  Speaker 1: I am in Branson, Missouri? Are you there for in Vegas? There?
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: Are you're there for the shows? Are you there to
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: watch a basketball game? No? Tuesday, there's a game in Springfield,
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: Missouri State hosting Murray State. I was just in Carbondale,
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: Illinois Sunday for Bradley went to Southern Illinois. So Branson
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: was a good stopping point for my wife and I
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: didn't go home. He just why does she feel about
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: stay in a hotel for a couple of days and
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: like random parts of America? I think she feels good.
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: I mean, we love Brent and his kids. We've grown
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: up going here with their families and stuff. So this
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: is honestly an awesome vacation for a couple of days.
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: But I did go home and see my brother's basketball
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: game on Friday, so I guess, not home to Oklahoma City,
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: but home to my family. How do you do? Good?
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: They won by thirty. I had him handicapped his two
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: and a half point dogs, so I did not expect
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: that performance. They won by thirty. That's how I know.
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: Coleman is watching his brother play basketball on on like
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: whate for Gibson Vision or whatever that is. However, they
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: uh and you almost want some money because of Coleman, Kevin,
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: that happened. I did. Coleman almost texted you on Saturday
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: because I was on the brink of winning seventy dollars
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: because they use the the your your picks on Saturday
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: that you post on Twitter. You posted what at least
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: ten of them, wasn't there? Yeah? I think I had
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: six team a bunch of them. So I was like,
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: you know what, I'm gonna pick four of them and
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: I don't really know any rhyme or reason other than
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: the one and that one did not hit the oral Robert,
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: did you parlay them? Or did you parlaid them? So
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: I put five dollars on you. T Martin money line,
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: dude hit Duke minus one, hit Sam Houston minus two
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: and a half, hitt Oral Roberts minus thirteen and a half.
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: I picked that one because you were there. I was like,
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: he's gonna be and it didn't happen. But it was
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: so close. No, they got up eighteen right off the
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: bat in the first half, and then the next fifteen
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: minutes they couldn't throw it in the ocean. It was
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: extremely frustrating to watch. I'm sorry you missed your parlay
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: because of it. No, it's all right, man, I was
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: so close Hill invoice. You don't already by the way,
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: coming up all later. Coleman interviews coach Ryan Ritter. At you,
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: t Martin, So you were here from that um, and
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: did you watching the XFL? No? I saw it on,
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: but I'm not I'm not what I'm not a fan
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: of the XFL. I flipped it over. I saw the
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: rock talking. I saw that too, and so then I
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: watched a little bit of it. But then after the
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: game is when I kind of caught up on what
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: had happened. Now I'm gonna mess up the teams because
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: I think St. Louis and Vegas were playing each other.
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: I saw Houston. It could have been the same game,
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: not sure so, but what it happened was they were
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: down by like fifteen points in the fourth and they
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: score a touchdown and then they scored a three point
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: conversion from ten yards out. Because you have a one point,
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: there's no kicking extra points, I don't believe. So there's
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: a one point which is like two or three yards,
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: there's a two point at like five Kevin, tell me
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: if I'm wrong on this at five yards. There's a
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: three point at ten yards, and I think that max
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: is out at three, right, So they went four and
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: they got the three point conversion. Then you don't on
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: side kick. What you do is you get one play.
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: It's basically fourth and fifteen to keep possession, and if
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: you are able to convert a fifteen yard play, you
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: get the ball back. Then they got the ball back,
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: they converted it on the sideline, and they don't winning
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: that game. Yeah, they went down and scored the game.
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: So it's kind of cool that there were all of
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: these possibilities, meaning one, two, or three, we're not kicking
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: on that kick, which it does never work. How once
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: that kicks never work unless it's like a surprise one
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: coming out. You hardly ever see an onside kick that
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: actually turns into wow, thirty two seconds left. They need
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: this to work. That never works out. So the XFL
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: it did. It's pretty cool. It was awesome. And did
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: you see his Ricky Prole's kid and he's remember Ricky Prole,
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: the Rams wide receiver from the Greatest Show on Turf
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: And then his kid was the one that caught in
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: his dad coaching. They're a hugging on the sideline when
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: he wanted. I thought it was cool. Yeah, I don't
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: know who any of those guys are, Like, um A
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: J McCarron, I think was a quarterback from Alabama. Remember
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: I think Mussburgers like can look at his hot wife.
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: They later like I saw him Josh Gordon played it
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: had like almost eight yard receiving. I mean yeah, I
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: thought he was done well. He had so many we charges,
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: I mean I got charged. But like instances in the NFL, Yeah, Cowboys,
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: Benda Nucci good keep him there. So I thought it
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: was interesting. And how that game listen if they do,
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: if a bunch of games happen like this and they
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: keep showing highlights when I'm like, oh, that's cool. I
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: might have to wait in and watch a whole game,
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: but right now, no, again, they've tried this before, didn't work.
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: It didn't work again USFL. None of the stuff is
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: interesting to me, but it can be if they can
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: prove that the products actually kind of exciting to watch.
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: And the Rock is like the like the part owner,
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: part owner and face of the XFL. He is, so,
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: here's the overtime to make it work. He needs what
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: oh yeah, yeah, he seems adamant to make it work.
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: I think so too. I think some of his reputation
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: is I think if it works, it's great for him,
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: and if it doesn't, maybe it's a little bit embarrassing.
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: But the Rock can't make the XFL work by himself,
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: but it does get eyeballs on it. I gotta watched
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: the Rock talk to them and go, hey, look, people
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: counted you out. This is your this is the last
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: chance to make it happen, like, do it here. But
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: they're also a hiding from the fact that if you
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: do well here, maybe you get a shot in the NFL.
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: They're openly going, we want to be the kind of
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: the minor leagues for the NFL, which is probably the
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: way to do it instead of just compete. And if
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: you do have thoughts of competing with the NFL, you
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: can't say it initially because your players aren't going to
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: be as good. You can develop it out and then
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: maybe try to turn it into something. But I don't
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: think that's the goal. But here's some rules XFL overtime.
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: Rather than play a full extra period, each team gets
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: three attempts at a two point conversion from their five.
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: The team with the most conversions after those three attempts
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: as the winner. So you get three shots at it.
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: Let's say you get three and they get too, well,
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: you win. If the score remains tied, then they'll do
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: single possessions. I like that. That sounds the extra point.
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: There are no extra points a one point tries attempted
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: from the five, which we talked about a minute ago.
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: The kickoff, they try to make sure that they're a
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: kickoff returns, Like that's the goal. I like that kick off.
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: What part of it. They're lined up five yards apart,
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: and as soon as the guy catched it and he
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: actually returns it, it's of Now you just get touchbacks
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: all the time. And then they just go out and
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: it's just chaos right there in front of the guy
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: that's carrying the ball. So the two guys are the
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: kicking team in the blockers of the right, not by
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: each other. They just can't hit each other until the
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: guy catches the ball. So what it does is it
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: encourages because their space, it encourages them to return of
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: the ball. Uh, let's see on site kick. We talked
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: about that XFL replay. The XFL will use a centralized
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: replay system. They will be subject to review. Does that
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: mean they're just going up into like New York. Yeah.
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: They had Dean Blandino. They and they even put him
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: on the TV as he's talking the refs through it. Okay,
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: we see this, we see this. Okay, we're gonna call
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: it a catch. Here's why. Here's the yardage. Blah blah blah.
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: Good for him, you're you're round. Job. That's a pretty
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: sweet joy. Pretty So the XFL big win, I would
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: say over the weekend, because we're even talking about it
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: and it was interesting enough to go, Huh, this usually
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: sucks and it only kind of sucks, and there's a
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: chance maybe it doesn't suck all the way anymore. They
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: got to keep those camera zoomed in, though, and they
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: go for the wide shot. It looks really depressing. What
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: do you mean there's no one up that pass? Yeah,
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: when I saw the rock talking there, but it's only
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: like five rows behind him. But you know what, it's okay,
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: you gotta start somewhere. I get it. Yeah, absolutely, I
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: get it. Um. A couple of things I made notes
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: about I was watching the golf tournament this weekend was
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: the Genesis. The Genesis where we were like, well, Tiger
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: make the cut. Tiger played his Day one was awesome,
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: Day two not so much. Um, but well, he missed
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: the cut, and then everyone played so bad in the
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: afternoon that they moved the cut line and he made it.
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: And I was like, dang it, here I am on
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: the podcast, ain't gonna miss it now that dude made it.
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: I don't think anyone expected because the last three holes
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: on the Thursday, I think he birdie, birdie, birdie, which
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: put him in a good spot. Everybody gets so excited
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: about two. It's fun to watch. Yeah, it's like, let's
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: let Tiger. I mean, I'd like to see him one
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: of the major two. That would be cool too, That
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: would be cool I just don't know he's got it
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: in him. Well, if Phil Mickelson can randomly win one
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: at fifty years old, but he's healthy, I hear you.
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: But I think Tiger can probably get healthy ish and
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: fluke one out. I don't think he's gonna win two
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: a year. When we were at Pebble Bones, you remember
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: us walking and after the round and just walking and
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: I was carrying the clubs. You weren't. We were both
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: just like, I'm exhausted man, Like they wanted to go
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: to dinner one night, and we're like, I don't know,
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: I want to go to dinner. I'm tired. But to
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: be fair, I did carry the clubs the fourth day
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: we played and then but day three neither one of
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: us carry the club We had a caddy carrying your
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: clubs too, but we offered to carry. We're all tired
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: every day. So still for Tiger to do that, you know,
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: like four rounds in a row, that's just tough on
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: someone that's like I got a really messed up leg.
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: What I liked about that tournament, though, was more Cowa.
