- 0:18Speaker 2: I told Nelly yesterday it was a big day in
- 0:20Speaker 2: the Cane household. We found out that Bruno Mar's new
- 0:22Speaker 2: album drops in a month. We're back, baby. You don't
- 0:27Speaker 2: like Bruno, you can get the hell out of here.
- 0:30Speaker 3: Get Motor's face.
- 0:32Speaker 2: Moser's pumped like I am. You just can't see it
- 0:34Speaker 2: in his face.
- 0:35Speaker 4: Uh, the apps listen. I like Bruno Mars. I think
- 0:38Speaker 4: he's awesome. I'm just I feel like Uh, I feel
- 0:42Speaker 4: like I slept under an elephant.
- 0:44Speaker 5: Well, then get out of here, shut up. If you
- 0:49Speaker 5: feel bad, then just take the best stop the show.
- 0:52Speaker 5: Just leave me ruin.
- 0:54Speaker 2: We don't want to ruin the pipes for the apps.
- 0:57Speaker 5: Hearing you complain, I don't really hear it. Just get off.
- 1:01Speaker 3: I haven't complained at all.
- 1:03Speaker 4: Okay, every see you've complained only because you make fun
- 1:08Speaker 4: of my face. I'm more than happy to shut my
- 1:12Speaker 4: hole in regards to feeling like an elephant or under
- 1:15Speaker 4: an elephant.
- 1:17Speaker 3: And just continue on.
- 1:18Speaker 4: You know why, Vic, Because I'm a team player because
- 1:21Speaker 4: I try, because I'm here for you and for the listeners,
- 1:24Speaker 4: because I care.
- 1:27Speaker 5: What do they say about guys who are injured and
- 1:29Speaker 5: they hurt their team when they play injured.
- 1:33Speaker 3: Their studs.
- 1:36Speaker 2: Speaking of the Avs last night, were on the ice
- 1:39Speaker 2: and they lost in overtime to Toronto, a hot Toronto team,
- 1:45Speaker 2: scoring a bunch of goals, not letting in a whole bunch,
- 1:48Speaker 2: but the Avs find a way to tie it late
- 1:51Speaker 2: in the game, send it not to And it's kind
- 1:53Speaker 2: of the same story that we've seen where I know
- 1:56Speaker 2: Bednar chalks this up to I mean, basically, I'm gonna
- 1:59Speaker 2: paraphrase here. He basically calls OT's just random and it
- 2:03Speaker 2: is tough when it's three on three hockey. It's like, hey,
- 2:06Speaker 2: the puck bounce is one way you get a you know,
- 2:10Speaker 2: a two on one or two on oho going the
- 2:12Speaker 2: other way and things you can just get get weird.
- 2:14Speaker 4: Uh.
- 2:15Speaker 2: But what I said to start the show today was
- 2:18Speaker 2: this isn't even a criticism, it's just acknowledging a style
- 2:21Speaker 2: of play that Nathan McKinnon has. I just don't think
- 2:24Speaker 2: he's built very well for overtimes because he is so
- 2:26Speaker 2: hyper aggressive on things. He will take chances where maybe
- 2:30Speaker 2: it's better to play a little bit more conservative than
- 2:33Speaker 2: his style sort of dictates, you know, trying to go
- 2:37Speaker 2: one on one with the guy. All it takes is
- 2:39Speaker 2: exactly what happened. Little poke check grab the puck, goes
- 2:42Speaker 2: the other direction in this game over, especially with like
- 2:44Speaker 2: sixty seconds left in ot you're this close to a shootout,
- 2:48Speaker 2: maybe look for a better opportunity. But that's just kind
- 2:50Speaker 2: of the way that he plays. And I don't know
- 2:52Speaker 2: if that's something that's criticizable.
- 2:56Speaker 3: All right, let me let me go back here a
- 2:58Speaker 3: little bit, and I'm gonna agree with the coach in
- 3:01Speaker 3: this regard.
- 3:03Speaker 4: Watching back to that highlight of the goal that didn't
- 3:06Speaker 4: go in for the Avalanche Brett in Toronto, Ontario, Canada
- 3:12Speaker 4: this morning, they could be having the exact same conversation, Rando,
- 3:16Speaker 4: because the Avs almost did to the Maple Leafs what
- 3:22Speaker 4: the Maple Leafs did to the Avalanche, because it worked
- 3:25Speaker 4: before Marty Nachius and Nathan McKinnon were streaking up the
- 3:29Speaker 4: ice into two on one and McKinnon's one timer. Do
- 3:32Speaker 4: you know thin the shaft is of a goal stick?
- 3:37Speaker 4: When you get up, you know, by the you know,
- 3:39Speaker 4: halfway up to stick toward the knob.
- 3:41Speaker 3: Do you know how Finn that is. It's about like that.
- 3:45Speaker 3: It's about like that.
- 3:46Speaker 4: Okay, it's thin between like an inch I think an
- 3:49Speaker 4: inch one point one five or point eight eight to
- 3:51Speaker 4: one point one five, whatever it may be. It's very
- 3:54Speaker 4: thin and you get it to the knob. McKinnon fired
- 3:58Speaker 4: that park wool was beaten. He just threw his goal
- 4:02Speaker 4: stick in the air and it went off. He tried
- 4:06Speaker 4: to get it with his blocker, which is so funny.
- 4:09Speaker 4: But it went off the goal stick and hit the
- 4:11Speaker 4: underside of the crossbar.
- 4:14Speaker 3: And bounced on the goal line.
- 4:16Speaker 4: And I think Nat just thought it was in because
- 4:18Speaker 4: he's right there to put home to an empty net,
- 4:21Speaker 4: and he sort of stops for a second and then
- 4:23Speaker 4: the puck skips through him when he realizes that it
- 4:25Speaker 4: didn't go in. I mean, that's the difference between winning
- 4:28Speaker 4: that game and losing that game. Yeah, and the fact
- 4:31Speaker 4: that both teams, the fact that both teams go forward
- 4:33Speaker 4: in overtime, the fact that both teams are actually trying
- 4:37Speaker 4: to score the pucket.
- 4:38Speaker 3: You got four minutes of up and down.
- 4:41Speaker 4: And you know, change hockey, firewagon hockey, change on the fly,
- 4:45Speaker 4: pull it out, reload, get.
- 4:46Speaker 5: Back in firefirefire.
- 4:49Speaker 3: I love that stuff.
- 4:51Speaker 4: You ain't gonna get me to complain this morning. Dudes,
- 4:53Speaker 4: they're nineteen oho and three on the whole ice. You
- 4:57Speaker 4: want to bitch about that? You want to grab your
- 4:59Speaker 4: dogs and run for the hills and go hide like
- 5:02Speaker 4: Freddy Katsu and go ahead, who are you talking to? Well,
- 5:06Speaker 4: that's exactly what Vic sounded like yesterday. If you want
- 5:08Speaker 4: to be Freddy cats at nineteen oh and three on
- 5:10Speaker 4: the whole weis, then you go ahead and do that.
- 5:12Speaker 4: Go live in your little bomb shelter.
- 5:15Speaker 5: What the hell are you talking about, dude?
- 5:18Speaker 3: I don't know.
- 5:21Speaker 5: I might get off the show. Uh take him to
- 5:27Speaker 5: the game here. You might have to just go to sleep.
