my ability one thousand percent, and it happened
• 14:14
  Speaker 5: to be one of the best at that in the game.
• 14:17
  Speaker 5: I've done everything I could. Dan Marino's not losing sleep
• 14:21
  Speaker 5: because a GM couldn't get him a running back in
• 14:23
  Speaker 5: the defense. He was the greatest.
• 14:25
  Speaker 6: I think the Draymond Green Charles Barkley conversation is further
• 14:30
  Speaker 6: proof that ring culture has gotten completely out of control.
• 14:34
  Speaker 6: And the most ironic part about ring culture being out
• 14:37
  Speaker 6: of control is on this show we have the Tim Robinson.
• 14:41
  Speaker 6: We're all trying to find the guy who got ring
• 14:43
  Speaker 6: culture out of control, looking right back at us at Studiott's.
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: It's so true. Yeah, but I want you to think
• 14:51
  Speaker 3: about this, Okay. If I told you, okay, you could
• 14:54
  Speaker 3: be Player A, who's defensive Player of the Year. He's
• 14:57
  Speaker 3: going to the Hall of Fame, he plays on legendary
• 15:00
  Speaker 3: teams with Stephan Clay and he wins four titles. Or
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: you could be Player B, doesn't win a ring but
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: is considered one of the twenty greatest NBA players of
• 15:09
  Speaker 3: all time. Which career tailor honestly, which career would you take?
• 15:12
  Speaker 3: Because I take Draymond's.
• 15:14
  Speaker 6: Let me flip this back to you. Player A has
• 15:17
  Speaker 6: eleven rings and is a Hall of Famer. Player B
• 15:20
  Speaker 6: is a Hall of Famer and has six rings. Whose
• 15:22
  Speaker 6: career would you rather have?
• 15:23
  Speaker 4: Uh?
• 15:24
  Speaker 3: Eleven? Uh?
• 15:25
  Speaker 9: No?
• 15:25
  Speaker 4: Six?
• 15:25
  Speaker 6: I'm sorry, got him over Michael Jordan's.
• 15:30
  Speaker 3: You know, yeah, the rule of the show is if
• 15:34
  Speaker 3: I correct myself before you speak again, then I correct myself,
• 15:37
  Speaker 3: and I'm right Jordan's career. Yes.
• 15:40
  Speaker 5: Do you know where you'll never find? Draymond made that
• 15:42
  Speaker 5: up on one of those graphics that say who's gonna
• 15:44
  Speaker 5: beat this squad? He's never going to be on those ever.
• 15:50
  Speaker 3: They don't play one on one though.
• 15:53
  Speaker 5: It doesn't matter, No, no, no, it doesn't matter. I'm saying,
• 15:56
  Speaker 5: like you know, U c O. It's Steph, it's Michael,
• 15:58
  Speaker 5: it's Lebron, it Tim Duncan, and it's Shack versus Magic Johnson,
• 16:05
  Speaker 5: you know, Reggie Miller. And he's never going to be
• 16:07
  Speaker 5: on that graphic because people don't think of him as
• 16:09
  Speaker 5: one of the greats. He's a great defender and a
• 16:12
  Speaker 5: great role player on a great team who has a
• 16:15
  Speaker 5: large mouth.
• 16:16
  Speaker 6: I'm not sure how good Shack would be as a
• 16:18
  Speaker 6: one on one player, because you would think he would
• 16:21
  Speaker 6: have a tough time defending some people like Lebron for me,
• 16:26
  Speaker 6: first ballot, one on one Hall of Fame, Carmelo Anthony.
• 16:29
  Speaker 3: Really wow, better than Jordan, is what you're saying. That's
• 16:34
  Speaker 3: what you're doing there, I mean one on one, I
• 16:36
  Speaker 3: mean iverson.
• 16:38
  Speaker 6: Jordans best player of all time. Carmelo Anthony best bucket
• 16:43
  Speaker 6: getter of all time.
• 16:45
  Speaker 5: That's tough, man. You know what, whenever I get to
• 16:50
  Speaker 5: choose my Mount Rushmore Unday topic, it will be uh
• 16:55
  Speaker 5: basket getters.
• 16:56
  Speaker 4: Of all time?
• 16:57
  Speaker 3: Okay, yes, Mike? Is it just me?
• 16:59
  Speaker 4: Or or was that a heat check by Taylor?
• 17:02
  Speaker 9: That take?
• 17:02
  Speaker 4: Right? There was Taylor chucking one up. Let's just see
• 17:05
  Speaker 4: if I'm going to drain him from half court.
• 17:07
  Speaker 6: Listen when you're on the herd, Yes, stress for the
• 17:09
  Speaker 6: job you want.
• 17:10
  Speaker 3: Yes, and listen to the audience up the herd.

