• 0:05
  Speaker 1: every weekday morning from seven to ten on Altitude Sports
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: Radio ninety two five and on the Altitude Sports Radio app.
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: All right back here at Sanctuary for the National Jewish
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: Health Tournament VIC.
• 0:23
  Speaker 3: We do this every year and I'm proud to be
• 0:26
  Speaker 3: a member of this cause I've been to that hospital.
• 0:29
  Speaker 3: My son's been there with asthma. It is the top
• 0:33
  Speaker 3: pulmonary hospital in the country, one of the top hospitals
• 0:36
  Speaker 3: in the world. If you have issues with breathing issues
• 0:40
  Speaker 3: in that area, there is no better place than right here,
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: right off of Colfax and Colorado, and that's NNGAH. Today
• 0:48
  Speaker 3: we are raising money, as we do every season for
• 0:51
  Speaker 3: the Mortgage Academy, which is a small school that's on
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: the NJH campus, and it's full of kids who are
• 0:57
  Speaker 3: so sick they have to day on site, they have
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: to stay at the hospital. They can't live without going
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: to the hospital every day. But they're also taught and
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: they're they're given that recommendation and that allowance there at
• 1:10
  Speaker 3: the school.
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: It's amazed.
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: So we're raising money for those those folks. And I
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: had a chance to spend some time with them a
• 1:16
  Speaker 3: couple of months ago. It's really a great cause. I mean,
• 1:18
  Speaker 3: because some of those kids are really sick right and
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: this hospital makes them right again.
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: That's awesome. So we're here yet again doing this as
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: we love doing it every single year. Now. I know
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: that you guys probably talked about this on Friday a
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: little bit, but I do want to say it. It
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: is pretty incredible to go back and think. You know,
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: sometimes in sports you can get lucky by what.
• 1:43
  Speaker 4: You didn't get.
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: You know, in the case of the Avalanche, they had
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: the odds to get the number one overall seed or sorry,
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: number one overall draft pick. They got fourth and that
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: ended up being Calm macar twice.
• 1:56
  Speaker 4: They did that because they also had Autois pick one. Correct.
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: Now, would they have takenim a car if they got
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: the number one pick, I don't know. Maybe they would have,
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: maybe they wouldn't, who knows. But in the case of
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: the Broncos, it is widely rumored reported that the Broncos'
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: first option for who they wanted to run this franchise
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: was Jim Harbaugh. They went after him hard, even when
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: he said no. They went back and tried to get
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: him back interested in the job, and he still said no,
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: stayed another year at Michigan. Things Michigan blew up into
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: a million pieces. He won the national title, but allegations,
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: so he goes, all right, I'm gonna take the Chargers
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: gig now. So you landed on a backup option, which
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: is Sean Payton, who, in hindsight, is there anybody better
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: for that particular job at that particular moment, because think
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: about when he took over coming off that Hacket year,
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: you were lost as a franchise. They're like, what are
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: we gonna do quarterback? Big trade contract, doesn't seem like
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: it's gonna work out. The hell do we dig out
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: of this? And in two short years had you back
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: in the postseason and then competing for a Super Bowl
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: the year after that. Remarkable.
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: A sense of order, yeah, is what happened here. And
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: he brought a sense of order back to the organization,
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: which is why. And we talked about it last week
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: that the stuff going on with their pass rusher Cooper
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: is Jonathan Cooper.
• 3:21
  Speaker 4: If you missed it on Friday, that story.
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: Got a little wild arrested again.
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: It hasn't happened that often under Peyton's watch. Once Sean
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: Payton got involved here, things quieted down on that front.
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: You didn't see much of that police blotter material. What's
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: the worst is the worst you had?
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: Like Melvin Gordon got a speeding ticket once, like I know,
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: I know, Josh joshadh Renolds, but that was but he
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: was yeah, exactly, Yeah, it hasn't happened.
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: It just hasn't happened. So he's maintained a sense of order.
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: He's brought some of that credibility back to the organization stability.
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: And that's why you give him a five year deal.
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: Plus the fact that he and George Peyton, the Peyton tandem,
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: they work well together.
• 4:07
  Speaker 4: They just do.
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: So you have him both going on concurrent deals, both
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: five year deals, and let's see how long you can
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: ride this out.
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: Here's one thing I'll say about Sean Payton that I
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: think is an underrated aspect of him as a coach.
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: He might have the reputation for being brash, arrogant certainly
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: at times.
• 4:24
  Speaker 4: Right, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. You
• 4:28
  Speaker 4: know what he's not.
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: He is not selfish. And I'll give you an example
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: what a selfish guy. And he's got the tag moge
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: is it's my way or the highway. You're gonna do
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: things the way that I say it. Would that guy
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: ever give up play calling duties. No, not if he
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: was truly like that. Secondly, whether you're virtually every head
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: coach has an expertise, you're an offensive guy or a
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: defensive guy. He's obviously offensive minded. He put all of
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: his resources early in defense because he was like, I
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: know what's gonna be best for this team is fortifying
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: that part of it. First. Now you go out and
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: get the quarterback, because you need to have one of those,
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: regardless if you're offensive or defensive minded. But he did
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: not go out and make the big splashy we're picking
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: a wide receiver in the first round pick. He didn't
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: go out and do that. He didn't go spend big
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: money on some skill position talent. He was like, I'm
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: gonna get giant offensive lineman and we're gonna get defenders everywhere.
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: And I think for a coach in his position, it
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: would have been really easy for him to look at
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: the offense and say, we need some help up here.
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna go do it. I think to a certain extent,
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: Vic Fangio approached the offense from a defensive minded perspective,
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: and that's why Teddy Bridgewater was here. Was he like
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: the greatest quarterback? No, but he's like, he's not gonna
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: throw picks. Yeah, and that's gonna help my defense and
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: not put them in bad positions. To his credit, he
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: has been hyper focused on making the defense better because
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: he thought that was best for the team.
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: I raised this question on Friday, and I'm eager to
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: get both the responses because I asked a mosure this
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: and Brett.
• 6:02
  Speaker 4: Tell me what you think.
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: Head coach in town has one championship ring under his belt.
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: All right, He's won one championship, many years of winning culture,
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: he's a proven winner, proven winner. One of those coaches
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: got a five year extension. The other one is going
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: into his final year with the current deal.
• 6:23
  Speaker 4: Yep, who are the two coaches.
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: It's Betsy and it's Sean Paye.
• 6:26
  Speaker 4: So what's the difference.
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: The difference is Sean Payton just ascended now expectations that
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: bed NAR's had every year for like six seven years.
• 6:38
  Speaker 4: They're going to be coming for Sean Payton.
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: That's it now. If they can three years from now, Vick.
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: We're still talking about no Super Bowls for the Broncos.
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: He'll get somebody. But the resumes are the same, right, Yes, yeah,
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: of course.
• 6:49
  Speaker 5: But Ben's has also been here a decade and Peyton's
• 6:52
  Speaker 5: been on the scene for a couple three years now. Yeah,
• 6:54
  Speaker 5: so that you know he's on As Brett said, he's
• 6:56
  Speaker 5: on the climb. The team is on the climb. The
• 6:59
  Speaker 5: abs already climbed. Now they're ascended. Yeah, they're ascended. Now
• 7:04
  Speaker 5: it's just a matter of you know, they're up on
• 7:06
  Speaker 5: top of the mountain doing this, you know, And and
• 7:11
  Speaker 5: it's I just I hate it when people say that
• 7:15
  Speaker 5: I'm you know, I'm swallowing heavy doses of copium.
