- 0:26Speaker 2: eight minutes to forty minute games. How does that sound

- 0:40Speaker 2: that he has not received one of those hokey tribute
- 0:42Speaker 2: videos from his original team, the Indiana Pacers. What is
- 0:47Speaker 2: your position on that? And unemployed slugger Pete Alonzo, known
- 0:52Speaker 2: as the Polar Bear, has stood by his guy Scott Boris,
- 0:57Speaker 2: his agent, saying that he will not talk to new
- 1:01Speaker 2: agents amid his unemployment in MLB free agency. What does
- 1:05Speaker 2: all that mean? We'll go there as well. And here

- 2:27Speaker 2: So the rare and appropriate malarmnologue on pro bouncy Ball.
- 2:32Speaker 1: We'll start with that.
- 2:32Speaker 2: We'll get back to the football conversation as we are
- 2:35Speaker 2: in the silent before things get cranked up. Super Bowl
- 2:39Speaker 2: Week a few days away Kansas City and Philadelphia for
- 2:44Speaker 2: the World Championship. But our lead this hour is from
- 2:48Speaker 2: pro bouncy Ball, and we go where these sporting news
- 2:52Speaker 2: of the day takes us on a nuby night. By
- 2:53Speaker 2: the way, it is an uby night. It is an
- 2:55Speaker 2: uby night.
- 2:56Speaker 1: So that would be.
- 2:57Speaker 2: For this malamanologue, we go where this Stories of the
- 3:00Speaker 2: Day take us, that would be do six forty five
- 3:03Speaker 2: Fifth Avenue in Midtown Manhattan. Now, last time I was
- 3:07Speaker 2: in the city, my brother lives there, so I visited
- 3:08Speaker 2: him like a year and a half ago, I think
- 3:11Speaker 2: it was, and I couldn't sleep because I don't sleep
- 3:14Speaker 2: well in hotels. So it was like two in the morning,
- 3:18Speaker 2: and I left my hotel and I just walked around
- 3:23Speaker 2: Manhattan and within about three blocks the NFL headquarters and
- 3:31Speaker 2: Major League Baseball they're on Park Avenue, and then the
- 3:34Speaker 2: NBA is on Fifth Avenue, which is like right next door.
- 3:37Speaker 2: They're all within and the NHL's got offices there, and
- 3:40Speaker 2: they're all within a couple of miles, not even a
- 3:42Speaker 2: couple of blocks, right there in Manhattan. So I did
- 3:46Speaker 2: walk by the Manhattan headquarters there of the NBA. They
- 3:51Speaker 2: have a big store right there. Of course they do
- 3:54Speaker 2: trying to sell some merch absolutely. But Adam Silver, he's
- 3:58Speaker 2: got a plan. Adam Silver's got a vision to reinvent
- 4:03Speaker 2: the NBA, and he actually revealed the vision right here
- 4:06Speaker 2: on Fox Sports radio.
- 4:08Speaker 4: No.
- 4:08Speaker 1: I don't know if you were listening or not. Maybe not,
- 4:10Speaker 1: but the.
- 4:11Speaker 2: Commissioner, Adam Silver, had an idea on how long the
- 4:15Speaker 2: game should be. He spoke to Fox Sports radio colleague
- 4:19Speaker 2: Dan Patrick, and here's how that conversation sounded.
- 4:22Speaker 5: Take a us something else that I'm a fan of,
- 4:25Speaker 5: and I'm probably in a minority as we get more
- 4:29Speaker 5: involved in global basketball. The NBA is the only league
- 4:32Speaker 5: that plays forty eight minutes, and I am a fan
- 4:36Speaker 5: of four ten minute quarters. I'm not sure that many
- 4:40Speaker 5: others are. I mean, putting inside what it means for
- 4:42Speaker 5: records and things like that, I think that a two
- 4:45Speaker 5: hour format for a game is more consistent with sort
- 4:48Speaker 5: of modern television habits. I don't think people in arenas
- 4:51Speaker 5: aren't asking us to shorten the game, but I think
- 4:53Speaker 5: as a television program being two hours, that's Olympic basketball.
