- 0:20Speaker 1: We have the week can observations coming up here and
- 0:22Speaker 1: our number two, Michael luck Senior, going to join us
- 0:25Speaker 1: as well. It's a Mount Rushmore Monday. There's a lot
- 0:29Speaker 1: to get to here. Let's start with the World Cup
- 0:32Speaker 1: before we get to Lebron.
- 0:33Speaker 3: James here is he?
- 0:34Speaker 4: Yeah, because we're never going to talk about it again
- 0:36Speaker 4: for four years, so we might as well get it
- 0:38Speaker 4: over it.
- 0:38Speaker 3: This is Lebron's day.
- 0:40Speaker 4: I mean it's gonna be. I think everything is.
- 0:42Speaker 1: Cleared out for Lebron to make some sort of decision.
- 0:45Speaker 1: We'll get to that again in just a couple of minutes.
- 0:48Speaker 1: But Spain beats Argentina in the World Cup final. Not
- 0:52Speaker 1: a great final, one to nothing. I missed, you know,
- 0:57Speaker 1: the first two halves of the game, and you know
- 0:59Speaker 1: what I missed, nothing miss mil I miss Zilch. But
- 1:04Speaker 1: Spain does win, and Spain was the better team was
- 1:07Speaker 1: frustrating watching that game because Argentina is simply trying to
- 1:10Speaker 1: get to penalty kicks and Spain is doing everything they
- 1:13Speaker 1: can to prevent themselves from getting to penalty kicks.
- 1:17Speaker 4: Still, the one prevailing thought that kept growing in my
- 1:20Speaker 4: head throughout that game was if Argentina and they were
- 1:25Speaker 4: down to ten men for a lot of that you know,
- 1:27Speaker 4: second half and extra time, if Argentina finds a way
- 1:30Speaker 4: to get this thing to penalty kicks, and there was
- 1:34Speaker 4: a disallowed goal in there before that first goal, so
- 1:38Speaker 4: there would have been that involved and Argentina would have
- 1:41Speaker 4: gone on to win on pks. It wouldn't have just
- 1:44Speaker 4: been the United States trying to fix soccer. It would
- 1:47Speaker 4: have been the rest of the world trying to fix soccer.
- 1:50Speaker 4: Because never have I seen a more one sided contest
- 1:54Speaker 4: in soccer, and yet it was nil mil for so long. Yeah,
- 1:57Speaker 4: and it just made me think, well, clearly, Argentina is
- 2:01Speaker 4: doing everything possible to slow down Spain, which includes a
- 2:04Speaker 4: lot of times grabbing them by the neck. And then
- 2:07Speaker 4: that one time where you did get the second yellow
- 2:09Speaker 4: to get the ejection. Effectively, the Spain player was in
- 2:13Speaker 4: the air similar to that guy who got hit by
- 2:15Speaker 4: the buffalo. Okay, he was just follow the air upside down,
- 2:18Speaker 4: and it's just like, if these are the measures Argentina
- 2:21Speaker 4: has to go to to, then just win it. In PKS,
- 2:25Speaker 4: I thought everybody would.
- 2:26Speaker 5: Have imploded with anger. Sure, we debated all World Cup.
- 2:29Speaker 5: It feels like whether or not this Argentina team was
- 2:31Speaker 5: more team of destiny or more of a pretender. And
- 2:35Speaker 5: that World Cup final kind of played out exactly like that,
- 2:38Speaker 5: where yes they were a pretender. But then even when
- 2:40Speaker 5: they go down to ten men in extra time, there
- 2:43Speaker 5: was like that five minute stretch where they were just
- 2:45Speaker 5: sending crosses into the box and it was like, it
- 2:48Speaker 5: feels like Messi is gonna give us one more moment
- 2:50Speaker 5: of magic even with ten men. But ultimately the Spain
- 2:55Speaker 5: defense was just too much.
- 2:56Speaker 3: It also felt like they could have been that aggressive
- 2:58Speaker 3: the entire game.
- 2:59Speaker 4: Well, they just couldn't control the ball the entire game.
- 3:02Speaker 4: And so what happened in that one little segment was
- 3:04Speaker 4: they just finally got the ball. You had, you know,
- 3:06Speaker 4: ten on eleven whatever, but they just finally got the
- 3:08Speaker 4: ball in that section and normally what they were doing
- 3:11Speaker 4: was getting the ball anywhere near sort of midfield or
- 3:14Speaker 4: in their half and then just trying to take a foul,
- 3:17Speaker 4: just collapsing whenever somebody comes next to them so they
- 3:20Speaker 4: can get a free kick situation and set up something,
- 3:23Speaker 4: and yetto in that stretch, they were three times where
- 3:26Speaker 4: I was certain it was going to be an Argentina
- 3:28Speaker 4: go absolutely certain you had the one. I forget who
- 3:30Speaker 4: it was who just flew it over the top and
- 3:32Speaker 4: I was just like, ooh, that was your chance. You
- 3:33Speaker 4: saw Messi's face. He was like ooh, and then he's
- 3:35Speaker 4: like no. He just shook his head. He knew that
- 3:37Speaker 4: was the last chance. There were three times there where
- 3:39Speaker 4: I was almost certain that was going to go in
- 3:41Speaker 4: and it was just gonna be what I talked about before.
- 3:43Speaker 4: They would still get the pks, they would still potentially win,
- 3:46Speaker 4: and the rest of the world would be like, I
- 3:47Speaker 4: just watched something I don't understand.
- 3:49Speaker 3: But the MLS they've they've got it from here.
- 3:55Speaker 6: A preposterous commercial.
- 3:56Speaker 1: Well, it's ridiculous because there was nothing about that game
- 4:00Speaker 1: that's gonna have me rushing out to see the next
- 4:02Speaker 1: MLS game. I mean, that was soccer at its highest
- 4:06Speaker 1: level against two world powers, right taking on each other.
- 4:09Speaker 1: For the World Cup Championship, and what you saw was
- 4:12Speaker 1: a one nothing game that was not esthetically pleasing at all.
- 4:15Speaker 4: But there was one thing that kept going through my
- 4:18Speaker 4: mind every single time I watched Argentina play, and in
- 4:22Speaker 4: the World Cup Final, it was more prominent than at
- 4:25Speaker 4: any of the other times. I just kept saying to myself,
- 4:28Speaker 4: you gotta be kidding me. This team that's in the
- 4:31Speaker 4: World Cup final has not one, but two starters who
- 4:35Speaker 4: play for MLS. Like that's insane to me. Messim noigo
- 4:39Speaker 4: to Paul And it's just like, you know what, maybe
- 4:41Speaker 4: MLS does got it from here, because they got some
- 4:44Speaker 4: pretty good players on that side. But that was the
- 4:46Speaker 4: one thing that was just like, Wow, I never before
- 4:49Speaker 4: have I been a prouder inter Miami fan. And to
- 4:51Speaker 4: just think about that in that context, Taylor put it
- 4:54Speaker 4: on the poll. When MLS says they've got it from here?
- 4:57Speaker 4: Are you confident.
- 5:01Speaker 1: Taylor has winners and losers from the World Cup, not
- 5:05Speaker 1: from the final, just from the World Cup in general?
- 5:08Speaker 3: What'd you make of the halftime show?