• 7:21
  Speaker 4: But I just know.
• 7:22
  Speaker 5: I mean, when you saw Joel and you reacted to
• 7:25
  Speaker 5: Joe last week, you saw what he said.
• 7:28
  Speaker 4: He was calm? Was he not sure?
• 7:32
  Speaker 5: Do you think the guy doesn't know his team doesn't
• 7:35
  Speaker 5: know that that all the players want Bednar as their coach.
• 7:40
  Speaker 5: Now you may think all the players are wrong and
• 7:42
  Speaker 5: that all the players can't play, and blah blah blah
• 7:44
  Speaker 5: blah blah. But if you've got some of the best
• 7:45
  Speaker 5: players on the planet who came up short say, listen,
• 7:48
  Speaker 5: don't don't change anything. You know, we we want this coach.
• 7:53
  Speaker 5: Why would you not keep the coach?
• 7:55
  Speaker 4: Sure?
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: I And again the tone that I felt in listening
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: to Joe talk was I he kept mentioning this, And
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: I don't think that people fans of the Avs want
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: to hear this because ultimately it doesn't matter.
• 8:11
  Speaker 4: You know.
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: It's that old Billy Bean quote of if you lose
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: the last game, nobody cares, right, But they went to
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: a very much kept going back to the idea. This
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: is a President's Trophy winning team that won eight of
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: their first nine playoff games and then things fell apart.
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: I'm choosing to believe more in the previous thing that
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: happened than the last four games of the year.
• 8:37
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I would also don't.
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: You can disagree with that, And I can understand why
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: people who are antsy right now, knowing that you know,
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: you've been, as you said, moj ascended on top of
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: the mountain. They just want to hoist the cup again.
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: And so maybe they don't want to hear those those
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: sorts of bigger perspectives. But I think it's healthy. As
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: somebody who runs an organization, you have to take all
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: of that into it.
• 9:05
  Speaker 5: Yeah, the fact that they have won one with this
• 9:08
  Speaker 5: current core and coaching staff and so on is good.
• 9:14
  Speaker 5: But I think the fans right and rightfully so. And
• 9:17
  Speaker 5: I think the Joe even echoed this last week.
• 9:22
  Speaker 4: It's not.
• 9:24
  Speaker 5: If you end up through this era with just one,
• 9:27
  Speaker 5: it's not good enough, that's for sure. Pierre Laquaw thought
• 9:31
  Speaker 5: the same way, it's not good enough. At the flip side,
• 9:34
  Speaker 5: I think to myself, man, we're pretty fortunate that we
• 9:38
  Speaker 5: have a team that every year goes for it, a
• 9:41
  Speaker 5: team that every year is in it, a team that's
• 9:45
  Speaker 5: right there. I mean you saw, Look the Tampa Bay
• 9:48
  Speaker 5: Lightning have been bounced four years in a row in
• 9:51
  Speaker 5: the first round.
• 9:51
  Speaker 4: Yeah. Is there any threat to Cooper whatsoever? Nope, nope.
• 9:55
  Speaker 5: Rod Brindlemore got bounced every didn't qualify and got bounced
• 10:00
  Speaker 5: every single year he was head coach of the Carolina Hurricanes.
• 10:03
  Speaker 5: And if you go back and you look at before
• 10:05
  Speaker 5: the season odds about them going to a Cup final
• 10:07
  Speaker 5: winning a Cup, pretty damn good. They've always been up there.
• 10:11
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 10:11
  Speaker 5: The late great Boomer Gordon on NHL Network Series six
• 10:14
  Speaker 5: M Man, he goes, he goes. I picked the Hurricanes
• 10:18
  Speaker 5: every year, and every single year they let me down.
• 10:20
  Speaker 5: He goes, this year, I'm picking the Hurricanes again.
• 10:24
  Speaker 4: I mean he.
• 10:24
  Speaker 5: Would because they're a very good club with a very
• 10:27
  Speaker 5: good coach. And it's just I guess it all depends
• 10:31
  Speaker 5: on your perspective. Are we lucky to have such a
• 10:33
  Speaker 5: good team year in and year out and great players
• 10:35
  Speaker 5: and Hall of famers to watch? Yeah, but if you
• 10:37
  Speaker 5: don't pull more out of this unit, you're going to
• 10:40
  Speaker 5: be incredibly disappointed.
• 10:42
  Speaker 3: All right, So an NBA and NHL champion crowned over
• 10:45
  Speaker 3: the weekend.
• 10:46
  Speaker 4: We're at that point where.
• 10:47
  Speaker 3: We asked this question, as we do every year, of
• 10:49
  Speaker 3: the teams here in Denver, which team is right now
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: presently constructed, which team is more primed to win a
• 10:56
  Speaker 3: championship next year?
• 10:57
  Speaker 4: The Avalanche? Agree with you?
• 11:01
  Speaker 3: Yeah, the Avalanche at this rate, right, they will be
• 11:05
  Speaker 3: Where do you think they'll be? Top three in terms
• 11:07
  Speaker 3: of odds?
• 11:07
  Speaker 5: Top three, top five max? Yeah, they'll be. They'll be
• 11:11
  Speaker 5: right there.
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: What's funny, as I think, for the first time, and
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: god knows how long over a decade, second place might
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: not be the Nuggets anymore, might be the Broncos.
• 11:23
  Speaker 4: That's a very valid point.
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, because it's always been as the Nuggets one and
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: two in whatever order that you want.
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: The Nuggets are in a weird place. And mind you,
• 11:30
  Speaker 3: today's a big day in the NBA. Today is the
• 11:33
  Speaker 3: day you can start talking to your own free agents. Yeah,
• 11:36
  Speaker 3: and negotiating with your own free agents people, Peyton Watson
• 11:41
  Speaker 3: and there's other guys. Sure, Jonas Valanciunas, what would you
• 11:45
  Speaker 3: do with him?
• 11:46
  Speaker 4: Vic?
• 11:46
  Speaker 5: I'm I'm curious to your your feeling about this. Do
• 11:50
  Speaker 5: you think that he truly wants to remain a Denver Nugget?
• 11:53
  Speaker 5: Or is it all just about the money for Peyton Watson.
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: I'm sure that money is a factor. It would have
• 11:59
  Speaker 3: to be. If one team offers under a ridiculous amount
• 12:02
  Speaker 3: of money, then you would have to take it.
• 12:04
  Speaker 5: Okay, the teams that are available to do that, Brooklyn.
• 12:07
  Speaker 5: Who else, Well, it depends.
• 12:10
  Speaker 3: Okay, the teams can unload players to make room, right
• 12:13
  Speaker 3: but right now, currently Brooklyn's got a ton of money
• 12:16
  Speaker 3: they can spend.
• 12:17
  Speaker 4: Okay, yeah, for sure.