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: He had an air pod in and he was commentating
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: for like an hour as he was playing. Did you
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: watch it, do you see anything that? So he had
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: he had one of the just in one ear and
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: he driving like, oh yeah, but the announcer we're talking
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: with him. It was like you know when they go
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: between like the fourth inning and they'll go down now
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: and yeah, the manager like the second though, us send
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: him on a third double squeeze. But they were doing
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: that more called the whole time, and so for like
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: I don't know how long it lasted. I saw him
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: for like three holes talking the whole time, and it
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: was like, you know, I think I'm gonna use a
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: hybrid here too, because right off the green instead of
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: a putter, and it's like super interesting. The audio quality
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: wasn't the best. It was almost like coming here with
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: this computer, we're trying to get a mic working for
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: like three days. So bones, so is this like I mean,
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: obviously when Live came around, p GA was like, oh,
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: we gotta change things up a little bit. You think
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: that's like a product of something where they're like, we
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: gotta Well what I said initially was lives awesome because
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: it's gonna make the p g A have to be
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: better of fire. It's going to They had no competition
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: and until you have competition, why you've been competing that
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: hard you're winning. Even if you think you're working hard,
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: you're probably not working as hard as you would be
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: if someone was pressing. Yeah, and that's what's happening now.
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: Live just signed a TV deal also with like CW
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: or one of those fat it sure, I mean it's nowhere.
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: We haven't been able to watch talk it's all. I
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: mean I watched it on TikTok. Some you watch like
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: Bryce Bryson yell at someone. But I thought that they
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: had him, uh just talking with the announcers the whole time.
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: And then also he would do it because you know,
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: those guys get into the rhythms and they probably want
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: to focus in between shots. And but he was just
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: he was just cool. And he was like in third
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: place while it was happening. It wasn't like he was
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: way out of it. I don't think he ended up
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: winning the tournament. I didn't even watch John Romdd. I
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: didn't even watch the end of it. I was too
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: busy not watching the XTFL watch that. Do you have
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: an announcement here a the first time we've said anything
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: about this. But next week on Thursday and Friday. Not
• 11:36

• 11:47
  Speaker 1: the details about where you can watch if you want
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: to watch. But I am I'm super excited. Don't get
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: excited about much anymore. I feel a bit jaded because
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: they realized most of the stuff he thinks cool really
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: isn't that cool. But I'm super This is super cool
• 11:57

• 13:17
  Speaker 1: great for them, But that's four grand a day a day,
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: I'm saying, and then taxes. But the point is I
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: just wanted to know, is any about the money. Don't
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: it to the animals. I don't need the money. That's
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: a good move too. Yeah, it's not a good move.
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: I don't need the money. I'm doing pretty good. So
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: it's like, donate that to the animals, and maybe later
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: if if I come back and do it again, then
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: you know, I probably I'm getting honest selfish anymore. So
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: I'm yeah, I'm super excited about that. Hopefully I don't
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: screw it up. Did you watch Coleman? I know, because
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: you're on the road, traveled all these games. Did you
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: watch any of or any basketball at all that wasn't
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: a game that you were driving to or talking about.
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: I wasn't able to watch a ton this weekend, but
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: definitely able to tune in on scores. UM thought, you know,
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: Tennessee see after the big win at Bama then or
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: against Bama, then to for that offense to look so
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: poor against Kentucky. Kentucky got a much needed win. Kansas
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: and Baylor UM Baylor out to that thirteen point lead
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: at halftime to then get dominated give up fifty five
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: second half points Kansas to come back and win by
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: double figures. Those were a couple that stuck out to me,
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: how about you. I watched the Alabama Tennessee game. I
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: lost a lot of money on it because at the
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: beginning of the game Kentucky Tennessee. No, not Kentucky Tennessee.
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: I watched Alabama. Was that the Thursday? Hold on, let
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: me just look at it. Let me just look at
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: how much money you're gonna go back to Wednesday? I
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: think it was Wednesday. Hold on, No, it's I maybe
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: saying the wrong games. Lets look at drive kings here.
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: Let me talk this whole music as a pull up
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: my account, I give my face, I d okay boom,
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: I'm thinking of Kentucky Tennessee Saturday. Yeah. Anyway, So at
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: the and he had left over from a Super Bowl
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: because I took it and put it on the county,
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: and I had like six hundred bucks of like play money,
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: and I was like, I'm taking the play money Tennessee
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: plus one and a half. And I was like, there's
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: no way they lose this to Kentucky. Arkansas whooped Kentucky
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: and Tennessee. I've been playing lights out, lights out man,
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: the Kobe, that's Kobe. How don't you changed his name
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: every year? Howady says it and so, but they ended
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: up getting they It was never. I never thought I
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: was gonna win the money. I lost it from the beginning.
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: It was stupid, stupid game I ever seen in my life.
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: I thought that was free money. I loaded up plus
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: one and I went again at like plus nine. I'm like,
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: this is this is plus nine Tennessee. Oh never, Yeah,
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: I can't tell you to do that one, buddy, No,
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: no you didn't. It was all me. It's a typical Tennessee.
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: When you look up in oak Tennessee lost. Let me guess,
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: did they score in the fifties? Oh yeah, that's right,
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: just when when they struggled to score. Um that they
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: lose a lot of basketball games. And that's the case
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: I did. Okay, so here here we go. Oh it's
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: more than I said. It was like eight hundred bucks.
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, he um yeah. So here was the actual
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: bet I saw. I was. I was a little bit wrong.
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: It was Tennessee minus one and a half when it
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: went off, and I thought, well, that's easy money. And
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: they were in Kentucky, but Arkansas to to Kentucky and
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: we crushed them. It was a nine o'clock game. Althought, okay,
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: this Hey, what what is Vegas note? Idiots? Yeah, I
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: lost my butt. It was sixty four eight hundred bucks
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: on that one. But now I'm out of money pretty much.
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: That I because I took seventy hundred that I won
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: from the Super Bowl put on my account, and then
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: I had like eight hundred in my account a little
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: fuzzy math here that I won that I was just
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: gonna use to play with. And now I'm almost out
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: of that. So I'm almost back to not even because
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: I took money away. But anyway, Yeah, I have the
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: Lakers to make the playoffs. I just bet that one.
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: It went off at plus one eighty, so I bet
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: a hundred and fifty bucks that wins four twenty If
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: they make the playoffs, I can cash out right now
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: for in TWENTI seven. Um, so I'm probably not gonna
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: do that. You're not a cash out guy. No. I
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: do have Arkansas win the n C Double A tournament.
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: I bet fifty bucks to win thousand, but I can
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: cash out for five dollars right now. So, but I
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: did watch a lot of that game, going, how is
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: this real? How is Kentucky winning this game? Whenever I've
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: watched Kentucky played like six times this year. I think
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: Kentucky is in a good spot now to make the tournament.
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: I think Arkansas Kentucky played the last game for both
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: of us in Arkansas. And I don't know that it's
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: because Joel and Artid is gonna be on the show
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: Friday coming up, and I don't know that it's gonna
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: be down to that one game, but definitely could be
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: if these teams don't win some of these games they
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: have to win. I thought after Kentucky lost to Georgia,
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: I was like, oh man, they are in trouble. But
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: then to pick up those two wins this week Mississippi
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: State Tennessee. Massive. I mean crazy that we're talking about
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: Kentucky needing to get wins to make then ce a tournament,
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: not being a one or two seed. But that's the
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: situation we're in. You know, Kevin, you should get in
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: with us, Coleman too. But we do this. It's not
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: really a league. Who I love it. I've already been
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: thinking about it. Well, you didn't respond. I got hit
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: up by Mike Signs going. Eddie is the only one
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: who hasn't responded respond to what? Well, let me just
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: say if I mean, guys, there's different ways to get
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: a hold of me. Text is a good one, but
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: you don't think it's I have to send something to
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: the group chat and then I have to copy and
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: pass in Eddie as well, which is stupid. Let me answer, guys,
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: this is amazing, Like I didn't see this email the calcutta. Yeah, calcata,
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: that's not what's not what's called? Okay, so if he calls,
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: let me see it. Called me back. But we do
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: a calcutta. And why I bring it up as Kentucky
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: lost me a lot of money last year because I
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: had all the teams go up in the auction them off.
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: Some teams go for twelve bucks. The number one seeds
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: are pretty they go pretty expensive. But I bought Kentucky
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: as a two I think last year, and they lost
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: like the second round, and I've spent so much money
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: on them. It just, I mean crushed me. So we
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: do it again. I think we gonna do it like
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: the Wednesday after selections on day and we all get
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: on Zoom and you know, there's not a set amount
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: of what you have to bring. You can buy no
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: teams if you want, but you can buy it go
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: it spins on a Wheelboom boom. Oh well they're a
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: one seed, all right, Let's the bidding start at twenty bucks.
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: And sometimes those teams get up pretty expensive, but sometimes
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: you can get a six or seven and if they
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: win a couple of games, you make a lot of money.
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: Let's be real. That's where it's apt for us boys,
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: like we need to pick the one those those dark horses. Yes,
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: because that that if you want to number one, get
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: out of here. You gotta bring a lot of money
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: to the table. And maybe I can add some help
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: on the twelve of the sixteen seeds for you all. Well,
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: here's the deal. You buy the thirteen to sixteen or
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: maybe twelve to sixteen. Yeah, they're in a group. You
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: buy them as a group, so there are four groups.
