I bet you you only 46 00:02:53.199 --> 00:02:55.719 wear it. It's the only thing that was clean. You know that wasn't 47 00:02:55.719 --> 00:03:00.199 clean?

Palla Larsen had thirteen point, six rebounds, 52 00:03:17.960 --> 00:03:22.360 three assists. Keisha Johnson had nine points and two rebounds, but he 53 00:03:22.479 --> 00:03:25.599 left the game with a left ankle spring. Who Yeah, he can't afford 54 00:03:25.639 --> 00:03:29.199 that. But you know the thing is if you're good and they have a 55 00:03:29.199 --> 00:03:31.879 whole space for you. Yeah, and Pelly's numbers, those are his numbers. 56 00:03:32.159 --> 00:03:35.240 Yeah, that's what he does. Yeah, that's what he did here, 57 00:03:35.479 --> 00:03:38.759 right for sure. You know, I wonder if they're both gonna make 58 00:03:38.759 --> 00:03:40.879 it. I think one of them, will you think? So? I 59 00:03:40.919 --> 00:03:46.240 don't know who, because there was the he's got a contract. It was 60 00:03:46.240 --> 00:03:50.680 a sway thing. They're spending money on him, right, he better try 61 00:03:50.719 --> 00:03:53.120 to make the team. Yeah, and all he's got to do is not 62 00:03:53.159 --> 00:03:55.560 mess it up, right, don't don't mess it up? Yeah, and 63 00:03:55.639 --> 00:04:00.520 hopefully nobody else behind you excel, right Yeah, so yeah, yeah, 64 00:04:00.639 --> 00:04:06.080 okay, and interesting, we'll see, Yeah, we'll see.

No, it's hard. 68 00:04:16.439 --> 00:04:18.759 It's hard, you know. I when I go, when I've been 69 00:04:18.800 --> 00:04:21.879 going for the packed off term. I was there Tuesday, this Sunday. 70 00:04:23.399 --> 00:04:26.800 That's hard. It's low. Yeah, but you're also working, so you're 71 00:04:27.040 --> 00:04:30.439 still a long day going to your you know, leaving your room and going 72 00:04:30.439 --> 00:04:35.120 somewhere and walking through the slot machines and all the noise and going out in 73 00:04:35.160 --> 00:04:39.639 the street. It's a that's a long time to be there, you know. 74 00:04:39.920 --> 00:04:42.759 And I people go there and they gamble for a week. You know. 75 00:04:42.800 --> 00:04:45.399 I don't know how you could do that. I mean, I if 76 00:04:45.399 --> 00:04:47.839 it's if I'm going to just gamble, I've got three days in me, 77 00:04:48.240 --> 00:04:51.240 like a Friday or Sunday. The funny thing with you, and not funny 78 00:04:51.279 --> 00:04:55.279 thing is is just what you do. You don't go. You sit at 79 00:04:55.279 --> 00:04:58.720 a place and watch for three days, right, You don't meander, you 80 00:04:58.720 --> 00:05:01.399 don't blah, yeah, you know, you just sit, eat your food 81 00:05:01.399 --> 00:05:04.240 and watch the game. Yes, exactly, that's what we do. You 82 00:05:04.240 --> 00:05:08.560 could do that in your couch. I could. There's no reason for us 83 00:05:08.560 --> 00:05:11.279 to go on that trip in November, right, Everything that we do there, 84 00:05:11.720 --> 00:05:14.360 we can do here. We just we just don't. And I think 85 00:05:14.360 --> 00:05:16.319 I told you you go to have you watch that stuff now in the in 86 00:05:16.360 --> 00:05:19.360 the stadium. No, it's fantastic. Yeah, it's a we might have 87 00:05:19.439 --> 00:05:23.879 to make a trip over there this coming. It's like it's like man cave 88 00:05:23.959 --> 00:05:26.480 heaven. Yeah, it's better go then in the day of the night. 89 00:05:27.079 --> 00:05:30.600 Uh, they probably you can find a seat twenty five bucks to sit. 90 00:05:30.800 --> 00:05:33.319 And then food you have the out doors are indoors indoors indoor or the indoor 91 00:05:33.360 --> 00:05:36.720 part and you got to require to eat some of my food blah blah blah. 92 00:05:36.759 --> 00:05:41.360 But it's got everything. Yeah. The other thing you probably I don't 93 00:05:41.360 --> 00:05:44.120 know if you can get a massage there, but it has everything. Yeah. 94 00:05:44.639 --> 00:05:46.160 My my, my son and his friends. They they went to the 95 00:05:46.199 --> 00:05:50.839 outdoor. Oh and they paid like one hundred, seven hundred dollars to get 96 00:05:51.079 --> 00:05:56.720 like one uh chase lounge thing, you know, and they like six s 97 00:05:56.720 --> 00:06:00.560 guys sat on right, guys in a hot dog. I didn't I didn't 98 00:06:00.560 --> 00:06:01.879 know. I would have liked to see that because the indoors they did. 99 00:06:02.040 --> 00:06:06.399 They thought it was a blast. Yeah, they had all right. Arizona 100 00:06:06.560 --> 00:06:11.800 Baseball has three of the top one hundred prospects for the twenty twenty five I 101 00:06:11.879 --> 00:06:16.720 will be draft pitcher Jack Laughlum, outfielder Caleb Ganzen, and pitcher Dylan would 102 00:06:16.920 --> 00:06:19.839 all right, well they again, they're gonna need those pictures for sure because 103 00:06:20.079 --> 00:06:24.959 there a bunch of theirs are gone. So yeah, well we'll see how 104 00:06:25.000 --> 00:06:30.040 that goes. I yeah, I know, you're the at college baseball coach 105 00:06:30.079 --> 00:06:32.000 is always worried that the guys are gonna you know, the recruits are gonna 106 00:06:32.000 --> 00:06:35.920 get drafted and stuff like that. So we'll see what what Chip ends up 107 00:06:35.920 --> 00:06:41.959 with when this is all said and done. Former Arizona running back Michael Wiley 108 00:06:42.199 --> 00:06:46.000 was drafted to the UFL team the DC Defenders. No did he was he? 109 00:06:46.160 --> 00:06:49.720 Uh? Wasn't he? What did he let go by the It was 110 00:06:49.839 --> 00:06:54.399 the Giants? No, No, that's the other guy. Yeah, the 111 00:06:54.480 --> 00:06:58.360 running back. So Michael Wiley's not with an NFL team. It's too bad. 112 00:06:59.000 --> 00:07:00.079 I think he might be. I can check that. I think he 113 00:07:00.120 --> 00:07:04.040 has just the option to play for the AM I thinking of Steve that went 114 00:07:04.079 --> 00:07:12.920 to the Giants TJ djj jjjj JJ Taylor's are the Patriots Giants? Oh, 115 00:07:12.959 --> 00:07:16.279 there's there's been Uh we had him on the show. Oh he don't, 116 00:07:16.439 --> 00:07:20.160 didn't Gary Brightwell? Is he still with the Giants? I think so? 117 00:07:23.079 --> 00:07:29.519 Okay, And the last thing I got tam USA basketball defeated Serbia one, 118 00:07:29.720 --> 00:07:33.360 five to seventy nine in an exhibition game today and United Air Emirates they kind 119 00:07:33.360 --> 00:07:38.000 of tearing it up, aren't they just a little bit? I mean, 120 00:07:38.160 --> 00:07:44.319 what do we think? I mean, Serbia's got Jokic. Yeah, I 121 00:07:44.319 --> 00:07:46.319 mean, I don't know how much stock you can put in these in these 122 00:07:46.360 --> 00:07:51.560 exhibitions. But you know they're not losing, right, They're not losing the 123 00:07:51.800 --> 00:07:56.240 I mean if if they lose one, people would lose their minds, right, 124 00:07:56.519 --> 00:07:59.079 So they're not losing them. But what do the wins mean? You 125 00:07:59.079 --> 00:08:01.519 know? Are they are good? Are they that good? Are they not? 126 00:08:01.439 --> 00:08:05.360 I don't know what do you thinks? To you? We'll see, 127 00:08:05.360 --> 00:08:09.399 I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. Sorry, okay. 128 00:08:09.959 --> 00:08:13.279 I don't want to give you a better information you have before. I 129 00:08:13.279 --> 00:08:16.879 don't know what's stopping you now. I'll give you great information yesterday. What 130 00:08:16.920 --> 00:08:22.120 I'm the lid. That's all I go. Okay, okay, what else 131 00:08:22.160 --> 00:08:24.560 we have? Anything else? No? You know, we're just uh, 132 00:08:24.079 --> 00:08:30.800 British Open starts tonight. Oh okay, yeah, I'm trying to think who's 133 00:08:30.800 --> 00:08:35.879 the betting favorite. Well, probably Scottie Scheffler again he always is. Bryson 134 00:08:35.919 --> 00:08:39.600 de Shamba is probably one of the favorites. Let me slok it up here. 135 00:08:39.960 --> 00:08:43.039 You've got. Scheffler is the favorite as the winner at plus five hundred. 136 00:08:43.120 --> 00:08:48.200 McElroy second at plus eight fifty. He was in contention last week. 137 00:08:48.639 --> 00:08:52.440 Xander Schoffley, Colin Marcy, who's been up there a lot. This new 138 00:08:52.480 --> 00:08:58.639 guy, Ludwig aberg Oberg plus two thousand. My guy's Tommy Fleetwood. For 139 00:08:58.679 --> 00:09:01.840 the week, he's a plus twenty five hundred. He'son what one, two, 140 00:09:01.840 --> 00:09:05.799 three, four, five, six, seventy ninth favorite eight favorite. 141 00:09:07.240 --> 00:09:13.559 That freeth dude to do that. So I really liked. The reason I 142 00:09:13.600 --> 00:09:16.000 like the British Opening is because when I wake up in the morning it's on. 143 00:09:16.320 --> 00:09:20.000 I don't have to watch you know, Dan Patrick or Dateline or whatever. 144 00:09:20.039 --> 00:09:22.200 When I get up, I can get a cup of coffee and watch 145 00:09:22.240 --> 00:09:26.279 some British Open. So that I think tea time start at ten thirty our 146 00:09:26.399 --> 00:09:31.000 time tonight, so that'll be fun and you're doing all the stuff and you 147 00:09:31.000 --> 00:09:33.840 have homework for me? What's your homework from yesterday? I'm still supposed to 148 00:09:33.879 --> 00:09:37.759 see the bill walk thirty for thirty and I'm still supposed to read the Kim 149 00:09:37.840 --> 00:09:43.600 Molky article. You were now, you were perfect Kim Molkey today, perfect 150 00:09:43.679 --> 00:09:52.320 Kim mulche today in what way? The utel beat writer? Oh, I 151 00:09:52.360 --> 00:09:56.919 said, Jay is back? Did you watch you listen? You watched You're 152 00:09:56.919 --> 00:10:03.279 on the You're on the thread, the thread? Yeah yeah, all right, 153 00:10:03.200 --> 00:10:05.320 see, God, I don't know if I'm going to read that. 154 00:10:05.519 --> 00:10:09.399 I got I got plans. Yeah, you know, this is a time 155 00:10:09.399 --> 00:10:13.360 when you can just you just watch it, you read it eventually. Point 156 00:10:13.440 --> 00:10:16.279 is it something that would be longer, too long to read like in the 157 00:10:16.320 --> 00:10:18.639 bathroom? Yeah, well, if you're gonna do that, you have to 158 00:10:18.679 --> 00:10:22.960 go about room a lot. It's a lot, but it's very interesting because 159 00:10:22.960 --> 00:10:26.799 you get an interesting view of who she is. And and there's a line 160 00:10:26.840 --> 00:10:31.039 or two in it that just reminds me of you because athletically remember well written, 161 00:10:31.279 --> 00:10:33.639 and remember it's a lot of controversial. Oh yeah, and I remember 162 00:10:33.639 --> 00:10:37.919 all that. I just couldn't remember if it was that Syr and if tan 163 00:10:37.039 --> 00:10:41.399 In terms of skating, it was. It was a pimple. It was 164 00:10:41.440 --> 00:10:43.519 nothing. It was nothing because it was it was more you worry about more 165 00:10:43.559 --> 00:10:46.600 than what it is. And it was just just a picture of her. 166 00:10:46.840 --> 00:10:50.000 Yeah, you know, if she's what she is, she is what she 167 00:10:50.080 --> 00:10:52.720 is, then maybe she doesn't like who she is maybe or maybe she thought 168 00:10:52.759 --> 00:10:56.879 there was more there. Yeah, yeah, well yeah, because she threatened 169 00:10:56.879 --> 00:11:01.480 tossue them and all that stuff, and yeah, it was nothing. It 170 00:11:01.519 --> 00:11:05.559 was it was it was a burger and it was tasty, but really, 171 00:11:05.759 --> 00:11:09.559 yeah, okay, I'll skip the burger next. Yeah, yeah, it's 172 00:11:09.639 --> 00:11:15.799 it's yeah, And I probably didn't like the questions she got asked and thought, 173 00:11:16.000 --> 00:11:18.559 you know, not the worst, but it's not the way it always 174 00:11:18.679 --> 00:11:22.960 is. So anyways, I don't know, all right, what else, 175 00:11:22.960 --> 00:11:24.200 Steve? You know, Yeah, I don't. I don't know. I 176 00:11:24.559 --> 00:11:28.639 was looking at the NFL camps. Should begin started here pretty quick, right, 177 00:11:30.320 --> 00:11:33.120 Yeah? Would you go in New York? There's nothing there? Right, 178 00:11:33.120 --> 00:11:35.120 you don't What do you do in New York? When you go have 179 00:11:35.200 --> 00:11:37.960 games? You go to New Jersey to watch the games? So do you 180 00:11:39.039 --> 00:11:41.440 do you do that? So? Yeah, so you're a fan, but 181 00:11:41.480 --> 00:11:45.080 you're you know, it's up to your parents because they have the money. 