Youtube will get you involved. John, I don't

67
00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:41,871
know who needs the all star break more.

68
00:02:42,349 --> 00:02:44,260
The dodgers with a battered pitching staff,

69
00:02:44,912 --> 00:02:46,606
the pod who are highly

70
00:02:47,220 --> 00:02:49,926
emotionally erratic or just the fans of the

71
00:02:49,926 --> 00:02:50,881
dodgers and Pad.

72
00:02:51,358 --> 00:02:53,348
God, I can't believe what I'm seeing happening

73
00:02:53,348 --> 00:02:55,986
in it Cha Ravi and at Pit park.

74
00:02:56,224 --> 00:02:57,893
It's brutally. I mean, I don't how fans

75
00:02:57,893 --> 00:02:59,879
are putting up with this right now. So

76
00:02:59,879 --> 00:03:02,042
that's where we are there. We're gonna talk

77
00:03:02,122 --> 00:03:03,637
Baseball to start out of the gate.

78
00:03:04,593 --> 00:03:07,145
But I am a seating my chair and

79
00:03:07,145 --> 00:03:09,776
he is gonna talk Baseball with you to

80
00:03:09,776 --> 00:03:12,180
start. Am you gonna answer the question. Okay.

81
00:03:12,419 --> 00:03:13,932
I'll answer the question. I'm not gonna give

82
00:03:13,932 --> 00:03:16,082
you my opinion, but you're gonna answer the

83
00:03:16,082 --> 00:03:18,392
question. So, John, here we go. Item 1.

84
00:03:19,044 --> 00:03:20,642
All star team, and we got a bunch

85
00:03:20,642 --> 00:03:22,401
of injuries, guys have not gonna be able

86
00:03:22,401 --> 00:03:25,597
to go play bunch of replacements, etcetera. Home

87
00:03:25,597 --> 00:03:26,156
run derby.

88
00:03:26,716 --> 00:03:28,649
Do you like it? Is it a bad

89
00:03:28,649 --> 00:03:28,968
gimmick?

90
00:03:29,527 --> 00:03:32,005
Is it a health risk to the players?

91
00:03:32,324 --> 00:03:34,082
Do you like the rule changes? Or she

92
00:03:34,082 --> 00:03:35,121
would just leave it the way it is?

93
00:03:35,281 --> 00:03:37,375
And John Reilly says, I love the home

94
00:03:37,375 --> 00:03:39,215
run derby. I love everything about it. It's

95
00:03:39,215 --> 00:03:41,055
like the 3 point shot contests in the

96
00:03:41,215 --> 00:03:43,294
Nba. Keep it. You know, the monkey with

97
00:03:43,294 --> 00:03:44,735
the rules. I don't really get too hung

98
00:03:44,735 --> 00:03:46,899
up about that. But there won't be any

99
00:03:46,979 --> 00:03:48,908
Ot and there won't be any judge

100
00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:52,060
because of the injury factor, and there won't

101
00:03:52,060 --> 00:03:54,144
be any bryce harper, and there won't be

102
00:03:54,144 --> 00:03:54,884
some other

103
00:03:55,185 --> 00:03:58,224
American league stores because of the injury factor.

104
00:03:58,704 --> 00:03:59,204
So

105
00:04:00,144 --> 00:04:02,076
is it worth having if your guy gets

106
00:04:02,076 --> 00:04:03,752
hurt and can't play the second half of

107
00:04:03,752 --> 00:04:05,507
the season? It's always worth having. You know?

108
00:04:05,667 --> 00:04:07,422
I mean... You're gonna see the stars are

109
00:04:07,422 --> 00:04:09,111
gonna back off of it. Give the young

110
00:04:09,111 --> 00:04:10,861
guys a chance. Just like the slam dunk

111
00:04:10,861 --> 00:04:13,009
contest in the Nba, Keep it, love it.

112
00:04:13,168 --> 00:04:14,521
It's the best thing of all star weekend.

113
00:04:15,157 --> 00:04:15,396
Uniforms.

114
00:04:16,206 --> 00:04:18,111
I maintain old school me,

115
00:04:18,905 --> 00:04:20,438
let the American league guys

116
00:04:21,129 --> 00:04:24,718
wear their home uniforms, whites, all the different

117
00:04:24,718 --> 00:04:27,581
colors, the logos, etcetera, but the nationally league

118
00:04:27,581 --> 00:04:29,331
guys, where they're road gray.

119
00:04:29,887 --> 00:04:32,273
That way we can see all these guys

120
00:04:32,273 --> 00:04:34,436
lining up at first pace. I just don't

121
00:04:34,436 --> 00:04:36,986
like the American League and the National league

122
00:04:36,986 --> 00:04:37,225
uniforms.

123
00:04:38,182 --> 00:04:40,333
I'm a traditional... Sorry I'm old school, but

124
00:04:40,413 --> 00:04:42,574
I'm bleep brilliant. And John Reilly says, I

125
00:04:42,574 --> 00:04:44,161
agree with you. As a kid, I always

126
00:04:44,161 --> 00:04:46,701
love seeing all the different jersey, it was

127
00:04:46,701 --> 00:04:48,789
like a mash up, like, when they combine

128
00:04:49,019 --> 00:04:49,519
2

129
00:04:50,214 --> 00:04:51,886
sitcom into 1, you know, and you get

130
00:04:51,886 --> 00:04:54,617
at this cross merger of these people. So

131
00:04:54,834 --> 00:04:57,542
old school uniforms home and and road, I

132
00:04:57,542 --> 00:05:00,352
love that. K. Let's move on. Powder Baseball

133
00:05:00,432 --> 00:05:02,130
Bo. They send to Adam Me

134
00:05:02,589 --> 00:05:05,786
back to triple. 7 point 84ERA.

135
00:05:06,919 --> 00:05:08,751
They had to pitch him. They force fed

136
00:05:08,751 --> 00:05:09,946
him. He got lit.

137
00:05:10,822 --> 00:05:13,075
They're just in world of hurt for starting

138
00:05:13,132 --> 00:05:13,292
pitching.

139
00:05:14,103 --> 00:05:14,977
Know you da.

140
00:05:15,692 --> 00:05:18,632
Joe Mu still looks way too far away.

141
00:05:19,347 --> 00:05:21,747
Somebody's gotta solve the mist 3 of who

142
00:05:21,827 --> 00:05:25,252
Dillon really is right now. And Michael King

143
00:05:25,252 --> 00:05:27,585
continues to pitch well, and they need W

144
00:05:27,642 --> 00:05:29,793
knuckle ball to Dart dash and do what

145
00:05:29,793 --> 00:05:31,876
it does, 3 where the p to me

146
00:05:31,876 --> 00:05:34,180
just look like they got real issues, and

147
00:05:34,180 --> 00:05:34,974
here's the question.

148
00:05:35,609 --> 00:05:36,801
Trade deadline is coming.

149
00:05:37,516 --> 00:05:40,480
There are probably 5... Established pictures that they

150
00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:42,160
could rent or trade 4.

151
00:05:42,959 --> 00:05:45,120
I like Cal quan the most of the

152
00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:46,720
5 that we've openly talked about.

153
00:05:48,334 --> 00:05:50,811
What do they do to get Cal Quan?

154
00:05:51,530 --> 00:05:54,326
Would you trade Hassan Kim? Would you trade

155
00:05:54,406 --> 00:05:55,445
Louise Camp on?

156
00:05:56,098 --> 00:05:59,365
Would you just go ahead and trade Ethan

157
00:05:59,604 --> 00:06:02,154
Sal, the class a catcher that they give

158
00:06:02,154 --> 00:06:04,225
the big signing bonus to if you could

159
00:06:04,225 --> 00:06:05,181
get the right picture?

160
00:06:05,834 --> 00:06:06,470
John Reilly?

161
00:06:07,824 --> 00:06:09,336
You didn't get dressed as a as a

162
00:06:09,336 --> 00:06:11,247
you were general manager today, but you are

163
00:06:11,247 --> 00:06:12,919
the general manager. The potter go ahead. Oh,

164
00:06:13,237 --> 00:06:14,844
well, first of all, worried about Dylan Cease.

165
00:06:15,082 --> 00:06:16,753
I think the last outing, he was good

166
00:06:16,753 --> 00:06:18,344
for, like, 7 innings and he got tired

167
00:06:18,344 --> 00:06:18,821
at the end.

168
00:06:20,014 --> 00:06:23,214
W, not king, their solid vas cash shows

169
00:06:23,214 --> 00:06:25,045
me a little something. They do need to

170
00:06:25,045 --> 00:06:27,593
trade. Cal Q would be nice. I don't

171
00:06:27,593 --> 00:06:29,758
know. It's kinda weird kinda trading back for

172
00:06:29,758 --> 00:06:31,825
a guy you traded away. But I don't

173
00:06:31,825 --> 00:06:33,733
know if the Rockies would take H Kim

174
00:06:33,733 --> 00:06:34,846
for 2 or 3 months,

175
00:06:35,641 --> 00:06:37,310
you know, for a Cal quan. I think

176
00:06:37,310 --> 00:06:39,552
they could demand more for but if you

177
00:06:39,552 --> 00:06:41,224
were to trade Kim, that could actually work

178
00:06:41,224 --> 00:06:42,498
as you could solve the log jam in

179
00:06:42,498 --> 00:06:44,648
the in field. Okay. Let's go to Dodge

180
00:06:44,648 --> 00:06:45,285
or baseball.

181
00:06:45,922 --> 00:06:47,037
As of this morning.

182
00:06:47,926 --> 00:06:49,775
The dodgers now have 16

183
00:06:50,386 --> 00:06:53,085
pictures on the disable list. That's unbelievable. The

184
00:06:53,085 --> 00:06:54,355
dodgers have no rotation.

185
00:06:55,164 --> 00:06:56,861
You know, and they've not been the same

186
00:06:57,238 --> 00:07:01,226
team, same pitching staff since Yam went down

187
00:07:01,226 --> 00:07:03,379
with the strain rotator cuff, they have no

188
00:07:03,379 --> 00:07:04,576
idea when he's coming back.

189
00:07:05,468 --> 00:07:06,822
So the burning question is,

190
00:07:07,698 --> 00:07:08,415
what do they do?

191
00:07:09,291 --> 00:07:11,124
K gone, b gone.

192
00:07:12,654 --> 00:07:15,051
May has gone, glass now is now on

193
00:07:15,051 --> 00:07:18,727
the disabled list, but 16 total pictures, including

194
00:07:18,727 --> 00:07:20,245
some significant relief guys.

195
00:07:21,059 --> 00:07:22,336
Never been afraid to make a deal.

196
00:07:23,055 --> 00:07:25,689
Maybe you train James Out, maybe a trade

197
00:07:25,769 --> 00:07:28,004
Gavin luxe, Maybe you go into the farm

198
00:07:28,004 --> 00:07:29,361
system and trades some more prospects.

199
00:07:30,574 --> 00:07:31,053
Historically,

200
00:07:31,532 --> 00:07:33,530
you do remember the Mu Bets deal, the

201
00:07:33,530 --> 00:07:36,166
deadline. Mh. Historically, you do remember Make sure

202
00:07:36,166 --> 00:07:38,574
are at the deadline? Yes. Historically, way back

203
00:07:38,574 --> 00:07:40,270
in the day. Do you remember the monster

204
00:07:40,567 --> 00:07:43,276
Adrian Gon gonzales or Red sox deal in

205
00:07:43,276 --> 00:07:44,972
the day. So they've never

206
00:07:45,284 --> 00:07:47,916
been fearful to make a deal. What do

207
00:07:47,916 --> 00:07:49,431
you think this should do? Pick up the

208
00:07:49,431 --> 00:07:51,824
phone and call Don Sutton. You know, that

209
00:07:51,824 --> 00:07:54,536
guy is consistent. He shows up fourth or

210
00:07:54,536 --> 00:07:56,944
fifth day, No. But, they're gonna make a

211
00:07:56,944 --> 00:07:58,380
deal, but I don't know if it's gonna

212
00:07:58,380 --> 00:08:00,375
be the usual suspects, you know, the Cal

213
00:08:00,375 --> 00:08:02,050
quan controls and Zac ef of the world.

214
00:08:02,544 --> 00:08:04,941
Usually, they've got something up their sleeve. You

215
00:08:04,941 --> 00:08:06,459
know, And I think a j Pro does

216
00:08:06,459 --> 00:08:07,897
too. I think we're gonna start to see

217
00:08:07,897 --> 00:08:10,543
names that we didn't expect. I saw in

218
00:08:10,543 --> 00:08:11,893
your, best 15 that,

219
00:08:12,925 --> 00:08:14,909
sure are said, hey, I'm not waving my

220
00:08:14,909 --> 00:08:16,655
no trade deal. So it's gonna have to

221
00:08:16,655 --> 00:08:19,464
be someone else. Unless it's a dodge trade,

222
00:08:19,625 --> 00:08:21,464
which would bring him back to where he

223
00:08:21,464 --> 00:08:23,944
liked that last time around, and they did

224
00:08:23,944 --> 00:08:25,199
digitally till ran out of guest

225
00:08:25,636 --> 00:08:27,302
So we get the dodgers to talk about

226
00:08:27,302 --> 00:08:29,681
2 as it relates to trades. 1 side

227
00:08:29,681 --> 00:08:31,902
note, and this is the terrible news that

228
00:08:31,902 --> 00:08:32,695
broke this morning.

229
00:08:33,585 --> 00:08:34,945
We talked about a month ago about the

230
00:08:34,945 --> 00:08:37,024
passing of former number 1 draft Shawn Burrows,

231
00:08:37,745 --> 00:08:38,565
dropped dead

232
00:08:39,264 --> 00:08:40,865
in a parking lot next to a little

233
00:08:40,865 --> 00:08:41,345
league field.

234
00:08:41,918 --> 00:08:44,306
Now the autopsy came back overdose of fentanyl.

235
00:08:44,624 --> 00:08:47,966
Oh, really? He was doing fentanyl in the

236
00:08:47,966 --> 00:08:50,751
parking lot after he dropped his son off.

237
00:08:51,481 --> 00:08:53,784
At little league practice, and he dropped dead

238
00:08:53,784 --> 00:08:56,087
right next to his Suv. And this guy

239
00:08:56,087 --> 00:08:58,390
had fought back from the drug issues and

240
00:08:58,390 --> 00:09:00,081
it just shows the grasp

241
00:09:00,789 --> 00:09:03,343
the drug addiction has where all the rehab

242
00:09:03,343 --> 00:09:04,940
and all the positives that we saw in

243
00:09:04,940 --> 00:09:07,255
the last couple of years where he regroup

244
00:09:07,255 --> 00:09:09,331
as as a person and regroup as a

245
00:09:09,331 --> 00:09:09,570
father,

246
00:09:10,223 --> 00:09:12,610
he did fentanyl in the parking lot. O

247
00:09:12,610 --> 00:09:14,917
dude right there. A horrible story.

248
00:09:15,792 --> 00:09:17,318
I I don't know to say. I mean,

249
00:09:17,397 --> 00:09:19,543
it's a sad story fentanyl rip in this

250
00:09:19,543 --> 00:09:20,020
country apart.

251
00:09:21,291 --> 00:09:21,529
Wow,

252
00:09:22,324 --> 00:09:23,993
said it is. Mh. We go from that

253
00:09:23,993 --> 00:09:26,312
topic. You got another baseball topic. I Yeah.

254
00:09:26,471 --> 00:09:28,298
And there's some guys going to jail, here,

255
00:09:28,456 --> 00:09:29,965
Lee. Yeah. I mean, who we talking about?

256
00:09:30,203 --> 00:09:33,379
Tampa bay. All star shorts stop. Wander Franco.

257
00:09:34,508 --> 00:09:37,162
Has been charged with sexual abuse

258
00:09:37,619 --> 00:09:38,895
and human trafficking,

259
00:09:39,693 --> 00:09:41,926
14 year old girl. Oh god. He had

260
00:09:41,926 --> 00:09:43,760
a 4 month relationship with this girl.

261
00:09:44,650 --> 00:09:47,191
He paid the girl's mother 62000

262
00:09:47,191 --> 00:09:49,811
dollars to allow a, quote the relationship to

263
00:09:49,811 --> 00:09:51,797
go on. She allowed that to happen.

264
00:09:52,369 --> 00:09:55,006
She's been charged now with human trafficking.

265
00:09:56,285 --> 00:09:58,863
Today, about an hour ago, he was

266
00:09:59,642 --> 00:10:01,640
ripped off the Tampa bay reserve,

267
00:10:02,295 --> 00:10:04,855
been put on the exe list, is 11

268
00:10:04,855 --> 00:10:07,175
year 182000000

269
00:10:07,175 --> 00:10:10,475
dollar contract is now void and in jeopardy

270
00:10:10,615 --> 00:10:13,590
jesus. He's facing 5 to 20 years in

271
00:10:13,590 --> 00:10:17,269
prison for the sexual abuse issue. The human

272
00:10:17,269 --> 00:10:19,350
trafficking thing is even been much more severe.

273
00:10:20,242 --> 00:10:23,261
Wander Franco. Just absolutely amazing. Tampa had a

274
00:10:23,261 --> 00:10:26,200
tough tough season with pitching injuries, and they're

275
00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:28,027
not the same team right now without him.

276
00:10:28,519 --> 00:10:29,720
In the middle of the batting order.

