• 3:17

• 3:39
  Speaker 7: Now I know you and you and your wife and
• 3:41
  Speaker 7: not talking about it, but if indeed you you guys
• 3:43
  Speaker 7: have a next child that being a boy, what's the
• 3:47
  Speaker 7: possibility that Nigel or James ends up being one of
• 3:50
  Speaker 7: those two names?
• 3:50
  Speaker 5: Because this young man has to be a feeling like
• 3:52
  Speaker 5: savior for you guys.
• 3:53
  Speaker 8: So far, well he's been. He's been a revelation, there's
• 3:56
  Speaker 8: no doubt. And he's been the silver lining and in
• 3:57
  Speaker 8: the dark clouds of Marquette basketball this year. And he
• 4:00
  Speaker 8: just keeps getting better and better. Now, you know, the
• 4:03
  Speaker 8: Cynics and US will ask themselves how much will he
• 4:06
  Speaker 8: start to cost.
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: You know, in this new world and to keep him around?
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: But now he was definitely great. I don't know.
• 4:12
  Speaker 8: I you know, guys, I was at the arena last
• 4:14
  Speaker 8: night for the Admirals game, obviously, and the cold winds
• 4:18
  Speaker 8: downtown came this strange rumbling of a halftime score that
• 4:22
  Speaker 8: I could not believe when I opened my eyes and
• 4:24
  Speaker 8: looked at my score bug at and I said, something
• 4:26
  Speaker 8: must be wrong here or I've got is this the
• 4:28
  Speaker 8: market women?
• 4:29
  Speaker 7: Or what? Like?
• 4:30
  Speaker 8: What is this? Are the men playing tonight? Or like
• 4:32
  Speaker 8: what's going on? Like we yeah, what's happening here? Are
• 4:35
  Speaker 8: we really doing this tonight? But thankfully, when you go
• 4:38
  Speaker 8: up I, you know, thirty points ish in the first half,
• 4:41
  Speaker 8: you say to yourself, well, I don't think we're gonna
• 4:43
  Speaker 8: blow this lead.
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: And they and they didn't do it.
• 4:46
  Speaker 8: And Marquette for once was on the uh on the
• 4:49
  Speaker 8: other side of the dump trucking.
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: So that was really great to see.
• 4:51
  Speaker 8: It warmed my cockles in a year that we have
• 4:54
  Speaker 8: been struggling at maybe this is the start.
• 4:56
  Speaker 5: This is, you know, but the start of something new.
• 4:59
  Speaker 8: Who always talks about the eight to nine and to
• 5:01
  Speaker 8: twelve year old that's the crucible of being a fan,
• 5:03
  Speaker 8: right and that and that ten year old was inside
• 5:06
  Speaker 8: me last night after a win.
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: Light that's in Look at this team, Look at this team.
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: See maybe this is the start. Maybe things could turn
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: around now all the way ride.
• 5:14
  Speaker 6: This wave to the Big East title. Into the week sixteen.
• 5:18
  Speaker 6: Let's go, let's go all the way.
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: I don't know that's gonna happen, but it was great.
• 5:22
  Speaker 5: To say it's not gonna happen.
• 5:24
  Speaker 6: Well, all right, boys, we begin today with question and
• 5:26
  Speaker 6: this hot te compte will fire those up. We'renna take
• 5:28
  Speaker 6: them on the nicolay Lo dot com talking text line
• 5:30
  Speaker 6: eight seven seven seven nine four one ninety seven three.
• 5:33
  Speaker 5: But then a little subdivision, little sidebar, if you will.
• 5:37
  Speaker 5: I'm wondering.
• 5:38
  Speaker 6: Got me thinking about your favorite memes because there are
• 5:42
  Speaker 6: several memes that are devoted to people eating popcorn. There's
• 5:47
  Speaker 6: Phil Hayter, there's like the Michael Jacks Jacks.
• 5:50
  Speaker 7: Yeah, this should make one of Tom Cruise when he
• 5:53
  Speaker 7: was eating popcorn in front of that movie theater group
• 5:55
  Speaker 7: where he's throwing him into his mouth one hundred percent.
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: So even though it was an Obama popcorn me.
• 6:01
  Speaker 5: So, I'm like, there are several popcorn memes.
• 6:04
  Speaker 6: And the reason I'm thinking of that is because that's
• 6:06
  Speaker 6: me last night at around dinner time, had the TV
• 6:10
  Speaker 6: on and I'm eating the popcorn figurative leaf corn is
• 6:13
  Speaker 6: not really eating popcorn. Although I like popcorn, my wife
• 6:15
  Speaker 6: makes it a lot.
• 6:16
  Speaker 5: She does.
• 6:16
  Speaker 6: She makes really good popcorn on the stovetop, not in
• 6:19
  Speaker 6: the microwave.
• 6:20
  Speaker 5: That's battling.
• 6:22
  Speaker 6: Like she takes pride in her popcorn, not like our
• 6:25
  Speaker 6: fresh Douglas with his own.
• 6:27
  Speaker 5: We're not talking.
• 6:27
  Speaker 6: We don't have the popper in our house like the
• 6:29
  Speaker 6: actual dedicated.
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: As that have, you know, not lasting in this building.
• 6:35
  Speaker 8: The one thing that has is that popcorn machine is right,
• 6:38
  Speaker 8: and dog makes popcorn as good as anybody.
• 6:41
  Speaker 5: More microphones in.
• 6:42
  Speaker 6: But I was singing to the popcorn meme because I'm
• 6:44
  Speaker 6: watching the Four Letter Network and social media meltdown over
• 6:49
  Speaker 6: Belichick not being in the first ballot, and I'm like, oh,
• 6:53
  Speaker 6: so an election took place. People don't like the results,
• 6:57
  Speaker 6: and we get to talk about the self absorbed holier
• 6:59
  Speaker 6: than our who they think they know everything. Voters who
• 7:03
  Speaker 6: vote for the Pro Football Hall of Fame, as a
• 7:05
  Speaker 6: twenty year voter in the Baseball Writers Association, in the
• 7:08
  Speaker 6: National Baseball Hall of Fame, we are a bunch of
• 7:11
  Speaker 6: idiots because one guy didn't vote for each y row well,
• 7:14
  Speaker 6: they had ten guys that didn't vote, or at least ten,
• 7:16
  Speaker 6: I'm not really sure what the rame. At least they
• 7:17
  Speaker 6: could be Yea east Ten didn't vote for Belichick in
• 7:20
  Speaker 6: the hall, which is more egregious than a guy not
• 7:23
  Speaker 6: being unanimous.
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: Absolutely.
• 7:26
  Speaker 6: I'm just sitting there watching this, going, oh, let those
• 7:29
  Speaker 6: guys have their time, their asses in the jackpot, now.
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: The popcorn.
• 7:35
  Speaker 5: I'm like, oh, okay, so, and.
• 7:40
  Speaker 6: They had fifty voters between like, and there's four hundred
• 7:42
  Speaker 6: and fifty in baseball, and baseball you gotta have seventy
• 7:44
  Speaker 6: five percent to get in and this here, you have
• 7:46
  Speaker 6: to have forty to fifty in this round of voting.
• 7:49
  Speaker 7: In a different senior coaching committee where there is a
• 7:52
  Speaker 7: certain different legislation.