• 12:18
  Speaker 3: Now the Nuggets, I don't know if you guys saw
• 12:21
  Speaker 3: some of these rumors over the weekend. Mark Stein reports
• 12:24
  Speaker 3: that of the Nuggets players, Aaron Gordon is drawing the
• 12:28
  Speaker 3: most attention sure out there Aaron Gordon, so I said,
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: is Aaron Gordon even tradable given the health history? According
• 12:38
  Speaker 3: to Mark Stein, he is very much so. I'm also
• 12:40
  Speaker 3: reading that Dallas has interest in Christian Brown. You're gonna
• 12:45
  Speaker 3: read a bunch of stories like this. I don't know
• 12:47
  Speaker 3: how many of these are factors.
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: What was with Mark Cuban, who has no affiliation anymore
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: with the Mavericks, just tweeting a YouTube highlight clip of
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: Jamal over the weekend?
• 12:55
  Speaker 4: What was that about? He did?
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah, with no caption, no nothing. Let me show you
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: so the cubes.
• 13:03
  Speaker 4: Yes, I mean, you know it's it's a trophy fish.
• 13:09
  Speaker 4: I guess. I don't know.
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: He just tweeted out it was Jamal Murray highlights from
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: the NBA Finals, Okay, Yeah, and then everybody's like, what's
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: this about? And just a reminder, I have absolutely zero
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: to do with MAVs basketball nothing, Nana.
• 13:28
  Speaker 3: Is this some sort of hey, we're we're in the
• 13:31
  Speaker 3: Jamal Murray sweepstakes?
• 13:33
  Speaker 4: That's what I'm wondering. I have no idea. I mean,
• 13:37
  Speaker 4: I couldn't even fashion a guess on that.
• 13:39
  Speaker 5: You know what the Mark Stein article, though, Can I
• 13:42
  Speaker 5: back up for just one second, please? I get that
• 13:46
  Speaker 5: he may be quote drawing the most interest. I've got
• 13:49
  Speaker 5: the most interest in him. I want him. I don't
• 13:53
  Speaker 5: want to get healthy, That's exactly. I don't want to
• 13:57
  Speaker 5: not have him, but I need him to be a
• 14:00
  Speaker 5: healthy cat. He needs to be a healthy dude.
• 14:03
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 14:04
  Speaker 5: I mean, seventy seven games with the course of two years,
• 14:07
  Speaker 5: and it's not his fault. I was just having this
• 14:08
  Speaker 5: conversation with somebody the other day on the golf course.
• 14:12
  Speaker 5: How I mean, you love him, He loves you, everybody
• 14:15
  Speaker 5: loves everybody.
• 14:16
  Speaker 4: It's all good. But if he can't be on the floor.
• 14:20
  Speaker 5: As an organization, you have to maybe make some difficult decisions,
• 14:24
  Speaker 5: and that sucks.
• 14:25
  Speaker 3: We're in that silly season where people jumped to trade conclusions.
• 14:29
  Speaker 3: So Darren Fox came up empty obviously in the finals
• 14:32
  Speaker 3: for San Antonio.
• 14:33
  Speaker 4: Right when they list all the reasons.
• 14:36
  Speaker 3: Why the Spurs gave that series away, he's going to
• 14:40
  Speaker 3: be at the top of the list, the top sure,
• 14:42
  Speaker 3: because he just did some things and didn't produce. Darren
• 14:44
  Speaker 3: Fox is entering a new contract. He's gonna be the
• 14:48
  Speaker 3: highest paid player in San Antonio.
• 14:50
  Speaker 4: By a lot. He's gonna make.
• 14:51
  Speaker 3: Close to sixty million dollars a year, and they're talking
• 14:56
  Speaker 3: about they got to unload them and let him go.
• 14:58
  Speaker 3: Would you have any interest in a deron Fox? And
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: that I mean it would never happen here, just so
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: you know, it just couldn't happen. But would you have
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: any interest in taking him off San Antonio's hands and
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: seeing if you can rehabilitate him in You'd have to
• 15:12
  Speaker 3: get to that ultimate moment again.
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: Vic, I'm not a stock market guy, but I do
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: know the concept of buy low, sell high. His stock
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: will never be lower than it is right now.
• 15:26
  Speaker 4: And his price tag will never be higher than it
• 15:28
  Speaker 4: is right now.
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: But if you're talking about a trade, it would be
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: one of those. You could get a lot of assets
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: with that in a trade at this point, with how
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: he played in the finals and how low that stock is,
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: you could get if you're looking to recoup some assets. Again,
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: that's the way you could do it.
• 15:45
  Speaker 4: You have to take on that salary. That'd be dumb.
• 15:48
  Speaker 3: What do you mean, That'd be the dumbest move ever?
• 15:51
  Speaker 3: Why would you take on Darren Fox's salary here in Denver?
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: I agree with you I agree. If you're looking to
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: acquire assets, though, then you could do it that way.
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: But by the way, you're the one who asked the question.
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: I'm asking the question about what does he look like
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: on the open market? Would you trade Jamal Murray for
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: Darren Fox? No, well, no, that's not that's the whole
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: straight up and there's no straight up. If you're looking
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: to acquire assets out of that, then that's what I'm saying,
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: that's what you'd be in it for. It's like I
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: get a player whose stock is low. He's still a
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: decent player, but a stock is low, and you could
• 16:22
  Speaker 2: get stuff in return.
• 16:23
  Speaker 4: I think Jamal Murray's better than Daron Fox. He is better.
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: That's the point though, that's where you get stuff in
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: return for it. So I you know, there's another question
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: about this that don't want to get to in just
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: a second. Uh. As we're out here live it's Sanctuary
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: three oh three five, four oh nine two five back
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: after this out here at Sanctuary for the National Jewish
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: Health Tournament, as we are every single year. I have
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: a question because we're just bringing up, you know, closest
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: to championships between all these teams around here and I said, well,
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: maybe this is the first time in over a decade
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: that the Broncos are in a top two discussion, one
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: texture says he thinks the Broncos are above the Apps.
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: What do you think as far as all the teams
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: in town closest to winning a title?
• 17:04
  Speaker 4: I disagree. I do too.
• 17:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah, No, it's just not possible there because I mean
• 17:08
  Speaker 3: the schedule, first of all, is tougher than it was
• 17:10
  Speaker 3: last year.
• 17:11
  Speaker 4: Well, it is possible. Everything's possible, everything's on the table.
• 17:15
  Speaker 3: You just I mean, when you look back at the
• 17:18
  Speaker 3: way the Stanley Cup and the NBA Finals all of
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: it unfolded, how many people had those particular teams in
• 17:25
  Speaker 3: their particular seats, right, things, crazy things happen.
• 17:29
  Speaker 5: I think a lot of people had Carolina going to
• 17:32
  Speaker 5: the Stanley Cup final. I'm sure some people had Vegas
• 17:38
  Speaker 5: not March, but think about it. I mean, Vegas was
• 17:40
  Speaker 5: a thirty nine win team.
• 17:42
  Speaker 4: Bro how many people at the begin Connor McDavid called.
• 17:46
  Speaker 5: It, He said, the Pacific Division is a pillow fight.
• 17:50
  Speaker 5: That's all it was all year long. Eight games left
• 17:53
  Speaker 5: in the regular season, they fire Cassidy, who won a
• 17:56
  Speaker 5: Stanley Cup with him just three years ago, and they
• 17:59
  Speaker 5: bring in Towarderella and they catch lightning in a bottle man.
