WEBVTT 1 00:00:24.239 --> 00:00:30.879 Good evening everybody, and welcome to another edition of Fire Up. March Madness 2 00:00:31.359 --> 00:00:37.000 has begun and we've even had upsets today. Oh my goodness, gracious, 3 00:00:37.000 --> 00:00:42.359 and I have a crew to talk with me tonight. Okay, let's introduce 4 00:00:42.439 --> 00:00:48.560 the crew. I'm gonna start with my co host, smoking Jeremy be Hello, 5 00:00:48.679 --> 00:00:52.320 Candy, happy to be here. Let's talk some sports. Sounds good 6 00:00:52.320 --> 00:00:56.240 to me. That sounds good to me. Mister George Iiicorn, Long time 7 00:00:56.280 --> 00:01:03.159 no see, It's been a long time since I saw you, and a 8 00:01:03.200 --> 00:01:06.640 little bit. We had fun on the last show, but good to be 9 00:01:06.719 --> 00:01:12.760 back. We did, we did keep it up, Jeremy b. And 10 00:01:12.799 --> 00:01:17.920 then we have mister Ralph Williams. How are you, Ralph? I'm good 11 00:01:17.959 --> 00:01:21.319 at Candy, thank you, and all the panel, thank you. You're 12 00:01:21.359 --> 00:01:26.640 welcome. And our special guest tonight, mister Wilvogel, how are you well 13 00:01:27.920 --> 00:01:33.400 doing great? March Madness is in the air. One of the best times 14 00:01:33.439 --> 00:01:38.040 of the year, it's and I'm glad to be back. Awesome, awesome, 15 00:01:40.519 --> 00:01:47.280 So will since you are our special guest, tell us about a little 16 00:01:47.319 --> 00:01:53.760 recap of today. Maybe you know upset that you didn't see coming. Well, 17 00:01:53.879 --> 00:01:59.799 the upset that I didn't see coming today was just happened. Oakland's going 18 00:01:59.840 --> 00:02:04.959 to be mission Kentucky and I told my friend, I said, do you 19 00:02:04.959 --> 00:02:07.439 know where the school is? He's like, uh, duh, it's in 20 00:02:07.480 --> 00:02:13.120 California. I said, no, this Oakland is in Michigan. So props 21 00:02:13.159 --> 00:02:19.319 to them beating a blue blood in Kentucky. A fourteen teed being a three 22 00:02:19.439 --> 00:02:22.879 seed, Yes, it's not the same feeling as a one being a sixteen 23 00:02:22.960 --> 00:02:27.439 being a one, but you know what, beating a blue blood in the 24 00:02:27.479 --> 00:02:31.360 March Madness in the round of sixty four, that always feels good, especially 25 00:02:31.439 --> 00:02:36.680 when you're the lower seed. Some other things I really liked that happened today. 26 00:02:37.919 --> 00:02:43.919 Oregon player Jermaine cozen Arts scored forty points. That was huge. She 27 00:02:44.080 --> 00:02:53.199 propelled them to beat South Cana Illinois coach Mark Sorry. Illinois player Marcus Demasque 28 00:02:53.520 --> 00:02:57.960 had a triple double. I think it's like the tenth triple double in March 29 00:02:58.080 --> 00:03:02.759 Madness history, something like that I read. And then lastly, Michigan State 30 00:03:02.800 --> 00:03:09.560 coach Tom Izzo won his twentieth first round game. So a lot of history 31 00:03:09.599 --> 00:03:15.240 to be made in one night of March Madness. And we still have today 32 00:03:17.800 --> 00:03:22.080 today is so continue, we have tomorrow, we have Sire Sunday, and 33 00:03:22.080 --> 00:03:24.919 we have the rest of the tournament, so we may have even bigger storylines 34 00:03:24.960 --> 00:03:30.599 that happened. So yes, that's what cut my eye, mister Ralph. 35 00:03:30.680 --> 00:03:37.759 What's caught your eye? Well, Dukine beat b Yu today. Those of 36 00:03:37.800 --> 00:03:40.879 you who don't know, Dukaine is from the Pittsburgh area here right down the 37 00:03:40.919 --> 00:03:46.400 street from where the NCAA is having a tournament from PPG Paines Arena, and 38 00:03:46.800 --> 00:03:51.439 so you know they won today. And then Oakland just beat Kentucky. And 39 00:03:51.560 --> 00:03:55.960 John Caliperi is the head coach of Kentucky's from Pittsburgh here. It seems like 40 00:03:57.000 --> 00:04:01.000 every time he comes to Pittsburgh he loses. About five six years ago he 41 00:04:01.080 --> 00:04:05.919 lost to Robert Morse and the n I t at Robert Morse. So it 42 00:04:06.000 --> 00:04:11.520 seems like every time he comes back to town he has bad luck. So 43 00:04:11.960 --> 00:04:15.840 you know, but that's what caught my eye today. And this Oakland beating 44 00:04:15.879 --> 00:04:24.759 you know Kentucky today or just now wow in Virginia getting practically almost blown out 45 00:04:25.519 --> 00:04:30.959 the other night there or whatever and by Colorado State that that has to be 46 00:04:30.040 --> 00:04:36.279 humiliating and I'm waiting to see what NC State's going to do tonight. George, 47 00:04:36.360 --> 00:04:42.399 what's caught your eye today? Well, obviously, it's a great day 48 00:04:42.480 --> 00:04:48.040 to be a fan of two schools in the state of Michigan and Michigan State 49 00:04:48.160 --> 00:04:57.279 University Spartans wine the early game twelve fifteen and now prime time the Oakland Grizzlies 50 00:04:57.879 --> 00:05:02.480 defeating number three Kentucky. Unbelievable. I just did not see that coming. 51 00:05:03.240 --> 00:05:05.800 But I'll tell you what. They got a coach, Greg Campy, who 52 00:05:05.879 --> 00:05:12.920 is all business. The guy's been there forty years. Forty years. Answer 53 00:05:12.959 --> 00:05:16.560 your friend's question, will No, it's not Oakland, California. They're named 54 00:05:16.680 --> 00:05:21.879 after the city. Well, we actually have a city called Oakland in Oakland 55 00:05:21.879 --> 00:05:26.480 County, but the Oakland University, of course, is in a city called 56 00:05:26.560 --> 00:05:32.519 Rochester. And uh so that's that's a very uh it's it's it's a Division 57 00:05:32.560 --> 00:05:35.920 one program. But it's taken them a hell of a long time to get 58 00:05:35.920 --> 00:05:42.519 this opportunity to knock off a number three seeds. So I'll tell you what 59 00:05:42.600 --> 00:05:46.639 Candy, Like I said, between the Spartans advancing and now Oakland advancing, 60 00:05:46.079 --> 00:05:51.759 everybody in Michigan is just going Gaga right now. So despite the fact that 61 00:05:51.959 --> 00:05:56.959 U of M was horrible and it's just a great it's a great feeling, 62 00:05:57.040 --> 00:06:01.319 like Will said, the the unbelievable fun we have with March Madness and this 63 00:06:01.360 --> 00:06:08.199 tournament is just mind boggling. And uh that's my that's my take so far 64 00:06:08.240 --> 00:06:11.879 on the tournament, keeping it localized here. So that's to that point of 65 00:06:11.920 --> 00:06:21.360 view, Jeremy, what surprised you today? The fact that I had to 66 00:06:21.399 --> 00:06:26.560 work so much, I barely saw anything, but kudos to Oakland, I 67 00:06:26.639 --> 00:06:30.959 will be honest. The other team that he said got blowed out. That 68 00:06:31.040 --> 00:06:36.800 kind of floored me, or real close to bloatout. There really isn't a 69 00:06:36.839 --> 00:06:41.959 lot other than that. If you look at what's going on right now the 70 00:06:41.959 --> 00:06:48.000 blue book, can you explain March madness for the Assie Oh, I just 71 00:06:48.040 --> 00:06:54.680 started read that March madness is they take that it's actually the top sixty eight 72 00:06:54.800 --> 00:06:58.279 right now, isn't it because of the playoffs playing games that they did. 73 00:06:58.360 --> 00:07:03.519 Yesterday's succeed So there's a field of sixty four which started today. Yesterday was 74 00:07:03.560 --> 