3:07
of course, the one dead celebrity that we talk about is Albert Einstein.
3:13
Yes, that's right. Albert Einstein would have had a birthday today with
3:15
you. So you would have been a smart company if your birthday was today.
3:21
So let's go into it. Here we go, NFL free Agency.
3:23
It has been crazy. Let's talk about it all right, Let's go through
3:30
this list of teams and who they've signed and re signed. NFL free agency
3:36
has been crazy, and we're only in day what number two technically, but
3:42
really the tampering started Monday, so actually in four days in already. So
3:46
let's go over this now. Of course you're hearing this at five o'clock,
3:49
but it's recorded earlier in the day. So anything that happened after like ten
3:54
or eleven o'clock in the morning, when the show gets done recording, then
4:00
it'll be on next week's show when we talk about everything that happened and start
4:03
getting ready for the NFL Draft. So here you go. Arizona Cardinals defensive
4:08
tackle Justin Jones got a three year thirty point one million dollar deal. Cornerback
4:15
cornerback Sean Murphy bunting three years twenty five point five million, Linebacker Mack Wilson
4:20
got signed to a three year twelve point seven five million dollar paycheck, offensive
4:27
lineman Tristan Cologne one year, one point seven five million, running back DJ
4:32
Dallas is to be determined with the money, and then offensive lineman Keith Ishmo
4:41
one year, and they don't have the money on there yet. Atlanta Falcons
4:45
big splash and free agency, picking up quarterback Kirk Cousins on a four year,
4:49
one and eighty million dollar deal. That's huge. That's big for the
4:57
Atlanta Falcons. They definitely needed a quarterback. Justin Field's name was being thrown
5:01
out there like he was gonna go there, Bears were gonna trade him there
5:05
and stuff, and it never happened. So we'll talk more about Justin Fields
5:11
in a little bit, but let's go on. Former Chicago Bear Darnell Mooney,
5:15
wide receiver signed a three year, thirty nine million dollar deal with the
5:19
Atlanta Falcons, So that's big for him. He turned out a thirty million
5:25
dollar deal with the Bears. Honestly, I would not be paying Mooney thirty
5:28
nine million for three years. I don't think he's worth that kind of money
5:30
for a guy who had a thousand yard season but then the next year came
5:34
back and was mister butterfingers for the Bears. I honestly don't feel like he
5:40
was deserving of that. So yeah, that's, you know, is what
5:45
it is. Tight end Charlie Warner three years, twelve million dollars and then
5:49
re signed by Atlanta. We have long snapper Liam McCullough, offensive lineman Ryan
5:56
Neuzelm, and linebacker Nate Landminton. Baltimore Ravens picked up a big defensive lineman
6:02
and Justin Melmbuki with a four year, ninety eight million dollar contract. They
6:08
also signed one of the big running backs that I was talking about, Derrick
6:11
Henry, to a two year, sixteen million dollar deal. Now see,
6:15
I feel the Bears. I'm glad that we got DeAndre Swift and I'll talk
6:20
about that in a few minutes, but we could have probably got Dereck Henry
6:24
on a short deal like that two year, sixteen million, eight million a
6:27
year. That's not bad at all. And then they resigned in Baltimore.
6:31
Wide receiver Nelson Agalore resigned with them. Buffalo Bills. They got edge aj
6:40
Espinanza on a two year MAS value of twenty million dollars, Defensive tackle d
6:46
Kwan Jones on a two year sixteen million dollar deal. They re signed or
6:53
brought back, not resigned, but brought back Mitch Trubisky at quarterback on a
6:57
two year, five point two five million dollar deal. Let's see linebacker Nicholas
7:02
Morrow they signed to a one year deal, no disclosure on money yet.
7:08
Offensive tackle Dion Dawkins a three year sixty point five million dollar extension. That's
7:14
a lot for a tackle. Guard David Edwards on a two year extension,
7:18
cornerback Cam Lewis on a two year extension, safety Tyler ramp On a three
7:24
year extension, and wide receiver Mac Collins got a one year deal with no
7:29
money attached to it yet. Let's see Carolina Panthers offensive guard Robert Hunt.
7:34
They way overpaid for this guy. Five years, one hundred million dollars.
7:40
That's a lot of money and a lot of years for an a guard.
7:44
That's ridiculous. And see, this is what I like about polls. He
7:46
does not go crazy with the spending. Everyone's like, oh, the Bear's
7:49
got sixty million dollars. Well, you know what, Why would you want
7:54
to go through all sixty million when you still got the draft and then after
7:58
the draft there's still free agents available, you see what you need at the
