- 1:54Speaker 1: Limits talking about CTE, brain trum and so forth. Well,
- 1:58Speaker 1: won't you give the audience an overview of what you're
- 2:01Speaker 1: all about?
- 2:02Speaker 6: Okay, yeah, yeah, I appreciate you guys having me here. Well,
- 2:06Speaker 6: my story is I was a Bob's Letter. Let's put
- 2:09Speaker 6: it this way. I was always a really fast guy,
- 2:12Speaker 6: but I wasn't fast enough to make the US Summer
- 2:15Speaker 6: Olympic team. Those guys are running nine when I'm only
- 2:17Speaker 6: running ten, you know. So it was a huge difference.
- 2:20Speaker 6: But I was way faster than the average Bobs Letter.
- 2:23Speaker 6: So I wound up finding putting roots down over there
- 2:26Speaker 6: and spending ten years, no nine years, I'm sorry. I
- 2:28Speaker 6: spent nine years with the US winning Olympic bobsled team.
- 2:32Speaker 6: So from nineteen ninety nine to around two thousand and
- 2:34Speaker 6: seven was my last race. And the truth is, like
- 2:38Speaker 6: a lot of my teammates or really was the sport
- 2:41Speaker 6: of Bob's letting and the injuries really linked up with football.
- 2:45Speaker 6: I had teammates that began to commit suicide. I was
- 2:48Speaker 6: at my lowest point as well. I got really really
- 2:51Speaker 6: sick from the symptoms, and thanks to football Joe Namath,
- 2:55Speaker 6: he helped me find my way back by using hyperberic oxygen.
- 3:00Speaker 6: I been on the journey just spreading the word. I
- 3:02Speaker 6: see these football players and our military guys just suffering
- 3:06Speaker 6: from the symptoms, and I.
- 3:07Speaker 3: Trust my head to all the same ones they had.
- 3:10Speaker 6: But it just took for me to get in a
- 3:11Speaker 6: hyperbertical oxygen thanks to Joe Namath, and it turned me around.
- 3:14Speaker 6: And so I'm just here spreading the word, just trying
- 3:16Speaker 6: to save as many many lives as I can. So
- 3:19Speaker 6: matter of fact, you guys might see my GoFundMe down there.
- 3:23Speaker 6: We're trying to raise money just to get the equipment
- 3:25Speaker 6: so I can keep treating football athletes, actually all the
- 3:29Speaker 6: athletes as well as the veterans for free, Like it
- 3:31Speaker 6: has to be a free service because it's so expensive. Guys,
- 3:35Speaker 6: Like when I went through it, somebody blessed me. They
- 3:38Speaker 6: let me go through the first two rounds of treatment
- 3:40Speaker 6: for free. It got rid of my cloudiness, my anxiousness,
- 3:43Speaker 6: the anxiety, the depression, everything just went away overnight. And
- 3:47Speaker 6: then next thing I know, I needed twenty five thousand
- 3:49Speaker 6: dollars to buy this machine for myself and I didn't
- 3:52Speaker 6: have it, but my dad stepped in and saved my button. Man.
- 3:55Speaker 3: So I'm just trying to pay it forward.
- 3:58Speaker 6: So I just really hope that by listening to football guys,
- 4:02Speaker 6: like they said, I think ninety percent of the brains
- 4:04Speaker 6: have been tested have that ct in it, and so
- 4:08Speaker 6: it makes sense. But nobody needs to suffer like that
- 4:11Speaker 6: because there's treatments out here, but no one's like I said,
- 4:14Speaker 6: they're not really talking about it.
- 4:15Speaker 3: I found it by accident.
- 4:17Speaker 1: Well, when people get done with this show, they're gonna
- 4:19Speaker 1: feel like CTE because I go faster than the pot food.
- 4:23Speaker 1: So if you don't understand that story.
- 4:24Speaker 2: I believe me.
- 4:25Speaker 1: I'm just kidding with you. But I do move fast.
- 4:27Speaker 1: That's what I do, and I have to. I have
- 4:29Speaker 1: to make a confession today. Okay, I'm not going on
- 4:33Speaker 1: Saturday the church to do it. I'm gonna do it
- 4:35Speaker 1: in front of a national audience. I did something that
- 4:38Speaker 1: you don't do in the kitchen. You don't throw a
- 4:41Speaker 1: hard boiled egg in the microphone for thirty seconds because
- 4:44Speaker 1: if you do, you'll pull the stupid thing up. Or yeah,
- 4:47Speaker 1: is that when I say yeah, you tell the story.
- 4:49Speaker 1: You don't put a hard boiled egg and a microwave
- 4:52Speaker 1: because who do you have? You have a hard boiled
- 4:54Speaker 1: egg that unfortunately makes the microwave dirty, and Candy has
- 4:59Speaker 1: to behind me.
- 5:00Speaker 2: So there you go.
- 5:01Speaker 1: People don't put a hard boiled egg and a microwaveleg
- 5:05Speaker 1: doors truly dead. I've been banned from the kitchen for
- 5:08Speaker 1: a nine million time. No other time she'll ever let
- 5:10Speaker 1: me go in there is and I want to get
- 5:11Speaker 1: pop or a mountain dew, and that's that day, coach. Otherwise,
- 5:15Speaker 1: stay out of the kitchen. You are not allowed to
- 5:18Speaker 1: go in there. Unless I had to do something with
- 5:21Speaker 1: a sixty second meal that doesn't require.
- 5:22Speaker 2: A lot of thinking. Now that is.
- 5:27Speaker 4: Okay, there you go.
- 5:28Speaker 2: But can you put a regular egg in there? That's
- 5:30Speaker 2: a hard boiled egg, But can.
- 5:32Speaker 3: You put a regular egg in there?
- 5:33Speaker 6: Yes, I'm about to find out tonight.
- 5:38Speaker 1: Thanks a lot, Thanks a lot. Yeah, but don't go
- 5:42Speaker 1: out there and expect cooking invite from me. I'm not
- 5:44Speaker 1: the guy that's gonna give it to you. I'll tell
- 5:47Speaker 1: you when I was in college, I put a grow
- 5:48Speaker 1: cheese sandwich in a microwave for four minutes and I
- 5:51Speaker 1: could have broken a triple plane window with that thing.
- 5:54Speaker 1: If you don't want if you want to get nail
- 5:56Speaker 1: for a salt and battery, just take a piece of wood,
- 5:58Speaker 1: put a growed cheese sandwich on top of you. Get
- 6:00Speaker 1: somebody in the head with a crochee sandwich, and guess
- 6:03Speaker 1: what you'll be over in the jail before you can
- 6:05Speaker 1: fast and turn your head. And if you want to
- 6:07Speaker 1: break a window, if that's okay, that four minutes five
- 6:09Speaker 1: minute grocheese will get it done.
- 6:11Speaker 2: All right, that's enough.
- 6:12Speaker 1: This is not a cooking show, although I'll be cooking
- 6:14Speaker 1: a lot of good content tonight. Oh I'll tell you. Well,
- 6:17Speaker 1: you saw me when I was just getting going. Now
- 6:19Speaker 1: you're gonna see me whatever.
- 6:20Speaker 2: Really can't go.
- 6:22Speaker 1: I'm glad everybody ended out there watching us. We have
- 6:25Speaker 1: a lot to get going here today. We're gonna start
- 6:28Speaker 1: off with a National Football League or no, maybe not.
- 6:31Speaker 2: We're gonna start off and that I told you so
- 6:33Speaker 2: a moment because this really hurts.
- 6:36Speaker 4: That mean this.
- 6:37Speaker 1: Okay, let's talk about the USC Trojans. Then what they
- 6:41Speaker 1: did to the Michigan Wolverines. All they did was beat
- 6:44Speaker 1: them was at thirty eight to thirteen. Well, let me
- 6:47Speaker 1: set the stage for this football game. Okay, it was
- 6:50Speaker 1: a rematch of last year's close matchup. Okay, they were
- 6:54Speaker 1: a little light Michigan defense versus uses high power offense
- 6:59Speaker 1: will be a great matchup.
- 7:00Speaker 2: Well, it didn't quite turn out that way. Okay.
- 7:03Speaker 1: Their star wide receiver Mattaie Levin leads the power five
- 7:08Speaker 1: and receiving so far. I'm sure Marven I'll be moren't
- 7:10Speaker 1: happy to give us an update on that one. And
- 7:12Speaker 1: USC is one of the best offenses in college football,
- 7:15Speaker 1: led by Jayden Mayava. And if that isn't good enough,
- 7:19Speaker 1: USC leads a series six to five, but lost in
- 7:22Speaker 1: the Big owns last year, make it seven to five.
- 7:25Speaker 1: But that said Marvin, that's sure. But the only bright
- 7:28Speaker 1: spot that came out of that thing for the Michigan Wolverine,
- 7:31Speaker 1: by the way, was a guy by the name of
- 7:33Speaker 1: Andrew marsh He had a career high and then a
- 7:37Speaker 1: team high eight receptions for one hundred and thirty eight
- 7:41Speaker 1: yards of touchdown. Bryce Underwood primary target. Marvin take over
- 7:45Speaker 1: the narrative about what the Trojans just did.
- 7:47Speaker 7: Yeah, so this was the biggest win in Lincoln Riley's career.
- 7:52Speaker 7: You know, he's been there for four years and when
- 7:54Speaker 7: he came into us, when he got to USC, he
- 7:56Speaker 7: was talking about making it the mecca college football. You know,
- 7:59Speaker 7: it was almost to Lebron's you know, three four five,
- 8:03Speaker 7: it was. It was something like that. That was the
- 8:04Speaker 7: energy he was given off. And you know he came
- 8:08Speaker 7: in in that first year, they had a run. Caleb
- 8:11Speaker 7: Williams did great, and you know, they didn't make the playoffs,
- 8:14Speaker 7: but they won eleven games. The next year, calebern is
- 8:16Speaker 7: the heisman, but we only won like seven or eight games,
- 8:19Speaker 7: and then last year it was subpar.
- 8:22Speaker 3: And after all.
- 8:23Speaker 7: The improvements, the nil money, the facilities, the all star coaching, staff.
- 8:29Speaker 7: You know, we've been waiting for a signature win because
- 8:31Speaker 7: we really haven't had it yet. Michigan is a team
- 8:34Speaker 7: who's highly respected in college football. They've been in the
- 8:37Speaker 7: playoffs in the last couple of years, they won a
- 8:39Speaker 7: championship a couple of years ago. So this is considered
- 8:42Speaker 7: to be a top ranked program, a real Big Ten powerhouse,
- 8:45Speaker 7: and we wanted to see if Lincoln Riley, you know,
- 8:47Speaker 7: can put together a team that could compete with that
- 8:51Speaker 7: caliber team. And not only did they compete, it was
- 8:54Speaker 7: almost a blowout. You know, we had two we had
- 8:56Speaker 7: two red zone turnovers that really changed the momentum in
- 9:00Speaker 7: the game. And throughout the entire game, USC was in control.
- 9:03Speaker 7: There was there was no point in that game where
- 9:05Speaker 7: used to where Michigan fans felt that they had a chance,
- 9:08Speaker 7: or that they had the momentum or this is about
- 9:11Speaker 7: to happen. That never happened. USC dominated on offense and defense.
- 9:15Speaker 8: Uh.
- 9:15Speaker 7: Michigan has a high powered run game, that's what they're
- 9:18Speaker 7: known for. USC shut them down. Uh, Michigan. I ended
- 9:23Speaker 7: up having less less than I want to say, less
- 9:25Speaker 7: than one hundred and fifty yards restaurant.
- 9:27Speaker 2: I believe.
- 9:29Speaker 3: There you go. You know where USC.
- 9:31Speaker 7: Had almost five hundred yards four hundred and eighty nine
- 9:34Speaker 7: yards of offense. I mean listen, for Lincoln Rally. This
- 9:37Speaker 7: was huge at home. We had a packed house, We
- 9:39Speaker 7: had over one hundred recruits there and for Lincoln Rally.
- 9:44Speaker 7: In this program, you know, this is what USC fans
- 9:48Speaker 7: needed to see us being able to compete in prime
- 9:50Speaker 7: time on a national stage against a real opponent. And
- 9:54Speaker 7: as we know, there's there's another opponent coming up this
- 9:56Speaker 7: week with Notre Dame. But this was a huge win
- 9:59Speaker 7: for us, for our program, and it just lets us
- 10:02Speaker 7: know that at the midpoint of this season, you know,
- 10:05Speaker 7: we're in contention, we're relevant, We're still there. We're ranking
- 10:08Speaker 7: in a twenty right now, but after this win we
- 10:10Speaker 7: should shoot up there.
- 10:12Speaker 3: Let go.
- 10:13Speaker 2: So there's your what are your talks about the performance
- 10:15Speaker 2: so of Andrew.
- 10:16Speaker 3: Marsh Yeah, freshman receiver. I'll tell you what.
- 10:20Speaker 7: Michigan has a five star quarterback, Brush Underwood out of Detroit, Michigan.
- 10:25Speaker 7: This kid is promising. He's been averaging about two hundred
- 10:28Speaker 7: yards of game passing. The passing game hasn't been effective,
- 10:31Speaker 7: really hasn't. He hasn't really moved the Needle and the
- 10:34Speaker 7: game against US, they found a stud in the receiver
- 10:38Speaker 7: of marsh who actually had a good game prior to
- 10:40Speaker 7: the USC game, but against sc he blew up. He
- 10:43Speaker 7: had like over one hundred and fifty yards. Key plays
- 10:46Speaker 7: big plays even though the game was never really close.
- 10:50Speaker 7: He gave them hope. He gave them a little bit
- 10:52Speaker 7: of hope. So he's a spectacular player. And with six
- 10:56Speaker 7: games to go and for them maybe playoffs, I don't know,
- 11:00Speaker 7: you should see him continue to make place. Not like
- 11:03Speaker 7: Makayle Lemon, who you mentioned earlier. Mikayle Lemon right now
- 11:06Speaker 7: is probably the bleating the cough leader. Jade Mayava is
- 11:09Speaker 7: absolutely somebody who should be considered for the heisman. Right now,
- 11:15Speaker 7: Makayle Lemon is playing as good as any receiver who
- 11:19Speaker 7: has ever played at USC. When you watch and he's
- 11:22Speaker 7: a difference maker, he's a game changer. He's a receiver.
- 11:25Speaker 7: He's a six foot receiver. When he gets the ball,
- 11:27Speaker 7: he runs that ball like a high like a power
- 11:30Speaker 7: running back. This kid is dynamic, phenomenal hands, speed, quickness.
- 11:34Speaker 7: I mean, he'll make you missing a phone book, that's
- 11:36Speaker 7: who he is. But he's tough. You know, so he's
- 11:38Speaker 7: a phenomenal player. Watch out for him this week against
- 11:41Speaker 7: Notre Dame.
- 11:42Speaker 1: Yeah, and keep in mind once again, the final score
- 11:44Speaker 1: was thirty one to thirteen in favor of the trophy.
- 11:46Speaker 1: They came out, they were team on a mission, and
- 11:49Speaker 1: they took their business quality win against a top tier opponent.
- 11:53Speaker 1: We'll see what happens, you know, with the wolver rings
- 11:55Speaker 1: and the Trojan's good rivalry. I guess that's one of
- 11:57Speaker 1: the reasons I'm glad that USC and uc LA joined
- 12:00Speaker 1: the Big ten lbit. Geographically, it doesn't make a lot
- 12:02Speaker 1: of sense, but you know, considering the direction for the
- 12:05Speaker 1: fact twelve Yes, following up on Land America, there you go,
- 12:12Speaker 1: all right, well, you know what, you're in southern California.
- 12:14Speaker 1: What do you think of that signature?
- 12:16Speaker 6: When well, you know, actually one of my best friends
- 12:19Speaker 6: is a USC alumni, and he's in the film. He
- 12:22Speaker 6: was out of the film department, so I used to
- 12:24Speaker 6: go to a lot of the USC football games. He
- 12:27Speaker 6: got was a tailgated with tailgating and then we go
- 12:31Speaker 6: in and do the get them home tickets. But man,
- 12:35Speaker 6: you can usually tell when USC is gonna be good
- 12:37Speaker 6: that they have a certain swagger to them, and I
- 12:39Speaker 6: don't care what when they have early if they don't
- 12:42Speaker 6: have that same swaggers they had in the nineties, like,
- 12:44Speaker 6: they kind of usually fizzle out. And so I was
- 12:48Speaker 6: watching them this weekend with that game you're talking about,
- 12:50Speaker 6: and I think they're actually gonna probably do pretty good.
- 12:53Speaker 6: They gonna do pretty good. I shouldn't have to talk
- 12:55Speaker 6: my friend out off the last too much this year. Yeah,
- 12:58Speaker 6: but I know they lost that game. I forgot who
- 13:00Speaker 6: they were playing, Illinois, Illinois.
- 13:02Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 13:03Speaker 6: Yeah, that's the kind of thing. You never know with us,
- 13:06Speaker 6: what's gonna show up. But usually when they really fired
- 13:09Speaker 6: on all cylinders, like that's certain. They just have a
- 13:13Speaker 6: certain level of swag and I'm starting to see that. So,
- 13:17Speaker 6: like they played Notre Dame next, is that it?
- 13:18Speaker 3: Yeah, we're gonna beat No Dame Saturday. I was about
- 13:21Speaker 3: to ask you who, Yeah, what's the score? Thirty five
- 13:24Speaker 3: thirty four? Usc Okay.