00:07:09.480 the field of sixty eight. There's a four at large teams in college basketball 75 00:07:10.000 --> 00:07:14.040 that get a chance to play to get to the national championship in a one 76 00:07:14.160 --> 00:07:19.800 and done format. So they come in and you get a sixty eight seed 77 00:07:19.879 --> 00:07:24.519 versus a one seed over here, and then you get the sixty seventh seed 78 00:07:24.600 --> 00:07:28.879 versus this one seed in the sixty fifth, and so on and so forth, 79 00:07:29.279 --> 00:07:32.759 and so you get get it back down to the sixty four. That's 80 00:07:32.759 --> 00:07:38.439 how it worked. We have seen it where a one seed has lost in 81 00:07:38.519 --> 00:07:42.879 the play in day. So to say it isn't it can't happen. It 82 00:07:43.079 --> 00:07:47.600 can. It just doesn't happen very often. Didn't it happen last year? 83 00:07:48.319 --> 00:07:51.000 Yeah? It was last year when it happened. That's why I mentioned it 84 00:07:51.160 --> 00:07:57.839 exactly. I was, wasn't it the sixty fifth seed that beat the one 85 00:07:57.879 --> 00:08:03.160 from the Southeast region? That I'm not sure? Yeah, I can't. 86 00:08:05.360 --> 00:08:09.439 And that's what I think. It was the sixty fifth seed versus the you 87 00:08:09.480 --> 00:08:15.680 know, because one seed from each region versus the worst team just outside of 88 00:08:15.720 --> 00:08:20.120 their field. Yeah, how horrible is that to be the guy that is 89 00:08:20.199 --> 00:08:24.319 the worst seed outside their field. It's nice to get a chance to play, 90 00:08:24.399 --> 00:08:28.519 but you know, lex Reala, You're going, man, what jot 91 00:08:28.560 --> 00:08:35.000 we got? I'll tell you I'll tell you you're about March madness. I 92 00:08:35.120 --> 00:08:39.360 was in Vegas and in nineteen ninety nine, and I'm standing down at this 93 00:08:39.440 --> 00:08:43.720 hot dog stand. They had hot dogs and French fries. And if you 94 00:08:43.720 --> 00:08:46.159 were a guest at the hotel, and it stayed at the Frontier, at 95 00:08:46.159 --> 00:08:50.200 the old Frontier at the time, if you're guests at the hotel, you 96 00:08:50.279 --> 00:08:54.399 got for five dollars, you've got a big, huge hot dog in French 97 00:08:54.440 --> 00:08:58.000 fries. It actually was street dollars if you were a you know, if 98 00:08:58.039 --> 00:09:01.879 you had a room there. So I'm standing dinner. I'm standing dinner. 99 00:09:01.919 --> 00:09:07.320 I got this guy standing behind me, and he's smell like a liquor store 100 00:09:07.799 --> 00:09:11.679 in a brewery. And I and he's standing with one dollar in his hand, 101 00:09:13.639 --> 00:09:16.320 and he said he lost all his money on Syracuse. That was the 102 00:09:16.399 --> 00:09:20.159 year all the upsets came. What's a toss? State? Wright State beat 103 00:09:20.240 --> 00:09:24.000 Syracuse? What's a toss? State beat Kentucky or somebody. And it was 104 00:09:24.120 --> 00:09:28.919 just it was just amazing. And I saw people coming out of the sports 105 00:09:28.919 --> 00:09:33.080 book like somebody shot their dog, and you know, with gloomy faces. 106 00:09:33.600 --> 00:09:37.720 And the guy said he lost all his money on Syracuse. And he was 107 00:09:37.759 --> 00:09:41.639 standing in line there to get a ninety nine cent fruit or shrimp cocktail because 108 00:09:41.679 --> 00:09:46.159 that was all he had. Yeah, he had that one dollar and he 109 00:09:46.200 --> 00:09:50.440 said helew lost money on Syracuse. I'll never forget that one. You know 110 00:09:50.480 --> 00:09:56.799 what's crazy is my brother a few years ago for Christmas gave me these March 111 00:09:56.840 --> 00:10:00.159 Madness tickets and we didn't know who was playing there. We just knew was 112 00:10:00.200 --> 00:10:03.720 in Charlotte. Ironically enough, the game I went to, one of the 113 00:10:03.759 --> 00:10:11.000 games I went to was when UNBC beatn Virginia. Wow. I met some 114 00:10:11.279 --> 00:10:16.000 UNBC students who gave me a UNBC T shirt and I so have it to 115 00:10:16.039 --> 00:10:20.919 this day. It's the only time a sixteen seed beat on one seed. 116 00:10:20.600 --> 00:10:26.159 Wow. Yeah, I do remember that. And then Jeremy, I think 117 00:10:26.200 --> 00:10:33.559 you might have been referring to last year number sixteen fairly Dickinson sixty three, 118 00:10:33.919 --> 00:10:41.000 number one Perdue fifty last year. Yeah, but they won their playing game 119 00:10:41.039 --> 00:10:43.559 as well. How they got there to be that seed is what I was 120 00:10:43.559 --> 00:10:46.519 getting in. Yeah. Yeah, very good, very good. And yours 121 00:10:46.559 --> 00:10:50.559 too, well, yours was a tremendous upset. Oh my god, I 122 00:10:50.600 --> 00:10:56.399 remember that twenty eighteen number one Virginia going down to UNBC. Yeah. Yeah. 123 00:10:56.440 --> 00:11:01.639 And you know what's crazy is the year after Virginia lost to u NBC, 124 00:11:01.840 --> 00:11:07.559 they turn around and win the national championship the year should they get upsets? 125 00:11:07.759 --> 00:11:09.360 You're right, yes they did that. I think they be Texatteck, 126 00:11:09.440 --> 00:11:15.840 didn't they? Yes? Yes? And then let's not forget was it three 127 00:11:15.879 --> 00:11:20.840 years ago the amazing run by Virginia Commonwealth all the way? Oh yeah? 128 00:11:20.440 --> 00:11:24.240 Or wasn't that right? Didn't they go all the way to you? Yeah? 129 00:11:24.279 --> 00:11:35.000 They did. Chicago a bunch of Cinderella teams. Yeah yeah, and 130 00:11:35.159 --> 00:11:41.879 San Diego State nobody predicts that last year? Oh yeah, let's not forget 131 00:11:43.559 --> 00:11:48.039 that. Also was the year it wasn't just Loyola. It wasn't the main 132 00:11:48.080 --> 00:11:54.759 branch of Loyola. It was Loyola Marrimount. Yeah, the one was that 133 00:11:54.799 --> 00:11:58.840 the one Patino was coaching or no, he's the one coaching Iowa and New 134 00:12:00.360 --> 00:12:03.000 right. Yeah, he was Layel in New York. Yeah, New York. 135 00:12:03.120 --> 00:12:05.320 Okay, I knew he was one of them, but I didn't know 136 00:12:05.320 --> 00:12:13.480 which one. So yes, kudos to Michigan State, Kudos to Dukesney Creighton 137 00:12:13.559 --> 00:12:18.919 won magover Akron, Arizona. One big over Long Beach, North Carolina, 138 00:12:20.000 --> 00:12:26.720 one big over Wagner. Illinois won pretty big over Morehead State. Oregon upset 139 00:12:26.840 --> 00:12:33.399 South Carolina as well, though that was eleven seed beating a sixth seed, 140 00:12:33.840 --> 00:12:39.360 and I think typically we've seen the seed that wins the most is twelve five. 141 00:12:39.519 --> 00:12:41.600 Normally I thought in upset, it's not necessarily eleven six, but I 142 00:12:41.600 --> 00:12:48.279 think it's only the five. So yes, Dayton won. That wasn't an 143 00:12:48.360 --> 00:12:54.000 upset, but that was a close game, sixty three sixty Oakland did squeak 144 00:12:54.039 --> 00:13:01.399 it out eighty to seventy six, and Texas won beat Colorado State. So 145 00:13:01.000 --> 00:13:07.759 the question is there are some games tomorrow. Anyone want to predict an upset 146 00:13:09.320 --> 00:13:13.440 that they think will happen tomorrow. I can't even remember who the games are 147 00:13:13.480 --> 00:13:20.000 tomorrow. You know what. I'm just gonna say this. I didn't pick 148 00:13:20.039 --> 00:13:24.519 them in any of my brackets. It's okay. I wouldn't say they're gonna 