0:21
Speaker 2: was watching the NBA Draft. I have thoughts. You watch
0:24
Speaker 2: drafted all Yeah.
0:25
Speaker 1: First time I've ever watched it ever ever.
0:28
Speaker 2: I liked it. It moves fast. Same. I like that too.
0:31
Speaker 2: It's two minutes and more on. Yeah. I like that.
0:33
Speaker 1: They don't have a whole walk hallway to walk through.
0:36
Speaker 1: They just they're right there.
0:37
Speaker 2: M m. Yeah, you know football.
0:39
Speaker 1: It's like they go through like all these tunnels and
0:41
Speaker 1: take a picture.
0:42
Speaker 2: And I feel bad for Acup who played at Arkansas
0:45
Speaker 2: because he has to go play in Sacramento. It's all that.
0:47
Speaker 2: Not that I don't like Sacramento, but if they's a
0:50
Speaker 2: team I don't want to play for, it's the Kings.
0:52
Speaker 3: They got to be number one on the list, right,
0:54
Speaker 3: so I do have a list.
0:55
Speaker 2: Nice, So I thought about all of that. That's the
0:58
Speaker 2: worst team to go to. It's going to Memphis to play.
1:01
Speaker 1: I was gonna say in Memphis because like they drafted
1:03
Speaker 1: like this little white guy.
1:05
Speaker 2: He's going to Memphis. Oh, you're talking about the city.
1:08
Speaker 2: I'm just talking about the organization.
1:10
Speaker 1: Like I just saw him get drafted and I was like, man,
1:14
Speaker 1: this guy's thinking, like, dang.
1:15
Speaker 2: I don't move to Memphis, Like where do I even?
1:16
Speaker 2: Where do I live?
1:17
Speaker 3: At least there's no state tax, and Sacramento there's a
1:20
Speaker 3: lot of state tax.
1:21
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, So the ten cities that I'd like to
1:25
Speaker 2: play in first, And this isn't just the city, and
1:29
Speaker 2: it's not just the organization. It's a mixture of two. Okay.
1:34
Speaker 2: Number one.
1:36
Speaker 3: Miami, like number one. This is in an order, right,
1:42
Speaker 3: not just top ten things to top ten cities.
1:45
Speaker 2: This is number one in order. Okay, Number one Miami,
1:48
Speaker 2: no state income tax. I'm not a big beach guy,
1:51
Speaker 2: but I just feel like it's warm all the time.
1:54
Speaker 2: I'm an athlete, like I'm playing golf all the time. Yeah,
1:56
Speaker 2: you're young too, Yeah, so no state tax. I'm young
2:01
Speaker 2: and I play golf all the time.
2:02
Speaker 3: Yeah.
2:03
Speaker 1: And those nightclubs, man, like it would just be awesome.
2:05
Speaker 2: Number two Los Angeles Lakers or Clippers. The tax part sucks,
2:11
Speaker 2: but the weather's awesome. The endorsements and you're there where
2:15
Speaker 2: all of the business is happening. It's a year round lifestyle,
2:20
Speaker 2: much like Miami. That's why it's historically the number one
2:24
Speaker 2: free agent destination. Now, I don't love Los Angeles, but
2:27
Speaker 2: it's because of what I've had to do. When I go,
2:29
Speaker 2: I have to go sit in ubers and go job
2:32
Speaker 2: to job talking to produce. If I'm playing in the NBA,
2:34
Speaker 2: I'm getting a house somewhere nice.
2:37
Speaker 3: Yeah, up in the hills.
2:38
Speaker 1: You're an You're so rich instantly and you're a superstar
2:41
Speaker 1: as soon as you get there.
2:43
Speaker 2: Next it's cold, And this really is difficult for me
2:51
Speaker 2: to say because of the cold. But I still if
2:54
Speaker 2: I'm going, I'm going Chicago.
2:56
Speaker 3: Oh A, you're gonna say Boston.
2:58
Speaker 2: It's a massive mark get. I love Chicago. It just
3:02
Speaker 2: gets really cold. The good thing about basketball it's not outside.
3:07
Speaker 2: Like I don't want to play for the Bears because
3:08
Speaker 2: it's too cold. They may build a dome though, in
3:11
Speaker 2: an indoor stadium, the one that their next one. Yeah,
3:14
Speaker 2: but I'm going Chicago at three?
3:17
Speaker 1: What about their their organization? The Bulls kind of suck,
3:23
Speaker 1: Like I forget about the Bulls sometimes.
3:25
Speaker 2: I know, which is crazy. I know next, I'm going Dallas. Wow,
3:31
Speaker 2: two things, no state tax I like living in Texas.
3:35
Speaker 2: Dallas has got everything outside NightLive, warm, yeah, yeah, great facilities.
3:43
Speaker 2: So I'm going Dallas. I'm going New York. It's cold,
3:47
Speaker 2: but it's freaking New York for sure. It's the biggest
3:49
Speaker 2: media market in America. Now, are you going Knicks or Brooklyn?
3:54
Speaker 2: It's probably it's easy to say the Knicks now because
3:59
Speaker 2: they want but they've been so terrible, Like Brooklyn's been
4:02
Speaker 2: a better team over the past twenty years. But now
4:07
Speaker 2: probably the Knicks because they are the New York team.
4:10
Speaker 1: And your home is Madison Square Garden. I guess so
4:13
Speaker 1: is Brooklyn's right?
4:14
Speaker 2: They play there? They play yeah, yeah, yeah. So the
4:18
Speaker 2: thing that sucks about New York though, is the taxes.
4:21
Speaker 2: But New York is like where everything is too that
4:23
Speaker 2: we're Los Angeles. Everything's there. San Francisco, I love San Francisco.
4:31
Speaker 2: Bay area is cool your city, dude. I love the
4:33
Speaker 2: Warriors have won the players. I was looking at one
4:37
Speaker 2: of those polls where they ask everybody where they like
4:39
Speaker 2: to go, and San Francisco was one of the number
4:42
Speaker 2: one away destinations. They like to play there for the
4:47
Speaker 2: amenities to visit. How they're taught. Well, it's like ball playing.
4:50
Speaker 1: It's not just the city, the scooters, the waymos I
4:57
Speaker 1: take Atlanta, Wow, huh warm, a lot of entertainment. I
5:03
Speaker 1: can drive up to see Eddie and Nashville. Yeah, I'm
5:05
Speaker 1: right there, right down the road, right there. This is
5:08
Speaker 1: when you get drafted outcast. Yeah, sure, Tyler Perry, Zach
5:14
Speaker 1: Brown band.
5:17
Speaker 2: And then I have two other Texas cities, Houston and
5:19
Speaker 2: San Antonio.
5:20
Speaker 1: I don't know about Houston, dude, I like Houston.
5:22
Speaker 2: I like Houston, But La traffics as battle worse than Houston.
5:25
Speaker 2: That's true. That's true. So all of those are factoring
5:28
Speaker 2: in cities and organizations.
5:30
Speaker 3: How how are the Celtics not on here?
5:33
Speaker 2: I don't want to live in Boston. It's too cold,
5:35
Speaker 2: just the organization alone, though, it's just too cold. Though
5:39
Speaker 2: it's way too cold. You picked they'd be top fifteen.
5:43
Speaker 2: I don't like Green either. Hey, there's those factored in.
5:47
Speaker 2: I don't think I ever knew, though I wear a
5:49
Speaker 2: lot of green. Yeah, I don't like you. So bottom
5:53
Speaker 2: ten cities to play in? There we go, now we're there.
5:58
Speaker 2: I don't want to go to sacrament No, it's better
6:01
Speaker 2: now and about like the city. I've been up tour
6:03
Speaker 2: in the city. The city is actually pretty great. We've
6:05
Speaker 2: had fun there, but it's like that organization has never won.
6:09
Speaker 2: The only time I've ever remembered them winning is when
6:11
Speaker 2: Bloody Devauk and Chris Webber played and they got cheated
6:13
Speaker 2: against the Lakers. M h like baby, yeah, baby. I
6:16
Speaker 2: love Portland. I don't want to go play in Portland
6:18
Speaker 2: because it's so far away from everything is like that
6:21
Speaker 2: is just me going. I don't want to be trapped
6:25
Speaker 2: on the far left side of the country and everywhere
6:28
Speaker 2: is a trip. I love Portland. I wouldn't mind living
6:31
Speaker 2: in Portland even now, I guess. But if I'm a ballplayer,
6:34
Speaker 2: I got travel all the time. I don't want to
6:35
Speaker 2: let this. Portland's not for me. Yeah, I don't want
6:39
Speaker 2: to be in Milwaukee, and that's a really underrated city.
6:41
Speaker 2: I hate Green. Oh, just the color well. I don't
6:44
Speaker 2: like Green. It's one of the least favorite road cities.
6:49
Speaker 2: When I was reading the articles about where players don't
6:50
Speaker 2: like to go, I liked We shot American Idol in Milwaukee.
6:54
Speaker 2: I found it to be quite nice. It's cold, it's Green.
6:57
Speaker 2: They did win a championship, but they had a once
6:59
Speaker 2: in a lifetime type player. Yeah, but they traditionally aren't
7:03
Speaker 2: that good. But I don't want to go to Milwaukee.
7:05
Speaker 2: I don't want to go to Detroit. I don't want
7:07
Speaker 2: to go to Minneapolis cold cold, Yeah. I don't want
7:11
Speaker 2: to go to Cleveland cold. I like Indianapolis for me.