• 7:53
  Speaker 6: Different legislation to it and different it's a different it's
• 7:56
  Speaker 6: an offshoot.
• 7:57
  Speaker 5: But everybody's like, who are these idiots take away their
• 7:59
  Speaker 5: vote because I don't like the way they voted.
• 8:02
  Speaker 6: That's I can say that about a lot of elections
• 8:04
  Speaker 6: that have happened in the past.
• 8:06
  Speaker 7: Well, and I think there's a there's something to just
• 8:09
  Speaker 7: being able to explain it. And this is my favorite
• 8:11
  Speaker 7: part of guys like you in the baseball world that
• 8:13
  Speaker 7: just put the ballot out and and I do this
• 8:16
  Speaker 7: is why I voted, and this is how I voted,
• 8:18
  Speaker 7: and I'm excited to see if this is Ice Bowl
• 8:20
  Speaker 7: territory with the who voted for Belichick, because all of
• 8:24
  Speaker 7: a sudden, we're gonna find fifty voters that voted for Belichick.
• 8:26
  Speaker 5: Yes, I voted for well, yeah, of course I've had Bill.
• 8:30
  Speaker 5: The first guy they looked at was.
• 8:32
  Speaker 3: Bill Polly, That was the one I couldn't belie telling.
• 8:34
  Speaker 6: People, well, maybe we should park him for a while
• 8:36
  Speaker 6: because of the flake Gate and spygate. And then it's
• 8:38
  Speaker 6: like he said that to people and then asked yesterday,
• 8:41
  Speaker 6: He's like, ah, absolutely voted.
• 8:42
  Speaker 5: I was at the Ice Bowl. I was freezing my
• 8:44
  Speaker 5: ass off, and I thought.
• 8:45
  Speaker 8: I saw a quote that he said he couldn't remember
• 8:47
  Speaker 8: for sure, but he's ninety goeta, Bill, But I don't
• 8:54
  Speaker 8: believe you at all that you remember.
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: I don't all believe you.
• 8:57
  Speaker 6: It is a bit of a traps players J. J.
• 8:59
  Speaker 6: Whyt The core the Greek chorus is like, how can
• 9:02
  Speaker 6: this happen? It's an atrocity? Which all right, right? And
• 9:06
  Speaker 6: Cooper's down at the end of July, the last Sunday
• 9:08
  Speaker 6: in July, Carlos Beltran's gonna go in now? Is he
• 9:11
  Speaker 6: a first ballot Hall of Famer to you, maybe not right, He's.
• 9:15
  Speaker 5: Like, eh, Hall of Famer. He's in, so he's a
• 9:18
  Speaker 5: Hall of Famer.
• 9:19
  Speaker 6: Numbers would put him in, Yeah, but his candidacy may
• 9:22
  Speaker 6: have been clouded by right before he was done at
• 9:24
  Speaker 6: the end of his career, he was the centerpiece of
• 9:27
  Speaker 6: that cheating scandal with the astros and banging the trash can.
• 9:30
  Speaker 6: He was like one of the ring leaders of it,
• 9:31
  Speaker 6: and that couldn't have helped. Now, is that rise to
• 9:33
  Speaker 6: the level of steroids? Another discussion cheating the game? Integery
• 9:38
  Speaker 6: to the game. One of the one of the criteria
• 9:40
  Speaker 6: for voting for the Hall of Fame, it's on the
• 9:42
  Speaker 6: ballot is character yep, character clause All right, are there
• 9:46
  Speaker 6: vendettas here? Does it make the Hall look bad? I
• 9:49
  Speaker 6: didn't even looked. I didn't even get to the story
• 9:51
  Speaker 6: of like who's going in, Like who advanced We don't
• 9:54
  Speaker 6: know yet yet. But Belichick didn't advance. But he didn't
• 9:57
  Speaker 6: make the group and he was told Friday. So obviously
• 10:01
  Speaker 6: Bill Belichick is a Pro Football Hall of Fame coach. Now,
• 10:04
  Speaker 6: my thing is part of the flaw in the system
• 10:07
  Speaker 6: is it's always systemic because a lot of times in
• 10:09
  Speaker 6: baseball problem problems arose because on the baseball writer's ballot,
• 10:13
  Speaker 6: on the the one we get, you can only vote
• 10:14
  Speaker 6: for ten guys, and sometimes that created situations where, well,
• 10:19
  Speaker 6: that guy doesn't need my vote, I'm gonna vote for
• 10:21
  Speaker 6: this other guy because that other guy's.
• 10:22
  Speaker 5: Gonna get in.
• 10:23
  Speaker 6: And I have used that those very gymnastics when filling
• 10:26
  Speaker 6: out my ballot. It's like, okay, well, yeah, that guy's
• 10:29
  Speaker 6: gonna or even if you have five percent to stay
• 10:32
  Speaker 6: on the ballot, like I'm gonna vote for this guy,
• 10:34
  Speaker 6: so he stays on the ballot and I'm not gonna
• 10:35
  Speaker 6: vote for that guy, and it's gonna hurt his totals
• 10:37
  Speaker 6: this time, you know what I mean. So you do
• 10:39
  Speaker 6: do that calculus?
• 10:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, it.
• 10:41
  Speaker 5: Shouldn't come into it, but you can't help it. It is.
• 10:45
  Speaker 6: You do the calculus there. So somebody might have done that.
• 10:48
  Speaker 6: There might have been people with a personal a vendetta.
• 10:51
  Speaker 6: A lot of people will say, well, it's because he
• 10:52
  Speaker 6: wasn't nice to writers.
• 10:53
  Speaker 5: That's not it. No one really can.
• 10:54
  Speaker 7: I don't even know that he would have been not
• 10:56
  Speaker 7: nice to any of the writers that were voting for it.
• 10:58
  Speaker 5: Yeah, how was he not nice? To Bill Polly, you know,
• 11:00
  Speaker 5: and beating his teams. Yeah, multiple times.
• 11:03
  Speaker 6: Yeah, So the politics of it, no one wants to
• 11:06
  Speaker 6: see how the sausage has made. But the big flaw
• 11:08
  Speaker 6: in this is the adjustment where you don't have to
• 11:11
  Speaker 6: wait five years anymore. So me, it's like they just
• 11:14
  Speaker 6: changed that right for coaches. You don't have to wait
• 11:16
  Speaker 6: five years.
• 11:17
  Speaker 7: Why just changed it for coaches in the idea that
• 11:20
  Speaker 7: like they wanted to make sure. I think that they
• 11:22
  Speaker 7: got guys in before they passed away potentially, But.
• 11:24
  Speaker 6: Also, well, who's coaching till their ninety these days? Mark
• 11:27
  Speaker 6: Levier walking through that door?
• 11:29
  Speaker 7: That's very true. But I think that you could see
• 11:31
  Speaker 7: Tom Moore, he was easy into his nineties and he
• 11:34
  Speaker 7: just nug it up. But like there's certain classes of it.
• 11:38
  Speaker 7: And I saw Mike Sando from the Athletic putting exactly
• 11:41
  Speaker 7: what you put out to, you know type in response
• 11:45
  Speaker 7: to JJ Watts's message last night, and mentioned how some
• 11:48
  Speaker 7: voters could have been looking for it for their advocates
• 11:51
  Speaker 7: for specific senior players. They get the fifty voters get
• 11:54
  Speaker 7: to pick three of the five. It was Belichick, Robert Kraft,
• 11:58
  Speaker 7: Robert Craig. I believe that's Anderson and Greenwood. I'm gonna
• 12:02
  Speaker 7: miss misremember his first name, So competing one through three spots,
• 12:05
  Speaker 7: and that's how you're able to roll through.
