- 0:23Speaker 1: Good evening, everybody. Welcome to another edition of the Sports Exchange.

- 0:35Speaker 2: All right? Man?
- 0:37Speaker 1: All right? Well, you know, johnshu Door like the fact
- 0:39Speaker 1: that we're starting at nine oh four, But I don't
- 0:40Speaker 1: know if you actually reference that to the Jacksonville area go,
- 0:43Speaker 1: which is also nine oh four. So I didn't know
- 0:45Speaker 1: if you realize you got some unexpected knowledge that you
- 0:48Speaker 1: just got just a moment ago. But nevertheless, it is
- 0:50Speaker 1: what it is. Topics for tonight. All you need to
- 0:54Speaker 1: do is look at the title talking about Miami Hurricane,
- 0:56Speaker 1: stand out wide receiver Xavier or Streppo. We're gonna talk
- 0:59Speaker 1: about out dick Edburg. Look or what we're gonna talk
- 1:02Speaker 1: about dick Edburg. Stay tuned. I don't think Candy is
- 1:04Speaker 1: gonna like that segment at all. We're gonna talk about
- 1:07Speaker 1: Joel Einbi. I'm sick and tired of talk about this guy,
- 1:09Speaker 1: but we gotta do what we gotta do. NFL points
- 1:12Speaker 1: leaders and laughing out least Charles Barkley, maybe a few
- 1:16Speaker 1: minutes for partying shots at the very end. With that said,
- 1:19Speaker 1: let's get this going because the natives are restless. We
- 1:23Speaker 1: got blows, we got Jagerdor, and we have my insanity. Okay,
- 1:28Speaker 1: that needs to be saying. Otherwise I'll never keep up
- 1:31Speaker 1: with the guy, but love the energy in the chat
- 1:32Speaker 1: room nevertheless. All right, well, let's talk about our top
- 1:37Speaker 1: storyline of the night, the connection with cam Ward and
- 1:41Speaker 1: coached by Mario Chris bo. Yes you guessed it, I'm
- 1:44Speaker 1: talking to Xavier or Strepo. This season fifty receptions, eight
- 1:47Speaker 1: hundred and fifty six yards, nine touchdowns. His career numbers
- 1:50Speaker 1: are one hundred and eighty two receptions for two five
- 1:53Speaker 1: hundred and seventy three yards. He first all time with
- 1:56Speaker 1: the Miami Hurricanes. And you know what, this guy got
- 2:01Speaker 1: nineteen TVs to go along with it. Great kid, and yes,
- 2:04Speaker 1: Joshua Door made reference. I have a great relationship with
- 2:07Speaker 1: this guy. He really is a good kid. So JB,
- 2:10Speaker 1: I only have some good advice for you. Watch out
- 2:13Speaker 1: for this kid when he's in Indy, and I expect
- 2:16Speaker 1: you to get an interview of your own with this guy,
- 2:18Speaker 1: or at least get a question. And of course I
- 2:20Speaker 1: get the pro day fair enough, so let's see. Yeah,
- 2:24Speaker 1: so we're gonna start off with jv Ellis some talks
- 2:27Speaker 1: about Xavierustruppel. What do you know about this guy? And
- 2:30Speaker 1: after we get down, we have a sound blite that
- 2:32Speaker 1: we're gonna play from Saturday's game.
- 2:33Speaker 3: Go ahead, Joe, he just a special some some players
- 2:38Speaker 3: just have it, and he just displays his skills. I mean,
- 2:41Speaker 3: he has a great relationship with cam Ward. He goes
- 2:45Speaker 3: out there every week and he's and he just he balls.
- 2:48Speaker 3: You know, He's a valuable asset to the team. He's
- 2:52Speaker 3: one of the leaders out there and he just does
- 2:55Speaker 3: this thing every week. He gotta love what he does.
- 2:58Speaker 1: Very personable guy. I remember at the Miami Pro Day,
- 3:01Speaker 1: I wasn't able to get any interviews there, but Javiytreppo
- 3:06Speaker 1: was standing right out there, and I say, he got
- 3:07Speaker 1: a few minutes there, no problem. We got six seven minutes, Kadie.
- 3:10Speaker 1: How many views did we get? Over two thousand views
- 3:12Speaker 1: on that six seven minute that's a lot. Well it
- 3:16Speaker 1: to tell you something, it taught me a lot about
- 3:18Speaker 1: what we put up there and how short these things
- 3:20Speaker 1: have to be to cater to attentions. Xamier was a
- 3:23Speaker 1: class act, all right. George.
- 3:26Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, you know, look at his numbers this year.
- 3:28Speaker 2: You know he he had one hundred and sixty three
- 3:31Speaker 2: yards and against cal and then in Duke against Duke
- 3:36Speaker 2: one hundred and forty six yards receiving. I mean, just
- 3:39Speaker 2: incredible in his numbers from last year too. He ended
- 3:41Speaker 2: the year with almost eleven hundred yards rushing. I'm sorry receiving.
- 3:45Speaker 2: Excuse me, but he's already got nine touchdowns this year.
- 3:49Speaker 2: Last year he had six all total. Just a great
- 3:52Speaker 2: combination with him and Ward and he's doing a great job.
- 3:56Speaker 2: And boy, his stock is rising. His stock is rising
- 4:00Speaker 2: every week and every win that Miami and the Hurricanes
- 4:03Speaker 2: and you guys are covering them, you see them all
- 4:05Speaker 2: the time. But yeah, I mean, I'm hearing great things
- 4:08Speaker 2: about this kid, and obviously the numbers still show, but
- 4:11Speaker 2: it goes beyond numbers. Like you're saying, he's a good interview,
- 4:14Speaker 2: he's a good, good person to talk to, and he's
- 4:16Speaker 2: got his head on his shoulders in the right way.
- 4:18Speaker 2: And then like I said, with with Cam Wore doing
- 4:21Speaker 2: the tossing and him doing the receiving, they got a
- 4:25Speaker 2: great one two punch right down there.
- 4:26Speaker 1: They really do. Mary Crystal was the guy. And I'm
- 4:29Speaker 1: going to tell you one thing about him. He's valuable
- 4:31Speaker 1: on special teams. He does stuff with hot returns for sure.
- 4:35Speaker 1: And I'll tell you one thing about him. He's been
- 4:36Speaker 1: injured a little bit the last few years. Otherwise his
- 4:39Speaker 1: numbers will be far greater. But there's nobody that's seen
- 4:41Speaker 1: him more than I have, but or as much as
- 4:44Speaker 1: except Kennedy. I'm Blaine, Go ahead.
- 4:45Speaker 4: Candy Ristrepo attended Saint Thomas Aquinas High School in Fort Lauderdale, Florida,
- 4:51Speaker 4: before transferring to Deerfield Beach High School in Deerfield Beach. Now,
- 4:56Speaker 4: if anybody knows anything, Deerfield Beach produces all lot of
- 5:01Speaker 4: football greats. During his high school career, he had forty
- 5:05Speaker 4: eight total touchdowns, three thousand receiving yards, twenty five hundred
- 5:10Speaker 4: rushing yards, and eight interceptions. He came to move to
- 5:15Speaker 4: Miami back in twenty twenty. He played nine games is
- 5:19Speaker 4: true freshman year, he had one reception for twelve yards.
- 5:24Speaker 4: He is now up to he has taken the all
- 5:28Speaker 4: time lead for yards for University of Miami. That says
- 5:33Speaker 4: a lot knowing how many people have played for Miami.
- 5:38Speaker 1: Hey Pasman, How you doing. Glad to have you on? Yes, Josh,
- 5:41Speaker 1: he definitely is loco. So with that said, let's go
- 5:43Speaker 1: ahead and put a clip in there. I asked him
- 5:45Speaker 1: a question on Saturday about his record breaking night with
- 5:50Speaker 1: an incredible team that he has. Go ahead, well talk,
- 5:53Speaker 1: let's X get take over and give me a break.
- 5:57Speaker 1: You've been through the upside downs with the program, and
- 6:00Speaker 1: now you have an opportunity to get that accomplishment and
- 6:02Speaker 1: you get the team is still undefeated. How does it feel?
- 6:05Speaker 1: Does it magnify the accomplishment that the team is still
- 6:08Speaker 1: undefeated and you have a lot of growth to go
- 6:11Speaker 1: for the rest of the year. I think the most
- 6:13Speaker 1: important thing is that we're undefeated.
