  Speaker 2: University at Tennessee.

  Speaker 1: My goodness, man, he is using us as an opportunity
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: to keep that football I think going until we got
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: him a job. Proud of your coach. Can't wait to
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: see you and to make sure I have some good
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: presidentials and I go to neland Stadium. Also, Clifffield did
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: a wonderful job this week on the NHL Expansion Show.
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: We covered an awful lot of ground and Rachel Galvin Entertainment.
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: You name it.
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: Rachel and I we go back a long time. I
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: swear she's an absolute adorable woman. And you know, I'll
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: tell you this is something that I have been waiting
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: to say for a long time. Let's go back to
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: the Rod Peterson Joe. There will be a lot of
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: Rod Peterson Joe's mentioned, and this is the first one
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: of naming. Let'll make sure Ron Peterson Joe is definitely
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: promoted heavily to Night on the Big Show. Last week's show,
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: Ron said USA had better players Canada a better team
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: Saturday Night in USA three to one win.
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: Do you still believe that?
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: But before you answer that question, mister Peterson, they had
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: three fights in the first nine seconds and thirty two
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: penalty minutes of sass. We got to start with the
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: man who went out there as we get ready to
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: go to this contest. What do you think they're mister Peterson,
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: how do you feel about that comment?
• 3:42
  Speaker 5: I feel that it doesn't matter what.
• 3:44
  Speaker 6: I think we'll find out over the course of the
• 3:47
  Speaker 6: next three hours who has the better team period. Canada
• 3:52
  Speaker 6: was favored going in by the oddsmakers. The US won
• 3:55
  Speaker 6: the round robin game three to one with an empty
• 3:58
  Speaker 6: net goal. I think you know Barb is a hockey guy.
• 4:01
  Speaker 6: George nos hockey. The teams are right here, okay, so
• 4:07
  Speaker 6: we're don't ask me. They'll settle it on the ice.
• 4:10
  Speaker 6: It's fun to talk about, but we're not gonna sort
• 4:12
  Speaker 6: anything out here.
• 4:13
  Speaker 5: The players will sort it out.
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: That's okay, that's a fair answer. I gotta give you credit, Rod,
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: But we had to bring it up as a lead topic.
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: Why because this game here is so important to get
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: this first take. And I'm gonna lead into you guys
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: had it on today, the NHL versus the NBA, and
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: the people that they had on there were Steven A. Smith,
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: Chris Canty, Ryan Windhorth, Molly Karen and PK Suban and
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: I don't know if you had a chance to watch
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: that rod if you don't, go over to the first
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: Take YouTube channel that I actually recorded that and watched
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: it on my other TV. One of the few things
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: that I've technic technology technological he qualified to do is
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: that a record button on our big screen TV and
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: be able to find it. Otherwise I'd be looking for
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: my technological expertise. That woman sitting next to me handles
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: all the brains word, So there you go, so letteya.
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: PK.
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: Suban did an excellent job representing the sport of hockey.
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: But I still think that the any the NBA is
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: the cream of the crap. Okay, and I don't really
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: get into those kinds of language very much, but this
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: was appropriate.
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: I could and I love my brother from another mother,
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: Steven A. Smith.
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: Let me tell you that guy was awesome. He was
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: able to take back heads up to the only thing
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: they missed on that show with load management.
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: But PK.
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: Supman went out there and mentioned that all NHL players participate.
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: People people participate, NBA players don't participate. All that takes
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: to do is seventeen cot kicking games. You can't win
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: an award load management people, NHL load management forget that day.
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: Don't have it all right? Well that said mister Verdi,
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: what are your thoughts about what we saw about Rodd's
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: initial statement? Even though I give them an credit, he
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: was wrong on the first time. He could be getting
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: the last by the end of the night tonight. But
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: we'll see. The stage is sat in Boston. Go ahead, ride,
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: I mean Mark, I have Rod on my mind.
• 6:10
  Speaker 7: Honestly, I don't think Sidney Crosby loses tonight. If you
• 6:13
  Speaker 7: really want my honest opinion, He's twenty seven and one. Yeah,
• 6:18
  Speaker 7: he's twenty seven and one in the international play since
• 6:21
  Speaker 7: twenty ten. Uh, he's going to bring that mystique, leadership
• 6:26
  Speaker 7: and all the confidence that he has as a one
• 6:30
  Speaker 7: of the faces of the game for many years.
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: And lead that team.
• 6:33
  Speaker 7: He's got a hot Nathan McKinnon shooting the puck. Uh,
• 6:36
  Speaker 7: it's time for Connor McDavid to actually step his game
• 6:41
  Speaker 7: up a little bit more than what it has. If anything,
• 6:46
  Speaker 7: I worry about the goaltending. But you know, if I'm
• 6:48
  Speaker 7: riding with anybody tonight, I am ride with Canada more
• 6:52
  Speaker 7: so than the US.
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: It's fair, I gets interjected, No problem with what about you?
• 6:59
  Speaker 4: Ge well, I am sticking with the United States winning tonight.
• 7:04
  Speaker 4: I mean, the crowd in Boston is gonna be unbelievable.
• 7:08
  Speaker 4: I know that there are a lot of great players
• 7:11
  Speaker 4: on both teams.
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: Let's not kid ourselves.
• 7:12
  Speaker 4: This is an enormous, enormous game tonight, and the Four
• 7:15
  Speaker 4: Nations has been really very successful as it replaced the
• 7:19
  Speaker 4: All Star Break this year in the NHL.
• 7:22
  Speaker 3: That being said, it's gonna be a hell of a game.
• 7:25
  Speaker 4: And all those fights that you mentioned Scott and Rot
• 7:27
  Speaker 4: and that first game are the last meeting. I mean,
• 7:30
  Speaker 4: oh my gosh, I mean that was just through the
• 7:32
  Speaker 4: roof the Uh, some of those grudge matches we'll talk
• 7:35
  Speaker 4: about later. But anyways, that was a good That was
• 7:37
  Speaker 4: a good start to this rivalry and it's gonna continue tonight.
• 7:41
  Speaker 4: But I'm gonna go down and say that the US
• 7:43
  Speaker 4: is gonna come away with a victory tonight.
• 7:45
  Speaker 8: Candy, I'm gonna I'm gonna put joshuas coming up here
• 7:52
  Speaker 8: because I kind of do agree. I mean, these two
• 7:54
  Speaker 8: teams are really they're both gonna battle hard. The better
• 7:58
  Speaker 8: co Hollywood win the game. I think part of the
• 8:02
  Speaker 8: other advantage maybe is going to be that USA is
• 8:06
  Speaker 8: at home, and I think the crowd will bring it
• 8:10
  Speaker 8: and that might bring enough. But kudos to the NHL
• 8:15
  Speaker 8: because even Canada's head coach John Cooper's even went as
• 8:19
  Speaker 8: far to say nothing's done more for hockey in a
• 8:24
  Speaker 8: decade than what this tournament has done.
• 8:29
  Speaker 9: That's pretty powerful if you think about it.
• 8:32
  Speaker 8: Nothing that they have done in a decade has done
• 8:35
  Speaker 8: more for the sport than this. So kudos to the
• 8:40
  Speaker 8: NHL for coming up with this for and you know,
• 8:45
  Speaker 8: bringing it to life and bringing it to fruition. We
• 8:47
  Speaker 8: all know next year they're not going to have this
• 8:50
  Speaker 8: because it's going to be the Olympics. But comparative to
• 8:54
  Speaker 8: like the NBA All Star Game, which got what a
• 8:57
  Speaker 8: measly four point eight million, even the realm Robin Night
• 9:03
  Speaker 8: with Canada and USA got ten point one million viewers,
• 9:07
  Speaker 8: So they blew the NBA out of the water. And
• 9:11
  Speaker 8: you would normally, if you're thinking about the top four sports,
• 9:16
  Speaker 8: you're probably going to put NBA before NHL.
• 9:19
  Speaker 9: But look at this. What happened with this.
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: Well, ABA simply got obliterated. That's all that's to it.
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: No, I mean, there's no two ways about NHL has
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: always tinker with their format, but they've done it with
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: a great way of doing it with their international type
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: of part anticipation with our the Olympics, the Canada Cup
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: and the World Cup, you name all the tournaments. They
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: get it right. No matter you don't need East West
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: and all that business. They make sure their best players.
• 9:46
  Speaker 3: Are out there.
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: Maybe a few of them out left out based I
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: have to make it look at difference. I think the
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: one thing that Ron and I talked about on his show,
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: which was really awesome, it really was, is that we
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: talked about the national anthem and the thing he was
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: asking me on point, which is really a good question.
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: I'm glad you brought it Uproud, And that's about this.
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: The US took the high road by not booing the
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: daylights out of Canada when they were in town.
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: Unfortunately Montreal didn't quite do that. I get it.
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: I understand that is that acceptable, you know what? I
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: under I didn't. I think it's unacceptable, but it's understandable
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: in light of where we are at that point. Rod
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: did a really sensational job the way he was able
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: to preface that question, and I wanted to make sure
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: that everything was clear that many years ago when George
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: too was it better than others? And when I called
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: the Montreal morons on there, I got ridiculed and more
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: death thrits and politicians to lie is what I did
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: with that, And George had to take that story off
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: and I wrote a follow up and that was powerful.