149 00:13:24.519 --> 00:13:26.840 beat him, but I think they're gonna give them a fight. I can 150 00:13:26.879 --> 00:13:31.879 see Vermont beating Duke because you know what, Duke had a really bad ACC 151 00:13:33.159 --> 00:13:35.159 tournament. And I'm not saying this just because I'm a target. The old 152 00:13:35.159 --> 00:13:39.960 and I don't like Duke. Douke had a really bad ACC tournament showing and 153 00:13:41.440 --> 00:13:46.039 they lost to NC State, who eventually ended up winning it. Yes, 154 00:13:46.159 --> 00:13:50.720 it looks good when you lose an eventual champion. But you know what, 155 00:13:50.240 --> 00:13:56.960 why not Vermont beating Duke? Shoot, that would be that would be big 156 00:13:56.000 --> 00:14:01.320 because then another blue blood would go down. So yeah, I got Vermont 157 00:14:01.360 --> 00:14:07.879 beating Duke. Well, how about Coldgate? Coldgate beating their fourteen seed against 158 00:14:07.879 --> 00:14:11.759 Baylor number three tomorrow, that'll be an interesting game. And then u A 159 00:14:11.960 --> 00:14:16.480 be course the San Diego State. You a bet might pool that, you 160 00:14:16.480 --> 00:14:20.080 know, an upset off those two teams. Mm hmmm, I got, 161 00:14:20.919 --> 00:14:24.279 I got just a small one of mini upset. I don't really think it 162 00:14:24.639 --> 00:14:31.000 could qualify, but I got you know, Texas A and M is that 163 00:14:31.039 --> 00:14:35.320 tomorrow over Nebraska? Yes? Yeah, And they did get Nebraska and eight 164 00:14:35.360 --> 00:14:39.960 C they gave A and M a nine state come on, so they're pretty 165 00:14:39.960 --> 00:14:43.639 evenly matched. So I mean, I'm I'm stretching things a little bit here. 166 00:14:43.159 --> 00:14:46.480 And uh, And I also, of course like uh, I like 167 00:14:46.679 --> 00:14:52.440 FAU to beat Northwestern too, But FAU is an eight and Northwestern is a 168 00:14:52.559 --> 00:14:54.720 nine. That's not an upset. But uh, and then you know, 169 00:14:54.840 --> 00:15:03.679 Candy, your Wisconsin Badgers played tomorrow, correct, Yes, James Madison, 170 00:15:03.919 --> 00:15:07.919 Yeah, you know those guys. That's one of those sleeper teams. To 171 00:15:07.120 --> 00:15:11.679 James Madison, I did pick you know, Wisconsin to win though tomorrow. 172 00:15:11.559 --> 00:15:18.200 Yeah. Tomorrow night's Longwood versus Houston. That could be an upset. Charleston 173 00:15:18.320 --> 00:15:24.639 versus Alabama, Grambling State versus Produced. I mean, they're all underdog teams, 174 00:15:24.639 --> 00:15:26.559 so we'll see what they do tomorrow. It could be upsets again. 175 00:15:28.240 --> 00:15:33.320 Yeah, and everyone I know is picking New Mexico State over n C State, 176 00:15:33.360 --> 00:15:37.039 And I think NC State is gonna win because how I think they've won 177 00:15:37.120 --> 00:15:43.200 like eleven in a row. Yeah. Their last loss was their last regular 178 00:15:43.240 --> 00:15:46.679 season game against pitt That was their last loss. I was that that game? 179 00:15:48.399 --> 00:15:52.440 Yeah? Oh yeah, I'm taking them. Sorry, Jemmy, GoAhead. 180 00:15:52.080 --> 00:15:58.559 Do you want the list of games for tomorrow? Sure? Northwestern versus 181 00:15:58.559 --> 00:16:03.639 that Au, Colgate versus Baylor, UAB versus San Diego State, Western, 182 00:16:03.720 --> 00:16:10.919 Kentucky versus Marquette, Stetson versus Yukon, New Mexico versus Clemson, Yale versus 183 00:16:10.960 --> 00:16:15.399 Auburn, Colorado versus Florida. And that's the one where I think there might 184 00:16:15.440 --> 00:16:19.120 be an upset because Colorado has been playing some good ball and they're a ten 185 00:16:19.240 --> 00:16:23.279 seed and Florida is the seventh seed. That's not that much of an upset, 186 00:16:23.720 --> 00:16:29.240 but it would be considering the blue blood in the tournament that Florida has 187 00:16:29.279 --> 00:16:33.919 been over the years. Texas A and M in Nebraska, Vermont versus Duke, 188 00:16:34.840 --> 00:16:45.360 Grambling State versus Purdue Paul Charleston versus Alabama, Longwood, Longwood versus Houston 189 00:16:45.440 --> 00:16:51.679 University. James, you already said, James Mathison TCU versus Utah State and 190 00:16:51.840 --> 00:17:00.320 Grand Canyon versus Saint Mary's California, and Jana, that's right. In The 191 00:17:00.519 --> 00:17:04.920 University is actually only a plus two hundred to the Saint Mary's minus two fifty, 192 00:17:06.319 --> 00:17:11.599 So that's actually not that bad of odds. The biggest odds against anybody 193 00:17:11.680 --> 00:17:18.640 winning is Longwood versus Houston. Houston is a minus five thousand and Longwood is 194 00:17:18.680 --> 00:17:25.279 a plus sixteen hundred. Wow. Wow. So that's one hundred and sixty 195 00:17:25.400 --> 00:17:33.359 to one odds. Everybody, if you're if you're gonna bet, you know 196 00:17:33.480 --> 00:17:37.720 that's the one to bet on. That that powerball and mega millions. They're 197 00:17:37.720 --> 00:17:41.640 all worth would get you a boat load of money these days, because oh 198 00:17:41.720 --> 00:17:51.000 yeah, a ten dollars back can get your sixteen hundred mm hmm exactly exactly. 199 00:17:51.400 --> 00:17:53.599 Oh, I take that back. I scrolled up a little further. 200 00:17:53.640 --> 00:18:00.559 There's one worse twenty five hundred and one, the twenty five, which is 201 00:18:00.559 --> 00:18:04.559 two fifty to one Grambling State over Purdue, which is a negative ten thousand 202 00:18:04.599 --> 00:18:08.880 to win. Oh z, well, you know, hats off the Grambling 203 00:18:10.000 --> 00:18:14.119 State. Yeah, they won the play game. Hey, nobody, no, 204 00:18:14.680 --> 00:18:17.279 you know, this is the furthest they've ever gone, right, Ralph, 205 00:18:17.759 --> 00:18:21.319 I don't know. I don't think they ever won a first round game. 206 00:18:21.960 --> 00:18:26.279 Who Decaine? No, No, Grambling, No, they haven't won. 207 00:18:26.559 --> 00:18:30.240 No, not at all. They never won one either, Ducaine. 208 00:18:30.279 --> 00:18:34.160 The last time Dukane was in the NCAA was in nineteen seventy seven, and 209 00:18:34.279 --> 00:18:41.480 uh Norm Nixon was part of that team. So wow, Yeah, and 210 00:18:41.519 --> 00:18:45.759 they didn't make it past the first round. And Stetson versus Yukon gets the 211 00:18:45.799 --> 00:18:52.759 same as Grambling State. There's a couple of them there. Hey, we 212 00:18:52.839 --> 00:18:56.160 could see what I saw in nineteen ninety nine. You never know, you 213 00:18:56.200 --> 00:19:02.759 know, you could be seen. It's an excite time you're even if you're 214 00:19:02.759 --> 00:19:07.480 not necessarily a basketball fan, because I think a lot more people become college 215 00:19:07.519 --> 00:19:11.519 basketball fans during this time because a lot of people make out the brackets, 216 00:19:11.599 --> 00:19:15.279 a lot of people follow it. It's always interesting to see, like how 217 00:19:15.279 --> 00:19:21.440 many brackets as we get further on this weekend, how many brackets are busted, 218 00:19:21.960 --> 00:19:26.039 and how many actually they still have left that are good. I'll be 219 00:19:26.039 --> 00:19:30.359 honest with you. Wisconsin has two teams in Wisconsin and Marquette. I'm pulling 220 00:19:30.359 --> 00:19:34.559 for both of them. Mauett's. Marquette's the number two seeds, so they're 221 00:19:34.599 --> 00:19:40.079 having a much better year and they're