And coming to you line from Denny's basement apartment where he forces me to eat
0:53
corn while he watches and sports allegedly. Welcome, Welcome, welcome everyone,
0:59
Thank you, Thank you for joining us for this episode on the twenty is
1:03
it the twenty eighth day already of May twenty twenty four. Thanks again for
1:08
listening or listening later if you're not listening live. We are late tonight because
1:14
there was Memorial Day shenanigans and sports to finish watching, and Kenny had meetings,
1:23
so we we could just dive right into basketball. Let's do that.
1:29
NBA you know you watch. I originally had picked the Timberwolves to go to
1:37
the Eastern or I'm sorry, the championship game against the the Boston Celtics.
1:42
Celtics there they swept the Pacers. Even though the Pacers led I think three
1:48
out of four games at the end, somehow lost all of them. And
1:53
I mean it was one of those deals that Boston was the better team.
1:56
Pacers have some talent, did end up with better shooting percentages at the end,
2:00
Yeah, they did, at least fourth quarter shooting percentages. Well,
2:05
they killed them in the fourth quarter. That was the thing about it.
2:08
Excuse me. And then the one game was just a butt kicking, so
2:13
uh that was Game two. Pacers lose to the Celtics. Good run for
2:21
the Pacers sixth seed making the Eastern Conference Championship. Celtics done what they should
2:24
have done. And that's when they're the best team all year, especially record
2:30
wise. And so now they're in the division cough everybody, So they are
2:36
you okay over there? They were the best team for the past two years
2:38
and they've getten knocked out. Yeah, And but you think about it,
2:43
we talked about it. I think last week of the week before you've got
2:46
the contracts are gonna be up for all those guys. But you got you
2:50
had the heat no uh uh no, Jimmy. And then who was the
2:57
second round team that they had that was it the Bucks? Was it Janice?
3:02
Was that the same? Yes? Check down and see if that's no,
3:07
won't show. Is it is it Boston that that played? Is it
3:12
Boston that played them? I'm almost yeah, they played they played when soon
3:15
they mean Milwaukee? Milwaukee? So moving on to the West, it's the
3:19
fact that Minnesota is in the West and they should be in the East.
3:25
It's it's all that weird, you know how they got all this stuff split
3:29
up. Well, that so the take a look at the Western Conference Finals.
3:35
I thought the Thunder would take care of the MAVs. MAVs have kind
3:38
of played like well, they were one of the best players. That was
3:39
Donkey, Donkey getting special needs. That was the they had. You know,
3:47
they had the number. I mean, I thought that donkak and and
3:51
Kyrie played some of the best basketball I've seen them play all year, and
3:54
and every shot was hitting. But the big fellas hurt the Thunder. Then
3:59
you take it into the series was three to zero tonight, and you thought
4:02
that the Timber would have the advantage over Dallas in the center because of Gobart
4:09
and because of Karl Anthony Towns and to be honest, the they have played
4:14
the Bigs four. Dallas has played well. Alex Dallas's perimeter shooting has been
4:20
has been very well in this series. It's nuts, really, I mean
4:26
we saw tonight, we saw donkk make a three out of nowhere was he
4:30
double teamed? Oh it's it's not double team. That's somehow kind of mystery
4:35
foul out of it that you know, we still couldn't figure out where the
4:39
foul came from because nobody touched him, not tonight, but he did make
4:43
that mystery, three of which got the game within two points, I think
4:47
is what it was so tonight and the loss, you know, forty phil
4:51
gold range for Dallas and fifty two percent for the timber was. They shot
4:56
better. It was one of their better shooting games out of the whole series.
4:59
They seemed to fill as well and shot eleven of twenty four and threes
5:02
that was forty five. You saw Towns had a really good fourth quarter with
5:05
all. I think he made three threes in the fourth quarter, at least
5:10
three that I remember, and two in a row and then made one later.
5:13
But you look at Dallas fourteen to forty on their three point they wasn't
5:15
as shooting as great as they had been. Only thirty five percent the Caves
5:20
and Calves. Oh no Donovan Mitchell Bucks play, Yeah it was Pacer,
5:27
Yes, sorry about that. There was no Donovan Mitchell for for the Calves.
5:30
And that's that was another way that Boston. But everything else was about
5:35
the same, except the Timberwolves did earn the points of the paint advantage tonight.
5:43
Now you turn around, you look at game three for Dallas UH and
5:47
the Timberwolves. Dallas shot fifty five percent phil goals, fifty percent for threes,
5:54
and they had a good obviously a good free throw shooting were Minnesota fifty
5:59
percent good for the field goal percentage, but nine to thirty for threes and
6:03
UH twelve to seventeen for free throws. Points in the paint Timberwolves still had,
6:10
but fouls were hired and had more. The perimeter for Dallas has been
6:15
has been crazy has I think even during the Okama City matchup it was crazy
6:23
too. I think they were shooting perimeter and I know that they had a
6:28
advantage on the inside because Okama City Thunder don't have any big guys. But
6:32
well, rebounding still, the rebounding we talked about killed that series stands down.
6:38
Well, they were getting perimmeitive rebounds too. Yeah, of course they
6:41
weren't just getting the they were just getting under the basket rebound. They were
6:44
getting perimeter rebounds. Several times somebody was shooting the bable cake out it would
6:47
end up in Dallas. So Dallas U takes the loss. Tonight, Timberwolves
6:51
catch Game four, they avoid the sweep, head back to Minnesota for Game
6:58
five and gonna try to h then go one one and one again. Did
7:03
they say that, Uh, Minnesota played down to the Nuggets and the Nuggets
7:06
have a three game advantage on them. No, Minnesota took the two game
7:13
advantage at a Denver remember, and then they let Denver get back in it
7:17
and then won it towards the end. So because I think at one time
7:21
it was three to two, uh Denver, if I'm not mistaken, because
7:27
they swapped games Dallas, I mean Timberwolves won the first two at home because
7:32
Nuggets had the home court advantage, and then Nuggets turn around and beat Minnesota.