277
00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:32,920
He's probably going to prison, maybe 5 years,

278
00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:35,000
maybe as many as 20.

279
00:10:35,815 --> 00:10:37,014
That's the Tampa bay story.

280
00:10:37,735 --> 00:10:39,654
Dodge story. This is really eerie.

281
00:10:40,214 --> 00:10:41,194
Remember the

282
00:10:41,735 --> 00:10:44,865
great slug out feel, Role Mu. Oh, yeah.

283
00:10:45,023 --> 00:10:46,767
Yeah. Home run hit... El Can.

284
00:10:48,115 --> 00:10:50,256
Retired after bouncing around at the... After he

285
00:10:50,256 --> 00:10:51,683
had a long run with the dodgers.

286
00:10:52,332 --> 00:10:55,982
When home to San Christ, Dominican Republic, got

287
00:10:55,982 --> 00:10:59,076
into politics, actually became the mayor of that

288
00:10:59,076 --> 00:11:00,211
city san Christ

289
00:11:00,996 --> 00:11:01,711
for 6 years.

290
00:11:02,664 --> 00:11:03,958
Indicted, arrested

291
00:11:04,332 --> 00:11:07,430
massive corruption stealing 6000000

292
00:11:07,430 --> 00:11:10,051
dollars in funds from San Crystal.

293
00:11:10,783 --> 00:11:12,856
Has been ordered 7 years in prison,

294
00:11:13,494 --> 00:11:14,850
507000

295
00:11:14,850 --> 00:11:15,966
dollars in fines.

296
00:11:16,684 --> 00:11:18,996
He had spent 6 years already at house

297
00:11:18,996 --> 00:11:19,236
arrest.

298
00:11:19,889 --> 00:11:20,548
But they

299
00:11:21,085 --> 00:11:24,375
gave the new charges out and ordered Mon

300
00:11:24,832 --> 00:11:25,390
to prison.

301
00:11:25,948 --> 00:11:27,942
This guy made 73000000

302
00:11:27,942 --> 00:11:28,442
dollars

303
00:11:28,994 --> 00:11:29,894
as a dodge

304
00:11:30,512 --> 00:11:31,551
went to other places,

305
00:11:32,430 --> 00:11:34,129
Toronto Tampa, Washington,

306
00:11:34,987 --> 00:11:37,818
and the guy steal 6000000 from his poverty

307
00:11:37,873 --> 00:11:38,904
stricken hometown,

308
00:11:39,777 --> 00:11:40,094
amazing.

309
00:11:40,649 --> 00:11:43,426
7 year prison sentence for our Mon. Just

310
00:11:43,426 --> 00:11:45,743
amazing story. Yeah. That 1 caught me by

311
00:11:45,743 --> 00:11:47,570
surprise. I didn't realize he was in politics.

312
00:11:48,046 --> 00:11:49,555
But I will say this... Well, first of

313
00:11:49,555 --> 00:11:50,906
all, let me just say that. That the

314
00:11:50,985 --> 00:11:52,732
Wanda Franco thing, it's good that the laws

315
00:11:52,732 --> 00:11:55,375
cracking down on it. They're... That is wrong.

316
00:11:55,694 --> 00:11:58,645
Morally legally, etcetera, Same with Raul Mon and

317
00:11:58,645 --> 00:12:01,277
the corruption. But compare that to America where

318
00:12:01,277 --> 00:12:03,531
we have, like, the Jeffrey s epstein Lolita

319
00:12:03,684 --> 00:12:06,310
Island. We've got other politicians that are corrupt.

320
00:12:06,548 --> 00:12:08,617
And yet they're not being held accountable, but

321
00:12:08,617 --> 00:12:11,402
little, you know, dominican Republic, at least, their

322
00:12:11,402 --> 00:12:12,889
police forces is doing the right thing. Island

323
00:12:13,009 --> 00:12:15,894
to quote the legendary boxing promoter Don King

324
00:12:16,189 --> 00:12:18,733
based on just your statement about Americans and

325
00:12:18,733 --> 00:12:20,721
who's being prosecuted and who's not and who's

326
00:12:20,721 --> 00:12:23,524
avoiding it in America great Yeah. That's what

327
00:12:23,684 --> 00:12:26,084
Don Kim would have to say. So if

328
00:12:26,084 --> 00:12:28,324
you're a baseball fan Pod and Dodge fan,

329
00:12:28,485 --> 00:12:30,324

chat box get ready. So Express an opinion,

331
00:12:33,048 --> 00:12:35,194
ask a question, and we'll talk about the

332
00:12:35,194 --> 00:12:38,133
terrible news with Shawn Burrows and obviously, what's

333
00:12:38,133 --> 00:12:39,881
happened in Tampa Bay and what's happened.

334
00:12:40,533 --> 00:12:42,206
To the ex los Angeles Dodgers.

335
00:12:42,764 --> 00:12:45,711
Boy, bad 24 hours for Usa soccer 2.

336
00:12:46,030 --> 00:12:48,357
Yeah. It's rough. I mean, they got blown

337
00:12:48,357 --> 00:12:50,511
out at Cop, and now Bear holt gone.

338
00:12:51,149 --> 00:12:52,846
Craig Be Holt was fired

339
00:12:53,304 --> 00:12:54,501
on Wednesday afternoon.

340
00:12:55,153 --> 00:12:57,062
I had told you during a Monday bonus

341
00:12:57,062 --> 00:12:58,972
podcast that we would have a decision within

342
00:12:58,972 --> 00:13:00,324
48 hours Bingo.

343
00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:01,597
It's gone.

344
00:13:02,409 --> 00:13:04,566
I'm not sure I agree with it, but

345
00:13:04,566 --> 00:13:07,442
the president of the Us soccer Federation said

346
00:13:07,442 --> 00:13:08,640
today, they felt.

347
00:13:09,372 --> 00:13:11,990
0 progress was made with Greg Bur holt

348
00:13:11,990 --> 00:13:14,133
as coach even when they brought them back

349
00:13:14,133 --> 00:13:16,673
over the last 10 months. When 7 6

350
00:13:16,673 --> 00:13:19,787
and 1 after he was re hired his

351
00:13:19,787 --> 00:13:22,490
composite record when he rebuilt them after not

352
00:13:22,490 --> 00:13:25,193
getting into the world cup, he rebuilt the

353
00:13:25,193 --> 00:13:27,204
program after 2018

354
00:13:27,340 --> 00:13:30,366
through 44 17 and 13, but they threw

355
00:13:30,366 --> 00:13:31,816
them out of out of the job

356
00:13:32,267 --> 00:13:33,773
because of the past 10 months.

357
00:13:35,059 --> 00:13:37,460
Half half the people that I canvas that

358
00:13:37,539 --> 00:13:39,940
I network with, say, had to do it.

359
00:13:40,100 --> 00:13:42,019
The other half said he needed more time.

360
00:13:42,419 --> 00:13:44,434
I said he needed more time, He got

361
00:13:44,434 --> 00:13:46,754
such a gifted young roster to put around

362
00:13:46,834 --> 00:13:47,074
Christian.

363
00:13:48,195 --> 00:13:49,154
They didn't give them the time.

364
00:13:49,875 --> 00:13:50,914
Where do they go from here?

365
00:13:51,967 --> 00:13:53,502
J K, liverpool.

366
00:13:54,674 --> 00:13:55,151
Do,

367
00:13:56,107 --> 00:13:56,607
unbelievably

368
00:13:57,062 --> 00:13:57,562
successful

369
00:13:57,937 --> 00:13:59,211
as a coach in Europe,

370
00:13:59,703 --> 00:14:00,657
He's available.

371
00:14:01,054 --> 00:14:02,008
Big problem though.

372
00:14:02,724 --> 00:14:04,393
They paid Birth holt or 2000000.

373
00:14:05,029 --> 00:14:05,267
Season.

374
00:14:06,221 --> 00:14:08,287
Clock makes 20000000 a year. Oh, that's a

375
00:14:08,287 --> 00:14:10,211
big difference. That's a huge difference.

376
00:14:10,768 --> 00:14:13,076
That's a huge difference for the Us soccer

377
00:14:13,633 --> 00:14:16,258
Federation. Other name that's been mentioned has just

378
00:14:16,258 --> 00:14:17,690
surfaced. He was a finalist.

379
00:14:18,262 --> 00:14:20,569
During this interim period before they decided to

380
00:14:20,569 --> 00:14:23,193
bring Bur holt her back is Just Marsh,

381
00:14:24,068 --> 00:14:26,136
the guy who is coach team Canada,

382
00:14:26,788 --> 00:14:29,417
into the Covid tournament before they finally got

383
00:14:29,417 --> 00:14:29,917
eliminated.

384
00:14:30,293 --> 00:14:33,342
So the... There's upheaval or 21 months out

385
00:14:33,654 --> 00:14:35,562
from the World cup here in the states.

386
00:14:36,278 --> 00:14:38,266
They think they're gonna hire a new coach

387
00:14:38,266 --> 00:14:40,436
sometime between this afternoon

388
00:14:41,129 --> 00:14:43,458
and Labor Day weekend the first of September

389
00:14:43,769 --> 00:14:46,405
that's when the next group of Usa friendly

390
00:14:46,405 --> 00:14:49,441
matches begin as they start the push towards

391
00:14:49,441 --> 00:14:50,080
the world cup.

392
00:14:50,733 --> 00:14:51,208
You said,

393
00:14:52,001 --> 00:14:52,318
Dummy,

394
00:14:52,952 --> 00:14:55,410
that be holt had to be fired that

395
00:14:55,410 --> 00:14:56,837
this thing had really reg.

396
00:14:57,392 --> 00:14:57,947
I said,

397
00:14:58,677 --> 00:15:00,506
He found all these good young kids have

398
00:15:00,506 --> 00:15:02,734
developed them 23 of them played abroad. They

399
00:15:02,734 --> 00:15:04,245
brought him home. Got them ready to play

400
00:15:04,245 --> 00:15:04,722
in cop.

401
00:15:05,533 --> 00:15:07,599
Expected too much too soon. I think they

402
00:15:07,599 --> 00:15:09,426
should have given him more time. So where

403
00:15:09,426 --> 00:15:11,357
do we go from here? Do you obviously

404
00:15:11,492 --> 00:15:12,366
agree with the dismissal.

405
00:15:12,937 --> 00:15:14,763
Well, Mean, he had to be fired because

406
00:15:14,763 --> 00:15:16,747
of, you know, we can't accept this. I

407
00:15:16,747 --> 00:15:19,525
mean, especially the United States of America. We

408
00:15:19,525 --> 00:15:21,192
we need to be competitive in these tournaments.

409
00:15:21,510 --> 00:15:23,279
Yeah But I do wonder though, what did

410
00:15:23,279 --> 00:15:25,672
he specifically do wrong? You know, did he,

411
00:15:25,752 --> 00:15:27,985
like, have a bad lineup or a bad

412
00:15:27,985 --> 00:15:30,218
offensive scheme? Or I mean, what was the

413
00:15:30,218 --> 00:15:31,906
reason other than we lost.

414
00:15:32,543 --> 00:15:34,930
Too many kids. But those kids have to

415
00:15:34,930 --> 00:15:35,168
learn.

416
00:15:35,805 --> 00:15:37,635
That's the learning curve of playing at this

417
00:15:37,635 --> 00:15:37,953
level.

418
00:15:38,589 --> 00:15:40,022
I mean, you look on paper,

419
00:15:40,594 --> 00:15:41,732
and you see gi,

420
00:15:42,428 --> 00:15:43,623
and you see 4 bull logan,

421
00:15:44,421 --> 00:15:46,334
and then you see some of the others

422
00:15:46,334 --> 00:15:47,211
pepe, etcetera.

423
00:15:47,929 --> 00:15:48,748
That's firepower.

424
00:15:49,699 --> 00:15:52,197
Those guys didn't convert open shots

425
00:15:52,736 --> 00:15:53,375
in Cop,

426
00:15:53,934 --> 00:15:55,533
but that does not mean they're not gonna

427
00:15:55,533 --> 00:15:58,330
grow and become better players through more international

428
00:15:58,330 --> 00:16:00,035
cup petition before we ever get

429
00:16:00,487 --> 00:16:01,677
to 20 26.

430
00:16:02,311 --> 00:16:04,136
I just thought it was too soon to

431
00:16:04,136 --> 00:16:05,008
make that decision.

432
00:16:05,658 --> 00:16:08,855
But they were really young. I mean, out

433
00:16:08,910 --> 00:16:10,972
outside of And outside of Tim Weir,

434
00:16:11,686 --> 00:16:12,638
outside of West Mckinney,

435
00:16:13,843 --> 00:16:15,694
awful lot of young guys and it takes

436
00:16:15,751 --> 00:16:17,976
time for young guys to learn how to

437
00:16:17,976 --> 00:16:18,771
play of the position.

438
00:16:20,519 --> 00:16:22,836
There were all alternatives. This was the best

439
00:16:22,836 --> 00:16:25,001
crop of young guys that they thought were

440
00:16:25,136 --> 00:16:27,356
ready to make the next step. Didn't make

441
00:16:27,356 --> 00:16:28,149
the step in Cop.

442
00:16:29,593 --> 00:16:31,984
Ballistic really upset. Well, and then, you know,

443
00:16:32,063 --> 00:16:33,099
do you see how a a kid from

444
00:16:33,259 --> 00:16:35,251
Spain only 16 years old had us cut

445
00:16:35,251 --> 00:16:37,814
a gore a a goal. It's incredible how

446
00:16:37,814 --> 00:16:39,406
some of these young kids can perform. But

447
00:16:39,406 --> 00:16:41,873
you say they didn't have enough experience. But

448
00:16:41,873 --> 00:16:43,067
if you were to look at, like, some

449
00:16:43,067 --> 00:16:44,897
of the European teams, do they have guys

450
00:16:44,897 --> 00:16:46,091
plan that are in their thirties,

451
00:16:46,584 --> 00:16:48,416
or we just talk an older guys like

452
00:16:48,416 --> 00:16:50,329
late twenties. No. No. There are some guys

453
00:16:50,329 --> 00:16:52,400
that are plus 30 that played at the

454
00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:55,269
tail end for Columbia. Mh. For Uruguay, etcetera.

455
00:16:55,587 --> 00:16:55,747
Yeah.

456
00:16:56,399 --> 00:16:58,148
They're not starters, but they come off the

457
00:16:58,148 --> 00:17:01,034
bench in the 70 fifth minute, etcetera. So

458
00:17:01,091 --> 00:17:02,602
it's there just finding the combo.

459
00:17:03,556 --> 00:17:04,192
Get me tough.

460
00:17:04,844 --> 00:17:07,317
I like k. As as you... I think

461
00:17:07,317 --> 00:17:08,034
alluded to Monday.

462
00:17:08,912 --> 00:17:11,304
Dude's got a resume. Oh, for sure. So

463
00:17:11,384 --> 00:17:13,697
I'll be interested to see if financially, they

464
00:17:13,697 --> 00:17:16,910
can create something special. And he's a very

465
00:17:16,910 --> 00:17:17,410
different

466
00:17:18,109 --> 00:17:18,750
global coach.

467
00:17:19,470 --> 00:17:19,630
He's...

468
00:17:20,430 --> 00:17:22,942
He speaks English really well. Get a great

469
00:17:23,078 --> 00:17:25,783
persona. He's not somebody who can't link down

470
00:17:25,783 --> 00:17:27,772
on a verb and you can't understand and

471
00:17:27,772 --> 00:17:29,937
runs a different system, This guy's got a

472
00:17:29,937 --> 00:17:32,489
great track record, So that'll be fascinating to

473
00:17:32,489 --> 00:17:34,802
see. We go from that, and we're talking

474
00:17:34,802 --> 00:17:36,637
about an unbelievable Sunday. I don't know what

475
00:17:36,637 --> 00:17:38,710
you're doing on Sunday, but don't bother me.

476
00:17:39,684 --> 00:17:41,285
I am I am watching the finals of

477
00:17:41,285 --> 00:17:42,505
the European championship.

478
00:17:43,204 --> 00:17:46,085
The 3 lions, the English who are getting

479
00:17:46,085 --> 00:17:48,814
ripped right from game 1. Of the Euro

480
00:17:48,814 --> 00:17:50,880
championships are in the finals.

481
00:17:51,675 --> 00:17:54,082
And, I mean, England came up with a

482
00:17:54,138 --> 00:17:56,465
phenomenal upset win over the Netherlands

483
00:17:57,253 --> 00:17:58,370
that coach Garrett,

484
00:17:59,646 --> 00:18:02,438
South gate has just been blasted in back

485
00:18:02,438 --> 00:18:04,751
in London as not being the right guy.

486
00:18:04,990 --> 00:18:06,799
Well, the not being the right guys got

487
00:18:06,919 --> 00:18:09,542
these guys in the euro finals.

488
00:18:10,178 --> 00:18:11,689
And I... I went back and I looked

489
00:18:11,689 --> 00:18:13,914
at the box score. And I follow the

490
00:18:14,074 --> 00:18:15,902
Ep p, the English primarily league go lot.

491
00:18:16,220 --> 00:18:18,303
These and I thought, he's got an all

492
00:18:18,303 --> 00:18:20,371
star lineup. He's got every star from the

493
00:18:20,530 --> 00:18:22,677
English premier league we're in the 3 Lion

494
00:18:22,677 --> 00:18:24,189
logo, and that's why they're winning in all

495
00:18:24,189 --> 00:18:24,666
these games.