- 5:31Speaker 5: What I'm just making crap up.
- 5:32Speaker 3: Right now, Brett, I don't disagree with you.
- 5:34Speaker 4: McKinnon tried to bang it off the boards to himself,
- 5:38Speaker 4: and I'm gonna credit William Kneelander for making a good pickoff.
- 5:41Speaker 3: You can get a piece of that picked it off.
- 5:43Speaker 3: It was a very good play.
- 5:44Speaker 4: And you look who's out there, Natus and McKinnon, Kneelander
- 5:47Speaker 4: at Matthews.
- 5:48Speaker 3: I mean, you're talking about.
- 5:50Speaker 4: The highest end of the high end of the National
- 5:53Speaker 4: Hockey League. I mean, these are studs and they're gonna
- 5:57Speaker 4: go back and forth and they're gonna just punch and
- 5:59Speaker 4: CounterPunch on not. Look, the second period was ugly, the
- 6:03Speaker 4: last power play was ugly. Other than that, I can't
- 6:05Speaker 4: really complain about anything. It's a fun hockey game to call.
- 6:09Speaker 4: These teams will hook up in a couple of weeks
- 6:12Speaker 4: in Toronto and we'll see what the Evs can do there.
- 6:16Speaker 2: Yes, just to be clear, MOJ, there is no criticism
- 6:21Speaker 2: of the Avs. They are in golden position. They are
- 6:24Speaker 2: still eleven points up on the second place team in
- 6:26Speaker 2: the league. They still came away with the point last night.
- 6:30Speaker 2: It's again, I was just acknowledging that his style of
- 6:33Speaker 2: play is very different from most Like, if that's ninety
- 6:37Speaker 2: eight percent of other players in the league, they probably
- 6:40Speaker 2: wheel that back out, They reset and they try and
- 6:43Speaker 2: find another way to enter the zone. And McKennon just like, Nope,
- 6:46Speaker 2: I'm good enough. I can beat this guy one on one,
- 6:47Speaker 2: and every once in a while he gets his pocket
- 6:49Speaker 2: picked playing that style. That's all but the Avs. Yes,
- 6:52Speaker 2: they are. Nobody who is complaining about where the Avs
- 6:56Speaker 2: are right now, especially on the home eyes where they
- 6:58Speaker 2: have been dominant. Now, Vic, you sent us something yesterday.
- 7:05Speaker 2: I don't know what this is because I don't have
- 7:07Speaker 2: the uh TikTok, so I couldn't listen to it. But
- 7:11Speaker 2: this is gorilla sports, Dan Essel, you want to set.
- 7:13Speaker 5: The Yeah, Dennis went on with the Tom Green on
- 7:16Speaker 5: his podcast and I just found it so curious. I'm
- 7:19Speaker 5: listening to this and I'm thinking to myself, my God,
- 7:22Speaker 5: he's right, because I will always defend. I think that
- 7:27Speaker 5: the modern game, in every game football, basketball, baseball, hockey,
- 7:32Speaker 5: it's played, the athletes today are just much more athletic.
- 7:37Speaker 5: I mean, genetics took over, right, They just are the
- 7:39Speaker 5: better athletes today. But when I hear people say that
- 7:43Speaker 5: the pace is a higher pace today than it was
- 7:47Speaker 5: in yesteryear, I disagree wholeheartedly. I'm a child of the eighties.
- 7:51Speaker 5: I grew up watching Doug Moe's Nuggets against the Lakers,
- 7:55Speaker 5: Showtime Lakers, right, Pat Riley's Showtime Lakers Doug Mo'snuggets. You
- 8:00Speaker 5: will never play at a faster pace than those two teams.
- 8:03Speaker 5: Never there's nobody in the league right now that plays
- 8:06Speaker 5: at a pace that those two teams played at. Nobody.
- 8:08Speaker 5: So when I hear people say the pace is just
- 8:11Speaker 5: insane and that's why these guys are getting hurt, fooey
- 8:14Speaker 5: on that. And you want an example, listen to a
- 8:17Speaker 5: Danissel told Doug Green, Tom Green. And for those of
- 8:21Speaker 5: you who don't know who Dan Issel is, he's one
- 8:23Speaker 5: of the great legends of all time. He's a Hall
- 8:25Speaker 5: of Famer. Played for the Nuggets in the eighties. Listen
- 8:29Speaker 5: to what he said about pace of play and how
- 8:32Speaker 5: we skew that whole mindset today.
- 8:35Speaker 6: Of what coach in the history of NBA had the
- 8:39Speaker 6: most pace in a basketball Doug Doug Mo.
- 8:43Speaker 5: Doug Mo.
- 8:43Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 8:44Speaker 6: So I when I heard that, I just picked a
- 8:47Speaker 6: year at random. Eighty one eighty two was the year
- 8:50Speaker 6: that I picked starting five. Alex English played eighty two games,
- 8:56Speaker 6: Keiky Vanderway played eighty two games. Tr Done played eighty
- 9:02Speaker 6: two games. There must have been a horse race on
- 9:06Speaker 6: that I wanted to watch because I only played eighty
- 9:08Speaker 6: one games and Billy McKinney was the starting point guard.
- 9:12Speaker 6: He played eighty one games. Five starters that missed two
- 9:17Speaker 6: total games. So don't tell me the pace of the
- 9:20Speaker 6: game is leading to the injuries.
- 9:23Speaker 5: Hey, you can think whatever you want. Two games missed
- 9:28Speaker 5: among all five starters two. That is absurd, That is
- 9:32Speaker 5: unreal that you cannot tell me that the game has
- 9:36Speaker 5: changed that much. I'm reading on a twitch feed. Well,
- 9:39Speaker 5: centers didn't close out three years ago. What are you
- 9:41Speaker 5: talking about? What are you talking about? Centers didn't close out?
- 9:45Speaker 5: I remember danis Al at the top of the key pump,
- 9:48Speaker 5: faking center after center and going to the hole. Center's
- 9:51Speaker 5: closed out. The game hasn't changed that much. What's changed?
- 9:56Speaker 5: Why in that season he just referenced five starters played
- 10:01Speaker 5: two games missed two? How does it change that much? I? Oh,
- 10:07Speaker 5: those guys are and mailmen? What do you mean you
- 10:11Speaker 5: know not? Oh, I'm gonna get so angry. Oh my god,
- 10:16Speaker 5: Alex English was a plumber. Alex English, if he played today,
- 10:20Speaker 5: he'd light up the circuit. He light it up. Do
- 10:27Speaker 5: not tell me that those guys were lesser athletes. They
- 10:30Speaker 5: were the athletes of their generation. Then miss games.
- 10:34Speaker 2: Well, here's it's kind of twofold. The one thing I
- 10:37Speaker 2: do agree with the way it's changed, the most it
- 10:39Speaker 2: is like it is a positionless sort of game. Now
- 10:42Speaker 2: there's the guys that are doing kind of everything wherever
- 10:45Speaker 2: there used to be like roles that each position had.
- 10:48Speaker 2: That's kind of changed. But the injury thing is really weird.