7:38
I just remember, I just remember watching that last Mavericks thunder game with
7:41
you, and you were just you were just a pissy little one. You
7:46
were just as little when you just yeah, yeah, okay, your hope
7:53
came up and then back down and then came back up and then back down.
7:57
It's it's an emotional roller coaster for you, and it is not for
8:00
me. I mean, it's basketball. It's bad. It's tough to watch.
8:03
That's why basketball stresses me the hell out. Watching hockey stresses me out.
8:07
Football you kind of get a vibe, you know, you're down by
8:09
thirty and then you're like, okay, I'm down by thirty. So so
8:11
what you feel in the best was what I feel in hockey, going come
8:13
on, okay, you're doing an empty nutter and I keep the puck down
8:18
here. That's you know, Edmonton. That's how they lost that game last
8:20
night. They have a man advantage and they couldn't keep it. If you
8:24
find it in the Dallas end of the ring. One of the things I've
8:26
always thought of, you could find a sport that you enjoy watching without having
8:31
to care about a certain team. Hockey's that for me. I mean,
8:35
I root for the Avalanche obviously Dallas just because it's local. But I was
8:41
a big Avalanche. You are, But I mean, but I can watch
8:43
it and it doesn't bother me that my team lost in hockey like it does
8:48
in the other sports. So when you're watching that, I'm just gonna say,
8:52
as a Chicago fan, I've gotten to the point where it doesn't bother
8:54
me that my team has lost no matter what. Well, because they haven't
8:58
won since what then, I ain't No. Okay, which did we talk
9:01
about? Oh no, no, the black Hawks nineties in each team the
9:07
nineties, no no, No, the black Hawks won in the in the
9:09
twenty tens. Is it that we had the two two three? Yeah,
9:13
and the White Sox won twenty two. Oh, they did win that random
9:18
World Series that everyone forgets about. Yeah, I don't forget about it because
9:22
it was a sweep. We lost one game that entire series, and that
9:24
was to the Angels. That was a help. The Bears had went to
9:28
the Super Bowl in the in the U two thousands, was it was it
9:35
two thousands? It was lovey. Yeah, I can remember late two thousands
9:41
or if it was, well, that was a crazy I was in Montgomery
9:45
watching it. So that's what I'm saying. It might have been the early
9:46
twenty tens as well. Yeah, I would think. So just look at
9:52
the two Super Bowls loss right there. Super Bowl of course you won in
10:07
two thousand and six. So yeah, So like I said, I did,
10:11
it was late two thousands. It was in that that area. Uh,
10:16
and the Bulls, you know, the Bulls haven't been anything since Jordan
10:18
left. So no, that's that's what That's what I've got. They almost
10:24
had a you know, the Derreck Rowse was almost there. I thought he
10:28
was one of the best players to never really do. What I mean is
10:33
he did he did? He did? Yeah, he did. He did
10:35
better late in his career. Yeah, but who's playing with He was with
10:39
the Knicks the last time I knew he might be on Olymphis into the Raptors
10:48
or not Raptors, Grizzlies. Sorry, what is the Raptors? They're still
10:52
there? Which Toronto? Yeah, that been pretty quiet. Same since what's
11:01
the idea? I just remember I just missed the old expos What is the
11:05
guy's name that won the championship for them? That's at the Clippers. It
11:09
was, uh, Kyrie, Kyrie kaw Leonard. This is Drake was And
11:15
that was kind of one of the improbable runs too, you know it was
11:20
that was that was a perfect team got up to realize that you're gonna have
11:24
to pay all these guys or they're gonna go. And remember I remember Kawhi
11:31
he went did he go to the Spurs first? And did he go?
11:33
I think that's what it was, And then they might have been he might
11:39
have he might have left Popovich, but I know he's on the Spurs at
11:43
one point. But I know that you know, they needed a basketball.
11:46
They move around, dude, baseball's even more. Well, hockey is just
11:50
as bad. Well, baseball, you just got nine hundred people. You
11:52
know, you got so many teams and so many players, so many,
11:56
so many. All right, so game game five coming this week. A
12:01
couple of the schedule, is it going to be Is it going to be
12:03
a Thursday game or a Friday game? They're actually probably going to hurry this
12:07
up pretty quick. Game. We're going back to Minnesota and uh, if
12:15
needed, they are going to finish up in Dallas. No, they'll finish
12:18
out yeah, Minnesota. That's going to be one one one, Okay,
12:22
all right. It's so hard to keep up the playoff because everybody changes their
12:26
formast so uh, you know, Boston's already in congratulations Boston. Now they're
12:33
just resting. Now they are just how do we defend uh, the whiniest
12:39
player in the league if he wins, but but but it's still how do
12:43
we defend the whineyest player in the league. Poor zingis back for Boston.
12:46
That's going to be interesting. And then I also think that I think that
12:54
the Derek it's not lively because I'm thinking about the Mavericks. What is the
13:01
other guy that's well no, I was going to pick up the injury.
13:05
No, well he didn't play obviously Monday night. The other three point leads
13:11
are three game leads, so it wouldn't matter. Drew Holiday. I think
13:16
he was just sick, so that was nothing. Drew Holiday, Yeah,
13:22
he was sick, all right, Moving on, Another guy was moving moving
13:28
That just Bill Walton people. Sorry. Bill. He was a lot of
13:33
fun. He was the only reason that I would stay up and watch Pac
13:37
twelve basketball if he was calling a game and I can find it and the
13:41
game was at least one of the teams I knew, and it wasn't an
13:46
ass kicking they He was always fun. Uh No, I turned it off.
13:52
That's not it. He was always fun. So it's he'll be missed
14:00
for sure. He's just an old hippie. But he was super sharp and
14:03
he just didn't really hilarious. He just talked. He just talked, and
14:07
that was life. But you know, all the stories coming out about him,
14:09
how kind and he you know, remembered people and was you know,
14:13
he was He was a great all right. And didn't know he was sick.