- 5:10Speaker 4: But I was just about to say the biggest loser
- 5:12Speaker 4: in the final alone had to be that halftime show,
- 5:15Speaker 4: because I remember so I knew the halftime was going
- 5:19Speaker 4: to be really long stew so I decided to grab
- 5:21Speaker 4: lunch during that time, and I just kind of watched
- 5:22Speaker 4: it on my phone while I went to go pick
- 5:24Speaker 4: up lunch. I had only known of one, maybe two
- 5:26Speaker 4: performers that were going to be there. I heard Justin
- 5:28Speaker 4: Bieber and I heard Shakira because everything FIFA. I picked
- 5:31Speaker 4: double lunch during the first half, and then I saw
- 5:35Speaker 4: Madonna and I was like, I didn't know she was
- 5:37Speaker 4: going to be there. I saw some muppets. I didn't
- 5:39Speaker 4: know they were going to be there. And then when
- 5:42Speaker 4: Justin Bieber played his song, I was like, was that
- 5:45Speaker 4: just a way for them to get the ted Lasso
- 5:48Speaker 4: skit in there and have the believe thing? Because that
- 5:51Speaker 4: was doubling down on Corny.
- 5:53Speaker 5: Is he don't get me go, don't get me started
- 5:55Speaker 5: on ted Lasso because I feel so alone. Anytime I
- 5:58Speaker 5: tell people that I don't really care for I watched
- 6:01Speaker 5: the first season. It was okay, it was good, not great.
- 6:05Speaker 5: Second season rolls around. I say, no, thanks, I'm good.
- 6:08Speaker 5: There's too much going on. I'm not dedicating time to
- 6:11Speaker 5: ted Lasso. And anytime you tell people that it's like,
- 6:15Speaker 5: you don't love Ted Lasso, and I'm like, no, I
- 6:17Speaker 5: don't care for this.
- 6:18Speaker 4: Really, well, you're not the greatest judge here. You didn't
- 6:20Speaker 4: watch Breaking Bad hum til twenty twenty six.
- 6:22Speaker 1: People have a weird reaction to that, as if he
- 6:24Speaker 1: said he doesn't like Breaking Bad.
- 6:26Speaker 3: It's Ted Lasso. Get over it.
- 6:27Speaker 4: I mean Ted Lasso seasons two and maybe three were
- 6:31Speaker 4: better even than season one.
- 6:33Speaker 3: Go ahead, Mike.
- 6:33Speaker 7: Not liking Ted Lasso is like when Kramer won't wear
- 6:37Speaker 7: the ribbon. That's what that is.
- 6:39Speaker 8: It's absolutely like everybody is judging you and they hate
- 6:43Speaker 8: you because you don't love Ted last.
- 6:45Speaker 4: That's all right, Taylor doesn't like heartwarming, It's okay.
- 6:48Speaker 5: And also, I am so out on Tom Cruise monologue
- 6:52Speaker 5: before sporting events. Can we leave that with the World
- 6:55Speaker 5: Cup too? Like I don't need to be watching the
- 6:57Speaker 5: World Series and then oh, what's coming a prepackage Tom
- 7:00Speaker 5: Cruise commercial.
- 7:01Speaker 4: I'm out on it, but I still marvel at how
- 7:04Speaker 4: good he is at it. Like everybody else there would
- 7:07Speaker 4: have maybe an ear piece, maybe a speech ready, and
- 7:10Speaker 4: you could just tell, hey, I worked on this script,
- 7:13Speaker 4: I got it all memorized. I'm gonna say Argentina and
- 7:15Speaker 4: Spain and their native language, and I'm gonna kill this.
- 7:18Speaker 1: Yeah, and he did, Like I didn't need it, but
- 7:20Speaker 1: he killed it. He's the best we have. I mean
- 7:22Speaker 1: that in East Rutherford, New Jersey.
- 7:24Speaker 3: I mean.
- 7:26Speaker 5: Before we get to the winners and losers. The other
- 7:29Speaker 5: question I have for you guys from the festivities of
- 7:31Speaker 5: the World Cup Final, has Bruce Buffer surpassed Michael Buffer?
- 7:36Speaker 4: I said the same thing. Wow, not just surpassed him,
- 7:39Speaker 4: think well surpassed me?
- 7:40Speaker 3: Did you? Did you?
- 7:41Speaker 4: You didn't see the beginning? You went to go get lunch. Yes,
- 7:43Speaker 4: when when Michael Buffer went out there and said, and
- 7:45Speaker 4: I can't say it because I think I'm gonna get sued,
- 7:47Speaker 4: let's get ready to whatever he says. And then then
- 7:51Speaker 4: the other Buffer came out there and not only did
- 7:54Speaker 4: his thing, but didn't entire his entire intro, not just
- 7:57Speaker 4: his one line. It is the time he did the
- 8:01Speaker 4: entire intro, and he did it with more you know,
- 8:05Speaker 4: it justn't with more flair. And I think he's absolutely
- 8:07Speaker 4: surpassed him.
- 8:08Speaker 3: A couple of Buffer's cutting it up.
- 8:10Speaker 5: So I agree with Stu Gotts that at one point
- 8:14Speaker 5: it wasn't a question like this would be a laughable
- 8:17Speaker 5: debate right now, Michael Buffer was on top of the world.
- 8:20Speaker 5: Boxing was on top of the world. Recently there's been
- 8:23Speaker 5: a shift to MMA and Bruce Buffer, and I think
- 8:27Speaker 5: more people now there's a certain age group where I
- 8:30Speaker 5: think if you ask them anybody my age and younger,
- 8:34Speaker 5: I think it's without a doubt Bruce.
- 8:36Speaker 1: Buffer, Bruce Buffer, Michael Buffer, which one is bigger?
- 8:40Speaker 3: Put it on the pole? Taylor?
- 8:41Speaker 1: Okay, yes, well today today is very important, Yes, because
- 8:45Speaker 1: I do believe that people of Taylor's age are going
- 8:48Speaker 1: to say Bruce Buffer, and I believe I'm going to
- 8:51Speaker 1: stay in trench to Michael Buffer because he's the original.
- 8:55Speaker 4: I will say Bruce here also, but I'm going to
- 8:57Speaker 4: add one more loser to the World Cup Final before
- 9:00Speaker 4: Taylor goes Yeah. And it was John Strong to play
- 9:03Speaker 4: by play guy because there was a moment where I
- 9:07Speaker 4: would say a lot of America in Unison, we're saying
- 9:12Speaker 4: the exact same thing. That's Matt Damon because when he
- 9:16Speaker 4: came on the screen initially he goes Brad Pitt at
- 9:19Speaker 4: the game, and everybody, I'm like, what, that's not Brad Pitt,
- 9:21Speaker 4: that's Matt Damon, so everybody else and then like clearly
- 9:24Speaker 4: a producer sent in his ear Matt Damon. He goes, oh,
- 9:26Speaker 4: that was Matt Damon, and he corrected himself. That's the
- 9:28Speaker 4: first time he screwed those up.
- 9:30Speaker 7: How good is Matt Damon feeling right there?
- 9:32Speaker 3: So good?
- 9:32Speaker 7: How good is Matt Damon feeling right there? Yeah it is.
- 9:35Speaker 1: I don't know how most I don't know how most
- 9:37Speaker 1: host countries would get there. You know, the fan base
- 9:39Speaker 1: riled up before the World Cup Final. I imagine if it
- 9:43Speaker 1: was being held in Spain, they would trot out like
- 9:45Speaker 1: a former champion in Italy, a former champion.
- 9:48Speaker 3: We don't have any good soccer players. We don't have
- 9:50Speaker 3: any champions. The only thing we can trot out is
- 9:53Speaker 3: Tom Cruise.
- 9:54Speaker 6: That's it, Stu.
- 9:56Speaker 5: The global world does not need anything to get a
- 10:00Speaker 5: cited for the World Cup Final. America comes in and
- 10:03Speaker 5: is like, how can we dress this up. Let's get
- 10:06Speaker 5: speed the streamer to come out and do a little
- 10:08Speaker 5: song and dance beforehand.
- 10:10Speaker 3: So Cruz Bieber Madonna. That was for us in the Muppets.
- 10:13Speaker 3: I don't know that.
- 10:15Speaker 5: I've never met a BTS fan like I understand that
- 10:18Speaker 5: they are massive, and I understand that they are huge,
- 10:22Speaker 5: just have never come across a BTS fan. Couldn't name
- 10:24Speaker 5: you a BTS song, But yeah, I go for them.
- 10:27Speaker 4: I've got a niece who keeps me well informed on
- 10:29Speaker 4: all of that musical artists or those musical artists I do.
- 10:32Speaker 4: Since I called out John Stung, I do also have
- 10:34Speaker 4: to call out a British announcer who, when they showed
- 10:36Speaker 4: Pharrell Williams said that's I believe AKA Rocky. I'm sorry
- 10:41Speaker 4: asap Rocky, and I was like, wow, that's that's worse
- 10:44Speaker 4: than the Brad Pittwood. That's definitely worse AKA Rocky again.
- 10:48Speaker 1: All he needs is soccer, all right, Taylor, winners and
- 10:53Speaker 1: losers from the World Cup, what do you got?
- 10:56Speaker 6: Let's alternate between winners and Koler.
- 10:59Speaker 4: Always has music and this stuff. I mean, I don't
- 11:01Speaker 4: even have buttons that can play music.
- 11:04Speaker 5: My first winner, Earlin Holland, Oh yeah, yeah. He entered
- 11:09Speaker 5: this World Cup as a superstar, and I think he's
- 11:12Speaker 5: left the World Cup as a megastar, to.
- 11:14Speaker 4: The point where I'm deeply regretting not going to hang
- 11:18Speaker 4: out in Fort Lauderdale the night before their game here
- 11:20Speaker 4: because he was out and about with the people. You
- 11:23Speaker 4: could see him leaving his hotel and I was like, man,
- 11:25Speaker 4: I missed that guy.
- 11:25Speaker 5: And people right now are like, man, I want to
- 11:28Speaker 5: get more into soccer. What soccer team should I root for?
- 11:30Speaker 5: And they're like, oh, Man City because of Holland. I'm like, please, please,
- 11:33Speaker 5: Man City doesn't.
- 11:34Speaker 1: Need it, like the United States, don't worry. The MLS
- 11:36Speaker 1: has it from here.
- 11:39Speaker 7: Jesus Chris, what.
- 11:40Speaker 3: Does that mean?
- 11:41Speaker 5: Going to alternate between winners and losers loser hydration breaks.
- 11:47Speaker 6: Let's leave him with this World Cup?
- 11:48Speaker 4: Please, I don't know, Man, that's hot out there.
- 11:51Speaker 6: It is, well, some of the stadiums were in domes.
- 11:56Speaker 4: H If you're not in direct contact with the sun.
- 11:58Speaker 4: I think you could probably get Life Stadium.
- 12:01Speaker 3: It's like an extra time out. It's not needed.
- 12:03Speaker 4: I mean next month in Spain though, it's pretty hot
- 12:05Speaker 4: over there too.
- 12:06Speaker 8: Let's be honest. It was an ad break, That's what
- 12:09Speaker 8: it was. Yeah, you guys need to take a drink,
- 12:11Speaker 8: but really we got.
- 12:12Speaker 7: Stuff to sell.
- 12:13Speaker 3: Way of Spain's depending on their home in their home country.
- 12:16Speaker 4: Spain in Portugal.
- 12:17Speaker 3: Yeah, out back to back.
- 12:19Speaker 5: My next winner Oasis is Wonderwall that song. It's having
- 12:25Speaker 5: a moment right now.
- 12:26Speaker 3: Okay.
- 12:27Speaker 4: I hadn't really picked up on that because I just
- 12:29Speaker 4: known that they've been singing that song for a while
- 12:30Speaker 4: and I was just kind of over it. But I
- 12:31Speaker 4: guess a lot of people just.
- 12:32Speaker 3: Figured that out.
- 12:33Speaker 6: Odd winner shooting off the charts.
- 12:36Speaker 3: Yeah you're less though.
- 12:38Speaker 5: My next loser a combination of Germany and Uruguay, two
- 12:44Speaker 5: biggest disappointments of the tournament.
- 12:46Speaker 3: In Uruguay.
- 12:46Speaker 6: Don't even get me started on those kids.
- 12:48Speaker 5: Why I was there, the Uruguay quits that look like
- 12:50Speaker 5: the black panther jerseys.
- 12:52Speaker 3: It was terrible, terrible. You got yourself started. You didn't
- 12:55Speaker 3: need us. You rapped yourself up there. You don't get
- 12:58Speaker 3: me started, but you're already started.
- 13:01Speaker 4: If you talk to yourself.
- 13:02Speaker 6: For terrible jerseys. People are saying those are the best
- 13:05Speaker 6: jerseys in the World Cup.
- 13:06Speaker 4: Give me a break. I don't like the France jerseys
- 13:10Speaker 4: with the little white collars, and it's like, come on, yeah,
- 13:12Speaker 4: I don't.
- 13:12Speaker 6: Like collars on any jersey.
- 13:13Speaker 4: It's so French.
- 13:15Speaker 5: My next winner, my third winner, yes, cape verdet Ah, Yes,
- 13:21Speaker 5: no doubt.
- 13:22Speaker 6: I think they won the whole World Cup. If we're
- 13:23Speaker 6: being honest.
- 13:24Speaker 3: At least the runner ups.
- 13:25Speaker 4: I mean they're the only team to score on Spain.
- 13:30Speaker 5: No, I think they played out to a nil nil
- 13:32Speaker 5: Dragon Belton, you knew that the only team that Spain
- 13:35Speaker 5: didn't beat. Okay, the next loser Thomas Tucle, England's coach,
- 13:43Speaker 5: third placekick.
- 13:44Speaker 6: That third place.
- 13:45Speaker 5: Game was a glorified all star game. But even still,
- 13:48Speaker 5: their ability to push France to the wall and France
- 13:52Speaker 5: mounts his comeback, they get to trailing it by one
- 13:55Speaker 5: four three tucl subs on Jude Bellingham. They stay on
- 13:59Speaker 5: the attack, they put away France. He kind of saw
- 14:02Speaker 5: like if they just stayed on the attack against Argentina,
- 14:05Speaker 5: they're probably in the final and they would have gave
- 14:08Speaker 5: Spain a much better game.
- 14:09Speaker 4: They had the joke after they scored in the third minute,
- 14:12Speaker 4: you think Thomas tuk is gonna send then a fifth
- 14:14Speaker 4: defender and just park the bus from here on out.
- 14:16Speaker 4: You know he was waiting the entire day to drop
- 14:18Speaker 4: that joke.
- 14:20Speaker 3: Is that it? Teller? You have no losers.
- 14:21Speaker 5: I have one more winner, one more loser, okay, my
- 14:24Speaker 5: last winner, Lamina Mal's brother.
- 14:28Speaker 3: Yes.
- 14:28Speaker 5: Every time they put Laminia Maul's little brother on the screen.
- 14:32Speaker 5: I physically went.
- 14:34Speaker 4: Huh, that kid's a superstar in the making.
- 14:38Speaker 3: All right, your last loser here.
- 14:39Speaker 5: My last loser, and it's the biggest loser, probably the
- 14:42Speaker 5: person that hurt their stock the worst.
- 14:43Speaker 6: This World Cup Captain America, Christian Poli.
