  Speaker 3: So our lead this out.
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: We're gonna start out with a topic of conversation that
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: will be near and dear to my heart and in
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: your heart as well for the coming days, coming weeks.
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: That would be tag you're it, Who's getting tagged, who's
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: not getting tagged? NFL free agents always an important day,
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: the tag day. I don't know about you, but in
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: my house we circle that day. It's very important. Who's
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: getting tagged and who's not getting tagged.
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: Oh my, the drama.
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: So there are reports out of Cincinnati that a decision
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: hasn't been made on the future of T Higgins, many
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: anticipating T Higgins changing teams. Well, if you didn't see this,
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: maybe not a surprise. Surprise, not a surprise, say what?
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: So we are told the ben Gals, the Ben Gals
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: plan to use the dreaded franchise tag on T Higgins.
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: If that sounds like a doppelganger of a year ago,
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: that is because that is exactly what happened last year.
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: That would be the second straight offseason that the Cincinnati
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: football team has used the franchise tag on T Higgins. Now,
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: the story says that the Higgins camp. Now, you know
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: you're big when you have a camp. I don't have
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: a camp. There's no camp. There's no Mallard camp. I
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: don't have a camp.
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: You know you're.
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: Important you have a camp, You've arrived. If you have
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: a camp. How many people are in a camp? Could
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: you have like two people in a camp? Does it
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: have to be three? How about how many? Four?
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: Five?
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: How many people in camp? I'd like to know when
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: does one become a camp because I don't have a camp.
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: I'd like to have a camp, but I don't have
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: a camp. How do you get a camp? How do
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: people know when you have a camp? Do you announce you.
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: Have a camp?
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: Do you say, hey, I have a camp? Like who
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: determines the camp? And what if it's a fake camp?
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: What happens then? I need answers. Anyway, So Higgins expects
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: to be tagged, and that would be mean that he
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: would play yet again in Theory in Cincinnati and would
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: not hit the free agent market. Now, the reason today
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: is an important day. This is our Tuesday show. It's
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: still late on the West Coast on Monday. Hey, but
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: we live in the world of Tuesday because this our
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: Tuesday Show. So the tag window officially opens. Is everyone ready?
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: Four pm Eastern, one o'clock Pacific? Whoa yeahoo, man alive.
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: Tag Day. It's Tag Day, kids, It's Tag. No one
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: go to school.
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: It's Tag Day now. That begins at four pm. It'll
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: last until March fourth. Wow, that's all. That's a big
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: period of time. March fourth at four pm. So you
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: can do the math on that. But that's the period
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: of time. So let us discuss the question the Bengals
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: planning to use the non exclusive, non exclusive franchise tag
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: on wide receiver T Higgins for the second consecutive year.
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: Can you decipher what this actually means? So I've got vegetables, Batman,
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: and paradise, and we will combine all of these things
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: together and we'll take a dive off a boat, is
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: what we're going to do.
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: So ay, I will solve the Rubik's cube.
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: I have all of the powers invested in me by
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: the mighty powerful microphones of Fox Sports Radio. And I
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: will use football jargon. I will keep it simple, stupid.
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: I will relate to the common man. And here's the
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: story on T. Higgins and the franchise tag with the Bengals.
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: The Bengals are proudly accepting the yellow flag for delay
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: of game. Delay of game in football jargon a five
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: yard penalty, move the chains back. It is a procrastination
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: situation for the Cincinnati football team. Now what reports say
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: that they want to extend T.
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: Higgins.
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: I'm sure they do wink wink, nod nod, and they
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: would like to have him under contract long term. We
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: are skeptics. I much like the Great State of Missouri
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: may show me state of mind. It is more likely
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: than not that there are ulterior motives in play here.
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: That the Bengals are doing what I did when I
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: was a kid. My mom would yell at me to
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: finish my food, and I would play with my vegetables.
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: The Bengals are playing with their vegetables. They are more
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: than content to go year to year to year to
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: year with Higgins, and Cincinnati would love for a team
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: like the Chargers or the Patriots to step in there
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: and negotiate a long term contract with T. Higgins and
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: work out a trade. Now, they're not going to get
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: two first round picks for T.
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: Higgins.
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: The way this usually works in the past is you
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: agree to a contractor, Higgins finds a team he wants
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: to play for, and then they drop the tag, and
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: then Higgins gets traded for less than two first round picks,
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: and there will be some kind of compensation agreement. He'll
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: work out some kind of goodie bag that will go
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: to Cincinnati. Now, as for the play, you talk about hardship.