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: But then we ended up follow finding up.
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: There was a conspiracy theory behind the whole thing, and
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: that there was a what was it, George, somebody from
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: the Montreal Canadian stage that old thing. I didn't go
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: it out there, and because myself you don't buo the
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: national this time there's a little bit more understandable justification.
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: That's really what it was, and I had no problem
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: with it. For Rod.
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: Again, there are a lot of good things that occurred
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: on the Rod Peterson Show, and I want to make
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: sure that that point was explicitly brought up, because you
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: were really on point in that first segment telling you
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: it was really awesome stuff.
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: Then all right, well, you know.
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: What some of news, there's gonna be a couple of
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: topics that we're not gonna like to talk about tonight.
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: I want to preface that off the hand, because you know,
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: we talked in sports about the good, the band, and
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: the ugly. Well, one of them is the ugly. Bobby
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: All had CTE revealed this week by a concussion Legacy foundation. Okay, Rod,
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: were your thoughts about Bobby All the Golden Jet?
• 11:43
  Speaker 5: To be honest, when.
• 11:44
  Speaker 6: I heard it, I was a little speechless because I
• 11:48
  Speaker 6: honestly associate CTE with football players. I was talking about
• 11:54
  Speaker 6: it with Serena and my wife, and she pointed out
• 11:58
  Speaker 6: that Bobby played without a helmet.
• 12:01
  Speaker 5: Obviously it's a contact sport injury and Bobby, I'll be on.
• 12:06
  Speaker 6: I was born in nineteen seventy two. Bobby's heyday was
• 12:08
  Speaker 6: the sixties, certainly in the NHL, right, so I.
• 12:11
  Speaker 5: Didn't really see him play.
• 12:13
  Speaker 6: But I guess, more than anything, I it was I wish,
• 12:17
  Speaker 6: I say, a sobering story, you know, a sad story.
• 12:22
  Speaker 6: I just don't associate it with hockey players, and I
• 12:24
  Speaker 6: think this would. I would think it's made a lot
• 12:27
  Speaker 6: of people kind of sit up and know because Bobby
• 12:30
  Speaker 6: had a lot of erratic behavior as he got older
• 12:33
  Speaker 6: in life, and it's a big story. This is not
• 12:38
  Speaker 6: a casual story. I was happy to see it in
• 12:40
  Speaker 6: your topics here. What does it mean? Other than to
• 12:43
  Speaker 6: take care of your brain a little better if you can,
• 12:46
  Speaker 6: especially if you're playing sports at a young age.
• 12:48
  Speaker 5: This is a scary story.
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: Well, I gotta get Joshua Door credit a little bit.
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: He brought it to my initial attention. Then I did
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: the research on it. Josh O Gore likes to contribute
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: topics from time to time, and he nailed this right on.
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: But you know, Ron, I will say this much. Yes,
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: you were born in nineteen seventy two, is that correct?
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: But your a hockey historian of sorts. You're brought up
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: with the sport. But not like you're illiterate and stupid
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: about it. You know full well the man played with
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: the Winnipeg Jets and he had a great career, So
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: it's not like you're ignorant about that, but him at all,
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: i'llbit you didn't see him play it that much. Of course,
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: you had a chance to see him play if you're
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: a tight little tyke over in the WHA. And he's
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: still performing at a decent level. So I understand the
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: fact that your hockey background, and when I brought it up,
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: it was important to bring this thing out. It really
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: really was important that you're talking about the fact that, yes,
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: hockey doesn't get as many cet see. I'm sorry, CTE.
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: That's or min Alzheimer's is popping in a little bit. Nah,
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: maybe it does, senior moment. I don't pay about Alzheimer's
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: this time comes.
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: In to play.
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: I don't know full well that CTE is predominantly known
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: for football. One of the biggest things that we did
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: over at the Super Bowl was I went to the
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: NFLPA along with Candy and we talked about helmet injury
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: and head injuries, and that's something we do and I'll
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: hit me I get a lot of things on the
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: from the NFL media distribution list. I'll be talking that
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: on a future audition of Inside the Pix. But obviously,
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: when Joshua brought it to my initial attention, there was
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: no doubt I with not leaving this off tonight's show.
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: And that's why we're talking about tonight, mister Merdi. I
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: want you to talk about Bobby All.
• 14:20
  Speaker 7: I really think that he brought that to light because
• 14:23
  Speaker 7: there's a lot of other guys out there that are
• 14:25
  Speaker 7: suffering from it and have it come forward, and they
• 14:28
  Speaker 7: needed somebody to be their mouthpiece. To be honest, with you.
• 14:32
  Speaker 7: I mean, whereas in football it's always come to light
• 14:36
  Speaker 7: because you've had so many guys display that crazy erratic behavior,
• 14:41
  Speaker 7: like you said, but in hockey it has to be
• 14:46
  Speaker 7: much more prevalent in the pre helmet days, the preface
• 14:51
  Speaker 7: mass days, you know, that kind of stuff than what
• 14:53
  Speaker 7: it's ever been. And I really think he kind of
• 14:56
  Speaker 7: is the mouthpiece for it, and I think it took
• 15:00
  Speaker 7: a lot of courage for him to come forward and
• 15:02
  Speaker 7: speak about it, you know, because not everybody, uh has
• 15:06
  Speaker 7: the capability of putting something like that out in public,
• 15:09
  Speaker 7: because then people start looking at them a little bit different,
• 15:12
  Speaker 7: especially somebody with with Hall's stature in the game. So
• 15:16
  Speaker 7: that's my piece on it.
• 15:18
  Speaker 4: George, Yeah, I you know, I'm I'm also very happy
• 15:23
  Speaker 4: that they're sharing this news with us, because we don't
• 15:27
  Speaker 4: want to see more men and women. It's a it's
• 15:30
  Speaker 4: a sport that obviously has taken over many countries with
• 15:34
  Speaker 4: teams and not only the NHL, but on the amateur
• 15:37
  Speaker 4: side and and minor leagues and and things like that
• 15:40
  Speaker 4: as well. So it doesn't totally surprise me. The Golden
• 15:44
  Speaker 4: Jet was one of the most dynamic personalities in hockey.
• 15:47
  Speaker 3: In that era.
• 15:48
  Speaker 4: He played in the era with you know, Stan Makita
• 15:51
  Speaker 4: and Gordie Howe and and John Bellivo and these guys.
• 15:54
  Speaker 4: And Bobby was a great ambassador for the game for
• 15:58
  Speaker 4: a long time. I know the NH hell didn't like
• 16:00
  Speaker 4: it when he switched over to the WHA, but that's
• 16:03
  Speaker 4: a different subject. We had a fellow here in Detroit,
• 16:06
  Speaker 4: Johann Franzen. I've seen it before in hockey. I know, Mark,
• 16:12
  Speaker 4: you said it's not as prevalent, but I you know,
• 16:15
  Speaker 4: and it isn't just as much as football is.
• 16:17
  Speaker 3: But it does happen.
• 16:18
  Speaker 4: And I think if you look back on the last
• 16:21
  Speaker 4: dozen or twelve are a dozen or two decades years,
• 16:26
  Speaker 4: there are a lot of players that are still suffering
• 16:28
  Speaker 4: in hockey from these hits and from the stress.
• 16:32
  Speaker 3: That the game has put on to them in their health.
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: Andy.
• 16:38
  Speaker 8: In December of twenty twenty four, the Boston University CT
• 16:44
  Speaker 8: Center published the largest ever study of deceased male hockey players,
• 16:50
  Speaker 8: finding that eighteen of nineteen NHL players studied had CTE,
• 16:56
  Speaker 8: including Hull, Ralph Bastrom, Stan Mitica, Bob Probert, and Derek Bogard.
• 17:04
  Speaker 8: The BU study also found that the odds of developing
• 17:08
  Speaker 8: CTE increased by thirty four percent for each year of
• 17:16
  Speaker 8: hockey played. Pull played professionally for twenty three years, fifteen
• 17:21
  Speaker 8: seasons in the NHL, most notably for the Blackhawks, where
• 17:25
  Speaker 8: he won a Stanley Cup. I will say Scott, besides
• 17:30
  Speaker 8: going to the NFLPA when we were at Super Bowl Week,
• 17:36
  Speaker 8: we also were introduced to other was he was a doctor.
• 17:42
  Speaker 8: He's done research and he's come up with a mouthguard
• 17:48
  Speaker 8: that helps diffuse the hits from verbrating up, vibrating up
• 17:55
  Speaker 8: into the head and brings the vibrations down so you're
• 17:59
  Speaker 8: less like to have some of that concussions. And then
• 18:03
  Speaker 8: we saw somebody else that is doing helmets and stuff
• 18:07
  Speaker 8: like that. But I would be watching because I would
• 18:11
  Speaker 8: the guy that wants to talk about the malt guards.
• 18:14
  Speaker 8: He's going to be coming up on a future episode
• 18:16
  Speaker 8: of one of our shows, so we'll go into that
• 18:19
  Speaker 8: more when we talk to him. But yes, it's definitely
• 18:23
  Speaker 8: something that's on top of mine, and this only proves
• 18:26
  Speaker 8: that it's not just football players.
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: Well, I'm glad Josh would probably up. I'm glad we
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: made it a very intricate part of our show. All
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: right next.