- 13:29Speaker 6: I think that they can shut Notre Dame down a
- 13:31Speaker 6: little bit better than that. I think they're gonna I
- 13:33Speaker 6: don't think Notre Dame is gonna score that much.
- 13:35Speaker 7: They got a quarterback, they got two serious running backs.
- 13:38Speaker 7: They have a veteran offensive line. They do have playmaking receivers,
- 13:43Speaker 7: absolutely do.
- 13:44Speaker 2: Uh.
- 13:44Speaker 7: They spread it around. If you look at their distribution,
- 13:47Speaker 7: it's to the tight end the receivers in the backs
- 13:49Speaker 7: top four. So you know they got something. But so
- 13:52Speaker 7: the way, Yeah, what are they playing when they playing
- 13:55Speaker 7: at home? Or yeah, we're gonna beat them in Notre
- 13:57Speaker 7: Dame in South Bend.
- 13:58Speaker 6: Oh yeah, that changed a little bit. I still hope
- 14:03Speaker 6: the UC pull this one out.
- 14:04Speaker 3: Though it'll be seventy four degrees and clear.
- 14:07Speaker 1: George, I think you've been pretty quiet over the whole thing,
- 14:10Speaker 1: your thoughts about what I WOULDMITI The USC also looks
- 14:13Speaker 1: like old time for all the wrong reasons.
- 14:14Speaker 8: In the Road Bowl, Well, yeah, I'm very disappointed with
- 14:18Speaker 8: Michigan's performance. They got their head coach back after his suspension.
- 14:23Speaker 8: He took the team out there an extra day early
- 14:25Speaker 8: to try to acclimate it to the time change. You know,
- 14:31Speaker 8: he kept I think Bryce Underwood under wraps too long,
- 14:35Speaker 8: and not only him, but in the other games too.
- 14:37Speaker 8: This year, they're very slow in letting Bryce sort of
- 14:41Speaker 8: run the offense. I know he's brand new, obviously a freshman,
- 14:46Speaker 8: but he did pretty well. Fifteen out of twenty four
- 14:48Speaker 8: two hundred and seven yards. He averaged eight point six
- 14:51Speaker 8: every throw, two touchdowns, one intercept, and then like you
- 14:55Speaker 8: were saying, Scott, I mean the kid just oh the
- 14:59Speaker 8: what a great Andrew Marshad.
- 15:01Speaker 3: But it wasn't enough.
- 15:03Speaker 8: And like my friend here said from USC, you know,
- 15:06Speaker 8: one hundred and nine yards that's not going to cut it. Okay,
- 15:08Speaker 8: U have m You allowed Trojans two hundred and twenty
- 15:12Speaker 8: four yards rushing and you only had one hundred and nine.
- 15:15Speaker 8: That is not a Michigan typical game plan. However, however,
- 15:21Speaker 8: they did have more yards receiving, but it still didn't matter.
- 15:24Speaker 8: I mean, defensively, they couldn't stop USC and they're paying
- 15:28Speaker 8: the price right now, you know. So it's just something
- 15:33Speaker 8: that you know, you knew these things were going to happen. Okay,
- 15:37Speaker 8: when the Big ten expanded, you were getting some very
- 15:40Speaker 8: very prestigious and name programs like you mentioned Scott, USC, UCLA, Oregon, Washington.
- 15:47Speaker 8: You know, this is something that the Big ten, of
- 15:50Speaker 8: the Big ten traditional teams universities, if you will, they
- 15:54Speaker 8: knew this kind of thing was going to happen because
- 15:56Speaker 8: of the time change, the talent level, the recruiting. Oh,
- 16:00Speaker 8: the West Coast offense, whatever you want to call it, Well,
- 16:03Speaker 8: my hat's off. I'm disappointed at the U of M,
- 16:05Speaker 8: but my hats are off to the Trojans because you
- 16:08Speaker 8: you whipped us pretty good.
- 16:09Speaker 3: Man.
- 16:10Speaker 1: I can't We have a lot to get to the
- 16:12Speaker 1: night here on the Sports and Chade, we're just getting started,
- 16:14Speaker 1: but I had to go with this one. Candy or
- 16:16Speaker 1: you're thoughts about what took place with Michigan USC.
- 16:19Speaker 4: USC's defense came to play and the reason why I
- 16:23Speaker 4: know that is Michigan on third downs were two of nine.
- 16:28Speaker 4: On fourth down zero of two. You're not gonna win games,
- 16:32Speaker 4: you know, going two of eleven on third or fourth
- 16:36Speaker 4: downs like that's just not gonna happen. That also tells
- 16:39Speaker 4: me that you were probably I will admit I did
- 16:42Speaker 4: not see the game, but I'm guessing that on first
- 16:45Speaker 4: and second down USC was holding them to very few yards.
- 16:49Speaker 4: So their third downs were like third and five or
- 16:52Speaker 4: third and four, and so it makes it harder, and
- 16:56Speaker 4: especially if the USC is really defend the rush and
- 17:00Speaker 4: not allowing a lot of rush yards, that means now
- 17:03Speaker 4: all of a sudden, you're trying to pass and you're
- 17:05Speaker 4: trying to throw and if your guys aren't open. But
- 17:07Speaker 4: that's why Marsh got I mean he was only he
- 17:10Speaker 4: was only targeted nine times. If you think about that,
- 17:14Speaker 4: eight receptions for one hundred and thirty eight yards. So
- 17:17Speaker 4: he did well. But that means enough of the other
- 17:20Speaker 4: team wasn't whether it was USC blocking getting in the
- 17:24Speaker 4: way forcing. USC also had three sacks, so that makes
- 17:31Speaker 4: a difference too. You know, kudos to USC for beating
- 17:37Speaker 4: a very quality opponent in Michigan. And as a Badger fan,
- 17:41Speaker 4: that pains me to say that. So but this whole
- 17:44Speaker 4: season pains me as a Badger fan right now.
- 17:46Speaker 2: So I'll oh, don't worry.
- 17:49Speaker 1: I got some good stuff for you now that you
- 17:50Speaker 1: just said that for next week, Candy.
- 17:52Speaker 2: It marked my word. Now you really put your Now,
- 17:54Speaker 2: you're really setting me up for what's going to happen.
- 17:56Speaker 1: Oh goodness, watch out Candy for next week because of
- 17:59Speaker 1: what you just said.
- 18:00Speaker 2: So here's my take on it. Real quick.
- 18:02Speaker 1: I recorded the game, Okay, went covered FAU against UAB
- 18:08Speaker 1: Okay saw the score, didn't like it when I saw
- 18:12Speaker 1: it ended up the way I did. Didn't matter, Hoseland.
- 18:15Speaker 1: I saw FAU football defeat UAV players that worked out
- 18:18Speaker 1: out to be Trent till first final football game period.
- 18:22Speaker 1: So if you don't like what you see, hit delete
- 18:25Speaker 1: and you're done. Just like I'm no longer going to
- 18:27Speaker 1: talk about this topic. That we have a whole lot more.
- 18:30Speaker 1: We're going to National Football League people. That the Buffalo
- 18:33Speaker 1: Bills are the first team to overcome a fifteenth plus
- 18:36Speaker 1: point deficit in the final four minutes and went in
- 18:40Speaker 1: a game thanks to Josh Allen. But so far that
- 18:44Speaker 1: seems to be the high point of the season because
- 18:46Speaker 1: they are on a two.
- 18:47Speaker 2: Game losing streak. Marvin, I'll tell you one thing.
- 18:50Speaker 1: You can put yourself in the record books for a
- 18:54Speaker 1: certain reason. But now you have a two game losing
- 18:56Speaker 1: streak and everybody's questioning any So we're here talks about
- 18:59Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills.
- 19:00Speaker 7: Yeah, listen, you play seventeen games. This is a long season.
- 19:04Speaker 7: The season is like five months long. Okay, you're gonna
- 19:07Speaker 7: lose games. There are no easy games on an NFL schedule.
- 19:11Speaker 7: It is any given Sunday. Okay, I do fantasy football.
- 19:15Speaker 7: I do these knockout pulls. It is impossible to pick
- 19:18Speaker 7: who's gonna win a game straight up on who's not,
- 19:20Speaker 7: you know, because even the worst team has high caliber players,
- 19:24Speaker 7: even the worst team has first round draft picks. The
- 19:27Speaker 7: worst team in football will beat a good team any Sunday.
- 19:30Speaker 7: We see it happen all the time, you know what
- 19:32Speaker 7: I mean. So I'm not surprised that they have als.
- 19:35Speaker 7: I mean, the Bills may end up, you know, eleven
- 19:37Speaker 7: and six, that's good, and they still win the playoffs.
- 19:40Speaker 7: They have arguably the best quarterback in football right now.
- 19:43Speaker 7: And when you have the best quarterback in football, you're
- 19:45Speaker 7: in every single game, every it doesn't matter. Nothing else
- 19:48Speaker 7: really matters. I mean, and it does. But if you
- 19:50Speaker 7: have the best quarterback, then you have something that's very special.
- 19:53Speaker 7: In an NFL offense where the quarterback is everything, they
- 19:57Speaker 7: have an MVP.
- 19:58Speaker 3: Josh.
- 19:59Speaker 7: Josh is looking at another MVP season. His team is
- 20:02Speaker 7: gonna be in the playoffs. His team, you know, as
- 20:06Speaker 7: we get into the second and third parts of the season,
- 20:08Speaker 7: his team will going to continue to win games, and
- 20:10Speaker 7: they'll probably get beat again. But again, you're looking at
- 20:13Speaker 7: maybe eleven and six, you know that that's realistic. It
- 20:17Speaker 7: could be could be twelve and five, you know, but
- 20:20Speaker 7: still they'll go to the playoffs. I'm not worried about
- 20:22Speaker 7: the Bills at all. I'm a Jet fan, trust me,
- 20:24Speaker 7: the Bills have nothing to worry about. The Jets ain't
- 20:27Speaker 7: beating the Bills no time soon, all right, So that
- 20:29Speaker 7: that's a win right there for you. But Josh Allen
- 20:32Speaker 7: and the Buffalo Bills are a top organization. They have
- 20:37Speaker 7: they have one of the best players in the game,
- 20:39Speaker 7: and that makes im relevant in every game him, Katie.
- 20:43Speaker 4: The Buffalo Bills are four into They beat the Ravens,
- 20:47Speaker 4: the Jets, the Dolphins, and the Saints. Now they lost
- 20:50Speaker 4: to the Patriots twenty three twenty but the Patriots are
- 20:54Speaker 4: an up and coming team with a new coach, which
- 20:57Speaker 4: is an old coach. But Mike Rabels got those Patriots
- 21:00Speaker 4: playing pretty good ball. Then you go in and you
- 21:04Speaker 4: have to play Atlanta, and yeah, that's where they didn't
- 21:07Speaker 4: do as well. But Atlanta's three and two. They're not that.
- 21:12Speaker 4: Like Marvin said, any given team, on any given Sunday,
- 21:16Speaker 4: I would say this year, I feel that there is
- 21:19Speaker 4: more parody in amongst all the teams than there ever
- 21:23Speaker 4: has been. I mean, look at the Eagles have lost games,
- 21:27Speaker 4: the Chiefs have lost how many games, and you would
- 21:29Speaker 4: have thought the Lions have lost a couple of games
- 21:32Speaker 4: like those are the teams that you thought coming in
- 21:34Speaker 4: would be at the top, and they have losses. It's
- 21:38Speaker 4: a long season. You play, how many get you play
- 21:41Speaker 4: seventeen games, You're bound to lose a couple here and there.
- 21:45Speaker 4: Not everybody can be on their a game every given Sunday.
- 21:51Speaker 3: So what are you saying is Baltimore is making a comeback?
- 21:54Speaker 2: Yeah, Baltimore.
- 21:59Speaker 3: Because Marvin, if you got a great quarterback, you.
- 22:01Speaker 4: Know, yeah, yeah, but yeah, but their quarterback is a
- 22:04Speaker 4: little injured, a little banged up right now.
- 22:07Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, So with that said, go ahead, Well
- 22:09Speaker 1: what are your thoughts about what's going on here with
- 22:12Speaker 1: the Bills? I got plenty more stuff to get there.
- 22:14Speaker 1: We're just getting warmed up here.
- 22:15Speaker 3: Go ahead, Well, Bills are a tough team.
- 22:17Speaker 6: Matter of fact, this probably is not even relevant, but
- 22:20Speaker 6: after when I was still running track, they came out
- 22:23Speaker 6: and worked me out one time, invited me to camp
- 22:25Speaker 6: years ago.
- 22:25Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 22:25Speaker 6: Yeah, but I was a four two, three forty guys,
- 22:28Speaker 6: so that's why I didn't have no special football skills
- 22:31Speaker 6: or anything.
- 22:31Speaker 3: But yeah, I do, like I do love the Bills.
- 22:34Speaker 6: But man, it's it's tough, Like over the last two seasons,
- 22:38Speaker 6: Like usually there's teams you know are gonna lose, you're
- 22:41Speaker 6: gonna your team's gonna play them and they and they're
- 22:43Speaker 6: gonna win. But the NFL has changed over the last
- 22:46Speaker 6: two years. Like it's like you just never know who's
- 22:48Speaker 6: actually gonna win these games. Like you could throw all
- 22:51Speaker 6: the stats out there and all the people who on
- 22:54Speaker 6: there and the contracts, who's got the who's spending the
- 22:57Speaker 6: most money on players, and it means absolutely nothing. So
- 23:01Speaker 6: I don't know, man, it's just uh, I'm just actually
- 23:04Speaker 6: starting to enjoy it again because for a long time
- 23:06Speaker 6: because of my my like I get those migrants from
- 23:09Speaker 6: the concussions and stuff, so it's kind of hard.
- 23:11Speaker 3: Sometimes it's hard for you to watch the game.
- 23:13Speaker 6: But the last two years I've been able to watch
- 23:15Speaker 6: since I actually once against since I've been getting treatment,
- 23:18Speaker 6: you know, and so it's it's just been first of all,
- 23:21Speaker 6: it's nice to watch a game and you don't already
- 23:23Speaker 6: know who's gonna win, right, Why do you watch that game?
- 23:26Speaker 3: You know?
- 23:26Speaker 6: Yeah, So no, I'm just excited about the season, like
- 23:30Speaker 6: and just being able to enjoy it again. And uh, actually,
- 23:33Speaker 6: I'm I'm happy to be here. I appreciate you guys
- 23:35Speaker 6: having me on here, But next time I'm gonna pick
- 23:38Speaker 6: I'm picking out stats. I mean, you're not gonna be
- 23:40Speaker 6: stacked me to death with it. I'm gonna beat you
- 23:42Speaker 6: on them stats.
- 23:42Speaker 1: Let me tell you something I didn't prepare for this, man,
- 23:45Speaker 1: nobody this show.
- 23:47Speaker 2: Don't give up like I do anywhere else.
- 23:50Speaker 1: But you know what, you're making a good audition there
- 23:52Speaker 1: where you might become a regular on this program.
- 23:55Speaker 2: How do you like that.
- 23:56Speaker 1: I'll put you on with a double hitter brother and
- 23:59Speaker 1: you'll be on too, and both of them.
- 24:00Speaker 2: Can you handle it? Handle it?
- 24:03Speaker 1: Boy, Marvin, you got a new teammate back in so
- 24:07Speaker 1: call they will person at George Ichord's watching it, and
- 24:09Speaker 1: George Iicord gets the last word on the Buffalo Bills,
- 24:12Speaker 1: although I'll slip one in the first.
- 24:13Speaker 2: Okay, tell you one thing.
- 24:16Speaker 1: You come from fourteen point line, yes, seventeen game season,
- 24:19Speaker 1: but this league humbles you pretty quick. That's all I
- 24:22Speaker 1: have to say. With the Ichord and I have some
- 24:23Speaker 1: different stuff. Well, you're gonna get the field of the show.
- 24:26Speaker 1: This is a show that's hard for a lot of
- 24:28Speaker 1: people to make because I do so much off the wall,
- 24:30Speaker 1: gun flinging stuff that nobody can handle it. But I
- 24:33Speaker 1: don't feel you're gonna do all right. You won't find
- 24:35Speaker 1: yourself a regular on this program. Brother, keep it up.
- 24:37Speaker 1: I only have another ten to twelve more topics to
- 24:39Speaker 1: get to and only about ninety minutes.
- 24:41Speaker 2: To get you up. But that's okay, all right, go ahead, George.
- 24:45Speaker 8: Well, you know the stats that I look at, it
- 24:48Speaker 8: obviously are some of the same ones as you guys
- 24:50Speaker 8: looked at. But anytime Josh Allen has only one hundred
- 24:53Speaker 8: and eighty yards passing, Josh Allen, two interceptions, sacked four times,
- 24:59Speaker 8: in a horrible back rating.
- 25:01Speaker 5: They're not gonna win.
- 25:02Speaker 8: And you know, credit give credit where it's due the
- 25:04Speaker 8: Falcons defense, and of course Pennix did a great job
- 25:08Speaker 8: at quarterback. I'll go back to those two stats that
- 25:10Speaker 8: my friend Candy said, third down efficiency two for nine
- 25:15Speaker 8: for Buffalo, zero for one fourth down, so two for ten,
- 25:20Speaker 8: very similar to what you unveiled earlier in our discussion. Candy,
- 25:25Speaker 8: that you're not gonna win games like that. But I
- 25:28Speaker 8: do agree that it is a long season and Atlanta
- 25:31Speaker 8: is playing better than previous years up to now. So
- 25:36Speaker 8: it's a long season. They will be there, the Bills,
- 25:38Speaker 8: but that was not one of their better performances, even though,
- 25:41Speaker 8: like you said, Scott, they did rally from being down.