- 4:57Speaker 5: It's being is two hours, but it's such a dramatic
- 5:00Speaker 5: change to the game. I mean, I think something like
- 5:02Speaker 5: that would have to be talk more about overtime.
- 5:05Speaker 1: Okay, so more overtime.
- 5:08Speaker 2: By the way, NBA games this season have run two
- 5:12Speaker 2: hours and sixteen minutes. Your average NBA game two hours
- 5:16Speaker 2: and sixteen minutes, which is almost the same as it's
- 5:18Speaker 2: been for the.
- 5:19Speaker 1: Last fifteen years.
- 5:21Speaker 2: The average time of game in the NBA two hours,
- 5:23Speaker 2: right around two hours and sixteen two hours and fifteen minutes,
- 5:26Speaker 2: give or take. So let us discuss the question Adam Silver,
- 5:31Speaker 2: as you just heard, we played the audio for you,
- 5:33Speaker 2: Adam Silver suggesting that the NBA could shorten games to
- 5:37Speaker 2: ten minute quarters. How does that sound to you? So
- 5:42Speaker 2: I've got camouflaging, crocodile, and steering wheel, and we'll combine
- 5:47Speaker 2: all of these things together, and we are going to
- 5:50Speaker 2: make a layup in a wide open layup, which is
- 5:54Speaker 2: very hard to miss. A wide open layup. You're right
- 5:56Speaker 2: under the basket, very hard to miss that. So my
- 5:59Speaker 2: first thought is, Adam Silver is bonkers. That's my first thought.
- 6:03Speaker 2: Your product is not good. You're trying to shorten the product.
- 6:08Speaker 2: It's essentially watering down the beer. As a bartender, you
- 6:12Speaker 2: want to water down the beer that you want to
- 6:15Speaker 2: make more money. And you'll be well, it's all about
- 6:17Speaker 2: TV and you're the NBA. Shouldn't international basketball follow you
- 6:22Speaker 2: rather than vice versa? Are you admitting that your product
- 6:25Speaker 2: is so crap bag? As the NBA product that you
- 6:29Speaker 2: want to follow international basketball? Who cares about that. You're
- 6:33Speaker 2: supposed to set the You're supposed to set the way
- 6:37Speaker 2: in that world. But the other thing, which is rather
- 6:41Speaker 2: obvious is the underlying condition that the NBA has. And
- 6:45Speaker 2: Adam silver under his watch, he has been such a
- 6:48Speaker 2: player friendly commissioner that the quality control has become terrible
- 6:55Speaker 2: in that business. And that's under his watch. And a
- 6:57Speaker 2: lot of the basketball media lick his tall and so
- 7:01Speaker 2: they don't want to bring this up because they love
- 7:03Speaker 2: Adam Silber because he's so nice to them as well.
- 7:07Speaker 2: The product is bad. The players are apathetic to the
- 7:10Speaker 2: regular season. They just it's a nuisance to them load management.
- 7:15Speaker 2: I saw this the other night. I didn't bring it
- 7:17Speaker 2: up on the show, but I thought it was perfect.
- 7:18Speaker 2: I was watching some of the Lakers Sixers game the
- 7:22Speaker 2: other night in Philly and they had a stat that
- 7:26Speaker 2: I saw. I think I saw this on the broadcast,
- 7:28Speaker 2: although I saw it on the internet too, so maybe
- 7:29Speaker 2: it was from the internet. But Joel Embiid, who is
- 7:32Speaker 2: really to me the poster boy for this generation of
- 7:35Speaker 2: the NBA. He is the face of this generation of
- 7:37Speaker 2: the NBA. And what do I mean by that, Joel
- 7:40Speaker 2: Embiid has missed forty seven percent of his career because
- 7:47Speaker 2: of either load management or injury. He's missed over four
- 7:51Speaker 2: hundred games now, I think it's right at four hundred
- 7:54Speaker 2: in his career. And that is the epitome of what
- 7:57Speaker 2: the modern NBA is right there.