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: Gary Betman plans to retire in two years. Should the
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: NHL be concerned, Rod.
• 18:43
  Speaker 6: Well, No, And to be honest, I somebody wrote into
• 18:49
  Speaker 6: my show with that report a couple of weeks ago
• 18:51
  Speaker 6: that Gary Bevan was going to retire in two years.
• 18:53
  Speaker 6: But last week when this four Nations face off open,
• 18:57
  Speaker 6: they had a news conference with Betman and he said
• 18:59
  Speaker 6: he has plans to retire.
• 19:01
  Speaker 5: I don't know where that came from. He said, is
• 19:04
  Speaker 5: I think he's seventy this year?
• 19:05
  Speaker 6: During seventy this year, and he said, as long as
• 19:07
  Speaker 6: he has the energy to continue to do.
• 19:10
  Speaker 5: This job he wants to do. If he lives in Boca.
• 19:13
  Speaker 5: He's actually had a lot of Panthers games. He's a
• 19:16
  Speaker 5: legitimate hockey.
• 19:17
  Speaker 6: Fan, and he's getting I feel, rightfully so all the
• 19:21
  Speaker 6: credit for this four Nations face off. For when John
• 19:24
  Speaker 6: Cooper said it's the best thing that's happened to hockey
• 19:26
  Speaker 6: in a decade, Betman's getting the kudos.
• 19:28
  Speaker 5: There are people saying, no, no, no, it wasn't him.
• 19:31
  Speaker 5: I don't know. He's the commissioner. Let's give the guy
• 19:34
  Speaker 5: his due.
• 19:36
  Speaker 6: This has been the best thing to happen in hockey
• 19:37
  Speaker 6: in at least a decade and the any Chuck can
• 19:41
  Speaker 6: do no wrong to me, for in my mind, I
• 19:43
  Speaker 6: love Gary Bettman, so I hope he does sit around
• 19:46
  Speaker 6: for a long time.
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: Oh news to me, he lives in pretty cool stuff.
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: I'm trying to remember. Was that John Ziegler was a guy, yes,
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: and that league was a mess when Gary inherited it. Yeah,
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: so I got to give Gary kredit. I mean, you
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: talk about the fact that NHL couldn't buy a national
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: television contract, and Gary Bettman, because of his involvement with
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: the NBA and David Stern, fixed that quick. I know
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: they had to initially pay for their television rights, but
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: then ultimately the product on the ice enabled them to
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: get paid instead of having to pay in It's good
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: news there. We won't be spaying a lot of time
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: thanks to Rod Pearson. We have other topics I want
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: to get to, but we want to make sure we
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: get this out as well. All right, Mark, we're your
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: talks about Garry Betman.
• 20:28
  Speaker 7: Well, I actually don't mind Betman either, but I think
• 20:32
  Speaker 7: he needs to do a little bit better. I think
• 20:34
  Speaker 7: the NHL in general needs to do a little bit
• 20:36
  Speaker 7: better job of marketing the game I feel like it's
• 20:40
  Speaker 7: the best game out there. I honestly do. It's a
• 20:43
  Speaker 7: very physical, very fast game in so many ways, is
• 20:47
  Speaker 7: very much of a gentlemanly game. But I feel like
• 20:51
  Speaker 7: it's grossly underappreciated across the country and we have the
• 20:57
  Speaker 7: you know, the NHL is predominantly America, and they just
• 21:01
  Speaker 7: need to do a little bit better job. He needs
• 21:03
  Speaker 7: to figure out how to do a little bit better job.
• 21:05
  Speaker 7: Whether it's more aggressive marketing team, I'm not sure. I'm
• 21:11
  Speaker 7: not sure i'd be getting big money like they do.
• 21:14
  Speaker 7: But that's my only qualm with him. Like I don't
• 21:19
  Speaker 7: I don't really have a problem with with a lot
• 21:21
  Speaker 7: of the things that go on there. I do think
• 21:23
  Speaker 7: that the officiating has been better this year than what
• 21:27
  Speaker 7: it happened. There's been less guys needed to be suspended
• 21:33
  Speaker 7: for doing some off the off the wall stuff. So
• 21:36
  Speaker 7: you know that speaks volumes two for the direction the
• 21:39
  Speaker 7: game is going. He's taking fighting a lot out of
• 21:42
  Speaker 7: the game, a lot. You know, Yes, there is here
• 21:44
  Speaker 7: and there, but I see more fights when I go
• 21:46
  Speaker 7: to a Hershey Bears game than I see in two
• 21:49
  Speaker 7: weeks watching a watching NHL games. So yeah, yeah, I
• 21:54
  Speaker 7: support the fact that he's going to stick around. I
• 21:56
  Speaker 7: think it's a good thing for the game.
• 21:59
  Speaker 4: R Well, Gary Bettman will always be remembered that Detroit
• 22:05
  Speaker 4: has the guy that they like to boo as you
• 22:07
  Speaker 4: know that the Red Wings won for Stanley Cups with
• 22:10
  Speaker 4: Mike Yelich as their owner, and every time Betman was
• 22:13
  Speaker 4: presenting the cup to the Red Wings, the fans just
• 22:15
  Speaker 4: laid into him.
• 22:16
  Speaker 3: That doesn't mean much, but it is. It is a little.
• 22:18
  Speaker 4: Sidebar I wanted to throw out there. I think Gary's
• 22:21
  Speaker 4: done a good job though. I mean, you know, fans,
• 22:24
  Speaker 4: you know, if you're rooting for your team and that
• 22:26
  Speaker 4: and you see something or blame the officials for calls
• 22:29
  Speaker 4: or lack of calls.
• 22:30
  Speaker 3: But I mean, this man has done innovative things.
• 22:33
  Speaker 4: He has you know, I've ben talk about one hundred
• 22:36
  Speaker 4: and ten thousand people and we're on a Chivalry Day
• 22:40
  Speaker 4: on New Year's Day Toronto and Detroit, you know, talk
• 22:43
  Speaker 4: about the Poor Nations Cup.
• 22:44
  Speaker 3: You know, and other things that he's done.
• 22:47
  Speaker 4: So I'm not a huge, huge fan of him, but
• 22:51
  Speaker 4: I think he's done a very good job.
• 22:53
  Speaker 3: And like you said, Scott, I'm glad you brought that up.
• 22:55
  Speaker 4: He tutored, tutored under the great David Stern from the NBA.
• 23:00
  Speaker 4: And I really think that Betman is going to go
• 23:03
  Speaker 4: out on his out, whether it's two years or whether
• 23:05
  Speaker 4: it's more than two years. But I give him a
• 23:08
  Speaker 4: B plus. He's done a really good job, all right, Candy.
• 23:13
  Speaker 9: So my question to.
• 23:15
  Speaker 8: Everybody is, and this is not really he's been the
• 23:20
  Speaker 8: commissioner since ninety three, like that's a long time, and
• 23:26
  Speaker 8: how much has he grown the sport? Yes, he's done
• 23:28
  Speaker 8: some things right now recently that have been innovative, you know,
• 23:32
  Speaker 8: putting the game out in Salt Lake, doing like the
• 23:35
  Speaker 8: Michigan Big House.
• 23:37
  Speaker 9: But I also like when I'm.
• 23:39
  Speaker 8: Looking at him and what he's done for his sport.
• 23:45
  Speaker 8: And let's face it, my favorite sport is NFL, and
• 23:49
  Speaker 8: I look at what Roger Goodell and what they have
• 23:52
  Speaker 8: done with their sport and how they've taken it not
• 23:56
  Speaker 8: just up to Canada, but they've taken it overseas, Brazil, Germany, London,
• 24:03
  Speaker 8: like they really have expanded. And has the NHL done that? Yes,
• 24:08
  Speaker 8: you know, they get more, you know, but how much
• 24:11
  Speaker 8: have they done it and have like like you said
• 24:16
  Speaker 8: the barber, have they really marketed it enough to get
• 24:21
  Speaker 8: more people to watch.
• 24:23
  Speaker 9: Now. I know I live down here in South Florida.
• 24:26
  Speaker 9: It's warm.
• 24:27
  Speaker 8: People don't necessarily think about hockey, and the Panthers have
• 24:30
  Speaker 8: for a long time before this were not good and
• 24:34
  Speaker 8: they didn't draw people.
• 24:37
  Speaker 9: But what can we do better to make it.
• 24:39
  Speaker 8: More of a sport? When I lived in Wisconsin, it
• 24:42
  Speaker 8: was more of a sport. You know, the Wisconsin Badgers
• 24:45
  Speaker 8: have a really great hockey team, and I remember going
• 24:48
  Speaker 8: to the Frozen Four and being excited for some of
• 24:50
  Speaker 8: those things. But I don't see the marketing of it
• 24:53
  Speaker 8: as much as I see like the NFL.
• 24:58
  Speaker 7: Can I jump in here, of course, I think you
• 25:01
  Speaker 7: need to look at beyond. And this is me saying
• 25:03
  Speaker 7: after after I'm talking about marketing the NHL, I think
• 25:07
  Speaker 7: you need to look across the country and how much
• 25:08
  Speaker 7: you Talkie is is taking a giant step. And in
• 25:12
  Speaker 7: terms of the draft, look at how many young American
• 25:15
  Speaker 7: kids are being drafted now, being drafted high in the game,
• 25:19
  Speaker 7: because the game is really caught on in America. From
• 25:22
  Speaker 7: that perspective, I just think marketing the game at the
• 25:25
  Speaker 7: professional level is where they need a little chef. They
• 25:28
  Speaker 7: need to figure out how to get people to watch
• 25:32
  Speaker 7: the games more often. It's on ESPN, guys, and and
• 25:36
  Speaker 7: let's face it, how much does ESPN market it?
