- 1:32Speaker 3: I'm good to be back on Wednesday night Sports Exchange.
- 1:35Speaker 2: I love it.
- 1:36Speaker 1: Ah Well, I got to lose updates before we get
- 1:38Speaker 1: to the topics at hand. News update, New York Jets
- 1:42Speaker 1: have hired Steve Wilks is their defensive coordinator. Steve Wilks
- 1:46Speaker 1: sent out last year looking for the right opportunity. Reunited,
- 1:50Speaker 1: he'll be working for Aaron Glenn viewership for the ANFC
- 1:53Speaker 1: championship game. In the fifty seven point four million what
- 1:56Speaker 1: do you expect to get? The Kansas City teaching, the
- 1:58Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills and the NFC contest threw forty four point
- 2:02Speaker 1: two million between the Washington commanders and they piled out
- 2:06Speaker 1: the Eagles. A couple of news updates. Nobody has to
- 2:09Speaker 1: comment unless they want to or would you say it later?
- 2:11Speaker 1: A lots of things to talk about tonight. That said, leading
- 2:15Speaker 1: topic despite Washington not making the Super Bowl, Jane Daniels
- 2:19Speaker 1: as the third rookie QB to win multiple playoffs. Road
- 2:23Speaker 1: contact all right, Pendrin, good accomplishment for Jayden.
- 2:28Speaker 2: I'm happy for JD JD did really good. Jenden Daniels
- 2:32Speaker 2: did really awesome in his rookie year. He read the defense.
- 2:35Speaker 2: He that's a hard well besides the Cowboys, that's a
- 2:38Speaker 2: hard division to compete in. And Giants they should get
- 2:43Speaker 2: their act together. The Eagles, they they fought hard, they
- 2:47Speaker 2: split it in the season. So I'm happy for Jenden Daniels.
- 2:53Speaker 4: Jami Yellois, well, listen, when he got drafted, I said,
- 2:57Speaker 4: oh no, we have to play him twice a year.
- 2:59Speaker 4: If you don't know, I'm a Giant, but that was
- 3:01Speaker 4: my first reaction was we got to play him twice
- 3:04Speaker 4: a year. Oh no, we got Jalen Hurts and in Philly.
- 3:08Speaker 4: Now he got Jada Daniels and Washington. The kid is special.
- 3:13Speaker 4: He's going to be really good. He had a phenomenal season.
- 3:17Speaker 4: He helped make the Redskins relevant. The Commander is relevant
- 3:21Speaker 4: and they were irrelevant for how long? The last time
- 3:23Speaker 4: they were irrelevant, they would notice the Redskins. So you know,
- 3:27Speaker 4: he he had a great year and there's more to
- 3:30Speaker 4: come from him. You know, it's gonna be a tough division.
- 3:33Speaker 4: The Giants have the work cut out for him. But
- 3:36Speaker 4: phenomenal playoffs. They weren't ready for Philly. You know, Philly
- 3:40Speaker 4: was angry after what happened the last time they played,
- 3:43Speaker 4: when Hurts got knocked out and they lost that game,
- 3:46Speaker 4: and they wanted to put a statement on them that,
- 3:49Speaker 4: you know, it's Philly's division and Phillies Conference, and they
- 3:52Speaker 4: did that. But that doesn't take away anything from what hurt.
- 3:56Speaker 4: What Daniels did all year and in the playoffs.
- 4:00Speaker 3: George, Hey, we were there, Scott and Candy and me
- 4:05Speaker 3: and the cast of seven hundred thousand when he was drafted.
- 4:09Speaker 3: All these quarterbacks were drafted, and you take a look
- 4:12Speaker 3: at all of them, but you can't go very far
- 4:14Speaker 3: from this fella as far as having the best year.
- 4:18Speaker 3: Let me tell you, you know, And like you said,
- 4:20Speaker 3: he went thirteen and five in the regular season and
- 4:23Speaker 3: two and one. Yeah, he was about five hundred two
- 4:26Speaker 3: and one in the playoffs, eight hundred and twenty two
- 4:29Speaker 3: yards passing in the playoffs, tossing another one hundred and
- 4:32Speaker 3: thirty five rushing.
- 4:33Speaker 5: Are you kidding me?
- 4:35Speaker 3: He led Washington and both passing yards and rushing yards.
- 4:39Speaker 3: The kid is special. The kid especial. I don't like
- 4:43Speaker 3: the idea of people going out there and saying he's
- 4:47Speaker 3: put him in the Hall of Fame already, come on,
- 4:49Speaker 3: Tellas and ladies. And yet there's people on these talking
- 4:52Speaker 3: shows as we know that he'll do that kind of
- 4:53Speaker 3: crazy stuff. But everything he's shown Scott and Guys and Candy,
- 4:58Speaker 3: he looks like the real deal for sure.
- 5:01Speaker 1: For sure, Night Activity, chant Room, petel Men, highlighter men
- 5:06Speaker 1: and Ralph Williams didn't have you in. They're glad, George.
- 5:11Speaker 3: Well, I just close off by saying, yeah, you know,
- 5:13Speaker 3: Jayden's done a great job. Of course, it was a
- 5:16Speaker 3: monumental task, just like you said, JB, you know, and
- 5:20Speaker 3: and Pennsman, we we really could not get we mean,
- 5:24Speaker 3: the alliance could not get on tracked when he was
- 5:26Speaker 3: hot on that on that miserable night in ford Field
- 5:30Speaker 3: and Washington cooked the Lions. They faced that kind of obstacle,
- 5:35Speaker 3: you know obviously last week when Philadelphia cooked them.
- 5:39Speaker 1: Don't worry, George, I was gonna let you not finish.
- 5:42Speaker 1: But we have to acknowledge those people to the right
- 5:44Speaker 1: of us as well. All right, all right, Candy.
- 5:48Speaker 5: So one of the things that you guys haven't brought
- 5:50Speaker 5: up is I think Jaden Daniels really benefited by being
- 5:55Speaker 5: drafted by the right team with the right coach. I
- 5:58Speaker 5: think that made a big different difference. I think dan
- 6:01Speaker 5: Quinn was the right guy for him, and I think,
- 6:05Speaker 5: you know, as you look at it, there are a
- 6:08Speaker 5: lot of other first round or not necessarily first round,
- 6:11Speaker 5: but first time quarterbacks that just don't make it. But
- 6:14Speaker 5: I think part of it is is knowing what his
- 6:17Speaker 5: strengths are and trying to work towards those and emphasizing
- 6:21Speaker 5: his strengths. And I think that's what the Washington commanders did,
- 6:25Speaker 5: So kudos to them, Kudos to Jayden Daniels because that's
- 6:29Speaker 5: that's a great feed.
- 6:31Speaker 1: They had a good offensive coordinator named Cliff Kingsberry, who,
- 6:35Speaker 1: by the way, decided not to go take the New
- 6:37Speaker 1: Orleans Saints job. And I'll stay in Washington another year
- 6:40Speaker 1: like what I'm doing, and we'll wait for the next
- 6:42Speaker 1: coaching site called to begin, which Mike McCarthy's going to
- 6:46Speaker 1: have to do because he's not getting that Saint job.
- 6:48Speaker 1: But that said, you're welcome very much. Well, so there
- 6:51Speaker 1: you have it. Topic number one. We will talk NBA,
- 6:55Speaker 1: but this time we're not beating the league up. Instead,
- 6:57Speaker 1: we're going to promote it in the right way. Rico
- 7:00Speaker 1: to serve as a league played by play voice for
- 7:02Speaker 1: NBC Sports NBA coverage, which begains twenty five twenty six.