• 12:07
  Speaker 5: You need to get forty of those fifty votes.
• 12:11
  Speaker 7: The tough thing for me is if you're gonna paint
• 12:13
  Speaker 7: it behind spygate or if you're gonna paint it behind
• 12:15
  Speaker 7: the flake gate. Those are absolutely issues, no doubt about it.
• 12:20
  Speaker 7: I think, like the Beltran scenario that you pointed out,
• 12:23
  Speaker 7: they would be little specs of things that you can
• 12:27
  Speaker 7: pick on out pretty quickly.
• 12:28
  Speaker 5: Instead of full fledged mis.
• 12:32
  Speaker 7: Ingredient where you're putting this thing in, you gotta throw
• 12:34
  Speaker 7: the entire soup out. You see somebody who instead. There
• 12:39
  Speaker 7: have been so much and there has been so much
• 12:42
  Speaker 7: around his name that I would be fascinated to see
• 12:45
  Speaker 7: if any of that leaked in or if it's there's
• 12:48
  Speaker 7: a lot of guys that think Ken Anderson needs to
• 12:50
  Speaker 7: be in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. I might
• 12:52
  Speaker 7: not be one of them, right Like I might not
• 12:55
  Speaker 7: believe that those numbers that he needs to be in.
• 12:58
  Speaker 7: I think Robert or Roger Craig probably should have been
• 13:00
  Speaker 7: in a while ago. But like you look at some
• 13:03
  Speaker 7: of these the names on there, his still is the
• 13:07
  Speaker 7: number one on the ballot. Bar none agreed, and I'm
• 13:10
  Speaker 7: excited to hear if indeed we ever hear from a
• 13:13
  Speaker 7: couple of the explanation and then.
• 13:14
  Speaker 6: Yeah, and then but then again it's like okay, well
• 13:16
  Speaker 6: that guy's been waiting a long time, and like okay.
• 13:19
  Speaker 6: So there's mechanics to it, and it's a secret ballot
• 13:23
  Speaker 6: which the Baseball Writers, the Baseball Hall of Fame vote. Okay,
• 13:26
  Speaker 6: but you have to be ten years in the Baseball
• 13:28
  Speaker 6: Writers Association, ten consecutive years of membership in good standing
• 13:32
  Speaker 6: to get a ballot, and then you basically have it.
• 13:34
  Speaker 6: There's it used to be for life. Now it's kind
• 13:36
  Speaker 6: of not. They're kind of like pulling it after you've
• 13:38
  Speaker 6: been retired for a while because a lot of those
• 13:40
  Speaker 6: guys were the guys who didn't evolve. And no one's
• 13:42
  Speaker 6: first ballot because Babe Ruth wasn't first, you know, unanimous,
• 13:45
  Speaker 6: No One's nanamou.
• 13:46
  Speaker 5: Because Babe Ruth wasn't. How can I vote for this guy?
• 13:48
  Speaker 7: You know, I want to be doing it better than
• 13:49
  Speaker 7: the Heisman Trust, who has like nineteen hundred people.
• 13:52
  Speaker 8: And they want to those guys they want to withhold
• 13:54
  Speaker 8: the standards of the Hall.
• 13:55
  Speaker 3: By saying we canmous.
• 13:58
  Speaker 6: Because other guys were so a lot of guys went,
• 14:00
  Speaker 6: lot of guys, A lot of guys since the stereotor era,
• 14:02
  Speaker 6: will turn in like blank ballots. It's their own form
• 14:04
  Speaker 6: of protest. And that's you know, so that means no
• 14:08
  Speaker 6: one can be unanimous. But I don't know, Baseball writers,
• 14:10
  Speaker 6: it is what it is. I've always said that, you know,
• 14:13
  Speaker 6: we always we can't get if we had fifty people vote,
• 14:16
  Speaker 6: we'd have forty forty people tell us today is Wednesday,
• 14:18
  Speaker 6: and ten would say something else, and we'd say the
• 14:21
  Speaker 6: sky is blue, and ten people would say, no, it's
• 14:22
  Speaker 6: not real.
• 14:23
  Speaker 3: You'll never agree.
• 14:23
  Speaker 8: You can you show the same picture of two people
• 14:25
  Speaker 8: in those lay different things pictures.
• 14:27
  Speaker 6: When I when I was at COOPERSTOWNE and I had
• 14:29
  Speaker 6: to speak, I had to introduced Murray Chass from the
• 14:31
  Speaker 6: New York Times as the uh He was the Writer's
• 14:33
  Speaker 6: Wing inductee that year because I was president and Baseball Writers.
• 14:36
  Speaker 6: So I'm standing on the hill there and all the
• 14:38
  Speaker 6: baseball all my baseball card collection was seated behind me,
• 14:42
  Speaker 6: like all Hall of Famers are seated behind me, and
• 14:44
  Speaker 6: they're like, they're all like, keep it short, quick, kid,
• 14:47
  Speaker 6: keep it short.
• 14:47
  Speaker 5: It's hot out here, short out of here. Yeah.
• 14:49
  Speaker 6: But one of the things I said, I don't remember
• 14:51
  Speaker 6: much of my little thirty second pre amble given Murray
• 14:55
  Speaker 6: as his plaque, but I said, when you get a
• 14:58
  Speaker 6: passionate group like the Baseball writers, census can be elusive,
• 15:01
  Speaker 6: but when you reach it, it's very sweet, right, because
• 15:04
  Speaker 6: when you coalesce around it, like that was the year
• 15:06
  Speaker 6: that Molitor and Eckersley went in, and you know, neither
• 15:08
  Speaker 6: one of them was unanimous, but they were both, you know,
• 15:11
  Speaker 6: pretty obvious, and they both went in, and it is
• 15:15
  Speaker 6: hard to get consensus. And when you're dealing with guys
• 15:17
  Speaker 6: who have been through the ringer like, yeah, you're right, Billy.
• 15:20
  Speaker 6: There's guys who are probably passionate that Roger Craig should
• 15:23
  Speaker 6: have been in.
• 15:24
  Speaker 7: That they've been waiting and how impactful he was to
• 15:26
  Speaker 7: those forty nine er teams, what.
• 15:28
  Speaker 5: He gives them. Why isn't he in like already?
• 15:30
  Speaker 6: And so everybody has their own kind of paradigms and
• 15:34
  Speaker 6: stuff like that. But it was fascinating for me to
• 15:35
  Speaker 6: watch it because I sit here and take the abuse
• 15:38
  Speaker 6: of these writers think they're so you know, they think
• 15:41
  Speaker 6: they're so smarter than everybody, and they don't what are
• 15:43
  Speaker 6: they doing in their ivory tower. They don't deserve to
• 15:45
  Speaker 6: have this. Why do they get to the thumbs down reaction? Yeah,
• 15:48
  Speaker 6: it's part of the gig. And I've had people say
• 15:50
  Speaker 6: that and then they find out that I have a vote,
• 15:52
  Speaker 6: and then they're like, oh really, and then they're okay, like, well,
• 15:55
  Speaker 6: who'd you vote? And then it's like and then it's
• 15:58
  Speaker 6: either how did you vote for their's those steroid cheaters
• 16:01
  Speaker 6: or how did you did you.