  Speaker 3: So, mikey, I told my friend Sean McDonough I was
• 18:45
  Speaker 3: doing the show today from the New House School. He
• 18:48
  Speaker 3: graduated from Syracuse University, the New House School. He's very
• 18:51
  Speaker 3: proud of that, and he has concerns that I'm going
• 18:54
  Speaker 3: to tarnish the good name here of the New House
• 18:56
  Speaker 3: School at Syracuse, Like, how am I arriving at the
• 18:59
  Speaker 3: same place where you graduated from, Sean McDonough.
• 19:01
  Speaker 8: Well, I'm glad to see you finally got in a
• 19:04
  Speaker 8: new house. You know that this would be the only
• 19:06
  Speaker 8: way that you were able to do it. You know,
• 19:10
  Speaker 8: I'm glad to see that beautiful s orange s behind you.
• 19:14
  Speaker 9: And it's quite a facility, isn't it.
• 19:16
  Speaker 8: In all seriousness, I mean, you can see why young
• 19:20
  Speaker 8: people want to go there in droves, because you know,
• 19:23
  Speaker 8: not only is there the great history, and there's a
• 19:25
  Speaker 8: great program, but the facilities now are top shelf as well.
• 19:28
  Speaker 3: Oh they're amazing. I was telling the folks and the
• 19:30
  Speaker 3: folks who work here are incredible. I was telling Olivia
• 19:33
  Speaker 3: who you know, that if I had these kinds of facilities,
• 19:36
  Speaker 3: I'd actually be good at this.
• 19:38
  Speaker 9: I mean, Olivia is the best.
• 19:42
  Speaker 8: Olivia Stompsky, who runs the New House Sports Media Center
• 19:45
  Speaker 8: up there, does a great job.
• 19:47
  Speaker 9: You know.
• 19:47
  Speaker 8: I've talked to a lot of students over the years
• 19:50
  Speaker 8: who realize how blessed they are to have.
• 19:52
  Speaker 9: Her leading the program too.
• 19:54
  Speaker 8: She's another big part of the reason why it's such
• 19:57
  Speaker 8: a popular program.
• 19:58
  Speaker 3: So I'm up here for my daughter's graduation. What do
• 20:01
  Speaker 3: you remember about your graduation, Shaw McDonough, I remember.
• 20:04
  Speaker 8: Yeah, pretty much went straight there from whatever we were
• 20:08
  Speaker 8: doing the night before.
• 20:13
  Speaker 3: I'm certain you did.
• 20:14
  Speaker 8: Yeah, I'm pretty sure we did. You know, I remember
• 20:17
  Speaker 8: several things. Actually shockingly, Dan Rather was the speaker, right,
• 20:21
  Speaker 8: and you know, he was terrific, and he said several
• 20:25
  Speaker 8: things I remember, one of which was the most important
• 20:30
  Speaker 8: thing I'm going to paraphrase this in life is sincerity,
• 20:35
  Speaker 8: and as soon as you learn how to fake that
• 20:38
  Speaker 8: you're all sad.
• 20:41
  Speaker 3: You got strong enough from a credible news anchor.
• 20:45
  Speaker 9: Yeah, exactly right.
• 20:47
  Speaker 8: So every time I go up there to that beautiful
• 20:49
  Speaker 8: campus where you are right now, and I speak to
• 20:52
  Speaker 8: broadcasting students, I always say the most important thing in
• 20:55
  Speaker 8: broadcasting is sincerity oz pause, pause, and as soon as
• 20:59
  Speaker 8: you learn how to fake that, you're all set. And
• 21:01
  Speaker 8: they all look at me like it's a joke.
• 21:04
  Speaker 9: People, it's a joke. So but I remember the other thing.
• 21:10
  Speaker 8: I remember my dear departed dad, you know, the late
• 21:14
  Speaker 8: great Will McDonough was a great friend of Al Davis,
• 21:18
  Speaker 8: you know, the legendary football man, best known for being
• 21:22
  Speaker 8: the Raiders owner. And when I went to Syracuse there
• 21:26
  Speaker 8: he called a great friend to his doctor, Luke Laporta,
• 21:29
  Speaker 8: who was high up in the development office, and said,
• 21:33
  Speaker 8: this kid, Sean mcdonn is going there. You need to
• 21:35
  Speaker 8: take great care of him while he's theres. I wasn't
• 21:37
  Speaker 8: on campus for a day. The hall of phone ring,
• 21:40
  Speaker 8: some kid knocks on my door. You McDonough, you.
• 21:42
  Speaker 9: Have a call on the house phone, Like, who's calling me?
• 21:44
  Speaker 8: I don't know, Sean. This is Luke Laporta. I'm a
• 21:46
  Speaker 8: great friend of Al Davis. He told me to take
• 21:49
  Speaker 8: great care of you. Come down and see me as
• 21:50
  Speaker 8: soon as you can. So I went down to see him,
• 21:53
  Speaker 8: and for four years Luke was you know, took care
• 21:55
  Speaker 8: of me, and everybody's like my godfather there, including in
• 21:58
  Speaker 8: graduation when he got my family, including my dad a
• 22:03
  Speaker 8: sweet in the carrier. Don't then the carrier, don't now
• 22:07
  Speaker 8: or so Dan Rather at one point said well, you know,
• 22:10
  Speaker 8: stand up and wave at your parents and salute your parents,
• 22:13
  Speaker 8: and you know it's a big dome.