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: I don't know about you, but man, can we all
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: say a prayer for T. Higgins because this now guarantees
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: him If this does happen the way it's said to happen,
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: and his camp thinks that's going to happen, that means T.
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: Higgins will make at the.
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: Very worst, twenty six point one million dollars in twenty
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: twenty five on the franchise tag. So he's he's buying eggs.
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: He's buying the eggs, and he'll buy eggs for everybody.
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: All right, Now to Minunes doa we go home of
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: an epic Malard meet and greet. A couple of years
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: back there it was wonderful, The Mermaid met so many
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: great supporters of the show that night.
• 7:50
  Speaker 3: But we go to Minnesota.
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: That as where a star wide receiver, Justin Jefferson is
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: publicly recruiting a new teammate, which is not his teammate yet,
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: but he is making the effort to acquire Brown's defensive star,
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: Miles Garrett wants him to come to the Vikings. So
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: how much juice does that have? How much juice does
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: that have? So if you look at the glass of juice,
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: the glass is ep date. It is update and from
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: the Great Batman cartoons, the character known as the Joker,
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: if you might remember that back in the day, the
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: Joker would say something along the lines of zero zip, zilch, nada. Yes,
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: it is nothing more than wishful thinking by Justin Jefferson.
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: The reason I bring this up is because I was
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: contacted by more than one die hard Minnesota Viking fans says, hey,
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: you should talk about this tonight in the show and.
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: Clearly not paying attention.
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: Every other time an athlete says I'm going to public
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: recruit another athlete, and I roll my eyes in the
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: back of my head. No differ, And here all Jefferson
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: does is win some Brownie points with the electorate in Minnesota.
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: Good for him. Other than that, it is meaningless, meaningless, meaningless, meaningless.
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: I mean, I'm sure it's cool if you're Miles Garrett,
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: to get some kind of handwritten note, maybe a FaceTime
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: call from Justin Jefferson kissing your ass and saying how
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: wonderful you are and you feel the love and admiration.
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: And that's great public displays of affection. Wonderful, wonderful, very flattering.
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: It's very flattering. But this in between bizarro world where
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: some people are convinced that this stuff actually matters, I
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: am not, I am not. Ultimately comes down to money, money, money.
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: It's always about money. That's number one. Number two would
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: be location. Some people actually say they want to win,
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: but really just want to be closer to some relative
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: or something like that. So there's other variables in play there.
• 9:59
  Speaker 3: We know that.
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: And why would you want if you if you're Miles Garrett,
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: you got one spin of the wheel, one shot, Why
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: would you pick the Minnesota Vikings. That's not the Vikings
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: are bad. They're not bad. The Vikings are a playoff team. However,
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: the Vikings also don't have a quarterback. They didn't have
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: one last year. They won a bunch of games, but
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: they were exposed when they played down the stretch against
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: the Lions and then Rams and the playoffs, and now
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: they're going to turn to another question mark from Sam Darnold.
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: They go to JJ McCarthy, who did not play it
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: down what was supposed to be his rookie year, and
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: he takes over center in Minnesota. So the Great Unknown.
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: So if you're Miles Garrett, why would you sign up
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: for that, the Great Unknown?
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: You wouldn't.
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: You'd go to the Lions or the Eagles, or the Chiefs,
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: maybe Buffalo. But who knows what Cleveland would would and
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: wouldn't do in terms of the trades. But all the
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: indications are also that the Clean Browns think that Miles
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: Garrett is lying and they're gonna call his bluff the
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: Cleveland Browns. There's some some chatter the streets are talking.
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: The Browns seem to think that Miles Garrett is full
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: of crap, much like the Cleveland Brown locker room, and
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: that if they just throw money at him, he'll just
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: shut up and agree to playing Cleveland for the rest
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: of his career. That they'll offer him some monstrous amount
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: of money and then all of a sudden, I'll say, well,
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: I really want to go from Cleveland to Canton. That's
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: really what I want to do. Stay tuned, developing hot
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: dot dot dot. Now last word, we go to New York,
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: New York with airon Rodgers done.
• 11:43
  Speaker 3: With the Jets, done with it? What's being the jet?
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: You see that plane flip over in Toronto? How crazy
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: was that man?
• 11:50
  Speaker 3: That was nuts? That video? Wow?