- 8:00Speaker 1: That is it.
- 8:01Speaker 2: And Adam Silver supported that for years and then they
- 8:03Speaker 2: tried to put the toothpaste back of.
- 8:05Speaker 1: The tube a couple years ago.
- 8:07Speaker 2: Couldn't do it. So here we are, we're at a
- 8:09Speaker 2: fork in the road. We're at a crossroads for Adam Silver.
- 8:12Speaker 2: You make the call. You're the commissioner of the NBA.
- 8:16Speaker 2: Do you stay true to your high standards and say
- 8:18Speaker 2: we're not going to change the amount of time in
- 8:21Speaker 2: an NBA game, or do you bend over to television?
- 8:26Speaker 2: But really, this is not about TV. This is about
- 8:28Speaker 2: the players. It's not about the TV. It's about the players.
- 8:31Speaker 2: Sounds based on what we played that Adam Silver is
- 8:34Speaker 2: leaning heavily. The pendulum is leaning towards lowering your standards
- 8:40Speaker 2: and camelflagging this by claiming it's all about the boob tube.
- 8:43Speaker 2: It's all about television and all that. That's what TV wants.
- 8:47Speaker 1: Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah.
- 8:48Speaker 2: You know what TV also wants. They want players that
- 8:51Speaker 2: care about the reg of the season. You haven't done
- 8:53Speaker 2: much about that, mister commissioner.
- 8:54Speaker 1: Right.
- 8:55Speaker 2: They want a product that is quality and not just
- 8:58Speaker 2: pop a shot from the three point line. They want that. Also,
- 9:01Speaker 2: you haven't given them that either, mister commissioner. So now
- 9:03Speaker 2: you're worried about the length of quarters, which, as Adam
- 9:07Speaker 2: Silver reference, would completely harpoon the record book and forget
- 9:12Speaker 2: about chasing the legends. Much of what we enjoy in
- 9:15Speaker 2: sports is the fact that players are chasing ghosts from
- 9:19Speaker 2: the past, historical figures from the past. And remember when
- 9:23Speaker 2: Kobe Bryant had that eighty plus point game. There, it
- 9:26Speaker 2: was like, wow, he was only less than twenty points
- 9:28Speaker 2: away from Wilt Chamberlain. You know, but good luck doing
- 9:31Speaker 2: that in a forty minute game as opposed to a
- 9:34Speaker 2: forty eight minute game. But the camouflash part of this is,
- 9:38Speaker 2: and I'm just not buying that, it's it's for TV.
- 9:41Speaker 1: It's the players. It's too long, you know, you take away.
- 9:44Speaker 2: Eight minutes, it's less time for the players to play. Rather,
- 9:47Speaker 2: most good players for years, and it's not quite like
- 9:50Speaker 2: that anymore. But for years it was always your top
- 9:52Speaker 2: players can play forty eight minutes or forty minutes rather
- 9:55Speaker 2: out of a forty eight minute game, so they'll about
- 9:56Speaker 2: forty minutes. And then we've gotten into the period of
- 9:59Speaker 2: time where we're mister softies, so now you don't really
- 10:02Speaker 2: do that load management out of an abundance of caution.
- 10:06Speaker 2: And so that's where we are. But if you had
- 10:08Speaker 2: a forty minute game, what are your top players going
- 10:11Speaker 2: to play? Like twenty five minutes of the game? Is
- 10:13Speaker 2: that which were looking at? Twenty five minutes from your
- 10:16Speaker 2: top players?
- 10:16Speaker 1: Is that where we are? The whole thing is a boondoggle.
- 10:20Speaker 2: And the fact that Adam Silver, if I was an
- 10:23Speaker 2: NBA owner, would I would have a vote to have
- 10:25Speaker 2: him removed? Like you think your product is so bad
- 10:28Speaker 2: you want less of your product?
