• 1:53
  Speaker 2: we'll get back to the baseball. I know some of
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: you guys are hanging on. You want to yap about that.
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: The All Star Game went to a swing off while
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: Show healed and Aaron Judge made a mad dash.
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: They were like speedy.
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: Gonzales trying to get out of there and get the airports,
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: get the hell out of Atlanta. Very reminiscent of All
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: Star Games gone by. The game came down to it.
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: It was a tie because the Nationalague All Stars suck
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: and blew a six run lead, so the al came.
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: Back tied it. Kyle Swarber ended up winning it.
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: He was your All Star MVP as he won the
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: first ever not home run derby swing off, not home
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: run derby swing off. More on that later, but our
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: lead this hour is from the chatterbox. We have a
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: update update. The King malcontent, a pro bouncy ball making
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: headlines yet again, Lebron James.
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: That's right, Lebron James.
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: So feeding the content machine over the Baseball All Star
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: Break and of course making it all about Lebron, all
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: about Lebron, just the way he likes it, just the
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: way he likes it. So the gambling market has checked
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: in on this, They have entered the ring, and they
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: have updated, updated the odds on this. A new betting
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: favorite has emerged for Lebron James.
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: And if you didn't see this, and perhaps you're not.
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: A degenerate gambler and you don't keep track of these things,
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: So the gambling market says, the new favorite to land
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: Lebron James is, you know, no, the Dallas Mavericks Holy
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: Cowboy Boots Batman. Yeah, the Mavericks and the new betting
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: favorites to land Lebron James. Of course, everything is bigger
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: in Texas. Dallas listed at plus one twenty five. The
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: Miami Heat are number.
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: Two behind.
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: Behind the Mavericks, followed by the Cadavers from Cleveland and
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: the Goldens the Warriors who are also listed, then the Knicks.
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: So Dallas, which I think if I'm not mistaken, gave
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: away the keys to the franchise. They dumped Luca Hookah
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: Luca for some stale popcorn, and they are now the
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: betting favorite for Lebron. It's a small world, after all.
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: It's a small small world. So let us discuss the question.
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: For the esteem panel.
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: Where do you stand on the mav Rex as the
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: betting favorite for Lebron James that Dallas is the betting
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: favorite for Lebron?
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: Where do you stand on that?
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: So I've got Quentin Tarantino, Happy Place and packaged deal
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: in this hour of Lebron, We'll put all these things
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: together and make a giant sized ego which cannot match.
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: As big as we make it cannot match the ego
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: of Lebron James. So, first of all, you talk about
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: bizarro world, and I don't think I'm just bringing King
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: of hyperbole here. Lebron under this scenario, and I do
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: believe in the multiverse, But in this portion of the multiverse,
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: Lebron would rejoin Anthony Davis again, reunited and it feels
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: so good, and they'd play together in Big d this
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: time side by side, while Hooka Luca plays Hollywood Hero
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: and Lebron and Anthony Davis would go from Taco Tuesday
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: to tex Mex Monday. So no more Taco Toos, but
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: tex Mex Monday they would go for now. Unfortunately, the
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: Mexican food is better in La than it is in Texas,
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: so that's a downgrade for Lebron. But it's like watching
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: if you Will Quentin Tarantino and the remake of the Decision.
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: Where is Jim Gray?
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: Is there a boys and girls club in Connecticut where
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: Lebron can pop in and decide where he's going to
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: take his talents? But imagine if Kyrie gets looped in.
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: Kyrie is always hurt, but he's also on the Mavericks
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: and if he.
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: Lands in this.
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: If you put Kyrie out there with Lebron and Anthony Davis,
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: this is like one big ayahuasca trip and you're going
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: to never Never Land.
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: Is what you're doing there. It's the headline.
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: Imagine that Lebron, Kyrie and Anthony Davis side by side,
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: the three headed fire breathing dragon. It's like the NBA's
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: version of the modern rat pack of the NBA and
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: the Mavericks. Now, I'm old enough to remember when they
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: could not convince top level players to go to Dallas.