7:18
Speaker 2: I think if I'm an NBA player, I don't want
7:20
Speaker 2: to go live Indianapolis. It feels like it's in the
7:23
Speaker 2: middle of nowhere. Yep. And I don't want to go
7:26
Speaker 2: live in Oklahoma City. And I like Oklahoma City, dang,
7:28
Speaker 2: but there's nothing to do there. If you're an NBA
7:30
Speaker 2: player who's a multi multi millionaire and you're twenty five
7:33
Speaker 2: years old and you I don't want to live in
7:35
Speaker 2: Oklahoma City.
7:36
Speaker 3: Do they have like I guess you wouldn't do this,
7:38
Speaker 3: but like lakes out there that you could know.
7:39
Speaker 2: Yeah, they have all of that, all that, it's fantastic.
7:41
Speaker 2: I like Oklahoma City as a police I'm just.
7:44
Speaker 3: Saying like, for me, if I was a millionaire and
7:45
Speaker 3: I could afford a lake house at a city like that,
7:47
Speaker 3: I would like what they do.
7:49
Speaker 2: Yeah, Okay, but if I'm twenty three, twenty four from
7:53
Speaker 2: one to see the world for the first time. I'm
7:55
Speaker 2: not trying to live right in the middle of America period. Yeah,
7:57
Speaker 2: and Chicago's big enough where it's fine and cool, but
8:00
Speaker 2: I don't want to have to live somewhere where they're
8:01
Speaker 2: connecting flights. Just generally speaking, in Oklahoma City, I mean,
8:06
Speaker 2: Salt Lake City would be tough for me to live in,
8:08
Speaker 2: especially if I weren't white and Mormon.
8:11
Speaker 3: Well, you don't drink, so they have that going for Yeah,
8:13
Speaker 3: that's true.
8:14
Speaker 2: So those would be the cities I wouldn't want to
8:16
Speaker 2: live in. Wow, no, San Antonio, those are my top
8:18
Speaker 2: ten to live in. I don't know, you.
8:20
Speaker 3: Said both Texas, Houston, and Sanatin.
8:22
Speaker 2: Oh I didn't hear.
8:23
Speaker 1: I saw I hear Houston, and then Dallas and Okay, okay, yeah,
8:26
Speaker 1: because San Antonia is weird because it's a great city,
8:30
Speaker 1: but if you were young, I feel like you wouldn't
8:32
Speaker 1: have fun there.
8:33
Speaker 2: Like I don't know to Ripley, believe it or not.
8:35
Speaker 2: Museum by the Alemo right across the street.
8:37
Speaker 1: Yeah, yes, I've been there, but it's crazy because like
8:42
Speaker 1: all of these old like David Robinson, h Duncan.
8:46
Speaker 2: All of them still live there. They never left. They
8:48
Speaker 2: wanted to stay there.
8:49
Speaker 3: Interesting there.
8:50
Speaker 2: It's the organization and the warmth that really made it
8:53
Speaker 2: for me. Yeah, because if you missed two of the
8:56
Speaker 2: three weather organization, city just city in general. If it
9:00
Speaker 2: missed two, it three. I couldn't pick you. You've been
9:02
Speaker 2: a San Antonio Kevin, No, you'd like it.
9:04
Speaker 3: I've only been in Dallas and Austin.
9:06
Speaker 2: I love Salt Lake City as a city. I've been
9:09
Speaker 2: a bunch of times because DJ lived there when he
9:11
Speaker 2: was coaching at Utah. We went eight times. Fantastic city,
9:15
Speaker 2: Too cold and way too white. If I were and
9:20
Speaker 2: I guess in my fantasy I'm a black player, I guess,
9:22
Speaker 2: yeah you are.
9:24
Speaker 3: We're making the NBA.
9:25
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't want to. That's not where I want
9:29
Speaker 2: to live. And the Jazz don't win. They haven't won
9:31
Speaker 2: really since Carmelon and John Stockton for the consistently.
9:35
Speaker 3: No, they had that short run with them.
9:37
Speaker 2: I think they're gonna be good now. Yeah, because they
9:39
Speaker 2: got Danny As over there running that right.
9:41
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, what do you think about Orlando's Florida?
9:45
Speaker 2: I'm okay with the organization. Middle Disney. Yeah, you got Disney.
9:52
Speaker 2: It's close enough to everything else. I get to play golf.
9:56
Speaker 2: The weather was a big part of it. Yeah, anyway,
9:58
Speaker 2: that's it. I don't want to play for scacer Man
9:59
Speaker 2: now sucked up saw Darius A cuff and so I thought,
10:01
Speaker 2: I'll make a list of ten places I don't want
10:02
Speaker 2: to play, ten places I do. If I were a
10:04
Speaker 2: young black male play bas I was watching Boozer after
10:10
Speaker 2: he was drafted third in Memphis, right yeah, And they
10:13
Speaker 2: go to the family room and so it's him, his dad,
10:17
Speaker 2: his mom is two brothers, including his twin brother. Imagine
10:20
Speaker 2: you're the twin I know. And it's not even that
10:24
Speaker 2: you didn't get drafted in the same spot, because we
10:26
Speaker 2: saw that with the Thompson brothers. They were both drafted
10:27
Speaker 2: in the top eight or nine picks. One went to Detroit,
10:31
Speaker 2: one went to Houston.
10:32
Speaker 3: Oh I was seen Clay. I was like Clay Amen and.
10:35
Speaker 2: Yeah I saw her, and I'm in yeah, Okay. They
10:38
Speaker 2: both got drafted lottery picks. So you go, oh, wow, dang,
10:42
Speaker 2: that's crazy. One twin brother is looked at us better
10:45
Speaker 2: than the other three or four picks difference. That's crazy.
10:49
Speaker 2: You got the Boozer twins. One of them gets drafted
10:52
Speaker 2: third overall, the other one doesn't even go in the draft.
10:54
Speaker 1: I know, yeah, yeah, yesterday it was like one of
10:57
Speaker 1: my kids was watching. He's like the Grizzlies Boozer and
11:01
Speaker 1: then the other kid goes, which one the bad one
11:03
Speaker 1: or the good one?
11:04
Speaker 3: Oh no, Hey.
11:06
Speaker 2: How about Cooper Flag though, Yeah, he's got a twin brother. Yeah,
11:10
Speaker 2: he's playing at Maine. You're the twin and you.
11:14
Speaker 1: Don't and so much talk about your brother.
11:18
Speaker 2: And you're the twins, and not only is that about
11:20
Speaker 2: your brother, but everybody wants to ask, Hey, what's it
11:22
Speaker 2: like being the twin?
11:23
Speaker 1: Yeah?
11:24
Speaker 3: I worry about my kids with that.
11:25
Speaker 2: Yeah, but at least you're this one boy, one girl. Yeah,
11:28
Speaker 2: because they're not gonna be on the same team, they're
11:30
Speaker 2: gonna be compared to each other constantly. But the Boozer twins, yeah,
11:34
Speaker 2: they played together, same team, same school, all of the
11:37
Speaker 2: Thompson brother same team, same everything.
11:39
Speaker 1: Yeah.
11:39
Speaker 2: Yeah, So I kind of felt bad for the brother
11:43
Speaker 2: in the back because the brother that had been drafted
11:45
Speaker 2: with dressed in all white, his dad was on the
11:46
Speaker 2: couch and the other brother, the guard, the smaller one,
11:49
Speaker 2: was back there in the back in a black suit,
11:52
Speaker 2: just chilling, and I didn't I didn't like how they
11:54
Speaker 2: made me feel. I feel bad for him.
11:57
Speaker 1: You know what I was thinking, Do you take your
11:59
Speaker 1: girlfriend to that with you?
12:01
Speaker 2: Because like, there are only two ways you do One
12:05
Speaker 2: if it's a very serious relationship and you've been together
12:07
Speaker 2: a long time, or two she's just starting to be
12:10
Speaker 2: your girlfriend and you want to flex so hard. Okay,
12:12
Speaker 2: if it's like a new ish three months, probably you
12:18
Speaker 2: can't or can't, But maybe I wouldn't because I wouldn't
12:21
Speaker 2: want to put her on TV. It depends how problematic
12:23
Speaker 2: she was about it. But I think the two ways
12:25
Speaker 2: you really do it is if you're together together for
12:27
Speaker 2: a long time and if you're just like wanting to
12:30
Speaker 2: convince her to be there. Yeah, because that's a super
12:33
Speaker 2: flex Because there are certain videos like Russell Wilson when
12:36
Speaker 2: he was drafted and his girlfriend at the time was
12:38
Speaker 2: like ah, and the meme is when when you think
12:41
Speaker 2: you're getting the bag, but you ain't exact because it's
12:43
Speaker 2: not the same girl.
12:44
Speaker 1: Yeah, and then you think, like you guys, tonight, your
12:47
Speaker 1: life is changing a lot, Like you're bringing your girlfriend
12:52
Speaker 1: to something that like is probably the reason.
12:54
Speaker 2: You won't be together in the next year. It reminds
12:58
Speaker 2: me of going to college and people coming to college
13:02
Speaker 2: that had a girlfriend already that didn't go to the
13:04
Speaker 2: same college. Yes, like they graduated high school, they had
13:06
Speaker 2: a girlfriend, and they decided where are we going to
13:08
Speaker 2: stay together? And now I'm gonna go to Arkansas and
13:10
Speaker 2: you're gonna go to Texas and we'll probably we'll stay
13:14
Speaker 2: together for sure, Like you ain't stay together.