- 25:44Speaker 8: I give them credit for that, but then things just
- 25:46Speaker 8: kind of dissipated after that. So Buffalo will be in
- 25:49Speaker 8: the playoffs, but so will Atlanta.
- 25:52Speaker 1: All right, well, let's continue on here. Let's go back
- 25:54Speaker 1: to let's talk about money paying for games. We're gonna
- 25:58Speaker 1: go back a little bit to the NBA playoffs. Why
- 26:01Speaker 1: do I say this because money talks no matter whenever
- 26:04Speaker 1: you want to talk about it. But get this, and
- 26:06Speaker 1: Nicks and the Celtics had a Game three playoff game
- 26:09Speaker 1: where the tickets are going anywhere between eight hundred dollars
- 26:14Speaker 1: of fifty four grand, the most expensive Knixt home game ever.
- 26:18Speaker 1: Who is the right mind would pay for tickets that much?
- 26:20Speaker 1: I don't know, Marvel, what do you think about eight
- 26:22Speaker 1: hundred to fifty four grand over at Madison Square Garden?
- 26:26Speaker 1: The most expensive game ever?
- 26:28Speaker 3: And this is against the Celtics.
- 26:31Speaker 2: Yeah, game three?
- 26:32Speaker 3: Yeah, listen. I grew up.
- 26:33Speaker 7: I grew up in LA and New York, and in
- 26:35Speaker 7: my time in New York. I can tell you those
- 26:38Speaker 7: people let them next boy lay Letos Knicks.
- 26:42Speaker 3: People in New York got bred to spend.
- 26:44Speaker 7: You got Wall Street, a lot of businesses out there, CEOs,
- 26:48Speaker 7: a lot of you know, titans of industry live out
- 26:50Speaker 7: there in New York. So the reality is the same
- 26:53Speaker 7: people who are spending that kind of money for the
- 26:55Speaker 7: Knicks are buying those tickets for the Yankees that are
- 26:57Speaker 7: right behind the home play. They'll trust me, they can
- 27:00Speaker 7: build the stadium in Madsion Square Garden whenever they want to.
- 27:03Speaker 7: There there's no shortage of New Yorkers willing to make
- 27:06Speaker 7: that investment.
- 27:08Speaker 8: Uh.
- 27:08Speaker 7: I mean, there's sports, family religion in America that are
- 27:11Speaker 7: like all the same level. Whether it's right or wrong.
- 27:14Speaker 7: People love their sports teams as much as they love
- 27:17Speaker 7: you know, their God and their and their brother. Uh.
- 27:19Speaker 3: It is what it is.
- 27:20Speaker 7: There's no we're passionate about We're passionate about sports and
- 27:24Speaker 7: you say that with our money. So yeah, it doesn't
- 27:26Speaker 7: surprise me. It's it's crazy when you think about, you know,
- 27:30Speaker 7: just the average family who want to go see a game.
- 27:32Speaker 7: That's that's bananas. But but it is what it is.
- 27:36Speaker 7: You know, only in America.
- 27:39Speaker 2: Keep using that all right, Well, go ahead.
- 27:44Speaker 6: Uh, I'm still baffled at these guys are spending that
- 27:48Speaker 6: much money at the tickets, like really, like I just
- 27:52Speaker 6: couldn't imagine how I'm just blown away.
- 27:55Speaker 3: I'm speechless right now. Guys, just please forgive me.
- 27:59Speaker 2: That one.
- 28:00Speaker 1: You don't have to feel too bad for this one,
- 28:01Speaker 1: because a lot of normal people would.
- 28:03Speaker 6: Be well, NFL wasn't wasn't good to me. You know,
- 28:08Speaker 6: growing up, I was a Cardinals.
- 28:09Speaker 3: Fan my whole life.
- 28:12Speaker 6: You know, they probably went to the playoffs twice in
- 28:14Speaker 6: my whole life, maybe three times. So like I grew
- 28:17Speaker 6: up in the same neighborhood that they were my This
- 28:19Speaker 6: is how old I am dating myself. My brother was
- 28:23Speaker 6: a paper boy, so we delivered the newspapers to them.
- 28:26Speaker 6: Yeah this was back in the you know, seventies, so yeah,
- 28:29Speaker 6: so yeah, they were always good to us. And so
- 28:32Speaker 6: now I don't cry houd they were doing good doing bad.
- 28:34Speaker 6: I've been the Fances even when they went to Phoenix.
- 28:37Speaker 6: I wind up. Actually, I used to run a camp
- 28:39Speaker 6: and I used to come and train with me some
- 28:41Speaker 6: of them. But I've always been just a fan of
- 28:43Speaker 6: the Cardinals since I was a kid, like I understand
- 28:46Speaker 6: how you can you have so man, these people like
- 28:48Speaker 6: they get so upset because their teams are losing. Like man,
- 28:52Speaker 6: I just still support them, my love and my support
- 28:54Speaker 6: them because they treated me like a human being when
- 28:57Speaker 6: I was like five years old.
- 28:59Speaker 3: You know.
- 29:00Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, George II coord you and I are too cheap.
- 29:03Speaker 1: We don't spend that kind of.
- 29:06Speaker 8: I we we were in Indianapolis and h we know
- 29:09Speaker 8: that story it Scott about getting tickets for Pacers.
- 29:12Speaker 5: In the playoffs.
- 29:13Speaker 2: But that kind of money.
- 29:15Speaker 5: No, no, never.
- 29:16Speaker 2: That wait until tip off and we got them right
- 29:19Speaker 2: and you didn't negotiate idead but keep you get keep going.
- 29:23Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 29:23Speaker 8: So the Knicks uh in Boston, two of the premier
- 29:26Speaker 8: franchises of course in the NBA, not so much the
- 29:29Speaker 8: Knicks of late but the but the tradition between those
- 29:32Speaker 8: two teams. Doesn't surprise me that tickets are that much,
- 29:35Speaker 8: really because like you said earlier, Marvin, I mean you
- 29:39Speaker 8: got a lot of wealthy people there in New York.
- 29:42Speaker 8: Boston's fans are unbelievably excited the last several years as
- 29:48Speaker 8: they won the championship the Celtics and sellout games always
- 29:51Speaker 8: at the New Boston Garden. I really think that what
- 29:55Speaker 8: you guys have said is true. They're squeezing out the
- 29:58Speaker 8: average fan. They're squeezing out the families to go to
- 30:01Speaker 8: the games, and that part is sad for me. That's
- 30:05Speaker 8: a that's a no no for me. H, Candy, Let's
- 30:10Speaker 8: face it.
- 30:11Speaker 4: I mean, it's not cheap to go to any sporting
- 30:14Speaker 4: event these days. While most of them there are a
- 30:17Speaker 4: couple that are you know, reasonable, but that is just ridiculous.
- 30:21Speaker 4: Those kind of prices is for the NDL, for the
- 30:24Speaker 4: National Drama League, but from I don't know, but there
- 30:34Speaker 4: are two those are also two teams that don't like
- 30:37Speaker 4: each other, and there's because there's fan bases are so
- 30:40Speaker 4: close together that that probably the supply and demand drove
- 30:45Speaker 4: that price up. You know, It's not like they were playing.
- 30:50Speaker 8: Well.
- 30:51Speaker 4: I mean like there's a lot of other teams from
- 30:54Speaker 4: the other coast that maybe they wouldn't have gotten the
- 30:57Speaker 4: same you know, like even if you're putting in like
- 31:00Speaker 4: the Bulls or the Timberwolves against the Boston you're not
- 31:04Speaker 4: gonna have the same supply and demand in the price
- 31:07Speaker 4: of the ticket. It's a marquee matchup for that fan base.
- 31:13Speaker 4: That's what's gonna drive just like that, Just like a
- 31:15Speaker 4: ticket if you were going to go to Michigan versus
- 31:18Speaker 4: Ohio State, like that ticket price is gonna be driven
- 31:21Speaker 4: up because it's a rivalry between the two schools.
- 31:27Speaker 1: All right, let's stay with the NBA. Pacer president Kevin
- 31:33Speaker 1: Pritchard confirms that Tyrese Haliburton will miss the entire twenty
- 31:37Speaker 1: five twenty six season. Some thoughts Marvin about the fact
- 31:41Speaker 1: that the Pacers aren't going to have this guy.
- 31:43Speaker 7: Yeah, you know, in basketball, you don't play five guys.
- 31:46Speaker 7: So when you lose a guy of his caliber, I mean,
- 31:49Speaker 7: he's a big part of their salary, cap, all Star Olympian,
- 31:55Speaker 7: a guy who's really evolved. That hurts them. That hurt
- 31:58Speaker 7: he's their best player. I mean, I said, you know,
- 32:00Speaker 7: he's one of their guys so that they really count
- 32:02Speaker 7: on and lean on. And you know, I don't I
- 32:05Speaker 7: don't follow the Patiers, but I know then because of him,
- 32:07Speaker 7: they've been in the playoffs obviously, and uh, I watched
- 32:10Speaker 7: the Olympics, but that's tremendous. That's a tremendous loss in
- 32:14Speaker 7: sports as competitive as it is, you know, it's all
- 32:17Speaker 7: a game adventures every sport, So when you lose a
- 32:19Speaker 7: player like that, it's tough to make that up, you know,
- 32:22Speaker 7: And so they put the team together based on you know,
- 32:27Speaker 7: their all star players. So you know, again, to lose
- 32:30Speaker 7: a guy who you've built around, who you build around,
- 32:32Speaker 7: is significant. And there's a lot of a lot of
- 32:35Speaker 7: people out there playing basketball. You just saw Russell Westbrook
- 32:38Speaker 7: get picked up. I'm sure they'll, you know, they're they
- 32:41Speaker 7: bring somebody in. But again, that's a significant loss and
- 32:45Speaker 7: it'd be tough for them to overcome that, I believe.
- 32:48Speaker 1: Yeah, we'll talk about Russell Westbrook more on the sports
- 32:50Speaker 1: and saying thanks Wednesday night, so stay with us. That'll
- 32:53Speaker 1: be one of our primary topics. Well, some thoughts about
- 32:56Speaker 1: Tyrese Alibert. I don't know how much you follow up Pacers.
- 32:59Speaker 1: If you don't, I don't know.
- 33:02Speaker 3: When it was playoffs start.
- 33:03Speaker 6: I make sure I followed, like just for me, I
- 33:07Speaker 6: kind of cheat, like Michael Jordan brought me to the
- 33:09Speaker 6: game and when he left, I left the game. Lebron, Yeah,
- 33:14Speaker 6: when he was playing, I found him by accident. That's
- 33:16Speaker 6: how help you know. Plus, you a track athlete, our
- 33:20Speaker 6: workouts are.
- 33:20Speaker 3: So grueling and bruling.
- 33:21Speaker 6: Like there's like six days a week, so we don't
- 33:24Speaker 6: really get time to really watch those kind of games.
- 33:26Speaker 6: But the truth is, like, yeah, Lebron brought me back
- 33:30Speaker 6: to the NBA, you know, And so now I've just
- 33:33Speaker 6: been trying to just enjoy all these young players. Man,
- 33:36Speaker 6: they're doing so many fabulous things, and I love how
- 33:38Speaker 6: they clean the sport up, Like like I just to
- 33:41Speaker 6: hate watching it and you see some guy get closed line,
- 33:44Speaker 6: you know, like you're playing basketball. Why is this guy
- 33:46Speaker 6: getting closed line? Why is he laying on the floor.
- 33:48Speaker 6: You know, that's a whole lot of money they taken
- 33:50Speaker 6: away from these players and from the franchises. But it
- 33:55Speaker 6: was something I was about to take. Which player was it?
- 33:56Speaker 3: Uh ah?
- 33:59Speaker 6: Man, I forgot. Don't know who's gonna place that guy
- 34:01Speaker 6: on those a lot of big shoes. I'm pretty sure
- 34:04Speaker 6: Indiana's going to be struggling this year. That's what that's
- 34:07Speaker 6: gonna boil down to, all right.
- 34:09Speaker 8: George, Yeah, that is a huge blow, no question about it.
- 34:14Speaker 8: Missing the whole season covering from surgery right achilles tendon.
- 34:19Speaker 8: You're taking nineteen twenty points away every night, You're taking
- 34:22Speaker 8: about four or five rebounds whatever in nine or ten assists.
- 34:26Speaker 8: I mean, you know this, this, these those kind of
- 34:29Speaker 8: stats really really stand out. Obviously, he's a very gifted
- 34:32Speaker 8: as athlete. Twenty five years old. He's done a terrific
- 34:35Speaker 8: job with the Pacers, and you know, the Pacers have
- 34:39Speaker 8: had good teams as we know, the last several years.
- 34:41Speaker 8: So this kind of puts up question mark, no question
- 34:44Speaker 8: about it. Pardon the punt on the season, because they're
- 34:48Speaker 8: gonna have their hands full trying to come up with
- 34:50Speaker 8: a lineup that replaces this guy. An All Star and
- 34:53Speaker 8: obviously a great player.
- 34:55Speaker 2: That heart.
- 34:56Speaker 3: Man can't replace that.
- 34:57Speaker 5: Heart, No, you can't. He has a have a heart,
- 35:00Speaker 5: of course, but yeah, a great heart.
- 35:03Speaker 2: Candy.
- 35:05Speaker 4: In the NBA Draft in twenty twenty, he was the
- 35:08Speaker 4: first went in the first round with a twelve pick overall.
- 35:13Speaker 4: He is actually from If you guys didn't know this,
- 35:16Speaker 4: he was actually born in Oshkosh, Wisconsin. He is from Wisconsin,
- 35:22Speaker 4: Yes he is. He is two times NBA All SAR,
- 35:27Speaker 4: two time NBA Third Team, NBA All Rookie, First Team,
- 35:31Speaker 4: NBA Assists Leader for twenty twenty four, second team All
- 35:35Speaker 4: Big Twelve back in twenty twenty, he they are gonna
- 35:40Speaker 4: miss him tremendously. He was that team and he was
- 35:44Speaker 4: the heart of that team, So trying to replace that
- 35:50Speaker 4: is very difficult. Like Marvin said, they only put five
- 35:54Speaker 4: on the court, So when you're missing one of your
- 35:57Speaker 4: top guys, then obviously it's the next man up mentality,
- 36:02Speaker 4: But normally the talent level drops quite a bit. So well,
- 36:10Speaker 4: it'll be interesting to see what Indiana who they have
- 36:14Speaker 4: to step into his shoes for this year, because those
- 36:19Speaker 4: are big shoes to fill.
- 36:20Speaker 1: I'll say one thing, Rick Carlisle as a coach, and
- 36:23Speaker 1: anybody can get around this problem, he will. We have
- 36:25Speaker 1: all actually Giraffe Miami. Heroll for the life. I guess
- 36:28Speaker 1: we know that what paper he likes to read.
- 36:29Speaker 3: So there you go.
- 36:30Speaker 1: So with that said, let's continue on George. We'll talk
- 36:33Speaker 1: about more guards in the NBA life without Dennis Schroeder
- 36:36Speaker 1: and Detroit. He's often the Sacramento Kings signed a two year,
- 36:40Speaker 1: twenty eight million deal with the Kings, So let's.
- 36:43Speaker 2: Talk about.
- 36:46Speaker 1: You know, and Michael Concisio, glad to have you on.
- 36:48Speaker 1: I'm looking forward to coming on your show and spreading
- 36:50Speaker 1: the Withdom. Don't worry, Michael we have a phone call soon.
- 36:53Speaker 1: Just let me know when you get your phone straight.
- 36:54Speaker 1: We're gonna make that happen. Another NBA expert, Marron get
- 36:57Speaker 1: used to, we're gonna be found in the NBA. R Michael,
- 37:00Speaker 1: let me know when you get your phone straight. And
- 37:01Speaker 1: also please come in on YouTube as well, and that
- 37:05Speaker 1: would be good. But I'm glad you popped in. Thank
- 37:07Speaker 1: you very much. But you can contribute in the chat
- 37:09Speaker 1: room with the topics. But it's not a matter of
- 37:11Speaker 1: if it's a matter of one, and it may be
- 37:12Speaker 1: certainly new. Think George, Dennis Schroeder, Detroit, how much will
- 37:15Speaker 1: the miss him? You get twenty eight million dollars, he's
- 37:17Speaker 1: going to be in one play for a little while.
- 37:19Speaker 1: Sacramento a team on the upright, Go ahead, George.
- 37:23Speaker 8: Well, yeah, I do not like the fact that he
- 37:26Speaker 8: was not retained. I mean he I think he played
- 37:30Speaker 8: around thirty games regular season for them. He had a
- 37:33Speaker 8: nice average almost eleven points per game, and he was
- 37:37Speaker 8: a very very good player off the bench for Bickerstaff
- 37:41Speaker 8: and the Pistons last year. But as it happens in
- 37:45Speaker 8: all of sports, and especially when you start forming your roster,
- 37:48Speaker 8: it's impossible to keep everybody for their assigned and sealed
- 37:53Speaker 8: for all those consecutive years. So you're going to see
- 37:55Speaker 8: some fluctuation, especially in the second half of the second unit.
- 38:00Speaker 8: I call it not the starting five, but perhaps you
- 38:02Speaker 8: will there too. Schroeder was a good ballplayer, good ball player.
- 38:06Speaker 5: I liked him. He's a good shooter. But you know what,
- 38:09Speaker 5: they went out and got a.