• 16:02
  Speaker 5: Not vote for bonds and clements?
• 16:04
  Speaker 7: But when you're talking about legacy, and this is the
• 16:06
  Speaker 7: ultimate legacy, if indeed you're going to make something that
• 16:11
  Speaker 7: is this out of out of bounds might be the
• 16:14
  Speaker 7: wrong way of putting it, but this is such an outlier,
• 16:17
  Speaker 7: I think this deserves an explanation, Like if you're gonna
• 16:20
  Speaker 7: continue rolling through here, I think you deserve it to
• 16:23
  Speaker 7: football fans to say, hey.
• 16:26
  Speaker 5: This is what it was and you don't. I don't
• 16:28
  Speaker 5: have to agree with it.
• 16:29
  Speaker 7: I probably won't, but that to me is if cause again,
• 16:33
  Speaker 7: this isn't prom king at Greenfield High School two thousand
• 16:37
  Speaker 7: and one. That might matter if you want to throw
• 16:39
  Speaker 7: it on your Twitter bio.
• 16:40
  Speaker 3: What are you trying to say here?
• 16:41
  Speaker 7: But this, this stuff matters due like this, this matters
• 16:46
  Speaker 7: in the grand scheme of the league, in the sport
• 16:49
  Speaker 7: in legacy. It matters to and I know people don't
• 16:53
  Speaker 7: like them, so this might not matter to anybody else,
• 16:56
  Speaker 7: freaking matters to Bill Belichick, who might be the greatest
• 16:59
  Speaker 7: historian of the game that we've seen over the last decade,
• 17:04
  Speaker 7: three decades.
• 17:04
  Speaker 3: And it's something you can change, you can. Now.
• 17:10
  Speaker 6: Here's the thing, though, Let's Bill Belichick goes in next
• 17:13
  Speaker 6: year and gets his flowers and stuff. He's still a
• 17:15
  Speaker 6: Hall of Famer and he's still in unless he declines
• 17:20
  Speaker 6: and says, we think there's a difference. But once you
• 17:23
  Speaker 6: go in, Ted Simmons had to wait forever. Ted Simmons
• 17:26
  Speaker 6: was one of the most egregious Hall of Fame drop offs.
• 17:28
  Speaker 6: He one year on the ballot and he's out, and
• 17:31
  Speaker 6: his numbers are right there with Carlton Fisk and Johnny
• 17:33
  Speaker 6: Bench and all the other catchers who went in of
• 17:35
  Speaker 6: his era that he played with and against. And it
• 17:38
  Speaker 6: was I didn't have a vote then but I just
• 17:40
  Speaker 6: look at it, go, are you kidding me? And then
• 17:42
  Speaker 6: the Veterans Committee righted that wrong. Jerry Kramer. For years
• 17:45
  Speaker 6: people thought he was already in because he was so
• 17:46
  Speaker 6: good in part of those packers seams. Then he finally
• 17:48
  Speaker 6: went in. Once you're in, Yeah, once you're in, you're in,
• 17:53
  Speaker 6: and like that just kind of falls away. Now like
• 17:55
  Speaker 6: the guy I might agree with, the guy might hold it,
• 17:58
  Speaker 6: but in public estimation, I think it's like, oh, yeah,
• 18:00
  Speaker 6: he's a Hall of Famer. Like I don't think it.
• 18:02
  Speaker 6: I don't think there is initially whether your first ballot
• 18:05
  Speaker 6: or not, right, and that is like it's it's a
• 18:07
  Speaker 6: class within the class.
• 18:08
  Speaker 5: Your Hall of famers are one thing, and then there's.
• 18:10
  Speaker 6: First ballot, was the first ballot.
• 18:13
  Speaker 3: It's like a special level of VIP.
• 18:15
  Speaker 6: It kind of is, yeah, And so that's just the
• 18:18
  Speaker 6: distinction within the distinction. Belichick, by all, every measure should
• 18:22
  Speaker 6: be Like there were people a couple of years ago
• 18:24
  Speaker 6: saying they should rename the Lombardi Trophy right and take
• 18:27
  Speaker 6: Vince's name off of it and put Belichick's name on it,
• 18:29
  Speaker 6: which is absurd, but I.
• 18:31
  Speaker 3: Agree with that.
• 18:31
  Speaker 6: Again, that's just that's the soup that we're in. So
• 18:35
  Speaker 6: it's fascinating on a number of levels. But if Belichick
• 18:38
  Speaker 6: wants to make a statement, he can just like be
• 18:39
  Speaker 6: like t o or whatever and just refuse to.
• 18:41
  Speaker 7: Go Yeah, I just can't see it, Like he he
• 18:44
  Speaker 7: cares too much about the sport.
• 18:45
  Speaker 6: Here's the thing, here's here's the other thing, and here's
• 18:47
  Speaker 6: your conspiracy theory. I don't usually smoke the grass from
• 18:49
  Speaker 6: the knoll, but Robert Kraft is up to now if
• 18:53
  Speaker 6: he gets in and doesn't and they're like, well, we
• 18:56
  Speaker 6: just don't want to make this Patriots Polosi right, and
• 18:59
  Speaker 6: like well or Craft put his thumb on the scale
• 19:02
  Speaker 6: with some of the voters said that was your Yeah,
• 19:06
  Speaker 6: I don't want to, you know, I'm just saying, you know,
• 19:08
  Speaker 6: Bill had again.
• 19:10
  Speaker 7: That would be that would be a deranged one, but
• 19:13
  Speaker 7: it would deranged. But to me, I actually think that
• 19:16
  Speaker 7: one's more likely than it being that they don't like
• 19:18
  Speaker 7: his twenty seven year old girlfriend. Right.
• 19:21
  Speaker 8: Like the.
• 19:22
  Speaker 7: Fact that Robert Kraft actually went and tried to back
• 19:25
  Speaker 7: channel to not allow the guy to get hired by
• 19:27
  Speaker 7: the Falcons, which was very very well reported a couple
• 19:31
  Speaker 7: of years ago when he was up for the gig.
• 19:33
  Speaker 6: If Robert Craft goes in, is there a two for
• 19:35
  Speaker 6: one special at the Orchards of Asia day spot.
• 19:37
  Speaker 8: He talk about me, I guess we know what's worse
• 19:41
  Speaker 8: now on football circles.
• 19:42
  Speaker 5: I guess.
• 19:44
  Speaker 6: There's a lot of layers to this and we could
• 19:46
  Speaker 6: get out and it isn't is it?
• 19:49
  Speaker 5: Is it?
• 19:50
  Speaker 6: It's probably not that important, but now we're going to
• 19:52
  Speaker 6: relitigate spygate and deflate Gate. By the way, I'm a
• 19:55
  Speaker 6: bad host because we do a local show and been
• 19:58
  Speaker 6: doing a local show for a.
• 19:59
  Speaker 5: Long time anymore stuff.
• 20:00
  Speaker 6: When that stuff was percolating, I didn't burn a lot
• 20:03
  Speaker 6: of calories talking about Spygate or deflate Gate because it's like,
• 20:06
  Speaker 6: we'll just watch it from afar, Like, how does it
• 20:08
  Speaker 6: affect us?