13:17
Speaker 3: You come home the first time, you're like.
13:19
Speaker 1: Yeah, dude, my son's my my buddy's son decided to
13:24
Speaker 1: go to Auburn just because his girlfriend was at Auburn,
13:27
Speaker 1: and my buddy was like, dude, this is tough for me, Like,
13:30
Speaker 1: I just it's hard because I know they love each other,
13:32
Speaker 1: but I don't know if they're going to stay together,
13:34
Speaker 1: And is he making that decision just for the girl.
13:37
Speaker 2: Probably the only thing good about that is that Auburn
13:40
Speaker 2: is a really big, cool university and even if it
13:43
Speaker 2: doesn't work out, you're still at a really cool place.
13:45
Speaker 2: That's true if you had the option to go to
13:49
Speaker 2: a big SEC school that had the complete college lifestyle,
13:52
Speaker 2: but your girl was going to Concordia, same musing state, Yeah, yeah, yeah,
13:59
Speaker 2: I'm following her part Concordia right right, instead of going
14:02
Speaker 2: to Florida, That's where I think it would start to be,
14:06
Speaker 2: Oh no, what's he doing? Do I need to step
14:08
Speaker 2: in a big school like that? You're kind of gonna
14:11
Speaker 2: get the experience. Even if you break up, it's still
14:13
Speaker 2: going to be all because even if it doesn't work out,
14:14
Speaker 2: there's plenty of you's.
14:15
Speaker 3: Still at all, plenty of other girls.
14:17
Speaker 2: Yeah, So any thoughts from the draft.
14:22
Speaker 1: I just it was hard for me to explain to
14:24
Speaker 1: my wife that it's okay that the cameras in front
14:27
Speaker 1: of these people that haven't gotten picked yet, you know,
14:29
Speaker 1: because she was like, oh my gosh, it's so sad
14:31
Speaker 1: that like they keep putting the camera in front of
14:33
Speaker 1: these guys that are just waiting to be picked and
14:36
Speaker 1: they never get picked.
14:37
Speaker 2: I'm like, that's part of it. Yeah. They also all
14:39
Speaker 2: know where they're probably going to fall in and they
14:43
Speaker 2: have to get invited to be there, meaning there is
14:47
Speaker 2: an understanding and there's intelligence gathered by the NBA to
14:53
Speaker 2: know that it's fine to invite these people here. Because
14:57
Speaker 2: we've had so many Aaron Rodgers type situations. I mean
15:00
Speaker 2: three or four that I can think of, where the
15:02
Speaker 2: player just sits there and it's humiliating and they don't
15:05
Speaker 2: want that, so they want to make sure that does
15:08
Speaker 2: not happen. So, yeah, if you're there, you're there because
15:11
Speaker 2: you're most likely going to be a lottery And that's
15:14
Speaker 2: what I told her.
15:14
Speaker 1: They're eventually going to get to them. They just didn't
15:17
Speaker 1: fall where they expected them to fall. So and it
15:19
Speaker 1: could be for many reasons, like it could just be
15:21
Speaker 1: the team that wants them is waiting and they're in
15:23
Speaker 1: the back of the draft, like it's not there.
15:25
Speaker 2: Weren't the guys though there in the late first round
15:27
Speaker 2: where they're usually they only have lottery guys there.
15:30
Speaker 1: No, I think she was talking about the guy from Alabama, Uh,
15:34
Speaker 1: file Filon Uh, one of the guys from and he
15:38
Speaker 1: was expect Baron he was supposed to go earlier and
15:40
Speaker 1: he didn't.
15:41
Speaker 2: He was just sitting there for like eight So was
15:42
Speaker 2: he a projected lottery yeah guy. Yeah. I watched it
15:46
Speaker 2: all the way till A cuff was drafted. That was
15:48
Speaker 2: early seven. Yeah, and then I flipped back over during
15:52
Speaker 2: and I kept watching on the app. I just wanted
15:54
Speaker 2: to see what Oklhom City would get in the trained
15:55
Speaker 2: and they got that huge kid from Michigan. Yeah, they
15:57
Speaker 2: got to stop Wimby Mark Mara, the kid that was
16:01
Speaker 2: he's at UCLA then transferred to Michigan. He's seven foot four. Yeah,
16:04
Speaker 2: he doesn't run well, but it doesn't matter. They need
16:06
Speaker 2: big bodies.
16:08
Speaker 1: So yeah, the Spurs ended up getting a big man too.
16:12
Speaker 1: I guess to kind of give.
16:14
Speaker 2: Me a break and still have a president.
16:16
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, the Kentucky big Man.
16:18
Speaker 2: Did you guys have anybody in your hometown that went
16:21
Speaker 2: pro that we knew or that you knew of, And
16:26
Speaker 2: you're like, when you were going to school, Oh, is
16:29
Speaker 2: there anybody that you think back when you played that
16:33
Speaker 2: was really awesome around that time? Well that the hopes
16:37
Speaker 2: were kind of on.
16:38
Speaker 3: I played against and played within the All Star Game.
16:42
Speaker 3: Ronnie Hillman who won Super Bowl with the Broncos.
16:44
Speaker 2: Was he at school a baller in high school?
16:47
Speaker 3: Oh?
16:47
Speaker 2: Yeah? Was he the guy in your county? Yeah?
16:50
Speaker 3: Like he knocked us out of the playoffs. There was
16:51
Speaker 3: a great game. But they also had another running back
16:53
Speaker 3: who went to Fresno State and then in Byu who's
16:56
Speaker 3: really good too, but he was like just so fast,
16:59
Speaker 3: and so much better than everybody else out on that field.
17:02
Speaker 3: But he liked the nicest guy ever. We played again,
17:03
Speaker 3: someone was trying to get in his head a little bit,
17:05
Speaker 3: you know, and I would just like say something, just
17:07
Speaker 3: talking crap, and then he'd be like, m hm, he's
17:10
Speaker 3: just that good where he's like I don't even need
17:12
Speaker 3: to talk.
17:12
Speaker 2: So in your three four five years of near high school,
17:16
Speaker 2: was he the guy? Yes, did you have one of
17:19
Speaker 2: those dug guys?
17:21
Speaker 1: We had a guy that was really good at baseball
17:23
Speaker 1: and he ended up going to Tulane, and I remember
17:26
Speaker 1: there was a lot of like press, newspaper people and
17:29
Speaker 1: like TV people coming to interview him all the time.
17:31
Speaker 1: But no, dude, we were all little Mexican dudes, you know,
17:34
Speaker 1: and like we didn't get anywhere. Even if our team
17:37
Speaker 1: was successful in district. Once we went to the regional
17:41
Speaker 1: level or the state level, it was over.
17:43
Speaker 2: So we had a guy that we played against in baseball.
17:46
Speaker 2: He was also the quarterback on the box site football team,
17:49
Speaker 2: but he played baseball against us at box size. Name
17:52
Speaker 2: was Jay Darr and I think he ended up making
17:55
Speaker 2: it to the minor leagues. But he was that guy
17:57
Speaker 2: where everyone's like, that's freaking j do. He was a
17:59
Speaker 2: year older. He's one of the pros. He wanted the pros,
18:02

18:46
Speaker 2: John Lepley, who was the first autograph I ever got
18:48
Speaker 2: with the Arkansas Travelers. Yes, that was awesome. I would
18:51
Speaker 2: think that this guy J. Darr would end up being
18:53
Speaker 2: like a coach or something if I were just really
18:56
Speaker 2: doing the thing where you guess what happened in someone's life.
18:59

21:05
Speaker 2: Home runs at the College World Series.

Speaker 3: I think.
21:11
Speaker 2: Dang, that's cool.
21:12
Speaker 3: Did you ever have anybody when you guys are younger
21:13
Speaker 3: that was like the dude and like, I don't know,
21:16
Speaker 3: from second grade to like eighth grade and then everybody
21:19
Speaker 3: else just passed him up.
21:21
Speaker 2: Yeah. Side wise at my school, yeah, we had guys
21:24
Speaker 2: that developed really early. Yeah, and we're so fast and
21:29
Speaker 2: then everybody caught up with them. Yeah.
21:31
Speaker 3: I just remember those guys still to this day more
21:33
Speaker 3: than anything, just being like, dang, everyone were so young.
21:35
Speaker 3: They were like the.
21:36
Speaker 1: Guy that's like one of my boys, he used to
21:37
Speaker 1: score forty points a game, and now he's like he's
21:39
Speaker 1: lucky if he scores like seven, just because he's just
21:42
Speaker 1: he's everyone got taller than him.
21:46
Speaker 2: Do you guys think I should play Howie Mandel in
21:47
Speaker 2: Cards for ten thousand dollars? Uh? Poker? Hold him?
21:53
Speaker 1: Yea?
21:53
Speaker 2: Who know?
21:55
Speaker 3: Oh?
21:55
Speaker 2: Yeah I think you should.
21:57
Speaker 1: Yes, heck yeah, because it doesn't matter what you play,
22:00
Speaker 1: you're going to research how to win it.
22:02
Speaker 2: You can do it, dude.
22:03
Speaker 3: If it's one on one, know, is it just one game?
22:06
Speaker 2: Best of so I was talking to Howie Mandel. Interview
22:11
Speaker 2: comes out some point soon, and he is a big streamer,
22:16
Speaker 2: and so he played, not Neo because Neo has the
22:20
Speaker 2: song with Matt Still, it's another singer who it was Neo?