- 14:47Speaker 4: Not soccer, just him. At least he can rest.
- 14:52Speaker 3: Now I have a winner. The third place game.
- 15:00Speaker 4: Well, if there was ever a time. Now the third
- 15:03Speaker 4: place game is bigger in the first place game.
- 15:05Speaker 7: It's wild.

- 15:34Speaker 4: one's courtesy of the World Cup on Fox.
- 15:36Speaker 3: Pooro chance to cross hoax.
- 15:38Speaker 5: It in Williams badly knocks it.
- 15:47Speaker 4: Stull. I'm gonna give you a little little nugget that
- 15:50Speaker 4: might help us predict where Lebron James is going. You ready, Okay?
- 15:54Speaker 4: In twenty ten, who won the World Cup?
- 15:56Speaker 3: I have no idea Spain?
- 15:57Speaker 4: Okay, where did Lebron choose to go in twenty ten?
- 16:00Speaker 3: Miami who just won the World Cup.
- 16:02Speaker 4: In twenty twenty six, Spain, who's a free agent about
- 16:04Speaker 4: to decide where he's going to go in the NBA.
- 16:06Speaker 1: It's a segment I like to call loose connections.
- 16:10Speaker 5: Right now, people are all given a lot of flowers
- 16:12Speaker 5: to Torres for that goal. I think we need to
- 16:15Speaker 5: give more flowers to Nico Williams for the pass. That
- 16:18Speaker 5: pass was maybe the most underrated pass in sports history.
- 16:21Speaker 4: And I feel like his little ponytail gives him an
- 16:23Speaker 4: advantage because if he misses it with his head, he
- 16:25Speaker 4: can still whip it with that ponytail and get a good, good,
- 16:28Speaker 4: you know, strike on it.
- 16:30Speaker 7: Was that pass better than Jalen Brunson's pass to Og
- 16:33Speaker 7: for the tipping.
- 16:34Speaker 3: Or Messi's pass in the semi final.
- 16:36Speaker 5: I mean, Bronson one was a good pass because a
- 16:39Speaker 5: lot of people have simple minds and don't think it
- 16:41Speaker 5: really was a pass.
- 16:42Speaker 1: Yeah, the pass to Og that he shot it up
- 16:47Speaker 1: in time, so Og had time to tip it back
- 16:50Speaker 1: in after he missed.
- 16:51Speaker 4: It backflips to give Jaalen Fronts some credit.
- 16:55Speaker 3: So you have Lebron coming to Miami based on Spain.
- 16:58Speaker 4: I used to well, based on that, based on strictly
- 17:00Speaker 4: you know, coincidence, but I used to like think that
- 17:04Speaker 4: he was definitely gonna come here because it made the
- 17:07Speaker 4: most basketball since And then I started saying, well, I
- 17:09Speaker 4: feel like it's a narrative based and he wants to
- 17:11Speaker 4: end it in Cleveland. And now every time somebody has
- 17:14Speaker 4: a good inkling on where he's gonna go, people that
- 17:17Speaker 4: I follow will show the cals Sheep projections on and
- 17:19Speaker 4: I'm just like, this is too much. It's too much.
- 17:22Speaker 4: I just need him to decide. I don't want to
- 17:23Speaker 4: be teased every single time somebody has, you know, a
- 17:26Speaker 4: potential landing spot for him.
- 17:28Speaker 1: It is a Mount Rushmore Monday, and we'll get to
- 17:31Speaker 1: it in just a second. We have an update coming up.
- 17:33Speaker 1: But what is the uh what is the topic here
- 17:35Speaker 1: for Mount Rushmore Monday? Who was the what it's been
- 17:38Speaker 1: a minute since we've all been in studio, who was
- 17:40Speaker 1: the last winner and what is this week's topic.
- 17:43Speaker 5: I'm the defending champion for Mount Rushmore Monday. The I
- 17:48Speaker 5: went off the board here trying to get a topic
- 17:50Speaker 5: for what the Mount Rushmore Monday is gonna be. It's
- 17:52Speaker 5: gonna be movies that Will Ferrell was in. So it
- 17:56Speaker 5: doesn't have to be Will Ferrell's best roles. It just
- 17:59Speaker 5: has to be what movies Will Ferrell's been in. Because
- 18:02Speaker 5: right now he's dominating. He's got this new show on Netflix.
- 18:05Speaker 5: He was Home Run Derby, he was at the World
- 18:07Speaker 5: Cup Final. But I think people are starting to look
- 18:09Speaker 5: at Will Ferrell a little differently because it feels like,
- 18:12Speaker 5: feels like he kind of jumped the shark. And I
- 18:14Speaker 5: don't know if that's us changing, him changing or what
- 18:18Speaker 5: happened there.
- 18:18Speaker 1: So when you say they're looking at him differently, like
- 18:20Speaker 1: he's not funny anymore.
- 18:21Speaker 5: Yeah, Like his jokes just really aren't hitting anymore. And
- 18:24Speaker 5: you're watching him on the SP's and he's like, yeah, man,
- 18:27Speaker 5: what happened? I used to think this guy was the
- 18:29Speaker 5: funniest person in the world, Like, again, did I grow up?
- 18:31Speaker 5: Did my sensibilities change in terms of humor? Did he
- 18:34Speaker 5: just run out of jokes or did he yes? Or
- 18:36Speaker 5: did he age out of comedy? Because Will Ferrell Saturday
- 18:39Speaker 5: Night Live, you could put his peak with anybody.
- 18:42Speaker 1: Yes, put it on the pohletailer at Stegatt seven ninety
- 18:45Speaker 1: on X. Did Will Ferrell run out of jokes?
- 18:51Speaker 3: It's a great question. Mount Rushmore Monday.
- 18:55Speaker 1: The order I am told is mikey A, myself is
- 19:00Speaker 1: he and Taylor and we are doing Mount Rushmore of
- 19:03Speaker 1: movies Will Farrell has appeared in, not started, just heard it? Okay,
- 19:08Speaker 1: very important because I'm struggling to find four movies that
- 19:13Speaker 1: would make up a Mount Rushmore for Will Farrell. I mean,
- 19:16Speaker 1: I really am He has jumped a short, he's run
- 19:21Speaker 1: out of jokes.
- 19:22Speaker 3: Mikey A, take it away. You are up first here.
- 19:26Speaker 3: I hate this pick Sorry, Mike. Mike.
- 19:32Speaker 2: Do you find yourself needing a picking up as you're
- 19:34Speaker 2: dragging in the cubicle to start the week? Are you
- 19:39Speaker 2: ready to put the sports back in sports talk? Well,
- 19:43Speaker 2: then you're in luck because every Monday we climbed.
- 19:47Speaker 4: A mountain, we talked the legends, and.
- 19:50Speaker 2: We argue about things.
- 19:53Speaker 7: The truth.
- 19:53Speaker 9: You just can't handle the.
- 19:55Speaker 2: Truth that absolutely do not matter and are completely subjective.
- 20:01Speaker 2: Mount Rushmore Monday Monday.
- 20:04Speaker 3: Now it is officially mikey A. My apologies.
- 20:07Speaker 1: I needed to get to the imaging. I love imaging.
- 20:10Speaker 1: I knew there was imaging for this.
- 20:11Speaker 3: I blew it. That's on me.
- 20:13Speaker 1: I want to say, matt Rod Moore Monday is like
- 20:15Speaker 1: riding a bike, but it's not Tahoe.
- 20:17Speaker 3: Yeah, he gets you. Parasites.
- 20:23Speaker 4: You're parasites by the way, mine are thriving. They're really
- 20:27Speaker 4: living it up in there.