- 6:15Speaker 5: I mean, yeah, I got I got hurt, you know
- 6:18Speaker 5: twenty two Uh, you know, help me back a little bit.
- 6:21Speaker 5: But I think the most important thing right now is
- 6:24Speaker 5: the team's success. Without any of the team's success, none,
- 6:28Speaker 5: none of this would matter at all, you know. So
- 6:31Speaker 5: I think us just going I want to know each
- 6:33Speaker 5: and every single week. I think that's the most important thing.
- 6:35Speaker 1: I'll share you all right, So there you go. I
- 6:38Speaker 1: answered this question during our post game media availability and
- 6:41Speaker 1: again as Joshua Doorth alluded to a couple of times here. Yes,
- 6:44Speaker 1: I do have a good relationship. But the biggest thing
- 6:48Speaker 1: you have to understand when you're covering games is I
- 6:50Speaker 1: and I remember this during the Bad Boys there covering
- 6:53Speaker 1: the NBA is I had good relationships with James Edwards,
- 6:57Speaker 1: Joe Dumars, Dennis Rodman as well. So the way I
- 7:01Speaker 1: look at it, there's some players you can always go to.
- 7:03Speaker 1: They're always going to be there for you. Butlexander or
- 7:06Speaker 1: Streppo was just a special guy. He really is and
- 7:09Speaker 1: whatever team lands him, okay, he has had the greatest
- 7:12Speaker 1: quarterback play here at Miami was a Tyler van Dijk
- 7:16Speaker 1: last year, Candy and he's had so He's played with
- 7:20Speaker 1: some sub park quarterback. This kid is just one of
- 7:24Speaker 1: those kids that is a very humble human being, is
- 7:29Speaker 1: what he is. And I'm gonna tell you something, Joe,
- 7:34Speaker 1: just you watch when he goes over to the NFL
- 7:37Speaker 1: scouting combine. I can I guarantee now that you've got
- 7:41Speaker 1: a little bit of a sneak preview of what he's
- 7:42Speaker 1: all about, we expect some big things out of you,
- 7:45Speaker 1: mister Allis, Because I'm gonna tell you never know if
- 7:48Speaker 1: he's gonna be playing for some of the teams that
- 7:49Speaker 1: you might be connected with. Sounds good. I look forward
- 7:54Speaker 1: to it. Yeah, he's a great kid and everybody loves him.
- 7:58Speaker 1: But I think that's interesting. And I've asked him this
- 8:00Speaker 1: question and we've played it on previous shows that you
- 8:04Speaker 1: know him and Cam Wore work very hard together, is
- 8:06Speaker 1: what they really really do, and that's why their chemistry
- 8:10Speaker 1: is as good as it is. So let's go on
- 8:13Speaker 1: to another subject, one that Candy Eveley will not like.
- 8:17Speaker 1: But you know what, I don't make these things up.
- 8:20Speaker 1: They just happened before our eyes. And as the late Edinburgh,
- 8:23Speaker 1: as a late dick Enburg would say, oh my, what
- 8:28Speaker 1: has happened in the Milwaukee Bucks? My goodness? One in six,
- 8:32Speaker 1: one hundred and forty three percentage last in the East.
- 8:35Speaker 1: They have a six game losing streak in the Central Division.
- 8:39Speaker 1: So are we gonna call this the curse of Adrian
- 8:44Speaker 1: Griffin who's thirty and thirteen after forty three games. From
- 8:48Speaker 1: Mike Bodenholder, who's six and one in the Pacific Division
- 8:52Speaker 1: at eight fifty seven percent in first place with the
- 8:54Speaker 1: Phoenix Suns. Because Doc rivers right now is eighteen and
- 8:57Speaker 1: twenty five, and he's trying to reassure fans that they'll
- 9:00Speaker 1: get into playoffs. But my goodness, Adrian Griffin must be
- 9:05Speaker 1: laughing at all as hard as he can. But we're
- 9:07Speaker 1: going to start off with Candy. I mean, I'm trying
- 9:10Speaker 1: to go ahead weight on this topic, thinking that the
- 9:12Speaker 1: Bucks could trade it out, but at some point you
- 9:14Speaker 1: just have to come to the reality that the Bucks
- 9:16Speaker 1: aren't good.
- 9:19Speaker 4: So they're also without Chris Middleton, who had surgery over
- 9:23Speaker 4: the over the offseason and he has not played a
- 9:27Speaker 4: game yet. He is still recovering. Brook Lopez is having
- 9:31Speaker 4: a lights out defensive year, but he is in what
- 9:36Speaker 4: you would call a big slump shooting wise. I think
- 9:41Speaker 4: he's ten of thirty five are on the three point arc.
- 9:47Speaker 4: So is it a coaching thing? Partly, I think the
- 9:52Speaker 4: guys aren't gelling together. I think they just haven't found
- 9:55Speaker 4: a rhythm the last two games. They've lost the two
- 9:59Speaker 4: games by a total of three points combined. So it's
- 10:03Speaker 4: not like they're getting blown out there. There have been
- 10:07Speaker 4: some blowouts. Don't get me wrong. Ah Giannis isn't one
- 10:12Speaker 4: hundred percent either. He he he stayed out of a
- 10:16Speaker 4: game or two because he's having some soreness.
- 10:19Speaker 6: Do you see that? Yes? Do you see it?
- 10:22Speaker 4: Very often? Probably not. Are they the Celtics, No, you
- 10:27Speaker 4: know that, they just don't. They're not built that way.
- 10:29Speaker 4: They don't have the depth either. But is it Doc Rivers?
- 10:35Speaker 4: It partly could be. We've all said that, you know,
- 10:37Speaker 4: when they let Adrian Griffin go, Should they have let
- 10:40Speaker 4: him go? Should they have let Mike Budenholzer go?
- 10:43Speaker 6: No?
- 10:44Speaker 4: But they did, and so they've got to live with
- 10:47Speaker 4: the mistakes that they've made. And the only thing I
- 10:52Speaker 4: would put out there is, if we think it's time
- 10:57Speaker 4: for a coaching change, what coach out there would do better?
- 11:02Speaker 6: Do we think would do better?
- 11:05Speaker 1: That's much I don't have an answer. All right, So
- 11:08Speaker 1: you're not that far away, You're about an hour away
- 11:10Speaker 1: out in the Midwest, So what are your what's your
- 11:13Speaker 1: take on the downfall of the Milwaukee Bucks.
- 11:18Speaker 3: I don't think it's anything to be worried about. I mean,
- 11:22Speaker 3: if you look at their schedule, they lost to Cleveland,
- 11:24Speaker 3: who's eight no, twice, so take those away. You're one
- 11:28Speaker 3: and four. They got one in a three game road trip,
- 11:33Speaker 3: three games and four nights. They lost all three. Take
- 11:37Speaker 3: that away. You're one and one. The other loss was
- 11:40Speaker 3: to the Bulls. That's not a very good loss. But
- 11:44Speaker 3: they're one and six. They went out Middleton, Giannis isn't
- 11:48Speaker 3: fully healthy. It's the NBA. There's eighty two games. We're
- 11:53Speaker 3: not going to worry it.
- 11:53Speaker 1: One and six.
- 11:54Speaker 3: The Bucks are a good team. Are they gonna win
- 11:56Speaker 3: the championship? No, but they'll They'll be the playoffs. If
- 12:00Speaker 3: they have plenty of talent, they'll be fine. You know,
- 12:03Speaker 3: you just got to take it what it is. It's
- 12:04Speaker 3: just a bad start to the season. They have a
- 12:07Speaker 3: good coach. I don't think he should be the coach,
- 12:09Speaker 3: but he got hired. But he's there now. He'll be fine.
- 12:13Speaker 3: Giannis will be good, they got Lilert. Middleton will eventually
- 12:16Speaker 3: come back. They'll be in the playoffs. I wouldn't even
- 12:19Speaker 3: worry about this. This is just something for us to
- 12:21Speaker 3: talk about this time, at this time of the year
- 12:23Speaker 3: with the NBA, because it's November. There's not much really
- 12:26Speaker 3: to talk about in the NBA.