22:24
Speaker 2: Oh that's it? Oh he played? Okay, Okay, he played.
22:26
Speaker 2: He played for ten thousand dollars on his stream, and
22:31
Speaker 2: so I said, okay, if I come out there, we'll play.
22:33
Speaker 2: But then yeah, I just kind of be yes, you know, dude,
22:36
Speaker 2: if I could I pick any game, any card game,
22:40
Speaker 2: skip Bow? What the heck is that you never played
22:43
Speaker 2: skip bo? I don't know what that is.
22:45
Speaker 3: Oh okay, so yeah picked that one.
22:48
Speaker 2: Well, no, you have to, you know, know how to
22:49
Speaker 2: play it too, because.
22:51
Speaker 1: Even if it was like hold him dide, I think
22:53
Speaker 1: you should do that.
22:53
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm not going to play one on one poker
22:55
Speaker 2: because if you're not a poker player, you're going to
22:58
Speaker 2: feel like you're at a disadvantage. And I think I
23:00
Speaker 2: don't think he's a poker player. U. No, everybody's an
23:03
Speaker 2: Uno player, even if you're not a Nuno player. Yes,
23:06
Speaker 2: do you think I should take heck? Yeah, one thousand
23:08
Speaker 2: dollars cash? Yep? Would it be worth it if I
23:10
Speaker 2: lost it.
23:11
Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, even dude even to say that you lost
23:14
Speaker 1: it to Howie Mandel like playing his game, Yes.
23:16
Speaker 3: Playing Mike.
23:17
Speaker 2: You think he was serious? Oh yeah, definitely. Because he
23:20
Speaker 2: invited me to his warehouse where he does.
23:22
Speaker 1: His shows in California.
23:24
Speaker 2: Yeah. Well he has his show and he has those
23:27
Speaker 2: AI boxes where the celebrities are. Yeah. Have you seen those?
23:31
Speaker 2: Like airports? Uh, And so the celebrities pop up. It's
23:34
Speaker 2: like a hologram. But you can also use them to
23:37
Speaker 2: actually be in a place and be with someone at
23:39
Speaker 2: the same time. Like his example was Slash could actually
23:45
Speaker 2: be with a phone on him and then if you
23:47
Speaker 2: have that box at your house, Slash could give you
23:48
Speaker 2: guitar lessons like in real time. That's cool. But also
23:53
Speaker 2: at airports, you can just go in and they have
23:54
Speaker 2: like a hundred celebrities in there and you can just
23:56
Speaker 2: like talk to them pay for what airports You've never
23:59
Speaker 2: seen mean either. So, but he has part of that
24:02
Speaker 2: company and he was walking us around his warehouse showing
24:07
Speaker 2: and it's a big streamer and he was like, I
24:08
Speaker 2: play Neo for ten thousand and let's play. I was like,
24:11
Speaker 2: I'm in. But then like now, I gotta go, dude,
24:14
Speaker 2: you have to do it. That'd be awesome.
24:17
Speaker 3: Yeah, you can get to some other stuff while you're there.
24:18
Speaker 2: I did grip and I did say, hey, if I
24:21
Speaker 2: come out, I want a big picture of Bobby's World
24:22
Speaker 2: signed by you, that Bobby's World character. Yeah, I say
24:26
Speaker 2: a deal. Yeah, he was super nice. You think we
24:28
Speaker 2: could pull that off, Mike?
24:30
Speaker 3: I think so, Yeah, gotta do it. I've seen you
24:34
Speaker 3: spend ten grand on crazier things for sure, Like what, oh,
24:38
Speaker 3: my first thing that comes to my mind is a
24:39
Speaker 3: big box.
24:41
Speaker 2: I about it. Hey, your free to talk the cards, right,
24:43
Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't know. I don't know if
24:45
Speaker 2: that's how much they were. Was it?
24:46
Speaker 3: It was twenty five?
24:47
Speaker 2: Was oh oh that one? Yeah? For my birthday we
24:49
Speaker 2: opened I was twenty grand. Yeah, we talked about on
24:51
Speaker 2: the show. Yeah, because I called to tell my wife, Hey,
24:53
Speaker 2: I'm gonna send twenty grand on this box of cars.
24:55
Speaker 2: And then we opened them and I made I actually
24:57
Speaker 2: made money on that one, did you really? Yeah? I
25:00
Speaker 2: still have a lot of them too. I got the
25:01
Speaker 2: John F. Kennedy autograph in.
25:02
Speaker 3: That I remember, I was gonna say, I remember, like, yeah, Okay, Kennedy.
25:05
Speaker 2: I still have haven't sold that one, okay. I've probably
25:07
Speaker 2: made about eight thousand dollars back from that, and I
25:10
Speaker 2: have so many of those cards still, and I went
25:12
Speaker 2: and did a whole inventory on them because I keep
25:15
Speaker 2: everything on my notes app sports cards right here, and
25:19
Speaker 2: so I have this is just like the top twenty
25:22
Speaker 2: that I have up dang from that fifteen hundred, twelve
25:27
Speaker 2: fifty twelve fifty, one thousand, one thousand and one thousand,
25:29
Speaker 2: eight hundred. So this is from that one box. Good
25:31
Speaker 2: a lot of boxes. I've not made my money.
25:33
Speaker 1: Back, okay, So you're not talking about the one where
25:34
Speaker 1: you're looking for the Lebron.
25:35
Speaker 2: So that one was that was hard. I think it's
25:37
Speaker 2: about twelve thousand on that one that was and then
25:40
Speaker 2: made nothing. That was We were in New York for
25:43
Speaker 2: Fanatics Fest.
25:44
Speaker 3: Yeah, I remember that too, actually yep, oh yeah, wait.
25:47
Speaker 3: It was a guy at the table.
25:48
Speaker 2: We had the table rightyes, We're at a table. Everyone
25:50
Speaker 2: set it up and gathered around. I didn't hit a
25:52
Speaker 2: single Lebron rookie.
25:53
Speaker 3: Oh I remember that now.
25:54
Speaker 2: Then there were like three rookies I could have hit
25:56
Speaker 2: that would have been good. I hit nothing and I
25:57
Speaker 2: was like, oh, it's just like playing roulette.
25:59
Speaker 1: You got like a Stodammere And I still have it
26:02
Speaker 1: rookie and I hate it, yeah, because it brings back
26:05
Speaker 1: bad memories.
26:06
Speaker 2: I have it still to the house.
26:07
Speaker 1: You know what you gave me like a while back,
26:09
Speaker 1: and like, I just I just have it. And I
26:11
Speaker 1: never thought about it until like a couple of days ago.
26:13
Speaker 1: You gave me two Wemby rookies. Yeah, and I'm like, dude,
26:17
Speaker 1: I have Wemby Rookies. That's so cool.
26:19
Speaker 2: So I don't know.
26:20
Speaker 1: I'm probably gonna get him graded. I think I should
26:22
Speaker 1: get him graded and then hang on to him, right,
26:24
Speaker 1: because if he's the best of all time in the
26:27
Speaker 1: next you know, twenty.
26:28
Speaker 2: Years, Yeah, getting him gread it takes a long time.
26:32
Speaker 2: Our friend Steve sent off like twenty Jordan's to get graded,
26:36
Speaker 2: and no tens came back. No tens two nine, a
26:40
Speaker 2: bunch of eights. I felt so bad. And eights are
26:43
Speaker 2: like nothing, right, I mean, there's still nine. Nine is
26:46
Speaker 2: about the value you expect, maybe slightly more innate, unless
26:50
Speaker 2: it's an old card. It's where it's you've lost value
26:52
Speaker 2: on it and that's not good. Or if it's like
26:55
Speaker 2: an autograph. That's different because if it's a certain kind
26:57
Speaker 2: of autograph, it doesn't really matter the condition of the card,
26:59
Speaker 2: as long as it's not completely beat up. But yeah,
27:02
Speaker 2: you don't want eights, nines are fine, you want tens,
27:06
Speaker 2: And he sent I was texting with him about it.
27:12
Speaker 2: Here you go. I got my twenty two Jordan's back
27:15
Speaker 2: from PSA, not a single ten, and he numbered them.
27:21
Speaker 2: He has three six's, three sevens, fourteen eights and two nines.
27:27
Speaker 2: Oh that's terrible. And it costs a bunch to get
27:30
Speaker 2: stuff greaded. It takes like three months to get anything back.
27:31
Speaker 2: Now much too for like one card? Oh twelve fifteen bucks. Okay,
27:37
Speaker 2: because I that's me guessing.
27:38
Speaker 1: I have a handful of cards that I should get
27:40
Speaker 1: taken care of.
27:41
Speaker 3: Yeah, if I've never been pulled out of a sleeve,
27:44
Speaker 3: if your boys ever touched.
27:44
Speaker 1: Them, No, nobody, nobody can touch those U. Two I
27:47
Speaker 1: got from our little party that we went to, our
27:49
Speaker 1: top party.
27:50
Speaker 2: It was.
27:52
Speaker 1: A rod a rod auto you know, Anna Miguel Cabre.
27:56
Speaker 2: Yeah, we got to go to a party in Baltimore
27:57
Speaker 2: because of that box that I bought for twenty grand.
27:59
Speaker 3: Yeah, I forgot about uh and who is it? Rechmand people?
28:02
Speaker 2: Yeah, and who's the other guy, the other Baltimore young guy.