• 20:08
  Speaker 5: Who cares?
• 20:09
  Speaker 6: It's something that a lot of guys screamed national guys
• 20:11
  Speaker 6: and like a lot of guys screamed at each other
• 20:13
  Speaker 6: about it. I personally, I thought Spygate was worse and
• 20:17
  Speaker 6: was almost deflate Gate, and the enforcement of it was
• 20:19
  Speaker 6: like a makeup call because we let spy Gate was
• 20:21
  Speaker 6: pretty bad and deflake Gate was like, oh, it's not
• 20:24
  Speaker 6: that bad, but let's throw the hammer of justice on
• 20:26
  Speaker 6: them for to make up for the what we didn't
• 20:29
  Speaker 6: do last time.
• 20:30
  Speaker 7: If you were if you were all in on the
• 20:32
  Speaker 7: Connor Stallions Michigan thing, then you were very very anti spygating,
• 20:36
  Speaker 7: right because I think Spygate walchs so the Michigan football
• 20:39
  Speaker 7: team could run in their signals and game planning and
• 20:44
  Speaker 7: spotlighting to it.
• 20:46
  Speaker 5: The Astros thing too, there were a lot of teams
• 20:48
  Speaker 5: doing it.
• 20:48
  Speaker 7: There were a lot of teams cheating once it got taught, like.
• 20:52
  Speaker 6: The Yankees had a guy with the Apple Watch getting
• 20:54
  Speaker 6: signs in from the Flate game.
• 20:56
  Speaker 7: One just won't leave because there's phenomenal memes of it,
• 21:00
  Speaker 7: like the amount that you still see to this day
• 21:04
  Speaker 7: are are rather impressive, and it just became synonymous that
• 21:07
  Speaker 7: one more almost with Brady than Belichick out. I'll be
• 21:11
  Speaker 7: interested to see if Brady gets tainted when when he
• 21:13
  Speaker 7: comes up in a couple of years, because remember the
• 21:15
  Speaker 7: normal Hall of Famers, modern era ones still have to
• 21:18
  Speaker 7: wait five years. That's the Senior Committee for Coaches is
• 21:20
  Speaker 7: the ones that change to do that, and they changed
• 21:23
  Speaker 7: it just a couple of years ago.
• 21:25
  Speaker 5: Within the last year.
• 21:26
  Speaker 7: Mike Sandol, like I said he was, he was kind
• 21:28
  Speaker 7: of going out on a brigade last night to try to.
• 21:31
  Speaker 5: Not even necessarily defend.
• 21:33
  Speaker 7: But he's just like, hey, I think this might be
• 21:36
  Speaker 7: what happened as a Hall of Fame voter. He said
• 21:38
  Speaker 7: it changed I think in twenty twenty five, and Billy
• 21:43
  Speaker 7: he at least offered an explanation the one you were
• 21:45
  Speaker 7: looking for. Yeah, and your point, I don't know.
• 21:47
  Speaker 6: Somebody who had a vote other than the guy from
• 21:50
  Speaker 6: OutKick who presented Belichick's case mity.
• 21:53
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 21:53
  Speaker 6: Other than that, I don't know anybody who had vote.
• 21:55
  Speaker 6: And that's to who you're mad at. And that's the
• 21:57
  Speaker 6: thing is, though, when there's no transparency, people don't know
• 21:59
  Speaker 6: who to be mad at.
• 21:59
  Speaker 5: So mad at everybody?
• 22:00
  Speaker 8: Well, sure, but that's tech nider kids. A question to you,
• 22:03
  Speaker 8: do you make your public ballot public?
• 22:04
  Speaker 3: I know you do.
• 22:05
  Speaker 8: For baseball writers, you always do that because it's kind
• 22:07
  Speaker 8: of fun to talk about for some people. But there
• 22:10
  Speaker 8: were going to breaks here. But there's a lot more
• 22:12
  Speaker 8: angles on this I think we have to get to,
• 22:14
  Speaker 8: and that question is one of them, like how much
• 22:16
  Speaker 8: do you believe in public ballots? Private ballots? Should there
• 22:18
  Speaker 8: be an explanation? I think one I normally don't think so,
• 22:21
  Speaker 8: but I would agree with you, Billy. We're at something
• 22:23
  Speaker 8: unique like this, someone has to at least give some
• 22:26
  Speaker 8: sort of explanation. But there's also a function in private
• 22:29
  Speaker 8: balloting and secret balloting and the protection of that vote
• 22:32
  Speaker 8: every year, and I think there's an aspect of that too,
• 22:34
  Speaker 8: as we do this in twenty twenty five and not
• 22:37
  Speaker 8: in nineteen seventy five or eighty five, as the immedia
• 22:40
  Speaker 8: landscape has changed, how we communicate has changed.
• 22:42
  Speaker 5: We're off and running.
• 22:43
  Speaker 6: It's going to be hot take humpted, and if you've
• 22:44

• 24:39
  Speaker 5: Little bit later on. But I think there's there's something too.
• 24:43
  Speaker 5: Would Paul Chris.
• 24:44
  Speaker 7: Be on like the all Bill Belichick team, where people think, like,
• 24:47
  Speaker 7: listen to this guy's press conferences, this guy.
• 24:49
  Speaker 5: Does, this guy stinks. How can you how can he
• 24:52
  Speaker 5: motivate anybody? Listen to him? All I saw it's a
• 24:54
  Speaker 5: great day to play, It's a great opportunity to go
• 24:56
  Speaker 5: out there and play. And then behind closed doors he's.
• 24:59
  Speaker 7: Oh Drick in an absolute scene and he is the
• 25:03
  Speaker 7: ringleader and the guy that everyone wants to be around.
• 25:05
  Speaker 7: That did kind of seem a little bit more like
• 25:07
  Speaker 7: Bill that once you've got him behind closed doors, maybe
• 25:09
  Speaker 7: there were more Moss moments as people to the party.
• 25:14
  Speaker 6: Who've broken bread with him in a big table at
• 25:16
  Speaker 6: Saint almost during the combines have said he's just the best,
• 25:19
  Speaker 6: best stories, just the loosest, greatest dude ever.
• 25:23
  Speaker 5: Except for what he's standing in front of the post.
• 25:25
  Speaker 8: Different, different than the image he presented at the podium
• 25:27
  Speaker 8: of all those years that most people thought, you know,
• 25:29
  Speaker 8: the on the Cincinnati, the image that he chose to present.
• 25:32
  Speaker 8: I mean, that's a conscious decision and that's fine. He
• 25:34
  Speaker 8: wanted to be like that. But uh yeah, I mean
• 25:38
  Speaker 8: I've heard that as well. You know, a totally different
• 25:40
  Speaker 8: personality and a funny guy and uh but not enough,
• 25:42
  Speaker 8: I guess to please your fellow brethren and to make
• 25:45
  Speaker 8: it into the all of him in the first ballot.
