  Speaker 1: Charged into summer with Tooey and secure your holiday today
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: with deals for families and adults flying from your local airport.
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: Holiday sorted two Decency's apply.
• 0:11
  Speaker 2: It brings such joy. I mean, I've been broadcasting Nick
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: games more than half my life, and again to sit
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: next to one of the all time greats and have
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: this lifetime friendship with him, I get emotional thinking about it.
• 0:23
  Speaker 3: And you know, we've.
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: Broadcast aho lot of bad basketball for a long time,
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: and again it's to see.
• 0:30
  Speaker 3: The game played in the most beautiful way.
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: For Clyde to say that this team reminds him of it,
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: he doesn't say that very often. For him to say
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: that Jalen Brunson reminds him of the leadership of Willis,
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: he doesn't say that about anybody. So that kind of joy.
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: It's the way the game is supposed to be played.
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: And there's such a a high character bunch that you
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: root for them because of the effort and the type
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: of young men that they are, So I mean, there's
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: just such joy. I've been rooting further Nick since I
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: was seven years old, and to have a team like
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: this is pretty pretty dark special.
• 1:04
  Speaker 4: The Golden voice of the NBA Finals, and our New
• 1:08
  Speaker 4: York Knicks, our dear friend Mike Breen breamers on this
• 1:11
  Speaker 4: show just last week. He'll be back before the NBA Finals.
• 1:15
  Speaker 4: We may find out tonight who the Knickerbockers will take
• 1:20
  Speaker 4: on next, if in fact, Oklahoma City can get themselves
• 1:23
  Speaker 4: a road win in San Antonio. I don't think they will,
• 1:27
  Speaker 4: but if they do, we know it'll be Nicks and Thunder.
• 1:31
  Speaker 4: If not tonight, then we've got a Game seven coming
• 1:34
  Speaker 4: up from Oklahoma City on Saturday, and at that point
• 1:37
  Speaker 4: of course, we'll know who the Knicks are playing next.
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: The great Mike.
• 1:41
  Speaker 4: Breen Hall of Fame voice. So we go from one
• 1:45
  Speaker 4: Hall of Famer to another. The afternoon host at WFBA
• 1:49
  Speaker 4: n Carton and Seemac Hall of Famer, my dear friend,
• 1:52
  Speaker 4: Craig Carton. And Craig, you know a lot about basketball,
• 1:56
  Speaker 4: a lot about sports. You become the voice of New
• 1:59
  Speaker 4: York Sports on the band every day. Can you tell
• 2:02
  Speaker 4: me some of the players on the nineteen ninety three
• 2:05
  Speaker 4: New York Knick championship team.
• 2:08
  Speaker 5: That's funny. Michael Jordan, Tis Grantz, Johnny Pippen. Yeah, I mean,
• 2:15
  Speaker 5: what dope? I think it's the craziest thing about is that. Yeah,
• 2:22
  Speaker 5: the next set year won sixty games with pat Riley,
• 2:25
  Speaker 5: went to the Eastern Conference Finals and of course kind
• 2:28
  Speaker 5: of eliminated by the juggernaut that was the Michael Jordan bullsbud.
• 2:32
  Speaker 5: I always love it when politicians try to act like
• 2:37
  Speaker 5: they're cool and they are sports fans and try to
• 2:40
  Speaker 5: take advantage of a city, whether it's New York or
• 2:43
  Speaker 5: the other city, try to take advantage of the interest
• 2:46
  Speaker 5: in a team trying to make a championship run. And
• 2:48
  Speaker 5: I can't wait for the next thing to happen, which
• 2:50
  Speaker 5: is going to be when Kathy Hokel reaches out to
• 2:54
  Speaker 5: the governor of Texas or the governor of Oklahoma and says,
• 2:58
  Speaker 5: I'll put up a slice of has some junior sheeeshake
• 3:03
  Speaker 5: for a Rocker ribs. I shut off.