- 10:31Speaker 5: Now?
- 10:31Speaker 1: This is Rob Manford like is what it is? Right?
- 10:35Speaker 2: Let's play seven innings instead of nine innings in baseball,
- 10:38Speaker 2: Let's play seven?
- 10:39Speaker 1: How about that?
- 10:40Speaker 2: In fact football games, players would get hurt less if
- 10:43Speaker 2: we only play instead of four quarters. How about we
- 10:47Speaker 2: just play three and we'll get rid of one and
- 10:49Speaker 2: we'll change the name of it in all, but we'll
- 10:51Speaker 2: limit injuries out of an abundance of caution.
- 10:54Speaker 1: Why not? God so stupid? All right? Now?
- 10:58Speaker 2: Secondly, speaking of dumb da dum, dumb dumb, we take
- 11:02Speaker 2: you to Philadelphia where Paul George by George, for some reason,
- 11:07Speaker 2: out of the blue, Paul George recently complained about his
- 11:11Speaker 2: original team, the Indiana Pacers. So what Paul George said, quote,
- 11:19Speaker 2: I've never gotten a tribute video since I've been going
- 11:24Speaker 2: back to Indiana, and that was eight years ago. It sucks.
- 11:30Speaker 2: Close quote it sucks close quote So the Sixers. Paul George,
- 11:39Speaker 2: who's often getting hemorrhoids on the bench near Joel embiid.
- 11:43Speaker 2: So Paul George saying it sucks that he has not
- 11:48Speaker 2: received a tribute video from the Pacers.
- 11:53Speaker 1: What is your position on that? My position is.
- 11:56Speaker 2: Boo, who who and whoop deed Dami do do?
- 12:01Speaker 1: Is my position on that?
- 12:03Speaker 2: All right, squhad and we'll get the crocodile and we're
- 12:06Speaker 2: gonna shed some crocodile tears for Paul George. You're trying
- 12:10Speaker 2: to rewrite history. I support the Indiana Pacers, I do.
- 12:14Speaker 2: I support the boys from the Hoosier State. Good job
- 12:18Speaker 2: by you, if I'm not mistaken, chronicling the NBA from
- 12:22Speaker 2: behind the bully pulpit. Here, the Indiana Pacers wanted to
- 12:26Speaker 2: keep Paul George. They were convinced that they could win
- 12:29Speaker 2: a championship with Paul George. But it was Paul George
- 12:34Speaker 2: that raised the hullabaloo. He was not happy, he was upset, he.
- 12:38Speaker 1: Wanted out, and so in an.
- 12:40Speaker 2: Effort to pacify Paul George, they traded him. But they
- 12:44Speaker 2: didn't want to trade him.
- 12:45Speaker 1: They wanted to keep him.
- 12:47Speaker 2: And so I say, good job by the Pacers to
- 12:50Speaker 2: hold the grudge. And let's be honest here these small
- 12:53Speaker 2: sea video tribute vignette things are so lame. They've been
- 12:58Speaker 2: cheaping so much. And just like retired jerseys, that was
- 13:04Speaker 2: the ultimate And I don't support retiring jersey numbers. I
- 13:07Speaker 2: think it's it's lame. But it's even more lame now
- 13:11Speaker 2: when you think like andregdala Is having his jersey number
- 13:15Speaker 2: retired by the Warriors, who do you do? And the
- 13:17Speaker 2: Lakers retired Michael Cooper's number. What is going on here?
- 13:21Speaker 2: It's a little absurd, is what it is. And so
- 13:25Speaker 2: that's been cheapen it was supposed to only be for
- 13:28Speaker 2: the one percent of one percent and the tribute video.
- 13:32Speaker 2: I think of that the same way. If someone dies
- 13:35Speaker 2: tragically or they're sick, they have a tribute video or
- 13:37Speaker 2: something like that. If somebody is so pissed off with
- 13:41Speaker 2: your organization they demand a trade, they don't deserve a
- 13:45Speaker 2: tribute video. Why would you give them one? It makes
- 13:47Speaker 2: no sense. These things are often nauseating anyway. If everyone
- 13:52Speaker 2: gets a tribute video, they cheapen the tribute video quality.