14:18
I missed that. Oh yeah, he had talked about it. I
14:22
didn't know that it was that bad a year ago, I think, is
14:26
what it was. I don't remember. Yeah, no, he had,
14:30
he had said it it was, but it was kept low key. It
14:31
wasn't like weekly daily updates for it. He just said, oh, yeah,
14:37
I've got it. Let's keep going with life, all right, let's
14:41
move on to bet a good one tonight. Oh he had a great one
14:46
to night overtime win by the Panthers. Series tied up. What was that?
14:50
Who shut that in? That was? Uh? And it wasn't to
14:54
Chuck. But we were sitting there watching it. How did we? I
15:01
a lot of the names. I just look at the time final three to
15:03
two, scored fairly early into the second. I'm sorry the first overtime.
15:11
On the other side, Oilers Stars Oilers this last week on Thursday, took
15:16
game one, Stars turned around and tied it up three to two, and
15:20
then Stars last night won five to three. So they are leading two to
15:28
one. Yeah, and then they'll play tomorrow night game four at Edmonton.
15:33
And I don't know where your son's getting off on this. At Edmonton's fast.
15:39
Edmonton's not as fast as Dallas. Dallas is a faster team. I
15:43
think he was particularly talking about certain players, I mean, and then but
15:48
the rest of the team. Know. I think Dallas looks like the most
15:50
one of the most improved teams I've seen from last year because they have some
15:54
speed on them. And Dallas had a good record last year, no doubt,
15:58
but they just look like a different team this year. So that's down
16:03
of the final four as well. Yeah, they've got one more, one
16:07
more and Dallas takes it from Edmonton and then no more Canadian team one.
16:14
Sorry, I'm looking at this series two to one. Yeah, one more
16:15
for Florida in there there. And Florida was a surprise team. Like we
16:18
talked about last year. They took out Boston I think was at the first
16:23
round. They took out Boston last year to get in. Didn't they know
16:29
it was first round? They took me out. They were the first round
16:32
because they came in as technically the eight seed, yes, last year,
16:36
but because of the way they do don't understand it the way they do the
16:42
the the setups for the playoffs. Yeah, Boston, Boston had to face
16:49
the number eight seed technically the number eight seed, and then they took him
16:52
out. Bob Rosky has had a hell of a career the last two years.
16:57
It was Sam Ryan that hit that power play goal in overtime Florida b
17:06
Boston then took out the Maple Leafs as well, but Boston took too Hurricanes
17:14
and then lost to Vegas in the championship. I forgot about Vegas winning last
17:17
year four to one. It was. It was a butt kicking, it
17:19
really was. It was like, you know, why were the Panthers even
17:23
there at that point? Well, you had. They fought so hot to
17:26
get five to two, seven to two. Now they won the game three,
17:30
three to two. They lost game four, three to two, and
17:33
then they lost the game five, nine to three, seven to two in
17:37
Chicago. Go ahead and call it bottom of the night, ran delay over,
17:41
Just go ahead and called the game. Might as well. Cleveland Indians
17:45
winners who nine out of ten, ten out of eleven, thank you,
17:51
No, they don't exist. That's the Guardians, thirteen to seven winners,
17:53
night over Colorado should have won the Cleveland Guardians. If anybody wants to know,
17:57
it's always it's only about Boston. Baltimore was a surprise. That is
18:02
a that's a good win, Baltimore. Let's pull up the standings real fast.
18:06
Talk a little bit about baseball in hockey Land. We've got a lot
18:11
of college Well we picked what did we pick? I think our picks are
18:15
if I could read your pics. Okay, I took Panthers, You took
18:21
Rangers. Apparently somebody's got oilers walks for seven? That was that was?
18:30
That was the Canucks. That was okay, that's seven. It's supposed to
18:40
be number sevens game seven? Okay. And then our basketball I've got the
18:45
Stars. Well, no, that's down here? Where are we at?
18:51
Didn't write you run it over here? Oh No, that was just the
18:55
standings, wasn't it. No, that's what we were going to take him
18:56
out with. That's what we picked our games. No, it is that
19:02
we picked our games for that. We had the Panther. I had the
19:03
pants Panthers. You had the Rangers four to one, and then you took
19:08
Mavericks. I think we wouldn't be the Mavericks with it. The Mavericks and
19:17
six, the Mavericks and five. Yeah, and then we both took Dallas
19:22
and five. Oh my god, I forgot about that. Yeah, that
19:29
was our special time. Yeah, so we still we we could still get
19:32
that Dallas five games for hockey and we could still get the Dallas basketball two
19:38
for five. Oh my god, we are terrible people. That's not Mavericks.
19:45
That's Minnesota, Mother Minnesota. I didn't pick the Mavericks. I don't
19:52
know. That's Dallas. What do you what do you want to see?
19:53
What do you I just want to look at the standings, you know what?
19:56
Are we about a third of the way? Where it? Fifty halfway
20:00
is fifty five games? Is June July fourth, So fifty five fifty five
20:04
to fifty five, we're we're hey, we are about a third of away.
20:08
Done one hundred and sixty two games. So yeah, we're about a
20:11
third of the way. I have a differential. Yankees are pretty good,
20:18
Baltimore looks pretty good. Indians look pretty good. Here's your surprise. The
20:22
Phillies, Uh, Phillies a building. Didn't they go to the Series last
20:27
year? Two years? No? It was I think they've had an early
20:30
flame out last year two years. I swore that Harper got in there.
20:36
Finally, I totally forgot who even went to the even who even went to
20:45
the World Series last week? Last year, Well, the Diamondbacks and the
20:49
Phillies. So that's that that's the NL teams. M hm, So that
20:55
would have been, Oh, did Arizona actually win? That? Did Arizona?