- 7:06Speaker 1: You know, tournament start off with you. Mikerigo lives in
- 7:09Speaker 1: nearby Anna Urbur, Michigan. I know you saw him at
- 7:11Speaker 1: a recent event with Ken Daniels and so forth. So
- 7:14Speaker 1: your talks about Mike Rico getting the NBA job.
- 7:17Speaker 3: It doesn't surprise me at all. I mean, Mike is
- 7:20Speaker 3: now the signature voice of NBC Sports, of course, uh,
- 7:25Speaker 3: you know, he's He's just done a really good job
- 7:28Speaker 3: obviously hosting the Olympics and hosting uh Sunday Night Football
- 7:33Speaker 3: the last several years, and before that pregame shows and
- 7:36Speaker 3: on the golf coverage and that sort of thing. I
- 7:40Speaker 3: think it's a great move. I mean, yeah, you and
- 7:42Speaker 3: I Scott and then the rest of the crew here.
- 7:45Speaker 3: I mean we can remember when it was Bob Costas,
- 7:47Speaker 3: you know, the voice of NBC Sports, or Marv Albert,
- 7:51Speaker 3: you know, with the last time that NBC had the NBA.
- 7:55Speaker 3: But to tell you what to Rico, he's a great guy.
- 7:58Speaker 3: He's a really good guy's personal guy. They love him.
- 8:01Speaker 3: Here in the Detroit area, except for that one comment
- 8:04Speaker 3: he made in that Kansas City game Detroit victory over
- 8:07Speaker 3: Kansas City I Opening Night a couple of years ago.
- 8:10Speaker 3: Everybody got upset about that because he had an asterisk
- 8:13Speaker 3: possibly next to Detroit's win. But let's get back to
- 8:17Speaker 3: this subject, the subject of the NBA and Dariko. That's
- 8:21Speaker 3: a good choice.
- 8:21Speaker 1: I like it, Scott. I wonder how many times he's
- 8:24Speaker 1: heard that and how much he's learned from that one
- 8:26Speaker 1: all day long. Yeah, the lines anymore. So some talks
- 8:30Speaker 1: about Mike Tairico sharing the NBA MIC.
- 8:35Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, you know, he's one of the top
- 8:37Speaker 4: broadcasters right now. You know, I don't know what his
- 8:46Speaker 4: resume is as far as basketball, so I don't know
- 8:49Speaker 4: how well he'll do with that, but he seems like
- 8:52Speaker 4: a professional. And from what I've seen, when you're at
- 8:55Speaker 4: the top of your game, you know, like the top
- 8:58Speaker 4: guys Dave Simms, Mike Turrico, you know, guys of that caliber,
- 9:05Speaker 4: they could go to other sports at excel. But you know,
- 9:08Speaker 4: I like Mike. He's really good at what he does.
- 9:13Speaker 2: And then well deserved and I think he did one time.
- 9:20Speaker 2: I think he did NASCAR two in NBC Sports.
- 9:22Speaker 1: But he matter of fact, yeah he did. In fact,
- 9:25Speaker 1: that's a good point. How you bring it up. I
- 9:27Speaker 1: think he went out there. I don't think he called
- 9:29Speaker 1: a NASCAR rape, but he's been the host for so
- 9:32Speaker 1: many posts.
- 9:33Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's what I was getting that. Yeah,
- 9:37Speaker 2: But like Jamie said, he'll excel and I think he'll
- 9:41Speaker 2: be all right with that. But NBA made the right move, okay.
- 9:46Speaker 5: Kenny Frico joined ESPN back in nineteen ninety one. He
- 9:51Speaker 5: handled ESPN's Thursday night college football package, college basketball coverage
- 9:57Speaker 5: from ninety seven to two thousand and two, NBA coverage
- 10:01Speaker 5: from two thousand and two to twenty sixteen, golf coverage
- 10:05Speaker 5: on ESPN Slash ABC from ninety seven to twenty fifteen.
- 10:09Speaker 5: Since joining NBC Sports, Trico has become the lead primetime
- 10:13Speaker 5: host of the Olympics on NBC. He was the lead
- 10:16Speaker 5: play by play for Notre Dame football on NBC, host
- 10:20Speaker 5: of the Triple Crown Races on NBC, host of NBC's

- 10:27Speaker 5: coverage of the Indianapolis five hundred and also hosted NBC's
- 10:33Speaker 5: coverage of the Stanley Cup. Kudos to him.
- 10:36Speaker 1: I've actually met Mike Tarrika Behore at a Super Bowl.
- 10:39Speaker 1: One of the next guys you'll ever meet. My favorite
- 10:41Speaker 1: all time announcer who did it practically everything was Brent
- 10:45Speaker 1: Musberger idol. And when I think about when I think
- 10:49Speaker 1: about Brent Mousberg, I got a great story I have
- 10:51Speaker 1: to tell y'all. In New Orleans. Okay, I had a
- 10:53Speaker 1: guy on last night who was very lively, and you know,
- 10:56Speaker 1: he drankd some of that stuff that Bob Yuker promoted
- 10:59Speaker 1: once the fun of times, you know, for those of
- 11:01Speaker 1: you that understand it, those of you that do do,
- 11:05Speaker 1: those that don't don't. But the reality is, when I
- 11:09Speaker 1: went to New Orleans the first time, I was the
- 11:11Speaker 1: nineteen eighty two Final four and saw Brent Musburger, I
- 11:16Speaker 1: got lost on a Gray Line tour and one of
- 11:19Speaker 1: my friends was on it with me. We were staying
- 11:21Speaker 1: at the YMCA in downtown New Orleans. I mean, we
- 11:25Speaker 1: couldn't find a room anywhere. And that was back in
- 11:27Speaker 1: eighty two. People eighty two, So what do you think happened?
- 11:31Speaker 1: I lost my tour, lost my twenty bout that contain
- 11:33Speaker 1: Piggot Stakes really theresly and I'll go back to New
- 11:36Speaker 1: Orleans for there. Bourban three, where do I go? A
- 11:40Speaker 1: bump across some people from Metro from actually Michigan, and
- 11:44Speaker 1: I was wearing a Michigan tech Husky shirt on jacket. Rather,
- 11:49Speaker 1: I took my second warmant jacket and as it turns out,
- 11:54Speaker 1: it was pretty cold. And with me then what do
- 11:57Speaker 1: you think I happened? Brought cost these nice people? They
- 11:59Speaker 1: took me to this place called Pat O'Brien's. If you
- 12:03Speaker 1: don't know what a hurricane drag is, they have two
- 12:05Speaker 1: or three of those things, you'll know what it is.
- 12:07Speaker 1: I can guarantee I don't care if you call it
- 12:09Speaker 1: the golf from Mexico, the Golf of America, whatever the
- 12:12Speaker 1: heck you want to call it. I got so hammered
- 12:16Speaker 1: a ped O'Brien's that was unbelievable. And I'm gonna tell
- 12:19Speaker 1: you one thing. I couldn't find a cab on Bourbon Street.
- 12:21Speaker 1: You know why, people there wasn't one. So these people
- 12:24Speaker 1: were nice enough to give me twenty dollars for a cab,
- 12:27Speaker 1: and I want to put it in my pocket. DROs
- 12:30Speaker 1: my money back for the tour. And then my friend
- 12:33Speaker 1: who's waiting for me over at the YMCA, says, where
- 12:37Speaker 1: are you fend now? Where you've been? This guy down here?