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: When?
• 25:39
  Speaker 7: When do you see a commercial? When do you see
• 25:42
  Speaker 7: something come across your screen on the computer?
• 25:44
  Speaker 5: What?
• 25:44
  Speaker 2: You know?
• 25:45
  Speaker 7: Like, it's not marketed as much as it should be
• 25:48
  Speaker 7: in my opinion from that perspective.
• 25:53
  Speaker 3: Can I add one?
• 25:54
  Speaker 4: Thanks God and Candy, you are the queen of stats
• 25:58
  Speaker 4: and looking things up, so please don't take this personally.
• 26:02
  Speaker 4: But since nineteen ninety seven, the NHL has staged forty
• 26:05
  Speaker 4: six regular season games and venues outside.
• 26:08
  Speaker 3: Of North America.
• 26:10
  Speaker 4: And I know, like you said, it may not be
• 26:12
  Speaker 4: a habit of an impact that does the NFL, but
• 26:15
  Speaker 4: you know he has tried to get the game out
• 26:19
  Speaker 4: in the Europe and elsewhere.
• 26:22
  Speaker 7: Okay, to add to that, look at the salary cap.
• 26:26
  Speaker 7: How much it's going to increase the next three years.
• 26:28
  Speaker 7: The salary cap of the NHL is supposed to be
• 26:30
  Speaker 7: one hundred and thirteen million in the next three three years.
• 26:34
  Speaker 7: That's a huge growth for them because they've really been
• 26:37
  Speaker 7: stagnanty one point five two million for the last few years,
• 26:42
  Speaker 7: and now they're going to make a giant jump over
• 26:44
  Speaker 7: a three year period of time. That really helps the
• 26:47
  Speaker 7: game too.
• 26:48
  Speaker 3: Wow.
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: I've always thought that the NHL players with grossly underpaid.
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: I really do, especially compared to the NBA players. And today,
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: when I watched the first take, I already knew it.
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: The word loading in and it doesn't exist in the NHL.
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: They need more.
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: They have more dental work than any of their sport
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: I've ever seen, my goodness. I mean, if you go
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: out there and lose teeth, I'm sure they got an
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: in house Dennis to go out there and fix it.
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: If not, I'm sure he got good he cover. There's
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: no question that Gary Betman's done an excellent job, and
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: it's encouraging that Ron said that.
• 27:19
  Speaker 2: Obviously he's got enough energy you'll continue to do so.
• 27:22
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: The Detroit Red Wings are fourteen to four and one,
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: so Todd McClellan took over as head coach. If you
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: had a two six game winning streak, Rod, you and
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: I have talked about this plenty of times, right about
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: the job that Tod McClellan. As you predicted the Red
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: Wings getting the playoff, you look a little smarter with
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: the hiring of Todd McClellan. What are your talks about
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: the job that Tod mccollan does and what do you
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: see for them in the second half the season.
• 27:46
  Speaker 5: Well, I'm sure they probably didn't want to break. You
• 27:50
  Speaker 5: looked over at Montreal.
• 27:51
  Speaker 6: The Habs I think lost seven of eight that they're
• 27:53
  Speaker 6: limping into this two week break. They marked on Say Luiz,
• 27:57
  Speaker 6: their coach was excited to have them breaks, so they
• 27:58
  Speaker 6: needed it to destroyed hottest team of the NHL. Since
• 28:02
  Speaker 6: that firing of Derek Lallan, I can't explain it, George
• 28:05
  Speaker 6: asked me, what's changed, DM, Me, I don't know. Clearly,
• 28:09
  Speaker 6: Derek Lallan just wasn't getting it done. There's he seems
• 28:13
  Speaker 6: like a good guy and a good coach, But the
• 28:16
  Speaker 6: NHL turns over coaches more than any of the major leagues, right,
• 28:20
  Speaker 6: And I hope for their sake they continue this hot run.
• 28:25
  Speaker 6: The talents there. Stevie Wise said it, George, I think
• 28:28
  Speaker 6: you would agree. I predicted they would make the playoffs
• 28:31
  Speaker 6: in Tampa would miss so I hope I'm right.
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: I think a lot of people on this panel, right,
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: I'm in the red wing shirt. I know you got
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: color blind thinking it was Canada. But so the logo
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: wasn't big enough as it would have been on your show.
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: And the two of us are side by side and
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: you can actually see it's a wing wheel, not a
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: maple leaf flag. But colors are right, and of course
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: you forgot the blue earlier. No bigtail, Rod. I don't
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: hold that against you because you at least you went
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: on national broadcast wearing glas so at least maybe they're
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: Although my eyesight's far worse than yours. I've had catting surgery,
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: then doing a liquid good and now I'm still wearing
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: strong glasses. Go figure, all right, Mark, what you're talks
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: about the job Tom mccloughan's done.
• 29:11
  Speaker 7: I just think that, like Rod said, it changes coaches
• 29:15
  Speaker 7: so often, and you're on a shirt leash if you
• 29:19
  Speaker 7: don't produce, and they keep trying until they find the
• 29:22
  Speaker 7: right guy to fit the right system and with the
• 29:24
  Speaker 7: right players that they have, And that's what that's what
• 29:28
  Speaker 7: the Wings have stumbled across a guy that they can
• 29:30
  Speaker 7: play his system based on the personnel and what their
• 29:35
  Speaker 7: skill level is. And when you have that kind of
• 29:38
  Speaker 7: thing going on, you really take your team to a
• 29:41
  Speaker 7: whole different level. He's probably not doing anything different now
• 29:45
  Speaker 7: than what somebody else did, but they're responding to his
• 29:47
  Speaker 7: style of coaching and the style that he's playing.
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: George, Well here the right guy. Well, you know you're
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: going to talk a lot more on this than anybody,
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: but go ahead.
• 29:56
  Speaker 3: Yeah, well, yeah, no, I appreciate this.
• 30:00
  Speaker 4: Uh you know, Rod and and and Mark, you all
• 30:03
  Speaker 4: you both made very good points. Yeah, the whole attitude
• 30:07
  Speaker 4: the clubhouse. There was a shift in the and how
• 30:09
  Speaker 4: this team was doing things, how this team was practicing,
• 30:13
  Speaker 4: how this team was listening to their coaches. I think
• 30:17
  Speaker 4: when Derek was here, I think they were tuning out.
• 30:20
  Speaker 4: The last especially the last month or two, they were
• 30:23
  Speaker 4: really tuning out. And that is never good. That's never good.
• 30:27
  Speaker 4: And Eisaman had to make the change. It was overdue.
• 30:31
  Speaker 4: And you know, it's like, you know, Todd was here, Okay,
• 30:35
  Speaker 4: Todd was with the Red Wings when Mike Babcock was
• 30:38
  Speaker 4: head coach. He was here for a few seasons, so
• 30:42
  Speaker 4: he wasn't very far away. Okay, So even though you know,
• 30:45
  Speaker 4: you say he he came in brand new, I mean
• 30:48
  Speaker 4: he still had his he still had his memories of
• 30:51
  Speaker 4: the Red Wings, of course, playing downtown in the old
• 30:54
  Speaker 4: Joe Louis arena. But Todd has always been well respected
• 30:58
  Speaker 4: I believe by the Red Wings front and that goes
• 31:00
  Speaker 4: with Jimmy Devlano too and iSER Man. So you know,
• 31:05
  Speaker 4: there's a lot to be said for players. But I'll
• 31:07
  Speaker 4: tell you what, I don't think they were dogging yet.
• 31:10
  Speaker 4: And some people like to say all the Red Wings
• 31:12
  Speaker 4: are dogging it. No, it was just that they couldn't
• 31:14
  Speaker 4: relate to that style of coaching. I don't know why
• 31:16
  Speaker 4: they won forty one games last year, they just missed
• 31:19
  Speaker 4: on the final game making the playoffs. So it's been
• 31:23
  Speaker 4: an incredible turnaround and let's hope that it continues for
• 31:27
  Speaker 4: Redwicks fans.
• 31:28
  Speaker 2: Okay, Candy, So.
• 31:34
  Speaker 9: What I'm gonna say is through Scott, I have watched
• 31:40
  Speaker 9: quite a bit of.
• 31:41
  Speaker 8: Red Wing games, and I would say the intensity that
• 31:46
  Speaker 8: I see the guys playing with, more prepared, more into
• 31:52
  Speaker 8: the games for the whole game, not just you know,
• 31:55
  Speaker 8: one period or a little bit here has been a
• 31:58
  Speaker 8: big difference that I've seen since the new coach. So
• 32:02
  Speaker 8: kudos to them, because let's face it, I remember early on,
• 32:06
  Speaker 8: I remember Scott telling me how they've had such a
• 32:10
  Speaker 8: long history of making the playoffs, and now there's been
• 32:13
  Speaker 8: this decline and they haven't made it. And when you're
• 32:17
  Speaker 8: an original sixteen, it's kind of you're expected like so,
• 32:22
  Speaker 8: you know, to bring their fans, not that their fans
• 32:25
  Speaker 8: ever left because red wing fans don't, but to bring
• 32:29
  Speaker 8: their all their fans. I think it's just the level
• 32:34
  Speaker 8: of excitement has has increased with this new coach.