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: They couldn't get him. They offered him a stake, dinner
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: and a Cuban cigar. It didn't matter. And I'm not
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: talking about a Mark Cuban cigar. I'm talking about a
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: literal Cuban cigar. It wouldn't matter. And so now they're
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: the darlings of the Betty market to get Lebron James,
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: the Elder Statesman and pro bouncy ball. Now, I would
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: say forget the Heat because Lebron still got his panties
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: in a bunch over pat Riley and didn't really like
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: Eric Spolstra. Last I checked, they're still with the Heat,
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: so I would dismiss them. I don't see the Warriors.
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: I'm not gonna dismiss Golden State, but I don't see that.
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: I'd forget about the Knickerbockers. Lebron's had multiple opportunities to
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: go to Gotham, and he wants nothing to do with
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: New York City, nothing to do with that, running from
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: the grind of the Big Apple. So forget that possibility.
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: And so you're you're looking around and what else is
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: going on?
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: Now?
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: I'm just not feeling the Mavericks. I'm not and it's
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: I've got the microphone, I've got the headphones, the tools
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: of ignorance here. So I'm just not feeling it. I
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: like the storylines, it's just not there now.
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: I have my.
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: Spidy senses tingling and not in a away with his story,
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: not in a good way with the story like Lebron
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: with the Mavericks. It just doesn't connect. The jigsaw puzzle
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: piece to me doesn't fit.
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: Now.
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: Secondly, what makes the most sense as we psychoanalyze Lebron James.
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: So let me point that the I want to get
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: this right out of the way. We have long said
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: the gambling market is a pretty good indicator. Generally speaking,
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: it is a solid indicator of what's going to happen.
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: The reason is they have some skin in the game,
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: they have financial liability.
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: At the same time, there are.
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: Times where the gambling market will change some things up
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: because they know they can get some dumb money and
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: they love dumb money, and people react. And just by
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: me talking about this or seeing somewhere on the interweb
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: that the Mavericks are the betting favorite for Lebron, some
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: of that dumb money I better bet on the Mavericks.
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: They're the favorite and all that stuff. So well, it
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: is a touchstone that we use. It's not the only
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: thing that we use then, and you have to use
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: your own intelligence when you look at these kind of things.
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: And so regardless, I just have it sideways on this one.
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: I do. Now. Lebron he's got a no trade clause.
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: He's one of two people in the NBA that have
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: a no trade class, Bradley Beal and Lebron who doesn't
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: belong anyway. So that means that he's got the Lakers
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: by the balls, okay, And if he wants out, it's
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: his call. He'll hand pick the team, and then the
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: Lakers will have to be the Dallas Mavericks in that trade.
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: They're the ones that are gonna get bent over and
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: if you know what I mean, they're gonna have to
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: get nothing, nothing in return. And so if Lebron wants out,
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: it's going to be his call. He's gonna say bye
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: bye and then step right into the portal. Now for me,
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: and if I'm putting my money down, I am betting
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: on Cleveland, the mistake by the Lake. That's where I'm betting.
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: By my The Calves are the team that makes the
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: most sense. If Lebron leaves the Lakers, it makes the
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: most sense. Right.
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: Good.
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: I'm not gonna go great roster. Some people say great roster.
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: I don't think it's a great roster. I'm gonna say good.
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: Lebron's heart from Akron, which is not Cleveland, but close enough,
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: the closest NBA team, Lebron's heart is still there.
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: Now, what is my evidence? Let me make my evidence here.
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: So Lebron, he's still interacting, he said. We talked about
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: this in a previous episode of the show. Lebron just
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: sent out a congratulatory message on social media to some
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: Cavalier executives. It's like he's ready. He's like, Hey, congratulations.
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: By the way, can I get the locker next to
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: Evan Mobley? By the way, can I get that? Yeah,
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: he didn't send that on X, but he thought about it.
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: He's in recent weeks been spotted working out at the
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: Cavaliers facility.
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: Hello. Yes, he has worn back in Ohio a.
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: Welcome hole, welcome home hat, and so he's done that.