• 22:15
  Speaker 9: So most of my buddies I.
• 22:16
  Speaker 8: Sent with I don't know where my parents and I
• 22:18
  Speaker 8: was like, well, I know where my family is because
• 22:20
  Speaker 8: they're at the big shot box that Luke got us
• 22:22
  Speaker 8: right there. Thank you, Al Davis. So I remember that
• 22:25
  Speaker 8: from my commencement as well. That's about it. The congratulations to.
• 22:29
  Speaker 3: Your daughter, thank you.
• 22:31
  Speaker 8: He's had a great experience there because everybody does. And
• 22:34
  Speaker 8: congratulations to you because you just got about a ninety
• 22:37
  Speaker 8: thousand dollars a year raise.
• 22:38
  Speaker 3: I'm guessing, yes, I look forward to those bills no
• 22:43
  Speaker 3: longer coming to my email.
• 22:44
  Speaker 8: Yes, I barely made it through Syracuse financially back then
• 22:49
  Speaker 8: when it was a lot, you know, less expensive when
• 22:51
  Speaker 8: we were passing the dinosaurs on campus on the way
• 22:54
  Speaker 8: to class, when they were still roaming the earth. And
• 22:57
  Speaker 8: I wouldn't have gotten through where it not for the
• 22:58
  Speaker 8: great help of our late great football coach Dick McPherson.
• 23:01
  Speaker 9: But that's a story for another time.
• 23:03
  Speaker 3: Okay, I will ask you that story at a different time.
• 23:07
  Speaker 3: I am wondering here. So t Rico's doing the commencement speech.
• 23:10
  Speaker 3: I'm excited for that. I have been texting.
• 23:12
  Speaker 8: He's got a boring year, nothing's happening.
• 23:15
  Speaker 3: This will be the least exciting the.
• 23:18
  Speaker 9: Olympics.
• 23:20
  Speaker 8: He needed something to kind of live it up his
• 23:22
  Speaker 8: ear a little bit.
• 23:24
  Speaker 3: He hasn't had enough.
• 23:25
  Speaker 8: Right, he'll do a terrific job. I do hope that
• 23:27
  Speaker 8: they have, you know, some sort of large step stool
• 23:31
  Speaker 8: for him to stand on so you can see the podium.
• 23:33
  Speaker 8: But he will, he will do a fantastic job.
• 23:36
  Speaker 3: Fantastic Is that how it works? So like Syracuse Syracuse
• 23:40
  Speaker 3: ALAM New House alumni, they can only make fun of
• 23:43
  Speaker 3: each other. But if God forbid, Mike Greenberg said that
• 23:46
  Speaker 3: about Mike to Rico, there would be a fight. Right.
• 23:49
  Speaker 9: It's you know, when it comes from people from other universities.
• 23:52
  Speaker 9: It's just jealousy, all right. I say that to Mike
• 23:57
  Speaker 9: od of love.
• 23:58
  Speaker 8: He's a dear friend, but I do love like we
• 24:00
  Speaker 8: all got together up there last fall for the Marty
• 24:03
  Speaker 8: Glickman Award ceremony, and it was Mike and I an eagle,
• 24:07
  Speaker 8: and Marv and Bob Costas. I felt like Wilt Chamberlain.
• 24:13
  Speaker 8: I am five nine and a quarter and I tower
• 24:17
  Speaker 8: over that. So there must have been something in the
• 24:20
  Speaker 8: water up there that stunted our growth.
• 24:23
  Speaker 3: But you were broke over being as maternity that you're
• 24:28
  Speaker 3: really proudly you know.
• 24:29
  Speaker 8: When you get up there and Olivia says to you,
• 24:31
  Speaker 8: you're gonna be on a panel with Marv and Bob
• 24:33
  Speaker 8: and I an eagle, You're like three apples in an orange,
• 24:36
  Speaker 8: which one of us doesn't belong here, you know, but
• 24:39
  Speaker 8: I'm happy to be included.
• 24:41
  Speaker 3: You'll take any room in which you're the tallest person
• 24:43
  Speaker 3: in that I should say three oranges and an apple,
• 24:45
  Speaker 3: right right, yes, yes, So how long? So I've been
• 24:50
  Speaker 3: texting withinto Rico and trying to negotiate a shorter speech.
• 24:55
  Speaker 8: There's no chances, there's no chance you've see the way
• 24:59
  Speaker 8: Mike prepares for everything, you know.
• 25:01
  Speaker 9: And I've jabbed him a few times over.