28:08
Speaker 2: It wasn't holiday, no, no, no, it was the year
28:11
Speaker 2: before holiday. Gosh what's his name?
28:14
Speaker 3: Yeah, I know Gunner Henderson.
28:17
Speaker 2: That's it.
28:17
Speaker 3: That's it.
28:19
Speaker 2: Yeah, So I might go play Howie Mandel Mike, because
28:22
Speaker 2: Mike's the one that deals with people if they'll do it.
28:27
Speaker 2: I don't know who you talked to from that that camp.
28:30
Speaker 2: Who did you email with?
28:31
Speaker 3: You know, you're just a PR team.
28:33
Speaker 2: Yeah, just say hey, how I mentioned it? You know?
28:36
Speaker 2: He'd play Bobby into around. It's if he was serious
28:40
Speaker 2: about streaming for a card game for ten thousand dollars.
28:42
Speaker 2: Get if so they'd be like what, yeah he said,
28:46
Speaker 2: he said what if? So I'll tell you this guy
28:50
Speaker 2: I come back.
28:50
Speaker 1: They're like, no, how he's been trying, you know, we're
28:52
Speaker 1: trying to get him not to gamble anymore.
28:55
Speaker 3: He's going through a phase right now.
28:57
Speaker 2: But I should do it right, Yes, did you watch
29:01
Speaker 2: the soccer game last night? I did?
29:04
Speaker 1: I did only because I bet over three and a half.
29:08
Speaker 2: It hit that huh, it hit five? So I saw
29:12
Speaker 2: America score quick, oh so quick? And that's when I bet.
29:16
Speaker 1: I was like, Oh, they're gonna score a lot now
29:18
Speaker 1: because they scored in the first five minutes.
29:20
Speaker 2: Then I was like, who cares anyway, We're gonna win,
29:22
Speaker 2: and not only we're gonna win, this game doesn't matter.
29:24
Speaker 1: It didn't matter. It didn't matter for anyone really.
29:26
Speaker 2: So I just would flip back on ESPN the app
29:30
Speaker 2: to see where we were. Equalizer means when they evened up, right, Oh,
29:34
Speaker 2: I don't know, and Mike is that equalizer when they
29:36
Speaker 2: even it up? Yeah? Yeah, so equalizer happened one to one,
29:38
Speaker 2: didn't Turkey scored again, two to one? Yeah. Then I
29:42
Speaker 2: fell asleep, and then I woke up and saw America
29:45
Speaker 2: had scored again. The United States had Yeah, I don't
29:47
Speaker 2: think he scored, but polisit came back in. He can
29:50
Speaker 2: not back in, but he came in Towards the end
29:52
Speaker 2: of the game. I saw I played a little bit. Yeah,
29:53
Speaker 2: which is weird. I don't know why you would do that.
29:55
Speaker 2: Maybe reps shape say in shape, okay, game shape don't
29:58
Speaker 2: have two weeks off a whole, it'd be a month.
30:01
Speaker 2: That had been a month almost for him because he
30:02
Speaker 2: didn't play all the first game right, you're right. So
30:06
Speaker 2: and then Turkey scored at the end of the game.
30:08
Speaker 1: Oh with I think within thirty seconds left.
30:11
Speaker 2: Oh is it that tight? D Did you see it?
30:14
Speaker 2: I did?
30:15
Speaker 1: Were you like, oh, like disappointed or now? Because I
30:18
Speaker 1: knew it didn't matter. The only thing I thought was like,
30:20
Speaker 1: oh my gosh, this could be a big deal for
30:22
Speaker 1: Turkey because they could get in. But then I did
30:25
Speaker 1: the research and I'm like, no, they had no chance.
30:27
Speaker 1: Didn't we play basically all the scrubs. Yeah, we played
30:31
Speaker 1: our group, we played Australia.
30:33
Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, the bench players oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeahah,
30:36
Speaker 2: it was all scrubs. Nobody with a yellow card. Correct,
30:39
Speaker 2: even polistic just played for a bit. Correct. But it
30:42
Speaker 2: was all like second string because what I was seeing
30:45
Speaker 2: was people talking about, Hey, this looks like what we
30:47
Speaker 2: used to look like, and there's such a difference even
30:50
Speaker 2: now with our first and second string. It's terrible at
30:52
Speaker 2: our backups. Are you a good enough soccer watcher to
30:56
Speaker 2: know that we were worse? I mean no, not really.
31:02
Speaker 1: When I watch soccer, I look at the field as
31:04
Speaker 1: a whole, right, and you just kind of look at
31:06
Speaker 1: like the chest pieces move and you can tell when
31:09
Speaker 1: you watch Argentina Brazil, like those good teams, it's always
31:14
Speaker 1: on offense. Eighty percent of the game is on offense
31:18
Speaker 1: on those good teams. I mean with us, the fact
31:20
Speaker 1: that we scored so quickly, I was like, oh my gosh, mate,
31:24
Speaker 1: with our scrubs, maybe we're better.
31:25
Speaker 2: Than we thought. What were the announcers calling Turkey?
31:29
Speaker 1: Oh that's a good point because obviously it's spelled takai
31:32
Speaker 1: turkey A.
31:33
Speaker 2: Yeah, turny yeah?
31:34
Speaker 1: Yeah. Were they calling them that turkey A? I don't know,
31:39
Speaker 1: I heard it? Yeah, did they say turkey a mike?
31:41
Speaker 2: Yeah? So is that just their name? Though? Are we
31:44
Speaker 2: just wrong?
31:45
Speaker 4: I think there are a lot of countries like that
31:46
Speaker 4: that we say it a certain way, like an Americanized version,
31:49
Speaker 4: and they say it a completely different way.
31:50
Speaker 2: See, that's not fair to me. But we're also having
31:53
Speaker 2: Americans say it, So why aren't the Americans saying it
31:56
Speaker 2: the American way?
31:57
Speaker 4: Then it's like, I guess the universal way you say
31:59
Speaker 4: somebody's country's names, and then the way they say.
32:01
Speaker 2: Everybody agrees to the universal way.
32:03
Speaker 1: I feel like we should call them whatever they call them, right,
32:05
Speaker 1: Like if I call myself Eddie, I would like for
32:08
Speaker 1: everyone to call me eddie.
32:10
Speaker 2: I don't want someone else saying like the Yeah, but
32:14
Speaker 2: we've been calling them Turkey forever up up until this game,
32:17
Speaker 2: up until this World Cup.
32:18
Speaker 1: I get it, But I mean that's so offensive to them,
32:21
Speaker 1: isn't it.
32:22
Speaker 2: Like some countries that are pronounced completely different than we're
32:24
Speaker 2: talking talking about them anyway, like like even in their language.
32:28
Speaker 2: Oh really yeah, we want to do their accents too,
32:30
Speaker 2: but like Germany, they don't call themselves Germany, right, Steutschland? Yeah,
32:34
Speaker 2: oh that's Deutschland.
32:35
Speaker 1: Yeah.
32:36
Speaker 2: My point is I have no idea what to call anybody.
32:39
Speaker 2: You know what, I don't give a crap how you identify.
32:41
Speaker 2: I will respect it. That's it's my official statement. I
32:45
Speaker 2: however you want to identify, it does not affect me
32:47
Speaker 2: at all. I respect how you identify. Dude.
32:49
Speaker 1: You know what I've been doing is if they score
32:52
Speaker 1: a goal, I will record the Spanish broadcast and then
32:56
Speaker 1: we go to the Spanish broadcast once because my kids
32:59
Speaker 1: love hearing the Spanish broadcast of.
33:02
Speaker 2: They still do that. Oh yeah, I listened to it too,
33:04
Speaker 2: That's what I watch. Do you watch the whole thing
33:07
Speaker 2: in Spanish? Do you know what they're saying? Yeah, much
33:09
Speaker 2: better commentary. Oh you can understand what they're saying, so exciting.
33:12
Speaker 2: I can't. It's way too fast. I was listening to
33:15
Speaker 2: someone who I wish uto the podcast because I would
33:18
Speaker 2: credit it. He was a soccer analyst talking about really
33:22
Speaker 2: why we're not good at soccer. Obviously it's not our
33:27
Speaker 2: main sport, but that these kids, these two three, four
33:31
Speaker 2: five year olds, it's not that they're in leagues, but
33:34
Speaker 2: they grow up playing with a ball with their feet
33:38
Speaker 2: in their developmental stages and so correct even before they
33:43
Speaker 2: start to play in any sort of league or team,
33:47
Speaker 2: They've spent years learning how to use their body with
33:51
Speaker 2: a ball before they actually start playing ball. Yeah, and
33:54
Speaker 2: we don't, No, that's that's not what we do. There
33:56
Speaker 2: are three year olds that will swing a golf club
33:59
Speaker 2: or hit off a tee with a bat, but it's
34:01
Speaker 2: not you put a soccer ball in front of a kid.
34:03
Speaker 2: I just thought that was really interesting. Another thing that
34:06
Speaker 2: I heard one of these experts on a different podcast.
34:09
Speaker 2: I feel like such a loser for not being able
34:10
Speaker 2: to credit who. But I've listened to a lot of
34:12
Speaker 2: people talk about it is that they're really good coaches
34:17
Speaker 2: in Europe and South America. Like they're really good, almost
34:20
Speaker 2: the great ones. They won't coach the really high teams.