- 38:10Speaker 8: Couple other guys, you know, and LeVert and Duncan Robinson,
- 38:15Speaker 8: so we'll see what happens. Pistons are losing a little
- 38:18Speaker 8: bit of their depth and that does concern me. Scott,
- 38:20Speaker 8: and if there was a way, I wish they would
- 38:23Speaker 8: have would have kept Schroeder.
- 38:24Speaker 1: To be honest with you, well, it's okay if I
- 38:26Speaker 1: hold on you first, you're the one who obviously covers
- 38:28Speaker 1: the Piston. The Detroit Pistons have been great for me
- 38:31Speaker 1: over the years, so I always have a special place
- 38:33Speaker 1: and I have a like you, I have a piece
- 38:35Speaker 1: of their floor in my hallway, commemoring the bad Boys
- 38:39Speaker 1: era and going back to Matt Golbeck and obviously Bill Wickett,
- 38:44Speaker 1: and then of course they have Kevin greg I think, yes,
- 38:47Speaker 1: those people have always been great to me so well obviously,
- 38:51Speaker 1: you know, do you follow the Pistons much? Dennis Schroeder
- 38:53Speaker 1: is a good player, he really is.
- 38:55Speaker 6: Well, I had a guy I used to train, Kevin
- 38:58Speaker 6: Knox Senior playing there, Kevin Knox Junior. I know he
- 39:02Speaker 6: was with Detroit for a little bit.
- 39:04Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 39:04Speaker 6: Yeah, So I followed him for a little bit when
- 39:06Speaker 6: he was with him, But after that then once they
- 39:08Speaker 6: got rid of him, I believe haven't followed him too much.
- 39:12Speaker 2: All right, no big deal, that's fair enough, Candy.
- 39:15Speaker 4: You know he's actually he was born in Germany and
- 39:22Speaker 4: he played over there for a little while. Uh, but
- 39:27Speaker 4: you know he was drafted in the NBA first round,
- 39:31Speaker 4: seventeenth pick overall.
- 39:33Speaker 8: Uh.
- 39:34Speaker 4: He's played with a number of different teams here. He
- 39:37Speaker 4: also is he was he was most improved player back
- 39:42Speaker 4: in the day. So Detroit didn't have him long. But yes,
- 39:49Speaker 4: anytime you take somebody that's been around the league for
- 39:52Speaker 4: a while, they they're a proven player and they have
- 39:56Speaker 4: a veteran they're a veteran presence that you're gonna miss.
- 40:00Speaker 4: Stat important Marvin.
- 40:04Speaker 3: Yeah, Kenny hit it on the head.
- 40:06Speaker 7: I was gonna lead to with he's a veteran player,
- 40:08Speaker 7: he's a tough player, gritty player, physical player, a guy
- 40:11Speaker 7: who's not afraid to mix it up. You need that
- 40:13Speaker 7: kind of guy on a team. So, you know, in
- 40:16Speaker 7: a league full of good players, where good players get
- 40:19Speaker 7: cut all the time. I mean, if he wants to
- 40:21Speaker 7: just like Russ, I mean he'll he'll, he'll be somewhere soon.
- 40:25Speaker 7: But he he is a player who has it, who
- 40:27Speaker 7: can impact the game. I enjoyed watching. I think he
- 40:30Speaker 7: was with the Lakers, played well with Lebron and he's
- 40:34Speaker 7: the real deal.
- 40:37Speaker 3: I'm sorry I did he come from.
- 40:39Speaker 6: I know he played in Germany, but he wasn't a
- 40:41Speaker 6: resident there was he military baby or.
- 40:45Speaker 7: I think, well, now I think he's German. I think
- 40:47Speaker 7: he's just Yeah, he's the.
- 40:49Speaker 4: Sole owner of his German German hometown team basketball Loewen
- 40:54Speaker 4: Brushwig of the Basketball bush linga whatever, and he's the
- 40:59Speaker 4: majority own the team since twenty eighteen.
- 41:02Speaker 5: Wow, good for him.
- 41:04Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I'll just say one thing.
- 41:05Speaker 1: I'm glad the guy got paid and he hit twenty
- 41:07Speaker 1: eight million dollars in a good job and pistons in
- 41:10Speaker 1: the postseasons. Oh, we're gonna go to our first nons
- 41:12Speaker 1: for topic of the night. I know Marvin loves these.
- 41:15Speaker 1: Oh my god, what.
- 41:19Speaker 2: I'll tell you.
- 41:20Speaker 3: I don't want to go to cancel Scott. I don't
- 41:22Speaker 3: want to get you canceled. Man.
- 41:23Speaker 1: You know I always gotta cancel me. Man, Not over
- 41:26Speaker 1: this topic. I could see other ones they might attempt you,
- 41:28Speaker 1: but not over this one.
- 41:30Speaker 2: I don't know. I'll want you be the judge of that. Marven.
- 41:31Speaker 1: You're gonna be my agent when it comes to that stuff.
- 41:34Speaker 1: I love having guys like you as an agent. And
- 41:35Speaker 1: of course we'll have a lot of good attorneys dealing
- 41:37Speaker 1: with them with all this brain injury stuff that I
- 41:40Speaker 1: may have.
- 41:40Speaker 7: Now, I went to law school thinking I was gonna
- 41:43Speaker 7: be an agent, and that did that was That's not
- 41:45Speaker 7: I wasn't it for me.
- 41:47Speaker 1: Don't worry after your first tacto. Way you handled that
- 41:49Speaker 1: first topic, this will be easier. That will be other
- 41:51Speaker 1: ones than are, but not this one. All right, and well,
- 41:54Speaker 1: was gonna find out our first.
- 41:55Speaker 2: Notch for topic of the night? You ready? There we go?
- 42:00Speaker 1: Or Texas is banned China, Russia, Iran in North Korea
- 42:06Speaker 1: from buying land and the state people. They have banned
- 42:10Speaker 1: from buying land in the state. Why because here's what
- 42:14Speaker 1: they're looking to do with the law aiming to protect
- 42:17Speaker 1: Texas security and businesses.
- 42:20Speaker 2: Homes, farms, land used for mining and water.
- 42:24Speaker 1: Marvin, Texas is trying to make sure that they got
- 42:27Speaker 1: to protect their interests.
- 42:28Speaker 3: You like that idea, I listen, I'm with that completely.
- 42:31Speaker 2: I don't.
- 42:32Speaker 7: I don't understand why we're allowing these other countries to
- 42:35Speaker 7: buy land, farmland, you know, get get any kind of
- 42:38Speaker 7: minerals or precious stones. Why would we want them to
- 42:41Speaker 7: come do that? Why would we allow them to come
- 42:43Speaker 7: do that? That's insane to me, and even from a
- 42:46Speaker 7: national security standpoint, it doesn't make sense. You know, we
- 42:49Speaker 7: shouldn't allow Listen, I'm not for really allowing any other
- 42:53Speaker 7: country to come set up shop and take advantage of
- 42:56Speaker 7: our natural resources here.
- 42:58Speaker 3: I don't know why it's even allowed to be with you.
- 43:01Speaker 7: To me, it's just a threat, especially in this day
- 43:03Speaker 7: and age of technology, and you know Espionade, and I
- 43:07Speaker 7: mean it's real.
- 43:08Speaker 3: That stuff is real. It's not just on Netflix. That's real.
- 43:11Speaker 7: That's this stuff happens, you know. So yeah, I don't
- 43:15Speaker 7: pudo Listen. I'm not I'm not a fan of the
- 43:18Speaker 7: guy who's running Texas, but I get it, and I'm
- 43:21Speaker 7: with and I'm with them on that, all right.
- 43:24Speaker 6: Well they will, oh man, I'll tell you what. I
- 43:28Speaker 6: agree with that one hundred percent, and uh, I'll take
- 43:30Speaker 6: it even a step further. There was times where I
- 43:34Speaker 6: tried to buy a house. It was like twenty twelve
- 43:37Speaker 6: or something. It was after that housing market crash. I went,
- 43:40Speaker 6: I made a full price offer on a home and
- 43:44Speaker 6: I didn't get it, and I found out later they
- 43:45Speaker 6: sold it to a company for cheaper than the price
- 43:48Speaker 6: that I offer for it. And so there's these companies
- 43:50Speaker 6: that's coming through these cities and they're buying two or
- 43:52Speaker 6: three thousand dollars two or three thousand houses at a
- 43:54Speaker 6: time with the spipe of a pen, which is causing
- 43:58Speaker 6: the rental prices to go up all through the country
- 44:00Speaker 6: because they're now controlling the all of the surplus of houses.
- 44:05Speaker 6: So I agree with that one hundred percent, but they
- 44:08Speaker 6: should go a step further and stop these companies from
- 44:10Speaker 6: buying up all the real estate.
- 44:12Speaker 5: Okay, George, Yeah, it's hard to not support that.
- 44:18Speaker 8: Governor Abbott, and of course the Texas legislature whoever worked
- 44:23Speaker 8: on this proposal, and you guys bring up an excellent point.
- 44:26Speaker 5: I mean, when you know it's one.
- 44:29Speaker 8: Thing to be an open country, open borders and open
- 44:32Speaker 8: business if you will open we're open for business, as
- 44:34Speaker 8: it's saying used to be. But when you're taking it
- 44:37Speaker 8: too far and then you're gouging people. You're gouging the Americans,
- 44:41Speaker 8: our own country, our own citizens, and things like this
- 44:44Speaker 8: are happening, and you're driving prices up. Like you mentioned,
- 44:47Speaker 8: those things, I will not accept. And I and I
- 44:50Speaker 8: know they're targeting these five so called nations, but I'm
- 44:53Speaker 8: sure there's many many other ones too that are trying
- 44:57Speaker 8: to make cheap land deals or underhanded deals, or control
- 45:00Speaker 8: our minerals and resources. So no, I I I definitely
- 45:05Speaker 8: don't want that. So I'm in agreement also on this one, Scott.
- 45:10Speaker 4: The ban applies to governments, companies, and individuals domiciled in
- 45:17Speaker 4: the listed countries, So it bans entities from China, Russia, Iran,
- 45:24Speaker 4: North Korea, and other governor designated hostile foreign adversaries. The
- 45:31Speaker 4: restrictions do not apply to US citizens or lawful permanent
- 45:35Speaker 4: residents Green card holders, regardless of their country of origin. Now,
- 45:41Speaker 4: I will say that it is there, they are fighting it.
- 45:46Speaker 4: There's it's facing legal challenges, and there's they're also facing
- 45:51Speaker 4: a similar law passed in Florida and is also facing
- 45:56Speaker 4: legal challenges. But yes, I am opposed to foreign countries,
- 46:04Speaker 4: foreign even foreign businesses owning land here. One of the
- 46:12Speaker 4: one of the problems that they're the legal is facing
- 46:16Speaker 4: is they think it's gonna could lead to wide spread
- 46:21Speaker 4: racial profiling. So it just has to be careful. There
- 46:25Speaker 4: is just some legal issues. They got to figure it out.
- 46:28Speaker 4: But if you're here legally, you should be able to
- 46:33Speaker 4: buy here, you know, but if you're not then you shouldn't.
- 46:38Speaker 4: And if you're not living here, you shouldn't own land here.
- 46:42Speaker 4: You can buy companies and stuff like that, but you
- 46:45Speaker 4: can't own the land here. That that I just I oppose.
- 46:50Speaker 3: Oh I got another one for you, if you don't mind,
- 46:52Speaker 3: go ahead. Yeah.
- 46:54Speaker 6: Actually, when I first moved to La out I remember
- 46:58Speaker 6: I wanted this porsch.
- 46:59Speaker 3: I had to have it. Had just had to have one.
- 47:01Speaker 6: I found one, right, So, my poorch guy, he was
- 47:03Speaker 6: teaching me a lot of the tricks of the trade
- 47:05Speaker 6: around here and what they were doing. The students were
- 47:09Speaker 6: coming in from other countries. They can bring all the
- 47:12Speaker 6: cash they can bring with them so they can they'll
- 47:15Speaker 6: buy up all the houses, the cars. You know, these
- 47:17Speaker 6: are students at usc UCLA around here right around with Lamborghinis,
- 47:21Speaker 6: you know. But that's the way that they get the
- 47:22Speaker 6: money into the country. So they really got to stop
- 47:24Speaker 6: it over there, you know they you know, because that's
- 47:26Speaker 6: really the money larder's coming from the students coming from school.
- 47:30Speaker 3: That's the truth of it. Yeah.
- 47:31Speaker 2: Great, So going to can't you go to Michael Concishow's comment, Chervan,
- 47:35Speaker 2: I really liked this one.
- 47:35Speaker 4: Breed at Please quiet as kep. Let's take care of us,
- 47:39Speaker 4: then look out for others. Imagine if we all as
- 47:42Speaker 4: USA citizens can thrive, how powerful we would be as
- 47:47Speaker 4: a nation.
- 47:48Speaker 2: I mean, no bull Eye conci show.
- 47:51Speaker 1: Just let me know privately if your cell phone fixed,
- 47:54Speaker 1: you got it all figured out. I'm gold hairs and
- 47:56Speaker 1: have you on in approximately two weeks. Okay, we'll go
- 47:59Speaker 1: from there. Keep it up in the chat room, Michael.
- 48:01Speaker 1: We appreciate your participation. It's unanimous all the way around.
- 48:05Speaker 1: I'm on board with the rest of the group here.
- 48:07Speaker 1: All right, one more topic. We're gonna go to a
- 48:08Speaker 1: station break shortly. We have a lot more to get
- 48:11Speaker 1: to here on the Sports Exchange, newport The new Portland
- 48:15Speaker 1: WNBA team's name has been revealed. The Portland Fire, the
- 48:20Speaker 1: league's fifteenth team, will revive the name of the original
- 48:23Speaker 1: Portland Fire, honoring the franchise that played from two thousand
- 48:28Speaker 1: to two thousand and two. It does make sense. Think
- 48:30Speaker 1: about it, everybody. They have the Portland Timbers, and you
- 48:33Speaker 1: all know that fire and would go together. Marve all right,
- 48:39Speaker 1: well here, you know, you lead off with it, then
- 48:40Speaker 1: we'll go to Marvin. How do you like that analogy?
- 48:43Speaker 6: Well, boo, come, I was actually about to say, you
- 48:46Speaker 6: know what, that could be a lot more creative than that.
- 48:49Speaker 6: And then when you said the original team with the Fire,
- 48:51Speaker 6: and I backed off. Well, sorry, now that you I'm back,
- 48:55Speaker 6: I'll take that.
- 48:56Speaker 1: I don't care. All right, you got fire and timber.
- 48:58Speaker 1: Now that you stepped up, you get to talk about
- 49:00Speaker 1: first time. I'm going to Marburn.
- 49:01Speaker 3: You see what you see?
- 49:02Speaker 6: All these forest fires we have here in la We
- 49:04Speaker 6: you know, fireing timbers. It's just a bad topic around here.
- 49:08Speaker 6: Taboo taboo.
- 49:09Speaker 2: Yeah, well we're in Portland, man.
- 49:11Speaker 1: For you, I'm talking about like fire, We're talking Portland.
- 49:15Speaker 1: We're talking about the name of a team. Will get
- 49:17Speaker 1: used to be talking this low because.
- 49:19Speaker 2: I do it out here. I get to be a
- 49:21Speaker 2: nice guy to your show because I've.
- 49:22Speaker 3: Sent it in this CT.
- 49:24Speaker 1: I have CT okay in a different way. Okay, and
- 49:28Speaker 1: I think it's a three ways of ways to describe it.
- 49:32Speaker 6: They're gonna come up with it. We're gonna come up
- 49:34Speaker 6: with a better name. Is get a petition going and
- 49:35Speaker 6: we're gonna change that name. How about that?
- 49:37Speaker 2: All right?
- 49:38Speaker 1: But meanwhile, stay out point with the topic. You like
- 49:43Speaker 1: Portland Fire? Do you like the Portland Timbers? No, this
- 49:50Speaker 1: ain't the La fire Man. We're going up to the
- 49:53Speaker 1: Pacific Northwest.
- 49:54Speaker 6: You don't like It's the Bigfoot, the bigfoots, bigfoot, a
- 49:58Speaker 6: lot of bigfoots, satas watches and stuff.
- 50:00Speaker 3: We're up there the Bigfoots.
- 50:02Speaker 2: What are they telling you to move there?
- 50:05Speaker 3: No, they got a new name name, you know.
- 50:07Speaker 1: But you got big mouth talking to you?
- 50:11Speaker 2: Got me? I'm big mouth, motor mouth man. I'm loving it.
- 50:14Speaker 2: I love this group.
- 50:16Speaker 1: Oh you don't like to name Portland Fire?
- 50:20Speaker 2: That's for me.
- 50:21Speaker 3: He's still talking to me. I already blocked that one out.
- 50:26Speaker 2: I don't.
- 50:28Speaker 1: Obviously he don't like it all right, marvel anything. Listen,
- 50:31Speaker 1: this guy got personality.
- 50:32Speaker 2: I like it. That's coming back on here.
- 50:34Speaker 7: If this was the original team name, then I get it.
- 50:37Speaker 7: They probably have a small following they want to reconnect to.
- 50:40Speaker 7: Smart for marking the reasons. Listen, this is great for
- 50:43Speaker 7: the w NBA. It's a testament to their growth right now.
- 50:46Speaker 7: I mean, even though they've been in in existence for
- 50:49Speaker 7: over twenty years, you know, they're still in their infancy.
- 50:52Speaker 7: You know, they're still trying to figure things out. They're
- 50:55Speaker 7: going through a new CBA. I tell you like this,
- 50:57Speaker 7: whether you like it or not. The best thing that
- 50:59Speaker 7: happened to the w n B A is Caitlin Clark.