182 00:11:45.120 --> 00:11:48.720 Right, it's like an hour. So when I went to the Final four 183 00:11:48.799 --> 00:11:50.399 ninety five to you probably won't even born ninety five, right, Uh, 184 00:11:50.919 --> 00:11:54.960 that's thirty years. Uh. The Final four ninety five is in New Jersey, 185 00:11:54.960 --> 00:11:58.279 but we stayed in New York. No one even knew the hell the 186 00:11:58.320 --> 00:12:01.720 Final Four was there because New York it's it's as so many things going on, 187 00:12:01.879 --> 00:12:05.240 so many things going on that Yeah, you take the bus over the 188 00:12:05.240 --> 00:12:07.559 bridge and then bring you back and then it was like Tuesday. I mean, 189 00:12:07.639 --> 00:12:11.600 no one really give a crap. Yeah, yeah, that's why they 190 00:12:11.600 --> 00:12:13.120 need them in places that give a crab. Wait where did they have the 191 00:12:13.159 --> 00:12:18.200 Final Four in New York? Where? In New Jersey? At just at 192 00:12:18.240 --> 00:12:24.399 the arena at the Big but they weren't the domant stadiums by that time, 193 00:12:24.480 --> 00:12:28.519 and yeah in the not in Madison Square Garden in New Jersey. There's not 194 00:12:28.679 --> 00:12:31.279 there's not a dome stadium in New Jersey? Is there? They had a 195 00:12:31.320 --> 00:12:35.919 New Jersey I know that. I mean they got an arena. Uh, 196 00:12:35.960 --> 00:12:39.840 isn't there the Giants? Yeah, but there's not a don't there's not a 197 00:12:39.879 --> 00:12:46.320 dome stadium? So where where were I'm gonna I'm going to I was on 198 00:12:46.320 --> 00:12:50.799 that book because by that time, weren't they were Maybe by that time they 199 00:12:50.799 --> 00:12:54.200 were they were not having them and no, no, they I'm pretty sure 200 00:12:54.200 --> 00:12:56.799 that that was that was there. Ninety five was U c l A. 201 00:12:56.919 --> 00:13:01.320 Uh could be ninety six, but it's ninety five. I think nine n 202 00:13:01.720 --> 00:13:05.960 U c l A won it. But that was in the Kingdome? Was 203 00:13:05.960 --> 00:13:09.320 it? Was it a regional? Was it? I wouldn't go to New 204 00:13:09.360 --> 00:13:13.240 York to go to twinal four? Final four is in New York, New 205 00:13:13.320 --> 00:13:22.759 Jersey? Just right that google that Okay? Uh it was in ninety six, 206 00:13:24.279 --> 00:13:28.000 Okay, so it was in there, just in their arena then the 207 00:13:28.080 --> 00:13:31.519 connin Airlines arena. No, no, how big hoes your tenants? It 208 00:13:31.559 --> 00:13:37.279 seemed like it was huge, if I can remember correctly. Yeah, but 209 00:13:37.320 --> 00:13:41.759 that's not a stadium. What uh? I thought by that time they were 210 00:13:41.759 --> 00:13:43.440 having them in they were a stadium to me, Yeah, they were, 211 00:13:46.440 --> 00:13:50.120 No, because ninety four was in Charlotte, right that that was pretty ninety 212 00:13:50.120 --> 00:13:54.240 five was in the Kingdome. Ninety six was then it was in East Rutherford. 213 00:13:54.759 --> 00:14:01.039 So God, when did they start having them in stadiums? Because that 214 00:14:01.039 --> 00:14:03.919 that's you know, I thought, I thought, I thought right after Kansas 215 00:14:03.960 --> 00:14:07.399 City, because the year after Kansas City was in the Kingdome. I thought 216 00:14:07.440 --> 00:14:16.000 at that point they were not going to have final fours in anything but stadiums, 217 00:14:16.320 --> 00:14:20.840 so that, you know, that's let me see final four sits here 218 00:14:20.879 --> 00:14:24.159 we go after that larger dome stations. Uh, Okay, it was a 219 00:14:24.200 --> 00:14:28.120 twenty thousand that's the last time. That was the last time basketball first facility, 220 00:14:28.159 --> 00:14:33.039 basketball arena, we threw off the twenty thousand spectators supposed to be concluding 221 00:14:33.360 --> 00:14:35.200 that was the last time. Okay, that was the last that That's what 222 00:14:35.240 --> 00:14:39.960 it says here in New Jersey. After that dome shaped, the facilities took 223 00:14:39.000 --> 00:14:43.559 over. Okay from that. From that, that was before that too, 224 00:14:43.600 --> 00:14:48.279 though, because ninety six was the Meadowlands. Ninety seven would have been ninety 225 00:14:48.279 --> 00:14:52.200 seven was in the RCA Dome. So that's when yeah, oh, that's 226 00:14:52.279 --> 00:14:54.080 right. I was at that one. So that was the first one that 227 00:14:54.080 --> 00:14:56.519 they said, okay, oh and then and then they were having them a 228 00:14:56.559 --> 00:15:00.720 state where they if it was in a stadium, it was pushed up against 229 00:15:00.759 --> 00:15:03.919 one end. And then at some point I think it was the it was 230 00:15:03.960 --> 00:15:09.799 one that was at the one that was in in in Detroit at Ford Field 231 00:15:09.879 --> 00:15:13.159 where they started putting the court in the center. Okay, all right, 232 00:15:13.240 --> 00:15:18.159 I got it. Okay, okay, Well that was the last one that 233 00:15:18.200 --> 00:15:20.519 was in a basketball and I thought it was big. I thought it was 234 00:15:20.519 --> 00:15:24.360 a bigger place. I can't remember that far obviously. Yeah, because yeah, 235 00:15:24.480 --> 00:15:26.960 okay, let's take a break.