8:01
end. Honestly, it's kind of ridiculous. Let's see guard Damian Lewis.
8:05
They signed to a four year, fifty three million dollar deal. In Carolina,
8:11
Defensive tackle A'shawn Robinson three years twenty two point five million. Let's see
8:18
linebacker Josie Jewell three years twenty two point seven five million. Cornerback Troy Hill
8:24
on a one year resign. Long snapper JJ Jansen on a one year resign.
8:31
Wide receiver Deontay Johnson acquired from Steelers in exchange for Dante Jackson and a
8:35
twenty twenty four seventh round pickswap and then cornerback Dame Jackson two years, fourteen
8:43
point five million. My Bears, here we go, got something some stuff
8:48
done. We resigned Jalen Johnson to a four year, seventy six million dollar
8:52
deal after franchise tagging him smart move. We weren't sure if we're going to
8:56
get it done. Got it done, boom years, He's resigned DeAndre Swift.
9:03
He signed a three year, twenty four million dollar deal with the Chicago
9:07
Bears. We got our running back to go with Khalil Herbert and Roshawn Johnson.
9:11
Our running back room is set. We're not gonna have to draft a
9:15
running back now. Offensive lion lineman Ryan Bates we traded for a twenty twenty
9:22
four fifth round pick tight end Gerald Everett. This was huge. This was
9:28
really huge, and I'm glad two years and twelve million to go on the
9:33
other side of col Comet. Now we don't have to go after everybody wanted
9:37
us to go after the big tight end. His name's I think, brock
9:39
Turner. I'm glad we're not going after him now. We can use those
9:45
draft spots for something better. We've got our tight end set. We got
9:48
two of them, actually probably three I think on the roster now, but
9:52
we're only gonna use two most likely. But there you go. We're good
9:56
there. Kevin Barrard two years, fifteen million dollars at safety, and then
10:01
we got safety Jonathan Owens. We signed him to a deal, and as
10:09
everybody knows, Jonathan Owens is now a Bear and he is the husband of
10:15
Simone Biles we mentioned earlier, who's celebrating a birthday today, So congratulations to
10:20
him coming to Chicago from Green Bay. Well, we'll take you here and
10:24
maybe we'll show Sam like they showed Taylor Swift in the audience at the Chiefs
10:30
Games. Let's see. We re signed log Stafford Patrick Scales to a one
10:35
year deal, and we picked up QB Brent Ripen for a one year deal.
10:39
Here too. Let's see, the Cincinnati Bengals have wide receiver t Higgins
10:45
back for one year twenty one point eight million, safety Gino Stone two years
10:50
fifteen million, running back Zach Moss with two years eight million, tight end
10:56
Mike Gazinki one year three point twenty five million. The Cleveland Browns got Jamis
11:03
Winston at quarterback, edge Zadarius Smith had a two year twenty three point five
11:09
million dollar deal, in linebacker Jordan Hicks two years eight million dollars. Nothing
11:16
really major out of Dallas. They just resigned their long Stamford Trent Seg to
11:20
a one year deal and linebacker Eric Kendricks to a one year deal. Denver
11:24
Broncos brought in safety PJ. Lock on a two year, seven million dollar
11:31
deal and re signed kicker Will Lutz. Also wide receiver will Jordan Humphrey,
11:37
they resigned him to a contract. Let's see. Detroit Lions picked up guard
11:43
Graham Glasgow on a three year twenty million dollar deal, cornerback a Meek Robinson
11:48
to a two year nine point two five million dollar deal, and edge Marcus
11:54
Davenport on a one year deal. Now I'm not naming every single player because
11:58
it would take forever. We're just gonna go over like the main names,
12:03
and some little ones too. Green Bay Packers did pick up a big safety
12:07
in Xavier McKinney four year, sixty eight million dollars. They got running back
12:13
Josh Jacobs on a four year, forty eight million dollar deal. His name
12:16
was brought up for the Bears possibly too during free agent frenzy. He ended
12:22
up going to the Packers, so now they got a big running back.
12:24
I really would love to see a Packers Bears rivalry that means something again.
12:30
And what I mean by mean something is where we don't know who's gonna win
12:35
from game to game. It could be either team, but we still say,
12:39
oh, our team's gonna win, but you don't know. Inside you're
12:41
like, oh, it could be either or I want one of those again.
12:46
Then they also got cornerback Cassan Nixon on a three year, eighteen million
12:50
dollar deal. Houston Texans got a trade from the Bengals. Running back Joe
12:56
Mixon is now a Houston Texan. They also picked up tight end Dalton Schultz