34:26
Speaker 2: They have such an understanding of their youth needs to
34:32
Speaker 2: be good. They will put them and have them coach
34:34
Speaker 2: the twelve to fifteen year old oh, to get them
34:36
Speaker 2: better earlier. They are paid so well to coach their
34:40
Speaker 2: twelve and fifteen year olds. Wow, that they want to
34:44
Speaker 2: make sure that they're really good, get great, and that's
34:48
Speaker 2: the time to do that before they know. Like I
34:51
Speaker 2: think Messi was sixteen when he started playing with his club,
34:54
Speaker 2: his adult club team. He's young, but they have such
34:58
Speaker 2: an appreciation and and they put their resources into those
35:01
Speaker 2: coaches coaching eleven, twelve, thirteen to fourteen year olds.
35:04
Speaker 1: Wow.
35:05
Speaker 2: Interesting, I thought so too. They pay them a lot
35:08
Speaker 2: of money. We're here. The younger you're coaching, the less
35:12
Speaker 2: money you're making. Period.
35:13
Speaker 1: Yeah, And like eleven year olds, you got dad's coaching
35:16
Speaker 1: high school.
35:17
Speaker 2: A great high school coach that's doing football is making
35:19
Speaker 2: a few hundred thousand dollars a year in like Texas.
35:22
Speaker 2: But generally high school coaches they're doing fine. But the
35:26
Speaker 2: lower the classification not so much. And you go to college,
35:28
Speaker 2: it's more NFL. It's the opposite, like the higher you are,
35:33
Speaker 2: the better. Now in these countries, the best of the
35:35
Speaker 2: best do coach the national teams and the big club teams,
35:42
Speaker 2: but they really do put their great coaches with those
35:44
Speaker 2: developmental developed, developmental kids.
35:46
Speaker 1: What I thought was interesting is, uh, was it you
35:50
Speaker 1: asking like how much the coaches?
35:52
Speaker 2: Yeah?
35:53
Speaker 1: The great question, because I feel like they don't know
35:56
Speaker 1: these guys, like how much did they really impact? Yeah,
36:00
Speaker 1: you're just thrown into like all right, you're coaching the
36:02
Speaker 1: national team now, and here's your squad, and then you're
36:05
Speaker 1: just like, oh man, all right, let's get to know
36:07
Speaker 1: these guys.
36:08
Speaker 2: So what I also learned from that that I think
36:11
Speaker 2: Taylor Twelveman was on with us. Now he didn't say
36:13
Speaker 2: this specifically, but I was listening to I know, I
36:17
Speaker 2: was listening to PFT comment or talk about this that
36:21
Speaker 2: the style that this coach that we have with the
36:24
Speaker 2: United States has is on defense. When they have the ball,
36:30
Speaker 2: pretty much our whole team runs to the ball. It
36:32
Speaker 2: is a much more cardio running, aggressive defensive style. Well,
36:40
Speaker 2: when America's on defense, yeah, okay, everybody goes to the ball. Okay.
36:43
Speaker 2: What he compared it to thankfully American wives was Tips
36:47
Speaker 2: who coached the Knicks, who never took his players out,
36:49
Speaker 2: and that was his thing with the next last year
36:50
Speaker 2: obviously that he didn't win the championship, he was fired
36:52
Speaker 2: last year. But he would play those guys the whole game.
36:55
Speaker 2: They'd run a six man rotation, like occasionally someone would
36:59
Speaker 2: sub in for one of the five, and Tips his
37:02
Speaker 2: reputation was, you're one of the five. You're playing the
37:04
Speaker 2: whole game. It's aggressive, but by the end of the game,
37:06
Speaker 2: you're worn out. This coach has that same style and
37:11
Speaker 2: he would often and I don't know which league he
37:15
Speaker 2: coached in, let's just say Premier League, it's only league
37:17
Speaker 2: I now. When he was coaching a Premier League team,
37:20
Speaker 2: they would often peter out at the end of their
37:22
Speaker 2: seasons too, because they would be just exhausted. So he's
37:24
Speaker 2: a great coach, but his style was hard. But why
37:27
Speaker 2: it works for us now is you're talking about a
37:29
Speaker 2: single tournament with with with a weight, ten games and
37:34
Speaker 2: a week rest. Yeah, but his style is so much
37:37
Speaker 2: of that, which is way different than the other coach
37:39
Speaker 2: that we had, and generally the other coaches who okay,
37:42
Speaker 2: we're on defense, get in your positions, Yeah, and play
37:45
Speaker 2: defense accordingly.
37:46
Speaker 1: So would it be equivalent to like a trap in basketball.
37:49
Speaker 2: Like if you're trapping the whole if you're know what
37:50
Speaker 2: it would be equivalent to his full court press the
37:52
Speaker 2: whole game, full court press.
37:53
Speaker 1: Arkansas did forty minutes a hell with Nolan Richardson. That's
37:56
Speaker 1: what it would be, the equivalent. That's what they call it,
37:57
Speaker 1: forty minutes of hell.
37:59
Speaker 2: That's cool because when the game started, it's full court
38:01
Speaker 2: press the whole game. We would kill people. We want
38:03
Speaker 2: a national championship. Don't know what to do. But you
38:04
Speaker 2: had to have super athletes to do that, and he
38:07
Speaker 2: had to be in great shape. I think that's the
38:10
Speaker 2: comparison to what we do on defense now from what
38:12
Speaker 2: I've learned.
38:14
Speaker 1: You know what's so amazing about Messi is if you
38:17
Speaker 1: watch Messi and just watch him when you're watching the game,
38:19
Speaker 1: he doesn't run a lot like he really just kind
38:23
Speaker 1: of jogs a little bit, walks a lot, But when
38:26
Speaker 1: it's his time to get in position, he sprints. He's
38:29
Speaker 1: not tired. When he has the ball, he hasn't been running,
38:32
Speaker 1: so he's not tired. He's got so much energy. It's
38:35
Speaker 1: almost like experience to learn that you can conserve your
38:38
Speaker 1: energy and move when you really need to instead of
38:41
Speaker 1: running the entire game.
38:42
Speaker 2: Or is it because he plays in the midfield and
38:44
Speaker 2: he doesn't have to go very far? Or is it
38:47
Speaker 2: like an NBA player who doesn't play like Kyrie Irving
38:50
Speaker 2: doesn't play defense, he's carry midfielder. I don't know, but
38:54
Speaker 2: Kyrie Irving is such a great offensive player they don't
38:56
Speaker 2: want him getting tired on defense. Yeah, so he's a
38:58
Speaker 2: weak defensive player because if he plays defense so hard,
39:02
Speaker 2: he's not gonna have the energy to play offense for
39:04
Speaker 2: as good as he is. So he kind of sucks
39:07
Speaker 2: a defense. Yeah. But I when I see that with
39:10
Speaker 2: MESSI I wonder if that's what is he's such an
39:12
Speaker 2: elite scorer. If he's playing really hard defense, he doesn't
39:14
Speaker 2: get to be elite at what he's elite at. He
39:16
Speaker 2: won't have that energy.
39:17
Speaker 1: What has he played? You know, he's a forward? Okay,
39:19
Speaker 1: I don't know what that means. Is that in the middle, Nah,
39:21
Speaker 1: it's like in the front, And yeah, he's a score.
39:23
Speaker 1: So he's not really having to play that much defense anyway, No,
39:25
Speaker 1: not really, but I mean, yeah, you have to because
39:29
Speaker 1: you're the front line, but like once it.
39:30
Speaker 2: Gets past year, you're not run a bag all the
39:32
Speaker 2: way there, right put. Your best player is a forward?
39:34
Speaker 2: Offensive player?
39:35
Speaker 3: Yeah?
39:35
Speaker 2: Offensive player? Yeah?
39:38
Speaker 1: Yeah.
39:38
Speaker 2: I feel like it's an NBA player who's really good
39:39
Speaker 2: at offense who they don't make play that much defense
39:41
Speaker 2: and he kind of sucks. But that's the give because
39:43
Speaker 2: he's so good offensively that you don't His job is
39:46
Speaker 2: not to play intense defense.
39:49
Speaker 3: But I know nothing.
39:49
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know I don't either.
39:50
Speaker 1: But back to what you're saying about, like why other
39:52
Speaker 1: countries are so good. I remember being little and we'd
39:56
Speaker 1: go to Mexico City and to go visit some friends
39:58
Speaker 1: or whatever. He probably went like ten times when I
40:00
Speaker 1: was growing up. But I noticed that when we'd go
40:03
Speaker 1: to a playground, there weren't basketball goals. There weren't hoops.
40:09
Speaker 1: They were all soccer goals. Oh you noticed that?
40:12
Speaker 2: Yeah?
40:12
Speaker 1: I remember that because I'd be like, well, let's play
40:14
Speaker 1: basketball and they're like, oh, we don't have that goal.
40:16
Speaker 1: Is like, you know, in another neighborhood, because every park
40:20
Speaker 1: had a soccer goal.
40:21
Speaker 2: Do you do you ever notice that? Mic? Yeah?
40:22
Speaker 4: I also think about the terrain, Like I would just
40:24
Speaker 4: go and be in a ranch and be a dirt
40:26
Speaker 4: field and you just play soccer.
40:27
Speaker 2: You can't play football there. You can't play basketball. It's
40:29
Speaker 2: also super cheap to play. Yeah, it's a great point too.