• 18:02
  Speaker 5: They went seven and one to win the division, and
• 18:04
  Speaker 5: I guess the rest is history. And then I showed
• 18:06
  Speaker 5: you the freaking graphic for Carter Hart's ascension in the postseason.
• 18:10
  Speaker 4: He was never better than against hang On.
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: Though in reality, the team that advanced the farthest was
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: the Broncos. I know both them and the Avs were
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: in the their respective conference finals, but the Broncos had
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: a chance to win at the end of their expectations.
• 18:26
  Speaker 3: Yeah, nobody expected the Broncos to be the AFC title
• 18:29
  Speaker 3: game last year. If the Abs in Vegas were one game,
• 18:33
  Speaker 3: then the Ads had as had just as good a
• 18:34
  Speaker 3: chance to win. It was an empty nutter that sealed
• 18:36
  Speaker 3: the deal for understood. But I'm just saying overall, yeah,
• 18:39
  Speaker 3: I mean, I gotcha.
• 18:40
  Speaker 4: They were.
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: They were the closest to winning a title out of
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: all the teams this year. Somehow, some way, it just
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: as they were built the blow of not having the
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: quarterback in it.
• 18:50
  Speaker 5: You absolutely you could make an argument and convince me
• 18:55
  Speaker 5: that the Broncos are the closest. I just personally don't
• 18:59
  Speaker 5: think that way. And I don't feel that way.
• 19:01
  Speaker 4: I don't either.
• 19:02
  Speaker 5: If you want to argue it to me and lay
• 19:03
  Speaker 5: out your argument, maybe you can get me to come around.
• 19:05
  Speaker 5: But right now you can't do it because, honestly, Vic,
• 19:09
  Speaker 5: those first six games are a camera for the Denver Broncos.
• 19:13
  Speaker 3: I do have some valuable reporting to offer to the
• 19:15
  Speaker 3: show right now. Okay, I have eyes and not my eyes,
• 19:20
  Speaker 3: but I've got reliable eyes that report.
• 19:22
  Speaker 4: To me that bow Nicks looks great, his ankles look great. Good.
• 19:26
  Speaker 4: My nephew, my seven year old nephew went too the
• 19:28
  Speaker 4: bow Knicks football game. Oh okay, good.
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: I was just hanging out with Marcus Washington. Yeah, he
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: was showing me pictures that.
• 19:33
  Speaker 3: Took a picture next to bow and took a good look.
• 19:36
  Speaker 3: Good look at his ankles, and the ankles look fine.
• 19:38
  Speaker 3: No knkles, good, ankles good.
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: The difference, and let's mess out the difference. I think
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: in why it's easier to believe in in the Avs
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: part of this than the Broncos is that the Abs
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: were the best team in the league until the Vegas series.
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: But what about from trust start to finish?
• 19:57
  Speaker 4: You brought up that trust factor. Can you trust them?
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: Trust that I trust them to be in it for sure.
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: Like here's here's I guess what I'm saying. There's a
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: world I think that exists where the Broncos missed the playoffs.
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: I don't think that's likely, but I do think that
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: it's possible that world doesn't exist. For the Avalanche, it
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: doesn't exist. They will make the playoffs. You can quibble about,
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: like maybe they're a little bit worse than last year
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: or whatever, but they are making the playoffs. The Broncos,
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: if they get hit with a resurgent Patrick Mahomes and
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: revitalized Chiefs team, along with the Chargers playing well, along
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: with maybe a couple of injuries, along with some of
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: those one score games that all went in your favor,
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: they go the other way next year. There's a whole
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: bunch of.
• 20:41
  Speaker 4: Various all the games.
• 20:42
  Speaker 5: But let's say, let's say enough of that, those forty
• 20:46
  Speaker 5: percent of those not even half right. You know, It's
• 20:48
  Speaker 5: it's like, hey man, and you did a great job
• 20:51
  Speaker 5: to win those one score games, the sign of a
• 20:53
  Speaker 5: good team. But at the same time, Sean Payton, he
• 20:56
  Speaker 5: recognized that it was pretty much a freaking anomalaly.
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: Just just to clarify, I don't think the Broncos are
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: missing the playoffs next year. I'm just saying there's a possibility.
• 21:03
  Speaker 3: Okay, I want to take those three sports and I
• 21:06
  Speaker 3: want to look at the finals of all three sports. Okay,
• 21:09
  Speaker 3: Carolina Vegas in the NHL Stanley Cup Finals. Yeah, Vegas
• 21:13
  Speaker 3: surprised the way the season ended, the way they got there.
• 21:16
  Speaker 3: But you mentioned it, Carolina was expected Nix and san Antonio.
• 21:19
  Speaker 3: San Antonio came out of nowhere, right, thirty four win
• 21:23
  Speaker 3: team the year before, nobody expected. The last time playoffs
• 21:26
  Speaker 3: was twenty nineteen. Nobody expected them to be in the finals,
• 21:29
  Speaker 3: especially with Oksee and Denver in the conference. Nobody did.
• 21:32
  Speaker 3: They got there, but the Knicks. The Knicks were knocking
• 21:34
  Speaker 3: on the door for a couple of years. They got there.
• 21:36
  Speaker 3: But in my estimation, the one that surprised everybody, nobody
• 21:42
  Speaker 3: thought that the Patriots and Seahawks were gonna meet in
• 21:46
  Speaker 3: the Super Bowl.
• 21:46
  Speaker 4: That is correct. That one is, let's be honest, the
• 21:50
  Speaker 4: most surprising of all of them.
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, thousand, Yes, Well, I'll tell you this, that
• 21:56
  Speaker 2: is surprising. You know what's my maybe not that the
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: Hurricanes and the Knicks won the title. Both of them
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: I believe went sixteen and three, didn't they Let me
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: think about this, Carolina swept their first two rounds.
• 22:16
  Speaker 4: You're exactly right.
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: The Knicks lost the two of the first three games
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: and didn't lose again until one game in the finals. Yeah,
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: they went sixteen and three. Two teams.
• 22:26
  Speaker 5: You know, when the thevs went sixteen and four. In
• 22:28
  Speaker 5: the following year, the Nuggets went sixteen and four. I thought,
• 22:31
  Speaker 5: that's that's remarkable. Now a couple of years later, you've
• 22:36
  Speaker 5: got two teams who have bested that, the two teams
• 22:38
  Speaker 5: that won the title when he combined thirty two and
• 22:41
  Speaker 5: six on the way to win it insane.
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: Well, you, but that's crazy.
• 22:45
  Speaker 5: To back up to your point, you tell me who's
• 22:47
  Speaker 5: gonna miss the postseason this year in the NFL? All right,
• 22:49
  Speaker 5: out of the AFC if the Broncos are in, Yeah,
• 22:53
  Speaker 5: New England, keep going, yeah, Jacksonville.
• 22:59
  Speaker 4: I don't.
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: Oh, well, because we're talking about division win somebody's winning
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: that division.
• 23:03
  Speaker 4: Because we're talking.
• 23:03
  Speaker 5: About division winners, so it's gonna be it's gonna be
• 23:05
  Speaker 5: replaced with somebody. So forget the division winners, okay, because
• 23:09
  Speaker 5: if they don't repeat as division winners, then it's gonna
• 23:12
  Speaker 5: they're gonna be replaced with somebody else.