- 13:57Speaker 1: For everyone else.
- 13:58Speaker 2: All right, now, final thought, We quickly pivot to baseball.
- 14:02Speaker 2: Play ball, playball. Spring training starts in a couple of weeks.
- 14:06Speaker 2: Spring training starts in a couple of weeks. Wowsers, and
- 14:10Speaker 2: Pete Alonzo can be yours if the price is right. Now,
- 14:15Speaker 2: Peter Alonzo, we learned in the last twenty four hours
- 14:18Speaker 2: or so that Pete Alonzo would like to remain only
- 14:23Speaker 2: with Scott Boris as his agent. He is not looking
- 14:25Speaker 2: to fire Scott Boris. There had been some rumors that
- 14:28Speaker 2: that was the case, but he According to a report
- 14:32Speaker 2: out of Toronto, they say that Alonzo is happy with
- 14:35Speaker 2: Scott Boris. Supposedly, and despite his ongoing free agency saga.
- 14:43Speaker 2: He is remaining loyal loyal to Scott Boris. So Pete
- 14:48Speaker 2: Alonzo backing his guy Mega Mega Mega mega agent Scott
- 14:53Speaker 2: Boris and says he will not talk to any new
- 14:57Speaker 2: agents amid the free agent see saga.
- 15:00Speaker 1: So what does all that mean? So the way I.
- 15:04Speaker 2: Interpreted this, there's a couple of thoughts I had. My
- 15:06Speaker 2: first thought is the polar bear is behind the wheel
- 15:12Speaker 2: and he's driving the struggle bus. He's at the steering
- 15:16Speaker 2: wheel and he's driving the struggle bus. That's my first
- 15:20Speaker 2: thought on this, that he's going to go down with
- 15:24Speaker 2: the Scott Boris ship. Now there have been conflicted before.
- 15:29Speaker 2: I actually I knew Scott a little bit. I kind
- 15:31Speaker 2: of casually know some of the people that work for
- 15:32Speaker 2: him back when I was doing baseball stuff. And Scott
- 15:35Speaker 2: is amazing at what he does. But there's some people
- 15:38Speaker 2: that are convinced he does not give the player the
- 15:41Speaker 2: full amount of information. Now, I've never had him as
- 15:44Speaker 2: my agent. I actually tried to get him as my
- 15:47Speaker 2: agent one time. He then explained to me how he
- 15:49Speaker 2: doesn't do radio. He only does a baseball so that
- 15:53Speaker 2: was different. But Scott, there's people that are convinced he
- 15:56Speaker 2: doesn't give his clients all the information. Now, this would
- 15:59Speaker 2: end Kate that Peter Alonso does have all the information
- 16:03Speaker 2: and he's fine with not playing for the Mets and
- 16:07Speaker 2: not taking a short term contract and just kind of
- 16:10Speaker 2: figuring out and seeing how all this goes. The other
- 16:13Speaker 2: thought is that the agents around baseball they also think
- 16:18Speaker 2: that there's some funny business going on with with Pete
- 16:22Speaker 2: Alonso and Scott Boris. And based on as we're doing
- 16:28Speaker 2: the show right now, reading the room, reading the room,
- 16:31Speaker 2: it would appear that Peter Alonzo only has two options.
- 16:34Speaker 2: He can either put his tail between his legs and
- 16:37Speaker 2: go back to the Mets and be like the third
- 16:41Speaker 2: guy behind Juan Soto and there's some other people that
- 16:45Speaker 2: have passed Alonzo by. He can do that, which would
- 16:47Speaker 2: be a masculating or Or Peter Alonso can go to
- 16:52Speaker 2: a place like Toronto and sign a one year contract
- 16:56Speaker 2: with a multi year contract with with then a bunch
- 16:58Speaker 2: of options to leave the Blue Jays after every year,
- 17:00Speaker 2: a bunch of escape patches baked in, So those are
- 17:02Speaker 2: his option. Haven't heard anyone else mention I thought he
- 17:05Speaker 2: would go to a team like the Giants or something
- 17:07Speaker 2: like that, but it sounds like it's either Toronto or
- 17:08Speaker 2: the Mets at this.