- 10:54Speaker 2: Like the Nuggets don't have guys that are that are
- 10:57Speaker 2: resting due to load management. It's inies. And I was like,
- 11:01Speaker 2: how how did everybody avoid that over the course of
- 11:04Speaker 2: a full season that he's talking about. That's what's crazy
- 11:07Speaker 2: to me. What's changed there?
- 11:10Speaker 5: Like how overtraining?
- 11:12Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, like AG didn't miss a month and
- 11:16Speaker 2: a half because he felt like he wanted a rest.
- 11:19Speaker 2: He couldn't play hamstring I wonder, Okay, I wonder nobody
- 11:23Speaker 2: nobody missed.
- 11:24Speaker 5: Nobody missed that kind of time for muscle pulls back then.
- 11:27Speaker 5: That didn't happen. Okay, Vic, that didn't listen to me.
- 11:31Speaker 5: Listen to me. That didn't happen. That did not happen.
- 11:35Speaker 5: You played.
- 11:38Speaker 2: But if you've got a Grade two hams hamstring strain,
- 11:41Speaker 2: like you can't just grit your way through it. Ag
- 11:44Speaker 2: tried in Game seven last year and we all saw
- 11:46Speaker 2: like he couldn't move. I mean, that's what I That's
- 11:49Speaker 2: how I'm really curious how that's even possible, to be
- 11:54Speaker 2: honest with you, Bret.
- 11:54Speaker 4: You probably I hope that a lot of the listeners
- 11:57Speaker 4: out there also know that Dan was not only head
- 12:00Speaker 4: coach of the Denver Nuggets, but also became the general
- 12:04Speaker 4: manager of the Denver Nuggets as well into the two
- 12:06Speaker 4: thousands and so on and so forth, so you know
- 12:10Speaker 4: he has seen and knows basketball like nobody's business. I
- 12:16Speaker 4: just find it interesting because Vic, I don't disagree with you,
- 12:20Speaker 4: and I wonder how many of those games in terms
- 12:22Speaker 4: of the eighty two, the eighty two, the eighty two,
- 12:24Speaker 4: the eighty one, the eighty one, those guys actually did
- 12:27Speaker 4: play through things that guys today would sit out for
- 12:30Speaker 4: or may be made to.
- 12:30Speaker 3: Sit out for.
- 12:31Speaker 5: I saw it firsthand.
- 12:33Speaker 3: I saw, But at the same time, it's the first suffering.
- 12:38Speaker 5: I saw guys play through injuries all the time, but
- 12:42Speaker 5: some injuries that you can't play through.
- 12:44Speaker 4: I've also seen guys blown out these yeah, and blown
- 12:48Speaker 4: out achilles and blown.
- 12:49Speaker 5: Out the achilles. Thing is, you know, I'm going to
- 12:55Speaker 5: read some of the texts that I think are verifiable
- 12:58Speaker 5: and justifiable and not that, not that, not that that
- 13:00Speaker 5: you guys are talking about. Those guys were plumbers and mailman.
- 13:03Speaker 5: Shut up. Shut the hell up. Those are coming from
- 13:06Speaker 5: young people who weren't around back then. Shut up. Let
- 13:10Speaker 5: me read you something that I think are verifiable here
- 13:13Speaker 5: and I can I can make an argument, vic one
- 13:16Speaker 5: large difference. Those guys back then didn't have a million
- 13:18Speaker 5: AAU games, all the miles on their legs. You're right,
- 13:22Speaker 5: three hundred and sixty day training, you're right. They played
- 13:25Speaker 5: multiple sports. They didn't have the same miles on their legs.
- 13:28Speaker 5: Maybe that's a factor, could be. Now that's a good argument.
- 13:34Speaker 5: Let me read this one. NBA players of old were
- 13:37Speaker 5: not as muscular. Yeah, tell Calvin nat that. Tell Carl Malone.
- 13:43Speaker 5: Karl Malone wasn't muscular. Yeah he wasn't muscular.
- 13:47Speaker 3: Yeah. Tell it to keem Olaijuan.
- 13:49Speaker 5: That guy was just ye, he was just a skinny dude.
- 13:56Speaker 5: Give me some.
- 13:57Speaker 2: Reason, Okay, just for the sake of argument. The athleticism
- 14:01Speaker 2: of the the taller and lankier guys didn't seem to
- 14:06Speaker 2: exist as much and be as prevalent back then. Could
- 14:09Speaker 2: that be a part of it? The guys are six
- 14:11Speaker 2: foot eleven and they're running. You know, a fast break
- 14:14Speaker 2: down the floor, that sort of thing.
- 14:18Speaker 5: Was running at a fast break and he was six foot eleven.
- 14:20Speaker 2: He didn't look like Yannis, that is what I'm saying.
- 14:23Speaker 5: Yeah he did, Yeah he did. I mean see, I
- 14:26Speaker 5: mean you're he he can't speak out of turn. No, No,
- 14:30Speaker 5: you don't. You don't understand because you did not see
- 14:34Speaker 5: did he? He was the most Let me tell you
- 14:37Speaker 5: something about bro He was one of the greatest athletes
- 14:40Speaker 5: to ever grab a basketball.
- 14:41Speaker 2: Yes, I understood, I got it. There's a lot of
- 14:45Speaker 2: people like Yannis now that are six foot ten, six
- 14:47Speaker 2: foot eleven that have speed and athleticism. Again, I'm not
- 14:50Speaker 2: alleging anything. I'm just asking could that be a factor?
- 14:54Speaker 2: You don't need to yell at me. It's a question,
- 14:56Speaker 2: that's all I'm saying. It seems to be a lot
- 14:59Speaker 2: more prev and that seven five guys like Wemby are
- 15:03Speaker 2: able to run the floor the way that he does.
- 15:04Speaker 2: That's all I'm saying. I remember back in the day,
- 15:07Speaker 2: looked like Sean Bradley and George Marason.
- 15:10Speaker 3: Yeah, get off his case.
- 15:13Speaker 5: Is that fair?
- 15:14Speaker 2: Sean Bradley and George Marisson were the seven footers. I
- 15:17Speaker 2: kind of remember growing up watching it.
- 15:19Speaker 3: Yeah, well, George Myrason had a he's he had a
- 15:22Speaker 3: condition that made him big. Bradley was just a.
- 15:26Speaker 4: Big goofy Gang's David without the athleticism.
- 15:32Speaker 5: David Robinson was the seventh footer who was muscular, and
- 15:36Speaker 5: he ran the floor. So I don't, I do not
- 15:40Speaker 5: want to hear this running the floor crap. They all
- 15:42Speaker 5: ran the floor. The floor size didn't change. The dimensions
- 15:46Speaker 5: of basketball did not change. Running did not change. Nothing changed.
- 15:50Speaker 5: You know what changed more injuries. Why I'm asking a
- 15:53Speaker 5: legit question and I'm getting crap responses. I'm sorry, I'm sorry,
- 16:01Speaker 5: but today's a day where I'm leaning on the audience.
- 16:05Speaker 5: I'm leaning on all of you. You tell me why.
- 16:07Speaker 5: In nineteen eighty one, Dannis will just reference the season
- 16:10Speaker 5: in which all five Nuggets starters, all five mister combined
- 16:15Speaker 5: two games and they ran and ran. They were the
- 16:19Speaker 5: highest pace team in the NBA, and they ran their
- 16:22Speaker 5: butts off and they played their butts off. I was there,
- 16:26Speaker 5: I saw it.