- 20:30Speaker 7: All right, Well, I hate this pick. I hate having
- 20:33Speaker 7: this pick. I did not want the one pick.
- 20:35Speaker 8: And now we have Jason who's actually going to be
- 20:37Speaker 8: deciding our winner.
- 20:38Speaker 7: And he describes himself as a quote.
- 20:41Speaker 8: Film buff, which when I look at Will Ferrell's catalog,
- 20:45Speaker 8: I do not see many films.
- 20:47Speaker 1: Yes, yes, Dan is out today. He's playing golf. So ep,
- 20:51Speaker 1: Jason is our is our judge. Monty cannot be the
- 20:54Speaker 1: judge because she is clearly biased.
- 20:56Speaker 7: Okay, Yes, that being said, I'm just gonna go with
- 21:01Speaker 7: the thing that I immediately think of what I think
- 21:04Speaker 7: of will power. I'm gonna go with old school.
- 21:08Speaker 5: I had this as the one one, did you, Yeah,
- 21:11Speaker 5: we don't think I've seen it start to finish.
- 21:13Speaker 3: I mean, the next one's obvious. For me. It's Anchorman,
- 21:17Speaker 3: think much about It's the only other movie I know.
- 21:21Speaker 4: I was thankful that you both took those two and
- 21:24Speaker 4: that those would be the two that you picked, because
- 21:26Speaker 4: while we are supposed to try to win this thing,
- 21:29Speaker 4: I'm really only picking Will Ferrell movies or performances that
- 21:32Speaker 4: I actually liked. And number one is the one that
- 21:34Speaker 4: I've seen the most by far is Elf.
- 21:38Speaker 7: Yep.
- 21:38Speaker 6: It's a good movie.
- 21:40Speaker 4: It's fantastic.
- 21:41Speaker 6: Very I considered it.
- 21:43Speaker 5: You're limited in the window because it is a Christmas movie, Like,
- 21:46Speaker 5: I'm not gonna pop on Elf in June?
- 21:49Speaker 4: Why not? It makes you think about Christmas. Who doesn't
- 21:51Speaker 4: want to think about Christmas?
- 21:52Speaker 3: Well, some people, people who have a lot of gifts
- 21:55Speaker 3: about Jewish people.
- 21:58Speaker 6: Wow, I've loved how this has fallen to.
- 22:00Speaker 3: Me thinking about Howka though.
- 22:02Speaker 1: Anyway, gotta tell you have two here, Taylor.
- 22:05Speaker 5: Yep, back to back pixel for the snake draft. I
- 22:08Speaker 5: have my number two and three on my board still,
- 22:12Speaker 5: I mean double check, yes, I do wedding crashers.
- 22:15Speaker 4: Yeah, I thought that would have been one, to be honest,
- 22:21Speaker 4: great line, great role from I think I know your
- 22:24Speaker 4: next pick is too and on the list, so this.
- 22:29Speaker 5: Might be not who you're thinking, is he because this
- 22:32Speaker 5: is my favorite movie, my most rewatchable movie. I think
- 22:36Speaker 5: Will Ferrell's best role in movie. The other guys really, yeah,
- 22:40Speaker 5: I love the other guys. I think I could have
- 22:42Speaker 5: got a bigger movie in terms of name value here,
- 22:45Speaker 5: but I would have kicked myself if I didn't get
- 22:49Speaker 5: the other guys.
- 22:50Speaker 4: Yeah. I almost didn't even write down the other guys
- 22:52Speaker 4: because I am so not a fan.
- 22:53Speaker 6: Of Well you shot Derek Jeter.
- 22:58Speaker 4: But even though, man, I don't know what twe of
- 23:00Speaker 4: these movies I liked better, because I've got two that
- 23:02Speaker 4: are just yelling at me right now. Yeah, but I'm
- 23:05Speaker 4: gonna go ahead and take the one that is probably
- 23:08Speaker 4: more popular and quotable and say step Brothers.
- 23:12Speaker 3: Okay, it's a good pick.
- 23:14Speaker 4: I think it was a toss up, though Stu knows
- 23:17Speaker 4: which other one I was talking about. Talladegan Knights you got.
- 23:22Speaker 1: I mean, that's one that is one of the funniest
- 23:24Speaker 1: movies I've ever seen, And so I'm feeling pretty good
- 23:28Speaker 1: about my chances of you know, when I have Anchorman
- 23:30Speaker 1: and Talladega Knights.
- 23:32Speaker 5: Yeah, but when you see how funny Talladega Knights is.
- 23:35Speaker 5: And then you see Will Ferrell popping up for the
- 23:37Speaker 5: home run Derby. Does a part of you go like, Man,
- 23:40Speaker 5: this is sad.
- 23:41Speaker 4: Yes, it's also worse. Nobody's gonna go visit the Will
- 23:44Speaker 4: Ferrell Mount Rushmore and be like, Wow, he's got such
- 23:48Speaker 4: a future ahead of him. No, they already know his
- 23:50Speaker 4: best work is already passed.
- 23:53Speaker 3: All right, Mikey, you're up here.
- 23:56Speaker 7: This is why I didn't want one one. This is
- 23:58Speaker 7: this is the exact spot i'd want to be in.
- 24:01Speaker 7: All of the all of the things I was hoping
- 24:03Speaker 7: to fall to me did not come back.
- 24:04Speaker 1: I feel like there's two remaining though that stand out
- 24:06Speaker 1: a bit I did.
- 24:08Speaker 3: I bet you do, but I disagree.
- 24:11Speaker 8: So the first one I'm gonna take, we're going to
- 24:14Speaker 8: go in the way back Machine and we're gonna he
- 24:17Speaker 8: had a bit roll in it.
- 24:18Speaker 7: We're gonna take Austin.
- 24:19Speaker 4: Powers Wait, which the International Man of Mystery. You got
- 24:23Speaker 4: to be a specific because he made a couple.
- 24:25Speaker 3: He was a good pick.
- 24:27Speaker 6: I thought I was gonna be able to sneak that
- 24:28Speaker 6: bad people.
- 24:30Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 24:31Speaker 7: No, we're going with the movies. So after that, I'm
- 24:34Speaker 7: gonna go with I'm gonna take Zulander.
- 24:38Speaker 3: Wow.
- 24:40Speaker 4: Wow, I don't think I've seen that one.
- 24:43Speaker 6: Frink starts Samuel plating that.
- 24:48Speaker 3: I'm quietly I'm judging here.
- 24:51Speaker 10: I'm quietly judging you. I know your Will Ferrell hatred.
- 24:55Speaker 3: Sam.
- 24:55Speaker 1: If you had to pick right now, just based on
- 24:57Speaker 1: what we've selected, who would you select?
- 24:59Speaker 4: This is an here you.
- 25:01Speaker 10: I'm asking the weeds here, but I have an easy,
- 25:04Speaker 10: easy mount rushmore for Will Ferrell answering my question. Yes, now,
- 25:10Speaker 10: Jason's the judge. I'm just here quietly judging.
- 25:12Speaker 3: I'm just asking it hypothetically if you were the judge.
- 25:15Speaker 10: I can't even remember who picked what. I'm just disappointing you, guys.
- 25:18Speaker 5: For all your normally normally Dan Bayer has a golden ticket,
- 25:22Speaker 5: I actually have the opposite of a golden ticket, a
- 25:25Speaker 5: rotten egg. Really, if you pick it, you should automatically
- 25:27Speaker 5: get to squad at.
- 25:28Speaker 4: The opposite of a golden ticket.
- 25:30Speaker 9: I wasna I was gonna tell you guys that I
- 25:31Speaker 9: have a Golden Ball and I also have a Pooh Emoji.