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: You buy of those, because we don't want to sit
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: there in auction off every sixteen seed. So you buy
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: it's other twelve or thirteen up to sixteen. And if
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: any of them win, which last year that happened And yeah,
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: I think Matt Stell or somebody who bought that group,
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: they beat Kentucky. Stupid st Peter's ruined your Kentucky Peter's
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: so Coleman, if you want to be in Kevin, if
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: you want to be a might dy, if you want
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: to be in Mighty's not a big gambler. Yeah, pounds
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: right up my alley. We'll we'll get it and we'll
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: auction it up everybody. Eddie, I'm in. I just didn't
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: see the email. The only person they said didn't respond
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: was you and Ben Rector that we're busy because its
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: been was a disneylane with a kid all week. That
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: doesn't mean you can't respond to a check. Um. Okay,
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: what I want to do now is I want to
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: go over to Coleman's interview with Ryan Ritter Uh, the
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: U T. Martin head coach. Coleman. Where did you do
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: the interview? I did the interview with just him in
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: his office at the stadium. Did you feel like they
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: treated you nice? Was it cool? Everything good? Incredibly well? Yes,
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: they set me up right at half court press row
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: um for the game and then took me up to
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: allow me to talk to him for twenty minutes, about
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: ten minutes off air and then ten minutes you'll you'll
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: hear in the interview, but just down to earth, genuine guy,
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: really enjoyed, even coach Ritter and wished their team nothing
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: but success. I've seen six of the ten Ohio Valley
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: Conference teams, and I think with their guard trio, you
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: T Martin, maybe the best of them. Did they win
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: the night you were there? Yes, they did, won by six,
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: but high scoring game, a lot of fun. Is it
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: one of those things where you were going for a
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: while everybody was losing when you were going, Oh my gosh,
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: I went on, Well, not everyone was losing the game outright.
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: I lost ten straight live covers, consecutive live cover I
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: mean that's almost mathematically impossible. Curse. Yeah, No, it was
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: absolutely a thing. What made it the worst was when
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: I went to Colgate. It was kind of my original
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: team that I've been following the most. I've gone to
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: five of their games. They were on a twenty six
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: game Patriot League winning streak. Up by fourteen in the
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: second half. Me there, that was the tenth consecutive loss.
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: They end up blowing that lead in the second half,
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: and Louise and I was like, I gotta get away
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: from the teams I love. I'm I'm hurting them too much. Well,
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: you T. Martin did win so this is all good.
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: Here's Coleman with with coach Ritter. He breaks the curse here.
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: Enjoy the interview here with head coach of Tennessee, Martin
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: Ryan Ritter. Thank you so much, coach for allowing the
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: time to talk to you today. Um, first off, I
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: just want to get started in what got you into coaching? Um?
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: Your did your dad have any influence from that? Yeah? Obviously,
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: you know, as a young kid, I want to grow,
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: I want to play in the NBA, played professional basketball
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: and unfortunately realized, you know, pretty early on, I probably
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: aren't gonna be able to play for the entirely of
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: my career. So obviously, you know, wanted to have an
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: opportunity to impact young people. And Um, growing up in
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: a coaching household, right, you know, kind of had an
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: opportunity to see what coaching was all about. And and
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: not just my dad, but my mom being a teacher
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: as well, kind of influenced me into coaching. What is
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: one thing that you've taken from your dad and the
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: way he coaches that you've implemented into your style or
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: your team. Well, it's a good question because everyone always
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: asked me that, and I think they're expecting like an
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: X and O answer it. Um. The one thing about
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: my dad, he's very genuine. UM, he's genuine relationships, he's real. Um,
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: he doesn't shoot her code things. He cares about young people.
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: And so I think when you're the thing that I
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: would take away from him, a lot of different things,
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: but if you've broken into one is just um, you know,
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: treating people genuinely and um, when you're building a program.
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: I think especially young people, UM, they can decipher what's real,
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: they can decipher what's not. UM. People you work with
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: the same you know kind of deal. So UM, just
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: treating people the way you'd want to be treated. Being
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: a kid from Lexington, Kentucky, you get the opportunity to
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: get this job. What did that mean? Landing that? Being
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: being able to say, having Division one coach in my
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: home state. It's uh, it's funny, you know. Obviously, so
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: I grew up. I was born in western Kentucky, but
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: that was a coach of Bria College assistant at that time. Um,
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: and all his families from northern Kentucky. So we have
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: major Kentucky roots. But I actually moved to Florida when
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: I was five years old. And uh, you know, I
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: grew up in the playing baseball in Sunshine and Beach
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: and UM, but yet basketball was rooted and what we
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: you know, our entire families. You know, my brothers playing,
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: my sister played, is just kind of what we did
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: on Wednesday night. We're driving three hours to go catch
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: college basketball game. UM. But the opportunity, obviously with we
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: would be back in Kentucky one, two, three times a
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: year to see family, see friends, and so to coach
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: in the OVC. UM. It's a group, it's a league
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: that I grew up knowing, although I may have grown
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: up from Florida. To be back at this level is
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: really special. This year, entering this season with Murray State
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: and Belmont leaving, was that something for you and your
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: team that you felt, Okay, the conference is more wide open? Yeah.
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: I think. You know, at the end of the day,
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: every you know, team that puts on the jersey their
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: expectation and and and goals. It could be for conference championship.
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: And I don't think that changes anywhere I leave. You're
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: in high school, I junior college Division three, Division eight team,
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: I think you put on the jersey to try to
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: compete for a championship, and um, obviously those two guys
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: Murray and Belmont have had great success in this league,
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: and so I think this league is looking for someone, um,
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: you know, to continue that that dominance that I think
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: every on not just U T. Martin, but I think
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: everyone looks at it. Hey, this is an opportunity to
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: to kind of step in and compete right away. And
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: in doing that, you all have already doubled your win
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: total from last year. Here we are just in mid February.
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: What do you credit that success this year too? I
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: think there's two main things. Um, we did a heck
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: of a job retaining our players from last year. Although
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: you know we were you know what was eight and
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: twenty two. We had a tough, tough road, Um, you know,
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: win loss wise, but we said a great foundation. You
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: know everyone talks about culture, Well we we did that.
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: We had a great culture even when we won, when
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: we lost, like that was a great group of dudes
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: that were understanding they were ability something bigger than themselves
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: and so were retained. We brought back nine guys that
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: that's a lot of guys in the trans report. And
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: then on top of that, we brought an impact transfers.
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: You know, we've got um, you know, our starting lineup
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: right now, we's got three guys in it. We've got um,
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: you know, four guys that that are newcomers that are
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: playing minutes, major minutes for us. So, UM, the ability
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: to retain that that the current guys we thought could
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: help us continue to build forward as well as um
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: at impact guys, and those dudes are gelling and I
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: think we're hopefully canna play our best basketball here down
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: the stretch. It's great, um seeing that the standings are
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: tied eight and six. You want tied second. It's also
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: the same place as sixth place in seven is just
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: the game behind you given that double by being so
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: crucial in the OVC tournament, Is that something you all
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: are talking about in your locker room or more taking
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: one game at a time. I mean, I would hope
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: that everyone's gonna tell you, hey, we're taking one game
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: at a time, because if you're looking forward, you know,
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: it's just it's it's gonna be a tough, tough stretch
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: for you. But um, all these people have access to
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: social media, you know, so anything we have to address
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: the elephant. Hey, guys, that's where we are, We're we're
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: in a great situation. We're still controlling your own destiny
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: right now. And as of today, we can finish first,
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: we can finish eight. There's a lot of room with
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: just a little bit of a season left, and that's
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: a pressure that we gotta embrace. And you know, tonight
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: at s i u E. UM, you know what is
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: a Saturday of the Tennessee Tech. Like, We've got to
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: focus on what we can control and if we win tonight, great,
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: and then we're gonna strap it up tomorrow. We're gonna
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: try to get better. We're gonna try to get better Saturday. Um.
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: But my full belief is when we're healthy, we're a
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: really good team. Uh, we're a really good team and
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: we're healthy. We've tripped up a couple when we were
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: missing a couple of guys, um, But at the end
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: of the day, we've gotten better from November seven until now,
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: and I think our group believes that. I think we're
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: proun to play our best basketball. That's great. Um. The
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: structure of the OVC tournament a team double by to
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: get eliminated. Do you like that? Given that we see
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: all these different conference tournaments, some of them, you know,
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: do campus sites. Others don't do the buys at all.
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: What would you like to see or do you like it?
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: Alex currently, Um, let's be transparent about Division one basketball.
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: You know, there's really only about eleven leagues that traditionally
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: are getting two teams in the tournament. The league's twelve
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: or thirty two, we're all fighting for the same thing.
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: We're fighting for for one bid. And I do like
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: what the OVC does. I think they reward the guys
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: that have had a great regular season. I think you
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: want to put your best team in the tournament, and
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: I think the way that the tournament is structured UM
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: gives an advantage to the top seats, which I believe.
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: You know, obviously injuries can happen and maybe have a
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: team that's playing really well but had missed a couple
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: of guys during the course of the year. But at
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: the end of the day, I do like what the
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: OBC does. I think it's right to award UM those
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: top seeds with with an easier path through the tournament. Yeah, Um,
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: your team right now, do you feel like, man, we're
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: really playing our best basketball. We're starting to peak at
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: the right time. Given that you know, in twenty one
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: of the conferences, you have to be playing your best
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: basketball and marks that's all that really matters in terms
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: of making the dance. Yeah, I think it's funny if
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: you ask this two weeks ago. You know, we've won
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: four and a rowing man, we're we're rolling well. Then
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: you go on the road and you lose three in
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: a row, um, and then you find a way to
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: play really well at home this this past game. So
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: I think our guys are fully confident in what we're doing.