- 16:27Speaker 2: All of that is fair, and that's fine, but that
- 16:30Speaker 2: doesn't address because it is weird. Guys. Again, just look
- 16:34Speaker 2: at this Nuggets team and how injured they are are
- 16:37Speaker 2: you telling me if this was back in the eighties,
- 16:39Speaker 2: all these guys will be playing right now through these injuries.
- 16:41Speaker 2: That's what I'm asking.
- 16:42Speaker 5: I'm not see No, I'm not blaming the guys for
- 16:44Speaker 5: getting injured. I'm wondering why are the injuries more pronounced today.
- 16:48Speaker 5: That's the only question I'm asking. Why it's not because
- 16:52Speaker 5: of pace? That was the argument here, the argument Steve
- 16:55Speaker 5: Kerr made. This all started with the Steve Kerr comments.
- 16:57Speaker 5: Steve Kerr says, well, the pace of plays changed the game,
- 17:00Speaker 5: North has So what are you talking about? Pace has
- 17:02Speaker 5: never changed. Pace has been the same all the time.
- 17:05Speaker 5: Has nothing to do with pace. Well, you're saying everybody's
- 17:08Speaker 5: slow down. That's slowed down. Guys, slow on your pace
- 17:10Speaker 5: and everybody's gonna be fine. Do you think Nikola Jokic
- 17:14Speaker 5: injuring his knee had anything to do with pace? Nothing?
- 17:19Speaker 5: That's my argument, that's Dan Thistle's argument. Why are we
- 17:23Speaker 5: having so many of these injuries today? Don't blame it
- 17:27Speaker 5: on Oh, they're just playing so hard. Give me a break.
- 17:32Speaker 2: H three H three five four H nine two five.
- 17:34Speaker 2: We got another keyword against an AVS ticket Tuesday, So
- 17:38Speaker 2: we'll have another key word every hour on the twenties,

- 18:50Speaker 2: witnessed our great sponsor, Papa Murphy's Delicious Pizza, and I
- 18:56Speaker 2: saw another commercial another pizza establishment. Revolves are in a
- 19:03Speaker 2: hut and Tom Brady's the one carrying pizzas to people.
- 19:06Speaker 2: And I go, all right, if you just want a
- 19:08Speaker 2: bold face lie to me about your sponsor pitching pizzas
- 19:14Speaker 2: to me. I know one thing for sure, Tom Brady's
- 19:17Speaker 2: hands has not felt pizza grease in thirty years.
- 19:20Speaker 4: Let's be honest about it, right. If you show up
- 19:24Speaker 4: with the Rocky Mountain Men's Clinic on any given day,
- 19:26Speaker 4: you may.
- 19:27Speaker 6: See me there.
- 19:28Speaker 2: It's totally true, because I go there, you come to
- 19:31Speaker 2: my house, You're like, man, this this house. These carpets
- 19:34Speaker 2: smell nicely. You know what your zero res That's.
- 19:36Speaker 4: Why Tom Brady, that mother trucker, won't even eat a strawberry.
- 19:44Speaker 4: You're telling me scarfing down stuffs consultant.
- 19:47Speaker 2: Insultant. Yeah, come on, you know what he didn't do
- 19:50Speaker 2: in that commercial eat it? Because of course he didn't.
- 19:54Speaker 2: Uh anyway, So I'm in there. Look at it, guys,
- 19:59Speaker 2: So I want to talk about this. I asked this
- 20:03Speaker 2: in the middle of the college football season. Do you
- 20:06Speaker 2: guys happen to remember when I asked this question. I said, Hey,
- 20:10Speaker 2: outside of Jordan's Seaton, how many all Big twelve players
- 20:14Speaker 2: to see you have? And here was the response. They
- 20:21Speaker 2: ended up having two. By the way, I just looked
- 20:23Speaker 2: it up again to make sure and confirm who are
- 20:26Speaker 2: the others? So the Big twelve does three? All Big
- 20:29Speaker 2: twelve teams three of them. Jordan Seaton was on there
- 20:34Speaker 2: and Omar and Miller was on there. Both of them
- 20:37Speaker 2: are currently going to play for another school.
- 20:41Speaker 5: Did Amari Miller end up at ASU is?
- 20:43Speaker 2: I don't think it's been decided yet where he's at.
- 20:46Speaker 2: Maybe I'm wrong, but last I am still in there.
- 20:50Speaker 5: I am shocked and somewhat saddened by this. Jordan's Seaton
- 20:53Speaker 5: use that he is entering the portal because it was
- 20:57Speaker 5: only a week ago where he went on social media
- 21:00Speaker 5: was trying to recruit another offensive lineman from another team.
- 21:03Speaker 2: Yeah, by the way, it is a su for Marion Miller.
- 21:07Speaker 5: Okay, So he was on social media one week ago
- 21:12Speaker 5: helping recruit basically, and he's played that role for see
- 21:15Speaker 5: you ever since he got there, right, you know, be
- 21:17Speaker 5: a dog? What was the what was the line he used?
- 21:21Speaker 3: Yeah?
- 21:22Speaker 2: Running back again? There, Nelly, the one you just played
- 21:24Speaker 2: running back again.
- 21:25Speaker 5: Let's hear it. What was the exact line?
- 21:28Speaker 3: How do you explain the past couple of weeks to
- 21:29Speaker 3: recruits in their parents?
- 21:31Speaker 7: I don't have to explain it. They sew it. See,
- 21:34Speaker 7: you got to understand. If you a dog, you want
- 21:37Speaker 7: to come here and right d rome. If you a cat,
- 21:40Speaker 7: you look at the scoreboard and you run.
- 21:44Speaker 5: Your Jordan Seton had a lime stick. He had a
- 21:49Speaker 5: line that he used to try to get people to
- 21:51Speaker 5: come to see you.
- 21:52Speaker 2: Yeah, I know what you're talking about.
- 21:53Speaker 5: Yeah, and that was a couple of years ago. He
- 21:55Speaker 5: used it. The point I'm getting at and you know, listen, man,
- 21:59Speaker 5: we're in that era. What happened between yesterday and a
- 22:04Speaker 5: week or two weeks ago? What happened?
- 22:06Speaker 3: And I'll tell you money, money, exactly what happened.
- 22:11Speaker 5: Somebody said, really, I can make you be a dog
- 22:16Speaker 5: or a cat. How much? How much would it cost me?
- 22:18Speaker 2: Two different beat writers for the Florida Gators said this.
- 22:23Speaker 2: Florida booster reveals two point five million is the asking
- 22:26Speaker 2: christ for Jordan Seaton, who hit the portal yesterday. Wow,
- 22:30Speaker 2: the former IMG Academy five stars projected as a future
- 22:33Speaker 2: first rounder.
- 22:35Speaker 5: So you're the dog or a cat? Right? Well? How
- 22:37Speaker 5: much would I have to pay? How much would I
- 22:39Speaker 5: have to pay you to transfer from dog status to cat?
- 22:44Speaker 5: And the answer will be how much he gets to
- 22:46Speaker 5: go to Florida here.