13:07
who the Bears I was hoping was gonna Get on a two year forty nine
13:09
million dollar deal, cornerback Mike Ford on a two year four point five million
13:16
dollar deal. And then the Indianapolis Colts. Michael Pittman Junior is there for
13:22

defensive lineman payday cornerback Lagerius Snead on a one year nineteen point eight million dollar
14:20

15:30

point five million dollar deal, edge Andrew van Gilkin on two years twenty million.
15:58
They also picked up Sam Darnold after losing Kirk Cousins, on a one
16:02
year ten million dollar deal. Running Back Aaron Jones is there for one year,
16:06
seven million dollars. Leggings are gonna be a little bigger this year.
16:11
I think I'm not sure how Sam Darnold's gonna do there. But when you
16:15
got Aaron Jones and then you pick up a you know, some million Aaron
16:21
Jones, that's big for them. You know, that's a big running back.
16:26
So we'll see what they do. New England Patriots signed quarterback Jakobe Briskett
16:30
on a one year eight million dollar deal, Antonio Gibson running back on three
16:36
years eleven point two five million, tight end Austin Hooper on one year four
16:41

Junior on a one year five million dollar contract. New York Giants picked up
16:57
Drew Locke on a one year five million dollar deal, running back Devin Singletary
17:02
to be determined, offensive tackle Jermaine Ullamore on a two year fourteen million dollar
17:07