So I'm I love it. 309 00:20:41.759 --> 00:20:45.000 It's the best. Did you get juiced uff this time? You know when 310 00:20:45.000 --> 00:20:48.279 they're when they're coming up, or you start paying attention to you know who's 311 00:20:48.319 --> 00:20:52.240 who and stuff like that, are you Oh my god? Yes? But 312 00:20:52.440 --> 00:20:56.400 every every year at the Olympic Trials. So I actually texted, I know 313 00:20:56.440 --> 00:21:00.359 a name you guys will probably be familiar with Kellas Sanders. I texted her 314 00:21:00.839 --> 00:21:07.680 maybe the week of Olympic Trials starting for swimming, and I'd had this really, 315 00:21:07.759 --> 00:21:12.880 really, really intense dream where I was seated second going into finals in 316 00:21:12.880 --> 00:21:18.119 the hunter freestyle and I was in lane five and I ended up getting seventh 317 00:21:18.160 --> 00:21:21.119 and not making the team, and like I woke up in a cold sweat. 318 00:21:21.880 --> 00:21:25.359 So I mean, I don't know if it ever goes away, like 319 00:21:25.440 --> 00:21:29.799 the sale of watching the people make the team, a little bit of heartache, 320 00:21:29.839 --> 00:21:33.880 a little bit of sadmus. But yeah, Olympic trials and the Olympics 321 00:21:33.920 --> 00:21:37.319 are awesome. So let me ask you a dumb question, because we cover 322 00:21:37.400 --> 00:21:44.119 elite athletes all the time in college and in pro and you're you're obviously one 323 00:21:44.160 --> 00:21:48.039 of those elite athletes. How do you become an elite athlete? Let's say 324 00:21:48.079 --> 00:21:51.680 you're good? What do you can you just? Are you just good? 325 00:21:52.200 --> 00:21:55.640 Uh? How do you get to the next level? Yeah? What pushes 326 00:21:55.680 --> 00:21:57.440 you next? Yeah? So, first of all, see, there are 327 00:21:57.480 --> 00:22:03.240 no dumb questions that are just dumb people who ask questions. I'm just sitting 328 00:22:03.440 --> 00:22:07.519 you know, I adore you, So I think, yeah, if you're 329 00:22:07.559 --> 00:22:12.319 good, but you don't have the resources, or you have a coach that 330 00:22:12.400 --> 00:22:18.400 maybe isn't prepared to raise you up, or you are in a team sport 331 00:22:18.559 --> 00:22:22.640 and your team isn't very deep. I mean, what you know, being 332 00:22:22.680 --> 00:22:26.200 great isn't going to do you any good. So for me, like when 333 00:22:26.240 --> 00:22:30.359 people want to understand kind of like what it's like to be an elite athlete 334 00:22:30.480 --> 00:22:33.039 or how to get to an elite level, and I would say this with 335 00:22:33.039 --> 00:22:38.799 being a violinist, with being a singer, you know anything, you want 336 00:22:38.799 --> 00:22:45.960 to be the greatest Finnish carpenter, if you aren't surrounded by people who want 337 00:22:45.000 --> 00:22:52.839 to push you and raise your level of success, if you maybe aren't mature 338 00:22:52.960 --> 00:22:56.759 enough at the time to kind of respect the growth process, you know all 339 00:22:56.799 --> 00:23:00.519 of those things. Yeah, then you know, the world is filled with 340 00:23:00.640 --> 00:23:04.119 talented people who aren't doing anything that reminds me of So I'm sure you were 341 00:23:04.160 --> 00:23:07.960 you know these people, uh and you probably were teammates of this people have 342 00:23:08.119 --> 00:23:12.920 the talent but didn't want to be coached. Oh yeah, and and and 343 00:23:12.960 --> 00:23:21.240 what's said is I am very close with people who were so coachable and wanted 344 00:23:21.279 --> 00:23:23.920 to please and worked so hard and didn't have the talent level to reach that 345 00:23:25.160 --> 00:23:27.960 level of success. So it cuts both ways. Yeah, no, I 346 00:23:29.240 --> 00:23:33.720 hear, I hear that, because we see like in some of these individual 347 00:23:33.759 --> 00:23:37.039 sports, like a golfer, right, you see, how did that guy 348 00:23:37.039 --> 00:23:41.799 get or that person gets so good? Right when you know, I mean 349 00:23:41.319 --> 00:23:45.319 you know what, I've remember some people that you know, I covered a 350 00:23:45.319 --> 00:23:48.839 lot years ago. But you know, we're playing at Pima, playing at 351 00:23:48.839 --> 00:23:51.720 the Evane he said, Okay, they're pretty good, but I'll give you 352 00:23:51.759 --> 00:23:55.279 a name. Now we talk about all DeAndre Aiden. Okay, he's tall, 353 00:23:55.319 --> 00:23:56.599 he's good, but he's good. He's only when he wants to be. 354 00:23:56.799 --> 00:24:00.759 Yeah, you know, but they or they were, they were kind 355 00:24:00.759 --> 00:24:03.920 of average in college and all of a sudden they're superstars in in you know, 356 00:24:04.039 --> 00:24:07.039 in the in the major leagues or whatever. Trevor Hoffman, he was 357 00:24:07.039 --> 00:24:11.000 a shortstop, and he was a pretty good shortstop. He had a great 358 00:24:11.079 --> 00:24:11.880 arm, and all of a sudden, the guy's in the Hall of Fame, 359 00:24:11.960 --> 00:24:17.400 in the Baseball Hall. And I think like it was the magic So 360 00:24:17.640 --> 00:24:22.279 clearly, clearly these are amazingly talented athletes, right, you know, And 361 00:24:22.279 --> 00:24:27.519 and pretty much I would say that there are there diamond doesn't At any college 362 00:24:27.599 --> 00:24:33.680 level in sports, you're going to find talented people. What what was the 363 00:24:33.799 --> 00:24:38.279 magic sauce for them? Being you know, maguration maybe sort of someone like 364 00:24:38.319 --> 00:24:41.400 Trevor, like someone putting eyes on him saying, you know, I think 365 00:24:41.759 --> 00:24:45.079 I think he can probably be a pretty good reliever, Like what do you 366 00:24:45.079 --> 00:24:48.240 think about that? And and Trevor was mature enough at the time to be 367 00:24:48.359 --> 00:24:52.599 like I'd love to give that a shot. Let me try that out. 368 00:24:52.799 --> 00:24:57.400 You know, Yeah, there's you know that kind of luck. Sometimes it's 369 00:24:57.440 --> 00:25:02.559 made right. Sometimes it really is just plain dunblock, Like I don't think 370 00:25:02.559 --> 00:25:07.480 that you and I would be talking. And if we didn't have Frank Bush 371 00:25:07.519 --> 00:25:10.799 show up in you know, nineteen eighty nine, Well, I was gonna 372 00:25:10.799 --> 00:25:14.359 ask that when when did when did the switch come on for you that you 373 00:25:14.440 --> 00:25:17.119 thought, not only can I be a good college swimmer, I can be 374 00:25:17.119 --> 00:25:19.640 an Olympian? When did you? When did that realization happen? And how 375 00:25:19.680 --> 00:25:25.359 did that happen? So my freshman and sophomore years were I was an All 376 00:25:25.400 --> 00:25:27.720 American on the swim team, and I was probably going to four or five 377 00:25:27.759 --> 00:25:33.519 packses a week out of ten, like, not dedicated at all, not 378 00:25:33.960 --> 00:25:37.559 motivated, certainly, not respectful of the gifts that I had been given. 