- 51:02Speaker 7: You know, the rivalry with Andrew Reese is a good
- 51:05Speaker 7: thing for the league.
- 51:06Speaker 3: I believe.
- 51:07Speaker 7: I don't like how the media purchased it as a
- 51:09Speaker 7: race thing. I don't think it's that at all between
- 51:12Speaker 7: those two. But again, they're trying to recreate that Burden
- 51:15Speaker 7: magic thing. You know, listen right ride that Clayton Clark,
- 51:19Speaker 7: Caitlin Clark wave the best you can follow the path
- 51:22Speaker 7: at the NBA, in the NFL, go global, get profitable,
- 51:26Speaker 7: make some money, get these girls paid. But yeah, This
- 51:29Speaker 7: is a good thing for Oregon. Oregon is a big,
- 51:32Speaker 7: big sports state. Being a packed twelve guy myself. I've
- 51:35Speaker 7: been to Oregon a couple of times, and I can
- 51:37Speaker 7: tell you those fans out there are real, So kudos
- 51:40Speaker 7: to them. I hope they're successful and I hope the
- 51:43Speaker 7: w n b A continues to grow well.
- 51:46Speaker 1: I tell you I covered the Portland trail blas as
- 51:48Speaker 1: many years ago when they were looking at when they
- 51:50Speaker 1: went out there, and they treated me well when I
- 51:52Speaker 1: was over to Portland. Telliseam during rip city and not
- 51:56Speaker 1: obviously with George, and I know Chauncy Phillips is there.
- 51:58Speaker 1: Portland's a great place. I enjoy my time up there.
- 52:00Speaker 1: They see me well, all right, I continue to thank
- 52:03Speaker 1: Mike appreciate that. Oh yeah, I can put his comments
- 52:07Speaker 1: up in the chat too. This guy's on a roll.
- 52:08Speaker 1: We got to get him out there social promote, conceiitio
- 52:10Speaker 1: go ahead, George, he.
- 52:12Speaker 5: Says, scott is great.
- 52:13Speaker 8: Do not like the name, but Portland has a great
- 52:15Speaker 8: NBA history and it's great for the WNBA and for
- 52:18Speaker 8: the Portland community. Yeah, I Portland is a great basketball town.
- 52:22Speaker 8: I'm so glad that the WNBA is going back there.
- 52:26Speaker 8: I don't have a problem with the Fire. Oh my god,
- 52:28Speaker 8: I'm dating myself. But I could go back to a
- 52:30Speaker 8: team called the Chicago Fire, which I believe was a
- 52:34Speaker 8: USFL or was it one of those leagues a football name.
- 52:38Speaker 8: But the Portland Fire Portland Timber those I can live
- 52:42Speaker 8: with either one of those two names. But the important
- 52:45Speaker 8: thing is, yeah, that the ladies in the WNBA and
- 52:47Speaker 8: they continue the growth of that sport because they have
- 52:50Speaker 8: such tremendous talent, such tremendous young young women coming out
- 52:55Speaker 8: of the college ranks and playing in that league. So
- 52:57Speaker 8: I'm looking forward to Portland being back in there and
- 52:59Speaker 8: then and then I'm looking forward to another city closer
- 53:02Speaker 8: to my interest.
- 53:03Speaker 2: I leave it alone or don't worry. I got references.
- 53:06Speaker 2: I don't stay the cat out.
- 53:07Speaker 1: Of the bag on that when you sick that bad,
- 53:09Speaker 1: really seriously, really don't do it, all right, Candy, go ahead.
- 53:15Speaker 4: So the Portland Fire they originally started back in they
- 53:20Speaker 4: were there in two thousand to two thousand and two.
- 53:24Speaker 4: They got their name for the Great Fire of Portland, Maine,
- 53:28Speaker 4: which was in back in eighteen sixty six. Now, I
- 53:33Speaker 4: will say on September eighteenth, twenty twenty four, Portland was
- 53:38Speaker 4: officially awarded a franchise, which will be the WNBA's fifteenth team. Now,
- 53:44Speaker 4: I want to say, on June twenty sixth of this year,
- 53:48Speaker 4: the team surpassed ten thousand season ticket deposits. That is
- 53:55Speaker 4: really great for the WNBA. July fifteenth is when they
- 54:00Speaker 4: named that. They announced that they would be named the
- 54:03Speaker 4: Portland Fire. But to have ten thousand season ticket already
- 54:09Speaker 4: sold and you know the team isn't even playing yet,
- 54:13Speaker 4: that is great, great news for the WNBA.
- 54:17Speaker 2: Yeah, it really is.
- 54:18Speaker 1: But that said, we're going to a station break Candy.
- 54:20Speaker 1: When we come back, we'll talk about our feature topic
- 54:22Speaker 1: of that like the Detroit Lions and at Kansas City Chiefs.
- 54:25Speaker 1: Whill we come back a lot more to get through, Candy.
- 54:27Speaker 3: Go ahead.

- 56:41Speaker 4: Thank you, Becky, Scott Candy.
- 56:43Speaker 1: Well done. Let's talk about a feature top of the night.
- 56:46Speaker 1: George Iicorn, by the way, will be covering Detroit Lions
- 56:52Speaker 1: and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers mondaynight. Problem with Icorn what
- 56:55Speaker 1: he tells back, he'll definitely be giving a report on
- 56:58Speaker 1: the game, but I was feeling he'll be targeted for
- 57:00Speaker 1: Fire Up next week and then they'll talk about it
- 57:03Speaker 1: as well another night because we're gonna have a loaded agenda.
- 57:06Speaker 1: We're hoping to have making price on right Candy next week,
- 57:08Speaker 1: so that'll send George probably over to Fire Up for
- 57:10Speaker 1: one week anyways. But meanwhile, willing going anywhere, he'd come
- 57:14Speaker 1: out here every week and he's gonna be meeting a
- 57:15Speaker 1: lot of people. Now I have a quicker way to
- 57:19Speaker 1: promote his call by putting them on these primetime shows. Anyways,
- 57:22Speaker 1: let's talk about the Lions and the Kansas City Chiefs.
- 57:25Speaker 1: We'll take it down this particular road. They lose to
- 57:28Speaker 1: the Kansas City Chiefs thirty to seventeen. They get Tampa
- 57:32Speaker 1: Monday night. Bryan Brown incident, Oh my goodness, that was
- 57:35Speaker 1: not a good look people, with what he did to
- 57:39Speaker 1: Juju Smith Schuster. We're gonna go a lot of different ways.
- 57:42Speaker 1: Dan Campbell didn't like it. He gets a one game
- 57:44Speaker 1: suspension for it. So as we go, and we'll also
- 57:48Speaker 1: talk about some of the other mistakes. And now I'm
- 57:49Speaker 1: gonna turn over to Marvin first. In that particular game, okay,
- 57:53Speaker 1: the Lions were playing up hill the whole time to
- 57:56Speaker 1: begin with, and to me, they were running.
- 58:00Speaker 2: To me, it looked like they were running behind all night.
- 58:02Speaker 1: Aiden Hutchinson's personal follow the roofing the passer called in
- 58:06Speaker 1: help at all with Patrick Mahomet, Why did you do it?
- 58:09Speaker 1: We all know about the highly publicized Bryan Branch scuffle
- 58:13Speaker 1: and the Dan Campbell gamble on fourth down that failed
- 58:16Speaker 1: when Mohamma Saint. I'm a Ross Saint Brown dopter fourteen
- 58:20Speaker 1: year pass and it didn't help matters any either. But
- 58:23Speaker 1: then they also had an illegal formation on Jared Doff
- 58:26Speaker 1: that was actually overturned in New York that led to
- 58:29Speaker 1: a lunchdown reception that was negated. So with that said,
- 58:33Speaker 1: we'll talk about that. I'll follow it up about what
- 58:35Speaker 1: we can expect Monday night. I should also point out
- 58:38Speaker 1: another nugget too, that Aiden Hutchinson's get this. On September seventeenth,
- 58:46Speaker 1: he tied a franchise record by producing a quarterback hit
- 58:49Speaker 1: in seventeen straight games. Take note Bucks quarterback Baker Mayfield,
- 58:54Speaker 1: because I'm going to tell you one thing, it's hard
- 58:57Speaker 1: to believe to this date that the Daxonville Jaguars passed
- 58:59Speaker 1: on a Hunchinson. All right, George, we're gonna let you
- 59:01Speaker 1: take the lead on this and then we'll I know what,
- 59:05Speaker 1: I'm gonna put all the facts out there so I
- 59:06Speaker 1: don't have to go back and get them. The Lions
- 59:08Speaker 1: have scored thirty plus points and nine of their last
- 59:11Speaker 1: home ten home games. Now they'll need that Monday night
- 59:16Speaker 1: to get to Tampa Bay Bucks to try to go
- 59:18Speaker 1: into the bye week five and two a lot of information.
- 59:20Speaker 1: If I hit you at too much of it, no problem.
- 59:23Speaker 1: Just go back here at about the one hour mark,
- 59:25Speaker 1: and then you can go ahead and find it on
- 59:27Speaker 1: our YouTube channel and then you can get it all.
- 59:29Speaker 1: You'll have plenty of time before Monday night. Okay, George,
- 59:32Speaker 1: you're gonna be there, but let's first you're gonna talk
- 59:35Speaker 1: about the Kansas City game, and then we're gonna talk
- 59:38Speaker 1: about the bugs and all the facts that I hit
- 59:39Speaker 1: you with. No restart necessary by anybody. I gave it
- 59:42Speaker 1: to you. Go ahead, George.
- 59:44Speaker 8: Yeah, Well, that game against Kansas City obviously had a
- 59:48Speaker 8: lot of a lot of stuff going on at one time.
- 59:51Speaker 8: As you laid it out, Scott, the Lions were battling
- 59:55Speaker 8: from behind, and you're right, they look like they were
- 59:57Speaker 8: looking over their shoulders the whole game. They probably were,
- 1:00:00Speaker 8: because Kansas City was pretty damn ferocious defensively and offensively.
- 1:00:07Speaker 8: I don't want to get into some of those calls
- 1:00:08Speaker 8: because some of them were controversial. Obviously, the Detroit fans
- 1:00:13Speaker 8: and some of the media here in town are just
- 1:00:15Speaker 8: all bitch and moaning about the lack of a penalty
- 1:00:18Speaker 8: on Kansas City? What right did what right did the
- 1:00:22Speaker 8: officials have to call New York into the situation?
- 1:00:26Speaker 5: And you know, and other stuff like that.
- 1:00:27Speaker 8: But the bottom line is this, You're not going to
- 1:00:30Speaker 8: beat Kansas City when you're leading Rushier Gibbs had just
- 1:00:34Speaker 8: sixty five yards and you're not going to beat them
- 1:00:37Speaker 8: if Jamison Williams only had sixty some yards as.
- 1:00:41Speaker 5: You're leading receiver.
- 1:00:43Speaker 8: I mean, those stats alone, those stats alone illustrate the
- 1:00:46Speaker 8: problem that Detroit was having, and that was with the
- 1:00:50Speaker 8: tight defense and the aggressive defense that the Chiefs threw
- 1:00:54Speaker 8: out at them. There's no question about it. The Chiefs
- 1:00:57Speaker 8: were aiming for this. Obviously they went into and three
- 1:01:00Speaker 8: and Detroit was going in.
- 1:01:01Speaker 5: Four and one. But I'll tell you what, it was
- 1:01:04Speaker 5: a hell of a game.
- 1:01:05Speaker 8: But the Chiefs really showed who actually controlled that game
- 1:01:09Speaker 8: and offense and defense as far as Monday Night goes, Yeah,
- 1:01:13Speaker 8: this is gonna be a heck of a game. You're right, Scott.
- 1:01:15Speaker 8: I mean, you know, Tampa Bay is loaded right now.
- 1:01:18Speaker 8: Mayfield's playing great golf. Of course is a great quarterback
- 1:01:21Speaker 8: as we know in Detroit. So that is gonna be
- 1:01:24Speaker 8: I think that's gonna be an offensive display on Monday
- 1:01:27Speaker 8: night too. It's going to be lights out as far
- 1:01:30Speaker 8: as the points going on that board scoreboard. But I'm
- 1:01:35Speaker 8: gonna listen back now. I'm interested knowing you know. The
- 1:01:37Speaker 8: rest of your panel is how everybody feels about this.
- 1:01:40Speaker 1: Well, let me add another nugget before I turn it
- 1:01:42Speaker 1: over to Marvin Powell. Okay, the team's went out there,
- 1:01:45Speaker 1: put the blooprint out there for everybody to stop the
- 1:01:47Speaker 1: lines with that immaculate performance on Sunday night. They really
- 1:01:52Speaker 1: really did, so go ahead, Marvin. Okay, let's put Concisio
- 1:01:56Speaker 1: back up there. This guy's on a roll. I love
- 1:01:58Speaker 1: it when guy's on a roll. That Marvin's comment after that,
- 1:02:01Speaker 1: Go ahead, Candy Well Georgie read it, and then we'll
- 1:02:04Speaker 1: go to market.
- 1:02:05Speaker 8: Sure, the NFL seems to go in the direction of
- 1:02:08Speaker 8: parody due to injuries and lack of the running game.
- 1:02:11Speaker 8: Coaching does make a difference. See New England Pats. Jerry
- 1:02:15Speaker 8: Jones needs to be tested for the illegal substance.
- 1:02:18Speaker 1: Okay, that's pretty hard to follow, but we will say.
- 1:02:23Speaker 1: Let's put his opinion out there, will standpoint with the topic.
- 1:02:25Speaker 2: Go ahead, Marvin.
- 1:02:26Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:02:27Speaker 7: In regards to Detroit I'm a believer. Dan Campbell has
- 1:02:30Speaker 7: established real culture, like real culture, and you see that
- 1:02:35Speaker 7: there's played out with the players and how and how
- 1:02:38Speaker 7: the games are going offensively, defensively.
- 1:02:40Speaker 3: This is a tough team. This is a very tough team.
- 1:02:43Speaker 7: They lost some players, they lost some coaches, and they're
- 1:02:46Speaker 7: still making plays and still balling in regardless of them,
- 1:02:49Speaker 7: you know, losen to the Chiefs. The NFL has a problem.
- 1:02:52Speaker 7: And that problem is that the Chiefs are a wounded animal,
- 1:02:55Speaker 7: all right, and you don't want to see you don't
- 1:02:57Speaker 7: want to go against the wounded animal. If you look
- 1:02:59Speaker 7: at Pat Mahomes, if you watch his press conferences, you
- 1:03:01Speaker 7: can see his energy. He's I mean he has he
- 1:03:04Speaker 7: has a high degree of emotional intelligence and he always
- 1:03:07Speaker 7: says the right thing. But you can tell this guy's
- 1:03:09Speaker 7: burning up. I can tell when I'm watching them, you know.
- 1:03:12Speaker 7: So I expect k c to come back this, you know,
- 1:03:17Speaker 7: as we get into the second or third part of
- 1:03:18Speaker 7: the season. I expect k c UH to improve and
- 1:03:21Speaker 7: play better. I think that they're going to be challenged
- 1:03:24Speaker 7: within their own division. The Raiders, the Chargers, these teams
- 1:03:29Speaker 7: are real well they have to heard it. But the
- 1:03:32Speaker 7: Chargers and the other team vision. Anyway, winding animal in
- 1:03:38Speaker 7: regards to my my USC brother Juju Schuster uh Smith Schuster,
- 1:03:42Speaker 7: who was assaulted after the game, that's a horrible that's horrible.
- 1:03:46Speaker 3: There's no room for that in the game. Listen, listen.
- 1:03:49Speaker 7: It's a violent game. I get it. You know, things
- 1:03:52Speaker 7: happen you go out there. But you can kill somebody
- 1:03:54Speaker 7: in the football fiel.
- 1:03:54Speaker 3: We've seen that.
- 1:03:55Speaker 7: Unfortunately, we don't want that, but but it's real like that.
- 1:03:58Speaker 7: And obviously we understand the dangers of seeds, as Will
- 1:04:01Speaker 7: has talked to us about his situation.
- 1:04:03Speaker 3: But the reality is it's.
- 1:04:05Speaker 7: A violent game in tempers flair, and at the end
- 1:04:08Speaker 7: of the game, it's realistic that you're gonna have some
- 1:04:11Speaker 7: kind of negative energy toward another player. That's normal, I mean,
- 1:04:14Speaker 7: for you know, for a hundred years, that's probably been
- 1:04:16Speaker 7: the case. But you don't do that, you know, you don't.
- 1:04:18Speaker 2: You don't.
- 1:04:18Speaker 7: You don't start a fight after the game when you
- 1:04:21Speaker 7: have everybody on the field, helmets off, media, families, coaches,
- 1:04:26Speaker 7: That's that's just not the look. Within the football game,
- 1:04:29Speaker 7: you have plenty of opportunity to assault somebody within a
- 1:04:32Speaker 7: football game. You have plenty of opportunity to go out
- 1:04:34Speaker 7: there and lay somebody out here and give somebody a
- 1:04:37Speaker 7: good old Mike Tyson punch with your helmet. You can
- 1:04:39Speaker 7: do that. There's no need for what he did. And
- 1:04:42Speaker 7: you know, I think the one game suspension, I think
- 1:04:45Speaker 7: he got off easy with that.
- 1:04:47Speaker 2: Great points.
- 1:04:48Speaker 1: Okay, Well, obviously nobody knows better about this sort of
- 1:04:51Speaker 1: thing than you, especially when it comes to the physical part.