- 12:28Speaker 1: Well, I wait till you stay at later in the show,
- 12:31Speaker 1: there might be, but maybe this time probably is a
- 12:34Speaker 1: little bit early to talk about the only reason I
- 12:36Speaker 1: brought it up, don't just as you guys know, as
- 12:38Speaker 1: I'm only comparing actually the coaching firing of Adrian Griffin
- 12:43Speaker 1: versus Doc Rivers, because I think Adriane Griffin got a
- 12:47Speaker 1: wrong rod deal here. He really did. He should have
- 12:50Speaker 1: had more than forty three games the coaches team. That's
- 12:52Speaker 1: my opinion. So but you're right, Yeah, we know the NBA.
- 12:56Speaker 1: If it were up to me, the NBA wouldn't start
- 12:58Speaker 1: probably until Christmas night. But that's another day for another time.
- 13:03Speaker 1: But that's when they should really start it, all right.
- 13:05Speaker 1: I'll turn over to Ikorn and see what he's got
- 13:07Speaker 1: left to say about this.
- 13:10Speaker 2: Well, I would have never guessed that Milwaukee had a
- 13:12Speaker 2: worse record than our Detroit Pistons, who have come on
- 13:18Speaker 2: in the last few games and are up to three wins.
- 13:20Speaker 1: Now.
- 13:22Speaker 2: Yeah, with Middleton out, obviously, that's a big big blow
- 13:25Speaker 2: for the scoring for the Buck scoring obviously, So I
- 13:30Speaker 2: lean towards JB's opinion. Really, it's a long season. Yeah,
- 13:35Speaker 2: it doesn't look pretty. It's not pretty when you're one
- 13:37Speaker 2: and six. They have had some tough opponents, like you
- 13:41Speaker 2: mentioned Cleveland a couple of times, Boston, But I think
- 13:45Speaker 2: that Gianna seems to be playing very very well, and
- 13:48Speaker 2: of course Lollard is playing very well. Obviously their shooting
- 13:52Speaker 2: and the rebounding is lacking right now. Also accuracy, because
- 13:56Speaker 2: you know Middleton's not there. Chris is good, real good.
- 14:00Speaker 2: You have to you know, this whole thing with Doc
- 14:03Speaker 2: Rivers is fishy. I didn't like it either when it first,
- 14:06Speaker 2: when they first hired him, I really didn't. I mean,
- 14:08Speaker 2: the guys bounced around from all different teams around the
- 14:11Speaker 2: NBA for so many years, and uh, but you got
- 14:15Speaker 2: them right now. I don't think they're going to change
- 14:17Speaker 2: coaches unless the bottom does completely fall out, which I
- 14:20Speaker 2: don't think it will. But there's still some a lot
- 14:23Speaker 2: of time, a lot of it's a long seasons, as
- 14:26Speaker 2: you mentioned, Joe, and I think that the Bucks still
- 14:29Speaker 2: have a down good team and a very good chance
- 14:32Speaker 2: to win the division.
- 14:34Speaker 1: Well, Blake loses requesting the station break, and guess what,
- 14:37Speaker 1: you know what, We're gonna give it to you. All right, Candy,
- 14:39Speaker 1: take a station break.

- 15:50Speaker 1: predators of Florida. Panthers did have an impressive trup out
- 15:54Speaker 1: to Finland and where they will beat the Dallas Tar's
- 15:58Speaker 1: at two games. Really good job there out there. But now,
- 16:02Speaker 1: Joshua Door, I know you do your best contribute to
- 16:05Speaker 1: chat room, and much of us appreciated. You're not being silent,
- 16:08Speaker 1: But the reality of the situation is, you know what,
- 16:11Speaker 1: tomorrow night, we're going to have a loaded hockey show.
- 16:14Speaker 1: But that said, you know what.
- 16:15Speaker 4: Joe Scott, there's a question here for you in the
- 16:18Speaker 4: chat Okay, why did you choose those colors for the
- 16:22Speaker 4: book cover?
- 16:24Speaker 1: I had a book coach actually choose them for me,
- 16:26Speaker 1: is what I did. I good question. So I had
- 16:31Speaker 1: this first book done by a book coach who did
- 16:34Speaker 1: the editing. You know, when you self publish a lot
- 16:37Speaker 1: of times you learn a lot. The next book will
- 16:39Speaker 1: be a lot different situation. I don't know what we're
- 16:42Speaker 1: going to do with the front cover, but I'm already
- 16:44Speaker 1: starting to go ahead and line up some ideas. And
- 16:47Speaker 1: you know what, while I'm on that subject, Candy, I
- 16:50Speaker 1: want to talk about a guest that I want ahead. Well,
- 16:52Speaker 1: they do look like Miami hurricane color. Good observation blows
- 16:56Speaker 1: it really is. So I want to go ahead, Kady
- 16:58Speaker 1: put that one cover up that I had opportunity this
- 17:00Speaker 1: week to talk to Kenny Albert, and Kenny Albert is
- 17:03Speaker 1: one of the classiest people I've ever seen. The mic
- 17:06Speaker 1: for All Seasons my three decades announcing the NFL, NHL, NBA,
- 17:11Speaker 1: MLB and the Olympics. You can find that book, okay,
- 17:17Speaker 1: google it up. It's a great book. And more importantly,
- 17:21Speaker 1: Kenny and I got to know each other at the
- 17:23Speaker 1: NHL All Star Game in Tampa and then we were
- 17:25Speaker 1: able to go ahead and reconnect over the summer. He's
- 17:29Speaker 1: a really super nice guy. But the idea is I'm
- 17:31Speaker 1: going to spend more time with things slow down a
- 17:33Speaker 1: little bit. But I can tell you right now he
- 17:37Speaker 1: learned from his dad, mar who's an incredible individual, and
- 17:40Speaker 1: you never know, there might be some great ideas that
- 17:43Speaker 1: I'll have to incorporate and lessons from the microphone part two,
- 17:46Speaker 1: thank bev. So I just wanted to get put that
- 17:48Speaker 1: in there while I had the opportunity to do it.
- 17:51Speaker 1: So all right with that said, Okay, the NBA, Joe,
- 17:56Speaker 1: maybe you're just lucky enough to catch a couple of
- 17:58Speaker 1: topics that will get you interested that because if this
- 18:01Speaker 1: one doesn't get you at least somewhat fired him literally
- 18:05Speaker 1: motion Okay, Joe, it's JB Okay, Joshua Door Okay, but
- 18:12Speaker 1: I have I can call him by a different name
- 18:15Speaker 1: for you, It's JB Okay. Just remember that joelanb didn't
- 18:19Speaker 1: need a little management this time, as the NBA suspended
- 18:22Speaker 1: in three games for shoving a columnist media member in
- 18:26Speaker 1: the locker room Saturday night. So you know what, JB,
- 18:29Speaker 1: what would happened if Joel Embiid shoved you and push
- 18:32Speaker 1: your roll? What would you do to this guy?
- 18:35Speaker 3: So I want to do anything because getting it to
- 18:37Speaker 3: the locker rooms hard enough, and I know that the
- 18:39Speaker 3: NBA would take care of it, and hopefully I'd fall
- 18:42Speaker 3: and hit my elbow, my knee or something, because then
- 18:45Speaker 3: I'd be a multi millionaire. But Joel Embiid, this has
- 18:49Speaker 3: got to be one of the dumbest things of the
- 18:51Speaker 3: world to do. You're a professional athlete, you know, I
- 18:55Speaker 3: get that the story the guy said something about his brother.
- 19:02Speaker 3: I read this last week late last week. I didn't
- 19:05Speaker 3: think it was anything that offensive. But you know, part
- 19:08Speaker 3: of being a professional athlete is dealing with the media. Now,
- 19:12Speaker 3: the teams with the union, and you know from college
- 19:19Speaker 3: they have this where they've learned to deal with the media.
- 19:23Speaker 3: You have to, as a professional that earns money doing this,
- 19:28Speaker 3: control yourself. Not everything's gonna be positive. Not everything's gonna
- 19:32Speaker 3: be flowers and rainbows and unicorns. People are gonna come
- 19:37Speaker 3: at you. Everyone has their own agenda. You know, when
- 19:39Speaker 3: I'm writing a story, I want what's best for my website.
- 19:42Speaker 3: I may not be positive. If I'm writing about the
- 19:44Speaker 3: Yikes and it has to do a garrick hole, I
- 19:47Speaker 3: guarantee you it'll be negative. I'll never have anything positive
- 19:49Speaker 3: to say about the guy until I meet him, and
- 19:51Speaker 3: maybe he wouldn't be over, but before that it will
- 19:54Speaker 3: definitely be negative. It's just the way it's gonna be.