Deontay Johnson and a twenty twenty four seventh round pickswap Dante Jackson. They also
18:06
signed QB Russell Wilson to a one year deal and linebacker Patrick Queen on three
18:12
years forty one million dollars. So Russell Wilson on a one year deal.
18:18
There you go, very easy deal for him. See where he wants to
18:21
go next year. Maybe he'll stay and sign a longer deal, maybe he'll
18:25
retire. Who knows. San Francisco Edge Leonard Floyd former Bear on a two
18:30
year twenty four million dollar deal. George Odom on a two year ten million
18:36
dollar deal. Let's see. Seattle Seahawks picked up defensive lineman Leonard Williams on
18:42
a three year sixty four point five million dollar deal. Let's see. Tampa
18:48
Bay Buccaneers picked up Baker Mayfield on a three year, one and fifteen million
18:52
dollar contract. They kept wide receiver Mike Evans on a two year fifty two
18:57
million dollar deal and Chase McLaughlin their kicker three years twelve point three million.
19:06
Tennessee Titans picked up Tony Pollard on a three year twenty four million dollar deal.
19:11
At running back, offensive lineman Lloyd Cushionberry and a four year fifty million
19:17
dollar deal. Washington commanders. They made a lot of move so far.
19:23
Defensive end Durance Armstrong at three years forty five million, linebacker Frankie Louve at
19:32
three years thirty six million, running back Austin Eckler at two years eleven point
19:38
four to three million. They signed quarterback Marcus Mariota to a one year six
19:44
million dollar deal, tight end zach Ertz to a one year five million dollar
19:48
deal. They got guard Nick Alajari at three year sixteen million, and kicker
19:55
Brian McManus they signed him to a one year three point six million dollar contract.
20:00
Now, obviously, you see out of Washington they did pick up a
20:03
quarterback in Marcus Mariota, but most likely as a backup to whatever he may
20:07
start, and have whatever rookie they draft at their spot to get to sit
20:15
behind and train the right way like you should do. Washington and New England,
20:21
neither one of them made any big quarterback moves for a starter yet or
20:23
for anybody. They're still gonna be looking for a rookie quarterback. So we'll
20:29
see what the Bears decided to do justin fields as of right now. Let's
20:33
see, let me look him up really quick. Let's see He's still a
20:34
Bear as of right now, he is still a Bear. Oh and Khalil
20:38
Mack is restructuring his contract so he can stay with the San Diego Chargers.
20:45
As of now, Nick Boza still has not done that yet. So and
20:49
he still hasn't been released, but he could be released by Friday if they
20:52
decide not to keep him. Let's see, So Justin Fields right now still
20:57
the Chicago Bears. So he's still with the Bears as now. They did
21:04
say if they were gonna trade Justin Fields, it was gonna be by the
21:11
free agency. We're here, we're straight in the thicket a free agency.
21:17
He is still a Chicago Bear right now. So we will see what Poles
21:22
has in mind with the number one draft pick. You know, are we
21:26
gonna keep Fields? Are we gonna bring in a rookie? Are we gonna
21:30
do both? You know? Are we gonna bring in a rookie and keep
21:34
Justin Fields? And see, now here's a scenario that I heard. I'm
21:40
not a huge fan of this. I either want Justin Fields or I want
21:45
to bring in like a Caleb Williams, because there's no point of having both.
21:48
Okay, I mean, I get where people are saying. But if
21:52
you don't feel that Justin Fields is that great of a quarterback to the point
21:56
you want to trade him, why would you want him molding the next quarterback
22:00
in here? That makes zero sense. You bring in somebody like an Aaron
22:06
Rodgers to Jordan Love brought Farrees Aaron Rodgers. You know, I mean Brady
22:14
had his you know, I mean, you gotta do that, and that's
22:18
how you do it. But obviously we're not gonna be doing that. We're
22:19
gonna throw the rookie right in there, or we're gonna have Justin Fields in
22:23
there. We'll see what happens. There's still a lot of time left and
22:29
a trade can happen for Justin Fields at any time. There is the possibility
22:33
that they're gonna keep him till the trade deadline and then see if anybody gets
22:38
hurt and then they can trade them for a bigger value because the team's gonna
22:42
need a starting quarterback right away, especially if guys go down with injuries.
22:48
So we'll see what happens. Very interesting free agents frenzy going on right now,
22:53
and next week I will have probably more free agents because obviously this whole
23:02
weekend free agents are still gonna sign. There's still some notable ones out there.
23:07
Let's see who those are. So here's the top free agents that are
23:12
still left now. No, this was as of yesterday, so some of
23:18
these guys may be taken already, but these were the ones that were left
23:22
as of yesterday. Bronco's safety Justin Simmons is still a free agent. Cowboys
23:29
offensive tackle Tyron Smith. Forty nine Ers defensive end Chase Young is still out
23:34
there. Jaguars wide receiver Calvin Ridley has already signed as of yesterday, so
23:41
he's not on there no more. Cardinals wide receiver mcqueethe Brown is still out
23:48
there. Forty nine Ers defensive lineman Eric Armstead, Commander's cornerback Kendall Fuller still
23:56
hasn't signed with anybody. Cowboys cornerback Stefan Gilmour, Bucaneer's linebacker Devin White,
24:04
defensive end Giovanna Clowney from the Ravens. He's still out there. Bengals Detstraw
24:14
defensive tackle DJ Reader is still out there. Seahawks linebacker Bobby Wagner is still
24:21
left out there. Let's see corner Xavian Howard from the Dolphins is still a
24:30
free agent right now. Let's see, linebacker Eric Kendricks is still out there,
24:37
so wide receiver Curtis Samuel is still out there too. So these are
24:44
still some notable names that are still out there in free agency. And don't
24:48
forget they can still release up until I believe Friday, so there could be
24:52
some people that become free agents in the next day and a half. So,
24:56
I mean, it's a crazy time out there for the nf But the
25:00
NFL is getting a lot of signings. It's been really good so far,
25:04