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: Anyway, uh so, as far as the actual football Jets,
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: which are not real Jets and cannot flip over, although
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: they do fall on their face pretty much every every
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: single Sunday during the football season. So Aaron Rodgers done
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: with the Jets. They need a quarterback and they are
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: said to be I love this, not a sleeper, sell
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: a sleeper option for the Jets, and that is justin
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: fields in free agency, so there's said to be mutual
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: interest between both parties. So thumbs up, thumbs down, thumbs up,
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: thumbs down. Would justin fields make sense for the j
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: e ts suck Suck, Suck Jets. So I'm gonna go
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: thumbs down on this. I'm gonna go thumbs down on this.
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: You're talking about a two time loser, now that makes
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: him the perfect Jets some would say, But if you're
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: trying to actually turn this thing around, I would run
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: the other direction away. From Justin Field. He was a
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: bust with the Bears, right, he sucked with the Bears.
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: He was benched the biggest crime of all in Pittsburgh
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: with a good team, a good team around him, I
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: supposely winning environment in Pittsburgh and a better coaching staff
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: with Mike Tomlin and Justin Fields could not hold on
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: to the starting job and was benched in favor of
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: a second rate tird like Russell Wilson. That is a
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: referendum on Justin Fields. That Mike Tomlin thought so little
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: of Justin Fields that he would rather play the rodding
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: carcass of Russell Wilson than play Justin Fields down the
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: stretch and on cue, Russell Wilson collapsed, and still Mike
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: Tomlin did not go back to Justin Fields in any
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: meaningful way. That tells you all you need to know
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: about Justin Fields. So why would you go down that road.
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: It's a paradise, It's a fool's paradise, right, what's the
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: old line go, You fool me once and that shame
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: on you. Fool me twice, Shame on me, and fool
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: me three times, shame on both of us. And that's
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: the NFL in general, Fields has just not been very
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: good other than spot moments here and there, and he's
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: been in the NFL from more than a minute now.
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: He has You know, he's the hot girl at the
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: bar that you keep buying drinks and she flirts with
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: you and she teases you and then she leaves with
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: somebody else. That's That's essentially what Fields is, although I
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: don't know if he leaves with anybody. He just kind
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: of goes home by himself. At this point, feels is
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: a long shot. If you were betting money, if I
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: gave you one thousand dollars of house money and I said,
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: what is going to happen to justin feels the rest
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: of the way, is he going to be anything more
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: than just a gadget guy? I would bet on gadget guy.
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: My money would be on gadget guy. I'd go gadget guy.
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: That would be my money. He's nothing more than a
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: gadget guy. Like occasionally they'll put him out there'll run
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: around a little bit and that's it, but not a
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: full time starter on a playoff team.

• 16:23
  Speaker 3: now our lead.
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: This hour is from the day after and the days
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: of Our Lives drama the day after Here the All
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: Star Game post mortem, the autopsy on the All Star Game.
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: Commissioner on blast, on blast for the fugsey, the dingle
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: Berry edition of the All Star Game. The only one
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: I know who likes it other than the commissioner is
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: Andre and his dog willis from the Commonwealth. So over
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: the All Star weekend, we had a cheating scandal in
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: a skills challenge with Wemby, the next face of the
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: NBA and Chris Paul. You had Lebron James show up
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: late on Saturday and he couldn't be bothered to put
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: on his uniform for the team photo, and then an
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: hour or so before the game, skipped out on playing
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: in the All Star Game. Rather than allowing someone else
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: the opportunity to play in the All Star Game if
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: he had done it the right way and announced, I
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: don't know Thursday or Friday he wasn't going to play
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: in the All Star Game. And then you had the
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: game interrupted because of a Mister Beast challenge. The All
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: Star Game, you also had an interruption for a very
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: public eulogy for the TNT broadcast crew, which A is
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: not dead and B will be broadcasting NBA games next year.
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: But they paused all of that. Now, if you have
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: not heard the latest on this, it gets even better.
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: I think this is a great story, and I have
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: the editorial control over the microphones right now the bully play.
• 18:00
  Speaker 3: So perhaps you didn't see this, maybe not.
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: An anonymous NBA general manager The anonymous The anonymous NBA
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: general manager calling out Adam Silver, unfiltered commentary quote, Adam
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: Silver is obsessed with tournaments play in in season now
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: All Star They've not proven to benefit our league. Close quote. Okay, then,
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: how do you really feel? That's what we call kids?
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: The money quote? I know you're excited by that. You
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: knew that was the money quote. Of course it is,
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: So let us discuss the question for the esteem panel.