20:59
Who won the Who went to the Arizona? What was that round one?
21:07
No, couldn't have been round one? Oh no, Philly speak the
21:10
Braves. That was the big upset. That was the upset. Knock the
21:15
Braves out because that was their their repeat year. Backs had a good team
21:21
too, and I think their last place now who won that Rangers last year's
21:30
champions yea Rangers. And there are three games under five hundred. Uh you
21:36
don't looking this year you're potentially gonna have some playoff teams be under five hundred.
21:41
Yeah, yeah, there's there's no doubt. Well, look at the
21:44
differential in the AL West. Everybody's in the negatives mm hmm. And that's
21:48
that's very rare to see, whereas you look at the AL East and it's
21:52
only Tampa and the Blue Jays that are in the negatives orls hanging time.
22:00
And we don't want to talk about Chicago being the greatest worst team in baseball
22:03
right now, white socks. I mean, look at the AL Central or
22:08
the NL Central. I mean, they're all negative except for the Brewers,
22:12
And wow, how have the Brewers not just yeah, how have they not
22:21
just take the cabs? Are only three and a half back Cardinals who are
22:22
are atrocious. They're pitching stacks bad. I mean it's four and a half
22:26
games at Pirates, which are supposed to be good. Again they started off
22:30
good, and they because they brought up that kid who's banging uh and you
22:37
know he's banging Jason Sedekas's ex lady. No Olivia Wilde. No, yeah,
22:42
isn't that it. It's Paul Skins. He's he's dating Olivi Dunn,
22:48
the LSU gymnast. You're way off on age, ladies. Man, I
22:52
just didn't care. I just kept seeing this to White pop up, and
22:56
I was like, I don't care who his stats up though, I know
22:57
we had a pretty good outing game one, and then I think his out
23:00
in Game two was good and he left the game with a lead and they
23:04
lost. So I don't think that he's got a win yet. Let's see,
23:08
he gotta go to their roster. Skiings, how did you think he
23:14
came up? But he was a huge story, huge story. Good.
23:17
He sees number one pick, he's out of l s U and uh,
23:23
I guess this is all pictures. Paul sks. He is currently one one
23:33
win. Oh did he get a win? Okay, he does have a
23:36
win three games, three games. He's only projected for nine games when he's
23:41
got three games this year. So no go back after the stats though,
23:42
Sean, he's, uh, well, this is this is the stats here.
23:47
He's only played three games. I know what I was. Yeah,
23:48
so one on and run and then against the Cubs he had three on runs.
23:53
Now the result was a win, but he didn't didn't see it's not
23:56
showing a win for him because he didn't get lost either. But one of
24:00
those games, I think this would be his only winn of the I think.
24:03
I think against the Cubs he he laughed with a huge lead and and
24:08
there it was. So guy's good. The guy is good, I guess.
24:17
I mean he's got a better U than anybody on the White Sox.
24:19
Soe, I mean three games twenty one horrible mustache to we're gonna talk about
24:26
the mustache have been popping up in baseball. Did you do how how much
24:33
of how much how much n cua A baseball did you watch? Oh?
24:37
Not just our local guys. I watched a little bit of the time.
24:41
I watched the Big twelve tournament. There's a lot of guys out there that
24:44
look like the drive vans and and trans ams and you know where wear the
24:52
half shirt. They've yeah, they've got their mustaches going right now. And
24:56
it is it is a phenomenal it is, it is, it is phenomenal
25:00
to watch. I don't know, uh, I don't know how to describe
25:04
it. That's a good segue. Let's talk about Division one. We're gonna
25:08
move in. It's on the bottom of the regional. Regional play has begun
25:15
for our young fellers in the n c a A. All three state teams
25:22
got in. Oh you baseball number nine seed. I thought that was a
25:26
little high for them. I thought they could potentially get a seven or eight
25:30
seed. They did get Duke, which Duke's going to be a tough out
25:33
thirty nine and eighteen. They were actually in the running for to be a
25:37
regional host. Also got O r U And is it the other one?
25:44
Is it Niagara? No? It was there's Niagara issues. It was Yukon.
25:51
Yeah, yeah, Niagara, Florida. Nebraska's in opt So I don't
25:56
think there's gonna be a problem with the Yukon Duke is going to be a
25:57
tough out though we have a they kind of projected us slow. I was
26:00
reading one website, it's like thirty eight percent, you know, advance out
26:07
of the regional. We were kind of on the low end on that.
26:10
There was a lot more that was but played or are you? Twice this
26:14
year run rolled in ten zero and then also lost a midweek away game to
26:18
them three to one, So or are you? Obviously we talked about,
26:23
or we talked earlier off air about or are you making it to the College
26:29
World Series? We forgot about that last year on that miraculous run. They
26:33
actually did not have a very good record at all overall for are you?
26:36
But they won the SEMIT League championship, so that's why they are in the
26:38
tournament. And then you have Yukon round and out as the fourth team they
26:44
will I was along without that, liberty, who is that? What's that?
26:52
What's that? As it is? Eli you because I was saying that.
26:57
I was saying earlier that you season gonna have one of the harder,
27:03
harder, harder regions to get out of because you and C's stuck in with
27:07
LSU, Wafford and Long Island. Long Island. So where is Liberty had
27:15
a good team this year? Did they not make it? God? Is
27:18
that college Texas A and M is a pretty tough bracket. Uh No,
27:22
I think A and M just walks through that, and I'll Texas gives them
27:26
a show. I think this is rage. We have seen this in the
27:30
women's softball. We've seen it in and we're going to see it now.
27:34
We're seeing the rivalry come back. We're seeing the Texas and Texas A and
27:40
M rivalry renew. Now that that women's softball. To finish that out,
27:44
Texas A and M should have had that. We'll talk about that later.