very exciting. The running back room has been crazy right now. I mean
25:08
you've had guys going all over Derrick Henry, Sequan Barkley, DeAndre Swift.
25:15
I mean, we've had a lot of running backs go different places. Josh
25:19
Jacobs so, I mean, and they're spread out, they didn't go back
25:23
to their teams. DeAndre Swift is a Bear now, you know. I'm
25:29
excited to have him here with our running backs. I think it's gonna be
25:33
a great season for them. I think the Bears are gonna have a good
25:36
one. I'm a little concerned still, you know, with our quarterback situation.
25:42
I would like to know earlier than the draft if the Bears are keeping
25:48
that pick or not, but we'll see what happens. We'll talk more about
25:52
the draft coming up in the next few weeks. Let's go into wrestling now.
25:56
Let's move in to the ww wrestle Mania forty match card as of right
26:02
now. I read off some last week and we have grown since then.
26:08
Last week it was made official. Cody Roads and Seth Rollins on Night one
26:12
will face The Rock and Roman Reigns in Bloodline rules. What Bloodline rules means
26:18
is this? The Rock explained it. If Cody Roads and Seth Rollins win,
26:25
they will sign a contract that says the Bloodline is barred from ringside,
26:30
none of them are allowed down there. Cody Rhods will have a shot at
26:34
finishing his story with a clean win with nobody interfering. If the Rock and
26:41
Roman Reigns win, which I feel this is gonna happen, it's Bloodline rules,
26:45
which means that all of them can be down there. Anything goes,
26:51
no rules. They can interfere any time they want. But on the flip
26:56
side, does that mean anybody can interfere on Cody's bad. We'll see what
27:00
happens there. So yeah, that's Night one that's gonna most likely be towards
27:07
the main event. I don't know if it'll main event, but it'll be
27:10
like maybe second to last match of the night, kind of like the Rock
27:12
and Hogan did at wrestle Maania eighteen. They didn't main event it, but
27:17
they were there. I really feel that the SmackDown Women's Championship match will headline
27:23
WrestleMania Night one. Let's see, and that's Night one so far. Night
27:32
two now, I don't know if this is like official yet. I haven't
27:36
heard any official word on the other matches. This is a definitely official match
27:41
though for Night too undisputed WWE Universal Championship, Roman Reigns versus Cody Rhodes.
27:48
We know that made events Night two of the own match, so we'll see
27:51
what happens there. And here we go, World, have you aight Championship
27:56
seth Rollins, who will be doing double duty just like Roman Reigns and Cod
28:00
versus Drew McIntyre. And then Dad says night too also, so it looks
28:07
like we're gonna have two night two world championships. We're gonna have both men's
28:15
championships on the same night, which makes sense. They're not gonna have South
28:18
Rollins Russell on Night one both nights, So yeah, he'll do one or
28:22
the other. But yeah, so and here's twenty twenty four WW WrestleMania forty
28:29
matches without a confirmed date. Eo Sky putting her Women's Championship Online versus Bailey.
28:36
I have a feeling that's gonna main event Night one. That's what I
28:38
feel is gonna happen. Women's World Championship, Rio Ripley versus Becky Lynch.
28:45
Now, I have a feeling both women's titles are gonna be on the line
28:48
night one and then both men's on Night two. I think that's how they're
28:52
gonna do it. So I could see maybe have Real Ripley and Becky Lynch
28:59
open the show, or you could possibly have Rock. Now imagine this Rock
29:03
and Roman versus Seth and Cody opening up Night one would be an amazing way.
29:14
What a banger of a match to put in the in the opening card
29:17
of the match, that's gonna get the crowd into it and ready for the
29:21
night. Could happen. But we could also see the opening match be Ria
29:25
Ripley versus Becky Lynch on Night one. Intercondinental Championship. Sammy Zain won six
29:32
Pack Challenge on Raw. He will challenge Gunther. I still have a feeling
29:37
that we could see Chad Gable added into that match. I still see that
29:41
possibly happening to make it a triple threat, but we don't know yet.
29:47
Undisputed. This was announced an undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship. Judgment Day will
29:55
face five other tag teams in a six pack ladder match. Unbelievable. That
30:04
is six teams, twelve men in the ring in a ladder match. That's
30:12
gonna be insane. Let's see so it says right here at the Judgment team
30:19
have their plates full. Row General Manager Anam Pearson SmackDown General manager Nick Allus
30:23
announced a six pack ladder match for the tag team titles at WrestleMania. Forty
30:29
three Row teams and two SmackDown teams will qualify for the match in the coming
30:33
weeks. The tag team qualifiers scheduled for the March eighteenth episode of Raw are
30:38
New Day versus Alpha Academy, which is Otis and Otis and Eric go Tozawa.
30:45
Now do you see that? I don't see Chad Gable in that match,
30:49
So that's why I'm thinking he could be added. If they're I don't
30:52
think then they're gonna beat the New Day though. But if that happens,
30:57
I can see Chad Gable going into the Intercontinental match and then DEI Y versus
31:04
the Creed Brothers and Awesome Truth versus in this year, So that's crazy.
31:11
Jimmy usso at Jay Uso. Jay Uso called him out. He hasn't said
31:15
anything yet. He may respond tonight on or tomorrow night on SmackDown. We'll
31:21
see. Maybe he comes to Raw to meet Jay face to face, so
31:26
we'll see what happens there, but that's most likely gonna be a match.
31:30
United States Championship still no Quanton, still no confirmed on this, but it
31:36
looks like it's gonna happen. Logan Paul will put his United States Championship online
31:40
and against Randy Orton and La Knight has already called out aj Styles, So
31:45
we're looking to see if that happens. So as of now, we've got
31:48
one, two, three matches not confirmed. Then we've got four, five,
31:59
six, seven, eight, nine ten matches. That's ten matches so
32:08
far that are confirmed or not confirmed. But you know all those are gonna
32:13
happen. So WrestleMania is gonna be big. We'll be talking about that in
32:16