496
00:18:25,318 --> 00:18:25,818
Harry

497
00:18:26,195 --> 00:18:26,355
Phil,

498
00:18:27,232 --> 00:18:28,131
Jade Bell,

499
00:18:28,748 --> 00:18:29,865
D clan Rice,

500
00:18:30,423 --> 00:18:31,460
Bruno Sa,

501
00:18:31,858 --> 00:18:34,092
and the hero yesterday, Ali Watkins.

502
00:18:34,984 --> 00:18:37,534
Them at just absolutely amazing how these guys

503
00:18:37,534 --> 00:18:40,721
have quote come together. That's an experience side

504
00:18:40,721 --> 00:18:41,916
of Ep p guys.

505
00:18:42,409 --> 00:18:44,960
As compared to Team Usa, which has all

506
00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:46,793
these young pups that they sent to play

507
00:18:46,793 --> 00:18:48,388
in England and play in Germany and play

508
00:18:48,388 --> 00:18:50,482
in Spain and play Italy

509
00:18:50,874 --> 00:18:53,100
are just learning on the job. So England

510
00:18:53,100 --> 00:18:55,007
has gone to the finals against Spain. Spain

511
00:18:55,007 --> 00:18:56,223
got enormous firepower.

512
00:18:56,915 --> 00:18:58,449
And then we get to Cobra

513
00:18:58,839 --> 00:19:00,514
Here comes that championship game,

514
00:19:02,428 --> 00:19:02,747
Argentina,

515
00:19:03,306 --> 00:19:03,784
Columbia,

516
00:19:04,582 --> 00:19:05,480
Lionel Messi

517
00:19:06,177 --> 00:19:08,352
against the Columbia side that just

518
00:19:08,744 --> 00:19:09,539
beats on you.

519
00:19:10,176 --> 00:19:13,437
I watch the Uruguay Columbia semi final.

520
00:19:14,153 --> 00:19:16,324
They don't play soccer. That's like a freaking

521
00:19:16,540 --> 00:19:17,176
street fright.

522
00:19:17,747 --> 00:19:20,209
There were, like 29 foul. There were 7

523
00:19:20,209 --> 00:19:22,909
yellow. There was a red card ejection, and

524
00:19:22,909 --> 00:19:24,973
a whole bunch that never got called. I've

525
00:19:24,973 --> 00:19:26,482
never seen so many guys.

526
00:19:27,292 --> 00:19:29,123
To this from behind, knock guys down,

527
00:19:29,759 --> 00:19:32,227
and the referee says play on. I mean,

528
00:19:32,465 --> 00:19:35,187
it it is such a different style. You

529
00:19:35,187 --> 00:19:37,498
think messi is gonna get kicked and get

530
00:19:37,498 --> 00:19:40,070
knocked down or this this Sunday championship

531
00:19:40,685 --> 00:19:41,801
is is gonna be good.

532
00:19:42,374 --> 00:19:44,762
And the phrase that popped into my mind

533
00:19:44,762 --> 00:19:46,115
last night. I was all I was always

534
00:19:46,115 --> 00:19:48,265
almost gonna text you right at the end

535
00:19:48,265 --> 00:19:50,096
of Columbia, Y ago. I mean, it, there

536
00:19:50,096 --> 00:19:52,509
was a there were foul every minute.

537
00:19:53,150 --> 00:19:54,910
Had 1 stretch where they had 6 yellow

538
00:19:54,910 --> 00:19:56,910
cards and a 3 minute span. Guys are

539
00:19:56,910 --> 00:19:58,029
just getting flattened.

540
00:19:58,844 --> 00:20:00,439
And I was gonna text you and say,

541
00:20:01,237 --> 00:20:02,354
soccer calls itself.

542
00:20:02,912 --> 00:20:05,384
Beautiful game? Yeah. Not so much. Not so

543
00:20:05,384 --> 00:20:08,096
much. Not not last night. So we got

544
00:20:08,096 --> 00:20:08,256
that.

545
00:20:09,544 --> 00:20:11,793
You... Your comments on with Cop

546
00:20:12,167 --> 00:20:13,757
and with European championships is gonna be like,

547
00:20:13,916 --> 00:20:15,586
well, I watched that game too. Uruguay in

548
00:20:15,745 --> 00:20:17,335
Colombia. And Columbia, it was playing a man

549
00:20:17,335 --> 00:20:20,382
down for, 85 minutes. Yeah. I mean, and

550
00:20:20,382 --> 00:20:22,540
so... And they just kept hanging on, and

551
00:20:22,540 --> 00:20:24,378
and it was amazing seeing in Uruguay I

552
00:20:24,378 --> 00:20:26,615
just tried to break through and they never

553
00:20:26,615 --> 00:20:26,775
could.

554
00:20:27,589 --> 00:20:29,269
Meanwhile, Columbia, every once in a while, they

555
00:20:29,269 --> 00:20:30,950
had a shot on an open goal and

556
00:20:30,950 --> 00:20:33,430
they would miss, it was a incredibly entertaining

557
00:20:33,430 --> 00:20:35,670
game, big upset, You know, since they took

558
00:20:35,670 --> 00:20:35,750
out.

559
00:20:36,879 --> 00:20:38,629
Brazil prior to that. So they go to

560
00:20:38,629 --> 00:20:40,061
the finals. I mean, but, you know, it's

561
00:20:40,061 --> 00:20:41,731
gonna be messy in Argentina. I think we

562
00:20:41,731 --> 00:20:42,368
can expect that.

563
00:20:43,178 --> 00:20:45,161
In the Euro cup, I'm interested because I...

564
00:20:45,241 --> 00:20:47,462
When I think of the European powers in

565
00:20:47,462 --> 00:20:49,049
soccer, I think of France, I think of

566
00:20:49,049 --> 00:20:50,398
italy, I think of Germany,

567
00:20:51,683 --> 00:20:53,990
but then maybe the Netherlands, like a notch

568
00:20:53,990 --> 00:20:56,853
down and England, a notch 2 down, maybe

569
00:20:57,012 --> 00:20:58,420
Spain and notch down, But

570
00:20:58,779 --> 00:21:01,332
neither Spain or or England or really the

571
00:21:01,332 --> 00:21:04,285
class of Europe. Are they? Not really. Spain

572
00:21:04,285 --> 00:21:06,040
and Spain has been great. Portugal has been

573
00:21:06,040 --> 00:21:09,162
great. Obviously, German historically has been great.

574
00:21:10,117 --> 00:21:12,108
But it's just it's a different era right

575
00:21:12,108 --> 00:21:14,258
now. And... Like I said, I went back

576
00:21:14,258 --> 00:21:16,186
and looked to the roster of the English

577
00:21:16,186 --> 00:21:18,180
side, the 3 lions, and I said, they

578
00:21:18,180 --> 00:21:19,615
got an all star team because every 1

579
00:21:19,615 --> 00:21:22,327
of these guys is is the star and

580
00:21:22,327 --> 00:21:24,241
leader of their team in the English premier

581
00:21:24,321 --> 00:21:26,808
League And those guys all played integral parts

582
00:21:26,808 --> 00:21:28,824
and that English win

583
00:21:29,441 --> 00:21:31,913
in the semi final game. So it's just...

584
00:21:32,232 --> 00:21:33,668
This is a... Turned out to be a

585
00:21:33,668 --> 00:21:34,646
really different

586
00:21:35,117 --> 00:21:36,015
euro championships.

587
00:21:36,469 --> 00:21:38,218
And maybe maybe it's a changing in the

588
00:21:38,218 --> 00:21:38,457
guard,

589
00:21:39,252 --> 00:21:41,103
with with so many of these great European

590
00:21:41,239 --> 00:21:43,545
players being 35 or 38 that this is

591
00:21:43,545 --> 00:21:43,943
the end.

592
00:21:44,594 --> 00:21:46,669
Of their run. So if you're a soccer

Dixie Lumber, and by North County ice centers.

690

John, we're talking basketball, we're going a lot

691
00:25:23,791 --> 00:25:25,382
of places. Yeah. I know what Ka hawaii

692
00:25:25,382 --> 00:25:26,654
is at the top of the list dearly.

693
00:25:26,893 --> 00:25:29,317
Yeah. Let's talk about the whole Nba

694
00:25:29,771 --> 00:25:32,657
situation with Ka Leonard. He has been removed

695
00:25:32,873 --> 00:25:34,146
over his objection.

696
00:25:34,957 --> 00:25:37,264
From the Us Olympic team. John and I

697
00:25:37,264 --> 00:25:39,412
had debated a couple weeks back that I

698
00:25:39,412 --> 00:25:40,924
don't think he should have ever been allowed

699
00:25:40,924 --> 00:25:42,934
to go you know, this is a guy

700
00:25:42,934 --> 00:25:44,934
that has missed so many games over the

701
00:25:44,934 --> 00:25:46,694
course of his career with the La clippers

702
00:25:46,694 --> 00:25:47,974
and yet he wanted to play.

703
00:25:48,615 --> 00:25:50,075
He took part in 4 practices.

704
00:25:50,709 --> 00:25:52,624
He showed up with a big sleeve and

705
00:25:52,624 --> 00:25:55,496
brace on his injured right knee. First full

706
00:25:55,496 --> 00:25:57,650
practice he did everything they wanted.

707
00:25:58,224 --> 00:26:00,220
By the second practice, he was limp.

708
00:26:01,177 --> 00:26:04,690
Steve Kerr made the decision. He cannot do

709
00:26:04,690 --> 00:26:06,446
what we need to do when we get

710
00:26:06,446 --> 00:26:07,005
into International.

711
00:26:07,818 --> 00:26:07,977
Competition.

712
00:26:09,015 --> 00:26:11,191
They met with Grant Hill, who's the president

713
00:26:11,728 --> 00:26:14,681
of the team Usa. They then talk to

714
00:26:14,681 --> 00:26:15,341
the clippers

715
00:26:15,654 --> 00:26:17,332
I don't think the clippers ever wanted him

716
00:26:17,332 --> 00:26:19,410
to go, and the decision was made to

717
00:26:19,410 --> 00:26:22,047
remove him. You know, he... He openly admitted

718
00:26:22,047 --> 00:26:23,645
up done everything I can to get ready.

719
00:26:24,059 --> 00:26:25,495
He said my knee when I came in

720
00:26:25,495 --> 00:26:28,047
was status quo, which meant he could play

721
00:26:28,047 --> 00:26:28,547
basketball.

722
00:26:29,164 --> 00:26:31,876
1 practice in, he could not play bra

723
00:26:31,876 --> 00:26:34,441
basketball the way it was needed. I think

724
00:26:34,441 --> 00:26:36,588
this puts. I think puts his whole career

725
00:26:36,588 --> 00:26:38,974
in Jeopardy. He's gone through most of this

726
00:26:38,974 --> 00:26:40,962
off season because he missed missed the playoffs,

727
00:26:41,439 --> 00:26:43,529
gone through this whole off season rehab

728
00:26:44,079 --> 00:26:46,397
and he comes up with more problems. I

729
00:26:46,397 --> 00:26:48,874
think his whole career is in real jeopardy.

730
00:26:50,552 --> 00:26:54,242
He has missed 223

731
00:26:54,242 --> 00:26:55,279
games with the clippers.

732
00:26:55,917 --> 00:26:58,231
He has played in only a hundred 87,

733
00:26:58,710 --> 00:27:00,625
over the course of his career. He's miss

734
00:27:00,625 --> 00:27:03,119
half. More than more than half. Wow. He's

735
00:27:03,119 --> 00:27:04,240
missed 282

736
00:27:04,240 --> 00:27:06,880
hundred 23 of 410 games with the clippers.

737
00:27:07,039 --> 00:27:09,119
So I I think he's in big jeopardy.

738
00:27:09,359 --> 00:27:10,420
I think his career

739
00:27:10,974 --> 00:27:13,127
might be starting on downside, and it's not

740
00:27:13,127 --> 00:27:14,962
a negative towards him. It's just a wear

741
00:27:14,962 --> 00:27:17,355
and tear thing. Mh. Yeah. I agree. And

742
00:27:17,355 --> 00:27:19,109
and it's... It's a shame because we all

743
00:27:19,109 --> 00:27:21,200
love Kauai here in San Diego. But you're

744
00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:23,119
right. I mean, even had a lot of

745
00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:24,320
breakdown so when he was playing for the

746
00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:25,839
spur as well. Had a he had a

747
00:27:25,839 --> 00:27:27,599
bad knee injury. He had a quad surgery.

748
00:27:28,014 --> 00:27:30,242
Went to Toronto did really well broke down

749
00:27:30,242 --> 00:27:32,152
there. Has had 3 surgeries on the right

750
00:27:32,152 --> 00:27:34,539
knee alone. Mh. Yeah. So, yeah, the guy's

751
00:27:34,539 --> 00:27:36,788
just injury from. So that's that's where we

752
00:27:36,788 --> 00:27:39,825
are there. Second topic on the table has

753
00:27:39,825 --> 00:27:41,823
to do with the New York Knicks.

754
00:27:42,622 --> 00:27:44,380
We always talk about players.

755
00:27:45,034 --> 00:27:47,911
And contracts and who's doing what and the

756
00:27:47,990 --> 00:27:50,467
Max deals and all that. Mh. Think about

757
00:27:50,467 --> 00:27:52,486
this. His name is Ja B

758
00:27:53,039 --> 00:27:54,957
high scoring guard New York Knicks. They got

759
00:27:54,957 --> 00:27:56,396
him in a trade a couple years ago.

760
00:27:56,795 --> 00:28:00,312
He's really developed into a superstar. He's a

761
00:28:00,312 --> 00:28:02,230
year out from his contract expiring.

762
00:28:02,724 --> 00:28:05,361
He is now eligible for a contract extension.

763
00:28:05,841 --> 00:28:07,679
If he waits till next year when he

764
00:28:07,679 --> 00:28:10,076
a total free agent, he can get it

765
00:28:10,076 --> 00:28:10,715
even bigger,

766
00:28:11,447 --> 00:28:12,958
Max mega contract.

767
00:28:13,754 --> 00:28:16,617
He's gonna take the offer now. Just follow

768
00:28:16,617 --> 00:28:17,515
me with this

769
00:28:18,224 --> 00:28:20,402
he is gonna take a 4 year

770
00:28:20,941 --> 00:28:22,379
156000000

771
00:28:22,379 --> 00:28:24,398
dollar deal. Okay? So that's

772
00:28:24,936 --> 00:28:25,895
40 plus million.

773
00:28:26,709 --> 00:28:28,467
If he sat here and waited until next

774
00:28:28,467 --> 00:28:31,424
year, he's gonna get 5 years 2 69.

775
00:28:32,143 --> 00:28:34,641
He's willing to take a hundred 13000000

776
00:28:34,780 --> 00:28:35,020
discount.

777
00:28:35,993 --> 00:28:36,233
Why?

778
00:28:36,950 --> 00:28:39,581
Well he gets a contract now. He keeps

779
00:28:39,581 --> 00:28:40,958
the knicks under

780
00:28:41,733 --> 00:28:43,567
the first and second apron and with the

781
00:28:43,567 --> 00:28:45,654
salary cap. Which if you if you go

782
00:28:45,654 --> 00:28:47,030
above the apron and you get paralyzed

783
00:28:47,566 --> 00:28:49,478
and how you can construct your roster which

784
00:28:49,478 --> 00:28:51,072
you can pay, which you can't do,

785
00:28:51,883 --> 00:28:54,295
he's gonna take a hundred 13000000 less

786
00:28:54,671 --> 00:28:57,219
to keep the next below the limit, so

787
00:28:57,219 --> 00:28:58,573
he can just go on and have better

788
00:28:58,573 --> 00:29:00,268
players around him And that's kinda fascinating.

789
00:29:00,818 --> 00:29:02,172
It is. I mean, but for him, maybe

790
00:29:02,172 --> 00:29:04,027
it's just a bird in the hand because

791
00:29:04,084 --> 00:29:05,996
you you were commenting in the best 15

792
00:29:05,996 --> 00:29:07,987
about, you know, you know, who was the

793
00:29:07,987 --> 00:29:09,580
player for the... Was that in Nevada went...

794
00:29:09,754 --> 00:29:11,992
To play for Miami. He ended up not

795
00:29:11,992 --> 00:29:14,150
taking the deal in Lost Martin. Kayla Martin.

796
00:29:14,309 --> 00:29:16,227
Yeah. Where am I stealing your thunder here

797
00:29:16,227 --> 00:29:17,746
for the in the headlines. So I see

798
00:29:17,746 --> 00:29:19,758
the heat on there. Yeah. Let's talk about

799
00:29:19,758 --> 00:29:22,416
the lakers situation. Owen 3

800
00:29:22,795 --> 00:29:25,511
in the California classic, the summer league. Now

801
00:29:25,511 --> 00:29:27,444
the whole roster is just... Headed into Las

802
00:29:27,604 --> 00:29:29,841
Vegas. They're gonna start the Las Vegas summer

803
00:29:29,841 --> 00:29:30,001
league.

804
00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:32,319
Ronnie James last night.

805
00:29:33,118 --> 00:29:35,276
Went 2 for 9 first game couldn't play

806
00:29:35,276 --> 00:29:38,551
second game. Played 29 minutes last night? 1

807
00:29:38,551 --> 00:29:38,868
basket.