- 25:35Speaker 9: Both have been taken. The Golden Ball has been taken
- 25:37Speaker 9: and the Pooh Emoji movie has been taken.
- 25:40Speaker 7: What happens if the same person takes both.
- 25:42Speaker 6: Then I have a decision to make.
- 25:43Speaker 4: Nope, got here on the clock.
- 25:47Speaker 3: All right, my third movie here.
- 25:48Speaker 1: I mean, it's the best movie remaining I think on
- 25:52Speaker 1: the list, I'll go old School.
- 25:54Speaker 6: Old School was the first.
- 25:55Speaker 7: Also the one I took first.
- 25:56Speaker 3: Oh, you took that. It's off the board. Some fortunate.
- 26:02Speaker 1: Nodded in agreements and like I was, Sam, I don't
- 26:05Speaker 1: know who selected what.
- 26:08Speaker 5: Stuart should try to draft Lebron James with the fifteen
- 26:11Speaker 5: of the twenty two thousand and three in NBA draft
- 26:15Speaker 5: them there for me?
- 26:16Speaker 10: When I'm hearing is he being like I didn't even
- 26:17Speaker 10: finish some of these movies? I'm just like, this is outrage.
- 26:21Speaker 10: I demand an investigation. Could it finish?
- 26:25Speaker 7: Whatting?
- 26:27Speaker 4: No, it's not, it's great.
- 26:28Speaker 3: It is.
- 26:29Speaker 10: It just came out out after nine eleven. That's why
- 26:31Speaker 10: people didn't watch it.
- 26:32Speaker 3: No one want to play it. Well, you stop out, Sam,
- 26:35Speaker 3: Jay and Silent Bob strikes.
- 26:37Speaker 4: Bats on my list.
- 26:38Speaker 3: That's where I'm going.
- 26:39Speaker 4: Just that I have no you don't know the same
- 26:42Speaker 4: Jay and Silent Bob movies. Just heard it's so good.
- 26:45Speaker 7: I don't hate it.
- 26:47Speaker 6: I hate that pick.
- 26:48Speaker 4: I'm semi torn here. I've got of the remaining movies
- 26:53Speaker 4: by far my favorite Will Ferrell movie. But there's another
- 26:58Speaker 4: one that's got a couple of lines in it that
- 27:00Speaker 4: I love.
- 27:01Speaker 1: Right, Wait, your favorite Will Farrell movie is still out there,
- 27:04Speaker 1: the one that's remained, like my favorite Will Farah.
- 27:07Speaker 4: Movie is out I already have it, okay, but of
- 27:09Speaker 4: the remainings, this one's my favorite, and I'm gonna choose
- 27:11Speaker 4: it anyway. All right, I'm going with Mega Mind. Wow, yes,
- 27:15Speaker 4: Mega Mind.
- 27:16Speaker 7: I don't hate that.
- 27:17Speaker 4: Hilarious.
- 27:17Speaker 7: I don't hate that.
- 27:19Speaker 3: Shoot, I don't know that.
- 27:22Speaker 4: You don't Mega Mind.
- 27:23Speaker 6: Oh my god, animated?
- 27:26Speaker 4: All right, hilarious, hazy.
- 27:29Speaker 5: I am so glad you picked Mega Mind there, because
- 27:32Speaker 5: I thought you were gonna steal my pick.
- 27:33Speaker 7: Here.
- 27:35Speaker 5: Give me the movie that has Mike Dick. Give me
- 27:38Speaker 5: the movie that has give it to the Italians. It's
- 27:40Speaker 5: kicking and screaming, great movie once he starts coming addicted
- 27:44Speaker 5: to coffee, and then for my snake pick when it's
- 27:47Speaker 5: coming back around. This is a get a cameo in
- 27:50Speaker 5: this movie. But again, I might not have the greatest
- 27:54Speaker 5: movie palette, but if you ask me, what's my favorite
- 27:57Speaker 5: movie of all time? This movie is gonna be in
- 27:59Speaker 5: the conversation. It's Vince Vaughan, Owen Wilson, The Internship, The
- 28:04Speaker 5: intern YEP, trying to save Google.
- 28:06Speaker 7: Wow.
- 28:07Speaker 6: Google.
- 28:08Speaker 5: It's about the people. It's about the people at Google,
- 28:10Speaker 5: not about the technology.
- 28:11Speaker 3: All right.
- 28:11Speaker 4: So my other one that I was debating between Mega
- 28:14Speaker 4: Mind and is still there, and I'm gonna take it,
- 28:16Speaker 4: but I almost feel a little bit nervous about it.
- 28:17Speaker 4: So I'm gonna need Sam to confirm here for me.
- 28:19Speaker 4: All right, Sam, all right, which of the Austin Powers
- 28:23Speaker 4: movies did Will Ferrell drop this line? The wound is
- 28:27Speaker 4: beginning to smell like omens. That's God of me, Austin Powers,
- 28:32Speaker 4: the spy who shagged me?
- 28:33Speaker 11: Right, Uh, Well, that's the one where he was like
- 28:37Speaker 11: he gets burnt, I believe it, doesn't he get ejected
- 28:40Speaker 11: into the seat from the seed into the fire of
- 28:43Speaker 11: the furnace pit or whatever boilers.
- 28:44Speaker 10: In the first one, but also the second one.
- 28:47Speaker 4: Yes, So the second one is when he fell off
- 28:49Speaker 4: a cliff and he was down there. That's the one
- 28:51Speaker 4: where he's like he had to say everything three times?
- 28:53Speaker 7: Right?
- 28:54Speaker 4: Three times are currently So I'm going with Austin Powers,
- 28:57Speaker 4: a spy who shagged me? Because Mikey picked the Austin
- 29:00Speaker 4: Powers film.
- 29:02Speaker 8: Better movie better, Will Ferrell spot? You have the better?
- 29:06Speaker 8: Will Ferrell spot, I have the better movie?
- 29:08Speaker 3: So old school has been taken?
- 29:10Speaker 8: Huh yeah, Stu, what was your first pick?
- 29:15Speaker 3: Anchor man?
- 29:16Speaker 7: Doesn't it have a sequel?
- 29:18Speaker 3: It does?
- 29:19Speaker 2: Boy?
- 29:20Speaker 4: Isn't there one movie in particular where he went out
- 29:23Speaker 4: with other another SNL guy and they were dancing a lot?
- 29:26Speaker 1: Hey, hey, hey, hey, I was thinking about both of
- 29:30Speaker 1: those movies.
- 29:31Speaker 3: Hey, no, I was, But I'm gonna go with Barbie
- 29:34Speaker 3: about that. There you go, Yeah the film buff That's
- 29:39Speaker 3: a good one. Yeah, Barbie sneaky pick there, Well, I've
- 29:43Speaker 3: seen it three times.
- 29:44Speaker 8: I mean, all right, So last pick for me Blades
- 29:49Speaker 8: of Glory, Lego Mingo movies.
- 29:52Speaker 3: Yet Hard. Let me prove, Dick.
- 29:56Speaker 7: I'm gonna I'm gonna take. I'm gonna take Night at the.
- 29:58Speaker 4: Rock, Night at the Rock.
- 30:00Speaker 3: Wow, No one taking Dick? Huh.
- 30:03Speaker 6: I think, Mikey you mentioned Get Hard.
- 30:05Speaker 5: I think if you look at Will Ferrell's IMDb, hey,
- 30:09Speaker 5: Get Hard was the moment where Will Ferrell jumped the shark.