- 19:57Speaker 3: And I don't think he's gonna come a push me
- 19:59Speaker 3: because he's a professional. Joel embiid, you gotta do better.
- 20:03Speaker 3: That's just ridiculous and there's no place for that in sports.
- 20:08Speaker 1: Came respond to a couple of questions in chat room.
- 20:10Speaker 1: Joshua asked me what if Joel shoved me? I would
- 20:13Speaker 1: take the same route that jav says. I will he
- 20:16Speaker 1: pushes me harder? Know so I can sue him. Oh,
- 20:19Speaker 1: I'd love to be able to take a piece of
- 20:20Speaker 1: his Let me come on Joshua, you know salt and battery.
- 20:24Speaker 1: You ever heard of it? You know it cost you
- 20:26Speaker 1: a lot of different things. You know, people see that
- 20:28Speaker 1: he shoved me. I got witnesses, Joshua, you know so, yeah,
- 20:32Speaker 1: I would go ahead. Why would I knock his you
- 20:34Speaker 1: know what out number one? He's way taller than I am. Anyways,
- 20:38Speaker 1: I couldn't even reach the guy and answer. I mean,
- 20:42Speaker 1: you need a ladder that you get a shot rate
- 20:44Speaker 1: at his jaw. I got to tell you, guys a
- 20:46Speaker 1: funny story though, many years ago, when I was covering
- 20:49Speaker 1: the NBA, I sat next to Rick Rick Smiths of
- 20:53Speaker 1: the Indiana Pacers, and I'll never forget rich, one of
- 20:56Speaker 1: the nicest guys you'll ever meet in the Indiana Panswers.
- 20:58Speaker 1: I had to take my recorder and my arm was
- 21:01Speaker 1: so stretched out to get him to talk into the
- 21:03Speaker 1: tape recorder. It dially seven seven or so. So you
- 21:07Speaker 1: need a ladder to talk to some of these guys.
- 21:09Speaker 1: But to answer your question, all when Bock is you
- 21:11Speaker 1: know what out? But I would assume and it would
- 21:14Speaker 1: be bad movement. Pensman, A great question, you know what,
- 21:17Speaker 1: James Franklin and me is an overrated coach. He really is.
- 21:20Speaker 1: I don't care what anybody says, but you know, we'll
- 21:24Speaker 1: see how long Penntake keeps them around. I've always thought
- 21:27Speaker 1: of they pretenders are contenders. They haven't been a contender
- 21:29Speaker 1: since they've been into Big Ten. Dating back to Joe Paterno,
- 21:32Speaker 1: James Franklin is overrated when he starts playing teams, that's
- 21:35Speaker 1: when he started to lose. All right, we'll continue to
- 21:38Speaker 1: question to George. Okay, Joel embiid, you and I have
- 21:41Speaker 1: both been in the locker room. How do you handle
- 21:43Speaker 1: this situation about shoving a columnist or medium ever or whatever.
- 21:48Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a it's a very difficult situation. You just
- 21:53Speaker 2: really can't respond physically. I would never do that at all.
- 21:57Speaker 2: We had our own ups and downs, as we know,
- 22:00Speaker 2: with the bad boys and getting interviews in the epistons
- 22:03Speaker 2: locker room, but nothing like this before. Uh, you know,
- 22:07Speaker 2: and you know Dennis Rodman, Bill Lambert. I mean that
- 22:09Speaker 2: that was a there was an interesting combination of players
- 22:14Speaker 2: that were that were on that team, but Joe Dumars
- 22:18Speaker 2: on that team also, and Joe of course is the
- 22:20Speaker 2: NBA's executive VP of Basketball Operations, And you know, I
- 22:26Speaker 2: think he picked his words wisely, and I'm sure the
- 22:30Speaker 2: NBA obviously reviewed. He said mutual respect is paramount to
- 22:35Speaker 2: the relationship between players and the media in the NBA,
- 22:39Speaker 2: and that is so true. The beat writers that are
- 22:42Speaker 2: there game after game, or even a columnist that's there
- 22:45Speaker 2: once a week, everybody's got to have a mutual respect.
- 22:51Speaker 2: Their job's not easy. And by that I mean the writers.
- 22:54Speaker 2: They they're they're constantly trying to come up with the
- 22:56Speaker 2: new angle. They're trying to come up with reasons why
- 23:01Speaker 2: obviously somebody is not playing well or or somebody is
- 23:04Speaker 2: dogging it or maintenance issues or whatever the heck's going
- 23:08Speaker 2: on in some of these players situations. But I tell
- 23:12Speaker 2: you what I mean, he deserved it. From what I hear,
- 23:15Speaker 2: he deserved it. I'm not saying that the columnist is
- 23:18Speaker 2: obviously free of anything. No, you know, especially when you
- 23:21Speaker 2: start talking about personal things, brother, family, whatever, you got
- 23:24Speaker 2: to stay clear of that stuff. So all I'm saying
- 23:27Speaker 2: is that he deserved a suspension. But no, I would
- 23:31Speaker 2: back away from anything and try to throw any kind
- 23:34Speaker 2: of bad stuff or throw throw a punch or anything
- 23:37Speaker 2: like that. That's not me.
- 23:40Speaker 1: Hey, JV Troit Garry says, good to see JV likes
- 23:43Speaker 1: to have you back, Troy. Good stuff. And I did
- 23:46Speaker 1: want to put a story out there now that you
- 23:48Speaker 1: brought up. You know, this situation about rob and Lambert.
- 23:56Speaker 1: I never got along with Bill Lambert again, nobody ever did.
- 23:58Speaker 1: That's why I never got a head coaching out in
- 24:00Speaker 1: the first place. But I had a situation with Lambier
- 24:03Speaker 1: wasn't physical. I was getting on my nerves and being
- 24:06Speaker 1: a little bit getting on my nerves, to say the least.
- 24:09Speaker 1: And I said to Bill Lambert, get this, okay, just
- 24:13Speaker 1: because you can afford your current payment doesn't mean I
- 24:16Speaker 1: can afford mine. You got it. So Dennis Rodman and
- 24:20Speaker 1: I had a good working relationship. We really did. And
- 24:23Speaker 1: Dennis said, I'll take care of get out of here.
- 24:27Speaker 1: You know, I'm talking to the guy. Leave it alone, okay.
- 24:30Speaker 2: And you know that.
- 24:31Speaker 1: You know, Dennis Brownan hasn't always been crazy. There was
- 24:34Speaker 1: a time that he was a pretty down to earth
- 24:37Speaker 1: family man. You know, later on, I can't worry about it,
- 24:39Speaker 1: but my memories of Dennis Robin are nothing more than
- 24:42Speaker 1: just positive as what they are. In fact, now that
- 24:45Speaker 1: I have the opportunity to talk about this. Since I'm
- 24:48Speaker 1: on Dennis Rodman, I'll never forget the time when we're
- 24:51Speaker 1: in a West Bluefield bowling alley and he's looking at
- 24:54Speaker 1: my bowling style like, man, that's the weirdest form I've
- 24:58Speaker 1: ever seen. So well, with all due respect, he's really
- 25:03Speaker 1: not totally wrong. I did, once upon a time win
- 25:06Speaker 1: a trophy for a most unusual form, So Dennis wasn't
- 25:09Speaker 1: that far off. Pay Let's say, well, you know, Dennis,
- 25:12Speaker 1: you know, because we're friends, you know, it's one of
- 25:13Speaker 1: those deals. He says to me, well, you know, your
- 25:16Speaker 1: free throw shooting isn't overly the greatest either, so so,
- 25:22Speaker 1: but he smiled. He was really really nice about it.
- 25:25Speaker 1: So he beat me the first game. He said, Dennis,
- 25:27Speaker 1: you know what, let's just do this. Okay, what or
- 25:31Speaker 1: take doll If I win the next game, you gotta
- 25:33Speaker 1: pay pay for both games. And if I do, I
- 25:36Speaker 1: have to pay for both games. He got a bunch
- 25:38Speaker 1: of splits in that situation, okay, and I ended up
- 25:42Speaker 1: beating him the second game with my most unusual form.
- 25:45Speaker 1: Bottom of ve bottom line is my as I mentioned
- 25:49Speaker 1: in my book, Lessons from the Microphone, Okay, relationships people,
- 25:54Speaker 1: that's what this is all about. Dennis and I had
- 25:56Speaker 1: a good rooking relationship. We talked earlier in the show
- 25:59Speaker 1: about his Davi Estreppo and if you can find friends
- 26:02Speaker 1: in certain places, that makes life a lot easier. Okay,
- 26:06Speaker 1: So what that said will turn over to Candy. What
- 26:08Speaker 1: are your thoughts about Joel Embiid.