- 12:41Speaker 1: See these grave sites that are above ground because everybody
- 12:44Speaker 1: knows the New Orleans, you know, they're below sea levels.
- 12:48Speaker 1: And instead of me alone to go ahead and sleep
- 12:51Speaker 1: his hangover off, what do you think he does? He
- 12:54Speaker 1: take me to Popeye Fried Chicken. Why are you taking
- 12:57Speaker 1: me there? And let me tell you if that place
- 13:00Speaker 1: and ticket I've ever had telling me something was and
- 13:02Speaker 1: back then was at eighty two. I didn't know what
- 13:05Speaker 1: the cagent was then. But you want to talk about
- 13:08Speaker 1: the quickest way to get rid of the hurricane, people
- 13:11Speaker 1: go out there to Popeye Fried Chicken, those three or
- 13:14Speaker 1: fourth names. I'll put you to sleep pretty quick. And
- 13:16Speaker 1: then I ended up going to sleep early. I was
- 13:18Speaker 1: snoring so kind of picking a lot. He woke me up.
- 13:20Speaker 1: I never got back to sleep, and he was storing
- 13:22Speaker 1: and I couldn't wake him up. That wasn't fair. But
- 13:25Speaker 1: you know what, I got the Bourbon Street treatment and
- 13:27Speaker 1: that was so bad. So there you go. Brt Musburger.
- 13:31Speaker 1: Here the reason I lost that money, but I got
- 13:33Speaker 1: it back later on. That's my friend Musburger story for
- 13:35Speaker 1: the night. Oh he was go an Orleans Bourbon Streate
- 13:39Speaker 1: and that's where Katie and I we're gonna make her
- 13:41Speaker 1: way somewhere along the lines, all right, not my New
- 13:44Speaker 1: Orleans story. I don't really talk about this sport, but
- 13:47Speaker 1: I'm gonna do it tonight in the USA and Madison
- 13:50Speaker 1: Key's upset two time defending champion Aeronas Stablinka of Belarus
- 13:55Speaker 1: six three two six seven five in the Australian and
- 14:00Speaker 1: Final on Saturday Night to collect her first Grand Plant
- 14:02Speaker 1: title at age twenty nine. Everybody's thinking, if you already
- 14:06Speaker 1: had that pedal, Bryan Hurricanes Drake tonight, because you're talking
- 14:10Speaker 1: about tennis. Once upon a time there was Chris sever Billy,
- 14:14Speaker 1: Jean King, Martinina Nobre at Thelova like when I was
- 14:16Speaker 1: growing up. And if that wasn't good enough, George and
- 14:19Speaker 1: his book had repaired with Jimmy Conners, and of course
- 14:23Speaker 1: I all know about Boris Becker, John mcenroll in the rest.
- 14:27Speaker 1: So Candy, I know you like to talk about tennis. First, Well,
- 14:30Speaker 1: your thoughts about me number one? Talking about tennis. Sunday's shout.
- 14:34Speaker 1: This is in corn hole. This is tennis. It's York part.
- 14:38Speaker 5: I'm impressed. What can I say? You talking about tennis.
- 14:44Speaker 5: It takes an awful lot for that to happen. But
- 14:48Speaker 5: kudos to her for, you know, finally winning when she
- 14:54Speaker 5: was what you said, twenty nine years old.
- 14:57Speaker 2: Yeah, we I would.
- 14:59Speaker 5: Say, in tennis, you don't have as many of the
- 15:03Speaker 5: like you said, the big names anymore, the Jimmy Connors,
- 15:06Speaker 5: the McEnroe, like Chris Everett's Martinez we have from down here, yes,
- 15:16Speaker 5: but who for her? I like love the sport. I
- 15:22Speaker 5: love to play it, haven't played it in a while,
- 15:24Speaker 5: but it's one of my favorite sports.
- 15:28Speaker 1: There you go, people, I don't know what I'm going
- 15:30Speaker 1: to talk about tennis again. He then, but you're going
- 15:33Speaker 1: to talk about it for the first time you're about.
- 15:40Speaker 2: I don't don't watch it. So if she wins at
- 15:47Speaker 2: that age, I'm proud of her. So that's all I
- 15:51Speaker 2: can say about that.
- 15:53Speaker 1: I bring bringing that subject. I need to get that
- 15:59Speaker 1: laugh of deft. Believe that all right? Jbl Yeah, we
- 16:02Speaker 1: got it.
- 16:03Speaker 4: So I mean, congratulations to anybody that's a champion of
- 16:08Speaker 4: a major event, uh in one of them, in any sport.
- 16:12Speaker 4: I mean in at twenty nine to win your first major,
- 16:16Speaker 4: you know, that's impressive. You know there are for people
- 16:20Speaker 4: that don't know. If you want to find out about tennis,
- 16:23Speaker 4: betout it because there are tournaments every day and they range,
- 16:29Speaker 4: they go way down to like levels that probably we
- 16:33Speaker 4: could probably maybe get a point at we could have win,
- 16:38Speaker 4: but we can maybe get a point. That's how many
- 16:40Speaker 4: different levels there are. So to get to the top
- 16:43Speaker 4: of the pro game and win a major, especially at
- 16:46Speaker 4: twenty nine, that's an accomplishment.
- 16:48Speaker 1: Good for her, all right, George, you and I got
- 16:51Speaker 1: to have a little set of trip down memory lane.
- 16:54Speaker 1: The work event that we ever saw at the Palace
- 16:57Speaker 1: of bumber Hills was when Andre Legacy opened up the
- 17:01Speaker 1: Palace of Overnells. So this is a two parter George, Okay,
- 17:06Speaker 1: number one. Were your thoughts about what the young lady accomplished? Well, technically,
- 17:13Speaker 1: let's go back to that time that we had a
- 17:16Speaker 1: sense to watch at the palace.
- 17:17Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, Madison Keys, she's been waiting a long time.
- 17:22Speaker 3: She's been waiting a very long time. She's been in
- 17:25Speaker 3: forty six Grand slams now not the finals. She's been
- 17:28Speaker 3: in forty six Grand Slams, which is Australia, Paris, you know, London, Wimbledon,
- 17:34Speaker 3: and New York. So this gal's been waiting a long time.
- 17:39Speaker 4: She twenty nine.
- 17:39Speaker 3: It took her seven years from her first appearance in
- 17:43Speaker 3: the finals. But now I tell you what, it was great.
- 17:48Speaker 3: It was great seeing her win. I know a lot
- 17:49Speaker 3: of people don't follow tennis like they used to, but
- 17:52Speaker 3: that's a long time for her to be in forty
- 17:54Speaker 3: six Grand Slam events and finally get the victory. And
- 17:56Speaker 3: what a great comeback. She became the first woman in
- 18:00Speaker 3: sixteen years they said to defeat the top two seeds
- 18:04Speaker 3: at a major. You know, you knocked off the number
- 18:07Speaker 3: one and the number two. My god, you deserved her.
- 18:09Speaker 3: War a great job. Madison Keys represent the United States
- 18:13Speaker 3: very well. I'd like to see those US athletes get
- 18:15Speaker 3: wins in those major tournaments like that.
- 18:17Speaker 5: She actually was born in Illinois and now lives in Florida.
- 18:22Speaker 5: She's ranked fourteenth and was seated nineteenth and was playing
- 18:26Speaker 5: in her second major final after being the runner up
- 18:28Speaker 5: at the twenty seventeen US Open. Oh yeah, and her
- 18:33Speaker 5: coach is her husband.