- 30:12Speaker 5: I think that movie was the first movie that I
- 30:14Speaker 5: watched him where I'm like, Okay's he used to be
- 30:17Speaker 5: throwing ninety nine. He used to be the Miz throwing
- 30:20Speaker 5: one oh five. He's currently thrown like ninety four.
- 30:23Speaker 7: Here see, here's the problem.
- 30:25Speaker 8: When he actually jumped the shark was when he tried
- 30:27Speaker 8: to save the office when Steve Carell left, D'Angel v
- 30:31Speaker 8: came on and he tried to beat D'Angelo Vickers and
- 30:34Speaker 8: it just it wasn't funny. It didn't work. So yeah,
- 30:38Speaker 8: I think that's the moment Will Ferrell jumped the Stark.
- 30:40Speaker 8: But let's get to a EP Jason and see what
- 30:44Speaker 8: he asks.
- 30:45Speaker 3: Quick, real quickly. When you said the Miz, I know
- 30:49Speaker 3: you weren't talking about the Mizz.
- 30:50Speaker 1: He shows up the Lake Tahoe, the Wrestler, But I
- 30:52Speaker 1: was imagining as Ryan Fox is going to join us tomorrow,
- 30:55Speaker 1: the Open Championship winner. I was imagining him Taylor playing
- 30:58Speaker 1: a round of golf at the speed he likes to
- 31:01Speaker 1: play at, but playing with the Mizz the Wrestler.
- 31:04Speaker 6: Because I made date, something has to give.
- 31:08Speaker 3: He is the slowest golfer I have ever seen.
- 31:11Speaker 1: All Right, EP Jason oh is the winner of Today's
- 31:15Speaker 1: Mount Rushmore Monday.
- 31:17Speaker 9: You have made me think. And like I said, I
- 31:19Speaker 9: had a golden ball, and there was taken. It was
- 31:21Speaker 9: taken in the first round. Stu picked Anchorman my golden ball,
- 31:26Speaker 9: and my pool emoji was taken in the first round
- 31:29Speaker 9: as well. Izzy chooses Elf.
- 31:32Speaker 4: Not a fan, probably happiness and joy and Christmas and
- 31:36Speaker 4: everything else.
- 31:37Speaker 9: Probably a little too old to enjoy Elf. My son
- 31:39Speaker 9: loves Elf. I think that says a lot. Okay, so
- 31:42Speaker 9: it basically what Stu has to finish in the top two.
- 31:45Speaker 9: But to quote Ricky Bobby, if you ain't in first,
- 31:47Speaker 9: you're in last. Yes, so I'm gonna put Izzy as
- 31:51Speaker 9: my fourth pick. I'm gonna put mikey Uh coming in third.
- 31:54Speaker 9: Those were those were solid, but the Austin Powers was
- 31:57Speaker 9: a little too early for my taste. Stue finished second
- 32:00Speaker 9: and again going back to back, Taylor winning Crashers and
- 32:04Speaker 9: the other guys Farrow nails those parts and the kicking
- 32:08Speaker 9: and screaming internship are very underrated. Taylor with a very
- 32:12Speaker 9: very good selection.
- 32:13Speaker 7: Taylor's my winner today.
- 32:14Speaker 3: So niche such a niche list.
- 32:17Speaker 4: I mean, anybody who watches Mega Mind and doesn't crack up.
- 32:21Speaker 4: I mean, come on, step Metro City step. Thank you.
- 32:25Speaker 5: My rotten egg. That didn't get picked was Holmes and Watson.
- 32:28Speaker 5: Holmes and Watson the only movie that I've ever gone
- 32:30Speaker 5: to where I walked out.
- 32:31Speaker 4: Frankly, that wasn't even on the IMDb list that I saw,
- 32:34Speaker 4: so I can't imagine it was any good ep.
- 32:36Speaker 3: Jason. If I chose Dick, what I have won?
- 32:38Speaker 4: Oh my goodness.
- 32:39Speaker 3: You know.
- 32:40Speaker 9: I give you credit actually for going Barbie. That was
- 32:42Speaker 9: like an Oscar nominated movie that I've totally spaced on,
- 32:45Speaker 9: So credit for that.
- 32:46Speaker 6: But the industry to question. No, Taylor wins US one
- 32:49Speaker 6: hands down.

- 33:23Speaker 1: few minutes. Michael Luck Senior going to join us in
- 33:26Speaker 1: hour number two. Yes, is I have a slight observation
- 33:28Speaker 1: of my own.
- 33:29Speaker 4: You don't mind. There's just certain times where anybody speaks
- 33:33Speaker 4: and just a word that they say, or maybe a
- 33:34Speaker 4: phrase that they say, just kind of catches your ear.
- 33:37Speaker 4: And there was a line that you delivered twice in
- 33:39Speaker 4: that read going into that last break, and you said
- 33:42Speaker 4: a word that I've never heard anybody say the way
- 33:46Speaker 4: you said it. Ricardo, do we have that sound?
- 33:48Speaker 1: That's FanDuel dot Com slash Stegotts to play Daily Dingers
- 33:52Speaker 1: Dingers Dinger.
- 33:54Speaker 4: That's a very hard g on that dingers because most
- 33:58Speaker 4: people just say dingers.
- 33:59Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 33:59Speaker 1: Well, like with Dinger that it should be a hard G.
- 34:03Speaker 1: You're deserving of a hard G. Mike, Yeah, you made
- 34:06Speaker 1: a face there.
- 34:06Speaker 3: What happened? Did I say it right? I mean it?
- 34:09Speaker 8: It did sound weird when when he played it back.
- 34:12Speaker 8: I did hear it. I hear what they're saying.
- 34:14Speaker 1: Okay, do you really because I don't, I mean god,
- 34:17Speaker 1: I don't mean to be defensive like, I'm all about
- 34:19Speaker 1: making fun of myself. I've been doing it for twenty years.
- 34:22Speaker 1: But I feel like Dinger, I said it the way
- 34:24Speaker 1: you're supposed to say it.
- 34:25Speaker 4: I might be wrong here. What do you think, Taylor?
- 34:27Speaker 5: The observation that I had is he you are the
- 34:31Speaker 5: Michael Jordan of coming and forth.
- 34:35Speaker 4: So I'm not heading very many Dingers when it comes
- 34:38Speaker 4: to the Mount Rush from You know what, I just
- 34:39Speaker 4: have different opinions as the people who.
- 34:41Speaker 5: Are everything out or brushmore Monday is he? I just
- 34:43Speaker 5: pencil you in for four.
- 34:46Speaker 1: I am told by EP Jason. We have sound of
- 34:48Speaker 1: Jason mackindyre saying Bellinger with a hard G last week.
- 34:52Speaker 3: I want to hear it. Go ahead.
- 34:53Speaker 2: Cody Bellinger the hero to run RBI single early on
- 34:58Speaker 2: and he ended up getting the Envy Award.
- 35:00Speaker 4: Here's Bellinger on winning the MVP. M Bellinger hitting Dingers.
- 35:06Speaker 3: But it's Bellinger, right, yeah, it.
- 35:08Speaker 6: Is Jude Bellingham.
- 35:11Speaker 7: It's not Dinger though.
- 35:14Speaker 3: Can I hear myself say Dinger one more time? Please? Dingers?
- 35:20Speaker 4: You hear that word? You don't think home runs for
- 35:22Speaker 4: some reason?
- 35:23Speaker 7: Right?
- 35:23Speaker 3: What do you think of like a treat?
- 35:24Speaker 5: Yeah?
- 35:26Speaker 4: Yeah, like something that makes a sound.
- 35:27Speaker 3: Maybe yeah, is he?