• 23:14
  Speaker 3: How about these wild cards though, Houston, I don't know. Buffalo,
• 23:20
  Speaker 3: Buffalo should not miss, but you never. If they lose
• 23:22
  Speaker 3: Josh Allen, they'll miss. It's a lot of it's quarterback dependent.
• 23:25
  Speaker 4: And the Los Angeles Chargers.
• 23:28
  Speaker 2: Well, then add on top of that, Cincinnati, then Baltimore.
• 23:31
  Speaker 4: But that's what I'm saying.
• 23:33
  Speaker 5: Cincinnati, they're back, Kansas City if you know they they are,
• 23:36
  Speaker 5: Baltimore win the division in Pittsburgh. You know Pittsburgh won't
• 23:40
  Speaker 5: make it period. So I'm just thinking you're getting one
• 23:42
  Speaker 5: team in that's it. I mean, okay, I mean maybe
• 23:46
  Speaker 5: Houston's the anomaly there, but they they're gonna win their
• 23:49
  Speaker 5: you know, either the win the division or Jackson.
• 23:51
  Speaker 4: I mean, it's like, uh, I mean, they'll talk about
• 23:54
  Speaker 4: the Jags went in there.
• 23:55
  Speaker 5: It's just like somebody's gonna replace them. You've gotta stay frosty, man,
• 24:00
  Speaker 5: You've got to stay on top of this thing. Kansas
• 24:02
  Speaker 5: City back there scares the snot out of me.
• 24:05
  Speaker 3: Okay, guys, I came up with something else now to
• 24:07
  Speaker 3: add to our list of least thing you'd want to do.
• 24:12
  Speaker 3: Would you rather take a slap shot to the mouth.
• 24:16
  Speaker 3: We've saw we saw a couple of those during the
• 24:18
  Speaker 3: ten Plass Okay, would you rather take a one hundred
• 24:21
  Speaker 3: and four mile an hour fastball from miss off the dome?
• 24:25
  Speaker 4: Or would you rather have a round of eating punches
• 24:28
  Speaker 4: from Justin Gai? Chief ass Okay? Which of those which
• 24:31
  Speaker 4: you sent me? The shot? Justin gay Chee?
• 24:35
  Speaker 3: If you missed it last night, UFC is the new
• 24:37
  Speaker 3: lightweight Champion of the World. Another upset performance, another upset win.
• 24:42
  Speaker 3: Everybody said, ah, he's got no chance against this guy.
• 24:45
  Speaker 4: Uh.
• 24:45
  Speaker 3: The guy himself said he's gonna you know, it's a
• 24:47
  Speaker 3: waste of time for him for him to be there,
• 24:49
  Speaker 3: that he's gonna win.
• 24:50
  Speaker 4: Iliot Topourio he.
• 24:52
  Speaker 3: Got his face bashed, bashed, he had to quit the fight.
• 24:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he's done that to multiple guys. Remember he did that?
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: Was it Max Holloway a few years back that he
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: did the same thing too. It's just like the guy
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: didn't get knocked out, but he was beaten so badly.
• 25:08
  Speaker 2: They're like, dude, we're stopping this, we can't do this anymore.
• 25:11
  Speaker 2: I think it was Max Holloway.
• 25:12
  Speaker 3: The look of Tepuria's face when he started the fight
• 25:16
  Speaker 3: versus when he ended it. Oh, but the thing is
• 25:20
  Speaker 3: justin ate a lot of punches too, I know. But
• 25:22
  Speaker 3: his face is fine.
• 25:24
  Speaker 4: He's just one of those guys. Man, He's so.
• 25:27
  Speaker 2: I said this about Rod Brendan Moore earlier to Jesse.
• 25:30
  Speaker 2: He's got a face that looks like you could punch
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: him a hundred times and it probably looks the same.
• 25:33
  Speaker 2: I don't know what it is about a face like that. Yeah,
• 25:36
  Speaker 2: Gaegie's got a little bit of that. Like I think,
• 25:38
  Speaker 2: like Moser, your face is impenetrable. I can come around
• 25:41
  Speaker 2: and punch it several times. It wouldn't alter the look
• 25:43
  Speaker 2: of your face.
• 25:45
  Speaker 4: Probably not.
• 25:47
  Speaker 5: I mean I've had my face cut on multiple times
• 25:50
  Speaker 5: down to the skull. I still look pretty good, don't I.
• 25:52
  Speaker 3: I mean, but the face, No, it's so leathery and
• 25:54
  Speaker 3: distorted as it is. There's not much you can do
• 25:57
  Speaker 3: to it correct. I mean, you're really not You're really
• 25:59
  Speaker 3: not making it worse.
• 26:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah, do I even approach saying this. I was gonna say,
• 26:06
  Speaker 2: if you can leave the political part out of it,
• 26:08
  Speaker 2: which nobody can do anymore, the spectacle of just having
• 26:13
  Speaker 2: a fight outside of the White House that was crazy
• 26:15
  Speaker 2: is a crazy thing.
• 26:16
  Speaker 4: It was crazy is a an absolute yeah. Yeah.
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: But then I saw the picture of that flyover before
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: the things that started, I'm like, it looks cool. I
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: know everybody's gonna dis like either you thought it was
• 26:30
  Speaker 2: cool or it's you disagree entirely with it. Yeah whatever, listen.
• 26:34
  Speaker 4: I didn't watch the rest of the fights.
• 26:35
  Speaker 3: I just saw highlights of the Gaigee one because I'm
• 26:38
  Speaker 3: a Geychee fan. He lives in Colorado. He's a big
• 26:41
  Speaker 3: golf fan. He does a lot of community things here.
• 26:43
  Speaker 3: I love the guy. I think he's an inspiration to
• 26:45
  Speaker 3: a lot of people in that sport because every time
• 26:47
  Speaker 3: he's out there, they think he's gonna get beat and
• 26:49
  Speaker 3: only does his win.
• 26:50
  Speaker 4: But he's But he's one of those guys.
• 26:52
  Speaker 2: It's either this fight is gonna end with me laying
• 26:55
  Speaker 2: on the mat or you're gonna but we aren't gonna
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: sit here and wrestle. Okay, dukes up and throw some swings.
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: It's why he's my favorite fighter to watch. It's just
• 27:05
  Speaker 2: it's literally, I whose face is going to take more of.
• 27:07
  Speaker 4: A beating by the end of this. You know, I've
• 27:09
  Speaker 4: met him one time in my life.
• 27:11
  Speaker 5: That was that golf tournament he actually was hosting out
• 27:15
  Speaker 5: an Arrowhead one time.
• 27:17
  Speaker 4: He couldn't be a nicer guy. He could not be
• 27:20
  Speaker 4: a nicer deree.
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: Dude, I don't get how those nice guys I don't
• 27:24
  Speaker 2: have it in them to like I'm going to ignore
• 27:26
  Speaker 2: how nice I am and literally try and kill you
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: for like thirty minutes.
• 27:31
  Speaker 3: Carl Mecklelberg was that way as a football player. John
• 27:34
  Speaker 3: Lynch was that way as a safety.