- 18:35Speaker 1: You know, Andre Agency has good takes of women. All
- 18:38Speaker 1: he did was Mary STEPI draft that isn't bad. That's
- 18:41Speaker 1: just the prime the word love. Tell me what it
- 18:43Speaker 1: is bad? Analogy. I'm going to a good station break, candy.

- 19:38Speaker 1: Have very good candy, all right, three more Tomas going
- 19:40Speaker 1: to get too. We will have time for party shots.
- 19:42Speaker 1: By the way, opponents have had more penalties than the
- 19:46Speaker 1: Chiefs and eleven straight playoff games. Let's come from CBS
- 19:49Speaker 1: four for your thoughts about that. Pandmin.
- 19:57Speaker 2: I'm going to go and say that the Chiefs need
- 20:01Speaker 2: to stop doing what they're doing. And that is my opinion.
- 20:06Speaker 2: That is the Chiefs. I don't know what they're doing
- 20:09Speaker 2: to pay the rest, but they are doing it, So
- 20:14Speaker 2: that's my opinion.
- 20:17Speaker 4: Okay, Joe, Yeah, I mean I missed the topic.
- 20:21Speaker 1: That might just repeat it. Opponents have had more penalties
- 20:27Speaker 1: than the Chiefs in eleven straight playoff.
- 20:29Speaker 4: Games, so I mean I got the I was listening
- 20:35Speaker 4: to serious radio today and you know, I can't wait
- 20:39Speaker 4: to run into uh Cody Decker bab check our radio row.
- 20:45Speaker 4: But they had Dick right on this morning. DA did
- 20:50Speaker 4: a YouTube but and then he was on Shine on
- 20:53Speaker 4: Sports on the nine o'clock hour. That man is delirious
- 20:57Speaker 4: saying that the Chiefs don't have and vantage with the
- 21:01Speaker 4: coals that they received during these playoff runs. Now, don't
- 21:06Speaker 4: get me wrong, you still got to beat the team,
- 21:09Speaker 4: you know, And I'm a firm believer in. You know,
- 21:13Speaker 4: you have to beat them. You're going to beat both
- 21:15Speaker 4: them and the referees. You know, you it's not just
- 21:18Speaker 4: the penalties. Even the spots were horrible. If you go
- 21:22Speaker 4: back to the game, you know, the biggest game changing
- 21:26Speaker 4: plays of the game the third and fourth down when
- 21:28Speaker 4: the Bills had the first down two times and they
- 21:31Speaker 4: didn't get it either time. You know, so the referees
- 21:34Speaker 4: are definitely doing a horrible job. Do I think it's fixed. No,
- 21:40Speaker 4: but there's definitely you know where they're a well liked
- 21:44Speaker 4: team and they're getting coals, and it's just it's at
- 21:47Speaker 4: the point where it's ridiculous and people don't want to
- 21:49Speaker 4: see that. They want to see the games refereed fairly.
- 21:53Speaker 4: I don't think, like I said, I don't think it's
- 21:54Speaker 4: a matter of it being fixed. I think it's a
- 21:56Speaker 4: it's a perceived bias, you know, where they just happened
- 22:00Speaker 4: to be liked. I don't think the NFL is sitting there. Well,
- 22:03Speaker 4: we want the Chiefs to be in there, even though
- 22:05Speaker 4: they have Taylor Swift and everything. You know, I'm not
- 22:08Speaker 4: gonna go on that conspiracy, although it'd be great if
- 22:10Speaker 4: that came out that we'd have a lot to talk
- 22:12Speaker 4: about for years. But I really don't think that's the case.
- 22:16Speaker 4: I think it's a perceived bias. But you know, they
- 22:20Speaker 4: definitely get the better calls. But it's the same thing
- 22:22Speaker 4: that happened when Brady played, you know, New England got
- 22:25Speaker 4: better calls. I mean, look at the tuck rule. Di
- 22:28Speaker 4: did that come out one of the playoff games against
- 22:32Speaker 4: the Raiders in the snow where they got that crazy
- 22:35Speaker 4: call that they ended up winning because of it, and
- 22:37Speaker 4: the rule all of a sudden went into an effect.
- 22:39Speaker 4: So I mean the really good team, Yeah, the really
- 22:42Speaker 4: good teams seem to get these calls. So it's just
- 22:45Speaker 4: the way it is.
- 22:49Speaker 3: George, I still find it hard to believe that there's
- 22:53Speaker 3: a fact. Okay, like you said, Joe, I don't think
- 22:56Speaker 3: so either. It is it? You know, is it starstruck?
- 23:02Speaker 2: What is it?
- 23:03Speaker 3: What is it going through the minds of these officials.
- 23:06Speaker 3: And I'm glad you brought up Brady because that man
- 23:08Speaker 3: wants seven rings and you can't tell me that he
- 23:11Speaker 3: got more than a few breaks. He got a hell
- 23:13Speaker 3: of a lot of breaks. This situation is just getting
- 23:16Speaker 3: totally out of hand though. Now, I mean, you know,
- 23:19Speaker 3: you know, you know, calls and and in like the
- 23:22Speaker 3: spotting of the ball that everybody could see that it
- 23:25Speaker 3: was wrong, and yet you go to the replay official
- 23:29Speaker 3: and they seem to get it wrong. The thing that
- 23:31Speaker 3: I like is you got these officials up in the
- 23:33Speaker 3: booth now Jeans Terotor and and these different guys, these
- 23:37Speaker 3: ex officials that are commenting on these calls and pulling
- 23:41Speaker 3: no punches. Steve Javy, my friend, does it for the
- 23:45Speaker 3: NBA for ESPN during the finals, and it's a good idea.
- 23:49Speaker 2: I like it.
- 23:50Speaker 3: But anyways, they're they're they're finding stuff too that doesn't
- 23:52Speaker 3: seem to make a lot of sense. Whether it's a
- 23:54Speaker 3: penalty called or not called. Interference is always a big one.
- 23:58Speaker 3: And then of course, like you said, spotting the ball,
- 24:00Speaker 3: I you know, come on, let's have a clean game.
- 24:03Speaker 3: Let's have a clean Super Bowl game. A man from
- 24:06Speaker 3: Michigan State has got the honor. Rob Tolbert's second Super
- 24:11Speaker 3: Bowl is the referee, the lead ref and I'm hoping
- 24:13Speaker 3: that he calls a great game. That's all I can say.
- 24:16Speaker 1: Well, you know, I'm a little mix on this, but
- 24:19Speaker 1: so I won't really go either way. But the one
- 24:20Speaker 1: thing I'm gonna say about that Buffalo Bills Kansas City
- 24:22Speaker 1: Chief game. Tell me how on or Joe Brady to
- 24:26Speaker 1: sit there and keep doing this tush bus three four
- 24:30Speaker 1: or five six times to the left. I don't know
- 24:32Speaker 1: why they're already waiting for it. Why don't you go
- 24:34Speaker 1: out there due to the right drow a little screen path?
- 24:37Speaker 1: Don't you talk about the most predictable thing that they're
- 24:40Speaker 1: planning for? Seriously? Really, let mean, come on, I understand
- 24:44Speaker 1: the pushbush is one of those things here, but you
- 24:47Speaker 1: can't Josh Allen could do it so many times at
- 24:49Speaker 1: some point somebody's gonna figure it out. So yeah, you know,
- 24:52Speaker 1: the object of the game is to score more points
- 24:55Speaker 1: than the other team, is really what it is. And
- 24:59Speaker 1: unfortunate he bore the Buffalo Bills. Now they we talked
- 25:04Speaker 1: about this on last night's position of inside the fixed
- 25:06Speaker 1: gain Patrick mahomes for Josh Josh Ellen nothing but the toushbush,
- 25:13Speaker 1: the Buffalo bill said, opportunity to win this game better
- 25:16Speaker 1: teams like Joe alluded to, Brady had the calls that
- 25:20Speaker 1: in the end, you just have to make one more
- 25:22Speaker 1: play than the other. Unfortunately for the Buffalo Bills, they
- 25:24Speaker 1: were able to do that during the AFC Championship game.