- 26:11Speaker 4: Embiid was upset with Philadelphia Inquirers Marcus Hayes for a
- 26:15Speaker 4: story that questioned the stars professionalism and referenced his son
- 26:21Speaker 4: and late brother, who died in a car accident. Since
- 26:24Speaker 4: initially publishing the article, the Inquirer has removed the paragraph
- 26:30Speaker 4: mentioning Embiid's son and brother. Embiid spotted Hayes in the
- 26:35Speaker 4: locker room after Saturday's loss and had a heated exchange
- 26:39Speaker 4: with the columnist. The former MVP told Hayes he could
- 26:43Speaker 4: write about him as a basketball player, but never mention
- 26:47Speaker 4: his family in the article. The next time you bring
- 26:50Speaker 4: up my dead brother and my son again, you are
- 26:53Speaker 4: going to see what I'm going to do to you,
- 26:55Speaker 4: and I'm going to have to blank blank blank live
- 26:59Speaker 4: with the consequences. Well, now he's living with the consequences
- 27:02Speaker 4: of his actions. It's never okay to get physical with
- 27:05Speaker 4: somebody like that over something somebody rights. But in the
- 27:10Speaker 4: same point, obviously the Inquirer thought what they did wasn't
- 27:15Speaker 4: right by publishing it, because they've removed it as well.
- 27:19Speaker 4: So two wrongs don't make a right. But and obviously
- 27:23Speaker 4: the Inquirer has gotten all kinds of publicity. Now look
- 27:27Speaker 4: at that we're talking about it. Everybody's been talking about it.
- 27:31Speaker 4: Embead's even been, you know, taking it to the next level.
- 27:36Speaker 4: It's sad that it's gotten to this point that we
- 27:41Speaker 4: have to talk about somebody's dead brother.
- 27:43Speaker 6: I'm sorry.
- 27:44Speaker 4: This is a basketball star. He plays a game, a
- 27:48Speaker 4: basketball game. What happened to his son or his brother
- 27:53Speaker 4: has nothing to do with the game that you were
- 27:56Speaker 4: reporting on. So was the report order wrong?
- 28:01Speaker 6: Yes?
- 28:01Speaker 4: But are they trying to sell of course, everybody's trying
- 28:04Speaker 4: to sell their a media outlet, trying to make money
- 28:07Speaker 4: and sell you know, papers or get clicks on a website.
- 28:13Speaker 4: Was he wrong, yes, but in b he was definitely wrong.
- 28:17Speaker 4: You cannot take it to the next level.
- 28:20Speaker 1: And much well, the Philadelphia media has been known to
- 28:25Speaker 1: cross the line a few times. Let's stay back in
- 28:27Speaker 1: George and I and maybe you know, JB that Steve
- 28:30Speaker 1: Carlton wouldn't talk to the media after they went out
- 28:33Speaker 1: there and posted some stuff that he'd really disagreed with.
- 28:36Speaker 1: So he did. And I remember covering the Phillies durning
- 28:39Speaker 1: string training over at the old Jack Russell Stadium in
- 28:42Speaker 1: the Philadelphia Phillies. They were down on Von Hayes and
- 28:46Speaker 1: I ended up listening to that. I actually decided to
- 28:48Speaker 1: do a story on von Hayes after that whole situation.
- 28:51Speaker 1: He agreed to do it. So, you know, they've been
- 28:53Speaker 1: known to get ruffle some feathers out in Philadelphia. But yeah,
- 28:57Speaker 1: there's no place to go out there and talk about
- 28:59Speaker 1: anything other than basketball, you know. So I'm not totally
- 29:04Speaker 1: excusing Philadelphia media for what they're doing, but I don't
- 29:08Speaker 1: believe that you need to go to the extreme by
- 29:09Speaker 1: pushing a medium never around because without us, we're not
- 29:13Speaker 1: promoting what you do for a living. All right, let's
- 29:16Speaker 1: move on to the National Football League. The only NFL
- 29:19Speaker 1: topic we're gonna do unless somebody decides to do it
- 29:21Speaker 1: through partying shots. Okay, the NFL points leader. Are there
- 29:24Speaker 1: any surprises, I'll give you the teams. Baltimore is number
- 29:28Speaker 1: one with two hundred and eighty three, Washington two sixty three,
- 29:32Speaker 1: Buffalo two sixty, Tampa Bay two fifty nine in Alliance
- 29:36Speaker 1: two fifty eight. We'll start off with you, Candy, any
- 29:38Speaker 1: surprises with this list.
- 29:41Speaker 4: I think all of us are a little surprised that
- 29:43Speaker 4: the commanders are doing as well as they are this year.
- 29:45Speaker 4: I don't think anybody predicted them to do that. Well.
- 29:49Speaker 4: I'm kind of surprised Tampa Bay's up there as well.
- 29:53Speaker 4: But you know you didn't hear I don't. I don't
- 29:57Speaker 4: think I heard Kansas City on there. Wait, wait, really,
- 30:03Speaker 4: Detroit's having a really good year obviously, Jared Goff is
- 30:08Speaker 4: having the season of his career, I mean, the best
- 30:11Speaker 4: season yet. And Baltimore is I mean they can They've
- 30:16Speaker 4: got such a massive running game.
- 30:18Speaker 1: That Katie, I answer you a simple question. We don't
- 30:22Speaker 1: need every fact in this situation. I love the facts
- 30:26Speaker 1: that you provide. You are absolutely phenomenal. You are. I've
- 30:29Speaker 1: never seen a crack statistician as good as you. But
- 30:34Speaker 1: and he surprises you said, Washington? Is that correct?
- 30:38Speaker 6: Yes?
- 30:39Speaker 3: Okay, Joe, definitely Washington. You know when Jada Daniels got
- 30:44Speaker 3: drafted second, I remember saying, oh crap, we have to
- 30:48Speaker 3: face him twice a year many what is it all?
- 30:50Speaker 3: Have a Giants fan. I knew that was going to
- 30:52Speaker 3: be a problem. I knew he had talent. I didn't
- 30:54Speaker 3: think he'd be this good this quickly, especially with the
- 30:57Speaker 3: talent around him. I don't think it's as good as
- 30:59Speaker 3: other teams, and he's really enhancing what he has. Baker
- 31:03Speaker 3: Mayfield as well in tamp I think they're doing a
- 31:05Speaker 3: great job. And obviously the fact that Kids of City
- 31:09Speaker 3: is nowhere in the top five, you know, with Mahomes
- 31:13Speaker 3: as good as he is. Kelsey stepping up now that
- 31:16Speaker 3: there's all the injuries, but prior to that, Kelsey had
- 31:20Speaker 3: not been there. I mean he was on Taylor Swift's
- 31:23Speaker 3: tour Hang It Out the first five weeks or so.
- 31:26Speaker 3: So I mean, I think those are the three that
- 31:28Speaker 3: hit me right off the top of my head.
- 31:31Speaker 2: George, Yeah, I mean that, you know, no question about it.
- 31:36Speaker 2: With Washington, I mean, they're just having a phenomenal year
- 31:39Speaker 2: so far, but we'll see how that goes. And then
- 31:42Speaker 2: I also got to agree, I mean the two the
- 31:44Speaker 2: two that are missing in my mind obviously Kansas City
- 31:47Speaker 2: in San Francisco. I mean, Rockbirdy is not having a
- 31:51Speaker 2: sensational year so far. The team is doing far less
- 31:54Speaker 2: than they probably ever were expected to do. So the
- 31:57Speaker 2: fact that the forty nine ers are not in any
- 32:00Speaker 2: like that does surprise me, because obviously they went to
- 32:04Speaker 2: the Super Bowl last year and a lot of people
- 32:06Speaker 2: had them penciled in this year. But it's a long season.
- 32:09Speaker 2: I understand we're only in week eight or nine or whatever,
- 32:12Speaker 2: but no, I agree. I think Washington is a big
- 32:15Speaker 2: surprise for me, and then of course Kansas City not
- 32:19Speaker 2: being there with Mahomes. But they're still winning. They're just
- 32:21Speaker 2: not putting as many points on the board like they
- 32:23Speaker 2: used to.