the next few weeks because you know, we're only like, what three weeks
32:20
away from WrestleMania from this weekend. Uh you got let's see this weekend.
32:25
You got next weekend the weekend after, so about four weeks away. We're
32:29
about a month away from WrestleMania. It's gonna be huge. We still got
32:34
matches yet to be called. We're gonna see what happens there. Uh,
32:37
sports wise, let's see what else can we talk about really quick before we
32:40
go into the entertainment section. In Chicago, White Sox news, the Socks
32:46
traded pitcher right hander Dylan Ceased to the San Diego Padres for right hander Drew
32:54
Thorpe, who is the number four ring prospect in the Padres system and numbers
33:00
sixty four among ESPN's top one hundred MLB prospects. They also got a right
33:07
hander Giro Aronte, the number seven prospect among San Diego's minor leaguers, and
33:14
alfielder Samuel Zavala and right hander Steven will Stephan Wilson. So yeah, White
33:20
Sox made a trade, got rid of the twenty eight year old who was
33:23
the runner up for the American League Cy Young Award Winner award in twenty twenty
33:30
two. Sad, I'm not happy with the Socks, and this is why
33:37
I feel like they struggle every year. You know, they got rid of
33:44
Tim Anderson, Jose Abrau, Dylan Cease is gone. What do we got?
33:51
We got prospects, but it's gonna take years to build it. And
33:54
I've been saying this for years. Jerry Reinsdorf, it's time for him to
33:59
solve the team and retire. Sell both teams, Sell the Bulls, sell
34:02
the White Socks, and just move on because it's just been constant, just
34:08
crap for decades for both teams. Socks haven't been relevant since two thousand and
34:14
five pretty much when they won. And of course, you know the Bulls,
34:21
when's the last time they were really relevant during Derreck Row's little run,
34:24
but before that, not since the nineties. So yeah, that's what I
34:28
would think. With that, nothing else really sports wise to talk about.
34:31
Bulls beat the Pacers the other night one thirty two to one twenty nine.
34:37
Bulls are still sitting in the number. Let's see they're sitting right now,
34:43
in the number nine spot, which would be a playing tournament game at thirty
34:47
two and thirty four, so almost have five hundred. They beat the Pacers
34:52
the other night, who are thirty seven and thirty in the number seven spot.
34:54
So we keep winning, we still have a chance to move up.
34:58
Obviously, we're nineteen and a half games back from first place with the Celtics,
35:04
but we're really only uh three games three and a half games back from
35:08
the heat for the eighth spot, for number seventh spot and number six spot,
35:15
we are only four and a half games out, so we really still
35:19
have a shot. There's still a little time left. They don't until like
35:23
what middle of April, like towards the end of April. She still got
35:27
about another month left of the season. So yeah, I mean right now
35:35
there, let's see thirty two and thirty four, so there are sixty four
35:38
games in. They got eighteen games left. You're sitting at a spot right
35:44
now where you're only four and a half back from the number six spot.
35:47
If you get out of number seven, if you get into number six,
35:51
you don't have to play the playing tournament, so that's even better. You
35:57
know. Obviously, seven, eight, nine, and ten they play the
36:00
play in tournament now. So yeah, if I mean, if you're the
36:04
Bulls, you aim for that number six spot. Now Philadelphia is in there
36:07
at thirty six and twenty nine, Bulls would really have to move up seventy
36:10
six, Yers would have to struggle. If I'm the Bulls, I you
36:15
know, obviously, I think we're gonna make the play in tournament because right
36:19
now we're three and a half games ahead of Atlanta. As long as we
36:22
keep winning some of these games, we'll get that spot, and that would
36:25
put us at a home game, I believe, is it seven, eight,
36:30
nine, and ten they play each other. I don't know how that
36:30
works. We'll see. We'll talk about that more towards the end of the
36:34
NBA season. Right now, let's look at the standings. Number one in
36:37
the league is the Boston Celtics and the Eastern Conference at fifty one and fourteen.
36:43
Number two Cleveland at forty two and twenty four. Number three is the
36:46
Milwaukee Bucks at forty two and twenty four. Number four is the New York
36:52
Knicks at thirty eight and twenty seven. Number five is the Orlando Magic at
36:58
thirty and twenty eight. Let's see seventy six Ers are six at thirty six
37:01
and twenty nine. Indiana Pacers are number seven at thirty seven and thirty and
37:07
the Miami Heater are thirty five and thirty at number eight. Playing tournament teams
37:12
will be seven, eight, nine, and ten. The Bulls are thirty
37:14
two and thirty four, and the Atlanta Hawks are twenty nine and thirty six
37:17
at number ten. In the the Western Conference, the Denver Nuggets forty six
37:22
and twenty at number one. Number two is the Oklahoma City Thunder at forty
37:29
five and twenty Minnesota Timberwolves at forty five and twenty one at number three.
37:35
The LA Clippers are forty one and twenty three and number four. Pelicans are
37:39
number five at thirty nine and twenty six, Sacramento Kings thirty and twenty seven
37:45
at number six number seven. Here's the play in tournament teams thirty and twenty
37:51
seven for the Suns at number seven, the Mavericks at number thirty eight or
37:57
number eight, sorre you at thirty and twenty eight five games above five hundred
38:01
and at thirty six and thirty one in the number nine spot. Not good,
38:06
not good at all, and then and check this out. The Golden
38:08
State Warriors are number ten right now at thirty four and thirty one, worst
38:14
team in the NBA, and the West is the Spurs with a fourteen and
38:19
fifty two record in the West, and then the East is the Wizards at
38:22
eleven and fifty four. So really bad, really really bad for those teams.
38:29
So let's move on. Let's talk a little entertainment news before we get
38:34
out of here. We got a few topics to talk about. Let's do
38:36
it. So, as everybody knows, we are going to go over the
38:39
winners of the Oscar Awards. But what people did not know was that there
38:44