• 25:03
  Speaker 8: There's one time he was doing the Orange Bowl and
• 25:06
  Speaker 8: I think it was Stanford. I had been Jim harboss
• 25:08
  Speaker 8: last game in Stanford, and Conda Leeza Rice, you know,
• 25:10
  Speaker 8: faculty member in Stanford, was on the sideline. They showed
• 25:13
  Speaker 8: her and Mike was doing the game and he said,
• 25:15
  Speaker 8: there's the sixty sixth Secretary of State of the United
• 25:19
  Speaker 8: ANIMI who knows the numb I mean, we all barely
• 25:22
  Speaker 8: know what number of the presidents are and so the
• 25:27
  Speaker 8: details now you're just showing off like that's a bunch
• 25:29
  Speaker 8: of bs. Right, So he will be very well prepared,
• 25:33
  Speaker 8: and I would not bet on it being brief. It'll
• 25:36
  Speaker 8: be great, it'll be insightful, it'll be interesting, funny, I'm sure,
• 25:40
  Speaker 8: but I would I would take the over on brevity.
• 25:43
  Speaker 3: Okay over thirty minutes you sir?
• 25:45
  Speaker 8: Yeah, were's some comfortable clothing. Well, I don't know whatever
• 25:48
  Speaker 8: they told him to be. I'm sure he'll be right
• 25:52
  Speaker 8: on time because he's probably rehearsed it ten times to
• 25:55
  Speaker 8: make sure it's right on time. Yes, I do one commencement, well,
• 25:59
  Speaker 8: I'll two. I couldn't do the one right, I was
• 26:01
  Speaker 8: asked to do this year, but I did one for
• 26:06
  Speaker 8: Southern Vermont College.
• 26:08
  Speaker 3: Oh.
• 26:08
  Speaker 8: I told me, we'd like you to speak for twenty
• 26:10
  Speaker 8: to twenty five minutes. I'm like, no one wants. I
• 26:12
  Speaker 8: don't want to hear myself speak for twenty to twenty
• 26:15
  Speaker 8: So I got into about fifteen minutes. And it was
• 26:18
  Speaker 8: on this hillside in Bennington, Vermont.
• 26:21
  Speaker 9: So there were.
• 26:22
  Speaker 8: People that were there was a tent, and some people
• 26:25
  Speaker 8: were in the tent, like the president of the school
• 26:28
  Speaker 8: and some other people. And then but there were a
• 26:30
  Speaker 8: lot of people on the hillslope and I couldn't see
• 26:32
  Speaker 8: all of them because they went up the hill. And
• 26:34
  Speaker 8: I'm already thinking in my mind, this speech is too long.
• 26:37
  Speaker 8: I knew I shouldn't have tried to go for twenty
• 26:39
  Speaker 8: minutes whatever. And all of a sudden I heard and
• 26:42
  Speaker 8: it was a thunderstorm. Was people were running down the
• 26:45
  Speaker 8: hill into the tent, and I said, literally, this is
• 26:48
  Speaker 8: God's way of telling me this speech is too long.
• 26:50
  Speaker 8: Good luck, congratulations, I'm sure you'll all do great. Let's
• 26:53
  Speaker 8: give them their diplomas. Done so, and then my question
• 26:59
  Speaker 8: to you guys is you know I've got the Doctor
• 27:03
  Speaker 8: of Humane Letters. I got all the whatever you call
• 27:06
  Speaker 8: the outfit with the hat and the tassel, and the
• 27:11
  Speaker 8: college went out of business, which is probably why I
• 27:16
  Speaker 8: have not been invited to only one other school since.
• 27:20
  Speaker 8: So am I still a Doctor of Humane Letters?
• 27:24
  Speaker 3: Wow? For a school that doesn't exist anymore.
• 27:26
  Speaker 9: School that it existed at the time.
• 27:28
  Speaker 8: Yes, I mean, God, for been Harvard went out of business,
• 27:31
  Speaker 8: you'd still be a Harvard grad, right, I mean, that's
• 27:33
  Speaker 8: at least that's what I'm going with.
• 27:36
  Speaker 3: It's Mikey, what do you think. It's a great question.
• 27:38
  Speaker 3: Do you have a ruling here?
• 27:39
  Speaker 4: No, they can't take that away from you. You have it.
• 27:41
  Speaker 4: It's it's yours.
• 27:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah, they can't take that from here.
• 27:44
  Speaker 9: They can take the school, have the hat. I'm claiming it.
• 27:50
  Speaker 3: You're kissing death, but done up.
• 27:52
  Speaker 9: I know. I put the school out of business.
• 27:54
  Speaker 8: My friend who had just invited me to speak at
• 27:58
  Speaker 8: another commencement, which I can't do because it's next weekend
• 28:00
  Speaker 8: and we're gonna be in the middle of the hockey playoffs,
• 28:03
  Speaker 8: I said, I'm very honored. In the interest of full disclosure,
• 28:07
  Speaker 8: the only school I did this for went out of business.