808
00:29:39,980 --> 00:29:41,329
Do you know what they're saying what the

809
00:29:41,329 --> 00:29:43,155
national writers are Saying Lebron James,

810
00:29:44,124 --> 00:29:46,599
He's a make a wish foundation n nba

811
00:29:46,599 --> 00:29:47,419
a kid

812
00:29:48,276 --> 00:29:50,751
that he doesn't belong. Yeah Yeah. He was

813
00:29:50,751 --> 00:29:54,118
gifted this as a legacy draft pick. I

814
00:29:54,118 --> 00:29:56,991
mean, 1 basket in 29 minutes. Yikes. Yeah.

815
00:29:57,230 --> 00:29:58,826
I mean, he was getting cooked out there

816
00:29:58,826 --> 00:30:00,662
on defense. I thought he was almost breaking

817
00:30:00,662 --> 00:30:01,140
his ankles.

818
00:30:01,872 --> 00:30:03,463
Dalton and Connect had a good bounce back

819
00:30:03,463 --> 00:30:06,008
game, 20 points 9 rebound, hit a couple

820
00:30:06,008 --> 00:30:06,747
of threes

821
00:30:07,122 --> 00:30:09,450
along the way. So, Now the lakers were

822
00:30:09,450 --> 00:30:11,929
a hodgepodge of a roster or just showing

823
00:30:11,929 --> 00:30:15,149
up with Bro James looking, like he's really

824
00:30:15,450 --> 00:30:18,498
overwhelmed. Like... Does not belong. I thought the

825
00:30:18,498 --> 00:30:19,955
make wish foundation

826
00:30:20,412 --> 00:30:22,805
nickname was kinda cruel. Yeah. It was, But,

827
00:30:22,885 --> 00:30:24,640
you know, to see Dawn connect him, He

828
00:30:24,640 --> 00:30:26,568
was legit in that game. I'm mean were

829
00:30:26,568 --> 00:30:28,637
the stats again? 20 points non rebound. Yes.

830
00:30:28,875 --> 00:30:31,501
That's alright. He came back after 2 substandard

831
00:30:31,501 --> 00:30:34,220
game shooting the ball. Miami. But guess who's

832
00:30:34,220 --> 00:30:36,602
playing well for the heat. Ex as. K

833
00:30:36,682 --> 00:30:38,905
Johnson right on. K Johnson,

834
00:30:39,461 --> 00:30:41,606
he went for 13 and 3 in his

835
00:30:41,606 --> 00:30:42,797
first game for Miami.

836
00:30:43,369 --> 00:30:46,086
Last night, 21 points and 8 rebound.

837
00:30:46,645 --> 00:30:48,483
You talk about a guy that might fill

838
00:30:48,483 --> 00:30:51,120
a really special role in Miami.

839
00:30:51,853 --> 00:30:53,837
And a guy who's being taught by a

840
00:30:53,837 --> 00:30:55,583
pretty good coach and Eric ex,

841
00:30:56,059 --> 00:30:58,598
and obviously a great basketball mind in Pat

842
00:30:58,757 --> 00:30:59,075
Riley.

843
00:30:59,789 --> 00:31:00,106
Right.

844
00:31:01,240 --> 00:31:03,240
Situation for the kid did not get drafted

845
00:31:03,240 --> 00:31:06,039
in holy cow. He's had 2 really impressive

846
00:31:06,039 --> 00:31:08,771
games, and it's... Yeah. His college player versus

847
00:31:08,771 --> 00:31:10,682
college players. It's Rookie versus Rookie.

848
00:31:11,318 --> 00:31:13,228
But man, you go you go for 13

849
00:31:13,228 --> 00:31:15,138
and 21 and back to back starts. That's

850
00:31:15,138 --> 00:31:17,150
pretty impressive. For Yeah. I love that. Ke

851
00:31:17,150 --> 00:31:18,910
shot is a great kid Happy for his

852
00:31:18,910 --> 00:31:19,070
success.

853
00:31:20,029 --> 00:31:22,830
We move on. Let's talk about Minnesota. Timber

854
00:31:22,990 --> 00:31:24,590
Was, speaking of Debut,

855
00:31:24,910 --> 00:31:25,309
Friday.

856
00:31:25,963 --> 00:31:28,984
Jaden Led makes his debut, Minnesota Timber. They

857
00:31:28,984 --> 00:31:31,210
played their first game in there in the

858
00:31:31,607 --> 00:31:33,197
Las Vegas summer league,

859
00:31:33,769 --> 00:31:36,086
fascinating canadian to see what what happens when

860
00:31:36,086 --> 00:31:38,004
he lines up against the New Orleans Pe,

861
00:31:38,643 --> 00:31:40,162
playing for a good teacher and a good

862
00:31:40,162 --> 00:31:41,360
coach in Chris Finch,

863
00:31:41,934 --> 00:31:44,167
He's obviously gonna come in and he's gonna

864
00:31:44,167 --> 00:31:46,161
replace Mc daniels who is traded away in

865
00:31:46,161 --> 00:31:48,474
the off season. He gets an opportunity.

866
00:31:49,272 --> 00:31:51,425
1 other unique note, Memphis.

867
00:31:51,920 --> 00:31:53,600
I don't think anybody saw this coming with

868
00:31:53,600 --> 00:31:54,160
a G lease,

869
00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:57,680
Zach Edi in his first game in their

870
00:31:57,680 --> 00:31:58,160
summer league.

871
00:31:59,292 --> 00:32:02,865
14 points 15 rebound 4 assists. Wow. He

872
00:32:02,865 --> 00:32:05,565
was really impressive and at the other end

873
00:32:05,565 --> 00:32:07,391
of the floor whether it was concerned that

874
00:32:07,391 --> 00:32:09,554
he was more like a traffic pile on

875
00:32:09,554 --> 00:32:10,271
could not move.

876
00:32:10,988 --> 00:32:12,104
He made a whole bunch of places had

877
00:32:12,104 --> 00:32:14,596
they get 2 block shots. He changed everybody

878
00:32:14,653 --> 00:32:15,928
as they try to get into the paint.

879
00:32:16,167 --> 00:32:17,521
They weren't getting a shots off in the

880
00:32:17,521 --> 00:32:19,532
paint. So that that was to me. That

881
00:32:19,532 --> 00:32:22,409
was a really impressive start for Zach Edi.

882
00:32:22,808 --> 00:32:24,726
1 other note, and this just happened.

883
00:32:25,938 --> 00:32:26,837
Nathan Men

884
00:32:27,215 --> 00:32:29,449
has shown up in San Antonio. Mh. He

885
00:32:29,449 --> 00:32:30,507

886
00:32:31,124 --> 00:32:33,212
gee league contract with Charlotte played a little

887
00:32:33,212 --> 00:32:34,407
bit at the end of the season with

888
00:32:34,407 --> 00:32:35,761
the hornets, was not offered,

889
00:32:36,717 --> 00:32:37,456

892
00:32:43,509 --> 00:32:45,109
and I don't know, 10 or 12 minutes.

893
00:32:45,910 --> 00:32:46,950
That's new kid,

894
00:32:47,829 --> 00:32:51,041
right teaching situation, where Greg Pop, Isn't that

895
00:32:51,041 --> 00:32:52,793
interesting? Mh. Yeah. I love it. I mean,

896
00:32:52,952 --> 00:32:54,784
all these aspects are finding jobs all around

897
00:32:54,784 --> 00:32:56,616
the league. This is terrific. I saw it

898
00:32:56,616 --> 00:32:58,369
was it... Is it Carson Cook, who is

899
00:32:58,369 --> 00:32:59,165
the photographer?

900
00:32:59,499 --> 00:33:00,775
For the aztec text. I think he was

901
00:33:00,775 --> 00:33:02,769
at 1 of those games in Vegas. Saw

902
00:33:02,929 --> 00:33:04,763
Nathan. You know, wearing in the spur jersey,

903
00:33:04,923 --> 00:33:06,837
got the photo of them posted on Twitter.

904
00:33:06,997 --> 00:33:08,592
It's, you know, Ast technician was loving that.

905
00:33:08,751 --> 00:33:11,164
Kids getting opportunity. Mh. And we'll see again,

906
00:33:11,404 --> 00:33:12,625
that's a unique

907
00:33:13,644 --> 00:33:15,964
organization and atmosphere to play and learn in.

908
00:33:16,285 --> 00:33:18,699
So those are the latest basketball topics. You

909
00:33:18,699 --> 00:33:19,518
agree or disagree

910
00:33:20,057 --> 00:33:23,493
is Ka leonard about to journey into borrowed

911
00:33:23,493 --> 00:33:25,891
time. Do you think his career is now

912
00:33:25,891 --> 00:33:27,740
threatened join us on fans form if you're

913
00:33:27,740 --> 00:33:30,065
an Nba basketball fan or you wanna comment

914
00:33:30,279 --> 00:33:32,740
on what Ja B is evidently about to

915
00:33:32,740 --> 00:33:34,979
do with the New York Knicks take give

916
00:33:34,979 --> 00:33:37,053
up a hundred 13000000 so they can stay

917
00:33:37,053 --> 00:33:38,648
below the cap. We don't see that from

918
00:33:38,648 --> 00:33:41,441
hardly anybody else in the Nba from hoops.

919
00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:44,320
Let's go talk Nfl football. Yeah. Nfl football,

920
00:33:44,559 --> 00:33:46,308
we're talking stadiums and a lot of other

921
00:33:46,308 --> 00:33:48,694
things going on. Yeah. Let's just run through

922
00:33:48,694 --> 00:33:48,932
this,

923
00:33:50,205 --> 00:33:52,284
go We talked about the Kansas City Chiefs

924
00:33:52,364 --> 00:33:55,619
Arrowhead stadium, The proposal raised money for the

925
00:33:55,619 --> 00:33:57,684
renovation of Arrowhead was voted down soundly.

926
00:33:58,573 --> 00:34:00,164
By Kansas city voters.

927
00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:03,130
The state of Kansas across the line

928
00:34:03,505 --> 00:34:06,153
has come up with funding to build a

929
00:34:06,210 --> 00:34:07,973
football stadium for the chiefs and take him

930
00:34:07,973 --> 00:34:09,242
out of Missouri and put it on the

931
00:34:09,242 --> 00:34:10,432
other side of the state line.

932
00:34:11,305 --> 00:34:13,789
Now the Missouri State legislature yesterday,

933
00:34:14,815 --> 00:34:16,735
announced they are going to come up with

934
00:34:16,735 --> 00:34:17,875
a new proposal

935
00:34:18,175 --> 00:34:20,434
and put a new item on the ballot

936
00:34:20,815 --> 00:34:22,355
in the upcoming elections

937
00:34:23,229 --> 00:34:24,425
to revisit funding.

938
00:34:25,063 --> 00:34:26,818
They're gonna do it differently. I don't have

939
00:34:26,818 --> 00:34:28,652
the details how it's gonna be done, but

940
00:34:28,652 --> 00:34:31,305
it's gonna be a city county

941
00:34:31,921 --> 00:34:32,421
state

942
00:34:33,054 --> 00:34:34,034
funding project

943
00:34:34,734 --> 00:34:36,734
to keep the chiefs in the state of

944
00:34:36,974 --> 00:34:38,514
Missouri. So the legislature

945
00:34:38,815 --> 00:34:41,534
is about to do that. A Houston T.

946
00:34:42,509 --> 00:34:42,986
Hurricane.

947
00:34:44,499 --> 00:34:46,331
All that wind. Oh, yeah. All that rain.

948
00:34:46,888 --> 00:34:48,719
Tore off a couple of panels of the

949
00:34:48,719 --> 00:34:50,550
roof of Rng g stadium.

950
00:34:51,043 --> 00:34:53,514
Pretty significant damage. The roof did not collapse.

951
00:34:54,311 --> 00:34:56,065
It's the second time in the history of

952
00:34:56,065 --> 00:34:56,884
that stadium

953
00:34:57,340 --> 00:34:59,824
that they've had problems with panels on the

954
00:34:59,824 --> 00:35:01,974
roof being badly damaged by a hurricane.

955
00:35:02,451 --> 00:35:05,476
Luckily nobody was inside when this happened. I

956
00:35:05,476 --> 00:35:07,784
saw the pictures of 2 different panels, really

957
00:35:07,784 --> 00:35:10,190
big panels. The that were... That ripped off,

958
00:35:10,349 --> 00:35:12,104
so they've they've got construction there.

959
00:35:13,380 --> 00:35:15,215
There's a terrible story in Cleveland with the

960
00:35:15,215 --> 00:35:15,534
browns.

961
00:35:16,172 --> 00:35:18,086
Bernie Ko our legendary quarterback.

962
00:35:18,739 --> 00:35:21,148
Back in the hospital. You know, his career

963
00:35:21,204 --> 00:35:24,385
was ended prematurely by injuries, most notably concussion.

964
00:35:25,419 --> 00:35:28,281
He is now in need of a liver

965
00:35:28,281 --> 00:35:31,403
trans plant. He's on a national transplant list

966
00:35:31,403 --> 00:35:33,954
to get him help, and he's now been

967
00:35:33,954 --> 00:35:35,888
diagnosed with severe Parkinson's

968
00:35:36,599 --> 00:35:38,590
all this the end result of a lot

969
00:35:38,590 --> 00:35:41,162
of concussion. So Bernie Ko are in not

970
00:35:41,459 --> 00:35:42,176
not good health,

971
00:35:43,052 --> 00:35:43,530
right now.

972
00:35:44,261 --> 00:35:47,122
Carolina Panthers. This a really bad story.

973
00:35:47,679 --> 00:35:50,380
They've just fired their director of player personnel,

974
00:35:50,460 --> 00:35:52,739
a guy who would played Nfl name is

975
00:35:53,500 --> 00:35:54,000
Adrian,

976
00:35:55,420 --> 00:35:56,699
when I think Hey. I wrote it down

977
00:35:56,699 --> 00:35:57,659
here I can't I recall it.

978
00:35:58,940 --> 00:36:01,820
Adrian Wilson. Mh. 1 time safety. Arizona Cardinals.

979
00:36:02,473 --> 00:36:04,867
Retired, nice career, stand up guy,

980
00:36:05,505 --> 00:36:08,298
player rep. And anyhow became player personal director,

981
00:36:08,697 --> 00:36:10,941
Carolina Panthers. He had Ant was involved in

982
00:36:10,941 --> 00:36:13,979
an incident on June first, John, in which

983
00:36:14,431 --> 00:36:16,731
there was a terrible domestic abuse incident in

984
00:36:16,731 --> 00:36:19,370
his home in Arizona, but he assaulted his

985
00:36:19,370 --> 00:36:22,719
wife choked her. He pulled a gun, threatened

986
00:36:22,719 --> 00:36:24,952
her, walked out of the house, threatened to

987
00:36:24,952 --> 00:36:26,865
kill himself, was arrested.

988
00:36:27,438 --> 00:36:30,621
He's obviously had some type of mental issue

989
00:36:30,621 --> 00:36:31,735
that has flare.

990
00:36:32,293 --> 00:36:34,521
He just got fired by the Carolina Panthers.

991
00:36:35,411 --> 00:36:37,315
But he had been arrested June first for

992
00:36:37,315 --> 00:36:38,530
a very, very bad

993
00:36:38,903 --> 00:36:41,681
incident. Packed 12 Conference. Let's talk college Wood

994
00:36:41,681 --> 00:36:43,586
football. Everybody's holding their media days,

995
00:36:44,873 --> 00:36:45,929
pack 12 conference

996
00:36:46,543 --> 00:36:47,417
actually pack 2.

997
00:36:48,292 --> 00:36:50,280
They had a cocktail hour. They didn't have

998
00:36:50,280 --> 00:36:51,949
a media day because the only schools in

999
00:36:51,949 --> 00:36:54,907
the conference are oregon state wash state. What

1000
00:36:54,907 --> 00:36:56,895
they did in Las Vegas was they... They

1001
00:36:56,895 --> 00:36:59,997
had a cocktail hour with the new commissioner,

1002
00:37:00,649 --> 00:37:03,041
It was sandwiched in between the big 12

1003
00:37:03,041 --> 00:37:05,671
conference media days and the Mountain West Conference

1004
00:37:05,671 --> 00:37:06,309
media night.

1005
00:37:07,186 --> 00:37:09,020
So all the national media came and met...

1006
00:37:09,275 --> 00:37:10,875
Met the new commissioner and talked to the

1007
00:37:10,875 --> 00:37:12,894
2 coaches of the Beaver and the Cougar

1008
00:37:13,034 --> 00:37:14,474
and kinda got a game plan of what

1009
00:37:14,474 --> 00:37:15,614
is about to happen

1010
00:37:16,155 --> 00:37:16,875
with the pack 2.

1011
00:37:17,847 --> 00:37:19,065
There is a rumor

1012
00:37:19,443 --> 00:37:20,798
coming out of the East Coast because the

1013
00:37:21,038 --> 00:37:23,112
Atlantic Coast Conference is in trouble.

1014
00:37:23,670 --> 00:37:26,461
With Florida state, Cl and lawsuits might break

1015
00:37:26,461 --> 00:37:26,621
up.

1016
00:37:27,432 --> 00:37:29,738
The Call Stanford might have made a mistake.

1017
00:37:30,373 --> 00:37:32,122
And they have an opt out language that

1018
00:37:32,122 --> 00:37:33,655
they could leave the Acc

1019
00:37:34,268 --> 00:37:35,778
and come back to the West Coast.