42:32

42:43

42:46

46:20
and Jimmy Kimmel came right back without a these even being rowed down when right
46:24
back and said, isn't a pasture jail time? That was amazing. That
46:30
was awesome. If you haven't seen it, go check out Jimmy Kimmel Oscars.
46:32
You could see his opening and then you could see that too. So
46:36
two big award shows were that weekend. We had the Oscars and the iHeartRadio
46:40
Music Festival not Music Festival Podcast Awards. Who's coming back to Scream seven?
46:49
Everybody's excited? She did it. Nev Campbell is coming back. We will
46:53
see Sidney Prescott back in Scream seven. She posted on her Instagram with the
47:00
script as her picture with her name on it and here it goes. She
47:06
said, Hi all, I'm so excited to announce this new Sidney Prescott is
47:09
coming back. It's always been such a blast and an honor to get to
47:14
play Sidney in the Scream movies. My appreciation for these films and for what
47:17
they have meant to me has never waned. I'm very happy and proud to
47:22
say I've been asked in the most respectful way to bring Sidney back to the
47:24
screen and I couldn't be more thrilled. Well, actually I could. While
47:30
I've been so incredibly lucky to make these films with both the master of horror
47:34
Wes Craven and the wonderfully talent in Matton Tyler team. I've dreamed for many
47:39
years of how amazing it would be to make one of these movies with Kevin
47:43
Williamson at the helm, and now it's happening. Kevin Williamson is going to
47:47
direct Scream seven. This was his baby and it's a brilliant mind that dumped
47:52
up this world. Kevin is not just an inspiration as an artist, but
47:55
has been a dear friend for many years. It's an amazing Scream fan.
48:00
I hope you are excited as I am. See you on the set.
48:02
So yes, Neph Campbell is back as Sidney Prescott after taking a one year
48:07
hiatus during Scream six. So I'm excited to have her back. I think
48:12
all horror film people are excited to have her back. I mean, it
48:15
doesn't feel like Scream without her. The last one was good. I enjoyed
48:20
it. Johnna Ortago was good in it, but really it is Sidney Prescott's
48:24
show, So I'm excited for that. Who else is excited? Let me
48:28
know in the comments and stuff. We'll talk about that. Let's go into
48:32
our next topic. We're gonna talk about the eclipse. That's right, the
48:37
eclipse is here, and here is some things to know about what to do
48:45
during the eclipse. So everybody wants to know when is the eclipse happening?
48:50
April eighth is when you will be able to see it. Let's see what's
48:53
gonna last. It's going to be the last total solar eclipse that we will
48:58
see for the next twenty years. That's crazy. So twenty years from now
49:04
I'm forty three, I'll be sixty three next time there is a total eclipse.
49:08
That is an amazing, amazing thought. So here is some tips on
49:15
what to do during the eclipse. Obviously, let me look at these tips
49:22
really quick. I gotta make sure. Hang on one second. There's only
49:29
a couple tips with this number. One, do not look straight at it.
49:32
It can damage your eyes and make you go actually blind. From what
49:36
I heard, I don't know if that's true or not. I've never done
49:37
it. There's special glasses that you can buy in the stores and that so
49:44
you'll be able to look up at it and see what it looks like.
49:47
But yeah, never look straight up at the sun. Also, if you
49:52
want to view it in the best areas, look up the best area to
49:57
view it in your state, and if you're gonna go to wherever this area
50:01
is because you'll be able to see it everywhere. But there's better viewing spots
50:06
everywhere in a state, So if you want to see where that is,
50:09
then go look it up and go early, because if you want to see
50:15
this, some people stay overnight at hotels so they could see this entire thing.
50:20
Do it in advance. There's also places that you can go, like
50:24
science museums that have stuff and they'll probably be doing events for it, so
50:31
go look that up because if you don't do it soon, you'll never get
50:35
in a lot of those places do limited seating for things like that, so
50:38
make sure that you do that. This is something that you're not gonna see
50:43
for another twenty years, so make sure you enjoy it because who knows who's
50:45
gonna be here in twenty years, honestly, So I mean enjoy it will
50:50
it's here, because it could be gone before you know it and you'll never
50:54
see it again. So definitely make sure you check that out. I'm excited
50:59
for that. Now we're gonna talk a little bit about Lollapalooza twenty twenty four.
51:06
Next Tuesday, they are gonna announce the full lineup, so I will
51:08
have that next week on my show. But here's rumors and lineup predictions for
51:15
this year's twenty twenty four And the way that they compile this list of possible
51:20
artists is by rumor mills that go around and other Lallapaloozas. We don't have
51:25
the only Loalla Paloza in Chicago. There's Lollapalue, there's a few other ones,
51:30
So sometimes they compile this list from other ones too, So here is
51:35
a list of some artists that they think could be coming through Chicago. Number
51:39
one Blank probability pass Lalla's they did in twenty seventeen, it says. In
51:49
twenty twenty two, original Blank twenty two front man Tom DeLong rejoined the band,
51:53
reuniting the original lineup alongside drummer Travis Barker and bassist Mark Hoppis. Since
52:00
then, the punk trio has put out a new record One More Time and
52:05
embarked on a series of arena tours. The latest string of twenty twenty four
52:08
dates includes just about every major US city except for Chicago. The suspicious gap
52:15
between shows in Indianapolis and Minnesota that falls over the weekend can only mean that
52:21
Blink is headed to Graham Park. Now. It's funny because when Blink announced
52:25
their tour, Chicago was left off that Now everybody knows, and I don't
52:30
care what people say about Chicago. This is one of the favorite cities of
52:34
almost every band and every sporting event. Wrestlers love coming here, musicians love
52:40
coming to Chicago, DJs love coming to Chicago. We are one of the
52:45
meccas of events, so for us to be left off of that is a
52:51
very strange and very odd. They are going to be in Indiana a few
52:54
days before that weekend and then in Minnesota right after that weekend, so they're
53:00
open that Friday. I believe in Saturday, there you go. I believe
53:06
that one of the days you're gonna see Blank. One. Sizza probability ninety
53:12
five percent past Lala's In twenty fifteen, R and B singer songwriter Sizza headlined
53:17
in the United Center twice in twenty twenty three her expansive SOS tour, and
53:22
now she's moving on to the summer festival circuit. The kill Bill singer is
53:27
already confirmed at all three South American La Llapaluza festivals in March, plus a
53:31
headlining set in New York City's Governor's Ball. In June. She's playing Sunday
53:37
Night at Oshaka in Montreal, but her schedule is cleared during the three days
53:42
of Lalla, so there you go. Sizza most likely will be on the
53:45
list too, Justice ninety percent probability past Lala's twenty twelve and twenty seventeen Let's
53:54
see Renee Rap Mean Girls star Renee Rap any time for media training. This
54:01
summer, she's hitting just about every major event on the festival circuit, including
54:06
Coachella, Bonaru, Boston Calling, and Governor's Ball. Also on the Not
54:12
My Fault singer's itinerary a Saturday set in O'shanga, Montreal, which places are
54:16
close enough to Chicago that we could expect to see her performing inoffensive pop from