- 22:48Speaker 2: Well, and here's the concern that I have. You are
- 22:50Speaker 2: not very talented. Last year, you had two players that
- 22:53Speaker 2: ended up making all Big twelve teams. By the way,
- 22:54Speaker 2: did you know that's the same amount that Oklahoma State
- 22:56Speaker 2: had just for reference. Both of those guys are now gone.
- 23:02Speaker 2: I know that they have gotten a whole bunch of
- 23:04Speaker 2: all conference guys from other conferences in the transfer portal
- 23:06Speaker 2: that are coming here this year, because that's just college
- 23:08Speaker 2: football now.
- 23:09Speaker 4: But it's what's amazing is that every guy, Brett, every guy,
- 23:17Speaker 4: It's like it's like you have the NFL and every
- 23:20Speaker 4: year everybody's a free agent.
- 23:24Speaker 3: That's completely unsustainable.
- 23:27Speaker 2: That you're taking this overall, hang on, hang on, you're
- 23:30Speaker 2: taking this as like an overall college football thing. I
- 23:32Speaker 2: want to go.
- 23:33Speaker 3: I'm taking this as a problem for SeeU. Yeah, I'm
- 23:35Speaker 3: the major problem.
- 23:36Speaker 2: I want to limit this to Dion because again, the
- 23:40Speaker 2: concern I have heading into year four for Dion here
- 23:43Speaker 2: is the same concern I had the second hist press
- 23:45Speaker 2: conference introductory press conference happened. I said, I don't know
- 23:49Speaker 2: what kind of coach he is overall, I don't know
- 23:51Speaker 2: what kind of staff he's going to put together, and
- 23:54Speaker 2: I am willing to live with games where you play
- 23:56Speaker 2: the upper tier of college football, you might be at
- 23:58Speaker 2: a coaching disadvantage, could be because let's be honest, Dion
- 24:02Speaker 2: hasn't been coaching all that long, a couple of years
- 24:04Speaker 2: at Jackson State and then here, but you were sold
- 24:09Speaker 2: that he was going to be ultra recruiter. I keep
- 24:12Speaker 2: going back to that first meeting he had with the
- 24:14Speaker 2: then Carl Derell and Mike Sandford players where he walked
- 24:17Speaker 2: in he basically said, get ready to hit the portal
- 24:19Speaker 2: because I got my own baggage. And it's Louis right.
- 24:21Speaker 2: That whole conversation that happened, and I'm looking around and
- 24:25Speaker 2: I'm going, well, then where's the Louis, where's the talent?
- 24:29Speaker 2: Because you had one guy that was a guaranteed talent
- 24:32Speaker 2: in Jordan's seat, and that guy is probably going to
- 24:34Speaker 2: be a first round draft pick. He's now gone. At
- 24:38Speaker 2: what point do we start to evaluate and set standards
- 24:42Speaker 2: for what Dion needs to accomplish here. This is year four,
- 24:47Speaker 2: This isn't brand new anymore. This isn't the turnaround. It
- 24:51Speaker 2: should be turned right. And I think if you're heading
- 24:53Speaker 2: into year four with the college football coach and your
- 24:55Speaker 2: goal is, man, I hope we win or I hope
- 24:58Speaker 2: we get to a bowl game. That doesn't sound high
- 25:01Speaker 2: enough for me, does it for you? You're four of
- 25:06Speaker 2: a head coach in college football and you're like, man,
- 25:08Speaker 2: I hope we win six games this year.
- 25:11Speaker 3: Bro, I guess I had higher hopes. I I vic
- 25:14Speaker 3: I guess I had higher hopes.
- 25:16Speaker 4: But I also understand the modern realities of college football
- 25:21Speaker 4: and the lack of funding compared to others. I mean,
- 25:24Speaker 4: it's so I'm not I'm not saying it's I'm not
- 25:26Speaker 4: saying it's an excuse. I'm saying that it's almost like
- 25:30Speaker 4: the Rockies trying to compete with the Dodgers.
- 25:32Speaker 3: You know, look, I'm not.
- 25:34Speaker 5: Excusing you do that.
- 25:36Speaker 2: Don't you do that? Why because Deon's one of the
- 25:38Speaker 2: highest paid coaches in the country.
- 25:40Speaker 4: But it's not it's not even it's not about that anymore.
- 25:42Speaker 4: It's about paying the players. It's about how many players
- 25:46Speaker 4: you can pay.
- 25:47Speaker 5: Well, that's a decision so you needs to make Then
- 25:49Speaker 5: if it's about paying Greed, then then you got to
- 25:53Speaker 5: make a decision on who do you want to pay.
- 25:55Speaker 5: The trouble I'm having with college football right now is
- 25:58Speaker 5: I don't know. I don't know how to go about
- 26:01Speaker 5: my expectations during the course of an offseason. It's a
- 26:05Speaker 5: microwavable product. It went from a throw it in the
- 26:09Speaker 5: oven develop players. Let's see what we got here in
- 26:12Speaker 5: a couple of years too. What do you need? What
- 26:15Speaker 5: do you want? You want Salisbury steak? All right, pop
- 26:16Speaker 5: it in there. It's become microwaveable. I mean, look at
- 26:19Speaker 5: Indiana for crying out loud, Just pop it in Texas
- 26:22Speaker 5: Tech for crying out loud, Just pop it in the microwave.
- 26:25Speaker 5: Boom into contender. And I don't know who these guys are.
- 26:29Speaker 5: Nobody knows who these guys are. Half the time you're
- 26:32Speaker 5: getting dudes in the portal. They're all over the place,
- 26:34Speaker 5: And you need a receiver, you need a defensive back,
- 26:36Speaker 5: you need a lineman, you need a defensive lineman. Boom
- 26:39Speaker 5: one pops up. And how do you how do you
- 26:42Speaker 5: follow your team? How do you track your team? It's hard,
- 26:45Speaker 5: it's hard. It become a lot more difficult.
- 26:48Speaker 2: Here's what Texas is. It's not the same college football
- 26:51Speaker 2: you grew up with, Brett. There are no expectations because
- 26:53Speaker 2: you don't know anymore. And I'm just telling you I'm
- 26:55Speaker 2: not I don't subscribe to that. I know things can
- 26:58Speaker 2: be different. I get that. I know that it's harder
- 27:01Speaker 2: to project a year to year what exactly your team
- 27:04Speaker 2: is going to be. But if you want to be
- 27:05Speaker 2: a team who's competitive, there is no like, hey we
- 27:10Speaker 2: might win two games this year. We might win You
- 27:13Speaker 2: have to have a higher standard than that, especially with
- 27:16Speaker 2: what you're paying your coach, Like what do you want
- 27:18Speaker 2: to be? And that's the real question. And you would
- 27:21Speaker 2: think if you're paying your coach ten million dollars a year,
- 27:24Speaker 2: you want to be a player. You want to be
- 27:26Speaker 2: one of the teams that's talked about in Mallyhood.
- 27:31Speaker 5: Let me offer this perspective just to prove that I'm
- 27:34Speaker 5: not all Boomer on this whole back in the day.
- 27:37Speaker 5: I love I love than you found anil era. For
- 27:42Speaker 5: this reason, it is giving us opportunities to see teams
- 27:46Speaker 5: like Indiana all of a sudden emerge as a national powerhouse.