supposed to get their star player back for 222 00:19:40.319 --> 00:19:42.759 the tournament, Kolik, who didn't play in the Big East tournament. For 223 00:19:42.799 --> 00:19:48.079 those people that were watching the Big East and saw Yukon take it, did 224 00:19:48.519 --> 00:19:52.720 Yukon looked good, don't get me wrong, but they did not take it 225 00:19:55.119 --> 00:20:00.359 by a lot in that Big East tournament, considering Marquet's player was not playing 226 00:20:02.559 --> 00:20:07.880 right right, But it's always an interesting time. And Florida, we actually 227 00:20:07.880 --> 00:20:11.880 have five teams, five different teams in the tournament, which I thought was 228 00:20:11.920 --> 00:20:18.680 pretty impressive for a States. Yeah, yeah, okay, So anybody else 229 00:20:18.720 --> 00:20:23.799 want to talk anything more about March Madness, any last minute comments or anything 230 00:20:23.880 --> 00:20:29.519 like that. I'm good. I don't have any. Okay, So I'm 231 00:20:29.519 --> 00:20:32.680 going to a topic. I'm gonna surprise all of you because I didn't tell 232 00:20:32.720 --> 00:20:36.160 any of you guys I was putting this topic on here at all. But 233 00:20:36.279 --> 00:20:44.680 I thought it was very interesting. Today the Dodgers started, and I'm gonna 234 00:20:45.079 --> 00:20:49.400 I'm gonna not I'm gonna mispronounce his name. I know it. Yoshibu Ya 235 00:20:49.799 --> 00:21:00.000 Yamamoto today made his major league debut when they played in Seoul. He made 236 00:21:00.319 --> 00:21:06.240 all of one inning. He's a right hander. He recorded three outs, 237 00:21:06.680 --> 00:21:11.480 five runs on four hits, one walk, and one hit batter in Thursdays. 238 00:21:11.640 --> 00:21:17.200 He's twenty five years old, and he labored through forty three pitches, 239 00:21:17.240 --> 00:21:23.759 with only twenty three of them landing in the strike zone. What did you 240 00:21:23.799 --> 00:21:30.880 guys think about, knowing that we've been going through spring training that his first 241 00:21:32.000 --> 00:21:36.640 game he can't even make it through the first inning and only forty three pitches. 242 00:21:37.160 --> 00:21:41.160 George, Well, I'll tell you what, Candy, I was really 243 00:21:41.200 --> 00:21:45.039 shocked to hear that. I mean, I know it was a slug fest 244 00:21:45.200 --> 00:21:49.319 of San Diego, you know, winning this second game there at Korea's fifteen 245 00:21:49.359 --> 00:21:56.359 to eleven. But yeah, he did not look at all like the million 246 00:21:56.599 --> 00:22:02.400 dollar baby that the Dodgers hope they got when they signed him. Uh that 247 00:22:02.559 --> 00:22:07.000 was a big splashy signing, just like Otani was. And and yeah, 248 00:22:07.039 --> 00:22:11.240 he looked horrible. You're right. I mean, forty three pitches and only 249 00:22:11.279 --> 00:22:17.519 twenty three were strikes. And and it wasn't just him, I mean on 250 00:22:17.559 --> 00:22:22.200 the other side of the jer Musgrove gave up five runs too. He pitched 251 00:22:22.240 --> 00:22:26.720 two point two thirds inning for San Diego as the starter. But I mean, 252 00:22:26.799 --> 00:22:33.200 this guy, Yamamoto, he's he's gonna have to really go back to 253 00:22:33.279 --> 00:22:37.240 the drawing board, so to speak, and his next start, which as 254 00:22:37.240 --> 00:22:41.000 we know, won't come until you know, late in March when the official 255 00:22:41.039 --> 00:22:45.559 regular season begins. But yeah, I was surprised, Candy. I did 256 00:22:45.640 --> 00:22:49.039 not expect that from him. Today. They gave him on the off season 257 00:22:49.160 --> 00:23:00.279 a twelve year, five million dollar contract. Is the largest guaranteed contract a 258 00:23:00.279 --> 00:23:06.279 picture in m LB history. It's got place for the Dodgers, you said, 259 00:23:06.880 --> 00:23:10.680 yes, yeah, well that's the Dodgers. They give big money out 260 00:23:10.759 --> 00:23:14.400 to people and then, and I've said this many times, they've had arguments 261 00:23:14.400 --> 00:23:18.200 with Dodger fans and people who cover the Dodgers. Uh you know whose names. 262 00:23:18.240 --> 00:23:22.240 I'm not gonna mention here, but uh, you know, I've had 263 00:23:22.240 --> 00:23:23.960 this argument with them, and I tell him every year and I'm always right. 264 00:23:25.279 --> 00:23:29.079 They always fail in the playoffs, you know, and they got they 265 00:23:29.079 --> 00:23:32.680 spent all his money, and I think, I think this is the year 266 00:23:32.720 --> 00:23:34.680 that Dave Roberts might get fired if they don't make it past the first round 267 00:23:34.720 --> 00:23:41.640 of playoffs. Will your thoughts? I agree with that he may get fired 268 00:23:41.640 --> 00:23:45.640 if they don't make the advance to the first round of the playoffs. I'm 269 00:23:45.680 --> 00:23:55.759 shocked. Yes, it's definitely an adjustment going from pitching in Japan to the 270 00:23:55.839 --> 00:24:02.519 major leagues. But the pressure was on him twenty five years old. It's 271 00:24:02.559 --> 00:24:06.200 hard to make an impact right away. But yeah, it's disappointing to see 272 00:24:06.279 --> 00:24:10.319 him struggle that much in a first game, Like I wish he pitched better, 273 00:24:10.319 --> 00:24:12.240 but you know who else didn't play well in that game? Otani? 274 00:24:12.279 --> 00:24:19.119 Otani went one for five, Yes, Otani game game before. But Otani, 275 00:24:19.839 --> 00:24:25.039 uh struggled this game. But you know what, like George said, 276 00:24:25.039 --> 00:24:27.319 you'll have to go back to the drawing board, figure out what pitches work 277 00:24:27.440 --> 00:24:34.519 for him. Maybe spend a little time after practice one day or after a 278 00:24:34.559 --> 00:24:37.880 game one day, just a little bit, not too long, and get 279 00:24:38.039 --> 00:24:41.680 better communication with you and the catcher so he can be on sync. Not 280 00:24:41.799 --> 00:24:47.359 saying it's the catcher's fault, just working with your catcher to see which pitches 281 00:24:47.480 --> 00:24:52.279 he likes, which witches he doesn't like, which he thinks are favorable towards 282 00:24:52.279 --> 00:24:57.000 the pitcher. But yeah, it's disappointing, but you know what, it 283 00:24:57.599 --> 00:25:02.640 happens to the beast, to the pictures sometimes. But yeah, it's definitely 284 00:25:02.640 --> 00:25:07.799 an adjustment period for sure. For yeah, I'm Momodo, Jeremy, your 285 00:25:07.839 --> 00:25:12.519 thoughts. All I know is when that money hit his bank account, he 286 00:25:12.640 --> 00:25:18.519 started singing like he was from Stix. Domo Ara got to mister Rabato whatever 287 00:25:18.640 --> 00:25:26.519 his name is, because he's getting paid. This fail is what it's looking 288 00:25:26.640 --> 00:25:30.440 like. Twenty three strikes out of forty three pitches. That means twenty of 289 00:25:30.440 --> 00:25:33.279 them were outside the zone. One of them was a walk. We don't 290 00:25:33.319 --> 00:25:36.359 even know what the count was of that walk. Was it four and oh? 291 00:25:36.519 --> 00:25:41.839 Was it four and one? Who cares. It's a travesty, you 292 00:25:41.920 --> 00:25:45.079 know when you play that bad as a picture. Because the picture sets the 293 00:25:45.119 --> 00:25:51.799 mood for the defense, the defense also starts to fail they you start getting 294 00:25:52.680 --> 00:25:56.319 what was it that they called it in the movie made Major League? If 295 00:25:56.319 --> 00:26:00.839 you olay a ball like that again, I'm gonna make make you do remember 296 00:26:00.880 --> 00:26:04.920 that yep, So you'll not putting your body in front of it to make 297 00:26:04.960 --> 00:26:10.480 the stop. So you stop the bleeding. That's what he's talking about. 