54:22
her twenty twenty three debut Snow angel A Lala. She's an eighty five percent
54:28
probability. Never been here before. Joseer, He's a probability of eighty percent.
54:34
He's been here twice twenty fourteen and twenty nineteen, he'll be in the
54:37
area. Let's see. Martin Garrix probability seventy percent. He's been here in
54:46
twenty fourteen and twenty sixteen. Like most DJs, he's gonna be having a
54:52
busy summer ahead of him, bouncing between sets in Las Vegas on Abiza,
54:58
but he is making time for the weekend of festival dates in Canada that coo
55:01
side with Lallapalooza, So a lot of them are going to be in Canada,
55:06
which is right near not far from Chicago if you think about it.
55:10
What a quick, like sevent eight hour drive. So yeah, we could
55:14
see him. Doljacat sixty percent possibility. She had her past Lalla canceled in
55:20
twenty twenty three. Doljacat was set to perform at Lala in twenty twenty two,
55:24
but was forced to cancel the gig to recover from a merger emergency tonsile
55:29
surgery. So there you go, she might be here. Marshmallow, he's
55:35
fifty five percent probability. He's been here in twenty sixteen and twenty twenty one.
55:40
Marshmallow is coming to Chicago in early April, but he's performing a special
55:45
duo set along dumb stup producers spending sudden deaths, so he could be here
55:52
for Lalla. We'll see the Killers. They're a fifty percent probability. They've
55:58
been here four times five oh nine, thirteen, and twenty seventeen. Uh,
56:04
so we might see the Killers show up on there. Let's see Post
56:13
Malone. He's a forty percent probability. He was just here a couple of
56:16
years ago. We know Post he loves Chicago, so he may come.
56:21
Casey Mugraves, she's a zero percent probability. She was here in twenty nineteen.
56:25
But I guess people love the rumor mill with her, so they put
56:29
her on there. And that's it. So those are some. We will
56:32
find out the official lineup on Tuesday, so I will have that next week
56:37
on my show. I'm not sure if I'm recording it Thursday or Friday next
56:42
week, but I'll have the full lineup for you by then. And now,
56:46
let's see one last thing I wanted to talk about. It is Saint
56:51
Patty's Day weekend. And what would Saint Patty's Day weekend be without some little
56:55
bit of fun facts about the holiday. For all you say, these day
57:00
lovers like me, so let's do it. Let's see ten Saint Patrick's Day
57:06
facts you never knew before. You might know some of these. Saint Patrick
57:10
was actually British, although he's one of Ireland's most celebrated figures. Patrick was
57:16
born around the year thirty three ninety and what is now England, Scotland or
57:21
Wales. His real name was Mawen Saccat. Yes, you read that correctly.
57:28
Maya Saccatt was his name until he changed it to Patrick when he became
57:32
a bishop. March seventeenth is not Saint Patrick's birthday. Saint Patrick's Day observes.
57:39
Observers who might have thought that they were celebrating the saint's birthday will be
57:44
surprised to learn that March seventeenth, four sixty one a d Is actually the
57:49
day he died. So we're not celebrating Saint Patrick's birth, we're celebrating his
57:52
death. A lot of people didn't know that. Happy. Let's see the
58:00
first Saint Patrick's Day parade happened in America, not Ireland. This is interesting
58:04
this fact. The first prey took place in New York City in seventeen sixty
58:08
two. With an increase of Irish immigrants entering the United States, Saint Patrick's
58:13
Day quickly became a widespread holiday. According to Metro New York, approximately one
58:17
hundred and fifty thousand people generally participate in the New York City Parade each year,
58:22
and around two million people come out to watch. Saint Patrick has no
58:28
Snakes to vanish. Legend says that Saint Patrick drove Ireland snakes into the sea,
58:32
purging the land of all evil. However, research contradicts this tale,
58:37
indicating that snakes never inhabitated the Emerald Isle, as the entire island was once
58:45
covered in ice and there were no fossil evidence of snakes in the region.
58:49
It used to be a dry holiday, man. This will mess up all
58:52
you drinkers that go out on Saint Patty's Day. Saint Patrick's Day was considered
58:59
a religious holiday in Ireland for most of the twentieth century, so all pubs
59:02
would clothes on March seventeenth. Once it became a national holiday in nineteen seventy,
59:07
everything changed and pubs became a go to spot for many to celebrate.
59:13
And we've all done it. I've been out on it too. In fact,
59:15
I'll be drinking on Sunday, but at home having fun at my house,
59:21
everyone should be wearing blue now green Blue was actually the color that was
59:25
most associated with Patrick, and green was considered unlucky. Blue is still considered
59:30
symbolic of Ireland. So how did green become to go to Hugh for those
59:36
who didn't want to get pinched? Historically, green has been the color that's
59:39
been linked to a series of Irish rebellions that took place in order to gain
59:45
independence from the English crown. The color stuck once waves of Irish immigrants made
59:51
their home in America and began wearing green and carrying the Irish flag to show
59:55
their pride for their home country. The sham was not originally used as a
1:00:01
teaching tool. Many believe that Saint Patrick used the three leaf clover to teach
1:00:07
others about the Christian Holy Trinity, the Father, the Son, and the
1:00:09
Holy Spirit, but that hasn't been proven to be true. However, the
1:00:14
number three was a sacred number in Irish mythology, so it does make sense
1:00:19
for the shamrock to hold that connection to the Holy Trinity. There are no
1:00:23
female Eprekaans, ever, wonder why you've never seen a lady leprechaun. The
1:00:29
answer is they don't exist. There has been no record of female leprechauns.
1:00:34
And what's even more interesting is that lebricauns are considered to be part of the
1:00:39
fairy family. Some have even said that the Lebrikaans are the rejected fairies who
1:00:45
have been ousted by the fairy community, which explains why they're usually described as
1:00:50
grouchy creatures prone to mischief. Corn beef and cabbage is an American invention.
1:00:55
Yes, it's true. The classic Saint Patrick's Day dish made chop meat,
1:01:00
potatoes and fried onions didn't originate in Ireland at all. Well, him and
1:01:05
cabbage were traditional Irish fair corn beef became a more affordable alternative for Irish Americans.
1:01:13
And here's a fun fact. Despite the name, there's no corn and
1:01:15
corned beef. The term corn actually refers to the sizeable grains of salt historically
1:01:22
used to cure meats known as corns. So there you have it. There's
1:01:25
some fun facts about Saint Patrick's Day, and that is this weekend. If
1:01:29
you're going out, be careful out there. It's gonna be a crazy one,
1:01:31
just like always. NFL's on a Sunday, so people are gonna be
1:01:36
drinking probably from Saturday at midnight all the way till the end of Sunday night.
1:01:39
So make sure you go out there and have fun, but do it
1:01:43
responsibly. Here's my top ten list. I want to give a big shout
1:01:46
out to my buddy corey' z Aalinka, who I went to high school with.

1:03:55

1:04:03
favorite one, So let me know what your favorites are. I'm gonna do

1:04:17

1:05:02
please drink responsibly. Don't go out there and drink a drive. Don't end
1:05:08
somebody's life over a party. It's not worth it, and it's not worth
1:05:11
the tiend of your life either over that. So have fun, go out

there and have a good time, but do it safe. You drink,