27:47
Softball Tech had Texas on the ropes the one seed, and it didn't get
27:51
it done. I'm not putting anything against the rageing Cajuns, but I'm saying
27:53
A and M can walk through that just fine. I think, Geordie SEC,
28:00
you got like eleven teams in. Yeah they're the most. Yeah,
28:03
they got the most in. And then I believe it was Big ten and
28:07
then Big twelve, and yeah Big twelve when we got six Kansas, Cincinnati
28:12
and TC TCU was surprised. But the rest of them didn't make it in.
28:17
Well, TCU got in on the fact that they didn't get in.
28:21
Oh you didn't get in, ks you got in? Who Kansas State didn't
28:26
they? Yeah, Kansas, Okay, that's what it was. Kansas State
28:30
got in because they fought really hard, got three the big they're the Arkansas
28:33
in the Big twelve, in the in the Big twelve tournament. I thought
28:37
that the O s U side was the hardest one in the Big twelve tournament
28:41
and the Big I wish you had the hardest one because there were games that
28:45
went to like one A M, two AM. They had they had over
28:51
from some of the other ones, and I think that killed Oklahoma when it
28:56
came down to it, because Oklahoma State was just in that anger grind.
29:00
They were like, we've done this how many knights in a row, Let's
29:03
just keep doing it. I believe that oh you would have had would have
29:07
won had those games not exceeded into you know what, ten eleven innings,
29:15
twelve innings, I forget how many. It was definitely interesting as far as
29:18
that goes. And it wasn't just Old in the State that did it.
29:21
I mean it was what UCM did it three four times. Well, I'm
29:26
just glad we don't have Dallas Baptists forty four and thirteen right there. Yeah,
29:30
Dallas Baptist nine and one against Top twenty five two in the Arizona the
29:34
Arizona Regional with Grand Canyon in West Virginia. So what oh no, I
29:40
was. I was looking at the records that you know, West Virginia did
29:42
have a pretty good baseball season. They always the Virginia got in Oh you
29:47
are, No, they were second or third and are they were right behind
29:51
went out early in the tournament. Yeah, but I think that you know,
29:52
it showed me a little bit with Oklahoma being a nine seed that they
29:56
didn't play a lot in the tournament. Oklahio State is gonna have tough time.
30:00
Yeah, Nebraska was That's what I was getting ready to look at.
30:02
I talked about too is I don't think Florida Niagara is going to be a
30:06
problem, but I think Nebraska, the Big ten champs, can't be overlooked.
30:11
And that's an old that's an old big eight eleven consecutive regionals under Holiday
30:18
since he's been there at o issue and this is their six that he's host
30:22
that they've hosted under him, so tournaments eleven straight regionals. This is a
30:29
sixth twelve. I think he's got ten big twelve. That's what regular?
30:37
Yeah? Regular? Yeah? Fine, Well where do we start? I
30:41
think that game starts. What is that Friday through June third? Yeah,
30:48
is what we're looking at. So Friday softball. Let's get to the juice.
30:56
So you don't want you want to talk about you getting into play Florida.
31:00
Stay here is Alabama the ou. Then we got jam. This over
31:04
here, Chuth, Carolina's gonna come out of that jam. He was gonna
31:08
probably be the one to give him in trouble right here. E c U,
31:15
Wake Forest v c U and Evansville kept him close. They did keep
31:19
him close, but used the better baseball team out of that whole thing.
31:26
Yes, I know, but like this is the cake right here. I'm
31:30
telling you, Kenny, this is cake. You see Irvine, be interested
31:36
to see what Oregon state? Excuse me? This over here is like the
31:41
special, this special corvallis so is undo you though? So a lot of
31:49
drama about Florida getting in. I noticed what was wrong with that? They
31:53
say that good sec love typical stuff, but didn't they didn't they have a
31:59
good series and they never get SEC series. I don't remember. I mean
32:02
baseball. I hadn't watched I watched there. We're gonna okay, we're gonna
32:07
go back. We're gonna start talking about RPI, the same thing they got,
32:09
Oh you do they talk about it. Yeah, And RPI is is
32:13
huge in this is huge in baseball too, And I believe Florida had a
32:20
really good RPI this year. It was the same thing that got oh you
32:24
kicked out of the men's basketball tournament. It's the same thing that I believe
32:30
got Florida in. Still it's yeah, twenty eight, twenty seven, nine,
32:37
and twelve. They're setting above Arizona. They're setting above Old Miss you
32:40
see. Uh yeah, Arizona. So right, So there's no way that
32:45
you can't put that team in. Who was the team that got host College
32:51
of Charleston? Was that damn no, that they're up there. I didn't
32:55
get to watch the reactions and sound. There was one team that their coach
32:59
got on and it was a pretty bad deal And I was like, well,
33:01
he's making a pretty good point about he should be in and other team
33:05
shouldn't be. Well, I understand Porter Mosier made the same statement Kansas.
33:08
I mean they were seventy two. That's probably why they left out. I
33:10
mean, you know, teams like that, Kansas had to win the tournament
33:16
or at least make it to the title game to get in Dallas. Baptist
33:22
seventheeenth. Yeah, Baptists, Like I said, they were nine and one
33:28
against fourteenth Oklahoma State. Should round be right around? They were so when
33:36
this when this, Initially we were above them, but since they beat us,
33:40
got you now, well they've got a two game record on us too.
33:43
You know, our season did not start out very strong, No,
33:49
not at all. But yeah, the RPI was was heavily used in this
33:52
interesting record though. You look at you eighteen and ten at home and fourteen
33:57
and five on the road. All right's move on to softball. All right,
34:00
we're going right into the ladies. Late nights up well, and this
34:07
night we can take our clothes off World World Sports allegedly after after World Series.
34:14
It's like skin Amax World Series was, what was you gonna say?
34:16
Up all up all nights. You're the blonde and I'm Gilburgh Godfrey and of
34:24
our why the hell am I watching? He did some of the funniest stand
34:30
up God. He was just dead pain and just nailed it every time his
34:35
voice. All right, College World Series, the final eight are set.