• 25:47
  Speaker 7: But it's incredible when you think of what that what
• 25:51
  Speaker 7: that Brown staff was and who was on that Obviously
• 25:54
  Speaker 7: Saban and uh and Belichick will be the top ones
• 25:57
  Speaker 7: that you think about. But much like you know, Matt
• 26:00
  Speaker 7: the floor of the Washington Tree, when it's Shanahan and McVay,
• 26:03
  Speaker 7: you think of, all of a sudden, here's Kirk Ferrence
• 26:05
  Speaker 7: Kirk ference coaching the offensive line all time winning is
• 26:08
  Speaker 7: the big ten coach in history. Like funny how that
• 26:11
  Speaker 7: could all of a sudden just jump and sway in
• 26:13
  Speaker 7: And then oh that makes the that makes the soup
• 26:15
  Speaker 7: a little bit different.
• 26:16
  Speaker 5: There in that Cleveland staff man all timer.
• 26:18
  Speaker 3: Eric Mangini was on that staff, MIKEA.
• 26:20
  Speaker 8: Lombardi who just you know, and then Ozzie Knwsom was
• 26:23
  Speaker 8: director of pro personnel in from the office that was
• 26:26
  Speaker 8: the front office. And yeah, it's just an incredible And
• 26:29
  Speaker 8: there are other guys too that were like grunts. I
• 26:31
  Speaker 8: think that became very I'm trying blanking now, but there
• 26:33
  Speaker 8: was an incredible number of guys.
• 26:35
  Speaker 5: I don't know.
• 26:36
  Speaker 3: I think it's it's wild. How much does group think
• 26:39
  Speaker 3: involved in this? Guys?
• 26:40
  Speaker 6: I mean, well, it's it's there's some of them writers
• 26:44
  Speaker 6: get together and and this this cabal. Now you're you're
• 26:49
  Speaker 6: for for me? In my experience the baseball fame. You
• 26:51
  Speaker 6: might talk about it like at a World Series or
• 26:54
  Speaker 6: a winter meetings or something, or you know, it might
• 26:57
  Speaker 6: come up over a beer, you might, but very little
• 27:01
  Speaker 6: bandwidth is spent in a group talking about guys cases.
• 27:06
  Speaker 5: Would you talk to you sit and wrestle it with
• 27:08
  Speaker 5: your ballot.
• 27:08
  Speaker 6: Now here's the other thing again, when it comes to
• 27:11
  Speaker 6: when there's only fifty guys and some guys are protesting
• 27:13
  Speaker 6: spygat or to flakate. Other guys are protesting that they're
• 27:16
  Speaker 6: pissed that they change the rule sure to one year.
• 27:18
  Speaker 6: Yeah right, and it's like that might be all right,
• 27:21
  Speaker 6: I'm not going to take it. And yeah, it's like
• 27:24
  Speaker 6: I'm not going to vote for somebody in their first year,
• 27:26
  Speaker 6: it's unfair to the guys who had to wait five years.
• 27:28
  Speaker 7: I guess I would understand that one more than any
• 27:32
  Speaker 7: merit because because if it's something merit based with Belichick
• 27:36
  Speaker 7: that I don't understand like that that I simply don't know,
• 27:39
  Speaker 7: I will understand. That to me would be more of, Hey,
• 27:42
  Speaker 7: look at what we're doing, how we've done business for
• 27:45
  Speaker 7: the last whatever how long is the Pro Football Hall
• 27:46
  Speaker 7: of Fame been around seventy something years? This is how
• 27:49
  Speaker 7: we do business, this is how we operate. We're not
• 27:51
  Speaker 7: going to change just for one individual who's coming up.
• 27:54
  Speaker 5: And there might be other guys who I don't know.
• 27:56
  Speaker 6: I don't know the mechanics and I don't know like
• 27:58
  Speaker 6: how many they could vote for or whatever.
• 28:00
  Speaker 7: They could vote for three of the five guys that
• 28:02
  Speaker 7: were okay, you could vote for three of the five
• 28:03
  Speaker 7: and they had to have forty of how to get
• 28:05
  Speaker 7: forty of the fifty votes other than the guy with
• 28:07
  Speaker 7: the most votes gets in.
• 28:08
  Speaker 5: Everybody else needs forty.
• 28:10
  Speaker 7: Everybody else needs forty medical yep, So only one could
• 28:13
  Speaker 7: get in if you if them got fifty yep.
• 28:15
  Speaker 6: The thinking is Belichick's a Hall of famer if and
• 28:19
  Speaker 6: I'm not, I'm putting myself in the mindset of like,
• 28:21
  Speaker 6: he's gonna get in obviously, but these other guys, yeah,
• 28:24
  Speaker 6: the Greenwood, Anderson and Craig, this is their last shot.
• 28:28
  Speaker 3: So they we have to get them in.
• 28:29
  Speaker 6: I'm not putting in a coach or a contributor over
• 28:32
  Speaker 6: a player who deserves it, because that player this is
• 28:33
  Speaker 6: his last chance and if he doesn't get in, now
• 28:36
  Speaker 6: he ain't getting in.
• 28:37
  Speaker 5: Belichick's obviously getting in. So it's like, Okay, I'm gonna
• 28:40
  Speaker 5: vote for it.
• 28:40
  Speaker 8: But the billion's points. If you make that move voting it,
• 28:43
  Speaker 8: you know you're gonna get reaction. You have to be
• 28:45
  Speaker 8: ready to explain that, like there's.
• 28:46
  Speaker 5: An excell thing.
• 28:47
  Speaker 3: I suppose there's a logic to that.
• 28:49
  Speaker 8: Okay, this is the way the rules set out, and
• 28:51
  Speaker 8: now I had to make sure and this and that
• 28:53
  Speaker 8: that's why I voted. But then you have to know
• 28:56
  Speaker 8: that there's gonna warrant some questions when you make a move.
• 28:59
  Speaker 3: Like that to not vote into Bill Belichick.
• 29:01
  Speaker 6: And that's about transparency and like the secret ballot, the
• 29:05
  Speaker 6: voters and now the electors and now people are gonna
• 29:07
  Speaker 6: look at that, and there will be some heat.
• 29:09
  Speaker 7: In that regard, and that to me is again I
• 29:11
  Speaker 7: don't have to agree with it. I probably won't right
• 29:13
  Speaker 7: Like again, if you're going to vote, because this is
• 29:15
  Speaker 7: again the well, I can do this, and I can
• 29:17
  Speaker 7: do that, and this guy's gonna go here and this
• 29:19
  Speaker 7: guy's gonna go there. And but but what you're asked
• 29:22
  Speaker 7: to do in the here and now is, out of
• 29:25
  Speaker 7: these five guys, which three are Hall of Famers, and
• 29:28
  Speaker 7: and if I struggle to know who would be on
• 29:31
  Speaker 7: a list when Bill Belichick and then.
• 29:33
  Speaker 6: That would not be a senior committee though, And it's
• 29:35
  Speaker 6: charged with righting wrongs. And the wrong was that Roger
• 29:38
  Speaker 6: Craig and Ken Anderson that they weren't in right, And
• 29:41
  Speaker 6: so it's like, okay, that's our job is oversight.
• 29:44
  Speaker 7: We think k Anderson not being in is an oversight
• 29:46
  Speaker 7: and that's a big issue.
• 29:47
  Speaker 6: I mean, that would be, that would be the question,
• 29:51
  Speaker 6: you're not in the room when a guy makes the case.
• 29:54
  Speaker 5: If the guy makes a good.
• 29:55
  Speaker 7: Case, the one the one case for Kenn Anderson would
• 29:58
  Speaker 7: be look at the freaking face, man, this guy.