- 32:25Speaker 1: Well, let me say one thing. You know why Buffalo
- 32:27Speaker 1: is at two sixty, don't you think so a sixty
- 32:29Speaker 1: one yard field goal? My talents would be the Dolphins,
- 32:33Speaker 1: So I mean sixty one yards to beat the Dolphins.
- 32:36Speaker 1: It seems like the Dolphins and the Bills they'll disressect
- 32:40Speaker 1: to Miami. But the Dolphins ended up. It's not that
- 32:44Speaker 1: they found a way to lose, but it was a
- 32:45Speaker 1: tough break for them to lose. The Bills because there's
- 32:47Speaker 1: sixty one yard field goal now there's no question that
- 32:50Speaker 1: Washington is definitely a surprise. But let's face it, they
- 32:54Speaker 1: found their quarterback of the future, and it looks like
- 32:56Speaker 1: that quarterback is outperforming that guy in Chicago's so far,
- 33:00Speaker 1: Caleb Williams. I like Daniels again. William's situation is interesting
- 33:06Speaker 1: to me because we don't even know who's what coach
- 33:08Speaker 1: is gonna have next year. And I know there's always
- 33:10Speaker 1: been talking about Ben Johnson would have left Detroit to
- 33:13Speaker 1: go to Chicago last year, but you never know he
- 33:17Speaker 1: might get it next year. But Tampa Bay Baker mayfields
- 33:22Speaker 1: out there and reinvented himself and found himself home where
- 33:25Speaker 1: he's appreciated there. And the Lion don't worry. They'll move
- 33:28Speaker 1: up that list if they keep putting twenty thirty forty
- 33:30Speaker 1: points in the game these last few weeks of Obviously
- 33:33Speaker 1: they haven't putt as many, but when they go to
- 33:35Speaker 1: Houston this weekend, they can be moving up that list
- 33:39Speaker 1: pretty quickly. Now, who knows, they might even surpass Baltimore
- 33:43Speaker 1: or be number two on the list when it comes out.
- 33:45Speaker 1: Next final topic of the night before we go to
- 33:48Speaker 1: parking partying shots and yes, we're both going back to
- 33:51Speaker 1: the NBA. Charles Barkley is concerned. I love putting Charles
- 33:55Speaker 1: Barkley's comments. After all, if you go ahead buy my
- 33:58Speaker 1: book Less than Some of the Microphone to the to
- 34:00Speaker 1: the during Wisdom of Visionary Leaders. I have a picture
- 34:03Speaker 1: west Sir Charles in there, available on Amazon and Kiddle,
- 34:08Speaker 1: so there you go. BEEDMN. Yes, I have a picture
- 34:11Speaker 1: of Sir Charles, and I'm enjoying his time at TAT
- 34:13Speaker 1: What a super nice guy. But Charles Markley is concerned
- 34:16Speaker 1: with players making too much money and not playing. We
- 34:19Speaker 1: have guys making eighty ninety one hundred million not playing
- 34:23Speaker 1: back to back games. Seriously, really, okay, Joe.
- 34:28Speaker 3: I mean it's what we've been saying for the last
- 34:33Speaker 3: I don't almost decade at this point. Load management. It's
- 34:36Speaker 3: a load of crap, That's what it is. You know,
- 34:39Speaker 3: these guys play at most forty eight minutes four times
- 34:45Speaker 3: per week. That's less than four hours, and that's at max.
- 34:49Speaker 3: Usually it's two to three times per week, and they
- 34:53Speaker 3: sit out games. And the season is eighty two games.
- 34:56Speaker 3: And if you make the playoffs, depending if you're lebroad,
- 35:00Speaker 3: you're gonna probably play another twenty three twenty four games.
- 35:03Speaker 3: Otherwise everybody else may play in an additional ten games
- 35:07Speaker 3: tops of the playoffs, you know, on average. So this
- 35:12Speaker 3: sitting out, it's a joke.
- 35:14Speaker 2: You know.
- 35:15Speaker 3: I want to call, you know, any job in the
- 35:19Speaker 3: world to say, listen, I worked yesterday, so I'm gonna
- 35:21Speaker 3: take today off, but I'll be back in two days
- 35:23Speaker 3: when it's the next day to work, and then I'll
- 35:25Speaker 3: go to take that next day off, and then you know,
- 35:27Speaker 3: I'll work three days and I'll take a couple off
- 35:29Speaker 3: because it's just too much. Yet the world doesn't work
- 35:32Speaker 3: that way, and they're not giving me sixty million to
- 35:35Speaker 3: do what I do, So come on. You know, Charles
- 35:38Speaker 3: is one hundred percent right.
- 35:41Speaker 1: It'll be a highly coveted and it'll be highly covetive
- 35:45Speaker 1: if you ever decigns to leave TNT for sure, But
- 35:47Speaker 1: I'm not sure what's gonna happen, but I'll tell you
- 35:49Speaker 1: my experience with Charle Barkley is great. You know what,
- 35:53Speaker 1: I want to put this comment with Joshua Door up
- 35:56Speaker 1: at the bottom. This is an excellent comment. Okay, NHL
- 35:59Speaker 1: players play way more physical and don't take a day off,
- 36:02Speaker 1: you know, Joshua, you know that comments called called the bullseye. Okay,
- 36:06Speaker 1: no question about a hockey player. Certainly play more physical,
- 36:08Speaker 1: don't take time off, and yet they're probably the only
- 36:11Speaker 1: thing you're missing out of that Joshua has affected their
- 36:14Speaker 1: way underpaid compared to the NBA players. But great one, Joshua,
- 36:17Speaker 1: that's what we need from you, Okay. And he wants
- 36:20Speaker 1: to call the NBA a bunch of sissies, you know what,
- 36:21Speaker 1: can't he put that one up? I take that, you know,
- 36:25Speaker 1: I don't know if I call it that, But I'm
- 36:26Speaker 1: not disagreeing with what he put up there at all,
- 36:28Speaker 1: all right, I'm true.
- 36:29Speaker 2: Or to George Well, it's hard to disagree with our
- 36:34Speaker 2: friend Charles Barkley. I mean, he says it like it is.
- 36:37Speaker 2: I mean really, and I know he didn't make nearly
- 36:40Speaker 2: that kind of money obviously playing because he was in
- 36:42Speaker 2: a different era. But think for a second of the fans, Okay,
- 36:46Speaker 2: Detroit fans get one opportunity, one chance to see Lebron
- 36:50Speaker 2: James come into this little seasons arena. And this is
- 36:53Speaker 2: what I'm getting at is it's a slap in the face,
- 36:56Speaker 2: especially for the fans season ticket holders. They look forward
- 37:00Speaker 2: to seeing these guys some of them, like I said,
- 37:02Speaker 2: only make one trip in and then you say, oh,
- 37:04Speaker 2: well it's a maintenance day for me. I'm not going
- 37:07Speaker 2: to play against the Pistons. Oh really, Okay, you know
- 37:11Speaker 2: there's no recourse for the fans because you're only coming
- 37:13Speaker 2: in once a year, and I understand they have to
- 37:16Speaker 2: select the games. But still, I agree, it's a bunch
- 37:19Speaker 2: of garbage. It really is. You know, the fans are
- 37:22Speaker 2: paying your salary, fella, and so are the TV networks
- 37:25Speaker 2: and many other sponsors, et cetera. But these players that
- 37:28Speaker 2: want to have a time off, and like you said, JB,
- 37:31Speaker 2: I mean you do the math, and this is ridiculous.
- 37:35Speaker 2: You know, the the amount of time they play. Oh yeah,
- 37:37Speaker 2: I know they practice every day, but come on, we
- 37:39Speaker 2: know practices and nose to the grindstone real difficult for
- 37:44Speaker 2: NBA players. I mean, you're doing sets and the different
- 37:47Speaker 2: things you're trying out obviously with the coaching staff, but
- 37:50Speaker 2: you're not playing aggressive like you are in a game.
- 37:53Speaker 2: I just think that he's spot on with this, Barkley
- 37:57Speaker 2: spot on, and I give him credit for saying it,
- 37:59Speaker 2: but this is crazy. We've seen it already with too
- 38:02Speaker 2: many stars sitting out too many games, Scott.
- 38:05Speaker 1: All right, Candy, you wants to put blows the latest
- 38:07Speaker 1: comment out there? Actually think it's okay, Scott. You got
- 38:10Speaker 1: to agree. We say a lot of crazy stuff in
- 38:12Speaker 1: the chat room. That's putting it Miley. But we do
- 38:14Speaker 1: have some excellent comments here and there. That's true. The
- 38:17Speaker 1: excellent ones get posted up here. Some of the other ones.