- 35:29Speaker 1: So today is the day, according to Pat Bev, that
- 35:33Speaker 1: Lebron James is gonna make his decision. I can't believe
- 35:37Speaker 1: that we're still waiting on Lebron James to make up
- 35:40Speaker 1: his mind. But the World Cup is over, Lebron has
- 35:44Speaker 1: the stage to himself. I imagine it will come down, you know,
- 35:47Speaker 1: today tomorrow, on a non eventful sports day.
- 35:51Speaker 3: So what do you think here?
- 35:52Speaker 4: I have a difficult time, no matter how much I
- 35:55Speaker 4: think it makes the most basketball sense and the most
- 35:58Speaker 4: family sense. Let me say this one more time. If
- 36:02Speaker 4: Lebron wants to be as good a dad as possible,
- 36:05Speaker 4: Miami is as where Bronni should be.
- 36:08Speaker 3: Yes, you're saying he's already a good dad, But if
- 36:10Speaker 3: you were the best.
- 36:11Speaker 4: Dad, correct, right, then Miami is the best place for
- 36:14Speaker 4: Brownie long term. But I just have a hard time
- 36:17Speaker 4: envisioning a second time that Lebron James lets down the
- 36:22Speaker 4: people of Cleveland, right because obviously, in twenty ten, most people,
- 36:26Speaker 4: most people without any insight, thought yeah, he's probably gonna
- 36:28Speaker 4: go back, and then you know, chooses. Miami famously burn
- 36:31Speaker 4: a bunch of jerseys and everybody hated him for a while,
- 36:34Speaker 4: I have a hard time believing that's gonna happen again.
- 36:37Speaker 4: I believe him sort of teasing all these other teams
- 36:40Speaker 4: and toying with all these other teams is the way
- 36:42Speaker 4: to say, Hey, Cleveland, despite all that, I'm still here
- 36:46Speaker 4: with you for my last year, maybe last two years,
- 36:49Speaker 4: in large part because you know, there's a documentary involved,
- 36:52Speaker 4: there's the whole retirement tour and everything else. And while
- 36:55Speaker 4: he did say he has some unfinished business in Miami,
- 36:58Speaker 4: I think rich Paul might have said that maybe not
- 37:00Speaker 4: on that it just doesn't feel like it's enough of
- 37:03Speaker 4: a tug to get him down here one more time,
- 37:06Speaker 4: even though, like I said, it makes the most basketball sense.
- 37:08Speaker 4: A lot of people are coming around to.
- 37:09Speaker 5: If I could just clear up some things around Lebron James.
- 37:12Speaker 5: ESPN's Dave mcmanhamon said Rich Paul told him Friday there
- 37:15Speaker 5: are no perfect options for Lebron. Kendrick Perkins said he
- 37:18Speaker 5: heard Miami is at the top of the list, and
- 37:20Speaker 5: then Mark Spears told him an NBA coach said it's
- 37:23Speaker 5: Cleveland or Philadelphia or Golden State.
- 37:25Speaker 6: So exactly for everybody.
- 37:27Speaker 3: Perfectly clear, exactly the way Lebron wants.
- 37:29Speaker 4: It's exactly the way I see all those squigly colored
- 37:31Speaker 4: lines every time I see the Calci update. I don't
- 37:33Speaker 4: know who's in the lead here, but I don't believe
- 37:36Speaker 4: any of that stuff is real. I believe Lebron has
- 37:37Speaker 4: already decided and it's just sitting back laughing at everybody
- 37:40Speaker 4: else's reporting.
- 37:41Speaker 1: It's the one team he kind of hasn't mentioned. You know,
- 37:43Speaker 1: he did the trust the process. There's some Miami stuff
- 37:46Speaker 1: that he said. He hasn't really mentioned Cleveland. Yes, daylor So.
- 37:49Speaker 5: I know Lebron has done a ton for Rich Paul
- 37:51Speaker 5: already in Rich Paul's career. But if you're Rich Paul,
- 37:53Speaker 5: you have to be looking at Lebron being like, can
- 37:54Speaker 5: you please break this news on my podcast?
- 37:56Speaker 4: Yes, that's a great point. He forgot about his podcast.
- 38:00Speaker 4: That's the perfect place to do it.
- 38:01Speaker 3: No, doesn't Lebron have one?
- 38:04Speaker 4: Yeah? I think it's on the end season though.
- 38:07Speaker 1: Our thanks to Mike Golick Senior for joining us. We
- 38:09Speaker 1: have a new list we've had. We finished the show
- 38:12Speaker 1: just about every day with some sort of list. We
- 38:15Speaker 1: have had the Bleacher Reports Top one hundred NBA players
- 38:18Speaker 1: of all time.
- 38:18Speaker 4: That was a good one.
- 38:19Speaker 1: Yep, we had the Bleacher Reports top one hundred quarterbacks
- 38:24Speaker 1: of all time from a year before.
- 38:25Speaker 7: That was a bad one.
- 38:26Speaker 4: One of those is from a year earlier.
- 38:28Speaker 1: Well, speaking of bad ones, we had the Ricardo Report
- 38:31Speaker 1: with fifty shows that are better than Breaking Bad. He
- 38:35Speaker 1: had fifty television shows that were better than Breaking Bad.
- 38:38Speaker 1: And so mikey As demanded a new list. Here he
- 38:41Speaker 1: is in charge of this list. What is the new list?
- 38:44Speaker 1: Where'd you get it from? Give us the details, mikey.
- 38:46Speaker 8: So this is the one hundred greatest baseball players of
- 38:51Speaker 8: all time. It is not from a year ago because
- 38:54Speaker 8: it is updated yearly by the person who runs this site,
- 38:58Speaker 8: the hundred Greatest dot.
- 39:00Speaker 4: All right, wow, it's a great We not go straight
- 39:04Speaker 4: to this website to start this process, but okay, I
- 39:06Speaker 4: guess we'll figure.
- 39:06Speaker 1: Out how did I not grab that domain name sell
- 39:09Speaker 1: it to somebody else, like the guy who's doing it
- 39:11Speaker 1: right now. I tell her, you love the name of
- 39:13Speaker 1: that site, don't you. I saw you glow, I saw
- 39:15Speaker 1: you light up.
- 39:16Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 39:16Speaker 5: I like the name of the list. But if I'm
- 39:18Speaker 5: getting my baseball stuff, I'd rather get it from like
- 39:20Speaker 5: Joe Poznansky.
- 39:21Speaker 4: Ah.
- 39:22Speaker 3: Yeah, Joe has.
- 39:23Speaker 7: Joe Poznanski needs to talk baseball, the name like that
- 39:26Speaker 7: just needs.
- 39:26Speaker 3: To Yeah, and he does. He does it very well.
- 39:30Speaker 1: So we have no idea who wrote this list, who
- 39:32Speaker 1: came up with the list? Like the actual person? No, no, okay,
- 39:35Speaker 1: who cares?
- 39:37Speaker 4: Am I going to recognize these names in the eighties
- 39:39Speaker 4: and nineties?
- 39:40Speaker 3: Of course?
- 39:40Speaker 7: Yes, okay, you will recognize a lot of these names.
- 39:43Speaker 8: The goal of this list, honestly is to make Ricardo
- 39:46Speaker 8: as angry at the list as I was at his list.
- 39:50Speaker 7: Is that is my ultimate goal in this list?
- 39:52Speaker 3: So there are no Marlins on the list? Is that
- 39:53Speaker 3: what you're saying?
- 39:54Speaker 7: I mean, I We'll have to wait and see.
- 39:57Speaker 3: All right?
- 39:58Speaker 7: Uh?
- 39:58Speaker 3: Is he ready for this? Yeah? Baseball is back.