379 00:25:37.799 --> 00:25:45.519 And Frank and I had a little come to Jesus and so he like basically 380 00:25:45.519 --> 00:25:48.880 told me, you need to take two weeks away, you know, like 381 00:25:48.960 --> 00:25:52.640 I might kill you. So take two weeks away and we'll come back and 382 00:25:52.680 --> 00:25:56.039 have a conversation. And I about a week in, I woke up one 383 00:25:56.079 --> 00:26:00.920 morning and I was like, man, is this you want to live your 384 00:26:00.920 --> 00:26:03.720 life, like is this the kind of athlete you want to be? Like? 385 00:26:03.880 --> 00:26:07.680 Are you proud of yourself? You look in the mirror and you're like, 386 00:26:08.079 --> 00:26:11.920 oh yeah, I'm satisfied. So I called Frank and I was like, 387 00:26:11.960 --> 00:26:15.480 hey, I'd love to have a meeting with you. I feel like 388 00:26:15.559 --> 00:26:19.880 I had an epiphany. And I came and I had a conversation with him, 389 00:26:19.880 --> 00:26:26.079 and he like nodded and looked at his watch and I was like, 390 00:26:26.119 --> 00:26:29.519 okay, well practice starts in amount and a half hour. And I remember 391 00:26:29.559 --> 00:26:33.519 being so angry, like, dude, I'm telling you, like I'm going 392 00:26:33.599 --> 00:26:37.279 to be a star for you, like you know, well, of course 393 00:26:37.319 --> 00:26:41.079 I was the girl who cried wolf, like you know, the proof is 394 00:26:41.119 --> 00:26:45.160 in the pudding. So I spent literally like the next ten weeks. I 395 00:26:45.240 --> 00:26:49.720 never missed a practice morning night. I was crushing the weight room, I 396 00:26:49.839 --> 00:26:55.119 was crushing everything in the pool. And that was the summer I won my 397 00:26:55.119 --> 00:27:00.160 first national championship. I mean it sounds that easy. I'm clearly like there 398 00:27:00.160 --> 00:27:07.000 were other things in play. But if you really really try hard, like 399 00:27:07.599 --> 00:27:11.240 things will change. Will you become a national champion? That's not for me 400 00:27:11.279 --> 00:27:15.599 to say, but you know, half assing you know, excuse my French. 401 00:27:15.799 --> 00:27:19.880 Half assing everything certainly is only going to give you half of what you 402 00:27:21.079 --> 00:27:25.039 probably could be earning. I also know you and maybe a wrong and bear 403 00:27:25.079 --> 00:27:30.359 with these questions because I'm just a dumb question askers. You're type A and 404 00:27:30.480 --> 00:27:36.559 kind of crazy a little bit, so that helps. That helps for this, 405 00:27:36.759 --> 00:27:38.039 It does. Oh yeah, like I would, you know, I 406 00:27:38.119 --> 00:27:41.000 want to rip your heart out when I'm playing pick a ball mouth. Yeah, 407 00:27:41.200 --> 00:27:45.319 like that's really hard for it to That's hard for you know, to 408 00:27:47.559 --> 00:27:52.440 temper when you're young, you know, like getting kicked out of basketball games 409 00:27:52.480 --> 00:27:56.079 and fouling out like half of every basketball game when I was in high school 410 00:27:56.119 --> 00:28:03.599 and stuff. But you can turn that into something that's more internal and not 411 00:28:03.759 --> 00:28:08.440 external. Where I never really felt like I was competing with the people that 412 00:28:08.480 --> 00:28:12.920 I was swimming against. Those were my friends. I wanted to win because 413 00:28:14.000 --> 00:28:18.240 that was like what was inside my body, you know. And I do 414 00:28:18.359 --> 00:28:22.359 think you can hone that, but I don't think that you can. I 415 00:28:22.359 --> 00:28:30.160 don't think you can teach that happened to Chrissy Parham nineteen ninety two Olympian Arizona 416 00:28:30.359 --> 00:28:33.200 national champion. So Chrissy the Olympics are coming up, they're just a few 417 00:28:33.240 --> 00:28:37.039 weeks away. Think back to your time getting ready for the Olympics. What 418 00:28:37.079 --> 00:28:40.960 were the last couple of weeks, like you remember, what were you doing, 419 00:28:41.559 --> 00:28:44.680 What were you not doing right to make sure that you were ready. 420 00:28:45.160 --> 00:28:48.359 What's the preparation from here on out over say the last two three weeks before 421 00:28:48.400 --> 00:28:53.480 you start competing. So something really different this year, and they've done it 422 00:28:53.519 --> 00:28:56.839 a couple times since. In nineteen ninety two, we had Olympic trials in 423 00:28:56.920 --> 00:29:03.839 March and then the Olympics where like I swam July thirty, so so there 424 00:29:03.920 --> 00:29:08.400 was like a big window. We didn't go straight from trials to art, 425 00:29:08.480 --> 00:29:12.200 straight to a camp to you know, straight to the Olympic forever. So 426 00:29:12.200 --> 00:29:17.599 it was a little bit different. So between March and July for me, 427 00:29:18.200 --> 00:29:23.400 things like no more playing pickup ball at Bardown Gym. You know, like 428 00:29:23.960 --> 00:29:27.000 we're not gonna do that anymore. We're we don't need a you know, 429 00:29:27.319 --> 00:29:33.680 busted wrist or whatever. We're gonna we're gonna pay a little bit more attention 430 00:29:33.920 --> 00:29:37.440 to you know, how you're gonna taper without me around because back in the 431 00:29:37.480 --> 00:29:41.279 old days, like your coach didn't get to travel with you the way they 432 00:29:41.319 --> 00:29:45.880 do now. So some of the preparation is different in like timing and all 433 00:29:45.920 --> 00:29:49.440 that stuff whatever, but but some of it's the same. You want to 434 00:29:49.480 --> 00:29:53.559 stay healthy, you want to be rested, you want to be eating right, 435 00:29:53.960 --> 00:29:57.880 you want to enjoy the process. You know, you're not going to 436 00:29:57.960 --> 00:30:03.359 see very many athletes like You're gonna see serious faces, just like you do 437 00:30:03.440 --> 00:30:07.960 if it's you know, the World Series or it's the super Bowl, you're 438 00:30:07.960 --> 00:30:11.680 gonna see serious faces. You're also going to see people that are out there 439 00:30:11.720 --> 00:30:15.079 like this is what I do, man, Like this is what I made 440 00:30:15.119 --> 00:30:17.640 for. I'm gonna love it and I'm gonna have a really good time when 441 00:30:17.680 --> 00:30:21.480 I'm doing it. So I think a lot of it was the physical, 442 00:30:21.640 --> 00:30:25.359 the Hayes in the in the barn. It's the mental. It's not letting 443 00:30:25.400 --> 00:30:29.880 the pressure and the and the build up and all the excitement like get you 444 00:30:29.920 --> 00:30:33.880 distracted. I can't remember the opposition back in ninety two, maybe the Chinese 445 00:30:34.039 --> 00:30:38.279 women, But was there when you've gotten there, when you got into the 446 00:30:38.359 --> 00:30:41.160 pool that were getting ready to pull do were you thinking, oh gosh, 447 00:30:41.200 --> 00:30:45.400 she's tough, but I'm still gonna kick her ass. Were there people that 448 00:30:45.440 --> 00:30:48.960 you thought