• 28:10
  Speaker 8: So how's the financial health of your school. You know,
• 28:14
  Speaker 8: we possibly survive the fact that I'm going to be
• 28:17
  Speaker 8: your commencement speaker and the history is not good.
• 28:20
  Speaker 11: Yes, Sean, it's said to me as a Yankee fan,
• 28:23
  Speaker 11: what's become of the Red Sox? Because I missed the
• 28:25
  Speaker 11: rivalry our our executive producer, there was no need to
• 28:29
  Speaker 11: say that.
• 28:30
  Speaker 3: I mean it was need.
• 28:33
  Speaker 9: Now we wouldn't be listening to this going.
• 28:36
  Speaker 11: Somewhere with I was going somewhere with it if you
• 28:39
  Speaker 11: let me, if you didn't interrupt me, I.
• 28:43
  Speaker 4: No, Stu got's interrupted me. You just talked.
• 28:47
  Speaker 11: Our Taylor, our executive producer. Uh could not root for
• 28:52
  Speaker 11: Roman Anthony during the World Baseball Classic, like what he
• 28:56
  Speaker 11: was rooting for Team USA until Roman Anthony got up
• 28:59
  Speaker 11: and then he earned his back on.
• 29:02
  Speaker 8: That then he became he became a Mexican.
• 29:07
  Speaker 3: Yes, but I imagine I do imagine Red Sox fans maybe
• 29:10
  Speaker 3: did the same thing to Aaron Judge, Like they wanted
• 29:12
  Speaker 3: USA to win, but they didn't want to hurt Judge.
• 29:14
  Speaker 8: Would the reason hit they wanted to hit him to
• 29:17
  Speaker 8: take a fast ball off the helmet and then get
• 29:19
  Speaker 8: to get hurt.
• 29:20
  Speaker 9: I don't know. I was cheering for all of them.
• 29:23
  Speaker 3: Yes, me too.
• 29:24
  Speaker 8: I'm not allowed to say this, but uh, you know,
• 29:27
  Speaker 8: I do not wish ill upon the Yankees because I
• 29:31
  Speaker 8: did at least one season of Monday Night Baseball. I
• 29:33
  Speaker 8: think too, with Aaron Boone, who is as decent a
• 29:37
  Speaker 8: human being as I've ever met doing this. I mean,
• 29:39
  Speaker 8: I've worked with over one hundred people. I think it's
• 29:42
  Speaker 8: one hundred and fifty different people, analysts, Sideline report, hosts, whatever,
• 29:47
  Speaker 8: in all these different sports, and Aaron Boone is at
• 29:50
  Speaker 8: the top of the list. I mean, he is a
• 29:52
  Speaker 8: great guy. I think he's a really smart baseball guy.
• 29:56
  Speaker 8: I know Yankee fans like to dump on him, and
• 29:57
  Speaker 8: there's a lot of people who thought he shouldn't be
• 29:59
  Speaker 8: back this year, but you know, maybe this is their year.
• 30:02
  Speaker 8: But yeah, so I don't I don't wish any ill
• 30:06
  Speaker 8: upon the Yankees because I'm a huge.
• 30:09
  Speaker 4: Aaron Boone fan.
• 30:10
  Speaker 3: All Right, we're gonna get you John Sterling, by the way,
• 30:13
  Speaker 3: Oh yes, yes, yeah. We had Mike Francesa on talking
• 30:17
  Speaker 3: about John Sterling and what he meant to that fan
• 30:19
  Speaker 3: base and just what it's like. Sean. It's incredible the
• 30:22
  Speaker 3: impact you could have, especially on a fan base like yours.
• 30:25
  Speaker 3: They they love John Sterling. I'm certain Boston fans love you.
• 30:29
  Speaker 3: But did you have any interactions with John Sterling.
• 30:31
  Speaker 8: I'm sure you've clenty it over all these years. You know,
• 30:34
  Speaker 8: he did it for thirty six years, and I was
• 30:35
  Speaker 8: around the Red Sox for a lot of those.
• 30:37
  Speaker 9: You know, he was just, uh, I read the.
• 30:40
  Speaker 8: Word eccentric, eccentricities, you know a lot of the articles
• 30:44
  Speaker 8: and tributes, and you know that's really true. You know,
• 30:48
  Speaker 8: he was a He was a real character in a
• 30:50
  Speaker 8: world that is increasingly devoid of characters. And he just
• 30:55
  Speaker 8: always seemed to me to be a guy who was
• 30:58
  Speaker 8: always performing. You know, like even in a conversation, regular conversation.
• 31:02
  Speaker 8: You'd be walking down the hallway in the press box
• 31:04
  Speaker 8: and Fenway or Yankee Stadium, and you know, it was
• 31:09
  Speaker 8: he didn't.
• 31:09
  Speaker 9: Just walk up, Hey, how you doing.