- 1:04:53Speaker 1: But let's talk about it in general. What I said before,
- 1:04:56Speaker 1: Allions got beat Barren Square by the Chiefs and their
- 1:04:59Speaker 1: out opportunities. They did cash in on national TV. But
- 1:05:04Speaker 1: and now, of course you have the side show. What else,
- 1:05:06Speaker 1: what do you want to add to this?
- 1:05:08Speaker 6: Well, first of all, Ken's city is just They're just
- 1:05:10Speaker 6: a beast. They've been dominant for the last few years
- 1:05:13Speaker 6: since Mahome's been there, and so you're gonna have to
- 1:05:16Speaker 6: come in guns blazing. But the truth is, like I
- 1:05:20Speaker 6: really love Detroit, but but I love him for a
- 1:05:22Speaker 6: different reason than you guys. I love how it was
- 1:05:25Speaker 6: a golf He got traded up there, he got banished
- 1:05:28Speaker 6: up there. They would send him up there to you know,
- 1:05:32Speaker 6: put him on a time out and just let his
- 1:05:34Speaker 6: career die and then he messed around and came back
- 1:05:37Speaker 6: and he beat the rams man like I was waiting.
- 1:05:40Speaker 3: On that game.
- 1:05:40Speaker 6: You know, that's the kind of stuff I like in sports.
- 1:05:43Speaker 6: But the truth is, like there's no place for this
- 1:05:46Speaker 6: in that sport to harm somebody, especially after the game.
- 1:05:51Speaker 6: Like I mean, that's when you call the police. That's
- 1:05:53Speaker 6: a that's an assault, that's when you know. But but
- 1:05:55Speaker 6: what I would really say instead of us hopping on
- 1:05:58Speaker 6: this guy's back right now, I'm saying, these are the
- 1:06:01Speaker 6: signs that like every every NFL player or anybody I
- 1:06:05Speaker 6: know who committed suicide, all that loved ones said the
- 1:06:07Speaker 6: same thing.
- 1:06:08Speaker 3: They started to not act out of character.
- 1:06:11Speaker 6: So if he did that, my question is who's checking
- 1:06:14Speaker 6: on this guy, Not the guy who got hurt, but
- 1:06:16Speaker 6: the guy who attacked him, because he's the one his
- 1:06:18Speaker 6: mind is probably not. He ain't he ain't something going
- 1:06:22Speaker 6: on up there. They need to check him right now.
- 1:06:24Speaker 6: I know you can't really get a CTE diagnosis until death,
- 1:06:27Speaker 6: but them symptoms of that, because I know I got
- 1:06:29Speaker 6: them all I live with him and then they just
- 1:06:32Speaker 6: destroyed my life for a long time. But one thing
- 1:06:35Speaker 6: that I got to say, something that Marble said earlier. Man,
- 1:06:39Speaker 6: I can't believe I did this. I actually turned off
- 1:06:42Speaker 6: the football game to watch Kaitlyn Clark play WNBA like
- 1:06:46Speaker 6: and to you said that, I didn't even connect them dots.
- 1:06:50Speaker 6: He's right, He's one hundred percent right. Like that girl
- 1:06:52Speaker 6: has changed the game. So let's go back to the
- 1:06:54Speaker 6: NBA in the NFL. But but yeah, I just said,
- 1:06:57Speaker 6: somebody just need to be checking on that guy, not
- 1:06:59Speaker 6: the one who got hurt, but the one who did
- 1:07:01Speaker 6: the assault, because he's probably not acting out of character.
- 1:07:03Speaker 6: He's probably acting out of character.
- 1:07:06Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, so everybody called everybody or a candy or
- 1:07:09Speaker 2: the last one, right.
- 1:07:11Speaker 4: Okay, so there is no place in football for that
- 1:07:15Speaker 4: to happen after the game. With that being said, though,
- 1:07:20Speaker 4: and I understand, well, yeah, maybe we need to check
- 1:07:23Speaker 4: on him and see, But I also wonder what did
- 1:07:27Speaker 4: Kansas City do during the game to provoke some of that,
- 1:07:31Speaker 4: knowing that they didn't get called for anything either. Now
- 1:07:34Speaker 4: I'm not justifying what he did. What he did was wrong,
- 1:07:39Speaker 4: but there's always two sides to every story in every
- 1:07:44Speaker 4: fight like that, some something they did not that doesn't
- 1:07:50Speaker 4: justify what he did, but they must have done something
- 1:07:53Speaker 4: as well, and I'd be interested to see and hear
- 1:07:59Speaker 4: more about that, because there's been some rumblings and stuff
- 1:08:02Speaker 4: like that and saying, you know that they did certain
- 1:08:05Speaker 4: things during the game and they just didn't get called.
- 1:08:08Speaker 4: That doesn't justify what he did, but it might explain
- 1:08:13Speaker 4: more to us why he did. But never should never
- 1:08:19Speaker 4: should he have taken it to that level. And like
- 1:08:22Speaker 4: Marvin said, I agree. I don't know that one game
- 1:08:24Speaker 4: was just enough, you know, Is that enough for him
- 1:08:29Speaker 4: to learn and that what he did was wrong.
- 1:08:34Speaker 6: I got a quick one for you on that one.
- 1:08:37Speaker 6: Let's say we all have an enemy. We got an enemy,
- 1:08:39Speaker 6: all different enemies, right, and you know one day you're
- 1:08:43Speaker 6: gonna lay hands on his enemy. Are you gonna do
- 1:08:45Speaker 6: it with a million people watching? Why are you gonna
- 1:08:48Speaker 6: do it.
- 1:08:48Speaker 3: Where you're not gonna get in trouble?
- 1:08:50Speaker 6: So for some reason for him not to think about that,
- 1:08:54Speaker 6: he's already his brain. I'm telling you that something's not
- 1:08:57Speaker 6: right and we're gonna be reading about this guy a
- 1:08:59Speaker 6: little bit later on in this career. And I hate
- 1:09:00Speaker 6: to say that, and I don't. I hope that he
- 1:09:02Speaker 6: finds help, because that's what it is. I'll guarantee it.
- 1:09:05Speaker 6: I don't even know who it is that I didn't
- 1:09:07Speaker 6: see it, but I'm going to follow it now. I'm
- 1:09:08Speaker 6: gonna make that my personal business and researcher.
- 1:09:11Speaker 2: Well that's good. Now, let me find out a couple
- 1:09:12Speaker 2: of other things.
- 1:09:13Speaker 1: Maybe one of the reasons why he only got that
- 1:09:15Speaker 1: one game's ascension is he had a chance to tell
- 1:09:17Speaker 1: his side of the story. Maybe the NFL found it
- 1:09:20Speaker 1: somewhat believable that maybe he was provoked in some way.
- 1:09:22Speaker 1: I don't know, but nevertheless, I'll only close it up
- 1:09:25Speaker 1: this topic out on one thing. A year ago, I
- 1:09:27Speaker 1: got on Mike Tarico's kate because he thought the Lions
- 1:09:31Speaker 1: escaped and got lucky that they won because Travis Kelsey
- 1:09:33Speaker 1: was there. Well, guess what wasn't there.
- 1:09:35Speaker 2: Guess what?
- 1:09:36Speaker 1: Travis was there, and the Chiefs had the model to
- 1:09:38Speaker 1: end up beating the Lions. Of course, Kandy and I
- 1:09:41Speaker 1: went out there to the Super Bowl and had opportunity
- 1:09:43Speaker 1: to see the Chiefs against the Eagles. We didn't go
- 1:09:45Speaker 1: to the game, but we talked to a lot of
- 1:09:46Speaker 1: people and make Rico look a little bit better for
- 1:09:50Speaker 1: NBC as well. Great points everybody here across the board.
- 1:09:53Speaker 1: Georgia obviously will be expecting you to talk about it
- 1:09:56Speaker 1: obviously on Fire Up next week, which is probably where
- 1:09:59Speaker 1: you're headed for that one week at least next week.
- 1:10:01Speaker 1: And of course I'll allow you to talk about it
- 1:10:04Speaker 1: on the Baseball Show as well, because I want a
- 1:10:05Speaker 1: different audience here as well. That would be the one
- 1:10:08Speaker 1: time I give you the opportunity to talk about both
- 1:10:10Speaker 1: to justify your presidence being there as long as you
- 1:10:12Speaker 1: let the Lions know that you're certainly helping them out
- 1:10:15Speaker 1: around the nation. Great stuff all the way around. So
- 1:10:18Speaker 1: with that said, we're going to go back to the
- 1:10:19Speaker 1: hard wood and the legend. Let's talk about Saint john basketball.
- 1:10:25Speaker 1: I know Marvin loves to talk about New York hoops that,
- 1:10:28Speaker 1: but Saint John's basketball under Rick Patino ended up winning
- 1:10:34Speaker 1: his first pick.
- 1:10:36Speaker 2: He's titled in forty years? Can they do it again?
- 1:10:38Speaker 2: This year? Marvin? Rick Patino and Marvin you know we're having.
- 1:10:49Speaker 3: Problem with sorry about that.
- 1:10:51Speaker 7: Yeah, So what I'll say is, based on Rick Patino's
- 1:10:55Speaker 7: resume regarding can he do it again? I saw all
- 1:10:58Speaker 7: he's ever did is win. All he all he does
- 1:11:01Speaker 7: is win everywhere he goes.
- 1:11:02Speaker 3: He wins.
- 1:11:02Speaker 7: He's an elite coach, He's a Hall of Fame coach.
- 1:11:05Speaker 7: He went to Saint John's. The place has been dormant
- 1:11:07Speaker 7: since Luke Carniseca, and you know, he had success. So
- 1:11:11Speaker 7: without knowing a lot of what he has on his
- 1:11:13Speaker 7: team and assuming that they have the nil money and
- 1:11:16Speaker 7: he's you know, using his name to re crude and
- 1:11:18Speaker 7: I'm certain he has a roster, can they have success
- 1:11:21Speaker 7: next year?
- 1:11:22Speaker 3: Absolutely?
- 1:11:24Speaker 2: Okay, fair enough, Well, what was the question?
- 1:11:29Speaker 3: I miss?
- 1:11:29Speaker 2: That's what we'll talk about Rick Patino every program on
- 1:11:34Speaker 2: the planet.
- 1:11:36Speaker 6: You know what, it's hard to argue with success. You know,
- 1:11:39Speaker 6: he's Yeah, I can't say anything about him other than,
- 1:11:42Speaker 6: you know, they got head to have that money now
- 1:11:44Speaker 6: and when they start recruiting, a lot of the you
- 1:11:46Speaker 6: know this coaches first come in, they they they're stuck
- 1:11:48Speaker 6: with what they have until they you know, you can
- 1:11:51Speaker 6: kind of clean it up a little bit. But I
- 1:11:52Speaker 6: expect him to start winning again.
- 1:11:55Speaker 2: Yeah, no problem, George, go ahead.
- 1:11:57Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean I admire Rick Patino. He's had a
- 1:12:00Speaker 5: great career.
- 1:12:00Speaker 8: I mean, I know there's been some you know, rivals
- 1:12:04Speaker 8: of his that don't like his style or this or that.
- 1:12:06Speaker 5: Big deal.
- 1:12:07Speaker 3: He's a winner.
- 1:12:08Speaker 8: He has succeeded in almost everywhere he's gone, and more
- 1:12:13Speaker 8: power to him. I mean, Saint John's been a great
- 1:12:16Speaker 8: program for many, many years, decades. You know, then they felt,
- 1:12:20Speaker 8: you know, they fell a little bit, as all teams
- 1:12:22Speaker 8: sometimes do. But Patino is a is a man. He's
- 1:12:26Speaker 8: kind of like he's kind of like a grandfather figure.
- 1:12:29Speaker 8: But he doesn't look old, you know what I mean.
- 1:12:31Speaker 8: He still looks like he's you know, fresh and a's soul,
- 1:12:35Speaker 8: full of energy, and he's so enthusiastic. He loves the players.
- 1:12:38Speaker 8: He gets to know his players real. While I really
- 1:12:41Speaker 8: like him as a head coach, I think he'll do well.
- 1:12:43Speaker 4: Scotty, how do I argue with what's already been said?
- 1:12:50Speaker 4: I mean, he he has been proven. He's two NCAA
- 1:12:56Speaker 4: Division tournaments, seven NCAA Division Regional Final fours, American East
- 1:13:03Speaker 4: Tournament Championship, two American East Regular Season championships, five SEC
- 1:13:10Speaker 4: Tournament championships, too SEC regular season I mean two Conference
- 1:13:15Speaker 4: USA Like everywhere he's gone, he's taken into the championship.
- 1:13:20Speaker 4: So I don't see why. Now. The one thing I
- 1:13:25Speaker 4: will say with nil, you have to re recruit your
- 1:13:29Speaker 4: same players and as well get new players. So sometimes
- 1:13:34Speaker 4: some of these coaches that have been around a long time, yes,
- 1:13:39Speaker 4: there they could be good recruits, but they might not
- 1:13:42Speaker 4: be as good of recruiting and re recruiting. The one
- 1:13:49Speaker 4: other thing I will say in basketball especially is that
- 1:13:53Speaker 4: you only play five on the on the floor. So
- 1:13:57Speaker 4: if you I'm gonna, I'm gonna say that, I think
- 1:14:01Speaker 4: your next man up is probably what you would have
- 1:14:05Speaker 4: thought is probably playing for a different team because they
- 1:14:08Speaker 4: wanted to be up on the on the playing all
- 1:14:11Speaker 4: the time. So I think those it's not necessarily the
- 1:14:15Speaker 4: first five that you have as important as the next
- 1:14:19Speaker 4: five to come up to help. And so it'll be
- 1:14:22Speaker 4: interesting to see how Rick does with that.
- 1:14:25Speaker 1: All right, Well, let me put a bull on Riven
- 1:14:28Speaker 1: or a bull on this one. Because the legend of
- 1:14:30Speaker 1: Rick Patino, who actually became the first coach to win
- 1:14:33Speaker 1: conference titles with five Division one teams Boston University, Kentucky, Louisville, Iona,
- 1:14:39Speaker 1: and Saint John. Nobody has to comment on that. I'm
- 1:14:41Speaker 1: just putting out there as a fact everything you guys
- 1:14:43Speaker 1: have said regoes, he wins, and as far as I'm concerned,
- 1:14:46Speaker 1: when you're able to go out there and win. I repeat, people,
- 1:14:50Speaker 1: the first coach of win conference titles with five division teams,
- 1:14:53Speaker 1: Boston University, Kentucky, Louisville, I Saint John's. That's funny. Nobody
- 1:14:58Speaker 1: needs to comment on this one. But we're gonna do
- 1:15:00Speaker 1: something normally don't do. Talk about horse racing. Okay, And
- 1:15:03Speaker 1: why would I go horse racing? I'm telling you, I
- 1:15:05Speaker 1: got no tice. Ron Hey, listen, I'm talking about everything
- 1:15:09Speaker 1: on you. Ronter Cott, jockey wrote Secretariat recently passed away,
- 1:15:13Speaker 1: so it's unfortunate. Rest and peace ron Forcott. Well, and
- 1:15:17Speaker 1: he talks about ronter Cott or horse racing in general.
- 1:15:22Speaker 3: No, I don't really have a lot, you know.
- 1:15:23Speaker 6: I've went to some of those derbies they have him
- 1:15:26Speaker 6: Santa Anna once of that one once before. Okay, Yeah,
- 1:15:29Speaker 6: I don't really have a lot. My experience with horses
- 1:15:32Speaker 6: is the ec line stuff like therapy.
- 1:15:34Speaker 1: All right, don't worry about it. All right, we'll bow
- 1:15:36Speaker 1: pass this one. But I wanted to put that out there.
- 1:15:38Speaker 1: Ronter Cott, rest in peace, George.
- 1:15:41Speaker 8: Yeah, what a great guy. I mean, he's a Hall
- 1:15:44Speaker 8: of Fame jockey.
- 1:15:45Speaker 3: Scott.
- 1:15:45Speaker 8: You know he took Secretariat to that Triple Crown back
- 1:15:48Speaker 8: in nineteen seventy three, and you know he he just
- 1:15:52Speaker 8: had a wonderful winning streak.
- 1:15:54Speaker 5: Man, that horse was unbelievable.
- 1:15:56Speaker 8: Nobody was going to beat Secretariat that year, winning the
- 1:16:00Speaker 8: Ucky Derby, the Preakness, and then the Belmont Steakes. I
- 1:16:04Speaker 8: used to love watching the those three races, and I
- 1:16:06Speaker 8: still do, not as much as I used to. But
- 1:16:09Speaker 8: I you know, the sport of horse racing is dipped.
- 1:16:12Speaker 8: But this guy was definitely a Hall of Fame jockey,
- 1:16:16Speaker 8: no question about it. You know, he's born in Canada.
- 1:16:18Speaker 8: A lot of people forgot about that, but he's He's
- 1:16:21Speaker 8: won for the ages and God rest him, God rest
- 1:16:24Speaker 8: in peace.
- 1:16:25Speaker 4: He was inducted into the National Museum of Racing and
- 1:16:30Speaker 4: Hall of Fame back in nineteen seventy nine, like he
- 1:16:35Speaker 4: was voted in the New Brunswick Sports Hall of Fame,
- 1:16:38Speaker 4: and in nineteen eighty he was inducted into the Canada
- 1:16:41Speaker 4: Sports Hall of Fame. In eighty four, he became the
- 1:16:45Speaker 4: first recipient of the Vino Gomez Memorial Award. Like he's
- 1:16:50Speaker 4: just done so much. Yes. In twenty fifteen, a statute
- 1:16:55Speaker 4: of Secretariat and Chercott crossing the finish line at the
- 1:16:58Speaker 4: Belmont Stakes was unveiled and two Cutt's hometown of Grandfa
- 1:17:04Speaker 4: Falls and New Brunswick. That tells you right there what
- 1:17:09Speaker 4: a career that he had, because how many people are
- 1:17:11Speaker 4: going to have a statute of themselves up in their hometown.