- 25:30Speaker 1: That's really stand. A couple of other topics I want
- 25:33Speaker 1: to get to. There will be time, yes, Scott.
- 25:35Speaker 5: Can I put my two sons in on this topic?
- 25:38Speaker 2: Yeah?
- 25:38Speaker 1: Sure, go ahead.
- 25:40Speaker 5: So what I'm gonna say is, do I think it's fixed? No?
- 25:43Speaker 5: But I think in all sports, the top team's top
- 25:48Speaker 5: talent get the calls in their favor. Does Lebron James
- 25:52Speaker 5: get the calls in his waiver? Did Michael Jordan get
- 25:55Speaker 5: the calls in his favor? Yes? Did Tom Brady?
- 25:58Speaker 1: Yes?
- 25:59Speaker 5: So I think that's what we're seeing is the top
- 26:01Speaker 5: talent or top tiers, whether it's individual or team sports,
- 26:05Speaker 5: they're going to get the calls. And it's just the
- 26:08Speaker 5: way it is until it's changed. So my two cents, thanks, Scott.
- 26:13Speaker 1: Has been a lot. Thanks for reminding me. Appreciate it
- 26:17Speaker 1: all right, Natural Football. He announces a content partnership with
- 26:24Speaker 1: Bleacher Report in House of Highlights ahead of Super Bowl
- 26:28Speaker 1: fifty nine. George, you know you and I are definitely
- 26:31Speaker 1: big media guys. Who are your thoughts about this partnership?
- 26:35Speaker 3: Well, nothing surprises me anymore. I mean, you know they're
- 26:38Speaker 3: they're always looking for different avenues. They're always looking to
- 26:41Speaker 3: reach a different audience.
- 26:43Speaker 1: JB.
- 26:43Speaker 3: You you know, or somebody who alluded to Taylor Swift
- 26:47Speaker 3: a little while ago, And don't tell me that they're not,
- 26:50Speaker 3: you know, chopping at the bit like they have been
- 26:52Speaker 3: for the last two years. They have her involved as
- 26:55Speaker 3: she brings in a whole different audience for the NFL.
- 26:58Speaker 3: So the bleacher report thing, you know, I don't know,
- 27:01Speaker 3: we'll see. I mean, you know, there's so many things
- 27:03Speaker 3: going on right now with the NFL involved in streaming
- 27:07Speaker 3: and all these things, and the gambling stuff, which is
- 27:10Speaker 3: a whole joke, you know, but I don't want to
- 27:12Speaker 3: get into that right now. But there's a lot of
- 27:15Speaker 3: opportunities out there still for the NFL. As big as
- 27:19Speaker 3: they are and as wide as they their net is,
- 27:23Speaker 3: there's still opportunities like that. So I find that pretty interesting.
- 27:26Speaker 3: The one will bleach your report.
- 27:27Speaker 1: Yeah, so you're a media guy, Lisay.
- 27:32Speaker 4: You know, when you run an organization like the NFL,
- 27:35Speaker 4: you know you could do one of two things. You
- 27:38Speaker 4: could keep trying to grow it with strategic partnerships and
- 27:42Speaker 4: figure out where you could get the next generation of
- 27:44Speaker 4: fin in and the next people that aren't paying attention,
- 27:48Speaker 4: or you could do what MLB is doing, what the
- 27:51Speaker 4: NBA is starting to do, and do absolutely nothing. You
- 27:56Speaker 4: need to always try and find the people that aren't
- 27:59Speaker 4: watching and what you could do to bring them in.
- 28:03Speaker 4: And that's why, you know, having these partnerships there are
- 28:07Speaker 4: great for the NFL and Bleacher Reports as well respected.
- 28:11Speaker 4: They've been around a long time last I believe, I
- 28:15Speaker 4: don't know if they still are owned by but Turner
- 28:17Speaker 4: owns them, and Turner Sports has done a fabulous job
- 28:21Speaker 4: and putting a whole bunch of things together. They what
- 28:23Speaker 4: they do with the NBA. You saw the outcry when
- 28:25Speaker 4: they almost lost the NBA show. You know, it's just
- 28:30Speaker 4: a good organization. And that's a smart move by the NFL.
- 28:35Speaker 2: And then smart move by the NFL. And I think
- 28:39Speaker 2: doesn't Fay Sports own them too? I don't know if
- 28:48Speaker 2: I don't know. I thought I thought Family Sports owned
- 28:50Speaker 2: them too, But I think that made it good to
- 28:52Speaker 2: me a smart move by the NFL of bringing them on.
- 28:57Speaker 4: Handy your muty, Candy.
- 29:05Speaker 5: By aligning NFL content with Bleacher Reports digital first content platform,
- 29:10Speaker 5: we can expand the reach of our sport and deliver
- 29:14Speaker 5: the content fans crave on a new level so that
- 29:18Speaker 5: they are actually doing it right now, capturing it on
- 29:22Speaker 5: the Super Bowl, the NFL Draft, and the NFL scouting combine,
- 29:26Speaker 5: and they started the partnership ahead of wild card weekends.
- 29:30Speaker 5: So it's providing the next generation of fans with a
- 29:33Speaker 5: new way to access highlights and game recaps. For those
- 29:37Speaker 5: of us that cover the NFL, we know that we
- 29:39Speaker 5: can only use very little snippets because of all the
- 29:43Speaker 5: TV rights and stuff like that. So kudos to Bleacher Report.
- 29:50Speaker 1: Well that's true. So all I can say is that
- 29:53Speaker 1: just makes our responsibility to jill them much more intent.
- 29:55Speaker 1: But we try to dig our own, hey, right, But yeah,
- 29:57Speaker 1: So the other great partnership between two organism between Bleacher Report.
- 30:03Speaker 1: To me, they're as credible as you get. They're one
- 30:05Speaker 1: of the most content providers out there, and the NFL
- 30:09Speaker 1: knows how to line themselves up with the right partners
- 30:11Speaker 1: and they definitely did quite well with this. One last
- 30:13Speaker 1: topic of the night that we're going to go to
- 30:15Speaker 1: party shots. I hope everybody has one, because I certainly
- 30:17Speaker 1: had one. NFL and YouTube doesn't access. Actually, they'll debut
- 30:23Speaker 1: and access pats for legends, opening doors of the new
- 30:26Speaker 1: wave of get This Athlete Media. Brandon Marshall kicks off
- 30:32Speaker 1: the initiative with Cam Newton, JT O'Sullivan named Kurt Benkat
- 30:37Speaker 1: also taking part this year. So all right, Pensland. Some
- 30:41Speaker 1: talk about NFL and YouTube and the biggest two words
- 30:45Speaker 1: you have to remember is athlete media. Fenman thinks, just
- 30:48Speaker 1: way athlete media, because this is stubbed down to athlete media. YouTube.
- 30:53Speaker 1: Try to break it down simple, go out there and
- 30:55Speaker 1: see if you can clear it up. Jade Wyatt, glad
- 30:57Speaker 1: to have you in the chat room. Great stuff will
- 31:00Speaker 1: be on it in a couple of weeks with Jamie Ellis.