• 3:07
  Speaker 4: I hate it too, And look, you know how much
• 3:09
  Speaker 4: I hate Keel Craig. You listen to this show every day,
• 3:11
  Speaker 4: and and I hate mam Donnie too. And I don't
• 3:14
  Speaker 4: buy that either one of them loves his team. Ma'm
• 3:17
  Speaker 4: Donnie was in the rafters with Jumani Williams a couple
• 3:21
  Speaker 4: nights ago, and he may know these guys but like
• 3:23
  Speaker 4: I talked about for days, I tweeted this days ago,
• 3:26
  Speaker 4: even before Kathy Hokeel made that moronic comment yesterday exposing
• 3:31
  Speaker 4: herself as the liar and the fraud that she is
• 3:34
  Speaker 4: about her Nick Vandam. I tweeted days ago that Mom,
• 3:37
  Speaker 4: Donnie and Hukel they know nothing about this organization, nothing
• 3:40
  Speaker 4: about the history, nothing about the real hard times, which, unfortunately,
• 3:45
  Speaker 4: Craig Carton you and I know very very well.
• 3:49
  Speaker 5: Yeah, you and I grew up with Rory Sparrow and
• 3:52
  Speaker 5: tren Chucker and Truck Rosson fanis and but our king
• 3:56
  Speaker 5: was our hero. As a Nick fan, you had to
• 3:58
  Speaker 5: take on his fingers and travels fifty points against the
• 4:01
  Speaker 5: Pistons in the game seven, you know, to win a
• 4:04
  Speaker 5: series for the first time. I've gotten this how long.
• 4:07
  Speaker 5: But I say both of them, the mayor and the
• 4:09
  Speaker 5: governor or what we like to call tryhards. They're trying
• 4:13
  Speaker 5: so hard, you know, to be cool and hit Ben
• 4:17
  Speaker 5: in the know that it comes across as so you're
• 4:20
  Speaker 5: transparent has a static. But I gotta say something to
• 4:23
  Speaker 5: you because you know I love you. Oh, but are
• 4:27
  Speaker 5: you trying to steal a ticket from a garden of
• 4:30
  Speaker 5: Dreams Charity kids.
• 4:33
  Speaker 4: Well, I mean steal a ticket. Well, yes I am, Craig, Yes,
• 4:37
  Speaker 4: yes I am. They're giving out like one hundred tickets.
• 4:44
  Speaker 4: If you make ninety nine kids happy, and said Rosenberg happy.
• 4:47
  Speaker 4: I think you've done a good thing.
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: But I am trying.
• 4:50
  Speaker 4: I want I want to sit right next to President
• 4:52
  Speaker 4: Trump rather than one of these again, these horrible liberals,
• 4:56
  Speaker 4: Ben Stiller or even Tracy. Certainly Lee, you gotta have
• 5:01
  Speaker 4: Sid sit next to Trump on the garden floor. That
• 5:04
  Speaker 4: would make the most sension. I gotta give you credit, Craigie,
• 5:06
  Speaker 4: because I was on the shuttle. If they're getting off
• 5:09
  Speaker 4: the ferry and rockaway last week and listening.
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: To your show, which you're great, you will, you are great, and.
• 5:15
  Speaker 4: You're going on and on about how the Knicks are
• 5:17
  Speaker 4: gonna sweep them seemac He actually pushed back a little bit,
• 5:21
  Speaker 4: So did I. I texted you, I said, I love
• 5:23
  Speaker 4: your enthusiasm, but your nuts. And when the Knicks are
• 5:26
  Speaker 4: down by twenty two in the fourth quarter Game one
• 5:28
  Speaker 4: against Cleveland, I'm about to text you and go, Craigi,
• 5:32
  Speaker 4: doesn't look so good.
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: They come back.
• 5:34
  Speaker 4: And win, and you now that I heard your piece
• 5:37
  Speaker 4: yesterday that Nick Bans and people in this city thought, hey,
• 5:41
  Speaker 4: Atlanta had a shot against him. Philly and Cleveland. You
• 5:44
  Speaker 4: said nobody thought the Knicks were gonna win. I'm not
• 5:47
  Speaker 4: sure that's one hundred percent true, but to your credit,
• 5:50
  Speaker 4: you are the Knicks sweeping Cleveland, blowing them out the building,
• 5:54
  Speaker 4: and you were exactly right.
• 5:56
  Speaker 5: Yeah, it's I think you're part of maybe in the
• 5:59
  Speaker 5: next chance for sure, and I got lucky because that
• 6:02
  Speaker 5: game won't come back. You can't predict that, obviously, But
• 6:05
  Speaker 5: what's interesting is how many people disrespect, you know, the
• 6:08
  Speaker 5: next whether that's a dislike or hatred for New York
• 6:11
  Speaker 5: and it just kind of oozes into your sports conversations.