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: Especially uh, you know, we're almost fully healthy. I think
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: we're a week away from getting everybody back. But I
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: know that locker room believes that when we're playing our
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: best basketball, Um, we're as good as any team in
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: this league. Into that. What's something that you see on
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: film or throughout the flow of the game and you're like, man,
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: if we're doing this well, we're tough to beat, we're
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: gonna win this conference. Well, I think that you can
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: look at all the analytics and kim palm like, when
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: we're tied in defensively, we're pretty tough to be. Um,
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: we're gonna find a way to put enough points on
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: the board. Um, you know, not that we're this steamrolling
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: offensive unit, but we got enough individual talent where you
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: could put points on the board. We are the defensive
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: unit that I that we showed to be through most
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: parts of conference. Um, you know, it's really difficult to
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: score on us, and that kind of carries us through. Okay, Um,
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: with Parker in kJ having such a talented tandem at
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: the back court, what has that been like this year
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: getting the coach you know, a tandem like that that's
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: not elite? Yeah, well, I think the first thing is
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: they're like best friends, so you know, I think you worked. Yeah,
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: you know, they live together, they hang out all the time.
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: So I think sometimes when you bring in super talented guys,
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: you know, you got to make sure that they fit.
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: And obviously their games show that they would fit. Ones
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: a little bit more driver one was a little bit
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: more shooter, but the personalities have to fit and and
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: those two guys have seamlessly, uh fit together, and they've
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: also helped our group grow together. Um. You know I've
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: kind of said it earlier when when you know Jordan's
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: sears um kJ Simon or partner Stewart when they've missed games. Um,
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: you know, we've we've tripped up. What we lost four
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: games in games that one of those guys hasn't played.
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: When those three guys are collectively together, um, you know,
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: it's it's it's pretty special. You know. Obviously those two
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: guys lead us and then Jordan having a great sophomore year.
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: Those are three guys that are there are three the
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: better players in this league right thirdteen and one at home?
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: Obviously massive home game tonight. What do you credit that
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: home success to that you all have been able to relishame? Well,
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: I always say this, our dudes love to hoop like
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: they love basketball. So they work in here all the time,
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: Like they get individual time in here, way more outside
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: of our practice time than then's required. And so when
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: that thing tips up with the lights on, they're so
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: comfortable being in that arena. Uh, there's just second nature
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: and there just happens to be people. There's happens to
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: be a game going. But those dude have spent so
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: many hours in that arena. I think that's really the
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: big reason why we feel great at home. Okay, last question,
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: pregame dinner or pregame music you what do you like
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: to eat or do you listen to anything before. Um So,
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: I'm not super picky on pregame. They're like to put
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: something in my stomach before. But uh, a big big
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: Brian Kelly beach cowboy guy from the hometown or beach, Florida.
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: So usually get a little jam with him and there
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: might be a little party on the beach. I'd be
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: made by the waters cousin moon On man in my
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: head right now, I'm ready to go there you go. Well,
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: thank you so much for your time, coach. I really
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: appreciate it. Best of luck to you all this season
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: and hope you can punch your ticket to the big Dance.
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: Appreciate you, man, Thanks, thank you. All right, that was
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: Coleman with coach Ryan Ritter. Colman. Where are you gonna
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: be this week? What games are you going to? Um So,
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: let's see. Tomorrow I will be at Missouri State playing
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: Murray State, and then Wednesday, I think I've called an audible.
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: I think I'm gonna continue to get some Missouri Valley
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: action and go to Indiana State at Belmont. Thursday, I'll
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: be at you u AB hosting Rice. Friday. A little
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: up in the air, but I may go to Troy
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: Coastal Carolina and then Saturday a Stanford Ferman in a
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: massive game for the regular season championship in the SoCon Conference.
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: So he'll be here for Bilmont. Yeah, So he texted me,
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: I was gonna reach a text he sent me, I've
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: never met Coleman real life. Do you guys realized that? Right?
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: This whole thing happened because I was watching his brother
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: play on TV with Caitlin's families from Fort Gibson and
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: they were like they're still big and they're like, oh yeah,
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: and they told me coleman story, and then we brought
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: him on because I thought it was hilarious. They did
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: a science for a project. They basically kicked him out
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: of school for gambling, and then Draft Kings like do
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: you want to extend into basketball? And I'm like, yeah,
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: but I would like to have a basketball expert on
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: with me. And watched a lot of basketball, but like
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: Coleman's living it, he couldn't find an expert. So he
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: used me. Yes, And so that's it. I've never actually
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: met Coleman in real life except for this. And so
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: he texts me this morning while we're on the air,
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: and this is the first thing he says, just to
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: show you how we've never met. He goes, hey, Boby,
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: are you based in Nashville? Wow? So, um, that's that's
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: how close we are in real life. Um. He says
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: he's gonna pivot a schedule, la la la, and let's
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: say you're gonna So there's a possibility you could be
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: here Thursday. Yes, yeah, because that game is Wednesday night,
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: so I'd stay in Nashville. It's not that far drive
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: to Birmingham for my Thursday games, so I could be
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: in studio if available. So the question is like, if
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: he walks in and he looks all weird and he's
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: like the romance is gone, right? Or do we want
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: him in studio? So maybe I should stay on something.
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: Is he cat fishing us? That's another question we have
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: to wonder. It's like, so, Mike, yeah, let's just have
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: comen on Thursday. I was thinking of never meeting him. Never, right, Never.
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: The mystery kind of leaves it even better. If you're
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: gonna be here Thursday, it is. And if you're so,
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: what about that Monday? Are you coming back up through Nashville? Yeah,
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: so I want to be at the first conference tournament game. Um.
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: So the Atlantic Sun is the first conference to have
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: a conference tournament, will be and so um, either Lipscomb
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: or Bellarman should get a home conference turn that game.
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: So I'll either be in Louisville or in Nashville, and
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: so I'll be able to be in studio Monday. Well,
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: there we go, and he can be here for the
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: Joe Lenardi interview on Thursday. Right, yeah, yes, we recorded.
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: Then that show goes up Friday. Okay, cool. It's kind
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: of a hero of mine, so that'd be awesome. Oh, dude,
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: you should talk some major crap and we'll get it.
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: We're gonna fight with each other, viral act like a
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: better bracketologist, talk about the times you've out predicted him. Okay, um, okay,
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: thanks to the whole staff there at you T Martin
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: for helping us out Matt McClung. And so get this.
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: One of my friends is Matt. Matt McClung's brother in
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: law who won the Dunk Contest, who Texas basketball player?
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah wait, I don't understand. Did you watch any of
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: the Dunk Contest? Did you watch anything? I know you
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: watched the All Star Game, but did you not see
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: McClung when they dunk contest. Oh, it's the greatest dunk
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: contest victory in twenty years by far. Well, then come on,
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: give me the story. Well, the story is he was
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: out of his mind. He's a little He's just a
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: little white guy who's played g league, who's played uh
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: summer ball, who hasn't quite caught a team. He I
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: think it was the Philadelphia now think he played in
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: the b A for a second, but I knew what
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: Texas Tech. But my one of my friends who is
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: a golfer, Nolan right, his wife is mccluck brother sister.
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: So random, it's so random. But he goes in, did
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: you watch the don contest? Yeah? Do you watch They
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: likes the clips of because I don't watch it live. Yeah,
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: I watched the whole thing replay, but I saw the
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: clips too. Wasn't he wasn't it? He was out on
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: mindan he would go viral back in high school for dunking.
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: And then when he played a Techi annoyed the crap
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: out of me because they were good and I played.
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: He played for Beard at Tech. We did not play
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: for Tech. He did for you. But he started at Georgetown, right,
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: so I only know it from Tech because we played
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: Beard at Tech and they almost beat us, and mcluck
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: played and I wanted to punch him in the face
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: because that's the guy you want playing on your team.
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: But if he's not, it's like Pat Bev. I'm big Pat,
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: bad guy. But if Patt was playing against me but
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: hates his guts. But so mcclun coleman, did you watch
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: any of the Cliffs and the Don contest? No? I didn't,
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: but I've seen everyone you know hyping up Mac and
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: his performance greatest greatest contest for the winner in twenty years.
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: As long as you're watching upset it mostly you don't care,
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: and you're like, we've seen these dunks ten thousand times.
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: He did a three sixty plus another half dunk he
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: did like a four twenty is just go watch your sign.
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: That's will make it even better, like and he's up there,
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: up there. So McClung wins and dunk contest pretty cool.
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: I watched a little bit the All Star Game. Terrible.
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: It's terrible, um because they're having fun though, I mean
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: I agree, and Tatum scored like sixty points. It was
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: m VP, But they don't play defense. Obviously until the
• 36:33
  Speaker 1: very end there's no defense, but even then it's it's
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: it's almost unwatchable. And then what's the draft? Like they
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: know their team right? No, but now they didn't anybody
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: to not get picked last. So the the sensitivity was,
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: let's not pick an All Star have them being picked last. Okay,
• 36:49
  Speaker 1: so the reserves were announced first, so nobody got picked last,
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: and then they basically picked the starters. So somebody pick
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: lat Yeah, somebody always gets last, no matter how you
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: do it. Guys, also stop being a whip. Who cares
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: you're an All Star I being picked last. I think
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: we're realizing some of these NBA players are both their
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: whole life, they've never been picked last because they've been
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: the greatest of the great and so but I want it.
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: I would rather watch that The last night in the
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: Pro Bowl how it used to be. Yeah, because at
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: least I turned this on to watch some fun dunks.
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: Then I was like, Okay, I'm done. But the probol
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: football problem was terrible. They should just again, they should
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: not have anything. There's no skills. No, you've just made
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: the Pro Bowl team. Congratulations, that's it. Collect your bonus
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: you had in your contract. Because the Pro Bowl was
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: super unwatchable. This one was kind of watchable. Baseball All
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: Star Game somewhat watchable. And it gets down to it
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: because you know, the World Series is going to be
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: in the the side of the National League of the
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: americ leage whoever wins the All Star Game. So I
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: don't know how they make it matter, like we kill
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: somebody from the losing team. But that that was. That
• 37:58
  Speaker 1: was basically the weekend and nominate Kyrie. Since Kyrie and
• 38:05
  Speaker 1: Luca have been playing together their oh and three, it's
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: almost like they don't know what my grandma used to say.