1020
00:37:36,510 --> 00:37:38,849
So if Call Stanford in 2 years time

1021
00:37:39,389 --> 00:37:40,029
comes back,

1022
00:37:40,670 --> 00:37:42,269
now the pack 2 becomes a pack 4,

1023
00:37:43,069 --> 00:37:44,724
which means you only need to go get

1024
00:37:44,844 --> 00:37:46,619
4 teams from the Mountain West

1025
00:37:47,155 --> 00:37:49,146
make it an 18 conference, which is the

1026
00:37:49,146 --> 00:37:51,617
blueprint that the commissioner wants to operate under.

1027
00:37:52,269 --> 00:37:55,136
So by this time in 20 26, we

1028
00:37:55,136 --> 00:37:56,888
might be talking about the Aztec and Boise

1029
00:37:57,047 --> 00:37:59,516
State, Fresno and maybe Un l be in

1030
00:37:59,516 --> 00:38:00,552
the 4 that leave.

1031
00:38:01,124 --> 00:38:02,396
And they wouldn't have to pay an exit

1032
00:38:02,396 --> 00:38:04,067
fee because the Tv contracts would be over,

1033
00:38:04,465 --> 00:38:06,953
they could leave and join the 4

1034
00:38:07,328 --> 00:38:07,806
left,

1035
00:38:08,618 --> 00:38:10,694
if Cow and Stanford come back from the

1036
00:38:10,774 --> 00:38:14,606
Adc. That's fascinating story. And Mountain West conference,

1037
00:38:15,404 --> 00:38:17,240
absolute insult of San Diego state.

1038
00:38:17,892 --> 00:38:19,661
Not 1 player

1039
00:38:20,034 --> 00:38:22,572
picked on the Mountain West conference pre season,

1040
00:38:23,048 --> 00:38:24,000
all conference team,

1041
00:38:25,128 --> 00:38:27,938
and the aztec were picked to finish eighth

1042
00:38:28,315 --> 00:38:31,501
Mh in the conference. Now I understand, and

1043
00:38:31,661 --> 00:38:33,429
I wouldn't last night, and I looked at

1044
00:38:33,429 --> 00:38:36,138
the complete roster of San Diego state, and

1045
00:38:36,138 --> 00:38:38,847
it's got something like 31 transfers now because

1046
00:38:38,847 --> 00:38:40,440
they had 40 kids who went into the

1047
00:38:40,440 --> 00:38:41,157
transfer portal.

1048
00:38:42,289 --> 00:38:44,449
I understand you don't recognize most of these

1049
00:38:44,449 --> 00:38:45,650
names. You don't understand it.

1050
00:38:46,929 --> 00:38:49,329
But how do you not realize what Sean

1051
00:38:49,409 --> 00:38:50,210
Lewis did?

1052
00:38:50,944 --> 00:38:53,976
At Bowling Green at Syracuse with offense and

1053
00:38:53,976 --> 00:38:55,411
what he did a Kent state as a

1054
00:38:55,411 --> 00:38:57,906
head coach. And what he did early on

1055
00:38:58,298 --> 00:39:01,005
before the injuries wiped out Colorado offensive. How

1056
00:39:01,005 --> 00:39:02,439
do you not pay any attention to who

1057
00:39:02,439 --> 00:39:05,146
this coach is, and what's on video and

1058
00:39:05,146 --> 00:39:07,707
the numbers that they posted every place he's

1059
00:39:07,707 --> 00:39:08,025
been,

1060
00:39:08,899 --> 00:39:09,399
including

1061
00:39:09,853 --> 00:39:12,236
the pac 12 conference on offense. Tough.

1062
00:39:13,269 --> 00:39:14,540
I think San Diego states it's gonna be

1063
00:39:14,540 --> 00:39:16,941
in grudge mode. Every it kinda bothers me

1064
00:39:16,941 --> 00:39:19,248
because there's been a good program since 2010.

1065
00:39:19,407 --> 00:39:21,475
Thank you, Brady Hoc rock long, Brady H.

1066
00:39:21,634 --> 00:39:21,952
Mh.

1067
00:39:22,509 --> 00:39:24,235
I just don't think everybody's paying attention who

1068
00:39:24,354 --> 00:39:26,266
John Lewis, and what is accomplished. So, John,

1069
00:39:26,425 --> 00:39:27,620
I threw a lot of a lot of

1070
00:39:27,620 --> 00:39:29,611
football up on the board go ahead. Well,

1071
00:39:30,169 --> 00:39:31,364
god. I don't even know where to start

1072
00:39:31,364 --> 00:39:32,319
with all this. I mean, first of all

1073
00:39:32,399 --> 00:39:34,802
I love the cocktail hour. Idea. Especially in

1074
00:39:34,961 --> 00:39:37,109
Vegas, and and you got Cougar and beaver

1075
00:39:37,109 --> 00:39:39,018
and cocktails. It just all fits. Oh it's

1076
00:39:39,018 --> 00:39:39,416
really good.

1077
00:39:41,181 --> 00:39:44,279
The the the story about Kansas city chiefs.

1078
00:39:44,517 --> 00:39:47,297
And, you know, if if they... It's 1

1079
00:39:47,297 --> 00:39:48,910
thing if your team leaves

1080
00:39:49,458 --> 00:39:51,924
Cleveland and goes to Baltimore. That's horrible. You

1081
00:39:51,924 --> 00:39:53,674
know, if they leaves Baltimore and Ghosts to

1082
00:39:54,072 --> 00:39:56,538
Indianapolis. But if your team is just going

1083
00:39:56,538 --> 00:39:58,383
across the river, you know, you know, for

1084
00:39:58,383 --> 00:40:00,853
the games to Kansas, the fans still have

1085
00:40:00,853 --> 00:40:03,962
a team local? So why are the politicians

1086
00:40:03,962 --> 00:40:05,849
so hungry to keep them. Is it, you

1087
00:40:06,048 --> 00:40:06,286
just...

1088
00:40:06,922 --> 00:40:09,066
Is it like a revenue generator in tax

1089
00:40:09,066 --> 00:40:11,369
dollars? It is. Yeah. Because it's big business,

1090
00:40:11,528 --> 00:40:13,276
and it's gonna be a new stadium, and

1091
00:40:13,276 --> 00:40:14,125
it's gonna be

1092
00:40:14,641 --> 00:40:17,824
chiefs court and everything around their business developments

1093
00:40:17,824 --> 00:40:19,893
and it will raise money sales tax money,

1094
00:40:20,211 --> 00:40:22,938
etcetera. And all so a pride and emotional

1095
00:40:22,938 --> 00:40:24,936
thing, and we don't wanna lose this franchise

1096
00:40:24,936 --> 00:40:28,233
because this franchise is really great. Mh. But

1097
00:40:28,372 --> 00:40:30,370
so that's the proposal. It's it's gonna be

1098
00:40:30,370 --> 00:40:32,381
taken over by the state to come up

1099
00:40:32,381 --> 00:40:33,179
with the financing,

1100
00:40:33,817 --> 00:40:36,210
not not just a city and Jackson county

1101
00:40:36,210 --> 00:40:37,805
vote. It will be a state of Missouri

1102
00:40:37,805 --> 00:40:39,719
thing, which is a pride thing. And, of

1103
00:40:39,719 --> 00:40:40,916
course, at the other end of the state,

1104
00:40:41,727 --> 00:40:42,386
they forever

1105
00:40:43,078 --> 00:40:45,543
are angry about losing the Saint Louis Rams

1106
00:40:45,543 --> 00:40:47,132
when they did everything that was needed. And

1107
00:40:47,132 --> 00:40:48,325
that's why they got the payment from the

1108
00:40:48,722 --> 00:40:51,128
Nfl. When k refused to go to the

1109
00:40:51,128 --> 00:40:53,121
table and negotiate and the Nfl gave him,

1110
00:40:53,600 --> 00:40:56,151
I don't know. 800 some million dollars in

1111
00:40:56,151 --> 00:40:57,746
damages after they filed suit.

1112
00:40:58,398 --> 00:41:00,940
Over the Ram transfer. So some Missouri could

1113
00:41:00,940 --> 00:41:02,688
have gone from 2 Nfl teams to none.

1114
00:41:03,244 --> 00:41:05,151
So that's, yeah. That that's... I get that.

1115
00:41:05,643 --> 00:41:07,868
That's where we are in football. Last topic

1116
00:41:07,868 --> 00:41:10,252
on the table, as I would say, off

1117
00:41:10,252 --> 00:41:11,921
the high speed sports wire. Yeah. Here we

1118
00:41:11,921 --> 00:41:13,590
go. High speed sports where a lot of

1119
00:41:13,590 --> 00:41:15,838
auto racing. So. Let me... Let's talk about

1120
00:41:16,077 --> 00:41:19,034
National Hot Rod Association. 3 weeks ago, John

1121
00:41:19,273 --> 00:41:21,885
Force, Hall of Fame driver, Drag racer. Yeah

1122
00:41:22,401 --> 00:41:25,206
involved in a horrific crash. His his

1123
00:41:25,739 --> 00:41:26,239
drags

1124
00:41:26,693 --> 00:41:28,760
exploded of the finish line at 300 miles

1125
00:41:28,760 --> 00:41:29,236
an hour,

1126
00:41:29,888 --> 00:41:33,072
hit 2 walls. The entire vehicle was engulfed

1127
00:41:33,072 --> 00:41:33,709
in flames.

1128
00:41:34,425 --> 00:41:37,451
Credit to Hr and racing, the integrity,

1129
00:41:38,103 --> 00:41:40,335
of of the drag racer held in place.

1130
00:41:41,690 --> 00:41:45,117
He he suffered significant internal injuries from the

1131
00:41:45,117 --> 00:41:47,124
violence of the crash. She did not get

1132
00:41:47,124 --> 00:41:48,023
badly burned

1133
00:41:48,718 --> 00:41:50,311
because of the fire suits and the helmets,

1134
00:41:50,630 --> 00:41:51,506
etcetera. However,

1135
00:41:51,984 --> 00:41:54,704
he suffered brain damage. He's been an Icu

1136
00:41:54,704 --> 00:41:55,999
in a trauma unit

1137
00:41:56,612 --> 00:41:58,917
in Virginia for 3 weeks. He was just

1138
00:41:58,917 --> 00:42:00,506
transferred via private plane.

1139
00:42:01,318 --> 00:42:03,551
To California has gone in a rehab center.

1140
00:42:03,710 --> 00:42:04,689
He has massive

1141
00:42:05,306 --> 00:42:07,458
memory loss, but he's alive.

1142
00:42:07,937 --> 00:42:10,090
He does have use of his limbs, etcetera.

1143
00:42:10,503 --> 00:42:13,038
But there is some brain trauma. Mh. But

1144
00:42:13,038 --> 00:42:15,890
they saved his life. So John Force, I

1145
00:42:15,890 --> 00:42:18,047
don't think he'll ever race again, but he's

1146
00:42:18,047 --> 00:42:19,641
alive and he... He was able to actually

1147
00:42:19,641 --> 00:42:22,509
to walk out of the cockpit of that

1148
00:42:22,509 --> 00:42:23,784
drag racer. I don't know if you've seen

1149
00:42:23,784 --> 00:42:26,094
the video. You gotta gotta find it. Mh.

1150
00:42:26,333 --> 00:42:26,891
It's just Google,

1151
00:42:27,383 --> 00:42:30,428
John 4 str racing crash. You won't believe

1152
00:42:30,723 --> 00:42:32,473
how bad it was and how he walked

1153
00:42:32,473 --> 00:42:35,256
away from it. And you. It absolutely stunning.

1154
00:42:36,387 --> 00:42:38,222
Let's talk about the the next topic on

1155
00:42:38,222 --> 00:42:38,700
the table.

1156
00:42:39,498 --> 00:42:42,311
A lot of controversy in Formula 1. Max

1157
00:42:42,369 --> 00:42:44,443
step continues to drop hints that he doesn't

1158
00:42:44,443 --> 00:42:46,611
like the way things are going and he

1159
00:42:46,611 --> 00:42:47,169
might leave.

1160
00:42:47,807 --> 00:42:49,481
And, I mean, it's hard to believe that

1161
00:42:49,481 --> 00:42:51,735
red red Bull has totally dominated

1162
00:42:52,431 --> 00:42:54,367
formula 1, and they're talking

1163
00:42:54,679 --> 00:42:57,144
and he might leave and they're upset with

1164
00:42:57,144 --> 00:42:59,292
the way he's handled races the second half

1165
00:42:59,292 --> 00:43:01,519
of the season because people have caught up

1166
00:43:01,519 --> 00:43:02,792
to him lewis Hamilton beat him,

1167
00:43:03,523 --> 00:43:05,039
Lando Norris beat him.

1168
00:43:05,996 --> 00:43:07,990
And suddenly, he's not the dominant guy and

1169
00:43:07,990 --> 00:43:09,744
they're not the dominant team and some people

1170
00:43:09,744 --> 00:43:11,420
are kind of barking about that, and they

1171
00:43:11,420 --> 00:43:12,776
think he's become a distraction.

1172
00:43:13,508 --> 00:43:15,503
Should I go? Should I stay? What are

1173
00:43:15,503 --> 00:43:17,975
you doing? He's at accidents? He's he's been

1174
00:43:17,975 --> 00:43:19,592
involved in controversial hits

1175
00:43:20,527 --> 00:43:23,135
on the track with other drivers racing for

1176
00:43:23,333 --> 00:43:24,286
corners, etcetera.

1177
00:43:24,842 --> 00:43:27,065
So suddenly, he's just having a really, really

1178
00:43:27,065 --> 00:43:27,620
tough time.

1179
00:43:28,732 --> 00:43:30,796
Next topic on the table. And there's there's

1180
00:43:30,796 --> 00:43:33,035
just an awful lot here, to discuss.

1181
00:43:33,910 --> 00:43:37,329
This involves another driver, Lando Norris. He's catching

1182
00:43:37,329 --> 00:43:38,045
a lot of heat.

1183
00:43:38,760 --> 00:43:41,385
He looked like he was gonna drive himself

1184
00:43:41,385 --> 00:43:41,623
back.

1185
00:43:42,594 --> 00:43:44,133
Into the f 1

1186
00:43:44,512 --> 00:43:46,690
points championship because he's placed

1187
00:43:47,069 --> 00:43:49,067
up, near know, the top a lot, and

1188
00:43:49,067 --> 00:43:50,925
he's won some races beaten ver

1189
00:43:51,639 --> 00:43:54,036
He got criticized this week that he's taken

1190
00:43:54,036 --> 00:43:54,755
too many risks.

1191
00:43:55,315 --> 00:43:57,712
He's leaving too many victories out there because

1192
00:43:57,712 --> 00:44:00,122
he's doing stupid things on the track. I

1193
00:44:00,122 --> 00:44:02,032
want him to dial it down. He says,

1194
00:44:02,191 --> 00:44:03,623
I can't do that. I have to drive

1195
00:44:03,623 --> 00:44:04,282
the vehicle

1196
00:44:04,975 --> 00:44:06,407
etcetera. So there's there's a little bit of

1197
00:44:06,407 --> 00:44:07,283
controversy there.

1198
00:44:08,078 --> 00:44:08,317
Golf.

1199
00:44:09,048 --> 00:44:09,685
Ryder cup.

1200
00:44:10,641 --> 00:44:12,632
Tiger Woods was offered the captain c for

1201
00:44:12,632 --> 00:44:15,499
the ryder cup, turned it down. Tiger is

1202
00:44:15,499 --> 00:44:19,038
spending what he says enormous amounts of time

1203
00:44:19,331 --> 00:44:22,029
in the merger talks between the Pga and

1204
00:44:22,029 --> 00:44:22,822
the L iv.

1205
00:44:23,298 --> 00:44:23,798
Evidently,

1206
00:44:24,648 --> 00:44:27,960
tiger carries great credibility at the negotiating table

1207
00:44:28,340 --> 00:44:30,820
with the private investment fund of Saudi Arabia,

1208
00:44:30,980 --> 00:44:33,059
which is gonna pay 3000000000 dollars if this

1209
00:44:33,059 --> 00:44:33,860
merger goes through.

1210
00:44:34,513 --> 00:44:36,026
Tiger said I don't have the time to

1211
00:44:36,026 --> 00:44:38,656
be the ryder Cup captains. That chose good

1212
00:44:38,656 --> 00:44:39,692
guy Keegan Bradley,

1213
00:44:40,170 --> 00:44:40,966
Longtime Pro.

1214
00:44:41,539 --> 00:44:43,456
The guy that didn't get chosen. I know

1215
00:44:43,456 --> 00:44:44,495
was brought up for a vote,

1216
00:44:45,214 --> 00:44:45,933
Phil Mick.

1217
00:44:46,652 --> 00:44:48,490
He seemed to be the hot candidate.

1218
00:44:48,983 --> 00:44:51,710
To become the historical ryder Cup captain

1219
00:44:52,323 --> 00:44:53,675
because an extra ryder cup is gonna be

1220
00:44:53,675 --> 00:44:55,902
a pet page bat Beth page Black on

1221
00:44:56,061 --> 00:44:56,799
Long Island

1222
00:44:57,349 --> 00:44:58,148
phil Mick won.

1223
00:44:58,947 --> 00:44:59,826
He was voted down.