298 00:26:10.759 --> 00:26:12.359 Don't just sit there and lay your glove and the hole and it made it 299 00:26:12.400 --> 00:26:19.720 pass me mm hmm, yeah, that part of it, go ahead. 300 00:26:21.279 --> 00:26:23.160 That's all part of the game. It's the mental part of the game. 301 00:26:23.880 --> 00:26:30.880 If your picture stinks, your defensive mental attitude stinks. Correct. Correct. 302 00:26:32.039 --> 00:26:38.200 What surprises me is he has struggled all spring training. He is posting right 303 00:26:38.240 --> 00:26:49.240 now an eight point three eight era point across nine in three starts. Yet 304 00:26:49.319 --> 00:26:55.480 we gave him kind of a contract. Come on, Dodger, are you 305 00:26:55.599 --> 00:26:59.720 kidding me? Come on? Oh my, and it's twelve years too, 306 00:27:00.519 --> 00:27:07.759 I'm like. And the breaking news was that JD. Martinez agrees to a 307 00:27:07.839 --> 00:27:12.480 one year, twelve million dollar contract with the New York Mets. The interesting 308 00:27:12.640 --> 00:27:19.160 part of JD. Martinez's contract. He obviously the deal is pending because he's 309 00:27:19.160 --> 00:27:23.960 pending a physical, but it will pay him four point five million this season 310 00:27:25.799 --> 00:27:33.359 and one point five million in deferred money from years twenty thirty four to twenty 311 00:27:33.440 --> 00:27:45.880 thirty eight. Wow, that's almost that's almost the Bobby Bania contract contract. 312 00:27:48.279 --> 00:27:55.079 He's still collected, but I look for somebody to pay me a million dollars 313 00:27:55.119 --> 00:27:57.839 a year or whatever he gets. Yeah, it has to do with the 314 00:27:57.880 --> 00:28:03.240 luxury tax, and I get it, but still really that far away? 315 00:28:03.720 --> 00:28:07.799 Come on, Yeah, well, he's a good DH but he's up there 316 00:28:07.839 --> 00:28:12.400 in age. But look at Joey Johnny's contract. They did the same thing, 317 00:28:12.519 --> 00:28:17.440 and he's not even playing right now because he just had that UC surgery 318 00:28:17.480 --> 00:28:22.400 and he hasn't fully recovered. Him getting that two million a year for twenty 319 00:28:22.480 --> 00:28:30.240 years. Oh, that's forty million dollars think about it. As soon as 320 00:28:30.279 --> 00:28:36.480 he's done, the remainder of that seven hundred million dollar contract is due. 321 00:28:37.400 --> 00:28:42.400 You want to talk about ruining a franchise, Imagine the luxury tacks on seven 322 00:28:42.480 --> 00:28:49.440 hundred million in one year for a player. Yeah, yeah, that was 323 00:28:49.480 --> 00:28:56.319 just crazy, you know, I I wanted the Tigers to give him another 324 00:28:56.519 --> 00:29:00.960 chance, but they wouldn't budge. They would not bring our Tenez back. 325 00:29:00.960 --> 00:29:06.640 They're really really trying hard to go with the youth movement here in Detroit. 326 00:29:07.240 --> 00:29:10.680 But it sure would have been nice to have a veteran presence and a bat 327 00:29:10.759 --> 00:29:15.240 that maybe you could win two to three four games for the team. I 328 00:29:15.319 --> 00:29:18.000 mean, I don't know. He can still hit, he can't field. 329 00:29:18.119 --> 00:29:22.039 But the Tigers were not going to budget. They weren't going to bring in 330 00:29:22.039 --> 00:29:29.559 an elder statements as a lack of a better terman elder citizen and Gen Martinez 331 00:29:29.599 --> 00:29:34.880 there, They're going with the kid Carrie Carpenter as primary DH. Okay, 332 00:29:34.920 --> 00:29:41.400 so let's switch to more of Jeremy's wheelhouse. Let's switch to a little football, 333 00:29:41.440 --> 00:29:47.119 and I'm going to talk about coach Prime. Coach Prime does not visit 334 00:29:47.880 --> 00:29:53.480 prospects houses. They have to come to him. He has never gone to 335 00:29:53.799 --> 00:30:00.400 their house. By contrast, Texas coach Steve Starkesian has made one hundred and 336 00:30:00.440 --> 00:30:07.720 twenty eight off campus recruiting visits, and before Jim Harbin left Michigan, he 337 00:30:07.920 --> 00:30:14.839 had visited one hundred and forty five different people's houses So the question is as 338 00:30:14.880 --> 00:30:18.960 a recruit, do you want a head coach to come to you or not? 339 00:30:21.079 --> 00:30:25.119 Jeremy, you can start with this one. You know, it really 340 00:30:25.119 --> 00:30:29.279 depends on the situation. What if you are one of these kids that grew 341 00:30:29.359 --> 00:30:33.599 up in the poor neighborhood and your parents' house isn't that great. Do you 342 00:30:33.680 --> 00:30:37.599 go and rent a hotel room to have the coach visit you? Or go 343 00:30:37.680 --> 00:30:44.799 rent an apartment with your family for a month with a special deal, paying 344 00:30:44.839 --> 00:30:48.480 extra rent just to look like you have a nice livable space for a coach 345 00:30:48.480 --> 00:30:53.240 a visit. I think it would be better if kids did more in campus 346 00:30:53.319 --> 00:31:00.440 visiting than coaches going to their houses, just because think about this. If 347 00:31:00.480 --> 00:31:03.279 you make less than twenty thousand dollars a year right now, you're in the 348 00:31:03.319 --> 00:31:07.640 poverty level. Your average rent for a one bedroom apartment is seventeen hundred and 349 00:31:07.680 --> 00:31:17.039 fifty dollars nationwide, your average income is fifteen thousand a year. Wow. 350 00:31:17.880 --> 00:31:23.440 Yeah, so your rent on average nationwide from the highest to the lowest is 351 00:31:23.480 --> 00:31:27.920 seventeen fifty. That means nationwide, there's a bunch of people that can't afford 352 00:31:27.920 --> 00:31:33.880 a one bedroom apartment because they're coming up two thousand, five hundred dollars short 353 00:31:33.200 --> 00:31:38.839 a year, and that that's putting it into perspective for those of us that 354 00:31:40.759 --> 00:31:44.519 did come from a family. That was a night when middle income meant something. 355 00:31:45.920 --> 00:31:49.559 Correct. I'm not trying to be political about it. I'm being fiscal 356 00:31:49.599 --> 00:31:56.799 about it. I agree. I agree, Jeremy. I know I'm this 357 00:31:56.920 --> 00:32:00.920 is behind on a past topics, but I'm gonna put up some comments because 358 00:32:00.920 --> 00:32:04.559 I really need to go to our We need to address some of our people 359 00:32:04.559 --> 00:32:07.839 that are in the commenting on the show here if you could read them for 360 00:32:08.000 --> 00:32:13.559 us. Absolutely. George Mason made an insane run a few years back economics 361 00:32:13.559 --> 00:32:22.200 and athletics at the same school. Go Pioneer or Grizzlies taking a oh you 362 00:32:22.480 --> 00:32:29.000 already has made me in a big point lead in my bracket. Pictures are 363 00:32:29.039 --> 00:32:32.000 more finicky than that, Minders, and this is true. That is true. 364 00:32:32.200 --> 00:32:38.640 Eddie Chatting in saying what's up from Arizona have to acknowledge all the people 365 00:32:38.640 --> 00:32:42.799 in the chat room, because without them, you know, we just be 366 00:32:42.839 --> 00:32:46.599 talking between ourselves. Right when James Burgess said in New York City, you 367 00:32:46.680 --> 00:32:52.079 can't live indoors for less than seventy five thousand a year. I believe that 368 00:32:54.680 --> 00:33:00.680 anybody else want to comment on coaches going to them or them the coaches. 