- 1:17:16Speaker 4: So rest in peace, But what a career.
- 1:17:20Speaker 1: Yeah, it's Tucky Derry Beaumont Stakes great, the stakes so great,
- 1:17:23Speaker 1: all right, Marvin.
- 1:17:24Speaker 7: The fact that we're talking about a horse fifty years
- 1:17:27Speaker 7: later tell you how especially tells you how great this
- 1:17:30Speaker 7: horse is. You know what I'm saying. It's just one
- 1:17:32Speaker 7: of those things where even if you don't follow horse
- 1:17:34Speaker 7: person like myself, you know Secretariat, like you, you know
- 1:17:37Speaker 7: the I don't you know, if you don't love rock
- 1:17:39Speaker 7: and roll, you still know the Rolling Stones, you know
- 1:17:41Speaker 7: what I'm saying. So his legacy has lasted. The jockey
- 1:17:45Speaker 7: obviously is attached to that, rightfully so. And you know,
- 1:17:51Speaker 7: this is a sports icon, a horse in the jockey
- 1:17:54Speaker 7: that has at this point stood the test of time.
- 1:17:57Speaker 7: And they make movies out of this horse. They made
- 1:17:59Speaker 7: a movie off the horse. So again, for a guy
- 1:18:02Speaker 7: who doesn't follow it, I know enough to know that
- 1:18:04Speaker 7: secretary to special as is the jockey rest in peace,
- 1:18:07Speaker 7: No question about.
- 1:18:08Speaker 1: We're going to go to another spore we don't cover much,
- 1:18:11Speaker 1: and that's diving. US Olympic legend Greg lu gainis is
- 1:18:15Speaker 1: going to sell his home and medals in a shocking
- 1:18:17Speaker 1: move to begin life over seas.
- 1:18:19Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:18:20Speaker 1: Uh, the greatest diver male of all time, one of
- 1:18:23Speaker 1: America's most that great Olympians, is letting go much of
- 1:18:26Speaker 1: his past. So with that said, well, what your talks
- 1:18:28Speaker 1: about Greg lu gainis going overseas? Hey, I'll tell you
- 1:18:31Speaker 1: after traveling overseas and doing what I did, I'm hooked
- 1:18:34Speaker 1: on international travel. But more power to Greg. You know
- 1:18:38Speaker 1: when I saw him die back in the days, he
- 1:18:40Speaker 1: was unbelievable.
- 1:18:41Speaker 6: Yeah, well, I'll tell you what like Well, you know,
- 1:18:44Speaker 6: as a team USA, I think we spent a lot
- 1:18:46Speaker 6: of time in Europe. So remind me to tell you
- 1:18:48Speaker 6: my horse racing story later.
- 1:18:50Speaker 1: You know, we have time for well how you may
- 1:18:52Speaker 1: talk about that probably on one of your shows and
- 1:18:56Speaker 1: we'll the later date, but not tonight.
- 1:18:58Speaker 2: Go ahead, No, no, no.
- 1:18:59Speaker 6: Not not to Yeah yeah, but no, no, what Gret
- 1:19:02Speaker 6: know a lot of athletes are doing that, not just athletes.
- 1:19:04Speaker 6: But a lot of people are realizing how much easier
- 1:19:08Speaker 6: life is outside of America, right, Like you know, the
- 1:19:12Speaker 6: you can sell you're a meddle and then now you
- 1:19:14Speaker 6: can live over there, and and you know, people what
- 1:19:18Speaker 6: we pay for rent here. People are getting compounds with
- 1:19:21Speaker 6: the with the chauffeur and the driver or a driver
- 1:19:23Speaker 6: and a chef and security. And so I mean, I'm
- 1:19:29Speaker 6: not mad at him. I understand why he's doing it.
- 1:19:31Speaker 6: And like I said, it's a it's a trend. Now,
- 1:19:34Speaker 6: it's a trend.
- 1:19:35Speaker 2: Yeah, all right.
- 1:19:36Speaker 8: George, Yeah, one of the greatest divers of all time,
- 1:19:40Speaker 8: obviously in the world, but of course in the United States.
- 1:19:44Speaker 5: Greg lagain is well, you know, everybody's got her own
- 1:19:49Speaker 5: rights to where.
- 1:19:49Speaker 8: They want to live, and and uh, you know, citizenship wise,
- 1:19:53Speaker 8: I'm sorry to see him go. I'm uh not a
- 1:19:56Speaker 8: big fan of moving to another nation, but everybody he
- 1:20:00Speaker 8: has their own free will. And Greg has certainly done
- 1:20:03Speaker 8: a great job here in America. He has been at
- 1:20:08Speaker 8: the forefront of teaching young young divers too. I'm sure
- 1:20:13Speaker 8: he's worked with a lot of youngsters as well over
- 1:20:15Speaker 8: the years. And he'll continue his career in another nation
- 1:20:20Speaker 8: like you said, that's again his prerogative. He has a
- 1:20:23Speaker 8: right to do that, but we're never going to forget
- 1:20:25Speaker 8: all his accomplishments, of course as a United States Olympia maybe.
- 1:20:33Speaker 2: So.
- 1:20:34Speaker 4: One of the things he did is he sold all
- 1:20:36Speaker 4: of his Olympic medals in order to move out of
- 1:20:38Speaker 4: the US Olympic medals. While they are a prize possession
- 1:20:45Speaker 4: for some, they also are something that is tangible. And
- 1:20:50Speaker 4: are they going to Is he going to pass him
- 1:20:52Speaker 4: on to somebody else? Does he want to keep them,
- 1:20:55Speaker 4: does he want to look at them? Obviously no, he
- 1:20:58Speaker 4: wanted to sell him. He wants to start a new
- 1:21:00Speaker 4: chapter overseas. He's not the only one. And sometimes it's
- 1:21:05Speaker 4: not just about a life easier. Yes, it can be cheaper,
- 1:21:09Speaker 4: but sometimes it becomes political too, and they don't It
- 1:21:13Speaker 4: can be polarizing here and I'm not gonna get into politics.
- 1:21:18Speaker 4: But if a person doesn't agree with the politics or
- 1:21:23Speaker 4: the way that United States is going, their option might
- 1:21:28Speaker 4: be to move outside the US. And if he's been
- 1:21:30Speaker 4: over there because he's been in competitions, he's been in
- 1:21:33Speaker 4: places that maybe he liked more or he wanted to
- 1:21:36Speaker 4: see more of, and that could be why he's going
- 1:21:40Speaker 4: there as well.
- 1:21:42Speaker 2: Okay, Margaret.
- 1:21:43Speaker 7: He was an elite level athlete, so he did a
- 1:21:45Speaker 7: lot of traveling around the world for years. But the
- 1:21:49Speaker 7: reality is that the Internet has made the world so small.
- 1:21:52Speaker 7: It is so normal to create relationship with people halfway
- 1:21:56Speaker 7: around the world. It is so normal to create a
- 1:21:59Speaker 7: path where you can go list some where, you know, overseas,
- 1:22:02Speaker 7: and you're right in this political climate, in the economy,
- 1:22:06Speaker 7: with his already existing exposure to the you know, other countries.
- 1:22:11Speaker 7: For him, it was just, you know, a personal decision
- 1:22:14Speaker 7: and simple as that. It's no different from moving to
- 1:22:16Speaker 7: Jersey for him.
- 1:22:17Speaker 1: You know, Yeah, more power to them. All right, let's
- 1:22:19Speaker 1: go to our neck non tour top of the night.
- 1:22:22Speaker 1: Everybody's waiting for them. This is a pretty cool one.
- 1:22:24Speaker 1: Now get this seven eleven baby. This is unbelievable. The
- 1:22:30Speaker 1: name Jamie Amy Brown was born in Saint Louis, Missouri.
- 1:22:34Speaker 1: But that seven eleven baby will get seven eleven dollars
- 1:22:39Speaker 1: for college because she was born at seven eleven and
- 1:22:45Speaker 1: weighing seven pounds eleven ounces. A baby girl named, as
- 1:22:49Speaker 1: I said, Jay Amy Brown. How do you like that?
- 1:22:52Speaker 1: Seventy one hundred eleven dollars just to go ahead and
- 1:22:56Speaker 1: have a little bit of money up front for college, Marvin,
- 1:22:58Speaker 1: Is that surreal.
- 1:22:59Speaker 7: Or what I'm looking at from seven elevens perspective, very
- 1:23:03Speaker 7: cheap way to get some get some real marketing going.
- 1:23:06Speaker 7: Uh you know, getting people's hearts. You know, corporate Americas
- 1:23:10Speaker 7: taking a beating, and you know, so if they can
- 1:23:12Speaker 7: find opportunities to reach the common man, show some money out,
- 1:23:16Speaker 7: sell a nice story, get some people in them stores. Hey,
- 1:23:20Speaker 7: you know that that's good business.
- 1:23:21Speaker 3: I get it.
- 1:23:22Speaker 2: Yeah, they got me to do it. So there, there
- 1:23:24Speaker 2: you go, seven elevens.
- 1:23:25Speaker 1: Now you better give me a big gold for free,
- 1:23:29Speaker 1: among the other things. I actually like the big golds.
- 1:23:31Speaker 1: I like those slushes, all right, go ahead?
- 1:23:33Speaker 6: Well well, actually, uh St. Louis my hometown just so
- 1:23:37Speaker 6: you know, and so I spent a lot of time
- 1:23:39Speaker 6: over there.
- 1:23:39Speaker 3: Sat.
- 1:23:40Speaker 6: Saint Louis is a highly highly, highly segregated city. You know, Yeah,
- 1:23:45Speaker 6: this is very segregated, and so what what this could be?
- 1:23:48Speaker 6: To be very honest, there's a lot of racial tension,
- 1:23:50Speaker 6: especially at the seventy levels and the stores because a
- 1:23:52Speaker 6: lot of those seven levels are owned by people from
- 1:23:56Speaker 6: like the Mid East and things like that, and so
- 1:23:57Speaker 6: there's there's a tension there is, so this might just
- 1:24:00Speaker 6: be a way to kind of kind of calm some
- 1:24:02Speaker 6: of that stuff down a little bit. Like I've never
- 1:24:04Speaker 6: heard this story, and like I'm on Facebook, most of
- 1:24:07Speaker 6: people on my page are from from that area. So
- 1:24:11Speaker 6: it's gonna be interesting to find out exactly was that
- 1:24:14Speaker 6: in the city of Saint Louis. Was it in the
- 1:24:15Speaker 6: suburbs or was it way out in the country somewhere,
- 1:24:18Speaker 6: But I got to feel it was in the city
- 1:24:20Speaker 6: where that racial tension is still up there.
- 1:24:22Speaker 1: Well whatever seven eleven, I mean seven one, one one, well,
- 1:24:26Speaker 1: whatever poor digit's worth for college and the band start
- 1:24:29Speaker 1: all right, go ahead, Georgia.
- 1:24:30Speaker 8: Absolutely, Yeah, it is a great marketing idea by seven
- 1:24:34Speaker 8: and eleven. That's really very unique and uh and you.
- 1:24:37Speaker 5: Know it's something that most people wouldn't expect.
- 1:24:41Speaker 8: I mean, yeah, people that want to play the lottery,
- 1:24:43Speaker 8: they bet certain numbers.
- 1:24:45Speaker 3: We all know that.
- 1:24:46Speaker 8: But the fact that seven eleven still step up and says, hey,
- 1:24:49Speaker 8: if this, if this happens to a baby being born,
- 1:24:53Speaker 8: and this little girl was born with those kind of
- 1:24:55Speaker 8: characteristics with using that accombination, like you said of seven
- 1:24:59Speaker 8: and eleven. Hey, all the more power to it. Hats
- 1:25:02Speaker 8: off to the to the franchise for doing so all right, Katy.
- 1:25:08Speaker 4: Rachel Langford's phone has been ringing NonStop since seven eleven,
- 1:25:11Speaker 4: when she gave birth to a girl at seven eleven PM,
- 1:25:14Speaker 4: weighing seven pounds and eleven ounces. But the most exciting
- 1:25:17Speaker 4: call came from seven eleven, which celebrated the news of
- 1:25:21Speaker 4: Jamie Brown's berth by pledging seven eleven dollars to her
- 1:25:26Speaker 4: college fund. The convenience store chain previously had called to
- 1:25:30Speaker 4: offer a gift basket with diapers and other merchandise. Langford
- 1:25:34Speaker 4: said the additional pledge was totally unexpected. She was completely
- 1:25:39Speaker 4: shocked and just kind of freaked out. A representative for
- 1:25:44Speaker 4: seven to eleven confirmed to CNN that the company has
- 1:25:48Speaker 4: pledged the money for Jamie's college fund, as well as onesies,
- 1:25:51Speaker 4: diapers and other gifts.
- 1:25:53Speaker 2: Wow.
- 1:25:54Speaker 4: It kind of also reminds me of you know, all
- 1:25:59Speaker 4: these rests that give on your birthday a free whatever
- 1:26:04Speaker 4: it is. It's a good marketing tool, it's a good
- 1:26:06Speaker 4: way to get people in. I'm sure this family now
- 1:26:11Speaker 4: seven eleven if they have a choice. Let's face it,
- 1:26:13Speaker 4: you're driving down the road. There's three or four different
- 1:26:16Speaker 4: gas stations. This family is gonna stop at seven eleven's
- 1:26:19Speaker 4: now you know they're gonna and it's a feel good story.
- 1:26:23Speaker 4: So kudos to seven eleven for doing that.
- 1:26:27Speaker 1: Let me tell you something, Marvin, this is a good
- 1:26:30Speaker 1: field good story. When I brought you in here was
- 1:26:32Speaker 1: initially you survived that one man. This one's a little
- 1:26:36Speaker 1: easier adult, but I got plenty more coming here. All right,
- 1:26:38Speaker 1: let's go on to Molly karm Get all right, everybody
- 1:26:42Speaker 1: talking about Marley Karam and First Take. She actually recently
- 1:26:47Speaker 1: she is leaving ESPN by the end of the year
- 1:26:49Speaker 1: join the network. Back in two thousand and six, Molly
- 1:26:53Speaker 1: was upset that the network went ahead and Low Boulder
- 1:26:56Speaker 1: with a five hundred thousand dollars figure and because she
- 1:27:01Speaker 1: felt what she brought to the network on First Take,
- 1:27:04Speaker 1: and she recently did work with Yukon and Danny Hurley.
- 1:27:07Speaker 1: I'll tell you one thing. I like Molly Carara. I
- 1:27:10Speaker 1: think I even mentioned her in my book Lessons from
- 1:27:12Speaker 1: the Microphone. This lady'll be able to I look forward
- 1:27:15Speaker 1: to seeing her on other platforms. She has the utmost
- 1:27:18Speaker 1: respectful What she did to that show. She elevated it.
- 1:27:22Speaker 1: And I'll talk about steven A. Smith in a moment.
- 1:27:25Speaker 1: Let's folks keep the focus on Molly Marvin. This woman
- 1:27:28Speaker 1: is a true pro in every sense of the word.
- 1:27:30Speaker 1: Not bad looking either, but forget about the appearance. But
- 1:27:33Speaker 1: her professionalism is top notch. And again, five hundred K
- 1:27:36Speaker 1: for what she did to that network to calm down
- 1:27:38Speaker 1: steven A.
- 1:27:39Speaker 2: Smith. She's really getting under paid for that. But go ahead, Marvin.
- 1:27:44Speaker 7: I mean ultimately that the advertisers weren't demanding that they
- 1:27:48Speaker 7: have her back. The advertisers weren't making her mandatory as
- 1:27:51Speaker 7: part of the deal. I like Molly. She did a
- 1:27:54Speaker 7: good job. I do agree in regress on how she looks.
- 1:27:57Speaker 7: That's the thing, man. You know, they hire, you know,
- 1:28:01Speaker 7: attractive women, and you know that's sex sales. That's the
- 1:28:05Speaker 7: bigger story there is, that sex sales. Fortunately, I think
- 1:28:08Speaker 7: that a lot of these networks have hired out standing
- 1:28:11Speaker 7: women who you know, some of them are attractive, but
- 1:28:14Speaker 7: they seem pretty knowledgeable.
- 1:28:15Speaker 3: So that's been good.
- 1:28:16Speaker 7: But in regards to Molly, listen, you're worth whatever your
- 1:28:19Speaker 7: employee says you're worth. You're worth whatever they're wanting to
- 1:28:22Speaker 7: pay you. That's really how I look at that. So
- 1:28:25Speaker 7: you know, if they felt that you were as good
- 1:28:27Speaker 7: as you think you as you think you are, they
- 1:28:29Speaker 7: would have paid you that. But they saw different value,
- 1:28:31Speaker 7: They saw different opportunities. You know, when we look at
- 1:28:34Speaker 7: their their budget, they didn't feel like allocating you know,
- 1:28:38Speaker 7: so much to you. It is what it is, you know.
- 1:28:40Speaker 7: Thank God for a free market. Go somewhere else, make
- 1:28:43Speaker 7: you some more money and get your value up.
- 1:28:46Speaker 2: Su sure will obsously.