• 27:35
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 27:36
  Speaker 5: Carl Mecklelburg is like such a nice person here and then,
• 27:40
  Speaker 5: and he's so calm on the you know, then you
• 27:43
  Speaker 5: put him on a football field and he would absolutely
• 27:45
  Speaker 5: destroy people.
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: How he long was like that too.
• 27:47
  Speaker 4: Yeah, you know.
• 27:48
  Speaker 3: Jesse Trihio in person is calm, just sort of laid.
• 27:53
  Speaker 4: Back past me.
• 27:54
  Speaker 3: But you put a plate of food in front of him,
• 27:56
  Speaker 3: and he's a wild boy. I seen him eat the plate.
• 27:59
  Speaker 4: Yes, Homer earns him.
• 28:01
  Speaker 3: Just yeah, you'll see here a moment because breakfast is
• 28:05
  Speaker 3: now open.
• 28:07
  Speaker 4: And you know what we're doing.
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: Well, it's the first time I've ever seen a police
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: officer walking around here before Jess. It's just to stop
• 28:14
  Speaker 2: Jesse from going for thirds and fourths three oh three, five,
• 28:18
  Speaker 2: four nine two five, Still a lot more to get
• 28:20
  Speaker 2: to here. Oh, by the way, coming away next, Oh,
• 28:23
  Speaker 2: by the way, stories around sports in the world, do
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: we feel like you should be aware of? And how
• 28:28
  Speaker 2: about the Rocks putting up twenty three yesterday on the
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: A's as everybody was in on the action. Well, the
• 28:35
  Speaker 2: record seven RBIs with a two homers and a grand
• 28:39
  Speaker 2: Slam mixed and Hunter Goodman had a coup ho But
• 28:41
  Speaker 2: if you guys missed it the funniest one because I've
• 28:45
  Speaker 2: heard Drew Goodman call this a hundred times and it
• 28:49
  Speaker 2: has always been negative whenever he said this, but in
• 28:53
  Speaker 2: this case it was positive.
• 28:54
  Speaker 3: Go ahead now, like, okay, oh boy, this is another
• 28:58
  Speaker 3: one for TJ.
• 29:00
  Speaker 4: That's a twenty third ride and TJ with his ninth
• 29:04
  Speaker 4: of the year. Nobody's gonna ask at the end of
• 29:07
  Speaker 4: the year. They all count.
• 29:10
  Speaker 2: So that was in reference to ninth inning. The A's
• 29:13
  Speaker 2: are just trying to get through the rest of the game,
• 29:15
  Speaker 2: so they throw out the position player to try and
• 29:17
  Speaker 2: close things out, and he gives up a bomb. But
• 29:19
  Speaker 2: I've heard that, oh boy, in regards to a Rockies
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: pitcher getting hammered for one, four hundred and seventy feet
• 29:25
  Speaker 2: so many times I haven't heard it the opposite one, okay,
• 29:28
  Speaker 2: or you're almost pitying the other team.
• 29:31
  Speaker 3: Weird seeing those that game in that stadium, isn't it.
• 29:34
  Speaker 4: It's got stadium. Yeah, it's just got a weird Yeah.
• 29:38
  Speaker 4: Every time I'm like this is feels like spring training.
• 29:41
  Speaker 4: It feels exactly like spring training. It's an exhibition. It
• 29:43
  Speaker 4: feels like that. Oh, by the way, hold on real
• 29:46
  Speaker 4: real quick.
• 29:47
  Speaker 5: Hunter Goodman said, basically, look, all you've got to really
• 29:51
  Speaker 5: do is put the bat on the ball. Here, it
• 29:52
  Speaker 5: was one hundred and one degrees. The elevation is up.
• 29:57
  Speaker 5: You put the bat on that. There's there's no wind
• 29:59
  Speaker 5: resistance to put the battle the ball. It flies.
• 30:01
  Speaker 2: I saw Hunter Goodbin swings. He was not swinging for contact.
• 30:04
  Speaker 5: Agreed, but that's what he said. Now tell me if
• 30:06
  Speaker 5: I'm wrong. I think the new stadium is going to
• 30:09
  Speaker 5: be totally enclosed, is it not it?
• 30:12
  Speaker 2: Yes, I think it'll have the capability of being fully closed. Okay,
• 30:18
  Speaker 2: if there's just sorry, one thing real quick. I know
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: they're still like the worst team in baseball, but again,
• 30:25
  Speaker 2: in a year where you knew you weren't gonna be good.
• 30:27
  Speaker 2: You're just looking for some positives. Have you seen what
• 30:30
  Speaker 2: some of the young guys are doing for this team?
• 30:31
  Speaker 2: TJ Runfield still hitting two eighty, Troy Johnston three p seventeen.
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: Kyle Carross, by the way, with a miserable start of
• 30:38
  Speaker 2: the year, he's hitting like three point thirty this month.
• 30:42
  Speaker 2: Young guys curtaining around.
• 30:44
  Speaker 3: Oh, by the way, we talk a lot about what
• 30:46
  Speaker 3: could have been in sports, and Moser likes to bring
• 30:50
  Speaker 3: up Miko Ranton in and went down here with the Avs.
• 30:53
  Speaker 3: Somebody just tweeted, what's Mico Ranton and thinking right now? Yeah,
• 30:59
  Speaker 3: because remember he demanded out of Carolina as soon as
• 31:02
  Speaker 3: he got there.
• 31:03
  Speaker 4: Why did he?
• 31:04
  Speaker 5: Do?
• 31:05
  Speaker 4: You know the story?
• 31:05
  Speaker 5: I think there were a lot of things that went
• 31:07
  Speaker 5: into it. I don't think you wanted to play in
• 31:10
  Speaker 5: that city. I don't know why Carolina, Like you know
• 31:14
  Speaker 5: guys have over the years. I don't want to play
• 31:16
  Speaker 5: in Carolina. And then you know, the city is pretty
• 31:19
  Speaker 5: damn good. It's a beautiful area. I is it the ownership,
• 31:23
  Speaker 5: I don't know they put it all together, dude. Also
• 31:25
  Speaker 5: what they get for Miko. Oh, by the way, the
• 31:28
  Speaker 5: Toronto Maple Leafs had a deal in place with the
• 31:31
  Speaker 5: Carolina Hurricanes to acquire Miko Ranton and because he wanted
• 31:35
  Speaker 5: out of Carolina and they were willing to send Mitch
• 31:38
  Speaker 5: Marner to the Carolina Hurricanes. And he said no. Mitch
• 31:43
  Speaker 5: said no. Mitch said no, he had he had a
• 31:48
  Speaker 5: no trade. He said no, went through one more miserable
• 31:51
  Speaker 5: year with with the Maple Leafs and obviously went to
• 31:54
  Speaker 5: Vegas now so he could have been a Hurricane two.
• 31:59
  Speaker 5: I think Carolina, I think they did pretty good.
• 32:03
  Speaker 2: We know that college athletics has a lot of money.
• 32:07
  Speaker 2: Did you guys see what the Florida Gators are going
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: to do to their stadium? No, so renovation project, So
• 32:13
  Speaker 2: not building a new one. They're gonna renovate their stadium.
• 32:16
  Speaker 2: How much do you think it will cost.
• 32:17
  Speaker 3: A renovation project for a stadium? What two hundred and fifty.