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: He's essentially leaving Neon breadcrumbs like that old old game,
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: the old the movie Tron from back in the day. Right,
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: if you're into nostalgia, he's leaving Neon breadcrumbs around. And
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: so the cavaliers are quietly looking there at plus five
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: point fifty on the updated gambling market. And if you
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: think Lebron does not know, does not know exactly what
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: he's doing here, and he's just going to drag this
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: thing out as long as he can, then eventually he'll
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: hit the button and he's got the code. He's got
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: the nuclear code. You just have him been paying attention.
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: And so again, while the Mavericks waldb Mavericks. Maybe the
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: bookies picked. They may be the books pick. I would
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: not bet the mortgage on any of these teams. I
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: certain wouldn't better on Dallas. Lebron's bunker is in Cleveland.
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: It's in Ohio. Not Cleveland is an acrid, but.
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: That is his happy place.
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: That is his happy place, and that's where the wine flows.
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: And he goes down memory Lane like, oh man, memories
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: are alive.
• 12:18
  Speaker 3: Man.
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: I love that town. And it's got statues everywhere. Probably
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: it's a statue there.
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: Why not?
• 12:24
  Speaker 4: All right?
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: Now? Final thought?
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: So, how would the Lakers end up spinning a Lebron
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: James trade? Like, how do you end up spinning this.
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: What's the move if you end up trading Lebron? So
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: you bring in here, what you do is you bring
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: in Star Jones. You know Star Jones, right, she's I
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: think she's still on Divorce Court. Last night watched that
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: show a while back. She was on there, So I'm
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: gonna say that that she's still on there. And you know,
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: thirty minute episode of Divorce Court and the Lakers come
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: out and say, oh, he had a great relationship. It
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: was really good, it was wonderful. We didn't win a championshi,
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: we just got that Mickey Mouse ring, but we're happy
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: with that. We pretend that's a real championship from that
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: bogus bubble the resort in Orlando. So you celebrate that,
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: celebrate the good times, and you thank Lebron and you
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: just say, listen, you tell Star Jones in that Divorce Court,
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: like many relationships, he reconcilable differences. That's it. Put that
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: check that box. And the differences, of course, are that
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: Luca is now the bell of the ball and there's
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: no joy on skid row where the Lakers play, right,
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: So it does get old dicey, it does get a
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: little bit dicey because the Lakers have a lot of deadweight.
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: It's the family business, and that's no one's talking about this.
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: We're the only ones bringing this up. No one else
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: is bringing this up. If you get rid of Lebron James,
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: it has to be a package deal.
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: It's got to be a package. What do I mean
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: by that?
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: Any Lebron James trade, you have to include Bronnie James.
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: Bronnie James and Lebron must be traded together. It's like
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: a complimentary item when you go to Jack in the
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: Box and you want to upgrade to a combo meal. Right,
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: So it's a combo meal. It's like going to Mickey
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: D's or a Harte's or Chick fil It. You want
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: a combo meal. If you're the Lakers, you have to
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: include Bronnie Jims. Now, why do you have to include
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: Bronnie James. It would be malfeasance if you don't include it.
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: Because Bronnie James he has to exit stage right now.
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: He might be able to exit stage. Look, but he's
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: got to be gone. If Lebron's gone, Bronnie is only there.
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: He's a marketing mascot. He's a great tribute to Lebron
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: and the powers of persuasion by Lebron James, he gets
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: to play dress up. It's like make a wish, you
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: get to be on the Lakers. You're an emotional support
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: player for Lebron James, your daddy, congratulations. Right without Lebron,
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: Without Lebron, Bronnie James is not even sniffing a summer
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: league opportunity.
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: The guy can't play.
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: It's fascinating that there are dumb people that think he
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: can play. Right, he'd be sitting courtside maybe if Lebron
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: bought tickets, if Lebron didn't pull strings to get him
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: on the Lakers. And so the statuet reads okay, the
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: stat sheet reads with brownie. It reads like a witness
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: protection profile, like barely they're hoping not to be noticed.
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: When you look at the stats of Bronnie James, there
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: the spawn of le Bron, the spawn Lebron. Now, maybe
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: one day, Bronnie, I'm not gonna be completely negative.
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: I'll be Benny Bright's side.
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: There is a possibility in the multiverse that one day
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: Bronnie James becomes a serviceable rotation guard. Of course that'll
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: be in Serbia. Or in Russia or China, but it
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: ain't gonna be in the NBA right right now, he
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: is a member of the International International Union of Bricklayers.