- 17:09Speaker 1: Point, and believe it or not.
- 17:12Speaker 2: February twentieth, first Cactus League baseball game. February twenty Dodgers
- 17:18Speaker 2: and Cubs will kick off the Cactus League and pitchers
- 17:21Speaker 2: and catchers will start reporting to spring training in I
- 17:25Speaker 2: think two weeks.
- 17:25Speaker 1: Or so, a little less than that. That's wild, wild,
- 17:28Speaker 1: and crazy, al right.

- 24:56Speaker 4: Out my trash in the middle of the night. And
- 24:58Speaker 4: all I could think of is I was looking at it,
- 25:00Speaker 4: taking it to the end of the driveway, looking at
- 25:03Speaker 4: the scum, the filth, the dirt, the leftovers. The smell
- 25:10Speaker 4: was buffalo. The bills, mafia, and the fans that I'm
- 25:14Speaker 4: surrounded by up here. These people have no life. They
- 25:19Speaker 4: live and die by the bills, and now all they
- 25:22Speaker 4: have to look forward to is six inches of snow
- 25:25Speaker 4: every day.

- 25:44Speaker 4: something that a small minor league soccer team does to
- 25:48Speaker 4: inspire their fan base. That's what Buffalo is and that's
- 25:52Speaker 4: why he was writing calling him a city of pathetic losers.
- 25:55Speaker 4: Maybe I threw empathetic. They are the sardines.
- 25:59Speaker 1: Of completely understandable and I hope so.

- 26:12Speaker 4: There used to be back in like I don't know,
- 26:14Speaker 4: the old days. You'd have to put a pin in
- 26:16Speaker 4: there and roll it up, and the smell was similar
- 26:21Speaker 4: to what Andy the comic book Spaceman smell.
- 26:26Speaker 2: All right, Well, on that note, you're really attacked. You're
- 26:30Speaker 2: right there in Ithaca and you've just attacked Bill's mafia.

- 26:50Speaker 1: Why, yeah, I work with a guy from Ithaca. Looney. Yeah,
- 26:54Speaker 1: he's trouble. So I don't know. I'm a little scared
- 26:56Speaker 1: of those people from Ithaca. I don't know about those.

- 27:01Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, he's looking he where's the clown makeup? He's

- 27:10Speaker 4: You know that Elmira Ithaca, same circle.
- 27:13Speaker 1: Jerk.
- 27:17Speaker 2: In fact, hoop, if you go from Elmira to Ithaca,
- 27:21Speaker 2: it's like thirty miles or something like that.
- 27:22Speaker 1: It's like right next to it. It's, you know, just
- 27:24Speaker 1: thirty miles.
- 27:25Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, Well, very good, Matt, to go to bed.

- 27:51Speaker 1: Jordan? Welcome?
- 27:53Speaker 9: Hey, first time calling a long time Listen. I'm a
- 27:57Speaker 9: big Eagle fan. It's tough being an Eagle fan here
- 27:59Speaker 9: in New York. Get I get shipped for it all
- 28:01Speaker 9: the time.
- 28:02Speaker 10: But I was the game.
- 28:04Speaker 9: Two years ago. I mean, we want that penalty to
- 28:07Speaker 9: end the game was just devastating it was. And I
- 28:10Speaker 9: just feel like this team, this defense, with Barkley on
- 28:15Speaker 9: the offense, I just feel like it's our year. And
- 28:18Speaker 9: I wanted the three match all year. I wanted Kansas
- 28:21Speaker 9: City and the super Bowl. I know I'm hearing by
- 28:24Speaker 9: a million different people. I don't want to watch this game.