• 31:10
  Speaker 8: It was always hello, Shannie, you know, in that voice,
• 31:13
  Speaker 8: and you know it was kind of theatrical, and you
• 31:18
  Speaker 8: know you saw it in all the tributes the last
• 31:20
  Speaker 8: few days. I think everybody who knew John really appreciated him.
• 31:23
  Speaker 8: He had a great heart and you know, obviously a
• 31:26
  Speaker 8: legendary career when they start asking out loud, should announcers
• 31:30
  Speaker 8: be in monument park. I think that says a lot
• 31:32
  Speaker 8: about the impact that he had.
• 31:35
  Speaker 3: We're going to get you out of here in just
• 31:36
  Speaker 3: a second. I know you have to go golfing.
• 31:38
  Speaker 9: I think you're a getting the hook I saw you
• 31:40
  Speaker 9: to given like Olivia or somebody.
• 31:41
  Speaker 3: Well, you know, Olivia is just being patient with me.
• 31:44
  Speaker 3: She's making sure that we're connected to the radio station
• 31:46
  Speaker 3: here because I had.
• 31:46
  Speaker 8: To Oh, well that's important. Yes, yes, this is important,
• 31:50
  Speaker 8: but you have bigger fish to fry.
• 31:52
  Speaker 3: No, no, I don't have bigger fish to fry. This
• 31:54
  Speaker 3: is important. Though. The question I'm about to ask you
• 31:56
  Speaker 3: was what's important? Okay, Mikey knows. We started playing this
• 31:59
  Speaker 3: game around here called one Table. So there's one table
• 32:04
  Speaker 3: in the restaurant, and Tom Brady in his prime, walks
• 32:08
  Speaker 3: in round. Any time, it's Tom Brady. Okay, I'm trying
• 32:12
  Speaker 3: to think of the per I'm gonna go, Oh, Mike,
• 32:14
  Speaker 3: he wants me to go Poppy. I'm gonna go Tom Brady,
• 32:17
  Speaker 3: Larry Bird. They both walk in, one table is left.
• 32:21
  Speaker 3: Who gets the table?
• 32:24
  Speaker 8: Uh?
• 32:25
  Speaker 9: Now that happened today?
• 32:27
  Speaker 3: Yeah, well yes, today today it's a tough one.
• 32:32
  Speaker 9: Yeah, I'd say it's a really tough one.
• 32:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 32:36
  Speaker 4: Tom Brady is kind of.
• 32:39
  Speaker 9: Checked anybody off.
• 32:40
  Speaker 8: Yeah, whereas you know, Tom, I don't begrudge Tom the
• 32:44
  Speaker 8: right to leave or you know, in some ways he
• 32:47
  Speaker 8: was kind of shoved out right and go win.
• 32:50
  Speaker 9: I think he proved his point.
• 32:51
  Speaker 8: You know, if we're talking about who was the most
• 32:53
  Speaker 8: important person to the Patriots success, all this year's Brady
• 32:56
  Speaker 8: belichicker Craft when he left and went to Tampa Bay
• 33:00
  Speaker 8: and won a Super Bowl. Okay, could we stop having
• 33:02
  Speaker 8: that conversation, you know, and and the whole Belichick record
• 33:06
  Speaker 8: with Brady without you know, at a certain point you
• 33:10
  Speaker 8: know that that's not a coincidence either. So uh, you know,
• 33:13
  Speaker 8: I think Tom's a great guy. I had the great
• 33:16
  Speaker 8: pleasure of playing a lot of golf with his dad
• 33:18
  Speaker 8: right here at Boston Golf Club, where his dad was
• 33:22
  Speaker 8: a national member and much loved great guy Tom Brady seniors.
• 33:27
  Speaker 8: So I you know, I think they probably find a
• 33:30
  Speaker 8: table for both of them. They probably say, hey, mcdonna,
• 33:33
  Speaker 8: you have to go both of these guys, and I
• 33:37
  Speaker 8: bet they'd sit together, right, because they're both kind of
• 33:40
  Speaker 8: guy who probably enjoy the hell out of each other's
• 33:43
  Speaker 8: company and conversation.
• 33:44
  Speaker 3: Yes, all right, show we appreciate it. As always. I'll
• 33:47
  Speaker 3: try to keep this place intact for you and try
• 33:50
  Speaker 3: not to ruin anything that you guys have created here,
• 33:52
  Speaker 3: because it's a wonderful facility. I don't belong here. I
• 33:56
  Speaker 3: feel ashamed here.
• 33:57
  Speaker 8: Yes, well, clearly you didn't belong there many years ago
• 33:59
  Speaker 8: when you applied and didn't get in. But the thank
• 34:02
  Speaker 8: god your daughter is really sharp and really talented.

• 34:13
  Speaker 8: but it's a beautiful campus. You know, people think, oh,
• 34:16
  Speaker 8: it's a city school, and it's not a city school.
• 34:18
  Speaker 9: It's up on that hill. We can see the trees
• 34:19
  Speaker 9: behind you. It's uh it was a It's as.