• 6:16
  Speaker 5: But suddenly happened after Game three against the Atlanta Hawks,
• 6:21
  Speaker 5: and I can't wait to find out what that is.
• 6:24
  Speaker 5: Well after the Canyon of Hero's Parade, where a light
• 6:27
  Speaker 5: bulb went off, and they've just been the most dominant
• 6:30
  Speaker 5: basketball team, arguably that we've ever seen in the postseason.
• 6:34
  Speaker 5: And that means the Jordan Bowles, you know, the Showtime Lakers,
• 6:38
  Speaker 5: the Kobe Shack Lakers, the Steph Curry Warriors. We have
• 6:43
  Speaker 5: never witnessed this type of domination over the course of
• 6:47
  Speaker 5: a full month of basketball, or eleven consecutive games like
• 6:51
  Speaker 5: we've seen from the next end. As much as I
• 6:53
  Speaker 5: may have gotten it right, I couldn't have predicted this
• 6:56
  Speaker 5: because we've never seen it historically. It's the great eleven
• 7:01
  Speaker 5: game run in basketball history. Like even when Docs and
• 7:04
  Speaker 5: James Nasmith invented a peach basket and the basketball nobody
• 7:10
  Speaker 5: dominated basketball this Nick teams.
• 7:14
  Speaker 4: No, you're right, I've never seen it either, And if
• 7:16
  Speaker 4: God is good to me, I'll be sixty in April.
• 7:18
  Speaker 4: I've watched a lot of Nick basketball, a lot of
• 7:20
  Speaker 4: basketball overall. No, I don't remember the Bill Russell days,
• 7:23
  Speaker 4: and they're winning championships every year. But even they didn't
• 7:26
  Speaker 4: win these games by thirty points. Lowry Bird Celtic teams
• 7:28
  Speaker 4: didn't win their games by thirty points. Especially when you
• 7:31
  Speaker 4: consider the Knicks have won all three close out games
• 7:34
  Speaker 4: on the road by thirty points. It's been pretty remarkable.
• 7:38
  Speaker 5: Now you did not just consider this. Jalen Brunson hasn't
• 7:43
  Speaker 5: played in the fourth quarter right close out game yet.
• 7:46
  Speaker 4: Right, No, he has not even played the best player
• 7:49
  Speaker 4: because they've been up by so many points.
• 7:51
  Speaker 3: Now you did something.
• 7:52
  Speaker 5: You used to dominate the outdoor court in park.
• 7:55
  Speaker 3: Yes, yes I did.
• 7:57
  Speaker 4: Not only maisno Park. Come on now Mareen Park in Brooklyn,
• 8:01
  Speaker 4: and I can tell you Terrence Mullen was out there.
• 8:03
  Speaker 4: He saw this, Not Chris, but Terren saw it. Now,
• 8:06
  Speaker 4: you did say on this show a couple of days ago,
• 8:08
  Speaker 4: because I have the opportunity to speak to you, and again,
• 8:12
  Speaker 4: I think you're the best in sports talk radio in
• 8:14
  Speaker 4: the country today. And my friend Joe Binningleho, I think
• 8:17
  Speaker 4: is a illegitimate legend and should be in the Hall
• 8:19
  Speaker 4: of Fame one day. And he said to me even
• 8:22
  Speaker 4: before the Cleveland series that this is championship or bust.
• 8:26
  Speaker 4: I don't want to hear. We're back in the NBA finals. Now,
• 8:28
  Speaker 4: you disagreed with that last week you said, wait, wait, wait,
• 8:31
  Speaker 4: if we get to the finals, that's pretty damn good.
• 8:34
  Speaker 4: But the way the Knicks have played, but you just
• 8:36
  Speaker 4: talked about the way they've blown out the competition, whether
• 8:39
  Speaker 4: it's Oklahoma City or San Antonio. Do you still feel
• 8:43
  Speaker 4: that way or do you think the Knicks right now
• 8:44
  Speaker 4: are destined to win the whole thing?
• 8:47
  Speaker 5: Yeah? Well, look I saw you had to get to
• 8:49
  Speaker 5: the NBA finals or I think there'd be some pushback
• 8:51
  Speaker 5: on how successful the year was. But for a franchise
• 8:55
  Speaker 5: and hasn't won a championship, it's nineteen seventy three.