• 30:00
  Speaker 5: Rock like that would be that would be the one case.
• 30:03
  Speaker 3: The face mask is number one before they.
• 30:07
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I had a question. I think you know, I mean,
• 30:12
  Speaker 7: Joe Fla, Sure, there's a lot.
• 30:13
  Speaker 8: Of guys that have had one good year. That's why
• 30:15
  Speaker 8: I would agree with you. I don't think it can
• 30:17
  Speaker 8: just be one MVP. I think it's a body of work.
• 30:20
  Speaker 8: I still believe that if I still believe that. The
• 30:23
  Speaker 8: biggest difference now in the way I'll put it this way,
• 30:28
  Speaker 8: the way the votes might have been public or private.
• 30:31
  Speaker 8: The one thing is voters knew, okay, even if I
• 30:33
  Speaker 8: got published in the paper Drew forty years ago, that
• 30:36
  Speaker 8: they weren't really going to have to get a backlash
• 30:38
  Speaker 8: from the public.
• 30:38
  Speaker 3: They weren't really going to have to do it. But now,
• 30:40
  Speaker 3: with social media.
• 30:42
  Speaker 8: You can get mf up and down the line now
• 30:45
  Speaker 8: and it will break most humans at some point. And
• 30:48
  Speaker 8: there are some guys that just want to duck the
• 30:50
  Speaker 8: smoke and don't want to deal with it, and eventually
• 30:53
  Speaker 8: they cannot get docks enough, they can't get troll enough
• 30:56
  Speaker 8: on the Internet to be influencing their vote. And I
• 30:59
  Speaker 8: think that's why more and more guys are going in
• 31:01
  Speaker 8: unanimous in the Baseball Hall of fam than ever before.
• 31:04
  Speaker 3: And I think that there's an aspect of this too.
• 31:06
  Speaker 8: I think if these guys had their votes public and
• 31:09
  Speaker 8: they were getting, you know, people going after them on
• 31:13
  Speaker 8: social media for days on end, most would throw their
• 31:15
  Speaker 8: hands up in there and say, fine, I'll vote Rebelichick.
• 31:17
  Speaker 8: I just don't want to deal with this anymore. Like,
• 31:20
  Speaker 8: is there is there an how much of an aspect
• 31:21
  Speaker 8: you think that is? I I think it might. People
• 31:24
  Speaker 8: might think of it like, no, people are gonna vote
• 31:26
  Speaker 8: the way they feel. They're not gonna care about.
• 31:27
  Speaker 3: People on the internet. But I think it wears people
• 31:29
  Speaker 3: down eventually.
• 31:30
  Speaker 5: Again, really do who are the voters? That's the things
• 31:33
  Speaker 5: Bill Pollian care what you think about votes.
• 31:35
  Speaker 8: For people think of people, think of writers, people think
• 31:38
  Speaker 8: of all right, this must have been mena Kins and
• 31:41
  Speaker 8: then we're gonna.
• 31:41
  Speaker 3: Tweet the hell out of them.
• 31:43
  Speaker 5: Well, actually feel bad.
• 31:44
  Speaker 7: A decent amount of them are are guys that you
• 31:46
  Speaker 7: wouldn't even think of, Like Jared Bell has been covering
• 31:48
  Speaker 7: the NFL for thirty some years. Mike Freeman, formerly the AP,
• 31:51
  Speaker 7: is one of the voters. He's been covering the NFL
• 31:53
  Speaker 7: for thirty five years. It's not easy in new age
• 31:55
  Speaker 7: guys like Ben Solec, who's got a podcast in a microphone.
• 31:58
  Speaker 7: Let's go to the statement that Bill Pollyon made to
• 32:02
  Speaker 7: ESPN on Tuesday night, where he denied that he told
• 32:05
  Speaker 7: fellow voters that they should serve the one year pentance
• 32:08
  Speaker 7: because he heard from fellow voters to, you know.
• 32:10
  Speaker 5: Float that idea.
• 32:11
  Speaker 7: But he insisted that he didn't agree or disagree with
• 32:14
  Speaker 7: that proposal.
• 32:15
  Speaker 6: So I.
• 32:17
  Speaker 7: I heard somebody else say it, I can't say I
• 32:20
  Speaker 7: don't agree with it. But as they continue on the
• 32:23
  Speaker 7: ESPN statement from Poleon saying Craft had no knowledge of
• 32:26
  Speaker 7: the spygaid scheme, Pollon added that he could not remember
• 32:29
  Speaker 7: with one hundred percent certainty if he voted for Belichick,
• 32:32
  Speaker 7: saying ninety five percent sure he voted for the player
• 32:36
  Speaker 7: and a coach, most likely Elsie Greenwood. But I was
• 32:39
  Speaker 7: I was just shocked. I find not the billion kidd,
• 32:41
  Speaker 7: and he deserves to be in the Hall of Fame.
• 32:43
  Speaker 7: Peter King also said, holy bleate, I'm very very surprised.
• 32:46
  Speaker 7: A lot of things happen in that room that are unexpected,
• 32:48
  Speaker 7: and of course this is a big surprise to me.
• 32:51
  Speaker 8: How can you not remember who you were? I don't
• 32:53
  Speaker 8: believe that at all. I believe that zero percent from
• 32:56
  Speaker 8: Bill Pullian that he does not remember.
• 32:58
  Speaker 6: I will say that when you wrestle with the ballot
• 33:00
  Speaker 6: for a long time, as you do the Baseball writers,
• 33:03
  Speaker 6: the Hall of Fame ballot, you get it early December
• 33:05
  Speaker 6: has to be postmark before New Year, right, so it's
• 33:08
  Speaker 6: a holiday thing you spend. I got some free time.
• 33:11
  Speaker 6: I'm gonna look at this ballot and look come some
• 33:12
  Speaker 6: stats trying to.
• 33:13
  Speaker 5: Get the vacation.
• 33:14
  Speaker 6: But you go back and forth, back and forth, and
• 33:16
  Speaker 6: you I've shown you pictures that you guys have seen
• 33:19
  Speaker 6: your ballot. It's like it's a piece of paper with
• 33:21
  Speaker 6: a box next to the guy's name. It's like, right,
• 33:23
  Speaker 6: people think it's like the sea scrolls or something. It's
• 33:26
  Speaker 6: like this sacred thing. It's like it's like you're voting
• 33:28
  Speaker 6: for prom king at Greenfield.
• 33:29
  Speaker 5: Yeah see, but this one's different.
• 33:31
  Speaker 7: Like if they actually are still in the old school,
• 33:33
  Speaker 7: fifty person in a room, do they.
• 33:35
  Speaker 5: Do like heads up, seven up? I think they might.
• 33:37
  Speaker 5: But here here's the thing.
• 33:38
  Speaker 6: When you get your ballot, though, you wrestle with it,
• 33:40
  Speaker 6: and you wrestle with it, and you go through different
• 33:42
  Speaker 6: things and you check the boxes. Every year before I
• 33:44
  Speaker 6: send it out, I take a picture of my ballot
• 33:46
  Speaker 6: so that I remember that.
• 33:49
  Speaker 5: For the record.
• 33:50
  Speaker 8: Yeah, But voting or not voting and forgetting about, like
• 33:53
  Speaker 8: did I vote for Scott Rowland is different than Belichick.