369 00:33:00.720 --> 00:33:05.079 Okay, mister Will, Yeah, I agree with Jeremy. I think it's 370 00:33:05.079 --> 00:33:08.400 better for the student athlete to go to the campus because then you can see 371 00:33:08.400 --> 00:33:16.119 the team's facilities and the field, and you get to meet potentially your future 372 00:33:16.279 --> 00:33:23.319 teammates and your future coaches and your future professors and like, it gets you 373 00:33:23.599 --> 00:33:30.720 into like feels like you are at the college, like gets you more comfortable 374 00:33:30.799 --> 00:33:35.640 with going to the college leaving home and not when you first get there and 375 00:33:35.680 --> 00:33:37.000 you're like, oh my god, it's going to be so hard do with 376 00:33:37.200 --> 00:33:43.480 just here. Yes, it's better because then you can get accommodated with meeting 377 00:33:43.519 --> 00:33:47.240 your future teammates and coaches and stuff. So yes, I fully agree with 378 00:33:47.359 --> 00:33:53.839 Jeremy it is better for the student athlete to go to said college to visit 379 00:33:55.880 --> 00:34:01.640 Ralph. Your comments, well, if some a recruit, uh, you 380 00:34:01.680 --> 00:34:06.880 know, there's two ways you could spend this. Will Will and Jeremy have 381 00:34:06.960 --> 00:34:10.639 a point where you know it would be best for the athlete to go to 382 00:34:10.679 --> 00:34:15.000 the university. But also if I'm if I'm an athlete, a student athlete. 383 00:34:15.079 --> 00:34:17.800 I want to see the coach come and talk to me and my family. 384 00:34:19.199 --> 00:34:22.239 And there's things that the parents have questions they want to ask. And 385 00:34:22.440 --> 00:34:27.159 sometimes some of the parents can't go to the university with the child or with 386 00:34:27.280 --> 00:34:30.519 the recruit, okay, so they have to stay home. So sometimes going 387 00:34:30.559 --> 00:34:36.599 to the home is an advantage, okay, but there's advantages to both of 388 00:34:37.000 --> 00:34:40.639 them. There's advantages to going to you know. But I think Dion Sanders 389 00:34:40.719 --> 00:34:44.920 is kind of taking it out out of proportion here, and that's something he 390 00:34:45.000 --> 00:34:49.119 would do, you know, stay there and let people come and visit him 391 00:34:49.559 --> 00:34:53.559 where you know, other coaches I know that you know, gone to go 392 00:34:53.599 --> 00:34:59.000 to everybody's home homes, watch the watch the movie Blue Chips. Nick Nolty 393 00:34:59.239 --> 00:35:01.719 went to all the brut's homes, and I mean and the one kid he 394 00:35:01.800 --> 00:35:06.159 went to in Indiana there had a farm host that you know, kind of 395 00:35:06.159 --> 00:35:07.960 looked like a barn, you know what I mean, So you know, 396 00:35:08.039 --> 00:35:10.400 it doesn't matter what the house looks like. And then he went to the 397 00:35:10.440 --> 00:35:15.239 projects to go see that other one in Chicago, and you know, so 398 00:35:15.159 --> 00:35:19.639 you know, both ways work, it's just how how you spin it off. 399 00:35:21.480 --> 00:35:24.840 George your comments and I'd like you to read what James. I'm gonna 400 00:35:24.840 --> 00:35:30.360 put it up what James Burgess is saying. Now, Okay, James says 401 00:35:30.800 --> 00:35:37.719 her aiden when you of them walked him out onto the field of the Big 402 00:35:37.760 --> 00:35:42.440 House, they had an announcer call his name into the empty stadium, made 403 00:35:42.519 --> 00:35:46.719 up his mind to go to U of M right then. And I did 404 00:35:46.760 --> 00:35:53.800 not remember that specific incident, but Candy already stated the facts about Jim Harborough 405 00:35:53.880 --> 00:35:59.800 went to a lot of homes, so that could have been maybe mister Burgess 406 00:36:00.000 --> 00:36:01.760 could have been maybe a second visit for aid. And I don't know. 407 00:36:02.239 --> 00:36:06.320 I would find it hard to believe that Harball would not go to his home, 408 00:36:06.719 --> 00:36:12.960 seeing his father was a great football player and a former Wolverine as well. 409 00:36:13.320 --> 00:36:15.400 But no, I'm more of a TRADITIONALI scandid and I think it is 410 00:36:15.440 --> 00:36:22.039 important and I don't you know, I know, Jeremy made a good point 411 00:36:22.079 --> 00:36:27.719 about you know what the house looks like and if they don't have but I 412 00:36:27.760 --> 00:36:32.719 think that, you know, coaches nowadays have to realize that everybody lives at 413 00:36:32.760 --> 00:36:39.199 a certain level, everybody has certain comfort zone in their own home. I 414 00:36:39.199 --> 00:36:44.440 think it's important for the coach to go and visit. I mean, geez, 415 00:36:44.519 --> 00:36:47.760 we get the Bachelor and the Bachelorette, they go to visit the homes 416 00:36:47.760 --> 00:36:54.320 of their last three or four dates or whatever that show shows. So I 417 00:36:54.360 --> 00:36:57.480 mean, you know, they want to see mom and dad, they want 418 00:36:57.519 --> 00:37:00.880 to see the brothers or sisters, and I think the football coaches have a 419 00:37:00.960 --> 00:37:07.639 right to do that. Now that being said, I've also been told that 420 00:37:07.760 --> 00:37:10.000 a lot of coaches don't like it anymore. It's too much wear and tear 421 00:37:10.079 --> 00:37:15.719 on them. I mean, Nick Saban left the business, Harboro left college 422 00:37:15.760 --> 00:37:19.239 coaching. I mean, I don't know if that had a lot to do 423 00:37:19.320 --> 00:37:22.360 with it, but that does take a toll on a head coach, no 424 00:37:22.519 --> 00:37:27.039 question about it, when you do the recruiting in all the different cities you 425 00:37:27.079 --> 00:37:30.920 know, around the US. So I could see it both ways, but 426 00:37:30.960 --> 00:37:37.079 I'm still old school. I'd rather have the coach common business. Okay, 427 00:37:37.199 --> 00:37:44.679 So Jim Harborough knew a recruiting trick right there. Oh, I'm sure Jim 428 00:37:44.719 --> 00:37:47.960 made a Hutchinson house called. Jim liked doing those and he was only a 429 00:37:49.000 --> 00:37:52.639 short car ride and Dad wasn't alumb anyway. One of the things I will 430 00:37:52.679 --> 00:38:00.480 say and I can speak about this is I have gone to let's say many 431 00:38:00.960 --> 00:38:06.920 Hurricane football games per se, and I can tell you there is a rule 432 00:38:07.519 --> 00:38:13.719 that as a photographer, I cannot, and I repeat, I cannot take 433 00:38:13.840 --> 00:38:21.079 pictures of any of the recruits that are there to see the game as they 434 00:38:21.119 --> 00:38:25.119 are being recruited. That is a rule. So I know they bring these 435 00:38:25.159 --> 00:38:31.480 guys to the different schools, and I think that's definitely important. Now, 436 00:38:31.519 --> 00:38:39.719 the one big difference between bringing somebody to the school and you going to their 437 00:38:39.800 --> 00:38:45.440 house is I think you get a lot more one on one time when they 438 00:38:45.480 --> 00:38:49.239 go to the house, whereas when you're bringing them to the school, you 439 00:38:49.280 --> 00:38:52.639 could be bringing a whole