like that, or you just said I am oom and I'm gonna 449 00:30:48.960 --> 00:30:53.240 I'm gonna win. Yeah. I never really got super into like who my 450 00:30:53.319 --> 00:30:56.279 competition was. But by the time I went to the Olympics, I had 451 00:30:56.279 --> 00:31:00.480 already been ranked number one in the world, so like I did feel like 452 00:31:00.599 --> 00:31:03.559 it was mine to lose, which you know, I got second to a 453 00:31:03.640 --> 00:31:11.079 Chinese athlete. It's suspected doper. So like I feel like caveat that sometimes 454 00:31:11.400 --> 00:31:17.880 without trying to sound like surly Shirley Babyshas or whatever, but you you know, 455 00:31:18.160 --> 00:31:22.039 you have to, Like I don't think that there are very many athletes 456 00:31:22.480 --> 00:31:29.920 that you're giving respect to the people that you're performing against, but that's not 457 00:31:30.000 --> 00:31:33.799 the measure. Like I don't think Steph Curry is out there like, oh 458 00:31:33.839 --> 00:31:36.000 I wonder if I'm a better shooter than you know what I mean. Like 459 00:31:36.599 --> 00:31:40.680 I don't think Angel Reese is worried, like how many double doubles she just 460 00:31:40.720 --> 00:31:44.839 put under her belt, you know, like fifteen straight. Like she's out 461 00:31:44.839 --> 00:31:48.839 there just doing her thing and loving it and that's what's making her successful. 462 00:31:48.279 --> 00:31:52.880 Wow. Okay, I'm gonna ask you a very unfair question. Okay, 463 00:31:52.079 --> 00:31:55.680 this is we see. This is one of those you know, who's your 464 00:31:55.680 --> 00:31:59.680 favorite kid? Which one's your favorite kid? So you want a golden relay, 465 00:31:59.799 --> 00:32:02.680 actually two gold in relays, right because you were Yeah, and then 466 00:32:02.720 --> 00:32:09.359 you won a silver in an individual event, which one kind of feels better 467 00:32:09.359 --> 00:32:15.039 to you. So I hope this doesn't sound like a cop out. Friend, 468 00:32:15.240 --> 00:32:20.200 the Deadly Relay where we won the gold and broke the world record, 469 00:32:20.960 --> 00:32:25.839 like I am, I'm a team girl, like the relays were my most 470 00:32:25.920 --> 00:32:30.480 favorite thing about being an athlete, just like that's why I loved basketball, 471 00:32:30.920 --> 00:32:35.400 So that one is really special. I got to do that with my teammates. 472 00:32:35.839 --> 00:32:38.279 It was so exciting to break the world record. We crushed it like 473 00:32:38.359 --> 00:32:44.400 gold medal and stuff. However, I do want to say winning the silver 474 00:32:44.640 --> 00:32:49.279 when I quote should have won the gold, end quote, it was a 475 00:32:49.359 --> 00:32:53.079 really good reminder that you can do everything right and sometimes it's not going to 476 00:32:53.279 --> 00:32:59.400 end the way you want it to. And that's okay too. Okay, 477 00:33:00.160 --> 00:33:01.440 that doesn't feel like a cop out, No, no, it doesn't. 478 00:33:01.640 --> 00:33:07.680 So do the kids today. The athletes today amaze you, Oh my god, 479 00:33:07.960 --> 00:33:15.640 the women's swimming in America, the women's collegiate group that you know from 480 00:33:15.720 --> 00:33:20.839 Virginia, the young high school girls that made the team from Carmel, Indiana. 481 00:33:20.880 --> 00:33:23.240 You know, our brother made it too. Like they are they are 482 00:33:25.039 --> 00:33:30.279 such experts in their sport in they're in their like talented areas. Like I 483 00:33:31.200 --> 00:33:38.359 love watching people like Lily King, I love watching the Walsh sisters. I 484 00:33:38.359 --> 00:33:43.240 I mean, it's just it's breathtaking, Kay Douglas, Like who is it 485 00:33:43.519 --> 00:33:46.759 who wins the hundred freestyle, wins the two hundred? I am, but 486 00:33:46.880 --> 00:33:52.440 also wins the tune of breas Like this is like someone like Kenny Lawson definitely, 487 00:33:52.480 --> 00:33:55.000 you know, the most amazing one of the most amazing athletes probably to 488 00:33:55.039 --> 00:34:00.400 come out eve being really great in two sports. This would be like being 489 00:34:00.680 --> 00:34:06.640 a really great baseball pitcher, but you're also a great golfer, but you 490 00:34:06.720 --> 00:34:10.039 also swim and dive, Like I don't like that, doesn't none of those 491 00:34:10.079 --> 00:34:14.280 would go together? Yeah? Interesting? And yet there she is. She's 492 00:34:14.320 --> 00:34:17.280 like crushing breaking a world record, an American record, which is amazing. 493 00:34:17.320 --> 00:34:21.000 So let me ask you, so, if you swim against them with your 494 00:34:21.039 --> 00:34:25.760 time and their time is it are you far behind? No? And that's 495 00:34:25.800 --> 00:34:30.920 really funny that you are mentioning that because I have a friend who I swam 496 00:34:30.000 --> 00:34:35.320 with in college. He still is in Phoenix and we are very close. 497 00:34:35.400 --> 00:34:39.039 We you know, are talking swimming all the time, or swimming, basketball, 498 00:34:39.079 --> 00:34:43.599 baseball, whatever. We love talk about sports. And he texted me 499 00:34:43.719 --> 00:34:47.320 when when the world record was broken in the hunter fully at trials and he 500 00:34:47.440 --> 00:34:50.079 was like, hey, what was your time? And I was like, 501 00:34:50.119 --> 00:34:52.599 oh my god, like she crushes me, Like, you know, I 502 00:34:52.639 --> 00:34:58.000 went like a fifty eight something or whatever, And like two minutes later he's 503 00:34:58.000 --> 00:35:00.920 texting back, he goes, you would have made semi finals with that. 504 00:35:00.719 --> 00:35:06.000 Wow, are you kidding me? So, like, I'm not anywhere close 505 00:35:06.079 --> 00:35:10.320 to winning that ship has obviously passed, but you know, my time so 506 00:35:12.039 --> 00:35:15.159 I could throw down, so it makes me feel good.

She is fun, high, strong, is 567 00:39:38.599 --> 00:39:44.639 all heck. And the thing about it is, I think I think it 568 00:39:44.679 --> 00:39:47.440 takes one of one of those people to be who they are, Yeah, 569 00:39:47.440 --> 00:39:52.119 because they're elite athletes. Yeah, you have to have kind of a sense 570 00:39:52.159 --> 00:39:57.679 of urgency and everything you do right, because again, the difference between the 571 00:39:57.719 --> 00:40:02.159 great athlete who makes some thing of that and the great athlete who doesn't is 572 00:40:01.840 --> 00:40:06.679 is the mental aspect of it. Right. Who's willing to do the prep, 573 00:40:06.960 --> 00:40:09.119 Who's willing to do the work, no question, Who's willing to uh, 574 00:40:09.199 --> 00:40:13.400 you know, sacrifice all those things get in order to in order to 575 00:40:13.599 --> 00:40:15.880 give you a name right now, and I think I think the world has 576 00:40:15.920 --> 00:40:19.840 been of a player here, one of the best collideriefs. Yep, how 577 00:40:19.880 --> 00:40:22.679 do you have that Damon Sadoma attitude? He would have been in the league 578 00:40:22.679 --> 00:40:24.719 for twelve fifteen years, right right, kicking the crap out of the committy. 