- 31:02Speaker 1: So meanwhile, go ahead, just proud of them.
- 31:07Speaker 2: He's a good athlete, so it's just proud of him
- 31:10Speaker 2: what he's doing. So keep YouTube's growing. YouTube TV is growing,
- 31:16Speaker 2: So I approve of it. It's good.
- 31:18Speaker 1: Who's the he? I need to know who the he is?
- 31:21Speaker 1: I got four of them, wall.
- 31:25Speaker 2: I don't know, you don't know, Okay, you know, I'm stump.
- 31:30Speaker 1: All right, that's okay. Don't be afraid to emit. You're something.
- 31:33Speaker 1: Not everybody who knows everything about every topic, but all
- 31:35Speaker 1: you have to understand about this whole things, with all
- 31:38Speaker 1: due respect is athlete media and they have four credible
- 31:41Speaker 1: athletes involved. And we all know how big YouTube is,
- 31:44Speaker 1: and that's what everybody's looking for subscribers, right or I
- 31:50Speaker 1: like to joke around with you.
- 31:52Speaker 2: Plus YouTube tv is getting bigger too.
- 31:54Speaker 1: Well, it is, and that's where the NFL ticket is.
- 31:57Speaker 1: All right, we'll turn over.
- 31:59Speaker 4: To Joe listen. I mean, it's a crowded space. Everybody's
- 32:04Speaker 4: getting involved in athlete media, believe which Sideline Sports is
- 32:09Speaker 4: one of the shows on there. Alumni Network with Sideline
- 32:12Speaker 4: Sports is on. Those are just two of the avenues
- 32:15Speaker 4: we're on. And you know we have Dave with us.
- 32:19Speaker 4: Then there's YouTube. There's you know, the mainstream ESPN, Fox Sports,
- 32:24Speaker 4: which have athletes. YouTube, Yahoo. It's just it's a crowded space,
- 32:29Speaker 4: you know, and it's good and it's bad, you know,
- 32:34Speaker 4: for us, it makes it more difficult. You know, I
- 32:39Speaker 4: don't know everyone's background. I didn't go to a school
- 32:41Speaker 4: for journalism, so for me to be in this space,
- 32:44Speaker 4: I've had to work really hard to get where I am.
- 32:47Speaker 4: And that's not a bad thing because I've learned a
- 32:49Speaker 4: lot doing it. But when you're you know, when you're
- 32:52Speaker 4: going up against the former athlete that you know, gets
- 32:55Speaker 4: some broadcast training. You know, they they have advantages that
- 32:59Speaker 4: that we don't have, and that's good for them, you know,
- 33:02Speaker 4: because they know things that maybe I won't see. So
- 33:05Speaker 4: it's good to have different perspectives from all sides. And
- 33:09Speaker 4: you know, I think it's a good move. I think,
- 33:10Speaker 4: you know, I just think it's a very crowded avenue though,
- 33:13Speaker 4: because there are so many entities that are doing that
- 33:16Speaker 4: now and to see who will survive it and how
- 33:20Speaker 4: far it will go, because there's only so much we
- 33:23Speaker 4: can consume, as you know, people that enjoy sports. I
- 33:27Speaker 4: can't listen to all the different podcasts, watch all the
- 33:30Speaker 4: YouTube shows, ESPN and everything that I want to watch,
- 33:35Speaker 4: so you know, fighting for those viewers is so difficult.
- 33:41Speaker 3: George, Well, yeah, I mean you guys have summed it
- 33:45Speaker 3: up pretty well. All so far, so good. I mean,
- 33:48Speaker 3: athletes are always moving into the broadcast booths. You know,
- 33:51Speaker 3: Scott and I have been doing this thing for forty
- 33:53Speaker 3: five years and we've seen so many people go into
- 33:57Speaker 3: the broadcast booth. I mean locally. Know, we had teams
- 34:01Speaker 3: in Detroit, you know, and you see the former players
- 34:03Speaker 3: that were idolized move into the broadcast area. I wan
- 34:07Speaker 3: start naming names, but it's a constant flow, so that
- 34:11Speaker 3: part of it is nothing new. The fact of the
- 34:14Speaker 3: matter is is that this is all part of this YouTube,
- 34:17Speaker 3: like you said, the NFL and YouTube. These athletes that
- 34:21Speaker 3: are getting going into this this avenue, if you will,
- 34:26Speaker 3: are are pretty fortunate.
- 34:29Speaker 1: Really.
- 34:30Speaker 3: I mean, some of them, you know, maybe had not
- 34:33Speaker 3: so good careers, are just so so careers, and some
- 34:36Speaker 3: of them were stars. We know the whole story behind Brady,
- 34:39Speaker 3: you know, the whole money that Fox gave him and
- 34:41Speaker 3: then yet he didn't he wasn't ready to start the
- 34:43Speaker 3: contract yet and all that. But the guys that really
- 34:46Speaker 3: really are serious about this and do take it seriously
- 34:49Speaker 3: have done well for themselves. And you know, they've done
- 34:52Speaker 3: very well for themselves. And they're all over the broadcast network,
- 34:56Speaker 3: and you know, and you know, even the coaches Tony
- 34:58Speaker 3: John Dungee and and Bill Kher and you know John
- 35:02Speaker 3: Madden in his day. I mean, you know, don't forget
- 35:04Speaker 3: those guys. The coaches have done well too. But I mean, yeah,
- 35:08Speaker 3: you're going to see more and more of this. We
- 35:09Speaker 3: see a lot of it already. Of course, with athletes
- 35:13Speaker 3: moving into these positions. But the only thing I don't
- 35:16Speaker 3: like about it, and I think Scott and I can
- 35:18Speaker 3: relate to this too, is you know, the young guys,
- 35:21Speaker 3: the young guys, the young men and the young women
- 35:23Speaker 3: trying to get into the business, they don't have a
- 35:26Speaker 3: full table to play from because there's so many ex
- 35:31Speaker 3: athletes that get a lot of those positions in those jobs.
- 35:35Speaker 3: That's the only thing I don't like is that there's
- 35:37Speaker 3: less of us, the average Joe or the average Mary
- 35:41Speaker 3: that's trying to make a career in sports media candy.
- 35:49Speaker 5: So it gives us. It features candid conversations, game analysis,
- 35:55Speaker 5: reactions to career highlights, and personal insights from a former
- 35:59Speaker 5: players perspective. Access passed for Legends gives fans an intimate,
- 36:04Speaker 5: first person look at the game through the lens of
- 36:07Speaker 5: some of the league's greatest athletes, all while opening doors
- 36:11Speaker 5: for a new wave of sports media, which is true.
- 36:14Speaker 5: But let's face it, Tom Brady's now on the booth.
- 36:17Speaker 5: The Manning brothers if you've watched them, and they call
- 36:21Speaker 5: the games too, and it's through their lens too. It's
- 36:26Speaker 5: it's great for maybe the athletes that weren't great because
- 36:32Speaker 5: the great athletes already have enough money. They don't need
- 36:35Speaker 5: to be you know, I think it's kind of would
- 36:38Speaker 5: be cool for some of the some of the athletes
- 36:41Speaker 5: that maybe need the money because they don't have the
- 36:44Speaker 5: money you know that some of the other ones have.
- 36:47Speaker 5: And it doesn't take away from the young budding journalist
- 36:50Speaker 5: that wants to do get into sports media. The whole
- 36:55Speaker 5: media realm has changed so much over the years that
- 37:00Speaker 5: I can only imagine what a college course of journalism
- 37:04Speaker 5: is nowadays, because it's not just your typical writing and
- 37:08Speaker 5: speaking on TV or having a radio.