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: It is always a brick house with Bronnie James there,
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: So cut the court. If you're gonna get rid of Lebron,
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: you gotta get rid of Bronnie James and they can
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: ride off into the sunset together because when Lebron's out
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: of the NBA, Broni's.
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: Gonna be out of the NBA.
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: Now, maybe they can do a podcast together, right to
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: a podcast? Who's Lebron doing a podcast with? Somebody said,
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: I've not listened to Lebron's podcast. Somebody said he's doing
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: one with Steve Nash. Does that mean Steve nashill replace
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: Jason Kidd as the coach of the Mavericks, Because that's.
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: How you do it, right, Lebron.
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: Whoever's doing the podcast with Lebron, they get to coach Lebron, right,
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: I mean, that's how JJ Reddick got the job. He
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: didn't know he's doing and he's pretending to be a
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: Laker coach. Wild it is the Bain Maler Show. We'll
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: circle back to the All Star game as well your thoughts.
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: The big story everyone's yapping about here, Kyle Schwarber wins
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: the MVP. There are people upset with Schwarbur winning the NVP,
• 17:00

  Speaker 7: I'm not have a good old time?
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: Wow, this is is that real? I've never heard never
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: heard this? Are you starving the dog?
• 22:43
  Speaker 3: Negative? Ben? That actually got the treats here?

• 22:48
  Speaker 4: Here, you know, lined up, Willis.
• 22:49
  Speaker 7: He's athletic, you know, so he'll you know, he's got
• 22:52
  Speaker 7: the bucks, you know, so he'll jump up and down
• 22:54
  Speaker 7: and also anytime there's any food anywhere near that means
• 22:57
  Speaker 7: if I'm eating, that means Willis's eating. So he takes
• 22:59
  Speaker 7: a fence. Actually, you know when I break out the this,
• 23:02
  Speaker 7: the spicy nuggets or you know, the chicken out Fredo,
• 23:04
  Speaker 7: he doesn't get a bite. You know, rubs, he's right there,
• 23:07
  Speaker 7: rubs in the wrong way. But he's all, it's all good.
• 23:09
  Speaker 7: And well, you know we got to spread it out
• 23:12
  Speaker 7: to be eight about an hour or so ago. Well
• 23:14
  Speaker 7: we'll go for a walk, you know, maybe in another
• 23:16
  Speaker 7: half an hour so that the weather is Good's beautiful
• 23:19
  Speaker 7: thing right now in the case, you know, it's like
• 23:20
  Speaker 7: eighty degree or seventy five whatever, superhuman. So if it's
• 23:24
  Speaker 7: nice out there, we'll get it. We'll get it moving
• 23:25
  Speaker 7: and grooving. But Ben, he looks in Las Vegas is
• 23:28
  Speaker 7: already kind of put their two cents in this Lebron situation.
• 23:32
  Speaker 7: So I liked what you were saying in terms of
• 23:34
  Speaker 7: Dallas being a favorite in Miami second and Cleveland kind
• 23:37
  Speaker 7: of in the mix. Now, we do know this is
• 23:39
  Speaker 7: all for show and Lebron's not going anywhere, right, Okay,
• 23:42
  Speaker 7: we know this.
• 23:42
  Speaker 2: Is I don't know that the you who knows Lebron
• 23:48
  Speaker 2: wake up tomorrow and say I want out.
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: He's been, He's probably decided where he wants to go.
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: It's nice.
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: It's not zero chance that he wants to leave. It
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: seems odd you would want to leave when you get
• 23:59
  Speaker 2: to play with Luca. Everyone says how great Luca is,
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: and why would you want to leave that? If you're
• 24:03
  Speaker 2: a Lebron, you're an old player, why would you want
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: to go.
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: Away from that?
• 24:07
  Speaker 7: Yeah, but he's having he's having a mid life Ben.