1224
00:45:00,625 --> 00:45:02,223
Was voted down by the players on the

1225
00:45:02,223 --> 00:45:04,401
tour policy board, why, L.

1226
00:45:05,034 --> 00:45:06,954
He was the first that went. Yeah. And

1227
00:45:06,954 --> 00:45:08,394
he was in 1 who's was making phone

1228
00:45:08,394 --> 00:45:09,195
calls to guys.

1229
00:45:09,835 --> 00:45:10,394
Come join me.

1230
00:45:11,195 --> 00:45:13,994
Yes. You might violate your tour policy card.

1231
00:45:14,248 --> 00:45:16,944
Come join me. Mh. Players put their foot

1232
00:45:16,944 --> 00:45:19,560
down or pound on the table, said, no.

1233
00:45:19,956 --> 00:45:22,192
We don't want phil Mick. And so there

1234
00:45:22,192 --> 00:45:24,335
is still a lot of bad blood between

1235
00:45:24,335 --> 00:45:26,239
the guys on the Pga tour that stayed

1236
00:45:26,239 --> 00:45:28,382
loyal and the guys who took the money

1237
00:45:28,382 --> 00:45:30,465
and disappeared. Off the feast of the year.

1238
00:45:30,704 --> 00:45:33,414
So that's interesting. And last topic on the

1239
00:45:33,414 --> 00:45:33,732
table,

1240
00:45:34,290 --> 00:45:36,942
the hockey team in town San Diego goals

1241
00:45:37,173 --> 00:45:39,402
they just released the American Hockey league schedule.

1242
00:45:39,959 --> 00:45:42,505
Somebody needs to explain me why this happens.

1243
00:45:43,063 --> 00:45:44,813
The goals are gonna open with 2 games

1244
00:45:44,813 --> 00:45:46,405
on the road in the American Hockey League.

1245
00:45:46,659 --> 00:45:48,328
In Toronto against the Marley,

1246
00:45:49,043 --> 00:45:51,530
maple leafs top team. Well, you always play

1247
00:45:52,063 --> 00:45:53,731
back to back games on the road when

1248
00:45:53,731 --> 00:45:55,812
you travel out of the division in In

1249
00:45:55,812 --> 00:45:57,479
a, last year, they played back to back

1250
00:45:57,479 --> 00:46:00,177
games in Milwaukee. So anyhow they open with

1251
00:46:00,177 --> 00:46:02,900
the Toronto Marley. Great. Come home

1252
00:46:03,288 --> 00:46:05,590
with the Ko coachella Valley fire that's her

1253
00:46:05,590 --> 00:46:07,891
home opener or a mid October. I think

1254
00:46:07,891 --> 00:46:10,034
it's October twelfth to thirteenth of Friday night.

1255
00:46:11,004 --> 00:46:14,041
That's okay. Coachella Allies top teen Pacific Division

1256
00:46:14,041 --> 00:46:16,038
went went to the A nhl finals before

1257
00:46:16,038 --> 00:46:17,317
they lost to Hershey.

1258
00:46:18,036 --> 00:46:18,915
Then they go on the road.

1259
00:46:19,568 --> 00:46:21,958
They placed 7 of their first 8 away

1260
00:46:21,958 --> 00:46:24,827
from home. Oh, wow. Just a brutal schedule,

1261
00:46:25,226 --> 00:46:26,204
and the complicated.

1262
00:46:27,234 --> 00:46:29,150
We talked briefly about this. This has been

1263
00:46:29,150 --> 00:46:30,528
an a unbelievably

1264
00:46:30,986 --> 00:46:32,423
busy July and hockey.

1265
00:46:33,061 --> 00:46:35,696
Mc go, a aka the Anaheim Ducks parent

1266
00:46:35,696 --> 00:46:35,856
team.

1267
00:46:36,668 --> 00:46:39,930
Have lost 5 of their top veteran players

1268
00:46:39,930 --> 00:46:41,441
have now left the team to go to

1269
00:46:41,441 --> 00:46:42,555
other Nhl clubs,

1270
00:46:43,192 --> 00:46:46,070
and other A nhl contracts. And then not

1271
00:46:46,070 --> 00:46:48,135
replaced any of them with established guys.

1272
00:46:48,691 --> 00:46:49,883
I don't know what kind of team they're

1273
00:46:49,883 --> 00:46:50,836
gonna have on the ice.

1274
00:46:51,551 --> 00:46:52,902
They get they're gonna be young. There's no

1275
00:46:52,902 --> 00:46:54,985
doubt about it, but... When you let 5

1276
00:46:54,985 --> 00:46:58,572
of your best players, your your oldest most

1277
00:46:58,572 --> 00:47:02,093
experienced guys go and don't keep them. And

1278
00:47:02,093 --> 00:47:04,483
they've not res resigned Chase leo. They're captain

1279
00:47:04,483 --> 00:47:06,952
yet either. So there's all kinds of problems

1280
00:47:06,952 --> 00:47:09,125
with with the ducks handling

1281
00:47:09,580 --> 00:47:10,616
of Goals hockey.

1282
00:47:11,029 --> 00:47:12,708
And I'm biased because I'm a big hockey

1283
00:47:12,708 --> 00:47:15,025
guy. I saw John pounding on the glass

1284
00:47:15,025 --> 00:47:17,103
sitting next to the blonde behind the penalty

1285
00:47:17,103 --> 00:47:19,021
box on a Friday night drinking and beer

1286
00:47:19,021 --> 00:47:20,814
and watching puck. But

1287
00:47:21,273 --> 00:47:22,791
the Ducks got do a better job taking

1288
00:47:22,791 --> 00:47:25,029
here of American Hockey league franchise. I'm the

1289
00:47:25,029 --> 00:47:27,426
only 1 in town that's screaming about what

1290
00:47:27,426 --> 00:47:29,079
the ducks are doing in Anaheim because all

1291
00:47:29,199 --> 00:47:31,111
that has an impact on what happens to

1292
00:47:31,111 --> 00:47:33,900
the San Diego goals. John, you can respond

1293
00:47:33,900 --> 00:47:35,334
to any of those topics on the table.

1294
00:47:35,493 --> 00:47:37,326
Well, I just a question about the the

1295
00:47:37,326 --> 00:47:39,173
minor league hockey. Because I I... That think

1296
00:47:39,173 --> 00:47:41,722
baseball terms. So... Because the have Aaa is

1297
00:47:41,722 --> 00:47:44,293
is regional. Right? Is Hockey

1298
00:47:44,909 --> 00:47:47,480
Aaa to call it that. Is it nationwide

1299
00:47:47,537 --> 00:47:49,468
or is there 2 different leaks. No. There's

1300
00:47:49,468 --> 00:47:51,546
30 teams in the American Oc league. Okay.

1301
00:47:51,706 --> 00:47:53,863
So it's a nat. They're traveling cross country.

1302
00:47:54,103 --> 00:47:56,341
Well, no... Out here because I started the

1303
00:47:56,581 --> 00:47:59,233
Pacific division, There's there's 9 teams in the

1304
00:47:59,472 --> 00:48:01,790
Pacific division, they play each other a bunch.

1305
00:48:02,030 --> 00:48:03,068
Mh. But then,

1306
00:48:03,708 --> 00:48:06,185
you know, tucson in their Bakersfield in there.

1307
00:48:08,516 --> 00:48:10,591
A couple Western Canada teams are in there.

1308
00:48:11,309 --> 00:48:13,166
But then they do play

1309
00:48:13,624 --> 00:48:15,794
a couple of teams and other divisions. They'll

1310
00:48:15,794 --> 00:48:17,949
play the Toronto Marley for 2 up there.

1311
00:48:18,587 --> 00:48:20,901
Somebody from that division will come here and

1312
00:48:20,901 --> 00:48:23,056
play 2 games in San Diego. Mh. So

1313
00:48:23,056 --> 00:48:24,823
there are... There's a total of 17 games

1314
00:48:24,823 --> 00:48:26,892
on the schedule up, but I think maybe

1315
00:48:26,892 --> 00:48:29,359
62 of the 70 are in the Pacific

1316
00:48:29,359 --> 00:48:31,507
division, and then you cross over, you, you

1317
00:48:31,507 --> 00:48:33,514
play the Dallas Stars top... Farm Club in

1318
00:48:33,674 --> 00:48:35,991
Texas, the Texas stars. You might play the

1319
00:48:36,151 --> 00:48:36,950
Milwaukee admiral Mer.

1320
00:48:37,749 --> 00:48:39,907
You're obviously gonna play the Marley. So... But

1321
00:48:39,907 --> 00:48:41,106
the bulk of it is is in the

1322
00:48:41,346 --> 00:48:44,222
Pacific division, There's 1 A nhl team for

1323
00:48:44,222 --> 00:48:47,157
every Nhl team. Mh. And the ducks for

1324
00:48:47,157 --> 00:48:47,474
example,

1325
00:48:48,108 --> 00:48:49,932
they pay all the expenses.

1326
00:48:50,504 --> 00:48:52,179
Of the players they put here. They pay

1327
00:48:52,179 --> 00:48:55,052
the operations what I was wondering. Yeah. Because

1328
00:48:55,052 --> 00:48:57,286
that's a big investment to him go cross

1329
00:48:57,286 --> 00:48:59,369
country not like they're making big bank in

1330
00:48:59,448 --> 00:49:01,276
San Diego. No. So... But what what they

1331
00:49:01,276 --> 00:49:03,524
do is it... It's... The reason They play

1332
00:49:03,819 --> 00:49:06,735
a, huge Pacific division schedule is economics. It's

1333
00:49:06,933 --> 00:49:08,443
right. Or anything. That makes sense of the

1334
00:49:08,443 --> 00:49:11,065
la Kings, top form club, the Ontario rain,

1335
00:49:11,224 --> 00:49:12,440
which is the big bribery

1336
00:49:12,893 --> 00:49:13,688
of of the goals.

1337
00:49:14,579 --> 00:49:16,420
So that... That's how the structure is. It

1338
00:49:16,420 --> 00:49:18,819
works it works really what's long hockey season,

1339
00:49:18,980 --> 00:49:19,480
But

1340
00:49:20,500 --> 00:49:22,350
I'm I'm the 1 that's screeching about, I

1341
00:49:22,350 --> 00:49:24,340
don't understand what they're doing in Anaheim because

1342
00:49:24,340 --> 00:49:26,568
what they doing in Anaheim definitely impacts the

1343
00:49:26,568 --> 00:49:27,842
product and the ice and the product on

1344
00:49:27,842 --> 00:49:29,690
the ice 3 years in a row, here

1345
00:49:29,690 --> 00:49:31,610
hadn't been very good. And to me, it

1346
00:49:31,610 --> 00:49:34,010
looks even worse now because they'll allowed their

1347
00:49:34,010 --> 00:49:36,269
top 5 veteran players who are the stabilizers

1348
00:49:36,489 --> 00:49:37,150
the roster

1349
00:49:37,623 --> 00:49:39,932
They just lost Trevor carr, big defense.

1350
00:49:40,968 --> 00:49:42,799
Before that, they lost Anthony Ag casino, 1

1351
00:49:42,799 --> 00:49:44,870
of their gold scores, Glenn Ga, 1 of

1352
00:49:44,870 --> 00:49:45,746
the big right winger.

1353
00:49:46,317 --> 00:49:47,111
These guys have gone.

1354
00:49:48,222 --> 00:49:50,602
Who the ducks gonna put in here to

1355
00:49:50,602 --> 00:49:52,744
help these kids that they've put in here

1356
00:49:52,744 --> 00:49:54,588
for the golf. Tough call. Yeah. It is

1357
00:49:54,588 --> 00:49:56,259
a tough call, but I think the Ducks...

1358
00:49:56,736 --> 00:49:58,963
They don't really care about how well the

1359
00:49:59,043 --> 00:50:01,840
San diego team performs. It's developing it the

1360
00:50:01,840 --> 00:50:04,063
right. They wanna develop guys, and maybe they

1361
00:50:04,063 --> 00:50:06,445
thought those veterans just, you know, were a

1362
00:50:06,445 --> 00:50:08,430
4 player. They weren't gonna really cut it

1363
00:50:08,430 --> 00:50:10,193
at the top level. But they are players.

1364
00:50:10,353 --> 00:50:12,266
But everybody's got 4 players. I mean, Kings

1365
00:50:12,266 --> 00:50:13,781
are signing in 4 players to put in

1366
00:50:14,021 --> 00:50:14,340
Ontario.

1367
00:50:14,898 --> 00:50:17,290
San jose got 4 players for... There's but

1368
00:50:17,290 --> 00:50:20,018
like depth pieces. Right? Yeah. 4 Mh. Leadership,

1369
00:50:20,258 --> 00:50:22,495
guys. Right. Now, I 1 other comment you

1370
00:50:22,495 --> 00:50:24,413
made. You talked about the Toronto. What was

1371
00:50:24,413 --> 00:50:26,650
the name of the teen? Marley. More bur.

1372
00:50:27,304 --> 00:50:29,142
So is that like, a Toronto thing? I

1373
00:50:29,142 --> 00:50:31,939
don't understand that. What is that? Mar? Was

1374
00:50:31,939 --> 00:50:35,056
the name of the legendary junior team that

1375
00:50:35,056 --> 00:50:36,175
was very successful.

1376
00:50:36,750 --> 00:50:39,230
In the city of Toronto. Oh, way back

1377
00:50:39,230 --> 00:50:41,150
in the day into the fifties into the

1378
00:50:41,150 --> 00:50:43,869
sixties into the seventies Toronto Mar were the

1379
00:50:43,869 --> 00:50:44,324
elite

1380
00:50:44,843 --> 00:50:46,917
junior hockey team. Wow. What does that mean?

1381
00:50:47,156 --> 00:50:48,831
I mean, Mar Has got something to do

1382
00:50:48,831 --> 00:50:51,064
with English. Yeah. Because I think of cigarettes.

1383
00:50:51,463 --> 00:50:52,681
I gotta think of Mar.

1384
00:50:53,856 --> 00:50:56,016
Go in your spare time. I was to

1385
00:50:56,016 --> 00:50:57,603
look up the logo and the Toronto Marley.

1386
00:50:57,762 --> 00:51:00,063
You'll let better better understand. They're they're the

1387
00:51:00,222 --> 00:51:02,206
A l form club of the Toronto Maple

1388
00:51:02,206 --> 00:51:05,646
leafs. Okay. The La rockets in Quebec are

1389
00:51:05,646 --> 00:51:07,400
the farm club of the Mont.

1390
00:51:08,597 --> 00:51:10,909
Okay? Manitoba moose so the farm club of

1393
00:51:15,063 --> 00:51:17,132
that? Yeah. It's cool. So I mean, American

like a got a bunch of people there

1408
00:51:49,529 --> 00:51:51,382
they got statements to make. We got a

1409
00:51:51,382 --> 00:51:53,054
bunch of folks here. Let's go start with

1410
00:51:53,213 --> 00:51:55,683
Greg, and he says, Lee, is San Diego

1411
00:51:55,683 --> 00:51:57,833
ever thought of bringing in an American league

1412
00:51:57,833 --> 00:52:00,159
baseball team, like the razor the Marlin. No.

1413
00:52:00,478 --> 00:52:02,870
Because when they awarded the franchise in 19

1414
00:52:02,870 --> 00:52:06,220
69, they awarded it to San Diego, was

1415
00:52:06,220 --> 00:52:08,294
it San Diego and Montreal, I think came

1416
00:52:08,294 --> 00:52:11,101
in simultaneously and they they were National league

1417
00:52:11,101 --> 00:52:13,095
team. No, there's not gonna be any change

1418
00:52:13,095 --> 00:52:14,770
here at all. You know, when they went

1419
00:52:14,770 --> 00:52:15,567
through expansion,

1420
00:52:16,205 --> 00:52:17,482
they, you know, they put the rays in

1421
00:52:17,482 --> 00:52:19,635
the American league, the Marlin obviously,

1422
00:52:20,368 --> 00:52:22,681
in the National league. Yeah. Well, I just

1423
00:52:22,681 --> 00:52:25,153
can't see any situation where San Diego could

1424
00:52:25,153 --> 00:52:26,988
support to and mailed he'll team done... I

1425
00:52:26,988 --> 00:52:28,264
mean, we just need to get the Nfl

1426
00:52:28,264 --> 00:52:30,672

1427
00:52:30,672 --> 00:52:32,905

00:52:38,010 --> 00:52:39,286
Says lightning bolt through.

1432
00:52:40,496 --> 00:52:42,406
Social media? No that what would you call

1433
00:52:42,406 --> 00:52:43,759
us? What do you call us? I I

1434
00:52:43,759 --> 00:52:44,793
don't know what the hell to called it?

1435
00:52:45,111 --> 00:52:46,703
All's as I know is that the fans

1436
00:52:46,703 --> 00:52:48,373
love the days when you were the play

1437
00:52:48,373 --> 00:52:50,144
by play for the larger. So. We did

1438
00:52:50,144 --> 00:52:52,065
a great job. Yeah. Should have ended better,

1439
00:52:52,224 --> 00:52:53,824
but it... Well, Had nothing to do with

1440
00:52:53,824 --> 00:52:55,664
the way it ended. It just kinda ended

1441
00:52:55,664 --> 00:52:58,545
actually somebody somebody wrote me a note because,

1442
00:52:58,704 --> 00:53:00,848
you know, I happened to, like, Don seal,

1443
00:53:01,007 --> 00:53:03,310
a cello? Yeah. With the potter and and,

1444
00:53:03,469 --> 00:53:04,422
you know, he had he'd...