- 37:11Speaker 4: I have a face for radio.
- 37:14Speaker 5: I mean, now now you're gonna hey, but YouTube, yeah,
- 37:17Speaker 5: social media, you have so much other things that it's
- 37:20Speaker 5: just it's opened a lot of doors, but it's also
- 37:24Speaker 5: exposed everybody in different lights as well.
- 37:28Speaker 1: Yeah, you've definitely opened up some doors with those comments. Candy,
- 37:31Speaker 1: Why do you think I wrote that book in the
- 37:33Speaker 1: first place. I didn't know anything about this camera business
- 37:36Speaker 1: until I went with to work with Peter Wean back
- 37:38Speaker 1: in the day when I knew that, hey, act take
- 37:40Speaker 1: patients of doing this stuff. That was pretty wild stuff.
- 37:43Speaker 1: But you know, with all due respect to the guy
- 37:45Speaker 1: that intrigued me. The whole thing is Cam Newton, Steven
- 37:48Speaker 1: Ah Smith and first take a done good job. And
- 37:50Speaker 1: now this guy dresses like a clown, but he's looking
- 37:53Speaker 1: good as a clown. And the smarter he gets that
- 37:55Speaker 1: we can bring more clowns. One thing I forgot to
- 37:58Speaker 1: mention at the top of the show, however, and I
- 38:00Speaker 1: didn't say a whole lot on Jaydien Daniels, but this
- 38:03Speaker 1: is one Hypen Trophy winner that's finally doing what I
- 38:05Speaker 1: hy Been Trophy winner's supposed to do in net succeed.
- 38:08Speaker 1: I still think it's the most overrated award on the planet,
- 38:12Speaker 1: but that's my take on that. But getting back to
- 38:14Speaker 1: this Candy, that's a major reason I wrote a book
- 38:16Speaker 1: at planning to write another one as well. So great segue,
- 38:20Speaker 1: you know, write the book.
- 38:22Speaker 2: Yeah, go ahead. I want to say one thing Candy
- 38:25Speaker 2: just gave me. Candy just gave me an idea. She
- 38:28Speaker 2: said that love athlete giving him ideas Candy athletes that
- 38:32Speaker 2: actually deserve it. My wife just pointed out that there's
- 38:36Speaker 2: an NBA player named Delonte West that used to play
- 38:39Speaker 2: for San Jose. The San Jose uh Over in Philadelphia.
- 38:45Speaker 2: He got drafted by the New Orleans, the Orlando Magic.
- 38:49Speaker 2: Now he retired from the NBA. Now he's homeless. If
- 38:53Speaker 2: he makes an NBA channel and just plays NBA two
- 38:57Speaker 2: k's twenty five, twenty four, whatever, and get his name
- 39:01Speaker 2: out there and get his money, he's homeless now. So
- 39:04Speaker 2: all he has to do is get come back in
- 39:06Speaker 2: here and just get his name out there. That would
- 39:08Speaker 2: be good. Cam Newton's Cam Newton's over here playing NCA football.
- 39:15Speaker 2: He doesn't need to. He already had a Super Bowl title.
- 39:17Speaker 2: He has over one hundred pounds, over over one hundred
- 39:20Speaker 2: million dollars. Give West a chance.
- 39:24Speaker 1: Well, he came out. Well, but I know where you're
- 39:26Speaker 1: going with it. Yeah, Cam Newton has made a fair
- 39:28Speaker 1: amount of money. And I don't know who provides his wardrobe,
- 39:32Speaker 1: but you can rest sure we're providing his wardrobe.
- 39:35Speaker 2: For Cam ut it's Steve Harvey's pretty.
- 39:38Speaker 1: Interesting, you know. I like the way he dresses because
- 39:40Speaker 1: his character is what it is. And ESPN builds everybody
- 39:43Speaker 1: up on the planet. They just can't retain any announcement.
- 39:46Speaker 2: It might be Steve Harvey who knows.
- 39:48Speaker 1: And Delante West is an interesting story. I understand. Unfortunately,
- 39:52Speaker 1: a lot of NBA players and they've made a lot
- 39:54Speaker 1: of money and follow into hardships and it's sort another day.
- 39:58Speaker 2: But I'm glad he thought about that. I'm just saying
- 40:02Speaker 2: the YouTube channel and he can make money and he
- 40:05Speaker 2: won't be he won't be in a situation.
- 40:07Speaker 1: Well, now let me ask you a question.
- 40:09Speaker 2: What's up?
- 40:10Speaker 1: You have a party shot?
- 40:12Speaker 2: Yeah?
- 40:13Speaker 1: What is it?
- 40:15Speaker 2: You want me do it now? Yeah? Jimmy Butler is
- 40:19Speaker 2: suspended again for the third time. Jimmy Butler, get out
- 40:23Speaker 2: of the NBA. Do not compare yourself to run our test.
- 40:27Speaker 2: You're not run our test. Get out of the NBA.
- 40:29Speaker 2: You go up. You do not talk back to pat Riley.
- 40:33Speaker 2: Pat Riley is your boss. You never talked back to
- 40:36Speaker 2: your boss period. That's my party shot.
- 40:39Speaker 1: Maybe I wish I didn't give you one. That I
- 40:44Speaker 1: need to expand on yours, though, But that's okay, penman.
- 40:47Speaker 1: I'll take your party shot all day long. You can
- 40:50Speaker 1: come up with your.
- 40:53Speaker 5: So mine is. Kudos to the Wisconsin Pro Baseball Park District.
- 40:59Speaker 5: They have proved a fifty four point nine million dollars
- 41:03Speaker 5: that was needed to winterize American Family Field. This means
- 41:08Speaker 5: that as soon as next year, the home of the
- 41:10Speaker 5: Brewers will be able to host concerts and other events
- 41:14Speaker 5: year round. Winterizing the stadium means the stadium will be
- 41:18Speaker 5: able to be heated to sixty eight degrees inside while
- 41:21Speaker 5: outside temperatures drop to minus ten degrees. So now they'll
- 41:25Speaker 5: be able to use that stadium for more than just
- 41:28Speaker 5: a couple of months that they've been using it. So
- 41:30Speaker 5: kudos to them, because I mean, that was a big expense,
- 41:33Speaker 5: you know, the stadiums. So happy for them that they'll
- 41:37Speaker 5: be able to host other events, other concerts there.
- 41:43Speaker 1: Well done, Katie, I like that really good, Okay, George
- 41:46Speaker 1: with cheers.
- 41:48Speaker 3: Well, I know that you guys talked about this already
- 41:50Speaker 3: on the other shows, but my parting shot is again
- 41:53Speaker 3: farewell to two class guys. Obviously Aaron Glenn moving from
- 41:59Speaker 3: Detroit and the Lions over to the New York Jets,
- 42:03Speaker 3: and then of course Ben Johnson, the offensive coordinator, moving
- 42:07Speaker 3: over to Chicago and the Bears. But that's not it
- 42:10Speaker 3: already gone. Also from the Lions's defensive line coach Terrell Williams,
- 42:15Speaker 3: receivers coach Antoine randelll and JT. Barrett, who's like an
- 42:22Speaker 3: assistant for the quarterbacks coach Mark Brunell, and Mark Mayo too.