• 9:01
  Speaker 4: Clearly you haven't done your homework. They won in nineteen
• 9:04
  Speaker 4: ninety three.
• 9:05
  Speaker 5: That's right. Ever since that great ninety three team, I
• 9:09
  Speaker 5: decided not to have a trade because they're so awesome, Like,
• 9:13
  Speaker 5: how can any of us say that any Nick team
• 9:16
  Speaker 5: is championship for Bus? But that being said, when you
• 9:19
  Speaker 5: dominate the way they've dominated, I think it changes the narrative.
• 9:24
  Speaker 5: And I think this team now is a championship for
• 9:27
  Speaker 5: Bus team. But I did not feel that way a
• 9:30
  Speaker 5: month and a half ago. I thought it was you
• 9:32
  Speaker 5: gotta get there for Bus. Let's send a year roll
• 9:35
  Speaker 5: of dice.
• 9:36
  Speaker 4: I think that's fair. So then and again, this is
• 9:38
  Speaker 4: the Hall of being Boys. Wup my hands, Craig Cart.
• 9:40
  Speaker 4: And also there's a tremendous podcast every morning over there
• 9:43
  Speaker 4: at Fox Sports. Now, Oklahoma City is probably gonna win
• 9:48
  Speaker 4: this series, and may not win tonight, but I can't
• 9:51
  Speaker 4: see the Thunder losing a Game seven at home in
• 9:54
  Speaker 4: an old banness to the Knicks and the way they
• 9:55
  Speaker 4: played Oklahoma City. They all the raining NBA champs. The
• 9:59
  Speaker 4: nick never beat them, unlike San Antonio, the Knicks never
• 10:03
  Speaker 4: beat them during the regular season. The Knicks do not
• 10:05
  Speaker 4: match up well against them, and last night checked, they've
• 10:08
  Speaker 4: only lost about two games like the Knicks in these
• 10:11
  Speaker 4: entire playoffs. They're going to be the underdog the Knicks.
• 10:14
  Speaker 4: So is it fail to just assume that the Knicks
• 10:18
  Speaker 4: are going to win the whole thing?
• 10:19
  Speaker 5: No, because Yokahoma City Thunder have been the best team
• 10:23
  Speaker 5: all the year. They're the defending champions, they've got the MVP,
• 10:27
  Speaker 5: and they're kind of like the NBA's version right now
• 10:30
  Speaker 5: of the Kansas City Chiefs in that they get all
• 10:33
  Speaker 5: the calls. You know, their best player, Sga, who's the
• 10:36
  Speaker 5: back to back MVP Award winner, also lives at the
• 10:39
  Speaker 5: free throw line and he learned from Lebron James how
• 10:42
  Speaker 5: to be the greatest flopper right now in the NBA.
• 10:45
  Speaker 5: And it's very frustrating watching a great player spend half
• 10:48
  Speaker 5: the time he's like a hunts point hooker. He's on
• 10:51
  Speaker 5: his back on the floor like more than he's standing up.
• 10:56
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that is a great line, like a hunts point hooker.
• 11:02
  Speaker 5: Yeah. Special hookers.
• 11:07
  Speaker 4: I watched it. I watched that one lady with the
• 11:09
  Speaker 4: black hair. I watched her every week. I felt so
• 11:11
  Speaker 4: badly for old fat guys pulling up in their car
• 11:14
  Speaker 4: and banging this Paul eighty at three o'clock in the morning.
• 11:17
  Speaker 5: Think about that is You and I watched that together
• 11:19
  Speaker 5: and we were both fighting.
• 11:25
  Speaker 3: Oh, that was a great show.
• 11:26
  Speaker 4: That is That is a great reference for folks taking
• 11:29
  Speaker 4: like a hunts Point hooker laying there on the court.
• 11:32
  Speaker 4: You're right, I mean I always thought Blotty Devots was
• 11:35
  Speaker 4: the best at that, even better than Lebron and this
• 11:37
  Speaker 4: guy in Oklahoma City. But they do get all the
• 11:40
  Speaker 4: calls and they are the reigning NBA Chams. So when
• 11:43
  Speaker 4: all that said, we broken this down, I think as
• 11:45
  Speaker 4: well as you possibly can. Regardless whether it's San Antonio
• 11:49
  Speaker 4: or Oklahoma City, the Knicks will be the underdog. But
• 11:52
  Speaker 4: do you feel in your heart of hearts that the
• 11:55
  Speaker 4: Knicks Craig Carton will end this fifty three year drought.