class or a whole group of people. So that 440 00:38:52.760 --> 00:38:59.559 might play your advantage because you might be bringing to other people that are big 441 00:38:59.639 --> 00:39:02.440 names that they want to play with too, and if they know that you're 442 00:39:02.480 --> 00:39:07.000 recruiting them, I think it's interesting. I think it can go both ways. 443 00:39:07.760 --> 00:39:14.199 I do think it's important for the recruit to go to the school and 444 00:39:14.320 --> 00:39:19.239 see what the facilities are like, what the on campus situation, if you're 445 00:39:19.239 --> 00:39:22.000 gonna live on campus or if you're gonna live off campus, what that's like. 446 00:39:22.119 --> 00:39:27.440 Because I think that all plays into who you are as a student and 447 00:39:27.480 --> 00:39:30.679 who you are on the field, because if you're not happy with your surroundings, 448 00:39:31.039 --> 00:39:35.679 it's going to come forth on the field as well. So I think 449 00:39:35.719 --> 00:39:39.880 that is very important. I think it's also important that when a coach goes 450 00:39:39.960 --> 00:39:45.239 to you, that's the head coach, and normally I don't I can't speak 451 00:39:45.280 --> 00:39:49.639 for experience. I don't know if more of the coaches are there too, 452 00:39:50.159 --> 00:39:52.519 But if you're a quarterback, and is it just the head coach coming or 453 00:39:52.599 --> 00:39:57.360 is the quarterbacks coaches the offensive like, is it all of them? Because 454 00:39:57.800 --> 00:40:00.840 you're not always gonna work just one one with the head coach, let's face 455 00:40:00.880 --> 00:40:05.039 it, You're gonna have more of a relationship with some of the other coaches. 456 00:40:05.280 --> 00:40:08.800 And I think that's what's really important, because I think, yes, 457 00:40:08.960 --> 00:40:12.800 we all want to play for a big name. Oh it's great to be 458 00:40:12.840 --> 00:40:17.199 playing for this person or this person and this big school or whatnot. But 459 00:40:17.280 --> 00:40:22.159 I think part of it also is surrounding around you. But that's just my 460 00:40:22.280 --> 00:40:27.320 personal opinion. And I don't get paid millions of dollars And I never did 461 00:40:27.360 --> 00:40:30.280 to go to college or anything. I mean, I went to college, 462 00:40:30.400 --> 00:40:36.159 but that's because I paid, not because somebody else paid me. So any 463 00:40:36.199 --> 00:40:42.920 other thoughts, feedback comments, No, I think it's time to go to 464 00:40:43.840 --> 00:40:49.719 my town. My favorite segment. Let's see. Let us start with Ralph 465 00:40:49.800 --> 00:40:59.360 tonight, you're on mute. Ralph, sorry about that. I had some 466 00:40:59.599 --> 00:41:02.280 merchant vehicles going past my apartment here, so that's why I put it on 467 00:41:02.400 --> 00:41:08.360 mute. Anyway, we have the NCAA tournament here. I'm very pleased that 468 00:41:08.440 --> 00:41:14.559 Pittsburgh can host that. But what I'm not happy with is, and I 469 00:41:14.639 --> 00:41:16.239 said this to the mayor, and I happen to be friends with the mayor, 470 00:41:16.880 --> 00:41:22.280 that you need to clean the city up for this tournament, and they 471 00:41:22.320 --> 00:41:25.159 did nothing to clean it up. There is nothing for people to eat at 472 00:41:25.320 --> 00:41:30.360 like a diner kind of setting. There's not even a McDonald's in downtown Pittsburgh 473 00:41:30.400 --> 00:41:34.599 anymore. So we have three diners in the Strip District, which isn't far 474 00:41:34.639 --> 00:41:37.920 from downtown. But if you're staying at one of the downtown hotels, you 475 00:41:37.960 --> 00:41:42.119 want to walk close by, and you're staying near the PPG Paints Arena, 476 00:41:42.599 --> 00:41:45.320 and you want to go somewhere and have breakfast in the morning, and you 477 00:41:45.320 --> 00:41:49.920 don't want to pay forty dollars for the buffet there or whatever they charge at 478 00:41:49.920 --> 00:41:53.159 some of these hotel restaurants, and you want to go somewhere to a diner, 479 00:41:53.840 --> 00:41:59.000 you literally have to take uber or whatever. And I brought this up 480 00:41:59.039 --> 00:42:02.119 to the city's attention and numerous times that you need to clean the city up. 481 00:42:02.599 --> 00:42:06.920 When they see tents and with homeless people in him and stuff, that's 482 00:42:06.920 --> 00:42:12.400 a disgrace. And you know, there's already complaints being lodged by people staying 483 00:42:12.440 --> 00:42:15.599 in town for this tournament about where city looks. And I think it's a 484 00:42:15.639 --> 00:42:19.599 disgrace, and I think the mayort will be ashamed of himself. I think 485 00:42:19.599 --> 00:42:23.000 he ought to step down because I think that this is sad. You know, 486 00:42:23.000 --> 00:42:27.559 we have the NFL Draft coming in twenty twenty six, I believe, 487 00:42:28.360 --> 00:42:32.079 so we better really get our city cleaned up for that. And that's that's 488 00:42:32.159 --> 00:42:37.880 the way that that is. Today. And then Rowdy Zealous or whatever his 489 00:42:38.000 --> 00:42:43.039 name is, finally made his way back into the Pirate lineup. He played 490 00:42:43.039 --> 00:42:47.320 today. So I had hit some hits against Toronto and even though the Pirates 491 00:42:47.360 --> 00:42:52.000 lost street to two and the Penguins, well, we have an amusement park 492 00:42:52.000 --> 00:42:54.440 here called Kenny Wood and they have a roller coaster there with says Penguins on 493 00:42:54.519 --> 00:42:59.079 it. That's that's the way the season has gone for the Pittsburgh Penguins. 494 00:42:59.800 --> 00:43:05.360 And the Steelers are about to make or have already have some of the trade 495 00:43:05.400 --> 00:43:13.559 made for Terry Terry mcclavin there from my Washington Redskins wide receiver. We're gonna 496 00:43:13.559 --> 00:43:19.320 give him a second, five and seventh round pick and we're getting Terry mcclevin 497 00:43:19.360 --> 00:43:24.280 and we're getting their seventh round pick. So Omark conn the con Man will 498 00:43:24.320 --> 00:43:29.440 be stacking up picks again while the draft goes on, even though we lost 499 00:43:29.440 --> 00:43:36.880 some. And that's my town, will what's happening in your town? So 500 00:43:37.000 --> 00:43:44.159 in my town we held Marchmendus the first round. Today You and c beat 501 00:43:44.880 --> 00:43:51.880 number sixteen, Wagner number nine, Michigan State beat number eight Mississippi State, 502 00:43:52.599 --> 00:44:00.119 and Texas beat Colorado State. And the night game is in Charlie, Tennessee 503 00:44:00.280 --> 00:44:07.920 versus Saint Peter's and it will continue on Saturday. Also in Charlotte, it 504 00:44:07.960 --> 00:44:17.039 was announced, I think yesterday that they will be hosting an international friendly for 505 00:44:17.280 --> 00:44:23.920 club soccer between two European powerhouses. I'm not gonna say, like they're well 506 00:44:23.960 --> 00:44:30.519 known Chelsea FC versus Real Madrid f C, and those normally drawing a lot 507 00:44:30.559 --> 00:44:35.039 of fans. So to get two of the most famous clubs in worlds in 508 00:44:35.320 --> 00:44:38.880 soccer history, that's huge for the city of Charlotte. So yeah, I 509 00:44:39.039 --> 00:44:49.039 love seeing that and that's my time, Okay, mister George. Well, 510 00:44:49.079 --> 00:44:52.639 I know we've talked about this fella before on some other