- 28:27Speaker 9: Who wants to see the Eagles in Chiefs? And I
- 28:31Speaker 9: just think it's going to be a different outcome. I
- 28:32Speaker 9: think I think our defense is gonna wreck avoct And
- 28:36Speaker 9: I really, I really believe that this is our year.
- 28:39Speaker 2: All right, Well, we'll see what you are surrounded by,
- 28:43Speaker 2: like probably Bills fans or whatever. So why would they care?
- 28:46Speaker 2: Eagle fans want to watch it in Chiefs fans want
- 28:48Speaker 2: to watch it. But if you're not a fan of
- 28:49Speaker 2: the Chiefs or Eagles, as you know, right when when
- 28:52Speaker 2: the Eagles aren't in the super Bowl, you jones up
- 28:54Speaker 2: to watch the super Bowl.
- 28:56Speaker 9: Well, I mean, I love football, so I mean I
- 28:59Speaker 9: get that, but I love it. But I mean, you know,
- 29:03Speaker 9: everyone hates the Eagle fan base, and.
- 29:06Speaker 2: Well that's well that's well earned, that's well earned. But
- 29:09Speaker 2: you'd admit that. Come on, the Eagle fan as have
- 29:12Speaker 2: earned that reputation. You'd admit that.
- 29:14Speaker 1: Come on.
- 29:16Speaker 10: Yeah, some of them, some of them make us, to
- 29:18Speaker 10: make us and make.
- 29:19Speaker 2: Us bad a little bit, a little bit. It's a
- 29:22Speaker 2: badge of honor. Though, it's a badge of honor. I
- 29:24Speaker 2: know I got you all right. Well, you're confident your birds.
- 29:27Speaker 2: You think the birds will get it. Thank you for listening,
- 29:29Speaker 2: by the way, I appreciate that. Thank you absolutely the
- 29:32Speaker 2: great Jordan. Let's go to Steve in Colorado. It is
- 29:36Speaker 2: a newbie night, ready for newbie night. It's all new
- 29:40Speaker 2: callers all the time right here on a newbie night.
- 29:44Speaker 10: Hey then, uh, not a first time caller, but a
- 29:47Speaker 10: long time listener. I've listened to you since twenty twelve. Wow,
- 29:51Speaker 10: I think I've called like one one or two times before.
- 29:55Speaker 2: So the phrase then is first time long time night,
- 30:00Speaker 2: first time a long time. That's the cliche first time
- 30:03Speaker 2: long time.
- 30:04Speaker 10: It's kind of more like third, second or third time
- 30:07Speaker 10: long time. But I understand I have called a couple
- 30:10Speaker 10: of times. She got to play one of your iconic
- 30:13Speaker 10: game shows with you a couple of years ago, way
- 30:17Speaker 10: way way back when. But I do live in Colorado now,
- 30:22Speaker 10: I'm from Indianapolis, and you're a little monologue about Paul George,
- 30:28Speaker 10: just really shuck a chord with me, because I really
- 30:32Speaker 10: hate that guy. I do live in Colorado now, but
- 30:35Speaker 10: I love the Pacers. I've been a pacerss during my
- 30:38Speaker 10: whole life, and he's an absolute clown. Like Paul George
- 30:43Speaker 10: could have stayed in Indianapolis and becoming an Indianapolis basketball legend,
- 30:48Speaker 10: kind of like Reggie Miller or many of the wonderful
- 30:52Speaker 10: Pacers that have come before, but instead he wanted to
- 30:56Speaker 10: wind the clown and complain. And he's done nothing in
- 30:59Speaker 10: the NBA, like literally nothing. Uh, He's gonna end up
- 31:03Speaker 10: being retired more notable for being podcast pete than he
- 31:07Speaker 10: has playoff p like he likes to project himself as.