• 32:39
  Speaker 2: Well, Tom McClellan was the voice they needed. See Eisaman
• 32:42
  Speaker 2: was shrewd to that.
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: He brought him in a week later so he could
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: study what he has and all of a sudden, you see,
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: what's happened was getting into.
• 32:48
  Speaker 2: More power to them, And I'm sure.
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: A lot of people on this panel at least are
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: pulling for the revenues to do well. We have to
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: find a way to make Peterson look like a genius
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: on this show, and that would be a good way
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: towards doing exactly that. Yeah, well, I know, let me
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: tell you, I understand the challenges with a lot of
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: things in this industry that aren't easy, but you have
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: to deal with all the things that you get hit
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: your way. And that's all. We'll leave it that for
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: a moment. But we are well we'll get hit our
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: way as a station break. Go ahead, Candy, we're.

• 34:43
  Speaker 1: Take her, Miss Candy. Another thing I want to get
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: to a recent piece of Mike Lane legendary Pittsburgh when
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: Casser died at the age of seventy six person piece, Like,
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: I know we have some Pittsford panelists on the show. Well,
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: I know have Ralph Williams mentioned it earlier, But what
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: are your thoughts about Mike Lane.
• 35:02
  Speaker 4: Well, I talked to ten Kal, the voice of the
• 35:06
  Speaker 4: Red Wings, earlier today and he said, this is a
• 35:09
  Speaker 4: really big loss. Ken of course calls the Red Wing
• 35:12
  Speaker 4: games on radio. And Mike Lang is an icon you know.
• 35:16
  Speaker 4: You talk about Bob Prince, you talk about these announcers
• 35:19
  Speaker 4: in baseball that we've seen. But I'll tell you what
• 35:21
  Speaker 4: Mike Lang and all his uh what do you call
• 35:24
  Speaker 4: his uh iconic for? You know, Yeah, yeah, he's just
• 35:30
  Speaker 4: a great guy. I know, Yeah, I think he's gonna
• 35:33
  Speaker 4: be a big loss for the Penguins.
• 35:35
  Speaker 2: What about you, Barbara.
• 35:38
  Speaker 7: Mike Lang was an awesome guy.
• 35:40
  Speaker 10: Uh.
• 35:41
  Speaker 7: I met him several times, had some drinks with him.
• 35:44
  Speaker 7: He loved jazz and he was just another guy like
• 35:47
  Speaker 7: you and I.
• 35:49
  Speaker 2: Uh.
• 35:50
  Speaker 7: He told great stories like he had. He had no
• 35:53
  Speaker 7: holding back when you met him, never bashed anybody. But
• 35:57
  Speaker 7: he was just a wonderful person. And you're right, George.
• 36:00
  Speaker 7: He was the Pittsburgh Penguins. He had been there since
• 36:03
  Speaker 7: nineteen seventy four. So when I think of Pittsburgh growing up,
• 36:07
  Speaker 7: I think a Myron Coach. I think of Bob Prince,
• 36:10
  Speaker 7: but I was really young for Bob Prince, and then
• 36:14
  Speaker 7: I think of Mike Lang. And you know, it's a
• 36:19
  Speaker 7: loss for the organization too, it really is. Sid was
• 36:23
  Speaker 7: close with them, So that's going to be that's going
• 36:25
  Speaker 7: to be interesting to see the way that, you know,
• 36:27
  Speaker 7: like that whole transpires after this Four Nations think when
• 36:32
  Speaker 7: they have their service and everything.
• 36:33
  Speaker 6: For him, ID some thoughts, we're losing a lot of
• 36:38
  Speaker 6: these guys that they say, they don't make them like
• 36:41
  Speaker 6: that anymore, you know. And he came on my radar
• 36:45
  Speaker 6: in the eighties. There was a documentary on the Edvonton
• 36:47
  Speaker 6: Oilers called boys on the bus and they it was
• 36:50
  Speaker 6: when the Owners were playing Pittsburgh back in the day
• 36:54
  Speaker 6: regular season games. That's where I as a kid in Saskatchewan, Canada,
• 36:57
  Speaker 6: I like, oh my god, is this guy ever good?
• 37:00
  Speaker 6: They scratch my back with a hacksaw. Buy Sam and
• 37:04
  Speaker 6: drink and get his dog. One two, get in the
• 37:07
  Speaker 6: fast lane, granny, the bingo games ready to roll. And
• 37:10
  Speaker 6: the one that I think he was forced to retire
• 37:13
  Speaker 6: was he beat him like a rented mule. That one
• 37:16
  Speaker 6: would not fly today, and I would be I would
• 37:19
  Speaker 6: advocate that that one be canceled. And then of course
• 37:22
  Speaker 6: when the Penguins won their first Stanley Cup in nineteen
• 37:24
  Speaker 6: ninety one, Lord Stanley, Lord Stanley, bring me the brandy.
• 37:28
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, they aren't.
• 37:32
  Speaker 5: Like he was one of a kind. Then there will
• 37:35
  Speaker 5: never be another.
• 37:36
  Speaker 6: And for whatever reason, I don't know why, but there
• 37:40
  Speaker 6: isn't one announcer in the NHL.
• 37:42
  Speaker 5: And I can't think of any league that does.
• 37:44
  Speaker 6: What Mike Lang did, Like he was the first broadcaster
• 37:47
  Speaker 6: to have those zany sayings. He kind of I mean,
• 37:49
  Speaker 6: I called thousands of hockey and football games and we
• 37:53
  Speaker 6: all were trying to find that catch phrase. That memorable thing.
• 37:57
  Speaker 6: Mike was the first guy to do that. Yeah, that
• 38:00
  Speaker 6: I can think of in hockey. You know, if you
• 38:03
  Speaker 6: can think of some, throw them up, but I can't.
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: You know what, I gotta transition to Candy. Obviously, you
• 38:09
  Speaker 1: have the Milwaukee Admirals there. I won't really ask you
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: to come on an individual that you don't know about,
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: but I'm going to give you your opening to talk
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: about Bob Aker, because if anybody knows about a hometown broadcaster,
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: you definitely do Candy.
• 38:21
  Speaker 8: I was gonna say, my the way I would relate
• 38:24
  Speaker 8: it to is is Milwaukee losing Bob Buker, who has
• 38:28
  Speaker 8: been calling Brewer games for forever.
• 38:31
  Speaker 7: Uh.
• 38:33
  Speaker 8: I was glad to see the way that they're honoring
• 38:35
  Speaker 8: him this year. If you catch any of the spring
• 38:37
  Speaker 8: training games, his signature is ingrained in the field and
• 38:42
  Speaker 8: then on the patches they're gonna He's all of the
• 38:46
  Speaker 8: Brewers are going to be wearing patches for the whole
• 38:48
  Speaker 8: season that have Bob Buker on them.
• 38:50
  Speaker 9: So he was iconic.
• 38:53
  Speaker 8: He had his phrases too, just like you know Mike
• 38:57
  Speaker 8: Langdon for hockey, I'm sure, but it's sad to see
• 39:02
  Speaker 8: some of these icon icons.
• 39:06
  Speaker 9: Unfortunately they're passing.
• 39:07
  Speaker 8: I mean, we're all getting older, but you don't see
• 39:11
  Speaker 8: longevity in the field like you used to.
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: So all I'll say about the topic is this, I
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: don't know Michael much about Mike Ling and really never
• 39:20
  Speaker 1: followed the Penguins at all, but I can make this reference.
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: Bernie Harwell was an uncle to me. George knows how
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: close to Bernie and I were, can call as a
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: great friend of mine. And Bruce Marton was a guy
• 39:32
  Speaker 1: I idolized because if I ever wanted to call hockey,
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: Bruce Martin was a guy that I will pattern myself around.
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: That never came to fruition. But rest in Peace aunt
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: Tina Kaplan because I used to call a lot of
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: Red Wing games over in her home in Detroit, and
• 39:46
  Speaker 1: it was unbelievable how I gravitated to the Detroit red
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: Wings and Bruce Martin was my guy. And I actually
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: had a testa me to met to Joe Louis Marina.
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: So I ampathize with all you Pittsford people. I really
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: totally do. Rest in Peace lost a good person there,
• 39:59
  Speaker 1: But everybody in every market, without a doubt, we'll be
• 40:02
  Speaker 1: able to relate to what you're dealing with here. So
• 40:06
  Speaker 1: as we wrap up to our final topic, but this
• 40:08
  Speaker 1: is a very loaded one, We're gonna go back to
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: the Rod Peterson Show. On Valentine's Day, one of the
• 40:14
  Speaker 1: bigger topics that we talked about was Aaron Rodgers to
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: the Pittsburgh Steelers. Rod and I had a lot of
• 40:20
  Speaker 1: fun with this one. Denick Roddy, he tried every way
• 40:25
  Speaker 1: on the planet. I swear to give me a reason
• 40:28
  Speaker 1: why I think Rogers would be a good fit. And
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: like any season broadcaster like this guy is better out
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: for a while, not a long of me. Okay, So
• 40:36
  Speaker 1: he admitted on seventy two sixty two, I'm not good
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: at that ten years mister Peters said, don't forget it.