34:42
I couldn't understand this until I printed off the bracket if you look it,
34:45
because if you look at that, it's like who's playing where? Oh?
34:51
I got you? So Alabama? Well just let's break it down a little
34:54
bit. Texas Stanford. Now that's impressive. Now Stanford was on the ropes
35:00
against L s U and uh, that right there is going to take out
35:05
one of our enemies. It will. And that's exactly what I saw that
35:07
matchup. I thought, that's two teams I don't want to play again.
35:12
And so that's perfect problem is there's three teams up there that I that I
35:15
don't want to in Florida. I think both them are beatable. Even though
35:19
Florida is very talented. Still you don't want to. Was the SEC Player
35:24
of the Year. Joscelyn Henderson was that her she's O you girl from last
35:29
year. I think she was. I think she was a transfer of the
35:34
left OU and I think she's the big She was the I don't know if
35:37
she was Florida's best player, if she was the Big twelve. Sorry sec
35:43
uh see if it was Jocelyn Henderson, I think it's her name. She's
35:49
quite hell of a player too. Obviously former OU girl transferred. I think
35:53
that's right, but we're going to confirm that. Yeah. See if she
35:59
was uh yeah, sorry, and she we'd have to find pick her name
36:07
because she was on Florida. So if I go here, I should be
36:13
able to. Let's see dun dundun so Okloma State plays the four seed Florida,
36:22
which is one of the tougher draws. Are is one of the hardest.
36:25
Other sides Alabama UCLA. Alabama snuck in after beating Tennessee and and not
36:30
that they don't deserve it, not saying that at all, just saying that
36:35
they were an underdog, uh to get in. So they beat Tennessee and
36:38
two games to one, and now they're going to play ls or I'm sorry
36:42
u c l A, which is definitely not going to be a What would
36:49
be looking up for her? Was she pitching or was she I think she
36:52
was. I think she was. I think she was a sooner at one
36:58
time. I'm just trying to fun. Like I said, it's it's hard
37:01
to find college baseball. In college she did. She transferred to Oklahoma last
37:05
year and went to Florida. Yeah, yep, it's a damn shame.
37:09
Should have stayed all right, Well, I mean you got rounded out the
37:15
bottom. Here we go. You got rounded out the bottom. You've got
37:20
Duke in Oklahoma. Duke's kind of a surprise. I think they said this
37:24
is the one. Is this their first tournament appearance, World Series tournament appearance?
37:30
It could be very well, could be not knowing a lot to do
37:35
with Duke softball. Well, they beat Missouri, which I loved. Yeah,
37:42
they're just it's not one of the it's not one of the teams that
37:44
I follow. Yes, first World Series and program history. There you go.
37:47
So they're the ten seed one four to three fifty seven. Hell of
37:53
a record. Obviously played in the ACC which is not normally known for great
38:00
softball. But uh, there's some teams over there that that play decent.
38:07
What's that I'm trying. I'm trying to understand this now. And they have
38:09
met once. They played in the beginning of the year. Duke and O
38:13
you won three nothing. Okay, So I just shot me right down to
38:15
the bottom of this article because it was. It was trying to figure out
38:19
why Erickson left Oklahoma to play for for Florida. I don't know. I
38:22
think it was probably because she wasn't get in as much playing time. Blah
38:28
blah blah bout. Erickson won award after Wallace. I don't go away,
38:35
stupid pop ups? Is this my copy? You what you want? You
38:42
do? What you want to do. I'm gonna take Texas over Stanford.
38:46
I'm gonna take o is U over Florida. I'm gonna take o you and
38:52
I'm gonna take you cla. Okay, here's this why she was? She
38:55
bad it blah blah blah. I don't think it's gonna tell you. I
38:59
don't think is gonna tell you why she left. She ended the portal less
39:01
than three weeks after winning the national title. Uh. I knew I had
39:07
more to offer, so it was playtime. Well that's literally what I felt.
39:15
I had more to offer, felt they could be used. Oh I
39:16
forgot about Sophia. H I wonder what she did this year? She was
39:22
the other Well, Jordi ball and Jordi got hurt. Sophia went to Tennessee.
39:31
It was cute than girl. What your name is you're like my jersey,
39:38
you like my sweater. Well, it doesn't really give me her whole.
39:50
I don't know. That's what I try to do there. I mean
39:52
it's given her like every good thing she done and there. Yeah, ship,
39:57
we've lost a couple of good transfers. It. I really ate some
40:00
damn fine appearances. I forgot she went to Tennessee. Well, Tennessee is
40:05
always a good softball there. So you know, I don't see that as
40:08
now they're not in the World Series, but they weren't. No, but
40:15
I'm talking about yeah, and that was that was one of the bad things
40:19
was that they got hit with a rivalry. Oh he was a hell of
40:22
a game. I mean, you and and you know, when you're playing,
40:25
you know you want to keep those rivalries away from each other. But
40:30
instead they get hit with the rivalry as soon as as soon as they're making
40:35
it a super region. The first game is three to Tennessee, second game
40:37
is three two fourteen inning games from Super and then uh, and then you
40:43
had the one win and and like like I said, I didn't like,
40:47
oh you playing Florida State. I wanted that to be a later game.
40:51
I wanted Florida State to beat somebody else and get there. Yeah, they
40:53
just had They weren't as good this year. That's how that all worked out.
40:58
They were still pretty damn good. I mean we were we were.
41:00
We run ruled them in the first game, but that was fifth inning that
41:06
we ended up doing. It was later game one, your third inning.
41:13
Yeah it's eleven to three fifth but we ended up run ruling them. But
41:16
it wasn't like immediately wouldn't look Yeah, they switched their pictures up really early.
41:22
You know, we are also we're spoiled. So it is what it
41:27
is. Yeah, I mean we're in the World Series, and I don't
41:30
think we're the favorite. I don't know who the favorite is. It's tough.