- 38:20Speaker 1: You know, people are watching this via a video so
- 38:23Speaker 1: they can go out there and read into it themselves.
- 38:26Speaker 1: All right, one opportunity, one time to shine, George is
- 38:29Speaker 1: going M and MS go George. One shot of a lifetime.
- 38:36Speaker 1: That was pretty good. Some of them weren't pretty good.
- 38:37Speaker 1: I try putting them up. Don't get me wrong. Blowing
- 38:41Speaker 1: so often a few more to stand out than others are. Candy,
- 38:44Speaker 1: take a shot at look. Do you agree or disagree
- 38:48Speaker 1: with Sir.
- 38:48Speaker 4: Charles Mode management should be thrown out the window. MLB players,
- 38:57Speaker 4: there are some players that played one hundred sixty two
- 39:01Speaker 4: games this past season, and you're talking there's only how
- 39:05Speaker 4: many games in the NBA? Come on, really, we can't
- 39:08Speaker 4: play You're gonna tell me you don't practice every single
- 39:13Speaker 4: day in between. You're not talking about playing a game
- 39:17Speaker 4: that you play for four hours, you're playing it. I
- 39:21Speaker 4: mean there's tennis matches that you have when you're in
- 39:24Speaker 4: Wimbledon and those and you're playing more often and you're
- 39:27Speaker 4: playing five hours at a time, Like, come on, really,
- 39:32Speaker 4: you practice that long, you should be able to play
- 39:34Speaker 4: that long. If you can't play every day, if you're injured,
- 39:37Speaker 4: I get it, that's something else. But you are getting
- 39:41Speaker 4: paid a lot of money to play a game a game,
- 39:46Speaker 4: And like JB said, I can't say, you know what,
- 39:50Speaker 4: I had too rough of a day yesterday.
- 39:52Speaker 6: I'm not gonna go in tomorrow, you know.
- 39:55Speaker 4: Uh I had. I had customers that cussed me out,
- 40:00Speaker 4: yelled at me, and oh hm hm, I need to
- 40:04Speaker 4: take a mental day.
- 40:05Speaker 6: I'm just gonna take the day off. No, it doesn't
- 40:07Speaker 6: work that way.
- 40:08Speaker 4: I can't just say that, yes I get sick days,
- 40:10Speaker 4: Yes we all do.
- 40:11Speaker 6: But that's a little different.
- 40:15Speaker 4: These NBA players that do this load management, they get
- 40:19Speaker 4: my goat because, like George said, the ticket that you
- 40:24Speaker 4: purchase to go to a game is not cheap. If
- 40:28Speaker 4: a family decides, you know what, I really want to
- 40:31Speaker 4: see this player, this team, I'm gonna pay for the family.
- 40:35Speaker 4: A family afford to go to a game, and then
- 40:38Speaker 4: they go and the game all the guy that they
- 40:41Speaker 4: went there to see is sitting out because he needs
- 40:43Speaker 4: a load management day.
- 40:45Speaker 6: I feel bad for them.
- 40:47Speaker 4: I feel I It just irks me because I mean,
- 40:52Speaker 4: I don't make I won't make eighty nine million in
- 40:56Speaker 4: my lifetime, much less in one season, and.
- 41:01Speaker 6: They can.
- 41:02Speaker 4: They feel entitled. And that's the problem with today's society
- 41:06Speaker 4: is people sometimes feel entitled. And here they're thinking they're
- 41:10Speaker 4: entitled to a day off because yeah, I played the
- 41:13Speaker 4: last night or two. I mean, they don't play seven days.
- 41:18Speaker 4: They don't have game seven days a week on their team.
- 41:21Speaker 4: They have days off and scheduled already. They already have
- 41:24Speaker 4: scheduled days off that are built into the schedule. Travel
- 41:29Speaker 4: days come on. That's what that That's what your downtime
- 41:31Speaker 4: is for. Not Oh, you're supposed to be playing this
- 41:34Speaker 4: game and I'm gonna take this game off because I
- 41:36Speaker 4: need load management.
- 41:37Speaker 6: No, that's that's a bunch of bs.
- 41:40Speaker 1: All right, Jabi, I'm gonna put an interesting comment up.
- 41:43Speaker 1: You don't have to ask the food answer question for
- 41:46Speaker 1: jam What does a big stand for? And we'll know, huh,
- 41:51Speaker 1: Brian and a roast. Oh, okay, there you go. All right?
- 41:55Speaker 1: Is it spelled b r I or b r y
- 41:59Speaker 1: b r I? Okay, there you go, Joshua. Yes, and
- 42:02Speaker 1: you didn't mind going out there and saying roast. At
- 42:05Speaker 1: least he didn't roast. You just cage and.
- 42:12Speaker 2: I'm George Brian icor and so congratulations we got yeah
- 42:21Speaker 2: Brian's under the house.
- 42:23Speaker 1: Yeah right, I think George, here's the spell with that?
- 42:25Speaker 1: I add too, right? Yep, interesting, you know, good stuff.
- 42:31Speaker 1: All right, So Joshua, you put one of those interesting
- 42:34Speaker 1: questions and in mind, and you got two answers out
- 42:36Speaker 1: of it. You should go out there and give your
- 42:39Speaker 1: your wife Rebecca a hug that you got something different
- 42:43Speaker 1: totally there. My middle name, Joshua is easy, okay, Brian
- 42:46Speaker 1: with a y. So that was easy. You got three
- 42:49Speaker 1: Brian's in the house. And and then Candy, well she's
- 42:51Speaker 1: the only one that doesn't have a B for the
- 42:53Speaker 1: middle name. But you know that's a different story. Knowing you,
- 42:56Speaker 1: you'll start asking that question. So Bensman has a ques
- 43:00Speaker 1: question for you, George, who do you think the lions?
- 43:03Speaker 1: Do you think the lions?
- 43:05Speaker 2: There's a chance obviously good? Do you know some people
- 43:08Speaker 2: think a better chance than not. So we'll see. It's
- 43:12Speaker 2: a long season, but they're off to a hell of
- 43:13Speaker 2: a start seven and one, so Detroit Scott his fingers
- 43:17Speaker 2: crossed right now that they make it?
- 43:19Speaker 1: All right, let's go to blow this one's interesting. Basketball
- 43:22Speaker 1: worse than baseball? Well, you know, I don't think it
- 43:25Speaker 1: takes a rocket scientist, but you know I'm gonna go
- 43:28Speaker 1: ahead and elaborate a little bit. We don't have a
- 43:31Speaker 1: designated basketball show, so I the only time I get
- 43:36Speaker 1: a basketball topic in there is usually under sports Exchange
- 43:39Speaker 1: in George JB. And Candy are troopers by answering some
- 43:43Speaker 1: of these questions. Baseball and football are the only designated
- 43:47Speaker 1: sports shows we have, in addition to hockey, which, by
- 43:50Speaker 1: the way, yes tomorrow at seven thirty pm Eastern times.
- 43:53Speaker 1: So what that said? Okay, we do have time for
- 43:58Speaker 1: parting shots, all right, Josh, Well you know we're you're
- 44:01Speaker 1: determined to get a hockey thing. And yeah, the Redlings
- 44:05Speaker 1: will make the playoffs.
- 44:06Speaker 2: Yes, yes, they they missed it by just the eyelash
- 44:10Speaker 2: last year. They will make it.
- 44:13Speaker 1: Okay, all right, we do have time for parting shots.
- 44:15Speaker 1: Candy lead off.
- 44:18Speaker 4: Congratulations Milwaukee Brewers Senior vice president and general manager Matt
- 44:22Speaker 4: Arnold was named MLB's Executive of the Year.
- 44:26Speaker 6: For twenty twenty four on Monday.
- 44:28Speaker 4: Arnold is the first Brewers executive to win the award,
- 44:31Speaker 4: which was established in twenty eighteen. The award was voted
- 44:34Speaker 4: on by executives from all thirty teams. Before the start
- 44:38Speaker 4: of the playoffs, the Brewers were written off in many
- 44:41Speaker 4: corners after Arnold traded Ace Corbyn Burns to the Baltimore Oreos.
- 44:46Speaker 4: The trade came a few months after longtime manager Craig
- 44:49Speaker 4: Council bolted to the division rival Cubs as a free agent.