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: This anonymous NBA executive calling out Adam Silver, the face
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: of the NBA leadership the Commissioner's office in Midtown Manhattan,
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: there saying, quote, Adam Silver is obsessed with tournaments play
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: in in season now All Star. They have not proven
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: to benefit our league. What is your initial reaction to that?
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: So I've got.
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: Grasshopper, cake and balloons and Wendy's and we will combine
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: all of these things together and we are going to
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: make a forty first point which could not have been scored.
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: Could not have been scored in the All Star Game
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: because they stopped playing at forty in each game. Could
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: not have gone to forty one. So my first thought,
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: na Burn, I said nab Burn, the comment from the
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: unknown executive, I would say, it hit the bullseye.
• 19:42
  Speaker 3: It hit the bullseye.
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: If it was a lego, it snapped together with another lego,
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: it worked. And Adam Silver has been infatuated with this
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: michigas of these tournaments. And it's because of football. That's
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: why European basketball. But football has had a lot of
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: success with friendlies and these type of things. And so
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: Adam Silver it's his life's passion. He has a grasshopper
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: up his tushy for more tournaments. He thinks this is
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: the path to the yellow brick road, that here's a tournament,
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: there's a tournament, everyone gets a tournament. We now, there
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: is no evidence that any of this is helping the
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: business of basketball. It's not the funny thing about the
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: tournament thing. There is one tournament I will garren to
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: you that would be a success for the NBA, would
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: be a money maker for the NBA, would be great
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: for basketball. And Adam Silver and the leadership in the
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: NBA don't want to do it because it goes against
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: the core values.
• 20:54
  Speaker 3: Of the NBA.
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: What is that that is NBA Star in America versus
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: the World Stars.
• 21:04
  Speaker 3: And you wouldn't do that.
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: Wouldn't really be a tournament, more like a one on one,
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: you know, team All Star game.
• 21:09
  Speaker 3: We have the US All Stars versus the World Stars.
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: And from what I have deciphered from people that I've
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: spoken to, they don't want to do it because they
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: would have to wrap themselves in pro America because there's
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: nothing the American sports fan loves more. And really, anywhere
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: wherever you're from, you love wrapping yourself in patriotism for
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: your country. And the NBA has long stood anti America stuff.
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: They love that.
• 21:36
  Speaker 3: You know, they've done a lot of anti American things
• 21:38
  Speaker 3: over the years.
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: So for them to all of a sudden wrap themselves
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: around the flag and be like, all right, this is
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: organ We're gonna have a World Stars Versus American Stars
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: and all the marbles. Be a massive success, huge ratings,
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: be great. But somebody might wrap themselves in the flag,
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: and that would go against the core principles of the NBA,
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: so they won't do that. Instead, we have this lame,
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: oh in season tournament, lame to the membrane. You have
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: the All Star Tournament, which is unnecessary. You've got the
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: playing Tournament, which is ridiculous. You already have an eighty
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: two game play in tournament to decide who's in the playoffs,
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: but then you have to give some of the losers
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: an extra chance to try to get in the playoffs.
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: And so we have all this, but wait, there's more.
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: I'm not done. You think I'm done, but I'm not done.
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: All right, Adam Silver wants to add another tournament to
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: the All Star Game, a one on one tournament.
• 22:37
  Speaker 3: That's right. There's a lot of.
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: Chatter that Adam next year at the All Star Game,
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: a one on one action with a one million dollar prize,
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: which for me would be life changing. I imagine for
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: you if you got a million dollar prize and after
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: taxes that's about one hundred thousand. But still it's a
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: lot of money, a lot of money, right, and they
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: want this one on one thing. But the problem is
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: the biggest stars in the NBA they won't do it.
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: And b don't need that money because they're all making
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: forty fifty sixty million dollars a year.
• 23:05
  Speaker 3: So what do they care.
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: They wiped their ass and they make a million dollars
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: when they flush the toilet paper down the commode there
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: that they make a million dollars, So what do they care?
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: By one on one tournament? And somebody needs to send
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: Adam Silver to a twelve step program at this point, okay,
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: and he is obsessed with these tournaments. It's not working
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: for the customer. It's not any thinks, Well, I just keep.
• 23:34
  Speaker 3: Doing it, you know, be the way to go.
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: You're handing out a championship. This in season thing that's
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: like the lamest of them all, Like no one's watching
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: before Christmas. So let's have an in season tournament and
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: we'll hang a banner, dum du dumb, dumb dum mar
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: right now pay two. So Kevin Durant went off unhinged
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: All Star Kevin Durant. He will parts the words of Durant.