579 00:40:24.760 --> 00:40:27.519 It was, Yeah, he was, he was. He was kind 580 00:40:27.519 --> 00:40:29.920 of a little bit laid back. Yeah, he didn't have that sense of 581 00:40:30.039 --> 00:40:34.119 urgency that you need to have, right you know. And the passion maybe 582 00:40:34.199 --> 00:40:36.960 is a word. Yeah, and that counts, man, Yeah, it 583 00:40:37.039 --> 00:40:38.559 does. And then and then there's son, Oh, got a call, 584 00:40:38.960 --> 00:40:43.079 take this call. Hi, you're on the air, Andine on the ball 585 00:40:43.760 --> 00:40:46.440 the afternoon you got It's just your buddy, gave all you got, Dave. 586 00:40:46.519 --> 00:40:50.760 Where do you been, man, it's been a long time. I'm 587 00:40:50.840 --> 00:40:57.880 just trying to apply for zerobo conservation positions at in Fresno. Okay, So 588 00:40:58.000 --> 00:41:02.760 I'm just trying. I'm just busy trying the trying to pursue a job in 589 00:41:04.000 --> 00:41:07.480 wildlife conservations. Did you did you you finished school? Did you finish school? 590 00:41:07.480 --> 00:41:15.880 Finally, so I decided not to go to Arizona because because I don't 591 00:41:15.920 --> 00:41:21.599 want to like get to call it debt and moving from present, moving from 592 00:41:21.679 --> 00:41:30.199 Preston to Arizona, it's probably definitely gonna be a big money muncher. And 593 00:41:30.679 --> 00:41:37.880 I don't know how much University of Arizona is charging for over for how does 594 00:41:37.000 --> 00:41:44.679 state students go to the University Arizona. So on the like I said, 595 00:41:44.719 --> 00:41:50.239 I'm a huge wildcatsan, but you gotta be realist. All right, we'll 596 00:41:50.239 --> 00:41:54.239 get best luck on all that. So what's on your mind today? Just 597 00:41:54.480 --> 00:42:00.440 kind of want to be us with you guys. Honestly I said this before. 598 00:42:00.599 --> 00:42:06.000 Arizona needs to win to get the recruiting momentum, and they need to 599 00:42:06.679 --> 00:42:10.440 they need to win every single game, and so that's what I need to 600 00:42:10.480 --> 00:42:15.360 say. Well, that's a lot the You know, the Kansas State game 601 00:42:15.400 --> 00:42:21.719 is gonna be a huge game, right, yeah, you game is gonna 602 00:42:21.719 --> 00:42:28.760 be even bigger. The UCF game is probably gonna be on the verge of 603 00:42:28.800 --> 00:42:34.199 an upset. So yeah, So, Gabe, the thing that we've been 604 00:42:34.239 --> 00:42:37.320 talking about is seven and a half wins over seven and a half, over 605 00:42:37.400 --> 00:42:39.679 eight and a half. Uh, you'll probably say over eight and a half. 606 00:42:40.880 --> 00:42:45.840 I don't. I don't do the betting because I don't bet. I 607 00:42:45.840 --> 00:42:52.199 don't bet. I don't understand betting. But I think us as Arizona fans 608 00:42:52.239 --> 00:42:59.960 will be happy for a nine wins to loss. But you gotta you gotta 609 00:43:00.079 --> 00:43:04.920 strike with with the on the You gotta strike when the getting is good. 610 00:43:05.239 --> 00:43:08.880 Yeah. Yeah, I think you do not need to play stupid games and 611 00:43:08.920 --> 00:43:14.599 win stupid product is you gotta you gotta have the initiative. You gotta be 612 00:43:14.760 --> 00:43:20.039 like a Napoleon Bonaparte. Okay, what what record? What's the most wins 613 00:43:21.239 --> 00:43:22.840 that would be a disappointment to you know what? I'm trying to get a 614 00:43:23.159 --> 00:43:27.760 you know, would you be happy with eight and four? Uh? Probably 615 00:43:27.800 --> 00:43:30.360 not with seven and five. You probably would be with nine and three. 616 00:43:30.400 --> 00:43:32.920 Where do they have to get to for you to feel like this was a 617 00:43:32.920 --> 00:43:37.880 good season with all the expectations and stuff that are out there for this team. 618 00:43:37.559 --> 00:43:40.920 I will be happy with an eight and four record. I will go 619 00:43:42.239 --> 00:43:45.280 I'll be happy with a nine and two record. I'll be even more happy 620 00:43:45.360 --> 00:43:52.039 if Arizona can make a run and go in the national championship. Knock on, 621 00:43:52.119 --> 00:43:57.679 would But I don't think a seven and five would be would be great 622 00:43:57.840 --> 00:44:02.239 right to involved motivating the Arizona sad base. Like I said a couple of 623 00:44:02.280 --> 00:44:07.480 weeks ago, it was nineteen ninety nine, Arizona was on the top of 624 00:44:07.519 --> 00:44:15.000 the moon and it basically went crashing down. And in twenty fifteen the same 625 00:44:15.039 --> 00:44:20.599 old, same old thing happened, which is when not the Arizona Wildcouts were 626 00:44:20.679 --> 00:44:24.920 basically Arizona widely the coyote. Yeah, so real quick, Gabe, how 627 00:44:24.960 --> 00:44:29.000 does the kid out of friends though? And you're about twenty something, right, 628 00:44:29.000 --> 00:44:31.599 twenty eightish, I think if I can remember quickly falling over the UV. 629 00:44:32.840 --> 00:44:38.480 So, I have four friends from my hat from my high school. 630 00:44:38.599 --> 00:44:44.079 So I went to Central High School. One of my friends, his name 631 00:44:44.159 --> 00:44:49.079 was Nick Wilson. He was the number twenty eight, was the running back, 632 00:44:50.519 --> 00:44:53.519 and my other friends were at Devon Brewer. He was kind of like 633 00:44:53.559 --> 00:45:00.440 a backup. Another person that went to Arizona was Ke Wilson, and another 634 00:45:00.519 --> 00:45:07.920 person was Shariff Williams. And and they went to the University of Arizona, 635 00:45:07.079 --> 00:45:15.039 so and so yeah, yeah, and my other friend they went to and 636 00:45:15.039 --> 00:45:20.000 and my other friend that I graduated, who who was on the who played 637 00:45:20.000 --> 00:45:27.000 football, So I played football with them and another friend I that we know. 638 00:45:28.719 --> 00:45:32.519 His name is his name is Smallwood and he went to the school, 639 00:45:32.679 --> 00:45:37.960 the school up north. But I don't root for them. So you can 640 00:45:37.039 --> 00:45:44.880 calm down, you can make you can take a big breath. So I'm 641 00:45:45.039 --> 00:45:50.599 I'm still rocking the American College, the Red, White and Blue. Good 642 00:45:50.840 --> 00:45:52.000 all right, Kate, thanks for calling, man, appreciate it. We'll 643 00:45:52.039 --> 00:45:57.719 talk again. I know anytime.

Since I was looking 645 00:46:01.440 --> 00:46:05.679 at the wind, total is still eight on draft kings, probably still seven 646 00:46:05.719 --> 00:46:07.239 and a half one. I don't think anything's changed. I was looking at 647 00:46:07.280 --> 00:46:14.400 the odds for the Big twelve Championship. You've got utadd three plus three twenty 648 00:46:14.719 --> 00:46:16.199 is it to win it? To win the Pack to win the Big twLF 649 00:46:16.239 --> 00:46:21.159 Championship.