1445
00:53:04,994 --> 00:53:07,968
Been a a cornerstone of the Red sox

1446
00:53:08,027 --> 00:53:09,782
broadcast River and woke up 1 morning Got

1447
00:53:09,782 --> 00:53:11,618
rid of him. And they said, well, the

1448
00:53:11,698 --> 00:53:14,659
Red sox treated Don like, the chargers treated

1449
00:53:14,738 --> 00:53:16,167
Hacks exile. I said, I I never thought

1450
00:53:16,167 --> 00:53:18,152
of it that way. I said, yeah. And

1451
00:53:18,152 --> 00:53:19,582
he landed on his feet and so did

1452
00:53:19,661 --> 00:53:21,408
I I Wound up going Seattle I'll be

1453
00:53:21,408 --> 00:53:22,123
voice the Sea.

1454
00:53:22,694 --> 00:53:24,689
For 3 years till the deal changed, but

1455
00:53:24,769 --> 00:53:26,445
I was different. I stayed here. I stayed

1456
00:53:26,445 --> 00:53:28,200
here for my family, and I was not

1457
00:53:28,200 --> 00:53:29,876
gonna direct my kids all over the country.

1458
00:53:30,036 --> 00:53:32,449
So I had some opportunities other places, but

1459
00:53:32,530 --> 00:53:33,969
I just decided to stay here. So I'm

1460
00:53:33,969 --> 00:53:35,329
sorry John, you're stuck with me. That's the

1461
00:53:35,329 --> 00:53:36,769
way it is. Well, you know, it's it's

1462
00:53:36,769 --> 00:53:38,929
interesting listening to Don Solo talk about how

1463
00:53:38,929 --> 00:53:41,172
he came up. Through the minor league system,

1464
00:53:41,330 --> 00:53:43,233
just like a player did. I mean, your

1465
00:53:43,233 --> 00:53:44,739
career has been like that as well? Yeah.

1466
00:53:44,898 --> 00:53:46,642
And, you know, Don came up through minor

1467
00:53:46,721 --> 00:53:49,359
League Baseball I cut... I started my career

1468
00:53:49,359 --> 00:53:51,507
in Minor league Hockey, and I did Minor

1469
00:53:51,507 --> 00:53:52,143
league Baseball.

1470
00:53:52,541 --> 00:53:54,132
I never crossed paths with him. I was

1471
00:53:54,132 --> 00:53:56,620
in the New York Penn league with the

1472
00:53:56,620 --> 00:53:59,494
infamous Uti Blue socks, Mh. Which was a

1473
00:53:59,494 --> 00:54:01,410
a farm club of the Fill for a

1474
00:54:01,410 --> 00:54:03,885
long time and then the Blue jays, etcetera,

1475
00:54:04,298 --> 00:54:06,526
the Uti Blue Sox had a great history

1476
00:54:06,526 --> 00:54:07,799
back in the forties and fifties.

1477
00:54:08,515 --> 00:54:09,709
They're a top minor league team in the

1478
00:54:09,788 --> 00:54:11,800
F. And all everybody that played in Uti

1479
00:54:11,857 --> 00:54:13,704
in the late 19 forties, was part of

1480
00:54:13,704 --> 00:54:14,822
the 19 fifties,

1481
00:54:15,382 --> 00:54:17,619
Fill whiz kids team. Oh, hey. Yeah. Richie

1482
00:54:17,779 --> 00:54:20,176
Ash, and, I mean, Willie Jenkins Allen. Is

1483
00:54:20,176 --> 00:54:21,949
he part of Dan La, Yeah. I mean,

1484
00:54:22,030 --> 00:54:23,389
there were a lot. I don't know if

1485
00:54:23,469 --> 00:54:25,789
Robin Roberts was there, but, I mean, there

1486
00:54:25,789 --> 00:54:27,809
were a whole bunch of guys that played

1487
00:54:28,269 --> 00:54:28,510
in...

1488
00:54:29,324 --> 00:54:30,525
I think at that point it was the

1489
00:54:30,525 --> 00:54:33,164
east league Uti Blue socks that all went

1490
00:54:33,164 --> 00:54:35,724
to the Philadelphia Fill, the 19 50,

1491
00:54:36,699 --> 00:54:38,854
whiz kids. Right on. Yeah. Like me, you've

1492
00:54:38,854 --> 00:54:41,668
been everywhere. We... Everybody... Everybody comes from somewhere

1493
00:54:41,967 --> 00:54:44,121
hedge question. Okay. Let's go here to Angel

1494
00:54:44,121 --> 00:54:46,603
and he says, it's gonna feel weird not

1495
00:54:46,603 --> 00:54:48,828
seeing pac 12 football and basketball. Oh I

1496
00:54:48,828 --> 00:54:51,052
think it's terrible. I mean, his conference has

1497
00:54:51,052 --> 00:54:53,197
been in an existence since 19 15.

1498
00:54:53,927 --> 00:54:55,837
I I just... I think it's awful.

1499
00:54:56,712 --> 00:54:59,656
And even if 2 years from now and

1500
00:54:59,895 --> 00:55:02,122
Washington State Oregon State have a 2 year

1501
00:55:02,122 --> 00:55:02,441
window.

1502
00:55:03,014 --> 00:55:04,291
To put together a new conference.

1503
00:55:05,409 --> 00:55:07,904
But whatever they put together, even if Cow

1504
00:55:08,442 --> 00:55:09,261
and Stanford

1505
00:55:09,799 --> 00:55:12,289
come back from the Acc and that That's

1506
00:55:12,289 --> 00:55:14,530
an under current rumor that's out there that

1507
00:55:14,530 --> 00:55:16,289
this isn't gonna work. This makes no sense

1508
00:55:16,289 --> 00:55:18,210
at all that if they come back,

1509
00:55:19,024 --> 00:55:21,491
So Cal Stanford, Oregon State Washington state, that's

1510
00:55:21,491 --> 00:55:22,764
4. If you take 4 for the Mountain

1511
00:55:22,844 --> 00:55:25,231
West, but it's not the pack 12. If

1512
00:55:25,231 --> 00:55:26,744
it's more like Mountain West 2,

1513
00:55:27,380 --> 00:55:29,226
if you will. So... I I don't know

1514
00:55:29,226 --> 00:55:31,773
what kind of Tv contract that generates if

1515
00:55:31,773 --> 00:55:34,319
those were the 8 teams that as part

1516
00:55:34,319 --> 00:55:35,672
of a rebranded pack.

1517
00:55:36,801 --> 00:55:38,153
I just doesn't makes sense to me. To

1518
00:55:38,153 --> 00:55:40,142
me, it's a sad comment. And I I

1519
00:55:40,142 --> 00:55:41,733
think it's be the weirdest feel in the

1520
00:55:41,733 --> 00:55:44,056
world to think. Well Gee, I'll turn the

1521
00:55:44,215 --> 00:55:46,842
Tv on at 9AM and we'll watch Usc

1522
00:55:46,842 --> 00:55:48,594
play in the big 10 against arrival.

1523
00:55:49,311 --> 00:55:49,550
What?

1524
00:55:50,664 --> 00:55:53,153
9AM. Yeah. Well it's gonna be even weirder.

1525
00:55:53,472 --> 00:55:55,869
Mh. I mean, I can't wait for the

1526
00:55:55,949 --> 00:55:58,426
Cal Wake forest driver rita start. God's gonna

1527
00:55:58,426 --> 00:55:59,305
be fantastic.

1528
00:55:59,958 --> 00:56:02,579
Well, you know, even before the pac 12

1529
00:56:02,579 --> 00:56:05,438
broke up. It still never had... Well, you

1530
00:56:05,438 --> 00:56:07,186
know, going back to the seventies and all

1531
00:56:07,186 --> 00:56:09,251
the Usc football program was great.

1532
00:56:09,902 --> 00:56:10,402
But

1533
00:56:11,494 --> 00:56:13,802
it past 12 never was this at the

1534
00:56:13,802 --> 00:56:15,155
same level as the big 10 or the

1535
00:56:15,394 --> 00:56:17,963
Sec. So when we're here in California watching

1536
00:56:18,020 --> 00:56:18,816
college football.

1537
00:56:19,468 --> 00:56:20,980
We knew the big games were the back

1538
00:56:20,980 --> 00:56:22,571
east games, and we had our own kinda

1539
00:56:22,571 --> 00:56:24,799
of local conference, but it was just never

1540
00:56:24,799 --> 00:56:27,027
the same. No, But Usc and Ucla Had

1541
00:56:27,027 --> 00:56:29,270
been pretty good and more re... Suddenly Oregon

1542
00:56:29,270 --> 00:56:29,929
and Washington

1543
00:56:30,464 --> 00:56:32,136
have been really good. So they've been 4

1544
00:56:32,136 --> 00:56:34,228
vibrant West Coast programs.

1545
00:56:34,921 --> 00:56:36,832
You know, I mean, Utah has done well

1546
00:56:36,832 --> 00:56:38,997
since it came in, but suddenly Utah is

1547
00:56:38,997 --> 00:56:41,469
not a pac 12 standard bearer per s.

1548
00:56:41,947 --> 00:56:44,180
And the odd good year that Stanford might

1549
00:56:44,180 --> 00:56:46,174
have had or Cal might have had or

1550
00:56:46,493 --> 00:56:47,051
Arizona state,

1551
00:56:47,783 --> 00:56:49,796
had for a short period of time, but

1552
00:56:49,853 --> 00:56:51,765
those were the standard bearer and what the

1553
00:56:51,765 --> 00:56:53,915
ducks became and what the hu became was

1554
00:56:53,915 --> 00:56:56,167
really important because Usc

1555
00:56:56,639 --> 00:56:58,713
Ucla kinda went through some dips along the

1556
00:56:58,713 --> 00:57:00,947
way. But those are the 4 marquee names

1557
00:57:00,947 --> 00:57:02,724
and that's all gone. It and

1558
00:57:03,102 --> 00:57:05,114
Angel is correct. I that's Saturdays are gonna

1559
00:57:05,114 --> 00:57:07,114
feel really weird out here in terms of

1560
00:57:07,114 --> 00:57:09,775
your emotional attachment to what you're watching. And

1561
00:57:09,994 --> 00:57:11,835
somebody answered this question for me in the

1562
00:57:11,835 --> 00:57:12,235
chat box.

1563
00:57:12,888 --> 00:57:14,876
You're gonna root for Southern Cal, Ucla to

1564
00:57:14,876 --> 00:57:16,068
get killed when they go to the big

1565
00:57:16,068 --> 00:57:17,896
10. I know a lot of people are.

1566
00:57:18,294 --> 00:57:20,043
Not me. I I wanna see the West

1567
00:57:20,202 --> 00:57:21,951
Coast teams beat the crap out of those.

1568
00:57:22,364 --> 00:57:23,804
Big 10 guys. I mean, I think it's

1569
00:57:23,804 --> 00:57:26,864
gonna be pretty exciting, but I my my

1570
00:57:27,164 --> 00:57:30,538
expectations are reasonably ratchet down. Okay. We move

1571
00:57:30,538 --> 00:57:32,615
on. We move on. Okay. Let's go here

1572
00:57:32,615 --> 00:57:35,252
to Cj. He said, hey, let's not forget

1573
00:57:35,252 --> 00:57:37,902
that the Kansas speedway. Is on the Kansas

1574
00:57:37,902 --> 00:57:39,918
side of the Kansas City or the Kansas

1575
00:57:40,136 --> 00:57:43,328
Missouri border, but is in Kansas City. So

1576
00:57:43,328 --> 00:57:45,976
the chiefs and royal event may wind up

1577
00:57:45,976 --> 00:57:48,448
near where the Nascar track is. So he's

1578
00:57:48,448 --> 00:57:50,283
saying that there's part of Missouri on the

1579
00:57:50,283 --> 00:57:51,958
other side of the river or that thought

1580
00:57:51,958 --> 00:57:54,510
all, there's Kansas city, Kansas, which is right

1581
00:57:54,510 --> 00:57:56,765
next to Kansas City, Missouri. The only thing

1582
00:57:56,765 --> 00:57:59,085
that separates them as a sign. Right, that

1583
00:57:59,085 --> 00:58:01,164
says you're leaving Missouri entering the state of

1584
00:58:01,244 --> 00:58:01,744
Kansas

1585
00:58:02,935 --> 00:58:05,481
Okay. So... But so it's it's in the

1586
00:58:05,640 --> 00:58:07,549
Kansas City, Kansas part of it. And obviously,

1587
00:58:07,787 --> 00:58:09,697
that's a separate city. You know, I heard

1588
00:58:09,697 --> 00:58:13,125
someone say that... The original Kansas city was

1589
00:58:13,125 --> 00:58:14,155
in Kansas,

1590
00:58:14,789 --> 00:58:17,088
and that they created the second Kansas city

1591
00:58:17,088 --> 00:58:19,488
in Missouri much later, and it was only

1592
00:58:19,488 --> 00:58:21,006
for the convenience of a lot of the

1593
00:58:21,006 --> 00:58:22,864
westward bound homestead.

1594
00:58:23,563 --> 00:58:23,722
Okay.

1595
00:58:24,442 --> 00:58:26,534
That's Pc history. I didn't know. I didn't

1596
00:58:26,534 --> 00:58:28,291
know that either. Changed my life, because I

1597
00:58:28,291 --> 00:58:29,650
was always wondering why in the hell there

1598
00:58:29,650 --> 00:58:31,327
are 2 Kansas cities. I mean, in the

1599
00:58:31,327 --> 00:58:31,966
very beginning,

1600
00:58:32,845 --> 00:58:34,693
you know, only knew of 1 Kansas city

1601
00:58:34,693 --> 00:58:35,887
and it turned out to be in Missouri,

1602
00:58:36,046 --> 00:58:38,833
and that's... That even confused Trump? Isn't there...

1603
00:58:39,311 --> 00:58:41,223
Isn't there Saint. Louis, Missouri?

1604
00:58:41,860 --> 00:58:44,579
I in east Saint Louis, Illinois. On the

1605
00:58:44,579 --> 00:58:46,011
other side of the river. I think there

1606
00:58:46,011 --> 00:58:47,363
is. Yeah. There is. It's right on the

1607
00:58:47,363 --> 00:58:49,590
other side of the the arch. Yeah. Yeah.

1608
00:58:49,908 --> 00:58:52,470
But that's is that the Mississippi River over

1609
00:58:52,470 --> 00:58:55,416
there? Isn't it? Yeah. Okay. Wow. We're learning

1610
00:58:55,416 --> 00:58:56,929
our geography here. Way to take this thing

1611
00:58:56,929 --> 00:58:59,255
off correct, John? Thank you. Next question. Let's

1612
00:58:59,255 --> 00:59:02,131
go to Chris Curry says saw. Touchy subject

1613
00:59:02,131 --> 00:59:05,269
warning, but the porter and bridges both being

1614
00:59:05,488 --> 00:59:07,086
reinstated and paid in the Nba,

1615
00:59:07,726 --> 00:59:08,705
perhaps bauer

1616
00:59:09,019 --> 00:59:13,085
should have strangled against consent, amazingly blatant double

1617
00:59:13,085 --> 00:59:15,078
standard. Well, he's Talking about the Nba players.

1618
00:59:15,237 --> 00:59:16,911
Now those guys both set out a year.

1619
00:59:18,121 --> 00:59:19,871
Kevin Porter who just signed with the clippers,

1620
00:59:20,428 --> 00:59:22,735
bridges who was in Charlotte and just got

1621
00:59:22,735 --> 00:59:23,054
traded,

1622
00:59:23,769 --> 00:59:24,269
both

1623
00:59:25,059 --> 00:59:27,696
were arrested and banned from the Nba for

1624
00:59:27,696 --> 00:59:28,735
1 full season.

1625
00:59:30,014 --> 00:59:32,331
Now they're back reinstated and they're obviously playing

1626
00:59:32,331 --> 00:59:33,050
for different teams.

1627
00:59:33,864 --> 00:59:36,333
Power situation bog the mind when the world

1628
00:59:36,333 --> 00:59:38,324
needs pitching, and he's down there. Last night

1629
00:59:38,324 --> 00:59:40,235
I checked as of Monday, he was 10

1630
00:59:40,235 --> 00:59:41,987
o with Mexico City.

1631
00:59:42,719 --> 00:59:44,472
He's not said he not made any statements,

1632
00:59:44,631 --> 00:59:46,384
which kinda of surprises me. And the national

1633
00:59:46,543 --> 00:59:48,079
Media has not made any

1634
00:59:48,774 --> 00:59:50,925
done anything about in terms going down there

1635
00:59:50,925 --> 00:59:52,614
an interview when I'm we're covering that. That

1636
00:59:52,614 --> 00:59:54,534
angle the story, but how could a guy

1637
00:59:54,534 --> 00:59:56,454
with his kind of track record as as

1638
00:59:56,454 --> 00:59:58,375
crazy as he might be in the junkie

1639
00:59:58,375 --> 00:59:59,174
did off the field,

1640
00:59:59,748 --> 01:00:01,418
how he could not get a phone call

1641
01:00:01,418 --> 01:00:03,960
from somebody because everybody I know and major

1642
01:00:03,960 --> 01:00:06,742
baseball needs pitching. Well, and it's not it's

1643
01:00:06,742 --> 01:00:08,903
not just comparing the major league base ball

1644
01:00:08,903 --> 01:00:11,053
with the Nba. I mean, we've had guys

1645
01:00:11,053 --> 01:00:13,521
like Marcel marcelo A major League Baseball that

1646
01:00:13,521 --> 01:00:16,388
have... He strangled his girlfriend or wife, Didn't

1647
01:00:16,388 --> 01:00:18,391
he, and he's still playing ball and making

1648
01:00:18,391 --> 01:00:20,221
came back. He was disciplined too, but he

1649
01:00:20,221 --> 01:00:22,686
came back. Yeah. So why isn't... I, it's...