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: He went on a rant on social media. You didn't
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: see this, Durant, I will, I will pretend I'm Kevin Durant.
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: I'm not Kevin Durant. Kevin Durant said, I quote, I
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: think it's more fun to complain about the NBA than
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: to actually watch it, meaning the NBA crazy cancel All
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: Star weekend, Kevin Durant said, And let's just give everybody
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: a break since we're so miserable around this time. Well
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: that is another money quote. Yeah, that's a great quote.
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: Now Durant's complaining because people complain about them playing and
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: how bad the product is. So how do you process?
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: Here's the question, how do you process Kevin Durant, many
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: time All Star Hall of Fame player, Kevin Durant, one
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: of the great ball players of his generation. Kevin Durant
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: saying it's more fun to complain about the NBA than
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: to actually watch the NBA. So obviously there was some
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: sarcasm in play here, as someone that dabbles in the
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: ancient arts of sarcasm. I understand that, but someone should
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: buy KD Cake and balloons, Cake and balloons because he
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: is having a pity party. He's having a pity party, right,
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: there's sarcasm, but there's some truth in that. He's like,
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: he's a nooy, he's like anyone out there to play
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: in the All Star Game.
• 25:16
  Speaker 3: And he bothers him that.
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: People don't appreciate the fact that he's playing in the
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: All Star Game.
• 25:21
  Speaker 3: Boohoo hoo.
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: The customers are complaining, which is actually a good thing.
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: That means that they want to like your product. And
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: I go back to the most powerful thing that you
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: have as a consumer, whether it's buying products, whether it's
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: watching sports. It's the a word not ass apathy. And
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: if you show apathy and you just don't care and
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: you don't watch and you don't consume, that is poison,
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: that is asbestos that.
• 25:49
  Speaker 3: Will do them in.
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: But as long as you care and you're upset, that
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: means you want to like the product. So it's actually
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: a good thing that many people are upset with the
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: NBA product. And I look at it this this way.
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: I'll use an analogy like you're in a restaurant, you're
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: in a deli, and they say you're running a deli.
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: You have a forty eight page menu at the dela.
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: It's a pretty big menu, forty eight pages, and you
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: open the deli and people seem to enjoy pretty much
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: everything in the menu, all forty eight pages. People like
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: the menu. You've got a good variety of items, and
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: people are ordering things from all forty eight pages of
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: the menu. So things are going well. For years, people
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: enjoy the variety of foods. But over time customers start
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: not enjoying the vast majority of the pages of the
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: menu at the deli and instead they order they only
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: like like three things.
• 26:36
  Speaker 3: That's it.
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: So how do you handle that situation? You run the deli,
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: what do you do well? Kevin Durant says, nothing good happens,
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: nothing good enough happens for the fans right now, He said,
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: the only thing they enjoy is playoffs, trade deadline, free agency,
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: and when players beef with each other. And that is true.
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: And the reason all of that is true is because
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: it's compelling. All of that is entertaining. You know, it's
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: not entertaining. Load management on a random Tuesday night in
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: the NBA. That's not entertaining, that's not right, And those
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: things that Durant mentioned are all interesting and it creates engagement.
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: Playoff basketball players actually try. They take pride in that
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: it's a big deal that matters. Trade deadline and free
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: agency are captivating because your mind wanders, what's the team
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: going to be like now with the new player and
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: you get to see the players in their new uniforms,
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: and that's exciting players. Grumbling is always fun. Who doesn't
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: like a nice workplace? Debate if you will solid right
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: a regular seasons? Not entertaining the All Star Game sucks,
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: and on and on. So rather than improve the ingredients,
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: Kevin Durant's argument is, hey, let's just let's just get
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: We'll just get rid of it. Let's take a vacation,
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: go go wherever Paul George is. Put some suntan locehan on.
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: All right, now, final point. We now have the tail
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: of the tape, the tale of the tape. Just how bad,
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: how terrible was the new look NBA All Star Game?
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: For the viewer of the All Star Game, I remember
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: we took a call from Andre and the Commonwealth, who
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: loved the All Star Game. He thought it was great,
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: but for everyone else and their mother, they were like, man,
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: this blows all right, so just how terrible the New
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: Look All Star Game was the tail of the tape.