• 12:00
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I think they've got They've got to like saying
• 12:02
  Speaker 5: that we talk about in sports like the mojo right now.
• 12:05
  Speaker 5: You obviously, I'm concerned about nine days off because they
• 12:08
  Speaker 5: that's the worst game they've played the far after the
• 12:10
  Speaker 5: nine days off to game one. You're on the comeback
• 12:13
  Speaker 5: that you allude to you already. But I just think
• 12:15
  Speaker 5: they're on this like Magic Rode right now. I don't
• 12:18
  Speaker 5: think it's going to be a sweet But if you
• 12:20
  Speaker 5: told me that to New York Knicks win the NBA
• 12:23
  Speaker 5: Championship at Madison Square Garden in game six, I think
• 12:27
  Speaker 5: that's tom the table and that's probably what I'm gonna
• 12:30
  Speaker 5: pick to happen.
• 12:30
  Speaker 4: Nixon six and that day we were told earlier by
• 12:33
  Speaker 4: no Him good job by of Nome. That's the same
• 12:35
  Speaker 4: day where France is set to play Senegal in World
• 12:40
  Speaker 4: Cup soccer.
• 12:41
  Speaker 3: Right here in New Jersey.
• 12:42
  Speaker 5: Game is the game sixer. Game four is again for that.
• 12:45
  Speaker 4: Game six World Cup Game six, So you can the
• 12:48
  Speaker 4: same day you're gonna have all those people going to
• 12:51
  Speaker 4: MetLife Stadium in New Jersey and all those people coming
• 12:54
  Speaker 4: to Madison Square Garden in New York City.
• 12:56
  Speaker 3: May not be a bad week Creak to go to Boca.
• 13:00
  Speaker 5: I mean, it's always the good reach to you and
• 13:01
  Speaker 5: to Voker, for sure, But YO, don't forget you know
• 13:05
  Speaker 5: it knows that alluding to you I think is the
• 13:07
  Speaker 5: fact that you can't use Penn station in hat a
• 13:10
  Speaker 5: World Cup ticket.
• 13:11
  Speaker 3: That's correct.
• 13:12
  Speaker 5: So what are they gonna do for everybody that comes
• 13:14
  Speaker 5: in from New Jersey, let's say, uh to go to
• 13:16
  Speaker 5: Madison Square Garden.
• 13:18
  Speaker 4: Well, for what they're gonna do is they're gonna call
• 13:21
  Speaker 4: Eddie Skazari, who's now driving an Uber car.
• 13:26
  Speaker 3: They'll take it to the game, my boy.
• 13:27
  Speaker 4: Any uh, you know, I had the opportunity on Friday,
• 13:30
  Speaker 4: Craig to go up to the Hudson Valley, Rockland County.
• 13:33
  Speaker 4: I'm dear friends with the King of Salt, the tremendous
• 13:36
  Speaker 4: Congressman Mike Lawler. And you know you saw the pictures
• 13:38
  Speaker 4: that heard me talking about if President Trump called me
• 13:40
  Speaker 4: up on stage.
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: It was all it was all pretty cool.
• 13:43
  Speaker 4: But the day actually started with the amazing second year
• 13:46
  Speaker 4: quarterback of my New York football Giants, Jackson Dart, introducing
• 13:51
  Speaker 4: President Trump to the six thousand people inside Rockland County
• 13:55
  Speaker 4: Community College.
• 13:56
  Speaker 3: And it was beautiful.
• 13:57
  Speaker 4: And it didn't take long for douchebags all over the country,
• 14:00
  Speaker 4: including his own teammate, this jerk off of Dual Carter,
• 14:04
  Speaker 4: who's yet to make one good play for the Giants
• 14:06
  Speaker 4: who voted for Kamala Harris. Okay for him to get
• 14:09
  Speaker 4: all over his own quarterback. I know you talked about
• 14:12
  Speaker 4: it with cemac as well, but I was furious on
• 14:15
  Speaker 4: Saturday morning.
• 14:16
  Speaker 3: If you have Dual Carter, shut your mouth. He's on
• 14:19
  Speaker 3: your team.
• 14:20
  Speaker 4: He's a lot of voting like whatever he wants to voting, Like,
• 14:22
  Speaker 4: why would I have Dual Carter do something like that?