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: It's like a cut bear handle on his Peter for
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: the first time, like figuring it out. Those two together,
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: it looks really awkward because they both played with the
• 38:18
  Speaker 1: ball the whole time, and they're both kind of like,
• 38:22
  Speaker 1: don't it ain't good. There's too many cooks in the kitchen, man.
• 38:24
  Speaker 1: And I think they'll I'm glad. I'm still glad they
• 38:26
  Speaker 1: did it. I think this will turn. They'll figure it out.
• 38:29
  Speaker 1: There was going to be some pains with growing pains
• 38:31
  Speaker 1: with this, but and Cole, when you can speak on
• 38:33
  Speaker 1: this too, I just don't think Dallas had a shot
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: to win more than one series if they didn't try something,
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: and they get to keep Luca Lucas there and they're
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: showing him they're trying things, and if it doesn't work
• 38:44
  Speaker 1: with Kyrie, he's out anyway, because it's not like they
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: signed him to a big, old fat deal. He's playing
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: basically four months the rest of the season. So I
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: still like it. They're oh in three and it looks
• 38:53
  Speaker 1: it looks terrible hit with them. What I do in
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: the NBA two K is, well, I got we're playing
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: nine ease and our franchise, and I got Stockton and
• 39:02
  Speaker 1: Mark Price. I see your five and oh and so
• 39:07
  Speaker 1: what I do is I'll start on both and start
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: Price as the two guard. But then I'll just shift
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: and have a point guard that they're both playing point
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: interested the most part, Well, somebody's get little rest. You know.
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: Maybe I need to call and share with Cuban my
• 39:21
  Speaker 1: strategy that I play on about this. Yeah, no, I thought, um.
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: I respected the move by Cuban to say to Luca, hey,
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: we're gonna provide you with enough talent to be good
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: enough to win a championship. Now, what could happen down
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: the line? From that, as we've seen Kyrie lack commitment
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: for an extended period of time, that could be devastating
• 39:40
  Speaker 1: for Dallas. But right now I respect the move trying
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: to go win a championship. You've already seen the too
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: many cooks in the kitchen already. I don't remember who
• 39:47
  Speaker 1: they are playing, but at the very last possession, we're
• 39:50
  Speaker 1: Luca and Kyrie are passing it back and forth to
• 39:52
  Speaker 1: one another and they don't even get a shot off
• 39:54
  Speaker 1: when they were down three trying to tie that game up. Um. So,
• 39:57
  Speaker 1: definitely gonna have to get the chemistry figured out and tough.
• 40:01
  Speaker 1: With only what less than or thirty games something like
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: that remaining in the regular season before we get to
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: play off time, they need to either throw two balls
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: out there at the same time there's a last second shot,
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: they shoot both their bays confused, or they both played
• 40:12
  Speaker 1: they have four hands on and they shoot it together
• 40:14
  Speaker 1: because they both aren't the ball at the end there.
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: Uh so, but yeah, oh, in three since they've been
• 40:20
  Speaker 1: able to play together, do you want to call Mike
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: science Eddie about to try it again more time? He said?
• 40:25
  Speaker 1: Is he teaching? Is he working right now? He's a
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: class now by teaching. He's a college instructor, which you'll
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: never believe by hearing him talk. I still don't believe.
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: I've known him for how many years? Oh hey, we're talking.
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: You're on air, but we're talking about the Calcutta Yeah,
• 40:41
  Speaker 1: Eddie said he didn't know anything about it. But he's in.
• 40:45
  Speaker 1: He didn't know anything about it, That's what I said
• 40:47
  Speaker 1: to I was like, bro, what did he email me?
• 40:48
  Speaker 1: What do you do? Yes, he emailed all of us.
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: Tell him to text to me, he said, text him, okay,
• 40:55
  Speaker 1: and then kick off, Kevin, I think once in and
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: so does Coleman. Yes, give me their emails and I'll
• 41:01
  Speaker 1: send them the details. Do you have with you? Like
• 41:03
  Speaker 1: what the teams went for last year? By any chance? Ah? Yeah?
• 41:08
  Speaker 1: Pulled up real quick. I'll come back to you one second.
• 41:09
  Speaker 1: So stay there, Okay, we'll come back. There's that way
• 41:12
  Speaker 1: you can get a feeler. I don't remember. I'm curious
• 41:15
  Speaker 1: to know what I paid. I remember you paid a
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: lot of money last year. Hold on, I'm gonna put
• 41:20
  Speaker 1: you on mute. Micael back in just a second, Bobby,
• 41:23
  Speaker 1: I've got a Tennessee Martin story for you that you're
• 41:25
  Speaker 1: in trouble about when you've got the time, the time
• 41:28
  Speaker 1: right now? No, no better time, right now? Go ahead? Yeah.
• 41:31
  Speaker 1: Do you remember a doctor Robert Richard Robinson from Henderson State.
• 41:36
  Speaker 1: You're a professor there. I don't know. So he's at
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: Tennessee Martin. Now. He claims that he sent you two
• 41:44
  Speaker 1: of his books. He's very proud of you sent you
• 41:47
  Speaker 1: two of sorry your books to get autographed and sent
• 41:51
  Speaker 1: back to him, and he never got him returned to him.
• 41:53
  Speaker 1: You kept the books Bones. I don't know where he
• 41:55
  Speaker 1: sent them. I've moved like three times. He probably sent
• 41:58
  Speaker 1: him to the to the wrong address, but he's upset
• 42:00
  Speaker 1: with you for it. Do you do you have his
• 42:03
  Speaker 1: address by any chance? Um? I have his business card
• 42:06
  Speaker 1: right here, so I can give you his contact info.
• 42:08
  Speaker 1: I would just say what books are they? And then
• 42:10
  Speaker 1: I'll find him and will mail him to him. Perfect.
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: How did he track you down? How did that happen?
• 42:14
  Speaker 1: At the game? So they had like at um my
• 42:18
  Speaker 1: press row thing It says like Bobby Bones show or
• 42:21
  Speaker 1: Whistles or something like that. So somehow he saw my
• 42:24
  Speaker 1: name on press row and was like, Okay, what's your
• 42:26
  Speaker 1: relation to Bobby? That's awesome? Let's try to find another
• 42:31
  Speaker 1: game or something to set him up. This week, he
• 42:33
  Speaker 1: seemed fantastic. He was so nice. Okay, Mike, are you there? Okay,
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: So we're gonna do the Calcutta Draft on that Wednesday
• 42:43
  Speaker 1: after selection Sunday? Right, yeah, okay? And how much will
• 42:47
  Speaker 1: you look at see how much I paid for Kentucky
• 42:49
  Speaker 1: last year? For me to lose all that money? Kentucky?
• 42:51
  Speaker 1: You spend two and thirty one team? Yeah, I really
• 42:57
  Speaker 1: felt like they were gonna win it all? And how
• 42:58
  Speaker 1: much did I? How much did I make? Let's see,
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: let me go to the tracker, Bobby, you spent um
• 43:05
  Speaker 1: six hundred and eighteen dollars total and you won too.
• 43:12
  Speaker 1: I lost. I like how you put that though the
• 43:15
  Speaker 1: Kentucky team crushed to me. Now I think I might
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: have spent more than everybody else. Did I spend more?
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: Did I go all in the most? No? Matt still
• 43:23
  Speaker 1: got you on the proxy bids? Okay? So, and then
• 43:26
  Speaker 1: what would like a number one? I didn't buy any
• 43:28
  Speaker 1: number one? What did number ones go for last year?
• 43:30
  Speaker 1: We got um? Let's see, Arizona went for two five,
• 43:35
  Speaker 1: number one seed of the South. Gonzago went to ninety
• 43:41
  Speaker 1: Baylor number one, he went to six and Kansas the winner.
• 43:46
  Speaker 1: I went for two thirty five, So the cheapest of
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: the one seeds up winning it all. So if they
• 43:51
  Speaker 1: played two, they pay to thirty five for Kansas. Last year,
• 43:54
  Speaker 1: what did Kansas end up winning? Because every game you win,
• 43:57
  Speaker 1: the value goes up per game. Kansas ended up winning
• 44:01
  Speaker 1: a total of two dollars. That is quite the investments. Yeah,
• 44:07
  Speaker 1: so what about like a five or six seed, how
• 44:09
  Speaker 1: much do they go do they go for one average?
• 44:12
  Speaker 1: It really depends because if you look at five seed
• 44:14
  Speaker 1: Iowa all the way up to one eleven um, but
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: then you look at five seeds St. Mary's um sixty dollars. Yeah,
• 44:23
  Speaker 1: so we can anywhere from like the six dollar range
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: to a hundrellar range. In the five seed Houston I
• 44:29
  Speaker 1: think got the most bang for their buck last year.
• 44:31
  Speaker 1: Five seed I paid dollars, they won me two oh six.
• 44:35
  Speaker 1: Of course, going to pick out one who won the
• 44:40
  Speaker 1: most money last year all in all in that was Danny.
• 44:46
  Speaker 1: He's the one that paid up for Kansas. Daniel Danny
• 44:49
  Speaker 1: Daniel uh Scuba actually did really well last year. You're
• 44:52
  Speaker 1: got North Carolina, right, So he spent seventy and one
• 44:56
  Speaker 1: seven fifty, so you can you can budget your way
• 45:01
  Speaker 1: to big profits. Al Right, Well, Eddie is in, Kevin's in.
• 45:06
  Speaker 1: We think Coleman's in. He's got checked with his wife
• 45:08
  Speaker 1: and him something finance. Alright, sign did you talk to
• 45:12
  Speaker 1: you later? All right later. I see there's a thirteen
• 45:15
  Speaker 1: year old basketball player who is playing in Europe right now.