- 42:28Speaker 3: There's a lot of there's a lot to be said
- 42:31Speaker 3: about this. It's sad for Lions fans. Okay, it's very sad,
- 42:34Speaker 3: but this isn't something that came unexpectedly. Dan Campbell's been
- 42:39Speaker 3: talking about this to the fans and to the media
- 42:42Speaker 3: and telling this story on how great his assistants are
- 42:45Speaker 3: for several years now, and those guys have held strong
- 42:49Speaker 3: and came back, and they really thought they could do
- 42:51Speaker 3: it this year. Obviously fifteen and two, oh my god,
- 42:55Speaker 3: in the regular season and not making the Super Bowl
- 42:58Speaker 3: was painful. But hey, I don't blame them one bit,
- 43:03Speaker 3: any of these coaches for leaving the Lions. They have
- 43:05Speaker 3: a hell of a program, They had a hell of
- 43:07Speaker 3: a training ground and led by Sheila the owner, and
- 43:12Speaker 3: then you know, the whole staff and the whole culture change.
- 43:15Speaker 3: So farewell. We're going to miss you guys though.
- 43:18Speaker 2: Again.
- 43:18Speaker 3: Good luck in your jobs wherever you go. Jad's especially
- 43:21Speaker 3: in the Bears. Oh no, not good luck to the
- 43:23Speaker 3: Bears their art division.
- 43:29Speaker 1: All right, jab all.
- 43:31Speaker 4: Right, I got I got two for you. So let's
- 43:33Speaker 4: start with Let's start with hal Stivebretner, Little Weasley Rich
- 43:40Speaker 4: stuck up useless disgrace of a son to his father
- 43:45Speaker 4: who spoke with Meredith Markowitz on the S Network complaining
- 43:50Speaker 4: about payroll and how they can't afford it. Meanwhile, his
- 43:53Speaker 4: team is worth seven point five five billion dollars, but
- 43:58Speaker 4: he had the nerve to say, how we stadium is
- 44:06Speaker 4: disgusting and has no life. It's a piece of garbage,
- 44:10Speaker 4: And how your father's rolling over in his grave because
- 44:13Speaker 4: you weren't just a disgrace of a son for the
- 44:15Speaker 4: way you're treating the New York Yankees. Look to Flushing
- 44:19Speaker 4: what Cohen's doing. That's what your dad did, you know?
- 44:23Speaker 4: And when your dad stopped being involved in the day
- 44:26Speaker 4: to day operations and still spent the money we started winning.
- 44:30Speaker 1: Guess what.
- 44:30Speaker 4: We ain't gonna win it against the Dodgers anytime soon
- 44:33Speaker 4: because you don't want to spend money. It's it's a disgrace.
- 44:37Speaker 4: How seven point five to five billion and you don't
- 44:40Speaker 4: want to spend a little bit more. I don't like you.
- 44:44Speaker 4: Let's stay in New York, Let's go to college basketball.
- 44:47Speaker 4: Saint John's Red Storm right fifteenth of the nation. You
- 44:52Speaker 4: know they went to Georgetown, the classic rivalry Saint John's Georgetown.
- 44:57Speaker 4: They last time they played Georgetown was up fifteen the
- 45:00Speaker 4: first half seventeen to two. Saint John's had a great
- 45:03Speaker 4: comeback and won the game at the Garden. Well, last
- 45:06Speaker 4: night they played in DC. What a game, say, John's
- 45:10Speaker 4: went out to a twenty three to three lead, led
- 45:13Speaker 4: by twenty five at the half, ended up winning by
- 45:17Speaker 4: twenty two. If I'm correct, Rick Patito has made his
- 45:20Speaker 4: usual second year jump as this team ready to go.
- 45:24Speaker 4: They're tied for first place in the Big East. A
- 45:27Speaker 4: couple of big games come up with Marquette and Yukon.
- 45:31Speaker 4: There was a four out of the end of the
- 45:34Speaker 4: Big East schedule. It'd be interested to see how they
- 45:37Speaker 4: end up. Patito wants this team to be a number
- 45:40Speaker 4: one seed. They got a lot of work to do
- 45:42Speaker 4: to get there. They're gonna have to win out for
- 45:44Speaker 4: that to happen. But you know, I'll be happy if
- 45:47Speaker 4: they could somehow clinch the Big East crowd and do
- 45:50Speaker 4: all of the Big East tournament and then you know,
- 45:51Speaker 4: make a nice little run in March.
- 45:54Speaker 1: Well done. Well, my party shot got abbreviated by mister Penswan,
- 45:58Speaker 1: who came up with a really good one. So all
- 46:00Speaker 1: I'm gonna do is make Penman look a little smarter,
- 46:03Speaker 1: because up until his most recent suspension, Jimmy Butler had
- 46:09Speaker 1: already lost three million dollars. One can only wonder over
- 46:12Speaker 1: three million this season. That was a nine games. You
- 46:15Speaker 1: only imagine exactly what he's going to have at the
- 46:17Speaker 1: end of the thing. The fact of the matter is,
- 46:19Speaker 1: if pat Riley is a smart guy, he's gonna get
- 46:21Speaker 1: rid of him. It looks like it just seems like
- 46:24Speaker 1: to me the compensation is going to be ten yes
- 46:26Speaker 1: on the dollar. But then again, when you got Jimmy
- 46:30Speaker 1: mister Burniar bridget Butler, what do you expect. All I
- 46:33Speaker 1: can do is if you're in the Eastern Conference, you
- 46:37Speaker 1: just hope they move him to the Western Conference. Jimmy
- 46:39Speaker 1: Butler to me, I don't know any more stops. He
- 46:42Speaker 1: hasn't how many more teams can put up with him.
- 46:44Speaker 1: But calculating up to this point, was over over three
- 46:47Speaker 1: million dollars in suspensions this season. So good room, Jimmy,
- 46:52Speaker 1: whenever that happens. And I know pat Riley will still
- 46:55Speaker 1: get some value for a guy who principally has no
- 46:59Speaker 1: value you at all great children. If by my crew,
- 47:03Speaker 1: I had to have them all back towards my corn.
- 47:06Speaker 1: It's gonna be busy over the next two days. It's
- 47:07Speaker 1: going to have another edition of Sports of Saint tomorrow
- 47:10Speaker 1: and then going to the country club fire up as well.
- 47:13Speaker 1: Davey Ellis seventy two hours, my brother, we're gonna probably
- 47:17Speaker 1: what are you going to be getting into New Orleans?
- 47:19Speaker 4: Uh? I tink eleven o'clock on Sunday.
- 47:23Speaker 1: Okay, I we'll be there on Sunday sometime too. We'll
- 47:26Speaker 1: go as far as his motormouth and take us. And
- 47:29Speaker 1: you know, I've been building up for this a while,
- 47:31Speaker 1: so we just have to get our rental car and
- 47:33Speaker 1: I just have to make sure I have my bear
- 47:35Speaker 1: share of cafe drink so I can be the animal
- 47:37Speaker 1: and the king of the world that I have been
- 47:39Speaker 1: for a while before. Illness has struck me, but I
- 47:41Speaker 1: started to put my illness on the side so we
- 47:44Speaker 1: can do some serious damage, mister Ellis next week, because
- 47:47Speaker 1: I'm looking forward to this project that we're going to
- 47:49Speaker 1: work on, and Sideline forts everybody, and the South Florida

- 47:55Speaker 1: is probably the first of many. So I'm looking forward
- 47:57Speaker 1: to pairing up with my brother JB and doing some stuff.
- 48:00Speaker 1: There will be no programming next week. There might be
- 48:02Speaker 1: a show probably somewhere along the line next week if
- 48:05Speaker 1: we can find a table to inside the picks in.