- 31:12Speaker 10: And uh, the clown could have stayed with the Indiana
- 31:16Speaker 10: Pacers and done something great. Instead, he decided to move
- 31:20Speaker 10: on because he thought he was better than the Pacers. Instead,
- 31:23Speaker 10: he's done absolutely nothing. Yeah, and Paul George is a clown.
- 31:28Speaker 10: Every stop that he's been out, he's done absolutely nothing.
- 31:32Speaker 10: And the Pacers are honestly on a better projection than
- 31:35Speaker 10: they are. The Pacers with Pascal Siako.
- 31:39Speaker 2: Yeah, no, I hear you, no, but that was my
- 31:41Speaker 2: that was my point. You're the rambling man, But I
- 31:44Speaker 2: agree with you, Steve. You're you're preaching to the choir
- 31:47Speaker 2: on that Paul George chose to leave.
- 31:49Speaker 1: If you choose to leave, that's you're right. If you
- 31:51Speaker 1: if you raise.
- 31:52Speaker 2: A stink and you want to leave a team, that's fine,
- 31:54Speaker 2: But don't expect the team to kiss your ass and
- 31:57Speaker 2: put a video up when you come back. If you
- 31:59Speaker 2: decided you were the one that wanted to leave.
- 32:00Speaker 1: That's on you. So oh yeah, all right, all right,
- 32:04Speaker 1: well leave we'll leave it there.
- 32:04Speaker 2: But thank you, Steve the great Steve, he's a Pacer fan,
- 32:07Speaker 2: but he is in he's in Colorado now, so he
- 32:09Speaker 2: gets to see the Pacers once, of you when they
- 32:10Speaker 2: play the Nuggets. Real quick, Greg in the Sunshine State
- 32:14Speaker 2: on a New Bee night. It's all new Callers, all
- 32:16Speaker 2: the time.
- 32:16Speaker 3: Hello, Greg, Hey, I've got three three possible UH solutions
- 32:22Speaker 3: for the NBA to stop their downwards spiral of their
- 32:26Speaker 3: ancident right now.
- 32:27Speaker 11: And have been for a while.
- 32:29Speaker 10: UH.
- 32:29Speaker 11: Number one, make the contracts because they can. They can
- 32:34Speaker 11: influence the contracts one hundred percent.
- 32:35Speaker 10: These teams.
- 32:36Speaker 11: Make it more time based, you know, they where they
- 32:39Speaker 11: have to play, you know, a minimum of like thirty
- 32:40Speaker 11: six minutes or whatever to make the big bucks.
- 32:42Speaker 4: And all that.
- 32:43Speaker 11: And maybe they'll take the uh, you know, take take
- 32:46Speaker 11: the power out of the of the of the the
- 32:49Speaker 11: inmates of the asylum and give it back to the
- 32:51Speaker 11: asylum to kind of have a little control. So these
- 32:54Speaker 11: guys can understand that they're a million dollars paid guys
- 32:57Speaker 11: that need to come to work and actually do the
- 33:00Speaker 11: work instead of being cry babies. Number two, I think
- 33:03Speaker 11: they should make the playoffs more incentive based as well
- 33:07Speaker 11: and have less teams going. I know that's not good
- 33:09Speaker 11: financially for the league, but if they do that, then
- 33:12Speaker 11: these gates you can play a little harder during the
- 33:14Speaker 11: during the regular season, and that's why people want to watch.
- 33:16Speaker 11: They want to watch the good players either fail or
- 33:19Speaker 11: do great. They don't want to sit set up a bench.
- 33:22Speaker 11: And then also, mister Miller, I'd have to say the
- 33:24Speaker 11: number three thing is they've got to understand that you know,
- 33:28Speaker 11: Mike's been drinking urine for years.
- 33:32Speaker 1: Yes, Doc Mike. So that's the key.
- 33:34Speaker 2: You just have to follow the hired Doc Mike is
- 33:37Speaker 2: the medical advisor to the NBA, and instead of gatorade,
- 33:41Speaker 2: they'll have urine on the bench.
- 33:43Speaker 1: That'll be thank you. All Right, there you go is