• 34:23

• 35:50
  Speaker 3: Eight seven seven for the Herd, That is eight seven
• 35:53
  Speaker 3: seven for the Herd. Colin has his own phone number.
• 35:59
  Speaker 3: I don't think.
• 35:59
  Speaker 6: I don't think he takes calls.
• 36:01
  Speaker 3: Does he have no I want to try and take
• 36:04
  Speaker 3: some calls. So what's the point of having the line
• 36:07
  Speaker 3: eight seven seven for the Herd? That is eight seven
• 36:10
  Speaker 3: seven for the Herd. I'm wondering what our customized phone
• 36:13
  Speaker 3: number would be if we had one. But eight seven
• 36:17
  Speaker 3: seven for the Herd. Taylor is a top five I
• 36:19
  Speaker 3: want to get to in just a second, and we
• 36:21
  Speaker 3: realize Thank you to Sean McDonough by the way for
• 36:23
  Speaker 3: joining us. Jeff Passon is going to join us later
• 36:26
  Speaker 3: on in the show at Taylor does have a top five.
• 36:29
  Speaker 3: We'll get to in just a second. I know the
• 36:30
  Speaker 3: audience here is going to miss Colin, is he and
• 36:34
  Speaker 3: perhaps they might reject us and I don't care, but
• 36:38
  Speaker 3: we realize that. Listen, it's only a day. You miss
• 36:42
  Speaker 3: your guy, but we have your guy for you in
• 36:46
  Speaker 3: the form of Ai Ai Colin. So let's get his
• 36:49
  Speaker 3: prediction on a big game. Three Nixon sixers tonight.
• 36:54
  Speaker 7: Philadelphia wins tonight, and it's simple home crowd desperation and
• 36:59
  Speaker 7: the Nickson's best. This wing stopper being questionable is a
• 37:01
  Speaker 7: real swing. If Og and Oobe can't go, Jalen Brunson's
• 37:05
  Speaker 7: got to carry more two way load. And that's where
• 37:07
  Speaker 7: Tyrese max. He starts living in the paint and getting
• 37:10
  Speaker 7: to the line. I've got the sixers and a grinder
• 37:12
  Speaker 7: something like one oh six to one oh one, because
• 37:15
  Speaker 7: down to zip you don't play pretty, you play urgent.
• 37:18
  Speaker 7: That's the spot, that's the game.
• 37:20
  Speaker 3: Yep, He's right. I mean they're desperate. Now, how do
• 37:23
  Speaker 3: you feel about that, Taylor? I mean, you're a big
• 37:24
  Speaker 3: Knicks fan. How do you feel about that? I rejected?
• 37:26
  Speaker 3: I say the Knicks win this thing and they went
• 37:28
  Speaker 3: in in four. How about that?
• 37:30
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I have the Knicks winning this one. But man
• 37:31
  Speaker 6: Ai Colin is good.
• 37:33
  Speaker 3: You have the gentleman sweep. You have the Knicks in five,
• 37:35
  Speaker 3: don't you. Yeah?
• 37:37
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I think Philly gets gets Game four.
• 37:41
  Speaker 5: What does that matter to you about Joel Embiid.
• 37:45
  Speaker 6: Me personally, No, No, I feel better Joe Embiid plays.
• 37:48
  Speaker 6: If we're being honest.
• 37:50
  Speaker 3: Really, so, you think the Sixers are better without Joel Embiid.
• 37:54
  Speaker 3: They were down three to one to the Celtics and
• 37:56
  Speaker 3: came back and won that series when Embiid came back.
• 38:00
  Speaker 6: Yeah, but you're looking at that Celtics roster, you notice
• 38:02
  Speaker 6: who they don't have, Jalen Brunson.
• 38:05
  Speaker 5: H Honestly, there's probably a bunch of listeners right now
• 38:09
  Speaker 5: that think I believe that the Sixers will be better
• 38:11
  Speaker 5: without Joel Embiid because there was a promo that ran
• 38:14
  Speaker 5: and it cut my part off right at the end
• 38:16
  Speaker 5: of that sentence, no more context. So now anybody who
• 38:19
  Speaker 5: was listening things it's real good Tierras thinks the Sixers
• 38:22
  Speaker 5: are better without Joel Embiid.
• 38:25
  Speaker 3: They'll do that to you easy. I mean, that's what
• 38:27
  Speaker 3: radio is all about way I heard it?
• 38:30
  Speaker 7: Is it?
• 38:31
  Speaker 3: Mikey? All right, Taylor has the top five. I'm very
• 38:36
  Speaker 3: excited for this. I have no idea what it's around.
• 38:39
  Speaker 3: So Taylor, the floor is yours a top five list?
• 38:42
  Speaker 3: Here from Taylor, who's sitting in the VIP room with
• 38:45
  Speaker 3: Bardot Ricardo, who's watching baseball. Go ahead, Taylor.