- 27:51Speaker 5: We would have never ever listen to me ever, ever, ever,
- 27:54Speaker 5: ever seen that in the old system. Ever, Texas Tech
- 27:58Speaker 5: is suddenly again. I mentioned Texas Tech. Other teams that
- 28:02Speaker 5: are climbing the ranks. Vanderbilt became a national force. Freaking
- 28:08Speaker 5: Vanderbilt in the format of the SEC for years. The
- 28:12Speaker 5: rest of the country has caught up to the SEC.
- 28:15Speaker 5: It used to be one league and that's it because
- 28:17Speaker 5: they paid everybody illegally. Now it's all legal. The SEC
- 28:22Speaker 5: was the best league at cheating for years. They were
- 28:25Speaker 5: the best cheating league. We can all acknowledge that, right.
- 28:28Speaker 2: Right, sure we all know this.
- 28:30Speaker 5: Yeah, well everybody could cheat now, but it's legal. I
- 28:35Speaker 5: love it. I love it. It offers a new sense
- 28:38Speaker 5: of competition, but it still needs to be handled properly,
- 28:43Speaker 5: and it's still a little crazy out there. And the
- 28:45Speaker 5: fact that these players don't have contracts. Did you guys
- 28:48Speaker 5: see that there's one player that just hit the portal
- 28:51Speaker 5: that will play for his fourth FBS school in four years. Fourth.
- 28:57Speaker 5: That's ridiculous, man.
- 29:00Speaker 4: I get did you see did you see somebody said,
- 29:03Speaker 4: you know when they do those player introductions in the
- 29:06Speaker 4: NFL games, you know, Mark Moser, Sacramento State, that kind
- 29:10Speaker 4: of thing, it's gonna be Mark Moser, you know, Uh,
- 29:14Speaker 4: I'll call it Junior College, Appalachian State, you know, h
- 29:19Speaker 4: Vanderbilt Florida.
- 29:22Speaker 5: You know, it's like, what do you see? You're almost
- 29:24Speaker 5: moderated as they as they do, they work, as they
- 29:27Speaker 5: work their way up the up the food chain.
- 29:30Speaker 3: It's kind of funny. Man's just funny, you know.
- 29:33Speaker 2: But just to go back to it, it's I don't
- 29:36Speaker 2: think I would accept if somebody said, I really don't
- 29:38Speaker 2: have expectations for what I think see you should be.
- 29:41Speaker 2: You have to or us what's the point? What are
- 29:44Speaker 2: we doing? I know a lot of people always go
- 29:47Speaker 2: back to that well of the amount of money that
- 29:49Speaker 2: Dion brings in for the university and all of that,
- 29:51Speaker 2: and I'm like, you're a fan, you don't see any
- 29:52Speaker 2: of that money. Your expectation is wins and losses and
- 29:57Speaker 2: what makes you happy from that standpoint, And again, I mean, Vick,
- 30:01Speaker 2: you brought it up. If Vanderbilt can become a competitor
- 30:05Speaker 2: in the SEC when they're playing against the exactly you're
- 30:08Speaker 2: in the Big twelve.
- 30:10Speaker 5: Yeah, you have no excuse twelve if and this goes
- 30:16Speaker 5: to basketball too, this goes to basketball Nebraska. Have you
- 30:20Speaker 5: seen their basketball team?
- 30:21Speaker 2: They're still unbeaten?
- 30:22Speaker 5: I think, yeah. Have you seen there? Have you seen
- 30:25Speaker 5: by U's basketball team? Have you seen some of these
- 30:28Speaker 5: hoops teams that years ago? No one's competing with Duke
- 30:33Speaker 5: in Kansas and the same old, same old. It's a
- 30:36Speaker 5: different game today. Man. I like that. I like that
- 30:41Speaker 5: it's opened an opportunity for all these different schools. But
- 30:44Speaker 5: now it has to be somewhat policed. Man, it's craziness.
- 30:49Speaker 5: It's a revolving door. It's completely disorderly. I don't know
- 30:52Speaker 5: who's coming and who's going. Is that a fair assessment?
- 30:56Speaker 3: Yes?
- 30:57Speaker 5: Yeah?
- 30:59Speaker 4: Uh.
- 30:59Speaker 2: One last reminder, keyword for this hour, chance to get
- 31:02Speaker 2: in the building for the Avs and Predators on Friday night.
- 31:04Speaker 2: The keyword is cheetah. So text that in your first
- 31:08Speaker 2: last name to three zero three five four nine two five, Yes, Victor,

- 31:19Speaker 5: not getting an education. Why am I laughing?
- 31:27Speaker 3: Why? It's never been about that. It's never been about that.
- 31:29Speaker 5: If you think the top notch elite guys that are
- 31:33Speaker 5: making hey here, the whole student athlete concept and stuff,
- 31:40Speaker 5: they're there for the exact same reason anybody.

- 31:48Speaker 5: to get an.
- 31:49Speaker 3: Education to better yourself.
- 31:52Speaker 5: You think they're going to spend more time working on
- 31:53Speaker 5: football or going to mythology class. I'm talking about the
- 31:57Speaker 5: top notch elites. That's why you got a guy go
- 32:00Speaker 5: to four different schools in four years. This isn't about
- 32:03Speaker 5: getting an education for a lot of these dudes. It's not.
- 32:06Speaker 5: You might think it is, and they may sell that dream,
- 32:09Speaker 5: it's not.

- 32:40Speaker 2: Keys to the game, came across something interesting during the break.
- 32:44Speaker 2: By the way, here's.
- 32:48Speaker 5: Also I have a legitimate argument why injuries are more
- 32:52Speaker 5: prevalent today than they were twenty thirty years ago.
- 32:55Speaker 2: Okay, hang on that for justice.
- 32:57Speaker 3: Well, can't wait.
- 33:01Speaker 5: Geez, your face gets redder and redder by the segment,
- 33:04Speaker 5: and I'm color blind, by the way.
- 33:06Speaker 4: I actually feel better than I did at seven oh one,
- 33:09Speaker 4: but I just don't feel good.
- 33:11Speaker 2: Cool, Carl, I asked, I'm gonna ask Vic this question
- 33:13Speaker 2: because moj is gonna be useless. Have you seen that
- 33:16Speaker 2: one Battle after another movie?
- 33:17Speaker 5: I haven't yet. We saw the trailer and the trailer
- 33:21Speaker 5: lost me, and if the trailer loses me, I'm usually
- 33:24Speaker 5: not gonna watch that movie.
- 33:25Speaker 2: This is another It was so I watched it. It's
- 33:27Speaker 2: on Max now. Yeah, I watched it over the weekend.
- 33:29Speaker 2: It's an e most just sit this out. It's another movie.
- 33:34Speaker 2: It was like when I saw Sinners, It's like good.
- 33:36Speaker 5: Movie, but it wasn't.
- 33:37Speaker 2: I didn't feel like it was as good as everybody said.
- 33:39Speaker 3: It was sort of. I really like Sinners. I think
- 33:42Speaker 3: Michael B. Jordan was great.
- 33:45Speaker 2: I thought the movie was fine. If you haven't seen
- 33:47Speaker 2: the movie by now, spoiler, I haven't seen it by now.