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: They're a lot of remind you that we are on
• 40:44
  Speaker 1: the Sports and Change, not the Rod Peterson Show.
• 40:46
  Speaker 2: Good stuff can I.
• 40:47
  Speaker 1: Reminded that a lot of that show good stuff off
• 40:49
  Speaker 1: the Rod unbelievable. I still believe though, that Aaron Rodgers
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: should go to Pittsford, and they mentioned that on First
• 40:55
  Speaker 1: Take Today. Have different opinions on that one thing. I
• 40:59
  Speaker 1: should mention though. On February fourteenth, we're not even talk
• 41:03
  Speaker 1: about Aaron Rodgers. I just want to make reference to
• 41:04
  Speaker 1: the show that that was one of my good memories
• 41:07
  Speaker 1: on that particular shows on that day though February fourteen.
• 41:12
  Speaker 1: He also had a tragedy in twenty eighteen with the
• 41:17
  Speaker 1: tragedy in Parkland, Florida for Marjorie Stone and Douglas. He
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: had seventeen people that were killed in seventeen that were injured.
• 41:26
  Speaker 1: Candy and I went out there and attended a funeral
• 41:29
  Speaker 1: of Aaron Fie the coach, and it was a depressing.
• 41:33
  Speaker 2: Situation if I ever saw one. It was awful.
• 41:36
  Speaker 1: I was singing at KFC and when all the first
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: responders went by, it was just unbelievable. And I didn't
• 41:43
  Speaker 1: mention that t Roger because obviously I wasn't I didn't
• 41:46
  Speaker 1: know that the show was at that time not in
• 41:49
  Speaker 1: Cana until you mentioned it. And we had too many
• 41:51
  Speaker 1: other important topics that we definitely wanted to get to,
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: and that was an important thing. But I want to
• 41:56
  Speaker 1: make sure that I always pay my respects to those
• 41:58
  Speaker 1: people that died March Stone in Douglas because that was
• 42:02
  Speaker 1: the largest mass shooting ever in American high school history.
• 42:07
  Speaker 2: So rest in peace and Incidentally, you know a story.
• 42:11
  Speaker 2: Can you believe this?
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: I found this out today that the KFC headquarters that
• 42:16
  Speaker 1: were in Louisville, Kentucky are going to be moved to Plano, Texas,
• 42:20
  Speaker 1: the home of Young Brands.
• 42:22
  Speaker 2: So the KFC corporate headquarters are going to be in Plano.
• 42:27
  Speaker 2: Got this?
• 42:27
  Speaker 1: And that's by the way, Pizza Hut is located in
• 42:31
  Speaker 1: What do we have for dinner tonight?
• 42:33
  Speaker 2: Candy? They had pizza? Unbelievable?
• 42:36
  Speaker 3: All right?
• 42:37
  Speaker 1: Well, Rod, Unfortunately, I said, there's a lot of good things,
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: and there's a lot of bad things, and there's some
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: ugly things. But I do want to answer one thing
• 42:44
  Speaker 1: that Rod wondered about what my job description was here
• 42:47
  Speaker 1: at the South Florida Tribute. So in order to make
• 42:49
  Speaker 1: sure that we set the record straight that mister Peterson
• 42:52
  Speaker 1: knows about this here so that he never ever forgets
• 42:55
  Speaker 1: this again, because I'm going to make sure if when
• 42:58
  Speaker 1: and if the time ever it comes up again, I
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: want to let them know that I brought in the
• 43:03
  Speaker 1: media distribution partners. Okay, Rod, And this is something that
• 43:06
  Speaker 1: you should definitely make sure that we that you we
• 43:09
  Speaker 1: tattoo because I think tattoos are the big things on
• 43:12
  Speaker 1: your arm.
• 43:13
  Speaker 2: You probably have a big enough army you can do that.
• 43:15
  Speaker 3: Dad.
• 43:15
  Speaker 2: He brought in Media Distribution Partners of the South Florida TRIVI.
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: Make sure you know, mister Peterson he built the Broadcasting
• 43:21
  Speaker 1: Network from scratch all twelve nine ten, twelve, So they're growing.
• 43:25
  Speaker 1: I can't keep care from my math sucked. I know
• 43:27
  Speaker 1: one thing about my math is Canada want to nothing
• 43:30
  Speaker 1: over the United States. We have nine to twenty four
• 43:32
  Speaker 1: left in the first period. Okay, but all right, so
• 43:35
  Speaker 1: recap brought in Media Distribution Partners, built the Broadcasting Network.
• 43:39
  Speaker 1: I'm a writer, Rod, Okay, just so you know, I do, right,
• 43:42
  Speaker 1: I do have that you know stuff you know, and
• 43:46
  Speaker 1: I handle social media and guess what, Rod, I'll hire
• 43:49
  Speaker 1: and fire people.
• 43:50
  Speaker 2: My goodness, I sure of got I have to get
• 43:52
  Speaker 2: rid of it.
• 43:52
  Speaker 1: I've gotten rid of all kinds of people in my
• 43:54
  Speaker 1: day on this thing, and I don't hesitate to get
• 43:56
  Speaker 1: rid of anybody who thinks they're about the platform marked
• 43:58
  Speaker 1: by word.
• 43:59
  Speaker 2: I do that. That's the job. And I'm an author
• 44:01
  Speaker 2: and I'm gonna be a second one probably at the
• 44:03
  Speaker 2: end of the year. So job Rod.
• 44:05
  Speaker 1: If you ever wonder who what my role is those
• 44:08
  Speaker 1: are the checklists you can I think the one thing
• 44:10
  Speaker 1: we have is a grocery store. I don't know which one.
• 44:12
  Speaker 2: Do you shop at, Rod? Do you go ahead shop
• 44:15
  Speaker 2: at Public's or what's on new job?
• 44:18
  Speaker 3: Oh?
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you got a public woman, So here's your grocery
• 44:21
  Speaker 1: lists of the South Florida Tribune. Okay, about what my
• 44:23
  Speaker 1: job description is. And you know what's so fun about
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: that cotton picknion show is I did two super Bowl
• 44:29
  Speaker 1: reports reave this this week. Awesome stuff, man, You got
• 44:32

  Speaker 2: My goodness.
• 44:38
  Speaker 1: Okay, you're right, Okay, Rod, we are the most viewed
• 44:41
  Speaker 1: show on Twitter, but we have a little bit of
• 44:43
  Speaker 1: work to do on Instagram, Facebook and on YouTube. There's
• 44:46
  Speaker 1: work in progress. We never I don't believe that that complacency,
• 44:50
  Speaker 1: Rod is really what we have to do. But the
• 44:52
  Speaker 1: one thing I can tell you Rod that it's in
• 44:55
  Speaker 1: my book. Okay, and we're gonna get to that. But
• 44:57
  Speaker 1: there's one major mistake that you made on that show, Rod.
• 45:01
  Speaker 1: Play of the tape Candy.
• 45:04
  Speaker 10: By the way, the MotorCity Mad Mouse Scott Morgan Roth
• 45:07
  Speaker 10: with us Scott and I both have big personalities. We collide.
• 45:13
  Speaker 10: But the thing is we make beautiful music together. That's
• 45:17
  Speaker 10: why people are loving this show.
• 45:20
  Speaker 5: They love it.
• 45:21
  Speaker 10: The most viewed show, Scott, you told me this morning
• 45:24
  Speaker 10: on the South Florida Tribute Broadcasting Network is the ones
• 45:26
  Speaker 10: that you and I do together.
• 45:27
  Speaker 3: So let's be honest about it.
• 45:29
  Speaker 10: People love us together, although sometimes I want to wring
• 45:31
  Speaker 10: his neck. By the way, Ryan and Hudson's Bassis Gatchwan
• 45:35
  Speaker 10: writes in he says, I love the big wheel on
• 45:37
  Speaker 10: the mad Mouth shirt. Love me some Red Wings life
• 45:42
  Speaker 10: long fan.
• 45:43
  Speaker 5: Here he has some Red Wings questions for you.
• 45:46
  Speaker 10: But we're trying to keep it to football Friday, and
• 45:48
  Speaker 10: I see everybody is lighting up the Game Plus TV
• 45:51
  Speaker 10: social media channels, ringing their phone off the hook that
• 45:53
  Speaker 10: we're not on the television in Canada today US only
• 45:57
  Speaker 10: on Game Plus TV Today. Renny from the game Play
• 46:00
  Speaker 10: Control Room rights on it says, we still have Spanish
• 46:03
  Speaker 10: League Basketball Today Live at twelve thirty and three thirty.
• 46:06
  Speaker 10: You are back on Game Plus Canada on Tuesday, unless
• 46:10
  Speaker 10: you have a show Monday, which we don't because it's
• 46:13
  Speaker 10: President's Day. And don't bring me back to Donald Trump
• 46:16
  Speaker 10: again President's Day in the US and Family Day in Canada. No,
• 46:20
  Speaker 10: there will be no show on Monday. Listen, I could
• 46:22
  Speaker 10: ask you the Red Wings question, but I want to.