• 24:09
  Speaker 7: I'm not gonna call it a it's a midlife event, okay,
• 24:12
  Speaker 7: because the fact of the matter is, for all the greatness,
• 24:14
  Speaker 7: all the NBA you know, all NBA stuff, and he
• 24:16
  Speaker 7: still has gas in the tank. But for the rest
• 24:18
  Speaker 7: of his career, including this year, he's Robin. His Batman
• 24:22
  Speaker 7: days are over bent. And that is the real crux
• 24:24
  Speaker 7: of the matter. That's who he's having a difficult time understanding.
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: Now.
• 24:27
  Speaker 7: For me, listen, it's no shame in being Robin to
• 24:31
  Speaker 7: Luka Doncic, who is twenty six years old, right, a
• 24:34
  Speaker 7: decade plus younger than you and a generational play there's
• 24:37
  Speaker 7: no shame in that. And the fact of the matter
• 24:39
  Speaker 7: that this is the best opportunity, pairing with Luca adding
• 24:43
  Speaker 7: some pieces. I know the West is a gauntlet, but Lebron,
• 24:46
  Speaker 7: are you gonna Are you gonna run your media empire
• 24:48
  Speaker 7: from that distant outpost in Cleveland? Is that where you're
• 24:50
  Speaker 7: running a metera empire from. Let's go to Dallas, you know,
• 24:53
  Speaker 7: not even the largest city in the lone star state. Okay,
• 24:55
  Speaker 7: you got some stuff going on there, but are you
• 24:57
  Speaker 7: gonna run your media empire from there? Never mind the
• 24:59
  Speaker 7: fact just fort one hundred million dollar house in Brentwood. Okay,
• 25:02
  Speaker 7: So the bottom line for me, Lebron, you are the guy,
• 25:05
  Speaker 7: a billionaire, so on and fourth, but you're really the
• 25:08
  Speaker 7: real clucks. The matter is the Lakers and Jennie bust
• 25:11
  Speaker 7: you know, is serious and always robbed Linka. They just said,
• 25:14
  Speaker 7: we're running this thing through, We're looking towards the future.
• 25:17
  Speaker 7: It doesn't mean Lebron Bronny you want to bring in
• 25:19
  Speaker 7: Bryce next year. That's making money too, So everybody's making
• 25:23
  Speaker 7: money here. It's just that you don't call the shots,
• 25:26
  Speaker 7: or the perception that you call the shots is not there.
• 25:28
  Speaker 3: That's why I think he's upset so.
• 25:30
  Speaker 4: These other teams.
• 25:31
  Speaker 7: It's you know, it's going to leave the news cycle,
• 25:33
  Speaker 7: and it's very exciting. But don't forget that he's under
• 25:35
  Speaker 7: contract for another year.
• 25:36
  Speaker 2: So the way that doesn't he come on now? You know, Andre,
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: you've been around the block here. You know, though it
• 25:41
  Speaker 2: doesn't matter if Lebron wants to he wakes up, he says,
• 25:43
  Speaker 2: I want to play for the Charlotte Hornets because I
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: like Gricks. They'll find a way to get him on
• 25:48
  Speaker 2: the Charlotte Hornets. Those doesn't mean anything.
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: He can go anywhere he wants, but any team he
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: wants that that that's irrelevant, doesn't matter. He's got no
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: trade cause.
• 25:57
  Speaker 2: But if he says I don't want to play for
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: you anymore, they'll commodate him.
• 26:01
  Speaker 7: Sure, and Gritszard delicious bend. All I'm saying is that
• 26:04
  Speaker 7: other team is going to have to give pieces and acts.
• 26:06
  Speaker 7: It's not going to be a fire shale. It's not
• 26:07
  Speaker 7: going to be this Milwaukee situation where oh, we'll just
• 26:10
  Speaker 7: wave you pay you pay you to play somewhere else
• 26:12
  Speaker 7: and you can quietly walk off into the sunset. Canie
• 26:14
  Speaker 7: Bus rops Lincoln, though, we need something back, and I
• 26:17
  Speaker 7: think that's where the rubber is going to meet the road,
• 26:19
  Speaker 7: you know. Okay, Cleveland, go to Cleveland, Hey we need
• 26:21
  Speaker 7: Evan Mobley, you know.
• 26:22
  Speaker 4: Go to Dallas.
• 26:22
  Speaker 7: Youre obviously not.