shows of ours, 511 00:44:52.679 --> 00:45:00.159 but my town is again Detroit. We are very concerned about a man who 512 00:45:00.000 --> 00:45:04.039 who was getting millions and millions of dollars to play shortstop here and you guys 513 00:45:04.079 --> 00:45:10.079 know who I mean. Former Chicago CoV Hobveyer Bias barely hitting one hundred during 514 00:45:12.119 --> 00:45:17.320 spring training in Lakeland, where the Tigers train. And it's a situation where 515 00:45:17.800 --> 00:45:23.519 the Tigers are kind of handicapped because they don't have right now in their pipeline 516 00:45:24.519 --> 00:45:30.480 a kid ready, I mean, Kriedler has got a possibility. There's also 517 00:45:30.960 --> 00:45:38.440 another couple other shortstop in the Tigers farm system. But Bias was supposedly going 518 00:45:38.519 --> 00:45:44.760 to report to camp with a new attitude and some new life to his bat. 519 00:45:44.800 --> 00:45:51.320 But I'm telling you it doesn't look good right now. The Tigers lost 520 00:45:51.360 --> 00:45:54.000 today and they played their pretty much their starting lineup. They lost to the 521 00:45:54.039 --> 00:45:58.719 Mets, but they've had a really good pre season that detried Tigers down in 522 00:45:58.760 --> 00:46:01.880 Lakeland, as is just like, oh my gosh, I mean, where 523 00:46:01.920 --> 00:46:07.239 can you go with this guy? He's fallen off drastically in the year since 524 00:46:07.280 --> 00:46:13.840 Detroit obtained him and since he was the MVP of the National League who he's 525 00:46:13.880 --> 00:46:19.119 a finalist, I mean with the Cubs at one time, but he finished 526 00:46:19.119 --> 00:46:23.639 the last season with a two sixty seven OBP, which is the worst, 527 00:46:24.159 --> 00:46:31.159 the worst among all qualified hitters. So it's a situation where I don't know 528 00:46:31.199 --> 00:46:37.280 what's going on with this guy. He is just not doing justice to that 529 00:46:37.400 --> 00:46:42.440 huge contract the Tigers are given him. But like I said earlier, it's 530 00:46:42.480 --> 00:46:47.079 a situation where they're going to try to still ride the rapids with him and 531 00:46:47.159 --> 00:46:52.960 try to make sure that he realizes there are coaches that can help him, 532 00:46:52.760 --> 00:46:59.480 video coaches. I don't know what the situation is with getting him to major 533 00:46:59.519 --> 00:47:02.920 league level hitting, but it's just sad what's happened so far, and there's 534 00:47:02.960 --> 00:47:07.440 always hope maybe something will happen in the regular season and start him off with 535 00:47:07.519 --> 00:47:14.639 a better ops. But he's he's really really hit the skids since the Tigers 536 00:47:14.719 --> 00:47:19.239 signed him. So that's my story. Opening days just round the corner. 537 00:47:19.800 --> 00:47:22.719 Tigers opened up in Chicago against the White Sox and then they got to go 538 00:47:22.760 --> 00:47:27.360 to New York to play the Mets. It's going to be a bit of 539 00:47:27.360 --> 00:47:30.920 a stretch for the Tigers to open up winning ways. But we'll see what 540 00:47:30.960 --> 00:47:36.920 happens and hopefully Bias will be able to somehow get out of this funk. 541 00:47:37.760 --> 00:47:42.880 So George James is agreeing with you. You called it right. Georgeavier is 542 00:47:42.920 --> 00:47:59.000 looking like a boat anchor from the Yeah, wow, thanks James smoking Jeremy 543 00:47:59.039 --> 00:48:07.360 b Yeah, yeah, what's your my town? Cam Sutton. Yesterday in 544 00:48:07.400 --> 00:48:10.480 the morning, the news broke that warrant was issued for his arrest. Back 545 00:48:10.519 --> 00:48:19.239 on March seventh, he got into an argument with his girlfriend h a used 546 00:48:19.280 --> 00:48:23.599 of attentive strangulation, and rumors are he threw her out the window of the 547 00:48:23.639 --> 00:48:28.920 apartment. Some people say of his house. Some people say it was a 548 00:48:28.960 --> 00:48:31.280 third story. Somebody says that he only has a single story. Else. 549 00:48:31.800 --> 00:48:37.719 We don't know the details of it. Let's not speculate. All we know 550 00:48:37.920 --> 00:48:43.280 is that his vehicle is last seen seen speeding away from the scene on March 551 00:48:43.280 --> 00:48:46.000 seventh, and he hasn't been found since, and that does not bode well. 552 00:48:47.360 --> 00:48:53.440 What does bode well in the team organization? Since as soon as the 553 00:48:53.480 --> 00:48:59.239 authorities released the information, they went out there, they did their public statement, 554 00:48:59.679 --> 00:49:02.800 and they found the clause, they are able to void that ten point 555 00:49:02.920 --> 00:49:07.079 five guaranteed contract. The only thing they're on the hook for is all the 556 00:49:07.079 --> 00:49:10.519 little bonuses that he won't get because he won't be at practice, he won't 557 00:49:10.519 --> 00:49:14.440 be showing up for roster day, he won't be doing any of that. 558 00:49:15.480 --> 00:49:19.960 So that's technically going to be twelve point three million dollars they don't have to 559 00:49:20.000 --> 00:49:23.559 spend for somebody that doesn't deserve a dime as far as I'm concerned, because 560 00:49:23.559 --> 00:49:29.400 if you touch a woman out of anger like that, you're not a man. 561 00:49:29.840 --> 00:49:39.119 Your man card has been revoked. I agree, really sad Okay, 562 00:49:39.920 --> 00:49:47.000 the special number for tonight is fifty four, And you ask why do I 563 00:49:47.039 --> 00:49:54.480 bring up that number. No school has played in more NC two A tournaments 564 00:49:54.559 --> 00:50:02.679 and bowl games than Wisconsin in the past thirty years. Number fifty four in 565 00:50:02.960 --> 00:50:10.280 bowl games and two A tournaments. Kudos to Wisconsin because it's not normally the 566 00:50:10.320 --> 00:50:15.320 school that you would think that would be that many tournament in the tournament or 567 00:50:15.320 --> 00:50:20.400 that many bowl games, but kudos to them, good luck to them in 568 00:50:20.480 --> 00:50:23.159 the tournament, good luck to Markette, and good luck to all the Florida 569 00:50:23.239 --> 00:50:31.159 schools. That fifty four. That is my number for tonight. So with 570 00:50:31.280 --> 00:50:35.800 that being said, thank you guys. I'm going to let everybody go around 571 00:50:35.800 --> 00:50:38.360 the room and tell everybody how they can get a hold of you, mister 572 00:50:38.519 --> 00:50:43.440 Will.

I've been to 603 00:53:25.440 --> 00:53:31.559 the Horseshoe, I've been to I've been to Illinois Wisconsin football does it right? 604 00:53:31.800 --> 00:53:37.360 I want out of all of out of all the football games I've in 605 00:53:37.440 --> 00:53:43.440 football stadiums i've been to, I want to say it ranks that would probably 606 00:53:43.440 --> 00:53:47.320 be number one.

I'll never forget 608 00:53:53.280 --> 00:53:59.199 the time I took Scott Morgan roth his first one and he was covering it 609 00:53:59.239 --> 00:54:02.079 and he was sitting up in the press box and between the third and fourth 610 00:54:02.800 --> 00:54:07.679 quarter is the famous round. The whole stadium was rocking. He thought it 611 00:54:07.719 --> 00:54:15.119 was he thought it was an earthquake. He was like, it was crazy. 612 00:54:15.199 --> 00:54:16.920 So, yes, Camp Randall's a great place to watch a game. 613 00:54:17.000 --> 00:54:21.480 I agree, Thank you, thank you, thank you. James.