• 38:48
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 38:48
  Speaker 6: So as a big Knicks fan, my Knicks off nights
• 38:51
  Speaker 6: are dominated by what my girlfriend wants to do. So
• 38:54
  Speaker 6: we went to see Devilwaar's product too.
• 38:57
  Speaker 3: I know it wow and out for a week, you know.
• 39:00
  Speaker 6: And yeah, while my girlfriend was enjoying the movie, I
• 39:04
  Speaker 6: was making a top five people in sports if they
• 39:07
  Speaker 6: were named after designer brand.
• 39:09
  Speaker 3: Rude.
• 39:10
  Speaker 5: You're on your phone in the movie theater Rude.
• 39:12
  Speaker 6: Yeah, last row.
• 39:14
  Speaker 3: Wait a second, so how do you how do you
• 39:16
  Speaker 3: pass this with the girlfriend? Are you like, are you
• 39:19
  Speaker 3: giving off that you're paying attention to the movie, But
• 39:21
  Speaker 3: really what you're doing is thinking of a top five list?
• 39:24
  Speaker 3: How does that work?
• 39:24
  Speaker 6: I mean, so I'll hear like a brand during the
• 39:27
  Speaker 6: movie and then once the brand gets mentioned, I was
• 39:30
  Speaker 6: pulling out my phone and be like, cause Stu, you know,
• 39:32
  Speaker 6: sometimes if you if you say you're gonna write something
• 39:35
  Speaker 6: down later on, you'll forget it. You almost just have
• 39:37
  Speaker 6: to take that phone out right away and write it.
• 39:39
  Speaker 3: I write it all down, even the phone number eight
• 39:40
  Speaker 3: seven seven for the herd. You're right about that, all right?
• 39:43
  Speaker 3: So let's let's hear this. Top five? Is he you
• 39:46
  Speaker 3: haven't seen Devilwaar's product to you haven't seen it yet?
• 39:49
  Speaker 7: No?
• 39:50
  Speaker 3: I saw it.
• 39:50
  Speaker 2: I talked about it.
• 39:51
  Speaker 3: H you did? I forgot? Yeah?
• 39:54
  Speaker 4: Do you have to see one to understand two?
• 39:57
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 39:57
  Speaker 4: Yeah?
• 39:57
  Speaker 6: No, no, yeah, definitely not interested in either.
• 39:59
  Speaker 3: Right, I'm all right, So go ahead, Taylor.
• 40:03
  Speaker 6: So top five people in sports if they were named
• 40:06
  Speaker 6: after a designer brand, middle infielder, utility player Martin Prado
• 40:13
  Speaker 6: Martine Prado ol right off the bat.
• 40:17
  Speaker 5: Welso if you have to say their position and what
• 40:21
  Speaker 5: sport they play in, maybe not the best choice.
• 40:24
  Speaker 3: Is he have a question for you? Is Taylor nervous
• 40:26
  Speaker 3: because he's in the herd? Because I have lived in
• 40:28
  Speaker 3: the herd for twenty years, so I'm okay with this.
• 40:31
  Speaker 5: What happens is Taylor's from New York, a lot of ripoff,
• 40:34
  Speaker 5: you know, brand names, and he's probably about a couple
• 40:37
  Speaker 5: of Pratos in his life instead of product, and it's
• 40:40
  Speaker 5: just what he's used to.
• 40:41
  Speaker 3: I have purchased several role axes in my life.
• 40:45
  Speaker 5: The knockoff culture is crazy.
• 40:47
  Speaker 6: The problem is I didn't have the utility thing written down,
• 40:50
  Speaker 6: and I started to improvise. I shouldn't improvise. Just stick
• 40:52
  Speaker 6: to the list.
• 40:53
  Speaker 3: Stick to the list. Oli is outside looking in. By
• 40:56
  Speaker 3: the way, he hasn't gotten to his top five yet.
• 40:58
  Speaker 6: Keep going, Taylor, O l I, John Gucci gross.
• 41:05
  Speaker 5: Nice, nice recovery there, Gucci Verso, these are all O
• 41:15
  Speaker 5: l I, My god, I would have taken a sport imposition.
• 41:18
  Speaker 2: Actually, number five d Or Milner.

  Speaker 3: I like some of the olies better than that one.
• 41:26
  Speaker 6: I mean number four Vince Cardier or.
• 41:32
  Speaker 3: Cardier Tomato Tomato.
• 41:35
  Speaker 5: Now I know why you didn't love Devilaware's proud of.
• 41:37
  Speaker 5: You're not about the high fashion, are you?
• 41:39
  Speaker 6: Number three Louis Baton maddingly.
• 41:46

• 41:50
  Speaker 3: different places. People, bear with us. I've been Syracuse, there
• 41:53

  Speaker 5: Coco, Chanelson Cruz.
• 42:22
  Speaker 3: Eight seven seven for the herd. We're in the hurd