1650
01:00:23,004 --> 01:00:24,219
Has major league baseball

1651
01:00:24,912 --> 01:00:27,871
taken off the suspension. Like, he bauer could

1652
01:00:27,871 --> 01:00:29,465
come back. Yes. If a team would sign.

1653
01:00:29,624 --> 01:00:31,935
Right? Because they reduced the suspension, he served

1654
01:00:31,935 --> 01:00:33,927
the term when he pitched for Yokohama bay

1655
01:00:33,927 --> 01:00:34,166
stars,

1656
01:00:34,819 --> 01:00:36,812
He is eligible. He worked out for teams.

1657
01:00:37,051 --> 01:00:39,044
He threw an exhibition games and nobody's saw

1658
01:00:39,044 --> 01:00:39,841
from a contract.

1659
01:00:40,638 --> 01:00:41,993
Black bolt, Blacklisted hosted.

1660
01:00:43,202 --> 01:00:44,868
A hundred percent But the fans of social

1661
01:00:44,868 --> 01:00:45,185
media,

1662
01:00:45,820 --> 01:00:47,565
9 out of 10 of them want bauer

1663
01:00:47,565 --> 01:00:48,913
back. And it doesn't matter if they're a

1664
01:00:48,993 --> 01:00:50,976
Dodge fan Angel fan Pod fan or just,

1665
01:00:51,055 --> 01:00:52,894
you baseball fan in general, because they think

1666
01:00:52,894 --> 01:00:55,590
he got screwed. He got gold doug, You

1667
01:00:55,590 --> 01:00:57,493
know, this woman took advantage of him and

1668
01:00:57,493 --> 01:00:58,286
try to rip them off.

1669
01:00:59,174 --> 01:01:01,003
But he was also involved in some pretty

1670
01:01:01,003 --> 01:01:03,947
s stuff. Well, his choice off the field,

1671
01:01:04,185 --> 01:01:05,776
I concur with you wholeheartedly,

1672
01:01:06,268 --> 01:01:08,179
He served his sanctions. He lost a lot

1673
01:01:08,179 --> 01:01:10,328
of money. He lost, like, I wanna say

1674
01:01:10,328 --> 01:01:11,203
31000000

1675
01:01:11,203 --> 01:01:13,193
dollars. Mh. And which was part of the

1676
01:01:13,273 --> 01:01:15,763
Dodge contract that was eradicated. So

1677
01:01:16,313 --> 01:01:17,829
Just is stunning here we are at the

1678
01:01:17,829 --> 01:01:19,904
trade deadline, and everybody's trying to figure out

1679
01:01:19,904 --> 01:01:21,500
which picture we can get, and he's in

1680
01:01:21,659 --> 01:01:23,335
Mexico 10 o yet to get a call.

1681
01:01:23,748 --> 01:01:25,817
Next question. Okay. Let's go here to social

1682
01:01:25,817 --> 01:01:27,169
media. We can get a couple of other

1683
01:01:27,169 --> 01:01:29,873
folks involved. And, yeah, let's let's talk Kings

1684
01:01:29,873 --> 01:01:31,885
and ducks. And this is from Sq. And

1685
01:01:31,885 --> 01:01:33,964
he says, hey, The king should go back

1686
01:01:33,964 --> 01:01:36,525
to the pre wan, purple and gold. You're

1687
01:01:36,525 --> 01:01:38,844
here. I do like bringing back the retro

1688
01:01:38,844 --> 01:01:40,774
crown and ask for Anaheim. I think it's

1689
01:01:40,774 --> 01:01:43,720
a good move playing up their Orange County

1690
01:01:43,720 --> 01:01:45,711
roots, already and the Angels should do the

1691
01:01:45,711 --> 01:01:47,463
same thing and drop the stupid name he

1692
01:01:47,463 --> 01:01:49,071
came up with. Well, tell you what? I

1693
01:01:49,071 --> 01:01:50,347
said this 1 and we did the thing

1694
01:01:50,347 --> 01:01:52,899
on the logos a couple weeks ago. I

1695
01:01:52,899 --> 01:01:55,291
said congrats to the ducks, coming up with

1696
01:01:55,291 --> 01:01:57,205
the idea. This is or...

1697
01:01:57,940 --> 01:01:58,180
Country.

1698
01:01:58,980 --> 01:02:00,260
Aka, Orange County.

1699
01:02:00,820 --> 01:02:01,140
Aka,

1700
01:02:01,619 --> 01:02:03,619
Anaheim Ducks were in orange Jersey.

1701
01:02:04,099 --> 01:02:06,754
I think that's a cool marketing thing. And

1702
01:02:06,754 --> 01:02:07,553
as for the kings,

1703
01:02:08,432 --> 01:02:11,708
the heritage obviously is the G era and

1704
01:02:11,708 --> 01:02:13,786
getting to the Stanley Cup finals and and

1705
01:02:13,786 --> 01:02:16,119
hosting the trophy. Be h in Trophy a

1706
01:02:16,119 --> 01:02:18,759
couple different times. But I'll tell you, everybody

1707
01:02:18,759 --> 01:02:19,799
that I know loves,

1708
01:02:20,519 --> 01:02:22,859
the purple and gold and the original

1709
01:02:23,159 --> 01:02:26,454
crown crest be which was really, really cool.

1710
01:02:26,695 --> 01:02:26,855
Mh.

1711
01:02:27,735 --> 01:02:29,574
I'm not a big silver and black fan

1712
01:02:29,574 --> 01:02:31,175
when I think silver and black. I think

1713
01:02:31,175 --> 01:02:32,054
the bleep and raiders,

1714
01:02:32,788 --> 01:02:33,027
But

1715
01:02:33,664 --> 01:02:36,056
that was the G era. So, you know,

1716
01:02:36,215 --> 01:02:38,128
the kings went halfway back because they they

1717
01:02:38,128 --> 01:02:40,041
brought the old crown back as part of

1718
01:02:40,041 --> 01:02:40,201
the...

1719
01:02:41,175 --> 01:02:41,675
Rebuilt

1720
01:02:42,054 --> 01:02:43,974
silver and black Crest. They're gonna wear on

1721
01:02:43,974 --> 01:02:46,054
the jersey. But what the ducks did, I'd...

1722
01:02:46,295 --> 01:02:47,835
That... You know, this is orange

1723
01:02:48,867 --> 01:02:49,026
country.

1724
01:02:49,742 --> 01:02:51,810
That's a slap at already Moreno for, you

1725
01:02:51,810 --> 01:02:54,912
know, Los Angeles Angeles angels, Anaheim. That's stupid.

1726
01:02:55,151 --> 01:02:56,837
It is stupid, and it just shows that

1727
01:02:56,837 --> 01:02:58,746
he has an identity crisis, and it's another

1728
01:02:58,746 --> 01:03:00,734
reason not to like arty moreno. But, yeah,

1729
01:03:00,973 --> 01:03:01,291
Orange,

1730
01:03:01,848 --> 01:03:04,579
ducks is love all that. That's perfect. You

1731
01:03:04,579 --> 01:03:06,420
know? It just makes me think of the

1732
01:03:06,420 --> 01:03:08,179
the band no doubt. You know, we're on

1733
01:03:08,179 --> 01:03:10,019
the Album cover, she's holding up an orange.

1734
01:03:10,513 --> 01:03:12,974
Gwen Stefan. But, what what line were you

1735
01:03:12,974 --> 01:03:14,824
talking about? Yeah. We're talking musically.

1736
01:03:15,992 --> 01:03:19,426
But, anyways, the kings, I, I always like

1737
01:03:19,426 --> 01:03:20,782
the color of purple. You know, we have

1738
01:03:20,782 --> 01:03:22,936
purple here in our, podcast studio.

1739
01:03:23,574 --> 01:03:26,286
Purple is the color of royalty. And that

1740
01:03:26,286 --> 01:03:28,612
is cool for the for the kings. Because

1741
01:03:28,612 --> 01:03:30,676
if you look around most sports, there's a

1742
01:03:30,676 --> 01:03:33,216
million blue and red teams, but very few

1743
01:03:33,216 --> 01:03:35,438
purple. Purple and gold. I mean, it was

1744
01:03:35,438 --> 01:03:36,867
really, really cool. And know it was a

1745
01:03:36,867 --> 01:03:39,991
great ear Ro Ba Marcel Dion, Dave Taylor.

1746
01:03:40,231 --> 01:03:42,384
Mh. Bernie Nichols. I mean, there are a

1747
01:03:42,384 --> 01:03:44,139
lot of really good players, the Miracle on

1748
01:03:44,538 --> 01:03:46,691
Manchester, the first time the kings ever became

1749
01:03:46,691 --> 01:03:47,191
something

1750
01:03:47,503 --> 01:03:49,891
special in the Nhl. So I'd love to

1751
01:03:49,891 --> 01:03:52,040
see him reach back. This whole thing is

1752
01:03:52,040 --> 01:03:55,065
about selling Jersey. Mh. You know, last year,

1753
01:03:55,144 --> 01:03:56,657
the Ducks went back and actually,

1754
01:03:57,229 --> 01:03:59,141
brought back as their third Jersey,

1755
01:04:00,336 --> 01:04:00,836
the

1756
01:04:01,690 --> 01:04:03,385
turquoise and maroon

1757
01:04:04,733 --> 01:04:07,445
colors from the original Ducks early years, which

1758
01:04:07,445 --> 01:04:09,280
was neat. And suddenly the fans were showing

1759
01:04:09,280 --> 01:04:11,114
up more in that. Kings can do the

1760
01:04:11,114 --> 01:04:12,949
same. The kings can come back and with

1761
01:04:12,949 --> 01:04:14,087
have a third jersey

1762
01:04:14,559 --> 01:04:16,559
purple and gold. Yeah. With the original crown.

1763
01:04:16,720 --> 01:04:18,400
And you only word it on special occasions,

1764
01:04:18,559 --> 01:04:20,480
you know, do it... If you play Christmas

1765
01:04:20,480 --> 01:04:21,680
day, you play New Year's day,

1766
01:04:22,413 --> 01:04:22,730
do it.

1767
01:04:23,681 --> 01:04:25,663
They haven't done it yet, but maybe maybe

1768
01:04:25,663 --> 01:04:27,407
that's still out there. How about 1 more

1769
01:04:27,407 --> 01:04:29,072
on social media before we close this out?

1770
01:04:29,310 --> 01:04:31,075
Okay. Let's go to a Clippers comment. This

1771
01:04:31,075 --> 01:04:33,545
is from bar stool logic, talking about, you

1772
01:04:33,545 --> 01:04:36,652
know, Pg 13, leaving the clippers. 60 percent

1773
01:04:36,652 --> 01:04:38,962
of of the salary for 50 percent of

1774
01:04:38,962 --> 01:04:41,295
the games, sounds pretty good. Hope they have

1775
01:04:41,295 --> 01:04:42,894
a good medical staff over there in New

1776
01:04:43,054 --> 01:04:44,574
York. Well, he did play. I think he

1777
01:04:44,574 --> 01:04:46,494
played 74 games last season and he played

1778
01:04:46,494 --> 01:04:48,669
a lot of basketball of course, prior 2

1779
01:04:48,669 --> 01:04:51,066
years, he was just ding up as as

1780
01:04:51,626 --> 01:04:53,943
Leonard was, but it's tough. I don't know

1781
01:04:53,943 --> 01:04:55,861
how they replace them. I mean, it what

1782
01:04:55,861 --> 01:04:57,720
they've added in the roster that

1783
01:04:58,034 --> 01:05:00,583
they don't combine together to to bring the

1784
01:05:00,583 --> 01:05:01,322
kind of firepower,

1785
01:05:01,778 --> 01:05:03,530
the Pg 13 brings. So,

1786
01:05:04,486 --> 01:05:05,936
looks looks like they're gonna have a bit

1787
01:05:05,936 --> 01:05:07,690
of a down cycle season. And, of course,

1788
01:05:07,770 --> 01:05:08,988
the lakers are paralyzed

1789
01:05:10,003 --> 01:05:12,315
by their 15 man roster, They... And because

1790
01:05:12,315 --> 01:05:14,070
of the cap that and don't... They can't,

1791
01:05:14,150 --> 01:05:16,085
like trade very many future draft picks.

1792
01:05:16,885 --> 01:05:18,805
They're just locked in with what they have

1793
01:05:18,805 --> 01:05:20,405
and what they have is, I don't think

1794
01:05:20,405 --> 01:05:21,925
is even as good as what they had

1795
01:05:21,925 --> 01:05:23,364
a year ago. Well,

1796
01:05:24,177 --> 01:05:26,164
a clippers situation. Well, of all, he went

1797
01:05:26,164 --> 01:05:27,594
to Philly, not to new york my bad.

1798
01:05:27,912 --> 01:05:28,071
But,

1799
01:05:29,184 --> 01:05:31,984
Ka her, Ka career maybe close to over.

1800
01:05:32,143 --> 01:05:34,380
It's in jeopardy. Pg 13 is gone.

1801
01:05:35,738 --> 01:05:37,895
James Harden is a head case and getting

1802
01:05:37,895 --> 01:05:38,395
old

1803
01:05:38,708 --> 01:05:39,426
who else has left?

1804
01:05:40,224 --> 01:05:40,963
The center

1805
01:05:41,340 --> 01:05:43,015
Z bak. Mh. That's about it.

1806
01:05:43,652 --> 01:05:44,609
A bunch of young guys.

1807
01:05:45,646 --> 01:05:47,400
I'd I'd I do like Norman powell.

1808
01:05:47,893 --> 01:05:49,802
They've got some firepower kids off the bench,

1809
01:05:49,962 --> 01:05:51,791
but they're not established Nba guys,

1810
01:05:52,427 --> 01:05:53,621
and they didn't have a first strong pick

1811
01:05:53,621 --> 01:05:55,708
this share either. Right, you know, I I

1812
01:05:55,708 --> 01:05:57,786
don't know where the next trade is gonna

1813
01:05:57,786 --> 01:06:00,023
come from. You know, they gotten Clay Thompson,

1814
01:06:00,182 --> 01:06:01,701
have they gotten Chris Paul. That would be

1815
01:06:01,701 --> 01:06:03,708
a little bit different. Clay Thompson and Dallas

1816
01:06:03,867 --> 01:06:05,618
Chris Ball is now gonna be a starting

1817
01:06:05,618 --> 01:06:08,164
guard on a very young San Antonio team.

1818
01:06:08,323 --> 01:06:09,835
And that's that's a perfect fit.

1819
01:06:10,472 --> 01:06:11,745
I think there. So

1820
01:06:12,158 --> 01:06:13,912
I just... I don't see the lakers being

1821
01:06:13,912 --> 01:06:15,985
able to stand up to a 7 game

1822
01:06:15,985 --> 01:06:17,340
schedule, And I don't know how the clippers

1823
01:06:17,340 --> 01:06:18,855
gonna show up for 7 games because I

1824
01:06:18,855 --> 01:06:20,623
don't think they got in the firepower. And

1825
01:06:20,623 --> 01:06:22,373
it's a shame because, you know, they're building

1826
01:06:22,373 --> 01:06:24,204
that new arena. And you'd love to have

1827
01:06:24,204 --> 01:06:25,954
a really competitive team for that what year

1828
01:06:25,954 --> 01:06:26,193
cursed.

1829
01:06:26,989 --> 01:06:28,660
It's it's huge. Is a definitely a. I

1830
01:06:28,660 --> 01:06:29,376
mean, this this is...

1831
01:06:30,106 --> 01:06:32,091
The the second time that this happened, they

1832
01:06:32,091 --> 01:06:33,782
put this very good team together

1833
01:06:34,315 --> 01:06:35,664
and they physically broke down.

1834
01:06:36,459 --> 01:06:37,967
The last time they put it together with

1835
01:06:38,047 --> 01:06:38,523
Chris Paul,

1836
01:06:39,333 --> 01:06:39,890
play Griffin,

1837
01:06:40,606 --> 01:06:42,537
it broke down too. And

1838
01:06:43,231 --> 01:06:44,901
I just can't get out from other cloud

1839
01:06:44,901 --> 01:06:46,664
to be in the clippers, Yeah. I mean,

1840
01:06:46,902 --> 01:06:49,754
it's it's the San Diego sports curse. Trickled

1841
01:06:49,754 --> 01:06:52,289
up to La. It traveled with Donald Sterling,

1842
01:06:52,448 --> 01:06:54,209
and it's still... Stuck there with that team.

1843
01:06:54,447 --> 01:06:56,277
Okay. Make me a promise. No more no

1844
01:06:56,277 --> 01:06:59,458

1845
01:06:59,458 --> 01:07:02,496