• 45:18
  Speaker 1: He's six nine. Oh man, he's thirteen. He I watched
• 45:22
  Speaker 1: he put a fifty six points, thirty three rebounds and
• 45:24
  Speaker 1: five blocks in the championship game. I gonna say it again.
• 45:28
  Speaker 1: He's thirteen six nine, score fifty six points at thirty three.
• 45:31
  Speaker 1: That's like a Welt chamber on stat line when they
• 45:32
  Speaker 1: go when they check back in on social media, we
• 45:35
  Speaker 1: need a birth certificate. I mean, how from malle. But
• 45:42
  Speaker 1: I know there's a fifteen year old kid in my
• 45:44
  Speaker 1: son's school. When he's like six one and even that
• 45:47
  Speaker 1: I don't believe. And I see him like, well I
• 45:48
  Speaker 1: want to check his I d they are go ahead, Coleman.
• 45:53
  Speaker 1: I saw a video. It was the stat line wasn't
• 45:55
  Speaker 1: that impressive, but the video was what impressed me. There's
• 45:58
  Speaker 1: a freshman I don't remember where he was from scored
• 46:00
  Speaker 1: thirty four points led his high school team to a win.
• 46:03
  Speaker 1: He shoots with either hand depending on where the defenders are.
• 46:07
  Speaker 1: Either hand, I mean there'd be a lethal weapon. Yeah,
• 46:09
  Speaker 1: that's pretty good. You ever see somebody they can pitch
• 46:11
  Speaker 1: with both hands. Do you know who was a amidextrous
• 46:15
  Speaker 1: picture macho man Randy Savage blew out his like and
• 46:19
  Speaker 1: then hurt himself real bad, but though with both arms, Yes,
• 46:23
  Speaker 1: I do believe so. Then he hurt himself real bad
• 46:25
  Speaker 1: and came back as and played a little bit as
• 46:28
  Speaker 1: like an infielder or something, but then went to wrestling
• 46:30
  Speaker 1: like super bath late aprils. Oh yeah uh. College football
• 46:37
  Speaker 1: executives considering four changes to shortened games. The non controversial
• 46:41
  Speaker 1: ones are prohibiting consecutive time outs ice and kickers. You
• 46:45
  Speaker 1: have two time outs, you call it twice. You just
• 46:47
  Speaker 1: keep icing him. Number two no longer extending a first
• 46:50
  Speaker 1: or third quarter for ant untimed down if the quarter
• 46:52
  Speaker 1: ends on a penalty, meaning if it's not the fourth quarter,
• 46:58
  Speaker 1: you just go to the next group. Move on. Okay, penalty,
• 47:00
  Speaker 1: but will go to the next but here you go. Here.
• 47:02
  Speaker 1: The two controversy ones that I saw. Number one, the
• 47:04
  Speaker 1: clock will continue to run after an offense gains the
• 47:06
  Speaker 1: first down, which isn't the case because they'll stop until
• 47:10
  Speaker 1: the chains, but the NFL does that so it won't
• 47:11
  Speaker 1: feel totally weird that um and the clock will continue
• 47:15
  Speaker 1: to run after an complete pass once the ball is
• 47:16
  Speaker 1: spotted for play, so it won't keep running, but as
• 47:18
  Speaker 1: soon as they get the ball down, much like the
• 47:20
  Speaker 1: first down used to be. That's basically what they would do.
• 47:22
  Speaker 1: That would turn into the first down, but you wouldn't
• 47:26
  Speaker 1: move up, you just respot it there. But they're trying
• 47:28
  Speaker 1: to make games a little shorter. They're doing with a
• 47:31
  Speaker 1: baseball so I watched Arkansas by College baseball three games
• 47:34
  Speaker 1: this weekend. They have that run rule now where you
• 47:36
  Speaker 1: gotta you only have a certain amount of time, get
• 47:38
  Speaker 1: the pitches off. Yeah, it's just what But with football though,
• 47:41
  Speaker 1: I mean, just get the band out of there like this.
• 47:43
  Speaker 1: These half times are so so so long. That's where
• 47:46
  Speaker 1: you're gonna lo. No, they're not talking about they're literally
• 47:48
  Speaker 1: talking about player safety. I just think they're too long,
• 47:52
  Speaker 1: but really want to cut the band. I want to
• 47:54
  Speaker 1: get thank you halftimes. They're so quick, it's like less
• 48:01
  Speaker 1: than fifteen minutes, it seems in there. Back out there, dude,
• 48:04
  Speaker 1: I walk the dog NFL halftimes, I'm like, let me
• 48:06
  Speaker 1: go walk the dog. And every time I come back,
• 48:08
  Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, I'm gonna hurry up and get back.
• 48:09
  Speaker 1: I always i'm late for the game. In college, I
• 48:12
  Speaker 1: go for a walk, I come back, I'm still sitting
• 48:14
  Speaker 1: there for twenty more minutes. And about you, though, buddy,
• 48:17
  Speaker 1: They're trying to actually make players safety good an issue
• 48:20
  Speaker 1: more than that. Um okay, Damian a little one three
• 48:23
  Speaker 1: point contest. McClung won the dunk contest. Tatum won the
• 48:26
  Speaker 1: MVP the All Star Game, scored more points than anybody
• 48:28
  Speaker 1: ever in the All Star Game history, where there's no
• 48:29
  Speaker 1: defense almost yeah, but there rarely is there. I want
• 48:34
  Speaker 1: to go over to Matt Stell, who he's a good
• 48:37
  Speaker 1: singer who cares um. But we played in a league
• 48:40
  Speaker 1: together where we bought NFL teams, and it's time to
• 48:43
  Speaker 1: pay the piper. Um. So if you see Matt Stell out,
• 48:47
  Speaker 1: you can go to a show if you want. But
• 48:49
  Speaker 1: right now I don't have the warmst feelings toward Matt
• 48:52
  Speaker 1: Stell because he did a whole instagram of what he
• 48:53
  Speaker 1: should do with my money. Do you guys see that
• 48:55
  Speaker 1: one by any chance? It's stupid. It's stupid, and they
• 48:57
  Speaker 1: hate him and he's ugly, and he's actually awesome and
• 49:00
  Speaker 1: he's a good friend. Here. He is the singer of
• 49:03
  Speaker 1: Pray for You Matt Stell. Now either all right on
• 49:07
  Speaker 1: with us country music superstar Matt Stell. Why did you
• 49:10
  Speaker 1: laugh at Yeah, it's true superstar. And you thought I
• 49:17
  Speaker 1: had poked him like the Pillsbury dough boy laughs hard. Okay,
• 49:21
  Speaker 1: so let's just let's just get this out here. I've
• 49:23
  Speaker 1: been talking about it all year. You guys know that
• 49:25
  Speaker 1: league that I'm in where I bought the teams and
• 49:27
  Speaker 1: then however good they do, I make money. However bad
• 49:29
  Speaker 1: they do, I lose money. And it's all you're long.
• 49:31
  Speaker 1: I tell you when I drafted my team. So I'm
• 49:33
  Speaker 1: just going from memory here. It was the Rams. First round.
• 49:36
  Speaker 1: Drafted the Rams. We got six teams. I was like
• 49:38
  Speaker 1: money in the bank. Let me just start counting my riches.
• 49:41
  Speaker 1: Then I got the Chargers, which was rough at first,
• 49:43
  Speaker 1: but okay, I got the Raiders. God dangn got the Cowboys,
• 49:47
  Speaker 1: which money good. And my my biggest money maker was
• 49:50
  Speaker 1: the Bears, but to lose and then the oh my god,
• 49:53
  Speaker 1: the Colts. So I remember texting Matt because Matt's one
• 49:58
  Speaker 1: who got me in the stupid league. Now i' you
• 50:00
  Speaker 1: want to take advantage of me? I said, hey, man,
• 50:02
  Speaker 1: he goes. You got a good team there. Now, question
• 50:04
  Speaker 1: number one, did you think I had a good team
• 50:06
  Speaker 1: when you really told me that? Man, I really did
• 50:08
  Speaker 1: think you had a good team I had. I think
• 50:10
  Speaker 1: the Rams are the are what swung you so like
• 50:13
  Speaker 1: the rest of the teams were, you know, kind of whatever,
• 50:15
  Speaker 1: you know they were. You had some good winners in
• 50:17
  Speaker 1: there and stuff, but the Rams were probably performed below
• 50:22
  Speaker 1: expectations more than any other team in the league I
• 50:25
  Speaker 1: thought in that division. Honestly, the Colts really suck. Yeah,
• 50:30
  Speaker 1: the Colts too. I mean that that was a that
• 50:32
  Speaker 1: was a mess. You just kind of got uh you
• 50:34
  Speaker 1: got freight trained a little bit by the by the
• 50:36
  Speaker 1: winners there. Yeah. And I was always looking too, like, Okay,
• 50:38
  Speaker 1: how can I make ten bucks back? And I was
• 50:40
  Speaker 1: down like three thousand dollars at one point, and so
• 50:43
  Speaker 1: I ended up um because Matt send a text out
• 50:46
  Speaker 1: reminding everybody how much they owed he was bill collecting
• 50:48
  Speaker 1: this oh Man. Yeah yeah, Matt steal bill collector. You
• 50:51
  Speaker 1: know you want to keep your pencils sharp. Yeah, I
• 50:53
  Speaker 1: hear you. So Stell text everybody and it's like, all right,
• 50:56
  Speaker 1: here's how much you. Oh so I had to pay.
• 51:00
  Speaker 1: And it sucks because I made, be honest with you,
• 51:03
  Speaker 1: like super Bowl made like eight thousand dollars bend that
• 51:05
  Speaker 1: super Bowl all in. I had put second back in
• 51:08
  Speaker 1: the bank, which I thought was pretty good. At me,
• 51:10
  Speaker 1: I never put it back in the bank. So I'm
• 51:11
  Speaker 1: feeling pretty good about myself. And then Matt Stell says, well,
• 51:14
  Speaker 1: boys to the whole league, congrats on a great first season.