- 1:28:47Speaker 1: Like I said, she did a little work with Dan
- 1:28:49Speaker 1: Hurley with you con men basketball, what are your thoughts
- 1:28:51Speaker 1: can do about Molly Carom?
- 1:28:53Speaker 4: You know she was promoted to permit host on First
- 1:28:56Speaker 4: Take Back on September fifteenth, twenty fifteen. Yes, she declined
- 1:29:02Speaker 4: the contract extension with ESPN and will be leaving the
- 1:29:06Speaker 4: network at the end of twenty twenty five Later, she
- 1:29:10Speaker 4: confirmed on Instagram, saying the news came out earlier than
- 1:29:13Speaker 4: I attended and not in the way I hoped. She
- 1:29:17Speaker 4: decided to close this incredible chapter and step away from
- 1:29:20Speaker 4: First take It was one of the great honors of
- 1:29:23Speaker 4: her career. The next day, stephen A. Smith opened up
- 1:29:29Speaker 4: the September sixteenth show with a tribute to her and
- 1:29:32Speaker 4: said that she abruptly then decided to call it quits.
- 1:29:38Speaker 4: You know, Martin, you hit the nail on the head.
- 1:29:41Speaker 4: There's a lot of female broadcasters in the media that
- 1:29:45Speaker 4: are very knowledgeable. A lot of them are very sexy. Yes,
- 1:29:50Speaker 4: sex sales, especially when you're trying to attract the casual fan.
- 1:29:55Speaker 4: Let's put it that way, because you already have the
- 1:29:58Speaker 4: sports fan, the diehards. What you're trying to do is
- 1:30:01Speaker 4: you're trying to get the casual fans in there to
- 1:30:03Speaker 4: watch your programming. And there's a lot of different programming
- 1:30:07Speaker 4: out there. You know, you have your Fox, you have ESPN,
- 1:30:10Speaker 4: now you have all kinds of streaming. You know that
- 1:30:13Speaker 4: you have Apple, and you have all these different places. So, yeah,
- 1:30:18Speaker 4: your your worth is what you can get from your employer.
- 1:30:23Speaker 4: And if you think you can get more, more power
- 1:30:26Speaker 4: to you. If you want to leave and try and
- 1:30:28Speaker 4: get it from someplace else, that's definitely your prerogative.
- 1:30:32Speaker 6: Okay, very good, Candy, All right, Well, well I don't
- 1:30:36Speaker 6: think it's over yet personally. I know they announced that
- 1:30:38Speaker 6: she was leaving, but the same thing happened with Van
- 1:30:41Speaker 6: and White on. Was it the will of fortune? No,
- 1:30:44Speaker 6: no will fortune.
- 1:30:47Speaker 2: Fortune.
- 1:30:47Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, same thing.
- 1:30:49Speaker 6: They found out she hadn't had a raise in twenty
- 1:30:50Speaker 6: years and Pat Sajak was making like twenty eight million
- 1:30:55Speaker 6: and she was making like two hundred thousand. Then we
- 1:30:58Speaker 6: come to find out she was actually like a La
- 1:31:02Speaker 6: Land kind of sewurce, like she bought up all these
- 1:31:05Speaker 6: houses and buildings. So she actually did very well on
- 1:31:07Speaker 6: her own. But the people spoke up the fans and
- 1:31:10Speaker 6: they say, you know, if you go turn it on
- 1:31:11Speaker 6: right now, she's back because they upped her price. They
- 1:31:15Speaker 6: was gonna let her walk. But sometimes the fans will speak,
- 1:31:17Speaker 6: so maybe the sports fans will say something and she
- 1:31:21Speaker 6: might wind up coming back with a better contract. It's
- 1:31:24Speaker 6: not over yet.
- 1:31:25Speaker 1: Interesting perspective, George, You doesn't work, George, try again.
- 1:31:40Speaker 2: I didn't take.
- 1:31:42Speaker 4: Lip reading to get it out.
- 1:31:45Speaker 5: You mute it real quick.
- 1:31:50Speaker 8: Molly's a great personality, she's a great sports broadcaster. She
- 1:31:54Speaker 8: didn't want to be in the looking at as a
- 1:31:57Speaker 8: as a demotion or I'm at the end of the
- 1:31:59Speaker 8: line here with the SPN. There will talk about she
- 1:32:02Speaker 8: was going to just be on Sports Center or something
- 1:32:04Speaker 8: like that, and and and it sounds like she didn't
- 1:32:07Speaker 8: want that.
- 1:32:08Speaker 5: I do agree with you, will.
- 1:32:10Speaker 8: I mean, we may not have heard the end of
- 1:32:12Speaker 8: this because she is a very dynamic personality there and
- 1:32:16Speaker 8: and I don't like to see her being treated any
- 1:32:18Speaker 8: any any any diminished any of her skills that she's
- 1:32:21Speaker 8: got and the great work she's done so far all
- 1:32:25Speaker 8: these years for ESPN.
- 1:32:27Speaker 1: Yeah, I have two more topics. We'll get ready to
- 1:32:30Speaker 1: wrap it up. It's being pretty easy. It's a great segue,
- 1:32:32Speaker 1: and then we'll do it. Take a little history down
- 1:32:35Speaker 1: memory land with ESPN.
- 1:32:36Speaker 2: Stephen A.
- 1:32:37Speaker 1: Smith did add two new shows with Content Empire. Who
- 1:32:40Speaker 1: knows what he's gonna add. I'm not going to talk
- 1:32:41Speaker 1: about what his political intentions are. We'll leave that for
- 1:32:44Speaker 1: a later date. But the value that he's brought to
- 1:32:46Speaker 1: that network, Marvin has been unbelievable and he's added two
- 1:32:49Speaker 1: more shows a Content Empire.
- 1:32:51Speaker 2: What are your thought about Steve and.
- 1:32:52Speaker 7: I stephen A is you know, he is the face
- 1:32:55Speaker 7: of American sports. He's the guy. You know, he's he's
- 1:32:59Speaker 7: the new mic and you know, and kudos to him.
- 1:33:02Speaker 7: He may he's come up from the bottom as a
- 1:33:04Speaker 7: sportswriter at his school. It went to Salem state and
- 1:33:08Speaker 7: now you know it's being reported that he's looking at,
- 1:33:10Speaker 7: you know, one hundred million dots of contracts. I don't
- 1:33:12Speaker 7: know how true that is, but you know, he's he's
- 1:33:15Speaker 7: absolutely at the top of his industry. He's the guy,
- 1:33:18Speaker 7: and you know, I've been watching him for many years.
- 1:33:21Speaker 4: Candy stephen A is a personality. He's a big personality,
- 1:33:29Speaker 4: and people either you love him or you hate him.
- 1:33:33Speaker 4: And most of the time it's because of his boisterous
- 1:33:37Speaker 4: character at times that you don't like him. But he
- 1:33:41Speaker 4: is very knowledgeable. He is he researches things very well.
- 1:33:47Speaker 4: He's very well spoken. Yes, he can get loud at times,
- 1:33:51Speaker 4: and whether you like that or not, but he is
- 1:33:54Speaker 4: the face of ESPN though, and that's what ESPN wanted,
- 1:33:58Speaker 4: that's what they they're writing with his popularity, and you know,
- 1:34:01Speaker 4: he's bringing people in. So you know, like I said,
- 1:34:07Speaker 4: he's a very knowledgeable media PERSONA.
- 1:34:10Speaker 1: I'll say one thing. I'll see an A Smith been
- 1:34:13Speaker 1: them a couple of times. Recently at Super Bowl, I
- 1:34:18Speaker 1: took a photo of a strong possibility and ends up
- 1:34:20Speaker 1: in that second book. I love his research and his personality.
- 1:34:23Speaker 1: Obviously in Panada, MotorCity madmouth around him that was built
- 1:34:27Speaker 1: many years ago. But I enjoy his dynamic, flamboyant personality.
- 1:34:32Speaker 1: I get it, but I will be surprised as when
- 1:34:36Speaker 1: I write Lessons on Microphone part two. If you see
- 1:34:38Speaker 1: a Stephen A. Smith picture in there with up he
- 1:34:40Speaker 1: was gracious enough as Candy took the photo to come
- 1:34:42Speaker 1: over step aside to take it with me.
- 1:34:44Speaker 2: And is there something you want to add? Candy?
- 1:34:46Speaker 4: Did you I do one last thing? He is not
- 1:34:50Speaker 4: ruled out actually running for president.
- 1:34:52Speaker 2: And Candy that's for another day. Candy, thank you, Okay,
- 1:34:57Speaker 2: all right, go ahead.
- 1:34:58Speaker 6: Well, even a smith Man, you know what, I like him.
- 1:35:02Speaker 6: You know, sometimes he says things that just burned me
- 1:35:05Speaker 6: up though, So that was a time where I kind
- 1:35:07Speaker 6: of didn't want to watch his show, to be very honest,
- 1:35:10Speaker 6: you know, especially that way he dealt with some of
- 1:35:12Speaker 6: the Kaepernick stuff, some of the things he was saying.
- 1:35:15Speaker 6: But don't always agree with him, but I usually wind
- 1:35:17Speaker 6: up coming back. But what I learned to do is
- 1:35:19Speaker 6: I put that because and I deal with that. I'm
- 1:35:21Speaker 6: no waise sensitive, too many concussions on me, so I
- 1:35:24Speaker 6: just put the TV on real low so he can't
- 1:35:26Speaker 6: scream at me, but I still watch him. I still
- 1:35:28Speaker 6: watch him, so I.
- 1:35:30Speaker 2: Love to debate the guy.
- 1:35:32Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, he turned me up. Man, I don't have
- 1:35:35Speaker 3: enough brain sales left.
- 1:35:36Speaker 2: He loved to debate the guy. But you know, I'm not.
- 1:35:39Speaker 2: Maybe one of these days will do it privately.
- 1:35:41Speaker 1: But everything in my experiences whatever been positive, George, and
- 1:35:45Speaker 1: we're gonna go back to go one way, one last
- 1:35:47Speaker 1: topic to wrap it up.
- 1:35:48Speaker 8: Well, you know, yeah, Steven A has obviously done a
- 1:35:50Speaker 8: great job. And whether you like him or you don't,
- 1:35:53Speaker 8: it's interesting, you know that he's become the face of ESPN,
- 1:35:56Speaker 8: like you guys mentioned, I mean, we had guys like
- 1:36:00Speaker 8: you know, Mike Tarico is now the face of NBC,
- 1:36:03Speaker 8: Jim Nance of CBS. So what I'm saying is that
- 1:36:06Speaker 8: Steven Smith, even though he's very opinionated, he does turn
- 1:36:09Speaker 8: a lot of viewers off, but he attracts many more.
- 1:36:12Speaker 8: And I applaud him for his professional journalism capabilities and
- 1:36:18Speaker 8: his display of knowledge is just unparalleled. So it doesn't
- 1:36:23Speaker 8: surprise me. He deserves it and I'm looking forward to
- 1:36:26Speaker 8: seeing him for many years to come over at eSPI.
- 1:36:29Speaker 1: All right, well, now we are under our final topic
- 1:36:31Speaker 1: of the night. Obviously, my bedtime's around eleven o'clock. Don't
- 1:36:34Speaker 1: worry about that, everybody, And that's what Candy goes ahead
- 1:36:37Speaker 1: and takes care of the rest of the detectives and stuff.
- 1:36:39Speaker 1: But let's go back to ESPN's early anchors Chris Berman,
- 1:36:43Speaker 1: Bobb Lee, Tom Means, Jim Simpson, Greg Gumbel, Sharon Smith,
- 1:36:47Speaker 1: Lee Leonard, and George Grant. First of all, I'll give
- 1:36:49Speaker 1: you my takes on it real quick. Chris Berman should
- 1:36:52Speaker 1: still be active full time. Don't know why, but he's
- 1:36:55Speaker 1: definitely the face of that network. I had a chance
- 1:36:57Speaker 1: to meet Bob Ley over at the National Sports Media
- 1:36:59Speaker 1: Associate and we spent some time together and we talked
- 1:37:02Speaker 1: for a long time photos there. I wish I could
- 1:37:05Speaker 1: have met Tom MEAs arguably one of the best hockey
- 1:37:08Speaker 1: broadcasters of all time. We all know that Jim Smith
- 1:37:10Speaker 1: was on the original people over there, a multi virtual guy.
- 1:37:14Speaker 1: Everybody knows what Greg gumbles after he started, he was
- 1:37:17Speaker 1: original there. Sharan Smith, I don't know a lot about her,
- 1:37:20Speaker 1: much about Lee Leonard, and George Grant went on to
- 1:37:23Speaker 1: have a really good baseball career with the Cincinnati Red.
- 1:37:26Speaker 1: So Marvin, how many of these do you recognize or remember.
- 1:37:30Speaker 1: But that's a pretty good group. But once upon a
- 1:37:32Speaker 1: time with the ESPN turning into the empire that they have,
- 1:37:35Speaker 1: this is what they began with when they weren't as
- 1:37:37Speaker 1: big as they were.
- 1:37:38Speaker 7: Yeah, I recognize a lot of those names. I think
- 1:37:41Speaker 7: the guy that stands out the most is obviously Chris Berman.
- 1:37:45Speaker 7: I've been watching BURM since I was a kid. I
- 1:37:46Speaker 7: remember being in you know, middle school, high school watching
- 1:37:49Speaker 7: Berman Sunday nights on ESPN just break down the day's games,
- 1:37:55Speaker 7: and it was with the fastest three minutes he was doing.
- 1:37:58Speaker 7: He was great, great knowledge of game. Just you know,
- 1:38:02Speaker 7: he's he spoke to you in a way that this
- 1:38:04Speaker 7: made you feel like you knew the guy, very grounded
- 1:38:08Speaker 7: and you know, Berman to me is synonymous with ESPN
- 1:38:13Speaker 7: and Pro football.
- 1:38:15Speaker 2: Katie.
- 1:38:18Speaker 4: You know, there's a lot of names there that you
- 1:38:20Speaker 4: think of sports. One of the ones I go back
- 1:38:25Speaker 4: to is Bob Lee and Outside the Lines. That was
- 1:38:28Speaker 4: a great show. Greg Gumbel was one of the ones
- 1:38:31Speaker 4: that started back with ESPN and had a strong presence
- 1:38:35Speaker 4: back in that first decade. But yeah, Dick Bytel, he
- 1:38:40Speaker 4: started with them. Chris Berman, of course, you know we
- 1:38:43Speaker 4: all sit there and think of NFL and and how
- 1:38:47Speaker 4: he helped sports put Sports Center on the map and
- 1:38:51Speaker 4: jump jump started the growth of the whole ESPN brand.
- 1:38:58Speaker 6: Well, I was actually trying to look the name up because, right,
- 1:39:03Speaker 6: said Brian Gumble, right right, Yeah, yeah, most of the
- 1:39:09Speaker 6: names I don't remember, but Berman, I remember that name.
- 1:39:14Speaker 6: But I'll be on I'm a little bit compromised, so
- 1:39:16Speaker 6: my memory is a.
- 1:39:17Speaker 2: Little Sorry, don't worry about a compromise.
- 1:39:19Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, but I remember watching all those shows. I
- 1:39:22Speaker 6: mean as an athlete, especially if they're living at the
- 1:39:25Speaker 6: Olympic Training Center. We you know ESPNS, it stays on
- 1:39:28Speaker 6: loop all the time, you always watching it.
- 1:39:29Speaker 1: So yeah, I remember the first time I watched ESPN
- 1:39:32Speaker 1: was back in nineteen seventy nine. I was at a
- 1:39:35Speaker 1: friend's dorm over in East Lands, and you know, it's
- 1:39:38Speaker 1: unbelievable just watching it when it launch. George, you have
- 1:39:41Speaker 1: the final word on this topic. And then we as
- 1:39:43Speaker 1: we wrap up the show, we're going to do a
- 1:39:45Speaker 1: recap with well person so they could get his info
- 1:39:47Speaker 1: out there, and we'll call it a go ahead.
- 1:39:49Speaker 2: George.
- 1:39:50Speaker 8: Yeah, Chris Berman, backpack, back back, you know, and Chris
- 1:39:54Speaker 8: bermanisms as they called them. He's number one in my bug.
- 1:39:57Speaker 8: Bob Lay also a great broadcaster, Jim's Lison, who by
- 1:40:01Speaker 8: the way, came over from his career at NBC where
- 1:40:04Speaker 8: he was always the second man at NBC.
- 1:40:08Speaker 5: They were always great. There's so many good ones.
- 1:40:10Speaker 8: But yeah, I think that Berman and obviously Bobbla are
- 1:40:14Speaker 8: two the ones that I always admired most.
- 1:40:16Speaker 1: Yeah, bob Le that means unbelievable. I love Bobby. He
- 1:40:19Speaker 1: defines that journalism is all about. He used to do
- 1:40:22Speaker 1: a little bit with soccer. That was one of his
- 1:40:24Speaker 1: favorite sports. But Bobby, to me is the one I'm
- 1:40:26Speaker 1: glad I had a chance to meet. I've seen Berman
- 1:40:28Speaker 1: a few times, we've cordially exchange, you know, handshase. But
- 1:40:32Speaker 1: I didn't know Chris that well Bobby, and I wish
- 1:40:35Speaker 1: I would have saw not a chance to meet Tom.
- 1:40:37Speaker 2: Meees, who unfortunately died too early. Because I try to
- 1:40:39Speaker 2: answered it.
- 1:40:40Speaker 1: But that said, that does wrap up this edition of
- 1:40:42Speaker 1: Sports of Change content wise. So what we're gonna do