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: They'll say, go Pound saying you're gonna get you.
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: Go to Cleveland.
• 26:28
  Speaker 2: We'll give you some water from Lake Erie, and we'll
• 26:31
  Speaker 2: give you some old potatoes that we found somewhere out
• 26:33
  Speaker 2: in the in the sticks.
• 26:35
  Speaker 7: They better be able to make the potato chips out
• 26:37
  Speaker 7: of those potatoes. But the Lakers are going to have
• 26:39
  Speaker 7: to get something back, and that would take these teams,
• 26:42
  Speaker 7: i e. Particularly Cleveland that's trying to build something towards
• 26:45
  Speaker 7: the championship. You're gonna have to reconfigure what's already working.
• 26:48
  Speaker 7: And that's where I think the deal is. Gonn is
• 26:50
  Speaker 7: going to hit the bricks Dalla the same thing. They're
• 26:52
  Speaker 7: building it around Cooper or Miami. They're not really competitive,
• 26:54
  Speaker 7: and I think they have their eyes on Ja Moran
• 26:56
  Speaker 7: and Jan Fancy Coople. So bottom line, I know you
• 26:58
  Speaker 7: got other callers me and Well, we're thrilled about the
• 27:01
  Speaker 7: Mallard palooza. But again, it's not a mid life crisis, Lebron.
• 27:04
  Speaker 7: It's have been life Levnce. Okay, but everybody plays the
• 27:07
  Speaker 7: fool sometimes. Okay, there's no shame Lebron in being rocking. Okay,
• 27:11
  Speaker 7: you can still make your money and have a great
• 27:13
  Speaker 7: time in Los Angeles.
• 27:14
  Speaker 4: But it's come to that.
• 27:16
  Speaker 7: And I know it's a shock to your system because
• 27:17
  Speaker 7: you're the chosen ones. Okay, but Robin had some good roles,
• 27:20
  Speaker 7: you know what I meaning? Once in Emmy, you can
• 27:22
  Speaker 7: shine in that role. Ben, thanks to much for taking
• 27:24
  Speaker 7: the time.
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: See there you go is Andre and his dog Willis,
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: who have they've entered?
• 27:28
  Speaker 2: Andre not in it, but Willis is in the Malor
• 27:31
  Speaker 2: Palooza this weekend, so very exciting. Let's go now to
• 27:36

  Speaker 3: the first Summer League.
• 28:14
  Speaker 4: I was right there in Las Vegas and he.
• 28:17

• 28:19
  Speaker 3: there going against Cooper Flaggny Airball that break City, Like

  Speaker 3: horrible horbo father. Like, I'm getting tired of this Lebron James.
• 28:31

• 28:57
  Speaker 3: trading cards and stuff like that. He did a podcast.
• 29:00

  Speaker 3: Well.
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: Left on the cutting room for if you watch the All.
• 33:49
  Speaker 2: Star game, you noticed that the announcer Joe Davis was
• 33:52
  Speaker 2: talking about Padre player Fernando with to Ts his career,
• 33:56
  Speaker 2: big start, big contract.
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: He mentioned that the tease missed the season and with
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: a suspension.
• 34:01
  Speaker 2: However, left on the cutting room floor left out of
• 34:05
  Speaker 2: the All Star broadcast was the part where Tatise was
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: suspended for let me check my notes.
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: Here performance and hitching drugs.
• 34:14
  Speaker 2: That's right, Fernando Tatis steroid chait. Yeah, I did not
• 34:18
  Speaker 2: mention ringworm medication. Did not mention that at all. That's
• 34:22
  Speaker 2: what now, that's supposedly he said. He did not know
• 34:25
  Speaker 2: that the ring worm medication had steroids in it. That's
• 34:29
  Speaker 2: what he claimed. Also, as far as the Cirque de
• 34:31
  Speaker 2: Sole with cleats, instead of having the All Stars as
• 34:36
  Speaker 2: they normally line up on the foul ones, if you
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: watched the pregame for the All Star Game, they were
• 34:42
  Speaker 2: introduced as they were introduced normally, they're just they line
• 34:44
  Speaker 2: up along the first and third base line. Instead, they
• 34:47
  Speaker 2: walked to a four level red podium that stretched across
• 34:53
  Speaker 2: the infield dirt. They had flashing lights, smoke, a DJ,
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: and chicks dancing is what they had at the All
• 35:02
  Speaker 2: Star Game. Yeah, and the podium looked like it was
• 35:06
  Speaker 2: something that they might maybe the NFL bought it on
• 35:08
  Speaker 2: offer up. I think it was like Rihanna used it
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: in an old Super Bowl halftime show or something like that.