• 46:24
  Speaker 10: I told you I would ask you about baseball, Scott,
• 46:27
  Speaker 10: So let me just back this up a little bit.
• 46:29
  Speaker 10: Everybody's excited here, as you can tell. You live here
• 46:31
  Speaker 10: with me, not take other folks, but in the same area.
• 46:34
  Speaker 10: Vladimir Guerrero Junior's negotiating window on a long term contract
• 46:38
  Speaker 10: extension with the Blue Jays is closing as Toronto opens
• 46:41
  Speaker 10: its spring training in daneed and Florida. General manager Ross
• 46:44
  Speaker 10: Atkins said at the start of today's camp that quote
• 46:46
  Speaker 10: desire is strong to keep Vladdie in Toronto, but the
• 46:49
  Speaker 10: star first baseman who can become a free agent after
• 46:52
  Speaker 10: the season, has said he will negotiate until Tuesday before
• 46:55
  Speaker 10: focusing on baseball for the season. Tell our viewers, I
• 47:00
  Speaker 10: guess we're not on in Canada, but on YouTube we are.
• 47:03
  Speaker 10: The Blue Jays are relevant in Canada, and that's about it.
• 47:07
  Speaker 10: Why would they be relevant? Every major US market has
• 47:10
  Speaker 10: their own team. Where's your baseball bookus right now? Scott
• 47:13
  Speaker 10: Marlin's Taggers or somewhere else. Well, Ron, I really think
• 47:18
  Speaker 10: you're the nicest guy on the planet. Because you say
• 47:21
  Speaker 10: sometimes you'd like to ring my neck, I can say
• 47:23
  Speaker 10: right now, all the time, I'd like to ring your neck.
• 47:25
  Speaker 2: So don't feel too bad, all right.
• 47:29
  Speaker 1: Rob, Let me explain something to you, my friend, Okay,
• 47:31
  Speaker 1: because I hope that we're friends after this broadcast. There's
• 47:34
  Speaker 1: certain things that you do on the air, okay, phrases
• 47:37
  Speaker 1: like ringing a person's next Really, what it does to
• 47:40
  Speaker 1: provoke violence on the air, Rod, it does is what
• 47:43
  Speaker 1: it does.
• 47:43
  Speaker 5: Get a sense of humor. You got to get a
• 47:45
  Speaker 5: sense of humor. Scott.
• 47:45
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well, let me finish right, okay, because they're remind
• 47:48
  Speaker 1: you you're on the Sports of Change, not the Rock
• 47:50
  Speaker 1: Peters Show. I'm calling the shots, so please take what
• 47:53
  Speaker 1: I have to say to heart, Okay. Sense of Humor's
• 47:55
  Speaker 1: one thing. I have a sense of perspective. I've been
• 47:58
  Speaker 1: in this business a long time. I wrote a book
• 48:00
  Speaker 1: on it, and I'm writing in second one. I don't
• 48:02
  Speaker 1: find that funny, Rod, I really don't. In fact, you
• 48:05
  Speaker 1: know what, Rod, I find it in my mind. I'm
• 48:07
  Speaker 1: telling you to your face in front of a few people.
• 48:09
  Speaker 1: I find it disrespectful. Keep in mind, okay, I'm giving
• 48:12
  Speaker 1: you my point of view on this network. I find
• 48:15
  Speaker 1: it disrespectful. I find it disrespectful in the ways the
• 48:18
  Speaker 1: number one I brought you on here. I want to
• 48:20
  Speaker 1: make sure that you had an opportunity to be able
• 48:22
  Speaker 1: to bring you on, give you a fresh start and
• 48:25
  Speaker 1: build your brand here, and wanted to do it as
• 48:27
  Speaker 1: a partnership with you. But that's the one comment that
• 48:29
  Speaker 1: I don't appreciate. I find it's you don't do it
• 48:32
  Speaker 1: on a live broadcast rod. And I mentioned a lot
• 48:35
  Speaker 1: of those things in my book that you haven't finished yet.
• 48:38
  Speaker 1: Let me point out some things in my book that
• 48:41
  Speaker 1: you haven't finished yet, and I'll let George of the
• 48:44
  Speaker 1: rest of the crew comment, and I'll camp pass. Once
• 48:47
  Speaker 1: upon a Times made a comment to Ted Copple about racism,
• 48:51
  Speaker 1: and he was gone from the Dodgers in forty one years.
• 48:54
  Speaker 1: After forty one years, that stinks. One trip up on
• 48:57
  Speaker 1: the air rod he had done. If that wasn't good enough,
• 49:00
  Speaker 1: let's go back to Li Trell's freewill Who Wrung Who?
• 49:03
  Speaker 1: By the way, I love your think reading neck did
• 49:05
  Speaker 1: the same thing.
• 49:06
  Speaker 2: The TJ.
• 49:07
  Speaker 1: Carlissimo of the San Antonio's perth. Li Trell's Prewell had
• 49:11
  Speaker 1: banished in the league and PJ Carlissimo. Rod ended up
• 49:15
  Speaker 1: doing fine as an assistant coach with Greg Popovich, and
• 49:18
  Speaker 1: he went out there and did well after that. It
• 49:21
  Speaker 1: was a quick sensational broadcaster. And I'm going to tell
• 49:24
  Speaker 1: you one thing. When Pearl Harbor laid the initial attack
• 49:27
  Speaker 1: on the United States with the United States do and
• 49:30
  Speaker 1: get them, later on they hit them with the atomic bomb.
• 49:33
  Speaker 1: The bottom line is, Rod, I'll tell you the thing
• 49:36
  Speaker 1: that's very important to me and people have when they'reund
• 49:39
  Speaker 1: a live broadcast to understand that you have to think
• 49:42
  Speaker 1: before you speak, and you have to understand that words
• 49:45
  Speaker 1: are a powerful message. And that particular sequence. I've done
• 49:48
  Speaker 1: a lot of good job things here to promote everything
• 49:51
  Speaker 1: good about your show. I enjoyed being on it. I
• 49:53
  Speaker 1: want emphasize I came on as a substitute on short notice.
• 49:57
  Speaker 1: I didn't have to go on that day. I'm e sawted.
• 50:00
  Speaker 1: I said, I did a lot of work in the
• 50:01
  Speaker 1: Super Bowl, and I was glad to do it for
• 50:03
  Speaker 1: a friend. I do anything for a friend. But Rod,
• 50:06
  Speaker 1: I will tell you right now, on any show I
• 50:08
  Speaker 1: ever come on, you will never ever disrespect me again,
• 50:12
  Speaker 1: period understood. I just want to make sure you understand
• 50:16
  Speaker 1: We've done a lot of good things together, but that
• 50:18
  Speaker 1: was the one moment that I am absolutely furious about
• 50:21
  Speaker 1: with you. They're not going to tell you another thing, Rod,
• 50:24
  Speaker 1: going forward, if you ever want to appear on the
• 50:26
  Speaker 1: Sports Exchange again ever that my advice to you is
• 50:29
  Speaker 1: finish the book Lancense from the microphone, because there's a
• 50:32
  Speaker 1: lot of things you can learn from it that would
• 50:34
  Speaker 1: enable you to subsequent making these types of mistakes. I
• 50:38
  Speaker 1: go into the details about a lot of people that
• 50:41
  Speaker 1: made self destructed. I don't want to see you ever
• 50:44
  Speaker 1: run into a situation where you're gonna be I wish
• 50:47
  Speaker 1: you had you did something that you wish you would
• 50:50
  Speaker 1: have had done.
• 50:51
  Speaker 2: Look at this as a hard time teaching moment.
• 50:54
  Speaker 7: Rod.
• 50:54
  Speaker 1: Remember I've been to the business longer than you. I
• 50:57
  Speaker 1: haven't done the play by play thing with you, Rod,
• 50:59
  Speaker 1: but I've on a lot of one on one interviews.
• 51:01
  Speaker 1: I've covered a lot of big events, Rod, five Super Bowls,
• 51:05
  Speaker 1: you follow me, NBA A NTL Finals, Roll X twenty four.
• 51:09
  Speaker 1: It's all in there, Rod for you to read from
• 51:12
  Speaker 1: page one, all the way to the Horde with George
• 51:15
  Speaker 1: Iichord the page two hundred and eight, and that's all
• 51:18
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna say. Rod, I'm really you know what, this
• 51:20
  Speaker 1: is a low moment and my relationship with you, that
• 51:22
  Speaker 1: you disrespected me on a live broadcast, whether there was
• 51:26
  Speaker 1: any intentions or not. Before you say anything, George Iicord,
• 51:30
  Speaker 1: give me your interpretation of what you got from the tape.
• 51:34
  Speaker 4: Well, I think what I got from the tape is simple.
• 51:36
  Speaker 4: There's two things that stood out to me. The one
• 51:38
  Speaker 4: is the ringing of the neck. This young man, Scott
• 51:41
  Speaker 4: has been through so much as we know him and
• 51:44
  Speaker 4: his wife, and he has been through, lack of a
• 51:47
  Speaker 4: better term, a lot more than any of us ever
• 51:50
  Speaker 4: would want to so health wise, He's a trooper. He's
• 51:54
  Speaker 4: hanging in there, and I know they're trying to get
• 51:56
  Speaker 4: They're trying to get Scott, you know, over some of
• 51:59
  Speaker 4: these hurt.