This much better? Yes, okay, first things first, keep 654 00:46:45.400 --> 00:46:53.360 the Raiders out of your mouth. I was trying to I was trying to 655 00:46:53.400 --> 00:47:00.599 call in yesterday. But our guys in the league that that was their lifelong 656 00:47:00.679 --> 00:47:07.800 dream to play for the Raiders once again. I wanted to try really hard 657 00:47:07.800 --> 00:47:09.599 to be a Raiders fan because they were going to be you know, I 658 00:47:09.800 --> 00:47:13.280 don't really care about the Cards. I thought I could become a Raiders fan 659 00:47:13.320 --> 00:47:15.119 with them being in Vegas, and I just haven't been able to turn that 660 00:47:15.239 --> 00:47:21.760 button, you know, push that button and hit it. So they got 661 00:47:21.760 --> 00:47:25.519 to figure it out. They got to start winning and winning in the playoffs 662 00:47:25.559 --> 00:47:30.719 and stuff like that. But you know, because it's hard, man, 663 00:47:30.079 --> 00:47:35.320 it made it. Being a Raiders fan has has made us a tough, 664 00:47:35.480 --> 00:47:44.039 resilient group. I considered a football game and not screaming yell yeah, because 665 00:47:44.360 --> 00:47:49.840 the bottom is going to fall out at some point. Yeah yeah. But 666 00:47:49.920 --> 00:47:54.239 what I've been wanting to bring up was I was looking at Kansas's basketball schedule 667 00:47:54.320 --> 00:48:00.280 last year for last season, uh huh, and the come the rhythm the 668 00:48:00.320 --> 00:48:05.239 Pac twelve schedule always had We're gonna lose that, we lose that, Yeah, 669 00:48:05.239 --> 00:48:07.000 we totally lose that. There's gonna be games all different days of the 670 00:48:07.039 --> 00:48:12.960 week. Yeah, Kansas started on a Saturday, then they played Wednesday, 671 00:48:13.000 --> 00:48:16.440 then they played Saturday, then they played Tuesday, then they played Saturday, 672 00:48:16.480 --> 00:48:22.119 then they played Monday. And I think you're gonna hear a lot more complaining 673 00:48:22.280 --> 00:48:29.039 from the people that were complaining that the Big Twelve Championship wasn't gonna be in 674 00:48:29.039 --> 00:48:32.039 in Vegas. Yeah. Yeah, they're gonna be whining and crying. I 675 00:48:32.079 --> 00:48:36.840 never know when the game is. Yeah, there's no travel partners like like, 676 00:48:37.119 --> 00:48:39.360 uh, you know the way the Big Twelve said up right, just 677 00:48:39.840 --> 00:48:44.800 geographically. Yeah, so there's no travel partners where you go and you know, 678 00:48:45.079 --> 00:48:47.159 ASU plays the team that you play, you know, two days later. 679 00:48:47.280 --> 00:48:50.440 Not No, there's none of that. It's it's scattered all over the 680 00:48:50.440 --> 00:48:52.599 place. There's gonna be games all different days of the week. And that's 681 00:48:52.639 --> 00:49:00.519 because of what we have, back to back road games with West Virginia and 682 00:49:00.960 --> 00:49:05.119 Direction of Florida. Yeah, and ones on Tuesday, and then the next 683 00:49:05.159 --> 00:49:08.039 game is not till the next Saturday. Yeah, you're gonna stay out there 684 00:49:08.119 --> 00:49:14.440 all that time to not have to come home, or it's gonna be interesting, 685 00:49:14.679 --> 00:49:19.480 Doug. This is when the charters take effect, right right. But 686 00:49:20.239 --> 00:49:23.000 now it's you know one, you'd like to think that the schedule makers will 687 00:49:23.039 --> 00:49:27.440 figure that out, right, don't don't send Arizona to the East Coast and 688 00:49:27.559 --> 00:49:30.719 back to back games or send somebody from the East Coast to you know, 689 00:49:30.760 --> 00:49:36.360 to here. But since they nobody thought maybe we should schedule Arizona and Kansas 690 00:49:36.639 --> 00:49:39.400 twice in this first year, nobody thought that was smart. So who knows 691 00:49:39.400 --> 00:49:43.639 what they're gonna do with the schedule. But yes, be prepared for games 692 00:49:43.679 --> 00:49:46.760 to be all different nights. It's not gonna be Thursday Saturday or Thursday Sunday 693 00:49:46.760 --> 00:49:52.320 anymore. Yeah, it's it's gonna be crazy. Yeah, it's gonna be 694 00:49:52.440 --> 00:49:57.079 nuts. It's gonna take some time to get used to that because the the 695 00:49:58.360 --> 00:50:04.199 Thursday Saturday rid on more the Thursday Sunday if it was Arizona U C. 696 00:50:04.400 --> 00:50:09.480 L A. I mean, you just had that rhythm of the basketball season. 697 00:50:09.519 --> 00:50:13.920 It was a lot like it was a lot like the high school seasons 698 00:50:14.199 --> 00:50:19.360 where they played like Tuesday and Friday nights. Yeah, you know, and 699 00:50:19.800 --> 00:50:22.159 you had that rhythm. And now it's gonna be what I thought the game 700 00:50:22.280 --> 00:50:25.920 was tomorrow, Oh no tonight. Yeah, it'll be funny, it'll be 701 00:50:25.960 --> 00:50:30.400 interesting. To see how Arizona fans absorbed that. But again it's because ESPN 702 00:50:30.440 --> 00:50:34.679 wants games on, you know, every night of the week, and that's 703 00:50:34.280 --> 00:50:38.800 that's that's all about. So thanks Tony, Hey, take care guys. 704 00:50:38.840 --> 00:50:42.159 All right, thanks a much, thanks for the call. No, he's 705 00:50:42.239 --> 00:50:45.079 right, I mean that's gonna be odd for you know, because that rhythm 706 00:50:45.159 --> 00:50:47.440 has been since it became the Pac ten right, right. This year was 707 00:50:47.519 --> 00:50:50.920 kind of odd too because they did to go for one game and then come 708 00:50:50.960 --> 00:50:52.440 back. Do you remember do you remember the I know this was in my 709 00:50:53.039 --> 00:51:00.840 first year covering basketball, but every week there was one trip was Sunday or 710 00:51:01.000 --> 00:51:07.440 Saturday Monday. Remember those It was always a Monday night. That's because like 711 00:51:07.440 --> 00:51:12.239 when Arizona uh the UCLA, Arizona's two games that they won here in the 712 00:51:12.280 --> 00:51:15.800 bc LA, that was a Saturday Monday. The usc game was on a 713 00:51:15.880 --> 00:51:22.079 Monday, the Spaghetti Yes. And I remember the first first year I covered 714 00:51:22.639 --> 00:51:29.159 basketball the u c l A, the l A trip was a Saturday Monday. 715 00:51:29.480 --> 00:51:31.440 Yeah. Well, by the time I started covering in ninety one, 716 00:51:31.639 --> 00:51:36.639 it was it was Thursday, Saturday, Thursday, Saturday, and Thursday Sunday, 717 00:51:36.800 --> 00:51:38.519 right, And that was great because you get to spend the weekend in 718 00:51:38.519 --> 00:51:43.920 the night city get away. My first year, the Bay Area trip was 719 00:51:43.960 --> 00:51:45.800 a Thursday Sunday, so that was cool. I had an actra day of 720 00:51:45.840 --> 00:51:52.440 San Francisco restaurant, big time Manchoo all day, all day. Yeah, 721 00:51:52.519 --> 00:51:52.880 no, it was fun. It was fun, a lot of fun. 722 00:51:52.920 --> 00:51:55.440 And then moving from Stanford to Calier back but it was real quick. I 723 00:51:55.519 --> 00:51:59.360 was going through the odds here. So you top plus three twenty to win 724 00:51:59.440 --> 00:52:04.079 the big twelve of Kansas State next to plus three eighty. So those are 725 00:52:04.119 --> 00:52:07.960 Arizona's first two, you know, the their thirty fourth games of the season. 726 00:52:07.400 --> 00:52:12.679 Arizona is plus one thousand. In between, You've got Kansas, Oklahoma 727 00:52:12.719 --> 00:52:16.239 State at seven fifty, Kansas at nine hundred, then Central Florida, Iowa 728 00:52:16.320 --> 00:52:20.719 State in Arizona all at plus one thousand, one thousand, one hundred bucks 729 00:52:20.719 --> 00:52:28.119 to win eleven hundred about. No, that's a it's a good price. 730 00:52:28.320 --> 00:52:31.119 Yeah, a little scratch ten bucks out one hundred and ten. Yeah, 731 00:52:31.719 --> 00:52:35.719 yeah, that's worth that thing's worth it. I've already got a bunch of 732 00:52:35.800 --> 00:52:38.559 money on the over over eight gap.