• 51:18
  Speaker 1: You know why he's saying that because he won freaking money.
• 51:21
  Speaker 1: Here we go. Some say it's not the amount of
• 51:24
  Speaker 1: money we win or lose, it's the friends we make
• 51:27
  Speaker 1: along the way. Again, he made money. I hate everybody
• 51:31
  Speaker 1: in this group now, uh, he says, okay, on on on,
• 51:34
  Speaker 1: and so here's what I I have to pay. And
• 51:37
  Speaker 1: I did pay. Um Joe House, who I know from
• 51:43
  Speaker 1: the ringer from Bill Simmons podcast and golf. So I
• 51:47
  Speaker 1: didn't know that was him until he got in the league.

  Speaker 1: the one that actually he was playing golf. I think
• 53:15
  Speaker 1: he was playing golf at like Riviera or someplace in
• 53:17
  Speaker 1: l a And somebody had mentioned the league like this,
• 53:21
  Speaker 1: and he brought it back to Texas all like that,
• 53:23
  Speaker 1: that's where this friend group is from. And he brought
• 53:25
  Speaker 1: it back and we do that and we started doing
• 53:28
  Speaker 1: this Skins League and it ends up being I think,
• 53:32
  Speaker 1: I mean I lost money probably the first year too,
• 53:34
  Speaker 1: but it ends up being the most fun thing that
• 53:37
  Speaker 1: I do sports betting wise, because it's like it ends
• 53:40
  Speaker 1: up being like fantasy football, but but you care about
• 53:44
  Speaker 1: who wins and loses it again, you know, fantasy can
• 53:48
  Speaker 1: be fun, but it's so flu key, and it's like
• 53:50
  Speaker 1: so all these trash points and you know, like like
• 53:53
  Speaker 1: points where in the game isn't on the line, whereas
• 53:56
  Speaker 1: in Skins League, it's all about winning and losing and
• 53:58
  Speaker 1: then you don't have to set a line up every week.
• 54:00
  Speaker 1: So I didn't I didn't find hot with I know
• 54:03
  Speaker 1: you say it's fine. I didn't find it to be
• 54:04
  Speaker 1: fun all. Actually I found it to be actually pretty terrible. Well,
• 54:08
  Speaker 1: and it's also easy to it's easy to hitch, like
• 54:11
  Speaker 1: because you know if if you're going in, you've got
• 54:14
  Speaker 1: these So basically what it ends up being is you
• 54:16
  Speaker 1: have six teams, and you know, with bye weeks and
• 54:20
  Speaker 1: with teams playing each other. Let's say that you've got
• 54:22
  Speaker 1: like five teams, You've got you got five games going
• 54:26
  Speaker 1: every week where you've got action and on a lot
• 54:28
  Speaker 1: of those games, you know it's a it's just a
• 54:30
  Speaker 1: straight up bet basically, so you can you know that
• 54:33
  Speaker 1: if you win this game, you're gonna win a hundred
• 54:36
  Speaker 1: dollars from everybody in the in the pool there's six teams.
• 54:40
  Speaker 1: Every time you win a skin, you win a hundred
• 54:42
  Speaker 1: dollars off every person. So it ends up being worth
• 54:44
  Speaker 1: five bucks. So if you're on the right side of
• 54:47
  Speaker 1: a point spread, you know you can go bet the
• 54:50
  Speaker 1: you can go go bet the underdog on the money line.
• 54:53
  Speaker 1: You know, if they're like plus, you know they're like,
• 54:56
  Speaker 1: they're like plus one five. You can go bet that
• 54:59
  Speaker 1: against your regular their bed and you can come and
• 55:01
  Speaker 1: you can hedge it really easy. Interesting tell them what
• 55:04
  Speaker 1: I do by hedging crap, I go, I go for
• 55:07
  Speaker 1: the gusto. I have a wiener. Yeah, yeah, he's got
• 55:14
  Speaker 1: he's got that old crown that what what a crown
• 55:16
  Speaker 1: royal bottle comes in below up. So I'm gonna pay
• 55:23
  Speaker 1: you now this money as we're here together. And does
• 55:28
  Speaker 1: it always have to be just six teams or now? Man,
• 55:32
  Speaker 1: we've always done it that way, you know. I guess
• 55:34
  Speaker 1: you could you know, in theory, you could have you know,
• 55:38
  Speaker 1: because there's obviously thirty two teams in the league, but
• 55:40
  Speaker 1: you take teams to either win or lose. So in
• 55:44
  Speaker 1: theory you there are sixty four total teams. But then
• 55:47
  Speaker 1: that would have you taken like the Chiefs to lose
• 55:50
  Speaker 1: and the and the Texas to win, you know, something
• 55:52
  Speaker 1: like that. I mean, I guess you could expand it
• 55:54
  Speaker 1: or contract it. But it seems to be that we
• 55:57
  Speaker 1: have six teams, and we are six owners ship groups,
• 56:00
  Speaker 1: and each ownership group drafts six teams, so's thirty six teams.
• 56:04
  Speaker 1: So you're gonna have some overlap there um, and it
• 56:07
  Speaker 1: ends up being is up working out pretty well that
• 56:10
  Speaker 1: way here. You could mess with it, but that sounds stupid.
• 56:13
  Speaker 1: It's stupid teaming. I'm in next year, though, for sure,
• 56:16
  Speaker 1: as stupid as the stupid thing I've ever done. I
• 56:18
  Speaker 1: hated it, hate every second of it. But I'm in
• 56:19
  Speaker 1: next year, I'll say in my spot. Um. And then
• 56:22
  Speaker 1: as far as the math and how it all checks out,
• 56:25
  Speaker 1: I never really investigated it, so I could be getting
• 56:26
  Speaker 1: fully made off here, I don't know. I didn't do
• 56:29
  Speaker 1: the math on at all. I'm just trusting Matt Stell,
• 56:31
  Speaker 1: who at times not that trustworthy. So heytche that's why
• 56:35
  Speaker 1: you gamble with you, buddies. You know who else? You
• 56:38
  Speaker 1: know who else was in the league? Oh man? So
• 56:41
  Speaker 1: it was so I co owned a team with my
• 56:45
  Speaker 1: buddy Will that got that that he's the one that
• 56:48
  Speaker 1: got this idea and rolling so Willing. I own a team,
• 56:51
  Speaker 1: and you own a team. Pat Maroon owns a team
• 56:54
  Speaker 1: Tampa Bay Lightning Great St. Louis Blues great. Uh. He
• 56:58
  Speaker 1: owned the team. Scott Chandler former Buffalo Bill's uh Patriots
• 57:03
  Speaker 1: great tight end him and his brother They owned a team, Uh,
• 57:07
  Speaker 1: Joe House and Chris Vernon from the Ringer Podcast Network
• 57:11
  Speaker 1: uh and grind City Media. Those guys on the team.
• 57:14
  Speaker 1: And then the guy that is the basically owned my
• 57:19
  Speaker 1: management come up, basically owns my management company is uh.
• 57:23
  Speaker 1: He's the other him and one of his h one
• 57:27
  Speaker 1: of his buddies are the sixth team there, uh that
• 57:30
  Speaker 1: that make up the league. So it's a it's a
• 57:33
  Speaker 1: pretty good it's a pretty good amalgamation of dudes. There
• 57:37
  Speaker 1: s a big word. Hey, listen, here's the thing. I
• 57:40
  Speaker 1: pretty much owned the Browns if we're like doing in
• 57:42
  Speaker 1: a comparison to what happened this year, I owned the
• 57:44
  Speaker 1: Browns basically, and we really let our fans down, passionate
• 57:47
  Speaker 1: fan base, just me and we will let us down.
• 57:49
  Speaker 1: And I had I lost over three. I mean it's stupid.
• 57:53
  Speaker 1: I's um, so I just paid you. I paid Matt
• 57:56
  Speaker 1: still one thousand, seven hundred sixty six dollars and I
• 57:59
  Speaker 1: put in just so you know, it's you're stupid and
• 58:00
  Speaker 1: you're ugly. So that's in the message there. And Matt
• 58:06
  Speaker 1: told me this before we started. Goes it's fun. You
• 58:08
  Speaker 1: made at worst, you loose like a thousand bucks and
• 58:10
  Speaker 1: I was like, okay, well let's go. He didn't say
• 58:13
  Speaker 1: you lose thirty bucks. I stopped looking at the playoffs
• 58:16
  Speaker 1: because I was just upset that I couldn't gain any
• 58:18
  Speaker 1: of my money back. So that's where we are, Matt
• 58:21
  Speaker 1: cell stupid, and I think we'll retire there. Now one
• 58:25
  Speaker 1: final question, you're Matt, as far as the money goes,
• 58:27
  Speaker 1: did I lose more than anybody else? No? Oh, yeah,
• 58:31
  Speaker 1: no you didn't. I think, um, you and Pat lost
• 58:35
  Speaker 1: about the same. I think I think, uh, Steve and
• 58:39
  Speaker 1: the Whitney Ranch mafia boys, they really took it on
• 58:42
  Speaker 1: the chin this year. How much did you win overall? Uh?
• 58:47
  Speaker 1: In the league? I think we won something around four grand.
• 58:50
  Speaker 1: I think we end up making four grands. The Chandlers
• 58:52
  Speaker 1: were the big winners though. The Chandlers won eight grand
• 58:56
  Speaker 1: this year, which is an outlier. You know, usually you're well,
• 58:58
  Speaker 1: usually you win or lose a couple of thousand bucks.