• 32:21
  Speaker 2: Million, one point four or five billion dollars? Why not
• 32:24
  Speaker 2: just build a whole new stadium?
• 32:26
  Speaker 5: And I need why can't you build a stadium for
• 32:28
  Speaker 5: a billion dollars anymore?
• 32:30
  Speaker 4: The hell are we doing? Billion doesn't get you much anymore?
• 32:33
  Speaker 5: So Bill, Yeah, a billion just don't get you what
• 32:35
  Speaker 5: it used to get Yeah, I understand, But dude, we're
• 32:39
  Speaker 5: talking to Bill, not we're talking with a b bro.
• 32:41
  Speaker 4: Remember when that billy was a lot of money.
• 32:44
  Speaker 2: Somebody asked a question, It's a legitimate question. Can someone
• 32:49
  Speaker 2: explain how a college football stadium renovation costs more than
• 32:52
  Speaker 2: the Dallas Cowboys built Jerry World from scratch?
• 32:54
  Speaker 4: I don't understand it either. I can't. I can't blame
• 32:58
  Speaker 4: in that place idea dal Jones nasdak no idea.
• 33:03
  Speaker 2: I want to know what they're doing to that place.
• 33:06
  Speaker 5: Live gators. Yeah, they're gonna have a pond. They're gonna
• 33:10
  Speaker 5: have a pond at the end zone full of live gators.
• 33:12
  Speaker 2: Oh, by the way, I don't think you heard this
• 33:13
  Speaker 2: because you were talking to uh, to Rudy. There's a
• 33:17
  Speaker 2: sheriff here for some reason. He's just walking around the
• 33:19
  Speaker 2: course and we didn't know what he's here for him.
• 33:21
  Speaker 2: We said, hey, maybe he's here to stop Jesse from
• 33:23
  Speaker 2: getting multiple plates.
• 33:24
  Speaker 4: He's on number one.
• 33:26
  Speaker 2: Jesse, turn your mic on real quick as swallow your food.
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: What did you say to you, Well, I came back
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: from getting food and he like clearly goes that's your
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: first plick.
• 33:36
  Speaker 4: Correct, listen to the show. I'm like you either res
• 33:39
  Speaker 4: listened to the show or Brett told Brett told him
• 33:41
  Speaker 4: to say it.
• 33:42
  Speaker 2: But I know, I said, are you stopping our boy
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: from getting multiple plates? I didn't say who.
• 33:46
  Speaker 4: I just pointed at that at the clubhouse. You just
• 33:49
  Speaker 4: look suspicious. Yeah you did. That's funny.
• 33:51
  Speaker 3: Oh, by the way, if you haven't seen this already,
• 33:54
  Speaker 3: did you realize that Luka Doncic and Jalen Brunson were
• 33:58
  Speaker 3: both drafted in this same year by the same team,
• 34:02
  Speaker 3: and that team let go of both of them, well,
• 34:04
  Speaker 3: one left one. Luca was traded away, and Jalen Brunson decided, yeah,
• 34:09
  Speaker 3: I'm you know, I'm gonna go sign with the Knicks,
• 34:11
  Speaker 3: and Dallas let him go. Dallas let two guys go
• 34:15
  Speaker 3: that in return. In return, they got one first rounder
• 34:20
  Speaker 3: in twenty nine games of Anthony Davis.
• 34:23
  Speaker 4: Unbelievable. Think about that for a second.
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: When they let Jalen Brunson go, it was like that
• 34:29
  Speaker 2: guy was really good.
• 34:30
  Speaker 4: No, yeah, they good. They let him walk.
• 34:33
  Speaker 3: They figured, you know what, there's not enough room for
• 34:35
  Speaker 3: both he and Luca.
• 34:37
  Speaker 2: Well that's the first thing I thought was, you know
• 34:40
  Speaker 2: what's a bummer for him? Jalen Brunson feels like a
• 34:42
  Speaker 2: really good number two. Turns out he's perfectly fine as
• 34:45
  Speaker 2: at number one two.
• 34:46
  Speaker 5: Oh, by the way, coach Prime has weighed in on
• 34:49
  Speaker 5: the Texas Tech situation. Have you seen that now quote
• 34:53
  Speaker 5: somebody's gambling on a sport they're playing.
• 34:55
  Speaker 4: You don't think something's wrong with that? Just say it
• 34:58
  Speaker 4: to yourself.
• 34:58
  Speaker 5: The guy on my team is gambled on the sport
• 35:00
  Speaker 5: in the competition, and we're about to go out there
• 35:03
  Speaker 5: and have whatever. Something's wrong with It's ridiculous. Yeah, it's ridiculous.
• 35:08
  Speaker 3: And that's why you know they're having these little ensembles
• 35:11
  Speaker 3: of all the UH Texas Tech regents and the board
• 35:14
  Speaker 3: and oh, hey, we're gonna figure this out. It's not us,
• 35:17
  Speaker 3: it's it's college football. They're blaming college football for this
• 35:20
  Speaker 3: kid gambling on games. And I love how they.
• 35:23
  Speaker 4: Call him kid.
• 35:23
  Speaker 3: He's twenty two years old. You don't think he knows
• 35:25
  Speaker 3: what he's doing. Yeah, again, you can go down this
• 35:29
  Speaker 3: road college football. That's fine. But the next time somebody
• 35:32
  Speaker 3: gets popped for gambling, guess what that person's gonna do.
• 35:35
  Speaker 4: Oh it's an addiction.
• 35:36
  Speaker 3: I'm sorry, you can't do anything to me, I'm addicted,
• 35:39
  Speaker 3: just like Jesse in this breakfast.
• 35:41
  Speaker 4: It's an addiction.
• 35:42
  Speaker 3: It is go back as many times as you want, Jess,
• 35:45
  Speaker 3: it's an addiction.
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: I use the French toast to bagel, eggs, bacon, potatoes.
• 35:50
  Speaker 4: It's a disservice to addictions, it really is. It's a joke.
• 35:56
  Speaker 4: We all know it.
• 35:57
  Speaker 2: A metric ton of maple syrup. Did you guys see
• 36:02
  Speaker 2: this about forty five minutes ago from Zack Stevens a
• 36:05
  Speaker 2: d NVR mose you're a UFL uniform guy, what do
• 36:09
  Speaker 2: you think of the BattleHawks uniforms?
• 36:11
  Speaker 4: The hell?
• 36:12
  Speaker 5: I don't know what they look like, okay, but I
• 36:14
  Speaker 5: know they're in Saint Louis. The UFL Offensive Player of
• 36:17
  Speaker 5: the Year, Keem Butler has signed with the Broncos onto
• 36:20
  Speaker 5: training camp. Wide receiver six foot five two and forty
• 36:24
  Speaker 5: two pounds.
• 36:25
  Speaker 4: That's a big dude. That's a Sean Peyton kind of dude.
• 36:28
  Speaker 2: Who's a fourth round pick in twenty nineteen by the Cardinals.
• 36:32
  Speaker 2: But if you're wondering is there going to be any
• 36:35
  Speaker 2: more six foot five wide receivers at camp, You're in
• 36:38
  Speaker 2: luck there will be, and I'm sure he won't be
• 36:41
  Speaker 2: the last one. But he was the UFL Offensive Player
• 36:44
  Speaker 2: of the Year, if that means anything to you.