• 52:00
  Speaker 3: Number two to insinuate that Scott, what do you do
• 52:03
  Speaker 3: all week? Scott? What do you do?
• 52:06
  Speaker 4: That was uncalled for, Rod. I mean, Scott bust has
• 52:09
  Speaker 4: asked candy busters everybody on this platform buster, you know what?
• 52:13
  Speaker 4: So that was totally uncalled for. Whether you call it
• 52:17
  Speaker 4: a joke or not.
• 52:18
  Speaker 3: No, uh huh.
• 52:20
  Speaker 1: And Robert Ordelle, let me point something out to you,
• 52:22
  Speaker 1: and I want this comment in fairness to Rod Okay,
• 52:26
  Speaker 1: because it is something that we acknowledge all sides of
• 52:28
  Speaker 1: all honestly, from a podcast listener, this is a backstage discussion.
• 52:34
  Speaker 1: This sounds like a five year old being schooled, you
• 52:36
  Speaker 1: know what. To some extent, you're right, But the other
• 52:38
  Speaker 1: extent is this, Robert Okay, I had to deal with
• 52:41
  Speaker 1: this on a live broadcast with Rod. That's why it's
• 52:44
  Speaker 1: being That's why it's on this live broadcast, and that's
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: why it's being addressed in public the way he went
• 52:50
  Speaker 1: out there and disrespected me on his live air. The Robert,
• 52:53
  Speaker 1: I see your point. I totally understand it, and I
• 52:55
  Speaker 1: completely get it, and I appreciate you timing in. We
• 52:59
  Speaker 1: believe in being very fair and respectful to all parties involved,
• 53:03
  Speaker 1: and this is the kind of thing that we definitely
• 53:04
  Speaker 1: have to do. I don't like having these conversations on
• 53:07
  Speaker 1: a forum like this. I hate it that bothers the
• 53:10
  Speaker 1: heck out of me, especially with a guy who's a
• 53:12
  Speaker 1: seasoned pro that should know better to make sure that
• 53:15
  Speaker 1: you anything that you say is live. You have an
• 53:17
  Speaker 1: open mic. Words can bite you, especially if you don't
• 53:21
  Speaker 1: use them. Again, I preface what I said. I hope
• 53:24
  Speaker 1: Rod Peterson is a bigger man and learn from this
• 53:28
  Speaker 1: and finally finish.
• 53:29
  Speaker 2: The job of reading my book.
• 53:31
  Speaker 9: And I love what you do. Rod.
• 53:32
  Speaker 1: You cover FAU softball, you go across to cover, you
• 53:37
  Speaker 1: cover for Florida Gulf Coast University, University. That's good stuff.
• 53:41
  Speaker 1: At least you're getting around, you're learning the Florida's fourteenth.
• 53:44
  Speaker 1: I commend you for that. I'm a firm believer in
• 53:46
  Speaker 1: positive reinforcement.
• 53:47
  Speaker 2: I do, of course.
• 53:48
  Speaker 1: By the way, did you know Rod that the Miami
• 53:51
  Speaker 1: Hurricanes lost with the FAU Als the other day? And
• 53:53
  Speaker 1: that's a big rivalry. I've covered that time rivalry so unbelievable.
• 53:57
  Speaker 1: So Robert, thank you very much. Mark your take.
• 54:04
  Speaker 7: I don't really have much to say. I think you
• 54:06
  Speaker 7: kind of said it all. I understood, I understood where
• 54:09
  Speaker 7: you're coming from. I understood that he thought he was
• 54:13
  Speaker 7: joking around. I mean, from that perspective, you guys got
• 54:18
  Speaker 7: to hammer that out between the two of you. I
• 54:20
  Speaker 7: do think there's some things you can't say when you're
• 54:24
  Speaker 7: doing a podcast, and you know, you guys know each
• 54:28
  Speaker 7: other better than I know you, so I don't know
• 54:30
  Speaker 7: where you're you know, and I told you that. I mean,
• 54:33
  Speaker 7: I really don't feel like my take on it all,
• 54:36
  Speaker 7: even though I saw it, listen all that stuff, I
• 54:38
  Speaker 7: really don't feel like my take is fair.
• 54:42
  Speaker 2: That's okay, Mark, I appreciate.
• 54:43
  Speaker 1: The bottom line is I think we're hammering it out
• 54:45
  Speaker 1: in public as the same way that he delivered the
• 54:47
  Speaker 1: first message. You don't promote violence and talk about wringing
• 54:50
  Speaker 1: somebody's neck on a live broadcast ride. There's certain things
• 54:53
  Speaker 1: you do behind them, behind the scenes because bar in mind,
• 54:56
  Speaker 1: you live in Boca, and cover after you and I'll
• 54:58
  Speaker 1: see you and Boca, but I cover, and we may
• 55:01
  Speaker 1: one of these days go to dinner laugh at this
• 55:03
  Speaker 1: whole thing and think it was nothing. But I think
• 55:05
  Speaker 1: the thing that that's important is I write my next
• 55:08
  Speaker 1: book for Lessons from the Microphone, as there are certain
• 55:10
  Speaker 1: things that I'm going to mention in that book that
• 55:12
  Speaker 1: you have to mention the good, the bad, and the other,
• 55:15
  Speaker 1: and there are teaching moments. The biggest thing I tell
• 55:17
  Speaker 1: people when I market this book is it's important that
• 55:20
  Speaker 1: you understand that. You know, people make mistakes. They're entitled.
• 55:26
  Speaker 1: They have to be accountable for that, Rod, is what
• 55:28
  Speaker 1: they have to do. And maybe you didn't think it
• 55:30
  Speaker 1: was a big deal then, but all week long I thought,
• 55:32
  Speaker 1: you know what, what would you let me ask you
• 55:34
  Speaker 1: a question? Rod? Hypothetically if I sat there and told you,
• 55:40
  Speaker 1: by collecting by surprise, that I'd like to wring your neck,
• 55:42
  Speaker 1: what would your response be? Do you think you would
• 55:45
  Speaker 1: take it joking? Or do you think you would take
• 55:46
  Speaker 1: it seriously as a violent or some sort of a
• 55:50
  Speaker 1: physical threat.
• 55:52
  Speaker 6: I wouldn't take it seriously at all, but I've got
• 55:56
  Speaker 6: big shoulders, and obviously it should have been kept to
• 56:00
  Speaker 6: a private conversation between the two of us.
• 56:02
  Speaker 5: But the caps out of the bank. I understand it.
• 56:04
  Speaker 6: I sincerely apologize. I'm sorry that you're offended. It obviously
• 56:09
  Speaker 6: wasn't serious. Were the entertainment business, and you know that
• 56:13
  Speaker 6: you tell me you love me, I tell you I
• 56:14
  Speaker 6: love you. We're sincere about it. You know I would
• 56:18
  Speaker 6: never hurt you emotionally nor physically, So I apologize that
• 56:22
  Speaker 6: you had to wait a week to bring it out here.
• 56:25
  Speaker 6: It will never happen again, That's all I have to
• 56:28
  Speaker 6: say on the matter, and I appreciate you all for
• 56:30
  Speaker 6: your input.
• 56:31
  Speaker 1: And you know what, Rod, I appreciate you being a
• 56:34
  Speaker 1: bigger man for being able to own up and give
• 56:36
  Speaker 1: a public apology like you did, because in a lot
• 56:39
  Speaker 1: of ways, I thought, do I really take this guy's
• 56:41
  Speaker 1: more trouble than he's worth and he hasn't attitude issue.
• 56:44
  Speaker 1: I really like your duke down inside, because I really do.
• 56:48
  Speaker 3: Rod.
• 56:48
  Speaker 2: You're like a brother from another mother.
• 56:50
  Speaker 3: You really are.
• 56:51
  Speaker 2: I've never told you.
• 56:52
  Speaker 1: I've never had more fun to go out there and
• 56:55
  Speaker 1: interact with you, because we do make beautiful music together.
• 56:59
  Speaker 1: But this was in so few you know why, because
• 57:01
  Speaker 1: it'd be like me playing a harmonica plays a different
• 57:03
  Speaker 1: kind of music than a beautiful piano. And if you've
• 57:06
  Speaker 1: ever heard me play the harmonica, I'll tell you what
• 57:09
  Speaker 1: you'll need here.
• 57:09
  Speaker 5: I think we covered it. I think we've covered it.
• 57:12
  Speaker 2: It's okay, n.
• 57:14
  Speaker 5: I'd like to go watch the hockey game.
• 57:15
  Speaker 1: I think, well, that's okay, Ron, I think we'll be
• 57:17
  Speaker 1: all right. Candy will contact you another time, But Rod,
• 57:20
  Speaker 1: I want to thank you very much for your apology,
• 57:22
  Speaker 1: and I really look forward to continuing this conversation with
• 57:26
  Speaker 1: you a later date, Katie, you know you feel in
• 57:29
  Speaker 1: his comments are sincere. I think they're pretty good. Back
• 57:32
  Speaker 1: a little with them. I think it's a teaching moment, Rod,
• 57:35
  Speaker 1: So go ahead, and I look forward to continuing this
• 57:38
  Speaker 1: conversation in a private manner. Rod, God blessing you and
• 57:41