- 33:50Speaker 2: It's been a long time. The second they went to vampires,
- 33:54Speaker 2: I was like, could you do anything lazier? That's what
- 33:57Speaker 2: ruined it for me, actually, because I thought it was
- 33:59Speaker 2: a clamor up until then.
- 34:01Speaker 4: I think Michael B. Jordan was awesome. And then number two,
- 34:04Speaker 4: the cinematography.
- 34:05Speaker 2: For me, oh gorgeous, and the soundtrack was unreal.
- 34:09Speaker 4: Listen, they could have had a polar bear breakdancing for
- 34:12Speaker 4: two hours and I would have thought it's awesome because
- 34:15Speaker 4: the cinematography was just beautiful.
- 34:17Speaker 2: Anyway, here's the final eight quarterbacks left in the playoffs
- 34:22Speaker 2: by contract she what sticks out to you Josh Allen,
- 34:25Speaker 2: who's making fifty five million dollars a year, Rock Perty,
- 34:29Speaker 2: who was making fifty three million dollars a year, Stafford's
- 34:34Speaker 2: at forty two, Sam Donald's at thirty three and a half,
- 34:40Speaker 2: and then you have CAYLEB Williams at nine point eight,
- 34:43Speaker 2: Drake May at nine point one, CJ. Stroud at nine,
- 34:45Speaker 2: and bow Knicks at four point six, by far the
- 34:50Speaker 2: least of anybody left in the group.
- 34:52Speaker 8: That's going to change soon. I mean not soon some way,
- 34:57Speaker 8: but not soon soon, not immediate, soon soon soon, not
- 35:02Speaker 8: soon soon soon, but soon.
- 35:04Speaker 5: Let's say that. Let me ask you guys this, I'll
- 35:06Speaker 5: put this scenario on you. Let's let's say bon Nicks
- 35:09Speaker 5: achieves greatness here in this playoff run. Doesn't it be
- 35:12Speaker 5: who of the Broncos to get that deal done as
- 35:15Speaker 5: fast as possible, even one or two years before it
- 35:18Speaker 5: needs to be done.
- 35:19Speaker 3: It's a great question. Vig Brett.
- 35:21Speaker 4: Put yourself in Bonnix's shoes. Okay, you're on your rookie contract.
- 35:26Speaker 4: Let's say you lead the Broncos to a Super Bowl championship. Yeah,
- 35:30Speaker 4: you think it's fair to play for four point five
- 35:32Speaker 4: next year? You're gonna who are you or are you
- 35:39Speaker 4: gonna say, look, you can sign your extension. I don't
- 35:41Speaker 4: think he kicks in immediately like you get the signing bonus.
- 35:44Speaker 2: But okay, didn't Russell Wilson do that in Seattle in
- 35:47Speaker 2: his second year that he won as much?
- 35:49Speaker 5: We know that this ownership group that they're a fair
- 35:52Speaker 5: with their players, they're going to be fair with him,
- 35:54Speaker 5: and they're not gonna you know, he's not gonna play
- 35:56Speaker 5: with a chip on his shoulder saying, man, he'll he'll
- 35:59Speaker 5: get his He's got to achieve that though. Look, if
- 36:02Speaker 5: the beauty of having that contract listen, the Broncos would
- 36:04Speaker 5: not have been able to navigate the dead cap albatross
- 36:09Speaker 5: that was left them with Russell Wilson if not for
- 36:11Speaker 5: a rookie quarterback salary. Do you do you want to
- 36:15Speaker 5: have a.
- 36:15Speaker 2: Really uncomfortable conversation. Let's say that he does end up
- 36:20Speaker 2: winning the Super Bowl this year, which would be amazing.
- 36:24Speaker 2: Do you think part of the reason why the Broncos
- 36:26Speaker 2: got to the super Bowl is because he makes four
- 36:28Speaker 2: point six million dollars as opposed to fifty and they
- 36:30Speaker 2: can afford all these guys on defense? Would they give
- 36:34Speaker 2: you a lot of pause in giving him fifty some
- 36:36Speaker 2: million dollars close to sixty million dollars knowing you couldn't
- 36:39Speaker 2: afford to keep all those other guys on the roster.
- 36:42Speaker 5: No, but if I'm your representation, if I'm your representation,
- 36:45Speaker 5: I'm saying, well, you know that money, that dead money
- 36:47Speaker 5: that you had, we want that.
- 36:49Speaker 3: Now. These are the hypotheticals, right, I love.
- 36:52Speaker 2: Him, I mean you're talking about it. And keep in mind,
- 36:55Speaker 2: this is with with still what thirty million in Russell
- 36:59Speaker 2: dead on the books right now, thirty five something like that.
- 37:05Speaker 2: Going from four point six million to sixty million is
- 37:08Speaker 2: going to now a couple of guys become unaffordable. And
- 37:12Speaker 2: I think we can all agree the reason why the
- 37:14Speaker 2: Broncos are fourteen and three in the position they are
- 37:16Speaker 2: is not necessarily because bo Nicks led them there. He
- 37:20Speaker 2: was part of what was a stellar defense and had
- 37:24Speaker 2: agreed good final stretches of games.
- 37:28Speaker 3: Agreed.
- 37:29Speaker 4: But you look at any quarterback that leads their team
- 37:33Speaker 4: to postseason victories.
- 37:34Speaker 3: Man, they're going to pay him, period. I'm gonna pay
- 37:38Speaker 3: those guys.
- 37:38Speaker 5: It's when. And sometimes you do a contract early, folks.
- 37:44Speaker 5: I'm not suggesting that you do it early just just
- 37:46Speaker 5: to reward them. You do it early to save yourself
- 37:49Speaker 5: money on the backside. Sure, how many of these contracts
- 37:52Speaker 5: are done early, and guys like man I could have
- 37:53Speaker 5: made a lot more hell Nick Benito earlier this season
- 37:56Speaker 5: had he waited just a couple more months, right, Hatch
- 38:00Speaker 5: ten exactly, So you do them early strategically as much
- 38:06Speaker 5: as financially.
- 38:09Speaker 2: Game Tonight Nuggets and Pelicans, which can be heard right
- 38:12Speaker 2: here Altitude Sports Radio six o'clock Victor whatever.
- 38:17Speaker 1: It's the Johnson Auto Plaza, Cheese to the game, Johnsonado Plaza.
- 38:21Speaker 1: Experience the power of the Plaza when they have the
- 38:23Speaker 1: keys to performance in style with Ram, Jeep, Chevy, Puick
- 38:26Speaker 1: and GMC and a huge selection of Houston.
- 38:28Speaker 5: All in one place, Johnson Auto Clubs.
- 38:30Speaker 1: Here's Mo, Sher, Lombardi and KS.
- 38:33Speaker 2: Keys to the game, six o'clock Tonight, Nuggets and Pelicans
- 38:35Speaker 2: right here out to Dude Sports Radio ninety two five
- 38:37Speaker 2: pre game at five thirty, vic.
- 38:39Speaker 5: You know what I love about what the Nuggets are
- 38:41Speaker 5: doing now that they're shorthanded and again tonight in New Orleans.