• 14:25
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I think that's some generational thing. These kids all
• 14:28
  Speaker 5: grow up living on social media. They can't help themselves,
• 14:30
  Speaker 5: and I think that every thought they had is the
• 14:33
  Speaker 5: greatest thought of all time, so they have to share
• 14:35
  Speaker 5: with everybody. Yeah, the Jackson Dard thing is interesting. I
• 14:38
  Speaker 5: don't care who the president is. Instead, if a sitting president,
• 14:42
  Speaker 5: the leader of the free world, gives you an opportunity
• 14:45
  Speaker 5: to be on the stage with him and introduce him,
• 14:48
  Speaker 5: I think the answer to show is be yes. Now
• 14:50
  Speaker 5: that being said, if you can separated from the fact
• 14:53
  Speaker 5: that Jackson Dard played ten games last year for the Giants,
• 14:57
  Speaker 5: but man has seen living the life of a major
• 14:59
  Speaker 5: New York celebrity, there does come a point where he's
• 15:02
  Speaker 5: got a stret everything down and now concentrate on football.
• 15:06
  Speaker 5: But the fact that so many people, all these couck holded,
• 15:10
  Speaker 5: you know, woke, you know d bags, have a problem
• 15:14
  Speaker 5: with a twenty two year old kid walking on stage
• 15:16
  Speaker 5: and merely saying, ladies and gentlemen the President of the
• 15:20
  Speaker 5: United States. And I thought it was interesting that there's
• 15:23
  Speaker 5: same people that found out to be objectionable or problematic
• 15:27
  Speaker 5: have not said a word about Josh Shacob's allegedly strangling
• 15:32
  Speaker 5: his girlfriend.
• 15:33
  Speaker 4: That's a good point. Queen Bay packer, former Raider running back,
• 15:36
  Speaker 4: Josh Jacobs and all kinds of trouble.
• 15:38
  Speaker 5: Yeah, compare like and I'm not saying I obviously you
• 15:41
  Speaker 5: can't compare the two things, obviously, but it's like, you know,
• 15:45
  Speaker 5: we pick and choose when to become the moral compass
• 15:48
  Speaker 5: of the sports world. But when you have a guy
• 15:50
  Speaker 5: that allegedly strangled, had choked out his girlfriend and he's
• 15:54
  Speaker 5: looking at multiple felon accounts, where's all the outrage about that? Oh,
• 15:58
  Speaker 5: you're right, man, nice to all American kids, walks out
• 16:02
  Speaker 5: stage and merely says ladies and gentlemen to leader of
• 16:07
  Speaker 5: the free world. Oh my god, how did the Giants
• 16:10
  Speaker 5: ever get to win a game? Six months from now
• 16:13
  Speaker 5: because of that, and.
• 16:15
  Speaker 4: As head coach John Hobboll, I think people should know this.
• 16:18
  Speaker 4: If they don't, President Trump actually lobbied hard to the
• 16:22
  Speaker 4: Maries to hire John Horbaugh, who's now the coach of
• 16:25
  Speaker 4: the Giants.
• 16:27
  Speaker 5: John Harbaugh joined his brother Jim at the White House
• 16:30
  Speaker 5: eight months ago.
• 16:31
  Speaker 4: That's right, And I like what Jason Whitlock said yesterday.
• 16:34
  Speaker 4: He said, lts a black guy. He spoke at a
• 16:36
  Speaker 4: Trump rally, nobody said a word. Leveon Bell likes Trump,
• 16:40
  Speaker 4: nobody says a word. He mentioned about five or six
• 16:43
  Speaker 4: black people that love President Trump and Abdul Carter never
• 16:46
  Speaker 4: said a word.
• 16:48
  Speaker 3: But take the white quarterback, and he made it racial.
• 16:50
  Speaker 3: But he's right.
• 16:51
  Speaker 4: I know you're not going to go there, but I am.
• 16:54
  Speaker 4: Jason Whitlock's a black guy. He said, all these black
• 16:56
  Speaker 4: guys who spoke at Trump rallies and including not a word,
• 17:01
  Speaker 4: take the white quarterback. It becomes an issue.
• 17:04
  Speaker 3: Finally, Yeah, because it's lazy.
• 17:05
  Speaker 5: It's just a lazy Now out of the side, it's easy.