• 36:46
  Speaker 5: Oh, by the way, coming back from ABS press conference
• 36:51
  Speaker 5: last week, went by the new Broncos facility. It is unbelievable.
• 36:55
  Speaker 5: It is unreal. I told you it may be one
• 36:58
  Speaker 5: of the most beautiful buildings gie this stone they used
• 37:00
  Speaker 5: it like something out of the Amalfi Coast's. It's one
• 37:02
  Speaker 5: of the most beautiful buildings in Colorado.
• 37:04
  Speaker 4: It is incredible. Wow. Yeah, didn'gree with that.
• 37:09
  Speaker 3: And it's supposed to happen like in the next two
• 37:12
  Speaker 3: or three weeks.
• 37:13
  Speaker 4: It's got that quad in the middle of it. It's
• 37:15
  Speaker 4: like the pentagongue. It's freaking awesome.
• 37:18
  Speaker 2: Can we go back to the idea that the two
• 37:20
  Speaker 2: teams just went sixteen and three to win a championship?
• 37:23
  Speaker 2: By the way, both the Knicks and Carolina Hurricanes sixteen
• 37:27
  Speaker 2: and three.
• 37:28
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's dominant, so the the way you know, you
• 37:32
  Speaker 3: say that, But along the way, if you're a Knicks
• 37:34
  Speaker 3: fan or a Knicks player, you could say, yeah, we dominated,
• 37:37
  Speaker 3: But how many of those games were so close? I
• 37:40
  Speaker 3: mean the tip in by a nanobi that every game
• 37:43
  Speaker 3: in this damn Finals they had to Riley to win
• 37:45
  Speaker 3: in the fourth quarter. That wasn't easy.
• 37:48
  Speaker 2: So the Eastern Conference, by the way, is won two
• 37:50
  Speaker 2: of the last three NBA championships and the Western Conference
• 37:54
  Speaker 2: is seen as the one that is the dominant force.
• 37:56
  Speaker 3: It's still deeper top to bottom, no doubt.
• 38:00
  Speaker 2: It's sixteen and three on the run there, two in
• 38:03
  Speaker 2: the last three years. Are we miscalculating that or could
• 38:09
  Speaker 2: you say that the pathway to the finals for being
• 38:12
  Speaker 2: a good team in the East is way easier.
• 38:14
  Speaker 4: Yeah?
• 38:14
  Speaker 2: That helps.
• 38:15
  Speaker 3: Yes, I think the Spurs had to give more blood
• 38:18
  Speaker 3: on the way to the finals.
• 38:20
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 38:21
  Speaker 3: I think it's a tougher trek to get there and
• 38:23
  Speaker 3: it takes something out of you. And I think it
• 38:25
  Speaker 3: also contributes to why the Knicks looked in better shape.
• 38:30
  Speaker 2: I've always wondered, if I'm a star player in the
• 38:32
  Speaker 2: NBA and I'm leaving my team, entering free agency, whatever,
• 38:37
  Speaker 2: wouldn't it be the wise decision to go to the
• 38:39
  Speaker 2: East somewhere? Well, wouldn't it be smart? I would played
• 38:43
  Speaker 2: for the Bucks, Go play for the Knicks, go play
• 38:44
  Speaker 2: for the Heat, go play you.
• 38:46
  Speaker 5: Know, as a West guy, I would encourage it. Yeah,
• 38:49
  Speaker 5: no kidding, Please go East. I always say that in
• 38:52
  Speaker 5: hockey and basketball, go East, Man, go East.
• 38:56
  Speaker 2: Like I got a wonder. I know all the different
• 38:59
  Speaker 2: reasons why Lebron went to the Lakers, and look, he
• 39:01
  Speaker 2: did get one title in the bubble whatever, he would
• 39:05
  Speaker 2: have had more shots if he stayed in the East, right.
• 39:08
  Speaker 3: I just think that the East versus West thing, it's
• 39:12
  Speaker 3: gonna go in cycles top to bottom.
• 39:14
  Speaker 4: If you're in the West, it's tougher to ascend, it is.
• 39:18
  Speaker 4: It is a good luck.
• 39:20
  Speaker 3: If you're in the East, it's easier to ascend, and
• 39:23
  Speaker 3: once you're there, you never know anything.
• 39:24
  Speaker 5: Is that why Tampa was able to win back to
• 39:26
  Speaker 5: Beck Cups in the Florida Panthers were able to wait
• 39:28
  Speaker 5: back to be Cups?
• 39:29
  Speaker 4: Fact? I mean because your path, your path to the.
• 39:31
  Speaker 5: Glory, you want to call it easier or just less constricted.
• 39:35
  Speaker 4: Oh.
• 39:35
  Speaker 3: Also with the Knicks, the curse of the NBA Cup
• 39:38
  Speaker 3: is officially over. An NBA Cup champion is now an
• 39:43
  Speaker 3: NBA champion.
• 39:44
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah, so they gonna put the banner.
• 39:47
  Speaker 5: Up there, raise the banner of them every time I'm
• 39:50
  Speaker 5: in LA, every single time I'm in La. And when
• 39:53
  Speaker 5: you look at the end of the Arena and you
• 39:56
  Speaker 5: see all the championship banners and all the retired jury
• 40:00
  Speaker 5: and all the everything, and then they've got this one
• 40:02
  Speaker 5: odd ball NBA Cup and I'm like, that's what the
• 40:07
  Speaker 5: guy who's hoisting it up there, he's like, God, this
• 40:09
  Speaker 5: is freaking embarrassing and he's pulling it. I mean, it
• 40:12
  Speaker 5: just it looks it looks so out of place, and
• 40:14
  Speaker 5: it doesn't look real.
• 40:16
  Speaker 4: It's just dumb.
• 40:16
  Speaker 2: When's the last time the Eastern Conference was better than
• 40:18
  Speaker 2: the West in the NBA?
• 40:20
  Speaker 4: Oh gosh, I mean when the Bulls are winning championships.
• 40:24
  Speaker 2: Nineties talking top to bottom, Yeah, yeah, that you would
• 40:26
  Speaker 2: say the Eastern Conference was the better count.
• 40:28
  Speaker 5: Hey, listen, when Shaq and Kobe got to l a man,
• 40:32
  Speaker 5: there's the Golden State, late nineties Spurs, Spurs.
• 40:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you'd have to go to the nineties, the nineties
• 40:37
  Speaker 3: of the last time you can make that claim, you know,
• 40:40
  Speaker 3: And I know the East right now they have the champion,
• 40:42
  Speaker 3: But you cannot tell me the Knicks would have that
• 40:44
  Speaker 3: same road if they had to do it in the West.
• 40:46
  Speaker 4: Just just just switch.
• 40:48
  Speaker 3: Them around, and the last thing will switch them around.
• 40:50
  Speaker 3: Put the Knicks in the West and tell me they
• 40:52
  Speaker 3: would have had that same run sixteen and three.
• 40:55
  Speaker 4: There's no way you put it.
• 40:57
  Speaker 5: You put a better Nuggets team in the East again,
• 41:01
  Speaker 5: you can make the same case.
• 41:03
  Speaker 4: There's no chance the East is easier than the West. Yeah.
• 41:06