41:34
It's pretty even that I would I would not I would not have a
41:37
I'd have to go look at the sports book Kenney sports something about u c
41:42
l A. Just I don't know why. It's just I've got a feeling.
41:45
I don't know why. The UCLA that was good, I know,
41:49
and there are six seeds. It's like they're super good or super up there.
41:52
You know, Well, you want to look at the seeds that got
41:53
in one, two, four, eight, six, ten, and fourteen.
42:00
Now it's pretty spread out. Could you reced that, Yeah, would
42:06
probably do Big twelve, one two three, right, which I mean even
42:10
Florida is seated a little higher. I think, hell out, I think
42:15
Alabama would be seated higher. What was there? What was their record?
42:21
What was the what was the Obama girls ladies? The world Tigers? Alabama
42:27
came in with a thirty three and seventeen record out of the SEC. Not
42:32
too shabby, not too shabby at all. What was sues? Where they
42:37
they are over here Unlessue forty and fifteen, Tennessee forty and ten, Texas
42:45
A and m uh forty and thirteen according so according to scru Georgia was Georgia
42:53
was thirty nine to sixteen. So according according to SEC rules, that was
42:58
horrible and a horrible season. Well, I mean, if you're not it's
43:02
Big twelve this year, but you know, you look at SEC next year
43:06
four it was forty six and fourhead of the four out of the eight teams.
43:08
Is SEC in the College World Series? Yeah? Yeah, Well I'm
43:14
not saying a thing against it. I'm just I'm just saying, you know,
43:16
there it could be one two, one two three teams could be there
43:25
if you didn't have Tennessee versus oh Alabama is split a little differently, yea,
43:30
but yeah, sure sure. So congratulations to the ladies Sooners, the
43:37
Cowgirls and the Longhornets all making it possibility we're to see heavy possibility. I
43:46
don't know. The favorite on this is seeing Texas versus Oklahoma State. Yeah,
43:52
that looks to be it on that side. Yes, Uh, the
43:54
crash course there and I forgot what their record had to head was in the
43:59
Big Twelve. If you can pool? Can you getting faster at typing?
44:06
I'm gonna tellyboy that he is getting better this I just had. We've been
44:09
doing this for almost three years now. He is, he is doing He's
44:14
doing better. Oh geez, I look everything up for him anymore. Looks
44:23
like it says that clinches series. Well, that was a series win over
44:29
them, so schedule and I don't want to go through all that, to
44:35
be honest, M not even checking me in the wrong place anyway. So
44:43
Sean looks that up. Yeah, it's a good potential Big twelve matchup,
44:46
and then you could have a potential Big twelve championship game too. So it
44:51
all depends timely hitting like I've talked about bullshit. I watched Oh you win
44:59
with native hitting. Timely hitting is going to be the creative base running.
45:04
Yeah, there you go, that's what it was, creative base running.
45:07
The timely hitting is when it comes down to this, you've got to have
45:09
a badass pitcher and you've gotta have timely hitting, and that's what will get
45:14
you that championship in Oklahoma City. So do you see the colors on this?
45:20
That's a loss. So many a lot of just so many pop ups.
45:27
Sorry, everybody, we're trying to get. Uh, their their header
45:30
is huge and does not go away. That's we're talking about Oloma State's page.
45:36
Now. This is that. This is the actual Oklahoma state page.
45:37
Okay, I have not hit Texas yet, so we're well, they got
45:43
the jack. We're likely. I think they'll play two series if I'm not
45:45
mistaken. Well that's what. Just so I know the one I know one
45:51
of them is the last one they lost. That one. Remember that was
45:54
a big All right, here we go. Uh, they it one in
46:00
one so far, so they're up two and one, then keep going down
46:07
all the way the bottle. Don's get them again. They wouldn't we got
46:16
two to one so far in the series. I think it's Oklahoma State had
46:21
like a four to two or something like that, if I'm not mistaken.
46:25
Oh shoot, I wasn't super regional. That's end of the season. Oh
46:32
surely no, they just like once. Looks like it, M that's regional.
46:39
Well isn't that? Yeah? They just played once? Huh so they
46:45
took the season two to one. Wow, twenty nine and six, nine
46:55
and three? Yeah? What gate? What hey? What date was that
46:59
on? What date? March twenty, twenty ninth and thirtieth, so long
47:07
ago? One of our ex wife's birthdays? I can't remember which one was
47:14
it. Oh no, I can't remember one of them. Trouble for one
47:20
of them was March thirtieth for me, but no one was thirty one?
47:22
Was thirty one? Yeah? Alright, I was. We was got in
47:27
trouble for it. Moving on anything else? Uh, well, because I'm
47:32
going to keep those little stats right there. I've got my picks Texas,
47:36
no issues, la, Oh you plays issue the championship? Well, of
47:42
course I've got some news. We got the old UFL Birmingham Stallions finally fell.
47:45
Oh no, they lost, They finally bomb. So when's playoffs?
47:52
Are we two weeks away? The regular season ends this weekend? Okay,
47:58
okay, uh get that pool, Come on, come on, just close
48:05
that. Oh I guess I have to. That's a pop up. Doesn't
48:09
make sense. Uh well, hold on, it's not like it's not like
48:16
they're using small type. Everything's exploded, all right. So we have the
48:27
last week, which is week ten. We'll talk about last week. Oh,
48:31
last week. Yeah, let's get a last finals. Arlington beats yeah,
48:37
Arlingcoln beat Saint Louis. Nice win, nice win. Arlington did beat
48:43
they in five point win. I think it was, and I sent you
48:45
the video. They used the old sooner pass. Yes, that was the
48:49
double sooner passer. The Brahmas, who have been a tough team all season,
48:53
did beat the Stallions. Finally, the Stallion's playing sloppy. I did
48:58
get to catch half of that game and it was just like, really it
49:02
was sloppy. It was sloppy football start to finish from what I found out.