• 17:08
  Speaker 5: I'm going to take, you know, have a good looking out,
• 17:10
  Speaker 5: in this case, white quarterback, and I'm going to use
• 17:13
  Speaker 5: it to further my own personal agenda when the reality
• 17:16
  Speaker 5: is that, do you honestly think to fifty three brain
• 17:20
  Speaker 5: dead football players in that locker room, give a rats
• 17:23
  Speaker 5: ass that Jackson dar introduced the president.
• 17:26
  Speaker 3: Like, come on, well, heads, I can't come in yo, yeah,
• 17:30
  Speaker 3: all of.
• 17:30
  Speaker 5: A sudden interested in your geopolitical feater shut up?
• 17:34
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I can't stand out dual Carter now, so I
• 17:36
  Speaker 3: won't move for him.
• 17:38
  Speaker 4: Finally, Craig, have you received your three dozen roses yet?
• 17:42
  Speaker 5: My three dozen roses? No?
• 17:44
  Speaker 4: But i'd like to, well, you should get him, maybe
• 17:46
  Speaker 4: even more than that, because as much as I like
• 17:49
  Speaker 4: this guy, and I like him a lot, okay I do.
• 17:52
  Speaker 4: I think he's a really nice person. I do. He's
• 17:55
  Speaker 4: a great bother. He's a solid radio guy. He's not
• 17:59
  Speaker 4: all that compelling on sorry, but he's solid. He's there
• 18:02
  Speaker 4: every day and he knows his stuff. He was a
• 18:04
  Speaker 4: good TV guy as well, and I think he's a
• 18:06
  Speaker 4: really great New Yorker. But there's no way in a
• 18:08
  Speaker 4: million years that Boomer is sias In even sniffs even
• 18:14
  Speaker 4: sniffs the Hall of Fame without you carrying his sixty
• 18:18
  Speaker 4: five year old ass over that finish line every morning.
• 18:21
  Speaker 4: So he better, he better have you standing right next
• 18:24
  Speaker 4: to him next year in Chicago. Because congratulations to Boomer,
• 18:28
  Speaker 4: but everybody knows without Craig, this never happens. Congratulations Craig Carton.
• 18:34
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I feel like a smaller piece to me got
• 18:36
  Speaker 5: into the National Hall of Fame. Here's what's interesting. So
• 18:41
  Speaker 5: I think the event is early October in Chicago. Right now,
• 18:47
  Speaker 5: he's got to take the guys that weren't kind of show.
• 18:49
  Speaker 5: Now the questioning becomes to you, I get an invite?
• 18:54
  Speaker 5: What clearly, clearly I deserve an invite.
• 18:57
  Speaker 4: Yes, but a little listen quiet, Craig, He's not He's
• 19:02
  Speaker 4: not in the Hall of Pain because of Geo. Okay,
• 19:05
  Speaker 4: let's be honest. He's in the Hall of Pain because
• 19:07
  Speaker 4: of you. So oh, you canna get an invite? That
• 19:10
  Speaker 4: would be like Christopher man dog Russo not inviting Mike
• 19:13
  Speaker 4: brand Sessil when he got in a couple of years ago.
• 19:16
  Speaker 5: My gut is that I do not get an invite
• 19:20
  Speaker 5: to that event.
• 19:20
  Speaker 3: What that is my my gut in the moment.
• 19:25
  Speaker 5: That I do not get an invite to that event,
• 19:28
  Speaker 5: that he keeps it to I imagine Joe Hollander and
• 19:31
  Speaker 5: probably introduce him because he's more responsible from Boo. We're
• 19:34
  Speaker 5: getting into radio and do Monday night football those years ago,
• 19:38
  Speaker 5: and that makes sense to me. Our dear friend Chris
• 19:40
  Speaker 5: Olivera will certainly go to that. I would be shocked
• 19:45
  Speaker 5: if my phone rings with an offer and join them
• 19:48
  Speaker 5: in Chicago.
• 19:48
  Speaker 3: Wow, I'd be shocked if it was the other way around.
• 19:51
  Speaker 4: Now, people order the impression, Craig, and you can pixure
• 19:54
  Speaker 4: it quickly here that after your incident and okay, you've
• 19:57
  Speaker 4: you've paid the price and you've come back bigger and
• 19:59
  Speaker 4: strong than ever.
• 20:00
  Speaker 3: I love you for that, but that you know. Obviously
• 20:03
  Speaker 3: Boomer was mad at the time. We get all that.