• 59:01
  Speaker 1: You know, I'm also an outlier. Then, thank you. This
• 59:03
  Speaker 1: is stupid. This is stupid, and I hate it, but
• 59:07
  Speaker 1: I paid it, and thank god I wanted the money
• 59:08
  Speaker 1: on the Super Bowl. I'd really been like, this blows.
• 59:11
  Speaker 1: But okay, well, thank you for the entertainment this year. Matt,
• 59:14
  Speaker 1: where are you by the way right now? I'm I'm
• 59:17
  Speaker 1: in downtown mashill up my publisher about to write a song.
• 59:20
  Speaker 1: All right, Well, hope it sucks and I hope it
• 59:23
  Speaker 1: never comes into anything. I hope you can't find something
• 59:25
  Speaker 1: right about I hope it's I hope you're end up
• 59:27
  Speaker 1: writing and you put it out and you accidentally stold
• 59:29
  Speaker 1: it from somebody, you get sued. Like That's what I
• 59:31
  Speaker 1: hope happens today. Yeah, that's what I hope happens. All right, Matt,
• 59:35
  Speaker 1: Good to talk to you, buddy. Alright, alright, see you
• 59:37
  Speaker 1: later though, all right there is Matt still Oh end
• 59:41
  Speaker 1: with this before we get out of here. But I
• 59:43
  Speaker 1: was reading the story about C. J. Stroud, who played
• 59:45
  Speaker 1: quarterback at Ohio State. He was thirteen years old when
• 59:48
  Speaker 1: his father was sent us to thirty eight years in prison.
• 59:51
  Speaker 1: Did you guys know the story? No? No, This cost
• 59:54
  Speaker 1: Stroud to spend his high school years living in a
• 59:55
  Speaker 1: small apartment of a storage facility. The family did not
• 59:59
  Speaker 1: have money. He was not able to a private coach
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 1: like other top quarterbacks were able to do. Sometimes I
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 1: had to ask people for help to get new cleats
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 1: or even contact lenses. He still pursued his football dream.
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 1: He eventually committed Ohio State University, and now he is
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 1: on the cusp of being the first Ohio State quarterback
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 1: to be selected in the top ten of the NFL
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 1: Draft in forty one years. Like, that is a kid
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 1: who's gone through it. You got me with that story.
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 1: I mean, I'm a fan. Now that is a kid
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 1: who's a good through it for sure. Um, okay, I
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 1: think Michael we good, We're good. One final question. I'll
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 1: do it as my in thought. So give me give
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 1: me your final in thought here, Eddie. You guys are
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 1: gonna hate me for this. Go ahead. Oh you think
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 1: the Cowboys are gonna cut Zeke? I would? I mean,
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 1: that's the talk. I would. The problem is Pollard's coming
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 1: off an injury too. That's risky. I know they owe
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 1: him like eleven million for sure next year even if
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 1: they cut him, but they could say, have a little
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 1: cap room. Would you cut him yesterday? Absolutely? But you
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 1: got a better on Pollard who's coming off an injuries? Well,
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 1: I would? I would? I mean, I hopefully, I mean,
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 1: if they can get my homes back to like nothing's
• 1:00:59
  Speaker 1: going on. Yeah, we got time to get Pallar healthy.
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 1: But here's the deal with Zeke, Dude, I mean, what's
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 1: he done for us in the last two years. Nothing?
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 1: He evers four yards of carrious of course in touchdowns,
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 1: goal line back blocks that whole line back. I liked
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 1: having them played together to jerseys. Seriously, that's a big
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 1: part of it. Anyway, go ahead. My final thought. My
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 1: final thought, guys, I finally watched Hoosiers for the first time,
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 1: and that crazy, like so so so with my kid
• 1:01:25
  Speaker 1: playing basketball, we're going to like this big playoff thing.
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 1: And before every game, Colman, you know, like this, I've
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 1: been showing him just like little things. Let's watch Mono
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 1: Jenoble highlights. He didn't know anything about Mono Jenoble, and
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 1: he's like and now he loves man New. He's like, yeah,
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 1: he plays like my new. And then I was thinking,
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 1: let me, is there a movie I'm never seeing Hoosiers before.
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 1: Let's see, like that's the whole story of a first
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 1: time coach and we want dude, that's a good movie.
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 1: Great movie, like good movie, And I feel stupid that
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 1: I missed out on that, Like that's a classic. I
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 1: should have watched like Rudy Gene Hackman. Probably odd connection
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 1: that I have roommate in college. He's from Indiana. His
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 1: uncle is Jimmy Chitwood, the actor, not the actual Jimmy
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 1: Chitwood that they based the character on, but the actors
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 1: my roommates uncle. Really yeah, that's crazy, dude. My son too,
• 1:02:15
  Speaker 1: He's like, I want to play with Jimmy today. Boy,
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 1: this is out non connected. We are listen to this.
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 1: Coleman's got the actor Jimmy chitwould like roommates, cousins, uncle's
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 1: mal Man away and I got my friends wife's brother.
• 1:02:29
  Speaker 1: Hold on, go ahead. My grandfather he ran my uh
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 1: Western auto like a I don't know, auto store or
• 1:02:38
  Speaker 1: something whatever. He caught Tom Landry in there one day
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 1: stealing beebes as a kid or as a kid. How
• 1:02:46
  Speaker 1: do you know? My grandfather told me. And then my
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 1: dad's like it sounds like a story that was made up,
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 1: because how do you know as a kid, Like, what
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 1: do you have from Tom Landry to prove that happen?
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 1: Tom Landry lived in that hometown, the small hometown Mission
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 1: Mission Texas. I know you're gonna believe Coleman and Jimmy
• 1:03:04
  Speaker 1: that one out of nowhere, all of a sudden, you're
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 1: a Cowboys fan and Tom Lander's still in Bebes. Did
• 1:03:12
  Speaker 1: you have your thing saying that member is no, but
• 1:03:17
  Speaker 1: thank you for sharing, Kevin. Mind's more of a question
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 1: or you guys opinions. Actually, So, I've been borrowing Eddie's
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 1: golf clubs for about a year now. Right when I
• 1:03:25
  Speaker 1: moved out here, I didn't take mine. I left him
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 1: back at home and I borrowed his for about a year.
• 1:03:30
  Speaker 1: And I've saved up some money in the last few months,
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 1: kind of put some money on the side, and I'm
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 1: ready to buy my own set of golf clubs Eddie,
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 1: and I know you're happy about it. So I need

• 1:03:45
  Speaker 1: what brand is the best, But it's only because the

• 1:04:18
  Speaker 1: be like, all right, I got this guy. But you
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 1: tell me you want to be fit for the clubs
• 1:04:22
  Speaker 1: that you buy, and they can do that there. Maybe
• 1:04:25
  Speaker 1: you don't even charge you for a little bit. And
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 1: you're a pretty tall guy, and they'll make sure that
• 1:04:29
  Speaker 1: your clubs are built for your body more than get
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 1: the right brand. But those Cobras, though, do That's where
• 1:04:34
  Speaker 1: it's when you play Cobras where Puma? That helps, right,
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 1: And if you gotta tell you what, you get some
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 1: Cobra's pumas, you get some Cobra clubs, you can probably
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 1: get a couple of Puma shirts. Throw alright, what's your
• 1:04:47
  Speaker 1: what's your budget? I'm looking at like six hundred, Yes,
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 1: thank you for that, and that's why, but um, so
• 1:04:55
  Speaker 1: like six bucks, even if it's like a little used.
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 1: I'm okay. I don't have anything special, like I said,
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 1: more so something that's decent that will last me a
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 1: while and that fits. Well. Here's here's the cool thing.
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 1: My first pair of club or the set of clubs.
• 1:05:08
  Speaker 1: I had those for twenty years. I planned him for
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 1: twenty years. Okay, and he's not the same anymore. That
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 1: used to being day We're not drove our old four nineteen. Yeah,
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 1: thank you. He actually stole these clubs too, Mike, what
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 1: do you want to say anything? I saw Adam Sandler
• 1:05:27
  Speaker 1: over the weekend and it was amazing. I'm sad you
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 1: didn't get to go. Would have loved it. I know
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 1: I would have loved it. It was awesome. Dog was hurt,
• 1:05:35

• 1:05:37
  Speaker 1: rehab get back with Cowboys next year. Having that's the trade. Yeah, Coleman,
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 1: what do you want to say in the show here?
• 1:05:43
  Speaker 1: Don't be the person that's first times tuning into college
• 1:05:46
  Speaker 1: basketball is when the n c A Tournament hits. We
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 1: are less than three weeks from selection Sunday, we are
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 1: less than one week away from the first conference tournaments
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 1: beginning tune into those It's it's arguably more exciting the
• 1:05:58
  Speaker 1: conference tournaments than a turner. I would agree with that
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 1: a lot of times, especially as you get to the
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 1: semis of the finals and some teams are winning their
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 1: way in for those small conferences. Yeah, it's when I
• 1:06:08
  Speaker 1: go home, they have to win it. Uh. Finally, just
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 1: a tactic question for you guys. I was playing pickle
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 1: ball with a friend of mine who is a He
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 1: was really good and so good. Then we played the
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 1: first match. I was just so overwhelmed by how good
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 1: he was and I was like, okay, crap. So he
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 1: went to the first two. We're playing best five. He
• 1:06:24
  Speaker 1: wins the first two. I win the second too. But
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 1: during that time, he's going through some personal I wouldn't
• 1:06:28
  Speaker 1: say crisis, but some drama in his life. And I
• 1:06:30
  Speaker 1: know about it, but in the middle of those matches,
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 1: I would like bring it up just to mess him out,

  Speaker 1: the fifties, Like I gotta focus in. I'm not talking
• 1:06:54
  Speaker 1: about anything because he didn't know that's what I was doing.
• 1:06:56