49:07
Of course, DC defenders beat the Memphis Showboats, which that's horrible.
49:12
I can't remember who. I think the Panthers beat the Roughnecks in that game.
49:17
We are in week ten, so let's go to nine here, Renegades
49:22
thirty six, battle Hawks twenty two. Second win for Bob Stoops and Crew.
49:27
Brahmas beat Stallion's Night eighteen to nine in a barn burner. And like
49:30
I said, Panthers beat the Roughnecks barely, but they have that I think
49:35
the longest win streak. They've won like seven or eight games in a row.
49:37
The Panthers have or maybe five games in a row, sorry, five
49:39
games in a row, Well they do now. But the Birmingham Stains have
49:43
the longest win streak. Well, I said now because they lost and then
49:47
the Defenders beat the show votes all right, So that's that's And I don't
49:52
think it's really gonna make anything. No, it didn't know. It didn't
49:55
much. Switched the Bramas and the well Panthers and Stallions. Next week that's
50:00
a matchup of first place teams in each one. Uh where what are they
50:05
on the UXF xf s They're on the ufl usfl usfl side, and then
50:09
the Brahmas in the battle Hawks six and three. Essentially you've got the two
50:14
ships four ship teams versus the four good teams are playing each other to end
50:19
the season. It's what, what's what's happening, what's gonna end up end
50:22
up happening? The Rennies are now two and seven, so that's correct.
50:25
Yes, two, we're one, next and show. Currently the Brahmas are
50:32
over the BattleHawks because they were both six and two and six and two.
50:37
So the the battle Hawks win this game, they'll go back up, will
50:40
be the number one. Battle Hawks can take the one seed because they'll be
50:44
the they can take take the one seed back. Currently, the Brahmas are
50:47
the one seed and that's what they play each other. Well, now,
50:52
now can't the Stallions? Won't the Panthers lose the one seed too? Not
50:55
that it matters. I mean the NaNs are already the one seed, but
50:59
the playing the Panthers, who's seven to two, That's what I'm saying.
51:02
They're both on the same side. How would you how would you know that
51:10
they'd be tied? Records that matter? That doesn't matter. They're eight and
51:16
one, no, and Panthers are seven to two and they're playing this week.
51:20
They still hold the RP, the hold the record breaker. How do
51:22
you know that? Professional? Because I am amazing, nobody wants to go
51:29
to just like Ri stallions are the best and they're never going to lose except
51:32
last week, Well, should be a good week, should be the good
51:37
week of the UFL because everyone that's good plays good, and everyone that's bad
51:42
this plays bad, and then they turn around to play each other again,
51:45
so they'll yeah again, that's the whole deal. Then, so there's only
51:47
four teams that make the playoffs. Yeah, now, well they mix that
51:51
up though. They shouldn't play each other from the same division. They should
51:53
go on the opposite side, you know what I mean division, and then
51:59
you go to the playoffs. In the championship, the USFL side plays the
52:05
XFL side. It's like NFC versus AFC. Yeah, that's what you're looking
52:10
at. I don't know why everything is going to be repeated the pretty much
52:16
pretty much plan on that did they Well no, I tell you what,
52:20
I'd rest all my starters and take the loss. Well, the thing,
52:23
the thing that they're doing right now, the thing that they're doing is you've
52:28
got to remember that they cut back from however many teams were in the USFL
52:35
and however many teams you're trying to make money before you just start expanding and
52:39
start throwing ship out there makes sense, But you also forgot about the European
52:46
League of Football which started started. Who can't hold on, I can't spell
52:57
right now? Year he's already there and there it is elf European League Football
53:09
which started Saturday. You don't have the standings already. This is what we're
53:14
looking. Vienna Vikings already want to know. The war Clack Panthers want to
53:17
know the Berlin Thunders is oh and one frog lines on one the to have
53:27
your in throwners all in one team. You know. I looked that up
53:32
the other day. I think it's on that page. If you look for
53:35
it, it's to go back there. I don't know if I wrote if
53:43
it was German or could you find it? Ferrari, I just wrote it
53:53
down. That's what it was. Trio raiders want to know stuff. Guard
54:00
I want to know Barcelona Barcelona twenty seven and five five points they scored.
54:07
Wow. Wherever they lost to you will find them at the bottom. We'd
54:10
have to go look at the yachts. See they played Munich Hellvinic Mercenaries.
54:20
The crowds were alike. Let's get they had the summer, good summer.
54:23
You can watch it on the playing this on now soccer stadiums. No on
54:29
TV. Oh, they're playing in there there, they're playing their own I
54:35
catch it. I catch highlights and stuff through YouTube. I have not really
54:38
figured out how to watch the actual game. I think there's uh, I
54:50
think they've got their own. See they have a game pass here, real
54:58
football. M I'm getting all and there we go. So, oh,
55:06
week two, three days, three days, three days, four days.
55:12
So that's the schedule, and you're looking at stats man. Yes, yes,
55:21
yes, yes, look at you right to stats. That must be
55:25
last year because they hadn't thrown three thousand yards in one game. So we
55:29
have it. We have it, dude, Come on, we have a
55:31
sign up. I guess I could do that. Uh, there's a season
55:37
pass. Oh, I don't know what that would cost. I mean if
55:40
it's like ten bucks American, No, that's twelve bucks, amri. Well
55:47
what is that? Is that a pound or a euro? That's that's the
55:50
euro one and nineteen euro? Damn well, they selling seems a little high.
55:58
What do you what are they selling? They're selling American football average for
56:02
one hundred nineteen bucks. That's not one hundred and nineteen dollars. I don't
56:07
know what the exchange rate is, it would be like eighty euros to cash.
56:13
Yeah, welcome to our debate of how money works. Anyways. So
56:19
yeah, the European League football, So that'll take us football through the summer.
56:22