• 20:05
  Speaker 3: But you guys have kind of repaired that relationship. Mother.
• 20:08
  Speaker 4: You're great buddies. Nothing, you're hanging out together every night.
• 20:10
  Speaker 4: Certainly the relationship took a hit. It took a hit,
• 20:13
  Speaker 4: But I think most people think you guys are okay.
• 20:15
  Speaker 4: If Boomer doesn't invite you, then you're not okay. That's
• 20:18
  Speaker 4: the bottom line.
• 20:19
  Speaker 5: You're not well, we're okay for sure. Now we're good.
• 20:23
  Speaker 5: I've reached texted each other, I congratulated them. We have
• 20:25
  Speaker 5: some nice words privately with each other about him getting in.
• 20:30
  Speaker 5: But I think it's just a comment. If I don't
• 20:32
  Speaker 5: get invited, gad to me. I'm saying, but him jetting
• 20:40
  Speaker 5: is not about me as much as I have played
• 20:42
  Speaker 5: a role in it. But we'll see, it'll be It'll
• 20:45
  Speaker 5: be very telling if I get the invitation out. I
• 20:49
  Speaker 5: have a quick question for you. Let's say President Trump
• 20:53
  Speaker 5: goes to Game three or four Madison Square Garden. What's
• 20:57
  Speaker 5: the ovation standing ovation? Because he get booed, what's the
• 21:02
  Speaker 5: reaction to it?
• 21:03
  Speaker 4: Well, he'll get booed, I mean, don't forget Ben Stiller
• 21:05
  Speaker 4: will be in the building, and some of these other
• 21:07
  Speaker 4: liberal douchebags, Spike Lee.
• 21:09
  Speaker 3: But I think overall, I.
• 21:11
  Speaker 4: Do think that the majority of the folks, even some
• 21:14
  Speaker 4: liberals at the garden will give him applause, even a
• 21:17
  Speaker 4: standing ovation.
• 21:18
  Speaker 3: So he gets a smattering of booze.
• 21:20
  Speaker 4: Craig Carton, he will, But I think overall, unlike Kathy
• 21:24
  Speaker 4: Holkle at the Ranger game, I think President and Trump
• 21:27
  Speaker 4: will receive a warm welcome from the great folks here
• 21:30
  Speaker 4: in New York City.
• 21:31
  Speaker 5: Now you know what I want him to do. I
• 21:32
  Speaker 5: think this should be great and great theator and no
• 21:35
  Speaker 5: other president of the balls to do it. You know,
• 21:37
  Speaker 5: they bring up their trampolines and the kids drafted him
• 21:40
  Speaker 5: into the acrobatic junks that have time. Yeah, I want
• 21:44
  Speaker 5: President Trump to jump on that tampion junk of basketball
• 21:49
  Speaker 5: and then hang on the rim.
• 21:51
  Speaker 4: Oh god, but he has to do it. That's a
• 21:54
  Speaker 4: great idea. But he can't be wearing his blue suit
• 21:57
  Speaker 4: and red tie. He's got to be wearing like a
• 22:00
  Speaker 4: I don't know, Slie Williams jersey and a pair of
• 22:03
  Speaker 4: tight Nick Schwortz and a nice red you know, the
• 22:05
  Speaker 4: blue and orange bandana. If Trump comes out doing that,
• 22:09
  Speaker 4: how hot will that be?
• 22:11
  Speaker 5: I'd be great. Or just go out there and non
• 22:14
  Speaker 5: slowly knocked down a three point shot and then go
• 22:16
  Speaker 5: back and sit down.
• 22:19
  Speaker 3: Listen.
• 22:20
  Speaker 4: I wouldn't put it past him. And you can probably
• 22:21
  Speaker 4: make the shot as well. I know you can, Craig,
• 22:23
  Speaker 4: and you hit a three point there every time you're
• 22:25
  Speaker 4: on this show. And WPA end as well. Kept me
• 22:28
  Speaker 4: on for twenty five minutes. He was so damn good
• 22:30
  Speaker 4: again this morning. Hall of Fame, Boys of w an
• 22:33

• 23:05

• 23:09
  Speaker 5: about responsible gambling. And they decided to have me play

• 23:16
  Speaker 5: gambling recovery and that's what I'm doing right now.
• 23:19