- 44:53Speaker 4: But the team Arnold constructed define defied expectations, going ninety
- 44:58Speaker 4: three and sixty nine, one one win improvement on twenty
- 45:01Speaker 4: twenty threes to win the franchise's seventh Division title and
- 45:07Speaker 4: third NL Central Crown in four seasons. The team's success
- 45:11Speaker 4: in twenty twenty four was largely due to players Arnold
- 45:14Speaker 4: acquired last winter as well as during the season third
- 45:17Speaker 4: baseman Joey RTIs Jackson, curio Rice Hoskins, Brian Hudson, Jared Konig,
- 45:25Speaker 4: and all with our all star closer Devin Williams missing
- 45:31Speaker 4: four months with a back injury. So kudos to Arnold
- 45:34Speaker 4: for winning. He's forty five years old.
- 45:38Speaker 2: George, mine is going to be somebody very familiar to
- 45:43Speaker 2: us Scott, and that's George Blaha. George is in his
- 45:47Speaker 2: forty ninth season calling the Detroit Pistons play by play.
- 45:51Speaker 2: He's got over fifty years calling Michigan State Spartans football,
- 45:56Speaker 2: and George is hopefully going to one day be invited
- 46:01Speaker 2: to the Naysmith Basketball Memorial Hall of Fame to accept
- 46:05Speaker 2: the Kurk Goudi Award. We need to get George recognized
- 46:09Speaker 2: for that award, he said, a marvelous career. I know
- 46:12Speaker 2: he's not a national figure in the sense of doing CBS,
- 46:17Speaker 2: NBCESPN and all that at TNT, but George is a
- 46:21Speaker 2: great guy and has had a incredible career, and he
- 46:25Speaker 2: influenced and helped many many young broadcasters along the way
- 46:29Speaker 2: as well, I might add, So my two cents, I'm
- 46:32Speaker 2: gonna say, let's get George Blah into that Springfield Basketball
- 46:36Speaker 2: Hall of Fame next season, hopefully the Kurk Goudi Excellence
- 46:39Speaker 2: Award in Broadcasting.
- 46:41Speaker 1: Yeah, when I was covering the Piston George is a
- 46:43Speaker 1: great friend. He really has a great and it was
- 46:46Speaker 1: he is a great friend. I enjoyed working well him.
- 46:48Speaker 1: Not to have a bad thing to say about anybody.
- 46:50Speaker 1: I hope he does get there, but I think, like
- 46:52Speaker 1: you said, anything that tender him for getting there sooner
- 46:54Speaker 1: as the lack of a national voice to get him
- 46:56Speaker 1: there sooner. But I'm with you all the way, George JV. GoAhead.
- 47:02Speaker 3: So watching the NFL this last weekend, I come up
- 47:06Speaker 3: with a new idea. So during the combine they give
- 47:10Speaker 3: the Wonderlick tests to all the prospects, right, and I
- 47:15Speaker 3: was thinking NFL coaches are dumb as blank. Can't say
- 47:21Speaker 3: it because I'm not going to curse out here. The
- 47:24Speaker 3: Giants this weekend, down fourteen, score a touchdown, they go
- 47:28Speaker 3: for two. They did the same thing in Pittsburgh. Fourteen
- 47:31Speaker 3: minus six is eight. If you get one, which is
- 47:35Speaker 3: an extra point, you're down seven. You repeat that, you
- 47:39Speaker 3: tie the game. They were down fourteen in both games
- 47:42Speaker 3: and went for two. It didn't get it. You don't
- 47:45Speaker 3: have a dynamic offense, so you're not getting three yards regularly.
- 47:48Speaker 3: Why are you going for two when you score the
- 47:50Speaker 3: first touchdown and put yourself in a hole again. Secondly, Seattle,
- 47:56Speaker 3: why did they take the field goal in overtime? Put
- 48:00Speaker 3: the pressure on the Rams? You know, Nick Siriotti, why
- 48:04Speaker 3: don't you run Saquon Barkley a little bit more? He's
- 48:07Speaker 3: average of like five to six yards of carry every
- 48:09Speaker 3: time he touches the ball. He's the best part of
- 48:11Speaker 3: your offense. What is wrong with you? And I can
- 48:14Speaker 3: go on. Those are just three examples. So I demand
- 48:17Speaker 3: that every coach before they get hired in the NFL
- 48:19Speaker 3: has to take a one delict test and all their
- 48:21Speaker 3: scores become published like they do the prospects, because they
- 48:25Speaker 3: were all idiots except for Andy Reid and Mike Tomlin.
- 48:31Speaker 1: I don't know what do you think of Dan Campbell.
- 48:33Speaker 1: Joe's all right?
- 48:35Speaker 3: Okay, he's all right, but those are the two best.
- 48:37Speaker 1: In the league. Yeah, but at least he does push
- 48:40Speaker 1: hips during training camp. Right, But you know what, that's
- 48:46Speaker 1: one of your best party shots ever, Joe. I'll tell
- 48:48Speaker 1: you really put some gust go into that one. Well.
- 48:51Speaker 1: Last night, okay, I saw a Frank Reynold sighting on
- 48:56Speaker 1: ABC during the election. For those of you that don't
- 49:00Speaker 1: know who Frank Reynolds is okay, he is. He was
- 49:03Speaker 1: a one time host of ABC News Nightline and he
- 49:07Speaker 1: was one of the best news anchors I have ever
- 49:10Speaker 1: seen on television. Frank Reynolds is known for getting on
- 49:18Speaker 1: his people for not getting it. I don't want it
- 49:21Speaker 1: to be first. I want it to be right. Well,
- 49:24Speaker 1: you know what, I don't talk about politics, and I'm
- 49:27Speaker 1: not going to. I'm gonna say one thing. I don't
- 49:30Speaker 1: remember the last time that I stayed up until three
- 49:33Speaker 1: o'clock in the morning to watch something news related, and again,
- 49:37Speaker 1: this was the election. But I will say this, Okay, FCC,
- 49:41Speaker 1: all things considering, ABC got it right. They waited until
- 49:47Speaker 1: everything and I mean everything was in there before they
- 49:51Speaker 1: projected a winner. I'm not going to sit here and
- 49:54Speaker 1: sound off onother ones that are on table. They're not
- 49:57Speaker 1: FCC related, but I'm gonna tell you this much. Okay,
- 50:01Speaker 1: Frank Reynolds must be smiling at ABC and the way
- 50:05Speaker 1: that these people conducted their behavior because it was excellent.
- 50:09Speaker 1: I don't want to first, get it right, and that
- 50:12Speaker 1: get it right, folks, is something that I put in
- 50:15Speaker 1: the book Lessons from the Microphone. I want to thank
- 50:18Speaker 1: everybody in this chat room for their excellent participation from
- 50:21Speaker 1: Penman to Joshua door Blake and the rest who participated.
- 50:26Speaker 1: You guys are absolutely fantastic. Evada won't bring politics out.
- 50:30Speaker 1: But I never said anything about not praising good news
- 50:36Speaker 1: reporting I think nowadays. But one thing that is really
- 50:39Speaker 1: important to me as I continue to do more and
- 50:42Speaker 1: more podcasts, broadcast whatever you want to call them, is this. Okay,
- 50:47Speaker 1: I don't worry about the results of the game. I
- 50:49Speaker 1: want to know about the presentation and how it was delivered.
- 50:52Speaker 1: That's what I want to see when I go to
- 50:55Speaker 1: net when I go to games. Yes, outcome is important
- 50:58Speaker 1: about who won and lost, but I want to know
- 51:01Speaker 1: exactly what I can do the network, and then in
- 51:03Speaker 1: a situation like this, ABC delivered. I was proud of ABC.
- 51:08Speaker 1: Then many years ago I got my start with at
- 51:11Speaker 1: ABC with George Eichhorn and I was a producer for
- 51:14Speaker 1: Sports Talk ABC. You got it right. I'm proud of you,
- 51:18Speaker 1: and I learned it aful lot, and I can't thank
- 51:22Speaker 1: you enough for a nice, objective presentation with how you
- 51:25Speaker 1: conducted yourself arguably one of the biggest days. And then
- 51:30Speaker 1: for the next four years, anybody else have anything to add,
- 51:36Speaker 1: No okay, all right, can't you take us home?
- 51:40Speaker 4: South Florida Tribune Publishing Company published a book late, late,