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: It was like watching a commercial for Windy's back in
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: the day. Where's the beef? Where is the beef? Where
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: is it? Or in this case, where's the basketball? They've
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: done the math. The broadcast had forty two minutes of
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: actual basketball over three games, with one hundred and thirty
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: eight minutes of commercials. Let me repeat that for those
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: of you that are inebriated, So forty two minutes of
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: actual basketball, one hundred and thirty eight minutes of commercials
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: or filler like mister Beast and Charles Barkley and Shaq
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: and Kenny Smith being eulogized like they've just dropped dead
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: when they're still very much alive. And we'll be calling
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: NBA games next year. If you want to break down
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: my computer, like brain tells me using malor math, that
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: works out to seventy six point six percent filler, seventy
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: six point six percent filler. Eighty minutes were straight commercials.
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: Eighty minutes were straight commercials. Nothing but commercials, and I
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: love commercials, but that means, if you do the math
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: on this, the actual basketball for the All Star Game
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: was twenty three point three percent and the advertisements were
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: forty four point four percent. The math I ain't mathin
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: on that. The numbers just don't add up. Whoever signed
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: off on that being an upgrade? Who goofed? I've got
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: to know should be sent out to Siberia is where
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: they should be said, like, what are you doing here?
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: That's your showcase event and it's twenty three per point
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: three percent basketball and then there's whatever that mister Beast
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: thing was, and then forty four point four percent commercial.
• 30:25
  Speaker 2: May be sure to catch live editions of The Ben
• 30:27
  Speaker 2: Meller Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific.
• 30:34
  Speaker 2: To the third degree, this is one big event.
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: Gets here we go, Let's go over to Kooper Loop
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: the reading of the questions on Malard to the third Degree.
• 30:45
  Speaker 5: The Washington Commanders are currently the betting favorite to land
• 30:48
  Speaker 5: discgruntled Brown star Miles Garrett. Now Benwood landing Garrett close
• 30:51
  Speaker 5: the gap between the Commanders and the Eagles.
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, obviously, yes he's a good player. Yes, so yeah,
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: you add another good player. That's a nice edition. And
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: Miles Garrett. He hasn't closed the gap for the Cleveland
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: Browns because they don't have a quarterback. They have bad
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: players all over the place. But the big thing here
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: is what happens to the Commanders now that they came
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: out of nowhere and they got to the NFC Championship game.
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: Now they've got a bullseye on him. So how do
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: they handle that and all the immense pressure. But yes,
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: adding Miles Garrett where he could make three or four
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: impact plays per game that could turn a game in
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: your favor, could kill the other team's drives, absolutely, that
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: would be a massive pickup for the Commanders.
• 31:32
  Speaker 5: Next, along with hating on the All Star game format,
• 31:35
  Speaker 5: Draymond Green also announced that the Warriors would win another
• 31:38
  Speaker 5: championship this year with Jimmy Butler. Yes, Ben, what is
• 31:41
  Speaker 5: the actual ceiling for the Warriors?
• 31:43
  Speaker 3: No, I agree.
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: I think as long as they stick to video games,
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: the Golden State Warriors can win a championship this year.
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: But you didn't Steph Curry like laugh at that. Even
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: like Steph was laughing at that, he thought that was
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: like comedy. Like Draymond was working material for his podcast
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: or something like that. No, I love Jimmy Butler, I
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: don't love as much because of the shenani as he
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: pulled in Miami and all that he got into a
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: beef with Riley. I don't know what really happened there.
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: But the Warriors are good. They're old, though, and old
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: teams break down, and they will break down, and so
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: because of that, the ceiling is the second round of
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: the playoffs next.
• 32:16
  Speaker 5: Justin Verlander and Max Schurz are both in their forties
• 32:18
  Speaker 5: and nearing the ends of their illustrious careers. They're number
• 32:22
  Speaker 5: ten and number eleven, respectively on the all time strikeout
• 32:25
  Speaker 5: leaders list, separated by only nine strikeouts?
• 32:28
  Speaker 3: Ben, Who do you think finishes the career higher on
• 32:30
  Speaker 3: the list. So I'm gonna go with Verlander because I
• 32:32
  Speaker 3: just don't trust Sures. I mean, they both hurt a lot.
• 32:34
  Speaker 3: They're both passed the expiration date.
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: But Verlander with the Agantes for half a year until
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: he's traded to a good team.
• 32:40
  Speaker 3: I'll go Verlander. How do we know you pass the day?
• 32:44
  Speaker 3: Another win?
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: I've got more wins than anybody at this game.
• 32:48
  Speaker 3: I'm the only one that plays. Really.