40:33
Speaker 2: There he needs the ball in shoes. It's why a
40:37
Speaker 2: lot of kids can play basketball. Now. Of course you
40:40
Speaker 2: do need a rim in the goal, but goals are
40:42
Speaker 2: pretty cheap and you can kind of patch a goal
40:45
Speaker 2: together if you need to and have to. Where football
40:47
Speaker 2: is more expensive, Baseball you need players and equipment a
40:49
Speaker 2: lot of players, or basketball you don't need that many.
40:53
Speaker 2: Then you get to the rich sports like skiing. Oh gosh,
40:55
Speaker 2: never been done that. You ever skied? Never even seen
40:58
Speaker 2: a ski?
40:59
Speaker 1: Yeah, I ski when I was in high school, snow
41:02
Speaker 1: one time, one time only, and we didn't understand what
41:06
Speaker 1: the diamonds were and the colors of the slopes. So
41:09
Speaker 1: my brother and I we got up there and we're like,
41:12
Speaker 1: all right, dude, let's go, let's just hit the diamond
41:14
Speaker 1: like that's where this thing is taking us the whatever,
41:16
Speaker 1: the snow, the the lift or whatever.
41:19
Speaker 2: And dude, we got out.
41:20
Speaker 1: And this is after an hour of ski school, because
41:23
Speaker 1: you're required to have ski school before you even like
41:25
Speaker 1: hit the slopes if you've never skied before. And so
41:28
Speaker 1: we get up there and I remember getting off that
41:31
Speaker 1: lift and just seeing, dude, we were on top of
41:32
Speaker 1: the mountain and I remember seeing a.
41:35
Speaker 2: Huge, huge steep slope and at.
41:38
Speaker 1: The very end we're all like the shops the village, right,
41:42
Speaker 1: and so we were like, hey, dude, let's just do it.
41:44
Speaker 1: We're all the way up here, and I just almost
41:46
Speaker 1: like you know the Olympics, the slalomo, the guy just
41:49
Speaker 1: holds the skis up under his armfits or the hand
41:52
Speaker 1: thing under his armpits and then just go straight.
41:54
Speaker 2: That's what we did.
41:55
Speaker 1: We were idiots, dude, because the ground just got closer
41:58
Speaker 1: and closer close, and I just like I bailed. I
42:02
Speaker 1: was like I have to bail, and bails in full.
42:04
Speaker 1: I just fell backwards, almost like I'm dying. And that's
42:07
Speaker 1: because that's the only way I could stop, or else
42:08
Speaker 1: I was going to run into everyone down there. Would
42:12
Speaker 1: you want to ski now?
42:13
Speaker 2: No? Would you no to even do it once?
42:17
Speaker 1: I mean I feel like with my kids, I would
42:19
Speaker 1: have to just because I would like to do it
42:21
Speaker 1: with Would you like to take them skiing?
42:22
Speaker 2: Yes?
42:23
Speaker 1: I think they would love ski I have no interest,
42:26
Speaker 1: but I don't. I don't like cold. It's not even
42:28
Speaker 1: the scan. I don't like any of that. And there's
42:29
Speaker 1: nothing about that that interests me. I didn't grow up
42:32
Speaker 1: around it, so that's a big reason. Yeah, so nothing
42:34
Speaker 1: interests me about snow skining. I don't like cold, I
42:36
Speaker 1: don't like snow, I don't like heights, and then I
42:39
Speaker 1: don't want to tear something over twenty four.
42:41
Speaker 2: I think it'd be different, different. I can think I'd
42:43
Speaker 2: want to experience it, but there's nothing about skiing that
42:46
Speaker 2: interests me. What about snowboarding?
42:48
Speaker 1: Same because I've never snowboarded, and I feel like, if
42:51
Speaker 1: I go back, I want a snowboard.
42:53
Speaker 2: Scotty did that my friend, because when he moved to
42:55
Speaker 2: Utah and Colorado said first down snowboard sent me an
42:58
Speaker 2: x Ray broke his rest in two. Yeah, didn't even
43:01
Speaker 2: on his hands.
43:02
Speaker 1: He didn't even wipe out hard, just fell back, maybe
43:05
Speaker 1: snapped it. But you can do that with anything fair.
43:09
Speaker 1: I don't like things where you can slip. You're always slipping.
43:10
Speaker 1: You're just fighting slipping all the time. On dude, that's
43:13
Speaker 1: I stopped skateboarding. It's like I'm just asking for an injury.
43:16
Speaker 2: At this point too, because you don't heal as fast.
43:18
Speaker 2: Once I hit thirty, I'm like, I got to retire. Man.
43:20
Speaker 1: I ran into another dad a couple of days ago
43:22
Speaker 1: and he had a broken finger.
43:24
Speaker 2: Like, what happened, dude? He's like, man, you just get old.
43:27
Speaker 1: Like I dropped something between my seat and my console
43:29
Speaker 1: and my car, and I jammed my hand down there
43:31
Speaker 1: to get it.
43:32
Speaker 2: He broke his finger. Broke my finger. I'm playing pickleball
43:35
Speaker 2: for the first time next week since my surgery in November.
43:37
Speaker 2: There we go. I'm a little nervous. I went to
43:39
Speaker 2: worked out with Kevin Klue a couple of days ago,
43:41
Speaker 2: our old trainer. I heard ankles a little sore. I'd
43:45
Speaker 2: been running on it, so that was different than we
43:47
Speaker 2: were doing. We were doing like inclined swats, squats where
43:50
Speaker 2: you get on an incline and front, so that's probably different.
43:55
Speaker 2: But I've not played pickleball. It's just not Honestly, it
43:57
Speaker 2: feels like it's not worth it. I just went through
43:59
Speaker 2: six months of that sucked. But you love playing the game.
44:03
Speaker 2: I do, but it's not I don't love it so much.
44:05
Speaker 2: I want to have another ankle surgery. Yeah, but I'm
44:07
Speaker 2: gonna play and see how it goes. You know, I'll
44:09
Speaker 2: be playing tournament segain in three months. I that's a
44:11
Speaker 2: little bit why I'm so annoyed that I'm even wanting
44:13
Speaker 2: because if I started, I'm going to be back into it.
44:15
Speaker 2: It's going to do one tournament, yeah, next thing.
44:18
Speaker 4: You know.
44:19
Speaker 2: I am proud of myself from that tournament though, because
44:20
Speaker 2: I tore it playing in a tournament and finished third
44:22
Speaker 2: in that tournament. I didn't know I tore it, and
44:24
Speaker 2: that was your first tournament, right, Yes, I did not know.
44:27
Speaker 2: It'd be different if I knew I tore it, because
44:29
Speaker 2: that's hardcore and that's awesome because you're playing through it
44:32
Speaker 2: because I played through pain. But I just thought this
44:36
Speaker 2: will be fine. But I did finish third in that
44:38
Speaker 2: tournament where I tore my ankle.
44:40
Speaker 1: Man, that was like me when I broke my foot
44:42
Speaker 1: on the second base at the Cardinals Bush Stadium. I
44:46
Speaker 1: played through it, Dude, I didn't know I was broken.
44:48
Speaker 1: Then later that night, couldn't even walk on it, couldn't
44:51
Speaker 1: put any pressure on it. Yeah, you were only competing though, dude.
44:56
Speaker 1: Do you know how cool it is to tell people
44:58
Speaker 1: that I broke my foot. That's why did want to say,
45:00
Speaker 1: won't even competing. I took a second. I thought about
45:02
Speaker 1: what I wanted to say.
45:02
Speaker 2: Here.
45:04
Speaker 1: Anytime any dads are together and we're talking about broken bones,
45:07
Speaker 1: I'm like, dude, let me tell you my story. They're
45:10
Speaker 1: like they're like Bush Bush picture at Bush Stadium, like
45:13
Speaker 1: where the Cardinals lit, where the Cardinals flit, Saint Louis Cardinals.
45:18
Speaker 2: Eddie said he almost died coming to the building the
45:21
Speaker 2: other day. He tried to beat a train.
45:22
Speaker 1: He tells you this, Mike, Oh yeah, Mike, what's our
45:24
Speaker 1: Oh so he's told everybody this. Now, Mike, what's our rule?
45:27
Speaker 1: What's our rule? When you know we can't be late?
45:28
Speaker 2: Right? If there's a train, you take a picture of it.
45:30
Speaker 1: I think that's okay, that's a cop out. Can you
45:33
Speaker 1: imagine if I texted you a picture of a train, Hey, man, stuck.
45:35
Speaker 2: Behind a train. For someone that grew up in a
45:37
Speaker 2: town that trains held everything up for half an hour,
45:39
Speaker 2: I would have actually understood that one.
45:41
Speaker 1: Dude, how crazy? How long these trains are? Oh yeah,
45:45
Speaker 1: but like I've been stuck behind a train for like
45:48
Speaker 1: twenty minutes, and you're just like what like, it never ends.
45:53
Speaker 2: You shouldn't try to beat a train. But here's the deal.
45:56
Speaker 1: The bars weren't even down yet, so the bell was
46:00
Speaker 1: ringing the bell. No, you don't go the bells? Did
46:04
Speaker 1: you love both ways? And you didn't see it? I didn't.
46:06
Speaker 1: I saw it coming. No, if you see it, you
46:08
Speaker 1: can't go. Plenty of room, plenty of time. And then dude,
46:11
Speaker 1: I looked behind me as soon as I crossed the
46:12
Speaker 1: roilroad tracks and those bars like came down right behind me.
46:17
Speaker 2: I'm glad you didn't die.