- 38:44Speaker 5: You're not gonna have Joker, You're not gonna have Yonas,
- 38:46Speaker 5: You're not gonna have Cam Johnson. You're not gonna have
- 38:47Speaker 5: Christian Brown, who will not be available tonight. Not sure
- 38:51Speaker 5: about Jamal Murray. Jamal made the trip. He's been under
- 38:54Speaker 5: the weather, he's been ill. If he's not anywhere near
- 38:57Speaker 5: one hundred percent, I don't see him playing either. And
- 38:59Speaker 5: if that's the case, I love the way they set
- 39:02Speaker 5: up themselves the last couple of games, especially clearly that
- 39:04Speaker 5: Milwaukee game. Your starting lineup doesn't matter, it's your finishing lineup.
- 39:08Speaker 5: Tim Hardaway came off the bench and finished that game.
- 39:11Speaker 5: If Tim Hardaway continues to produce that kind of offense
- 39:14Speaker 5: off the bench, did you see that game against Milwaukee?
- 39:17Speaker 5: The second unit dominated. As soon as Janis and their
- 39:21Speaker 5: starters went off, the Nuggets second unit caught up. I
- 39:24Speaker 5: love that mentality. I love that strategy. It's a newfound
- 39:27Speaker 5: strategy for this team. So keep doing what you're doing there.
- 39:30Speaker 5: New Orleans has only won nine games. I think they've
- 39:33Speaker 5: lost nine of their last ten. It's not a good team,
- 39:37Speaker 5: but it could be a dangerous team when you're shorthanded.
- 39:39Speaker 5: So bank on your second unit, lean on guys like Hardaway,
- 39:44Speaker 5: Brown and company, and hopefully they can take you in tonight.
- 39:47Speaker 5: Because the Nuggets every game is going to be a
- 39:49Speaker 5: tough game from here on.
- 39:50Speaker 2: That jeez of the game powered by Johnson Autoplase, he
- 39:53Speaker 2: gets election service and incredible savings and Ramdup, Chevy Buick
- 39:56Speaker 2: and GMC all at one location experience the Plaza the
- 39:59Speaker 2: power of the plaus said Johnson Autoplasa.
- 40:02Speaker 3: I have one simple question, thanks for the music of
- 40:03Speaker 3: Nelly Vic. What are you doing there? What are you?
- 40:07Speaker 3: What are you doing there? What are you doing with
- 40:10Speaker 3: the team in New Orleans and Dallas? What are you?

- 40:13Speaker 5: I am the sideline reporter for the next two nights.
- 40:16Speaker 5: Tonight in New Orleans, tomorrow night in Dallas.
- 40:19Speaker 4: You know what?
- 40:21Speaker 5: But this is what.
- 40:21Speaker 3: This is what bothers me, Brett. You can agree or disagree.
- 40:24Speaker 3: I don't know.
- 40:25Speaker 4: I don't know what your face feels like today. There's
- 40:28Speaker 4: not a person on this planet where a trip to
- 40:31Speaker 4: New Orleans is wasted more on them than.
- 40:33Speaker 5: You one hundred percent. Last night, a bunch of the
- 40:36Speaker 5: guys among the crew, they walked down to to Bourbon Street,
- 40:41Speaker 5: French Quarter, and I'm mede dude. I stayed in my

- 41:13Speaker 2: who goes on the road trips with the Nuggets?
- 41:16Speaker 5: Nobody does? Nobody does. We really just stay in our rooms.

- 41:34Speaker 5: I'm not doing that again.
- 41:35Speaker 3: I'd be more than happy to oblige you.
- 41:37Speaker 5: If you like me to. That happened, That happened a
- 41:39Speaker 5: year like ten years ago. I ain't doing that again.
- 41:42Speaker 5: I've seen it.

- 43:09Speaker 2: real quick, before we get to a break. I want
- 43:11Speaker 2: to give you, guys, two ridiculous stories, and I want
- 43:13Speaker 2: you to tell me which one of these is more ridiculous. Okay,
- 43:17Speaker 2: both of these are insane. So I don't know a
- 43:23Speaker 2: lot about international soccer, and I know the main guys
- 43:27Speaker 2: in it, but that's kind of the extent of my knowledge.
- 43:31Speaker 2: There's a guy by the name of Hulk. He's a
- 43:38Speaker 2: Brazilian soccer player.
- 43:40Speaker 3: Yeah, I've heard of that, dude.
- 43:47Speaker 2: He was married with children. He divorced his wife and
- 43:55Speaker 2: married a new woman.
- 43:57Speaker 5: That woman was his.
- 44:01Speaker 2: From his first marriage.
- 44:03Speaker 3: Yeah, I heard about that.
- 44:06Speaker 2: Divorced his wife and married his niece.
- 44:13Speaker 4: No, so his wife is ex wife's niece he married, correct, Yeah,
- 44:19Speaker 4: I heard about that.
- 44:21Speaker 2: Is that one more bizarre than Chris Moltasanti of Soprano's
- 44:28Speaker 2: fame had a new movie come out called Cleaver that
- 44:33Speaker 2: I guess was debuted at a couple of nins the
- 44:36Speaker 2: Golden Globe Ceremony, in which he was a producer for it,
- 44:41Speaker 2: and he received a fifty four minute standing ovation.
- 44:46Speaker 3: That's impossible. It's gotta be fake.
- 44:52Speaker 2: Which one of those is no way, there's no way those.
- 44:54Speaker 5: Hollywood, It's not possible. Not possible.
- 44:59Speaker 2: That's the story.
- 45:00Speaker 3: I know.
- 45:01Speaker 5: It's not I know.
- 45:02Speaker 2: I know that for the Smashing Machine or is that
- 45:05Speaker 2: what is called the Rock Movie that he had like
- 45:09Speaker 2: a thirty five minute standing ovation after they debuted the movie.
- 45:12Speaker 5: No, I think you.
- 45:14Speaker 3: I think that you've probably been had.
- 45:17Speaker 5: You got down.
- 45:18Speaker 3: I'm telling you that there's down. Is not a chance,
- 45:21Speaker 3: there's not there's not a chance. No, there's there.
- 45:23Speaker 4: I don't believe it for a second. I'd rather believe
- 45:27Speaker 4: that Vic went out and actually played his harmonica in
- 45:30Speaker 4: a jazz band last night in New Orleans a thousand
- 45:33Speaker 4: times more than i'd believe that this this guy got it.
- 45:37Speaker 4: There's those people are so full, there's they couldn't. They
- 45:39Speaker 4: couldn't give a fifty four second standing ovation. Not a
- 45:43Speaker 4: chance in heck, no, huh, No.
- 45:46Speaker 3: Choose between one and the two.
- 45:48Speaker 2: That's all I'm telling you.
- 45:49Speaker 3: The whole one is true.
- 45:53Speaker 2: It is true.
- 45:54Speaker 3: Yeah, that is true. I don't believe the second one.
- 45:56Speaker 3: I think you're I think you're full of it.
- 45:58Speaker 5: Hey, what's in it? What's I've jumble lire? What's in it?
- 46:02Speaker 2: A whole bunch of good stuff?
- 46:03Speaker 3: Stuff?

- 46:28Speaker 5: You play some dunk coop.
- 46:33Speaker 2: And then dunk hoop. Sounds like a dangerous combination to
- 46:36Speaker 2: do it in that order.
- 46:39Speaker 3: Just let you know you have a game today.
- 46:41Speaker 2: Uh one more, one more, uh keyword coming away in