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: Like her, I think it was like the same thing.
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: So so there was that it was nice that they
• 35:20
  Speaker 2: wore the actual team uniforms and if you noticed there
• 35:23
  Speaker 2: was no advertising patches on the jerseys because that costs more.
• 35:27
  Speaker 2: That costs more for the All Star Games, so they
• 35:29
  Speaker 2: didn't have those on there. There was no helmet ads.
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 35:34

  Speaker 2: Correct answer each Chiro Suzuki back with the Seattle Mariner.
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: To the third degree. This is one big event gets grilled,
• 38:06
  Speaker 1: all right, cool? What do we got?
• 38:08
  Speaker 9: It was reported on Monday that breakout forty nine Ers
• 38:10
  Speaker 9: receiver Juwan Jennings wants a new contract from the forty
• 38:13
  Speaker 9: nine ers or to be traded. Ben, what's the most
• 38:16
  Speaker 9: likely outcome here?
• 38:17
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so they can't pay everyone the Niners obviously, if
• 38:20
  Speaker 2: they've given out a lot of money, the salary cap
• 38:23
  Speaker 2: is uh fugezy. But they've already paid brockberdy Kittle, They've
• 38:27
  Speaker 2: paid Warner on defense, big money, got Brandon Ayuck recovering.
• 38:32
  Speaker 2: They have a second year receiver, Ricky Piersoll. So Jennings
• 38:38
  Speaker 2: is replaceable, so he's not gonna. He's not gonna. He's
• 38:42
  Speaker 2: a one year wonder. If he did it for more
• 38:44
  Speaker 2: than one year, he was good. Last year he stepped
• 38:47
  Speaker 2: up with guys getting hurt. He's not someone that you're
• 38:52
  Speaker 2: going to pay a lot of money too because he's
• 38:54
  Speaker 2: only done it for one year and you've got other players.
• 38:56
  Speaker 9: Next, a recent survey of NFL league executives, coaches, and
• 38:59
  Speaker 9: scouts ranked Baker Mayfield as the tenth best quarterback in
• 39:02
  Speaker 9: the NFL.
• 39:03
  Speaker 2: How do you feel about that ranking? It doesn't seem
• 39:06
  Speaker 2: legit to me. And and Baker played well in Tampa. It's
• 39:09
  Speaker 2: a scheme. He's a scheme guy. He's scheme dependent, and
• 39:12
  Speaker 2: he's he's been a roller coaster. Baker Mayfield with Cleveland,
• 39:15
  Speaker 2: good rookie year, a radic up and down injury, sucked
• 39:19
  Speaker 2: in Carolina, Okay with the Rams for like two games,
• 39:23
  Speaker 2: and then he's become okay in Tampa. I just don't
• 39:26
  Speaker 2: trust him, and he he still throws a lot of interceptions.
• 39:29
  Speaker 9: Next, Johnny Manziel said in a recent interview that if
• 39:32
  Speaker 9: nil had existed back when he was playing at Texas
• 39:34
  Speaker 9: A and M, he would have been taking a pay
• 39:36
  Speaker 9: cut to play in the NFL.
• 39:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Bennessee, right, Yeah, that's not hyperbole, it's not I mean,
• 39:43
  Speaker 2: they raised over four hundred million in booster money for
• 39:47
  Speaker 2: the stadium because of Johnny Manziel. He would have been
• 39:50
  Speaker 2: making twelve million dollars a year at Texas A and M,
• 39:53
  Speaker 2: which is more than he would have made as a
• 39:54
  Speaker 2: rookie in the end, but how did we know he pass?
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: I run, I'm a winner, foregone. I won for goode