46:18
Speaker 1: I do. I would have been twenty minutes later. That's
46:20
Speaker 1: okay though, for a train, that's okay. One final thing.
46:23
Speaker 1: Let's let's end on soccer. Eddie and I were in
46:26
Speaker 1: the bathroom talking about the rules of soccer, which we
46:28
Speaker 1: don't know and I don't. In the NBA, let's say
46:31
Speaker 1: you leave a player back, you go to play offense.
46:34
Speaker 1: Let's say you're playing defense, but you leave a player
46:36
Speaker 1: back cherry picking.
46:37
Speaker 2: Cherry picking right under the basket. Ye, he's just under there.
46:40
Speaker 2: While you got four guys playing defense on five guys,
46:42
Speaker 2: but you got one guy back. You get the rebounder,
46:44
Speaker 2: you throw it to your cherry picker. Woo easy to
46:46
Speaker 2: NBA doesn't go off sides?
46:50
Speaker 1: I sing, No, you just choose to play defensively with
46:53
Speaker 1: one less person.
46:54
Speaker 2: Leave someone down there, you take the risk. Yeah, in soccer,
46:58
Speaker 2: they don't let you do that. They call freaking off side.
47:00
Speaker 2: So the flag. If you want to have somebody down there,
47:02
Speaker 2: keep somebody down there.
47:03
Speaker 1: How crazy is that guy's only job is to look
47:06
Speaker 1: it for off lift that flag.
47:08
Speaker 2: It's his only job. Yeah, they should allow cherry pick.
47:11
Speaker 2: I've got two rules that I've thought about that I
47:14
Speaker 2: would implement as an American that knows nothing about soccer
47:17
Speaker 2: and will probably be stupid. Number One, we allow cherry picking.
47:20
Speaker 2: That's it. Now you're gonna have one less guy on defense,
47:23
Speaker 2: so the offense should take advantage of that risk it. Yeah,
47:26
Speaker 2: so leave and if you don't like it, keep a
47:28
Speaker 2: player back on defense to guard him. So we allow
47:30
Speaker 2: cherry picking. Two instead of one ball, there's two. Now
47:36
Speaker 2: it's like pinball. You know, when that other ball comes out,
47:38
Speaker 2: you're like, it's too much, But which one do I hit?
47:43
Speaker 1: But you're not let me finish because the field's so
47:47
Speaker 1: big and they don't score enough, and a lot of
47:50
Speaker 1: times they're like, kick it back to the guy behind them,
47:52
Speaker 1: and they kick it back to the guy behind them
47:54
Speaker 1: and k and then you're starting over to get to
47:56
Speaker 1: spit four minutes watching you guys kick it back to
47:58
Speaker 1: midfield again. So what are they doing with that of
48:01
Speaker 1: the ball?
48:01
Speaker 2: If there were two balls, now, only one of the
48:06
Speaker 2: balls is the real ball, but they look exactly the same.
48:09
Speaker 2: You know how when you watch the cup challenge in
48:10
Speaker 2: a ball game and you got and you have to see.
48:13
Speaker 1: Where the thing is under the cup, and you're like,
48:14
Speaker 1: it's cup one, it's cup one.
48:16
Speaker 2: Both balls come out and they show you which one
48:18
Speaker 2: is the real ball. At first, this is the real woman.
48:20
Speaker 2: They look exactly the same. Now the players can mix
48:22
Speaker 2: them up with their feet all they want, but only
48:24
Speaker 2: one of them is the real ball. So if you
48:26
Speaker 2: can identify which one is the fake ball, that's great,
48:29
Speaker 2: just play that one while somebody else. But if you
48:31
Speaker 2: can't and they do the mix ups or you can't
48:34
Speaker 2: watch it anymore, you don't know which ball is the
48:36
Speaker 2: real ball. You're doing circus games in the middle of game.
48:39
Speaker 2: Tell me that would be so fun. So do we
48:42
Speaker 2: get two goalies? No, just one? Everything's the same all right,
48:45
Speaker 2: you're trying to keep your eye on the real ball.
48:46
Speaker 2: It's like that cup game where you trying to three car.
48:48
Speaker 1: Moni even but once you figure out the ball the
48:51
Speaker 1: real but you never really know, such as the fake one,
48:54
Speaker 1: but you never really know.
48:56
Speaker 2: You think you know. But if the team's really good
48:58
Speaker 2: at switching it up, eighty percent of your team's probably
49:01
Speaker 2: on the real ball. But it literally is like are
49:03
Speaker 2: we sure? So? When is it revealed? When they kick?
49:07
Speaker 2: If a ball goes in and it's the real one,
49:09
Speaker 2: it's the real one. If there's a tracker on it,
49:11
Speaker 2: like the light goes off on a back, like when
49:13
Speaker 2: the shot clock expires or hockey, yeah, woo goal. If
49:17
Speaker 2: one goes in and it's not nothing now it's only
49:20
Speaker 2: one ball in play.
49:20
Speaker 1: They're like, dang it, that's the fake one. Or they're like,
49:23
Speaker 1: thank god, that's the fake one. Okay, that was thinking
49:25
Speaker 1: the offense.
49:26
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, because the offense could also be confused on
49:29
Speaker 2: which one these How fun would two bad two balls
49:33
Speaker 2: be just for the last five minutes of the game
49:34
Speaker 2: or an extra extra period? Oh, extra time? I like
49:38
Speaker 2: that two balls.
49:40
Speaker 1: That's cool too, because you're encouraging scoring at that point
49:42
Speaker 1: like if it's a tight.
49:43
Speaker 2: Game, like here we go, and the longer it goes
49:45
Speaker 2: no ties, the longer it goes more balls, it's like pinball.
49:49
Speaker 1: Like you said, they keep dropping balls down. Then it's
49:53
Speaker 1: impossible to know which ones which. So now you're just
49:55
Speaker 1: trying to block all the balls, and the announcer too,
49:57
Speaker 1: kid like really playing.
49:58
Speaker 2: To it's two ball times. Yes, it feels like hunger games,
50:04
Speaker 2: So okay, this is what it would be then, because no,
50:06
Speaker 2: I don't like ties, even in the group stage. So
50:08
Speaker 2: they finish. But and the over extra time, no extra time.
50:13
Speaker 2: It's like the time if they're injured or something. Yeah,
50:14
Speaker 2: that's the extra whatever, the stoppage time, what whatever that
50:18
Speaker 2: we'll call it overtime. For as Americans, every minute that
50:21
Speaker 2: goes by, a new ball gets dropped. There are no ties,
50:26
Speaker 2: so there could be like there could be seven balls
50:29
Speaker 2: out there and only one of them is the real one.
50:31
Speaker 2: But you know if the more balls, you don't even
50:32
Speaker 2: know which one is the real one anymore. Real soccer
50:36
Speaker 2: people are like, what's this good talking about? Tell me
50:38
Speaker 2: that one to be fun. That's my banana soccer I create.
50:43
Speaker 2: Do you have any new rules? Uh? Yeah, I would
50:45
Speaker 2: get rid.
50:45
Speaker 1: Of the the fact that the only ball, the ball
50:48
Speaker 1: is the out of bounds, Like if the ball is
50:51
Speaker 1: still touching the line, it's still inbounds. So what is
50:53
Speaker 1: that rule? So really, that's that's the rule, that the
50:57
Speaker 1: ball is the only thing that matters. The person can
50:59
Speaker 1: step out of bounds. But okay, once the ball passes
51:02
Speaker 1: the line, completely passes the line, then it's out.
51:04
Speaker 2: That's the real rule. That's that's the real rule. What
51:06
Speaker 2: would your rule be?
51:07
Speaker 1: Just if the person, like football, you know, like if
51:10
Speaker 1: the person steps out of bounds, turnover, That's what I think,
51:14
Speaker 1: because it's so confusing and then sometimes like you have
51:17
Speaker 1: to look for the whole ball to cross, Like.
51:19
Speaker 2: That's too much.
51:20
Speaker 1: Yeah, we're very American, and the field's already big enough,
51:22
Speaker 1: like you said, it's huge. Maybe double the field, Oh okay,
51:28
Speaker 1: and put four goals with two goalies and and a
51:33
Speaker 1: hole in the middle that serves as a goal, a
51:36
Speaker 1: ground hole that just opened the closes like a mini
51:38
Speaker 1: golf hole like soccer golf. Yeah, that's exactly it. But
51:42
Speaker 1: in the right in the middle half field.
51:45
Speaker 2: Or you do a tall goal like MTV when they
51:47
Speaker 2: would do those, you get more points for the MTV
51:49
Speaker 2: basketball for the high goal. That's worth two if you
51:52
Speaker 2: can get it up there. But it's much smaller. I
51:53
Speaker 2: think you're onto some of them. Yeah, that's my that's
51:55
Speaker 2: my banana ball soccer. That's it. Thank you guys for listening.
51:58
Speaker 2: We hope you have a great weekend. And I don't know,
52:02
Speaker 2: go USA. We don't play againuntil next week. We play
52:05
Speaker 2: Bosnia Herzegovinya.
52:06
Speaker 1: See so is that just Bosnia or is that no,
52:09
Speaker 1: it's Bosnia Herzegovinyak.
52:11
Speaker 2: And I'm not sure if that's one country or two together.
52:13
Speaker 1: Okay, well that's kind of cool. That'd be like Eddie, Bobby,
52:17
Speaker 1: let's just make a team because we're too small countries.
52:19
Speaker 1: If we live next door, we just create one. Yeah yeah, Mike,