• 33:55
  Speaker 8: That's a decision you poured over, you thought about, and
• 33:57
  Speaker 8: you absolutely do it for a reason or not like
• 34:01
  Speaker 8: because well, to me, I never expected this. I thought
• 34:04
  Speaker 8: that's a check it and forget it Bill Belichick.
• 34:06
  Speaker 6: I honestly didn't know until yesterday that Bill Belichick was eligible.
• 34:10
  Speaker 8: M M.
• 34:11
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I didn't know that he was not going to
• 34:13
  Speaker 5: be on the clock.
• 34:14
  Speaker 3: Possible guys forgot and didn't.
• 34:16
  Speaker 7: Vote for There's.
• 34:22
  Speaker 6: A good question though the Baseball Hall of Fame bellot,
• 34:24
  Speaker 6: you might have fifteen twenty names, right, you can vote
• 34:27
  Speaker 6: for ten or it might be even more than that.
• 34:28
  Speaker 6: But it's like i'd forget, yeah, but you can know.
• 34:31
  Speaker 6: But again, like it's like I've been voting for this
• 34:33
  Speaker 6: guy every year. I'm not not going to vote for
• 34:36
  Speaker 6: this guy.
• 34:36
  Speaker 7: The other interesting one from Peter King that that he
• 34:39
  Speaker 7: added in here on the story that was put together
• 34:42
  Speaker 7: late last night on ESPN by Don Van not a
• 34:45
  Speaker 7: Junior and Seth Wickersham. Because you know they're Patriots guys
• 34:48
  Speaker 7: and they were the ones that first found out about it.
• 34:50
  Speaker 7: The eight other semi finalists in the coaches category this year,
• 34:54
  Speaker 7: Tom Coughlin, Mike Holmgren, Chuck Knox, Buddy Parker, Dan Reeves,
• 34:58
  Speaker 7: Marty Schottenheimer, George Seffert, and Mike Shanahan. He also adds
• 35:02
  Speaker 7: in that with Belichick falling short this year means that
• 35:06
  Speaker 7: three other coaching head coaching favorites will likely have to
• 35:09
  Speaker 7: wait at least another year, that being Mike Shanahan and
• 35:14
  Speaker 7: Tom Claughlin in last year's coaching finalists who fell short
• 35:17
  Speaker 7: again in Mike Holmgren. So this will once again move
• 35:20
  Speaker 7: Mike Holmgren back, A King said, it pushes all these
• 35:23
  Speaker 7: coaches back at least a year. You have to ask yourself,
• 35:26
  Speaker 7: what does the Coaches Committee do next year? Are they
• 35:28
  Speaker 7: going to again advance Belichick? Wouldn't be so wouldn't it
• 35:32
  Speaker 7: be surprising if they don't. The decision has major impact
• 35:36
  Speaker 7: beyond just one year. So now that he's not now
• 35:38
  Speaker 7: that he's not a first ballot Hall of Famer, Drew,
• 35:41
  Speaker 7: this is where I'd more agree with you now, Like
• 35:44
  Speaker 7: now it doesn't matter now if he gets now, if
• 35:47
  Speaker 7: he gets in next year or the year after that
• 35:50
  Speaker 7: one doesn't matter. But when you're the first ballot, your
• 35:52
  Speaker 7: first time on, that's the little pin that you put
• 35:55
  Speaker 7: on the lapel like Dion and the rest of the
• 35:57
  Speaker 7: first ballot guys.
• 35:58
  Speaker 5: We're talking about last year where.
• 35:59
  Speaker 7: They said, what what if we made a penthouse of
• 36:02
  Speaker 7: the Pro Football Hall of Fame for all the guys
• 36:04
  Speaker 7: that are the.
• 36:05
  Speaker 5: Real good, the real hall of Fame of the Hall.
• 36:07
  Speaker 7: Of famers, Because he's saying doesn't matter, but it kind
• 36:11
  Speaker 7: of matters to all those guys in there. Once they're
• 36:14
  Speaker 7: in that room and they're at the ray Nichki luncheon, right,
• 36:17
  Speaker 7: I think that's what it is, where where it's all
• 36:18
  Speaker 7: the gold jacket guys. Later they're sitting around saying, I
• 36:22
  Speaker 7: was still way better than that.
• 36:23
  Speaker 8: Exactly how many guys deep down sitting there look at
• 36:26
  Speaker 8: the other guys say yeah, but you don't belong in
• 36:27
  Speaker 8: the same room as.
• 36:28
  Speaker 5: Well, I know, way better than them.
• 36:30
  Speaker 8: Yeah, how many times Needles said that, Drew? You know,
• 36:32
  Speaker 8: Dan Needle's always said that there should be a Hall
• 36:34
  Speaker 8: of Fame for the real Hall of Fame because.
• 36:36
  Speaker 3: That that we're letting everybody in.
• 36:37
  Speaker 8: And he always is there are people that believe that.
• 36:41
  Speaker 6: He and I went, oh, he had fifteen rounds over
• 36:46
  Speaker 6: Craig Bigio.
• 36:47
  Speaker 3: I remember this.
• 36:48
  Speaker 5: I remember. I remember we had a show one day.
• 36:50
  Speaker 5: We're arguing about Craig Bigio and he's.
• 36:52
  Speaker 6: Just a compiler and who cares like I'm like, dude,
• 36:54
  Speaker 6: he was an All star like he played second base catcher,
• 36:57
  Speaker 6: he played a center field like, so I argue with
• 37:01
  Speaker 6: needles and then I walked around and the I don't
• 37:02
  Speaker 6: remember who the Bruers were playing, but I went and asked,
• 37:04
  Speaker 6: like ten guys Bruis third base coach Rich Donald, Hey,
• 37:08
  Speaker 6: Rich Bigio, and Bigio was still playing, and I'm like,
• 37:11
  Speaker 6: it's Bigio, Hall of Famer. He's like today, tomorrow, yesterday,
• 37:15
  Speaker 6: next week, last month.
• 37:16
  Speaker 5: And everybody was like, how can you even ask that?
• 37:19
  Speaker 6: And it was like ten out of ten and they
• 37:21
  Speaker 6: might have I think they might have been playing the Cardinals.
• 37:23
  Speaker 7: Can I tell you why he's not? Because his son
• 37:25
  Speaker 7: costs me way too much money in fantasy baseball.
• 37:28
  Speaker 5: It was always thinking.
• 37:30
  Speaker 6: All right, so hot take, hot take, a lot of
• 37:32
  Speaker 6: hot takes being spewed about this Belichick snub.
• 37:35
  Speaker 5: Again.
• 37:36
  Speaker 6: We'll move on, We'll get over it. He'll go in
• 37:38
  Speaker 6: and if Kraft goes in, it will get funny. Maybe
• 37:39
  Speaker 6: Craft didn't want to be at the same ceremony as Belichick.
• 37:42
  Speaker 7: That would be fun fun They got the wrong former,
• 37:46
  Speaker 7: wrong guy, They got the wrong executive as the one
• 37:49
  Speaker 7: that's letting everybody know, Hey, maybe he was the one
• 37:50
  Speaker 7: that floated it.
• 37:51
  Speaker 5: Maybe that was like Bill Bully and misremembered it, cover
• 37:53
  Speaker 5: it up for his boy.
